Adlerโ€™s Projects in Progress aka PiPs!
Well well well. As I have many, many AftG ideas going on, wayyy too many, I thought I'd inspire myself from @stabbyfoxandrew 's WIP Wednesdays and give y'all the draft titles of the fics I would really love to write, in hopes that it spurs on my motivation and creativity. I also just wanna talk about what goes on in my brain. I cannot shut up about these guys. I need people to enable me. Come on, be my hero.
Simply drop one of the titles below in my Ask box and I'll give you a snippet of the work, a summary if I have not written anything yet, the main ideas or ship(s), or anything that I can give away, really. I'm not yet picking a dedicated day for Adler's PiPs, but I might later on, if it helps to keep me accountable? I don't know!
Note that for @dayurno โ€˜s @daylightficfest, I won't be answering before March 11th, once I'm sure I have claimed my prompts and got my grabby little raccoon hands on the ideas.
Also note that I'm posting this while on a laser-focus + productivity high, which might drop anytime now, thus it might take me time to answer asks. I apologize in advance for the way my brain works.

Katelyn - Aph, nana and Travis all call her Kate! She seems to be mean and brooding but theyโ€™re actually a hopeless romantic and has her eye on Lucinda ! Katelyn was really popular in school for the fact they got into a lot of fights with other popular kids and became friends with aphmau in science class! Sheโ€™s proud to be herself and helps out Nana with loving herself as well <33

General Book Review: CROCUTA
Author: Katelyn Rushe
This book is the epic about hyenas that I've always wanted. Itโ€™s a stunning work of its genre exploring an animal that is largely reviled and misunderstood. It was unexpected in the most fun and entertaining ways. I hope there will be a sequel. The laws of Crocuta were developed well and used in marvelous tandem with the plot. I can't even recount how many times the book had me chuckling and in tears. The climax was especially powerful and moving. I am not ashamed to admit I cried. This book was touching, moving, and well-worth the read. The author blended the natural aspects of animal behavior together beautifully in this work and as an author who writes in the same genre myself I have been inspired by this masterful work. It's a trail-blazer for the animal fantasy genre. I know as an author the more self-published works I read in the genre the harder it is to find more like it. I think it really is a great and untapped field to explore regarding books from animals perspectives. I'm grateful to add this book to my collection of favorites in the genre. If anyone knows of any works fitting the description above, a fantasy as told by an animal, please recommend them in the comments.

Rumor Has It [T], 3k
Neil Josten/Andrew Minyard
โ€œOkay, duh,โ€ Allison says, cutting Katelyn off. โ€œEven us public school bumpkins know at five years old that the Moriyamas are powerful. Get to the part of the story where Andrew invites a prince to our Exy game.โ€ โ€œHeโ€™s not a prince,โ€ Andrew mumbles into his spaghetti. Everyone ignores him. โ€œAnyway,โ€ Katelyn continues. โ€œRiko has been top dog for years, and everyone knows it. But then, three weeks into this term, Neil Hatford enrolls. And the social order is thrown into absolute chaos.โ€ โ€œBecause heโ€™s a prince,โ€ Dan says, mouth full of garlic bread. โ€œHis uncle is a prince,โ€ Aaron says. โ€œAnd only by marriage. Neil is just an asshole.โ€
i wrote a Young Royals(ish) AU for @sillyunicorn's birthday!!!! katiiiii i already wrote the cheesy note on ao3 but you mean a lot to me and i hope u enjoy <3333

For the Royal AU Twinyard backstory... Maybe Andrew, as a second son, was sent away for study? He could have become an apprentice to a knight or a scholar when he was young, maybe even with the Spears, and that's where Bad Shit Happened. And then he could have returned when he became of age, or when their last parent dies and Aaron needs a familiar (ha!) face around
*excited* okay okay this has been brought up a few times now and every time I read it the idea grows on me more, youโ€™re all so smart for it
(I was gonna put the art at the end but this got a lot longer and sadder than I anticipated so. Sometimes Andrew likes to do stuff like this when theyโ€™re stuck talking to important boring dignitaries)
Tumblr media
(Itโ€™s the main reason Aaron develops an incredible poker face)
tws this time are all canon compliant
Honestly yeah! I do think this is great because I want the twinsโ€™ father to be around after birth and for a while, because the whole point of Andrew being sent elsewhere is probably so they can give that extra attention to Aaron and raise him as the heir to the throne. So itโ€™s a perfect balance, in my mind, of a family that cares enough to get Andrew an education/proper upbringing and a father that doesnโ€™t care enough to spend time on a second son.
In my head the Spears would be almost always overbearing, partly because Andrew is the prince and they Do Not want to disappoint the royal family and partly because Andrew is the prince and they immediately assume this little five year old they get on their doorstep is going to be a spoiled brat. Even though he isnโ€™t. And, as you may guess, the only thing they turn a blind eye to is Drake. Drake, their own son, probably the real spoiled brat that gets his way in all things, even with the young prince. Faces no consequences, even when Andrew tries to tell someone. Itโ€™s probably his governess or nanny at first (either way, itโ€™s not really important what the role is, just that sheโ€™s there). And this woman has been Andrewโ€™s biggest advocate since he arrived, she genuinely cares about and is worried for the little prince with his bruises and fear. She cares enough to bring this up to Duke Spear - maybe he really is dumb enough to just be unaware, she hopes - and confront him about Andrewโ€™s treatment. But of course the duke doesnโ€™t do anything to discipline his son. Instead, the governess is fired and a new woman takes her place, a woman that isnโ€™t as outspoken and wonโ€™t ever question the authority of the Spear family. Andrew learns soon enough that trying to tell someone or speak out only makes things worse for himself. Sometimes he still wonders where that first governess is, if sheโ€™s doing well.
