On that particular "Nemo is the reincarnation of Abdel" note, I have to say the song "Woke up A Rebel" by Reuben and the Dark is pretty much his anthem:
"The blood will not dry
And time will not heal
I want to be free
But the blood will not dry
And the sun disappeared
Through the hole in the sky
Oh, they made me a shadow
And blackened my bones
But I will rise
I died like a saint
Was reborn a devil
I slept like a slave
And woke up a rebel
I am wild, I am lost
I am sick, I am damned
But I am holding redemption in the palm of my hand
So I tighten my fist
And sharpen my teeth
It's a promise I made
It's secret I keep
I am lookin' for trouble
And trouble I will find
You will get what is comin'
I'll take back what is mine
I'll set fire to this dream
And I will rise"

the chemistry in my brain is altered in unspeakable ways whenever i think about Sans.
JUST WHO EXACTLY IS THIS GUY
its so easy, almost too easy, not to take him seriously and its exactly why his character can often be, well, i wouldn't say overlooked, this guy's pretty popular, but his traits tend to be.... diluted?? simplified??? for lack of better words..?
like yeah, he likes ketchup. yeah, he's laid-back n "lazy". yeah, he's a punny guy. yeah, he goes above n beyond for his brother's happiness... but what else?
do we even know much about papyrus? that guy's whole deal deserves a whole separate post!
CAN WE PLEEAAASE RECALL HOW THIS PIECE OF LORE WAS CASUALLY (in true toby fox fashion) SENT TO OUR EMAILS ?? NEVER TO BE ELABORATED UPON EVER AGAIN
why'd sans have to pull a sock incident on us at a time like this </3
PAPYRUS DID NOT MEAN IT SO LITERALLY AND YOU KNOW THAT, SANS, YOU JUST WANTED TO BE A LITTLE SHIT!!!!!!
Tumblr media
their life before snowdin.. oh what i'd give to hear all about it...
this got me thinking, though.
we know sans likely has an affinity for quantum physics, temporal complexities and astronomy (though the latter is irrelevant to the point i'll be making)
he can teleport for God's sake why are we so unfazed by that
aaaanywho,
so like his Workshop. the one with the broken machine, yeah. look at what toby's once said abt it
Tumblr media
why would they (who i assume r alphys + sans ?) try so hard to fix it? it's not like its the CORE (the machine said to be the source of all power 4 the undergound)
what's so important about this rusty, clanky pile of scrap metal?
....
haha lol, remember this?
Tumblr media
remember this (x2)?
Tumblr media
there's an abstract them here, and its clear he's not talking abt papyrus, frisk or even the player if we were to try n reach so hard.
could it be he is refereing to those in the picture with him?
if so, they must really mean a lot to him
Tumblr media
so let's get this straight:
- we know the skelebros were NEW additions to snowdin
- we know they had an OLD life, the picture at the workshop further proving sans also had a social circle, one beyond frisk's recognition which totally strikes me as odd, given this child has been ambushed by almost all monsters at that point
- sans knows about timelines. sans messes with time and space. it's heavily hinted sans has worked in quantum physics (the book[s] found at his place) and he apparently also has some abandoned, broken machine in his workshop (one of which he's presumably tinkered with)
- as a lost soul (but also in geno), sans demonstrates his intense defeatism and resignation saying this like,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
.... is sans trying to go back somewhere? do the skelebros come from a different world? a grassy place? r the residents of said place related to the picture in any way? does sans miss them? were they family? friends? lovers?! whoooooooo!1!!1 when!!! where!!!!! what is going on, toby!!!! PLEASEHWHWUE
[inhale]
but you know what, this is fine. pssssh, we don't need any of these answered, haha! no waaay! because while the UT fandom's in up in flames about such matters, toby's probably out there drawing yet another sans x reigen art piece to dish out when we least expect it (please let it be on my biryhday please let it be on my birthd)

In your half-life AU, Floyd is very good at music, but he's very shy about it. And then you've mentioned that he'll eventually join the choir (?) or was it like a music club? 
Ayways, I've been wondering if you're planning on adding Velvet and Veneer to this? I kind of imagine them appearing maybe when Floyd's a teenager; they're probably the spoiled rich kids that have no manners.
Velvet definitely joined the choir for attention, Veneer obviously got forced into joining, so he's probably pressured to try his best but is too lazy to practice singing. He definitely tried suggesting practice and got rejected LMAO.
Haha!! Thank youuuuu!
Floyd's a bit shy on the subject because unlike in canon, he's had less exposure to music/singing/instruments and also his father is a jerk and says its stupid. However, once Floyd gets started, he takes to it like a moth to flame and he is GOOD at picking it up.
Okay so in my middle school, you had to join the choir or band. Or both. Floyd is going to join both. In my high school, you don't have to do either but there is a normal choir and then there is a thing called a swing choir (we called it Rocket Choir) where it is both singing and performance! With little dances and stuff. Nothing too crazy. When Floyd gets into HS, he's definitely going to join the swing choir. The choir director miiiiggghhhttt even let him feature in something when he's in middle school just cause he is just that good.
Please also note that this school is small so it's not weird for the middle school and high school choir director to be the same person. I'm not sure if it will or not.
Anywayyyyyyy... Velvet and Veneer. Entirely honest, haven't thought very far ahead but that's okay! Cause now I will! In canon, Floyd is an adult and the twins are teenagers. Here, they probably are not the same age but they will be in school together. They probably still have the aspirations of being famous singers, for some, strange, reason, considering they don’t sing. They don’t really fit into the small town thing so I’m not sure how it all occurs yet how they get involved in the school…
Unless they are in different schools… but I'm not sure about that either. Things are still a work in progress.
Don’t mind me thinking out loud here
And now I lost my train of thought. But absolutely; they'd end up being the spoiled rich kids with no manners which... if you have ever been in small town places... does not fly. So Velvet and kinda Veneer too, would probably be kinda obsessed with being popular. And who doesn't like a fabulous singer?
Anyways, when Floyd is in middle school, he ends up being really good and does some practice/featuring in the High School Choir; maybe the regular or the swing and he's a cute little shy preteen, people love him, they think he's an adorable little kiddo.
Insert Velvet and Veneer, somehow, someway, trying to use him for their own gain. I'm not sure the details on this quite yet.
Sorry, I thought I was gonna have more than I ended up having -.-

Do with this what you will. All I ask is that you make me laugh (as usual).
Tumblr media
AHHHH HAHA luce!! okay, the only thing i could think of is based off of this vine. so.... enjoy.
au: non!idol genre: crack words: 649 warnings: mention of drinking, hobi is a good cleaner, yoongi too, vmin are chaos demons, seokjin is in love, namjoon is a worried mother, and jungkook has fire. author's notes: this is unedited - i am lazy and i woke up at 5am this morning. please see this post for drabble requests!
The party is slowly quieting down. They’ve all had a bit too much to drink but they’re all doing their part to clean up so that the house isn’t a total mess when they wake up.
Hoseok is cleaning up plastic cups from around the pool. Yoongi is cleaning the kitchen while Taehyung and Jimin whip each other with tea towels they’ve rolled into weapons. Seokjin has gone to kiss his new girlfriend goodbye. Namjoon is folding the chairs back up and trying to stuff them into the ridiculously small bags that they come in (seriously how does anyone get these in the firs time? No, he doesn’t want to think about the first time he tried to put a condom on), and Jungkook is …
Where is Jungkook?
Namjoon has a folded canvas chair between his thighs, small tiny ass bag in hand when he realizes that Jungkook has gone missing. Which, normally wouldn’t be a concern except that Jungkook drank Jägermeister with Taehyung and Jimin and Jag makes Jungkook go a little … what’s the word? … bananas.
The opening of the bag only goes over one of the legs and Namjoon sighs, opening his legs and letting the chair fall to the ground with a hard thud. He looks around and sees the three in the kitchen window (Yoongi looking tired but ignoring the chaos that is happening behind him).
Namjoon watches Yoongi open his mouth and say something that Namjoon can’t hear because in usual Yoongi fashion he’s saying it under his breath, but he thinks he reads Yoongi’s lips to say something like “Yah! If I feel that towel on my skin, I’ll stab you.”
Namjoon chuckles despite himself and continues his search for Yoongi.
Jin rounds the corner of the house, hands in his pockets, and looking a little too happy with himself.
“You seen Jungkook?” he asks and Jin shakes his head.
“No, but I did just receive the kiss of my life. I think I’m going to marry that woman, Namjoon-ah.”
Namjoon smiles and turns away to see Hoseok holding a white trash bag which is already almost full. Fuck they went a little too hard tonight.
“Hobi! Have you seen -“
He stops as he sees a small figure crouched by the fire pit, metal poker in hand.
“Jungkook!” he calls (while also finishing his question to Hoseok).
Jungkook doesn’t look up.
“What’cha got there?”
He watches as Jungkook’s looks into the embers, the last remaining flame a little too weak to light it all up but enough to show the smirk that grows on Jungkook’s face.
Namjoon takes a few steps closer to the fire only to realize that Jungkook doesn’t have a metal poker but a stick. A wooden stick and he has stuck the end right into the flame. Both men (and he thinks Hoseok and Seokjin too) watch the stick’s end light up.
