#i imagine they'd have a really... idk casual

[sant-riley]

AAAAAAA IDEAAAAAAAAAH

Hi! I'm new here! I've come to bombard you with the idea of a parent of the reader's(most likely dad) showing up to the base out of nowhere.

Secret admirer,

-🐍

Omg I have my first ever emoji anon, Hi!! And yes absolutely I love this. I'm gonna try and be neutral with the parent in question so it's open to anyone :)

P.S idk how I used to format this shit I'm not checking Lmfao

[Task force 141 reacting to your parent/s showing up out of nowhere to visit]

If we're taking into account that this Simon and the og Simon have the same backstory,, its safe to say he doesn't have fond memories of his dad, though he has some for his mother.

Depending on your relationship between you and your parent/s, Ghost is either gonna point blank tell them they're not welcomed here. While Price IS above him, he isn't afraid to pull the intimidation and rank card to get them to get the hell out of there. Ghost was abused by his dad, God fucking forbid you were EVER treated poorly and he finds out.

However, even if your parent is kind, he still is uncomfortable by them being there. It makes his chest feel heavy watching you interact and it just brings up bitter memories he much rather not think of, so he won't linger around and instead go to the gun range and wait it out. He cares for you, and unfortunately, it won't ever really transfer over to your parents. Best he'd do is a stern nod and be on his way.

Soap, however, is very happy to introduce themselves and your parent swoons over his accent and likes him immediately, even if they're not the greatest of parents, Soap will make it a point to put his best foot forward and ask them if they'd want a tour.

If your mom is present she immediately likes him and isn't afraid to give you a look with an eyebrow raise saying "why aren't you dating him?". Don't get me wrong, though. He's not afraid to make smart comments and then joke it off. He's protective but not in your face kinda way.

He's definitely the type to sigh with relief when they're gone, complaining about small things he disliked about them to you openly (a lil bit of a hater but his mom raised him to not be rude to his elders okay.)

Doesn't matter who your parents are, Price intimidates them. He's the captain, and from what you've told them, he is extremely good at his job and he's a no nonsense leader, but you also mention that he's kind and he'd never leave one of his own behind.

Price talks EXTREMELY highly of you, he isn't afraid to clasp a hand on your shoulder and smile that stupid smile of his while he looks down at you in admiration.

It'd be most likely that he himself would have invited your parents without your know how, he has the ties and the authority but trust and believe if you expressed any discomfort with it, he'd rectify it and send them on their way.

Your parents may not like how particularly you close you are with such an older man but it's obvious he cares so much for you and your safety, so they take peace in that.

Gaz is probably the most easy going out of the 4, casually making conversation and if your parents are the type to play match maker, he's their #1 choice I'm not sorry, it's the truth.

Gaz sings your praises, mentioning time and time again that you've been such a good help on base and a good comrade and friend and he will thank your parents for raising you. (Imagine him taking off his hat and holding it to his chest or tipping it what if I swooned)

You KNOW he's invited to family dinners if he's ever in the area, or if he has no plans for the holidays, he's welcome at the family home. (You tell him later that he doesn't need to feel pressured but he just ruffles your hair and asks what kind of alcohol your family prefers)

i feel like matthew is a boobs guy. like personally, he doesn't care if they're small or big cause all that matters to him is it's the fact that they're yours and he can suck and grope them as much as you let him. they'd be like stress balls for him. he'd also be so down to massage your boobs for you when they're sore.... and i'm probably saying this because my own smaller than average boobs are really really sore rn and i can't help but imagine matthew soothing them for me 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

(also do you have like an anons thing? idk what they're called but if you do, can i be 🫧 anon?)

omg sure! you can be 🫧 anon <3 and also my first named anon aaaa!!! oh you are just like me bb #smallboobsgang 😞 i need his hands badly on my boobs rn 😵‍💫

as much as i think more about matthew being more of a thighs guy, but i also agree with this statement! he doesn’t mind how big or small it can be as long as he has you!!

in any chance he could and in any time of the day, he would sneak his hands inside your shirt and fondle your boobs, you casually just let him since it became a habit of his. you loved the warm feeling of his calloused hands, and you kinda craved into that feeling constantly since it served like a massage after a long day. sometimes, you would wake up with his chest on your back, engulfing you into an embrace, with his hands attached on your boob.

but these days, he hasn’t touched them in a while because of how busy you were :( luckily, you were home early and by the time you got into your shared bed, he had to take the chance to slide his hand into your shirt, grabbing them by the back. this time, it felt like he was craving to touch you, rather than fondling with it playfully.

“been a while since i touched your tits like this, missed it so much,” matthew whispers in your ear, following it with a trail of wet kisses on your neck and jaw. he flicks your tits, instantly hardening by the second he rubs the pads of his fingers, making you flinch in your position.

he flips you in your position, his head on the headboard and you sitting on his lap. (your pussy on his crotch exactly!!) he pulls you by the neck, going in for a kiss. your tongues instantly swirling aggressively, drool connecting each other’s mouths.

he lifts up your shirt, revealing your boobs, all in display from his sight. he attaches his mouth on one, swirling his tongue around the hardened bud, while he rolls the other tit with his fingers, mewling under his touch. at this point, he would be willing to make out with your tits disgustingly, as his drool would be slicking up your boobs, and marking your boobs with hickies.

the sensation of his tongue and his fingers all at once on your boobs, and you grinding on top his clothed dick felt spontaneous, making it pretty clear that both of you were desperate for each other’s touch after a busy week. these sensations were going straight to your pussy, a tight coil forming in your stomach.

matthew would constantly look at you, anticipated with your lewd reactions and noises that you make, making him wanting even more.

curious, he touches your clothed clit, instantly eliciting a moan. you grind down on his fingers, craving for more friction. a cocky smile drawn on his face, looking at your fucked out expression.

“look who’s already wet… too bad i only want your tits,” matthew smirks, cooing and teasing you before he dives back to your tits, playing with it and toying your soaked clothed clit until you’re all desperate and wet for him to fuck.

(for that tweet) I think it would be cool to see your interpretation of them when they're older (like 20s to 30s)

Admittedly they are generally young adult/early 20's in a majority of my work of them, but I know it's something to work on a bit, and along with my own soft inclination, I'm sure they look a bit more youthful than I intend sometimes hahaha.

BUT. I do definitely have some late 20's into 30's ideas:

In particular for Kenny I always imagine his hair is a bit longer and he lets himself get really scruffy on the chin, layers hoodies with one those collared brown jackets because idk it just screams the right vibes for him: more mature but still just that grungy guy from a trashy, fucked up home.

For Kyle, he starts wearing glasses, or needing to wear them more, and I like to think he puts on a little weight through college. Stuff like that.

Now if you're really talking older shit, I tend to think now that Kenny would have some particular strong feelings when they're considering buying a house or something like that... because like... he probably never really imagined that happening for himself. Any major milestones or things like that would be a lot on him.

Also I almost always imagine that Kenny would work too much or overwork himself. Like he'll come home, or come hang out with the guys, and just crashes after sitting down for 10 minutes. Especially because I've always loved the idea of him doing jobs with physical labor. Sometimes imagine it as a pretty serious issue or hurtle for him because it's tied to money. (This is a whole other ramble honestly lmao...)

I usually think Kyle has a million existential crises trying to figure himself out and what he wants to pursue career wise and with life in general. Maybe he's a bit rigid and anxious during that transitioning period.

For some reason I sorta picture Stan mellowing out and not caring so much, but still kinda struggles with being torn between his mind and his heart.

Sometimes I've imagined Stan and Kenny would be casual drinking buddies. Like yeah they'd have some complex feelings about drinking for obvious reasons and that does generally overrule this thought, but I can definitely picture it for them, in a lighthearted way especially!!

I'm not sure how many characters to include here or if you meant more visually or character and personality wise, but those are the first ideas that come to mind. But of course these are things I always play around with for different ideas, or just for different vibes, so most of this isn't like set in stone for me lol.

