“Of course I wasn’t home for curfew,” you chuckle, sending Shauna and Jackie an odd look. You were talking about the keg party you had all attended last night, and how late you had ended up leaving.
“Won’t your parents care?” Shauna scoffs.
“As long as I’m not pregnant, why the hell would Rebecca care?”
Both of them look at you, even more confused now. You sigh, bringing your knee up to your chest to tie your cleats.
“Rebecca? The housekeeper? I told you guys about her, right?” Jackie nods after a moment.
“Yeah, but… I kinda thought you were joking?”
You let out a laugh, bending over on the bench, almost crying as you double over.
“Oh, oh, my God, that is so funny,” you breathe when you calm down. “I mean, like, not to be a bitch, but come on! My dad’s off in like, Canada or something, and my mom’s at a wellness retreat in San Antonio. Rebecca is my second mom, basically.”
“Yeah…” Jackie chuckles. “Because that’s perfectly normal.”
You shrug, setting your now tied cleats onto the ground.
“Oh, that reminds me. I was thinking- team bonding at my house tonight? We can use the pool, and I think the hottub is warm, and Rebecca can order pizza for us!” you stand up, putting your hands around Jackie and Shauna’s shoulders as Coach Martinez calls you onto the field.
“Can Jeff come?” Jackie asks.
“Only if you share,” you wink, and it takes Jackie a moment, but she laughs when she realizes you’re joking.
Shauna shrugs. “I’ll come.”
“Great!” you smile, squeezing their shoulders before letting go to take a knee in front of Coach.
—-
“Hey, Taissa,” you say. There’s a pause in the scrimmage- one of the JV girls had accidentally kicked the ball over the fence, and Misty had volunteered to go get it, conveniently not knowing where the extras were.
“Hey, Y/N,” Taissa says, stretching by pulling her foot up to her back.
“Team bonding at my house tonight?” she raises one eyebrow at you. You would be lying if you said you didn’t have a reputation. “Fine. It’s a party.”
She looks you up and down. “Free booze?”
“And pizza!” you sing. “Bring your bathing suit, too.”
She bites her lip, toying with the idea. “Sure,” she says after a moment, sending you a small smile.
“What could the great Taissa Turner possibly have to say to the Party Queen?” Natalie snorts, walking over just as Misty shouts she has the ball, starting her run back over.
Taissa rolls her eyes.
“Party,” you say, drawing out the world while you fix your ponytail. “Free booze, free pizza, and my pool? What’s not to love?”
She smiles and rolls her eyes. “Sorry, Y/N, I’m just deathly allergic to mansions and the people who live in them.”
“You’re no fun,” you scoff. “I mean, what else are you gonna do tonight? Get drunk and suck someone’s dick? Why not at least do it on my dad’s dime?”
“Ha. Fuck you, Y/N.”
“Will you just come?” you groan. “It’s team bonding.”
She stares at you up and down for a moment, and you adjust your jersey, feeling weird under her stare.
“Fine,” she says after a moment.