Meanwhile at the castle, Aaron is going through his own rigorous training. A lot of the same stuff as Andrew is learning, honestly, with a few added duties and lessons and a lot more official meetings he attends with King Minyard. Itโ€™s a pretty average upbringing for an heir, I think.
Then maybe when Aaron is around the age of ten or so, King Minyard passes. This wouldnโ€™t normally be a political issue, since itโ€™s expected of the Queen to take over and divide the kingโ€™s half of the duties as she sees fit until either she remarries or has an heir become old enough to take the throne, at which time she may pass it to the child or continue to reign until she either passes or is deemed unfit. And, politically, this is exactly what happens. What most donโ€™t see is how grief stricken she becomes and then remains. She canโ€™t pull herself from her grieving, and instead of passing duties to more fitting people, Queen Tilda simply lets young Prince Aaron take on as many duties as he can without breaking down. (Though he has, before. Likely a few times. A kid being pushed past his limit again and again.) Aaron grows up so much faster than he ever should have. Heโ€™s thirteen now and sometimes he shakes with stress.
Then the queen finally gives into her grief and passes as well. If it werenโ€™t for Katelyn, Abigail, and Betsy, Aaron might have been next to lose his mind, leaving the throne empty. As things are, Aaron swallows everything down just long enough have word sent to the Spear family. He wants his brother back. A familiar face and his quiet, desperate hope: someone to just help.
And return him they do. Andrewโ€™s been perfectly competent with all his studies, they say, theyโ€™d even managed to break that stubborn streak. (They didnโ€™t like he wouldnโ€™t speak or shake hands when instructed. They didnโ€™t like being told no.) And yes, itโ€™s a familiar face. Aaron sees the carriage door open, sees his twin for the first time in eight years, but he isnโ€™t sure he recognizes Andrew. Andrew isnโ€™t supposed to have bags under his eyes like this. Andrew didnโ€™t hold his jaw so tightly. And Andrew certainly didnโ€™t answer questions like some kind of unthinking, unfeeling shell.
The first thing Andrew says to Aaron getting off that carriage is โ€œNo.โ€ Itโ€™s quiet, but he does say it. Aaron is confused - heโ€™d thought theyโ€™d still be allowed to hug each other, or shake hands at least - but he does step back and instead ask if Andrew wants to see his room. He can see Andrew relax.
It might hurt Aaron a little when he watches the Spear boy get a hug with no protest, or how Andrew quietly addresses the duke with more than a one word sentence. But heโ€™s not going to ask about it for a while. Heโ€™s the stranger to Andrew here, after all.
(I think Andrew does let him ask. The most he tells Aaron about it - maybe as much as a year later - is that the younger Spear had been much worse at listening than Aaron ever is. It is much better here. At least you and Nicky understand the meaning of โ€˜noโ€™. Leave it at that. And after that Aaron is even more supportive of Andrewโ€™s wide bubble than he was before. He enforces it himself when he has to. And growing up together for longer, with no looming secrets or much reason for animosity between them - it isnโ€™t Aaronโ€™s fault King Minyard decided to hand Andrew off and the twins are both mature enough even at that age to know it - means the twins are much closer than in canon. I donโ€™t think it would be a typically โ€˜fondโ€™ relationship, because theyโ€™ve both still been through it. But they support each other in all things, no questions asked, and always get through problems together.
It doesnโ€™t take much longer than that first year for Aaron to earn the right to touch Andrew, even if he does need to give or show warning before he does. Andrew never says it, but heโ€™s grateful that Aaron is generous with his shoulder pats. It feels a little like the validation he never got anywhere else. And Aaron never says it, but heโ€™s grateful that Andrew is always at his side to tell people โ€˜noโ€™ when Aaron is technically not allowed to.)

Young Maverick Mitchell x reader fic where it starts out super angsty and it ends really sweet between mav and the reader
then i think about summer, all the beautiful times watched you laughin' from the passenger side
Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing [s] : pete โ€˜ maverick โ€™ mitchell x feminine!reader
warning [s] : mentions of : goose, fighting, arguments. | it all gets better, swear.
a/n [s] : requests are open.
Tumblr media
The night felt fresh on your mind, even months later. Pete storming into your small house, the sound of slamming doors and boots slapping the floor. You're in the small kitchen making dinner for you and your boyfriend. The radio playing the top hits of 1986, The Bangles filling the small house with a โ€˜Manic Mondayโ€™. Pete was still your Pete, but he was different. Ever since that fateful day of Nick Bradshawโ€™s death, he was different.
Sleeping in, coming home late. The smell of booze and cigarettes that ejected from him whenever he would get home before a shower. You had mentioned it, but the man would shrug it off as nothing. You decidedly chose not to press in hopes things would go back to the way they were. Peteโ€™s eyes had bags of darkness underneath and his eyes were a blood-shot red that night.
โ€œPete,โ€ You said. โ€œIโ€™m making your favorite. Alfredo with extra sauce.โ€ Pete doesn't find your eyes at all, staring down at the ground as he opens the refrigerator and takes a bottle of beer from it. You take the pot over to the table and set it down on a towel. You scoop some onto his plate and there isn't a thankful word in any way from him.
