#....this is coming out a little angsty

[s0fter-sin]

i need ghoap frantically making out against a door finally taking the leap on their feelings. need ghost grinding against soap, expecting to find him just as hard as him, only to feel nothing

and in all his wisdom and experience, he concludes soap was tortured and never told him

he’s trying to think of a delicate way to say he understands, that he’s been through it and it doesn’t change anything about how he feels (and who the fuck touched him so he can hunt them down and rend them limb from limb)

meanwhile trans!soap’s just trying to find the best angle to grind his cunt on ghost’s thigh

just it never even entering ghost’s head bc he’s never known a trans person but he has met plenty of people who’ve been tortured - himself included - so of course that’s his logical leap

soap takes off his shirt and he sees his top surgery scars and ghost asks if he wants him to kill the one who did it and soap just hums like, “actually, man did pretty good, they healed real well,” and ghost’s just teary-eyes with awe at how well he’s coping, “looking on the bright side, that’s my johnny.”

imagine he thinks johnny was fully castrated but sees he’s determined to still have a sex life with him so he buys packers and straps to help him bc hell yeah healing and soap’s just like, “holy shit i’ve never had such a thoughtful partner before, such a sweet man, lt.”

#he a little confused but he got the spirit #its so good bc it can be super angsty of ghost really dreading whats been done to his sergeant and trying to make it right #or just go full crack treated seriously and have fun with it #i love just completely oblivious ghost #in any military context hes the smartest guy in the room #he always knows the play and has more experience than anyone #but stick him in the normal world? man is Lost #ghost just thinks hes had some kind of reconstruction surgery after being tortured and accepts thats what johnny looks like #bc hes never seen a pussy before #it takes years for soap to actually come out to him bc he just never thought to #hes seen him naked theyve literally slept together what else is there for him to say #then he shows him like a family album or something and ghosts just like ‘why arent you in any of these i only see girls’ #and he just goes ‘hang on a second’ #soap gets one of his sporadic periods one night and panics a little thinking it would weird ghost out or remind him that hes not cis #but ghost just thinks its a normal part of such a thorough reconstruction that hed bleed sometimes #and doesnt question it when soap grabs a pad out of his drawer bc ‘thats such a good way of handling the discharge my johnnys so smart’ #just really supportive ghost for the wrong reasons #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #we’re a team. ghost team #soapghost #ghostsoap #simon ghost riley #ghost cod #john soap mactavish #soap cod

So I was donating blood and was thinking of an AU where Billy knew he was Captain Marvel, knew how to access his powers but retained nothing of Marvel’s memories. A consequence of the magic is that the human mind can’t comprehend it so Billy transforms and essentially blacks out until he changes back. I can only imagine the sheer frustration of Bill having No Idea what he was up to as Marvel. His street buds think he’s the biggest Cap fanboy because he’s constantly tracking down down info on the heroes fights and missions in a desperate bid to understand. 

Marvel himself would be Billy but maybe he too has a hard time connecting to his mortal self’s memories. He knows he’s from Fawcett City, that he struggles and barely scrapes by under difficult circumstances but he really can’t recall any details or information about Bill’s life. He may even forget that his true self is child. Pretty ironic if Cap is voting down introducing child sidekicks to the League.

Freddy is shaking Billy down for info about what the Justice League is like and Bill is red faced from frustrated tears because he knows Nothing. He knows via interviews that the JLA loves Marvel, trusts him and talks to him alot but he doesn’t remember. Superman probably told Marvel his identity but does Bill know? Nope and its incredibly annoying.

#the slightly more angsty version of this AU is where Billy *doesn't* know about Marvel #and essentially gets his body hijacked to become random without his knowledge #he's so scared bc he'll black out and when he's aware again 4 days have passed and he has no idea what happened #but in this slightly happier version Bill is fully aware #he just cant retain anything he knows as Marvel #it will be super awkward when Bill's identity comes out #everyone is freaking and Bill is trying to calm them down like 'hi I know you're friends with Marvel and I'm Marvel but I know nothing' #Clark greets Bill as himself and is confused/saddened by bill's utter confusion on this random reporter chatting him up #the JLA has to reintroduce themselves to Bill #and keeps a running track of everything they told Marvel so they can update Billy #altho lash petitions to not tell Bill about that mission where Flash ran full speed into a lamppost #the JLA in general probably censors what they tell Bill trying to protect him as much as they can even if Billy is screaming at them #so yey maybe a little less nightmares and trauma in this AU but Bill is pulling his hair out in frustration

