#prequel to family photos
Text
All kinds of wonderful ideas about rdr3 being about Jack, Sadie, Charles, etc etc but I NEED it to be a prequel to rdr2. I want to see a young and wild Hosea and Dutch his househusband. I want to see twink Arthur and his young romance with Mary. I want to see Susan serving cunt. (She's already serving cunt in rdr2 but I can't stop thinking about that photo of hers.) I want to see John being a stinky little horror. It is a physical need at this point. We saw how the family fall apart, let us see how it came together in the first place.

thoughts on sasusaku + sarada and their...family
Will start this out by stating that this is a combination of observation and analysis so take it with a grain of salt.
(If you like sasusaku/ss, this ain't for you so please do yourself a favor and scroll away.)
naruhina + boruto version.
This is definitely the most fucked up thing to ever come in fruition in the sequel and they weren't even justified in Gaiden. LMAO. 
Diving into this family's issue at hand, it's pretty much about Sasuke being an absent father and being away from his family for more than a decade--not to mention that Sasuke is able to freaking report to the Hokage but not even pay a visit to his family.
Gaiden was pretty much good at covering the topic already but let's break down how dysfunctional it is:
The lack of evidence signified about Sasuke and Sakura being married. We see pictures of Sakura and Sarada at important moments of her life but not a single wedding photo. Sarada pretty much asking Sakura if she's really Sasuke's wife is valid because she won't doubt from the beginning if there was telltale evidence supporting that information. There isn't.
The "family" photo. Sasuke was roughly seventeen in that photo, not to mention it's next to Sakura who is in her 30s at that point. Isn't it strange? No updated photo since they got married? What's fucked up is that she had to cover up the rest of Taka behind that photo. That raised more questions, specifically, Sarada asking who those people are and who is the one wearing glasses like she does.
And, yeah. The glasses thing. It was a simple yes or no question. Sakura saying that she doesn't know is inane because they had spent time as Team 7 in the past, not to mention the sporadic moment they see each other (Orochimaru's hideout, that bridge where she tried to kill him but failed), and during the war. I don't know where she's looking but Sasuke hasn't worn glasses at all and if she can't answer that simple question, that says more about her. Anyway, that fed the idea that she doesn't know a single thing about her husband at all and Sarada notices this. Naruto who was able to say information about Sasuke unprompted, pretty much what Sarada needed to hear--yeah, I know. Shocker.
Sasuke's first meeting with Sarada. I've seen enough takes about him being an absent father. I'm not disagreeing with that. However, I present another perspective: Sasuke doesn't even know what his daughter looks like even though it's been shown that he was in Konoha at the time that Naruto is already Hokage (which would mean Sarada would be around seven or eight years old) and Sakura is in that same room, too. You're telling me that she couldn't have at least fucking introduce Sarada and Sasuke to each other? It's easy to shift the blame to the absent father because he simply isn't there but when Sakura, who knows the mission and with uncertainties on its duration, couldn't have made the initiative to simply give the kid an assurance that yeah, this is your dad, he exists and to Sasuke, she's Sarada and she's seven and she wears glasses. If making them meet is too much, at least a fucking photo would suffice it. But no. Nothing of the sort coming from Sakura. Why? Because she's okay with Sasuke being absent. She doesn't see any issue with it.
Communication. This is a controversial take and I will keep it simple. If Naruto and Sasuke can communicate and contact each other, what's stopping Sakura from reaching out to Sasuke? Isn't she his wife? She could literally write her own letter and send it alongside Naruto's but no efforts had been made on that. This is the benefit of the doubt but if Sakura at least reached out, then it's up to Sasuke to either intentionally ignore that or respond to her. My point here is initiative--it has been shown time and time again that she can do that, we've seen instances of it in the prequel. Did she stop because she finally got what she wants and is content with whatever crumbs she could hold on to? 
Sarada's birth. The sketchiest of them all. Some people wrote excellent analysis on this so please do check them out. My two cents on this is Orochimaru discussing cloning to Naruto and pretty much piquing Sarada's curiosity about the concept (which later on led to DNA testing as courtesy of Suigetsu). Sasuke pretty much reacted this way:
Tumblr media
Usually, ellipsis in media is used when the character is pondering/thinking about something. It also represents speechlessness or a pause. Now tell me, if Sarada's birth isn't sketchy and was in some sort of way, normal, why did Sasuke casted that wayward side glance? The entirety of Gaiden as well as this page was meant to make the readers question Sarada's conception. For a backstory, Kishimoto sure left more questions than answers.
Everything is unconventional like Sakura not keeping the umbilical cord and Karin has it instead, no records at Konoha Hospital when Sakura works there and can coordinate with the proper department/s to handle paperworks, traveling while pregnant (ma'am you are a medic-nin, make it make sense), etc. I will leave this as it is, again, it has been discussed extensively by various blogs here.
In conclusion, even in adulthood, Naruto and Sasuke knows each other best. They become expert parents (at least) around each other's kids. In a fucked up way, I think it's a silent cry for help aka look I'm good with your kid and we could've been good parents together but we were forced into these marriages.
Sasusaku ended up canon but it still doesn't change the fact that Sakura knows little to nothing about Sasuke to the point that Sarada picked up on that and even threw it at her face. At the end of the day, Naruto remained as the one and only that knows Sasuke's heart best.

i got you | ethan landry
Tumblr media
notes: feeling a bit off today so i might not be able to update the bloodlines / family ties prequel fic so here's slightly tipsy reader and dork ethan
It was the twins' birthday today, and the lot of them decided to go all out.
Like, all out.
Sam had rented some small party center a block or two away from Blackmore, and if you squinted close enough, you could see the water from there.
But the only thing more dangerous than a party full of collective teenagers were drunk teenagers not even yet the age of 21.
So when she, Chad, Mindy, and Tara all posed for photos in the massive photo booth, the four of them were a mess.
She had a top hat and a fake mustache on, held bridal style in Chad's arms as they ran out, with him spinning her around as Sam got a video.
The same wasn't said for her boyfriend, which, despite knowing the group for a length of time, still held a shy persona.
“Landry!” Chad called out, walking over to his roommate with his girlfriend in his hands, “You should come pick up your girlfriend! 'S said she misses you!”
Ethan gave an awkward smile as Chad placed (y/n) is his arms, “But I'm still here,” He muttered, before walking off to a quieter place that split off from the loud party ambiance.
“Eth...” She mumbled, looking up at him as her head rested on his lap; she looked deeply into each little detail of his facial features: the little wrinkles he get around his eyes when he'd smile, the way his nose would scrunch up a little while doing calculus homework.
“You still love me, right?”
The question had caught him off guard, as it was usually him asking her stupid questions about video game trivia randomly.
“Of course,” He said, brushing a strand of hair out of her face, “Why wouldn't I?”
She had started getting teary eyed as she sat up, resting her head on his chest; his hand instinctively going to stroke her hair.
“Because in Woodsboro,” She began, watching as Mindy and Chad were doing chicken fights with Anika and Tara, “I went a whole five months believing Amber had loved me.”
The tears started coming down as she fiddled with her sweater sleeve, “Five months, and I thought we had it all. We were gonna become film students after graduation.” She tried wiping away at her tears, but they kept on coming, “Five whole months of believing her bullshit just for her to kill my best friend."
“That was Wes, right?” He asked, trying to wipe away her tears as they fell, holding her close.
“She didn't even care if I would survive her fucking ‘act three.’” She took a deep breath in, trying to prevent any more sobs to escape her, “I thought she loved me- and what if Ghostface comes back?”
(y/n) sounded extremely scared, like she had had enough of last year's killings that she couldn't handle another.
“What if he comes back and is successful this time? I don't wanna lose my friends, I don't wanna lose you.”
“You won't lose me.” Ethan had said, placing her cheek in his hand, “You're not going to lose me. I'll stop that Casper shit bag before he gets to you.”
“You will?”
“Promise. I've got you.”
(ahhhh this was kinda shit but ohhhh if reader had known)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Can you do me a favor?” Harry says, breaking the morning silence.
“Uhm, yea, sure, what is it?” You ask. Unless Harry asked you for something crazy you’d do pretty much anything he said right now. Two days ago, he joined your relationship and you, Harry, Mitch, and Sarah had your first official date together. Yesterday you all spent the day out on the water enjoying the beautiful Italian views. The night ended back in your shared bed, you and Harry having sex for the first time while Mitch and Sarah reconnected right next to you.
So yea, you were pretty blissed out and content, happy to please your boyfriends and girlfriend however they want.
You’ve all been awake for a little while, hanging out in bed and switching cuddle partners every now and then. You’re currently in between Mitch and Sarah with Harry on Sarah’s other side. He’d picked up his phone a few minutes ago, seeing a screen full of notifications and he knew he had to peek at what was happening, just to make sure nothing was wrong. Which has led to him asking you a favor.
“Can you not go on social media today?” He asks you.
“Sure,” you answer quickly. That was an easy request. You aren’t even sure where your phone is to be honest. You’re more than happy to exist in your little happy bubble, but still, you’re curious about his request. “Can I ask why you want me offline today?”
“Yea the uh, the pap photos from yesterday have been posted.”
