Yeehaw
No time for chit chat we're watching The Wild West!
Dunno what's that music in the bg but it's a bop
Connor!! 
Karl: Not only am I still here, watch me do this! *Lays on the ground* Everyone: *Scared and shocked*
Jack Kanoff my beloved
Mason saying that Connor has a nice name and Jack saying "We're getting along quite nicely" is implying they met like a few hours ago and decided to make a team and rob a saloon
John's fingers barely work
"Jack Kanoff singning off"
Beere
Karl thinks John might be a minor
The town priest got shot and John says that "He'll probably be back in around three days"
Percy has a gambling addiction and doesn't know how to play card games, but also likes Snap
Percy had back pain problems but Karl fixed it!
Love Percy's little pet bee
Sherman is the only person who has a gun in this town
John says that the bandits robbed him once then came back 15 mins later and tried robbing him again (I'd like to think that the second time they came back to rob him, they came w/ Connor, teaching a new friend how to rob!)
Noone in this town pays taxes!
Billiam robbed this town, he claimed to be an investor!
Crops my beloved
Crops actually ate the priest
Karl said that Crops "can pick the fast one, his head looks pretty"
The gang thinks that Crops ate the orphan child (Tho we know that Billiam stole the kid)
Michael (Ron) my beloved
Michael got a fish on his head (He says it's a hat)
He got a chicken wife
Pretty sure Michael got some severe burns from all the fireworks
THE FIREWORKS KILLED THE BEE
The chicken is just stuck in place, they can't even move her
Michael just killed his wife
William my beloved
William is a regular at John's store!
Everyone in here is a regular at Sherman's jail!
Hhsdhjgd there's an actual twitch ad in the video oh my god
Percy just shot Michael, he didn't die tho
Crops ate the only doctor in town
Most of the gang are surprisingly good at shooting guns
John says he has steady hands, tho he seems to have pretty shaky hands
Karl: And you're going back to jail but with three heads to eat! Crops: I thought it was one Karl: Oh, yeah, one I meant Crops: Wait I'm going back to jail?
John just keeps giving money to Sherman even tho he owes Percy a debt
Unfortunately, Jack's wife is a democrat
Karl: Okay, listen, I know you guys are killers and robbers and.... republicans
Jack is also a cannibal
Jack and Crops seem to like each other (clc, cannibal loving cannibal)
Connor: Boss, I'm gonna do this for you, for the boys, I think yall been good friends to me and I'm gonna represent you here Jack: LMAO Sherman: Is that French
The bandit language apparently includes words like "lol", "lmfao", "XD" (Jack's favorite, Crops also likes it), ":p", ":3", "owo" (Jack's and Crops' favorite as well), "uwu" (Mason likes this one)
Jack: They're using hacks! Mason: Democratic hacks!
Karl @ Crops: You're irredeemably bad and honestly there's not much that you live for, and once you make it back, if you ever do, which is very unlikely, you're just gonna end up in prison for the rest of your life and I don't know where I was going with this, but good luck okay? Crops: You called me your man Karl: *Muah*
Jack thinks Crops has a nice ass
Mason likes looking at Jack's ass
Jack just gave Crops a lil kiss
Jack will be waiting for Crops in the afterlife!
Crops is eating Jack's dead body and Mason has Jack's head and Connor's boots
Jack in a ghostly voice: They killed me cuz I was a bad bitch Mason: He was a damn bad bitch I'll tell you what
Karl's full name is Twitch Dot TV Slash Karl Jacobs
Karl: Don't worry, it won't be your horse for long, cuz you can't possess anything once you're dead Mason: Well, the damn horse is dead, so no shit it ain't gonna be my horse for long, it's dead Karl: It could still be yours, just dead, it could be your dead horse
Mason and Sherman are violently drinking milk that belonged to John
Mason: I can't wait to see the life leave your pretty pretty eyes, Karl
Karl really just did the Alright I'm gonna head out now and left
And that's it! Bye!

Can you make a list on who you think is the most to least reliable of the RFA (+ Minor Trio if you want!) when it comes to pets 👀
gasp you know what yes (I've been wanting to make some lists for a while -maybe least to most bottom of each of the RFA characters LMAO-)
MysMe characters least to most reliable with a pet and what pet would they have:
11. Rika
LMFAO bet ya didn't expect that did ya!? Nah you probably did, anyway the reason why she's the least reliable for a pet it's kinda obvious, first of all, she would refuse to get her pet treatment when it almost turns blind and ma'am? Please help your dog???
Also if at any time the pet dies she would start another cult so let's not risk it with her. Instead of an animal maybe give her a rock instead pfttt (actually wait-no she'd probably throw it at our poor mint coloured hair boy just give her a dog plushy it smth she can't be trusted with alive things)
10. Saeyoung
You may be asking me, Amanda, why, Saeyoung absolutely loves cats he'd be a cool cat dad, and yes, you're right. But you also don't understand that this man's love for cats goes SO far that he will actually cause chaos all around him. He'd give the cat SO many treats, not only that, but he'd also cuddle them, and that's nice tight? Wrong. This man will try to stretch the cat, grab it and twirl it around, reenact the lion king and do the 'Simba' bit and everything. Not only that he'd completely use it to prank Zen and everyone else, overall, he'd be a great pet owner but it'd be too much chaos so let's just stick with loving cats from afar.
Also I feel like he'd get a snake for some reason, and he'd dress them up in like a fancy bowtie a hat, or an iguana or chameleon y'know? He'd go for the amphibian type :o
9. Ray
I love our boy, I really do, but honestly how do you expect him to take care of a dog if he can't take care of himself. 😢
Actually scratch that, if he had a dog he would definitely love it and spoil it, and we live for that but also:
honey focus on yourself too we don't want you to D I E
Maybe give him a hamster or smth, while he's hacking away and watching MC in their room the hamster will be spinning on it's wheel super happy
Or he can have some cute fishes 🐟🐠
And like his brother, because great minds think alike, maybe a chameleon. He'd be pretty scared of them at first but he found one under some flowers and decided to rescue it, and now he sort of ended up adopting it :D
Although I find it pretty unlikely that he'll get a pet, he's more into flowers anyway
(OH WAIT WHAT ABOUT BEES? YA LIKE JAZZ -im sorry pft but now I need to see Ray in like those bee farmer dress things lmao)
8. Zen
I could see him as the pet owner that takes their dogs on walks and such, but honestly, if he's allergic to cats he's probably allergic to other animals too, at least some with a lot of hair! Although I feel like he'd get one of those big dogs and he'd go on runs with it all the time. The dog would be like the ones that are mostly thought of as super dangerous or aggressive but it turns out they're a sweetheart. Either that or a poodle 🐩💀 (but like I said, he's probably allergic to animals with lots of hair.)
HOW ABOUT A PARROT? ZEN COULD TOTALLY PRACTICE HIS LINES AND SONGS WITH THE PARROT AJDNFBFB
7. Jihyun
Jihyun would be pretty good as a pet owner but honestly he'd be super nervous at everything at first. Welcome to the Jihyun apologizing to his pet show akdjdn. But would we trust him with a pet? He wasn't really able to take care of two teenage boys -although it was mostly because he was in a toxic relationship 💀
When he has his sight problems he could totally get those helper dogs? (Forgot what they're called I'm sorry T_T)
He'd probably get a more chill pet tho, maybe a cat (he probably likes them a lot too! Also they're pretty calming.) So he could have like the guide dog and a small kitty too!
6. Jaehee
She'd be an awesome pet mom lol. I don't think she'd get a cat after being traumatized from pet-sitting Elizabeth. Maybe she could get like a turtle 🐢
Or maybe a rat to reenact Ratatouille lmaoo
She wouldn't get big pets unless the MC wanted to adopt something (and if they're a couple, we all know what people who want kids but can't or just aren't able to adopt at the moment, do, they get DOGS AND CATS!!!)
So honestly she'd start understanding why Jumin pampers Elly so much, since your dogs basically your child now PFTTT
Maybe a bunny too? I could see her working with the bunny on her head lmao and that's adorable
Omg imagine her with a SNAKE, HOW BADASS WOULD THAT BE???
5. Suit Saeran
You may be wondering once again, WHAT AND WHY
Let me explain.
Suit would dffinetly get those scary and big dogs that have spiky collars and everything, and he'd probably call him something like Killer or Skull Destroyer, or maybe Blade lmao
And we all know he'd die for his dog. It's the only one he can trust ajdhdbdbd
He'd be like the bad boys that walk around with their dog everywhere growling at people (not just the dog, the two of them)
And "Spike" would be so well taken care of. Believers have to start doing draws to see who feeds the monster dog that always bites them PFTTT
The dog would also dffinetly know how to fight. It'd be cute if the only person he likes appart from Saeran tho is MC hehe
AND you cannot change my mind in this, ever since Saeran got "Dark Knight" (I'm experimenting with the dog names pfft) he's shown him a picture of Saeyoung and taught him to absolutely hate his guts, so Seven, buddy, maybe don't get to close to them lol
AND the backstory for this dog is that Saeran found him under some bushes, hurt, and the dog reminded him of when he was younger, so he took him in and that's how the doggie came to be :3
3. GE Saeran
Idk, he'd also get the normal-ish animals, like a bunny or a cat (he'd like how calming they are.)
He'd be awesome with animals too!
Also uhm, someone please draw him as a farmer AJDHDHD lmaoo that's the first thing that came to mind 😂
He'd be the person that likes animals but like....other people's animals? He'd love to see Elizabeth and such, but he wouldn't really want to have one (unless MC wanted to of course.) It's not that he doesn't like them, it's mostly because he feels more comfortable with other people's pets ajdjdbd
Also he doesn't want them to ruin the garden oop
3. In a tie with Saeran, Yoosung
I forgot about him and didn't want to change the numbers lmao
Yoosung is a vet, c'mon he knows how to deal with animals!
At first he'd be so freaking nervous and would be just like a helicopter parent, making sure the doggie is alright and such, but then he gets the hang of it and he's perfect.
We all know we got a bunny with him too in his GE :D so maybe a dog and a bunny! He'd have more than one pet I'll tell ya that.
2. Jumin
Listen he's the king alright? He pampers his cat SO much, and you can just TELL how much he loves Elly. We all stan a man that loves animals.
He'd probably get some exotic pets too, maybe a few horses and birds that are really exotic or something
But can you imagine him with like....a tiger PFT
He'd be like: omg this is a cat but bigger let me have one
It'd be like Sebastian from Black Butler lol
He'd also be up to a dog, it'd take a bit of convincing but if MC wants one then he'd snap his fingers and get them one immediately (I love this man he's so ADORABLE) and then they'd have two children and Zen wouldn't have to worry about just Elizabeth
1. Vanderwood
Yes! The one! The only!
