#like all of canon will happen it's just kinda moved around a lil bit.

[amajorartattack]

Just a quick lil thing that's a part of Sigil's story. It's kinda this nebulous of backstory and present time story, since it's like right as he got captured (which I more or less have categorized as his backstory,) but leads to him actively being in the sibling's clutches and all that in the present and stuff. It's a lil confusing but I'll work to explain it more later.

I've planned for art of their backstory to be worked on first before I start working on art of their present story, but I just wanted to draw this rn cuz I thought it was a neat idea.

#art #digital art #trolls dreamworks #trolls oc #trolls band together #He's really gonna be thrown through the ringer by the way. #Just so y'all know #Their backstory is supposed to be really sad #But they will at some point be happier and show more of their true colors. #Trolls au #sorta #it's more of just a mini divergence from canon #like all of canon will happen it's just kinda moved around a lil bit.

From a very young age, Kaeya held such a fondness for handholding. Whether it was his father clinging tightly to him to make sure he didn’t get lost, Adelinde’s gentle, grounding hand closed over his to comfort him whenever his nerves got the better of him, Crepus’s rough-palmed, firm yet comforting grip as he brought him back home, or, as it was most often of all, Diluc’s warm, yet at times uncomfortably tight hold as he dragged him anywhere, everywhere, determined to always keep Kaeya close and eagerly show him all there was to see, Kaeya treasured the gesture greatly.

Of course, being as shy as he was, initiating it himself was always the harder part. So much so, he would tend to hold pinkies, rather than outright take a person’s hand in his own. Eventually, it would become his most common way to go about the gesture of affection.

#hc; kaeya #//Handholding is one of his favorite ways of affection bc 1) it’s not too overwhelming when it comes to his touch aversion #//The sensation is all focused in one spot; and even then; it’s more grounding than uncomfortable bc of how firm people’s grasp tends to be #//He really took to holding pinkies bc he realized he could ‘test’ people that way #//If it was a bother to them; they wouldn’t blink twice before moving their hand from his hold. so rejection isn’t as BIG; more subtle #//And if they Liked it; they could either accept it as is or make him happier and take firmer hold of his hand #//Once he was more confident; he would go straight to more outright handholding. Klee ofc got that RIGHT from the getgo. Bc she is smol & #liked him from the start. Even if her Pyro energy did make him uncomfortable at first; but he got used to it. for her #//Luc made it easy to go right to it to—the kid would always seem to know when he wanted to hold hands for whatever reason and grabbed hold #before Kae could link pinkies. kae did like the fact that Luc would Pout the few times Kae did link pinkies instead of hold hands #//Pout; & snatch his hand firmly in his like ‘Why did you do that? THIS way’s better’. Love the image of bby!Kae grabbing bby!Luc’s sleeves #but lbr; they deffo held hands a lot as kiddos. Bc we all know just how (canonically) indulging Luc is with whatever Kae wants. Once Luc #//figured him out; it was a Very common sight; seeing Luc tromping around like the proud lil protector he was; & Kae scurrying after him #//Lil subtle delighted gleams in his eye compared to Luc’s more overt confidence and joy. So common a sight; it was no surprise that #Kae was Deffo distressed when Luc inevitably grew out of it. Adjusted; yeah; but the sudden Change was deffo NOT good for his nerves #//Clung to Addie a lot to make up for it; until he heard the maids tittering abt how childish he was being #//He quit that FAST; finding other ways to stave off his nerves and show his affection #//Sometimes when he’s drunk at Angel’s Share; he gets tempted to hold Luc’s hand—an old habit dredged back up bc he wants comfort #//But any sudden moves Luc makes; whether bc he noticed Kae reaching out or not; utterly scare the urge away every time #//He’s made his peace with Luc resenting him; but it still stings that the ONE person he felt closest to is now practically a Chasm away #//Not like he helps any with that; running away or lashing out every time Luc tries to bridge gaps or shows concern #//Sends him into fight or flight mode every time—who’s to say Kae won’t fuck it up and make a Luc regret trying? #//Might as well sabotage it all himself—at least THEN he knows with utmost certainty it will end failure. Whoops veered off topic #//The closer he is to someone; the more likely he ends up toying with their hands a bit—esp if Interested in them #//Likes playing with their fingers; linking; unlinking and slotting them together; tracing lines on their palms #//Cute shit like that. He likes seeing how they fit together; the differences in size and how they feel #//This was all bc I saw a detail from a show pointed out on the Twitter ndnfn. And thought the pinkie thing was SO cute. Anywho #//Hi. Shit happened irl & I am still not 100%. Not saying what bc it’s not a pleasant topic; but know I am ok #//Just a lil tired. But kinda wanna hcs for rn. I had a lil burst of energy earlier today. that was nice. Over a long dead show; no less #//But it helped lift my mood a bit. I still kinda wish I could drink rn tho.

