#Like she obviously is affectionate toward all her children

The Green family dynamics are so interesting because like, Viserys is the father but due to his decay he seems more like the grandfather, whereas Otto is the Grandsire but seems to fill out the role of a father more, not only to his daughter but also her children, so he and his daughter are a mother/father unit but in some situations Alicent is treated like a sibling to her children (by Otto) and then you have the obvious Helaena/Aegon happening (siblings who are also husband/wife and mother/father to their children), but at the same time it seems like Aemond is the one trying to be the family's protector and attempting to step up as patriarch, with some of the scenes between him and Alicent giving off the vibes of equals rather than Mother and Son (like when they discuss Aemond finding Aegon) and his relationship with Aegon seeming like he's the big brother and not the other way around, in this essay I will-

The welcome party was an interesting touch to the new-comers. It was so weirdly reminiscent of the old world with the nice clothes and good food and alcohol but at the same time, many in the room carried that haunted look in their eyes from the hell just outside the walls. But the food was fresh and the company was pleasant enough.
Carl had scrambled off a couple minutes ago, presumably to try and sneak some whiskey behind his father’s back, leaving you alone with a sleepy Judith perched on your wide hip. Her chunky hand tightly clutched at your shirt as her big blue eyes fluttered.
“Mama.” She muttered, nuzzling further into your hold. You gently cupped the back of her head and began to sway softly. 
“We’ll leave soon, just need to find your dads and make sure they don’t get into any trouble.” Your eyes skipped over the crowd but you were quickly stopped by someone coming up beside you.
“It’s so good to see healthy children during these times.” Deanna seemed less focused on you and more on the now half-asleep child in your arms, which you were incredibly grateful for considering that your poker face wasn’t as good as it used to be and she legitimately freaked you out.
Judith grumbled as you hitched her higher on your hip. “Judy is an easy baby, pretty much eats anything that gets put in front of her.” You chuckled and pressed a kiss to the top of her head.
“You and Rick must be very proud of your kids.” 
Your eyes widened. “Oh, it’s not-“
A strong arm was suddenly wrapped around your thick waist and you were tugged back into their hard stomach. The scent of cigarettes and motor oil filled your senses as Daryl’s lips brushed against your earlobe. You watched as Deanna went pale, obviously coming to her own conclusion about your relationship with the archer.
“I-I didn’t realise, given how affectionate you are with the kids, I thought Rick was your partner.” You could feel Daryl’s broad chest rumble with discontent.
“So what if he is?” The noise from the party faded away to a faint whisper as all eyes turned to you. Internally, you groaned, vowing to get some sort of revenge on your boyfriend.
“I’m sorry?” Deanna seemed genuinely confused but you knew that whatever was about to come out of Daryl’s mouth would not serve to lessen that feeling.
With your free hand, you dug your fingers into his hip, urging him to shut the hell up but like always, Daryl refused to listen. “So what if we’re both fucking her?”
And there it was. Your body sagged with embarrassment as heat raced up your neck, blooming across your cheeks. “You fucking asshole.” Your group all seemed to be holding back their laughter as the Alexandrians were suddenly incredibly uncomfortable. You heard Carl groan loudly from somewhere behind you. “Not again.”
“Both of them?” Spencer materialised beside his mother, jaw practically on the floor. “At the same time?”
Just as Daryl’s mouth opened once more to very rudely answer the mayor’s son, Rick’s hand on his shoulder stopped him. His grip was light enough to appear friendly but the way his fingers curled into his collarbone kept the other man silent. “What Daryl meant to say is that we are all in a relationship together.”
You then made the mistake of making eye contact with Maggie and Carol who both seemed to be on the edge of suffocation as they desperately tried to stop giggling. You glared at the women and got back a rather rude gesture from Carol that restarted their laughter anew.
“I think I need to get Judy to bed.” You tried to pull away from Daryl’s grip but the stubborn man he was, he just held you tighter.
“How does that work?” The question came from a woman towards the back. You could practically feel Rick’s smirk as he cleared his throat but very quickly, another woman decided to answer for him.
“Obviously they take turns.” A murmur of agreement filled the room followed by- “Oh her poor vagina.” This makes Glenn snort into his drink.
With a horrified look on her face, Deanna spoke again. “This is highly inappropriate.” Yet no one seemed to hear her because someone else piped up.
“I can’t believe that she isn’t pregnant all the time.”
“I think that’s enough of that! Thank you all for the wonderful party, but we really should be going now.” Your voice boomed, starling Judith awake but that was the least of your concerns at the moment. Daryl went easily enough as your fingers clamped down on his wrist and you pulled him along, although there was a prideful smile on his lips.
But Rick had other ideas. “It’s not like we don’t try every chance we get.” Faster than you thought you were capable of, you dropped Daryl’s hand and your arm darted out, grabbing Rick’s ear with a force that made him visibly flinch.
“I said that’s enough.” You snarled and tugged him towards the front door, Daryl trailing close behind you. “Goodnight.” The door slammed shut behind you, leaving behind a room full of stunned Alexandrians and your friends who were all laughing loudly.
“Well, I guess that cleared that up.” Deanna murmured and took a long pull of her drink.

Imagine with a Reader who literally have many dogs like their house is literally full of dogs and puppy??imagine Chuuya decide to visit his s/o then he saw many dogs
anon you are an absolute genius
The Man and the Puppies
Tumblr media
♡ pairing: Chuuya Nakahara x gn!Reader
♡ synopsis: Chuuya is a dog lover and you're a dog owner, and he finally gets to meet all of your puppies.
♡ wc: 838
♡ cw: Dogs (duh lol), swearing, Chuuya and reader are in an established relationship.
note: I HAD TO DO THIS OKAY?? CHUUYA IS THE ONLY DOG PERSON IN THIS SHOW. I have two puppies and I think he would love them and treat them super well :') As always apologies for errors and please enjoy!
Tumblr media
"Holy shit..."
You were half-expecting such a reaction from your boyfriend, but the sheer amount of joy and wonder in his eyes drew a smile out of you. For a while now, you'd impatiently been awaiting the day where you would introduce Chuuya to your dogs (of which there were...many), knowing how he had such a sweet soft spot for the animal. The often suave and collected Chuuya had been excited like a child on the way to your place, asking about breeds, names, ages and just about every other detail you could provide. It was truly adorable how eager he was to meet your puppies.
Chuuya stepped into your home, so enamoured with your pets that he almost forgot to close the door. You knelt down to give pats and attention to the dogs that ran up to you in excitement to hop on you and lick your face. Your partner blithely observed as you interacted with your beloved pets, until he noticed a petite white Maltese leave the small crowd before you and approach him, staring up at him curiously.
"Hey there, tiny," Chuuya knelt down and locked eyes with the puppy. "How're you?" The dog leaped up and pawed at his chest, and Chuuya scooped her up in his arms before seating himself on the floor. She wasted no time in befriending him- that is to say, licking his face.
"I guess she likes you," You smiled. "She doesn't usually behave so friendly around new people."
"Is that right?" he asked, grinning down at her. "She's a beauty, for sure."
"She's one of the younger ones," you explained. Another one of your dogs, a brown and white bulldog, wandered up to you and took a seat next to you. You reached over and rubbed his head. "Hey, buddy! This is Chuuya! Say hi!" Obviously, he didn't say anything, but he did cast his large black eyes towards the redhead holding his sister.
"What's he like?" Chuuya asked, watching the bulldog.
"He's just a lazy little guy," you grinned affectionately at the dog. "He loves to have his tummy rubbed, don'tcha, fella?" As if he knew what was coming next, the bulldog slowly rolled over onto his back, to be met with a barrage of scratches to his stomach. He stretched out his small arms as you did so. Chuuya watched with a peaceful smile on his face.
"Do you all want tummy rubs?" You continued, reaching out to scratch another one of your dogs' stomachs. "Come on, all of you!"
"You're so cute with your dogs, hon," Chuuya beamed. "I'm almost jealous."
"Don't worry, Chuu, you're still my favourite," you turned back to him jokingly. "Now that you've met my puppies, though, you're obliged to help me take care of them and give them your attention, too."
"Alright, then. What's that entail?"
"Well, you're their daddy now. You need to help me feed them, clean up their shit, and play with them and give them little kisses on their tiny heads."
"That's fine..." he replied, still admiring you in your sea of dogs. It almost appeared as if they were your children, in a way. Chuuya wondered how it would be if the two of you did have a kid, but quickly brushed off the thought. "I'm not gonna be around all the time though."
"Just move in with me," you shrugged. "It's not that hard."
"No, you move in with me. My place is bigger. It'll fit all the dogs." Chuuya had just been going with the flow of the conversation, so he didn't actually realise the implication of what he'd said until you glanced at him, your expression sincere.
"...you want me to move into your place?" You asked, softly. "...and the dogs too? Like, you're actually willing to help me take care of them? I was only kidding when I said you were obliged to help me-"
"Y/N," he interrupted, firmly. "First of all, I fuckin' love dogs." You chuckled. "More importantly, I fuckin' love you. I'd be so happy if you moved in with me, and if you bought your dogs along. It'd be great to come home to see you and them every day. It'd be like..." Chuuya glanced down at the Maltese in his arms and traced a finger over her head, "...kinda like having a little family of my own. But that's only if you wanna move in with me, I mean."
"...Chuuya..." You reached out and took his gloved hand in your own, a genuine smile across your face. "You sappy bastard, of course I wanna move in with you."
Chuuya let out a small laugh. "And the dogs?"
"Yeah, I guess I'll bring them too," you huffed, ironically. He laughed once more, before leaning over to press his lips to your cheek.
"Love you, babe."
"I love you too, Chuuya." you sighed. The puppy in Chuuya's arms suddenly yapped, catching the attention of the both of you. "Hey, she says 'I love you', too!"

