(y/n) turns off his phone as covers his face with his hand in frustration and embarrassment, the color of pink roses dusted on his cheeks and up to his ear. His hair messy against his pillow. “What the actual fuck? Why did Ajax even mention that arrogant bastard and why does everyone keep on shipping me with him?!" He angrily mutters to himself before sighing, sure he finds Scaramouche to be extremely pretty especially with his indigo hair styled into a jelly fish cut, bluish violet eyes so sharp and held a look of intellect or his sharp jawline yet his cheeks still looks slightly squishy and kinda cute but that doesn't mean he likes the guy romantically, he just finds him like a sort of challenge and gives a slight thrill to his boring life but when his friends knew about how he actually sees Scaramouche they immediately began to tease him.
Can't I just admire the guy in peace? Sure he looks pretty but his personality is just arrogant. Is he in denial? Of course not.
“I really hope I don't get paired with him with future projects, I'm gonna kill myself if it does happen. Just kidding but I still don't want to be paired up by him." He says as he let out a deep breath of sigh.
“I am really not looking forward to returning to school.” He mutters to himself before pressing a pillow over his face and went to sleep.

I decided to reread the MHA LN Chapter 4, you know, the canon bkdk angsty slow-burn fanfic 😌😌 Spreading the BKDK LN agenda because WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS MORE !!
Anyway, I FOUND ANOTHER TRANSLATION but sadly OP haven't finished it yet 😢
And since I need an emotional outlet so I can scream at how they're so canon, Im'ma do it here ahwjdhfjsh 👀✨
Warning: Long post; potential manga spoilers
Tumblr media
– I forgot that this chapter literally started with the angst 😭 Deku saying that he can't imagine having lunch with Kacchan is like a pain in the gut. He just wanna be friends with his Kacchan again 😢
Tumblr media
– One word, ✨SOULMATES ✨ afshshahah PLS, even the universe can't help but ship them together 😩✋ they're fruityness is on whole a new level I CAN'T 💚🧡
Tumblr media
– I see what you're doing Bakugou 👀 You really can't leave your sweet broccoli behind huh?? Also, crybaby Macchan and aggressive Takkun?? 🤔 Do I need to say more? 🧐
Tumblr media
– If that's not flirting then idk what is 🤷 also, "In front of my soba? Really?" (Todoroki, probably)
– There's no ss but I just wanna give a special mention to jealous!Bakugou. No cos srsly, implying you're not friends with Deku as if you're not dying to hold his hand then getting irritated over Todoroki claiming the "friend" card 😩 Just, Bakugou, don't @ me ☺️💢
Tumblr media
– The angst had reached full force it seems ಥ‿ಥ The line was cut but it actually says "Not friends, just childhood friends" 😭😭 and I am telling you Im'ma throw my brand new book when Bakugou explicitly acknowledges Midoriya as his boyfriend. Because before they were rivals, Bakugou and Midoriya were first friends. And I'm not saying that they aren't one now because we as readers, can definitely see they care for each other. But the question is, do they already see the other as a friend and not just a mere rival? They don't cos they're boyfriends your honor
Tumblr media
– Tbh, It still haven't sinked in that this is kind of canon 🤧 This is such a cliched romantic scene like wtf?? So what's next? The full moon is illuminating half of Bakugou's face, red eyes glowing and face soft from the natural white luminescence or something sappy like that?? 😩😩 I love it
Tumblr media
– Izuku in this LN chapter whenever he talks about Bkg: ✨ THEIR RELATIONSHIP ✨
– I know, I get it. You don't have to shove it my face every single time Deku 😌 and pls, why are you still flirting at the middle of the night?? Or was it pining that I see 🤔 i mean comparing each other to their kid parallels 😕 hmm a severe case of mutual pining indeed
Tumblr media
– Yes yes, of course you're only looking for food stalls Mr. Bakugou "Tsundere" Katsuki, I completely don't believe that you're worried about the kids. No! of course not! Who says you want the kids to reconcile so they wouldn't experience the pain that you and a certain green had gone through?? Hahaha I mean It's not like they're your parallel what??hmmm no no, go on, look for takoyaki or smthn ☺️☺️
– Wait, did the last part say '"Bakugou grabbed Izuku's face and pushed it away..." Aksfksjdhdisjs what in the actual gay fanfic is this??!! Or wait, is this what Bkg usually do to Deku in the official art he's like, I love agressively gripping your head as I entangle my fingers on your soft curls but no homo💀
Since OP's translation isn't complete, I'm going to use Lau Ren's translation and yes I'm continuing this shit even though Tumblr mobile only lets me post 10 pics per post
Tumblr media
– Bkdk domesticity with children pt. 95736 💚🧡 They love kids so much 😩 Yk I'd donate my kidney just to see this ANIMATED ✨ like this has so much fluff potential 🤧 Or at the very least a drama CD. I'd ascend 😭
Tumblr media
– WHAT THE FUDGE ?!! I'M SCREAMING 😭 I SAY IT AGAIN 💞 SOULMATES✨ and pls, it has my favorite fic trope, Bakugou Katsuki is Bad at Feelings. Anyway, I need a minute to collect myself cos I can't move past the "With the said person himself nearby, Kacchan thought his fate had gone crazy" ( ≧Д≦) dammit Katsuki, why r u so gay. Izuku loves you, you emotionally constipated gremlin
I have reached my 10 picture limit so I'm just gonna copy paste some of the twts 💀 I hope I don't get in trouble lmao Xd
- Kacchan fixed his gaze to Deku who looked relieved. "He..."
- Somehow, Kacchan remembered the fight they had after All Might's retirement. It was the first time they were able to let out their conflicts sincerely. Although his fear towards Deku had decreased since then, there was still a feeling of disgust about Deku being a hero who save others residing in Kacchan.
- He couldn't understand it. But he knew, there will always a being whom he cannot understand
– Bkg rlly said 👀 on Deku while having angsty thoughts ಥ╭╮ಥ Looking back on this tho, I just can't help but be proud when I remember 285. Bakugou is loud but he is very rational in battles. He thinks of a plan on the spot meaning he's mind is on work 24/7.
– When he had his "My body just moved on its own" moment, Katsuki had understood Deku and his nature to "Save to Win." It'ss that Katsuki must not analyze it with his brain, but instead feel it with his heart 💚🧡 And this is the reason why I badly want to see him on the manga 😭 that was some MAJOR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT I'm ahwjdhfjsh
– Takkun and Maachan's pinky swear deserves their own mention. They're so pure 😩✋
- He said he still hasn't done hatsumoude so Kacchan can go first, but Kacchan refused and wouldn't let Deku do hatsumoude before him.
- Kacchan tried to take a head start, but in the end, they ended up visiting and praying together.
– AND WE'RE BACK with the gays 😌 hsjdjajs they compete with every single thing it's honestly cute. Also YES THEY PRAYED TOGETHER and shoujo scenes with the main couple praying on the shrine but make it BKDK flashed before my eyes 😖✨
- After finishing their prayers, Deku looked at Kacchan, "What did you wish for?" "Shut up."
- Even with Kacchan's sulking expression seen from the side, Deku felt that they had wished for the same thing.
– DEKU YOU'RE BEING TOO LOUD!! I just can't with these two 😩✋ Both of them are down so bad for each other and you can't tell me otherwise 💚✨🧡
- With those serious eyes, Deku knew they were aiming for the same thing. Win to save, save to win. To be the best heroes.
- Deku knew well that he and Kacchan are polar opposites. But even so, Deku couldn't imagine a world in which Kacchan doesn't exist.
– Deku just went 😍 on Kacchan and thought "I CAN'T IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT YOU 🧡💚" (insert Imagine by Ben Platt)
– I can't even stress how much I love this line, y'all this is so misleading I-- this is too much 😭 Anyway, I believe this go both ways. Bakugou can't also see a world without Deku in it, and since Deku decided to be the self-sacrificing person he is, I'll just SCREAM IN CH. 304 ( ≧Д≦)
- Seeing the two praying side by side, he commented, "so you've become good friends now, huh."
- Both of them immediately opposed, and Kacchan threatened to explode Shoto's mouth for saying such a disgusting thing.
– Let's go Todoroki, best wingman 🤣 And flustered Bakugou makes a reappearance hdjsja Dammit half n' half I ain't flirting with Deku fvck you
And this is where it ends afshshaha anyway bkdk canon 💚🧡

I'm rewatching The Mandalorian and it just made me realize how quickly Din builds an incredibly strong attachment to Grogu. Like Grogu's still learning about Din and whether he likes him or not and it's clear Grogu's attachment to Din becomes strong with time and Din's actions. But you can tell that Din almost immediately (and seemingly unconsciously) adopts Grogu as his kid. It's so precious. I love Din. Aaaah and then just like like— ugh my heart.
The way the show portrays, the bounty hunters and the jobs they do, it seems it's normal for those kinda of jobs happen a lot (like dealing with kids). And the lengths Din goes to protect Grogu, even just at the start, are so great. Like it's so much further than even someone who just normally cares about kids would go in that very specific situation. I mean he puts his entire family at risk for Grogu (which seems selfish, and it is, but it also showed how much he trusted them). I mean he put everything he's ever known at risk.
But then I thought about the way the other Mandalorian talks to Din about how he should go about finding Grogu's people. It seems like a normal thing to bring Grogu back and be okay with not seeing him again. Like you know? Like most people who would care about a child because they're a child would just get that child to the people they're supposed to be with and protect them and be on their way. Especially in a universe like that one. And even the end of season 2 gives the never gonna see each other again, except by accident or extreme circumstance.
But no! Din just wants to see Grogu so he goes to where Luke and Grogu are training! Ah! my heart! He just goes to see the kid like it's no big deal! I MEAN JEDI USUALLY DONT SEE THEIR PARENTS AGAIN BECAUSE BLAH BLAH BLAH. ANYWAY ITS "NORMAL" FOR JEDI NOT TO SEE THEIR FAMILIES AGAIN BUT DIN JUST GOES AND SEES HIM LIKE A PARENT GOING TO VISIT THEIR KID AFTER THEYVE MOVED OUT. HE WAS SO CLUELESS ABOUT IT BEING BASICALLY A RELIGIOUS PRACTICE FOR JEDI NOT TO SEE THEIR PARENTS AGAIN. LIKE DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT IM SAYING??!?!??!?! ITS SO GOOD! I love Din so much! He loves Grogu so much! There's so much love in that man's heart despite being who he is and what he's been through.
Like who f*cking cares about ships, and I really wish those eps with him as the focus were in his own show and not Boba's but I personally loved how they wrote Din & Grogu there. And yes, maybe they're just being wishy washy in their writing but I think it was good for Din as a character and when you start thinking about how Grogu isn't gonna be killed (or turned I guess) when Kylo Ren turns, it was a good creative choice (even if you can tell they really didnt have the Grogu trains to be a Jedi with Luke part planned out into theyre overall story). I think it'll be interesting to see if they come back to Luke or we see Luke again or what's going to go on there. I have the suspicious feeling tho that Grogu's going to want to spend as much time as he can with Din tho, considering Grogu's long life span.
Hopefully this made sense, I really didn't feel like rehashing a bunch of stuff, I'm hoping you can think about the scenes I'm talking about and understand what I'm saying.

Heard you’re looking for more writing requests. And that means that I can share more ideas. So... hai! o/
Hermitcraft Among Us, based on the Grian video where he kept getting impostor, and getting voted out immediately, then Scar won without him.
Everyone knows Scar is a wild card impostor, you know you’d only get one or two kills out of him before he was caught. Grian groans, knowing they were probably going to lose the game. But as he watches Scar taking revenge for his fallen comrade, he realizes he was very, very wrong.
*vibrates intensely* GRIAN AND SCAR IMPOSTER DUO!!
Seriously though thank you. I really like this one and I hope you do too!
Summary: Grian and Scar are the imposters. After a stupid mistake early on, Grian is ejected. He is resigned to their loss, knowing the chances of Scar being able to get to the end of the game without him are next to none. But he soon realises that Scar can be very, VERY dangerous when he wants to be.
