FINISHED the little concept doodle of some fishing event alts for fgo heres some quick design notes + some things id like for their units kits
overall i wanted to try and keep their color pallets intact for these just because im super bad at making those myself
ARJUNA
he is a caster because he is casting :)
yes, his fishing rod is gandiva
YES, his pants are those zipper pants that you can detach into shorts. he’s prepared for anything!
YES! his sunglasses are super expensive, super strongly tinted high end sports sunglasses that he probably wont wear outside of this event
i would give him at least one combat animation where he hooks a target, reels quickly so he gets close to them, and then wacks them with the pole to get unstuck
his NP is catching a whale and having it crush the enemies, its AOE arts
IZOU
not pictured here, but he’s a rider because he’s the one stuck driving the boat.
izou hates fishing because of his low rank luck 
he really only agreed to drive because arjuna said izou could pick and eat one of whatever he wanted of arjuna’s catch. 
yes, he is wearing the dreaded nike sandal and socks combo AND has a pack of marlboros. i feel this is an essence that he would carry in an event like this
his NP is running people over in his boat, its quick AOE
SCATHACH
she is an archer because she is using a spear gun. the only reason she’s using it is because she’s curious about it and its success rate vs regular spear fishing. the spears shes loaded into it are tiny gae bolgs
she is overprepared clothing wise and may die of heat stroke. she will try to stave it off with cold beer and it will somehow work (do not do that in real life)
in her front pocket she has mini guides to all local fish, as well as additional ammo, some food, a spare battery for the radio, and a flashlight. it works like a bag of holding
at least one animation is the gun getting jammed and her throwing it spear end at an enemy
her NP is buster AOE, and its her modifying her spear gun into a mounted machine gun and opening fire
ALSO MY IDEA FOR EVENT CURRENCY!!!!
bronze = lures
silver = magic fish scales
gold = The Big One (it is a fish)

Ty segall band tabs
Tumblr media
#TY SEGALL BAND TABS SERIAL#
#TY SEGALL BAND TABS FULL#
I’ve played a lot of Quad Reverbs and the silverface Fenders are all over the place. What amps did you use on the record? Segall: My main squeeze is a ’72 Fender Quad Reverb. My main guitar now is a Les Paul with P-90s. I actually don’t have that guitar anymore. Instead of the original P-90 pickups, it had Seymour Duncan Antiquities in it. Emmett Kelly: The guitar I played on the record was a modified ’59 Les Paul Special. There’s no whammy bar or anything on the Les Paul, so I’ve had to step up my actual playing instead of relying on sound effects. Have you found that your style has changed at all since you got the Les Paul? Segall: With the Mustang, I was super-reliant on the tremolo bridge. It’s like a grown-up’s version of an electric guitar.įor his new album, Segall enlisted the skills of veteran indie-rock producer Steve Albini, who got beefy guitar tones and kept the tracking lean. The sustain is insane compared to the Mustang. The Mustang-it’s bright and twangy, whereas the Les Paul is full-bodied, resonant. What’s it like going from the Mustang to the Les Paul in terms of sounds? Segall: It’s like a similar thing with how it feels. It feels like a toy compared to the Les Paul. I wouldn’t say I’m technical or anything, so it’s funny, now going back to the Mustang-realizing it’s a three-quarter scale. I don’t know much about guitars really, and I’m not like a studied guitar player. Before that, I played a Mustang kind of exclusively. It’s totally beat to shit, but I love that thing.
#TY SEGALL BAND TABS SERIAL#
I play a ’69 Les Paul, but I got it looked at, and supposedly it’s a late ’50s one that just has a ’60s serial number. I chatted to Segall and Kelly about the period-correct gear they used in creating those sounds, how Albini captured them perfectly in the studio, and how their home state of California plays into all of this. Joined by guitarist Emmett Kelly, multi-instrumentalist Mikal Cronin, drummer Charles Moothart, and keyboardist Ben Boye, Segall continues to explore pre-1980s sounds on the recording while stretching out with extended jamming and clearly relishing the energy of leading a live band.
#TY SEGALL BAND TABS FULL#
Segall recorded with a full band for the first time on his latest album, which is also called Ty Segall. “I’ve played with people where you’re both racing each other to the finish line or some shit like that, and that’s totally wack.” -Ty Segall He approaches the guitar in an appropriately non-schooled way, getting maximum mileage from a select palette of harmonic and melodic sources, all with great frenzy and groove. Since releasing his self-titled debut in 2008, Segall has played most of the instruments on his albums. But over the past decade, working solo and with various bands in the Bay Area and Los Angeles, he’s already created an impressive body of work that neatly synthesizes the sounds of his wide-ranging 1960s and ’70s influences: surf and garage rock, and early metal, among others. Segall, a native of Laguna Beach, California, isn’t yet 30. Segall’s label, Drag City, posted a video of the act (the YouTube search term is “A Flush Down the Tylet”) to its website without any explanation, but this weirdness was hardly surprising coming from a musician known to perform onstage in an elaborate satanic baby costume. Albini pushed the porcelain bowl, emblazoned with Segall’s name, off a loading dock, causing it to shatter into many pieces, and Segall finished off the job with an axe. Last November, singer-songwriter and guitarist Ty Segall smashed a toilet with the help of the legendary producer and engineer Steve Albini.

Hufflepuff Five is so good! Are the Hargreeves lives as students as adventurous like the main crew from HP? What about the Ministry of Magic? Would they get involved if someone caught wind of the sibling’s powers that weren’t just magic?
Their lives are SO wack honestly like, they just vibe. They just are going through their magical youth being absolute feral children who don’t trust adults as far as they can throw them while trying to hide their weird funky powers and also ravenously going through magical feats like they’re going out of style
Luther is every sibling’s go-to practice partner because apparently durability extends to being like? Slightly magic resistant? Basically if you hit Luther with a spell it will only be like, maybe half power? So the siblings use him as a magical shield half the time and an experiment the other half and Luther just Suffers Through This until it all goes wrong and he ends up as a werewolf, oops
(But at least Ben is alive! Honestly the only reason Luther wasn’t straight up mauled to death was a combo of his durability, Ben’s proficiency in healing magic, and Ben managing to befriend the acromantulas)
(Luther eventually gets a sense of humor about this after long years of working on accepting himself and constantly threatens to bite his siblings or makes comments about them looking extra tasty when they irritate him)
Allison is a quidditch star, super popular and athletic as all hell. She probably ends up being the Slytherin team captain, honestly. Allison is all glamor and charisma and in her later years of hogwarts has an absolute blast. Allison is very much functional passing so she’s usually the front man to get the professors off their backs, but she also is the front man for a lot of the shit that the family sell for extra spending money. Five and Ben might make potions, but Allison rules the underground black market in slytherin with an iron fist (which gets them into shenanigans involving other kids who Owe Debts)
Diego is on the gryffindor quidditch team and so him and Allison are constantly at each other’s throats on the pitch (Allison sometimes rumors him during matches when she gets within earshot which makes all of the siblings yell at him but she maintains that he gets to use his stupid powers to score points so she should get to as well). Diego gets roped into everything because he’s super soft. He starts a lot of fights because he has vigilante genes so he serves a lot of detentions. His house tolerates him losing them points because the man is a wizard with a quaffle
(Diego and Allison actually practice a lot together, which their respective teams are like HMMMM over but they’re siblings and slytherin knows that Allison would never hesitate to knock Diego off his broom and wave cheerily as he falls to his death, and gryffindor is aware that Diego can, should, and must throw a ball directly at Allison’s dumb face if she gets too close to him because of the Cain Instinct)
(Honestly Allison and Diego do a LOT for interhouse unity, showing that you can still be ride or die for each other while also wanting greatly to kill each other uwu)
Ben is too independent for his own good, which is what gets him into trouble. He likes gardening, and he likes herbs, and sometimes he’s just GOTTA go into the forbidden forest on a full moon to gather these very specific ingredients, c’mon. He also just. Likes spending time in the forbidden forest. He’s Hagrid’s favorite student because he doesn’t bat an eye at all the weird magical creatures, bc homeboy got an eldritch horror in his navel. Ben makes friends with the acromantulas (who have a healthy respect for him after the Horror ate a few of them), patiently avoids the centaurs, and bribes the pixies into giving him their shed wings through liberal application of jam stolen from the Hogwarts kitchens. 
