What's your opinion on Henry and Vecna now?
Well my opinion really has always been the same, since before tfs (i was 1 of 5 henry apologists in the fandom before henry theories really blew up on the by/ler-sphere sksbsisussi helloooo besties if u see this u know who u are :33333).
Henrys pov in the show never added up to me and there was always talk about how a 12 year old could even concieve of such horrible things, esp when a huge part of the show is about how children are not born evil. Now that its confirmed that henry was actually 15 and much more sympathetic, it puts into question the validity of henry's retelling (and how he villainizes himself, interestingly enough) plus what exactly is the reason behind the inconsistencies. Which i have already thought about in a rosegate lense but i will not talk about that rn :3 but i am Looking.
Tbh ive always been someone who never understood the "well this character CHOSE to be this way" takes when talking about children/teenagers who were abused or treated badly from a young age. Because really to me, its a portrayal of a tragedy rather than choice. Im not trying to excuse their behavior of course, but the portraying it simply as a choice to be a bad person puts the blame solely on the abused person in question and imo takes away from the real meaningful theme that (joker voice) society, and the people who were meant to support them, to some level has failed them. Operative word being solely, as I'm not saying that people cant be held responsible for their own actions. I'm talking more so in an analysis lense of the themes of the show.
We see this repeatedly shown in the show: concerning behaviors popping up when caretakers (namely parents) fail to unconditionally love their children, so their children develop negative coping behaviors and attitudes to deal with their situations and how those behaviors perpetuate over generations. But really thats not even the case with Henry, as even with Virginia's behavior (tfs) Henry still seemed like a decent kid. Maybe attached to Patty because of his mommy issues but its not a Billy type situation.
Henry is the very definition of never having a chance. From what ive heard of tfs i think he really tried to be good and was good. He was just a normal kid, really. But your own mother betrays you and your stuck in some psychopaths lab basement for 30 years, never actually ever getting to escape and rejoin society before getting blasted into the UD, so there was never really much hope there in his situation. Its also super vague how much control henry really has over his own actions regardless, considering now we know that Henry is not nearly as autonomous as we were lead to believe in the show.
I never really believed honestly that Henry was the big bad of st. You could either be a Mindflayer theory believer or a henward enthusiast (i do like me a mix of both), either way both imply that vecna and henry are not necessarily 1:1.
I'm quite interested in how they take henry in s5, because eventually the party will have to learn that Henry is not what he seemed, then we can get down to the actual truth of the matter.

🍀✨🌼🌺🥊 for ace?
this is an essay (oops) so readmore B') tons of ramblings especially about the concept, origins, and brainstorming of ace below
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?
so when camp entre (truffula flu) was in its death throes, i kinda saw the end coming over the horizon and was already thinking "well, i'm really attached to a lot of the things we've done here what if i made an original webcomic based on that" and so i had to start populating it
well originally i made andrew to be in entre's spot and he was literally deoncelerized entre (until 2019 when he rly became his own thing w just some similarities) and i'm literally swagtre-obsessed til i die so i was like well obviously i want to recreate a similar dynamic so i literally made ace to be andrew's love-interest and foil. that's why i include swag as one of his inspirations and it's..kinda obvious too. but trufflu swag-mod was fine w the obvious inspiration so it's all good
it was like a decade ago i did this so things are fuzzy but i remember when things really Hit me was when i remembered(? or someone mentioned? i forgor. just basically i ended up watching) Ferris Bueller's Day Off and it literally smacked me in the face like i know Exactly what i want to do for this character now. i threw in some eddy from eene and kuzco from emperor's new groove and boom. i had him.
(i cant find my original drawings of him rn but he just. looked like some Dude at the beginning lol)
✨- How did you come up with the OC’s name?
now we get to the next part of ace's development. so when i made him he was kinda just..on the backburner but! i got the idea to try and put him in thneedville/thornville high and develop him there, but i Also wanted there to be more girl charas in the au and i was like "well i think his personality would be really interesting in a girl chara" so i made him a girl for my concept for that au
Tumblr media
him and his twin (was gonna be run by spike/rocky's mod) they were Ace and Anna (i think..) he still has the kinda original look here even if i made it a bit more feminine. he also doesnt have a twin anymore. i joke he absorbed her in the womb and that's why he's so lucky.
bc the thing i kept was when i originally made him (cis male), his name was gonna be Dwayne and he just chooses to go by Ace bc its a cooler name. and when i made him a girl his name was gonna be equally embarrassing so he..still ended up going by Ace. (i kept it. it's his deadname now LMAO) bc after the highschool au was a Flop for me, i was like well no i want him to be a guy again but decided to make him trans bc i didnt have a trans chara yet and i thought it was Time, especially as a trans man myself, to have a chara with those sorts of experiences like me :3
i was attached to the name Ace bc 1. its fkn cool 2. i always knew i wanted him to be asexual so. the puns 3. there's a lot more puns to be made w a name like Ace and it just fit his demeanor and stuff and the way he loves doing stuff with cards (cardtricks, poker, etc) there's a lot of weight on his name being Ace and i love it
his full name is Ace Dale Miller. and it was meant to sound redneck af. being someone born n raised in mississippi, i know the culture very well LMAO and so his middle name is bc his dad (regardless of being born afab) gave him that middle name bc of Dale Earnhardt. and Miller comes from the beer of the same name. bc that was a thing i wanted was his discontent and disconnect from his roots but never fully escaping them
🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)
in his mainverse (zombie apoc comic whenever that happens) i keep him early-mid 30s and typically that's the age-range i default to and have done the most to Set Up for. i like him being old enough to make a name for himself and be Set (before whatever plot happens to tear it all apart) and also being in that age but having the tendencies of a manbaby. it's funni to me
however in the cult au i want to eventually get running on a blog, he's going to be a senior in high school and being a teen is the general age-range i go for for that au
🌺- Do they have any love interest(s)?
i'm a chronic multi-shipper especially with my own ocs, so he's had flings with a lot of my friends' and former-friends' ocs, but the main chara i default to (and is canon in his canon universes) is Andrew :3
he was literally created to go with him so. ya.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
exposes my obvious swagtre-redraws but acedrew. the Original Vision
but like i said i'm always down to clown with any oc with him at any time. he's just hard to love and hard to get to realize he loves. so everyone has to be prepared for that LMAO
🥊 -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?
his favorite things to do: be right, be correct, other people be wrong but not him, mobile games like candy crush, poker, card-tricks, darts, billiards, blackjack, craps, you get the idea he likes to gamble and do stuff you find in bars, he also likes singing, he also likes getting his way by any means necessary like it's a thrill for him to outplay and even manipulate other people so that things end up in his favor when luck isn't already working for him, he likes to show off but only when it works and people fawn over him for being so cool and skilled. oh yeah he also lowkey likes pranks and trolling ppl but he doesn't do it a ton? so i wouldn't call him A Prankster, but he does enjoy it.
he hates doing things that are the opposite of all that. like he hates being wrong, loathes losing, he hates being bored, hates getting dirty, hates too much manual labor, hates being inconvenienced especially in the smallest ways (but he does like a Challenge so this isn't the same thing as that), he hates emotions especially confronting or even recognizing his own that aren't happy good time emotions, he hates crying (him or other ppl)
the thing about him is he complains and bitches and moans about the smallest shit but if something Big and Serious were to happen to him either emotionally or physically, he'd play it off like he's fine. he's okay (he promises). like he'll whine about a paper cut all day but catch him with a mortal wound tearing through his middle and he'll hide it and march on til the blood-loss gets him. he's just That Guy.