“Oh gosh, what, are they bad? Was it a terrible angle and I look awful? Did they like, photoshop someone else’s face on me or something?”
“No, love,” he answers with a laugh. “Nothing like that. It’s just that this is new and I’m not sure how people are going to respond yet. I want to make sure you don’t stumble across something nasty.”
“Do you think people are going to be negative?” Sarah asks, worried about the idea of you two receiving backlash.
“I never know what to think,” he replies while scrolling through his phone. “But I will say that everything seems positive so far. Media outlets are confused, wondering who this ‘mystery woman’ is. Fans are much better detectives. They’ve already posted some videos of you at my shows.”
“Can I see?” Mitch asks and takes the phone Harry hands him. After a moment he says, “Oh this is good. The people who were near you at the concerts are all saying how nice and chill you were. There’re a few comments saying you seem to follow Harry’s treat people with kindness motto, that’s like the best compliment his fans can give.”
You smile at that, remembering all the moments you got to share with Harry’s fans during his shows. You realize that you probably won’t be able to do that again in the future, now that you’re officially known as Harry’s new girl, but you hope you’ll still be able to interact with the fans in some way.
“Okay, phones away,” Sarah says, and Mitch immediately locks the phone and hands it back to Harry.
“What’s the plan for today?” Sarah then asks.
“Can we stay here and go swimming?” you ask. “I’ve been taking Ryan in the pool a lot but I don’t get to actually swim, you know?”
“Sounds good to me,” Harry replies as the other two nod in agreement. “How is Ryan?” he asks, and you fill them in on the boy you nanny as you all get ready.
The four of you spend that day and the next relaxing at the private villa. It isn’t until dinner of the second evening that Harry decides it’s time to pop the bubble and see what people are saying online.
You’re all sitting at the table outside and he explains that no news is good news, that his publicist would have called if there was anything truly bad being said. He pulls out his phone and starts to scroll. When he doesn’t say anything for the first minute you start to get anxious but finally he begins to smile.
“It’s good?” Sarah asks.
“It’s- Yea. It’s really good. I mean, I hoped this would be the reaction, but I’m used to getting so much negativity that I didn’t think it would actually be like this. I mean there’s a couple of bad comments but for the most part it’s, God, it’s really good.” Harry says this with a smile so big his dimples are showing. Suddenly your insecurities and fears vanish, replaced by joy for your boyfriend.
His words and obvious relief make you remember all that he’s been through with the public. He’s suffered years of lies and abuse from fans and media alike, and he’s probably been more worried than anyone else the past few days even if he wasn’t showing it.
You move to sit in his lap, kissing him gently then asking, “Can you read us some comments?”
Harry complies happily, one arm wrapped around you as he tells you all what people are saying.
There are hundreds of comments saying how cute and happy you two look together. Some people have negative things to say about you, but even seeing them say that you’re not pretty, or too plain, or a total nobody can’t shake you. It doesn’t matter what they think, not really. It matters what Harry and Sarah and Mitch think. And since they respond with compliments to contradict every negative comment you’re feeling pretty good.
There’s a feeling of celebration in the air and you realize that you were all more worried about the feedback than you thought. But seeing so much positivity makes you feel really happy. You didn’t necessarily need the validation but having that rather than having people hate your relationship with Harry uncomplicates things a little bit. A four-person relationship is a lot to manage and needing to make the public happy would’ve added a strain that you all simply did not want to deal with.
Over the next few months people spot you and Harry together a few times both in England and in the US. Every time new pictures drop the fans get so excited and comment about how happy they are for you and Harry.
On a few occasions all four of you are spotted together. As always the fans have a number of theories about that and you’re all relieved to see the most common one is that you must be friends with Mitch and Sarah, and they introduced you and Harry.
You’re happy that they came to this conclusion naturally, since that’s what you always hoped the fans would think. The downside of course is that you have to distance yourself from Mitch and Sarah when you’re in public. You can somewhat get away with being close to Sarah since people seem to love that you two are “besties”. However, you and Mitch are extremely careful not to get too close, knowing that tabloids and gossip columns would jump on an opportunity to claim drama with Harry’s relationship.
For the most part, this secrecy is just a part of life. In fact, none of you really want any of your personal lives shared with the public if you can help it. But sometimes it does get difficult not being able to show each member of your relationship the same level of love and attention.
One of the biggest examples of that is the Grammy Awards in 2024. Harry’s up for an award and was asked to give a performance as well. The four of you get ready together and hype each other up throughout the day while making sure to not be too obvious in front of the stylists in the room.
When everyone is ready and about to get in the cars Harry turns to you and says, “You look absolutely beautiful my love.” He leans down and presses a kiss to your lips. When you break apart you’re blushing, aware of Anthony taking pictures of the moment.
“Thank you,” you finally reply. “You look gorgeous as well.” You lean together for another kiss and after a moment you pull away laughing and swatting at Harry as he gently tickles your sides.
You glance over to Sarah and Mitch standing together in another part of the room. There’s a mixture of emotions on their faces and you know them well enough by this point to figure out what they’re feeling with just a look. First is a look of adoration since they simply adore and love both you and Harry. But under that is concern? No. Not concern. Jealousy.
They want to be a part of that moment. Not for any sort of external praise or fame, but because they want to share every part of life all together as a foursome.
These feelings continue throughout the entire day. They want to be by Harry’s side with you as you support him down the red carpet. When you meet them all backstage after the performance they wish that they could share a kiss with you like Harry does. And when Harry wins in his category they want to celebrate with him instead of cheering him on from a separate table in the back of the room.
For someone who has no prior relationship experience before this, you are very good at figuring out what your boyfriends and girlfriend need at any given moment. And that night Mitch and Sarah need to be reassured that they’re as much a part of the relationship as you and Harry.
After finally leaving the afterparty that management forced you and Harry to attend you rush home hoping Mitch and Sarah will still be up. You find them both cuddled on the couch in sweats and immediately realize how uncomfortable your dress is.
Without hesitation you remove your dress, drop it on the floor, and pick up Sarah’s oversized sweater from a nearby chair. You slide it on, and it reaches mid-thigh, so you decide you’re clothed enough. You snuggle in between Mitch and Sarah and Harry joins the cuddle session on the couch a moment later. Things stay innocent for the remainder of the movie that’s playing and then you decide to show the others just how much you love them.
You first focus on Mitch and Sarah, pleasing them and showering them with care and adoration. Then the three of you turn to Harry and congratulate him on another Grammy win in a way that only the three of you are allowed to do.
After that instance the four of you have a conversation about what everyone was feeling that night. From day one you all knew that open communication is key and so over breakfast you hash out all the emotions and come up with a solution to make sure no one is ever feeling left out.
Things aren’t always easy for you and Harry either. While the general public’s reaction to you and him dating is mostly positive, there are negative comments and sometimes things can spiral out of control.
One time your cousin Matt is visiting during a week when Harry happens to be away for work. Pictures of you and Matt start to surface and within hours the cheating rumors begin. At first it doesn’t bother you as it’s honestly kind of expected, but people started to get downright nasty. Finally, you post a story on Instagram, introducing Matt as your cousin in a borderline passive aggressive manner. Most people back off after that, but some don’t believe you. From that moment you know there’s a subsection of fans that will never like you, but you know it’s a small group, so you let it slide.
There are also people who don’t like you simply because you’re dating Harry Styles. They stayed in the background when those first pictures were posted, thinking you’d be gone pretty quickly. But when they realized you were sticking around they started to post nasty comments. It’s mostly just typical mean girl stuff, saying you’re too plain, or fat, or short, or any judgmental thing they can think of even if it couldn’t be farther from the truth.
You don’t mind these comments too much, knowing they’re made mostly out of jealousy. And nights when they surface tend to end in Sarah, Mitch, and Harry showering you in compliments and worshipping your body so really the internet trolls are doing you a favor.
You know you’re never going to win over everyone so having a majority of people happy for you and Harry makes you feel content. But at the end of the day, what they think doesn’t matter. Because you have the most wonderful boyfriends and girlfriend to share life with, and that makes you the luckiest person alive.

Pictures of you
Pairing : John “ Soap ” MacTavish x F!Reader Side of Simon "Ghost" Riley x Mini MacTavish
Summary : The hallway of MacTavish house is dotted with family photos. But there is one that is your favourite. Part 2 of Hello There
This is following the Ghost timeline of the Mini Verse.
Part of “ Mini MacTavish verse” , The character is really flatmate of Mini which I gave her the name “Emma” in other fic, but here you can place any name you want here in this fic.
Warning : M rated, passing hint of smut time, flirting. Swearing.
Character of Mini MacTavish is from @saltofmercury fic  “The Favorite MacTavish” ” which she graciously let me borrow and write bit more expanded universe. Please go read her wonderful story to get bit of background
 “masterlist” for more prequel to this Mini MacTavish expanded 
Tumblr media
“What ye doing still up bonnie?” You jumped a bit when you heard the husky voice of Johnny from top of the staircase. His strong Scottish accent seeping through with his half asleep mind. 
