Task Force 141 with a Small/Flat Chested Reader
[Task Force 141 x F!Reader]
[Warnings: I mean, I talk about tits what more can you expect? It's pretty NSFW, so MINORS GET OUT.]
[AN: iykyk, yk? Anyways. Love the IBTC just bc I think that's cute and I'm in a mood to show this community love <3]
Reblogs are appreciated!
Captain John Price
I think he has a slight size kink, not too big but small tits play into it. Yes ofc he loves all tits but small tits just look so lovely to him. If you wear any bras or whatever, he's staring for the outline. The same thing if you don't wear anything, he might catch a glimpse of your nipples poking through and he likes that. Won't outright say it though.
Loves whenever you wear low necklines, like v necks, scoops, things that show off your chest.
If you wear long necklaces that dip in between? ohohoh. He can't help but stare and whisper the dirtiest things in your ear.
I think he really liked to hug you from behind and playfully rub his hands upwards from your stomach to your chest.
Isn't it cute how his whole hand can envelop them? He really likes to grope you. Especially laying in bed and he spoons you, hands come up? Boom, gotta grab the titty.
Absolutely feral over them. Any insecurities get washed away by how much he wants to touch you and how he compliments you.
Kyle "Gaz" Garrick
I feel like he's a huge thigh guy but your tits are pretty hot to him. Thinks they're super elegant with the way they fit in certain clothes.
He stares. He cannot stop staring. He's feel his face heat whenever you catch him and he covers it in the dorkiest ways possible.
Idk I feel like he's really,,,, silly? With the way he loves your tits. Can't really explain it but just know he's kinda silly.
I think he loves to rest his head on your chest and take naps. But he'll also start kissing just to get you flustered.
He gets pretty sad if you get sad or feel any self doubt over your tits. He really loves how they fit you and how they look once clothes come off.
He has a special love for whenever you wear cute bras or bralettes, whatever makes you happiest I guarantee he's in love with.
Johnny "Soap" MacTavish
He's super immature about the way he loves your tits. Like, wolf whistles whenever you wear something a little more revealing, makes raunchy comments, it's gotta make you bashful because he thinks that's cute.
Love love loves to suck on your nipples. Like, I don't know he strikes me as a strong titty guy and small tits make him feral.
He'll bite gently because his bitemarks on your tits make him blush. Big on squeezing and generally worshipping that part of your body. And like Gaz, he just LOVES to stare.
Though I think he doesn't actually like the long necklaces? And it's not that he doesn't like that but rather he thinks they detract from your chest just a bit.
He's the world's best hype man. Feeling insecure? Societal standards telling you that you need more? No worries, he's gonna squash all of that in a heartbeat.
You ever see that one vine that was like, 'take them titties out bc I'm trying to see them?' He's,,, the embodiment of that. Good luck ever wearing a shirt for more than a few hours around him when you're relaxing together at home.
Simon "Ghost" Riley
yeah idk about you guys but I think Ghost has HUGE size kink. And to be fair, he kinda looms over everyone but your small tits really put his size kink into high gear.
He's always going to be cupping, rubbing and sucking your tits or at least dreaming about the moment he can again. Loves having you underneath him so he can watch your chest rise and fall, see every part of you but focus on your nipples especially.
He likes how you look in outfits as well, they accentuate your body and make you look gorgeous to him. Also a big fan of necklines that go low. But he also enjoys knowing he's the only man who can touch you there.
Loves when you lay on top of him to cuddle. Something about your chests pressed together is intimate and romantic to him? He wouldn't call it romantic, more like relaxing. He likes physical touch but it takes a while to get there.
Thinks aesthetically, that you're gorgeous. I think he sketches in his spare time, I can't actually remember if that was,,, confirmed or not? maybe I'm hallucinating but he sketches in his spare time and he's drawn your chest before.
He thinks you're beautiful. No part of you needs to change or bend to societal pressures. Insecurity tends to melt away when you're with him because he just... gets you. Knows what to say and how to say it in such a way that it's comforting and sweet.

A Ghost headcanon I've had for a while that I kinda wanted to talk about bc I like it (this might be long?):
☆Ghouls' Summoning days☆
So, what are Summoning days? Basically, they're like ghouls' birthdays, except instead of celebrating the day they were born, it's the day they were summoned.
Ghouls don't typically have birthdays (or at least they don't care about them?) Since one, time works differently in Hell, and two, most of them have been alive for hundreds or even thousands of years, so it's not like it's easy to keep up.
Not all the ghouls do Summoning days, but most humans like to do them for ghouls they're close with.
☆each ghoul's opinion on Summoning days (era III and V)☆
Omega: Depends on when. He never really thought about it much more than maybe hanging out with Alpha, until he met Terzo. They started spending it together, and Omega absolutely loved it. After Terzo died, he started hating it a lot more, he absolutely despised still being in the Clergy, and it reminded him of how alone he was without his Terzo.
Alpha: does not want to think about it, there's nothing you can do about it, end of story. He spends most of it with Omega anyway (when Omega is not with Terzo that is) since they were summoned on the same day at the same time. May let his band ghouls, the Emeritus boys and some Siblings he's particularly close with hang out with him.
Water: Loves attention, so he definitely celebrates it. Likes getting a whole day for people to do whatever he wants, give him things and just be the center of attention.
Air: he's so old and has been around for so long that he lost track, and it's not like he cared that much about it in the first place. Still, will appreciate people that acknowledge it to, say, give him a present or do stuff for him.
Little Earth: most Earth ghoul tribes are very reserved and don't show much emotion, so he doesn't show it that much but he appreciates it.
Mist: likes going out, getting presents, and partying with her friends (mostly Terzo and Ifrit) to celebrate. Also loves the attention she gets from it.
Special: absolutely LOVES Summoning days. He loves having fun and celebrating, so this is just a reason to do so, and he loves it. Also loves when people gift him things he likes.
Ifrit: getting all the attention and going out with friends? Pretty much his favorite things in the world. Yeah Summoning days are cool.
ChAir/Zephyr: it's not that they don't like them, but there's so much stuff they'd rather be doing than go out or, yk, actually do anything. So as long as they can stay in and maybe hang out with his friends it's fine.
Dewdrop: will say he hates it, but in reality really likes being appreciated. Will spend most of it with Aether and Rain and getting affection from them bc ofc he would, but will deny it to hell and back.
Aether: doesn't give it much thought, maybe would spend it with Copia? But aside from that it's not on his mind at all.
Mountain: again, Earth ghouls are v reserved, and he doesn't really see much point in Summoning days.
Rain: hates being the center of attention all the time, but especially in his Summoning day. Prefers to just have a moment with Copia, their band ghouls and maybe Omega. Sometimes he does enjoy getting presents as well.
Swiss: another ghoul obsessed with being the center of attention, having everyone else congratulate him simply for being there, yeah it's good. Literally loves it.
Sunshine: hasn't been around for as long as the rest. She's had no more than two Summoning days, and decided she absolutely loves them. Would spend most with Rain, Dew and the girls. Also Copia always plans things for her since she's like a daughter to him (and he literally summoned her).
Cirrus: doesn't see the point. Why are humans so obsessed with those kinds of things?
Cumulus: Cirrus and Mist always plan her something, so she liked them a bunch. Just hanging with her girlfriends and sometimes the other band ghouls is fun. Copia also likes to give her pretty things he found during tours. She has fun.

Ok, you know I need you to go into detail about the ‘psychic blindness’ and courtship rituals! And the weddings! (Only if you want to, of course! :3)
yay! Ofc I will! :)) Thank you!!!!
Good morning yall- another long one so be prepared haha :))
Psychic blindness is just like regular blindness in humans! Aenar use psychic powers to see- if someone is psychically blind, they're just plain old regular blind too. There's systems in place for individuals who have this disability, it's also a thing to be deaf (u know, as it is) but also to have both psychic blindness and loss of hearing. I made sign language for the Aenar (they can see simple gestures the same way they see expressions) and I also made a 'tap language' for individuals who are both psychically blind and deaf. Also, to the Aenar, the rest of the world save for the Vulcans are 'psychically blind' but 'visually seeing'. The idea is that others can see things they can't, but the Aenar have their own ways of seeing as well. Both are considered sight. The word in my conlang for sight is 'penak' which comes from 'pak' for sense and 'pen' for mind.
courtship rituals! As I've said, the Aenar never say anything directly. Ever. Which makes it difficult sometimes for outsiders to understand wtf is going on. (Oof RIP Hemmer's wife) There are usually 4 stages to a relationship 1- casual, 2-pre-engagement, 3-engagement, 4-marriage. Notice how it goes from casual to committed almost instantly. It's a big deal to go from 1-2. Usually, Aenar have a few casual relationships, but only 2-3 pre-engagement bonds in their life. (Oh, bonds-- oof I might need a separate post for that) Casual relationships are just that, but in order to move to a pre-engagement bond some things have to take place. Namely, approval from one's parents and explicit approval from one's partner. Precognition also plays a role here, and I have two types of precognition (oh boy, psychic stuff) One predicts danger, and the other predicts compatibility between people. Aenar like to talk about the dangerous one because it makes them sound cool- they never mention the other one. Remember how there's stages? well, if precognition throws you a curveball you can go from 0-2 (Nothing to pre-engagement bond) or even 0-3 (Nothing to engagement bond) almost instantly. Your brain basically speedruns the relationship. The goal of precognition is to approximate things, either danger or personal compatibility. When a psychic finds someone that their brain 'recognizes' and is seemingly a good partner for them (platonic or romantic) boom! Bond! This can lead to many funny/awkward/chaotic things. (Hemmer's parents I headcanon are from rival families, and had some precognition shenanigans) Ummm, as for rituals pre-engagement, there's not a lot... engagement and after has some more
Engagement-marriage. Oof. Good luck if you're not an Aenar. So to start off, to get engaged there's more loopholes and things to do. You start with the intended partner and gift each other A- a gift that represents them and your relationship and B- a bead for their esh'ra'oo. (Great uhh, I need to explain what that is info* below oof) and C- a tradition involving a scarf. All gifts must be accepted, and then there's a formal proposal announcement that takes place in front of both families.
Marriage is as much of a headache as it is here. Both families must be visited to gain both approval and material things for the wedding. (Kind of like something old/new/borrowed/blue thing we have here) The ceremony itself is long af, and ends with a ceremonial jump into the local hot springs! Marriage is called 'taking the leap'! Technically there's both public and private marriage- the public part is the ceremony, the walk back to the couple's new home, and the events after are not. (Usually consummation of marriage and a secret tradition) The tradition can be anything from a prayer to cooking a meal together. Whatever the tradition is- its jealously guarded and passed down from mother to daughter, (unless the woman isn't an Aenar haha) When the two come out the next morning wearing each other's families scarf knots as their own (Each family has a signature knot and style) boom! Marriage is complete! (A trip after marriage isn't a thing, you mention 'honeymoon' to any Aenar they're gonna look at you like you're crazy)
*Esh'ra'oo is a beaded chord (kinda like the Navi song-chord) in which an individual composes a song for the beads they are given and earn. Each bead represents a huge moment in their life, and there's second and third chords for lyrics and notes. Tattoos can or can not follow these beads, each person has a preference. Each person's song is different and when they die the chord is placed/hung in the Ash'ha el Hekekren or the temple of stories- so their family can sing their song when they pray or want to remember them (Religion is...oof I can make another post haha) (Funerals...also oof omg I guess I gotta lot)
Anywho!! Thank you!!! :)))