Headcanons.RainbowGang!

The day has finally come! This was initially supposed to be a ColorGang headcanon post (part 3), buuuuut I wanted Purple to be included in it, too, so let's go! (And because there is already two posts of my HCS of the ColorGang lol)

So.. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed sharing it! <3

Lil' note; My headcanons might change over time. Simply because I'm indecisive and I'm still kinda new to the AvA/AvM fandom/series.

Even though I have watched Animation vs Minecraft(original) and Animation vs Animator III and IV when I was really young, I'm still new to the story itself, so my opinions and own interpretations of the characters may change the more I become more used to the characters and the lore. Going depth with the characters and the lore, basically. So take all of this with a grain of salt!

Some may change in the future, other may stay. It's all just a matter of time and the more I go more in depth with the lore and the characters!

Lil' note 2: There are some triggering topics here that you may want to skip. (Such as; Phobias, disorders, possessions, etc.)

You can skip the whole trigger part thing, though! Once you see a gif about the colorgang having a group hug, that's when the trigger part ended.

﹌﹌﹌Triggering Topics.﹌﹌﹌

. . . . . ╰──╮Second is claustrophobic.

・❥・Like- There is no way he isn't atleast a lil' bit claustrophobic after all he went through, right? Villain and/or Antagonists are almost always restraining him in small places, Second must be at least a little claustrophobic.

. . . . . ╰──╮The ColorGang is a little bit paranoid about Purple.

-‘๑’- Like- Don't get them wrong! They love and accept Purple into their lil' group just as they accepted Orange(Second) into their lil' group when they first met, but they can't help but feel a lil' bit paranoid about him.

-‘๑’- They were betrayed twice by him. They know Purple changed but they just- can't help it. They are just afraid of losing each other again.

-‘๑’- Traumatized, paranoid, and having a little bit of PTSD about what happened back then in the Nether. And also alot of trust issues.

-‘๑’- They are willing to forgive and forget, though forgetting what happened back there is proving to be a lot harder than it should be...

. . . . . ╰──╮Red still have some PTSD from all of those possessions.

-‘๑’- He's a little cautious about his surroundings now... Especially towards HeroBrine.

-‘๑’- It's his body, but he can't move nor control whatever action he takes.. Doing things that he would never even dream of doing..

-‘๑’- Yeah- Being possessed wasn't a fun experience. He was able to see what HeroBrine was doing while in control of his body; He had no way of controlling the actions he took, which terrified him and still do just thinking about it. He would never want to relieve it ever again.

﹌﹌﹌Wholesome Topics﹌﹌﹌

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ RainbowGang loves to playfully play around with Second's head.

・❥・Second's head is canonically squishy, so the rest of the gang loves to play around with his squishable head. Like- Squishing his head to become a heart, a square, and etc-!

・❥・Of course, they make sure to not hurt him at all and to see if Second is okay with this; Which- He is! It doesn't hurt him at all; Much to the contrary, it's actually really comfortable (it's like receiving little pats on the head) and it just tickles a little.

・❥・There are times when Blue and Red throw things so that it can go through his head... It doesn't hurt or anything like that, he just feels weird about it.

・❥・Even though he's fine with it and it doesn't hurt him at all, Orange absolutely hates when Sticks use his head for some kind of game. (Example; Basketball). It's just so umconfortable and it makes him feel like he's being used somehow.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Purple (and Reuben) is a honorary member of the ColorGang.