“Johnny, you scared me.” Putting your hand over your chest, trying to calm your rapid beating heart. If you were half sleepy before from pacing up and down the corridor, now you are sure you are fully awake from his unexpected appearance. “Sorry. I heard noises so I thought I should check up on you. But you weren’t in your room.” he apologises as he slowly makes his way down the staircase. “I couldn’t sleep.” Stifling a yawn as you reply, Soap chuckled. “Doesn’t look like it.” Your body was tired, but mentally you were still running high from all the residue excitement from Simon and Mini’s wedding. 
While the rest of the Riley family stayed on bit longer at the MacTavish farm for extended holiday, you and Soap had returned to London for work. “Have fun with Johnny!!” Mini winked at you as they sent you off at the airport. That’s when it hit you, for the first time ever, you and Soap will be alone in the house. Without the Mini and Simon hovering around, or having to babysit the Twins. Just the two of you.
He had volunteered to travel back with you when you were helping Mini to organise the wedding and everyone’s flight.
“My duty as the best man is to make sure the maid of honour makes it back home safely.” He winks at you with one of his signature cheeky smiles.
You can see his figure a bit more clearly as he tries to walk around all the packing boxes scattered along the corridor. Mini and Simon had found a new house nearby to move into after the wedding. You decided it might be time for you to move out as well. You don’t want to overstay your welcome. Besides, the reason why you moved in was to help out looking after the twins when Mini and Simon were going through the period of rift before reconciliation. What you didn’t expect as Soap was almost half pleading and half jokingly asking you to stay.
“Who is going to clean and look after the house for me while I am away on duty?” He pouted
You shot him an unimpressive look. “Get a cleaner.” 
“Please bonnie. You know how I am with someone I don’t know snooping around the house.” grasping both of your shoulders with his callous hand, desperation sipping through his voice. All the while Mini looked on with a hint of amusement. You turned to face your friend, she just shrugged, letting you make the final decision. In the end you decided to stay on. You just couldn’t resist those damn baby blue eyes. Pleading you like a poor kicked puppy.You didn’t understand why he was so eager for you to stay on. Even promising you the free rent offer before Mini and you first move in still stands. 
After his admission during the wedding? Everything becomes clear. 
This man is absolutely besotted with you. 
Your face starts burning when you realise he is topless and only wearing his lounge pants. You swallowed hard. Get a grip!! You try to tell yourself. It’s not the first time you saw him half naked. You have seen him topless so many times. And each time you cannot stop yourself from ogling at his beautiful chisel chest and abdomen muscles. The corded arms that have circled your waist when you two were sharing the dance with the newly wedded couple. “So you just walk up and down the hallway when you can’t sleep?” Soap mused.
“Trying to tire myself out. Besides, I am looking at the photos.”
Photos you pass by everyday. The hallway is dotted with MacTavish family photos. From photos of Mini and a Pre-teen Soap holding his baby sister for the first time, to Mini’s university graduation photos, first photos of the Riley twins when they were still in ICU. and hiding in the corner, the newly printed photo of Riley family. Simon reluctantly ( as Mini said, he was too shy to admit he was embarrassed) agreed to take a family photo. Mini showing her brilliant smile (MacTavish trait? You wondered. Noticing the similarity between the two siblings when they smile.) The twins both had their hands reaching out towards the side, being distracted by their uncle Soap , trying to make them focus on the camera, and Simon, looking down at Mini, the softness he only shows when he is totally focused on his wife. You love looking at all these photos, the love of family. Give you that warm fuzzy feeling when you are feeling down or stressed and tired from work. Or missing your own family, who is living far away. 
and you always land your sight on the photos right at the end of the wall. Your favourite out of all. A photo of young John Campbell MacTavish.
In his SAS No.2 dress uniform, with the unusual serious expression. Piercing blue eyes as if he can see through you. 
Subconsciously, you have turned your head away from Soap, staring at the picture you had just thought of in your mind. Reaching out to touch the glass panel on the frame, pointing at the eyes.
“How did this happen?” 
“Badge of honour. Or you can say damn good luck from the first deployment.” He reaches out and guides your hand towards his left eyes. You can just feel the slight bump of the scar, but it has faded over time. 
Closing his eyes, you can feel him shiver slightly as you run your fingers delicately down the length of the scar.  “And this one?” you always notice the little tiny patch around his chin where the beard wouldn’t grow.
“Believe it or not. I have Mini to blame for that.” He chuckled. “Was teaching her how to use a combat knife, and I totally underestimated her swiftness, I dodge out of the way just in time.” Eyes drifting down towards his chest, towards the round bullet wound scar close to his heart.
“..... Was this …” hovering above it, not daring to touch it.  As if you are afraid it will provoke the wound. You remember the day you tried hard to comfort Mini, upon receiving the news Soap was critically injured and in coma.  From what she and Simon described later on, it was a damn miracle Soap managed to pull through. “Someone must have pulled his soul back into his ass that day.” Simon being Simon, showing the way he cares, with dry humour.
“Mini couldn’t stop crying that day.” You recalled. 
“Did you cry for me as well?” He leaned closer, with a slight smirk on his face. 
“You wish. I was more heart broken for Mini than for you.” You don’t want to stroke his ego. But in fact, other than feeling sad for your friend, you didn’t expect the news of his injury to hit you so hard. The moment you realise you have more feelings for him than just a crush. You care about him,a lot. Not just as your best friend’s brother. 
Sliding your hand lower towards his abdomen, there is a fresh looking scar, extending to the side of his waist. “Lass, if you go any lower than that. I am not sure if I can control myself.” He rested his head against your temple, voice dropped an octave, “ I promised you I will take you out for a date first before doing anything. And I intend to keep that promise.” 
You remembered what Mini first said about her brother. “My brother might be a man whore, but he is a very gentlemanly manwhore. He won’t make a move on you unless you say the word.” 
Oh the urge of having him right there and then was strong. And you gave into it.  Playing with the elastic waistband of his pants, you let out an airy reply into his ear, “What if I give you permission?” 
That opens a floodgate. He grabbed you by the waist, pulling you closer, you can already feel his hardened arousal as your body is flush against his. 
“You don’t know what you are getting yourself into.” “Oh I do know.”
Tumblr media
You opened your eyes, looking at the unfamiliar bedsheet. That’s right, you are in Johnny’s bed. Naked, and sore. A very good,satisfying sore, you might add.
But his side of the bed is empty. Still residue of warmth to it, so he must have gotten up not long ago. Propping yourself up into a sitting position trying to recall details from last night after he hauled you over his shoulder like a sack of rice and carried you upstairs, full of purpose.
He made sure you are well satisfied before taking care of his own urge and need. You never had anyone else before that being so caring and thoughtful. They always focus on themselves first, not even concerned if you enjoyed it or not.  He treats you like a queen, pouring all his love into every touch and kisses he showered onto you. 
Creaking of the door pulls you back from the memory from the night before, you saw Soap pushing the door open with his butt, with a tray of food and coffee and tea in his hands. “Morning bonnie. Had a good sleep?” “Well if someone didn’t keep me up so much last night, I might have?” you stuck your tongue out with a cheeky reply. 
“I didn’t hear you complain about it.” Chuckling as he moves closer to the bed and sets the tray in your lap, before pulling out the little tray legs on the side and making sure it is steady before letting go.
“Breakfast in bed? What a great service!” your eyes went wide with choices of food in front of you. 
“Consider this as our first date? Even though we are doing it in the wrong order.” he smiled sheepishly.
“Hey. I don’t mind. I was the one that said yes.” patting the space beside you, he slides into bed with you and joins in.
“I don’t know what you feel like this morning.. So..” waving his hand gesturing towards the tray, “ Um, I got tea and coffee, some muffins, pancakes, fruits…oh, if you want cereal, I’ll go grab it from downstairs.” 
Is he flustering? Gone was that confident man from last night, now he’s a shy boy trying to impress his date with great effort. 
“Thank you Johnny.” You lean into his shoulder. You are quite touched with his thoughtfulness. You don’t want to admit it but you are falling for him even harder now.
“When are you leaving?” You asked while taking a sip of coffee. “Tonight.” putting his muffin on the tray, he smiled down at you sadly. The pang of sorrow hits you. 
Is this what Mini feels every time Simon leaves for work? How you hate that feeling. You don’t know how she endured it time and time again. You often see her sobbing silently, after putting the twins to bed, missing her love and not knowing when he will return. IF he will return.
Now you know how she feels.
“When will you be back?” you look down at the mug of coffee in your hand. Whispering. 
“Few months. Hey. hey, look at me."He lifts your head up gently by your chin, “ Don’t cry. I’ll keep in contact in between, ya?” you didn’t even realise you were crying until he started wiping your tears away with his thumb, caressing your cheek gently. Leaning down, giving you a soft kiss and leaning his head against yours, “Besides, I need to check up on you every now and then to see the house has been burnt down.” 
You let out a sobbing laugh. Trust him to lighten up the atmosphere. “I think you will hear from Simon before you hear from me if I destroy the house. “
“Mmm true. That gossiper.” pulling away slightly, “Come on, eat up before it gets cold. I’ll take you to work later.” He nudges you gently.
As promised, he returned to you months later, slightly scratched but alive and well. 