Rebecca had only shook her head and said not to cause any damage, before placing an order for a million pizzas, and you changed into bathing suit, putting on a loose white cover-up, making sure the pool was clean and the snacks and pizza were out- before you rubbed some sunscreen on yourself, put on some sunglasses, and sat in the last rays of the dying sun.
“Oh, holy shit,” someone laughs, and you hear the click of the fence gate shut. You pull your sunglasses down, looking at Taissa and Van.
“You’re here!” you smile, standing up, adjusting your sunglasses and placing an oversized beach hat on your head. Van immediately grabs a slice of pizza, looking at you, but you only make a wide motion with your hands. “The hot tubs at, like, 102, and the pool is at 84, I think,” your voice drops to a whisper, even though Rebecca is inside the guest room reading her romance book, “the beer is in the coolers.” You nod your head to the two coolers you had lined up against the wall and filled with cheap alcohol.
“Oh, thank God,” Taissa mutters, immediately walking over to it. The gate creaks open again, and slowly, everyone starts filing in.
—-
Natalie doesn’t arrive until it’s already dark, when it feels like the party is just getting started. You’ve long abandoned all your accessories, instead chatting with one of the freshman, Allie, about how she had gotten invited to prom.
“Hey, Party Queen,” Natalie mutters, looking around, and you’re already a little tipsy.
“Natalie!” you shout, not meaning to, and she laughs and cringes while you clear your throat. “I’m drunk,” you explain, and she raises her eyebrows.
“Just a bit?”
“Just a bit,” you nod, saluting like a soldier, which makes you giggle. “Oh, um, beer is-” you spin around, until you finally find the wall with the coolers. “There. And any pizza left is on the table. You were late,” you shrug.
“Oh, wow. What will I ever do without a slice of cheap pizza?”
You frown. “I love Alfredo’s pizza, though.”
“Oh, God,” she mutters, looking around the backyard. Allie has long since walked away. “This place is ridiculous, you know?”
“Ridiculously fun?” you ask, reaching out to grab her wrist, tugging her over to the lounge chairs. A girl screams as she jumps into the pool from the diving board, and Natalie grins, laughing.
“Not the word I would have used,” Natalie shrugs, and you grab her bag from her and put it on the nearest lounge chair. “What the fuck are you doing?” she asks, not making a move to grab her bag.
“Won’t you swim?” you ask, feeling slightly bad that not everyone is having fun at your party. You had a reputation to uphold, anyways. Natalie rolls her eyes, and you lift off your bathing suit cover, letting it drop to the concrete.
She looks at your boobs.
“Stoo staring at my boobs,” you grumble, slipping off your flip-flops.
“What- why would I stare at your boobs?”
“‘Cause I’m hot, duh.”
“I think the parties are getting to your brain.”
You shrug and step into the water, looking at her over your shoulder. And she’s staring at you, but she doesn’t make any move to take off your own clothes. You shrug and submerge yourself, swimming over to Jackie, Shauna, and the infamous Jeff.
—-
You climb out of the pool, pretending you don’t feel eyes on you, spotting Natalie and a glowing ember in her hand. She hasn’t even taken off her jacket, and you suppose it’s a little chilly, especially coming out of the water.
The refreshing pool did nothing to make you any less drunk, and you sit on the end of Natalie’s lounge chair, forcing her to tuck her legs up and sit to avoid getting wet.
“Jesus Christ,” she groans, letting smoke blow out of her mouth. You lean forward.
“Give me some,” you say.
She scoffs. “Why would I do that? Not even a please from the spoiled queen? Oh, God, I’m wounded.”
“Fine. You’ve smoked so much I can probably just absorb it from the air around you.”
You can see her smile, slightly forced, like it always is when it comes to you. “Why are you such a bitch? Mad that daddy’s away?”
“I’m having a pool party at my house, unsupervised, with pizza and beer. Why would I be mad?”
“Yeah, whatever,” she mumbles.
“Seriously, can I have some, though?”
“No.”
“Look at who’s the bitch now, huh?”
“You didn’t even say please, you spoiled brat.”
“Please!” you shout, a smile on your face, and Natalie laughs but finally gives in after a moment, putting the join in front of your face, and you eagerly wrap your lips around the end and breathe in the poisoned air.
You cough, smoke dripping from your mouth.
“Loser,” she mumbles, and you choose to pretend not to have heard it. She takes it back, taking her own drag, and the sounds of the girls talking and shouting and water splashing becomes the only noise.
Natalie Scatorccio has hated you from as long as you could remember. Maybe she was jealous, or maybe you had really done something to hurt her- either indirectly, or so long ago and small enough you had completely forgotten.
“Jesus,” she mutters after a moment, shuffling around, before something hits you.
“The fuck?” you ask, only to be faced with Natalie’s jacket.
“You’re shivering. It’s making me cold just looking at you.”
“Aw,” you coo, wrapping the leather jackets over your mostly-dried shoulders. “Who knew Natalie Scatorccio, infamous bitch, had a heart?”
“Who knew Y/N L/N, infamous brat, could be stupid enough to not grab a towel after she got out the pool?”
“Why do you hate me?” you ask after a moment. “Like, seriously. Did I do something super fucked up in elementary school? Because, come on, get over it.”
“I don’t hate you. You’re just annoying and spoiled.”
“So you’ve mentioned.” You turn to her, eyeing her suspiciously, and her cheeks flush, but it’s probably from the weed. “Get over it,” you say after a moment. “Not my fault my dad is like, rich, or whatever.”
She just looks away.
“Well, you’re annoying, too, you know,” you say after a moment, missing the sound of her voice.
“Oh?” she asks, but by the way she smiles- both of you know you have nothing to say.
“Whatever,” you mumble. “This is making me sad.”
You stand, stumbling a bit, throwing Natalie’s now damp jacket back onto her.
—-
By the time Jackie and Shauna have bid their goodbyes to you, everyone else is gone. You sigh, suiting on a lounge chair in the pitch black, stretching and feeling everything pop, before curling up. You think you stay like that for a few more minutes, telling yourself you’ll get up, but you never do.
The gate creaks open again, and you flip over, scared about serial killers-
“Damn,” Natalie mutters. “I just forgot my jacket. You… you good?” you sigh and wrap your arms around yourself.
You love throwing parties. You love the people and the music, the food and the drinks, the drugs, everything about it. They call you the Party Queen and you are- but mainly because you wish they would never end.
There’s this empty feeling festering inside of you, and this sickness that will never be cured. You tell yourself you’re not bothered by your parents leaving, but now, you don’t know.
Natalie takes a few steps closer, and you look up at her.
“I never like the end of parties,” you say.
“It’s freezing outside. You’re gonna catch a cold,” Natalie sighs, picking up her jacket. But maybe you’re too drunk too move. Natalie takes a sip from someone’s leftover beer. She mutters something to herself, before grabbing your hand and hauling you up to stand.
You stumble, drunk and confused, and she’s drunk too, so she barely steadies you, her hands all over you.
“Huh?” you say, and she wraps a tentative arm around your waist and guides you around the pool, and to the faint lights of your house.
“Time for bed,” she mumbles, and you look at her, before unlocking the sliding glass door and stepping inside the cool house.
“Why are you helping me?” you ask, staring at her suspiciously as you both lean on each other, tired and tipsy.
“I would feel like shit if I just let you to die out there.”
“I wasn’t gonna die,” you snort, taking a turn so you end up in front of the stairs. “It’s not cold enough for that yet. Besides, I was gonna get up.”
“You’re drunk,” she deadpans, and you look at her, almost missing a step, but the two of you quickly steady yourselves. “You can’t even get up the stairs, Y/N,” she sighs.
“Okay,” you mumble, drawing out the word, until you finally lean forward and open the door. Natalie helps you sit on the bed, before looking around your room, covered in soccer trophies and medals, pictures of various teams you had been on.
She sighs. “Goodnight, Party Queen,” she says after a moment, and turns to leave.
“How are you gonna get home?”
“Walk,” she shrugs, and you open the window near your bed, looking out at the sky through the faint streetlights. It’s dark, not only from the lack of sunlight but from some dark clouds rolling about in the sky.
“But, like, don’t you live at the trailer park? That’s, like, on the other side of town.” You gesture to the window. “I think it’s gonna rain.”
“Okay, Miss Meteorologist,” she chuckles, but you aren’t laughing. You’re tired.
“You can stay, if you want,” you yawn. “Rebecca won’t mind.”
“Goodnight,” she says again, as you stand up and start to slip off your bathing suit.
“You should stay.”
She doesn’t turn around until you do, until you’ve slipped on a t-shirt and a pair of undies.
“You should stay, Natalie. I would feel horrible if you died out there.”
She looks at you, then at the dark window.
“Fine,” she says after a moment, slipping off her jacket and her sneakers, placing them in a neat pile near your bed. “Only ‘cause I don’t wanna get rained on.”
“You’re drooling thinking about sharing a bed with me.”
It takes her a moment, but she laughs. Like, really, truly laughs in a way you haven’t heard anyone laugh in years. And after a moment, you’re laughing too, and suddenly she’s sitting on the edge of your bed next to you, the laughter dying off.
“I’m going to bed,” you announce, already dreading waking up with a hangover.
Everything you’re doing is shrouded in a thick haze, and you can’t tell which way is up or down, and you can’t turn back. Not now.
“I always thought you were a bitch. ‘Cause you were such a bitch to me,” you say, curling up on your side. She lays on her back, staring at the ceiling, staying far away from you and breathing heavily.
“You deserved it,” she says after a moment. “You always walk around like you own the world- it was my cosmic duty to knock you down a few pegs.” You giggle, and she finally turns her head to face you. She hides a hiccup into her hand. “But, uh, this house is so big and empty, you know? Now I feel bad.”
“I don’t think you’re so bad, Natalie,” you murmur, and she lets out a dry laugh.
“Maybe you aren’t either. I mean, you’re still a spoiled brat, but.”
“And you’re a trailer park loser.”
“Then you’re a desperate loser.”
“Fuck off, bitch,” you mutter into the pillow. “At least I’m not a goddamn drug addict.”
“At least I’m not a poor little lonely girl, waiting here her parents to pay attention to her.” She turns fully onto her side, and you look at her with narrowed eyes.
“At least my parents make money.”
“Shut up,” she breathes. “You don’t even know anything except spending money.”
“And you don’t know anything besides sucking dick.” The air in the room feels heavier, tangible.
“Shut up.”
“At least I have money to spend.”
But the more you talk, the more you don’t mean it. The more smiles form across both of your faces, giddy and carefree, too teenage girls basically home alone in a big mansion- but they only care about this room, this bed.
“Shut. Up.”
She’s whispering now, leaning towards you, and you’re leaning towards her, like you’re two magnets who can’t stay away.
“You shut up.”
She makes a motion that seems to be a shrug, before making the final leap forward, that final connection, and smashing her lips onto yours.
Life becomes flashes of teeth and tongues, lips and hands, until you’re pulling back for air, her hands in your hair, your lips bitten and swollen, the remnants of your lipstick smeared across her face.
She only pulls away enough so that your noses still brush against each others, and you can feel her breath against your skin, labored from kissing.
“At least I’m not a stupid Party Queen,” she gasps after a moment.
You smile. “You wish you were.”

