#im trying to look on the brightside

I got my period, which means the next things on the list of reasons I missed my period last month (edit: I don't know why I said week, I missed my period entirely last month) are things that could point to infertility.

I'm putting this here to remind myself that I've always said that, if I couldn't have biological children, I would simply adopt. There are children who need love in the world and I have love that I want to give, it is not the end of the world if I never have a biological child or get pregnant. That is not all I have to offer or give and it isn't the only way to be a mom, only the easiest.

#ive been a little sad recently #waiting for all of these doctors appointments and wondering if i may just never get to have that experience #so im trying to remind myself to look at the brightside #life is hard and depression is hard and choosing joy is a battle that i fight every day #but choosing to try and find things to find joy in every day has made things a little better #my joy is in knowing that there are more things in this world than just me

this is solely bc i've been doing karaoke for the past 3 hours but who of all the aot men (eren, jean, reiner) would prob be really good at singing and might serenade their s/o?

(and i feel like by this point, you can just 100% assume that porco is included when i say aot men)

hello hello! im sorry that you asked me this in august and i'm only just getting to it now 💀 i feel like i've been so absent after tbaw ended so im gonna try to get caught up on asks that i've been putting off

sorry about the wait 💗

╰┈➤ karaoke - aot.

ft. eren, jean, porco, reiner. cw. gn!reader, alcohol

⋙ eren jaeger.

LOVES karaoke! is usually the first to suggest it but if someone else beats him to it, he's a very loud supporter

has great stage presence and excellent theatrics but is not great at actually singing, mostly just likes being there to have fun, goof around, and have some drinks

likes fast rap songs like right round by flo rida or rap god by eminem.

also really likes popular songs that people can't help singing along to like bohemian rhapsody by queen, don't stop believing by journey, sweet caroline by neil diamond, since u been gone by kelly clarkson, party in the usa by miley cyrus.... the list could go on

really good at getting the shyer people to sing along too by taking some of the attention off of them by doing something crazy

⋙ jean kirstein.

not a huge karaoke fan but after a few drinks, he gets really into it

surprisingly has a really great singing voice but leans toward picking songs that everyone knows so they can sing along and he doesn't look like a show off

mr brightside by the killers, all-star by smashmoouth, livin' on a prayer by bon jovi. he doesn't pick as goofy songs as eren, but a similar vein

when singing he performs for you. he's looking at you and singing to you the whole time, even if it's not a romantic song. the others get on his case about it but he can't help it, he just wants to impress you

pretends like he hates doing duets when you ask him to, but gets really into it and smiley the whole time 🥺

⋙ porco galliard.

HATES karaoke. literally will not go unless you and the other drag him out, but even then he won't sing at all and will just eat and get drunk while the rest of you make fools of yourself

but after a few drinks, he always gets annoyed with someone (reiner) and takes the mic away to "show him how it's done"

picks annoying songs just to piss everyone off: mmmbop by hanson, baby by justin beiber, the national anthem

when he gets really drunk he starts showing off and it turns out porco's got some pipes on him!! he'll jokingly pick my heart will go on by celine dion and everyone will be staring at him with their jaws on the floor because he can actually carry the notes

gets irrationally angry the next day when he finds out that you've posted videos of him singing on instagram or snap and DEMANDS that you delete them

⋙ reiner braun.

he's very shy at first. he'll turn down any offers to sing and he'll just kinda hum along or sing quietly to himself as others perform but after a couple of drinks he starts to loosen up

will join in with eren and jean if they do some goofy rendition of let it go or will sing into the mic if you hold it out to him in the middle of your song

but after too many drinks he gets a little in his feels. he'll start picking someone like you by adele, can't help falling in love by elvis presley, perfect by ed sheeran

bless his heart, reiner tries his absolute best but he just doesn't have the best voice. but you appreciate the effort and make sure to smile and nod encouragingly to him while he's on stage

probably cries on stage during one of his love songs and then you and the others have to do damage control to get him off the stage before you all get kicked out

I HAVE AN IDEAAA✨✨

so I just wondered creepypasta characters (of your choice) have a snowball fight since it's almost Christmas🫶

Eyeless Jack, Hoodie, Jeff the Killer, and Laughing jack x reader having a snowball fight (platonic)

WOOOOOOOOO the creepypasta requests are keeping me sane between all the TADC requests (no shade, i will close down TADC when i truly get tired of writing for it) rolls around

EYELESS JACK:

really the only reason i picked ej was because i love him and because he lives in the woods in my au/hc, so.... he gets more than enough snow and lord knows that this man needs a little fun in his life! not too incredibly competitive over the fight, so you have a decent chance at winning! not at all phased by the cold, since hes... well hes not sure what he is but hes already cold, whats a little more cold going to do? kill him? probably not.... though he does make you come back inside when you show signs of getting way too cold. he cant have you getting sick, after all! definitely makes you bundle up before you guys even open the front door. very nice, though, you actually get a smile from him... and dare i say a few laughs?

