there's just something so delicious about friends-to enemies-to lovers

barely teenage steve and eddie who have a devastating end to what they both thought would be a forever friendship. maybe it's a misunderstanding or maybe it's just teenage angst that felt impossible to fix in the moment.

but i am feral over the idea that the only reason steve ever became 'king steve' strutting around with tommy and carol with his aloof, semi-mean girl attitude was because of the falling out with eddie. that he did it so he didn't feel so much hurt over it. still has no idea what he did to make eddie suddenly hate him.

same with eddie. he definitely liked metal and nerdy shit all along, but maybe he only leaned into the whole 'forced conformity, it's what's killing the kids' freak persona to guard himself. as armor. because he fucking misses steve as much as he hates him. so he glares and makes snarky comments. finds his solace in DnD and his band.

they fight with words and shoulder shoves in the hallway. each of them too proud to ever talk it out and fix things. to the point that their peers don't remember that steve and eddie used to be inseparable. everyone but steve and eddie forget the obvious affection and closeness they once shared.

it takes a bunch of freshmen to put them back into each other's orbit.

it takes the upside down, a dead cheerleader and an evil wizard for them to actually get along again.

because steve is meant to hate eddie but the moment he sees the trailer and hears the word 'murder' he feels like he might throw up.

Please, god, not eddie.

only to find out he supposedly murdered chrissy cunningham. despite all the animosity between the two of them, steve knows in his soul that eddie would never kill anyone.

even when he's against a wall with sharp glass pressed to his neck, heart racing as he looks into the eyes he tries not to think about, steve knows that eddie won't actually hurt him.

steve has the urge to stay with eddie at the lake house and make sure nothing else happens to him. instead, he stops forcing himself to be an asshole towards eddie. it's exhausting and he's never truly meant it anyways. the upside-down shit is threatening the one person he hoped would never be a part of it.

it takes eddie watching steve get pulled under lover's lake and attacked by demon bats to realize that the biggest misunderstanding was of his own thirteen year old self's feelings. that he could've lost steve and he'd have never even told him the truth of why he let their friendship implode over such a ridiculous misunderstanding.

that he wanted more than friendship and that scared the hell out of him at thirteen.

he sees steve bleeding and throwing himself into danger over and over. realizes that yeah, steve harrington is a good guy. his own personal munson doctrine is fundamentally flawed and untrustworthy and he's in love with this stupidly brave man, maybe since forever.

make him pay means i'm sorry, i love you, please be safe, come back.

it takes eddie nearly dying and his steve carrying him out of hell for eddie to realize that steve never hated him either. that what eddie always views as aloofness and superiority was hurt and steve trying to deal. regardless of whatever lays in the past, steve holds him together with his hands and begs eddie to stay. whispers that he loves him, always has loved him, always will love him.

eddie thinks about all the years they lost due to teenage angst and fear. fights to keep his eyes open and stay, because steve his sobbing and begging him not to go.

and when eddie finally wakes up in the hospital, it's steve and uncle wayne next to him. steve won't leave his side, maybe ever again. neither of them with any desire to ever look at each other with anything but love.

#steddie #friends to enemies to lovers #friends to enemies #enemies to lovers #feeling mildly angsty but still a sucker for a HEA #angst

every time I see a human talking about "how cool it would be to have superpowers" or some shit like that I loose it a little bit more. do these people realize that being a mutant isn't just fun powers. like even beyond the shit I deal with trying to get jobs or all the relationships that have been ruined once people realized I'm a mutant. abilities aren't just fun and games, I have a friend who can't touch people without nearly killing them, I burned down three buildings before someone finally taught me to control my abilities, and these people are all like "wouldn't it be great to fly to work every day??" just admit that you see us as comic book characters and not real people with real struggles

HEY! shout-out to people with *weird* mutations. Mutations that don't look cool, mutations that are gross, mutations that are dirty, mutations that you can't tell people about because they always cringe. You're just as valid as every other mutant out there. Your powers don't need to be palettable to humans for you to be treated with respect.

god i am so tired of the hypocrisy in this community. the double standards are insane. its okay to have 'scary' powers but the moment someone's abilities are scarier than like, pyrokinesis you're evil and dangerous to be around. 'acceptance' for you people only means nice mutants who've never hurt or scared anyone ever.

okay like. i get that were all about acceptance and pride or w/e but no one in this tag has ever had friends irl i swear. if someone asks you not to read their mind you shouldnt. honestly you shouldnt be using telepathy on people at all without their permission. mutant abilities dont disclude you from respecting peoples boundaries

🌌rosetvler Mutuals

i swear to god you people are such hypocrites. its all 'mutant and proud' until someone has a power you dont like. its always about keeping the humans feeling comfortable instead of thinking about how it feels to never use your powers because theyre breaking 'boundaries' that were made up by humans in the first place

[firesnap]

i have a genuine question. i promise i am not at all trying to defend him. ive dropped him entirely, literally deleted everything i had of him and unliked his songs.

ive just been wondering like considering that he has been in therapy, and also considering how if he does take a year off and then comes back, why cant it be redeemable? like cant people change? cant we give them second chances? he is 27. is he just doomed to be an abuser forever?

its just scary and im asking as like a younger person who is in my very early 20s. i know ive made mistakes. i know ive not been a good partner or friend sometimes. (and yes i was also abusive to a past partner...im not proud of it and ive learned from it. i have never ever touched anyone in that way after that. it took awhile but my current relationship isnt toxic and i would never hurt anyone or hit them again yknow?) and it scares me that people keep insinuating that he is irredeemable. like cant abusers change and become better? dont they get second chances? if shelby has grown and healed in 10 months wouldn't it be fair to say the same for wilbur?

im just genuinely asking because based on everything i believe you are older than me and im looking for guidance and just...idk im scared. growing up on the internet has made me so scared of making mistakes and doing anything wrong because when it happens to others i look up to, its always treated as something they'll never be able to change or improve. makes me feel like imma just be a horrible person forever because i made mistakes in the past.

This is a really complicated question that multiple answers can validly fit.

I don't think, personally, that anyone is irredeemable. I think everyone is on a journey of forgiveness and some of us may need more grace than others.

This is tw// abuse even more than the current topic, but my mom was incredibly abusive. We lived in a very rural area and she had a lot of undiagnosed problems and trauma of her own that created a pressure pot of issues. After I was born, she suffered through full on post-partum psychosis that nearly ended about as well as that sentence implies it could have. She was incredibly violent, controlling, and cruel for years. My sister went no-contact with her the second she turned 18. A significant event occurred that eventually spurned her into seeking real treatment that lasted for years. It's still ongoing.

My sister is also still no contact and I support her decision 100%. Those are her wounds and what she needed to do to get peace should be respected. I decided I wanted a relationship with the person who came out of all that work and, even then, it's been hard. I don't know if she's redeemed herself, and my god do we still have bumps in the road, but I support her for trying.

With Wilbur, how he responds to this is going to really impact a lot of things. I mean, I know no matter how he responds I won't be going on whatever journey of redemption and healing he has to go through. I'm tired and I feel hurt enough. I would think, if he wanted to show he was sincere, admitting what happened would be a great sense of closure for a lot of people who put time and energy and faith into this guy for years.

Not every person that causes harm is inherently evil, but there has to be some kind of knowledge that you're aware of the harm you've caused. No one is stuck as anything forever, life is constantly moving, and most people aren't saying his life is just over. You can work on yourself. You can change. And I'm saying that specifically to you, anonymous.

(Saying this, actually, there ARE people who would argue once you've done x you're beyond redemption based entirely on their life experiences as a victim, personal histories and many other factors. Kinda like my sister, that's their choice. And you have to accept that sometimes you fuck up so badly that you will permanently lose some people from your life. But your life isn't over.)

But I do think, regardless of what he says or does about this, his time of controlling a large platform is at an end. He can still do a lot of things in his life after he works on himself -- editing, song producing, directing, writing or whatever -- but being in charge of a large impressionable audience that could enable more destructive behaviors is just not it.

#the current state of things

[starlightshadowsworld]

Bsd except Dazai was never part of the Port Mafia.

But he keeps somehow getting involved with them. To the point a lot of the Port Mafia think he is.

Like Dazai was just going for a walk through Suribachi city, because he was bored.

Next thing you know, he and Chuuya are facing down the dead Port Mafia Boss.

Chuuya joins the Port Mafia, Dazai isn't even part of it. And they still end up becoming Double Black.

Because their both chaos magnets and keep running into each other during various crisis's.

Mori keeps trying to recruit Dazai and he refuses every time.

There's an executive spot open for him, but no one realises that it hasn't been taken.

There's a whole ass legend about the Demon Prodigy of the Port Mafia. That he's so sinister and evil no one knows what he looks like.

Meanwhile Dazai's just some broke artist that works at some cafe.

He found the Akutugawa siblings starving on one of his walks and invited them into the cafe.

Where he teased em for putting way too much sugar in their tea and they've been close ever since.