a tiny little ficlet based on this lovely comment from @queer4cryptids on this post! (i accidentally made it angsty, i’m so sorry!! but there’s comfort and gay yearning in there, i swear!) when the night falls low and settles against the side of the Earth; when the the dark begins to carry a certain weight, he shifts his stance. he lets himself breathe air he doesn't really need into lungs that exist simply by virtue of his inclination to breath. it's the same pattern Crowley's watched unfold a hundred million times times over—the stretching of a thread until it frays, three women, a set of blades; a wicked inevitability carried in the lines of time-weathered hands.

and still it never changes, never lessens the welling of grief that builds and breaks in his chest, that stagnates and stratifies like layers of sand upon gravel upon so many eons since he first fell from the sky and lost the right to mourn a woman hungry only for bread and a little kindness.

he leans back against a headstone, swallowing down a familiar hollowness. the sparrows have all taken root in the knots of tree trunks. the moon blinks back at him, clouds swaying like an eyelid closing to sleep.

he turns his face away from the light, sucks in breath for which he still has no need. the rough-hewn granite is going to scuff his coat; he knows this with the certainty of having lived in a world full of serrated edges for so many years. and yet he doesn't care. Crowley can't find it in him to give a damn because finally, finally he's there. he's there and he's real and tangible and it's been eleven months, two weeks, and four days since he's last felt the warmth of angelic skin so close to his own. not that he's been keeping count, of course. and Aziraphale's got that faraway look again. the one pressed into the lines of his face in the aftermath of a flood that tilted against the sky; the same one Crowley saw in the stark daylight of a death warrant unfurled and stamped with the name of the holy Mother herself. it's the same, hollow, teeth-gritted look Crowley himself wore as he stood on a hillside reeking of freshly-cut wood, bearing witness to yet another child of the Almighty thrown to the wolves. Aziraphale turns, then, and blue eyes meet black lenses meet amber-gold. "Crowley—" Aziraphale manages, choking it out in a half-whisper, like it hurts—like it scrapes his throat with bits of barbed wire. and, just like that, something in him is breaking and the oak trees are all whispering dangerous things and still, still he can't find a version of this story in which he doesn't lean closer, doesn't press himself forward into air that smells of earl grey tea and old books and something celestial and hallowed and holy underneath it all. and as though he's drowning—as though the moon doesn't watch them with a flickering gaze and the trees can't hear the brush of skin meeting skin—Aziraphale presses his fingertips to the side of Crowley's wrist. he moves no further. the air holds still, time seeming to freeze around them. it's intentional, he realizes; it's fire and it's heat and it's utterly fucking terrifying. even now, so far above ground, Crowley can nearly feel the weight of hellish eyes on his back. a shudder runs the length of his body. and yet. in the atomic space of that hungry, desperate, throat-baring yet, he turns his hand, trembling, to the side. he finds the angel's touch like a bird bearing North—like a compass forever calibrated to a single, fixed point.

"I know—" he rasps. “Angel, I know.” he twines his fingers with Aziraphale's, and it's positively electric. every cell in his tragically, wonderfully human body has turned pure gold, conducted and galvanized and sparking. a sharp, stilted inhale; a quiet anticipation carved out in the space between their pressed hands (and palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss...). the graveyard is still. the grief is there, still. the grief might always be there. but the sharp edges dull, the welling in his chest grows steady and slow and gentle. and the world becomes a little less difficult to bear with the two of them holding it up.

summer 1985, hawkins.

byler week 2023 | day iv: summer love song used

#byler #bylerweek2023 #Day 4 Summer Love #byler edit #byler gifs #mine #mine:gif #to get a more summer-esque vibe you should listen to the song! #creative process: i never have a creative process when it comes to gifsets. i tend to start my infamous laptop and run photoshop and see #what comes out of it. this time i really wanted to put some extra effort. when i make a gifset the first thing is finding out the vibes #i want to give to it. since it's summer love i wanted to have bright warm colors that recall summertime and i decided to use of course #footages from S3 - since it's the only season set in summertime - but of course it wouldn't be a gifset of mine if i didn't add a “gloomy” #vibe to it. that is why i spent an entire afternoon finding out a song that would give me summertime sadness kinda vibes and i found #“free with you” which is an incredible song with an incredible mv that i ofc linked in the post description. so #this gifset is all about summer love and it's meant to make you feel the love; the summer vibes; but at the same time i wanted it to be #a little angsty because 1st that's what S3 is about and 2nd - this is how i picture summer loves #i love to put this dualtity in my gifsets: vibrant colors and a really melancholic undertone that you can perceive just if you look twice