LAUGHING JACK:

really up to anything you want to do, especially if its going to be a game! while sure hes not competitive, it should be noted that lj can be a little aggressive in his play style... as in he kind of underestimates how durable people are... he probably throws a HUGE snow ball at you... and i mean like one thats at least half your size/hj... ooooooh you guys definitely make little forts! you will probably get sick, though, since unless you say anything hes not really going to notice any cues that youre getting too cold... though look on the brightside! lj is very warm and hes more than willing to let you warm up next to him! hes like a portable heater! might have to ask him to pipe down if you guys are playing in your backyard, it would be hard to explain to your neighbors who this 8 foot tall clown man is

JEFF THE KILLER:

oh i just know that hes going to put rocks in the snowballs, so you gotta be careful with that! sore loser, very competitive in the fact that "if i lose im going to lose im never going to be able to live it down (its not that serious)" so youre going to have to really plan things out if you even want a chance at winning.... okay you might not need to be overly strategic, jeff isnt the best planner and he tends to brute force his way with things, so you might have the upper hand if you actually try to hit him in his weak points. destroy his fort, overwhelm him, hit him where it hurts (its really not that deep.) very insistent that you guys keep going because he cannot stand the idea of being beat, even if you two are both freezing your asses off. you both likely get sick... jeff seems like the type to be whiny when sick imo LMAO so have fun with that

HOODIE:

like a middle between eyeless jack and jeff. hes competitive but not in the same way of jeff, he just takes the game way too seriously but he doesnt actually feel inclined to win. he can swing either way with the outcome, you know? does not put rocks in the snowball, though. not a dirty cheat, plus he doesnt actually want to hurt you! makes very good forts that are sturdy, you SWEAR hes put bricks in them but rest assured its pure snow. takes you inside ones you start showing signs of getting too cold, probably puts a time out on the game by making the T hand shape that people do in games, since i personally hc that he doesnt speak (communicates via primarily sign language but he sometimes leaves you notes!). doesnt get sick easily, so if you do get sick hes going to look after you. dont even try to fight it. he has nothing better to do, hes going to be there whether you want him there or not

#creepypasta x reader #creepypasta x you #eyeless jack x reader #laughing jack x reader #jeff the killer x reader #hoodie x reader #eyeless jack x you #laughing jack x you #jeff the killer x you #hoodie x you

Max 10 Speedrun

I have not posted in over 6 months so now i need to catch up on all the ben 10 art i have not posted hueheuhe. Also have some asks which i will get to !!

Swampfire! Tried to honor the bloomed design with the collar and bright fingers even though i really hate it in the show (lol) also gave him 1 eye to represent his weak eyesight. Also the weakness i gave him about the fire burning him shouldve been a thing in the show tbh

Echo echo, tried to go for a more boomboxy vibe bc yk boomer Max. I like the idea of aliens looking extremely different while still being the same species (not a subspecies like murk and perk gourmands, thats cool too but different)

Humungo. I actually was never a big fan of him lmao, i always thought you need to do more with him than just "dinosaur" especially with that color scheme he has in the show. I got the idea to give him feathers to show the drastic change in age also bc i love chicken dinos and think they should appear more. Fun fact the power change come from what i used to think his powers worked like when i was a kid

Jeffrey!! One of my fav aliens ever. Not much about this is special just bigger with different colors. I also took a few notes from the concept art with the weirdo shaped eyes and having his body be a mantaray with legs sticking out to make him less humanoid, since ben's jetray design looks more like a man with wings than a mantaray with legs yk?

Another screenshot redraw!! This is the only other one ive done sadly, i really oughta make more screenshot redraws tbh. This one is of the scene where kevin and ben get chased by the entire frickin fbi or something for stealing a video game. I imagine in this version max chases after them and comes for the rescue

Lodestar! Never been much of a special alien. Design on the right is made by me aswell since i wanted to do my own spin on bens lodestar (basically the same just give him longer arms). Once again he has 1 eye to represent max's eyesight problems

Brainstorm! Instead of giving him specially weaker eyesight i made his shell cover his eyes as the way to visually represent that (as well as the classic squinty eyes i have going on for each alien

Also i got asked while making this how come maxstorm is so big when psychobos is also old and visibly smaller, and my answer to that was that third image. In my head i always saw psychobos as sort of disfigured and mutated, and not representative of what is typical for his species. If he were to turn into a human thatis what i think hed look like

Goop! I always loved goop, and the idea of a ufo antigrav device helping him navigate because hes not built for earths gravity is a super unique and cool idea. However i i wanted to go for something entirely different with my goop since i never liked the idea of the omnitrix creating non-clothes for the user (bc then you have to consider that it would create a respirator for ripjaws, and thats lame)

And thats all!! Id expect myself to have made as many Max 10 drawings since i stopped posting as before, but sadly i have slowed down significantly over time, especially on max 10. Im not really happy about it and im trying to be a fast artist again but its not coming to me. On the brightside though, ive got a fair bit of other Ben 10 stuff to show!!

