i've been thinking sm about how lip wanted to be a dad so bad and how it would be soooo different if he had a girl who treated him right and was loyal and sweet
“emmie girl, are you excited to see daddy?”
your daughter squeals and babbles, “dad-dy!” her little hands waving in the air, one grasping onto your chin. you look around the commons, sighting a familiar head of messy curls and heading over to him.
“who’s that, hm?” you ask little emily, pointing out her daddy where he sits at a table outside the student center. as you get closer your daughter recognizes lip, squealing and squirming to be put down so she can run to him. you smile.
“go get ‘im emmie,” you murmur, pressing a quick kiss to the crown of her head before placing her steady little feet on the ground. she toddles over with adorable determination, shrieking in excitement until lip’s head is turning at the commotion. his jaw drops slightly and his eyes light up, flitting from his baby girl up to you, then back down.
"da- da-ddy!" emily stumbles on her path but lip catches her easily, lifting her up and spinning her around.
"what's up eminem! how's my girl, huh? didya miss me?" he smothers her little face with sweet kisses, listening to the sounds of her baby giggles. the two of them are so sweet, lip and his baby girl. he loves her so much. you know how much he misses his sweet emily- and you too- when he's away at school.
"look!" emily points with one pudgy finger at the bandaid on her knee. "kitty!"
"aw, y'scraped it sweets?" he asks, ever attentive. emily nods her head, grabbing onto his curls. "lemme kiss it better." he flips emily on her tummy, holding her secure and high above his head. he blows a raspberry on the squish of her knee, them smothers her with sugars.
"ducky ducky!" emily points at you, holding her little stuffed duck. it was a present from her daddy, and she never went anywhere without it.
"yeah? y'want ducky?"
you smile, coming to his side and placing ducky in her waiting hands. lip hikes emily up on his hip, kissing her, then ducky on the head. one strong arm wraps around your waist, pulling you in to press one final, sweet kiss to your temple.
"thank you baby. jus' what i needed, time with my girls.
end.

Still a bit busy but I wanted to keep making some Agere content since I haven’t had much of a chance! And what better show to give Headcanons for the freshly released Hazbin Hotel?
Tumblr media
Hazbin Hotel Age Regression Headcanons
Tumblr media
Charlie Morningstar
•A flip, with a slight lean towards being a regressor!
•She prefers taking care of others then being taken care of herself, even if she knows it’s probably good for her.
•Her age range when she’s little is around 3-6, she doesn’t like feeling really small.
•She absolutely LOVES toys! Any toys, stuffies, action figures, plastic toys, she could play with them for hours and never get bored.
•While that’s some of her main little gear, she also has a pair of PJ’s, a sippy cup and a white paci for when she’s small.
•Talkative while little, but not to the point of babbling. She still has a lisp though (Vaggie thinks it’s adorable).
•Charlie hates being alone when she’s little, she’s always trying to be near someone. She also appreciated physical touch but it isn’t a must for her.
•Can be a bit of a stubborn little, mainly around toys and nap time.
•Can be really emotional when she’s little, like how she was when Angel forgave her (that scene was so agere coded)
•Loves nicknames, her favourites are Princess, Little Ducky (from Lucifer), Char-Char!
•Had play-dates with Razzle and Dazzle (they gotta look after her!)
•Her main caregiver is Vaggie, with some of the other hotel members acting as a babysitter.
•And oh my stars, when she’s a caregiver-
•Her littles are getting absolutely spoiled rotten, it doesn’t matter what they want, Charlie is getting it for them (as long as it’s kid friendly)
•A bit of a hands on caregiver, ready to give her littles anything they need!
•They want snacks? She’s got it. Need a nap? She’s already got a bedtime story. Wanna stay up late and keep playing? Well, she’s sure no one will find out…
•She has a very hard time saying no to littles, but will do if she knows it will help them in the long run.
•Tries to mix in some rehabilitation with the hotel members when they’re little, but it doesn’t work too well.
•Always makes sure to respond to the little talking, even if it’s just babbling.
