im increasingly interested in writing fic about kaiba as a volatile, bull-headed, difficult person to get along with, and the effect this has on his relationships and the people around him... how mokuba deals with it, how atem deals with it, etc... loving someone in their entirety, flaws and all, while at the same time recognizing the relationship can be difficult or frustrating or upsetting... kaiba as a person capable of tremendous grace and self-reflection AND tremendous selfishness and high-intensity emotions and the people who love him know this... gnawing my bone, circling my enclosure...

Happy pride!! ATLA or Harry Potter? 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈
Zuko knows he's supposed to be surly and bitter about changing schools halfway through high school, but mostly he's so relieved to be on the opposite side of the country as his father that there's no room for any other emotion.
Besides, Azula is surly enough for the both of them.
"You're just starting, lots of people are coming from different places, so they won't all know each other either," he says.
Uncle had started getting that twitch in his eye that bode poorly for their tea pot. Zuko didn't get it, personally. Uncle has always dealt with Zuko's moods with nothing but cheerfulness, but Azula's always put him on edge.
"I don't know why we had to move," she says, laying on her bed and refusing to look at him. "You've already been living with Uncle for years. I shouldn't be here. Father doesn't hate me like he hates you. You should be here alone."
On second thought, it's probably because Azula takes after their father more than either he or Uncle would like, and he's never had much patience for Ozai.
He ignores it, just like he's been ignoring her jibes for years. She thinks she understands the depths of their father's cruelty.
She doesn't know the half of it and he's not going to be the one tell her. She's still his little sister. Protecting her is his responsibility.
"Ty Lee and Mai can visit over the holiday break," he continues. "That's only a couple months away. I'll bet you'll have a ton of new friends by then. You can introduce them."
She curls up on herself and he resists the urge to reach for her, knowing she'll just shrug him off. Azula is charming in the short term and intimidating in the long term and neither of those things lend themselves to making friends worth keeping. Mai and Ty Lee were the only real friends she had, everyone else just being tolerable to amusing. "Whatever. What do you know anyway? You already have a friend at this school."
"I don't know if I'd describe him as a friend," he says, somewhat dreading tomorrow if only because he'd let himself get roped into meeting him at some diner. There are still a couple weeks left of summer and apparently he's not allowed to spend it on his own.
Azula scoffs. "How else would you describe someone after getting lost in the wilderness for two weeks with them, fighting a bear, and rescuing an entire missing hiking group together?"
He'd told Uncle that camping was a bad idea.
"I do my best not to describe him at all," he says honestly.
He's the weirdest person Zuko's ever met, but he supposes being raised by a monk will do that to a kid.
Zuko is really hoping Aang has mellowed out over the past year, but the number of exclamation points he includes in his text messages bodes very poorly on that front.

is it possible for you to expand on the alphabet ‘H’ for yandere!athlete? I’m just curious to see the full extent of his punishment when he ‘snaps’. You don’t have to. This is my first ask so I’m just curious

"I'm not feeling myself today, so it's alright if I feel you instead?"
Trigger Warnings; bad writing, lovesick behavior, manipulation, toxic relationship, love bombing, reader is called 'girlfriend', fake emotional cheating (it'll make more sense later), um I think that's it, pretty tame ngl, honestly it's shorter than my usual posts sorry(( If I missed anything, then please let me know ♡ You are now 🐏!Nonny! Congratulations, you now have your own tag! I hope this is up to your standards... I kind of went on a tiny, just a tiny tangent, but what's new lol
Tumblr media
Okay, ngl, I've been waiting for someone to ask about this, so thank you 🐏!Nonny for asking)))
Now, to the question. I would like to preface that it would be very, very, very difficult to make LoveSick!Athlete 'snap', seeing as he's a very patient person, especially with those he's close to. Growing up, he had to be patient and easygoing. He was the oldest of his siblings, so he had to be responsible; had to step up as a father figure for his younger siblings, as he never had a real dad.
He's very soft with you, always speaking kindly, and never letting his anger or annoyance get a hold of him. He wants to be the best for you, truly, but there are just some things that make people... y'know snap. Even for people like LoveSick!Athlete, who has the patience of a saint.
So, now that we know this, we have to think of a scenario of when and why you'd ever push LoveSick!Athlete over the edge; what would've you said to make him that angry?
It'd probably be something along the lines of questioning either his loyalty to you, or the caliber of his love for you, and how much he provides for you. You'd have to take away his purpose and smush it; dragging it through the mud, and spit on it. Now, that would get him going. There's one thing that LoveSick!Athlete hates, and that's someone who's ungrateful.
He's done so, so, so much for you, can't you see?
It would've started from an argument, likely you bringing up how he seems too receptive to other girls on campus, too willing with their antics. And that just didn't sit right with you. You didn't like your boyfriend, in this scenario, hanging around with girls, who you thought to be very, very, very pretty.
Of course, LoveSick!Athlete thought this to be insane, something he hadn't even thought about. Ever since the two of you started dating, he hasn't even looked at a girl, let alone thought about sleeping with one. How could you even say that?
In this scenario, I can see LoveSick!Athlete being petty and becoming flirtatious with other girls just to show you that his behavior before was nothing. If you thought that was flirtatious, then wait until you see him now. Instead of pushing the girls to the side, excusing himself before they could corner him, now he's looking the girls up and down, giving them a little smirk, leading them on. He might even set a hand on their lower back, leading them through the party, maybe even kiss her on the cheek, if you've been rather ungrateful.
Now, LoveSick!Athlete isn't enjoying this, after all, you're his one and only, but you have to learn your lesson. You have to understand that he's been so kind to you, so appreciative of your relationship. Don't you understand? He doesn't like doing this; it's a punishment.
You, seeing all of this, would obviously be distraught. You'd feel so, so, so betrayed. Where had your sweet, loving boyfriend gone? Why was he replaced by some sleazy womanizer? You'd be both sad and pissed the fuck off. You wanted him to tone it down, not multiply it by one hundred!
No matter what, even if you're angry as hell, you'll end up in LoveSick!Athlete's arms, hugging him tightly. He'll find a way to sweet talk you back to him, telling you that you're his only one, that he's just showing you that it wasn't that bad. He'll explain his public image to you; he's gotta stay on top of it, surely you understand, babe? I have no interest in those girls. They're just thinking with what's between their legs. You have to trust me.
Now, that's if you question his loyalty to you, but if you question how much he loves you (which is kinda of related to loyalty, but just ignore that), then you'll face a different type of manipulation. Mans got a whole tool belt on him (I've been waiting to say that lol).
Questioning how much he values you, your affections, your words, and your presence, will lead to love bombing. And for those who don't know what love bombing is, it's a manipulation tactic where the manipulator will use excessive affection to make their victim depend on them for love, believing that they'll only be valued by the manipulator.
LoveSick!Athlete is very familiar with this form of love since he grew up with a mama who has bipolar disorder-
(To be clear, I don't mean to say that everyone with bipolar disorder is a mass manipulator or anything. In certain people, especially mamas who are juggling an abusive marriage, two children, and postpartum all at once, it can be a lot and lead to bad behaviors. Just wanted to say that as someone who deals with a mama with bipolar disorder)
-Now, as a young adult, he's grown the habit of absentmindedly using manipulation tactics to get what he wants. It'll all start with a small argument, you'll question his lover for you, if he even cares for you. After all, he seems to be more attentive over his image than you, his girlfriend!
And all LoveSick!Athlete will do is smile at you, saying that he understands your concerns and that he'll do better. Obviously, this will confuse the hell out of you. Who responds to an argument like that? Certainly, no man you've ever dated!
Even if he doesn't realize it, he'll begin to show excessive amounts of affection after the argument. He'll constantly be giving you hugs, clinging onto you like a leach, and spamming you with messages/calls. You'll grow accustomed to the overbearing affections, allowing it to become a part of your daily life, but the moment you're used to it, he'll rip it away.
Suddenly, it's as if you don't even exist, like you're just another girl to him. Of course, he'll acknowledge you as his girlfriend, but he's no longer touching you. He's not hugging you, having an arm wrapped around you waist, nor is he holding your hand in public. It's as if he's embarrassed about your relationship. You'll begin to think that LoveSick!Athlete is cheating on you (he's not).
And this sudden behavior change is so delayed that you won't even relate it to your argument, thinking that it was a whole separate issue. And LoveSick!Athlete won't realize it either; it's just subconcious decision he made without knowing.
At some point, you'll come crawling back to him, desperately wanting the affection you used to be overwhelmed by. Of course, LoveSick!Athlete will be overjoyed, welcoming your upfront behavior with open arms. To you, this is like whiplash. Just a few days ago, he was off-putting, giving you the cold shoulder, and now he's leaning on you as if he can't stand himself, what the hell is going on?
And that's when you realize that you're not dating the most... stable individual...
Not to mention what he let his teammates do to you... but that's for another ask, yeah?

