Michael afton was an absolute houdini in elementary school,
even so that the office had to repeatedly ring William to come to the school and find him.
of course, William was always livid about it because that’d mean he’d have to quit tinkering with his marvelous invention to go track down his kid only to find him in the sneakiest corner munching on some fritos or some shit.
He stomped down the halls, scanning every wall and floor tile for a sign: the obvious of an open door, a trail of crumbs, maybe a muddy footprint or two.
“What a pain.” he said under his breath as he passed a class lined up against the wall. He tried not to make eye-contact.
(they also gave will a walkie talkie to communicate between troops-)
“Mr. Afton, we noticed some crayons sprawled out across the 2nd floor,”
Will stopped to rub his forehead, “I’ll be right there.”
When he got to the layout with the other school staff they were running amuck *searching for clues*.
“i cant believe we lost him, AGAIN!”
“this is terrible!”
“oh that poor child, what if he got lost!”
“Mr. Afton we’re terribly sorry but we cant se-“
“move,” William marched right by them to the storage room closet door.
“Michael open the damn door and get your ass outta there.”
Mike’s teacher walked over shyly, “Mr. Afton, you really think he’s in there? its locked at all times theres no way he could possibly-“
“open it or ill do it for you.” he interrupted. he knew his son would pull a lock pick at this hour, the reasoning behind that unexplainable.
Will knocked one more time before the knob slowly twisted and the room opened to show little Mike standing in front of his crayola creation.
“Michael, what on earth!” his teacher was so gullible, completely clueless that Michael could do such.
Whether or not he learned how to pick locks from a 3rd party or his father, William wasn’t telling.
Mike grumbled, “i don’t wanna go back to school!”
“dumbass you’re already at school.” he laughed.
Mike made a “grrrr” sound. (You know, as five year olds do.)
“WILLIAM. i don’t think it’s a good idea to use all of that language with him, for pete’s sake he’s only five.” Ms. Landerson called him by name now, yikes.
Will shrugged, “eh, he’ll hear it all one way or another.”
He bent down to pat Mikes little head before slithering off.
“Mr. Afton! “ Ms. Landerson called at him.
William waved and started down the stairs “If he tries to pull anymore shit take measures, theres a monkey backpack harness in his bag.”

2, 3, 11, and 15 for the unwritten/unpublished ask thing :)
2. How did you get the idea to write this?
i have a fic i wrote a teeny teeny bit for. i got the idea bc i love the show shameless and the concept of lena as fiona. but instead of raising her siblings she’s raising the two daughters lex abandoned and a trans/queer high schooler who would’ve become homeless if lena hadn’t taken her in (nia)
3. If unwritten, when do you think you will start writing it?
i honestly have no idea
11. Is there any scene you can't wait for people toreact to when reading? Why?
in cancer au there’s a scene where a certain character returns and i can’t talk abt it bc spoilers but i am so excited to see how ppl react bc i know it’s smth that they/i have been waiting for for a while
15. Do you have any unwritten scene that you think about a lot?
in the fic where lena has DID, there’s a scene where kara meets a younger alter who doesn’t front very often. it reveals a lot about their past without actually giving any blatant detail and i think abt it all the time

you thought i only had two borrowers questions? HAH. anyway what does the Houston-Perkins home look like? what's their schedule? has tim ever seen paul before getting caught (i rlly like tim and wanna know about his adventures)?
I am unfortunately Very Bad at visualizing settings in my writing, and teeny-tiny Borrower houses are no exception. I couldn't possibly describe what it looks like, just that in the Foster home it's beneath the trailer (with their access point into the house being in Lex and Hannah's room), and in Paul's apartment it's in his living room wall (with the entrance hidden by his couch).
As for schedule, it varies depending on the house. In the Foster home, Tom and Jane would usually only go out at night, since y'know, everyone's asleep. They always make sure to be back by 3 AM, since for reasons unknown to them, Hannah always seems to be awake then. They have to be very careful during late night Borrowings though, since they know that Pamela could get up at any moment for a midnight drink.
In Paul's apartment, it's much more lenient. Since Paul's out of the house most of the day for work, Tom and Emma can afford to go Borrowing during the day. Sundays are an odd exception, he always seems to be home on Sundays.
Tim, unfortunately, doesn't have many adventures to his name yet. He's too young to go Borrowing (in SWoA, Arietty doesn't go out on her first Borrowing until she's almost 14, and Tim's only 9), so all he can really do is sneak out and try to follow Tom and/or Emma when they go out, and get caught immediately and sent back home.
He and Tom (and later Becky, bc she eventually moves in too) don't actually properly meet Paul for a hot while, since Emma keeps her meetings with him a secret. After all, if Tom finds out that Paul knows about their presence, they'll have to move. Like, by the time they find out Emma's been meeting with Paul, she's already long since developed feelings for him.