You were standing at the doorway, with an open arm to welcome him home . He was so overwhelmed and caught up by your excitement, for the first time ever, apart from his own family, he had someone to come home to. 
He dropped his duffle bag down, grabbing your hand with his, and kneel down and blurted out his declaration of love and proposed to you.
You froze. 
So did he. Gaped-mouth. Looks like he didn’t expect himself to do that either. 
“I .. I am sorry bonnie. Ah. um. Dont worry about it.” Soap quickly stood up, face and ears totally red after seeing your shock expression. Taking your silence as a rejection he grabbed his bag, shoulders slumped and quickly pushed past you, trying to cover up his embarrassment.
You touch his arm to stop him.
“Yes.”  You took a breath in, repeating it in a louder voice. “ YES.” 
He spun around, dropping his bag again.
“YES. I will marry you , John Campbell MacTavish.” you repeated again with a firm and convicted tone. You want this. You know deep down he is the one for you. Sweeping you up into his arm with a loud cheer, you screamed loudly as he started spinning you around. 
“Let me down Johnny!!” you laughed. 
He set you down on the firm ground, but not before peppering you with kisses on your lips and cheek. 
“Thank you.” After calming down, he looks at you with his beautiful baby blue eyes, full of love and happiness, voice wavering with emotion.
Oh wait until Mini hears about this……
“So I heard you proposed unexpectedly.”
“Haud ya sheesh. It was planned.”
“English MacTavish. You didn’t have a ring so it was not planned”
“I said shut up. I want her to choose her own ring.”
“ Whatever you say….”
Tumblr media
And the shit stirrer gossiper Ghost was quick at work. Everyone knew about it a day after both of them returned to the barrack. Gaz couldn’t stop poking fun at Soap. Price just look at his three pseudo-sons with amusement. 
Inspiration? This absolutely brilliant art by @beyondgoodandevil146, The OG Captain Soap MacTavish and Delicious Soap
And the song by The Last Goodnight  keeps going around in my brain. So… combine them together? Bam.

Broken Skies (Bradley Bradshaw x Mitchell!Reader) Sneak Peek
Note: This is a redo of my Bradley Bradshaw Sneak Peek. This is more of a prequel rather than a sneak peek this time. Mel - “one who is fearless and daring.” 
Warnings: Nothing big, maybe angst, other than a brief mention of death, possible military inaccuracies. Not grammar/spelling checked.
Masterlist | Sneak Peek | Chapter 1
Tumblr media
You and Bradley Bradshaw grew up together, rarely ever leaving each other’s side. Your dad is Pete Mitchell; your mom left not long after you were born thinking that she was not fit for this lifestyle. Pete raised you with the help of his best friends Nick and Carole Bradshaw. They have a son, Bradley, who is only two years older than you, but that didn’t change the fact that you two became best friends. Whenever Pete and Nick had to go on deployments you stayed with Carole and Bradley. Carole treated you as if you were her own; Bradley treated you like his little sister, holding your hand when going outside, comforting you when you miss Pete, playing any game you want, you name it. Pete and Nick made a bet that when you and Bradley grew up, you will end up together.
Everything was going great until tragedy struck the Bradshaw family. Bradley lost his dad, now it was your turn to comfort him. You were not old enough to understand everything, but you knew when Bradley was sad. From this, you and Bradley became even closer. Pete did everything he could to be there for Carole and Bradley, at the same time raising you. The other’s from the Top Gun class did what they could to chip in. 
Things started getting better. Before you know it, you joined Bradley in high school. He was still your best friend. He didn’t care that his best friend was a freshman when he was a junior. He was your ride to and from school, he walked you to class whenever he was able to, even waited for you after class. He would scare off anyone that made you uncomfortable. He even asked you to every school dance. Carole thought it was the cutest thing in the world and had collections of photos and home videos, while Pete always joked about whether or not it was time to attempt scaring Bradley, with the “treat my daughter right or else” talk, but deep down he knew Bradley would never hurt you. You started developing a crush on Bradley, but not wanting to ruin the friendship, you kept it to yourself. Little did you know, Carole saw through it right away. The way you look at Bradley is the same way she look at Nick, it was love. 
That’s when things took a turn for the worse. Bradley lost his mother; you lost your only mother figure, Pete lost another person that means so much to him. You were there for Bradley throughout everything; Pete had Bradley move in to live with you and him, promising Carole and Nick to take care of Bradley no matter what. 
Before you know it, Bradley started applying for the Naval Academy. This scared Pete. You were sad and scared, but at the same time happy for him. You understood he wanted to be like his dad, follow in his footsteps, to be a naval aviator. You wanted to be just like your dad too. You both made a promise to join the naval academy and make it to Top Gun, and that he will wait for you. Remembering his promise to Carole and not wanting to lose anyone else close to him, he made the bold decision of pulling Bradley’s paper, ignoring countless advice from his wingman, Tom Kazansky. Bradley was so angry when he found out, some of that anger going onto you. 
“Why did you let him pull my papers?! You are trying to get me out of the picture so you can get ahead, aren't you?!” Bradley shouted at you. You were confused and hurt at the same time. You didn’t know what your dad had done. You were hurt that Bradley would think that low of you. Before you can get a word in, Bradley had stormed out of the house. That night, as you laid in your room still upset about what happened earlier in the day, you heard your dad and Bradley arguing back and forth. You heard the door slam, not knowing that was the last time you saw Bradley. 
Months went by, you continued to try to get in contact with Bradley but nothing ever went through. But life went on, it was now your turn to submit an application to the Naval Academy. This scared Pete even more, he already lost so many people, he didn’t want to lose you too, his only daughter. He wanted to pull your papers too, but this time Iceman stopped him from making another mistake. He wasn’t going to let his wingman lose another kid. “She’s ready, Mav. You have to let go. We’ve taught her everything she needs to know.” Reluctantly, he listened to his wingman this time. 
Time flies. Before you know it, you were graduating from the naval academy, then you were going onto flight school. Pete and Tom couldn’t be more proud. Turns out you fly just like your dad and Tom, fearless, a bit reckless, makes no mistakes, but also has a hint of cautiousness, earning the callsign Mel. 
 They tried to keep tabs on Bradley as much as possible. Of course they were proud of him too, and they know his parents would’ve thought the same. Soon, you found out that you would be attending Top Gun. You finally made it. He never did contact you, but your dad kept you up to date. Turns out he will be in the same class as you. Maybe you’ll be able to rekindle your friendship with Bradley.

The Best New Main Character Tournament (Round 4/Quarterfinal Poll)
Note: I recommend reading this blog's pinned post that explains what this tournament is about before voting
The four most voted for characters on this poll will proceed to the semifinal round; the two least voted for will be knocked out of the competition.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
PROPAGANDA:
Palamedes Sextus- You'd have Palamedes and Camilla solving the mysteries of Canaan House and tracking down the murderer, you've got his emotional turmoil at being rejected by the love of his life, you have his sheer bafflement at his good friend Protesilaus taking up a vow of silence and repeatedly attacking this other huge, silent weirdo who showed up. It would also be the best detective novel ending, in that he'd give his solution speech about who the culprit was and how they did it, then immediately explodes. Book over.
Descole- He's the antagonist of the prequel trilogy of games and often helps add to the mysteries to solve. I would love to see his perspective of all he did throughout those games.
Garrus Vakarian- None submitted
Eli 'Weevil' Navarro- Francis Capra is a fantastic and immensely underrated actor and he deserves his own show. Weevil is truly the best character and the under-utilised potential of the parts of his life that should have been relevant and weren't will haunt me until I die (worse because he was a major character/series regular). Please, I am begging you, force Rob Thomas to put his money where his mouth is in actually reckoning with the class (+race) inequality the show is always nominally condemning and then reinforcing every time they give racist millionaire characters a giant narrative spotlight and a seventeenth chance instead of paying attention to their POC regulars with so much more potential
Vee- There is just so much potential! It could be a cute cartoon about an awkward little shapeshifter trying to behave like a human. From time to time, a backstory episode about her past as a basilisk and her escape out of the Boiling Isles. Their closest friend is Masha, who slowly discovers their secret, and becomes their confident, like MoringMark Comics from 2022-10-20. (And of course, romance). With the return of Luz in the the human realm, it could be more psychological, exploring complex feeling toward her (envy, but also affection). But yeah, imagine a cute slice-of-life cartoon with the cutest character of the show! Completely in the mood found family, "weirdos staying together" and "being understood"!
Kim Kitsuragi- None submitted

Texas Chain Saw Massacre Game lore Deep Dive!
I wanted to do a lore deep dive since I've been hyperfixated on this game for the past fortnight, so here we are. Also I have an Evil Dead the Game one coming out soon, but that's for later. Before we start, please note this game is a prequel to the first film, so Sally and her friends haven't met the Slaughter Family yet.
Essentially the main story of TCM (the Game) is that these group of friends go searching for Maria Flores, Ana's sister who has been missing for the past month. Since other crimes are happening throughout Texas, Maria's disappearance gets drowned out and the police are unable to help. Ana gets her close friends together, this being (so far) Connie Taylor, Leland McKinney, Sonny Williams and Julie Crawford, and she tries to find out what happened.
