Villains are those who have been abandoned by superhero society. TW: long post
It's something I've been wondering about for a while and how true it is. If that's the case, let's talk about it.
Tumblr media
From the picture above we get the idea of LOV using violence against violence. This is a good starting point for questioning MHA's superhero society: "The use of violence Solving the problem of violence” is it a good solution in this society or not? Of course, this is not a very elegant point when we come to Shigaraki's true, deeper reasons, what his true desires are.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the red circle layer is The entire cause of Shigaraki Tomura's character is his entire cause. "Destruction" has no other reason beyond that. Just because of what happened to him, "Shimura Tenko"
Tumblr media
The above scene is how Tenko felt. He wanted someone to lend a helping hand to him. And in the end, the person who came to help him was nothing short of an AFO, which is not all I have to say. Because there was another episode that happened and I felt like this was the little boy that Midoriya Izuku wanted to save?
Tumblr media
Wait a minute…I understand that it is about your father. Emotions take you…but Tenko's (Tomura) mother tries to hug him to comfort him. “My dear, everything will be fine.” But she died because of your power. Isn't that a matter of tragedy? Shigaraki ?? Are you relieved that you destroyed everyone in your family except your father??? What is this?? Okay, I'll try to calm down a little more. yes ! The story of Shimura Tenko or Shigaraki is really sad. And it's true. But is there anything else that makes me feel like this? This guy can't turn back.
Tumblr media
Okay….damn it! Is this a character worth reforming?? So ?? Blame nothing but others. I personally can float away, I'm not wrong. Everything is just me, me, me! Don't you believe it? Okay, let's continue.
Tumblr media
Oh! Here we go again with me, me, I'm not wrong! Society is too difficult to live in! In this ENG dub, it made me almost vomit about throwing shit at other people but never myself. Because that's what Toga, Himiko, and everyone else mostly do.
Tumblr media
I really hate this picture. Don't think too much about the black box.
And LOV's most famous words are!!
Tumblr media
And !
Tumblr media
There's nothing but me, me, you, they're the ones at fault, not me, no. (And I don't deny that Happening right now, but hey! You will talk to the Super Cop (Hero) for betraying the Villain. Even though he was sent to become a member of an underground organization? No need to say that they are different! In MHA, the hero is actually a super policeman, just applying stupid rules from cartoon heroes that aren't true in real life!)
And don't forget about you guys!
Tumblr media
oh ! These are truly the words of a "good person".
FAN : But but but ! The people of MHA deserve to die! Ps. And I don't mean the children who deserve to die.
Tumblr media
okay ! Tell me, what do you see in these 2 pictures??? If you don't see it, open your eyes and look wide!! okay ! That's all I'm going to complain about. Because some villains are… they can't reform!

Steal you 💔 Pt.2
Tumblr media
Here's pt 2 I hope you like it and tell me what you thinks I am a new writer so I'm sorry for any screw ups while I write
Warning ⚠: bad writing, girl verbal fight, reader gets suspended,and relationship problems, near death and super long
Kelly's pov
It's been three months since our fight and that's also three months she been staying with Sylvie and I really miss her if I hadn't said those things to her I probably wouldn't be sleeping alone every night. And I've tried apologizing she ignores me I lock her in my office to get one on one she let me kiss her but still won't talk to me I try asking everyone for advice but they give me the stank eye for what I did well everyone except Stella she's the only person who would talk to me. But she's the reason I'm in this mess in the first place so taking advice from her probably isn't a good thing. Hey Kels what's on your mind Stella asked with a worried expression. Nothing much Stella I'm just trying to get Y/n to forgive me but I wouldn't have to be doing this if you would of just stayed away from me I would probably still have my girl
^Wow are you really blaming me for caring about you. I was just checking up on you it was a tough call and if Y/n can't see it that way then she's not a good girlfriend.
What Stella was saying was making sense all she was doing was making sure I was okay Y/n is overreacting. So I'm done trying to apologize.
× Y/N POV
It's been awhile since our fight and Kelly has been trying to apologizing Obviously I haven't accepted his apologies because what he said really hurt I dont think I can forgive him yet.
I came into work with Sylvie expecting Kelly to there with some flowers or something but he wasn't he was sitting at the squad table laughing at something cap said turned and looked at me then back at the squad members which confused me first he was apologizing now he's not. It's kind of concerning Maybe he's done apologizing And ready to move on then I see Stella go over and then starts talking to Kelly and them. I walked away knowing what's happening Stella probably told him something that's why he stopped apologizing.
Sylvie pov
I see Y/n walking away from the scene in front of us I walked over to the squad table and looked between Kelly and Stella. Kelly you're gonna lose a really great, kind, amazing, sweet, loving, and caring girlfriend is you don't start seeing what Stella is doing to your relationship. And I know deep down you don't want that and for you to sit here and try to ruin a good relationship is fucked up and you know what Stella I really thought you were a good person never would hurt anyone especially here we are family and just to betray someone like that just to get their boyfriend is really really fucked up.
No what is fucked is that Y/n took in the wrong way Stella was just making sure I was okay it was a tough call you know you were there .
Yea I was it was a tough call for everyone even Y/n you know the body they found after the fire was put out was a person Y/n couldn't save and she was right there Matt had to pull her out fire because the building was gonna explode. That's why that day she went straight to put her things up she was crying her eyes out and you were here with Stella being a bad boyfriend not the other way around. I walked away not being able to keep my cool.
Y/n pov
Hey are you okay? I heard Sylvie ask
Not really what if my relationship is over?! It can't be over Kelly is the first guy to ever make me feel loved and that I'm not such a burden to everyone he actually cares about me I dont want that to be over I started crying Sylvie hugged and and said hey it's not over and if does leave you for her then he's not worth the tears. You're the best thing that has ever happened to him rocky just remember that you have whole crew behind you.
Yea thanks Sylvie I smiled at her she smiled back then the alarms went off duty calls. We make it to a house fire then a women is heard scerming for her son the house fully engulfed in flames chief Boden doesn't want anyone going in because it was already unstable but the lady is begging us to save her son that his name was oliver I knew I was gonna get in trouble for this but I ran into the house calling for Oliver no reply then I saw him laying there passed I froze for a second because I saw the man I didn't save on the call three months ago but then I heard my name being called it was Matt and Kelly i snapped out my daze and grabbed the kid made it to Matt and Kelly and ran out the building we watched as it collapsed his mother come running to us Matt stopped her as Sylvie and Violet were working on him he didn't have a pulse. I was silently praying he would make it. Sylvie looked at me and shook her head letting me know he didn't make Matt let the mom go she was screaming in agnoy Sylvie was comforting her I walked pass everyone. Everyone was tapping me on the shoulder everyone except Kelly and Stella. I went behind our truck then started crying we all got in our assigned trucks and went back to 51 as soon as we get there I went somewhere private to calm myself down then Sylvie found me and told chief Boden was looking for me.
Kelly pov
Y/n just loss another victim and she just walked past everyone and they all patted her shoulder but I didn't neither did Stella which is understandable. Then as soon as we got to the firehouse she went off to her little private room to calm herself down. I was gonna go talk to her but Stella pulled me into my office and started to talk to me
Do you really think she's gonna let you comfort her you yall are still fighting and she probably won't even acknowledge you Stella said. I don't care Stella she just lost another victim and this time it's a kid and right now I don't care if she doesn't want me there she still my girlfriend and I love her. Wow you still love after three months of not talking to you she probably doesn't even love you anymore so why don't you move on Kells to someone who won't do that to you like me I will never shut you out. Then it hit Stella was really trying to break us up why was I so blinded by that I should of noticed it three months ago. You should leave Stella, all this time you've been getting really close to me and now I notice how you were trying to break us up I really hope I didn't mess this up. Whatever Kelly you're missing out on what could've been something amazing. But go back to your bitxh. DON'T CALL HER THAT!!!! I yelled at Stella the real bitxh here is you. Stella slapped me then walked away. I went to look for Y/n and try to get her forgiveness. I saw Sylvie and asked where she was cause she's not in her little room. Hey Sylvie where's Y/n I need to talk to her it's really important. She's is Boden's office he wanted to talk to her about something. Thanks Sylvie I went to chief Boden's office then I heard yelling from both chief and Y/n. Then Y/n comes out tears on her face and stops and looks at me. Hey are you okay what happened in there. I just got suspended for what I did at the last call my night can't get shitter than this unless you are here to break up with me she said. No I'm not here to do that I'm here to actually here to tell that I'm sorry for what I did and for not seeing it sooner I'm sorry for not listening to about Stella and what her intentions were. She looks st with shock then comes too. Kelly I'm glad you finally see what she was doing we can talk more about this later but right now I just need leave with tears still running down her face. She walked off and went to collect her things and said bye to everyone as soon as she left I went straight to talk to Boden.
Part 3 is next I hoped you like it but please leave a comment and tell me how I did and should I continue writing

Okay so I'm not though the game or Astarion's romance yet, but I am past the Cazador plotline and I've done some playing around with different options, and no matter what you pick or how it goes I have one beef with the way the romance is done overall:
Astarion just isn't into you enough.
(spoilers below)
So right from the beginning Astarion seduces you specifically to gain your favour. And that's fine! It's interesting to see how a relationship can develop from that! Except ... we don't ever see it develop. Given the right dialogue options, Astarion eventually tells you how your relationship started and that he eventually caught feelings for you, but we never see that process. We never see anything between the initial sex scene and the feelings confession. There's literally no acknowledgement that you're even together, or any confirmation that this is a continuous thing rather than a one-time thing. We get to see in his eyes when he lies to you about having to "hold back" -- and major kudos to the animators for pulling that off so well -- but we never get to see when the way he looks at you changes.
So when he says "Oh yeah I totally seduced you for my own gain and also it was really easy but it's all cool because I like you now!" it just feels ... cheap.
[And there isn't even an option to acknowledge how hurtful that information, and the way he presented it, is! If you want the romance to continue at all, the only options you can chose next are "I care about you" and then some way to assure him that you care. Which, yes, he does need that assurance because nobody has ever cared about him before, but right at this moment, I could use a bit of assurance too! Part of that comes down to the player character having a bit too much of blank slate syndrome throughout the game, but it's still really irritating.]
And then once he gives a bare minimum confession of vague feelings for you, he immediately starts calling you "my love". And then there's the dryad scene where you reinforce your "love". But ... we're not there yet. We've barely acknowledged feelings, much less figured out what they mean. Literally if you ask him he just says he doesn't know what you're doing or what you are to him, just that you're important and this is nice. And so again, it all just feels cheap. It feels like we're going through motions.
The scene where he takes you to his grave feels more genuine, at least, but again, it would feel more genuine if there'd been any real relationship development up to that point. Shit, just giving me the option to hug him literally at any point in Cazador's quest would've done wonders.
(Side note: hell yes to banging him on his own grave, omg. But then, of course, the one sex scene where he's not just going through the motions is the one that fades to black before anything really happens.)
But then on the flip side, if you let Astarion go through with the ritual, he goes back to being weirdly detached and going through the motions.
Now I realize, dear reader, that this is done on purpose, to show how the ritual affected him, so I'm going to preface this next bit by saying: I am really, really into fucked up relationships in fiction. I love a villainous love interest, and I love it when the woman is either trapped in his clutches, extremely into how fucked up he is, or that fun combination of "this is so fucked up so why is it so hot?!"
So, like, I get that the game is trying to show you that he's currently not really capable of love. But I personally would enjoy that so much more if that love were replaced with obsession rather than indifference. Once in the initial seduction scene and a couple of times in the post-ritual scene he offers you something that sounds really good and then ruins it by asking, "Isn't that what you want?" in a detached sort of way. He isn't offering because he wants to give it to you; he's offering to keep you compliant, even now. In the post-ritual scene, he offers to turn you into a vampire, he says that you'll be his forever in an extremely sexy voice, and then he ruins it by saying "Isn't that what you want?" He starts calling you things like "pet" but in a degrading way rather than in an "I'm going to keep you forever" way.
The entire scene where he makes you kneel, where he describes what he's going to do to you, where he tells you it'll hurt and you have the option of saying "Yes, please"... All of that would be so much hotter if he were actually into it at all. Instead it's just ... patronizing.