Employers in ND Games Rated By Likelihood of an OSHA Violation
On a scale of 1-10, a 10 meaning holy shit OSHA needs to intervene ASAP and a 1 meaning I would generally be fine working here. Also I just took Employment Law so I’m gonna be that nitpicky person that recognizes that only employees, not independent contractors, are subject to OSHA regulations. 
SCK1: The pliers being used to fix a gas leak later swapped with a ladle is not a great solution, but what’s more concerning is what kind of godforsaken gas is coursing through the veins of that kitchen that if he doesn’t have something supporting it for 3 seconds the ENTIRE building is engulfed in flames? Are they cooking on a stove using methane gas? 9/10
SCK-Remastered: Organizing all those unrelated books is probably a pain in the ass for Aunt Eloise but not a safety risk. Getting pistol whipped by your “boss” who isn’t even an actual cop probably sucks but Nancy was functioning more as an independent contractor. I don’t remember what happens in the boiler room exactly, but I don’t think the chains on it were by design, and there was definitely a way to cool that place off if needed, so no -major- hazard. 4/10
STFD: The ability to lock that soundstage so that not even security or the fire department can get in is a lawsuit waiting to happen. The threats and stuff that Rick get probably don’t matter because he’s an independent contractor (although -maybe- an employee if he’s getting contracted season after season??), but the security overall is sus given how easily Owen Spayder snuck in. Imagine if they had some kind of sexual harassment complaint and the offender is just showing up to work under a fake identity. I wouldn’t be surprised if Dwayne was doing that already as Owen. 8/10
MHM: Everyone’s probably an independent contractor so honestly OSHA probably wouldn’t even care about that questionable chandelier. The biggest hazard in the place is asking people about gum bo fu but that seems more of an interpersonal than work environment problem. 1/10
TRT: The spinning 3-step-bridge that those chains to get into the tower activate seems like a disaster. I don’t even know where that pit goes. To the laundry facility? Also the obvious steps sliding that gets Lisa at the end. But if you keep all but the most trained employees out of the tower area and elevator shaft the rest of the place is just a hotel. 3/10
FIN: The rickety lights aren’t great, but the place was gonna get torn down anyway. The wardrobes that lead to each other seems like a sexual harassment claim waiting to happen, the literal actual guillotine could cause some problems, and what the fuck was that cooler that Maya is in at the end? Nothing major that couldn’t be fixed, but as is I’d like some investigation. 5/10
SSH: Hahahah that fucking rock solid structure with stairs with no hand railings and then you walk outside and there’s still no railings even on the BRIDGE over WATER and then it makes you walk around in the dark?? Who is the poor employee who has to restock those glowsticks when they run out? Or someone drips a lil bit of water out of their water bottle onto the stairs? When they make the staff schedule for this place they better factor in the regular trips to Nurse Bluefoot’s because everyone’s gonna be getting head injuries. 9/10
DOG: We still don’t fucking know what Ranger Akers really does for work, Emily seems to run her own basic retail business, idk how Red Knott is funding his escapades. I’m gonna hope that Mickey Malone had his employees enter through the non-graveyard route that wasn’t pitch black, but I’m also really loving the idea of a speakeasy employee snitching on OSHA because they’re not getting enough bathroom breaks or something. (OSHA wasn’t formed until the 70s) 1/10
CAR: After working at a theme park this game is extra funny but like the very concept that these pieces of actual heavy machinery could just be activated at inopportune moments by a single user? Even non-malicious employees could end up fucking murdering each other because there’s no secondary accountability to these machines. Shut this place down and redesign every ride holy shit. 9/10
DDI: I doubt OSHA would figure out how to get into the tunnels from the Hot Kettle. I don’t even know who’s really in charge of the lighthouse but I think as long as they got decent training it’s not an issue. Katie’s boat and Whale World are probably fine unless Katie sends employees down to slip on the thawing fish water. 1/10
SHA: I think….all is fine? The fucked up chicken has a clear warning, the horses are taken care of by someone who’s definitely competent, Shorty’s food is probably ass but I don’t think it’s like a medical hazard. I don’t know what the fuck Mary uses to polish agates but I assume she wears proper eye wear. 0/10
CUR: The only person working a job here is Ethel, who is probably independently contracted, but I don’t think she has anything to bitch about except Nancy going down a slide and walking out of a door. 0/10
CLK: Tubby Telegrams was like the original Postmates (so, independent contractor). The tetanus nail “tip” Nancy gets isn’t great but not worth looking into. Jim Archer’s bank is vanilla as hell. We don’t get to see any of the Lilac Inn’s dining area or kitchen. What we know about the kitchen is that it fully burns down if someone leaves the stove on, but it was the 30s so was anything really safe? 0/10
TRN: Let’s maybe assume John Grey is actually an “employee” and he’s there to find ghosts for his TV show. If so, he gets a sweet ass ENTIRE CAR to himself. The engineer has nothing to complain about. I think Fatima, the mortician at the crypt who jizzes himself over Camille’s, and any and all employees at the Copper Fork seem to be working in similar conditions to your standard fast food place. 0/10
DAN: Within 3 seconds of walking into her new job, Nancy gets a plant pot thrown at her head and is expected to act like it’s no big deal. She has to pick up cockroaches which is nasty but not a health risk (I think?). Getting kicked in the titty by your boss probably violates some rights, as is the questionable reimbursement policy regarding items haggled for at Pont Neuf. 6/10
CRE: Contrary to popular sentiment, Big Island Mike’s Immersion Excursion is not a sweat shop, but is in fact a vacation experience for the whole family (just like a sweat shop). No one knows what the hell is happening at the HilliHilli but those protective suits seem like they’re probably keeping people safe, though there’s always the lingering possibility of the Hilli HIlli Homeboy himself losing his shit on you. Dr. Kim just has you pick up bug poop which is fair given you’re working with a bug doctor. I wish there was some place at her camp to wash your hands, but we can’t have everything, can we. 4/10
ICE: The strangely unsupervised and unquestioned use of firearms by Ollie is conce
(that’s all I had written for ICE in the Google Doc I found. I’m laughing because honestly I think it sums it up pretty well so I’m just gonna leave it. I don’t know why that was the only one left incomplete)
CRY: There’s pretty much no employees in this game, since Renee is independently contracted and everyone else seems to be their own boss. Even if Lamont has a couple of employees that place doesn’t seem like it screams safety hazard, even though the sink is kinda gross. 0/10
HAU: Also no employees but maybe Donal has some sort of agreement where he sells his soul to be able to wank off around the Good People on a weekly basis. Giant chunks missing from a building aren’t great, but that sheep shearer seems to have some pretty good guards and safeties on it. The bar is just a bar. 4/10
RAN: Yet again no real employees. Maybe the monkeys work for each other? I would say their conditions are safe for monkeys, but I don’t know how they get up to the top of that cliff and communicate to those at the top to stop chucking rocks for a second for the next shift to climb up and swap out.  2/10
WAC: Paige seems to have a pretty sweet set up even though her hours are wonky and she has to be wandering around the building at godforsaken hours to catch other people wandering around the building at godforsaken hours. It’s not great that the training for the snack shop it’s just a three-ring binder but it also isn’t like there’s crazy tools involved. 2/10
TOT: The volume of electronic equipment Nancy is asked to fix with no prior training is pretty dangerous, especially when she’s asked to fix an actual literal electrical socket. We know Scott was sending people out into storms they weren’t supposed to be in so I’d say even in the storm chasing industry this team was not following generally accepting procedures. 8/10
SAW: Given that someone literally died by slipping and falling accidentally (allegedly) while cleaning the baths I’d say there’s definitely some unsafe protocols at the Ryokan. Some more railings around the garden would probably be ideal, as would maybe at least a sign by that fire in the middle of the lobby. 7/10
CAP: I don’t know how to classify the tunnels and the forest because I think Nancy is warned to not go into them whatsoever and just disregards that guidance, so I’m not sure the castle as an employer is responsible. The only person really put at risk is Lukas and he’s not an employee so OSHA wouldn’t give a fuck. 3/10
ASH: Again, a lot of people who are their own employers. Also just like a not super dangerous game in general? It’s just a town and there was an arson but that doesn’t have to do with the working conditions, but everything else seems to be up to par for the 21st century. 0/10
TMB: Idk why the fuck the scaffolding collapsed but maybe we should investigate that. Also random cobras? And sand storms? And Egyptian death traps? Fortunately this game takes place outside of the US so OSHA doesn’t have to worry about this(yes I’m being arbitrary with which games I don’t care about because of their non-US location), plus I assume most were independently contracted anyway. ???/10
DED: I mean Nancy wasn’t supposed to go into the lab and start sticking her hands in all those chemicals. Like all things considered it seems like the people authorized to access the dangerous things generally have adequate training to do so. Yeah, a dude got murdered using that equipment, but maybe if they just included a safety or required turning on the coil to be a two person job that could’ve been prevented. 2/10
GTH: The Thornton business really did have its own Triangle Fire so that’s basically the gold standard for “holy shit we need government oversight here.” I don’t really know where the employees are supposed to have been working but since everyone seems to have seen spooky things on the island I’ll assume everyone was within reach of the carbon monoxide, which is an obvious hazard. 10/10
SPY: To the degree that Nancy did work for a terrorist organization she was independently contracted, as probably everyone else was. I don’t really know how OSHA works in terms of national security related government jobs where the idea is you know you might die. But given that this whole game was about a “non lethal” threat I guess it isn’t -that- bad. But getting crushed by the trash thing was probably not ideal. 4/10
MED: I have no idea what the employment situation is where ONE GUY can just “take over” the ENTIRE crew and the entire show??? If this wasn’t a children’s PC game this would be some Morning Show kind of story about how Sonny abused that power. But it’s not. And this game makes no sense. But, I would send OSHA in to figure out what the fuck the plot of this game was. 10/10
LIE: Literally has a set with actual lava and actual handcuffs and actual puzzles you have to solve to get off of the set??? 100/10 call the police too 
SEA: Really not sure who’s all working for who here (like I think we’re working for Dagny AND Magnus technically since they’re in a partnership and Dagny hired us) but I can’t remember anything much more dangerous than general sea-faring hazards and if we were Nancy we probably would’ve had adequate education or training to take care of ourselves. 3/10
MID: I don’t know why a passageway in the cemetery leads to the courthouse bathroom, but that aside most things seem to meet similar standards to ASH. The ergot poisoning is weird but doesn’t seem to be tied to a specific employer. 1/10

