MADOKA AND KYOYA ROLESWAP

Amano Madoka

Swapped with Kyoya

Bey: Rock Northern Cross

The one time she used a bey had a northern cross facebolt so

Face hunters leader

Face hunters are a sukeban gang

MEAN girl

Inherits basically all of og Kyoya’s personality traits except she’s louder and more energetic

She put big fusion wheels on her bat lol

She gets in gang territory beyfights a lot, and crushes the opponent’s beys with her baseball bat

The loser then would go to Kyoya, who is the bey mechanic in this au

He would fix it up, make bank, and then Madoka comes in later to pick up the extra shrapnel which has been formed into a fusion wheel to fit on her bat

And repeat

Instead of being on top of a tower in that one og Kyoya fight she just takes the main gang to that one storage place the facehunters meet up often

And threatens to crush the bey of whoever is swapped with Kenta

I haven’t decided who to swap Kenta with lol

Yes, those are bey pins/buttons

Like the ones Benkei had when he was first introduced in the manga :)

Tategami Kyoya

Yeah so he’s the bey mechanic now

His bey is now Mad Leone

He WILL overcharge you

And he WILL not even do a good job if he don’t fuck with you

“Oh? I missed a spot in the repair? Haha oh well. You better pay me if you want that fixed.”

Madoka will be safe from that

And also be overcharged slightly less

You will never ever catch him doing free labor

Actually insane how much beypoints and money he has from the “cycle” he and Madoka made

A bey shattered while he was half-assing the job and then uhhh ta-dah!!! Scar!!!!

I ALSO POSTED THIS ON AO3 SO IF YOU SEE THAT THAT'S ME

Winging It: Buggy The Clown X Winged! Fem! Reader Pt. 1

A/N: bless the one piece fans for getting me into the show and introducing me to this man because he is just so FJSCBKGHLKDGW, like you feel me? anywaysss, first time writing for one piece, let's do this whoooo!

(part 2 here! :] )

Word Count: 2.7k Summary: Buggy asks (Y/n) to help out with an unusual task, chaos ensues. Warnings: a dude being a creep to reader later on and a little bit of ooc on Buggy's behalf, but other than that, just some good ol' fluff!

It all started out as a perfectly normal day.

After another busy day on the Big Top and another successful "show", Buggy had given the majority of his crew the day off to do whatever they wished.

As soon as (Y/n) was able, she unfurled her feathery wings and flew up to the crows nest, needing to get away from the madness down on the deck for a while.

Closing her eyes, (Y/n) took a deep breath of the refreshing ocean air as the breeze blew softly against her face.

Having joined Buggy's crew a few months earlier, she had never expected her life to change as much as it did as fast as it did.

(Y/n) originally came from a life as the sole inhabitant of a tiny island in the middle of the East Blue. One day, the Big Top and its crew happened to be sailing by and stopped to search the island for any supplies they could find.

Fearing the worst, (Y/n) grabbed her baseball bat and and flew out of her hut to stop the pirates from getting any closer.

After fending off a few of the crew members, Buggy swiftly stepped in to try and diffuse the situation, being unusually calm and level headed as he addressed (Y/n).

Realizing her wings could be useful to him in shows and in pillaging, Buggy invited her to join him and his pirates instead of struggling to keep herself alive and entertained on her little islet.

With a hesitant but quick decision, (Y/n) agreed, asking for some time to pack some personal items before Buggy and the rest of the crew led her back to the boat, intent on celebrating a new member of the gang.

Quickly learning the ropes of pirating and climbing up the ranks of the crew, (Y/n) eventually became a high ranking member, just behind Mohji and Buggy himself.

She even managed to become friends with the quirky captain, to the the slight disbelief of the rest of their crewmates. In addition, after getting to know each other a bit more, that friendship slowly turned into a (huge) crush on (Y/n)'s part, but neither Buggy nor anyone else needed to know that part.

And even though the start of her pirating adventure was a little strange, (Y/n) could never say she missed her old life. Being apart of the Big Top Crew gave her the family and friends she was sorely missing on her island.

Reveling in the quiet of the air, (Y/n) smiled to herself as she thought of her new existence as the Big Top's resident trapeze artist, grateful that she now had the world at her fingertips, plus people to fight beside and fight for.

As she reminisced upon the past, her eyebrows perked up when she heard ropes creaking from somewhere down below.

"Hey doll! Figured I'd find you up here!" Grunted a voice from beside her.

She cracked one of her eyes open to see Buggy climbing up the rigging, the tail of his bandana flowing behind him.

"Hey, Cap! Did you need something?"

"Nah, not right now. But I might once we get to the island we're headed to. If the winds are good, we should get there in the next 2 days."

"Oh, yeah, I nearly forgot! What's so special about this island anyway? Isn't the stop just for us to stock up again before we head out to meet Alvida?" (Y/n) questioned, sitting down on the floor of the crows nest as she scootched over to make some room for Buggy.

"That's part of it, yes, but the main reason we're stopping is because a couple of our cannons were destroyed in our last fight with the Marines. There's a few weaponsmiths in a city there that are willing to sell us a few new ones if we can negotiate a good price for both of us."

"So we need them to agree to our bargain so we don't get demolished by another battle on the way to meet Alvida?"

"Exactly! You're one smart cookie.

"Hmm, I try." She shrugged with pleased grin, her wings fluffing out in sync.

"You sure do, (Y/n/n). Anyways, I came to see if you would be willing to come with me, just to make sure nothing fishy happens while I'm not paying attention. Maybe pretend to be my arm candy to trick them, y'know?"

"Me? Can't someone, like, Cabaji do it? He's got way more experience with this stuff than I do."

"He's gonna be in charge of the ship while we're gone. Plus, I mean, you're the only one who would make spending time with dumbasses like these smith guys bearable. You would save me of literally dying of boredom."

"Pfft, I doubt that" Answered (Y/n) as she rolled her eyes at the clown's exaggeration.

Buggy chuckled, smiling softly at the girl as he rested his arm atop her shoulder.

The action causes a very subtle blush to appear on her face, which she tries to keep hidden by scratching at her neck.

"So whadya say, huh? Wanna go on a little adventure with me?"

(Y/n) sighed with a sputter of her lips before turning to answer the blue haired man.

"Sure, Captain, I'll come along. It could be kinda fun."

"Aww, thanks (Y/n), you're the best! Even better than Mohji! But don't tell him that." Whispered Buggy as he jokingly cupped his hand over his mouth.

"You're ridiculous, Captain." she laughed softly, bumping her shoulder with his.

"And I take pride in that. It's all I got goin' for me, after all." Chuckled Buggy, who shrugged and leaned back in reply.

(Y/n) gave him an amused grin in reply before shifting her eyes back towards the big blue ocean that surrounded them.

The two then sat in a comfortable silence for a few minutes before the voice of another crewmate called out for Buggy from somewhere on the main deck.

"Well, sweets, duty calls. See you later, huh?" Buggy said with a salute before he made his way back down the rigging.

As he disappeared from sight, (Y/n) bashfully put her head in her hands as she tried not to overthink the nickname her captain had given her.

"Oh, damn.... what have I gotten myself into?..." (Y/n) questioned herself as she placed her head against her knees.

After a few more minutes of sitting by herself while she scanned the horizon, Buggy yelled out, calling the crew back to the deck for another show.

With a small shake of her head, (Y/n) stood up, stretched, and flew down to gather with the rest of the troupe.

Just as Buggy had said, the Big Top had reached it's island destination a couple days later. Thankfully, there wasn't many Marines in this town, meaning the crew could go into town to stretch their legs on land and get any supplies they might need for the rest of the trip.

Still on the ship, (Y/n) sat below deck as she tried to find something other than her circus costume to wear, wanting to be able to blend into the crowds better or just in case a high ranking Marine or someone from the World Government showed up and recognized her alongside Buggy.

Rummaging through her chest of clothes, her wings fluttered as she finally found a simple black tank top and a pair of jeans.

After placing the clothing on her bed and gliding over to a nearby vanity to do some basic makeup, she heard a knock at her door while she applied some light rouge to her face.

"Come in, it's open!" She announced as she grabbed another brush from the vanity drawer.

Looking behind her using the mirror, she saw a familiar orange pirate hat pop into view.

"Are you decent?" Buggy said as he entered the room, his disembodied hands floating in front of his face to cover his eyes

"Yes, Captain, you can open your eyes if you want." (Y/n) giggled as she put on some finishing touches of makeup.

Popping off one of his fingers to glance at the girl, he gasped lightly as he finally saw her face.

"Wow, you look fantastic!" Buggy said with an impressed nod.

"Really? It's not much different than my usual casual looks..." Claimed (Y/n) as she timidly placed a hand upon her cheek.

"Either way, angel, you look good. But I suppose that's beside the point. I just came to tell you to be ready to go by sundown. I'll be waiting on the dock, Don't be late." He winked before leaving the room.

With a huff as she tried to compose herself, (Y/n) stood up to get dressed and mentally prepare herself for the night.

Within just a few short hours, the sun had finally set upon the island, and right on cue, (Y/n) left her quarters and strutted over to the deck railing to see Buggy down on the pier waiting for her.

