#and comes up with a dumb pun in every situation
Text
A mage Whumpee who’s still learning to control their magic powers and not overexert themselves, but one day they get cocky while trying to prove themselves for some really stupid reason and pass out as a consequence, much to the concern of caretaker who knows like nothing about magic and it’s side effects
Caretaker rushing to Whumpee’s side, praying that they’re not dead, and feeling so relieved when they feel Whumpee’s pulse still going - Weak, but still going.
They gently prop them up on their lap when they notice Whumpee slowly regaining consciousness, almost crying in relief when Whumpee’s eyes flutter open.
“Whumpee? Whumpee, hey, can you hear me? What the hell was that?”
And Whumpee, still dazed and not fully there, focuses on Caretaker for a moment, before pulling the corner of their mouth up into a half grin.
“Guess you could say that was a...dizzy spell,” before closing their eyes again from exhaustion.
How Caretaker reacts is up to you.

if it's ok can you do both the bad sanses and star sanses and epic and cross with an S/O who is a musician. Like they can sing and play guitar, keyboard, ect and performs at clubs
This was a little difficult (since there's so many characters), but it was fun. ^^ (I also didn't do Epic and Cross, since it was too much for me, sorry for that. Maybe I'll do them in a different post, if you still want them?)
Masterlist
SANS AUS X MUSICIAN READER
(Nightmare, Killer, Dust, Horror, Error, Dream, Swap, Ink)
Nightmare:
Nightmare's gonna be so surprised by your skills when it comes to playing so many instruments. He can actually play on a piano, so he will want to play together with you at some point, after he gets more comfortable around you.
He definitely doesn't think you'll be of good use when it comes to combat, but... He WILL want to stick around while you're playing any instrument, all while doing his paperwork.
Nightmare definitely appreciates when a great talent is put to a good use, so he'll arrange a night that happens once every week, where everyone in the castle relaxes, while attending to your little show.
Damn, you feel like quite a celebrity in Nightmare's castle.
Anyways, Nightmare respects you for having such talent, but probably won't respect you outside of that. He's just like that. 😐
It's like he has two different personalities that are switching depending on the situation. If it's a situation where you're performing: "I must say, Y/n, that was an exquisite performance that you played there. I can't wait to listen to it again, when we'll have the chance." But if it's in battle... "YOU DUMB FUCKING BITCH, STOP STANDING THERE BEING SO USELESS!!!" Then you two argue. 💀
He will soften up to you when the time comes, but you know... His shell is tough to crack.
Killer:
BRO'S LIKE -> :O
He gets so hyper after knowing that you can play so many instruments. He's gonna tell you every flirting pun revolving around music known to man. He literally won't stop coming up with new puns, it's a special skill of his at this point..
He literally won't leave you alone while you're preparing to train playing on another instrument. He's such a menace... he just wants to bother you 😂
Doesn't like how Nightmare treats you just because you're "useless" in combat. So he'll try to help you out in that department. He'll tell you some shit like "you could really rip someone's head off with this guitar" 💀 it's the thought that counts.
Wrote a music sheet for you once. It was just scribbles, that he thought you would understand 💀 but after you'd told him that no, you do not understand, he would try to recreate the sounds he meant for you to play, with his own voice...
"Ok, it goes like this! Meew mew pew bom boom! Got it?" You do not understand. 💀
Dust:
You'd think that being the smartest, he'd know a thing or two about musical instruments, but the truth is...he knows NOTHING about that. So having someone so skilled and knowledgeable like you, got him super excited!
He loves learning about new things, so prepare to be bombarded with lots of questions.
After you answer any of his questions and after a countless times of him watching/listening you play... He official wants to learn to play on an instrument! I mean, he once knew how to play the trombone! But it was long since those days, and he completely forgot everything about it, and it would be nice to learn how to play on a different instrument. :)
He's so supportive and tentative to you 😭 he's the first to come to your rescue whenever you're having a tough time in a battle!
Horror:
He doesn't think much of it. Not pretty big when it comes to playing an instrument, but it is nice to listen to you while he's drifting off to sleep.
He doesn't really care for it, hence -> he won't know anything about it. But he will support you. (Depending on what relationship you two have)
Just like the others, he also attends the times you play for the others, but only really focus on you. Not much on your skill.
He just likes you for you, no special skill is going to change that.
Horror is pretty much like your personal guardian when it comes to battles. As stated all the other times, your skill isn't really fit for battlefield, unless......
Horror actually helps you out a lot in this field. He gives you advice on how to use your skills in battle. And they're actually really good! (Unlike Killer's 💀)
He doesn't even know that the things he's saying are actually very helpful 💀
He just says what sounds right for him.
Lmao, bro absentmindedly helps you out the most of the bunch, which is actually really funny.
Error:
Also not big on instruments, but he sees you as an inspiration. Knowing how to play so many instruments is pretty impressive. And you do it flawlessly too!
He also, like the others attends your little "shows".
No matter what you play, he WILL fall asleep. It's not because it's boring, but your music is just calming to him.
You could be playing like a rock music, and he WILL STILL fall asleep. 💀
It's pretty much just impressive from his side at this point.
He thinks that you're actually pretty good in battle. Doesn't know what the other's are on about.
He would suspect you would be dead in seconds, but you actually survive them! Sure, not without injuries, but still. You can defend yourself somehow.
Dream:
Loves to hear you play the more calming instruments, rather than the loud ones. (Rock, Metal, etc. just won't do for him 😭)
He's seriously so proud of you!
As stated before, he doesn't like it when you're playing something loud. It hurts his nonexistent ears 💀🙏🏻
Almost burned your electric guitar one day... Says that it was an accident. (It wasn't.) Look, it was just in the way, and he wasn't looking! (It was annoying him, so he almost committed murder against your guitar 💀)
He hates loud instruments partly because he's supposed to be the protector of hopes and dreams, but it's mostly because it reminds him of his brother... :(
Always rushes to your rescue when in battle. Actually, doesn't even let you fight in the battles.
He just doesn't want to see you harmed in any way. Can't let his little muse die.
Ink:
Unlike Dream, Ink LOVES the loud instruments. (He also thinks you look attractive when playing them, but that's besides the point)
He's constantly encouraging you to play them, which irks Dream in return.
He thinks you're matching with the both of you having "artistic" hobbies. (He's actually so cute while saying that, like it's his best accomplishment)
If he could, he would sell his BRUSH just to hear you sing (not broomie 😭)
Comes to your shows whenever he remembers. His memory isn't that great, as we know.... So he'll most likely forget, and then remember when it's too late. He feels so bad that you actually can't help but feel sad for him.
He's actually on his knees, begging you for forgiveness. (You're not actually mad at him) He's such a sub while doing this that it's crazy 💀
Gets annoyed by your lack of fighting skills. Can't help but roll his eyes. (He'll still help you, because he likes you. But he WILL complain)
Just give him new pencils after, and he'll stop with the complaints.
Swap:
He's at awe at your skills. You inspire him to start learning himself! Of course he tries to learn by himself at first, due to not wanting to bother you. But after he figures out he can't learn by himself, he goes to you for help.
He's a really fast learner, so he gets the hang of it almost immediately. Which you appreciate. ^^
He also comes to listen to you performing! He swore to you that he'd come at every show. And he never broke it either!
After he gets better at his selective instrument and after he'll get more confident, he'll want to join you to perform with you! (Of course, if it's ok with you)
I swear, he's so supportive.
Doesn't care about your lack of fighting skills. It just gives him an excuse to protect you to be honest.
He seriously loves to be your knight in shining armor, definitely has this little fantasy that you're a princess/prince and he's the knight saving you from the HORRIBLE monster. (Nightmare)

Hello~
I was hoping you could write the boys with a gn s/o that is a firebender/can control fire??
In headcanon form pls!!
Hello, dear anon. Ofc, sorry if it's a bit short, hope you like it
The guys with a firebender s/o
▉ ▉ Raphael ▉ ▉ ● Raph is very impressed with your ability
● "So you have mystic powers too?" Wow
● Probably asks you to train with him, he gotta see upclose how it works in combat, and he's always up for a challenge!
● If you can control the color of the flame (with heat or as an additional ability) and whatnot, he'd secretly enjoy and be proud that you make your flames redder because/for him. You got to admit that red is a great colour!
● If you don't have a catch phrase, he probably insists that 1) Yes, of course it's important and necessary 2) He's more than happy to help you come up with it
● But of course it's gotta do with fire
● Maybe "Get burned!" or "Feel the heat!" ? Eh, it's a work in progress
▲▲ Leonardo ▲▲ ● Probably the most mesmerized by it, he is so curious too
● "Can you cover your whole arm? How come it doesn't burn your clothes? Do you feel hot when you do it or?-"
● You'd think Donnie would be the one with the most questions but Leo, I think, would go on and on with it… Hopefully you're not overwhelmed
● You have fun trying to see if your fire can go through his portals, with and without you, it's great if you plan on using it in a fight later on
● And of course that Leo makes the most out of the situation… by making the most puns about fire he can when you're around
● "Wow, babe, you're so hot, I think you're on fire" "Leo…" "Okay, okay, no need for the burning gaze, you can just tell me that my comedy just doesn't ignite anything for you" "…"
● Also, you can bet that he'd ask you to use it for mundane, dumb things. Like heating up coffee or for him to warmth up his hands, as long as it doesn't get on your nerves, it's all good
▌▌Donatello ▌▌ ● Like Leo, he has a lot of questions, but from a more sciency angle, he wants to know more about how it works exactly
● "Do you activate it at will? Can it happen without thinking? Is it a chemical reaction that you ignite somehow?"
● Truth is… you don't have all the answers. But, you allow him to try and figure it out… if he can, that is
● He is more than happy to provide you with tech to enhance your powers, or just tech that is helpful for you, perhaps more on the defensive side.
● And he adds an extinguisher feature… just in case. You never know
● If your powers can come up without intent, and they happen to give you a hard time sometimes, he also would come up with something to prevent that or contain it better. Let's say that it can be a really useful gift when in public
⬤⬤ Mikey ⬤⬤ ● Fire twins!!
● He finds it very very cool, specially because you share the element
● Can you imagine how good you are as a fighting duo? Oh mi gosh…
● What if he was able to make some fire, and basically pass it to you like a basketball for you to take and bash a baddie with? It must be really fun, you two would look flowy and dynamic!
● I like to think that Mikey is into every kind of art, so writing is one, of course
● He'd write poetry after being inspired by seeing you using your fire, how graceful it can look, like a dance. He likes to watch you and focus on the way the flames move alongside you and the streaks of light they make in darker spaces
● Also makes you both matching fire themed jackets or accessories to wear together. Maybe he adds a flame sticker on his plastron to represent you too

