oh twitter bookmarks, facebook saved, instagram saved, tiktok bookmarks, tumblr likes, my beloveds (i will never ever open them again)
#be going 'oop ill save that for later' and then finding it in 3 yrs going 'wtf is this'#i still have bookmarks for belle parker. im not sure anyone here even remembers who that bitch is#she was my beloved my most babygirl oc in i think 2016-2018? ish?#she was the It Girl the Solo Blog the creator of the connected ocs universe#but i think the last time i wrote her was. Before Covid so its been a Hot Minute#but i still have stuff bookmarked in instagram in a little section just for her#if she ever comes back im ready for the edits#god she was the first (only?) time i edited icons to have a different hair color#but never permanently bc as we all know i never saved icons i made them as i went I'd write a reply then make the icon from scratch#awful method dont recommend it thats why i dont use icons really anymore#but i remember spending Hours editing purple hair on that bitch and the shade changed every single time#she was iconic tho. absolute queen. blueprint for every oc that came after her and im so serious#list any trait u have seen in a muse i write and i can probably trace it back 2 belle#if i looked back on her backstory im kinda convinced that she and cassie would have major crossover#belle had a twin brother. I think belle and cassie are the only time ive ever had twin ocs?#oh no wait there was my guy whos superpower was controlling glitter and his twin who could teleport and was evil#and the tweevils not ocs tho#do i have more twin ocs. genuinely no clue i am now only thinking ab 2016 era ocs i had#i think some of u may underestimate how little i remember ab my muses and blogs#if its not one of the it girl muses of the month (kurt jason cassie tate) then i can not tell u if they r on my multi or not. i dont know#obvi liam and cooper r special cases bc they technically have solo blogs rn#but at any given time u could just say i write someone that ive written in the past and I'll believe u

MACCC!! for the fanfic ask game thing. ummm i don't know a specific word 2 send but i am intrigued. eyes emoji. (<<on computer and do not want 2 look up emojis just to copy/paste one) what r u writing!!! what's ur fav passage in it so far!!!! i wanna hear abt ur writing!!!!
omg whiskey i forgot we were not mutuals while i was in my fanfic writing arc. omg. i have not written a fic since we became mutuals holy shit !!!!!! absolutelyly insane . ANYWAY i write about my ocs all the time and also silly little self indulgent stories that i dont share bc theyre just for me. BUT. CURRENLTY. i missed writing fics so i am in a months long hiatus of a fic for mission to zyxx which is a silly improv comedy podcast that i was super into right before i got into trigun !!!!!!!! its my beloved ever. however the trigun brain worms overtook me before i finished my fic and i have not gone back to work on it much :( i WANT to finish it tho bc the fandom is very small annnd i literally read every single fic in the ao3 tag in the span of like a week. i need 2 add to it.
ANYWAY basics of the fic (spoilers for mission to zyxx incoming !!) :
the main character has a bug egg laid in his eye and throughout all of season 2 it just grows in his eye and makes it look all fucked up until the s2 finale where the egg hatches and another character pulls his eye out before the bug makes his head explode. << its not as fucked up as it sounds bc this is a full comedy podcast so everything is played for goofs and this moment only lasts a total of like 6 seconds but i am a sucker for body horror especially when it involves gross bugs so !!! i am judt rewriting that scene with my own headcanons ans making it scary and emotional 😌 hi my names mac ghostiezone and i love horror and gay people.
I HAVE TO REREAD MY ENTIRE WIP TO FIND A PART TO POST i cant believe ur making me do this (<< THANK U I HAVE NOT LOOKED AT IT IN WEEKS) apologies in advance for my setup i like 2 write on my phone in the middle of the night so my google docs is in perma-darkmode:
Tumblr media
<< we love an alien mind contrrol parasite that makes a usually cowardly docile character behave like a monster 😌😌😌😌

Holiwis :3c
Hope ur doing ok over there and taking care
1. Loved the lil comic u did! ALEX AND JOTA LOOK SO PRETTY LIKE 😍✨✨✨
Alex the kujo momma bear my beloved 💕💕💕💕💕
(Berserk spoilers: when they get to the island with the fairy queen and stuff)
2. So i was coming back to berserk, just re- reading stuff and saw the part where guts and the moon boi r playing with sticks and it gave me witcher jota and ana (my oc) vibes (cuz papa joots UwU)
Like i just imagen jotaro training ana, him teaching her the way of sword and stuff, but i also think the rest of the crussaders would guide her when it comes to self defense as well!
I feel like it would be a bonding experience! Jotaro big hands just holding ana's tiny ones and making sure shes grabbing the sword right kxksjskksk💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
And when she gets her first monster kill (once shes more older i mean) she feels so accomplished and jota just being proud of her and just going all soft and saying "thats my girl" as he ruffles her hair 😢😢😭💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I love them sm im gonna cry ;; ;;
Thank u for ur time and patience (sorry for the long asks i just wanted to share this hehehee)
Hiii!!! :DD I hope you're doing well too!!
I unfortunately am not so good, because I have a fever that almost reaches 38° ;v; yesterday I had 38° and a half, but idk it just seems to go up and down. But it'll go away!! It's just that now during the fucking hot summer I had to catch that, and I haven't been sick for like y e a r s!! But as I said, it'll go away :'')
1 But knowing that you loved my last post makes me feel so happy!!! NGJDBDJDB💖💖💖 Love the tags you put in the reblog, thank you so so so much for those and for your kindness 💖💖💖
2 MY HEART-- I- THIS IS LITERALLY SO FRICKING CUTE WHAT THE FU-
Tumblr media
Gngnthtnfnth Jotaro being a dad teaching to his child Ana how to use a sword- really that concept os one of my biggest weakness :''D
He is so dedicated to teach his baby how to fight, because he knows that she has potential!!
AND THE HAIR RUFFLE??? I'm dead, THAT'S SO WHOLESOOOOME GBGBGBGBGBGBG💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I loved that scene in Berserk and I'm loving this scene the same way *sob sob sob*
Omggg thank you for sharing this, really
o͡͡͡͡͡͡╮༼;´༎ຶ.̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̨̨̨̨̨̨̨.̸̸̨̨۝ ༎ຶ༽╭o͡͡͡͡͡͡💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

ALL OF THE QUESTIONS!!!!!!! for ur ask game
Ohoho!!! excited beeps!!! Thank you so so much, im p excited to do this woo
Answers under the cut!
1. Who are your favourite character(s) at the moment?
I definitely have had some pretty strong Harbinger brainrot over the past few weeks (Dottore, Pierro, Pantalone and Capitano especially), but as always Ayato and Zhongli hold a very special place in my heart!! Yae Miko and Tighnari also got me going a bit feral right now ngl
2. Who are your least favourite character(s) at the moment?
There are definitely a few characters who I can't stand (female pyro vision wielders---) but I feel like that's more to do with how they've been written in the game, I feel like I could be convinced to like a lot of them once I've read some good headcanons and such!
EDITED LIKE 8 HOURS LATER BECAUSE I REMEMBERED HOW MUCH I HATE THE R/AIDEN SH0GUN YUCK YUCK YUCK DEFO LEAST FAV OF ALL TIME EVER
3. Which character(s) do you lowkey despise but can't stop thinking about?
SCARAMOUCHE he's a gross little rat and i want to pull his hair -- also same with Al Haitham i just grrr bark (dont come for me i defo dont actually hate either of them asdjkhksdfg)
4. Which character(s) do you identify the most with?
I have pretty strong connections with a few characters throughout the series, but I vibe really hard with Xiao and Gorou (if you couldn't already guess--) and sometimes Sucrose! There's also something about Albedo that's got me like. Hm. Nods. Same hat.
5. What are your favourite headcanons you've come up with?
My appearance headcanons for Capitano are definitely right up there - if MHY disappoints/diverts a lot I think I've come up with enough original content and ideas for him to just make my version a fully fledged OC.
I'm also pretty fond of a lot of my neurodivergent headcanons for certain characters (OCD Pantalone isn't something I've seen around but it's definitely something I incorporate into a lot of my writing with him).
OH ALSO Adepti being empaths !! That's a very special headcanon I hold dear to my heart, I dunno why I came up with it but I really really like it, especially with Xiao.
6. Favourite headcanons belonging to other people?
I saw a Pyro Delusion Pantalone headcanon the other day that was really really super cool, I'd never even considered him having a delusion until I saw that and it vibed!!
Generally I enjoy any trans or ND headcanons for characters too, even if they don't line up with how I view them/characterise them it's really nice to see such a broad range of ideas for one character!
ALSO DESI KAEYA MY BELOVED AUGH
7. Do you have any self-ships (romantic or platonic)?
So many. So so many. I have a variety of 'sonas' for various AUs/timelines (though the one that I've made the most content for is. An arranged marriage AU with Ayato jkdskjhgf) and I make a lot of varying content for them (which I probably won't be sharing here because I'm shy but just know. I love them.) with all different characters and different relationship dynamics, I've been shipping myself (or versions of) with fictional characters for years and it's a huge comfort to me and such a fun fun way to experiment with writing different scenarios and such!
8. Thoughts on alternate universes (AUs)? Any favourites?
I LOVE AUs so much i have about a million myself and I adore seeing the kinds of things others come up with !! A lot of my writing tends to be done in a non-canon AU where the events of the game havent/don't happen just to keep things simpler hfkjhsdgk
I'm always an enjoyer of modern AUs, but at the moment i'm holding a particular fondness for the 'Fatui adopt Kaeya AU', which lowkey may have slightly inspired the last fic i started working on ehe
9. If you were from Teyvat, where would you live?
Mondstadt!! It just seems chill and nice and there's such a wide variety of people there, the vibe seems accepting and laid back and it seems like lots of people from different walks of life congregate there! Failing that maybe Sumeru just because mmm pretty
10. What kind of Vision would you have?
Anemo, probably! That's the one i most commonly write my sonas with! Though I don't think I'd be entirely opposed to a Dendro vision in some cases too!!
11. What weapon type would you use?
Hmm I guess maybe catalyst? (something something not another god damn anemo catalyst short model boy)
12. Favourite fandom tropes/goofs?
One i always find funny is like. siblings with big age gaps getting along great (Albedo/Klee, Ayato/Ayaka, Jean/Barbara, etc) but ones closer in age constantly trying to MURDER each other (Diluc/Kaeya, and Aether/Lumine r the only ones i can think of rn).
I also love the found family tropes I see around, and the Nahida and Scara content I've seen recently have been top notch!
13. Least favourite fandom tropes/goofs?
It's a common thing with a lot of games and characters where the fandom reduces them down to a core trait or two and act like it's completely canon, or take certain lines and such out of context and base their entire characterisation off of that - on a surface level theyre silly and fun but when it's literally everywhere
A few i can think of off the top of my head are like 'senior citizen zhongli' where he's reduced to nothing but a bumbling old boomer and the whole 'stalker/obsessive ayaka' bit.
14. If you could change anything about one characters design, who/what would it be and why?
I think some of the adepti should have more non-human traits (xiao deserves horns tbh) and as a general statement i'd love to see characters with facial/body hair and more variety in body types or at least skin tones! I understand it's not exactly like realistic but it would be nice
there was also an interesting detail with Zhongli's design that was fixed - he wore his vision backwards! I think it was super neat and an interesting reference to the fact that it's not a real vision, but sadly they fixed it :(
15. What's your favourite voice line from the game?
I know a lot of people joke about Zhongli's idle lines being really annoying (and while hearing the oSmAnThUs WiNe line 8 times in just as many minutes can get really irritating) but i find them kind of comforting - I play in English and really enjoy the cadence of his voice, it's super comforting to me, so most of his lines are big faves - I also find his 'disliked gift' line super funny where he tries to redirect the player by telling them stories ashkjgf
I also like how Kaeya teases you for standing around (though it kinda makes me wanna flick him), and Tighnari's "who ate a poisoned mushroom this time?" join line is fun!

A Little Help
Tumblr media
PAIR: idol!jungkook x reader
GENRE: smut. Best friends to fuck buddies kinda?
WARNINGS: pure filth dick riding, penis slap/teasing pussy lmao, mention of a blowjob, curses and uhh I think that's all?
W/C: 1.3k
SUMMARY: jungkook always spent his birthdays alone and with his hand. You, like the good friend you are decide to change that for him at least once but what happens once things start getting a little too.. out of hand?
A/N: helloo this is kinda like a comeback?? I think I'll finally be able to post the many fics l have! I'm so excited*-* and so.. of course I wanted to start by posting this even tho it's a bit late for jungkook's birthday! My beloved man ♡3♡. Anyways, enjoy!! As always, let me know what you think.. this may or may not have a part two👀.
A/N.2: this story switches between OC's pov and jungkook's pov!
Tumblr media
It's his birthday and you wanted to give him a surprise. he usually spent his birthdays alone as he didn't had anyone to really spend it with; but he got a message from you. his beloved friend.
a friend he loved way too much but there was nothing more than that. the message said you wanted to give him something for his birthdayㅡIt doesn't matter how many times he said that you didn't need to, you insisted until he accepted. he recognized then your efforts and charm to compile him into anything. but he did not exactly expected you to give such.. gift. or more like.. to ask for such thing as a.. "gift".
"why?"
"because I want to?" she says as something obvious.
"but we are friends?"
"so? you always spend your birthdays alone and, with your handㅡso what's better than me to change that?" she continues, as if it was something easy.
"but—wouldn't that destroy our friendship?"
now she laughed at that.
"jungkook, really? destroy?" big laugh. "you're acting funny right now." she grins. "don't act as if we haven't kissed before!"
"yeah but that's different! we were a lot younger back then and that doesn't compares to what you want right now?" you reply to her feeling defensive but there was still some humour on your eyes.
she rolls her eyes at you, scoffing. "do you want this or not?"
you contemplate for a few seconds but.. how could you deny this.. offer? ㅡ or whatever you could call this..
y-you can admit you might have.. a little crush on her ever since jimin introduced you to her in schoolㅡbut that's! It!
it's not like he has imagined you jumping or sucking on his dick befo—no! he could never!! r-right?
anyways,
you knew that if you let this happen you.. you'll definitely want more ok? you haven't had any pussy in such a long time and sheㅡto be your first after so long? damn. you must be dreaming right now.
"y/n.. you know how stupid is to even ask that," a giggle leaves your mouth. "of course I... agree." followed with a lower voice.
"agree or want this?" she keeps teasing you; which makes you respond with an eye roll. "I.." sighs, "want this".
"let's do this then."
she smiles and with those last words here you were, getting head from your best friend. your.. best. friend.
how crazy.. right?
but damn was she this good; making you wonder why you hadn't done this before.
"stop or else I'll cum." you pant between your teeth.
leaving your dick with a loud pop she ask, "don't you want that?"
"yes, but not yet." then you moan, "fuck. don't I get to feel you?"
"that wasn't part of the plan." she slowly smirks, biting her lips.
and damn she was a tease. who'll knew.
"fuck that shit y/n. let me fuck you right here, right now."
placing her on your lap, you feel the way her pussy clenched as soon as you introduced one finger in it.
"you really wanted this huh?" you give a little slap on her clit. "so fucking wet.."
the noises making him go crazier and needyerㅡwho'll knew you'll be so fucking hot.
taking your underwear away while sticking his dick out, "seat on me."
your voice is so demanding but you couldn't control yourself. she wanted your birthday present to be like this? ha.. of course you'll take good advantage of that.
something like this might not happen twice.
the moment she introduces your dick to her pussy though? damn. everything started spinning around; you swear you've never felt such a good pussy like hers.
"so fucking warm.." and with your head leaning backwards, you start fucking her fast after she adjusted to you.
Tumblr media
who knew he'll feel so good.. fuck.
"so big.."
"yeah baby? you love it don't you?"
god damn it. why does he has to sound so fucking hot and desperate? It was truly making you feel crazier over him.
when you proposed this idea to him you did not thought about fucking him. at all. just wanted to give him a blowjob, that's itㅡbut damn.. he was so hard and his dick looked so big.. head all red and pretty.. you could not resist him anymore. you knew jungkook was hot but to see him in this new light.. this side of him.. it was a fucking new experience.
I'll never look at him the same—you thought.
"let me-" you lean closer to him wrapping your arms around his neck. "let me do it for you, it-it's your gift after all." you said, but he manhandled your hips. fucking you rough.
"fuck. jungkookㅡreally, plea-please."
"hmm, sso fucking good. sshit." he moans on your ear and a pool of new arousal hits you.
"god damn it." his left hand slaps your ass.
"do I turn you on this much baby?"
you are moaning like crazy, can't even find the right timing to say any coherent word. his pounding on you feeling so delicious.
"how bad you wanted me to fuck you hm?" he pants with another slap this time taking his dick out.
"go to the bed. all fours."
It's embarrasing how you obey him so fast.
already splashed in his bedㅡall ass up, face buried on his gray blankets..
his weight tells you he's right behind you as his dick starts teasing your walls very slowly..
up.. and down,
up.. and down.
It makes you more horny. leading to your arousal fall through your legs and jungkook couldn't believe it.
he then slaps your clit this time with his dick. continuing to tease you with his slow motions.
"tell me, how long were you waiting for this?" he voices out a raspy voice while massaging your ass.
"this ass is making me feel crazy—it's so perfect." another slap, but this time to both your ass cheeks. "answer me."
Jiggling your ass to his dick, you try to make him fuck youㅡbut he slaps your ass once again. "I told you to answer baby.."
"gghh—so long. I've wanting this for so long."
"Is that so?" he softly chuckles in arousal. "then why you didn't tell me sooner hm?"
"I—" you managed to give yourself pleasure through your clit by sliding up and down his dick.
that got jungkook fascinated with how eager you were for him.
"I didn't know ho-"
"hm, what's important now is that we get to do it in this right moment, don't you think?" he purrs as soon as he introduces his dick into you, making you cry a moan.
"oh- ffuck yes."
"If I knew you'll be like this," taking his dick out by introducing it back again, he fucked you deep and hard.
"this eager.." and again.
"needy.." and again.
"wet fucking pussy" and.. again.
"I would've asked to fuck you myself."
and with that he picks up his rapid pace. a hand on your clit and you feel closer to cum.
"If you cum—please cum inside, please." you said, very desperate and out of breath.
fucking yourself back into his dick; making him stop for a few seconds, just admire the way you do it.
"you're such a good girl." and begins to fuck you again. "alright baby, I'll do that." he grins.
taking your head to the side looking at him, you smile and say, "for your gift".
he smiles back, out of breath. hair sticking to his forehead, lips red.. you both drenched in sweat..
he leans closer. hands tracing your back, putting you downㅡfucking you way deep and teasingly hard..
he kisses you. "the best gift."