Anyways I gave drawing it my best shot lmao

I posted recently re: an assertion that Dean is attracted to underage girls (based primarily on his comments about teen girls in "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester" & "After School Special"). OP's angle was roughly: "Dean could have pedophiliac attractions as a result of having been sexually-assaulted in childhood."

While that's a reasonable-enough take, I personally disagree. I don't think Dean is attracted to teen girls. IMO, a close reading strongly suggests that what he's doing in those scenes can be boiled down to "crude humor attempting to gross out Sam."

But I also wanted to talk about Dean's general demeanor toward young women, because we see a fair amount of interaction between him & teenage girls, including Claire, Krissy (from "Adventures in Babysitting") & Marie (from "Fan Fiction"), and it's markedly different from how Dean approaches adult women. With adult women — up to & including grandmothers (S14:E13 "Lebanon," S11:11 "Into the Mystic") — Dean flirts the way he breathes. And it's explicitly acknowledged that his flirtation doesn't necessarily indicate that he wants to sleep with the women he's batting his eyelashes at (as Pamela says, "You don't want me... You just like to flirt").

This is just how Dean's most comfortable interacting with women. Frankly, I have to imagine he's not even conscious of his behavior most of the time. (Some of this style of interaction can probably be traced back to a lack of female role models/parental figures/etc. during crucial developmental years of his childhood. But some of this is simply because Dean really enjoys sex — and thinks everyone should enjoy it — and he's just extremely comfortable with himself in that particular context.)

But how Dean interacts with adult women is not at all how he interacts with teenage girls who end up in his social sphere. There's no casual flirting with Krissy or Marie, no smoky innuendo with Claire. And when Jody brings up the "sex talk" over dinner with Claire & Alex, Dean doesn't leer or snark — he's ready to bolt from the room. The way he treats these girls, it's clear they fall into the category of "kids," not "women," and that that's not a sexual category for him. Instead, Dean seems to slip into a more familial role. The way he interacts with Krissy & Claire isn't terribly dissimilar from how he treats Ben (adjusted for age) or Jack (once he finally warms up to him). [Although he leans into more of a "cool older brother" vibe than a "dad" vibe with the girls — likely sensing that they'd resent/find patronizing any attempt to be a substitute father — whereas he gives off more "dad" energy with Ben & Jack.]

Ultimately, we have tons of evidence that Dean cares about kids, treats them with respect in their 1-on-1 interactions, & has a generally protective attitude towards them. And everything I've seen suggests that this treatment is applied equally to boys and girls, younger kids and older ones.

(Tangential, but: Honestly, one of the things I love about Dean is the respect he has for women despite the way he grew up. A lot of men who come of age in a "boy's world" see women as almost some kind of alien creatures, beautiful but unknowable, desirable but not really people — not in the way it matters. Dean might not have a particularly nuanced understanding of gender in society, & he's definitely absorbed some misogynistic tendencies from the world around him — who hasn't? — but he's got the basics right. He's starting from a place of "women are people." With a lot of guys, it feels like even if they get there, they still have to stop & recalibrate sometimes, consciously reset their assumptions. But with Dean, it just feels like his default position. Maybe it's because he cares so much more about the hunter vs. civilian divide, maybe it's something else... IDK. But that's just the sense I get from him: that this is second nature.)

HEY GIRL YOU DEFINITELY DONT KNOW WHO THIS IS *WINK WINK WINK WINK* (I'm saying wink out loud everytime btw)

From stranger to stranger *wink* do you by any chance write samgladiator hcs??????? 😊😊😊

Perhaps x reader hcs??????? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

THATD BE SO SILLY IF YOU DID YKNOW LIKE GIRL ITD BE CRAZYYYYYYYY YKNOW LIKE ITD BE SO INSANEEEEEEEE RIGHT???????????

EAEHRHHSUGHE DUDE RIGHTHTHTH IT WOULD BE SOOOOOO FUCKING WILD AND SUCH A SILLY THING TO DO 🤭🤭🤭

(PROBABLY WILL BE OOC THOUGH since i only watched a few episodes, so I'm really sorry if this doesn't really fit your headcanons anon WHO I TOTALLY DON'T KNOW *wink wink*)

(ANYWAY, these will be (mostly) based off the reboot since idk much and keep in mind that I only watched a few episodes, so I'm really sorry if these HCs seem really OOC)

YHS!SAM X READER HEADCANONS GO WEEEE!!!!

I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW TO WRITE

❥ Sooo, starting off the bat, since I'm not really writing yandere hcs, let's put all the batshit crimes he committed aside for this occasion..and focus on him being really silly. ❥ If you see him tripping near a trash can, dude, that's on YOU. I imagine he'd be jokingly bragging to someone how he is about to make a 'pro gamer move', then immediately fail a millisecond later before he could even try SHIT

❥ His love language? Well...uh....you could say it's kind of a mix. ❥ For example, gift giving? Absolutely. If you were to mention something specific that you wanted even once (or maybe even when you were talking to yourself while walking back home)? Expect that very thing to appear right outside your doorstep with a poorly drawn rabbit doodle sticked on top of it with a bunny sticker. ❥ Quality time? Definitely! He loves to see you wake up and THRIVE FOR ANOTHER DAY! You BET he stalks the shit out of you though. If you can't shake the feeling that you're being watched at school, on the road back home, and mayybe when you are about to sleep, then that's on HIM. (Sorry, I said I'm not really writing yandere hcs, not that I will never write any.) ❥ Physical touch? ... ❥ DO YOU TAKE HIM AS A MENTALLY WELL GUY? I DIDN'T THINK SO. ❥ You should know by now that he would SCREAM the second his hand accidentally brushes against yours (though we're not sure about the accident part WINK WINK)

❥ I also have a teeny tiny headcanon that he only lets YOU touch his rabbit ears. (and I MEAN ONLY YOU if others even TRIED they'd be thrown to the nearest dumpster) And when you do so? He MELTS. Like don't be surprised if you see him giggle like a freaking teenage girl is what I'm trying to say 🤭🤭🤭

❥ You also cannot tell me he wouldn't also try to impress you, one way or another. Whether it be trying to make you giggle and twirl your hair by saying the most APPALLING pickup lines of all time, or casually talking to you about your interests as if he was already a huge fan of em (bro actually stood up all night looking at every search result on google about that topic, BUT SHH)

❥ He would also tell you about his day BY EITHER LYING OR TWISTING HIS WORDS AROUND. COME ON NOW.

"Sooo..what weree you up to this weekend?" ❥ "Oh, me??? Well, I bought my friend a cat...and I did help a guy raise money for his cancer.." as he recalls what the FUCK happened in his life that went wrong

❥ Now. You know this man would never ever want to leave you alone (as if it wasn't obvious enough with the abandonment issues and the stalking, but I digress) so you definitely would need to reassure his ass. But once you do so? His droopy rabbit ears would slowly, but surely go right back up again. He can't help it though, you just seem to always make him feel better by existing.

either way, he is a little fucked up bastard someone please put him in a psychiatric hospital (or kiss him, that sounds like a better solution) *DROPS THE MIC AND IMMEDIATELY RUNS*

Here’s something fun you could try doing, I really liked the Leo x unicorn reader so why not something more magical. How about Rottmnt x younger sister but get this she’s a MAGICAL GIRL like sailor moon or even pretty cure. I would like to imagine she had sailor moon’s personality just for fun.

If you couldn’t from the user name am a huge magical girl fan😅.

Wassup friendo! Aw, I'm glad you liked it =) Ayyyeee but mira mira- *casually slings arm around your shoulders, leaning in conspiratorially* This is a pretty rad idea, save for the fact that I have next to zero knowledge about Sailor Moon and ... Pretty Cure? Is that what it's called? 😅 I hope I'm saying it correctly ajshdjdhd /gen!

As far as being something more ✨magical✨ with rottmnt and a magical sister, all I can imagine is her having a cool Sailor Moon transformation every time they gear up for battle and:

Leo is infinitely jealous each time. Why doesn't he get a super cool glowy transformation when the moment strikes too?? Seems homophobic to him. (/lhj) (Just wait til he unlocks his mystic abilities, he'll be back to himself in no time. Probably tries to outdo you in terms of showy glowy magic girl aura.)