"Ah, (Y/n) there you are! I was worried for a sec, thought you were gonna chicken out on me!"

"No, I'm here. Someone has gotta keep an eye on you!"

"Well, I'm glad that someone is you. Shall we go?" Buggy motioned as (Y/n) climbed down to meet him.

"Yes, we shall, mon capitaine!" (Y/n) quipped as he held her head up high with a light giggle.

"C'mon, let's get going." Chuckled Buggy in response as the two made their way out of the marina.

After a minute or so of idle chatter about their days, (Y/n) spoke up with a question she had been meaning to ask.

"What do we do if they don't agree to give us the cannons for the price you set?"

"Well If that happens, I guess we'll just have to... wing it!" Buggy quipped as he gave the girl a sly grin.

"Oh, ha ha, very funny!" (Y/n) fake laughed as she playfully smacked Buggy's back with one of her wings.

"Thank you! I am funny!" Buggy declared as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, careful to avoid the feathers on her back.

(Y/n) bit her bottom lip in reply as she moved her gaze to the cobblestone ground beneath them.

"So where exactly is this weapons store at?"

"Not far, we come to this place every so often so I know the quickest way to get there."

(Y/n) nodded in acknowledgement as Buggy began to tell her some fun stories about his past adventures here.

About 15 minutes later, Buggy made an excited noise as he realized where they were.

"Ok, (Y/n/n), the weaponsmiths store is just up ahead, I'll lead you there." He announced, taking her hand until they found the place they needed to be.

As the door swung open, a little bell rang overhead, signaling to the two workers that someone had entered the shop.

"Gentlemen! How's it going, am I late to the party?!"

"Ah, you must be the guy that contacted us the other day! Nah, you're right on time! Did you bring cash?" Asked one of the men who (Y/n) assumed was the shop owner.

Buggy rolled his eyes as he pulled out a large stack of berry from his pocket and placed it onto a nearby counter, in front of the younger man with black hair.

"Perfect! If you follow me, I can show you the canons we currently have on stock." the older of the two men said, leading Buggy past a few rows of shelves and cabinets to another part of the store.

Just before they rounded the corner, Buggy and (Y/n) gave each other a reassuring nod.

After a brief moment of looking around at the various weapons and items scattered across the room, (Y/n)'s attention was grabbed by the sound of someone behind her clearing her throat.

She slowly whirled back around to see the younger of the two shopkeepers looking her up and down.

"Hey gorgeous, how ya doin' on this fine evening?" The man who stayed at the counter smirked, looking at (Y/n) with something dangerous flashing in his eyes

"Fine, thanks..." (Y/n) giving him a polite smile

"So, you uh, doing anything tonight?"

"Just getting those cannons, then we're headed back out."

"Aw come on, you couldn't stay for... say, one drink with me at the bar in town?"

"Um, thanks but no thanks, I've got stuff to do back on our ship." Responded the girl as she took a few steps backwards

"Are you sure? I could give you a real fun time, cutie!" Chuckled the man as he walked around the counter to stand in front of (Y/n) with his arms crossed.

"Yeah, positive. Sorry." (Y/n) finalized as she started to walk away, but was near-instantly stopped.

"Oh, come on, pretty birdy, leave that idiotic clown guy and spend the night with a real man huh?!" The man cackled as he grabbed onto (Y/n)'s wrist and pulled her into his chest.

"Ow! Let me go!" Hissed (Y/n) as she began to tug against the mans grasp, flapping her wings slightly to give her a bit more leverage.

The man laughed crudely before grabbing her other arm and trapping her against a shelf.

"Hey, maybe that stupid pirate will let me keep you! Who knows, maybe we can see all of the things those pretty little wings of yours can do!"

With a disgusted scoff, (Y/n) went to grab a small dagger she had hidden in her left pocket, but before she could even find it, a white-gloved hand shot across the store to grip the black haired man's collar.

"What exactly do you think you're doing?!" Buggy inquired, his voice menacingly low as he appeared back from the other side of the store.

"Uh, well, you see I- it's um-"

"Answer me!"

"C'mon, It was a joke! I didn't mean anything by it!" The man tried to convince the Captain as he let out a nervous laugh.

"Didn't seem very funny to me..." Buggy stated as he glared daggers at the shopkeeper.

"You're right, it wasn't, I- I apologize-" he stammered with a fearful whimper before Buggy pushed him back against the counter with a growl.

"If you ever try to touch anyone on my crew again, I'll personally make sure you lose both of your hands, got it?!"

"Okay, alright, I'm sorry! It won't happen again, sir!" The man agreed with a frightened look at the pirate.

Buggy scoffs irately, throwing the man onto the floor before picking the berry back up and stuffing it back into his pocket.

"C'mon, (Y/n), we're getting the hell outta here." Buggy spat as he gingerly grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the shop.

Confusedly sputtering as they clambered back down the road, (Y/n) stared at Buggy with wide eyes.

"Slow down a little, please!" (Y/n) said, stumbling as she tried to keep pace with Buggy.

With an apologetic and upset glance, Buggy released her hand before she hurried over to walk side by side with him.

"Buggy, what the hell was that about?!"

"Don't worry about it, we just needed to leave that shithole before I killed someone."

"That hasn't stopped you before!"

"I'll just say I'm feeling generous tonight then." Snarled Buggy, growing more and more enraged as the pair walked.

"We need to go back, we need those canons or we're screwed!"

"We can get the canons somewhere else, we need to go."

"But what was that all about?! Sure, the guy was a douche, but I could have easily just pushed him off with my wings or cut him with my dagger. Why are you being so weird about this?!"

"Because no one fucks with my girl!" Buggy shouted, spinning around to come face to face with (Y/n).

"W-wait, wait... Your girl?..." (Y/n) asked quietly, freezing as the meaning of his words sunk in.

Buggy halted his rant as he turned to fully face her, finally realizing what he had said. Running a palm through his blue locks, he dejectedly shook his head as he struggled to find the right words to say.

"Just forget about it, okay?! We have to get back to the ship..." Buggy muttered as he continued to stomp away.

As the blue haired pirate angrily marched down the street, (Y/n) stood frozen on the edge of the town, not knowing how to feel about what her beloved captain had just revealed to her.

a/n: this is extremely unedited, but I wanted to post something I've had cookin for a while. title is in progress, as well as the plot, so please take it with a grain of salt. still a huge work in progress! please let me know what you think as feedback is always appreciated!

They’re coming.

The thought excited you more than it should, but they were finally coming. It made you giddy just thinking about it.

A static sounded in your ear as Hajoon, your gangs ‘technology specialist’ as he likes to correct you, spoke. “They’re on the grounds. Get into position.”

You scoffed, knowing full well he heard through the ear piece. “Bold of you to assume I’m not already in it.” You threw the baseball that had been resting on the desk into the air, catching it once gravity decided to intervene.

A cheeky smile formed on your face as he sighed in exasperation. “You do understand that I’m literally watching you throw the baseball around while you have your boots up on the Boss’s desk, throwing said baseball.”

Looking towards where you knew the cameras were placed, you stuck your tongue out.

“Oh, very mature Y/N.”

“Suck a dick Joon.” You pressed a button on the side of your in-ear, cutting the connection to him as you stood up. Slowly, you stretched your arms above your head, flicking the bird to the man you knew was monitoring your every move.

You knew him, and knew he was rolling his eyes at the gesture, but smiling at your image on his screens affectionately.

Rolling your neck and hearing a satisfying crack, you smiled, grabbed a small rope that hung from the beams in the ceiling, and started to climb. 

You settled yourself into the comfortable darkness of the shadows in the beams in the ceiling. Tucking your braided hair back into your hood, you pull it up over your head, and adjusted your black neck gaiter over your nose, leaving only your eyes exposed. You pulled the rope up next to you, making sure none of it was hanging.

A smirk came over your face as the doors burst open. Seven men entered the room in pairs, the lone man at the back of the group just sauntering in, eyes flicking around the room in disinterest. 

“Yeosang,” one of them whispered. “Where did your contact say it was?”

Contact? Traitor. There was a rat among your crew. You filed away the information to report back to the boss.

It was hard to keep track of all of the men in the room. You thought they’d only send two. HaJoon said there would most likely be two. ‘Shit.” 

Wooyoungs head jerked as he heard your quiet curse, following the direction the noise came from. You locked eyes with him, but he didn’t notice. Your full black outfit helping to keep you hidden. His brows furrowed, and he shook his head, telling himself that he had just imagined it.

Yunhos eyes shifted around the room. Something to him felt off. The air was tense, but there was a feeling in his gut that something wasn’t right. “Something doesn’t feel right Hwa.”

A slight nod from the man was all he got in acknowledgement. He felt it too. It was too easy for them to get in. Too easy to navigate, considering how much security their recon had reported strolling the grounds. 

“Keep your guard up.” The command from their Captain came through their in-ears. “This is most likely a trap.”

You stood then, smiling when you felt the satisfying stretch of your legs. A wolfish grin came over your face as you decided to make your grand entrance.