“What do you have, Jungkook?” Seokjin asks from behind Namjoon.
There’s a long silent pause before Jungkook’s eyes go wide and he holds up the stick, a little too close and a little too on fire for Namjoon’s liking.
“FIRE!”
There’s a rush past Namjoon and then suddenly Jungkook is on his feet, running with the fire stick in front of him, Seokjin chasing after him.
“Seokjin, NO!” Namjoon calls out. “Stop!”
Yoongi steps out of the house, towel in his hands, eyes on the ground as he hears shouting in front of him. He sighs, he had just escaped the kitchen because there was too much noise and now there’s more chaos?
He looks up and sees Jungkook holding a burning stick, Seokjin chasing after him in what Yoongi isn’t sure is shouts of joy or concern, and Namjoon standing still trying desperately to wait for a time when he can grab the stick out of Jungkook’s hand.
Yeah Yoongi thinks, I’m going home.

Part one
Billy breaks Y/N's heart by cheating with Karen, there acceptance soon fuels to anger and revenge upon meeting Eddie Munson.
Warnings: smut, angst, Eddie munson- spoilers? Teen Pregnancy, cheating, age gap, smoking/drugs
- I Gave the reader a name halfway through but can definetly be read as a insert still
(Other S4 Characters could appear )
Criticism appreciated!!
In this universe Billy is alive, and continues into the plot of season 4.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I didn't think it would go this far, but after one whack of that wooden bat with its steel teeth of nails there was no going back. A large Crack spread through the windshield of the retro blue car. One, two, three and the numbers went higher. No door, no bird, no strangers walked by. Just Y/n in the crisp sunrise of the motels parking lot a cigarette just snuffed below her boot.
"Fucking asshat," she muttered into the silence the brease barely forming with her. The world wasn't awake yet. No one had heard the scandalous rumor of Billy Hargrove: the keg King and the milf. "Details for 5.95".
Y/n rolled her eyes at the thought, a beasous wave spreading. She slammed the bat the last whack setting off the cars alarm, she booked it as hotel room lights flicked on in sync across the lot. She swiftly buckled her helmet and her bike zoomed off into the town pulling up to the high school parking lot, books in stow. No one was there, or so she thought.
Parking and heading to the bleachers and sitting upon a spot in the middle out looking the dew covered empty green feel and it's muddy pitchers mound, the mud stained and cracked against the dugout matching the laziness in the rusted chain that lined it.
Hawkins had given up since the mall accident, and frankly so did Y/N. And Nancy, and Johnathan and Billy. They all did the rusted fence, a metaphor to be digested as one may see fit.
A scream echoed as pale ringed hand grabbed the ankle of Y/N. A laugh bellowed from below the bleachers a lighter flicked, the flame igniting a tightly rolled blunt giving Y/N a view.
It was the Munson boy. The one everyone accused of murder last year, Billy's biggest rival, for what reason I'll never know. Then again Billy had said thar about Steve and well..
"M'lady, what quest leads you to a wet field on ye early morning?" Dark eyes of the boy meeting Y/N as he spoke behind the blunt. The paper wobbling as he spoke the smoke blowing in the breeze, stinging y/N's nose.
"It's Mikayla. And I can't tell you how much I'm not your lady." She shrugged and shifted looking away instead to the train thar passed up far in the distance. She hopped Robin wouldn't be skipping today, hopefully Steve would actually bring the two of them on time. God, wouldn't that be a miracle.
"It's eddie, you don't remember me do you?"
"I recognize you. But I'm not afraid of you, so if your looking for a scare just beat it alright?"
"Aw your so cute when your mad, that's what I like about you, haha man-"
"Shut up and kiss me."
"Huh?" He removed the weed from his mouth.
"You heard me, shut up and kiss me?"
"But, you-you and hargrove?"
"Would that have really stopped you, Munson?" Kayla cocked her eyebrow at the attractive alternative drug dealer.
"Nope," he reached his right hand behind Mikaylas ear, brushing her check with his thumb, the metal and silver of his wings blending with her skin. Likely leaving smudges.
The two blissfully continued lips and teeth nipping and fighting at one another alone as the blunt smoked out as it snuffed in a puddle of water left in the bleachers.
One would assume this meant nothing, rebound, Mikaylas just getting over Billy? Right? Eddie got it, Kayla got it, but Billy?
He was not going to get it....

I just think it's wild how Three Hopes really did its best work on the Blue Lions and improved some major aspects of them tenfold (such as not making them single trait tropes like tsundere whine whine Felix and can't-say-anything-but-stupid-flirty-shit Sylvain). They fixed every relationship (such as Annette and Gilbert, the Gautier family, Felix and Rodrigue, Dedue and Ingrid, etc) and all of the characters feel like real people and not just lazy tropes with little to no development.
Meanwhile the Deer and and Eagles are mostly worse versions of themselves (Ferdinand is just a regular ol' Edelgard simp and every aspect of his Houses character was completely wiped regarding his views and her; Dorothea is ten times worse and is nothing but an Edelgard simp who would literally canonically rather die than not be by her waifu's side; Caspar will fight and for Thales bc uwu Fr The Empire except that the Empire he loved and fought for is dead and has been for half a year by that point; Claude forget it we all know that story; Raphael is utterly brainless and doesn't have a kind bone in his body when it comes to invading other lands and just wants to punch innocent people who did nothing to him bc it makes him feel stronkers, etc).
Some non-BL characters got improvements (Leonie isn't 100% Jeralt centric, Hilda has more to her character than being lazy and whiny, Hubert is shown not to be a 110% callous jerk outside of anyone except Edelgard and has an easier time forming relationships with other Eagles), but overall most of them were made much worse.
Even non direct BL, GD and BE characters are included in this. Nader is way worse and is a happy violent pillager, Judith is just kinda mean for ??? some reason, Sothis is a crazed bitch for ??? some reason (apparently waking up a year earlier makes you bitchier if you're a goddess??? man I thought it was 220 years earlier haha Tellius joke inserted), and meanwhile Miklan gets a redemption arc enough to the point where his father of all people wants to avenge him.
Highkey feels like they poured all their effort into the Lions and let everything else go up in flames like a dumpster fire while for some reason (but also We Know Why) marketing the game with as much Edelwaifu as they could and making sure she's happy pappy and nobody can dare harm her because that would be an outrage. She can, of course, as ever, harm as much as she wants and it's Okay and Just and The Right Thing To Do.
Hopes really is a wild ride.

Ramblings for Qiumibu #2
I might as well begin my second rambling post by linking it to the previous one haha
The next post can be found here.
Time for the next loser to get revealed and talk about as I ramble on about Qiumibu: Prince Naso
Tumblr media
Goodness me, this drawing is super old. You can tell from how yellowed the paper background is, but this is also the "latest" drawing of him that I have done in the past couple of years. Such is the curse of having so many characters, hahaha
Anyways, this lad is the Heir to the kingdom of Eulia, found in the southern section of Qiumibu. I imagined the place to be dominantly fire based, cause the Vermillion Bird of the Four Symbols of China is commonly associated with flames. They're not the same as the phoenix from the Middle East, but they are so similar that even I have decided to be lazy and just combine the two ideas into Prince Naso.
Phoenixes in Qiumibu are strange. I've come up with a setting rule that only two Phoenixes can exist simultaneously in this setting (excluding Phoenixes from other peoples' settings). I guess it's my attempt to make Phoenixes feel like a unique species in my setting without looking as if I was condescending towards other peoples' Phoenix characters. I like my Phoenix characters to feel unique, so that's my solution to ensuring that there aren't thousands of almost unkillable birds running amok in this setting.
That said, he and his mother (the other Phoenix in Qiumibu) have the ability to return from the dead. Initially, I thought that they can only do so through their ashes, which appears after a fatal blow has been dealt to them. But you know what? Screw those rules, they are reborn immediately after death, and they can choose where they are reborn. It's not an explosive event. Just a little flame that can't burn stuff, and soon the whole physique and form of the Phoenix prior to their death is made anew. Naso is notorious for doing this, because he can't help himself by throwing his body into the thick of things without hesitation.
So is there a way to actually kill off a Phoenix in Qiumibu for good? There is, but it requires one of the Phoenixes to willingly end themselves. I am not sure how that works, but it's something along the lines of "I have enough of this life. Farewell, for I will not remember everything when I am reborn as a fledgling phoenix." It's a permanent decision, and if there was only one Phoenix remaining, they can't willingly off themselves and leave no Phoenixes around. Though that does create an interesting story prompt... I am going to have to take notes for this haha.
Anyways, the birth of a Phoenix is still dictated by having parents. I kinda want to make it so it only takes two to make a Phoenix as their firstborn after the other had willingly sacrificed themselves to let a new Phoenix be made. It sounds better than just "heterosexual couple make babi" couple. Naso's parents were like that. His father wasn't a Phoenix, but he was still his father. He's dead now, and Naso makes it his personal mission to torment the one who did it. I'll talk about this individual in the next post of this series.
So, what does Naso actually do? All I'd talked about was how Phoenixes worked in Qiumibu. So now we focus on his title: the Heir of Eulia. Which means he's next in line after his dear mother Empress decides to kick the bucket permanently.
