mushrooms and mayhem
Genre/Tropes: Mutual pining!! Jade uses a LOT of pet names!!
Summary: In order to get back at Octavinelle for messing with them, some Heartslabyul students stir up trouble for you. Jade, funnily enough, doesn't like that very much.
Author's Comments: BUCKLE UP GUYS I WROTE AN ANGRY JADE!!! I'VE BEEN WANTING TO WRITE ABOUT THE SIDE OF JADE WE DONT RLLY SEE THAT MUCH FOR A BIT SO HERE IT IS!!!!!!! He's also mildly uhhh possessive so yeah. There is physical violence here also so watch out for that!!
~~~~~
The leaves on your succulent were starting to shrivel.
Tilting your watering can towards the plant, you let the water pour and soak into the soil. Humming a tune to yourself, you watered the rest of them carefully. Setting the watering can down once you finished, you took some time to check on Jade’s mushrooms, which were growing right next to your succulents. He insisted on placing your plants right next to each other, and even though you didn’t understand his reasoning, you agreed.
(Succulents needed quite a bit of sunlight and very little water, while mushrooms needed darkness and a moist environment. They could not have been more different, but Jade made it work somehow.)
He was so cool.
The log seemed to have housed the new mushrooms beautifully, their little clusters slowly making their place in the rotting wood. You felt happy at his success, knowing how much Jade was looking forward to his mushrooms growing.
Taking out your phone, you took a quick picture of them and sent them to him.
Your mushrooms are doing great!!
A smile worked its way onto your face as the little bubble at the bottom of your text changed to read. Of course he had his phone on him, he always responded to your messages very quickly. The small typing bubble popped up in the other corner as you stared down at your phone, waiting anxiously for his response.
Thank you for checking in on them, Little Pearl. I appreciate it.
You squealed at the nickname, doing a little dance before clutching your phone to your chest. The nickname was something you adore, but had never quite gotten used to.
With hearts swarming around your head, you set the cloth back in place and picked back up your watering can. You might as well check on the rest of your plants too, since you had the time. You went to check in on your spider and snake plants, both of which seemed to be doing well too. You felt your spirits droop a bit when you realized you’d have to leave your little sanctuary, but cheered up when you realized that you could now go see Jade. Unlocking your phone again, you started to type out another text.
No problem! Anything for you!
You stopped, heat creeping up your cheeks.
Wait, was that too forward? What if he thought that was weird?
Steeling yourself, you didn’t hit backspace and kept typing.
I’m heading over to the Mostro Lounge to see you, so wait for me there!
Sending it, you started at your phone and waited for a response. You never had to wait long, and like always, he began typing quickly.
I’ll be looking forward to it.
This time he sent you a picture of your favorite drink, Floyd’s eyeball in the bottom corner of the screen making you choke on your laughter.
Apologies for Floyd. He insisted he say hi to you.
SHRIMPY COME QUICK OR I’LL COME GETCHA!!! >:3 !!!!! <333
Beaming at your phone screen, you savored the moment before slipping it back in your pocket. Placing the now empty watering can on the nearby table, you began your walk back to the front of the botanical gardens.
“Stupid…Gonna get them back…come on…now…nobody…”
Stopping in your tracks, you strained your ears to catch bits of the conversation. It seemed like they were talking around the area in which your succulents were, but they didn’t sound like Jade or Floyd. You began to move closer, this time slowly, holding your breath and silencing your footsteps just like Floyd had taught you during last year's Beanfest. As you peeked into the clearing in which your plants were, you took notice of three figures around Jade’s log.
“Hey, doesn’t the Prefect come around here sometimes to check on this piece of trash?” one student asked, nudging the log with his foot, “Aren’t they supposed to show up soon?”
“Nah man, they just left. I made sure to watch out for them.” another student answered, “This is the perfect opportunity to get back at those Octavinelle bastards. We shouldn’t waste it.”
