#and then it inevitably turns into a 'protecting a lil kid from having to go through the sort of shit that i went thru' fantasy

I wanna ask, from a parents perspective is having kids young worth it?? I turn 25 soon and have been thinking about having kids before 30, it started recently as all my friends have kids already and it feels like I'm missing out on something. I have a great partner and a few cats but we both still feel that....void i guess?? Do you wish you had your daughter at an older age??
okay baby listen everyone is different and parenthood might work for you and it might not but I'm gonna talk to you right now about all of the reasons why I regret not waiting. this will be kinda long.
I was 23 when I got pregnant, 24 when my daughter was born. it was not planned and I barely knew the guy. like he was literally just a sneaky link and we both have a breeding kink so 1+1 = 3 in this case. I was already knocked up by our 3rd date (yes it's that bad but hey I fucked around and found out)
I was in a bad place when I met him (sad girl with daddy issues whose daddy just died that's a whole different side story tbh it never ends) and I deserved better but I was honestly just happy that someone was giving me attention. plus his dick was huge and he knew how to use it so it was like "maybe I can change him. maybe he'll realize I'm worth loving." again daddy issues.
now you're probably wondering why I'm oversharing all of this but it's gonna make sense by the time we come back full circle. I promise.
things went south after i got pregnant and in order to protect myself and my wee lil dew drop, I ghosted his ass.
so now pregnancy alone is its own little monster. my body changed a lot. I gained so much fkn weight that I didn't realize that I wasn't as big as i thought I was. my face shape is different (lowkey to the point where I don't even look at old photos because it will ruin my entire day and I will cry) my bladder is fucked. I went from a c cup to a triple d cup so bra shopping is hell, my back hurts most days from the sheer weight of having big tiddies and I truly hate them
now as far everything else, your time will never be yours again. any parent worth their salt is gonna catch some hell. I have anxiety so a lot of my time is spent wondering if I'm going to outlive her. my dad used to say that even when your kids grow up, you'll be wondering if something bad might happen to them that you could've prevented.
now I have a daughter and men are scary enough so like... yeah.
now I had my daughter in the middle of the pandemic. that paired with my anxiety, trauma from what her father put us both through, and my poor decision to use her as comfort instead of going to therapy made her clingy.
your mental health matters so much and of course none of us are perfect and mental health shouldn't completely dictate whether or not you become a parent but you need to be self aware and honest with yourself or you'll fuck that kid up and fuck yourself over. my daughter is clingy as fuck and even now, if I can get a half hour alone, I'm lucky.
I have adhd and I'm bad with time and organization so keeping on top of the house and getting to places on time is hard as hell. I also lost my social skills during the pandemic so if you struggle around people, remember you're gonna have to socialize your kid and for me, that's hard. don't like doctors appointments? You're gonna have to deal with it. don't like going out? get used to it. even down to small talk with random fkn people who think your kid is cute- get ready. I literally had a whole ass chat with some random lady on the train the other day because she thought my daughter was cute so we chatted about her grandkids. random chats with random people are inevitable and will happen sometimes multiple times a fkn day.
now as far as having a second parent, I can't tell you about that. I absolutely do wish I had her father around but I also wish I could trust him enough to share this beautiful chaos. since I can't, I have to do it alone. I have my village but a village can only do so much and the village can't ever truly fill that void.
now I think communication is important for you and your partner. you both need to do it for you. if you have family pressuring you, ignore them. don't let them pressure you into making such a big and final decision. you're bringing a life into the world, not putting up a Christmas tree.
out of my friend group, only one of my friends has a child and she felt like she was missing out because picture of my daughter gave her baby fever. she also has some regrets.
you and your partner need to really talk about that void you feel because a baby will not fill it. figure out where that emptiness is coming from and work on fixing it because a baby is going to feel great and make you proud and all of that but at the end of the day, that baby is a shitting, burping, farting, helpless little human that has their own destiny. their job isn't to fill that void. their job is to grow and thrive while you pour into them. you'll never fill a void when you're pouring into that child's life.
parenthood is beautiful. hearing my daughter tell me she loves me, cuddling her, hearing her pronounce words wrong, watching her eyes light up over things she likes- the list is infinite. the love is infinite but before you both take that leap, you need make sure you're happy with yourselves, happy with the changes that will come, and ultimately happy with the chaos because even with this long ass tangent I'm going on, there's still so much more beauty and madness and hard times. some days I love being a mom and I couldn't imagine being anything else. some days, I wish I wasn't a mom and I envy parents who just walk out and never look back.
I think I'm learning to just be in each moment but if you need any more help or someone to talk to, I'm here for you. I'm a huge believer that not everyone deserves children and a lot of the time I think I'm one of those people because I'll never be able to look my daughter in her face and honestly tell her that she was planned and that those were happy tears when I found out my pregnancy test was positive. I think I've redeemed myself? who knows maybe not but I feel like Gru and she's my little Agnes.

The Goomba Arc
Super Meme Bootcamp
SMGs 1 and 2 are disappointed to find out that 3 and 4 have been somewhat neglecting their Guardian Training ever since the God Box and decide to put them through a week long crash course with Mario and Lil Coding’s help. Chaos inevitably ensues, and this time it’ll have far reaching consequences
Mario Replaces His Water Heater
Exactly what it sounds like, and for once all hell breaking loose isn’t even his fault.
New Demigod on the Block
There’s a County Fair in town this week, and Mario, SMG3 and Melony all end up deciding to go together. There they meet Franky and a very quiet, seemingly human teenage boy with orange-and-black hair and bright green eyes he insists is his new brother Desmond. Melony and Desmond turn out to get along really well, so the two groups decide to join up and enjoy the fair together. All the while unaware that they’re being watched from the shadows…
As it happens, Desmond has a lot in common with Melony, specifically pre-Zero Melony. He doesn’t really say anything, is curious about and confused by all sorts of relatively mundane things, seems to have Narcolepsy, and is weirdly empathetic towards and protective of sports equipment, of all things. When she decides to address it and figure out who-or what-Desmond really is, their stalker comes out of hiding, revealing himself to be the not-so-Happy Mask Salesman, who’s come to retrieve the masks the two of them are using.
Turns out Desmond was originally Franky’s basketball, and was changed into his current form when one of the Salesman’s masks landed on it after being stolen and lost by the Wario Bros. So the reason he’s acting like Sleepy Toddler Era Melony is because he sort of is Sleepy Toddler Era Melony! The Salesman has been tracking said mask ever since its theft, and this time he’ll stop at nothing to reclaim his property, as evidenced by him actually using one of his precious masks to turn into some giant monster(doesn’t really matter which one) and attack.
That attack is countered by Mario and 3, who’ve jumped in to keep the Salesman busy so Melony and the kids can get to safety, because between Mario initially creating her in Mario’s Home Alone and 3 bringing her to life by coming up with her weirdly elaborate backstory, she’s Kinda-Sorta-Maybe their kid, and like hell they’re gonna let this nutcase take the body and power she worked so hard to be able to call her own.
So now the action’s split between Melony sprinting away from the battle through the fair while carrying Franky(because Toads have no legs) and Desmond(because he’s asleep again), and the battle itself, which is also moving through the fairgrounds and gets progressively more chaotic as time goes on, especially when 3 manages to snag some masks and turn the Salesman’s strategy against him. Interestingly, 3 has some trouble adjusting to the new forms while Mario just sees them as particularly elaborate Power-ups. There’s even one particular moment where Mario puts on the Mario Mask and becomes the godlike Double Mario, though it doesn’t last long.
Eventually they all end up in the middle of a melon growing contest, the Salesman decides “fuck it, if you’re gonna fight fire with fire then so am I!” and sticks Majora’s Mask on the first place winner, a Minecraft melon three times the normal size(grown by Steve, of course). The result doesn’t end up being Majora’s Wrath as usual, but a woman who’s basically “If Melony was a foot taller and cosplaying as a Majora Giginka,” with an out-of-place bright blue hair ribbon and much longer, more yellowish-green hair
As you might expect from someone desperately invoking a demon, the Salesman gets blasted into the middle distance before she zeroes in on her counterpart and starts attacking her with demonic claws and whips, because apparently being created with specific intent lets you skip the Sleepy Toddler phase and get straight to God Powers. So everybody’s trying not to die, except Desmond who’s somehow still asleep, and Mario decides to start to call the evil melon girl “Welony” which she sort of just goes along with for some reason, and eventually she’s got Franky by the throat and is preparing to gut him like a fish, which is when Desmond goes from “I Sleep” to “Real Shit?” and slams her across the area and away from Franky with a shield bash, because now he’s got Galacta Knight’s lance, shield, wings, horns, and eye color because apparently that’s the mask he’s been wearing. And we get to hear his first real line.
“Don’t. Touch. My Brother.”
They manage to drive her off after that, mostly because even though she skipped the Sleepy Toddler personality she still has the Sleepy Toddler low power reserves, and then they go back to enjoying…what’s left of the fair.
Marcy vs. Retail
When Marcy realizes that sticking around the Mushroom Kingdom to harass her brother is going to require funds, she applies at a local supermarket and somehow gets hired. So now Karen is stuck teaching a violent, short-tempered assassin how to be a cashier, hopefully without landing either of them in jail.
Mario Lives in a Society
Alternatively, Mario and Luigi versus the Annoying Homeowner’s Association. Finally, Mario gets to use his obnoxious personality for something productive.
Animation vs. SMG4
Through an incident involving SMG4’s PC, Tari’s arm, and a can of Diet Sprite, most of the crew ends up on Alan Becker’s computer and Crossover Shenanigans ensue.
Detective Luigi; The Case of the Missing Boopkins
Bob and Jubjub are beside themselves with worry when Boopkins doesn’t show up to pick the latter up from the playground, and go to their friends for help. The crew is more than happy to look for him, with Luigi in particular getting Really Into a Noir Detective roleplay so he’ll have the right mindset for mystery solving. But even though they practically turn the Kingdom upside-down and end up solving a few tangentially related mysteries in the process, there’s no sign of their fishy friend anywhere.
Until he shows up on TV.
On every channel.
Standing on a stage next to a Goomba.
The Goomba Who Sold the World
A Flashback episode, detailing who the Goomba was before he got his powers, what he’s been doing in the background of all the episodes, and why Fishy Boopkins is working for him. Then it catches up to the present, where he makes his speech about how he’s going to change the world and what they all need to do to help him. Including catching Mario and the SMGs. The episode ends with the three of them and Lil Coding surrounded by their clearly controlled friends.
Mario: Most Wanted
Thanks mainly to the fact that Melony was immune to The Goomba, the group just barely manages to escape the Showgrounds, only to run into the Military, obviously led by Chris and Swag(it’s deliberately unclear if Swag actually saw the broadcast or if he’s just going “hell yeah Swiggity Swooggity Comin’ for Dat Phat Italian Booty”). Thankfully, they then get picked up by Steve in his farm truck, which also has SMGs 1 and 2. And Marcy, who apparently doesn’t watch TV and only heard the broadcast on the radio, which had no effect since the User has to be seen for Manual Override to work. The group works together to flee the city, including one terrifying scene where Joe Motherfucking Boopkins is after them!
A “Perfect” World
An episode with barely any Mario, or even jokes, in it, showcasing the bleak, cookie-cutter world that The Goomba seems to think will make everyone happy, whether they want it to or not. It also shows Boopkins’ current horrible situation as The Goomba’s assistant, and his gradually deteriorating mind and body.
Mario Plays Minecraft Mods in an Undisclosed Location(ft. Steve)
This is a terrible idea, but SMG4 argues that with things as they are now the world needs Memes more than ever, and besides, it’s something to distract their two known troublemakers while the others are shoring up their defenses.
Welcome to the Resistance
Bad news; despite their best efforts, somebody managed to find the group. Good news; the people who found them are on their side. As it turns out, Professor E. Gadd’s eyesight is so bad that the Manual Override couldn’t trigger even with his glasses mostly correcting things. So he did what any sensible Mad Scientist would do under these circumstances and went out to find other people not affected. The results:
-Karen, who was making dinner, heard the kind of shit The Goomba was spewing and went out to change the channel back to something decent, and was smart enough not to look at the TV when she saw what it was doing to her kittens.
-Franky, who has similar eye problems to the Professor.
-Desmond, who just slept through the whole thing.
-Kaizo, who has never listened unquestioningly to an authority figure in his life and isn’t about to start now.(yes, he managed to beat mind control through sheer force of delinquency.)
-And Hal Monitor, who actually was affected, but went through a hard reboot when one of The Goomba’s instructions would’ve made him Break The Law.
E. Gadd then got to work on a way to block the Override for the members of the team who weren’t immune, using Hal as a willing test subject since he had a reliable un-brainwashing method built in, and through trial and error managed to invent Anti-Hypno Shades(which use the same model as the Octo Shades from Splatoon 2). Meanwhile, SMG4 has his own contribution; he’s managed to get in contact with the Stick guys from Alan’s computer, bolstering their numbers even more since the five of them have the same Outside Entity Immunity as Steve. So now that the full resistance is assembled, it’s time to make a plan.
Meanwhile, in Adminspace
Aka the reason why the Hologram Trio hasn’t been doing anything about this mess; they have, it’s just that what they’re doing involves Domain and Emulator doing a Deep Dive into the game’s Code to figure out what the hell happened, how to fix it, and how to prevent it from happening again, while Forum’s trying to keep the Higher-Ups from doing something drastic. It’s…mostly going well?
Stormin’ the Castle
The Plan is deceptively simple. The Sticks, an army of assorted Minecraft Mobs, Kaizo and Desmond will cause as much mayhem and damage as possible in the city as a distraction, while the rest of the resistance(minus E. Gadd and Franky, who are acting as mission control) sneaks into the Showgrounds Castle, which The Goomba has repurposed as his base of operations. The inside team will find The Goomba and pin him down long enough for Melony, 3 and/or Lil Coding(the three teammates best at code manipulation) to deactivate Manual Override and revoke his Command privileges, hopefully all without getting spotted. Unfortunately plans rarely survive the first phase, or rather the corn maze, which is apparently now a thing that surrounds the castle.
As you might expect, this means they have to deal with Rob in full Lord of Corn mode, as well as the rest of their friends, before they can reach the main event. And when they finally do fight their way to The Goomba, he’s ready for them, and in his arrogance challenges them to a type of War they’re more familiar with…
WOTFI 20??
The challenges are standard WOTFI fair, aside from any of them involving Boopkins who is extremely Out Of It thanks to his dehydration and more severe brainwashing. As usual, it’s the Rap Battle that’s the true main event. Turns out that Marcy and Hal can sing pretty damn well. And when it’s coming down to the wire and nearly everyone’s pinned down by The Goomba’s borrowed might, it’s Steve of all characters who turns out as the MVP, finally, after over a decade of silence, going into his settings and turning on Voice Chat. The result is lyrics so fire that they change the genre of the song, as well as giving the expected second wind that allows the hacker trio and hologram trio to finally depower The Goomba and free everyone. They’d probably have ended up stomping him right then and there, but Hal’s in the group so Due Process must be followed lest they anger him.
After that, we get the standard sendoff scenes. Recovery, reunions, rebuilding, parting of ways, Marcy insists that she’s still the group’s enemy so long as Bob isn’t in the clan and 3 kindly doesn’t call her out on the same bullshit he used to spew after every team up.
And Welony might still be out there, but The Goomba Who Sold the World is powerless once again, and he’s going to be in prison for a long, long time.