books i read this month !
Everything I Need I Get from You: How Fangirls Created the Internet as We Know It by Kaitlyn Tiffany it was fine! i think she doesn't fully flesh out her greater points and instead allocates that space to bonkers one direction fandom anecdotes, which is okay, i like reading them. was DELIGHTED she cited barbara ehrenriech, who it turns out has written about beatlemania.
Dawn & Adulthood Rites by Octavia Butler woman wakes up in a room. there is an alien there. situation develops. unpredictable worldbuilding, deeply respect ms. butler's ability to Get Weird With It, do think i wish this one was just a smidge less heterosexual, thematically. it's already not that heterosexual (there is an alien there). still haven't read the third one!
The Murders of Molly Southbourne and sequels (novellas) by Tade Thompson becca posted about this i believe. every time molly southbourne bleeds, a molly springs up from her blood and tries to kill her. grimy! compelling! does get a little overexplained at the end. also it's been said but it's such a plot hole that her parents didn't have a contingency plan for her starting her period
Ducks by Kate Beaton graphic novel memoir of her time in the albertan oil sands working to pay off her student loans. hhhhhhholy shit. my dumb ass read all these reviews about how it "captures pervasive misogyny" and still went in like :) i liked the excerpts with animols :). really stunningly empathetic and evenhanded. that misogyny sure can viscerally haunt !
Women's Work: The First 20,000 Years: Women, Cloth, and Society in Early Times by Elizabeth Wayland Barber kinda skimmed through the last third of this because it was overdue & read the rest of it in nov-dec but i liked it a lot! especially her bits about reconstructing textile history from things that don't rot as easily, like loom weights or language. also the bits where neolithic people made fancy patterned cloth just because they wanted it to be nice
Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo gotta get a guy out of hell. horny!!!! (demon pun)
Readme.txt by Chelsea Manning memoir of growing up, being very online, joining the army, leaking classified data, receiving the full (& at the time unprecedented for whistleblowers) force of hatred of the us federal govt. oh jeez. oh boy. i was on a reading about plane crashes kick last week and this kind of hit as a similar exhaustively detailed negative extreme of human experience. it's also inescapably a period piece of the back half of the 2000s, and as someone who was a stupid teenager in the back half of the 2000s, it's good(?) to come back to it as history? glad she's OUT
also read half of The High Sierra: A Love Story by Kim Stanley Robinson and now i want to be in the sierras.... but it is under so much snow right now....... Alas!

I sent a piss play ask to @chai-isms a while ago (I think tumblr may have ate it) but I’m desperate to talk about it and another idea I have so I’m throwing it your way in case you want it!
Idea 1) having Johnny locked up in a cock cage with a urethral plug/sounder in it because you own his silly little puppy cock, it’s all yours which means you’re in (or urine hahaha puns) charge of when or if he pisses. But one deployment you send him out with it still on, and force him to ask either either one of his superior officers, Ghost or Price, to be the one to unlock him so he can piss. Can you imagine? Your little puppy, so tough and strong, part of the task force that makes nightmares shudder, and he has to give his superior officer a key, tell them what it is for, and then every time he wants to pee, he has to beg them to let him. I personally like Price for this, because it would humiliate him so much more that his Captain is the one unlocking his dick for him, the captain he looks up to the most, that he is desperate to gain approval from. Everytime he needs to piss, he’s brought to subspace, wishing you were here so you could unlock him and hold his cock when he pisses (because he’s not allowed to touch his puppy cock at all without you around) and seeing the glint of the key on Price’s body makes it even worse because now his big important Captain knows that Soap is a little puppy who isn’t even smart enough to decide when to piss on his own anymore. It’s delicious and he comes back to you and immediately is so deep in subspace that piss is trying to leak out around the sounder.
2) Johnny in puppy space is desperate for you to piss on him. You’ve done scenes before where you make him cum so many times that he ends up pissing himself (a favorite of both of you) and you get to talk down to him about being a dumb puppy trying to mark his territory, mark his mate, and now all he wants is for you to do the same. Mark him with your piss, claim him as your own. Sit on his face and piss and he’ll cum untouched if he’s in puppy space
i think @chai-isms would definitely vibe with these ideas wayyy more than i do but these are still so good and definitely itch a part of my brain! i'm just not that dominant so i could never really picture myself putting a cock cage on soap but the mental image of him being all embarrassed approaching price is so hot.
and the thought of him cumming so hard he pisses is so good and delicious. like losing control of his bladder because he's such a stupid fucking puppy that can only think with his dumb dick? so good! and tbh i'd be a bad owner because he would ask me to pee on him and i'd get all embarrassed and flustered lol, absolutely no control of the situation. but the thought of you marking your territory on him and him just there taking it is just. something else man.

Some Yugioh Dub Names I Actually Like
Because sometimes these dubs can do things right. The name changes I’m gonna mention here are all either justified changes or just fitting names in general, to the point where I actually use a few of these over the Japanese names.
Lua and Luca to Leo and Luna
Tumblr media
Those sub names are fucking confusing, have a bajilion different spellings and are easy to mix up. “Leo” and “Luna” still definitely give off a twin name vibe while not being too similar and are also way easier to use. Also, “Leo” means lion and lions are prideful and loud and is a fire sign, associating it with the sun. “Luna” means moon and the moon is quiet and reflective and is often outshined by the sun. Their dub names reflect their characters perfectly.
Obomi to Lillybot
Tumblr media
“Lillybot.” How can you hear that name and not melt a little? It’s so cute. And definitely something a 13 year old would come up with when using the word “litterbot” as a base.
“Other Yugi” to Yami Yugi
Tumblr media
I didn’t watch this one in sub but from the clips I’ve seen, the implication really does seem to be that Yugi has had this other spirit inside him for who knows how long that all his friends know and not one of them though to come up with a way to differentiate them outside of calling him the “other Yugi.” The nickname Yami is cute, even if it wasn’t used after like… season 3? XD Other than that though, I like it.
Haruto Tenjo to Hart Tenjo
Tumblr media
“Hart” is a cute name, dammit. Also, he is Kaito’s entire motivation in part 1, or, in other words, his “heart.” I don’t know if that was intentional or if I’m reaching but it’s cute.
Revolver to Varis
Tumblr media
Yeah… I gotta admit I do kinda like this name, not to the point where I use it over his original name, he’ll always be Revolver to me, but I do think it’s admirable how, when they were likely required to change his name since a revolver is a gun and American censorship is… the way it is, they just changed his name to a lesser known but BIGGER gun. That is hilarious, and pretty much exactly what I’d do in that situation. “Oh, the gun boy with bullet earrings and a gun based deck can’t be named after a gun?! Well fuck you too then. Lemme just Google some gun names real quick.” I have no idea if that’s what happened, but it’s what I like to imagine.
Darkness to Nightshroud
Tumblr media
Okay, credit where credit is due to this dub I hate with a passion: Nightshroud is a pretty badass name. I still enjoy the simplicity of the name “Darkness” but I get how it could be confusing in a dub and it’s not like any of the symbolism behind the name is lost, his whole thing is still the power of darkness, he just has a cooler name.
Tokunosuke Omoteura to Flip Turner
Tumblr media
I can’t even spell Flip’s sub name without Googling it. I watched Zexal for the first time in sub and prefer it that way but I still call him Flip because it’s way easier to type and just far more memorable, especially since he’s the first character I can remember who used a flip deck. Yeah, it’s a silly pun but he’s a silly character so I don’t mind it.
Ute, Hyugo, and Joeri to Yuto, Yugo, and Yuri
Tumblr media
I have no idea if this was just a weird romanization of their names or what but every last one of these names have the same first sound yet were initially spelled completely different in the Japanese episodes (and I don’t just mean the subtitling, I mean the footage of the episode itself before it was touched by the subtitles). Giving them all the “Yu” prefix groups them with Yuya which ties them together in a smart way considering the fact that they’re counterparts. It’s also way less confusing that way. Who the fuck would guess “Joeri” is pronounced “Yuri” if they haven’t seen Arc V?!
Pandor to Pandora
Tumblr media
Very minor change, I just enjoy the implication that Ryoken “opened Pandora’s box” when he created her. Okay, this one is definitely just me being a nerd. Moving on.
Anna Kozuki to Anna Kaboom
Tumblr media
That’s just fun, I can’t help it. Yeah it’s over the top and dumb but so is Anna so the name suits her. Admittedly, I like Zexal’s name changes in general. They’re mostly non-intrusive and some actually feel justified. Either that or they’re just fun like Lillybot and Anna Kaboom.