・❥・The ColorGang accepted Purple with open arms and, without him knowing, made him part of their lil' group.

・❥・Now, everytime Purple is included in their shenanigans, they will always call themselves the RainbowGang!

・❥・The moment Purple became their friend, it was also the moment he was officially accepted into the group and now they are the RainbowGang!

・❥・When Purple found out about it... He felt so many emotions at a time- Embarrasment, anger(at himself), guilty(for betraying them twice), insecure(of being worth for their love and forgiving), happiness(he's finally feeling loved. he finally have people who accepts him for who he is!), then guilty again, then anger once again...

・❥・Though, the main ones are definitely anger and guilty. And, because of that, he felt really overwhelmed and just- wasn't ready for it yet. He hasn't forgiven himself yet. He just- Can't. Yet.

・❥・The gang always made sure to let him know that they forgave him, but they understand that he just feels really overwhelmed by it, and made sure to let him know that he's always welcomed with open arms into their lil' group once he's ready.

・❥・That doesn't mean that they stopped inviting Purple to their shenanigans, though- Definitely not! He's always free to join them into their shenanigans whenever he feels like joining!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ From all of them, Purple feels more comfortable around Green.

・❥・Don't get him wrong! He feels very grateful for how the others have accepted him so well into their little group, but Green is just- The first one to try to understand him, the first one to break down the walls he's built over the years, and the first one to be his actual true friend.

・❥・Purple feels comfortable around the others too, but he feels the closest to Green.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ The ColorGang didn't really know that a rainbow existed.

・❥・Can't really blame them. They lived their whole lives being fighting sticks from a site (RYGB), while one of them actually came from drawings (The Second Coming/Orange), and never really left the DeskTop before.

・❥・They always have been curious about Real Life, though. So, on their first days living on Alan's desktop, they almost always watched whatever Alan was doing on his computer, just out of curiosity.

・❥・They found out that a Rainbow existed when Alan was just doing some researches about a rainbow (For color inspiration), and Red quickly compared them to the rainbow, almost looking like a rainbow gang.

・❥・Needless to say, they spent a lot of time just watching Alan doing his things on his computer, while also trying to recreate a Purple StickMan so they could be the RainbowGang!

・❥・...Didn't really work well. So you can imagine how happy they felt when they finally found a Purple StickMan! Like them! :D

・❥・And how sad they felt when they got betrayed.. Twice. By him.

・❥・And how happy they felt once again when Purple officially become their friend once again! ;D

・❥・They are finally a RainbowGang!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ They all have cuddle piles in every chance they get.

・❥・There are times where Purple doesn't feel like he deserves all the affection and love that the ColorGang shows to each other, but they always make sure to shut those thoughts and just pulls him along with their cuddle piles. lol

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ There are also times where Second feels like he doesn't belong to the group.

・❥・I mean.. He's the only hollowhead out of them all. And RYGB knew each other ever since they were first created. He kinda feels.. Out of place. Non-belonging.

・❥・So he can kinda understand how Purple feels. Which is why he makes sure to comfort Purple saying that their friends would never judge them for who they are and will accept them with open arms. And even so, they are in this together.

・❥・And he's right! Obviously lol The gang will always make sure to include them into their shenanigans. They were always a big happy family from the very start and will happily accept Orange and Purple into their lil' family. ❤

﹌﹌﹌Extras!﹌﹌﹌For long; New/changed headcanons!

* ˚ ✦ From Oldest to Youngest; Purple & Yellow & Blue & Green & Red & The Second Coming!

: ̗̀➛ The ColorGang are all 9-10 years old. (Orange being one year younger than them), while Purple is 16 years old.

: ̗̀➛ You can imagine Purple's surprise when he found out that the sticks who saved a whole dimension from being deleted were kids.

: ̗̀➛ Many thoughts came into their head, as well as many emotions overwhelmed him when he found out that they were kids all along.

: ̗̀➛ Surprinsingly, the first thing that he focused on was; "....Am I really that short or they are just that tall?"