Arms stretched out to either side of you, rope grasped tightly in your hand, you slowly let yourself teeter on the edge, before falling. The adrenaline and anticipation of the fall and thought of a potential fight makes your heart jump in excitement.

You landed on the broad shoulders of the tallest one, surprising them all as you wrapped your legs around his neck, locking them, and using the momentum of catching him off guard to fling both of you forward. Putting all of your weight into it, you sent the both of you crashing down. Once you felt the solid floor underneath you, you rolled, using the forward motion to get back on your feet and disappear back into the shadows.

“What the fuck?” Mingi cried as he rushed towards Yunhos form. He laid there, stunned. Not unconscious, but dazed, trying to process the last few seconds. Mingi kneeled next to his best friend, helping him into a sitting position.

The others had their guns out and at the ready, wildly swinging them from side to side, aiming at nothing and everything. Looking for some kind of movement. Waiting for a noise from the assailant. Anything that would give them some kind of hint of what they were up against.

They all calmed down, giving it a second before striking again. Pulling some of your throwing knives from your belt, you silently took aim at the closest figure to you. A sickening squelching sound was heard as you hit your mark, the blade sinking into his arm.

Wooyoung yelped as he felt the stinging pain of the knife in his bicep. He panicked, firing his pistol in the general direction that it had come from. Yells and a cry for him to stop as the rest of them ducked down, trying to avoid the friendly fire. “What’s happening?” Hongjoong radioed in. He heard the commotion, but felt detached that he couldn’t see and assess the situation. 

“They have a Ninja!” Wooyoung screeched as San pulled the small knife from his arm, tightening the band that he had around his arm as a makeshift tourniquet.

“An assassin.” Seonghwa shot Wooyoung a look. “They knew we were coming.”

“Get the files and get out.” five pairs of eyes looked at Yeosang, who nodded in return and slipped away.

Choosing to ignore him for now, you eyed the situation in front of you, assessing who to target next. What you should use on him. Your dagger? The whip you keep on your side? A wide smile spread across your face as an idea struck you.

You let yourself make noise. Boots pounding on the hardwood floor as you slowly emerged from the shadows, cocking your head to the side, and held both your arms up in a surrender. Smirking under your mask, you spoke. “Didn’t anyone tell you it’s not fair to bring a gun to a knife fight?” The sounds of bullets being chambered caused you no concern. You enjoyed this game.

“Who are you?” A venomous look in the eyes of Jongho. His hands were free of weapons, but you knew how deadly his fists were. Unlike them, you had done your research.

“Aww Baby Bear. You don’t recognize me?” you pouted at him. “I’m hurt. I remember you.” 

“Y…Y/N?” Yunho addressed you, one arm slung around Mingi’s shoulder as he fully lifted him off the ground. 

“It’s Mist. But close enough.” You shrugged.

Tension hung in the air as they processed. Mist. The assassin known all over the underground, ruthless, deadly. San glanced down at the throwing knife he pulled out of Wooyoung, seeing your cursive M on the handle. The calling card you left at every kill.

Seonghwas eyes scanned you up and down. He was the only one whose expression never changed once they realized it was you. His eyes were cold, and calculated. “You’re not my Y/N.”

HaJoon then decided to interrupt. “Girl, what the hell are you doing?”

Rolling your eyes you let out an exasperated sigh. “Joon, I'm having fun.” you whined out at him.

“Boss is gonna kill you if you keep going. Take them out and grab the files. Order from the Boss.” a disconnecting sound came and you rolled your eyes again.

“Well.” You sounded disappointed. “I’d hate to ruin such a pretty face.” you shrugged. “All well.” Your fingers quickly tapped a button you had rigged on your palms, and more of your throwing knives shot into the air. Catching them, you didn’t hesitate to immediately throw them at Seonghwa.

He dodged, pulling his pistol from its holster and aimed towards you. He lost sight as you jumped back into the shadows.

“Get out of there.” Hongjoong command. His self control strung tight as he heard your voice. It had snapped when you confirmed it was, in fact, you. His frustration came out in a growl, and he pulled his only way to communicate with the others out of his ear, smashing it. Anger for what you had become. Sadness that he couldn’t stop it. Emotions squeezed his heart as he swept all of the plans, his desk lamp, and a replica of his favorite ship, onto the floor, shattering on impact. Another frustrated noise left him as he sat in his pile of destruction.

“Captain?” Mingi had kept repeating.

“You heard him. We have to go.” Seonghwa quickly started taking steps back, eyes and gun never leaving the spot where you disappeared. A flash of silver came for him out of his peripheral, and he moved, but not soon enough. The sharpened edge caught his cheek, leaving a shallow cut. 

“Hwa, without the files?” Wooyoung darted to take a step towards the darkness. A rope shot out from the darkness, lassoing itself around Wooyoungs neck, pulling him into you.

“Hey there gorgeous,” you kissed his cheek as you tightened the rope around his neck. “No hard feelings.” 

His fingered clawed at your hands, trying to make you loosen your grip on it, as something slammed into you, throwing you to the floor.

“Ah. Yeosang. I was wondering when you were gonna show up. My sweet little Doberman to the rescue.” You stood up, dusted yourself off, and motioned for Yeosang to come at you. He stood there, just staring at you.

“Are you gonna make the first move? Or are you too much of a pussy?” You batted your lashes at him. “Sweet baby Yeosang. Who couldn’t hurt a fly. Just like I re- oof!” the wind was knocked out of you as he rushed you, his shoulder making contact with your chest and knocking you flat on your back.

You laughed. Even though he didn’t say anything, you knew you got under his skin. You coughed, groaning as you caught your breath, but still, you couldn’t help but rile him up even more. You tutted your tongue towards him and rolled to your side, spitting out a bit of blood. “I see I hit a nerve there.”

He scoffed at you, and looked over his shoulder quickly, making sure the others were getting out. He saw them all quickly rushing out, Wooyoung being supported by San as he sputtered and coughed. Angry red marks were seen all around his neck, thanks to you and your rope. Yeosangs vision turned red as he saw the marks, and saw how you just laughed and taunted him.

He stalked towards you, hand coming down to grasp your throat, grip tight. He picked you up and slammed you into the wall. You winced a bit as the back of your head made contact with the wall.

“Oh kinky. It’s always the quiet ones that are the freaks.” Gasping for breath and dizzy from the impact of your head, you still were able to get a quip out, which made the hand around your throat tighten, and his other hand made its way to your hair, pushing your head roughly back into the wall.

He looked down at you, as you started at him, slightly dazed from both hits to your head. He smirked. “Not so big and strong now, are you Y/N-nnie?” His grip tightened even more. “Can’t hide in the shadows anymore.”

He felt your hands weaken its grasp on his own, before falling limp at your side. Your body slumped as you slipped into unconsciousness.

The hold on your throat was released, your unconscious body falling unceremoniously to the floor. Yeosang turned his back on you, bag slung over his shoulder. He didn’t look back.

“Did you kill her?” Yunho questioned; his only acknowledgement of Yeosang regrouping with them. A small shake of his head, and a sigh of relief came from him and a few others.

“Did you get them?”

Yeosang unzipped his bag, showcasing its contents to the others. In it, they saw a pile of papers, folders, and even a miniature of an old pirate ship. Hongjoong will be happy.

A heated discussion broke out between San and Wooyoung, drawing the attention of the others. “We have to go back,” San finally announced.

“We can’t.” the monotone Seonghwas voice 

“Y/N is there!”

“Y/N picked her side. There’s nothing we can do about it. We got what we were after.” The door slammed as the car took off, taking them away from you and back to their Captain.

Evilive gang rivalry AU

I really wished I can write but I can’t be good at everything now can I? All I can offer are short bulletpoint ideas I’m sorry 😔

Premise: What’ll happen if DYDS never broke up after getting rid of Moon Sangguk? Well, a decade later Doyoung became a business tycoon and Dongsoo became the new Minister of Justice of course. Eventually they managed to shed away their criminal lives behind, but not without a few painful sacrifices of course. Upon finding out what Dongsoo has done to achieve his goals, his family completely disappeared from his life and it took Doyoung 2 years waiting patiently for Dongsoo to get over the loss and reciprocate his feelings.

Life is very good for Seo Doyoung. He’s been running the Shinnam Ferry and Marine Casino well, his wealth in abundance, got his trophy husband of his dreams, even opened a baseball club for the youth…… yet everything feels so stagnant. Achieving his goals has given Doyoung midlife crisis. During dinner, they reminisced their past and how far they’ve become. Doyoung sorta missed the thrill and violence…

He decided to rebuild his criminal empire in secret, concealing his true identity as the boss to protect his current reputation, as well as to not worry Dongsoo and risk losing him. A decade hiatus is long enough for a new predator to rule over the underbelly of Shinnam. Feeling extremely competitive, Doyoung is determined to create havoc and overthrow his rival.

Doyoung’s new gang quickly gains notoriety and a violent turf war and sabotaging soon began. Doyoung learns that his rival’s modus operandi is very structured and their boss’ identity is also closely guarded, but after much spying and digging, he found out that most of the members used to be the now disbanded Family gang and Bae Jongha is their leader.

