#Finally the smaller versions have a home lol

[sleepingdayaway]

GAGGGRGRGRG IMMEDIATELY RUSHED TO THE ASK BOX WHEN I SAW UR REQUEST WERE OPEN I LOVE YOUR WRITING SO MUCH IM FOAMING AT THE MOUTH, WOULD IT BE ALRIGHT TO ASK FOR A PART 3 TO THE PLAYER HAS YHE FIERE DEITY MASK??? IF NOT JUST IGNORE THIS REQUEST!!! HAVE A GOOD DAY

HSDFBAEJRBFUHVFDB HOLY CRAP??? I DIDN'T EXPECT FOR YOU GUYS TO HONESTLY LIKE THE FIERCE DEITY STORY.

Once again! It's short so my bad. When I first wrote this it was supposed to be just 1 part lol didn't expect y'all to genuinely like it. :)

Characters: Time, Fierce Deity, and Reader

Warnings: None

The silence was so loud after those words were spoke.

The group of blondes all looked at the eldest in fear that the man would just pounce on the poor individual who, quite obviously, has no idea on what is going on. Who has just simply grown attached to the first thing that showed them kindness after being woken up in a place that wasn't their home.

"What in the actual fuck?"

Time is regretting even trying to bargain with the individual as they hold one the most dangerous mask, in their hands.

Every fiber of his being is screaming at him to simply lunge for it, but Time's rational part of himself is refusing to submit. It would be unfair to them. Really, the person looked exhausted, their body tensed as if they were fighting moments before they arrived. There was also a slight hint of fear and caution in their eyes as they scanned him and his friends. Subtle signs that they might've used the mask before they arrived, which surpised him that the young adult is still standing.

Said person flinched back at his words. Unconsciously fidgeting with Fierce Deity in their hands. "He says your name is, Link," they continued with a look of hopefulness as they made eye contact with Time's eyes.

"That you could help me? That you were taken by this freaky shadow thing-" [Name] ranted on as their posture slowly relaxed. In return, Time's shoulders slumped slightly as he stares at them.

Eventually [Name] drifted off and stared hesitantly at Time. Searching for any more signs of hostility since he did look like he was going to fucking tackle them into the ground earlier. If they were to even move an inch.

A familiar chuckle echoed in their head. "You aren't wrong there, little one" Fierce Deity teased. "The young hero used to always dive head first into situations without a plan." The Deity merely found this entire thing amusing, and was he going to enjoy it as much as he can.

[Name] tenses up. Okay, they may not know what the fuck is going on, and it's really unfair that the Fierce Deity mask? Person? Has a really hot voice.

"I swear to god, if you say shit like that unannounced I'm going to throw you-"

"Excuse me?"

A noise of fear escaped from [Name's] lips at the acknowledgement. Their hands loosened for a moment before squeezing as if they were warning the entity in the mask. A hesitant smile appears on their mouth as they look up at the older man.

'Holy fuck- if I'm holding the Fierce Deity mask then that means I'm speaking to Link-'

[Name] does a double take at the blonde. He's quite tall, no longer the small hero that ran around helping the land of Termina and Hyrule. The young boy is nonexistent but they believe he hasn't been that youthful optimistic child he once was for a long time.

When did their precious boy get freaking tall??? Wasn't most versions of Link smaller than the average Hylian?

"I wasn't talking to you! The mask said something stupid so I-"

"He can speak to you?? What- you can hear him??"

"My brother in christ if you interrupt me again, I'm walking the other direction."

A smooth deep laugh echoed in their head at the short responses. Fierce Deity relished in this moment; the familiar bickering between the older hero and the young guide.

It brought him back to the moment during the Hero of Time's journey. During the final fight with Majora, the Fierce Deity was conscious during the entire battle. Giving his strength to the young hero and his guide. A moment where the both of you were panicking. Which then caused a stressed conversation between the two of you.

"Link- Link I swear to god if you take off this mask because you think it'll be funny. I will make sure Majora punches you so hard you blackout for the rest of this fight"

"Oh come on! It'll only be off just for a moment."

"NO-"

Oh yes. The God could only wait and enjoy on how everything will go. He will refuse to speak up and explain on what is going on. In his eyes, why not let the children piece everything together?

Besides it fine to let himself be a bit selfish in knowing who you are. It has been a long time since he's seen you. You can't blame him, can you?

-After splat2 she grew her hair out and styled it to match Maries a bit

-Lives in a shared apartment with Sara and sometimes Eight

-Was catching up with her high school missed agent years and is now studing some general science/space-based course 👍 he like space a lot

-Was very mad and very upset and very sad he was not the one choosen to be sent into space to save the earth

-Fluent in octarian, also knows a bit of salmonling

Eight

-22

-Her weird spots are a reaction from perlonged exposure to a sanitized environment, the bigget her spots are the better, the smaller the worse. She sometimes wakes up with random pains, especially in her right arm and back

-Lives with Pearl and Marina post OE, also spents a loooottt of time at 4 and 3s place

-Became a little furry tiger-ish inkling due to prolonged exposure to fuzzy ooze. Unlike Sara it is less fuzzy, its just spread all around its body

-Scavanged the deserts around splatsville for trinkets to sell in 2nd hand markets and fairs. Meet with Deep Cut once or twice during that period, hence their pre-assumption that it was gonna steal the stuff for itself

-In their free time they used to participate in turf wars. They considered doing salmon runs but found it extremelly wrong and immorall

-Little buddy was a salmonid that wanted to see more of the world so they snuck into, a very distracted, workers hat.

His Little Girl | Bradley Bradshaw x reader p. 30

click here for the master list

Hi babes, I am finally back! I am sorry for the long wait. 

Bradley’s first night on solo daddy duty. Let’s hope he makes it through the week without you! I have faith in him, Daddy Brad is my fave 😍 I hope you are all enjoying the story! I love you all so much and thank you for being here! 💕 Happy reading and enjoy! ❤️

A/n: Bradley is officially on daddy duty while you're away for a convention. How will he continue to do while you’re away? Today is also Leia’s honorary call sign party!! Things might also get a lil spicy later on 😏 Another Bradley POV! 😁

Word Count: 2.9k

Warnings: cursing, adult banter, nudity, drinking, but an overwhelming amount of LOVE 😍

Please don't take my work, I will find you. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You had meetings all morning and afternoon. It was getting into the late evening and you had one more meeting at 8 PM.  So much for relaxing the day before the chaos. Presenting ideas to the board for approval, in preparation for the meeting the following day. You were beyond exhausted. You are also introverted, so you felt super overwhelmed and overstimulated. You finally returned to your room for a little break. This was only the first of five… well now 6 very tedious workdays. You took off your blazer and heels and relaxed on your hotel bed. You pulled out your phone and saw a picture that Bradley had sent of him and Leia. They were matching. She was next to him wearing a smaller version of a flight suit like Bradley’s, some aviators, and rocking a fake mustache. You laughed to yourself. 

Under the picture, he wrote, “Who is who, mama? ;) We both miss you so much!” You saved the picture to your phone and made it your new background. You looked at the time, 7 PM. It would only be 4 PM for them. You texted him back.

Y: I can’t tell the difference! Are you sure that Leia is in this picture, or are you standing by a mirror? ;) I miss you two so much :,(.

He replied quickly, B: I swear one of these fine pilots is Captain Leia. LOL. How are you? How is work?

Y: I need more pictures of her in that flight suit! Where did you even get that?? 

Y: Work is so tiring. Meeting after meeting, I have a small break right now. ;)

B: Mav got it for her! I will definitely send more pictures through the night. The squad is coming over to hang out with us. Give Babygirl her honorary callsign :D

B: My poor baby. When you get home I will give you all the full body massages… for free <3

Y: A callsign! That is so cool, you’ll have to share it with me later!

Y: A full body massage…hmmm you will have to fill me in on these details later ;)

B: I’ll let you know, baby girl :)

B: Oh I will definitely fill you in later ;) ;) <3

You threw your head back onto your bead, “Damn it, Bradshaw.” You played oblivious.

Y: Sounds good, I have to get back to work now. Definitely fill me in on those details later. ;) I love you both! Have fun tonight! xox

B: We love you! xo <3

Bradley’s POV

I looked over to Leia napping on the couch in her flight suit and crooked mustache. I laughed and went to go give her a kiss. I started to prepare some finger foods. Then there was a knock at my door. When I answered It was Cyclone and Mav. I put my finger on my lips and gestured with my other hand for them to come in quietly.

Mav in a whisper, “Where is little Leia?” He bent down to untie his boots. 

I pointed in the direction of the couch where she was fast asleep. They both started to walk over and Cyclone bursted into laughter. He rested his hand on Mav’s shoulder and hid behind his back. He tried to quiet down his laughter. Mav covered his mouth trying to hold in his laughter. 

Cyclone straightened himself out and looked at me. He pointed at Leia, “What the fuck is she wearing, Rooster?” He yelled in a loud whisper. “God, if you weren’t right here I would think that was your ass passed out on the couch.” He was staring at Leia with his knuckles between his teeth trying not to laugh. “I’m going to go barbecue now before I wake up Rooster Jr.” He patted me on the back and made his way out the sliding door laughing. 

Mav came next to me and slapped his hand on my back, “I can see you are making use of the flight suit I ordered for her.” He started to laugh, “But, you could have done without the mustache.” He walked over to the refrigerator and put the beers away. 