  The first kill was supposed to be easy. And for a single precious minute, it was perfect. Grian walked into navigation and killed Beans with no problems whatsoever, before jumping into the vent. 
  However, it seemed he had chosen the wrong time and place to pop out; when he did, he found himself face to face with Bdubs, Skizzleman and Etho, who had just exited cafeteria and come into weapons. 
  For a second, the two parties just stared at each other.
  Then Skizzleman let out a screech and he and Bdubs dashed back into cafeteria, leaving Etho in the room with Grian to watch him.
  Grian didn’t bother to follow them. There was no point and he knew it.
  Sure enough, at the inevitable emergency meeting, Bdubs and Skizzleman immediately started talking excitedly at the same time about what they had seen. 
  “Whoa, whoa, guys!” interrupted Tango. “Calm down and breathe! What happened?”
  “Grian vented,” Skizzleman panted, clearly out of breath. “We saw him. Three of us saw him.”
  “Bdubs, Skizz, and I just came out of cafeteria into weapons and saw him pop his head out of the vent,” Etho explained more coherently. “He must’ve killed Ren or Beans somewhere and vented, looking for another victim, but we caught him.” 
  All eyes turned to Grian. 
  Grian sighed, knowing that they were all expecting him to deny it. But with THREE eye-witnesses, it would be foolish to make up a story. The only way to protect his partner now was to confess. “It’s true. I killed Beans in navigation and vented out. Poor timing on my part.” 
  “No kidding!” Bdubs snorted. “That was pathetic, Grian. You got caught red-handed!”
  “I know,” Grian growled. 
  “What, you’re not even gonna try to deny it?” Tango asked incredulously.
  “Look, if it was only two of them who saw me, I would’ve at least tried to claim they’re both the imposters and trying to frame me, but THREE witnesses? There’s no way I would’ve gotten away with that.” 
  Grian despondently voted for himself and didn’t put up a fight as he was taken to the airlock after the unanimous vote. 
  Waking up back on the ship as a ghost, he sighed heavily and watched Scar run around the ship. 
  That’s it, he thought. We’re gonna lose. There’s no way Scar can kill FIVE people all by himself without getting caught.
  He set off the reactor from the afterlife and watched everyone converge to fix it. After it had been repaired and everyone else had left, Scar hung behind in reactor and killed Tango as the latter was attempting Simon Says, before running out as if nothing had happened.
  They’re gonna know he was the last one out, Grian groaned in his head. Oh, this is the WORST.
  He followed Scar down through lower engine, past electrical, and out the other side of storage. Scar stood next to Etho at the download screen in communications, before killing him too and immediately hitting the report button.
  Grian gasped. He’s self-reporting! That’s RISKY, considering everyone always gets sus of him when he reports, whether he’s imposter or not!
  “I found Etho in communications,” Scar reported.
  “Oh, and it looks like Tango’s down too,” added Bdubs. “Where did you say Etho is, Scar?”
  “Communications. Next to the download thingy.”
  “Did you see anyone around?” inquired Impulse.
  Scar shook his head. “I didn’t see anyone else after we all left reactor.” 
  “I went off on my own too,” Skizzleman admitted. “I only saw Impulse briefly as I passed admin, but that was a while ago.”
  “Can anyone vouch for anyone?” asked Impulse.
  Everyone shook their heads. 
  “Well, wonderful,” Impulse sighed. “I guess we can’t vote anyone this round.”
  Skizzleman patted his friend on the shoulder. “Don’t worry, there’s six of us left. The last imposter still has to kill four of us before they win.”
  Grian sighed with relief as the meeting ended with everyone voting to skip. He wasn’t sure how Scar had managed to get through another meeting without being labelled sus, but Grian certainly wasn’t going to complain.
  “Hey, Skizzle!” Scar called, trotting to catch up with the blue crewmate, who was heading towards medbay. “What task have you got now?” 
  “I gotta eat fruit,” said Skizzleman, as if that explained everything.
  Scar frowned. “What?”
  “Simon Says,” Skizzleman explained with a grin. “If I say “make sure to eat fruit” while I’m doing the task, it helps me make fewer mistakes.”
  “Oh, I see! Very clever. You mind if I come with? I gotta count to ten.”
  “Sure thing!”
  Grian followed the two over to reactor, knowing what was coming. Sure enough, Scar approached Skizzleman while he was in the middle of Simon Says.
  “This is for Grian,” he said coldly, before shooting Skizzleman in the back. 
  Grian stared at Scar as the latter hurriedly left reactor. He was starting to get the feeling that Scar might actually be able to pull this off. 
  But he didn’t want to get too ahead of himself yet. Scar was only halfway through; he still had to kill three more people. Around this point, Scar’s luck usually ran out. 
  Just as Grian started to sabotage something to help out, the body was reported by Pungence. 
  “Self-report,” Scar declared immediately.
  Grian hid his face in his hands. NO, Scar!
  But to his surprise, nobody immediately turned on his partner. 
  “Well, Bdubs and I were together,” Impulse said. “So it must be either Pungence or Scar.”
  “Pungence,” said Scar.
  “Scar,” said Pungence at the same time.
  “We can’t really afford to not vote someone out, here,” Bdubs said, glancing at Impulse. “I’m voting Scar.”
  Impulse, who had just locked in his own vote, blanched. “Oh, I voted for Pungence.”
  “Oh no!”
  Sure enough, as the votes were revealed, both Scar and Pungence had two votes each. 
  Grian was absolutely dumbfounded. He had been sure that that was the end for Scar, but somehow, his partner had survived. 
  He really might actually do it…!
  “I’m gonna do my task in security,” declared Pungence. “Someone come watch me.”
  “I will,” said Bdubs immediately. 
  After the meeting, Grian followed Scar to the right, watching him as he ran all the way from weapons, down to shields, then across to electrical, clearly looking for a victim. 
  “Two more kills,” murmured Grian, despite knowing Scar couldn’t hear him. “Just two more. Come on.”
  Scar entered security and found Bdubs on the monitors. He turned as Scar came in. “Scar! Don’t kill me!”
  Scar drew his gun.
  A real look of terror appeared on Bdubs’s face as he backed away from Scar as far as he could go. 
  An identical evil smile spread over Grian’s and Scar’s faces as the latter towered over Bdubs.
  “Scar, p-please…!” Bdubs’s eyes were wide with fear. “Please, I-!”
  BANG!
  Grian cheered as Bdubs’s body hit the ground. “Scar! You absolute legend! One more kill and we win!”
  Realising he needed to help keep the remaining crewmembers away from Bdubs’s body, he shut the door to security and stayed there, intending to keep watch. He didn’t need to follow Scar around this time.
  After a few minutes, he glanced up and found both Impulse and Scar on their way down from medbay. He realised that Scar had likely vented into medbay and was now discreetly leading a witness to the body as an alibi.
  So he quickly reopened the doors.
  Impulse walked into security, with Scar right behind him. The two yelped simultaneously at the sight of the body.
  Grian floated over to join the report meeting that Impulse had quickly called. 
  “Bdubs is dead in security,” reported Impulse. “Scar and I found him.” 
  “Impulse,” said Scar slowly, giving the crewmate in question a pointed look. “Didn’t we hear Pungence say he was going to do his task in security?”
  Impulse stared back at him in shock. “Oh… we DID!”
  “YES!” Grian screeched, hardly daring to hope. 
  “No, no, I left security ages ago,” Pungence quickly said. “I was down in communications.”
  Impulse frowned at him. “I didn’t see you that whole time, though. You could have vented to electrical or even just left normally; we don’t know how old the kill is.”
  “What about Scar?” demanded Pungence. “How long were you two together?”
  “A few minutes. Scar watched me scan in medbay, then he stood by me in cafeteria while I finished wires and then we went down to security to do Scar’s last task. He could’ve easily killed me several times but he didn’t.”
  “Okay, first of all, he could have been on cooldown,” Pungence pointed out. “And second, “he could have killed me but he didn’t” means nothing to Scar! He’s a wild card; he kills whenever he feels like it.”
  “Yeah, but even Scar would realise that one more kill would end the game,” argued Impulse. “Why would he purposefully lead me to a body he killed when he could just take me to a random spot on the ship and kill me with no witnesses?”
  Grian couldn’t believe the genius move that Scar was pulling off. Kill in security, “find” the body with a witness, then let Impulse’s penchant for third-impostering take over. Scar didn’t even need to say anything in this meeting; Impulse was doing all the work for him.
  And like Impulse had pointed out, Scar could have just stuck with Impulse until his cooldown was over and then killed him. It would have yielded the same result, and been a lot less risky for him as well. But he hadn’t done that. Why? The answer was clear to Grian:
  Scar wanted the satisfaction of stabbing Impulse in the back. 
  Clearly, Pungence couldn’t believe what he was hearing either. “Impulse, please don’t let him get away with this. He’s playing you for a fool.”
  “I don’t think so,” Impulse retorted. “Scar’s a lot of things but he’s not cunning. He wouldn’t be able to come up with a plan this smart. No offense, Scar.”
  Scar shrugged. “None taken. I totally agree.”
  “Of course you do,” Pungence sighed. “Impulse, please, you have to believe me or we’re gonna lose.”
  “It isn’t me!” Scar protested. “C’mon, Impulse, you know it’s not me. You said so yourself: it wouldn’t make any sense.”
  Grian held his breath as Impulse glanced from Scar to Pungence.
  Finally, he sighed. “You’re right; it wouldn’t. I’m voting Pungence.”
  As Impulse locked in his vote, Grian let out a long, triumphant whoop. “Scar, you LEGEND! You’re absolutely brilliant!” 
  Pungence buried his face in his hands as the votes were revealed. “Nooo…” 
  A grin appeared on Scar’s face as the airlock slowly closed behind Pungence. “Good job, Impulse. You made the right decision.” 
  Impulse registered the expression on his face and visibly sagged. “I-I didn’t, did I?”
  Grian flew around triumphantly as Scar drew his gun. 
  “For me, you absolutely did.”

ronarry for the ship game :v
ULTIMATE SHIP MEME! Send in two (or more) names and I’ll fill all this out about the ship! General:
Rate the Ship -   Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs
How long will they last? -FOREVER
How quickly did/will they fall in love? It was gradual for it to become romantic love. The two had such love for one another they didn't really realize the exact moment it became something different. But eventually they're Aurors and living together and basically ARE in a relationship- but after a bit and some of their friends being like 'please... please notice you're totally into one another' they get it.
How was their first kiss? - tentative, sweet, then almost immediately shifts into something intense and passionate.
Wedding:
Who proposed? -Ron he wants to lock this stuff down.
Who is the best man/men? -Hermione
Who is the braid’s maid(s)? -
Who did the most planning? -Equal
Who stressed the most? -Ron by a margin
How fancy was the ceremony? - Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.
Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? -idk draco?
Sex:
Who is on top? -I think they switch it up- but Ron tops more by like 15%
Who is the one to instigate things? -switches all the time
How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now
How kinky are they? - Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head
How long do they normally last? I think it'd be like 10 minutes on average- but it's an amazing 10 minutes.
Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? -normally yes!
How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.
How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory. Takes a bit for them to get used to that little change in their relationship, but then they take to it like a duck to water.
Children:
How many children will they have naturally? 0
How many children will they adopt? 1-2
Who gets stuck with the most diapers? -Ron bc I always picture him the stay at home dad type
Who is the stricter parent? -gawd they are sooo lax- Ron in general. Ron on home/school stuff and Harry on the most dangerous stuff
Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? Ron bc he has a better sense of 'oh that's too dangerous' than Harry.
Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? Harry. Ron makes most of the food but Harry has lunch duty most of the time.
Who is the more loved parent? -narrowest of margins Ron bc he's the more soft one who does more care.
Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? neither- but I guess Ron bc Harry is prone to be like 'the system sucks so I'll work from over here to change things' and Ron's like 'there's a meeting we could try if you have a bug up your arse about it.'
