Oh thank goodness. I was so scared I’d made you uncomfortable. Glad to know that’s not the case. Also currently getting ready to watch the latest episode of Blue Lock cause watching gay soccer players is the perfect way to distract myself from crying because of gay delinquents aka Tokyo Revengers 😌✨. I swear the number of edits I’ve saved to my phone these last two weeks is insane. You should totally pick it up again whenever you have the time (and ofc only if you want to) 👀. Izana brainrot has escalated to reading the fanfics under the character x reader tag. That’s when I know I’m down bad 💀💀💀. Anywho. You should absolutely catch up on Lore Olympus I just caught up yesterday and uhhhhh a lot has happened 👀. And everyone needs themselves a man like Hades like SIR IM- . Oh man I love yoo takes me back. I stopped reading it awhile ago cause I think it was being dragged out and I kinda lost the plot somewhere. I don’t like when the story keeps continuing when it’s just for the sake of it and it doesn’t work with the plot. There are very few exceptions to this. Tokyo Revengers obv being one of them cause I would seriously be so happy if it went on forever and I got to see what the daily lives of all my beloved characters were like. I have a love hate relationship with Ken Wakui 😤🤧😭. OH ALSO as sad as I am abt the ending I’m so excited for the second season in January (Black Dragons arc is my favorite). Have you seen the trailer? ALSO there was an announcement right after the release of the final chapter saying that Wakui was gonna be doing a special arc abt the Toman founders and I really hope it’s in the reset timeline with Takemitchy cause I need to see how him and Mikey did it all and just their relationship with everyone (adding childhood-friends trope to the number of reasons why this ship has everything). And it also included the announcement of Wakui saying he’s working on multiple spin-offs and I was like AFJBGFDJKHHHGGHGGG YES GIMME *ahem* also I haven’t read the Bajifuyu Letter from Baji Keisuke spin off yet but I was gonna wait until after the manga ended as a source of comfort yknow so I gotta do that eventually. EGGNOID MY DEAR COLD-BLOODED KING SIRENS LAMENTS LETS PLAY. I LOVE ALL OF THESE SO MUCH. Haven’t read them in a while tho 😅 (besides Lore Olympus atm). I recommend Brimstone and Roses, Unlovable Replacement, Midnight Poppy Land, SubZero, Down to Earth, and The Kiss Bet. They’re all on webtoons. OH and i heard that Nagi makes an appearance in the latest ep so I’m excited not cause I’m falling for him or anything ofc. How’s life? Good I hope? And I’m happy that my description was somewhat on point and that it didn’t make you uncomfortable. Oh and also love your sketches so much they look so good 🤩!!! Uh question. Just to double check. The constant asks aren’t a bother are they? I know you said you like interacting but I just wanna make sure it’s not annoying having to respond to constant asks from the same person all the time. If that makes sense? Anyways I hope you sleep well/wake up refreshed!! It’s night time here atm. As always take care of yourself! *sends virtual hugs*
- ✨ anon
Starry!!
I finished reading the latest chapters of the manga (and I'm amazed at the fact that I've managed to keep up with it so far; are we ever gonna get shirtless aiku and i wanna see him with the italian team)
my only motive in life atp (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
I love yoo does make me feel nostalgic; but yeah as much as I love the whole story, the plot did get dragged out. So like here's the thing, I've watched a lot of k dramas and some of them are really lengthy. Like whats wrong with secretary kim had a good plot and everything, so did suspicious partners but this new one I watched (the penthouse) it got dragged out for so long that I didn't even want to watch season 3; even if it was interesting i'm being pushed to watch hospital playlist even with let's play when Sam and Charles were being dragged with Marshall in the bg i... dropped it. No ill will intended against the author and their artwork; cause they are amazing, but i lose interest with complicated plots. me watching he is a psychometric
The coincidence! I was literally asking abt the black dragons today (wanted to know if Shinichiro is there or not and turns out he is!) I wanna see the whole thing with Mitsuya, Hakkai and Taiju - me having a tr brainrot and thinking if i should work on it or will people get annoyed with me ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾ I like manga omakes- they can even be turned into mini eps cause of it - esp with the trio and their pet shop business! (Me thinking of the moment when Baji's handwriting is so bad that Chifuyu had to show him how to write and teach him- he really thought wearing glasses would make him smart smh) and if i do read tr I'm gonna start uploading manga panels on my blog as well- so be prepared to be annoyed ig ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾
I'll definitely check out the webtoons you sent me (kiss the bet seems interesting and midnight poppy land has popped into my recs a couple of times). I have to watch the next ep of blue lock - curious to know if Nagi's voice is how I pictured it.
I'm doing alright! Working on wips and clearing them, studying, watching shows *sips coke* and listening to music; we hit another mini milestone - 1.2k (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و so I'm working on two fics; angst comfort
istg the way you guys might come at me for this ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ
I just wanted to do something fun on the blog hehe- responding to comments with art. It's not very well done, yea but i'm not used to drawing digitally nor anime that often since I sketch paintings and statues... but its just to good around with my followers and to let people know that i do read their comments (๑•͈ᴗ•͈)
Honestly? I don't get interaction on my blog apart from you, 💙 anon and a few more - and - I like talking to you; esp when you mentioned abt having consistency while having to talk to someone? cause that's how it should be- and i don't regret saying this but the number of times i have unfollowed moots cause of this (big author or not; I'm not gonna engage in conversations if i'm going one sided abt this). So now I just prefer to chat with my followers and anyone who wants to drop in my inbox. And no, I don't find you annoying bb; you're very fun to talk to and I look forward to your visits- no matter how many times! This is probably the most interaction I've received in my entire writing experience and actually being treated like a person on the other side of the screen rather than being asked to write a part two (after its already been discussed many times) or asking to be tagged without my work being interacted with- and by interaction i mean telling me and describing to me what you liked about the fic and all that yk. And there used to be some days when I had my askbox closed so this is a pleasant change from that
૮꒰ ˶• ༝ •˶꒱ა ♡
so yeah feel free to send as many asks as you want - i'd be happy to see them ( ˊᵕˋ )♡
*sending back warm hugs*

Just gonna write down my thoughts here:
So who saved Grogu from the jedi temple?
So far our options are the few jedi rumored to be alive after order 66. The only one I can think of that we haven’t yet seen the story of is Quinlan Vos. That could be cool but it would also imply Quinlan (or any other jedi that took Grogu) was eventually separated from him/ killed trying to protect him.
Oh, you know what? Sitting here thinking about all the jedi it CAN’T be, because they died in order 66, what if it was Shak’ti? I mean we still technically haven’t seen her die yet in canon! It would be cool to see her sneak out of the temple with baby yoda in her hands + she was a council member and most likely knew/ trained him.
Or, maybe it wasn’t a jedi at all. A clone perhaps? Oh maybe the bad batch! But what would that imply? It seems that the existence of this child is somewhat secret considering that we never saw him in the clone wars (IMAGINE THE OUTBREAK if we saw a baby Grogu at the temple in clone wars season 7 oml), but if palpatine somehow knew about him during the clone wars it could be he was captured directly from there and put under the “slave conditioning process”. That would be why the empire wants him again now. And that “dark spot” in his memories would be attributed to his time in captivity.
Well, it does seem likely that Grogu was in captivity as some point before the mando delivered him to Dr. Pershing but with they way Ahsoka said he was “rescued from the temple” it seems unlikely he was directly captured from there. So my last point is rocky. 
and Uhhhhh and i’m a bit worried that we’re not going to get the rebels sequel many fans were speculating about. Most fans that have read the canon thrawn books wanted to see Thrawn not in a villain role but as a part of the ascendancy and Ezra working with him while being a teacher to the force sensitive navigators. Right now, I’ve seen a lot of celebration from fans about the Heir to the Empire trilogy and relating Thrawn’s role to that because of his namedrop in this episode as the timeline. But I SINCERELY hope that Thrawn cuts ties to the empire because as expressed in the books/comics 1) he’s not a part of the because he believes in it, but rather because he believes that working with the empire is the best way to save his people from other threats and 2) because he would have most likely been killed by the emperor for disloyalty because of his actions a week before the battle at Lothal if Ezra has not zoomed them off. 
If he is the “master” of this lady that seems to still have imperial ties, I worry that the stuff from the books (WRITTEN BY TIMOTHY ZHAN FOR CANON BTW) are being ignored, much like Cobbs backstory and his already good relations with the tuskens.