Then, bet y'all won't see this coming, we're gonna find a box filled with naughty things😱😱😱 After that, we get to work and all that can be registered is the feeling of our partner's soft lips and how their hands caress our body in every place possible and then after a while we both reach our climax at the same time. Then our partner says they love us blah blah blah, we get some text about what's happening tomorrow and it's prolly the baby challenge or something equally stupid and ridiculous, and then we cuddle up and go to bed.
• If everything I just said is in next week's hideaway scene, everyone who likes this post owes me $10. I'm just playing, we all know everything I said is definitely happening. Keep your money💖

I’ve just checked your rules and the request post you made with all the quotes so I was wondering if you could write a party poison x reader with the prompts- ‘How long have you been covering this’ and ‘If I survive can I go home’. I was thinking the fic could go like, they find the hurt reader and take them to the diner but they’re stubborn and want to go home and they have an injury that they discover later on and then hopefully the reader stays with them. Or not, you can take it in whichever direction you want, I just thought that’d be a suitable story for it :)
genre: fluff to angst and back to fluff
Pairing: Party Poison x unspecified! reader,
Pov: Party Poison
Title: Define Home
Killjoy Name Used: Sky Hawk (feel free to replace if you want) 
Note: I took the prompts, slightly different story then you asked for.
Tumblr media
It happened super quickly. Someone, just outside of the diner, took out nine or ten draculoids on their own. I reached for my gun, but the last draculoid had fallen before I even stepped outside. I wanted to speak, asked who taught them to shoot, but my voice betrayed me. Though the look on my face must have given it away.
“I’m Sky Hawk, from a small group of Killjoys next to the wall,” they pointed in the direction of Battery city, “the Animalistic Killjoys.”
“Party Poison, I’m the leader of the Fabulous Killjoys” I reached to shake their hand, “how’d you end up out here?”
“Was on a part run, my brother’s bike broke and needed a gasket,” they leaned against their own bike, “ran into these guys and got chased all the way out here, which zone is this?”
“Thirteen.”
“Holy shit,” they let out a dry laugh, “oh man, Snakeskin is gonna kill me.”
“Listen, Killjoys are meant to help each other,” I shifted on my feet, “why not stay a while, your bike looks pretty roughed up, my brother could fix it for you.”
“I can’t ask you to do that,” they took a shaky breath in.
“I insist, come in,” I motioned them to come inside, surprised when they did.
A little over a week later and it had already felt like Sky Hawk was one of us. And though I would never say it out loud, I found them attractive. They were tough, resilient, and actually listened to me. The boys got along with them great too, Kobra was happy to have something to work on, Jet was glad they were able to contain their stupid, that they only let out when Ghoul was around.
“Hey! I know you’re in there! I see your bike!” I loud booming voice was followed by pounding on the door.
“That would be my brother, took him long enough to come looking,” they rolled their eyes, “You could also peak in through the window dipshit!”
He threw open the door and grabbed Sky Hawk by the wrist.
“We have been looking for you for 24 hours! You scared us shitless!” My face twisted at his statement.
“Only 24 hours?” I growled lowly, not letting him walk out the door with what I would consider a new member of our team at this point.
“That’s all they’ve been gone,” Hawk’s brother raised an eyebrow.
“They’ve been here for the past week and a half,” My anger grew every second that the man in front of me struggled to find an excuse.
“He’s never paid much attention to me, it’s fine,” Hawk defended him.
“No, the fuck it isn’t,” Jet stood quickly, his height easily freaking the brother out.
“Fine, then what do I tell Snakeskin?” Hawk’s brother raised his voice.
“Tell her I’m not an animalistic anymore, I’m part of the fabulous,” they snapped, “now let me go.”
He left, stomping his feet and slamming the door. I sighed, almost missing the way Sky Hawk clutched their side and limped back to where they were sitting.
“How long have you been covering this?” I wasn’t even aware that I was the one speaking until Hawk froze and everyone else looked at me funny.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” they murmured.
“Lift your shirt then,” they knew they were stuck, lifting their shirt just enough to show a bullet wound, it had scabbed over, but looked severely infected. It was dead silent for a few moments.
“Kobra, Ghoul, leave the room, Jet, I trust you to fix this,” I attempted to keep my face stoic, trying to ignore the drop in my stomach.
Jet nodded as I followed the other two men out of the room.
“It kills you doesn’t it,” my brother whispered, catching ghoul’s attention anyway.
“What do you mean?” I grit my teeth.
“Seeing someone you care for so deeply be hurt so badly and they didn’t tell you,” he elaborated, “you’ve never been good at keeping yourself from falling hard.”
A little while later, Jet came and got me from my room.
“They want to talk to you,” was all he said before walking out. I slowly made my way to the room we had set up for them.
“Hey,” their eyes were red, “’m sorry I didn’t tell ya.”
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Because I wanted to go home, but,” they let out a sharp breath, “clearly they didn’t care, and then you guys did and-”
“Hey, it’s-” I reached for them, backing out last second, “you’re okay, just, tell me next time you’re hurt.”
I didn’t realise how close I was to them until they reached for my hand.
“Please stay with me,” they weren’t looking at me, but I nodded anyway, sitting next to them on their bed. They leaned into me carefully and squeezed their eyes shut. Not taking long before falling asleep.

ANYWAYS LESS SERIOUS THINGS
GUYS THE NEW HOG REWORK IS SOOOO COOL YIPPEE ITS GONNA BE SO FUN
Okay I can’t say for sure it’s gonna be perfect BUT I think it will be AND also I’ll give my full review after playing him tomorrow but so far here’s my thoughts as ROADHOG HIMSELF
Click that button mate ⤵️⤵️
My thoughts on the gun:
I wish it was mixed not just projectile. Like half hitscan half projectile but it’s not TOO bad
My thoughts on take a breather:
This is such a better way of handling take a breather then before- but a few complaints specifically that cyx also brought up.
1. You can’t tank dva bomb anymore. Which is gonna be annoying and honestly kinda just isn’t lore accurate to roadhog. He survived the omnium blowing up but can’t survive dva bomb 🤨 but it’s not too big of a deal
2. The recharge time is 12 seconds which is literally so long holy shit. An idea on how to fix that: Maybe if you deal damage it could go up faster? Idk it would be cool
My thoughts on hook being unchanged:
Perfect. I’m so glad they didn’t
My thoughts on ult being unchanged:
Idrc tbh hogs alt can either be completely useless or game saving it’s really hit or miss and in general I think keeping it was a good call
My thoughts on pig pen:
This isn’t what I was expecting at all but tbh, it sounds great! It’s gonna really help make him someone to be feared again. Im really curious on how you will be able to combo his hook and pigpen. I think it’s genuinely really really exciting. And I think it also helps bring his identity closer into his relationship with junkrat because now they literally have matching moves how cute is that?? Yeah
My thoughts on community reaction:
Some people hate it some love it and that’s okay. I understand a lot of the talk on both sides. Except two arguments against it that I’m gonna unpack
1. “Now roadhog is gonna be op!!” Yeah about time!! Do you know how long it’s been since he has been good? It’s been too long. Now he’ll actually have a chance against his counters which before playing against an Ana or Orisa could be game ruining for hog mains especially people trying to get into the character
Honestly I thought I was a good hog already but with this rework people gonna fear me >:)
2. “This isn’t even a rework just gave him a new ability!!” What? Okay so just because they kept two abilities the same it’s not a rework? They changed two of his things significantly (gun and take a breather) and gave him a new ability. That is a rework of I’ve ever seen one, but I mean okay?
Final thoughts before I get to play it,
Prepare for your worst nightmare. The hog mains are back!!!