Holiday Finale: the Ghost and Molly McGee: Festival of Lights and Saving Christmas Review (comissioned by Weird Kev 27
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Merry Christmas Eve all you happy people! We're to the end of our christmas celebrations for the year but before I close up shop for a day or two, we have one last present to unwrap courtsey of Kev: Last year's holiday double feature from the Ghost and MollyMcGee
TGAMM isn't a show i've talked about yet on this blog, but no time like the present, as it's an excellent show. Just watching these eps I often found myself pausing as the animation is just all sorts of fluid and expressive. That's the standard for Disney at it's best granted but this show just has it's own bouncy style all it's own.
The premise is simple: An overly chipper 12 year old named Molly McGee moves to the failing town of Brighton with her family, finally finding a "forever home" after moving around a bunch. She ends up best friends with Scratch, a cynical , lazy and often hungry ghost who the rest of the ghost community laughs at, who makes the mistake of cursing her with "never leaving her"… and soon despite himself ends up genuinely enjoying this friendship while trying to ballnce that with his job of making people miserable.. not a great thing when his best friend is determiend to make everyone's lives better. The show is a fun comedy, helped by the fact it's leads are two of my faviorite voice actors, Ashly Burch of OK KO and Final Space Fame and Dana Synder of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Venture Bros, Jellystone and tons of other stuff fame. It was nice to see Ashly get a lead roll and Dana get a lead roll agai, so I was already on board but the show is enjoyable, inclusive, and fairly funny, so I liked it. I'm horribly behind on season 1b, but i'll get to it before the years out. The show made my top 20 episodes list last year and for good reason, so it's nice to have at least one more season of it.
So that brings us to today's review: last year they did a holiday special but nicely, we got a holiday treat as Ghost and Molly McGee is the first show i've seen in a while to do a full on Hannukah special!
Tumblr media
Yeah while i'm not Jewish myself, i've had a fondness for shows helping my dumb ass learn more about a holiday, having grown up with Rugrats Passover and Hannukah specials. It's just nice to help kids learn there are more holidays than christmas and what exactly goes on in those holidays, and spoilers this won't be the last special that isnt' Christmas. And I do love Christmas, I just feel other holidays deserve love too especailly with all this war on chistmas bullshit> The world is wide enough for all holidays and I shoudln't have ot say that but given it comes up every year.. yeah , I do. So put on your yammukah as we have both a happy happy hannukah and a merry christmas in the same episode with Festival of Lights and Saving Christmas.
Tumblr media
Festival of Lights: It's the final night of Hannukah, and the McGees are visting Book Marks the Spot, the Stein-Torres' bookstore. As for that name, i'm.. not a fan? I like the store itself, as someone who loves little independent book stores and used to work at one, in fact that's where I got my complete set of TinTin and first edition of the Colour of Magic among many other treasures due to having an insane amount of credit form working there. It's just the name is…
Tumblr media
Like I get it's a pun on both x marks the spot and Bookmarks, but it just dosen't work. Like… the store isn't pirate themed. I mean books are a treasure, but if you wanted a piratey name that didn't necesarily require a theme just call it hidden treasure books or something. Not everything has to be a pun. It's ran by Libby's mom Leah, who weirdly isn't named on the episode itself but is on the actual wiki page for her. I assume this is a Boonchuy Parents situation where they were named later via word of god because you can't just.. mention that in episode? Please? Make my job easier?
For those new here Libby is Molly's Best friend/probable love intrest, a somehwat shy girl Molly's age who loves beat poetry and clearly molly. Look i've never been subtle in my shipping, i'm not starting now.. though if your new then welcome to the thunderdome bitches! Seroiusly though the two just play off each other really well, are really sweet together, and the list making episode where Molly has to tell Libby.. comes off entirely romantic in Molly's not wanting to loose libby. Could be intentional, could be untetional, we've still got a season to go.
Molly tries to be supportive.. though mostly she just googled hannukah and readas she goes while Libby looks on apprceatively. Scratch is also there but he was dragged there, like the surly teenage sons the McGees never asked for but welcomed into their home anyway since he was there first and having a ghost meant they could get some money back.
Things quickly take a turn though as the lights go out. The good news is that Mrs. Stein Torres has a generator and that Chucky was busy chainsawing someone in half this holiday season, so their safe. The bad news is that it only has an hour of fuel, though people still flock to the store for warmth and Mrs. Stein Torres is happy to have them. MST is played by the incomparable Pamela Adlon aka…
Tumblr media
Though Bobby is, rightfully, her most famous roll and one of her best, Adlon has a rather long and storied career in voice acting: She's voiced Dewey Duck (Quack Pack), Spenelli (Where I first met her), Milo Oblong, Brigette Murphy, and Dr. Joanne on the now cancelled Tuca and Bertie. In addition to that she wrote and starred in the amazing FX Comedy Better Things which I highly recommend and is a talented and wonderful person.
If your familiar with the story of Hannukah you likely know where this is going: As with the oil in the temple under siege lasted 8 days instead of one, giving us 8 nights of Hannukah, the generator will last for 8 hours, with a story for each hour.
Hour 1: Scratch is ready to just run out until he finds out Hannukah involves foods in fried oil. Scratch then sings a whole musical number about fried food while Libby tries in vain to get him to use the actual names. still it's adorable, esecially to see him hang out with Libby for a change, as well as relatable since I too will stuff my face iwth anything fried.
Hour Two: The kids and Scratc h play Dreidel. I still don't quite know how it works, but it's fun to watch the kids all loose it as they all loose, cumilating in Libby winning the gelt and Scratch being pissed off to find it was choclate. Are we sure Scratch isn't just my ghost sent backwards in time and through space? Are we positve on that?
Hour Three: Libby has a spelling bee and asks the McGees to spell Hannukah, which has 16 diffrent spellings. Neat to know, one of the weaker segments
Hour Four: We then get one of the stronger ones, as Libby introuces the Miracle Box, a box where you put in a miracle that happened to you this year. It's a really sweet concept and one i'd love to try. We get the jokes you'd expect: Sharon's miracle is the van is still running, while Darryl's.. is that he didn't get caught. ("It's best you don't know"), while we get some sweet one: Molly's is natural meeting scratch, Libby's Mom's is Libby (She apparently does this every year), and Scratch's, which he spends the segement trying desperattley to not have read aloud as he wasn't aware of that part is the entirely sweet "I used to haunt a house, now I haunt a home
Tumblr media
Everyone present finds it sweet while Scratch is embarassed.. but i'ts also a nice sign of just how far his character has come in only half a season. While he only admitted it when he didn't think anyone else would eve rknow, it's still sweet to see him accept that this is his family now.. and his life is better fo rit.
Hour Five: A truly excellent bit of slam poetry by LIbby about the tale of Hannukah. Also a nice call back to her talent for it that was revealed earlier in the season> This show has a really strong continuity and I love it for it.
Hour Six: Scratch eats too many Latkes… methinks they didn't have enough time for another segment, but given how serious the segements before and after this one are, it's fair enough.
Hour Seven: We get a really nice, if suprisingly somber segment as Leah talks with Abby, a local baker played by Eden Rigel, sister of Sam "Pull on My Motherfuckin Beads" Rigel. Eden's best known for voicing Boscha on the Owl House. Abby is also Jewish but has admitely not practiced her faith in some time, but seeing the Stein-Torres Menorah reminds her of it and Leah warmly welcomes her to it… and to her family history. As it turns out their Menorah was the only thing her grandparents took with them when they fled Germany from the Nazi's. The show dosen't come right out and say that.. but anyone familiar with history, paticuarlly Krystalnacht, can spot the obvious. It's done painfully well with nice subtly: we only see her great grandparents fleeing with the menorah while a brick's thrown through the window and there's a mob of angry noice.. just enough to get past Disney's censors, but more than enough to get the point across. We also see them as they immigrate, have a son (Leah's father and LIbby's grandfather) and we see a Young Leah light the menorah for the first time> This Menorah is their family legacy an din just two mintues of screentime we see what that legacy means. It's an utterly beautiful piece of animation, just two minutes to show the pride in their history and what they escaped to get there. Hour Eight: The power finally goes out.. only for power everywhere to kick on. Libby proclaims it a Hannukah miracle, Scratch eats even more latke's and this slam dunk of an episode ends.
Seriously this episode is beauitful, a true masterpiece having both hilariaty and a lot of heart. Only the spelling bee bit didn't qutie work for me. it's a nice educational piece that helps tell the gentiles like myself about the holiday. I may still not get how Dredl works, but I feel warm having watched this.

Saving Christmas:
This being a two shorts show we have a traditional Christmas Specail to follow things up. It's the annual Snowflake Celebration, with the Mayor, voiced by my boy Patton Oswalt and looking just like him, being happy they'll crush perfectborg.. only for the tree to fall apart then catch fire. The Celebration is in ruins and so it seems is Brighton's christmas so Molly decides to find a Donor. Now who in town his rich and has lots of money?
Tumblr media
…. okay maybe save him as plan B. For Plan A Molly seeks out Mr. Davenport, played by Thomas Lennon of Reno 911 and Jellystone fame, whose shockingly shot up as a voice actor in the past few years, taking on a lot of rolls. And given his distinctive southren voice, great comedic timing and general awesomeness i'm on board.
Mr. Davenport is the father of Andrea, Molly's rival and general mean girl sterotype. That said.. Andrea is actually on her side for once: Since the festival has a Snowflake Queen Andrea wants the part and as we'll learn it turns out it's not just for the attention or the viewcount as it normally would be for her and frankly this family in general: while the social media attention is nice, she wants to do it to honor her mom.
Mr. Davenport though.. is a.. what's the term for it this time of year… a holly jolly dickhead. Yeah tha'ts it. Think I nailed that. He says it's a time for making money, that giving someone something for free is against his nature and his daughter can jsut photoshop that bitch.
So in the face of such Scoogey opposition, Molly decides to pull a christmas carol.. my third reviewed this year. I did not plan for this when I set the schedule, as I didn't think about Last Christmas! Being a take on it and assume this one was only a take on it for the last act as I hadn't seen this episode till now (I only watched Festival of Lights last year). But no Molly's entire plan is to Christmas Carol the spirit of charity into this bastard.
Scratch agrees because it's bound to be hilarious and he's right: The next few minutes are just Mr. Davenport hilariously not at all getting the points Molly tries to make and Thomas Lennon's delivery is perfect: showing him his past and how his dad wasn't a good father (with Pete and Darryl playing the parts and both ilariously dressing up for the 1880s instead of 1980s.. then just throwing in rad slang to try and compesnte), that his dad was a great buisnessman, showing him the McGees house just has him grouse about how poor they are instea dof how loving they are, and attempting to show his store closed.. dosen't work because it's an ally and Scratch flying him around dosen't scare him so much as make him want more.
While all of this is funny and a nice subversion of the Scrooge story, as well as a well done one: Molly tried to simply use a full bullet points.. not getting how each stop on the Ghost's journey was pointed: Showing him Fezzywig was to both set up belle and to show Scrooge what he could be, his failed romance with Belle reminded him what his greed already cost him, Fred showed him his nephew still love dhim even as he mocked him, the cratchets shoewd him both true kindess and the cost of his greed, and the future hammered both parts home. Each part was aimed carefully at the target. Molly simply didn't know mr. davenport well enough to actually effect him in any way.
The results though.. are terribly sad. Molly has no christmas spirit left, being utterly defeated and not relaly planning to celebrate tommorow. She coudln't save christmas, so the joy that's usually at the center of her is gone.. and given up to this point we've only seen molly this low when she nearly lost Libby, it's painful to see. We've seen her desperate… but we've never seen her out and out give up.
Scratch is naturally pissed off as hell. Not only did someone break Molly.. but on Christmas. So he decides if Mr. davenport is going to be stubborn about this, he's going to get it the hard way. The hard way.. dosen't quite work as just tossing him around only makes him Giddy. Thankfully, Scratch DOES find something that FINALLY gets through this dickhead's thick skull: Andrea, sadly starring at a picutre of her mom, putting the princess dress away and crying her eyes out. Which made me tear up just THINKING about it and finally gets Mr. Davenport to see that ther'es more to christmas. He agrees to fund the festival as you'd expect.
The ending as a result is super sweet, as Molly awakes to find the day saved, the town sings a song, Andrea gets her moment she wanted.. and Mr. Davenport sees you can use money to make merry.. and sometimes.. that's the real magic. Using what you have to help someone else. He also gets a fuckton of social media views from it, and without that being WHY he did it. Karma does work apparently! Maybe it's just if your rich but either way it's a sweet sendoff.
While it had one hell of a tough act to follow, Saving Christmas is a nice sweet christmas special. It's also really damn funny, clever and the ending is genuinely sweet. It's a good time and worth sticking around for after Festival of Lights. While the former is clearly the main attraction here and the better of the two by a mile, Saving Christmas is still a fun take on a christmas Carol and Gives Thomas Lennon a chance to flex his comedic chops. And both are worth making merry over. Have a wonderful christmas time, a happy hannukah and thanks for reading. I'll see you in a few days for the last few reviews of the year.