Rwby Live Blog Part 1
hnnnng what if I live blogged my rwby rewatch It’s been like several years since I actually watched the show so I might get some stuff a little wrong heh, okay a lot wrong, I remember basically nothing. Starting with Volume 1, I plan to watch the first episode today and another episode every day until I catch up to the current volume, might take breaks if I have work to do, this is just a hobby and I need to prioritize other stuff before this.
Chapter 1: Ruby Rose Damn Red got that good music, I really like her design, it’s cool. So the ginger’s talking about dust, I think it’s kinda like gunpowder in it’s activation? Maybe it takes a spark to ignite whatever spell or something to activate? I really love this dust stuff so far, it seems really cool. OH FUUUUUUU, That huntress lady or whatever??? She has a staff thing and it just like, I bet it’s dust, but like, how does that work??? It started up a storm or something and it’s got point hail raining down??? That’s cool. The dark clouds are in a spirally thing that’s really cool. I also like her purple cloak but I don’t know why it’s all swirly at the ends, still cool. OKAY WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING. MAGIC???? Basically staff lady just used telekinesis or something by directing her wand and also the fire lady, gosh she’s hot, is using destructive fire magic or something, like it has weight to it which I can tell by how it slams into the ground. There’s no wand or anything though so like, maybe it’s like she has dust in her blood or something? And that’s how she can do magic??? That’d also make sense for wand lady, they got dust in their blood is my guess. Okay no I see more of this fire lady and she has glowing dress and that maybe means her clothes is a conduit for the dust magic. Yeah that makes sense. Oooo, so fire lady can deflect with her magic dust clothes too? Is she using the dust to hit the projectiles in the air before it hits or is she creating forcefields which deflect more widely??? Hmmmm. Oh my gosh red, that was adorable to ask your magic cop lady for an autograph, good for you girl, good for you. Hmmmm, so Red’s in trouble now for being a vigilante, is she even supposed to have a weapon like that like, girl looks 15, how can she have a blade gun??? So wand milf is talking about how she’s going to be sent home but then she’s implying that the punishment ain’t up to her, I wonder who’s in charge of wand milf then. Also what’s the structure for these “huntresses” Are they like, the defenders of the city and stuff? They hunt down criminals and those grim things which we haven’t seen yet, but how does the buisness work??? And what’s gonna happen to little Red? Ohhhh, we finding the big boss. Is it gonna be an even cooler milf? Tall vampire lady? Please be tall vampire lady. Damn. it’s an old guy with weird glasses, hasn’t brushed his hair from the looks of it. Also wtf is his fashion sense? Green on Green On Green on Green don’t look good hun, add a few muted colours in there somewhere, maybe a dark gray? Also, is he really wearing a stupid long baggy turtle neck with a brooch under a vest, under a long blazer??? Get it together man, let the milf do your fashion, or rwby or something, if you’re going to go for comfy, go for comfy, if you want business semi-casual, do that. But not whatever the hell you got, throw it in a fire already, I can’t stand to look at it. So Red’s name is Ruby Rose, got it. Wow she’s really going for that Red Thing, I wonder what her family is like if she got that sorta name. All I remember from this show is that ren and nora are my favorite’s, someone’s got an abusive family, there is ship discourse, lesbians, scary people and scary monsters, and the magic system’s fucked. Hmmmm, She got them gray eyes, I know that’s important but I got no idea how. YES! Thank you old man! I knew it was weird that she had a blade gun thing. Also, they be calling these schools weird, I think this is a private school thing, yeah that makes sense. YES GIRL! EAT ALL THEIR FOOD! LEAVE NOTHING BEHIND! Okay so her uncle’s one of her teachers, yeah I can feel the nepotism, so Red’s definitely not the one with the abusive family, now to find out which one it is, hmmmm. RED YOU ARE ADORABLE WITH THOSE LITTLE HAND THINGS ASJHFADLKJHS OH MY GOSH SHE’S RAMBLING, THAT’S PERFECT AHHHHHH Okay so there ARE police, damn, well I guess huntresses are cooler police but as we all know cops are pigs so hmmmm. I really really hope that there’s a corrupt system little red can destroy with her coolness but I’m already scared about how this system works.
Okay so back to the signal academy thing. Ruby has a sister who’s two years older than her, her uncle works at her current school, and she has a huge dangerous weapon on her at all times, uhhhhh, I fear the corruption a lot already, and what I’ve from what I’ve gotten so far, I’m not sure the creators are going to address the whole corruption thing for a while seeing as we haven’t met any good guys that aren’t fantasy cops so far. OKAY WHAT RUBY’S JUST RAMBLING IN FRONT OF HER FUTURE HEADMASTER SHE’S GOT SOME COURAGE. WHAT She’s actually going to Beacon two years early??? wtf >.> Red flags are already happening, this has to be about the silver eyes. Also, the framing of ozpin in the dark and ruby in the light *mwah* I can already tell that this guy has something wrong with him form that repeated framing style. The animation is moving around so much, bee sister’s thingies are just out there and her fashion blazer is wiggling, so weird. Golly, the digital art right next to the 3d modelling gives such a weird vibe. Also Roman Torchwick? Dang guy, that’s a sucky name. Rip my man’s whole vibe, he definitely got made fun of as a kid. Ahhhh, here’s the furries, so they are called “fauna” like, Just Animal??? Wow, Okay. I sense that there will be some pretty sucky metaphors made about racial inequality and stuff, ah well, I’m just here for the action and cool dust crap, oh and ren and nora, I wonder when they come in? Hmmm. “white fang” hmmm, I sense that’s a plot point, dang. “glenda goodwitch” wow they really selling to us that this is the good side huh. Still don’t like the points stuff for her cloak but it’s mostly because of how the art style makes it look.
Also have I made a comment yet about the sky ships? They are weird but cool. I like how they kinda look like sea creatures so far. Or just straight up helicopters but bigger. Both are cool.
So vomit boy is def a main character, wonder how that’ll go.
HOLY HELL THE OP IS SO GOOD! :D well, that’s all I have for y’all today, I hope tomorrow I don’t spend two hours like I did today just watch one episode but who knows? Maybe it’ll take three hours for the next episode. (I hope not, 2 hours is enough for me)

Pls give us the AtLA rant, I have a mighty need!
askjskjsdkjdskj i copy and pasted my rant from last night bc imo the raw energy of “i am genuinely shocked and angry (in a good way)” is something i cannot recreate right now
so here is the rant i went on in my groupchat + the secret side conversation i had in DMs bc, in my 3 person gc, 2 of us are watching it for the first time and i already knew some stuff going in so i didn’t want to spoil
it’s all under the cut bc it’s long as fuck (like almost 2k words if not more) 
but basically i go into my own type of avatar-state while talking abt zuko!!!!
(I HAVEN’T STARTED BOOK 3 YET, PLEASE NO SPOILERS)
groupchat:
but i just finished book 2 and it took a completely different turn from what i thought it was going to like i am actually in shock and have officially reached my point of "zuko what the actual fuck" because the choice to do good was right there after everything he and iroh went through and after all that he saw and letting aang go multiple times and he was starting to be happy in this new life and saw that he and iroh could be free and he still went back to azula for his pride and honor, turning against aang and katara after he and katara could have finally reached a moment of understanding
but like what the fuck i am more mad at s2 zuko than i was at s1 zuko bc, in season 1, the avatar and his honor was the only thing he thought about, but in s2, he met people who had their lives ruined by the fire nation!! and he worked with them!!!! iroh was showing him what it was like to live completely free, doing what he wants!!!! and he was starting to understand!!!!! but im so pissed and so fucking shocked bc, this entire fucking time, i was like "oh yeah the end of s2 is going to be when zuko joins, right? bc i mean book 3 is fire, so zuko has to teach him fire bending" but no, he willingly chose to keep pursuing the avatar after fucking everything he has seen, after knowing how people were affected by the fire nation, after everything iroh did for him
and he knows what he did!! he knows!!!!! he told azula that he betrayed iroh!!!!!!! he fucking knows
when iroh showed up to fight both him and azula, i was fucking losing it bc iroh's love has been so unconditional for zuko, he supported zuko through everything and even helped him try to capture the avatar at times, but that was the final straw
zuko willingly walked into world domination. he doesn't even fucking trust azula! he never has! but she brought up his pride and honor, and she's powerful as all hell, and he sided with her! after everything!