Who cried the most at graduation? -Harry
Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? -Harry as he has the most pull
Cooking:
Who does the most cooking? -Ron - harry CAN cook pretty well but Ron grows to actually enjoy.
Who is the most picky in their food choice? -Harry by a slim margin
Who does the grocery shopping? -Ron
How often do they bake desserts? -Like once every two weeks
Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? -meat

The only way I can see RWBY recovering in quality is if the island arc in volume 9 ends with seemingly days passing in the island world and a time skip in Remnant. The world of Remnant and their friends have moved on from the loss of RWBYJ in Atlas and have been dealing with Salem for 3 years or so. Gives the world time to heal from the damage RWBY+ caused in Atlas and with the broadcast and realize how much they fucked up following Ruby Rose blindly. Solves the age gap debates of Rosegarden if that's the ship they want to go with for Ruby and Oscar. Let's Sun move on from Blake organically and allows Blake to come to terms with any romantic feelings she had for him and how that chance is long gone. An opportunity for Salem to take control in a way that might not have been possible were it not for RWBY+'s actions in Atlas. Shows that the protagonists can fuck up and suffer consequences.
Ahhh, see, I specifically don't want a time skip because I think it likely will be a way to remove the affects of a bunch of the stuff that I want pay off for. You say that having the world have time to heal from RWBY + actions would be a good way to show the consequences, but I disagree with that. I think that'd actually be the quickest way to make Ruby's actions not matter and not seem important. Having her forced to see the full effects of her actions as the suffering is unfolding in front of her would be a way to get her to actually see for herself that maybe she's made some massive mistakes.
Can I paint a picture for you?
Ruby, Yang, Blake, Weiss, and Jaune get back from the island quickly, only a day having gone by for the people in Remnant. The refugees have just arrived in Vacuo, they lost tons of people trying to get through the desert, everyone is staggering with exhaustion as they move through the Vacuo streets, parents carrying their sobbing children, there are people throwing rocks at Winter and people trying to beg her to save them because they saw her fly through the gates and guessed that she was magic, there's sirens over a comm system in the city, trying to alert everyone to remain calm that's been going on for the hours it's taken to try and get everyone in and calm-ish in the first place. On top of that, the gates are flooded with guards working around the clock to keep Grimm out of the city, some of the exhausted Atlas hunters have gone there as well, Ren and Fiona and Team SSSN are desperately defending the last few hundred stragglers as they arrive. Ruby, Yang, Weiss, Blake, and Jaune are shocked, dismayed, they manage to get to the Academy where Nora is there with Oscar and Theodore, Theodore trying to get in contact with the Vacuo council in clear distress. Oscar tells them that everything has gone wrong, that everyone is panicking, that Vacuo was already struggling with keeping the Grimm away from the city when Ruby's message came, and with the addition of the refugees, the Grimm are coming in by the hundreds - by the thousands - almost more than the Vacuo authorities can fight back. Ruby is so confused, she'd been trying to reunite the world! But she just brought panic instead, and she now has to contend with that while seeing the immediate aftermath. She knows Qrow is missing, she tries calling him on her scroll, hoping she just missed him among the refugees. She and Yang are going crazy with worry, they think he might've been stuck in Atlas, he might be hurt, he might be dead, he might get captured by Salem, and they both have to face that. Being assigned by Theodore to help get refugees to the homes they've been temporarily assigned to squeeze into, Ruby is confronted by grieving families who lost everything, parents who tell her their daughter was one of the Atlas soldiers who died fighting on the front lines at Atlas, a couple with four kids spit at her and refuse her help because to them, her broadcast felt like a death sentence for Atlas while she called for hope for the rest of the world like they didn't matter. As she's traveling, Ruby runs into Neon and Flynt. They're angry and bitter too, coldly telling her that Ivori and Kobalt died in the fight against Salem. Ruby leaves that encounter wiping away tears. She wants to break down, but then gets assigned her next family to move and has to push it down and get back to work trying to do her job. Meanwhile Weiss has to deal with a brother who still clearly needs someone to help and take care of him when their relationship is somewhat rocky. Nora and Ren have to have distance and sort through what they want in their relationship and we see that and the immediate affects of their breakup. Salem has two Relics and Ruby has to explain that to Ozpin and maybe admit some mistakes and apologize while it's still relevant enough to matter to him. Emerald sees the affects of a lot of what she's done and has to contend with the fact that Mercury will be in Vacuo and she has to choose whether to try and help him or fight him instead. Mercury and Tyrian have to react in real time to the fact that the Atlas plans went completely sideways and now there's tons of people from Atlas here ruining whatever plans they have for Vacuo. Team RWBY work with Team SSSN while his and Blake's relationship is still clearly going to matter to him and he wants to continue where they left things and she has to explain her shift in feelings. Oscar is still contending with the fact that he and Oz are going to merge someday, asking questions about that. Salem must regroup now with so few people, and Cinder is going to have to try and keep up her lies in real time. Neo (if she survived the
island) is going to actually have to either get scrapped as a character or grow beyond her motivation of just wanting revenge. Winter is dealing with powers that are still new (remember, Maidens being 'new' is supposed to mean something) and having her whole world crash around her, while also maybe finally interacting with the family members outside of Weiss who have just had their entire way of life gone and now must adjust to sudden poverty. Qrow, Robyn, and the Ace Ops might have a storyline where they deal with what just happened themselves, maybe launching rescue for some of the people who didn't make it through the portals (like Pietro and Maria.)
These are all really important things that we should be expecting pay off for that should get focus and development. Ren and Nora's relationship problems, Oscar dealing with merging with Oz, how Cinder is going to regroup now, what will happen with Mercury, what the Schnees will do now they've suddenly lost everything, how Emerald is going to go on from her 'side switching,' how Qrow and Robyn reacted and where they'll go from here, whether or not Vacuo can even take in refugees, what the people think of RWBY and what consequences they've had to go through, and especially RWBY seeing the aftermath of the things instead of being allowed to just move on to the next thing and write it off as a victory like they did with Haven... All of that is something that we're likely to miss if we have a big time skip.
What I really don't want is for everyone to get back to the world after three to five years have passed only to see that it's doing pretty okay right now. Vacuo thriving with the Grimm population under control, and everything a little crowded, but most of the Atlas population settled in their new homes at this point, many of the important relationships of the side cast have been solved off screen and Maria, Pietro, and Qrow are already in Vacuo and have already adjusted to their various losses (both real for Pietro and believed for Qrow,) while (like you suggested,) Sun has just moved on from his dead former love interest he never got closure with that he promised to see again, because it has been years, and BlackSun fans like me see him in some relationship with someone he's never had any growth at all with (or maybe Neptune, which is... the preferable option over someone Sun's never actually talked to before.) Now Ruby doesn't see that her choices have caused major problems, instead she sees a city doing fine and if anyone is angry at her for causing them problems three to five years ago, they're mean. She's been supposedly dead for years and that person is just fine now! How can they yell at her? Now she doesn't see people suffering and Grimm flooding, she sees that her plan worked out in the long run, everyone just needed to hold on and have faith. She doesn't see a giant economic crash and families uprooted and soldiers dead and Pietro's reaction to the death of his daughter and people panicking over Salem... Ruby sees people talking about Salem as common knowledge, amassing troops to go after her now that the 'hard times' have started to pass, and she's validated. She knew it would turn out, she knew if she just believed, things would start working out!
I don't think the writers could save this show with a time skip, I think they'd just use it as a way to jump past the immediate affects of Ruby and her group's actions and avoid organic growth and problem solving while 'not being unrealistic' about it. If they brought RWBYJ back to Remnant within days, weeks, or even months, people expect real repercussions for the things that happened in the previous couple of seasons. They won't be able to just pretend none of it happened - or they might, but then most people will (hopefully) realize that's stupid.
So their choices are 1. just waving everything away and pretending there aren't any consequences to actions, 2. bring RWBYJ back in days, weeks, or months and address and deal with problems in a way that feels natural, 3. have a time skip so they can bypass the affects and consequences and avoid giving pay off for much of the things that fans have been expecting and waiting around for.

Seasick→P.P pt.2
Parings→ peter Parker x reader
Warnings→slowburn, fake dating, fluff
Summary→when you lie to your mom about having a boyfriend before vactation peter steps in to help. But being in a fake relationship isnt as easy as you thought. especially not easy when you two have feelings for one another. 
A/n→ here is part two of seasick! @spectacularlyspidey made me this lovely moodboard, I love Ren 🥰 I hope you guys enjoy it and I’m going to try and post it more often if that is what you guys want💗
Tumblr media
Toothbrush, Peter, you need your toothbrush.” May helps him pack. She seemed more excited than peter. Peter placed his clothes into bens old suitcase as if it was a chore. Hes scared, beyond scared. What if your family hates him, what if they think hes less of what they expected, what if they catch on? All the ideas and scenarios ran through his head.
“May, i've got it. I'm 19 not 14.” he reminded her and she pouted. She knew the whole plane, he had nothing to hide from her Anyways.
“You know that you can still say no.” she comes over to run a hand through Peter's hair. She knew when Peter had a crush, she always did. Although normally he'd get scared of going on a field trip with one or a study date, never a summer vacation.
“She needs me to do this. I told her i would and were setting boundaries on the plane so when we get there its not weird.” he told her and she hummed.
“I know you really like her, like more than a friend. I have a tingle too.” she teases and peter scrunches his face. “But think this can be a start, you maybe could start something here.” she kisses his forehead before leaving him in his rom to finish packing. He looks over at his phone to see the time, he sees how you’ll be at his house soon and picking him up for the airport. The airport where you'd meet your family in Florida where you’d go out to sea.
He shuts the suitcase and listens to the sound of it zipping up before flopping on his bed letting the time run out.
-
8 hours, it was an 8 hour flight filled with anxiety and fear. You had both agreed on a list. A list of things to do around your family
-forehead kisses are allowed(kisses on the lips not necessary unless needed)
-holding hands as often as we can
-snuggling up to one another
-going places together like the pool or restaurant
-pet names
-make up stories about each other
-hands always on one another
That was about it. That's all you two had to do and you'd keep it up for a week. Then when the two of you get home things go back to normal. Normal. That word hurt peters ears. Normal meant there were no real feelings and he'd have to let go of you.
“I-i can hold your bags.” he offered as you two got off the plane. He wore his Columbia hoodie with sweats, probably not the best option for landing in Florida but he was so nervous.
You give him a warm smile and nod. You were nervous too, for almost all the same reasons as peter. You wished you could have just taken ned, ned or another friend who was just seen as your friend. Someone you didn't have to think so much about kissing. Someone you didn't have to think about pretending to hold. Someone you didn't have to worry catching feelings for.
“Wait,” you stop him and he looks at you with soft eyes. “My mom is really....touchy. She loves hugging and she might kiss your cheek. It’s nothing to intentionally make you uncomfortable but i'm really sorry in advance.” you warn him.
He nods as from a distance your mom shouts your name. She's wearing a sundress and sandals, ready for a vacation. Your dad is next to her smiling ready to hug you, now he knew it was real. All of it was now real. If your mom and dad intimidated him he was scared to see the rest of your family.
“Oh sweetheart i've missed you so much, ugh New York is such a small yet big state. We wished college did hog you so much.” she kisses your cheeks.
“Mom, dad, this is my boyfriend...Peter, the one I've been telling you about.” you hold his arm and he's already smiling and going in to shake hands. Your mom takes him for a hug and gets pink lipgloss on his cheek.
He sees how much you look like her, the hair, the eyes, the smile that's so contagious, but the personalities are completely different. She was bubbly and happy all over the place while you, you were a little more reserved and only showed the good side to your friends. Save the best parts of you for the best people.
“Ugh i was starting to think she'd never get one, especially not one so handsome and smart.” she holds his arms giving them a squeeze. “Wow he works out too you can really tell.” You quickly take him back before he gets uncomfortable.
“Mom…” you warn and she scoffs.
“Sweetheart, you know I'm teasing. Your sisters are already boarded and waiting so we can leave when you two are ready.” sisters. You never told him about sisters. He didn't even know you had any siblings. He thought you were always an only child. You never talked about any siblings or really family except your mom and dad and occasionally your aunt.