โ€œPete, honey. We have to talk about this. This isn't healthy. The drinking is getting out of hand. I won't stand back and watch someone I love practically kill themselves.โ€ As you press, Pete gets visibly more tight into himself. His shoulders are practically touching his ears as he clenches his fists into balls of rage. You're staring at him, waiting and anticipating a response from him. All you hear is silence, contradictory to how he usually was. โ€œYou need to stop. This isn't okay.โ€
โ€œYou don't control me. I'm a grown adult, and I can do whatever I please. Go and leave me the fuck alone!โ€ Pete is enraged as he storms up and out of the house, and all you hear is the sound of his bike revving away and speeding down the road.
Pete left you sitting at the dinner table, eating your food you made it silence as his was losing its warmth into the air. You can't bear to stare at the picture on the wall of you and him. It was a simple photo that Goose had taken, but the memories and the emotional ties that held it to your soul entwined with laces of sadness.
You hadn't seen him for five months, seventeen days, and twenty-two hours. You're sitting in The Hard Deck with some of your close friends from college. You catch a glimpse of him. The short, dark-headed man in his flight suit grabbed two beers and walked away. โ€œIsnโ€™t that Pete? Oh hell no.โ€ Your friend Katelyn says, grabbing her purse and wrapping the small jacket she brought into a ball.
The drink in your hand suddenly felt heavy as you set it down against the table. As soon as your eyes click together, you want to disappear and shrink away. He hurt you; but those soft green eyes drag you dangerously into the hole further in. The bubbly feeling in you starts to boil and you take back the drink you have and gain that liquid courage. Who said you would need it?
Here comes Pete Mitchell, walking over to you while holding that eye contact with you. He comes into your vision and he looks better, healthier and happier. His eyes are the color you fell in love with, and he looks much more normal that what he had originally looked like. โ€œPete.โ€ Your voice wavers as you say that name.
The name burns your tongue. Your friends are still standing near you, one of them being encaptured with a random guy who complimented her. โ€œCan we.. talk?โ€ Pete asks you, gulping when Katelyn stares him down. With the extra feet she had on him, it wasn't hard for him to not be scared.
โ€œSure, we can talk. Do you wanna, go outside? Like old times.โ€ You follow him out to the door, the sounds of the bar immediately quietening as the door shuts behind you two. Pete stops on his tracks, turns, and you're looking at him. The silence is uncomfortably long before either one of you speaks.
โ€œAre you stationed here again?โ€ You ask quietly as you sit down on one of the many benches. Pete nods and sits down next to you, twirling a pen around his fingers. โ€œIโ€™m stationed for the next couple of months. Made another admiral mad again.โ€
You and him hold a small and relaxed conversation. Somehow pushing through the uncomfortableness after months of estrangement. The quietness of the night looks over both of you. His knee touches yours, and you can't tell if it's purposely or not. However it enlightens those fireworks once again.
Your hand opens and sits against your leg, giving an opening to him. His hand almost unconsciously slides into yours and holds it softly. You turn your head and Pete is staring at you. The magnetic pull in-between you and him pulls you closer to him, head slightly turning.
His lips touch yours softly, baring sliding over them. His hand goes behind your neck and pulls you close in, as your lips play closely together. โ€œPete... I missed you.โ€ You tell him as you stare into his eyes once more underneath the gorgeous moonlit night.
โ€œMe too. I'm never leaving you again.โ€ Pete tells you. Hugging you tightly into his arms. Whatever roads you took that led you back to him, you thank your lucky stars.

DANCE TIL YOU FIND SOMEONE TO DIE FOR UPDATING??? YES GOD YES!!!
Yes!!!!! It really warms my heart that you still care anon ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿซถ
Adler's PiPs ~ Project: dance 'til you find someone to die for (dtyfstdf)
Premise for newcomers: What if instead of Seth, Riko had tried to get rid of Aaron? The night Seth was supposed to "accidently" die, Ravens found their way to Aaron instead. By pure dumb luck, Kevin answers his call for help and from then on, Kevin and Aaron are thrown together to brace themselves for every deadly trap sent their way. The dangerous game they play isn't just Exy anymore, and their hearts might get caught in the crossfire. >>Here on ao3 or >>here on Tumblr (masterlist of all parts)
Oh dear lord I have not updated sinceโ€ฆ 2021. I am so sorry. Things in the brain and the body got in the way. But that does not mean I have stopped thinking about Kevin and Aaron and the alternate timeline I have created. Iโ€™ve just had to scale down the plot a little bit, for now, as well as my expectations and goals. It became too big for me and that scared me, and discouraged me. So now itโ€™s little bites and little steps! Or what they call โ€œfiller episodesโ€ in the industryโ€ฆ We love those, right?
Up next: Shower Scene. Will it be sexy? Uh, yeah, you could say that. Will it be angsty? Oh yeah. Thatโ€™s the main goal. Iโ€™m drawing a lot from personal experience with physical scars and how it affects routine activities such as washing up. I wanted to give a new perspective on scars, different from Neilโ€™s or Andrewโ€™s, and realized that I could expiate some of my demons through Aaron (like one does), who now has scars similar to mine due to every injury he has suffered in the fic until now. I also just love shower scenes in aftg fics. Theyโ€™re so tense and charged!! Thereโ€™s Kevin, and thereโ€™s Aaron, having an emotional conversation under hot water, only separated by a stall wall. Ugh! The boys have got to get hot and bothered about each other at some point, ya know? Anyhoo, that is the starting point of this new era for the fic. Itโ€™s small in the grand scheme of things, itโ€™s full of dialogue (my pรฉchรฉ mignon), itโ€™s good therapy (for me, not them) and well thatโ€™s the dream for now!