He's got his usual duty as Heir of the kingdom: Get up to date with the politics (oh yay), check on the local populace, listen to their concerns and try his best aid them, and hone his skills as a metalsmith.
The Kingdom of Eulia prides itself with its metal works and large furnaces. I hadn't decided how many furnaces are present, but they're proud of their skill with metal and to create pieces of art with them. Aspiring metalsmiths would come here to hone their craft then return to their kingdom with the skills they have learned, but not everyone wants to become a metalsmith when other occupations and roles exist in this setting. I just hadn't thought about what other occupations and roles exist, other than the essential ones like the military, medicine, food and construction.
But what about Prince Naso himself? Well, he's a Prince, and the Heir to Eulia. He has a relaxed approach to life, because he knows he can't die and he can try many things out without pissing off too many people simultaneously. You can't win them all the time.
Speaking of pissing off people, I found another piece that I got wrong. I have to redo the map and this piece, but this is also a first look at the other Heir and Heiresses in Qiumibu.
Tumblr media
Prince Naso isn't on good terms with the Heiress of the West (Princess Halene) and the Heir of the (supposed) North (Prince Tore). But he wants to have fun with them. He genuinely believes that it's possible to get to know them better, but uh, they don't like for reasons related to:
Accidentally damaging the ecosystem that belongs to Halene.
Having offed Tore's father in front of him as payback offing Naso's father.
And this guy wonders why he's not on good terms with them. But the two can't do anything about him, given his ability to return to life. They have killed him a few times, but Naso holds no grudge against them.
As for the Heiress of the (supposed) East at the top? That's Princess Spyri, and she's on good terms with Naso because earth and metal need flames to solidify and be malleable, so she holds no ill will towards him. Their kingdoms have helped each other in advancements and aid over the years of their reign.
I make ruling kingdoms sound so easier than it actually is. I'll worry about it when I actually rule a place, which would never happen haha. Alright, end of this rambling.

i shudder before the bee....
Analysis Conclusive! Asteroid composed entirely of unique anti-ghost element, Ecto-ranium! Negative effects of which can only be felt by ghosts.
It would be most effective in making anti-ghost weapons and to ease Masters' takeover of the Ghost Zone.
And I shall be the one to tell him the good news!
No, I shall!
I shall!
Your resolution is much too low and your bandwidth is far too large!
Why, you HOLOGRAPHIC-!
What a glorious morning. Defeating Frostbite and pilfering the all powerful Infi-map. If this keeps up, I should be ruling the galaxy by lunch.
Kitchen's closed, Plasmius! Give us back the map! 
Ahh!
Let's rock!
3... 2... 1... Punch it!
I know you're a lost guy, Vlad, but no map is going to help you find your way. You need therapy for that.
Uhh...
Seriously, dude. 
Therapy.
The fusion reactor! If the flames reach it, it will explode!
Taking my map, destroying my satellite, mocking my mental health, it's time I finally finished of Danny Phantom once and for all.
Ah, home sweet home. Nothing like good ol' solid terra firma.
I thought you liked being in space, Sam. All that infinite darkness everywhere.
Yeah. Well, I like my darkness with a little more oxygen and a lot less asteroids.
Still, it's cool we were able to help out Frostbite. I bet he'll be glad to get his map back.
Yeah. We'll return it to him as soon as we can. But right now, though, I'm with Sam. It's good to be back to where things are normal. 
Attention, Amity Park! The Fentons are on patrol! Rest assured the streets are safe! Uh, city water supply A-Okay.
Yep, normal.
Nothing like a lazy day of shopping, lattes, and terrorizing minimum-wage workers. Boo. 
I'm going ghost! 
Well, look on the bright side. At least I'm not downloading them illegally. 
Next register, Cyber-jerk!
Behold, Ghost child!
The perfect combination of technology, past AND present! 
The Car-Puter!
"It will drive you... to your DOOM!" 
Great. My first car accident and I'm not even driving yet!
Hey! Tucker! Sam!
Huh?
Yo, I got it Vid!
Awesome Thrash! Take it Download.
Downloaded. Shaw.
Uh, who are those guys?
I don't know, but those are the coolest jumpsuits I've ever seen! Uh, except yours, of course. Black is very slimming.
Adolescents! How dare you? And another thing, the high tech look is my bit! 
Ghost guy gone, area's safe. Have a righteous day.
Masters' Blasters stop disasters!
Greetings, citizens. I hope you've enjoyed this presentation of Amity Park's newest teen ghost fighting team, Masters' Blasters.
Masters' Blasters?
As mayor, I provided city funding for this top notch troop. Equipped with the latest teen technology, they're going to stop ghosts and succeed where Danny Phantom has so obviously failed.
Teen ghost fighters?
Teen technology?
Where Danny Phantom has so obviously failed?
My plan is very simple, out with the old and in with the new! And the old should give up now now if he knows what's good for him.
If Vlad's funding them, then they're definitely up to something.
Hmm, they can't fight ghosts if there are no ghosts to fight, right?
Uh, right.
So you just fight ghosts like crazy.
Yeah, remind everyone in this town how there's no better ghost fighter than Danny Phantom.
You're right. I'll just show 'em who's boss around here. Buckle up guys, Operation: Danny Phantom Rocks is about to begin!
Hmm, 3 news photos of you in your underwear, 9 more and you can have your own calendar.
This is serious, Tucker. As far as this town is concerned, Vlad's goons have totally replaced Danny Phantom.
Did you say Danny Phantom? He's wonderful!
He's my hero!
But he's yesterday's news! Masters' Blasters gave us cool stuff!
Masters' Blasters stop disasters!
Cheer up, Danny. All you have to do is make everyone see you for the hero we know you are.
You can do it, dude. And try a cool slogan. "Danny Phantom stops..." uh, nothing rhymes with "Phantom"
Keep working on that. I'm goin' ghost!
Haha. Check this out, everyone. There's not a ghost anywhere that can stand up to Danny Phantom, the original teen ghost fighter!
Yes, as you can see, Amity Park is in much cooler, safer hands, thanks to Masters' Blasters.
I always knew that Phantom kid was a menace! Not only did he nearly kill Sam and Tucker, but he destroyed a perfectly good parade balloon and that's just plain un-American.
But, Dad. It was just an accident. I for one am glad there's someone out there protecting us. 
Me, too. And they're called Masters' Blasters. Vladdie's team has style, guts, acne, and they're humans, plus they gave my this zippity-keen-o poster.
Why are your folks messing with the Fenton Portal?
Dad's breaking it down to stage one so he can update the software. He says this way, He'll be able to catch ghosts and download songs faster.
Isn't science awesome?
It kinda looks the same way it did when you first got your ghost powers, Danny.
Can we stop talking about my powers, please? They're causing me nothing but problems, lately. I'm starting to think that maybe we'd all be better off without 'em.
Okay, that's enough for today. Come on Maddie, I'll let you rub my feet and remember, I have bunions.
Thank goodness I'm wearing gloves.
This thing gave me my powers. I wonder if it could--
Danny, what are you thinking?
Name one good reason why I should keep my powers.
You're the target of hundreds of evil ghosts. Oh, wait, that's a bad one. I'll go back to rhyming "Phantom".
Danny, think of all the good you've done and our doing. If you took your powers away now--
Hey, Masters' Blasters, remember me? The old orange guy, I --
Jack and Madeline Fenton, our readings indicate an ectoplasmic entity on the premises.
By order of the mayor, you're both under arrest for harboring a ghost.
That does it! I'm goin' ghost! Can't catch ghosts anymore, almost hurt my friends.
Now my parents are arrested because of me?
Danny, stop. This isn't the way.
You're a hero, Danny. We can talk about this.
Don't do it, dude. We'll find something that rhymes with "Phantom".
Sorry, guys.
Danny, can you hear me? How do you feel?
Human.
Danny. Danny, can you hear me?
Did he just do what I think he just did?
You mean step back into the Fenton Portal, remove his ghost powers and revert his DNA profile back to that of a normal human?
I was gonna say go un-ghost, but that works too.
Greetings, dudes. We're here to, like, police the premises for signs of any spectral activity.
Just go about your business. We're not even here.
There you go, dude. And remember, your mayor, who watches constantly, loves you.
Wha- what happened? Did it work?
You didn't register on the blasters' scanners.
So that means... I'm goin ghost! I said goin' ghost. Haha. It worked! I don't have my ghost powers anymore! I'm normal again. Isn't that awesome?
Yeah.
Great
Thrilling
Oh, come on, you guys, don't you realize what this means?
Yeah, that you're just an average, every day not special human again.
Oh, come on, Sam. think of how great this is gonna be. I won't have to fight ghosts anymore. Now we can all just be normal teenagers and hang out as much as we want.
Yeah. Normal rocks.
Hey, if it's what you wanted, then I'm glad for you, man.
It is, thanks.
Looks like we'll have to find other things to occupy our time, huh?
Looks like.
There's this new Masters' Blasters video game we can play. It's cool. You hunt ghosts. See ya.
I really can't believe you did that. It feels like a lost a good friend. Someone I was just starting to get to know.
Why is everyone but me bummed about this? Danny Phantom's not needed anymore. From now on, Danny Fenton is just a nice, normal kid from a nice, normal family. Now let's go get Mom & Dad out of jail.