i really thought he was learning that his quest for the avatar was fruitless! it's not going to bring him happiness! his life in the fire nation will never return to normal
aang has saved his life so many god damn times, him and katara were reaching a point of understanding! they fucking talked about how the fire nation took both of their mothers
and i'm so floored bc this was all willing
when zuko was exiled, he had no choice! it was either find the avatar or have no home. but he was finding a home! he finally seemed so happy with iroh! it really seemed like iroh's teachings were getting through to him! that he was learning what he really wanted (freedom)! but he still went back to the fire nation except this time he chose to. he looked at the people he was starting to understand, at the man who has been a better father than ozai ever could, and willingly chose to turn away for the sake of pillaging and conquering and "honor" in a family that doesn't care about him
at first, i was like "this has to be a trick, right? he's fighting them now so that he can backstab azula later, right?"
but when katara said to him "i thought you changed!" and he said "i have" i was fucking besides myself
im so angry but im also fucking exhilirated bc this i did not expect
i would've put so much money on there being a meaningful moment of zuko stepping up alongside aang
like, i was so sure this would happen
i was convinced
but holy shit
and fucking!!! zuko knows what iroh went through at ba sing se with the loss of his son (and probably the realization that what the fire nation was doing was fucked up) and zuko still turned against iroh
after everything iroh did for him! iroh was the only person who stood by zuko's side during everything. he pleaded zuko's case over and over, he seeked out the gaang bc he needed their help and he was so sure that zuko would make the right decision!!! he saw zuko let the avatar go before, but when zuko was faced w/ azula's assistance and the avatar right there, he just went back to his old ways except worse bc this is willing
and like
am i discounting the manipulations of azula and ozai? no!!!
that definitely had a hand in it, bc azula has been dangling honor and ozai's love in front of zuko the entire time
but i really thought that the end of s2 would be when zuko sees past all of that
except he turned back to the family that doesn't even love him, betraying the only person who truly cared for him and loved him unconditionally and wanted the best for him, and now he has a direct hand in the collapse of ba sing se and world domination
like okay let it be known that this is some of the best writing ive seen and im fucking obsessed and im living for this and it's so fucking good so my anger is fueled by excitement and shock
and also i fucking love negative character development
like. i love zuko. and literally i think that's part of this too bc i was so sure that he was going to make the right decision
and instead i had to face the dawning realization that he wasn't
and now he and azula are teaming up to end the earth kingdom
like i thought i knew where this was gonna go and now i'm genuinely lost (in a good way)
and like i haven't even touched upon aang's chakra being locked bc he went back to katara
(also don't even get me started on the painful irony of iroh telling aang that sometimes it's better to choose love and friendship over power)
(like really don't get me started because i'm about to combust)
after everything iroh did for zuko!!!
after the gaang has saved his life!!!!!!!
and the best thing is, it was shocking but still not out of character
that's the beautiful thing
this was always an option for zuko
it's the point of the crossroads!!! you can go either way!!!!!!!
i just thought he was gonna go...................... the other way
and like literally the fact that he sided with azula after obviously not liking her basically his entire life (or at least his adolescence) is so fucking telling for how he made this decision bc. unless there's some behind the scenes stuff, he saw the avatar and his pride and his honor so clearly, and he saw how powerful azula was becoming, and decided that he would still take it even in the face of azula's manipulations and violence
if that makes sense
if you can't tell, i'm kinda reeling right now
like, apparently zuko wants his honor/power so badly that he'll side with azula!!!
after they spent an entire season fighting her
but also....... azula finally gave him that option of working together. before, it was always azula vs. zuko
now, though, azula was offering a world dominating olive branch
so now like im thinking....... what if that happened earlier? would zuko always have turned? or is it just because everything he ever wanted was so close to him?
and it's wonderful bc it's still so in-character. like, even siding with azula, it's not bc he suddenly cares for his sister or whatever, but it's because he chose honor/pride/the fire nation over freedom/giving up what he always wanted. i don't think he was choosing azula, he was choosing his pre-written destiny over making his own
god is any of this making sense i am literally so fucking shocked
i literally need like 3 episodes solely on iroh at this point bc you know what probably fucking sucks??? losing his first son to the war in ba sing se, and then losing his nephew (who he saw as another son) to starting war in ba sing se
like? that has to feel like a fucking slap in the face ten times over
especially bc iroh left the fire nation with zuko (and probably for zuko), most likely giving up his full title there
and like? the fighting sequences are so cool but it was so fucking heartbreaking to hear iroh tell aang "you go on ahead! i will hold off both of them!" because like. iroh can't wait any longer! he thinks (and knows) that zuko is making the wrong choice, but he can't wait any longer! he can't stand by while zuko dominates an entire city and say "oh, he's really complicated, he's going through something"! because zuko did go through it and he came out of it and he still made that choice! iroh probably feels like all his patience, all his efforts, all his teachings and love, went to fucking waste! because it didn't get him anywhere!
like, iroh probably still loves zuko but he probably feels so fucking betrayed and hurt and disappointed because, after seeing zuko let the avatar go before and seeming so happy, he probably thought that zuko was changing for the better! and now, he has to fight his niece AND his nephew! this no longer is zuko insulting some other general or his crew that iroh can fix by explaining what happened w/ ozai and how zuko is very conflicted! this is a situation that zuko willingly walked in, even after hearing and knowing all of iroh's teachings!
anyways! poetic cinema
like also pls dont think im ignoring everything else in the episode, like aang's chakra being locked was fucking wild and that entire episode was so good, with the fight sequences and everything abt azula, and toph’s metal bending, just forgive me bc im a little uhhhhh distracted by a twist that i genuinely did not expect
i feel bad for how focused i am right now on zuko but also how can i not be bc that feels so connected to literally everything else
also tho on a brighter note, true serotonin was when appa finally returned :')
it's so wonderful that appa broke out by himself. he did it all on his own! no one else was there. at all :)
(im kidding that was actually a very important moment in zuko's character)
(or at least i thought it was going to be)
(well actually it still is, but it's come to the question of "you can always say what you're going to do in a situation, but what happens when you're actually faced with it?”)
DMs:
i know that zuko gets redeemed, right? like i know, in the end, they will all team up
but the fact that it didn't happen now
holy shit
like.......... a whiiiiiiile ago on tumblr, i saw a post that was like "zuko has a great redemption but he needed to work for it bc he did awful things" and like? tbh yeah i got that s1 zuko was the antag and he did shitty things but like...................... this feels so much more poignant
like zuko literally has a direct hand now in the collapse of the earth kingdom
literally not to be dramatic but this is like. taz-reveal levels of shocked right now.
i thought i knew the zuko arc
bc i know he gets redeemed!!
so, after watching this season, i was thinking "oh okay it's gonna be this season! makes sense!"
but.... deep down
deep down..............
a part of me was kinda like "so is season 1 zuko....... it? is that the end of his antagonisms? is season 2 meant to be his redemption? i dig it, but i thought it would be more...................... dramatic"
well!
got what i wished for!
and i am in the best kinds of hell
like i almost feel bad bc so much other stuff happened in the finale (like, for example, aang's chakra being locked, which i screamed at, it was so good) but like. i genuinely did not expect this.
like. holy fuck.
like, now i really understand why people say that zuko needed to really work for his redemption bc he and azula are tag teaming the end of the earth kingdom

Vocal - Arthur Fleck x Female Reader (NSFW)
Tumblr media
After the Murray Franklin Show Incident, you decide you need to take some time away from Arthur for a bit. While you are away, you give him a call from the hotel you're staying at and you begin to realize just how much you really miss him.
As it turns out, this became a part of a series I plan on posting soon. However, due to the number of people wanting to read this particular part, I decided to upload it separately. The beginning summarizes what's happened up until that point which will be further explained once I upload the other chapters.
Until then, enjoy this little nugget of writing. 😊
You still couldn't believe the man you loved could do such a thing. You had witnessed it with your own eyes that night when, dressed as a clown you knew all too well, he shot a man point blank live on television.
Right after that incident, he somehow made his way back home to you, but you knew things had changed. He seemed to behave as if he didn't do anything wrong, but you knew better.
