#and his name is hercules

[half-bakedboy]

Number 2 from the 50 cliché tropes and prompts

Your shirt/jumper was in the laundry pile and I couldn't help but steal it

Buck never understood why he had lost so many sweatshirts and button-downs to past girlfriends. Nine times out of ten, they didn't even remotely fit their figure and they were only worn in the comfort of Buck's home anyways. 

Then he started staying over Tommy's house more and more. He'd always come prepared–an overnight bag filled with an extra LAFD shirt, a pair of jeans, a pair of chinos, and two shirts, one with a collar and one without–just in case he needed to rush out in the morning. 

This morning, he isn’t quite as prepared as he wishes he had been. Tommy’s in the shower after sleepily kissing Buck good morning and Buck promised he’d run Hercules–Tommy’s ten-year-old retired racing greyhound–outside before Tommy dropped Buck off at work. Thunder crashes outside and rain pounds on the roof, and Buck didn’t even think to bring a jacket. 

He looks around the bedroom closet, careful not to invade the private space too much, but he doesn’t see anything that might help. He knows there’s an umbrella waiting beside the door, but he’s already shivering from the chill sneaking in through the closed windows and Buck knows he’ll need something to protect his skin. 

Out of the corner of his eye, he sees a pullover laid neatly on top of the laundry pile. It’s similar to his LAFD one, but a lighter blue that matches Tommy’s on-duty uniform. It won’t keep him dry, but it’ll keep him warm and keep the water off of his skin which is all he has time to care about. He snatches it up and shouts to Tommy that he’s taking the dog outside even though he’s not sure he’s heard. 

Before he gets too far, Buck pauses to get the pullover on. The first thing he notices is how much bigger it is on him. He’s not a small guy by any means, and he’s not much smaller than Tommy–at least he thinks–but there’s so much extra fabric that he has to bundle it up at his waist. He can also tell that the back doesn’t stretch taut against his shoulder blades and that the neckline slouches a little in the front. 

It’s strange to wear something so unfit for him, but at the same time, Buck can’t help but feel giddy. He glances at himself in the mirror and feels small, but not in the way he usually does. It doesn’t make him feel inconsequential or overlooked, but like he’s protected and well-loved. It stirs inside of his stomach until the joy begins to bubble in his chest. 

He notices that Tommy’s name is embroidered just over his heart, and he brings his fingers there to trace over the lettering. It takes everything in him not to whisper his name combined with Tommy’s last and he wonders if this was how his old girlfriends felt when they stole his LAFD shirts that had his name brazen on the back. 

Where he expected to be a bit embarrassed at the claiming nature of it all, he can’t help but feel… powerful. Yeah, there’s something powerful about wearing someone else's name, like he’s screaming to the world that Tommy is off-limits because he’s Buck’s. 

He’s Buck’s. 

He’s too busy thinking about what exactly that means for him to hear the bathroom door open and a freshly showered and shaved Tommy emerge. Another figure beside Buck’s reflection startles him but Tommy’s reassuring hands slide around his waist. It’s strange how normal it feels to have strong, long arms wrapped around him and a broad chest waiting to hold him up as he leans back against it. 

“You’re wet,” Buck says, feeling the dampness on Tommy’s unclothed chest. He’s in sweatpants like he’s ready to lounge around for the day, but the bare skin of his upper body is clearly on display where Buck’s body isn’t hiding it. He wants to pull away just so he can take another peek. 

Tommy doesn’t seem to notice nor care that Buck is analyzing them because he’s too busy doing the same. There’s something in his eyes, though, that sends an eruption of warmth to Buck’s face. Tommy tugs at the extra fabric at Buck’s waist like he’s having the same realization as Buck did, and then he slides one hand up Buck’s chest to trace his name. He whispers each letter like a secret into Buck’s ear, piercing eyes never leaving Buck’s in the mirror. 

Buck shivers, pressing back against Tommy and leaning his head back so that it plops on Tommy’s shoulder comfortably. Tommy finishes his name before dragging a finger to the neckline of the pullover and letting it hang there like a weight that keeps Buck grounded.

“You’re wearing my jumper,” Tommy points out like he doesn’t already know. Buck suddenly feels anxious, like he’s made a horrible mistake, and stands back up straight. He turns to look at Tommy as he speaks. 