Ever since we saw Finn and Simon’s little failed camping trip
Tumblr media
I’ve been thinking a lot about this scene in ‘Prisoners of Love’, the very first Ice King episode in the whole show.
Tumblr media
Because like… even this early on, long before Finn even heard the name ‘Simon Petrikov’, he already recognized that Ice King probably needs some serious help. But being a young child and a ‘simple dude’, he can’t give Ice King the help he needs - and he knows it. He just kicks his ass and rescues the princesses basically because he’s painfully aware of the limits of his emotional maturity. 
And now, Finn and Simon are genuine friends and he’s actually the first person Simon really confides with about the fact that he still needs help
Tumblr media
And while his child self was sure he couldn’t help Ice King, he’s now honestly believes (or at least wants to believe) that he can help Simon
Tumblr media
And he tries so earnestly to help, from the bottom of his heart, and he still fails miserably and he doesn't even realize it!
Tumblr media
On some level because he’s still that ‘simple dude’, but he actually had a better understanding of his limitations as a child than as an adult. And on some level because he has grown more complex, but in the sense that he now has a fuck-ton of his own trauma and grief that he has no idea how to handle.
Tumblr media
And it just says so much about how far these two have come, and how much Finn grew and matured since the start of Adventure Time and how much things changed - and also how much they’ve stayed the same. And like, even about the nature of ‘maturity’ in general. Y’know, what does it mean when Child Finn at his very childish knew his limitations so vividly - while as an adult he denies them?
But I’m also thinking about the last part of Finn’s ‘Prisoners of Love’ dialogue - the part where he suggests that the Ice King could talk to Jake. Especially when everything about Finn and Simon’s F&C interactions happens very obviously under the shadow of Jake’s death.
Tumblr media
Now, I was never really quite sure that ‘Prisoners of Love’ Finn was right about Ice King needing to talk to Jake. I think that was more of Finn idolizing how wise and mature his big bro was. Because, like, Jake kinda alternates between genuinely giving a lot of good advice and between just saying whatever makes excuses for his many personal vices. Plus, he always had less patience and sympathy towards the Ice King compared to Finn.
Tumblr media
Including that very scene! That’s literally shown in the next line of dialogue!
Tumblr media
But, maybe if it was Finn and Jake together - the combination of Finn’s sympathy and genuine drive to help and Jake’s wisdom and good advice could've helped a lot more. And also... it is literally Finn’s grief over Jake that indirectly led to Finn’s attempt to help Simon to fail so spectacularly. So you can at least say that if Jake was around - as in if he was still alive, maybe this wouldn't have turned out so badly.
And also.......
It feels pretty notable to me that by the end of the Series, the person who did get Simon to the root of all of his Issues, possibly the most important singular conversation Simon had
Tumblr media
was with Beth the Pup Princess. The Jake of the +1000 Era. Quite possibly Jake's literal reincarnation.

mmph. i fell hard for the town doctor already; and i'm in need of some hugs with him </3
gender neutral reader, sfw, romantic/platonic
Tumblr media
running the clinic in pelican town wasn't as easy as many think it is. sure, less people does equal to some not-so busy working hours. sorting through medical files, organizing documents, making sure all of the information is up to date... harvey is glad that he has maru taking care of some of the shifts. however, all those restless nights where he had to scramble around for his coffee mug—as the only light source came from his monitor, as he filled in the monotonous "yes/no" questions that would fill up the screen...
it made harvey feel so, so very exhausted already; by just the mere thought of it.
harvey adored his position, as he did slave away hours of his life at medical school for a reason. there was something that connected him with medicine. even if there's something more personal with him and aviation, he could find comfort in knowing that what he did with his life was right. there was something that did urge at him, though, that his dreams of being a pilot felt as if they were just selfish. selfish, in a way, that he only wantes to fulfill what was right for him—not for the countless others that are in need.
though, with time, did come with patience and understanding. he knew that not all dreams can come true; but he wasn't deterred by it. as long as he kept on getting those model planes in the mail, and still listen in on the air traffic every now and then—he was able to enjoy those simple, little delights. at first, the title of "doctor" felt like a burden to harvey, a pang of emotion hitting him whenever he'd be referred as that. it was something a person had to experience; as it was hard for harvey to even begin to place what that feeling meant to him.
wiping his mouth off with the cuff of his olive overcoat, harvey finished drinking his evening coffee in his upstairs apartment. it was around 12pm; the time where he'd enjoy to go outside, trying to not let the stale air of the clinic get to him all too much. even if he just stood outside on that bunch of grass for hours and hours, it always served as a great space to just appreciate what he has here. great friends and job, in an equally great place here in the valley. those moments where the doctor could just relax inside, not having to worry about anything (just yet) was what he lived for. all that hard work then satisfyingly pays off—for the better, really.
as he got up to run some water in the sink, to clean his mug, he heard a gentle knock at the door. he knew who it was exactly. with a gentle grin to himself, harvey went to go place down the cup on the countertop, as he made his way towards the door. opening the door, you knew you probably had just made his day, as he immediately asked how you were doing; oh-so happy to have seen you. with such emotion, you reciprocated harvey's affections, with a heartwarming hug of your own.
"what's gotten you so excited?" you felt his voice reverberate against your chest, your head comfortably next to his; your hands behind his tall, strong back. "not that i mind, however."
harvey allows his friends to come to his apartment; as he not only appreciates the company. it makes him feel also appreciated, that someone would want to spend at least just a moment of their time upstairs. there were times where he hates having such a big space to himself; he knows that it's not the biggest flat, but, he couldn't imagine living in anything greater. it just reminds him of how lonely he could get at times. with his job requiring him to move to this place and that... harvey enjoys knowing that there are still people out there who understand. he doesn't want to be the "busy friend" all of the time; he works because he cares, and he works very hard to at least get a day off—a day off to where he can at least spend his time doing what he enjoys most. namely, being with you.
as you laughed, a bit embarrassed by how you hugged him, you withdrew—still holding onto him. he chuckled by your mumbled apology, and reassured you that everything was okay.
"it's okay! well, glad that you've been well."

Ideal types in partners - Alhaitham, Scaramouche, Ningguang, Ayato
☆ ☾ ☆ ──────────────────
Alhaitham
Ideally, someone more outwardly emotional and expressive than he is. He needs someone to balance his more reserved nature - as well as someone who can read him well enough to not get scared off by it. He can be a bit too blunt with things. Fights may arise out of this if you can't handle that part of him, so it's better if you're sensitive but not Too sensitive.
Intelligence is important as well. Alhaitham needs to be able to have complex conversations with his partner. You'll need to be able to keep up with him when he talks about his interests and knowledge. Will probably be overly fond of having debates with you over academic matters.
Overall, someone who has enough empathy to understand him and perhaps bring his own emotions out more. He's a complicated person! Understand that about him and everything should work out.
Scaramouche
He needs someone with the patience of a saint. You're going to have to deal with a lot of things. Mood swings, teasing, and the fact that he's often harsh (even when he may not mean to be). He can be difficult. His partner must be able to accept all of this easily, without blowing up at every little thing.
I think he would do well with someone affectionate. He's spent many years feeling abandoned and distancing himself from others. To have someone who is very openly loving toward him would be a welcome change, and would certainly help him settle him as a person. He may say it's annoying if you're clingy, but he's just as clingy himself. :)
You must be able to read between the lines with him - he doesn't often say what he truly feels or thinks outright. He's often an actions over words sort of person. He may not say he loves you so straightforwardly, but you can see it in how he treats you so long as you pay attention.
Ningguang
Someone who can challenge her. Ningguang, after all, thrives on such things. She is surrounded by people who admire and revere her, people who take her word for gospel, who hang on each bit of information or order she gives. What will make you stand out is that you don't do that. Question her, bicker with her, show that you have a mind and will of your own. She'd love to banter with you.
She doesn't have much need for wasting her riches on herself, but expect to be showered in expensive gifts. Ningguang would like someone she can spoil. Accept what she gives you. She won't take no for an answer when it comes to this.
Know that she will often be busy. You will need to have enough independence to spend a lot of time without her. Don't expect her to drop her work for you, and don't be too needy. She is yours, but she is also Liyue's. If you aren't the sort who can accept this, things wouldn't work out.
Ayato
Much like Ningguang, he's often extremely busy. And, again, you'll need to be able to get along well enough on your own when he is.
He needs a partner who is good with people. You'll have to go to events with him, talk to others of high social standing. Maintain a good public image and get along well with others. Have good manners and be polite. And, most importantly - be intelligent enough to tell when someone doesn't have Ayato's best interests in mind, and refrain from saying anything to them that might come back to bite you. To that end, someone who can defend themselves would be ideal as well, considering how many people go after him, and may go after you…
It is, of course, expected that you'll be completely devoted to him in every way. Love is nothing without loyalty, in his eyes.
Being the leader that he is can be rough. If you're able to easily comfort him after a long day, it would be appreciated. Ayato takes care of many things, including you. Take care of him in return.