tagged by my dearly beloved @clarionglass​ ♡
1. Why did you choose your url?  i was fourteen, unfortunately, and while looking for an url i looked up longest words in the dictionary. monimolimnion is the bottom layer of lake water that doesn't mix with the other layers (and is often saltier). the lonerism of it appealed to me, and as a result nobody has been able to spell my url for eight slutty, slutty years
2. Any side blogs?  Not ones I use often, but yes! this account is my true nest of shiny objects however there’s @sadghoststudios​, which is the account for my game development projecs! and also @grumpsasdogs, which was exactly what it sounds like (the game grumps in photos where they resemble photos of dogs). the project didn’t last very long but it was fun while it was active!
3. How long have you been on tumblr? what feels like forever but since uhh 2012 ish. second last year of school!
4. Do you have a queue tag?  i do! it is, imaginatively, #queue
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place? a friend (hi ash!) was on it and i wanted to reblog doctor who things. i think?? it was so long ago lmao
6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp? every time i see this art of franziska my heart leaps outta my chest. pretty easy choice (before then it was a christmas icon of NSP that stuck around for... five years after the holiday period ended, and then before that it was my first real internet icon, a button of daisy from mario that i made. she still exists on my ao3! the last bastion of daisydom...)
7. Why did you choose your header? it’s... eevee i think??? i thought the gif was cute, and i think i didn’t have a mobile header at the time. my header/sidebar image on my desktop blog is my oc wynne, who i wrote a whole ass novel about during quarantine and my blog title is from the Skyhill song Firefly, which came out when i was very emotionally malleable and it has been a part of my psyche ever since
8. What’s your post with the most notes? this shitpost during the #B00B69 sickness that swept the ace attorney nation. i like to think i contributed to fandom science, in my own way. (sorry collab)
9. How many mutuals do you have? no idea numberwise but i cherish each of y’all i really do
10. How many followers do you have? 440! most of them are bots or inactives left over from before The Great Pornageddon, but hi, anyone who still exists or who followed from after then! getting a little (1) in the activity is always a little boost for my neglected dopamine machine and i appreciate u greatly
11. How many people do you follow? 549! it’s. a lot!
12. Have you ever made a shitpost? unfortunately yes (see the above most notes q)
13. How often do you use Tumblr each day? i scroll to the end of my dash (usually), in short bursts before the dash gets too much for my laptop. praise jeebus for the ‘jump to where you left off’ button, when it works
14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? that would require me to actively interact with people on this site and i do not (with a few treasured exceptions) do that
15. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts? make me sad. make me anxious. do not enjoy
16. Do you like tag games? yeah dude even if i forget to actually do them 99% of the time. the act of being tagged is to be seen. it’s good
17. Do you like ask games? ^^^
18. Which of your mutuals do you think is Tumblr famous? all of them are famous in my mind (but i think Jazz @ daddywright​ is like. sort of a big name fan in narumitsu circles! which is entirely deserved have you seen their writing)
19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?  yes i do no i do not want to talk about it
tagging all of my mutuals! if you see this, you r tagged ♡

Alright ok let’s do this (Thank u so so much for all the questions lmao <3)
1. Matos, they enjoy coffee with a lot of sugar and honey, but will take it black occasionally.
2. Adem, he has a lot of rage at starfleet for many different reasons (family issues, war issues, etc) and enjoys defying authority, the only person in command they listen to is Matos tbh
3. Breba <33 he loves coming up with really extravagant engineering ideas and then draws like 2 pages of their design and never touches it again because he’s 10
4. Breba again, Dave finds his drawings (and manages to decipher them) and is like. U wanna try building this in the holosuite? Of course, as holosuites do, it goes completely wrong
5. Hmmmm Breba Maybe because he’s a ferengi, but tbh probably Lowver, she has a good mind for capitalism I think, she might cry if xey win tho
6. Breba. I think you’d give Breba a nice good uncle hug.
7. Kahdghsjk I keep answering all of these with Breba… but it’s true he has the largest action figure collection
8. Lowver, while I headcannon vorta r sensitive to light she Hates the dark and refuses to go into dark places without someone with xem . She has absolutely done that thing where xey jump into another persons arms.
9. Breba obvs he has an adorable little bear <3 and also Solar! He has a small stuffed bird toy he got when he was very little and he’s kept it for a long time, Solar really enjoys keeping things I think
10. Miyar, while she hates Going Places she does enjoy sand and water and sun, and misses Cardassia very very much, so if she ever did manage to get a date she’d take them somewhere like that
11. Lowver. She can’t swim
12. Hmmmmmm maybe solar?? He’s a creative person, but also very punctual so he wouldn’t stay up that late so idk
13. Oh Adem def <3 he refuses to think about the actual world around her and will spend entire days in sickbay talking to Miyar just to like Not Have To Be There, I think Adem becomes an honorary medical officer after a bit
14. Matos <3 she takes it for medical reasons but also will give you some (if you are of legal age for your species)
15. Brebaaaa my beloved <3 Dave gets him a set of skin safe markers and lets him go wild
16. T’athy lmao, she thinks she wants to Work and Command but what she really wants is like. A home. She also loves home decor even though she won’t admit it
17. Eh
18. Matos or Miyar, it’s the one thing they agree on
19. T’athy and Adem, but for different reasons. T’athy says the replicator is fine, it’s just fine. And Adem claims replicated food is BETTER then prepared food
20. Miyar if she was feeling Incredibly Self Destructive, dw Adem will help her get home
21. None of them but Breba will ask Rom many many questions about engineering and be extremely excited to see another ferengi in engineering
22. … Matos
23. Adem, he loves talking about herself but refuses to get into anything feelings related
24. Lowver :3 she likes fruit but not really sweet fruit
25. Breba, he doesn’t like sour things
26. Matos in spirit but Miyar maybe actually could’ve helped if she wasn’t um. self centered and evil
27. Uhh Lowver probably because she was a dominion worker before she got better lmao
28. Adem <3 like I said, enjoys escapism and replicated food
29. Breba, he just forgets sometimes!! Dave always makes him do it tho

There's a post that's essentially a PSA about how villain characters are villains for a reason and that if you can't handle a not nice character or a character that isn't going to change themselves because of 'twue wuv' or because someone wants to help them 'be a better person' then you shouldn't write with villains/antagonists. This post makes the rounds through roleplayers about once or twice a year or so, but this particular time around I'm seeing a lot more commentary than usual. I took a peek.
Some of it I deeply resonate with as someone who writes big bads either as part of plots or as my own OCs. I've even recently done a round as Shigaraki in a BNHA roleplay group. But some of it actually led to me unfollowing people because there's some really odd fixations on either what villain RPers are supposed to do, what they can do, what they shouldn't do, IC/OOC mixing, and also a whole huge side of gate-keeping that I didn't expect to see.
This gets wordy so I'm putting it under a cut. 
Before I dive into this, I'm going to go the basic bitch route of defining both what a villain and antagonist are since I see people using both and oftentimes both words have different meanings to different people based on their experiences in roleplay. 
Villain noun 1. a cruelly malicious person who is involved in or devoted to wickedness or crime; scoundrel. 2. a character in a play, novel, or the like, who constitutes an important evil agency in the plot.
Antagonist noun 1. a person who is opposed to, struggles against, or competes with another; opponent; adversary. 2. the adversary of the hero or protagonist of a drama or other literary work
The current topic at hand is largely about villains rather than antagonists because of the more nefarious and cruel nature villains tend to lean towards. Antagonists don't have to be 'bad' to be an antagonist - they just have to be in opposition to another’s goals or competing outright against them. With that out of the way...
Villains and antagonists both are, and have always been, vital to a roleplay community. The same reason why heroes and 'good guys' are also vital to a roleplay community, and that reason is because to have too much of one or the other makes things incredibly stale.
But like anything in roleplay there always need to be plenty of communication between both sides on expectations, desires, goals, limits, and whatever else needs to be discussed to allow a plotline or scene to go smoothly. Even more important to have these discussions before things really take off. Not during, not after three scenes, not after the first major storyline involving two groups, not after the first problem arises but b e f o r e you dive into anything engrossing.
This keeps from either side being blindsided by something they may not be comfortable with or to keep from having a clash of expectations. Some groups want a throw-away villain or a simpering hero to further a plot along but that might not be what you have in mind for your character. Neither side is bad or wrong for their wants and that's typically the cue to excuse yourself and pursue something more in line with your desires.
What IS wrong is to try and force what you want onto others.
"But if this villain is in the city they should expect to be killed on sight!" Character death is not okay without player permission. This is a two-way street that all roleplayers expect from each other. If you don't want someone to do that to your character than why in the hell is it okay to expect to be able to do that to someone playing a villain?
A villain can absolutely be in a city if they're willing to accept possible IC repercussions for being spotted and recognized on the street if they have a bounty or a group after them. The same concept applies to any character not a villain that might also have a bounty on their head for x, y, z reason. Frankly? That can spawn some hella awesome conflict that can turn a boring night in the city into something more entertaining.
"I've seen villain characters be used as an excuse for someone to play an asshole." I've seen plenty of non-villain characters be assholes. We all have. Some of my 'good' characters can be grumpy little bastards but that's just part of how the character is and not indicative of whether or not they have dark goals in mind or just had a shitty day. Writing someone off because they're playing a villain who is also an asshole makes about as much sense as writing off any other character type just because they too are an asshole. If it bothers you that much? Maybe re-evaluate how much you separate IC and OOC.
"It's a power fantasy." Frankly? So is playing a WoL. So is playing the beloved hero of a plot. It's just a different form of it on the opposite side of the spectrum. A lot of peoples' characters have some form of power fantasy involved even to a small degree. It's how it's played and how it's executed that's important. If someone is respectful about it, communicates, and works with the boundaries of those they write with then there's nothing wrong with that. But just like with the asshole bit: if you're writing off villains, then you best be prepared to write off the heroes too or you end up being a colossal hypocrite.
"The guards would absolutely gun for them if they were caught!" I addressed this to a degree in my response to the original post in how it's a bit of a mixed bag to try and give a lot of power to NPCs in a setting where people ignore guard NPCs during even mundane things like getting into a brawl. If someone is roleplaying a guard to try and break up a conflict? That's one thing and it's a part of the scene to work with the player of that character type same as you would for anyone else involved. But trying to bog people down and force them to acknowledge the power of the NPCs, again, goes into the whole matter of forcing other people to acknowledge such as well when 80-90% of us don't even on a good day.
Every decent villain roleplayer I've ever encountered in the last twenty years will do the same shit any other decent roleplayer does regardless of the kind of character they play: be respectful, be kind, communicate, give-and-take, and help make the writing fun for those involved. 
Learn what you can and can't handle. If villainy is too much for you to work with or accept as part of roleplay or if you can’t accept that there’s a difference between someone who is a good villain RPer and someone who is a shitty one? There's a block and ignore function for a reason. Those of us who take pride in writing in-depth, interesting characters will appreciate having one less person trying to tell us how garbage we are.