Well that got mushier than I thought it would! Shout out to my dogs I love them with all my heart 🌸 they actually helped me write this they were my beta readers

So, I love all of your OCs so far! I’ve been wondering: how would the yanderes feel about a darling with a young kid? (To make it simple, other parent isn’t in the picture, aside from maybe sending money.) Please, thank you, and have good day!
i decided to answer this for all of my yandere ocs bc im a sucker for found family/single parent tropes 🫶 cw! spoilers for future ocs + mentions of child neglect
Tumblr media
🚼 the yanderes x single parent darling
⛪️ | abraham would be a bit surprised, to say the least. but he comes from a community where people get married and have kids the moment they’re out of high school (if not the moment they become adults) so while he would be sort of caught off guard, he’d adapt pretty quickly. he’d definitely fantasize about becoming a little family unit, probably even subtly propose the idea of expanding every so often. he wouldn’t exactly love your child — at least, definitely not the way he loves you — but you wouldn’t be able to tell with how well he treats them.
🚬 | the delinquents would be more like four older brothers more than anything. theyre all a bit too young to take on a proper parental role, nor would any of them have a real desire to, but they’d definitely have fun sharing their singular shared braincell with your kid. your child would probably grow up to be a massive little troublemaker thanks to their influence, but that’s why you love them, right? if the other parent is still involved one way or another though, they’d immediately put a stop to that. no reason to be involved with your ex now that they’re in the picture.
🌲 | mykolas would be curious of your child. he’s never seen such a young human up close before (considering he was always accused of eating them) so having a chance to actually be around one would be a new experience for him. he’d quickly start to refer to your child as his own, calling them his cub more than their name and carry them around on his shoulders or head whenever they go out together. it wouldn’t be uncommon to see him protectively curled up around them while they’re taking a nap.
🪸 | similarly to mykolas, the mermaids would be sort of curious about your child, though arguably less so as they have seen human children before. they have a very vague understanding of how to care for your child and would constantly search the sea for things that could come in handy for caring for them — you can expect to have a constant supply of eroded toys and suspiciously good quality clothes for them. they’d also try to teach them things that they’d teach the fry of their pods, though obviously they can only do so much teaching something that isn’t meant to live in the sea lol.
💪 | valentina grew up as a parentified older sibling, so while she wouldn’t particularly enthused about taking the role again so soon after getting out of it, she’d be capable of adapting to the role. she knows how to take care of a child and would ensure your kid’s cared for when they’re being watched by her, but she probably wouldn’t be able to establish much of an emotional connection to them without making an active effort to. but she does love children, so she’d learn to love yours too.
👑 | althea would hate your child. plain and simple. she’d view them as the living embodiment of you not keeping your promise to her, of you giving your love to someone else before she had the chance to have you to herself. while she’d never overtly mistreat your child, she’d be incredibly cold toward them and try to find reasons to avoid interacting with them. they’d be spoiled relentlessly with the hopes that if she gave them everything they’d need to live, neither you or her would have to deal with them.
🥩 | rhodes wouldn’t think much of your kid for the most part, but they’d express a gentle fondness for them the few times they do meet them. they’d affectionately greet them, offer them a treat, and hold a little conversation with them to keep them busy for a bit while you run errands or eat or whatever you need to do. they’re kind of awkward with children given they have nothing in common with them and have little experience with them, but surprisingly they’re a natural with yours.
🫀 | melchior has no interest in human kids. therefore they wouldn’t care much for yours, seeing your child more like a pet or something along those lines rather than a sapient being. their treatment of them would reflect that; they wouldn’t be necessarily mean or anything, but they’d be a bit patronizing and talk at them more than they’d talk to them. it isn’t out of malice, they’d genuinely think that that’s how you interact with children and any attempts to correct them would be met with confusion and frowns.
🕷️ | the alt kids would be wonderful parents to your kid. they’d more or less be sort of a mix of abe and the delinquents, but with the added bonus that they’d care deeply for your child as they’d see them as an extension of you rather than a mix of you with someone else. they’d come up with a system to help your child have a good upbringing and stick with it — faust would take up helping them study, anton would teach them manners and etiquette, and delta would help them with their social life. they’re so good for you and your child, see? they live for the idea that them treating your child well and loving them will make you love them all more in turn.