Leather and Lace

Santiago "Pope" Garcia X Fem!OC

With: Frankie "Catfish" Morales, Benny Miller, and Will "IronHead" Miller

Chapter 2

Fic Master list

Fic Summary: While on the mission, Pope and the guys find a girl tied up in the basement of a drug lord. Through a few unforeseen circumstances, the girl and Pope get separated from Will, Frankie and Benny and have to find their way back in the woods. She doesn't talk, is malnourished and traumatized, and Pope has the instinct to protect her at all costs.

WARNINGS!!!: for whole fic there’s gonna be violence, mentions of blood, mentions of sex trafficking, ptsd, sexual trauma (past), physical trauma, gunshots, eventual smut!! Don’t read just for the smut tho cuz it’s not smut focused.

A/N This will be a series! I've never written Santi before, so what started as one shot turned into a mini series.

My all fic masterlist is here

Moon Knight masterlist here, be sure to check out Sunshine, Starlight, Sweetheart, Brightside, my ongoing series im finishing up!

******************

The basement was dark and cold as Santiago and Frankie descended the staircase, their flashlights placed below their guns to light the way, scanning the room for anyone else they needed to kill as Benny and Will cleared the upstairs. The four of them had taken care of the first floor together, taking out the few guards that were left.

Seeing no switches to turn on, Frankie went right and Santi went left, clearing the single room. “HANDS UP!” Santi shouted to anyone potentially in the basement.

“Shit, Pope” Frankie called over, Santi cleared his side and went to where his friend called him, that’s where he saw her. Initially, he thought she was dead. There was a girl tied up in the corner, face bloodied as she slumped as far as the ropes against the chair allowed her. “Miss?” Frankie called before glancing at Santi with a raised eyebrow. The girl was in shorts and a low cut tank top, showing off the bruises marking her skin. It was way to cold down here to be dressed that like that. “Is she breathing?”

Please don’t be dead, please don’t be dead…. “Fuck…” He mumbled, lowering his gun and flashlight while Frankie kept his up, he placed his hands on her neck and found a pulse on her cold skin. “Well, she’s-” alive, he was going to say, before her eyes shot open with a gasp. When the girl saw the gun in her face, she screamed briefly before shutting her eyes and mouth tightly, bracing herself. “Hey, hey it’s okay” Santiago Garcia put his hands on her shoulders, trying to calm her, but she just started whimpering eyes closed. “We’re not going to hurt you.”

“Pope, give her space…” Frankie warned, knowing Santi can be intense.

He glanced up to Frankie “Put the gun away”

Frankie lowered the gun, but didn’t put it away while Santi went around to the back of the chair. When he began cutting the ropes around her arms, she visibly started shaking. “Catfish, she’s handcuffed to the chair” He popped his head around, back into Frankies view, looking concerned.

Nodding, Frankie put his gun away and grabbed his radio “Benny, come to the basement, bring shit to pick a lock.”

‘What is taking you guys so long?’

“Ben, now” Frankie ordered. Ben didn’t respond, which Santi knew meant he was coming. Frankie kept his senses alert, aware Santi was clearly distracted. This was going to be a problem. She was going to be a problem.

“Miss?” Santi spoke softly, carefully. “We’re gonna get you out, okay? We’re not here to hurt you.” She didn’t reply. “Can you tell me your name? I’m Santiago”

Frankie, who was scanning the room, whipped his head back to Santi “Are you crazy? You don’t know who she is.”

“She’s obviously being trafficked!” He was knelt at the chair and nodded to the handcuffs “Look at her wrists, they look like shit.”

“You don’t know, Pope. She could have more to do with this than you think, and you don’t know where her loyalties are.”

Santi stood up, irritated. “Well, I don’t think her loyalties are with the people who did that-” he motioned to the bloodied girl, who continued to keep her eyes closed tightly like she was braced for pain. “To her face.”

“She could have Stockholm Syndrome” Franki insisted. “Just don’t tell her more than you need to.”