He's the only one appart from Jaehee that has more than one braincell PFTTTTT
He'd have a pretty big and scary dog that would've an absolute sweetheart when you get to know them. Everyone at first is scared but the dog just wants to sleep and eat, that's all.
Vanderwood is super responsible, I mean after Saeyoung I'm sure a dog would be nothing. He'd also compare Seven to his dog lol "Not even Capitan America is that dirty!"
"you named your dog Capitan America...?"
"shut the hell up or I'm tasing you."
His dog would spend all day sleeping. Sometimes Vanderwood will take him on walks, and they really enjoy that time together.
Vanderwood romance route? Uh, no he's far too in love with his dog to be doing anything else PFT
And you cannot once again change my mind on this:
He talks to his dog when he's alone.
He will tell him about his day as he cooks or does the laundry. He'd be in an apron making some dinner and be all like:
"Ugh, today I had to take care of that no-good for nothing guy again. It's incredible how messy his house can get in just a matter of hours! Not only that, he wasn't eating properly again, that idiot. I had to practically drag him out of his chair and make him eat some food. Not that I'm worried. It'd just be a hassle to have to find another hacker as good as him. Seriously that guy...."
And the dog would be like excuse me do I look like your therapist please just give me food lolol

i have a thought to express, feel free to scroll past.
i’m gonna discuss rape and sexual abuse in this post. it’s also long because i don’t really have a conclusion, it’s just some thoughts. 
so i was looking into that reality show that facilitated shane dawson’s horrible movie “not cool” and i stumbled across a reddit thread posted by someone who was a fan of his as a preteen. the OP alleged that shane’s content contributed to them developing some serious issues including body dysmorphia and the normalization of sexual behavior involving children. 
some of the comments were in support and agreement, but a large amount of them were like, “where were your parents? it’s not shane’s job to police what you see online. it’s not his fault you were too young for his content.” 
now, shane was well aware from the jump that his fans were mostly kids and teens - he talked about it multiple times - but that’s not what this post is about. this post is about that particular argument, which does not sit well with me.
it reminded me of a couple years ago when i made a very critical post about c*ptive prince. 
pause: i want to make it crystal clear that i am not drawing a comparison between people who like cp and shane dawson. i’m not mad anymore, so i am not making this post making a value judgment on cp or fans of it, positive or negative. 
specifically, i was really bothered by the way cp content was posted and shared with no mention of or reference to the actual material. people were calling it a queer romance. it was a little-known series by a little-known author, so there were no synopses anywhere online, only the summary you’d see on the back of the book. so people would seek out cp thinking it was a romance and be blindsided by the fact that, spoilers, the story is set in a fantasy world where child rape is a major tenet of society. the scenes are explicit, detailed, and many. it’s not a thing that happens once or twice and is a major plot point, it’s a thing that happens multiple times in every chapter and is just kind of a thing that’s going on. if you’ve ever read twilight, i would compare the presence of rape in cp to the presence of rain in twilight.
like, that’s how often it happened, that’s how it was treated. sometimes with indifference, sometimes with a negative opinion, sometimes it caused problems, bella talks about it every two pages. it is a very rapey series. 
and people like, did not want to discuss this. they were like, “the characters decide the rape is bad in the end. and that’s not even what the story is about, it just happens in the story. i don’t know what to tell you.” like... people were not receptive to any kind of conversation about this topic lmfao, it was very touchy. they wanted to acknowledge that rape itself is bad, and then they wanted the subject closed. 
now, why is this a problem? i read the books. there were parts i enjoyed, and there were parts i didn’t enjoy. i’m not gonna reread them, but i’m still game to talk about it. ultimately i wanted to be able to talk about books with a friend of mine, and while i was like, “yikes, this is a lot of rape, was not expecting the volume of rape,” it didn’t occur to me this would be a pervasive issue at all until a different friend of mine happened upon it. this other friend was a rape survivor, and i happened to know she would find this content very upsetting. when she said she was thinking of buying the book, i was like, “halt, you know what happens in it, right?” 
nope! she didn’t. she saw cute fanart and a ficlet on her dash, somebody told her it was a queer romance. nowhere was there any indicator in summaries online or the posts she was seeing that the book would describe a person being drugged and sexually abused. she was pretty relieved that i’d warned her and shaken that that’s what happens in the books lmao. she would never have guessed. the cp fandom was made up of people who loved the main pairing, and they’d talk about them being in love and draw them being in love, and it felt like everybody was just acting like the rape wasn’t even present in the books lmao. 
pause: i didn’t go in the tags. this is not representative of the fandom as a whole. this is just my and my friend’s experience of it as passive internetgoers.
people got uncomfortable and a little defensive if i brought it up. they’d agree to tag for cp, but if you don’t know what cp is about, that isn’t helpful information. like that post that’s like, “waterboarding at guantanamo bay sounds like a lot of fun if you don’t know what either of those things are” lmao. if you don’t know what cp is about, tagging for it just tells you what it’s called. and it very clearly ruined everyone’s fun if i talked about this. 
so that’s what i was mad about, i was mad that i felt as though there was no recourse here, and i was mad because i felt like the cp fandom was the emperor’s new clothes. nobody was acting like it even existed and everybody got uncomfortable if i brought it up, like, i legitimately wondered at some point if i had somehow accidentally read a kinky rewrite of it, that the real version did not have rape in it and nobody knew what i was talking about. i felt like i was going crazy and i got shitty in the middle of the night one time, and wrote that post. 
i ultimately deleted it, so i do not remember how it was worded; but i do recall that it was a venting post, it was not intended to reach a wider audience. i was not trying to convince anyone in that moment, i was just talking shit. so i can bet that it probably came across as very judgmental and unkind. 
i made a bunch of people very angry with that post. somebody got thousands of notes by reblogging with an impassioned smackdown saying basically what those redditors were saying about shane - it’s not their job to police what people see online. it’s not their fault you were unprepared for cp. 
i do not think this is a nuanced enough argument because i do not think it acknowledges that not all content is created equal. 
i even got an anon ask in good faith saying, well, a huge trigger for me is body horror, and people will draw or reblog stuff with body horror in it, and i can’t hold that against them. 
and like, no, you can’t, but body horror is not the same as rape or child sexual abuse. body horror isn’t the same as sex trafficking. right? like those things aren’t comparable in the way that i think the anon was wanting them to be. they were saying that both of these are common triggers that people would want tagged and be unable to move past in media, you know? and i get that, i got what they were saying. 
kind of like that cartoonist who wrote a spooky horror comic a while ago and somebody sent them an ask being like, “that was really scary, you usually post fun comics, this was damaging, unfollowed :/” like obviously a stranger’s fear of spooky things is not something he should be expected to take on on his own blog lmao. i am deeply afraid of ghosts, by the way. 
but according to rainn.org, 1 in 5 women experience rape in their lifetime. 1 in 5 women are not frightened by literal ghosts in their lifetime. 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 7 boys aren’t body horrored. body horror and ghosts aren’t used on a global scale as tools to control and abuse people and they do not have the same connotations of shame, degradation, and control. the things are not the same. 
i don’t have an easy answer. i can’t wave my magic wand and make people not enjoy the rape erotica, nor was that my goal in the first place. i wasn’t clutching my pearls like, “how dare you! do not draw this art! think of the children!” and i don’t know how else i would have solved the problem, aside from having a weird disclaimer under your art of two dudes cuddling that says “warning, these dudes are from a book that’s got several thousand words of explicit rape in it, and i know that, you’re not the only one seeing that,” like that’s a lot and i get it. 
i don’t have an easy answer because there isn’t one. i felt like “well, that’s not my problem” was an easy answer. 
as i get older, the more responsibility i have as an adult online to maintain boundaries between me and minors, for example. i am not responsible for their internet experience and they can’t get mad at me for cussing or writing about gay werewolves on my blog, but i do have to be mindful of that context if i’m interacting with someone online. that’s where the complexity comes in. you can’t wash your hands of the context of the things you say and do online. 
just how to solve these problems, i did not know then and i do not know now. i guess we take it on a case by case basis. 
if you’re curious about shane dawson and his horrible movie, by the way, this guy did a few funny videos about the horrible movie and this guy did a not funny but comprehensive breakdown of shane and his career. 
and i tried to tint my eyebrows for the first time the other day, i have red hair and my eyebrows are darker than my hair for some reason, so i tried to use an eyebrow tint to lift my brows just like, a shade, so be closer to my hair? but in doing this i discovered that my eyebrows are a mixture of red and brown? 
so the red hairs lifted to a sunny orange, and the brown hairs stayed brown. so my eyebrows are fully like, calico right now. boom, orange juice, that’s life

Oliver’s Route part 7
Initial ramblings for the first seven parts!
What I can say up front is that I’m really loving Oliver’s route so far
I just finished part 7 and
I
am
H O L L E R I N G
LMFAO
When Alice opened the door and it was Jonah and Edgar outside in their regular attire I DIED. Alice just slamming the door on them was BIG MOOD LOL.
The transition from having a soft heart-to-heart with lil Oliver to the Red Army was incredible. Excellent build-up from the prior parts with other customers and knocks coming because I honestly did not expect them at the moment. The dialogue is priceless. Jonah coming to apologize for Edgar’s behavior, but Edgar just smiling and pointing out how Jonah, who put handcuffs on Alice, is apologizing is hysterical. Jonah's confidence is astounding and I love him so much.
Oliver’s “You have to knock his block off’ was fabulous. Although it sounds like we’re not going to be fighting Jonah but rather going on a date with Jonah in part 8 (the summary says “I went on a date with Jonah!?”) and I’m crying lmao I’m so excited but that will have to wait for tomorrow.
Winding back a bit though!
I love how Alice shows she can give as good as she can take when it comes to Oliver’s insults. She’s still taking a lot more than she’s giving but it’s great when she tries lol Oliver’s always been one of my favorites ever since I first started Ikerev but it pained me to see Alice take the hits and fumble the retorts. This route is showing Alice with some fun and relatable internal thoughts! Very relatable!
The Mousse introduction was super cute with the pillow hat! It was also a wonderful display of Oliver’s dedication in that he gave his all to make what Alice saw as something silly. And even while she was hemming and hawing over fashion sense, I positively loved Oliver pointing out that hats are made to be looked at.
Oliver balances being perhaps the most sensible character in the whole game along with being the most creative as he brings sleeping hats and magical weapons that can make a man talk like a chicken to life. I appreciate that the writers let these two aspects exist together. It also explains why Oliver is so often annoyed with Alice: he uses his imagination every day.