“I think the mustache was the icing on the cake.” I turned to him and rested my hands on the counter.

Mav let out a chuckle and started to put beers into the fridge, “No it really is, she looks exactly like you. It's scary.” 

I looked back at her and laughed. “I’ll be back. I have to go get changed. Mind watching her for a minute?” 

Mav shook his head and gestured for me to go and change. I went to my room and peeled myself out of my fairly worn flight suit and threw it in the hamper. I took a quick shower and threw on some casual clothes. I made my way back downstairs and half of the squad was already in my kitchen. I looked over and Leia was still asleep. I decided to let her sleep until everyone got there. 

“I thought that was you sleeping on the couch when I came in, Bradshaw.” Hangman pointed his beer bottle over to Leia.

Fanboy nodded and swallowed the beer in his mouth, “It’s scary how much she looks like you, Rooster.” He sipped his beer and looked over at Leia, “Is she going to wear that mustache all night? Cause if she is, her callsign is just going to be Rooster Jr.” He laughed. 

“I really don’t know, she might want to keep it on all night if she gets the same attention I get with mine.” I winked at them.

Phoenix rolled her eyes, “You are so full of yourself, Bradshaw.” She scoffed and sipped her drink. 

“Where is everyone else at?”

Hondo looked at his phone, “They said they’d be here in 20 minutes. They’re getting more beer and some more food.” 

“I think I’ll wake up baby girl then.” I walked over to Leia and sat down slowly next to her. I rubbed her back and kissed her cheek. “Baby you have to get up now, The squad is here.” She groaned and turned the other way. I kept rubbing her back and gave her another kiss, “Okay baby when you’re ready.” I stayed with her until she woke up. She is definitely like me, she does not like having to wake up. 

Phoenix came and sat with me. “Let me try.”

Phoenix scratched Leia’s head, “Hey Leia, It’s Phoenix. Your daddy invited us over to come and see you, princess.” Leia turned and opened her eyes to look at Phoenix, she was squinting because of the bright lights and she smiled. Phoenix started to laugh, “I like your mustache.” She poked at it with her index finger. Leia looked at me, “Can I take the stache off, daddy? It’s itchy.” I nodded and peeled it off slowly. 

Phoenix looked at me with a slacked jaw. “She called you daddy, Rooster.” 

I nodded and smiled at her, “Yes, she does. It's the best nickname in the world.” Leia crawled into my arms and wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck. I stood up and carried her over to say hi to everyone. 

Everyone came up slowly to her and gave her high fives and kisses. She was so loved by everyone. The rest of the squad showed up with beer, apple juice for Leia, snacks, and presents for my girl. They all greeted Leia as she was still trying to wake up. 

“So I heard you wanted a ‘rad’ call sign, Leia?” Payback talked to her as she laid down on my shoulder.

She nodded her head, “Daddy said I have to get my call sign from a squadron.” 

Payback nodded at her, “We will take care of you, Captain Leia.” He patted her head and then patted me on the back, “I see you have a new nickname Rooster. It suits you well, bro.” 

I smiled at him and gave him a fist bump, “Thanks, man.” 

Coyote came up behind and kissed Leia on the forehead, “Hey baby Rooster! You look adorable in your flight suit.” He poked at the Tomcat patch on her shoulder.

She gave him a fist bump and laughed, “Hi, Coyote. Thank you, papa Mav got it for me.” She smiled sweetly at him.

Leia sat up and looked around and whispered in my ear, “Daddy can I go say hi to Bob?” She pointed to Bob as he sat on a stool sipping a beer and making conversation with Fanboy, Hondo, and Mav. 

“Of course, sweetheart.” I gave her a kiss on her cheek and she was on her way over. She put her hands out and Bob leaned down to give her a hug. Then put up his hand high, she jumped up, and gave him a high five. She started to show off her flight suit that Mav bought her. I smiled because she was starting to get comfortable with everyone.

I made my way through everyone and went out to the backyard to see Cyclone. 

“Admiral Simpson.” I patted him on the back as he continued to barbecue some ribs. He looked over his shoulder, “Bradley, please. No need for the formality out of work, Cyclone is perfectly fine.” 

I nodded, “Yes sir. So where is Warlock? Will he be coming?” 

He flipped a couple of ribs over and then closed the grill’s lid. “He won’t be able to make it, He had some things to get done after work. Hey, can you get me a serving tray? These are done.” 

I nodded and went into the kitchen to get a nice serving tray. I brought it back out and Cyclone loaded all the ribs onto it. I carried it into the house and set it on the stovetop. 

Cyclone started to cut them so they were in singles and not a slab. “All right ladies and gentlemen, ribs are finished.” He picked one up and started to eat it as he moved out of the way so everyone could get their food.  

Everyone lined up with their plates to grab some ribs. Fanboy carried Leia while Bob held her plate while she picked the ribs she wanted. I felt so at ease knowing my daughter had so many people that cared for and loved her. I knew you would be too.

Leia went and sat with Phoenix and Hangman on the couch to eat. She sat in between them giving them no room for comfort, but it didn't seem like they’d mind. 

Hangman helped Leia eat her ribs, “The messier you are, the better Leia. Really get your hands and face in there, sweetheart.” Hangman put his teeth to the ribs and started to rub them back and forth across his teeth. The sauce got all over his lips and cheeks. He looked at Leia as he did it and she copied. 

They laughed while Phoenix rolled her eyes. She got up and went to get a wet napkin for not only clean Leia’s face but Hangman’s too. 

“Thank you, Phoenix.” They said in unison. 

Hangman put his hand up for Leia to high-five. “Nice job, honey. The messier the better!”

Leia continued to rub her face in the rib. Then she gasped. “Daddy!” Her mouth gaped. “My tooth fell out!” She held it in her hand. 

Hangman leaned over and look into Leia’s hand, “Oh my gosh! She really did lose a tooth! Daddy Rooster, look!” He pointed down excitedly at Leia’s hand.

Phoenix ran over and cleaned up Leia. Leia ran over to me and laid against my chest, “Look, daddy! Do you think the tooth fairy will come? Will she know where to find me?”

I picked up her tooth and held it up high in the light. I looked around at everyone and smiled. I looked back down at Leia and smiled, “I most definitely think she will come, baby. She’ll know where to find you.” I kiss the top of her head and placed her tooth back into her hand. “Keep it safe, sweetheart!” 

Leia unzipped one of the pockets on her flight suit and placed her tooth in it. She zipped the zipper back up and patted the pocket, “Nice and safe!” 

Leia jumped around in front of me. She was so excited.

“Give us a big smile, Leia!” Fanboy called over to her.

Leia smiled and she lost one of her bottom baby teeth. She had already lost her two top front teeth. She looked so adorable. I couldn’t help but smile at her. She ran around the living area showing everyone her toothless grin. Everyone gave her high-fives. 

I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket. I pulled it out and you were FaceTiming me. I answered and your beautiful face showed up. You were just getting ready for bed after a long hard day at work. God, you looked so good. 

“Hey, my smart girl! Everyone is here.” I showed my phone around to show you every one.

I held my phone above my head with both hands, “Everyone say hello to y/n!” Everyone waved and said hi to you. “Hang on baby, I’m going to step into the backyard.” I went into the backyard and sat on one of the lounge chairs.

“Okay, now I’m alone. Hey beautiful.” 

“Hi, Bradley. I just finished work. One day down, five more to go.”

“You’re one more day closer, baby. Then you’ll be home and I’ll give you your full body massage.” I winked at you.

You smiled back and blushed, “I can’t wait. I miss you and Leia so much. How is she doing?”

“She’s fine baby, I promise. She actually just lost a tooth right now.”

“What! Really!? Which tooth came out?”

“One of her bottom front teeth, she looks so cute.” I laughed, “She’s showing off her toothless grin to everyone inside.”

“Aww how sweet! Make sure she puts it under her pillow for the tooth fairy.” You winked at me.

“I most definitely will, baby. The tooth fairies are going to be extra generous tonight.” 

“Fairies?”

“The squad is staying over tonight. They’ve all had some to drink.That and we all also have the next three days off.”

You nodded and smiled, “How is she doing with everyone?”

“She is great, we are all taking great care of her while you’re gone. She misses you, but I miss you more.” 

“That’s great to hear. I miss you too, Bradley. So any clue of what her call sign will be yet?”

“No, we aren’t sure or have even talked about it yet. But the night is still young. We have time. We are all off tomorrow. Thankfully.” 

“Mmm, well you’ll definitely have to tell me what it is when she is given one.” 

“I will baby. What are you going to do now?”

“I’m going to change out of these clothes and clean up.”

“Change in front of me, beautiful.” I smiled seductively at you. 

“Bradley Nicolas Bradshaw, your friends are over. I am not doing this now.”

“Come on baby, have a little fun.” I laughed. “Just a little bit. No one is going to see. I’ll even go somewhere else to make sure.” 

You sighed, “You owe me.” She smiled. “Should I give you a strip tease?” You bit your finger.

“I think you most definitely should, baby girl.” My breathing was baited. I had never asked anyone to do something like that over a call. I was really testing the waters now. You started to slowly undress and my body became tense. I got up and started to walk around the backyard. You continued to take off your shirt, then your slacks, left in just your bra and underwear.

“Should these go too?” You asked sweetly but nasty at the same time. 