Sorry to fan the flames of your baby fever (except no I'm not), but pls consider Reiner giving the baby a bath in one of those little tub sets, being ever so careful not to get soap in their eyes and not even caring when he gets splashed.
😤HOW. 👏🏽 DARE. 👏🏽YOU. 👏🏽 😤
Nah, but this is cute as heck!! And what a lovely image to think of while taking a break from the "First day of the new year back at work + it's a Monday" grind.
Tumblr media
Gosh, I really just love the idea of Reiner being a stay at home dad too tho. He would enjoy it soooo much. Just getting to be a kept man and dote on his babies all the time! 😫🥺🧡
He's always soooo careful whenever handling any kiddo as wee babes. I mean, also any age cause he's just a cautious guy due to his size anyway, but the DELICACY with which he holds and interacts with lil babies is the most heartwarming, cavity inducing scene to watch!
And after washing them up in that tiny lil tub, and getting them in their diaper, he cradles them close as he opens up their dresser or closet and talks to them in such a kind voice, asking them what they want to wear for the day!
And while it's a very gentle voice, he tries not to talk in "baby talk" because this man read sooooo many books in preparation for his first kiddo. (He's determined to do everything he can to be the best dad!) And I'm talkin not just "So You're Gonna Be a Parent" books, but also psychology articles about raising kiddos, and even pedagogy for teaching infants and toddlers! (especially if he gets to be a stay at home dad but you bet your breeches he's making time to read these even with a full time job and being sure to still keep the care and romance alive in y'all's relationship throughout the pregnancy 💞)
He gravitates toward the Montessori teaching approach for when they're really young. Oh! And the whole point of the above tangent, is he read a number of places that by talking to babies and toddlers in a "non-baby speak" voice, helps them better develop their speech skills. Both understanding and talking.
He'd probably even go so far as to incorporate sign language into their life, to better be able to communicate before they have the ability to physically talk.
"Reiner, honey, isn't that a little excessive?"
"But how will they communicate with us until their muscles are strong enough to talk?"
"Oh no babe, I get teaching them sign language to communicate before they can speak. I just don't think we need to plan to take an Advanced ASL course before they get here."
"But it says we'll learn dialogue for conversations that happen around home and school and common phrases associated with talking about the weather and sports. This way I can explain what's happening on the TV when we watch soccer and football."
"Babe, I don't know if they'd be able to understand what's going on regardless of you signing it or not...cause, that's going to be a lot to expect them to learn before they're a year old."
"Oh...right."
"But hey, why don't we put a reminder to take the classes eventually. Knowing ASL will still be a great skill to have. We just don't have to try and learn advanced conversational ASL in the next 6 months. Okay?"
"Yeah. That does make sense. Guess I'm getting ahead of myself. Sorry."
"Hey, hey! No apologies needed Mr.! I love how excited you are and learning all these new things with you. But it'll be okay if we don't know everything or have everything perfect before they get here. I don't even think that's possible with all the time in the world."
"...You're right." You open your arms and wave him to scoot closer for hugs and cuddles. "I just want to make sure they have a good headstart on things. And...that I don't mess things up."
"Reiner, look at me." Two fingers press under his chin to tilt his head up when he doesn't look up. "We're going to make mistakes. No matter how prepared we are. All we can do is love them, and show them we love them. Everything else will work itself out."
"Yeah."
If only speaking words out loud or knowing how logical they were could alleviate anxiety and worry. You press a kiss to his forehead. Then a few more all over his face until he's grinning and retaliating with his own smooching barrage. By the end you're both laughing.
"Love you, Honey Grahams."
The sweet nickname earns you the rich sound of Reiner's renewed laughter. "I love you too."

About your Wingfeather kittens, did you notice that their coats match their characters' hair colors? Also if you've seen it, how do you feel about the Wingfeather saga tv series?
May God bless you and keep you!
Ah, haha, you're right they do! I hadn't really noticed that except with Kalmar, when I named them it was because their purrsonalities matched the characters. (well, except for Leeli being shy, but she was unexpectedly fiesty considering how innocent looking she is, and that is very Leeli)
I love the tv show! Well, most of it. I have a beef with the last few minutes of episode 6 specifically for leaving out a bunch of extremely important information from the book and also Janner and Peet's hug, but besides that I love it! I think that the changes they've made when translating it from a book make sense and I love all the actors and actresses they've recruited for it (which isn't exclusive to the big name ones, the kids are *flips table* SO CUTE and I think they're doing a PERFECT job with their characters).
*spoilers follow*
Also I say I have issues with episode 6, but it really is just those last few minutes I SCREAMED when Peet and Nugget showed up and were fighting the Fangs. Also when Peet's talons got revealed, I was really just screaming a lot the last two episodes. xD
Okay and now that I'm thinking about it again I do not understand why most of episode 5 was Like That. The first half felt largely unnecessary when the kids could literally just have been captured with Nia and Podo like in the book (and yes they wanted to have the kids see earlier that Zouzab was a traitor to really drive that home to them, but there were easier ways to have done that) and they could have used the extra time for episode 6 and explaining the whole flight from Anniera/why Podo hates Peet/letting Peet have the panic attack he did in the book why would you not have him react to Esben's name I'm-
*cough* Anyway, I don't know if they're on this blog or my main blog but somewhere I have a bunch of posts about how I LOVE what they're doing visually to really SHOW the story and that they're building parallels for things later. Like, for example, making the Sea Dragons able to loom RIGHT over the cliff the kids are on instead of being far below when they react to Leeli's song and how that visually is going to parallel the scene in book 2 where Leeli calms Yurgen down with his song and then touches him. Like I deeply hope there are Wingfeather people capable of making gifs because when that scene from book 2 drops I'm gonna lose my mind.
I love Peet in the show. ;-; He's my favorite character and they are doing him SO fantastically well and also affirming a bunch of my headcanons so that's exciting. :D "Escape to Peet's Castle" is just *chef's kiss* perfection. I have every scene of the kids and Peet screenshotted and saved on my computer almost second by second.
And on that note I am SO excited to finally have all these characters visualized and to be able to take screenshots of them and this show is just so PRETTY my gosh. I love the character designs and the places and the lovely backgrounds.
All this being said I am waiting in fear and trepidation for season 2. Them leaving out some very important things at the end of season 1 has made me very anxious to see if they'll be able to keep doing this well. I'm worried that they're trying to go too fast and that some of the quality is gonna get sacrificed. But a lot of that is because I've been burned before by tv shows that started out AMAZING and rapidly deteriorated. But I pray for everyone involved with the show every night to have wisdom/guidance so I'm trying to trust God with it.
So, overall, I really love the show and I hope they can keep doing it well, I just have a few concerns. I'll stop now because this got long and kind of rambly. Thanks for asking!

A Family Ties "A, My Name is Alex" Deep (Deep) Dive pt 1
This has sort of been a long time coming. After two years of wanting to but not quite having the motivation, several of you showed interest in me putting this post together. And so guess what? We're gonna take a real close look at the greatest Family Ties episode of the series and what is arguably MJF's finest moment as Alex P. Keaton (and some of his best acting, period, in my opinion).
This is going under a cut on account of the episode is a two-parter, and there's just so much to cover. But I will be adding gifs to break it up and make it easier to read! Enjoyyyy. *vaguely maniacal laughter*
Alright, so there is a reason why you may see me mention this episode more than others. And there's a reason why it's earned itself a spot on TV Guide's list of "Top 100 Episodes of All Time." It is so wonderfully done and such a pivotal point in the series. It is THE Alex episode, where everything we've learned about this character for the previous four and a half seasons culminates in this big, serious, sad plot that works to carefully unravel exactly who Alex is and why he's that way. Here we go...
We open with the Keatons returning home from a funeral. Alex's very good friend Greg has died--a result of a car accident. Prior to this, we've actually never even seen or heard of Greg before, but the decision to kill an unknown character was the best one for this situation. What were they going to do, get rid of a friend we actually know? Skippy??? Or Doug, Alex's goofy, loveable buddy from season 3?? Alex doesn't exactly have many friends, and those that we do know are too wonderful. They had no choice but to off a rando. Nevertheless, we get a strong sense of the deep bond Alex had with Greg and find out they had been friends since they were seven.
The Keatons are all overwhelmed by the tragic loss. Except for, ya know, Alex. He's unsettlingly upbeat, raving about what a great funeral it was, making jokes, bopping around the kitchen, etc. But this behavior isn't all that strange for him. This is season 5. We know that Alex struggles immensely with processing his emotions. He frequently relies on his family to help him identify his emotional states and work through whatever is causing them. So, Alex's mom knows that he's hurting but that he may not know it. She urges him to go and lie down. Alex rejects the offer and starts talking about what a lucky guy he is. See, he was supposed to be in that car with Greg too. Greg had asked him to come help run an errand, but Alex didn't want to and said no. He realizes that he was being selfish in not helping but claims that it's to thank for him being alive. He's almost giddy as he's explaining this to his parents.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Elyse again tells him to go and get some rest, to which Alex replies, "No, no, no, Mommy...Mommy, I don't want to lie down now, okay? I wanna stay up; I wanna keep moving." This line stands out when you factor in a certain tendency Alex has regarding how he addresses his mother. In a normal situation, he almost always refers to her as "mom." BUT (and this is one of those details about the layers they put into Alex that I particularly like), in moments of high stress--when he's really upset, scared, or anxious--he often calls her "mommy" instead. Keep this in mind for later when we move into part 2 of the episode.
Anyway, Alex's family decides to leave him be, and once he's finally alone, he has a very vivid hallucination of Greg being in the kitchen with him. His family walks back into the room to find Alex hugging the air, and they're obviously concerned. Steven has a brief heart-to-heart with Alex, telling him to let himself grieve and not to rush himself. It's a process. Spoiler alert: Alex will not be taking this advice. The next scene, which I'll just mention super quickly, involves Alex contemplating becoming a monk as a solution to dealing with his increasing anxiety surrounding death and the meaning of life. He quickly changes his mind when he learns that monastic life would require him to give up girls.
Cut to later in the day, and Alex is alone in the kitchen. He again starts hallucinating that Greg has come to visit him. And here, I'll include the two reactions we've gotten so far to each of Greg's "visits."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Notice the shift from Alex just wrapping his arms around Greg in the first gif to literally gripping his shirt in his fists in the second. And whereas the first visit made Alex happy, he's distressed during the second, especially as they get to talking. Greg sees Alex is studying for his economics final and says he'll leave him to study in peace. Alex, who typically prioritizes his grades, hurriedly swipes all the books onto the floor and gives the following speech, which I will type out in it's actual form because it's a jumbled, stammered mess and a good indication of Alex's slow-building unraveling:
"What, are you kidding me? You're more important to me than this. I don't...I don't know why I'm bothering. This, this, that's, this is meaningless. That...that's meaningless. Look, uh, I mean, I mean, I mean, what's the use of busting my tail to try and build a future for myself?"
This is an Alex turned nearly incoherant with grief.
Greg tells Alex that he has to keep living. Alex ignores this and starts apologizing over and over, saying that he should have gone with Greg that day. Greg points out that if he did, he would be dead too. "I don't care. I don't care. I was lazy; I didn't wanna go--" Alex replies, returning to the same thing he's been fixated on since Greg's death: his own selfishness. Alex has now reached the point of feeling such guilt for staying home that he wishes he had died too. Mallory walks in on Alex screaming at nobody, and he tells her he was supposed to be in the car with Greg. Mallory reminds him that he wasn't, and Alex has this emotional exchange with her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mallory gives a typical sibling response and tells him that he's still alive so that he can continue to aggravate her. This answer doesn't help Alex or change his belief that he should have been in the car. Now, this thought of "I was supposed to be there too" is one that would likely hit anyone in this scenario, but it's especially strong for someone like Alex, who canonicallly has issues with fixating/ruminating on things. He gets something in his head and literally can't shift his focus to anything else. Remember the episode where he grows a mustache and almost every single thing he says for days has something to do with it? Or when he's afraid his head is too big and spends the day like, "Is my head too big? Hey, mom, is my head too big?? Do you guys think I have a big head? I see you're all having a serious discussion...that's nice. What is your opinion on my head, though?" It is. A problem.
Steven and Elyse walk into the kitchen, and it's then that Alex reaches the point of complete meltdown.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's a very powerful scene and by far the most emotional we have EVER seen Alex. And! It leads the Keatons to the realization that, quite frankly, anyone watching this show has already known for several seasons now: Alex. Needs. Therapy.
The next scene brings us right into Alex's first session, and the setup, if you've seen the episode or my gifs in the past, is very interesting. It takes place on a stage, with a mostly dark background, save for the various "memories" of Alex's that pop up. This is inspired by the 1938 play, "Our Town," which follows the characters' lives through flashbacks and monologues and was done similarly on a mostly empty stage using few props. It's a fitting way to handle the rest of the episode and really get inside Alex's head. We also never see the therapist--only hear his voice as he talks to Alex. From here on out, Alex is under a microscope, forced to confront many things about himself and his life that he's tried so hard to avoid.
Alex introduces himself and tells the unnamed therapist how old he is, that he's a junior in college double majoring in economics and business. He mentions that "anything to do with money" has been a passion of his since he was a kid. This interest, we know, is due largely to Alex finding interpersonal relationships difficult and seeking the comfort and reliability that facts and figures offer him. Alex tells his therapist that his childhood was normal. He brings up when he was in nursery school and how he had the ability to identify coins by their sounds, even if multiple were dropped at once. He tells his therapist that his teachers used to blindfold him and drop coins into a piggy bank to test him--a memory he recounts as if it's like. A normal thing for people to do to a 3/4-year-old. But it serves the purpose of laying the groundwork for what will be a recurring theme of Alex being treated like some sort of interesting anomaly by his teachers throughout his school career. But we'll get more to that. Anyway, off-screen, you hear the therapist drop several coins to the floor, and Alex swiftly identifies each one. "Two dimes, a quarter, and three pennies." He's quite pleased when his therapist is impressed with this talent.
Moving on, the therapist brings up the reason for Alex being there. That his mother had said he wasn't sleeping or eating and that he's being "troubled by visions." Hallucinations aside, this is a typical reaction to stress/sadness that we see at other points in the series. There's a whole episode where the plot is Alex being so stressed over life that he literally doesn't sleep for days and throws the house into turmoil with his exhaustion. And after he and Ellen break up, he also stops eating and sleeping. So this is a definite pattern. @ the Keatons: your son should have been in therapy loooong before this lol.
Getting back on track: cue our first "flashback" from Alex's childhood. These are done very interestingly as well, since they don't use a younger actor to play Alex. It's just MJF playing each iteration of his younger self, and he does it SO. WELL. Like, just through a slight change in his speaking pattern and body language! It's fascinating to watch. In this flashback, he's 7-years-old and with his mother at the breakfast table. I won't rehash the whole thing, but it boils down to a conversation where Elyse expresses her concern that Alex is so wrapped up in news/politics/business instead of living the life of a typical child, and Alex pointing out that he just can't relate to a room full of kids whose primary concern is learning to tell time. I especially like the way it transitions from the memory--where Elyse is trying to get Alex to stay and eat breakfast before school (he says he can't because he's so busy) back to him speaking to his therapist. It also serves as a good reminder of where Alex is at mentally, that he thinks he somehow could have prevented the accident.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The flashback is fitting because Elyse worrying about Alex is, in fact, a big part of the show. You may have seen me mention in FT posts how much I absolutely love the relationship between Elyse and Alex. She is such a loving, supportive mother to all of her children, but her parenting style is notably different when it comes to Alex. And I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that Alex, independent and headstrong as he can be, really does need her support more than his siblings do. They're all pretty well-adjusted, have a grip on their emotions, etc. Alex isn't like that. He has no clue what he's feeling half the time. He bottles things up until he implodes. He has trouble with social relationships and seeing things from other people's perspectives--the source of endless problems for him. He's an extremely black and white thinker, so when it comes to sorting out those situations that are more nuanced, who does he run to? Mom. Who helps him to put things in perspective or explain why a situation went the way that it did? Mom. Who writes a script for him to carry in his pocket for when Mallory needs advice and she and Steven aren't around? Mom. Elyse is always worrying about Alex. (She also coddles him a little too much at times, which I think ended up actually hurting him a lot of the time, but that's beside the point)
The therapist wants to talk about Mallory next, so off we go into another scene from Alex's head. He and Mal have a little chat about life and death, and Mallory very optimistically shares her theories on the afterlife. Alex is in awe of how she seems to have it all figured out and mentions that it must be so easy to be her.
"Is it hard to be you, Alex?" we hear the therapist interject. Alex does not want to talk about that and wants to be left alone to talk to his sister. The therapist tells him to answer the question. "You know the answer," Alex says, "Of course, it's hard," then immediately resuming his conversation with Mal about what she thinks heaven is like, where she delivers one of my favorite lines of the episode:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Why is it so hard to be you?" the therapist prompts again.
And with that, we reach the halfway point in the episode and the end of this post, which you're probably thankful for because, wow this was a lot. Stay tuned for pt 2, where things really start getting good.