You narrowed your gaze, eyes flickering over each of their figures. All of them were relatively tall. Two had brown hair, one was blonde. All of them were Heartslabyul students. You definitely hadn’t seen them around before, but you could ask Ace and Deuce about them if they did anything fishy.
The group circled Jade’s log, throwing off the black cloth, your eyes widened as one of them raised their foot, clearly about to smash the log to smithereens.
“Stop!” you yelled, jumping out into the small clearing, “What do you think you’re doing?!”
“Ack-! It’s them! Dude, you said they’d be gone by now!” one of them hissed, taking a few steps backward.
“Idiot, it doesn’t matter! They’re magicless, we can take them!” the one who had his leg raised over the log smirked at you, “What, you don’t want to see this log gets smashed? Is it important to you?”
“You want to get back at Jade, right? Well that log isn’t his! It’s my mushrooms. You’ll be destroying someone else’s things.” you lied, brain running a mile a minute to get his mushrooms to safety.
“Hm. I don’t believe you.” He snickered, stepping away from the log, “But hey, if we need to beat you up before getting to the main event, I’m game.”
You steeled yourself against the three students, sneakily removing your phone from your back pocket. A quick few taps and you sent your location to Jade’s phone. He knew where you were, but sending him your location would tell him everything he needed to know.
You were in trouble.
“Why are you so intent on destroying those mushrooms?” you asked, trying to stall for time so you could figure out a way to save them.
“What do you mean, why?” one of them scoffed, stalking towards you with a fearsome glare, “Azul messed with one of our friends. Cheated him out of a deal. We’re going to get him back tenfold!”
Azul doesn’t do that. He’s just smarter than the rest of you.
“Then go for Azul. Why go for the Leech brothers?” you furrowed your brow, “That doesn’t make any sense.”
“That’s none of your business!” he yelled, leering at you as he got a bit too close for your comfort, “Quit talking and scram!”
“No. I can’t let you destroy my plants!” you shouted, holding your ground as your heart pounded in your chest.
“Grah! Whatever, just smash it!” he huffed, grabbing your upper arm harshly, “This bitch isn’t going to let it go.”
A loud smash echoed through the greenhouse before you could process what had just happened. Tears filled your eyes as you gazed upon the broken log, the mushrooms Jade tried so hard to grow scattered across the ground as the other two boys stomped mercilessly on them.
“You bastards!” you screamed, punching the one that grabbed you hard in the stomach.
He staggered back in surprise, clutching his stomach with wide eyes. His two companions began to laugh, cracking their knuckles as they surrounded you.
“Aww, did that upset you? Why don’t you run to Jade then?” the blond one mocked, pulling his fist back as if about to punch you.
You got into the fighting stance Vil had taught you, prepared to defend yourself so you could do just that.
“They don’t need to.”
That voice had never sounded so beautiful to your ears, the blood rushing to your brain and the adrenaline running through your veins doing nothing to stop you from turning your back on the enemy. Jade stood in the pathway, eyes dark with rage. You briefly registered one of the students grabbing you again as his eyes flashed dangerously,
“Oh my.” he hummed, stepping into the clearing, slowly taking off his gloves, one finger at a time, “It seemed I’ve stumbled upon a scuffle.”
“Jade, I’m so sorry. I tried to stop them-!” you called out,  squirming in the student’s hold, “I promise I tried.”
“I know you did.” he met your gaze, the rage giving way to something soft and affectionate for a moment, “Let me take care of this, dear.”
“So these were your mushrooms!” one of them shouted, putting his fists up as he eyed Jade, “This is to get you back for what you did to our friend!”
The one holding you yelled in agreement, tightening his grip on you and you tried kicking and punching and anything to get out of his hold and go to Jade.
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you. I’d have to give you a good squeeze…and we wouldn’t want that.” he hissed, clenching his fists, “I don’t like it when people touch what’s mine.”