random phantom troupe headcanons / thoughts
Tumblr media
including: chrollo, shalnark, feitan, nobunaga, illumi, general phantom troupe
warnings: possible spoilers, nsfw, brief mention of torture, lightly proof-read
chrollo is really into astrology. when you think about his character it makes a lot of sense. chrollo believes in fate and destiny, and how we cannot change it. that’s why he’s so amused by characters like hisoka and gon, because they try to change their destiny. and one of astrology's main themes is destiny and fate. astrology gives people identities, something that chrollo is constantly looking for outside of himself. because he cant accept that he is himself. i would go more into the astrology topic, but i don’t know enough about it to get into great detail without sharing misinformation.
shalnark and feitan aren’t that different from each other. both are scarily sadistic it just manifests in different ways. shalnark is generally very friendly and one of the more outgoing phantom troupe members. he’s a nice dude, but he’s not kind. niceness is like a mask, it’s a common courtesy. kindness comes from the heart. i think the only genuinely kind member is nobunaga, but i’ll get into that later. shalnark is more of a psychological torture guy, while feitan is more into traditional torture.
okay back to nobunaga. i very much think that he is the only truly kind member of the troupe. (this headcanon is not based on how he was as a child by the way) i recently read a nobunaga analysis (here) and it only furthered my belief in this headcanon. simply the way he feels for others is very kind, and how he acted towards gon and uvo specifically. as well as some parts in the manga. he’s definitely very compassionate and understanding, especially compared to the other members. i think some of the other members are capable of kindness, but they wouldn’t be described as “kind”. two other members that come to mind are chrollo and pakunoda. they are both quite compassionate, as seen during their sentimental moments. (chrollo when reacting to members’ deaths and paku’s pre-death gun scene and her small interaction with the cat) but i wouldn’t call them “kind”, but instead more in-tune with their emotions. but, i think deep down inside all people are capable of kindness, so it can be hard to say.
illumi isn’t as clueless about love as the fandom makes him out to be. his only real reference for “love” is his parents, and they actually really love each other. knowing how kikyo is, she’s probably very doting with silva like she is with her children. and silva seems pretty compassionate as seen in his interactions with killua. silva also showed genuine concern for kikyo’s safety when killua threatened to kill her during the election arc. illumi has definitely learned from that, even if he doesn’t fully understand it. he wouldn’t be the best partner, but he’s more affectionate than he comes off. and i also firmly believe that he is not a virgin. i wouldn’t say he gets around like hisoka and chrollo, but he definitely has a few bodies. he’s human too, and he understands that he has human needs.
a good handful of the troupe members get around frequently. i read a headcanon saying some of the members have had sexual and romantic encounters with each other and I AGREE. i think the members who sleep around the most are (in order) hisoka (obviously), uvo, chrollo, and shalnark. maybe phinks but I think he’s so angry and intense because of how pent-up he is. i also think paku and nobunaga are the types to have intense flings with people every now and then… and they can last months. some members i think do not get around are machi, franklin, and feitan. they’re just not very interested and are too busy. i think shizuku is in the middle. i don’t think she’s a virgin and she has partners once in a while but she’s not actively pursuing sex. she just goes with the flow.
the troupe members dynamics are constantly changing. i feel like there’s very clear friend groups inside the troupe. like uvo, nobu, and shalnark are a very clear group in my eyes. as well as phinks and feitan. i feel like chrollo and pakunoda are a part of their little group together. i think the others are more loner types, but the original members still all share a special bond. member-to-member conflict happens a lot in the troupe, you can see this with nobunaga and some of his interactions with franklin and machi. I don’t think anyone dislikes each other (not including hisoka) but tension is common.
anyways... thank you for reading! this is my first post in forever lol (i’m a bit embarrassed….tbh lol)

Pairing: Kagaya Ubuyashiki x reader
Content warning: Character was neglected as a kid, slight verbal abuse.
Word count: 706 words
Readers sex: female
Summary: Kagaya finds his wife. (I’m sorry😭, it’s bland, but I didn’t want to give it all away.)
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Kagaya
Kagaya is the head of the Ubyashiki clan, his family made a deal with the (L/N) clan that he would marry one of their many, many children. He was now on his quest to get his future wife.
The (L/N) clan have mastered the cherry blossom breathing style, they are a very driven clan. Kagaya met the best of the best, but he was more intrigued by you.
You were filthy, you had messy hair, and you were obviously malnourished. “What’s your name?” Kagaya asked you as he extended a hand to help you up. You trembled in fear, as you accepted his hand, getting up. “I… I’m (Y/n) (L/N).. who are you..?” You whispered.
“My name is Kagaya Ubuyashiki, I am the leader of the demon slayer corps.” He smiled at you as he led you away from your family. “How’s your day been, dear?” He asked as he led you to a cherry blossom tree.
“…the same as always..” you whispered as you sat down infront of the tree. He smiled as he sat down beside you, “they don’t treat you very well do they?” He asked as he brushed some of you hair out of your face.
You looked down as you shook your head no, “how would you like to be my wife.. if you don’t want to, you don’t have to.” He spoke with a smile as he held your fragile hand.
You looked up at him with tears in your eyes, “does that mean I get to leave..” you whispered. He smiled as he nodded and lifted you back up. “You get to leave and help me serve as the leader of the demon slayer corps; I’ve met your other siblings, but none compare to you.” He spoke as he led you back into the main room.
“I want (Y/N) to be my wife.” Kagaya spoke with a smile as he began to lead you out, “You can’t choose her! She’s the weakest, surely she’d be no use to you.” Your father spoke standing infront of the door.
“Please move out of my way, she is the perfect fit. I want none of your other children.” He spoke calmly staring at your father. He growled before stepping aside, “Don’t bring that trash back!”
Kagaya smiled as he left the grounds with you, “Now it’s time for a better life..”
Kagaya has practically nursed you back to health, he gave you a roof over your head, food whenever you wanted, and he was overall the most caring soul you’ve ever met.
You’ve grown custom to his company, so when he left to go recruit the stone hashira without you, you finally realized how much you had grown to love him.
You were eating some food waiting for him to get home, you were looking at the land that he had built. It’s was honestly beautiful, the same could be said about the man. You were caught up in your thoughts, so you didn’t hear the door open.
“I’m back, Dear.” He spoke gently from behind you as he approached you. You sat your food down and ran to him, you wrapped your arms around his slim waist, and put your head on his chest.
“I missed you so much Kagaya… how was your travels.” You asked as you looked up at him with a big smile, glad to finally have him back.
The two of you haven’t really been affectionate toward each other in your marriage, so when Kagaya suddenly got the urge to kiss you, he felt nervous.
“Dear… I want to kiss you… may I..?” He asked nervously, you smiled even bigger (if that’s possible). You placed your lips on his softly, placing your hand on his chest. He tighten his grip around your waist, as he brought a hand up to your cheek.
“You don’t have to ask, I’m your wife silly.” You giggled when you pulled away, he smiled down at you and placed another kiss on your lips.
“I know, you’re mine..”