“Is that okay? I didn’t bring a jacket so I figured—” 

Tommy kisses him before he can finish, and Buck can only hope it becomes a pattern. 

It’s just as soft as their first kiss and every kiss they’ve shared since then, but it grows in passion second by second. Tommy is gripping the fabric at Buck’s waist like he’s deciding whether he wants to pull it over Buck’s head or leave it on his forever. Buck holds his naked shoulders, palms sliding down the hard planes of his chest then his abs, before sliding underneath the waistband of his sweatpants. 

When a cold nose hits his hand, Buck jumps back, out of breath and startled. Hercules is staring up at them like he’s let them have their fun and he’s done waiting to go outside. Tommy swipes at his face as he chuckles and Buck leans down to pat Herc’s head. 

“I’m sorry, Buddy. Am I stealing all of your dad’s attention?” Buck coos, and he can almost hear Tommy’s good-natured eye roll. 

“Well, if Evan here is done distracting me, I’m sure he’d be more than happy to take you outside, huh?” 

“Oh, if Evan is done distracting you? Like you didn’t just walk out of the shower half-naked and damp and looking like you wanted to drop to your kn–” Buck inhales deeply when Tommy glances down then back up and raises his eyebrows. “Alright, I’m out of here. Be right back,” he promises, pressing one last kiss to Tommy’s reddened lips. 

“Mhm,” Tommy hums, watching him start to walk away. 

“Do you want your pullover back?” Buck asks, because he figures that’s what he would’ve wanted to be asked. 

“As far as I’m concerned, it’s yours now.”

It sounds a lot like I’m yours now, but Buck doesn’t dare ask. Instead, he takes Hercules out, ignoring the storm rumbling above him, and strokes his thumb distractingly against Tommy’s name over his heart. He guesses he’s Tommy’s now, too.

season three of poirot starts with him coming out of store selling "perfumes for distinguished gentlemen" and then he and hastings go to a flower show where a pink rose has been named after poirot.

inspector japp is there (?) and says, "i'm surprised you're not a pennyaster, poirot, instead of a hybrid tea; their smell is much stronger." which: japp, who knew

also at one point poirot is taking too long in the bathroom and miss lemon suggests that maybe he's dying his hair. "why would he dye his hair?" asks hastings. "he's a man." and the look she gives him…!

also aLSO hastings has terrible hayfever, so poirot brings miss lemon (!!) along on the case with him, this episode has everything

#poirot #hercule poirot #don't name a rose after poirot he has clearly never grown a thing in his life

IDK why anyone ever bothers to write a high school AU when Hercules: the Animated Series (1998) already exists

#never understood the appeal of a high school AU to begin with… #ooh let’s take these flavorful characters but strip away their magic powers/things being set in SPACE and give them insignificant drama #when Herc & his school friends are taking a tour of the olive factory hosted by Pimtentocles… #Icarus: ooooooooh you’re scared of the pimentos… a thousand little red eyes that never blink #the cop is named CHIPacles ffs it’s brilliant #Herc: hey Tempest (his Amazon classmate)… wanna go out for lunch sometime? #Tempest: I only eat what I’ve slaughtered with my bare hands 😤 #Herc: …we’ll go dutch #Hercules #Disney’s Hercules #Hercules TAS #Hercules the animated series #personal #rant in tags

Thank God Laffy Taffy introduced himself as "Lafayette" in "Aaron Burr, sir". Because imagine how tf would be if he said his full name like the others.

Lafayette: Oui oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de La Fayette!!

Laurens:

Mulligan:

Burr:

Hamilton:

The whole bar:

Lafayette: ... The Lancelot of... the revolutionary set...?

Mulligan: Is it my turn now or what?

#hamilton the musical #hamilton #Lafayette #marie joseph paul yves roch gilbert du motier marquis de lafayette #i always wanted to say his full name lol #like how tf do you spell that #alexander hamilton #aaron burr #john laurens #hercules mulligan #hamilsquad #hamilton incorrect quotes

Diversity win: the thief who stole every piece of religious art in your town and his equally-criminal dad are both bisexual.