Doyoung and a few of his trusted men cornered Bae Jongha. Surprised by this unfavourable yet funny turn of events, Bae Jongha resentfully revealed that he’s just a puppet and refused to reveal his boss’ true identity to Doyoung out of spite. Feeling extremely irritated that he couldn’t get an answer from Bae Jongha, he rid him off.

It’s later revealed that…. /dramatic drumrolls/…. HAN DONGSOO IS THE TRUE BOSS OF THE RIVAL GANG!!! (I want it to be dramatic ok like Doyoung trying to vent under the pretence that he’s concerned about the rising turf wars in the news, and then Dongsoo tried to assure Doyoung that he’ll do something about it. Then after that he got a phone call informing him that they found Bae Jongha dead in a ditch!!)

At this point, the audience are left questioning whether Dongsoo knew that Doyoung is his rival and if he has any ulterior motives/grudges. However it is later revealed that he truly doesn’t know that his husband is his opp.

Bae Jongha’s death became a catalyst for both gangs to start hunting for the bosses’ true identities. Lotsa spy cams and trackers going on. At some point Doyoung got the scare of his life thinking his rival found his identity and tried to infiltrate his house and harm Dongsoo. He warned Dongsoo of the intruders, but Dongsoo managed to bluff his way out (apparently he’s not supposed to be home at the time), thinking that his rival gang ALSO found out about his true identity. (TLDR: they both thought their identities are uncovered while still unaware that they’re each other’s opps. Bae Jongha cry laughing in his grave at this comedy)

At some point however, Doyoung slowly realised that Dongsoo is the boss based on a tiny slip up/minor injury(?). Doyoung unravels his complicated feelings during their sexy time (with Dongsoo being dominant and choking him 👹👹) A part of him is thrilled of this diabolical and corrupted side of Dongsoo, a side of him that he sorely missed a decade ago. Yet a part of him is also extremely sick with paranoia, unsure of who is this man before him and wondered if this is Dongsoo’s plan to get rid of him after all.

Doyoung decided to hold an emergency meeting with his gang to plan their next move, only to receive a surprise ambush from Dongsoo’s gang. A lot of bloodshed happened, Doyoung solo fights a bunch of guys. Dongsoo is shocked to see his husband is his enemy, but Doyoung is too enraged by the entire situation to think properly.

They had an emotional one on one knife + fist fight and somehow managed to clear up their misunderstandings. They shed some tears, they makeout, maaaayyybbee being freaky while covered in blood idk, it’s gross and unhinged but beautifully poetic in a blood pact way. Now that the couple has come clean with each other of their wants and worries, their love is renewed with fiery passion. And maybe soon they’ll rebuild their criminal empire once more, together this time.

THE END

Yeah this is all I have…. If you wanna adopt it, go ahead like I can’t write proper sentences beautifully for shit. Just lemme know so I can read it 😭😭🙏

Anyways some things to elaborate on character motivations and why they choose to conceal their actions from their partners:

HDS: Dongsoo have always wanted to rule the criminal empire ever since they got rid of Moon Sangguk. However, upon spending some time listening to Doyoung’s experiences and understanding why he wanted to leave the criminal life behind him, as well as feeling grateful of Doyoung’s support during his difficult time accepting that his family had left him and paving a way for his current career, he decided to lead a double life to protect their peace and reputation.

SDY: Doyoung realises that achieving his goals is never going to fill the void and hunger in his heart. Doyoung missed the good old days, but he doesn’t want to bring anymore pain to Dongsoo’s life, not after seeing how broken he was after losing his family. The last thing Doyoung wanted is to lose him too. But Seo Doyoung is a selfish man, he will get the best of both worlds no matter what.

#a future where they can be as diabolical as they wanted without all the betrayals unnecessary deaths and heartache #their rivalry is everyone’s problem #sorry bae Jongha always caught between the couple’s BS #also love the idea of them having like mid life crisis #ion like these white picket fences and luxury I want CHAOS #evilive #biography of a villain #악인전기 #도영동수 #dyds #au prompt #seo do young #han dong soo #fifi’s prompts #shhhsoftnwet

Part of The Band - Chapter 21: Copy

ive been a terrible slacker with uploading potb chapters here lol. instead of going back and uploading every chapter that i've missed here (a LOT of them) im just gonna keep going from where we're at. i suggest reading on AO3 to get the full experience!

The gang takes a promotional day for the band. Mitzi draws a flyer design. The gang meets a new face.

Read it on AO3!

---

Dook sits on the couch of the band room next to Mitzi, who's been drawing a flyer idea for a while now. They're taking a "promotional" day today at practice. Everyone older than Mitzi has been tasked with piles of newspapers, scouring the wanted ads for anyone in need of a band. Billy Bob had suggested they start with lower stakes– even the best bands have to start playing in someone's garage.

"Man, maybe we've got this all wrong," Beach Bear says. "I've seen more ads for clowns for kids' birthday parties than I have for anyone who actually needs a band." He scoffs, adjusting his position in the chair to be even more lopsided than before.

"What, you wanna get into kid's entertainment?" Fatz raises an eyebrow at him.

"No," Beach Bear smirks, "I think we should all become clowns."

Looney Bird laughs. "You'd be a terrible clown, Beach Bear," he chimes in.

"Yeah, you would know, wouldn't ya?" Beach Bear tells him. "You already look like a clown."

"Dook has the nose already," Mitzi adds.

Dook gasps, a hand moving to cover his nose. "It's not that big," he insists. "And it ain't red!"

"Keep blushing like that and it will be soon," Beach Bear teases. Dook doesn't respond, but does in fact grow redder upon hearing it.

"Look," Mitzi says, putting down the colored pencil she was using. She proudly lifts up the paper to show everyone her design. It's a flyer advertising the Rock-afire Explosion– the background is a bright explosion pattern, with the text in vibrant purple and red letters.

"Woah," Dook murmurs.

"Nice job, Mitzi!" Beach Bear exclaims, taking the flyer from her to look at it closer. "We can totally put these up around town."

"We've gotta make copies, then," Billy Bob says.

"Sounds like a trip to the store," Fatz replies.

"Oh! I wanna ride in the front!" Mitzi stands excitedly, already making her way to the door.

·–—–·

The office supply store is not that large, and never very crowded. The store is lined with racks of paper, stationary, scissors, and so on. Near the back wall, a single employee sits bored by the register. Sitting in the center of the store, the coveted copier machine– by their luck, the one thing in the store already occupied.

The group mostly files in behind the cat at the machine, doing their best not to crowd him. Looney Bird and Mitzi wander off to check out the other fixtures of the store. The employee at the register has a radio set up, the sound of the Bee Gees quietly pouring out into the rest of the store. Besides that and the sound of the copy machine, it's dead quiet in the store.

Dook stares at the promotional posters on the wall. This store has a mascot, a tiger holding a cardboard box, promoting that you can send mail from the store. Dook looks back over to the cashier, a small orange cat. Kind of a difference. He looks back at the cat using the copier machine. He's lanky, taller than Dook by a bit but definitely shorter than Beach Bear. He's mostly black, with white fur accenting his ears and hands. He's wearing a T-shirt and jeans, a baseball cap sat backward on his head. The cap has a word embroidered on it: "Swingers."

Dook cocks his head, trying to get a better look at what he's making so many copies of. It's brightly colored, but he can't make out the text. Without thinking, he takes a step forward, trying to get a better look. The cat's ear twitches, and he glances over his shoulder to address the group.

"Oh–! Sorry, I didn't realize how long this'd take." He glances back at the machine. "I shouldn't be too much longer."

"What're you making?" Dook asks.

"Oh, just some flyers for work," the cat replies. He pulls one from the machine and hands it to Dook.

"Showbiz Pizza Place?" Beach Bear reads from over his shoulder. "Never heard of it."

"That's because it's new," the cat says. "Not opened yet. My boss is in the restaurant business, and he's trying to start a franchise sort of situation."

"Interesting boss," Dook murmurs, still staring at the flyer.

"What are you guys making?" The cat continues. "If you don't mind."

"Flyers, too," Beach Bear says, nudging Fatz. Fatz hands the cat Mitzi's flyer.

He looks it over. "You're a band?"

"It's not clear from the flyer?" Billy Bob asks.

"It's just hard to tell past..." He taps the drawing of an explosion on the page. "Are you any good?"

"It's not clear from the flyer?" Beach Bear says, gesturing toward the same explosion.

The cat laughs. "We're looking for a band to perform at Showbiz," he explains. "You should sign up. Keep the flyer."

The copier finally finishes, and the cat picks up the stack of papers it's produced. "I've gotta run," he says, already moving for the door, "but keep us in mind! You could be just what the boss is looking for!"

The front door swings shut, and he's gone.

Dook looks down at the flyer once more, an address listed at the bottom. "Maybe we will."

cant stop thinking about the woody/brady high school au, do you have any more hcs for that? or maybe some with holly, bucky and the rest of the gang included?