Thanks for getting us out of jail, kids. I knew there must have been some sort of mistake.
I was never worried. I was this close to tunneling us out of there with my trusty ice cream spoon, but then they served ice cream, so, well... you know.
By the way Danny, I think it's cute what you've done to your hair.
Yeah. Kinda reminds me of the band I was in back in the 80s. The Skunk Punks.
The Skunk Punks Stink?
Yeah we walked right into that one.
Um, you guys head on home. It's such a nice normal day that I thought I'd kinda walk around and be, you know, normal.
Alright. Just be normally careful. Bye bye.
Don't worry. I plan on being careful for a long, long time.
And it's been another busy day for Mayor Master's Masters' Blasters, who are now charging a small fee to cover their growing expenses.
Yes, quality ghost fighting is getting very expensive these days. Time, equipment, storage, it all adds up. And since that cowardly Danny Phantom disappeared, not that he ever was helpful, there's no one else in town to assist us. Oh there are certainly a few crack pots out there, who think they have what it takes, but they only get in our way. It seems that when it comes to fighting ghosts we're the only game in town. And I do so love games. I-I mean...have a nice day.
Ah this is the life. Just sitting around, not fighting ghosts with my totally ordinary pals. Could you pass me a corndog? Sam. Wait! There's no reason to get mad the corndogs are made of tofu.
I'm not mad about corndogs. You're not you anymore. You're just a normal kid. And a selfish one at that.
How am I selfish? Because I don't want to endanger the people I care about the most?
Danny don't you get it? Your powers gave you a chance to change things. A chance that no one else had, and I was thrilled to help you. But now you're just one of the crowd again.
What's wrong with that?
Everything. You got to fight ghosts after school while other kids fought acne. And you don't seem to care what you gave up.
I care. I just care about you and my family more.
When you had your powers I knew that this town was protected from evil. But now, who knows where we're headed. I'll always be your friend Danny, and I'll always be there for you. But I can't live life just sitting on the sidelines. I'm surprised you think you can.
Blech. Tofu.
How dare they serve veggie burgers today?! And how dare you students eat them?!
Aaah! Somebody help!
No more sitting on the sidelines. Hang on Dash-
Masters' Blasters stop disasters.
Chill dude.
What's with you, Fenton? Who do you think you are? Danny Phantom. You guys are the coolest ghost fighters ever.
Thanks dude. That'll be three hundred bucks.
I'm going ghost! 
There, there dear. So the ghost portal exploded. It's not the end of the world. You can always make another one.
I don't want another one. That portal and I have been through a lot together. And all because I wanted to download music faster. Oh curse me. And my impatience.
We interrupt this program to bring you breaking news from the universal observatory.
Earlier today our stellar readings indicated that a massive asteroid is hurdling across the solar system.
Where its trajectory will send it crashing directly into the Earth.
If immediate action is not taken our entire planet will be completely destroyed.
We estimate we have one week before impact.
The fate of the human race is at stake. One week. Use it wisely.
News of the approaching asteroid, which some are now calling the Disasteroid, circulates around the globe. Countries are combining their greatest technologies to stop the oncoming threat. Sadly it appear that our best may not be good enough. And speaking of not good enough, let's go live to Fenton Works.
Thanks, Shelly. I'm here ringside where a privately funded mission to stop the Disasteroid is underway.
I can't believe I'm just sitting here at a computer console when I should be out there stopping this. And I really can't believe we have to do this with him.
We would have never been able to get this mission up and running so fast if he hadn't paid for everything. So at least until the world is saved, chill.
How's it going young man?
Uh. My dad Jack Fenton is piloting our new--
--My new.
Fenton Rocket. And is on his way to destroy the asteroid.
He looks very serious about his mission.
You'd be serious too if you had to eat this freaky astronaut food. Freeze dried yam smelt surprise. What the heck is that?
With me now is Amity Park's mayor Vlad Masters. I understand you've sent in your own team of experts.
Oh yes. Seeing as the world is in jeopardy, I felt that the Masters' Blasters presence was an absolute necessity. Plus, think of how well their action figures will sell.
Dad. Mission status?
Reading seismic drill charges. Now!
Detonation in three. Two. One.
Everyone cheers.
Ha! I knew we could do it. There isn't a rock anywhere that could outsmart Jack Fenton.
That's the Disasteroid. You had us blow up the wrong one, you idiot.
But I-I couldn't have. Vladdie punches in the asteroid's coordinates for me. Yam smelt surprise?
That…that was our last chance.
Oops. Looks like I set the wrong coordinates. Silly me. You know how bad I can be with computers. Looks like your father has failed once again, and when I time needs a hero the most.
At least he tried, Vlad. What have you done except send others to do your work for you?
And where are you Danny Phantom? It looks like my plan to shame you into hiding was even more effective than I could have hoped.
I'm just getting word that scientists now know that the Disasteroid originated from the rings of Saturn two weeks ago.
Saturn? Your satellite exploded. That's what moved the asteroid. You're the one who caused this catastrophe.
Defeating you was just the first act of my little show. Get ready for act two.
Tell me again, why are we here?
Because we've got to see what Vlad's up to. He says he's got new that will impact the entire world.
Citizens of the Earth. I have news that will impact the entire world. Though every attempt at destroying the Disasteroid has failed, I come to you today offering an alternative solution. One I think you will find most surprising.
No!
I did not see that coming.
Yes, though I use my human half to walk among you, it is obvious that I am a far superior creature.
Who are you?
Though the world has come to know me as Vlad Masters billionaire mayor of Amity Park, I prefer you call me by my chosen slightly more evil name…Vlad Plasmius.
Vlad's a ghost?
I have a proposition to make. The nations of the world must agree unanimously to pay be five hundred billion dollars and make me absolute ruler. In return I shall use my ghost powers
To destroy the Disasteroid?
No. To turn it intangible.
Evil. But ingenious. That way it'll just pass harmlessly through the Earth.
It's your choice world. Be destroyed or me saved. Oh, and ruled by me. I eagerly await your decision.
What happens now?
Looks like we either change the name of the Earth to Vladsylvania, or I somehow figure a way out of this mess.
And that concludes act two of what I like to call one nation under Vlad. On to the finale.
How could you hold the world hostage like that Vladdie? And after the good fortune you've had in your life.
Good fortune?! You infect me with ghost DNA then steal the love of my life and you call that good fortune?
I infected you? You mean…
Yes fool. It was your bumbling that made me what I am today. But, I suppose I should be saying thank you. For without you I wouldn't be moments away from becoming ruler of the Earth.
I never meant to hurt you. What happened was an accident. I'm your friend, Vladdie. I've always been your friend. I even voted for you!
I'll remember that when I steal Maddie from you and make her my queen.
Asteroid contact in five hundred meters oh future ruler of the Earth.
Ah. No. No. No! What is the meaning of this?
Asteroid composed entirely of the unique anti-ghost element ecto-ranium. Ecto-ranium. Ecto-ranium.
Ecto-ranium? Then I can never touch it. No ghost can. That means…the Earth is doomed. And even if it wasn't I could never go back. I've revealed…my true self. I'll be forever hunted. Jack, you have to help me. You wouldn't turn your back on an old friend, would you?
An old friend? No. You? Yes.
Jack!
What are we gonna do?
What if we don't make the asteroid intangible?
Then it would obliterate the Earth
Not if we made the Earth intangible.
The whole Earth? Intangible? Are you kidding?
Yeah you'd need like a bazillion ghosts to do that.
Behold…the addresses of a bazillion ghosts.
Now that's the Danny I know. So much for sitting on the sidelines, huh?
But how are we going to get into the Ghost Zone? Your portal is ruined and we're never gonna get near Vlad's place now that everyone knows who he really is.
I've got it covered. Come on. The Infi-map can lead us into any entrance into the Ghost Zone anywhere on the Earth. And according to the map one's about to open right here.
Now I know how my chili fries feel.
I-I don't believe--
Believe it Jazz. Welcome to the Ghost Zone. Sort of a Ghosts R' Us.
But all the shelves are empty. Where the heck is everybody?
What's going on?
Foolish of you to come here in your human form ghost child. Seeking refuge in the Ghost Zone like all the others?
What others?
All these ghosts! They returned here because you humans put your world in danger. Now the Ghost Zone is bursting at the seams.
But it's the flip side of our world. If the Earth gets destroyed, the Ghost Zone goes, too.
You guys get into the escape pod.
But Danny…
Activate cloaking.
It's not enough you destroy your own world, now you have to destroy ours, too?
Wait. You don't under--
Fire!
You just made a big mistake. Well gang, there's good news and bad news. Good news my powers are back. Bad news…my powers are back!
Danny! It's you! Well, it was always you, but…
I know what you mean Sam. Thanks.
Those ghosts are going to come back and something tells me they're not gonna be too happy about helping us.
You're right. We better get out of here until we've got this thing figured out.
If we went into the billboard's mouth I don't wanna know where we're coming out.
Danny Phantom is back. After a strange absence the teen ghost fighter has returned with a message for the world.
Uh, hello there. I have a plan that could save us all from the asteroid. And this one is absolutely free. How great is that?
If ghosts can't touch the asteroid, then how are you gonna stop it?