Anyways, each member of the family has varying thoughts on Paul. Tom has no strong feelings on him, as long as Paul's not killing them, he's okay. Becky feels similarly, though she feels more comfortable living in his home than she did in her last home. Emma, of course, is very fond of Paul. And Tim? Tim is just fascinated by humans in general. He's only caught brief glimpses of Paul before, but he's honestly wowed by him. Paul is genuinely the tallest human Tim has ever seen in his young life, since none of the Fosters reached 6 feet. He didn't think humans could be that tall!

(More) ideas
Ugh I can’t turn off my brain, I’ll just be reading Super Sons or rewatching Young Justice or something and it’ll be like “ya know what’d be a great idea?”
Anyway here are some of the ones I couldn’t get out of my head, feel free to comment or use the ideas for fan fiction (if you do please tag me because I want to read it!!!) also tell me if I should write any of them (I might wait until after my Teen Titans AU is finished, it is extremely close to ending though).
Mari as a part of the Young Justice team
Most likely season 1 lineup (no Rocket or Zatanna though)
Marinette was a protégé of Wonder Woman after the defeat of Hawkmoth
She got fed up with being a sidekick and she and Diana talked it out and decided for her to go to Mount Justice
She attends Gotham Academy with Dick and Artemis, she figures out Artemis’s identity quickly (you know because they literally have the same name), but not Dick’s
Most likely a Dick x Marinette ship
Love square shenagind probably, because Dick won’t be able to figure out Marinette’s super hero identity (I was considering having her be Scarlett Cat or something and have the Ladybug miraculous merged with the cat) because the miraculous magic thwarts all of his and Batman’s attempts to figure out who she is and Marinette doesn’t know who Robin is because she’s blind af.
Mari in Metropolis!
This fic would include original characters (Kay would make an appearance as one of the main characters)
Marinette gets picked to go on a school exchange trip in America (Metropolis specifically) for a whole year.
She meets Kay Khan on the plane and they hit it off right away, she was the other girl who was accepted to the program for the Metropolis branch so they would be living together.
The host family who takes them in is none other than...the Kent’s- hahahaha just kidding I’m far more evil than that.
The host family who takes them in is none other than...Lex Luthor!
He heard a little about what was happening in France, not a lot because miraculous magic and the mayor trying to keep things under wraps, but he knows that the jewels the heroes have can grant wishes and hold immense power, so he wants to exploit the kids he takes in to learn more about the miraculouses and situation in Paris.
Kay and Marinette at first think he’s amazing but when they go to Metropolis high (where they meet Jon Kent) Jon tells them Lex sucks
Marinette does some digging and realizes he does suck, she snoops around with Kay and finds out the real reason he took them in
Can they thwart his plans from getting the miraculouses? (Wiggles eyebrows)
Marinette is Mar’i Grayson
I briefly discussed this with some of you, basically Mar’i was in Paris because her parents (Starfire and Nightwing) were on a mission for the Titans.
When they left her with a babysitter while they took down a drug cartel, the babysitter and her go out to the park where a criminal in the cartel shoots the babysitter causing Mar’i to flee in a panic
Mar’i flies to a bakery because she smells sweets and assumes she’s safe there
Sabine and Tom take her in when they realize who’s daughter she is (they are actually the heads of the cartel, but Kor’i and Dick did not know that)
They basically grow to love her and tell her her old parents abandoned her, so Tom and Sabine raise her as their own
She ends up with the Ladybug miraculous, and she’s happy because she can fly around without people suspecting she’s an alien, all she has to do is say that it’s part of her miraculous powers
Dick and Kor’i never stopped looking for her but they were extremely broken and depressed.
The batboys get called on a mission in Paris, Dick almost doesn’t go because too many bad memories, but he does hoping he might see his daughter again.
Damian goes to DuPont high school as a cover and meets Marinette, he gets a teeny tiny (gigantic) crush
That’s all I have for now. Let me know if anything speaks to any of you! (Please give feedback too!)
Tag list (this is my current Maribat taglist, let me know if you’d like to be added or if I missed you):

After seeing the world in Detective Pikachu I’ve been dying for someone to dive into a supergirl pokeverse fic and honestly you’re the perfect person do it with your particular brand of fun writing style (read: you’re funny af). So I hope you’ll give it a go at some point. 🙏🏻 And that pokemon AU you already wrote is fuking perfect with Kara having a ditto as hers. My mind is reeling from possibilities of whose pokemon is who ajshdkfkfl
I got this ask so, so long ago, but I kinda put it on the backburner while life happened. Then I got another, more recent anon about a Supergirl/Pokemon crossover, so might as well tackle this now… 
Tumblr media
All right, so this is just me going more in-depth on a ficlet I’ve already written, so if you need context or a refresher, I suggest that you read that first (: 
Kara: Ditto (Pikachu & Pidgeot) 
When Kara first lands on Earth, she refuses to get a starter. They didn’t have pokemon on Krypton, so 1) the idea takes some getting used to, and 2) she’s still pretty reluctant to commit to assimilation. Plus, she’s seen a typical starter. All it would take is one wrong step for Kara to accidentally punt Alex’s teeny-tiny growlithe into the very yellow sun that gave her the ability to do so. 