So like, before I look this up I wanna make a post about this thought I had and really dive into the science and ethics. Can humans breed across species? Can we fertilize animal eggs with human sperm? Can animal sperm fertilize human eggs? If this is the case, which animals? Which traits would be kept between the two? Assuming it’s a quadrupedal mammal would the child be quadrupedal as well? Would enough traits even be there to complete a full being? For instance, if there were a trait that an animal had that a human didn’t and vice versa would the child simply not have them or have an undeveloped version of one? If that’s the case that likely makes them non-viable. But now let’s just assume we get a viable baby cross-species lil guy. Now is time for the ethics. Do we raise this child? How do we raise the child? Do we try to integrate the kid into human society or train it to be like the animal it was birthed from? Would this depend on how sentient it appeared to be to us, or is there inherent human value to this half-human life that we would try to preserve? If we integrate this kid into human society how do we treat cross-species racism (I mean it’s inevitable, there’s literally no shot society will simply be like “oh yeah this half-human half-animal is actually so based and chill if we can’t even get along with other 100% humans with slightly different shades of skin color)? In nature will other creatures of the same animal species notice that this child is off and reject them from their herd? If it were rejected by nature, then how would we accommodate this kid in human society? I sincerely hope that we do not capitalize on this kid human zoo style. I already am a bit iffy about zoos sometimes (as long as it’s about preservation and they take care of their animals well and stuff like that then it’s not a problem, but we also know about sea world and stuff so like… yeah.) but to simply use this defiance of nature to make a profit out of its suffering feels so cruel and dark, and I’d hope that even capitalism wouldn’t sink to those depths. I’d also hope that the kid wouldn’t be on the government hit list. If the government was trying to take this out then you better believe I’m ET-ing that lil guy. Either way, I also ultimately think that while it’s definitely necessary to research the first occurrence of a cross-species half-human, I also do not want to just… turn this lil guy into a lab rat. It’s gotta be humane, can’t just lock him in a steel cage and run experiments behind one-way glass yknow? I also hope the animal aspects do not give them superhuman abilities, solely for the reason I am afraid that they will be co-opted as a weapon if that is the case. With all these negatives you’d think it would be best to just put this kid down at birth and I am going to disagree personally because I think the life created, while entirely unnatural and literally insane, is fucking awesome and is worth protecting. Anyways, time to do my research

they really trained me like a fucking dog
#my post#suggestion#what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck#I didn't know hand signals was a thing they used for dog training#never seen it outside of special ed til the video I just watched#they rly did treat me like an animal huh. what the fuck.#hand signals for stop talking sit stay still point your body toward the person youre talking to#as if the watching me when I talked to people and then later telling me how much I fucked up wasn't enough#jfc i think im actually a bit angry about this#I can put up with a lot but being treated like an animal is smth I thought I'd never put up with. and now I'm realizing it *happened*.#how fucked up do you have to be to treat a kid like that and think it's okay. what the hell#wow#w o w#after all that shit i was always like 'well it could have been worse‚ at least they treated me like a human not a pet' HAH#this does make the thing I wrote a while ago make sense#the one where one of my ocs gets called a dog by their abuser and in response they threaten to rip his throat out#i dont have violent revenge fantasies i just project onto my ocs and give them trauma actually worth being violent about#occasionally do have revenge fantasies but they're more like. publicly yelling at her abt how terrible what she did was#and then it inevitably turns into a 'protecting a lil kid from having to go through the sort of shit that i went thru' fantasy#ngl i couldn't care less about the ppl who hurt me. I just want to make the things they did stop being done#protect other kids like me from jt

The Gang Plays Dungeons and Dragons
so my silly little brain loves to just take a group of characters and go “what if they played DnD together?” and that is exactly what I’ve done here with the characters from Always Sunny. Might turn this into a fic but idk yet 
Charlie  - was the one who suggested playing it because he happened to discover it one day and as the funky lil creative he is, he's prepared a homebrew campaign that is absolutely nuts and doesn't always make sense - as he can barely read he hasn't exactly got the best grasp on the rules. He might go and find some videos to explain it better to him but he also does have a shit attention span so he probably gets a little bit bored - basically he found out about a game for adults where you can acceptably play make believe like a kid and really liked the idea of it - a somewhat fair DM but gets frustrated when the others inevitably deviate from the plot a lot, like I feel like he also threatens to kill people's characters if they continue to completely ruin stuff - really works hard on doing different character voices and describing different characters and places, even down to having props, costume parts, maps etc - draws everyone’s characters 
Mac  - starts out complaining that he "doesn't want to play some shitty nerd game" but then gets shown the barbarian class and all the weapons his character could use and then he gets fully into it - briefly thinks about being a monk instead but gets very put off when reading about Ki and just doesn't understand it at all - builds a Dragonborn or Half Orc barbarian beefcake, his highest stats are strength and dexterity, and he has weapons that use a d10 or a d12 for damage - he never really gets into the roleplay aspect and gets kinda bored when there hasn't been any combat for a while which means that he often starts combat himself, like they're all yelling at him not to and he just attacks anyway and rolls his dice and then Charlie just yells like "OKAY FINE ROLL INITIATIVE" - constantly tries to do cool stunts (you know he’s physically demonstrating them too the best he can) and gets very mad when his dice roll low, and so he probably flips the table at least once every session - doesn't ask to roll for intimidation (or any other skill but he uses intimidation way more than the others) he just does it anyway and announces it - Mac: I rolled a 12 so I intimidate the guard with my big muscles and he cowers before me Charlie: nO dude that’s not how it works, I decide whether he’s intimidated by you aaand *rolls dice* he’s not  Mac: WHAT??? That’s bullshit Charlie you KNOW how big my character’s muscles are! *proceeds to flex irl* 
Dennis  - also "doesn't want to play some shitty nerd game" and takes more convincing than Mac, but eventually what sways him over is the fact that his character can seduce as many people as he wants, and he probably sees some raunchy artwork of a tiefling woman and decides that he'll play - Aasimar Bard that has a very high charisma stat and is quite possibly the horniest bard you have ever seen, although he's not seducing dragons and monsters because he "has standards" - uses 'vicious mockery' constantly and comes up with the most incredible insults, and often threatens to use it on his party members  - never gives inspiration dice to the others (except maybe to Mac on occasion) - probably a bit of a rules lawyer but only when it benefits him or ruins someone else - surprises himself a little bit and the others when he ends up getting very into the roleplay part of the game, oftentimes completely forgetting that he's just effectively flirting with Charlie in a wig - therefore gets Very into character and ends up becoming weirdly attached to and protective of his character so gets genuinely upset when his character is near death “heal ME! I’m clearly the best member of the party!” - very detailed and descriptive roleplay, sometimes too descriptive 
Dee  - also also "doesn't want to play some shitty nerd game" but particularly when Mac and Dennis get roped into it she doesn't want to get left out and joins anyway, plus she very quickly realises that it's a perfect opportunity to demonstrate her acting skills - therefore very much enjoys the roleplay aspect and often gets very intense which the others (except Dennis) aren't quite sure what to do with since they're just goofing around for the most part - would argue with Dennis about being a bard but eventually she gets bullied into settles on being a Tiefling Sorcerer because it "seems pretty cool" - the others joke about how she should be playing an Aarakocra though, "oh wow Dee look! They based an entire race on you!" - argues with Charlie A Lot about various different things that she supposedly can and can't do (tbf they all do but she is The Worst) - has an incredibly long and fleshed out backstory written down for her character and she keeps asking Charlie when he’s going to bring it up and use it in the plot of the campaign  - not so interested in combat since she can never quite get her head around the magic system but she does laugh at and berate the others about not being able to solve 'simple' puzzles
Frank  - has absolutely no idea what DnD is or what he's doing but he's playing just for Charlie and because Charlie was so enthusiastic about it - when making a character he probably asks stuff like "so which class has the most sex appeal?" / "Which one of these will get me to bang the most fantasy broads?", which inevitably means he gets involved in the ‘Who Gets To Be The Bard’ argument with Dennis and Dee but backs out very quickly because honestly, he's not That invested - I would say he gets 'lumped with the healer role' because of this but you just KNOW that the gang has absolutely no idea how to build a good, co-operative party and therefore has the most chaotic and messy party you've ever seen - ends up being a High Elf (so he can be "tall and sexy") Rogue so he can be crafty and steal a bunch of money from people, which also includes his fellow players and they get very mad about it - Mac: hey you can't steal from me! I attack him with my greataxe *rolls dice* Charlie: no Mac he rolled a 15 whereas you rolled a 2 your character didn't notice him steal from you Mac: but I just watched him say he stole from me! Charlie: YOU did but your character DIDN'T! Dennis: Mac buddy he's right you just didn't roll well enough! Frank: *cackling* I just stole all of your money! DEAL WITH IT! Mac: *standing up* WELL I ROLLED WELL ENOUGH TO HIT HIM! I GOT A 19! Charlie: *overlapping* YOU DON’T HIT SHIT! Dennis: *overlapping* METAGAMING! THAT'S METAGAMING YOU CAN'T DO THAT!