Private Meeting
Diavolo x reader.
Genre: Smut
A/N: another piece written for one of my friends. Reader is female. Warning for brief mentions of breeding. Read at your own discretion.
The slow ticking of the clock feels ten times louder today. Diavolo almost feels irritated as the deep silence,  the scraping of his pen against the paper and the noise coming from the clock combine in an uncomfortable symphony.
Then again, perhaps it's not the atmosphere in his office that irritates him. To be completely honest, he has been feeling like this for a while. And how can you blame him, when he has barely had the time to be with you?
He loves the seven brothers, he really does! They are his dearest, and dare I say only, friends... but recently his patience for them has been slowly thinning. Why must they always be in his way whenever he wants to spend time with you? Of course, it's only natural. He gets very little notice whenever he's free from his royal duties, and by that time the brothers already have you roped in one of their plans. He understands, he is not angry... but oh, the burning envy.
Perhaps that's what made him act so rashly today. It was truly a display of foolish behaviour from him and for a moment he wondered if he made the right choice. He didn't come any close to answering that question, but he settled on realizing he really doesn't care if it was a smart choice that a prince like him should make. It's the choice he wanted to make. And he made it.
He knows he shouldn't call you in his office all by yourself. People talk... and, plus, he knows he probably made you feel anxious by being so demanding about your presence before him. But he couldn't help it anymore, he had to see you. And maybe... he knows just how to make you forgive him.
Right at that moment he hears a knock at his door. The sound almost completely shutting up the annoying cacophony that was drilling his brain a moment prior. He knows it's you. He recognizes even the sound of your knocking. Just how much time has he spent focusing on you and all those little details that make you so perfect in his eyes? He couldn't tell.
"... MC. Please come in. And shut the door behind you, would you?"
You do as he says. Anxiety rising once again as you hear his rumbling voice. He sounds so serious... it makes you wonder if you did something wrong. You barely take one step inside the dimly lit office before he raises his gaze towards you and fixates it on your eyes.
"Turn the key, MC." He specifies with a clear voice. He follows your every movement as you backtrack and lock the door.
Now you turn to look at him again... and you slightly relax. Yes, he's tense, but he doesn't seem to be angry. You've learnt to recognize most of his emotions in a matter of seconds. Impressive, considering you get to spend much less time with him, compared to the seven brothers. That's an ability you both share, among other things.
He sets his pen on the table and leans back against his chair. Golden eyes still fixated on you.
"... Come here." His calm voice makes you move almost like by magic. You reach him in a few strides. The quiet of the room is now making you feel uneasy and tense... or maybe it's the way Diavolo is looking at you. You stand at his side and look down at him as he reaches for your hand and places a soft kiss to your knuckles.
The touch of his lips is caring and intimate... Now you think you know what this meeting might be about.
"I'm sorry for calling you here like this, my precious little crown jewel... I was simply missing your company. The brothers have been taking up all of your time lately..." You give a slight chuckle at his whiney voice. When you first met Diavolo you didn't think that the crown prince of the Devildom would be so utterly adorable. It's quite charming.
"Please allow me to keep you here for a while..." He nuzzles his face into your soft hand. "We'll just come up with an excuse later, okay? Please say yes..." He mumbles as he slowly pulls you down onto his lap. And... how can you say no to him while he keeps begging you in a low voice as he trailes warm kisses along your neck? Moreover, you have missed him too. You would say yes regardless.
A small, but most excited smile graces his handsome features as soon as you give him a nod.
"Oh how I've missed you, my beautiful gem~." He leans in to kiss you, slowly and sweetly as he holds onto you tightly, almost as if to make sure you wouldn't just disappear right then and there.
You make yourself comfortable in his lap and return all of his affection. It's crazy how small you can feel when you're in his arms. I mean, the demon is massive. Even bigger than Beelzebub, and he is a behemoth.
Your train of thought gets interrupted as you notice a change in pace. Diavolo's kisses are becoming hungrier, greedier. You can barely keep up with his enthusiasm, but you don't stop him, caught up in the moment yourself.
His large hands start roaming all over your soft body, indulging in every single curve they find... and that's when you feel something stiff pressing up against your back. How did things escalate so quickly? You let out a few whimpers as you feel Diavolo making his way up your uniform skirt.
"This is okay, right darling? I'm sorry, I've been wanting you for so long... I can't hold back anymore. I keep seeing you walking around town with the brothers while I'm holed up here... I want you all to myself now.~" He gives a light nibble to your ear as he pulls your thighs apart and sets them on top of his parted legs... locking you in place. His fingers pull your damp panties to the side and start drawing slow circles around your clit.
He knows exactly where to touch you to work you up slowly and give you long minutes of searing hot pleasure before he decides it's time to bring you over the edge.
"You're soaked my dear... you missed me too, didn't you? Of course you did. Hells, you're always making me act irrationally.~" His sharp teeth leave a mark on your neck as he bites you. He picks up the pace with his fingers, slowly pushed to the breaking point by the intoxicating scent of your arousal. The further you two go... the harder it's becoming for him to keep a grip on himself.
He can feel you coating his digits with your sweet honey as you moan sweetly in his lap and that's enough to make his mouth water and to snap the last threads of his patience.
With a low, deep growl he rips your panties off of you and lifts you up enough to unzip his pants and free his hard, throbbing cock.
"Hah... need to... feel you right now.~" He manages to mumble before he lowers you down on his dick, filling you up completely with a low groan. You don't think you'll ever be completely used to his size... but you're not exactly complaining either.
He lets you lay your back against his chest as he starts thrusting hard, fucking up into you while his hands busy themselves with the buttons of your uniform top. Soon enough you feel the air hitting the bare skin of your chest.
"Beautiful... my beautiful MC. So perfect for her prince.~" One of his hands squeezes your chest greedily while rubbing a finger against the hardened nipple. He can never get enough of you, of your body, of your soul. You really are his precious jewel, the most important thing in his life. He must keep you all to himself like any dragon would do with their rare treasure. Guarding you jealously.
His pace quickens fast. You can clearly tell he's losing grip on his self-control. You've learnt to recognize the signs. His body is warming up and his laboured breath is coming out in little puffs of smoke behind you. And the nails gripping at your body tightly are slowly becoming sharper and pointier. Only you can do this to him... render him completely out of control. He might be the one making you see stars with every thrust right now, but he's completely at your mercy. Always was, always will be.
"Hells... I'm so close. I'm gonna cum, love~! You'll let me breed you, won't you~?? Let me fill you to the brim, teasure~!" You can barely let out an affirmative squeak as he hammers inside you at full force.
"Fuck, I love you so much MC~!!" He exclaims as he gives a hard, deep thrust and starts spilling himself inside your tightening walls. For a moment you see pure white, as one of the best orgasms of your life washes over you. It's enough to make you scream and curl your toes.
You both keep still for a while, trying to regain control over your senses as you fill the room with soft panting. You can feel his warm, creamy cum slowly leaking out of you despite him still being buried deep inside your hole.
"My love... my queen...~" He whispers into your ear. His voice full of love and devotion. "Are you feeling okay? Did I hurt you anywhere...?" He checks up on you as he always does, worried he might forget just how strong he is and go too far with you. But you shake your head, easing his worries immediately. He could never hurt you.
"... I'm glad~." He leaves a feather-like kiss on your neck... and in a moment you can feel his hands gripping at your hips firmly.
"Because that was not nearly enough to satisfy me.~" He says as he gets up with you and makes you lay your hands flatly on his desk. His chest pressed against your back as his hips give a little, light thrust inside your overflowing pussy.
You can feel your legs getting weaker at the thought of what's about to go down.
Maybe... not seeing each other so often is not such a bad thing, if this is the result when you finally get to be together.