Now, what after that. There are, evidently, unavoidable parts that must happen in order for the story to progress both in its own timeline and according to the canon timeline. There is the infamous New Yearโ€™s in NYC / holidays at the Nest thing, where I want to explore how Kevin copes with both Neil and Andrew locked away, and how Aaron helps (or aggravates) him considering how changed their friendship is. Thea also has to make an appearance at some point, both for the sake of this fic and for her own spin-off with Katelyn. And also so I can end things between her and Kevin in a way that I deem respectful and believable enough for both Kevin and her. I have little fillers here and there that mean the world to me, but they all lead to a First Kiss. They gotta get there at some point right? Iโ€™m not sure yet which of them will make the first move. I got multiple scenarios for each. There most certainly will be blood involved.
I really want to give you a snippet. Iโ€™ve got nothing ready or non-spoilish. But maybe, just maybe, by the time I post the corresponding part, yโ€™all will have forgotten about this? So, um, there:

omg itโ€™s finally open!!! so iโ€™ve been looking for these two fics FOREVER, and i canโ€™t find them anywhere :(
the first one was called โ€œthe way young lovers doโ€ i think, and it was aaron and katelyn helping neil and andrew set up their new house, and it ended with neil and andrew dancing to the song in their yard. it was very cute and i canโ€™t find it no matter where I look
and the second one was aaron meeting katelyns parents for the first time, and they are super conservative and hate aaron, so they invite neil and andrew to be there to take the heat off of aaron. i remember neil saying andrew bought him a cartier bracelet and he wanted the one in a different colour, and just being a brat in general?
also if you have any similar fics with the four of them bonding, i would love them!
thank you guys sooooo much for this blog! happy holidays <3
Tumblr media
OK, so what we have for you is a collaboration where S instantly remembers every fic sheโ€™s ever read BY NAME, and A makes random connections you may or may not want.ย 
The first fic youโ€™re looking for is fluffy, fun, post-canon andreil: โ€˜We Sat on Our Own Star and Dreamed,โ€™ by fuzzballsheltiepants. The author has locked this fic since its original publication, so you have to be logged in to AO3 to find it. If youโ€™ve ever wondered why some works are locked, check out this article from techcrunch.com.
The second fic you mentioned is โ€˜the roads I traveled with you,โ€™ which is part 9 of a delicious post-canon series by Ominous that digs deep into the relationships between andreil, andreil + aaron, the twins, and katelyn/aaron, and the stitched-together family they become. I just checked, and part one of this series has nearly 5,000 kudos! -A

โ€˜I'll Come Back To Youโ€™ here
We Sat on Our Own Star and Dreamed by fuzzballsheltiepants [Rated T, 3815 Words, Complete 2020, Locked]
Aaron & Katelyn have been too busy with their internships at the hospital to visit anyone, but Andrew and Neil just bought a house and they took a few days off to help them move. Fluff and introspection ensue.

progress comes in small steps series by Ominous [Rated T/E, Series, Complete, 2020], featured here and here
Before Andrew & Neil and Aaron & Katelyn, there was Andrew & Aaron. This series tracks the ups and downs of healing a relationship that was broken from the word go.ย 
Part 9: the roads I traveled with you [Rated T, 35542 Words, Complete, AFTG Big Bang 2020] When his brother gets engaged, Aaron doesn't expect it to send his head spinning as much as it does. Marriage has always felt like a dream, or a nightmare, one he never thought either of them would be able to achieve. In that moment, Aaron remembers what he's always known, what keeps his head above water. He wants to be with Katelyn forever. That's never been a question. But marriage hadn't been brought up. For so long it was this abstract concept, a fantasy. He'd always reasoned with himself that it would happen, rationally of course it would, but now...

real quick! i just wanna make a post about how scar runes and rune tattoos work in my mcd au/rewrite
ok so, as i said before, rune scars and tattoos work very differently: this is kind of a lot of reading but i promise itโ€™s worth it just gimme a chance please ๐Ÿ˜ญ ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป
Scar Runes are meant to amplify oneโ€™s own magicks and magical abilities. They cannot be stacked, meaning all Scar Runes on a personโ€™s body must be for the same ability and they must be the same rune in order to work properly. The more Scar Runes a person has, the more powerful that ability. They never fade but they can be corrupted or โ€œkilledโ€ altogether if each rune is scratched out. They can be placed on any part of the body but the magic is most potent when the scars are located on the face. Scar Runes are illegal in most places, and outlawed in all of Ruโ€™Aun as they can be used for very dangerous thingsโ€ฆ like shadow knightsโ€ฆ
Rune Tatoos are different.. Rune Tattoos are used to bestow a magical ability or new magicks to a person, often referred to as a โ€œrune giftโ€. Scar Runes can be used to amplify the gifts given by a tattoo. Because they are able to give a person an entirely new ability and magicks, they are often given at a very young age so that said person is able to learn to use their new abilities as they grow. Unlike Scar Runes, Rune Tattoos can be stacked. A person can have up to 3 (5 if they are extremely strong both physically and mentally) different Rune Tattoos at once, each for a different ability. Rune Tattoos can also be placed on any part of the body, but are most potent when placed on the limbs, notably the hands and feet. These tattoos never fade but can be scratched out similarly to the scars, though this is significantly more difficult and known to cause excruciating pain. Rune Tattoos are an illegal practice in most parts of the world and in almost all parts of Ruโ€™Aun. However, they were not illegal in the village of Zerimar (something i will make a separate post on later..)
