#Mailroom Open!- Hello, I would like to request a love letter for Alhaitham. NSFW and Yandere response please, and any pet names work but if you could use Habib that would be great 💖 (I hope I did this right)
_______________________
"To my favorite feeble scholar,
I hope this letter is finding you well! I have arrived safely in Fontaine and haven't known a moment of peace since I have arrived. The chaotic cocktail of getting settled into a new city, preparing for this research project, and missing home makes me yearn for the simpler times spent in Sumeru.
Especially my time spent with you.
Thats enough of my lamenting, how fare things with you back home? Have you finally shaken the title of acting Grand Sage yet? Is Kaveh being too much of a "menace"? (Also, please let him know his mother says hello and sends her best wishes to you both). Regardless, I hope you are taking care yourself. Archons know I can't ensure you are eating well while I'm nations away. I will just have to trust that you are treating yourself with the same kindness I would extend to you.
On the topic of kindness, I have a gift for you attached to this letter. I know while I am here doing my research for the next six months we won't be able to have our usual meetings at Lambad's to discuss books over good food, but I hope these books will entertain you well during my absence.
I'm eagerly counting down the days until I can see you again. I find myself thinking of you often and it is a truly vexing experience to see you on whim like I would do so before. It makes the days seem to drag on even longer, but I pray time will fly by regardless of this.
-Sincerely, your wayward scholar
[In a simply decorated box, there are three books: one is on the topic on Fontaine's hydro transportation system and infrastructure, the second is about the complexities surrounding Fontaine's judicial system, and lastly is an infamous and popular erotica anthology from Fontaine (think the Karma sutra but French)]

꩜ Letter Content: Dom! GN! Reader x Yan! Sub! Alhaitham, Alhaitham calls you "habib", lightly implied abuse of power, unhealthy possessive and obsessive relationship from Alhaitham, mentions of sex toys, lmk if I missed out anything ! ꩜ Delivery Notes: He tipped me extra and requested me to be extra careful with the delivery so I'll hand it over to you directly instead of leaving it at your door as per usual procedure! ꩜ Wanna write a love letter yourself? Check out it out here!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There’s a knock at your door when you’re relaxing in your room, opening it shows a hotel staff member who passes you a delivery. And it doesn’t take a genius to know it’s from your beloved feeble scholar.
Alhaitham sends you a simple package, nothing too gaudy or showy, just a few accents of turquoise to denote who the sender is. It’s secure and durable, perfect for weathering long and bumpy trips. 
When you open up the package, you find a few gifts he carefully arranged so that nothing would be broken if the contents were jostled around a little too hard. Gingerly, you lift out a lacquered box which reveals a set of headphones and a music player that’s almost identical to the one he owns. It rests in its cushioned groove in the box with the colours of the device matching your favourites instead of the shades of green on his set.
There’s a small note attached to the music player, “In case you ever miss me too much, you’ll have my voice as background noise for your moping, habib.” On the back of it, he’s written something akin to a track list. Flicking through the different audio files for a quick sample, you realise there’s one for every mood. Tracks with words of encouragement (...or as encouraging as someone like Alhaitham can get), ones scolding you for overworking. There’s even a really cute one where he softly hums a love song that both of you adore, his voice low and soothing. However, the best track of all might be the one where you get to hear his grunts and moans, as if he were right next to your ear in person. The sounds are so sinful and wet, you could just picture him grinding on his dildo, trying to reach his peak. And the way he pitifully breaths out a “I c-can’t cum witho- AH! -without you!” has you yearning for him yet again.
Taking the headphones off before you get too carried away, you retrieve his letter in the package. The envelope is the one from his Grand Sage office, not that he ever really uses them for work purposes. Inside it, his reply is written on parchment, the kind that’s provided for him due to his high position once again. His handwriting is as tidy as ever, the font and formatting standardised throughout the letter. His reply reads:
Tumblr media
“Reply for: My springtime sublimity,
I was wondering when you were going to write back to me. After all, there’s no way you would’ve forgotten me in the midst of your research or from meeting someone new, right? Regardless, you have not left my mind since your departure and I’m sure it’s the same for you too habib. 
Do let me know if the gifts are to your liking. I’ve managed to recreate my headphones and they will definitely be useful in blocking out anyone else who might be getting on your nerves or when you’re trying to focus on your research. I included my latest read in the package as well. I'd like for us to discuss our thoughts on the book, even if it’ll have to be done over pen and paper. I’m eager to hear your thoughts on it.
There’s also no reason for me to answer whether I’ve managed to resign from my title as Grand Sage, as evident from the envelope and parchment used. I simply have an unfortunate one last thing to wrap up before I can do so.
Moving on, habib, you know Kaveh is always a menace. I relayed his mother’s well wishes to him earlier and he just smiled. Now he’s locked himself in his room. I never have any idea what’s in that mind of his. It’ll be a miracle if I don’t have to drag him out before he starves. Although I must ask, since when were you privy to Kaveh’s background? I don’t recall him bringing it up around us. Habib, just how close are you to him? How close has he gotten to you? Do write back to me and explain.
Now, this is where I must thank you for your gifts. They all have proven to be succinct and informative. However, I must comment on the choice of one of the books. My, I knew you were lewd before, but to send me an erotica anthology habib? Though, I never said I minded it. I am simply inspired, that's all. Perhaps, you should come back sooner and we can try some of the positions referenced in it. In the meantime, habib, I can only pleasure myself with toys, although, they’re nothing in comparison to you. I’m addicted to you, the caress of your hands on my skin, how only you can make me shudder and cry out your name. You have me wrapped around your finger.
I crave you desperately, habib. There are so many words I could use to describe you with my extensive vocabulary, but the most fitting one would be blossoming. You’ve managed to sow all these emotions in me and now that they’re blooming, you’ll take responsibility right? I’ve always been logical but the degree of affection I feel for you is irregular, all-encompassing and ever-growing. Almost as if you’re twisting the very essence of my mind, rotting and changing me from the inside out. It matches in a way, spring being the season of rebirth.
This letter has gotten too long, I will end it off here habib. I trust you will stay safe and return in one piece unharmed. I await your reply.
May your days be peaceful,
- Alhaitham -”
Tumblr media
Setting his letter back in the package, you pick up the book he entrusted to you. Flipping through the pages, it’s littered with markings and annotations from the scribe, he even wrote some questions for you to ponder over. “What do you think about this point?” “Why would the author write this in?” But there are a few unrelated… unsettling annotations that you probably shouldn’t dwell on for too long such as, “Do you know just how much I miss you?” or “How were you able to corrupt my reason and rationality to this extent?” These annotations were left in here for a reason, Alhaitham is a smart man, a renowned member of the Haravatat. There’s a message behind his carefully selected words, waiting for you to unearth it before it festers and decays into something even worse.
Lastly, written neatly on the inside of the back cover, is a puzzling riddle, each word written in a different ancient script. After deciphering the question, an unpleasant awareness worms its way into your mind.
It reads, “Would you still extend your same kindness to me after realising what I would do for you?”