They both still end up join the Port Mafia and visit often.

Dazai's given Akutugawa some pointers on his ability.

And because of that, Akutugawa works hard to make him proud. He considers Dazai his first mentor and respects the hell out of him.

This story is interpreted very differently by the Port Mafia. Who see Akutugawa's rage and violence. And assume his mentors to blame.

And not... Him being 16 and incredibly emo.

His actual mentor in the Port Mafia is Chuuya.

But people rarely see them together and assume it's the mysterious Demon Prodigy. A man so dead inside he probably beats up his subordinate and is endlessly cruel.

Cut to Dazai at the cafe, lighting up and bouncing over as soon as the Akutugawa siblings show up at the cafe.

Mori's not exactly helping to stop the rumours.

Dazai still befriends Oda and Ango, they're regulars and they frequent Bar Lupin together. And Mori still uses them against him.

Odasaku dies and Dazai joins the Agency. To make the most out of his life, and to personally spite Mori forevermore.

Dazai meets Atsushi, gets him some food and is just like welp another stray.

Reasons that with Atsushi's lack on control with his ability, and desperate need of a job. Helps him land one at the Agency.

There's like 3 minutes of Akutugawa and Atsushi having a stare off before they just sit, drink tea together and have a nice conversation.

Though they have to put up appearances in battle of course. Since their technically enemies but only at work.

Dazai's "secret" comes out and he spends a good long hour screaming profanities into a pillow before explaining himself.

The layout of the Port Mafia being one Dazai knows, it's because he's been kidnapped that many times and has made fun of the structure.

Mori took that as constructive criticism and made the changes.

Dazai just really hates Mori.

He makes it very clear to everyone at the Agency that everything he knows about Mori and the Port Mafia inner workings is entirely against his will.

But man it took a lot of convincing.

Like yes I might have Port Mafia connections, some personal ones. I might also resemble the vague description of the "Demon Prodigy."

And sure there's an executive spot quite literally with my name on it. And yeah I know Mori, unfortunately better than most people.

But I am not a member of the Port Mafia and I never have been.

... See this is why I kept my past a secret.

Yosano is just like, no yeah that checks out he would do that.

And Ranpo is just laughing his ass off and says Dazai's telling the truth and there is peace... For now.

The Cast: Introducing 3 Characters

Here's some info on the three characters in the header, from left to right!

#1 — Dr. Immanuel Icarus Faust

❝ It wasn't supposed to be like this... I've failed... as both a doctor and a man of faith. I wanted to follow your teachings, dear Goddess, and guide those who seek wisdom and knowledge, as grandmother did... but I couldn't even save one innocent girl. Have I become godless? ❝

Raised by his grandmother, the High Priestess of Solbrynn's temple, Immanuel was taught from an early age on to aspire to be the best in everything he attempted to do and dedicate his life to wisdom, in order to make the Goddess Adira proud. Having become a renowned physician at the age of 28, Immanuel understands himself as his kingdom's ideal of a self-made man: a scholar who can achieve everything he puts his mind to, no matter the circumstances. As a result, he has put himself on a pedestal, believing that those who achieved less than him had all the chances and merely didn't use them. Fearing nothing more than failure and becoming anything like his absent, alcoholic father; Immanuel is bound for a rude awakening.

#2 — Morgan Miralaith

❝ While you were having your existential crisis in the mad scientist laboratory you call your bedroom, I took the liberty to read your grandmother's diary. The good news is, I finally understand where all the hubris comes from. ❝

Morgan, belonging to a long-lived species from the realm of Calliah, is the second-in-command for the Elsthess Resistance against the Plague Avatars. While the Resistance on Mhorunn regards her as a capable leader and a skilled fighter; using fire magic to blaze her way to victory; it is clear to most that she has many secrets and ulterior motives. She cares about others in her own way, yet hardly lets anyone close to her. With her mischievous demeanor and cynical nature, Morgan has made it her new mission to recruit Immanuel for the Resistance and, while at it, shatter his very distorted self-image and worldview. Upon forging a contract with her, Immanuel believes that he has sold his soul to a demon. It is only upon meeting others of her kind that he realizes that really is just her personality.

#3 — Mortis Grimm

❞ People reject that which is foreign to them. You of all people should know this. Still, my personal aspirations and origins are of no concern to you. Remember that. ❝

While there are several people from the Realm of Calliah in Elsthess, the realm that Mortis Grimm originated from is unknown. He seems to be the only one of his kind and there is something sinister about him. Wielding powerful magic that matches no other in recorded nature, Mortis, despite being the leader of the Resistance, is a big mystery to all of its members. Usually donning a Plague Doctor mask, Morgan is among the few to have seen his face. He is Mhorunn's greatest ally, but hardly a trusted one. Most understand that he could just as well become its greatest enemy one day.

Resident Evil 4

SUCH A GOOD BOY!: Leon S. Kennedy x fem!reader

Summary: As they rescue the trapped wolf, Leon's lover has a very important question to ask.

Notes: English isn't my first language. I apologize for any mistake I made while I wrote this short story.

Someone get this man a dog!

Warnings: swearing, mentioned violence, bad little beartraps

•••

"Poor puppy, the beartrap got you too, huh?" she mumbled to the hurt, whimpering wolf as Leon was doing his best to pry the beartrap open. "We'll help you, don't you worry."

"There you go, buddy." Leon spoke to the wolf as well after he was finally able to force the trap open. He waited until the animal pulled its leg out, which wasn't an easy task - his tensed up muscles told her that much.

When the wolf was finally free it looked back at them, while it licked it's hurt leg. Then it did its best to get the well known proud and straight posture back as it barked as a thank you.

"Look at this guy! How adorable!" she spoke up as the wolf turned around and ran away, even if it had a limp what seemed to slow it down.

"Yeah, you're right." Leon agreed as he stood up and let the beartrap close up again with a loud noise.

He looked at his lover, who was still looking after the wolf hoping she'll catch another glimpse of it in the high bushes. He couldn't help but smile as well at her soft features and small giggles. So loving and kind, yet so dangerous at the same time.

"Leon?"

"What is it, sweetheart?"

"Can we please-"

"No." Leon interrupted with a chuckle, knowing what she wanted to say. "I'm afraid we can't."

"Why?" she seemed hurt at his answer. "Look at how cute it was! And it's hurt now!"

"But we can't bring it with us, darling." he explained as he took one of her hands and pressed a kiss into her palm.

"Sure thing we can!" she argued, but her gestures were still soft, making Leon know that she wasn't actually angry with him. "Just imagine our days off; you, me and the dog on the couch watching some shitty movies."

"A wolf, sweetheart. It's a wolf, not a dog. We wouldn't have the time to take care of it, we don't get that many days off." Leon pressed a kiss to her forehead as he hugged her, his voice was still patient and kind. "Although it would be funny to see the neighbours faces."

"Exactly! Especially after that girl was all over you."

"She wasn't for long. You scared her to death." Leon laughed at the memory of her lover with the typical jealous 'you're dead' glance.

"Sure thing I did. I couldn't let her steal you away from me."

"No one will steal me away, I promise."

Their lips met in a short, but sweet kiss; while her hands found their way up to his hair and neck. She pulled away and hugged him, hiding her face in the crook of his neck.

"We have to go, sweetheart. We have to find Baby Eagle."

She giggled and took a step back, looking up at him. "Wait 'til I tell her we call her Baby Eagle."

His hand found hers as they got going. She intertwined their fingers and she felt his thumb gently stroke her knuckles.

"Actually... I think she'd agree with me. We should take the puppy home..."

Leon just sighed as he tried to hide a chuckle. There was no way she'll let that topic go - not for a while at least.

•••

She groaned as she grabbed Leon's arms, who - like the gentleman he is - was kind enough to help her up. As soon as she was on her feet again she got attacked by his hugs, his hands keeping her close to his chest, his lips kissing the top of her head. It was a thing that always melted her heart. After every enemy, after every hard path he was right next to her, kissing her, checking up on her, looking at her limbs to make sure she didn't get any cuts or bruises.

"Are you all right?"

"Yeah, yeah I am." she answered, still keeping her face hidden in his chest, only pulling away to look up at him and make sure he was fine as well. "What about you?"

" 'Never been better."

She playfully smacked his arm at the answer, worry was still on her face.

"No need for any of that macho bullshit. I'm being serious, are you okay?"

"Of course I am, darling. Thanks to you... and your buddy."

And there it was, her buddy was standing on a cliff, its posture proud and happy as it panted, because it got tired after the fight with the 'big boy' as Leon called that thing. It howled and looked down at them again.

"Yeah, my buddy. I told you the little guy is the best help around here."

"That you did sweetheart. That you did." Leon mumbled as his lover let go of him to walk towards the cliff to say thank you for the wolf's help.

"Thanks buddy." he spoke to the animal as well when he walked up to it, remembering how the wolf distracted the monster so it didn't attack his lover.

"Such a good boy, right?"