Then one day, Kara comes across a wild rattata that’s pretty insistent on getting in her path. And after one too many missteps where Kara’s forced to hover so as not to step on the pokemon, she gets frustrated enough to uproot a tree—a small one, sure, but a tree nonetheless—as if to demonstrate that she’s a force to be reckoned with. 
The rattata blinks at her, melts into a purple blob, then rapidly sprouts up into a large onix. It uproots an even bigger tree. Then Kara—who’s had to practice for months on end how to be gentle—reaches out and touches the onix without any forethought or worry. When it responds with a small nod instead of recoiling in pain, it’s the first time Kara feels like a human.  
They decide on pikachu for Kara Danvers because it’s disarmingly small and packs a powerful wallop. Pidgeot is decided for Supergirl because it’s the only pokemon that could have flown as quickly as she when Alex’s plane was falling from the sky. 
Lena: Persian 
Lena has collected many pokemon over the years because she’s a practical, resourceful woman. Poison types for developing antidotes and vaccines, electric types for conducting (hah!) experiments & such, and a kadabra to telekinetically handle dangerous chemicals, etc. Her main, however, is a very old persian that’s pretty much useless in all things but taking naps in the morning, afternoon, and setting sun in the corner of her L-Corp office. 
But the persian was originally her birth mother’s main, and now it’s the only thing Lena has left of her late mother besides her first name. And though Lillian let her keep the persian, Lena was also forced to get a “proper” starter—a nidoran—so she’s got a pretty hardy nidorina for battle purposes as well. 
Alex: Arcanine & Sam: Ninetales 
I originally gave Alex an arcanine because I just really adored the image of Alex riding one into battle, but okay, let’s get a bit deeper than that, lmao. And to go deeper, I need to draw some parallels. 
Arcanine and Ninetales are both fire pokemon, yes, but even more importantly, they’re both pokemon that are only evolved through a firestone. That is to say, they don’t just evolve by leveling up like most other pokemon do, it has to be a conscious, thoughtful, active decision. And as an older sister & single mother respectively, Alex and Sam would both make that decision without question.
They would both opt for having stronger pokemon, even if it means losing some of the more nuanced developments along the way. That, in contrast to the un-evolved pikachu (another pokemon that requires an evolution stone) that Kara’s ditto presents as? Really speaks to Alex’s need to protect her sister as loudly as possible. 
And some honorable mentions: 
James isn’t really one to battle—preferring gentle, yet emphatic words & political efforts rather than fists—but when he does, his onix is quite formidable. When he becomes the Guardian, his onix evolves alongside him into a steelix. 
Winn’s main is more for companionship than anything else, so his cubone is perfectly suited for sitting on shoulders rather than battling. 
Like Lena, Lex also took on a nidoran as his starter, but his is evolved all the way to a nidoking—a status symbol of sorts, because it shows that he could afford a moonstone. (Lena could afford one as well, obvi, but she’s a teensy bit less flashy and is perfectly happy with her nidorina)
J’onn doesn’t have a main, or so he says, but he always seems to have the exact right pokemon he needs, perfectly suited for whatever problem that might have arisen…. which is weird because trainers are technically only allowed to carry six at a time. Surely, he can’t be switching out his pokemon that often that quickly, right? Then one day, Kara catches him off guard at the DEO, and manages to see a flash of—oh my god, J’onn. Is that a mew!?

Finally, Crisis on Infinite Earths?
Tumblr media
Let’s dispense with any pretense right up front: CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths is thoroughly dopey, punishingly cheap, and unselfconciously corny in the most heavy-handed ways. It is also, similarly in the spirit of wanting to be direct, probably my favorite live-action DC thing other than The Dark Knight. It’s pure, uncut, unapologetic dork superhero joy injected right into the jugular, every single ambition that a primetime network television soap/procedural/mini-MCU homunculus adaptation of the biggest comic book event of all time could have ever conceivably achieved and far beyond. Not in question that I substantially prefer it to the source material, and it’s if nothing else worth regarding as the singular achievement that it is and will remain: when the movies get around to a Crisis someday, the shared ongoing TV/cinematic universe paradigm means there aren’t going to be fistfuls of actors from past interpretations to draw from the way this could for much longer. This was in all likelihood the one shot to do this in the way everyone wanted it to be done, and it held together.
Not that much in the way of deep analysis to offer, and I already discussed the first three episodes, so let’s just get into it:
* Malthus! Low on the totem pole of shock DCU minutia, but I was mighty pleased.
