seeing my (teasing-is-my-love-language) dad joking around with my (sigh-he's-doing-it-again) mom like "you have good taste in colors and details, no wonder you married a handsome man :)" "yes, handsome, whatever you say..." is making me think of a similar dynamic between you and al haitham, happily married (therefore he is 100% trusting and had learnt & memorized all of your habits with twice the devotion he put into mastering those 20+ languages he's now fluent in), and you two just bantering because he's being insufferable again:
"ugh you're so annoying! just because you're my husband, you're taunting me on purpose! aren't you afraid i'll get smitten by other nicer men or something?!"
"hah. like anyone else could top my attractiveness level in your eyes."
"............ i hate it when you're right."
"i am always right, darling."
"i hate you."
"strange for you to marry the man you hate, but i won't judge. your quirks have always fascinated me greatly, just like your beauty."
"did you just insult me or praise me?"
"should i give you more time to fully process my words and decide on a conclusion?"
"........... i want a-"
"-kiss? gladly. come here."

Okay but if there was a general Lilia Tsum AND NRC Lilia Tsum, arriving at the same time to twisted wonderland.
How much money does Crowley need to repair what the would break in a weird bouncy yet deadly fight?
Al tho it be fun Yuu comes in, already a partner to Lilia, and both Tsum are just SUDDENLY ANGELS
[it would be funny if it was a continuation of this and this]
Hello Camerastuff 🌺💕🌸
Ahhh I see we are back to destroying NRC again? And causing trouble for the headmaster?? Good ☺️, as it should be 💞💞
I think we don’t give enough credit to the chaos that tsums tsums would cause 😂💞
Let alone two versions of our dearest Lilia Vanrouge.
By all means, let them cause chaos if our dear headmaster gets a headache from it. 🥰 After all, he deserves it 🫶
The partner of Lilia being the one to calm both NRC and General Tsums down is adorable and cute.
Because it shows how taken Lilia is with you, does it not?
In part, the tsum is a reflection of their counterpart. So a General and NRC tsum acting like angels around you? Oh what pull you have dearest 💞💞
But can you imagine the whiplash this brings? Everyone is staring as you dote on these two. Even Lilia is taken aback by it.
Yes, he understands his NRC tsum liking towards you. But even his General version?
My, will wonders ever cease?
Now you know what would be funny? If the tsums banded together against Lilia. 🤣🤣
Purposely taking all your attention and love away from him. If Jade’s own tsum can betray him, so can Lilia’s. 🫶🫶
(Now Lilia wants to punt two tsums to the sky 😂)
Lilia is nothing if not greedy for your love and that’s reflected in the tsums as well. A fae who didn’t know how to love or that he could love? Once he’s had it in his hand? He’s not loosing to anyone. Not even fate can tear it from his hands.
He’s lost loved ones before and was close to loosing them again. So suffice to say…he’s not going down without a fight.
Please sooth some ruffled feathers my dear and be sure to give them all some love. 🫶💞
…Watch each tsum steal a kiss from you before they head home and our Lilia just freezes. 😂

Must reads:
i’d like the sun to set with you by @chuuyasoup (T, 8.8k)
What changes is this:
Geto Suguru does not say, how arrogant. He does not say, kill me if you want, there’s meaning in that too. He does not look at Gojo Satoru with unfamiliar indifference and he does not assume that he won’t understand.
Or, Suguru extends an offer on that day in Shinjuku. Satoru accepts it.
愛のある場所; river of light (that brings me to you) by cosmichorrour (T, 66k)
A lesson in love is a lesson in swimming. Except for Suguru, it's getting dropped into the deep end with the tide licking at his neck, no kickboard or life preserver keeping him afloat.
(Or: This is how Satoru finds the ocean.)
Caesura by cielelyse (M, 85.5k)
The first time they meet, Suguru and Satoru do not like each other. Arrogant, cocky, insufferable, they think. Despite the smirks Shoko gives Suguru, or the sighs Yaga gives Satoru, they do not like each other.
Until a mission changes that.
paper cuts by HamsterQinghua (T, 36k)
“Hey,” he starts. “I think we got off on the wrong foot.” Understatement of the century. “My name’s Suguru Geto, what’s yours?” It’s a question asked purely for formalities, and he’s sure Gojo knows that, but he’s still unprepared for the other’s answer.
“Your mom,” Gojo drawls out, and Suguru realizes he’s starting to see why people want this kid dead.
or, Suguru is a contract killer. his final target is Satoru Gojo. this isn't a problem until it is.
The Traveller's Song by No_Ir (E, 23k)
When it comes, the death of summer is vapid and quiet. It tastes like stale water and smells like memories gone bad in the heat. Nothing mourns it and the air is speckled with bits of seawater that cling to the dampness on the back of his neck.
Crickets chirp throughout the night and the bed is too warm to sleep in, so he buries his face into pillows that smell like dust and salt and ignores the stabbing behind his eyes till he can feel the irritating warmth of another day on his back.
I miss the sea, he thinks, staring at the familiar outline of the window, palm resting on the friend-shaped dent on his bed. Exhaustion drapes itself over his shoulders and sweat beads like pearls at the roots of his hair.
I miss the sea like I miss my friend
Punishment For A Monster by @duckiemimi (T, 8.1k)
“Yeah! Oh, my name is Gojo Satoru, by the way.” He hides the hurt behind his teeth, his grin wide and friendly. He thought he’d only have to introduce himself once to someone he called his best friend. It’s strange to repeat words from more than a decade ago to the same person. “You can call me Satoru.” He hopes he calls him Satoru.
“I’m Geto,” he says back. You were Suguru to me, Gojo thinks. “Nice to meet you, Satoru.”
“Nice to meet you, too.” He leans against the wall beside him, tries to look nonchalant as he does. “So, do you come here often?”
Geto thinks Gojo is just a lonely guy who wants friends. Gojo just wants to know if he remembers him, even just a little bit.
bang bang, kiss kiss by bunkuto (E, 12.7k)
Suguru brings men home and Satoru wonders if, judging by the pangs in his chest and the sudden overwhelming urge to punt these hookups into the sun, he’s homophobic. They figure things out slowly.
Puppet On A String by @killjoyproductions (E, 6.8k)
Huh,” he muses. “Are you… saving yourself for marriage?”
“Nope.”
“Are you asexual?”
Satoru shakes his head. “I’m not asexual, just a virgin.”
Golden hour by damiselart (E, 38.6k)
the one in which Satoru doesn't run away at sunrise and has an existential crisis over morning sex.
love is all I ever yearned for; not this affection carved in stone by getoswrongs (juyang) (T, 15k)
“You’re a menace,” Suguru mutters.
“You do this all the time? Making clay dicks before you turn them into bowls and vases? And it took some loser dude you met at age 27 for you to realize you like dick?”
--
Suguru is a potter and Satoru is in love.
smile like brass by @chuuyasoup (T, 15k)
Upon arriving at the scene, it’s hard to say whether turning up just five minutes earlier would have made much of a difference.
As it stands, there is a lot of blood. Too much blood to be explained away, and too many strong residuals to be traced back to anyone other than Satoru.
Or, Suguru arrives at the Time Vessel Association hideout a little too late. This changes things.