Leon turned to look at his partner, examined the way her eyes were shining, how her voice got a small pitch when she talked to the animal. He loved how her lips formed a big, happy smile and how her whole posture relaxed.

"Yeah, you're right." he looked at the wolf again. The animal was standing at the edge of the cliff, looking down at them, wiggling its tail. It didn't seem to be afraid of them or angry at them. It seemed pretty cute and curious - even Leon had to admit that. "Do you want to pet him?"

"Can I?" the way her eyes lightened up at his words made it impossible for him to say no.

"Come here."

He grabbed her waist, being careful to not put too much pressure on her ribs, and lifted her up, until she could be on the same level as the wolf. She then stretched out her arm, letting the wolf sniff her hand and when it made sure she wasn't there for an attack, it took a step towards her, letting her pet its head.

"Leon?" she asked at her fingers brushed along the animal's fur.

"What is it sweetheart?"

"Can we please take-"

"No, I'm sorry but we can't." he chuckled at her words. "But I promise you that we'll get a puppy when we get home."

Her sudden excitement almost made them fall over - but just like always, he was there to catch her and look out for her safety.

[catholic-character-tournament]

Round 1 - Side A

Propaganda below ⬇️

Claude Frollo Propaganda:

This man got horny and his response was “that woman must burn”

I love him so much. More seriously Book Frollo is much more ambivalent than Disney Movie Frollo which makes sense because we're talking about Victor Hugo VS a children's movie. He didn't kill Quasimodo's mom, he took him in (when himself was only nineteen and already in charge of his own baby brother since their parents had died not long before) when he was left on the church's doorstep. I mean, he does quite a few reprehensible and slightly evil stuff afterwards but he had a good start, you know ? He taught Quasi to communicate by signs when he became deaf because of the bells. He was also very much into alchemy which was pretty cool. His behavior towards Esmeralda was still very much not okay but I'd like to point out that Phoebus is also a jerk in this one. And Quasi's quite a bit amoral because no intelligent enough to understand some stuff

I actually haven't gotten very far through the book yet but from the musical (not the disney one the other one it's SO GOOD) I can confirm he sucks at being catholic. literally tells a child over and over that he's ugly and unlovable until he fully believes it and won't let the kid go outside. https://genius.com/Alan-menken-out-there-lyrics (lyrics to the song in which frollo convinces quasimodo he's unlovable. ableist as hell and shitty in every way you can possibly imagine and it breaks my heart every time. feel free to listen to the actual track but it doesn’t get good until about 40 seconds in) frollo keeps saying it's good and right to punish sinners himself, and it's not right that the wicked go unpunished. there's a really satisfying moment in the musical where quasimodo sees him for what he is and repeats his words back to him (7:45 - 8:54, frollo is the one with the insanely deep voice) and it gives me goosebumps every time to hear that "yes you do" link to that video: https://youtu.be/HL7WZcTIgus

I honestly wrote this submission because I suffered from severe insomnia for being reminded that I might have poor taste when it comes to enjoying media since I enjoy Disney version of Frollo even after I watched other versions of this character. (I am so sorry the host yes I am that annoying anon lying in the dark little corner of your ask box. I have no other thing to do in my life so hello again) His character is different from the original novel version, and to be honest as an adoption, that is NOT necessarily WRONG. He had more struggles with his pride and his self-imagine in the Catholic framework. "Beata Maria, you know I am a righteous man, of my virtue I am justly proud" as the opening line of his villain song, clearly states his main struggle throughout the movie--pride and self-imagine (super-ego) vs lust and instinct (id). Once his self-imagine in the Catholic framework was on shaking ground, he bent his twisted sense of "righteous" to make him less painful. Tbh, the novel version used the example of Bruno d’Ast to justify his hornyness, so it's just classical Frollo behaviour no matter which version it is. (SMASH THE TABLE) HAVE YOU READ~~THE NOVEL~~ I REPEAT: HIS CHARACTER IS NOT JUST "I HATE WITCHCRAFT AND I AM HORNY AND RACIST". I REPEAT: HIS CHARACTER IS NOT JUST "I HATE WITCHCRAFT AND I AM HORNY AND RACIST". I REPEAT: HIS CHARACTER IS NOT JUST "I HATE WITCHCRAFT AND I AM HORNY AND RACIST".

Javert Propaganda:

His whole deal is like, “can someone still be good even if they’ve broken the law? Can you still be godly if you’re a felon” He really believes that by upholding the law, he is absolutely in the moral right all the time. And when he realizes that’s not true, it absolutely destroys him

he is the law and the law is not mocked <3 he is also. so gay. i'm sorry i refuse to believe you're even a little heterosexual if you chase jean valjean for like over 20 years for breaking parole and/or bread theft and recognise him by his muscles and have a major moral crisis as soon as he's nice to you one (1) time also he gets called out by a child that one time?? that was fun ALSO HE UHH???? THINKS HE SCREWED UP ONE TIME AND LIKE. ASKS HIS BOSS TO FIRE HIM???? (the boss is valjean he doesn't know that yet dw abt it) also uh uhm. he jumps into a river,,,, but before he does that he feels the need to put his hat on the fence nearby so it doesn't get wet lmao he's so silly goofy <3333

Only Dolce's saccharine nature could counter Kabalè's acrid attitude.

Probably one of my best pairs in terms of contrast, hands down! I'm really proud of how they came out :D Let's go over them design notes:

While Kabalè gave me a lot of room for exploration between her two canon designs, Dolce was pretty straightforward in terms of source material, since she's a series-exclusive character.

I wanted to keep Dolce as part of the main cast because I noticed some animosity from the fandom towards her back in the day, particularly over how "dumb" and stereotypically girly she was. There should be room for ultra-feminine characters in girl-focused media, because I know a lot of girls and women love them and look up to them, and who am I to deny them their fun?

My position regarding Dolce pretty much defined what I would do with Kabalè. If Dolce got to be unapologetically feminine in the traditional sense, why, Kabale HAD to be feminine in a transgressive sense! Those familiar with Ever After High know what I'm talking about: the "opposite" figure to the pink goodie-goodie princess is the purple rebellious evil witch.

My decision to make Kabalè more tanned than her canon counterparts stemmed from the same place as Mefisto and Gabi's changes: it matched her new design much better in terms of color contrast, and adding a bit more variety to the devils wouldn't hurt. I also wanted to pay homage to her hair in both iterations by making her blonde with a high ponytail and a streak.

I studied Dolce's key traits and focused on them for her new design: hearts, pink contrasted with blue and white, and puffy hair. I actually increased the amount of pink but used less saturated hues so they wouldn't clash or feel like too much, and used cyan and off-white accessories to visually segment her body by her joints, similar to an articulated doll.

For Kabalè I chose to mix her "spooky-chic" colors from the series with her comic design, and then I focused on modernizing said design! Not gonna lie, I had a lot of fun looking at current urban fashion and playing around with Kabalè's purple palette, it's not too common apparently (outside of Gengar apparel, lol).

Dolce's mascot, a blushing phantom butterfly, is right atop her hairband to represent how Dolce is the most emotionally mature of the group, since she's also naturally open-minded and focused on positive self-growth. Meanwhile, Kabalè's badger bat perches inside her jacket's inner pocket, symbolizing how Kabalè's polarizing nature often isolates her from the world around her.

Honestly I'm glad these two came out as well as they did, for the longest time I was stuck with them until some good friends of mine gave me a crucial helping hand. To put it bluntly, I wanted them to look grand but my sense of fashion is a bit too practical... all my pants are jeans and I only wear grayscale t-shirts :V Here's the obligatory link to my rewrite fic I'll Fly With You, which I'm working on pretty diligently for now. No promises, but it takes me something like 2 months per chapter? let's hope I didn't jinx it by telling you, heh.

You’re About To Lose The Best Damn Thing You’ve Ever Had

Words: 5,059

Warnings: language, feelings of insecurities/not feeling good enough, talk of alcohol/alcohol consumption, lowkey mention of mommy issues at the VERY end, maybe ooc characters and probably bad writing

Resident Evil Masterlist Main Masterlist Join My Taglist

This also was originally written for my OC Tiffany (Whose info on her/original story will eventually be available on this account @imnotobsessedwfictionalchracters )

Leon, Claire, and Chris are PROBABLY OOC (as I suck at not being able to keep them from being OOC)

Actually highkey proud of this cause it's one of the longest things I've written in a while

Reader and Leon are partners with their job (have been since 2004/2005) and is insinuated to be around the same height as Leon

I will also preface this by saying I've only had whiskey once or twice (most as I don't like it) so I'm not sure how it feels when it goes down so I just did what I always say for alcohol

I also am aware that Leon and Chris did not meet until 2010. But personally? I don't give a fuck as it makes no sense to me and I swear to God I thought that they knew each other for longer. So in my fics, if it takes place before 2010 and Chris and Leon are friends, means they met before then. Thank you

Loosely has themes from the songs The Great War by Taylor Swift, the 1 by Taylor Swift, and You're Gonna Lose The Best Thing In Your Life by Juliet Simms

Anywho, enjoy

December 21st of 2008

Y/N laid on the ground, breathing heavily. Personally, she didn’t want to move, Leon really knocked the fucking life out of her. She heard his laugh before she felt his hand wrap around her wrist and lift her up to her feet. She groaned when she felt the floor under her and her body nearly colliding with his. She sighed and looked at his face, giving him a soft smile that he returned and started to lean in for a kiss. She glanced and saw that they were still the only ones in the training room, so she leaned in as well. And as soon as their lips connected, he tried to deepen it, which she let. But she had other plans and she used the fact that he was distracted by her to knock him to the ground. 