But he can tell by your facial expressions that you were already dreading it more than him, dredging sisters but he didn't know why. He wasn't going to push it either. By the shift in your body he knew it was best to just question when you two were alone.
He willingly followed your family into a cab where you four set off for a week of one of the hardest masks he had to put on, the mask of pretending to love you when he really did but could never tell you.
-
Never being on a cruise ship before he had no idea what to expect. His bare knowledge being the titanic—which did not help his fear of the ocean—even for the smartest kid, normally, he didn’t know much about boats. He never even considered himself to be on one, until last summer he never even thought he’d be in Europe for his senior year of highschool. That’s how he had to think of this, Europe. Semi-relaxing, regular peter, Europe. This was a once and a lifetime opportunity for him to be on a cruise with no Spider-Man activity, No stress, nothing but the sun on his skin.
“So we eat dinner at 7pm, you kids can get all settled in...maybe find yourself at the spa or the pool. Don’t be shy to order room service, ugh the boy is handsome but skinny.” Your mom comments once again. You give her eyes and a groan as you follow her down the hall to your room. “Oh please, you eat too, you're starting to lose your color.” She picks up your arm and you take it back.
He didn’t think the teasing was that bad, sure the appearance comments were too soon but he thought it was all a part of her bubbly personality. May teases all of them to eat when they’re over. May has teased all of them but always in a nice way.
When Peter dated Gwen—his ex girlfriend—last year she was the same. Always telling Peter about his appearance but he never really cared what she had to say. He just really needed someone at the time to move on from you.
“Here is your room, you kids have fun.” She hands you the card and kisses your cheek. “Wear the sundress your sister picked out, don’t be late.” She warned and walked down the hall. Only a few hours in and you wished you would’ve made some crap excuse about having a late final or actually telling the truth.
You two enter the room and Peter is shocked. It’s a gorgeous beach themed room. If he were a child he would already be jumping on the bed and touching everything. You seem to just drop your bags on the floor and immediately go to the bathroom. He leaves you be, taking in the beauty of the room, the California king bed, the wall hung T.V. The view of the ocean that made him slightly nervous but he didn’t mind. There was a dress on the bed, the sundress your mom wanted you to wear.
“Oh fuck.” You rub your face seeing that there’s the one bed. You thought maybe she’d at least use some sense and get two beds, that or a two roomed hotel. “I’m sorry pete, I thought she would maybe get us two rooms or—“
Another thing he seemed to notice was how money didn’t seem to be an issue for your family yet you never seemed to come off as well off. You lived in a small apartment like peter, your clothes were mostly thrifted or old, you ate ramen about three times a week and if it wasn’t that it was cheap pizza. Just like the rest of the group. You never came off as rich, it shocked him to even hear about a cruise, it shocked him even more that you could just say about how they could’ve gotten two rooms on a ship.
“It’s a California king,” he gestures. “We’ll fit without touching each other.” He calms you with a soft smile seeing how stressed you were.
“You’re not too scared of ships are you?” You ask him remembering how he said something about being afraid of the water.
“Well...Uh...no but yes, it makes me nervous but—“ your hand places itself over peters for comfort and he freezes up. You notice and quickly take your hand away.
“It won’t feel like anything trust me, you don’t feel the ship rock or anything. It’s not the titanic.” You reminded him as you picked up your phone and looked at the time. You two had plenty of time to get yourself ready.
“So….” he clasp his hands together and you look over to him. “For dinner how should I act?” He questions. You’re getting comfortable in the bed already while he’s still scared to touch it.
“Just be Peter, um...maybe a hand around my shoulder at one point or hand holding? Just like our list said. Really sell it. They’re gonna ask a lot of questions of how we met and stuff like that but I can do all of them if you want.” You tell him and he nods.
“Right,” he responded thinking the best thing to do was just be peter, the peter you knew, not the peter who was totally in love with you. “Just be peter.”
And that’s all he had to do.

So a long time ago I wrote a start of a fic where Ryuji gets knocked out from Shido's explosion and is thrown back into the real world, unconscious. Ren brings him to Takemi's clinic and then answers Ryuji's phone when he realizes Mama Sakamoto is calling, attempting to make some kind of cover story for Ryuji not coming home or answering his phone before it becomes apparent she ID'd Ryuji from the video calling card. She's coming over to the clinic, and she wants answers.
AND THAT'S WHERE IT STALLED FOREVER. If anyone would like to take a look at what I have of part 2, where she gets to the clinic:
Ren was in the middle of sending an update to the group chat when the door to the clinic opened. The woman who walked in was short and dark-haired, and Ren had the split-second impulse to ask her if she had a real emergency--god knew he didn't want anything drawing Takemi's attention away from Ryuji right now--before her eyes landed on him with a look of such contempt that Caroline might have asked for tips.
The text for the group chat was forgotten. It would have only been to report that there was nothing to report yet. "Sakamoto-san?" he hazarded, his voice wavering.
"Where," she said flatly, "is my son."
He didn't know why it should have thrown him off so much that her hair wasn't bleached blond--of course it wasn't. But even besides that, she really didn't look like Ryuji at all. Short, somewhat stout, with a wider nose and other differences in the face...when it came to looks, Ryuji must have taken after his father's side.
Ren immediately knew he'd rather eat one of his daggers than say that to either mother or son.
"Sakamoto-san," Takemi said, emerging from the back. "Your son is in here. He suffered a concussion and Amamiya-kun brought him to me for examination." Her tone was a bit more polite than her usual, if still casual, and Ren appreciated that maybe she was trying to pull his fat from the fire.
"I want an explanation for all of this," Sakamoto-san said angrily. "...But I want to see him, first."
Ah. Now Ren saw the family resemblance, both in her expression and her protectiveness.
Takemi nodded, opening the door for Sakamoto-san to go in. Ren started to rise from his seat, wanting to see Ryuji himself, but a flat look from the doctor stopped him cold. She didn't want him following.
Logically, he knew Takemi was simply keeping things orderly and controlled. Ryuji's mother was upset, and Takemi knew she was mad at him already. Better to keep him out of the room if Sakamoto-san might take any of Takemi's news badly.
But the feeling that stirred in his gut was blame and guilt, making him cover his face with his hands after the door had closed. He felt sick.
He couldn't deny his responsibility. It had been his idea to stall in the safe room instead of immediately stealing Shido's treasure after Futaba broadcasted the calling card. If stalling had been the deciding factor in Shido being able to manipulate his own cognition and cause the violent collapse... Then it was completely his fault.
He shouldn't even care about what Ryuji's mother thought of him, anyway. That could wait until after Ryuji had woken up. But the cold way she'd looked at him hurt, pathetically enough. He'd really hoped that she would like him. Mostly because Ryuji was afraid she'd be upset when he came out to her--she'd asked a couple of times about him getting a girlfriend. Ren was hopeful, considering she'd supported her son through thick, thin, and hair bleach, and might only be asking about girlfriends because Ryuji was way more vocal about his interest in cute girls than cute guys, but he understood Ryuji's fear. There was always the chance that it would be the one thing too far. So he'd wanted to make a good impression on her when they met, hoping it'd help her accept it better whenever Ryuji was ready to come out.
But Ren had also just...selfishly wanted Ryuji's mother to like him. He'd wanted to make a good impression on her because Ryuji always lit up when he talked about her, and she sounded like a great mom, and Ren wanted someone like that to look at him and think that he could be a decent match for her son. That he was a good kid.
Well. He'd fucked that up already. He pressed his fingers against his closed eyes, forcing a deep breath as he tried to press the tears back. This wasn't the time for being weak and selfish. He had to worry about Ryuji waking up first. Then he could worry about making sure Ryuji wasn't grounded forever, and that he wasn't strangled for endangering Ryuji.
Except that still left him with nothing he could do for the time being.
He felt so useless. He wished he could have taken Ryuji to Shibuya station. If he could have just gotten him to the entrance of Mementos with Morgana, the two of them might have been able to heal Ryuji. But they hadn't been sure if cognitive healing would help when someone was plain knocked out cold in the real world; bringing him to the clinic had seemed the safer bet. But now...
Ren groaned. First he'd left Akechi behind a solid wall of metal on a ship that was now sunk. And now, Ryuji...
Takemi was speaking to Ryuji's mother in the room at length, and Ren rested his head against the wall, hoping to hear through it. Good news? Bad news? He could only hear her tone, calm and level. Takemi wasn't the type to sugarcoat, but she still highlighted better outcomes when they were possibilities to her patients. She'd said once that people often had improved outcomes if they were given attentive care and thought they should get better. She called it a placebo effect. Morgana called it the power of cognition.
But since Ryuji wasn't conscious, he didn't know he was being treated by one of the best doctors in Tokyo. That he should get better and just please wake up.
Ryuji's mother didn't seem any happier when Takemi opened the door for her to step back out into the waiting room. Ren felt his whole body stiffen when Takemi closed the door again, half-expecting to be screamed at, but Ryuji's mother just stared him down. When she spoke, her voice was tightly controlled. "So you're the leader of the Phantom Thieves. What must your parents think?"
"My parents?" he echoed.
She laughed, but it sounded more disbelieving than genuine. "You think they don't know? I recognized Ryuji plain as day under that weird skull-mask. Yours shows even more of your face. Do they actually approve of all this?"
That was a question he hadn't even considered recently, and he weighed what honest answer he could give her that didn't sound self-pitying. No, he didn't think they knew at all. They didn't have reason to look at the calling card too closely. Didn't have any suspicions about his after school activities, or any clue that he wasn't even in school for the time being. Ryuji's phone had several voicemails from his mother tonight alone. Ren's phone hadn't rang once tonight, and it had been a while since he had gotten a message from either his father or mother.
He was taking too long to answer; something in Sakamoto's expression shifted. "I don't have their approval," he said quickly, before she could get further upset. "I act for my own sense of justice."
"An' you dragged Ryuji right along into it," Sakamoto said.
That wasn't quite accurate, but Ren nodded anyway. "...Yes." It had a grain of truth to it: Igor had given the app to him. Ryuji would never have been thrown into the metaverse if he hadn't run into Ren. And it would be better to just get this over with. Take her anger and her blame. It was his fault she was upset.
Ryuji's mother took a long, deep breath. "What happened?"
"It's...hard to explain."
"Sure, you steal hearts and desires and whatnot. I still want an explanation," she pressed.
...He had no idea if she'd be patient enough for an explanation of the Metaverse. He'd bet on not. So he described the situation in broad strokes: "The group was in trouble. Ryuji took a risk to get us out safe. And he pulled it off. We could have all ended up dead if it wasn't for him." Futaba didn't know how to swim. Even for the rest of them, the waters had been turbulent enough that Ren didn't think their odds would have been good, not when they'd also had to navigate to their entrance point in the dark of night, already exhausted from a grueling fight. Perhaps some of them would have made it out...he doubted it would have been all of them. "But he got hurt. I'm--I'm sorry. It's my fault we were in that position."
"Why?"
"I...made the group wait before we changed Shido's heart. I was hoping..." Ren's voice shook, and the rest of the words failed to come.
He'd been hoping Akechi would show up. If Akechi had been alive, no matter if he was hiding somewhere in the Palace or trying to stay under the radar in Tokyo, as soon as they'd took over the airwaves with their calling card and set the Palace's security to high alert, Akechi would know. He would know they were taking Shido's heart. He would know that they would be in the Palace.
He could have joined them. So Ren had asked everyone to wait for an hour in one safe room as he warped between all of them and entrance, checking to see if Akechi would manage to drag himself in. Ann and Ryuji had both volunteered to help, and he'd been grateful, but he figured it was better if everyone else stayed together so they weren't split up between several different locations. When he hadn't spotted Akechi in the hour, he'd come back to the group and asked Futaba if she could do a scan for him--a last-ditch request, since she had every right to refuse to help.