i saw your post about the superiority of the French dub, and I’m wondering what are some of the top episodes you’d recommend to watch in French, to someone who primarily watched the English dub, like instead of rewatching the entire series?
Hey, apart from the really important ones like Origins, Oblivio, Ephemeral, and so on, it really depends on what you are looking for in particular, so I’m just going to throw you some recommendations lol I've also asked my friends for some help with this.
Script differences: - Simon Says/Jackady Ladybug and Adrien to each other: "You have her smile" in French and "She's got your eyes" in English. 🔵🟢👁❓🤨 - Troublemaker/L'Insaisissable Adrien saying "I'm happy to have you as my friend" to Marinette in the French dub, while saying "I'm glad to have you as one of my fans" in the English dub… cheapens their relationship don’t you think? :| - Lady WiFi Marinette and Tikki were talking about different persons at the end. That being Alya in the French dub and Chat Noir in the English dub. - Chat Blanc When Chat Blanc was about to blow up whole of Paris, he calls for maribug, she replied with "Mon Adrien" (My Adrien) in French but "My Prince" in English… :| now what the fuc—
And plenty of others mentioned here, here, and here... and many many more...
The English dub censors how angry Gabriel actually is: - Felix/Félix The French dub does not joke around with this.
Ladybug in the French dub isn't as annoyed as how the English dub portrayed her to be: - Prime Queen/Audimatrix (she even calls him 'mon Chaton' here!! amongst other pet names!!! You will not be using pet names if you’re pissed at someone.) - Kuro Neko (her reactions to him asking her to take back his Miraculous is very different between the dubs. the English dub just sounds straight up done with him, which is definitely not the case in French.)
Chat Noir's musical style of speaking*: - Gabriel Agreste I recommend this episode because when I was sub encoding it, I realised that French dub adrichat does indeed sound different when he's one or the other, in the sense that he's more jovial as Chat Noir, thus the musical tone of voice. *honestly, every single episode ever, except I think later bit of S4?? where, you know...
Ladybug's singsong voice as she battles: - Copycat/L'Imposteur ("But me, I'm even way better~", "it's time for Akuma fishing~", "No more harm, little Akuma~", "Got you~") - Psycomedian/Psycomédien (I'm going to defeat him with my eyes closed~). There’s also a script change in this, English’s “Perfect for going out in style!” and French’s “But it’s useless, you’re naturally perfect!” what is this simp erasure?!
Chat Noir's French laughter: - Glaciator 2 His endearing laughter in French dub VS. his... I don't even know what to call it laughter in English dub, they did him so dirty in this 😤 I hate his laughter in the English dub, it's like he's mocking her.
Emotionally Heavy(?): - Glaciator How vulnerable marichat sounds in this, but especially the ladynoir scene at the end, and how soft they sound 🥺 - Gang of Secrets/Le Gang des Secrets Just how hard it hits when Marinette confesses to Alya who she really is. (When I first saw it of course, but the effect might be lesser now since we know what happened, but it was oomph when it first aired.) - Mr. Pigeon 72/M. Pigeon 72 You can just hear Adrien's adoration for Ladybug in this istg. And the Adrinette scene afterwards just flows and sounds so much better. And their giggling and chuckling omg it's so cute! - Strike Back/Réplique Okay I'm not gonna lie, the English dub in this is really not bad, but the French just takes the cake for me. I mean did you hear how hard Ladybug was breathing?! Her panic attack feels so real I just want to hug her and breathe with her, and of course Adrien the soft and supportive boyfriend is there to calm her down 🥺 also it’s ladrien, there’s no way i’m not including this.
Also I encourage you to watch the episodes cause you can understand why clownbug SIMPBUG and simpnoir exists in many of our minds. You can also really can hear the characters having a conversation, how flirty they can get, the undeniable affection they have for each other (all sides of lovesquare) platonic or romantic, how they are, by chatonnoir's tags, [so sweet, so warm, so full of love, so charming, so playful], and on and on it goes.

The Eclipse Episodes 10 & 11
WARNING: Spoilers! Like duh, but like there's a TWIST I did not see coming. Also, shit got real serious between these two episodes so...there's a lot less funny here.
Tumblr media
Okay, so I definitely watched episode 10. I remember fucking nothing. It seems that Chadok is definitely a shit bag. And we find out that Ayan's uncle was also a teacher at Suppalo, one that Akk really looked up to.
The scene where Akk puts together everything and realizes that this teacher he cared about is actually dead, fucking heartbreaking y'all. I am still enjoying the sweetness with Akk and Aye. But I'm also still confused about whatever this curse is supposed to be.
No jokes for episode 10 because nothing made an impression. (Okay I have one joke, but it's kind of in poor taste, but I'll give it to you. I work in a small office, me and one other person. I was watching on my tablet at work, but I didn't have headphones, so it was just playing. My coworker asked what Chadok's fucking problem was when she saw him yelling at Akk. My response was "he's mad because the kid isn't being Hitler Youth-ey enough". This is not entirely incorrect, but it is in poor taste.)
11
God Akk fully working out how he's been used to hold up this fucked up system, well now I'm crying. Their discussion in bed and Aye wanting kisses, so sweet but also the STRESS on Akk.
Thua did do a bad thing! Like it's 'ehhh' because like he's not lying, but Akk is supposed to be his friend. And if your friend's being shitty you should say something, but like maybe don't call them out in front of your whole school. I feel bad for Handsome boy. Also, public outing of Akk, definitely not cool, esp. since Thua is fully aware of the ramifications of it.
Props to movie boy for quick thinking, but like the whole outing situation sucks. I do also appreciate the lady teacher saying she'll stand up for the protesting students. I was worried about her kowtowing to the pressure since she's a new teacher.
Poor Akk crying, he needs the hug from Aye. 🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭. No not friends fighting.
Aye confronting Chadok. That's unexpected and expected at the same time.
Oh my GOD!!!! Why the fuck has Chadok been acting like this the whole time!!!! Oh I do not want to like Chadok, but these actors are giving their all here. I'm so fucking sad right now. So the headmistress is the villain, that solves why Chadok was scared of her. 😭😭😭😭😭 This is so fucking sad.
Everyone needs a hug, except that headmistress lady who needs a swift kick in the ass..
Okay maybe Thua also needs a boot to the ass. Some good intentions, but dude at the expense of your friends??? That's close to a Killmonger style villain, jeez, but he also didn't murder anyone so like it's hard to just shove him into a villain category.
Okay I gotta break some tension. Handsome boy asks what he should do to Thua. My thought: Thua should say "Why don't you kiss me about it." It's not gonna solve problems but if I've learned anything from KinnPorsche it's "if you can't beat the enemy, then maybe fuck them (you know, just in case that works)". But also Handsome boy is now Sad Handsome boy. 🥺
What is this suspicious weird kid always in Akk's business. Now I'm fucking worried he's going to fuck shit up. I do think that making Akk and Aye star in this short film is fun.
Okay that's kind of the end of the episode, so onto the finale, which will be a separate post.