I love and respect angsty 🍖🍃 takes, tragedy is delicious and theirs deserved more time and exploration, I want to drown myself in their tragedy and other people’s takes on it
But at the same time, when a bitch (me) starts writing them, it’s going to be as the ghostly realm’s genderfluid Gomez and Morticia Addams, SQX got punted back down to being a mortal which means they can become a ghost, the Black Water arc was not their breakup but was in fact necessary for SQX and their supreme calamity spouse to be happily married, sometimes He Xuan will be in the middle of kissing and caressing their way up SQX’s bare leg only to get yanked away by Hua Cheng kicking in the door like “YOU STILL OWE ME MONEY AND I AM INVOKING A FAVOR” while He Xuan squawks and hisses like an incredibly upset cat and SQX pouts and fumes and goes into Xie Lian’s private communication array to complain to him about his husband being an obnoxious cockblock, etc. etc. etc.
I apologize for nothing, I’m just living my 🍖🍃 truth

22 Mattdrai please
Thank you anon! I hope you enjoy :)
22. things you said after it was over
Last year, it was Matthew's precious Flames that got punted out of the playoffs. To add insult to injury, it was at the hands of the Oilers. Which is why, that same night, he sent Leon a slew of drunken texts from some dingy downtown bar because he was not in the mood to even look at Leon, let alone go home with him.
Those texts included one declaring they were breaking up, which Leon didn't take to heart because not even five minutes later he got another message assuring him that no they were not actually breaking up Matthew was just going to hate him for the next 48 hours. That, Leon could handle.
Hell, he'd probably have gone for 72 hours. Minimum. And he had to rest his ankle anyways, if he wanted any chance of seeing ice-time the next game. He'd be there when Matthew was ready.
This year, it's the Oilers who go out first.
Leon just barely keeps it together through the post-game media frenzy. He doesn't want to look at the cameras, barely keeps the shudder from his voice, which is little more than a whimper because he just can’t breathe. Hunkered down with his hood up because it feels safe, the only barrier between him and a world that just crushed his dream. Again.
It's not like he can be mad at Matthew, because he fucked off to Florida, a whole other division, so Leon has no excuse for not answering any of his texts, or the six separate times Matthew tried to call after Vegas knocked Edmonton on it's ass.
Only once Leon's back home for the night, drained and exhausted and dazed, refusing to go out with Connor and the guys because he really, really doesn't want to exist right now, does he look at his phone.
Cuddling Bowie in his arms, he sits on the couch and scrolls through the avalanche of texts from Matthew. The last one catches him off guard, and he stares at it, reading it over and over.
come down and see me. please.
And... yeah. Through the doom and gloom of another lost season, he misses Matthew. Matthew, who's season isn't done. Matthew, who doesn't need Leon, but wants him. Wants him to be there.
So Leon books a flight to Florida, and starts packing.
The next day he goes in early for clear-out, says his goodbyes, and drives right to the airport. After an almost nine hour flight--including a layover in Denver that's great for his legs but not his morale--he lands in Fort Lauderdale just as the sun hits the horizon.
Matthew's waiting for him at Arrivals, dressed in board shorts and sandals and button-down shirt, sunglasses and that damn bucket hat. He smiles when he sees Leon, waves, and the simplicity of it chips away at the heavy stone sitting on Leon's chest. He always breathes better when he's with Matthew.
"What, not even a sign?" Leon calls out once he's in earshot. "I thought you were excited to see me?"
Matthew slaps the brim of Leon's hat down over his eyes. "Next time I'll bring confetti canons and air horns."
And fuck, just hearing Matthew's voice again without a phone between them lifts a weight off Leon's shoulders. It almost makes the defeat worth it.
His hands are too empty suddenly. He wants to hold Matthew's, wrap him up in his arms, touch him anywhere and everywhere, inside and out. Replenish old memories, make new ones. Never let go again.
Matthew gets the jump on him once they're in his car, dragging Leon over the center console by his shirt and into a sloppy kiss. It's all tongue and teeth, scratchy beard and plush lips, and as always, it's perfect. This too, aches like a phantom pain when they're on opposite ends of the continent. Phone sex and a bit of imagination with his own hand can't totally replace the sex, but it definitely can't replace the sweetness of a kiss.
When he pulls back, Matthew looks like he's going to immediately drop the one thing Leon really doesn't want to hear--the dreaded I'm sorry about what happened--so he jumps first.
"I missed you."
If Matthew knows he's purposely being cut off, he doesn't show it. He bumps their foreheads together and closes his eyes, like he's just soaking Leon in.
"Missed you too."
As the dusk fades to night, they drive, and drive, and drive. Not to Matthew's house, that's immediately obvious, but Leon doesn't ask where they're going. He slumps in the passenger's seat, leg tucked up against the dashboard, and goes between watching palm trees and glistening waterfront, to watching Matthew.
He tries not to think about hockey, but it was a long and restless flight, and Matthew's got a stupid little air freshener shaped like skates, and the playoffs aren't actually over, so of course the first thing Leon says to break the silence is, "When's your next game?"
Matthew taps his fingers on the steering wheel in time with the music playing on the radio. "Thursday. Against Carolina. We're flying out the day after tomorrow."
"Hmm. So what are we doing with all that time?"
"Fucking, hopefully." Matthew glances sidelong at him, tongue poking between his teeth. "At least for part of it. I still have practice, and you need to relax."
"What am I doing while you're gone?"
"Waiting for me to come back? You can stay at my place. Come to the games when we're at home. My family's going to drop in too, so, you know, be prepared for that."
Won't be Leon's first tangle with the Tkachuks. Pretty sure he's an honorary member of the family at this point, even if he still struggles to keep up with the energy they bring to a room. Not that he minds.
The rest of the drive is quiet enough that Leon dozes off. When he wakes up, groggy with jet lag, it's dark aside from the street lights, and Matthew is pulling into a parking lot up from a small, deserted beach. Leon doesn't know which one; there's so many here. He follows Matthew out of the car and down the promenade, down the stone steps to the sand, where grains slip between his toes and the sound of the waves soothes the storm in his own head.
Which is exactly why Matthew brought him here; somewhere secluded, somewhere that can't hurt him. Because Leon loves the ocean, and Matthew loves him.
He follows Matthew along the beach, going nowhere in particular. Matthew walks purposefully nonetheless, head high and shoulders back, warm breeze tugging at his clothes and ruffling his curls. Something Leon loves to do too, and can't wait to do again.
This place looks good on Matthew. If only it weren't so far away.
"I'm glad you came," Matthew says over his shoulder, slowing until Leon catches up. "I wasn't sure you would."
Why not? The year-round heat and the beaches and the seemingly endless bars are a nice change of pace. But more importantly, this is where Matthew is. Of course he was going to come.
"Beats sitting around re-watching the second round wondering what we could have done differently," Leon says instead, because it's true, and because he doesn't need to tell Matthew what he already knows.
"Hey, that's not a bad thing. But it's not what you need right now." Matthew swallows, takes an uneven breath like he's the one getting choked up. "I saw your interview yesterday. After the game. Leon, you know I didn't call you down here for me, right? Don't get me wrong, I'd fucking love for you to be here watching us play, but the way you sounded... I was worried you'd end up sitting around your house all alone and depressed."
"I'm not depressed. And I wasn't going to. I was planning on going back home."
"Great, so you can mope around in Germany instead."
"I wouldn't have been alone."
"Much as I love Bowie, he doesn't count, babe."
Leon stops walking, staring at the sand until Matthew stops too, turning back and right into Leon's space to block the wind, which has taken on a chill.
"Leon--"
"Our season's over, Matthew," he mutters. "I really thought we could... I didn't want it to end here."
Matthew sighs, but his eyes are sympathetic. "Yeah. I know. But you're not done. There's always next year. And a bunch more after that."
The same platitudes, every time. It's empty words. Leon knows it. Matthew knows it. But what else is there to say? You fall, you get back up, you try again. Rinse and repeat. That's what this league is.
In any other circumstance, Matthew would probably make some crack about the Oilers and how assuming you guys can actually get your shit together, you may have a chance, but it's, you know, fucking Edmonton, so...
But he's being kind for Leon's sake. Because Matthew's forked tongue turns to silk when he's off the ice. He's so gentle at times like this, handling Leon with kid gloves like he thinks he'll shatter if he so much as breathes too hard.
"I'm just getting tired of it always being 'next year'," Leon admits easily, because it is easy with Matthew. "Every time we come close, we get knocked down. It feels like shit. I'm fucking tired of it."
Every time he climbs the ladder, he tastes victory. The higher the wrung, the sweeter it is. And every time he falls, there's a tiny part of him that worries he'll never get his feet off the ground again.
"Hey." Matthew cups his cheek, forcing Leon to look him in the eye, into pale blues that dance and shine even in the dark. "You're not giving up on me, are you?"
The question catches him so off guard Leon jerks like he's been struck.
"What? No. Fuck no. The hell kind of question is that?"
Quitting has never even crossed his mind. He didn't come into this league thinking it would be easy. He's worked his ass off to get where he is, and sure he's got his own liabilities to work through, but he'll keep going until something gives out.
"Good. Just making sure." Matthew looks so damn smug, but Leon's learned to find that endearing too. "Only place left to go is up, right?"
Right. Leon said something like that to Matthew, once. You win or you lose. Only two options. If you lose, then all you can do next time is win. If you win, you keep winning until you make it to the top. Anger into action, failure into fortune.
Matthew's hand slips down Leon's forearm, searching for his hand, but stops when Leon flinches, and brushes a callused thumb back and forth over the bruise there.
"This from Pietrangelo?"
Leon huffs. "Maniac, yeah. It's fine. It wasn't as bad as it looked."
"Want me to rough him up a little if I see him down the line? My treat. Actually, it'd be my pleasure."
There's that blinding confidence. The Matthew that's going to ensure they blow right past Carolina, through Dallas or Vegas, and raise the Cup. Who's dumb enough to argue with him?
"If you want." Leon's almost too tired to smile, but he tries anyways.
And Matthew softens too, cheeks pinked and teeth showing between his parted lips. It's hard to think back to a time when he would never look at Leon like this; like he's so fucking in love with him it's physically impossible to hide it. Leon can only imagine how he looks to Matthew.
"I'll make you another deal while we're at it," Matthew says.
"A deal or a promise?" Leon knows what's coming, because he knows Matthew. His heart still jumps up into his throat.
"I'll win the Cup for you."
They've learned to say I love you in a million different ways. Somehow, they keep finding new ones.
It's so stupid. Matthew's not arrogant. But then again, he seems to be playing a game no one else is, in a way no one else can. He oozes confidence and bleeds charisma, possesses the kind of karma that can change destinies.
If anyone could actually say it, and do it, it's Matthew. Damn if Leon doesn't believe it, too.
So all he has to do is smile, nod, and say, "Okay."
"Just to be clear," Matthew says, "I'm not doing it for the Oilers. I'm doing it for you. And for me and the Cats, obviously. Maybe... maybe a little more for me and the Cats. No offence, babe."
Leon snorts. "It's fine. It's yours. You earned it."
"So have you." Damn right he has. "Shit just sucks sometimes."
Leon scoffs and rolls his eyes to whatever unseeing deity keeps fucking him over. But he's done wallowing. He's got something so much better standing right in front of him.
"You said this was a deal." Leon tugs him closer, one hand cupping the back of Matthew's head, pressing the words against his mouth. "So what do you want from me?"
Matthew smiles under his lips. "I just want you to be there to see it."