Futaba had looked absolutely miserable. She'd already tried multiple scans. There was nothing. Ren had made everyone wait for nothing. He should have known it was too much to hope after Akechi had closed himself off behind the door. He'd only given Shido more time to counter.
"We were missing one," Ren said finally. Maybe Akechi would have objected to being counted as one of the group, but it was the simplest way to explain now. And he...wasn't going to object, anyway. "I made the group wait, but they never showed."
"They in some kind of trouble?"
The question surprised him a little, but this wasn't a subject he wanted to dwell on any longer. "Nothing I can help with," Ren said.
-and that's it so far.
And I'm just kind of......unsure where to go from there. Which makes me wonder if I should have started the dialogue differently or change something else earlier or...what.

My ship thoughts
This will be a long post, so I’m putting it under a ‘keep reading”
Bumbleby  - Until Vol.4 I wasn’t sure if the Bees liked each other. Like yeah, we’ve had solid evidence since, like, their Vol.1 trailers. But still. I wasn’t sure CRWBY would do it. But wow was I impressed.  - Probably my favorite well-known ship - Their EYES are the colors of each others SOULS what more do you want??? - I wish my gf would throw a motorcycle at my abusive ex...
Nuts and Dolts  - I tried pushing this ship out of my mind for so long. I did. I wasn’t ready for it  - I appreciated the things people made for the ship. I knew it had potential  - But wow. Vol.8 really said “Nuts and Dolts rights” and I respect that - They’re so cute together. It’s like if Pyrrha came back to life and could be with Jaune again.  - But healthier this way (see Arkos)
Renora  - Wholesome - Cute - ‘Boop’ is one of my favorite songs - We all saw it coming. But how we got there was the fun part  - That Vol. 4 finale though...
Arkos  - First off, Arkos is my favorite ship from Vol.1-3 - Himbo is taught how to drink his respect women juice by an Amazon? Sign me up  - The character development, the mutual respect, the CARE - ForeverFall still fucks me up. I cry when I listen to it - I love Pyrrha, she’s my girl, but... She really betrayed Jaune’s trust at the very end. He told her specifically he never wanted to be helpless and watch his friends fight for their lives again. And she did exactly that to him. Making him wonder if he could have made a difference had he been able to fight by her side with her in the end.  - But it’s not really even Pyrrha’s fault. Ozpin’s expectations and Cinder’s plan are more to blame - Still high tier - It’s just so tragic
WhiteKnight  - Cute in theory  - But it’d have to be done so carefully to be a good romantic pairing  - As friends? I LOVE IT. Make these two best friends right now! - But Jaune moved past his feelings for Weiss in Vol.2 when he finally realized she meant it when she told him she didn’t like him  - I’m shocked though that so few people pick up on Ep.3 Vol.1 when Weiss is making fun of Jaune and mockingly calls him a “cute boy”. I think Jaune just thought Weiss liked him already, and went from there. He hits on Pyrrha pretty quick in Ep.4 too - I think it could work with who they are now, but I think they’re better as friends 
WhiteRose  - The sole reason I didn’t ship Nuts and Dolts sooner  - Vol. 6 messed me up okay? That red scarf really threw me for a loop - Chasing each other in the Argus Limited?  - Weiss sassing Ruby non-stop Vol.1-3?  - It also completes the RW BY JP NR pairings. I like to joke that the Emerald forest is actually “true love” forest. And whoever you lock eyes with first you fall in love with them. But that only works sometimes  - Also that part where they call out each others names when Jinn shows them Ozpin’s past 
Ladybug  - Cute and interesting  - I’m not against it. I would just need more of it to ship it myself - They just have such solid connections with other characters  - I do love Blake’s introduction to the main cast though, and how much Blake looks up to Ruby 
Freezerburn  - Similar to LadyBug  - Cute, but I just ship them more with other people  - That hug in Vol.5 was a bit sus though - Yang does seem to open up the most with Weiss - And Weiss defended Yang so quickly after the Mercury fight  - It’s not unfounded, I’ll say that  - Analyzing it has opened my eyes 
Crosshares  - Yes  - Just  - Yes  - High femme fashion ICON Coco Adel  - With fan-fave Velvet Scarlatina - WLW powercouple  - I wish I was Coco and Velvet is cute, not much to understand here, keep scrolling 
RoseGarden  - I have my concerns  - Oscar is a wonderful kid  - He probably has a crush on Ruby  - And he is a wholesome boy who deserves all the happiness  - But he also has a manipulative immortal Wizard in his head  - So - You know
Lancaster  - I never saw Lancaster. Jaune is the first boy Ruby meets. And Jaune calls her cute and quirky once, but... - I love Ruby’s talk with Jaune about failure in Vol. 1, then his return to that speech in Vol. 4 in return.  - I think they lean on each other as leaders - But I don’t see it going further - Cute though. I’ve seen nice fanart 
BlackSun  - I read an analysis a long time ago that really sat with me  - Blake asked for space (not out loud, but in action) when she ran away - Yang gave her what she wanted. She didn’t like it. But she gave Blake what she asked for.  - Sun on the other hand, didn’t. He followed and helped her anyway. (Believe me, Blake could have used all the help she could get in Vol. 4-5) But in doing so, he kinda took himself out of the running as love interest.  - He’s and excellent Foil for Blake though, so I love him
SeaMonkies  - Two bros, chilling in a hot tub... - Is it gay to become junior detectives with your best friend and only hang out with him for like 3 seasons?  - These two are just  - So fucking stupid  - Apart, they are fine. Very competent.  - Together though - They are just so dumb I think its cute as hell 
JNR  - Wholesome  - I could see it in Argus. In front of Pyrrha’s statue - They love each other  - Maybe its not 100% romantic  - But they love each other  - I could be happy here
JNR+Neo  - CRIME + Ren  - The pure chaos of Nora and Neo  - The exhausted mom-friend energy from Ren and Jaune - The power polycule that could take on Salem alone and maybe win? - I think it’d be cute, but I personally ship them in the two pairs a bit more. 
Bees Schnees  - We add Blake and Yang’s angst, Yang and Weiss’ trust, and Weiss and Blake’s mutual understanding and growth  - Wow okay  - I have to give it to you, I kinda like it
Neo x Jaune x Ruby  - Based on my response to Lancaster, you might be able to guess my answer here - I think a lot of the ship’s points lie in “What’s better than one short girl dating the tallest guy in the cast? Two short girls dating the tallest guy in the cast!” - Cute though, I think it’d be chaotic and wholesome  - But poor Jaune would be exhausted trying to make sure the house doesn;t burn down every five minutes 
May x Winter  - Look - If I hadn’t made a Neo x Jaune side blog  - I would have made a May x Winter side blog  - The comparisons  - The family legacies  - The pure amount of how attracted I am to both characters  - What happens when two tops date each other?  - What if they were partners in Atlas?  - What if May was Winter’s first crush. And after May came out, Winter was like “Oh thank the gods, I was worried I liked all women and only one guy for some reason. Cool, crisis adverted. So anyway, Marigold, here’s how you do your makeup” - I could go on - Haha don’t tempt me - I’m serious  - Please let them sass each other at some point
GuardDogs  - Marrow = Just doing his best  - Jaune = Just doing his best  - Marrow and Jaune = two himbos just vibing in this world  - If we don’t get Silentknight, I’d be proud to get GuardDogs - Marrow sure has been worried about “Juan” this whole time, huh?
Emercury  - The sass - The pure sass  - Mercury’s unearned confidence paired with Emerald’s quick temper  - Wow, I hope Em can turn him away from murdering people.  - If Em gets 1 friend, I hope its Mercury and not Cinder  - At least Mercury cares about her (But he’s too cool to admit that outright) - Mercury is going to see Em on RWBY’s team and just immediately walk over and join up. No questions asked. “I guess we’re good now. Sorry Tyrian, its been cool, not really”
Happy Huntresses - Yes - Look at that HUG - Ladies, is it gay to go off into the tundra and form a rebellion against the fascist government with three of your hottest gal pals?

Please, consider writing a fic where the residents of Amnesty Lodge and the Pine Guard go to the WV Ren Faire. Sylphs don’t wear their disguises? Your choice of ships. Thank you so much for your writing!!!
thank you so much for the prompt!! this is kind of... ot4 adjacent? t rated. i also haven't been to a ren faire since i was a little kid so there's that
Going to a renaissance faire had been Joseph’s idea, and Duck had been happy to go along with it, because even if the faire itself turned out to be boring he’d at least get to enjoy looking at his boyfriend in shorts. They were walking hand-in-hand past the row of artists when Joseph stopped stock still.
“What?” said Duck, and followed Joseph’s gaze to a booth whose calligraphied sign read
INDRID COLD
FORTUNES TOLD
PORTRAITS PAINTED
The inner walls of the booth were hung with art, presumably the work of the pale-haired, dark-skinned man standing there.
Joseph dragged Duck over by the hand. “Is that Hercules fighting the hydra?” he said to the artist, gesturing to one of the larger paintings. Duck looked at it. The musculature of Hercules’s back was depicted a little too lovingly to be entirely heterosexual, but then again, you could say the same about Michelangelo. A seven headed-serpent loomed over him, iridescent scales and fangs dripping with venom. Another man held out a torch. A tiny brown crab crept towards Hercules’ heel.
“Good eye, my lord,” said the artist. “Yes, I’ve done quite a few mythological scenes.” Duck spotted a painting of Andromeda being rescued from the sea monster by Perseus, the water boiling at her feet, and a portrait of a beautiful, cruel-eyed Medusa. Some of the other art in the booth appeared to have been inspired by medieval illuminated manuscripts, like an epic battle between tiny knights and giant snails.
“Oh, God, I can’t pick which one I like the most,” muttered Joseph.
“Perhaps you’d be interested in a portrait of the two of you? It would be an honor to draw gentlemen as handsome as yourselves.”
Joseph looked to Duck for permission, and Duck shrugged. “It’d make a good souvenir.”
“Do you take card?” Joseph inquired.
“I don’t know the medieval way to say it, but yes.”
“Great! We’d like one of the full-color ones.”
He’d bought the most expensive kind, and Indrid gestured them to a couple of folding chairs. “Make yourselves comfortable however you like.”
“Can I be leaning against him?” said Stern.
“Sure.” Indrid arranged a pencil and a set of pastels at his side and sat down behind the easel.
Duck put his arm around Stern’s shoulder and took the opportunity to study the artist. He was quite good looking, and his eyes were clever on Joseph and Duck’s faces.
“Is this your first time at the faire?” Indrid asked politely.
“Yeah,” said Duck.
“My first time at this one,” said Joseph. “I used to go to one every year in Illinois, but I just moved to Virginia.”
“Well, welcome. I thought it might be your first time, I’d certainly remember seeing you before.”
When he finally turned the canvas around Joseph gasped. He’d done an excellent job. Captured, in fact, the features that he himself liked best about Duck. Strength and softness, dark brown hair barely streaked with gray, eyes that were just slightly different colors and a good-natured grin.
Duck, for his part, was looking at how Indrid had drawn Stern: capturing his uprightness perfectly, the way he looked slightly out-of-place in a t shirt. His perfectly combed hair and the intelligent gleam in his dark eyes. “Damn,” he said, and Indrid glowed from the praise.
“I’d like to buy the Hercules as well,” Joseph said. “It’d fit perfectly right above my desk.”
Indrid wrapped up the portrait and the Hercules painting, put them in a paper bag, and handed it over to Joseph, who immediately handed it to Duck to carry.
They said good-bye to Indrid and wandered on, though none of the other booths in the art section caught their attention. Then they watched the joust, livened up significantly by Joseph leaning down to whisper “that is not how people behave when they get stabbed” in Duck’s ear.
The area where the food stalls were was a cauldron of delicious smells, and after the joust Duck beelined towards a booth promising french onion soup. Only when he got close, Joseph on his heels, did he notice a familiar figure: Indrid was leaning on the counter talking to the man behind it. He smiled when Duck and Joseph came up next to him. “Oh, hello! I had the pleasure of painting these two’s portrait earlier,” he said to the man at the soup stall, whose name tag read BARCLAY.