Donnie wonders how it's possible for you to exude legitimate sparkles ("HOW IS THIS GENETICALLY POSSIBLE?? SIMPLE: IT'S NOT.") but gets used to it since, yk, you're his sister ajshdjd

Mikey gets just as sparkly and you do purely vibe-wise!! — I definitely believe he wholeheartedly adores the magical aspect of his sister and it just makes his little mystic heart so happy ╰⁠(⁠*⁠´⁠︶⁠`⁠*⁠)⁠╯

and Raph would generally be positive about it!! It's just that when it interferes with missions and hero work or what other, he gets a lil stressed :>

— Especially when you go all magic time right 👏🏽 in the middle 👏🏽 of 👏🏽 the 👏🏽 battlefield pleaseeee he would be frothing at the mouth. Not above asking "if you can do this later" lmboooo. (He means well I promise, he's just a big brother 🥹)

In terms of being magical: if this were to be their biological sister then the magic itself would be their inherent mysticism!! rather than if it were to be a sister with origins unknown/different from the boys; heck, you could have a whole other magical bloodline out there somewhere and they're just. none the wiser. (well, everyone except for Donnie. that man knows things nobody else does.......... nor should. shivers in fear.)

Ayo but overall, they'd love their magical sister. That's on Pizza Supreme in the sky fr.

Idk man imma have to evaluate on this now. Might turn it into a ✨professional✨ req/hc list. Dunno. Might get a lil silly with it. What do you think?

ok ok khml beta spoilers (part one of whatever this is going to be idk i'm just gonna ramble about my thoughts and observations)

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh wah awa wahhhhhh i want this game now i won't lie to you this looks really cool i can't believe it's real. or a mobile game for that matter. imagine this as a full console game. imagine khux and khdr as this. insane

remus... nice!!! can we like. see him in full lighting though so i could get a good sense of his color scheme. ok i like this guy already i like his casual/rude vibes and the way he talks

i hope he has a brother named romulus and i hope romulus kills him it needs to happen sorry. idc whether it's shock value or something very narratively heavy i need fratricide in this game idc

so they're doing the good old 'every other character in the cutscene is gonna be voiced except the protagonist whose dialogue just shows up silently but their mouth still moves' thing huh. can't wait to see how this plays out. looks like player is still gonna have limited dialogue overall so that works. but like man i kinda wish they'd just give player a canon voice or two or three. imagine that being something you could choose

i'm gonna read too deeply into player's amnesia including their name but not including their fighting ability. like they could've had you type in a name during the character creation screen and had player respond to the question later but nope we specifically establish that they don't remember and have to make one up on the spot. you know what they do remember though? combat. weapons. carrying out their missions as a keyblade wielder, all they were ever meant to do. gonna be normal about this for sure

the scala world card... DUDE...

so after multiple joke posts we finally have a real freya... i don't know why i'm surprised. dunno if i vibe with her full outfit yet (i think the red jacket uniform is kinda overbearing and might get old fast if both she and remus and probably at least 20 other characters will have it but in a cleaner or more stylized render i'd love it probably) but like dude the cat ear accessories... were those there last time? did i not notice them last time? those are perfect

literally ALL of this music is so cheerful... the dearly beloved is super upbeat, the new field theme for scala and the astral plane and combat and the tutorial menus etc etc... it's so strange. i KNOW they're hiding the absolute tragedy from us. goth aesthetic combined with whimsical peaceful tunes. what's happening here

the. the pit... that's their portal?? when you wanna go to the astral plane you jump in The Machinery Hell Pit? absolutely not you would never convince me to do that

so begins the gacha/microtransaction hell. i sure hope it's easy enough to get whatever ingame currency there is through other means

i'm actually loving the amount of customization options dude that's so cool

[inchidentally]

I know wives and gf talk isn't for everyone so asks under a cut - and I hate the term 'wag' so I'll start tagging these 'f1partnertalk' for those who want to bl!

right??? and the fact that in his Australia tourism type video with her he refers to her as his 'partner' which to me is both him being socially minded but also respect bc by that time they'd been together 3 and a bit years!

and exactly !! on the one hand he's not using her as a status thing of 'look I have a gf' but he's also made the very smart decision (and I think this was the Webbers influence) of not having her be a secret or a mystery. her acc going private is pretty normal for F1 gfs who aren't using their profile for business but the fact that he casually reminds people about her and that she'll like certain content posted about her or them is enough to stop anyone thinking she's 'fake' or whatever. there were some feeble attempts to claim they were broken up just bc she didn't go to many races but when folks pointed out she was in final year of uni for a very difficult degree it died down.

gotta say though - and this isn't in reply to you it's an aside about comments I see - I find the straight people thing of jumping to theories about marriage for long term relationships SO weird. it's like there's this ticking time bomb for het relationships lol. it's esp weird since they're so young and his career requires him to be so selfish (his and Lando's words) that I'm like how do ppl see that and leap to them marrying buying a house and planning kids when they not only don't live together yet they also spend most of the year apart??? sure they're super mature and stable for their age but who I am now and who I was during hs and college has been so incredibly different! I couldn't imagine making that huge a commitment esp if I had an all consuming career like Oscar does. I just hope those comments (however well meaning) don't reach them bc that feels crazy over-stepping and would be so awkward to read.

these asks I felt like went together really well lol

(this is the post anon refers to) oh anon. idk if you've seen them but have a look through here to enjoy Oscar's 8-year little crush on Lando and I think it's safe to say that Lily will at least have had an inkling about it.

and the thing is that being physical just isn't Oscar's way even with Lily which if Lando was at all hmmmm about then he'll have seen that pretty early on. as anon listed above, Oscar shows his affection for people by including them when he talks about his life (which Lando also gets!) also acts of service and signs of respect (which Lando also gets!)

this is me projecting here but idk the way Oscar talks about the boarding school guys he's still friends with and his friends back in Oz but doesn't post about them or have them to many races just makes me think that Oscar decided very early on to just avoid the distraction of sharing himself on social media apart from memes? he's never wanted to establish any kind of online persona and he got really solid a levels as a backup in engineering if F1 didn't work out so he's never planned to be a public person anyway.

where I'm going w that is that Lando will absolutely by now have learned all of this about Oscar. Oscar will like and respond to content about Lando but most of what Lando gets from him will be the acts of service and signs of respect. which is exactly what Oscar does with Lily, his family, Mark, etc. Oscar's own content will be about generically positive stuff re McLaren and the occasional funny post (like P1,P2,P6?). but the people he considers his most inner circle will stay largely off the map. which lbr is what Lando himself does with a lot of his closest friends! especially since his fame began to grow he's stopped posting a lot of those people and we only hear them bc he mentions seeing them. Lando is Oscar's little long harbored 'crush' and Lily is his long term gf. I feel like if that's obvious to us then it def will be for Lando :)

so we can count ourselves incredibly lucky that Lando being Oscar's teammate means we get as much of a window in on them as we do <3

[whumpshaped]

first

idk what to say this got entirely out of hand. i just spent last night and this morning typing this out on my phone in a daze, trying to get to a point where i could finally cut it off

tw needles, stitches, fear of friend dying, just a high stress situation altogether

Surprisingly, Caretaker proved to be very good at pushing personal differences aside for Whumpee's sake, even taking some orders from Whumper without snarky remarks.

"Maybe we should stay friends," Whumper said casually. "We make a pretty good team. At least when you're quiet."

Caretaker could swear they felt their eye twitch. "Imagine how good of a team we'd make if both of us were quiet."

"You're right. I also feel like we've gotten close enough to understand each other without words."

"Could you shut the fuck up?" they snapped, before immediately taking a deep, calming breath, directing their eyes back to the wound. "We both want them alive, right? So let me focus."

"I don't know. I'm starting to think I don't care that much about them."

Caretaker's eyes snapped to Whumper again, despite them desperately trying to work out the suture situation. "I will fucking kill you if you don't stop fucking around. I swear. And if Whumpee dies, I'll also kill you. You will not leave this stupid place alive unless Whumpee is okay."