: ̗̀➛ Jokes apart, Orange is one of those people who may acts like the 'mother' of the group but is actually one of the youngest.

* ˚ ✦ Out of all of them, Blue and Red are the most emotional ones.

: ̗̀➛ Blue is more of a PeaceMaker, getting easily attached to who he loves, and will be absolutely one of the most distraught whenever he lost one of his friends. He won't hesitate to get violent whenever he feels like his friends are in danger, though he can sometimes act like a pacifist and may hesitate when the situation is not in their favor. inspired by this analysis of Blue's character!

: ̗̀➛ While Red is more younger, vulnerable and impulsive. He got a childlike mind, pretty aggressive, and one of the strongest in the group. But he can also get pretty impulsive out of good-intentions and can end up getting them to pretty dangerous situations. He's always good-intentioned, but there are many times where he won't think twice before doing.

* ˚ ✦ They all loves to prank each other.

: ̗̀➛ They can sometimes get carried away with their pranks, though... They always make up in the end!

: ̗̀➛ Purple was a lil' confused at first, but he eventually got the hang of it and, all of sudden, he become the prankster of the group. lol xD

* ˚ ✦ Green didn't taught only Orange how to sing - even though it didn't really work well.. xD - , he taught the others how to sing, too! With a lil' help from Purple, of course.

: ̗̀➛ Purple and Green tried many times to teach Orange how to sing, but then they finally concluded that Orange is a lost case. ;')

: ̗̀➛ But! They managed to teach the others how to sing, though!

: ̗̀➛ Red is a quick learner, so it wasn't too difficult to teach him how to sing. They all had a lot of fun while singing together.

: ̗̀➛ While with Yellow, surprisingly it was harder to teach him, but he got the hang of it eventually. After many failed attempts on trying to teach him how to sing, that is... But atleast it wasn't as bad as it was with Orange. ;'D

: ̗̀➛ Blue was a lil' more difficult, but it wasn't that hard, either. - Green suspects Blue used potions to learn how to sing quicker, though... And he was definitely right.

: ̗̀➛ So now they all kinda have a band together with Green and Purple as the main singers.

: ̗̀➛ Second isn't excluded in this, though! He can't sing like the others, but he can play a electric guitar pretty good. So, basically; He's the main Guitarist.

: ̗̀➛ Alan is the audience. xD

Welp! I think that's it..? Pretty sure there is alot more, but it's already midnight in my place (almost 1 am), so... (why do I always write these at midnight?? lmao)

Cya u all in my next blog! <3

[antisociallilbrat]

i would like to hear about the history of stenbrough as a ship bc as someone who left the fandom after like two months in 2017 (<- book fan curse) i am INVESTED

Say no more *cracks knuckles*

Disclaimer: Please do not take everything I say as fact, this is just my interpretation of the ship's history through out this fandom from my perspective

Okay so let's start at the very release of the 2017 movie. There were four ships out the gate and they may surprise some people, but they were Reddie (which would quickly become the main ship runner), Bichie, and Stanlon. Billverly was a strong contender but it was quickly overshadowed by Benverly once Movie fans were made aware by Book fans that they were endgame in canon. Notice how I didn't mention Stenbrough?

I'm not saying people didn't ship it after the movie came out but it couldn't compete with Bichie or Stanlon in those first few crucial weeks. Stanlon eventually died down the level of popularity that Stenbrough was at during this time but Bichie still ran strong for a good while until eventually losing popularity the more popular Reddie got. Which brings us right into the the It fandom of early 2018.

So if Bichie was losing popularity, what do we do with Bill? Who does he smooch? Oh what about Stan? They had some romantic chemistry right? - A reddie fic writer (probably)

Stenbrough really got its popularity from being a background ship for reddie fics. I can't say why Reddie writers choose this ship more over Stanlon, maybe they actually just shipped them or maybe it had something to do with wanting to just write the core four? This is also around the time the *bad* trend came about of just disregarding Mike, Bev, and Ben, or giving them like two lines- or their tropes. Ya know, Mike the only single Loser, Ben just being Bev's Bf, and Bev being a fangirl for a core four pair.