I bit the inside of my cheek, “I really think they should.” I tried to keep calm, I felt my pants getting tighter and tighter. 

You slowly started to remove the remaining of your clothing, then you were there on the bed naked. I took a deep breath and admired the comfort you had with me. You were mine. All fucking mine. 

“Is there anything else you want me to do?” Your hands lingered over your body. I fucking wish they were mine. 

“Surprise me, baby.” I bit my lip. You looked at me with lust building up in your eyes. My baby was feeling super confident as you should. Then the sliding door opened and Leia came out, “Daddy Mav is looking for you, Is that mommy!?” She tried to grab my phone and I shoved it into my pocket. 

“No baby, I already hung up. But mommy said she will call later to say goodnight to you.” She nodded and walked back inside. I pulled my phone back out.

“Shit that was close. Mav is looking for me, baby. Can we continue later when it is just you and I?” I smirked at you. 

You nodded, “I can’t wait. I love you, Bradley.” You blew me a kiss.

“I love you, y/n.” I blew you a kiss back. Then you ended the call. 

I leaned against the wall. “Holy shit.” 

I shook my head and laughed. I straightened myself out and readjusted before I opened the sliding door to head back into Leia’s callsign party.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Leia lost a tooth with the squad 🥹 They were so excited for her. I can only imagine they’ll just shower her in gifts 😭 You and Bradley got a little intimate over the phone and were almost caught by your daughter 🫣 THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL, BESTIE. I’ll see you all in the next part, babes! 🫶🏼

[that-fanperson-meg]

Did somebody say

chapter two???

that’s right! I finally finished chapter two of my fanfic for @stardustshimmer’s Meta Pirate Au!!! (Sorry it took so long lol)

Ao3 Version <- if you prefer the formatting on there!

and without further delay here it is!!!

The early rays of the sun filtered through the water and brought light to a previously dark seafloor. Strands of kelp and seagrass functioned as a curtain, hiding the cove which the siren called home away from the world. The set of islands which sailors had dubbed ‘Popstar’ was idyllic for Dedede and his family; no ships ever sailed around the waters, no settlements were on the island itself, and most importantly, the food in the surrounding area was unmatched.

However, in the past two days, that had been turned on its head. Because now, Captain Meta and his ship were basically right outside Dreamland cove.

If Dedede had spent two seconds thinking before telling Meta where he could find him again, maybe wouldn’t have.

But he hadn’t. He’d told that swashbuckling captain exactly where he would be in hopes that they’d meet again. In hindsight, Dedede wasn’t sure why he did that. 

Maybe it had been the adrenaline of nearly losing the one thing that prevented him from turning into a raging sea monster that had been talking that night. 

Or maybe it was the fact that he’d seen something different in the captain, something that made his heart beat like crazy whenever Meta looked at him, something that the siren wish that he didn’t have a tail and could join Meta above the waves.

A second after Dedede heard his own thoughts, the siren stopped swimming and silently freaked out for a minute.

“Nope! Nope! Nope! I’m not thinkin’ ’bout that anymore- no siree! You can count me out!” Dedede told himself, with embarrassment and surprise in his voice.

Despite his best efforts, Dedede’s mind continued to linger on what his thoughts had said just a minute ago. Though the more the siren thought on it, wistfulness took hold. 

In his heart, Dedede knew Meta was meeting him for only two reasons; he had the Broach of the Sea King and every pirate that wanted to go down in fame knew that getting that broach would guarantee that; and just like Dedede, Meta was curious and simply wanted to know what it was like to live under the sea.

Eventually, Meta would leave him. It’s in a pirate’s genes after all, and why would anyone want to be with him?

He’s the last siren for a reason.

“King Dedede? Where are you?” Called a voice that the siren immediately realized was Bandana Dee.

A second later, Dedede continued swimming and found Bandana who upon seeing the siren wrapped their flippers around the king in the biggest hug that he could manage.

“Heya kiddo, whatcha doin’ up so early?” Dedede asked Bandana who had now let go of the siren.

The smaller fish seemed to hold a look of worry in their eyes, “I woke up a while ago, but I got really worried when I noticed that you weren’t there.”

The siren sighed, knowing that the situation could’ve been avoided if he’d simply returned back sooner. “Bandee, I’m sorry. I was out on my favorite baskin’ rock an’ I guess time got away from me.”

Bandana Dee held a weak smile in his eyes, “it’s fine. I just thought maybe…something had happened to you and..and I’m not strong enough to take care of me and Kirby.”

Not even a second after the Waddle Dee had finished their sentence, Dedede put his flippers on either side of his guppy. 

“Bandana, look at me. You’re one a’ the strongest Dee’s I know, if somethin’ were to ever happen t’me -which I promise, it’s not- you would be more than capable of protectin’ ya’self an’ Kirby. So don’t let me hear anymore of that self deprecatin’ nonsense!”

The Waddle Dee stopped for a second thinking over what Dedede had told them. Until eventually he held a smile in their eyes and quietly thanked the siren.

“Right, now let’s back ’fore Kirby wakes up.”                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a tried and true fact that at any point in time, something was happening on the Halberd. 

Whether that be Mace and Axe telling their tall tales to each other, Sword and Blade competing in arbitrary competitions against each other that almost always end with something getting broken, or even the occasional crew wide sea shanty that was brought down by Vul’s terrible singing.

The point being that there was never a dull moment.

However, that changed after the Halberd arrived on the Popstar Islands. As now they stayed anchored in waters that most people considered to be cursed, as opposed to sailing wherever the captain said was their next stop on the constant search for treasure. 

“You seeing anythin’ over there, Sword?” Called Blade from the other side of the ship.

With a roll of their eyes behind his mask the pirate responded, “no Blade, I haven’t seen anythin’ in the last two minutes since you asked me that same question.”

Sword hoped that his brother would take the hint and leave them alone for the rest of their shift. Though he knew Blade too well, and knew that hope wouldn’t come true.

“Do ya’ really think that the siren is actually hanging ’round this island?”

Choosing to give into answering his sibling’s questions, Sword replied, “if the cap’n thinks that he’s around here, I see no reason to doubt ’im. Plus we scared the Squeaks off, which basically means we have all the time in the world to find the guy.”

“Speaking of the cap’n,” the younger of the two pirates began, “why d'ya think he's taking the first shift of night watch so much?”

The pirate in teal armor thought for a minute, “my best guess is that he wants to find the siren first t’get some sort’a vengeance cause the guy got away from ’im with that broach.”

The conversation between the two siblings trailed off, leaving the deck of the Halberd quiet except for the distant sounds of waves breaking on rocks.

“Ya’know the other night I heard something weird from Trident.” Sword recounted.

A second later, Blade decided to interrupt, “what was it?”

“If ya’ let me get on with it, I’d tell ya’.” He said, voice rising with annoyance.

Blade grew quiet after that, and allowed their brother to continue.

“So last night, Trident had apparently gotten woken up by someone ’aving a conversation here on deck. He came to check what was going on, but the only person he found was the cap’n.” The pirate remarked.

Blade looked back out to sea, “that’s not that weird- maybe the cap’n was just talkin’ to himself?” They figured, sounding disappointed.

“But that’s not the weirdest thing of all!” Sword refuted, “Trident also said that Meta was playing concertina, why would a person -let alone the cap’n- play music and talk to ’imself if there wasn’t another person there?” 

The older pirate’s reasoning stumped Blade for a while. Out of all of the crew Sword and Blade knew the captain the best, and if what Trident said was true then there definitely had been someone else there that night.

A second later, Sword continued his thoughts, “I honestly think ’e’s trying t’lure out the siren with the music, ’e’s had stranger plans before I wouldn’t put it past ’im.”

“If ya’ think that,” Blade began, “then do ya’ think ’e’s gonna take first watch a third time in a row?”

Sword didn’t even wait a second before responding, “of course I do.”

“Well I guess all there’s left to do is wait ’till sunset then.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just the other day, the siren had been so excited to see Meta, that at the first chance he’d got to swim up to the surface he’d gone straight to the pirate’s ship.

Though this time, that level of giddiness had been replaced by the feeling of sea butterflies drifting around inside Dedede’s heart. But still, something in the siren made him want to return back to that ship, back to the captain that showed him that not all pirates were the same. 

The sea had become darkened as the sun dipped below the horizon, leaving the light of the moon reflecting on the waves.

After making sure one final time that both Bandana and Kirby were both asleep, Dedede began to swim towards the Halberd. 

Passing by coral of all hues and fish with silver scales that glistened in the light of the pale moon, the siren soon arrived where the Halberd was anchored. Rising just enough out of the waters so that Dedede could see the deck of the ship, he could see the distant lights of the lanterns and the figure of someone sitting atop the bulwark.

“Heya Meta!” The siren called and was greeted by the warm yellow eyes of the pirate captain.

“Greetings, Dedede.” Meta parroted, “it is a pleasure to see you once more.”

A smile found itself on Dedede’s face, “same here! How’ve things been above the waves?” 

“Same as yesterday, which is making my crew grow antsy- we normally do not spend much time in the same spot.” The captain mused.

“Ya’know I’ve been meanin’ to ask ‘bout them -your crew I mean-” Dedede told, “I can’t imagine there’s a ton’a folks that wanna become pirates, so where'dya find them?”

Meta paused for a moment, like he was recalling a fond memory. 