Now onto the cultural aspects:
Scar Runes were given to Lady Irene in order to enhance her already existing abilities. Many people of her time tried to mimic this. Some became dangerously powerful and others simply did it improperly and bled out. Scar Runes must be given by someone well versed in said practice, usually a witch, shaman, or warlock.
The people of Zerimar used Rune Tattoos as a part of their culture. At birth, they would be given a name that pertains to the ability their parents would like them to possess, they would then be given their Rune Tattoo by either a witch, shaman, or warlock in their naming ceremony.
Now, when a shadow knight is created, they are given a Rune Tattoo on each of their palms. This tattoo grants them their shadow knight abilities. After doing so, they are given their Scar Runes to enhance these abilities (unfortunately it does not enhance any already existing magicks a person may have). The scars, often called โ€œThe Tearsโ€ or โ€œShadow Tearsโ€ are given to them by something called โ€œThe Clawโ€, a magical staff with an end similar to Katelynโ€™s gauntlets.
Because the Divine Warriors were each given theirs abilities, unlike Irene, they all had Rune Tattoos as opposed to Ireneโ€™s scars.
i just spent half an hour typing all this please give me validation

wait I already asked for sum but I'm asking again โ€” haha sorry
fem werewolf reader x garroth - my street location but after all the chaos so garroth is a werewolf too
nobody knows reader is a wolf as she got bullied for it when she was young, way before high school and she learned how to hide her ears and tail so she always did and eventually it became about of an afterthought at times although it was a topic she hates thinking abt
reader is Katelyn's best friend as they used to play volleyball together in pdh, garroth and everybody else obviously knows her too but Katelyn was closest with her. She always kept her friend group smaller than most and she was knows to be sweet, although she had an attitude and a sarcastic tone at times, which Katelyn loves most about her. tldr garroth and reader become close but he feels detached from everyone, as if he's keeping them at arms length, due to his trauma. Garroth has a breakdown in public when hanging w everyone (for reasons you can think of sorry Juliet ๐Ÿ˜ญ) and idk things happen and reader opens up to make him feel better and smooch they're baes
a/n this is such a fun request i LOVE this !! and tysm for requesting <3 i have a few other requests which I'll definitely get to eventually :)
not proof read !!! sorry, wrote this at half 2am and i really didn't wanna read it through๐Ÿ˜ญ
also the pic is from Pinterest:

Garroth Ro'meave x fem!Wolf!Reader.
Love.
A social construct made up by lonely people who find sorrow in their isolation. Yet, no matter how much versatility love had in the eyes and, most importantly, hearts of people, the pain and adrenaline and even the dependancy love can cause is seen as a fundamental process of loving and being "normal". Now, I know this sounds pessimistic and something that a typical single, and way too desperate to mingle, person would say, I adore the idea of love and the feeling it gives us. Sometimes, life feels so meaningless and unnecessary, so the feeling of love and even the hurt or happiness it can often bring can make us as people feel so much less alien.
Now, the reason i'm so fixated on the topic of romance is due to the current predicament i find myself in. In high school, my friend Aphmau fell desperately in love with Aaron Lycan, it was cute. What was even cuter was the fact they stuck it out and are even currently engaged! Sure, we lost a figurative single soldier who ended up being taken but that was fine, it was fun fos us to gossip about and hope we could have what they have. Kawaiiโ€” no, Nana got into a relationship with Zane which was... unexpected to say the least, but it was nice to know Zane had opened up to someone other than Aphmau and that Nana finally had something she had always wanted. Katelyn broke up with Jeffory in high school too, she went through a tough time but i knew my best friend was going to be okay, and soon enough she was. However, what was NOT okay was that she ended up in a relationship too! I mean, of course she's an adult and i want the best for her and i truly am happy but wow, now i have the least amount of relatability, even to my best friend, all because Travis finally wooed her. I hadn't expected to be the only one on mystreet that was single.
Well, only single female, that is. There was Dante, who still had yet to manage his own love life but he recently went on a journey of self discovery and trying to be happy with who he is and not feel as though he had to change himself in order to be loved romantically. Kim and Lucinda were also single, although they never showed much interest in getting into a relationship, well not Lucinda at least. Kim seemed like she might just be too awkward to even try. But they didn't matter, i wasn't all that close with them, even though Lucinda and Kim felt closer than Dante due to the events of what had happened at the lodge... yeah, those experiences definitely brought us closer.
There was also Garroth...
Garroth Ro'meave, what a character. He's somebody that is incredibly attractive, objectively of course - i personally don't have feelings for him. He has this gorgeous head of sandy blonde hair, long enough to tie up into a tiny ponytail but still short enough to have tendrils of a mellow gold sticking out at the front. His skin was a pretty tan colour, he went outside alot and although he put on sunscreen, he never really bothered to apply more throughout the day so especially after coming back from holiday, his skin was lovely, sunkissed even. And although i could go on and on about his muscles and peculiar yet endearing fashion sense - I've yet to mention his best feature.
His eyes.
They were Sapphires, beautiful gemstones that shone with such luminosity that only the most expensive crystals could achieve. Although, the colour of his eyes moreso resembled Aquamarines, or perhaps even Blue Agates. His eyes were even more radiant when he smiled or laughed, and oh my god was his smile charming to say the least.
Everything about him was just - wow..
