I can’t stop thinking of demon! Adam going through development and reaching the point of like,, doing something nice without anyone telling him to do it, purely for the sake of doing it. Something he never would have done before. Even if it’s something as small as sitting down with you while you’re watching your favorite movie or show and not shitting on it the whole time, just to keep you company. Or something like that. I dunno. I’m just a sucker for slow burn subtextual romance.
THAT, and the reader seeing his face beneath the mask, looking him the eyes, and smiling a little. Even if they say nothing. I feel like that would stick with him.
Exactly. Demon!Adam lives in my head rent free now. I know this weren't a request of sorts but I kinda wrote something for this
random ficlet below
Demon!Adam x GN!reader (Fluff)
DemonSinner!Adam is something that plays on my mind a lot. He still doesn’t believe in the whole redemption shit that Charlie is laying down but if it gets him a glimpse of seeing heaven again he is willing to try.
-----
Adam was bored and needed something to do that would put off the inevitable “therapy” session with Lucifer’s brat later. So that must be why he finds himself outside your room. He knocks lightly on your door. You didn’t answer, he knocked again louder this time. Still no answer. So he opens the door and peers in.
“Hey errr (Y/n) Charlie asked me to check on you.” A blatant lie but he won’t tell you that.
He sees you’re watching TV.
“Huh? What no shitty nickname this time?” You mumbled around a mouthful of popcorn. Adam walks over and flops down on the couch next to you.
“Oh yeah, nah I didn’t really feel like it.” He grabs a handful of your popcorn.
You quirk a brow.
“Also Charlie said nooo giving nicknames to people that demean them and also who don’t want it and people were given names to be used blah blah blah.” He shoves the popcorn into his mouth. “So what are we watchin?”
“I'm watching a movie I really like so if you're staying either shut up or fuck off.” You sink back into your blanket cocoon.
*10 minutes later*
“What the fuck! This guy clearly likes her but she goes for the other bozo. Is she blind . . . . as well as ya know hot.”
You choke on your drink. You didn’t think that this would be his kinda thing but here he was emotionally invested in the film you had picked. You had really wanted to just wallow in your depression by binge watching trashy romcoms but what was really making you feel better was watching the ‘dickmaster’ himself rooting for the underdog to open up about his feelings to the lead woman.
You go to grab some popcorn but see the bowl is empty.
“Gotta pause.” You go to stand but he stops you.
“I got this.” He hides the good deed by quickly saying “And I need to piss anyway.” You pass him the bowl.
“Not in the popcorn I hope.” You rearrange yourself back in your blanket burrito.
“HAA, You nasty but don’t watch without me. Coz that is a dick move.”
“You know all about those.” You mutter into the blanket. But Adam had gone to the hotel kitchen to make popcorn.
You chose to scroll on your phone until he got back. There were a few messages but you didn’t really feel like answering them. You flop on your side. You can always move when he came back.
While you waited in silence for Adam. You think back on how he really was getting better. After seeing him slowly open up to Charlie’s ideas and seeing that he can be a good guy when it suits him. You smile to yourself.
Your door slams open.
“Okay I’m back bitch.”
Nevermind looks like he has thrown up his walls again.
He lays out the armful of snacks and the bowl of popcorn that looks way bigger than the bowl he left with. He sees you on your side.
“You comfy down there?”
You groan and slowly sit up again. He sits back down but wraps an arm around you and hugs you into his side and nothing more.
“Okay we can continue now.” He grabs the popcorn and rests it on his lap.
You set the movie going again and snuggle just a little bit closer. For popcorn reasons of course not that Adam was nice and warm and you felt safe next to him.
“Clearly she don’t know a good thing when she sees it.” You pipe up after about three minutes into the film again. You had seen this film so many times but there was one scene that always brought out annoyance in you.
“Right!! She needs to open her eyes this guy clearly loves her for who they are and not some fake ass bs that other . . . what?” Adam stops mid-sentence looking down at you resting against his chest.
You blink a few times before realising you are staring “Huh oh nothing.”
You focus back on the screen in front of you.
The climatic end of the film was approaching and the main lead were confessing their love and as the credits role you can here someone crying. You glance up and see Adam wiping away tears.
“You okay.” You sit up and reach for the tissues on the table to hand them to him.
“What!!! I’m fine. Of course I’m fiiiine. Shut up bitch.” He grabs the tissue box from you.
“If it helps I cried the first time I watched this movie.” You wrap the blankets tighter around yourself.
“I . . . ah . . shit.” He saw you curling further in on yourself. He feels guilt crawling into his stomach. “Sorry, I’m . . .Ugh. Look I’m bad at these feel your feelings crap that Charlie spouts. But it was a good film and yeah I cried but . . .”
“It don’t make you any less of a man.”
“Yeeeah I know. Of course I know. I’m the first man.”
“Huh back to that are we.” You bump shoulders with him, making him laugh.
He pulls you back into his side “So what are we watching now?”
------
I really didn't mean for this to be as long as it was. I'm sorry

Tara Carpenter x Fem!Reader
Chapter Two: Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse!
Summary: Tara and you decide to do movie night at her place. Joking around with each other quickly turns into arguing
Warning(s): Mentions of drinking, Swearing, Clueless!R, Jealous!Tara
Notes: Part two of this. Actually thinking of turning this into either a series or mini series. I re-wrote this a couple times, hope you enjoy. Part three won't come as soon as this one but it will come at some point
Previous part|Next Part
Tumblr media
A week has passed since you decided to be bold. Well..bold is a bit of a stretch. After you ran you stumbled a few times and almost tripped face first down the stairs. You’re fine.
You’re at a local pizza shop, waiting in line to order. You and Tara decided to do another movie night at her place this time. Sam’ll be at her therapy session so it’s the perfect time for you to come over and hang out. As far as you know it’s just going to be the two of you.
Like it’s always been..so why were you catching yourself focusing on that part? 
BzzBzz
—-
You finished ordering the food when your phone buzzed. You take it out of your pocket to see messages from Tara.
                                                 
  Tara 💜
Hey, we’re still on for later right?
noooo need to worry about the
big and scary Sam Carpenter
Ha. Ha. you’re hilarious 
yeah we’re still on
is it just gonna be us?
As far as I know
why? scared this is secretly just my 
plan to seduce and kill you?
and who exactly revealed my diabolical 
plan to you??
I'm just that good
but don’t say that
shit around Sam lmao 
wouldn’t dream of it, darling
Food’s ready so imma get going
but I’ll see you in a bit 
Looking forward to it<3
You smile and put your phone back in your pocket, after you grab the food you make your way to your car and wait a bit before leaving.
As you raise your fist up to the door to knock, it opens and you're met with Tara’s lit up face.
“Did you even check who it was, what if I was a deranged sociopath?” You jokingly ask, slightly raising your eyebrows. 
“Don’t worry, I knew it was you” Tara replied, with a smirk. You tilted your head.
“Were you tracking me, Carpenter?” You chuckled a bit. She only smirked while she helped you bring in the food.
You shook your head at her and mumbled,“Of course..” Tara couldn’t help but smile in response.
“Since when is it a crime to make sure you didn’t get kidnapped or something on the way here?” She defends, walking to the kitchen to grab utensils and a couple of cups. You playfully rolled your eyes at her comment.
“Well, I’m not kidnapped. And I’m here. So movie night can commence. I was thinking we can start with Beetlejuice” You suggest as you start to lay out the food.
“Sounds like the perfect plan to me,” She says genuinely, coming back from the kitchen.
The credits roll, Tara and you both lay on the coach with her head on your chest and your arm slung over her. You both were comfortable, neither of you wanted to move. But the remote was on the other side of the coffee table. Damn it.
You shuffle over to it, causing Tara to whine a little. This causes you to smile a bit at her pouting. “Only a second, not even.” You state, getting up to reach for the remote. You eventually go back to the couch and she immediately curls up next to you again. 
“You’re such a baby sometimes” You tease, putting your arm back around her. She sends you a glare but it doesn’t make you back down from your words.
“Am not.”
“Are too.”
“Am. not.”
“Are. Too.”
“You’re beyond annoying sometimes, Y/N Y/L/N” She huffed, crossing her arms but still curled up next to you.
“Aww, you’re just a bit drunk so I won’t take that to heart” You continued to tease. Tara rolled her eyes but tried to bite back a smile. 
“You do know you’re a dork though, right?” Tara asks, smirking while looking up at you. She figured she’d cut in on the teasing.
“Wait- you think I’m a dork, Carpenter? I’m astonished” You say a bit dramatically but jokingly, raising your eyebrows slightly.
“A huge one to be honest with you” She responds as her grip on you tightens gently. You’re too clueless to notice how she snuggled up closer to you. 
“Well it takes one to know one, doesn’t it?” Tara gently shoves your side as you only smile in response. “Not as big of one as you, that’s for sure.”
“But it’s safe to say you still like this dork, at least you like me enough to stalk me-” 
“-Is this still about me tracking you? Should’ve known you were gonna have a field day with that. At least it wasn’t some random doing it like that chick who’s always staring at you in our film class” Tara remarked with a slight scowl.
“Who?"
"Think her name's Isabella or something" Tara answered, with disinterest.
"Oh, I helped her with an assignment once. What’s wrong with her though? She’s cute” You respond, unaware of why she brought her up.
“Y/N, she stares at you like all the time. It’s fucking weird” Tara held a bitterness in her tone that you caught.
“Is it? I don’t know, maybe I’d want to give her my number-” Did you actually? Not really. But you wanted to test the waters. See why Tara seemed so annoyed just because a girl was staring at you. 
“-To some random girl you don’t even know? That’s what it sounds like. And it sounds fucking ridiculous” You were so unsure as to why she was being so bitter about this topic. Weren’t you two just joking a minute ago?
“Why are you being so defensive about this, Carpenter?” You ask, wanting an answer. But she doesn’t give you one. 
“I’m not being defensive Y/N” Tara was now fully off of you and the volume of her voice rose. “You always go for the first person who gives you attention-”
“That’s not true” Your patience was starting to grow slim as you tried to keep calm.
“Yes it is! It’s like every week it’s a new person”
“Why the hell do you care so much about who I go out with?” You asked, wanting to know what her excuse was for lashing out so suddenly.
Tara sighed in frustration,“It’s just that-” before she could finish her sentence the door starts to unlock and Sam enters.
Sam looked and saw Y/N which caused her to go into “Scolding Mode” but she stopped herself before she said anything when she saw your annoyed faces. You both seemed annoyed- no, you’re pissed at each other. 
“The hell happened with you two?” Sam asked, a bit softer than how her usual tone was around you. 
The older Carpenter was only met with silence as you started gathering your things. “What do you think you’re doing?” Tara asked with sternness in her voice.
“Leaving. I need to cool down for the night but when you wanna talk like damn adults you know where to find me” You retorted before leaving, slamming the door shut.
Sam looked over to Tara, still confused about what had happened.
"Shit" was all Tara could say, she knew she messed up. But she refused to admit to herself the reason she lashed out.
Sam wasn't dumb, she knew her sister. You weren't the type of friends to be this pissed at each other over nonsense.
"You wanna talk about it?" Sam walked over to Tara and sat down beside her on the couch. The spot was still warm from when you were sitting there.
"Not in the slightest" was all Tara responded with before going to her room and shutting the door. She thought about the conversation over and over again. But not once did she consider being the first to contact you.
Tara was too stubborn for that, but so were you.