I love your second chance au so far!! Do you have any other info on it?
! i do indeed!! its pretty much a completed au actually, its timeline is complete, i just didnt have plans to release it All in drawing form since just the parts i posted seemed enough
volo in the present day is a librarian. its a simple quiet job where he doesnt really need to interact with people too much, plus his obsession with research translates into a general love of books so he'll often stay after hours when he's supposed to have closed up just to read. he's still very good at the whole fake nice guy act so his few co-workers love him and think he's the best senior the library's ever had but he's sitting there like "they don't know i tried to end the world once"
i havent thought about his team much but i imagine to lower suspicion and not draw attention to himself he strays from using the same pokemon as cynthia. he's already been asked if he's related to her a few times and he's just had to try pass it off as a coincidence so people stopped asking. he keeps using the togepi line though they're his lil buddies and he adores them actually
the au's timeline is simple. volo gathers together emmet, barry and dawn to go find a way to reach hisui to bring back ingo and lucas so that volo doesnt have to keep seeing their names pop up and get reminded of how he Failed so bad at his original plan. its just salt in the wound to keep seeing lucas's face after volo vowed all those years ago to keep trying to meet arceus, but he still hasnt succeeded 200 years on.
at first, volo tells them barely anything. he doesnt even explain why he knows ingo and lucas are stuck in the past. so combined with his grumpiness around them they all initially distrust him, especially emmet who's just become a cool uncle and was trusted to protect barry and dawn. this trio's general cheeriness eventually rubs off on even volo and he cant help softening up after a while of traveling. thats where the guilt sets in for him, really slowly, he doesnt even realize he's getting too attached for his own good until its too late and now suddenly he's starting to develop Empathy again. so eventually he'll at least say he's from an ancient sinnohan lineage that granted him immortality and thats why he knows where ingo and lucas are. hard to believe at first but also dawn remembers that one story about the immortal guy in kalos so like. this might as well be happening
they find a way to timetravel eventually, they track down the lake guardians to (safely, unlike team galactic) summon dialga. a little before he lets them go to hisui, its been so long since they started travelling and the guilt's chipped away at him so much he comes clean. admits the whole past ordeal with giratina and why ingo and lucas were taken was because of him - ingo was direct interference since it was his rift that pulled ingo through, and even arceus itself was forced to call the only person strong enough to stop him, lucas, into hisui. he expects them to hate him after that and was fully ready for it but, while they're shocked and angry, they... still want to be friends with him. they've come to understand volo's changed for the better since his hisui days, they've travelled with him long enough to know that for sure and its not just volo being really good at the happy chirpy friendly facade. they dont forgive him for past deeds, i mean can you really excuse trying to wipe out the Entire Universe, but they at least give him a much needed second chance (roll credits)
emmet, barry and dawn get to reunite with ingo and lucas, everyone goes home. from there i was actually tossing up two ways volo could go: one becoming a researcher again, maybe moving to other regions to help out there. the other becoming a pokemon trainer, pokemon journeys are all about broadening your horizons and connecting with others so volo could benefit from it probably. also cmon he has three friendship evolution pokemon, even if he used to call himself a "wielder" he probably actually cares about his pokemon a lot very deep down. maybe emmet even invites him to be a special guest final opponent on the multi trains with him sometimes.

I just cant get over how…genuine kit and joe’s friendship is like some ppl think just bcos they’re not super duper nice to each other or overly idk…friendly in a sense that they’re always hanging out and attached at the hip, it means that what they have isnt real? which doest make sense to me because whenever i see them interacting its just…warm? and its like what you see is what you get, theres no pretending for the public to promote the show :) seems like the way their relationship developed was very organic as well from awkward moments to being as close as they are now sorry for the rant i saw an edit of them and was feeling 🥲
I guess I am one of those few people that didn't actually think 'they don't like each other very much' after seeing early HS interviews. I thought they were really good friends that are comfortable enough to banter with each other because I have friends like that. I became sure about it when I saw in one interview where kit said nice things about Joe, that really came from his heart then he said "no I take it back" because maybe it striked to him that he was being very nice, and he wanted to go back to making fun of Joe, and Joe did something similar, I actually had posted that video weeks ago, captioned it 'this pretty much sums up their friendship' lol. Although Joe used to not hesitate often, he said what he had in his mind in other interviews.
Joe used to say he's never this nice to me lol. Right now what's happened is, they've reached the stage where they can openly compliment each other without saying it through insults, and make it all chaotic and stuff. I'm not saying they were very comfortable at the start like they are now, but their relationship has definitely progressed since the HS release.

I think I finally figured out why the episode "Lethal Inspection" bothers me so much, or more accurately how it tries to emulate the success of Jurassic Bark's ending and ultimately fails to deliver the same emotional gutpunch it did.
In Jurassic bark, we see Fry find the remains of his beloved pet from the past, and over the course of the episode we see him put himself through hell to get it back from the museaum, and later bringing him trying to bring him back to life, meanwhile neglecting his relationship with Bender.
This establishes two things: 1. Fry is still extremely attached to his past life where just the possibility of bringing back SOMEONE to his new life is something he will commit himself to 100%
2. For all of Bender's in your face attitude and claims he wants to kill all humans and how he doesn't need anyone, the moment he gets even the slightest hint of losing someone is enough to make him act like a small, scared child.
The episode intercuts with flashbacks to Seymore's life with Fry and what happens after Fry gets frozen. This not only fleshes out the world of Futurama, but it also gives light on WHY Fry is so obsessed with this dog, as it was the only character who knew him well enough to know what happened to him.
Then comes the ending. The tension between Bender and Fry comes to a head and then gets resolved by Bender redeeming himself by putting Fry's happiness before his own. Meanwhile Fry finds out that Seymore lived for a long time after he got frozen, which makes Fry come to the entirely reasonable conclusion that Seymore lived a full life.
The emotional gut punch comes from Seymore having never actually moved on from Fry, and while his decision was made from a healthy place, it results in Seymore living to the age of 15 waiting for Fry to come home. Its a situation thats heartbreakingly beautiful and not something you would expect from the silly future simpsons show. Its one that personally, still makes me feel things to this day.
On the other hand, theres Lethal Inspection. An episode that fails to set up for an emotional payoff, or even keeps the suspension of disbelief for long enough to have a surprise emotional twist be effective.
Firstly, it immediately contradicts what has already been established in the worst way possible. It reveals that this entire time Bender has been (or at least THOUGHT he was) immortal with the excuse of "I was just pretending to be scared all those times" which annhilates the suspension of disbelief.
Then it does something cool. It puts Hermes and Bender, two characters who havent had a whole lot of interactions, together for an international adventure, giving Hermes another chance to show off his skills and connections as a bureaucrat and the both of them develop a sort of chemistry.
At the end, Bender has to come to terms with his own mortality, and honestly had it just ended there, with maybe Hermes having to step out of his comfort zone as a cold bureaucrat to comfort his friend and coworker, that honestly wouldve been great.