“It doesn’t matter what she has, because she’s not going back to them to tell them anything” Pope spoke as if his voice was a command to fate. She will not go back, she will not be hurt again. All the things he had done in his life, he wanted to do some good.

“Oh fuck…” Benny practically hopped down the stairs, pulling out a few small items. Benny could pick about any lock. “Who is she?” He asked Santi.

“No idea...” Pope watched as Ben undid her handcuffs with ease. Finally, the girl opened her eyes, but they were wide with terror and avoiding the eyes of the men surrounding her. She rubbed her raw and bruised wrists, flinching when Santi knelt back down at her side. “Hey, can you look at me?” She didn’t. He sighed. “Can you come with us upstairs? No one is up there but us.” Santi didn’t tell her that was because her captures were all dead. He pulled out his own flashlight again, looking at Frankie and Benny, nodding them upstairs. Frankie sighed, rolling his eyes.

Benny looked confused, but Frankie grabbed his shoulder pulling him away. Frankie grumbled to the blonde boy. “We’re on clean up duty.” And went upstairs to drag the dead bodies out of where the girl could see them.

Backing up a bit and allowing her space, he tried to catch her eyes. He had a dual purpose for sending his friends upstairs. First of all, they really did need to get the dead body away from where she might see. Pope intended to take her up there, get her some first aid, food, water, and whatever else she needed. But also, he thought she’d be more comfortable with just him. Santi assumed that she was trafficked, and if not that, it was more than likely that she had been sexually abused by one or multple men here. Having three men with guns wasn’t doing much to calm her nerves. Even if Santi knew they wouldn’t hurt her, she didn’t know that.

“I know you’re scared, but I promise you have nothing to worry about. Me and my friends, we’re going to get you out and to wherever you need to be. Are you from here?” She didn’t look Latin American, but you could never be sure. She didn’t speak, but shook her head, still looking at the floor. It was a start. “Are you from the US?” She nodded. “We are too. Don’t worry, we’ll get you back there.” He called into his com again. “Guys, she’s from the states, she’d gotta have some sort of identification or papers here. I need you guys to try and see if you can find anything.”

‘Pope, what’s the plan.’ Will answered, meaning what’s the plan with her.

“We’re going to get her back to the states and she’ll get set up with services.”

‘We’re supposed to be looking for-’

“I know that, Ironhead, are you suggesting we just leave her here?”

‘No, of course not, I just mean we need to get going and-’

“Just try and find her fucking papers and you can argue with me latter”

He turned back to her. “Sorry, can we go upstairs? Get you some food?” She nodded again, shaking hands bracing against the chair as she hesitantly tried to stand up. When she leaves her chair, her legs give out, but before she falls to the ground Santiago catches her. Finally, finally, she met his eyes. For the brief moment, he looks at her bloodied and bruised face as she stares back at him. Was it with terror? Confusion? Curiosity? He didn’t know. He intended to sit her back on the chair, not wanting to touch her more than needed, but when he moved to carefully set her down, she tightly gasped and gripped his arms tighter. He froze. She was looking away from him, but holding onto him for dear life, her face so close to his arm.

“Can I help you upstairs?”

She nodded vigorously, face softly brushing over his shirt.

“Okay, let’s get you something to eat…” Santiago had to practically carry her up the stairs, her whole body trembling as he sat her down in a comfortable chair in the living room. “Stay here” He said, as if she was capable of moving. Protein bars and water, he figured those were safe. In the light, she looked like. Hell. Her skin was pale, almost gray, and he wondered when the last time she saw sunlight was. The actual color of her hair, he wasn’t sure of. It was blonde, but right now it was covered in so much dirt and blood that caked to her face it was hard to tell. Her skinny appearance, sunken eyes and inability to stand told him she was malnourished. How long has she been here?

She ate hungrily, gulping down the water. All initial reservation she showed around him appeared to have faded as she devoured what was in front of her.

“Careful, you’ll make yourself sick.” Santi warned, but she didn’t slow down.

“Hey” Will called from the hall, becoming Santi over. “Who the hell is she?”

“I don’t know.” He crossed his arms and looked over to the dirty girl who only seemed preoccupied with eating. “She won’t talk. She only nodded when I asked if she was American.” When Santi looked back, he saw concern on Will’s face, but it wasn’t only for the girl. “Relax, Will.”

“I didn’t say anything!” Will was defensive. “But we need to go, we can’t stay here.”

Frankie rejoined them. “You didn’t have to say anything. He knows we know how he is.” Fish gave him a pointed look.

“I’m like what? I want to help a girl whose clearly been sex trafficked?”

“No one is saying to leave her, Pope.” Frankie said loud enough to make the girl look up. The three of them moved a few feet down the hall and spoke quieter. “We have a lot of work to do here, she can’t get in the way of that. Okay?”