Tumblr media
After the longest day at work, you finally arrive back home.
Holly barks at you, welcoming you home, leading you to coo and kiss the poodle hello. Your husband follows right after, taking your bag from your shoulder and welcoming you with a big smooch on the lips.
"Welcome home, darling," Yoongi greets you with his signature uneven smile.
He's changed up his outfit today, choosing to wear a fitted black shirt that outlines his chest beautifully. You drool at the sight.
"Welcome home, indeed," you echo back.
"Are you hungry?" he asks you.
"Mhm," you confirm.
You step closer to him, wrapping your arms around his neck.
"I'm so hungry, Yoonie," you continue in what you hope to be a seductive tone. "Absolutely starving."
Unfortunately, your husband takes it literally.
"Why? Did you work through your lunch break?"
"No, no, Yoonie, I meant—"
"That can't do, darling," he says in a no-nonsense tone. "We need to get some food in you. Come on, quick."
And Yoongi leaves you there – stunned, horny, and in disbelief.
But you remain persistent. You try again after dinner and after you've both finished washing the dishes.
"Yoonie? Wanna watch some Netflix and chill with me?"
This should work. Your husband's a millennial. Surely, he knows what Netflix & Chill means, right? Right?
Wrong.
"This is a good movie," your husband mumbles through a mouthful of popcorn. "You picked a good movie, darling. It's well-directed and the cinematography is outstanding."
You smile dryly in response.
You're both seated on the couch with clothes still on, unfortunately. Naturally, Yoongi took your words for what they were and is currently engrossed in the Netflix film you mindlessly picked.
Looks like you need to be more specific.
"God, it's so hot in here!" you exclaim in exaggeration, fanning yourself with your hand. "Aren't you feeling hot, Yoonie?"
He finally takes his eyes off the movie to focus on you.
"Uh, no?" he responds in confusion, staring at the thermostat that showed an acceptable temperature. "Are you?"
"I am!" you tell him. "I feel so hot. Maybe we should take our clothes off and—"
"Hang on, darling," he cuts you off, and promptly stands. "I know what to do."
He heads somewhere for a few seconds before returning with a portable mini-fan.
"Do you want me to hold it for you? So your arm won't get tired?"
You blink at him. Honestly, you could cry. Whether because of his sweet gesture or because of how dense he is, you don't know.
"On second thought, Yoonie, I think I'm fine now."
"Are you sure? Are you feeling okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry," you start to say, but then you realize you could use this opportunity as a final attempt. "Actually..."
Yoongi stares at you, waiting.
"...I'm not completely fine. I've been so stressed lately, you know?"
"From work?" he asks.
"Yeah. I think I need some stress relief..." You look him in the eye to get your point across. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
There's a glint in Yoongi's eyes.
"I understand completely, darling."
Finally.
But wait.
Where is he going?
And what's that he's bringing?
"Aroma therapy," Yoongi tells you seriously, placing a diffuser near you and setting it up. "Essential oils are known to help with stress. Don't worry, darling, I've got you."
Of course, you sigh internally.
You should've known better than to beat around the bush with your blunt, straightforward husband.
You grab his hands.
"Yoonie! Stop it!"
"But the oils—"
"Forget the oils. I don't need aroma therapy, okay?"
He's genuinely confused. "But you said—"
"I know, I'm sorry. I'm not too stressed out, alright? You don't need to worry. I just..."
"Just what?"
You grip his chin and bring his face closer.
"I just want you to fuck me."
It's out in the open now and your husband blinks at you for a few moments, before realization dawns on him and he smirks lazily at you.
"Why didn't you just say so?"
You shrug, smiling now that he finally gets it.
"Well," he grunts, "my boss just gave me orders. What should I do?"
You play along with him, wrapping your arms around his neck, making your lips hover just centimeters from his.
"I think you shouldn't make her wait any longer," you say cheekily. "And I think you shouldn't hold back on her tonight."
Yoongi sweeps you up in his arms, making you squeal.
"Be careful what you wish for, darling," he tells you in that deep voice of his and you feel your underwear dampen.
And without wasting any more time, Yoongi carries your horny ass to your shared bedroom where he fucks you all through the night.

What's Your Sign of Encouragement?
Tumblr media
Hi there! I hope you all enjoy it and remember to take what resonates and leave what does not as this is a general reading. This reading does not supplement your need to go and seek actual therapy or professional help.
Take your time when choosing your pile. Ask yourself the question and choose the picture that you can’t stop looking at. Listen to your intuition.
Patreon Link
YouTube Link (Start Channel1/29) Ko-Fi Donations
Tumblr media
Pile l:
Tarot: Knight of Pentacles, 3 of Pentacles, The Star (reversed), 7 of Wands. Oracle: Healing, Life Purpose, Happiness, Financial Health
"You are not in a prison" was a phrase I heard as I was shuffling your tarot cards pile 1. There is a difference between being in a prison and also being in your own way. You're causing yourself to stay stuck not ever seeing that you have the key to freedom. Your mind is holding you hostage as your soul is begging to be set free. "Why do you deny yourself heaven? Why do you find yourself undeserving? Why are you afraid of happiness? You think it's not possible for someone like you. But you are more than deserving" - Beyonce. Some of the words I changed because she was talking about love/Jay-z from the Lemonade album but why are you so afraid of good things, boo when good things are calling for you. Open up the wounds that have hurt you and heal. Your life purpose is calling you, financial abundance is also calling you but you need to wake up. Change your mindset and ways. Stop self-sabotaging and seek some healing and therapy. I want to see you win, others want to see you win. But it all starts with you wanting to see yourself win too. I wish I could hug you pile 1, you need it the most right now but I know you got this. Keep reminding yourself that you are a star, you ARE the main character and take your time one foot after another. I know life is shit right now but see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Tumblr media
Pile ll:
Tarot: None Oracle: Answers, Finding, Home, Passion, Courage "The answers you seek are inside of you. You're looking everywhere but where you need to be looking, inside." You may be trying to find yourself looking everywhere from social media, to finding yourself in love partners, careers, etc when you should be looking inside of you. Listen to your intuition, listen to the fire that most likely has been burning inside of you but you have been ignoring it out of fear that no one will like this new version or worse maybe you won't like this new person you feel deep down inside. Do not be afraid pile ll. There is a saying that goes "Don't let the money change you, let it make you" from the iconic movie Player's Club but in the sense of this context I am saying embrace the change but don't let the change break you or turn into something that it isn't. You are meant for change, growth, and finding your sense of home this lifetime. You deserve to be at peace and comfort in not only your own skin but the people around you. Find your community, find where you belong, there are billions of people out there who are dying to meet this new version of you, but you have to be willing to show up. Your pile surprisingly didn't need any tarot only oracle cards and the messages were coming in. Have the courage pile ll. *Viola Davis Voice from the Help* You are safe. You is loved. You is welcomed. You is amazing. make that your mantra as you find your sense of home, belonging, acceptance, and self-love.
Tumblr media
Pile lll:
Tarot: The Magician (reversed), 10 of Wands, Knight of Wands (reversed), The Lovers, 7 of Cups Oracle: Friendship, Fertility, Boundaries, Prosperity, Strength Pile lll why are you almost always my pile with romance, friendship, or family with boundary problems, haha. Who do I need to smack for you guys because this has to stop, my guy. For some strange reason, I feel one of you said I need to smack everyone for you and I believe it. Two songs are coming in for you and that's "We're Not Going To Take It by Twisted Sisters and "Loverboy by Mickey and Sylvia both popular songs back in the day especially Lover Boy as it was in the original movie Dirty Dancing. You are sick and tired of being sick and tired and you're becoming fed up with being presented bread crumbs for your relationships whether this is romantic or platonic. You want more from the people around you but you fear leaving because you feel you don't have any other options. If not other options you aren't sure if this is as good as it gets and it's not. There is always a bigger and better everything in life. As soon as you think that you have reached greatness or met the best person in the world you meet a whole new level of amazing you keep climbing from there. Just know that whatever whoever you are dealing with you have a whole community behind you waiting to help you pick up where you are and show you a whole new world. If not the current people in your life new people are coming in as well wanting to show you the better things whether it's food, clothes, community, love, career...you name it. Don't believe for a second that you don't have options because you will always have options. A few of you may have been drawn to pile 1 as well. It's okay to start over and it's okay to set boundaries. Take a deep breath and dare to do what is right for you and believe that your life is abundant in all ways possible.
That's all I have for everyone. I hope you enjoyed this reading. Until next time, stay safe and blessed.

🌸Pac 18+ What’s the meaning of this connection Between You & Your FS (Short)
🔋Take a deep breath, and remember this is a general reading. I hope this reading gives you clarity. Enjoy it.🌸🌸❤️💋All love and positive vibes surrounding you guys, and this general reading as well. 🌸🌸😋❤️💋
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pile 1: Oh, the meaning of this connection between you and your FS. It's a major sacred support. It seems like some of you will have a false twin, they are an imposter. Energetic vampires, chaotic, drama, and a shadow portal. I think that some of you might stay away from this person. I don't sense that bad from them though. They'll say that you get them and vice-versa. Like I said I don't sense bad from this false twin maybe they aren't meant to be a romantic relationship between you and them. That's what I'm feeling. It seems like this connection means that you guys will be best pals, and have such good chemistry together. Long talks, vibing, and needing each other. You two will have such mutual respect. A few of you will be the best of friends. That's why I'm getting friendship vibes. For some of you yes this is a false twin because it wasn't supposed to be a romantic relationship. Don't be disappointed about it. Because you'll have such a good friendship with them. Us vs Us. You two will have inside drama, so they'll get on your nerves. A lot of triggers will happen with them. You'll bring out the good and bad. Space is necessary. They'll think that you're so stunning to them. They'll be starstruck. So the meaning of this connection is divinely guided it is protected by y'all spirit guides. Y'all have an unbreakable connection. To be real I like this connection between you and them. Maybe you or they might beatbox or Chop. They might go to therapy for their disorder. Again I told you they will annoy the shit out of you and vice-versa. But the meaning of this connection is very powerful to me.
Tumblr media
Pile 2: Off the back, you two are Starcross lovers. Do you know what movie I’m seeing Titanic? Titanic! I love that movie like some of you are like Rose and your husband is like Jack. The ones who hold themselves back. That's so funny that what card came out. So it seems like you'll be the one who runs away from this beautiful connection. Because you think that this connection between you and them could be true. You'll think it's not real or feel like you are delusional. But you aren't. Even spirits say “This Is Real”. So believe it! Are you going to trust it? Anyways this means that you and your FS are a soul and star family. It meant to come down here in the 3D. Activation!!! This means that they'll respect the shit out of you. Admiration, worship, and loves you, and be your biggest fan and supporter. This is amazing. See! You will have your inside drama between you and him. I feel it is a very intense fight you two will have. But it won't get toxic to where breaking up. Again space is necessary. This means that this connection between you and them will turn into an engagement 💍. So you'll marry them. I believe after your walls are down. Oh so here's the issue ex will try to come between you and them. But I don't feel it for long though. Come on! Your FS worships the fuck out of you. You are their Zing. This reminds me of the movie Hotel Transylvania. When Johnny and Mavis Zing for the first time. It seems like this type of connection. See! I was right about those intense fights. When you and your FS argue that shit will cause a lot of fire 🔥. Again I don't feel toxic but I do feel like you two especially have to watch your mouth 👄.
Tumblr media
Pile 3: The meaning of this connection between you and your FS is that you'll be addicted to that dick! Ayo!!! Haha 💰😂you’ll be very addicted to that dick. Eat it up. Some of you will be submissive to them, and possessive. Woah this is an interesting pile. So they're your mentor. Your spouse is your mentor they are meant to help you. Ahhh!! I'm screaming 🙀🎱. This connection between you and them is meant to be manifest. It is happening now. It is like a blessing from the sky. You two will cross the finish line and success, and fulfillment. Oh, this is good. They already sending you messages in dreams, giving you signs, and online. Don't ignore the signs. A lot of grief will happen. So much transformation for the two of you. Sadness, pain, depression, and loss. I think your FS will be there for you. Yes, you two will fucking fight but help each other with it. This is your last life with them. Separate souls are only meant to be in the 5D. So they were meant to be your spirit guide just to watch over you. That's why they are your mentor. Hmm, it seems like a lot of mistrust maybe you are scared about this engagement 💍. Multiple attraction!! Oh, you'll have a lot of men and women on you heavily. A lot of old feelings will come up. I don't know what that feeling is but I heard it is worth it. Some of you will marry your Mentor or you'll be engaged to them.
Tumblr media
Pile 3: Oh snap, In the beginning, it was like lust I don't care to use that word. So I would say a fling. I swear it is passion between you and your FS. I can that you guys having a lot of sex. This reminds me of the movie Sugar and Spice if you guys ever watch that movie. With Diane and Jack Bartlett. That's exactly how I see it. It won't be serious in the beginning, because again it is like a fling. But you are manifest it comes into fruition. It is happening now. This might be the last life with them. Awe 😭I’m sorry but again don’t be disappointed because it will be worth it. See! Flirting, teasing, and passion. Goddamnnn!!! A lot of sex. I'm not surprised they have a breeding kink. They'll throw your ass against the wall and start kissing you hard. Biting lips 💋🕯. I do sense a romantic side they would want to show you but it seems like they are a little scared. They'll be your 1st. First kiss, relationship, and your first time. You'll be giving your precious fruit to them✨. Haha 😂didn’t I say this? Passionate kisses, intense sex energy, and partying together. Oh my goodness, you two will be partying hard together. They'll be fighting for your attention like crazy!!! I mean fighting to it. I can see that. That's incredible. The meaning of this connection between you and your FS is very important. In the beginning, it starts as your little crush fling, and then a relationship, and now as fiancè. Do you see the pattern? This is the meaning of y'all connection together.