Warnings: Typical Theo, Singer!Reader.
Inspiration: Taylor Swift's You belong with me song from fearless album. ᯓ★
Authors note: Hey yall! Sorry for the late update, I have been really busy for the past few days, hope you understand. This is the first part . Let me know your comments down! Lots of love #A/N 💌
Tagged: @jetblackpayne and @m0rg4na and @lafrone
THE NIGHT BEFORE YULE BALL
y/n decided to tell Pansy the truth. Whats the point? She would ask her in a few mins anyway.
y/n POV
"Y/n!!!" Pansy pounced on me from behind as I entered the Slytherin common room. I sigh, now is the time I thought.
"girls got something to sayyy?" She asked teasingly. I acted as if I didnt know what she was talking about, but I knew this will not help me for long.
"ugh fine, I'll just ask, Who did you ask? Or did someone ask you out for the yule ball?" She smiled.
"Ok, I'll tell for that cute little puppy eyes of yours" I say mockingly for which she laughed out.
"someone asked me out" I say, trying to make her, lose her patience. "yeah… who is it?" "Theodore-" "NOTT!!!" she screams. "shhhh- yeah him! Keep your voice low will you?" I look up from her and scan the room to see if the tall boy was anywhere near. He wasnt.
"Ohh… I never knew that play boy had feelings for you" she laughs. I bite my lip. Oh Pansy, I would love it if that was true. Only if you know. I thought. "No no its nothing like that. He just wanted a girl-" "to come with him to the yule ball because he just broke up with Alexjandra? I got to know" She nodded. "But I didnt know he chose you!" she teases. I smile.
After a long pause.
"I wanted to tell you something Pansy, even if its kinda late, I-I… I have-" "feelings for Theo ever since year one? Well if that is the case, I know. By the way its way too late to tell that now" She fold her hands. I drop my jaw. How does she know everything? "well how do u know?" I question.
"Open your eyes y/n. I have been your friend for four years. I have always noticed your side glances, the way you change the topic if I ever talk about him, the way you get so nervous while approaching him, these signs, its obvious!" I blushed heavily. "why didn't you tell me then? Tell me that knew?" "I waited till you confessed by your own will" she smiled. I was still surprised. I pulled her in for a hug. "Thats what I call a soul friend" "whats even a soul friend mean?" she laughs as I hug her tighter. "Who did you ask out?" I ask. "Draco" she smiled. "well doesn't take me by surprise" I wink. "so we are matching green tomorrow?" "Yes! Ill show you my gown!" saying so, she pulled me up to the girls dorm.
YULE BALL
Theodore Nott's POV
Draco nudged me. "will you tell me who you asked out? I mean I have been waiting for that reply ever since yesterday!" "Dude she is Slytherin alright, calm down!" "ya who is she? The name I mean, to be more specific" he rolled his eyes. "You will know soon enough" I laugh at his impatience. "The fact that I already told I'm going out with Pansy" he grunts. I laugh. Pansy came out of no where behind Draco and surprised him. "How do I look Draco?" She asks, her cheeks flustered. "All the best you two" I wink at them. "All the best with y/n! break her heart, I'll break yours" Pansy threatened. Draco smiled. He knows now. And the pair left. I turn hoping to see y/n, instead it was Hermione, she came down the stairs and linked her hands with Krum. I roll my eyes. I hate both of them. My patience was running out. Where is she? I groaned. At the same moment, y/n came down from the stairs, holding the railing.
She wore a nude makeup barely visible. Or... it was her natural beauty. A green satin gown highlighting her thin frame. I was stunned to see the charming young women approaching me. Her eyes searched the hallway and finally landed on mine.
Y/n POV
I blush when I saw him staring back at me. I smile and approach him. "There you are!" "sì, bella mia" he says something in Italian, and takes my hand in his palm and kisses it. This isn't helping. I blush more. "what does that mean?" I laugh. "common lets go" he says smiling and I link my arms with his. We reach the hall, and sure there are many people as expected. "Where is that Marlowe?" he snarls searching for her. I get sad a little bit. "hey" I place both of my palms in his cheek and gently force him to look at me. A very brave move from me, indeed. "today, can it be just for both of us? Even if we are just acting and you know… at least we'll try to make each other happy and have some fun" I say smiling.
He returns my smile and his hands grab by waist and pulls me closer to him. "If you say so Amore mio!" he smiles and looks directly into my eyes. I caress his cheek when all of a sudden and hand yanked me away from him. I gasp and see who the intruder of my dream moment was. Alexjandra Marlowe.
"Theo! How can you choose a trash bag to replace me!" she whines. "look we are meant to be together, its written in the stars darlings!" cringe I taught. Theo pulls his arms out of her grasp and says in a dangerously low voice;
"leave us alone jerk. You have no right calling her a trash bag, well actually your mind is peice of shit which should be kicked out in the trash can first. And touch my girlfriend like that, I'll kill you" he growls and with a fraction of a second he grabs my face and places a peck gently near my lips" He pulled my waist and glued the tiniest space between us and walked to the center of the hall. "Want to dance?" he asks. "with you? Ofcourse!" I smile. The music plays and everyone starts dancing to the beat. "you'v got nice moves y/n" "haha thanks-i used to be a dancer" We danced like there was no end. But we took a break to get a drink. "well played" he compliments me grabing a drink for himself and hands me one. "Thanks!" I smile. The music stops all of a sudden. "Well seems like there is a glitch- would anyone like to volunteer to sing meantime?" Madame McGonagall says. A hand raises up almost immediately. "That hand seems familiar" I mumble to my self. Pancy?! I never knew she could sing! The mic was passed to her; "well I dont know how to sing actually" she giggles, "thaught so" I mumble to Theo, who laughed. "But I do know someone who is a singer here" she pressed the 'do'. Oh what is she plotting now? "y/n y/l/n!!! cheer her to come on stage!" I gasp and i blush as all eyes were now on me. Theodore nudged me to go; "common y/n! I wanna see my girl shining!" "Do you want me to leave you?" i quick whisper. "I want to see you on stage! Go on! Wait i'll walk you to stage" he winks. As he links his arms on mine. Everyones starts cheering!
Y/N! Y/N! Y/N! I was flustered as this was my first time i got too much attention. I go up on stage and wave at the crowd. I smile and laugh. Madame McGonagall hands me the mic.
This is my chance to reveal my feelings for him, I decided to sing the song I wrote; YOU BELONG WITH ME.Alright here we go…1..2..3
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do

"I Wish You Were A Boy" II Hazel Callahan
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairing: Hazel Callahan x fem! Reader
Contains: Angst, Fluff, homophobia, and i think thats it
(Apologies for any spelling mistakes, English is not my first language)
A/N: so this story takes pace in the 80s where relationships and Romance of the same gender were not very common, and is not allowed.
Summery: Your whole life you were told loving a girl was not right and bad. But when Hazel Callahan came along, all of those thoughts dissapeared.
It was a slow, bright day in 7th grade year, you lay down on the school's bleachers watching the winter sky's clouds hover over the bright yellow sun. It was very cold out today and you decided to wear a dark blue sweater to keep you cozy, but it was not helping very much. You sigh and close your eyes before you hear a soft voice grab your attention. "Hi, um im Hazel. Hazel Callahan. Do you mind if i sit here with you?" The girl says looking down at you. "Of course! Im Y/n by the way. Its really nice to meet you Hazel!" You respond to her. She just smiles at you and sits down beside you. You sit up putting your hands on your lap. The first thing you noticed about this girl was her cool rocker hair. It was nicely cut and sat just above her shoulders. You and hazel begin picking up a quick conversation and that is how you both became best friends. You and Hazel never were really ones to attract to boys in your grade like other girls did. There was one time at a sleep over at Hazel's house where you were both talking about random topics where your eyes went to her lips. that was the first time you ever felt something. it was a weird feeling that since that day you could never get out of your head. You knew it was wrong to like hazel. she was a girl afterall, but a little voice in your head kept saying it was not.
Years later, here you are laying in your bed with hazel, watching The Breakfast Club. "Hey, im going to go change into something comfy. I'll be right back alright?" Hazel says making you look at her. You were both comfortable in each other's houses so she already knew where the bathroom was. You nod your head and bring your attention back to the movie. After what felt like 10 minutes, you wonder what was taking Hazel so long, so you peek into the restroom next door to see Hazel's back facing you as she takes her shirt off to reveal her white sports bra. You blink fast and you notice even how flawless her back was. She had tiny freckles that looked like little sprinkles against her milky skin. You feel yourself staring too long and then hazel turns back around. But the thing that caught you off guard was that she only wore a sports bra and some green sweatpants. You gulped and turned back to the TV. Why were you feeling nervous? Why did you continue staring? Why were you staring at your best friend who was a girl that way? You look at the clock and realize it's past midnight. "Haze, we have school in the morning, let's go to sleep." You say looking into her bright blue eyes. "Yeah alright, you go change too, you can't wear jeans to bed silly." Hazel giggles. You nod and get a pair of fuzzy pink pj's and go to the restroom to change. Once you get inside, you look at yourself in the mirror. Are you really inlove with your girl bestfriend? No no this is wrong. You thought. You start crying as you look at your reflection. Mascara starts smearing down your face and you wipe it off. You look at your night cloths and put them on. After, you walk back to your room to see Hazel already asleep on the other end of your full sized bed. "Good night Haze." You whisper, kissing the girl on the head.
Then comes the day of Prom. You of course had no interest in boys so you or hazel did not have a date. You both decided to go together and wore matching outfits. You wore a light blue dress with little diamonds across the chest, while Hazel wore a light blue Suit with diamonds all over the tie. You both got ready at her house. You were fixing up hazel's dark brown fluffy hair. "Y/n I don't know, do I really look okay?" Hazel asks looking at you both in the mirror. "Hazel. You look amazing. I mean you look beautiful! Look at yourself!" You shout, taking her face in your hands and facing her head towards the mirror. If you could look a little closely you would be able to see a light blush on her face. She rolled her eyes and scoffed. After Hazel, you decided to put on some makeup. You were putting on some light Mascara when you see Hazel in the corner of you eye. It seemed like she was checking you out but you brushed it off. After finishing up, Hazel's mom took photos of you both for "memories" . Hazel drove the two of you to the destination but sat there in silence. "Y/n, it's okay. You look great. Don't be nervous and besides you will have me if you need a dancing partner." Hazel encourages as you pats your head. You nod and continue to look ahead of you.
When you both got inside. You and hazel immediately walk to the empty bleachers. After a while of you and Hazel giggling about random things, you feel the sudden urge to want to dance on the dance floor. "Uh haze?" You look at Hazel. She hums and looks at you with her big blue eyes. "Wanna go dance? Its alright if not. " You ask looking towards the crows of people. "Yeah sure Y/n cmon!" Hazel gets up grabbing your hands. You both arrive to the dance floor and then a slow dance song comes on. You look at Hazel to see her already looking at you "wanna dance m'lady?" Hazel asks in an English accent. You laugh at her and put your arms around her neck. She immediately puts her hands on your waist and you both look at each other. You see Hazel quickly look at your lips and then back into your eyes. "Y/n, I love you. More than a friend. I want to be with you." Hazel quickly says. Your eyes widen and it's like your body takes control over itself and you kiss her. She immediately kisses you back passionately. "Hazel, can we go somewhere, private?" You ask quickly. "Mhm yeah come on." You both start running to any empty room you can. As soon as you both find the janitors closet and as soon as you lock the door behind you she pushes you up against the door and kisses you with much hunger. You hum into the kiss and put your hands in her hair. "Hazel. Hazel please tell me this is wrong. Tell me I'm not supposed to be doing this. "You say into the kiss tearing up. "Shh sh it's okay baby. Relax." Hazel replies putting her hands in your blue dress. "Hazel. I wish you were a boy." You cry, breaking from the kiss and hugging her tight. She shushes you and calmly rubs her hands against your back. "I love you Hazel. I love you so much." You look up at her with dazed eyes. "I love you more my love." Hazel whispers kissing you on the head.