“I’ve known Sword and Blade since I was young; Trident was an old rival of mine; Axe and Mace were stowaways and had wanted to join the crew; and Vul offered to be the quartermaster and I let him because I owed him, as he helped me restore the Halberd to what she is now.” 

The siren paused for a moment not expecting such a straightforward answer, but afterward focused on the last part of what Meta said.

“Wait, ya’ didn’t steal ya’ ship? I thought all pirates did that- so did ya’ just…inherit it or sumthin’?”

The pirate chuckled, “well I suppose you could say something like that.”

Thoroughly confused, Dedede waited for Meta to continue his thoughts and give context.

“My mentor, the legendary Captain Galacta, had an armada of ships and the Halberd was but one of them. After he ceased sailing, the ships fell into disrepair, but I found the Halberd and decided that she would sail once again.”

That name stuck in the siren’s head for a moment, it sounded almost familiar. He couldn’t recall where he’d remembered it from, but deep down Dedede knew he’d heard that name before.

Eager to switch conversation topics, Meta found it was the right time to bring up the second reason that he’d come to the Popstar Islands.

“Oh, the treasure…” the siren said sheepishly, “yeah I’ve got treasure! Just give me a minute!”

With that, Dedede dipped back below the waves and it was at that time that Meta realized something that he’d hadn’t noticed as he had talked. 

The captain barely ever spoke of Galacta, -and those who did know about him never brought it up to Meta- but he’d talked about Galacta to Dedede so freely that it didn’t even register in the pirate’s mind. 

‘Why was talking with Dedede different than how he spoke with his own crew?’ Meta asked himself, trying to rationalize his actions. 

“I told ya’ I got treasure!” Dedede exclaimed, holding up a treasure chest with a lock that’d tarnished over time, and looked like it was barely keeping together.

The siren then proceeded to throw the chest onto the deck of the Halberd, rocking the ship with the force of the throw. After catching his hat before it fell into the waters, Meta made quick work of the lock and threw the lid of the chest off. 

For a minute, the captain was at a loss of words. He’d expected a fair sum of gold and perhaps some jewels from a chest that size -if most of its contents still were there that is-, but what the chest held was more gold than what was held in the Halberd’s own chests at that very moment.

“Dedede, where did you get this from? I don’t even think the Squeaks have this much gold.” Meta asked, dumbstruck.

The siren shrugged, “most’a it was actually gifts from the Waddles, and while it’s nice an’ all, I don’t really ’ave a use of any’a it and it was kinda just collectin’ barnacles, but you can actually use the loot and stuff.”

Still reeling from being handed such a large sum of treasure, the pirate couldn’t think of anything smart enough to say to Dedede to thank him, and left the siren in silence.

The moon’s pale gaze morphed with the waves, projecting its shine onto the deck of the Halberd while stars glistened high above the unlikely duo. 

“Ya’know Meta, before I met ya’ I was absolutely terrified of what was ‘bove the waves,” the siren admitted, “but if I’d known someone like ya’ were up ’ere, I would’ve swam up a long time ago.”

A moment after Dedede’s word’s registered into the pirate’s heart, Meta’s face grew warm like if only for a second the sun pierced through the darkness of night and shone on him, and him alone. 

From below him, Meta could hear the sounds of movement across the lower deck of the Halberd. Signifying to the captain that his meeting with Dedede was coming to an end.

Perhaps realizing this himself, Dedede was quick to give Meta his farewells. “I’ll see ya’ tomorrow, Meta!” The siren called, as he dove back into the briney waves.

The captain smiled, and replied back to no one, “until tomorrow, my king.”

London - 11 Nov 2022

This is a very late post but I had a lovely trip to London last month on 11-13 Nov! I procrastinated sorting through the photos but now I'm finally getting to some of them before I go again in two days.

These will be for the Queen memorabilia I got to from the three Hard Rock Cafes in London (location links attached)! You can click on each picture to see them in full. Please do not repost these photos!

1. Hard Rock Hotel London (Marble Arch)

My first impression of the hotel - it's fancy! It was lively and there were a lot of security guards standing by. But the ground floor area is pretty much open for public, because it's a hotel, so it was accessible for photos.

This lovely piano sits in the center of the hotel's front lobby and impossible to miss.

Freddie Mercury This humble Kirkwood piano is a true piece of history. It was in Freddie Mercury's Middlesex home in the mid '60s - shortly after his family arrived in England from Zanzibar. A teenaged Freddie played this piano while dreaming of the superstardom he'd achieve in just a few short years.

The back of the case which the piano sits in has a lovely photo of Freddie, which sadly I didn't get a picture of, so this one above is courtesy of Bianca Dodeanu who posted on Google Maps.

While the piano was the most famous Queen memorabilia there, I went to the restaurant to see if there were any more and I found this! As it was peak dinner-night-out hour, there were people sitting below it and I couldn't take a very clear picture - this was my best (left).

The description photo on the right is courtesy of Tina Vogelzang who posted it on Google Maps.

Queen In 1963, legendary Queen guitarist Brian May built his famous "Red Special" guitar with his father. It has been his main instrument throughout his illustrious career. In fact, Brian is the only notable rock musician who has forged a style with a completely homemade instrument. This Guild BHM1 model is one of the few officially-authorized, commercially available versions. It was manufactured in the '80s and signed by Brian May himself.

2. Hard Rock Cafe (Old Park Lane)

Next I went to the Hard Rock Cafe in Old Park Lane. This location consists of two separate places - the restaurant and the Rock Shop. I went to the restaurant first - it was significantly smaller and cozier than the other two I visited. But it was the best one for me, because this wall alone has three Queen memorabilia!

This one I think is my favorite among everything else!

Brian May - Queen Worn by Brian May while he was in a band called "1984" (C. 1966 to 1967)

This guitar is pretty amazing but I was wondering why on Earth it was put on display without any protection whatsoever. It was hung quite low on the wall, it would be so easy to get damaged. It's a shame that the signatures have all pretty much faded as well.

Queen Incorporating layered guitar and vocal effects as well as possessing one of the most dynamic frontmen in rock history, Queen was widely accepted by fans who were previously loyal to such bands as Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. This Fender Stratocaster was signed by all the members of Queen, including the late Freddie Mercury.

Lastly, this is a RIAA Gold Certification for Jazz.

Presented to: Radio One to commemorate the sale of more than 500,000 copies of the Elektra Records long-playing record album Jazz

After the pictures and dinner at the restaurant I made my way to the Rock Shop. It's in a separate building, and the basement level houses The Vault, which is a small museum of rock 'n roll memorabilia. There were a lot of high profile items in there but only one was Queen-related.

The Vault experience was apparently a guided tour. I barely made it like 20 mins before closing time and there was no other visitor, so I got myself a personal tour lol. My guide was very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor, I had a really great time!

Freddie Mercury - Queen Embracing the exaggerated pomp of progressive rock, heavy metal, as well as vaudevillian music hall, Queen created a huge, mock-operatic sound with layered guitars and overdubbed vocals. Apart from being one of the most flamboyant and entertaining frontmen in music, Freddie Mercury was also a keen collector of oriental antiques! This magnificent chair was owned by Freddie Mercury.

If anyone can translate what's written on the chair please let me know!

3. Hard Rock Cafe (Piccadilly)

My last stop! This place is quite big - I asked if I could go in to just take photos and I was let in lol. There was only one Queen-related item here but I love the screen display of Freddie, a very nice showcase.

Freddie Mercury - Queen The one and only Freddie Mercury used this Shure 565 microphone on stage. This model was Freddie's preferred mic for live use.

And that's all for my Hard Rock Cafe visits in London! I did all these in one go so it was a really fun night. I will also post the rest of my London photos where I visited Queen-related places very soon (hopefully)!

Hi! I wondered if you might post something about the top T&S dances casual fans might not know about (deep cuts, lol). As a newer fan, when I came upon "Into the Mystic" I was so excited and felt like I found something really special. I wonder what your faves and/or specific performances of those more 'hidden' performances might be. Thanks as always for helping us enjoy the T&S fandom. : )

Oh, I’m really going to struggle with this, lol. Because I was a fan for so long and because I was an obsessive fan, none of their programs seem like they might be unknown, to me. I mean, you say Into the Mystic and while I am genuinely happy that you were so excited to discover it, it wouldn’t occur to me to list it as something that would be unknown. (This is not intended to diminish you at all - I have had many of those discoveries myself, as have anyone who is new to or you know, not obsessive about, a subject. Those discoveries are awesome and exciting and should always be celebrated.). When I stop and think about it, Mystic was only skated during Stars on Ice and a show in China (IIRC) so I suppose it would be rather one of those ‘deep dive’ performances. At the time, it was known as being the program that VM choreographed in Scott’s kitchen, so it has it’s own fandom fame lol.

Probably the more obscure programs, to me, are the ones that VM were ‘required’ to skate to, because of an expectation in a show that they were performing in; because of that, there are often few to no recorded versions of the program, and I often don’t think much about them, as a VM skate, because they were not something VM themselves chose to skate to. And yet, they are rarely ones I tend to remember as there isn’t a lot of ‘connection’ to it - they didn’t choose the music, choreography will be recycled in bits and pieces from other programs, and there often isn’t an ‘official’ recording (television or streamed) and if we were lucky there is still fan recordings.