You sent this two weeks ago, and I want to apologize for the wait! I promise I wasn’t ignoring you, I got kind of sidetracked😅 High school teachers AU my beloved🖤 Previous HCs for this AU are here!

More headcanons below the cut!

RIP to the like 3 students who have both a music class and a shop class because they’re getting a double dose of “teachers who are so obviously into each other it’s almost painful”

Woody goes to every school concert and musical, even though she doesn’t have to, but Brady’s obviously directing the band (the theater kids can sometimes get on his nerves. The band kids are basically his children though). She and John are almost always the last ones hanging around the auditorium by the end of the night after the performances are over. The two of them, alone in a dimly lit auditorium…anything can happen🤭

Since Holly knows pretty much everyone’s business, Bucky also knows pretty much everyone’s business. Constantly leaning into each other and whispering and snickering in the teacher’s lounge (they’re so annoying about it, god bless)

As the baseball coach and Phys. Ed. teacher, Bucky expects a lot from the guys on the baseball team. Everyone else can walk the mile if they want, he doesn’t care. Most likely to curse around students, like an exasperated “oh shit” every once in a while that endears him to them. Big proponent of the class pizza party

Buck teaches Physics and students of all genders are pulling some Indiana Jones “love you” on the eyelids type of shit even though he mentions Marge regularly because he loves her! She also sends him in with different baked goods for the AP students every week or so (there’s always one or two missing by the time he gets to class because Bucky stole some in the teacher’s lounge)

Much to say about guidance counselor Rosie. Absolutely loves chaperoning the school dances and always ends up showing off his moves that become increasingly outdated with each passing year, but damn if those kids aren’t cheering him on like it’s American Bandstand. He’s mentioned in pretty much every valedictorian speech. Former students still send him cards around the holidays. He’s been invited to a few weddings. Definitely gets the most gifts at the end of the school year

Back to Woody and Brady! They carpool to work. At first it’s just an excuse to spend more time together but then she’s staying over at his place all the time so…

Some of their students start to hatch a plan to get them together but then they see them walking into the building holding hands one day and they’re like “Nevermind.” Kinda annoyed they stole their thunder

There’s definitely a “So do we call you Mrs. Brady now?” discussion in Woody’s shop class after she marries John and her last name is no longer Woodward. She’s like “Uh, just say Mrs. Woody instead of Miss Woody.” (She’s never been Miss Woodward to her students, it’s too formal to her)

#ask tag #ch: woody #insp: the glorious results of a misspent youth

Confecti OCs!!

Yes, yes, yes! I've mentioned before that I have Confecti OCs and here they finally are!!

I'll be doing them in the order you get the respective confectis they're based off of in game

This little ankle biter is Marsh. He's a tiny cutesy fella who never grew up because he literally can't (being based off of those dry marshmallows you would find in Swiss Miss packets). He wears a bunch of soft and heavy clothing to make himself look softer and fluffier than he actually is. Being the youngest of his gang, his personality can be something of a wildcard being a mischievous prankster with a penchant for sugar and getting many sugar rushes resulting in the breaking of a couple of people's windows. Much of his origin is unknown, but what is known about him is that due to the way his body is, he never grew up (both physically and mentally) and is also something of an immortal squeaky toy. You can throw him, squeeze him, and explode him all you want, he will always come back like nothing ever happened to him. Because of his wild and childish tendencies, he particularly gets on some people's nerves and only those willing to put up with his antics consider him a friend.

Oh boy, where to begin with Choco? First off, I find it funny that the first two members of this group of OCs are so polar opposite of eachother that it comes off jarringly comical. Going from the cutesy-est one to the edgiest one.

Anyways, as for Choco himself, he's a bit complicated. Having something of a rough past with a mom that doesn't want to accept him as a son, a close father who died due to unfortunate circumstances, and having an abusive friend within a gang of criminals. Cliché edgy boy backstory, I know. Because of his rough childhood, he doesn't come off as the friendliest person, more often than not giving backhanded remarks to those he doesn't tolerate at most. He doesn't get along well with Marsh, he talks back at Gumball when she asks him to do favors like not breaking his arm so many times a week, really the only people he's remotely friendly to are Simon, his dad, and his crush Auge (who he's down horrendous for). He's also much more quiet and reserved in contrast to Marsh's more loud and out there enthusiasm, usually playing fighting games on his console or writing out his deepest feelings in his personal journal. His main weapon in combat is a baseball bat with nails hammered into it but later resorts to just using his fists thanks to his growing bond with Auge.

Next is S'mon (or Simon, it's pronounced the same either way lol) who's a s'more based confecti based off the s'moreknights seen in game. He's got a thick layer of hot tamale skin within him and a bloodsauce chamber which allows him to breathe fire despite the circumstances of being a marshmallow. He is one of the largest characters of his friend group (That wasn't always the case, at some point he was just as tiny as Marsh) which was caused by high amounts of stress he experienced during his time in the military which awakened his bloodsauce chamber (based off the way marshmallows puff up in microwaves). Despite his imposing size he's actually a big softie and is generally very docile to others, also being a big nerd for stuff like DnD and medieval games. Despite these positive traits, he's also easy to stress out due to having bad anxiety and a bit of self consciousness which he also got from his time in military. Go easy on him, he's doing he's best. (Fun fact: Both him and Choco are tied as my favorite OCs of this group and he was designed by my beloved @conflictedbeing <333 )

And then there's Gummy. The largest confecti member of this group and longtime close friend of Gumball’s. She normally communicates in more animalistic speech with barks, whimpers and growls but on occasion can start speaking in a comically deep voice when she feels like it. She’s very lazy by nature and spends much of her time loafing around and eating to her heart’s content but every now and then goes out with Gumball for walks. Despite her carefree personality, her stomach is filled with a powerful acid that can digest almost anything (including bones.)

Lastly, here's Gumball. A robot confecti and the oldest member of her crew, Gumball was created by an old, friendly engineer who gave her collective gumball confectis a home in the form of a humanoid gumball machine. Eversince his passing, she has been keeping his workshop afloat alongside her childhood friend Gummy in his honor. This home would later evolve into my confecti OCs main home, so you have Gumball to thank for that. As a robot, she possesses high intelligence and knowledge on many different subjects thanks to each gumball inside of her head acting as a neuron of AI knowledge. If she were to lose any of her gum neurons, her memory of the subject that gum piece specializes in will become fuzzy. Outside of being a smart AI, she's the main housekeeper of her friend group and tries to keep all conflict as minimal as possible. She also has a deep fascination for the biology of different toppins and confectis and how they function within the world's ecosystem.

And that's all of them, if you have any questions about any of them, feel free to ask (preferably these questions should be sfw, nothing too explicit.)

And once again, huge thanks to @conflictedbeing for Simon's design

The Rookie 5x11 Thoughts

Spoilers for The Rookie 5x11 below. If you've watched the episode or don't care about spoilers, please enjoy!

The cold open with Nolan and Celina responding to an online/ metaverse robbery was pretty funny. I mean honestly what would they even really be able to do. Like the stuff that was stolen in the metaverse probably did cost real money for the woman, but since its all online how would they even try to recover it? Get a programmer to get the stuff back.

Also when Nolan put the VR headset on and was just falling had me cracking up.

Y'all, we are actually in Chenford secret dating era and I am loving it already. Tim is so head over heels for Lucy that he can't even make up a fake story for what he was doing last night other than hanging out with Lucy. The whole first scene with them in break room was just so cute. And Nolan being completely oblivious. Honestly, out of everyone in the Mid-Wilshire crew Nolan is probably the only one who genuinely has no clue about Time and Lucy. Also Tim and Lucy making plans for 'nothing' later on was great.

Everything that happened before the first commercial break just had me smiling so much.

Aaron basically volunteering Tim to coach the little league team when the third coach quits. Him trying to backtrack but the suggestion but its already too late Genny and Tyler both love the idea of Uncle Tim coaching the little league team. Seeing Tim just be so soft with the team and trying to make sure they're having fun was so cute. And then hearing Genny explain why just made my heart break a little for Tim.

Tim and Lucy co- coaching the little league was adorable. Lucy helping Tim give the kids some structure and being so competitive when it came to the actual game. It was funny to see them sort of switch places when it came to coaching because we've seen Tim yelling and jumping up and down while watching a football game but from what we know about Lucy she's not really into football. It seems like she has a bit of a deeper connection with baseball or maybe its because she has a deeper involvement with coaching that we got to see her being more open and competitive about it.

Alright, now to more of the actual plot points of the episode. We get our introduction to the case by now other than Angela's older (and probably best looking) brother Damien. I was so happy to see Damien again. Really any time we get to see more of the team's families I always get excited. I really didn't think we'd see Angela's brothers again after the one episode they were all in.

Damien's reported missing person leads to the discovery of multiple bodies behind a fake wall and the potential start of gang war breaking along with everyone debating whether or not true evil exists.

I really enjoyed hearing the everyone's perspective on the debate and you could tell how their individual experiences and beliefs have informed them of their answers to the question.