But instead we get this twist that HERMES was actually the inspector that let bender go and it made him quit being an inspector.
Im gonna unpack all this now
Firstly Im just gonna let the continuity of baby bender slide. As far as Im concerned, the growth cycle of robots has basically just been a bunch of off the cuff jokes so its clear its a "dont think about it too hard" situation
This is the first and only instance of Hermes bucking the system that he's been a happy cog in his entire life. This would be fine, even GREAT if they had simply had more build up to it.
Its implied to be this lifechanging event for Hermes as he leaves the robot factory. This falls flat considering that Hermes, up until this point, has been a cold man who treats even other humans as disposable assets. Having a very humanizing moment for a character like this can be effective but you cant just randomly throw it out there, never to be mentioned again.
It establishes an undeserved connection between these two characters despite this basically being the only time they ever really interact for an extended period of time.
The Audience has never really been given reason to CARE about these "characters" as they, with a only a few exceptions like Hermes coming to terms with his shortcomings in Bender's Big Score, have mostly been vessels for joke delivery rather than fleshed out characters while Fry, Leela, Amy and Kiff have gotten the brunt of character development.
What barebones character growth it DOES have is Hermes proving that people like him ARE useful in getting things done, gets immediately contradicted by showing him acting NOT like a bureaucrat
Ultimately any emotion this scene has is based off pure coincidence. We aren't given any sort of idea of how the realization that HE was the one who let Bender slip through the cracks actually affected him as a person. Hell if anything it might've been MORE impactful if the inspector just turned out to be a friend of Hermes who showed more humanity than Hermes ever could
Now what should they have done in my opinion?
First off, instead of a "Bender takes Hermes on an adventure" episode, just commit making it a Hermes episode. Instead of doing the dumb "Sithal War" bit, just have Hermes waking up and follow him through his morning, clearly feeling unhappy with his life and who he's become. This would also be a great oppertunity to give LaBarbera some focus, instead of another 'shes looking for any excuse to leave Hermes for Barbados Slim' joke, have some genuine relationship drama as she ALSO isn't happy with how Hermes has become. Have Hermes respond in a cold, tired manner that only makes things worse.
Take that and follow the same general beats, except without the whole "Consiousness backed up to the cloud" and instead have Bender flaunting how he's not going to die of old age, only to find out that his self-repair functions are faulty. What THIS would do is have Bender face his newly found mortality without cheapening his fear of danger.
From here you have your adventure to mexico as Hermes dips his toes into his old life. Maybe drop much more subtle hints that Hermes has been to this town before as he somehow knows how to get around and where to find the factory. If questioned he could lie and say "I went to a calculator expo here one time" or something.
Then have the big reveal, but FOLLOW UP ON IT. Show that the whole experience has serve as a brief reminder of the idealistic young man he once was and then have there be CONSEQUENCES for it. Make the opening super melancholy so you can contrast it now with him going home with that spark relighting his humanity. Instead of trying to force an emotional moment with a sudden twist and music that implies innocence and youth, give the characters room to breath and let the audience form an emotional connection with their plight.

Might as well hope on the bandwagon. May I please request a Father Xiao scenarios? Maybe his child can be a half-adeptus like ganyu (Child auto-corrected to Childe when I was typing this xD)
A/N: took me awhile to think of a Xiao hc cuz I was tryna choose between some scenarios AHWHEGW Also SAME, MY PHONE AUTCORRECTS INTO CHILDE ALL THE TIME AHAHAGAGSG AND YES XIAO HAVING A HALF-BLOOD CHILD EEE NGL HE GONNA BE EXTRA PROTECTIVE AHADHJADGS I’m so excited for this ehehh. Also tyvm for the req!!! I hope you enjoy this anon!! Btw this was supposed to be for three charas but I got carried away with xiao so ahah,.... Woops =w=;;
𝙵𝚊𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛! 𝕏𝕚𝕒𝕠 x 𝙶𝙽! 𝙲𝚑𝚒𝚕𝚍! ℝ𝕖𝕒𝕕𝕖𝕣
Tumblr media
.      ﹢ ˖     ✦      ¸ . ﹢  °  ¸.    ° ˖ ・ ·̩   。 ☆   ゚ *   。 ☆ ✦˖
Having a child, with his own blood running through your veins, you being the spitting image of him- Was the last thing Xiao could ever imagine ever happening to him.
It’s understandable that he was really shocked to know you are his. Xiao is, after all, the Conqueror Of Demons. He is more than used to being in battle, always being on high alert and ready to slash any enemy down since it isone of his duties as the Vigilant Yaksha who protects Liyue.
Xiao was very cautious around you. With your small and fragile body, he feared that even touching you was enough to kill you. The Wangshu Inn keeper had to teach him ‘how’ to hold you because Xiao’s fear of holding you might just make him stay ten feet away from you at all costs.
He watches over you from afar, always ready to strike at whatever dares to bring you harm.
Though, most of the time, the yaksha is always leaving you to Verr Goldet’s care so he can fulfill his duties. It was fine at first- Until Verr had to talk to Xiao about it. He told him that he shouldn’t be too focused  on that job. 
She told him the possibilities of his constant negligence of you, she told him you might grow “Deprived From Fatherly Affection”. Xiao was shocked of course, he didn’t really know that. 
He felt guilty, he was so blinded by not wanting to inflict any form of harm on you, he didnt expect that it’ll inevitably lead you to growing some unwanted mindsets and habits.
Xiao isn’t really one for affection, there’s no need to explain that. Majority of his skills are more on the ‘slaughter’ and ‘exorcise’ expertise.
Regardless, he is not just a protector of Liyue now, he is a ‘father’ now. Specifically your father. This new responsibility isn’t something he will run away from.
Don’t expect much from him though. Xiao is still hesitant to some extent, he’s trying to figure out how he will interact with you.
��Unlike him, you’re fragile. More fragile than glass. He’s afraid of exerting accidental force that will lead him to hurting you. You’re just too small- so small can’t even reach pass his knees(Please this yaksha is just overthinking too much)
Baby steps, that’s what he’ll do. Slow and steady so he wont be too overwhelmed.
He starts off by simply talking to you, maybe even playing with you for a bit with enough begging. Xiao slowly got used to handling you as time went by. Verr was even suprised at one point when she saw Xiao handling you during your tantrums. 
Xiao made good progress with you. He didnt even know that he was unconciously getting attached to you, he didnt know that he adored your presence. He didn’t realize that he gets a little frustrated when he needs to leave you behind. Xiao developed his ‘father instincts’ to such a level to the point that he sometimes wished his Yaksha responsibilties were less demanding.
When you are trouled with nightmares- Xiao will put some stuff to wardoff evil. Though, he also heard that child mortals are more effectively comfoted if they are sung a lullaby, so he’ll do that. Just... Don’t tell anyone else or that will be your last (maybe)
The immortal sometimes even comes home with new clothes since he knew that children grow and he wouldn’t want to see you struggling with the small fit ofyour clothing. He also makes sure to put some spells on them too to ward off evil.
 Xiao unconciously spoils you, his mind always drifting; ‘Maybe they’ll like something like that. Mortal children I’ve seen are fond of those stuff’.  Naturally, he’ll make a way to afford that small gift for you. If he cant, then he’ll just learn how to make it himself.