Memory II// Sam Wilson x Desi!Reader Headcanons
Tumblr media
Summary: things you remember about your lover (your pov)
part 1 (sam's pov) masterlist
_____________________________________________
You remember his smiles. You know that his happiest smile is the one without teeth, that his excited one is all white with the cute gap. That he doesn't quite smile but smirks when he's sad and wants to reassure you. He smiles and raises an eye brow when he's proud of the ones he loves.
You remember his shoulders. You know that wrapping your arms around them will inevitably lead to a dance and that they're the perfect leverage for when you kiss his forehead on your tippy toes. You know that when you wind a single arm around his shoulders from behind he'll hold your arm and bring it down for a kiss. You know that he loves giving the kids piggy back rides and that he loves when you massage the soreness away from where his shield straps rest for hours at a time.
You remember the things you do that turn him on. It's when you wear his clothes and he doesn't care how you look in them, whether they hug your tummy or fall off your shoulders. He loves when you rap along to dirty lyrics like it's a nursery rhyme. He loves when you ask him to button or tie your blouse or pin up the pallu to your shoulder. He loves the way you look when you've just woken up.
You remember his eyes. That they widen the same when he's excited and when he sees you all dressed up (they may be connected). You remember how they narrow when he's angry, but especially when he's disappointed in the world he's committed to protect. You know that they shut tight but they still let his tears fall. You remember how devilish they look when he feasting on you, when he's thrusting up into you. You remember how soft they get when he sees you with the kids.
You remember his cooking. You know that when you've fought with each other, he'll be the one cooking for the both of you. That he'll pour his whole apology into it because even though your favorite dish doesn't take too long or too much effort to make, it makes you really happy. You know that he'll add extra milk to your chai because that's how your grandma used to make it. You know he learns how to cook recipes from your family so you can have a piece of home with you no matter where you are.
You know his nods. He'll nod quickly once from across the room if a bootlicking politician tries to get him to endorse them, an sos of sorts. He'll nod twice, slowly, with a impressed gaze when he sees you in his favorite dress. A curt nod to tell you he needs space, if you ask him if he's okay. A side to side no before he breaks down and buries himself in you, curving and moulding till he's a part of you and the universe doesn't exist anymore.
You know him. You remember all he's loved and lost. He's the best parts of you and you, of him. That's enough to have achieved in a lifetime, you think.
_____________________________________________
A/n: Part 2 from your pov, I hope you liked it! Please reblog, comment and like-keeps me going. Love y'all!

save no matter what.
so this is going to ultimately be a post about Deku. however, if you’ll be so kind as to indulge me, I would like to start things off by making a point about Bakugou. specifically, I’d like to point out that back in the day before this kid got Character Development no Jutsu’d, people weren’t always so inclined to view his attitude towards winning in the best light. which is a nice way of saying that he came off as unhealthily obsessed, not to mention more than a little unhinged.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
sorry for the image spam btw, I just think they’re funny. he’s so demented lmao. KILL DIE CRUSH.
anyway so we’re gonna do the rest of this below a cut before it gets long. but I promise it really is a Deku post lol. don’t let the pre-readmore stuff fool you. I PROMISE THERE IS A POINT, AND WE WILL GET TO IT.
anyway! so yeah, we really didn’t have the best impression of Bakugou’s whole winning fixation at the beginning there. and I mean, it’s not like we had the best impression of Bakugou himself at the start of things either. we were already primed from the very first chapter to see this kid as an adversary to Izuku. the story goes out of its way to paint him in pretty much the worst light possible. which is why what happens next is so interesting.
because one might see all this and think, “holy heck, this kid is off the shits, somebody needs to set him straight pronto and get it into his head that winning isn’t everything.” because that’s almost the natural conclusion to draw. “look at this kid, he doesn’t care about helping other people at all, all he cares about is winning, someone needs to come along and show him that he’s got it backwards.”
except that’s not what happens, is it? because this is where, much to my delight, Horikoshi came along and started subverting expectations. because not only is Katsuki not rebuked for being so obsessed with winning -- it’s pretty much the exact opposite.
Tumblr media
the one and only time Deku ever straight up hands Katsuki’s ass to him is when he says he doesn’t want to win. Deku is IMMEDIATELY all, “THE FUCK KIND OF BULLSHIT DID I JUST HEAR OUT OF YOUR TRASH MOUTH,” and that’s when he sets him straight.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the important people in Katsuki’s life never tell him, “hey you need to cool it with the whole winning thing.” All Might and Aizawa never scold him for it, or tell him that he shouldn’t try with everything he has to win, or that wanting to win is a bad thing. on the contrary, they both commend him for it. and ultimately, he’s told by All Might that this desire is actually one of the two fundamental qualities that every great hero needs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he completely turns the whole thing on its head. not only is it not a bad thing, it’s actually crucial. essential. because what the desire to win really is, at its core, is tenacity. it’s the fiercest kind of determination. it’s not something he should be ashamed of; it’s something that sets him apart, something that makes him worthy. he is someone who refuses to back down no matter what. refuses to give up, no matter what. and this quality, which is initially misunderstood by some to the point where even the villains mistakenly take him for one of their own in the making, is eventually validated to the fullest degree by the person that Katsuki looks up to the most. his desire to win goes from being this awkward “son wtf are you doing” thing to being one of the core philosophies of the series. and ever since then, we pretty much don’t question it.
so why do I bring this up now? well, the answer to that can basically be summed up in one word.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“parallels.”
so here’s the thing. there’s been a lot of talk lately about Deku’s ridiculous, reckless, and absurdly self-destructive desire to save others while having little to no regard for himself. currently he’s lying in a hospital bed, having broken approximately 218 out of the 206 bones in his little hero body (yes, somewhere along the way he found an additional dozen bones to break). it is worrying. it is Concerning. and it’s raised a lot of questions, such as “???” and “wtf is this idiot doing.”
and a lot of people have been pretty critical of him! this is, of course, an ongoing thing with this child, and people have been giving him grief over it going as far back as chapter 6.
Tumblr media
while others have been bothered by it going even further back than that.
Tumblr media
and I’ve seen these sentiments being echoed pretty frequently in the fandom as well. and there are basically two talking points that I want to address here. the first is the idea that Deku’s aggressive brand of selflessness stems from an inherent lack of self-worth. in other words, because he prioritizes other people’s safety and well-being above his own, and is willing to go to such drastic lengths to save them, there’s this feeling that he doesn’t value himself enough, that he must not care about himself.
but I don’t think that’s quite it. let’s go back to those parallels first, though. let’s take another look at Kacchan.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
what I mainly want to call attention to is the intensity here. again, it’s something that at first strikes most readers as being absurdly over the top. the truth is, I think a lot of people simply can’t relate to it. Katsuki cares about winning with a ferocity and a fervor that most people, for better or worse, simply don’t have. I certainly don’t, lol.
but he does. to him it’s not a shallow, superficial thing at all. it’s important to him, perhaps the most important thing. I think we often talk about it in terms of it being a desire, but imo a more accurate way to define it is not as a want, but as a need. in other words, it’s the opposite of the question “what is it this character wants” (i.e. “what is it they can’t live without”)? instead, it’s a question of “what is it they don’t want” (i.e. “what is it they can’t live with”)?
and in Katsuki’s case, the thing he can’t live with is feeling like he hasn’t tried his absolute best. he needs to give his all in everything he does. he wants to win, but winning just on its own is not enough.
Tumblr media
it has to be earned. he has to prove to himself and to everyone else that he deserves it. anything less than that is unacceptable. anything less than that, and he can’t be at ease. he can’t be settled. he can’t rest. and so he puts everything he has into winning, even if it means going to extremes. because it’s that important to him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it’s something that’s at times alarming and even disturbing for others to witness. but nonetheless, it’s a part of who he is, and at the end of the day his teachers accept that, and the story acknowledges that it’s his greatest strength.
so now, to finally bring this back around to Deku, this is what I keep seeing in his character as well. only in his case, the thing he can’t live with is knowing that he didn’t do everything he possibly could to save someone. or to put it another way, Deku, at his core, is someone who cannot rest until he knows that everyone is safe. simple as that. it’s not just a desire to protect people; it’s a need. he needs to know that everyone is safe and protected. otherwise he can’t be at ease. it’s no different from how normal, everyday people aren’t able to feel at ease unless they know that they are safe and that their loved ones are safe. it’s just that in Deku’s case, this same fundamental need extends to everyone, not just himself and his friends and family. everyone. he can’t live with himself knowing that someone was in trouble, and he had the ability to do something to help, but didn’t. and so, if you literally can’t live with not doing something, you basically have no choice but to do it.
and this is what in my opinion defines Deku’s character. Kacchan, in trying to understand it, noted that Deku doesn’t seem to take himself into account. but I think OFA Prime summed it up a little more accurately. “he rages for the sake of others. for them, he does his best until he can do no more. this young man is possessed by a drive to save others that eclipses all common understanding.”
so yeah. it’s not that he doesn’t care about himself at all, it’s that he cares about others even more. he has that same intensity and ferocity towards saving people that Katsuki has towards winning. and just as it was difficult at first for fans to understand Katsuki’s feelings, it’s hard to fathom the sheer depth of that “save everyone” feeling that compels Deku to break his own body in that pursuit. it’s scary, not to mention extremely destructive and dangerous. and so really, it was almost inevitable that there would be some backlash.
but just like Katsuki’s desire to win was ultimately validated in the end, I think Deku’s desire to save others will be as well. in fact it already is being validated, for starters by the other denizens of OFA, led by Lil Bro as mentioned above. let’s go back for a moment to that same scene.
Tumblr media
here we get a huge hint that “Deku gets taken down a notch and chewed out and scolded for his recklessness” is not, in fact, the direction that the story is going in. because in general, when the main villain starts mocking the hero and saying that they’ve done something wrong, that’s a very good sign that said hero is actually on the exact right track. like, no offense, but as far as character critiques go, AFO is probably the least qualified person in the entire manga to start offering those up lol. so yeah. if AFO is denouncing Deku for something, and OFA Prime is praising him for that exact same thing, I think it’s safe to say that means he is in fact doing something very, very right.
“okay but makeste, he nearly got himself killed and broke all of his arms AND legs and is now lying in a fucking coma,” you say, gesturing emphatically to the last page of chapter 298. “so I mean, that’s all well and good that Wonder Boy has the best of intentions and all that, but at the end of the day he’s only one kid. he literally can’t save everyone, and if he pulls one or two more stunts like this, he’s going to get himself killed.”
and okay, but this here is the other talking point that I wanted to address. because it’s true, Deku does need to learn a specific lesson here. but that lesson is NOT that he can’t save everyone. this is a superhero story, guys -- “you can’t save everyone” is never going to be the underlying message, ever. it’s the OPPOSITE of the message. Deku is the hero because he tries to save everyone. because he doesn’t give up on saving people no matter what. that is literally the core of the story. it has been since the very first chapter.
so then what is it that Deku actually needs to learn here? well, once again, it all comes back to those parallels.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
btw, I really just love how he’s carrying Katsuki there lol. he’s just so done with him.
but anyway. so, the final exam arc. Katsuki initially wants to win at all costs -- but there’s a hitch. because even though he wants to win, he refuses to do so while working with Deku. enter Deku’s left hook, and one impromptu Rival Encouragement Speech later, our boy has thankfully come to his senses.
but here’s the point -- the lesson here wasn’t “you can’t always win.” rather, the lesson that Katsuki needed to learn was that you can’t always win alone.
yeah. so now you can see what I’m getting at here.
Tumblr media
“...on your own.”
that’s the key. this is the one and only thing that Deku actually needs to get into his head. wanting to save everyone is fine! his will to save others has never been a weakness -- it’s been the most admirable thing about him from day one. it’s what makes him strong. it’s why All Might chose him. it’s why OFA has chosen him. it’s what sets him apart, and I firmly believe it’s what will ultimately help him save the day and defeat AFO as well. because what other character would look at Shigaraki Tomura, the person who just impaled his friend and destroyed an entire city, and instinctively reach out a hand to try and save him? and if you don’t think that’s going to wind up being key to the final battle, you and I have very different ideas about this series’ endgame.
Deku’s determination to save everyone isn’t arrogance or futility. it is and always has been his greatest strength. but what he’s missing now, what he needs to learn, is simply to trust. y’all might have seen that theory about the Fourth’s quirk, and why All Might was so hesitant to tell Deku about it. basically, the theory (which is based on an attempted translation of the crossed-out parts of All Might’s OFA notebook) goes that the Spidey Sense was so overwhelming that the Fourth -- whose cause of death was one of the things crossed out -- eventually couldn’t bear it, and went to live alone in the middle of the woods somewhere. and possibly wound up killing himself?? all of which is just speculation right now of course. but it makes sense. and it would certainly explain why All Might, being all too aware of Deku’s self-destructive tendencies, would keep that from him.
but if this is the case, that means it’s clear that the Fourth’s solution didn’t work. “give up and accept that you can’t save everyone” clearly is NOT the answer to be had here.
the answer is trust. trust that his fellow heroes have his back. trust that they’ll be able to help him reach the people he’s not able to reach on his own. trust that they can work together to save everyone. that he doesn’t have to rest the entire world on his shoulders alone.
it’s the one lesson that All Might, his predecessor and his teacher, never learned himself until it was too late. but of course, All Might never had a prickly and determined rival who was ready to step in and deal out some tough love if need be. a rival who, perhaps, just might soon get a chance to repay an old favor.
Tumblr media
“I don’t wanna hear you say you can’t save someone.”
I’m just saying. just as Deku has been watching Katsuki all this time, and admiring his determination to win, and emulating it himself, so has Katsuki recently begun to emulate Deku’s determination to save others. we’ve seen it not just in his recent act of self-sacrifice, but even in little things like his habits and tricks of speech. just like Katsuki is Deku’s image of victory, Deku is becoming Katsuki’s image of saving others.
and so I’ll bet you anything that if Deku ever starts to doubt himself, or starts feeling like his dream and desires are futile, Kacchan will be there to set him straight with a good old fashioned Rival Encouragement Speech of his own. possibly with his own left hook to match, though his left shoulder is currently out of sorts atm so he might need to modify that approach a little bit. but the point is, he’ll be there. and he will not allow Deku to give up on himself. he will be there to remind him that he doesn’t have to face this alone.
so yeah! finally managed to wrap up my giant Deku meta which I’ve been working on for ages and rewritten like fifteen times lmao. just in time for this to be relevant for all of a day, probably, depending on what happens once chapter 279 drops lol. but yeah. tl;dr, local boy tries to do too much, but his heart is in the right place, and hopefully all he really needs is a good pep talk from his tsundere bff to set him to rights again. r.i.p. to the Fourth, but he’s different.