𝐒𝐭 𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 - 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟏𝟎
Pairings: Kirk/Lars, Kirk/James
TW: drugs
Sorry it’s such a short chapter. I promise the next one will be longer
You can also read it here
“Holy shit. What happened to you?”
James is just staring at him, and Kirk shrugs, shifting uncomfortably.
“Got into a fight with Dave.”
Well, at least, it would’ve been a fight if he’d been able to fight back. James just cringes, hands stuffed into his pockets.
They’ve not talked since prom, and even longer before that, and Kirk doesn’t know if he really wants to talk to him again.
He misses James a lot, but he doesn’t want to backpedal. He’s just gaining Lars’s trust back.
Kirk grabs his bag, goes to stand, pushing through the nausea that washes over him.
“I’m just leaving,” he mumbles, but James shakes his head, stepping forwards.
“I think you need to sit down,” James says, concern etched on his face, and Kirk can’t help but sag down into his chair, mostly because holding himself up right now seems like too great of a challenge.
“I don’t want to speak to you,” he says, not meeting James’s eyes.
James just sighs, bringing a chair up to sit opposite Kirk.
“I’m sorry,” he starts, his voice thick and heavy, and when Kirk looks up, James’s eyes are wet and red.
“I’m sorry for everything I put you through.”
Kirk wants to forgive and forget, but he doesn’t think he can. Doesn’t even know what he’ll do if they do make up. Would they still be able to be friends?
“I know that doesn’t make it better. But I-…” James pauses, sniffing as he looks up, obviously trying to suppress the tears that are beginning to trail down his cheeks.
“I’m just so fucking sorry, man.”
Kirk watches him for a moment as James tries to gather himself but fails, a sob escaping his lips, and he brings his hand to his mouth, embarrassment making the tips of his ears burn.
Kirk can’t help but reach over, try and soothe him a little, rubbing his back gently.
“I’m not gonna say I forgive you,” Kirk says, voice soft but firm. “But I will. Just not right now.”
James nods, head vigorously bopping up and down, rubbing at his eyes with the heel of his palm.
“Is there anything I can do to make this better?”
Kirk blinks, pauses, because he doesn’t really know what to say. Time will be the only way to fix this, and he doesn’t think James forcing it will make it better.
“I could speak to Dave? Try and get him to stop picking on you?”
Kirk snorts a quiet laugh at that, his hand falling from James’s back, watching as James’s face contorts into confusion.
“Too late for that,” he says, sighing inwardly.
James sniffles, tilting his head. “What? Why?”
“I don’t-“ Kirk starts, shaking his head as he leans forward to rest his aching hand on the table. “He’s already making me do things for him. I can’t risk him beating me up this bad again.”
James frowns, wiping at his nose.
“What do you mean?”
Kirk sucks in a breath, deliberately whether to tell James or not. It’s not like James will be able to do anything anyways.
James is staring at him all wide eyed though, gaze imploring, and Kirk can’t help but nod to his bag.
“Look in the zip pocket.”
James’s frown deepens but he does what Kirk says, unzipping the pocket to find all the drugs Dave had given him.
“What? He’s getting you to deal?”
Kirk just shrugs because it’s not like he has a choice.
James zips his bag back up, jaw set.
“He shouldn’t be making you do that.”
Kirk gives a forced laugh, resting back in his chair.
“It’s either that or I lose a finger. Or worse.”
“You can’t let him do this.”
“I don’t have a choice,” Kirk warned, voice raised causing a few people to shush him from amongst the shelves. He scrubs a hand over his face unthinkingly, flinching at the pain it inflicts on his bruised skin.
“Please,” James begs, voice low, leaning forwards, planting his elbows on the table between them. “Please don’t get involved with this.”
“You don’t get to tell me what to do, James,” Kirk retorts, picking at the foam of his sling. “And besides, I told you there’s no other way. I’ll just have to be careful.”
James sighs heavily, his chest rising and falling, scrubbing a hand through blonde hair.
“I’m sorry.”
“Don’t-“ Kirk starts, holding his hand up, breath heavy as he tries to hold in a sob. “Don’t fucking apologise. It’s not anyone’s fault but mine.”
James eyes watch him closely, and Kirk sits back a little, changes the subject.
“Why are you in here anyway?”
James ducks, rubbing at his cheek.
“My English teacher told me I’m failing and one of the ways to catch up was to read a book.”
“And?” Kirk asks, raising an eyebrow.
“And there’s no fucking good books in here.”
Kirk laughs at that, though it doesn’t nothing to loosen the knot in his chest.
The bell sounds from above them.
“Don’t you have class?” Kirk says when James doesn’t move. James just shakes his head.
“I don’t think you should be alone right now.”
The concern in James’s voice stops Kirk from rolling his eyes, and he instead exhales shakily.
“I already text Lars. He’ll be here in a minute.”
James nods, and although he looks like he might burst into tears again he seems to have composed himself.
“Promise me, you’ll tell me if things get worse.”
Kirk wants to tell him no, that he doesn’t owe him anything, but James looks sincere, a little desperate, and Kirk’s heart sinks.
“Okay.”
James nods, sniffing loudly to stop the snot dripping from his face, standing up. He gives Kirk one last smile before he turns.
Kirk watches James go, looking up just in time to see James pass Lars, who looks back at Kirk alarmed.
“What’s up with him?” Lars asks as he plops down in the seat next to Kirk.
“He was grovelling,” Kirk replies, hissing at the pain in his finger as he turns.
“He apologised?”
Kirk nods, the full ache in his head getting worse now that he feels less on edge.
“Are you okay?” Lars asks, leaning forwards to bring Kirk into his arms. Kirk goes willingly, burying himself against Lars’s chest, no caring how much it hurts his hand.
“I want to go home.”
Lars nods against him, stroking over the crown of his head softly before kissing his forehead.
“Yeah. We can do that.”

Cky Gets Jobs
warnings: Swearing
Summary: Raab and Dico work at a retail store for the day.
Tumblr media
Work was going by as slow as ever. Not too many customers were in the store and the clothes were as neat as possible. There was nothing to do besides walk around and greet anyone who walked by and to touch up whats already been fixed a thousand times.
Y/n walked toward the cash register dragging their feet. “Its only been two hours!” Their coworker laughed and hung up a few hangers on the rack behind them “At least your break is right now I still have another hour”
“That’s true” They said before wandering to the break room. For the next fifteen minutes Y/n sat down and read a magazine, drinking from their cup of water every so often. It was a enjoyable break.
When they got back there was commotion in the store. Two guys were talking and laughing loudly with the manager. Y/n only caught every other word because they were still too far away. It sounded like they wanted a job.
“Y/n!” The manager called them over. Slightly embarrassed they walked up to them and asked what was going on. Of course recognizing them almost immediately. The manager explained that these guys were gonna work for a day or two for the show they were on and they needed extra cash for the heating bill. Y/n stood there wondering why this involved them and quickly found out when they were told to “show them the ropes”
“Im Dico” He stuck out his hand. “Y/n” They replied shaking his hand.
“I’m Raab” He awkwardly waved. Dico looked down and shook his head before asked what they’re supposed to do first.
“I guess just help me fix any hangars and put these clothes on the racks away” It was what was normally done and they definitely needed the extra hands.
The manager went back to the back room to do some paperwork and thats when the boys started acting out. Raab ran around the entire store running his fingers through the clothes, dropping some every few steps. Dico would sneak up behind customers and talk loudly into their ear startling them.
“Oh my God! Can you guys act like normal people?!” Y/n was freaked out because they knew they’d have to pick up the mess.
“No” Raab said simply before running around the store again like a kid.
When the racks were finished and the clothes were all hung up neatly, the manager asked Dico if he could help move some crates in the back. His eyes widened slightly and he nodded his head. Raab followed them into the back to watch.
Dico was introduced to the little machine that moved the crates of clothes and he immediately fell in love with it. His mind starting racing and he thought of about a million hilarious things to do with this machine.
“Alright! Ya think you can handle that?” The manager asked him. Apparently he had explained what to do but Dico and Raab didnt listen to a single thing that was said.
“Yeah absolutely” Dico answered. With that the manager walked away and left him to it.
“Raab stand on one of the legs and ill lift you up” He talked quietly. Raab held in his laugh and did it. Dico put the key in the machine and turned it on. It was pretty simple to use the lift could only go in two directions. Dico moved the stick up and Raab started to go in the air. “Holy shit!”
They both took turns using the lifter and messing around with it. As they played with it Dico got the genius idea to take it out to the front of the store with Raab sitting on one of the legs.
As he drove it to the front and through the backdoors surprisingly unsuspected, he raised Raab higher. Customers looked at them in total shock. When Y/n and their coworker noticed their jaws were on the floor. Raab sat there waving like a princess on a float driving through a parade. His smile was wide and he looked like he was enjoying every second of this.
Everything was going great until the manager walked out and saw it all, plus the camera footage from earlier. “Get the fuck out of here!” It was so rare to see them so mad but It was completely valid.
Before getting thrown out Dico walked over to Y/ n handing them a small piece of paper, “Hope I didnt scare you off. Call me sometime”
And of course, Y/n did.