So it was a delight to see that to get his imagination running means hanging out with other kids! I wish we had images for Phillips and Kevin. There’s just something really sweet those two kids, who by the sound of it are lil Oliver’s “age,” being his friends. Oliver chastises Alice to not treat him like a kid because she demeans him when she does it. This isn’t true when these other kids treat him like a kid. Kevin and Phillips are in the poorer working class so I can only imagine how cool, for a lack of a better term, Oliver is in their eyes because he’s smart and successful. But it doesn’t just go one-way. We see Oliver complimenting and admiring back, such as when he says “Not everyone is as good at swimming as you are. I like the way you think, though” to Phillips -- and he means it.
While Alice is playing London Bridge is Falling Down, Oliver is sitting out because obviously he’s not actually a child, but Phillips sits out with him.
Oliver: “Why don’t you try playing the game with the others?”
Phillips: “I will if you will, Oliver.”
I’m sorry not sorry but I’m absolutely charmed by how wholesome this all is. That Oliver can banter with the kids without demeaning them (that is to say, not treating them how he hates being treated by adults) makes me very happy.
Basically the whole school scene was fantastic and I was laughing the whole time when Alice realized she had to teach. Oliver, you are terrible! (And I love it!) I’m probably still in the minority but my favorite new guy is Dean, so seeing him with the kids was also adorable. “Monster teacher” with the tickling attack, indeed! I also love his expressions. They are quite well-done and rather soft and subtle. I need to go back through Zero’s route to get his scenes there because I’d love to see how his expressions change while he’s talking about Edgar and Zero.
I already made a post about it so I won’t bog it down here, but I’m underwhelmed with Dalim taking Amon’s spot when talking to Lancelot... Although the scene in this route did come across as though Dalim might be helping Lancelot, as he said something to the effect of convincing Amon of Lancelot’s plans. It just feels like his presence is weakening the intensity of the Amon vs Lancelot subplot but I’ll hold my judgement until the end!
But we’re still at the beginning and I still have to talk about EDGAR!
I love the Red Army, friends, I love them so much. The fact that Oliver spotted the fake Black Army soldier because he was too... clean? groomed?? makes me laugh. Bravo for Edgar’s soldier getting Alice to walk, of her own volition, all the way from Blanc’s house to the Red Bridge!
Walked her right into Edgar’s loving arms (´∀`)♡
OK, not quite, but he was there and Alice was there and he was smiling and he was offering jellybeans and everything was lovely (for me, not for Alice, obviously lol). I loved how lax Edgar was about the whole thing. Lancelot told him not to make a scene and he was upholding that to the letter.
One big thing that is delighting me about this route is how it’s throwing back to other routes.
Jonah is coming at Alice and expecting to make her fall in love with him by taking her out on dates -- just like he did in his route.
Edgar is coming at Alice reminding her of how far away Black Army HQ is compared to Red Army HQ, how late it is getting, how tired she must be from all that walking, and that she is his guest -- just like he did in his own route.
There are no Black Army soldiers around for Edgar to threaten to gain her quiet compliance, so I have to wonder what his strategy would have been to get her across the bridge without making a scene. They were at a stalemate...
I’m still going to have to pretend that Oliver didn’t just pop out of thin air but rather Edgar saw him approaching and allowed it, because it’s the only thing that makes sense to me. We know, from multiple routes, that Edgar is rather unbeatable. Oliver has no obvious weapons on him. Even though he makes weapons, does he ever carry any on him? Would Edgar be aware of them if he did? Does Edgar know that Oliver is one of Kyle’s drinking buddies?
But for all intents and purposes, Oliver is a civilian. While Edgar was on a mission for the King of Hearts and his orders were to not make a scene, I like to think Edgar let Oliver and Alice go in part because Edgar just didn’t want to fight him. There’s no fun in fighting a civilian and also Edgar doesn’t actually want to hurt innocent people. Or maybe my heart is just too soft for him lol Nonetheless, he shrugs it off, accepts the loss, and heads home without much argument. (Edgar is so graceful and I love it.) The narrative gives us a sense that he’s not happy about this and/or he’ll be back to finish the job, though.
I hope they let us see what game Edgar is playing in this route! I’m back to laughing over him and Jonah showing up at Oliver’s doorstep though. Edgar going from being the Big Bad in one scene to this silly absurdity gives me life. The narrative did warn us but I wasn’t expecting this lmao
This is Oliver’s route though so I really should focus on the leading man! Lil Oliver is fun but Handsome Oliver is where it is at and I’m ready to be rescued all night every night~ His display in front of the Black Army when he brought her home after she escaped Edgar was perfection. Holding her hand? Wrapping his arms around her?? Hugging her to his chest in front of everyone???
Please keep up the good work, my good sir!

there’s so, so, SO much nonsense surrounding this game that i’m gonna do my best to separate it into digestible bits, with its own categories. even then this is... wow. it’s big.
Warning tags will be added at the start of every section, but the general gist is: incest, pedophilia mentions, fetishization of rape and abuse, fetishization of mlm, fetishization of people of color, racism, ableism, nb erasure and transphobia. aside of the warnings, this post will also touch upon Scummy Business Practices
let’s get going
Dana Rune’s and Elle’s lack of moral fiber: #incest #pedophilia#rape and abuse fetishization #homophobia
tl;dr: dana loves incest porn, elle loves guy on guy rape, and the both of them are friends with at least one pedophile
dana rune has run, is still running an incest zine (please visit my faq on what i think about “thats not really incest” and “it’s just fictional!”). The Arcana, as a dev team, clearly does not care, as shown in their e-mail responses.
dana also very much doesn’t care and has reacted to any criticism on this by dismissing people and blocking actual incest victims who tried to contact her about it claiming it was for her “mental health”
in some tweets she claims she “interprets” the characters as not siblings, but she never really cared enough to cover her ass when it all began (she happily admits she’d “cross the incest line”)
dana has commissioned artists who also ship incest, draw near-pedophilic art that’s supposed to pass as acceptable because the character involved is supposedly not a minor despite looking like a child down to wearing pigtails (the character is also wearing a racist-ass belly dancer outfit), AND even made white-washed fanart of The Arcana.
dana follows twitter user kapymui who also produces incestuous Fire Emblem art
dana has retweeted omocat long after it came out that omocat is, at the very least, consuming pedophilic content (on “omocat didn’t know what shota meant!”: yes they did)
moving on, elle has a long, long, LONG history of fetishizing mlm and the rape and abuse that comes with yaoi and had a rich, RICH “yaoi” tag before they deleted their tumblr
they curiously deleted their tumblr right after i made this reblog
shortly after that, tumblr user thalassiq remade and started attacking and insulting any blogs criticizing them - even people providing support in IMs. Since this doesn’t match Dana and Elle’s normal pity parties I’m personally willing to believe they were just a person wanting to start shit - but it’s so telling how Elle used this chance to dismiss everyone who disagrees with them by calling them “children” and did not even bother to offer a kind word to people who were harassed and even had their trauma mocked by this person. It costs 0 dollars to say “that was not me but I’m sorry about people who were hurt.”
Dana and Elle are close with Ava’s Demon creator Michelle Czajkowski aka that one person who endorses child porn of her characters, and even had her draw a promo image for the game. Michelle has been creating highly sexualized content of her minor characters for a while now.
ok so elle and dana are gross freaks, how is that related to the game?
oh it’s very very related
Dana Rune’s and Elle’s lack of moral fiber that’s Actually Inside The Game or The Game’s Blog: now with more #racism #fetishization of poc and mlm #whitewashing #fat hate #pedophilia #nb erasure #transphobia
tl;dr: the arcana is filled to the brim with racism! so much of it! haha holy shit! and that’s not even where it ends!!!
their game is rated PG-13 but includes incredibly sexual situations such as Julian making this fucking face while getting off on pain. This isn’t the only time Dana and Elle use their videogame aimed at young teens to showcase their kinks and fetishes. I have no issue with NSFW or titillating content, as long as it’s rated accordingly. This content is NOT and it’s a blatant disregard for their audience just to have a larger, more pliable demographic and have more money sent their way.
if you start your argument with “well, teenagers look at porn” 1. shut up 2. theres a HUGE difference between teenagers going after adult content aimed at adults, and adults creating content they know will be seen by kids barely starting puberty
as pointed above, dana has 0 qualms literally commissioning people who make whitewashed fanart of her own fucking game that’s supposed to be all about the inclusivity and safe spaces
thearcanagame blog has a pattern of reblogging whitewashed fanart (before you come in swinging with the good ole “ITS THE LIGHTING”: 1. no it isnt 2. the artist should’ve picked better lightning then 3. i draw and post shit online too so dont come telling me i just dont understaaaand),
fanart of their fat characters showed skinnier than they are in their sprites (although to be real for a moment - Portia is curvy at most and them behaving she’s fat rep is HILARIOUS).
going back to NSFW content: nadia and asra are overwhemlingly sexualized in the game, and were the first to have sexualized CGs and sprites introduced.
CGs: Asra’s here, here aND HERE, Nadia’s here with a NSFW warning because she’s just got her whole fucking ass out. Sprites: Asra’s thank god for whoever compiled it all in one image, Nadia’s and once again, NSFW warning lmfao!
Julian’s sprites on the other hand are noticeably tamer, including the one where he’s fucking strapped in leather. His only sexual (NSFW warning because its literally softcore tentacle porn WHICH, ONCE AGAIN, SHOULDN’T BE PUT IN A GAME AIMED AT 13YOS) CGs were also included months after Nadia and Asra received any of theirs.
Through all of the updates, people have constantly requested that Asra and Nadia’s sexualization be toned down, and time after time The Arcana just churned out fetishistic, hypersexualized content at an absurd rate, especially when compared to the one white love interest.
Oh, speaking of the one white love interest: Julian is based off of Jeff Goldblum (this is not spectulation - they p much bring it up at any given time) but like. If Jeff Goldblum was white. They base their favorite love interest off their supposed favorite man in the world but casually leave his skin tone behind. Lmao.
they also play favorites very obviously - in the prologue, Nadia and Asra have a romance paid scene each. Julian has a scene... that requires no coins. Julian was also the first LI to receive three CGs, two of them requiring no coins, while both Asra’s and Nadia’s first CGs were behind a paywall
Dana and Elle have been notoriously skittish about confirming or denying their characters’ ethnicities. After hyping for weeks on thearcanagame that they would confirm the character’s races they basically made a post that amounted to “well they’re not white lol!”
they only relented after the perfectly understandable outrage... and posted a thread about it on Elle’s twitter. Nothing on the actual thearcanagame blog. Anyway, here’s the thread. Note how there’s mention of Julian being Jeff Goldblum... but nothing about him and Portia being Jewish (or “fantasy Jewish” as it were).