DIE FOR YOU - chapter 10 : "#pussypower"
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
y/n received a text from hyunjin saying that he was in front of her dorm, so she got her purse and said goodbye to her friends and left the house.
"hey hyunjin" y/n said as she sat down in his car.
"hey cutie" he looked at her in awe, why does she look more beautiful than normal? he couldn't take his eyes off her for a whole minute.
"uhhh hyunjin?? hellooo?" she waved her hand in front of him, confused.
"oh- yea sorry. lets go" he put his hands on the wheel and started driving.
"oh by the way congrats on getting the solo! i'm sure you'll do great." she congratulated him, in y/n's opinion thats a pretty big deal.
"aww thanks y/n, i hope so."
the ride to the restaurant was a bit of a drive from what y/n could see on the directions, so she turned on the radio, which started playing crappy music.
"hyunjin can i have aux?" y/n asked
"hmmm i don't normally let people have aux in my car.." he pondered
"oh.." y/n looked down at her lap dejectedly.
"but i guess i'll make an exception for you." he looked at her and winked.
"woah there buddy," y/n laughed at his attempt of flirting, "thanks though, my music taste doesn't disappoint."
y/n took her phone out and connected to the bluetooth and shuffled her playlist. after that the car ride was silent with the music in the background.
thats was until hyunjin decided he should try to hold y/n's hand on the center console. her hand was already on it so his excuse could simply be "i didn't see your hand". so he he put his hand on top of her and intertwined their fingers. y/n was hesitant at first, letting her fingers just lay there, she eased up after a few minutes though, holding onto his fingers too.
‿୨♡୧‿
the two arrived at the restaurant and had ordered their food, now they were just waiting.
"hey y/n lets play 21 questions" hyunjin suggested to pass by time.
"hmm okay" she agreed
"okay i'll ask first, whats your favorite superhero?" (oh my goodness i love this questionnnn😁😁ifykyk)
"oohhh spiderman definetely, i love him sooo much, i have all his merch and posters everywhere!! see look he's even in my phonecase!" she turned her phone to show hyunjin. he found it cute how excited she got over something so simple.
"wow i wonder what i have to do to make you love me like that" he tried to flirt again
y/n started laughing, "i won't ever love anyone as much as spiderman."
"yea yea whatever you say, it's your turn to ask now" he reminded her
"hmm, what other hobbies do you have other than dancing?" she was curious
"well i paint a lot, like all the time actually-" hyunjin got cut off by y/n's gasp.
"YOU PAINT? like as in.. red yellow green blue and paintbrush??" she was flabbergasted.
"uhh yea..?" he was confused
"but- wha- how? i mean, you're...you." she tried to explain
"meaning?" he raised a brow
"well you're supposed to be some fuckboy you know, only romantic guys paint and shit." she explained
"well i can be a fuckboy and romantic no?" he asked
"i mean yea i guess..still though thats shocking. you HAVE to show me your art sometimes."
"mmm maybe, usually i don't show anyone my art."
"well you said the same thing about giving aux but look how that turned out." she smirked and took a sip of her wine.
"y/n those are two completely different things"
"blah blah yap all you want. your turn now!"
"okay..whats you're type?" he asked
y/n's faced dropped, did he really have to ask that now? things were going perfectly fine, and she didn't want him to know her type was him.
just as she was going to spew out some nonsense the waiter came with their food. she internally thanked the waiter and gave him a smile. soon the topic of y/n's type vanished as they dug into the food.
‿୨♡୧‿
hyunjin and y/n had finished eating and now were on the way back to campus. once again, hands intertwined on the center console with her playlist in the background.
they arrived back at her dorm and hyunjin got out to open y/n's door, then helped her up.
"okay! time to help you study" he said while walking to the stairs.
"wait you were serious?!?!" y/n thought he was joking when he said that.
"duh!! why would i lie?" he pouted.
"but um you know..my friends are in there and what if they see us?" y/n was trying to find any excuse at this point. god knows what would happen to her if he came inside.
"y/n it's almost midnight im sure they're asleep, plus yunjin is probably with her boyfriend or something." he grabbed her hand and dragged her along.
"fine fine, just be quiet until we get inside my room." she said sternly and opened the door. they quietly took of their shoes and made their way to y/n's room. she opened the door and waited for him to step inside.
"well.. lets get studying i guess." she went to sit at her desk.

Hello I was just wondering if we could get some more stuff and ideas about the sonadow future museum au (im just going to call it that cuz thats shorter)
heres a quick sketch cuz I really liked the designs👍
Tumblr media
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YES YOU CAN AND IL OVE UR STYLE WITH IT???? I love how uncle-chuck-esc Sonic looks it's the exact vibe I wanted him to have 10/10
I'm in the process of writing this au as an actual story but I'm barely a chapter in yet, but I'll give some more snippets about Shadow and a page of sketches! (its a long read im so sorry but thank you for the ask!!)
Tumblr media
Shadow goes by 'Oliver' as his fake name, he took it from a book he read once and liked the cover. They use He/They pronouns and identifies as something non-binary, he's not in a rush to label himself (they joke they've enough to label around the museum)
He lived as a vagabond until settling in Rainmeadow Town, and being taken in by the museum's solo-curator Beatrice, who's a field mouse with a physical disability and was unable to fully access the museum after she took it over from the previous owners.
Shadow adored museums as it was one of the only places he could visit freely so he has a soft spot, and Beatrice was so nice to him so he stayed to help restore it and got too attached he ended up settling down there. He was anxious at first, but its been five years and he's comfortable living there now
He lived with Beatrice for two years, before managing to earn enough from odd-jobs to buy out the small apartment above the local B&B
He has a stray cat he's taken in who wanders around town when he's at work. The cat is known to be vicious but is a sweetheart around Shadow, somewhat mimicking Shadows own demeaner
He dresses himself as unassuming as possible, and that sometimes makes himself a target for any outsiders of the village He gets tired out easily, due to them restricting their energy so much, but they can still fight viciously (almost feral after so many years outside of civilisation) for a short amount of time though would prefer to run. Shadow also needs rest throughout the day
Due to his tight inhibitor rings, Shadows red stripes and eyes have all dimed to a dull grey, his blood however remains a harsh green so he has to be diligent to ensure he doesn't injure himself in front of anyone. If he loosened his rings they would rapidly shift back to a red and he would regain energy to use his abilities, but he hides them and is extremely paranoid about his true identity
He likes to read and cook, and has a habit of reading while walking around even in the dark. He cooks meals for his cat and refuses to give them cat food from a can
He's a huge coffee fan, and loves brewing it himself with the manual machines at home (but also will still absolutely eat the beans straight if it's been a long day)
They haven't 'aged' but they've 'grown bigger' through mutation, their spines and fur are longer so they appear more mature even if internally he hasn't changed much.
He's always wanted a motorbike, but couldn't travel with one and can't afford the upkeep
Their glasses are generic reading glasses that he doesn't really need, but he finds it grounding to have them in his vision (he feels hidden behind them)
Rainmeadow is a known queer-safe town, despite it's remoteness, and the museum has a hall they regularly hold events in (Shadow is fond of the rollerskate hang-outs they schedule)
He has frequent panic attacks and extreme anxiety, they're selectively mute and uses sign (I use BSL when I'm drawing it out) and can't be around large groups of people for too long. He lets Beatrice work at the front of the museum and he lurks around in the back, people jokingly call him a 'shadow' often (and he's gotten used to the fear that shoots down his spine at the mention of his name)
No one knows of his origins, though Beatrice knows some of his vagabond experiences and topics that makes him uneasy
Shadow has met Rouge a handful of times. When he was saving money, he was contacted by her due to his experience in the museum. Due to his lack of background information, she assumed he had been involved in criminal activity and needed his knowledge on artefacts and assistance in restoring something. Shadow agreed reluctantly, but despite his uncertainty he enjoyed working on the things she brought and Rouge found his genuine interest in history and lack of concern for her intentions to be good company. Shadow became her main contact for these things (though she rarely needs his help) and the two are on good terms despite not being close
Rouge has worked with Team Sonic on occasion, and never worked with GUN. She's infamous but her identity is unknown to the public, except her name on her calling card. A few of Sonic's gang know what she looks like as eventually after knowing them for so long she doesn't wear the spy gear around them all the time, but felt strangely comfortable around Shadow rather quickly so he's seen her face