* Not nor have I ever been much of a shipper, but “Do you trust me?” “With every cell in my body.” is the gayest thing I have ever seen, my lord.
* Literally everything with Lex in here is solid shining gold.
* For all the elements I had assumed were givens that didn’t happen - not that I was bothered by much of it other than I really do wish Danny Trejo had been here - Ezra Miller putting his money where his mouth is was in my dang joke category of stuff that was obviously never going to happen. What an absolute delight, and moreover I had thought in the first place “This scene really feels deliberately structured such that it would fit as a scene in the Flash movie, especially given this is where this version has the idea for the name? But that seems so unlikely!” and then Guggenheim confirmed that the CEO of WB specifically asked for that scene to be included, so I guess the Flash movie is going to be a covert sequel/companion piece to the friggin’ CW Crisis! Even if Gustin’s possibly only in the one bit though, I do hope this means Tom Cavanaghhas at least a cameo.
* The killer dumb as hell line aside, Oliver vs. the Anti-Monitor was conspicuously the best special effect in the whole thing, they clearly blew a lot of the budget on that.
* Wolfman got to be the one to tell them the Earths had been merged! And kudos to him co-writing the Arrow episode, which was probably the best of the lot from a pure storytelling/dramatic standpoint; when I say this was leaps and bounds better than the original Crisis, that’s not a knock on him.
* BEEBO. And Sargon the Sorcerer! But BEEBO. Hopefully him appearing at the height of all this and being a thing the non-Legends have to deal with is a sign of the weirdness continuing to be upped across the board.
* The final plan to defeat the Anti-Monitor is the most beautiful Silver Age nonsense, to the point that I’m fine with the last battle basically being in a Vancouver back alley the way I’d said they’d written themselves out of being able to do a year ago. And while there’s an argument to be made that from an in-universe perspective it should have been Flash to deal the final blow given this has been built up on his show since day one, it feels right that Supergirl as his biggest classic casualty scored the win. Either way, the idea of a teeny-tiny Anti-Monitor bein’ all grumpy in the Microverse for all eternity is a delight. Apparently some complained that he was a boring stock villain in this, but folks, I got some bad news about what they’re drawing from.
* Heat Wave is living his best life and we should all be so blessed.
* Given his backseat role as essentially the most important of the non-central characters, all I was truly rooting for with Hoechlin’s Superman in terms of strutting his super-stuff was getting one good hit in against the Anti-Monitor, and then it turned out he was one of the only three (or four if you count Oliver) who did out of the 50+ or so superheroes in total here, so I was a happy camper. And itty-bitty Superman was funny right away, but even funnier when I realized that was basically making Hoechlin an Atom to go with Routh’s Superman. Can’t wait for the show.
* I assume that as I’ve seen others suggest Earth-12 is meant to be the HBO Green Lantern series and they simply used the related footage they had available, but that movie of all movies therefore getting a shout-out in here is both hysterical and somehow perfect: everything has its place.
* Routh lives, in what might be a brighter rewritten timeline! This could easily be his sendoff and it’d be a perfect one, but I’d of course be more than pleased for him to fill a Kal-L role in Superman & Lois.
* “The first of our heroes”? Did Green Arrow precede Superman, which would be a change in at least one of their timelines? Wasn’t Black Lightning a hero awhile back? Or is this just in the sense of him being the first public human hero? The real answer is that it’s an acknowledgment of his real-world role as the guy who kicked all this off and the logistics don’t matter.
* Justice League! Justice League! Justice League!
youtube
* Wonder what the next crossover’s going to be? Easy answers would be something with Superman in the lead now that he’ll be fully in the fold (I understand the 90s crossover Panic in the Sky! was meant for much the same purpose of positioning him as a leader in-universe), or a Dark Nights: Metal adaptation with Batwoman center stage, but the producers have been adamant that the next entry will be something smaller. Maybe a set of mini-crossovers of two or three shows in blocks, or a subplot building across multiple shows that culminates in one or two big episodes with the League banding together. I’d love for their first adventure as a formal team to be fighting Starro (he could emerge as a Lovecraftian threat ala how Morrison treated him in JLA, only for J’onn to link them up to his mind and he turns out to be the hilarious doofus bully from Metal, but the first big crossover was already an alien invasion that involved a bunch of superheroes being mind-controlled, so there is the concern that it could come off as redundant. I’m still in favor of it though, as it could get us a live-action Jarro.
So there we go, there was a live-action Crisis on Infinite Earths. Whereas its source was dopey junk food in service of tearing down a lot of cool stuff, this was dopey junk food in service of delivering and setting up more cool stuff to come, so I’ll stand by this being the better of the two. What a start to the decade; I grew up with 2020 as The Year Of The Future in the same way I know many did with 2000, and nothing could be more of a signifier that we live in a changed world as far as superheroes’ place in mass-media from when I was a kid than this.

Justice League of America #8
This comic book is full of delusional optimism about my memory.