He loves you, he just doesnt know how to convey that. Being an adepti, being raised as a machine for war- Love wasn’t something he is great at. But even if it’s that, he’ll still strive for you secretly. Xiao will no doubt make the most descreet efforts to adore you. He still doubts himself even after all the progress he’s made in becoming close to you.
“Silk Flowers!” You squeel in delight as you spotted a bouquet of it from afar. You dash off from Xiao’s side, making the adepti startled and call out your name.
But still you were a child, of course you just kept running and running until the ground beneath you rumbled at what seems like caused from footsteps. Your feet wobbled and almost knocked you off of your feeting. Then it stopped, a huge shadow looming over your small figure. You look up only to have the color of your face drained.
“D-Daddy!” You cried out in absolute horror, falling down to the ground. You were terrified, how could you not? Monsters were real, and one of those monsters was about to murder you in cold blood. “Daddy! Help!”
Just at the beast was about to swing it’s flaming axe towards you- The  wind shifted, as if slicing through the air and knocking back the mitachurl.
“How dare such filthy demon dare to even make their presence in front of my child, let alone even dare to strike!” Xiao growled, his eyes flaming gold from raw fury as he walked with the air dancing violently around him. “ I’ll make you pay”
Xiao’s voice was flooded with resentment, his primodial jade radiated as it felt it’s master’s sudden abundance in power. He spun it as his Yaksha mask formed in his face. At the roar of the enemy, Xiao leapt forward, striking the demon in overwhelming speed. He moved so fast it’s too the point the mitachurl wasn’t given any chance to react. But was it done? No, not even a little bit. That demon frightened you to the point your voice faltered in calling him. He has seen you in tears but never to this extent. Xiao was fuming as he plunged down, his anemo spears stabbing the enemy with no hint of sympathy. 
When he finally finished the kill, Xiao’s mask disintegrated and immediately walked to your crying state. He clicked his tounge, feeling a huge pang in his heart as he saw you this disheveled.
“Da-daddy!” You wailed, reaching your arms out for him desperately as your tears clouded your eyes. “Waah!”
He wanted to scold you, he really did. But the sight of you crying like this made the words stuck in his throat. Xiao instead lifted you in his arms, letting you bury your face on the crook of his neck and sob freely. You soaked his shoulder and Xiao didn’t complain, he just rubbed your back to let you know he is there.
“Does anywhere hurt?” His nonlachant voice rung in your ears softly, stealing your attention. “If there is, better tell me now or those wounds will cause  further damage in you.”
“[Y-y/n] is bad.” You hicupped. “[Y/N] is so bad daddy is now ou-ouchie. Daddy now hates [Y-Y/N]”
“Hate? You mortals have odd ways of thinking” Xiao sounded a little rough, making you flinch. “Don’t be ridiculous, I would never bear such hostility towards you. Moreover, I’m not hurt. I’ve lived for thousands of years, pain is something minimal for an adepti such as myself.”
He scoffed.
“On the other hand, your life is counted by only one hand. You have yet to experience what life will truly bring you.” Xiao’s voice started to soften bit by bit as he softly squeezes your small body towards him more “However, I am your father. If darkness decides to crawl at your feet and even when you are frigthened of what’s ahead- Call out my name. I’ll always be there.”
“Da-daddy promises?” You look up to stare at his amber orb. “Daddy will make monsters go bye-bye?”
“Yes” He simply answered. “Now stop your noisy crying, we’re going back to eat.”
He appears cold, his way of talking always straight to the point, but still he loves you. Adeptus Xiao, the guardian yaksha, his power will not simply be used in order to slaughter the darkness creeping around Liyue. With his Vision and might as Alatus, the Golden-Winged King,... He will protect you at all costs and raise you no matter how he is troubled regarding his difficulty in making much of emotions.
You are one his greatest gifts, a treasure he will sincerely hold in his heart forevermore. It doesn’t matter if his karmic binds attack him, he will venture out of it for you. 
A/N: AIGHHTT AAAA ITS MY FIRST TIME WRITTING FOR XIAO HNNN, Did I do good??? AAAA I DUNNO AHDKSGF. I hope you all liked it hngghhhh ;___; Also I’m sorry for being inactive a lot AAAAA, school is starting to get mre and more demanding. I have more hcs upcoming so dw! I wont end up completely turning into a dead ghost!

Too Sweet
A/N: just a little something I thought of and couldn’t get out of my head. Enjoy
Genre: Fluffy fluff
Pairing: Bakugou Katsuki x Reader (can be seen as platonic or romantic)
Gender-neutral reader. Let me know if I made a mistake
Tumblr media
You, Katsuki, and Izuku were childhood friends.
You knew Katsuki practically since birth,
Your mothers being really close friends and colleagues.
Spending your childhood years at the Bakugou house was always entertaining. 
The two of you were, in Mitsuki’s words,
‘Attached at the damn hips’
You met Midoriya later in life.
Yet he easily fit into your duo with no issues.
Even after quirks developed, 
(and quirks that didn’t develop)
You were still pretty close to both of them,
Even if Katsuki and Izuku weren’t close to each other anymore.
However, you still tried to keep the peace as much as you could.
And it worked, for the most part.
You still didn’t understand Bakugou’s hatred,
So you forced yourself to be the middle man to keep them separated. 
And it was exhausting. 
You were practically at your wit’s end with them.
Until the three of you were lucky enough to get into U.A’s very own Hero Course.
You weren’t sure what had happened between them all this time during school,
Yet by the end of your first year and second rolled around,
They were getting close again.
So that’s why you found yourself in this situation;
Sandwiched between them on the common room couch, 
During a game night with the rest of the class.
Right now you were watching Kaminari screaming guesses at Mina, 
Who was desperately drawing on a large paper pad. 
A sudden buzzing from your phone broke your attention from the amusing sight,
You fish it from your pocket and open your messages,
You weren’t surprised to have Mitsuki texting you,
Throughout the years you thought of her as a second mother.
Yet you were surprised at the video and its description,
‘Hey munchkin, check out what I found. Looks like my son has always been a little shit.’
You laugh and draw the attention of your friends.
“What the hell are you laughing about?”
“Auntie Mitsuki sent me a video.”
“Hah? What is that old bat sending you?”
You press play and immediately see you, Izuku, and Katsuki as young kids.
Oh my gosh is that you guys as babies?”
Pausing the video, you turn to find Kirishima leaning over the couch behind you.  
His words caught everyone’s attention and they squeezed in next to him to try to take a peak.
“DONT PLAY THAT SHIT FOR PEOPLE TO SEE!”
“But I wanna watch it Kaachan!”
“I DON’T CARE WHAT WANT, DAMN DEKU.”
Rolling your eyes, you hold it in a way for everyone to see and press play from the beginning.
All three of you were sitting next to each other.
You were lying on your stomach, swinging your legs while coloring an AllMight Coloring Page,
Izuku sat similarly watching in interest (his own AllMight was already finished),
Katsuki sat crossed legged and was coloring his own page, 
Rather he was scribbling on it with earnest.
“Kids, whose ready for some cookies?”
Masaru comes onto the screen, holding a plate of cookies.
You and Izuku sit up excitedly, 
Katsuki looks disgusted as Izuku accidentally kicks the crayon he wanted to use away.