my opinion about the whole "monty did killed bonnie thing"-
I said this topic is already dead but that's exactly why I wanted to talk about it so I can formulate my opinion more calmly.
Before I start, I wanted to say that I DON'T hate Monty, regardless of whether he killed Bonnie or not (to tell you the truth, I think that if he killed Bonnie, he would be a MUCH cooler character, not because I hate Bonnie, OF COURSE NOT- I love him more than anything, I only love characters that are assholes, I like Monty's personality because of that-) and I know a lot of Bonnie fans hate Monty for this theory, but I'm not one of them, I just want to bring my arguments as to why I think he killed him.
1- SB BASE GAME:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Before the DLC we didn't have much evidence to support this theory, so much so that I didn't believe it myself - the main evidence used to point out this possibility are the messages from the staff, which point out that the last place Bonnie was seen was at Monty Gator golf and that after his disappearance he was replaced by Monty and in Monty's arcade game Steel used a storytelling technique that shows that Monty wants to replace Freddy and he achieves this in one of the endings. Because these are very vague proofs, I never really believed in this theory, it could all just be coincidence, right?After all, Bonnie was the one who went to Monty Gator and if he was the one who attacked Monty?all we had were possibilities, so that's why it was just a theory.
and then the SB dlc came out,and things.... changed- with the glamrock bonnie reveal and new details about his character-the discussion resurfaced
2-RUIN:
As I said above, with the revelation of new details about Bonnie's disappearance, the theory returned - with much more strength. We now not only know about his design and his room but we also know detail about his damage and where he has been all this time.
Tumblr media
The first time we see the character we are on the Monty golf ride where we see a story about how Monty joined the band, and we see Monty admiring glamrock Bonnie and then we see Bonnie himself handing over his place to Monty out of kindness and retire himself - a very strangely wholesome story, which was obviously made for kids to shut up about bonnie.
but we get to see the ugly truth about the rabbit
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he is hidden behind his attraction, where he appears to have been moved from one place to another - where not only does he have every part of his body disconnected but he has a large opening in his chest and his head appears to have been crushed - and The worst thing about this is that it seems like he's alive and he's just been paralyzed for all this time, unable to do anything- thats an cold ass contrast to the feel-good story that we saw in the monty ride.
With the revelation of Bonnie's body and all these new details of the character - many arguments accusing or defending Monty arose - summarizing the arguments against are: The claws and the green paint on Bonnie's body, the carpet under him is from Monty's entrance gator, all monty and bonnie connections. While the arguments in favor of Monty are: he apparently didn't have claws before Bonnie disappeared, he doesn't like going to performances and... I don't know, please, if you know any more arguments in favor of Monty, post them here because I'm genuinely curious. Well, about the arguments in favor, let's analyze the arguments in favor before I give my opinion:
"monty did not have craws before the upgrade"
I see this argument a lot when this discussion is brought up, and I will say: this is not true. Freddy and Roxanne already had claws and in the cutouts he already had claws too, he received the claws UPGRADE after Bonnie's death, but he always had claws, and we don't even know if he received the upgrade before but he ended up breaking them and they replaced them. new, so it's not even right to say that he didn't have these claws before - in fact, this story about "claws to play the bass" is strange in itself since Bonnie didn't have claws, so why would Monty need claws to play the bass? It would open the door to another theory but we won't talk about it today
Tumblr media
"right, he had claws before, but they weren't strong enough to do that kind of damage to Bonnie"
apart from the argument I already brought up that he may have just broken his old claws (but it's just a possibility so I won't bring)...If he is able to destroy the ball launchers in the catwalks with his fists, he could still do this kinda of damage without his upgraded craws- he is strong, he survive am realy high fall😭
"he could not do that to replace bonnie because he don't even like to perfom"
This argument is based on messages from the SB base where it says that Monty skipped another performance to go to the catwalks-
Tumblr media
an addendum is that although I believe that Monty attacked Bonnie, I wouldn't know how to say that the reason is that he wanted to replace him, but there are many implications that Monty wants to be the star so I don't know- It's a stronger argument than the other I would say, but I still think it's somewhat refutable - this message is cited in contrast to the messages of chica eating trash and roxy jumping in front of cars at the roxy raceway, all of these messages help us destroy they- and these are all behaviors that they acquired after the virus which makes them do unusual things- this behavior of monty is listed as "ERRANT BEHAVIOR REPORT" just like roxy,so i assume that was not how monty normaly behaves.
Ok, now let's talk about why I believe Monty attacked Bonnie. Firstly, I wouldn't see any reason for them to connect Monty and Bonnie so much if Monty hadn't had something to do with Bonnie's death - Bonnie disappeared in Monty's area and Monty who replaces him - the messages even said that monty could be more popular than bonnie,he benefited differently from nonnie's disappearance, he he received his bass, his glasses, his place, etc... no one else benefited from death other than him.
Not to mention that Steel Wool really pushes this idea of ​​Monty wanting to be more popular, his arcade and Bonnie's whole story pushes the idea of ​​him wanting to be more popular - heck, he even replaces Freddy in one of the endings. "ok but the arcade wasn't created by him" yes it's true but the name of that is visual storytelling, it's not literal, they are just translating Monty's feelings onto the screen without saying it out loud.
If Monty didn't really kill Bonnie what's the point of his storyline, let's be honest?
Pretty much every time Bonnie comes up it links back to Monty somehow. Monty's plush is in the tunnel after Bonnie's green room, his golden plush is hidden in Bonnie Bowl, he has Bonnie's glasses, Bonnie is falling above Monty's, etc...
Tumblr media
"okay but monty was never ment to be violent"
and your right!in "the storyteller"from the tales of pizzaplex it shows that monty start to became violent when the mimic virus strat to act on the robots and bonnie is even kinda mentioned in that story,so it was when he was still around- so its an strong possibility that bonnie was attacked by him when he was with his violent virus!
and for me the biggest final point of this story is the death of the montgomery gator itself:
Tumblr media
he was electrocuted by the glamrock bonnie neon sign while he was swimming in the water- he literally suffered karma for bonnie's death- sorry but this couldn't be more explicit to me, the fnaf franchise doesn't get more direct than that- she it was always super enigmatic and never gives a direct answer, just explicit implications through visual storytelling, and this is the purest fnaf I've ever seen.
"okay despite all this evidence it could be a red herring, it could have been someone else and they want to deceive us and it could be fazbear entretaiment framing monty" .... why?... why would they give all these connections and all these details just to be a red herring? That would be bad writing, and there are already enough of them. These characters are strongly connected at this point, only one other character is almost as connected to Bonnie as Monty and that is Freddy, but we know that Freddy loves Bonnie, right? Why would they do all this just to be someone else😭if it's someone else, Monty's whole construction means nothing- "it was Fazbear Entretaiment Framing Monty" they literally did the opposite, they created a made-up story to make it seem like all of this didn't happen-and even then that would be really dumb of Fazbear Entretaiment if that's the case like why would they put a robot that they themselves showed as a killer in the main BAND???
sorry if i came out as rude,but after all its just my opinon, monty DID Kill bonnie and he is cool as shit for that ngl- we need more characters that do evil shit for shits and laughs other than the main villain,william afton.-we already had enough misunderstood and manipulated characters i LIVE for evil lil shits.

Could you do a story with Scarlett where we are at like premier or something and an interviewer says something inappropriate or uncomfortable and she gets self conscious and anxious and we calm her down
Premiere Anxiety
Summary: Scarlett’s anxiety sparks up during the premiere of your new movie and you’re there to calm her down.
Warnings: anxiety, body image, hateful comments (kinda but not really), if more lmk
word count: 1,1k
A/N: First of all I’m so sorry it took me so long but I finally got something done and feel like its good enough to post. Second thanks so much for this hgreat request, I hope you like it anon! Also thank you @goldenempyrean for helping me out as I got stuck!
Tumblr media
not my gif :)
It was premiere day for the movie you starred in with your wife and actually one of the first premieres after lockdown because of Covid. Being amongst a lot of people for the first time in over a year was nerve wrecking already especially for Scarlett who got anxious pretty quickly in such an environment.
„Baby, are you sure I can wear that?“, Scarlett asked you for what felt like the thousandth time. You look at her, she was wearing a tight fitting dress and it looked amazing on her but you could understand her insecurity. She gave birth to your little daughter barely 5 months ago. However if you wouldn’t know there is no way someone would be able to tell.
The problem and probably the main reason for her insecurity was that the both of you had just announced the birth of your Baby girl. But you never failed to make her feel like she’s the most gorgeous woman on earth „Scar I’m more than sure, no one and I mean no one is gonna look as good as you in that dress. You look amazing!“. She just smiled and you kissed her lovingly before you had to leave.
The drive to the location she spent in your arms and you enjoyed every second of it, glad she was so relaxed and comfortable in your arms. As you reached the venue you couldn’t help but stare at her 90% of the time, your love for her could not be overlooked.
On the red carpet your ways separated for a short while for pictures and short interviews before you came together again for a bigger interview.
„Scarlett, Y/N it’s so nice to see you! How have you been? It’s been so long since we last saw you guys“, the interviewer asked cheery. I smiled at Scarlett and let my hand rest on the small of her back as she answered „We’ve been good. It feels good to get out again though“. She looked at me and I smiled bright before I said „Yeah it’s been a bit“.
„And you guys had a Baby… That’s exciting, a little girl“, she said and I just smiled lovingly at Scarlett. We didn’t announce the name yet but we said we would tell them if someone asked. „Yeah, our little princess Sierra“, I said and Scarlett grinned and I laid my arm around her pressing a soft kiss to her temple.
„Sierra? Thats cute how old is she now?“, the interviewer asked smiling. „She’s almost five months“, said Scarlett smiling brightly and the interviewer asked „Just 5 months and you’re already wearing such a dress, wow“. That’s when you started to get defensive already. Especially as you could feel Scarlett tense slightly.
„Yeah she looks amazing“, you said with a tone that told her to drop the topic but she ignored it completely. „So do you Y/N“, „Thank you“, you answered but the smile you gave her was forced. Scarlett could feel how tense you were so she gently took your hand in hers trying to calm you. Looking at her soft green eyes you understood her request and calmed down a little again.
She changed the topic for a few questions and you almost thought she got the memo but then the interviewer said „I’m sorry, I can’t get over the fact that you must have so much confidence for wearing such a tight dress“. You can feel Scarlett starting to play with you finger and tensing slightly, a sign you know is her anxiety starting to get worse. „That’s enough“, you said strictly but she just continued „It’s great to see you showing that people shouldn’t care about their outward appearance“.
That was it. You stopped giving a damn about the cameras filming you and the people watching. She really overstepped with that comment. „Excuse me… WHAT?“, you snapped, the protectiveness radiating off of you. Scarlett felt uncomfortable, clutching your hand and trying to hide behind you. Wanting nothing more than to get out of the public eye.
„It’s so bold of her, I certainly wouldn’t wear such a dress after giving birth“, she said and you glared at her trying to bite back all the things you wanted to yell at her right now. Scarlett was your priority and she just wanted to leave so you looked her up and down and spat „Well instead of her you’d never be able to pull it off anyway. I will call your management, this is unacceptable. We’re leaving, let’s go Scar!“.
Scarlett has become awfully quiet next to you and one look at her told you she was trying to keep it together. Holding onto her tightly you pull her away from that interview and into a „backstage“ area where you’d have some privacy. Red carpets made her anxious plus the fact that she was insecure about that dress before already and now all that caused her to almost have an anxiety attack.
Taking her face in your hands you said „Baby, look at me please. Breathe“. She looked up and you saw the tears building in her eyes so you took her in your arms and held her close. „Shh it’s okay Scarlett. Listen to my heart and breathe“. You gently stroke over her neck while she slowly calms down.
It took her a few moments but she calmed down and looked up. You caught the tear that fell down her face and dried it before resting your forehead on hers. „You, my love, look amazing. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I am honored to walk this red carpet with you“, you said and she smiled softly before she answered „Thank you Baby“.
Once she was ready you went back out again and walked the rest of the red carpet. You stayed by her side, not leaving her anymore. Only for single fotos you separated slightly but you made sure to always stay close to her and have her in your sight.
As you reached the end you pressed a soft kiss to her forehead, her eyes closing softly before you said „I’m so proud of you Baby. I love you“. „I love you more“, she said while opening her eyes. You just smiled and kissed her softly before going in.
At the end of the night Scarlett stood leaning in your arms ready to leave and said „I gotta say eventhough what happened today, I kinda missed it. But I miss our girls more and can’t wait to be home“. Holding her close, kissing the top of her head you mumble into her hair „Yeah me too“.

warnings: jealousy, thats really it.