Because we're not gonna turn the asteroid intangible, we're gonna turn the Earth intangible.
Ahem. Ladies, gentlemen, various nations and stuff. My name is Tucker Foley and I…am a Techno Geek.
Hi Tucker!
Dudes. The new plan is very simple. With a strong enough ghostly power source and a big enough transfer device, we can send the ghost intangibility across the entire planet. This way the Disasteroid will pass harmlessly through.
That's the plan. Who's with us?
They never put that much effort into their school work.
Tucker Foley will lead the construction team in building the transfer device while Jack and Maddie Fenton's team will spread the transfer cables across the globe. If we all come together, not as separate nations but as one world, we can do this.
Not bad, huh? Now all we need is a massive ghost power source. You sure you don't want us to go with you?
I'm sure. I can move faster on my own. By the way, where do mom and dad think Danny Fenton is right now anyway.
With them. I redressed the Tuckbot 9000 to look and act like you. They'll never know the difference.
Nothing like saving the world with your old man, eh Danny?
Comment does not compute.
Your voice is changing already? Man they grow up so fast.
Gotta go. According to the map a portal is gonna open up over the pole any minute now.
See ya back here soon little brother. And thanks.
It's the ring you were gonna give Valerie. You asked me to hold it, remember? Something tells me it was really meant for me. Take it with you, but promise to bring it back. If you promise, then…then I know I'll see you again.
I-if we make it through this.
When we make it through this.
Right. When we make it through this. I have a few things I need to talk to you about.
I think I'd be willing to listen. And no matter how this thing ends, this whole ride we've been on together, I wouldn't change it for the world. Not one bit.
Me neither. I--. Wow. Remind me to save the world more often.
Go.
Right on cue. Atomic batteries to power. Turbines to speed. One ghost power source coming up. Okay. One down. Ninety six bazillion to go. Awesome! I think this is gonna work.
Auto eject.
What?
We warned you once, ghost brat.
Wait let me explain. Our worlds are linked. If mine goes yours goes, too. I have a plan. Look, I know you hate my world and wouldn't lift a finger to help it, but I thought you might care about saving your own.
He's coming back!
Danny. No.
He…he can't be.
It's coming!
Listen, I just want you all to know that…I love you. And I'm so proud of each and every one of you for trying your best.
We love you too, dad.
At least we're all together.
I…oh mom. There's something you need to know.
A robot? Where's Danny? Jazz where's your brother? Jack, where's Danny?
Look! The portal!
I still can't believe you guys agreed to help me. Looks like there is a heart under all cyber armor.
Don't get too sentimental. We're not here to save you, we're here to save us.
Let's just get this party started. Tucker. How. Much. Longer?
Now!
Where's the asteroid?
Phew.
Awesome.
Nice job, little brother. Or should I say…hero.
I don't know what to say other than, thanks Skulker.
Don't get too mushy on us, ghost child. Remember, I'll never stop hunting you. And now that you've saved your world, you're a much more valuable prize.
Nice job, Danny. Or should we say, Danny...
What? Uh. Sorry citizens, but I have no idea what you're talking about.
Isn't there something you wanna tell us?
It's okay, Danny. They know.
Citizens of Amity Park and of the world. As the youngest mayor in Amity Park history, it's my great honor to present this commemorative statue honoring the hero who bravely saved us all, Danny Phantom. An exact duplicate of this statue stands proudly in the capital of every nation of the world. And each will stand for as long as we have our world, because thanks to Danny Phantom, we still have one.
I still wonder how Danny was able to fool us for so long.
Good question, but I gotta admit, he was good. After all, it's nearly impossible to fool me. Isn't that right, Danny?
Affirmative, father.
That's my boy.
Where the heck are Danny and Sam?
I don't know. He said he had some unfinished business to attend to.
I can't believe you didn't want to attend your own ceremony.
Eh, you know me. I kinda like sitting on the sidelines sometimes.
And your folks are cool with knowing your secret identity?
Yeah. The time for secrets is over. The world is safe, time for new beginnings. My dad says he even wants me to team up with him now. Says I can be his sidekick.
You're a big star now. Probably the biggest in the world.
Yeah. It's weird, huh?
You'll probably get pretty busy.
What else is new?
And I probably won't see much of you anymore.
Oh, I wouldn't count on that. Sam, I could never have done any of this without you. And I don't care what's coming next I just hope that whatever it is, you're there to share it with me.
I will be. I just have to warn you, I'm no push over you know. I still have my own way of doing things.
That's what I'm counting on.
Actually, being a free roaming space nomad isn't half bad. At least it's quiet and I--
What do you say, wanna go for a ride? See where the future takes us?
Why not? Cool statue. Personally I would have made it out of recycled materials but, you know, that's just me.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT MEME repost. do not reblog.
Tumblr media
FULL NAME:  Halia Vasilyevna Markova (aliases: Halia Marker or Marshall) GENDER & SEXUALITY: Cis female || Demi-romantic demisexual ETHNICITY & SPECIES: Russian-Filipino American, Siberian decent. || Immortal BIRTHPLACE & BIRTHDATE: Brooklyn, New York, September 21, 1901
GUILTY PLEASURES: Walking around her lodgings in her undergarments while drinking whisky and smoking giant cigars.
PHOBIAS: Drowning, open water, abandonment
WHAT THEY WOULD BE INFAMOUS FOR: If it weren’t for history’s nack for focusing almost exclusively on men and Leon Reid's connections, Halia would be in the books for crimes of arson, murder, and bootlegging. If her past and her immortality were not something to be covered up, she would have worked her way up in the music business and had been noted among other colored singers through the jazz age.
WHAT HAVE THEY/WOULD THEY HAVE GOTTEN ARRESTED FOR: If it hadn’t been for her gang-mates, the neighborhood boys through her youth cast out by racist American views, our girl would be arrested for: several accounts of arson, breaking and entering, theft,  murder accomplished through organized crime, the production, trafficking and selling of illicit goods (alcohol).
CHARACTER YOU SHIP THEM WITH: Halia was once affianced to a young man named Henry O'Ryan, but a few months after he came home from the war their relationship ended. She has many friendships but I haven’t really had a chance to have her break past friendship barriers. She loses confidence in herself when faced with romantic intent, so haha.
CHARACTER MOST LIKELY TO MURDER THEM: Florian in the WWII thread probably- he’s got the the best chance.
FAVOURITE BOOK GENRE: Detective, mystery fiction
LEAST FAVOURITE BOOK CLICHÉ: “And the lived happily ever after…”, lazy writing in her opinion. 
TALENTS OR POWERS: Halia can proudly flaunt her singing voice, but is much more shy about her passions for painting, or baking. The latter two talents are so time consuming that she can never find a chance to indulge or practice. She also has a talent for playing the violin, but because of old memories of her mother and father, she only plays for herself || When it comes to powers Halia has the ability to manipulate heat, though she cannot make fire out of nothing. She is immune to any form of heat and can heal when her wounds are exposed to flames. Unbeknownst to her, however, death through drowning would make her demise permanent. 
WHY SOMEONE MIGHT LOVE THEM: Her sense of humor and loyalty make her kinda cute. She’s very patient and is the type of person to drag you back home to be tucked in bed, or sit by the toilet with you if you got drunk out of your wits. She isn't the most confident flirt, so if she starts to flirt and it is reciprocated she will get very flustered. 
WHY SOMEONE MIGHT HATE THEM: She is a very good liar and she lives a life held up by many webs of lies. Halia does not take joy out of it, but unless you already know about her age, powers, or past don’t expect the truth until you’ve earned it.
HOW THEY CHANGE: After living through war after war and losing loved ones repeatedly Halia becomes better at letting go and living out of other people's shadow. After Leon Reid's death in 1929, after the stock market crash, she learns not to believe in the sunken cost fallacy (i.e. just because someone has been in your life forever, doesn't mean you should continue with toxic relationships of any sort). She eventually learns how to make friends genuinely without trauma bonding, or becoming co-dependent.
WHY YOU LOVE THEM: She’s honestly a badass grandma stuck in the body of a 20-something year old. She’d be the ultimate hipster lol

rating 'fantasies' songs by their tlt vibes
recently i got really into this album and ive been listening to it nonstop and i got the urge to make this post so behold.
Help I'm Alive
we open with a BANGER. the whole heart motif beauty of existence thing is very tlt in general but "if we're still alive my regrets are few/if my life is mine what shouldnt i do" feels like it could be ntn cam+pal perhaps. 6/10 for general vibes not really going anywhere specific tho.