Enjax headcanons
Tumblr media
(Featuring Wenvier because they're all my fav)
Lots of pet names. Mainly "babe".
Lots of PDA. At the beginning, Enid was the one who initiated the most and she thought she might come off as clingy so she stopped for a second. But then Ajax was like "did I do something? What about my cuddles?". Since then, he knows he can indulge in the PDA as well.
It's actually a whole new process for him because she's his first girlfriend and he's naturally guarded and used to be alone. At the beginning, he was afraid to be overwhelmed by the relationship. But on the contrary, and because Enid also gives him personal space when he needs to, their couple is natural and easy.
Enid's mom obviously doesn't like them together. It's not against Ajax because he didn't particularly give a bad impression when they met, but she just wants Enid to be with a werewolf. Her dad thinks he's a nice guy though.
On the other hand, Ajax's moms LOVE Enid. They're just so glad that there's someone to make their son happy and that he doesn't stay in the solitude gorgons tend to get used to.
Enid lives for Starbucks. Ajax, as the dutiful boyfriend he is, always gets her coffee. Pink Drink is her fav ofc.
Ajax could eat pizza every day at any hour of the day. For his birthday, Enid made a pizza cake for him and it was the best day of his life.
He's the one who takes pictures for her Insta.
Ajax often goes back to Greece for the holidays to see his family there. They have a beach house and he invited Enid over the summer before their senior year. They spent the most amazing week together, his family loved her and Enid was just so happy to work on her tan. Tons of Instagram pics ofc. It's also where and when they had sex for the first time.
Cliché but Ajax is a big Mamma Mia's fan. He knows all the songs. For his bachelor party, Xavier got Ajax's moms and his aunt to perform Super Trouper just like in the movie and he laughed for hours.
Enid's happy place is Disney World. Ajax surprised her by taking them (him, Enid, Wednesday and Xavier) there during their senior year. She was overexcited and smiled during the whole thip and Ajax was just glad to make his Disney princess happy. Enid and Ajax had the best time. Xavier was just glad for the Star Wars universe. Wednesday was miserable throughout the whole trip. (There's this hilarious picture of Wednesday with her usual resting bitch face and Minnie Mouse ears Enid forced her to wear. Everyone always cracks up when they see this pic.)
Enid totally convinced him to dress up as Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder for Halloween.
In terms of jealousy, Enid will not hesitate to get her claws out when some girl tries to make a move on her man. For the longest time, Ajax thought that he wasn't the jealous type but that was until his older brother started to hit on Enid every time he saw her (I headcanon that he has a brother named Hector, I read it in a fanfic and I thought the Greek mythology reference was hilarious). It's meant to be as a joke but since he has some younger sibling complex with his brother who likes to rile him up, he's always so angry about it. Although Enid found his jealousy cute, she knows how complicated his relationship with his brother is and ended up making fun of Hector, saying he didn't stand a chance and that Ajax was way better anyway. Ajax always smiles smugly when he remembers Hector's gaping face.
Might break up for a while after they graduate because of differences: pressure on Enid from her family because she should have a werewolf mate, different goals and projects etc. Would definitely find their way back to each other a few years later thanks to Wednesday and Xavier making them realize they cannot live without the other.
Will get married and have at least 4 kids because Enid has always wanted a big pack.
They're the godparents of Ravenna, Wednesday and Xavier's only daughter.