“I know, Fish.” Santi asserted. “This whole operation was my idea”

“Let’s just get her on one of the bikes and get her to the police there, the longer we stay here the more we risk someone else showing up”

“Lacina Dumas!” Benny sauntered into the living room towards the girl, making her stiffen again. He was carrying a few papers and a wash clothe and sat down on the coffee table across from her. “I’m Benjamin, nice to meet you” He smiled and extended his hand towards the scared girl.

“Ben” Santi warned as he strode towards the pair, but stopped when he saw her carefully shake his hand. It was practically a fucking miracle, she couldn’t even meet Santi’s eye.

The younger Miller continued. “Everyone just called me Benny.” His older brother told him to stop giving her personal information, but Ben ignored her. “Do you go by Lacina?” He spoke carefully, but casual. Almost like he was meeting an applicant for a job, he was trying to put her at ease, but not baby her.

There was a long, long pause, before she finally spoke. “Laci.” Pope’s jaw dropped when he finally heard her speak, he wasn’t sure if she could. He had wondered if she only spoke a little English, or maybe they had even cut out her tongue. It wouldn’t be the most horrific thing he’d seen these people do.

Ben’s warm smile broadened. “Pretty name.” He showed his hand holding a wet washcloth. “Can I clean up your head a bit, see if you need first aid?”

Laci nodded, and Ben carefully cleaned off the blood, revealing the closed wound on her head. It was past first aid and had healed on its own. It would leave a scar and Pope doubted her hairline it cut into would recover, but she’d be okay.

Santi watched, amazed. Ben had a natural charm that everyone responded to. His face was handsome, but not disarmingly so. There was a reason they called him baby-faced Benjamin. Selfishly, and not for the first time, Pope wondered what Ben had that he didn’t. Why did she answer Ben, and not him? Pope has the urge to protect her, but he also wanted badly for her to put her trust in him, to feel safe with him…

Before he could think further or gauge Will and Frankies emotions, the door slammed open and shut; someone had hidden in the house and ran out. All for men were out the door before they saw the drug lord speeding off in a car.

“GO! GO!” Will ordered as Ben and him hopped on the bike the road out there and sped after the man.

Frankie got on his bike, turning around when he noticed Santiago Garcia hesitating. “POPE! We have to go NOW”

Santi pointed inside the house with his gun. “I can’t leave her!”

“FUCK!” Fish slammed his hand on the handles. “This is what we meant! Get on here, we need you!”

He shook his head. “No! If he was hiding, someone else could be, I’m not letting them take her.”

Frankie shouted again, watching the other bike and the car disappearing, there wasn’t any more time. “We’re talking about this latter, don’t fucking leave!” And with that, Frankie was off, a trail of dust behind the motorcycle.

Santi scrubbed his face. He hated watching them go off on their own without him… but he couldn’t leave her there. He wandered back inside, seeing Laci there on the couch with unfinished food. “You should probably eat more.”

She shook her head, avoiding eye contact again.

“When was the last time you ate?”

She shrugged. Goddamn, she didn’t even remember… she seemed so young now that Benny cleaned her up, What horrible things had she seen? He lips still looked almost blue from the cold basement, and it wasn’t much warmer up here. He thought about finding her something other than the skimpy excuse gif clothes she had, but figured they’d get her to the village soon enough, once the boys got back. God, he was going to get an earful from Frankie and Will. Pope put her ID, social and birth certificate in the pocket of his shirt, knowing that will make it much easier to get situated back in the States. “You know you can look at me, I’m not going to punish you for making eye contact…” He spoke softly, hoping to god she believed he wouldn’t hurt her, but before she could respond there was a gunshot. Glass shattered around them, falling into their hair and making a few small cuts on Laci’s significant exposed skin.

The shooters missed, but Pope couldn’t see where it was coming from. “Get low and run!” He took her hand, pulling the terrified girl out of the house. Santi had his gun drawn in one hand, and her arm in the other as he tried to find the shooter, unable to identify him. Fuck, they had to go. “Get in front of me, run to the woods!” Santi ordered and she compiled. Thankfully the mix of adderaline and the food and water helped her be able to run, although not as fast as Santi would have liked. He wondered if she was running on pure survival instinct at this point, and hoped and bullets hit his bullet proof vest, not her or anywhere vital on him.