She might want to get a professional fitting done because I think those things are packed in way too tight.
There's a Hooters just off of Interstate 5 on the border of Washington and Oregon that constantly has part of the sign burned out. So it usually says "HOO ERS" which I find incredibly funny. S.K.U.L.L. happen to be tech rivals of WayneCorp so Batman is using his ties to the Justice League of America to put them out of business. You would think choosing the name S.K.U.L.L. would have done that years ago. But I guess their products are just too good. I wonder what S.K.U.L.L. stands for? I hope the final two letters stand for Lex Luthor. Maybe the name is short for Serial Killers Under Lex Luthor Fighting Upstart Corporate Kompetitors? The Justice League of America (and Black Canary's tits) destroy all of S.K.U.L.L.'s resources and then notice that Makson didn't die in the battle. So they say, "Yay! We saved him!" But they didn't save the bird creatures which were his family and maybe also the place he enjoyed putting his penis. He must have been fucking something in Monster Valley. Maybe that's what makes him a monster?! Back in New York, Makson the Monster Man becomes the hit of the waste of time daytime talk and fluff news shows circuit. He also decides wearing a manbun would be the best look for him. I like the manbun. It's a good indicator that the person is somebody I might punch in the face if I have to spend more than five minutes around them. I wish more people I wanted to avoid would wear them! Makson is apparently in this thirties. What I'm saying is he has definitely fucked a lot of different monsters and possibly trees in Monster Valley. For some reason, Steve Orlando thought it would be a good idea to focus on Makson instead of Lobo. Does he simply hate selling lots of comic books? I suppose if Makson becomes super popular, he'll get creator's rights and a teeny, tiny royalty check when the Makson movie hits porn theaters across the country in 2019. But he'd probably make more money simply by focusing on Lobo. I would pay about a dollar more per issue if I was guaranteed twenty pages of Lobo and his tight ass-*coughcough*-assin's credo. Makson wound up in Monster Valley at three years old when his parents' plane crashed, killing his mother and father. He learned English from the plane's emergency manuals which explains why he's using "foraging" incorrectly in the following panel:
The word you're looking for is "fucking."
Back in Happy Harbor, Black Canary is all, "What if he's a big fakey douche? Look at his manbun! Seems suspicious!" But Ray is all, "I think he's cool because I want to eat his asshole." But Batman is all, "I agree with Black Canary because when have I ever trusted anybody? We'd better figure out what he's really up to!" And Lobo is all, "Can I kill him yet?" The members who want to trust Makson are all, "Batman is a fucking dick! He's supposed to trust people and give them second chances! How dare he not interfere with the guy's life at all while secretly investigating him to make sure his story adds up so that he doesn't wind up hurting or killing people? Asshole!" It's a good thing Batman doesn't care what his lackeys think about him. Ryan Choi disagrees with Batman but understands that phrase about being better is safer than being sorry. You know which phrase I mean! The one that describes this situation! The one that doesn't go "It's better to be killed by a person you trusted than to hurt their feelings if they somehow discover you'be been investigating them without their knowledge." That saying is only ever used in the Writer's Room at The CW.
I can't think of a dumber way to spend one's inheritance and I'm currently thinking of airdropping sno-cone makers to penguins in Antarctica.
Did your butthole clench as tight as mine did at the phrase "activist genealogists"? That's exactly the type of thing I'd expect somebody sporting a manbun to say! While Ray, Vixen, and Killer Frost talk about Batman behind his back, Batman, Lobo, and Black Canary track S.K.U.L.L. back to Infinity Island. The Atom sneaks into Mawkson's apartment to figure out if he's been busy eating people the way his bird family probably taught him to do. Or maybe he'll find all of Makson's fuck birds. Batman learns that S.K.U.L.L.'s new backers are Makson's billionaire family members so S.K.U.L.L. was looking to find Makson and kill him if he was still alive so he wouldn't take away their funding for something stupid like hiring activist genealogists. And Ryan discovers that Makson has been using activist genealogists to find all of his family members so he can kill them. Well, that's finally something I approve of! I bet Lobo does too! So Makson wants to kill his family? I guess he knew they were behind S.K.U.L.L. fucking his bird family and other monster lovers. Now they have to die for their villainy! I don't know if I want to see Lobo beat his ass or high five him.

Daily Drabble //nov-15//
An Average Night at the Afton's
Rating: T Word Count: 696
“I’ll be back before 11, uh, order pizza or something.”
William sighed, picked up his bags, and left. Not minding the impact of the door slamming behind him.
Michael hadn’t really heard him, nothing he hasn’t adjusted to by now- order pizza, back before 11 (sometimes), and a douche of a door slam. His father was rarely ever home and admittedly for the better, gave Mike time to cool off and let his defensive mask down.
“Shit.” Mike mumbled under his breath, firmly placed his hands on the table and let his head hang.