‘Awabah-ababa!’
‘Mhmm, oh that’s really interesting little one!’
•Treats her littles so softly, she never ever raises her voice
•To sum it, if you want to be absolutely spoiled and taken care of, Charlie’s your girl.
Tumblr media
Vaggie
•Vaggie is a flip, with a caregiver lean! Though she can regress pretty heavily.
•She normally regresses when she’s stressed, with her age range being anywhere from 1-7 depending on her mood!
•Is surprisingly shy and quiet when little, she doesn’t like talking that much because of her own lisp. Mainly communicates through pointing and various gestures.
•Wants to be around Charlie so bad when she’s regressed, Pentious tried to hold her once when Charlie when to get her something and she started crying.
•Scared of the dark when she’s little.
•She’s not big on playing when regressed, she just wants a couple hours when she can relax and be taken care of.
•Speaking of, she loves having her hair brushes when she’s little (and big honestly), she finds it super relaxing!
•An odd piece of little gear she has a lava lamp, since she’s somewhat moth related, she loves looking at lights and could stare at a lava lamp for hours.
•Other then that, she has some comfy clothes, a purple pacifier and a bottle for when she’s feeling extra tiny.
•Not as much of a fan of nicknames but still likes them. Her favourites are, ‘Baby, Precious and Little one.’
•She also has small plushie of a moth to help her go to sleep!
•Her caregiver is Charlie and she’ll occasionally let Husk babysit, but that’s very rare.
•Now, onto the Caregiver. She’s canonically bad with kids, but I imagine she learned to try and deal with littles, especially after learning Charlie regresses.
•And oh my God, she thinks Charlie is absolutely precious. She cannot get enough of being with the girl when she’s tiny.
•Had to physically hold back aww’ing and squeezing the life out of her.
•Likes holding and coddling Charlie, who also loves the attention!
•Can be a stern caregiver with things like safety and bedtime, but is usually more lenient.
•She only acts stern if it’ll help the little out more.
•Not good at talking to littles, but makes an effort, and usually fails. She’s able to understand what they want though and normally had no problem helping them out.
•Vaggie keeps a lot of her little’s gear on her at all times, she doesn’t want to leave them alone and end up having them get hurt.
•She’s mainly Charlie’s caregiver, but doesn’t mind babysitting Niffty, Angel or even Pentious at times!
•Not good with giving nicknames to littles and normally sticks to, ‘Little one, Big Girl/Boy/Kid or Baby’ depending on their age range!
Tumblr media
Angel Dust
•Once again, a flip with a regressor lean!
•He’s an involuntary regressor and a sleep regressor! He normally regressed due to stress from his job, general bad mood swings or just from being super tired.
•He has an age range of 2-5.
•Whenever he does regress from being in a bad mood, he gets really frustrated for not being able to ‘keep his regression in check’ which normally ends in a crying fit in his room.
•It took him a long time for him to ever regress in front of someone at the hotel, and even then it wasn’t voluntary. Charlie just followed him up to his room after he ran up there after work.
•And oh, was it mortifying for him. Charlie made sure to reassure the boy, being able to get through to him a little easier when he was small, but Angel was still a little scared of her making a big deal out of this.
•And for the most part, she didn’t! She had a quick talk with him the day after to make sure he had a caregiver if he really needed one, and he does!
•Cherri Bomb is Angel’s babysitter for once he’s regressed, and she doesn’t fully understand it, but knows to tone herself down whenever he’s small.
•Calls him ‘sweetie’ or ‘honey as a nickname, and holds his hand if he gets scared.
•Whenever he’s depressed while little, she’ll just lay with them until he feels better or falls asleep.
•Can be a brat when he doesn’t get his way, but only throws tantrums if he’s really small. It usually doesn’t get to that point though, he feels too immature with Cherri and Charlie is very understanding.
•After he’s calmed down, he normally whispers a little ‘sorry’
•Didn’t have much little gear before the hotel, but Charlie left a cat plushie and a pink paci in a gift box in his room. He never mentioned it but he loved them!