Their lips disconnected as he landed on his back with a hard ‘oof’. She smirked down at him, too proud of herself for doing that that she didn’t realize that he was leaning up to grab her wrist again until she was pulled down on top of him. Legs straddling his hips, a reason she was thankful that her body easily could do the splits. He pulled her face back into his, refusing to let her remove her lips from his or let her get the upper hand. Not that she wanted to do it this time. She just smiled into the kiss, mentally thanking the Universe for allowing the training room to be empty and thanking Leon for making sure they were in a corner furthest and most hidden from the door. A precaution he had started taking the past few months, just in case someone decided to come in and join them in training.

Of course, she didn’t care much if they were seen as it was just simple kissing. Or, it was until Leon’s hands came down from her waist to where one was gripping the back of her thigh and the other was gripping her ass. His lips on hers swallowed the moan that came from her mouth when he did that and she was ever so grateful for it. Usually she was better at keeping herself quiet in situations like this, but this time she just hadn’t been able to. So once again, she was grateful that Leon was ever so smarter than her in these aspects.

This continued for a few minutes, all that could be heard in the room was their kissing and heavy breathing. His top had been abandoned fairly quickly and her sports bra was about to be unzipped when they heard the sound of the door slamming shut. They both froze and stared over to where the door was. When she heard no other noises, her eyes carefully looked at Leon. She saw his face and realized that he was scanning the room for someone else to be in there. But she also saw the small look of fear on it as well. Something that somebody who didn’t know him like she did, someone who hadn’t learned who to read his small facial expressions that would usually go unnoticed.

She gently placed a finger under his chin and moved his head to be fully facing her. She gave him a soft smile before kissing his temple, something she had accidentally learned calmed him down after a mission before they even got together. She gently moved her hand from his chin to run her fingers through his hair. 

“You okay?” Her voice was soft, barely above a whisper, not loud enough to be heard by anyone except for Leon.

He nodded, taking the hand away from his hair and ran his thumb over the top of it. “Yeah, I don’t think anyone is in here.” His voice was the same level as hers, just above a whisper, but unless someone was really trying, they wouldn’t hear them.

“So did we imagine it or...”

He sighed, “I don’t know.” He gently moved her off of his hips and grabbed his shirt from where they tossed it. “But I think it was a good thing. I don’t want to get too carried away in here.”

She raised an eyebrow at him, “So in your car in the parking garage is okay but the training room isn’t?”

He shrugged and she noticed him repressing the small smile that started to form. “A little more secluded. Not as out in the open as in here is.”

She laughed as she zipped her bra up the rest of the way and stood. “Yeah, I guess you have me there Lee.” She sighed and moved to twist her back, trying to pop it. “So are we done for the day? Am I allowed to go home?”

“I didn’t force you to do this. You willingly agreed.”

She shrugged as she grabbed her jacket that had been tossed to the side almost as soon as they started over 2 hours ago. “Because, yesterday you promised me food if I agreed. Something I still haven’t gotten, mind you.”

He laughed, “Well I’m sorry sweetheart, would you like to go get some now?”

“Hmm, I dunno. You already lied once, how do I know you won’t lie again.”

He grabbed her waist and pulled her into him, leading her to let out a yelp. He leaned his head down to the crook of her neck. “When have I ever lied to you?”

She leaned back into his grasp, “A few weeks ago when you said that you weren’t injured and you had gotten shot. When you said that we wouldn’t have to deal with Ada again anytime soon but then had to 2 months later. When you said that I usually get the Holidays off.” She turned around in his grasp and wrapped her own arms around his neck, “I’ve been here since 2004 and never once have I had Christmas off. That’s 4 years Lee.”

“In my defense, usually I don’t see Ada so soon after a previous time. And up until I met you, I had Christmas off. So if it’s anyone's fault as to why we always have to go on missions during Christmas, it’s yours Y/N/N.”

She hummed, “Well, at least we still have it off this year.”

“That’s right now, we still have 3 days. Anything can change.”

She groaned and leaned back some, “Please Lee, don’t make me sad at that possibility. I really want to be able to celebrate this year. Claire agreed to come over if we have it off. She even said she convinced Chris to take it off!”

“Chris? Redfield? Took time off? I had no idea he even knew what it was.”

She laughed as she moved from his grasp and linked her arm in his and started walking towards the door. “Apparently, according to Claire, he does.”

He kissed the top of her head before unlinking their arms as he opened the door and she tried to ignore the small pang that hit her. She knew why he did it, but it didn’t mean she had to like it. Doesn’t mean she ever had to like the fact that everything about their relationship was basically this whole secret that they had to keep. Well, keep a secret to everyone they worked for. Even though she was sure Ingrid knew. She had to. She had to deal with the two of them on missions and had called them in when the other was in the bed (kitchen, on the couch, etc.) with them. She gave them suspicious looks all the time when they showed up together or extremely soon after the other. There was no way she didn’t know.

Her clothes from earlier were already tossed in the back of her car, she was pretty sure Leon had tossed his in hers too. So when they made it to hers, she turned to him, “So my place or yours?”

He shrugged, “I dunno, I’m sort of beat. Figured we could get the food and then head to our own places afterwards.”

“Oh.” The excitement that previously had coated her voice had dissipated when those words left his mouth. “Well, we can wait then. Get it tomorrow or another day. I don’t mind.” 

“Are you sure? You won’t wring my neck for it?”

She gave him a smile that she prayed hid the disappointment that was spreading through her body. “No. If you’re tired then I don’t want to keep you out longer than your body wants to. Work does that enough.”

He gave her a small smile that she could tell showed that he was grateful for it. “I’ll make it up to you. Promise.”

She nodded and leaned in to give him a soft kiss on the cheek, something she always did, but instead of letting her, he pulled away. So once again, she did everything in her power to not let the disappointment show. She cleared her voice as she clicked the button to unlock her car. Grabbing the door handle from behind her she gave him an awkward smile, “I’ll see you later. Let me know when you make it back to your apartment, okay? Snow is pretty bad out there and I don’t want you to not make it home safe.” She opened her door and started to get in, “Don’t want to lose my partner just yet.”

He smiled softly, “I’ll say the same to you.”

“I’ll see you in the morning, try not to drive yourself insane with the lake of me beforehand.”

He snorted as his hand came around to get ready to shut her door, “Whatever you say, dork.”

She opened her mouth to give him a sarcastic retort, but before she could do so, he was shutting her door. And as she watched him walk towards his own, she didn’t choose to ignore the disappointment and hurt that catapulted through her body. She shook her head and started the car. Maybe the thought that someone might have walked in scared him.

She wouldn’t blame Leon if that was it, but it would have been nice if he would tell her. If he would have told her and not made her feel bad for doing what she always does and making him uncomfortable. But as she pulled out of the parking structure she began to wonder when it had happened. Because right after it happened he seemed happy to go get food with her, but in the...maybe 5 minutes tops that it took to get their cars, his mind had changed. Had he seen something and hadn’t told her to not freak her out.

No. Leon wouldn’t do that. He would know that if he did that, it would freak her out more. He knows that, while she trusts him, she will always be cautious of their relationship. She always was. She always felt like the guys she was with could do better than her. And while she wasn’t insecure over Ada or Claire, there was still that...feeling that both gave her. That feeling that Leon has known them for 10 years now. They both knew him when he got dragged into this mess because of Racoon City. That feeling of being so unsure of things because he refuses to talk about things with him and Ada. It will never matter how many times he swears there's nothing with the two of them, she’s not dumb. She knows that there was once. She knows that Ada still has some control over him.

But that control doesn’t cause an insecurity in Y/N. No. It creates something different. Something that she can’t place. Maybe it was jealousy? Because with Ada or Claire, he doesn’t have the rules of their job to deal with. He doesn’t have to worry about their superiors finding out and giving them the choice to break up, get new partners, or, worse of all, leave. Y/N didn’t know what the job would be if Leon wasn’t her partner. 

So if she had to choose any of those, she’d take the break up. She’d rather not be with him than not be with him.

But the feeling that something was going on kept gnawing at her. Even as she entered her apartment. As she took a shower. And as she laid down to sleep. Something just kept nagging at her that there was something more going on that she didn’t know.