The one time they did confirm their jewishness dana then backpedaled and said she shouldn’t have done that lol.
another fun tidbit of how well The Arcana handles race and how much it cares about feedback from fans: an ask was sent about an anon begging for Nadia to step on them. The blog, with the finesse of a bunch of horny dumbasses, didn’t just publish the ask, but approved of it (even though the fans of color had long, long, LONG been telling everyone not to fetishize Nadia into a “step on me kween” wet dream). People were outraged, of course, and the blog ~apologized~ and said they were still learning.... then a new chapter included a scene of Nadia stepping on the Apprentice. 🙃
not to mention elle, on their twitter, made a passive aggressive “women can be doms?” tweet, trying to twist it into a “yr oppressing women” angle (when the issue is that women of color are always constantly portrayed as aggressive and domineering)
Now for a wombo combo of racism and Elle’s fetishization of mlm:
the devs have spoken at length of how Julian’s and Asra’s relationship was quite unhealthy. In a paid scene in Asra’s route, they’re depicted as Asra being disgusted w Julian touching him+Julian following Asra to his shop when Asra refused his offer to go with him (aka julian... stalked him lmfao).
.......... this scene is promptly followed by a highly sexual scenario where Julian’s pain fetish is played up. Remember how this game is rated PG-13? Me neither. Asra’s previous disgust with Julian is also forgotten, for some reason (and by some reason i mean Elle wants to make them fuck w/o buildup or logic).
Then Asra’s route has yet another paid scene dedicated to Asrian, even though he’s supposed to not even like Julian! And be head over heels with the Apprentice! But Elle just has to make these two be entangled despite insisting their relationship was not good for either of them!
Now here’s the kicker: Julian doesn’t have any paid scenes related to his romance with Asra. Note how it’s one of the brown LIs whose route is highjacked by the white LI, but not vice versa. Hmmmmm.
Now, on the topic of Asra: thearcanagame has said repeatedly that he’s nb and uses he/him pronouns, and promised (since last year) that there would be dialogue where he speaks about his gender
as of the making of this post such dialogue still does not exist
so basically asra is the nb to dumbledore’s gay: anyone who just plays the game w/o keeping up with the official blog has no idea of what asra’s gender is supposed to be.
aka he’s not nb. he’s just a cis guy. the arcana just doesn’t want to put its money where its mouth is, i dont care if elle is nb themself. the team made a promise which has not been fulfilled yet and i suspect will not be.
instead, our introduction to canon nb characters is... these two.
By “these two” i mean neither vulgora nor valdemar are even fucking human, and stick out like sore thumbs with their monstruousness.
so our nb rep is... non-human villains. a few books later one of Nadia’s sisters with they/them pronouns shows up, but that’s too little too late on top of the fact that we should’ve known Asra was nb from the first to begin with. It’s a fucking embarrassment and an insult.
at least two villains are visibly disabled (Lucio’s missing arm and Volta’s blind eye+intentionally asymmetrical face). Julian’s eye doesn’t count because, spoilers, he’s not lacking an eye and even if he was it’d still be hidden behind a dashing eyepatch instead of grotesquely displayed as a sign of his lacking morality.
BUT WAIT! IT DOESN’T EVEN END THERE!
The Arcana Exploits The App Business Model To Price Their Full Game at $500, $1000 if the three extra routes make it out, and they never delivered their Kickstarter rewards:
tl;dr: you heard me
the original price per route was planned on being $1.99
they took that “subject to change” really seriously, it seems, because now each route, once the game is fully out, is estimated to cost around $170 each.
both those screenshots are taken from this post which explains in detail just how truly scummy all of The Arcana’s business model and decisions are: https://mysticmicrotransactions.tumblr.com/post/174308723344/dishonesty-from-the-arcana
the tl;dr is basically what’s listed in the beginning of this section, but other highlights from that post are: the use of addictive gambling mechanics such the Wheel of Fortune, and the dazzling calls to action in the new mini-game.
something that The Arcana supporters forget (or choose to ignore) is the fact that for a long, long time the game did not have the mini-game or the log-in rewards for coins. Players depended only on the gambling of the WoF or paying absurd amounts of money for the new chapters.
the devs went from playing the victims who were unable of controlling prices to (as spoken of in the link from mysticmicrotransactions) saying the making of the game (a pathetic little app game backed by a studio and a kickstarter) justifies the prices
they also gave people false hope about maybe changing the prices in the future, all while bleeding money from loyal players in “micro” transactions
the arcana literally added a $99.99 coins option on their latest update
in case it hasn’t sunk in yet: you can pay a hundred dollars upfront to the arcana, and you still will not have access to the whole game
there is no defense to this
none
“it’s free stop whining” let me explain:
“spend months on end accumulating fake currency or pay hundreds of dollars up-front to be able to play” is a scummy business model no matter how you look at it
if i can spend $60 upfront to play an AAA game there’s no excuse to demand more than that for a game with much smaller and, honestly, inferior content
the combination of there being already far and few games featuring lgbt characters and characters of color AND the little cult of personality set up by Dana and Elle makes people feel that spending money to support them is an acceptable expense.
it’s not
manipulating people into spending ridiculous amounts of money and then claiming “it’s their choice” is just scummy business, baby, and thats all the arcana does
the devs are brats who instead of admitting $500 is absurd for a game instead write petty little caricatures into their game - like, lbr: dana, elle, if i could afford diamonds in my hair i wouldn’t have even bothered with your shitstain of a game
despite bragging that ppl would get the full story w/o needing to pay, the paid scenes are pretty much required - the first few books of julian’s route have no romance without accessing any of the paid options. you dont even get so much as a kiss in without handing coins over. many, many people were baffled when julian had a teary break-up scene when from their perspective they hadn’t even started building a relationship.
wow that’s more than i ever thought it’d be
and i’ve been aware of their bullshit for near a whole year now!
i don’t have much of a note to end this on, other than: the arcana just isn’t even that good. it suffers from weak writing, pathetic character development and above all actually harmful content. do not try to argue with me on any of these points unless you’ve read all of that, because whatever you have to say i’ve likely mentioned before. if you still are that determined to yell at a me on the internet, please preface your argument with the phrase “I’m a pee pee poo poo man” so I know you’ve read everything in here. thank you!

2. What’s your type?
Oh fuck. This is... I don’t really have a type in particular? I easily crush on anyone pretty much. But if I had to give an answer for girls, I guess most common is shorter hair, and/or different colored hair? But it’s obviously not just that. I like all girls p much. Guys, however? Very picky. Like, extremely. 
3. do you want kids? (I’m also adding 4: if you do, will you adopt or use some other form of child birth? because i end up talking about it too lol)
I mean, yeah I do. Mainly because I practically grew up raising my younger siblings so it... Just makes sense? But I wouldn’t be mad if my S/O doesn’t? But to hit on question 4 (see, told ya. Should’ve asked it tbh) I’d rather adopt? Unless my S/O really wants to go through the whole pregnancy thing, then maybe? But honestly that’s their decision to make, not mine, y’know?
6. describe your experience having sex for the first time (were you nervous? or was it easy peasy?)
LMFAO! I’ve never kissed anyone on the lips much less do the diddly. But, and here’s where the (RAPE TW) Comes into play, I’ve experienced 2 situations where I have received nonconsensual blowjobs? But I think that’s it? And I mean, one situation I didn’t exactly comprehend fully but didn’t mind? (Keep in mind, I was 8, she was 13 or 14? So there was definitely an imbalance but she was also underage so idk) The other one was that one time I had a sleepover with my ex-best friend and then woke up to him giving me the most painful head ever? I pretended to stay asleep, of course, because wtf do you do in that situation? I still see him though, but we don’t really talk anymore. I never truly confronted him though. But I also ended up forgiving both of them I guess? Which is why I don’t really mind talking about it anymore? Although I don’t think I ever did? 
AANYWAY MOVING ON TO HAPPIER QUESTIONS!!!
12. whats a turn off you look for before you start officially dating someone
Idk... An asshat, bigot, republican, racist, sexist, generally anyone who’s a piece of garbage? That’s basically it. Don’t be an ass and you should be fine.
15. (if attracted to more than one gender) do you have different “types” for different genders?
I mean, I kinda went into it above, but I’d say I’m a very harsh critic when it comes to men. Girls? Any and all girls are fuckin great! Guys? Most are trash. Consider this: if I’m Gordon Ramsey, girls are Hell’s Kitchen UK, where the most minor inconveniences are shit like undersalted food or like menu is a little weird. Men? Hell’s kitchen US. There are cockroaches everywhere, food is rotting, the owner is a drunk. Occasionally, you come across an okay US restaurant that’s just struggling a little. Occasionally. Okay, spiel over.
17. night club gay or cafe gay?
Cafe gay. I like to party too, but like... Cafes are nice and relaxing. Good atmosphere. Plus, good writing environment lmao.
19. video game gay, book gay, or movie gay?
WHY?!?!?! I... CAN’T WE LIKE ALL THE THINGS? ALL THE ABOVE I’M FUCKIN BI YOU CAN’T ASK ME TO MAKE CHOICES LIKE THIS!!!
24. have you ever been heartbroken?
Oh hell yeah. (twice? I guess?) One was way back in like middle school, my ex-gf from Russia apparently cheated on me with my best friend? And... I... Just happened to find them together my second trip back to visit family? I mean, to be fair, I knew it wouldn’t last, and I think I was going to break it off during those 3 weeks I was there but still? It still hurt? The second one was (what I considered) my first serious relationship. It was in high school, and I just got over (the above) so I finally gathered up the courage to ask her out one day when we were hanging out her first day back from a long trip she took. And everything seemed to be fine? I was happy, I thought she was too? (We only went one one official date I think) but it was nice. We never became exclusive tbh. I figured that was fine, though. Then I asked her out to go for a Valentine’s day date (I had a pretty elaborate date planned out tbh) and... then she dumped me? Keep in mind I don’t even think it lasted 2 months? And so I spent the next 2-3 months being more depressed than ever (this is the period of time where everything shitty happened. we had to put down our dog because of old age, and the cat that was mine since I was a little kid that we had to leave in Russia died because my aunt left him in the cold to freeze one night, so it wasn’t just a bad heartbreak lol, I think that was the lowest point I’ve ever been) And I think what made it worse was that like 2 weeks after she ended things, she was dating another dude (who I always thought was an ass, tbh) which didn’t exactly make me feel better lol. Sorry, I really went on a full rant again. And once again, I’ve completely forgiven both parties in this regard. It took ages to get over though, and after starving myself for months, I ended up gaining a helluva lot of wait since then. (Here is the breakdown: Started off at 160, dropped to a solid 145 in 3 months, then was quite a bit over 200 by the end of senior year of HS. I’m like 220 now, and that’s after I shedded a bit of weight) Anyway sorry, I try not to be depressing I swear!