•When he’s a ‘big kid’ (still small), he can talk pretty well but gets hung up on his big words. He also finds it hard to walk due to his spider-like body, and begrudgingly holds someone’s hand to keep him stable (he secretly likes it)
•Can be touch averse sometimes after work, but other times he doesn’t mind it. Though he’s not good at making it clear (no fault to him, he’s just a baby)
•Eventually, Husker became his babysitter and that developed into being his caregiver (we stan Huskerdust in this household).
•Husk doesn’t like kids too much, but puts up with the littles and always makes them feel welcome. Angel really needs that, when he’s small, he doesn’t feel very useful for the hotel (he doesn’t when he’s big either)
•Loves to play with Husk’s wings and ears!
•When he’s regressing because he’s sleepy, he becomes the sweetest little thing! He has a baby blanket specifically for when he’s tiny and needs sleep, and can be fussy without at.
•Very quiet, normally just tugs on someone’s sleeve until they turn around and notice him, before helping him get ready for bed.
•He loves nicknames too, his favourites are Sparkles, Bambino, or Lil guy.
•He isn’t as much of a caregiver as he is a babysitter.
•He doesn’t know that many people that regress, and honestly felt a little alone before the hotel. Seeing Niffty be small for the first time was like a weight being lifted off of his shoulders.
•Calls littles things like ‘Squirt, Spiderling, or Prince/Princess/Little royal.’
•Six arms act as six scoopers to cradle littles with! He’s shockingly good at it, being held by him is dream because of how fluffy he is!
•Has no problem playing along with littles, he’s an ‘actor’ after all! He actually enjoys it a bit, especially tea parties with Niffty!
•If someone else is taking care of a little, he’ll claim that he won’t help out, but somehow the little’s bed is made already before nap time, or their bottle will be filled up, wonder who did that~!
•Can calm a little down from crying, like he did with Niffty when she was drunk, a whole lot of shushing and cradling!
•Is pretty lenient with the littles but of course, doesn’t let them do anything unsafe.
•He gave Niffty a gun once though, it was unloaded.
•Throws dance parties with littles to get them to let out some energy before bedtime.
•Speaking of, he’s pretty good at that too! As stated, being held by him is like resting on a cloud, you’d already be sleepy by the time he’s carrying you up to bed!
•Gives his littles nicknames in Italian and totally lies about what they mean if he’s asked.
•He mainly takes care of Niffty, Charlie and Sir Pentious!
——
Well that’s all I’ve got in me for now folks! I’ll probably do a part two to cover Alastor, Husker, Niffty and Sir Pentious, along with some other favourites of mine when I have time! Sorry if these are a little rambly, I wrote this all in one sitting and just wanted to get my thoughts on this show out! Hope you enjoyed, bye!

Wanda & Loki | Character Arc Parallels
I've seen people's compare Wanda and Loki a lot lately, and... Actually yeah they're basically the same arc but changing the order a little.
Rough childhood / Origin Story
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay, I couldn't find a gif of lil' Wanda being... Scarred for life, but you get my point, both had a really sad beginning. Wanda had an arguably happy childhood despite growing up in a war zone, that is until whatever warlord threw a missile in a civil area.
Despite Loki having no memory of his sad origin, his is debatably worse, since it's only thanks to Odin that he did not perish due to abandonment. And in the Asgardian household he was loved, sure, but he grew up in the shadow of the real heir to the throne.
Gone Apeshit because of grief
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here I include Pietro, because it's because of their shared trauma both submit to the experiments that gave them their powers to fuck shit up, resulting in the death of a lot of people.
For Loki, it took him a lot more to become a hero, given he was a villain for his first two appearances (Thor 2011 and The Avengers 2012) he is absolutely almost destroying Jotunheim and killing about a 100 people under Thanos' command.
Wanda then goes back and forth between villain, hero, fugitive and full on villain, while Loki went from hero, to villain, to anti-hero to full on hero.