ambrosius showing up less than a minute after nimona and ballister did their confession-recording routine, and bursting into the room in the exact same way that nimona-as-ambrosius did just minutes earlier, heavily implies that if they hadn’t shown up to do that-or had waited even a minute longer to put their plan to action-he would be dead.

#nimona #depression-induced showerthoughts #someone had better write angsty fanfic where either everyone figures out they saved his life by complete accident #or where they don't show up until a little bit later #the only part of my brain that still works is hyper-awareness for any possibility of angst within anything i come into even brief contact w #even that part's pretty iffy

[sassy-stupid]

Guess who just, at 4am, decided to write a whole 1,5k drabble about barbarian Halsin JUST because I heard his barbarian shout and went 😳.

#it me #it's like angsty fluff #and i will prob continue it in smut later lmfao #lets be honest that is what my mind goes to with practically ANY fictional character so it is coming #but yeah #halsin x reader #tomorrow after I slept a little I'll check it over and post it #and then maybe #ill get to the other shit i had planned and half written out lmfao

Here's a little headcanon about Cyril because he's my favorite.

I have a headcanon that if someone is looking for Cyril, they probably won’t find him. And it’s not because he is good at hiding, although he is surprisingly good at hiding and being stealthy for a person who is 6 ft 8 in my AU, it’s because he hides in the most unexpected places like trees and cabinets.

Anyway, I also headcanon that the bookshelves in the University are so tall that someone could hide up there and never be found. So of course that's where Cyril goes to escape the chaos of the Tourney. He just sits on top of the bookshelves with his hibiscus tea and his alicornettes and reads his Guildocracy books.

#wilderlore #he calls it his happy place #(other than Cecily cuz she was spying on him) #Audrian is the only one who knows about it #cause Audrian made a little indent in the wall so that Cyril could sit up there and not have to worry about falling #and he just sits up there with his blankies and his books and be comfy and away from the chaos #and he has a bunch of books and fluffy blankies #and he just hangs out up there #and it’s so well hidden that he always wins hide and seek #and no one knows how he gets up there #cyril harlow #audrian keyes #cecily lloris #wilderlore headcanon #a cute little headcanon before TNC comes out #and we all just collectively cry #because we know it's gonna be really angsty

Random yes but thank u for making that frusan art awhile ago it's adorable and i love seeing more art of this underappreciated ship :D!!!

ahhh thank you!!! frusan is so underrated FOR REAL, i guess it's probably because after Islands they all but disappeared (like i think they were only shown twice after that and that's including in Fionna & Cake (which i actually missed when i watched it bc its such a brief glimpse)) but like. still. I actually have a little idea for another frusan drawing (frieda and susan talking on a roof grown-up edition) but I have to break up the dialogue into parts & think of more Susan Reactions so it's not just Frieda monologuing at her lol

#frieda is such a compelling character to me augh because seriously living on the islands sounds like. idk. scary in an existential way #like if I lived on that tiny(?) island always with the same people and didn't have hope that I would maybe someday get to explore someplace #new and meet new people. i would explode i think. #and frieda HAS hope & the drive to follow through with it #but then susan goes robo-mode and like surely any hope is just GONE after that #thats such a crazy interesting dynamic can't believe everyone else on earth isn't also insane about this #obviously it's not susan's fault that she went robo-mode but it's still recieved as a betrayal yk. so sad :( #and then susan went after finn & they probably all assumed she was dead #AHHH??? i can't even imagine how that would have felt for frieda?? like imagine you're trying to get off the islands and your favourite #person won't go with you but she helps you. but then she betrays you (not her fault but yk) and then (i'm assuming its not even that long #after) she's sent off the islands and she goes willingly #like wowww way to rub salt in the wound susan omg (i love susan this is not susan negativity) #my little angsty hc about that is like. frieda still holds a little bit of resentment towards her for what happened but she knows she #shouldn't because what if susan was right? what if she left the islands and it wasn't safe and she DIED? #but then also what if she isn't? what if she just left and it wasn't worth coming back? what if frieda wasn't worth coming back for? yanno #stuff like that. AGHHH hhh i love frieda #and then they go adventuring together and work it out and kiss on the mouth #uhhh i'll stop myself there before i write a whole essay in the tags (or maybe i already have ahahah...) but yeah. i love frusan :3

[skitskatdacat63]

catie hello :))) roman empire seb nando au?? saw the sketch you made during suzuka & would love to hear your thoughts!! <3

Aaaah Claire hello!!!! I think you're talking about this one, right?