“Mikey?”
He quickly turned to see Elizabeth standing in the hallway. Her Eyes told Michael everything. She was worried.
“Oh, Lizzy. Hey, are you doing okay?”
He felt so guilty for letting her see him this way. He wanted her to just have a happy childhood, not be broken down in her own home, like he was. Lizzy hesitated.
“I took a nap. Evan’s still sleeping. Did Daddy leave? He said he would say bye first.” The words were so soft, eyes locked to the floor.
Mike couldn’t get the words out. He walked over to Liz, kneeling down to give her a big hug before gently wiping the tears from her cheeks.
I'm sorry was all his brain repeated but he just looked into her eyes, heartbroken eyes.
Asshole. Forget your children again?
“Mikey, w-why doesn’t Daddy love us?
There was so many things Michael wanted to say but this was not the right time. Right now he just needed to comfort his sister as best he could until they could both just forget about everything. At least that’s what he wanted to do. Mike liked to think they could do just fine without William.
Mike took a deep breath and pulled his finger away from Lizzy’s delicate damp cheek. He walked over where the housephone was, grabbing the couple dollars left on the table as he went.
“Hey, yes it’s Mike again, same as usual.” He made eye contact with Liz. “Oh actually if you could add some of those cinnamon bites that’d be dope. Okay, thanks man. Later.” He smirked as Lizzy’s eyes lit up in what made her look like a glowing star.
She laughed and ran into Michaels arms. He shared a chuckle with her lifting her above the ground and spinning around the kitchen floor.
“I have to go tell Evan!” She squealed and ran off to Evan’s bedroom.
Michael smiled as she left. This was exactly what he hoped, the house would have a good night. Mike waited till she was out of sight to slide into his room and empty his very miniscule savings jar. William only ever left just enough for them to get one pan, the treat would cost Mike about half his coins.
Eventually, his dad would have to start paying him for his work at the Diner, and that age was coming soon. Until then it didn’t really matter, he just used the money he did manage to collect to buy new records and boards anyway.
On the thought of records, Mike decided to play his freshly bought Led Zep record. William hated when he played it, too bad he wasn’t ever around to hear it.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
Mike plopped on the bed and chewed on a lolipop, bopping his head to the beat. Zoning out to a daydream.
His door slowly swung open to show Evan and Elizabeth’s excited faces.
“Pizzaman’s here! Pizzaman’s here!” Lizzy squealed.
Yawning, Michael covertly slid the coins in his shorts pocket and hopped out off the bed and into the hallway.
“Guys’ excited?” Mike asked his siblings, affectionately.
“YEAHH” Lizzy bounced down the hall and down the staircase.
Mike glanced over at Evan while he slid his jacket over. He looked tired, clutching his Fredbear plush closely.
Michael nudged him gently, “Hey, how about we watch that new Star Wars film? Or Jaws, but i dunno if you and Liz could handle it.”
Evan smirked, “I like Starwars.”
“Alrighty that settles it. you, me, and Char will go see it next showtime."
"Promise?"
"Promise."

’:* Call me if you want *:’
Jax/Zooble University Au //part 1// Rating: T Word Count: 551
“The doors’ unlocked!”
Another loud knock.
Jesus. This idiot. Zooble got up from her twin size bedspread and set her headphones down before heading to the open door. She was admittedly curious to see what was keeping them from just opening the door.  It didn’t take but the second she turned the knob for a loud “Thump” to shake the frame. And there the enigma was, on the ground covered in cardboard boxes and duffel bags. He has obviously been struggling to keep ground for a while, and the quick bizarreness of it all just charmed her. She couldn’t repress this giggle-
“Yeah yeah, let it all out.” He started up, patting off his legs and salvaging what was left of the bag of gummies dropped in the fall. “Sheesh.”
“Pro Tip: Set your bags down before interacting with a door.” She scoffed, playful and sarcastically. The guy just looked up at her, brow raised. Sighing, Zooble bent down and grabbed the box next to her, “If you can.”
“Dunno, the hall janitors kept mistaking them for waste.” He shrugged. But the little side eye screamed ‘two can play this game’. 
Nice. She stacked another box to the side, “So, what were you doing here anyway? Isn’t your dorm like, a mile away?” 
“Pfft- A mile to find you? That's too much credit.” He sneered, winking as he pulled out a lollipop from his pockets. “Name’s Jax. Wanna lollipop?” 
Who the fuck was this guy?
“Sure.” 
Jax nodded, lollipop hanging from his mouth, and pulled out a butterscotch flavor. He squinted at it for a millisecond, then put it back in his pocket and pulled out another pop. This one got an excited response. He held it in front of Zooble, face turned away, but visibly smirking.
“You’re kidding.” Zooble’s deadpan reaction was met with a little roar of laughter. He knew that was coming. Specifically picked out the mystery flavor just to see the eyeroll.