“—Can I get an Amen?”
Bendy and the ink Machine
Ink Demon Headcanons
Tumblr media
TW: NSFW MENTIONS, MENTIONS OF SADISM, HEARING VOICES
Now before we progress, I am aware that this man isn’t friends with Boris and Alice in the actual game, and that he very much wants Alice dead and very much wants to reconstruct Boris. So i guess this is an au? Because they’re friends in this.
ɢᴇɴᴇʀᴀʟ ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴꜱ
✞ The ink demon isn't one to speak. His lips won't part to make utterances but you will always hear him; Like a demonic flux of voices swirling themselves around your head.
✞ When he has something he wants to say, only who he wants to be heard by will hear him.
✞ You might look daft babbling out responses to the ink covered demon, but only those who've spoken to Bendy will realise he's talking to you.
✞ He has quite the temper.
✞ He won't say anything about him being pissed off, but you will feel him.
✞ Be it by an army of deformed creatures dragging you to the depths of the workshop, so he can punish you for the foreign emotion you've made him feel, or by putting you into a state of shock.
✞ He'll make the ink from the soup you'd generously consumed, crawl it's way into your brain and put you into an intense amount of pain until he finds you and deals with you himself.
✞ God have mercy on anyone who tries to get in his way.
ʀᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴꜱʜɪᴘ ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴꜱ
✞ The ink demon is extremely possessive.
✞ He can come across as sadistic when trying to keep what's his to himself.
✞ Whilst you’re wandering the floors below with Henry, he'll always be watching. Nails tapping harshly at the desk as he tries to remain calm, knowing your job is to lure the lone follower to him. But his patience can run thin very quickly.
✞ Whenever you leave the workshop, which he doesn't really like, he will send you letters, signed off from "Joey Drew."
✞ Usually saying to come down to the work shop for whatever made up reason that sounds believable.
✞ He knows you'll always read through the lines of course, and take his letters as his way of saying he misses you.
✞ He's not one for PDA's, the most he'll do is cup your chin with his fingers, forcing your gaze to meet his own whilst he strokes a finger over the soft flesh of your cheek bone.
✞ He prefers to love in private.
✞ Beckoning you to sit on his lap whilst his hands explore your body like a sacred piece of treasure, littering kisses up the skin of your neck and cherishing every little sound that escapes your lips like a lullaby, further feeding his addiction for the mortal being that is yourself.
✞ That desire for you being displayed at most when he has you beneath him; nails dragging along his back whilst you scream his name.
ᴘᴇʀꜱᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴꜱ
✞ How you came to fall for someone like Bendy always confuses Alice and Boris.
✞ For such a sweet person, you've come to love such a vile creature and it's baffling.
✞ Boris has always taken a lighter approach when describing Bendy; depicting him as just being lost and scared, not really understanding what he's doing and desperately wanting help, which he keeps on denying.
✞ Alice thinks he's just an upright selfish asshole.
✞ He'll damn near start a riot to get what he wants, and the way he becomes so fixated on the littlest things is just irritating for her.
✞ Despite this, deep down he still knows how to care. He just can't help what the foreign liquid does to him.
✞ Friends are family to him, and he will look out and provide for them as best he can.
✞ But when things don't go right he gets irritated and takes it out on himself.
✞ Only growing more infuriated when Alice starts lecturing him.
ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴꜱ
✞ The ink demon stands at about 7'1.
✞ When angry, ink will leak from his pores, coating his flesh in the dark substance.
✞ He doesn't really eat a lot.
✞ He should, but it's not something his body relies on.
✞ He likes it when you bring him snacks though, he'll always appreciate it deep down, with that never ending smile on his face reflecting his appreciation.
✞ As a result of the ink's effect, he often hears voices which he easily gives in to.
✞ They'll beckon him to do their bidding and corrupt everything around him.

How do you see Max and Neil relationship? I mean I know you ship it but why specifically? I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!
I see them my personal fannon wise as having a really deep connection and dynamic where the lines of platonic and romantic love get blurred (when they're older) and even though they're both really terrible at communicating that verbally, and their emotions in general as people, they both just know they can be way more comfortable, honest, and vulnerable around each other than other people bc they really are each other's person. Even when I'm shipping them with other people their friendship is still greatly important in their lives.
Just a silly little HC I have but: Max is shown to be impressed with Neil's capabilities and Neil is shown to be attention and ego-driven. Even though Neil knows not to take Max's opinion too overly highly bc, c'mon it's Max, I HC Neil secretly really likes the way it feels to be "Max's exception." The asshole with few friends and is hard to impress or understand.™
I think I've said it before but I'll say it again too much of maxneil is just ""max and his boyfriend"" rather than Max AND Neil. Max being a huge fan favorite and some fans wanting to give him a romantic partner and Neil being the closest dude in arms reach. Often just focusing on what Max can receive, how Neil feels about Max, what he can do for him, ect.
I love Neil as a character, he's my silly skrimbly and deserves his own life with intricate issues, and affection, and his own needs and flaws.
Neither one of them has endless patience!! They're both very morally grey just in different ways! I love using those aspects about them to come up with angst.
More Cannon-wise though I mentioned how Max is BIG on first impressions not only that, he's goal oriented and specifically wasn't looking for friends in the first episode. When meeting Neil for the first time this kid was: A: very openly unhappy with the situation, and B: smart. Max saw Neil as useful and felt a sensation of kinship. It wasn't until he cussed and yelled out Campbell did he also find him interesting and someone to give more respect towards, due to that sensation of kinship multiplying at the display of taking no shit and yelling at authority about it.
Max still wasn't looking for friends but Neil had showed him a side of his personality that paved a good way towards that anyways. Max trusted him pretty quickly to escape with him.
We know Neil and Nikki had both been victims of bullying, (Neil mentioning being the outcasted kid himself in the Jermy Fartz episode) so they developed a heavy clingyness to their first friend. (In the episode foreign exchange campers they're incredibly distraught he didn't want to be on their team. They're watching him and getting angry/sad about it. I honestly think this same problem they have socially comes back in the recent finale. Neil and Nikki need people to like them more than Max does, he's actively seen trying to calm them down about it.)
So where Max has a "push everybody away" method Neil and Nikki have a "hold on and never let go" to an unhealthy amount. Nikki moves past this partially, Neil doesn't.
Neil had a robot he made JUST to be his friend turn on him FOR being clingy and needy. He blinked away a TEAR when Max called him temporary. Max may have saw him as a friend first but Neil more openly held it closer to his heart.
They both have way more in common than people notice, Neil isn't really the voice of reason to Max's chaos. It depends on the day. Max can loose control of a situation he created for his own gain, Neil looses control when trying to gain attention or gain lack of it actually.
When Max thought he lost Dolph to bears Neil said hope you find him! And outed, But in camp cool kidz when Max starts an uprising after Neil gives him the idea, he's the only person to willingly stay on his side.
When Neil's AI got out of hand Max was impressed, but Neil had to drag him to help. Where as when Neil was lying about the story of Hanukkah, Max tried to give him advice and help him out.
Max both simultaneously uses Neil like a henchman sometimes, but Is impressed by his actions and capabilities. Neil is VERY attention and ego-driven. Max saying he's too dumb to find something just so Neil will happily fetch it for him is him playing on that, although it's a mean move it really shows how well he knows Neil. And even openly admits Neil knows him well too.
Max was the only person who knew/Neil trusted with his bathroom issues. (I hc Neil asks Max to whistle outside the outhouse for him and Max is like "do you know how many superstitions tell you not to whistle outside at night/j" and Neil is like neither one of us is superstitions just start that remix already istg!!!)
Both of their personalities hold so many similarities as well as alot of negative traits so they do bump heads alot, unlike Nikki's behind your back type shit talk, Neil insinuates once to his face he was smarter than Max and got a foul reaction from it.
This post is a lot more messy than the Nikki one as I can probably easily break down a timeline where Max warmed up to Nikki, but with Neil he seemed to connect with him pretty quickly, in reigny day where I mentioned he was quick to shut nikki down, in the same episode he's very driven to figure out where Neil is. Their dynamic is more complicated I think bc when Max and Neil aren't getting along it's more clear and direct and often due to their similar things. Pettiness, selfishness, egotisticalness. On the other side of the same coin they act silently attached to the hip and almost above other people together.
So I guess I ship it BC I like interpreting them with that very big understanding they have of one another, that deep rooted camaraderie, balanced out with that banter of being sassy little shits but in different ways. The potential angst of when they've already become THAT close but their problems of different moral greyness get too big.
The idea of them spending nearly every day together, and deeply loving each other but never actually saying it or expressing their affection in traditional ways, yet still feeling and knowing that love is there.