“If you like Indrid’s art you must have good taste,” said Barclay.
“Thank you,” said Joseph, trying not to stare. Barclay had auburn hair and a beard that did nothing to conceal the handsomeness of the face beneath it, and he wore a sleeveless leather doublet that showed off his broad chest and beefy arms.
“What can I get for you?” Barclay said pleasantly.
“French onion soup in a bread bowl, please,” said Duck, already pulling out his wallet.
“Good choice!” said Barclay. “It’ll take me a minute to melt the cheese on top, but I think it’s worth it, don’t you?”
“Always,” said Duck, delighted to meet a fellow man of taste.
The soup, needless to say, was delicious despite, the heat of the day.
--
Indrid Cold, seer and artist extraordinaire, was bent over the sink in an Olive Garden bathroom, scrubbing at his shirt with the hand soap. Working ren faires wasn’t enough to pay the bills, so he was also a busboy, and today he’d tripped while carrying a full tray of plates. He’d managed to stop any of the plates from shattering, but someone’s half-eaten ravioli with marinara sauce had slid down his whole front.
Finally Indrid gave up and pulled his shirt off to clean it more effectively, and of course it was at that moment, with his shirt half over his head, that the door to the men’s room opened.
When he got the shirt all the way off his face went hot with humiliation. It was one half of the hot couple from the ren faire, the ones he’d almost given his number to, now dressed in a suit jacket and white button-down. And Indrid was standing there shirtless and smelling like garlic.
“Oh, hi!” the hottie said. “Indrid, right? From the ren faire?”
“Yes,” said Indrid miserably, trying to hide his skinny chest with his shirt.
“You’re having dinner here too?”
“No, I work here.”
“Oh, cool! Duck and I come here for date night sometimes. Uh, I’m Joseph by the way.”
Indrid perked up a little, since Joseph didn’t seem to be laughing at him. “It’s nice to meet you again!”
One of the waiters opened the door and leaned inside. “Indrid! Table seven needs clearing, and a wet shirt won’t kill you.”
Indrid looked sadly down at the shirt in his hand. It wouldn’t kill him, but it would make him miserable, and there were still four hours left in his shift.
“Want to switch shirts?” said Joseph. “We’re about the same size.”
“I can’t take your fancy shirt,” Indrid said.
“Sure you can. Duck will understand. And I’ll give you my number so we can trade back tomorrow.” He was already unbuttoning his shirt.
“Oh - okay!” said Indrid, and tried to squeeze as much of the water out of his own shirt as he could before handing it over. The fabric of Joseph’s shirt felt amazing against his skin, and it smelled like expensive cologne, and when he got it buttoned he realized it was a little too wide in the shoulders for him, even though he was taller. “I don’t have my phone on me,” he said. He usually left it in his locker while he was working.
Joseph pulled his phone out of his pocket. “Here, just put your number in mine. I’ll text you.”
Indrid took the extra second to add a spaghetti emoji next to his name before handing the phone back. “Thank you so much. I owe you one, seriously,” he said on his way back out the door.
Duck raised his eyebrows when Joseph came back to the table wearing a damp t shirt (he’d spent several minutes squeezing the rest of the water out of it) underneath his suit jacket. “I was starting to wonder if you’d fallen in,” Duck said.
“Nope! And you’ll never guess whose number I just got.”

RWBY VOLUME 8 EPISODE 9 SPECULATION!!!
Hello Hello Hello.....and WELCOME To The Next RWBY Specualtion Post!!! Let’s jump right in again see what we get RIGHT and what I’ll undoubtedly get WRONG again!!!
-(Qrow and Robyn’s Escape) As we saw last episode there are a few soldiers in the remains of the prison cells after Cinder escapes with Watts. After reporting to Ironwood about Watt’s escape Ironwood asks of the remaining prisoners conditions. The soldiers report that Jacque has received minor injuries but unfortunately that Robyn is buried under rubble, presumably dead, and that Qrow’s body is nowhere to be seen, assuming he has escaped as well. Ironwood orders the soldiers to take Jacque to med-bay under close watch and for additional troops to search for Watts and Qrow immediately. The soldiers leave the room at once and after waiting a few moments under the rubble, Qrow uses his transformation into human form to push the rubble both off himself and off Robyn to free themselves. After a bit of dialogue between the two they both agree that they must set off to find Ironwood and deal with him personally.
-(Salem’s interrogation and frustration) Within the torture room Oscar nervously awaits for Hazel to return after telling him about Jinn. Oscar and Ozpin have a monologue between each other about Oscar’s decision and are interrupted with Hazel’s return. Unfortunately he is accompanied with Salem entering the room behind him. Oscar nervously wonders if Hazel told Salem the password for the lamp as Salem approaches him. She summons her Grimm arms to grab Oscar and raise him up due to his injuries making it hard for him to stand on his own. Salem begins to monologue about Oscar’s stubbornness to cooperate and Oscar realizes that Hazel hasn’t told her anything about Jinn. Ozpin see’s this as Hazel testing them to prove Salem’s true motives to him. Ozpin realizing the opportunity asks Oscar to switch with him to talk to Salem himself. Oscar agrees and switches with Ozpin, leaving Oz and Salem to talk with each other. Oz and Salem speak with each other until Ozpin mentions something about their kids. Salem becomes enraged and grabs Oz’s face and in her rage let slip about something that Hazel was unaware before. Salem let’s go of Oz and orders Hazel to take more drastic measures to find out what she wants from the two. Hazel grudgingly agrees and as soon as Salem leaves the room Oscar re-emerges and asks Hazel on what he will do now. Hazel pauses and ponders on what he should do, fortunately the two are interrupted by Emerald, unmasking her presence with her semblance, and in her hand is the relic of knowledge. After a brief dialogue between the three they agree to use relic, with Hazel being the one to ask the last question. Emerald presents the relic in front of the three and calls on Jinn’s name. Time and space freezes as jinn appears from the lamp and introduces herself to her summoner. Not wasting anytime Hazel presents himself to jinn and asks the last question....What is Salem’s true motives?
-(Yang, Jaune and Ren infiltrate the Whale) Thanks to ren’s semblance, Yang and the boys safely make it inside the Whale. Nervously navigating themselves through the whale the group becomes distraught on how they could possibly locate Oscar within the large Grimm. Fortunately Ren’s newly evolved semblance allows him to see Oscar’s aura as petals and tells his friends to follow him as he follows the petals as bread crumbs to lead them to Oscar. Yang and Jaune nod their heads and follow Rens lead as they traverse the whale.
-(Winter and the Ace-Ops) Drifting in the sky within their ship, Winter and the team await for the fugitives to report back. Harriet, Elm and Vine bicker with one another about their circumstances of letting the fugitives go, while Winter and Marrow talk with each other about their doubts about the mission and Ironwood orders. Winter then receives a call from Ironwood that the scientists has finished preparing the bomb and requests Winters team to pick it up. After receiving no word from Yang’s group, Winter makes the call and orders the team that they will go ahead with the mission and begin carrying the bomb towards to Whale.
Thats about all i got for this episode and I can’t wait to see you all in the AFTERMATH!!!
Till next time........BUH-BYE!!! XD

General Armitage Hux x Reader
Summary: Kylo Ren and General Hux didn’t like each other. But when Kylo learned something about the General, he didn’t waste much time investigating it.
 Every person who counted in the First Order was invited to a secret planet for a very important meeting.
The Supreme Leader found it to be very important for everyone to meet and to speak on the matter of completely destroying the Republic, since it seemed like that individually all have failed.
So, every commander and general of all the ships were there to attend.
As Snoke’s apprentice, Kylo Ren, and General Hux was put as the two most important people, right after Snoke himself, they had to make sure that everyone who arrived was welcomed.
Kylo was bored and frustrated out of his mind. Hux was just as bored, but he didn’t groan every moment a ship landed. Nevertheless, Kylo sure did. So when the next ship and its occupants arrived, he was all ready for the hundredth welcoming.
“Commander Glung, and General Hvujk. Welcome to Troitih.”
“General Hux. It’s been years since we met, nice to see a familiar face.” explained the commander ignoring Kylo Ren’s welcome.
“The pleasure is mine Commander Glung.”
“How’s your wife lately?” asked the commander. This got Kylo’s attention. He didn’t know Hux was married.
“She’s doing just fine. Thank you.”
“Well, since she is a general like yourself, I assume she will be here too.” said Glung as he walked away.
“You have a wife?” asked Kylo, his helmet deforming his voice.
“I do. The Supreme Leader arranged the marriage about ten years ago.”
“Oh.” of course it was an arranged marriage. “And why isn’t she on the same ship as you?”
“Supreme Leader decided to have her move three years after we got married. She is a commander now. Commander of the ship, Black Swan. There she is.” Hux said pointing at a fully black ship.
Kylo watched a half-droid creature getting off, soon after the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. She was in a very elegant dress, high heels and a long black cape followed her, the only jewellery she wore was a band ring. Kylo watched every move of the woman, he closely examined her face. In his opinion, she was too beautiful to be Hux’s wife. But he came to the conclusion that you must hate your husband.
But oh how wrong he was. Because he saw your eyes lit up with joy when you saw Hux, your lips formed a smile which he envied from the ginger general.
“Commander Hux and General Grieven. Welcome to Troitih.” said Hux after a few seconds of silence from Kylo. The man seemed to be frozen.
“Hello Armi, it’s nice to see you.”
“The pleasure is mine, Y/N.” with that, both you and your general walked away. You didn’t even look at Kylo.
A few hours have passed. All guests have arrived and Kylo was in his room, still shocked from the news he learned earlier that day.
He wanted so bad to find out who you really were. Then he realized that he should ask the only commander who was friendly with Hux besides you, Commander Glung.
It took Kylo two minutes to find him, and the commander was already tipsy when he found him in the common area. Perfect for Kylo’s plan.
Two more drinks later, the commander was speaking freely.
“You seem to know Hux.”
“Yes. The ginger and I were mere kids when we got into this, we grew up on Arkanis. I mean he is quite distinctive with his red hair, you cannot miss him. Then when he got 23, he was forced to marry, Y/N.”
“She grew up with you too?”
“Oh no. Snoke got her from somewhere. Some said he bought her, some said he rescued her. But that’s just gossip. I think he either kidnapped her or something similar. She hates Snoke. She made attempts to kill him even.”
“But why not kill her?”
“Snoke needs her. Apparently, she is force sensitive. And a really strong one at that. A maid once said she saw Y/N stop Snoke’s lightnings. But she wasn’t in full awareness of her powers at that point. So he needed something or someone to keep her under control.”
“Hux? Really? He’s weak.”
“He might be, but it was said that he needed to marry Y/N so she will stop disobeying. Snoke’s plan was to make her fall in love. And after that happened, Snoke had her in a corner.”
Kylo didn’t understand that and the much drunker man answered to his confusion.
“Since she’s in love with Hux, she doesn’t want him to get harmed. So, she’ll do as she’s told if she doesn’t want her husband to get hurt. And it clearly works since she hadn’t been doing any of her shenanigans ever since.”
“Oh.”
Now it was all clear to Kylo. Snoke must have wanted you to be his apprentice but you disobeyed. Even the fact that you were a force user wasn’t really a shock to Kylo he sensed something the moment you got off your ship and why else would the Supreme Leader need you?
In the meantime, you were in your assigned room, waiting for Armitage to arrive. You told him that you needed to see him due to an urgent matter.
And soon, your lover arrived.
“Why did you call for me?” he asked, with his emotionless face.
“I just wanted to see you.” you said as you went to hug him. He hugged back. “I haven’t seen you in a long while, and those hologram calls don’t count.”
“I missed you too.” he finally admitted as he pulled you closer. His voice was so quiet, you barely heard him.
You pulled back from the hug but didn’t waste time and immediately started a make out session with him.
You two were like heated dogs. You shredded the clothes off of him, and he did the same.
You missed him so much, you missed being touched by him, kissed by him and you missed him making love to you.