Bonus points because both use mind stone derived abilities (the scepter and Wanda's power) to create chaos by infuriating poor Hulk.
Hit rock bottom when exposed to a very powerful but mind controlling item
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've mentioned this before, it was confirmed the mind stone had brainwashed Loki by feeding himself resentments exponentially, kinda like the Darkhold corrupted Wanda. Like, yeah, they're mildly aware of their actions, but they get blind with rage and while that doesn't justify their actions, it means they're not bad down their core.
Lost the Relative they were closest to, which triggered them to become full-on heroes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Loki killed his birth father, who knows what happened to the mother, lost Frigga which I'm pretty sure he blames himself for it (which is why Mobius says "like you killed your mother" he was playing with that guilt), and then lost Odin, and he probably blames himself for it if he "hadn't cast that spell on him, he'd be alive". But back to Frigga a little bit, it's thanks to her sacrifice that Loki gets that push he needed to become an antihero
And damn, Wanda lost... everyone, her parents to a warlord using Stark tech (and taught it had been the latter), Pietro to Ultron which I'm still guilty about, Vision at least 3 times so far and twice at her own hands, the twins sort of twice two... but despite loosing her family she always knows when she makes a mistake and is willing to make sacrifices.
Use powers to escape reality
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the first main difference between their arcs stands, thanks to the nature of their own powers Loki's maladaptive daydream is harmless being purely illusory, while Wanda has reality warping powers that she was just realizing she had (prior to this her powers were limited to prestidigitation, energy beams and minor mind manipulation).

Hiii i love your work, for blurb night I was wondering if you could write something about babysitting someone’s kids with one of the drivers and someone in public mistakes you for parents bc they are unaware of you the driver is and you guys look like a cute family. It’s okay if not. Thank you in advance !!!!
Note: I have the biggest baby fever right now and I saw many cute videos that had Lando with kids, and I can't stop thinking about them, but since I have written a lot for him today, I'm doing Charles. For the plot of this, I gave him a niece, so let's pretend Charlotte and Lorenzo had a kid!
"Don't you look cute in that hat, Céline?", you cooed as you made sure it covered her head properly and that is wasn't too tight around her neck.
Charlotte and Lorenzo once joked about how the ideal Christmas present for them would be someone willing to look after their daughter for a few days as they took the time to have a little trip to enjoy just the two of them. You and Charles, however, weren't joking when you said you'd happily take Céline for the week while they recharged their batteries. Today, since it was sunny, you and Charles decided it would be nice to go to the park.
"Let's go, then!", Charles cheered, pulling the stroller closer to you so you could strap her in safely before you left your place.
"We are going to see the duckies - do you like duckies, Céline? And we can just sit in there and make some flowers bracelets, too, auntie Y/N will teach us", Charles spoke as you walked to the park, a few people noticing him but thankfully not making a big scene out of it.
"I keep thinking about the ice cream parlour, hopefully they gave my favourite", you admitted, kissing his cheek, "but the duckies are a great selling point, too", you winked.
You had been sitting near the benches for a little while, flower chain bracelets already done as Céline started getting hungry, "how about I go get your ice cream and you start on her yogurt?", Charles suggested, kissing the top of your head and tickling the little girl's tummy before heading to the shop.
"That was a big one, baby girl!", you cooed as Céline ate all of the yogurt on the spoon, cleaning the remnants on her lips with the spoon before going back in on the pot when you were interrupted, "I'm sorry, dear", a female voice called.
Turning around, you saw a beautiful older woman, you guessed around her seventies, "this fell from your husband's pocket, and I bet your daughter would miss it soon", she said as she handed you the small stuffed toy Céline loved so much.
"Thank you so much, neither of us noticed and she would have made a fuss if we didn't have it back home", you smiled, "but we're not-", you were interrupted again by Céline's squeal when she saw Charles come back.
"Here's your ice cream, amour", Charles said as the lady smiled, "I was just bringing your daughter's toy back - it slipped from your pocket", she explained, sensing Charles' curiosity about her presence.