No Good, Very Bad Day
Raphael x Reader
Prompt: Perhaps, reader has been stressed and he wants to help them feel better. Even better if it’s a friends to lovers trope where they are just friends in the beginning but this changes the nature of their relationship.
Note: I also love the friends to lovers trope! Confession fics are among my faves. I hope you like it! Ignore the title, it’s very fluffy, reader is just going through it lol.

Tumblr media
It had been one hell of a stressful day. For starters, your insurance had fucked up your therapy. Your landlord still hadn’t fixed your broken showerhead. One of the customers at work had been an asshole, and it really put you in a bad mood. Add to that the lingering Facebook request from your ex and yeah……just not the best day.
So, a little storm cloud seemingly hovering over your head, you sat in your apartment, wrapped in a blanket, wearing your comfiest pair of pajamas. You had some snacks on the coffee table, and you were playing one of your favorite video games on your Switch, hoping to get your mind off of the everything, even if only for a little while.
After a while of sitting there alone, you heard a tap on your window. It was too soft to be a rogue pigeon forgetting what glass was, so it meant one of four things. However, when you approached, you quickly realized who it was crouched just outside your fire escape.
You pulled open the window and helped Raphael inside. He came to hang out sometimes, but you hadn’t been expecting him.
“Hey, Red. What’s going on?”
“Nothin’, just on patrol. Quiet night.” He shrugged. It took him a second, but once he got a better look at you, he could tell something was wrong. “Are you alright?”
“Yeah, it’s just…it’s been a really long day.”
“Oh. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to barge in—”
“No! No, Raph, seeing you has actually been the best part of my day so far.”
His look of panic faded, replaced instead with a warm smile. “Alright, so how am I makin’ you feel better right now? What problems I gotta fix?”
“You don’t have to—”
“I want to.” He assured you, tilting his head. “So let’s get to work.”
You walked over to the living room and told him everything that was going on.
“Well first of all, that asshole at work can get fucked. It’s not yer job to fix all of his problems.”
You laughed, nodding. “I needed to hear that. Thank you.”
“I can take a look at yer showerhead if ya want. And you’re always welcome to take showers down in the lair if ya gotta.” He assured you. “I didn’t even know it was broken.”
“It’s usable, but it’s barely a trickle coming out of it.”
“Mmm, gotcha. Well, I’ll see what I can do. We can call Donnie and see if he’s got any parts we could use in the meantime. And I can totally have him yell at ya insurance guy, too. He’s real good at that, knows all the legal mumbo jumbo.” Raph walked through all of your problems, and, as he always seemed to, he made you feel a lot better about everything.
“Thank you, Raph.” You told him sincerely, tears welling up in your eyes.
“Aww, shorty, no need for tears. I’ll take care of ya. I always will.” He promised, gathering you in his big strong arms, one of his large hands stroking through your hair comfortingly.
Something clicked then, while he was holding you. You’d always had a bit of a crush on Raph, admittedly. Who wouldn’t? He was big and strong and brave, loyal to a fault, and always willing to fight for you, no matter the cost. He was…well, he was everything you were looking for, honestly. He always had been.
The two of you split. Raph went to work on your showerhead while you ordered a pizza and texted Donnie about your insurance fiasco. Once the pizza arrived and the shower was more or less fixed, the two of you settled on the couch again, putting on a movie and enjoying each other’s presence.
Maybe it was because you felt like you had nothing to lose after the day you’d had, or maybe you were finally coming to your senses, but you looked at Raphael and stated with certainty, “You know, you’d be a really great boyfriend, Raphael.”
He froze for a long moment before chuckling sheepishly. “Yeah? What gave you that impression?”
“I don’t know, you’re just…you’re the best. I really don’t know what I’d do without you in my life and…I don’t want to know.”
His eyes were wide, heart racing so loudly, he was sure you could hear it from where you were sitting. “W-what are ya saying?”
“I like you, Raph. I have for a while. But if you don’t feel the same, nothing has to change. I’m okay with this, too.”
Raph set down his pizza and stared at you like a third eye had sprouted on your forehead. “You’re bein’ serious right now?”
“Of course I am. Why?”
“Well, I just…” He rubbed the back of his neck, chuckling. “I mean, look at me. You’re…You actually like me? Do ya need your eyeballs checked?”
“Of course I like you! Who wouldn’t?”
He scoffed. “Imma need you to elaborate on that.”
“Well for starters, you’re six-foot-five, super muscular, super handsome, but beyond that…you’re sweet. You’re kind, you’re a good listener, and you’re downright gentle when you want to be. You’re protective and brave and the most loyal and loving person I’ve ever met. You make me laugh more than anyone I’ve ever met and I know that no matter what happens to me, you’ll always be there for me. Hell, you took the worst day I’ve had in a while and turned it around in twenty minutes.”
He stared at you for a long moment, kind of in shock. He forced a laugh so he didn’t burst into tears on the spot. “You’ve been keeping all of that tucked away in that pretty little head of yours?”
“Yep.” You shrugged, unsure of what else to say.
“You actually like me.” He stated, letting the pieces click. “See, just when I was starting to think my giant crush on you was hopeless…” He let out a little disbelieving laugh. “Holy shit.”
“So can I like kiss you now or…?”
Raph leaned over, crushing his lips to yours, cherishing the taste of them as your arms wound around his neck, tugging him closer to you. Raph pulled you into his lap, strong arms wrapping around your frame, your chest pressed to his. The way he kissed you left you breathless, and when you finally pulled apart, he rested his forehead against yours, searching your eyes for any sign of disgust, but only finding love.
“Ya know, I think Mikey’s gonna be pissed I’m the first one to get a girlfriend.”
“And Casey’s gonna owe April like twenty bucks.” You said, causing him to laugh.
“So…ya still think I’m gonna be a good boyfriend.”
You nodded, pressing another soft kiss to his lips. “The best, in fact.”

Hi! if the request/ask is open, if so, could you do of tfrid 2015, Steeljaw's pack, and/or other cons, your choice, with human (gn! or f!) Reader? Romantic/Platonic
This Human's a cinnamon roll, somewhat naive/innocent, (has the personality/backstory of Perrito from the Puss in Boots movie or Fluttershy from MLP). They're very motherly and being nurse/therapy-like friend and also a Pacifist yet can be passive-aggressive…
I loved Perrito's character in the movie! His backstory bits where a bit of a twist yet it works! I hope I did a good job adopting his character into Buddy's. Lets see how Buddy's dynamic goes with some of the members of the Con's pack.
Hope you enjoy!
Steeljaw and his pack reaction to Bot Buddy with the personality of Perrito from "Puss in Boots the Last Wish"
SFW, platonic, mention of tragic backstory and some injuries, Cybertronian/ Bot Reader
Rid 2015
Bot Buddy is a minicon with a dog alt mode.
Why is the world is Buddy with these criminals?
Well, Steeljaw had stumbled across the confused minicon with a large garbage can on top of their helm. He grabbed the can off to see Buddy.
“Oh! Thank you!”--Buddy
“Erm… you’re welcome?”--Steeljaw
“Wow it’s been a long time since I’ve talked to someone. Even longer since that can’s been on my helm! That reminds me—”--Buddy
“Right… Do you have a place to go? A team perhaps?”--Steeljaw
“Nope I’ve been a part of a team before but more importantly do you want to be my friend? I can do cool tricks, I have a handy tool kit and—”--Buddy
“Can you do patch work?”--Steeljaw
“Oh you bet I can!”--Buddy
“Hmmmm… I guess I could be your friend— what are you doing?”--Steeljaw
“I’m trying to hug you?”--Buddy
“… Oh Primus…”--Steeljaw
If the Autobots could have a minibot, why couldn’t he? Buddy becomes a medic for the Cons as more join the ranks. The Cons, especially the newer ones, don’t know who Buddy is even around them. They know that they aren’t innocent and pure, but Buddy seems to be made of pure light and positivity that it hurts.
Steeljaw
Steeljaw doesn’t regret picking up Buddy despite what he might say sometimes when he is angry.
Buddy had made themselves a rather vital member of the pack whether it was intentional or not.
Not only was Buddy excellent at patchwork, but there was something about them that made everyone let their guard down.
Steeljaw even felt himself slipping sometimes when their talks go on for a bit.
“Oh! That reminds me of the time my friend pushed me off the ship while the ship was taking off! I fell near some of the acid waste, but I managed to land on a pile of sharp scrap. Oh! I also saw the prettiest piece of kibble that day!”--Buddy
“You’re friend… pushed you off a moving shuttle?”--Steeljaw
“No, the accidentally pushed me after they opened the shuttle door.”--Buddy
“…”--Steeljaw
He is disturbed hearing Buddy backstory.
Just how??
Their backstory screams anger, pain, resentment. Buddy just smiles and looks at their experience positively.
If the Bee team ever came across Buddy and tried to ‘rescue’ them, Steeljaw is unleashing the entire pack on them.
Buddy belongs to the pack and no Autobot is going to take them away from pack.
Thunderhoof
Thunderhoof was confused over Buddy existence. He has never met a bot this nice; it seems suspicious.
If they’re playing a game, then so can he!
It isn’t until Thunderhoof has a ‘friendship bracelet’ around his servo that he realizes that this might not be a game.
He takes Buddy under his metaphorical wing.
He does tell Buddy that he expects their loyalty, but Buddy is too busy hugging his ped to really notice too much.
Buddy mentions a bit of their backstory and he has to pause whatever he is doing.
“That was so cool! That reminds me the one time some of my friends and I were playing hide and seek—”--Buddy
“Hmm yeah?”--Thunderhoof
“—And I had to hide and, and guess what? Guess what Thunderhoof!”--Buddy
“What kid?”--Thunderhoof
“I hid in a scrapyard for 3 weeks! I am still the best hider ever! They said they checked everywhere but that just proves how good of a hider I am!”--Buddy
“…What?”--Thunderhoof
How was Buddy not vengeful? Not bloodthirsty? Not mean?
After all of that…
Thunderhoof does have a chat with Steeljaw about their past and they both agree to keep an optic on them.
He is ready to ram any bot if they come close to Buddy.
Underbite
Meeting Buddy was rather eventful as Underbite nearly ate them. A swift kick to the helm via Steeljaw stopped that though.
He ‘apologized’ and to his surprise Buddy forgave him.
Underbite brags all the time about his achievements to Buddy and Buddy just listens happily.
He comes to Buddy when he feels the need to brag mainly.
Buddy mentions a bit about their backstory, and he feels uncomfortable.
“The way you crushed that tin can reminds me that time my friends brought me to a trash crusher and accidentally pushed the on button! They were so silly and it was such a fun prank.”--Buddy
“You… nearly got crushed in a crusher?”--Underbite
“Yeah! Its was such a cool prank!”--Buddy
“… I’m just gonna go over there for a bit…”--Underbite
He doesn’t press anymore on this subject. This is not his suite and will not touch the Feelings.
He is willing to help Buddy out of a tight situation.
Who else is he supposed to brag to about his achievements.
Clampdown
He uses Buddy at first.
No one in the pack can seem to hurt Buddy so they make a perfect shield.
This has worked for a while. Buddy even offered to be his shield which he greatly takes advantage of this.
Until Buddy lets loose one of their backstory tales he backs off immediately.
“Are you okay?”--Buddy
“Yeah, yeah I guess still got my shell.”—Clampdown
“That reminds me the time my friends accidentally forgotten me under some rocks for a bit. And guess what!”--Buddy
“…what—”--Clampdown
“I chewed my pedes off to get out and crawl to a med kit! I saw the prettiest sunset that day.”--Buddy
“… I—I—Who are you?”--Clampdown
He is horrified hearing this and thinks that Buddy is an evil mastermind.
This was all an act! It has to be!
He does not care too much about if Buddy was taken by the Bee team. Maybe a little bit guilty, but that’s about it.
Quillfire
Like everyone else Quillfire is confused and suspicious of Buddy. After a bit of time, he gets used to Buddy.
He can rant and tell Buddy of his plan for revolution.
Buddy just listens intently and just feeds off of his enthusiasm.
He gets in on some of Buddy’s backstory and he is horrified.
“You throw those quills so far Quillfire!”--Buddy
“Yes! Each one was in the name for the Revolution!”--Quillfire
“Yeah! The Revolution! You know, this reminds me of that one time one of my friends thought it was funny to put me in a stasis pod and, and guess what! They shot me out of a canon into space! That’s actually how I got here—Umm… Quillfire?”--Buddy
Quillfire hugging Buddy with some tears in his optics.
How could sweet little Buddy be okay after that!? Quillfire wants to wrap them in a blanket and give them a cube full of energon. They deserve better friends.
Quillfire will die for Buddy.
He will throw any plan to the wind if Buddy is in danger. Quills will be thrown if Buddy is in danger.