26. favourite lgb musician/band
HAYLEY KIYOKO IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE MY FAVOURITE!!!! I SWEAR! I’ve been binging her music. And I mean. Nonstop. Feelings, Girls like Girls, and Pretty Girl are some of my favourites but they’re all great tbh.
Other artists that I like that are LGBT: Superfruit! (And Hozier should probably count) Also I really like Tyler, the Creator. And I’m sure I’m forgetting some lmao.
28. are you out? if so how did you come out?  
To most if not all of my friends? Yes. Some classmates? Also yes. Parents? Nope. Won’t do it for the longest time. My mom is hardcore homophobic. My dad’d be cool with it. I’m just afraid of excommunication or some shit. Idk tho. When I’m old enough/ when I date a dude I guess?

What is this Keroro thing you're drawing? :0
Anonymous said: Ooh! What’s Keroro Gunsou??
OKAY OKAY SO
This got really long sorry but
It’s from this series called Sgt Frog/Keroro Gunsou (I refer to it as the latter, since I prefer the sub to the dub)! It’s a series that’s been with me for a very very long time, probably one of the first anime shows I watched back in middle school…it’s like, super important to me and I love it a lot :’)
It’s about these alien frog invaders called the Keroro Platoon! They’re trying to invade Earth (they call it Pekopon) but they absolutely SUCK at it lmfao
So, for our main cast of characters we have:
Keroro: The leader of the platoon! He’s the green one. He’s absolutely useless and prefers to laze around reading manga and spending his army savings on Gundam models rather than fulfilling his mission to invade the planet. He’s sort of a prisoner to the Hinata family, and their youngest child, Fuyuki, is his best friend. Keroro’s come close to succeeding in invasion multiple times, but what usually stops him is either Fuyuki’s terrifying older sister Natsumi, who beats the shit out of him lol, or Fuyuki pulling the friendship card. Keroro literally cannot resist the puppy dog eyes and the guilt trip when Fuyuki pulls it RIPKeroro will literally stop at nothing to protect Fuyuki if he’s in danger, even if it means going against his superiors. That’s how strong their friendship is! While Keroro is terrible and useless most of the time when he gets serious about things he gets shit done. Like. Do not underestimate him, holy shit, because he is WAY more capable than you think. When he gets serious…DAYUM
Fuyuki Hinata: Keroro’s best friend! He’s a human and he’s fascinated with the occult! While he sucks at sports and isn’t physically strong he’s really smart and that’s helped him get out of a lot of sticky situations. He cares about Keroro A LOT and will do anything to make him stay on Earth since Keroro’s his only friend, really ;w; Together the two of them are literally unstoppable, the best team!! Fuyuki’s really kind and soft-hearted, able to melt the hearts of just about anyone. He’s a GOOD BOY AND I LOVE HIM
Natsumi Hinata: Fuyuki’s older sister! She’s pretty, good at sports, and she can cook! Everybody loves her. She does not put up with ANY of Keroro’s shit and doesn’t hesitate to beat him to a pulp if he tries to invade the planet. She is literally the only thing standing in his way to world domination, and she plans to keep it that way. Also, she is probably one of, if not the most kickass character on the show. Do not mess with her, she can beat you down.
Giroro: The red frog! He’s tough, mean and gruff, and he’s the weapons specialist. He is always polishing his guns and knives. He has the BIGGEST crush on Natsumi and calls her a warrior princess lol. He lives in a tent under Natsumi’s window in the Hinata’s backyard, in case he needs to protect her from any sudden enemy attacks. Giroro can’t stand Keroro half the time even though they’re childhood friends. He also can’t do anything except blush and stammer around Natsumi…it’s such an adorable case of puppy love I s2g
Tamama: Tamama’s the dark blue frog! He may look adorable but secretly has a dark side and you do NOT want to piss him off. He has a huge crush on Keroro (yes, this is canon, made clear from the start haha) and gets jealous whenever anybody else fawns over him. Tamama has a huge sweet tooth and is always seen gorging on food.
Kururu: The most intelligent (and creepy) member of the platoon! Kururu’s yellow and he has swirly glasses. Nobody’s ever seen him with them off, I think. Kururu is just…weird. He does strange, strange things and messes with the platoon and the other humans just to get a laugh. However when he’s needed he does pull through amazingly!! Kururu doesn’t really get along with anyone except for his human companion, Saburo (who Natsumi has a crush on).
Dororo: The blue frog and also the one everybody forgets. Dororo’s a ninja and due to his sort of timid personality he’s never really the focus of attention. Keroro forgets about him often which always makes him really upset and it flips his “trauma switch” which reduces him to a crying, sniveling mess as he relives past horrors, poor boy ;m; He was also childhood friends with Kero and Giro and Kero often used him as a scapegoat as well as a guinea pig;; (It’s not all bad, I promise, they really are good friends)
Other, more minor characters I should mention:
Angol Mois: Another alien, she takes on a human appearance as a girl with tan skin and blonde hair! She affectionately refers to Keroro as “Uncle” and sorta grew up with him (they’re not really related lol). She has this weird thing for Keroro, which makes Tamama insanely jealous. He absolutely despises her haha. Mois is cute, pure, and sweet–but she’s also the one destined to destroy the planet from the 1999 prophecy. She slept in and missed the date though, oops! She tries to crack the planet in two many times using her Lucifer spear, but Keroro usually manages to stop her before she destroys all of planet Earth whewww
Momoka Nishizawa: Tamama’s human companion, she also has a dark side she constantly fights with. She also has an extremely obsessive crush on Fuyuki, so much that she stalks him and spends billions of dollars on crazy plans to get closer to him (she’s rich. Filthy, filthy, filthy rich.)
Saburo Mutsumi: I mentioned him briefly, but he’s Kururu’s companion! AKA too cool for school, Saburo’s handsome, suave, and extremely intelligent. Giroro hates his guts lol. He’s also very kind and while he isn’t around often, he’s always there to lend a hand when it’s needed! And yeah Natusmi has the hots for him kehehe
Koyuki Azumaya: Natsumi’s best friend, she comes from a ninja village and is Dororo’s companion. She’s very athletic and peppy, and I’m preeeetty sure she’s gay for Natsumi, which is fantastic. She rescued Dororo when he first arrived on Earth and seems to be the only one who ever remembers his presence.
Aki Hinata: Fuyuki and Natsumi’s mom! She’s always busy working but whenever she is home she dotes on her kids a lot. And DAYUM she is badass, I love Aki. And Kururu has a strange fascination with her for some reason lol. She was the one who allowed Keroro to stay with the family, even going so far as to give him his own room in the basement!
And that other guy I drew earlier? That’s Dark Keroro, the main antagonist of the third Keroro Gunsou movie! His main goal is to invade and conquer Earth, which he does easily and much faster than Keroro can. However Fuyuki is unaffected by his brain-washing waves and refuses to bow down to him, so he takes a special interest in him, trying to get him to join his side for most of the movie. He can’t understand the friendship between Fuyuki and Keroro and struggles with it until the very end ;w; He’s my favorite KG character, I love him to death and he definitely got the ending he deserved!
The one ironic thing about the Keroro Platoon is while they may SUCK at invading Earth, they’re amazing at protecting it. Literally every time some other invader has tried to take over they’ve driven them out, successfully protecting the planet! Honestly they should focus more of their attention on gaining popularity from saving Earth rather than trying to destroy it lol
You can either watch the sub or the dub, both are good! The dub is funnier and has more pop culture references (mostly from the 90s), and the voice acting is great. However I grew up with the sub and while I ADORE the dub, I love the sub more! Also Keroro’s Japanese voice is literally irreplaceable and I can’t imagine him not ending his sentences with “De arimasu!” and doing his usual “Ge~ro gero gero!” cackle it’s just. What makes Keroro KERORO you know?
SO YEAH that’s the basics of Keroro Gunsou!! Please do watch it, it’s a fantastic series and one of my all time favorites. It’s very funny, mostly a comedy-centric thing, but there is plot later on, and all of the movies are great. There is not one bad KG movie, I love them all. I might stream the third movie tomorrow if ya’ll wanna come watch it with me, that’s my favorite one~

if you still do headcanons can you give dramatic af stark teens
lmfao yes sorry this is so late Nora: 
Robb. Oh Robb. He is the child who will call family meetings just so he can dramatically declare that he’s angry. 
“I just wanted to call everyone here because I have an important family announcement.” “Oh gods, you got someone pregnant.” “Sansa, please. It’s far more important than that.” “Wait what does that mea-” “Bran rolled over my foot with his chair this morning. I’m not speaking to him for a week.” 
Rickon: “Wait but did Robb get someone pregnant I’m confused.” 
He was also the biggest prankster as a kid so family members would inevitably destroy his gags when they got sick of them so he’d dramatically call everyone together and accuse them individually of breaking his stuff. 
 Jon sulks and makes sure everyone else KNOWS he’s sulking. He wears all black, refuses to smile even less than he does now, and will deeply sigh every 5 minutes. The only way he could be more obvious is to physically have a raining cloud follow him. 
Every time he sighs someone else will sigh and go “anything bothering you, Jon?” and Emo Jon would say no, give a 1-minute speech on the inevitability of disappointment, and then stare out the window and sigh again. 
lmfao Sansa is passive aggressive as shit OR yelling there is no in-between. She’s always the Extra™ child. If the most minor inconvenience happens, Sansa is on the floor crying, moaning that her life is over, that she’ll never find happiness again, that nothing can be worse than this.
She did this once when her favorite tv show got canceled. She curled up against the remote and groaned, and when Robb tried to get the remote to watch Mythbusters, Sansa yelled at him for not respecting her feelings. 
Also passive aggressive sticky notes. Everywhere. Ned walked to the fridge to see it covered in post-its, different colors for each member of the family she was referring to (he was on there, in an orange sticky that said “Please put back the strawberry carton FULLY CLOSED”). 
Arya subtweets a LOT. It’s honestly the only time she actively uses twitter, to subtweet, and she has a large loyal following that gets excited because she never uses it otherwise, so they love logging on and seeing the vague-posts. She keeps getting in trouble for it because her family all follows her, but that doesn’t stop her from live-tweeting Sansa yelling at her or subtweeting and following it up with Kermit sipping tea gifs. 
Sansa subtweets too so people who follow BOTH of them while they’re fighting are in for a treat. 
In real life she always has to have the last word so she’ll argue but then let someone say their last thing and then scream out something and sprint out the door so they can’t respond. 