But again, don't get an ill idea, I simply see him as a friend. Maybe even a close friend. After the lodge, we had all gotten closer, especially as the feeling of loneliness often felt deadly at times.. Garroth and I had gotten much closer after the lodge, especially at Starlight as many tensions had eased between everyone and people had finally relaxed. Even now, we hang out much more often as we are some of the only single ones out of our close friends so we just gravitate towards eachother.
Unfortunately, I had grown a bit more distant from Katelyn, my ultimate best friend. After coming back from the lodge, we all spoke of course but there was so much.. uncertainty and lack of trust. It was as if we needed to reevaluate our friendships and see if they were genuine and not just Ein somehow hurting us again. We were broken. And of course the others that were not at the lodge didn't understand the change. Katelyn was never truly in touch with her emotions nor how to handle them, let alone other people's emotions. Of course she had realised there was a slight shift in my behaviour, especially as it wasn't just me. Everybody had noticed Aphmau's depression, and Katelyn was growing more confused. She wasn't able to speak to me as seriously as she wanted to or as deeply as she wanted to, so i managed to undermine how i was feeling each time she had asked. But, we both knew that a lack of much needed communication can cause cracks or gaps in friendships. Although it was obvious she felt guilty for not "getting through to me", I knew i was at fault.
Katelyn hasn't tried asking about the lodge or anything else about the time period of which we all came back from there since. She must realise how much of a sensitive topic it is. And, although I sometimes feel lonely knowing she's out having fun not missing me and instead replacing our hangouts with dates with Travis, I'm happy she's happy and I'm happy i have Garroth now too.
Truth be told, Garroth went through unforgettable things, specifically being turned into a werewolf via excruciating pain and suffering. He doesn't like talking about it, and while his ears and tail are always out, he doesn't like people mentioning them or bringing them to everybody's attention. He wasn't ready for the kinds of conversations he knew he was bound to have with everybody if he allowed them to talk about them or even just acknowledge them.
He just wanted to be Garroth, it seemed. And he was never not Garroth to me. I wish he realised that I of all people would understand.
I, too, am a werewolf - well, a wolf at least, but I've always hidden it. Nobody knows, I always intended to tell everybody but i was so so scared.. I was bullied relentlessly in my younger years for being a wolf.
I never had it easy, I was adopted by humans that didn't know i was a pup right away, so when my ears and tails had been shown after they had already signed the adoption papers, they kept me. They didn't know how to raise a pup so they brought me up like they would a human and unfortunately sent me to a human school.
I went to human schools up until high school, so until i was 14. Needless to say, it was the worst. I got beaten physically and verbally, jumped, stolen from and some people even tried to light my fur on fire, so i forever have had a burn scar on my left ear. Although i seemed brave and string after those experiences, i never got over them. Sure, i moved forward, but i dont think i ever truly moved on. Yes, Garroth and I have different experiences but I so desperately sympathise with him as i understand the pain these transitions can cause, and even just what being a wolf can cause. I want him to let me in, but there's no way in hell I'll force him into that. So for now, my friendship with him is enough.
I care for him deeply, and although i said i didn't have any interest in him, it was a pretty obvious lie.. I don't know if i would say i love him yet as its incredibly early to say such rash things but I definitely like him more than anybody should be able to like someone. But after what he's been through, I doubt romance is even on his mind, let alone me.
~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†
I turned on my side, staring aimlessly out of my window that resided next to my bed. The sky was an endless sea of midnight blue which was littered with glimmering stars.
I sighed.
I checked my phone around 10 minutes ago, so it was currently around 04:48 am if i had remembered correctly. It was getting harder and harder to sleep, and it didnt help that i kept thinking of Garroth.
Helping Garroth. Hanging out with Garroth. Liking Garroth. The beauty of Garroth. Just Garroth.
It was like a fever dream, only thinking of one person in millions of separate scenarios, i sound like an obsessed fan. I cringed, knowing i had to get up at about 11am tomorrow at the latest as I had to be at Aphmau's house by 12. She was having a hangout with everybody on mystreet as she felt like everybody had been so tense after recent events, she was always so sweet and looked out for everyone.
Well, I guess I need to at least try to sleep.
~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†~โ˜†
Yawning, my clenched my fists and rubbed my eyes with them, i looked beside me at my bedside table where my digital alarm clock was.
10:13.
I was kinda proud of myself for getting up at a somewhat reasonable time and getting at least 5 hours of sleep. I had some pretty bad eyebags from having sleepless nights often, but i always hid it with makeup.
I got ready within around an hour and a half leaving around 20 minutes to walk to Aphmau and Aaron's place. I was actually really pleased, i felt nice today. I sprayed myself with my favourite perfume and left my place, grabbing my phone and keys before i left. I saw Zane ans Nana holding hands as they walked into Aphmau's house a few houses down, they were super adorable to be honest.
I walked to her house and hugged Aph as she greeted me. I sat down and glanced around the room, immediately realising i had been the last to arrive. I sat down next to Garroth which was one of the only seats not occupied by a couple. Everybody was chatting loudly in a fun light hearted manner, clearly happy to feel free of any tension towards one another. I turned to Garroth, wondering why he had kept so quiet.
Immediately, I had a good idea of why.
His normally honey toned skin looked pastey and blotchy, his eyes were red and tearful and his hair was unkempt. Had nobody else noticed the support he clearly needed??
"Garroth.."
He turned to me and attempted to give me a sweet smile and whilst he looked pretty like usual, it was disingenuine and full of melancholy.
"Yes, Y/N?"
I just looked at him, and my sympathy must have been misunderstood as pity as he suddenly stood up and spoke, "Don't do that."