If you are ever down I would love your take on a Luke with a ND partner, maybe one who isn't expressive or picks up on social cues. says what ever comes to mind. Takes things a little too literally, is blunt in conversations. Like someone who struggles with their tone so people think they're bored or mean when they really have constantly racing thoughts and new ideas and are always open to new relationships.
I'm pretty sure it has never taken me this long to answer an ask before, but I wanted to make sure I'd put the same time and effort into yours as I did with every other one so far. Sadly I never seemed to get the free time to do so until now, so I REALLY want to thank you for your patience, anon, and hope you're happy with the result🩵
Please note though that for requests like these I'm only able to draw from my own experiences which possibly differ from those of others.
Accordingly nothing I said about "you" is meant to impose any kind of insinuations about behavioral patterns on those reading this, nor is it my intention to criticize or sound harsh in any way.
It goes without saying that Luke, as a friend as well as a partner, couldn't be any more wonderful to be around and I believe that especially for someone on the neurodivergent spectrum it's basically a dream come true to date him.
(Apart from that he's definitely that one friend who listens to you when you think nobody else does and waits for you when you need to stop to tie your shoe laces.)
He's empathetic and sensitive to the emotions of those surrounding him and thus would never make you feel like you don't belong, are weird for acting a certain way, or like you'd be better off pretending to be something you're not to "fit in".
And while Luke's connection to the Force certainly adds a lot to the fact that he has no trouble reading you, he would manage to just as well without it.
Still there's no denying how useful his abilities could prove themselves to be in a relationship, especially should his partner struggle with expressing themselves.
I won't go into much more detail though, because many of the things I already talked about in my other posts regarding his understanding and supportive character can be applied here as well.
(e.g. Master Luke Skywalker headcanons, Luke with a partner on their period, Luke x a reader with mental health issues, breaking down in front of Luke)
However I think it'd be really interesting to take a look at his initial reaction to getting to know a neurodivergent person with the behavioral features you described since I believe they differ depending on which Luke era we're talking about.
• ANH Luke wouldn't even bat an eye
• on Tatooine everyone has to put up a rough exterior in order to protect oneself
• it's not a place of friendly conversations and common niceties; people know they're better off minding their business and staying on their own
• you're very blunt and speak your mind?
• you seem unfazed, even bored during most encounters?
• good for you, it's not easy to navigate this corner of the galaxy and much safer to hold others at a distance
• growing up Luke came across a wild array of all kinds of beings too, one more interesting (and really scary) than the other
• he's not put off, instead even used to supposed unfriendliness
• also he doesn't know anything about where you're from and your people, maybe that's just the way they are and how you were raised?
• he probably thinks you're very cool too
• because surely you have seen a lot? Been on great adventures across the galaxy?
• he really wants to do the same
• if you come across as mean without meaning to it's not a big deal, it only makes him want to spend even more time with you
• ("if mean, then why friend-shaped??")
• most importantly ANH Luke judges a person more by their actions than their words, so there is absolutely no need to worry about how he may perceive you
• it's safe to say you're not getting rid of him as it's nearly impossible to shake him off once he decides he wants to be someone's friend
• he's more than delighted once you get to know each other better and it turns out his intuition was right!
• ESB Luke, on the other hand, may be a bit slower to come around
• not necessarily because he dislikes you but because he doesn't have the time nor the patience to put effort into really getting to know you
• people talk and so he probably heard a thing or two that has him eyeing you curiously
• most likely he won't pay you much mind as he's gone most of the time anyways
• generally speaking though, I think you'd get along pretty well, Luke is a friendly and open minded person after all and would surely grow fond of your quirks before even knowing about their source
• still there's a possibility of the two of you butting heads should it come to an actual meeting
• nothing really severe, of course, but still I can see Luke growing easily frustrated at, for example, your lack of expression, or at your questions when you don't quite get something and want to make sure you understood everything correctly
• and while he's not going to show it or tell you outright that he thinks you're a bit annoying, he's not that good at surpressing dramatic sighs or a roll of his eyes
• HOWEVER if you catch him off guard with blunt words said in a tone that could come across as mean it could definitely get a rise out of him
• after all we get to see that he has developed a certain attitude; he's snippy, quick to talk and slightly judgemental
• (mainly towards Han and Yoda but I can see him acting this way quite often because of all that he's being put through)
• I'm sure that under different circumstances Luke wouldn't react as strongly but with how things are during ESB he might hurt your feelings without meaning to
• once the dust settles and he has a quiet moment to himself he'll feel awful though and most likely seek you out to make amends
• naturally RotJ Luke is a different story altogether
• (the character development this man went trough is absolutely crazy, and I'm amazed every time I do comparisons like these)
• before even taking to you for the first time he'd regard you with a warmth and patience you seldom get to experience
• he quietly smiles to himself when he overhears you having a conversation in that special way of yours or when he senses something sparking an idea
• he appreciates your bluntness
• maybe at first you'd think he's laughing at you but don't worry, he just thinks you're cute
• he feels you in the Force, senses your excitement, your curiosity
• it draws him in
• he is able to see you as a whole, not just what you present on the outside, and so isn't deterred by what others would view as a potential attack or criticism
• (take notes ESB Luke)
• once you've grown closer he's always there to point out social clues you might have missed and/or walks you through certain situations to explain how your behavior might have looked to others when it's something you're worried about
• often he knows what you're going to say before you do and, if that's what you want, gives you a sign you agreed upon, letting you know if maybe it'd bet better for you to be silent instead
• (he absolutely explains dumb sexual jokes to you when you don't get them and I don't care how self indulgent this is, I could really use someone to do that for me, thank you very much)

somethign about how ray bursts into sands apartment and sand, in his usual slightly annoyed but mostly calm manner just asks "why are you so frustrated? is it a withdrawal symptom?" makes me want to chew cement. like he's not even really phased by getting shoved in his own house by the guy who last he saw was sweet and loving and just enters his "ok how can we fix this' mode. like hes always a lil sarcastic but just something about in this moment instead of immidiately getting angry in return, him basically saying "why are you upset, whats wrong?" is just sooo. and like im not good at faces so throughout the fight to me it just looks like sand doesn't have any emotions except the fact hes crying a little but i think thats on purpose. i think hes purposely trying to remain neutral. he's always moving closer to ray, who keeps shoving him back, without making any actual move to touch him, just little steps to keep a safe distance without being too far away. like i haven't watched the apartment fight in over a month and i know how it goes but i still thought there were moments where sand would reach out to hold ray (maybe this is because im in an examing ep 4 ray headspace and that was a ray that was very loud about how much he needed to be held) and he obviously he didn't but to me it looked like he was going to... idk just something about the understanding and patience sand has for ray and ray loving him for it but also self sabotoging about it has me in my feels