So Bran isn’t always dramatic, but when it comes to pranks…he’s either too extreme or too underwhelming. So, underwhelming: you know that Spongebob episode where a guy asks for some ice and Spongebob gives him one? That’s Bran. And for extreme: if you watch New Girl, remember when Winston unleashed a possum at a wedding and thought it was hilarious? Yeah, that’s also Bran. 
Other pranks: putting a singular blueberry on Ned’s oatmeal and roaring with laughter when Ned ate it and dumping ghost pepper sauce into Joffrey’s tea (truthfully, the family didn’t scold him too much for that one). 
Rickon can sometimes be extra. Arya once got him a crown for his birthday and he wore that thing around for a whole month and declared himself a king. 
He also pettily made a list of everyone who was annoying (he got this from Arya tbh). So, if he and Arya are hanging out and someone trips over their feet or blocks the tv screen, they pull out a notepad and write down the offense. 
Sansa once stole their notepad and the two declared that once they got it back they were going to put her name at the top of that list.

naruto.
LISTEN I LITERALLY CRY EVERYTIME IT MAKES ME SO EMO. I WATCHED NARUTO THE ROAD TO NINJA MOVIE LIKE TWO NIGHTS AGO AND I CRIED LIKE A BABY WATCHING HIM INTERACT WITH HIS PARENTS AND ALL LIKE D’:: highkey still hated on sasuke though
but yeah no it’s okay! i have super late responses as of late…. and it’s really only because i’ve been too emotionally spent by the end of the day or tired or busy or just “not feeling it”
idk, but i hope to get back into being more active. i miss this place. i miss interacting with others, as little of it i seem to be doing right now (guh _ _)
LOL I HAVE SO MANY SEX SCENES ALREADY PREWRITTEN OUT FOR HTE JUNGKOOK FIC AND SO NOW THAT I’VE GOT THE HARDEST PARTS DONE, IT’S JUST DOWN TO FILLING IN THE PLOT AND SUCH. aaaand that’s kinda hard too, but i think i’ll manage. hopefully.
(help)
dude it was rainy and windy and cold today and i had to go outside and the entire time i was walking/running/dying to class i was thinking a) why b) this was a Mistake
ah well in regards to your theme, usually the theme makers are okay with minor changes (sometimes major ones too) as long as you keep the credit and the changes are for personal use (as opposed to commercial use/redistribution, etc). just to be sure, you can just check their rules. they usually have that whole page/pop up or will simply include it in their theme code.
hmm what do you mean by boxes for previews? i don’t think i’ve ever seen such as thing. it sounds interesting, though. are they previews for like posts or…?
YEAH OMG I’M REALLY EXCITED BECAUSE FEBRUARY IS BOTH MINE AND ALSO @taesthetes​‘ BIRTHDAY MONTH SO ITS LIKE A BIRTHDAY PRESENT WOOHOO
thank you for loving our collaboration! i’m still amazed on how quickly we got things put together and everything… honestly… cat and @zephyoongist​ are so talented i don’t know what i’m doing here :’) (or where i would be without them)
and now finally…
(for the maaaain event)…
okaY OKAY I WILL SCREECH WITH YOU ABOUT NARUTO. RIGHT HERE. RIGHT NOW. just under the cut because spoilers:
I’M SUCH AN EMOTIONAL WRECK OVER NARUTO THE ONLY BEST WAY I CAN TRULY EXPRESS MY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AT THE MOMENT IS JUST THROUGH BULLET POINTS SO:
i love kakashi
i also love gaara. i can’t choose between the two, but lately i’ve been more biased towards kakashi. i blame it on my sister because she’s always had a thing for him
(i still love you gaara its okay my sand child)
kakashi’s backstory had me in tears… like… with obito died and he’s telling kakashi he’ll give him his sharingan (the sharingan that he’d always been talking about that would get him to hokage) to be his eye to see the future…
i just..
fucking broke down man like dude… stop… you’re killing me here… and then how kakashi really changes afterwards
(okay but listen child kakashi was savage as fuck though and it was hilarious)
(also i know it’s a filler but that one episode in which it showed guy and kakashi comparing dick sizes as kids….,,..,.
….,,..i wasn’t expecting that at all but i don’t mind the info heheheheh heh /dies)
OKAY BUT THEN RIN DIES WHY
literally if she hadn’t died a lot of the issues in naruto wouldn’t have occurred but they fucking did
no i’m not blaming her she died for a noble reason okay it just makes me really sad i’m sorry
AND FINALLY MINATO DIES TOO AND KAKASHI IS THE LAST OF HIS TEAM IM EMO
on a side note minato and kushina were cute as fuck
ANYWAYS GAARA OH MY OH MY GOD MY POOR BABY as a kid he was so cute and just wanted some friends and was out helping all those villagers and such but then his damned dad just had to go and screw those things up like STOP IT HE;S MY CHILD
even though i love those two, my favorites are actually the akatsuki
like. they hate each other but istg they secretly love each other like have you seen kakuzu and hidan’s interactions??? they tease and insult and threaten (and have killed) each other but kakuzu is actually patient with hidan’s rituals and such, and hidan will still accompany kakuzu to the collection centers
also, when he sees asuma’s guardian shinobi thing the first thing that comes to mind is kakuzu and how he’d want him for the money and he’s like u gh but like !!!
and AND when hidan at first thinks he’s accidentally killed kakuzu in his fight with shikamaru & co., he has that look of panic ooooh my god I JUST GASHUDFJSDIJASD
also hidan is just hilarious. like when they go to recruit him he’s like “who are you guys, all wearing the same clothes?? are you guys an orchestra or band or something?”
/points at kakuzu/ bet you play the bass
/points at konan/ bet the girl does vocals and keyboards
/points at itachi/ …or do you do vocals…?
and then the first thing hidan and kakuzu do to each other is kill each other
the look of utter disbelief on both of their faces
“what the–why aren’t you dead?”
“bitch that hurt–wait. why aren’t you dead?”
but anyways we can’t forget about itachi and kisame either, now can we?? like. they are actually like the only partner group that openly got along with each other, and they were sad oh my god they were sad upon realizing each other’s death’s
and idk just the way kisame says “itachi-san” does something to me
 i t a c h i
oh boy i have so much to say about this kid
but before i move on i must! address! the others!!
okay so like deidara is actually op as fuck and sometimes idk i feel like he doesnt get enough credit?? idk.
BUT LIKE LISTEN OKAY HE GOES THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS TO SEAL THE ICHIBI AKA SHUKAKU AKA GAARA’S TAILED BEAST and then immediately after decides to take on naruto (and kakashi)
AND HE ONLY HAD ONE ARM AT THE TIME HAVING JUST LOST ONE IN HIS FIGHT WITH GAARA LIKE WHAT IS THIS STAMINA AND HOW DOES HE NOT BLEED OUT THIS KID IS FUCKING AMAZING WHAT THE HELL
and he’s 19 like lol what bye
but anyways, after his “fight” he loses his other arm because kakashi and now he’s armless BUT THIS KID STILL HOLDS HIS OWN though completely on the defense AGAINST TEAM GAI LIKE WHAT THE FUCK HE’S AMAZING and then he manages to create a bomb without using any sort of handseals and fools them all into thinking he’s dead
like
i love this boy give him a metal why did he have to die so early why (yet another reason why i dislike sasuke lmfao)
black zetsu scares the fuck out of me (esp when i learned of his true past and intentions) but white zetsu!! he’s such a sweetie holy shit
I JUST REALLY LIKED THAT TIME WHEN HE BURSTS INTO THE 5 KAGE SUMMIT AND HE’S LIKE “HALLLLOOO!!!!!!” WITH THE ARMS AND EVERYTHING DAW OMG
and also unlike so many others he actually likes everyone and when he saves deidara he’s like “you’re a fun guy to be around” and then and then later when he’s talking to tobi he reveals that he’s sad that so many of the akatsuki members died like D::
let’s not forget when black zetsu called him weak (they had split in two at the time) and white zetsu just kind of D: and wilts a little like ooHH NO oo baby it’s okay it’s okay
ahem
konan is so strong… holy crap… like… her ultimate attack? with the bajillion paper explosive tags disguised as a lake?? that go off for 10 minutes? holy fuck.
yahiko’s pretty damn hot if you ask me (yes i know he’s a cadaver in the main time period but listen)
idk my favorite arc of the entire thing was pain’s invasion of konoha… like from the moment jiraiya’s message arrived to when everyone got revived…. and then kakashi almost became hokage…
it was fantastic
i think it’s mainly because it was a mystery, race against time, battle thing all in one and it was so neat i guess
also you could see everyone in the village working together, fighting their hardest, showing their potentials for like, the first time ever
um um um okay sasori mentally scarred me as a child, and now whenever i hear the rattling puppet noises i immediately think of these scary nightmares i had after watching his fight with sakura… yeah, puppets scare me a lot now
orochimaru is a creep ‘nuff said moving on
tobi! i love this alternate ego of obito/”madara” like idk he’s so jumpy and honestly it’s fucking hilarious watching him because he’s so secretly op certain people underestimate him at first (and then others overestimate him because of his association with akatsuki)
like. when he was warding off konoha from itachi vs sasuke’s fight (which i am still emo about) he was just like playing whack-a-mole with them and then he’s like lemme use this ability! frill-necked lizard!
and they all kinda stand and stare at him intensely execting something legit
but in reality that’s it. the extent of htat ability is just him hanging upside down with the cloack falling behind him to look like a frill-necked lizard
and it’s fucking hilarious
i also thought it was fucking adorable when he and deidara first confront sasuke
and the little bitch goes ahead and slices through him
literally through him
and HE MAKES THE MOST ADORABLE NOISE BEFORE FALLING FLAT ON HIS FACE GAH
but sasuke thinks that he actually killed him and sasuke’s all like “one down”
and deidara just kinda
ugh this kid
and tobi gets up and brushes himself off like wow that was rly fast!!! and sasuke just >:/
URM OKAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE AKATSUKI MEMBERS
sorry i thought i should make this clear but i lowkey highkey have this vendetta thing against sasuke like this little shit
i mean ofc i know the reason for his disillusionment really isn’t all his fault like @ itachi really?
like really when he goes back to konoha and sasuke tries to kill him… he goes and easily breaks his wrist
and he kinda just considers him for a moment like
…hm
how about i….. make his situation even worse…?
and then traps him in a genjutsu that forces him to relive their parents death for 24 hours like why the fuck this is literally all your fault
and also on a side note, fuck danzo. why the fuck did the 3rd not kill him when he was supposed to. why. all the wrong people lived for far too long.
anyways
but yeah no idk i just really don’t like sasuke after he defected and became a Vengeful Teen
AND ITACHI’S STORY MAKES ME CRY EVERY TIME HOLY SHIT IT MAKES ME SO SAD WHY DID THIS BOY HAVE TO SUFFER SO MUCH and then mess up his little brother’s psyche to the point in which he starts killing like everyone wtf
AHEM
another favorite moment arc of mine is the very beginning
like the first 15ish episodes
IRUKA SENSEI
he’s such a blessing. he’s literally one of those crucially important side characters and i appreciate him and i love him and it would’ve been nice to see more of him, but hey, that’s okay too.