Thank God someone else who isn’t caught up in shipping Loki and Mobius or Loki and Sylvie you earned a follow
Here's the thing that I want to ask the legion of Lokius shippers who were disappointed by the series or, worse yet, accuse it of queerbaiting.
What was the show about?
I don't mean 'what did you want the show to be about' but what was the show actually about. What story did it seek to tell?
I know, and I suspect you do as well.
It was about Loki coming to terms with who he was, what he had done, and, in a very important quote, "what sort of god I want to be." In the beginning, Loki looked to his father, his brother, and his mother for definition, and when they didn't give him the identity he wanted, he reacted violently. He worked with Thanos the Mad Titan to get the power to force others to love him, and we all saw how that ended. He stooped to being a sycophant to the Grandmaster. None of them were ever able to make him feel the way he wanted to feel.
Then he encounters the TVA, including Mobius and Sylvie, and sees that there are infinite Lokis; suddenly, defining himself seems not only unimportant but foolish. He is who he is. Then he meets He Who Remains, and he begins to see that -- and this is a crucial line when he shouts it at the Enchantress -- there are things bigger than his own identity.
The second season of the show and his attempt to forge himself a new home within the TVA, with the people he's met and befriended there, and begins to paradoxically establish his own sense of self-worth through his relationships with them. Not just one of them, but all of them. It wasn't about a specific relationship; it was about all of them.
Loki and Sylvie kissed ONCE in 12 episodes, and then she punted him through a time door, so the point wasn't the culmination of their romance, but the possibility of seeing himself as worthy of regard in the guise of seeing another Loki, and confronting his violent and selfish instincts by confronting the same instincts in a version of himself he loved. Mobius started out confronting Loki with the enormity of his failures and trying to manipulate him into assisting the TVA and evolved into a close friendship when they're willing to work with and believe in each other in a way Loki had never achieved before, not even with Thor.
Loki was never going to go on dates or settle down in glorious domesticity with jet-skis and stepsons. He was always going to achieve his 'glorious purpose': finding something greater than himself to value and to sacrifice for. To find something worthy of guarding.
Shipping is fun, but in this show? It was extraneous. A plot line with a romantic focus simply would not fit in with the themes with which the show grappled. So, take a deep breath, write your Lokius fanfiction, but dial it down a notch on your screams of betrayal and injustice. You look foolish.

it confuses the hell out of me how Tumblr out of all places harbors most negativity toward BMF. situation it's much better now though, but the early period and before the show aired was nothing but spite an vitriol filling the tags. on the bright side, pretty much every other platform is head over heels for BMF, especially Reddit. they're usually critical af but BMF seems to be universally praised. anyways, I'm beyond excited for the remaining eps, and here's hoping for a strong finale so this show becomes one of the often recommended ones 🙏
On BMF getting more negativity on Tumblr than other places:
I thiiiiink it's because Tumblr has an especially high North American/European user base, and that's where the majority of the Krist hate seems to come from. What people still point to (the IG story, the rape filter joke, the "I don't want to watch Singto specifically kiss other men because this is fanservice on a variety TV show that people are going to quote out of context as me saying I don't like watching men kiss" thing) are either debunked or happened years ago, but when interfans arrived in droves in 2020, they kicked up old news like it was brand new and passed around hearsay like it was fact.
I mean, even I've learned new things since I made my post and thread about Krist back in September. For one, GMM didn't arrange his press conference in 2020 to address the issues. Krist did. Even though he'd already apologized multiple times over the years for things he never repeated, he still wanted to take accountability because of the amount of attention interfans were bringing to it. Part of that press conference was Krist even saying he'd never make excuses for what he's done and that he'll apologize as long as he's asked to.
The first(?) apology Krist made for the IG story was long, long ago, one I can't even find a translation for, that's how long ago it was. But Krist's long-time fans said that someone did translate it, but their English wasn't strong, so interfans picked apart their translation as if Krist's apology was lacking. (It's like how some interfans criticized Win in Between Us for being forceful because the subtitles originally said "kiss me" when what he actually said in Thai was "can I kiss you?" Interfans who don't speak Thai just make assumptions based on translations sometimes and it's part of my villain origin story.) Again, I don't have the apology to hand, but apparently one part of it was Krist saying something like, "I responded without thinking of how it would look. As a Y actor, I don't have those kinds of bigoted thoughts. This is my home, and I'm very proud of and supportive of the community that's raised me and cared for me," and the fan translation apparently paraphrased all of that into something like, "As a BL actor, of course I'm not homophobic." So like. Even when he's apologized, interfans have historically found a way to throw rocks at him anyway, so it gets exhausting to see people casually calling him homophobic because Melanie in Minnesota saw a screenshot of an IG story on Twitter and then made a list of six problematic BL actors you should definitely avoid because they skin babies and punt puppies into volcanoes.
On BMF being great:
I'm so excited for the last three episodes. \:D/
I'm so proud of Krist and Gawin for the work they've done up until now. It's wild to think about the amount of information they had to keep in mind as they were filming. Because, like, series already film out of order, but they also had to keep in mind different timelines of the same characters out of order. The fact that you can see not only Kawi's growth but everyone else's as well so fluidly and consistently over the episodes so far says a great deal about the quality of the production, I think. The directing, the writing, the acting. All of it is really, truly phenomenal.
Aaahhhh why is it only Tuesday. :'(
ANYWAY thank you, Anon! Sorry for the rant about Krist. I'm just tired of seeing him get so much hate for years on end when he's such a loving and giving person who's been a vocal queer ally since SOTUS. Not just during Pride, either. He really has been deeply misconstrued by interfans at large, and I just hope the people who've made up their minds about hating him (and the ones who've made their hate so public they're too stubborn to admit they misread him) will just learn to ignore him and stop tormenting him. He's already suffered panic attacks and depression as a result of the constant abuse, and it's repulsive that anyone thinks that's acceptable to do.