*kicks down the door* YOUR GLUSKIN AS FATHER HEADCANNONS HAND EM OVER!
(VIOLENTLY TRIES TO PUT THE DOOR BACK ON) YOU FUCKING GOT IT SWEETHEART
Raising a Child with Eddie Gluskin
Anybody who's anybody knows that Eddie had some rather toxic parental figures (father specifically, I don't remember how much of his mother was mentioned). He's had it ingrained into him that he needs a wife, and then kids, and then he'll be as happy as can be.
So I mean depending on how much you've worked with him to get these views gone, he might be different. He'll likely be a very protective father, finding issues in anyone but immediate family being within touch distance of his child. But to be fair, that goes for you, his s/o, as well.
Who knows how how the kid arrived -- it'll obviously change depending on you and your anatomy and personal views regarding child bearing, whether you adopt, find some random urchin, whatever. You have a child now, congratulations.
Please. Do not raise. A child. In Mount Massive. Please. I mean they'd be relatively safer under Eddie's influence over the variants, but no one is truly safe there and no child, or anyone really, should have to deal with that.
So say, maybe, post asylum business, maybe you managed to get Eddie out of there and get him the help he so deserves and he's semi functional as a member of society now.
I imagine he'd want a perfect little house with a white picket fence. He'll demand a tree in the garden when you're property searching and if you ask why, he'll smile and tell you to think of the beautiful children you will inevitably have.
Listen, he spoils those kids rotten. Any child that is biologically his or not, as long as he's the designated care-takimg father, he will fucking dote on them. What they want, they get. He devotes so much time to them. It's probably because he doesn't want to turn out like his father, but really he just... The that they love him, unconditionally, scars and all, just makes him so proud. It makes him weak in the heart, sis.
He may attempt to force gender roles on your kids, I'm sorry. Please be patient with him, consider how he was raised, and gently try and teach him that there's more to it than how he himself was raised. He will listen to you, especially if you are the other parent in the relationship.
But on that note, you have a kid that wants to wear dresses? Well. They better be fucking prepared. PREPARED TO BE THE BEST DRESSED CHILD OF THE CENTURY, THAT IS. Eddie loves to spend hours at a sewing machine, and he will outfit your kids to perfection. His favourite thing is making dresses, but he'll also sew all kinds of things to suit your kids needs.
Which means you never have to buy halloween costumes ever again
Okay, but picture this. Eddie's reclining by the fire. He's fallen asleep and his tie is crinkled. Your child is curled up on his lap, head pressed into the crook of his neck. You whisper his name to see if he's completely asleep and he simply smiles, tells you to shush, ans kisses the kid on the top of the head.
Eddie sucks at sports you heard it from me first your kid is practing baseball or something with him and they throw the ball and it bonks him on the head so hard he gets knocked out and wakes with a horrific fear of balls
You keep coming home to see that Eddie is attempting to teach the child to ballroom dance and if the kid complains he's just like "YOU'LL NEED THIS TO WOO YOUR TRUE LOVE, AS I DID MINE"
I just imagined Eddie having a lil fake tea party with the kid. Several little kid chairs, he's on one, the kids on another, three teddy bears on other ones. You peek into the bedroom and see him dramatically recounting some fake gossip to one of the Teddy bears, and he's wearing a feather boa, with an empty plastic tea cup in his hand, while your child is fucking crying laughter at him.
Look its because he says go big or go home when u parent ok let him be dramatic with his kids they love him

nothing you can do  — kuroo tetsurou
Tumblr media
✎ gender. neutral ✎ contains. I mean, angst lol. unrequited love, childhood friends to,,,, unedited (so expect lots of grammar mistakes) ✎ wc. 1.3k
✎ summary. it was supposed to be childhood friends to lovers, right? so why is it that you now have to move on?
✎ ameris’ notes. based off a lil scenario from 🍒 baby! <3 (sorry lmao i’m reorganizing this to make it pretty!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kuroo Tetsurou wasn’t what everyone actually knew him to be. To everyone else, he was charismatic, a scheming bastard, a somewhat respectable volleyball captain, and a science nerd with crazy charms that could get people to just instantly like him.
He’s good at making connections that way.
But to you, you knew him as that shy little kid that you grew up with. A shy little kid who would follow you and Kenma around. His father wasn’t around much, if at all, his mother nonexistent, and his grandparents would give him the type of doting all grandparents do. He didn’t have any siblings either.
Which was probably why Kuroo would always hang out with you when he’d get the slightest bit bored with playing video games all the time with Kenma (this was before Kuroo got Kenma to play volleyball with him).
Now he’s someone who’s easy to talk to. Kuroo could literally pick up a conversation with someone on the train and actually hold a conversation with them.
There were always some days where you’d see the same little kid though. Sometimes he’s hesitant when it came to leading the volleyball club. A side Kuroo didn’t want to ever show his teammates; he was the captain after all, he had to keep the image that he was an unmoving pillar. Especially if he wanted to make the Battle at the Trash Heap happen.
You got to see all sides of Kuroo and grow up beside him unlike anyone else (well, maybe except Kenma)
Maybe that’s one of the reasons why you fell in love with him.
Love. Maybe that’s too strong of a word. But that’s what you felt it was.
You don’t know how it happened. You just knew that the strong platonic feelings you had for him growing up eventually evolved into something new. You remembered when you were in middle school when a classmate asked if you liked Kuroo or Kenma and all you could do in response was gag.
But now in your third year of high school as you sat with Kuroo and the rest of the volleyball club at lunch you realized it was something different.
“You like him, don’t you?” Yaku asked one day, munching on the little cute octopus sausages he stole out of your bento. Kuroo, was luckily out of earshot talking to the others.
You felt heat rise up your neck and before you could reply to the libero, he laughed.
“Don’t worry, I won’t say anything but I think you should tell him,” Yaku turned to look at Kuroo where your gaze already was. Except, you could only give him a deadpan look.
“Really? And ruin our friendship?” You scoffed, taking away your bento from him so he couldn’t steal anymore. “No thanks.”
“I’m just saying, he looks at you the same way you look at him!” Yaku said smugly. “Besides, the other day Lev was mentioning how pretty you are and Kuroo told him to stay away from you.”
A glimmer of hope entered your chest at the thought of Kuroo reciprocating your feelings. But, that couldn’t be possible, right? Kuroo was just protective over you, you are close friends.
“What’s the worse that can happen, he says ‘no’ and you guys continue being friends. And, if he really ends a friendship over something like that he’s a dumbass and it means you deserve better.”
Luckily for you, the worst that did happen was Kuroo Tetsurou did not feel the same way and you continued being friends.
But at this point, fuck. At this point, you wish he broke everything off.
You wish he’d be an asshole and break whatever friendship you had with him. Because now seeing him with his girlfriend, months later, it hurt so so much more.
Because every goddamn day since you confessed to him, you wished Kuroo would show up outside your window with flowers and your favorite snacks and tell you that he lied, that he did like you back but he was just too stupid to see it. Or that he was too scared.
Instead, he got himself a girlfriend. Someone you couldn’t even bring yourself to hate because she was just too nice.
“You and Tetsu have been friends since elementary, right?” She asked you, pulling her knees up to her chest as she sat beside you. She lay her head against her legs and stared up at you.
“Yeah,” you replied, trying to swallow down that little bit of pain that was lodged in your throat. Kuroo had asked you to stick around with her during practice so that she didn’t feel lonely. And of course, you couldn’t say no to him. Part of you believed it could be so that he could break up with her after practice, then ask you out.
But you knew that wouldn’t happen.
“That’s really cool,” she smiled, staring back at the court to stare at her boyfriend, at your best friend that you have a crush on. “You don’t see much platonic friendships like yours. I thought you guys were dating so I didn’t think I had any chance with Tetsu.”
You gritted your teeth then coughed into your fist and stood up abruptly, “Sorry, I need to use the restroom real quick.”
Staring at yourself in the mirror in the restroom, your eyes being bloodshot red, you came to the conclusion of one thing. If you wanted to be happy again, you’d have to be the one to cut things off with Kuroo. You had to get over him.
It wasn’t too hard to avoid Kuroo. Besides, the school year was ending in a few months. Then you’d be off to university and luckily, you weren’t heading to the same one as him.
Kuroo stared at your back as you walked straight past him, a tick mark appearing on his forehead. His grip on his girlfriend’s hand tightened and she could only glance between the two of you with a confused glance. Kenma, stood off to the side, a small sigh leaving his mouth.
“Do you know why they’ve been avoiding me?” Kuroo asked Kenma. Kenma side-eyed him.
“I think you should know, Kuroo,” Kenma replied, walking off to his own classroom instead. He didn’t like third-wheeling Kuroo and his girlfriend without you.
Kuroo sighed, then looked down at his girlfriend, “I’ll be back, I’m gonna see if they’re alright.” Kuroo kissed the top of her head before letting go of her hand to walk after you.
He knew there was one place you’d be. The one place where you always go to catch a breath of fresh air.
Ironically, it was near a little alleyway of sorts, where a lot of cats always gathered.
And Kuroo was right.
You sat on the ground, petting a few stray cats as you ate your lunch all by your lonesome.
“Why are you avoiding me?” Kuroo asked, straight to the point. He didn’t want to beat around the bush, not with how you’ve been avoiding him for weeks on end. With graduation around the corner, he wanted to spend as much time with the people he loved the most. Even if he didn’t love you in the way you wanted.
You turned your head quickly towards his voice, your eyes wide.
“Tetsurou, hey,” you reply calmly, as calm as you could. It was inevitable that he’d come to find you.
“Why are you avoiding me?” He repeated.
“I-uhm. I’m not,” you replied. “I just need some space from everything. Just a little stressed is all.”
Which wasn’t wrong. And sometimes you would need space from everyone. Maybe not this long but... Hopefully he’d buy it.
“That’s bullshit, what did I do wrong? And what can I do to fix it?” Kuroo asked, nearly begged as he approached you. Instead, you stood up quickly, the cats already scuttering away, and backed away from him. Kuroo stopped, instead opting to wait for a reply.
All you could do was smile and glance off to the side. A light spring breeze flowing through this odd alleyway.
“Nothing, Tetsu, there’s nothing you can do.”