Name: Tancred William Sanderson
Age: 328 (appears to be in his late teens)
Gender: Cis male
Sexuality: Pansexual
Appearance: curly blond hair, blue eyes, supernatural and youthful beauty, angular face, 5’10 with a lean and scrawny build.
Personality: Acts aloof, flirty, and charmingly dumb most of the time, but that’s mainly just a façade to hide the pain, confusion, and loneliness he’s had to endure. He’s actually quite intelligent, and very talented with both his voice and his magic. He avoids conflict, and seeks to resolve things diplomatically as often as possible. He has a soft spot for children, especially those who grew up in or are stuck in an abusive household. He feels a strong need to console and protect them, and to help them get out of their situations. He loves animals, as well, and Fancy always gets onto him for bringing home strays. He is impulsive and a bit fickle by nature, has a fiery temper, and is easily offended by personal jabs. His sense of humor is often either dirty or dark, although he does enjoy a cheesy pun on occasion. It doesn’t take long for him to get attached to those who give him attention.
Likes: fire, learning new things (spells or tech), motorcycles, goth-punk aesthetic, tattoos, guitar, singing, piano, violin, courting danger, sex.
Dislikes: roses and/or thorns, Sleeping Beauty, remembering his mother and his old coven, losing control of himself in any capacity, burdening others with his problems, nightmares.
Powers: Tancred is a strong spellcaster, curse breaker, and potioneer, but he is by no means an expert. His specialty lies in casting and countering dark magic. He also has a rather hypnotic singing voice, but he tries not to abuse it like his mother did. Aside from that, he’s agile and scrappy in a fight, but no more so than most 20-somethings unless he uses magic to enhance himself in some way. He can die, but he has nine chances to come back to life afterward, restored in flames as if whatever killed him never happened. (Vampirism and other such immortality-granting curses are a special case. If he gets turned into a vampire, he won’t be reborn in flames until he’s properly killed the way a vampire would be.)
Languages: Welsh, English
Familiar: Black cat
Family: Rhiannon Sanderson (mother, estranged, deceased…?), Phoenaden (father, doesn’t know, alive, immortal)
FC: Jamie Campbell Bower
Background: In the late 1600’s, he was born into a coven of witches who were notorious both for their use of extremely dark blood magic to gain eternal youth and beauty and for their tendency to use their lovely singing voices to lure hapless victims. When he was nearly twenty, he grew tired of his family’s evil antics, and confronted his mother about it, saying that he wanted to leave and not be forced into their dastardly deeds anymore. Of course, that led to a massive argument, which culminated in his mother cursing him into an eternal slumber to shut him up. She couldn’t bear to watch him waste away, however, so she altered the curse to preserve his youth and beauty until he was finally awoken by a kiss from another magic user. She then hid him away where she was sure that no one from her coven could find him. It took a little over three centuries, but Tancred was finally pulled from his slumber by a gentle kiss on the forehead from a presence that had disappeared by the time he opened his eyes. For over a year, he wandered from place to place, trying to acclimate himself to the modern world while avoiding most people, but when a kind and stubborn witch named Fancy offered to take him in, he found it hard to resist her Southern hospitality. Together with their new coven, they work in the shadows to keep the nearby city safe from supernatural threats, ensure that local farmers have good harvests every year, and preserve the good health of their fellow Appalachian folk.

(spoilers for AI: the Somnium Files, but not for the Nirvana Initiative as it isn't out yet at time of writing)
This has been a long build coming, but I've got a goddamn bone to pick. Overall the story has its problems, but I can overlook them to simply Vibe and have a good time with my video game. It's not the type of game you're supposed to get nitpicky about, and I respect that.
But on the right side of the flowchart, in the path leading to either the Iris end or true end, Date's character gets fucking slaughtered.
I love Kaname Date. I love him so much. He's a bit too disrespectfully horny for my (and most people's) tastes, but he's actually extremely deep as a character. He's genuinely really smart and good at his job, honing in on Saito immediately after every murder with evidence to back it up.
He's goofy, loves puns, is always breaking the tension with something dumb and/or horny, but is extremely professional when it comes to his work. The interogation scene with Saito!Iris feels masterful. When speaking to Mayumi, he is patient and kind while still upholding picture perfect professionalism. He gets help from Aiba sure, but it feels like a give and take. It's not just her solving everything, they bounce off each other and have an actual partnership. It's a conversation, not a lecture. They cover each other's blind spots. He escapes into his work to push aside any nasty feelings looking overhead, throwing himself into murder investigation so he doesn't have time to think about his friend being DEAD.
And of course, his entire relationship with Mizuki. Not trusting himself to be the family she needs, but unable to sit by and watch this little girl in a bad situation. Considering Renju and Shoko (or at least Renju) his friends, but putting his foot down when so many people would just pretend not to see. Inviting her into his home, giving his bed, carving out a place in his life where she can fit because she deserves to have somewhere safe deserves to have someone she can shout at and mock and just be a KID to. I could write fucking paragraphs about their relationship and the Mizuki ending, but I will refrain.
The right side of the flowchart, the "true" ending, take that all away from him. Suddenly he feels like a watered down ghost of himself, with a terminal case of Protagonist Syndrome. Aiba has to explain everything like he's a child. So much of his personality feels muted down and bland as the game chooses instead to focus on the mystery. Which, fine, even if I don't like it I can understand why character sometimes takes a backseat to plot. But the introduction of Falco feels like a man we don't even know. There are shared components of course, and I can see the described past fitting well enough to the Date we know. But suddenly revolving his whole life around the Sagans feels like he's just throwing away the life he led as Date, and I know I'm not the only one who feels Mizuki got unfairly shoved aside in that timeline.
I hate right side of the flowchart Date so much. I miss my surprisingly competent, wise cracking, accidental father so much and he was TAKEN from me and the accepted true end has a pale imitation. The Sagans are lovely, but this has made me bitter towards them and those wonderful ladies have done nothing to earn my ire. They do not deserve this.
Tune in next time to hear my opinions on all the people Date has slept with, the verdicts may shock you.

Hello! Can I have a matchup for bnha and genshin? Those are the only two i know in that list
My sexuality: i dunno?
⚔️ ; APPEARANCE — Imagine as if a bunny got turned into a human being, yeah that's quite literally me. I got the chubby rosy cheeks, small nose that has a pinkish tone to it, i also have the bunny teeth and big round eyes. People often compare me to one and i just kinda accepted it. I also have glasses, and am a completely blind shit without them. I have red circles under my eyes (they're just there I'm fine) and i have curly jet black hair that's really fluffy. I am about like 198 cm tall
⚔️ ; PERSONALITY — My personality is basically just Arataki Itto if he was more of a crackhead, I'm very loud and chaotic. I'm also very oblivious and blunt, you'll have to explain something to me at least 10 times again, if i don't understand; i also like make jokes a lot, and puns sometimes! In general i just adore making jokes and getting a good laugh. Speaking of laugh my humor is extremely broken, I'll laugh at anything ranging from the most chaotic thing (examples: a goddamn picture of an m&m, a horse with high heels, a piece of bread falling, the word balls, someone flying, literally an image of a tree with music) honestly anything ranging from just that will make me wheeze like my lungs just exploded, or I'll laugh like a crazed fox. I am seen as pretty chill, I'm honestly a happy-go-lucky person and I can socialize with everyone! i have a habit of cursing and invent the most absurd sounding curse words my favorite ones are “you blithering feculent shithole” “What in the name of sweet dong tickling horse fuck?!” “bunch of putrid douchesquatting cretins” “you bullshitting shitbagging fuckass” and finally “how can you be such a fucksquatting pain in the waste chute” i also act like a knight despite my use of constant profanity. 'Tis but the truest way of the knight! Any chance i get to act like a knight, I'll take it. I probably pay more attention to animals then humans, if I'm in the presence of an animal and you're talking to me? I'll pay more attention to the animal. I usually miss major signs due to me being an oblivious asswhiffer and usually misunderstand situations a lot. I’m also really vengeful, my way of thinking is similar to that of Garou from OPM or even The Hero Killer Stain Himself. (how the hero demographic gets ALL the benefits and praise. Even in play fighting. I believe a villain is a living being and could become so much more if they weren’t labelled so bad though obviously there's real bad people, it's just not the villains they have their own motives and it's usually pretty innocent. I overly detest the over-egotistical nature of the heroes and just how easy life can be for them. I label it as injustice. The inequality is crystal clear, If i could i would bring justice to the villains. MHA Heroes are kinda on thin ice with me, i see them as the same with all heroes.)
⚔️ ; HOBBIES — drawing,reading, writing, dancing, i have a habit of cracking my bones- like how people crack their fists, i do that except with every bone in my body. Acting like a knight, or just whatever randomness my dumb fuckass of a brain can come up with
★ What i look for in a date: A date that's basically just us going to see a movie, somewhere in winter or just in a generally cold area (i hate the heat 💀) eating delicious food like: lasagna though i honestly prefer it to be cold as well (don't judge me) and we come back home and cuddle, i of course, am the little spoon despite being tall. I'm not the type of person to give orders i prefer my friendfriend [QPP] to do it for me, I'd love it if the person gave me headpats, i would literally hold them up and hug them tightly.
★ What i would avoid in a date: Overly romantic dates, If they don't respect my boundaries, genuinely shitty behavior, doesn't respect my opinions. It's in an extremely hot area, and we eat hot food.
★ Perfect date : like i mentioned in what i looked for in a date, just that. :)
— 🗡️ anon or knight anon
Tumblr media
╰┈➤ I’d match you with… Iida Tenya!
╰i┈➤ I’d match you with… Noelle!
Tumblr media
Noelle practices being knightly on a regular, day-to-day basis, so she can give you tips and notes to be a genuine knight<;33
Also any stories of knights? Kids books or adult? Given to you immediately given to you cause she collects them, and she’s super excited to share
She doesn’t believe it’s knightly, or generally just polite, to disrespect boundaries
Can barely stand cold weather so going into dragonspine, she’s gonna be cuddled up in blankets and jackets
Loves to bake and cook, Noelle learns quickly so she can definitely learn some cold dishes!
Tumblr media
“Ah?! Are you sure you have enough layers? I have some extra blankets and jackets!”
Tumblr media
Iida will definitely try to show off his knightly skills, and generally ‘knightly’ family in front of you to impress<33
Listens to you if you rant about inequality of heroes and the injustice within the system, even if he has trouble agreeing, there’s somethings that he agrees and disagrees with
He kinda shifts when admitted you say you think Stain was “right” but doesn’t blame you (just please down do attempted murder..)
but he does see your point and respects it
He’ll take your hand and spin you around randomly<33
Iida flinches when you pop your knuckles and has this look of horror if his bones crack<3
Tumblr media
“[Name]! I can not possibly see how you’re okay with doing that to your poor knuckles!”