You know what Allison is functional passing and Ben is distinguished passing, all their teachers assume that Ben is the most put together of them but they’re WRONG. They haven’t seen Ben at two in the morning yanking Vanya out of ben because if they don’t break into greenhouse four and help those poor fucking plants the first years are tending to they’re all going to DIE and that’s not fair??? ben is single handedly going to save all those poor plants (and all those first year’s grades)
Vanya is just VIBING, he ends up coming out as trans in fourth year and gets to be roommates with Ben which is pretty sweet. If only Ben didn’t drag him into shenanigans?? All the teachers are like “ah yes Vanya, such a quiet boy not like his siblings at all” but Vanya can will should and must climb onto the roof of the astronomy tower to play his violin because He Just Likes To Be Tall. Vanya once punched a snobby ravenclaw kid in the nose and then stared them down saying “the teachers will never believe you.”
Vanya steals Luther to practice his powers with in unused classrooms the most?? he’s durable. he’ll be fine if Vanya blasts him into a wall with his powers lol
Vanya’s solution to all their problems is “do you want me to blow it up with my powers?” or “do you want me to kill them for you?” 
(All of the siblings now refuse to duel with Vanya except for Luther bc Vanya is RUTHLESS. He WILL murder his siblings (almost) given the chance. They’re all so lucky that Ben is so good at healing and carries extra vials of healing potions on his person otherwise Madame Pomfrey would be VERY CONCERNED)
Five and Klaus probably get into the most shenanigans? Klaus gets less and less afraid of ghosts the more he runs into nice ones like Fred Weasley. Fred also lovingly nurtures Klaus’s absolutely terrible sense of humor and encourages him to prank the whole school. Klaus knows ALL the secret passageways thanks to Fred, a previous owner of the Maurauder’s map, so he’s just like. Constantly in the walls. He once dropped out of the ceiling to get to transfiguration in time and nobody even commented on it because Klaus is just Like That.
(A few people see Klaus’s boney elbows and knobbley knees and thinks he’s a good target for bullying just because he’s a slytherin and interhouse awfulness absolutely it at an all time high so recently after the war. YEAH his siblings step in and put the fear of god into any bullies, but Klaus fights like a cornered raccoon.)
Five is just way too smart and curious for his own good. He likes to poke around, figure things out, and also make money. Five does people’s homework, charges them for potions or rune work, tutors, dismantles shit in the chamber of secrets, ALSO explores the secret passageways (and finds some that weren’t on the map), is lovingly bullied into Friendship Activities with his housemates, breaks into the other houses’s common rooms for funsies, and keeps getting fed by the house elves who found out he can ‘apparate’ like them (without a wand) and have apparently adopted him against his will
Five is the sibling who has his fingers in like. ALL the pies. and just constantly pops up and drags them into things. Five will be helping Klaus with potions homework then glance up and tell Diego he’s cashing in the favor he’s owed for carving runes into Diego’s knives and that Diego now gets to break into Douglas Eddington’s room to steal back Lana Delwich’s diary so that Five can trade it to Lana for her rare Solomon Babik chocolate frog card which Five can give to Barnaby Beeson in exchange for a Large Distraction of Five’s Choice and a sketchy book on ward breaking which Five needs so he can break into the headmaster’s office to get a confiscated dark magic book that has some information Five needs to alter a potion that he’s probably going to make Luther drink later
Five is the sibling who is like “Ugh, I thought I was trading for some nundu ingredients but now i have a Whole Baby Nundu in the basement :/”
Which, of course, Klaus wants to keep despite the poison breath.
“This is literally one of the most dangerous magical creatures, we are not keeping it.” Luther says, unimpressed. However, he definitely has it cradled in his arms and makes kissy faces at it when he thinks no one is looking. (Apparently baby toxic nundu breath only makes Luther sneeze, so there’s that?)
“If you guys are arrested for smuggling I am not bailing you out.” Is Allison’s only decree about the matter.
Honestly I wouldn’t be shocked if someone DID eventually find out about one of the siblings’ powers - however, they would come to entirely the wrong conclusion about them?? Because this is a world of MAGIC and so everything magical has to have a magical explanation, right???
Luther is durable as all fuck???? Uhhhhh maybe he has some like. Troll blood or giant blood something back in his family line, obviously not something he would ever want the world to know about bc of species-ism
Allison can make you do whatever you want with her words????? Maybe she’s part veela? With that charm appeal?
Five is doing. Wandless apparation?? I mean, that’s rare as FUCK but wandless magic is,,, grudgingly accepted though it’s usually only used for small or very familiar spells and not usually something as complex as apparation but OKAY just sit him down and forbid him from doing it anymore bc boy boutta be SPLICED or some shit
Klaus can. Klaus can talk to ghosts. Who are not full ghosts. Hmm. huh. Maybe it’s?? A family ability??? a super rare one? like being a metamorphagus? (What the fuck??????? what the FUCK???????)
Primarily the kids started off paranoid because they believed that their abilities indicated that they weren’t the same type of magic, and they didn’t want to be returned to their father, and then it progressed into “these abilities might make people scared of us (looking at you allison, with your imperius-ass abilites)” or “we can’t afford that kind of scrutiny or curiosity about our powers (they might find out luther is a werewolf or something idk)” and “if we are ‘desirable’ children with ‘rare abilities’ the government might try to split us up and adopt us into weird pureblood families or something OR might try to lock us up (like where would they even put Ben??)”
honestly if ben ever got found out he’d just deadpan “it’s a curse, hand me the black wormroot would you?” and be like “oh yeah it’s under control i just go vibe in the woods every so often and rip up a tree or something. I think the horror wants to be the whomping willow when it grows up actually, so just don’t get too close when i’m in the horror zone. if you can live with a murder tree on campus you can live with me on campus”
someone sees vanya fuck something up with his powers and is like ???? and Vanya is just like “accidental magic lol” 
“aren’t you... a bit... old for accidental magic...”
“accidental. magic.”

top 5 gungeon guns
Honorable mention goes to
Tumblr media
It's a shotgun shell that shoots out shotguns which then shoot when they hit something. I find it more memorable than the bullet that does the same thing but with a handgun, but it falls just short of the top 5.
5.
Tumblr media
It's a revolver with a bunch of barrels welded on that somehow shoot despite not being connected to anything. I like it both for the idea of a big 'ol scattershot revolver and the song reference. It has a synergy with magic based guns called "Cast Iron" and I love the pun.
4.
Tumblr media
It's a gun with a snake on it that shoots poison lasers. It has lore as being made by a character who has made other animal based guns and is listed as one of their worst ideas since the snake is liable to bite you.
3.
Tumblr media
Just look at it. Reloading this gun has it do a kickflip. There's actually a mechanic tied to this gun. It has an 'active reload' meaning that while reloading, if you hit the reload button at the right time, the gun will get stronger and immediately reload. There's an item that adds this to all guns, but the rad gun has it by default. Each success has it play a voice clip saying "RAD" "COOL" or "NOICE" in a skater voice and makes the reload go faster to make reaching the next level of strength harder. At max strength, the bullets get sunglasses. Failing makes the gun go "Wack." A very strong option if mastered.
2.
Tumblr media
It's the buster from Mega Man, plain and simple. It's a strong option with a bunch of ammo and a powerful charge shot that only costs 1 ammo. It also has a bunch of synergies with other guns that give it similar functionality to those guns that you can swap between like in Mega Man. It even changes the color palette like in Mega Man. Now this is extremely similar to another gun based on Samus's arm cannon that functions extremely similarly with a charge shot and synergies granting fire modes you can switch between. I just have more attachment to Mega Man than Metroid.
1.
Tumblr media
Quite literally the last thing you unlock, requiring you to unlock everything and find every item at least once. It also replaces one of the very first and most common guns in the game, the unfinished gun. It's classified as both a common and super rare item, putting it in both pools. Any drop that would drop the unfinished gun, including destroying a chest, will make this drop instead when unlocked. The thing is, I'm honestly not a fan of the gun itself. It gives you 5 curse which is halfway to having an unstoppable reaper follow you, increases the appearance of jammed enemies that deal double damage and have increased health, and makes mimics and exploding chests more common. The strengths of the gun don't nearly outweigh the negatives of the curse in my opinion.