As far as you were concerned, the man you had loved for the past few months was gone and replaced by someone who had eerily looked just like him, but it wasn't him.
As much as you wanted to get to the bottom of why he did what he did, you knew for the time being that you couldn't stay here with him. Although he reassured you that he still loved you dearly like the man you once knew, you still feared for your safety, unsure if perhaps you would be his next victim if you just so happened to say or do the wrong thing to him.
Despite him reassuring you of his feelings for you, a part of you still didn't feel safe being around him right now. In order to decide what your next move would be, you made the difficult decision in telling him that you needed time away from him for a bit.
You knew he wouldn't take this well.
You were his whole world; his whole life. He couldn't imagine a world without you in it. But judging by his recent actions and after finally coming clean live on air that he was the one who killed those three Wallstreet men on the subway that night, he understood why you had to leave.
And because he loved you more than anything, he wanted to give you the space you needed. He knew you were feeling differently towards him. He knew this could potentially end your relationship with him.
And a part of him seemed okay with that.
For the time being at least.
After he was seen spotted stalking you the following day at work, even though you left him a note begging him not to do so, you decided to go along with the next part of your plan.
Despite him begging you not to do it, after work that day, you decided you needed to spend a few days away from him at a hotel. You hoped that staying at a hotel might be just the thing to help clear your thoughts and help you decide whether or not you should leave him or not.
However, because you had grown so attached to Arthur these past few months of knowing him, you soon began to worry about him. During work that whole day, you began to have anxiety ridden thoughts about what Arthur could possibly be doing at that very second now that you were away.
Considering he was still unemployed after getting fired from his job, you knew he was still at his apartment, alone and wrestling with his own personal demons.
Because of this worry, you quickly called him as soon as you checked into the hotel after leaving work that day. After a brief conversation and knowing he was okay for the time being, you promised him you would call him back later that night just before you went to bed.
A few hours later, you called him back after changing into your pajamas and crawling under the sheets.
He had been watching the news and hearing some more news coverage about his episode on the Murray show the night before. At that moment, he heard the phone ring and immediately ran over to it.
"Y/n?" He asked.
"Hi baby." You smiled as soon as you heard his voice.
He breathed a heavy sigh and leaned against the counter where the phone was.
"Are you okay?” You asked in a soft voice.
“Mmhmm... just... missing you. That’s all.” He mumbled over the phone.
“I know... But... I’ll come home tomorrow. I promise.” Although you had reassured him of this earlier when you called, he still felt a strong sense of relief after hearing you say that again. 
“Listen, ummm... I'm gonna get ready for bed soon."
"Oh..." He sounded almost disappointed hearing this.
"Although... Who knows if either one of us will be able to sleep tonight..."
"Yeah..." You heard him mumble under his breath. You just knew he wouldn't be sleeping tonight for sure.
"Ummm... Listen... I uhhhhh.... I was thinking maybe... We could try something to help us get some sleep."
"Like what?"
"I don't know. Talk?"
He sighed. "I'd rather just hear you talk, if I'm being honest. I'm not much in a talking mood right now." He took a drag of his current cigarette.
"That's too bad. Because... Well... I was thinking... This might be one of the only times we could do this. Talking on the phone I mean."
"Yeah..."
"And... I don't know. I just got to thinking about you and... How much I still love you and how... I wanna be able to show you how much I love you once I get home..."
"That's sweet..." His voice began soft as a warm sensation filled his chest.
"Yeah... But the thing is... What I wanted to do.... I don't know if you'll feel comfortable with it or not."
"What?"
"Ummm....." You hesitated. You weren't sure exactly how to bring up this next bit, so you just went for it, hoping he would be okay with it.
"I know we... Haven't really... Gotten... You know... Intimate yet. And I know we talked about it but... I don't know. Forget it."
"No, no. Tell me."
"I just think... Maybe we should try something. Right now."
"Like what?"
"Well... We can't physically be with each other right now and... I... Wanna make sure you're comfortable with me when we finally do this so... Maybe we should... Practice a little?"
He felt his eyes get a little big.
"Are you saying right now? Over the phone?"
"Yeah... I know you... You know... You're intimate by yourself. And so am I." As soon as he heard this, he slowly ran his hand down his chest and just over the front of his pants.
"I am. Sometimes."
"Yeah. And... It feels good doesn't it?"
"It does. Except... "
"Except what?"
"Except... I feel... Wrong for doing it sometimes."
"Why?"
"B-because I... I... Think about you. A lot. When I'm doing it." He covered his eyes in embarrassment, feeling his face get hot as well.
"Arthur... You shouldn't feel bad about doing that. It's completely normal. Can I tell you something?"
"Mmhmm."
"Lately when I've done it. Especially in the shower... I've thought about you too."
He felt himself harden in his pants after hearing you say this. You thought about him?
"Really..? What uhhh... What do you think about?"
"I was gonna ask you the same thing. ....Are you comfortable?"
He took another long drag of cigarette.
"I am now."
"Good." You breathed a heavy sigh and looked down at your pajama top.
"I'm... laying in bed right now. Under the covers. Wishing you were here with me right now."
"I... I am." His voice got lower. This made you shut your eyes for a second, soaking in that amazing sound.
You took a deep breath, your heart pounding in your chest as you thought about what to say to him next.
"I want you to... Put your arm around me. And... Start running your hand.. through my hair... And down my face... Gently..."
"Okay..." He softly closed his eyes. You imagined him touching you like you said as you listened to his gentle breathing over the phone.
"I always loved the way your hands feel... They're soft but... There still a... Roughness to them." You let out a soft, muffled moan. 
"Arthur... Kiss me..."
You pictured him gently placing his lips against yours.
As soon as he heard that soft moan escape your lips, he felt himself harden even more.
Suddenly, you heard a soft moan coming from him over the phone.
"Now what..." He whispered.
"Now... Run your hand... Down my face... And... Down my neck..." You sighed.
"And start... unbuttoning my pajama top..."
"Okay..." He whispered.
You started undoing your own pajama shirt until you unbuttoned it all the way down.
"Tell me what to do next..." He whispered.
"I know you... Haven't seen what I look like yet..."
"No..."
"It's okay. You can look..." You slowly pushed away one side of your pajama shirt, exposing one of your breasts and one half of your torso to the cool air of the hotel room.
"Can you see me...?" You asked.
"Y-yes...."
"How do I look...?" Your fingertips gently grazed down your torso, brushing your skin.
"You're... You're beautiful... So beautiful...Your skin looks so soft..."
"I am soft... Touch me Arthur..."
You reached down and took your breast in your hand and began massaging it in around in slow circles.
"Mmm... Your hand, Arthur... It feels so good..."
You heard a quiet little whimper on the phone.
"Now... You can... Take your fingers... And... Gently caress my breast... And my nipple... Mmmmm....." You moaned.
You heard him whimper over the phone once again.
"I need to kiss you there..."
"Ahh.... Do it...." You moaned.
You pictured him lowering his head down and wrapping his mouth around the top part of your breast, sucking the skin lightly before pulling away and moving down to your nipple.
"Mmm... Arthur... Use your tongue... Against... My nipple...."
"Mmm..." He held back a moan of his own by biting his bottom lip.
You pictured him using the tip of his tongue to gently flick your nipple before taking your entire breast into his mouth. You squeezed and caressed your own breast and nipple while doing this, feeling yourself start to get wet.
"Mmmm Arthur.... I.... I have to tell you something..."
"...what?" He sounded tired already.
"I'm... Y-you're making me... So wet...."
He couldn't take it anymore. With a loud breath of air breathing into the phone, he quickly undid his pants and pulled down his underwear so he could pull his cock out in front of him.
You heard him making small sounds and grunts and he struggled to do this one handed but you knew what he did just by the sounds he was making.
"Arthur...?" You asked.
"Yeah...?"
"D-did you...?"
He got quiet for a second. He thought he did something wrong.
"I-I’m sorry. W-was I supposed to..." He looked down with himself still in his hand, that feeling of embarrassment coming back.
"Hey... It's okay. Don't apologize. It's like I said earlier. You shouldn't feel embarrassed for doing this..." You couldn't hide your grin anymore.
"I..." You heard him whisper. "Arthur... I need to ask you one more thing before we keep going though."
"Anything."
"Are you okay with... me talking to you like this?"