--------

December 24th/25th of 2008

Y/N sat with her back to Leon’s chest as they sat in front of Claire's old couch. But even them being so close. His arms around her waist, keeping her securely in front of him. Her head occasionally leaned back, hitting his shoulder, when she laughed. Occasionally she would feel his lips almost ghosting her neck, coming close to kissing it, but pulling away before he did anything.

They had arrived in separate cars. Something she knew had Claire and Chris giving them odd looks. They always arrived together. No matter what happened before. Even if one of them had errands to do before. They would do the errand together and arrive at the place with each other.

But not this time.

No. Leon had some “important shopping” to do that she couldn’t go with him so they arrived separately. She got there nearly an entire hour before him. And he was there for nearly half an hour before he had come up to her and done more than give her a small smile and wave like he had when he entered. That was how they ended up where they were now. 

But something still just felt off.

She still was unable to shake that feeling she got that night in the garage. She still had that feeling like Leon wasn’t telling her everything. That there was something he was lying to her about. She couldn’t even explain the reason for why she still had it. It still was just something she...just simply had. 

And she hated it.

She hated this feeling of...inferiority. It made her feel so small. Something that she always hated. That feeling of being smaller than everything else. That everything and one else was bigger and better. It hadn’t happened in years, not since she had just joined, but that didn’t help her. She had thought that she had gotten over her stupid feelings like this years ago after those moments.

But here she was years later still feeling this way and internally hating herself over it.

“Y/N? You alright? Looked like we were losing you for a moment.”

Her head snapped over to where she heard Chris’s voice and gave a sheepish look. “Sorry. Just thinking about something.” She felt Leon tighten his arms around her for a moment, his silent way of asking if it was anything important. “Nothing important though. Just silly stuff like how it’s crazy that Lee and I got today off. We usually have to work on Christmas and I hate it.”

She felt Leon chuckle, “Yeah, she was complaining about it a few days ago. That and questioning how the hell Claire got Chris to take time off.”

Chris rolled his eyes, “It’s not like I never take time off.”

“But you literally don’t, Chris. You have to be forced to take time off all the time.” Claire laughed, “Back when you were in Racoon City, Jill would complain to me all the time about how she had to put up with you never taking off. Questioned how I put up with it for so many years.”

He rolled his eyes, “You and Jill always are over the top with these things.”

“Chris, I’ve known you long enough now to know you don’t take time off. You’re worse than me.”

Y/N scoffed, “It’s not that you don’t take time off. They just don’t let you because there’s always some ‘possibly world-ending’ thing happening. I’m still surprised I was able to get the time off for Joe’s wedding 2 years ago and Tara’s in April.”

“I bet that since we got today off, you won’t get your sister's wedding off.”

She shot Leon an odd look. “You mean ‘we’?”

“Huh?”

“You just me. We both have off for my sister's wedding. Of course you lied and said it was a friend, but still, you got it off.”

“Oh, yeah, sorry. Guess I forgot for a moment there.”

Y/N nodded and looked back at the siblings, not saying a thing. How could he have forgotten about it? He never forgot those things. Hell, a week ago he had asked her if her sister had finally come up with what guests could wear (she hadn’t by the way).  She started to wonder if there were other things he would forget and those fears just got worse again.

She stayed silent the rest of the night, minus a few, small words of agreement or laughing when it was appropriate or she needed to. She knew that Claire was already suspicious by the way she kept looking at her, but Y/N chose to ignore it. And as it slowly crept towards midnight, she feigned yawns. She had slowly wanted to leave more and more as the night went on. So when it hit 12:05, she stood up, already having removed herself from Leon’s arms.

“I’m gonna go. I’m already starting to get half-asleep and I don’t want the snow and ice on the road to get any worse. I’ll see y’all later.” She leaned down to hug Claire and Chris, “Thanks for the presents you two. And thanks for inviting me, Claire.” 

They both shot her smiles while Claire spoke, “Of course, you’re always welcome to these things. Be safe, alright? Text when you get to your apartment.”

She smiled, “Will do, Claire.” She turned back to Leon and leaned down to kiss his cheek, “I’ll see you on Friday, well tomorrow, okay?”

He nodded, “Drive safe.”

She nodded and walked towards the door, grabbing her keys and jacket from where she left them. She tried to keep calm as she walked to her car. Leon never did that. Even when they were just friends. He always walked her to her car. Always claiming that ‘you never know what could happen.’ She slipped into her car, her feelings all around the place and jumbled up. She didn’t get why this was happening. Why it felt like it was he was trying to pull away from her every chance that he got.

Why was it starting to feel like she was the only one who cared about this relationship?

--------

December 31st of 2008/January 1st of 2009

Instead of Claire’s, the group of them were at Y/N's apartment. But this time her brother, Joe, and sister-in-law, Jessica, were joining them this time. While Leon had helped her get her apartment ready and make sure that they had enough drinks and snacks for everyone, he had hardly said a word to her all night. 

Like now, he was talking with Chris and her brother while she stood in the bathroom that connected to her bedroom, trying to catch her breath. She could hear everyone talking and laughing. She could hear him talking and laughing. Seeming happier with everyone except for her. And now everything with him had her freaked out and unable to focus for more than a few minutes. She knew that eventually someone would get concerned and try to come find her. And while she hoped it would be him, she knew that it wouldn’t be likely. He was out there talking, completely oblivious to her panicking in the bathroom.

She ran a hand over her face. It was ridiculous. She knew it was. She knew that the entirety of this situation was fucking ridiculous. She shouldn’t be getting so bent out of shape over Leon pulling away. It was normal. She always did it. But whenever she does it, it was when she was getting bored in the relationship. 

She ran a hand through her hair and tried not to let out a small scream. She didn’t know why she was acting like this. They hadn’t had a mission in months. She shouldn’t be this freaked out. She should be able to keep her emotions under control. She shouldn’t have to be hiding out in her bathroom, away from everyone, because she couldn’t control how she felt. She couldn’t make sure that her emotions were underwrap before everyone got here. God, she was so fucking pathetic. This whole issue with her was so--

She jumped out of her thoughts when she heard a crash right by her. Her eyes quickly scanned the room and she let out a shaky breath when she saw that it was just the cup that held her and Leon’s toothbrush and paste. She leaned down and grabbed the fallen contents and as she put them back, there was a light knock on the door that caused her to jump.

But then she froze when she heard Leon’s laugh. “Sorry, didn’t mean to scare ya.” She placed the cup back where it always was as he placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. Causing yet another jolt from her. “Hey, you okay?”

She nodded silently, trying to keep her breathing steady. “Yeah. Sorry. I think I’m just getting tired. My body isn’t used to not having to be on edge 24/7.”

She looked up in the mirror and saw that he had cracked a small smile, “Can’t disagree with you there. But you seem genuinely freaked, like after a mission. Are you sure that you’re okay?”

She nodded and turned to him, giving a smile. “Yeah. I am Lee. Promise.” She glanced down at the small watch that laid on her wrist. A watch that he had bought her for her birthday 2 years ago. “Hey, it’s 11:59, we should get back in there.”

“Are you sure? It seemed like you had left for a reason.”

Yeah. He was the reason. But she couldn’t tell him that. Not with everyone out there. Not with the possibility that anyone could walk in when trying to find them.

“Yeah. I’m perfectly fine. I just needed to get away for a moment. You know how I am.” She felt proud of that. She was sure that everyone in that living room of hers knew that about her. Knew that sometimes she had to disappear for a few minutes because everything would just feel so overwhelming.

She stared at him as he studied her face. She knew he was trying to find any indication that she was lying. And either he didn’t or he didn’t mention it to her because he said nothing and gave no indication of suspicion as their friends started counting down. 

Neither of them moved as they heard them going down from ten. They just stayed in her bathroom. It was the closest she had felt to him since Christmas. She moved her hand up to brush some hair out of his face and as their friends got down to one, she leaned in to place a kiss on his lips. She felt his usual chapped lips on her own as the noises of their friends celebrating and the fireworks going off encased her ears. 

As she pulled her lips away from his, she felt a wave of hurt go through her body. A wave that quickly dissipated when she felt his hands on her cheeks and his lips slamming back onto hers. She let out a tiny gasp, something he took as an invitation to slip his tongue into her mouth. She eventually wrapped her arms around his neck and felt him moving them to where the back of her legs met her sink. 

He pulled away for a moment, just to bring his lips down to her neck. “Is this...a new...top?” She hummed in response before she felt him chuckle, “Is that a yes baby?”

“Yeah.” Her voice was soft, just above a whisper.

“I like it. You should wear it more.” He carefully moved her arms so he could take it off. “Same with the perfume, it’s the one you got back when you dragged me to Victoria Secrets, right?” She gave him another hum as a response, unable to say anything as she was scared that she wouldn’t say an intelligent thing.

She sighed as she felt his lips on her body and all of the previous worries drifted away. But, of course it couldn’t last forever as eventually she heard a gasp and Leon pulled his lips away from her body. Her eyes darted over to see her sister-in-law standing there with a hand over her mouth.