But it isn't my favorite due to strength or being a neat reference. It's symbolic. Described as a swan-song work that feels intimately familiar, it was added in the final update "Farewell to Arms" whose promotional image is still my desktop background to this day.
Tumblr media
From its launch in 2016, its demo before then, to Farewell to Arms' launch exactly 3 years later, Enter the Gungeon had evolved so much, grown so much. Having walked alongside it on its journey and seeing this ultimate culmination of everything, cut items being added back in, bigger things being attempted, all ending up with the ultimate conclusion in the final major update. It's something that inspires such deep emotions within me that I can help but cry as I type this. I'll continue this in another ask.

Fiat Lux
Everyone sees the girl of steel as an almighty, indestructible being. But before being a hero, she is a person, and this implies some quirks. Some fears as well.
Chapter 1
(Ao3)
“Oh here you are!”
Kara opened her eyes to see a not so happy Alex standing in front of her, decked out in her biker attire. Which of course, considering the rebellious side of her sister’s personality, was mostly black leather.
She had not even taken the time to store her helmet properly, and was just waving it in Kara’s direction, in a sort of accusatory way.
Okay, it means that she was either in a hurry or stressed. This isn't good for me. And right now it looks more like she is ready to knock me out, Kara thinks with a bit of apprehension.
Sure, she is a kryptonian under a yellow sun, and this helmet would not hurt her in any way. But she would feel the wack, and Kara also worries of what the people nearby would think of the whole scene.
“Hello Alex” she said with fake enthusiasm, “You arrive just at the right time. I was about to go to Noonan for some caramel mocha. Wanna tag along? It’s all on me”.
Humans say that the way to one’s heart is through one’s stomach. This should work, right?
Alex passed her hand through her hair, trying to diminish the mess made by her helmet. Kara is almost sure she heard her mumble something along the line of “I am too old and not paid enough for this…”, before she sat down on the bench to be at eye level with the blonde.
“Listen” the redhead started, after having gathered her thoughts.
“I understand that it’s spring, and the weather is nice, and all that. We all got through that incredibly gloomy winter. But can you just stop disappearing every few hours?”.
Alex pinched the bridge of her nose before adding.
“I know that since Lena and you are dating, It’s unlikely it will get you in trouble. But Nia and I are done with your coworkers calling randomly to ask where you can be at the moment. At least, she has some ground to work from, while I’m completely in the dark of what you’re currently working on at work. I swear one day I’ll end up saying you’ve finally followed your true passion, and are digging some dinosaur fossil in the Andes”.
“Hey! Dinosaurs are fascinating creatures. And I’m sure Lena wouldn’t be opposed to one article, she loves sciences so she should…”
“Kara, this is beyond the point!” Alex interrupted her, clearly not in the mood for some sort of archaeological brainstorming.
At least, Kara had the good sense to appear a bit guilty after seeing her sister fuming expression.
She knew that she was running a bit late on her break, but why was everyone making a big deal out of it? It’s not like she had been abducted (again), or like there was an alien wreaking havoc downtown (again as well).
“Relax, I am just recharging Alex. Everything is fine.” Kara had been peacefully basking in the sunlight as soon as the delivery guy had reached CatCo building with her inhuman order of potstickers and lemonade.
The weather had been incredible the last couple of days, and all the more tempting when she was trapped at her desk, glaring at her computer screen in hope it would get her articles written faster. So, when Lena had said she would spend the rest of the week working from L-Corp, having to meet with some investors for her last est healthcare invention, Kara had seized her chance. There was a small park two blocks away from her workplace, and she intended to get the most out of it.
At least before her sister came looking for her.
I have the feeling that I may end up in trouble after all. I am sure she will dutifully report all that too Lena. those two have been getting along too well lately, now...
“Earth to Kara! Did you even hear a word of what I said?”.
The redhead had snapped her out of her daydreaming by jamming a finger in her side, clearly getting more annoyed by the minute.
“Hey! No need to resort to violence” Kara said while massaging the sensitive spot on her side that Alex had targeted. “And yes, I’ve heard you just fine. I don’t know why you are all making a fuss about it, I was just recharging a bit in the sun…”
"You blew out your power?!" Alex hissed, interrupting the blonde.
She looked around them to make sure that no one could hear them, before scooting over closer to her sister, taking her hands in hers.
“What happened?”Alex asked, searching Kara’s face for any trace of bruises, signs of concussion. “We didn’t see anything out of the ordinary at the DEO. Did someone use kryptonite on you? Those radiations are harder to pick up on but we…”
“Alex. As much as I love seeing you be the protective sister, I promise I’m fine.” Kara chimed in, clearly willing to stop the scientific monologue that was about to unfold.
If she was still the most prone of the two to rambling, the redhead wasn’t that far behind.
“I just wanted to recharge my shoes while there is still sun outside” Kara said, a grin slowly stretching her lips.
“You wanted to recharge what now?” Alex asked, looking completely dumbfounded.
And right at this moment, she shows her her brand new shoes. Pointing down at them, like an over excited kid.
"They glow in the dark, Alex!" Kara says, before getting up from the bench she was perched on, to go in the shade of the tree nearby.
“It was the last pair in my size with that design. And honestly who can say no to phosphorescent accessories? They make every single day a bit more … bright!” She added, laughing at her own joke.
Indeed the soles and laces of shoes start to faintly glow this unmistakable phosphorescent green color. But what really caught Alex’s attention, was the House of El’s sigil, painted big on the sides of both sneakers.
It is said that this day director Danvers took a day off (probably to go to Kelly for some well deserved therapy).
______________________________________________________________
After having witnessed Alex’s face going through something Kara would describe as similar to a stroke, and then suffering her endless ranting about how she was still a kid, that she should focus on her actual job and some more, she finally returned to her desk.
In her opinion, her sister was overreacting. Sure Kara had been a bit late, but she needed that time off to relax and finally finish her articles. And maybe she had been going out on more errands lately, but a reporter was supposed to be on the field to get some exclusivity, right? The fact that all this slime out would recharge her shoes and ensure they would glow when Kara got back home was just a perk.
Kara bought those shoes for two main reasons.
The first one is that comfort comes before style when you are a reporter. She can walk miles a day when out for a scoop, or when she needs to meet with her sources. And if her super powers prevent her from getting any blisters, they don't save her from discomfort (and workdays are already long enough as they are, she'd like to be able to walk without wincing thank you).
The second reason is that they protect her from the dark. Her passage through the fandom zone had been years ago, sure, but she was only a child back then, and darkness still unsettles her. She doesn't draw the curtains completely shut at night, she keeps her door slightly ajar, ... Anything to not be in the dark. She needs to be able to see things around her, to ground herself and to know she isn't still lost in this endless/timeless zone of the universe.
One last perk? Kids love these shoes and Kara is delighted to see them smile when they see her shoes glowing. Adults would never admit it, but the super see them smile softly to themselves when she passes by.

You Owe Me 20 Bucks - Steve Rogers
Synopsis;
Steve just simply wants to protect you, you find it extremely annoying how his plans to protect you get in the way of you doing your job as an Avenger, and Bucky and Sam have a running bet.
Tumblr media
Warnings: A lil bit of language. Arguing. Mentions of violence. Mentions of betting. Wack ass stuff man. Fluff.
Words: 2,030
Pairings: Steve Rogers x Reader 
_______________
You walked into the meeting room, ready to be briefed by Fury for the next mission. This would be your first assignment in 2 months since your injury. Ever since you had woken up, everyone had babied you, especially a certain super soldier, which ticked you off to no end.
You took your place in-between Wanda and Bucky and prepared yourself for the droning voice of Fury and the nagging of Steve. “Hey, you good?”
You inwardly groaned at Bucky’s question. It was nice that the team cared so much but it was a bitch to deal with all their incessant babying and over protectiveness. “I’m fine, Buck, really.”
As if he could sense your irritation, he retreated and opted to leave you be. You signed in relief and sunk back into your chair. Just as you had gotten comfortable, Fury entered, followed by Maria then Mr. Patriarchy himself. “Avengers.” Fury simply greeted to grab everyone’s attention.