You heard him hold back a laugh.
"Are you kidding? I've... I've never heard you talk like this before. But... I like it..." He looked down again. You could have sworn you heard him smile over the phone.
"Good. Now... it's your turn. Tell me what you're doing right now..."
He swallowed hard, nervous that he would say the wrong thing. "I'm... Still here... By the phone... I'm... Leaning against the counter.. and..." He stopped for a second, wondering if he should say his next sentence.
"Arthur..." You whispered. "It's okay. You can tell me..."
He breathed a heavy sigh, but he knew he had to tell you this.
"God... I'm so hard right now."
Your smile grew as your mouth opened in amazement after hearing him say that. You always knew he had that confidence inside of him this whole time.
He felt a little uneasy telling you this, unsure of what your reaction would be. He thought maybe he said the wrong thing, seeing as how you didn't respond right away. He was so close to apologizing one more time. That is, until he heard your voice again.
"You are?" You sounded so happy to hear that.
"I... Yeah...?" His voice got soft again.
"Arthur... This is exactly what I want you to tell me. I want you to be able to... Be comfortable around me. Especially when it comes to this..."
"I am comfortable. I always have been...."
"Good... Now... I'm curious..." You lightly ran your fingertips up and down your torso.
"You said... You think about me sometimes?"
"Mmhmm..." On the other end of the phone, he began gently running his hand up and down his length.
"What do you think about?" You asked.
You heard him hold back a laugh. "So many things... So many things I... Want to happen in real life..."
"Really? Well... Maybe... If you tell me... We could make those real..."
He bit his lip after hearing you say that.
"Okay... I... I always picture seeing you here at home. Everyday when I come home from work. I always have such a shitty day... But... I see you in the kitchen. You always have a smile on your face whenever I walk in the door... And you come over and give me a big kiss on my lips..."
"Aww..." You loved how innocent his fantasy sounded. And you just knew when you saw him again that you would make this fantasy a reality soon.
"Yeah... But then I tell you... I had a terrible day... And... You wanna make that all go away..."
"I do..."
"So... You walk me over to the couch... Sit me down..." He couldn't help but hold back a smile at the next sentence. "Sometimes I'm still dressed up like Carnival, but you don't care..."
You smiled back.
"I always take that wig off and throw it across the room and... You come over and... Sit down next to me... And...." You heard him breathe a heavy sigh.
"You take your hand... And you start rubbing my thigh... Up.. and down... Next thing I know... You're unbuttoning my shirt... And you're leaving kisses all over my neck... And down my collarbone... And.... Down my chest..." You could hear his shallow breathing now.
"I'd love to do that to you, Arthur... I love your body so much... It's so... Beautiful..."
"....I am..?" He whispered back.
"Mmmhmm... I always thought you were. Now.. Keep going..."
He felt himself begin to blush as he continued talking."Okay... it's not long until... You... Make it down to my pants... And... Oh god..." He ran his hand up and down his length again.
"Arthur..."
"Y-yeah...?" He let go of his cock and waited to hear what you had to say.
"Do you still have your clothes on?"
"Y-yeah...?"
"Are you... wearing a buttoned up shirt?"
"Yeah..."
"I want you to unbutton it..." You heard him swallow hard over the phone as he held the phone against his shoulder, in order to unbutton his shirt. All you could hear was his gentle breathing into the phone as he did that.
"Does that feel better?" You asked.
"Much better..."
"Good... Now... Keep going. Keep talking..."
"Okay... well..." He started to run his hand up his chest and his fingertip gently ran across one of his nipples.
"You unbutton my pants... Unzip them and... God your hand is so warm... You started... Rubbing outside of my underwear... I didn't think I would last very long.... But then... You reach in... Fuck... Your hand is so warm..." He breathed.
"Mmmm.... Arthur... God you feel so big..."
He held back a smile of his own after hearing you say that.
"I don't know if... I can take all of that..."
"Yes you can, baby..." His voice got deep again. "I'll be gentle... I...." He stopped for a second.
"I need to be inside of you..."
"You will, baby... You will..." You gently squeezed your other breast and ran your hand down your torso again.
Arthur continued to slowly run his hand up and down his length in slow, soft motions, not fully grasping himself just yet.
"But first... I wanna make you feel good..."
He bit his lip again. "I do feel good, baby... You always make me feel good..." He whispered into the phone.
You bit your lip too. "Mmmm.... God.... I just... I need..."
"Tell me what you need..." He whispered in your ear.
"I need... That... Big cock in my mouth..." You whined.
He grinned again and immediately felt a feeling of confidence come over him.
"That's my girl..."
You pictured yourself pulling his cock out from his underwear and gripping it firmly in your hand.
"Oh god... Its so big..." You moaned. You loved being able to build up his confidence, even if it was like this.
"I know... Now... I'm gonna... Put my hand behind your head and... I want you to..." He couldn't finish his sentence. Luckily, you finished for him.
"I'm gonna... Run the tip of my tongue around the tip of it. And... My hand... Is gonna move up and down... Slowly up and down your cock..."
Hearing you use such vulgar language made him want to try it too. So instead of describing the scene anymore, he started talking directly to you.
"Your mouth feels so good, baby... Fuck..."
"Mmmm....." You brought two fingers into your mouth and began to suck on them, helping you fantasize about Arthur even more.
"You taste so good, Arthur..." You made sure he could hear the sounds of you sucking on your fingers. The amount of saliva you were using made for the wettest, sloppiest noises.
“You’re such a good girl Y/n... Taking me into your whole mouth like this...”
“Mmmm....” You continued sucking on your fingers a bit more.
“Oh god...” He moaned over the phone.
“What, baby?”
“I... I feel like...”
“Are you gonna cum for me...?”
“Yeah but.. I.. I wanna...” He couldn’t finish his sentence.
“What? Tell me...”
“I... I wanna be inside of you...”
“Okay..” You laid back on the bed some more and stared up at the ceiling. 
“I’m glad you said that. Because guess what?”
“What?”
“I’m soooo wet right now, baby. I need to touch myself right now... I wanna picture what you feel like inside of me...”
You made yourself comfortable by removing your pajama pants and finally your underwear.
“Arthur...”
“Hmm..?”
“Do you wanna make me feel good?”
“Yes... More than anything...”
“Good... Because... I already took my panties off and... I’m soaking wet.”
“...fuck...” You just barely heard him over the phone. He almost lost it right then and there.
“C’mere... I want you to... Start.. Kissing me down my neck... And down my chest...”
You heard a soft moan come out of him.
“Down my stomach and..” You breathed a sigh. “I want you to... Spread my legs apart...”
“I did...” He breathed. “God you are wet...”
“I know... This is all because of you, baby... All because of you...” He slowly closed his eyes and ran his hand down his length once again. He couldn’t believe you were really saying this to him.
“Okay... I want you to...”
“Shhh...” You heard him interrupt. “Just relax, baby... I got this...”
You were surprised to hear him say this. You were surprised by a lot of things he had been saying. Was this still the Arthur that you knew?
“I’m gonna rub my fingers against you.. Up.. And down...”
Just as he said that, you reached down and mimicked that exact action.
“So... Is this what you do in the shower? When you’re thinking of me?”
You bit your lip in response. “Mmmhmm...”
“What else do you picture me doing?” His voice suddenly got deep again.
“I... I see you... Using your mouth too...” You could picture him using his tongue to flick against your folds, soaking up all the wetness.
“Oh god... You taste so good...” He had gotten the idea from you to start sucking on his own fingers to make more sounds over the phone.
“Mmmm... Arthur.... I can’t wait anymore... I... I need you inside of me already...”
A devious smile came over his face as soon as you said that. Before he could prepare himself for what was to come, he immediately remembered something he tried out not too long ago during one of his other sessions by himself.
He would stand in front of a counter or the dresser in the bedroom, rest his hand against as he gripped onto his length, then he would thrust forward into his gripped hand, mimicking what he thought it would feel like to be inside of you.
He turned towards the counter behind him and began positioning himself.
“I’m ready baby...” He whispered. He pictured himself slowly inching inside of you with just the tip before pulling out.
“I’m going slow... okay...?”
“Okay...” You breathed.
“Just the tip for right now...”
“Jesus...” You whispered.
“What? Are you alright?” All of a sudden, he became panicked. Did he hurt you? He needed to know.