Sick Muse
i could see this as a convo between gideon and harrow. "pull your little arrows out an let me live my life" she WOULD say that about love... ily harrowhark necro'mancer nonagesimus lyctorway keep sticking your middle finger up at preps. but the main event is "all the blondes are fantasies/we looked at them eleven ways/you said look at me then looked away" like i dont even need to explain this one. YOU SAID LOOK AT ME THEN LOOKED AWAY the orpheus and eurydice the betrayal the hurt why wont you eat me please please consume me why are you saving me sorry one sec. ill shut up about greek myths now. 7.5/10 that one lyric saved it for me
Satellite Mind
this song is so strange and offputting it has to be about our favourite little bone nun <3 its givin htn harrow "i can feel you most when im alone" um the body the body the body "flashback of a feeling/sixth sense of a calling" its the love! that they couldnt take away!! 6/10 because i think that the dreamy freaky what the fuck is happening are suuuuper htn however the actual lyrics arent super close
Gold Guns Girls
i want this song to be about ianthe tridentarius soooooo bad... i want it to be about our favourite perpetually thirdweeling failgirl so much... like ive never wanted anything else ever oh my GOD... "i remember when you were gambling to win/everybody else said better luck next time" underestimated at canaan house anyone? anyone at all? no takers?? no??? 3/10 because despite my deepest wishes this is just a good song thats not about gay catholic homestuck 😔
Gimme Sympathy
slightly ironic gtn griddlehawk at its finest. "get hot/get too close to the flames" oops! now ur her cavalier "wild open space" gideon-gettin-shocked-by-days-on-earth-emotional.png "talk like an open book" not with that vow of silence. idiot. "sign me up!" shes not signed up haha "ill remember someday all the chances we took" not after the lobotomy u wont lol "we're so close to something better left unknown" cough cough LYCTORHOOD. 9/10 manifesting kiriona giving harrow sympathy after all of this is gone in alecto
Collect Call
hiii ntn fans i prommy i didn’t forget abt u! this one goes out to the psychosexual mess of role playing and bad meals enjoyers <3 "i know it's a lie i want it to be true/the rest of the rot is riding on you" oh boy like i said psychosexual mess... pyrra dve my beloved "wishing you could KEEP! ME! CLOSER! IM A LAZY! DANCER! WHEN YOU MOVE! I! MOVE WITH YOUOOOOOOOOO" oh lord nona placing her hand on cam's shoulder like palamedes would. oh lord being so close in one body and yet a second apart. 8/10 should be higher but i started Having Feelings about nona's death again and couldnt finish listening to the song
Front Row
this is a john song if I’ve ever heard one. “burnt out stars they shine so bright… all of us” is def. giving lyctor vibes. (just children playing with reflections thinking they were stars grauauauagh etc etc) plus plus “he’s not perfect/he’s a victim/of his occupation/social insulation/secret intervention” like fuck dude he really is!!! pilot that president around ordinary dude fuck the world up with your good intentions!!! 10/10 this song is the brainrot undying the kindly prince of my lyctor brainrot
Blindness
besties ngl i am INCREDIBLY torn on this one,,, on one hand “what it is and where it stops nobody knows/you gave me a life i never chose/i wanna leave but the world wont let me go” goes crazy hard. like harrowhark ‘cursed to keep living’ nonagesimus? hello is that u? on the other hand the whole opening sequence of this is very blood of eden coded… 5/10 this song has a very Character Energy about it but i think i must accept that that character is probably not a tlt one
Stadium Love
ohohohoo! here she comes!! this song IS about canaan house like the whole thing n nothing will convince me otherwise. "wanna make a deal/angel versus eel" hm im getting gideighth betrayal vibes from this "rabbit versus dove" WHAT DID I SAY colum get back here your government assigned fursona is in the song "owl versus dove" uuuuuh this can be about the sixth being cool basically whenever because sixth -> wisdom -> athena -> owl. idc that they live on mercury fuck off. the blorbos may be smart but i dont have to be. btw camilla hect if you read this im free on thursday night and would like to hang out plz respond and then hang out with me on thursday night when im free. u can bring your necromancer too if yw.

"NO. ONES. GETTING. OUT" well. uh. none of them are. plus cant you just see the Character Portrait Flashes AMV Moments to the wooowooos?? cant you??? "without STADIUM LOVE" the last time they say this w the beat drop it should be gidedeath cytherea duel epic timez and then the echoing "love love" at the end is harrow waking up and mouthing The Three Syllables TM. 11/10 somebody lend me their animation skills please i would be sooo epic and responsible with them i have a Vison...

Madie Aizawa: Origin (P.2)
WARNINGS: Sugarcoated rape implication, fake friends, cursing, family issues, the app I use doesn’t help transfer all the font stuff onto tumblr so I’m sad lmao
“Was that last part really necessary?” The homeless-looking Hero spoke this time. Puppeteer looked around the bland room, thinking. She moved her hands around as she did so, making the handcuff chains jingle. Blinking, she made direct eye contact with him. “Eh…not really. I just wanted to add that little detail.” Her mouth twisted into a strange grin, disappearing and reappearing like a tic. “Why?” The flame Hero demanded. He was such a nosy, nosy man. “Because I wanted y’all to get a feel for the place! Put you guys in my shoes for a li’l bit. Besides, I was a little out of it that day.” This time, the grin that formed on her face stayed for a while. The hobo-Hero haha hobo Hero. That’s funny spoke up again. “Why not tell us how the whole house looks then?” “I’m too lazy, man. Leave me alooooneee.” Puppeteer pouted, her previous grin gone and strange sneer now replacing it. The flame Hero, seemingly aggravated, pounded his fist into the table to bring all of them back to the present. Clearing his throat, he ordered, “Continue. No more wasting time.” The girl blinked rapidly before exhaling in a very unnecessary manner. “M’kay..” . . . No more than a week had passed when something…interesting, to say the least, happened. Madie sat in seat 12, on the second-to-last row of desks towards the left of the classroom during third period Humanities class when the teacher announced a semester-long project for the end of seventh grade. The class groaned as Mrs. Kassel continued with the instructions. “Remember, you have all semester to work on this project. I will assign pairs of students to work together.” She began drawing two names at a time from a jar, instructing each pair to move to desks close to each other and push them together. After all the names in the class were drawn, students began to do as instructed and push their desks together. “Take the rest of the period to get to know your partners, as you will be working with them for the rest of the year!” Of course Madie had zoned out when her partner was called. Or did she? Either way, she was forced to look around the room helplessly until it was clear who she was working with. When her partner finally did find her, she wasn’t making eye-contact. When she looked up after sitting down, she was faced with a bird-headed boy. Literally freaking bird headed. Was that his Quirk? Idiot. Of course it is. “Uh…hi. How are you?” she asked out of polite habit. The boy tilted his head in what seemed to be confusion. “Hi? Can you hear me? How are you today?” When he still hadn’t responded, that same look on his face, she tried again in Spanish. It didn’t work. Obviously. After some awkward silence between them, Madie decided to give Japanese a shot. When the boy perked up and responded with an “I’m fine, thanks,” Madie beamed. “You speak Japanese too?” The boy nodded. “Yes. I’m from Japan. What about you?” “Oh. I was born here, but my mom is from Mexico and my dad is from Japan. They insist that I learn both of those languages.” “Can you read any form of Japanese?” “It’s a little confusing, but yeah. Hey, what’s your name?” “Tokoyami Fumikage.” “Surname first?” “Yes. What’s your name?” “Madie Aizawa; surname last.” “I see. It’s nice to meet you.” The two of them shook hands, almost smiling. Madie was quick to break the handshake and get a pencil out, though. The two of them talked a little about the project itself, but their conversations mostly consisted of random cultural and Quirk-related subjects. Madie was enlightened to learn that Tokoyami had a sentient being that came with his Quirk as well. “Dude! That’s awesome! I’ve got a sentient guy, too. I call him ‘Walter.’” Tokoyami’s mouth beak thingy no wait mouth curved upward in a slight smile. The first genuinely kind smile a guy has shown her since Leo left.
“I have a request, Aizawa.” Tokoyami inquired as the two of them were leaving for fourth period. Madie turned to her new friend. “What is it?” The black bird sighed. “I need help with English. Do you think you can teach me?” Madie’s mouth curved slightly. “Sure, I can try. I’m not a good teacher. Come sit with me at lunch, though!” Tokoyami nodded, turning to his class and mumbling something like, “Revelry in the dark…” when a strange side comment was made about his ‘anime talk.’ Well, that was weird.