--------------
America pushed around the food on her tray. Watching as the green beans turned into a mash mess. She looked up, watching the view of you and…him. As he tried to steal some of your mash potatoes while you swatted his hand away. Laughing, he tucked an arm around you to reach them.
She rolled her eyes, bringing them back down to focus on her own mash potatoes. She scooped them up with a spoon. Her face scrunched at the taste. She never got why you liked them so much. And she never understood why you liked Jeremy. Even his name was dumb. And it was a J one. That should give you a hint, right? No apparently not.
But apparently he was your ‘number 1 bestie.’ So she couldn’t do anything about him. Not even about the fact that he was completely in love with you but you were too blind to see that.
Well at least you weren’t bilnd enough to notice that she had liked you. America looked back up at you. Noticing the hand that was previously shooing Jeremy away was no longer occupied. She reached across the table to take it in hers. You glanced at her for a moment, a smile growing on your face. You turned back to Jeremy, rubbing your thumb across her knuckles. 
The topic had been brought up before by her. How Jeremy was blatantly flirting with you in front of her all the time. You dismissed it saying that even if that was true. No way would you reciprocate. It took a lot of coaxing from you but you got America to believe you. Stating that if it continues to happen let her know and you would tell him to knock it off.
She was tempting to tell you it was continuing to happen. But sweet oblivious you just couldn't recognize it.
The lunch bell rang making the group of you rise and go dump your trays. America waited for you to be done, standing with her arms crossed as you chatted a few final sentences to Jeremy.
“I’ll see you after school then, right? To work on the science project?” She overheard him ask. You nodded, agreeing to meet him out front. She furrowed her brows. What project? You didn’t tell her about any project. And tonight you were working on it? You said that the two of you would be going out for ice cream after school.
“What happened to ice cream?” she asked in a murmur as you approached her. Jeremy going in his own direction to a different class. Your eyes widened in realization.
“Oh, crap. I’m sorry I completely forgot. Jeremy and I were assigned a project in science earlier and it’s like thirty percent of our grade. I was just focused on getting it done as soon as possible so as to not turn it in late,” you explained. She bit her lip, nodding her head. 
America started walking down the hall. You furrowed your brows, jogging lightly to catch up. Slipping her hand yours, you bumped her shoulder lightly.
“What’s up? You were quiet during lunch and you’re being quiet now,” you asked. She rolled her eyes briefly.
“Sorry, I didn’t want to interrupt your and Jeremy’s conversation. You guys seemed pretty fixated on each other.” You paused in your step before pulling America to the side so as to not get in the other students' way.
“Is that what this is about?” you questioned, “Are you really worried about Jeremy still?” She was silent, shuffling her feet anxiously. You sighed, tipping her chin up to look at you. “I told you nothing is going on between me and him. He’s just a friend. I told you this.” America scoffed.
“Better tell him that, cause I don’t think he gets the memo with the amount of heart eyes he sends your way.” You opened your mouth to respond but she cut you off. “I know you said he’s just a friend, but the amount of times he’s flirted with you when I’m right next to you. And the fact you guys are going to be at his house, alone. I’m not even upset about the ice cream. It’s about what he's going to do when I’m not there,” she explained, taking both of your hands in hers. 
“He’s not going to do anything," you reassured her. “And if he does its not like I’m going to give him what he wants. I get he can be a little touchy and his words aren't always the best choices but there’s nothing behind it. Jeremy’s a flirty guy, it’s just what he does. I guess after so long I got used to it and just don’t really notice it.” You pulled her closer, resting your arms on her shoulders. “I’m sorry you feel this way, but America I swear you are the only one I’m into. No way am I gonna fall for Jeremy. I mean come on he has a J name, everyone knows that's a red flag.” America broke into a fit of giggles.
“That’s what I was thinking,” she replied. The two of you stood in a nearly empty hall, laughing to each other as her hands fell to your waist. Once everything was called down she rested her forehead on yours. “You promise?” she asked in a mumbled. You nodded.
“You’re the only one for me,” you stated, moving to kiss her cheek. However the bell rang just as you went. A teacher stepped out of his classroom, scanning the hall his eyes landed on the two of you. Taking in the close proximity the two of you were at.
“Really? Making out in the hallways. I thought that was left in the 90s,” he rolled his eyes, “Detention after school,” he stated pointing at the two of you before going back to his room.
You turned back to America, the two of you once again falling into a fit of giggles.
“Well, looks like I’m not going to be going to Jeremy’s after all,” you laughed. 
“Ice cream after detention?” America asked. You nodded.
“Only if we can convince Wong to sneak us out early. The shop closes at four.”