Life After Richmond pt. 1
MASTERLIST
A Jason Sudeikis multi-chapter RPF w/ a reader insert/OFC. No use of y/n l/n.
A meeting with an author leads to the next project after Ted Lasso.
~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 1
"You should read this, it's fucking life changing." Brett dropped the book into Jason's lap on his way to the writers room. Pre-production for season 3 was well underway and they were making the most of some time writing together. Jason picked up the book and thumbed through it, the front inside cover had been signed by the author: 
'You're a twat. Love Callie' 
"I hope you’re good friends. She's not wrong though, why's it so good?" he questioned.
"It's just... bloody brilliant. Honestly, give it a go. She's going to be writing the new wave of romcoms before we know it. I might try and get her to give some TV writing a go once we’ve finished here."
"Sure, sure, I have all the time in the world to sit and read, Goldstein." Jason rolled his eyes and stuffed the book into his backpack before following Brett into the room. Reading was definitely the kind of recreational activity he didn't have time for at the moment. With shooting planned for right around the corner, downtime was hard to come by. It didn’t take long for the writing to draw him in though and a month or two later, Brett saw the book being launched at his head in the makeup trailer.
"Great book, thanks man. I think I've sent a copy to everyone I know." Jason chuckled. 
"I can get you a copy of your own if you're interested. Signed. Callie texted me, she'll be in London in a few weeks. She’s coming over to visit her mum and sister - want me to set up a meeting?"
"Absolutely yes, if she's OK with that? Get it in my diary, I’ll tell Lisa. We can move stuff around to fit it in so work around whenever works for her." Brett nodded, pulling out his phone. 
"She's having a bit of a shitty time, she's just split with her dickhead boyfriend. They were together for about 5 years I think. He's an absolute weapon, she's well shot of him."
"That sucks. She's from the UK? Maybe being at home will help."
“Doubt it, she left when she was like, 17 to get away from her mum.” Brett said with a laugh. “She’s probably coming to see Beth really but if her mum finds out she’s in the country and doesn’t visit, she’ll go mad.”
“How’d you meet?”
“I’ll let her tell you - she loves to tell that one. Mostly cos it makes me look like a loser.”
“Poor baby Brett.”
“Oh fuck off. I tell you what I’m dreading having you two in the same room. I’m gonna be the punching bag.”
“We love you really, bud. I bet she only calls her true best friends a twat.”
“That’s true actually, she does.”
Callie brought her knees up and rested her mug in the V between her torso and legs, reaching around to type. Her sister had offered her spare room and empty-during-the-day restaurant as a quiet workspace. She’d had more than enough of her mum and so far was loving being back in London and with her sister. She felt like hell after the break up and hadn’t been looking after herself at all. It had caused tension with her mum who’d accused Callie of moping around and had told her to sort herself out. With Beth’s help, she was finally starting to do just that. She had half an eye on the front windows of the large dining space looking out for Brett, when a little tap on the front door shifted her gaze. With a big smile, she rose to unlock the door. 
"Alright, gorgeous? God it’s been a long time." She reached up to hug him. 
"Not bad, how have you been? Stupid question - you look like shit - you've lost weight." He chided, pulling at the baggy hoodie.
"Mate, I'll have you know that this is a vast improvement. My hair is clean, I've bathed, I'm actually wearing clothes - and they're clean ones. I haven't had a glass of wine in... three days, and I considered eating breakfast this morning. That’s enough dragging me in front of your boss though, where's the introduction?" Brett sighed heavily. 
"Fine, Cal, this is Jason. Jason, this is Callie Draper. She didn't always look a mess.” He said pointedly.
"This mess is lightyears from a few weeks ago." Callie gestured to her yoga leggings and oversized hoodie. “I’m practically glowing.” The dark circles under her eyes and drawn complexion clearly said otherwise.
"She's right. You should have seen what I picked up from Birmingham airport. It doesn’t look like it should be, but it’s an upgrade." A voice drifted through the swinging kitchen doors. 
"Well, isn't this lovely and supportive. Thanks, sis." Callie called through the door. She turned to Jason and explained, "I got home from the North American leg of my book tour to find my boyfriend fucking our upstairs neighbour on my kitchen counter. I spent a few weeks surviving on wine and chocolate biscuits so I'm now in recovery mode, my skin hasn't forgiven me yet - being dumped in your 30s is a lot harder than it is in your 20s." She said briefly. 
"I'm so sorry, that's fucking awful. If it’s any consolation, it’s fucking horrible in your 40s." Jason offered kindly. Callie smiled and shrugged, the smile not quite reaching her eyes. 
"Jeez, I think I’ll stay single then. Thanks. Shall we sit?" she gestured to her table. "I'll make some coffee - as long as Americano is OK? I can't do a Latte on that thing." She pointed at the barista coffee machine and set about making the three drinks. 
"Sorry sweetheart, I didn't mean to upset you. I'm just worried." Brett dropped an arm around her shoulder and pulled her into a hug. 
"I'm OK. Getting there." She leaned into him before she started to fiddle with the coffee press, twisting it into place. 
"When are you going back to Chicago?"
"End of next week. I'm staying at Sara's at the moment, but I'm thinking of moving anyway."
“Where’s next on the list?” Brett asked curiously.
“Probably New York. I think Brookyn, my agent Laura lives just across the river and her office is in lower Manhattan so it seems like a pretty good spot.”
“Brooklyn is great, I’ve got a place there.”
“Excellent, you can give me take out recs.”
"Happy to. So how'd you two meet?" Jason asked, gesturing between Brett and Callie.
"I was at one of his gigs in San Francisco when he performed to 4 people and a dog. I was the only person who couldn't actually leave cos I was the barmaid. He was terrible!" Jason laughed and nudged Brett's shoulder, thanking Callie for the coffee she placed in front of him. 
"I couldn't understand why I was being heckled by a Brummie!" Brett shook his head. 
"Former Brummie. I'd been in the States for about 15 years by then." Callie countered, sitting back in her original seat. 
"When did you move?" Jason looked across at Callie, trying to connect the timeline.
"I was 17. I didn't want to go to uni, my mum was doing my head in, so I decided to do Camp America for a summer. I fell in love, wanted to stay so we got married when I was 18," Callie paused for effect, Jason's eyebrows somewhere near his hairline and Brett nearly doubled over laughing. "Then I was divorced at 22, and I've spent the last 15 years moving wherever I've wanted and doing any old jobs I can while I write. I just up and move when I’ve had enough. I’ve been in Chicago for the last 6 years though so it’s time for a change"
"Holy shit, maybe you should write that."
"Maybe I should." She laughed. It had been a while since she'd had to give her potted history, and it still made her laugh. 
"What happened with your ex husband? Tell him, Cal." Brett had tears in his eyes waiting for the final kicker in the story.. 
"He's happily remarried, we're still friends and I'm godmother to his and Andrew’s two little girls." She finished with a smirk.
"Are you serious? " Jason looked incredulous. 
"Yep, it was a bit of a wild time. My mum still hasn’t forgiven me, she adored him and she was devastated when she found out he was gay."
"You think? She was dreaming of babies on a ranch or some rubbish like that." Brett added with a laugh. "Anyway, enough of your crazy life. Have you got a book on you for Jason? And can you re-sign mine please: you called me a twat." Callie pulled a new book from her bag.
"I did that? Consider yourself honoured. I’m sure I only refer to my best friends as a twat. Got a pen?" she held out her hand, Jason supplied a red pen. "Ooh red, I like to edit in green. It feels less 'grrrr'." She tapped the pen to her lip, thinking, before lifting the cover so he couldn't see, and scribbled her message. Jason took it gratefully and put it straight in his bag without looking. Then she took Brett's dog-eared book and turned to where she'd last signed it. She sniggered at her previous message, and then signed just underneath it before passing the book back. Brett opened it. 
"Callie!" He held it out for Jason to see the new inscription:
'You're still a twat. Still love you though, Callie xo'
"I hope mine is nicer. Either that or I’m already in best friend territory." Jason teased.
"You won't know if you don't read it."
"The book? Oh I read it, I loved it. I sent it to everyone I know." Callie narrowed her eyes at him. 
"When you say everyone you know... do you happen to know Reese Witherspoon?"
"Not personally, but my friend Alexi does. And I sent her a copy, why?"
"My Insta went mental a few weeks ago, Reese Witherspoon, Drew Barrymore... fucking Jennifer Aniston! All tagging me with pictures of the book. It was insane. I’ve had to add more dates to the book tour when I get back, and I’m going on a couple of daytime TV shows as well."
"Jen? Oh that was me, I'm definitely taking credit for that one. And the others by association." Callie's eyes were like saucers. 
"Holy shit." She whispered. "Holy shit. I told Laura something weird had happened, she didn’t believe me. She said it was just word of mouth."
"You're like... Nora Ephron reincarnated. If your books are anything to go by, then I can't wait to read your screenplays. Post-its, shopping lists. You name it, I'll read it." Callie blushed into her coffee.
11am turned quickly to lunchtime, with Callie's sister bringing out food for them all. Callie told them that she'd spent the previous week at her mums binge watching Ted Lasso. Her time living in America had meant that she'd already been familiar with Jason from his SNL days. Conversation came easily between the three of them and lunch soon fell away to mid afternoon, and by 4pm they were being pushed by Callie’s sister into clearing away water glasses, coffee cups and cake plates to make way for the restaurant opening. Brett excused himself to go to the bathroom and Jason turned to Callie,
"You've probably heard this from everyone already, but it does get easier. You'll... find yourself again." She nodded. 
"Thanks. I'll keep trying, it feels good to be out of the pity party so I just need to keep going. I'm struggling to write though," she shrugged, "I can't get in the right headspace, I just keep getting into my own head and seeing, well, what I walked in on. And then it’s all I see. I've tried poetry, lyrics, plays, prose... I just can't get my words out." Her chin dropped to her chest and she brushed across her eyes quickly to get rid of any potential tears. "Sorry, I didn't mean to offload. It all just feels a bit bleak and dark foresty right now."
"I'm glad you did, your words will come back. Give yourself time." Jason offered a hug, and she rose slightly onto her toes to accept. 
"Thank you. Really, thank you." She muttered against the neckline of his hoodie. 
"My turn." Brett interrupted and Callie reluctantly stepped away from Jason. She ruffled Brett's hair and he planted a kiss on her forehead. "When's your flight?"
"Next week, I'm back at mum's at the weekend for my last few days though. Got to go back for one more round of fucks disguised as a pep talk." Brett nodded, 
"She’s only doing it because she loves you. Don't be a stranger, and please look after yourself." She nodded. 
"Will do, it was really good to see you. A patented Goldstein hug makes everything ok. And so good to meet you Jason. Jesus, what a fucking understatement! Good luck with the show."
"Thank you, it was great to meet you too."
"Thanks babe, it wouldn't be half as good without this genius." Brett nudged Jason gently and the two left Callie to lock the door behind them. 
"Jennifer fucking Aniston." She whispered, shaking her head. "As if!"
A few days later, Callie's phone pinged with a Twitter DM. A screenshot. Of a tweet she'd sent from her sister's sofa,
"Meeting actual pop culture geniuses is all well and good until they turn out to be extremely hot and very, very distracting 🥵"
She frowned at the screenshot at first, before seeing the message it came with. 
'Just checking whether you've met any other pop culture geniuses over the last few days?' Callie's jaw dropped. He did not have Twitter. She was almost certain. Almost. "Shit," she whispered furiously, "shit, shit, shit. Bethhhhhh?" she wailed, calling her sister. 
"What's up?" Beth replied, coming in from her room, DVD in hand. 
"I might have tweeted about meeting Jason the other day. Might have called him hot. He's found the tweet." Beth looked blankly, 
"Did you seriously think he didn't have Twitter?"
"There's an account, but it's not active!" 
"Ohh.. Oh Callie, you plum!"
"Shit! I'm so mortified!"
"Ahh so own it, he's seen it now. You might as well just laugh it off. Speaking off, I knew I had one of his films somewhere - fancy watching it?" She held up 'Sleeping with Other People' Callie was too nose deep in her phone to say no. 
"How's this sound - 'Only Brett and I’m not sure he qualifies as a genius.'?"
"Cute, funny. Breezy, go for it. I'm getting popcorn, shall I open some wine?"
"Fuck yes, please do. I might as well continue to drink myself to death at this rate. I'm a walking mess, Beth."
"You're fine. You're getting over dickhead at your own pace, we got you through the heartbreak and booze diet, I know you’re in the forest but we're getting you out." Callie hummed, hitting send on the message and shoving her phone out of sight to watch the film. By the time it ended, the empty wine bottle sat on the coffee table while Callie and Beth lay head to toe on the sofa. 
"So… The film didn't help." Callie pointed out, gently kicking her sister’s head. 
"You're not wrong," Beth sniggered, "He really is hot!"
"Aghh, shut up. I'm in my heartbreak era. I'm allowed to lust over unattainable men. Thank god I’ll never have to meet him again. He is ridiculously gorgeous in person, I couldn’t cope with that again."
"Did he reply to you?"
"Dunno, I'm sitting on my phone. Probably not." Callie dug under the cushions to retrieve it, "Oh shit, he has replied - it just says 'good to know.' Oh, he's sent a link to a song, he said it reminds him of the book." Callie clicked the link and turned up the volume. She looked across at Beth. 
"Didn’t you play this on repeat for about 8 months while you wrote?" Callie nodded slowly. "Bit mad that he's gone for the same song." Callie nodded again, incredulous.
"I'm sending him the full playlist." She decided, getting the link and adding it to the message stream with the caption 'here's my full playlist for the book, crazy coincidence that you went for that track.' He replied with a purple heart, and Callie resisted the urge to keep the conversation going.
Callie landed in Chicago a week later, stopping briefly at her old apartment to get more of her stuff before continuing to her best friend's home. After some calls to her agent, Laura, she had managed to sign a lease on an apartment in New York within the month, and packed up the rest of her belongings. Messages from Jason dropped into her Twitter DMs once or twice a week, recommending the best place in Brooklyn for tacos,  they’d exchanged book recommendations. It felt strange after so long to be living alone. Laura had found her a tiny apartment close enough that they could regularly meet. Since traveling the country together on her book tour, and the break up, she and Laura had become close friends. Callie was grateful to not be starting over totally alone in a new city. She settled down to write, but found again that the words wouldn't come to her, it felt like an age since she’d managed to successfully put pen to paper. Without really thinking, she picked up her phone and sent a message via Twitter: 'What do you listen to when you write?' The response came through almost immediately with a link to Run The Jewels - a duo she'd never heard of. She hit play without replying to the message and emerged 4 hours and 10,000 words later to a new message. Not on Twitter, on WhatsApp, from a number she didn't have saved already. 
'I talked Brett into giving me your number, I hope you don't mind. Hope the music suggestion worked.'
'It did! I finally got something going. Nothing like a looming deadline to hurry me along. I was on a couple of talk shows last week - it was completely bizarre. I don’t know how you do it. Weird as fuck.’
‘You get used to it. Send me the link, I wanna watch.’
Callie dropped the youtube link into their message chain and got back to work. The messages became more and more regular back and forth - discussing new episodes of TV shows they’d recommended to each other, swapping playlists and books. Callie even sent over recipes she’d made, with photographic evidence of how they’d turned out.
Over brunch, Laura put a coffee cup down for Callie and caught sight of a selfie of Jason and Brett on her phone.
“Well this is unexpectedly wonderful Callie Draper. Does Brett know he’s got a new role as matchmaker?”
“Don’t be silly, we’re just friends. We really got along when we met and he’s just really easy to talk to.” Laura hummed, looking at her own phone. She froze reading an email and Callie looked up at the notable silence. She’d expected the Spanish inquisition but it was nowhere to be found. “What’s up babe?”
“Fuuuck. Callie, fucking hell.”
“Laura! What is it? What’s going on?” Laura slid her phone across the table and Callie read the open email;
‘We’d like to invite Ms Draper to the offices to discuss a potential collaboration in getting her book adapted as a series. I’ll send the details across shortly. I'm away in LA for two weeks so we’ll get something booked in early next month. Netflix would love to have something like this in our wheelhouse so I’m really excited to meet you both.’
“Netflix?” Callie whispered in awe, more to the phone than to Laura.
“NETFLIX baby! Netflix!”
“Fucking hell. Fuck me, what do I do?”
“We meet with them, obviously!” Laura took the phone back and frantically drafted a response. Across the table, Callie picked her phone up and wrote a message of her own.
‘Holy fuck, Netflix want to meet me next month to discuss adapting the book. Fuck me, what do I do?!’
‘That’s amazing news - congrats! Meet with them of course, there’s no harm in hearing what they’re thinking of. Meeting with them doesn’t mean you’re committing to them. You’ll crush it.”
‘I know fuck all about TV. Hope you’re ready for a Padewan?’
In London, Jason laughed at his phone before sending a Yoda gif in response. Callie beamed at the reply before concentrating on Laura who was practically combusting. A few days later, a huge bouquet of beautiful sunflowers arrived on her doorstep with a note from Jason and Brett.
Do it you must, young Padawan 💜
She’d cried and sent them both a picture, thanking them.
‘Anytime, anything you need. You’ll do great, I can’t wait to hear all about it.’ Jason had replied.
The Netflix meeting soon rolled around and Callie listened intently. It had sounded great, she knew very little about TV but she’d heard enough to be a little wary of their business model of cancelling both popular and underperforming shows. She wondered if she was ruthless enough for them but found herself hiding those fears from Jason and Brett. She asked Laura to keep Netflix at arms length for a while, playing on her other deadline commitments, while she tried to work the scenarios in her own mind. They were walking through the park when the call from Apple TV reached Laura. She excused herself away from Callie slightly to take the call, before returning with a huge smile.
“Apple wants to meet you now. It happens sometimes, they’ll have heard through the grapevine about the things Netflix are looking into. Sometimes they’re bothered and want to see for themselves, sometimes they leave each other to it. Could be good for you though to hear out another option? They’ve booked us in to meet next month.” Callie was speechless. They parted ways and Laura went back to the office while Callie went home to write. On the way, she sent Jason a message.
‘Now Apple wants to meet me. This is insane. Insane! I’m really wary of Netflix. I’m not sure they’re the right fit. How did you know when you went with Apple?’
‘Amazing news! We were lucky with Apple, we knew right away and they’ve been really supportive. Couldn’t wish for a greater bunch of folks to work with. At least you’ll have something to compare Netflix to.’
Callie smiled, she knew he was right. They’d batted enough ideas back and forth over the last 5 months to know when each other was on the right track. She settled back at her desk and picked a playlist to write to. Time to focus on the day job - not the possibilities of what might happen.