SFW Alphabet: Farah Karim
-(GN Reader)-
Tumblr media
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
- Farah's not overly affectionate, especially when there's people around, but she does give it through small gestures.
- Running her hand across your back when she passes by, patting you on the shoulder just a little bit longer than she does to the others, 'jokingly' patting your head when you do something for her etc.
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
- The type of friend that has your back but also is the one to give you a hard reality check when needed.
- To be friends with her you'd have to at least be part of the military, I feel like Farah would keep civilians at arms distance for their own sake.
- Maybe you're apart of the 141 or you were hired to work alongside them and that's how you met Farah and Alex.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
- Due to time constraints, cuddling is something that's sporadic.
- But when you do get the time to, it will most likely be in the morning, after you two finally manage to get a full night's sleep and wake up entangled with each other.
- Farah's definitely the big spoon 9/10 times. (I will take no criticism on that 😌)
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
- When her country's occupation ends, then perhaps.
- But even the idea of settling down is something Farah can't afford to think about right now.
- In terms of chores, I think Farah can cook and she'd be alright with doing it that day if you prefer to clean but cleaning is definitely her preferred chore, keeps her more occupied.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
- Farah is probably as straight forward as it gets.
- Obviously she's not happy about any of this and even if the relationship ends on bad terms she doesn't purposefully want to upset you but she's just going to come straight out with it.
- She seems quite cold during it but that's just how Farah's learned to handle situations, emotional detachment.
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
- Farah's pretty neutral on it.
- She wouldn't mind marrying you one day, if that's what you want, but she isn't in a rush too.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
- Suprisingly, Farah's touch can actually be very gentle even with all the calluses her hands have.
- Emotionally Farah isn't going to be aggressive nor overly soft towards you, she's mature enough to step away from a conversation if she's sees it's going nowhere and if need be is willing to readdress things once you've both calmed down.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
- Please give her a hug (In private).
- Farah is so touch starved it's concerning but keep it to a minimum since it might become to much for her if you constantly want to touch her.
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
- I can see Farah saying that she cares about you to begin with instead of love but either after a significant amount of time has passed and trust has been established or a particularly dangerous situation arises that almost kills one of you I can see Farah saying it when everything calms down.
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they're jealous?)
- Farah's eerily calm, on the outside.
- Girl has a temper and isn't immune to jealousy but she also trusts you to make it clear that you're taken/set boundaries and won't intervene unless necessary.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
- Give Farah forehead kisses now.
- Farah's kisses are quick and swift, she probably just sticks to your lips or your cheek if you two are in a semi-public place.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
- Most of the time when Farah ends up around children it's not for a good reason, all she thinks about is making sure they're safe and just feels pity if anything, especially since she knows how they feel.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
- Farah wakes up first, no debate about that.
- Since you're most likely a soldier too, if you need help waking up in the mornings then Farah is happy to help (she's probably going to tip you out of the bed 😶) but if you do wake up around the same time as her then she'd have some breakfast set up for you to share with her.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
- Farah's sleep schedule is all over the place so some nights she'll come to bed and other nights she won't.
- Farah's a rough sleeper so unless you also have the same problems then this is going to be an awkward arrangement of Farah trying to not disturb you.
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
- Definitely reveals things slowly and in small parts.
- Farah would let a few things slip while you two are just friends, things you could deem as pretty insignificant but are important enough for Farah to remember.
- Anything more serious though, like her family or life before Urzikstan's occupation, would be solely for your ears when you two are officially dating and she has a lot more trust in you.
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
- Farah is both calm and easily angered at the same time, it's actually scary.
- Having to bite her tongue sometimes has helped with her patience over the years but Farah's still quick to bite if pushed far enough.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
- She's probably going to remember a lot of what you tell her, maybe not everything since she's still human and is bound to forget the smaller things.
- Farah being an older sibling I know she remembers some random embarrassing thing you let slip one time, probably thinking she forgot about it when really she's just waiting to tease you about it when the times right.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
- When you comforted her after Hadir's death but didn't coddle her.
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
- Like previously mentioned Farah trusts you to make your own decisions, if you can handle it she'll leave it alone but if you ask for her help she's there.
- In terms of you protecting her, just keep an eye out for her on the field, while still keeping your own safety in mind obviously.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
- Since she's probably going to end up missing a few important celebrations due to circumstances, Farah will try to go as all out as she can to make up for what's she missed.
- She'd keep your input in mind though, if you prefer a more private affair then she'd set up a comfortable evening for just you two, if you're more sociable then she's sure the other fighters would be glad to have something to celebrate.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
- Overworking herself.
- Farah's someone who wants to keep going not matter what, even if she's injured or there isn't much she can do at that time.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
- Not very concerned at all.
- Of course she makes sure she looks presentable but she's a soldier so whether she looks put together by the end of the day is another story.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
- Not incomplete, if you were killed then she'd probably hold your memory close alongside her family's, it'd be like a chasm in her chest, hurtful and crippling sometimes when she thinks about it for too long but it's not something she'll let debilitate her.
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
- Probably assigns you and Alex to do some random task together when she wants some peace and quiet.
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn't like, either in general or in a partner?)
- Someone who constantly thinks they know better, Farah's willing to take advice from some people but if you're going to undermine her or don't respect her input then she's not going to be too fond of you.
Z = Zzz (Sleep habits of theirs?)
- Farah being someone who definitely has PTSD she probably struggles to fall asleep and when she finally does she's pretty restless.
- I don't see her being someone that uses sleeping pills but she might try natural ways like counting sheep, exercising etc.

I'm ashamed of the Cod fandom for not writing more content for her 😔👊
Also college seems to be the best place for me to write since I'm too bored to do anything else.

I just had an idea for the saddest, funniest Star Wars AU.
Padmé actually does get resurrected!
It would suck!
it will also take a lot of text to explain...
The Setup
from her perspective, ROTS happens, she gives her kids to Bail and Obi-wan for safety, dies, then wakes up in her gosh darn burial clothes in front of THAT SLEEMO, SHEEV PALPATINE and this ominous dark cyborg who IS HER HUSBAND, who explains to her that he needed to genocide the Jedi to bring her back to life, and also nobody can find Obi-wan, and also Obi-wan and Palpatine mutilated your husband.
so she'd obviously have a breakdown, and fall into mourning for... basically everything she's ever loved or known.
Palpatine is of course aware of the threat Padmé poses, so she'd be watched like a hawk. Just in general she'd live in a gilded cage, because she has access to pretty much all of the Empire's resources, but can't say what she believes openly with the Emperor always watching.
What she'd do about it
As horrible as all of this was, she deals with it like she does any other tragedy, with calculated determination and faith. She absolutely, 90000%, would support the rebels, not in spite of being married to Darth Vader, but more because she wants his path of evil to be as rough as possible, and for his evil boss who regularly tortures him to die.
she's also not going to hide that she's married to "Darth Vader", and probably would also be very openly affectionate because:
after going through all that, nobody can tell her she has to also keep their marriage secret still.
he's not yours Palpatine, he's mine. He's not your slave, he is my husband, who I am married to, don't you forget it you Sith sack of slime.
to remind herself, him, and any onlookers that this tall dark brooding monster does still have a heart locked inside there.
while she would hate to admit it, there is a rush that comes from being the only person who's allowed to act that way with "Darth Vader".
the only thing she'd keep from the public is his true name, because of the threats she gets from Palpatine if she does. She'd absolutely still use it in private though, even if her husband hates it, because she's not dignifying any this Sith nonsense.
she would have to keep her marriage secret in the rebellion, except from Mon and Bail, because aside from those two, nobody is going to trust "Darth Vader's Wife", regardless of how good her intel is.
As for her kids.... she'd have to leave them. she trusts Bail and Obi-wan (wherever he is) to take care of them way better than she and "Vader" can with the Emperor breathing down their necks. It would be hard to keep that secret from Anakin, but fortunately he'd recognize a "miscarriage" as a sore subject she wouldn't want to talk about.
What Anakin would do about it
mostly feel like hot garbage.
In his anger he murdered his own wife, so from now on he'll act as if she were made of glass. He can't afford to loose her again.
He can tell she's hiding something from him, but every time he asks about it, he gets the same response of "remember how you did unspeakable things for me? I might have to do some for you, don't worry about it", which he supposes is fair, but Palpatine does not trust her intentions.
oh right... Palpatine.
He doesn't want to have to choose between Palpatine and her, but they both quietly fight over him all the time. Palpatine will ask him to kneel, Padmé will immediately do something sugary to reclaim him as her husband, Palpatine counters, she counters, on and on and on and it's exhausting, even without the threat of him and her getting electrocuted. At times he might even hide Padmé from the Emperor, both to protect her, and to save the headache.
while she still shows affection towards him, their marriage is obviously not doing well. so dang it he'll give her whatever he can, time, attention, gifts, political power, her children (once he discovers they exist), whatever he can get his cybernetic hands on.
How everyone else would react/the funny part
The general public: it would be the hottest drama in the galaxy. Padmé dies, people hold a massive funeral, and then she comes back. there's a lot of confusion, and she's of course changed, but it verifiably is her. And now she's married to some Imperial higher-up called "Lord Vader", and claims they've been secretly married for years but are finally coming out with it. Nobody would shut up about this or stop speculating, except under threat of criminal punishment.
Mon Mothma: revulsion honestly. the first time everyone saw Padmé and Vader making out at Padmé's anti-funeral, she downs her champagne flute like a shot. but eventually she finds out Padmé wants to join the Rebellion, and any allies are welcome at a time like this.
Bail Organa: Happy to see her alive! but also confused, as he's pretty sure he saw her die. She's also now married to this "Vader" fellow, despite the fact that he's pretty sure she was married to Anakin... and there is no good resolution to that snag. she explains the situation to him, and that she wants to join the Rebellion, and he accepts.
her children are another issue, but she thankfully doesn't ask for Leia back, so he'll do the best he can to raise her, occasionally including Padmé in Leia's life when it's safe to.
Vader's underlings and other Imps: in a word, pissed. Vader is known for being violent, except around his wife. here is walking proof he can be gentle, he just chooses not to be, because you're all beneath him.
Obi-Wan: honestly not much different than canon, he can't help Anakin, he can't help Padmé, he's just going to do the best he can with Luke.
Palpatine: has made a grave mistake. this was a bad idea, this was such a bad idea, she keeps getting in the way, he can't just kill her again, why did he do this? it doesn't matter now, he can still work with this, he can bend it to his favor, he just needs to be clever.
Ahsoka: that bastard murdered her master and stole his wife. She's going to kill him. Might end up on an awkward rescue mission that ends with her learning some things she'd rather not know.
Thrawn: morbid curiosity and respectful suspicion. given that this "Lord Vader" shows up out of nowhere with the only known fact about him being that he's married to the senator of Naboo, he honestly suspects some form of identity fraud is at play. Finding Vader's identity becomes one of his research projects, and his marriage becomes his favorite soap opera to look into when he's bored.
Leia: really mad that her mother was right there this whole time, and she never got to know until she was older. also very very mad that their marriage was across political factions, meaning their marital issues literally got millions of people killed. very very much wants Padmé to just dump him.
Luke: gosh darn it he's going to patch this hot mess of a family up with duct-tape if he has too. he hates every inch of this drama as much as everyone else, but he's going to do something about it.