"Don't threaten me with a good time," they said with a self-assured smile. "I'm just saying-"

"Don't. Don't say anything."

If sewing their best friend back together wasn't stressful enough, Caretaker could feel Whumper's gaze on them the entire time. Obviously, they must've been joking. And obviously, this was just another attempt to get on their nerves. But they were almost done, and Whumpee was almost stable.

"It's admirable, the way you handled this," Whumper remarked once the stitches were all in place and they could catch their breath. "I wonder how many people would let their friend die just out of spite. On principle. Because they wouldn't take orders from me, wouldn't trust me-"

"Just two minutes. Can I just have two minutes in peace?" Caretaker buried their face in their hands, feeling like they were about to cry. The anxiety and adrenaline was catching up to them. "You're seriously starting to sound like you're flirting with me or something. It's gross. Shut up. Leave us alone."

Caretaker didn't look up, hoping that if they didn't acknowledge Whumper, they'd just disappear. And it worked. No more comments, not for several minutes. They could almost imagine it was just the two of them again, them and Whumpee. And when the silence was finally broken, it was in a way they'd never expected.

"Okay, I'm sorry. I talk when I'm nervous."

They scoffed, raising their head to look at Whumper- only to find that they really did look pretty spent. "Wait, are you serious? What the fuck were you nervous about?"

"I told you, I wanted them alive. Throughout this whole ordeal, I had no idea if we could actually pull it off. I was fucking nervous the whole time."

"And our legendary duel is still yet to come."

"Oh, no, god no." They put up both hands in a lighthearted gesture of surrender. "I'm done. This was enough excitement for today. You actually complied with me to save them, I guess that's like... proof of your golden heart and whatever, and the power of friendship, and I was actually just testing you all along, and... whatever else your fairy godmother would say."

"So you're just... letting us leave?"

"Yeah. I'm done. I'm exhausted. You promise you won't try to press charges, I promise I won't come after you."

"What?" Caretaker wanted to argue. Of course they were going to press charges. But right now... Whumper didn't have to know that. "I mean- that's... kinda scummy, but... yeah, sure, fine."

Whumper nodded. They didn't even question their answer. Instead, they vaguely gestured towards where they sat. "Can I sit with you? The rocks are digging into my ass, and it's really uncomfortable."

"If you stay quiet."

They pretended to zip up their mouth, scooting over to take the rockless space next to Caretaker in complete silence.

Caretaker had no idea what to think at this point. The stress of the rescue, the gunshot, being found... being on high alert the entire time, while also being laserfocused on saving Whumpee's life... having to work together with the fucker who caused all of it... They were tired. And as much as they hated to admit, the experience sort of... humanised Whumper in their mind. This guy wasn't a vicious torturer. They were a disturbed idiot, apparently more than capable of some stage-fright, who was still willing to threaten them into somehow giving expert first aid.

Right now, Whumper was just resting like anyone else would be after a huge operation. It must've been the exhaustion, but for a brief moment, Caretaker thought they really could've been friends. In another life. One in which they didn't kidnap Whumpee.

"Stop staring. It makes me nervous. And if I get nervous, I'll just start blabbering, and you don't want-"

"Fine, jeez. Go to therapy, sort out your weird anxiety. And the other stuff."

This too, this weird banter. It was too human. Since when did they feel comfortable enough to say shit like that to Whumper? An hour ago they had been terrified. And why wasn't Whumper retaliating?

More minutes passed in silence, with Caretaker constantly checking whether Whumpee was awake yet. Whumper didn't want to leave until they saw that Whumpee really was okay, and Caretaker wouldn't have let them anyway. 'You will not leave this stupid place alive unless Whumpee is okay.' That was what they'd said, and they meant it.

"Why aren't they waking up?" Caretaker asked impatiently. "It's been a while already."

Whumper turned around to see Whumpee in the same position they'd left them in. "Touch the wound for me."

"What?"

"Either you touch it or I do. See if it's a little too warm."

Caretaker didn't have the energy to argue. Besides, Whumper didn't seem like they were joking, and if possible, Caretaker would've like to avoid them touching Whumpee any more than necessary. They crawled a little closer, gently placing a hand on top of the skin around the wound. "It's pretty warm."

"See if they have a fever."

Caretaker moved their hand to Whumpee's forehead and cheeks, grimacing at the unnatural warmth. "Fuck. Fuck. Of course it'd get infected! Why did we even do this outside?"

"Where else? Did you want to do it in my house?"

"No! We should've called an ambulance! You should've let me call one!" They turned around, their rage completely reignited.

"I'm not letting you call others onto my property," Whumper said calmly. Of course. How could they forget, for even a moment? Whumper was still a fucking monster. "We can bring them inside, clean the wound again, and give them some medicine." When Caretaker opened their mouth to argue, they added, "That's the final offer."

"I thought we were a team now. Friends. Whatever the fuck." They hated how the desperation came through in their voice, despite all their efforts to hide it.

"That's why I'm offering to help treat them in my home. And also because I can't just drag them there alone. Again, it's... a two-men job."

Caretaker took less time to think about accepting this way riskier type of help than the first time, when it was just treating a gunshot wound and some other injuries out in the open. Was Whumper getting in their head? Subtly conditioning them to trust their stupid suggestions? They didn't have time to analyse their behaviour. Or did they? Maybe it wasn't even as urgent as Whumper was making it seem. No, that was dumb, of course an infection was urgent. God, they needed rest, they needed their brain to be working.

"Fine, okay, just- just don't let them die. I can't watch them die. I just got them back-"

"Whether they live or die is entirely dependent on you. I'm giving you all the help I can, actually."

Caretaker groaned in frustration. "Don't phrase it like that. Like I just need to accept all this graciously offered, professional help. I don't even know if the infection was caused by an earnest mistake or you. Maybe you want to lure me inside! Maybe-"

"Caretaker." Whumper's stern voice made them stop mid-conspiracy. "The sooner we catch the infection, the better. Come on."

While they were bringing Whumpee back into their personal house of horrors, Caretaker couldn't help but feel extremely uneasy. This felt like a mistake, on every level. And why was Whumper scolding them like they were nothing but a petulant child? Their concerns were entirely valid! Reasonable!

They wanted to fucking explode. This entire day was a mindfuck, and they just didn't have the mental energy to stay on top of everything all the time. They desperately needed someone to lean on, someone to trust... and Whumper seemed to be changing up their stupid personality to fit whatever Caretaker wanted at the time, making it way too easy to give in and just blindly trust their help, even if that went against every single rational thought in their head.

Manipulating them.

Caretaker rubbed their eyes, trying to focus on cleaning the wound again, this time with better equipment, in a more sterile environment. They just had to stay vigilant.

Quite vigilant of you to accept this offer, and come into the lion's den of your own accord. And bring Whumpee, injured, unconscious, and defenceless.

They couldn't beat themself up for it now. They had to focus. They'd beat themself up for it later.

"Not that it counts from me," Whumper's voice startled them, and they almost dropped the cotton pad, "but we both have limited options here. It's quite the shitshow, and I don't think either of us are very happy with the set-up."

"Okay, Mother Teresa."

"Oh, shut up. I just hate to watch you work with that stupid, kicked puppy face. I'm just telling you to save the fucking self-loathing for later. You're clearly trying your best to help them."

Vigilant. They had to stay vigilant. They couldn't let the fucking enemy's aggressive positive feedback fill their heart with warmth and security. They couldn't. It didn't even make them want to smile, not even a little. Their perpetual scowl was very well protected from such attacks.

God, what was wrong with them?

They looked at Whumpee's blissfully unconscious face, wondering if this entire thing would mean the end of their friendship. But there was no one else around to help... Their friendship would've ended with Whumpee's death too. At least now there was a chance...

"See, that's why I said what I said. But now you're crying anyway, so really, what was the point," Whumper grumbled.

"Yeah, well, maybe try having feelings sometime, see how you get on," they shot back, petty insult made even more pathetic by their sniffling. "Just leave me alone. I'm tired of your stupid act. I can finish this alone."

"Yeah. But I won't let you." Whumper pulled out one of the kitchen chairs, taking a seat across from where Caretaker stood. "It's not like I don't trust you... it's just, you know... I don't trust you."