Ch. 20: Happily Ever Now
Fandom: Doctor Who // Pairing: 11th Doctor x Female OC
Chapter summary: Avalon and the Doctor finally go out on their first date. As happy as they are to be together, they both can't help but think of the future that's coming for them both.
Taglist: @ocfairygodmother @anotherunreadblog @maaaaarveeeeel​ [If you’d like to be added to this specific OC’s stories/edits, send me a message!]
Tumblr media
Avalon had just emerged from her bathroom wrapped in a towel after a long, relaxing bath. She could still smell the lavender scented bath bomb she'd used. She just loved the scent so much! She made it to her closet when she heard a small noise from her door. She peered around the closet door and saw a folded, old looking, paper on the floor.
"What?" she crinkled her nose and walked over to pick it up. In doing so, she found a second smaller paper under it.
At first glance she knew the first paper was made to look old. There was a laced purple bow keeping the paper folded and, as beautiful as it was, Avalon pulled it off and opened up the paper that turned out to be a letter.
My dearest Ava,
It has come to my attention that we have not had a first date. It's frankly ridiculous that I have the most amazing woman at my side and I haven't taken her out on date! I would love to spend one whole day with you and no one else . If you agree, then I shall await for you in the console room in one hour.
Yours truly,
The Doctor.
Avalon felt her entire face warm up after reading the letter. She checked the second smaller paper and found it was a P.S. She had to laugh.
P.S. If you accept, dress for heat. Literally. It's going to be like summer.
She looked up at the ceiling with a dreamy smile. "Did you see him write this for me?" It was silent for a few seconds but then Avalon heard a light hum. "Well, my Fairy Tale Man just wins for today." She folded the letter again and brought it to her vanity desk and checked herself in the mirror. "I have a lot of work today, don't I?"
The TARDIS hummed and Avalon would dare to say it was an outraged hum.
She giggled and looked up at the ceiling. "You are far too kind to me, you know? I still don't understand why but I'm happy about it. Now," she turned away from the vanity desk and brought her hands together, "I have one hour to make myself look gorgeous. No wet curls-" she wrapped a stark wet curl around her finger, "-and towels! And I absolutely need stunning clothes! Can we do it!?"
The TARDIS hummed loudly, making Avalon laugh again.
"I'm taking that as a yes! Let's do it!" Avalon determinedly marched for her closet to start searching for those out-of-this-world clothes!
~ 0 ~
The Doctor was making endless rounds at the console trying to wait like he promised. He was sure the TARDIS was laughing at him with all the humming she was doing. "Very lovely dear, absolutely lovely," he scowled at the rotor. "I know you can't help favorite Avalon but do remember I have known you for centuries. I deserve a little encouragement from you." And right now he could use all the encouragement and support he could get. He was about to go on a date with Avalon, their first date, and he had no idea if she would like what he set up for them. He'd covered his basis and made sure that Amy and Rory were nonethewisers about it. They and the Sapling were off at a beach to enjoy their day. Today was going to be all about him and Avalon, just them.
It was nerve-wrecking.
"You are 909 years old, get a hold of yourself," the Doctor berated himself. He would try not to think about the insane age gap between him and Avalon but right now he needed to remember his age. He couldn't be this nervous over a date - he'd done a lot more than just date in the past so why was this one date different?
Because it's Avalon you idiot. The Doctor came to a stop and deeply exhaled. It was Avalon. The girl he was head over heels for. The girl he was in love with and who had no idea about it.
Somebody cleared their throat and since the only people in the TARDIS was him and Avalon, the Doctor quickly spun around to find his ginger.
Don't spin so fast! That's not cool! It was then that the Doctor panicked as he realized that he needed to learn how to be cool, desperately. He always said that he was cool but Avalon tore that to pieces each time she came into a room looking all...well...the way she looked right now.
She really took his suggestion of wearing something for summer. She'd chosen a khaki, tie-front, peekaboo dress with thin spaghetti straps. Its skirt was just a bit flared so it wasn't tight, although the bodice seemed to be just right.
Once the Doctor felt his face heat up he knew it was time to look away, literally anywhere else...but his eyes drifted back to her each time. He caught sight of her legs and suddenly the heat was there to stay.
She'd paired her dress with pink, suede lace up sandals with just a hint of a heel. Her hair was left in its natural curly state with one jeweled rose clip at the back of her hair holding the bump on top of her head. Her curly hair was sometimes her worst enemy.
Avalon slowly made her way up the glass stairs to the console and nervously stopped a few feet from the Doctor. "I got your letter..."
The Doctor took one deep breath in and smelled her lavender scented perfume. Amazing. He was also aware of her soft pink lips were enhanced with a shade of lipstick that...that made him want to forget everything and just kiss her all day. "Yeah..." When he realized that wasn't at all cool, much less suave, he shook his head and started again. "I meant yes, that-that was...that was me."
Dammit. He wasn't getting it right, was he?
Avalon blushed when she remembered the letter's words. "I've never been asked out on a date through a letter..."
"Is that...is that not cool?" the Doctor blinked, panicking all over again. He intended on being different when it came to their relationship and he thought, since Avalon loved everything classical, that an old-fashion letter might be better than him stammering out the question. At the very least it could be more memorable.
Avalon sweetly smiled and leaned forwards to kiss him on the lips. "That was very sweet," she tapped his lips afterwards. "Very romantic."
"That...is what I was going for," the Doctor nodded, slowly finding his voice again. "I will always try to be like that, my princess."
Whether she wanted to or not, Avalon blushed again. It was ridiculous, she knew, to get all these butterflies in her stomach at a word that almost anyone would use on their partner. But, when the Doctor used it, she could almost believe that she was a princess. It didn't sound cliche at all. It had meaning.
He has saved you plenty of times, she reminded herself.
She stepped closer to him and drew her hand over his chest. "And what shall I call you? My knight in shining armor? My prince?"
"I like the first one, makes me sound cool." The Doctor grinned smugly, especially when he remembered that's how Avalon had dreamed of him. "Yeah, I'm your Knight in shining armor."
Avalon chuckled. "Not like you haven't been one in my dreams..."
"Was I? I totally forgot," the Doctor feigned surprise. "Didn't cross my mind one bit..."
"You're too modest but I'm not going to get into that right because somebody, I'm not pointing at anyone..." Except Avalon did just that with her excitement sparkling in her eyes. "But somebody promised me an entire day that'd be all about me."
"W-well that wasn't...I said to us..." the Doctor pointed at himself and Avalon, and though she seemed to nod that she understood...
"Right, about me," she slowly went around the console, brushing her hands over the controls.
The Doctor playfully rolled his eyes at her, figuring he wasn't going to get anywhere with her and honestly...who cared? He wanted to spend the entire day with her so maybe it was just about her. "I've found the perfect place for you, my dear Ava," he went the opposite way around the console, soon meeting her halfway. "And the best part of it is that we won't have any interruptions."
"Oh, and why wouldn't we want any interruptions?" Avalon played innocent so nicely that the Doctor almost believed her, almost. "Are you planning on doing something...?"
The Doctor truly hated how quickly the heat returned to his face but he'd taken one look at her dress again, specifically at the exposed shot he got of her midriff, and it was all downhill from there. She was teasing him so subtly and yet so obviously, he absolutely hated it. So why was his body almost on fire?
"Fairy Tale Man?" Avalon stepped closer to him and brought her hand up his arm 'till it came to rest on his shoulder. "You were saying?"
"R-right, uh...I meant to say..." the Doctor did his best to look only at her eyes but she still somehow made her innocent gaze so flirty. "I want a proper date with you where there's no danger, no aliens...except for me," she chuckled, "And especially, no interruptions from beloved Pond 1, Pond 2 and our dear Sapling."
Avalon swayed her head in agreement. It sounded very nice. "It has been a bit constant, huh?"
"YES!" the Doctor nearly shouted, "I love them, I really love them but every time we're in our little moments...they come in and interrupt us. Like, last night, when we were watching a movie and...we got...distracted," Avalon blushed but remain silent as he continued, "They almost walked in!" the Doctor frowned, "Or how about when we were in the archery room and we were having a little moment...and they almost caught us! Every time I want to kiss you or just be alone with you for a while they come in and I'm tired of it! And the Sapling! He's too innocent to figure out that sometimes we just want to be alone."
Avalon laughed when she remembered the time the Doctor had tried to explain to the Sapling that his Mother and Father wanted to watch a movie by themselves and the Sapling had asked 'why?' which then led to a very comical stammering from the Doctor. But as funny as it had been, Avalon felt like the Doctor was right. Of course it brought out another issue they hadn't yet come up with a solution for.
"We could just decide to tell them, you know," she said and immediately felt the Doctor stiffen under her hand. "What?" she laughed. "Too scared to face Amy and Rory?"
"Well...yes...honestly..."
And she didn't even know the half of it. The Doctor knew that Rory had expressed his support for a relationship between Avalon and him if it ever arose, but it didn't stop the Doctor from being scared that there would still be a part of Rory that would reject the relationship. After all, Avalon was no longer a friend, she was his granddaughter. Of course Rory would want his granddaughter - his only grandchild - to be with somebody safe. And he...was not safe. Which also brought the idea that maybe even Amy would disagree now that she knew Avalon was her granddaughter. It wasn't just them, it also went back to Avalon's father - now uncle - who they would eventually have to tell. How would Ryland react to his only brother's daughter having a relationship with the man who was surely responsible for Oliver's death? He would have every right to be against it. Only River Song would, seemingly, be in his corner but that didn't stop the Doctor from feeling the guilt. River wholeheartedly agreed with it, even pushed him towards her daughter, but he was the reason River was far away from Avalon in the first place. He'd done so much to the Ponds and of course he would choose to go and fall for one of them.
Of course.
"Doctor?" Avalon gently called since he'd fallen deep into his thoughts. "Hey," she noticed his face had gone pale and that couldn't be right, at least not over facing Amy and Rory. "So what if Amy and Rory don't agree? Even if they didn't agree, which I highly doubt to be honest, why would it matter? It's not their relationship, it's ours."
"I know," the Doctor lowered his gaze with a weary sigh. It was all so jumbled up.
"Are you sure it's just about them?" Avalon decided to ask what she'd been suspecting for a few days now. "Or is it that you're not quite sure about me yet? Because...because I'm not like you? A...what did you call it? A Time Lady?"
The Doctor's eyes snapped up to meet her nervous pair. "That is never it, Avalon. Don't you...don't ever think that, alright?" He cupped her face and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips, only parting enough to talk. "You are perfect the way you are. I would never think any less of you because you're different. Hell, I like you more because you're not like me. My people...they weren't the best, least not in the end. You're not a Time Lady, you are better."
"Alright, you don't have to kiss up," Avalon playfully rolled her eyes in an attempt to be casual but the truth was she was close to tearing up. "Actually, you could kiss up if you'd like. Kiss here-" she tapped her lips, "-and here-" she moved her finger to her nose, "-and then over here..." She tapped both of her cheeks.
"As tempting as that sounds - and it's really tempting - I would much rather go on our date. What do you think?"
Avalon nodded her head. "Take me away, Fairy Tale Man!"
"Gladly!" the Doctor grabbed her hand and pulled her to his side.
~ 0 ~
"If I trip, I'm going to kill you," Avalon so romantically warned as the Doctor guided her with his hands over her eyes.
"Don't you trust me?" he planted a kiss on her cheek for good measure.
"Of course but I also trust that you're very clumsy and frankly I'd rather not trip because my idiot of a boyfriend - I mean our relationship that's still yet to be labeled - tripped over his own feet."
"I'm still looking for the right label, don't you worry," he promised and finally stopped them right where he needed her. "Now are you ready?"
"Yes! You're lucky I haven't bitten you!"
"Well, to be honest, biting me isn't really much of a punishment anymore," the Doctor cleared his throat and thanked the stars that Avalon's eyes were closed so she couldn't see his blush.
Avalon smirked. "Duly noted. Now please take your hands off my eyes so I can see!"
"Right, I really hope you like this place." The Doctor took in a deep breath then finally pulled his hands from her eyes.
Avalon was quick to open her eyes but she was initially blinded by the sun. She shielded her eyes until her vision could adjust and when it did, she was mesmerized.
She was standing on a marbleized ground, the 'backyard' of the building behind her. She didn't waste time studying that because what truly took her breath away were the botanical gardens in front of them. She stepped forwards, her eyes landing on the large squared pool - that couldn't be deeper than five feet - in front of them with an aisle down the middle leading to what she imagined were the other gardens. She could see two sets of staircases on either side after crossing the aisle. The green gardens, as well as smaller lakes and pools, seemed like they stretched on forever.
"Where are we?" She turned to the Doctor, her eyes dazzling with excitement at the prospect of everything else she'd yet to see.
"This is the Gardenia Style," the Doctor extended his arms to his side. "A relaxation retreat for anybody who needs it. It's the best one in the Andromeda galaxy."
"A retreat? I don't...I don't really see anyone," Avalon said after taking another scan of the place but it seemed pretty empty.
"That's cos there's nobody here. They owe me one."
Avalon snapped her head in the Doctor's direction, eyes wide. "So they just...they just let you close down the place? What...because you asked?"
"The head of the place is an old friend of mine. I explained the situation and I asked her if it was possible to give me a day."
"And she said 'yes of course I can shut down my very profitable business just for you!'," Avalon folded her arms, her lips curving into a smile that threatened to laugh. "Doctor, you can just get people to do that!?"
"Well, I...yes?" the Doctor scratched the top of his head. It was something that he did get to do at times but he never took advantage of it either. "I helped her a long time ago when she was having an, uh, infestation problem..."
"Oh, so you saved her ass and now she owes you? Typical," Avalon turned away from him to gaze at the beautiful scenery. "My Fairy Tale Man just saves so many people, huh?"
"So do you like it?" the Doctor moved to stand behind her, his arms cautiously slipping around her waist. He thought it was the perfect place for Avalon because of its fairy tale nature. He was anxious to show her a few special places the gardens had to offer, but he wouldn't do any of it if Avalon didn't like it.
"I love it!" Avalon exclaimed and leaned her head against his chest, tilting it up to show him her grin. "You chose perfectly."
"Anything for my Ava," he kissed her on the lips. "My princess."
Avalon felt the dozen butterflies fluttering in her stomach at his new name for her. Yeah, he could keep calling her that for as long as he liked.
"C'mon!" the Doctor unwrapped his arms around her to take her hand.
"What are we going to do?" Avalon laughed as he led them down the small steps towards the pool aisle.
"Anything we want! We have the whole day!"
Indeed they did.

Avalon was eager to see everything, but the Doctor was right in that they should start with lunch. And as if to prove her point, her stomach decided to grumble only seconds after the Doctor proposed the idea. So he led her towards the spot where lunch had already been served for them.
Avalon keeled over at the chosen spot. They would be having lunch in a gazebo right in the middle of a beautiful lake. The Doctor led her down the boarded bridge up to the stone gazebo decorated with red poppies, her favorite flower.
"This is amazing," she couldn't keep her mouth from falling each time she looked. She gazed over the lake where flowers lazily floated down their direction. She then turned her attention to the table that was truly set with everything they could possibly eat.
"I'm glad to see you like it," the Doctor's voice pulled her eyes off an odd blue slushy-like content inside a bowl.
She turned around with a wide, soft smile. She walked up to him and looped her arms around his neck then kissed him. "You are wonderful. This entire place, the parts that I've seen is all wonderful. But you know...just because I love fairy tales and I call you my Fairy Tale Man doesn't mean you have to do all this for me. I really would've been just as happy with a picnic or a date in the TARDIS."
The Doctor could see her genuine honesty in her eyes. His hearts swelled knowing that she would be satisfied with something simple so long as they were together, but it didn't mean he could stop himself from enchanting her with everything he could get his hands on. "I just really like impressing you," he said, bringing one of his hands to stroke her cheek. "And I think you deserve only the best."
"You gave me the best thing that happened to my life nearly two years ago when you came back for me. Although, one could say that you only came back for me because Lena asked you to." Avalon casually played with his bowtie while she oh-so-innocently asked her question, "Would you have come back for me if Lena hadn't said anything?"
"Without a doubt," the Doctor had the answer within the second she asked it.
She raised her eyes, dropping her hand from her bowtie. "Really?" There were no more innocent games when she asked again. She had been the last one the Doctor came to pick up after the Atraxi incident, who's to say he wouldn't have changed his mind about her if Lena hadn't needed her. "I was in jail the last the time you saw me. You helped me because Lena asked you to. If she hadn't said anything, would you have still helped me? Would you have come back for me like you came for Amy?"
"Of course I would have," the Doctor once again answered her as soon as she asked. He thought these were rhetorical questions, but River's warning came back to mind. Avalon was a strong girl but every now and then she needed reassurance from people around her. "You helped me when you were seven and you did impress me, Avalon. I have never met another child like you and most certainly another woman like you."
A bright pink blush bloomed across Avalon's face, nothing stopping the big grin on her lips though. "I can say with the utmost certainty that I have never met another man like you."
That was music to the Doctor's ears. He leaned down to kiss her, practically meshing their lips together. Avalon's arms around his neck unwinded slightly to touch his hair. She'd learned fast that the Doctor loved getting his hair touched, stroked and tugged on. Who was she to deny him his bit of pleasure when he was so attentive to her likes? She kissed him fervently and let her fingers stroke through his hair for as long as he wanted because really...who would interrupt them? The flowers in the lake? Nobody. That was the best part of this place. They could kiss for as long as they liked, wherever they'd like.