🔥 on the whole fanon characterizations of Bruno and Abbacchio being reduced to the 'team mom and dad'
Honestly, I don't have a problem with it. At least, I don't vehemently hate it like a lot of people who oppose this characterization do. And here's why.
Fanon exists not because one person comes up with a headcanon that everyone else adopts, but because many people across the spectrum watched a show and got similar impressions of it. When you first saw fanart of Bucciarati as a cat, say, with Mista, Fugo, and Narancia his precious kittens, and Abbacchio his husband begrudging the addition of two more little scamps, did that idea strike you as cut from whole cloth? Or did you see the parallel between Araki's Bruno, who built his gang from an assortment of rejects that wound up sharing a mutual respect, if not friendship or love? I'm going to guess it's the latter.
People see the Bucci Gang as a found family, rightfully so - at least based on the tiny sliver of their lives that Vento Aureo gave us. While you could argue that forcing a nuclear family structure on found family groups is reductive, we tend to draw on what's familiar to create new things. The parental roles go to the people who are older and ostensibly wiser, because that's what we know (and/or want) from our experiences growing up. And if the gang hadn't been comprised of a bunch of teenagers, there might not be such a robust fanon that imagines them as children adopted by the older and (again presumably lol) wiser members - although ofc found families of characters who are similar in age to each other still impose this dynamic. Araki gave us a group of people who care about each other and go through some rough stuff together, and if that's not a family, I don't know what is.
Where I object to the bruabba mom and dad dynamic, though, is the disregard that characterization often has for who Bucciarati and Abbacchio actually are as characters. I've said before that there's tragedy in imagining either man responsible for the wellbeing of others. They're kids, too, the same generation as the rest of the squad, and they've got problems enough keeping themselves alive, let alone being in a position to give the proper care that a parent should to a child. Imagining them as the leaders of a family unit is fine, but the fandom tends to project an ideal upon these characters that misreads who they are and what they're capable of. Too much softening of the rough edges of a character will turn him into Ned Flanders (and even Flanders has more depth than some fans give to their flanderized faves).
In the end, I think fandoms want their characters to be happy, to imagine a world where they don't suffer the trials and heartbreaks that lie in canon. That's beautiful. But willfully ignoring the way those characters are written takes away qualities that literally (because characters don't exist unless someone creates them) define them. At that point, you may as well make an OC.

My (Personal) Favorite LCK Teams for the 2024 Season
1. KT Rolster
My beloved coinflip team! I love all of them, from certified class clowns Pyosik and BeryL to chill veterans Deft and Bdd to rookie PerfecT who's honestly just along for the ride. Their games are so fun, and their team energy is exactly the same as five random guys who queue up together on weekends (the jokes, the "ohh!"s, how supportive they all are). To top it all off, their gameplay is so unpredictable that you never know what to expect from them, regardless of whether they're playing the top ranked team or the 10th place one, making them all the more entertaining to watch. There's only one guarantee in a KT match, and that's that you're in for a show. I'm incredibly e-word to see how they play out the rest of this season, and I am very much rooting for them to make Worlds come autumn (especially knowing what DRX pulled in 2022 with three of these same players).
2. T1
Given my username, this is no shocker - in fact it's a bit surprising that T1 isn't in the top spot - but I am so hype for the third
consecutive year of this T1 starting line-up. Faker has been playing phenomenally this split, and when accompanied by the legendary Mat-and-Pat Oner-Zeus on the top side of the map, supported by the best bot duo in the world, Gumayusi-Keria, I can't wait to see how far these reigning World champions will go in tournaments this year. Watching them thrive always feels so satisfying. Although part of me doubts it, I'm hoping that if they play well enough this year, there's a chance that we might even get the same roster yet again in 2025 (and then honestly just send all of T1 to Asia Games in 2026?), but I'm getting too ahead of myself - for now I just hope they all play well this year. T1, fighting!
3. Tie Between GenG and DK
Canyon and ShowMaker divorced and split custody of this ranking, what can I say. I have always loved watching ex-Damwon, now D Plus Kia, although in recent years it has very much felt like the Canyon-and-ShowMaker-show. Now that Canyon is on GenG, DK has become simply "ShowMaker and his posse", although it has been working fairly well for them. I am a big fan of Lucid and have loved watching all his highs and lows this split - he has my vote for rookie of the year to be sure. Then, ofc, there's the villains of every T1 fanstory: the Church of Chovy. His plays are so clean that I can't help but be a fan of him, though. Then, of course, there's the legendary Lehends my beloved. Truly the Holy Ghost of supports, to BeryL's Father and Keria's Son. I'm glad that he and Peyz have started working on their synergy a bit more because I am counting on either GenG or T1 to win MSI so that all four of these favorite teams can make worlds this year :)
Honorable mention goes to OK Brion (especially Our Lord Morgan) for being so fun and resilient - watching their Mic Checks always makes me crack up. I have been a BROliever since the start of the season and I was absolutely thrilled that they were able to get some matches under their belt, so although it's highly unlikely that they'll make it to any international tournaments this year, I am wishing them well in the upcoming LCK Summer Split.

How do you think the survive kids would handle being stuck on a long bus ride together for like, 8ish hours? For the sake of this hypothetical, the Professor is driving and everyone’s kemonogami partners are here on the bus.
Okay so were it not for the kemonogami since this is like a bubch of teenagers in 2020, I would accuse them of ignoring each other on their phones for 8 hours
BUT since their partners are there, there would be a lot more stories about school field trips, some classic field trip songs, and a lot more pointing out interesting things out the window
Saki, Minoru, Takuma, Miu, and Miyuki are Team "Let's Stop At Every Road Side Attraction and Tourist Spot" because if they're gonna be on a long ride they might as well have fun, get some group photos, and explore the world (otherwise, why didn't they just take a plane or something?)
The rest are Team "If We Keep Stopping We Will Never Get There Like This Is Already 8 Hours WITHOUT Stops And I Did Not Sign Up For A Twelve Hour Bus Ride"
I know Takuma is usually Mr. Peacekeeper over here but thinking about how early game had dialogue options like hey let's take a break and look at the flowers or cmon let Minoru have fun taking pictures I just think he would want to take more stops and have fun
For the most part everyone's partners agree with them but every now and then Falcomon or Syakomon will be like "okay seriously guys we don't NEED to stop here"
Or if Kunemon thinks a spot looks interesting Ryo will stop the bus his damn self so his partner can have fun
Or if the other mons think their partners are being too serious and not enjoying what is supposed to be a FUN trip enough they will gently convince them that stopping is a good idea
YOU KNOW HOW SOMETIMES OLD PEOPLE WILL SAY SOMETHING COMPLETELY OUT OF POCKET AND THEN NOT ELABORATE? I like to picture the Professor occasionally being like "this reminds me of the time that..." and dropping some random crazy thing he did on a school trip back in the day and then just NOT telling the full story jsjsnd
Other "stop the bus" vs "do not stop the bus" arguments include
-"Let's go to a restaurant" vs "Aoi packed more than enough snacks to last the whole ride"
-"I gotta pee" vs "We literally stopped half an hour ago, hold it"
-"I wanna look at <random landmark that's neither an attraction nor a tourist spot, but just like a really cool rock or a really big tree>" vs "NO"
Honestly Ryo yelling at everyone else to stop yelling at each other comes in clutch several times
The driver ofc has the final say about stopping or not and he tries his best to be fair about balancing fun with GETTING THERE IN A TIMELY MANNER
Other random bus ride hcs include
-all the kids falling asleep at some point except for Shuuji who stays up to keep the prof company
-a LOT of "wow this is different now" comments from Miyuki
-the more adventurous kids constantly managing to wander off and get lost when they DO stop, and very much testing the others' patience
-Kaito trying to watch a video with Dracmon sharing earphones and having to confront questions such as "where exactly are your ears" and "how exactly do you look at things"
-Takuma learning the hard way that Agumon gets motion sick
-Miu's arms getting tired from trying to hold Syakomon up in a way such that she can see out the window
TLDR: they get along about as well as they always do and things go...about as smoothly as they always do. But overall they agree that it was fun and they don't regret it. They might not want to do it again, however. (Except for the obvious return trip but you know what I mean).

Felt like doing some headcanons about the kitchen utensil family
Of course, Tea and Kettle are both the main cooks of the family (Bean too when she visits) and that being said, they're kind of the rulers of that space. If you step in without permission, you will get whacked with a spatula. Tea is teaching Mugman how to cook however, and he's doing a great job. Cuphead is too wild to focus, and Joe is too clumsy. He probably could cook if he didn't tangle his fingers while grabbing a pan or something. Chalice can bake though, and she teaches Siphi how to as a sisterly bonding thing. (Not that Tea can't bake, she was mentored under Saltbaker after all.) Cuphead likes to decorate the treats at the end. I've kinda wanted to do sick headcanons, so here's my first real shot at this. Joe, as I mentioned in one post, is an absolute baby over it. However, at the same time, he doesn't become a baby about it until he's literally unfunctional and realizes "Holy shit, I need rest and possibly have an eye kept on me" so then he becomes scared acts like a child. (much to Tea's dismay and amusement) Tea, on the other hand, unless it's REAL bad, nobody really notices since she masks it up real good. Someone might chalk it up to allergies even. The main hints she's sick is she won't cook as much both out of not wanting to get the others sick as well as just being tired. The kids are as you expect, they're kids and not as used to being sick as they haven't been here very long yet. Except Siphi, she's pretty sickly and is just used to it. Kettle is immortal he's fine. Cuphead tries to act all tough and all that jazz, yeah, sneezes and falls on his ass and his mother tells him to get it to bed. Mugman often fakes being sick so he can stay home and read. Chalice is just the "Get away and let me rest I'm tired and grumpy" Here's a kind of "first time seeing this" parental freakout 'angst' thing, but the first time Tea saw one of the boys scrape their knee or something, despite it being the most minute thing in the world, she had a small panic attack, thinking in a ptsd way that it was all her fault. Joe handled her a moment, then handled the boys, then handled her again. Even if he himself was starting to freak out. Mugman's anger issues. Joe, surprisingly, if you hit his limit, has an off the walls type of temper tantrum as well. It's rarely seen, and with good reason. It used to be much more frequent, but with practice, he's reigned it in really well (hence why he doesn't blow up every time Cuphead sends a rocket up in the house.) So, he helps Mugman with his own anger issues. Joe has a lot of brother-like workers at his jobsite. (he's the boss) When he got notice that Cuphead was being born, he tried to start up the truck, but it being the rinky dink piece of trash it is, ofc wouldn't start up in the heat of the moment. They managed to clown car pile together to get him there despite Cuphead already being born, and bros literally tried to get in BEFORE Joe. He had to lock them out for a few to have peace with his immediate family. He let the secondary in later, of course. But goddamn- Hope you like my dumb au headcanons please tell me what you think, it fuels me to make more