#i mean technically only dadbeau is canonically confirmed as mlm #but like...we've all known hercule was THE most bi to ever be bisexual since *at least * 'the pentient man' #honestly marianne always seemed wlw to me as well #clearly the flambeau family motto is 'be gay; do crime' #honestly what confuses me most is like...is flamby still french or what? #cause his dad seemed pretty british to me but there's always mombeau #i'm assuming flamby took her maiden name instead of his dad's due to his anger at being abandoned by him #but yeah #you will pry canonically french disaster bisexual hercule flambeau from my cold dead hands #flamby being french and doing gratuitously french things in a gratuitously french way is my k*nk and i will not let canon take it from me #father brown #father brown spoilers #bbc father brown spoilers #father brown s11 spoilers #hercule flambeau #fr brown spoilers

Fic idea that lives rent free in my brain but I'll probably never write all of.

A flu starts going around the apartment. To quarantine the kid that get sick, they go to the new Olympus place with their mentors.

Cute fluff and comfort.

Archie runs around trying to help take care of everyone because he can't get sick and now all of his friends are down and out. At one point he brings Atlanta her favorite ice cream and Neil complains about not getting anything. Archie rolls his eyes but brings him some sherbet next time.

Hercules tells them stories to pass the time, Ares is awkward and so bad at this, but somehow unlocks his inner dad and is all, "Are you too hot? Too cold? Stop eating ice cream it will only make you feel worse- oh, it makes you happy? Well, I guess it can't be that bad for you." ect.

Apollo, Chiron, and Hermes make the best medicine so it's not serious.

But then it gets serious.

Archie starts to show some mild symptoms. The medicine stops working. Odie won't wake up.

They aren't sick, they're cursed.

Cue Archie and half the mentor gods/goddesses going on a quest to undue the damage while the other half stay with the kids who just keep getting sicker.

Hurt/Comfort and suspense.

Sat with my dad and watching him explain some of the most horrific, grisly, life-threatening injuries a cyclist had gotten with the calmest look on his face

#'Oh hey! Where's ___? Isn't he meant to be in this one?' #proceeds to give me the most indetail description of every injury the guy got like he was there #is this a cyclist dad thing?? Along with him somehow remembering every cyclists name but not my friend's?? #'Yep...a punctured lung...three broken ribs…lost one of his eyes...brain damage. The usual.' #and I'm just sat there like 😟 #get's worse when he can't find a word in English and we're trying to figure out what it is so we're mumbling to eachother in French -> #about how he's either broken his leg or punctured his pancreas or something #they're always going through one of Hercules' ten labours I swear #doing anything BUT cycling #mel's thoughts

Me watching Disney's Hercules not so subtly refraining from telling you EVERYTHING that's historically inaccurate with the film

#like did u know that hercules didnt turn down immortality for his gf?? (that was actually percy jackson) #in actuality hera made him go mad (bcus she wasnt his actual mother) which caused hercules (well heracles since thats the greek version bcus #hera was so mad that zeus has another affair hercules had to be named after her hercules is the roman version) #to kill megara which is why he did the 9 labours #and then hercules was made into an immortal god afterwards since before he just was a demigod since his mother was a mortal and not hera #and pegasus wasnt created by zeus he was the son of medusa and poseidon who was born when perseus killed medusa #and the titans arent just weird elements and the reason hercules did these labours was bcus of punishment #but anyway i could go on #the music is so good tho in that movie i love i wont say im in love #hercules #disney hercules #heracles #disney #greek mythology

[crowshoots]

yall sorry i keep posting about pjo but im on my reread and i only just realized that each book is pretty much themed around a certain greek hero and his quest ...

#book 1 is perseus; book 2 is odysseus; book 3 is hercules; book 4 is theseus... #like ofc you can blend up their tasks a little bit but it became SO apparent to me during titans curse #but like. over half of hercules' tasks were a big obstacle in titans curse #and then in sea of monsters... running into circe and poly. i dont remember how to spell his name #the cyclops LOL

PAIN AND PANIC + CARRYING EACH OTHER

(Don't tag as ship)

#🌠 #Disney #Hercules 1997 #Hercules: The Animated Series #Screencap Post #Pain #Panic #I find it so funny how often Panic is the one carrying his big brother figure when he gets frightened... #... compared to the other way around - especially considering HE’S the one named “Panic”. HE should technically be... #... the one jumping into PAIN’S arms when he gets frightened. But hey - I guess that’s good ol’ irony for you. #Also I don’t care about the “romantic implications” of the 5th image. Icarus literally shot them with one of Cupid’s arrows... #... to distract them from firing the loathe arrows so that doesn’t count. #Plus it was outright stated in a previous episode that love arrows wear off after a certain period of time sooooo yeah. #Anyway these two are besties with a sibling-like bond - brothers through the blood of the covenant rather than... #... the water of the womb. I refuse to see them as anything else.