[1] OKAY anon talking about Mc running off before they find out they're innocent. Okay Mc just wanted to cool down so they skip class and leave campus for the day for self care. BUT THEN they get caught up in app conflict bs like they do when game events happen bc its mc. Maybe helping out the outlaws or somethin- Mc sends the summoner group chat the fyi, that they'll be back. But three days later and the teachers are fucking panicking bc of the situation and they don't know shit AND now the-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OKAY ONCE AGAIN I’M GOING A LIL OFF ON THIS BECAUSE THIS IDEA IS JUST 👌👌👌👌👌 so as you can probably tell in some parts I definitely rambled lmao. I do hope I do it justice~!
And for anyone wondering the original request can be found here!
---------------------
Things had gotten too much. You were so fed up with all the stares, all the sympathetic glances burning holes into the back of your head and all of the whispered words of gossip and speculation like you were some hot topic or reckless wild child who couldn’t be trusted. Everyone was acting like you couldn’t see or hear them, which somehow just made it feel even worse; it was driving you up the wall, even with all of your friends standing by your side the moment you were accused it was hard to ignore everything that came with it. You were pissed, hurt, but the betrayal stung the worst out of everything that had happened so far - you’d put your complete trust in your teachers, looking up to them oh so confident that they’d believe and protect you should the need ever arise, because you genuinely believed that they saw the best in you, even in spite of your faults and encounter track record. You guess that just wasn’t the case though, as that encounter in the staff room still makes you feel sick to your stomach, thinking about the way those same teachers you trusted looked at you with pity and still deemed you guilty of something you so viciously denied. 
They still look at you with pity - Mr. Triton and Mr. Jinn don’t even try to hide it, maybe not even realizing that you’re looking at their expressions when they’d tried to start up a conversation with you. It frustrates you, because it feels like they have no right to pity you when they were the ones there in that meeting and they didn’t try to vouch for you. They didn’t even listen when you told them you were innocent! Surely they have enough faith in you to believe in you, right?!...right? Whatever the case the whole situation has you dreading coming into school everyday, and as the days pass you’re more and more convinced that things would be better if you could just get out of going at all - there’s plenty of other things you could be doing where you wouldn’t have eyes watching your every move, nor the weight that comes with them.
You don’t know if it’s luck or sheer irony that the teacher responsible for picking you up from class is late one day, but it’s the final nail in the coffin before you decide ‘fuck it, I’m out of here’ and skip class. For the past few days you’d felt pinned, suffocated with eyes constantly on you from the moment you step onto school grounds to the moment you’re out of sight, which makes it oddly freeing to be able to run around without those disapproving gazes - but you don’t want to waste time and risk getting caught, not when you’re so close to skipping and being free for at least a single day. Consequences be damned, you don’t care anymore. Even though everything is still weighing heavy on your mind stepping out of the grounds feels...liberating, and you only dare a glance back once you’re out of the school gates, catching sight of students still in their classroom completely oblivious that you’ve disappeared from their ranks. Telling the teachers where you were going was the last thing on your mind, but you at least have the foresight to send a message to the Summoner’s group chat before you turn off your phone and bolt from the premises, letting them know that you were going out for a day to clear your head. 
It was only supposed to be that one day, you swear, but things have never really had a penchant for going your way. If you had stayed just a few hours longer you’d have learned about the person clearing your name; you’d have seen the teachers’ mad dash through the school when they’d realized you weren’t in any of your classes; you’d have watched the outroar as the Summoner’s learned of the truth in your stead. But you’d missed it all, and spent the day wandering anywhere and everywhere instead - wherever you could go where you wouldn’t risk running into any faculty you went, stewing in thoughts and trying to forget just about everything that had happened for as long as you could before you were inevitably brought back to the school. 
Only that didn’t happen; you were able to crash at a friend’s house on the first night, called in a favor with a nearby guild for a place to sleep on the second night, and the hours in between were spent either wandering or getting dragged into fights - how ironic that even now you couldn’t avoid getting involved in other people’s problems even if you tried - it was seriously getting old. In the meantime, the Summoners are the only ones who get word about what’s happening, but even then you keep it vague so that you don’t worry them, not to mention you don’t want them to needlessly lie if they get questioned by the teachers concerning your whereabouts. Which is exactly what happens; the teachers are all worrying themselves sick by the time the third day rolls around without hide or hair of you, and it’s clear that there’s regrets voer what had transpired over the whole week. Jinn’s rolling your last encounter over and over in his head, wondering if there was something that he could have said that would have made you decide to stay put - maybe letting you know you had someone on your side - but the what-ifs won’t change the fact that you left. Triton’s still cursing how long it took for the news of your innocence to come to life, the thought of how you must have felt being looked at with such suspicion making guilt crawl up his spine and settle in his mind. And Mononobe doesn’t stop looking for you for a second - even if you scream at him or scold him or ignore him completely he needs to see that you’re okay and doesn’t want your last conversation with him being left on such bad terms. One thing is for certain though; they need to find you, and soon.
Things finally come to a head on the third day. Usually during after school hours you’d try to make yourself scarce in the area, but this time you weren’t so lucky. All too quickly you’re dragged into a spat with someone itching to boost their ego with an app battle, and though it was clear they’re all bark and no bite it’s tedious and you want it over with quickly. You just wish it was that simple, as the moment you ready your sacred artifact, watching your opponents prep to set up a battle zone, two figures block your view, standing almost protectively in front of you as they activate their respective sacred artifacts. You don’t even have to see them to recognize them - Mr. Triton and Mr. Jinn are both loud as they declare their presence, stepping into the fight in your stead. Before this week you would have laughed seeing the two of them standing side by side talking big about protecting you; but now? You feel your heart sink into your stomach - this could not have been the worse time to see them.
Mercifully, the battle staves off the inevitable conversation for a little while longer, as the three of you have to focus back on the fight at hand; your teachers are skilled, or at least driven by something to end the battle, and you aren’t willing to play around just to avoid what comes next, so it isn’t long before the person who challenged you and his friends to all back off, releasing the battle zone as they flee back into the crowds to nurse their mental wounds. You almost want to disappear into those crowds with them before you can get caught again, however the moment you turn you’re immediately accosted by Jinn and Triton, the two teachers fighting over each other to get the most concerned word in - where have you been? Why did you run away? Are you hurt?! Their concern is sincere, you can tell as much from their faces since hiding their emotions isn’t exactly their strong suit. And right over their shoulders you can see Mr. Mononobe too as he approaches to join the three of you, having not been involved in the battle zone for obvious reasons; but the sight of all three of them in the same place reminds you so much of that day you’d been accused and the emotions burn in your throat like poison.
There’s venom laced in your tone as you ask them why they stepped in, effectively silencing the two teachers as they share a brief glance and answer simultaneously. Hearing them talk about teachers protecting their students you have to bite your tongue because surely they know how hypocritical that sounds, right? But they keep talking, rambling on about making sure you’re safe and protecting you when you need it and it’s like a trigger, sending everything frothing to the surface. You laugh, bitter and sarcastic before asking if they’re serious - they've gotta be kidding - but you don’t even give them a chance to respond before your words claw their way out into the open and you just about lose it.
You don’t care about mincing your words as you practically bare your soul, everything that’s been welling up finally boiling over. You yell and scream and shout until your voice is hoarse because you’re so pissed that they have the audacity to talk about protecting you when they couldn’t even protect you from those accusations, from all those people thinking you destroyed something just because you could. They have no fucking right to even consider themselves your protectors when they looked at you with those same eyes full of pity, now turned to guilt in light of the truth that had come far too late, and you’re gonna make damn well that they know that you aren’t someone to be pitied - you’re vindicated, seething, and feeling so betrayed by the few adults that you were so sure that you could trust. But that trust was shattered - and that’s exactly why you left, because why would you want to be surrounded by people who couldn’t trust you?!
The emotion behind your voice is raw, and Jinn, Triton and even Mononobe seem to be at a loss for words - no words of reassurance, no advice, no words of wisdom - and that just twisted the knife in deeper when you’re met with no resistance whatsoever. You honestly don’t know what you expected - some kind of fight or rebuttal would justify these feelings that you have - but when you receive nothing of the sort in response you lose the wind in your sails and you choke on your shouts. Your words fail you, turning into sputtering and sharp gasps when you finally buckle and sink to your knees, wiping uselessly at your face as your eyes burn with the sting of tears - a feeling you’ve gotten so familiar with this past week it makes you loathe the feeling. If you could you’d still be yelling, but you just can’t bring yourself to do it - you’re tired, whittled down to your bare bones and you don’t even have the energy to be angry or care that you’re having what you’re pretty sure is a breakdown that wasn’t in the safety of your dorm room. You want to just curl up and disappear - just for a few days, that would be okay, right? Just until you can feel something in your chest that didn’t hurt like hell. The Summoners would understand, you think, they always did - they’d trusted you at least, when it felt like most didn’t. Why could they have been the ones to swoop in and help you? It’s a silly thought, but you feel like you at least wouldn’t be bawling like you are now if it had been them instead of the teachers; you can just imagine how they must be watching you cry in front of them.
Damn, this whole thing really was just a mess....
A hand touches your arm and another touches your back - you’d kick away if you could, but it’s like the touch saps you of all of your energy. Those hands have no right to be so warm, no right to feel so comforting, and yet they are and you want to cry all over again. You have no idea which teacher is the one who helps you to your feet as all three surround you with growing concern once your sobs filter off into broken sniffles, gaze torn between screwing shut to avoid looking at any of their faces and staring right at them so they can see all the emotions in your eyes that your words have failed to convey. When they talk about bringing you somewhere safe, back to the dorms or to the school to discuss everything that had happened, you’re in the right mind to run away all over again, but you can’t bring yourself to do it. Instead, you allow those hands on your back and shoulder and arm to guide your steps, ignoring the concern and grave expressions that the teachers share as the reality of what’s just transpired sets in. You don’t know what’s coming next, but you honestly don’t think you care anymore - all you can think about is how tired you are of everything, and this was apparently the last straw that you could handle.