(his part in the naruto road to ninja movie had me in tears. like at the end. fucking tears.)
like naruto and kakashi may be super close and stuff, but when he needs someone as a guardian, naruto turns to iruka and idk i feel that says a lot about their relationship and it makes me cry all the fucking time
um anyways yes i also love zabuza
he’s so strong and empowered
AND THAT WHOLE ARC MADE ME CRY A LOT TOO AND THE FACT THAT IT BECOMES SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE STORY MAKES ME SO FUCKING HAPPY
i have a lot more the say probably but it’s getting late and i need to take a shower and sleep and get up early in the morning to make food so i’ll just leave it at that
(i wrote a lot i know i’m sorry)
(hope i didn’t blow you away with any spoilers D:)

A/N: Cross posted on FanFiction.Net. Inspiration is fickle and I still have to update my other story but lmfao. I’ll get to that when schooling calms down... probably.
Baby Blues
Natsu Dragneel wiped the sweat from his forehead, a bright grin on his lips.
Excited shrieks of children laughing around him, a few grabby hands tugging at the hems of his shirt. He tried to pacify their eager calling, one of his hand lifted in surrender as he dropped the ball he was holding in the other. The toddlers around him scooted to the side when he gently shooed them away. With a falsely anticipated voice, he slowly counted to three before he lightly kicked the ball and chuckled when three different children gave chase.
The salmon-haired man gave an exhausted sigh and walked over to break them apart when the kids started to tumble with each other, the soccer ball ways away from their small tussle. He noted to apologize to Makarov the next time he saw the old man, only now realizing how much grey hairs they must've given him when they were brats.
"Natsu Dragneel?" A voice called teasingly from the other end of the grassy clearing. "Breaking up a fight, and not being the cause of it? Now I'm sure I've seen everything."
The man in question looked up from where he was holding the collars of two different shirts, the children struggling in his grip to get at each other despite the obvious difference in their and their captor's strengths. Natsu had readied a glare and a sharp retort for the speaker, only to stop when a familiar mop of blonde hair and a playful smirk on the other man's face registered in his mind.
Sting Eucliffe, always the confident individual, swaggered over to where Natsu was, hands in his pockets and a sort of tired tint to his face. Natsu grinned as he let released the two kids and stood up to greet the blonde with a clasp of their hands and a brief bro-hug.
"What're you doin' here?" Natsu asked once they separated. "I thought you guys were on the first flight back to Crocus."
"We were stubbornly invited," Sting answered with a chuckle, glancing at the children who quickly forgot about the two adults and their previous squabbling and started chasing after the ball again. "Lucy insisted that we at least stay for Juvia's baby shower before we left. I figure she just wants us and Hugo to enjoy all the doting before we set off."
"Oh?" The pinkette's smile dropped, his lips pressing into a thin line.
"Yeah," the blonde man nodded, "but by how excited she looked, you guys must have some sort of surprise for us."
Natsu sighed, one of his hands slipping into his pockets while the other pulled his scarf away from his mouth. "Luce really doesn't know how to keep a secret."
"So I was right?" Sting looked a little shocked but then burst out into laughter. "Oh, man! It's a good thing Yuki is pretty oblivious to that kind of stuff. I guess also it helps that she still hasn't gotten used to taking care of Hugo on the go. That kid is an absolute monster at night, seriously."
"You and Yukino made Lucy happy though," Natsu chuckled. "She was really upset when she couldn't make it to Hugo's birth."
"Yuki too," Sting sighed. "That's why as soon as we got the green light from the doc, we got on the next flight here. I don't think I've seen my wife or our child the entire time we were here. It took six months, but my little family finally feels complete with Fairy Tail backing us up."
"You can count on us for anything," Natsu promised with an easy grin. "If it wasn't for your job back in the capital, Luce would've pestered you guys to move to Magnolia."
"Please. You wouldn't have to pester us," the blonde man admitted with a laugh. "If I know my wife, the she wouldn't let Lucy question before jumping at the offer. Yukino knows how important taking over the guild is for me though, and it would be a difficult move with Hugo so young."
"Congrats, by the way," Natsu told him with a chuckle of his own, "for the job and for the baby. Yukino must be relieved that he's not as ugly as you."
Sting punched his arm. "Screw off, man. I'm beautiful."
The pinkette laughed and opened his mouth to say more but an exclamation of surprise stole his focus and his head whipped to attention. "Oi, Simon Louis Fernandez! Put that down!" Natsu shouted across the clearing to the scarlet-haired toddler. "Your mother is going to have my head if she finds out I let you eat dirt again!"
The child, Simon, froze from where his dirt covered hand was poised halfway to his mouth and stared at him rounded eyes. Natsu sternly folded his arms across his chest when the child refused to budge and gave him the well-practiced 'eye' that Lucy always gave him when they first met. Mere moments later, Simon relented with a sag of his shoulders and dropped the fist full of earth back to the ground.
"Jeez," Natsu sighed when the child started after the other children again. "These brats stir up trouble the second you take your eyes off of them."
"That's why Uncle Natsu is here," Sting drawled in the most patronizing tone he could muster and snickered when the pinkette shoved him. "Kids are exhausting, man, but so worth it," the blonde man yawned and stretched his arms over his head. "So?" He asked, "when are we going to see little Natsu spawns running around and causing havoc?"
Natsu snorted. "These spawns are enough," he admitted, gesturing to the group of three children in front of him. "Erza and Mira synced their pregnancies with Simon and Elysia, so it's not like havoc is really a shortage in Fairy Tail. Thankfully they behave... sorta, with Asuka around." Natsu scratched the back of his neck, "I don't know how Jellal and Laxus can put up with this all day."
"Guess it's just something you won't really understand until it happens," Sting shrugged.
"Probably," Natsu agreed, "but don't count on it."
Elysia's gleeful shriek cut Sting's response as the four-year old broke away from the small crowd of children. "An' Usy!"
There was a quieter, but equally gleeful response and Natsu looked for the light-haired child's sudden interest. He knew, of course, that 'An' Usy' meant 'Aunt Lucy' in the child's warbled speech. He knew that Lucy wouldn't cause any harm to the kids, but constant cautious experience for the little humans developed a habit to always check what had gotten the kids so excited. Just for safe keeping.
What he wasn't expecting, though, was the sudden glow surrounding her as she held a lightly bundled child in her arms, beaming brightly at the children that ran up to her. She knelt in front of the kids, moved her body so she could cast a shadow over the bundle, and shifted the baby in her arms so the other kids' curious eyes could peek inside. Natsu couldn't hear what was said, but the excitement radiating off of the children had been enough to guess.
"There's the light of my life!" Sting exclaimed when Lucy stood back up to make her way over, a trail of duckling-children following closely behind her.
The blonde woman laughed, shooting the man a teasing look. "I'm flattered, Sting, I really am. But I don't go for married men."
"Oh, har har, Lucy. You're hilarious," Sting mocked in amusement.
"The talent oozes," Lucy shot back haughtily as she stopped in front of them, her chocolate-brown eyes glowing happily. "Hey, Natsu?" She grinned, bringing the baby up to her face and pressing their cheeks together, "doesn't he look like me? If I were twenty-three and a half or so years younger, we could be twins."
Natsu raised his eyebrow at her, but couldn't help but agree. The baby inherited Sting's blonde hair, just a shade paler than Lucy's, and Yukino's dark brown eyes. It wasn't the first time he was struck by Hugo's eerily likeness to the blonde woman; however, it was the first time they were close enough to compare. If he was a stranger looking in, he could have mistaken Hugo for Lucy's son.
And that really didn't sit well with him.
The grin on the woman's face slid off her lips, a frown of concern replacing it. "Natsu?" Lucy asked warily, cradling Hugo back into her arms. "Are you alright?"
Natsu blinked at her, his eyes focusing onto her own. "Huh? Wha– yeah. Of course I am, you weirdo. Why wouldn't I be?"
"You had a strange look on your face," Lucy replied, years of knowing him tuned out the weirdo comment. "I can take over watching the kids if you need a break."
"Nah," Natsu replied, an easy grin slipping onto his face as he shoved both of his hands into his pockets. "It's almost time for lunch anyway, right?" Lucy nodded, still hesitant. "See? I got them, Luce. Don't worry about it."
"If you're sure," she mused, eyeing him for a moment before turning back to Hugo with a affectionate smile on her lips. "Alright, Hue, you wanna go back to daddy?" Lucy's smile grew when the baby's arms slid out from the blanket and wiggled his fingers in the air. "What about daddy, huh? You think daddy's ready to take you back?"
In reply, Sting held his hands out and wiggled his fingers, mimicking Hugo's actions. Lucy snickered before she carefully passed the baby to his father and gave a final farewell coo before removing her hands entirely. The blond man loosed the blankets around his son, letting the baby's hands curiously explore his face as he playfully nuzzled their noses together.
"Hey there, little light," the blonde man cooed to his son, a finger lifted to move the blanket away from the baby's face. "Did you miss daddy? Mommy must have been desperate if she gave you to Aunt Lucy of all people."
The golden-haired woman rolled her eyes, folding her arms across her chest. "Yukino wants you to change Hugo's diaper," she informed, a smirk on her lips when Sting's quickly dropped. "I couldn't really smell it through the blankets, but if your son is anything like you, it's a stinker."
The children that were waiting faithfully behind Lucy finally drew her attention with their giggles and she missed the scowl Sting sent her at the jab. Natsu, however, chuckled at the expression the other man was currently wearing and could only smile in amusement when the (grown) man started to complain to the bundled baby. The pinkette turned back to his best friend just in time to see the children trying to drag her to where they caught an earthworm nearly an hour before.
Knowing Lucy really wouldn't take as smoothly to the wiggling worm as he had, Natsu quickly jumped forward and caught the blonde's wrist in his hand. "Hey, guys?" He addressed the children, ignoring the curious look Lucy sent him, "I really don't think Aunt Lucy wants to see the worm you three caught earlier."
"Aw! Uncle Natsu!" Asuka complained, a pout in his direction. "You ruined the surprise!"
Lucy's eyes rounded, her mouth popping open slightly. "A-Ah, well. U-Uncle Natsu has a p-point. "
"But is really big!" Simon tried to reason, his eyes widening up at Lucy. "Really, really big!"