"Okay, what is that?" Avalon laughed as the Doctor picked up the odd blue gushy stuff in a bowl.
The Doctor seemed to like it judging by his grin. "Oh, you'll love it!" He scooted his chair closer to hers with the bowl in hand. "Try it."
"Right, but you haven't told me what it is," Avalon pointed out, "And I'd rather not be poisoned."
"Oi, you think I'm poisoning you?" the Doctor made a face.
"Payback for what I did."
Even if it was a joke, the Doctor didn't like it. "I would never," he whispered earnestly. "Because you know I forgive you for everything, not like I had to though." He reached over to her and gently tucked a curl behind her ear, though it kept sticking back out. He smiled at her so kindly that Avalon teared up.
"Oh God I will never forgive myself for it," she shook her head.
"Ava, don't think about that stuff. You're here now and you're okay. I won't let anything happen to you, never again."
Avalon smiled through her tears. "Okay, let's try that gushy stuff then." She tried her best to eat it without letting it spill on her dress. They collectively laughed when she slurped it up. "That's ladylike for sure!"
"What'd you think?" the Doctor handed her a napkin.
"I love it! Kind of like blueberry!"
"Excellent, then I know you'll love Akhaten!"
Avalon shot him a confused smile. "Aka-what?"
"Akhaten, you'll love it! It's a planet with a big ole market place and a beautiful sun."
"I'd love to go there," Avalon's smile widened with excitement.
The Doctor chuckled, "I'll take you one day, I promise."
Avalon beamed. Something about making plans for the future made butterflies appear in her stomach. It also made her want to push away all thoughts about Lake Silencio even harder. She couldn't let that future happen. In fact, now she was thinking about the moment a lot clearer. A lot of the Doctor's behavior was beginning to make sense. He'd been a lot nicer to her than what their relationship back then entailed. He didn't even get mad at her for stealing a Milan fashion dress! That should've been her first clue that he'd been a future Doctor. My Doctor wouldn't get so mad at me right now...
"Hey Doctor, what would you think of going back to Milan again for fashion week?"
"I think I would die of boredom 2 seconds after we get there," the Doctor answered with an honest-to-God straight face.
"Well, how about if I nicked something kind of pretty for me?" she arched an eyebrow. "Maybe something kind of sexy?"
That definitely got his attention. "Uh, well..." He cleared his throat, obviously finding nothing to do with himself in the moment. "I-I would think...they...they probably wouldn't miss one silly little dress..."
Avalon smiled widely. The Lake Silencio Doctor was truly a future version. He'd been this Doctor she had in front of him, the one who cared for her so much that he couldn't find a label to describe just how much he felt for her.
"Ava, what's wrong?" the Doctor reached to clear off a tear rolling down her cheek.
She quickly blinked the rest away. She had teared up without noticing. "N-nothing. I'm happy, I'm very happy right now." She took his hand from her face and held it tightly in hers. "You have no idea how much I care for you, Doctor. I'm almost upset that you haven't come up with a good label for us just so I can use it right now."
"I am trying," he assured her. "I might just have to create a new word for us. That is how much I care for you." Avalon chuckled but there were still tears welling in her eyes. It puzzled the Doctor deeply. "Why are you crying, Ava?"
"These are happy tears," she tried to argue but he had come to know her that well now.
"No," he cleared more tears off her face with his free hand. "They're sad tears. What is making my Ava so sad?"
Avalon felt so stupid for ruining their date, but she couldn't stop the tears. He was right, they were sad tears but they were also fearful tears, and even happy tears. She was an outright mess. "I just..." She sniffed and let go of his hand to dry her face completely.
The Doctor pushed his chair back to stand up but Avalon beat him to it. She got up from her chair and easily slipped onto his lap. She pressed her lips to his for a sweet, long kiss. The Doctor truly had no idea what was going on but he would never refuse the chance to kiss her.
A few minutes later, Avalon pulled away but only slightly. She smiled at him but the Doctor could still see that same sadness in her eyes. He stroked her cheek with the back of his hand.
"Tell me what's wrong, Ava, and I'll make it better. I'll always try to make everything better for you."
"Really? Anything?"
"Anything."
Don't be stupid. Avalon took his hand stroking her face and gave it a kiss. "Can you promise me something?"
"Anything." The Doctor was willing and ready which did, admittedly, give Avalon a teeny-tiny bit of hope that maybe this time they could change the future.
"Promise me that we won't end. Promise me that you'll try to stay at my side...at least until you get tired of me."
The Doctor thought it was silly that she'd want to hear this but...if she needed reassurance he'd give it to her. "I promise. I promise to stay at your side..." Until Time would say otherwise and Time had already spoken, he was just too much of a coward to tell her the truth. He made it a routine to check his biography from the Teselecta every day, reminding himself of what was to come in 200 years. Perhaps he was ridiculous for thinking that he could change the future, but having Avalon with him right now, asking him to stay at her side...it created a powerful drive to make it so.
He couldn't fathom not being with her.
She was still holding onto his hand when he maneuvered his fingers to stroke her skin. "I promise that I will be at your side until I die." That was a promise he could keep.
Avalon took in a shaky breath. 'Until I die'. She had been at his side when he died.
"Why don't we finish lunch and then I can show you the rest of this place, hm?" the Doctor asked. He wanted to rid her of those tears ruining her usual clear blue eyes. He brought her hand to his lips and kissed each of her fingers. He was glad to see her smiling by the time he kissed her pinky.
Avalon ultimately nodded her head. She shouldn't waste such a beautiful day on horrid thoughts. "Okay, but one more thing...do I have to get off?"
The Doctor hook his head, grinning almost immediately. "Not at all. But you might have to help me eat..."
Avalon swayed her head then reached for a few grapes on a nearby bowl. She held one to his mouth and watched him take it off swift and easily. She then dropped one into her own mouth and smirked at him.
How the hell can she make that look so seductive? The Doctor figured he wouldn't get that answer, so the least he could do was take advantage of every moment it happened.