By Talos, This Can’t be Happening pt 7
Time for another Tamriel Tuesday! Swag gets in a bit of a tangle.
Rated PG13 for: Blood, violence, sexual situations, bad puns, and other poor life choices.
@cardwrecks @captainbaddecisions @miasmacaron I’m still going.
They were up nearly with the sun the next day, turned out by the innkeeper who apparently had a fairly high customer turnover rate. Night shift people needed the rooms to sleep in during the day, and they hadn't even paid hard coin for theirs, so they couldn't complain. Well, not to the innkeepers face anyway.
Helix parted from him out in the city, with an agreement to meet back up at the T&T at around noon. Then she was off to find other mages or something like that, and he was left to scavenge an entire new city for opportunity.
The smith was easy to locate; the sound of a hammer pounding metal was pretty easy to identify, even if he'd only ever heard it on TV. He slipped inside the heat blasted building to examine what was on offer.
Very solid armor, large, thick plates of it, swords half as tall as he was, big, blocky hammers and two-headed axes. It all looked very heavy.
The smith only noticed him after a few moments, wiped grime from his forehead, and grinned wide and friendly. “Welcome in, cousin!” the smith greeted in a large, soot-rough voice. “Anything I can fit you with today? What's your style? One hand? Two hands? I've got most of your basic things, though the bows aren't my make.”
What was his style? Running the fuck away. He probably couldn't buy 'improvised weaponry' here, and small firearms were out of the question. A cane...probably just equated to a club or walking stick, and he could definitely find that outside in the forest for free.
He shrugged.
“Set of knuckle dusters? You know. For the punching?” he mimicked the action at the smith's confused stare.
“Oh, I see. Gauntlets.  Ah, well, unfortunately, I don't really do the fiddly detailed work anymore.” He held up his left hand, which was missing two fingers. “But I know someone who does.”
He lifted his arm, and pointed to the west.
“You'll want to get to Chorrol. Rasheda's the smith there, up and coming young thing, beautiful work. She's very good with the more delicate pieces, could make you a pair of gauntlets that would form to every joint in your hand. Not cheap though, but good work shouldn't be, am I right?”
“No, you're right. Well, in the meantime, could you get me a care kit for this?” Swag set his dagger down on the counter. The smith picked it up to give it a close examination.
“Yeah...looks like it needs it. And I can bang this loose pin back in too. Five septims, I'll do all that and fix it up a bit. Sound good?”
“Sounds great, man.”
Swag left with a newly refurbished blade, and everything he would need in order to maintain it. He really wanted to hold tight to the rest of their scarce coins until he could find a way to increase their number, but the knife was their only real weapon, and it needed to be upkept.
He decided to head back to the Tap a little early, and see what he might glean from the people there. Some kind of simple work, entertainment, or...
He really hadn't meant for it to happen, though in hindsight, he supposed it was inevitable. Drunk people were easy to hustle, but also easy to anger, and he learned the rules of the game a little too fast, won a little too often. It aroused suspicion in even the most inebriated mind, and Swag had no friends here.
The brawl had spilled out onto the street, and the guards didn't bother with discernment.
Thus, he found himself stuck in the local clink for the night, with a split eyebrow and a bruised ego, but he wasn't as badly off as the other guy. Dumb fuck had taken a swing at the guards and gotten a broken nose and a week long prison stay for his trouble. Everybody else had cooperated after that, and the whole posse would have a warm night indoors for it.
His cellmate was someone who hadn't been involved in the fight, a surly, chatty fellow who mentioned that he was in for life, and insisted he'd been framed. He didn't seem to be trying the typical prison intimidation routine, so Swag mostly ignored him in favor of the sweetest and most terrifying sound an incarcerated man could hear: his lover's shouting, furious voice coming closer and closer.
“You let me see my husband this instant! I want to know what happened! Get out of my way!”
Ah, now that was nice. She might kick his ass later, but it was worth it to hear her chewing out a constable for not opening the door fast enough. Five feet of unstoppable force shoved past the beleaguered prison guard to spot him leaning against the iron bars.
“Edward!” She rushed forward to clutch his hands, completely ignoring the guards order to stay away from the bars. “What happened? Who put you here? You can't be here! Oh, your face!”
“I'm fine, it's just a cut. Looks worse than it is. Look, there was a game, there was a wager, there was a completely unfounded accusation of cheating, and there was a little bit of a fight. It's more embarrassing than anything else, really.”
“But...but they won't let you out! How do I get you out? I can't just leave you here!”
In another world, she really could just walk in and walk back out with him in tow, and no one the wiser. But not here, and the concern was etched deep into her face.
“Hey, hey don't worry. I know how to survive prison.” He tried to soothe her, but the thin whine that escaped her marked it as a failure. “It's only overnight, I'll be out in the morning. Find someplace to sleep and don't worry. I'm not gonna dye my hair or anything, it'll be okay. This is just a dumb thing you can scold me about later.”
The guard tried to pull her away, but she fixed him with a snarling glare so heated that he let go and backed up. Swag's heart fluttered a bit. It did things to him, when Helix got all fiery and impetuous. Still, the guard had a sword on his hip, and Helix had nothing. It was a bad time for going all melty inside.
Instead, he kissed her hands and convinced her to leave peacefully, that he would meet her at her 'mage's guild' the next day. Then he settled back against the wall to wait.
His cellmate seemed deeply unimpressed by the romantic display, regaling him with an unprompted lecture about the inconstancy of women. Seemed the fellow had been involved in a Bonnie and Clyde type situation, only his sweet Bonnie had stabbed him in the back after a big heist. Now he was doing life for a murder he swore he didn't commit, and wanted revenge. Swag wasn't sure he believed the guys account of what happened, but the mans promise of treasure might be worth looking into. Once he got out, he might just visit this Arnora and see what was up.
They kept him a few hours longer than they should have, out of spite, he was sure. The guard Helix had intimidated probably had an axe to grind. But soon enough he was back under the sun, strolling through the business district in search of the Mage's Guild.
The architecture here was distinctive, solid stone and ornately carved wooden doors and pillars. He found a building flying green banners, blazoned with a sundisk eyeball, surrounded by strange sigils. Yep, definitely magic shit.
He tried to get in, but the haughty woman behind the desk forced him back out. Only mages were allowed, according to her. The harpy wouldn't even tell him where Helix was, just that she was in the middle of doing her a favor, and couldn't be interrupted.
Disgruntled, but not equipped to get in an argument with someone who could shoot fire from her hands, Swag instead decided to follow up on finding that Arnora lady. Helix would come outside sometime.
Swag got the feeling that the fellow in the jail might not have been exaggerating this womans duplicity. Oh she spun a tale all right, of fear for her life, of the violence from her male companion, of feeling trapped in a lifestyle she never wanted. All the while wearing ostentatious jewelry and fine clothing bought with the spoils of that lifestyle. Unfortunately for her, he was intimately familiar with that life, and the habits of those within it, and her performance was just a little too pat. Her appeals to his masculine protective instincts too rote.
Aww, she thought she could manipulate him.
How cute.
It was easy enough to play along and leave her satisfied...with their bargain, of course. He'd already decided she couldn't have even a single inch of him, but he didn't hesitate to plant the suggestion. It had been very effective, and he sauntered back to the jailhouse, twirling her distinctive pendant in the air, suffused with the gratification of a successful scam. Easy, easy, easy.
It was funny, the two tales, so different in ways that were obviously bullshit. Each one claiming complete innocence in a crime that absolutely took two. Lying to him over and over again, and soooo badly. And all over a stolen treasure. He was very tempted not to split it halvsies with her, like he'd agreed, to just grab Helix and abscond with the whole thing.
Eh, but maybe not. Fun was fun, but Arnora seemed to have inexplicably good standing with the other people in town, if the murmurs of the citizens outside her house were any clue. Making an enemy with actual social clout so soon just wasn't advisable. He could probably talk his way out of it, but for now, he needed to visit an old friend on the inside.
The angry man laughed at the sight of the pendant Swag brought, and gave up the location of the money without any further demands, but with a warning to look out for the big bull.
Well, Swag didn't wear red, so he wasn't too worried.
Out the north gate and down to where the path split, and yes, a cluster of stones with a bush sprouting on top. That was the place. Whistling, Swag trotted down the path, ready to shove the rocks aside, and claim his prize.
The sound of a blade being drawn quietly behind him. Not quiet enough. Swag threw himself to the side and the sword struck the stone instead, throwing a spark.
“Hey, what the fuck man?” Swag snapped. The prison guard glared at him, sour-faced over his missed shot. “Not cool, dude.”
“I've been trying to get the location of this stash out of Joundr for days now.” the guard sneered. “And you just led me right to it.”
“Yeah, pretty dumb on my part, gotta admit.” Swag said, maneuvering toward the road. Why hadn't he realized that he might not be the only one searching for this treasure? His eyes flicked up the road, toward the city. He could definitely outrun this guy.
“Don't bother. There's no one for you to go to. I already took care of the woman. You're the only loose end left.”
Took care of the woman.
Freezing, terrible rage seeped in, filling the spots where his soul drained away, and his brain offered up only thoughts about how he could take this man apart, piece by piece, make it last, make it hurt...
His hand strayed unconsciously toward his dagger, all shiny and clean and waiting, but the man just kept talking, as if no one in this entire world knew that a villainous monologue only brought consequences. Amateurs, all of them, he could blow through this town like a tide of consequences-
“-and who wouldn't take the word of a humble, hardworking city guard when there's a convenient foreigner to blame for the murder of such a fine, upstanding citizen? You can try to run, and your little bitch can breathe fire all she likes, but you were the last one seen with Arnora, and all the evidence points to you.”
He was alive again, breathing, feeling, relief pumping out of his heart along with his blood. He bent over, hands on his knees.
“Oh shit dude.” he gasped. “I think that's the first time a stupid monologue actually saved a mans life!”
“Enough. Die like a Nord, or die like a worm!”
“I'll take the third thing, thanks!”
Swag, already bent over, reached down, grabbed some dirt, and flung it directly into the charging guards eyes. As he flailed about, Swag dashed past him and vaulted over the stones. The blinded guard smashed his sword into everything near him, but none of those things were Swag, and that was all that mattered.
A huge bellow sounded over the racket of sword on stone, a massive, grotesque creature crashing into the blinded guard with enough force to lift and carry him along.
The big bull. It really was; a black, bipedal creature with an enormous bovine head.
A goddamn minotaur!
Swag flattened himself against the stones, squeezing into whatever cracks he could find, cloak up over his head. Just pretend to be a rock.
The confrontation was short. Aside from the crunch and shout, and stomping of the initial charge, Swag heard little more than the clank of fallen armor, and the dissatisfied snorting of an angry bull crashing off through the underbrush.
After many minutes of quiet, and the picking up of birdsong in the trees, Swag peeked back over the stones.
The corrupt guard lay in a twisted heap, a very large hole punched right through his thick breastplate.
Welp. Treasure wouldn't be doing this guy any good now. Sucked for him, but he had murdered Arnora, and had tried to murder him, so Swag's sympathy was short.
Speaking of...
He slowly and cautiously approached the definitely very dead body, just to make sure. Yup. That was what a dead man looked like. Habit set his eyes roaming for useful things to lift off the corpse, but...no. Instead, Swag retrieved Arnoras distinctive pendant, and planted it on the body.
Try to frame him, huh? Well he'd just frame right back!
Was it framing if the guy actually did it though? In any case, he wouldn't be returning the thing to Arnora.
“Well, rest in peace, I guess. Hope you're less of a dick, wherever you end up.”
Swag returned to the stones to retrieve the prize he'd come out for in the first place. Shifting the rocks turned up a small strongbox, the contents of which he scooped into one of his many stolen pouches. He'd sort it out later. He also noticed a few bluish-gray mushrooms, and grabbed them too. A nice little extra for Helix, when she got done running mage errands.
Swirling with a conflicting mix of pride, satisfaction, adrenaline, and regret, Swag turned back to the path.
Something snorted loudly behind him.
Swag broke for the city like a dart from a gun.