And so, the briefing had commenced and passed by, the only thing left on the check list was to discuss who will be part taking in the mission. “A team of 6 will be going in, the others will stay behind and only move out when needed. Stark, Barnes, Barton, Maximoff, Y/L/N, you 5 will be joining Rogers at the base.”
Before any body got the chance to voice their readiness, Steve had spoken up. “Y/L/N isn’t ready.”
You saw red as he had easily diminished your ability to be out in the field. “Like fuck I’m not ready.” You quickly stood from your seat so fast, the chair had scrapped against the floor before falling over harshly.
“If I say you’re not ready then you’re not ready.” Steve crossed his arms over his chest, standing his ground. Thing is, you were stubborn, every Avenger and agent knew that about you.
You walked towards in quick, long strides and stared him down, inches from his face. “It’s my body, I know when it’s damn ready.” You stepped back and looked towards Fury. “So, when we due to head out?”
“In an hour.”
“Great, see you guys at the jet.” You quickly turned on your heel and headed towards your room, ignoring the calls of your peers.
“I guess that’s all. Dismissed.” Fury disbanded the meeting, sending the remaining Avengers to prepare for their mission or go back to lazing around, ready to be called out as back up. Steve sighed heavily through his nose as her closed his eyes and pinched the bridge between his pointer finger and thumb.
As Bucky passed his best friend, he patted his shoulder and flashed him a tight-lipped smile, sympathising with his friend. This is gonne be one long mission.
_______________
The time came for the team to meet at the jet. You stepped on to the platform and headed over to the jet to meet with the others. Just as you placed one foot on to the flying metal contraption, the blonde of the 40’s due spoke. “I said you’re not ready.”
You rolled your eyes and chose to ignore his complaints. Ensuring your gear that you’re decked out in is securely strapped on, you made haste towards a free seat at the back off the jet, unfortunately getting blocked off by Steves’ broad and muscular form. You huffed and quickly side stepped him, proceeding to sit.
“No matter how much you nag, they’re still gonna tag along, dude. May as well give up before you’re driven mad.” Clint commented, eliciting a soft giggle from Wanda and a snicker from Tony, both trying desperately to cover their amusement up in any way available to them.
“He has a point. Maybe instead of butting heads, you could help her through this mission.” Bucky spoke directly to his friend.
“Or they could actually listen and not go.” Steve narrowed his eyes towards your ignorant and slouched form, folding his arms across his chest. Tony rolled his eyes before making his way through the jet to pilot it.
“Okay losers, can we all quieten down now. Daddy’s got a jet to fly.” And with that, Tony had the jet off the platform and heading to your destination. Steve huffed and sat opposite you next to Bucky. He stared you down whilst you continuously ignored him through the whole flight.
_______________
“What the hell, Steve?! I had it handled!” You yelled at your fellow Avenger as you all boarded the jet, ready to head back to the compound.
“Didn’t look like it!” Steve had replied, matching your volume.
You scoffed and threw your arms up into the arm in exasperation. “You have a seriously fucked up hero complex, you know that?!”
The yelling match continued between you both throughout most of the flight. By this point, the others within the small confides of the jet had pounding migraines and are in need of about 20 Advils each.
As soon as the jet landed back within the grounds of the compound, you both stormed out of the jet, heading to your separate rooms, both slamming them shut as loudly as possible, hoping the other would hear and convey how pissed you were.
“Ah, young love.” Tony quipped as his suit disassembled from around his form.

It had been a full week of you ignoring Steve. He had tried previously throughout the week, but you blanked him, simply as if he hadn’t existed. He knew he seriously messed up the second enemy after enemy headed towards you. He knew you could have easily defended yourself and have taken them out even easier but, you were right. He does have a fucked up hero complex.
But mostly, he always felt the need to protect you. Falling in love with a completely independent and able Avenger is a tough gig. Apparently.
Steve had had enough and decided he was going to talk to you, whether you wanted to or not. He marched with determination straight to your room and knocked brashly. He heard you groan from the opposite side of the door before the light patter of your feet pad along the floor. You swung the door open widely with a look of annoyance across your face, but it had quickly faltered as you tried to close the door just as hastily. He jammed his foot between the door and its frame.
“Leave me alone Steve.” He could easily detect the irritation and impatience within your voice. He pushed the rest of the way into your room and you groaned loudly once again. “You clearly don’t understand English, should I try Spanish? German? Ukrainian? Mandarin?”
“Okay, I get it, you’re pissed and you don’t want to see me. Well tough shit.” He stepped closer to you as you stood your ground. “We need to talk whether you like it or not.”
“Oh yeah? And what do we need to talk about exactly?”
Steve inhaled deeply before continuing. “About how you’re acting. You can’t act like a stroppy teenager whenever someone gives you a helping hand during a mission.”
You scoff, unbelieving of what he is saying. “That wasn’t a ‘helping hand’, that was undermining myself as an abled agent and my abilities to handle the enemy. That wasn’t a ‘helping hand’, that was throwing me to the side while you did all the work.” Your shoulders heaved up and down as your breathing became heavier the more anger filled you.
“Jesus Christ Y/N, I was trying to help! I led the mission that day and it’s my responsibility if any of you screw up. All I did was ensure none of you did.” Steves’ voice raised to match yours.
“NO! You ensured I didn’t screw up because “I’M NOT READY!”” At some point you had started to pace around the room in an attempt to calm you.
Steve ran his hand down his face as he groaned loudly. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath in, willing himself to calm himself down also. “I just care about you Y/N/N. Please, why can’t you just understand that.”
“Well, you should go care about someone else. I didn’t see you hounding Starks’ ass about being careful.”
“Jesus H Christ, I’m in love with you, alright?!” Steve had exclaimed loudly in exasperation. You froze on the spot and slowly turned, shock evident across your face.
“Wha-what?” You stuttered out in a quiet whisper. Steve registered what had just slipped passed his lips and opened and closed his mouth, attempting to come up with some form of excuse for what he had said. “What did you just say Steve?” You spoke, your voice raised, pronunciation clear.
Steve sighed and looked down before tilting his head in the slightest to gaze into your eyes as he spoke sheepishly. “I said I’m in love with you, I love you.” He searched your face for the slightest inkling of reciprocation in the mix of a million emotions displayed across it. It had been a good minute or so of silence as you comprehended what he had just told you. He began to feel self-conscious and paranoia presented itself within him deeply. “Please say something.” He pleaded, his voice quiet.
This seemed to have snapped you out of whatever trance had engulfed you and you swallowed thickly as you looked up at him with wide eyes. You willed yourself to be brave as if you were back out in the field. You charged forward and crashed your lips to his, the move bolder than what you were used to doing.
You grasp on to him tightly, afraid he would pull away, although, you knew that was not going to be the case for he instantaneously reciprocated the intimate action with as much gusto and desperation. His larger hands came to hold on to your hips, knuckles turning white from how tightly his hands balled up your shirt.
Sooner than you had liked, you both parted and laid your foreheads against the others as you panted, desperate for any intake of oxygen. “I love you too, Steve.” You whispered breathlessly, looking up into his beautiful, blue orbs. They had even seemed to have an extra shine in this moment as you gazed deeply into them.
He smiled a huffed out a small chuckle, his thumb rubbing up and down against your side in a soothing and loving manner. “God, you drive me crazy.”
You both continued to stand there for what felt like hours when in actuality, was only a minute or so. Suddenly, a loud knock at the door echoed throughout the room before opening and revealing Sam and Bucky on the other side. “Hey, you guys comin-oh, damn, our bad. We’ll uh, leave you to it.” And with that, Sam quickly turned and shoved Bucky out along with him as he closed the door behind them.
“I think you owe me 20 bucks.” You heard Bucky’s voice through the door which had muffled the sound slightly.
“Man, I was sure they’d go another week before one of ‘em confessed.” You heard Sam whine as you presumed while he fished out the bills from his pocket to hand over to his apparent betting partner.
Their interaction had caused both you and Steve let out a small bout of laugh before turning your attention back towards one another. “I guess we should head down for food, huh?” Steve suggested whilst he had a boyish grin etched upon his face.
All you could do was mirror his smile and release a near inaudible ‘yes’ as you nod and step back, taking his larger hand into one of your own. He quickly pulled you towards him to lay a final pure, sweet, gentle kiss upon your plump lips. “Let’s go.”