So, he spent the whole evening with you. But you didn’t sleep much.
Armitage got up first when morning arrived. Collecting his clothes and getting ready for the meetings.
“Darling, you should wake up, the meetings soon start.” he said but you only groaned, turned around and went right back to sleep.
While Armitage got ready he noticed his own clothes in your room. The two of you were given separate ones, but he figured you made them to be moved.
He went along with his day.
Soon arrived to the meeting room, which was rather huge to fit all the attendees in. Armitage saw Kylo Ren walking in.
“General. How was your night with your wife?”
“None of your business.” was all the General’s answer.
Soon the first meeting began. But you were late. The Supreme Leader was in the middle of his big speech about plans when you barged in. Looking flawless, you obviously didn’t care as you sat down. There was awkward silence. Everyone expected Snoke to get angry and punish you, but after a few more minutes passed, he just continued.
Everyone was shocked but no one mentioned it.
The day went on and the meeting came to a break. During the break you and your husband chatted a little while the others either sat in silence or also talked. Kylo seemed to be a very popular but only because you sent everyone away or completely ignored them.
It was also obvious that your General wasn’t a social person. He was only sitting there beside you looking out of his head.
In the meantime you were making plans with your husband. Trying to convince him into taking a day off to visit you or to meet on a planet.
Armitage excused himself and left you at the table. You continued drinking your water while waiting for your husband to arrive back.
While you were waiting for him, you watched as Kylo Ren took the seat right in front of you. You knew that he had the force like you, but you also knew that he was much weaker than you. And you didn’t like speaking to weak people. You felt his intent to talk with you, but you refused. You didn’t like him, you saw him as a danger to your husband and you hated that. You wanted Armitage to be safe at all costs.
Kylo Ren watched as you refused his offer and continued to sit there with a stoic expression. You only smiled when Hux arrived back.
Kylo thought of ways to use that against you, and wondered why others didn’t. But he soon realized.
A man came out of nowhere. You were about to convince Armitage about the little get away that you have planned when the unknown man started talking.
Armitage knew who the man was, at least his name. The man wanted a higher position and talked to Hux to arrange it for him. From what you heard he wanted to work on the First Order’s biggest and strongest ship or the Finalizer. And when Armitage rejected him, he flipped out. Started yelling, calling him names. Everyone was looking at the scene.
Suddenly the man stopped and started chocking. His head became red. The man suffered for a few seconds before Armitage spoke up.
“That’s enough.” he said it with such a calm and collected voice. The man stopped chocking and the droids took him away.
What Kylo found interesting is that you didn’t even move a finger. You didn’t even look at the man, yet still managed to almost kill him.
The meetings went on for the whole week. You loved that you got to spend time with Armitage. The week was too short for you two, but you managed to enjoy being around your husband. Even if you didn’t remember any of Snoke’s speeches or anything he said.
You remember when you went on a long walk in the middle of the evening. Kissed under that beautiful glowing tree. Slow danced next to the small lake and made love every single night.
You couldn’t wait until the next time you will see Armitage.
And just as you arrived, when you were about to leave, your husband and Kylo Ren were there to say goodbye to everyone.
“Commander Hux, and General Grieven, thank you very much for coming. Have a safe flight.” But you didn’t care about Kylo Ren as you pulled Armitage close one last time to leave a kiss on his lips.
“I will be waiting for you.” you said to him as you pulled away and headed back onto your ship.
Armitage could see even with Kylo’s helmet on that he wanted to make a comment, so instead he just left the scene and went back to his room to pack all of his stuff.
While he was in there, all he could think about was you. You were the first person who cared for him. Even if you were forced to marry him, you never blamed him for it. Instead you did the opposite and fell in love with the man.
Armitage couldn’t thank you enough. He fell in love with you shortly after. Your kindness, smile and power amazed him. How can someone be so gorgeous while chocking someone to death at the same time?
This week was something Armitage really cherished and will remember forever.

Request (by @forthesakeofstarwars​ ) : If you’re open for requests, can I send one in for Kylo Ren in which the reader knew him before he left for the dark side? Even though they had feelings for each other, she doesn’t go with him instead, joins the resistance. A while later, when Kylo returns to resistance base, she tries to avoid him as things were left on a bad note and Poe, Finn, and Rey are unable to convince her to talk to him. So when one day, she doesn’t turn up, they agree to help Kylo find her and when they find her, they catch her right as she was about leave on her ship. When she realizes she was caught, she makes eye contact with Kylo and he, along with the rest, watched through her window as she mouths f**** right before she climbs down and gives in to talk to him. 😂
Summary : Just look at the request, I couldn’t summarize it better than that :)
Warnings : Minor cursing, female and jedi reader, use of Y/N a little bit, not proofread
Notes : I woke up and went to check all my socials and noticed someone sent in a request, and it had to be sent in two parts! I hope I did this wonderful idea justice! 
“Y/N! Get out here!” Poe yelled, causing you to set your book down beside you on bed. 
“Why?!” You yelled back, swinging your legs off the side of your bed. 
“Just come here!” Poe yelled again. You rolled your eyes and got up and out of your room, walking to the hangar. Rey went on mission to do some force stuff. You offered to go with her but she wanted to do it alone. 
You saw the Falcon and went towards it since you saw Poe, Rey and Finn there. But half way there, you made eye contact with the last person you wanted to make eye contact with. Kylo Ren. Or Ben Solo now. He smiled, the same smile that you fell in love with. He started to walk towards you but you turned around and went straight for your room, locking the door behind you. Sure it was a bit dramatic but you did not want to see Ben.
Both of you trained at Luke’s temple and eventually, you fell in love. You never knew if he liked you back since he betrayed Luke and yourself. He thought he killed you, but you faked it just to get away. After that, Luke sent you away to go into hiding from Ben, or Kylo. You joined the resistance only to find out Ben was on the opposite end of the war. Since you fought along side Rey, Finn and Poe, you came face to face with him a few times. You refused to believe that Ben was still there, you didn’t want him to be. You hated him for what he did to you, to his own family at that. 
---------------------------------------------------------
Since he arrived, Ben received the cold shoulder from you. Even if you were hanging out with Poe, Finn and Rey, you would only talk to the three and explicitly ignored Ben. If he even looked at you, you made sure not to look back at him. 
“Y/N, he isn’t Kylo Ren anymore. Everyone is still accepting him but you just won’t even start to accept him! He really wants to talk to you, can you please try to talk to him?” Finn asked you. Your conversation went from old times on the base during the war to Ben. It was just you, Finn and Poe next to your ship.
“I don’t care, I hate him for what he did to me.” You replied, rolling your eyes.
“Come on, not even one conversation?” Poe added.
“Nope. If he really wanted to talk to me, he wouldn’t have turned to the dark side.” You said, walking away and ending the conversation.
---------------------------------------------------------
“Hey Rey, what’s up?” You greeted your friend at your door.
“Listen, I wanted to talk to you about Ben. He’s been struggling a lot since he returned, especially since you won’t talk to him. Can you just ask him how his day is going or something?” Rey asked, begged maybe.
“No. Finn and Poe asked me the same thing. I don’t care what he wants or how he feels. Ben should’ve thought about others when he turned to the dark side. Sure, that may sound selfish but he sure as hell hurt me more then I am to him.” You answered, slamming the door in her face when you were done.
You groaned and went over to your small desk in your quarters, pulling out a bag. You started to put in items like books, data pads and other things like that. Then your lightsaber that you hadn’t touched since the end of the war. You examined the shiny hilt then stuffed it in your bag. You closed the bag and placed your cloak over it to hide it. 
Through out the next day, you snuck some supplies onto your ship little by little. You acted normally, being friendly to Poe, Finn and Rey and ignoring Ben. No one suspected anything. You waited until dusk to sneak out of your room with your cloak on and bag in hand. You hastily made your way to your ship and were about to start to take off when you looked out the window to see your three friends and Ben approaching the ship. They stopped a few feet away and you made eye contact with Ben. After a few moments, you rolled your eyes and mouthed f*ck. You climbed out and were met with some upset people.
“You think we didn’t notice you sneaking supplies on to your ship?” Poe asked, putting his hands on his hips. You stayed silent.
“Why are you leaving?” Rey asked.
“Because...”
“Because?” Finn prompted.
“Because I didn’t want to interact with Ben...” You answered quietly. Rey, Finn, Poe and Ben looked between each other then Rey, Finn and Poe left you and Ben alone.
“Hey-”
“No. Just stop.”
“Why are you ignoring me? I’m trying to restore our friendship and you don’t want that?”
“Ben, you betrayed me. It broke my heart, I had feelings for you and I loved you but you left. We fought against each other for years and you think I’ll let you just come back and steal my heart again? No. I’m done.” You answered, walking away. Ben stopped you by grabbing your wrist.
“I love you, I loved you when we were padawans and still do. I wanted you to come with me to the dark side but I knew you wouldn’t without force. I thought I killed you and that ate at me for years until I saw you on Starkiller base. When Rey brought me back from the world between worlds, all I wanted was to see you again and hug you and say I’m sorry. I know what I did was messed up, and I know I hurt you, but I want to fix that. If you don’t want a relationship or even a friendship, I’ll understand. I just....I just want you to talk to me.”
You were taken back from Ben’s confession. You suspected he liked you all those years ago but you weren’t really sure. Ben sighed from your long silence, letting your wrist go. “I’ll leave you be, goodnight.”
“You think you can just confess that to me and walk away? Ben, all I want is to have a relationship with you, hell, I want to marry you and have kids with you. I was just stupid and angry at you for leaving that I wanted you to feel that same pain as me. I’m sorry for ignoring you.” You said.  
Ben smiled and this time you smile back. You pulled him into a tight hug, which he happily returned. After a few moments, you pulled away but stayed in each other’s arms. Ben, hesitantly and gently, pressed his lips against yours. You kissed back immediately. After a few seconds, the two of you pulled away. “You don’t know how long I wanted to do that.” Ben said quietly.
You let out a quiet laugh and took his hand in yours, starting to walk to your quarters where you two would catch up and talk the night away.

RWBY vs Comic
Alright, I said I was gonna do this back when the comic first started getting published but I got so frustrated reading it that I couldn’t actually keep up with it enough go through with it. I think I stopped around issue 4 because that was when I just got angry and threw my comic back into the plastic. I figure now’s as good a time as any since I’m actually rereading it now. My whole issue with the RWBY DC comics is that they’re super canon divergent but somehow still canon material. It’s so frustrating that this is the case because we’re supposed to take into account things that happen in the comic as gospel- things like Adam revealing he’d always been genocidal, Bumbleby’s bottlecap, Weiss’ zoo animal arc, etc, but a lot of these different story arcs don’t make sense in our current canon. So I’m gonna talk about them because why not.
 Issue #1:
The first issue actually isn’t that bad- mostly because it’s just an intro to the series- but there are still some huge inconsistencies between the comic and official canon.
Tumblr media
These two panels are a fucking mess.
1) Ruby was passed out when she was delivered to Patch by Qrow. She’d just used her Silver Eyed Warrior powers for the first time, hurt Cinder, frozen the dragon, and passed out. We were literally forced to listen as Qrow carried Ruby out of the rubble and back home, because she was unconscious. But the comic has her just arriving back home all on her own. “I came back to my dad’s house.” No you didn’t, you literally woke up in your bed after what must’ve been days of being unconscious.
2) We know Blake didn’t get to Menagerie on a little wooden boat. We all watched the episode. It was a decent sized ship with multiple crew members, dozens of passengers, and literal armaments designed to destroy Grimm. Sun can’t hide in a robe for 3+ days on this boat. This boat wouldn’t have survived a Grimm attack in the first place. Idk why they decided to draw this boat instead of just drawing the Pride the way it was designed in the first place, but whatever I guess.