“Shit, I’m so fucking sorry. I should’ve known what you two were doing when you didn’t respond. Fuck, I’m sorry. Um, Joe and I are heading out. I don’t wanna overwork my sister too much by watching the kids after she had a long week. But we had fun. I’ll see you later.”

She watched as Jessica left her room and her head fell on Leon’s shoulder. She felt so fucking embarrassed by that. She had been hidden for nearly 30 minutes and then someone came to find her, just to see her making out with her boyfriend. So fucking embarrassing. 

She felt Leon’s chest move as he laughed, “At least we were just making out and not actually having sex.”

She groaned and buried her head in his chest, “I did not just say that out loud, did I?”

She felt him kiss the top of her head, “It’s okay.” He pulled away and she watched as he grabbed her shirt from the floor before he handed it to her. She slipped it on and he kissed her lips again. “You know I love you, right?”

She smiled and looked into his blue eyes, “Yeah, ‘course I do.”

“Good.”

----

The clock that faced her blinked as the time read at her. Claire was asleep in her guest room while Chris was dead on the couch. Leon’s arms were wrapped tightly around her body that was only in one of the random shirts that he had left there. She couldn’t sleep. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t allow herself to fall asleep. Something felt off. Leon tonight. He felt off. She couldn’t understand why this was happening. Why he had been pulling away for days just to do this tonight.

She just couldn’t understand why this was happening.

--------

Y/N stood in front of Leon, shocked out of her mind. What was happening. She thought that they were okay. She thought that whatever he was dealing with the past few days was done. She thought that he had figured it out. She thought that what happened the other night resolved whatever internal issue he was battling.

But no. Here he was, standing in her living room breaking her heart. The one person who she never thought would do it. The person who she had thought was the one. 

But for some reason, she couldn’t find herself to cry. Some reason, she couldn’t let the tears fall. Maybe it was so he didn’t see how badly he was breaking her. Maybe it was so she didn’t feel it herself. She wasn’t sure.

“I’m sorry.” Sorry. After all of that he was...sorry. “You don’t deserve this.” He reached to grab her hand but she jerked it away. “You deserve better than this. Than me. Than our fucked up situation.”

“But Leon, I like it. I love you. I don’t care about the secrets and the lies. I just want you. Leon, please.”

“I can’t.”

“Can’t what?”

“Can’t ask you to possibly give up your job because someone found out! Watch as you have to get reassigned because Hunnigan already confirmed that it would be you. Watch as your life completely changes just so you can be with me!” He ran a hand through his hair, “That’s why we’re done, Y/N/N. Why we have to be. Both in this relationship and in our partnership for work. I already sent in the request for a new partner.”

“Leon.”

He walked to her door, saying nothing until he was nearly out, “I’m really sorry Y/N/N. Truly, deeply, sorry.” 

She stared as he walked out of the door. Out of her apartment. Out of their relationship. Her life.

She angrily wiped the tears that had started to finally fall away and walked to the liquor cabinet that mostly held his alcohol. She opened it and grabbed one of his bottles of whiskey. Angrily twisting off the top, she didn’t even grab a glass and just drank as much of it as she could. 

She stared at the wall and the grip on the bottle tightened as she felt the sting of it going down her throat. But instead of taking another sip, she swung it back and threw it at the wall in front of her. Screaming. She didn’t care if the cops got called. 

She was angry. Angry at Leon. At herself. At everyone and thing. It wasn’t fair that this was happening to her. Especially when she thought that everything was going to be fine. She didn’t understand that even though he called for a new partner they had to break up. They wouldn’t be breaking any fucking rules that way! She didn’t get why he asked for a new partner. None of it made sense.

She felt her knees collide with the floor as she sobbed. It wasn’t fair. They were supposed to stay together. He was the one thing that she felt that she got right in this world and here he was leaving her broken hearted.

She hated it and it wasn’t fair. It wasn’t fair that her mom was right. That no one here would like her and she would end up alone.

She hated it because why did she have to be right?

She hated it because why did she just have to lose the best thing that had ever happened in her life.

Why did she have to lose the one constant in her life for the past 5 years?

1 Corinthians 13:4-8

— Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. it will get personal today. i crave love. i set the bar so low that i wouldn't actually look at this verse while making my decisions. and i want to change that. at this moment i just want someone to touch and flirt with. this is not love. please Lord give me patience, so i can wait for the girlfriend you prepared for me. please stop my bad thoughts about other people. please keep me away from anger. please make me pure again. i want to protect, trust and hope for someone. please Jesus, give me that one person. i know i have to wait for Your timing. but i am asking for a sign that there is a woman for me. amen!

february - scenemo bingo and goth punk bluey fanart because i was awesome. i actually had my birthday (which was also that month) goth bluey themed. i think the art itself is kind of mid now especially bingo but the concept is awesome and more people should see my vision

march - i had no full art pieces :((((( so this is a jarthur doodle where they hold hands after arthur did something DIFFICULT!! i think its pretty cute. but it is just a doodle. sigh.

july - OLD MAN ASH WILLIAMS ?!?!?!?!?!? i remember i was watching ash vs evil dead and felt a little bit too homosexual and needed to get it out of my system. keep in mind this was still before i was insane about evil dead. i frankly think the body and the background suck ass and this drawing is BAD👎

august - laura palmer painting number 1. really quite happy with this. i like her a lot. just not so happy with the background, i think i couldve done it better.

september - laura palmer painting number 2. i actually prefer this one, i put more work into it than the first one? it might not look as good but i was more independent with the colour picking and was doing a lot more of the reference from eye. i also think it looks prettier and i like how the hair turned out :))

october - this was a busy month for me so this is just a cringetober piece. self insert. me as an s-mart employee. UM.anyway.s. i think its cute but definitely my weakest piece on here apart from maybe the bluey art. woah wait i just realised i appear twice on this thing

[thatdebaterguy]

Usually I would go anon but I am at the point where I don't care what people think anymore. I would rather be honest and have these people off my blog than keep doing it in secret.

Anyways, I was scrolling through a post (because I hate myself). Tumblr wouldn't let me put the link for some reason:

This isn't the whole post, but 2/3 of it. It's about how Israel was "tricking" children into picking up bombs that looked like food cans. Someone corrected this in the comment section.

And in response to the correction (there was more than one person correcting):

This is a massive issue I've seen with that side of the conflict. They don't care if the information they spread is true as long as it fits the narrative of "Palestine = weak, helpless, 100% good and pure victim. Israel: evil, colonists, eats Palestine babies for breakfast." And it's almost scary the lack of critical thinking to make sure everything fits into this mindset.

I once corrected someone's mistranslation on Pinterest of all places, where someone said a Hebrew translation was ""May this (bomb) lands on innocent people". It was just the company name. I was attacked and told I was a "genocidal zionist" and there was my favorite, "well it doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's what they mean".

So basically, "yeah it doesn't matter if it's fake information, it fits with MY beliefs, so it's okay."

I hate the Pro-Palestinian cult.

It is genuinely depressing to see blatant misinformation spread, for example I've been given the link to a site that takes supposed quotes from Israeli officials completely out of context, half the time a complete lie, and told it's some kind of proof Israel is the epitome of moral sin, despite being the most equal state in the middle east. I saw this post and saw another one debunking how the imagine has been altered in a misleading way, just as I saw a post of a server room that's linked to a Hamas database under an UNRWA facility, and someone said it powered a solar panel. Keep in mind they didn't lie for the Palestinian civilians, that was to straight up cover for Hamas.

The screenshot of someone calling Hamas 'freedom fighters' is actually scary.

this is the first thing you see when you search for the ideology of Hamas. Yk the worst part? This would be called zionist propaganda just because it says Hamas have committed terrorism, and October 7th happened. These are literal facts though, Hamas are proud of October 7th, proud of killing thousands, kidnapping hundreds, committing acts of terrorism. If you have any sense of morality, you cannot defend Hamas, even if you see them as on the right side or as freedom fighters, their methods alone make them a monstrous organisation. They wear plain civilian clothes in war, a war crime, they have been verified to use civilian buildings for cover, a war crime, they've killed thousands of innocents purposefully, a war crime, they've openly called for the annexation and occupation of Israel, a sovereign country with millions of ethnic Jews who would be 3rd class citizens in a Hamas ruled Palestine.

Israel doesn't want Gaza. They don't want to destroy it, to own it, they wish they never had to hear about it again, let alone invade it to remove Hamas from power. And the fact that people are scared to voice their beliefs against a literal terror group, against misinformation, is insane. You know, the only reason I'm on Israel's side is because when it comes to debates I follow the science, the figures, the statistics, a fixed code of morality and logic, and that leads to me to Israel because they've never instigated a conflict in their entire history, they've voluntarily surrendered land in pursuit of peace, aided the countries that have invaded them, they're by the definition not committing genocide, they're legally and factually in a war of self defence to topple an extremist dictatorial government, the figures show as far as modern urban warfare goes, the civilian-military death ratio is lower than most conflicts, they factually have a historical claim to the land, they built Tel Aviv, built Jerusalem, 400,000 Jews lived the region of Israel before its existence as a modern state, it just all points to Israel.