Anyways- I need to mention this even though it makes me uncomfortable bc it was such a dark time in the It fandom that Ik we all try to forget but we can't deny it happened. Remember fack? Which did fuel the reddie ship for a couple of weirdos? Same was happening- on a smaller scale- with Jyatt. Plz someone I am literally grimacing I hate this so much. Some weirdos went "Jaeden and Wyatt are best friends in irl so now i'm going to ship them" which boiled over into Stenbrough.

OKAY MOVING ON into something so much nicer, the Stenbrough renaissance 🥰🥰

From like mid 2018 to 2019 there were so many good Stenbrough fics. Stenbrough had become popular enough to stand on its own as a ship. And I'm not saying that good fics that were solely stenbrough based weren't coming out before this, this was just when we saw a big boom of them. Also at this point in the fandom, especially late 2018 to early 2019, the fandom had died down a little. I actually took a bit of a break from the it fandom during this period. But bc the fandom had died down during those few months, other ships had some room to breathe besides Reddie, one's like Bichie and Steddie, Stanverly, Poly Losers, but mainly Stenbrough. I would dare say at this point some shippers were Reddied out (they didn't know what was coming with that 2019 movie, the resurgence) so Stenbrough was honestly, very popular.

Now let's get to the 2019 movie. Reddie once again, took its place right back on top, there was a resurgence in the It fandom. I- foolishly- went into the 2019 movie hoping to see more Bichie content that would fuel my headcannons bc I was not yet a stenbrough shipper. Still didn't change after the 2019 movie.

So the ships this time around concerning Bill and Stan were a lil different. Stanpat had more of a bearing- albeit usually always as a background ship- but Hanbrough became extremely popular. Kind of a switch from the 2017 movie with Stanlon. So honestly while Stenbrough did grow after this movie, I would argue that growth was kinda stunted by Hanbrough- which I can't say I'm mad about, that's an awesome ship as well.

And yeah Stenbrough ship held on for a while after the 2019 movie and we were still getting good fics and works for it, but I think the reason it held on for so long was because Idk- a major world event happened or something and people suddenly had more free time. Am I saying covid affect the It fandom? Abso-fucking-lutely. That's when i started writing fanfic for Stenbrough.

When did I start shipping Stenbrough? It was a mixture of being home during the pandemic and reading fics from the Stenbrough renaissance. Whoops.

Which just brings us to now bc from late 2020 to now in 2023 it's pretty much the same. Stenbrough is technically a dead ship. People still enjoy it and good fics still get written for it, but it doesn't even brush the height of it's once popularity and it never will again. Kinda depressing but I don't let it bother me too much. I'm still going to be the fool who pushes out content for it 🤷🏻

#thank you anon for encouraging my nonsense #plz anyone add to this or correct me if you have a different opinion #also anon you've peaked my curiosity the book fan curse #sam answers asks #it 2017 #it 2019 #stenbrough #bill denbrough #richie tozier #eddie kaspbrack #mike hanlon #stanley uris #ben hanscom

Hello, sorry for the all questions but I enjoy hearing your feedback on these. One how much of Ashura influence/legacy will play in your story? My other question is that I’m almost positive that you’ll have Naruto and Sakura have a conversation about what happened in canon story (Land of iron etc), but will your writing discuss the trauma that Naruto had from his childhood? Like I believe Naruto was always so loud because he hated the silence of his home. I’m positive that Sakura would make it a point to talk Naruto about his childhood given that in your story already has her thinking about the mental effects of ‘Madara’s illusion he casted on the world.

Hey there! Sorry for getting so late back to ya, I've been caught-up with behind the scenes plotting of the next manga chapters.

But now that I have a lil' bit of free time, here I am.

Now, to get to the point... There will be some degree of Ashura involvement in my story. I went a bit into more depths about some dynamics between the family & some other elements that connect to Naruto's story, but that's all I'm going to say about it without being too spoily.

As for discussion regarding the trauma Naruto had from his childhood, well, what I have in mind is a little bit more broader than that element. If you've read through the tidbits I've shared here and there, I wanna go a bit separate than what canon did & build an entire system around the infinite tsukuyomi plotline.