Before he could yell, you grab his arm and smile,
“Kaachan, stop coloring, and let’s eat cookies!”
His face turns red, and he puts his hand in your face to push you away,
“Yea okay get off of me already.”
The camera follows as you three trot to the low table.
You each sit, grab a cookie and chow down.
Katsuki is frowning as he stares at his cookie,
His eyes glancing back and forth between his and your own.
You give him a weird look and bring your cookie to your chest,
“You have your own, Kaachan.”
“Yours looks good.”
“They’re the same!”
Katsuki pouts,
You pout,
And a staring contest ensures.
Masaru tries to coax his son down but he doesn’t budge,
So reluctantly you hold out your cookie for him to take a bite
“Just a small bite though, okay?”
He takes a bite from the same spot you did before,
Mitsuki can be heard coo-ing from behind the camera
“(y/n)-chan is so sweet~ say thank you brat.”
Katsuki stares at the camera(well his mother behind the camera),
Confusion all over his face.
“They’re sweet?”
“Just like the cookies!”
Masaru says with a smile.
You giggle.
Izuku grabs another cookie,
And before anyone had a chance to stop it,
Katsuki had leaned in close,
Throws his arms around you,
And bites your cheek.
You whine out in surprise and pain, 
Izuku gasps, 
And Masaru tries to pull his son back.
“Katsuki Bakugou you little brat, leave them alone!”
“But mom you told me they were sweet!”
Bakugou is glaring(pouting really) at the camera, 
You wipe your cheek and make ‘ick’ noises as his spit gets on your hand.
“Kaachan you’re so mean!”
“Huh? It’s not my fault! You don’t even taste sweet like a cookie!”
Katsuki’s eyes widen as he sees you grow sad,
“I don’t?”
“N-no, uh, you taste better than a cookie…”
“Really?”
“I wanna try!”
“No way Izuku, only I can!”
The boys begin to bicker and the camera shakes with Mitsuki’s movement.
“Nobody is biting anybody! Katsuki, you can’t just bite people like that, alright?”
“... well what if I-”
 The last of the video comes to a halt, 
Not before your screeching is heard and Bakugou is shown, 
Sticking his tongue to lick your cheek.
The rest of the class is silent as the trio as everyone takes a moment to process what they saw.
Then the fun begins.
Everyone begins to gang up on Katsuki,
They call him cute and adorable,
The boys(we know which boys)
Making jokes about wanting him to check to see if they’re sweeter than cookies.
You and Izuku are the only ones sensible enough to not poke the bear,
Although you’re desperately holding back a laugh and Iuzku is red in the face.
Kaminari makes a dumb joke about how he can buy you a cookie costume and you cant control the laughter that tumbles from your lips. 
Katsuki snaps.
He stands and uses his fists for show,
Threatening everyone to shut the hell up and leave him alone.
He goes to walk away and you grab at his arm,
Before he can shrug you off you smile teasingly at him.
“C’mon Kaachan, you can’t be mad. I’m better than cookies--who hates cookies?”
He blushes,
The class laughs,
And your face is shoved into the couch cushion before he stomps away.
You sit up with a grin,
You know he can’t be upset for long.
You’re too sweet after all.

Here i am getting involved AGAIN in fandom discourse.
I see a lot of "Stolas only hinted about liking Blitzø for his body!".
Narrative wise its obvious theres more between the two. Maybe not DIRECTLY from Stolas nor as obvious as for example Blitzøs feelings. But Stolas literally put his status, image and marriage on the line for Blitzø. As well as letting him borrow the book Blitzø needs for I.M.P
Stolas also saves Blitzø and the rest of I.M.P from the FBI compound n looses his SHIT. I can understand why someone would say tht the writers should have eased into Stolas feelings more and I can see why some would think it was just suddenly THROWN at their faces but i think given the two characters we are dealing with and how we ALL obviously knew the writers intentions and where the narratives been leading us up to its ni shock tht this episode was romantic angst for the two. These two characters are FUCKED UP.
Blitzø has a huge inferiority [probably stemming from trauma] as well as scared of being "chained" to one person and fear of abandonment. Hes also a imp, the "lowest" class in hell. Throughout the series we see that imps are treated less than.
Meanwhile Stolas is in a loveless(?) Marriage which he probably stays in because he LOVES Octavia. From the first ep we KNOW he would do ANYTHING for her. Hes a clumsy dotting out of touch father so ofc the question arises to us the audience of WHY he would put tht at risk by having a affair w/ a IMP none the less. Unless? He has strong feelings for Blitzø when his daughter asks him about Blitzø hes mute because maybe at the time he cant or doesnt rlly KNOW what him and Blitzø are. Maybe something about Blitzø when they first met attracted him enough to risk it and slowly Stolas developed feelings for Blitzø. But hiw is he suppose to be move OBVIOUS tht he want something more?
Blitzø has been showed to also be cold and think of fucking Stolas as a "job", so how can Stolas a member of high society in hell pit his heart, marriage and status on the lije for a IMP that seems to think tht just fucking him is a chore/job. Obvi, we know as thw audience that its just Blitzøs commitment and attachment issues but Stolas doesnt.
I think a turning point for them both was episode 6. In which Blitzø finally came in terms that he feels something for Stolas but as its obvious in the narrative he still SUPPRESSES IT.
An for Stolas I think that episode help "scare" him into realizing the hold Blitzø has on his emotions (aka iconic Stolas loosing his shit and defending I.M.P scene).
This episode (ep 7) was Stolas turning point in a way. He has to see the ramifications of his cheating by loosing his family as well as the social stigma that he has to face for loosing it all for Blitzø. He has to take into consideration why he did it for and towards the end of the night when he ask Blitzø for quality time or cuddeling its both him making the statement to himself (as well as awkwardly hinting to Blitzø) that he wants something more w/him, a relationship.
But heres the crutch! Blitzø and Stolas are highly prideful and care about their image. Blitzø because of his inferiority complex, self hate and Stolas because hes held to a standard of being above it all as high nobility in hell.
Being together with Blitzø(and Blitzø) being with Stolas would hurt BOTH their prides. Blitzø would think (an probably would) be seen as just a imp who slept his way to the top (think striker ep where he shows shame almost) and Stolas would be shamed for loosing it all for an imp (aka halloween episode w/Asmo).
They both need to deal with their issues before even talk to one another about WANTING more between their arrangement. Because rn their both accident hurting each others invicible wounds but there's HOPE, Stolas doesn't blow up but is GENTLE with Blitzø and Blitzø is TRYING to be gentle part (aka his now right now instead of the usual fuck off) .
Either way i feel bad for both of em because their just broken messy ppl trying to love and have something healthy like Millie and Moxy (their relationship foil) but they have to deal with their own baggage BOTH if they ever want a CHANCE at that.

So now that I have digested tbobf season finale and the series as a whole I have some things to get off my chest!...As can be expected: SPOLIER WARNING!
First things first. This show went a drastically different avenue then I anticipated and many people are either totally fine or a little feisty about it. Here's my opinion. I really enjoyed that the mandalorian (din djarin), ashoka, grogu, and other characters from different series made an appearance. But let's first talk about the character boba fett specifically.