voidchimeras random teen wolf headcanons:
there is a group chat that the mccall pack uses to communicate.
it’s called something really stupid like wolf-babies
lydia tries to teach derek how to use instagram.
spoiler alert: he’s terrible at it
theo is really good at playing guitar + learns liam’s favorite song to play it for him
god ik im soft for thiam leave me alone
malia makes purposefully makes dumb jokes/puns when situations are tense
she’s not oblivious to the stress of the pack
she tries to lighten the mood, which is sometimes what everyone needs to clear the air
mason, much like stiles, does an intense amount of research on the supernatural to help when needed.
issac keeps in contact with the pack while in london (paris?) to alert them of potential threats headed their way.
also because he misses them
scott, true alpha scott, is afraid of spiders
only stiles knows, but stiles secretly told derek
stiles still gets nightmares from when he was possessed by void
he makes a promise to himself to visit allison’s grave more then once a year
speaking of allison, the pack had a bit of a falling out after both allison and aiden passed.
they were all grieving in their different ways, causing them to split for a short while
they were brought back together by stiles who said to them “do you really think allison would have wanted us to fall apart like this?”
the entire pack comes to watch stiles, scott, malia, and lydia graduate.
it was very emotional
liam cried the most for some reason
derek claims he didn’t shed a tear, the sheriff who was sitting next to him said otherwise
melissa claims she’ll take vacation time eventually, but she never does
it drives scott insane because he knows she deserves a break
pack movies nights when things aren’t total chaos in beacon hills
malia has never seen the twilight series
lydia proceeds to make the entire pack watch all fives movies
stiles might be a little too invested by the end
scott and stiles have been dedicated to dressing up every year for halloween and rope the pack into it.
their junior year they dressed up like scooby doo
their senior year they were pirates
let me know if you’d want me to make more of these because i have sooooo many - jaedyn

Yesss.....
Alright I was wondering if you could write about the nurse coming in to the cafeteria and she's on crutches because she broke her foot when she stood up for work in the morning? (I did that I feel so dumb!)
Tumblr media
Freddy : "What the f*ck happened to you ?"
He would be worried at first, but wouldn't be able to hold back his laughter when you would explain what happened to you.
"You broke your foot...by just walking on your way here ?!"
He won't leave you be..You're the nice nurse who is usually so careful and makes sure that they never get hurt, but you can't even see where you're going ?! Yeah..Not gonna let that one go for a while.
"How's it going, Humpty Dumpty ?!"
Tumblr media
Norman *immediately worries and stands up to check on you* : "What happened, my little monster ?"
He would put you on house arrest for the day and bring you food. The man would be a sweetheart with you and not allow you to leave your bed until you're fully restored and rested.
"Don't move. I'll take care of the slashers for the day.."
Oh, boy..He really didn't think this through..He walked in the living room and saw the walls covered in blood, Penny crawling on the ceiling and Freddy floating in the air with Pennywise..He sighed.
"Y/N..Please, come back fast."
Tumblr media
Pennywise : "I did not see that one coming.."
He would say when seeing you enter the room with clutches. He would try to be as nice as possible, well..It's still Pennywise we're talking about.
"Can't you just..put it back together and be done with it ? No ? *scoffs* You humans are really weak.."
He would still worry and stay with you until you're walking normally again. He can't risk to lose his favorite human and would growl at whoever enters to ask for your help.
"She's busy ! Get it done yourself !"
He would then pretend not to care, but still come into your room every morning to check on you.
Tumblr media
Penny : "You need to be more careful, human !"
He would be concerned at first when he sees you arrive, but would still treat you the same. You can't walk ? No problem. He'll carry you around. You need food ? Easy. Teleportation. He wouldn't really see it as a handicap, but more of a way to have you all to himself for a few weeks. Penny doesn't understand humans' injuries. It would take him merely hours to heal a broken leg.
"You humans are so...fragile. I could literally crush you, and yet, you are also very tenacious..I don't like your species, never will..But, I have to admit that I will always marvel at your consistent will to live.."
You can't help but flinch as his eyes snap up to you and they're the color of fire.
"Don't you find it funny..nurse ?"
Somehow, you feel as if it's a question which is hiding another. Penny may be nice to you most of the time, but that doesn't mean you feel any less safer under his very perceptive eyes.
Tumblr media
Brahms *immediately notices and asks you worriedly* : "Are you okay, nurse Y/N ?!"
He would try to stay out of trouble and spend as much time with you to ensure you don’t hurt yourself even more.
"Hey ! Don’t get out of bed. You’re still hurt !"
He would also insist on him bringing you your food in your room, as to not risk worsening your state with other slashers that would surely annoy you with questions or just insist on playing with them. He would also bring you gifts (dolls, chocolates, flowers..)
Tumblr media
Jason *sighs before picking you up bridal style to get you back to your room* : "I'll bring you some food later..But, rest ? Please ?"
He will take care of you and try to be as useful as possible, but Jason is Jason so..He'll create more problems than solve them.
"I kinda burned the stove and almost cut out Michael's head while cutting vegetables ? But, yeah, here's your food.."
He may not be the best at handling these sorts of situations, but he will do his best.
Tumblr media
Arthur : "Well..Someone woke up on the wrong foot this morning ?! Sorry..I couldn't help myself."
Lots of jokes and injured puns. Arthur would make sure you get some rest, but wouldnt pass on the opportunity to joke around with you, making sure you're not bored while you recover. He would also make sure that a doctor checks on your daily and dance for you to make you smile, everything to make you smile..
Tumblr media
Patricia : "Do you want a sandwich ?"
She would try to make you feel better and prepare you food. True, she only knows how to make sandwiches, but Michael did help step up her game with..Brace yourself..grilled cheese sandwiches ! Yeah. Big step up here. Patricia would also come see you everyday to talk and inform you of whatever the slashers have been up to and discuss about different events that happened to the Horde during their day. She's your gossip girl. She'd also ask how you are and if anything exciting happened during your day ? She can be very caring when she wants to.
Tumblr media
Five : "Are you really that stupid ?"
Pure and harsh criticism. He may be worried, but he would never tell you that. He would offer you tough love instead and make sure this doesn't happen again.
"One foot in front of the other. That's not so hard."
However, he would help you walk around the facility and make sure nobody asks too much of you. Five may act rude, but it's just that he isn't used to showing his concern openly or dealing with such minor issues. He was shot multiple times and survived, a broken leg is nothing to him but he understands that it's a big deal for you.
Tumblr media
"Are you feeling better ?"
Not gonna lie. Michael is a big fellow that rarely gets injured. He's literally made of muscles and usually takes his victims by surprise, so they never really injured him in the past, unless to attack weak and sensitive spots for the luckiest. (eyes, mouth, ears..) He never actually had to worry about an injured limb before and doesn't know how long it takes one to heal, so he'll just come whenever he can and ask how you're feeling and give you support whenever he can. As he is the strongest of the slashers (physically), he won't mind carrying you around in his arms to allow you to see the others (and ensure that no one is dead during your brief stay in the infirmary bay..)