But that system will definitely include that particular element of Naruto's childhood.

Back in the day we often talked about Naruto's trauma and how that played in his life, for example like in Pein arc when Sakura hugs him and he's shocked and just freezes.

It's only a normal reaction of his given that he's never truly received affection and he doesn't even know how to react.

The only time he receives affection and reacts to it is when Kushina tells him she loves him. Then, and only then, he starts opening up, so much so that when later his father asks him if Sakura is his girlfriend, he actually stops for a second, thinks about it and he's like "well, yeah, she did confess, so she kinda is".

Many people probably just got past it without realizing the implications of such move, because it was played behind a comedic relief effect to make the Sakura/Kushina comparison, but if we take a look back at the Naruto at the beginninig of Shippuden that cannot even accept Sakura shedding a tear for him, to the one who now accepts her love confession, there's a big and stark difference.

So yeah, I will treat subjects like these. Especially for Naruto, because power-scale wise, he achieved everything that there is to achieve and honestly, on that side I don't know what more I can do with him that hasn't been done.

With him I'm taking a more different approach, thus.

Sakura's the one who gets the power-scaling (and others) focus.

Hope this helps. :)

31, 37, and 15 for Sun, 42 for Fleabag and 24 for Dusty

pretty please 🥺

thank youuuuuuuuu <3 these were fun

🔥 Fallout OC Asks! 🔥

Sun

31. What is their goal in life? What impact would they like to leave when they’re gone?

Survive the situation <3 Sun knows that he's meant to be Papa's heir and his goal should be to lead the Khans to triumph but as far as he's concerned his dad has a handle on that and he is going to stay in the background thank you very much. He just wants to get through the day with as few deaths and threats of war as humanly possible in Westside and without anybody asking him if he knows where Papa Khan's son is. Actually no that last bit is fine because he'll just point them in a random direction but yknow what I mean

37. What is the worst injury they have experienced?

Most certainly getting his finger shot off by a sniper. Getting shot hurt, running home with exposed bone hurt, the Khans trying to perform first aid on him hurt, and the Followers performing surgery on it later hurt, the healing process hurt, moving his other fingers hurt, and even the finger that wasn't there anymore hurt. It bothered him for a long time after it happened and even 10 years later he gets phantom pains, especially at night. It's also the worst injury for him emotionally because he was 20 years old and his overconfident "nothing can hurt me" attitude was shattered in an instant and it all changed the trajectory of his life. Plus he feels responsible for the most disastrous war the Khans ever got into against Mr House because he thinks Papa wouldn't have started it if his son hadn't been shot. He's fine tho <3

15. What is their proudest moment / accomplishment?

Honestly his work in Westside he is quietly pretty proud of. In my canon Sun established the trade deals between the Khans and the Fiends and Westside. While he likes some of the Fiends he definitely doesn't like dealing with their leadership and sometimes thinks maybe the deal he got with them was a bad idea. However with Westside he's very happy to be part of their community, he feels like he's actually making a difference and feels valued. Not that he isn't in the Khans but its just different coming from people who are strangers.

Fleabag

42. What is their favorite wasteland creature?

This is a tough one because Fleabag obviously loves dogs like dogs are their life and their everything but also.............. Fleabag has always wanted to one day train a Nightstalker (and has been very unsuccessful so far)

Dusty Colter

24. Do they have a romantic partner or partners?

Dusty's ex is Red Jaxson and I've kinda passed him around a lil with regards to who I want to pair him up with. I did pair him with Jessup for a while but now I've made Red and Jessup related to each other (Red is Jessup's great great grandfather) it kinda feels weird to me now. I think Dusty and Sun could have some funny chemistry (both charismatic, Dusty can't die and Sun hates death, Dusty also hunted Sun for a little while) but at current time he's probably having some flings but not actually committed to one specific person <3