Instrument of Peace, in Shall We Dance On Ice 2010, skating to a live performance by The Canadian Tenors, fan camera. (There are television-filmed versions of this and the next, but particularly this one was interrupted by shots of the singers, so the fan cam is the way to go.)

The debut of their short dance, with filler where the Golden Waltz would be, at Shall We Dance on Ice 2010, fan camera.

Let It Snow, Winter Dreams on Ice. A wee local show, after Tessa’s surgery in 2010.

Good Kisser, Skate Niagara 2015, fan camera (while it was a VM-planned program and it was officially shown on camera for CSOI, the smaller venue and the close up camera and just that extra rawness of a brand new program make this my favourite version).

Ballet program, Festa on Ice 2008.

Valse Triste, Stars, Stripes and and Skates 2006 - another competition program debut during a show.

Prince, Stars on Ice 2017; they shifted their competition SD into an exhibition piece and it was seen only during CSOI; the competitive season would have had this as an exhibition, but with Gord Downie’s death, VM created Long Time Running instead.

Shine, Shine my Star, Moscow show in 2014, directly following the Sochi Olympics (they didn’t even go home and they seemed so tired lol).

And finally my ultimate favourite obscure: What’s Love Got to Do With It, Skate Niagara 2016. It was a ‘we’re in competitive shape’ masterpiece - showcasing plenty of new tricks and musical nuance and difficulty while emphasizing their improved showmanship after a couple of years of exhibition work. And of course, its own fandom-famous back story of locking eyes, knowing they had to skate to this while in a pub in Scotland, and a hint of the making-of this program in a CBC story, plus a the dopamine hit of them announcing their Comeback right before this debut.

Chills for me, every time.

My brother-in-law's birthday was on Thursday, so he wanted us all to go out to dinner at Olive Garden yesterday at 5:00. I wanted to go to Old Navy before dinner because it was the first day to use your Super Cash and there's one down the road from the restaurant, so my husband and I picked up his mom around 2:30. But while we were on our way there, we got a text that his niece had just come home from work not feeling good, so they wanted to reschedule it for the following weekend. We decided to keep going anyway, so we still went to Old Navy. I found a couple tops I had seen on the website and looked around at some other stuff, and then I went into the fitting room. Before I show you what I tried on, here's the outfit I was wearing:

Cassie and Katelyn want us to dress up like Charlie's Angels with black tank tops and black leggings for our Halloween class, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only female in the world who didn't own a black tank top already. So I found this one and tried it on:

I liked it so I decided to get it, and then I also tried on these tops:

I ended up getting the dark purple turtleneck and the light peach sweater. The one in the middle was a little too baggy even in the smallest size. I know it's supposed to be oversized, but I like things a little more fitted. It looks like it leans towards turquoise in the picture, but it's more of an emerald green in real life. If I change my mind and decide I want it, I could order the petite version of it to make it a little smaller. While I was waiting in the checkout line, I grabbed two scarves with yellow, orange, and white stripes like candy corn for my kitties to wear on Halloween because they don't really like the orange shirts I got them from there last year. I used some of my Super Cash and I still have some left! It was still too early to eat, so we went to Barnes & Noble around 4:30.

On the table you see as soon as you walk in the door, my attention was immediately drawn to a book that looked like something I would read. So I picked it up and opened it, and then it definitely looked like something I would read!

You see, I love it when books have dates in them. I guess that's because I've always kept a journal. I also love it when books have emails, letters, text messages, or any sort of chat in them. This one has both! Also, the main character has a cat. lol. My husband said he would give it to me for Christmas, so he paid for it. (Now I just have to wait until January to read it.) Then we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. There was a pretty tree that had fall decorations on it at the entrance.

I had a sangria margarita and a grilled chicken and steak combo with mushrooms, rice, and mashed potatoes. They were really good!

There was one more shirt I wanted from Old Navy, but for some reason it isn't available in stores and they were all out of my size online. But my size had been coming and going over the past couple days, and I've run into that a few times before where I still ended up being able to get something I thought was out of stock, so I kept an eye on it.

This morning I opened the website in my internet browser and kept refreshing the screen over and over every few minutes, like in that episode of The Big Bang Theory when they're all trying to get tickets to Comic Con at the same time (but not quite as quickly as they did). Finally there was one available in my size, so I grabbed it as fast as I could before it was gone again. It should be here next week!

[madhatterplushies]

Question, I want to make character plushies ✨someday✨ and I'm really curious.

How do you make the faces that look like, embroidered on? Like how does it work?

Sorry to bother! Hope you have a great day!

They are embroidered!

You can purchase smaller home embroidery machines (versus big industrial ones) and either buy or make files for them. My first machines were Brother PE770s (started with one, bought a second after a while) but I think the current version of that machine is now the PE800? There's smaller machines like the SE400 series but I'd recommend saving up for something with a 5x7" hoop so you don't outgrow it too fast and make sure to shop around locally and online to find the best price.

The PE machines are embroidery only while the SE can switch between a regular sewing machine mode and embroidery mode but personally I'd recommend getting a separate sewing machine. There's other brands too but I've only used Brother machines for embroidery and Singer for sewing 💦 It's worth looking at local shops though to see what they have and what they can service as you'll likely be getting your machine serviced annually for tune-ups.

The other thing to note is you'll need to either buy embroidery files or make your own. I use SophieSew which is a free program but pretty buggy lol The creator had planned a lot of updates but then apparently passed away. I've still been using it for ~7 years 🤷 There are better programs but they can be quite pricey, I'd personally recommend avoiding programs like SewArt that can only auto-digitize (auto converts from a picture but doesn't allow any real control, often leads to gaps in the final designs). There's also lots of folks on etsy who sell embroidery files and some can make you files on commission! If you make your own just keep in mind you'll need to stitch out the test to see the final results- the programs cannot take into account all the physical variables so you need to run a physical test and see how it acts in real life then make adjustments based on that!

Besides the machine you'll need specific embroidery thread (not all-purpose thread) and 40 or 60 weight bobbin thread plus stabilizers to go under (and if a fuzzy fabric also over) your fabric so keep in mind you'll need to spend a chunk on supplies as well.

Here's a tiktok I made a while back showing the process for an AC charm commission (not counting making and testing the file lol). This one is made with my current machine which is a 10 needle semi-industrial but the basic mechanism is the same! Your files basically act as instructions for what the machine will stitch out.

Sorry for the wall of text xD Hope it helps!

Guess it's been a while since I've added any items to my Marshall collection. I was trying to cut back because I spent a little too much earlier this month... but I can't say no to merchandise of my favorite character for too long! Besides, the items you see here, believe it or not, only cost me around $6 in-total!

This cute hat was found at a Goodwill. It was only $1, too! It can't fit me, but I'm sure I can find a spot for it in my collection somewhere.

While browsing around a flea market, I found a booth that had six storage totes full of small toys. While searching through them, I found plenty of PAW Patrol merch, including some of Skye, Rocky, Zuma, and of course, Marshall! Most of them were ones I already had, but then I found this one. I had no idea they made one where he can lower his head like this. Outside of a bit of missing paint around his paws, it's in good condition, too. It was only $1, so... sold! :)

Now I just wonder what set this originally came from. Anyone know?

My folks actually found this at a Dollar General. It's got some really cute artwork! Naturally, I really love the way Marshall looks on it! Makes me wish we could get a 2D animated version of the cartoon.

Last, this 12" plush! I found it at a different flea market, and much to my surprise, it was only $1! Amusingly, that bottle was $3, so it was the most expensive of the four! lol

Of course, this thing was cheap for a reason, and you can probably tell why; it's pretty dirty, and it has a bunch of loose threads here and there (left cheek, the dots next to his nose, etc.)

Even worse, some of its seams were starting to pop loose. I didn't notice this until I got home, though at that price, I probably still would've bought it, anyway. This poor thing's had a rough life...

So... let's fix it! Hey, I've purchased a few items at flea markets before that I ended up fixing myself, and I do have some sewing knowledge. Let's see what I can do to restore some life into it!

Now, while I say I have some sewing knowledge... admittedly, it's nothing I can brag about. I have a general idea of what I'm doing, but nobody's gonna go calling me up as their go-to expert. lol

With that said, my repair turned out quite well! It's still a bit noticeable, but it certainly gets the job done!

Afterwards, I decided to give this thing a bath. I forgot to get pictures of this, but basically I just filled my bathroom sink with warm water, poured in some laundry detergent, and dipped the thing in while gently yet firmly rubbing all the dirty spots. After washing it off one final time and then gently squeezing the plush to remove as much water as I could, I placed it in front of a fan overnight help it dry.

(Word of advice; do this if you want to clean a plush. Do NOT put it in a washer & dryer, else it WILL get torn up and ruined.)

The results? I think it looks so much better now! A tiny bit scruffy because of the wash, but I just need to brush my finger over some of the fur to fix that. Overall, I'd say my hard work paid off, because I think it now looks nearly as good as new!

Funnily enough, this plush is quite similar to another I own, only smaller. It's like the younger brother to the bigger one. lol

That's all for now! I've got three more things coming in the mail soon, so hopefully I'll get to show those off by the end of the week. Perhaps a few more, though I haven't ordered them yet because I can't decide which one to pick (a backpack, or a plush based on his movie design).

Week 9: April 10th – April 16th, 2023 // The highs ‘n’ lows

It’s been a week of many highs n lows, physically and emotionally, and it’s bringing out a lot of reflection (seems to happen quite naturally when you’re completely solo).