And they ran. Santi stopped hearing gun shots when they entered the treeline, but he continued to urge her on as if he did. They needed to get as far in as they could before the adrenaline rush ended for her. When she started to wear down, they stopped, taking a moment to catch their breath. Santi wanted to scream, he could about lose his mind right now. “We gotta walk back to the village…” He huffed out, breathless. He was in shape, but running was never his favorite thing. “When the guys come back and see us gone, they’ll know to find us there…”

Santiago put his hands on his knees, wincing “Fuck!” He shouted a bit too loud for someone who theoretically was supposed to be hiding. The girl jumped, prompting him to apologize. “Sorry, sorry I just… I realized they are going to come back to the house and get shot at…” He stood up, pacing, pulling his hair and briefly thinking he should back and try to take out the gunman, or intercept the guys on the road somehow… But when he looked at the young girl to his left, eyes wide and looking at him, actually looking at him, he knew she was completely dependent on him. They guys could handle themselves and they had each other… She only had him.

“Laci? That’s your name right?” He asked, trying to calm himself for her sake. She needed to think he knew what he was doing if she was going to trust him. She nodded at him. “Okay, Laci, I’m gonna get you where you need to be, alright? It’s gonna be okay.” He wasn’t sure how much he believed his words, but he’d try his damnedest. “Let’s try to keep going, tell me when you’re tired and we can rest or stop for the night, okay?” When she didn’t respond, he sighed. “Just…” He made a T with his hands. “Do this if you need to rest, okay?”

She nodded, he nodded back, and started heading north. When he looked back to see if she was behind him, he saw she was staring.

“Santiago.” Laci said. It wasn’t a question, more like she was testing his name on her lips.

He smiled at her kindly. “Yeah, that’s me. You can call me Santi, if that's easier…” they were going to spend the next few days together, he hoped he could get a couple more words out of her, but it was a start.

As long as he wasn’t going insane, he saw the faintest smile appear on her face. “Santi.”

“Good job, Muñeca.” He liked the sound of his name in her voice, as small and hesitant as it was.

She definitely smiled at the nickname, a very small and nervous one, but it was there. Nodding at him, she began walking.

Santi walked ahead of her, but very, very, aware of her footsteps to make sure she wasn’t falling behind. Santi wasn’t a religious man, but he grew up going to church. He wasn’t sure if there was a god out there and if there was, whose god it was. But whatever was out there, he hoped something was watching over Benny, Will, Frankie and the girl.

Sorry about your day :(

Unpopular character opinion: Erik was actually kind of a douche. He was just a good brother to Wille

(I think that's a fairly shared opinion here on tumblr but I don't think it's shared on tiktok and such)

thank you beloved ;;; it wasn’t Terrible but im still angry at how things got handled and it's. sigh. but at least i was with people i know and could talk to, so im trying to focus on that brightside. plus it’s over now, so that’s also good!

anyways, i absolutely agree with this. im so glad to be seeing it talked about more on tumblr bc honestly it's smth that I've been trying to understand. [i will avoid yr tiktok for as long as i shall live. i only visit sometimes for zee’s edits]

Erik was kinda a douche!!! one of his few scenes includes him laughing at a terrible joke that August makes!!! and I've always hated that!!!!

honestly, I think the fandom idolizes him, in a way. part of that is certainly because we don't have much to go off of, and part of it is because what we DO have is biased via Wilhelm (who clearly looks up to and does also idolize Erik), and I feel like part of it is just because we all WANT someone to put Wilhelm first and to actually take care of him.

and im absolutely included in this!!!

but really, what we DO see in canon is very much NOT what we see in fandom. laughing at August’s joke is just the tip of the iceberg, really, because we also see him being relatively strict with Wilhelm (telling him to let August take the bag, telling him to go back out during parents day to keep up appearances). and one thing that is also very interesting is that he ignores Wilhelm at one point (specifically, when he’s leaving Hillerska and Wilhelm tells him to say hi to their parents, Erik doesn’t acknowledge it)

but as far as the second half, i do think he tends to be a pretty good brother as well! he teases Wilhelm, he rough-houses with him, he pulls him into stunts that could get them both in trouble, and he generally seems to be able to read him pretty well (something he probably wouldn’t be able to do if he didn’t spend much time with him-- the only other person who i think is comparable in really being able to read Wilhelm is Simon)

all in all, this is very much just me rambling, but yeah. i agree. he does seem to be a douche, but we tend to focus a lot on the aspects that we see in him being a good brother. ignoring his bad qualities is easier because we see him so little, but they are still present whether we like it or not.