have you watched season 4 of stranger things yet! i’d love your thoughts
Hi friend! I just finished it late last night because I was waiting for the whole thing to be released and my parents came to visit for the holiday.
Also I got COVID so here are my cold medication influenced thoughts in bullet point form:
- The Duffers really said "Hey you know El's awful tragic backstory? Okay what if it was worse?"
- Eddie Munson has the most precious soulful baby eyes I've ever seen on a dude.
- The fact that the Byers clearly see El as their sibling is just. My heart can't take it.
- The further we get in the more I like characters from when they were introduced. I had little interest in Jonathan even after season 2 - loved him in this season. Same with Erica, who grated on me last season and Murray who just bugs me when he starts in on people's love lives and telling them to sleep together. But I really liked what they all got to do this season.
- Some of the retconning is ehhhhhhh but they have another season to refine it.
- The Hawkins crew was the most dynamic and had the best material to work with.
- I'm not touching the shipping of Mike and Will, but I will say it's weird he couldn't even hug Will? When has he ever been afraid to hug Will??
-Mike and El's fight was heartbreaking because it boils down to two people with very low self esteem speaking different love languages. Mike has grown up with Karen and Ted as his example of a functioning relationship- even for a marriage of convenience, as Nancy has pointed out way back in Season 1- but no matter what their actual feelings are, you know what they both do? They provide. Ted has a good enough job that Karen doesn't have to work and Mike still gets all kinds of games, books, figurines, and electronics. Karen loves having the kids friends over and feeds everyone. There's obviously stuff happening beneath the surface but my point is: Mike was shown that you take care of people you love. He's a gangly bullied kid who is obviously terrified of what happens if El decides she doesn't need him - or worse, finds someone better. Except that El is an abused kid raised devoid of loving human contact that isn't meant to manipulate her in some way. Then out of the lab her initial education in human socialization is... television. Soap operas. Old movies. So yeah. She needs and wants verbal reinforcement. Which is frightening to Mike. It's something that real couples struggle with, and it also makes sense that these two teenagers wouldn't have the emotional maturity to be like "let's talk about love language."
- Max and Lucas were the MVPs this season. I always liked them but not really beyond a "high school sweethearts" sort of way but watching them in that last episode was a gut punch. Dustin talking to Eddie's uncle was also a moment of Acting. Definitely got wibbly along with Dustin.
-There was too much torture. But thats a personal ick of mine, I have a pretty low tolerance of it in media.
-I do not give the tiniest whiff of a fuck about Billy and find it notable that the two "happy" moments they could flash back to for Max was 1. When he died and 2. Him acknowledging her after she threatened him with bodily harm to get him to leave her alone. I'm glad they put some context for it in Max's monologue because I was NOT buying anyone being sad for that racist abusive jerk who only got flayed because he was on his way to fuck Max's friend's mom.
-I loved Suzee and the entire scene in Utah. Loved that she wasn't a one off for a musical gag in season 3. Loved feral child Cornelius even though I want him nowhere near my own house. Loved Argyle instantly and immediately falling in love with Eden. Loved Eden being like "Please attempt to murder her for me thanks." All of it was great 10/10.
- Hey uh.... anyone gonna check on Owens?
-Overall I liked it more than Season 3. But Season 2 will always be the gold standard for me.
Thanks for asking! I think this is mostly coherent. Hope you are well friend!

bff to lovers with seokmin where you purposely grind back into his crotch to make him hard while your spooning during movie night leading to making out on his lap while giving him a hand job
can i be 🫂 anon pls hehe
tags: friends to lovers, mutual masturbation (kind of), cock worship (kind of), dry humping (kind of), wonwoo being a nerd, there is no spooning (sorry), porn mention
wc: 2k
[part 1.5] [part 2]
it's almost funny.
you wish it were funny—in fact, you'd give anything to be laughing right now.
instead, you contend with the incredibly awkward silence, punctuated by the sound of you rifling around in the popcorn bowl and seokmin's nervous, quiet laughter.
"did wonwoo say this movie had a sex scene?" you ask, lightly nudging seokmin in the ribs in futile hopes of lightening the atmosphere. the light of the screen makes his eyes glow; you're able to admire him even as you both try to emotionally recover from seeing not only full frontal nudity but also what could generously be labeled as the most artsy, beautifully lit porn you have ever seen.
right next to your best friend.
and normally, it would be funny. if you were with chan or soonyoung or minghao or literally anyone else, you know you would be laughing. instead, you're shifting around on the couch, shorts feeling a little too short, panties a little too damp, and eyes wandering a little too close to the drawstrings of seokmin's grey sweatpants.
"n-no, he didn't," seokmin laughs. "leave it up to wonwoo to watch arthouse porn with an hour long introduction." and then he pouts so you laugh, because you always laugh when he pouts, except for some reason you're feeling embarrassingly horny and the hug of seokmin's shirt to his broad chest isn't really helping your situation. when did he get so buff again?
on the couch, you're pressed together, shoulders flush and legs tangled together. it was so comfortable until it wasn't, and now your body feels all too hot, and you wonder if he can feel it radiating off of you.
"well, seokmin, it won an academy award, okay?" you tease, rolling your eyes playfully. you bump your foot against his sock-clad one.
he returns your smile, his goofy and charming. "i dunno, i think he picked the wrong crowd to recommend movies to." and seokmin's right, the both of you watch zootopia every month and enjoy cinema in the form of cat videos and vine compilations.
you notice his cheeks are flushed, but you can't tell if it's the over-saturated light of the movie (which neither of you are paying attention to, even though the sex scene is long over) or if he's feeling as warm and sticky as you. perhaps it's the awkwardness that's permeated the space between the two of you, tender like a bruise.
"i-i'm going to refill the popcorn," you say.
maybe a cold drink of water will make you feel more normal.
"oh, i'll pause it for you." ever sweet seokmin, who thinks you're still watching the movie, begins reaching for the remote.
you attempt to disentangle yourself from his limbs, but the combination of both of you trying to move results in a disastrous tumble back onto the couch, where your hand ends up brushing up against seokmin's crotch.
not only his crotch, but directly over the hardness under the cotton, and you can positively feel all the blood rushing away from your brain, where you need it most.
and then, as if to seal your fate, seokmin wrenches his eyes shut and utters the most guttural fuck you have ever heard. you think your pussy actually starts aching with how turned on you are.
"s-sorry! oh my god," seokmin stammers, chest heaving with another shaky breath. but his hips cant up to meet your hand so desperately, like he's been wanting this to happen the whole time.
seokmin, your best friend in the whole wide world, seokmin who had taught you to ride a bike, who asked you to prom when your crush didn't, who texts you good night and knows all your darkest secrets (well, almost all of them).
seokmin, who you've had a crush on for god knows how long, is hot and hard under your hands and wrapped around your finger.
"i—i can help," you finally say. you lift your hand from his lap, the realization of what's happening finally sinking in. "only...only if you want."
and, unlike anything you've ever pictured in your wildest dreams, seokmin wraps his hand (much larger than yours) around your wrist and drags your palm down on his hardness once again.
"yes, yes p-please—" and when you press down just the slightest, his eyes flutter shut. his thighs are spread wide open and his mouth hangs open in a silent moan.
you've never wanted to ravish anyone this bad in your life before.
god, he must be big, you think, and just to test your hypothesis, your pretty fingers search for the shape of his length through the layers of fabric.
"fuck," seokmin whines. "just take it all off." and you, horny and scatter-brained, fumble with the waistband long enough for him to come to. "is this ok? are you ok with this? you're my best friend and—" he sucks in a deep breath as you yank his sweats down to his knees. "—and i don't wanna, wanna ruin our friendship."
"you idiot." the pet name, usually familiar, makes seokmin keen, hips searching for your hand again. "i've always liked you." then a tug of his boxers to reveal his cock, hard and heavy.
you almost moan aloud when your hand wraps around it, fuck, he is big, and you so badly want to to lick off the pearl of precum at the tip. he whimpers at the mere contact, overwhelmed by your sudden confession and the way your thumb is now stroking the underside of his cock.
"a-always?" seokmin groans loudly when your hand dips down to the base of his dick and you trace a prominent vein with a careful fingertip. "f-fuck, how—how're you so good at this?"
"seokmin, it's always been you." you swipe a thumb over his swollen head, then bring the digit to your lips. seokmin's eyes widen as your lips close around your finger—god, you have no idea how many times he's dreamed of this day—and then wrench shut once again when you pump his thick length once more. "not mingyu from bio—" you twist your wrist for some added friction, and seokmin moans so loud, so prettily. "not seungkwan the barista—" a thumb over the head to spread the rest of the precum over his heated skin. "just you."
seokmin takes yet another shaky breath and places a gentle hand over your wrist, shuddering when you tighten your grip on his cock slightly. "n-not even vernon?"
you shake your head and you don't even need to move your hand at all for seokmin to whine airily again, needy hips stuttering into your fist.
"fuck, f-fuck," he groans. "should've said something earlier. years ago."
you start stroking him again, petting that spot on the ridge of his cockhead that makes him throw his head back and moan.
"a-always," he breathes. "always thought you liked someone else." you trail your fingertips up his length just to see him shudder in pleasure again.
it fills you with a certain possessiveness, the knowledge that you know his heart, all his ins and outs, and now he's letting you map his body out, every inch, with your hands. you push up the hem of his sweatshirt to skim your fingers over his hard abs, watching his now neglected cock twitch at the mere contact.
"no time better than the present," you reply coyly. "now lemme make you feel good."
you kiss his belly button, and he cracks a teary-eyed, tender smile.
"can i touch you?" he asks, but it comes out like a beg. you're about to shush him and give him the best orgasm of his life when he puts his own hand, warm and desperate, on your inner thigh. "please?"
it's daring and reminds you of how much he wants you. you recall the time he zipped up your prom dress, fingers unsteady, or the times you've showered at his place and forgotten a towel, resulting in seokmin running in, white towel wrapped around one hand and the other poorly shielding his curious, wandering eyes. the reverent breath he always takes when you ask him to hold down your shirt so you can take off your hoodie.
"f-fuck," you stammer. "yeah, yeah, go ahead."
your hand, stroking his dick, falters when his fingers prod at your cunt through your shorts, and an unexplainable feeling floods through your body as you realize you've soaked all the way through your panties, leaving a wet spot on your shorts.
"this," seokmin pants, "this wet for me?" he roughly presses against your pussy lips, searching for your clit. "fuck, fuck—" he positively whines when your hips kick up, and you realize your panties are definitely swimming in your arousal.
you can tell seokmin's close by the way he's now fucking into your fist and blindly rubbing the wet spot over your shorts, not lucid enough to think to pull them down. but it doesn't even matter, you're spreading your legs like some whore and slowly grinding against his thick fingers. you know his eyes are burning holes into you, memorizing how your lips part in a moan, how light, gaspy you become when he hits your clit just right.
even over the fabric, it feels so good, so much better than your own hand when you were thinking about seokmin.
"r-remind me to eat you out," seokmin moans. "god, i wanna make you cum so many times. a-already look so good fucked out like this."
your eyes almost roll to the back of your head when he says that. when the fuck did he get such a filthy mouth, but you realize you're not much better given the way he's falling apart so easily in your hand.
"next week?"
"h-how's tomorrow? when soonyoung's gonna be at his girlfriend's place," you ask, and you look over at him to see his head thrown back, wet lips in an "o".
"yeah, fuck. please."
he's so close to his high; you've already discovered he loves when you jack him off at the base and when you twist your wrist just like that. you wonder how he'd feel in your guts, in your mouth. what he'll look like under you.
but you settle for the euphoria you're feeling now. with the eager presses of his palm to your cunt, you're not far off either.
"nngh, seokmin, i—i'm close." you gasp, arching your back against the couch cushions. you place your free hand over his to guide it over where your clit would be; another rut of his palm to your cunt, and you're there, hole fluttering around nothing as you feel all the warmth soak through your underwear.
you wouldn't normally cum so fast or so loudly, but seokmin fucking your hand and whining your name certainly wasn't part of the plan, and it just takes a couple of wanton moans on your part to push seokmin over the edge too, fat cock bucking into your hand like he's never been touched before.
"god, oh fuck," he hiccups as you help him ride out his orgasm, cum sputtering onto his pretty abs. another day, you tell yourself, instead cleaning him up with some napkins from the takeout you got earlier. "you're incredible. fuck. i think i love you."
you kiss his nose, capturing his cheeks between your fingers to bring his face, still flushed, to yours. "i think i love you too," you say, and he smiles. it's ecstatic, beautiful, as you kiss his nose again.
"what the fuck are we gonna tell wonwoo about the movie?" seokmin groans, finally noticing the credits rolling in the background. "and when's soonyoung coming back?"
"please shut up and let me kiss you."
and he gladly does, and you kiss and kiss and kiss because you're best friends and you're in love and nothing, nothing else has ever felt so, so right.