He led you out of your room and towards the elevator, ready to join the others for food. As you stood in the elevator, you felt Steves’ gaze on you. You turned you head and sent him a wolfish smirk. “Bet you 20 bucks that they told everyone.”
Steve threw his head back in laughter as he wrapped his arm around your shoulders and brought you closer into his side. “You’re on.”

ATLA Indie Band AU (pt.2)
Read the first part here!
(this part of this AU is about The Gaang’s band. The next part will be about Blood Honey and the next about how the bands interact/romances, so stay tuned. A lot of these things are from my real life, can you guess which ones?)
Ease Up Kid!:
Sokka writes a lot of the band’s lyrical content, though everyone else pitches in with suggestions and line changes as well. Sokka also writes riffs which Toph builds on top of, which Aang adds on to and then, and in turn, Suki scat sings over. This is how most of their songs are made, by someone creating a cool riff/beat and everyone else joining in to jam.
The vibe of their music ranges from bedroom pop to indie rock.
They’ve won four battle of the bands and are really popular in their town and surrounding ones. They also have three EP’s: Honey, Hello Sunshine, and Wide Awake. Their most popular song is Isn’t It Nice and they play it at every show. They gig regularly and have played at a few local festivals.
Before every show, they have a ritual of dancing around and singing off-key to old One Direction songs in the backroom to loosen up their limbs and voices.
Suki wears metal cuffs on both her wrists when playing shows because she was wearing them the first time they won battle of the bands, and they were thus deemed her lucky bracelets. Before she goes on stage Sokka always asks her in a super-serious voice, “wrists?” and she lifts up her arms and jangles them in front of his face.
Sokka plays a “lake placid blue” Fender Vintera '60s Mustang. He lets absolutely no one touch it or tune it for him. Toph plays a Fender American Performer Mustang Bass in seafoam green that she only lets Katara touch (she knows Katara will take the best care of it like she does her clarinet). Aang plays an amber Yamaha Stage Custom Birch 5-Piece Shell Pack drum set. He can pack and tear down his drum kit in 6 minutes flat. Everyone helps to break down the equipment and they work like a well-oiled machine moving amp’s, wrapping chords, and packing things in Aangs huge van named Appa.
Suki likes to talk to the crowd in between every few songs and is the queen of fan interaction. Sokka jumps all around the stage like an excited puppy and has even been known to roll around the floor on occasion (think Frank Iero from MCR). Toph is mostly known for staying on her side of the stage but has the most epic power stance in the entire country. Aang plays with a smile on his face for the duration of the show and always ends up covered in sweat (he wears a headband to keep it out of his eyes).
Toph has been known to accidentally wack Sokka in the face with the headstock of her bass (“It was an accident I swear!” “How was it an accident Toph you raised the neck of your bass to hit me in the face!”).
Aang breaks at least one pair of sticks every show and no one knows how. 
The worst show they ever played was at a street festival in the summer with no canopy to shield them from the sun. The sound engineer was off to the side of the stage, making it almost impossible to hear Suki and Toph’s bass being way too loud. Sokka’s guitar detuned every five seconds due to the heat and he was forced to tune in between every song. They all had outrageous sunburn afterward and Aang almost passed out from heat exhaustion. The planners of the festival forgot to book a band after them so the Gaang ended up playing for almost five hours on and off.
The best show they ever played was in a hole in the wall venue that was packed to the rafters with fans. The crowd sang all their songs back to them and the whole place had an energy level that could power an entire city.
Katara can often be seen sticking the band’s logo stickers on random objects around the city.

hello!!! 💖 favorite shape (2D or 3D)? favorite punctuation? favorite 5sos music video? favorite quote? favorite book? hope you have a great day!!
hi!! great to have you here i hope you're doing well!!
favorite shape: i am a fan of a good sphere i just think it's so cool that's the shape things just become in space like?? planets could be any shape but they chose spheres (as they should). hexagons are also neat bc bees like them and bees are always correct.
favorite punctuation: semicolons! i use them much more than i should but i think it's my right to. close second is parentheses bc that is how i think.
favorite 5sos music video: this is a hard one bc by what kind of measurements are we talking about? i think i like the concept of old me best and i like the storyline/general execution, but there’s also want you back with the fun neon and the spinning box thingy that they just jam in. and then of course there’s girls talk boys which is just so bad it’s good in a way? like i love how they leaned into the low-budget aesthetic but also the random flashes btwn 5sos and the ghostbusters film is just wack i love it plus there’s the lady in red who hits the ghosts with a frying pan and generally is more competent at ghostbusting than all four of them together. also michael waves at a toy car. but then there’s *also* teeth lftv which is just very rock and has fun cameras on the instruments which is fun and also it’s plot is just very??? like there’s the red lady looking very cool (and not in a super sexualized way like in easier/easier lftv) and creepy but what is she doing? who is she? no one knows! and for some reason they went with a weird yellow color and seizure-inducing lighting for why? once again we don’t know! and i love that! and THEN there’s the teenage dream for sirius xm video which technically isn’t a music video however. i think it should be bc it is just That Good. there’s something for everyone and also michael’s solo turns me into an entirely different person so. really the answer to your question is i have no clue slkfjldskjflskdj
favorite quote: i took a poetry class a couple semesters ago and we each had to memorize a poem. i semi-randomly selected “everything is going to be alright” by derek mahon and if it’s not cheating to say the entire poem i’m going to say the entire poem is (one of) my favorite quote(s). even if you’re not into poetry i recommend this one.
favorite book: i actually answered that here but i have more so that is not a problem! for nonfiction i like “the devil in the white city” and for insufferably long classics i adore les mis by victor hugo (unabridged of course, who doesn’t need 150 pages on the battle of waterloo or the first 100 pages being about a character that will never appear again?) and looking at series, i adore lotr and hp and school for good and evil (the original trilogy, i haven’t caught up with the other ones) and the bartimaeus trilogy.
send in “what’s your favorite...” asks!

I can’t sleep so I’m just thinkin’ about my range of Pokémon romantic F/Os. This series has meant so much to me for so long, and I know F/Os from that source make up a decent portion of my list. I’d feel more embarrassed about it if I didn’t make it abundantly clear that Pokémon is one of the most pervasive influences in my life from an exceedingly young age.
I just. I dunno. I find my collection of Pokémon series F/Os so interesting.
I’m just gonna ramble a bit.
I’m going to talk in Generational order, because my 1am brain couldn’t decipher a more cohesive timeline if it tried.
Giovanni is a funny one. As a kid, his character in the show intimidated me a little. But I really loved Team Rocket on some level. They were my first Pokémon villain organization, and with the Gen III games having Aqua and Magma, I decided pretty early that Team Rocket was my team. I had a stint in Magma since when I was young, I thought I’d specialize in Fire types, but eh it didn’t stick. No team really stuck nearly as much until Team Skull! So I had a lot of time for my intimidation from Giovanni to evolve into a fearful respect, to a mild devotion… by the time I played Let’s Go! and Ultra Moon, I was more than a little excited to see him in game. As in, I would quietly cheer when he appeared on my screen, in some weird giddy manner. It was only a matter of time before I realized I was crushing hard.
Steven Stone (he has a full name so more often than not I use it when referring to him) probably didn’t make the biggest impact on me in the original Gen III games? Hoenn was my favorite region for a while (in part due to pre- “Hoenn confirmed” hype), but he didn’t have a huge role in Ruby/Sapphire. Maybe I noticed him first in Emerald? I wish I could remember my real first inkling of crush on him, because I just remember when I played Omega Ruby… I was already obsessed with him. He showed up for the first time in game and I squealed. I spent the whole game seeking him out and already making romantic passes at him in my around-19-year-old head.
I am counting Grovyle for this, but it bears repeating that my S/I for the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games is a Pokémon too. Those Mystery Dungeon games enamored me as a teen! I got to BE! A POKEMON!! So I probably got Explorers of Time/Darkness for DS not long after it released in 2008. I was so excited to have Gen IV Pokémon to be and battle and recruit, ugh, this game meant so much to me. I will always remember being part of Wigglytuff’s Guild super fondly. And like, as I am super susceptible to mental role play, putting myself in my characters shoes (or lil toe beans I guess) has always been second nature for me. So a dashing Grovyle just jumped into my silly life and was the most honorable and misunderstood character and I am not even joking when I say I fell for him in my first playthrough. And I’ve played through it a lot. I was always jealous of Celebi. I hate every Dusknoir I see to this day. *chefs kiss* Good game.