After lunch, the Doctor got to lead Avalon through the gardens. He had shown her the smaller pools which, unfortunately, he did not allow her to dip her toes in. She rolled her eyes at his excuse that, while being true, was still annoying.
"So I get a cold, what's the big deal?" she was only letting him hold her hand because if not, there was a good chance she'd get lost in the maze they'd entered.
"The big deal is I don't know how aggressive that cold might get and I don't feel like seeing you get a cold. I am the Doctor, remember? My patient is not getting sick on my watch."
"Patient?" she shot him a side-glance. "Is that all I am?"
"Still working on a label my love."
Avalon's head turned in the opposite direction when she felt a blush cross her face. Whenever the Doctor would say 'my love' to her, her face automatically went all warm. She was choosing to ignore the tingle - as best as she could - that was going down her back.
"Not upset are you?" the Doctor noticed her gaze had become stuck on the bright green bush walls.
"No, course not," Avalon finally gave him a well needed look a few seconds later. "I have to say, I love this maze...one could get lost in it forever, huh?"
"No, not really," the Doctor shook his head. "It's not that big."
"Still, a maze? Gardens? Lakes? Doctor, I really love this place," Avalon turned to him with a smile to match what she felt. "I'm curious to see where you might take me tomorrow, on a normal day?"
"Well, 'normal' isn't exactly the word I'd use for us. But to answer your question, I'd take you anywhere you'd like."
"Really? Anywhere?"
"Anywhere. My only rule is that it has to be exceptional for my Ava." The Doctor took her hands into his, intertwining their fingers together.
"Even if it's outrageous?" Avalon bit her lower lip with anticipation. "Could I ask to see something outrageously exceptional, then?"
"Of course. Name something, I dare you."
Avalon hummed while she thought about such an outrageous place that even he couldn't make it happen. "I got it. Can you take me to, I don't know, Neverland?" That had to be impossible for him to reach.
"I'd make it so," the Doctor gently tugged Avalon to him, smiling at her soft laughter. "I would!"
"It's from a movie, Doctor!"
"Doesn't mean I can't find a piece of it somewhere up there," he tilted her chin up to the sky. "Cos that's the best thing about traveling in the TARDIS, Ava. Somewhere in the galaxies, in one small corner, there might be two little stars and we'd only have to go to the second star on the right."
Avalon stared at him with twinkling eyes. "You would make it so even if you couldn't," she said quietly. The Doctor only gave a light shrug, but it was done almost automatic, like an instinct. He didn't know if he could ever find the place but he would try to find it for her. "Second star to the right," she whispered.
"Those are our plans for tomorrow then," the Doctor swooped down to give her a kiss. "Can't wait to see what we come up with for the day after."
Avalon laughed and allowed him to pull her down the maze. "You're going to get us lost!"
"I will not!" he huffed. He stopped them at an intersection and Avalon swore he looked at each path more than what a person who knew what they were doing had to. "I've been here a bunch of times!"
"Oh, who with?" Avalon raised an eyebrow at him, genuinely curious who had had the privilege of seeing this beautiful place.
"What?" the Doctor registered the question a few seconds after choosing to turn to the left. "Who did I...? Oh! I, uh, I think I showed Donna!"
"You don't remember?" Avalon made a face at him, almost looking offended on behalf of Donna.
"Well, it was such a long time ago!"
"But you said Donna used to be your best friend, how could you forget that you came here with her?"
The Doctor came to a slow stop and looked at her. "I do have 900 years worth of memories, Ava. My head's not that big, despite what you all say. Plus, a good chunk of my memories are with the Sapling."
Avalon rolled her eyes and allowed him to finish their way out of the maze. She gave him his credit for finding the way out in five minutes, although she suspected that Donna had played a huge part in finding the way out because Avalon swore that the Doctor had mumbled some type of mnemonic to help him find the way in the end.
"What a beautiful sight," she remarked once they were on the other side. The maze had led them out on a new grassy terrain with a cliff ledge.
The Doctor brought Avalon towards the edge so she could see the waterfall gushing below into a river. Where that ended, Avalon had no clue, but it all looked amazing. The sun was making the water shine a golden shade that Avalon didn't want to look away anytime soon.
"C'mon Ava," the Doctor had to eventually drag her away from the edge. He was a bit afraid that in her attempt to look further below, she might fall. He'd love to make a dive himself but Avalon didn't know how to swim. That would probably be a problem.
"But I want to keep looking," Avalon complained with an arm gesturing at the scenery.
"We can do that, just not right at the edge!" The Doctor brought them back a decent amount from the cliff and then sat down on the grass. He patted the spot beside him and flashed her a smile. With a roll of her eyes, she sat down. As soon as she'd gotten comfortable, the Doctor moved again.
"Doctor, what are you...?" Avalon laughed when he made himself comfortable with his head over her lap. He shifted far too much, making it a show until he finally found his spot. "Are you good now?" Avalon looked down at him with another laugh.
"Oh yeah," he nodded but a few seconds later Avalon noticed the quick dart his eyes did to the opposite direction.
"What is it?"
"Um, your, uh..." he coughed in an obvious manner of awkwardness. "It is a beautiful dress you're wearing, Ava."
Avalon blushed when she realized he'd gotten a little glimpse through the hole of her dress below her chest. She pressed her dress and cleared her throat. "Sorry. You can look now."
The Doctor suspected she wasn't very sorry, and if he was going to admit silently then he wasn't sorry either. You are way ahead of yourself, Doctor. Calm down.
"I bet your mind just rushed with new thoughts, didn't it?" Avalon smirked.
"Oh, shut up!"
"Alright, alright, I'll let it go because you're doing so good today."
"I am?"
"Mhm," Avalon started stroking his hair, much to his delight.
The Doctor was sure that she had the most gentle fingers. She was a writer so maybe that had to do with it. But there's no explanation for the way she makes me feel when she touches my hair. Several times the Doctor had to swallow a moan. He wasn't sure if Avalon knew what she caused, but either way he couldn't ask her to stop. It felt too good.
"Don't fall asleep on me, Fairy Tale Man," Avalon chuckled when a few minutes had passed by and the Doctor hadn't opened his eyes.
"You'd like that, wouldn't you?" the Doctor cracked one eye open. "I heard from Amy about your little tricks at your sleepovers. You drew all over her face and you had the audacity to scribble a little 'sincerely Ava' under." If he had, had the slightest doubt that his Ava could pull off something like that, the confirmation was all in Avalon's smirk. "You are one bad girl."
"And yet you don't sound the least bit upset about it," Avalon bopped her nose over his roguish lips.
"I do like myself a bad girl, especially the gingers. They're the feistiest!"
"Are you speaking from experience? Have you dated another ginger like me?" Avalon scrunched her face as soon as she realized what she asked. She placed her finger over his lips before he could answer her. "I'm not sure I can handle the long list you have of significant others." She raised her finger from his lips and sighed. "That doesn't mean I would want you to forget about them, though. I mean...I'm not gonna be one of those people demanding you forget every other relationship you've ever had."
"I thank you for that, and it's the same for you, you know," the Doctor reached up to her face and stroked her plump pink lips. "But that doesn't mean I'd like to hear who else had the privilege of kissing these lips."
Avalon rolled her eyes. "Many have had the fortune but none will have it now but you. I hope you extend me the same courtesy."
"You know it."
"I hope so because I know your track record, mister. Almost every companion has had a piece of you!"
"That was...that's...I didn't do anything!"
"Oh, I'm sure!" Avalon would've bantered more with him if he wasn't reacting so serious. He should know by now that this was just her way of being. "Calm down, Fairy Tale Man. I'm just pulling your leg."
"Well, can you pull my hair instead?" the Doctor didn't hesitate to respond with. He short her a smirk and pointed to his unkempt hair.
"You are so..." Avalon wouldn't be able to find the right word to describe him and she wasn't going to spend all day thinking of one. She let her fingers once again run through his hair and smiled when he saw the satisfaction on the Doctor's face. "Can I ask you something?"
"Always."
"I, uh...you know that I know about your past, perhaps not all of it but a good amount. You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I would really get it..."
"You're rambling, Ava," the Doctor opened his eyes to see her struggling face. "What is it?"
"I know about your last love, your most recent last love." Soon as she started with those words, she felt the Doctor's body stiffen. "There's no resentment, Doctor. Never. I'm only curious about her. Rose Tyler was her name. Kovarian mentioned her a lot. She said that Rose unintentionally helped the Daleks break through the walls of the universe."
"She had no idea what she was doing," the Doctor said quietly. "She wanted to come back to this world..."
"...to find you?" Avalon smiled softly at him, truly bearing no type of anger or resentment like she said. "I can admire that. She broke through parallel walls just to find you. Must have been one hell of a love story."
"It was," the Doctor said after a minute of struggle. He wasn't used to talking about his past with anyone, much less to think about people like Rose, people that had meant a lot to him.
"You can always talk to me, Fairy Tale Man," Avalon whispered and the Doctor wasn't sure if she was doing it on purpose or subconsciously, but her fingers found a gentler way of stroking his hair. "Is there something you want to tell me about Rose Tyler? Let somebody new in on her memory?"
The Doctor smiled. My Ava. "She was sweet, she was young - she was your age when we first met. Nineteen. She worked at a shop and...she didn't really know what she was doing with her life."
"I felt that," Avalon chuckled. She never knew what she was going to do with her life before the Doctor returned to Leadworth.
"Travelling helped her find her way. But then she got pulled into a parallel world. She almost died but she was saved. Being stuck in that parallel world was better than for her to have died in the Void with the Daleks and Cybermen."
Avalon fingers stopped between the Doctor's hair. "The Daleks and Cybermen..." she whispered. She closed her eyes when the memories tried coming back. "Kovarian showed me so many pictures of that battle...I can't...I can't believe it..."
"I'm sorry," the Doctor said, feeling guilty he was bringing back the things she wanted to clearly forget.
"No, no, you're good. I...I wasn't even there, I mean...I wasn't in the eye of the storm where it happened. But you were...you were there when your friend got lost. I'm so sorry it happened."
"It started a lot of things," the Doctor said with a saddened smile. Losing Rose had been one of the most terrible days of his life, but it truly did start different stories afterwards. "I met Martha soon after - actually, I met Donna before and then Martha but then I found Donna again."
"Lucky her," Avalon resumed with her gentle fingers gliding through his hair.
"Yeah...no...no, she wasn't. It was fate. I met her to lose her as well."
"You always say that I remind you of Donna," Avalon said, unable to keep her curiosity hidden. "Why's that? Besides the ginger thing of course. That doesn't automatically make us twins or something."
The Doctor chuckled. "I know. You two shout at me the same way, the only difference is now I can kiss you to shut you up. If I did that with Donna she'd kill me. She made it very clear to on her first day in the TARDIS that she did not want anything to do with me beyond friendship."
"Did she shout it?"
"A possibility."
"Alright Donna," Avalon smiled.
"I wish you could have met her, Avalon. I think out of everyone I met before you and the Ponds, you would've gotten along with Donna the best. She could be reckless and fun when she wanted to be. She grew to become confident, to love who she was. She was brave as hell and so sympathetic to others. She had some very good snaps and comebacks too. She even gave me my own nickname like you did. Spaceman." Just remembering the many times Donna would call him 'spaceman' made him long for the times with his best friend. He'd love to have Donna around so she could meet Avalon and no doubt make fun of him for taking so long to open up about his feelings.
Avalon tilted her head in thought. "Spaceman...I like it. Not as much as Fairy Tale Man but...she had taste." She looked down at him to find him lost in thoughts, no doubt about Donna. "You really miss her, huh?"
"Yeah. If I hadn't had to wipe her memories, I'm sure she would still be here. She would be making endless jokes about the fact we had a cosmic tree child."
Avalon laughed. "You think so?"
"I know so!"
"She sounds great, Doctor, really. She and Rose do. I'm so sorry that you lost them."
The Doctor sobered from his own laugh but when he smiled, it was no longer sad. He gazed up at her and met her lovable sea-blue eyes. He finally sat up and shifted to sit beside her, facing her, with one arm going over her lap to rest on her other side. "I lost them but I have you now. I did love Rose, I won't lie - not that I could - but I lost her a long time ago. And I understood why. She wasn't for me. She wasn't...mine. You are. And Donna's gone, my best friend, but I found new friends. I have Amy, Rory, and my sweet baby sister Lena. I have all of you now."
Avalon's eyes glistened with tears. "Why do you always make me tear up dammit?"
"I'm sorry, dear," the Doctor rubbed his thumb over her cheek.
"They're happy tears, trust me," Avalon said, this time genuinely truthful. "I'm happy that you're happy. Let's me know that I'm doing a good job here."
"Of course you are. No matter what you do I'm happy, so long as you're by my side." He leaned closer to her, purposely pausing just in front of her lips to give her a heads up of what was coming. "Are you happy?"
Avalon felt like that was a ridiculous question to ask, but she humored him. "Very. I wish I could thank Rose and Donna, and everyone else who came before me, for saving your ass so you could be here with me."
The Doctor rolled his eyes. "You just couldn't help yourself, huh?"
"No..." Avalon giggled. "I'm really bad."
"Yeah," the Doctor agreed before kissing her. God knows what else she might say.
~ 0 ~
"Hey Doctor, I just realized, how come you didn't tell me about your other friend, Martha Jones?" Avalon asked once the pair were out of the maze and cliff altogether. They were in front of a rectangle-shaped, 2ft pool. Avalon noticed the stone flower statues lining the middle of the pool.
"Oh, uh, cos I'm saving her for a better moment," the Doctor said, flashing her a mischievous smile.
"What are you up to Fairy Tale Man?"
The Doctor turned to her, letting his mischievous smile widen even more. "Confession time?"
"Always!"
"Back when I was looking for you, I actually had some help from my old friend Martha. I thought we might pop back to see her and you can meet her."
Avalon nodded excitedly. "I'd love that! You think she'd like me?"
"Of course she would," the Doctor said, preferring not to think about how Martha had implied this relationship was coming. He'd just have to suck it up and admit she was right sooner or later. "And, I guess...we could get our mutual old friend...Jack..."
Avalon had heard the name perfectly despite how low the Doctor had muttered it. "Jack!? Oh my God, I'd love to see him again! I haven't seem him in such a long time!"
"Please...try to look excited..." the Doctor's face was completely flat while Avalon practically bounced at the idea of seeing the old immortal man.
"I am!" Avalon laughed, not noticing his expression yet. "I love Jack! He just gets me and my weaponry interests!"
"Oh, well...so long as you're happy, I guess..."
Avalon rolled her eyes when she finally got his disdain. "Oh Fairy Tale Man. He's my friend! I"m allowed to have friends that are men!"
"Yeah, but Jack just loves to flirt with everyone and so do you! I dread to think of what it's gonna be like seeing you flirt with him!"
"Jealous?" a sly smile took Avalon's face. The Doctor huffed and looked away. "I guess I should keep my mouth shut about my actual previous boyfriends, then?"
"Yeah!"
"Did you say no? I heard 'no'!" Avalon turned away with her hands clapped together. "Let's see, oh! How about my very first boyfriend? Ah, Leo. I liked Leo a lot. You know he took me on a date to the ice cream parlor!"
"Gah," the Doctor waved her off. "Pales in comparison to all this!" He flapped his arms to his sides, gesturing to the beautiful gardens around them.
Avalon kept her back to him but was smirking. She was getting a rile out of him and it was the most hilarious thing ever! "I had my first kiss with him too! I was fifteen but, eh, nothing wrong with a late bloomer! Then there was Benjamin. He was such a sweetheart," Avalon brought a hand over her chest. "He wrote poems for me!"
The Doctor let his arms fall to his sides. He was about to shoot her a comeback but he could tell, even when she wasn't facing him, that she'd started to truly reminisce about her past, just like he had. He couldn't be mad at that. "Did he write them well?" he asked suddenly.
Avalon turned sideways and nodded silently. "He uh...he actually asked me if I..." she chuckled, "He asked me to our school dance in a poem. It was such a cheesy poem but I was so excited cos it was my first school dance." She didn't exactly make the best reputation for herself in school so having a guy actually write her a poem just to ask her out to a dance was beyond her. It still warmed her heart. "Mum took me out shopping for a dress, she tried her best to make this-" she grabbed one of her curls, "-decent, and she let me wear her special lip gloss. Benjy...he was one of the sweet guys."
"Benjy..." the Doctor repeated though there was a light laugh that slipped through his lips. "Then I like him for being thoughtful."
"Really?" Avalon set a hand on her hip. "Cos a minute ago you looked ready to yell."
"Well...you deserve some good memories too, and if 'Benjy'-" the Doctor brought his fingers to the air for quotation marks, "-made you happy then I'm happy too."
"He did," Avalon nodded. "And then a year later he had to move to Scotland. I hated Amy so much..." There, the Doctor laughed. "Her stupid country took away my Benjy!"
"Oh, Ava!"
Avalon sighed, waving him off. "That was my first real break up. I was so sad. Took me forever to get over him. But then I dated again, met Jordan. He was a bad guy..." She smirked and the Doctor had to keep himself refrained from moving when she started biting her lip. "He had the black leather jacket...oh! I had some good times with him."
"Really?"
"Mhm. He was a good kisser."
"So what happened to him, then?"
"Dumped me for some other girl," Avalon scowled.
"Oh," the Doctor wasn't expecting that answer, least not yet. "I'm sorry..."
Avalon shrugged. "Wasn't my first, wasn't my last. I had a couple more boyfriends after that but I don't think they were very meaningful."
"No more 'Benjy's'?" the Doctor asked her, a tiny smile quirking across his lips.
"A few but...I don't know, some of the guys were just boring and others wanted things I didn't want. I think only ever liked Benjy. We dated for a year until he moved. My last boyfriend, the one that dumped me the night you came back for me, remember?"
The Doctor nodded. He remembered her face full of tears. Now that guy deserved all his hatred. No one should make his Ava cry.
"He was fine. We were fine but...I wanted to find Lena and he thought I was getting obsessed. He couldn't handle it so he broke up with me." Avalon exhaled deeply, letting her shoulders once again awkwardly shrug. "I didn't have epic love stories like you did..."
"But they're your stories," the Doctor moved up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Mm, and I wouldn't change them," Avalon pecked his lips and turned around to watch the pool, resting her back against his chest.
The Doctor couldn't help think about her words for a moment. They were the same ones River had told him back when Avalon had escaped the TARDIS to visit her in Stormcage.
His thoughts were interrupted when the sprinklers of the pool turned on. Avalon yelped when the drizzle of water and mist fell over them. She turned around and buried her face in his chest. "Not my make up!"
The Doctor laughed and hurried them away from the sight. "C'mon, Ava!"
They ran down the gardens, only stopping here and there to admire. One part of the gardens had a field dedicated to statues. There was no pattern nor order, just statues meant to be admired by the guests. They were gorgeous...only Avalon found one that reminded her too much of the Silence, so the Doctor quickly changed venues. But funny thing was, after they left the statues, they forgot all about it.
"Is the sun setting already?" Avalon asked as they began nearing the building where the TARDIS was. The sun was getting covered by clouds and actually...there seemed to be a lot of clouds suddenly.
"I'm afraid so," the Doctor lamented like her that their day was coming to an end.
"Still, our day together was rather nice..." Avalon side-glanced him. "Right?"
"Truly." The Doctor brought her hand to his lips for a kiss. "The first of many." Avalon beamed. She would love to see what else he could come up with. "C'mon," he led her down the pool aisle to return to the front, but Avalon let go of his hand midway. He turned back to see her gazing at the two pools. "Ava?"
"Are these like...sacred pools or something?"
"What? No, no, they're purely here for aesthetic reasons."
"Ah..."
"Why?"
Avalon smirked at the water, giving the Doctor about a second to realize what she was thinking before she actually did it.
"Avalon-"
Avalon hopped into the water, splashing the water around her. The water only reached to her ankles but it was enough for her to have fun wiggling her way through it while splashing.
"Avalon! Get out of there! You'll get sick!" the Doctor called to her in vain.
"Don't be a spoilsport!" She called and kicked some water his way. "I can't swim so this is as close to a pool as I'll ever get! C'mon!" She walked towards him, ignoring his refusals, and splashed some water his way.
"You are childish!" He stepped his boots hard on the ground to get rid of the water they now had.
"And yet you're smiling! C'mon!" She reached down and pushed more water in his way. "We're about to leave anyways! One more shenanigan!"
The Doctor exhaled and finally looked at her. Shenanigans. That was literally what they did most and it was always so much fun and...spontaneous. He couldn't plan around Avalon because even when he did - like this entire place - she always did something out of his plans. And he loved it. She brought him the thrill he didn't know he needed.
"Coming, Fairy Tale Man?" Avalon backed away and twirled about in the water.
The Doctor thought she looked beautiful. She looked happy. It was nothing compared to Berlin, or after. His Ava was happy...and she was calling him to her side, right where he once told River he'd love to be. Almost like he was in a trance, the Doctor hopped into the pool. Avalon was still twirling when the Doctor reached her. He picked her up midspin from behind and heard her laugh as he gave her another spin.
"Gotcha my dear!" He planted her feet back on the ground but kept his arms locked around her waist, only offering her space so she could turn to face him.
"Couldn't resist, could you?" Avalon cheekily smiled at him.
"I could never resist you."
"Smooth," she rolled her eyes. She danced her fingers along his chest until they came to rest over his shoulders. "Is this the end, then? Has our date come to an end?"
"Not quite, there's one more thing we have to do."
"What is i-"
The Doctor swooped down for a surprise kiss then hurried out of the pool. His feet splashed the water all around until he made it to the cement ground. "But you'll need to get out of that pool!" He called back to the ginger still in the pool.
Avalon laughed. "Why? What are you doing?" She watched him dash for the TARDIS and because she was overly curious, she listened to his words and walked out of the pool.
She raised her head to the sky and saw the clouds getting darker. Maybe it was a good thing their date was ending because it looked like there was rain coming. Her thoughts were interrupted by a soft tune that started from the TARDIS. It only took Avalon a few seconds to recognize it. He'd chosen to play Once Upon A Dream for her.
She laughed just as the Doctor came out of the TARDIS. She wouldn't even bother with his smug face - he deserved it this time. "That's my song, our song..."
"Our first dance," the Doctor hurriedly hopped down the steps to join her by the pool.
"How could I forget?" Avalon sighed in content. It'd been the first day she felt genuinely happy with him. He'd taken her to meet Mary Costa and she'd become a singer to the very song now playing.
"Would you like to dance, princess?" the Doctor held a hand out for her.
"There's nothing else I'd like to do, my knight in shining armor," Avalon did the familiar bow of a princess then took his hand.
The Doctor gently pulled her up to him and set his free hand on her waist. Avalon gripped his other hand that held hers and rested her free hand on his shoulder. The two descended into a slow dance. They were so into their moment that they completely ignored - or perhaps they didn't even hear - the thunder cracking in the sky.
"Now it's a perfect date," the Doctor murmured beside Avalon's ear.
She slightly tilted her head in the opposite direction, smiling so widely it could possibly crack her face. "It was a perfect date from the start. I have never had somebody go through this much trouble just for me."
"You deserve everything, Avalon," he pressed a kiss to her cheek.
She doubted that she did. There was no denying that her background involved a lot of running from the law. She liked the running too, the adrenaline. She made some bad choices in the past and it seemed like she would continue doing the same. There was a part of her that feared her bad choices would lead her to Lake Silencio. What if I'm the one in the astronaut suit? What if the Silence weren't done with me? Avalon screwed her eyes shut in terrible fear. She couldn't let that happen. She would rather die than ever become a weapon for them.
"Ava?" the Doctor gently called her name. He didn't know what was running through her head but he figured it couldn't be good if it had her squeezing her eyes shut. "Are you okay?"
Avalon opened her eyes and smiled lightly. "With you? Always."
This time they heard the thunder roar but Avalon gripped the Doctor to their spot. She wasn't ready to leave yet. "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream. I know you! The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam..."
The Doctor smiled. Of course. They couldn't leave until the princess sang her song. And he loved this princess' voice as much as he loved when she stroked his hair. They danced together as Avalon's melodic voice filled the air.
"Yet I know it's true the visions are seldom all they seem. But if I know you, I know what you'll do..." she laughed when the Doctor dipped her, keeping their faces close together. "You'll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream..."
The Doctor brought her back up but kissed her midway, unable to help himself even if it caught her song off. Avalon didn't seem to mind. She moved her lips with his for as long as she could, or they could...
Thunder cracked one more time before the rain started. They parted from their kiss only slightly to look at each other.
"But if I know you, I know what you'll do. You'll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream..." Avalon finished with the biggest smile on her face.
The water was thinning her curls, flattening them to her face and body. She watched the droplets of water drip from the Doctor's strands of hair over his forehead. She reached her hand over and gently moved his hair to the side.
"Singing and dancing in the rain, now we have the perfect ending to the perfect date," she said, laughing when the Doctor gave them another sway of a dance. "I will never forget this day, Fairy Tale Man." She leaned over and kissed him, wrapping her arms around his neck the more they kissed.
A kiss under the rain was truly the last bit they needed before they could leave such an enchanting place.
When the Doctor heard actual lightning strike, he knew it was time to go. Still, he reluctantly pulled away from Avalon but she wasn't letting him go. "Time to go home, princess."
Avalon smiled and nodded. She had dressed for heat, not rain. "Okay." She unwinded her arms from his neck and let the Doctor guide them towards the TARDIS. Neither of them noticed a small, truly minuscule, device had been placed on one of its sides. When the TARDIS dematerialized, the bug device flashed to life.
"The time has come to collect the rest of my memoriesssss." The Scream emerged from the building's back door. He raised a handheld device in his hand, a tracker of his own unique kind, and watched it. "I will follow youuuu Doctor. I know exactly how to take what's miiiiine."