--

Monday finally got a move on! Was feeling super stoked to hit the road and travel through the Great Ocean Road.  I managed to find a free hot shower in Lorne and do a little bit of wandering around.  It’s a really cute little ocean front touristy town – kind of reminded me of a smaller version of the main street in White Rock back home!  My drive involved many stops at little view points and beaches – ended up at Sheoak Falls which then took me from a 15min stroll to a 1.5-hour hike.  Views were pretty mediocre, but felt really nice to get on a trail again. I ended up spending a good few hours of my day just driving until I found a spot to sleep for the night.

--

Tuesday really changed the tone… I woke up early, feeling really good, sun was shining, skies were totally clear; Was feeling super energized and ready to cover a lot of ground.  I went down to the beach to do a sunrise yoga flow, and about 20minutes in I ended up tweaking the muscles in my neck REALLY badly… like couldn’t move my neck, hurt to take deep breaths bad… I was feeling SO defeated from this and really worried what this could mean for the rest of my trip.  Thankfully I have pain meds and Tiger Balm, so I just set myself up in bed and did my best to massage things out and not move much.  This meant my day consisted of a whole lot of nothing and mindless scrolling.  I actually ended up deciding to start watching all the Spiderman movies from the very beginning lol. I’ve been wanting to for a while now and figured what better time than when I have nothing else going on and literally can’t do anything else… so I’m now halfway through the 4th…

--

I woke up the next day thankfully in a lot less pain but definitely still limited mobility.  I desperately needed some type of win for the day to boost my moral, so I spent the morning getting my van better organized. I sorted through the “pantry” and cut up some boxes to create little compartments in the different drawers to keep things separated and minimize the amount of “free roaming.”  I did this back home with most things, have for years, and it makes SUCH a difference for keeping your space feeling cleaner and easier to sort through.  

The movement was really helping my neck feel a bit better, so I managed to get on the road and make my way to the 12 Apostles! The views along the way were SO stunning.  The Great Ocean Road covers such a variety of landscapes that I really wasn’t expecting – there’s beaches, 100+ metre cliff’s, farmlands, little towns, and a rainforest… the rainforest was such a pleasant surprise and SO stunning to drive through.  There was a nice little trail just off the highway that I made a quick stop to explore (there are other bigger hikes that I definitely want to return and do one day).

I got to the 12 Apostles closer to sunset and it was SO busy… I walked out towards the boardwalk, saw the crowds and said “NOPE.” I got a quick view of the Apostles and made the decision to find a spot nearby for the night and to get up early to spent some time at the Apostles for sunrise the next day instead.

--

This turned out to be a GREAT idea! Not only was there hardly anyone there, but the views were so much more magical.  I lucked out with a clear sky and the most stunning cotton candy coloured sunrise.  I ended up committing to a time-lapse and stayed there for about 1.5 hours.  

The day was a lot of stopping at stunning view points, and driving.  I made a little pit stop at a beach to read for an hour, then a restock on some groceries, water and better cleaning some dishes, before driving another couple hours to find another spot for the night.

I think I’ve been really lucking out on my sleep spots, which I’m REALLY trying not to take for granted, because I know it’s not going to be like this the entire time…  There’s been a few spots where it’s debatable on whether I’m allowed to be there or not, but I think because I’m travelling in the “off” season, no one is really checking in on these areas.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed this continues for these coastal spots especially ‘cause there’s really not much better than a free spot next to the ocean!

--

Friday wasn’t really anything notable.  I spent the majority of the day just driving, found another free hot shower passing through Portland, then found a spot for the night near a windmill farm and a secluded beach!  It turned out to be a hidden gem for people to walk their dogs, so had a handful of people come and go, but was such an ideal spot for the night!  Had beautiful weather and desperately needed the doors open, but the bugs were insane… so I was forced to finally DIY my bug net I bought a while ago.  I spent the rest of my evening looking into jobs for my visa and learned that I got the volunteer photographer position with Sea Shepherd that I applied for a couple weeks ago!! I’m SO stoked for the opportunity and what this could mean for future opportunities, so I’m now just waiting to get a better idea on event locations to see if I might change up the route a bit (for the billionth time lol I swear the plan changes every week).

--

I woke up the next day in a really low mood and decided to allow myself to sit in it rather than fight it.  I spent my time reading, watching friends, and sleeping.  I eventually reached a point where I knew this was going to stick around longer if I didn’t act, so finally late afternoon I dragged my ass down to the beach and went for a nice evening walk. Between the sun coming out and moving my body, it forced me to reflect a lot on patterns that show up in my life, and ones that I know show up for others as well.  When you find yourself stuck in your head, the only way to really cut this and bring clarity to your thoughts and the feelings that are arising are by moving your body.  Writing the thoughts is equally beneficial, but the movement allows you to redirect the energy that is building up inside you and being spent on thoughts, and gives you the momentum you need to pull yourself out of those low spaces to act on the things you really want to.

As expected, the walk did absolute wonders for how I was feeling.

--  

Sunday I woke up EARLY. Like 3:45am early.  My mind and body were wide awake since I ended up with a solid 7hours of sleep, but it felt way too early (and was way too dark outside) to do anything – so I found myself mindlessly scrolling again.  When I finally pulled myself out of the cycle, I had a bit of a reality check when I realized how much time I’ve been spending on my phone during this time alone.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve done a lot of productive and fulfilling things for myself, but being completely on my own has made me realize I’m looking for connection and going about it in an unproductive way (will be talking more about this in a separate post).  I ended up spending the morning doing a lot of journaling/reflecting, got myself to finally start working out again (been saying I would for MONTHS), reading, and made myself a good breakfast while listening to some podcasts and taking in the beautiful morning (got lucky with a few rainbows and sun).

I also spent some time setting up daily reminder alerts to make sure I’m drinking plenty of water, making time for intentional movement, checking in with myself, and investing time into creating + learning.   Redirecting my days to focus on the things that matter to me.

I hit the road once again by around 10:30 and made a stop at the Tantanoola Cave!  Normally it’s a $15 entrance fee but the person at the front desk snuck me in at the last minute without charging me!  Highly recommend making the stop if you’re looking for something to do – the cave was really cool and the tour was very well done.

The rest of the afternoon involved a lot more driving, officially crossing into South Australia, getting stuck on a beach (won’t be doing that again lol thankful to all the people that helped me out), caught up on messages from the past few months, read lots, and found a STUNNING spot next to the ocean to stay for the night!

--

All in all, it’s been a really rewarding and eye opening week for me with some really exciting updates to come in the next couple weeks.

Stay passionate and curious, Hunter♡

[psychoticwillgraham]

part 1 of my big ass list of hannigram au’s that yall are free to do in case i never do them

for fans of this brilliant niche anime, an au of hozuki’s coolheadedness. that’s it, that’s the idea (I rlly need to rewatch it)

on that topic, an ugly Americans or your pretty face is going to hell au (that one has SO much comedic potential). in the UA au beverly and Will are roommates, I just need to rewatch these

a repo! the generic opera au: basic plot: obviously hannibal is the repo man and like in canon is Will’s ‘psychiatrist’ and Will has generally the same role. Will has to investigate a series of murders where the victims organs are taken and they’re displayed like art (like in the show), but geneco denies that the repo man did it because even they don’t have the organs that were supposed to be taken. obviously it’s hannibal, and it turns out that he’s gone rogue

fairy tale ish au: Will still has the same job as he does in the show, but is also a god of nature and righteous revenge (he investigates murders and also avenges them by catching and killing the killers). Hannibal is the same as in the show, but is a god that’s akin to being the devil, but not quite (im gonna have to work this out lmao). They have the same roles as in the show, but when they first meet, they both know of each other’s divinity.

fairy tale ish au vers. 2: OR the second option of not adhering to the show yet still the same divinity concept. hannibal would be the obvious, overtly ‘evil’ opposite of Will, but obviously in character if this makes any sense lol. They always encounter each other when Will learns of a murder and tries to avenge them by killing Hannibal.

purgatory au (version 1): there’s a cafe that’s on the border or life and death where souls from those in comas or near death experiences go to relax for as long as they need to before going back to the living world or start their journey to the afterlife.

purgatory au (version 2): Will dies, and wakes up in a bar in the middle of nowhere. turns out, it’s a ‘holding place’ for the souls whose final destination is undecided. it’s usually reserved for souls like Will’s that are deeply fucked up but still have a chance for redemption. Hannibal is the god of purgatory and has the last judgement on these souls where he’ll either send them to heaven (very rarely), hell, or doom them to roam the lands of purgatory for all eternity (who tempt souls like Will to commit grievous sins, therefore getting them sent to hell).

hannibal uses will as a vessel for demons to inhabit and uses said demons/black magic to torture him. eventually, Will learns how to harness the power of the magic/demons and uses them to torture and kill hannibal as his revenge.

my boy builds coffins (Florence + the machine song fic): -Will and Hannibal live in solitude, and Hannibal is a prolific serial killer and Will is a woodworker who makes wooden coffins for what’s left of Hannibal’s victims for the family of the said victim. Hannibal picks his target and kills them, and shortly after, Will visits the family to get input on what coffin the family wants for their loved one. They both attend the funerals, since this is a smaller community therefore everyone knows each other, and nobody ever suspects a thing. Hannibal throws a dinner party in celebration of the victim and invites their family while eating said victim without anyone knowing.