For those of us who have seen Thor: Love and Thunder… (it was so freakin good!) Spoilers ahead!!! ⚠️
Tumblr media
• That opening scene after the daughter died and Gorr finds his god only to realize he was a collosal ass was actually so hard to watch- like this dude really just told you his people all died after worshipping you and you wanna laugh and throw shit at him 🙂
• Y’all. I finally get what you mean when you fawn over Thor, ‘cause man was looking FINE with his new look in the beginning of this movie. Like, yeah obviously I could look at him and see mans was attractive but this was the first time bro was actually doin it for me. 😂 Only other people who’ve managed to do that are Bucky and Marc (I’m asexual y’all sometimes I’m just slow to it lmao)
• Seeing the Guardians again was actually so nice. Made me realize how long it’s been since we’ve seen them with all the other post-endgame movies that have come out. Seeing Quill and Thor being friends was actually really nice. Was definitely expecting the competitiveness still bc of the trailer but Quill was even a fan of Thor’s whole act so I call that growth 😂
• Loved seeing my girl Darcy/Kat way too much and that’s probably because I just finished watching 2 Broke Girls. Character’s just so underrated and I want to see her Monica and Woo all back together. But omg I don’t think she even got to say goodbye to Jane 🥺
• The way I thought it was out of five stages of cancer and not four, it just made sense to me
• The first two minutes of Jane’s intro were already more interesting to me than anything she’s ever done in the first two movies. Not exactly a Jane hater am I, but I definitely didn’t think she was interesting enough on her own let alone to be Thor God of Thunder’s love interest (although I found the first two Thor movies incredibly boring too so maybe it’s their fault and not hers 😬) but I feel they definitely fixed that with this movie
• Actually loving them calling her King Valkyrie because yes it’s like making girl boss moves playing chess not checkers
• Jane’s move of splitting up the broken pieces of Mjolnir to attack multiple people at once is so badass???
• Sooooo NOW y’all wanna make me ship Jane and Thor?! Had three movies to do it before and gave me less than 0%. Why couldn’t they show us a glimpse of any of these flashbacks then 🤡
• The personification of Mjolnir and Stormbreaker were really a nice touch. Mjolnir actually heeding Thor’s wish when he asked it to protects her is pretty sweet and adorable
• Thor really has a thing with people copying his look. “I see you’ve copied the beard.” // “You’re wearing my look.”
• My God when he leveled up his armor with all those bright colors after he saw Jane’s he looked like a freakin Transformer to me
• Thor is not as skilled in giving inspirational speeches as ol’ Stevie was and I admire him for always trying and knowing that’s enough 🥹
• Jane and Valkyrie are actually extremely adorable and I love them, she’s like her goddess mentor
• “Eat my hammer” is giving… “get a face full of my hammer” and I’m down with it the way she delivers it lmao
• It’s the way I should’ve expected to see Thor/Hemsworth buns uncensored in this movie and I didn’t 😂 was completely surprised when my mom actually laughed at the women fainting she’s so conservative
• YES VALKYRIE WIELDING THAT LIGHTNING BOLT LIKE A QUEEN
• Okay Jane has such a flourish to her fighting movements and I freaking love it
• Jane actually staying in the hospital to let Thor take the reigns going forward was such satisfying character growth
• Holy crap the gifs y’all make of this movie are gonna look great- that rainbow bridge shot when the goats crash through the ceiling and the extension of Thor’s powers to the kids making a tree were so cool
• Did the wish granting space person thingy look like The Watcher to anyone?
• I’m really glad they had Gorr make the right decision to bring his daughter back. I thought it was gonna be the type of situation where when they break his sword he would stop being corrupted. Still not clear on why he was dying in the first place tho
• Thor having a DAUGHTER?! SO STINKIN CUTE AND PUREEEE 😭 Idk if y’all comic readers already knew about this but I never would’ve guessed that was where the movie would end up. (For X-Men lovers I went home and watched Logan right after that too so my heart’s been through the Daddy-Daughter ringer 🥺)
• My moments of realizing why it’s called Love and Thunder and why they kept using the song Sweet Child O’ Mine shown through emojis: 😯😱🙊🥺🥹
• Hercules?! Hell yeah
• I was hoping my good sis would make it into Valhalla with the died-of-cancer/saved-all-of-god-kind card. Certainly was nice seeing Heimdall again
That’s everything I remember off the top of my head but this really was such an exciting, funny and hilarious two hours of entertainment. Definitely see it in theatres if you can guys 🧡

Agree with the prev anon ask about your S4 prediction of Roman dying, new fear unlocked
But also, it makes sense in a way I haven’t considered before and like we all know that Logan is gonna have to kick the bucket at some point (likely at the end of the series), right? But it’d be a very Succ thing to do to flip the switch and make a kid die first, that’d be a shock for us as well as for Logan himself - he isn’t prepared to bury his child and maybe that would set in motion some interesting changes (not saying redemption or anything but more like him realising that the kids can die/get hurt), especially if he was somehow responsible for the death, and then maybe unsuccessfully scrambling to fix some stuff before he dies himself? Idk, just brain go brrr
Can’t wait for S4, but holy shit I hope your prediction is wrong, the sibs deserve a not-100%-depressing ending
THANK YOU for sending me this because you've touched on thoughts i've been discussing in my dms and have wanted to share.
First of all, EXACTLY. It is a very succ thing to do to take the obvious choice for a character death (Logan) and flip it on its head.
Second of all, I completely agree with you that this would be a massive shock for Logan and I think it could be very interesting for his character. Losing a child is - it changes a person, i think. Not to get too personal, but one of my first memories is of my aunt dying. I’m not exaggerating when I say I think her death caused my grandfather to die five years later. Up until then, he was ridiculously active: climbing mountains every weekend, swimming laps in the ocean every morning. And then she died, and his health just deteriorated so rapidly. Grief is all consuming - it permeates your whole being - and I think, in that way, it makes for a really great narrative arc and provides a really great chance for characters to develop.
(more under the cut bc this got quite long)
I don’t think Logan would ever be responsible for one of the kid’s deaths in a direct sense - BUT now you’ve got me thinking. In season 1, he triggers Kendall’s relapse. In season 2, he sends Roman to Turkey where Roman gets put in that hostage situation. Consequences from the outside world can’t really touch the Roy kids when Logan protects them - e.g., Roman’s rocket launch didn’t kill anyone, but Kendall’s car accident killed the waiter (Kendall was on the outs with Logan whereas Roman was not). Yet, when Logan has a hand in it, consequences do touch the kids - admittedly, they’re consequences Logan ends up ‘protecting’ them from (e.g. he sends kendall to rehab and he gets roman out of the hostage situation safely) but they are still consequences he had a hand in creating. 
So, yeah.. I can imagine Logan having a hand in it and then having to confront the fact that he had a hand in it. And that WOULD be so interesting for three reasons.
First, Logan actually really does care about his kids. The only time imo that we see real human emotion from him is when he thinks one of his kids is in physical danger. E.g. in safe room, he is clearly very worried about kendall; in the therapy episode he does seem genuinely affected when kendall calls roman and it’s apparent that he’s relapsed (ofc Logan and Kendall have that fight later but I think that anger (albeit unhelpful) makes sense as Logan’s reaction to a) Kendall relapsing and b) Logan’s own actions triggering this (although he would never take responsibility for this)); when roman is in the hostage situation, it is also obvious that this affects Logan.
Second, I think Logan has a certain way he perceives himself. I don’t think he perceives himself as an abuser. I think he compares himself with his uncle and is able to write off anything he’s ever done as paling in comparison. I think when he does physically abuse the kids, he is extremely uncomfortable with having to confront his similarity with his uncle - e.g., when he tries to get Roman to rewrite what happened in argestes and assure him that it wasn’t that bad and he didn’t even make contact. He wants to be able to maintain the perception of himself as the protector, not the abuser - as importantly different from his uncle. His actions being a factor in the death of one of his kids would cause a serious fracture in his perception of himself (especially if his uncle had anything to do with the death of Rose).
Third, this all kind of builds towards a point I’ve been wanting to make for a while. You see a lot of discourse on here about how Logan throws his kids under the bus because NRPI and Logan would let anything happen to them (even when they were kids) because NRPI and I think that’s kind of a blatant misreading of his character. On the contrary, I think the only time Logan considers a real person to be involved is when it’s one of his kids - his family. Sure, a lot of the time he harms them for his own benefit in business but when there’s real (physical, not emotional) consequences for them, he is genuinely upset. Consequences aren’t meant to touch them. They’re meant to be safe inside the playground he built for them. Logan, i think, sees his role as a father as a protector and a provider. Harm coming to his kids (again, in the physical sense) is the ultimate failure for him.