"Do what?" I got up too, wanting to be on the same level as him.
"Give me that look o-of pity! Don't pity me, Y/N. I'm strong."
"I know that Garroth I justโ€”"
"Just stop!" He exclaimed and although it wasn't loud enough for many other to hear, thank god, it had left me feeling scared for him. I just wanted him to be okay, dammit.
He left Aphmau's house, i quickly ran to the kitchen to say goodbye to Aphmau. I felt no need to expose Garroth to her so i came up with the classic "family emergency" excuse. Somehow, it worked and she allowed me to leave in my hurried state. Assuming Garroth went to his house, I ran over there as quickly as I could, which wasnt too hard considering I was a wolf, and knocked on the door. Unfortunately, it had been left open anyways so I peered in, seeing Garroth curled up on the couch, his ears drooping.
I walked in quietly and closed the door, although his long distance hearning abilities due to his new werewolf attachments heard me.
"Y/N please, i don't want your pity." I sat down on the floor just below him so i could see him face, although his eyes were looking at anything but myself, "Good thing I'm not here to give you pity, then."
His gaze softened and he spoke in a murmer, "Sorry for raising my voice." Tears were threatening to fall down his face, something he unfortunately looked like he was used to. I held his hands in mine, "Don't apologise. You're allowed to be upset, hell it would be abit odd if you weren't. No matter what ears you have, human or otherwise, or if you have a tail or not, you're always going to be my Garroth. This hasn't changed a thing."
His face tensed as tears cascaded down his cheecks, "You're too sweet to me... but no matter what you say, i know you don't understand. Not as well as you think you do. I'm never going to be the same Garroth i was because nobody will see me the same way. But i cannot handle the looks of pity i get..."
I kissed the backs of his hands, rubbing my thumbs soothingly against them, trying to add some sort of comfort that wasn't too invasive or overwhelming. The last thing i wanted was to drive him away. "Garroth, i understand more than you think i do."
He was still refusing to look at me, closing his eyes as he tried to prevent more tears from spilling. I allowed my ears and tail so show, I don't do it often so it felt foreign and hinestly, it was uncomfortable and way too vulnerable for my liking. But i knew it might help Garroth, and i was willing to take the chance.
"Look at me Garroth."
He didn't reply and instead jjst kept his eyes closed, "I said look at me." I tried to command, although it came out quietly and softly as I didn't want to add fuel to Garroth's fire.
He opened his eyes and โ€” "what is this?"
"I.. am a werewolf. Well, a wolf. I was born one."
He was in a state of shock, "I didn't know.." I laughed uncomfortablely, "Yeah.. nobody does. I was ashamed, i got bullied by humans as a kid so much that my fear was domineering and I never really showed them. Having human parents adopt me didn't help either and they didn't understand me."
Garroth looked at me with a look that finally meant he understood, "You understand me because...you went through the lonliness and shame too." I nodded, "Garroth, I care so much about yoy to the point I can't sleep sometimes because of worry or out of happiness knowing I'll see you the next day or even just staying up thinking about how cute your stupid goofy smile is butโ€”"
He gasped and I had thought i said too much and overstepped a boundary, "You think my smile is stupid and goofy?" He inquired dramatically and for the first time in a while, I laughed wholeheartedly, "Shut up, you know thats not what i meant!" "Well thats what you said!"
I smiled at his as our bickering dulled, "But seriously. I like you Garroth, more than a friend should, and you had me worrying so much but in reality, you're always going to be my Garroth to me, ears and a tail aren't gonna change that. Although they are devilishly cute."
He blushed and I removed my hands from his and wiped the tears off of his face. I kissed his cheek as he stuttered in response and merely kissed mine back. We didn't speak after, because words were not needed, the only thing were needed in that moment was eachother.

My Street Stoner Headcanons
This is part 1 in a series of posts I wanna make about different characters in the Aphverse who partake in the devil's lettuce.
Important disclaimer, I don't really like My Street! It peaked with season 2, it's got a lot of problems from day one that remain problems in it's sixth season, they manage to have TWO beach SEASONS and neither one has someone who was easily one of the main characters of the series it was based on, and it really lost the plot. Like way faster than MCD did. But there is stuff to love about it.
I love the idea of My Street as it was initially promised. A slice of lice modern AU of MCD that is a SLICE OF LIFE. No grand stakes of the universe, nobody's getting blown up (unless it's for comedic effect), and nobody's dying. It's about a bunch of young adults, some of whom have known each other since high school or longer, all living on the same street together and the day to day shenanigans they get up to. So basically Season 3 but the entire series is like that. This is my very long winded way of saying that none of the "lore" of My Street matters to me and when you read my headcanons, know that I ignore the canon of My Street more than I ignore the canon of Minecraft Diaries. I don't care about the angels, I just want to get high with my friends.
Anyways wanna smoke some weed?
Blaze is the main weed dealer of My Street. Man has both an indoor and outdoor garden with multiple plants. He and the werewolf trio all live together and they actually help him out with his business sometimes. It's the main way Blaze pays rent on their place and also just a great side hustle. Like Blaze never has to worry about money, and he's constantly giving free stuff to his friends if they want it.
His first ever costumer in the friend group was actually Aaron. The two got high in High School like once when Aaron was inexplicably at Blaze's house. He's still not entirely sure how he got there to this day, the whole experience feels very surreal and liminal. But he remembers how freeing it was, how much stress he was able to let go of. So when college is kicking his ass, he hits up Blaze expecting to just like share half a blunt like they did before, and then they hotbox Blaze's dorm with a gravity bong.