WIP Wednesday - To the Shore, An Interlude
Tumblr media
it's that time again, WIP wednesay. i think i'm going to blow the friday publishing deadline for the next chapter. instead of writing last night, i started the vanguard questline with sarah. i'm naughty.
but, i do have a sneak peek of the forthcoming chapter!
tagging the coemancer crew, @atonalginger, @silurisanguine, @eridanidreams, @fangbangerghoul, @aro-pancake, @aislingdmdt, @toxiclizardwrites, @staticpallour, and whoever else i'm missing. there really needs to be some sort of macro or group function.
if you want to read the fic from the beginning, check it out on ao3.
On with the sneak peek!
Hwa was taken aback for a moment, as the idea of marriage hadn’t even occurred to her. She was just getting used to the idea of actually being romantically involved with someone. She stared into space for a moment, her face completely blank and barely breathing, then became animated again and responded, “I don’t know. I’m honestly not thinking that far ahead.”
“But, maybe?”
“Cora, this is all very new to both your dad and me.” Hwa wasn’t sure how much she wanted to explain to the girl about her past, or even if she wanted to at all, and how that affected everything she did. Jane Austen did not prepare Cora to understand complex trauma and how that affects relationships, especially romantic ones. Maybe I should get her The Little Matchgirl or Anne of Green Gables, Hwa thought to herself. So, instead she punted, “Why don’t you ask your dad?”
Indefatigable Cora responded, “Ok, I will!”
Hwa was surprised at how amenable Cora was to the idea of her and Sam getting married. “Would you be OK if we did?” she asked cautiously.
“Hrm,” the girl put her hand under her chin in the same gesture Hwa had seen Sam do a thousand times, “I think so? You make Dad really happy, like the happiest I’ve ever seen him. We love traveling with you. And, I like you a lot. So, I think it would be ok.”
Hwa smiled and felt relieved. She hadn’t realized how much Cora’s approval meant to her until she heard the girl give it. “He wanted me to talk to you about this, actually, which is why I came to talk to you.”
Cora gave a knowing smirk, “He asked you to ask me? He always does stuff like that.”
Hwa narrowed her eyes, “Does he, now? He has other people ask you the hard questions?”
“Yep. He hates doing it himself. Like when we moved to New Atlantis. He had Sarah tell me instead of him. He had just started working for Constellation at the time, and we moved from Akila,” she explained. “I don’t know if you’ve noticed,” Cora leaned closer to Hwa and lowered her voice, “he kinda hates conflict. Which is funny since he seems to get into fights a lot.”
“How do you know about that?” Hwa asked.
“I’ve heard his stories,” Cora shrugged. “He thinks that if I’m not in the room, I can’t hear,” she scoffed. “Anyway, I’ve known you and dad were together for awhile,” Cora continued. “I mean, it’s pretty obvious.”
Hwa chuckled, “That’s what I told him, but he didn’t believe me. I think he thinks you’re still a little kid.”
Cora moaned and shook her head, “Yeah, can you talk to him about that? I’m not eight anymore,” she said in an aggrieved tone. “If I’m old enough to be a co-captain, I’m old enough to notice when my dad is dating,” and rolled her eyes as only a twelve year old can.
“Trust me, I’ve tried. I think he’s in denial,” Hwa said wryly.
“Denial, not just a river in Egypt. I read that in a book, somewhere. But, yes, I’m OK with you and dad dating. You have my blessing.” Cora ended with a magnanimous tone.
“Thank you, that means everything to me.”
Cora reached over to give Hwa a hug, but stopped. “Dad said you don’t like to be touched, but I want to give you a hug. Is that OK?”
“Hugs from you are always OK,” and she reached for the girl and wrapped her in her arms. Hwa wanted more than anything to kiss the top of her head as she’d seen Sam do a thousand times, but she refrained. Cora let go and sat back. “He still gets to decide on whether I can teach you to hack better, though,” Hwa admonished.
“That’s not fair,” Cora grumbled.

I have a little bit of a tsams hot take that probably won't go into the main tags.
Monty's character has really gone downhill since he got his own show and left Tsams.
And I know Davis voices the character, but since Monty has left Tsams, and been split between writers between LAES, TSAMS and MGAFS...
He is so mixed.
LAES: Sweet, if a little brash. Cute, the supportive boyfriend. A bit of an asshole to Lunar, but they get along alright.
TSAMS: Don't acknowledge his existence unless they need something or he's paired with Earth. He's just... there. For all intents and purposes. Does not have the same relationship he had with Moon or the other Celestial Siblings before. And the void of where he left is filled by Solar. And I love Solar, but they seem to forget (in Moon's case) or refuse to acknowledge all the help he did for them up till the point Lunar exploded.
MAFS: Honestly. The worst version of himself. This Monty... Abuses his friends for no good reason, lies to his girlfriend for no good reason, hurts children for no good reason.
And yes, this can all be faucets that make up a character if that's what they're trying to do by showing different sides of him... but like... It's so absolutely disjointed, I do not know how his character will be in every given episode.
Example...
Monty recently was given a Female Body (this Monty is gender Fluid) that was commissioned by his Deceased Father (go with it) that Foxy found out, and gave to him as a gift. Foxy is the one who got it all set up when the package arrived for him.
(honestly the way they did those episodes is masterfully well done. Super respectful and relatable)
They loved it and were overwhelmed with emotion, spent a few days in his new body...
First by spending the day with their son Vegeta animatronic (go with it) although reluctantly,
and then another emotional episode in LAES where he comes out to Earth, and Earth accepts them in their new body...
So... What does Monty do to Foxy for helping him set up this body? You think he would thank Foxy for bringing this to his attention.
He turns him into a Fox plushie, and punts him around the pizzaplex, physically abusing him for laughs.
He legit physically abused him and I know why he did this. Monty was turned into a real life gator awhile back, but that was not Foxy's fault and it was an accident made by Puppet.
Monty only tortured Foxy so they could be "brothers but closer" I get Monty got lonely after Lunar blew up, but he does not fuckin need to abuse people to be his friends. He always feels like he does.
......You see the dichotomy here.
It's hard to get a grasp on Monty's character between episodes and shows.
In LAES, he's a misguided sweetheart. In Tsams, he exists when he needs to. In MAFS... He's a lying sack of shit who abuses and lies to his friends and girlfriend in order to not feel so insecure.
I do like Monty as a character across all three shows, but because his motivation and who he is tends to change so much between episodes.
To the point I remember that Monty lied to his girlfriend about being sick so he could spend time with her in MAFS.... and then either the same day or a few days after, in his next appearance in LAES... Earth and Monty have their first kiss and it's super romantic and sweet....
(by the way, neither here nor there... The "fake sick" episode LEGIT triggered me because I got horrid flashbacks to my Exes and I could barely stomach the episode and I will never watch it again)
It's like they want to have their cake and eat it to, with Monty being a kinda "Always Sunny in Philadelphia" character in one show.... and then... Just the perfect Hallmark Boyfriend in another show.
Just my opinion. I like Monty and everything. I just kinda wish his motivations and behavior was consistent so I would get a good grasp on what he's doing... Other then just "he's an abusive asshole for the lols don't take it seriously" and then turn around and have characters like Earth or Foxy in other shows or even the very next episode excuse that horrid behavior.
I don't remember this being a problem when he was Old Moon's "Go-to" guy in Tsams. It was usually just a money problem and Monty trying to impress Moon.
Just my opinion tho.