FSR Rambles 14 mental illnesses-
Tumblr media
Cutting from Dark's tantrum, it becomes evidently obvious Dark isn't angry at Shadow in the way he's seen people show anger.
Smth to consider:
Everyone who's angry so far has been...Explosive. (Vio is like, the only one who's just been steadily annoyed.)
Blue and Shadow both get pretty explosive when they're mad, Vaati too. So...Dark doesn't have much to go off of in the way of nuance in showing he's angry/mad at someone.
Literally zero to one hundred.
Dark even outright asks Shadow Link "Am I mad at you" likely because he's just...kind of mad Shadow and Vio are close and he's jealous but Dark's understanding of his OWN emotions are basically none.
He's even "Embarrassed" and thinks he should have looked at Blue's memories to get a better grasp on anger.
Don't do it Dark-
Dark's flip flopping between his attempts to show anger and his natural mellow personality is night and day.
Switching to having sharp teeth again to reflect Shadow Link.
Tumblr media
1st panel is pretty evident: He's just saying shit that Blue has been feeling lmao.
Dark again speaks in the 3rd person here. Twice now it's been used to try and speak about himself from someone else's perspective.
Vio's afraid of him, but the previous time he did it, his "Yay Dark Link" line if you remember was smth he WANTED Vaati to feel about him.
Shadow is rightly confused as HELL about what Dark is even talking about. Dark not so casually does conform though he was the one who was messing with Vio earlier.
The three panels of Dark's face are some of my favorites because it shows just how little this conversation matters to him from a serious angle.
His act of being pissed breaks immediately with his inability to hold back a grin at how silly he feels he's acting at the moment.
Dude's having a fun time but Shadow's patience has run dry and he snaps at Dark to "just answer me!"
While the Triforce of power glows.
This makes Dark stop what he's doing and freeze up.
Tumblr media
I'm sure this page confused people. Because it's kinda. Weird.
Dark stops talking and is just frozen up.
Shadow doesn't just ask him a question, but an outright demand while his Triforce glows.
Dark starts screaming with a terrified look on his face and elaborates plainly what he's doing there, he covers his own mouth quickly after.
Shadow's disturbed by this interaction and looks down at the Triforce on his hand.
So basically if you were wondering:
Shadow made Dark talk here, albeit on accident using the power of the Triforce.
Which is why Dark started screaming and twitching because he had no choice but to respond.
Tumblr media
With his autonomy ripped away from him Dark is rightfully terrified of Shadow Link.
His fear is so strong he holds his hat close to himself for comfort and hides his face, apologizing his loyalties lie with Vaati and not Shadow Link.
Shadow tries in vain to clear up the identity confusion.
Tumblr media
Okay but from Dark's perspective "Gannon's" just being a lying weirdo. X'D
Dark knows "The truth" and he can't really comprehend why "Gannon" is still keeping up the lie that he's a different person asking plainly if Shadow's afraid Dark wont' like him.
Shadow's obviously very fed up, reminding the audience and Dark that he has no fucking clue who Dark even is at this point.
Fun thing about the panel where Dark mimics Shadow's face, the panel of annoyed Shadow and the panel proceeding it both share some line art. X'D
Dark was "mimicing" again but goes right back to his actual feelings.
He doesn't actually care about Shadow's identity crisis at all when it comes to not telling anyone else about it. Stuttering while he talks.
He's confused why Shadow gets to "Lie" in this instance but Vio's lies were bad and deserving of anger.
Keep Dark's confusion over lying in mind.
2nd to last panel talk:
Shadow just, has no idea how to deal with this dude.
Like it's evident Shadow has a hard time keeping up with Dark's nonsense but it's REALLY evident there.
"Wtf is he talking about?" face is pretty funny.
Dark being shocked they might hate Shadow more for lying than being Gannon is a fun assumption on Dark's part, leading Shadow to ask outright
"Are you trying to give me advice???"
From Shadow's perspective, it sure does seem like Dark is trying to give him advice. X'D When Dark is just saying how he feels.
Tumblr media
Fun questions from Dark...
If Shadow can "Switch around what you are" ...a phrase that's very up for debate wtf he actually meant by that statement,
Can Dark do it too?
Shadow seems to take it as Dark asking if he could be a good guy too, and says "yeah sure why not".
Whatever Dark DID mean by that, he seems to take Shadow's reply well and laughs to himself about it with a very pleased expression on his face.
Keep that, in mind.
Dark sits back down and asks Shadow a pretty...weird question.
"Do you think Vio will still want your kisses if he knows who you are, King Shadow Link?"
Again showing Dark's focus is on really random things that pertain to his interests. Because he doesn't ask Shadow if Vio will TRUST HIM, or still LOVE HIM, or even if he'll still want to be his friend.
He asks if Vio will still kiss him.
Which is like, super specific.
When Shadow's like "idk"
he gets giddy and resounds Shadow FOR SURE should tell him the truth.
Why?
Tumblr media
Well that face really says it all.
Dark in some way thinks Shadow would be an obsticle to Vio's affection... HUh.
Wonder where he got that from...
Cough cough BLUE-
This line is the nail in the coffin for Shadow as he's full blown pissed off now.
Dark's perpetual jabs at Vio have finally made him crack.
There's for sure a hint of jealousy in Shadow's actions too.
Dark exhaling pollen as he sighs is probs only amusing to me.
His SASS in the words "...Is FIGHTING all you two know how to do?"
Clearly referencing Vaati in this statement, clear annoyance in his face.
Dark is already fed up with both Shadow and Vaati's quickness to fight at the drop of the hat.
Dark does take up his gigantic sword and gets ready to fight.
His lines are pretty telling about how he feels this is an obligation to make Shadow Link "have fun".
"...If you have fun, at least that'll make one of us...right?" - Dark finds fights boring and meaningless and really doesn't wanna do this, but since it'll make Shadow "have fun" he's up for playing along.
The eye on his chest looks distinctly bored with this as well.
his next line is kinda, weird.
"If we win, we get to celebrate...so there's that...yay..."
This line is meant to be in reference to Vio and Green's fight, and how afterwards Shadow and Vio celebrated.
His little "...I'm trying to get excited about it" explains his little "yay" to hype himself up.
Tumblr media
Dark focuses on defense in this fight for the most part, blocking Shadow's attacks.
"Are you having fun yet? Can we stop soon?"
Dark's really not feeling this fight and just wants it to be over.
He takes another page out of Vio's book an tries to make his opponent unable to fight.
In this case, he disarms Shadow by parrying his sword out of his hands.
Dark's murderous expression paired with Shadow's face reflecting in his blade is a pants crapping image if you were in Shadow's shoes I'm sure but for the audience it's cool as hell.
Tumblr media
Dark, again, had the chance to hurt someone majorly and chose not too.
Which really reflects the kind of person he actually is I feel.
Dark chooses to give mercy to people.
He just lets Shadow fall onto his ass.
Though, don't get Dark's question mixed up. X'D
He did not ask Shadow "Did that hurt?" out of kindness or concern. He asked it out of genuine curiosity.
Tumblr media
Shadow has a second of hesitation before slamming that sword full force into Dark.
Ouch.
Dark had a hard time with that swing.
His continuous mumbling about how he really doesn't want to fight are just kinda sad.
The visual of Dark swinging this huge ass sword around, and trying to balance again once he got Shadow off him is so oddly cute.
Shadow reflects on how he's filling the role as the "bad guy" here because of Dark's behavior as well get into with the next page.
Tumblr media
I mean. He's right.
Dark's just defending himself against Shadow's attacks. He's not trying to hurt Shadow.
Not actually attacking or retreating is gonna wind up in Dark getting hurt, so Shadow wonders if this is the right choice, considering his options.
If Dark was fighting back, this would be an easier moral fight. But Dark isn't. He's just defending himself or disarming Shadow so Shadow can't try to hurt him.
Dark being a moral mess to deal with is a continuous theme...
As Dark's behavior leads him to be very hard to deal with as an enemy or an alley.
Shadow decides that he IS gonna fight Dark still but gets rudely interrupted by a flashbang.
Ouch. Not the eyes.
Dark covering his chest eyeball. Ouch.
Tumblr media
Shadow cowering in the Shadows lmfao. Poor dude.
Poor dark has 3 eyes that got hurt in that nonsense. Vaati's team spirit just ain't there.
It's a sad thing to consider Dark has gotten almost nothing but pain in his short time existing as a conscious individual.
Vaati very rudely grabs Dark's face in a very possessive manor. Because he sucks. XD He lumps in Shadow Link with Link in how the curse functions... which Dark tries to interject with...Something, but Vaati tells him to "Stfu"
Their interaction through this whole thing is just...This: X'D
Tumblr media
Vaati is very sick of Dark speaking, at all. So just tells Dark to be quiet.
The repeated idea of Dark not liking lies/people misinterpreting things is just a thing to note.
Tumblr media
Vaati thinks he can get hooked up with 2 evil Links.
Little does he know-
Ya know we'll get back to that...
I just wanna point out to the audience:
Shadow is a huge dick here.
In trying to insult Vaati and built himself up he just tore Dark down which clearly hurt Dark's feelings.
There was no need to say that Shadow. 😭
Oh but there was...
To show the audience Shadow's still a bit of a douche bag...
Tumblr media
Dark mimicking Vaati's pissed off expression is so funny to me and only me.
I know like, NONE of yall read the pillowfort excusive comic.
But it's cannon Dark's ears are ticklish so that's why he laughed when Vaati whispered to him.
He gets more serious when he realizes Vaati's sayin' smth important and whispers back.
What Vaati and Dark are implied to have said I'll get into in the next page.
Tumblr media
Shadow ain't a fan of the secrecy.
Turns out Dark just told Vaati what he saw.
Which was smooching and hugging lmfao.
Vaati proceeds to laugh his ass off about affection he'll never receive.
Dark is utterly confused about being patted on the head.
Dark just sits there thinking to himself over what Vaati's saying + Vaati's action.
Tumblr media
Welp. Vaati's being a dick.
Dark plays with Vaati's hair idly while he talks shit.
And we get to a very hilarious panel imo. Dark hugging Vaati and Vaati being utterly disgusted with the action.
Thoughts:
Why did Dark hug Vaati?
Well there's a few reasons he could have
He could have KNOWN it made Shadow jealous. He took Dark rubbing his head as clearance they can touch each other just fine. He just likes Vaati and wants to touch him.
Shadow's blatant jealousy isn't missed by Vaati either.
Just gonna point out, the background hue keeps shifting to match emotions.
Purple for fear, red for anger and the green for jealousy.
Tumblr media
Vaati's an asshole so he rubs Dark's head in an attempt to make Shadow jealous further.
Vaati is nothing if not an emotional manipulator.
Dark appreciates the head scritches at least.
Again Vaati seems to get smth wrong, and Dark tries to correct him and gets cut off.
For shoving his finger in Dark's face Dark unceremoniously licks it.
Which is funny as hell to me, especially how one of Vaati's eyes glares at him for this but he's too busy trying to be manipulative to tell Dark off. X'D
The smug look on Dark's face would lead one to think he knows it pissed Vaati off that he did that. XD
Vaati's persuasion is shit, so Shadow sees right through it.
Tumblr media
Huh...Funny Shadow only seems to humanize Dark slightly when Vaati's abuse tactics used on Shadow are thrown back into his face on full display.
FuNNY HOW THAT WORKS.
Also Shadow's dialogue's important so I'll expand on it.
Him admitting he did shit wrong. Yay character growth. UwU
He can relate to being trapped. Bro was trapped in Link's shadow and SUFFERED so...it's safe to say he knows how Vaati's imprisonment feels.
Shadow dropping the "Family" muhahaha. He loves his dumbass boys. UwU
Vaati continues to suck.
The sudden gripping on Dark's shoulder makes Dark wince. Ouch.
Tumblr media
Omf. That line hurts.
Vaati and Shadow's relationship is one sided pain and hurt with the promise of love that never comes.
Shadow broke out of that cycle by breaking the mirror but still has to put up with Vaati's crap.
Dark views this with expectant eyes.
Vaati's monologue here just reflects his time after the events of the minish cap manga.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shadow's response, my boy grew up lots.
He clearly feels bad Vaati went through that but say it with me
IT AIN'T HIS PROBLEM.
Tumblr media
Haha oh Shadow's words are very telling about how he feels about the past.
"Vio means it this time...right?"
His wants now are just stuff like "I wanna have a bed!"
reminder from the flashback he DIDN'T HAVE ONE.
He wants to spend time with Zelda and Link in a meaningful way.
visual references to BOTW Link and Tetra because muhahaha.
Shadow's words about "Failure" is kinda telling.
Being a villian in a Zelda story means you fail. The hero will virtually always defeat you and you'll be left with nothing but pain.
Shadow wants no part of that shit...
But his reasons is kinda...selfish?
He doesn't say "being bad is bad because you're bad!" he says "Fuck I don't wanna fail anymore."
He settles on a life he finds obtainable because Gannon and Vaati's dreams are INSANLY UNOBTAINABLE not because he doesn't want those things too.
Because let's be real if there were no consequences...Shadow would do whatever the fuck he wanted. XD
Tumblr media
Vaati's not the only one who can project! SHADOW CAN DO IT TOO.
Failing at the hands of the hero over and over is smth Shadow feels Gannon's emotions on. Dude is so sick of it.
Fun chameo from our favorite hero ever.
Navi.
Jk. Hero of Time...I'm sure he'll never be relevant ever again.
Shadow's acceptance of a lowkey life pisses Vaati off.
Tumblr media
The perpetual failures being slung in his face was just one too many.
Vaati's reached his limits of anger at both Dark and Shadow Link.
Tumblr media
Oh.
He didn't squeeze him like a squeaky toy this time...
If you're wondering "Why didn't Dark dodge?"
Last time Vaati carried Dark off and when he DID try to hurt Dark he tried to slam him into the ground, not CRUSH HIM.
Tumblr media
Dark didn't perceive being held alone by Vaati as a danger so didn't bother trying to escape.
Shadow's terror at this action like, really makes it sink in Vaati means business.
Tumblr media
Vaati's sick of everyone at this point omf. Dark just stays limp as hell which sucks for him.
Shadow channaling the power of the Triforce of power decides to fuck Vaati's shit up.
Tumblr media
This was 100% inspired by the Guardian/Blight lasers lmfao because that's FUNNY.
It really sucks to me we don't really see what the Triforce of Power's abilities...ARE.
So I'm just going with "Shit Gannon can do in other incarnations" because that's all I have to go off of. 🤷
"Turning the wieldier into a pig monster" was smth I saw but that only really happens to Gannon with the explanation that he's losing control over his piece and himself? So...Shadow switching to pig mode here wouldn't make much sense. X'D
And YAAAAY DARK LINK IS SAVED.
Due to pure selfishness on Shadow's part-
Okay look I'm not gonna sugar coat it.
Shadow didn't save Dark because he cares about who Dark is. He saved him because how Vaati treated HIM was being put onto Dark. Shadow's projecting to hell onto Dark due to the abuse he faced and ONLY helped him due to that reason.
Round about say to say: He doesn't pity Dark here, he pities himself.
Tumblr media
"That's not what matters right now." - Shadow said like a liar.
This wasn't a logical choice in the slightest and Shadow has no justification for his outburst in this regards because it was 100% anger at his own past abuse being slung in his face and has nothing to do with Dark the person being abused.
Shadow just as an afterthought asking if Dark is alright kinda sements that.
IMAGE LIMITS ARE SATAN'S MISTRESSES.
So I guess I'll pick this back up later.