In their search, the group come across the Slaughter Family, and all of them are kidnapped and either held captive in the family house, the slaughterhouse, the gas station or Nancy's house. Through gameplay the player chooses their fates, and so far there is no canonical ending so it's unknown who exactly was kidnapped, where they were kept or who, if any, survived. (Update: There is now a canonical fate for each character, check the end.) During an opening cutscene, one of the 5 victims tries to escape but gets killed by Leatherface before everybody else even wakes up.
In gameplay only 3 members of the Slaughter Family actually appear, though Leatherface is mandatory and canonically is one of the killers hunting these group of friends. (Update: Leatherface is no longer mandatory to start a game, but considering the game was made with the intent of him being mandatory I'm still saying he's canonically one of the killers, it just makes sense.)
So what exactly happened to Maria? Well we have the prequel game "Petals" to answer us. Essentially, Maria had gone on a roadtrip where she stopped to take photos of random things that interested her, and every so often sent a postcard to her family to let them know she was safe. At some point, a man began to follow her around and she felt like he was stalking her every move even if she couldn't see him. In Newt, Muerto County, Texas, Maria's car broke down and she decided to kill time by taking photos. What she did not know was that Johnny was following her at this point, being the guy who had been stalking her. As she takes pictures, he follows her around before unlocking the front gate to the family house, leading to Maria entering out of curiosity. As Maria took her last photo, Johnny finally revealed himself and stole her camera. This caused Maria to realise who he was and flee towards the closest house, begging for help. Unfortunately for Maria, this was the home of the Slaughter Family and Sissy answered the door, and she and Johnny held Maria down as Leatherface killed the poor girl. After this, her body was taken to Black Nancy's house, where it's possible her friends found her (if that is where they spawned.) Since she had told her family about the man stalking her, and she'd stopped sending letters, her sister instantly became worried and began to search for answers, becoming paranoid after her car was found abandoned.
Whilst this is the main story, there are other behind the scenes lore related to the characters, mainly the killers. Since Leatherface, Cook and Hitchhiker are already well known I'll only talk about the new characters.
First, Sissy. Sissy is one of the original characters introduced for this game, however she was actually a scrapped concept from the original film that Kim Henkel removed, likely because the film was too crowded. (It should also be noted there is a member of the family named Sissy in the 2013 film.) Sissy is sister to the Cook, Hitchhiker and Leatherface, however at some point during her adolescence she ran away from home, and went around the country joining various different cults, most notably joining the Manson Cult where she learned the songs she sings in game. It's implied she wasn't always insane but became so after joining the Manson’s. During her time in the Manson Cult, she learnt how to make poisons from flowers and she used this on her victims as her MO. It's implied she was part of the cult during the murder of Sharon Tate, meaning she’s been in the cult for at least 4 years. Only recently she returned home to the Slaughter Family, where she quickly became a favourite of grandpa and a useful member of the team due to her innocent and sweet appearance. Sissy is seemingly the most beloved member of the family (aside from Grandpa) as Leatherface, Hitchhiker and Grandpa are on good terms with her, or at least as good as you’re getting in this family, with only Johnny and Nancy seeming to dislike her. As to why she isn't in the films, it's likely after the game she left the family again to either go off on her own or to join a new cult.
Next is Johnny, being based on real life serial killers who used their good looks to attract victims, especially women. Like Sissy, he was a scrapped concept that was reused for the game. He is not directly related to the Slaughter Family, as he is actually adopted and is only cousins to the main siblings. As a toddler, Johnny's real mother was murdered by Black Nancy, who for whatever reason, took Johnny in and raised him as her own, lying to him and saying she was his Aunt. Growing up he became sadistic and enjoyed using his charms and handsome face to attract his victims and kill them. Despite being good at killing, and excellent at drawing prey in, he is rather disliked by most of the family who find him too hard to control. Whilst the family are murderers, Johnny is a serial killer and causes trouble for the family by murdering girls all the time and drawing attention to them as reflected by the voice lines said in game. He got a scar on his left shoulder, from the "Pflugerville Incident" where he'd stabbed a girl to death, but her roommates woke up and fought back. Opposite to Sissy, majority of the family doesn't like Johnny, as Sissy, Hitchhiker, Cook and Leatherface all seem annoyed by him. Johnny is the one who inadvertantly starts the game, as it is he who stalks and eventually kills Maria, leading to Ana and her friends going after them, and this is one of the reasons the other family members are so mad at him, especially Cook who states he doesn't take pleasure in killing like the others do. It's likely he isn't in the films because he wasn't with the family, but rather with Nancy or off on his own.
Black Nancy is a black widow killer, using her meek and innocent apperance to draw in men, who she eventually married before they "mysteriously" disappeared. Unlike the other characters with an outside life, Nancy has a bad reputation giving her the nickname "Black Nancy" although nobody can prove she killed her husbands. In her backstory it's stated she didn't really kill her husbands for money, but rather because they couldn't fill the void in her heart, yet raising Johnny did. It's unknown what relation she has to the main family, but seeing as Johnny is considered a cousin to Sissy, Hitchhiker and Leatherface, it's likely she is their Aunt making her the sister to whoever their parents are (which might be Grandpa, idk lore's very weird.) Since she isn't part of their direct family, she isn't as close to the rest of them, however she is very much obsessive over her "son" in an odd juxtaposition as she is very motherly to Johnny, whilst also being sadistic and cannibalistic. It's likely she keeps Maria's body in her house to protect Johnny specifically. Since she isn't as close to the family and doesn't live with them, it's likely she didn't appear in the films because she was doing her own thing away from the rest of the family. She also seems to have a connection to Cook, but nothing has been confirmed. Some think she might be his partner, but considering she's a black widow, it would be weird. That and he could be her nephew so I'd hold off on shipping them.
Ana Flores is the unofficial protagonist of the game, being the one who gets all her friends together to go searching for her missing sister when the police were unable to do anything. Despite being a regular girl, she has the best endurance and takes hits easier, likely being due to her willpower. She is so determined to find her sister she literally tanks hits from a chainsaw, just to discover the truth. Likely following where her sisters car was found, she comes across the Slaughter Family along with 3 of her close friends, and they end up being kidnapped and hunted down in one of the four maps. It's unknown whether Ana or any of her friends survive, but considering the original film shows no signs the family were close to being caught, it's possible the victims were all killed, or Ana was unable to convince the cops of anything. It should be noted that Ana’s character is referred to as “The Final Girl” implying she might’ve survived. (Update: She doesn’t survive, check the end of this post.)
Finally there is Danny Gaines, Maria's boyfriend who went looking for her. He didn't go with Ana or her friends, he instead went off on his own and came to Black Nancy's house to find answers. Nancy knew what happened with Maria, and to protect her son she decided to try and kill Danny, which might've led to him being taken to the Family House which is right next to Nancy's house, being kidnapped alongside the others. Since his fate is not mentioned alongside the other survivors, it seems to be canon that he was killed by Nancy.
Some other small tidbits is that the Hitchhiker's camera is actually stolen from Maria, and is the same one he uses in the first TCM film. Majority if not all of the radio broadcasts are related to the Slaughter Family, such as a person getting poisoned by Sissy, the "Terror of 1-40", and Johnny's Pflugerville murder case.
Regarding canonicity, this game works with the original writers and actors, and nothing contradicts anything in the original 2 films, so I consider this canon to the franchise, as does the creators. If a new character comes out that is somebody like Sally Hardesty, that definitely won't be canon, but it is an online asymmetrical game, so not everything will be 100% canon.
These are really fun, but after Evil Dead the Game I don't think I'll do another since Friday the 13th didn't really have lore and Dead by Daylight has way too much lore for me to cover. As always, if you have any questions about the lore of this game, just ask, I don't have all the answers but I know most of the lore so don't be afraid to ask.
*UPDATE* The game devs have released an official lore post about the story! I’d recommend checking that out:
*SECOND UPDATE!! The Devs have revealed the canon fates of each character. Unfortunately every survivor dies in the game. First to die is Leland, then Sonny, Connie and Ana. Julie does escape the house but bleeds out and dies on the road. Personally IMO I think it’s odd they characterised Ana as the “Final Girl” just to have her not only die but not even be the last one standing? Like just say Julie is the final girl or make Ana the one who dies on the road… Since Danny is also dead, this means so far, nobody has canonically survived the Slaughter Family. I should mention, the opening cutscene where a victim is killed by Leatherface appears to canonically be Leland, since he's the first to die.
*ANOTHER UPDATE: An official lore stream has been uploaded that goes through each character in detail, so my post is obsolete and if you are interested you should just go check that out.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 Facts
-was originally supposed to be about a town full of cannibals instead of just the Sawyer family. This version was to be titled "Beyond the Valley of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre'. Bubba Sawyer and Sally Hardesty were to return. Nubbins Sawyer would've survived, been left paralyzed, and tied to a tree by the Sawyer family.
-Bill Mosely was cast as Chop Top because he splayed Nubbins in a Texas Chainsaw Massacre parody called 'The Texas Chainsaw Manicure'.