But I support the people of Palestine, I empathise with them, I want them to be free of the dictators who lead them to this war and suffering they must endure, and I pray they'll get the liberation they deserve. They deserve better than the nightmare of a government that rule over Gaza. And yet none of the Palestinian supporters protest Hamas. They don't realise, protesting against Hamas doesn't weaken the right for civilians to receive aid, because they're forced into this mindset that the Palestinian government and movement has always been one of perfect ineffable morality and one that you must be insanely villainous to even have any contradicting thoughts on. I'm a more conservative guy who's best friend of 4 years recently told me that they're genderfluid, in a polyamorous relationship with a trans man, and have a 'fursona' but since I know they're a person with good intentions in life I support them in finding happiness and getting better. I'd say that makes me fairly open minded, without tooting my own horn too much. But I will never be open to the idea that Hamas have ever wanted what's best for Palestine. Their actions are selfish, their goals are psychopathic, their behaviour is unwarranted, and their care for being a successful governing body is minimal. Gaza, whether prospering before October 7th or not, was legally an independent, sovereign region of the nation of Palestine, who have their own government, constitution, voting system, currencies they operate with, culture, freedom of movement, unless it's to Israel of course, and have been so since Israel pulled out of Gaza.

Israel actually occupied Gaza once. It was better maintained, the people were more looked after. In the years before Israel pulled out of Gaza, the Palestinian economy grew by the largest margin in at least 20 years, and then under Hamas, became incredibly stagnant, with foreign aid being the only thing propping it up. They let unemployment skyrocket despite the opening of more high tech facilities, once again thanks to foreign aid. Now, Israel doesn't want Gaza back, nor should they have it, but when the people of the nationality that Hamas wish to destroy, governed their land even better despite not even being the sovereign owners of that land and just the occupiers, it says a lot. Don't be afraid to speak out against Hamas, since you have no love for the Palestinian people if you don't want them to be free from the suffering Hamas has brought.

My Opinion On Mortal Kombat 12

The good, the bad, and the salty.

Quick disclaimer, I am not at all a professional reviewer, this will not be formatted or written with any sense of professionalism. If you can not handle, openly simping, stupid meme references and jokes, cussing, very strong feminine opinions, or general NRS criticism maybe pass on this one.

First- Spoiler free game play advise:

Kitana's AI in story mode is brain dead, she'll be the easiest fight in the game.

Shao is pretty easy to beat as long as you don't let him hit you.

Hit boxes are wild and (maybe) broken. Basically you're gonna 'miss' a lot of shots you could have sworn you actually hit. Don't be surprised. Just keep attacking and eventually you'll land a hit.

NOW I will be spoiling the story. Sooooo SPOILDERS FROM THIS POINT ON.

The Good:

Kronika wasn't actually part of the story. Not gonna lie, they had me in the first half (I have more to say on this but those belong in the Bad and the Salty list).

Baraka, Bi Han, Reptile, Sareena, and Nitara can get it. Yes I'm being shameless right now. It's my blog.

FEMALE REPTILE! FEMALE REPTILE! (This skin better be available or I will have words)

I don't know if this was intentional, but having Sareena share a voice actress with Sindel was a cute call back to the two being originally played by the same actress during their OG games.

Baraka was really interesting and I hope he come back. He wasn't just some savage monster, he actually had a real personality and goals. It was a great evolution of his MK11 version (but I'll still miss MK11 Baraka). I want to see him progress more and get his own proper story line.

I have opinions about Hanzo in MK12, but I will compliment one thing. His new suit is bad ass. That's the only nice thing I will be saying about this topic.

Bi Han didn't die, I was quite pleasantly surprised.

With the Mortal Kombat competition never happening I believe this means Hydro is canonically alive. So Maybe Hydro in MK13?

Johnny and Kenshi's friendship was wholesome and I loved it. It was really the highlight of the game for me and I'm looking forward to another Johnny/Sonya/Kenshi team up.

The writers actually remembered Johnny's divorce. I'm shook.

Smoke is adorable and got to live through the story. I'm so proud of him and he deserves the world.

Evil Sindel's outfit was 11/10... if only there was a way to unlock it (I'll get to that later)

I like the Special Forces characters, but it was nice to get a short break from them. Gave us some time with other characters. That said I want them in the next game. I'm missing Sonya, Jax, and Kano already.

While I'm not a huge fan of the base skins (they're not bad, just not great) I loved a lot of the alternative skins shown off in the storymode look amazing and I'm hoping they're unlockable.

I was incredibly happy Raiden's old voice actor came back for this game. I'm not sure when he'll get to play Raiden again so it was nice to see him take up the roll one more time.

I liked that you could pick which character you played in the ending.

The Bad:

First thing is first: there are microtransactions. WHY DID I PAY 60 DOLLARS FOR A GAME IF THERE WERE GOING TO BE GOD DAMN MICROTRANSACTIONS?????????? Boon???? Why??? It'd day 1 and there's already god dang microtransactions. Like I guess it's nice that the invasion is available, but charging me 60$ and then asking for more is stupid.

The AI really puts the i in idiot. Basically it's bad. I know I originally mentioned Kitana's AI (since that's who it's the worst with in my opinion) but I also had an issue with Ashrah and Baby Raiden. They will literally walk backwards until they hit the end of the stage, of if they can fly they'll just jump in the air and stay there. Even on the harder difficulties the game felt too easy. I have lost a total of two fights between both the story mode and invasion.

It feels a bit manipulative that the whole 'tournament' that was heavily featured in the trailers only lasted maybe about 1/3 of the actual plot. It was such a nothing plot point, you could probably cut it out and it wouldn't be missed. Yet that was the only real plot point we saw in the trailer.

Jerrod's death is never explained. He was just killed, but apparently by no one of relevance. He just fell and couldn't even get back up.

They REALLY went with Evil Bi Han, which doesn't even make sense. Let me explain, as far as we know Bi Han has no reason to hold the opinions he does. Human opinions don't exist in an echo chamber. His father was against his ideas, his brothers were against his ideas, everyone around him was against his ideas. Where in the hell did this come from???? I would have understood if maybe if Shang Tsung had been slowly manipulating him throughout the game, but Bi Han was already on that 'f#ck them gods' juice since the beginning of the game (which is a mindset I very much indorse). (Okay I just thought about it but what if instead Quan Chi had used Sareena to try and tempt Bi Han over to their side. As in he sends her in infiltrate the Lin Kuei and get close to Bi Han so she can talk him into turning on Liu Kang, but has she spends more time in the Lin Kuei and with Kuai Liang and Bi Han she starts to have a change of heart and kind of has a sort of Mythologies arc where she begins to understand human feelings and gets attached to them. Having her then join the good guys and tries to undo her manipulation on Bi Han. Sorry idea rant. Back to the review.) MY POINT is that as far as we know there is no one who could have influenced Bi Han in this way. It just doesn't make sense why he thinks this. At least with Shang Tsung and Quan Chi it made sense since 1. They were manipulated and 2. Liu Kang actually f#cked them over and they had a valid reason to be mad. Bi Han had no given reason to hate Liu Kang other then he didn't like his clan being under the god's boot (WHICH I MEAN IS KIND OF VALID).

They didn't even have the balls to let Bi Han murder his his own father. "I didn't help save him!" WTF does that mean???? Did Bi Han just wait to long to call 911??? Did Bi Han watch him fall off a cliff? What does that mean?

NRS Writers have yet again created a situation that made me have to sit there and wonder if we were really on the good guys side. There were a few points where the "bad guys" said something that made me pause and be like "wait, let's hear them out". Often times that makes Liu Kang look like kind of a d!ck since he did design this timeline. See this post here for more of my feelings on this. Examples:

Ashrah confronted Nitara and Nitara explained she just wanted to save her people but apparently we're siding with Ashrah, the woman who's magic sword told her to commit murder to "cleanse her soul". Not Nitara, the woman who's people are incredibly ill and at risk of dying (ALSO WHO ASHRAH ADMITTED TO KILLING).

After Sindel tells Rain that he was like a son to her (a relationship we never get to see) Rain made a comment about how Sindel limited him. I actually what to know what he's talking about. He could just be being a salty bitch, but we don't know since this comment is never explained. Plus Sindel in intros has been shown to be rather cruel if she viewed it to be in her benefit, so what Rain was referring to might have happened. She might have nerfed the demi-god if she viewed his as a threat, but we'll never know since this is never explained.

I think Mileena's outfit is too pink. Her color has always kind of been this purplish pink color and I think the color they picked was just too pink and not purple enough. X had this issue too but we're not talking about that one right now.