“Bold of you to assume either of them are willing to go to bed alone after Daniel is turned” precisely!!! There’s no way they’re letting go of each other now. Specially after Daniel moves into Trinity Gate, he obviously has a room of his own and has probably had it for years, perfectly decorated and neat in case he ever decided to drop by. So when they finally reunite he’s like “I mean it’s nice and all but why tf would I want a room of my own? Scoot over mf” and ever since that night Daniel’s been the unmovable pilar of the Armand bed pile. If you want to cuddle Armand you’ll have to cuddle Daniel Molloy and you will like it (they all do tbf after all he’s the one with the PhD in kissing and snuggling dead things). Also the proposal headcanons I’m deceased 🥹 Armandaniel shotgun Vegas wedding fic WHEN 😭 every single one of these is gold and I’ll cherish them forever tysm xoxo DA ♥️♥️
Dungeon anon 🥹
Exactly! Everyone has their 'own' room in Trinity Gate. That place has more bedrooms than a hotel, even Armand is hard pressed to remember how many are down in the basements. But Daniel's room is more craft room and than bedroom, and sometimes when the world is too much he goes in there to space out and be by himself. As far as sleeping goes you're totally right. The one and only time Daniel passed out in 'his' bed was when Armand interrupted him crafting, and things got handsy and well- neither of them made it back to Armand's bedroom by sunrise.
"the PhD in kissing and snuggling dead things" this is so accurate, I die. Sometimes Lestat shows up and tries to wedge himself in between them to be middle spoon, just because he enjoys being a pain in the ass (and he knows Daniel will humor him for at least fifteen minutes). But he's always punted back over to his side in the end. Too sharp of elbows, he's too warm, Daniel wants his man back.
I also like to imagine that after Daniel is turned and everyone is getting along at Trinity Gate they end up back in Vegas again. And like Ross and Rachel on Friends these ex-lovers-turned-back-to-lovers-again get shitfaced feeding on some drunks and well-
It happens again. Chapel of Love, 24 hours. It's not Elvis but a Dolly Parton impersonator that does the deed for them. Even Armand is clearly off his face in the photos on his phone. It's fun, it's silly, it's like replaying their past.
Except the next evening when they've sobered up Louis points out that same sex marriage is legal now, so this time their shenanigans are officially real. That's a folded up marriage certificate in Daniel's pants pocket, not a souvenir.
And that's how Daniel Molloy made an honest man of the most desired vampire in existence. The line to be Armand's secondary husband or wife is that way, folks. Daniel got there first ♥

This is an RP blog for the DoL AU of my OCs Edin and Esmee Koizumi! Run by @degrees-of-fuck the thing the myth the absentee.
TW for weird quasi-incestuous bullshit in general as well as creepy and self destructive behaviour / TW parental pseudocest under the cut. TW morgan basically. It's not anywhere else so that one can be skipped over.
Pronouns:
Esmee: She/Her ||| Edin: He with people they don't trust, They with people they do. (They pref.)
Major canon character relationship under cut for useful info just in case, but any and all interactions are welcome!
Not necessary reading, but it's here and might inspire some interactions idk.
SYDNEY: Sydney and the twins were Sunday School Buddies growing up - and Sydney was, I think, the first person the twins felt comfortable actually talking to after being left in doltown. They're still friends now, but they've never been able to hang out as much as they'd like. I think Sydney is as concerned with Esmee's recent changes in demeanor as Edin is.
BAILEY: Oh, Bailey, Bailey, Bailey... Bailey's kinda all they have at this point lol. Thing-like-family wise anyway. Edin constantly clamors to keep Bailey in a good mood so they won't be hurt while they're spending most of their time at the orphanage. I think Bailey wants to fucking punt them. Esmee hates Bailey, but wants their Attention and proof that she Exists to them, in some way.
LEIGHTON: OH BOY. They both haaaaaate Leighton. Leighton was Esmee's first kiss and kind of kickstarted her downward spiral a bit. As petty revenge for how uncomfortable Leighton makes her, she has taken to acting like the two of them are a MARRIED COUPLE. And is extremely annoying with it. Edin naturally despises Leighton for all this, paired with the Sydney stuff, but is also too terrified of them to act out or say much. Sometimes, Edin goes to detention in Esmee's place on the sneaky. This doesn't go well for them. Also in game, the same instance where Leighton took her first kiss, Esmee somehow managed to make Leighton cum in their pants by doing? Nothing? I wasn't even trying to get the achievement it just happened. My theory is either magic cum spell, or Leighton enjoys the sound of her sobs so much they just climaxed on the spot.
WHITNEY: Whitney probably bullies Edin relentlessly, though not necessarily sexually. They're just a sad nerd that's fun to push around. This makes the whole wanting to bang their twin sister thing awkward. As for Whitney and Esmee, they get into fights a LOT. I think even when they're dating, it's a pretty deranged dynamic. (Not affectionless tho <3 I did make that comic where Whitney takes psychic damage over Esmee's Demented Torture Porn Only Fans lmao) They both suck so so much. ... OH YEAH thing that happened/happens in game that's fun to reference: Esmee lost her oral virginity ingame to transguy Whitney's Strap but already had S mouth skill somehow, so her very first time sucking dick, she made him cum so hard he CRIED. In front of Leighton. the game didn't acknowledge it but it described him as Sobbing. She also somehow manages to make them cum in their pants Constantly in game it's so so funny. Use this info how you will. ((Based on this, the Leighton thing + at LEAST one other insane incident, my friends and I have started joking abt her having a fucking Cum Spell))
AVERY: Avery initially went for Esmee (dances, flirts, lets him hit it) but then Esmee proceeded to be her irritating, scene causing, threat to humanity self, so they went for her clone instead. Edin probably isn't a favourite of Avery's since they stutter a lot and are terrified of sex, but they ARE cute, easily manipulated and have their funny little music thing. Now Esmee pops Avery's tires and films them and is generally making a special effort to ruin their life.
BRIAR: Edin doesn't know who Briar is or what Esmee's main job is. All they know is that she constantly comes back in the wee hours, exhausted and looking like a MESS. They hate this. Esmee works for Briar most nights when she's not off treasure-hunting. One of the few people she actually takes semi-seriously, I think. She's a good dancer, soaks up horrendous damage like nobody's business and loves attention, but thus far has been stubborn about keeping her technical virginity.
MORGAN: Um. Esmee uh. So after being abandoned by her parents, the whole 'being relentlessly pursued by a violent and possessive maniac that claims her to be their daughter and refuses to let her go' thing she encountered while in the sewers kind of. Scratched a certain itch in Esmee. Yeah.
KYLAR: LOL Esmee and Kylar are uh. Allies I guess. I wouldn't say friends necessarily, but allies. Esmee helps Kylar with the creepshots and the intel gathering and general wingmannery in exchange for various demented favours. Edin used to feel bad for Kylar and wanted to talk to them, but these days they have a petty grudge against them. Same obsessive crush :/)