What pets the slashers would get with their S/O
Includes: Jason, Michael, Pinhead, Bubba, and Vincent
Jason Vorhees
The whole entire forest honestly
In all seriousness though, you guys are surrounded by wildlife so you’d mostly get your animal fill with feeding the squirrels and the birds and maybe a deer or two that come around your cabin.
I can see you guys maybe adopting a large dog like a German Shepard or something, but dogs require a lot of care and getting food, taking them to the vet, and all of that stuff would be a lot of work especially since Jason doesn’t really leave the camp.
So while you guys would adopt any stray animals that end up in the camp, you probably wouldn’t go out of your way to get one yourself.
Jason would absolutely love any animals you guys take care of though and is always really gentle with the smaller ones
I have a hc that when he was a kid at camp he would hide from the other children in the woods and so he kind of grew fond of a lot of the animals there
He would leave all naming up to you though, since  the name doesn’t really matter to him
Michael Myers
Dogs are off limits. They don’t really like him.
I mean, it’s not like cats are crazy about him either, especially your cat, but he’s able to tolerate cats. 
Him and your cat would have a silent grudge and a silent agreement. They don’t like each other, but if the cat doesn’t cough up hairballs in his shoes, he won’t lock them out.
It’s sort of sad to you because of course you want your two favorite people to love each other too! So you try to encourage your cat to hop up on the couch while you and Michael are cuddling or vice verse.
It doesn’t really work since every vibe check that cat does on Michael returns negative.
However, after a while of living together, they sort of are accustomed to each other. They aren’t besties by any means, but it’ll be a bit more common to see Michael absentmindedly scratching the cat behind their ears, or the cat weaving between Michael’s legs whenever he sits down.
Michael personally had a few choice names for the cat, but you both settled for Prickles
Pinhead
I know the Chatterer Beast from the fourth movie isn’t the fluffiest puppy but it’s basically like the best guard dog ever. Plus he came with Pinhead so it makes sense you would keep him.
Plus, it’s not like you can really get any other pets while Pinhead has Toothy (your affectionate nickname for the pup), since Toothy doesn’t really get along well with other animals
You don’t mind though, he’s enough of a handful all on his own! Your main issue is house training him…
It should be easy since he strictly follows Pinhead’s orders, but Pinhead’s standing by with a distant look on his face while Toothy tears up your carpet
Speaking of Pinhead, he’s surprisingly sweet with his pup. While he simply regards the doggy as an assistant while working, behind closed doors he pets Toothy a lot more and even teaches him a couple tricks (not that he needs to, but it’s pretty cute to see)
While Pinhead acts annoyed/indifferent towards the nickname Toothy, you’ve definitely heard him use it for the Chatterer Beast(even if he denies it)
Bubba Sawyer
A PIG
Bubba’s family owns a farmhouse with some animals for when they can’t get their hands on their preferred meat. It just so happens that one of these animals is a pig!
One day while cleaning out the stables though, Bubba notices that one of these pigs seems a bit lighter and weaker than the others. She was the runt of the litter and because of that, she wasn’t able to get as much food from her mom.
Something about that struck a chord with Bubba and that’s how you woke up that morning with a small pink snout in your face
You’re obviously overjoyed and the two of you are determined to bring the little piglet back to health, bestowing her with the name Cupcake
Cupcake basically becomes your surrogate child and it becomes a common occurrence to see Bubba cooking or cleaning with one hand and holding her up on his hip with the other
You also take the time to knit her little blankets and clothes with Bubba for colder nights 
Vincent Sinclair
Vincent is sort of picky about getting a pet
He doesn’t want anything destructive or high maintenance because he doesn’t want them to interrupt his work,  but when he hears a ruckus outside, and his eyes meet the injured raccoon’s, his work is far from the first thing on his mind.
Is the raccoon destructive? Yes. Mischievous? Yes. High maintenance? Absolutely. But it’s your guys’ responsibility now and there’s nothing that can convince him otherwise.
You don’t mind, it’s funny seeing him pick the fuzzy menace up by the armpits and toss him out of the studio.
The raccoon comes and goes as he pleases, often disappearing for an hour or two, but he always comes back to you
After catching him stealing Vincent’s lunch for the 10th time, you decide Lupin is an appropriate name for the little thief.
As annoyed as Vincent gets with Lupin though, he can’t stay mad at the little man forever and 5 minutes later Lupin’s perched on Vincent’s shoulder and watching him work intently.
The two of them have a silent bond and are inseparable in a matter of days.
(Reposting bc I accidentally posted this on my main blog instead of my writing blog)