“Yeah... but.. Its just... Even the tip feels really big...” 
He couldn’t help but smile.
“Its okay baby... I’m okay... I can handle it...”
“If I hurt you.. Just tell me...” He whispered. 
“Okay...”
“Okay.. Just a little more...” He looked down and with his other hand, gently positioned himself against his clenched hand once more.
He heard you moan as he slowly pushed himself into his closed hand again. 
“Almost there...” He gently pushed the rest of himself into his hand until his hand rested against his pelvis.
“There...” He breathed. “I’m inside of you...”
“Wow...” You breathed. “You... You feel so good... Just... Here... Inside of me...”
“I know.. You’re so warm...”
There was a brief silence until one of you spoke again.
“Arthur... Are you okay?”
He had closed his eyes and was picturing you around him, warm and wet. He didn’t wanna move at all because he knew you weren’t really here with him.
“Y-yeah...”
“If you want, we can stop...” You reassured him.
“No... I just... I miss you so much...”
You felt your heart break a little.
“I miss you too...”
“...I wanna keep going.”
You nodded back. “Okay..”
He slowly pulled himself out from his hand then quickly thrust forward again, letting out a loud moan.
“...fuck...!”
“Is it too much, baby?” You asked.
“No... Its just right... I’ve wanted this for so long... To.. feel you like this...” He panted.
“Good...” You sighed again. “Make love to me Arthur...”
He didn’t miss a beat. He quickly pulled out of his hand and thrust back in again. Meanwhile, you were rubbing yourself and alternating between shoving your own fingers inside of yourself, trying to picture him thrusting inside of you.
“Oh god yes... Mmmmm...!” You bit your lip. “Mmmm... Fuck me baby... God.. You’re so good....” 
“Y/n...” He moaned. “I’m... I’m not gonna... Last... Very long...”
“Its okay... Ahhh... Cum inside of me... Please...” You begged.
With a few more thrusts, he thrust one more time and spilled all over the counter and his hand with a loud moan. You felt your wall clench around you as you followed shortly afterward.
You both began to catch your breaths for a bit, trying to come down from your high.
“I... I can’t believe we just did that...” He breathed into the phone.
“I know...” You smiled back. “Felt good, didn’t it?”
“Mmmhmm...”
You continued to hear him breathe into the phone as he leaned against the counter.
“...My heart’s beating so fast...”
“I know... Mine too. And just think.. That was just us... TALKING to each other.” You said as you held back a laugh.
“Fuck... you’re gonna kill me...” He said as he held back a laugh as well.
You let him go get cleaned up as you waited by the phone for him.
“Okay, I’m back.” 
“Hey...” You said in a soft voice.
He sighed. “...That was amazing... Thank you, sweetheart...”
“You’re welcome... It was, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah...”
“Hey...”
“Hmmm...?”
“...I love you.” You whispered.
He felt a sharp sting in his heart as soon as you said that.
“Y-you do..?”
“Yeah. Even after all of this. I still do.”
You both continued to talk a bit over the phone until you noticed how late it started to get. You looked over at the clock on the dresser and noticed just how long you had been talking to Arthur.
“Baby, its getting late. I gotta go.”
“No...” He whined. “Don’t go.”
“I have to, baby. I’m sorry. But... I’m keeping my promise. I’m coming home to you tomorrow.”
“Okay... I’ll...” He looked over at the empty bed in the bedroom. “I’ll keep your side of the bed warm for you.”
You felt a smile come over your face. “You’re so sweet, Arthur... I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Okay. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“I love you.”
“I love you too, Y/n...”

Tag 10 people you want to know more/catch up with.
Thank you for the tag, @prismatic-cannon. Always fun to do one of these! And I like your song choice :D
Favourite colour(s): Green, teal, mint (okay those two are basically green-ish), that blue which they call “petrol” in the UK, and various shades of purple.
Last song: I’ve been back on my folk/power metal bullshit this fall and re-listening to favourite albums from my late high school/early university years. The Dance of Victory by Eluveitie was the song most recently played on my old iPod which is hooked up to my car stereo system. Listened to it last night while coming back from a site visit, as you do.
Last Movie: Oh lord, I watch movies so infrequently that I don’t even remember... It was definitely one of the ones I watched at the cottage this year. Uhhhhh, I think it might have been The Castle of Cagliostro. Which I really enjoyed and am now looking forward to watching the newest Lupin film when the English release comes out. I know, I know, I prefer subs too but my partner doesn’t really like watching subbed films and I almost only ever bother watching a film with him... 
Or it might have been A Mighty Wind which was painful but funny. If you’ve ever seen any Christopher Guest films, you’ll know what I’m talking about. He’s the master of cringe, secondhand awkwardness comedy. I think the one I enjoyed most and would recommend to someone who hasn’t seen his stuff would probably be the one about dog shows, Best in Show, or maybe the one about community theatre, Waiting for Guffman. 
Currently reading: Does re-reading some of my own fics count? XD
Really though, outside of technical stuff for work I haven’t been reading much lately. I did read an excellent sci-fi short story recently, called “Curo the Filthmonger” by J. Marshall Freeman. I can’t find an online copy, unfortunately (I have it in zine form from my local LGBTQ+ bookstore -- which is sadly now closing due to COVID), so no link. I was also thinking of tackling some of the many comic ebooks I’ve collected over the years via kickstarters and whatnot, and then left sitting untouched in a folder on my computer. Might start with Yes, Roya, because I know it recently got a colour edition, but I’d like to read my original black and white copy first. 
Currently watching: Nothing, actually. I just finished watching two things and have yet to start anything else in earnest. Most recently in television, I watched the final episode of the first season of Star Trek: Lower Decks which, as far as I’m concerned, is the best Trek series to come out since DS9. Hilarious and clever writing combined with solid animation and excellent voice acting by the ridiculously loveable cast. Each of them is more relatable over the course of only 8 half hour episodes than a single character in Discovery ever has been in two seasons... 
The other thing I watched recently was every currently available episode of a YouTube animated series about @dingodoodles‘s “Fools’ Gold” D&D campaign, which is helpfully collected in a playlist. I have FAR TOO MANY FEELS now, especially about her sorcerer monkey, Sips, and his best friend, Sneeze. It lures you in with the funny jokes and then RIPS YOUR HEART OUT AND STOMPS ON IT. The cliffhangers she does are as addictive as the best fanfiction on the internet, and her animation is an absolute delight. I laugh out loud every single episode. There are only 16 of them for the moment, and the longest one is less than 16 minutes, so the story is very bingeable. While my own D&D group is on a short hiatus between modules I am living vicariously through other people’s campaign stories, and this one is worthy of a Peter Jackson-esque epic movie series. Also now that I’ve discovered she has a tumblr I’m almost certainly going to fall deeper into this hole.
Sweet, spicy or savory?: Sweet tooth almost always wins out for me. Savoury, especially the salty aspect of it, does sometimes become a craving but not as often.
Tea or Coffee: Tea. Always tea. All different kinds. I’m on my fifth cup of the day right now. 
As for tagging folks, where’re my mutuals (who I haven’t seen tagged yet) at? Feel free to do this or ignore it, as you please: @pourpasserlamelancholie @royalphantom @himitsumi @killapunk @aprindea @sparkly-things

Rules:
Pick 5 TV shows, then answer the following questions. Tag 10 (or however many) people.
I was tagged by my dear @princess-of-france​ – loved your answers, Hal, and thank you!
1. The Terror (surprising no one) 2. Black Sails (haven’t finished yet but we’re in that age of sail mood) 3. TURN: Washington’s Spies (AMC history show hours) 4. The Borgias (okay we have no shame about history shows today) 5. HBO Rome (hey, why the hell not; all history it is)
Who is your favorite character in 2? I’m very partial to Thomas Hamilton, partly because, even though I haven’t finished the show, I do know where it’s going thanks to tumblr. Also, gotta love a man with a vision of a classical res publica. Also (part 2), who else can make Marcus Aurelius so sexy? (I swear I do like this show for more than just its classical reception.) Others on the favorite character list so far are Anne Bonny and Flint himself – he’s so gosh darned fun to watch; Toby Stephens is a gift of an actor.