#i wrote this over the course of 2 breaks and am finishing it having gotten home kshdfdshf #so if it seems disconnected at points its bc it IS #cus parts were written hours apart skdhfksdhf #ANYWAYS #long winded af bc i can't keep quiet and like i said i have many thoughts on the way erik is portrayed in the show vs in fanfics #i really really want to write a fic where he is ALIVE so i can write him closer to this version than the fandom version #i've got 2 but one is probably gonna be more fandom version just bc. i want to fit the story. and i make the damn rules #but i have another story that i plan to have him more like this. i think it'll be a fun challenge anyway #askers #spaghett-shitposts #young royals #shh ac

I am in one of those moods.

probably bc I have been feeling good all week.

so I have to crash.

don't wanna eat or go outside.

too much peopling the last two weeks.

tired.

it's beautiful tho. besides being broke my life is pretty good actually.

but.

well. I just have to let it go, don't I?

I'm not going to have...that.

look on the brightside.

people forget that we exist in this world "whole" - body mind and soul - they all affect the other. and sometimes you can mind over body or spirit over both.

but sometimes you're fucked up physically and you have to take care of it. it's affecting you mentally.

or you're fucked up mentally and it's affecting you physically and/or spiritually.

or you're fucked up spiritually and you're just fucking up some things and not others. and so on.

like.. do people understand what's it's like to always be under assault or strain in one of these areas and have almost none or no support? what it's like to be a minority with social issues and physical issues (chronic and accute)?

it's a godddamn nightmare.

this shit. and people. goddamn the fuckinh people.

sometimes they're good. so good. and other times they may as well be demons. really.

I'm tired. I've over extended myself. I need to eat. and maybe get a little sun and sugar.

but mostly?

MOSTLY?

i actually need the goddamn love ive been seeking from another human being for my whole life. yeah

i actually need the sort of love that's described with words like soul mate, eternal, unconditional

and to feel that same love for the other person..

and every time. idk. i get overwhelmed? too excited. too ready and committed. i fall fast and hard.

i know what i like. i know who and how and what i am. if i want to love you.. i will give you everything short of what i cannot give you.

like my cats. or my health (bc wtf)

but i would try so very hard to do everything in my power to support. i would be the most loyal and loving person. i would learn you inside and out. how to pleasure, how to relieve, how to teach, how to learn, how to be and be there.

...

maybe that frightens people.

i'm just an anxious cringefail guy. i'm pretty boring, i'd say. but im hot and smart and funny and talented. i like to get better at anything i do. i'm always curious. love cats and nature and science and thunderstorms and autumn and life and strange things

ranting. gah. i just need to get it out of me.

because .. i know i'll never find the love im looking for.

i'm tired

i'm more likely to gain enlightenment than to find the woman im looking for

so imma devote myself to that 🤷🏽‍♂️

Mr. Brightside, Sugar We’re Goin Down, Angel of Darkness, and Discord for your soul eater s/i? 🫶

THANK U!!! 🥺

MR. BRIGHTSIDE :: If your s/i had to describe themselves, what would that description be? Would they be honest with how they describe themselves?

hmm i feel like...styx would describe themselves in a sort of jaded but straightforward way. like they have a very suppressed sense of self, so i think at first if asked directly they take it very literally and start answering like "uhhh i'm about 5'8, kinda fat, dark hair..." etc etc. autism moment. if pressed for more they might start describing themselves as more of a tool than a person; a mirror for everyone else to look in, without an image of its own. and considering how they've been used for their powers their whole life, it's...not completely untrue. Depersonalization the clown.

SUGAR WE’RE GOIN DOWN :: Does your s/i’s inclusion in the media’s plot change anything majorly? If so, what’s changed?

oh definitely. their whole thing is divining the future, after all, though if there's one thing styx has learned, it's that trying to avoid your fate is often what causes it. most early story beats wouldn't fundamentally change, i think, especially since they're kept a secret from most of the academy (and subsequently the main characters), but i think their existence is revealed during the formation of spartoi and from then on they have a more significant role. which i.....mostly still need to work out ajlhdajkls but the biggest change i think would be that they put sorta put pressure/put the idea in the kids head that asura might be reached thr same way that crona was (yes this is part of my asura redemption propaganda)

ANGEL OF DARKNESS :: Is your s/i merciful and/or forgiving?

absolutely nottt they are the #1 grudge holder <3 they crave violence and revenge at all times. which is funny since im insistent on asura redemption but i guess its different in my mind and in styx's. they're really extremely unforgiving when it comes to things people have done to them, but their less than solid and fair morality has them caring little for what asura has done to others

DISCORD :: Is your s/i superstitious? Does your s/i believe in the supernatural or things like astrology and tarot cards?