FAKE FIC TITLE!!!!!!!!
Roll me a 6 🎲
Roll me a 6 (Discontinued Draft)
SBI plays homebrew DND and borrower Tommy sucks at being a giant.
Word Count: 1594 words
CONTENT WARNING: zombies, thats it im p sure
(A/N: i wrote this a really long time ago. i think the moment this ask was sent, this is the one i wrote first until i went to write the other fake fic titles. i lost motivation and inspiration to finish it and i dont have enough knowledge about dnd mechanics and doodads so !!! have this instead, since i dont want it collecting dusts in my drafts :DD )
"Tommy, slow down!" 
"I caaan't! Look at me, I'm a big man! THE Big Man!" 
Fortunately for the twins, Tommy did stop running, proudly puffing his chest with his arms crossed. Wilbur gladly took shelter from the sun behind his younger brother's massive shadow, sweating profusely— though he doesn't know whether that was from the sun or from the fact that he struggled to catch up to Tommy. Maybe both.
The Phantom glanced over to his Piglin twin, who could be less bothered. More resistant to the sun’s deadly rays, Techno barely broke a sweat, preferring a slow stride and taking his time to carefully scout out their surroundings. If anything, he was supposed to be in the front of them rather than the back. He held the map, and he was more knowledgeable in adventuring for treasure. Wilbur was 100% sure Tommy didn’t know what he was doing.
“Tommy, slow down, you know Wilbur loses hunger faster if he’s always invisible. I think he has a worst appetite than you.” 
“WHAT? That’s not true!”
Tommy looked behind him, finally noticing that Wilbur took shelter in his shadow, away from the sun that reminded him of a vampire. Oh. Right. He was a phantom. If he can remember correctly, they were fine in the sun if they remained invisible, but being invisible for a long time makes Wilbur get even hungrier and Techno mentioned they have to save their limited supply of food. They agreed to keep moving and waste less daylight by having Wilbur shield himself through Tommy, but he guessed he was too excited for his first adventure and ran way too much for the phantom’s liking. “Right. Sorry, Wil.”
“Whatever, child, it’s fine.” Wilbur waved a hand, “It’s almost sunset anyway, we need some rest. Tech, where can we set up camp?"
"Uhhhh." Techno shuffled through his inventory for the map, and his eyes scanned for the perfect place for a camp. "We won't encounter a village for a long while, but there is…" He trailed off for a bit, moving closer to Wilbur so he'll be able to see where they're heading.
"There's a big clearing in the forest we're heading to, we can take night shifts to protect each other from mobs so we can all get some good sleep." Techno pointed to a forest labeled ‘Everglades Forest’, there was a noticeable empty patch of green surrounded by trees not far from where they stood. They could make it there before the sun fully sets and camp up for the night.
“Got it, lead the way. And Tommy, walk slower please, I don’t think I can take another run for today.” Wilbur pleads, gently patting Tommy’s knee when he crouched down to take a look at the map as well. “Not my fault you are so incredibly slow.” 
──────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹──────
The clearing was beautiful. After making a campfire, the brothers sat in a circle and drifted from conversation to conversation. Their topics shifted from food, to the past adventures Wilbur and Techno had together, and currently, to the first ever adventure the twins had. 
“No, it wasn’t the village raid one, was it? I remember our first adventure had to be the one with the tomb!”
“Nahh, It was the village. Remember when the village was asking for Phil’s help but he sent us because he thought we were old enough to do it?”
Wilbur and Techno went back and forth about what their first one actually was that even Tommy isn’t sure which side he should believe in. Oh, they were growing so old and forgetful… But it doesn’t matter because Big Man Tommy is here to be the best one out of the three of them! “Just tell me one already.” He whined, hands pulling out incredibly small blades of grass to fidget with. 
“Okay, Okay. We’ll just tell you about the tomb one, I think that was pretty cool. Cooler than the village raid.” Wilbur looked at Techno for their opinion.
“Yeah, ‘cause villagers getting their houses raided is pretty boring.” Techno sarcastically replied, but silently gestured for Wilbur to continue anyway.
The phantom only rolled his eyes in response, but begun his story about their supposed first adventure. “Alright, Phil told us about this mission that no one was taking because it was really dangerous or whatever, so me and Techno decided to sneak out at night to travel to this abandoned tomb and restore this uhh— this stolen artifact that was taken by bandits.”
“The artifact was something like.. The Totem of Undying, I think? It’s been rumored to give people an infinite amount of lives.” Wilbur waved his hands around as he told the story, and Tommy felt himself getting entranced by it. “Infinite? Have people tried stealing it before? How good were those bandits?”
“Well, some would say they were—” “Shh.” Techno cut him off, and Wilbur looked at his twin. When Wil gave him a questioning look, Techno whispered, “Can’t you guys hear it?”
Tommy looked around the clearing, trying to hear anything else besides the crackling of their fire and the rustling of the trees. No one dared to make a sound. There was a grumbling noise to their left, and in unison, their heads turned to the same direction. “Why does it sound like a zombie..?” Tommy asked.
“I forgot to mention… This forest is infested with zombies.” Techno nonchalantly said, taking his axe from his inventory. “Oh, and you just forgot to mention?” Tommy exclaimed, relaxed posture suddenly moving to stand up. A large group of zombies emerged from the darkness, their rotting skin and visible flesh and bones were a disgusting sight to see. The giant swore the air started to smell of decomposing flesh, twisting his stomach to the point where he could almost taste what he recently just ate.
“To be fair,” Techno started, running up to the zombies first. His moves were powerful, cold and calculating. Wilbur has mentioned before just how heavy the Axe of Peace was when he tried lifting it, yet now as Tommy watches Techno, it was a fast flurry of strikes— like the axe weighed absolutely nothing at all. “The map said this clearing was almost always safe.”
An arrow shot from below, and hit a zombie in the eye. ‘That had to be Wilbur’ Tommy thought as another shot fired through, this time with the strong smell of a poison-induced arrow. "Emphasis on the almost!" A disembodied, familiar voice yelled.
He wanted to help too. Tommy could just stomp them all out, but he had to look out for Tech and Wilbur. Techno, who was in the middle of the horde and Wilbur, who was invisible somewhere within the clearing. Tommy stood up, and tripped.
He tripped on zombie guts.
──────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹──────
“I’m sorry, WHAT?!” Tommy yelled.
They all let out a laugh. Phil pointed to the dice, “Sorry, mate. You rolled a one.”
“Is that not a good thing? It means I’m number one!” Tommy patted the Twenty-sided dice.
“That is literally the worst number you can get.” Techno laughed, a small fond smile on his face. 
They were playing a tabletop roleplaying game, with their own rules and their own made up characters and species. It was Tommy’s first time playing with them, so everyone was less strict on the rules and more so trying to let Tommy enjoy their family game.
After watching a few of their sessions within the walls of their home, Tommy didn’t understand their game, but he felt immersed seeing Phil make up a completely imaginary world, and seeing the twins follow and make it even more fun with their decisions. Maybe he got too immersed.
He wasn’t a giant. He was a borrower. 
Tommy moved into the house many months ago, and it was a rare occasion to watch the family play their fun story game. Phil was always busy with his job, and Techno and Wilbur with college, but whenever they had enough free time to spend with one another, this is one of things they would spend hours doing. There would be a couple of their friends to join in from time to time, but it would mostly be just the three of them.
“It’s not my fault the dice is super big, it’s hard to throw!” Tommy picked up the dice and held it close to him as evidence. “Oh my god, look at you holding the dice! You are so teeny!” Wilbur cooed teasingly, gently poking Tommy's side, to which the borrower responded with a smack. “Stop it! Phiilll.” He whined, dropping the dice and attempting to wrestle with Wilbur’s finger.
Phil chuckled, “Wil.” He spoke in a warning tone. Wilbur continued to coo at Tommy for awhile before stopping after ruffling his hair. Techno picked up the dice and rolled it around in his hand, “Well, if you want, we could roll the dice for you instead?” 
Tommy immediately agreed, finding Techno’s good luck with his dice throws enough to accept the offer in an instant. “Yeah, do that!”
“Why not let me roll the dice? I have great luck too.” Wilbur also offered, crossing his arms over his chest.
“Yeah, like you don’t roll six every single time in a game session before.” Tommy argued. The other two chimed in and agreed.
“Come on! My luck isn’t THAT bad.” Then Phil ushered them to calm down to continue their game, changing the subject so the adventure could continue without Wilbur and Tommy jumping into an argument.

since the epilogue is close to ending, here's some sketches of wip designs
this is very rambly so i'll add ID descriptions later, sorry. (its 4am for me rn)
Tumblr media
Frisk looks too older, they've only aged 2 years. both chara and asriel's designs here are SO beta and non refined. I think this was drawn even before Flowey came out -I wasn't sure how much of the trans aspect was going to come into play. I initially wanted the comic to end with Chara and Asriel reconciling after the Toriel-Asriel Airplane Call scene, but realized that there was too much unsaid between the two that needed to be hashed out and the epilogue had enough to cover already.
It was going to be a last minute "oh btw, since coming home Asriel is trans now, deal with it" but THANK GOD i didn't just sneak it in like that and explored the topic in the comic instead.
I forgot where this artwork was saved so I tried to draw it back from memory a few months later:
Tumblr media
Chara's form was starting to come together -i assume this was around the time that Chara got their boss monster form in the comic itself. I like that Frisk has a Bi flag shirt here -I should of gone with that! The cheeks are more square but ultimately I thought age 15 wouldn't allow for that much of a change. so yeah, this is what an adult frisk would look instead.
oh! for funsis: did you know i was originally going to have the other fallen humans be skeletons instead of different monsters?
Tumblr media
I thought it was too similar to insanelyadd's skeleton fallen kids. I actually am friends with Addy now, but then I had to message and be like "🥺is it ok if i also do this i swear i'm not copying" to which they were chill about. ultmatly i felt the designs were to Sans-like and didn't allow for much creativity. (also why tf does Hol have green instead of cyan colors what was wrong with my computer or me in 2018 lmao
Tumblr media
I always wanted to show the kids age and progress throughout the comic. oh my god the hair is SO anime here ouch! anyway I wanted Chara to really lean into the "prim and proper" role they give themself. I thought it was so cool to have them cut their hair short in the back and have long hair in the front. (wait. wait, thats what Chara does now in the epilogue. huh.)
Tumblr media
honestly??? i like "pissed off librarian" vibes this frisk has here. Also weird to see my Frisk without an afro!
Tumblr media
sadly no beta adult asriel designs. no idea why i never drew any then.
Here's me figuring out how Chara should have a monster form -here's proto boss monster chara, as you can see i planned out the red hair aspect early on enough that this was before the timeskip happened.
Tumblr media
um. anyway, pre-epilogue concept sketches. I think Raine had bird wings at this stage?? dang wild. Don't ask why Franky looks like a new yorker paper boy. Hol looks too much like a raggedy ann which is funny. Ursus... well, they probably won't look much different.
Tumblr media
Hol eye concept art. done before they were revealed in the comic itself. ..........less said about this the better
Tumblr media
And lastly, chara's boss monster design drawn right before they showed up. First one drawn <- left to right <- You can see I wanted Chara to have a hippy/punk design, but realized like, that jacket was going to be a binch to draw over and over. so i simplified it, and then was like, "ok this is TOO plain, i need SOME detail" and got very close to the final version.
alright since I know some people like color ref sheets, here
Tumblr media
Continue Arc full cast. Was SUPER annoying to scroll thru to find the right character lmao
Tumblr media
hol's prequel story color ref -actually changed the Berry's hair color last minute and never got around to updating the color sheet. was very annoying to hand-color pick from a previous page instead of using the ref :/ smh @/ me
Tumblr media
Baker's Trouble.
Tumblr media
OLDIE. From the Start Again? and Christmas sections of the tumblr version. God. Hol is so small. Asriel looks like a mess. Good lord.
Tumblr media
Cancelled Christmas Arc. Chara was supposed to meet up with Asriel on a boat offshore of Monsterland for Christmas, but turns out Asriel was using Chara as publicity. Except... not fully. He did want to meet up with Chara, but they get the wrong impression that Asriel was only doing this for image's sake. It'd explore how the public views Chara as an idolized figure and how Frisk plays into that too.
Anyway the story was too ambitious and I should of started this on December 1st instead of days before Christmas. Plus, I wasn't happy with how I started it and the vibes were off. I might have this as a side story in the redraw but idk
Tumblr media
Back to the Epilogue. I changed Asriel's dress just a little bit to improve the body shape silhouette (the dress is so plane its like she's wearing a towel! gah! I should have added SOME flair to that dress dang it!) anyway the dress is more... swooshy? swirly? and the teal ties up to the neck which works nicely with the heart locket and bow combo. Actually. Shit. Why didn't I just put the locket OVER the bow i'm so stupid that'd be so much easier-
If I could redo it, I'd make some changes...
Tumblr media
now here's the cousin and sib groups here. Flowey is actually a little TOO big and not up to scale which is funny hehe (also more blocky looking??? weird) In the Redraw version I'm modifying Raine's dress to have a sash and other details, this thing is TOO plain. Franky's Mad Scientist like outfit could of just been an actual labcoat and ideally, the fact that Franky wasn't at the party could of foreshadowed that they knew it was going to be reloaded.
(...Which, actually, Chara's surprise was a surprise for me as well. That was a impulsive idea that came to me when we were getting very close to meeting with Chara again. Thus I couldn't foreshadow it. Redraw WILL have better foreshadowing U_U;)
Tumblr media
ACTUALLY SCREW IT for the remainder of the epilogue, i made some changes I wanted to add detail and change some designs a tad -mainly to make the designs more distinct from each other and for story continuity. (AKA: Asriel and Papyrus are supposed to be the only "red scarf" wearers. Asriel's bowtie is knitted like a scarf. previously, hol and yun had red bows which made this match up less distinct. mew Mew's design was a little too similar to Sans' and Alphys and needed some changes.)
anyway i think thats all i can share now! thanks for reading and hope you guys keep following the redraw. I really really want a completed version of this story that's not missing holes. i want AFR to be complete and well, even with the epilogue ending, it won't be "done" for a long while. But thank you guys, it's been a journey!
If you hadn't guessed, I might be finishing the epilogue today (tomorrow for me, cause i'm going to bed in a few minutes). Depends on how much I manage to draw today, but yeah. Chara is going to the party, we'll get to say hi, close some loose ends and come to end. worst case scenario, i'll have to do a little comic to tie it off (like I did with the main storyline's ending) at a later date and this will be the end of the ask-able portion of the epilogue.