“Ohh trust me, those are the best.” He taunted, additionally popping a gummy out of the bag. He's a sweet tooth, that's for sure.
He stood at the door frame, brow cocked and hands on hip for additional measure. This little guy just came to their dorm, dropped his shit everywhere because he was…crippled under boxes? Then proceeds to match her energy AND give her candy? Absolutely bizarre. Was this another sleeping med episode?
Almost as if he could read her inner thoughts, Jax locked eye contact, it could’ve seemed genuine if he didn’t have such a devious smirk attached.
“I know you’d love to have me longer but unfortunately I gotta run- Oh, but these boxes are for you, Caine sent me to deliver to the dorm and just so happened you were the first door I saw. It's been fun, anyway” He grabbed a pen and notepad from an overall pocket. “Not that it matters or anything, but here’s my digits” He quickly stuck the note to a box and slid off, waving without looking back. “Call me if you want.”

WIP from "The Buisness Man" fic
“Michael?!”
She swung the front door open, eyes wider than the ocean. It couldn’t be that bad, could it? He glanced down- blood stains and bruises all over. 
Nevermind.
He lifted his head back up to face her, and he was met with his friend’s worried expression. “Michael, what the hell?”
“...Oh this?” he lifted up an arm, “It’s nothing, I just...got into a fight at school.” He lied.
The boy swallowed back tears behind a weak laugh.
She stared at him in disbelief for a second before throwing herself towards his chest, grasping him in a hug so tight that Mike could let go and just float in her arms.
And Charlie held him for moments. 
“I’m gonna kill ‘em,”
He coughed and shifted to look up at her.
“If it was that asshole from fifth period I’ll-”
“No… It wasn’t,” He dropped his face back on her shoulder. “It was just a stupid mistake, and I started it, so...”
He tensed, thinking surely Charlie wouldn’t believe that. But he only felt her chin rest on his head, and a hand brush through his ruffled hair.
“It’s okay, Mike.” she said softly.
Gently so, she pulled back to stand him up- To meet eye contact.
“Dumbass.” she sighed, wiping his cheek with soft fingertips.
Maybe, things could be okay. He would never admit it out loud, but she was and always had been his safe place. He was safe with her. And with a deep inhale and a smooth exhale, Michael finally felt peace.
“Char, ya doin okay? The Carbonara’s almos-”
It was Henry, in an orange apron over his pajamas. And he carried the scent of spices galore, god it smells good.
His jolly smile immediately dropped when he noticed him. Fuck.
“Dad please,” Charlie turned to meet her father, “Can he just stay here tonight, he’s barely able to walk and we can’t just leave him like this,”
They could have just taken him home, and he could have just told them the truth- But somehow, neither of those things followed through.

Every second felt like forever, and every breath sounded like the last.
Michael swallowed down the thick saliva that stuck on the top of his tongue. He tried to look away, to avoid confronting his terrible mistake. As loud as the heart monitors and ventilators were, all Mike could hear was the cries of a petrified child repeated over and over again.
“No! I don’t want to go!’
“No! Please!”
He lifted his chin somberly.
His younger brother was covered up in the depths of hospital sheets, but visible just enough to show the blood stains that blended the stripes with the rest of his tee. His face was completely shielded with bandages. What was under them- a freshly locked away memory. 
It's all my fault.
He hated to admit it. 
And mostly of all he hated that he hated to admit it.
“I’m sorry. I am so fucking sorry Evan.” Michael leaned over the bed, clutching the ripples in Evan’s blanket.
Evan’s body sat very still, gradually lifting and lowering with each breath. He was just asleep now. Thank God.

//WIP Crumb//
(Charlie Emily and Michael Afton hang out and vibe while their dads' are at a work meeting)
Elementary school parking lot on a Saturday, empty. Brighton Rock’s playing on the cassette player Charlie took from Henry’s office; Michaels copy of Sheer Heart Attack inside. No sounds, just the tune and a little thump on the concrete followed by outrageous laughter.
“She shoots she scores!” Michael teased with a lousy impersonation of a referee.
Charlie looked up at him in baffled amusement and rolled her head back. “Lame!” she laughed affectionately.
Mike, letting out a soft laugh, reached out his arm to her, “Round 2?”
“You bet. I won’t give up so easily.” Charlie winked and took his hand, then picked up the board and started towards the peak of the slope. Michael ran back to restart the song before jogging up to meet her. He promised he’d teach her how to skate, and in return she’d teach him guitar basics. Possibly a Queen song if he got lucky.
“Okay, this time, try something like this-” he placed his foot on the deck and slowly took off to let Charlie get a good visual understanding.
A moment later she was on the board, Mike held her hand for a second until she was steady, and the next thing he knew she was soaring across the lots.
“Holy shit, Mike. it worked!” Charlie exclaimed.
“Hell yeah!” Mike called from the side, bouncing his head around to the beat of Brighton Rock.