Tumblr media
RNJR didn’t tell Taiyang they were leaving. Ruby and her team just left. There was a whole scene dedicated to showing the shock and horror on Tai’s face as he saw Ruby’s letter and ran out of the house hoping to catch up to his daughter before she left. Also not as important but still relevant, RNJR left during winter. There was snow on the ground. I don’t see no snow in this panel- that tree looks real green. That last issue is mostly a nitpick- who cares what season they left in tbh. But the fact that they just wrote this panel into the comic despite the fact canon shows Taiyang had no idea of Ruby’s departure- and the fact that Ruby’s departure is actually really important to a bunch of later scenes in this show is really fucking weird.
Issue #2:
Tumblr media
I know we know next to nothing about Raven Branwen, but holy fucking shit do I wanna believe this is ridiculously out of character for her. You’re telling me that Raven actually did come visit Yang and Tai and Ruby, but the one time she ever made her presence known to any of them was to berate and terrify Ruby the one time she’d learned anything about Summer?! Like BRO. This is so fucked up! This is too fucked up! This is straight early 90′s level villainy right here. What was even the point behind this?! This scene tells us that she felt so negatively about Summer Rose that she was willing to break her silent cover just to disillusion Ruby for no other reason than to tell her she was weak. Which makes no fucking sense because when we finally meet her during season 5 Raven has nothing bad to say about Summer at all! What did Qrow say to her after they spoke? “Hey sis why the fuck are you flying around your ex’s home scaring his daughter who just lost her mother? You realize you’re talking shit about the woman who raised your child too right?” Like, this is so wildly terrible, that if we’re meant to take this into account, I don’t see how anyone who reads these comics could say anything positive about Raven ever again. This is strike one, two and three for her entire characterization.
Issue #4:
Tumblr media
I’ve said it already but fuck this boat.
Tumblr media
Not so much an issue with the comic as it is with RoosterTeeth’s sometimes sloppy storytelling, but we really need an exact age on Adam. Is this man a pedophile? We know Blake is about twelve here, meanwhile- besides looking maybe a little scrawnier- Adam looks the same as he did during the show. How old is this kid right here? Fifteen? Seventeen? Was he 20 during the events of volume 1? Was he 25? I really dislike this specific problem RT has created because at no point during canon were we led to believe that Adam was significantly older than Blake or our other characters, but here in the comic we’re getting huge pedo vibes. Idk if this was RoosterTeeth retroactively trying to throw Adam’s character even further into question but... Idk man, RT y’all need to hurry up and carbon date this kid because I’m really not liking this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m not gonna harp on the whole “Adam as a revolutionary vs Adam as a genocidal maniac” issue again. Most of y’all already know where I stand on this and have either made up your minds that either, yes, Adam’s sudden change towards being genocidal after being forcibly conscripted by Cinder doesn’t make much sense, or, no, Adam’s behavior is entirely in line with what little we’d seen of him up to that point in the story. I’m not trying to change anyone’s opinions on this issue, I’ve got about a dozen other posts for that. My issue with these panels specifically is that this is the moment Blake discovers Adam is genocidal. This is the moment Blake realizes that Adam never wanted peace, never wanted coexistence, never wanted what the White Fang actually wanted in the first place. He wanted Faunus supremacy- a goal entirely removed from the White Fang’s goal of equality between Faunus and humans. This is the moment Blake realizes that his ideology is so far from what it is she herself wants. If this is correct, why does Blake never mention this AT ALL when she’s talking about Adam. When the conversation comes up during season 3, she specifically states that Adam’s change was gradual. Not that he’d been hiding who he really was from her but that he’d become a completely different person from the man she’d originally known. I recognize that a lot of people say that this could be explained away as evidence of Blake’s abuse- oftentimes abusers don’t even realize just how monstrous their abusers are, even after they’ve escaped from said abuse. But this is just such a monumentally larger issue than manipulation and abuse. Adam is outright saying that he wants genocide! He’s not trying to hide it, he’s not trying to lie, he’s not trying to manipulate her! He’s telling her explicitly that he wishes he could kill as many humans as possible. But during the Black Trailer she’s still asking Adam about the crew members as if they hadn’t had this conversation hours ago! During season 2 she’s drawing him in her notebook as if she misses him! During season 3 she’s explaining that he’s simply misguided! This is apologia of the umpteenth level that is absolutely inexcusable. If I’m honestly supposed to be made to believe that Blake knew Adam was genocidal from before the events of the Black trailer and season 1 but still had feelings for him... I’m sorry but I’ve lost any and all respect for her entire character. You can’t have feelings for someone who’s genocidal- who you know is genocidal- and expect sympathy. No amount of abuse would forgive someone for having feelings for Hitler.
Tumblr media
I recognize the comics aren’t supposed to be a shot for shot recreation of the show, but what the fuck is this panel? The frame of Adam dismembering Yang was such a good, amazing, impactful frame. The black and red framing, the yellow of Yang’s hair and weapons, the red of Adam’s sword. Why would you not even try to recreate that?
Tumblr media
Leaving nitpicks for the end, really wish they hadn’t used “sunflower” here. That’s Yang/Ren. But again, the comic is made by people who aren’t in the fndm and don’t interact with the RWBY community at large in the first place, so of course they wouldn’t know.
Issue #5:
Tumblr media
Why does Blake seem so ooc here. Like, the fact that she’s trying to make Weiss feel guilty for “cheating” in a “win by any means necessary” free for all match is really??? Weird??? When we know Blake isn’t above using underhanded tricks herself considering what she did to Reese during the tournament and her Semblance in general??? But whatever, that’s mostly a nitpick as well.
Issue #7:
Tumblr media
My issue with this story is that it ends with Yang like, wistfully thinking of spending more time with Blake. But this is before she even put the prosthetic on. This is before she even got to talk with Weiss after meeting up with Raven. This is so early on in her healing process that I find it extremely difficult to believe that Yang is fondly remembering any time she spent with Blake. When Ruby talks to her during 3.12, she was angry that Blake had left her! Abandoned her! And then in the conversation she has with Weiss that happens after this event in the comic she’s still frustrated with Blake for leaving. So like... did she suddenly forgive Blake just a few weeks into her recovery and then relapse back into feeling like she’d abandoned her? Wtf is this?
Issue #9:
Tumblr media
I know she’s obviously supposed to be drunk here, and we barely got to know her during the short scenes she had, but like... she never struck me as this kind of person. To literally forget how old her daughter is? Like...???? The same woman who was so perceptive she was able to recognize that Whitley was acting out because he’d felt lonely and abandoned by his sisters? Doesn’t know how old one of her children is? This is silly.
Tumblr media
This isn’t the same woman we met during season 7. This isn’t the same quick witted woman who immediately directed Weiss to the cameras she’d hidden around the house when it was time to spring the trap on Jacques. This isn’t the same woman who was so honest when she admitted to her own faults just a few short months after this scene supposedly took place. You could argue that the events of this comic are what led Willow to become the person we meet later on, but like... That’s an absolutely ridiculous amount of offscreen growth you’re expecting me to just assume has happened. These aren’t the same people. This is ridiculous.
Issue #12:
Tumblr media
This seems so ooc for Sun. Why is he literally begging her to run away and not face a problem when his entire relationship with Blake up to and past this point is him teaching Blake to love herself enough to face her problems head-on in the first place? This is so weird and gross imo because it just feels like they’re warping Sun’s character to make it look like Yang is the only good influence in her life when that’s simply not the case. Every conversation Sun has with Blake from season 1 to season 6 is him telling her that she deserves happiness, love, and to forgive herself. There are multiple songs about this aspect of their relationship! Sun has helped Blake grow just as much as Yang has. Why is Sun taking this approach to manipulate Blake into staying silent about something that’s bothering her? On top of that, Sun’s never been the brightest banana of the bunch anyway, why the FUCK is he smart enough here to recognize that if Blake tells the truth and makes those people feel bad, that they’d draw more Grimm? He’s never been this intuitive before. It really feels like they made him smarter than he normally is just to make him scummier than he’s ever been so that we could feel that Blake’s relationship with Sun is less than her relationship with Yang. Awful writing and characterization from the RWBY DC team here
Issue #13:
Tumblr media
This is so wrong and despicable and manipulative and terrible. Again, this isn’t the same woman we met in the show. 
Tumblr media
Willow never made excuses for herself or her actions like this. Not once during the entire time she was on screen did she do anything like this. She knew she wasn’t a great mother and she took full responsibility for her actions- and inaction- I don’t know WHY she’s trying to excuse herself here. This is more Cruella De Ville than it is Willow Schnee.
Tumblr media
I’m not gonna explain how lumping this “prized menagerie” story with “Faunus slave labor” story together is godawful but just recognize that it’s Black History Month and this plot point they decided to write in is not MLK approved.
Anyway, that’s the whole RWBY DC run. All in all it wasn’t the worst adaptation of an established series, but goddamn. I’d rank this up there with Eragon or Percy Jackson or the end of the Soul Eater anime or something. This is such a slap in the face by people who obviously only ever skimmed through the show for the explicit purpose of writing this series that I’ve read fancomics and fanfiction that handle canon better than this. It’s really frustrating too because this comic run is like, beloved by certain people in the fndm who are only in this for the ships, and people who refuse to see anything wrong with this series ever. The healthy servings of Bumbleby and crumbs of Monochrome and White Rose are apparently enough to make people go “fuck all the inconsistencies, this comic is great.” Cannot express how much these people make me wanna slam my head into a wall. 
I did this just to highlight all the issues I have with the run, but I’m sure other people have other issues with this comic than I do. Have fun in the comments I guess.

TROS fix-it: Page 17
[...] The Falcon flew in a great arc before hovering closely above the splitting ground. Ben had already recognised the Millennium Falcon by her iconic sound when she had still been out of sight. He sighed. Of course, he thought. Of course it had to be her. 
“I have a bad feeling about this,” Ben mumbled. 
He didn’t know who the pilot was, but one thing was sure. Wookiees were the most loyal creatures Ben has ever met. If the Falcon was around Chewie wouldn’t be far-off. It was best not to imagine the reaction Chewie would have at the sight of him. Rey didn’t comment because she was concentrating on bringing him safely onboard without causing too much trouble, but she sensed his fear through their bond. Still, Ben never thought he would ever be happier to see his father’s ship coming to the rescue.
~~~
“What’s going on, Lando?” Wedge Antilles entered the cockpit. He had been in the crew quarters and noticed the change of course.
“The kids started a rescue mission,” Lando explained.
“The boy didn’t seem to be very happy about it.”
“Well,” Lando exhaled, “we might have an unexpected guest.” He couldn’t keep his eyes off Ben and Rey since the moment they have spotted them. They were out of view now, probably boarding the ship – or at least trying to while bargaining with Finn. Lando had talked to Maz about Ben when Leia had died. He had been unable to believe her that Ben would eventually come back, that the sides would turn. But in the matter of fact, it turned out that Maz was right. This wasn’t Kylo Ren surrendering. It was Ben coming home. Lando had never thought much of the Force, but, somehow, Leia has done it. She has shown Ben where he belonged to, in a way Lando couldn’t explain, not even to himself.
Chewie on the other hand hasn’t shown any reaction, yet, pretending to be busy holding the Falcon as stable as possible for boarding. The mind of a Wookiee could be unpredictable and hard to read, but Lando knew this one too well.
“You know who that is, buddy?” he approached him. Chewie muttered. He was both angry and sad. When Ben had killed Han on Starkiller Base Chewie had immediately aimed for Ben’s heart, blinded by rage, wanting to take revenge. He had been enraged and anguished. But before pulling the trigger he had realised that he couldn’t do it. Blasting Ben into his left side instead had already caused Chewie so much pain. He had felt guilty but also relieved for letting him live. When Ben had offered him his lightsabre to avenge Han, while imprisoned on the Star Destroyer, Chewie had not dared to. If he had done it, he would have never forgiven himself for killing the toddler he once used to cuddle. When Ben was little Chewie had heard Han and Leia talking about the conflict inside of Ben. He never understood why Ben turned away from his family. But now, seeing him so peaceful with Rey, he hoped that this conflict was finally settling. Chewie had known Rey long enough for being able to trust her.
After a while he finally looked at Lando and roared. Lando’s only answer to that was, “I hope so, too.” [...]