Tumblr media
↳ MFEEU! Tae Masterlist

↳ General Masterlist :)
The kids

↳ No children (he’s happy being a godfather!!)
Yoongi
↳ Yoona 
Hoseok
↳ Seojoon 
Namjoon
↳ Namgyu 
Jimin
↳ Jihae 
↳ Jihyun
Taehyung
↳ Haneul 
↳ Haewon
Jungkook
↳ Minho
↳ Mina 
(wow i just realised i gave the rapline all one kid and the maknaes two kids huh)
When they’re born: 
first it’s Kim Haneul 
↳ the next year is Kim Namgyu and Park Jihae
↳ the next year is Park Jihyun and Jeon Minho
↳ the next year Jung Seojoon
↳ the next year Jeon Mina and Kim Haewon
↳ and five years after that... Min Yoona 
Profiles :)
Kim Haneul 
Tumblr media
Tae and his wife’s first child
The eldest of all the mfeeu kids
Very protective of all her younger siblings, especially Haewon 
Minho has a crush on her for the loooongest time (she sees him as an annoying little brother) 
Abuses her privilege as the eldest to get all of her dongsaengs to do whatever she wants (apart from Jihae) 
She inherited her mother’s sincerity and tae’s determination 
Her and Namgyu are like the only responsible ones
Taehyung is very happy leaving the business in her hands once she’s old enough
As she grows older she realises the special feelings she’s always felt towards Jihae are different than how she cares for her sister
She loves Haewon of course, but with Jihae it’s different. She wants to always take care of her, spend every minute with her, kiss her. 
They start dating when Jihae turns 15. both Jimin and Jihyun tell her she better take care of Jihae or else. Haneul has no intention to do anything other than that.
Kim Namgyu
Tumblr media
Namjoon and his darling’s first and only child
Strict with all of his dongsaengs but would let Mina get away with murder
He’d probably help her with it tbh
Haneul’s right hand man, slated to help her with the business once he’s older
He inherited his father’s intellect. He helps all his dongsaengs in their lil homeschool lessons and once he’s finished his work he’ll leave the classroom they have set up and go and sit with his father
(Namjoon is the softest dad ever oh my god 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺)
Namgyu has dimples that pop out every time Mina calls him ‘Namu’ 
Him and Minho have a brotherly relationship. He, along with Jihyun, help Minho to get over Haneul. 
He’s known that he loved Mina since she was 5 and he was 8, but of course he waited until she was 18 because of the age gap between them.
Mina had no such reservations. She asked him to date her when she was 14 and he had to gently turn her down because she was way too young to be dating a 17 year old. 
She would stubbornly ask him every year on her birthday if she was old enough to date him yet, and on her 18th birthday he finally answered with ‘yes’ and kissed her
That was probably the worst day of Jungkook’s life.
Park Jihae
Tumblr media
Jimin and his girlfriend’s first child
Despite being one of the oldest, she is babied by the entire group, ESPECIALLY Haneul
She’s so soft like oml 🥺🥺🥺
she inherited her father’s stature so by the time they’re all teenagers she’s the most smol (along with Mina who’s only an inch taller than her)
(by the time Yoona reaches her teens she’s also taller than Jihae)
Jimin’s little princess
She barely leaves his lap for the first five years of her life
Shes so clingy as well 🥺🥺🥺
She follows Haneul around holding her hand bc she doesn’t want to get lost 
She really likes doing ballet. She tries to teach Haneul but they soon stop bc to put it lightly Haneul is hopeless
She is the softest big sister to Jihyun. 
The only time she gets mad at him is when he sometimes refuses to call her noona 
Once Mina and Haewon are born the trio has been completed
They are the unofficial maknaes of the group, along with Yoona who they treat like their own little dolly
They coordinate their clothes and everything. your squad wishes. 
She’s the most oblivious person though. she doesn’t even realise she’s in love w Haneul until her 15th birthday when Haneul kisses her. and then she’s like oh. oh.
they are the softest girlfriends ever bls i can’t 🥺🥺
Park Jihyun and Jeon Minho
Tumblr media
Jimin’s second child and Jungkook’s first
I put them together bc they’re honestly inseparable 
They’re the troublemakers of the group, rivalled only by Mina and Haewon.
Jihyun was born two months before Minho, he insists that Minho calls him hyung
Minho refuses
Jihyun is the more responsible of the two, but barely. Namgyu’s kind of like their older brother, they both look up to him a lot. 
Seojoon is their dongsaeng who they lovingly bully
Minho has a massive crush on Haneul. 
He isn’t yandere for her, he just has a thing for noonas like father like son 
At one point he tries to have a rivalry with Jihae because Haneul likes her so much but it doesn’t work bc Jihae is so sweet she doesn’t even realise what he’s trying to do and also Jihyun is super protective of his older sister and he nips it in the bud
After that he resolves to get over Haneul because he doesn’t want anything to come in between him and Jihyun. 
Jihyun and Minho are definitely soulmates. Hoseok is convinced they will date at some point. There’s a betting pool which Jungkook refuses to enter bc he thinks its wrong to bet on his sons love life. Jimin on the other hand has lost almost a million won because he keeps betting that they’ll announce that they’re dating soon. 
Jung Seojoon
Tumblr media
Hoseok’s pride and joy
He’s so similar to his daddy guys it’s adorable 🥺
He has so much energy all the time, it is common to see his little head popping over the edge of Hoseok’s desk as he jumps around the room
Namgyu loves him but he doesn’t understand him at all
Seojoon loves to play dress up with Mina, Haewon and Jihae
He is not trusted with Yoona bc, though his intentions are absolutely pure, she usually ends up crying 
Always breaking the rules. a loveable rascal we have here. 
He knows when to push boundaries but he’s largely well behaved bc his dad taught him well 🥰🥰 (unlike many of the other fathers who spoil their kids) 
Seojoon knew he loved Haewon since his fourth Christmas. Seojoon was hunting for the presents and when Haewon caught him, she joined him in searching instead of ratting him out.
From that moment on they were partners in crime. 
It was only inevitable they started dating, obvious to literally everyone except Taehyung who refused to believe his daughter was a rule breaker in any shape or form.
Jeon Mina and Kim Haewon
Tumblr media
Jungkook’s and Tae’s youngest girls 🥺
I put them together for the same reason I put Jihyun and Minho together. They’re inseparable 
They were actually born within two days of each other. Haewon was born early and Tae always says it’s because she couldn’t wait to meet her best friend (besides him, of course)
Look Haewon even has his nose mole 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
They rival Jihyun and Minho in terms of general naughtiness 
Seojoon helps them out sometimes, and in that time Mina always giggles at how silly Seojoon and Haewon act around each other
but all Haewon as to do is mention Namgyu and Mina stops making fun of her and starts blushing
Haewon and Mina talk about Seojoon and Namgyu literally all the time
When they’re older they trick their parents saying that Haewon and Mina are hanging out together and Seojoon and Namgyu are hanging out together and then they swap
Namgyu would normally disapprove but it means he gets more time to spend with Mina so he’s not snitching 
Mina is sooo bitter when Haewon starts dating Seojoon bc Namgyu is apparently ‘too old’ for her so she can’t date yet
once Namgyu finally gives in on her 18th birthday and kisses her, she calls Haewon  up screaming with excitement (little does she know Namgyu at that moment is calling Haneul and freaking tf out)
when they get married to their boyfriends they have a joint wedding 🥰🥰 Namgyu was originally against it but Mina gave him her infamous doe eyes which she inherited from her father and he allowed it reluctantly
Min Yoona
Tumblr media
Yoongi’s unplanned but very adored daughter
By the time she’s born, Yoongi is in his mid to late 30s
To be honest, Yoongi had been happy helping to raise his friends kids, i mean they were all practically his godchildren and there wasn’t a week where he wasn’t babysitting at least three of his friends children
But sometimes he would watch Tae teaching Haneul to dance standing on his toes, or see Hoseok playing hide and seek with Seojoon, and he would feel this strange ache in his heart
When they found out Yoongi’s wife was pregnant, they considered not going through with the pregnancy, but ultimately decided against it after one of the members let slip that Yoongi’s wife was pregnant and then all of the kids ran up to Yoongi with eyes as big as dinner plates, asking eagerly if they were going to have another little sister. 
As soon as Yoongi saw Yoona for the first time, he realised how stupid he was for not wanting children earlier. but he was almost grateful that he hadn’t had them earlier, because if he had then they wouldn’t be Yoona. And Yoona is perfect.
She’s babied by the entire group. Mina and Haewon are only five when she’s born and they love playing with her. She’s never left alone for a moment —  like Yoongi feared she would be since all of the other kids were so close in age and Yoona was so much younger. 
All of the children want their chance to play with Yoona and even the members love being able to play with a baby again after their children had outgrown it. 
If Yoona ever tries to start dating… oh boy. 
Tumblr media
just to recap, the couples are...
↳ Kim Haneul and Park Jihae
↳ Kim Namgyu and Jeon Mina
↳ Jung Seojoon and Kim Haewon

RosaPrym and Tulas for the meme?
Ack, sorry for the lateness I saved most of these answers in my drafts but kept forgetting to post 'em after awhile, my bad >>;
💗~(RosaPrym)~💜
Is the most affectionate: Ooh Prym, most definitely~ while Rosie would eventually soften up a bit more after getting comfy in a relationship, she'd still be on the lowkey huffy/uptight side when it comes to showing affection (not that Prym minds, respecting her girls' boundaries and such uwu)
Their most common argument: Early on in their school days they always liked to try to outdo one another in alot of subjects (magic, academics, theater production, etc.), which once they get together would be alot more on the lowkey side given how much they've grown up since then. Regardless they'll still make up pretty fine after awhile though~ 💜
Nicknames for each other: "Rosie", "Rosebud", "Rosie Posie", "Ro", "Princess", "Darling", "Dearest", "Sweet Pea",... yeah there's a whole arsenal of 'em between these gals, lemme tell ya lol
Who initiates kisses: Prym, though if Rosie's feeling especially "bold" enough she'll probably sneak in a quick one before a big mission or something ;p
Who kisses the hardest: Rosabel can't even begin to count the amount of times Prym's lipstick stuck to her mouth right before a big work day xD
Who said I love you first: Surprisingly enough, Rosabel! After years of angsting, lingering on her feelings and just generally missing Prym after she's left for her traveling Mage duties... it wouldn't take much for her to finally blurt out her emotions by the time they'd inevitably reunite
Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times: Sneaky lil lady she is, Prym wouldn't miss the opportunity to liven up the mood via-telling all sorts of dirty jokes between the both of them (especially since Rosie herself has such an adorkable lil laugh on top of that)
Who’s the better cook: Rosabel was never really allowed around the kitchen thanks to her parents (whom always deemed it "too unfitting of a lady" for her to not let other servants cook for her), so Prym would most likely take over cooking duties at first. Rosabel always did want to try it though, especially since she still had memories of her dear Nana cooking the most delectable homecooked meals in her childhood~
Who wakes up to calm the baby: Both girls would take turns, given their natural soft spots for kids (especially Rosie :3)
Their favorite non-sexual activity: Performing in theater, bonding over some old literature, having lil picnic tea parties near the gardens outside, and so on~
1 sad headcanon about this couple: Rosabel often had to fight internally about her own feelings of jealousy and guilt seeing Prym with other love interests (Dantae Litayla in their first year, then Jada Ito in their third year). While not outwardly spiteful towards these pairs, with it combined to what she was dealing with at home... it just made Rosabel close herself off from Prym for awhile to not hurt her feelings (much to Prym's own confusion/worry that she might've done something wrong... as even through all their rivalry, she still considered Rosie a dear friend at-heart :c)
1 sugary-sweet headcanon about this couple: One of Prym's first presents to Rosabel as her girlfriend would be a fancy rose gold bracelet with charms of a rose and moon-shape (to represent them both as a couple :3)
🧡~(TulElas)~💙
Is the most affectionate: Tula's the most fluffy lil bean with practically anybody, including her big huff butt of a boyfriend~ ;p
Their most common argument: Hmmm... they probably wouldn't argue that much on their own tbh (at least not over anything too serious). Moreso its just over matters of Tula wishing Elas would loosen up a bit from having to be so worked-up and responsible over everyone (future king or not)
Nicknames for each other: "Dear", "Darling", "Honey", "Sweetie", "Ellie Bear"
Who initiates kisses: Tula~ 🧡
Who kisses the hardest: Hmmmm, it'd depend but if Elas is feeling confident enough, he's got a good "fiery" side of his own~ ;p
Who said I love you first: Elas, most likely in a heat-of-the-moment thing if he ever sensed Tula in grave danger (despite her insisting she could handle it), so things might just blurt out from there, to both of their own surprise
Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times: Prooobably Tula, but moreso in an "accidental" way that she herself doesn't realize (to his utter frustration lol)
Who’s the better cook: Neither of them have exactly the "best" cooking experience on their own (Tula being a clumsy sweetie and Elas's fire magic reacts a bit too strongly to handle kitchen flames). They could probably make a decent-enough meal if they both worked together though! ^^
Who wakes up to calm the baby: Elas would totally be one to be extra-protective of their baby early-on (having the royal medical team on speed-dial if anything were to come amiss), with Tula being right there to try and reassure him while comforting their lil one that its all okay
Their favorite non-sexual activity: Reading and Writing~ its been one of Elas' past times to vent out some of his stresses through this and Tula's always been a creative one since school, so together they'd probably have alot of fun making up their own lil novel to enjoy themselves uwu
1 sad headcanon about this couple: Knowing his father's unlucky history in love, Elas can't help but wonder sometimes if a similar fate would befall him the more he gets closer to Tula (hence some of his "tenseness" in getting too attached in relationships)
1 sugary-sweet headcanon about this couple: Tula always thought Elas had a cute lil laugh (even if he'd usually be too embarrassed/stiff to show it often), hence why she'd always try to encourage some good humor and wholesomeness whenever they go on a date~😊