"I trusted you this whole fucking time, despite you causing all of this!"

"Trusted me enough to leave me alone with Whumpee?"

Caretaker had to hold themself back from punching the nearest wall. "No! No. No, obviously not. Fuck you. Fuck you."

"You should start thinking about what your plan is for the night, because you clearly need some sleep." Whumper tilted their head to the side. "Unless you plan on taking this to the next level, and keeping watch in turns."

Tears of genuine sorrow and heartbreak were mixing with helpless anger as Caretaker thought more and more about the situation they'd ended up in. They finished changing the bandages, placing a damp cloth on Whumpee's forehead to help bring down their fever, then pulled out another chair to sit. They wiped the tears away, trying their best to look less like a complete mess on the brink of another meltdown.

"I've stayed up for longer just to finish videogames," they said as casually as they could manage. "I can stay up for something actually important."

Whumper grinned, clearly expecting them to pass out within the next hour. "Suit yourself."

[theflyingfeeling]

it's my day off and I have already had one formal phone call and I'm now waiting for my new desk chair to be ready for pickup and I had an exhaustive day yesterday hosting vaalikahvit for five adults, one toddler and two dogs, so may I pleeeeaaaaaasssseeee get to fuck around and imagine blorbo nonsense and draft an AU fic I'll never write because I still haven't made that sideblog for this kinda shit instead of doing anything useful?? 😩🙏

so today I'm thinking of a no-band-AU semi-inspired by this post I made a week ago

in which Olli and Aleksi have recently moved in together in their new fancy house and they're so happy and in love and having a lot of sex (yes this is an important plot detail 🥰)

(spoiler alert: there is no plot. not even a little bit (hence I won't be writing this))

their relationship had a controversial start because they were still dating other people when they fell in love

Joonas is pining for Joel who's in a toxic on/off relationship with Samy

Joel may be struggling with something else too idk haven't decided, but Joonas is there for him always and he loves Joel so so much

as for Tommi and Niko: maybe Tommi and Olli used to be an item at some point, although he's not the one Olli broke up with to be with Aleksi

and maybe Joonas and Niko had something going on but Niko ended it because he saw how in love with Joel Joonas was

so Niko and Tommi have lots of deep discussions about whether it's weird for Tommi to see Olli with Aleksi (not really because it's been a while and he can see how happy Olli is now (way happier than he was with his previous partner))

and about how it is for Niko to see Joonas suffering so much because of Joel (it's hard but there's not much niko can do about it is there)

and yeah they end up spending the night together at some point 👀 they decide to keep it casual and low-key though so they tell no one

eventually it becomes maybe a little more than just friends hooking up but they're still sorta chill about it and it feels very natural (for Tommi it's better than the random one-night-stands he's been having and for Niko it's definitely better than worrying about Joonas all time time)

and yeah, as it is a non-band-AU I've also given some thought to what they all could be doing instead of being in a band (which is my favourite part of non-band-AUs hehe)

first of all, Tommi is a paramedic because I recently re-watched this old interview in which they all tell the what they'd be doing for a living if they weren't musicians in a band and that's Tommi's answer

ngl it would be kinda funny if I gave everyone the occupation they mention in the video but I think 'gravedigger' for Niko would be a tad too gloomy for the purposes of this AU lol, so he's a writer. a struggling one maybe, but still, and he spends a lot of time in his head (very in-character I knoooooooww <3)

Olli is a graphic designer at a... ummm... a place where graphic designers work? idk just some company, he works from home a lot (so that he can have sex with his bf during his breaks)

Aleksi is still a producer, has a fancy-ass studio in the house. Robin is one of the artists he works with, because of course he is

Olli and Aleksi secretly want to ask Robin if he'd be up for a threesome but he's a literal puppy and oblivious and they don't know how to bring it up lol

and maybe Johnny's Aleksi's co-producer and they also fantasize about having threesome with him 😂 sorry yes they are very horny and kinky in this AU

not sure what Joel and Joonas could be doing, but I like to imagine them as co-workers in some kinda music business or whatever. maybe they're also roommates, just to make it extra painful for Joonas 😭 and maybe Joel is a musician on the side (plays covers at bars etc.), because I simply can't imagine him another career than music

(Joonas goes to see his every single gig, sometimes without Joel knowing it)

a random "scene" I've thought of includes Niko and Joonas coming over to test the new sauna at the Matela-Kaunisvesi residence, but because Niko and Joonas feel awkward having sauna together, they end up mixing the pairs and so we have Aleksi and Niko having deep discussions in the sauna and Joonas and Olli talking about sex while waiting for their turn lol (they've been friends since forever and maybe had some experiments together when they were teens so it's very natural for them)

but yeah, the reason why I'm not writing this AU is because I have no clear plot for it 😔 but honestly? sometimes it's fun just creating these AUs and characters in my head 🥺

I wish I could write all these ideas into actual stories but I'm scared of biting off more than I can chew, so I intimidate and overwhelm myself from even giving it a fair try 😭

so that's it pretty much! if anyone wants to help me figure out an actual story idea out of this, you know where to find me 👋

next I think I'm gonna go keep on procrastinating by creating Olli & Aleksi's fancy-ass house on The Sims 4 byeeeeeee

#sorry but coming up with story ideas is a hobby to me pls ignore 🤧 #i was so brave deleting a long self-degrading rant in the tags pls be proud of me #anywayyyy i reeeeeeally want to write something for valentine's day #so i'll try to refrain from writing until then as to regain and recharge my braincells (both of them) #maybe i'll write something related to this maybe i'll write something entirely different. who knows? not i #i wish i could open requests but i still don't trust myself enough to do that 😔 #my askbox and dms are open for any other kinda fic talk though pspspspsps 🤲

[weebsinstash]

All I can say is that if Batman reader ever tried to commit “sewerslide” after being trapped, they better hope they’re successful because the after effects from the family would be insane

I mean, hypothetically, even IF Reader did die, Bruce could always idk infiltrate or cut a deal of some sort with Ra's al Ghul to dip your corpse into his magic McDonald's sprite and bring you back

But I imagine you'd basically lose every last bit of privacy. Someone would be with you at all times, even in the bathroom and when bathing, like being on suicide watch. Certain materials and media you're allowed to consume become heavily restricted based on the contents (for example if you cut yourself, suddenly Bruce doesn't think it's appropriate for you to play video games where they use blades and swords, or maybe even things like pokemon "hey, what did that move just say?" "Uhhh leaf cutter?" "Absolutely not") because "oh no what if that makes them think bad thoughts and they wanna hurt themselves again" and tv can be equally as unpredictable so they probably only let you watch certain things on streaming services that have clear ratings, or maybe they even look up spoilers and "research" before letting you watch anything. ("Oh sorry we WERE gonna let you watch that critically acclaimed movie about the deaf girl and the bully, but apparently there's attempted suicide so, let's watch Ponyo instead")

Your diet would probably drastically change in the sense that they suddenly won't let you use knives and forks. If you want meat it will usually be in a stew so you can use a spoon or a soft meatloaf (you know Alfred got that bomb cooking), Dick will spoil you with your favorite ice cream and soft pastries constantly like he's trying to buy your love with it, for some reason they don't like it when you use chopsticks either. What, do they think you're going to stab your eye out or something 🙄 or maybe you casually make that joke once when they let you use the chopsticks and they all look deadly serious and suddenly you never use chopsticks ever again 💀

They'd be extremely clingy and all manifesting their trauma in different ways. Maybe Bruce is constantly not around because he's basically being Batman 24/7 so he can "clean up the streets and make this city a safer place for you" (especially if your mental break was connected to a villain in any way, like the concussion idea I discussed) but he makes sure to be at dinner with you or check on you at least once a day. If you were going to school with Dick and Barbara like in the age regression idea, maybe one or even both of them start doing classes from home so you aren't as lonely and excluded because, obviously you are not really allowed to leave the manor, let alone the property anymore. Maybe Bruce straight up pulls you out of school and says to focus in your health and you can just collect all those credits and such and finish it later and it's like sorta helping but also making you feel like a failure