-Bill Mosely played Chop Top as the vocalist in an avant-garde metal band formed in 1995 called The Cornbugs with Bucket Head, Pinchface, and Travis Dickerson. The band released five albums and two DVDs before their 2007 breakup. Their songs were heavily inspired by TCM and TCM2.
-Gunnar Hansen was offered to return as Bubba, though he turned down the role because the offer was too low.
-Dennis Hopper, Lefty Enright's actor, celebrated his 50th birthday on set and cut his birthday cake with a chainsaw.
-Tobe Hooper's son William Hooper tried to bring Bill Mosely back as Chop Top in a TCM short film. It would have been titled 'All American Massacre' and was supposed to be both a prequel and sequel to TCM2. It would have followed Chop Top's origins and his breakout from prison to embark on his own massacre. The project died out when William Hooper ran out of money to complete the film during post-production. Eventually a trailer for the film was leaked and can be watched on youtube.
-Edwin Neal, Nubbins actor in TCM confirmed that the reason Nubbins wasn't sent to war while Chop Top was was because Nubbins was too crazy.
-The family photo used in the advertisements, posters, and covers was a spoof of The Breakfast Club.
-In the original version, Stretch was going to be Lefty's illegitimate daughter.
-Lefty is Sally and Franklin's uncle.
-When Lefty is buying his chainsaws, Bubba's TCM chainsaw model, a Poulan 245A, can be seen on the wall.
-Chop Top's real name is Robert. His and Drayton's are the only two known real first names of the Sawyers.
-during filming, the main set caught on fire and when firefighters showed up, they thought they had stumbled upon a mass murderers body stash

Behold, your first look at Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik in Young Sheldon‘s series finale.
As previously reported, Parsons and Bialik will reprise their roles as Drs. Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler in the prequel series’ hour-long sendoff, airing Thursday, May 16 (CBS, 8/7c) — which will be exactly five years to the day since The Big Bang Theory signed off in 2019.
Parsons, who is an executive producer on Young Sheldon, has served as narrator on all seven seasons, while Bialik has reprised Amy and served as co-narrator on two episodes. But this is the first time that anyone from Big Bang will appear in person, on screen, on the wildly successful spinoff.
Tumblr media
In Big Bang’s last episode, Sheldon and Amy took home the Nobel Prize in physics for their discovery of super asymmetry. Sheldon’s prize is framed and hung up on his office wall, while a photo snapped shortly after Sheldon and Amy accepted their Nobel prize sits on the shelf below, along with a family photo featuring Young Sheldon’s George Sr., Mary, Georgie, Missy and Meemaw.
Tumblr media
In another photo, Amy is holding a Flash coffee mug. Behind her, we spot the atomic model that once stood in Apt. 4A — the same atomic model that Leonard and Sheldon spent nearly 140 hours rebuilding before they left for Stockholm. There’s also a Rubik’s Cube-inspired coaster on Sheldon’s desk, not unlike the tissue box that sat on the end table in Leonard and Sheldon’s place.
Tumblr media
Young Sheldon will be followed by a second Big Bang offshoot, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, centered on Sheldon’s older brother Georgie (played by Montana Jordan) and his new wife Mandy (Emily Osment), which is slated to air on CBS, Thursdays at 8/7c, this fall.
Series co-creator Chuck Lorre is also working on a third Big Bang Theory series — a top-secret project “derived from” the CBS mega-hit that is earmarked for streaming service Max.

Fic ideas for the LanDot nation
The many LanDot ideas I have but never got to write (it’s midterms now ;-;)
I’ll classify this into spoilers and non spoilers for the manga so anyone can read this :3
No Spoilers fanwork ideas
Dot gets told that his love life will flourish by a prophet and he is HYPED
Based off the official fan book info where he spends his pocket money on monthly prophet magazines.
Astrology guy x Astronomy guy
Shenanigans ensue
Dot has a nightmare where he is surrounded by Anna dolls
The dolls tell him to confess/make sense of his feelings like the Christmas ghost of the past, the future and the present
Could be a reoccurring nightmare or just a one time thing, both give Dot a sense of “???huh???” But being a little bit of a believer, he really thinks about it and what it could mean.
Feelings realisation with the help of a little girl he’s never personally met
Lance makes merch for Anna and made one of Dot to get back at him
It was funny until it wasn’t, Lance feels like he has to make it look perfect and struggles on how none of the pictures he had does Dot justice. Some of them are goofy in a dorky way, some others are just him being angry, and there are just some that he can’t bring himself to make merch of…
A little bit of feelings realisation, as a treat
And or he can try to get a good photo
Established relationship, Dot and Lance try to keep it low, but their matching earrings/accessories gave it away…
and it’s prequel
Established relationship, the origin of the matching accessories
I HC Lance to show affection through gifts or materialistic means more than Dot (see. His merch collection)
Early in the relationship, a pair of matching accessories catch Lance’s attention. He buys it for himself and Dot to wear together.
Dot was initially a bit bashful but gives in.
Their friends begin to notice this and starts to wonder what’s going on between the two.
There’s a little cut out of Dot in the lower right corner of Lance’s pendant now
RPG AU (based off of light novel/choose your own adventure books 2&3) Dot has his tummy exposed, Lance dotes him on it
On the cover of the 2nd LN/CYOA book, Dot, presumably with the class barbarian, doesn’t have his clothes cover him properly. Being the older brother that he is, Lance dotes on him.
An exposed tummy leaves one with a higher chance of being sick , Lance offers Dot his cape.
Dot is flattered by this but ends up getting sick anyway
Established/Developing relationship: meeting the family
Either Dot brings Lance to meet his family to get semi-interrogated by Malta (Dot’s grandma and mother watch from the sidelines, his grandma is also surprisingly capable of being intimidating)
Or Lance gets Dot to meet Anna, Dot gets seriously interrogated by a 12 year old over tea.
The gang gets an invite to Macaron’s Orchestra when Dot gets to perform as the violinist, Lance is surprised and slightly moved by the music
Dot is good at the violin, of course he should perform.
Lance wasn’t there at the scene where he was playing, so I want him to be the only one slightly surprised at this reveal and very surprised that Dot can actually play well.
Fantasy AU: knights and dragons( Dot is the knight and Lance is the Dragon)
In this fantasy AU, princesses being locked in towers is still something that happens, albeit somewhat rare.
Due to her age and politics of her kingdom, Princess Anna was sent to escape with her brother when their kingdom was under attack. Lance can transform into a dragon because of some potion he took in order to better protect Anna. He keeps her in the tower most of the time for safety, but Anna still gets lonely, so she makes paper airplanes and flies them out to try to find people occasionally (Despite her brother’s disapproval, she does it while he isn’t looking)
Aspiring young knight of a nearby kingdom, who wishes nothing more to find a princess of his own stumbles upon one of these planes (after many attempts to save tower princesses and proposing to girls, royalty or not)
When reaching the tower while Lance was away, it was clear Anna isn’t the princess he’s looking for, but he still plays with her before her brother comes back. (Big scare)
Semi-domestic fluff: Since Anna isn’t the right princess, maybe her brother is ?
Demon AU: Demon Dot and Human Lance
Dot, a demon, accidentally gets summoned when Lance, a human, wanted to summon a guardian Angel for his sister.
With no real return button, Dot’s just stuck there I guess. Lance makes Dot act as Anna’s guardian Angel despite knowing the fact that he’s a demon
(Angels, demons, similar spell; this Demon that he summoned is the best he can get atm, and he technically still has to fulfil his wish of keeping his sister safe. Plus, he’s got some little bits of feathers on his wings, it’s like a discounted Angel at worst)
Other people can see Dot, not his wings, tail or horns though
More details here hehe
(WINGS WINGS WINGS
Hi, I was a Destiel fan , can you tell?)
Excessive use of the Ira Kruez makes Dot ill, team mom Lance is here to help
Sick fic! Using Ira Kruez in the rain causes Dot to have a magical burnout. Lance takes care of him in a sick fic way
Alternatively:
Dot falls from the fucking sky because of a broom mishap, Lance takes care of him with bad pick up lines and more
Mash gets challenged by Lloyd Cavill’s goons and Dot takes up the challenge for his friend. The competition was rigged and a broom mishap happened half way through, leaving Dot badly injured.
Lance is the only one who can take care of him periodically because 1. He’s good with class so he can skip skip sometimes 2. He’s the most capable at take care of people amongst their group of friends.
The bad pick up line part came from “laughter is the best medicine”, it’s advice the others gave to Lance when Dot is still in a magic coma, amongst many other dumb suggestions.
“Did it hurt?”
“Huh??”
“When you fell out of the sky and got a concussion “
A little more display of affection, Dot eating it up.
They are both dumb
Modern AU: Doctor Lance and less successful/ failing musician Dot; And they were roommates
Years after graduation, the gang goes their separate ways. Mash becomes an unconventional cream puff baker, Finn becomes a public servant, Lemon works in her family’s bookshop suspiciously close to Mash’s bakery. Lance works at a high paying job as a successful doctor, and no one really knows what Dot is up to…
A chance meeting after work leads Lance to find out (fuck around, find out)
Lance bumps into Dot at a convenience store. It wasn’t a route he passed by much, so it was a surprise to see the spiky red haired boy there, handing in… something and looking dejected.