Gen V is “oops all F/Os” Gen, where to even start..
Just kidding, N is the obvious choice to start for me. He was love at first sight. He just, ugh, he cares about Pokémon SO MUCH. I literally don’t know how to even expand on this. He literally rode the Ferris Wheel with the player character in the game, and I WASNT supposed to interpret that as a date? Wack. It was a date. I love him so damn much. Next question
Elesa comes next because I’ve always thought she was stunning. I mean, duh I guess, she’s canonically a model. Also, Electric types are in my top 3, behind Fairy and somewhat tied with Fire, so she was a woman after my own heart. Her Emolga kinda wrecked my team and I respect that. Also, she loves puns. So again. Woman after my own heart. The only reason she’s still listed as Crush and not as Dating is because she intimidates me. She’s out of my league and I worry she’d only see me as a friend. Well, not “only”, her and Skyla are bffs and that also looks fun. I just. Can’t imagine her romantically being interested in me sometimes. Heh.
Grimsley was a crush that came on yeeeaaaars after his Gen, and it hit me like a freight train. I swear, he made very little impression on me in B/W, because I was young and I was just excited to possibly see N again as champion. I was a little shit, okay. I also never played B2/W2 all the way through, which is a huge stain on my Pokémon record. Anyways. When he showed up in Sun/Moon, I gasped. I was like, that’s a familiar face. Why is he hot now? (The answer is we was always hot, and I just had a few years to grow between games). But like, I kind of tamped it back down? I think I legit tried to tell myself around Sun/Moon era that I can’t keep finding Pokémon characters hot, because I was drooling over another one in Moon. Anywho. Grimsley kept popping up as fanart on my Tumblr dash for a while and by the time I pulled him in Pokémon Masters, I slipped into love. Whoops.
Professor Sycamore, probably not my proudest moment of fandom. He was another one I liked from the very introduction. I made fun of him in equal measure, but I affectionately referred to him as “Professor Hotdad” for an embarrassingly long amount of time. He’s not even the oldest of my Pokémon F/Os. One of my other Pokémon F/Os is canonically a father. But nope. Sycamore was Hotdad. That all said, he did make me smile like a crush-stricken schoolgirl when he talked in game so it wasn’t all just memey objectification. I do love him dearly.
Gen VII! Alola! Guzma! Oh man, like I’d stated earlier, Team Skull really nestled it’s way close to my heart the way no team had since Team Rocket. It wasn’t all because of Guzma, I really did like the group of ragtag misfits banding together and creating a family. Guzma was icing on the cake. Oh boy, he made my heart do funny little flips even when he was threatening me in game. I loved his design, I loved his character, the way he talked, I just. Ugh, I was down bad for ya boy in Moon and Ultra Moon. He’s actually the inspiration behind my main blog url: its-ya-boi-remington. The “Y’all are stupid!” line and face lives in my head rent free at all times. Guzma protection squad.
(Nanu isn’t a romantic so I won’t talk about him here, just know I’m not forgetting him!)
Leon was, believe it or not, my actual first Gen VIII crush. I saw that fashion disaster and felt a warm comfort from him. It didn’t help that I mentally read every character in Galar with some UK/British Isles accent, that sweetened the deal. I was actually gushing to a couple then-friends about Leon while we all played Sword/Shield together and they kind of mocked me about it. They chided me that Leon “doesn’t bat for my team” and said either of them would have a better chance with him if he were real. So I was a little downtrodden about Leon after that for quite a while. It wasn’t until a couple months ago when suddenly it hit me that A- He’s literally fictional and my version of him can like me regardless of what “team he bats for” and B- I’m nonbinary? So rules get thrown out the window, anyone who likes me is both a miracle and some kind of gay whatever way you spin it. So I let myself warm back up to him, though I’m still a little skittish from before.
Piers, I guess, as awful as it sounds, was initially a crush rebound. Like, don’t get me wrong, I’d have been attracted either way. He’s a musician, a SINGER no less, and has that emo/punk vibe. But he’s also gentle and kind. Swoon. But it helped that I had my crush-feelers out full-force for a cutie in game to obsess over since I was still butthurt about my “friends” killing my crush on Leon. Obsess I did, and continue to do. I could probably snap this man over my knee like firewood he’s so lanky, idk why I put that in here but it’s staying. Piers is the one I most imagine jamming out with on a regular basis, and it makes performing for no one a bit more fun 🥰
I’m finally getting tired, I feel like I’ve been typing this for an hour. I probably have been. Ah geez now I gotta tag all these F/Os lmao. Thanks for letting me ramble.

BST: Chapter 2
A/N: Sorry this chapter is a bit shorter than most because it’s so important to me. Other than that, I plan on making it longer in the next chapter to make it up to you.
Tumblr media
(Spacing is wack, this is what I have in mind for the back part of the house)
Credit goes to the respective owner of this image Miami MLS
Previous:
"You do realize...you don't have to do this, right babe?" Hoseok whispered out against your ear. You shivered and turned slowly around in his arms as he adjusted his hold on you again. The sight from afar made it looked so awfully domestic, it'd melt even the coldest heart.
"I know but it's the least I could do" you rasped out against his chest before turning around, getting back to work on putting the mixture onto the warming pan.
Even as you move about pouring the pancake mixture onto the warming pan, Hoseok's hands continue to linger on your hips. Ten minutes had passed and before long, you heard soft snoring sound coming from behind you, including the sudden extra weight on your back. He had fallen asleep while nuzzling into your body in the early hours. He must have been out late, doing errands for Yoongi, again. You sigh knowingly but quickly finished whipping up a batch of pancake, respectively placing equal amounts on 7 plates that you had set out earlier. You turned off the electric stove and cautiously turned in Hoseok's arm, in fear of waking up the sunshine. You place your arms around him to hold him upright, at that moment, you notice a pair of gleaming brown eyes mirroring yours.
It was Jungkook, in all his morning glory of ruffled hair and wrinkled sleepwear. He must have had a restful sleep but he deserves it, you mused. Mafia work often leads to a sudden rush of adrenaline, making the person excited and yet when it decreases to normal, they are left tired.
"Want some help with that?" he eyed Hoseok in your arms then returned his gaze to you, eyes sparkling with amusement. You smiled at him and whispered, please, loud enough for him to hear but not wake up Hoseok. Jungkook nodded and walked up to you, gently removing Hoseok from you. Thank you Kookie, you murmur and smile at him. He returned it and began to walk towards the marble staircase in order to ascend to Hoseok's room.
You circle around the counter to set down each member's plates. The table had been set earlier by the housemaids while you were cooking. You did one last round to serve your brother, at the head of the table, his plate before bending down to hug him. He blushes and stutters out a "hey!...not in front of them..." in your arm as the room roars with the sound of giggles from his fellow consigliere. Their eyes filled with adoration and love for their leader. Eventually, you deemed the hug was long enough to show your love, gratitude for the countless times he protected and stay with you throughout the night full of recurring bad dreams, and a little bit of teasing. After all, Yoongi had to keep up an image of the fearless, powerful, and ruthless mafia leader but within the safe confinement of your arms and the house, he could show you and his inner members the sides of which he must lock away deep within himself. Otherwise, if he ever let those softer and weaker sides of him show in public, his family (mainly you as all your family members had been either killed or assassinated), consigliere and everything he had and obtained will be jeopardized. He won't risk it, not even for the biscuit because you are the last remaining treasure that he has.
10 Years Prior
Growing up, you were spoiled rotten with girly princess dresses, diamond tiaras, and lived in a mansion by the oceanside. Your family, which consisted of your mother and father, adored and loved you. You were the center of jealousy for every girl in school and in town. For that reason, your parents often never let you out of the house or play with other children of your age. They deemed that the housemaids and butler were to be your playmates and that the house would be your playground.
Even so, you don't often get the chance to wander around your own house. You were either hustled to the study room or the grand library built within the house to study. Your parents had hired private tutors in order for you to excel in school without them having to worry. Turns out, you don't disappoint. You often had a knack for having the ability to memorize a large sum of information in a short time frame too. You also outperformed quick maths calculations faster than any other students in your year.