@elainweekofficial Day 3: A snippet of the shenanigans that ensue when Elain and the Band of Exiles dog-sit Eris's smokehounds 🐶
“What in Cauldron’s name is happening?” Lucien’s hands were planted squarely on his hips as Eris Vanserra wedged past him. The High Lord of Autumn had shown up to the Band of Exiles’ manor with his entire pack of smokehounds bright and early.
“Oh!” Elain popped her head around the corner. “Good morning, Eris! Hello Isabella! Quenby! Yana and Collin!” She rubbed the passing hounds affectionately on their heads. With the dogs’ soulful brown eyes, soft and short hairs, lolling tongues, and wagging tails, who wouldn’t fall in love with them?
Eris tipped his head in acknowledgement. “Good morning, Elain.” 
“Smokehounds,” Vassa breathed in amazement, joining the throng at the door. The human queen’s sapphire eyes sparkled at the magical dogs jostling their way down the hall.
“I volunteered to watch Eris’s dogs while he went on his honeymoon,” Elain explained, turning her doe brown eyes towards Lucien. 
Lucien’s frown softened at Elain’s hopeful expression. They had only started courting very recently, taking things slowly the old-fashioned—human—way. It seemed Elain had taken the initiative to win his brother’s favor by not only memorizing all of Eris’s dogs, but by also offering to care for them.
“But agreeing to watch your dogs for the week is not the same as letting all of them move in,” Lucien protested. For Eris was unloading box after box of belongings into the living room. Beds, toys, food, treats, leashes, blankets…even little jackets. All twelve members of the pack, colored in varying shades of sleek gray, were sniffing furniture with their long, elegant noses.
“My dogs are very high maintenance,” Eris said defensively. “Besides, they like you the most out of all our brothers. You should take that as a compliment.” Eris smacked a thick packet into Lucien’s chest. Lucien flipped through the pamphlet, eyes growing wider and wider. 
“Give Collin a hot soak every night. Bridgett must be fed promptly at 6 in the evening. Silas only plays with the green wool ball. What is this?” Lucien read incredulously. 
“Those are the care instructions.” Eris rolled his eyes, implying obviously at the end of his response.
“You have twenty pages of—” 
“I don’t want to hear it, Lucien,” Vassa interrupted, giving Lucien a queenly stare with her blazing blue eyes. “I approved of having the dogs come over as well. I hope you enjoy your honeymoon, Lord Eris.” She bowed her head at the Autumn High Lord.
“Dogs!” Jurian’s voice echoed from the hall. “They’re here!” 
“Oh gods, here he comes,” Lucien groaned. The Mad General barreled into the room, his shoulder-length brown hair frazzled, shirt half-buttoned.
“I love dogs,” Jurian said enthusiastically as the hounds jumped up and down excitedly at the prospect of a new friend. “I used to be a dog whisperer back in the day.” 
“I’m sure you were,” Vassa muttered under her breath. 
“Saoirse, down,” Eris commanded as one of the females practically bowled Jurian over. “You know better than to jump on strangers.” 
“I’m sure they won’t remain strangers for long,” Elain giggled as Saoirse licked Jurian’s face eagerly. Vassa and Jurian’s faces bore huge smiles as they gave each hound plenty of attention.
After several minutes, Lucien looked at Eris expectantly. “Well, what are you waiting for? Don’t you have a honeymoon to pack for?” 
“I don’t want to leave them,” Eris said gruffly, turning away. 
“Please don’t tell me you’re crying.” Lucien sighed, rolling his eyes.  
“You wouldn’t understand, baby brother,” Eris snapped, wiping his eyes. “When you have children one day, you will feel the same way.” Elain blushed at the implication of Lucien with children. 
“They’ll be fine, Eris. I’m sure they’ll forget all about you soon enough.” 
“Lucien, don’t be cruel.” Elain swatted Lucien’s arm. “Your dogs will be in good hands, don’t you worry, Eris. Time will fly by sooner than you think.”  
Eris sniffled, glaring at his brother. “Thank you, Elain. At least someone here has some compassion.” 
***
Lunchtime feeding had been utter chaos. 
“Sit! Sit!” Jurian had instructed repeatedly. “You’re not getting food until you sit!” The hounds only wagged their tails at him, not a single coherent thought behind their eyes. 
Of course, they only listened to Lucien, whose flaming red hair and cadence of voice was most similar to their master’s. The fae male managed to get the hounds—Arienne, Bridgette, Collin, Erick, Isabella, Lea, Mateo, Phillipe, Quenby, Silas, Victoria, and Yana—chowing down grains, vegetables, and premium cuts of meat in somewhat orderly fashion.  
Now that it was afternoon, Elain and Vassa lounged on the lawn, watching Jurian and Lucien play with the dogs. An hour of strenuous exercise per day, Eris had instructed. Jurian and Lucien were both hardy warriors, but the dogs’ boundless energy seemed to be running them ragged. 
Several smokehounds—Phillipe, Isabella, and Arienne—ambled around, taking their garden sniffs very seriously. Elain kept a careful eye on them, making sure they did not ingest any of her carefully cultivated plants. 
Lea and Erick sat beside her on the soft blanket, their sweet eyes gazing as she munched on cookies and miniature cakes. “Sorry, darlings,” Elain apologized, “no snacks for you.” 
“Give the dog a little treat,” Vassa grumbled, her nose buried in a book. “They deserve the world.” 
Elain frowned. “Eris would not forgive me if he came back and found them several pounds heavier.” 
Vassa rolled her eyes with the confidence of a self-assured queen. “Trust me, you should be more concerned about getting Daphne and Helion’s approval. Lucien’s parents, remember?” 
Elain gave her friend a pointed glare as she threaded daisies into a chain. “Trust you? You’ve never had to meet Jurian’s parents.”  
“Fine, you have a point there. But why wouldn’t Lucien prioritize what his mother and his newly-found father, the High Lord of Day, think?” 
Elain dropped the daisy crown onto Lea’s head. The hound tucked its snout between its paws contentedly. She chewed her lip worriedly. “Do you think he—” 
Vassa waved her hand. “Oh, goodness, no. That male? He’s clearly in love with you. And you clearly possess strong feelings for him. Why you want to take things at a snail’s pace—”
“Snail’s pace!” Elain sputtered.
“Yes, Elain Archeron,” she intoned slowly. “The main characters in this novel have only known each other for six days, and they’re fucking already. You and Lucien have known each other for three years…have you even kissed?”
“Of-of course we have! I am not a prude!” 
Vassa tapped the cover of the book she was reading. Selkie’s Cove by Sellyn Drake. “This is a great story, by the way. Here, you should read it. For some inspiration.” The human queen winked, making Elain blush at its implication. 
Elain cocked her head. “Do you hear that?” 
“Hear what?” The sound of distant yelling grew closer and closer. It was Jurian. 
“Aaaahhhh!! Help meee!!” The human general came sprinting out of the woods, three smokehounds hot on his heels. Jurian zig-zagged around tree stumps and hopped over muddy patches, commanding the dogs to stop chasing him. Unfortunately, that only seemed to excite them more.
“Some dog whisperer you are,” Elain called out to Jurian. 
“Stop running!” Vassa shouted. “Use your assertive general voice, Jurian!” 
“Afternoon, ladies.” Lucien jogged over, grinning mischievously. 
“Something tells me you know why the smokehounds won’t leave Jurian alone,” Elain’s brown eyes narrowed in suspicion. 
“I may have slipped a piece of beef jerky into his pocket,” Lucien laughed softly. “He’s been lagging during our sparring sessions, so I figured he needed to work on his stamina.” 
“Stamina?” Elain nudged Vassa with a sneaky grin. 
***
Preparing dinner for twelve hungry hounds had been no easy feat. Thankfully, Jurian and Lucien’s expert knife skills had the vegetables and meat chopped up within half an hour. Promptly at 6 in the evening, per Eris’s demands.  
Vassa brushed Arienne and Quenby’s shiny coats with a soft bristle brush, while Elain read Selkie’s Cove by the crackling fireplace. Silas had his head on her lap, while Phillipe dozed off next to her. Lucien and Jurian were somewhere in the kitchen, opening up bottles of wine. A cozy night seemed to be in store.
“Hey, you! Mateo! Or is it Erick?” Jurian rushed into the room, for a smokehound was standing on the pink couch. 
“It’s Erick,” Elain remarked distractedly, engrossed with the utterly sinful smut. “Can’t you tell?”
“Well Erick is peeing on the couch!” Jurian wailed. “Shoo! Shoo!” The smokehound jumped off the hot pink cushion without a care in the world. Jurian dabbed at the dark stain with a cloth towel. 
“Good riddance,” Elain said offhandedly, returning to the book. “It was about time that pink monstrosity was disposed of.”
“What is happening?” Lucien sighed for the umpteenth time that day. 
“My couch! Noo!!” Jurian howled. The smokehounds around him howled in unison, bringing out a fresh round of giggles from Vassa and Elain.
Lucien ran his hands through his long hair, groaning, “I’ll bill Eris for another couch, Jurian.” 
Elain glanced up at Lucien, eyes glimmering with delight. “As long as it’s not pink, right?” she said innocently. “It was a shit interior design choice.”