y'know i personally would make tomo the standard spider-man sacrifice... tomo likely gets shot or (maybe stabbed??) while trying to help spider-man during a hostage situation
the others make it out safe thanks to tomo's distraction and the criminals get caught and when kazuha basically swings tomo to safety and lets him try and walk, he basically just crumples to the ground and kazuha can see how much he's bleeding ... how kazuha didn't notice this, he's not sure, but tomo did a damn good job of hiding it -- even now, as kazuha slowly lowers him to the ground, tomo is smiling, seemingly already at peace with the situation
tomo already knew that kazuha was spider-man; he figured it out right away. so kazuha takes off his mask and tomo says his piece, says good-bye to his best friend of over 20 years, and dies in kazuha's arms
dunno where the "with great power comes great responsibility" line would show up. not in tomo's dying moments -- probably when he told kazuha that he knew a few years back. he said it to remind kazuha of the weight he was shouldering as spider-man -- to make sure that kazuha was sure he wanted to do this. at the time, kazuha was absolutely sure, especially since he had someone special to protect
but without thinking, kazuha made protecting tomo his entire responsibility -- not protecting the city. so when tomo dies, kazuha has nothing to protect. no reason to be spider-man anymore. so i'd like to think he'd be like andrew's spider-man and go m.i.a for a few months.
and in that time, you realize that you only see one of the two baristas that you usually do. the taller one with blonde hair and a goofy smile doesn't seem to be coming back and the pretty white-haired one is quieter than usual with dark circles and no light in his eyes. he doesn't smile anymore and his voice has become monotonous. it bothers you.
so every now and again, you'd try to make conversation whenever you bought something. you'd ask about the weather, try to make a stupid coffee pun (which worked really well -- the pretty barista wouldn't exactly smile, but he'd exhale sharply through his nose and shake his head slightly. it's not much, but it's a start.) ... basically you tried to bring some sort of life back into this little café
and your efforts work! kinda? the pretty barista -- kazuha, you remember his name now -- would perk up just a little every time you walked in and you could kind of see the shadow lift from his face. he's trying to smile more these days and he's writing dumb puns on the napkins he gives you. when you look up during your studies, sometimes you'll catch him staring at you, at which point you'll see him quickly look away and busy himself with something else.
sooo i know i said once that kazuha likely fell in love with you from afar on campus, but i'm gonna tweak that just a teeny bit:
kazuha developed a crush on you from afar, yes, but he fell in love with you because of how kind and patient you were with him when he needed it the most. he never lost his little crush on you, he just ... couldn't be bothered. but you helped him bounce back, even if only by a little bit. you put the light back in his eyes.
you're really all he has left, and you don't even know it.
spider-man comes back after eight months. crime is worse than it's ever been, but as soon as he's back on the scene, it starts to dwindle very, VERY quickly.

Can I request a teen mc who is like YUJI from jujutsu kaisen as in they are the vessel of SUKUNA PLSS? Like maybe they can manifest SUKUNA in his curse form as another being as well like megumis dogs? (If you don’t know JJK can you just do a chaotic teen mc? ❤️)
WHEW THIS ALMOST DID NOT GET POSTED SINCE TUMBLR DELETED PARTS OF IT.
So let me tell you: I started reading the manga but have yet to watch the anime 😭 it’s really good though and I’m probably gonna start it this week, but I’m not sure if I’m 100% confident in writing Sukuna. BUT this request was too good to pass up, so if you don’t like it I will write the other scenario instead just let me know!
So for these headcanons, I made it to where MC is Sukuna’s vessel like Yuji, and that they can manifest him if needed. But, I still kept it to where he’s not exactly a good guy with MC’s best interest at heart. Reader is gender neutral and younger than the Bros, so the dynamic is more family instead of romance just a heads up! Hope you enjoy!
TW: Minor cursing, spoilers for Lesson 16 in Mammon’s, Beel’s, and Belphie’s part
The Brothers with Teen MC who’s Sukuna’s Vessel
Lucifer
Was very irritated with this revelation, but still curious
Still annoyed either way though
He already had to make sure that you stayed alive during your stay and not disappoint Diavolo, but now he had to make sure that you kept this curse at bay too!
#GiveLuciferABreak2021
He’s very skeptical of you: not only because of you being a young human but also being a human with essentially a demon inside of you
A very troublesome demon if not kept under control at all times
Honestly Sukuna was like an buzzing gnat who wouldn’t just go away, so Lucifer didn’t see him as a threat personally. More of a nuisance that could grow into a threat if remained unchecked
After you explained the whole situation, he still assigned Mammon to you, but he made sure to personally keep an eye on you too
Your presence was seen as a threat at first, but as time passed, he, along with his brothers knew you meant no harm, but the same couldn’t be said for this Sukuna
He wanted to have faith in you, but he couldn’t bring himself to fully believe it. After an incident at RAD with another demon attempting to attack you, your powers (or rather Sukuna’s) came out to play
He saw the markings, the extra eyes, the malice spread on your face, and he then realized just how serious this has become. You were able to gain control back, but the damage was already done. You were so distraught, sobbing before you, trying to apologize and swearing that you didn’t mean for this to happen, all the while Sukuna was laughing, morphing a mouth on your cheek
It was so bizarre to see, and he couldn’t help but feel a pang of pity for you. You were such a kind person, always going out of the way to spend time and help wherever you could. You essentially became a part of the family, but he knew that you didn’t feel accepted because of him
After that, your “punishment” was to practice holding control over Sukuna with Lucifer, every day after school (which can just be seen as him checking in on you on a daily basis, and trying out different techniques to make sure repeats of this incident doesn’t happen again). Meaning that you trained on manifesting him at will, instead of him completely taking over
Not gonna lie he’s acting like a proud dad when he sees you making progress and Sukuna just sitting in your head tired of all this positivity lol
Lucifer cares for you, he’s accepted you fully even if you hadn’t for yourself. He wants to protect all of his family (including you), and he doesn’t want to think about what could happen if Sukuna becomes a danger to the Devildom or Diavolo...
Mammon
Is impressed but also low key nervous
Humans are not suppose to be like this, ya know!
He’s not the smartest demon in Hell, but he definitely knows that you can’t summon demons without a pact, and he knows your baby face doesn’t have one with the King of Curses
You had to break down the whole deal, and it made him even more confused and distressed
Was still acting annoyed being your designated babysitter, I mean seriously, just how annoying can you be?!
Just kidding! You guys are totally partners in crime in no time and you both make Lucifer get 2x the wrinkles now
“MC, let the Great Mammon show you how’s it done!”
“Mammon, you’re going to be the reason why we’ll be strung up again for the third time this week.”
“It’s going to be both of your idiots’ faults. Such a pathetic display.”
SHIT HE FORGOT YOU GOT A WHOLE CURSE INSIDE YOU
He HATES whenever Sukuna makes an appearance, whether you call on him or he makes his own special appearance. He’s like a gritty and more sadistic version of Lucifer, minus the style and uptight personality (and honestly the finesse too), which made him 10x the more aggravating
He honestly hates Sukuna in general. Here you are, his MC, one of the only people to stand up and defend him always, struggling to live a normal life because of him. It was bad enough that you got sent down here with no warning, but now you got sent with him, and from what Mammon could hear with the conversations between you two, he wasn’t exactly your BFF
Denies being excited about seeing you perform your cursed techniques, but only because it brings him out (and he guesses it’s a little cool that you know how to do it). But human, you don’t need that lame curse, you got the great demon himself to protect you!
On a darker note, you made Mammon swear to you that if Sukuna took over and you for some reason couldn’t gain back control, that he would protect himself and his brothers first before worrying about you. He hated this even coming up, you should be worrying about what’s the next scheme you guys could pull off, not some weird sharpie colored entity causing problems. But you were dead serious, and you made him promise that if the worst case scenario ever happened, he would make sure it’s taken care of
Mammon realized you were the missing piece to their family. It felt nice to have someone depend on him, to actually treat him with respect and care for him truly. He refused to accept Sukuna as a part of you (really he just acted like he didn’t exist, which he didn’t in his mind), and he refused to let him or anyone else harm you
You’re family now, and he wasn’t going to lose anyone else ever again
Leviathan
Oh look, another normie
Wow, you’re such a normie that you’re even talking to yourself through a manifested mouth on your palm-wait WHAT
You broke it down to him, and you just...stared at you, with a blank expression on his face. Until-
“OMG THIS IS JUST LIKE THE ANIME-“
How ironic lol
He practically had a fanboy overload moment whenever you showed off your cursed techniques to him after he begged asked you countless times
You guys remember that vine with the kid saying, “I have the power of God and anime on my side”? Recreate that while doing your moves and he’ll be in awe and dying laughing at the same time
Will post it to his Devilgram and DevilTube
His envy will start to show at first. How is it that someone boring like you get to have all these cool powers and have an actual king reside in you?? You’re living the Shonen dream and not even grateful for it!
But this reality for him would soon shatter after he saw Sukuna for himself, and the way that he behaved towards you. The way that the curse would just look at with disdain in his eyes just made Levi’s skin crawl. He was made well aware that you were in fact not living the anime dream he thought you were. The look in your eyes reminded him of how he would feel whenever he felt like a scummy otaku, and from that point forward he would find ways to cheer you up
You can plan on having anime marathons, game nights, even talking with Henry (I hc that he can talk and understand aquatic animals) when you get into these moods. Anything that helps him get out of his funks he’s hoping it helps you too. You don’t deserve this type of treatment from anyone, especially someone that even he can no doubt eliminate
You were honestly one of the coolest people that he knows, and one of the strongest too! Not just physically, but mentally too. He can’t imagine what could be going on in your head since Sukuna became a part of you, but he knows that you’re strong enough to overcome anything that he throws at you. And if you had moments where you faltered or doubted yourself, that’s okay! Levi would be right beside you the whole way, doing anything he can to keep pushing you forward
Be the teen anime hero that he’s know you can be MC! You wouldn’t be his Henry if he didn’t have any faith in you, you know?
Bonus: you don’t have to worry about your anime nights being ruined after one night when Sukuna somehow found a spoiler to an anime that Levi was really anticipating became a very visual warning for the curse. Levi convinced you to let him take over, and whatever was said resonated with him because you never heard a peep after that, both out loud and in your head
Satan
Oh he was BEYOND fascinated
We all know how much Satan loves to read and how smart he is, so while you look at your condition as a curse (no pun intended), he saw it as an opportunity
Could you feel this curse coursing through your body? Did you feel stronger? Could he see through your eyes all the time or only when you let him? He had so many questions it wasn’t even funny
Very understanding of your situation surprisingly (but still called you dumb for eating Sukuna’s finger)
Satan would be one of the only people you could really trust when dealing with Sukuna. Yes, you trusted all of the brothers, but if you were really in a bind you could count on Satan to come up with a solution quickly
The only issue was his anger. Everyone knows just how angry he can get, and to avoid him ASAP if you even think he’s getting frustrated. Sukuna knows this too, and will be more than happy to taunt him to truly bring out his wrath. While he does need you alive (for now), it wouldn’t hurt to have some type of fun around here. Plus, this could cause your bonds with these brothers to weaken, and the weaker the bond, the weaker the will to help you keep him at bay and defeat him
But Satan knew better, and you did your best in keeping Sukuna away. He may be the Avatar of Wrath but that didn’t mean he was stupid. However, he did have one slip up unfortunately
You see, he was just having a bad day and already got into a spat with Lucifer, and you sensed that he certainly needed his space. So while you slowly backtracked to your room and from his path, Sukuna decided to be the evil ass that he is, and proceed to provoke him. What finally made him snap was his comment that, “You would be a formidable opponent if you weren’t in your older brothers’ shadow, but oh well. Can’t help who you come from I see.”
It took Beel, Mammon, and Lucifer to properly restrain him from ripping Sukuna (really you) limb from limb, with him laughing manically and you scrambling back in fear. Which called for a very long, detailed family meeting (of course after Satan fully calmed down) that resulted in mediated meetings between you and him for the next month. You felt guilty, you should have done better containing him, but you couldn’t predict whenever he decided to pop up!
But after a long talk, Satan didn’t blame you. He blamed himself for losing to his anger and especially blamed Sukuna. He decided that it was time to get rid of this pest once and for all. Be ready MC, cause once he puts his mind to something, there’s no stopping him
Prepare for your bonding time to be deep into books and practicing new hexes and curses. But don’t worry, it’s not always boring and Satan makes sure that you’re having some type of fun. He’s really doing this to have some sort of protection for you: whether it’s against Sukuna or himself. He wants you to know something besides your cursed techniques just in case they fail for some reason
Will shockingly want you to manifest the curse, one main reason is to obviously collect information on him, the other reason is to test said hexes and curses on him
Can a curse be cursed? Let’s find out
You helped Satan with him realizing that anger isn’t the only emotion that you can feel, and with you being so young, he wanted you to experience life as much as you can. And while you had an extra...passenger with you, he will do his best to make sure that it doesn’t get in the way of you enjoying life. It was nice to see a joyous smile on your face
Also you guys did find a hex that made Sukuna meow for the whole day and it was the best thing to ever happen with him lmao
Asmodeus
Honestly wasn’t really bothered with it at first. If anything, he treated it like hot gossip when you told him in the beginning
One thing he will say though: humans can be so revolting at times. I mean you ate a rotten finger, a cursed, aged, sharp, disgusting- you get the point. He did cringe at that, but everything else was pretty normal besides that
Still talked about your daily gossip, painted nails, the works. But recently, Sukuna’s name has been coming up more and more in your recent convos. Asmo, being quite the messy curious demon, wanted to know more about this curse
He really treated Sukuna like he was just your show and tell act and would want you to bring it out to see how he really was. He was amused with your cursed techniques, but he wanted to see more!
He heard you both talking with one another, and he wanted to see him in person! He hasn’t done anything and you’re among the seven strongest in Hell, so what could go wrong?
So much. So much could go wrong
And so much went wrong
After you manifested him, it went downhill from there. The large amount of control you did show caught his attention, but then it moved to the King of Curses himself. He was very delighted to see him up close for more than a couple of seconds, and took his time admiring his physique up close. It was fun for him, but not for you. Sukuna could feel your will slipping since your focus was being divided dealing with Asmo, so he took this as his time to shine
You had an exhausting day, and you were tired, which he used to his advantage. Asmo started to complain when Sukuna suddenly disappeared, but didn’t have a chance to voice it as your arm suddenly gripped the front of his shirt. He felt himself jolt, feeling his heart pumping. He looked into your eyes and realized that this wasn’t you, this was now Sukuna. The black markings that lined your face along with the new eye color (and the extra pair of eyes) came with a grin that stretched across your face
“What’s the matter? You were so eager to be in my presence, is it not to your liking now that the tables have turned? You claim to be one of the strongest, yet I would be able to kill you just being in this form-Ah, the brat is trying to come back, what a shame. Do me a favor, little Asmodeus, don’t insult me like this again. I am a King, and you will remember that. I might have to pay you another visit and take your heart with me next time to make sure you’re aware of that.”
He didn’t give Asmo time to answer, as his grip loosened and you were back. He saw you stumbling, shook out of his own thoughts and reached to catch you. He knew that this curse was an issue, but he didn’t understand just how serious this was, how serious it had gotten so quickly. The thought of Sukuna didn’t scare him, but the promise of him coming back just for him caused some worry. He wasn’t the weakest, but he didn’t want to hurt you! As much as he couldn’t stand his new found scorn of Sukuna, it wasn’t enough for him to take the chance of injuring you
You didn’t strike fear in him, rather the opposite. To see someone he has grown to care about be the one to try and bring his demise was...saddening. He could just feel his heart breaking at the notion. And if this experience taught him one thing is to be more understanding of what you’re going through
You remembered bits and pieces of the incident, and whenever you asked Asmo about it, he would divulge a tad in what happened, but wouldn’t go into too much detail. He didn’t want you blaming yourself, and he didn’t want you to distance yourself from him either. You already proven yourself of formindable you are ever since you gotten down here, and Asmo wasn’t going to let some jealous wannabe demon get in the way of that!
So no more talk of the thing, and whenever it did want to make an unsuspecting visit, Asmo would be ready. The thing was immune to most curses, but that didn’t mean that he couldn’t be charmed to some extent, right?