i was talking to this person who i can now like comfortably call my friend today who works at the food pantry i volunteer at and i brought up my old toy restoration hobby and she’s gonna bring in this thing she found at goodwill that kinda blows my mind honestly

so she’s called talking mother goose, the one she has doesn’t have the bonnet but like.  precious regardless holy shit.  she’s like this animatronic goose with a little space for a cassette tape and the idea is she would like come with books or something and she’d read aloud to kids and honk when it was time to turn the page so they could follow along and yeah um also she can turn her neck and blink her eyes and move her beak and like sing and the beak seems to like.. synchronize pretty impressively with the words she’s saying or songs she’s singing????  
like ok the restoration process is gonna be interesting because i’m basically walking into a thick fog here as this certainly doesn’t have a like Cult Online Following like the other stuff i like to fix but like.. yeah.  i don’t remember if she said the eyes or the beak were the problem but i’m like....if i can skin a furby clean it thoroughly clean it inside and out get into the mechanics and start its motor manually like fuckin frankenstein or something (it’s aliveee!!!) i’m sure something from 12 years prior should be manageable even though much more digging is gonna have to happen to figure it out perfectly.  she has the original cassette tape apparently and to my understanding it works (which is great because i definitely do NOT know how to fix a cassette player and better yet im terrified of fucking up cassettes) but like.  i think the thing i really wanna know is what would happen if like you put a different cassette in there.  like.. it’d have to play but would she go through the same movements as the original tape, like how exactly is it all like.. synchronized..???  this is like really really fascinating to me and i’m very very excited to take this on hehe

If you're taking more questions I'm very happy to keep asking :3 I love the sound of all these characters, I want to know everything about them. Anyway Byron: 10, 19, 27, Bellamy: 57, 59, 65, Silas: 14, 33, 68
i will happily take more questions!! answers are under the cut again for convenience. :D
10: how often do they lie? what situations cause them to be dishonest? oh, Byron lies All The Fucking Time. he likes to pretend to be just a normal tavern keeper, but he’s secretly a warlock who has to sacrifice people every new moon to stay alive, and so he sacrifices those who are hurting other in order to try to protect those who need it and justify his own continued existence that comes at the expense of others’ suffering……. yeah you can imagine there are a LOT of situations where I had to roll deception lol. the party didn’t even know he had magic, much less that he was a warlock, until several sessions in. wild times.
19: what haunts them? what doesn't? for Byron, it’s every time he fails to save or protect someone. especially the time he failed his little brother. he’s also quite literally haunted by noneuclidean horrors sent by a cthulu of chains, so. yeah he doesn’t sleep. what doesn’t haunt him… honestly great question. I think there are quite a few kills he’s made that don’t haunt him at all. men who took advantage of vulnerable people in Byron’s own tavern, those who dehumanized others, parents who hurt their children… yeah there are some folks he does not regret killing at all.
27: how do they mourn? on Sai, where Byron is originally from, every month is named after a god, and the month you’re born in is the god you’re sacred to. Byron’s little brother was born in the month of the moon. and while Byron isn’t religious at all, he keeps a candle to the moon burning somewhere in his tavern at all times. because to him, his brother is more sacred than all the gods.
57: what makes them angry? augh so much. Bellamy really struggles with his temper, he’s impulsive, he’s a fighter, he throws himself into life fists first. he’s getting better, but a sure fire way to set him off is always to threaten or shit talk his friends.
59: what is a quiet passion of theirs? Bellamy loves plants and flowers. he taught himself druidcraft, and he loves to make things grow.
65: what is holding them back? yknow, Bellamy needs to forgive himself for being him. he knows he’s too much, he knows his impulsiveness does nothing but cause problems, he was sent to Strixhaven in the hopes that college would fix him… but he really needs to accept that he has those flaws and let his guard down and be okay with people seeing him and supporting him. because as is, he goes out of his way to hide things from people and sacrifice himself, and it’s stifling him and doing nobody any good. he needs to accept that he’s fundamentally a teenager, and that’s going to mean being clumsy and making mistakes, and that’s okay, that’s normal. so I guess his perfectionism is what’s holding him back in the end.
14: what is something they love about themself? hm. love is a strong word. but Silas highly values his own dedication, his strength, his dogged determination, his investigative capabilities… everything that makes him useful and effective.
33: what makes them cry? loneliness. silently at night into his pillow.
(also this hasn’t happened yet, but my friend playing Thespa has said that next time Silas is threatened in combat, Thespa’s gonna yell “Stay away from my kid!!�� which. oh my god Silas will so cry. because he’s not used to people protecting him—because Thespa’s the one he’s been sent on a holy mission to betray and destroy—he’s gonna CRY from the mixed up intensity of it all. and my friend doesn’t KNOW silas is gonna betray thespa and I’m gonna SCREAM if i can’t TELL anybody SOON oh my GOD)
68: what was the best moment of their life? Silas used to just be a kid on the streets. but one day, he came across a monster his mind couldn’t even begin to comprehend, and he jumped in to help a stranger slay it without a second thought. and after the battle, that stranger took his hood off and offered the now bloodstained child Silas a job. a purpose. a mission. a place to belong. that stranger became his handler, and Silas became an angel sent into the myriad planes of this world for a reason. that was the best moment of his life.
thank you for enabling my blorbo posting!!!! i love my ttrpg boys!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA ONCE AGAJN FANTASTIC CHAPTER!!! SATAN KING THANK YOU FOR PULLING THROUGH AND REMEMBERING. holy shit this chapter was so good and so painful. Iks state is just so heartbreaking to read about, poor thing is really (understandably) going through it. Im so glad she at least has Satan to help her feel safe, and purgatory hall too!! i cant wait to see more of their interactions as Ik stays with them, the comfort is going to be so good. Once again Barbatos future vision is explored in such a unique way, I like how you made it so it wasn’t all powerful completely, theres still room for the unexpected. i think any future vision character makes planning dramatic events really hard, because theres always the question of why didn’t they just stop it, so I really like the way your handling it. But speaking of barbatos, man is nit even trying to fix his mistakes 😡 like cmon man at least send a gift basket. Also the brothers who all forgot, im interested to see if mammon is gonna get his memory back, out of all the ones left I definitely see him fighting for Ik. And i wonder if Satans chat with good ol luci is gonna jog his memory. Overall another fantastic and thrilling chapter, your work is always a delight. Keep up the great work and have a fantastic day and a fantastic summer season!!!
-🍄
i read the words ‘gift basket’, and for some reason my mind immediately went to ‘exotic butters’,,, imagine barbatos trying to apologise with THAT, i’d totally write it if i wasn’t taking this arc seriously
and i have the same problem with prophet characters in general, which is why barbatos in jtta takes such a dramatic turn from what he’s like in canon (which is just kind of ‘yeah i got time powers and no i’m not going to elaborate’) - glad that you seem to be enjoying it!! ^^