If it wasn't already clear, Blaze is the top stoner of the entire My Street Universe. Some characters are definitely more frequent users than others (we'll get to Travis), but for Blaze, I mean... C'mon. His birthday is literally April 20th. He's the stoner friends to end all stoner friends but he also gets weirdly emotional with people when they're high and basically makes his friends process their shit every now and then by offering to get them high as a stress reliever. It all started with Aaron showing up in his door, getting baked enough to see God, and then randomly confessing that he was actually a werewolf the entire time. Even though. Blaze already knew that.
And then Aaron confesses it to Irena (C!Aphmau) while they're late night gaming. Like she mentions that Katelyn's room smelled funny when she went into it the other day and Aaron instantly jumps to "I've gotten high with Blaze before." So she tries it out of morbid curiosity, and while she enjoys it, she ultimately decides it's not something she wants to do on the regular. Maybe for celebrations of like finishing a semester of college or finally getting that fucking promotion.
Katelyn definitely smokes it the most when she's living with Irena and Nana. Not having a solid job for a few months really fucked with her stress levels, even if she managed to make it work cause her roommates are awesome. But, she'll only do it outside or in her room and then instantly light a candle to clear out the smell, but they both eventually figure it out. Nana literally walks in on Katelyn lighting a blunt in her room when she's just trying to ask Katelyn what she wants on her pizza. There's a pause, Katelyn answers, and then Nana gives her a thumbs up and leaves.
The next morning Katelyn opens up the fridge and finds a small tray of brownies with her name written on the post-it note slapped onto them. Another note reads "For when you want to be subtle about it ;)"
Nana learned that she could put weed into butter and therefore she could make edibles from one of her sisters randomly showing up in town, dropping a bunch of life lessons and also useless bull shit on her, and then leaving and never elaborating. And the thing Nana mainly got from it is to make her own edibles because it's way cheaper than buying them. Nana doesn't smoke because she has asthma so this is like game changing for her.
She doesn't realize that she even has a chance to know who her dealer is because she's super paranoid about buying it. So she like goes through all these extra steps to hide it and hide her privacy and Blaze literally knows what she smells like and knows who she is, but he gets that people can be hesitant for others to know. Just strange that she's getting all weird about it when he and Katelyn were just hot boxing his car when she texted him.
Most characters have an experience like this. Trying it out for the first time, usually with Blaze or on their own, trying to hide it, only to stumble upon one of their roommates high as balls watching Lord of The Rings at 3 am and realize they're all a bunch of pothead losers and that's fine.
Blaze knows all. Like, he has heard everything. People feel randomly prompted to just start telling him stories from their childhood, confessing in the way of like "haha you wanna know something funny I never told anybody?" and then Laurance confesses he's been in love with Garroth since they were freshman. Or Zane confesses to really liking My Little Pony. Or Dante reveals that he's questioning his gender identity. Blaze just knows all these people on deeper levels than most of them realize if they don't frequently hang out with him.
And if they do, then they know that Blaze is no low level just grows for his friends and accepts tips. No, he's a full blown dealer. he's really strict about rules of wherever he lives, especially when he started dealing to raise money so he could pay tuition at PDH, he didn't want it effecting his family at all. and Blaze can literally chuck you through a window so it's hard for anyone to really pressure him into doing stuff he doesn't want to do. And all he wants to do is grow quality product for everyone to enjoy.
It's why his friends don't mind helping him out sometimes. Like Laurance comes over to his house to ask if he can use Blaze's three foot bong so he gets high enough his body stops cramping, but when he gets there Blaze has some classic rock on and he's just packaging orders and Laurance sits down at the table and joins him.
And while hanging out with Blaze, he always has just the most random wack ass stories. He meets so many strange people in the world, he travels a lot because he's technically unemployed, and he has the wildest adventures that people love hearing about.
Travis and Dante's house always smells different. If they're expecting company they'll use some kind of air fresher, or light candles or incense, or do something to get rid of the smell. But if they have nothing going on? If Travis is on break from classes to get his masters and Dante has the weekend off of work? That house is going to fucking reek for three days. They always take care of it eventually, but when they go on what they jokingly call their benders, they don't bother.
Due to this most people would assume one of the two of them is the biggest stoner on My Street (that isn't Blaze). Or maybe Katelyn and Nana. It's actually Vylad. He's just really good at hiding it.
Vylad got insane stoner rng and is able to be tripping balls and have no visual effect on his eyes. Like maybe they look tired, but they aren't bloodshot, even while he's sitting in a freshly hotboxed room. So Vylad likes hiding it because it confuses his friends and that's just always fun to do.
Despite being so judgemental, Zane oddly never makes any comment about this. If someone's room smells funny or Nana slips a special kind of butter into a batch of cupcakes and insists those are her batch, he doesn't say anything. It's not clear whether he's chill with it or not? Both his brothers smoke, even if Garroth is more infrequent about it, so maybe it's becuase of them? But even then he'll get upset at someone for something but not upset at his brothers when they do the same thing so??
Garroth asks Blaze if Zane smokes one day, and Blaze is just in shock because "You didn't know? Why do you think he wears the mask?" "Because he has facial dysphoria?" "Well, that, and because he can take a sneaky hit from his vape when no one's looking."
Zane has never forgiven Blaze for revealing his secret because now Vylad and Garroth keep asking him for hits.
If you have any specific MS characters that I didn't mention in here, or more in depth headcanons, feel free to send me an ask! I have. A lot. Of these.