Your analysis is delicious and thank you for enabling my bitching. We are holding hands.
Your point about the samadhi fire is so right! Like if Red Son got it, it would have to be a completely different arc, everything would have to change. Unrelated but I think Mei, MK, and Red Son all simultaneously being foils of each other is very interesting
TBH I could go on for even more paragraphs about my many problems with how Mei's treated by the fandom so here's some petty complaints I left out of the first ask:
Her getting hypersexualised in a lot of fanart
Her struggles with the samadhi fire only getting used as angst-fuel for other characters and never for herself
Fans only ever addressing misogyny when it's about someone disliking a ship shes in.
She gets compared to Willow from TOH like a lot? I don't know why???
(this one is hyperspecific and very petty) Multiple Youtube vids about LMK that only bring up Mei to talk about how the ship her with Red Son (while making fun of other ships simultaneously for sooome reason...)
girl is canonically into MCR. thats not a complaint i just dont see people talk about it
and thats not even going into how the fandom treats female villains :P
Anyways Mei deserves a gun and LBD and Spider Queen deserve the world
Mei, MK, and Red Son all simultaneously being foils of each other is SUPER interesting. I just talked about Mei and MK as well as Mei and Red Son parallels, and like it SLAPS. I should delve into MK and Red Son parallels, but that's for another time.
On the topic of Mei being compared to Willow, I think it's because they're both green girl characters who are considered "tough"? It's a very vague archetype—but, I think fandom in general likes to put characters into these nebulous categories. Each character gets sanded down to like 3 base traits and everyone calls it good. It's genuinely maddening.
And personally, I don't really ship anyone in LMK (excluding Freenoodles), so the amount of ship art I see and the way ships predominate is very off-putting for me. I think that's mainly because none of the actual show really focuses on romantic relationships (one of it's virtues, I'm an MK is aroace truther), but to each their own. Shipping is super fun, and I totally get it. However, when it gets to the point where no other relationships/dynamics are really focused on, especially on a show so focused on friendship, it just feels off. It feels even MORE off when the only time you discuss the main female lead is to ship her with Red Son.
AND LOL THE FEMALE VILLAINS. MY POOR GIRLS. I don't think I've ever come across a post about Spider Queen (though her henchmans get a lot of love), and really it's a shame. That girl was doomed by the narrative, and BOY was she doomed by the narrative with MK. Granted she's been dead for 2 seasons, but I STILL see Sandy and Huntsman art, so idk. It honestly feels like the misogyny.
Lady Bone Demon and I are best friends and I love her so much. Truly one of the most villains of all time. "No staff and no backup—so, your plan is to fist fight a child?" OH MY GOD SHE'S SO ICONIC. That AND she has fucked up parallels to MK (sorry my boy foils just about every character in this show, he's a reflection), what is there not to love?
She TRIED to go about helping the world the "right" way, attempting to lead someone with real power to be better (as shown in the 3x11 flashback, but on god that scene parallels her whole relationship with spider queen), and IT DIDN'T WORK. So then she tried to "help" the world by starting with a clean slate, and that didn't work. And then you realize that she was doomed by the narrative just as much as anyone else. I'm fucking obsessed with her. Seriously, the "to pain" scene has been in my head for 5 straight months. I'll never stop yelling about it.
I've been listening to Lady Hell by Dirt Poor Robins on repeat thinking about LBD, and I can't help but rotate her in my mind. She captivates me.

i really like your autistic!mickey hcs and i support it but I've been working on my first gallavich fic and i accidentally made ian autistic coded?
in the au, he's an actor/host of a kid's show and you learn that he did a charity photoshoot with "the neurodivergent youth project" (made up resource program) and he's generally knowledgeable about neurodivergency since he works with all sorts of kids because i just wanted to establish that he's a generally supportive/understanding person, but then you look at some of the traits I gave him and it's just like !!!
he's always stimming and he describes his thoughts as 'bubbling over', which results in him rambling a lot, especially when specific topics like his show or his favorite things come up. he develops a habit of repeating things other people say, and there's also a whole conversation in chapter five of the fic where he explains how he relies on routines and detailed plans.
the best part is that mickey doesn't question these traits and is supportive of all of it, which shocks ian because there are very few others in his life that don't find some of it annoying. and as he gets to know mickey, these specific traits become more evident. accidental unmasking allegory ig??
i know that there is more to autism and that it shows in other ways but i just think it's funny I did this mostly on accident. i inserted a moment in chapter five where it's established that these traits 'landed Ian in a doctor's office at the age of seventeen', so I might use that to build up a subplot where it's eventually revealed that he was diagnosed in his late teen years
i didn't mean for this to be so long i'm so so sorry, i just thought that maybe you'd find this occurrence funny
anon you really said: *shoots your blorbo with the autisticification beam"
at first my illiterate ass thought you meant mickey was the host of a childrens show and my brain started making up a scenario where his parole officer gets him a job working at for a channel like PBS bc they hear he has a kid and at first mickeys like "great awesome i have to herd kids on a tv set AND i hae to cover my tattoos" but he eventually realized hes good with kids and enjoys going to the kids' green room and reading stories/talking to them and then i reread your ask and realized you said IAN not MICKEY
i know nothing about BD but i see no reason why ian couldnt have both BD and autism. the tism is a spectrum so theres no one way to look or act autistic
ian would LOVE infodumping on mickey and mickey is never one to feign interest in something thats not his special interest or hyperfixations, but he just really likes watching ian get excited about something and be so smart about a certain topic. i can definitely see this ian unable to sit still and constantly needing to jiggle his leg or do something with his hands. also consider mickey embracing all of ians quirks bc hes like "oh cool finally someone who's like me" ⁉️ and ians LOVESSSS seeing mickey stim and infodump and wearing earplugs in public and having echolalia HARDCORE (my personal headcanon) and ians like!!!!!!! theres other adults just like me and this one also happens to be very cute and hot and fun to be around and easy to talk to!!!! a4a gallavich is chicken soul for my soul

Warning: eyestrain, LONG post (please please tumblr don’t ruin the quality ;u;), implied abuse, death/harm, fire, teeth..? And glitchy effect, please look elsewhere if these make you uncomfy.
Tumblr media
HEYA ITS ME AGAIN AND I SPENT ALMOST 5 HOURS STRAIGHT MAKING THIS :DDDDD
SO! This is a little thingy I did based off a song called “Neighborhood #2 (Laika)” by Arcade Fire! Now, earlier I made a post saying how this song really reminded me of my Duck interpretation regarding both their past and future- now this is mostly based off the meaning/references of this song, now I won’t get into too much detail, especially since one of the references is EXTREMELY dark and sad SO I’ll summarize by saying the themes I decided to focus on here! First being the topic of running away from a… not so great life.. And second being a death that was MEANT to happen- (both themes were discovered by the music video and also by some research-) NOW I chose these themes since they.. directly correlate with my Duck (both being that their childhood was.. not great.. and by the fact they LITERALLY DIE IN THE SERIES-) hence why this song reminds me of them so much <3 So yeah! Now i wanted to protray so much but alas i was limited to only a canvas- (some day i will make an animatic of this.. some day <33) BUT i did try representing a few things here!! First off at the top of the canvas we have Malicia, i put here here mostly cuz if the lyrics but also bc she was the first person who influenced Robin’s long line of misfortune. Alongside that we have younger Robin, to go along with Malicia.. Now before you ask their feathers are brown here because this is before they had started dying their feathers green and the reason they had wings was because birds thought it was cool AND they also recently have been thinking about that one legend abt Icarus flying too close to the sun with his wax wings and ended up falling into the ocean because of this- (listen birds has had a LOT on their mind lately leave me alone-) AJYWAYS so they also have some odd red lines surrounding them as you can see- now these are supposed to be spider lilies (which, if you dont know why they are important here, search their meaning) NOW these were supposed to be more detailed but I literally couldn’t make them more detailed for it is late and birds has been drawing this for hours- SO yeah!! Next we see both the feathers which are falling from Robin’s wings and the stem of one of the spider lilies which reside nearby current Robin who now bears their classic green feathers. Now i don’t have much to say here about them in this portion of the thingy BUT i like to think this is them pre June 19th, this also is supposed to correlate slightly with what is below them.. BUT i like to think THIS is them upon realizing Roy is a bad person, this is them upon loosing their friend Daisy (which may or may not have been referenced by the flowers covering their eyes- 👀), this is them upon the time that.. for once in all their time knowing eachother… they and red weren’t on great terms- So, their distrust for Roy continues to the next shot but, instead, here they are not just distrustful of Roy… but also.. they fear him here- Alongside that this is where the stem of the spider lily ends, where their lost feathers transform into teeth which, note, belong to the monster can- (and also notice, it seems as if the teeth are about to bite onto Robin… gee, wonder what thats referencing lol-) and then Roys hands are now surrounding the duck as they look with pure fear.. this is where the canvas ends… and… well… considering the themes and foreshadowing already present- im sure you know what this likely means for them-
Now thats it for the main description as to what birds was thinking upon making this!! NOW uh this all was inspired by the song mentioned previously and yeah!! (Also small thing i wanna mention but i personally like to believe Robins brother, Rodney, is the one singing here, out of greif and anger, but thats just my personal silly thought hehe- >:3) BUT i am so SO happy with how this came out!! There are a few things i messed up BUT I DONT CARE THIS MAKES ME FEEL ACCOMPLISHED AND I HOPE YOU GUYS LIKED THIS!! Seriously i hope yall thought it was as cool as i thought it was :3 Anywho, goodbye and i hope yall liked this!! :DD
(Also side note: not to be annoying but please reblog this- i spent literal hours making this and im really happy with how this came out and i would appreciate it if you could reblog this- you don’t have to BUT i would still appreciate it!!! Ty <333 -sincerely, a tired Duck)