.........................................................................................yes

same anon

I'm sorry if I sounded uncomfortable, you're very kind person and always trying to look at brightside,it's just I can't help it but hating on harmful people I'm type of "you hurt me and hurt people you don't deserve second chance" person and especially because I've been groomed and harassed as kid and I was talking about adult transid (and I sometimes don't believe they're kids because of they identify as transage) because they're responsible and aware of what they're doing and as for young transid the best thing we can do is report them and block them and if they continued being like this as adult then I don't see them people who deserve second chance

(Sorry if I'm making you feel uncomfortable if you don't like me being in your blog then let me know )

thats a completely okay way to look at stuff! and dont worry Im not uncomfortable, the identities themselves make me icky not discussion of it, and youre always welcome on my blog. Im not afraid to use the block button when uncomfortable <:)

I definitely agree on the adult part, how are you, a grown person, altering what it means to be trans so you get to "cope with trauma uwu", being trans is never about trauma or neurodivegence, it can be connected, but its never the cause. and its not "identifying as something youre not", trans women arent "identifying as women", they *are* women, trans men arent "identifying as men" they *are* men, the "identifying as something youre not" and the whole concept of "trans-identity" comes from transphobic rhetoric and is therefore inherently transphobic no matter what. which is a waste to explain this as everyone against transids know this and transids would rather put their fingers in their ears and go "LALALALALALAL" than actually listen. so I definitely understand your anger, its definitely okay to be angry, you dont owe anybody kindness, it just personally ruins my mental health to be mad and complain too much so Ive thaught myself to be more open-minded and positive. Im sorry if I ever made you feel bad for being angry

HEAR ME OUT. after lockwood sees kipps and lucy talking outside he starts blasting this shit from his room and everyone can hear it and hes playing it as hes getting ready and lucy is gettnig ready in her room and is just like ????lockwood wtf and oh my god its so funny hes using a comb as a mic and is putting on a whole performance its hilarious. i bet on losing dogs - mitski oo different vibe from the last one LMAO. lockwood has fallen asleep in her lap after a long cry session, shes running her fingers through his hair and hes sleeping surprisingly peacfully, just thinking about how he might not make it, she starts to cry. looking out for you - joy again lucy after holly shows up, she feels replaced and like lockwood likes holly more, she feels like she should stop being so "obsessed" (in love) with him because he has holly now. she is so so wrong. cigarette daydreams - cage the elephant lockwood is in lucys lap again (im so origional and creative im sorry im just a sucker for pathetic men in their badass gfs lap) and hes talking about jess. she feels bad just cuz he was such a little kid, he didnt deserve to see that. you stupid bitch - girl in red self explanatory??? i think?? maybe i was boring - wilbur soot idk ik the songs r sad and all but it has such cozy reading together on a rainy day vibes. freaks - surfcurse this is so :(((( its so lockwood.

IT IS VERY MUCH A CAUSE FOR CONCERN. phonograph - piper madison lockwood and his dysfunctional brain and dysfunctional routines. garden in the backyard - bl lucy is sick and locky is takin care of she :>>. runaway - aurora lucys mind while on the walk to the trainstation, and walking through london, getting turned down by agencies over and over before finally arriving at lockwood and co.

Hiii love, how are you doing? Is your rugby practice going good? Are you still killing people with your hotness :p

BESTIE HIIIIIIIII!! I'm currently stuggling under some coursework, but once i get through this one class i wont have any more required math courses ever again😌 Other than that im pretty good, rugby season ended last week, which is sad but i killed it at the tournament we went to. Admittedly i look like a banana with the number of bruises I got and also i think something got damaged on my chest but ima wait a few days to see if it eases up before getting it checked out. on the brightside, i got put in charge of the little kids summer touch rugby camp, and am getting paid decently for it, which makes it all the better lol. But honestly playing rugby with small children is so much fun they dont know what they're doing but by God they're doing something. Pretty sure my hotness is up there, and im doing a wardrobe restock this summer whilst trying my hand at upcycling and creating my own clothing, so soon my fashion will be peak bisexual. anyways how are you?

#ive missed you my beloved #also saw ur reply to my ask earlier pls dont apologize for the indian content i may not understand it but i love it anyways #also bheem i think his name is is truly a puppy of a man #i have no idea what his story is but i would die for him

Looking back at my behavior being like oh interesting. I really do be subconsciously looking people over like “should I infect you?”

“If I do infect you will you then infect other people?”

“How easy is this task?”

I have come to the conclusion theres 3 traits I seem to really like as a parasite in other people.

Extroverted- you love talking to people! And hugging them and stuff! Definitely keep doing that post infection

Open to new experiences and sharing that- your adventurous. You love to try something new like tasting the strange water you found thats tinted red. Definitely doesn’t taste like kool aid. Oh well! Get all of your friends to try it to!

Optimistic- you gotta have a good positive outlook on life. You know theres always a brightside to things and just like capitalism and employee slave labor we are going to use that to our full advantage. You might say “sure theres teeth inside my stomach but im the same person i was before” exactly! Now get out there and make some new friends.