Day 3 of Redacted “What Ifs”- Mafia au (part two)
(LONG POST- the first two paragraphs were copy and pasted from part one)
So this was very widely requested, which I was NOT opposed to. Except for the fact that the only couple I had in mind was Gavin and FL. SO- Imma try to explain how I have the main groups set up first, then I’ll explain the individual character’s roles, and after that, I'll Explain how each of the couples met.
The Damn Crew is their own group of freelance mercenaries (Ik I’m so funny). They don’t belong to any clans or packs, they just get hired for different jobs and collect their money. The Shaw Pack is one of the bigger mafia groups as well as The Solaire Clan. Usually, packs and clans don’t get along with each other that well (woah werewolf and vampire drama) but, when David was a kid, Gabe established a peaceful friendship with The Solaire Clan (Gabe and William were buddies).
Also- I’m very sorry for procrastinating. It was the first week of summer for me and I was either very busy or sleeping off the burnout. Enjoy part two!
The Damn Crew was last time, today is The Shaw Pack.
Milo- Whether He’s in his wolf form or not, this man is RUTHLESS to whoever he comes across. He’s protective of his pack and doesn’t trust anyone (a lot less than he does in the og storyline). He prefers his wolf form, though he only gets to use it on certain occasions for jobs. Apart from being emotionless on the job, he’s his usual self in any other situation. After warming up to SH, he would be the biggest softie around them. Personally, I’d think that he would shift a lot more at home since he likes it better. So I can just imagine Milo and SH cuddling with Milo in wolf form and SH buried in his fur.
Sweetheart- Okay so I genuinely can’t see them being anything BUT a badass. Even more, than they are in the og storyline. I’d see them as a spy or hitman instead of a detective. Unlike other hitmen, they’d want to find out more about their target before they pursue anything. They're the kind of people to be in it to make the world better. The money is an added bonus to them. Usually, if they find nothing about the person, they'll let the person know anonymously that someone has it out for them. Otherwise, they'll quickly and quietly make work of their target. Ofc, they're the silent killer type- c'mon they're a stealth!
Asher- He works more on selling the goods. Ofc he'll help organize hitmen and send people off to be taken care of, but for the most part, he makes sure that the things he's selling go to where they need to go. Otherwise, he leads a fairly normal life. For the most part, he prefers to keep Baabe and his job separate. The first person in the pack to know abt him and Baabe was David because- hello? Davids the alpha!??!? Ofc he'd be the only one to know for a while. Only once Milo shared he had a partner in the business, Asher shared he also had a partner with the rest of the pack.
Baaabe- They lead a pretty normal life, they work an office job and have a few jobs on the side. Because of how many jobs they have and the fact they're still in college working towards a doctor's degree in teaching, they're always high on caffeine. It took meeting Asher for them to quit one of their jobs and actually get some sleep. Though, they still try to sneak in a few extra hours of work time. Asher usually finds out and then they both fall asleep on the couch together.
David- The man is pretty much his original character, except a lot colder. That’s honestly all the character’s personalities for this one but, it's fine I'm not being redundant (I hope). Anyways, he's the same guy around his pack with the tsundere asshole vibes. To business partners, he tries not to show any weakness. Best way to say this is that this man has got walls put all the way up to anyone except his pack. Though, around William it’s different. The Solaire clan has been like a second family to him and the pack, especially since Gabe passed. David might be a little more distant to William than he was to his dad, but both he and William tell each other almost everything. To say the least, William is like a second dad without even trying. He’d never replace Gabe, nor would he want to, but when the other needs them, they’ll be there.
Angel- This mf is like the oblivious kinda guy that walks into traffic but instead of cars, it's the mafia. Their friends are somewhat in the business, and therefore Angel is always getting themselves into the stupidest shit. The funny thing is- they’re always very oddly calm about it. 
“Yo, wake up, we kidnapped you”
“Huh? Oh. cool.”
“Aren’t you gonna scream or something?”
“Nah, this happens pretty regularly. I have a presentation tomorrow so I can’t go damaging my pretty lungs.”
Once they meet David, though the conversation goes more like this:
“Hey kid, wake up, we’re gonna kill you”
“Hahaha very funny.”
“Wha- You’re not scared?”
“I’m sorry man, but you fucked up.”
“What do you mean?”
“You mess with me, you mess with the alpha of the Shaw pack.”
“You’re kidding.”
“Not unless you call the man standing behind you an omega.”
Milo and SH are gonna be the narratives for today! I thought for these posts I’d write little narratives for you guys just like I did on the last one so here you go!
Milo and Sweetheart(you)-
It’s been a few weeks since you were offered a recent job. It paid a lot, so you found yourself interested. Why would someone pay such a bounty for a singular guy? You had spent countless hours researching, stalking, and watching him. He was a werewolf. You know that much, but whether he was an innocent caught up in some shit or belonged to the Shaw pack you didn’t know.
The Shaw pack was one of the most famous packs in Dahlia. Not only were they famous in Dahlia, but also among the mafia. They were pretty good at keeping their members, except the main family, secret from the public’s eye. Only second best to the Solaire clan. Though, considering William Solaire only had two progeny and a few hundred more years of experience than David Shaw, it made sense.
You thought to yourself while waiting in his apartment. You knew how to get into places without needing a key, so it wasn’t much of a hassle to get in. Ready for him to come home you held your gun at your waist, “Maybe I got here too early…” you thought as you floated slightly over the floor. If you weren’t able to float around, you’d fall right through the floor. Surprisingly, the werewolf didn’t live with his pack, which made it easier to catch him alone. Though, it also made it harder to get into his apartment since he was on the 5th floor. It was challenging- to say the least- to sit in an elevator while incorporeal.
Finally, you heard the jingling of keys and the lock rattle a few times before the door opened. On instinct, you went Intangible, you were used to not being seen. That was your first mistake, you had given yourself away. He looked around and you got a glimpse of his expression. Poker face. You thought, “It’s now or never,” and pressed your gun against his forehead as you became tangible again. “Milo Greer, are you a part of the Shaw Pack?”
“Who the fuck are you?” Shit. He had the same adorably pissed face he usually wore when out and about.
“Answer the question,” you stared at him with the straightest face you could, “and I’ll decide whether or not to kill you.”
“Why should I?” Of course, he’s the type to push his luck with you.
“Because I have a gun pressed against your forehead, I’m skilled at stealth magic, and I might be armed with even more than just a gun.”
“You’re a stealth?” He smirked at you, you couldn’t tell how he felt about the situation.
You pressed the gun against his forehead, and he finally put his hands up, “Answer the. Fucking. Question.”
“Who's. Asking.”
You sighed, he wouldn’t give up. “If you NEED to know, I’m a hitman. But luckily for an asshole like you, I prefer to do a little research on my targets before I go ahead and kill them,” you watched the rest of him if he tried anything, “Right now, I’m deciding whether or not you’re guilty of the little crimes against a pack that my client accuses you of.”
“I’ve done a lot of things, what pack specifically?” He spoke so calmly… damn his accent was soothing.
“Can’t say. They applied anonymously. Now you need to answer my question.”
He sighed, “Yes. I am a member of the Shaw Pack.”
You could tell he was bracing himself for it, but you pulled away, getting an alcohol wipe from your pocket and hastily wiping the gun off. There was a moment of silence before you looked at him and turned around toward the door.
“Hold up,” you paused mid-step, “You’re not gonna say anything? No explanation?”
“I think it’s pretty clear,” you spoke to him, eager to leave.
“Really? Well then, why don’t you explain to me why the hell you broke into my apartment?”
You sighed again, “Like I said, Someone asked me to kill you, but I respect your pack. So, I gave you a second chance.”
He smirked, “For me? You shouldn’t have!” The sarcastic remark made you want to tell him to fuck off, but something about his expression stopped you.
“You’re not special, I do this for every target. Now can I go?”
“Fine,” you turned around and made your way to the door, “But, if you find out who’s targeting my pack, update me, sweetheart.”
You felt your face flush, but like the entire time you had been talking to him, you stayed calm, “Can’t promise anything, asshole. Though… you’re not too bad yourself,” you turned around and phased through the door. What had you just started? You didn’t know, nor did you really care. This was new and exciting. You couldn’t wait to see what this would turn into.
Asher and Baaabe-
They’d have a pretty normal meeting. Maaaybe it’s exactly the same way they met in the og story, but I’d like to think they met at a coffee shop. Typical, ik, but just hear me out- So, Baabe works at the coffee shop part-time, and Asher likes making coffee runs for the pack every once in a while. By the fifth time, Baabe had memorized the orders everyone usually got and as soon as Asher walked in, Baabe had already rung his order up. After a while, they began to mutually flirt with each other and Asher got Baabe’s number. It took a while for them to find a good day for a date because both of their schedules are insane, but when they finally did, they got to know each other better. Specifically, Asher decided to tell them all about the Shaw pack and that he was a werewolf. This man did not hesitate one bit once they were alone either. (It’s why we love him though)
David and Angel-
Angel being the dumbass they are is always getting into shit because of a past with a few hitmen or whatever. So, when David and Angel meet, it’s a little chaotic. Angel seems way too calm and that freaks David out. This time Angel actually gets hurt and is scared stiff since, miraculously, that's never happened before. David finds them hiding, with a shot leg after everything is over with, and reluctantly takes them to his house. Angel had been in and out of conscience for a while after that. The week or so following that, David and Angel got to know each other and Angel got to see David’s soft side. Eventually, they had to part ways, but Angel eventually found ways to see David more and scored a date with him. From there it’s pretty much the same, with Angel being a dumbass every once in a while and getting caught by a hitman or two again.
THAT'S ALL JESUS THAT TOOK A WHILE
Again, really sorry for this coming so late, things got really crazy there for a second and if I wanted to post part two I really shoulda started with the Solaire clan but whatever- HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOYED THIS HAVE A GREAT DAY :DDDDD