I just finished your piece of Leon saving reader from kidnapper. So good, definitely one of my favorites for my boy Leon.
I was wondering if I could kindly request a sequel piece of dealing with the dissociative amnesia. I have that and a huge part of it and is forgetting memories that aren’t associated with the traumatic event. You can slowly start to forget everything and you can also sometimes get snippets of a memory back from triggers.
As a Leon lover, I’d love to see Leon comforting and helping the reader with that as well as the PTSD in general.
Of course no pressure or worry if you don’t wanna do this! You’re an amazing writer and I hope you keep writing in the future!! ❤️❤️☺️
Slowly I think that I will start writing again. My mood is still crap, but at least I have the desire to write something. So I'll probably continue to answer requests.
Let this be a small addition to that post about the kidnapping of the reader.
Tumblr media
- First of all, Leon will be afraid to leave you alone. He will walk with you everywhere and hold your hand.
- Of course, having experienced such stress, he understands that this will not pass without consequences, so he tries as much as possible to smooth out all the corners and make sure that nothing reminds you of the kidnapping.
- Dissociative amnesia is a shitty thing, you remember that you were afraid, but the memories of those days and the kidnapper himself seemed to be erased from your memory. Leon is only happy about this. He really thinks that you shouldn’t bring this up and constantly tries to distract you from this activity, believing that these memories should be forgotten.
- You instinctively cling to him like a little puppy of a beloved owner. Leon calmly accepts your desire for intimacy with him (not intimacy), so he tries to provide any attention you need.
- Takes you to sessions with psychotherapists and makes sure that you take medications to quickly recover.
- Leon asks to refrain from studying for now. Knowing that the kidnapping took place after classes at college, he is afraid that you will remember the events themselves and you will feel worse, so he suggests that you rest or study at home.
- He cooks food for you (probably simple dishes since I’m sure he doesn’t know how to cook), reads books with you and watches movies and TV shows in the evening, but Leon carefully checks the material before watching.
- Leon will learn different types of therapy thanks to which you can safely express your feelings. Of course he will consult a doctor.
- He really provides incredible support coupled with adequate treatment, thanks to which he sees that you are slowly but surely getting better.
- Leon rejoices at your small achievements in therapy.
- You talk to each other a lot, but subconsciously or not, you don't want to go anywhere or sleep without him. Leon always falls asleep later so he becomes a big spoon in your bed, shielding you from your fears.
- Do you have a fear of the dark? Leon will have no problem turning on the night light just to make you feel safe.
- He will never blame you for your slow recovery. Yes, he's been through a lot of crap and Raccoon City has mostly broken him, but he takes your traumatic experiences very seriously. Leon is not the kind of person who can one day say that he has been through more crap than you.
- If you have a panic attack or react to some trigger that scares you terribly, Leon will immediately rush to calm you down and create a safe zone.
- Of course, he's still a government agent. He can easily be called on a mission at any time, so he will ask someone to look after you. If it's not Claire, he'll just find someone like a nurse.
- However, he will be with you at all critical stages to get through together. You can always lean on his shoulder, especially for you.

It’s the middle of the week, have some dancing turtles
Spoilers below as I gush about my Mutant Mayhem Monday experience 🤗 please feel free to gush with me I wanna hear other people’s thoughts too!
Tumblr media
First off… When Seth wanted to put the teenager in TMNT he meant it. Like, all the versions act like teenagers, but like Nickelodeon PG stereotypical teens. MM turtles were the realest PG-13 outta pocket 21st century teenagers I’ve ever seen and I love that shit because it’s the first time I actually felt like I was around the kids in middle school and high school again with the way they talk. Kinda appreciate Superfly cussing too? Like idk it’s Ice Cube and this villain goes hard tryna kill some teenage turtles he formally saw as his lil cousins, let the grown mutant cuss
Also uh, was not expecting to be sad so early in the movie? Like I could tell from the trailers it was gon be an emotional rollercoaster but shit like ten minutes in and these turtles are fuckin depressed. And to see it really hit me because in every other version (except for Bayverse) the turtles literally never let not being part of the human world get to them. In the shows especially they’re so well adjusted and never bothered by sticking to the shadows. Then there’s Rise where they pretty much go out whenever they want and indulge in most of the human world stuff they want to. For these guys to be so stunted and desperate to have more freedom was so heart wrenching. Especially when Splinter grounds them for a whole month and the reality sinks in of how much they know the life they want isn’t an option for them
Wasn’t expecting any kind of ship or romance but that crush Leo has on April hit me like truck because…… holy crap the Leo-April pair has never been a thing? On top of that this is only the second on screen black April we’ve seen and I’ve been a Leo kinnie across the board since day one so to see this combo of my favorite character liking a black girl is making me lose my mind 🥲 and like it got me thinking of several of my favorite shows and the single characters I kin in those and if they’ve ever had black love interests and it’s just still not a common normalized thing honestly.
Tumblr media
I’m sure a lot of people aren’t excited for the prospect of ships coming back (especially after 2012 scarred us) but as a Leo lover and black girl it got me so excited to see something like this. I’m just hopeful and optimistic they won’t mess it up like a lot of shows do. The “this is just as friends line” already makes me a little worried bc that trope never has a good history but I have faith they’ll handle things tastefully and not make it toxic or messy
MURDER THE SHREKS!
“I assume you’d wanna be on camera. ‘Cause you have, like a very camera ready look…” OKAY SMOOOOOTH LEONARDOOOOOO 👏🏽
Could not stop laughing while he was shooting his shot my face was literally donnie’s restraining myself from bursting out laughing
Tumblr media
Just a couple of my favorite questions that April wrote down for them:
“Do you carry salmonella?” Look I still don’t know wtf salmonella is but it’s the second time a TMNT iteration has joked about it so I’m starting to think it has something specifically to do with turtles 👀
“Have you caught covid?” Oml covid exists in this world
“Are you the source of covid?” OUT OF LINE 💀
“How many people has the red bandana turtle stabbed? Does he need therapy?” Yes.
“Does sunlight cause you to burst into flames?” They’re- they’re not vampires? 😂
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Leon Ardo deserves the world and whatever he wants in it give him everything 😭
Tumblr media
I will never understand what made Donnie laugh so hard at the name Nardo other than it being because it’s his sibling and that it bothers Leo lmao
All imma say about the puke scene is that I’m glad I heard an “out of context” spoiler about it bc I knew exactly when to look away and I’m glad I did bc the scene lasted for so long??? 😀❓But hey at least I had Unwritten to listen too while I was sparing my eyes 😂
The sequence of them going around and shaking down those gangs and Superfly’s connections. BAD. ASS. And each of them got their own moments to shine? Loved it. Like they each even got to take point and have their moments where they got to kick in the door lol. And the fight scenes were just, muah. Chef’s kiss, they all looked amazing taking grown ass adults down together
Okay Splinter definitely gets the best dad award for putting together that little surprise party, with all the celebrity Chris’s and pretending to wait on them 🥺 so pure. It did make me sad the guys immediately left and you can just see such a sad dejected look on Splinter’s face, knowing he can’t provide what his kids really want or make them happy enough without it 🥲 At the very least they say thanks and that they appreciate but I would’ve at least stayed for a lil bit and gone along with it, Splinter just looked so excited about it and it was so sweet 😭
And he doesn’t even get upset though he knows they’re hiding something, he just says he’ll help them if they’ve gotten into trouble, which is something I’m sure almost every kid has wanted instead of having the kind of relationship where they’re more scared of telling their parents they messed up instead of handling it on their own
I love how musical Superfly’s family is 😂 Ray Filet just starts sing-introducing his name and Mondo and the other couple mutants when they drive with in the car trying to find music they could all sing to together 🥹 not to mention the musical references Superfly makes later that I’ll get to. “Kinda don’t wanna murder everyone on Earth, I just kinda wanna sing” Me too bruh.
Raph immediately going “goochi goochi goo” and playing peekaboo with Genghis frog is so underrated that boy has such a soft side he’s not even that afraid of showing at times, and maybe it’s continuing the trope of Raph having a soft spot for pets/animals? Who knows 😌
Tumblr media
Yo I was kinda shook when that government guy knocked Leo out and he just fell unconscious on the ground 😶 Like we’re used to seeing the authorities be brutal especially in movies like this but that’s a whole teenager? You just assaulted a minor? 🙂 Crazy
Also I know it’s sad they got captured and drained painfully but Mikey in that scene was hilarious 😂 like even the way he was dramatically crying and Leo was just started to cry with him like “iM sO sOrRy mIkEeEeEy! 😭” gold. When one of his children is hurting Leo hurts too. One of my favorite moments 🤣
Tumblr media
They literally started singing BTS while being tortured they’re so unserious but like in a serious way to them and I love it. Also the fact that they did it just to make Donnie feel better? So pure. Like Raph of all turtles offered to sing while being drained of blood (bc I refuse to use the m word 💀)
The way Splinter snuck in and soloed literal government soldiers single handedly? Badass. Never loved seeing a Splinter save his sons so much 🥹
“But it’s the only way we’ll be accepted.”
“No! We accept you!”
“You can come live with us! We accept you!”
“WE VIBE!”
Oml they’re so puuuuure 😭 I really thought this was gonna be a moment where the guys invite them all to come live with them and Splinter was gonna be like ‘aha 😬 whoa slow down there’ but damn nah he was just as enthusiastic as them inviting all those mutants to come live in their home forever “The more the merrier!” Like ugh he just loves finding family like Baxter Stockman and we see where the guys got their loving nature from 🥹
The amount of his soul Mikey put into that BROSEEEPH was so real like I’ve never heard the name broseph be said in any other way, I’m so glad they put that moment in there
“New York, New York!” “I’m the king of New York!”
Oml superfly’s a Broadway baby 🤗 he’s a big bad villain marching through time square and talking about King Kong but he’s fill gonna nerd out and make his musical theatre references 😂
“For once in your life you didn’t sound lame. You actually started to sound like a leader”
“That was really heartfelt Raph”
I love the Leo Raph dynamic in this movie. Like they don’t always agree or understand each other but they will show love towards one another and show mutual appreciation
Something about any of the turtles shells cracking always gets to me for some reason like those are some serious permanent injuries so I want to see if they do anything special with that in the sequel or show maybe 🤔 And I couldn’t tell if all of theirs cracked or just one, and if so which turtle it was. I think Leo or Raph. I feel like it was Leo but Raph’s are also starting to have a trend of getting cracks in their shells so 🤷🏽‍♀️
Also I do not want to judge what other people like to wear but why are Raph and Donnie the only normal dressed ones 😭 like Mikey looks like he’s going on vacation and Leo looks like he’s going to clock in at Best Buy 😂 tell me it’s because they have limited resources for clothes lmao. HE’S LITERALLY WEARING A LANYARD
Tumblr media
Them taking off the masks was crazy honestly… like them deciding not to wear them made my brain pause until I realize they’re kids going to school now and not being ninjas all the time… they don’t need them anymore. I’m just so pleased with the fact that this movie was willing to do what all other iterations weren’t. I see why they’re getting a sequel and show already, these guys and the plot development deserve so much more exploration
Maybe I missed something in the beginning but I’m wondering where Stockman went. Like is he still in custody? Did he die? Because not seeing him again that’s what I assumed but we only saw him get arrested or whatever, so if anything I don’t get why Superfly and the others wouldn’t try to break him out 🤔 I was surprised they didn’t make him a villain though, but I’m pretty happy about him getting to be a more optimistic kind character tho
SHREDDER HAD ME SHOOK LIKE THE ARMOR ALREADY LOOKED SO COOL AND I WAS NOT EXPECTING THEM TO GET THE BIG BAD INVOLVED AHHHH I���M SO READY TO SEE THEM REACT TO THIS ANGRY GIANT TIN CAN
Although I do wonder if Shredder’s gonna have some personal gripe with them since they have a different backstory he doesn’t seem to be a part of. And shit now that they’re public and in school it’s gonna be so much easier for him to go after them 😅 pluses and minuses…
The soundtrack: golden. Cultured. Nothing but range. Goes from a 90’s rap song to Natasha Bedingfield’s soulful 2000’s song. Most movies only ever have all pop mainstream songs or only rap songs because they think they can’t mix but MM does it effortlessly. The turtles are so versatile not just with music genres but they make old and new references ‘cause they’re well rounded kings 💪🏽 Between rizz, Adele, broski, Hey Arnold, K-Pop, Ferris Bueller, etc… I mean Donnie’s literally doing the sprinkler and the funky chicken in that gif up top 😂 they’re born in 2008 I doubt any kids today know about those dances anymore
Clearly I have all the thoughts and feelings about these boys and the movie, but I think this is probably my favorite TMNT movie? I’ve loved all of them but I think this one definitely brings me the most comfort fr