WATERCOLOR EYES
dealer!harry x jacobs!reader
part two of lexi’s play
(MASTERLIST) (EUPHORIA MASTERLIST)
-
The last of I Need A Hero plays as Y/N, Maddy and Kat walk in. They both begin to laugh at the antics on stage. Football players were dancing on the stage together also acting gay.
"Yes Ethan!" Y/N shouts as Maddy claps.
Everyone in the audience was enjoying the scene in front of them except Nate. He was getting stared at by fellow students who knew this specific scene was about him.
"Lexi, you're a fucking G!" Maddy yells as the boys on stage continue to thrust each other.
Multiple cheers and claps made Nate swiftly stand up and leave the auditorium as many people had their eyes on him. Quickly Cassie chases after him to see if he's okay.
Y/N and Rue both make eye contact after both seeing the two leave.
-
The Jacobs girl was texting Harry when she gets nudged by Maddy. She looks up to see Cassie walking down the isle. The blonde looked like she was going to go on a rampage.
People begin to stare at her confused especially Maddy and Y/N who had their mouths open. Cassie begins to smile as she passes by the two girls who stared at her.
Soon she makes her way on stage and cuts the three girls off by clapping slowly.
"Lexi you really outdid yourself." Cassie laughs. "I mean...where did she find these knock offs." She points to the characters that were supposed to be her, Maddy and Y/N one night at the carnival.
The audience lets out a bunch of oohs which corresponded.
"I had no idea that my sister had this in her. Good job, right? Isn't she brave? She's up here, unpacking all of her trauma. I had no idea how hard your life was Lexi. Can we give a round of applause for hard Lexi's life is?" Cassie begins to clap making a few people in the audience clap along with her.
Y/N rolls back her shoulders to stop herself from going up there and beating her ass. Cassie needed help, a reality check.
"Come on guys. I know they hack the heads off of the women in Afghanistan or wherever." The blonde says as Kat and Y/N look at each other confused. "God. It is nothing compared to living in my shadow."
"Yo, is this like a part of the play?" A guy from the audience asks which makes people start to laugh.
"I don't know. Lexi. Is this part of the play? Lexi?" Cassie questions looking for her younger sister. "This is your show. Come out! You're the big star of the day!" She smiles as she drags Lexi out from backstage.
"Please Cassie stop it."
"You're the star of the night. She's always wanted to be the star. This is your big moment. Shine!" Cassie announces stepping away from Lexi who looked on the verge of tears.
"Please, stop. Please, stop. Please, stop." Lexi begs.
"I should stop? Me? I'm not the one putting on a play to humiliate and embarrass you!" Cassie yells in Lexi's face.
"I didn't do that—"
"Oh really! Then what is this!"
It was silent for a moment until Suze's voice was heard.
"Hi, everyone. I'm Suze. I'm the girls mom in real life." Suze introduces herself as the spotlight goes on her. "Um, played by Ethan! Where is he? Ethan?" She calls for the boy making him quickly come out from backstage. The audience begins to cheer as they both hug.
"Thank you. Thank you guys. I appreciate it." Ethan nods as the audience continues to clap.
"He's gonna win an award." Suze laughs before turning around to grab Cassie. "Honey let's go home."
"I deserve this right?" Cassie asks Lexi as she pulls away from their mother.
"Oh my god, please mom, mom."
"I deserve this?"
"Stop!"
"Mom, stop!" Cassie yells at her mother who was trying to stop her from walking over to Lexi.
"Shh, you stop it." Suze snaps.
"Lexi I'm going to fucking kill you. I deserve this right? Because I've actually lived a life?" Cassie spats making Lexi frown.
"Mom?" Lexi calls for their mom.
"I'm the one who takes risks. I'm the one who falls in love. I'm the one that gets hurt, not you, Lexi!" Cassie screamed which makes Suze walk over to Lexi, guarding her. "You never even fucking lived! That's why you're able to stand up here and judge all of us! You're just a fucking bystander."
"Alright, alright." Suze warns grabbing Cassie who quickly slapped her hand away.
"Mom stop!"
Soon the audience begins to boo Cassie who lets out a chuckle.
"Oh, okay. Well if that makes me the villain, then so fucking be it." Cassie scoffs. "I can play the fucking villain." She nods her head.
Y/N shakes her head and continues to glare at the blonde making an embarrassment out of herself.
"Lexi, is this the part of the play where I steal Jake from Marta?" Cassie questions making Lexi shake her head.
"No Cassie that's not in the play." Lexi reveals.
"It is now!" Maddy shouts from the audience.
"Who said that?"
"Look I wanna say, I get it. I understand what you're going through. I lived it." The girl playing Hallie tells Cassie who rolls her eyes.
"Oh god. I do not wanna hear from you." The blonde holds her hand up not wanting to talk to her.
"Wait, Hallie steals Marta's boyfriend?" A girl from the audience speaks up trying to connect the dots that were in the play. Soon all the truth was going to come out.
"I don't know how many times I have to say this. They were not fucking together!" Cassie curses waving her hands.
"Yea, not only that but she was fucking him the entire time Marta was talking about getting back together with him!" Maddy yells next to Y/N who was prepared to run on stage at any moment.
"No...Why?"
"Because Hallie is a two faced cunt." Maddy says making the crowd exclaim.
"I'm not a cunt! You're the cunt!" Cassie shouts back to Maddy.
"She's not the fucking cunt! You're the cunt bitch!" Y/N yells as Cassie takes a step back seemingly getting scared. Everyone in the auditorium just stared open mouthed at the Jacobs girl.
"I am not a fucking cunt!" Cassie screeches as her mother grabs her.
"Language missy!" Suze shouts at Y/N.
Cassie's mom tries to drag her away but the blonde kept pulling away, wanting to embarrass herself even more.
"Mom this isn't fair!" Cassie whines to her mother as she begins to sob.
"It's not her fault. She's a writer. She's a writer." Suze tells her daughter who was having a breakdown on stage.
"This isn't fair mom! How can she do this—"
"$3.25 for a grapefruit? What is this, Venezuela?" Kat's character comes out from backstage making the audience burst out laughing. Swiftly Lexi hurries backstage making Cassie follow after her.
"Lexi, Lexi. I'm going to fucking kill you!" Cassie screeches.
"Okay enough!"
Suddenly music starts to play along with a girls moaning.
"Oh my god, yes! Oh, that's it! Oh my god I just love fucking everything!" Hallie moans while she rides a carousel.
"No! I'm going to fucking kill you!" Cassie screams as she runs to Hallie on the horse. "Get the fuck off the horse!"
"Ow!"
Cassie drags the girl off the horse and begins to tackle her.
"Fucking bitch!" Y/N curses as she swiftly stands up from her seat running down the isle. Maddy smirks quickly chasing after her making Kat and BB do the same thing.
"No. No. No. Y/N!"
“Y/N beat her ass!”
Y/N immediately throws her heels off before chasing Cassie who was running away from her. In a flash she grabs the blondes arm pulling her back giving her a hard smack to the face.
"You fucking bitch! Fuck you!" Y/N shouts at Cassie who somehow escaped her harsh grip.
-
"Y/N get her!" Maddy shouts chasing after the Jacobs girl who was trying to get Cassie.
"Y/N! No, no, no, no! Y/N!" Kat screams as Cassie gets shoved to the brick wall by Y/N. Cassie begins to slow down which makes Maddy speed up.
"Beat her fucking ass guys! She fucking deserves that shit!" BB yells halting to a stop to inhale her vape.

When Harry walks in his house he was immediately met by Fez waiting by the door looking scared.
"What happened?" Harry asks Fez who just stays silent and guides him to the living room.
One of Laurie's workers was dead...on their couch.
In a hurry Harry darts to the bathroom and falls to his knees throwing up in the toilet. His heart begins racing because he knew this was bad, really bad.
As Harry stands up Ashtray comes in the bathroom and dumps a bunch of ammo and guns in the bathtub.
"W-What are you going to do—"
"Harry get out! Now!" Ashtray shouts at Harry. When he dosen't move he points the shotgun at him. "Please leave."
"Okay I'm going Ash." Harry says as he holds his shaky hands up. Swiftly after he exits the bathroom Ashtray closes the door making Harry begin to cry. "Ash! Come on let's talk about this!"
Fez hurriedly comes up behind Harry and starts to bang on the door begging Ashtray to come out. Suddenly a loud bang was hard along with gas hissing.
The SWAT team was here.
"Ash!" Harry yells kicking the door trying to get his little brother to open the door.
"Open the door!" Fez bangs on the door.
"Don't move! Drop the knife now!"
Harry and Fez both put their hands up as they beg not to shoot. They were scared for the first times in their lives.
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! There's a kid in there!" Harry shouts turning his head to see the SWAT team surrounding them.
"Please Ash, come out!" Fez rasps but a smoke bomb going off makes Ashtray start shooting. Suddenly Harry falls to the floor because of a sharp pain going though his stomach.
The SWAT team from every corner begin to shoot at the bathroom. Harry whimpers as Fez continues shouting.
The gunfire begins to slowly stop making Harry look up to see the bathroom door full of bullet holes. His heart dropped when he nor Fez got a response from their brother.
"Ash! Answer me!"
A swat member making his way to the bathroom shushes Harry. Soon the bathroom door opens showing Ashtray laid on the floor.
"He's down!"
Suddenly Ash sits up and fires his gun to the man in front of him making Harry wince. Once the SWAT member falls to the ground a red laser trails it's way onto Ashtray's forehead.
Harry closes his eyes and turns his head knowing what's coming next. He begins to sob uncontrollably when he hears a body thud.