daemyra | fav kids & fav parents
controversial take but I see ppl catfighting about this a lot so I thought to throw my own coin here with my headcanons/interpretation:
I think Daemon's favorite child is 100% Aegon III. The man wanted a son for so very long. it makes sense that the favoritism would go there. Aegon is everything he had wanted. He lost the potential son Mysaria could give him, lost another son along with his second wife Laena, and finally got his wish with his final wife, Rhaenyra. I know there's the argument that "baela is his mini me so she'd be the apple of his eye" but eh, i never viewed baela as a female version of daemon. She's wild and passionate and has a fire similar to her parents but that's it and it's okay. A child being a favourite doesn't mean he doesn't love the rest
Rhaenyra's favorite child is Jacaerys. He's the firstborn son, her heir, her pride and joy. I know there's the alternative belief that Aegon III could also be suited for the role of the favorite, but I think he and rhaneyra are simply more emotional attached.
I think Laena would probably lean more towards Baela 'cause hot take but baela is more similar to Laena (in my mind at least). Obviously she loves Rhaena too but Baela is definitely her favorite.
Now, onto the children:
Jacaerys/Lucerys/Joffreys favorite parent is Daemon. He's the one they identity and remember as a father and he's someone they look up to. Of course they adore their mother but Daemon is the fun parent and they can get away with anything as long as they have him by their side.
Aegon's iii favorite parent is Rhaenyra. He can be needy sometimes and his mother is all the more willing to be affectionate with her son. She loves that she finally has a boy who isn't in too much rush to grow up fast.
Viserys's II favorite parent is also Rhaenyra. Vivi prefers the quiet company of hid older brother Aegon above all but he's not fond of the training his other elder siblings and Daemon are obsessed with. He loves sitting with Aegon as his mother tells them one of the stories of old valyria.
Baela's favorite is Daemon. While she admires her mother, her father's Rogue prince personality is more appealing, and while her mother doesn't preasure her about being a "proper lady" according to westerosi standards her father still let's her get away with more things
Rhaenas' favorite parent is Laena. She admires her mother's spirit and hopes to become like her one day. When her mother passes away Rhaena latches onto Rhaenyra who makes it clear to her and her twin that she'll never try to replace their mother's memory. Her beauty and playful side definitely help Rhaena grow out of her shy self.
Also, had Visenya survived she definitely would have joined Aegon and Viserys to team Rhaenyra. She's mama's girl

hooooly shit this got WAY LONGER than i expected. but let me just say i think its interesting how shiv said that logan might’ve lived to “rock his grandkids to sleep” as if logan doesn’t already have grandkids.
obviously shiv was focused on herself and her own baby, but the phrasing of it struck me a certain way in such a big moment of vulnerability. because sarah snook said on a podcast that one of shiv’s flaws is that she has too much hope, and we can see this in shiv’s fantasy of her father– her father, logan roy– being a loving, affectionate grandfather to her children when he barely has a relationship with sophie and iverson (and literally hit iverson in season 1).
there are a million and one things to say about children in this show, obviously, which i can’t hope to even cover a fraction of. i guess for this i’ll emphasize the concept of children as an extension of their parents. this idea is central to the series, and foundational to all of the roys’ perceptions of a “family” as a whole. logan’s reason to have children was always, deep down, transactional; it was always to forward the company, to have someone he could trust at the helm of the ship when he goes. of course, for someone as brutally egotistical as him who’d prefer to rule himself for all eternity if he could, that ideally meant someone just like him. this isn’t anything new whatsoever; in fact this is literally what’s revealed the very first episode when logan tears kendall down from his pedestal because he’s not a “killer” like him. all he ever wanted was for one of his kids to be a true extension of him; a “killer.” however i do think it’s really important to keep logan’s view of children in the back of your mind, because it’s obviously the foundation for shiv’s view of her own child.
that being said, considering how all of shiv’s words were tainted with grief, shiv wasn’t thinking nor speaking about the transactional value of her child. the future of her child perhaps running the company after her simply wasn’t in her mind so soon after such an immense loss. instead, with concern to this idea of children as extensions of their parent, shiv’s fantasy of loving grandfather logan roy was naught but a hopeful fantasy of him providing HER love, but that desire was projected onto her child not just because logan is now dead, but also because shiv is an adult who “grew out” of receiving that kind of love years ago.
as the youngest child shiv has witnessed both rewards for logan-like behavior and punishment for deviant behavior, and internalizing it has made her insanely emotionally distant and detached. her aversion to vulnerability is overcompensation as a result of that upbringing (as well as typical misogyny). her ruthlessness and insensitivity in conversation is a way that she’s like logan; she has the “killer” drive that none of her siblings do– or, regardless of whether she actually does, she thinks she does. shiv gets a kick out of poking the blackest part of the bruise, so to speak (think her repeated mention of how roman can’t fuck), because it’s her way of affirming herself that she’s like her father, and therefore has value as a person, businesswoman, and daughter.
take into account this conviction of superiority above her brothers for being more like her father (and it should be, because it’s fundamental to her character and informs many of her decisions), and combine it with the aforementioned ideas toward the beginning of this rant, one could infer an unspoken– and frankly unnoticed–subconscious idea of hers: that shiv’s child, an extension of her, the best and most valuable of the siblings, would be treated well by logan. better than his other grandchildren, probably, because those were kendall’s children, and kendall’s not like logan (so why would logan bother?). like i said, though, this idea is a projection of the love shiv desires and believes she’s “earned.” it’s a real fucked up amalgamation of self-importance and deep-seated perceptions of competition amongst her brothers, but tainted with desire for affection she never got, and tainted with the false idea that this affection was taken from her by the external force of death, rather than by logan himself. ough

Reflecting lately on the degree to which Cersei's brothers treated her as complicit in her abusive marriage, the specific ways in which she was expected to manage their emotions. Robert was obviously not her choice of husband (that brute you made me marry), she was the foremost recipient of Robert's violence & callousness. Yet we see early in their marriage, when Cersei sends Jaime to confirm Robert's infidelity, that Jaime returns and asks if Cersei wants him dead. As if Cersei... has a choice. To condemn Robert to death at the cost of Jaime's life no doubt.
That's not isolated: Cersei later hides bruises from Jaime because his first instinct would have been violence towards Robert, putting her in further danger from her abusive husband should Jaime do anything short of murdering him and whisking her/the children far away.
Jaime goes on to be upset during the royal trip to Winterfell, upset because Robert might force himself on Cersei any given night, and it's left to Cersei to manage that hurt by urging him to go hunting. Jaime throws Bran out a window for witnessing their ill-advised liaison and the next morning Tyrion finds him "with a lazy smile" while Cersei freaks. Jaime's coping mechanisms of repression are well-documented at this point yet from Cersei's POV her husband is in the room with the kid who could bust the whole case wide open should he wake, and she's alone in displaying concern.
Even later, when Jaime expresses that it should have been him who killed Robert instead of Cersei, that implies that either he considers his hate of Robert more righteous than hers or that he values his protective instinct towards the woman he loves over hers towards herself. Regardless of which, it diminishes who Robert's victim was - Cersei. When Jaime expresses blame towards Cersei for their children not knowing him as their father ("Tommen is no son of mine, no more than Joffrey was." His voice was hard. "You made them Robert's too."), when he compares her to Robert while she acts out her trauma despite having gone through a similar experience himself (someplace along the way he had become the Smiling Knight) therefore being in a position to offer empathy.
And these were all highly gendered expectations! Jaime rarely seems to consider Cersei's lack of mobility or ability to defend herself, centering himself in this dynamic as the savior, her as the perfect victim (a role she fails). Cersei for her part views Jaime in a similar manner, rarely considering his desires or internal struggles above her own conception of him, yet she is aware of the gendered ways in which they're separated.
Cersei's treatment of Tyrion was mocking & abusive so the schadenfreude he feels towards her isn't shocking (Tyrion had rather liked Robert Baratheon, great blustering oaf that he was... doubtless in part because his sister loathed him so). That said for Cersei, who perceived Tyrion as the actor who would one day feed on her joy, Tyrion's muted approval of her misery likely fed into her fear & hatred of him. For him to take little issue with the relationship despite being at some level aware of the violence within it was all that she would have registered. That Tyrion was otherwise affectionate towards her children in ways Jaime wasn't, that he largely left her alone, was likely lost on her in exchange for becoming even more hostile towards him.