Beelzebub
Is very sympathetic of your ordeal
Has mad respect for you eating that finger though, even he doesn’t think that he would eat that
Maybe with some sauces and some Hellroast he might
Is another brother that tries to keep an eye on you. If this Sukuna really is as dangerous as you make him out to be, then he would make sure to be prepared if things went south
Beel’s motto: stay ready you ain’t gotta get ready
Will want you to practice your moves with him. Beel’s pretty powerful, and on muscles alone is one of the strongest brothers. He wants to make sure that you can recognize your full potential, and to always do your best. Expect to be in the gym or the HoL’s backyard working out and training majority of the week
Is thoroughly impressed with your cursed techniques
Beel doesn’t understand that while yes, you have a whole curse residing in you, doesn’t make you less of a human. He forgets that you still have some limitations, and you have to remind him at least twice a week. You gotten more powerful yes, but you still weren’t at Beel’s level
“You can do it MC! Don’t give up!”
“Beel this is over 500 pounds...are you forgetting that I’m still HUMAN-”
But you can never stay mad at him, he’s just too sweet and he means well. He genuinely wants you safe and prepared if anything happens with Sukuna, and if getting you buffed up makes him feel somewhat at ease, then you’ll deal with it
Shares his food with you sometimes. He makes sure that you eat properly too, so no skipping out on meals!
Great listener! Whether you’re complaining about class, talking about a new restaurant you’re interested in (he’s definitely tuned in), or venting about Sukuna, he’s all ears. Even gives you advice if you ask for it or if you really need it
Has encountered Sukuna while he took over your body once, and let me tell you, he was not happy at all
Beel is one of the brothers that are in touch with his emotions; he doesn’t really fly off the handle into a rage unless someone has done something to his family or if he’s being denied food. But now that you’re family and vulnerable not only to other demons but to this curse inhabiting your body, he wasn’t taking any chances
He made sure to be very clear when talking with Sukuna. He wouldn’t stand for anything happening to you, and he made sure that the curse would wish he stayed scattered if that boundary was crossed
Beel is a very protective big brother that’s constantly looking out for you all the time. Even if you feel like that you need to bare this burden on your own, he makes sure that you never feel alone.
He already lost Lilith, and he doesn’t want to lose you too. He won’t mess up this time
Belphegor
See, he knew that there was something wrong with humans, and you were living proof of that
How can you trust humans not knowing if they have another creature living within them?!
Whatever, he’s too sleepy to even care about it
And you weren’t one of the worst so...he guesses that you’re tolerable, but don’t push it!
In the beginning, he thought it was easy to manipulate you, but he could just sense that something wasn’t right with you (and no, it wasn’t because you were just human). He would hear you talking aloud to yourself, except that you were...responding to yourself too?
He thought you finally cracked up lmao
He brought it up as a joke once, but the way you reacted was tense and...ashamed? Oh, he just hit a gold mine. This could make things much more interesting. You shared a little bit of your story with this so called “King of Curses”, but he was smart enough to make a plan off of the information. Maybe he could take advantage of Sukuna like he is of you. Kill two birds with one stone
Well his plan backfired swiftly. After he was freed from the attic and went straight in for the kill, things went array. His hands were wrapped around your neck, he could-should see the life leaving your eyes, but instead he was met with Sukuna’s gaze. Belphie thought he planned this right, he made sure that he didn’t give you enough time to manifest him or to use your curse techniques, so how was this-
“You think I don’t recognize the look of bloodlust, you spoiled child? You were foolish enough to believe that you could get rid of me this easily like the brat?!”, and he was sent flying across the room. How was this happening, this wasn’t suppose to happen!-
“As much as I would like to see them die, they’re useful to me for the time being. Once they are of no use anymore, the only one who will be relishing in their demise is me. They’ll be dying by my hand, not by some weakened child.”
Those words still resonated with him still to this day. Honestly, the whole incident did. No matter how many times he tried to convince himself that you forgiven him and want to build a real bond together, his mind refused to erase that horrid memory, and he deserved it. When Belphie remembers back to that day, he remembers the horrified and heart breaking looks on his brothers’ faces, the way that your eyes show how betrayed and petrified, and how you were gasping out begging him to stop, before he comes out and puts everyone in danger
He felt disgusting, guilty, mortified, regretful, a disappointment. Those feelings only escalated after having them explain the truth to him, both about yourself and being a descendent of his dead sister. He could see how much you touched his family, and you extended that kindness to him too, and he just exploited it
He stayed far away from you for a very long time. He didn’t try to approach you at all, only staying in the planetarium or even the attic, to avoid crossing paths with you. He didn’t deserve to make a connection with you like his older brothers, as much as he wanted to. He was remorseful, it wasn’t because of the whole Lilith revelation, but because you really didn’t deserve that happening to you
You made the first move to make amends, to have a fresh start, and he couldn’t have been more grateful, albeit nervous. He was so terrified of messing things up again, but you were there to help keep him grounded. “I won’t lie to say that what you did was okay, but I’m willing to move on from it. You aren’t completely forgiven, but we can work towards fixing things, together.”
Belphie was shaken by Sukuna’s words, but he wasn’t necessarily scared of him. In fact, he would personally find a way to cast him out of your body and destroy him permanently as the perfect apology and thank you gift; the thank you for reuniting him with his family, and for helping them develop healthy relationships with one another. They weren’t as separate as before, and it made him feel so warm every time he thought about it
Not that he would ever say that to anyone
You both spent time together either napping or plotting for future LYS (Lucifer You Suck) pranks. And since Belphie is pretty good with magic himself, he would be teaching you some new spells or curses that you could use to protect yourself, even against the curse inside you
Belphie will make sure to not make another huge mistake when it comes to you ever again. He’ll have his little slip ups, but you were never put into harms way because of them. He doesn’t want to sabatoge this bond, and he wants you to truly be happy spending time with him. He’s not the greatest role model (obviously) and may be tight lipped about how he feels most of the time, but he really does have your best interests at heart