Chapter Summary: You had gotten what you wanted, but at what cost? Nightmares ensue, and Dream’s true colors begin to show.
pairing: c!wilbur x queen!reader
an// IM BACK!! hopefully yall like this chaper cause this is the last one that I wrote in the past, Im writing chapter 6 rn so it might take a while. Also sorry for not posting requests I really wanted to get this chapter out there
⚠︎ swearing, dsmp spoliers(?), angst, arguing, smoking, explosions, gaslighting(?), not proofread.
Series Masterlist 
"Good job you two! This is all yours now.”
Dream had led you and Eret back to the castle, all of them still battered and bruised from the war they recently had. You had already taken off your armor and now you were wearing underneath your L'Manburg outfit that was torn and burnt showing some of your skin which was also burnt or cut. You had noticed on the way to the castle that Dream had kept on looking at the outfit that Eret and you had on with disgust, like a taunt.
You could finally relax in the huge castle that you apparently deserved because you and Eret had taken the first lives of the citizens of L'Manburg. In your heart you knew that L'Manburg was still a country. They all have two more lives and they will build the country up again with those two lives. You sighed then kept walking into the throne room. you looked at the two big thrones that sat next to each other. One for a king and one for a queen.
"Why are you standing there? Sit down! Relax!" Dream patted one of the thrones.
You and Eret had sat down on the thrones next to each other looking around the huge throne room and Dream smiling right in front of them. Once you both sat down you tried to sit up straight, but you wanted to slump down into the comfy, plush, velvet and gold chair. The two of them sat on velvet and gold thrones while in burnt and torn L'Manburg uniforms. It was a sight to see, and if someone didn't know the context of what just happened, this scene would've made sense to them.
"I'm happy you did this. You deserve all of this." Dream said while walking along the marble floor.
"It's beautiful, but I'm exhausted." You let your head fall to the side. You sighed wanting Dream to leave so you could finally get some rest.
"I bet."
"Eret are you okay?" You spoke up after Dream.
Eret had a look that you couldn't make out. He just stared off into space in his own mind. He shook his head after you called for him again.
"Yeah, yeah I am fine. I'm just thinking." Eret quickly responded.
"What are you thinking about?" Dream said in a monotone voice.
"If we did the right thing." Eret sighed.
You slowly nodded because you were thinking the exact same thing. They were traitors, you had built somewhat of a connection with those people you helped kill. And now what? you're living in a huge castle and apparently you "Shouldn't be feeling this way", Dream claimed.
"You two are overreacting. They are fine." Dream said bluntly while staring at them with a straight face.
That was a huge lie, their lives were taken today. They're not just “fine”.
"You two were never a part of that place anyways. This is your home! Why would you need to wear those hideous colors? They look bad on you, it's unflattering. There is no need to go back." Dream explained.
You hang your head not knowing what to say to the man, there wasn’t really anything to say but you spoke up hoping the words will come to you.
"I don't-"
"You don't have to say anything, it's okay. You're safe now. Did you get hurt?" Dream asked.
The bruises and scars said differently.
"Remember when I said that?" Dream pushed the question.
You rubbed a burn mark on your wrist and laughed a bit. "No! Actually I don't. We're safe now, but that doesn't mean we aren't hurt." You chuckled in disbelief.
"Well maybe if you listened to me you wouldn't be so anxious. If you listened you wouldn't have been so hesitant. You're safe." Dream said sternly.
"Maybe you're tired, Dream. We're all tired. Shall we go to bed?" Eret stood up and held out his hand to help you up from your seat.
You accepted his hand and started to follow Eret through the huge castle making your way through the huge, high ceiling halls. The three walked towards the king's and queen's room in the castle, Dream kept a slower pace and walked behind the two wanting to get one more word in before leaving the castle.
"If you two are ever in doubt just remember that you are on the right side of history." Dream said then turned around to leave the two alone.
You both stopped and turned around to see Dream’s back facing the both of you as he walked away. You and Eret eventually made it to your new bedrooms. There was a big door which held a huge room made for the both of them to sleep in and two separate rooms next to the bigger door which were made for one person. Eret and you stood in front of the bigger door staring at the intricate designs on the door not speaking to each other.
"So?" Eret laughed.
"So!" You exclaimed while chuckling.
"Are you okay sleeping in that huge room tonight?" Eret asked.
"I'm not totally comfortable with that, but it would be weird if we slept in the same bed. Don't get me wrong! You're a great friend, but-"
"Y/N/N stop! I'm okay with that too. I wasn't looking to sleep in the same bed. Yes we're married, but we're just staying friends, hey we might get a divorce later." Eret explained.
"If I do, we won't be king and queen anymore." You said softly to your husband.
"Is that what you want? To be "queen"?" Eret asked while putting air quotes around the word queen.
You paused for a moment then answered his question.
"I don't know where I'm supposed to be, Eret." You looked up at him sadly and he pulled you in for a hug. It took you everything you had to not cry into the L'Manburg uniform Eret was wearing. Today drained you mentally and physically, your hands were raw from shooting arrows, you had burn marks on your skin and your feet hurt from running through the kingdom. You weren’t sure about where you would go, because this didn't feel like your home.
"Let's go to bed and we'll talk in the morning. Rest on it because I'll happily divorce you so you can find your place in this huge kingdom." Eret laughed and let you out of his arms.
You chuckled and then let him go walking into what was supposed to be the queen's room and right next to it was the king's room which they both walked in after saying goodnight and closing their doors finally having time to themselves after a long day.
You finally took off the L'Manburg uniform and laid it on a velvet chair in the corner of the huge room. You stared at the uniform before going to the nearest closet and picking out something to wear for that night. The queen's room was basically the huge couple's room that you found before, but just with a smaller bed. There were still trinkets, jewelry and even clothes in the closet. you took a nightgown out of the closet and sat on the plush bed. You ended up laying down staring at the high ceiling thinking of the predicament Eret's question brought.
You finally retired for the night and crawled into bed and got under the soft covers. The window was open so a soft cool breeze was blowing through the room letting the curtains flow with the breeze. If you left you wouldn't have anywhere to go except back to L'Manburg, they would never let you back even if you tried. They probably hated your guts by now, so maybe divorcing wasn't a good idea. You had a set home here, you had food, clothes, and you weren't under attack every minute. you didn't have to watch your back for any enemies.
Your mind slowed down as you finally lulled yourself into a deep sleep forgetting the troubles in your mind for only a moment.
-------------------
The sunset fell over the horizon making it a gold, red color. It was beautiful. The trees were illuminated and the lakes had a certain glow to them. you could see mobs began to crawl out of the ground and caves, but you was safe up here.
You looked down and saw the familiar obsidian walls. It seemed like a faint memory, but in reality the walls were real. It was like you could feel the stone underneath your feet at this moment. you could see inside L'Manburg.
you saw Tubbo and Tommy laying in the grass talking to one another. you saw Fundy sleeping in the grass next to them. There were two new faces you had never seen before. It was a woman with short pink hair and another man with a shaved head. It might've been your mind putting people in your dreams to fill space. Then you saw Eret sitting by a small river letting his bare feet flow in the water. It was a peaceful scene.
"Beautiful sunset isn't it?" A voice showed up beside you.
It was Wilbur. He had his uniform on, it was clean like the war didn't even happen.
"It is really beautiful." You agreed watching the sun continue to lower over the trees.
"You know everything the sun touches is yours? It's all of ours. It just so happens that you can see the sunset and sunrise from L'Manburg. You can do anything as long as you see the sun rise and fall." Wilbur said, keeping his gaze soft at the sunset.
You hummed but stayed quiet admiring his words and the sunset.
"Let me tell you what I wish I'd known when I was young and dreamed of glory. You have no control who lives, who dies, who tells your story. After you took one of my lives away I understand now. You can't control other people and their motivations."
You hang your head in disappointment, but then Wilbur continued.
"But I know that we can win. I know that greatness lies in you, but remember from here on in that history has its eyes on you. History will forever have its eyes on you no matter what you do." Wilbur looked into your eyes as the sun set on the two of them the stars began to shine.
The light brown eyes Wilbur had turned darker because of the sunlight being gone. You looked out back at the mobs in the forest and the huge towers in the sky made the kingdoms members. you turned around and looked into L'Manburg. Or what was considered L'Manburg.
There was no one there anymore, instead of people there were huge amounts of TNT that filled the walls behind them. you could hear faint voices around them, people that you didn't know. It sounded like chaos. you whipped your head around to Wilbur who was dressed in a brown tattered trench coat, brown pants, and a white shirt instead of the L'Manburg uniform.
He had a cigarette in his mouth and matches in his hands. He smirked at you as the voices around you got louder and your head sounded like you were in the middle of a tornado. your head was buzzing as your eyes couldn't focus on Wilbur in front of you. It felt like these moments were happening right in front of your all at one time.
"You want to be a hero Tommy?"
"You know if I die, this country goes down with me."
"if respect is the only thing protecting you from a knife in the back, then respect is nothing, right?"
"Kill me, Phil. Phil, kill me, Phil kill me! Phil, stab me with the sword, murder me now, kill me! Look-"
"You know Y/N" Wilbur started next to you. He lit a match and turned around to L'Manburg which was now filled with TNT.
"Somethings. Somethings were never meant to be." He threw the match into the huge pile of TNT and all in a second the obsidian underneath your feet disappeared as you fell into the explosion beneath you.
-------------------------
"Fuck! Where am I?!" You shot up from your sleeping position in a cold sweat.
You frantically felt around the bed trying to convince yourself that you were physically at the castle in your bed. You finally caught your breath and laid back down in your bed finding yourself staring at the ceiling again. Even with the window open blowing cool air into the room, your skin still felt hot. You ended up tossing the covers off of you and making your way towards the entrance of the kingdom to get some air.
That dream was so much stuff in it you couldn't comprehend all of it. It was like Wilbur was there as if he was talking to you directly and it wasn't a dream and it made you second guess yourself and think that it may have not been a dream. You finally made it outside and sat on one of the steps that led people up into the kingdom. you sighed and breathed in the fresh air and it immediately relaxed your body and mind. You were alive, you were here and sadly Wilbur wasn't there. You closed your eyes and felt the breeze around you until you were startled by a figure beside you.
"You're up late. I thought you said you were mentally tired." Dream chuckled sitting beside you.
"I had a bad dream." You sighed.
"Hey don't take my name in vain like that" Dream laughed trying to bring up your mood.
Dream sighed and stood back up when he didn't get a response from his companion.
"Come one, let's go. Let's get your mind off of the one bad dream." Dream held his hand out, gesturing to you to take it.
You took his hand and then released it letting him lead the way to wherever the wind may take them. The dream is currently still stuck in your head. The voices from different people confused you and made your head spin.
"You want to be a hero Tommy?" What did that mean? Was someone threatening Tommy? Will someone threaten Tommy? You grew to care for that kid.
Who said "If I die, this country goes down with me"? What country. L'Manburg?
"If respect is the only thing protecting you from a knife in the back, then respect is nothing, right?" That one stumped you the most. you didn't even know if this was being spoken to you or to someone else. All of them except for the Tommy one.
Were they all even dreams? The one that haunted your mind the most was the one where someone was telling a man named Phil to kill them. Were you there for that moment? Did Phil kill the person? Who was Phil? All these thoughts and questions plagued your mind so much that your feet mindlessly carried you wherever Dream led you to.
"Here we are." Dream led You on top of a hill, a tall enough hill to see the main attraction. The place you missed the most, L'Manburg.
Tears started to form in your eyes and you tried blinking them away. All the moments of that dream appeared in your brain, but even stronger. you never felt these emotions before. Maybe L'Manburg was your home all along. you missed seeing Tubbo, Tommy, Eret and Fundy doing their own thing while your and Wilbur had a deep talk inside the van. you had spent weeks with them growing too attached to them and then ended up becoming a traitor.
"That place. You never belonged there. You're too good for them." Dream started and you stayed quiet watching the stars begin to disappear.
"Do you trust me?" Dream asked.
You stayed quiet not having the answer he wanted to hear. He wanted to hear you say that you trusted him when in reality you couldn’t, you weren't fully there yet, not anymore. 
"They lied to you. It's not your home." Dream continued on letting you listen and not talk.
"How did you know if someone said it was my home or not?" You asked, startled.
"I might've been keeping an eye on you. I wanted to make sure my flower was okay." Dream kept his gaze on L'Manburg.
"Stop calling me that." You sighed.
"I never started. This was the first time I said that. Who called you flower?" Dream suddenly got serious, staring at you.
you kept your sights on the obsidian walls, not sparing him a glance. The stars began to fade and the sun peeked over the horizon. As they stayed longer the sun rose over the walls of L'Manburg. You started to remember the words in the dream you had.
"You know everything the sun touches is yours? It's all of ours. It just so happens that you can see the sunset and sunrise from L'Manburg. You can do anything as long as you see the sun rise and fall."
L'Manburg stands for independence. Independence. That word kept ringing through your head like a mantra until a few voices below the hill and near the walls alerted you.
"HEY! Hey Wilbur! Give me back my shit!" Tommy yelled as he stomped after the older man.
"Wilbur get Tommy to stop shouting and give him his swords back please!" Fundy yelled trailing behind the two.
"No not until he learns not to go start stabbing shit!" Wilbur yelled back at the other two.
You missed that. you missed the bickering and the nonsense they all shared. you were upset that Tommy still hadn't learned his lesson and you wished you were there beside them at that moment.
Dream spoke up giving you a look you couldn’t quite get. "You are never allowed to step inside those walls again.
"What gives you the right to tell me what and what not to do? Who does that make you? Who do you think-"
"YOU ARE NEVER ALLOWED TO GO IN THOSE WALLS!" Dream yelled getting dangerously close to you.
You continued to stare at those blue eyes as the bright sun rose over the dark walls of L’Manburg. you didn't say anything but descended down the mountain alone with the sounds of Tommy, Fundy, and Wilbur bickering in the background, wishing you were there and not next to the man next to you who was staring at you angrily.
"I know what’s good for you! I know what's good for this country! Just trust me Y/N!" Dream yelled starting an argument
"Would you calm down! You came here to be all quiet and now you're yelling at me. You might want to be quiet before Wilbur hears you. Or do you want me to get him myself?" You yelled back, getting furious.
"Oh you wish! He doesn't care for you as much as me, Sapnap and George do! They agree as well!"
"Don't put words into his mouth!" You accused
"Oh! So if he cares so fucking much he would've help save you. And do you know what would happen if he saved you?! You would've died! I saved you! You were in a perfect situation and all you had to do is not complain! You're always overreacting." Dream ended with a huff and rolled his eyes while turning away..
you were speechless at this point. Overwhelming emotions consumed you. you couldn't believe you were overreacting. Maybe Wilbur wasn't everything you needed. you were overreacting, you were being selfish too. Dream was right. Dream walked over to you pulling you in a hug with L'Manburg was still in your sights.
"I did everything because I love you. You're too precious for them, you're not for them. They don't deserve you, you deserve someone who wants the best for you. A flower that needs a home and I'm here to give it to you." Dream softly explained.
Your eyes kept tearing up at the words and different emotions flowing through you. The sights on L'Manburg make your memories and questions come back. Where did you belong? But more importantly who was telling the truth?