Who is your least favorite character in 1? I mean, there’s no character in The Terror who doesn’t fulfill an important narrative role. But just because, (for example) Hickey is interesting and complex and well-written doesn’t mean I like him. I suppose, though, the character I find most repellent would be Des Voeux. Again, he’s narratively necessary and yet deeply emotionally distasteful. I’m not a villains person.
What is your favorite episode of 4? I’m also not finished with this one, so my favorite episode out of just the first two seasons... it’s very hard to choose, but “The Beautiful Deception” (02x03) is particularly stellar.
What is your favorite season of 5? Well, the first season is vastly better paced than the second season (a fun side-effect of a show that thought it was going to have a few more seasons than it actually received), but the second season has “These Being the Words of Marcus Tullius Cicero,” (02x03) which, tragically, has been vitally important to my honest-to-god career. So uhhh this is a toss-up.
Who is your favorite couple in 3? Favorite canon couple would be our darling tragic André/Peggy. Favorite non-canon couple would be the irrepressible boys, Ben/Caleb.  
Who is your favorite couple in 2? Hhhhhh so yeah again, I started this show with a fair amount of fore-knowledge and Flint/Hamilton basically ticks all my ship boxes. Flint/Hamilton/Miranda also.
What is your favorite episode of 1? Oh god, it’s such a tightly written show that it’s very hard to choose. A part of me says that an early episode would be happier (I’m quite partial to “Gore” (01x02) since it has the best sledge party hours anyone’s ever seen, before everything goes wrong) but the tenderness toward the end of the show is so heartbreakingly lovely. For all its pain, “The C the C the Open Sea” (01x09) is incredibly beautiful.
What is your favorite episode of 5? As mentioned above, “These Being the Words of Marcus Tullius Cicero,” (02x03) is uhhhhh something. My “favorite” isn’t necessarily how I’d put it, but there’s no other episode that comes even close, so here we are. (I am haunted by the abstract concept of peaches...)
What is your favorite season of 2? Thus far, season 2, but I haven’t gotten to the third and fourth seasons yet, so this means very little, apart from the fact that I have a general preference for seasons with flashbacks with Miranda and Hamilton in them.
How long have you watched 1? I just watched The Terror for the first time this year, about two months ago. Yeah, I don’t remember what life was like before that either, for many reasons.
How did you become interested in 3? My dear @princess-of-france​ showed me the entire show this past summer and we discussed it episode-by-episode – an absolutely incredible viewing experience.
Who is your favorite actor in 4? Well, we were just talking about the glorious François Arnaud.... I also love Jeremy Irons, though. Both; both are good.
Which do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5? Why is this being done to me? Not Rome, that’s for sure, but I do really like both Black Sails and The Terror. Right now, I’m still so deep in The Terror that it’s hard to deny that it’s my preference, tragically. But I’m getting rapidly more into Black Sails.
Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3? I’ve seen all of both, but there are more episodes of TURN: Washington’s Spies than there are of The Terror, so TURN it is.
If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? Oh this is NOT the show I would want to live in out of these five at ALL. Um, to be honest, I kind of adore the absolute moral conviction of Della Rovere. It would be... interesting to see what his journey is like from the inside.
Would a crossover between 3 and 4 work? If one has the ability to time travel, I suppose? A Long Island Yankee in Pope Alexander’s Court?
Pair two characters in 1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple? Given the dedication and care that The Terror’s fandom has shown to minor characters and rare pairs, I’m not sure any pairing would feel truly strange to me. I’m partial to some niche couples like Rossier and Goodsir/MacDonald, but those are still stronger than just “strangely okay.” In the spirit of trying to provide a genuinely unlikely pairing, I would say that I basically never EVER consider separating Bridgens and Peglar (our canon couple, the lights of my life) – but I do think that, in some horrible Peglar-less universe, Bridgens and Goodsir could be a good pairing. As it is, I love Bridgens and Goodsir as friends.
Overall, which show has the better storyline, 3 or 5? This isn’t at ALL fair, because TURN got the number of seasons it wanted, and HBO Rome was cut off early, but even without that, TURN is a vastly superior show in my book. It’s TURN, no question.
Which has better theme music, 2 or 4? Wow, this isn’t the kind of thing I typically notice? My instinct is Black Sails over Borgias, but tbh I’d have to go watch a few episodes of both and pay more specific attention to the music. (If TURN was in here, it would win for all the beautiful covers of period-era songs. I have a TURN playlist that’s in regular rotation.)
I honestly have so much fun doing these kind of tag games – thank you, Hal, for the tag!
As for me: @kaserl​ @frauncis​ @endofvanity​ and anyone else who’s interested!

N/A Were you a fan of Michael Jackson before he died? I was never really a fan. Respected him immensely as a musician, I just didn't care much about his music. Turkey or ham for Thanksgiving? Ham. Turkey is always too dry and stringy. Do you look good in hats? I wouldn't know, I haven't worn one in forever. Never with short hair. Colons or equal signs for your smiley face's eyes? Colons. Do you like architecture? If so, do you have a favourite style or structure that you’d like to make note? Yes, and I should really have an answer for this, as architecture was a big part in Art History... Ummm Etruscan stands out, and of course Roman/Greek (even after the class I don't remember their differences well...). I love Middle Eastern architecture, too. What is one of your favorite words, in any language, and why? I just love the sound of "serendipity," as well as uhhhh "sakura" in Japanese and "kanji" in Chinese. I'm trying to think of a German one, as there certainly are some, but they're evading me right now. Where is the farthest you’ve travelled on foot? JESUS FUCK probably going to get Sara's brother from school, mother of all that is holy. But it might just feel like it because it was during the peak of my muscle atrophy in my legs. Are there any songs that you perhaps like but avoid because it makes you sad when heard? A good number. Do you like the area that you live in? What do you like or dislike about the area? NO. There's not shit to do and it's not aesthetically pleasing at all. Do you have a memory of when you really thought that you have lucked out on something? If so, what was it? Uhhhhh. A handful, I guess? Oh, uh, the suicide attempt to name one and probably the biggest. I took way too many of those pills to experience almost zero symptoms of an overdose; I did look up what "too many" was, because I wanted that. I'd say I was pretty fuckin lucky. If you have apps on your mobile phone, which one do you use the most? Facebook. Which do you like better: fantasy or science fiction novels? Why? FANTASY!!! I think it allows more creativity and possibilities of something magically "making sense" because yeah, it's fantasy. Science fiction has more "realness" to it, more, obviously, scientific elements versus make-believe. Do you like opossums? Do you think it is ethically right for others to keep opossums as pets? OPOSSUMS!!!!!!!!! ARE!!!!!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They're my second-favorite animals kdsja;lkdjaw. BUT ANYWAY, no, unless it's for rescue reasons. When was the last time someone asked you a huge favor or advice? Do you get asked often by this person? Oh I have no idea. Probably my mom? And no, definitely not. She hates asking for help. What are your thoughts on nihilism? I definitely get it, but it's not my personal outlook. Do you like the snow? More like love. What are your thoughts and feelings towards work/jobs in general? I don't know? I've never even had a real, steady job, so it's hard to really answer... I've only had bad experiences. It's kinda weird to me how you have to work your ass off (usually) to get a job you enjoy, as well as slave for some stupid green paper until the day you die just to stay alive and healthy. But at the same time, it offers a sense of fulfilment and is as well something productive and beneficial to the masses to do. Civilization would be very, very different and unadvanced if we were without them, so I guess it is a necessary thing. Humans gotta work together to keep where we're at. Do you believe in astrology? I've never actually elaborated why I don't believe in it so there ya go: not in the slightest. All it does is offer extremely broad characteristics that, in some light, almost anyone can relate to so they feel included in something. We naturally want to "belong" within something as social creatures, and astrology is an easy one with it being so vast. It gives equally indirect advice that can be applied to a multitude of situations, so people just mold what they read to fit their world. Don't base your goddamn life choices on the random positioning of shit in space. What is something that you’ve made/created? Do you take pride in your creations? Well, way way way too many OCs that I do indeed love a hell of a lot. If you have a Tumblr account, do you have any followers that you wish would not follow you? Well I'm sure there are bots. What kind of books do you generally enjoy to read? Fantasy stuff, mostly. But I also love novels with deep meaning, particularly about life in general. A good plot is mandatory. Does the quality of a video, on YouTube or a television, matter to you? I mean of course in some situations, like if I'm watching something educational/something to gain visual knowledge from. What is one situation that may cause you to become shy (if there is any)? Don't don't don't don't don't point out that my serious interests/things I massively love are "weird" like it's been years and I can still barely explain why my biggest tattoo is a tribute to some fuckface on the Internet lmao. When one is depressed, what can a friend do about it? Do you find that there is a good method to approach people in helping them combat depression? It is SO important to, first, ask them what they want. Do they want advice, an ear to just listen, just your presence, to be alone? As for combating depression, that greatly depends on the origin (if any) of theirs. There are so many factors in answering this question, but what I mentioned should, imo, always be the start. Do you tend to listen to music that embraces your mood or does music dictate your mood? Is it a little bit of both? Definitely both. When I'm sad though, I'm almost definitely listening to somber music too. Do you find yourself to be generally a forgiving person? I'm too goddamn forgiving. Do you have an embarrassing memory that you now look back at and can laugh? If so and if you’re comfortable, could you share one here? Omg I have a Bible-length collection of those suckers. I'd prefer not to. What is one skill that you have worked hard to develop? Is there still room for improvement on that skill? Damn, anxiety-coping mechanisms and actually trusting them to help me through attacks. I used to be convinced that they were useless because it just wouldn't work and weren't immediately effective, but you've gooooooot to trust the process, friends. What do you consider to be your main passion(s) and how did they come about? Spreading awareness of the seriousness of mental health and the comfort of knowing there's hope. You can never stop pushing. My own experience with mental health struggles is definitely the deeeep roots of that. Who do you think influenced you the most in your life so far? Why? Jason changed my life in many ways. Trauma does that. He taught me a lot about the necessity of having faith in yourself to survive on your own, a shitload about love and how it's not some fairy tale, and that people change, even those you least expect to. What is something that you have overheard people talk about that really bothered you? I could name more than a few things about race stuff, living where I do. What do you normally say or how do you normally act in response to a compliment? I usually do this shy laugh and say "thank you" with too much enthusiasm. How many books do you own? Do you have more physical books than electronic books? I've no clue where a lot of my old ones are. I have no electronic ones; I strongly prefer to read a physical book. What are your thoughts on higher education? Is it really necessary? In your opinion, what changes can be made? Depending on your aspiring career, it can be necessary, but just as easily, it can be unnecessary. I know for a fucking fact it should not be NEARLY as expensive as it is. Maybe even free, but I have no idea what monetary concerns that could cause with whoever runs the place. Have you ever received a heartfelt compliment from a stranger? Probably at some point. How many people would you consider to be extremely close to you? "Extremely"... like three lmao. Maybe one more or so. When was the last time you had to speak to a crowd? How well did that go? When I was taking pictures at a wedding last. It went okay. How would you describe your general outlook towards humanity? We by no means deserve to be the apex predator and Earth would be a shitload better without us. How long do you think you could last without any contact with your significant other, best friend, or a person whom you consider would be the closest to you? I'll use my mom here, in which case idk. I don't particularly want to find out. I talk to her at LEAST by text daily. Every day now that she can't work/is always home with me. Have you ever realised that someone was lying, but it was too late to confront them? Nope. Eventually speaking up is how I lost her, but.

ryker do you EVER think before you speak
alright.... so. back in 2014ish when i was still sort of active on my timelord bbc moriarty blog i decided to make a blog for the master, because why not, right? i was already playing one evil mastermind, another couldn't hurt.
so back then, when my url was masterofyourrace, alan cumming was the fc i picked out for a post-simm master. i think i was just coming off of a month-long grounding where all i had to occupy myself with was watching the last of the timelords eps on on-demand and felt pretty okay with the master's characterization. (i'd previously watched the utopia arc, dw) (though this could be wrong and might actually have been why i decided to make jim a fobwatched timelord named the spider)
and then uhhhhh. idk what happened. i lost muse, i guess? and i decided to delete the blog to use the email for another chara, probs an oc. i'd also put jim on hiatus bc i kind of lost muse for him too.
and that was the end of alan cumming master.
and then came august of last year. (wow, realised that this blog is a year old already, holy shit) i was two weeks shy of starting my second year of college (which didnt go well, thanks to depression and unchecked add), vaguely active on my sirius black blog and thinking "hey, i miss playing the master" because of an incredible fanfic i read, which is linked on my verses page under "v: you are not alone".
so what do i do? i rewatch all of simms episodes to regain muse, remember that i used alan c as a regeneration, and shit devolves from there.
i decide to move alan's place around on the master's timeline, make him an alt jacobi/pre-simm master (bc there are not that many resources for jacobi) and start watching the good wife, because i love alan c.
then, i find out that alan c is scottish, and i fall in love all over again. so i flesh him out a bit more.
alan c master is scottish. he starred in cabaret three times, and won a tony for the 98 production, just like alan c actually did. this is where the similarities stop.
for one, alan c is human and was in the spy kids movies and probably does not pine for his childhood best friend.
alan c master, however. he is helplessly in love with the doctor, is quickly heading into a war he does not want to be a part of, and hates everything about his home planet.
so he runs, so much like the doctor did. he steals a tardis, plays the emcee three times in cabaret, rouges his nips, and pines.
and then, i find out: alan c is going to be in an episode of doctor who with jodie as 13. i add that episode (s11 e8, the witchfinders) to his timeline.
the last time the master had seen the doctor, he was attempting to throw him into the eye of harmony after killing the two humans that got involved. (aka the 1996 movie.)
after regaining a body (through being a weird slime snake thing and hijacking another timelord's body. the previous inhabitant of the body's mind was completely gone, idk why.), he visits his daughter on gallifrey, picks up this awful 4:4 beat in his head, becomes a diplomatic emissary between the time lords and the daleks, because he's the worst of the time lords and he'd make an impressive dalek, and sustains several bumps and scrapes and maybe a few laser gun wounds.
now, he's only a little bit war-weary, suffering from the drums where he hadn't before (thanks to timey wimey shit ill never be able to explain coherently. basically it boils down to "the classic masters didnt mention the drums so they must not have had them, and also since it was heavily implied that the gallifreyan council put them in his head (during the war, after giving him a new set of regens) to use as a signal, he shouldn't have them until he goes through the war, so he doesnt.") and sees the doctor, full of hope, and sadness, and blonde and a woman and he realises once again just how madly in love with them he is. (the blonde reminds him too much of a young boy he used to run through fields with, a boy whose mother's photo album he stole and now keeps on his tardis, locked tightly and far away from any prying eyes)
(tangent: 13 is the only doctor that is shorter than any of the masters.)
so maybe he flirts with ryan sinclair to piss the doctor off, even though she doesn't realise who he is, and plays the part of king james 1 very, very well.
(another tangent: is 13 blonde and a woman because of rose? more at 11.)
and he decides "fuck the war" and picks up a human companion, parker james (my oc over @pjsuper), to travel with.
he hasn't yet watched his daughter die, hasn't yet lost his capacity for love and forgiveness, and just wants to see his friend again.
so getting to see 13 again in 17th century lancashire really helps his mood.
however, the war catches up to him. he manipulates it in his favor, before eventually getting killed and gifted a new set of regenerations in exchange for helping gallifrey win the war.
he doesn't hold up his end of the bargain, too pissed off at finally having the chance to die and stay dead forcefully ripped from him, at having this 4:4 beat constantly pounding and threatening to crack his skull open, at having to watch the life fade from his daughter's eyes as she lays in his arms, unable to regenerate.
the war scars him. he's lost so much he can't even fathom it.
so he fobwatches himself into a human, runs to the end of the universe, hopes that this will be it, that he'll never have to face the horrors of war again. only to be found by the doctor and his companion, one miss martha jones, and he's given a new life. one born out of anger and hurt and betrayal and loss, and he blames everything on gallifrey, and the doctor, and nothing will change his mind about it.
until "get out of the way," which fills him with hope once more. he gets sucked back into the war, trapped and tortured until he can escape, and regenerates into missy. (that trapped and tortured hc comes straight from ty over on the dw rp discord server, because i adore it and ty's master.)
with missy comes the kiss they've waited thousands of years to give, and "two hearts. and both of them yours" and a fractured friendship starting to finally heal, until it's brutally cut short by a knife in the back and a regeneration back into a man, who's fc is alan van sprang.
alan van sprang master i haven't gotten the chance to flesh out as well yet, but i want to.