"Merci - can you say Merci, Céline?", he tried as the little girl babbled something that resembled the word.
"Enjoy them when they're this young, times truly flies by! You have such a beautiful family", she complimented before waving the three of you goodbye, joining who you presumed was her husband as they walked out of the park hand in hand.
"I tried correcting her but then you showed up", you said, "we are family, though", Charles reasoned, taking a spoonful of your ice-cream, "but I know what you mean. She's not wrong though, we look like a cute little family", he smiled.
"One day", you smiled, "one day, amour, we're going to have a little one of our own to squish a fill with love, won't we Céline? Do you want little cousins to play with?", he said as he took her into his lap, boucing her on his knee as she giggled loudly.
(Thank you for submitting an ask ✨️)

more with singleteenmom!reader x Steve harrington!! Please! We all need it!!
I’ll be happy to! Here’s another little blurb because my heart is warm for dad Steve 🥺 also I applies I might’ve gotten a little carried away.
You better believe Steve is so involved with baby girl from the moment he meets her.
Early in your relationship, every time he comes over, he’ll just pick her up and kiss her all over her face until she’s shrieking and giggling with joy.
“How’s my favorite girl?” he’d ask.
You joke that Steve is only dating you for the baby cuddles although you don’t mind one bit because you can’t help but fall in love with him just a bit more every time you see him with her.
Steve wants to help with everything. Feeding her, baths, bed time, although his first time changing a diaper, he was so confused and worried.
She’s at the stage where she’s a lot more active and fussy when it comes to having her diaper changed because she just wants to be on the go. The pure worry on his face when she’s throwing a fit crying is heartwarming, but a bit hilarious.
“What’s wrong? I’m not hurting her am I?!”
You obviously reassure him that it’s not him, she just hates staying still for a diaper change at the moment.
“Hey, it’s okay sweetheart. I know this isn’t fun, but I’ve got you, yeah? I’ll get this done and over with soon alright? Wanna hear a funny story? So yesterday Dustin thought it would be funny—“
You just might be a bit amazed as you watch your daughter’s howls slowly turn into sniffles as she becomes enraptured about Steve’s story about Dustin’s latest prank on his friends. You’d never seen her so calm for a diaper change.
It’s a new task and he’s a bit clumsy at first, but soon he gets the hang of it. When the diaper is on and her onesie back on, he picks her up, wiping her face of her tears.
“Now that wasn’t so bad, was it?”
She immediately melts into his shoulder, her head falling into the crook of her neck, her eyes drooping.
“Ah that looks like the problem. It’s time for someone’s nap isn’t it?”
Steve is always so cute asking if he can do something. He looks at you, asking if it’s okay if he rocks her to sleep and really, how can you say no? You settle him with her pacifier and the little stuffed bunny she likes to have and leave him to it.
He sits down in the rocking chair, placing the pacifier in her mouth and she instantly starts sucking on it.
“Do you want your bunny too?”
Her little hands grasp it, holding it to her chest between him and her.
“Would you like to hear a story?”
Her head now resting on his chest, she sleepily gazes up at him, fighting sleep as hard as she can.
“Okay. Well, once upon a time there was a little princess. She was tiny, but she was mighty. That’s because her mommy, the Queen had raised her to be. Unfortunately, the evil King had no interest in his daughter the Princess which I personally think is a shame because the Princess happens to be the most amazing little person. So is her mommy. Then, along came a peasant boy. He wasn’t Royal. But he instantly fell in love with the Queen. He loved the way her smile lit up her face every time she smiled. How sweet and kind she was to others. How even though the peasant thought he had no chance with her, she gave him a chance. He was the happiest guy ever. You wanna know why? Because she is the best thing ever to happen to him. You are too, my little princess.”
Steve glanced down and noticed she was fast asleep on his chest, but he couldn’t help but sit there a little longer to rock her before taking her to her crib.
Little did he know that you’d been outside the door listening to it all with a smile on your face and love in your heart.
Bath time is always interesting with babies. But if Steve gave her a bath? He made it a whole production.