Tumblr media
The Spark- Lee Jung Moon (Park Hae Jin)
How long before your feeling would burst out. How long before the ever perceptive Jungmoon would find out that you had feelings for him. You shuddered at the thought of how he’d react. Would he out right reject you? Or would he ignore it altogether? You suspected the latter but then again, you could never be too sure when it came to him. For now, all you could do was keep your mouth shut and pretend like nothing was wrong, like your heart didn’t thunder violently whenever he was in close proximity or how you felt tremors at the off chance of him touching you.
“Y/N,” Detective Oh called you out. “Are you alright? You seem out of it.”
“I hope you aren’t nervous, Y/N-ah.” Un-Cheol spoke up from the seat behind you. “I won’t let you get hurt so don’t worry about it too much kid.”
“Don’t tell me, has the ex-gangster gone soft for lil old me?” You batted your eyes at him.
“Ah it’s not like that.” Un-Cheol quickly denied. “I can’t let a lady get hurt, what would that make me?.”
“Oh yes, forgive me.” You smirked. “You’re quite the moralistic gangster, I forgot.”
He scowled at you, but you knew not to take to heart specially seeing as he practically growled at Tae-soo for snorting at him, not a second later. Un-Cheol acted tough and aggressive but you’d come to realise that he was a soft man with very rigid codes. Not to mention, him, like the rest of the boys, having a soft spot for you, didn’t really hurt.
“You don’t need to worry too much, you just need to go in with Jung Moon, pretend you’re a couple and get a layout of the club. It’s not particularly dangerous and you also have Lee Jung Moon-shi with you so that’s added protection.” Inspector Mi-young briefed again.
It wasn’t like you were afraid of the mission, it was having to be alone with Jung-moon and pretend to be in love with the man you already had a crush on that had your brain overheating. Why were you so stupid? Did you have to fall for a potential serial killer? It’s not like he treated you like glass or anything, nor did he give you any downright preferential treatment. All you wanted to do at the moment was keep your distance from him, without him actually noticing. Of coarse that was easier said then done, with how observant he was but being paired off with him in such a scenario, was less than ideal.
“I’m fine guys.” You spoke offhandedly, waving a hand around. “I’m not particularly nervous or scared, just thinking is all.”
You turned back to the window, staring at the pouring rain, the last time it had rained, you had been hiding from who you assumed were debt collectors. If you had know then, who they really were, you would’ve ended yourself. The worst part was that it wasn’t just one group your father had taken money from, there were multiple. Sooner or later, you would’ve died anyways, if It wasn’t for Lee Jungmoon saving you that fateful night, who knew how long you would’ve lasted.
“Penny for your thoughts Y/N” this time it was Tae-soo who asked, leaning slightly forward, from his seat.
You really didn’t want to share your thoughts at the moment, but it was always like this. None of them ever cared if one of them didn’t say anything or was unusually quite but the moment it was you, they all bombarded you with questions. It was sweet for the most part, but right now, you’d rather keep it to your self.
“I was just thinking about the last time it rained.” You replied vaguely, gesturing around with one hand “and also how the rain isn’t exactly flattering for my dress.“
You were wearing a cream satin dress that ended just a few inches above your knees. You felt pretty enough but the discomfort that came with hardly ever wearing dresses was something you’d rather avoid. Still you had to admit it had been awhile since you had felt or looked this nice. Tae-soo had been a gentleman and handed you his coat to cover your legs while you were in the car but once outside, it would have to go.
You turned around to talk to Tae-soo, your eyes inevitably falling on Jungmoon who say besides you. He was staring at you with an emotion that left your throat dry and heart clenching. His gaze held a unique sort of tension you had never witnessed before. Almost no one else would be able to spot it but after spending time with him, you were able to pick up the minuscule changes that hinted at what the incurious man was actually feeling. You weren’t sure if even Gu-tak could do it as well as you did. Not that you’d ever mention it, but you took great pride in understanding him when no one else did. Jungmoon wasn’t someone who would usually be caught staring, heck you’d never seen him stare at someone unless there was a valid reason behind it. Which probably meant, something was wrong. However you felt as though you couldn’t really ask him what it was at the moment so you settled for giving him a small smile and forcing your attention to Tae-soo and a sulking Un-Cheol. You didn’t turn around for the remainder of the ride, even though you felt Jungmoons stare like a ton of bricks weighing you down but for some reason also making your skin feel alive and electric.
The van pulled up infront of the venue and in no time at all, you had to get down in the rain. You stepped out of the car, predicting an onslaught of pouring droplets to greet you, instead you found a gentle weight on your head and shoulders. Turning around, you saw Jungmoon placing his own jacket on top of you, spreading it slightly wider to secure your entire body.
“For the dress.” A passive Jungmoon commented before leading you inside and away from the remarks he would undoubtedly get, if they had stayed any longer.
Once under the shelter of the entrance, he took off the jacket, jerking it once to get rid of the excess water and placing it over his shoulder casually. You gave yourself a quick once over, seeing that you had managed to save yourself from the rain entirely. The same couldn’t be said about Jungmoon who was droplets dripping from his hair and a soaked shirt. Somehow, he managed to look sexy in that too. Still his hair could use a-bit of work.
You hesitated for a moment but then decided of you were going to pretend to be a couple, might as well go for it. So with steady hand, you reached for his head, he froze, stilling completely, eyes wordlessly on you but he didn’t protest or move away. You took that as a positive sign and softly ruffled his hair, getting rid of the water as best as you could before setting it as best as you could. You ignored his eyes, focusing on his hair.
When you were satisfied, you took a step back, forcing your blush down. You finally met his eyes, saying. “Since we’re acting like a couple, might as well do it right.”
You turned back to the door, missing the flash of disappointment on his face that registered for a barely a second. He didn’t say anything, instead wrapped an arm around your waist, it was your turn to still in surprise.
“Might as well do it right.” The side of mouth tilted upwards.
You smirked at him. “You say that now...”
“Are you underestimating me?” Jungmoon raised his brow.
“I’m challenging you.” You winked, voice already an octave lower.
“I usually win.” He commented, arm tightening around your waist in response.
The two of you had begun heading towards the entrance, the music already audible and clear.
“We’ll see.” You leaned into him.
On the outside you looked calm and confident, even teasing but inside you were a mess. It had taken a lot to make this all seem like a game but you’d already decided that if you looked or appeared too nervous it would not only put the mission in jeopardy but also your own true feelings. You just hoped he couldn’t feel your pounding heartbeat, that wouldn’t do you any good.
The inside was like any fancy club, a flamboyant bar, a reserved section with nice sofas and beautiful women serving drinks to repulsive men and their obnoxious counterparts or other, more unfortunate, women pressed against them. On the other side was a dance floor with tables littering at one end where drunk men and women drank, smoked and indulged in less then decent acts.
“We’ll move to the VIP area right?” You whispered to Jungmoon, who was eyeing the entire area closely.
Jungmoon said nothing, taking you by the waist and leisurely stalked up, handing the man at its entrance the fancy velvet card with VIP embezzled on top. An overkill, in your point of view, but then again, you weren’t running the place. As soon as you stepped in the posh, less crowded zone, you could feel numerous eyes on you, and none of them were particularly appreciated. At least you now knew the dress did it’s job, only perhaps a little too well for your liking.
Jungmoon wasn’t immune to the stares either, he felt them on him but more so on you, that fact alone left him feeling uneasy and dare he say, irritated. Interesting, it had been awhile since he’d felt these particular set of emotions. However, his emotions always did seem jumbled up where you were concerned. He couldn’t quite identify them, as of yet, but he had accepted them and was determined to place them in an appropriate category. You definitely weren’t a stranger, nor were you just an acquaintance or someone he had to protect as a mission. Could he call you a friend? But then the subtle shifts in his own behaviour left him doubting that too. He wasn’t in love with you, he was sure, he wasn’t over his ex-girlfriend, the bullet mark on his body said as much, right? He tried thinking of you in his girlfriends place and a small but convincing part of him said that he’d have taken it for you too. When it came to you, he came up with dead ends. That was perhaps one of the very few things he disliked about you, and that wasn’t your fault either, it was his own.
“Can I get you table” an escort walked up to the two of you. “Or perhaps a private room...”
You smiled at him, ignoring the flush of heat, at the implications. “A table would do, right darling.”
You turned to Jungmoon, your polite smile widening to one that was flirtatious and warm. Jungmoon nodded and gave you a small smirk of his own. “That would be fine.”
You were completely placed at a corner which gave you the entire view of the club and you, specially were more obscure to prying eyes. Jungmoon was nice enough to give you the more hidden spot. Scanning the area carefully, you noted the doors, the staircases and different rooms that were situated across the entire expense. As your eyes roamed the expense, you inscribed what you saw, forming a mental map. The club itself was double storied and you were curious what the top floor held. The only question was, how would you go up undetected?
“Shall we dance?” Jungmoon asked out of the blue, voice light and flirty in a way you had never experienced before. He was acting, you realised with a start, and sure enough you could see two men approaching the table you were occupying.
“I’d love to.” You stood up with a velvety smile, pulling him up with you.
The two of you made your way to the dance floor, trying to avoid the larger crowds and stick to the smaller ones and subsequently towards the staircase leading up to the first floor. You swayed gently to the music, arms around Jungmoons shoulder. It took him a moment to reciprocate the gesture, but he did eventually put his hand on your hips. He was holding you lightly but your skin burned, scorched by his touch alone. You swallowed, trying to keep your emotions and your expressions in check. The chances of someone finding you suspicious or worse, Jungmoon finding you suspicious was something you couldn’t afford. You started by looking at him, and just as you had expected he looked somewhat uncomfortable. Even his movements was stiff and restricted.
“Jungmoon,” you brought his attention to you. “Don’t tell me you’ve never danced with someone before?”
“I’m not the dancing type.” He confessed.
“Never pegged you for one either.” You smiled “but it’s hard to think that you’ve never danced at all.”
He said nothing, just continued to stare at you. You tsked, shaking your head slightly. How could he have never danced, he had a girlfriend didn’t he? Surely they would’ve danced at one point or another? You moved a step closer, decreasing the already minimal gap between the two of you. Automatically you felt his body language change, more alert and strained.
“Just relax.” You whispered softly, trying your best to sound soothing. “It’s nothing really, just follow the rhythm, try loosening up a little.”
Jungmoon stared at you for awhile, before his body relaxed somewhat and he started moving relatively freely. His hold on you became more natural. He was holding you to him now, not just touching you. It felt more comfortable and intimate. You didn’t let your head linger on the feeling too much, wanting your feelings to detach themselves from the current situation.
Instead, you inched towards the staircase, hoping the hoax of immersing yourself in the music was passable. The two of you stayed there for awhile, just afew feet away from your target, unsure how to proceed. Well, you had an idea but there was no way in hell you could actually tell him that. Telling him to make out with you wasn’t something you wanted to do, no matter what the circumstance.
“How do we go up, without somebody noticing us?” You whispered in his ear, not noticing how his back strained at the gesture.
You couldn’t see his face thankfully or else you’d have noticed the way his jaw clenched and eyes struggled to remain open as he felt your hot breath. It was hard enough to have you like this in his arms, body pressed against his own, without loosing his composure. Did you have to make it worse? From the moment he’d seen you in that dress, he had wanted to kiss you. It was strange how he hadn’t realised it until now. How would your lips feel against his? Would they be as soft and as sweet as they look?
Jungmoons mouth opened at his own accord “ Or we could let them notice us...without raising suspicion.”
“How?” You pulled back a little, genuinely curious.
And there it was again, that look in his eyes, the one that made your heart beat faster. It made you nervous about what he had in mind.
“We’ll do something that nearly everyone does here and nobody bats an eye and even if they do, nobody thinks much of it.” He carries on, before pausing to let you absorb what he had planned. “...I’m doing to kiss you now, okay?”
“Sure.” Was all you could come up with, voice small, even to your own ears.
And kiss you he did. With a sudden tug of his arm, you stubbled into his chest. You didn’t have time to collect your bearings before his lips were on yours; urgent and demanding. He kissed you like there was no tomorrow, hands running up and down your back. Without even knowing what was going on, you reacted, kissing him back, gaining momentum quickly. Soon your hand was in his hair and the other one rubbing his shoulder as you opened your mouth at his silent request.
You hasn’t even realised it but Jungmoon was guiding you to the stairs, still kissing you into a frenzy. You had enough awareness to know that this was a tactic but at the moment you couldn’t care less. All you wanted to do was get lost in the feeling of him and what he was doing to you.
Before you knew it, and way before you wanted it to be over, Jungmoon was pull away from and you found yourself at the top floor. You managed to conceal your disappointment and the stab of hurt at the gesture but you couldn’t hide the wave of fluster that came when you looked at Jungmoon. His lips were darker and swollen while his hair was a mess because of you and for the first time you could see so much emotion on his face, he looked like he was physically holding himself back from continuing what he had started.
And you? You were sure you looked the same, if not worse. Jungmoon’s hands had travelled everywhere from your hair to your lower back and arms. You had a feeling that your dress had afew more wrinkles than it had started with you but you couldn’t really say you regretted it, specially seeing as Jungmoon had initiated it and looking at him now, you could see a lot of things in his eyes, but guilt and regret wasn’t one of them.
One thought rang in your otherwise empty head, What we’re you going to do now?