Natsu's eyes shot towards Lucy's face, knowing the blonde was the biggest sucker for their wide-eyed attacks. As he expected, the blonde's chocolate-brown orbs melted under the stare. It also didn't help that Elysia, the more reserved one of the three, had started to tug at her other hand and gave Lucy the pout that Mirajane had most likely taught her to use on Laxus.
He could feel Lucy's hand weaken under his fingers as she quickly turned and shot him a panicked look. Natsu, who surprisingly doesn't fare much better against the visual assault when it's directed towards him, just shrugged back helplessly. He had to hide his amused smile at the comical look of betrayal that shot across her face.
Taking pity on his best friend, Natsu sighed and tugged her under his arm, giving the children a wary look. "Maybe later, yeah?" He asked with a grin. "It's almost lunch time, so why don't we get all cleaned up before your moms skin me alive?"
"Natsu!" Lucy hissed under her breath, elbowing him in the side. "That is not something you tell children!"
Natsu snorted, keeping a close eye on the children as they jumped and squealed over each other to get to the campground first. "Please, Luce. They each saw me get my ass kicked at least twice this week."
Lucy set harsh eyes on him. "Don't encourage them then, you dolt!"
"It got them movin', didn't it?" He asked with a noncommittal shrug. "And 'sides, it wasn't like I was lyin'."
"Oh, whatever," the blonde woman huffed, ducking under his arm to address the quiet father behind them. "Yukino's expecting you," she told Sting with a defeated sigh. "Are you guys sure you can't move here? I'm going to miss this little guy."
Sting laughed at this. "We have responsibilities back home, Lucy, but the wife would definitely take you up on that offer."
"Yeah, I know," she huffed again, blowing a stray strand of hair out of her face. "That's why I didn't ask Yukino."
"Doesn't mean you can't visit us up in Crocus, though," Sting offered and then continued with a wink, cuddling his son closer. "Who knows? Maybe you might have started your own little spawn buy then."
"Right," Lucy snickered, leaning back to press herself against Natsu. The latter glaring at Sting before the words even fell from the man's lips. "I have enough of my hands full with this big baby," the blonde woman cooed, reaching up and playfully tapping the pinkette's cheek with her hand. "Isn't that right, Natsu?"
The man in question gave her a mocking smile. "I wonder who's takin' care of who, Luce," he returned, wrapping his arm around her again. "Wasn't it just last week when you was complaining that you were just too sick to move?"
Sting cut in through Lucy's sudden silence, a grin on his face. "I'm still expecting some happy news the next time we see each other."
"Don't hold your breath," the blonde woman grumbled. She then shook Natsu's arm away and separated herself from the group. "I'm going to go check on the kids. Only the stars know what kind of trouble they'll get into at the sinks."
"Check Simon, yeah?" Natsu asked her, catching her hand in his and tangling their fingers together. When Lucy turned to look back at him with curious eyes, he winced. "Kid tried to eat dirt. Again."
Lucy huffed out a knowing laugh, turning on her toes and lifting herself up to plant a chaste kiss on his cheek. "I'll make sure there's no evidence," she giggled, dropping back on her heels. "You get cleaned up too, okay? Juvia wants to keep her baby blue tablecloths spotless and I really don't want to spend the night by my boyfriend's hospital bed."
"If she can catch me," Natsu snickered. Lucy just fondly rolled her eyes in reply before untangling their hands and bounded off to where the children disappeared.
"I don't know why you two are so against having a kid," Sting commented when Natsu turned back to him. "Having Hugo changed my entire life– and don't say it's because you're both too busy to have a kid, because I just inherited the guild and Yukino had her new internship at the office. I think Yuki and I know a thing or two about being 'too busy.'"
"It's not that," Natsu sighed, reaching back to fluff the hair above his neck.
Sting shifted Hugo in his arms, smiling down at his son when the child let out a happy giggle. "Did you ask her?" He questioned without looking, letting tiny fingers reach out towards his own.
Natsu blinked. "What?"
"Did you ask her?" Sting repeated, looking up this time. "Did you ask Lucy if she even wanted to have kids?"
"Well... no," Natsu admitted. "But– c'mon, man. You heard her earlier. She told you not to hold your breath."
"Geez, Natsu," the blonde man sighed. "Think about it. You've been together for what? Four years? Your friends are popping up babies left and right. There's no way that she hadn't considered having a kid with you. Women talk, man. One of the only women left in your group who hasn't had a kid yet is Levy, and it's not like it's for the lack of trying."
"Just talk it out, yeah?" Sting asked, clapping a hand on Natsu's shoulder when the other man stayed quiet. "We should get going. I still gotta change Hue's diaper and you gotta get cleaned up. I really don't want you to send us off in a hospital bed."
Natsu landed face-first in exhaustion, the crisp, soft sheets under him giving his aching muscles some reprieve from the harsh day. A laugh sounded from behind him him shortly before he was nudged aside and was joined in a similar fashion. Not caring that hot and humid the day was still clinging to their skins, he rolled enough to pull the equally exhausted blonde into his arms. He nuzzled his way to the side of her face and pressed a kiss to her temple. She giggled affectionately and curled closer.
"Hey, Luce?"
"Hm?"
Natsu lazily dug his fingers between her shoulders, easing the knots out of her back. "Did you mean it?"
"Mean what?" Lucy asked with a satisfied sigh, tension easing from her shoulders.
"When you told Sting not to hold his breath?" The blonde woman froze at his words, her body tensing appropriately. Natsu only continued his fingers' dance on her back until she was somewhat relaxed again. "Well, did you?" He prodded, the smug bastard's words willing him to continue.
Lucy blew out a breath, the air hot on his chest despite his shirt covering it. "Well... I can't say that I haven't thought about it," she admitted, her hand drifting up to rest on the area above his heart. "But, between our guild jobs, your work at the firehouse, and mine with Sorcerer's, I guess there really wasn't much time to really think about it. I mean, that's no excuse. Jason wasn't exactly being subtle when he said we could get maternity leave..."
"So... why don't we?" Natsu asked casually, his fingers falling on the bed when Lucy lifted herself up to look incredulously at him.
"This isn't the weather we're talking about, Natsu," she scowled at him, "this is a life we're talking about here! A baby is a lot of responsibility! Don't ask that so casually!"
He snorted. "As if asking if Hugo had any resemblance to you was such a complicated hint." The blonde went red, spluttering protests that only had the pinkette smiling. He reached up to pull her back onto his chest, quieting her protests but not the flame on her cheeks. "I'm not gonna lie. He does look like you and that doesn't sit well with me. If you have some secret kid, Luce, you better tell me about it."
"Shut up!" Lucy groaned at his chuckling, burying her heated face into his chest.
"But seriously," Natsu smiled, letting his hand drift to her hip. "I've thought about having a kid with you before. I didn't want to push it, though. I didn't want you to scare you off by bringing up a kid so soon. You know you mean the world to me, Luce, but you can do so much better."
"That's a lie and you know it," Lucy scoffed and shifted so she could press a loving kiss to the underside of his jaw. "No one can love me the way you can," she whispered quietly when she pulled back to lay her head back down. "You couldn't scare me off even if you wanted to."
"Unfortunately," Natsu admitted and laughed when she playfully hit his chest.
He shifted their positions, his elbows resting on either side of her as he hovered a breath above. Even in the dark, Lucy's dark-brown eyes gleamed mirthfully into his. He always loved the blissfully happy look on her face, so no one could blame him when he dipped his head to press a full kiss on his girlfriend's lips. She responded in kind, as she always did, submitting every inch of her body and soul to him.
He loves her in the only way he could; with every bend and twist and bit of strength that he could to keep her tethered so greedily to him. Each time their skin meets, he tries to leave a mark on her; a mark so bright and blinding that she would be reminded of him every time she remembered, but only as an act of retaliation because she so effortlessly leaves one on him without even trying. She had called him a greedy, hoarding dragon a few times before, mostly in the heat of a kiss when he robs her of her very breath. It makes him laugh and love her that much more.
Lucy reached places in him that no one dared to touch before, breaking down every carefully built wall he placed. Even through soft, pliant kisses, he monopolized all she had to offer while leaving himself bare for only her to see. For only her to feel. No one could love him the way she could.
Because she could be pretty greedy too.
"I want every piece of you."
It was a confession, soft but demanding in the limited air between them, and Natsu wasn't sure which one of them said it. Judging by the hot, mildly surprised breath that caressed his lips after the phrase was said, then it must have been him.
"You already own every bit."
The breathy reply made a small growling groan push past his lips.
Natsu drifted his hands up her arms, pushing them over her head and lacing their fingers tightly. He parted Lucy's lips with his own and delved deeper. He lost himself to the harsh breaths from her nose as she stubbornly refused to move back for air, and fell with each wanton whimper and desperate tug on his hair every time his sharp teeth scraped against her lip. Sometimes on accident, most times on purpose.
Phrases like before always stuck with him. They were promises. Vows. Guarantees for more without it becoming too obsessive. First came an admission, and then the reply. Like confessing what they already knew, but just making sure that they were still on the same page.
An admission: "I need you."
The reply: "I'm not going anywhere."
She tasted like spit and a bit like the s'mores they roasted over the campfire earlier, but he could swear that he never tasted anything more addicting. His heated hands detached themselves from hers and trailed a languid path down her arms, past the dip of her waist, and then clutched her hips where they stayed for a long moment. One dipped under her body to pull her closer, the other gripped the rising leg at his side and helped its path around his hips.
He liked surprising her in these kind of situations. Where she could easily be caught of guard, and where her reactions is always true. He liked bearing his soul in soft whispers despite being a man for action. That's why he confesses in this sort of way. So he takes leaps, and jumps without reserve. To honor that thought, the next admission came.
Well... sort of admission.
"Have a baby with me."
Lucy pulled back abruptly, breaking their kiss as a loud, surprised laugh erupted from her throat. Natsu chuckled at her mirth, his hand never ceasing their small patterns on her thigh.
"Is that a no?" He couldn't help but cheek, a grin on his face.
Lucy raised an amused eyebrow in his direction, her laughter slowly dying. "You didn't even ask a question, Natsu. Oh my god..."
Natsu blinked. "So that's a no on the no?"
The blonde shook in silent laughter and pulled him back down for another kiss, this one a bit more elated and, somehow, loving.
Later that night, when she was asleep in his arms, content and relaxed, he realizes that he never got his answer. He softly ran his hand down her bare back, slick with a layer of sweat, but he didn't mind in the slightest. At least it didn't feel like a no, he admitted quietly in his head. Natsu chuckled at the thought as he cuddled his loved girlfriend against his chest and dropped an affectionate kiss on the top of her head, following her quickly in slumber.
It definitely didn't feel like a no.