Madie sat awkwardly at her table, staring into space. Looking at nothing, yet not completely zoned out. “Are you not eating again?” Madie sat up straight, looking slightly upwards at her friend. She was relatively tall, like most people she knew. Her pale face scrunched up in effort to push up her thick round glasses, simultaneously blowing her caramel-brown hair out of her face. Madie grinned. “Bri, I think you need to stop questioning my decisions. I don’t question whatever you were just trying to do, after all.” She paused, glancing around. “Where the frik is Ivy?” “Ivy?” Bri echoed, face more smooth, with only her brows furrowed together in thought. “Ivy Green?” “Yes, Ivy Green. Don’t get me wrong, she gives off fake friend vibes, but I really need an excuse to have Johnathan avoid me a little.” “A little?” “Bri. It’s Johnathan. He’s not gonna stop…uh…messing with me just because I hang out with his freaking sister.” Bri sat down with a huff, grimacing. “Damn understatement of the fucking century, Madie.” “Woah. Bri. You cuss?” “I think we can all say that Johnathan deserves to be cussed out,” She laughed knowingly. Madie nodded, clearing her throat as Ivy herself sat down next to Bri. “Hi guys! What were y’all talking about?” Silence. Ivy smirked awkwardly before switching subjects. “So, anything interesting happen in you guys’ classes lately?” Bri shook her head. Madie, uncharacteristically, spoke up. “We’ve got a project to do in Humanities; I think my partner might be a new student and I asked him to sit with us today.” “Ooh, you should ask him!” Ivy chirped curiously, her hazel eyes gleamed with multiple excited emotions. Bri nodded in agreement. She must really not feel like talking today. Madie sighed jokingly. “That’s my plan. Though it could just be my own unobservant ass’ fault.” Madie must be cursed, because every person she’s talked about today has just- shown up out of nowhere. Tokoyami shuffled awkwardly as he sat down with none other than Johnathan Green standing next to him, smirking so confidently it was almost dark. Well, no. It was dark. It was just that not many would know it at first glance. “You’re welcome,” he quipped, hands on his hips. “Bird-brain was tryina find you, Madie.” Madie nodded stiffly, giving Tokoyami the most reassuring smile she could before Johnathan’s hand was shoved in front of her face. “Back to business as usual.” He prodded. Madie glanced around, trying not to be surprised at Bri and Ivy’s expressions. Their brows were knit in what looked like either pity or concern, she couldn’t decide which. Johnathan cleared this throat. “Give it. Now, Madie.” She was close. Close to crying, that is. Aggressively removing her bag from her shoulders and handing it to Johnathan for her ‘check up’ was normal…for her; she knew the others just weren’t used to seeing this particular part of her school routine. There was a deafening silence at the table, not counting the rustling of the inside of Madie’s small black handbag as the muscular boy rummaged through all three of its pockets. He handed it back about a minute later, the most sickening, shit-eating grin and straight evil look in his eyes as he did so. “All good. See you later!~” He walked off rather quickly, allowing Madie to turn back to her friends at last. “What was that about?” Madie’s relief shifted immediately to annoyance as she glared back at Ivy. “Since when is it any of your fucking business, girl?” Ivy seemed to almost shiver at that, looking defensive. “Okay, geez. I was just asking, since he’s my brother.” Madie huffed. “Ask him, then. He’ll be real glad to tell you. I swear, he’d brag about it to anyone.” Her pounding heart slowed a little, and she turned her attention to Tokoyami. “Hey, sorry ‘bout that.” The raven shook his head. “It’s fine. He seemed rude anyways.” Understatement of the fucking century, Madie snorted inwardly. “Anyways,” she continued. “I need to introduce you to my friends, then we can get to everything else…”
Boy, was Madie glad to be free that day. Johnathan was kind enough to not initiate anything today and school was finally over! Lunch was her favorite part of today, because she learned a lot about Tokoyami. He was, in fact, not a new student, but he never talked to anyone because of his terrible English. He’d been at this school since the beginning of Madie’s 6th grade year. It would’ve been nice to know that she could’ve branched out a little and made some real friends on her own. The reason Tokoyami was even here was because of a business trip his parents had to go on. Call it bad luck that Madie didn’t even know he existed until today. At home, that was pretty much all Madie talked about to her parents over dinner. “I’m happy for you, sweetie,” Madie’s father laughed. “You made a friend without Leo’s help!” Madie giggled in response. “Yeah…but he’s in Japan right now, so I kinda had to.” The two of them laughed for a couple seconds longer before her mother began to talk about something they’d all been anticipating for a while. For Madie’s next birthday, they wanted to do something big for her. For some reason. When Madie asked why, she responded with, “Well, after this birthday, you’ll be in high school! It’s a big change!” Madie pursed her lips in annoyance. It’S a BiG cHaNgE! Cliché. Annoying. Old. She wasn’t complaining, though. It occurred to her, why we’re they just talking about it now? “That’s it?” She wondered aloud. Madie’s father smiled a little more, fixing his long black hair into a messy man-bun. “Well, we wanted you to choose what we do. You can go anywhere you want for this birthday…” A look from her mother. “…and…Kaito’s coming to visit tomorrow. We need to make sure he wants to go.” What? Kaito? “I-It’s fine if the doesn’t, but we need to all be on the same page.” He began to fret a little. Madie blinked, processing the situation. Kaito Aizawa. Kaito-nii. Now? Now of all times, he’s visiting from college? Sighing, she put on the best smile she could for her parents. “Oh. Okay. Thanks for, uh, letting me know.” “Alright, hijita. If you’re done eating, then go shower and head to bed.” Madie’s mom told her smoothly. Madie nodded obediently and rushed upstairs to shower.
Madie lay in bed, trying her very best to sleep. Tomorrow was Saturday, but still. She wanted sleep. Sleep would be great, especially after spending twenty minutes washing filth and ick off of her body. Stupid anxiety. Go away. No. She didn’t hate her brother. She had no negative feelings towards him whatsoever. It’s just… He greatly resembles Johnathan’s appearance. Greatly. The hair, skin, and fashion taste were all the same as him. That’s what made her heart explode in her tightened chest, panic rising. It meant a whole day was going to be spent with someone who resembles her bully. Bully? More like tormentor and rapist, idiot bitch. Whatever. All she had to do was avoid staring at him for too long. That, and avoid any business ties and belts that just happen to be lying around the house. Or, how about this? Just don’t have a fucking panic attack. That would be nice. Should be easy, probably. Just breathe. Remember that he’s related to you and is the polar opposite of who he looks like. An hour passed of repeating these thoughts before Madie fell into a dreamless sleep.
“G’morning, baby sis~” Madie’s eyes shot open at the words. The tone made her chest achingly tight with panic and it only intensified when she saw the face she was looking at. She jumped, sitting upright in her soft bed, hugging onto one of her pillows. The 19-year-old lounging on the edge of her bed erupted with laughter. “Ah! Did I scare you?” he asked. “Sorry ‘bout that.” She blinked at him aggressively. “Yes.” “Why the f—table flip did you say it like that?” “How…else do you want me to say it?” “I—Well—normally, excitedly, tiredly? Any other way but whatever that crap was.” Awkward silence stood between the two siblings. Madie took a deep breath and greeted him back. “Hi, dude. How’s life been?” Kaito shrugged, and the two continued talking semi-awkwardly. Lots of catching up to do! “Wanna go eat now? Mom and Dad said we need to talk about some shit.” Madie nodded. She was hungry and she smelled bacon. That means food. She got up quickly and threw on her white fluffy robe and followed her older brother downstairs and into the kitchen. There, their parents were moving about, getting a hearty breakfast ready for the four of them. Madie’s dad sat down with a cup of creamy coffee and some eggs. He motioned for the two siblings to sit across from him as the food was placed in the center of the wooden table. “I see neither of you have changed yet,” he observed casually. “Mhm,” Kaito responded. “Oh, yeah. You were asleep when I got here, Madie.” Okay. Nice, I guess. Selena cleared her throat. “We want to talk about Madie’s party that’s coming in a few months. Have you decided where you want to go?” Before she could say anything, Kaito sighed dejectedly. “It doesn’t really matter, because I won’t be able to go.” “Oh…” Taeko mumbled, almost disappointed. “Why not?” “I’ve got finals and several huge projects around that time. Don’t think I’ve forgotten when her birthday is.” Her mom pursed her lips. “Kai-“ “No, mom. I would if I could. I really want to go, but I just. Can’t.” Madie’s mom didn’t let any awkward silence set for long. “Well…Johnathan would be a lot happier without you there, I think.” A pang hit Madie’s chest like an electric shock. “What? Johnathan?” She nodded. “You’re inviting him and his friends. I’ve talked to his parents about it already.” Madie’s father raised his arms to his head, cowering in something akin to embarrassment. He mumbled incoherently as his wife continued. “I know you two don’t have the best relationship, but I think it’ll be good for you two to try to get along. Is that hard for you?” Madie drew in a shaky breath. “Mom…I know you want to have everyone be friends and be happy around each other. I respect that. It’s just…Johnathan hates me, I don’t like him, and I just-“ She glanced over at Kaito, who looked ridden with confusion and concern. “I don’t want to have a bad birthday.” Madie’s mother pursed her lips again and sighed. “You need to give each other a chance, sweetie.” “Why would you be concerned about his happiness? Also, why the hell would this guy be happier without me around?” Kaito growled, irritatingly confused. All attention was turned to him; even Madie’s father lifted his head to stare at his son. Madie did her best to maintain eye contact as she explained. “He looks a lot like you, except he has green eyes and he’s a little shorter. That’s why. Honestly, he’d mess with you just for your appearance.” “Mom just seems to think that we need to be suck-ups in order for ‘eVeRyOnE tO bE hApPy’!” She returned to her food as her mother began to lecture her, the anxiety never loosening it’s powerful grip on her chest. “Madie, I realize that you’re upset about this, but I don’t want you talking back to me. I’m trying to make sure that everyone has a good time.” She went on and on and on and on. Eventually, when Madie did respond and apologize, her older brother began calling her out for backing down.
The argument went on for several minutes, but eventually it calmed down. All it took was pleading from Taeko. Madie’s mom sighed. “I’m sorry, everyone. I just…don’t want us to have constant stress over other people.” “You’re fine,” the siblings responded simultaneously. Madie’s father cleared his throat. “I-I hope we’ve come to an agreement. Arguing isn’t good.” They did. That agreement, however, is what Madie’s mom had originally planned. Now she had to give out some invitations…and make a call.