BNHA Headcanons: What kind of person they would fall in to and how they'd fall in love.
Shoto Todoroki
• Now, we all know how Shoto grew up. He didn't have a happy childhood. He's got Mommy and Daddy issues and even if he's working on it, Shoto's past would definitely affect the way he falls in love.
• He would definitely fall in love to a home maker. Someone mature, someone gentle and good with kids, a girl who's good at cooking, a girl who's soft spoken and all that.
• Shoto wants someone with a positive thinking. His childhood is full of negative vibes and events so meeting someone who's always positive would help him so much.
• Girl you're not therapy but every time he sees you, it feels like everything bad that happened didn't happen at all. Having you by his side makes him hopeful.
• He's young but Shoto is the "date to marry" kind of guy. The moment you two started dating, this kid will imagine having a family with you.
• Shoto is 100% a romantic. This is another visible reflection of his past in his life and personality. Since he saw his parents relationship, he didn't want to be anything like his Dad. He will treat you the way he wished his Mom was treated. I mean, he'll spoil you so be prepared.
• Shoto's love language? Gift giving, acts of service, words of affirmation, physical touch, quality time and everything you could ever think of. He's starving in all forms of love so please spoil him.
• 100% possessive. Not in an unhealthy way, Shoto values you so much, coz you're everything that he wants and need in his life. He's afraid that someone else will take you from him if he takes his eye off of you.
• Shoto will be 100/10 boyfie. Please be nice to him.
—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•
Shoto often wonders how it feels to fall in love. He's seen how it is in television shows and movies that his classmates watch in their free time but he's intrigued on how it happens in real life.
He didn't witness it in his own home so he have no idea.
But he started wondering about all of this because of you. Now, you're great friends and you guys get along really well. Like Deku, he can open up to you pretty easily but Shoto started feeling strange, there's something different with the way he sees you and he knows it.
It all started when he got sick. Yes, Shoto gets sick, even though it's rare. He has a hard time dealing with sickness. He would have nightmares or he would repeatedly call out for his Mom while he sleeps.
After classes, you went straight to the dorm and check up on Shoto just to see him lying on his bed as he calls his Mom over and over again, his voice cracks as if he's close to crying.
"Hey, hey, Shoto-kun. Wake up..." You whispered softly as you gently shake his shoulders to wake him up. His eyes slowly opened and he let out a small gasp of surprise as he looked up at you.
"YN? I-I what are you doing here?"
You smiled warmly and helped him get up on his bed. "Class just finished and I was gonna give you my notes but it looks like you need something else. How are you?" You asked. You were frowing for a bit, your breathing was quite heavy and your eyes were unfocused. Shoto could sense your worry so he gave you a smile to calm you down. "I'm fine, I'll be good to go to class tomorrow." You shook your head and held his hand. "You don't look fine at all. Wait for me here, alright?" Before he could even answer, you already made your way out of his room and he chuckled quietly, it's his first time seeing you panic like that.
When you went back, you were carrying a tray with food on it. "I cooked some porridge for you and I brought some meds." You told him as you place the tray in the table beside his bed. You sat on the edge of his bed, you picked up the spoon and you met his eyes. "Say 'ahh', Sho." Shoto was hesistant at first but he still opened his mouth and let you feed him.
"You know, I'm well enough to feed myself." He said after drinking some water. "I know, but I want to take care of you." You answered. Shoto looked at you as you look at the medicines you brought with you. "These are the ones recommended for someone with your quirk. I was told it's natural for you to have an unstable temperature every now and then because of your quirk. And all we can do is try and regulate your body temp." You handed him a tablet and the glass of water. Shoto just looked at it but your disappointed sigh made him take the meds from your hand.
After drinking his meds, you placed a hand on his forehead and your eyes widened when you noticed how cold he was. "Are you okay? Aren't you cold?" Shoto nods his head, "I'm good. It's just because of my quirk." He lied down and you still couldn't be at ease knowing that this happens to him. Knowing his family history, you'd know that Shoto wouldn't let anyone else help him whenever he's sick.
"Refrain from using your quirk. Even if you're cold, you can't use your fire to heat yourself up. Just wrap yourself in a blanket for now." You tucked him in before you stood up and made your way to his cabinet. Your eyes scanned his belongings, looking for particular clothes and when you saw it you whispered a small yey before you went back to Shoto's bed.
"Wear this jacket, you can just take it off once you start heating up."
Shoto finds himself feeling much better, he was listening to your stories about how the classes went today but he drifted off to sleep, it must be the medicines but the last thing he heard was you ranting about Bakugo's attitude.
You noticed Shoto's lack of response and when you looked at him, you smiled. He's finally asleep, you brushed the strands of his hair that covers his eye. You gently traced his scar and you felt bad. He's gone through so much in such a young age.
"You deserve some rest, Sho-kun." You whispered before leaning down to kiss his forehead.
It was only one of the many occasions that you've made Shoto feel like he's so worthy to be love and taken care of. He was not used to that kind of kindness and gentleness, he didn't know how to react properly but he just finds himself wanting more of your love and care.
He was injured after a villain attack. It was nothing major and serious but you showed up on the school's clinic after he got treatment for Recovery Girl, you were bawling your eyes out, checking him up as you look for any injuries.
"I'm fine, stop crying."
"Stop charging towards the enemy like that! You didn't know their quirks but they know yours! You wouldn't know if they can—" he hugged you tightly to shut you up. He's smiling, he's smiling like a goddamn idiot as he felt you bury your head on his neck, still crying, whispering how worried you were and he loved it. He loved how you fit so perfectly in his arms on that moment.
"Hush now, my love. I'm safe."

Babe, with the most kindness I can muster, I need to see more Steve with a prosthetic leg!!! 🫶
I only saw the beginning of this and got so scared that someone was telling me i got something horribly wrong or something, or that it was complete shit, BUT I AM SO RELIEVED THIS IS NOT THAT
here you go babes, some prosthetic!steve hc's
- when he gets a new socket (the part that holds his leg) he gets the party and family to draw little guys on it BEFORE they put the outer shell on, that way the drawings are protected
- he's got insanely good balance
- when the socket rubs his leg raw, bc they can do that sometimes, hes really good at hoping place to place on one leg even though it scares the shit out of everyone else
- fresh amputee baby steve cried for hours and hours bc his mom said that it ruined her perfect boy and he was so scared that she didn't love her anymore.
Drabble:
(different universe than the one i just posted)
robin was spending the night at steve's house. they were best friends, and it was their first sleep over, and robin couldn't tell you how excited she was.
she didn't get to have these when she was younger, the other girls deeming her too weird to be invited. she had it all planned out!
they built a fort, ordered pizza, watched movies, and even talked about girls together! and maybe steve talked about boys too... who knows?
it had gone so well, it was going so well.
until they were getting ready for bed, and a thump came from the bathroom.
and then "uhhh. rob? could you... i need help." steve's voice floated through the door, it was hesitant. she put her hand on the handle, "wait!" he said, "uh. before you come in, i. well."
oh shit.
this was the part where he kicked her out, says he isn't comfortable with a lesbo in his bedroom, oh god, she was freaking out, she- "maybe it better if you just come in here..." steve voice cut through her panic. why did he sound nervous? he was the one kicking her out!
but she opened the door and there was steve sitting on the tile floor. "what?"
steve blanched, "i um. i need help standing. i..." he murmured something she didn't catch. "what? why do you need help standing up steve just get-" she paused the motion of bending down when she noticed it.
"where the fuck is your other leg?"
and steve just... breaks, he's laughing so hard that there are tears coming out of his eyes. "that was so much better than any other reaction i've gotten." he's still laughing, and he's clapping now. robins only a little embarrassed, and she thinks he looks like a seal.
"sorry, sorry. just- whew. that was great. i uh- i lost my leg when i was 10. tore it up in a car accident. so there it goes! no more leg. uh. can you help me stand up now?"
and she's still a little shocked. so she silently helps him to his bed, grabbing his prosthetic out of the bathroom where it had fallen and places it next to the bed wordlessly.
she sits on the edge of the bed.
"did i ruin it? is... am i too weird?"
and that breaks robin out of her thoughts, "what?! no way. sorry, sorry, i was just thinking. i never... pegged you as- well. you always just looked so. normal." she says nervously.
"well. yeah, uh. here comes another sad steve fact!" he sing songs before continuing, "my parents really wanted me to remain as normal as possible after the accident so it was a lot of physical therapy... and a lot of emotional therapy... and yeah! they couldn't have me losing a leg effect their whole 'perfect harringtons' image."
"oh. steve..."
"it's okay! really. because now i've got you, and dustin! and even like... mike. so. yeah."
"i mean. missing a leg is pretty cool."
"rob..."
"no really! it seems kinda like... spooky. but in a good way! imagine the pranks you could do!"
and what started out as a sad confessional, turned into an excited prank planning session.