11 || Chasing Ghosts
Series: Trust | Maze Runner (Thomas x OFC)
Word Count: 1.6k
Warnings: none
A/N: Might be a few mistakes
| MASTERLIST |
The next day we keep moving towards the mountains and slowly they become closer but still far. "We'll rest here for the night." Thomas tells us so we all sit down on the ground tired.
"I have one swallow left." I handed Minho my bottle since he ran out earlier while we were walking.
"Thank you." He finishes it off.
We end up having to lay in a circle in the middle of the desert for us to get some sleep. I couldn't sleep that well so I kept rolling over, finally opening my eyes to see a storm.
"Thomas." I tap on his shoulder so he can wake up.
"Look, lights." He smiles, waking up everybody else.
"Okay, but we need to go now. Look." I say making them look back at the storm as it picks up.
We make a run for it to the lights as the storm gets worse. "Minho, be careful." I look back then see him get blown to the side. "Minho! Thomas!" I yell running back to them, passing everyone. As I pass Thomas I grab Minho as Newt and Aris come to help me.
We get inside, putting him back down. "Minho!" We all shake him till he groans, making us relax some.
"What happened?" He asks us.
"You basically got struck by lightning." I say making him think it's cool. "Not funny!" I slam his chest as we help him up. "You scared me." I wrap my arms at him.
"I'm sorry." He hugs me back.
Suddenly cranks show up making us all huddle together trying to stay out of reach. "They're chained up." I say as Thomas keeps an arm around me holding me back.
"I see you meat our Guard dogs." A girl comes over to us. "You guys look like shit." She eyes us.
"Well he just got struck by lightning." I point back at Minho.
"And you're fine. Come on. Follow me. Unless you want to stay with them." She tells us and I get out of Thomas' grip following her. "Jorge wants to meet you." She tells us.
"Who's Jorge?" I ask her.
"You'll see. No one's come out of the Scorch in a long time. You've just got him curious." She tells us.
"Anyone else starting to get a bad feeling about this place?" Newt asks as we are followed.
"Let's just hear him out. See what he has to say." Thomas tells him.
"Do you ever get the feeling the whole world is against you?" Jorge turns to us, making us look at each other.
"I'm gonna say yes." I speak up, making Thomas give me a look.
"Three questions. Where did you come from? Where are you going? How can I profit?" Jorge asks us.
"We're headed for the mountains. Looking for the Right Arm." I say making the men laugh.
"You've looking for ghosts, you mean. Question number two. Where did you come from?" He makes us look at each other.
"That's our business." Minho tells him, making the men all group up on us, grabbing us.
Two men force my head down and the girl scans the back of my neck. "What are you doing to her?" Thomas shouts.
"Calm down you big baby. I'm not hurting her." She tells him and we're all let go.
"I'm sorry, mija. Looks like you're tagged. You came from Wicked. Which means...you're very valuable." He tells us and we all end up getting strung up by our feet dangling over an over area.
"Good plan, Thomas. Just hear what the man has to say. Really working out for us." Minho tells him.
"Oh, shut up, Minho. Maybe I can reach the rope." Thomas says so he, me, and Minho try but fail.
"Enjoying the view?" Jorge asks us.
"What the hell do you want?" I ask him.
"That is the question. My men want to sell you back to Wicked. Life has taught them to think small. I'm not like that. Something tells me that you're not either." He tells me and Thomas.
"Is the blood rushing to my head or is this shank not making any sense?" Minho asks.
"Tell me what you know about the Right Arm." Jorge asks us.
"Thought you said they were ghosts?" Newt asks him.
"I happen to believe in ghosts. Especially when I hear them chattering on the airwaves. You tell me what you know and maybe we can make a deal." He tells us.
"We don't know much." Thomas tells him and he makes us fall some. "They're hiding in the mountains. And they attacked Wicked. They got a bunch of kids. That's it. That's all we know." Thomas tells the man and he starts to leave us. "You're not going to help us?" Thomas asks the man and he leaves.
"What are you doing Ellie?" Newt asks as I try swinging myself.
"Trying to swing to the bar over there, help me." I tell them.
Finally we get me to the bar and pull the lever more so I can untie myself then help the others down. "We gotta hurry." I say as we hear Janson.
As one of the guys tries to take us but Thomas tries to fight back then the girl shoots him telling us to follow her so we do.
"Brenda, hurry." Jorge tells her and we see we have to zip line.
"Go go go." I tell the guys making them go ahead of me. "Brenda! Where are you going?" She runs off and I follow her.
"Elizabeth!" Thomas yells my name.
"I gotta get something important to me." She runs to a desk.
"We have to hurry. Look fast." I tell her as Thomas joins us.
"I got it." She said, making Thomas tell us to come on.
As we run to leave, we see Wicked soldiers making us run the other direction. We dodge the shoots then have to make our way across beams since there was nowhere else to go.
"Be careful Lizzie." Thomas says as I go in front of him following Brenda.
"I hate heights!" I yell looking at the beam trying to go fast.
As the song ends the building starts to go down. "Thomas! Come on!" We both yell at him.
"Lizzie!" Thomas yells as I slightly trip but he helps me catch myself.
"Jump!" Brenda yells and I just follow Thomas.
"Sorry." I groan as I fall into Thomas, and as the elevator comes down Thomas pulls me with him as he jumps out.
"Thanks, Tommy." I get off him.
The three of us cough from all the dirt and dust. "You guys okay?" Brenda asks us.
"Oh, yeah, great." Thomas tells her. "No, no. How are we gonna get back to the others?" Thomas asks Brenda.
"Relax. I'm gonna get us out of here." She gives us a flashlight.
"Why are you helping us?" Thomas asks her.
"Really Thomas? Just be thankful for her and Jorge." I give him a look.
"Thank you but trust me, it's not my idea. Jorge seems to think you guys are our ticket to the safe haven." She tells us.
"The what?" He asks.
"You know, paradise. Safe from the sun, free of infection. Supposedly, the Right Arm's been taking kids there for years. Immunes, anyway." She gets up.
"And you know where that is?" I ask her.
"No. But Jorge knows a guy. Marcus. He used to smuggle kids up into the mountains. If Jorge made it out that's where he'll be taking your friends." She tells us.
"If he made it out?" Thomas repeats.
"You know what? You two ask a lot of questions. Especially you. Can you just come over here and help me with this? Please." We look at each other then go over to help her.
As we get the top off we hear distant yelling. "Well, that doesn't sound good." I look at the two.
"Yeah. Down here they'll be full term. Let's go." She jumps down then we follow. "I think it's this way." Brenda says as we come to a fork in the road.
"You think?" I say but we follow her.
"Do people live down here?" Thomas asks her.
"The Solar Storms forced people underground. Jorge the says there's settlements all over these tunnels." She explains to us.
"So, what about Jorge? Is he your father?" Thomas asks, making me hit him.
"Close enough. Truth is, I don't really know what he is. He's just always been there. And I've always done what he's asked me to do no matter how stupid." She explains.