When it was revealed that Elijah Stone was the one behind the murders and the setup I wasn't surprised. I figured The Rookie would end up circling back around to Elijah eventually since he was released from jail and forced Wesley to apologize on live TV. Come on the writers couldn't just let the bad guy win. Our protagonists have to get the chance to put Elijah behind bars.

I'm personally pretty excited to see how this storyline with Elijah ends. My one hope is that they don't kill Elijah like they did with Rosalind and La Fiera. There is more than one way to beat the antagonist that doesn't involve killing them.

Lucy got her own case. I really enjoyed seeing her teach the Citizens Academy students. Yo, that one person who was stupid enough to go into a police station with an outstanding warrant was really bold. I was cracking up as she was arrested.

I liked seeing Lucy's empathy shine through as she tried to help the DA victim. She continually reached out to the victim and even tried to get the her to come to the stark reality of her situation. In my opinion I think that this DA storyline was handled better than Bailey's.

Seeing Lucy absolutely wreck that guy was awesome to see. I don't think I'll ever get tired of seeing Lucy engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

Bonus: Bailey and Nolan being to kind to be able to be landlords is too funny. I can't believe that Bailey really let the elderly folks go 6 months without paying rent. And then to find out that the elderly couple were renting it out for *that* was crazy.

______________________________________________________________

Hope you enjoyed. If you want come chat with me in the comments about anything The Rookie related.

Until next time have a good day or night.

Was re-reading HoC for like the 5th time and now I'm wondering - what do the gang get up to for the 4th of July/Steve's birthday? If you answered already, sorry, I must've missed that outtake/tumblr ask!

other than the first 4th of July (as outlined in the second half of Chapter 11 of Hands of Clay, where Steve has to work to cover for an upcoming event and Bucky handles the kids and preps a full Grilling & Cake Experience for Steve etc etc.), they try to do something as a family out and about during the day (the 4th of July stuff), then have dinner at home (Steve's birthday stuff) and then to the roof of the brownstone to watch the fireworks.

Two things of note: Bucky will always, always, get the most annoyingly patriotically decorated cake for Steve's birthday. So much red and blue frosting. So very freedom. So half-price due to the holiday (Steve is resigned at this point to the sarcasm of it all - besides, he sees the care and attention Bucky puts into the rest of the meal, all the salads he likes to eat and the hot dogs and burgers from the kosher grocery that Steve favours and the bottle of artisanal root beer that Steve loves and is only sold in like three stores up in Yonkers that he still has no idea how Bucky found, and he doesn't make a fuss over the fuss Bucky's making but he carries it with him, happy and warm)

Another thing that becomes a bit of a habit with the gang is that no matter what Bucky gets Steve for his birthday, it turns into an outing with Clint while Natasha maneuvers to spend time with Maria (and later, Skye, as her father's business partners). Trip to the zoo? Natasha is suddenly allergic to the llamas, even though they were all at the zoo not two weeks before. Baseball? basketball? neighbourhood cricket? Natasha can't bear the thought of sports, please. Indoor rock climbing? Ew, daddy, no, i'll ruin my nails.

(At this point Bucky turns to Steve and says what is she talkin about? what nails? she's six! and Steve says I'll ask. he crouches down to talk to Natasha, who is right there, and says, what's up?

Natasha huffs as only a young lady of six years and four months can, and says, Clint wants to have fun with you and I want to have fun with Maria, please.

Arg, Bucky says. Fine, Bucky says. As long as Maria is okay with it.

Maria is fine with it, because she enjoys Natasha's company and also wheedling an extra day of PTO out of Bucky on principle.)

(And lest you think this is some gender roles thing, when the twins come along, Pietro toddles along with the ladies to enjoy a divine pampering experience, while Wanda (who, in case you haven't read the outtakes, is a hockey kid from the first day they put her in a pair of skates) is in the front row, ready for action. This makes the year that Bucky gets Steve Wrestlemania floor tickets extra exciting)

I am wandering from the point of your ask but yes, they do fall into a thematic flow around Steve's birthday, and it's all good :)

thanks for reading Hands of Clay so many times!

Soooooooo since I was only around in the movie for like 30 minutes or so, I missed loads of like actual important information that would’ve been nice to know beforehand.

The short answer rant is this: What. A. Shit show.

Like…like hell, I don’t even know where to start with all of this. It gave me a headache.

Brace yourselves, gang, I’m not holding back.

First of all, apparently sitting down and having an actual conversation about the Accords was a little too much to do for them? Like they started to but nothing came out of it. A stand still. I would think something that big would make them sort through it all until they came to some kind of collective agreement, but I guess not? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Secondly, both sides made mistakes. Big time. Both thought they were doing right, and I definitely get that, but both sides could’ve done better at what they were doing. I guess retrospect’s 20/20 but yeah.

Also, I really can’t stand Ross. Not the clean shaven Ross but the one with the mustache and the high and mighty, sourpuss attitude. Like what a creep.

The real bad guys here? The government.

How the hell did the Avengers just learn about the Accords 3 days before they’re supposed to be ratified? Shouldn’t that have been like breaking news from the moment somebody breathed about it?

And Ross being like “you’ll retire” if the Avengers decide to go against the Accords? As if he could actually do anything about it. I mean, who the hell does this guy think he is? Thanos?

Also what is it with baseball caps and sunglasses as disguises? I know I pulled the same stunt but it wasn’t my idea. I said no and got outvoted.

And look, I think Wanda’s great, but she wasn’t a kid at the time this all went down. I appreciate Cap wanting to protect her since she was like the newbie, but she messed up. That was really bad. I don’t know what she could’ve done to fix it, but maybe at the very least the Avengers could have issued a public apology.

I think Steve has serious Bucky issues and I genuinely don’t understand.

And Vision saying the whole world started having more enhanced since/because Tony said he’s Iron Man is bullshit. Last I checked, and Ant Mun backed me up here, all the big bads that have shown up in our world happened because of things NOT related to Tony! What, just because they called the move Captain America Civil War, they’re gonna make Tony the bad guy or something? Bullshit.

ALSO! When T’Challa was fighting Bucky and the UN chopper just started shooting at them both, thank goodness T’Challa was wearing Vibranium or that would have caused a plethora of other problems. Funny how the Avengers get fingers pointed at them over collateral damage for the sake of the mission when that chopper was literally doing THE SAME THING.

WHY DIDNT STEVE JUST EXPLAIN TO TONY TEN MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE THAT BUCKY WASNT BUCKY AND HAD NO CONTROL WHEN THE WINTER SOLDIER SHIT HAPPENED?!

Oh don’t worry. I’m getting to Siberia, hold your horses.

I’m not really sure on the timeframe here, but I’m think the Accords weren’t actually ratified yet when the whole airport fight happened soooooooo I don’t think Creepy Ross had any real power yet to tell Tony what to do.

I’m not going to touch on the lady who lost her son because I can’t even fathom that kind of grief. And I don’t want to. Ever. And I know grief makes you do things so I don’t know. My heart just hurts for her. I hate Tony got the brunt of that but still.

Speaking of grief making you do things? Zemo. I know who he is now, and I really can’t stand the guy. I hate he lost loved ones, and I hurt for him in that department. But when he decided to go all batshit psycho over it, some sympathy’s lost. Like he went through some hella trouble to make the Avengers unravel.

Siberia…*sigh* Siberia was really hard to watch. Like it was painful. It was…frightening. I almost wish I didn’t watch it. I had an idea what was going to happen because of what Tony shared but to see it for myself…

*sigh* This whole movie is a testament to honesty, trust, and open communication. Or rather what could happen with a lack there of. Ya know, me hearing about the Avengers before I joined them and seeing them on tv for interviews and stuff, I thought they were tight. An actual, close knit team. Maybe a found-family. But sooooooo much could’ve been avoided if they had just acted like that.

If they’d just sat down and talked it over. They could have an arguing match over it all if necessary, hell friends and families do that. If they had really trusted each other and let each other in on things instead of keeping each other out and building up secrets and agendas. Too many bosses and not enough coworkers.

It hurt, Iron Mun. It hurt to watch. Those are my friends and…there were times it felt like I didn’t even recognize them.

And then watching me show up felt so surreal. They got that whole interaction with the rest of “Team Cap” down to a T. I remember being so excited to be called up by one of the OG Avengers, one of my heroes, feeling honored and ready to do more and help people and do what’s right. Make a bigger difference than I already was. But God, I had no idea. I had no fricking clue.

In the end, Civil War was just like any other war. A mess. Both sides made mistakes, everything could’ve been done better, and nobody came out unscathed. In fact, everything ended up worse because of it.

Could we get more mafia Aespa please?

Poly!Mafia!Aespa x Mafia!Reader

Aespa headcanon - Mafia!Au- Mafia!Aespa kidnapping the Reader

Requests are open

Hi @alexxis10, thank you for your request. I was thinking about how I can realize your request and I decided that I will get to Poly! Mafia!Aespa step by step. I will make a series of headcanon over time that will reach that point in the storyline. So thank you again for you request, you gave me great inspiration. I hope the results satisfy you too.

