Thomas: "Hey, y/n, do you want to go fishing?" / "Hmm, so what if you're cute? I have absolutely no interest in spending time with you. Maybe sometimes…" / "You know you can't get rid of me, don't you?"
Edward: "In the moments when I see you, I rejoice even more that my left eye still sees!" / "…Stop it, I need to work, not talk." / "Believe me, I'm only doing this to protect you! Please, y/n, don't call the police… I'm begging you…"
Henry: "It's always so cozy next to you..." / "I'm g-giving the flower to you b-because I'm running out of space in the shop, okay? I'll make sure you take good care of it!" / "Ah, y/n!~ I had to dig up the ground to plant daisies for you. I'm just a little dirty, don't worry."

Okay listen I can't tell whether this is stupid or funny but I can't stop thinking about it and I think you might vibe with this one?
Steve and Eddie go on their first date, and have their first kiss, and when they get back they have a moment like that one scene from friends? Where Eddie goes to see the Corroded Coffin boys, and Steve gets Robin over so they can talk about their date.
And Eddie is blushing and giggling and twirling his hair and kicking his feet, hanging out in Gareth's room. And the CC boys are talking to him, asking him questions and stuff like full on sleepover mode. Did he treat you right? Where did he take you? Did he kiss you? What was he like? And Eddie talks about how Steve opened doors for him, and bought him flowers, and treated him to the full first date experience. Going into detail about how Steve cradled his jaw as they kissed, how he moved his hand to tangle in Eddie's curls. How it was gentle and tender and romantic and passionate and Eddie has been fully swept off of his feet
And then Hard Cut to Steve and Robin lounging like animals on Steve's couch, watching Fast Times, drinking beer and eating pizza and Robin is like
"Did you kiss him?"
"Yeah."
"With tongue?"
MOMO!!!!! I can see this SO CLEARLY it’s like a parallel of the grease scene during summer loving it eddie being sandy and Steve being Danny and that is quiet frankly HILARIOUS.
I have legit nothing to add to this other than, if I could draw I’d be all over this oh my GOD

MULTIMUSE QUESTIONAIRE
Tagging: @infernalight, @infernal-feminae, @heartsofhell, @questionablemuses, @because-i-simp, @frostworkxfiction, @deepspacevivarium, @hotelbitches, @voxiiferous
RULES: Answer the questions with the Muses that would best fit the answers. Bonus if you give details why. If tagged, copy and paste into a new post – DO NOT REBLOG!
1) Rank your softest Muse and your toughest Muse. (Personality-wise)
My softest muse is definitely Vick. He's a 0 on the toughness scale, he's a big teddy bear and he will choose kindness over anything else at any point.
My toughest muse is probably Barbie. Girl is tough as nails and will not be stopped if she puts her mind to something. She doesn't take pain as a reason to stop and will go harder when it hurts.
2) Which Muse would blow through $1000 quickly?
Valentino, hands down. He spends $1,000 every day easily on things he doesn't even need. He loves to buy expensive things and will do so at all hours. He especially loves spending Vox's money. $1,000 is a drop in the bucket for him and he doesn't even notice spending it.
3) Do any of them have nicknames? Is there a meaning behind them?
Quite a few of them do!
Valentino answers to Bunny from his lovers, it's a subspace trigger word for him. I assigned him Bunny because he's Cute And Horny, aka a rabbit, and a bunny sub is fairly common.
4) Are any of them up-to-speed on the latest trends? Anyone more old school?
Velvette, Vox, and Valentino are obsessed with always being on top of the next new thing.
Alastor hates new things and will fight them as much as he can.
5) Who has the best relationship with their siblings?
Valentino had a fairly good relationship with his siblings when he was alive. He had seven of them, plus three live-in cousins that were like his siblings.
6) Karaoke night! Who is likely to grab the mic first and bust out a tune?
Beelzebub, Ozzie, Valentino, and Ostello! They all love to sing and party, and they're all pretty good at it. Ostello was a pop-jazz singer when he was alive and before he died in Hell, too!
7) Who is least likely to enter a beauty pageant/model?
Gretchen. She doesn't think that she's very pretty, and would just feel embarrassed even going to watch.
Travis. He is constantly told he's very ugly, and he doesn't have a very high opinion of his looks.
8) If your Muses visited a haunted house where actors scare you, who would panic and who would be unfazed?
Chazz, Gretchen, Charlie, Anya, Magpie, Summer, Travis, and Vick would be the easiest to scare!
Valore, Dimas, Cash, Glitz, Stu, Paimon, Alastor, Darío, Niffty, and Vox would be the hardest to phase.
9) Are any of your Muses particular about taking certain modes of transportation?
Vox prefers to be driven around and doesn't like driving himself.
Valentino only likes to drive occasionally and prefers pretty sports cars when he does.
Anya and Darío are motorcycle people.
Emily enjoys bicycles!
10) Share a little-known fact about any Muse.
Adam is actually a very good father and he loves kids and babies. He is very tender with children even if he can be harder on them once they have grown into adults.