Many people complain boba fett didn't have enough time in his own show and to an extent I agree. However, being completely honest, the first few episodes of tbobf I felt myself saying "where is this heading and why?". I like boba fett in the prequel, the mandalorian, various other spin offs, and of course the originals but I found his story, though thoroughly explained in the beginning, the motives for all his actions were unempthized or confusing to viewers. It felt like the writers depended on the audience's previous love for this iconic character opposed to making a more substantial character development. For example, let's take the mandalorian. He started off a character we knew nothing about. During his series he not only developed appropriately but in a way that the audience felt for him and related. I'm not saying I don't like boba fett, he's an awesome character! However, some of the more exciting episodes excluded him completely and in think that was unfortunately. But I still loved the show!
So they combined everyone together. Why? This show felt more like a star wars show more then a boba fett show. It was different and at first I didn't know how to feel about it but now I have an opinion. I think this is being done because it means a bigger problem is coming. Perhaps the writers are aware of an "avenger level threat" that's coming, and right now its important to make the ties with the characters involved to stop it (or attempt to stop it...). I think if we think about it that way it makes the show more enjoyable and fun! We're leading up to something bigger!
I have to say my favorite parts included Din Djarin and Grogu (and of course Luke Skywalker!!). When we say the silouhette of the mandalorian in episode 5 I was shooketh. I really didn't think he'd be a big part of this show but I loved it! Between watching him find a clan just to be told hes not longer a mandalorian by them, to using the dark saber, to, of course, his attachment to Grogu it was amazing and so awesome! Episode 6 with Luke, Ashoka, Din, and Grogu was one of my favorite episodes! Now it was not exactly where I expected the Mandalorian to go immediately, especially before season 3, but honestly I'm not complaining. I'm running with the story because I think the writers have a well thought out plan for our infamous mando and grogu. There's so much to say about the Mandalorian but we'll save that for another time.
All in all I really loved the series and the finale. I was different then I expected but I'm embracing it because I think a bigger plan is coming with all our favorite characters! Also I really love these writers so far and cant wait to see what they do next. Also anytime I get authentic star wars scenes and shows I'm excited!

Here for my daily dump hehehe, you complimented my art so now you're never getting rid of me /lh /pos
This probably doesn't align with the timeline you came up with but I had an Idea™ for Ranboo getting reset
Basically, mans has been deviant for about a month or so, keeping it secret, refusing to get service whenever he gets damaged, so he just keeps hiding his injuries (like the gloves *wink wink*)
Tubbo and Tommy have gotten quite attached to him, especially since he's been acting more human. The fact that he might have gone deviant hasn't occured to them yet though
So one time an investigation goes pretty bad and they get ambushed by some deviants. Ranboo gets absolutely demolished, either by falling off a building, getting hit by a vehicle or simply getting beaten to a pulp by a raging deviant. Either case, he becomes completely incapacitated and has to be brought back to Cyberlife for some pretty hefty repairs
Bonus angst points: he could've avoided the situation if he wasn't held back by prior injuries (like idk his right knee joint was slightly busted, just enough so that he tripped while running). Even more bonus points if he got clarted while protecting Tubbo, who got to witness his friend's "death" in graphic detail
So anyways, he basically has to be completely reset, but with a twist. All of the data from the investigation and the basic information about the people involved are restored, as he needs it to complete his mission. However, all the bonding and relationships he built up and all his software instability and personality he developed are lost
So set scene: Tubbo is shaken up after what happened, maybe he was injured in the incident too and couldn't work for a week or so. When he goes back to the office, and sees his friend "alive" and well, in perfect shape, he almost starts crying from relief. He runs up to and tackles RAN800, hugging him tightly.
The android however doesn't hug back. He seems confused and distant. He doesn't understand why the detective is calling him "Ranboo" and going on about how glad he's okay.
"Detective Toby, I don't mean to be rude, but it might be possible you're mistaking me for someone else. I don't believe we've met yet, since I was reset."
:)

Anyway this is @sapphire-wine fault so blame her.
Detective conan ace attorney au where Edgeworth gets reverted to the body of a child after he followed after two men dressed in black he suspected were a part of a smuggling ring. Gumshoe lost him and when Edgeworth woke up he was like 5 again.
Gumshoe finds him in a pile of his old clothes that he’s MANY sizes too small for now. But Gumshoe can’t afford to take care of him! And he Definitely cant go home. He can’t even reach the door handle! Luckily Mia, Wright and Maya are all at this theme park celebrating Wright’s first case win! 
Gumshoe: Hey can you hold onto this for me for a second?
Wright: Huh? Sure?
Gumshoe: *Hands him tiny Edgeworth but in glasses and baby*
Wright: ... *Miles sweating bullets as Phoenix studies him* YOU’RE SO CUTE!
Edgeworth, master of being where the murders are gets Wright and Mia a Lot of work. Edgeworth is trying so hard to track down this smuggling ring and get his body back. Wright laments to... Tails (open to a better/worse fake name for Miles) that the man he studied law to met has suddenly disappeared. Phoenix and Tails share Wright’s bed the first few nights before they buy a second futon. Miles looks at him so sadly. Then Wright starts snoring and he looks less fond.
Miles regularly wakes Phoenix up in the middle of the night with nightmares. Phoenix cuddles him back to bed with all the Dad he will one day master. Talks to Mia about getting Tails into therapy because clearly that kid has seen some shit and is not handling it well.
Miles has to sit through first grade. It is a nightmare of children he does not know how to interact with (just like the first time!) and mind numbing boredom. (Just like last time!) Phoenix gets Many requests from the teachers to ‘just let the kids write his own reports please.’ Phoenix has no idea what they’re talking about.
He’s in a class with uhh Kay, Sebastian, Athena and Cody. They are very impressed by the fact he knows so much about the Steel Samurai and they make him watch the Jammin’ ninja as well. They solve kiddy cases as the Detective Kids. Sometimes these turn into murders/mafia/kidnappings. It’s Fine.
Franziska flies in to see her Father again. (Read: To look for her missing brother that she’s terrified her Father killed.) She is absolutely Brutal in court and Tears Wright and Mia apart. They manage to eke out a second day by the skin of their teeth.
Edgeworth sees her leaving. All rage and pain wrapped up in fury. Scrambles to remember what it was that kid called her that had her preening for Days.
“Hey Ms. Whip Lady!” Oh he was getting hit for that.
The hit never came. “... What is it small child?”
“Would you like to play chess some time with me?”
“... If you would like,” (I am so lonely here) “I suppose I could.” (I just want my brother back) “My little brother loves that game you know?”
“I do.”
Edgeworth sneaking into Lana’s office to find some key evidence about the smuggling ring. Gant Almost finding him. Badd searching for the same group. Shields returning and putting together who Miles is after like 0.5 cases with him and proceeding to almost blow his cover every single time they meet. Edgeworth questioning the system that corrupted him. Badd being Deeply frustrated people keep letting the 5 year old Tails run around the crime scene. (Gumshoe why are you letting this happen?!)
Miles learning that Kay’s father was killed by the smuggling ring to stop the investigation. That Athena’s uncle/brother was framed for murder by them. Realizing that Sebastian’s father is the head of the organization that attempted to have him killed (you thought it was a coincidence we went after you? You sniff around a little too much and Von Karma wasn’t moving fast enough) Cody is- well he’s just a very good boy with a camera and a love of the steel samurai and justice. Miles loves him very much.