Sylvester the Cat x Toon!Reader || Drabble
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Plot: I'm just experimenting with the Looney Tune idea so possibly enjoy some cute Sylvester Jr wanting you to be his new other parent.
Warnings: Toon violence?
You're just tying up the ends of Wile E's bandages into a tight little knot, prompting a wince from the coyote and a little board sign saying 'Ouch!'. Immediately you wince, stepping back. "Ohh... sorry, Wile E... I'm not exactly certified... " Daffy made you do this job, seeing as you're worse at sports then any of them- and that's saying something.
His head falls forward slightly and his ears wilt as you step back.
"Okay! Who's nex- " Turning around - picking up some more bandages and band aids in one fist, and an industrial sized tube of Acme branded antiseptic cream tucked under your other arm, - you look about for your next patient.
- And droop as soon as you see what kind if work load is waiting for you. It looks like every toon you know is lined up for medical attention!
The bandages and band aids slip out of your hands and scatter across the floor. "Oh boy." Quickly taking a deep breath to refresh yourself, you perk right up in order to get to it. Okay! "Sly! You're first, what's wro- Uh, hah. Nevermind."
Looking at him... maybe you don't have to ask...
Tweety flies through the giant gaping hole in Sylvester's tummy and the cat gives great sigh, slumping forward. "Why are the only times he's in there are when he can get out!!"
"I know, I know, woe is you. Sit down." You have no time for sympathies right now, you can allocate Sly only 2 minutes- and that's because you like him. The other patients coming get only one. "Okay, Sly!... um... " Oh brother you're stuck. Why do you do with an ailment like this?? Sylvester patiently sits, waiting for you to finish as you set your paws on your hips with a huff... wondering where exactly to go from here. Hm. "Do you maybe... know where your insides... are? Like, presently?"
"Uhh, they were... disintegrated... "
You two share a concerned look. "Maybe... spackle?- "
Just as Sylvester is gulping down his fear at your crazy suggestion, a certain black and white kitten comes speeding out of the crowd at the two of you. "FATHER!" Sylvester Junior stops at his fathers side, eyes wide with worry. "Father! Is he okay, Y/N??"
As you start rifling through your medical kit for something actually useful, you waive a dismissive paw at the kitten. "Oh, don't worry SJ. Your dad has recovered from worse- you know that."
Oh- that gives you an idea! It may not be strictly medical... or orthodox in the least, but its worth a try! Come on- you guys are toons. Straightening up, you look to the court; Searching for the little yellow speck you know is flying around somewhere.
Sylvester Jr nods slowly, pouting. His eyes are big, and round, and adorably full of worry. "Do you think I can sit on his lap safely, Y/N?"
Oh he's just the cutest. You turn back to your patient and raise your brows at him. "Can he?"
Sly perks up at the chance to get some much needed affection - rather then shameful berating, - from his rugrat. "Of course he can- come on, son- oww... " Unfortunately Sylvester Junior throws caution to the wind, and launches his little body at his father- almost going all the way through and causing you to seriously wince, but luckily Sylvester has a good grip on him and sets him in his lap rather then inside the cavern that was his belly. "Aghhh... thanks, son... I feel a lot better now... oof!- "
Sylvester Junior has thrown his arms around his father, and your heart leaps at the adorable scene...
Except- you wouldn't have, if you had heard what was really going on in that hug.
Sylvester's eyes widen and he deadpans at his son, hearing the words that come out in a rushed, hoarse whisper as soon as the hug he thought was genuine closes around his neck. Of course... this is his son, after all...
"How am I doing, Father?? Is Y/N looking?? I've been told that other cats become more inclined to date a cat who's good with children!, and since you're hopeless at that, I've elected myself, your darling baby son, to help you! So, are they looking father??"
"Junior!"
"Yes father???"
"I do not need your help to woo anyone, and I'm working on Y/N... " Sly tries to assure Jr, not sounding totally sure as his eyes fall downcast. "Its, uh, just a slow process, is all... " After a moment, he proudly lifts his chin, and he would puff out his chest, if... you know.. it was there... "I got your mother on my own, didn't I??"
Sylvester's proud moment is cut off quickly as his son pulls away from him to give a very deadpanned, sassy expression at the mention of his absentee mother cat. "And where is she, may I ask, father??"
A loud 'Aha!' comes from you a few feet away as you jump up, and grab something right out of the air.
Deeply rolling his eyes, irritation flickering inside him at the antics of his son, Sylvester Sr plonks him down on the bench beside him, angrily crossing his arms. Jr follows suit, looking like an exact replica of his father... except, smaller.
Blinking blankly around to see the two, with Tweety now wriggling around in your paws, you giggle at the sight. "What happened to you two? You were having such a heart warming father-son moment a second ago!"
"I'm full of shame, Y/N. Oh woe... "Sylvester Jr sighs, shaking his head as Sr turns his head slowly to look at him. "How am I to face my friends at the playground... My father- a loser!"
Sylvester pointedly looks away, angry eyes pointing towards the court. "My son... a spoiled brat. How am I ever to show my face in society, again?" An even heavier sigh comes out of Sylvester Jr at that remark, and Sylvester Sr immediately jumps up from the bench, pointing a stern finger at his son. "Oh no ya don't- Don't you dare get out that bag!!"
"But Father! I'm full of shame!" Sylvester Jr whines, holding the paper bag in his lap as you watch the two in wonderment. How they can bicker like this, and still have such an adorable, open relationship you have no clue - some kids are too scared to talk back to their fathers, - but the state of these two's relationship is truly, really endearing to you.
Oh how you love Sly... You catch yourself swooning at the thought of him, and immediately stop yourself. Stop it, Y/N! This is not the time for that. Taking a deep breath, you shake yourself. Okay, back to the task at hand.
Meanwhile, Sylvester snatches the paper bag away from Jr. "Oh, cut that out, wouldja?!"
While there's a pause in the argument, you jump and take your chance to hold up Tweety in front of Sylvester's face- his pupils shrinking at the sight and his teeth growing sharper, somehow.
"Oh no oh no- You mean old puddy tads- using me like this!" Tweety exclaims, wings pressed firmly to your paws and pushing, struggling to wiggle up and out of your tight grip. Yeah yeah, you think. Tell it to the choir.
Hopefully when I let Tweety go, Sly will give chase... and be all better!
Heh... isn't that how it works? It is, right? He'll 'perk right up'! you could say.
"Alright... here goes nothing!" You squeak, closing your eyes and letting Tweety go, hoping to god that Sylvester doesn't trample you in his endeavour to snatch his favourite little yellow bird.
Feeling a wind blow against you side and ruffling your fur as Sylvester springs to action, you slowly crack your eyes open again- first seeing Sylvester Jr as he still sits on the bench in front of you swinging his legs over the side of the bench, before peaking over your shoulder, and... "Yes!" You cry out as soon as your keen feline eyes catch sight of Sylvester looking good as new again on the court, chasing Tweety through the still-roaring basketball game. Clasping your hands together, your tail wiggles excitedly behind your back. "It worked!"
"What?" Sylvester hears your cheering and immediately halts in his tracks, looking at you then down at himself- a big, toothy smile spreading across his face when he see's he's all better. "Y/N! You did it! Thanks!"
"Of course!" You call back, then point at the scoreboard and wink. "Now kick those Monstar's butts for me!"
The green Monstar turns a squinty looking evil eye on you at hearing your words but you don't care- you're far too busy burning the image of Sly giving you a thumbs up into your mind.
"Heheh, no problem... " That trademark evil grin slips across Sly's face again as he rubs his paws together, turning his attention back to the game as you sigh, paws on your hips; Happy with your job well done.
"Uh, hello??" Someone speaks up from behind you, and you jump, suddenly remembering the mile long line of toons that still need medical attention.
Ohhh... great. You slowly turn around, seeing Elmer giving you angry eyes and quickly look extremely apologetic, paws awkwardly behind your back and spine as straight as a plank. Oops!
You might seem help... you think you tilting your head to see the rest of the long... long, l o n g line. "Uhh... SJ? You wanna help me play nurse, maybe?"
"Oh, yes Y/N!" He exclaims enthusiastically, hopping off the bench and taking up your medical kit in his short little arms- which is way too big for him. You giggle and take it from the kitten, patting his head. "I'll be happy to be your assistant!"
Fist bumping each other, you wink. "That's the kinda attitude I like to see! Lets go."
~
A couple hours and countless injuries later and the game is coming to a nail chewing close. Truly, this is a new level of anxiety you're feeling as you leave Sylvester Junior, now exhausted and up past his bedtime, curled in Granny's lap with a blanket strewn over him. Then you sit back down to watch the game beside a very injured Sly, as Witch Hazel defibrillates Taz.
If Michael doesn't make this shot - with but seven seconds to go, - he has to move to Moron Mountain in your place. You all dragged him here for help and now h's the one with everything on the line.
You cant help but feel a massive load of guilt.
"Oh I cant watch!" You squeak suddenly amongst the thunderous sounds of the audience at 4 seconds, and cover your eyes. "Tell me when its over!"
.
.
.
3 seconds later, the buzzer screeches and you hear the toons around you cheering, and peak out nervously from beyond your paws. ... What happened?
Your gaze flickers to the score board.
Oh my god. A deep, relieved breath comes out of you. "We won!?"
"We won!" Sylvester concurs, jumping up from the bench and throwing a fist into the air. Then he puts his paws on your arms and beams down at you. "We're not gonna be slaves!!"
You wonder what you could say in response, but the one thing your body is telling to you to do is throw your arms around him- so you do. And he doesn't think twice before squeezing you back, picking you up and swinging you around.
Then the world comes crashing down around Sly, as his son opens his eyes to see the scene- and gasps. The kitten sits up quickly in Granny's lap and points. "Oh, father! You did it! I knew you could do it!"
Immediately Sylvester puts you down, his paws retreating from you and a definite sense of nervousness - and maybe embarrassment? - settles over him. You raise your brows, confused, but still swimming in the joy of the game being won and just tilt your head as you confusedly smile. "What did he do??"
Sly Jr doesn't even think a second before gleefully elaborating- despite his father very nearly shaking his soul free waving his hands at him in a doomed endeavour to shut his son up. "No- stop, Junior!- "
"Asked you out! Didn't he?" As the wide eyed bewilderment on your face and the utter horror on Sylvester's dawns on Jr, his shoulders drop and he turns disappointedly at his dad. "Didn't you?"
"No!"
"Oh, father!- "
Sylvester Sr's tail, shoulders, and head slump forward as he turns his kitten around so he faces away from the two of you, embarrassment replaced by exasperation. "You're tired, son. Go to sleep. Night night, sleep tight, sweet dreams, don't let the bed bugs bite and we'll talk in the morning." Then he slowly, meekly turns back to you.
And you're practically glowing. "Sly... what's he talking about?"
"Father likes you!- " Sylvester Jr tries to speak up again, turning his head but Sr twists his head carefully back, a reprimanding tone in his voice.
"Sleep! Hah hah... " Sylvester (Sr) turns back to you, arms held carefully behind his back as he chuckles nervously. "My son is... troubled... a little- "He point at his head and swirls his finger; A gesture reading 'Loopy'. As soon as the meaning behind that word and his gesture occurs to you, you visibly droop. Oh. Okay... I guess SJ was just messing with us... Sly watches this reaction, and his ears perk up quickly; Sensing some dissappintment. "I mean, uh... unless you liked the i-idea?"
You peak up at him again from the floor, seeing his face slowly going red. "... D-do you?"
"Wha- I asked first! You answer the question."
"Hey." Setting your fists to your hips, you look stubbornly at him. "You were just taking it all back! So you tell the truth. Which is it??"
"Yeah- but I asked the question first!"
"Sylvester James Pussycat Senior!"
"Pfft... if you think pulling full name on me is going to change anything... " He rolls his eyes, crossing his arms. "You've got another thing comin'!"
Your eyes narrow, and so do his, before suddenly Taz jumps up from the bench he was resting on and ZOOMS past Sly so fast and so hazardously, that he's caught off guard and jumps forward with a yelp- accidentally knocking you.
"Oh!-"
"H-hold on, I got ya!!" Sylvester's eyes widen to the size of dinner plates and he grabs you just before gravity manages to drag you down to the ground; Pulling you back up to your feet- which just so happens to bring you two extremely close together.
Two sets of eyes widen and faces go red.
Everything seems to go a little quieter around you, the deafening sounds of the auditorium seeming to get plunged under water as the crazy all just slows down for just a moment. Enough for you to enjoy the few seconds you foreseeably get before he jumps back like someone sprayed him.
But to your surprise, he doesn't move. Just stands there and looks shocked... but does not move even an inch away from you. Doesn't even let go of you.
Finally, after a few good moments, you sigh and give in. "... Sly, would you like to go out sometime with me?"
"Ah... " His ears flatten against his head as he looks bashful, with a cute little smile that makes your stomach do backflips as he curls his tail around yours. "Yes, I'd like that very much."
You lean up and give him a feather light kiss on the cheeks- and he goes even redder.