HEY YOU! YEAH, YOU! do you have something to talk about that youre super excited for? NOWS YOUR CHANCE!!
aka i want to listen to something and youtube isnt giving me any video essays so i would like to hear about friendsdays :D
ur free to save this ask for another day OR answer it with whatevers on your mind! :D
hellll yeahhhh
i love talking about the thoughts bumpin around my noggin
i just had my first week of classes so im mostly thinkin of those and the 2 im excited about are my rethinking meuseums class and a film class on chinese culture and history.
so i took this museum class cus 1) i had to fulfill credits, and 2) i LOVE meuseums. ive traveled a lot, and ive visited a ton of meusums, from the acropolis meuseum in athens, greece, to the jolly green giant museum next to the jolly green giant statue in minnesota. i love reading little plauqes and learning about stuff, especially if its hands on or art.
but this class is super cool because 1) we get field trips!!! i thought my field trip days were over, but now i get to go to museums for free durring class!! 2) we get to talk about colonialism and how that influences how our museums currently operate. from their layout, lighting, showcases, accessibility, intractivity, and other ways the art, artififacts, knowledge, and creators are presented (or not presented).
ive always been intrested in history and shown how events have caused domino effects and colonialism has a huge effect on the world we live in, and meuseums is a specific instance of that that ive been exposed to, and i really want to learn how to unlearn the ideas that has imposed on me, and show me the choices they are making that influence my opinions without me even knowing. (for example my home art meuseum, the art institute, has all the european classic art and modern art on the top floor, while the asian, african, and photography (which has a large collection showcasing black, queer, and womans issues) are on the first floor and basement. and how the work on the top floor is very well light, while the other floors have dimmer lighting.) didn't even think about that, and I've been in the art institute over half a dozen times the past 2 years!
also a ton of other people in my class are also passionate about this stuff so its nice to know im not gonna be the only one who cares about this class :D
also!!! ive met someone who likes the ghoul boys! i was reading my unsolved book during break and they struck up a conversation about them with me! so thats super fun :)
my exploring chinese culture via film class is gonna be amazing too becuase i know thats a huge blindspot i have in knowing about the world and i really want to change that. so i get to explore and learn about that while also watching films. im hoping this class isnt too hard work wise (watching documentaries takes up alot of time i dont exactly have) but the professor seems to be understanding that we have our major classes to worry about. (also! she gave us snacks for chinese new year :D)
the class is discussion based (the class time, luckily i dont really have to do discussions online). and the people in my class have really good thoughts and ideas! we have some film majors so they give insight on how some stuff is shot, and some literature majors are really good at unpacking what was said and have a ton of interesting angles about the inner complexities between the family in the documentary.
i honestly was nervous i was gonna dominate the conversation becuase i had alot of ideas and thoughts to share, but a ton of other people spoke up so it was nice to have all of us sharing opinions and takeaways.
so that was my two classes im taking for my liberal arts education. they arent for my major or minor but i appreciate them so much becuase i love learning about a ton of different topics, and i probably wont be able to be in an environment like this again so im making the most of it!! im hoping to get into learning about queer history soon, but because this is an arts school, that class fills up super quickly. picking my history class after that is gonna be stressful because theres so many good options 😰 womans history? the development of cities?? us history?? if i didn't have my ux minor, id think about minoring in history. There's so much to learn, lmao

Hey there! I’m not sure if this is a weird way of asking this, but I was wondering if you are BIPOC? I’m black and I absolutely adore your writing, always feels very inclusive in the way you describe your main characters :) Whether it’s conscious or not, I really appreciate it!!!!
Hey!! <3 Not a weird way of asking at all. I'm so glad to hear you say this cause I am white as hell and I really do my best to make my characters as inclusive as possible! I have a picrew of myself included in something I have coming up, and now I feel like my cartoon appearance is gonna be a jumpscare for my followers HAHA but maybe thats a good thing??
Back to the topic tho, cause it's something i've thought a lot about as someone who writes reader insert fics - I'll put all my thoughts under the cut to save peoples dashes
It seems like blushing and describing the ways joel touches the readers hair, or how its styled, is where a lot of people get nailed on characters seeming white coded specifically, so
I've made a conscious effort to use language that can apply to all hair types - even if they all do have medium-long hair to get the dramatic effect of Joel's actions - like hair being swept/brushed aside, tucked behind her ear, clipped up w/ pieces left out. he might "play" with the MCs hair but he doesnt typically "run his fingers through" it like she does with his, cause i know that's annoying or even impossible when you have wavy or curly hair. I generally talk about hair pieces (which could mean anything, could be lock of straight hair, a wave, a curl, a braid, a loc, or anything) or her entire hair length, instead of "strands". I always think to myself like okay, does this make sense for different hair types? and if i can picture it in my head then i green light it, haha. i have a fic coming up where the MCs hair is styled as "the little pieces in the front of your hair, twisted and clipped back while the rest fell over your shoulders" and i think that can apply to all long hair as well
i never describe the MC as blushing in terms of how it looks (blushing pink/red), i more so describe her being flustered or feeling a blush/flush creeping up cause there's a very physiological aspect to that. As for someone looking flushed, it's my nice and dainty way of saying they look SWEATY hahaha
eye color wise, i do compare the MCs eyes to crystals and stones from joel's POV, and that's because there are crystals/stones/gemstones of all diff colors, so it's just the sort of sparkle in her eyes when she looks at joel that i'm referring to
In terms of other types of inclusivity, i think the one thing people get nailed on is their MCs seeming small/skinny/petite, like skinny little reader who's 5 ft tall. my readers are p much always described as being curvy (i sometimes tag "reader has hella tits and ass" haha), and i think that can mean a wide range of body types. I'm 5'8 and curvy+muscular irl so my MCs are, in my head, on the taller and thicker side, whatever that means to the reader. I pretty much always mention something like ass jiggle, ass/thigh recoil, joel grabbing or squeezing ass/hips/flesh etc, all of which i think imply that the MC is thick to any degree.
another thing is that many of my fics have a size kink aspect to them, and the emphasis here is not on the MC being small but rather on Joel being VERY big, broad and strong. many many of my smut scenes include the MC being on top and joel moving/tossing/flipping her around, and thats him being strong and physically overwhelming. i also describe his hands are big, his shoulders being broad etc to emphasize that HE is big, not that the MC is small. i am not small, dainty or petite in any way irl so i dont think im even capable of writing MCs like that haha
this was a lot of text, sorry - if you have any questions feel free to lmk but this is basically my whole thought process!
thank you so much for reading <3 <3 <3

I kind of have this theory that rina is too complex of a ship for a lot of the young audience to understand. It’s not even that complex imo but seems like a lot of the fans have no idea what their watching even tho it seems pretty obvious. Most of the people who who ship rina tend to be a little older I’ve noticed, have watched a lot of older teen dramas and see the story that’s being told as opposed to the hit you in your face ships like portwell and especially rini.
i have also noticed that rinas tend to be slightly older fans which i find really curious. ofc the main reason as to why this is, is probably what you mentioned already: older fans who have watched the long af late 90s/early 00s teen dramas that tim takes a lot of inspo from. another reason might have to do with the "rina being too complex" but i also agree with you on it not being actually that complex. i think rina is just a bad timing situation that, without meaning to, has hurt both parties at some point. i think that when ur younger its harder to see shades of grey so maybe seeing gina so hurt in s2 led people to go ricky=bad and therefore wanting nothing to do with rina (on that topic i'd love to hear why some people don't like ricky because he has been my favourite since like s1e2, he won my heart so quickly. idk i just see a lot of people saying that ricky treated her so badly and i can, at most, pinpoint a few moments in which it was a bit :( but i wouldn't even label them as ricky being shitty.)
((((on the topic of teen dramas overall. i think there's been a shift on what relationship dynamics are accepted?? nowadays there's more talk about green flags and basically, using taylor swift's the way i loved you terminology, choosing the "you look beautiful tonight" over the "screaming and fighting" guy. to give an example, i don't think chuck and blair or damon and elena would fly as much these days as they did back in the 2000s. idk i feel like before the norm was choosing the love interest that brought the most drama and now its a bit more debated. not that ricky even comes close to either of these two guys or that his relationship with gina would even be on the side of the "screaming and fighting" but it is a bumpier road compared to the very rose coloured one presented with pw. the point is that i think there's been a shift in audience values that don't align that well with a more early 00s teen drama storyline))))
then, on audiences preferring the more on your face ships, i mean that's almost always been the case. in defense of both rini and portwell, they did have build up and a reason to exist so i can see why people like them and enjoy them. i, also, understand their frustration with their ships falling apart (i think rinis are slightly less frustrated because they did have a good two season to set up why they were going to fall apart. pw, on the other hand, has had 5 episode which is kinda sad rlly) but i do agree with you that there's a bit of ignoring the story being told. and i mean the story in general, not a relationship story. these characters are more than their ships and the general story of the show is also more than the ships. the ships just play a role here. they keep things moving. but i think thats my bone to pick with the fandom, i guess.