They have Abigail with them and teach her how to kill and prepare the meat and cover her tracks. eventually, Hannibal fucks up and accidentally kills someone very important in town, so he rushes home to Will to warn him that they’ve got until probably dawn to prepare to be captured. Will already made one coffin for each of them, and they’d already had a suicide pact made. So they spend their last night in each other’s arms and have sex for the last time.

At midnight on a full moon, they prepare to do it, and Hannibal informs Abigail that Will will die first, killed by Hannibal and dying in his arms, then Hannibal will prepare him for burial and place him in his coffin and bury him on the grounds of their property. Then Hannibal will kill himself over Will’s grave, and have Abigail prepare and bury him right next to Will. What Abigail does afterwards is entirely up to her, whether she decides to take her own life or leave the town and make a life for herself (everything’s been arranged if she chooses this). All of this happens and Abigail stays and informs the police of what happened, that it was a murder suicide. After the dust settles, she leaves and goes off on her own, returning to the house 10 years later, talks to the both of their graves, prepares herself and her coffin in a shallow grave, shuts the coffin lid and kills herself in it, in the grave just below Hannibal and Will’s.

Then it ends with the three of them becoming a local legend years down the road, about their reign of terror, meant to scare people away from the forest where they lived. Nobody disturbs the house and it rots, the three of them becoming more of an urban legend. The final scene describes a wandering traveler who happens on the dilapidated house and the graves, and sees Will’s ghost standing over a fresh coffin, which is a perfect fit for the person and done in the way they would want it to be done, and Hannibal and Abigail’s ghosts all staring at them and gesturing towards to coffin for them to get in. The person runs and we end on the sound of laughter from the three of them. (there’s gonna be some real creepy dialogue here about how Will made coffins for everyone, and that’s includes you, addressing the person)

non hannigram au’s

-Constantine/Will: AU where Constantine is in Virginia for some reason and ends up hearing tales of a local shut in (Will) out in remote Wolf Trap that everyone is absolutely sure is a God, one that’s been long forgotten by the world. He’s said to be able to see through anyone’s eyes, to experience their true nature due to his extreme empathy, to discern who is truly good or evil. But that gift, or rather curse, is what made him infamous. It eventually drove him mad, seeing through the eyes of the most wicked of humanity, empathizing far too much with those who killed and destroyed. It began to fundamentally change him, make him become a monster. So one day, he just vanished.

Abandoning those who worshipped him, just so he wouldn’t become a mad god. All of this time later, as the generations forgot him, he became secluded, choosing to be alone in a cozy little house, tucked away in an area of the woods where no mortal had access to. Nobody could get in, only he could get out, the only way in being if he favored you and subconsciously guided you to where he lay hidden away from the rest of the world.

John is immediately fascinated by this, knowing of the existence of ‘forgotten gods’, but never actually being able to track one down. Of course nobody actually knows what this god looks like, except that he prefers to look like a regular human and most likely walks among them every day going undetected. John is obviously not happy with the lack of clear leads on the god’s location or appearance, but decides to just hang around the town for a while as a vacation away from London.

That night, John dreams of a ravenstag, of being torn apart by faceless beings. But just as he thinks he’s about to die, the stag saves him and takes him deeper in the forest, safe and away from harm. When he wakes up, he’s in the same forest he dreamt of, extremely confused as to how he got there. But suddenly he feels an invisible pull, a deep, yet sweet slightly southern accented voice floating through his mind, guiding him on the suddenly revealed path. Eventually he comes upon the fabled god’s house, and finally sees the fable in the flesh.

Constantine/Will smut: After John has a particularly stressful and draining few weeks of cases, he asks Will to dominate him and take complete control, to not let him think for himself or make any decisions for a few hours, basically giving himself completely over to Will. Will is obviously nervous but agrees. At the end of the night, John cries, but not because he’s upset. He cries because this means that he’s finally able to trust someone like Will with something like this, to finally give up total control on his own terms and to trust someone else enough to be truly intimate. kinks included: choking, restraints/cuffs/rope/stuff like that, gags, heavy d/s and bdsm, humiliation, dirty talk, cock rings, orgasm denial, blood play, knife play, collars/leashes, consensual violence

schneeplebro: schneep is a scientist/doctor who rehabilitates magical creatures that have been injured or mistreated and one day, he gets a call about an angel (Chase) who had been captured by black market traders who had cut off his wings when he tried to escape, therefore making him no longer valuable to the rich ‘collectors’ who wanted him, so they left him to die in an abandoned building. schneep rescues him and begins to figure out a way to help him get his wings back through science.

#sorry for the wall of text I just copy pasted my notes app #john constantine/will graham is THE random ship of all time #and here’s the thing: it’s entirely plausible bc of the nature of John’s character #need to make headcanon posts for that ship hmm

[moveslikeanape]

hey! i'm sorry you've been so busy lately, i hope things calm down for you soon. though i know the holiday season can be a busy time for a lot of people. also, i agree that it's really surprising to me that there's no little mermaid art book. several other films have gotten either brand new books or rereleases of their existing ones to coincide with live action remakes or anniversaries, for example i was finally able to buy the mulan book when they rereleased it because of the remake in 2020, and i have the snow white one that was released in 2012 for that film's 75th anniversary! but there's nothing for the movie that started the disney renaissance and basically saved the company back then.

i actually did recently buy the book "the little mermaid: the full film script", and it has some interesting production notes and concept art... however it's only 150 pages or so, and they're small pages. the actual dimensions of the book are much smaller than any other disney/pixar art book i own, so it's not as easy to see the details in the art and its 150 pages contain nowhere near the same level of information and artwork as the art of frozen's 160 pages do, if that makes sense. not to mention that the reason it's called "the full film script" is, of course, that the script of the movie is also printed throughout the book, taking up space on the pages. it only cost me $15, so i ended up considering it worth it for the price, but i really wish there was a full art of book for the little mermaid in the same vein as the others!!

do you own the tarzan chronicles book? and if so, i'd be curious to know what you think of it! i saw a review of it that made it sound fascinating to read, and mentioned that it had a section detailing the research trip the creators took to africa while working on the film. the art of mulan also had a section about that that i loved reading.

-🌟

Thank you so much! It's mostly just work being crazy and way to many projects at home on the go, lol.

You're lucky with the Mulan one! I bought the first edition maybe 6 or 7 months before they rereleased it. Oh well, it's so worth it!

I have the TLM Full Film Script too. What's in there is nice, but I completely agree with you it's no match for a proper art book. Hopefully someday Disney will give that movie the art book it deserves…

I do own it! I bought it back in 1999 (was actually bought with my first paycheck from my first job!) Haven't read through it in ages though, but there's so much brilliant stuff in there. The section on the research trip is wonderful, lots of great photos and sketches too. I've been hoping to find a cheap copy of the book that I can take apart and scan. It's such a big book, and too heavy and awkward to scan… plus I'm worried about damaging my current book. (Also, someday I need to get my hands on the LE signed version, but it's always way too expensive!)

Will definitely give you a heads up if I ever find a decently priced copy!

My adoration for Hera tends to be a bit quieter and more subdued than the way I worship Dionysus & Ariadne & those close to them, but she is very high among the gods who make my heart sing the loudest.

An absolutely pivotal step of my spiritual journey happened when I realized I needed to make amends to her & implore her for forgiveness.

Primarily because I had been the "Other Woman" to several men throughout my life, feeling very little shame and even loudly justifying myself ('its not my job to police other people's relationship boundaries, I'M not the one making the choice to cheat lol, u can't wreck what's already broken,' etc), and for the relationships in my youth I purposefully destroyed by being unfaithful. I also cried to her my deepest apologies for every 'lol jealous nagging wife' style joke/dismissal I had spoken of her before I knew the gods as more than stories. Some smaller & less remarkable offenses I saw as touching her domain as well.

My first apologies and offerings did NOT feel as if they had been accepted, and I feared none ever would be. It wasn't a rejection as such; if my intuitive sense gave Magic 8 Ball answers, this was a "don't count on it" but not a "my sources say no"

Then! I experienced something closer to being cheated on than anything I'd felt before. (I'm not monogamous or sexually jealous so it's no simple matter for me to experience those feelings! Think more like an emotional affair though)

The following year of my life was a MASSIVE upheaval, full of struggles and painful emotions that pushed me to my limits... but it was also an unprecedented period of spiritual and emotional growth, of healing long-festering wounds, of dedication to becoming the best version of myself.

My religious practice expanded greatly in study & structure, became much more formal and traditional than the unmitigated manic maenad madness of my intuitive & wild-eyed first years. I was shifting towards giving all the gods their due instead of only praising those who first lit that fire of madness in my soul, but Hera received the greatest share of this new piety & more orderly reverence. Her influence in my life and in the world became obvious to me in ways I'd never seen before.

I would tell her of my growing gratitude, describe the spouse & child I hoped to become worthy of, and I would reaffirm those tearful apologies I first spoke to her. It felt like my contrition was a little more accepted with each of those prayers, until one day when I prayed to her and no longer felt like it was meant to end on a 'sorry.' Nothing miraculous or spectacular happened, no "APOLOGY ACCEPTED" written in the clouds, I just had the sense that it was over and no longer expected of me.