Upon meeting Lance’s eyes, Dot hopped over with faux-familiarity and an air of awkwardness when he offered to grab dinner, dragging him by the elbow to leave.
Over some fried rice with a few cups of beer, Dot vents his troubles in finding work after his ambitions to start a band failed; he got kicked out from his last apartment for late rent and his sister is starting to nag him to move out of hers. Lance just pats Dot’s back as he wails shitfaced. In the end, Lance brings Dot home so he can rest.
Naturally, Lance paid for that meal.
In this AU, the gang are all adults, so I HC Anna to be in junior/high school.
Anna obviously would live with Lance. Idk if i should make Anna’s illness a thing in this AU.
The Crown family is middle high class, fairly influential,
Despite Lance’s success, they cut ties with him (homophobia? )
Anyways that my idea
TBC
Spoilers to manga)
Lance has difficulty balancing work as a new DV, Dot offers to help out as his assistant DV
Between Anna, school work and DV work, life has been hard to handle as of late. Shortly after a chat with Orter Madl, unlikely help appears in the form of Dot Barrett!
Dot’s reason for volunteering as his assistant :
It’d look good on his CV
He can spend more time at the Bureau of Magic, maybe the three of them can get lunch tgt more often
It’s a good opportunity to poke fun at Lance
Established relationship: PTSD or nightmares of the final battle
The scene was so all too familiar to him: Lance rushing forward to block the projectiles before he could even react; his warm body slumping down on his as the smell of iron, the liquidy feeling of warm blood seeps through the cape into his palms, now stained red. What if Lance died that day? Why is he always putting himself in danger?
Memories of the final battle twist into nightmares in Dot’s mind
Dot finds a pin with his face on it among the many other Anna pins
Short and sweet, possible sequel to Lance making Dot merch fic idea.
Remember the sea of Anna pins that acted as chain mail for Lance? Imagine Lance changing it every once in a while.
As roommates, Dot might notice something special when Lance leaves his cloak on his bed one day
Lance and Dot buy back to school products for Anna
As a newly enrolled student of Easton Academy, it’s necessary to buy new things to get ready for this brand new school life.
After no one else being willing to go, Lance drags Dot along with him with the promise of treating him to something nice
It turns into a shopping date
Future AU :they get married
They get married and boom Ira kreuz
TBC
*funny thing is that I’ve written the start to some of these already, I’ve just never gotten around to finishing them…

Was trying to explain to Mom about how easy it is to come across AI on the internet and to be mindful of specific search results and to not trust Facebook with its photos and how to spot AI Generated photos by whipping up some examples with Bing Image Creator, and I'm actually scared as to how good some of these look at first glance. 😬
((I like to use the Bing Image Creator for laughs, but I only use non-human characters because using live action faces is creepy to me, and wrong. I just want funny ideas for my personal amusement to laugh with my family when I show the results))
For example, check under the Read More for some of my prompts:
"Godzilla drinking Boba Tea"
Tumblr media
Aside from the extra finger and the misshapen people and questionable text, this looks like a phone wallpaper. Who's art did they steal from to get this style??
"Godzilla Build-A-Bear"
Tumblr media
He doesn't look like a Build-A-Bear plush, but he definitely looks like a 80s-90s era plush doll of a generic dino. I hate that I want one of these fabricated creations.
"Godzilla at Walmart"
Tumblr media
The other results as well kept giving him a Hawaiian shirt, lei, sunglasses and people crowding him like a celebrity. Not gonna lie, this would go hard as a Steam icon. I hate it in a fascinated way.
"Sonic the Hedgehog racing Godzilla on the Beach"
Tumblr media
This is literally just a dream sequence. Why does it looks good at a glance, I had zoom in to show Mom why the details are the dead giveaway, and honestly, this could be posted as a compressed jpeg and hide among other pictures. As a Godzilla fan, the fact that this is not an actual Godzilla suit design tells me right away it's fake, but Sonic almost looks like a fan render with the exception of the right foot. This is scary how coherent most of it it. 😬
"Sonic the Hedgehog Convenience Store Security Footage"
Tumblr media
... This would be a good avatar icon concept if it was redrawn more accurately. Sonic looks too good, I hate this so much because if I didn't prompt this, I would have been fooled if not for the unintelligible products on the shelves
"Jar Jar Binks Statue in the Middle of a Dark Forest with a Full Moon"
Tumblr media
"WHY IS HE SHIRTLESS IN ALL OF THESE, I DIDN'T SAY TO DO ANY OF THESE, THESE ARE TERRIFYING, I HATE IT, EW EW!!!" Was mostly what I said about the results. I chose "Jar Jar Binks Statue" as the subject because my grandfather has a lifesized promo stature one of his step grandkids won it in a contest back during the Star Wars Prequel days, and it's a creepy thing that I get haunted vibes from. This image feels like a low budget horror movie that we'll get if Jar Jar ever gets into the public domain.
Mom decided to give me a prompt, and it's "Kermit the Frog Jumping Over the Moon"
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why do these look like actual photos you'd hang up in your kid's nursery room or something?? Aside from the occasional wonky eye, these look like legit Kermit art, and I am angry at how nice these look.
Conclusion:
AI is getting too powerful. 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬

You Can Start a Family (Extra: Holiday Blues)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After losing loved ones, holidays can be incredibly difficult. Normally thanksgiving is the worst for you. It was the one time of year when your entire family would gather to celebrate together. But this year you had still been in the hospital and barely noticed the day passing by.
Which means that Christmas is when all the feelings are coming out.
It’s a few days before Christmas and it’s a rare occasion when you’re home alone. Since you got home from the hospital there’s normally at least one person with you. It’s nice, but also can be overwhelming. So, when Mitch, Sarah, and Harry said they all had errands to run you reassured them you’d be fine alone and practically pushed them out the door.
As soon as they leave you run to the back of your closet and grab the presents you stashed there. The real reason you wanted them gone is so you can finally wrap the gifts you have for them without worrying that they’ll see. You put on your favorite Christmas music and get to work.
It doesn’t take long for you to finish this task and soon you’re putting the wrapped presents back in the hiding spot. You spend some time tidying the apartment until you find an old photo album. You’re starting to get a bit tired from all the activity, so you decide to take a break and flip through the old pictures.
You curl up on the sofa with your favorite fuzzy blanket (that you definitely did not steal from Harry) and begin to look at the photos.
It starts off as a fun activity. Reminiscing about fun times, laughing at the memories, even sending your cousins some photos.
And then you come across pictures from Christmas. You guess you were about 10 years old. In the photo you and your sister are sitting side by side on the floor opening presents. Your mom is behind you and your grandparents are on the couch. Your dad isn’t in it, and you know he was the one behind the camera. As you look through the other pictures you get hit with a wave of sadness.
You finish the photo album and open your phone. You start to watch the videos you have saved of your family members. You know you shouldn’t, you can feel the overwhelming grief starting to creep up, but you can’t help yourself. You miss them and want to see them and hear their voices.
Tears pool in your eyes and it doesn’t take long for them to turn into full body sobs. You embrace the emotions you’re feeling, knowing that this cry session will be cathartic for you. Mitch is always telling you not to bottle things inside, and you know he’s right when he tells you to let it all out. And so, you do.
You’re curled up on the couch, hugging your legs to yourself, and you hear the front door open. You immediately get up and Sarah barely has a chance to ask what’s wrong before you’re in her arms. You wrap your legs around her waist, and she staggers for a moment under your weight before she gets her footing and holds you tight. You tuck your face into her neck as you continue to cry.
“Love, you’re worrying me, what’s wrong?” she asks.
You try to answer, but you can’t catch your breath. You feel a hand on your back and hear Mitch say, “Take a deep breath with me. That’s it, baby. Another one, a good slow breath for me. Good girl, that’s better.” You’re no longer gasping for air, but tears still roll steadily down your cheeks.
The next person to speak is Harry and he asks, “Can you try again and tell us what happened lovie?”
You sniffle and nod before saying, “I was looking through old pictures and videos. I just miss my family so much.” Your voice breaks and a new wave of sobs begins. Sarah gently rocks you, but Mitch can see that her arms are growing tired. He reaches out, indicating that she should pass you to him, but Harry quietly asks, “Can I?” as he puts his arms out as well. Mitch nods and Sarah passes you to Harry.
It's the first time Harry’s held you like this. It’s a position that you’d normally see between parent and child more so than boyfriend and girlfriend, but it’s your favorite way to be comforted when you’re upset. It makes you feel small, and young, and most importantly, cared for. You feel especially tiny in Harry’s strong arms. He starts to rock you as Sarah had been, the motion soothing you. He’s talking to you quietly, and while you’re still too upset to focus on the exact words he’s saying, the familiar cadence of his voice helps ground you even more.
Your sobs finally calm down to sniffles and you manage to stop crying. Truthfully, letting everything out did actually help. You feel so much lighter now as you rest your head on Harry’s shoulder. Sarah steps out for a moment and Mitch sees how your eyes tiredly track her movements. She comes back with some tissues and a damp washcloth. She wipes away the tears and cleans your face. This almost makes you cry again, as you feel so incredibly loved. You offer her a sleepy smile to thank her, and she smiles back as she slides her hand over your hair.