The first punch thrown was caught in Jade’s fist as he threw one right back. Your eyes widened at the display of strength from a man that always seemed so composed, often staying in the shadows and lurking while his twin started the fights. Watching him fight now, you were aware of the raw power he possessed, and knowing that power was being let loose to protect you made your heart seize.
The fight was over before you could even process what happened, the tight arms of the Heartslabyul student sliding away from your form as he rushed to defend his friends. You could do nothing but fall to your knees and watch as Jade’s dark eyes turned to you, the three students groaning in pain on the ground.
“I do hate getting physical. I’m sorry you had to see that.” he murmured, stooping down to your level, “Are you okay, Little Pearl?” 
“I’m sorry too.” you mumbled, falling face first into his chest as the adrenaline slowly left your system.
“Oh, sweet thing…” he hummed, petting the back of your head, “Thank you for trying to protect my mushrooms. Don’t put yourself in danger like that next time, okay?”
“I didn’t want to make you sad. I know you worked hard for them.” you said, peeking up over his shoulder at the three students, “I’m…I’m sorry it got to that.”
“It’s okay, dear. It’s not your fault at all.” he smiled, teeth sharp and dangerous, “They dared to cross me, and that is the treatment they shall receive. I can always grow more mushrooms, but I could never replace you. Please be more careful.”
You said nothing, opting to hold him tightly instead. He cooed comforting words into your ear, rubbing circles on your back.
“I’ll call Floyd over here to make sure they’re taken care of. Rest assured, they will not touch you or your plants.” he said, hands slowly leaving your skin as he stood up, “Follow me, dear. Let’s get you fixed up...and that drink I promised. It’s on the house.”

i just think its interesting that steve is who he is (popular jock fallen from grace) and eddie is who he is (nerdy noncomformist outcast), and they both took dustin henderson under their wing. they help him in two very different but very interlinked ways. eddie helps dustin stick to his true self and be proud of who is he, telling him to never change. steve helps dustin with his self-esteem and self-confidence when it comes to other people. eddie and steve are linked by dustin even if (preS4) they barely even knew or liked each other. dustin is (partly) made up by eddie and steve's influence on him and eddie and steve see this in dustin, they see each other in dustin but they dont recognise it because, to steve, eddie is still the freak and, to eddie, steve is still the king of hawkins high

I love that Tom Wachowski is canonically the fretful parent. Like start of the film Tom finds out Sonic's been sneaking out because he randomly went up to check on him? Then he sits him down to have a heart-to-heart because he's worried about Sonic getting in over his head. He calls and texts Sonic multiple times after he and Maddie leave. He's having fun playing beach volleyball and brings it back to wishing Sonic had more friends. Like I just think its neat

thinking abt bob's nightmare where he was working an office job and super depressed and how despite linda and the kids being in his life having ZERO relation to him owning the restaurant we don't see or hear about them at all in his nightmare. like obviously he'd want to run his own business and he wouldn't be happy in an office job but i think his real nightmare was not having his family who he loves SO MUCH and gets to spend all of his time with.... they make his life so much better and happier that being without them is his worst nightmare. even running the restaurant without them would be pointless. god
anyway i think bob would be happer if he had his kids and linda while working at a regular boring office job vs if he owned his own restaurant but didn't have a family who he loved more than anything

anyway my favourite thing about dead men fanfiction is the wildly different characters we all write. like. not even the ones who have been dead for years and have so little actual characterisation but even the ones who were alive in canon were probably very different one hundred, two hundred, three hundred years ago. also theyre under characterised in fiction. also we are all just having fun