Phoenix getting so desperate to just Know if Miles is alive or not that he asks Maya to channel him. (Mia already refused) Maya accidentally pulling Gregory instead and Gregory, lost and confused, comforting Phoenix.
Ema developing a ‘cure’ for his deaged state but unfortunately it only works for a little while. “Phoenix I-” Love you too. He wants to say. But their isn’t time. There is Never enough time.
Them all tearing down the entire smuggling ring and uprooting the deep roots of corruption in their system. The sword raised above the guilty chest of the corrupted and damned ready to plunge it in for one final victory over evil and madness-
When Von Karma kicks the feet out from under him.
And suddenly their whole case is falling apart because their Lead witness is suddenly pleading guilty to his father’s murder and there are so many voices demanding his guilt and so many more asking where Tails went- No one cared about Edgeworth. Edgeworth should just Die. Let him just die boy. Don’t make us force your hand.
Miles curling up that Same Exact way Tails does after an earthquake. Phoenix who was So ready to defend him realizing that Miles has been manipulating him for Months now and leaving the courthouse in a rage. Franziska holding her brother that she’s been looking for so long as his bones Melt back down to youth. A glazed eye boy taking the stand and confessing to his father’s guilt. Mia griting her teeth and not knowing how to proceed.
Von Karma demanding a verdict because It’s rather obvious isn’t it?
Franziska yelling out Objection! Standing against her Father. Shaking and demanding a fair trial for him. Protecting her Little Brother from her Father. From Papa with shaking hands.
(I spent the last months thinking you’d taken him from me once. I’ll not stand by and let you do that to me for Real)
He delaying the trial enough that Wright comes back. Them fighting side by side. The kids yelling out things that Miles taught them. The Ballistic markings Mr. Nick!
Coming together at the last minute to save Miles Edgeworth. Uncovering the truth and exposing the corruption of the system. Miles and Phoenix talking. I wanted to save you. You did.
Edgeworth taking the detective kids out for trips to the museum after its all over. Them being surprised how little their dynamic changes despite the fact he can now drive. He is still an absolute pushover but now he can buy them candy.
Lana and Mia reconnect over this kid they got very attached to (Miles vs Tails) and swapping stories and dragging him mercilessly. Maya dragging Edgeworth in his full adult glory to their (previously established) weekly steel samurai viewing party that Does take place in a mountain of pillows and blankets.
Phoenix sitting up late that first night that Edgeworth went back home and Missing. Missing all the space that was filled by another person. By caring for another person. (Shouldn’t it be a relief? Why am I so empty?) Mindlessly calling Edgeworth who answers because he can’t sleep even though he’s exhausted. (i don’t want to dream and wake up alone.) Come over Edgeworth. Edgeworth sleeping on the futon on the floor and Wright dropping his hand over the edge for Edgeworth to hold. Edgeworth not waking up alone.
Detective Conan au.

You had thomastiar royalty au right?? Alright don't kill me but while I would never write it I just find it so amusing to create and define a story with people! It's plainly a base idea. I wanted to share it because I think it could be so much fun to create an au with someone. And also because if not now I would never. So *gives you my hand to grab* would you like to create an au with me?
Alastair is a fallen prince. His family lost their crown to a cruel nearby kingdom and now all he's left with a noble title without nobility, living in chains in a palace he once used to roam freely. The stories on his drunken father had spread across the continent, of his mother's valuable state, and his... preferences. Their family is in ruins. He keeps blaming himself. Somehow, he knows, he has to get free. And maybe he has an idea.
The only person almost unfazed by those rumors was his beloved sister, who wants to rise the Carstairs royal family back to the throne and rescue her beloved father and return what is hers. Cordelia always was shielded in the royal palace - and her only friend is from a close another kingdom, princess Lucie Herondale - despite her skill at weapons. She was the wielder of the famous royal family, Cortana, until the pouncebuys took over her kingdom in spells and lies, turning people against them. Little does she know, some of those lies are the truth to its whole.
Thomas, the third child of the Lightwood royal lineage, has a secret. After losing his sister and crown princess the year before, he was sent to recover in his friend's kingdom. Accompanied with his close friends by his sides, in a confusing chain of events he might just find himself in a revolution against something greater than himself. He never thought it'd be the secret he kept so many years to pave the way to a new possible sunrise, with new people to share it with.
I know it sounds very odd but it's past midnight and my brain is just half awake so yeah, thoughts? 👉👈
Hi! So if I am being 100% honest I do not think I was the one who had a thomastair royalty au, I have thought about it but don't recall ever posting it! I may have posted it without knowing but I don't think I did! Truly who knows but this is so well thought out I am so in for developing it further
So I totally adore the idea of Alastair being a fallen prince, now chained to a kingdom that used to be his. Being honest that gives me vibes of the ash princess (the entire prologue is just the protagonist describing how she feels being trapped within her home) and I love that for this au. So basically my question here would be how would the Carstairs living conditions develop
Cause I'm thinking from how you are describing it it'd be cool if the Carstairs were being still kept at the Castle maybe
Here me out
So Elias is the king of the Carstairs lands after the previous royal family (Jonas family) dies in a tragic attack, and a mage called the magister takes over. The crowned prince Elias is still out hunting the supposed demon that killed the family, and the kings youngest Jem manages to be escaped my some of the villagers in hopes of still having a heir once his grown. Jem grows in a neighboring village thought he is an extremely ill child, there he means a runaway boy from another royal family, Will, whos ran away because he is cursed.