Hi hello those ships asks are so much fun!! So here's a bunch: 11, 22, 27 for Vanyla/Leliana, 3+13 for Sky and Atton if you feel like it, 7+24 for Rosemary/Fenris, and 12-15 for Meg/Ashley? <3 WAIT also 1, 23, 30 for Aelisay/Bull
aHHHh thank you!! my blorbos and THEIR blorbos <3 (and right?? these are so fun skdfgj I love answering these, even if they take me a hot minute)
putting under a cut bc I ramble <3
Vanyla/Leliana
11. What good do they bring out in each other?
I think that what Leliana brings out of Vanyla is more obvious than the other way around, for one thing. Vanyla is way nicer and softer when Leliana is around, puts more effort into not being quite so sharp and mean as she normally is. (which, in all fairness, is a thing that she learns in general during the Blight, but Leli brings it out more often lol.)
on Leliana's end, Vanyla helps her to be more accepting and at peace with herself and what she's done. Vanyla is very firm that no matter what Leli's done in the past, it doesn't dictate who she is now, and that Marjolaine's comments were worthless, cruel jabs to lower her guard.
22. What's different about their backgrounds? Do those differences affect the relationship?
so you've got Leliana, orphan who was raised by a noblewoman turned bard turned runaway turned Chantry sister. Vanyla, meanwhile, was a noblewoman who lived in the total lap of luxury until very recently. I wanna say that it affects the relationship, but it also doesn't? as in - obviously they have different backgrounds that shaped their views on the world. I can only speak for Vanny since she's my OC, ofc, but she was deeply spoiled and self-absorbed before becoming a Warden. this woman stomped her foot and threw a fit the first time she had to actually pay for something and didn't have the coin or family name to her name. (Alistair saw it. he's been judging her for that moment ever since.)
so it affects her relationship w Leliana, but it also affects, like, everything about the Blight and her growing up as a person during it, lol. does that make sense?? learning to be less spoiled and arrogant was a big thing for her. listening to Leliana talk about her background might be one of the first times Vanyla gave much of a thought to the lives of her castle's servants, and it was a deeply uncomfortable realization that kept her up that night.
27. What interests do they share? For interests they don't share, do they ever participate anyway?
fun fact: they actually first bonded w each other because they were talking about shoes or hair, lol. they're both very feminine and fashionable, they love pretty frilly things and shoes. Vanyla is a proud Fereldan ofc, but if there's anything Orlais does better in her opinion, it's the shoes. and fashion. they go shopping together a lot whenever they're in Denerim or a major city that allows it, and though the Blight probably isn't the best time to lug around some cute dresses like that... it's fine, it's all fine, it's going to a good cause. the cause of looking great. :^)
Vanyla also loves reading and whatever the Thedosian equivalent of brain teasers are, and I would hazard a guess that Leliana enjoys those as well? yeah.
Sky/Atton (rest assured that I am always down to talk about them skdfjg I'm just lazy and haven't added the KOTOR crew to my OC page yet bc idk what to do for images?? somebody remind me to get on that sometime)
3. What's their favorite thing to tease each other about?
idk if they have a favorite thing, but they affectionately tease each other about a fair amount? piloting skills, pazaak skills, Force talents, you name it. Sky's glowing red eyes came up in conversation once when it was pitch black and Atton was able to see her anyway. gotta love the Chiss.
13. How do they express love for each other? Do they have compatible love languages?
I talked about it a bit on my old blog, but a thing before I answer bc I feel like it affects it: they never actually get together. they're in love w each other, yeah, and I think they spend their lives together after Sky returns from finding Revan, but it's strictly in this officially platonic capacity. they're best friends who understand each other and their respective dark sides better than anybody, they're loyal to each other and would die for the other, but there's also... never any romantic resolution to their relationship. neither of them can forgive themselves for what they've done enough to let themself be loved, I think. idk if I'm explaining it well haha. and in Sky's case, she doesn't know if Atton would actually want to be with her or if the Force bonds would make him fall for her. it's complicated.
anyway! to answer the actual question! I would peg them as both being quality time and acts of service - the former bc, well, they spend p much all their time together when Sky gets back from finding Revan and she reconciles with Atton. the latter bc they might never actually say the words "I'm in love with you" to each other and stay officially platonic, but they still do what they can for each other anyway. nobody has their back like the other does.
Rosemary/Fenris
7. What's their most and least favorite thing about each other?
for Rosemary: man, what didn't she like about him? his strength, his sense of humor, his cleverness, she loved p much everything. his stance on mages caused some friction, but they were able to come around and see each other's point of view after a while.
for Fenris: I'd say that he loved her compassion and humor most of all, and that what he liked the least was how much she was unable to stop blaming herself for bad things that weren't her fault. :/
24. How did they fall for each other?
I feel like they were both attracted to each other from the start, but falling in love was a thing that happened gradually over the years as they became friends and got to really know each other. idk if there was any one big event that prompted it, but they both became much more aware of their own feelings and started to explore the possibility of a romance between each other just a bit before act 2 started.
Meg/Ashley
12. What struggle have they seen each other through?
*gestures to the whole Reaper thing*
but that's a cheap answer sdkfghsjgk. Virmire is a heavy one for them both - they were both close friends with Kaidan, and his loss never really stopped being painful. it just became easier to deal with.
Meg had to deal with her former gang on Earth becoming xenophobic as they pushed into space, as well as learning more of the circumstances behind Akuze, and Ashley was present for both of those. Ashley had to deal with the loss of her sister's husband, which Meg was there for. on a much, MUCH lighter note - there was some anxiety and fear about the rules and regulations back in ME1, but by the time ME3 rolled around, they both decided they didn't care. they could be written up when the Reapers were gone.
13. How do they express love for each other? Do they have compatible love languages?
not verbally, for one thing. they'll both say it in big moments, I think, but otherwise they don't say "I love you" as much as other couples might. not that they don't feel it, ofc, it's just not who they are (and Meg in particular has a very hard time verbalizing how she feels). so I'd peg them as quality time and acts of service? spending a lot of time together while going out of their way to do things for the other that'll make her life easier.
14. What little things remind them of each other?
Meg re: Ashley: phoenix armor, shotguns (or boomsticks, as they're lovingly called), poetry, discussions of faith
Ashley re: Meg: the color pink, pretty shoes and fashion in general, biotic charges, hilariously deadpan/stoic responses to weird stuff
15. What habits or characteristics have they picked up from each other?
idk if this one counts as a habit, but Meg's become a lot more expressive after she and Ashley have been together for a while. she's still largely a stoic person lol, but she shows emotions more often than she used to. also she smiles more, which takes everybody by surprise the first time that happens.
Ashley feels a little bit harder to pin down? maybe a bit of Meg's rather clipped way of speaking, but that's about all I can think of? 🤔 she doesn't really strike me as the type to easily pick up stuff from others, she's very uniquely herself lol.
Ealisay/Bull
1. What do they think of each other's family? And how does the family feel?
the Ostwick clan just loves that one :^D jk no uh, the Trevelyan family isn't terribly thrilled as a whole? Ealisay's parents would really rather that she agree to marry some nice noble and secure an alliance, but I'm also reasonably sure there's jack squat they can do about it since their kid is LITERALLY the Herald of Andraste. they come to be more accepting over time, and even approve a little bc Ealisay is obviously happy, but it takes a bit for them to get there. Ealisay's siblings are kind of mixed - at least one is the same as their parents, at least one just plain doesn't care and is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ about it, and I know Ealisay has a mage twin brother (you heard it here first, folks) who's happy for her. that said, Ealisay isn't really close to her family in general and doesn't actively seek their approval anymore. she's happy with Bull, and that's what matters to her. I get the impression that Bull probably wouldn't want to get involved with that scene?? which works fine for Ealisay, bc she doesn't really want to get involved anymore either.
long paragraph woo
on Bull's end, obviously biological family is trickier bc the Qun but! he sure does have the Chargers! and Ealisay gets along with them VERY well, they're family as far as they're both concerned. complete with meddling sister vibes as she plays matchmaker for Krem and Maryden.
23. What was their first impression of each other?
Ealisay internally: m u s c l e s
basically that he was A) enormous B) good in a fight C) hot D) BIG MUSCLES. idk if it's been mentioned before but that girl is heart eyes for big muscles. it's hot. she also thought he seemed like he'd be enjoyable to have around, just from his general demeanor, so she liked him p much right away? admitting that he was a Ben-Hassrath didn't really deter her lol, she thought it was nice that he was upfront and didn't really think about that until waaaay later.
on Bull's end, I will assume that he also noticed Ealisay being good in a fight bc that lady is a solid tank lol. also that she was... ehh "silly" isn't the right word, but not as serious as one might assume the Herald of Andraste to be? he knew who she was right away, ofc, but she was a lot more relaxed and playful than one might have assumed a noblewoman turned Herald to be.
30. Where is their relationship the strongest?
w their muscles bc they're both buff warriors 💪🐮💪👩
jk no, I'm gonna say that it's in how plain supportive they are of each other? Bull's is obvious from his romance, how much he goes out of his way to help the Inquisitor feel good and grounded, and I love him for it (as does Ealisay). Ealisay is similar in that regard - she's the first to tell him that he's a good man without the Qun and that he doesn't need it to be a good person, she'll just shrug and pick up the stick and go to town when he's doing those fear exercises, she distracts him so he'll have a nice birthday surprise even tho they both know he knows what the Chargers are doing. they're very ride or die for each other.

Hi! Are you still open for match up Obey me? I want to take a request BUT! ofc if you don't mind and not tired ( don't forget to rest well dear! ) Okay! I'll start by introducing myself, Pronouns are She/They/Them Pansexual and someone who has an ISFP personality. I personally am someone who is neutral. Energetic and Calm at the same time and I have experience (let's just say I'm a free psychologist for my friends) and knowledge as a psychologist. I don't really like being in crowded and noisy crowds but I can handle it and because of demands that make me HAVE to be in it so... I'm getting used to it, I might be the type of person who easily reconciles with the past and easily adapts to new environments, I'm not the type of person who likes to find trouble or get stuck in it so I tend to stay away from it but if it has anything to do with it with someone I know/care about then I should AT LEAST try to straighten that out if it doesn't work? Well, let's say I have to throw my hands, I'm an understanding and nosy person regardless of the situation :'∆ I want to make people feel better! So that's why I'm learning psychologist thingy :D I'm a hard worker but the moment I decide to take a break, no one can stop me! (maybe) If I'm angry, I'll end up sad somehow, but I refuse to cry! nobody's perfect and neither am I. I have a problem being a bit rude to someone I consider bad who I don't even know very well, I easily belittle other people too... I feel bad now
my view on love? huh, love in a platonic view I think is an incomparable love for the person you care about whoever it is for you! but my view of love romantically? is like a small part of your heart that is finally filled and a feeling that you have to take care of, I like to do whatever my partner likes and the type of person who pays attention to them, ideal type? with anyone who makes me fall in love :) but i would melt if they had a gentleman attitude and giving me a headpat or any physical affection? Please they're too perfect to me! And I want to treat my lover whatever makes them comfortable, and for obey me character? Hmm I don't think I'm suit to solomon and Simeon, I love them platonicly and I think they love me Platonicly back ( give me a brothers like them >:'/ oh yeah! I almost forgot i can sign language so I will do some sign language to my Lovers whether they understand or not (funny if they don't they won't know that I said 'I'm yours' in sign language)
I like all kinds of music and reading history from all corners of the world that I find interesting, I'm not picky about food. i eat everything :v i also like to collect memorable photos ( even the embarrassing ones ) i love and hate animals at the same time, my style of dress? fashionable and tomboyish, i like pearls it's beautiful and stunning I also have a pearl necklace that my sister gave me and I always wear it (I was very moved when she gave it)
Physical characteristics? 5'0 tall, Tan skin, Shoulder length brown hair, mole above my eyebrow and hazel eyes, and 1 heart ( lol)
and that's all! Have a nice day or Sweet dream dear, take a good rest a talented writer must have a good rest! 👋 bye~
You are just as cute as a button and as elegant as the kitsune my darling! And I have a match made in hell for you~.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I match you with…
Lucifer!
Tumblr media
——————————-
So you asked for a brother like Solomon and Simeon and to be honest, it’s literally just Lucifer all over. Like this has to be a perfect match for you my darling. You both fit the vibes so well together and basically do the same thing day in and out. Why not combine those powers together to become the ultimate powerhouse couple?
Let’s admit it: Lucifer and you did NOT get along at the beginning. This demon is literally the embodiment of Pride and you’re a stubborn donkey when it comes to putting your nose into other people’s businesses, especially when they drag you into it. Nothing was ever just a conversation, it was a whole ass event every time the two of you were in a room and talking. Satan turned it into a reality show for himself due to the aggressive amounts of drama that resulted in it just by you two existing. After the “Attic Incident” something changed between you two, and ultimately leads you down to your relationship with him after what Satan would call it, “boorish mating ritual of heightened aggression”
Enjoys that he’s not the one having to always corral his brothers around and manage them, he’s got backup on that front and even better? Pacts definitely help the going, less so when you don’t specify enough and pull him into the shenanigans. But Lucifer isn’t always making you manage his brothers, he’s personally gotta have some responsibility over them when you’re barely managing them effectively due to the constant wear and tear of your energy. But he sees you help his brothers in easy he could never let his pride down long enough to do in all his years of living with them. And to that, he’s eternally grateful for you helping his brothers become the best demon versions they can be for demons
Despite being alive for so long, Lucifer barely has any time for personally recreational activities such as expanding his languages. I mean, he definitely smart enough to figure out most human languages given that he must know more than enough for Lord Diavolo and for his dreams to come to full fruition, but he definitely didn’t know American Sign Language (ASL) at first. He might’ve seen it during his time picking out exchange student resumes, but it’s canon that he just kind of gave up and showed Lord Diavolo the first one he picked up after a gust of wind blew all the stacks of papers everywhere. My guess is that he didn’t really see your ASL certification on your paper so he absolutely doesn’t realize this for a good long while. When you do start signing in front of him, he’s confused but not like “Oh woah!” it’s more of a “what the hell” kind of light bulb moment. He eventually learns ASL but for awhile you’re able to get away with telling him super embarrassing things you’d never say out loud. But will he let you know once he’s fluent enough to know what you’re signing to him? Maybe he’ll let it go on for a little while longer, he certainly enjoys the praise you give him~
Doesn’t always love that you try to capture everything in pictures. He’s literally had wrestling matches with you over pictures he deemed too embarrassing to ever exist but due to your insistence, occasionally an awkward pic here and there makes it through inspections. In the end of it all, Lucifer loves that you have memories in all your photo galleries, even the ones he wishes weren’t taken, they remind him that you’re there with him and not anywhere else
Definitely likes that he’s bigger than you and you’re such a small human being. I feel like he’s about 6 foot something, but definitely not on the short side compared to the normal human (as normal as you can get) exchange student. Finds it very easy to pick you up and take you wherever he wishes. Very effective way to get you to shut up if your having arguments, especially the ones that get him more wound up than usual~
Will get you matching earrings to help make your pearl necklace have that much more meaning every time you look at it. He thinks all things gifted by siblings should be treasured and he definitely doesn’t want that pearl necklace to go to waste. It should be shown off every chance you get, he might get just a tad bit excited and prideful when he gets a chance to show his lovely partner off
===================
And the follow ups are:
Satan
And
Barbatos
——————————-
And that’s all folks!