Caught up to the fic!! Absolutely fascinated by all the queer/punk/poc history here, since I don't know much myself. Very sweet chapter as well.
Unrelated question - mostly - but why is it common fanon to depict Noir as the more scarred up of various spiderpeople? Naturally everyone has their fair share of fights, though the only we see sustaining any marks is Peter B and his misaligned nose. Personally, I've taken it as Noir Peter not healing as cleanly due to it being Spider God stuff over Weird Radioactive Healing Factor stuff. Thoughts?
thank you so much!! i’m glad you liked it, & hope the ending was satisfying for ya <3
short answer: hot
long answer, plus a map of my idea of noir’s scars: under readmore :)
i’m not a devout spidey comic/movie fan or a doctor. this is based on conjecture and minimal research!
when i came up with my unmasked noir ideas, i wasn’t influenced by fanon—i hadn’t seen any other fan art, not even when itsv came out. but i can think of a good few reasons that scarred noir is a popular headcanon: evidence of what he’s been through makes him feel more tangible/relatable, the visual difference enhances his thematic individuality as distinct from other spider-people (especially other Peter Parkers), self-consciousness can explain why he doesn’t take off his mask in itsv even around other spiders.
all perfectly valid and interesting reasons! but the first two reasons are doylist and the last one is missing a crucial question: why does he have scars? unless a wound is severe, gets infected, or gets lucky, it won’t usually scar. facial injuries especially need to be really bad to leave a mark. and of course most if not all other spider-people have the healing factor. so what gives??
i like the spider god’s curse influences healing factor idea; it opens up some nice angsty possibilities regarding an inability to Be “Fixed;” no matter how much he tries, he can’t erase/forget what’s happened to him. but i also enjoy the bandaging someone up after a fight genre of fic, and am annoyingly pedantic, so my personal working theory is that the healing factor is not a doctor with ten plus years of experience and an accurate understanding of human anatomy. when a bone really badly breaks, it has to be reset or it’ll heal wrong. to me, the healing factor doesn’t know what ‘right’ is, only ‘fast’ and ‘effective.’ it’s an accelerant, not a substitute for medicine.
so let’s establish the baseline. modern spideys either receive modern medical attention or the injury is superficial enough that they don’t require it. even poverty-stricken peter parkers get rushed to the hospital, because fictional doctors Don’t Care About The Money and/or peter is dolled up in spider gear and who’s going to ignore a visibly beat-up celebrity hero?? plus i honestly believed peter b’s nose was just genetics or smthn. my nose is misaligned and it’s never been broken to my knowledge
to compare, noir lives in 1933 and, far as i can tell, doesn’t rlly garner the same fame and respect from the public as modern spideys do. in the 30s, medicine was meh (they had x-rays but didn’t rlly consider radiation much of a threat, penicillin was still in its infancy, polio was a huge threat, etc) but was also, more importantly, far too expensive for most people suffering during the Great Depression. whatever treatment noir receives after a fight, if any, would look way different from ours. that means his healing factor, which can’t differentiate scars from normal skin or a misaligned bone from a whole one, would be inefficiently assisted or left alone. it would leave its history behind.
on the infectious disease side of things, it’s probably much easier for even noir to recover from less physical ailments like the flu and pneumonia—spider healing factor likely remembers and codes for immunity better than regular immune systems—but without modern drug therapies he’d still be worse for wear, ie internal scarring. mans would have a shorter-than-average parker lifespan if not for the pseudo-immortality of the Spider God
anyway. all this to say, here’s my personal map of parker’s scars. crop tank and daisy dukes to keep tumblr off my ass <3
Tumblr media
(tbh this is more for my reference than anyone else’s, i’m sick of looking through my art of Just His Forearms to keep my details consistent, but maybe someone will find it interesting lol)

One word/One sentence prompt thing; "Steve's Eddie the Bat plush"...does that count? Just Steve having a bat plush that reminds him of Eddie 🖤🦇🖤🦇
I have to tell you, this little bat plushie made my plot bunny go rabid! This is insanely long! I hope you enjoy it!
---
Steve stared down the candy apple in annoyance. They looked okay at the vendor's table, but Steve was pretty sure Granny Smiths didn't have an onion aftertaste. What he wouldn't give to be back home and have one of Mrs. Byers candy apples.
At that moment, he should have been eating pizza and a ton of good candy at the scary movie marathon at the Munson's new place. He should be passing around the Tupperware of his peanut butter chocolate chip cookies to his friends. Instead, he was hours away, three states over, eating a mediocre candy apple and hanging out at some Fall Carnival with a girl named Kaitlyn.
Don't mistake this. Steve Harrington was not on a date.
He had not been on a date with a chic in many months. Say...before Spring Break? The ready excuse was all the trauma everyone experienced. Another was all of the doctors visits, recovery, and endless volunteer hours. Who had time to date when Max needed to get to physical therapy and FEMA sent in another case of canned goods for the food bank? When did he have time to flirt with the ladies if he was constantly surrounded by kids? When would he have time to hang out with his adult friends?
Plus, as Steve had come to realize (after many, many car conversations with Robin), he was kinda done with meaningless relationships. Steve wanted the real deal. He wanted to settle down. Steve didn't want a hookup. He wanted a lifetime of love.
Yes, these were all very good excuses. Ones that even Robin believed when he would turn a cute girl down.
But the truth was that Steve *was* ready to date.
Had been for months now.
Maybe, kinda already was?!?
He just didn't know if the person he wanted to be with felt the same way.
You see, Steve came to the realization that he madly was in love with Eddie Munson.
In his defense, he didn’t know what he was feeling right away.
Steve and Eddie shared a hospital room when they got back from the Upside Down. While Eddie had been in worse shape, both of them had been bitten by the bats. They had to be quarantined together for 96 hours before Steve was cleared to go. And go he did....to take a shower and change his clothes. He was right back after that, visiting Eddie and Max.
It turned out that Dustin had been onto something (the ego boost for that, Jesus Christ), trying to get them to hang out. Contrary to outward appearances, Steve and Eddie had a lot in common. When you get past all of the high school bullshit, it was obvious that they could have been great friends before all this. So, they made up for lost time.
When he and Eddie became friends, like actual friends, and not just linked by the kids and trauma, Steve thought that what he was feeling was the joy and connection of having a best friend. Someone he could unapologetically be a dude with. He loved Robin to bits, but there was something special about bonding over fart jokes and impromptu wrestling matches in a living room. While he and Tommy H had been close, they were never *this* close. It was similar to how he and Robin cemented into their friendship, but just...more, if that were even possible.
He actually felt *guilty* for a while because he felt like he was best friend-cheating on Robin. It broke his heart to think that she would ever feel like second best or that she wasn't as important in his life, because she was! He wanted to spend time with her. She was still his best friend, his twin. Robin was like an extension of his own body.
But, with Eddie...it was just *different*. There was this need, the constant craving to be as close to him as humanly possible. An ache that was only soothed by having him by his side.
And it wasn’t just him, either. If Steve was a clingy friend, then Eddie was a fucking koala. Where one would go, so would the other, much to the amusement and annoyance of the other people in their lives. Their whole ragtag group liked to spend time with each other. Of course they would both be there too. And, sure, it was expected to see Steve taking Eddie to his physical therapy appointments. Wayne usually had to work. It wasn't a weird jump that Eddie and Steve would be at Max's together either.
But...Steve got some strange looks at the Corroded Coffin practices for a while. Eddie definitely got strange looks helping Steve sort out clothes and canned goods at the food bank. Steve let Eddie host D&D at his house, and Eddie let Steve put a basketball hoop over the Munson's new driveway.
When they did have to part, Eddie would get all dramatic about missing him, and while Steve rolled his eyes at his antics, he couldn’t help the bashful grin on his face. Eddie missed him. Eddie counted the time, loudly, to anyone who would listen, how long they were apart. (And he was pretty sure he was always right, because Steve counted too. He wasn't the best at math, but it was always close or the same to what Steve counted. He would even tell Eddie, which always pull a curl over his face.)
When Mike said that normal friends don't pine like some war widow when their friend went to the grocery store, Steve...started to figure out that they maybe weren't best friends. Best friends don't have to force themselves to part ways at night and sleep in their own beds, alone, only to sleep and nap on a couch together the next day. Normally, best friends don't find excuses to touch and hold onto each other and hold hands in the car. Best friends do give each other nicknames, but usually not "Sweetheart" or "Baby Love".
Best friends don't want to kiss their friends.
So when Robin had absolutely enough of not having Steve time and dragged him off to defend her best friend title, it was Steve that said, "Robbie... I'm freaking out. I'm not sure if he and I are Platonic with a capital P. Something's going on...and I'm kinda in love with him. "
Robin, wide-eyed, said "Oh. Oh! That's completely different!" and demanded to know every detail of what she had missed.
So, why was Steve hours away, three states over, at some Fall Carnival with a girl named Kaitlyn?
Easy.
His parents called.
As grown up as Steve was, there was still a part of him that was the eager boy, wanting to get their approval and attention.
They had been back to Hawkins only once since the "earthquake", and it wasn’t even for him. It was to get an estimate on the property damage. (They had been there two days and eleven hours. Eddie barreled down the driveway and nearly crushed his ribs when they left town. And Steve could have sworn Eddie laid a barely there kiss to the top of his head. They later watched Murder, She Wrote and cuddled on the couch. It was the most content he had been in a long time.)
On the day that Steve decided he was going to talk to Eddie and figure out what they were doing, his parents called and invited him to their business trip. They had a round trip ticket. They said they would love to see him.
He was so torn. He didn't want to leave the kids, or Robin, or especially Eddie...but they were his parents.
It was Hopper, of all people, that told him to take the break and see his folks. "You have been running yourself ragged, Steve. The kids will keep Munson busy. Go eat some fancy shrimp cocktail and remind the Harringtons that they have a son."
The airport was...hard. He honestly wanted to stuff Robin and Eddie in his carry-on, and maybe Dustin in the overhead bin. There were fucking tears, and laughter at the fucking tears. But Steve did get on the plane.
The first day there nice. Fall in Pennsylvania is really pretty. The hotel was five star. He went to the hotel's spa with his mom. She took him to lunch and dinner.
He didn't see his dad until the next day's brunch.
And that's when he was told that he would be spending time with Kaitlyn Caissiere, the young daughter of his new business partner.
At first, Steve was terrified that his parents were trying to set him up with this girl, and then horrified at the idea that maybe he was actually being pimped out to "entertain" her.
But, the real truth, while a relief, was annoying.
"Always the God damn babysitter." He grumbled.
That's right. Steve was there to babysit the most annoying preteen he had ever met. And he knew Mike Wheeler as a preteen.
Kaitlyn was a spoiled brat.
A spoiled brat with a ton of money and an itinerary.
The worst kind.
"By 8:00pm you must win me a stuffed animal. If you don't, I will tell Daddy that he should not do business with your dad."
"Yeah, yeah kid. I got it. Get you a stuffed animal."
He had been following her schedule for the past couple of days. Thankfully, he would be flying out the next day. He just needed to keep tabs on the she-devil, and "cater to her every whim" as his dad had said.
Walking towards the games, they passed by a fortune tellers tent.
Kaitlyn stepped on his heel. "Ow! What the hell?"
"I wanna stop here! I want my fortune read!"
"But this isn't on your list-"
"Let’s go now!"
Steve looked at the sign. Fortunes cost $5.00. A little steep, but it wasn't his money. Along with Kaitlyn watching came a wab of cash that was more than four of his paychecks from Family Video.
Kaitlyn insisted Steve stand outside of the tent while getting her fortune told. As she went into the tent, another came out. There were actually two people working the tent, but this older lady stepped out for a smoke break. When she realized she didn't have a lighter, Steve pulled out his own and offered it to her.
Taking a drag from her cigarette, she turned her head and smiled at him. "I like you. You remind me of my grandson."
Steve thanked her before pitching the candy apple into the garbage can like a three pointer.
The lady looked him over. "Sonny, since you are a kind young man and dealing with that child, I'm going to give you a free fortune."
"Oh really, ma'am. That's not necessarily."
"Oh hush! Now, watch the smoke."
Steve felt silly watching this stranger's cigarette smoke. He didn't exactly believe in fortune telling. But then again, he has seen crazier things.
Steve watched as the smoke took a form. He looked closer. "What the fu-"
The smoke took shape as a perfect arrow, pointing left.
"The answers you seek will be found over there. You will know what to do."
Well, what the hell did that mean?
He soon found out.
When Kaitlyn was done berating the fortune teller for getting her future wrong, Steve steered her toward the games. Which ironically was also where the arrow pointed.
Kaitlyn decided that Steve would win her a unicorn from a milk bottle toss. It took him seven tries on the rigged game before he finally won the damn thing.
"That was actually kind of pathetic, you know? Good thing you don't have a girlfriend to get a prize for. We would be here all night!"
Steve knew a challenge, and couldn't let that stand.
"That is because you picked a game that isn't in my skill set."
He looked around and saw a basketball throwing game in the distance with what looked like Halloween plushies.
"There! That's my game. I bet I can win a prize in one shot."
Kaitlyn drew up her nose. "I don't want any of those prizes. Yuck."
"Then it's for me."
She checked her paper. "I will allow one plushie for you. Any more and I will tell my daddy you stole them from me."
Steve was too busy at first looking at the distance of the rim to see what all the prizes were. But he stopped in his tracks when he did.
This was a game he could win easy. And there, on the top row, were a line of black and purple plushie bats with "Ozzy" stitched in lurid orange on the belly.
That...was definitely a sign. He also needed to have one of those bats, and pronto!
The man running the booth gave him a smile. "You a fan of Black Sabbath?"
Steve smacked the bills down with a grin. "Sir, I am tonight."
And just like he thought he would, Steve won the bat easily.
The man handed it to him. "Ha! Good aim! This little guy was meant for you"
As the man gave him the cute plushie bat, Steve knew he had his answer.
Thank you, fortune teller lady.
---
Eddie was waiting at the airport for him. The kids wanted to be there, but they were not allowed to skip school. Robin also wanted to be there, but work wouldn't budge. A "Welcome Home" party in Steve's honor would be had later that evening.
Man, Steve loved his friends.
Eddie held up an obnoxious cardboard sign with his name written in red craft glitter glue. A sign that Steve threw down to hug the bastard as tightly as he could.
"Welcome home, Big Boy! Your chariot awaits!"
On the drive back to Hawkins, Steve told Eddie about his trip. Eddie liked that he got to get the "Pampering he deserves" at the spa, and fumed loudly at his parents having him go out of town just to play babysitter.
"They had to take you away from your home, your *family*, from everything you've ever known-"
"-to toss you a ward?! Your parents are a real hobnobbing dick-weasles."
"Bit dramatic there, Eds-"
"-for 76 hours and 34 minutes-"
"-Wait, where did you get that extra hour?-"
Steve laughed so hard he cried at "dick-weasels."
When they passed the Welcome to Hawkins sign, Steve asked Eddie to drive them to the rock quarry. It was one of the few places they would escape to just drink beer, listen to some tunes, and just...be together.
When they parked, they sat in silence for a minute, before Steve grabbed his carry-on from the back.
"Whatcha got there, Stevie?"
"Its actually something I wanted to show you."
Eddie rubbed his hands together in excitement. "Ooo...what wares do you bring me, traveler?"
Steve shook his head in exasperated fondness. "You're so weird."
Pausing for a second, he brought out the plushie bat. Eddie gasped and snatched it out of his hands.
"Steve! This is the cutest fucking bat I have ever seen. And it's name is Ozzy! Whoever made this has taste!"
"Yeah, it's a carnival toy. I won that."
Eddie smiled at him briefly before his large brown eyes went back to his soft new friend. "Of course you did. Steve Harrington: Slayer of Demon Bats and Cheap Carnival Games!"
Steve laughed, but felt nervous inside. This was it. Make or break.
"Yeah. I just had to get him. He reminded me of my boyfriend back home. I really missed him, but Ozzy here helped."
Eddie froze. He looked back up at Steve again, eyes wide as saucers.
"B-boyfriend? He reminds you of your boyfriend?"
Steve licked his lips, gaining some confidence that Eddie's eyes tracked the motion.
"Yeah, boyfriend. Soul mate. Idiot I love and co-parent seven kids with."
Eddie hands were shaking. He carefully placed Ozzy in Steve's lap before cupping his face.
"Sweetheart. Oh, my love, your boyfriend missed you too!"
Eddie surged forward and finally, finally kissed Steve. It was like coming home. Steve let out a happy whine, and leaned forward into the kiss. Fingers slipped into hair. Worshipping kisses were laid upon cheeks and foreheads. Hickeys were nibbled and lovingly sucked into necks and collarbone.
---
Later, at Steve's Welcome Home party, they showed up together, hands entwined. Steve had Eddie's mood ring on his left ring finger. Still, nobody knew they were officially a couple until they saw the hickeys.
That night, the boys went to bed together, content that they no longer had to hide the extent of their feelings for each other. Taking a break from making out on the bed, Eddie placed Ozzy on the chair and turned him to face the wall. He didn't need to see what his dads were about to do.