Plot happens turns out the same mage was taking over wills kingdom by using benedict lightwood and thus the lightwood kingdom for his own uses. Gideon betrays his father and when he dies is crowned king, and when the entire tid team beats the mage like everyone's freed they all go back to their own kingdoms and live happy
But Jem was at the late stages of his illness, and to the world he dies (Not really he just left because he found a cure and needed to leave to be one with the magic of the world to get it his not dead and Tessa and will still see him often only his dead to the world)
So through all this when Elias comes back from killing the demon is crowned king of the Carstairs lands
He marries a woman from far of land and produces two heirs Alastair and Cordelia
Just the fact he married someone who isn't native to their lands already starts the general distrust of Elias, and the royal family
The thing is with the years Elias gets more attached to the bottle than looking out for his kingdom, or his family
They try to pretend everything's alright when in reality it wasn't and the crowned prince, Alastair, really has been taking care of everything ever since he could remeber
He's been running the kingdom without everyone's knowledge and he's exhausted. But he loves his people and family enough to even so take on the burden every day
When the pouncebyes start to show signs of attack, he begs his father to put up defense. Elias refuses, not even paying attention to his propositions. Even with all of Alastair's authority he cant outrank the king. So he tries to send troupes to borders and makes excuses, get civilians away from the side lines as much as he can because Elias doesn't do anything
The pouncebyes attack, and to this day Alastair still blames himself for not doing more
There are less casualties thanks to his doings, the damage is low for that of an invation, but they are invated, and they take over their lands. Elias is arrested for refusing to give up the kingdom, kept in jail as an exploit of war
The rest of the Carstairs are able to run away from the castles before they are taken and arrested. Cordelia continues to push on how to restore his fathers name, and Alastair isn't sure how to break it to her that most the rumors are true. But Alastair has a plan, and he will be getting his kingdom back
To the other kingdoms, the attack of the Carstairs is being advertised as a treaty between the two kingdoms. The lightwoods are doubtful of such, and prince Thomas looking to get away from the endless mourning for his sister agrees to go to their lands to get word of what is truly going own. He and his friends embark on a journey south (their kingdom is in the south in my mind now dhhaibwjbian)
The last thing he plans is to find himself held at knife point by the crowned prince of the Carstairs kingdom
(Ok so Alastair thought Thomas and co arriving near his kingdom were reinforcements being brought in by the pouncebyes in disguise so he was gonna take them and use them as blackmail to the crown by the rebellion hes forming)
Yes these are my thoughts
I love this
I am endlessly sorry it took so long but I AM SO READY TO CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT THIS

How would be the adult trio in love ?? I'm really looking forward to your writing 😳😳💖💖💖🙏😎
omg this is something i’ve been thinking about so long since i feel like some people REALLY don’t write the adultrio well when they are in love. of course they are all borderline psychotic but i do not think they are incapable of love. i said what i said anyways let me continue
im going to do this as a head canon if thats okay!! if you want me eventually develop a specific character into a one shot i definitely will:)
warnings: like some mention of blood and fighting, maybe a lil mention of sexual things, nothing too bad tho theres one really explicit blood/gore mention in hisokas but that is a very hisoka thing so i have decided to leave it there
first i’m doing illumi bc yall miss with illumi so hard
okay so
first of all, he was a definitely a child with an avoidant attachment style
basically when mummy was there he was annoyed, when mummy left he didn’t care or was probably happy, and when mummy came back he was annoyed once again
this child did not experience love as a child
not once
zip
zero
nada
so u have to be patient with him im sorry to say
but it isn’t impossible
i think when he’s in love, he doesn’t realize it
he thinks he’s just in a sort of...agreement with you
but im telling u right now.. small acts of kindness are his love language
like if u guys were in a fight together and there was blood on ur clothes he would wash them and lay them on ur bed
and then u would be like “ok u didn’t have to do that thats so nice”
and he’d be like “i dont know what ur talking about”
and walk away
or
he would see like a book or something u like and read it just because u liked it too
he wouldn’t tell u tho he would just randomly bring up something from the book 
and you would be like “oh u read it?” 
and he would be like “no why would u think that”
and you would be like “:|”
with illumi u just have to be patient, i think eventually he would catch himself making ur bed one day and he would be like “fuck”
and realize he might have a thing for u
but he wouldnt believe it bc he is oh so emotionless and does not feel one thing at all
but he does he is just a liar
i think he would make his first move when he accidentally lets out all the emotions hes been faking not having and like just cries wishing he were loved and ur like
“i love u though illumi, a lot”
and he would just kiss u and like hug ur for 3 hours and then make u not talk about it ever again but u guys would just be in love and killua would be kinda pressed but he’d be happy u were illumi’s gon <3
okay let’s do chrollo next im sorry illumi’s was so long 
alright
as u can tell i am in love with this man
and everyone always bashes me bc he has no screentime and a pretty basic anime antagonist backstory
but out of all of the adultrio i think he falls in love the easiest and with someone nobody expects
like he is a mass murderer and thief and ur like...a flower shop worker
he would just be walking in yorknew city and see u reading some obsecure ass russian literature while working at a flower shop and he’d be like “wait im intrigued”
then he would talk to u and u would be like
:D
but also calm and reserved
and he would love that, someone who just vibes not a worry in the world
but then as he gets to know u he realizes u r not just a body bag who vibes
u r a human with actual emotions
something he probably swears he doesnt have
he would tell the rest of the troupe that ur just like...an experiment
and they would all buy it EXCEPT machi
she would be like “omg boss ur in love”
and chrollo would be like “um i dont feel that sry to say”
and machi would be like “ya sure lol”
you have no idea who he is like no clue he is the lead spider
but okay omg this part is gonna be corny
you would like hehe sorry im laughing thinking ab this
walking around yorknew city and he would almost step on a spider and u would be like “no!!! be careful!!” and pick up the spider and lightly set it into the grass
and chrollo would be like “why would u do that spiders r scary...right” *looks into the camera like hes on the office*
and u would be like “no..even spiders have feelings u know”
and then he would just like absolutely lose it he’d maintain composure but on the inside he would be like dhdkhduwojhfw
then he would kiss u and then he would finally tell the troupe the truth and machi would be sooo smug 
oh and the troupe def likes u like that is a given
ur just so innocent and sweet its like impossible not to like u u make everyone put away their tough guy acts
and then ya u guys probably read to each other u weird fucks
but its cute and i love
alright now for probably the person who would take the longest to love someone 
i dont know if u have read hisokas backstory one shot but i will try to explain the best i can
hisoka was in circus. lead man of circus say hisoka talented. lead man train hisoka to use nen. hisoka learns nen very fast. oh no serial killer is on the loose. oh no girl in circus almost get killed by serial killer. hisoka save girl. hisoka accuse lead man of being serial killer. lead man say yes lol i am. hisoka say okay i want 2 fight. lead man say sure lol i will kill u. hisoka kill lead man and girl in circus wonders where hisoka and lead man went.
okay now that thats out of the way
the girls name was abaki and i think hisoka liked her ngl
but that was before u know he got all gassed by killing lead man
he definitely thinks similar to illumi in the way that u r just a pawn in his plans
but u r def super strong and he is shook
he probably wants to fight u
but he still doesnt think ur strong enough
u live ur own life separately from his so he doesnt know much ab what u do in ur free time
one day he catches u training with someone else
and he won’t say it but hes lowkey pissed af
hes like “um wtf why didnt u ask me to train u
and ur like “literally why would i ever do that”
and hes like “what u think i cant train”
and ur like “u can barely control ur bloodlust hisoka :|” 
hes like “yeah u know ur right i guess”
but he doesnt stop thinking ab it bc like why wouldnt u train with him
u decide to go on ur own lil mission and try to fight someone you’ve been wanting to fight for a while
you invite hisoka just to watch, you tell him you just want him to sit around this time since you always sit around and watch him
he expects u to get beat to a pulp ngl
but you like completely obliterate the other person
this is too niche but u have such a gory fighting style. like ur def batshit crazy in a fight and loose all composure 
hisoka is shook bc he did not expect u to go that crazy
u like bite the other dudes jugular and blood splatters every where
that was so gross but idk im into that weird shit sorry im tw’ing that
but hisoka is a weird mf so that def makes him horny for u
he like takes u back to ur house while ur covered in blood and theres a crazy look in ur eye still
and he realizes hes in love with u bc ur just as crazy as him
i feel like ur guys relationships spawns bc of how crazy u both are. u guys probably summon demons for fun
i feel like his love language is more i do for u what u do for me
like if u save his ass in a fight, he’ll watch a cheesy movie for u
its def a give and receive vibe but it works
or if he saves ur ass he makes u guys take a bath together
and ur like “this is so cheesy”
and hes like “um ur having fun tho right” *crickets* “yea thats what i thought”
muah gonna think ab this before i go to bed
alr i think i wrote WAYYY too much omg these are all so long i am so sorry, too many thought in brain keyboard go woosh
hope u liked it though <3