10, 17, and 18 for the fic asks!! Maybe for the pirate au? 👀
HI CHLOEEE!! Ooooh, the Pirate POTO Fic?? why of course!!
10. If unpublished, can you show a sneak peek of what you've written?
Why, of course!! Although I will say I've already forgotten what scenes I've posted so if I already shared this im so sorry, and i'll gladly share another scene instead if I have! Anyway, HAVE A FLUFF SCENE AND A DRAMATIC SCENE!!
On the fourteenth day of their cruise—about two weeks after their wedding—Raoul was standing at the bow of the ship and inhaling the air with his eyes closed. He had taken to doing this every morning, when the air was still chilly. And as Raoul let the ocean air envelope him and fill his lungs, he felt a pair of arms wrap themselves from behind him, around his waist.  Raoul opened his eyes and beamed as he tried to twist around, but Christine held on tightly. Raoul laughed, trying to dislodge her enough so he could greet his wife goodmorning, but she kept turning away from him so he could only see her hair. Then Raoul twisted suddenly, loosening her grip just enough so he could spin around and grab her under the waist, lifting her off the deck and spinning while she laughed. He put her down, his hands remaining around her waist, and her arms now resting on his shoulders. “Good morning, my love,” Raoul said affectionately, pressing a gentle kiss against her forehead and the loose curls that covered it. “How was your rest?” “Far from enough,” Christine chuckled, and Raoul smiled, pressing his mouth against her hair in an attempt to stifle a yawn. “Perhaps tomorrow we should sleep in different beds—that might be the only way we get any rest at this rate.” Raoul gasped dramatically. “Already sleeping in different beds, on our honeymoon?” Christine laughed, and Raoul smiled and wrapped her in his arms, swaying slightly with the ship. “Of course, if you so wish, perhaps just one night—but I would rather miss sleep for a hundred days instead of sleeping apart from you again.” Christine smiled at him, and instead of responding, kissed him on the lips. Raoul shut his eyes as she did, and they stood there for a few moments until the ship made Christine stumble out of his grasp. Raoul, who was rather good at keeping himself balanced on ships by now, managed to catch her just before she fell, and they both laughed as he righted her.  “I feel the same,” she finally said, prompting a dorky smile from her husband. Raoul grabbed her round the waist and kissed her again.
That's the fluff scene, obviously tee hee hee. And here's the dramatic scene!!
Then the screaming began. Without thinking, Raoul grabbed Christine by the shoulders, turning her around to face him. She was pale as a sheet. “Christine!” Raoul bellowed, all but shaking her to snap out of it. “Get under the ship! Hide however you can! Go!” Christine’s unfocused eyes looked directly into his, and he felt a piercing pain shoot through his heart. She grabbed his shirt, shaking her head furiously.   “I can’t leave you!” She cried, and Raoul gripped her arms with a fierce intensity.  “There is no time! Go, now! I’ll find you once it’s safe!” And without another word he let her go, sprinting off towards the bow of the ship, ushering as many women as he could to safety.  He glanced back to make sure Christine had gone and was both relieved and afraid when she was no longer there.  Gritting his teeth, Raoul joined the men, who were distributing firearms amongst themselves. Raoul grabbed a gun and made sure it was loaded, letting out a tense exhale.  He had read stories of pirates. Often, in fact, with Christine, when they were only children. He remembered that he was fascinated with them—the fearful, gruesome stories, the high-sea adventures, brutal punishments, and treasure. To a young boy, it had sounded exactly like everything one could ever want. Likely a large influence on why he joined the Navy to begin with. Meanwhile Christine was both fascinated and terrified of the idea of them. He remembered now, how he had claimed that he could fight any pirate off for her, and how Christine had laughed. How he had flushed, and how she had immediately reassured him that she believed him, and how she had kissed his cheek to emphasize her point. He wasn’t sure if it was true. But for Christine, it had to be.
17. When publishing it, will you have a posting schedule or will you just update whenever?
It probably won't be very consistent I'm so sorry 😭 because im thinking I'll probably write a couple chapters then when i start posting, edit just before that (because i DESPISE EDITING). and im not sure if ill be able to be consistent, but ill definitely try to be!! 😭
18. How many chapters do you plan to write ahead before publishing?
Maybe five?? it depends on how far into the story it gets, but that sounds like a decent amount of chapters in advance to me!
Feel free to send me more Unwritten/Unpublished fics asks here!!!!

I've lost count of the number of older works of fiction that some people refuse to take at face value. So many literary critics, when faced with an aspect of a classic book or play that they don't like, will claim that it's really a deconstruction or a satire, or that the author didn't really want to write it that way, but reluctantly gave in to the mores of their time period. Whether it's because the work is out of step with modern values, or because the tone is inconsistent, or because certain storylines play out differently than the critic wanted them to, or, very commonly, because the work is too romantic, too optimistic, etc., and not edgy and cynical enough, the critics cry "insincere author."
We see this when people claim that Romeo and Juliet is really a satire or a deconstruction of a love story. Or when they claim that the ending of Wuthering Heights inconsistent with the rest of the book, and probably wasn't the original ending Emily Brontë wrote, or that Jane Eyre's happy ending is supposed to ring false and hollow. Or that the ending of Little Women is another false happy ending that's actually supposed to be disappointing. Or many other examples.
Now I've seen this thinking applied to Alice in Wonderland too. Namely to the sentimental poems and gentle real-world scenes that frame both of the two books: the poem "All in the golden afternoon" that opens Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the reverie of Alice's sister that ends the book, and Through the Looking-Glass's framing poems "Child of the pure unclouded brow" and "A boat beneath a sunny sky" and its opening and closing scenes of Alice playing with her kitten.
I've now seen two people (composer Unsuk Chin in her notes on her opera adaptation, and an essay writer whose name I've forgotten) argue that these poems and scenes are tonally inconsistent with the rest of the text, and that they're much more conventionally Victorian in their sentimentality and idyllic portrait of childhood than Alice's dream adventures are in all their surrealism, humor, dark edges and cultural satire. Unsuk Chin wrote that Carroll was probably forced to give the books a conventional, sentimental framing, or else they would have been too radical for the era, and she suggested that he probably would have written very different opening and closing scenes if he had his own way. I also found an essay targeting the opening and closing poems, which suggested that they should be read as satirical, because their sentimental tone and their framing of the stories as simple, wondrous fairy tales for innocent children is so out-of-step with the books' actual tone.
That's an interesting idea that I had never considered before. I always have noticed that difference in tone between Alice's adventures and the framing poems and scenes. But I've still always assumed that the framing sentimentality was sincere on Carroll's part, and that this was part of the books' complexity. The idea that it might really be satire never crossed my mind until now.
But to be honest, I still lean toward thinking they're sincere. In the first place, Carroll's satirical poems within Alice's dreams (e.g. "How doth the little crocodile" and "You are old, Father William") are obviously satire. Gleeful, wicked satire of the popular moralizing poems of the day. Not poems so subtly satirical that most people would think they were straight examples of the sentimental Victorian verses they parody. Secondly, in 1887, Carroll wrote an article called "Alice on the Stage," in which he gave detailed descriptions of each of the book's characters and what he thought of their portrayals in a recent stage adaptation. His description of Alice herself is very similar in tone to the framing poems and the affectionate reverie of the older sister at the end of the first book. He waxes very sentimentally about her loving, gentle, courteous nature, and of the innocence, joy, and wonderment of childhood that she embodies. Again, there's a bit of a disconnect between the angel-child he describes and the character he actually wrote – is this girl, "loving as a dog and gentle as a fawn," the same one who kicked Bill the Lizard out of the chimney and who remarked "I don't think it's a pity at all" when told that the Duchess was sentenced to death? But unless he meant this article as satire too, I can't imagine after reading it that the books' openings and endings are insincere in their tenderness.
Besides, as I pointed out, commentators are always trying to explain away aspects of classic literature that they don't like by saying "It was meant as satire" or "The author was forced to write this by the mores of the time period."
Still, the idea that the sentimental poems and framing scenes might have been meant as satire, or that they might have been concessions to Victorian taste so the books wouldn't seem too radical, is worthwhile to consider. They are very different in tone from the surreal and satirical stories they frame, after all. I might personally view that difference as just a part of the books' complexity (and as reflecting the complex, enigmatic character of the man who wrote them), but it's worth exploring from every possible angle.