i have. some thoughts i wanna dump out about aini actually and if i do it on twitter my friend WHO STILL HASN'T STARTED THE GAME will see it and then i'll scream because i've done a fantastic job of not spoiling anything for her SO ANYWAY ANI THOUGHTS TIME. ALSO this isn't everything i just wanna get the loudest thoughts out
i'll be honest i wasn't expecting to like tama much but she ended up being one of my favorites actually. funny little ai-ball so silly and actually such a sweetheart. and she supports the lgbtq. icon
RYUKI i am sooooooooo normal about him. sosososososo SO normal. i started playing and when it got to his pov i really was like the "oh he's just a little guy! oh he's a bit fucked up actually" meme and just. gently holding him. uchikoshi dumped all the trauma he could on this man just to see how much it would take to completely break him i swear. also i kept making fun of him and his so obvious crush on date but also i completely understood because i too love pathetic men. which i'll be honest i was not expecting him to. actually have a thing for date. gay rights!
speaking of date, all i am saying is: i understand where ryuki is coming from. i want to kiss him actually. pathetic man. why are you so hot with an eyepatch.
mizuki all grown up! i loved her interactions with aiba and boss, they are just so good hsjejf.
ALSO i honestly? really liked just boss's casual mention that she has a daughter (bibi) in throwaway lines and just! i didn't think anything of it at the time but god damn uchikoshi you mastermind
mmmmmmmmm one thing i'm really Not Fond Of is kizuna and lien's relationship like. i think if lien didn't literally hit on her the moment he saw her and LITERALLY FOLLOWED HER to pressure her into a relationship, and if kizuna was not 18 AT THE TIME, i'd be at least a little okay with it? individually i think they're pretty good characters and i really do like their arcs but their relationship just ruins it for me. i was REALLY hoping they wouldn't go that way, ESPECIALLY with kizuna shooting down his advances initially but i'm clearly asking for too much from a spike chunsoft game. same goes for gen and amame but to a lesser extent because 1 that remains unrequited (or at least i think it does. i think amame just sees gen as a father figure of sorts) and 2 the two don't eat up screenstime for a focus on a romantic relationship and therefore i can simply Look Away. I Do Not See. also mizuki wouldn't encourage that who brainwashed her into thinking it's okay
SPEAKING OF, i actually did not expect amame to be a major character in the game (if that was shown in a trailer then i am a clown bc i watched like. the initial teaser and the reveal trailer and that's it) and i especially didn't expect to like her as much as i did. i loved how creepy her somniums were AND how the answers to the questions in second one as mizuki were the same as the ones in the first as ryuki like. sorta foreshadowing her whole story? ALSO SHE STRAIGHT UP MURDERED URU I HONESTLY DIDN'T EXPECT THAT. all i have left to say is god damn faye mata is a good va. also the gen and amame route nearly made me cry. i did in fact have tears welling up.
i want to punt chikara into the ocean. that's all
OH ALSO the masked woman/bibi's somnium was obnoxious tbh. i got so fuckin frustrated with it. tho idk if i just got lucky or what but somehow not looking at chikara made him? not notice me as much? i have no fuckin clue. anyway
speaking of somniums, tokiko's was super creepy but like. in a different way than amame's. you know what i mean. the only thing i didn't like about it was the ringing sound in the soundtrack. and how slowly you move, especially when you're swimming to the nirvana initiative for the last mental lock. agony.
the explosion route hurt me in ways i cannot describe. i was semi-livemessaging my friend bits and pieces of my playthrough in the most spoiler free way i could and. i'm just putting these here and letting them speak for me
Tumblr media
ALSO I WANNA SHARE ryuki taking a bullet for date and seemingly dying IN HIS ARMS NO LESS made me almost cry AGAIN. THIS GAME BROKE ME EMOTIONALLY THREE TIMES. i genuinely thought he was dead too and i did not know how to feel. and as funny as date straight up acting like a cat with his head on hitomi's lap was, the way he reacts when mizuki asks him about ryuki just. ow?
i'm not saying i lowkey ship date and ryuki but i lowkey ship date and ryuki
on a lighter note, kizuna breaking out a gatling gun and screaming "come get some, motherfuckers" made me laugh like. way harder than it probably should've. i saved it on my switch because it was too funny not to.
ALSO the whole thing with the true flowchart confused me at first but after thinking it over and getting it explained a bit, it makes a lot more sense. especially since there are two mizukis and the whole thing with aiba being on a secret mission, and also the fact mizuki didn't question date being alive when he saved her from tearer in the abandoned warehouse.
tearer's somnium was literally just a walking zero escape reference and i was living. i didn't properly finish all the puzzles in one room because the first two digits for the password were 9 and i went "999 moment" and got it right. and laughed hysterically. i think the music for those rooms was taken straight from ZE too but idk for sure. i wouldn't be surprised tho
as much as i Don't Like moma being a massive creep in this game, the bits with the vochaloco were pretty funny to me. i hope iris's va had fun recording those lines because hearing iris say fuck is great.
mama :) that's it that's the thought i just love mama.
i think we deserved to see/hear marco personally. there are concepts of a like. genderbent aiba in the dream album (i don't remember which somnium) and i know it sounds basic and lazy of me but i'm pretending that's what he looks like.
i've been typing for like two hours lmao but anyway my conclusion in short is the game has a few problems but overall i had a great time with it. also ryuki is a fruit. that's all

about my cringefail wolship
some more thoughts on cocowedja since i had a lot of work meetings today and that’s what i’m thinking about 90% of the time when i’m supposed to be paying attention in work meetings
Tumblr media
i don’t know how or when it started. actually that is a lie i know exactly how and when it started it was that ARR quest in coerthas after the waking sands massacre where you have to rescue wedge under a bridge and he bitches about being cold and hungry and afraid and my brain just went
Tumblr media
and so did coconeja’s and that was the moment he fell in love just a little bit; and unfortunately for him he’s really only gotten worse since then
it’s definitely 100% unrequited tho on account of me not being able to invest emotionally in a ship unless everyone involved is miserable but check it: a) coconeja’s low self-esteem will not allow him to believe anyone could actually be into him in that way; there’s nothing really special about him aside from the echo/blessing of light which is a thing that he considers “happened to him” not so much a thing that he deserves to have or has “earned” in any way b) he also sees it as a burden that he carries and does not want to inflict on others. and he’s especially cognizant of how that kind of pressure would affect someone like wedge who, while not as infantilized now as he was in ARR (i have thoughts on this but i do find it funny actually so i let it slide) still is not the kind of guy who handles stress very well lol and coconeja is also all too aware of how being involved with the warrior of light in any capacity essentially paints a target on your back given THE EXACT SITUATION HE WAS SO AFRAID OF HAS ALREADY HAPPENED when omega quite literally blew up his spot honestly i could talk forever about that alone and how that shook him real bad, and he’s still hasn’t really confronted how it messed with him - like he went to a real dark place those few days waiting to see if biggs and wedge would be ok and he really just refuses to engage with those feelings in any capacity now that it’s over. it’s a struggle for him to not resent omega tho even now; knowing all that he knows it’s still an internal struggle not to punt the little bastard into the sea on sight. c) somehow, against all logic and reason, wedge remains totally oblivious to coconeja’s feelings (even though everyone else can tell, much to their exasperation, because coconeja thinks he’s being real on the sly about it but he really, really isn’t) and is still into tataru. and even if points a and b weren’t the insurmountable hurdles that they are he still would never risk their friendship like that by confessing in the first place - and they are really good friends; wedge is probably his second best friend in the whole world (his first best friend being flag of course which is fine because wedge’s first best friend is biggs so it’s all copacetic). even if coconeja weren’t down so bad his heart needs rezoning for a subbasement they’d still be close - they get along well, have the same sense of humor and values, are around the same age and are both kind of huge loser dorks in their own way. they’re both dog people.
so he tells himself that the way things are is fine, and he’s happy just so long as he can be there by wedge’s side and look out for him - that’s enough!! it has to be. like so what if the constant longing is wearing his gay little lalafell heart down into a shriveled little stump; it doesn’t matter. so long as they can be friends, and coconeja can make sure he’s safe and happy always and listen to him dork out about engineering stuff or in turn have someone to vent to who understands imposter syndrome and all the while he’s free to daydream about holding hands or first kisses or fun dates to all the exotic places in eorzea or an alternate universe where coconeja is the coolest and suavest mfer ever and everything he does is super impressive (and he can definitely do a backflip without landing on his face - 10 backflips even!! in sunglasses!!) and he is the kind of person he thinks wedge could actually fall in love with instead of being well, the him that he actually is.
and that will definitely be a fine way to cope forever and is certainly NOT unfair to wedge who is his own person that deserves agency over his own feelings and situation it’s not weird let’s not call it weird here look at all these daydream gposes i did aren’t they the most adorable wolship you’ve ever seen!!! i keep these in a folder called “the shame bucket” like any normal healthy person would :)