Also tons of cuddles and hugs and platonic kisses and you probably aren't allowed to sleep alone. Maybe in the rare instances Bruce actually sleeps he comes into your room to male sure you're sleeping soundly and he'll fall asleep in a chair in the corner (because he doesn't want to wake you 🥺)

For that idea and also the next one, I've also thought of the potential use of J'onn or M'gann as Martians, or even Zatanna, if Bruce is ever like, intent on getting into your head, accessing your memories, accessing your thoughts. Maybe when you have your mental break Martian Manhunter is there as a good friend to Bruce to let him know how you genuinely didn't want to hurt anyone 🥺 if you go mute or even catatonic, there's Miss Martian to maybe see that traumatic memory permanantly plastered in the forefront of you mind replaying over an over, something that absolutely broke you, maybe even something Bruce doesn't even know about

(Actually this isn't the "next idea" I was mentioning before but I've also thought of "Reader is actually good friends with Bruce/the League/basically an extended Batfam member but you bounce to another universe one day and come back a wounded traumatized mess and it turns out you were with Owlman or something and Bruce kind of terrifies you now because they look and sound the exact same, and also, universal constants so 'your' Batman is also crazy for you and now he wants to "rescue" you")

And for real though, I have actually also sat down and thought about Reader/OCs who were sidekicks or Batfam member who had to be sent to Arkham 👀 I dunno it's something about the drama and possession but idk also helplessness of them "caring" but helping you in such an extreme way (even if maybe it's what you need)

Like, say you're a Batfamily member or fellow Justice Leaguer and Bruce can tell you're starting down a mental decline. More stressed, more depressed, isolating yourself more, but you keep pushing yourself to do hero work. You start doing things he doesn't agree with, getting too rough, almost going way too far and being caught and stopped by him more than once. He's actually worried about you, but you won't confide in him, especially if you're just another superhero and not exactly "under his care". you're more independent and don't want THE Batman being disappointed in you. You don't want to have to be rescued

But eventually there's some sort of horrible breaking point, whether something awful is done to you and you completely snap or you've suffered a terrible lose or failure (like say you failed to save someone and they died, or you failed to save a LOT of someones) or you're exposed to Joker venom or Scarecrow's fear gas (I actually have some ideas for that gas ngl 👀) and you're just straight up hallucinating. You were already starting to act out and become aggressive and with your skill and depending on preference, superpowers, you could start causing real damage. You're hallucinating being attacked, and send out a force of energy to blast whoever that attacker is away, and you just tear up a city block with people still on it. Bruce or Clark or someone tries to come up and talk to you, but all your brain interprets is someone is chasing you, you have to get away, they're going to hurt you, you have to run, you have to fight back, you have to PANIC--

Arkham IS an asylum, and it's used for housing the dangerous and powerful. What else can they do? A hospital wouldn't have the security or facilities to contain you, unless they had members of the Justice League with you on standby to literally restrain you if needed, and, they've got important duties of their own. Bruce tries to visit you constantly as Batman, as the one who brought you in, but you usually refuse to speak with him or cower at the sight of him. You're kept isolated from the other patients who would absolutely tear you apart if you were allowed to walk amongst them, but you're treated well besides perhaps being forcibly medicated which is only as violent as you make it. But it's a hospital, not a prison. The asylum staff feel horrible you're even there, sympathetic. I mean, after what happened to their coworker Doctor Quinzel they would know about good people succumbing to their mental illness

You're finally showing signs of improvement and they go to release you and you've requested to be put in a halfway house or some sort of program to be independent on your own rather than be released into anyone's custody and who is there waiting outside the asylum for you? Batman. And you're either one of two ways: you're humiliated to see him and kind of want to be left alone but reluctantly go with him bc you dont have a choice, OR youre filled with absolute terror and ready to go back into the hospital because you don't want him to "get you" (which unbeknownst to everyone is true, he's totally there to take you "back home", not escort you to your next destination like they all are fooled to believe)

It's genuinely a lose-win no matter what. I mean, you can't escape, but, at least he's more than just a little dedicated to taking care of you 😅

[jade-of-mourning]

i wrote this post two months ago, but i was thinking about how much i love music on accident again and now i'm going to make an incredibly self-indulgent and unwarranted post on music i think that krew+opal in a modern au would enjoy based on music i like.

opal would definitely love lamp and other j-indie bossa-nova/jazz/folk sounding types — ichiko aoba/kaneko ayano/fishmans/nujabes come to mind. she also gives sweet trip/panchiko and adrianne lenker. she'd possibly like norah jones/jolie holland in a different sphere. i think she'd be into more experimental flavor of black country, new road/black midi/kero kero bonito. she'd like the city-pop in anri and j-pop like aimyon.

asami also seems like she would like lamp, though to a lesser extent than opal, and probably romantic-era classical music (specifically, chopin). she'd be a slowcore duster/bedhead/mazzy star type, and probably love dream-pop beach house too. she'd be a secret fan of jazz-punk/noise midori and in japanese shoegaze-alternative flavor with plastic girl in the closet/kinokoteikoku/my dead girlfriend, and i can see her being into either nick drake or psychedelic rock — something mildly high, probably. i can see her liking suzanne vega/fiona apple/aimee mann a lot too. i think that between her and opal, they'd have the most music-nerd music taste. idk how to express it… that rym sort of music taste haha

mako is either the type to say "i don't listen to music", or if he does, he gives straight face while listening to crunchy noise and ambient deeply miserable-edgy, like nouns/teen suicide/have a nice life. he'd enjoy high quality japanese jazz-instrumental math rock like mouse on keys/fox capture plan/t-square, but i think he'd also have a guilty pleasure for the mildly-adjacent, crappy midwest emo. not sure why, maybe it's the album covers and names, but he really gives parannoul. he has the energy of a british new-wave the smiths/radiohead/the cure kind of guy. he's probably prone to get too deep in his feelings in sujfan stevens/giles corey. i think like opal, he'd enjoy big thief/adrianne lenker a lot too.

korra would like pop-punk and alternative a lot and also rnb, maybe korean rnb like jiwoo/miso. but she'd love pup/paramore/sorority noise a lot and i think she'd also be fan of jazz-punk/noise sound in midori, and also accidentally nu-metal loathe/tool/slipknot. i feel like she'd really like the synthpop in magdalena bay and she too would vibe to anri a lot. i think she'd be a fan of emo in unconcentrated forms only (specifically los campesinos!), or maybe also power pop. i could imagine her enjoying certain flavors of breakcore and electronic and for some reason i see her liking nirvana/red hot chilli peppers/the smashing pumpkins. all in all, mostly anything that's more upbeat and has energy to it. she'd probably be a mitski listener at certain times too, in all honesty.

bolin's more pop/rock and probably some alternative, though i think he'd lean more towards ok go/cracker/camper van beethoven/modest mouse. i can also see him liking vampire weekend/the postal services/death cab for cuties a lot. i feel like he would secretly enjoy mako's british-new-wave flavor but refuse to admit it to the general populace because he is an independent man! he also gives they might be giants/jukebox the ghost/ben folds five fan, aka sounds-like-children's-music-but-is-kinda-messed-up piano-rock-esque (it epitomizes him), and upbeat neo-psychedelia animal collective is just very bolin. i also see him casually enjoying the shins and the 1975.

i think that among them, there'd be a mutual enjoyment of lamp (most of all opal/asami/mako in that order) and mitski (with bolin being the only outlier in the mitski department lol). i think that if they were ever put in a car together they would never not play there is a light that never goes out and that they'd all be a fan of any music involving car crashes actually. i can't really imagine any of them outside of opal liking folk or any of them outside of korra liking any form of metal and i don't see any hyperpop in their energy sorry lol. only asami and mako seem like they would really like instrumental stuff, though different spheres of it. actually i think the two of them would overlap the most in music taste for some reason (with opal in the same arena), even if the examples i provided don't have a lot of overlap lol, followed by korra and bolin.