White Holes [Cassian Andor] [10/10]
Tumblr media
Warnings: None Tags: Death Pairings: Cassian Andor/OC
Summary: Captain Cassian Andor was an Officer of Rebel Intelligence for the Alliance. An emotionless tool. There was nothing more to his life than following orders and working for the Resistance. Hell! His only friend was an Imperial droid named K-2SO. So what happens when he is struck by love at first sight and meets Dr. Lya Stryker? Will their story has a happy ending? (CassianxOC)
My fanfiction: M A S T E R L I S T
*** 3 Years Later ***
Adair sprinted to Dr. Stryker's home. He wasted no time in banging on the door. It only took a moment for the woman to answer the door. Her hair swayed as she did it rapidly.
She would never say but she had been patiently waiting for her significant other's return. She had a bad feeling about this mission. She could feel her stomach twisting in anxiety with every second of Cassian's absence.
"They're back," the male doctor nodded. His face was pale and his tone was one of seriousness. Her heart stopped. Dr. Lya Stryker looked back at the Imperial droid that had been reprogrammed recently. "NA-2, it's time." She quickly rushed back to a room which had been built in the back. There was a toddler sleeping on a small bed.
"I'll be back Jorel, mom is going to go get dad," she kissed the child's curly topped head carefully not to awaken him and rushed out of the house whipping her lab coat over her shoulders.
She had begged him not to go.
"Cass," She pleaded leaning over her kitchen counter.
"You always have bad feelings," Cassian sighed. "You have to admit you just don't want me to go."
"Well- of course not," She exhaled in frustration. It was like this every time. Except this time it was somehow worse.
Vital information about a weapon of mass destruction called the Death Star with the power to obliterate planets was just intercepted by rebels. However, it was potentially just a rumors. If it wasn't true- it was a trap and if it was true- what choice did the Rebel Alliance have? Would the galaxy be condemned if they didn't fight? What were the chances? What were the choices that they had?
She would plead for him not to go and he would return would a few souvenirs in the form of scars and bruises. Lya snaked around the counter and wrapped her arms around his arm. She leaned her head on his shoulder and kissed his arm. "If it were up to me I'd be selfish and keep you here all to myself." "If it were up to me I'd let you," he smiled at her. That ages smiled that made the edges of his eyes crinkle with affection.
"We have to go, get our hands on those plans. We've all done terrible things on behalf of the rebellion. Everything I did, I did for the Rebellion, for a better future and every time I walked away from something that I wanted to forget I told myself that it was for a cause that was worth it, for something that I believed in. But now, if everything is lost, everything would've been for nothing. I couldn't face myself if I did nothing." She looked down her eyes stung as they filled with hot tears, the grip became tighter around his arm.
"I'm doing this for us," he said taking her face in one of his hands. "For Jerol," he nodded his head over to the bedroom at the end of the hallway. "For me?" "For you," he leaned in and kissed her forehead. "For Esli?"
"Esli?" His eyes narrowed in confusing. "Who's Esli?"
She looked at him before cracking a weak smile. Her eyes lowered to her not yet swollen stomach.
It was a complicated time during the Galaxy War for children to be born, but alas life had to go on.
"A-Are you sure?" His eyes went wide. "Another one?" he beamed. He wrapped his arms around the doctor and hid his smile on her hair. He hid his smile, his tears, Cassian knew he wouldn't come back. He took everything in, her smell, her touch, the way her body felt against his.
He remembered the first time he ever laid eyes on the doctor. His heart had stopped, he had been so persistent in loving her since.
"Oh, Lya, my love, my all," he closed his eyes and pressed a kiss on her forehead. Like a broken damn the tears streamed down her eyes silently as she wrapped her arms around him and kissed him as if it were the last time.
They made love one last time and her parting words to him were.
"May the force be with you my love,"
That had been yesterday.
Lya had not slept all night, she had been praying with every action and every step she took. Preparing the medical ward for the return of the brave volunteers who had decided to partake on this dangerous mission.
Beds were prepared, medicine was restocked and everything was ready the return of any fallen heroes.
Fighter ships and U-Wings were coming in ignited in flames. Survivors were rushed in to the ward. Medics began running left and right, there was pain, fire, blood, screaming and death quickly filling each and every one of the beds in the ward.
Lya kept her eyes sharp her senses on edge. She remained attentive to every individual that was checked in. Surprisingly there weren't that many survivors, there were beds to spare. She did a round around the ward desperately looking for Cassian. She kept her eyes open looking for Jyn Erso, K-2SO, anybody that could have whereabouts about Cassian.
Time flew by in the ward, and with every aching minute she knew.
It was around midnight when the Rebel Alliance had gathered at the main headquarters for a final update on the results of the mission.
By this time Lya already knew. She could feel it in her gut. She walked as tall as she could as she entered the crowded room. At the center stood the leaders of the Rebellion. They honored and praised the fighters that sacrificed their lives for the purpose of the Rebellion. They announced that thanks to these brave souls the mission had been a success and because of that the Rebellion actually stood a fighting chance against the Empire.
Holographic figures began glimmering in the projector with their names spelled above. Names and faces of valiant soldiers killed in action began flashing before the crew. Lya's face was stoic. Adair stood at her side analyzing her composed expression. Some of the faces flashing were familiar, some weren't.
Her heart was at her throat.
Beating.
Hammering.
Her breathing, however was not.
She looked over her shoulder briefly. Wishing, hoping that Cassian would be casually leaning against the wall. His dark, bottomless eyes lingering on her as they usually would. K-2SO would come in and make a blunt sarcastic remark. But that wasn't the case today.
Her eyes returned back to the screen when they landed on her beloved for the last time.
Everything she feared had just been confirmed.
Just like that she felt something shatter inside of her. She stumbled backwards on her feet, the breath she had been holding choked out in scattered fits.
Her blood ran cold as she lost her footing and collapsed. She couldn't hear Adair calling her name, hoisting her up and dragging her limp body to the back of the crowd.
He knew what this felt like. He had felt it when Lux, the light of his life, had perished.
Her eyes remained fixed on the blue hologram of the man she had come to love, the father of her children, the martyr. She had known that choosing Cassian as her significant other would lead to this, however, she had not planned for it. It was never something she had wanted to witness. And just like that it flickered away, on to the next fallen soldier and the next, and the next.
Her hands began trembling as she allowed ragged breaths to escape her cloudy eyes. Dr. Stryker could feel an icy numbness consuming her soul, the tears came without a warning burning down her face.
He was gone.
Cassian had passed in Scarif.
Lya didn't know how it had happened. Nobody knew how or who he had been with. All that she knew was that it had been unstoppable. The planet had literally been obliterated. The only thing that brought her peace was knowing that it was fast and that if anything he hadn't been alone.
His death had not been in vain.
She liked to think that his spirit was with her. Comforting her throughout her mourning, keeping a watchful eye over Jorel, their child. She held the toddler's hand in hers. Everyday he was beginning to look more and more like his father with those dark eyes and his wavy brown hair.
They stood next to a memorial in front of her house. It was simple, just like he would've wanted it.
'In Honor of Captain Cassian Jorel Andor, who sacrificed his life for the Rebel Alliance and died in Scarif. Loving friend, father and husband.'
There was no use in hiding their relationship now. The two had been wed in secrecy. People around the base would gossip and whisper about the doctor and the mysterious parentage of her children.
However, that was now over, there was no more hiding, no more secrets. The only thing left to do was to move forward, and Cassian wasn't completely gone. He lived on, through his children, through his legacy, through the words and actions of those still fighting against the Empire with tooth and nail.
Lya would make sure that legacy stayed alive. She would keep fighting with her whole heart, even if she had just had half of it. For her, for their family, and specially for Cassian.
Author's Note:
I'll admit it.
This story was supposed to be 12 chapters long and I had already written them out, but then my OneNote crashed and everything went down the drain.
*Shoots a hole through my laptop*
So it is time to bring the story for a close. However, I have been wanting to start a Kylo Ren fic with Cassian and Lya's child Esli, so maybe that will happen one day. If it happens keep an eye out for Black Holes.
Thank you so much for the support and patience everyone.
All my love,
Prev: Chapter 9

My opinion to all the characters of the Masked Singer (season 1 to 2)
I'll list down my favorite characters at the final bottom with my greatest confession.
Season 1 characters:
•Hippo- he has swagger and reminds me of my oc Ishmael who is into hiphop and loves hiphop aesthetic.
•Pineapple- don't have an opinion of him but he is funny though.
•Deer- his design is so cool. Loved the steampunk and general aesthetic there, he is also one of my inspirations on making Dog (Nicol) since I am a fan of general uniforms.
•Poodle- she is the reason I first got interested on watching the Masked Singer in the first place! I loved this characters because of the pink (my favorite color), the sassy attitude and just ugh so fashionable! I loved it, she even sings "Heartbreaker" that I deeply loving her performance. Great job Margaret Cho, it very funny to trick Ken of not knowing his own sister.
•Unicorn- she is so pretty. I've been seeing unicorns everywhere in my life today and now. She is so pretty and white, I have a soft spot of her singing "Oops I did it again" and "Fight" song because of her sweet voice.
•Raven- she reminds me of my oc Ishiru. Dark, sympathetic, gothic and mourning of someone's death especially her beloved. I feel you girl.
•Alien- Alien is cool, I can see why everyone is complaining/reminded of Zim from Zim invaders (I also remember watching it in my childhood). I can't stop dancing and modelling myself while listening to "Ex's and Ohs". I didn't know Michael Jackson had a sister, I didn't know much to his family since I was so young before his death. Great knowing you La Toya Jackson.
•Lion- I am not a fan of gold though but dang she sings so strong and the tone is just over the top. I loved listening to "A little party never kill nobody" and "California Dreamin". Nice knowing you Rumor Willis.
•Peacock- this man is a living fabulous, prideful, eccentric bird I ever seen. I loved his performance, he is also funny and his voice is like an old famous singer I ever heard of. Loved the characters that Donny did and the signature moves though. Congrats to Donny for beings second place.
•Bee- I am not much of a Bee fan but I am in loved with her performance "Wrecking Ball". I can't stop listening to that song because of the high notes, strong voice and my own heart and soul suddenly clutching for this empress. Oh hail to Gladys Knight!
•Monster- aww Monster my second favorite character! I really loved you and I almost loved all of his performance (the one song I don't like is "I love Rock and Roll"). I am so glad T-Pain won the game to avenge my Rabbit since he is my second favorite. All hail to the Monster, T-Pain. (P.S: I didn't know he are the one who sing the song from my past, I guess I did know you on my childhood T-Pain).
•Rabbit- the last one is the Rabbit. My favorite character and the only favorite celebrity for the first time of my entire life! I loved so much about the Rabbit, I fell in love with madness, his edgy and lovable character, his neck twitch to show of his craziness, his design and straightjacket, his voice and performance, EVERYTHING! I am so glad to watch him performed but it broke my heart when he is eliminated on 4th place, I was devastated so much I would never ever rewatch his elimination ever. The Rabbit leading me to my forgotten childhood favorite boyband NSYNC. Joey Fatone, you are my first ever celebrity in my heart and will forever be the Rabbit I dearly cherish for my life. Stan for the Rabbit!
My top 3 favorite characters is: the Rabbit, the Monster and the Poodle.
Season 2 Characters:
•Panda- I don't have any opinions of her though.
•Skeleton- Skeleton is just so very elegant and funny. Loved his design, it gives me the vibes of Itward from the game Fran Bow. His performance is good yet I did not expect him to get eliminated in episode 4.
•Flamingo- Flamingo is pretty in pink. Welp, the idea of Peacock's sister idea is dead now. But she is fabulous in anyway.
•Ladybug- she is pretty too, she is also emotional and I am touch.
•Eagle- I don't know much of Eagle and when I get to know his he got the swag and stuff. (I ship you and Penguin so much)
•Tree- she looks weird though. A Christmas tree? It so early here on Philippines though (only started preparing Christmas on September before reaching December). When I heard her voice, I know that voice before somewhere and that person is also wearing a Christmas costume I swear!
•Rottweiler- huh another dog for this season like Poodle. I don't have an opinion of him though, I'm not really interested.
•Flower- she looks wow to look at. She is a big gal here. Like her performance and I have a feeling this is Bee's (or Glady's) friend somewhere since the voice is like a goddess. Also, I ship Flower with Nick because they both holding hands. I was like X.X oof I'm dead by love, I ship them so hard.
•Butterfly- Butterfly is just cool and alright to me, I am blown away with her performance of "Bang bang". That's all I could thought of.
•Fox- dude... I have mixed feelings to his gentleman here. The Fox has the sexy cool voice, the swag and the steampunk theme like Deer had but I don't think so. I'm not really interested on him unless he changed my mind by getting to know him every episode so I could concluded my theory. (His dancer and his performance reminds me of me with Nicol on stage. Me as a dancer to Dog's performance, what the fudge O_O)
•Black Widow- dang the twirking and the voice is just give me the face like this O.O . she looks edgy and cool, I don't know whether she will survived through episodes.
•Penguin- aww a cute Penguin~ pretty small though and goofy as well. I also want her and the Eagle together like seriously! OwO who is with me to the ship train of Eagle x Penguin?
•Leopard- oof!!! Right in the dokoro and I went doki doki to this spontaneous leopard ❤! I I can't stop listening to his performance "Somebody to love" and when I first listened, I am in the middle of confusion and shock then went to fell in loved to this character. All hail the queen (or king?), I have a soft spot to who ever he is.
•Thingamajig- Oof! I've been hit! My man is a living angel from heaven. I loved him so much omg. His voice, his character and I sympathies his clue about his darkest moment when he went to rehab. Protect this baby! I couldn't help but thought of Thingamajig is the cousin of Monster. Who ever he is, I'm going to do a headcanon for both Monster and Thingamajig's relationship as cousins from heaven.
•Egg- I never get tired of this flamboyant, sassy and fabulous egg. I loved him so much omg I can't with his sassy and flamboyant attitude. I have a soft spot of guys with flamboyant glamour and stylish taste of fashion. Johnny Weir, you are my god to worship of your egg boi. Too bad he is no longer on the Masked Singer :(
•Ice Cream- he is such a lovable and adorable dude! I loved sweet, I'm a sweet tooth of course. But my man, he is just so sweet and friendly to watch him. Loved the performance "Old town road" you aren't well trainer enough, but I was blown away to reveal Ninja in this. I didn't know youtubers can be also be called celebrities. I just thought youtubers are just people who wanted to expressed themselves for entertainment normally but I wanna thank my friend to explained me that youtubers can be celebrities too. Nice work Ninja!
My top 3... No top 4 favorite characters for season 2 is: the Egg, the Ice Cream, Thingamajig and Leopard.