OK TOH THOUGHTS let’s go (these are just in order of the episodes progression btw)
Spoilers for Clouds on the horizon below
-look at the collector being a silly little guy!! Love them fr fr
-“what if it’s all chaaaanged? What if YOU changed??” Dude
-“you can barely keep your human shape anymore!” DUDE
-ok so at the very least we know that they aren’t gonna make a new grimwalker while Hunter is still around
-but also Belos’ utter lack of care about him makes me :(
-Yeah Belos free the collector, I don’t think they’re one you want to break a promise of :)
-“you need to have more faith in pinky swears >:(“ the collector grows on me more and more every episode I swear
-I could go on a whole rant about why the shift from their initially just kinda silly behaviour (in my opinion) to truly childlike nature is what both warmed me up to them and made me very scared for him
-but that’s for another post
-KIKI GOT FUCKING DEMOTED LMAO
-I’m gonna punt her
-hidden Blight kids what they doing
-“Blights always uphold their end of the deal” FUCK you
-oh hang on so Odalia talks about “reconsidering her deal” with Alador and immediately moves into talking about how the kids should get more involved, does that mean that Alador has been convincing Odalia not to shove them into business work? I hope so
-HE LOOKS SO DISTRESSED OH NO
-I must say I am enjoying Alador’s gradual redemption. I like that he hasn’t been forgiven right away, reasonably so, but is working to be better I think that’s just a very good way to go about his character and I’m very happy about it
-ok scene change to sum up fuck Odalia I’m gonna crime her
-Dude I want to give King a hug so bad
-LUZ HAS A LITTLE PONYTAIL
-Eber is real funny lookin’ I love them

-why the FUCK does Odalia’s hair move like that
-Kiki looks so pathetic it’s incredible
-they are hiding :)
-AWE NO LET KING HELP
-THE COLLECTOR IS IN KING’S HEAD THATS PROBABLY NOT GOOD
-I do NOT like how even the collector HIMSELF is doubtful of Belos’ integrity I am so prepared for him to betray the collector (never planned on freeing them in the first place maybe?) and the collector to go NUTS
-maybe that’s how we get collector!Luz? They team up because the collector feels betrayed and they’re like “Y’know what we do not like each other but this puritan bitch has to go”

-I hate her
-she’s literally a toxic store manager but a million times worse
-GIRL GIVE YOUR HUSBAND A WEEKEND OFF WHAT THE FUCK
-“sounds like I joined the wrong coven” does mans not get LUNCH BREAKS??
-THE WIND BLOWING AFTER KING MENTIONED NEVER MEETING HIS DAD
-IS THE TITAN TEYING TO GIVE HIM A LITTLE PUSH ON THE SWING
-SCREAMING
-dude did Alador make that swingset for the kids??? It’s very abomination-y so it doesn’t seem unlikely
-I hope so that’s so cute
-“I’m gonna spend more time with my kids. Get to know them.“ SOBS
-oh fuck he knows now
-“I’m tired of all this draaama” I’m going to kill you

-YESSS GO AMITY SHE’S SO POWERFUL
-STOP HUNTER LOOKS SO SCARED AT KIKI THREATENING TO BRING HIM TO BELOS
-all the more reason for me to punt her
-“The Emperor has eyes everywhere” THERE BETTER NOT BE A TRAITOR I SWEAR TO GOD
-I really hope it’s just the collector watching through King and not a traitor
-oh fuck they plotting

MY POST GOT 1 NOTE (thank u so much @michi--michi bestie u don't understand the amount of joy I feel towards u right now) so here are some A headcannons!
A has driven several people who he deemed as unsafe out of the orphanage, normally people from his age range that made other kids uncomfortable (as in creepy/misogynistic uncomfortable not neurodivergent uncomfortable)
Man knows EVERYTHING, all the hot gossip, all of the secrets, EVERYTHING
Massive horror movie fan! His favorite was The Ring and yes he did traumatize several of the kids at the orphanage with this film
Also liked Akazukin Chacha, not to the same extent as B but he was a fan! He liked Riiya and they would argue about who was better many many times
A was born in England but speaks very broken French and japanese (amongst other languages) because of hanging out with B
This also meant that he would forget words in English ("Dude how do you say passe-moi les pommes in English?" "A English is your first language.")
He liked to dance in his room at ungodly hours on a night.
Would have fought Roger in a heartbeat (and won) less sure about winning against Wammy but he would have TRIED
He used to draw on his walls in highlighter and write stuff on them
He really liked apples! They were A's favorite fruit.
A was somewhere on the nonbinary spectrum but he was also AMAB and primarily masc presenting so he never really thought about it
Although sometimes he would be like "what if I wore a skirt and makeup just because?"
Was actually a big fan of sleep! Always wanted to sleep (like to a concerning and unhealthy amount) because depressions a bitch and "sleeping is the closest thing you can be to death without actually dying"
Man was aro-spec, like really Aro-spec. His ideal relationship was "best friends but sometimes we could kiss if we wanted" genuinely didn't understand why people weren't just dating their best friends. (And bitch? Same)
He didn't really want to be LOVED, just liked. He didn't care if anyone loved him or not, as long as that person liked him, he was happy to be liked. Love was a bonus, sure, but being liked gives serotonin
A was actually a rather affectionate person (and Obsessive as hell), probably would have enjoyed PDA
He wasn't particularly religious but he found the ideas behind religion interesting
Only child. Painfully so.
Attempted to dye his hair red, only for it to come out a slightly washed out pink. Ironically, he liked this more and kept it
His moral compass was, to put it bluntly, a roulette wheel. Sometimes it was morally wrong to punt kids down the stairs, sometimes it was not
A liked cats, thought they were cute