Season 4 episode 4: Mindful Education is the reason why Connie hasn’t shown up in Steven Universe Future.
And when she does it’s just going to be downhill from there for Steven.
Let’s be real, when Connie does eventually show up there are only a few possible outcomes that can occur, knowing what we know now. (As of ep 10 of SUF)
1. Connie will come down to take a break from studying, or just wants to hang out with her best pal and Steven’s heart isn’t going to be in it. He’ll be overthinking the entire time. After everything that’s been going on lately. The last thing he hasn’t messed up is his friendship with Connie. But then that underlining fear of losing her too will begin to creep as they spend the day together. Which will make him anxious as to not let it happen. But overthinking his worries will lead to him wondering if he’s any good for her in the first place. She’s going to leave anyway, like everyone else, why prolong the inevitable. And there’ll be a good chance we see him lash out at her Pink™️ Style unprovoked and uncharacteristically. As his way to distance himself from her. He doesn’t want to get hurt anymore so he’ll do the hurting to protect his already fragile heart.
2. Steven goes full Jasper and spends the entire episode uncomfortably trying to pursway Connie into Fusion. It’ll start small. “We could win that carnival game if we fuse.” “Nah, it’s more fun if we lose together.” “Let’s fuse. Stevonnie would be able to reach that.” “Alri-oh! How about we ask those gems for help?” If he can just get her to fuse with him he can keep her close. She won’t leave.. “let’s find Pearl and we can train as Stevonnie. Don’t want to get complacent.” “I’m pretty sure Pearl is going to be busy all day... we don’t need to fuse for fighting anymore Steven, the war is over. Why are you acting so weird today.” He can’t say it. He can’t admit that he’s so afraid of losing the last bit of normalcy. The one person who hasn’t left him yet. The fear will drive him to do the unspeakable. He’s going to grab her hand and try to force a fusion while anxiously laughing that they’ll have a better time as Stevonnie. In the sudden surprise and discomfort. Connie will say no. Being rejected won’t fly well for Steven and he’ll go Pink™️. I fear Connie may retaliate the only way she knows how. With a slap to the face.
3. Steven will resent Connie for who she’s become. It all starts the same with the episode having them interact for some reason or other. But this time, when he sees her, somethings different. The way she holds her posture, or the way she talks with such confidence. How she enters the room with an aura that reads: “I’ve figured my shit out.” He’s jelous. Her attitude will mimic a softer version of Garnet and Amathyst, she’ll know things she didn’t before but the wisdom will be beyond Stevens comprehension. Which makes sense after everything she and him have been through. But he won’t see it that way. She’s got her life planned out and she knows who she’s going to become. Because that’s how her parents raised her. But Steven is just going to resent her more for being more put together then him. It’ll end with her giving genuine advice on something because she truly cares and Steven will go pink™️ in agrevation. Because how dare she tell him how to live. She has know idea what he’s going through! How can someone his own age possibly know better than him?! Must be so nice to have everything figured out. Get to put on this act of superiority and shove there unwarranted “advice” around like some kinda saint! Hit with all his frustrations, Connie won’t yell back. She won’t counter his arguments. She’ll just wait and listen as the dam that is Stevens mental health opens the flood and he finally pours out everything he’s been feeling that he could never say in front of the Crystal Gems. It’ll end with Connie explaining that she’s just as lost as he is in life but she’s just not letting the fear of failing stop her. How she wakes up in the middle of the night wondering anxiously if she’s made the right choices. But knows she’s got a support system of people she can rely on. “It’s ok to not be ok, remember? Your not alone. You need to believe that Steven. I’m not going anywhere.”
Or 4. They do fuse but it’s not the fun times they’re used to and it’s just a rehash of Mindful Education but with the knob turned up to 10! The entire episode is Connie having to witness Steven forced into confronting everything he’s been worried about. All the anxieties. All the fear. Not being needed. Not living up to standards he’s placed on himself through years of a messed up upbringing. More complicated feeling towards his mother and the anger at the fact he hasn’t figured his shit out on the subject. Feeling inadequate cause he can’t pick a career path to his life. Why is everyone leaving him and why he hates himself for being so selfish. Scared of his own powers and there raw power to hurt people because of course the only birthright he’d be given by his mom would be a negative thing. Because he’s JUST A PLACEHOLDER TO THE REAL THING. HES ONLY HERE SO SHE WOULDNT HAVE TO CLEAN UP THE MESS SHE MADE!... he’s here only cause she didn’t want to be. And then Steven will completly break mentally. And then maybe big wormy boi?
I pray for our lil Pink jacket, black haired angel son and ship the poor guy with some gods damn therapy. Lord knows the kid could really use it. All in all I don’t know what will happen when she does finally show up, but I do know Steven isn’t done working through the trauma that is his life.

whaddup my dudes!!!
i am tired and wired and this means brain no writey but brain VERY focused on absolutely all the fic i have going on at once that aren’t prompts (prompts will be incoming, no worries dissociation anon)
and THAT means y’all get to hear about my many. many. MANY projects, or at least the ones that make my heart go pitter patter when i think of them
a few examples: demon!corvo and priest!daud with extra worldbuilding ; the naptime cuddles AU ; corvo doesn’t come to dunwall so jess and daud end up arranged-married for profit (more info..... under the readmore..... i’m gonna get rambly)
also feel free to ask questions, i love questions and they get me thinking even more in depth about the world and specific instances of characters and that is the entire POINT
LIKE OKAY SO MY BRAIN PRETTY MUCH CONTINUOUSLY THROWS IDEAS AT THE WALL AND ABOUT 95% OF THEM STICK BECAUSE I’M A HOARDING RAT BASTARD i love my ideas they are my precioussss
i might have about. 25 fic more or less active at the moment? which sounds like a reasonable number but those are the ones i have an actual plot for as well as the will to get them out into the world
let’s put aside the ones i have actually posted on tumblr or ao3 (teen!daud, domestic zombie apocalypse, bondageverse, knife!corvo) in favor of those you have either no or little idea exist. begin:
I MEAN OBVIOUSLY I MADE FANFIC OF MY OWN FANFIC or as i call it parallel/companion fic, because at some point in the past a prompter inspired me and i was deep in the prince!daud fic at the time and i thought what if high chaos. what if void monster corvo? what if horrifying yet human creature of the depths!!! what if EVERYTHING was TERRIBLE and daud killed corvo as a last ditch and vain attempt to get his people out of burrows’ clutches, and it all went to shit from there??? also they’re bound by marriage contract and the vagaries of magical intention and daud becomes corvo’s life battery, in essence, which you can imagine leads to a very unhealthy relationship i think it’s not spoilering much to tell you it does NOT end well, and i’ll be writing it as a sort of foil to low chaos prince!daud
i have quite a few high chaos fics actually. high chaos is depressing to play but the story outcomes are DELICIOUS and the degrading world and character motivations are a lot of fun to play around in
weirdly enough another one of these high chaos fics is the naptime cuddles AU!!! i won’t lie it’s the one i am currently on and i want to talk about it to everyone so bad constantly. in short, corvo doesn’t kill daud and the whalers because he’s trying to get out and currently too fucked up to fight, and when he doesn’t manage to save emily despite his best efforts he comes back to daud for some kind of symbolic execution. meanwhile thomas convinced daud to take a goddamn nap with him there because daud, despite his paranoia, does sleep better with people around, and this is entirely an excuse for semi-platonic daudthomascorvo cuddles in bed followed by whaler puppypiles when the gang catches on that this is a thing they can do now I LOVE PUPPYPILE WHALERS I LOVE NAPS I LOVE REDEMPTION THROUGH THE POWER OF RESTORATIVE SLEEP please i’m so tired and i can’t actually fall asleep next to people let me live my dream vicariously additionally: this will be my contribution to the absolutely wonderful whaler vineyard of old fanon
there is also what i feel should be a classic and ISN’T though a couple of fics were written around the concept and one in particular is /chef kiss, and the concept is: high chaos corvo meets low chaos corvo!!!!! i made it a threesome with daud because no one can stop me and i fucking LOVE the idea of daud ending up capable of telling them apart through tiny details even when high chaos corvo, bastard that he is, tries to impersonate low chaos corvo, who is a bastard in much more subtle ways and would probably be better at impersonating hc!c than the other way around but finds it distasteful; also i added intense body horror because that’s how i roll and there are eventual magical CONSEQUENCES to hc!c being in the low chaos world and regularly in contact with what is essentially his narrative double when he doesn’t belong there, probably ends in a tragically bittersweet way, i’m not completely clear on it yet though i do have ideas
and oh man......... the time travel corvo fic.... the one where high chaos corvo ends up in his own seven-year-old body........... fuck i hashed out so much of the general worldbuilding for that one and ended up going way too far and imagining a sequel like i always do where corvo learns how to walk universes and gathers people he cares about from places where he can actually save them from their eventual tragic futures and the dissolution of their timelines once the outsider is ousted from the void and a new void avatar is made and SHENANIGANS YO!!! SHENANIGANS AND CAMPING!!!! SELF-CROSSOVERS!!!!!!! I COULD HAVE HIM MEET HIMSELF IF HE HADN’T TRAVELED BACK I’M CRYING I HAVE SO MANY EMOTIONS
the one where corvo is a fae child is probably a lil bit high chaos though it isn’t determined yet, and he has all of these instincts with regards to possessing and exchange and deals, and assumptions as to how other people must work approximately the same, and he is so wrong. then there’s the really creepy bad touch possible sequel that i won’t get into unless someone specifically asks because it’s a lil bit much really
oh MAN oh SHIT speaking of bad touch there’s another dead dove do not eat one where i grabbed an entire handful of granny rags’ apparent fucking around with magical arrays and rune creation and general spellery and threw it at corvo post-interregnum and he sees “ghosts” and doesn’t understand what the FUCK is going on and things go really badly for him, and one ghost, soon the only ghost, is daud, and corvo doesn’t know if he’s real, if he’s seeing things, if he’s NOT seeing things but daud is some kind of void demon, if he is and also having psychotic breaks he doesn’t remember because he ends up with some hellish bruises, but the real daud is actually still out there just hiding out and corvo will eventually meet up with him and real daud will meet fake daud and even more shit will happen
god, the demon!corvo AU gets pretty fucked up as well if i remember right; corvo is both some dude with a wife and kid and the demon that inhabits him, jess is his wife and the demon that inhabits her (to be clear, separate characters but both based on either jess or corvo oh my GOD what if i switched the demons that would be amazing but no, calm down, maybe for a short what-if scenario that will inevitably turn into its own thing), daud is the overseer with the really good exorcism record trying to get the demons to fuck off except he thinks there’s only one of them and the other takes him by surprise; cue daud being hunted by that demon, furious that daud shattered his favorite pupil, and some revelations about what exactly lives inside the abbey and also under it
on a somewhat lighter note, the one where corvo never comes to dunwall (i think his mom gets sick and he doesn’t win the blade verbena at sixteen?) is also where jess keeps losing her royal protectors to assassination attempts because the first one was decent and died protecting her and the second one was decent and had an accident and people start believing there’s a curse on the position or a curse on her, and she’s like okay so how do i make sure i don’t die now that no one is willing to become my protector since it’s pretty much a death sentence, and she arranges a meeting with the best assassin in the city and suggests an alliance -- protection and some commission overview, all secret, versus funding and housing -- in the form of a marriage and daud ends up agreeing; then later duke abele visits and corvo is among his personal guard and he gets to meet the empress, and the assassin, and there are ot3 shenanigans
oh my GOD also the kids in karnaca AU. obviously. fuck you may have seen the (dis)armingly charmed notefic but this would be them meeting as actual kids, in karnaca, just tiny babies, daud recently kidnapped and corvo doing his best to make this cool older kid into his friend and also maybe hiding him from the people who want to train him to do Illegal Things, and there are dumb childish arguments and daud goes on the run to avoid capture and there is an exchange of letters that at one point stops and corvo is Devastated and there is a REUNION and they are ADORABLE but also INCREDIBLY STUPID, AS IS RIGHT AND CORRECT, and i don’t know what happens later but it gives me warm fuzzies okay
then i have a NUMBER of oneshots that are more or less plotted out, like the one where jess has a kind of groundhog day because Heart reasons but over months and starts out not quite remembering what happened in past attempts and OF COURSE it ends with royal ot3; and there’s the one where Daud becomes the Outsider and is very temporally confused and OF COURSE it ends with corvodaud who do you take me for (including Very Perplexing arguments where daud doesn’t know at what point in this relationship’s development he is and corvo is angry or very patient depending on where he accidentally time travels to, and i make some assumptions about the non-linearity of the void avatar’s existence); and there’s the one where corvo catches the plague and gets through kingsparrow to get emily out then to people he trusts, ie the curnows and sam beechworth, then crawls away to die, but daud finds him and sighs and rolls up his sleeves and sends whalers to the Tower and emily thinks the Tower is haunted then, when it becomes very clear the Tower is not, demands one of these assassins teach her how to stab a bitch; AND THERE’S THE ONE WHERE CORVO AND JESS ARE GHOSTS AND DAUD IS A REAL ESTATE AGENT AND THE WHALERS ARE THE KIDS HE TRIED TO HELP OUT AS A SOCIAL WORKER and yes it’s ot3 and yes he buys the ghost house and ends up being filmed by the whalers to do cooking videos and fancy knife tricks and asmr because his voice is insanely soothing when he’s not being ornery; oh fuck and there’s the one where i wrote an unrequited corvodaud prompt and my brain grabbed it, smelled it, and decided that corvo very reluctantly falling for daud was necessary to the health of my feelings, and there is at least one (1) sleeping beauty coma while corvo yells at the outsider about the Heart; also there’s the one where in D2 billie was evasive about the old guy living with her on her boat and em finds daud rather than sokolov in jindosh’s basement and they have long, emotional discussions; and for the character building hell of it one that would span the outsider’s beginnings and growth and how the void tries to welcome him in
okay........................ i think i’m done rambling now
i love fanfic y’all