#miguel o’hara #miguel stone #roberta mendez #secret wars 2099 #can we talk about the similarities: doesnt like his last name for example. still hates tyler stone #does care on some level about those close to him #and he took her seriously because he does go talk to hercules

[katnissgirlsmakedo]

once upon a time is fun because all these ancient fairytales literally happened 30 years ago. snow white? yeah she was doing all that about 30 years ago. hercules? fought cerberus around 1970. king arthur pulled excalibur from the stone AFTER the release of disney’s the sword in the stone. mulan saved china (china? magic china? unclear actually) about 35 years ago. and it slaps and makes total sense don’t even worry about it

#this is NOT one of those insanely irritating ‘omg ouat made NO sense’ posts. it does make sense. i’m saying it’s funny #it makes sense because it’s about the fucking. metanarrative you cunts. #beth.txt #i can’t wait for tee to see them do frozen it’s so funny it’s so ridiculous. david was bffs with kristoff for some reason. #how did they even meet? it doesn’t even matter! because you learn that information and then immediately presented with evil little bo peep #and then rumplestiltskin (btw tee idk if you’re aware but you are in fact spelling his name wrong <3 it doesn’t matter tho keep doing what #you’re doing) he gets anna to turn the sorcerer’s apprentice (NOT dave) into a RAT for no reason… and that’s the plot of a whole episode #and then there’s LILY. you’re gonna go crazy for lily… i LOVED lily when season four was airing #unfortunately they do forget about her immediately after the season ends and she is not so much as mentioned until the SERIES FINALE #but like it’s fine because immediately after season four you get to go to camelot and meet all those cunts #especially nimue who literally slays so hard…. the og girlboss of the enchanted forest fr #and then of course emma and killian do orpheus and eurydice and it slays #and then season six comes and you get to meet my buddy gideon!!!!! #and if you don’t like gideon i will probably have to disown you but don’t worry about it you’ll like him <3 #anyway. what was the point of this post. #oh yeah i just love how hercules was a teenager at the same time as snow white and it was like during the 1970s. camp! #🍎

I was already considering the possibility of Mrs Devine/Flambeau, and then I realized their ship name could be "devine fire" and any lingering doubt I had been harboring immediately evaporated.

#i mean the ideal scenario is still a flamby/mrs d/ lady f/monty polycule but i'm willing to settle for less #father brown #i mean i was mainly thinking about mrs d having a similar personality to felicia while being even more dramatic and chaotic #and a little less refined #but her acting experience could greatly help flamby with his heists and disguises #also like her car is named 'hercules'; he's named 'hercule' #what more do you want #i mean felicia/flambeau still has my heart but this is already a pretty good alternative if i can't have it #hercule flambeau #mrs devine #we need to find out how they are spelling isabel/isabelle/isobel #i know I watched a few eps with the subtitles but i can't remember

Random Thought of a Small Theory;

What if Persephone in the Universe of "Hercules" could just be only referred to her own Roman Name (that being "Proserpina") somewhere that she would only be called in Disney's universe, just like how Dionysus, Eros, and even friggin' Heracles are only called by their Roman Names instead of their OG Greek Names?

#indie text #disney #just a small thought #cause I've watched every single episode of the hercules show #and I've never heard any other character (especially demeter) mentoning hades' wife's name #and I just remembered how Persephone was actually called by her roman name in the Silly Symphony short #so what if disney was originally go for the roman name to mix it up like have Hades (Pluto) still be with Proserpina (Persephone)???? #still can't help but be reminded by that SOTR scenario of Poseidon still being with his wife (just by the roman version “salacia”) #greek mythology #hercules