Sleeping dragons are rarely ever subtle, but when they are it makes them hard as fuck to find. 
Your watch-heart ticks erratically as you run out of options, time, and ideas.
Pacing a line into the floor out of anxiety. 
Blind Terror twitches in its sleep, disturbed by the turmoil of your thoughts. You curl up into a little ball, paws over ears, until you're calm and Blind Terror stops moving.
This is getting tiresome. 
You punt a dust bunny out of frustration and send it into a wall where it dissolves back into dust with a poof. 
Normally you'd feel bad about it, but you don't have time to care.
Peepo gently, but firmly, flattens you with his big lion paw to keep you from doing further damage to the dust bunny community. 
Deep down, you are grateful.
He wuffs like a big dog to get you to look him in the eyes. His eyebrows knit together and he inclines his head as if to say "If you can't find him, and I can't find him, why don't we ask someone who can? If I'm still kicking after all these years, then Book might be too."
Book was your brother's Imaginary Friend.
Quite literally a giant flying sentient book that spoke through text and illustrations written on its pages. Vlad, your brother, didn't need a big protector like Peepo he needed someone to talk to and bounce ideas off of like a rubber duck.
Peepo only agrees to let you up when YOU agree to stop kicking dust bunnies. 
You do, grudgingly. 
Finding Book is easier than you expect, it's in a Trader's dusty collection deep in the guts of the Corridors with a bunch of other Imaginary Friends and objects.
Nothing here is for sale, but the Trader won't let you talk to Book for free. 
You give them one of the bottled kisses from your inventory, which is apparently made of solid love.
Very rare, very expensive. 
You can talk to Book as long as you like, fuck it, take the damn thing if you really want to. 
You do.
Book isn't exactly happy to see you, but Book's never been happy in its entire life so that tracks. 
You ask if it's seen Vlad anywhere. 
Book opens wide, crispy brown pages fluttering until it finds a passage that reads, "He goes by V now."
"OK, but have you seen him?"
"I don't have eyes."
"...ok but do you know where he is?"
"Yes."
"Are you going to tell me?"
"If I do, will you leave me alone?"
"Yes."
A pause. 
Pages flutter before more text crawls across them, "I could lie to you, say just about anything to get you to &#$% off."
"I could eat you and shit you out in an hour, but I won't cuz I'm a nice person." You smile with lots and lots of teeth.
You are not a nice person, everybody seems to forget that.
Book is unmoved by your threats but tells you where to find V anyway before closing itself and sliding back onto the shelf where it had been asleep previously. 
Getting to V's place is… weirdly easy. To the point where it's setting off alarm bells in your head.
But still, you crawl out of the Corridors under his bed and find him sleeping there. One arm dangling over the side, drool pouring from his snoring open mouth, hair firmly wrapped up in a satin bonnet.
His legs are tangled in the sheets and the AC is cranked to inadvisable levels.
You bite him on the face. 
You'd expect anybody normal to wake up with a yelp, but V cracks open one eye, takes a look at you and rolls right on over as if this is all fine.
You jump on his back, squeaking your feet as loudly as possible until V finally gets the idea and wakes up properly. 
You tumble onto the floor as he sits up, and hit the ground with another squeak. A lamp clicks on, and V leans over to get a good look at you.
You have the same brown skin, and black sclera. When he yawns, you have the same black gums and sharp white teeth.
His fangs are capped in gold and his face is sharper than yours, but you two could definitely be related. 
If you squint. 
You wave up at him and he picks you up off the floor with an unreadable expression. 
You can feel his power probing your mind as his eyes unfocus and start to glow a deep bloody red.
The recognition and realization hits him like a truck.
"Jack?"
"Hi Vlad."
He puts you down and rubs his hands down his face, less in a 'just waking up' kind of way and more in a 'oh my god what NOW' way. 
"I need your help." You tap your index claws together and give him a wry smile.
He fixes you with a slit pupil glare, steam curling from his nostrils.
You swallow, mouth suddenly dry, "Do you remember Blind Terror? I-I mean of course you remember Blind Terror h-hahaha, well the chains you put on it kinda… broke and I still haven't figured out how to control it and I'm not in my body anymore cuz I got eaten by a video game thats making people sick so even if I could control it it would still be alone in my body and--"
V holds up a hand, "The point?"
You take a deep breath, your next words come out in a rush, "I need you to go to my house and lock Terror back up again so it doesn't get loose and possibly eat my family?" An awkward chuckle escapes you. 
"Nah, NAH," V's glare sharpens, steam is pouring from his mouth with every word, "I ain't seen your ass in 18 goddamn years, and you show up and expect me to fix your problems just like that?" He snaps his fingers and you flinch, "You were supposed to have a handle on this shit years ago."
You open your mouth to speak but the words die on your tongue. 
"We're family." The words sound Hollow to your ears, manipulative and cold like a knife to the throat.
"And so's a cousin who only shows up when they need money, you ain't special." 
"I can't do this by myself V, you know that." Tears burn in your throat and sting the backs of your eyes but you refuse to cry and come off as even more of a scumbag than you already are, "You know how Blind Terror works, you know how to stop it and I dont."
V raises an eyebrow, "Even if I've got everybody's collective leash don't mean I wanna keep walking your dog, do it your damn self."
You ball up your little fists and try to stand tall, to look serious, but you know for a fact that you look ridiculous. 
V snorts, "Cute."
"Cute? Do you think it would be cute if I gnawed your fucking arms off?" You growl and it sounds like an agitated chihuahua. 
V yawns again, "Yeah, probably."
You throw yourself at him but he holds you off with one hand. 
"My family is at stake, YOUR nieces and nephews." You squeak in rage.
"That I've never met, mind you."
"And you never will if Terror eats them!" 
"If I were a real asshole, I could argue that that falls on your ability to grow a goddamn spine and not my head." He picks you up by the arm and lets you dangle.
"You *are* a real asshole." The venom in your tone is lethal. 
He holds you up to his face so that you're eye to eye, steam swirls around you and makes you feel sluggish, sleepy, "Hey! I gave you a head start on getting your shit together, if you still don't have it now, after nearly two decades with your big bun pants, what exactly do you expect to happen? This gonna be a pattern? You gonna swing by once every 20 years to tighten the chains, then dip out?"
You don't answer. 
V snorts again, "You gotta learn to manage your shit on your own like the rest of us." He drops you onto the bed, you plan to just lie there for awhile before a familiar voice reminds you of mint chip ice cream and fry scented napkins. 
"Well isn't this sweet," Agent Beth says as she melts into the room from nowhere in particular. 
V looks at her, then at you, then back at her and even points at her for emphasis, "The fuck is this?"
"Magic cop bitch… psychic magic cop bitch that got me into this mess." You say from your place face down on the bed.
"The term is MESMER! Now be a good boy and hand over the bunny." Beth coos, you can hear the magic pouring into her voice, but Vlad is completely unaffected. 
"Oh, you're a walking microaggression, ok." 
You look up in time to see Beth go rigid before going completely slack and falling to the floor in a tangled heap. Her eyes are still open, her nose is bleeding profusely.
She's not dead but she certainly isn't alive either. You've seen V fry brains before when you were kids and it hasn't gotten less terrifying with time. 
"Psychic cop my ass." V mutters before slapping his thighs with both hands and getting up from the bed, you watch him pull on a shirt and some pants, "Look, I can't help you the way you want me to but that doesn't mean I can't help you at all… BT isn't your enemy.
Think of it this way, you're Garaa and BT is your sand, it just wants to protect you. 
But, BT is also like Kurama," he stops, one shoe on, and thinks, "Wait nah, wrong biju, BT is more like the One-Tail but you should still do what Naruto did to control Kurama."
You aren't following a single thing he's saying, "And that is?"
"You gotta find your Waterfall of Truth, sit under it, and figure out what's weighing you down. For Naruto it was his own malice and hatred making it impossible for him to confront Kurama who is a being of INCALCULABLE malice and hatred." He takes his bonnet off and makes sure his hair looks ok.
You still don't understand what he's talking about but pretend you do, "O…k?" 
He glances at you, "Just find a way to talk to BT on its level and you should be ok… now if you excuse me I gotta go bury this body you so generously brought into my home." 
The sarcasm in his words oozes like snot, but still you smile and hop to your feet.
"Lemme help, that bitch owes me a few fingers."