TRC AU where the vampire twins have been part of the Tsubasa gang's journey from the very beginning.
Ohh this is intriguing. I won't be going too much into TRC concrete plot or relationship between TRC main gang themselves, I'll focus mostly on Subaru and Kamui (and SubKam):
Paying with their blood isn't enough for twins to hop dimensions so Yuuko suggests they travel with TRC crew. Kamui is instantly distrustful of them (nothing person, he's just vigilant like that) but even Subaru is slightly on guard. After all, person who he trusted just betrayed him and tried to kill him, forcing twins to be on a run.Seeing as they have no option other than accept, they begin traveling with Syaoran, Sakura, Fai, Kurogane and Mokona.
When they arrive to Hanshin republic twins see Sorata and Arashi and are instantly reminded of ones from their world. Of course, Sorata and Arashi from this world don't recognize them; since it's their first world, Subaru get extra melancholic and lonely because of that. Kamui gets frustrated too but mostly beause of Subaru's melancholy and fact they're surrounded by strangers (TRC gang). However it's in this world where all six of them are getting to know each other (ofc minus twins and Syaoran -> Sakura). They instantly bond with Mokona however, Kamui can’t say no to that cuteness and being doted on. Mokona compares him to a hissing kitten. Kamui blushes and is about to join Kurogane’s mission of killing that little thing - but it’s first time he saw Subaru laugh since they stated being on run, so Kamui lets it slide. He’s a hissing kitten from there on.
In Koryo and Fog country Subaru and Kamui begin forming bonds with rest of crew. Since Fai is shady af in this part, Kamui takes a subtle disliking on him because see what happened last time they trusted someone shady? Subaru consoles Kamui and suggests they give Fai a chance (to which Kamui hisses even more but he can't really be mad at Subaru). Fortunately for Kamui, Subaru spends more time with Syaoran and Sakura; Kamui follows as well and he feels like they're safe with those two teenagers. Twins are hiding fact that they're vampires although, mainly because they aren't sure if they'll be hunted down and how TRC crew would react. Plus Kamui is worried something like what happened with Seishirou would happened again and someone would get vampire blood from them. Nonetheless, Kurogane suspects something isn't as it seems about twins. Something feels off. just like with Fai, he won't hold back on calling Kamui out on 'moving so fast' or 'never seen eating human food' and so on. Kamui avoids him because of those call outs. Twin feed on each other only, in complete privacy so noone knows.
It's in Outo that things go down. Since Kamui is more battle-inclined than Subaru, Fai suggests Subaru stays behind and helps with Cat eye cafe while Kamui helps Syaoran and Kurogane fight against demons (Kamui gets called hissing kitten and Subaru docile puppy). Nonetheless neither of twins can shake sense that something just feels off about Outo. Kamui is worried something really bad might happen but Subaru reassures him everything would be fine; he cant stand seeing his twin anxious like that. Then one day Syaoran returns to cafe saying he ran into his ex-teacher, Seishirou. Last bit of hope vanishes when Syaoran retells story of how they met and how he’s searching for vampire twins. Seeing as how pale and anxious twins became, Kurogane and Fai put two and two together but kept realization between themselves.
Of course twins want to leave world asap but there’s a catch: Sakura’s feather in still somewhere in country. Kamui denies they’re vampires upon asking but even he knows it’s inane to conceal truth any longer. Gang agrees to stay in world few more days the most and if feather isn’t found in that time, they’ll leave for safety reasons. Kamui refused to leave Subaru’s side in meantime; that night instead of going to his room Kamui said he’ll sleep by Subaru’s bedside. Subaru insisted Kamui shouldn’t sleep on floor when they shared same bed when younger countless times before. So they cuddle and reassure each other, eventually falling asleep in each other’s embrace; still, neither of them can deny that something fees different from how they cuddled before. Why bumping heart and fuzzy feeling within chest? Still, they have much more pressing issue at hand than sources of said warm fuzzy feelings and mushy thoughts.
Since they’re connected via blood, Seishirou manages to locate Subaru and Cat eye cafe next day. Full blown fight breaks out. Fai goes out first just like in manga; Seishirou removes him as he has no business with him. So that leaves twins (and Sakura, who was told to escape and seek Kurogane and Syaoran) with Seishirou. They fight but Subaru is more focused on protecting Kamui than injuring Seishirou (for various reasons). In the end Seishirou fake-attacks Suabru, causing Kamui to attack recklessly; just as Seishirou is about to deliver a blow to Kamui, Subaru pushes him out of way and gets pierced by scythe instead. He ‘dies’ and transports to Edonis where Fai and Chitose explain everything about Outo. Of course, Kamui knows none of that and thinks Subaru is really dead - he goes berserk. Kurogane and Syaoran arrive in meantime and Outo slowly dissolves. Seeing how fiery and none-human Kamui is fighting, Crew concludes twins are vampires. Even if Seishirou caught up with twins, he never imagined they wouldn’t be alone. As it’s 1-vs-5, he has no choice other than to leave; but he threatens he’ll never abandon what is ‘his’. Ofc Kamui’s blood boil when he hears that hunter refer to his twin like that (and he’s still afraid for Subaru’s safety), but there’s more to ire than protectiveness. Twins reunite and Kamui weeps in Subaru’s arms how he thought he was dead. TRC crew gives them a minute of privacy before leaving Edonis. Subaru reassures him and cuddles closer; they talk, faces inches apart. Magnetic pull is drawing them together, Subaru impulsively leans in to - Fai accidentally interrupts them; he knows what has almost happened between twins but chooses not to comment or tell others.
In Idol country they sort of catch a break. Twins disclose some of history they share with Seishirou and why he’s hunting them down. Inconvinince for all of them yes, but Kurogane says he’ll give them a hand in battle if it comes to that (since he took personal disliking on Seishirou; very valid of you Kurogane). Subaru and Kamui are glued to each other after Outo accident but neither of them can deny how atmosphere between them shifted; there is tension lingering. Kurogane, Fai and Mokona notice it too, but only Fai knows what that is truly about. Just like with rest of crew, he’s trying to keep emotional distance but not be too obvious about it so Fai decides it’s better for him not to meddle. Mokona asks Subaru why he’s being so jumpy whenever Kamui touches him now, but Subaru can’t give a proper answer; neither to himself nor Mokona. She asks Kamui in private too, he can’t answer either.

Ooooo can you tell us more about the two avvar and the chasined twins on your pirate crew?
Also the Raven's crew would love to sail and raid some ships with your pirates!
Thanks so much for asking, Raven <3 seriously, asks are like free serotonin boosts
It's all very messy since the characters are from an old original story (ofc I've never actually written it 🙃) of mine and I still can't figure out some of their roles (and names!!! I can't just have a chasind warrior named James xjsshhdbc) in this AU so sorry for the ramble lol
I'll start with the Avvar mage - so, technically Aurora isn't Avvar, she was adopted by Osvald, an Avvar mercenary, when she was 12 so she knows their culture very well. "Family is more than blood" - that's what her father and brother would say, they both consider her their family and a full-fledged member of the community. I actually wrote a short bio for her a week ago so I guess it'd be best if I just pasted it here, it sums up her character quite well:
"A sassy church girl turned notorious criminal. Aurora's always been a problem child, forever angry and disappointed with the whole world - growing up in a Catholic Orphanage certainly didn't help. She started stealing at a young age, mainly to spite sister Anita who "decided she was evil in the very moment she crossed the threshold of the orphanage" and "did everything she could to bring her down", as Aurora would say. Years later, when her adoptive father was killed, Aurora and her step brother, Hal teamed up with a group of local criminals led by Aurora's old friend. In Dragon Age AU Aurora grew up in an orphanage run by the Chantry. She was supposed to become a Templar but she's never completed her training - her magical abilities manifested when she killed a man who'd been abusing her best friend, Delphina, for years. She was sentenced to the Rite of Tranquility but she managed to escape the Circle. An Avvar mercenary took her in - she spent the rest of her teenage years in an Avvar settlement where she finally felt at home. After the death of their father, she and Hal joined a group of pirates led by Jan."
Aurora is the group's mage but she only knows a handful of spells - she's never received any formal training and Osvald wanted to keep her abilities secret, she was a wanted apostate after all. He wanted a better, peaceful life for both of his children but none of them wanted the same thing. Osvald used to be quite a famous dragon hunter back when he was younger and Hal, his son, wanted to become one as well. As for Aurora - well, she's always been a magnet for trouble. Osvald died trying to protect her from the Templars, she and Hal managed to escape. They wanted revenge but, obviously, stood no chance against the Order. Aarne and Iivo, the Chasind twins, promised to help them, they've been roaming Thedas looking for allies and trying to stay away from the Templars for as long as they could. That's when they met their future friends and associates - an ex-Orlesian bard named Maria, a Qunari outcast Natzan, his companion from Tevinter Rita and a monk turned pirate. His name is Jan and, somehow, he's Aurora's partner but it's a long story so I'm gonna stop right there before I write a 939933848484838383 word essay :')
As for the twins - they're total opposites but they're extremely loyal to each other, at least Iivo is, Aarn is an ugly backstabber, loyal only to himself but Iivo doesn't know it yet. Aarne is a grumpy, proud and deceitful type of person, Iivo might also be a grump but he has a heart of gold. They're both rather quiet, people often feel intimidated by them. They're very skilled warriors, together they're almost unstoppable. Aarne was trained by Osvald, he even helped him kill a dragon once. Actually, he agreed to help Hal and Aurora out of respect for Osvald, he felt like he owed this to his old mentor. He was also Aurora's close friend and sort of big brother, he taught her a lot, they sparred many times back when Aurora was still a teenager.
Aurora and Hal's relationship is a mess so I'm not going to get into it right now but they used to be very close before their father's death, then hal started blaming her for everything that happened, then she stabbed him in the back and so on. There was too much anger and too many words unsaid, they both went their own ways and never really reunited after that, even though they both regretted it in the end. Jan and natzan tried their best to help them but yeah, no, just sit down and talk it's not that hard 🙃

Something very funny about Howl and Sophie is that when they're apart they seem at first glance to be One Of Those couples who act like marriage is a prison sentence with your worst enemy, but they both get extremely offended if anyone points out that the traits they're describing in their spouse are generally considered negative