Worm Arc 12 thoughts:
Brian needs to watch the Barbie movie holy shit! (I understand the story takes place in 2011 and the movie doesn't exist there)
Just like, fuck get off Taylor's back. She is playing it too safe but also being too aggressive. Moving too fast but also not being aggressive enough! AHHHHHHHH!
Seriously, nearly every time Brian showed up in this arc I was yelling at him. Dude. Just back off.
Skitter fucking just, killing thousands of rats in a few minutes is absolutely terrifying. God I love her.
Hookwolf is a dick. I can't believe everyone else went along with him and gave the Travelers and the Undersiders shitty choices like that. I mean that's not true, I can believe it I'm just mad.
I legit forgot Imp existed until Tattletale mentioned leaving her at the meeting as a spy. I love how the way her power works combined with the writing style means she just disappears for the readers as well.
Loved seeing more of the Travelers and more Noelle. Excited to learn more about her (I don't have great feelings about her long term situation though).
Jack is such a fucking POSER oh my god!
He just. He thinks he's so cool. But he's not. Fucking "this is not an exit" reference and shit.
He is Tobey Maguire Spider-Man from Spider-Man 3. Just thinks he is the coolest shit. Everyone just has to accept it cause he got fancy knife powers.
Tattletale just fucking full confidence fucking with the Nine while standing right in front of them. She clearly knew it was high risk but she took it and she got results, spoiling Jacks plan with Cheri and shit.
That said, AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! MY BABY SOMEBODY HELP MY BABY! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! (Ok she's not like, my baby, that's Taylor. But she's still my baby.)
LOOK AT MY FUCKING DAUGHTER! FUCKING LOOK AT HER! HOW MANY PEOPLE DID SHE SAVE FROM SHATTERBIRD? HUNDREDS? THOUSANDS? SHE IS AMAZING!
She fucking needs therapy though. Saves more people than anyone else could have and is mad because she didn't do enough. God damn Taylor love yourself!
Danny is fine. Besides, he had warning so any injures are basically his fault. Git gud Danny. (Ok look that's a little unfair, but he messed up pretty bad with raising my daughter so I'm allowed to be a little unfair to him I think.)
And look at my daughter again! She goes and organizes people to help the wounded. Takes charge. Gets a cool butch lady that might never show up again to help. I hope she does show up again though.
AND THEN FUCKING MANNEQUIN! AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
After he showed up I said "I don't know how the fuck she's gonna do it, but my daughter is gonna kick your ass". And then like a few paragraphs later I read "I have no idea how the fuck I’m going to do it but I’m going to make you regret that." This made me both happy - fun to say something and have Taylor say almost the same thing - and worried - cause when I said I didn't know how she was going to do it I kinda hoped she had a plan.
But then she fucking does it! She kicks his ass. She steals his arm. SHE RIPS HIS HEAD OFF! GOD DAMN! THAT'S MY FUCKING KID!
I do think she should hire the buff burly guy who helped her rip Mannequin's head off. He clearly has motivation and would be loyal. And maybe I want to see him more. For reasons.
But anyway she fucking wrecks Mannequin, makes him look like he lost a fight with a paint store. Just fucking clowned on him. She is so good.
Then the next day Brian comes in and fully focuses on how stupid it was to fight Mannequin, not really praising that she won or asking if she needs medical help. God damn bud!
But I loved how a fuck ton of people were like "Oh shit she beat Mannequin! I want to work for her." She's going to be so fucking famous soon.
Interlude 1 - Jack is a poser again. Sucks to be the Merchants, can't say I'll miss them. Jack trying to sound all clever with his carrot and sticks thing, but most of what he lists for the other Nine is really obvious. And he misses some stuff as well. Poser. I could lead the Nine better than him (not that I would lead the Nine, just that if I did I would be better than Jack).
Interlude 2 - God damn this is a doozy. Shit ton of Cauldron lore. Battery backstory. Assault backstory. I made a "now kith" joke when they fought for the very first time cause I didn't realize who they were yet. It was supposed to be a joke. I did not want them to end up together. They should not be together. Legend should not have allowed Assault to be on Battery's team. He was a bit of a dick for that. So much Cauldron lore though. I can't put it all here.