I joked in the tags "Hadrian and Antonius who?????"so I guess that would be the basis??? Seb is a favorite lover of Fernando's and when he dies, Fernando deifies him 😥

This Seb is obv from a different au, but this would be how I'd vizualize them:

#GODDDDDDD ALTERNATE UNIVERSE - AGE CHANGE #could you imagine Aston Fernando with Toro Rosso Seb?????????? 🫠 #but Fernando would be like an older emperor whos very settled in his rule #and then this little twink comes out of nowhere and he falls for him #and then seb dies(retires) and fernando misses him so much AAAGGHHHH #sorry idk if you intended this ask to be made angsty but now it is :) #im just so obsessed with how fernando acted during the last few months of seb's career #hes used to this common presence in his life and he doesnt think too deeply about it #in au: hes had many lovers. how could this one be any different? #but then when its taken from him. thats the moment when he realizes just how important it was #in this au younger seb would revitalize him ig!! #hes a young senator and fernando sees himself in him #and wants to take care of him and treat him like he never was sob sob sob #anyways uh yeah yes those are my thoughts :) i am too tragic today #sorry i domt know why i always put all my deepest ideas and thoughts in the tags ajdkkf #catie.asks. #catie.rambling.txt #vettonso

[jojolimons]

that pokemon rejuvenation personality quiz really is accurate, got npcs using my they/them pronouns even tho i chose the boy option

#limon talks #nah im not saying im being misgendered #im assuming either its a bug or just written that way as a catch all #so far first impressions about 10 minutes in: funnily edgy #ik ppl want more serious plots but seeing characters threaten lives with pokemon kinda veers into dorkly territory. sorry. #also the prologue with the zorua and the pangoro just kinda screams 'cry over how angsty and tragic this is' #i guess the context of it being a bedtime story creates some dissonance #like bedtime stories are written as simple morals to read to children #didnt really get a moral out of it beyond maybe 'don't play *mean* pranks on your friends' #and ostensibly the point is to draw a clear parallel between maria and her family and pangoro and zorua #and not to make sense as a bedtime story first #but idk maybe the story could've been introduced in a different manner then #like at her school or smth #and then she comes home and gets sacrificed #dunno how id go about making pokemon convincingly intimidating #inherent limitation of the format i guess #then again gothitelle is not a strong start in terms of scary pokemon #its a little too goofy looking #maybe an alakazam? not very original but i think its a little less goofy

[sweetcreaturetm]

PLEASE I need a football au Steve like a safety or a corner and he’s super fast and Eddie does sports photography cause it pays the bills ya know? Anyway Steve is covering a receiver and tackles him and they stumble through the sideline and he lands on top of Eddie. And Steve’s like omfg I’m so fucking sorry but he has to get back to the game. And Eddie’s shook up but he’s like omfg that guy was so fucking hot. After the game Steve gets his name and shows up at his apartment and Eddie’s like omg and Steve’s like listen I’m so sorry I want to make sure you’re okay and Eddie’s like yeah the trainers checked me out I’m fine. And then Steve’s like trying not to leave and then he’s like… can I tell you a secret?

#and the secret is that he’s bi and is into Eddie #and nobody knows and he understands if Eddie doesn’t want go out with him since he hadn’t come out yet #but Eddie’s like uh yeah I want to go out #and whatever whatever they fall in love maybe some angsty outing or maybe some angsty Eddie’s a little antsy not being able to show Steve of #off #idk #steddie headcanon #steddie #athlete Steve #photographer Eddie #steve x eddie #also Steve plays for the colts I guess #but in my dreams he plays for the pats because I’m a pats girl #hate me cause you ain’t me #but also they haven’t been the best but I stand by my team