The Star Fox Adventures Game Manual -- Analysis
Tumblr media
So, you may remember a few months back, I received a lot of hate mail on AO3 and FF.net for a fic that I posted that I’ve since taken down in hopes of redoing someday.  The hate was largely from people who don’t like Panther (the fic was Krystal x Panther) but a lot of their arguments were attempts to debunk how “canon” my fic is.  With a lot of my fics, I don’t stray too far from canon, but I do fill in “gaps” with my own headcanons.  I feel like the SF series is a comfortable enough blank slate to do that.  Mild spoilers for future fics, but one of these headcanons is that Panther is Cerinian.  I’ve actually covered this headcanon previously on my blog but I’m too lazy to look up the link.  
One of the arguments my “secret admirer” tried to make about how my fic “contradicts canon” is that “Well, Panther can’t be Cerinian because the Star Fox Adventures manual says that Krystal is the sole survivor.” (and then they made a hate fic about how my headcanon of Panther being Cerinian couldn’t possibly work, but that’s a story for another time).
Admittingly, I hadn’t looked at the manual in most of a decade, so that little tidbit escaped my memory.  But honestly, with Cerinian OCs flying around left and right in the fandom, I thought it was an odd piece of info to nitpick about.  Regardless, it sparked some intrigue, so I decided to poke around the internet and lo and behold, I found a PDF copy of the manual.  Since it’s been a long while since the last time I read the manual, I decided to do an analysis on it.  Analysis with pictures under the cut!
Tumblr media
This is the “prologue” of Star Fox Adventures and while it’s all good and dandy, I want to point out three very important things-- 1. Peppy retired at this point, not after Krystal showed up. I mean, this is relatively minor but I thought it was noteworthy that our Barrel-Roll Loving Team Dad was already going to be retired before the “next SF game”-- whatever that would have been, though I’m fairly certain Assault’s development launched right at the heels of Adventures, if not while Adventures was in late development still. 2. Slippy apparently traded in his pilot’s wings to become a mechanic, which is... blatantly ignored in both Assault and Command because while he does mechanic-like stuff (playing off of his role as the “team smartie pants”), he still very much is a pilot. 3. Falco left because he was bored is only a rumor.  I know “Farewell Beloved Falco” tackles this to a degree. I want to also note that this inspired me to re-read Farewell Beloved Falco on Monday and there’s no real point in the manga that says Falco left because he was bored (I have my own speculation as to why he left but I’ll save that for later).  I find it really odd that the manual says Falco “simply disappeared”, when he very clearly left with great bravado at the end of the manga.  He didn’t vanish into the night or anything, like this would imply.  He said he was going to go solo for a bit and flew off after the Titania Incident.  It... feels like maybe there was a miscommunication here between who was giving the person writing the manual details.
Tumblr media
This is the Character Bio page, which, to my secret admirer’s glee, does contain the info that Krystal is the only survivor of Cerinia.  It also name drops Cornerian Weapons R&D, which has also never been heard of before or since this manual. I actually searched excessively for more mentions about this and yielded no results.  Curious.  I had never noticed that and assumed Slippy had just been tinkering on stuff for fun.  Also oof, my heart at ROB being considered a full-fledged SF member.
I’m going to skip over the parts I don’t have any commentary on.  
Tumblr media
So it’s pretty clear from the final product that Rareware had no idea what they were doing with the SpellStones.  They clearly absorb magic from the planet to keep the planet from falling apart (which says to me that this is not the planet’s natural state but I’ve talked about that before so I’ll spare you the ramble).  But what was going on with them is really unclear.  I understand that Dinosaur Planet gives a better explanation of the SpellStones but that purpose does not seem to be canon any longer.
The text here implies that Scales has every single SpellStone in his possession (the Queen EarthWalker ALSO states he removed the SpellStones himself).  Yet, when you make it into the game...
Tumblr media
(Special note: I found this pic on Google and the file was called “Asshole”, which, tbh isn’t inaccurate but it gave me a chuckle so I thought I’d share it.)
Scales doesn’t possess all of the SpellStones.  Drakor, a mutant in Scales’s army, guards the one at Dragon Rock-- we can assume Scales is responsible for that.  The King RedEye has been fitted with one in his head-- we can assume Scales is responsible for that.  But past that? We find Scales in the CloudRunner Fortress treasury with the first Ocean SpellStone, which he has clearly just found.  And the entire point of DarkIce Mines, the entire reason the SnowHorn are enslaved, is because Scales is looking for the SpellStone.  Which says to me that the SpellStone wasn’t even removed by him.  He wouldn’t have had to enslave the entire tribe to go digging for it otherwise.  He wouldn’t have had to lay siege to CloudRunner Fortress either.
So this entire plot point is absolutely inconsistent to what’s in the manual and even... in the game. What is the reasoning behind this?  Probably the innumerable plot changes during SFAdv’s development.
With the fortunate release of the Dinosaur Planet ROM and the creation of the Warlock Engine by Hugo Peters, a lot has been uncovered in terms of how Dinosaur Planet would have originally looked like.  Dark Ice Mines, for instance, was actually meant to connect via the SnowHorn Wastes (or, Northern Wastes) via a small cave entrance on the other side of the river near where one finds Garunda Te.  The cave still exists in the finalized version of the game but leads to no where.  
However, with Star Fox being added in, I think Rare felt the need to add in things that made the game feel a bit more in line with the Star Fox series.  The planet pieces being torn apart was a way to shove in Arwing sections of the game.  And the devs needed a reason for the change in the planet’s state... and what’s a better throwaway reason than “it’s just magic, bruh”?  So the SpellStones, being focal points in the game’s story, were changed to being part of the reason for the planet falling to pieces. That led to DarkIce Mines, despite having a basically completed map, getting yoinked from the planet’s surface and tossed into space, meaning the entrance was sealed.  The reason for all of this was handwaved into “Oh, Scales did this because he removed the stones” without... the game actually reflecting much of that at all because most of it had been made with a different story in mind.
I think Rare did this hoping that no one would look at the plot too closely but uh oh, that didn’t happen.  And if you need further proof that this was all a bit of an “oopsie” on Rare’s part, you need not look much further than DarkIce Mines once more.  Belina Te has a small throwaway line about how her father hid the SpellStone in the mines.  She says something to the effect of “He didn’t say where he hid it, only that it was somewhere safe” which is code for “Yeah lol I stuck this important object crafted by the gods into the claws of a giant monstrosity but it’s w/e”.  Maybe he was hoping that Galdon would protect it from Scales.  I mean, it’s not a bad thought, really...
But the fact that the game seems to imply Scales has all the stones is still technically wrong.  Now, because I think about these things a little TOO much, here’s my theory as to how this could have technically worked: All the SpellStones are placed in the same spot, you just traverse different routes (The Force Point Temples) to reach that spot. The only way I could see Scales making out with 2 out of 4 SpellStones is that there was a battle between the SharpClaw and the other dinosaurs at the central point where the SpellStones are located and General Scales was only partially successful.  Which could very well be the case, but, unfortunately, the manual and game seem to not act as though this is the case...
tl;dr for that section: This literally makes no sense no matter how you slice it and sure, you can come up for reasons that things ended up this way but ultimately, the game is conflicting with itself about its own story.  But let’s move on.
Tumblr media
Apparently atmospheric conditions are so powerful on Sauria that it can interrupt communications, which I thought was a neat lore tidbit.  
Tumblr media
So I got 2 things from this tidbit about Saurian.
1. This language is called “relatively new”, even though it’s existed for thousands of years, which feels like a contradiction?  A quick Google search estimates English has been around for 1400 years, to put that into perspective and I think English is considered to be fairly new compared to other languages, but I’m honestly not too terribly learned on that.  Of course, that’s only viewing this through the lens of someone who lives on Earth.  Having a language around in the Lylat System only for “a few thousand years” makes me wonder how long the older languages have existed?  It’s quite possible that a few thousand years isn’t a long lifespan for a language in this universe.  
2. Who were these off-worlders?  And boy do I have theories.
Theory 1. The Krazoa.  They are seemingly the gods to the dinosaurs and speak the same language.  This could mean that they taught the dinosaurs this new language.  It would fit the bill for their portrayal in this game. They are godlike entities, the dinosaurs do revere them... it makes sense.  
Theory 2. The ones who taught the dinosaurs how to talk were the Cerinians. There is mild evidence for this with Krystal understanding Dino Speak without a translator despite being new to the planet (evidenced by the fact the CloudRunner had to explain the Krazoa to her/some dialogue bits about her learning of General Scales/the brief exposition we get about her searching the Lylat System for answers).  You could argue this is due to her telepathy - she could just simply be talking in a way that the dinosaurs can understand but I don’t think Krystal’s telepathy had been firmly established as part of her character at this point (she had the ability to leave telepathic messages onto her staff and she could channel magic into Andross, but her true telepathy powers weren’t really shown until Assault).  Krystal’s staff also seems strangely in-tune with Sauria, which I’ve theorized about previously.  I’m mostly thinking on the Magic Caves that are conveniently scattered on Sauria.  It could be that Cerinians had built the shrines within the Magic Caves to help their descendants out if they ever showed up to Sauria.  So, I guess the tl;dr version is “Maybe the Cerinians had previously been on Sauria and had established the Magic Caves and had taught the dinosaurs their native language?” 
To summarize my thoughts, the manual is a reflection of SFAdv itself- riddled with weird plot inconsistencies that you can almost fudge reasons/logic to cover but some of it feels like stretches for the sake of making plot make sense.  There’s some contradictions in the lore/story but despite that, there’s still interesting tidbits to be found.  
If anything, this booklet kind of validates my feelings from the post I made about canon awhile back.  Not all of the canon makes sense when you nitpick it to death.  When the source material conflicts with itself, you’re not going to win a “this is canon because x and y, etc” because... well... the story itself doesn’t even seem to know what’s canon.
Additionally, canon is something derived partially from people’s own experiences.  Two people can consume the same media and come to different conclusions and that’s fine.  We don’t need to have these tired debates about whose interpretation of canon is better.  We just need people to understand that while their interpretation may fit them but it may not fit everyone.  And that’s why, as I have begun doing Fanon Hot Take posts, I keep that disclaimer up.  I don’t wanna say “My opinion of how to interpret canon/fanon is the best opinion” because that’s stupid. There is no definitive “best” because it’s all subjective.  But people get into their own feelings so much about their interpretations and that’s when we have these debates of “well, my idea is better than yours”.  Then people try to dismantle each other instead of just appreciating the different ideas being brought to the table.  And it’s exhausting.
Frankly, I don’t ever think Panther being Cerinian will be canon.  But Nintendo has not, as of this date, said he’s not.  But that’s my interpretation of his character until Nintendo gives us more to go off of.  And if my interpretation bothers someone enough that they decide to send me harassment over it, then that’s on them.  I will not be apologizing for my interpretations, even if they do go against the grain.  It’s a pity people like that exist, that would rather tear at others than try to just enjoy the content that appeals directly to him but alas, they are not the first person to be like that and they will not be the last.
On a lighter note, while I am still bothered by this person going out of their way to be so spiteful, I want to thank them for inspiring me to look at the text.  It validated my feelings further and it made me realize how stupid the canon debate is.  I actually had a blast going back over this book and re-reading everything.  I hadn’t gotten to lay eyes on this booklet in years!  I really hope I get to do this for other SF games because a lot of these manuals have such hidden gems.
Thank you for reading this ramble/analysis!

how would you and your ocs react if your lover was being flirted with by someone else and when they said no, the other person forced a kiss on them?
{{lilly- alright let's see if I can still write scenarios also (r/n)=random name
cherry- she glares menacingly as her mind tries to ration out her reasoning as she stomps over. pulling her (s/o) away and kick the person who dares kiss what she holds dear regardless of gender “oh dare flirt then kiss my beloved has sold your doom” she stomps on the repeatedly as her (s/o) and try pulling her away.
obara-the second their lips touch the storms over pulling there (s/o) away and throwing (r/n) into a wall and grabbing (s/o) hand and walk of grumbling how lucky they are he didn't kill them’. then he’d pull (s/o) into a kiss ‘no one else is allowed to kiss these lip you hear me? only i get to”
nkita- normally he would be able to keep his cool but a forced kiss was out of bounds. his eyes darkened as he snaps his fingers as guard like dolls appeared dragging (r/n) to a dark alleyway. as nkita walked over to (s/o) wrapping his arms around his lover “they’ll pay they don't get a chance to see life through the eyes of my dolls there not worth it....waste of space’ he normally does not talk like that but only when he’s really pissed!. a few minutes later and the humanoides dos returns covered in blood. “good now that That's over” he holds his dears hand and walks off dragging them along.
star:normally she would have just walked over and smashed there face in but this time...it was different she let them enjoy a second or two of the kiss before something shot them in the head. star pulled (s/o) close to her as it happens “oh dear must be someone that recognizes me here let's move” she states calmly completely ignoring the terror of the people around her running away.
gem:when (r/n) held above ther heart in pain gem just stood there from afar as there bloodstream crystalized “poor thing didn't even last 2 seconds like everyone else I've killed” she mumbled.
frosghen: oh look at that their bodies burning oh look there house is too how FUN!