#guy who barely posts about skulduggery pleasant: so ive be rereading some of my old favourite dead men fanfiction#as well as my own dead men fanfiction#and damn if we arent all writing a bunch of different fucking guys. to be fair i have gone rogue bcos like. cant be fucked w canon#dont wanna write about war#heyo what if it was pre war and everyone was still. convinced their wouldnt be one#also i love the idea of skulduggery being. just super fucking irresponsible devil may care live laugh love sorta guy pre-war#spoilt. rich parents who dont care much about him. loads of magic tutors.#i mean think about the class implications of the dead men#skulduggery. an elemental. a difficult discipline that clearly requires a level of training and scholarli-ness#his NAME is skulduggery#you come across that name if your educated. if you read a lot#this is a man who has been afforded every privilege#and like. i think a lot of sorcerers are implied to be very upper class#or like. kinda rich and fancy about it#but obviously that wouldnt be the case for everyone bcos magic isnt just genetic right like some ppl just show up with it#and like even then#dexter vex#anton shudder#like as far as im aware these are just names ppl have#and slightly uncommonly used words#disciplines which are more emotional/physical#as opposed to 'learned'#i just think its interesting#i was gonna have my dead men all meet n be friends pre war#but tbh i think them meeting and not being friends is better#i think theres a sort of tragedy in them being as close as they were because of the war#and not having that post war or pre war#its actually really fucking sad but like. evidently they didnt hang out in the interim when most of em were still alive#or at least that much#im wondering if like. they needed a couple hundred years of like. detox bcos seeing each other just pulled them back into that mindset

I watched this trailer, right? And this shot made me think of something. I have Cerebral Palsy; and this one thing that people with CP tend to do (myself included as a kid 😁) is walk on their toes, heels off the floor. (kinda like a ballerina hehe) So, I was like “I headcanon Barbie has Cerebral Palsy”

It is rather interesting relooking at this. Because the Perishing Star explicitly states several times that Dreya is its chosen one, that they are meant to merge into one to complete each other. It doesn't actually have any reason to do this because Dreya already wanted to uncover its secrets. It COULD just offer her knowledge and it'd be enough to lure her in. Yet it repeats over and over throughout the events that Dreya is it's chosen one, that from the point of both of their existences, they were always intended to merge together as one being. It's the fact that it is so unnecessary that makes it so credible as something that was intended from the beginning. There's no point. Dreya DIDN'T seek out to be something special or extraordinary, she was just willing to go to extreme lengths to discover knowledge. Not for fame or greed, but purely for the knowledge itself.
It's also the fact she responds differently to it than everyone else. Everyone starts to feel the effects of it, but Dreya is by far the most susceptible to it versus anyone else because it WANTS her specifically. The others can ignore it or its just murmuring of someone whose cared about or indistinct chatter driving someone mad. For Dreya though, it's the entity itself speaking to her. Furthermore, the Perishing Star explicitly targets Dreya when they're close to it. The Perishing Star only went absolutely beserk once Dreya was close to it. All the other Researchers we see when it goes beserk were unaffected by it. The Perishing Star didn't want them, didn't need them, didn't target them anyone. All of it was for Dreya, the other half of it that was needed as its physical vessel on this world

I understand you about Trent. I'm so hmm at people so happy and ready to cheer when a confident young black player takes an L. There's been plenty of obnoxious white players this season... crickets when they flop. Hmm.
yeah i'm glad im not the only one who sees this! i can see how he can come across as obnoxious to people (esp rival fans) but it's the way that people (i mostly see it on football twitter) pile on him in comparison to other players and almost take delight in when he has poor form, or knocking him down a peg when something he says ends up going against him. like he's literally trending on twitter rn and no other liverpool player is, and it's all just shit talking. like you said, the amount of cocky white players or white players who have had poorer form this season and i have not heard nearly as much backlash against them!
idk if this sounds silly but i actually love that trent doesn't always try to be palatable it's one of my fav things about him lol
even if u think about how marcus rashford is treated for struggling with his form, how "fans" called sancho a flop for not immediately playing amazingly for man utd after transferring, how there were ppl who actually wanted to chant "you let england down" about saka at the nld?
idk im just like. leave young black players alone they are allowed to not always get it right and their confidence is beautiful to see!
u worded this so perfectly so idk if it even needed my long ass addition but i totally agree