Six Weeks After Chemical Attack
It was a cold, grey Saturday morning in Boston. The perfect day for lying around in ratty old pajamas and doing as little as humanly possible. As the only roommate fortunate enough to have the day off, Jackie Varma was already planted on the couch, attempting to do just that... if it weren’t for one interloper. She spread out in an unnaturally long position, pressing her feet firmly into the sole other occupant, hoping he’d get a clue.
He didn’t.
“Oh, for fucks sake, Lahela!” She spat. “Can’t you take a hint?”
Startled, Bryce looked up from his phone. “Huh? What?”
“I’m practically pushing you off the couch, and still, you just sit there.”
“I didn’t notice.” Lifting Jackie’s feet from the side of his thigh, he plopped them onto his lap and grinned. “There, all better now.”
Jackie threw her head back and surrendered with a sigh. “If I’m stuck with you here, I suppose we should at least pick a movie to watch.”
“Sure,” he shrugged. “Wanna wait for Casey to get out of the bathroom so we can pick something together?”
“Casey’s going out. I was supposed to have the place to myself, but noooo...”  
“Out?” He asked with raised brows. “As in outside?”
“No. Out as in outer space,” Jackie quipped. “Of course, outside!”
“Well, that’s great!” Bryce enthused. I mean, she’s been skittish about leaving the apartment since... well, you know... She’s going out... this... this is good!”
Jackie twisted her lips. “I suppose. I just wish she’d go out with someone other than...”
The doorbell rang, interrupting Jackie, and seconds later, a breathless Casey poked her head into the room. 
“Guys!” she huffed. “I’m not ready yet... can you get that for me?”
Jackie crossed her arms with a frown. “No.”
Ignoring her, Casey looked at Bryce with pleading eyes. “Bryce... please?”
Bryce always found it hard to say no to her, and since the attack that multiplied. Still, he was in no hurry to answer. Stretching his back, he looked at Jackie.  
“Carrick?”
“Mmm-hmm,” Jackie hummed.
Bryce rubbed his brow. “She’s been seeing a lot of him... no?”
“He takes her to therapy every Wednesday. If she books an extra visit, he takes her to that, too. Then, once a week, he stops by to take her out for the day."
“Like on a date?”
“She swears it’s not a date.”
“And you believe her?”
Jackie shrugged. She was about to say something when Casey' popped in again.
“GUYS! It’s cold outside! Are you going to let him in?”
"Sure..." Bryce grinned.
“Thank you, Bryce. I should just be another fifteen minutes, tops! And please... be nice to him.”
“Nice?” Bryce was insulted. “I’m always nice!”
“You weren’t the one I was worried about,” Casey smirked.
“Don’t worry,” Bryce winked. “I’ll keep Jackie in line. Go finish up!"
“I will," Casey said, rushing away, "but I reserve the right to worry!”
The door finally swung open, and Tobias seemed surprised—and a little disappointed—that it was Bryce greeting him. “Hey,” he said gregariously. “I didn't expect to see you here.”
Bryce leaned nonchalantly against the door jam, carefully studying his subject. “I’m surprised to see you here.”
An awkward silence lingered until Tobias gestured beyond the door. “Is it OK if I come inside?”
“Oh, sure!” Bryce replied, pushing the door open with his foot. "Casey’s not ready yet, but you can wait in the living room with Jackie and me.”
Jackie stared Tobias down from the minute he walked in, but if he was affected, he didn't show it.
“Jackie,” he nodded. She replied with a stiff nod of her own.
Uncomfortable with the tension, Bryce offered Tobias a drink, which he politely declined.
“You sure? Would you like a little snack, perhaps... Casey said fifteen minutes, but I know that was probably a gross underestimation."
“Thanks,” Tobias smiled. “I appreciate it, but Casey & I are having lunch at Amelia’s, so I want to save my appetite.”
“Amelia’s? In Cambridge?” Bryce asked. " It's Kind of a romantic place for a friendly lunch, no?”
“You think so?” Tobias perplexed. “I mean, it’s a nice place, but it’s not where I’d go if I wanted to impress a date."
“Oh. Where would you go if trying to do that?”
“Well, I don’t know...” the older doctor stalled. “Contessa, maybe? Or O Ya. O Ya is really nice, and you can never go wrong with Menton’s. Why, Bryce? Do you have someone you're trying to impress? I'm happy to give you some tips.”
“No,” Bryce replied, a slightly menacing smile on his lips. I'm just taking notes... in case I ever hear you're taking Casey to one of those places."
Tobias raised a brow, his eyes vacillating between Casey’s two friends. “Uh, did I do something?” he asked.
“How far back am I allowed to go when answering that question?” Jackie snapped.
“Jackie, cut him a break,” Bryce injected, earning him a death glare from his friend.
“Why would I do that?”
“Because Casey takes forever to get ready, but she’s not that slow. Our time is limited... you don’t want to go too far back."
“All right, guys,” Tobias grumbled. “Funs over. If you want to make this quick, how about you just level with me?”
“Fine,” Jackie declared. “What’s going on between you and Casey? You’ve been seeing an awful lot of each other, and I'm not sure I like it."
“Casey is a friend, Jackie. I'm helping her out until she's comfortable taking public transportation again. There is nothing sinister going on."
“And your weekly... dates?” Bryce questioned.
“They’re not... they’re not dates. Look, you both know what she's been going through and how she's still struggling with being in public. But she seems comfortable going out with me... so I'm trying to be there, to help her get to get back to her old self. There are no ulterior motives.”
Bryce turned to Jackie. “You have to admit, she does seem really happy today. I haven’t seen her like that in a while.”
Jackie’s eyes narrowed to tiny slits as Bryce mouthed: “What?”
“So they’re not dates?” She asked pointedly.
“No! At least not in the way you’re suggesting.”
“Do you want them to be?” Bryce followed up.
Tobias pursed his lips. “Is there a reason you're interrogating me?"
“I don’t know,” Bryce replied. “Is there a reason you’re not answering?”
"Your reputation kind of sucks, Carrick. And you already fucked Casey over once. We were the ones who helped her get over that... and we don't want to see it happen again. Especially not now."
“You know,” Tobias chuckled. “Under normal circumstances, it would be pretty insulting for you to be playing overprotective Mom and Dad for a brilliant twenty-seven-year-old woman. But I understand that circumstances haven’t exactly been normal. You’re being good friends, and I don’t blame you for being protective. I know I've made mistakes, and I know she’s in a rough place right now, but I swear to you, I’m only here to help her... not hurt her.”
"Why should we believe you?" Jackie asked.
"Because I know how much I screwed up with her in the past, but Casey means a lot to me. I can't tell you how grateful I am that she's allowed me into her life as a friend... but I promise you... that’s all we are... friends. Casey would never want to be more than that with me."
“And if she did?" Bryce challenged.
“If she did, I'd tell her she's not in an emotional space to make that kind of a decision now. I'd never take advantage of her like that. I've learned a lot of lessons recently myself, and I'm trying to do the right thing. If I wanted to be fucking around, I can name five women off the top of my head that I could be spending the day with... but I’m here... because Casey is important to me, and helping her matters much more."
“You know,” Bryce softened. “I watched you... the night of the attack... before that, my opinion of you was pretty low... but that night, I saw how scared you were. I do believe you when you say you care about her.”
Jackie turned to Bryce with disgust. “You're so damn weak!” Shifting her gaze back to Tobias, she was blunt. “What Bryce wanted to say is, we’re giving you the benefit of the doubt. And you’re right; she is fragile, but we’re not. Don’t fuck with her, Carrick. If I so much as suspect that you’re fucking with her... you’ll live to regret it.”
“I have no intention of hurting her ever again, Jackie. You both have my word.”
“Good,” Jackie noted. “But if you’re lying to us... well, he knows how to use a scalpel, and I know how to dispose of body parts. Understood?”
“Duly noted,” Tobias smirked.
“I’m not joking,” Jackie reprimanded. “And for the record, I’m not saying we’d kill you. No. I’m saying you’d be missing your most treasured appendage for the rest of your natural-born life.”
“So, to be clear, you’re not threatening my life... just my genitalia.”
“From what I know about you... that would be a fate worse than death,” Bryce declared.
“Well, you two won’t have to go all Bobbit on me... I promise... ... I will do right by Casey.”
The conversation came to a quick halt when they heard Casey's footsteps approaching in the hall. 
“Hey,” she beamed upon entering the room. “I’m so sorry I’m late!”
"It's not a problem at all," Tobias grinned.
She glanced at Jackie and Bryce, then back to Tobias. “Were they nice to you?”
“Sure were,” he fibbed. “Couldn't have been more polite. Now... you ready for lunch?”
“You better believe it!” Casey gushed. “I looked at Amelia's menu online... they have zuppa de pesce! I never get to eat that unless my Mom makes it. Have you ever had it at here?”
Their voices diminished as they walked toward the door, but Jackie and Bryce listened as long as they could.
“It’s delicious,” Tobias confirmed. “But are you getting it with octopus or without?”
“Iww. Without!”
When the door shut, and Jackie sighed wearily, and Bryce gave her a comforting tap on the knee."
“Kids, they grow up so darned fast these days.”
“Lahella. I’m in no mood.”
“I get it. But you have to admit, it was nice to see her happy for a change."
“I know. That's exactly why I'm worried.”
“She’s a big girl, Jackie.”
“Yeah, and we have BIG eyes.”
“We do,” Bryce nodded with a grin. “Let’s give him a chance, and if he messes with her...”
“Then bring on the scalpel... we ride at dawn.”
Thanks for reading!

How Peter Parker would comfort and care for a depressed loved one
(don't mind me, just some self-indulgence I wrote when I was in the trenches of depression)
Tumblr media
• "No, no, no, what we're not gonna do is feel guilty. This world is a depressing place when the rest of you isn't stable. And the world loves making people unstable."
• He'd meal prep for you, wake you up on time to keep your rhythm in check, bring you sleep tea, watch movies with you on particularly bad days.
• "What's your current take on going outside? Vitamin D might do you good." He'd ask cautiously.
• You'd tense up at the idea of spending more energy than you had but knew it was needed to get better.
• "I can...carry you to the rooftop?" He'd raise his brow.
• You'd do grabby hands at him from the bed.
• You'd chill on the sunny rooftop for 45 minutes every now and then, not talking much, just existing.
• "What are your thoughts on therapy?" He'd mumble a few weeks down the line.
• "The only thing my insurance covers is CBT. I fucking hate CBT."
• "What if we figure out a way to pay someone you can choose?"
• "I don't wa-" "Na-ah, friends help friends survive."
• Please imagine Spider-Man making a couple extra bucks by helping people install solar panels and carrying heavy stuff.
• He'd sit down next to you with a laptop and you'd search for therapy options.
• "DBT. IFS. EFT. The other EFT. Hypnotherapy. Logo Therapy. Integrative Therapists for Psychedelics. Somatic Experiencing." Even he was overwhelmed with the option.
• "IFS. Hypnotherapy. Maybe Logo Therapy." You mumbled and he decluttered the tabs.
• You landed on a woman doing both IFS & Hypnotherapy. Both things that intrigued you.
• "I mean if nothing else works...drugs still exist." You'd shrug and he'd smirk at that.
• He'd bring you to your first appointment giving you the biggest hug before you went in.
• The woman would explain to you that you needed to get mentally resourced first and that she'd try with a specific type of hypnosis to see if that helps.
• When Peter saw you get out of the building he'd instantly put his arm around you while walking.
• "I'm so tired." You'd mumble leaning against him while walking, trusting him to lead the way while you were spacing out, "Gonna tell you about it after a long sleep."
• You'd wake up the next morning with energy. Still depressed, but not quite as depressed as the previous days. He slept over to make sure there were no weird aftereffects.
• You would look at him sleeping and get up to make yourself something simple to eat.
• He'd peek his eye open before both of them were wide open seeing you standing in the kitchen.
• "Woah." He mumbled before getting up and hugging you.
• "How was it?" You paused for a second, "That's what he said."
• You told him what the hypnosis felt like and that you went back to the origin of your depression and did some inner child work thing. And the hypnosis took a lot more out of you than you expected. And now you had more energy and hoped it wasn't short-form placebo.
• "Even if it is, she can still do the other work with you." You nodded.
• "Can we go for a short walk?" He'd eagerly nod.
• Over the weeks you'd get better and better at coping with your symptoms and connecting to your inner parts. You'd figure out your triggers and how to calm yourself out of them.
• He'd love to see you flourish and take you on little friend (👀) dates all across New York City the more energy you'd have.
• He'd make sure you'd keep seeing the beautiful things in the world. He'd program your TV to not show news. He'd actually send you good news deliberately.
• "We should live together." You'd suggest.
• "If you can handle the feds searching the apartment at some point." He'd giggle.
• "I'd be good with that. I'd hide little things making it awkward for them." You both laughed.