#lychee's brain trash #lok #opal lok #asami sato #mako lok #korra #bolin lok #this is one of the most self indulgent posts of all time tbh #it's basically just me blasting my music taste but through characters so i don't look like a music nerd #… my last fm is a mess please don't look at it #(please talk to me about music) #woah i think this is the first straight out hc post i've made hm

[formula-fun]

I just wanted to come by and say I absolutely loveee your writing, especially the relationships between the characters💕 Now, idk if it's a spoiler, feel free to not respond, but i loved Charles and Pierre's friendship and now I'm really surprised how much I ship Pierre and Yuki and how wholesome Charles and Yuki's interactions are. I was wondering if you have given any thoughts abt P/Y future and maybe how they/Charles might react to them being pregnant/having a baby?

(2) Also, not to be annoying lol, but do the pack get to know at some point abt Charles and Max's baby? 👀👀👀👀 they're all such a mess of emotions, I imagine how would that go

Hi! Thanks so much, that's so sweet <3 I put it under a read more because it's really long, sorry!!

First off so glad you like the vibes because I knew the pack dynamic was a little unusual, but I've kind of had fun writing it! Charles and Pierre are what would traditionally be the 'pack leaders' except they're romantically not compatible, and while they both are in relationships with other people those other people aren't really in the pack per se--Yuki is friends with everyone but he didn't grow up with them, so while he ends up being close with them over the years he still has another pack back home. But he and Charles are still bros and they have a good influence on each other since Charles helps Yuki feel more included, Yuki helps Charles feel less isolated about his secondary gender, and they can both bitch about Pierre together <33

I haven't thought about Yuki and Pierre having kids a lot to be honest but I know irl they both want them, so they'd probably have them somewhere down the line! In my head Yuki is really casual about everything even when he's freaking out about it (he asked Pierre to be his mate over breakfast while on his phone and didn't so much ask him as just say "I think we should be mates" and then had the audacity to look startled when Pierre choked on his smoothie), so I think one day after they've both retired from racing he would tell him he thinks it's time for them to have kids and he's ready to come off birth control. To which Pierre again chokes on his smoothie.

Max and Charles have a good number of brain cells between them but all of them are devoted to motor racing, which is not the case with Yuki and Pierre whatsoever, so everything they do is planned. Pierre is much more insane about it. Yuki has finally opened his restaurant in his retirement, and he's happy to wait out the nine months sitting at the bar eating sorbet and sorting through bills and invoices. Pierre is the one who listens to about thirty parenting podcasts while doing core workouts at the gym every day so that he can easily lift his small child when the time comes. It's excessive. He's squatting 190. A baby weighs like...3 kilos. Every time someone asks him he gives this speech about mental and physical strength. His brothers are a little worried about him.

As for Charles, he's as laissez faire about the whole thing as Yuki is, which Pierre finds extremely annoying. Small spoiler, but at this point Charles is still racing, as is Max, and they're both seasoned parents. They've got two already with a vague idea to have a third once they retire for good, so unfortunately for Pierre and Yuki this means they're given babysitting duty much more often because "it's good practice" and "it's not like you're still working" and "now you can finally put all those parenting podcasts to good use" etc etc. The Verstappen/Leclerc children are 5 and 7, are extremely loud and have the added ability to throw tantrums in four languages at once. Yuki teaches them lots of Japanese swear words so they can add a fifth. They're very adoring of the baby when it's finally born, which Pierre claims is a good sign they're not actually psychologically damaged and tries to give Charles a lecture about the importance of a diverse age range in early childhood friendships immediately after the 2031 Vietnamese Grand Prix podium, when Charles is too exhausted to escape. Charles retains exactly none of that information.

(Pierre ends up calling Max in a panic late at night a lot, because Max is the only one who really sees his side of things. Max wasn't terrified of fatherhood until the instant an exhausted Charles placed their equally exhausted newborn into his arms, and then it slammed into him like brick to the face. He had to get over it fast. He was the stay at home parent and things weren't easy that year, so he had to learn very very quickly how to be a father--the kind of father he wants to be, anyway. He's still trying and there are no real guidebooks for these things, but their kids seem to be alright so he can't be fucking up too badly. Sometimes that's all Pierre needs to hear.)

As for your second question, I can't give you specifics but they'll all learn about it before the fic is over!! It'll happen very soon and I promise they will be suitably messy about it. Thanks so much for the asks, these were so fun to answer! <3

The og. The one we both die for. Rivusa

Also soundwave and Bloom/Musa! (Idk their ship name jamsnakja. And yes these are all musa. I am unabashed about my love for Musa!)

Also i know you did not ask for this but,,,, Helia/Musa platonic soulmates??? Pls they are both my babies and Helia is her no. 1 bestie after Aisha

HAVE FUN BABESSS

I like to call them "dragonsong"!!!!

I'm trying to come up with a time that Musa and Bloom hung out together or had a real moment together and I'm coming up utterly blank, despite being in the same friend group and both of them getting a good amount of screen time, they don't talk to each other that much XD

I really never have considered this couple because they both have impossibly strong personalities and a tendency to lash out in Musa's case and get really offended in Bloom's case, not to mention they both (most Musa) refuse to communicate and have horrible insecurity issues

This ship is asking for so many misunderstandings

That isn't a real fault, I love slow burn as much as the next person but imagining the disaster that would be early season interaction is fucking sending me because you know Bloom would make a comment equally as dumb as "it looks warm" Musa would be equally as upset but Bloom would take it way more personally

They are also stupidly awkward when in love and blushy and I refuse to believe they can hold an actual coherent conversation for at least half a season when they realize they both like each other

It would be a goddamn mess is what I'm saying but it would definitely be a fun and vibrant environment for the both of them so not something I'm super into but I won't shy away from either

Hmmm I need to think more about platonic besties between the Winx and specialists bc all I know is Riven Flora besties

Helia and Musa get along with Riven for very different reasons and I think Musa's refusal to communicate combined with her tendency to assume what people are thinking combined with the fact that Helia is usually extremely quiet would end hilariously, but that's s1 till mid s2 Musa and Helia doesn't start really hanging around till s3 so that would never be a real problem it would just be funny

I can definitely see them vibing over song lyrics and poetry together and helping each other write, not to mention I like to imagine Helia is a witch in my version and insight into how different magic works would probably be super interesting for the both of them

I feel like instead of being more bombastic friends they'd be more "casually texts every day" friends. Like that one friend you always update on your life and gives you (loving) shit for your stupid ass decisions

They probably met via Riven and immediately hit it off when the ganged up on teasing him and decided to text each other jokes and it went from there

WILL be thinking about this more in the future

o'darwin ballroom dance au thoughts for you all cause i was at competition all weekend and then had a 6 hour car ride home

(basic ballroom info can be found at the end under the cut)

the three of them are all partners together and just switch out depending on the style. nat and alex do rhythm and latin, nat and kasey do standard, and alex and kasey do smooth. but if 3-person ballroom was a thing they'd be excellent at it (a side note - competitions do fun dances after each style and our last one was group latin, so my 3 coaches did it together and gave me this idea cause it was adorable) (want to be clear coaches are platonic friends this specifically was just very o'darwin coded)

alex styles his hair very casually, basically just the way it falls normally but aggressively hair sprayed into place. kasey slicks his back into a neat bun. kasey does nat’s hair for her, pulling it back in a twist back into a fancy ballroom bun with lil sparklies to accessorize

my former coach’s partner has a smooth jacket that’s - well idk if it’s actually velvet cause that’d be quite heavy for dance - but a velvet like texture and it’s subtly shiny under the lights and i imagine alex wearing that for smooth. paired with kasey, in something classic but maybe with some subtle detailing? rip

nat’s latin dress is black with gold detailing. the skirt is a high to low style and it’s super cute and bouncy. her standard dress is long and i wanna go royal blue. maybe red. or green. some bright royal shade. it’s got this beautiful full skirt and she has ribbons on cuffs she attaches to her wrists for certain dances. the dress has silver gemstone detailing on the bodice

they stay in a hotel for competitions and share soft sleepy kisses in the elevator up on the way back, heavy bags hanging off their shoulders. alex insists on carrying nat’s costumes for her (he’d carry her bag too but he doesn’t have enough arms for that)