Toxic Veins (Alucard x OC): Chapter 3
Warnings: Violence, Explicit Language, Death
Pairings: Alucard x OC
Word Count: 2692
Summary: After the memorable reunion with the members of Hellsing, and the meeting of the strange vampire, Alucard, we travel to our location where we attempt convincing an entire police force to allow us to kill a legion of ghouls and their vampire leader. Well, this should be an interesting encounter. I still have a few questions regarding the nonhuman amongst Hellsing that appears to have an ego bigger than his hat. Perhaps my dear old friend Integra will be kind enough to answer those questions. 
Let's find out, shall we?
Tumblr media
The entire atmosphere stood quietly. The only sound was the whirling blades of the helicopter.
My lids were half-lidded, covering the magenta orbs that stared mindlessly at the earth below. My arms lay comfortably crossed as my hair blew in my face, tickling my skin. That was when I caught sight of the red figure walking below, disappearing into the forest.
"When were you planning on telling me you had a vampire working for you?" I moved my head to look at Integra, who sat with her arms and legs crossed on the opposite side of me.
"When it became relevant. As it did when you agreed to work with us." She simply said.
"And why are you allowing him off on his own? You know how reckless they can be, yet he's killing his own kind alone. Are you certain you can trust him?"
She looked at me in absolute seriousness. "I trust him with my life. As much as I trust you. He's not just any other pitiful vampire you have killed before, Phyre."
Now that piqued my interest. I rose my eyebrows. "And what makes him different from others?"
There was a moment of silence before she sighed. "Do you remember a certain individual known as ‘Count Dracula’?"
Count Dracula? What's that got to do with anything? We're talking about Alucard.
Wait.
D-r-a-c  c-a-r-d   u-l-a  A-l-u
Isn't Alucard just Dracula spelled backward? Does that mean Alucard is...
My head snapped to the right to stare at her. "You didn't."
"Actually, I didn’t. My father did. I just happened to inherit him after his death."
My eyes widened. "Why the hell would Arthur keep Dracula as a servant? And how, he's Dracula?!"
Her lips puckered. "Well, technically he is Vlad Tepes III—"
"I don't care what his name was, Integra! He is the king of vampires that Abraham Van Helsing supposedly killed, why of all places would he end up as your servant?"
She closed her eyes and rubbed her temples to rid of the headache that had just appeared.
"Alucard is an ancient vampire who was pressed into service by my ancestor, Abraham Van Helsing, forever bound as a servant of Hellsing after his supposed death. After the death of my father, who was Alucard's previous master, I became the head of Hellsing, along as his new master. He serves me and carries out every order I give him with loyalty and absolute trust. Now, does that satisfy your curiosity?"
I'm not sure. I'm still processing that the king of vampires, the one monster my ancestors were determined to kill, was my coworker.
I hummed and looked back down at the forest. "Yes."
She breathed a sigh of relief and laid her head back, closing her eyes to rest.
"For now, at least."
Her eyes opened back up with a sigh, that made a smirk crawl up my face.
°°°
"Sir Integra, we are nearing Cheddar." Walter's voice played over the speaker.
I looked over at Integra as she took out her gun and checked her ammo, before cocking it.
"Is your plan to kill the policemen? If not, I'd recommend a more advanced piece of weaponry."
She looked up at me. "I could say the same to you. It wouldn't do any good, besides, they're already dead."
I rose an eyebrow. "You seem certain of that."
"I am."
"Then why bother coming if you don't plan to save them?"
She gave me a knowing look. "These are scared humans who don't have a clue what they are doing. They don't have the knowledge, nor the proper tools to stop what's happening, so instead, they send in their troops. They might as well be burying them in their graves."
I watched as she hid her gun in her jacket. "Our job is to properly rid of the problem and prevent an increase in the body count. Now..." As the chopper neared the ground, she stood up and looked down at me. "Are you ready?"
°°°
I poked my head out and followed after Integra as she exited the chopper and walked through the camp up to a large tent that was heavily guarded by soldiers. My eyes looked upon them as they stared at us in both cautiousness and curiosity.
I glanced back at Walter, who closely followed, then walked next to Integra and lowered my voice. "Do you honestly think they will believe a word we say?"
She looked at me from the corner of her eye. "It's all in a matter of persuasion, Phyre. You should know plenty about that, considering your preferred tactics."
A small smirk curved at my lips. Maybe it wouldn't be that hard to believe.
°°°
"What? Are you really serious?"
Apparently, it was.
"Do we appear to be in a humorous mood, officer?" My emotionless face stared directly at the group of officers across from us, specifically at the one who spoke.
"I'm sorry, but could you perhaps repeat yourself one more time? Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, is it?" He asked at Integra, whose back was to him as Walter removed Integra's coat, letting her blonde hair fall down her shoulders, and bowed.
"Very well. I'll start again." She turned and looked at him through her lenses. "They're ghouls, and the village of Cheddar has become a den of ghouls. A ghoul is what happens to deflowered humans when they're bitten by a vampire. They're much like zombies under the control of a vampire. And that means there's a vampire somewhere in Cheddar." She rose her hand, signaling for Walter.
The officer looked at her as if she was mad and laughed. "Hmph, that's ridiculous. Vampires? Do you really expect me to believe this occult nonsense?" He questioned as Walter opened a container of cigars for Integra.
I narrowed my eyes at him while Walter glared at him from the corner of his eye.
Integra picked up a cigar and put it to her lips. "Why on earth would a cheap bureaucrat like yourself know anything on the matter? How dare you even question my credentials? The Hellsing Organization has been defending the British Empire from such monsters for generations!"
By looking closely at the officer, I saw the fear shaking in his eyes. She looked at me and nodded for me to speak while Walter lit her cigar.
"Allow me to illuminate. The Hellsing Organization is a special operations agency charged by Her Majesty with the duty of finding and eradicating all supernatural and satanic threats to the Church and Crown."
I lowered my red tinted shades to stare directly at the man who spoke. "There's a vampire in Cheddar that's controlling the ghouls—a monster from the pits of hell. Send in all the troops you wish, send every last man under your command, they'll end up little more meat. Or they may suffer a worse fate. When a vampire drinks from a virgin of the opposite sex, a new vampire is created. Otherwise, your people become food, and then join the vampire's unholy legion of ghouls."
"Sir, I've completely lost radio contact with Squads 2 and 3." The correspondent sitting by the radio informed.
One of the officers stepped up and walked forward. "Bollocks. What's going on? Report. Come in!"
Integra blew out a puff of smoke. "If you are to stop the ghouls from further multiplying, you're going to have to terminate that vampire at the source." She looked at them with a small smirk. "And this is where Hellsing comes in. We will take care of your vampire."
The officers looked at her in disbelief. "That's... insane."
She turned and crossed her arms at them. "I can assure you, gentlemen, that one of our finest anti-vampire field agents is already in route to Cheddar. This will be settled in a matter of hours."
"What sort of agent would handle this?"
"When dealing with monsters— vampires especially—I promise there is no better expert walking this earth."
Yes, no better exp—wait.
I looked at her with furrowed brows. Did she just...?
Meanwhile...
ALUCARD
My footsteps made me known by the crunch of the leaves beneath my feet. I was surrounded by the beauty of the night, yet only one stayed on my mind...
My beloved queen has returned to me. She has yet to remember our past, but that doesn't matter. All that matters is that I can see her beauty every morning, afternoon, and evening.
Oh, the smell of her blood running beneath those veins hiding under her smooth rose-tinged ivory skin was intoxicating.
I took a moment to gaze up at the illuminating glow of the evening moon. "How beautiful... Nights like this make me want to have a bite to drink. Yes... I couldn't imagine a more... perfect evening." My eyes glowed a bright red beneath the hue of my orange goggles.
My beloved Nica...if only you were here beside me...that would make it truly perfect.
I resumed my walking through the green forest. Once I rid of this, I shall return to you and we will once again be reunited...iubita mea de flori. (My beloved flower)
"Aahhhh!!!" The scream tore through me like a great shard of glass. I felt my eyes widen and pulse quicken, my heart thudding like a rock rattling in a box. The scream was desperate, terrified...human.
Nica?
Flashback...
"Vlad! Please! Don't do this to me...please don't do this to us!" I peered down at my queen and snarled.
How dare she! She doesn't have any faith in me—I can see the lies written all over her face!
She looked up at me with tears streaming down her face. "I-I love you..."
My glowing red eyes had narrowed into slits as I knelt down to grab her chin. She whimpered in pain at the bruises I was sure to leave on her. "Lies! You filthy wench! You never loved me, it was all lies!"
There was a pure shock in her eyes. "V-Vlad, I would never—"
"Just admit it! You don't love me—you are afraid of me! That's why you went to him!"
"No, I only love you, Vlad, please!"
"Shut your mouth! You don't think I know where you go—what you do after dusk? You make me sick! I don't need you!" I made her look at my three newest brides that awaited my company on my plush bed, which was sure to break her.
She looked at them with a hurt expression. "No. Y-you wouldn't."
I grinned. "Oh, Nica, I already have." I threw her to the ground. "You've been replaced. Now get out of my sight!"
Nica...
As I walked forward, I realized my queen was safe, with my master. The scream had come from a human police girl that was currently being groped by the vampire I was sent to kill.
Yes. I was to rid of him—grind him to dust, and only then shall I see my beloved. I grinned as I approached them.
He looked back to stare at me. "Who the hell are you?!"
I peered at him through my goggles. "Your death."
He did a maniacal laugh. "My death? Oh, really? My god, this is pathetic." He chuckled, then outstretched his arm. "Kill him."
By the snap of his fingers, a barricade of guns was aimed at me and wasted no time and no ammo in emptying its loads into me. The force of the bullets was enough to blast holes through my clothes, my skin, and bone. It penetrated me over and over, all while my grin remained glued on to my face...even when part of it was blown off. I even felt my right arm blow off and fall to the ground.
As the gunfire ceased, my body now lay upon the ground, my dull eyes staring up at that oh so beautiful moon.
The vampire walked forward and stared at my bloody body. "Is that the best you’ve got? Hahahahahahaha!" His laughter echoed throughout the area.
My eyes lit up a bright red. The wind picked up as I summoned my power. "huh…hahahahahaha…"
°°°
PHYRE
"Your agent’s a vampire?!" The officer exclaimed.
Huh. Funny, that's what I said.
Integra smirked as she bit down on her cigar. "Correct. You see, humans make poor vampire killers. They are frail, they are mortal, they are corruptible, body, mind, and soul. The most effective weapon against the vampire is another more powerful vampire."
I gave her another offended look. Honestly. Like I'm not right here!
I couldn’t help but shoot my finger up to interject. "Of course, there are very few humans that are capable of killing a number of vampires. With the required skill set, of course."
She looked at me, then the soldiers. "Perhaps. However, none may compare to a top of the line vampire that may out its opponent."
Is that so? I don't believe that's what you said earlier.
"The Hellsing organization has such a creature in its ménage. And let me assure you gentleman, our vampire has power beyond imagination."
°°°
ALUCARD
As my body completely healed, I grinned while withdrawing my Joshua and aimed it, watching closely as it fired rounds at every last ghoul in the area. Their bodies all collapsed in a field of death.
"No! How could he be killing them?!" He looked at them as they dropped like flies, then at my Joshua. "It’s those bullets!"
The magazine fell to the ground as I pulled out the next set and replaced it. "The silver cross in Manchester Cathedral was melted down to make these thirteen millimeter exploding shells. Nothing I shoot ever gets back up again…"
His wide eyes stared into me. "But why?! Tell me! Why fight to save these pathetic humans?"
He eyed the human girl behind him, then proceeded to grab her and use her as a shield in front of him, which only made my grin widen.
"Don’t take another step. The girl's the last survivor. Don’t you want to save her? Be reasonable. I’m not asking for much. Just a bit of help. You can look the other way."
I looked directly at the girl. "Are you a virgin, my dear?" I smirked as she grew bright red.
"Ah!?"
The vampire's grin dropped. "What are you doing?"
I kept my eyes locked with the police girl. "I’m asking if you’re a virgin!"
She was frozen at my question. "Vir…I…"
"You bastard!" The vampire snarled at me with narrowed eyes.
I rose my gun and aimed it at them. "Answer me!"
The girl shut her eyes. "Ye..Yes! I am!"
*bang*
I watched the bullet go through her chest, piercing her right breast until it also reached the vampire's heart. "Aaaaaagh!" The vampire flew back by the force of the bullet in a splatter of blood, releasing the girl that fell to the ground.
I went forward and smiled as my hand plunged through his chest and heart. He groaned as blood spilled from his mouth. "You...you" My hand twisted until he disintegrated in a flash of blue light.
Blood dripped down onto the moaning human police girl that lay on the ground, staring up at nothing in a pool of her own blood.
I walked over to peer down at her. "I had to shoot through you to pierce his heart. I’m sorry, but you’re dying. And there’s no time left. The choice is yours. What do you want to do?"
With all the strength she could gather, she rose her hand up—to what, I wasn't sure. Tears watered in her eyes as she reached out to me as if asking me to save her.
It was interesting, having someone want to be saved by a monster. This girl has been left with nothing. She faced these undead monsters, knowing her dull bullets would only result in her death. It was very interesting.
That was when her strength wavered and fell weak. Her arm fell, and I unintentionally caught her hand with mine. The symbol stitched into my glove glowed as I grinned.
"Police girl…Tonight is truly…A beautiful night."

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT QUESTIONS // ACCEPTING ( MOSTLY FOR MY OC’S )(SPECIFY MUSE )
ily for sending them to my main babies lmao
7. How does your character perceive themselves? Positive? Negative? Neutral?
ANGEL //  She, for the most part, perceives herself as positive. Will she kill somebody in an instant? hell yeah. but she doesn’t see herself as a negative person. 
JADE // she sees herself having a chaotic nature - often pushing people away that she cares about most . but she would easily consider herself a neutral person. she is negative and hurtful when she needs to be but she can also have a kind and soft heart.
12. Describe 5 unusual characteristics your muse has.
michael // ( okay so these will be mostly AU but here we go ) //
michael loves his bike as much as his life. out of everything he brought from his old life this is the most important to him. hes always spent time fixing it up and cleaning it. it is one thing that brings him joy.
michael enjoys weight lifting. he is by no means a typical california muscle beach meat head but he likes to keep himself in shape.
he is ready to take on any challenge and prove himself. he hates being looked down upon due to how his father figure was. dare him to do something- he is likely to do it. hell, he almost ran his bike off of a damn cliff.
in his vampiric life - michael often staves off his thirst as long as he can. this has a negative effect on the vampire and he will often bathe in the blood of his next victim - enjoying every last drop in a gorey mess.
although he wasn’t at first - michael is extremely loyal towards david and the boys. they have become his new family and he would do anything for them. 
JADE // 
she loves scissors. not a single day goes by where she doesn’t have a pair on her. 
her favourite pair of scissors was broken by Cat on accident ( in a story with @bibbleobsessed , specifically ) . they were an actual prop from her favourite horror film.
jade’s favourite horror film is THE SCISSORING. and no. it is not a lesbian porn, okay.
she is EXTREMELY talented at staying in character. one time she grabbed a PIPING HOT cake pan from the oven and gave herself third degree blistering burns on her hands and she STILL didn’t break character.
take Jade’s coffee away and you will find yourself on the wrong side of her scissors. trust me. it’s like the one thing she loves. besides cat.
CARMILLA KARNSTEIN // 
she can turn into a panther. an odd ability, but one that has proven to be useful. so if you want a giant black house cat / like sookie @vampirecrack / there you go.
carmilla LOATHED every minute she was forced to spend inside that blood filled casket, forever mourning the death of her beloved ELL.
her maman is satan incarnate. she would literally pick a hot date with satan over spending one day with Lilita like ever again.
carmilla hasn’t had a single night’s rest since she felt the betrayal of her sweet Ell seeing her as the monster she was.
feeding from Ell all those nights was her biggest regret. if she could go back then she would gladly change the outcome.
ANGEL // 
angel LOVES reading comic books. her favourites are dark horse comics. but she has been known to own an issue of batman that is  e x t r e m e l y   rare when she was human. 
she always wore a single black leather braided cord bracelet - up until she gave it to STAR. her sister hand made it for her when they were little and it meant the world to her. some days she regrets giving it to star, other days she is happy because it was a tie to her old life.
she was raised in a CATHOLIC family. they sent her to private school as long as she can remember and she  h a t e d   every moment of it.
s o m e b o d y   always seems to steal her clothes and knives. but she’s cool with it. she’d never try to get them back anyways - unless her siouxsie sioux signed shirt or the cure tour shirts happened to disappear.
angel would KILL to go to a misfits or sex pistols show live. she always used to secretly watch them on TV back home behind her parents back.
( and another for shits and giggles ) Angel cut her hair short when she was fourteen while her mother and father were out of town at a conference. when they returned her father beat the living hell out of her literally telling her it was the devil’s haircut. oddly enough they didn’t say a SINGLE thing to her sister ANNIKA when she damn near shaved her head bald not long after.  
2. Does your character have any noteworthy features? Freckles? Dimples? A scar somewhere unusual? etc. // angel
the majority of the upper left side of her face is scarred permanently. she received it as punishment by her ex-coven leader Billy when she disobeyed an order to kill Star. instead she helped her and michael escape their clutches - no matter how much she hated michael for gaining star’s heart. angel is EXTREMELY self conscious about the scars and if she finds that somebody is staring at them she will just look away and towards the ground, staying silent. they serve as a permanent reminder to her to remain loyal to those closest to you. though she will answer any questions when asked about them - to an extent.