the theme through nona the ninth that love in itself does not make you complicit in anything, nor does love in itself absolve you of anything. you can continue to love something terrible, even having seen it for what it is, and that doesn't automatically confer its awfulness onto you. neither does it free you from the responsibilities and consequences of your own actions. the emotion of love, even for a monster, is morally neutral. you still have a choice what to do about that love, and you stand free to turn your back on and walk away from it if that's what you choose (and if it's hurting you maybe you should), but no one can tell you to stop loving it at any stage of that. no one has the right to tell you to love or to not love whoever and whatever you do.
I suspect that's part of why the spirit of the earth (? as close as I can figure lol) chose john in the first place; I do think he has an incredible capacity for depth of emotion, including love, especially seeing as he has lived on sheer passion-induced wrath for ten thousand years.
but earth-that-will-become-alecto didn't have a handle on the finer points of humanity enough to understand that human love in isolation means very little. love unaccompanied by other things -- by qualities like kindness, curiosity, patience, grace, understanding, reciprocity, thoughtfulness, fairness, generosity, compassion -- is just an emotion, a force of nature, for good and for ill. they left you. I can't forget. does anyone in these books walk away from having been loved by john without being scarred by it? how many of them still love him too, even as his love is slowly destroying them? many thoughts.

love your work and everything you do, so excited for the month of march fics coming up !!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ a fic a day is incredible and idk how you do it honestly 🙏🙏🙏 does this mean that hold is on hiatus for now ?
Oh thank you!!!
It was so fun doing @steddielovemonth so I'm excited to tackle Stobin Month! I don't write enough fics about them and them alone so it's been fun so far.
Hold is on a temporary hiatus. I'm aiming to get the next chapter out in April. Right now, I have so much going on, but I start a new job next week so my writing time is cutting down drastically. So I'm not able to tap into the headspace I need to write hold.
I added an update to the authors note for the last chapter, but to reiterate here: I AM NOT giving up on this story!! It's a passion project for me, but since it doesn't have a timeline or any outside pressure other than wanting to get the next chapter to you all, it has to be the first to go. I need to focus on my posting challenge, my STRBB fics, and my exchange fic (and I have a few big bangs I plan on signing up for!!) so I'll be shifting gears a little.
If I wasn't at such a pivotal moment in hold, I think I'd be able to continue writing as normal. But I have an Eddie scene and an Eleven scene to write for the next chapter that are heavier, so I need to do them the right way and not just knock it out.
Thank you all for the support and understanding!!! I'm having so much fun and feeling really fulfilled with my current writing load, so the patience about the hold situation is very appreciated!! That being said... Here's a teaser (under the cut) for the next chapter to hold everyone over (no pun intended) until I can post it:
“Hey, hey,” Steve coos, coming to a halt at the edge of her crib. He picks her up without hesitation, sending a sharp pain up his left arm as he cuddles her close. It doesn’t matter, he could care less about his pain as long as she’s okay. “You’re okay,” he says, “Daddy’s got you.” 
“Steve!” Robin huffs as she comes up beside them. “You shouldn’t be picking her up.” Whatever look he gives her must tell her everything she needs to know. She sighs and runs a hand over Charlotte’s wild dark hair. “I can hand her to you so you don’t hurt your hand,” she says softly, “let me help.” 
He presses his lips to Charlotte’s head and sways in place, shushing her. Charlotte, not Robin of course. “I know,” he tells Robin then goes back to talking to Charlotte. “We woke you up before you were ready, huh? I’m sorry, sweetpea.” He adjusts his hold on her to check her diaper, nose wrinkling. “Sure you want to help?” he asks Robin. 
“I think I can handle a dirty diaper.” 
Charlotte’s cries have stopped, but there are big tears on her cheeks and her bottom lip is pouted out as she looks up at Steve. He’d do anything for that face. 
Steve has to look away, eyes going to the bare, white ceiling as the fury comes back to him all at once. He blinks his own tears out of his eyes, all of the emotions hitting him like a goddamn train. “She left her,” Steve breathes out. “She fucking left her, Rob.” 
“She was so blasé about it too,” Robin punches out, walking away. She’s opening the drawers to grab something, closing them with force but not slamming. 
“What’s that mean?” he asks, dropping another kiss to Charlotte’s head. He drifts over to the chair they stashed in here during the move, an extra from the set his mom gave him, and sits so Charlotte’s laying against his chest. The movement emphasizes the pain and settles his heart all at once, but Charlotte’s sniffles and little noises make it worth it. 
Robin takes a moment, putting together the outfit for Charlotte. “Does she not have any dresses?” 
Steve’s brow furrows as he thinks about it. “I think she’s grown out of a few. I don’t know.” 
“I’m all for giving the bird to gender stereotypes and letting her wear boy clothes,” Robin says as she holds up the basketball onesie that doesn’t fit Charlotte anymore but Steve can’t part with, “but I don’t see any onesies with snaps that fit her and pants are going to be a nightmare for the foreseeable future.” 
Shit. 
Steve groans and adjusts Charlotte so her cast is more comfortable against him. “I didn’t even think about that.” 
“When would you have had the time?” Robin asks, closing the drawer. She’s out of the room before Steve can answer her.