The whole 2nd half of the plot was honestly a whole mess. It just completely went all bonkers. I don't even have words. It's like they had two different writing teams and switched mid way through the plot with no communication back and fourth. While I'm glad Kronika wasn't back the actual plot twist was somehow worse. It just felt like to much and felt very unsatisfying in the end.

Mileena and Tanya's relationship feels more like Kitana x Jade then Mileena x Tanya. It feel like the writers wanted to do Kitana x Jade but got told no and just wrote Mileena and Tanya in the roles instead.

Hanzo... Now this. I'm not going to repeat myself so to see how I feel about this in context of how it effect Hanzo as a character go here. I will go over some other issues I don't talk about in that post. The fact Kuai Liang's first canonical love interest is Hanzo's dead wife is something so rage inducing I'm not sure how to put it into words. Kuai Liang has never had his own thing, he has his brother's title, his father's powers, he remade his old clan, and now even his wife was another's before she was his. As a long time fan of Kuai Liang the only reasonable response to this I can have is disappointed. I'm just disappointed in NRS's handling of this character and their clumsy recreation of Hanzo rather then just including Hanzo in the game. Even in a new timeline NRS is to scared to try something too new. It's different but not different enough to mean anything. Just an endless circle of the same story they told two timelines ago. I really don't have the words to properly express the storm of unpleasant emotions this plot point causes me. It just sucks.

Sub Zero vs Scorpion has gotten old. This is all.

The Salty:

(This is just things that annoy me personally and I don't really view as actual criticism. Ignore this part if you don't care about mindless ranting)

I don't like this Mileena. She feels nothing like her previous self and I'm just not a fan. There's none of her fun loving, but creepy, personality she had before. I kind of get why but as a hardcore Mileena simp I just don't like the change.

I didn't unlock a single new outfit during storymode and that's very frustrating given the amount of unlockables we got in MK11.

Since when has Bi Han been a blood purest??? That seemed stupid.

I don't like Sindel's story mode outfit. Hers in particular I'm not a fan of.

I hate this version of Ashrah. She seems to self righteous for my liking. Plus her blaming Quan Chi for her sister's deaths when SHE was the one who killed them kind of annoyed me.

Honestly overall 4/10 story wise and maybe I'll post about the invasion later, but I don't know.

favourite snape hcs go 🎤

Hiiii

this is gonna take a while cuz I've been waiting for someone to ask this question for so long- so sorry for answering this post after a while lol

ok so.

he hates coffee, but marking and juggling all his work means it's often the only thing keeping him awake, and my man, he likes to take his coffee with enough cream and sugar to kill a small child. for energy, of course.

he likes to sleep. will commit murder if someone disturbs him.

actually likes marking. something about shitting on teenagers calm him down.

sometimes, he'll take out his old essays and go thru them with red ink. no teenager is as fun to shit on as yourself. except perhaps potter.

pan ace. am not accepting arguments

had sex for the first in the early days after graduation and initiation into the death eaters. hated it. very much.

loves physical touch and so, naturally, will make it impossible for anyone to touch him

has the weirdest possible relationship with Lucius malfoy but like, we don't talk about that.

(They are as close as you get to fucking/killing each other without actually fucking/killing each other. Knows each others darkest secrets but still would kill the other to keep themselves alive sort of close)

has a similar relationship with voldy shorts except, with our resident evil it's like, not consensual? Sort of? idk . My man's into tall dark and creepy ok? except in Lucius's case it's tall blonde and rich/ridiculous but. we don't talk about that.

Severus fucking Snape didnt become friends with Lily fucking Evans cuz she was pretty. nope. Twas cuz ma girl was powerful as heck(like him) and, more importantly, a bitch(like him). You are kidding yourself if ya think their friendship was anything other than that.

his relationship with his parents is a toxic one in that there IS some level of care there, but Tobias is too much of a depressed 30 something man to be a good father and Eileen was too much of a proud hag to be a good mother, and Severus was too much like them to be able to deal with their shit.

a huge part of why he used the mental arts so much was cuz he couldn't handle his emotions easily for the longest time, and would burst at the smallest thing. this was the trait that made him such a good target for bullying. the one trait he could never quite get rid of- just hide, under steel walls and scars that opened far too easily.

after lily died, he occluded to the point of magical exhaustion and ended up collapsing. wrecked his body to the point of him not being able to move for months. this was one of the first, and only things he learned to be kind to himself for, and relaxed with his occlumency shields as much as he could. and then voldy returned, and. well.

he is the Slytherin house's hero. not that he understands why. something about the whole, evil, dark, vampire aesthetic was very appealing ya see.

my man wears heels to look taller. not accepting arguments

his whole outfit was carefully planned. 20s Snape had FUN, I tell you. My man spent YEARS cultivating his whole vibe, from the expressions, to the poetry, to the ROBES- perfection, perfection. have you any idea how much he argued with tailors that, no, he actually didn't give a fuck if the robe he wanted was too tight for pockets. what the actual FUCK do you mean.

the buttons have so much history

his eye colour is actually just. gray, but like my man likes the whole vibe of ✨ obsidian ✨ more so. makes sure to stay around dimly lit areas for maximum effect.

he did actually go to school before hogwarts, but like he couldn't control his magic, so my man would bust the lights and flood the bathrooms and make the chairs hit the teachers he didn't like. The AMOUNT of confounding Eileen had to do to distract the town from their magic- worthy of a book series on its own.

I'm ending cuz this is already so longgg. sorry for answering lateee. ilyy 💜💜💜

Yoooo! Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💚

Thank you to @darthfrodophantom for also tagging me in another post! :)

I have 69 (nice) works on AO3 so there was quite a lot to go through.

1. red in tooth and claw (that’s your fatal flaw)

Summary: Everyone finds out Wes was right in the worst way possible.

Reason: This was the first fic I wrote in phicphight ‘22, my first year of participating for the event. I remember loving writing this in the moment and beginning to flesh out Wes’ character in my style. It was the first time he had a main POV in my fics. It definitely took me out my comfort zone as I had to take Wes, someone who wants his discoveries to be known, and reduce him to this subdued bystander facing the realisation that although he did want to reveal Danny, he never thought it through or considered the impacts.

2. lie like a tombstone (yet secrets will bloom)

Summary: Valerie finds a body in the park thanks to some ghostly flowers, and she never would’ve guessed that it belonged to Phantom. Only, the context around his death sounds.. concerning. Because he died alone. And no one ever reported him missing. But that just barely scratches the surface of Phantom’s secrets.

Reason: This fic is so self indulgent it’s actually ridiculous. 35k+ (and ongoing) words of a corpse au and no one knows au mashup with me trying to keep the mystery up as long as possible. I’ve been working on it for two years now, it’s seen me through college, and who knows how long forever more. I appreciate this fic a lot, because it’s a massive motivator for me to keep writing and reminds me that I am capable of longfics outside of one-shots. The Val and Wes team up was unexpected when it began but honestly one of my fav combinations of characters to write. Of course it’s also a big favourite because it’s a corpse au ❤️🤌.

3. Mask

Summary: Danny never really took a minute to consider what he looked like in Phantom form. He didn’t need to, not really. It wasn’t as if he was scared of what was under the mask. No, not at all.

Reason: another self indulgent fic. It was Ectober 2021 and I saw this prompt and went “yup it’s danno has a HAZMAT hood time”. I loved writing the reveal scene in this the most, when the Fentons and Val realise that Phantom is just this kid with no evil intent (best genre of fics imo). Also the opportunity for a sequel is prevalent—although I’m unsure if I’ll go ahead with that. I put a lot of work trying to get the build up and reveal done smoothly.

4. Forest Fires

Summary: 1967. Nine-year-old Madeleine Walker watched her older brother Daniel Walker die in a lab accident. Years on, she’s certain that Danny Phantom is the ghost of her dead brother. But she’ll never know now, having thrown away the opportunity in a fleeting moment of anger. Meanwhile, a confused Danny sets out to uncover what happened to the uncle he didn’t even know existed. Only the truth is much more than just a simple lab accident.

Reason: although only one chapter and two prequel one-shots at the minute, this AU/series is something I’m very proud of. I’ve planned a lot out for it and I can’t wait to get all the mysteries set and unravelling. Maddie’s portrayal of character I feel satisfied with considering the turmoil over her brother and having to deal with Danny’s changing behaviour. Excited to get this one going again. Also love it because I get to include my OCs 😁.

5. beyond false pretences (we search in plain sight)

Summary: Danny Fenton disappeared without a trace. Soon after, his family followed. Five years on, Sam Manson is determined to figure out why.

Reason: This was my third phicphight fic in 2022 (I seemed to have really liked my fics that event 😆) and I saw the prompt and ran with it. I particularly love writing mystery and suspense so this was very fun to do. Unfortunately it’s not finished but I like what I’ve done so far. I loved putting the easter-eggs within the fic and seeing if readers could spot them. And it was great fun to see people theorising on what they thought had happened to Danny.

I’m going to tag: @jadenoryuu @kawaiijohn @dp-marvel94 @jackdaw-sprite @cleanlenins