cheering each other on from the sidelines and the two dancing always smile at their third when they hear/spot them

social dancing and nat is laughing while kasey twirls her all around, alex watching from the side, falling more in love with each laugh and smile from the two of them

falling into bed with each other, all soft hands and quiet giggles. they have passionate and rougher times too but in my head o’darwin are just so somft with each other. alex carefully taking nat’s shirt off and kissing each inch of bare skin he uncovers. kasey standing behind her with gentle hands on her hips, nosing at her neck. alex and kasey taking turns fucking nat and it’s different with both but just as good. alex getting his mouth on kasey and reveling in the sounds he makes

nat steals alex's sweatpants constantly. they fit better than kasey's so she steals his sweatshirts instead. kasey and nat steal each other's hair elastics, one of them always has one on hand

the three of them aren't like all over each other at competition, looking at them you might not guess they were romantically together rather than just dance partners, but you can tell they have a connection with each other through their dancing and know each other well. when partners actually like and know each other it shows and makes it that much better to watch. but if you paid close enough attention (not sure why anyone would but) you'd be able to see the quick kisses and gentle intimate moments between the three of them between rounds

now i'd put them in open, so they wouldn't have to wake up at the crack of dawn like us poor syllabus dancers (rip me), but if they were partners back then:

bb college alex and kasey partnering together kasey's first year (i put alex maybe a year older), and falling for each other towards the end of the year semester. they're never together, not really, but they've kissed and had sex and are close despite the complication of whatever it is their feelings are. kasey transfers schools after his freshman year and they're both devastated but they can't do a whole lot about it. they promise to keep in touch, but it's hard

at his new school, kase meets and partners up with natalie who's a freshman and new to ballroom. he's so shy and awkward around her at first, but he's patient and helps her learn. soon they become good friends and kasey gets less awkward. kasey is terrified to let himself fall for her after falling for alex, but he can't help it; nat is just so bright and delightful, and he finds himself spending hours outside of practice with her, just enjoying each other's company. nat - i don't wanna say wears him down cause that implies she pressured him, it's more she makes her own feelings known, respects his boundaries, and lets kasey sort his own feelings out on his time. together, they eventually decide to start dating, after kasey allows nat to kiss him late one night, saying he just wants to know, but really he's just too scared to say it outright. natalie is the one who asks if he'll be her official boyfriend. he agrees

anyway. back to 5am wake up times. comp starts at 8am, doors open at 7, and if you're in the first few rounds like they would be, that's when you arrive, hair and makeup already mostly ready if you can. nat and kasey staying together for their first competition and it's the first night they've spent together. they're bleary-eyed and exhausted, still new to their relationship, but there's sleepy kisses and gentle touches as they help each other get ready

they compete at bronze and do quite well, especially for natalie's first ever comp. i made my dear newcomer partner dance up to bronze because i've really danced too long to be in newcomer still, and she did great. anyway. it's a smaller comp, only one day. they don't place in anything, but they advance past the first round in every dance they compete, which is still very good

it's a long day for them both, but a fun one. a lot of time spent at ballroom competitions is standing around waiting for results. so there's a lot of that. they sit with the rest of their team ofc. it's a good bonding exercise

i have more thoughts but this is long enough as is so i'll stop for now cause it's nearly 2am and i really need to be asleep. i meant for this to just be headcanons and now it's gaining a plot. ah well

apologies if these don't make sense, i was awake for 20 hours straight sunday and wrote half of them in the car. i've been recovering since. also today i took a 2hr nap at 7pm and now here we are nearing 2am

ballroom basics for those who are very lost

ballroom is split into four styles for competitions:

standard: international waltz, intl tango, intl foxtrot, quickstep, intl viennese waltz

smooth: american waltz, am tango, am foxtrot, am v waltz

latin: intl cha cha, intl rumba, samba, jive, paso doble

rhythm: am cha cha, am rumba, east coast swing, mambo, bolero

in the international dances, you aren't allowed to separate from your partner. you stay in frame - hands clasped basically - the whole time. in american style, you are allowed to separate. there's other differences to some, but that's the major one. rumba, foxtrot, and tango are the ones that are most different.

collegiate competitions have two levels: syllabus and open

syllabus: there's a specific list of moves you are allowed to do at each level. the levels go newcomer, bronze, silver, gold.

open: you can basically do what you want. there are no specific guidelines to the steps you can do. within reason, i mean, you can't just start doing an entirely separate dance. this is when it gets really fun to watch. the levels go novice, pre-champ, champ.

some competitions will let you cross-register, which basically means you can compete at multiple levels. many also compete different styles at different levels, allowed at all competitions, because learning that many dances well is quite difficult and takes a lot of time.

after newcomer dances will start being paired. so if you compete one, you must compete the other. common ones at bronze are intl waltz/quickstep, am waltz/tango, and cha cha/rumba. those were all paired at my competition this past weekend. starting in gold, they'll put three or four dances paired. at open, all dances are paired. so for example, a standard event in all open levels would include intl waltz, tango, foxtrot, and quickstep. each couple would have to dance all four. then separately they would have a syllabus v waltz event, which is open to anyone.

though hosted and mostly attended by college teams, anyone is allowed to enter a collegiate competition. once you get to the higher levels, especially open, most dancers are not still college students. you can't get that good in four years, so if they are college-age they would've had to start beforehand. those who don't register with a team are generally just put in as unaffiliated. schools are registered under the school. coaches can register through the school they coach for as well, if they register together. my coaches have done both. this doesn't really make a difference. mostly just a way of organization more than anything. we still claim my former coach as our own despite her now living and working in a different state and coaching a different team with her partner. we don't like him. i digress.

i hope this helped anyone if you bothered to read it

So, I'll start with Yati, the love of your life. Usually, she had herself be perceived as a writhing black ball of shadows, however, she looks very similar to how you draw her, except she seems to be in 70s/80s clothes, cuz she gives off fives of that era to me. She was killed by an ex-lover (let's go with shot or stabbed, I'm leaning towards stabbed multiple times), and deems it unfit to be sent to the afterlife, cuz she really has a lot of unfinished business and a lot of rage inside her. She seems normal when around other members of the household, but when she's annoyed, her eyes seem to disappear, and her wounds show up on her body and start dripping when she becomes super angry.

Silas gives off Wrath, Pride, or Lust demon energy (pls don't ask why, I do not know) and so he's (he/they, right?) Usually in a mix of the three in a more human-esque form. Is this a reason to say that think they'd be a spontaneous child of at least Mortivitch and Galante via how demon babies can be born according to your lore? ...Perhaps. Anyway, in "human" form, they're like, stupid tall and have curled horns like a ram, they're eyes are a complete solid color (leaning towards two different colors, turquoise and orange. Idk why, I think those colors suit them) They're also dressed very casually for a Pride demon, and takes more after Mortivitch, wearing pink like clothes. Their demon form, like their true demon form, is where I have the most issue, because for some reason they give off almost cthulhu-like vibes, but also at the same time give off vibes of like a wendigo. So, like, a really emaciated skinny creature, with tentacles for hair or something like that, or vice versa. Sunken in eyes, almost looking like a skeleton, but they have skin, but the skin doesn't look right, etc, etc.

And lil ol me. I'm going to be self indulgent. The radio host comes out a lot more towards the night time, but I imagine that I would be in 20s or 30s androgynous wear, and my hair is always constantly waving around, like radio waves. I don't have any eyes, just blank white screens that seem to every so often almost glitch in a way, except for when radios do it. If I do get mad, I just look less and less real, I seem to turn fuzzy and I seem to shift and whatnot, until I am a ball of incomprehensible stuff.

I imagine that you are a newly graduated art student, who was looking for a way out of your parents house or something like that, and found this super cheap, I'm talking like in the low 10K range, house for sale, and it was super pretty, nothing looked like anything was wrong, it was all recently updated as much as it could while keeping the original charm, and it was on a huge acreage of land. However, it was literally stated in the sale thing on Zillow, that it was like, Omega Haunted. You decided to take the risk, and bought the house.