You had just finished your study earlier than scheduled so your tutor left you in the care of the housemaids who you've come to love. It's nearly lunchtime so they were going to go prepare and serve the food soon. You finally have the free time to yourself to run around and explore your own home.
30 minutes into the exploration, you stumble down into the basement of the house which was guarded by a large metal door. There were strange button pads with numbers on the right side of the door. It looked super soft and squishy so you decided to jam on random numbers, it wouldn't hurt, right? After 3-4 random jamming of numbers for 13 digits, the sound of the alarm began to blare. You quickly covered your ears, closed your eyes and hunched into a ball in fear. Praying to whatever god that was listening that it would stop and you wouldn't get caught and not get in trouble. Suddenly, you felt as if you were floating and the alarm sound ceased. You opened your eyes to see your mother standing by the security padlock before grabbing onto you to drag you to your feet. She was furious, the fire blazing in her eyes told you so. "I told you...to NEVER come down here. You could be in danger! Why won't you just LISTEN to me?" She spat.
"I'm sorry...I didn't mean to...I finished my studies early so I decided to explore the house and got lost.." you answered casting your eyes to the ground while digging your hands into your dress pocket and fidget nervously. Your mother must have picked up on your fear and began to soften her voice. "It's fine...I will forgive you this time. Don't make the same mistake again...". At that time, your mother had felt pity for her own daughter getting lost in her own home. The mansion so large a size but the loneliness remains. After all, you had no siblings of your own. It was something that you often think about at school seeing other children act with their sisters or brothers.
You woke up one Saturday morning at 4:30 AM by a soft knock with your mother entering your room but your father smiled and lingered by the door. "Good morning little one, how was your sleep? Mommy and Daddy will have to go out to do business today. Will you be good and stay inside the house today, sweets?" she asked while walking over to your bed and lightly kissed your temple. "Yes, I'll see you soon when you return, mom", you replied, smiling while looking up at your beloved mother. "Then it's time we get going my dear,'' she replied before turning and walking back to her husband's side, tears slowly brimming her eyes.
What your younger and naive self didn't know then was that it was going to be the last time you saw your parents smiling happily, being alive, and well. You never wondered even for a second, how the mansion you live in, the expenses, clothing, and jewelry were obtained through their laundered and bloodied money. Looking back, you had just figured they were Old Money. What you didn't know then and innocently assumed would come back and take its toll on your family.

More about this beautiful man under the cut
Kaeya was the kind of fave where I looked at him and I said ah he’s pretty. He’s very pretty. If he has any substance as a character, I may end up faving him.
It turns out that all the characters in Genshin have a lot of substance so fksjfhasdjk and as an added bonus, he has HELLA angst! Which is like! My jam! Wow!
Kaeya is like...he appears always pretty happy and upbeat and like nothing gets him down but he’s shouldering a very, very heavy load on his shoulders and in his heart. His father, abandoning him in a foreign land to carry out a “mission”. A mission which now would mean betraying everyone he cares for. Way too much to put on a child. So much. It haunts him even now, I have no doubt.
He has no one he talks to about that. And that’s just so??? he needs to be loved and I am going to do it.
He’s just generally like!!! Really interesting as a character!!! He’s a brat for one and the only way to fluster this man is with emotional vulnerability which is wack. He’s also a “means to an end” kind of guy, and he kind of presents himself as lazy and yet he’s actually mentioned to be the knight who takes on the most work (after Jean). When I say “means to an end” I mean. His tactics are not always moral but Kaeya feels that so long as the outcome is correct it doesn’t much matter. For example, tricking protag (he canonically does this to Golden as well) into spreading rumors about a treasure so the treasure hoarders will pick up on it and go to the spot he’s led them to. He’s like I don’t see a problem because it worked out. Golden of course does see a problem but fkhjsdahasfj anyway
He’s also!!! Really thoughtful actually. He organizes a whole party to celebrate Jean and then passes the credit off to protag. He’s shy about doing something so nice and thoughtful for someone (hence the only way to fluster him is with emotional vulnerability...). That is just so endearing to me. He cares a great deal about his friends even if he doesn’t show it super well.
He is such a bastard in the comics too like Sir. Stop being so smug.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
LIKE EXCUSE ME??? cut that out. He’s so damn handsome and his eye is so pretty and I would like to kiss him
ALSO! He’s a really good unit? And like jesus he’s even prettier with a sword and his ice like SIR!!!! And his VOICE (his Chinese voice since I’ve been playing in Chinese though his English one wasn’t bad either from what I remember)!!! When he does his little chuckle I just die on the spot.
It’s his birthday tomorrow and I’ve seen the text you get from him and he’s lonely and apparently not used to celebrating his birthday and I’m 🥺 we’re going to celebrate the HELL out of it dude!!! I will NOT let him feel unloved ANY LONGER.

• WHAT IS THIS CATERPILLAR DOG THING UGH • it’s a legal requirement for thief children to have wack hair • kjsdgsd max snapped • i think i remember some people shipping manic with this kid • what animal are any of these characters supposed to be • that bungee jump thing makes no sense at all which is terrible • who gave sonic a drivers liscence • sonic your whole thing is to help people and then some poor kid comes in your van like “help me” and you’re like “why should i” what is the truth • shit dude that van turns on a dime • nobody in this show knows how to drive do they • this little goblin dude juggling is kinda cute, his design ain’t bad. weird colors but that’s a given • what sleet turns dingo into reminds me of the koopalings right down to the voice • is manic older than max or does he just say “little bro” because max looks even shorter than manic does • manic: stealing’s wrong   max:
Tumblr media
• max brings up a good point about like... how are they gonna survive without money from the shit they stole • i think i redesigned max at one point? i think i made him a xoloitzcuintli (those weird mexican hairless dogs)
Tumblr media
• OH I DID, this was back when i mainly did lineless art (it was easier doing art like this rather than lined art with a mouse, i haven’t tried this style with my drawing tablet yet), i really like what i did here skjdgs small boy • there’s two background characters with names, there’s a girl named allegra with a huge nose and some pig looking gremlin critter named clifton, i think that’s interesting • is it like a cultural thing for all the thieves to have earrings or did the character designers just go “yeah only punks have piercings” • sonia’s being really mean about their music for no reason when it doesn’t sound awful, just let these kids play their accordions and violins in peace dude • manic is a gross boy and spits all over this girl to show off one of his little tricks, disgusting • the headcanons about dingo involved something about this episode i think, i’d have to go digging through dms to remember tho • there’s this bird character between allegra and clifton who looks depressed as shit • sleet looks ugly enough to be a passable spore creature and i might just try that if i have to look at his nasty face any longer • i understand what manic means when he’s like “haha this whole thing reminds me of when i was little and stole shit all the time” because i was a little kleptomaniac when i was a kid and like... getting away with it is fun as shit. of course i feel bad now but like... hey i get it • for once the siblings yelling out of surprise has some energy to it, though i wish it was less like “oh aah” and more like... y’know, actual startled sounds, it’s not super convincing • sleet is standing there with his gaping maw wide open pointing in one direction with no animation like a statue and it’s weird • swatbots are on the same level of aiming as storm troopers • what even are these lasers? are they lethal?? do they hurt??? i don’t think anyone’s gotten hit from what i remember so like what’s the danger • sonic just fucking... vaccums up all these children with wind from running, he’s gonna hurt someone, he’s so damn reckless • WHERE’D THEY GO • the little animation where manic takes out his drums doesn’t look half bad! it’s a pleasant surprise when bits of animation are higher quality than normal
Tumblr media
• after saying that i realized his gloves disappeared in the shot i was just praising sndkgjds • how was the production of this show? did they color digitally or was this still in the time of hand-drawn animation cells? i wonder how rushed production was • is “amigas” proper spanish?   [googling]   yes it is nevermind   spanish class as a required class was pointless apparently because i don’t remember jack shit from it • dingo you aren’t allowed to steal the “main man” title from manic (my nickname in our discord server was “my main man, manic” for the longest time sjkdgbs)
Tumblr media