I've been working on something about the role of prejudice in cycles of violence & how we see that play out in Supernatural. Meanwhile, I've been having fascinating conversations here about sex, misogyny, consent, gender performance, etc. (especially in regard to Dean) that have challenged me to think more carefully about where I draw various moral lines, as well as the meaning/importance/function of accountability in society at large (what "counts" & why that matters).
After one of these, it occurred to me that I've been called an apologist in a lot of different contexts, & I wanted to reflect on what a critic might call my instinct to "make excuses" for other people's moral transgressions. Reflecting brought me to the conclusion that I see empathy & understanding as more useful products of discourse than accountability or allocation of blame, so I wanted to talk a little bit about the impact of these on character analysis as I see it.
[To be clear, I'm deliberately differentiating between impact in discourse vs. the role of these things in society, because that's a much more complex topic. So this is not directly related to any previous discussion — just a tangent off a tangent!]
I'm not sure if this is the most useful way to think about these kinds of things, but I tend to view allocating blame to others as easy. If you want to get biblical: we'll see the splinter in someone else's eye & miss the plank in our own. Or, to get more scientific, it's the Fundamental Attribution Error (FAE) at work. We see our own behaviors as primarily driven by our circumstances (I was just snappy because I was sitting in traffic for the last 2 hrs — not to mention this terrible headache. Anyone would be snappy after that!) & other people's behaviors as primarily driven by immutable internal characteristics (wow, that dude's impatient; geez, that lady's mean).
So, how does this impact our understanding of other people (real & fictional)? Well...
The FAE makes us feel like we're passing judgment appropriately & just holding others to the same standards we're holding ourselves to, but most of the time, without realizing it, we're passing judgments on others that we'd never pass on ourselves. It's the natural result of the fact that we have extremely limited knowledge of other people's circumstances (including both external factors, like an ongoing divorce, and internal ones, like feeling sick that day) and extremely detailed knowledge of our own circumstances.
So, when we judge ourselves, we do so in a holistic way that accounts for all these details (as there's no way to just set that knowledge aside). But when we judge others, we have to actively imagine (or seek out knowledge of) the circumstances impacting them if we want to judge them with the same ruler (and thereby possibly exonerate them). Meanwhile, because we don't have to do this "extra work" to comfortably exonerate ourselves, it can feel like it's not part of a fair judgment, it's "a reach," or that motivated reasoning is spurring that extra work, when it's really just an attempt to level the playing field.
To sum up the above: I think our natural instinct is to err on the side of attributing things to someone's personality that should be attributed more to their circumstances, and so I push a little harder than most people in the other direction to try to correct for this. Now, this perspective might lead me to ultimately make more mistakes, but it doesn't feel like I'm wildly overcorrecting. (Of course, how would I know?)
However, even if I am, there might still be sufficient value in this approach to justify doing so. (More on this in Part 2: Who cares if we're "fair" to fictional characters? What's the value gained here, anyway — especially if it turns out that this approach does lead to overcorrecting?)