The Monday after, she had to hand Johnathan’s group their invitations, after some…business was taken care of. She made the call after dinner at home. It went something like this:
Ring-ring! Ring-ring! “Hello? Who is this?” “Hi, Ms. Takami. This is Madie, Leo’s friend.” “Oh, hello Madie! How are you doing, sweetie?” Such a faker. She’s good at it, too. “I’m good, how about you?” “I’m doing great! What did you need me for?” “Oh, right.” Madie took a deep breath. “I—I was wondering if Leo would be able to come to my party in a few months? October 6.” Silence over the phone. There were a few background noises, but nothing more. Are those fucking moans!? She continued. “Uh-Well, there are others coming. My-My friend Bri, uh, another friend named Tokoyami, and Johnathan and his friends are coming, courtesy of my mother. Um, just letting you know so that you can make a decision-“ “Oh, Johnathan! I heard that he’s a very good friend of yours and Leo’s, so of course he can go. I’m sure the two of them will be ecstatic to see each other!” Leo’s mother responded with a strange kind of enthusiasm. She should’ve guessed that Johnathan and this whore knew each other. I bet y’all are besties. “Is something the matter?” Ms. Takami asked in false concern. “No, ma’am. I’m fine,” she assured the woman. “I’ll be sure to mail you the invitation today. Can I get your address?” The woman made an affirmative sound, and Madie got a slip of paper to write it down. She then rushed to complete the invitation and mail it off. She wrote the address and names on the card in rushed but neat writing; her mom eyed her with concern. “Is everything okay, mija?” She nodded, finishing and placing it in the envelope. “I’m great, Mami. Leo’s mom is letting him go to the party.”

I read an interesting BNHA fic the other day called “Burn Your Wings”!
The premise is the Izuku inherits both of his parents Quirks- but his father is a villain, and a father way more brutal than Endeavor besides, so he swears he’ll become a hero without ever using his fire. When he hears Todoroki’s story, he sees a kindred spirit in him- and realizes that together, they just might be able to help each other out.
The way @owhitekiwibird (at AO3 here) writes the mechanics of Izuku having his parents’ Quirks working in tandem is a really unique dynamic, and throwing One for All into the mix just makes for an even more creative use of powers! I definitely recommend reading this fic, I can’t wait for future updates!

can i request the blue lock 11 w a beautiful manager! reader?
whaaaa a blue lock request?? i'm honestly surprised lol. i honestly haven't reread blue lock in forever so i can barely remember anything LMAO. i would like to focus on characters that i can portray well, if that's ok with you? but i promise i'll try my best!! thanks for requesting <3
crushing on a (beautiful) manager
including: itoshi rin, isagi youichi, nagi seishirou, karasu tabito, otoya eita, yukimiya kenyu, bachira meguru, chigiri hyouma, niko ikki, aryu jyubei, gagamaru gin, mikage reo, hiori yo, barou shoei
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
concept: ego had thought it would be a good idea if he got a manager to help the team, as well as...motivate them. not in a weird way, of course, but they definitely needed a change in pace.
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
itoshi rin
he honestly thought you were a nuisance at first
like, what was ego thinking? bringing a girl into blue lock?
he figured out soon enough at how skillful you were
in both strategizing and helping with injuries and other physical therapy
after getting used to you and actually getting to know you, he realized how beautiful you are
and boom, just like that, he had a crush
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
isagi youichi
you were kind of a wildcard to him
he didn't really know what to expect when you were first introduced
but like rin, after getting to know you, he had developed a crush on you
eventually liked to talk to you daily, asking about small things like 'how's your day going?' or advice in how you think he can improve
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
nagi seishirou
he thought you were really cute as soon as he saw you
but he was honestly kind of lazy, so he didn't do much about his little crush
you ended up sticking around him because the other members were a bit too loud for your liking
eventually you started hanging out with him more, and played video games with him a lot
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
karasu tabito
he was very rude at first, calling you boring
but he was taken aback when you retorted back at him, mocking his hair (LMAO)
he was quiet real quick after that
of course, he knew that you were one of the most beautiful people he's ever met
but the fact that you bite back lit a flame in him
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
otoya eita
he called you pretty before even introducing himself
you guys started gravitating towards each other
and the other boys noticed haha
so they kind of stayed clear of flirting with you
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
yukimiya kenyu
honestly, it was the other way around in this scenario
you started crushing on him IMMEDIATELY
but he thought you were pretty too
NONSTOP FLIRTING
like, everyone would leave the room as soon as y'all started talking
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
bachira meguru
he's such a little crackhead
always talked to you whenever he saw you, and it was usually about stupid stuff
was really shy at first, but he really liked you after he got to know you
HE'S SUCH A HUGGER TOO
he would run to you at random times and almost tackle you
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
chigiri hyouma
he instantly was intrigued by your beauty
specifically your hair (as basic as that may seem)
because you actually had the same color hair as him??
he always asked hair and skin care questions
because you seemed like a angel to him
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
niko ikki
he avoided you like the plague
there was no way he was talking to someone this pretty
eventually you talked to him because you felt like he hated you for no reason
that wasn't the case, and you guys got to know each other
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
aryu jyubei
you were his goddess
he worshiped you and your beauty
would quite literally do anything for you
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
gagamaru gin
he was very nice to you from the beginning
helps you carry your things
compliments you
basically a gentleman
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
mikage reo
this man would literally buy you the world
he thought you were really pretty
and if he wants something, he gets it
would always be by your side when he's not practicing
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
hiori yo
very kind to you
you always went to him to hang out and vent
he would always provide snacks for your little sesh
you instantly liked him
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
barou shoei
he honestly didn't give a shit about you at first
why would a stupid girl need to be apart of blue lock
after a while of (unfortunately) being around you, he realized you both had a LOT in common
you were very clean and organized, and he really liked you for that
eventually became nicer to you
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

Tagged by @astridbecks​ (you know I never turn down a chance to talk about my stories haha)
Rules: List the first lines of the last ten (10) stories you published.  Look to see any patterns you notice yourself, and see if anyone else notices any. Then tag some friends. consider yourself tagged if you want to do it!
(I’m doing more than one line for some of these because I can - also, I skipped a few items that were either not prose (poetry, songs, etc) or were collaborations with other people so the first lines are not necessarily mine. This is also just based on what’s on AO3, I think I have at least one Tumblr story that should be in here too but I was too lazy to figure out where it should go in the order.)
1. Baba Yaga’s Bequest (original work, original m/nb pairing)  
“I’m sorry, it’s what?” I press the phone tighter to my ear and cover the other with my free hand. This house is never quiet in the first place, but ever since we got the news this afternoon my family has been in an uproar. I elbow my way past squabbling cousins and dodge Aunt Inessa’s wooden spoon to escape the kitchen. The back door closing behind me muffles the noise just in time for Feliks to repeat himself.
2. Saw you down at the space bar (Murderbot and Mandalorian crossover, no pairing) 
<opening secure feed channel> SecUnit? Is everything okay? I'm not sure. Running a risk assessment now.
3. Great was their loaf and greatly did it sustain them (Queen’s Thief, modern AU Costis/Kamet)
Late as it was, they met no one on the street as Costis led the way to his apartment.
4. Sorrow Knocks (original work based on a song, original m/m pairing)
Flames licked along the bed of coals, flickering behind the haze of smoke. It looked and sounded just like real fire: crackling, dancing, occasionally sending up a shower of sparks with a loud pop. But the same coals had been there for a good hour now, and they hadn’t gotten any smaller. Also, the room was cold, but that didn’t mean much. Jonah was always cold.
5. Bread and Oranges (original work based on a song, original m/nb pairing)
Will you tell me a story? What kind of story? A story from before. When the world was different. The world is different every day, you know.
6. Operation: Boyfriend (original work, original m/m pairing)
The room was quiet apart from the soft hum of medical devices and an occasional chime from one of the monitors. According to his chart, the man in the bed had been treated for a broken arm, a head injury, and numerous small lacerations and contusions after a “car accident”. Which, while technically correct, was far from the full story.
7. A Song for a Stranger’s Smile (original work, original m/m pairing)
A log shifted on the fire, sending up a shower of sparks. The soft crackle of flames made a fine background for the tune Noll plucked out on his harp, idle notes to warm the quiet evening.
8. On first and fierce affirming sight (Queen’s Thief, modern AU Costis/Kamet)
“Explain to me one more time,” Kamet said, “Why you want me to do this.”
9. First Snow, Frozen Toes (Queen’s Thief, Costis/Kamet)
Four days into our journey through the Taymets, we saw snow for the first time.
10. Solider, Poet (Queen’s Thief, Relius/Teleus)
I wake each morning the sun threading through the window, first light falling on linen fine as your hair, soft,
Analysis:
I’m kind of surprised only four of these start with dialogue, since that’s one of my favorite ways to kick off a story. Not terribly surprised that most of the remainder of them are atmospheric setting descriptions, though, and there are several common elements: fire, quiet, evening, cold (or warmth overtaking cold). I have spent a lot of my life staring into campfires and it shows.
It’s also interesting that most of these are in third person (though it’s hard to tell from the first lines - numbers 1, 5, and 9 are all in first person and 2 is ambiguous because it’s all dialogue). I feel like I’ve actually been writing first person a LOT more recently, but I guess several of those stories have not actually been published yet.