• it’s kinda neat seeing where all these pics my boyfriend gave me when i was looking for refs came from • i’ve thought that a song was gonna play tiwce now so now i’m wondering when it’ll come in and if it’ll be plot relevant • bummer majores • i get the point of “aw man i can’t believe you have to give all this money to robotnik because he’s evil and demands taxes” but hey either tax the rich or eat them dude • this old man’s outfit is horrendous • sonic and sonia just hid behind behind a thing hanging on the wall and that just wouldn’t work • manic and max both like drums... ;v; • why are manic and dingo just throwing glass bottles and shit back and forth at each other, is this a game • DINGO YOU HURT THE BOY • god what are these masks • SONG TIME • again, manic’s just talking in the middle of the song, and i get it’s for plot but the visuals are, again, sickeningly distracting, i can’t tell what’s happening • how does nobody notice the drummers changing place in the middle of the performance? how is there not a gap in the drum/cymbal beats? • these poor children, wow dingo • it’s really sweet that this old man helped the thief kids find parents and homes to go back to, that’s very nice • manic has one (1) coin and everyone takes that as evidence that he robbed the old man of all his money when that also doesn’t make sense, yes he took it from the vault thing but he didn’t take the whole thing? • why does manic just let the robot handcuff him, i know he feels guilty but like he isn’t an idiot, he knows what’ll happen if he does that so why does he??? • why do sonic and sonia immediately believe what sleet says about manic, shouldn’t they be on guard whenever this fuck’s around and have some suspension of belief here • this man went from 0 to 100 real quick huh • SONG TIME??? • i forgot that the song already happened because of my confusion during the sequence and now i feel like an idiot • anyway the song was like a 5.5/10, it has the energy i think they were going for and it doesn’t sound awful, it’s a little better than alright, though i wish the scene was more coherent and easy to follow • sonia’s classist as hell damn • sonic’s faith in manic being honest is nice to see • the thief children didn’t get their homes after this?? i’m upset • two bros laughing manically in the sewer in front of a very small crowd of children, as you do • manic talking to himself in jail kinda reminds me of movie!sonic but like... slower and less interesting, also why do they just throw him in jail? doesn’t robotnik roboticize everyone? • that one kid dares to look in max’s direction and he’s like ShShHhH like your hushing is gonna get you caught dude not that kid • MAX IS THROWING METAL THINGS IN THE BACKGROUND WHY??? YOU WERE SHUSHING THAT KID FOR SAYING NOTHING • max should be like... directly in sleet’s line of sight rn • of course they gotta very clearly explain the plot directly to the audience • everyone’s so shitty to these poor kids, damn • you’d think that huge laser blast would have injured manic in the process of blowing a hole in the wall • why’s sonia so concerned about the police chasing them? aren’t the police chasing them all the time? • manic nyooms again when he gets out of the van • these robots aren’t observant at all are they • for once, reusing animation makes sense • yay the poor kids get homes now • as nice as this ending is, it isn’t easy to kick bad habits like thievery, especially when it’s like... part of your nature at that point? it’s odd
Tumblr media
• god the perspective • also, this is exactly why i give everyone on this blog extended muzzles and more clear divides between their eyes when they’re looking to the side, otherwise they look cursed • IT’S TIME TO JUICE AND JAM

Im glad!!! Alex is rly cool I promise im trying to do him as much justice as possible, and me and the squad have been having such a time with sharks oh my god, im glad we were able to brighten ur quarantine haha
as for the adri thing i gotta say thats kinda wack, but ill humor you and say that 1. i dont think itd be very fun to bite into adri bc hes truly just made of sentient, horrendously sharp goop and 2. trying to consume him is probably THE worst idea. like for real. have you seen the one scene from LIFE (2017) where ryan reynolds gets absolutely nae nae’d ? yeah
Tumblr media
it took me a google search to find out who the hell these people were and i can say 1. i have NEVER watched mean girls so i have no idea what to tell you, and 2. ironically i did draw adri as karen for a shitpost like just 2 days ago (the ‘oh my god karen you cant just ask people why theyre white’ meme) 
Tumblr media
huh, i didnt remember this one but i apparently did listen to it at some point bc it was marked as watched on my yt but i have no recollection of it sjkdlfsdhj
i watched it again and yeah this also definitely qualifies as ‘an experience’. its super interesting but not really my jam unfortunately

Tumblr media
((Long post but Let’s Go!!))
So First I have to say, my art is mostly based on me going fast and on everything being fluid and I-don’t-give-a-heck jdjjd so Basically I’m not going to talk about proportions or anything because thinking about it usually makes my art stiffer and just ugh. I’m a dumbass!
I’m gonna approach how I draw humans for this so FIRST!! I start like most people. With the Head.
Tumblr media
I just start with a circle and slap on whatever head shape I want ((Be careful btw! U gotta think of the head as a 3D object or else ur hair-eyes-ears placement is gonna look Wack)) I usually go down to the shoulders before adding the expression because IM NOT A GOOD EXAMPLE- U should probably draw the entire silhouette first but it’s more fun for me this way....... plus the expression sometimes helps me with the position of the body soo.
Tumblr media
I really like to have fun and exaggerate with my style! (I know I could exaggerate things more but shh)) so I guess my advice for expressions : Make Your Characters Ugly. If they feel an intense emotion they ain’t gonna be all uwu!! They’re gonna have eyebrow wrinkles things and super opened mouth and eyes going all over the place!!! Have FUN!! Woop woop!! Make Em Ugly.
Ok so Next Let’s get to the body and I’ll use Mr Baby Boi Mike for this.
Tumblr media
So once again I’m a bad example because 1. I sometimes draw the clothes with no silhouette underneath and 2. I don’t care about proportions and I just see what looks nice to me....
So I start with a Super Quick silhouette. It’s about getting the action in there, getting stuck on details at the very beginning is going to make your drawings STIFF AF. So get all the action out and scribble away with what comes first to ur brain. Have Fun !
Tumblr media
Then add the clothes but again, QUICKLY!! ((This took me barely 40 seconds)) just get them in! Of course at the end look it all over and do whatever minor fixes u want but I’m all about fluidity and being free and having fun! (Of course if you can’t do it as fast it’s perfectly normal, I had the luck of having supportive parents who got me art classes and I’ve been drawing for 6 years now so if you’re a beginner, take it at your own pace!!)
Next I lightly erase the sketch with a kneaded eraser and I get to inking! Now inking is something people notice a lot about my art! And I’m very happy about it and it’s so Easy so here’s my Art Trademark thing !
Tumblr media
1. First layer of ink! Boring isn’t it ? There’s no changement in the thickness of the lines and it’s just *yawn* eh. (Also at this point I erased the sketch))
Tumblr media
2. WOAH!!! What happened there fam??? Simple ! I just applied a second layer of ink with the same pen (usually an 0.3 water resistant black pen) and here’s the kicker. I deliberately let my hand fuck up lines and fill in the little space it created to create the blobby line thickness changes ! It’s so simple and it allows you to mess up isn’t it wonderful! Bob Ross would be proud. Also with a 0.1 pencil, you can add small details such as freckles, scars, blushes or a bunch of little lines to show a black space.
Next is color! Keep in mind that I mainly use watercolor!
Tumblr media
Oh gosh mildly-boring-first-layer is back. I just put down the base colors, chose the theme And! Something I started doing recently is leaving a few white spaces where the light is hitting. (It helps me with knowing where the light is coming from and overall a cool effect 😎)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And FINALLY!! I add any shading and funky color variations I want! It is mainly achieved by putting down the color I want to use and jamming my brush at the paper. I also Love working the face at this stage! Adding the blush, purple eye bags if the character deserves a nap, adding some shading over the eyes and around the mouth (it’s so fun and can add a Lot surprisingly) I also add a light wash of the same color wherever there’s white because I don’t like having just straight up white (teeths, white of the eyes, the white on the shoes...) and for this one I made the light source yellow! And I said it before and I’ll say it Again : Don’t shade an object with black or grey unless the object is black. Either use the same color but darker or use purple or blue or smt! Black will suck the life out of your drawing and it’s gonna look muddy.
Ok well I guess that’s it for a very non-detailed drawing process hdhd! If you want any information about something more specific, please do ask me or DM me! I love teaching whatever I can and it’s not a bother cause I’m very passionate about drawing and I love to talk about it ! Also I’m not a teacher and your art is whatever you want it to be, this is just how I do things. If you like my art and want to ask me for more art related things, go over to my Art/Main blog : @heuffopla !
Have fun ! 🌸🌼