Previous part: Here

Mafia!Giselle X Citizien!Reader

Mafia!Aespa X Citizien!Reader

Karina's Pov

So, where we left off? Ah, sure, Giselle understood that she was in love with you. And if this destabilized her because she had never felt anything like it, on the other hand she was feeling happy because this emotion gave her a better mood.

Contrariwise Karina was not happy at all because not only a member of her gang failed her mission, but the citiziens of Seoul were finding hope and courage in your figure.

Another leader in her situation would lose his mind, but not Karina. She was smart and always calm, so it was easy for her finding the perfect solution to this situation.

Was Giselle in love with you? Fine, she could have you, and for two reason. One: as leader the happiness of her members were important. And two: this would be the right method to make lose hope to Seoul city. Yes, because the brave Y/n would be now on the Aespa side.

When she told the plan to the members, Giselle was over the moon and the other two agreed easily. So the next day they would act.

Reader's Pov

It was Friday night. You were returning home after a long and tiring day of work. After hanging the jacket on the hanger, you realized that the TV in the living was on. That was strage.

Probably this morning you were in hurry and you forgot to turn it off. So you didn't bother to do it in that moment because after you changed your clothes in something more comfy, you'd be watching TV.

So you went straight to your bedroom, but when you opened the door, you found Karina waiting for you. "Welcome back, Y/N. You have a very beautiful house. Congratulation!".

You were stunned. Meeting them on the street was one thing, but in your house was another type of danger. So you sprinted to your living room, where you keep hidden a baseball bat.

But there, this time, Giselle was waiting for you. "Hello Love, how was your day? I missed you so much". Hell nah. You were sick of this.

You gave to defend yourself and decided to just escape. However in front of the entrance door, Ning was filing her niles.

She was the maknae and she seemed distracted, so maybe if you knocked her out... You couldn't even finish your thought that she put her hand on the butt of the gun.

"You picking on the little ones now, Y/N?". Of course, Aespa gang didn't have a weak link. However all of this were too well organized to be an improvisation. They must have been studied you.

Nevertheless they couldn't foresee the unforseeable. You ran towards your balcony. You were living in an apartment in a low-floor. So maybe with a bit of agility and luck you could escape with minimum or zero damages.

"Already leaving the party, Y/N?". Winter were on the balcony with a smirk on her face. You know what? That was your last chance and you were ready to fight if that was necessary.

But you didn't have the time to take a single step, because out of nowhere someone put a wet cloth on your mouth. It emanated a strong smell and in few seconds you were falling asleep.

That last thing that you could hear was a voice with a japanese accent. "Love, you must be very tired, why don't you rest a little bit?".

[todayisafridaynight]

*crawling on the floor like the food water atmosphere fish from spongebob* please do you have any minedai fic recs

i have a humble amount my friend :) i'll list the SFW ones first and leave the saucier stuff for the bottom. i encourage yall to peak around the Dojima Daigo/Mine Yoshitaka tag on AO3  and find some other gems i might've missed (because i have def missed out on some great stuff, but if there’s any other fics that aren’t AO3 that are also good send em my way)

"if they all say so" by bio_at

literally one of my all-time fave minedai fics and fics Period i'm in love with this thing. it's just the gang teasing talking with mine about daigo in a reality where mine lives beyond 3. i'm selling it short on how lovely and feel-good this fic is like please read it i'm not good at selling things--

"Batter Up" by McEuropeskies

mine takes daigo to the batting cages and has to endure watching him make the worst swings of his life, inevitably leading to A Personal Favorite wherein he has to help him with his stance. as much as i love composed and calculating mine, it's also really fun to see him lose his cool a bit, and this fic's full of that in a way that also doesn't do it excessively. it's cute, it's short, it's funny, and it's got baseball. i love it.

"Only Him" by frozenCinders

i talked bout this one a couple weeks back but it's a short, cute, and sweet fic wherein mine and daigo go out on an impromptu dinner date to smile burger. i just love how casual and carefree daigo is and i love how mine Also loves how casual and carefree daigo is (even if he appears somewhat unprofessional, but that's a part of it isn't it)

"New Heights" by celadon_dreams

they get stuck in an elevator, wherein its the perfect time to be even remotely, subtly ballsy about the fact you're crushing on your coworker. in a twist though it's actually daigo having butterflies in his stomach and making a move, a nice switch up i really like to see from minedai fics

"Record" (marked as adult but nothing overly graphic happens) by gwyllgi

it's just mine and daigo waltzing, but it's written in a way that's just So. i really like it, it's a great vibe. it's very domestic That's the word i was looking for :)

"from the ashes of us" by jaigheart

REALLY GOOD Mine Lives is hard to write but the build up for this and the exploration into daigo's mind and feelings (PLUS BARTENDER BESTIE) was IMMACULATE. plus i ALWAYS love a daigo-centric fic...

"Bangkok Necktie" by Skysquid22

ANOTHER REALLY SWELL MINE LIVES FIC daigo and mine chatting after mine attempts suicide and tho it doesnt downplay the seriousness of the situation, it does a neat job of easing out of the tense circumstances into a more hopeful atmosphere for mine's future

"Sweet Tone" (+18) by frozenCinders

mine's down horrendous and just wants to shag daigo. fics exploring mine's obsession with daigo in one way or another are great to me, but i can prob save that rant for another post. since he can't get daigo, the second best thing he's got (aside from fuckin dudes who might vaguely look or sound like him) is having an innocuous phone call with him. just the way bro's really about to bust while daigo's talking about the most Not Sexy things ever is what makes me love this

"Always Be Prepared for Anything" (+18) by ravenselle

daigo gets stuck in a vent and mine has to get him out of it, and that alone was enough to make me wanna read. the way gwyllgi writes everything out really capitalizes on the humor factor for me, with the actual shagging being moreso a bonus (with a pretty goofy ending too. poor majima LMAO).

#snap chats #fic recs #minedai #'humble amount' girl i looked through the entire tag again LMAO #had to remind myself of some good ones #but yeah happy reading ! and if yall find or have any more good minedai fics let a brother know #im bouta start writing to fill the void im greedy

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

random details about my shugadabi I DON'T DANCE au because why not:

This particular au was born from me listening to (of course!) I Don't Dance from the HSM2 soundtrack... And Shrek, I must admit. A lot of Shrek.

The first scene that I got on my head was of the Lov gang on a fair of sorts, where Touya would slowly realize how much he's missed Tomura in his life. It was very playful, with Accidentally In Love playing on the background as the sun sets on them.

The other scene was of Dabi and Tomura's first big baseball facedown during Tomura's challenge game. It's their first interaction on approximately 12 years and maaaan, Touya can only think about how Tomura still knows how to push all his right buttons. Tomura's pitching and Dabi's on the bat. Things scalate between them to a full fight that ends up in seconds. Tomura throws his ass to the ground super fast and 'cause Touya got a little distracted looking at his face so closely. You'd think it'd make him mad, but it made him horny lol.

Maybe the main pov would be Dabi's.

It has a juvenile romance vibe to me?!?! It's full of pop songs and cliché moments that play into the whole irony sense. The joke is that people turned their deal into the main entertaining act of the season, but the bubble gum scene they live in doesn't match the complexity of what they're going throught. Although they accept romance in the form of pop, it's also a cover for all the rotten history between them.

A big part of our society has this idea of sports and arts being a supreme way to deal with your emotions, but I want to depict here the ugly side of it. Many artists and athletes seem to lose their humanity in their search for perfection, an option the people in power prefer. At some point Tomura starts creating for the pressure of creating and Touya realizes he hasn't really enjoy a game in fucking years, too caught up in making his passion a vehicle of his revenge. You could say this is also a story about how your traumas can even ruin the things you enjoy and take away years from you, but it's never too late to learn how to enjoy those hobbies again, this time for yourself, your enjoyment, your comfort.

I think it's gonna be a no quirks au and I'm gonna use the quirks as allegories /motifs / metaphors of what the characters want and how they feel.

I don't know enough about Japan to make this fic realistic and sadly I don't have the time to research, so the places don't matter at all and I'm inventing it, okay?

It's sloooooow burn. I enjoy a lot the friendship dynamic of those two, so it's gonna be first chapter after chapter of them becoming besties and rivals again.

I promise the background characters havw their own thing going on and it is important for the story. For example, at some point you'll get to see Toga's past and why she's been taking art classes with Tomura. She wants to express her experience as a weird girl through horror paintings with details made with real blood.

Do you gremlins want the link to the spotify playlist to this au?

Rewatch: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "Out of Mind, Out of Sight" (S1Ep11)

Summary: An invisible force is attacking those around Cordelia, and it’s up to Buffy to figure out how to put things to an end before Cordelia is next.

Written by: Joss Whedon, Ashley Gable, Thomas A. Swyden

Directed by: Reza Badiyi 

Aired: May 19th, 1997

WARNING: This post contains spoilers. 

I wish I could find words for how excited I am to talk about this episode. It was genuinely one of my favorites and that’s saying a lot, I think. The nostalgia I have for this episode is incomprehensible. Let’s jump in.