“Now what is Mister Ducky doing huh?”
She’d babble back at him, still not entirely fluent in actual English, more so baby chatter.
“Did he really? He had no business doing that to Mister Cow.”
You laughed as you handed him the baby shampoo, eyeing the bath toys your daughter was playing with.
He would gently wash her hair, making sure to keep any suds out of her eyes as she happily played. Usually you could tell when she was over bath time because she’d start to fuss, tears coming soon.
As soon as the last suds were rinsed out of her hair, Steve would pick her up and wrap her in her towel.
“Hey, none of that okay? See, it’s over and we can get you into your pajamas all nice and warm okay squirt?”
Steve loves buying her things. Frankly, you can’t get him to stop. He spoils you and your baby girl way more than he should, but he happily does it.
One day, it might be a stuffed animal, one that she loves to play with.
Another time, it may be a book. He knows how much you like to read to her. Your little girl loves being read to, so books are always part of the gifts. Sometimes, he evens asks to read them to her. When he isn’t, he’ll sit in with you while you read to her. Besides, if Steve is around, your little girl wants him near.
Speaking of, she grows so attached to Steve that every time he comes over, she’s going to him. First, she crawls her little tushy off—the proper way, unfortunately not backwards much to Steve’s disappointment (just kidding)—and raise her hands to be held.
“Teve! Teve!”
As she grows, she’s always pulling herself up by his pant legs. Her vocabulary has been growing with her motor skills and it transforms to, “Teve, up!” when she wants to be held.
It seems like in a blink of an eye that she’s toddling to him, her steps still a bit awkward, but she’s on the run towards him when he comes over, a big smile and arms raised to him.
Steve was there for her first steps because of course he was. He’s always with you or you’re both always with him. Whether it comes to him coming over, the three of you going out or even hanging out with his other friends and children, you spend a lot of time together.
You just happened to be at a party/get together that Nancy Wheeler was throwing at her parents’ house. Not like a high school party, but just one with good food, good friends and plenty of fun. Everyone is there from her and her boyfriend Jonathan, Robin, all six kids and of course, you, Steve and your little munchkin.
Of course, they’d all met you and your daughter before but Steve loves to show her off as she’s his own which honestly, she might as well be. He’s as involved and proud of her like she is. You wish she was his, but you know she is his daughter in every way that counts.
He’s toting her around on his hip, occasionally letting her roam free with the kids to entertain her as she’s definitely into her exploratory “let’s get into anything we can get our hands on” phase.
“Steve! I think she’s trying to walk!” Dustin exclaims.
He turns around, along with you as you watch your little girl pull herself up on the coffee table that’s in front of the couch in the basement of the Wheeler house.
You’re both ecstatic as you watch her walk, still holding onto the table, as she takes steps.
Steve crouches not too far from her, holding his arms out.
“Can you come here sweet girl? Can you come see Steve?”
She looks at him hesitantly, as if afraid to give up the hold and support the coffee table gives her.
“You can do it, you don’t need that ‘ol coffee table. Come see Steve. I’ll give you cuddles.”
She giggles, letting go of it, taking one tentative step, then another.
“That’s it! You got it! Just a few more steps!” He’s beaming so much now. Even if she were to stumble and fall on her butt now, he would be so proud of the baby steps she’s taken.
But she keeps going and with one, two, three more steps, she stumbles into his arms where he scoops her up with joy.
“You did it! My baby girl did it!”
He lifts her into the air and she squeals, everyone else who’d witnessed it too, cheering and awwing at the sight.
He kisses her cheek and she replies by putting her mouth on his nose making him laugh even harder—with joy, excitement and pure love for her, you and all of his friends.
“Thank you for the kiss. Can you give mommy one too?”
He bends her to you where she leaves a sloppy open mouth kiss partially on your cheek.
“Now, how about some ice cream huh?”
“Steve, you’re cleaning her up if you get her as messy as last time!” you holler after him.
Which of course, he doesn’t mind. The most mundane things are the best time as long as he’s with you and his munchkin.