“No! No I don’t want to go back! Bad stuff always happens there! No!” Odette yells, completely upset once more, holding tightly to Taren’s fur in the hope no one would grab her
Taren whines, trying to nose her in comfort while Evan pushes himself up with great effort “We do need some stuff-“
“No!!!”
“How about they stay at my place?” Mary suggests, gesturing “Me and Felix are renting at the local hotel, not far from here. I’m sure we can fix another room for a day or two. Our jobs here aren’t done yet”
“And here I thought I was gonna finally get a vacay” Felix jokes, snickering as Mary chuckles “But yeah. Beds free, and let me tell you mattress quality? Reallllyyyy makes a difference, holy shit” he says, cracking his back for emphasis
Evan glances at Odette with sleepy eyes, biting his lip “You okay with that? Stay here, for a night?”
Don’t run off, please
Odette fiddles, before nodding “Can raccoony come too? Raccoony is cool” they say, making Evan snort lightly
“I don’t think Raccoons can go on planes” he says, smiling tiredly as Odette pouts but relents
"I can tell Yellow where you guys are staying and he can join you." Bing looks at Felix and Mary. "That okay? Yellow is an android with a magic soul."

I really like that they put actual warnings before the episode starts, thank you for that, The Boys
HELP MOVE THE BODY, HUGHIE

So what you’re saying is…. You’re a mechenary? FucK HE ISNT DEAD.
Hughie: Thank fuck he’s alive
Me: FUCK NO HES ALIVE
Pls don’t tell me they gotta kill him again?? They’re gonna torture him?? Oh no, they totally are, aren’t they?
Oh. Oh, she is… wow. Hi
Of course he owes this weird dude money, you can’t just be a normal weirdly supes obsessed badass, can you Butch?
Chipped???? What in the world- ok fine. I’ll just accept it for now
The A-train is…. something, huh. Oh. Oh man. This is awkward. Oh so awkward. Cancer and kids. This is…. great. They’re really scripting this guy? Well I understand why
They won’t like you, sweetheart, you actually wanna help people. “And that is why we love you” you are absolutely disgusting, lady, that is creepy. So she’s gotta patrol with her rapist? Oh joy

He did say it was far fetched, right??

Finding You Pt.3
It’s always been funny to me, how often we easily spot things once we’re aware of them. Turns out that guy actually lives in my apartment building. I’ve seen him walking in from what ever he does during the day. (Y’know other than giving random girls heart attacks, because seriously, there’s no way he just naturally looks that good.) i even wave to the guy sometimes. And of course, he always waved back. But I never truly stop and hold a conversation.
Not because I don’t want to! Just because, knowing my history with guys in general, I’m not gonna do too great. I barely remember what I said last time, I just knos it was for sure, embarrassing af. Lucky me, it’s starting to go into ( Season) so I have a little big more time, and I finally found another job. As I’m walking into my apartment building, I yawn a little, cclosing my eyes and shivering a bit. As expected, I forgot my jacket, so I shivered a little. Despite the cold. When I opened my eyes, and I spotted the boy again. My hand raised in greeting, but I swear I didn’t tell it to.
But he waved back.
Maybe I didn’t actually screw this up really bad. But he’s walking over…why is he walking over…? He’s-Why is he-
“Hey there.” He said, smiling my panicked face. Well, probably not my panicked face, I just need to act natural, because-
“holy shit, this is the dumbest I have ever acted.” I groaned internally. I tried to fix my dace, in turn making it so much worse. “Hi. How are you doing? What are you up to?” I asked, digging myself into a conversation I wasn’t prepared to engage in. “What am I doing with my life?!?” I shouted internally, trying to keep a smile on my face.
“Oh, I just went on a walk, that’s all. Y’know I kinda needed the fresh air. Oxygen.” He said, nodding, and offering a shy smile.
“oh yes, oxygen. Very important to life.” She teased. And he snorted, before covering his mouth. And I laughed auietly, rubbing my arm.
“Why have we not talked other than the accidental meet ups?” He asked, a hint of a smile on his face.
“Yeah, it’s weird, isn’t it. I’d think we would’ve at least exchanged numbers.” I joked. It went quiet for a second, and a smile crept onto his face. I swear my heart skipped a beat. “Oh my gosh, shut it, heart!” I yelled at the organ that was currently keeping me alive, but now that I think about it, that was probably a bad idea on my part.
“Well, Why don’t we? I mean, i’ve only had like, two conversations with you, but I mean, why not?” He shrugged, and a grin made its way onto my face. Noddingz
“yeah… Yeah, Why not?” I went into the contacts app, and smiled at the man while we traded phones almost with the ease of a customer to a cashier. Without much thought. Just that simple.
When we passed the phones back I laughed at the contact name, raising my eyes to meet his. And I felt this weird… connection. As if we were meant to meet. Maybe not now, but definitely at some point during out lives.
“Alright then, see you grocery girl.” I rolled my eyes. A little chuckle spilling out my lips.
“Yeah, see ya” I responded.
“Whoa, what’s with that goofy smile?” Alexei asked, a knowing grin on his face. I shook my head, trying to wipe the smile off my face. “No! Don’t just shake this off, you are straight-up cheesin’ right now, what’s up? Did Walmart Wonka come back or something?” That one shook me out of the happy buzzing that was fuzzing up my head right now.
“Nope. Not Walmart Wonka…” I answered, smiling at my best friend. “Someone else. Entirely.” I thought, soon shaking off those thoughts, and putting on a smile. “Anyway, I have a class to go teach!” I marched over to the line of doors, ready for whatever was ahead.
“Alright, now rond de jambe back, and lift your leg up into an attitude.” I watched my leg in the mirror, trying to make sure my technique was good, and wanting to teach the students correctly. I looked over to Alexei, and he seng a thumbs up my way. “Alright, now just glide into first position…” i trailed, making sure everyone had caught up. “And that’s it! Class is done, you all did amazing, and I’ll see you all next week” i smiled, waving to the girls as their rides picked them up.
“Hey teach!” A girl called, running up to me, and wrapping herself around my legs. I looked down in surprise, patting tje girl’s back. “Thank you for today’s lesson!” She thanked, letting go, of my legs. She waved enthusiastically, grabbing her sparkly backpack, and running out of the classroom. Soon after I felt a familiar pressure on my shoulder, and blinked, bewildered.
“What was that?” I asked, looking at my best friend.
“That was your first teacher moment!” He slapped my back, grinning like a clown. “Congrats! Now, call Walmart Wonka. He’s been bothering me about this plan of his for far too long now.” Alexei prodded.
“Wait, no, what's a teacher moment?” I asked. I was already confused enough.
“a moment where you know you’ve made an impact. And it’s always a fun moment. Like when you asked me about that turn in our first year of knowing esch otjer. That was my teacher moment.” He explained, cleaning his nails. “Now call Walmart Wonks. We both know if you don’t call he’ll call you.” My phone started buzzing in my hand, and I blinked.
“Speak of the devil.” I answered. “that is just like you.” I thought, swiping the green phone symbol.
“Hey Satori. What’s up?” I spoke into the phone. Knowing him, if not informative, this would at least be interesting.