They hung out until the sun was just a slither in the tree line, cloud watching and deep little conversations. Char even giving a professional demonstration of how to make a leaf-whistle. And of course, they got off on multiple tangents of which animatronic from the diner would win in a fight.

“Attention Pizza Hut dine ins’ and dine outs’ -The huts had its fun but we close this rig by 9. The doors are open sesame at 10am so,” Jan paused, angled her head towards a man in the back booth and winked [he seemed confused, as all the poor customers Jan decided to dally with did] “I better see ya then hm? This Meat lovers ain’t gonna love itself, ya hear!”
“2 slices of supreme and a side salad…Totals’ 1.01, Sir.” Michael finished ringing up the last customer while Jan had her moment, he’d been working here for about 3 months now? It was just him and Jan closing tonight.
He liked it, working meant he got to get out of the house. It meant he had a purpose.
Plus, Henry was allowing him to stay at their house as long as he was employed. That’s fair, Michael thought. He could be out in the streets.
But he was here, in the coziness of a steady and dim lit hospitality service.
“Bye now,” Jan escorted everyone out the front door, a kind expression as she nodded and dismissed each and every person that walked out.
Michael grabbed a rag from the sanitizer bucket as he watched. She was so sweet to people, and it seemed. Real. A real and genuine affection.
He was safe here. Mike let out a slight smirk and walked into the kitchen. Once he was out of view, he turned his Walkman on his Combat Rock cassette and equipped the headphones.
“Alright. Let’s do this shit.” mumbling to himself. He stretched, pulled his red sleeves up, and drew his hair into a bun, his get-ready-to-close routine if you will. 
This is a public service announcement, with guitar~
Know Your Rights, nice. Mike was a big supporter of The Clash, following them since he could speak.
“Hey Sugar, I’m handin’ these dishes off to ya.” Jan noted from behind the counter.
“Thanks, I’ll have them up in a bit.” Mike replied warmly.
As the minutes went by, Michael had scrubbed every dish he could find, and every counter he could reach.
The last thing left on the list was to mop the floors, which Michael considerably enjoyed as long as he could block his thoughts away with a tune. Tonight he mopped to the beat of Paul Simonon’s power speech in Red Angel Dragnet.
Sometimes he’d lose focus on the floor-way and glance up at the windows. Cold and rainy. Usually he’d walk home, but Henry always made sure he got a ride. Mike really appreciated this, William had always told him he was weak if he couldn’t even walk himself home. He grunted at the memory. Thanks a lot, Will. 
“Alright sonny she’s lookin’ good. Is your ride here? I’ll clock ya out if you wanna head off early.” 
“Oh uh, yeah.” Michael noticed Henry’s car parked outside. It looked like Charlie came with him, which made Mike subconsciously grin. She promised to tell him about the bat conservation her friend took her to when he got home from work.
“Wouldn’t wanna forget this,” Jan smirked, followed by a head tilt as she held Mike’s leather jacket out for him.
“Appreciate it, Jan. Have a nice weekend.” Michael opened the door, a chilly breeze flowing through his sinuses. “Later!”

Eddie's never really cared that the other Sirens looked down on him like an outcast his whole life. He didn't fancy them much either. Just because he wasn't inclined to kill casual doodlidads didn't mean he was any less than the rest. He had...hobbies.
Or at least that's what he was completely set on before the age 20- Adulthood was slowly seething into view, and Ed [after long an deep self evaluation] decided it was about time he give it a shot, what's the worst that can happen right?
Oh nothing--except the two dumbasses high from ass to tit right in front of you after you devastatingly fail at the one thing Sirens do best: Failed Siren Song.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eddie, who was already standing awkwardly from his newly shifted lower limbs, stood in disbelief, expression at a complete halt like a thief caught mid-job. This was NOT how the thing's supposed to go...
"rObIn lOok I cAughT a REaL sWoRdFIsH"
"nO DInGuS tHatS a FoRciPigeR LoNgiTrOsTris"
They stopped for a short moment, immediately followed with A burst of laughter.
"pFFt- wHAt tHe hELL iS a fOrCePiGer LoNG..aTrOciOuS"
They went on and on for hours, comment-giggle-comment-giggle. The entire time Eddie was just contemplating HIS escape, a complete backfire. But, every now and then he'd observe the two creatures. He had to admit it was fascinating how strong their connection was- must be nice. He also wondered how long it would take before the song wore off.
It didn't for a long, long time. So, he sat and watched them. Studied their expressions, their gestures, the way they wiggled around in the chairs Ed had them tied them to. It was captivating to say the least. He definitely wouldn't try this again for a while, but he had to admit- he chose the right pirates to start with.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: heyo!! so i haven't really been on top of my game latley with writing so I wanted to make a teeny post about an idea i had with Stoddie to hopefully start off my accounts original content:D