Recap: As the May queen coronation approaches, Cordelia is buzzing with excitement. Meanwhile, Buffy feels invisible as it has been made clear how little she fits in, even with her friends. Cordelia’s date gets attacked by a floating baseball bat. When Buffy investigates, she finds the attacker left behind a message. While the rest of the Scoobies do research to figure out what they’re dealing with, Buffy talks to Cordelia. Harmony is pushed down the stairs and Buffy follows an invisible assailant. The gang realizes that the attacker is Marcie Ross, a girl who went missing six months ago. They theorize that Marcie was invisible to everyone else, and so she literally turned invisible. She has a vendetta against Cordelia. After Cordelia finds one of her teachers unconscious, she asks for help. The rest of the gang stays behind to come up with ways to make Marcie visible again while Buffy and Cordelia head to the Bronze for the coronation. Marcie lures the gang into the basement and attempts to suffocate them before attacking Buffy and Cordelia. She takes them to the Bronze, where she plans to mutilate Cordelia’s face. Buffy stops her though, and two government men come and take Marcie away.

Overall Thoughts: This is one of the episodes I distinctly remember from my childhood. I seriously don’t know how anyone could forget this episode, it feels like one that would become permanently ingrained in people’s minds. That being said, I think I was most looking forward to this episode, and it didn’t disappoint. 

I only have one real issue with this episode, and it’s something that comes up at the very beginning of the episode and is dropped after that. In the beginning, we see Buffy stumble out of the library and her bag spills, revealing all of her miscellaneous weaponry. This is fine, I guess, but it’s something we’ve already seen used before, in the first episode. The second time isn’t really necessary, and in my opinion, it’s too much. It’s used as a moment to highlight the ‘otherness’ Buffy feels throughout the episode, and it sets up an interesting dynamic between her and Cordelia. 

We’ve talked about it many times, but just to hammer it home: A lot of this season is spent with Buffy trying to be a normal girl, where everything around her shows just how different from everyone she is. There’s an underlying connection between her and Cordelia, as throughout the season we are reminded that Buffy used to be exactly like Cordelia. This is something that the episode plays with a lot, and I enjoy it. 

Buffy spends this episode being the outsider, which is fitting because the episode focuses on a girl who was so much of an outcast that she literally turned invisible. This feeling that Buffy has, and the empathy that she has towards Marcie at first, makes Buffy and Cordelia’s inevitable team up even better. 

This episode also plays into the strength that the last episode had - connecting the season-long arc of the Master within the plot of a totally unrelated episode. I like when they do this a lot more than just regular filler episodes, it makes the show feel much more like the show that I know and love. There’s also a bit of foreshadowing in this episode, if you look carefully. Angel and Giles team up in this, and there’s a lot of talk about a codex that contains prophecies centering around the Slayer. It’s a great set up for the next episode.

Overall, this was an incredible episode. I found myself excitedly looking at the parallels and noticing little things I never would have seen if not looking at it through an analytical eye. I’m looking forward to the next episode, and I’m getting excited to see where the rest of the series takes us.

Fashion Corner/Costuming: I don’t think I have been more excited for this section in my entire life than I am right now. There is such a small detail in the costuming this episode that I caught, and I’m glad I did because it adds so much to the episode.

Like we talked about previously, Buffy is very uniquely isolated in this episode. What drives this home is a costuming detail. In the first half of the episode, almost every one of the teens are wearing the same colors: Baby blue, light pink/orange, and green. The only one not wearing these colors -- sans a few background actors -- is Buffy. It’s a little visual cue to show how ‘other’ Buffy feels in the beginning. I loved it, and I would love to see more. 

Characterization: Remember how I’ve been complaining about how shallow and one dimensional Cordelia has been written this season? This episode made it all worth it. Arguably, the writers knew what they were doing this whole time. 

At first, I really thought this was going to be another episode of Cordy being unbearable. I’m happy to say I was proven wrong. This episode, particularly the second half, shows us a Cordelia that is almost, almost unrecognizable. She’s vulnerable, and we’re given glimpses of the Cordelia she goes on to be. It’s made clear that for the most part, the vapid mean girl who only thinks of herself is a facade. When she isn’t playing the part, she’s human in the best way. It’s a nice change of pace for the Cordelia we’ve had all season, even if it ends the second any of her friends are around.

I want to see more of this Cordy that we saw this episode, and I know I will, so I’m glad I held on for as long as I did.

Hii!! I love your hamefura fanart, it is so cute! My question is, how would you imagine a hamefura modern au? Have a lovely day!

Sorry for the (really) late reply and thanks for the compliment buddy! It really makes me happy that people like my silly doodles 🥰

Now for the question, I went a little overboard with it. I’m probably gonna draw the rest of the cast later. And I already drew Sophia but didn’t like the outfit I chose, so I’m gonna redo her later.

For the setting the Magic School → Boarding School for the rich, it’s probably in Switzerland or somewhere in Europe like Institut Le Rosey. I imagine it kinda like Ouran Highschool Host Club(must watch for a shojo/harem fan) aka a super elite school for the rich cause all the gang (minus Maria) are from the elite noble houses, so it fits, just change the uniforms to the dungeon episode ones or the ones from that volume extra.

These characters look really white, so it would not be set in Japan



You can find some drawings of how I picture them here

Now headcanon time below: (they are random af)

Katarina

Nationality + Ethnicity(the only one I’m gonna do): Luigi is Italian, Miridiana is latina(nobody is gonna change my mind about my latina!Miridiana headcanon) or asian(I have seen people said that she is a tiger mom, and i agree to a certain degree, but i’m not that familiar with asian culture to make an assumption)

Clothes: sporty/comfy, her hair is always pull up(via braid or ponytail) because it gets in the way of her silly adventures

Family status: the Claes are the equivalent of the Armani/Gucci family(just cause Luigi is italian)

She tried Hunnie Pop(pls don’t search it up if you are a minor), she thought that it was a cute dating sim, that opened a whole can of worms 🥴

She wouldn’t be engaged to anyone here, cause it’s a modern setting (rip gigi’s biggest advantage)

Alan

Clothes: i could say emo, but I don’t think Alan would put THAT much effort in his appearance/make up. So casual bike/punk clothes

Thoughts about the various forms of Trigun:

I got into Trigun through Stampede, the 2023 CGI-animated anime. I love Stampede a lot. But having read the manga, I think it's missing a lot of the depth and richness of the written version.

So first of all, about the women: Stampede got rid of one of the main characters of the manga (referred to here as Trimax despite my meaning both Trigun manga). They got rid of Millie and replaced her with Old Drunk Roberto. I enjoyed Meryl and Roberto and that whole plotline when I first watched Stampede, and still do. But having read the manga, I... do not love that choice? I don't super love how any version of Trigun treats its female main characters, okay, they all have different strengths and problems. Millie and Meryl as insurance agents in the og Trimax manga are interesting and fun characters, and by a few dozen issues in they seem pretty well-rounded, or at least Meryl does. But they're also comedic characters who almost always don't understand what's going on, and I don't like that in women characters :( we'll see what I think after finishing the manga.

But anyway, Stampede replaced one of the Insurance Women pair with a guy, and I don't love that. And Meryl is more of a stock naive newbie-journalist in Stampede, whereas she was a quite competent if sometimes hasty insurance agent in the manga. I dunno. The character has a very different arc in Stampede versus Trimax that I'm not getting into here. I like Meryl and how she complements Vash in both versions, though!

ALSO. Stampede has almost zero fun side characters, whereas Trimax is bursting with colorful characters. A kid who betrays his father to bring a gang aboard a sand ship, then repents! The leader of said gang, Brilliant Dynamites Neon! An eccentric gunsmith! A pair of farmers raising a beautiful garden on their land, and their son the grunt for a gang who wants to buy and sell that land! THE KIDS PLAYING BASEBALL! The pigeons where are the pigeons! And in Stampede those characters are gone. Just... gone. Almost all the side characters are really bland and almost nonexistent :(

It feels like a much much emptier desert, in Stampede. Barely a glimpse of the rich complexity of daily life that we saw in Trimax.

But!! I wish Stampede would have adapted all of these characters, because I loved how they changed the Nebraska gang to be more clearly human. And how Vash (Stampede version) showed them compassion!! I'm a complete sucker for protagonists showing people undeserved compassion, okay? Also, the way Stampede showed the diner lady who betrayed Vash was great. I wish they'd done that with more characters.

That said, Stampede is a far shorter story than the manga or original anime, compressing LOTS of events into very little screentime, and I get that that limits the amount of distinct characters and plots they can give time to. I can still enjoy Stampede, I just wish I didn't have to choose between a more compassionate and non-womanizing Vash (Stampede) and a cast of wonderful characters including the Meryl and Millie power-duo (manga + 1990s anime).

I love Trigun: Stampede a lot, but it's a much simpler story. I'm glad I got into it Stampede first so that I could go to the manga and enjoy all the extra dimensions of the story—but also know what's going on better having seen the CGI version! Watching Stampede clarified a lot of confusing fight scenes and plotlines that I have a hard time understanding in written/drawn form.

#this is rambly and vaguely written toward people who know Trigun. sorry mutuals. you can read this if you feel so inclined though XD #trigun posting late at night #robin talks trigun