Hearts And Spades And Friendship With Games (Disneyland: Ace Trappola and Deuce Spade x MC!Reader) 
Tumblr media
The time had finally arrived. You had been waiting for this day for a long time. After a good bit of convincing on both Ace and Deuce's ends for the upcoming spring season, you had convinced the pair to travel with yourself and Grim over to a very magical place- Disneyland. You had been gushing about wishing to go ever since you had heard mentions of the place- after all, there was nothing like that back where you were from. So, here you were. You were now sitting upon a bus and happily chirping away to both Grim and Deuce. Grim was beside you in your seat while Deuce and Ace were directly across from you. Ace snorted after a while, shaking his head and glancing over at you. "I can't believe you're this choked up about a kid's park. Pffft- how childish! Haha!" Deuce sighed and shook his head, sending his fellow friend a glare. "And yet, you agreed to come with us. So, maybe it isn't as childish as you claim." The boys were already beginning to bicker back and forth. Grim shifted over to rest within your lap, gazing up at you happily. "Nyaaaahhaaaa! This is gonna be fun, y'know! Think of all the food! La la la~" You couldn't help but to release a giggle at the monster beneath you, now lightly petting him upon the head. "I am really excited about this, Grim! It seemed so...magical when everyone started talking about it! Hehe." Deuce soon looked over at you with a wide smile, his eyes lighting up and practically dazzling in the sunlight from the outside of the bus. "We're gonna get lots of pictures and souvenirs, okay? I'm going to find something extra special for my mom while we are there." Ace shook his head and snickered, glancing on over at his friend again. "Pleeaaassseeeee. I'll just be on the lookout for some princess material ladies. Hehe." After an eyebrow arch from you, Ace rose his hands in defense and laughed. "I'm kidddddiinngggg, [Y/n]. You're more close to queen material, anyways. Haha!" 
Right as you were about to retort, the bus screeched to a stop. The doors slowly opened, multiple other park-goers now making their way out into the land. Your little ragtag group was the last to get off. You allowed your eyes to widen in wonder and curiosity at the sight of the grand park. Deuce seemed to smile as he gazed up at the grand castle, as though a memory was playing through his head. Grim leapt out and jumped onto your shoulder to get a better view, already singing out his joy. Ace was the last to get off. He seemed to be a bit more passive about it, but you would be lying if you said you didn't see a sparkle in his eyes as well. The four of you now began to walk over to the main entrance with the rest of the crowd. Multiple occurrences began to hit your senses all at once. Children laughing joyfully filled your ears, the sizzling sensations of nearby food trucks wafted out into the air and graced your nostrils with its presence, and the bright and cheerful colors of the park all melded together into one gregarious scene. A warm smile tugged at your lips at the sights. A costumed man suddenly stepped up behind the four of you. The four of you turn around to face him and begin to chat. The fellow waves his hand, sparkles raining down from his fingertips. Four little headbands of sorts appeared upon the head of yourself and that of your friends. A cute little headband with mouse ears and a red polka dot bow popped itself onto Ace's head. For Deuce, another little headband with mouse ears- except with a. starry, deep blue, mini wizard's hat. For Grim, a cute little headband with a sailor's cap had popped onto his head. And finally, for yourself, a pair of white gloved hands that stuck out on either side of your head like ears upon a black headband was conjured onto your head.
Tumblr media
Ace began to whine about his headband having a bow on it, to which the staff member laughed. He explained that the headbands were complementary and strode off. You gently poked at one of the hands upon your own headband and giggled. Grim leapt around with his sailor's hat on for joy, already making a beeline for a food stand. Given prompting from yourself, Ace and Deuce soon followed you as you chased after Grim. The monster had grabbed a little ice cream bar in the shape of a mouse's head and was now eating it happily. The rest of you soon followed suit, already snapping a few pictures away and settling down onto a bench. Once the bars were done, the four of you arose and began to travel around to different stands. A roller coaster with water included by the name of Splash Mountain was soon selected, the four of you joyously laughing or groaning out after being soaked so much. After that, a frightening stroll through the Haunted Mansion was taken. The effect of the walk-in "ride" of sorts seemed to have greatly improved over the years- for Ace had leapt into Deuce's arms a couple of times in his own fright. You had to hold Deuce back from punching a few of the more particularly scary creatures in the face while Grim nearly lit the entire mansion on fire. More rides were traveled on, such as Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (Deuce screamed something about his magic bike during that one), some Pirates Of The Caribbean ride (Ace imitated a pirate the entire time and laughed about Jack's Halloween idea from before), Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage (Grim kept saying something about finding a live tuna and eating it), and many more. But nothing seemed to excite the pair of boys more than when your group finally made their way over to the Wonderland themed area. Ace and Deuce were both beside themselves in their joy. Ace madly tapped both you and Deuce on the shoulder, pointing at a nearby costumed park worker. "Look at that card suit guy! I wonder how they get those costumes so exact?!" Deuce followed his gaze, already pulling out his phone and turning to the both of you with a wide smile. "Let's go get a picture!" A giggle from yourself and a shake of your head is all that's given. You soon follow the pair over, Grim slowly making his way over behind you (he had to make sure people didn't step on him a lot). Ace soon grinned wildly and turned to you, eyeballing your form. "Ohhhhhh yeah. That'll be awesome." You couldn't help but to feel worried at the look on Ace's face. The Card Soldier slammed his staff down upon the ground, a dazzling ruby light now surrounding your form. Once the light cleared, you found yourself in an almost identical Card Soldier suit- but yours was red while the worker's was black. The worker gave a nod with another pair of slams of his staff in a farewell, now walking over to greet more park goers. Deuce pumped his fist into the air at the sight of you. "Aaaahhhh- you look so awesome, Prefect! This'll be perfect!" You couldn't help but to grin at the sight of yourself now in the suit, slamming your own makeshift staff upon the ground to accompany the look. Grim laughed and took Deuce's phone, now leaping up onto a high enough ledge to take a picture. He grinned brightly, making motions for all of you to make a pose. "Alright! Nyaha! Everybody say- hearts and spades!" All three of you copied what Grim had said and posed. Once a few pictures were snapped, you found the costume upon you began to slowly melt off of your form. A singular red rose was now upon your top with a miniature card with a heart upon it now clipped onto it in the costume’s place. 
By now, the sun was beginning to set. Grim stayed down below and got a few more bites to eat while the three of you went onto a ferris wheel. The sun was now slowly beginning to set, painting the sky a vibrant array of warm colors. You sighed out in bliss, allowing your chin to cradle within your hand. Ace and Deuce both glanced at each other for a moment and then looked on over at you. Almost immediately, both of their expressions seemed to soften. Ace was the first one to speak up, confident and boisterous as ever. "Hey, Prefect- I have something I want to tell you." Deuce choked a bit on the air and blushed, now gazing at you as well within your seat. "S-so do I! Ahem." You couldn't help but to arch a brow again, peering on over at the two boys. Your gaze flickered between the two of them, their skin seeming to glow and sparkle in the cascading sunlight behind you. At the exact same time, the pair looked up at you and spoke, "I love you, [Y/n]." Ace's expression was rather warm yet still held a flicker of his normal mischief within them. Deuce's expression was all around warm and rather soft in comparison to his normal outbursts of anger from time to time. They both soon began to blush and allowed their eyes to widen at their realization of their exact same statements. Ace and Deuce met gazes for a moment. They glared playfully at each other for a moment and then brought their intense gazes back to you. Your eyes slightly watered as you sniffed and wiped a free tear away, your smile now extending from ear to ear. You brought them both into an embrace, grinning sweetly in the sunset. "...Don't worry. I love you too, boys." Both boys seemed to exhale in relief. Ace raised an eyebrow at Deuce to which Deuce nodded. They both leaned in at the same time, kissing you on the cheek. As you froze and a blush began to spread across your cheeks, they both took their own moments to sweetly kiss you upon your lips in kind. Ace's kiss was fierce- all around passionate and a bit salty to the taste. Deuce's, on the other hand, combated Ace's kiss on the opposing spectrum. A sensation of overwhelming sweetness and a gentle touch was the kiss Deuce gave to you, truly displaying how much the male had changed at heart. You brought both of the boy's into a hug, the pair now settling within your arms. As the sun began to fully disappear beyond the reaches of the park, there was one thing you had to admit. This day had been filled with sugar, a bit of spice...but was all around nice. And the magic was just beginning. 💫
((Hey hey, lovely Readers! I've got something a little different for y'all today! Thought I'd switch things up a bit and give you guys some extreme fluff with a cute little Disneyland writing! Props to @leviskokoro-main for the "idea". Enjoy~💖

About your last post on the wiki article I have a lot of thoughts for some reason because that whole situation with that scene is just honestly a case study on how warped the view RWBY fans have of the show and it was pretty hilarious (in a laughing through the pain sort of way).
1. Of course you had fans who from the get go justified Weiss threatening her bother with a weapon as completely justified as if threatening unarmed person with a loaded weapon especially a minor isn't a whole ass crime in real life.
2. And then you had fans who justified it by saying that Weiss is an abuse victim and under stress it makes sense she would regress to acting like her abuser so it's realistic! Which would be a good point if Weiss ever so much as acknowledged her bad actions and tried to make up for it (which she didn't). Or just generally justifying it as Weiss being stressed out, so at least acknowledging she did something wrong.
3. And then you have RWBY fans who elect to pretend that it never happened at all and subtly like posts calling out the scene as shitty but never actually saying it themselves.
4. And then you have a few fans who actually came out and were like "yeah I usually defend everything about this show but that scene was pretty shitty what the hell MKEK".
And then the commentary for that scene came out and * gestures wildly at Kerry saying "yeah well Weiss threatened him with a weapon but she also hugged him" among other things * the writers really shot themselves in the foot like they always do and suddenly nobody in the fndm wants to acknowledge it anymore except for a few in group 1 & 4.
It's honestly pretty facinating because you've had rwby critics saying since v5 that the writers treatment of serious topics (such as male abuse victims) is sorely lacking (the treatment of ozpin being the longest running one I can remember), which were always justified by the fandom using technicalities like "ozpin is morally grey and lied to them!" "Ironwood has always been a bad person!" and even "sun deserved to be slapped he was stalking Blake!". But watching even the simp-iest fans hit a solid brick wall in real time trying to find any technicality that could even somewhat justify physically threatening a neglected/abused/nonthreatening 14 year old with a dangerous weapon without sounding like a horrible person in the process has honestly been the highlight of v8 for me. It's like watching a train wreck.
Hey anon! I am glad you can find something out of all of this mess but for me....it's just painful. I can't even laugh at the chaos because it just is so damn harmful as you said. The show is happy to perpetrate extremely and horrifically toxic ideals to its audience who then eats it up and treats it like it is morally correct to believe in those ideals.
People are genuinely hurt by the harmful morals the show is putting out their and their are people comparing Weiss shoving a weapon into her abused brothers face with harmless playing around with sticks. Abuse is not something we should ever trivialize, but the show does so thoughtlessly and the fans just eat it all up. 
CRWBY has proven time and time again that they cannot handle such heavy topics like abuse and systemic racism yet they try to write these things and when they inevitably fail they blame everything but their own unwillingness to do basic research into these heavy topics. 
The hypocrisy of the show has been painfully obvious since Qrow punched Oscar out in his anger towards Ozpin and treated that as morally correct and okay to do while also telling us Jacques slapping Weiss was horrible and wrong but then going back to insisting it was fine when Blake slapped Sun. Or how we’re supposed to view trust and keeping secrets. The issue isn’t the act of lying its weather the protagonists are doing the lying or being lied to that duels weather we should be angry about it or justifying it. Regardless of the fact that Ozpin did the exact same thing to RWBY as RWBY did to James, but one was punched for it, and the other was reassured that she’s doing the right thing. It’s not the action that’s happening that’s wrong but the character doing the action that is how we are supposed to judge weather something was good or bad and uh that is not how that works. The what was done is all that matters not the who did it. With this protagonist morality the show has however it has created a moral that says doing a bad thing to someone you don’t like is okay because they’re probably secretly bad anyways so its fine and that....a really dangerous mindset.
Personally I think these major issues started popping up all the way back in volume 4 with Blake slapping around Sun being brushed off as nothing and totally and completely fine. Back then though people where far more forgiving and willing to accept the flaws because of things like Monty passing and them switching to a new engine. And people still held onto the good faith the show had built up in previous volumes and where willing to give them another chance. Their is also the issue of at first, RT was a small company and thus they where able to get closer to their fans then in larger companies which made fans feel like CRWBY was their friends you know? 
The issue fans cannot accept is that CRWBY isn’t their friends. They don’t even know most of the fans and don’t want to. It’s okay to criticize the show, you’re not insulting a friend or something, you’re critiquing a tv show and the poor and harmful morals being portrayed. If no one tells you something is a problem, you’ll never learn. It’s okay to make mistakes we just want CRWBY to own up to their mistakes and to improve and do better but the FNDM just continues to dig their heels in and pretend everything is fine and perfect and attack anyone who dares to question their perfect show.