brick intro
brick has always been kind of difficult for me to write in a way that properly conveys how i actually characterize him. also because i hate writing in his pov. he's a loser /lh
i know there's a lot of ways that he's interpreted and that two of the presiding versions settle for him either being a very stoic, emotionally dense man or an obnoxious brat driven by gross-out humor. both of those have pros and cons to them that i see come up a lot in fandom discourse - personally, i don't really see them brick's sole personality on their own.
as a kid, he's definitely a demanding little shit who thinks he's in charge of everything. doesn't realize it's because he's garnered a lot of favoritism as an 'heir' (to what, who the hell knows, since [hc] it ultimately ends up going nowhere.)
even as he gets older, brick's ego is bolstered by the fact that he thinks he's leader material. i've alluded to the fact that the rowdyruff boys don't really have a leader for this reason; it's just easier for boomer and butch to acquiesce to how brick thinks their hierarchy is structured, and simply work around it. or rather, butch works around it; one of brick's biggest points of contention with boomer will always come down to the fact that he didn't step in line like he was 'supposed to'.
over the years, he's challenged a few times by his brothers - not necessarily for the 'leader position', but it's the most probable way i see brick interpreting it. it's the role he was made for, after all. it leaves him blind to the efforts his brothers put into their survival and leads to his martyr complex [hc].
this is where the brooding loner part of brick's personality comes in. this is how he chooses to present himself, because that's how he thinks he is. mysterious, lonesome, and carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders all by himself; something that is obviously untrue, but a mentality that has persisted since childhood. what was once just self-centeredness and a desire to have things his way coalesced into a mindset that often keeps himself apart from the rest.
in reality, brick's emotional. he's needy. he doesn't understand the art of subtlety at all and is usually very surprised when he realizes people know a lot more about him than he'd thought.
he has yet to grow out of that phase where acting mysterious and withdrawn results in garnering attention. i also don't think he realizes that's what he's doing, trying to seek attention to remedy how he keeps pushing people away. no matter how much he tries to act aloof and distant from people to shoulder his 'burdens' alone, he's a lot more social than he would like to admit.
he's just also terribly, terribly unsocialized. has no idea how to take other people's feelings into account, speaks without thinking first, and usually dooms all social interactions with his stubborn insistence to keep up that edgy persona (which either wards people off successfully with little fall-out, or leads to him losing his patience and lashing out at them anyway.)
going to all these lengths to feed his own personal narrative makes him kind of pathetic and starved of interaction. there's also a part of brick that just refuses to acknowledge that there are people who care for him and try to be his friend - namely, his brothers.
no matter how much of an insufferable prick he can be at times, when everybody else has left brick to sulk in the corner, who's still there ?
nine times out of ten it's butch, whose patience and support brick kind of treats as something he's entitled to despite how often he tries to brush butch off. brick doesn't realize the fact that butch lets him is, in itself, an act of generosity.
in brick's eyes, their relationship is relatively straight forward. butch sits quietly in his shadow, speaks up when he needs a mediator, otherwise staying out of brick's way. a lot of the time, butch will offer an ear for brick to rant to or a shoulder to cry on (and no, brick will not admit to how many times he has in fact accepted those offers. they don't mean anything.)
his relationship with boomer is a little more complicated. he's the one out of ten instance when it comes to trying to meet in the middle. those instances get more scarce as they get older.
boomer is usually at odds with brick like it's his sole purpose in life. disagrees with him constantly, flies off to do his own thing, remains unreadable and unpredictable no matter what they're fighting about. rarely can brick rely on boomer to ever make sense to him.
he's brick's biggest source of criticism and is far less forgiving than butch - if brick understood their interactions as such, and not just boomer deeming it fit to be a permanent obstacle for brick to hurdle over. to him, it just feels like boomer is contrary for the sake of it; sometimes the critique (often about being self-absorbed, not seeing the people around him with value, etc.) sticks, sometimes it makes him stumble in his tracks. a lot of the time brick just tries to brush it off.
boomer simply doesn't understand. none of them do. that's what brick tells himself. he's in too deep now to start backing out of this life he's made for himself. to have to sit down and acknowledge that there are people outside of himself, who suffer and sacrifice just as he does, it would mean he has severed all his relationships for nothing.
for brick, there must be some great burden for him to carry. whether he has to subconsciously make one up or heave around 'the sins of the father' is irrelevant. if there is no burden, then there is no brick: it's what he was made for.
there's this assumption that he was built to be the martyr in a more genuine sense. i think it's less the pressures of mojo and Him (though there's an element of that as well [hc]) and more the fact that without it, brick doesn't know who he is or what he's made for.
at least this way he has a purpose. the edgy facade is optional and in its own way a method to try and remedy his own relationship breakdowns. what brick is at his core is a bit of a crybaby who refuses to lie in the bed he made - which doesn't immediately condemn him, but also doesn't immediately redeem him either.
i think it's interesting for a lot of brick's angst to be self-fabricated. the solution is perfectly within his grasp, it's just a question of whether he'll reach out and take it.
relieving himself of his homemade burdens would have a number of consequences that brick not be prepared to handle, most notably being: acknowledging that he owes people an apology, that there is no longer anything 'special' about him, and that he affected more people than not in his attempt at martyrdom.
at the end of the day he's very prideful. he's a self-orientated 'lone wolf' who's never given himself the opportunity to know what it's like being supported by those who care about him. and now he's dug himself too deep into that independent lifestyle where he now cannot ask for that support without having to try and make ammends first - and to do that means admitting he was at fault, that he was too prideful, that he can't do certain things on his own.
for somebody like brick, it's a tough pill to swallow. so for now, he doesn't. he'll probably continue this cycle until there is truly something he can't do without help - he'll wait until the very last minute, sure, but inevitably he will give in.
i think as well, brick probably carries a lot of the stereotypical notions that asking for help is a weakness. it's not something that's ever been told to him so much as something he told himself to keep up his martyr complex. he has yet to realize that what sets apart genuine martyrdom and a marty complex is what purpose the sacrifice is for: i don't think brick would want to look at himself and admit that a lot of the sacrifices were for his own gain, in a roundabout way. wouldn't want to admit to feeding his own delusion of grandeur with empty self-denial.
it's definitely something that boomer has thrown in his face a couple times. that brick suffers to feed his own ego - not to help others.
trying to unpack any of that would mean to question how brick functions, change it, work on improvement. and nobody ever wants to do that.
// 😌100% serious about him being a crybaby btw. like brick thinks he's so closed off and stoic all the time, keeps all his emotional troubles to himself, etc. has no idea that he has so many tells or that he leaves a trail of evidence everywhere. in reality he's super expressive, both in the face and in his actions. way more sensitive to things than you'd think he'd be; can hold his own in arguments and is not an angry-crier, but starts tearing up whenever certain topics come up. he's not empathetic (a work in progress) but he's emotionally vulnerable - can't handle talking about animal death or funeral/will preparation, or even thinking about the fact that people might just one day leave and not come back for all that he tries to get people to do exactly that. a bunch of his silly little hobbies are known by his brothers. they know his favorite food, his favorite color (not red, surprisingly,) and that he still has a shoebox of mementos from over the years that he hides in his closet. there is very little about him that's really a secret - maybe a few things about brick that are simply lesser-known or hidden a little better, but definitely nothing that's sealed under lock and key. in reality, his brothers are a lot more secretive than he is. brick's the one with his heart on his sleeve and opinion on the tip of his tongue. he might be awful in how he conveys a lot of it, but it's most certainly not the mysterious, reserved way he thinks it is. like i've said so many times: brick is such a loser. it's so funny

TAGS: DOMESTIC FLUFF, TALKS OF MARRIAGE & CHILDREN
How about a DILF!Erwin who only got a DILF tag because he adopted a child without involving himself into a long-term relationship?
And so... after getting into the relationship, you realized how great of a father he is. If both of you decides to come into agreement to be together for eternity, you'll have to have your own kids, too. You suddenly got jitters thinking about it.
"We're not required to do that."
"N-no, but it seems as if we have irreconcilable differences," you replied, perhaps inkling towards breaking up with him as you believe you would just hold him down.
"Not if one of us compromises."
"I don't think I could."
"I could," he answered, gently but resolutely. "Just not with the involvement of my child."
"Of course," you gave him an understanding smile, "that sweetest loveliest child."
He didn't see it as a mere sympathetic smile from you, though. It was the sweetest smile that he had seen and it flushed his mind with warmth—with overwhelming warmth that the glass containing all of his composure snapped into pieces. You love his child with all of your heart, just like he does even if it's not his own blood.
What were you doing to him, really? To rattle the emotions even he himself had never imagined to have, just how did you manage to let that out? Now he wants nothing but to engulf you with his warmth, wrap himself all over you, and the consideration that he doesn't deserve you—you who still have lots of opportunities ahead, who has been seeking a life not tied inside a measly home of three—dissipated into thin air. He might be undeserving and could even stall you down, but if you run to him this way, being the most precious being ever existed, then you have given yourself over. He'll take you in any way he can.
"See? Then we could work."
And he did—god—he did so very well. Eventually, when you got married and have your bundle of joy growing up further, you realized that you're finally ready.
"Off to school!" the little kid bounced out of the table, gave you the routine goodbye kiss, until both of you are the only ones left in the house.
You gulped, wondering how to go around it. When you turned to him you almost huffed a gasp. He was looking at you sternly with a hand propped to his chin. He sipped his coffee before starting, "Something has been bothering you. We're not going out until you tell me the gist of it."
Oh, fuck it.
You stood up, went on the dishes then said, "I want to have your child."
He spurted out the coffee. As he cleared his throat and wiped his polo shirt, he stared at you, aghast, trying to find a hint all over your face that would say you're just fucking around. That was, indeed, very unlikely of you.
You looked conflicted, though, so he walked towards you and grasped your hand away from the plates, "Repeat that."
Your eyes lurking around his face turned more and more unconfident until you just defeatedly looked down the ground. "Of course, if it's fine with you—"
"Repeat that," he cupped your cheek, lacking patience, and forced you to look at him in the eye.
He has been waiting for it for so long but he still wanted to make sure. The last thing he wants is for you to make such a decision only out of pressure.
"I want to have your child."
"Then why do you look so doubtful?"
"Do you think..." here it is, the million-dollar question, "I'll be a good mother?"
Oh, when Erwin thought you couldn't be more divine as he already deemed you so. He went for a kiss then. The sudden tip of intensity was his answer and you understood that much; you'll be a great mother for your child—no, you're the only one who's going to have his child.
"You already are," Erwin said in between kisses as he slid his hands under your shirt.
"Do you think I'd still be a capable wife after that?"
What kind of question is that? He almost laughed. Of course, he chose not to as he didn't know such insecurity lurks around your mind. If anything, he feels responsible for letting you feel like that.
"How do you want me to answer your question?" he smiled sweetly after ending the intimate kiss with a chaste peck. When you looked down again, he hummed in disagreement. He rather walked you towards the wall and pinned you once and for all. If you want a child, he'll do so in the soonest possible time—just like how willing he is to grant and serve you for the rest of his life, just like how earnest he is to shower his little family with the warmth of his love.

im having the urge to produce a 30k blabber out of this 😭