In the weeks after that last remorseful prayer, I began rapidly reconciling with the love of my life, and I could see the first dawn light of a wonderful future appearing on my horizon. I had to weather one final, terrible, traumatic night to cap off this Saturn Return/quarter-life-crisis shit, but that very incident gave me cause to move back to what never stopped being 'home' for me, and begin the joyful life I have now.

So much of what is good in my life right now was granted by Hera, and I feel oddly appreciative that it took so much work and dedication to become worthy of those blessings. There's no chance I'll ever take it for granted this way! Plus if I find myself praying for something I don't yet feel deserving of, that doesn't make it a wish doomed to failure; I just might have to work harder to earn it.

#this started in the tags of another post but then spiraled COMPLETELY out of control 😂 #idk what i should tag this #i would love if i could reach hera lovers with similar experiences #or people in an earlier shittier part of this sort of thing #but i feel really shy and weird about just tagging it with hera or helpol or whatever 😳🫣 #im also feeling good about my writing here! at least so far as pieces banged out at 6 am cuz you took too much adderall go #i left some things out and oversimplified others that i would include or expand on if i was just telling the story of this part of my life #cuz they didnt seem relevant to this post/hera and it was fixing to be a long ass post no matter what lol #infidelity cw

I am a sucker for TV shows that take time to find unique and beautiful sound track music to help create the mood.

Dark TV Series is my current fascination. I'm currently in the 3rd season of this show and can't stop watching it. Although it's not exactly the greatest show on earth There are two aspects I love about this show. One of them is the precise casting process of casting agents. They show several different versions of the same person, changing by 33 years. This is a wonderful moment to prove my point. Music is another thing that I loved about the show. We must also mention the plot. Then Dark is definitely number 1. But we are definitely not going to discuss the plot, the twists and the really wicked plots of the TV show. Instead, I'd like to concentrate on the music, or the soundtrack, in as such, the ambience, the background, the sound effects that create moods that sums the whole thing: the music. It has been a great group effort to pick music. They go out looking for the songs that make or break the mood in the crucial moments of the show. They succeed. I can't even imaginehow that this show exists and make the kind of waves it has without the music that it plays..

The strangest and most ear-worm memorable song I have in my head now is that weird lullaby.. I don’t know if TV shows require that the music be mentioned at the end of the song. https://mp3.lol/ Perhaps they're capable of finding music from the public domain that doesn't need to be credited. But I do remember having to search this song by the lyrics instead of the title, simply because the title was not to be located. So I finally came across the Youtube page for the track. It's Bonaparte. Take a look at the video I've posted. Can you be a part of my opinion? This is the most bizarre song, but it's so captivating... I'm fascinated by the music and the show. I'm so obsessed with the music and the show that I created my own mixtape. I converted tomp3 to get all the music saved to my computer and made two CDs for me. In normal times, I'd download videos from Youtube. But this time I realized that the music I was looking for was on CDs. Do I sound like an old man? Or am I an older person? It's not my intention to judge you However, my car is equipped with a great sound system. Youtube audio does not have the best sound quality and it definitely lacks bass. It's all about mp3 encryption. It eliminates frequencies that are barely audible in the human ears. It also allows it lots of virtually useless sound to be removed and makes the mp3 files smaller and more ear-friendly. Prior to going to bed I'll still play the videos I've saved to my tablet. The boombox can be connected via blue tooth and transmits music to it which creates a wide range of sounds. I don't require mp3, so I listen to music at home and also watch videos. I prefer the format of mp4 for my tablet. Both were simple to download using online converter and two mp3 tools. The webapp lets users access websites much faster and can be downloaded offline. Use the built-in Search function to locate Youtube videos. You could also download them in MP3 or mp4 to save to your device. Easy as day, you now can build your own mixtape of music from Dark. Or any other show or movie. This concept has unlimited potential. The songs you like from the present, the future and 50 years ago is available on Youtube.

Never talk to me or my mind partner or a slightly smaller me or his slightly smaller mind partner again

#Vargas #Lol #Finally the smaller versions have a home lol #Those are the printed size of the version I uploaded before - so if you want small bookmarks leave it at that size #And how they compare to my 1.5x bookmarks which are my current main ones #Still haven't printed any other versions but I'm sure I will sometime in the near-ish future #It's a little funny 'cause they go on adventures a little like Flat Stanley lol #I was reading two books at a time a bit ago so I had to split up Edgar and Scriabin to keep my pages #I made sure to keep them thematic to each book tho! Edgar got the book about a biblical war and Scriabin got mind invasion lol #They're back together now tho ♥ #And now the little ones aren't just flying around my area free and breezy they get to live in my new book #It's a little funny seeing how I draw draw chibi Edgar all roundy with soft edges and then there he is on the page lol #It's also funny seeing their tiny hands sticking up out of the pages - it's oddly approprite #My question is how long until I start treating this like a colouring book #How far does my respect for the original tip the scale against my distaste for the gift-giver lol #I could break and impulsively ink some scars onto that face any day! Lol #Y'all seen the concept art for the machine? There's even a straight-on headshot of Edgar in pencils it's really lovely #And the pencil of that little smile Nny gives when explaining how to pronounce his name haha

[agape-bakery]

I'm happy you open your box again yeesss ^-^ I love your writing ;w;

So I was thinking we always see obey me character with a kid mc for whatever reason you want BUT what if it's them who turn kid for once ?! So can you make simeon, beelzebub and a character you want turning kid again because of a solomon sort please ^^

💫

Cute! And definitely chaotic lol- And thank you so much! I'm glad you like my writing!! ^^

Simeon, Beelzebub, and Lucifer turning into Kids

Solomon was known to be quite strong with his sorcery, while not as powerful as others, it was not to be messed with nonetheless. After an accident regarding an age manipulation spell, the human told you that it would most likely take hours or even a day until the spell wears off, and suggests that you take care of him in the meantime. It was up to you to take care of your boyfriend until he turns back to normal.

Lucifer

He was there to make sure that you both were safe due to his position being the vice president (and as your boyfriend)

He didn't expect to be the one being hit

You panicked, to say the least

"SOLOMON, IS HE DEAD?!?!?!"

"He's unconscious, MC."

Slowly, you see his body grew smaller and smaller until his clothes were far too big for him

He woke up seconds later only to find that you were staring down at him and that you and Solomon were far too taller and larger than him, what was going on???

He looked down to see tiny hands...OF A CHILD

As Lucifer was the eldest and the most powerful out of the brothers, he still had the mindset of an adult

The eldest was pissed but knew that being angry wouldn't change anything so he let himself get dragged to Luke for new clothes, considering they have the same body type

"You're much cuter now that you're a child." You coo at a pouting Lucifer

"Don't let my brothers see me in this form." He fears to see their reactions, no doubt ready to tease him like a parent feeding a toddler

"They'll be unsupervised without you there, though." After hearing that, all the common sense threw itself out the window and he held your hand to go to the House of Lamentation

"You're correct, let's go now, immediately, before they do something they shouldn't-"

Once the brothers saw a young Lucifer in his cute overalls and tiny shoes, they all took a minute of shock before laughing at his face

"Does that mean I'M the eldest and most powerful now??? HAHAHAHA!!!"

"I will not hesitate to leave you tied up at our rooftop."

Despite his very serious warnings, the brothers thought otherwise, taking pictures and videos of him, and lifting him up (and getting kicked in the process)

After a few minutes of being amused, you finally told them to stop and the brothers couldn't really refuse

Lucifer has never been more grateful to you until now

The both of you spent the time at his bedroom, occasionally checking up on the others in case they do anything

As soon as he turned back to normal, he walked out of his bedroom and grabbed several ropes before storming to each of the brothers' rooms-

Beelzebub

He was definitely sulking once he found out his body wasn't as muscular as he wanted it to be

But he now had the mindset of Child Him so it's not like he really cared about what his appearance is

Child Beel's a hungry ball of sunshine

He holds your hand all the time, a habit he used to have when he was young, it doesn't matter if your hand is sweaty, he WILL not let go

For a child, he was still strong, no one can stop him from getting that Devil Popsicle

After 30 minutes of your wallet getting empty, you had taken him back home

Belphie was surprised to see a younger version of his twin but he was a natural at taking care of him

The sloth turned sentimental at the thought of being young again while sharing his cow pillow with his brother

"You think Solomon can do this spell to me so I don't have to do work?"

"I'm pretty sure Lucifer won't allow it..."

The other brothers doted on him until they found out he can steal food much more, he grabbed Mammon's whole plate under the table and ate it while he sat underneath (the second eldest let it slide because he was cute)

When Beel turned back to normal, he tried it again and got shouted at but he didn't let that stop him *munch munch*

Simeon

He was curious to see what would happen so he tagged along and by the time he saw the beam of light, it was too late

Luke gaped once he saw a young Simeon holding your hand and ushered him to borrow his clothes

Young Simeon....is a little mischievous shit

He runs around and sticks his tongue out at demons to piss them off

He did it to Lucifer and the demon didn't know how to respond

He acts like a true angel to you though and seeks your approval some of the time

"Did you see that, MC? I did good, right?"

"Of course!" You smiled and patted a blushing Simeon's head

A happy child Simeon has a look of true joy in his eyes whenever he's around you

You joked that Luke should be his playmate and Simeon looked like he wasn't opposed to it

Whenever he's not in a mischievous mood, he's usually just like his adult version and does whatever you told him to

He's back in no time, smiling and asking if you would want a kid