You melt into the touch and your eyes slip closed.
“Why don’t we sit on the couch and take a nap?” Mitch asks you. Without even opening your eyes you nod at the suggestion. He sits down and Harry places you sideways in his lap. Mitch cradles you to himself and you tuck yourself into his hold, your hands gripping his shirt. Sarah and Harry sit on either side of you two and knowing that you’re surrounded by your three favorite people, you give into the exhaustion. Mitch hears your breathing even out and notes how your grip on his shirt doesn’t let up, even as you sleep. He holds you tighter and feels you relax in response.
For a while no one moves. They stay cuddled together on the couch. In a way the three of them are grateful for you acting as a reminder to slow down, and that time with the people you love is more important than reaching for success. They soak up this time together.
The sun begins to set and before long the Christmas lights are the only thing keeping the room from total darkness. Sarah stands up and says, “I’m going to get started on dinner.” She leans down to kiss Mitch then presses a kiss to the side of your head. Harry rises as well stating that he’ll help. Just as Sarah had, he shares a quick kiss with Mitch. He then crouches down and gently strokes your face before leaning to press a series of gentle kisses. He stays close for a long moment before finally walking to the kitchen. Mitch and Sarah both notice the way Harry’s acting and share a worried look. Sarah subtly nods and Mitch knows that she’ll check on him while they prepare dinner.
They work side by side to put together a tray of eggplant parm, a recipe you taught them all how to make one night.
“You okay?” Sarah asks as they assemble the dish.
Harry pauses before truthfully replying, “No, not really.” She watches him as he puts the last bit of cheese on top and places it in the oven. He knows that she’s giving him time to explain more and so after finishing the task he says, “I just hate seeing her like this. I hate how much she’s gone through, how much pain she’s in. And when she was so upset that she couldn’t breathe? All I could think of was when she was sick last month and how we almost lost her. God, I was so scared! And then I thought, what if she hadn’t been away with her friends the night of the accident? She would’ve been in the car with her mum and sister! And then we never would have even met her, and I can’t, I cannot imagine life without her.”
He takes a shuddery breath and Sarah moves forwards, quickly wrapping him in her arms. They both begin to cry together, holding each other tight.
“I know the thought of losing her is scary,” Sarah says. “It’s terrifying. Sometimes I wake up at night and just watch her breathe.”
“I do that too,” Harry admits and they both start to smile.
“But,” Sarah continues. “We can’t think so negatively. Sure, we can worry. I think we’ll always worry. But Y/N is here and she’s okay. That’s the truth, it’s the reality. And that’s what we hold on to.” Harry nods and they stay in the embrace for a little longer.
They break apart and share a kiss. Sarah checks on the food in the oven and says, “That’s still got awhile until it’s ready. Let’s go back to the living room. It’s better for Y/N if we’re all there when she wakes up.”
They slide back into their spots on the couch and Mitch immediately notices how red their eyes are from crying. “You guys okay?” he asks.
“Yea,” Harry replies. “Much better now. How are you holding up?”
Mitch sighs before answering, “I’m good. I mean, it always hurts to see her like that but, she’s been through a lot of shit. I would be more worried if she was just perfectly happy all the time. As much as it sucks to see her grieve, I know it’s healthy for her, and I know that we can help her work through it.”
“Do you know if she’s ever been to therapy? To help process everything?”
“I’m not sure,” Sarah replies. “She hasn’t in the time we’ve known her, but maybe in the past?”
They talk a little more and their quiet voices are the first thing you notice as you begin to wake up. You snuggle deeper into Mitch for a moment as you slowly reorient yourself. Finally, you blink your eyes open and your heart fills with warmth as you see Mitch, Sarah, and Harry all gently smiling at you.
“How are you feeling?” Harry asks.
“Good,” you reply before realizing how croaky your voice is and how much your head hurts and how dry your eyes feel.
Sarah notices your discomfort and grabs a water bottle off the table and hands it to you. You thank her and drink deeply, feeling better with some hydration in you.
“How are you really feeling?” Mitch asks and you laugh.
“Physically, I’m kind of wiped from crying. But emotionally, honestly, I’m good now. I really needed to let all of it out. I knew that if I fell apart I had you all to put me back together. And you did. I used to bottle up all my emotions because I was alone and I knew I wouldn’t be able to pull myself together again, and now I don’t have to. You guys always do that for me.”
“I love you,” Sarah says, which leads to a lot of “I love you’s” and kisses being shared. The mini love fest ends when a timer beeps in the kitchen. All four of you get up and you head to the bathroom for a minute to freshen up.
You join the rest of them in the kitchen and get hit with a delicious smell.
“Is that eggplant parm?” You ask.
“Yup,” Harry replies. “Just waiting for the pasta to finish and dinner will be ready.”
You start setting the table, wanting to help in some way, and soon you’re all sitting at the table with plates of food in front of you. The first bite immediately takes you back to dinner at your grandparents’ house, and you once again feel nostalgic, instead of overcome by grief.
“Is it okay?” Sarah asks and you nod.
“It’s perfect. Tastes identical to when my grandma would make it. Thank you for cooking it.”
Some food and water and good dinnertime conversations have you feeling better than you have in a while. You look at the people around you and know that you’re not alone, and you never will be again. It’s a comforting thought, and you know that your smile probably looks a little crazy, but you can’t help it. A few hours ago, you felt absolute devastation for all you had lost, but now all you can feel is joy for the people you’ve found.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A quiet moment – John “Soap” MacTavish. 
Pairing :    John “Soap” MacTavish. X f!reader 
Summary: Little short drabble about our Soap boy and domestic fluff. Part of “ Mini MacTavish verse” , The character who was the flatmate of Mini which I gave her the name “Emma” in other fic, but here you can place any name you want here in this fic. warning : None. Domestic fluffs.
Character of Mini MacTavish is from @saltofmercury fic “ “The Favorite MacTavish” ” which she graciously let me borrow and write a bit more expanded universe. Please go read her wonderful story to get bit of background, 
“masterlist” for the prequel to this Mini MacTavish expanded verse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You let out a puff as you haul bags of groceries into your kitchen. You half expect the boys to come downstairs, as they usually do, to help you put things away. The boys are in the nursery, playing with piles of duplo and lego Johnny had bought for his son. 
“Are you going grocery shopping? We will come as well.” 
“I know you want to play with the legos.” You laughed, “ Plus, relax with our baby. Spend some time with him.” Johnny loves kids. Before your son was born, he was always over at his sister and Simon’s house, playing with the twins. Constantly express his eagerness to start a family with you straight after marriage. Due to the nature of both of your work, it gets delayed and delayed.
Until you gave him a card one day, and he absolutely balled his eyes out when he saw the ultrasound photo and the message in there, 
“ Hello daddy, can’t wait to meet you in a few months time!” 
Mini had warned you before that her brother is secretly a crybaby ( which of course, he fervently denies.), witnessing him display such openness with emotion, makes you love him even more. As due date gets closer and closer, the more nervous he gets. Can a man like him, with blood on his hand, really be a good father? Mini and the family came over one weekend for their regular family dinner,Johnny and Simon sat down outside on the deck, having a quiet drink,he expressed his worry to his brother-in arm/ brother-in-law. “... I think you will be fine. Look how well you do when you babysit the twins.” Simon said after a long silence.” Besides,if I can do it, you can too.” he let out a humourless laugh. Johnny reaches over and punches lightly on his shoulder. “Don’t put yourself down like that. You are a good father to the kids. You're going to be a good uncle too.” Two men clink their glasses. What started as Johnny trying to get some advice from Simon ended up to be two men trying to console each other.  But they don’t care, even with their brief period of rift of what happened between Simon and Mini, they are always there for each other. 
Simon was speechless when You and Johnny told him you will be naming your first born after him.
“ It’s only fair, your son was named after me.” Johnny said with a puffed chest.
“....I didn’t exactly make that decision.” Simon mumbled. Mini jabbed him with her elbow. 
You felt something tugging your trousers. Bringing you back from your reverie. Looking down, you saw your toddler son, Simon Campbell MacTavish, smiling up to you. “... huh,wha, where is daddy???” You asked your son, confused. Little Simon held up one of his fingers up to his lip, motioning you to follow him. 
With his little leg, he slowly climbed up the talls stairs, waddling towards his nursery. On the floor, you see Johnny , in a pile of duplos, snoring away. Little Simon pulled his blanket through the gaps of his cot, went over to his dad, draping the blanket over him clumsly, and proceeded to curl up right beside him, Johnny’s arm subconsciously pulling him into his lap. “Mama, goodnight.” He yawned and closed his eyes. Joining his dad in the dreamland. 
You chuckled at the sight. Picking up spare pillows from the cot, you put it under your son’s  Johnny’s head, and retreat from the room. Johnny ended up having an extremely sore back for the next few days. “ Sore back Soap? Having too much fun at home?”“ Shut up. You think grenades and rocket launchers are deadly? Try sleeping on lego and duplos.”
Tumblr media
For my Soap squads out there.  Thank you for reading, any likes, comments and reblogs are always appreciated :)