[the-darkness-does-not-bargain]

lmao that’s making me picture fallenhalo playing minecraft and everytime they hole up in a cave to wait for morning ava’s like “aw doesn’t this remind you of when we first met 🥰” “back when we hated each other and only tolerated each other because it was mutually beneficial? yes” “I didn’t hate you! also you tried to kill me, i wouldn’t call that tolerating” “I wasn’t trying to kill you, because if i was you’d be long dead. I just stabbed you a few times” *cue more ava & lilith flirting via bickering and beatrice in the corner totally not rolling her eyes, half in exasperation, half in a bit of jealousy that she’s in denial about, doing her own thing in minecraft because ava & lilith keep dying*

also ava & lilith are gonna notice beatrice being all grumpy wolf in the corner in a few seconds and beatrice is gonna regret even feeling exasperated because ava & lilith are gonna flirt w and fluster her to death and yes this is far too frequent thing that happens for beatrice’s poor easily overwhelmed gay heart

thinking ava had just accepted diego’s loss after trying to find him (it’s ambiguous about whether he8s dead or not but regardless ava hasn’t found him and she won’t ever for a long long time) so hence her moping around in a cave when lilith finds the cave

ava’s just trying to distract herself and bring a sense of normalcy she’s lacking atm and she ups the “100% purely only goofy guy” mode up to a thousand

meanwhile lilith is already inherently distrustful of ava given she seems to be almost completely human save for her immortality and those type of immortals are often super shady because most of em did horrendous shit to get and/or keep their immortality, esp since she has personal experience w related stuff, which plays a big part into how lilith became a vampire, and lilith’s whole general, lilithness, so they get off the wrong foot ag least

‘

it’s a lot better than in canon probably given while their dislike of each other kinda spans over a few years, (whitcg to them was super short period of time) they probably don’t really involve any pther people other than themselves, at least not when there’s a risk of them (other people) getting seriously hurt, and like lilith said, they genuinely weren’t trying to kill each other, even when their dislike was at the highest esp because they could help each other + they wanted the company

either they probably stay in the same vicinity of each other (same country) but don’t spend time w each other, except/or for when their paths grow and they begin to like each other more, they stay togeyher lonher, but are in denial about it

regardless, probably lilith almost dies ala s1, and that’s when they realize that oh hey, they’d kinda be more than a bit devastated if the other died actually, which is when they begin sticking together almost all the time and/or acknowledging how much they mean to the other more

re: ava’s immorality origin, i’m just going schrodinger’s origin w it tbh, any and all origins are open and close at the same time

have the mental image of Beatrice being such a lil grumpy wolf when lilith and/or ava haven’t been hanging out enough w bea, esp (esp esp pre relationship) if it’s because they’re preoccupied w each other or something and later on when she’s less repressed and more secure in her relationship w lilith & aba (platonic and otherwise) she’s probably lowkey a lil shit about it. gets her work and plops her whole wolf self down onto ava or lilith’s lap and when they’re like ‘can i move” beatrice is like “i can’t because i’m busy w my work rn and taking the time to move would distract me from it” Or something like that

vv black cat in the body of a wolf energy

ava absolutely buys her clothes based on what bat lilith will like to snuggle in or cling to the most, and later on wolf beatrice as well

and also just in general bc beatrice & lilith are very sensitive sensory wise (i am shoving autistic beatrice & lilith in because they both have sm vibes esp lilith who’s whole arc could be vv easily read as a bit of a metaphor for it)

lilith when she still dislikes beatrice like:

Flirting over minecraft, I'm dying lmao. And yes, Ava and Lil have had thousands of years to perfect their special brand of "being a little shit" antics, usually for use on each other, but now that Bea is available? Prime target. Pray for her.

Yes, I would expect that she started living in the cave possibly because that's where she met Diego too. So she was holding out hope that he would come back, only to get Lilith instead (for the best, of course). I've been thinking more about werewolves in this setting and how they came to exist, and I think maaayyybe whatever is going on with Ava is also linked to or is even the source of werewolves (the idea is simmering, I'm playing around with Ava possibly being responsible for turning Diego into the first werewolf by accident, through magical nonsense). Either way, yes she's devastated and trying to distract herself in any way she can, meaning Lilith's arrival helped her on multiple fronts.

If Lilith knew about immortals beforehand or maybe just legends of them, then she would be distrustful at the start, especially when Ava refuses to give her a straight answer on how she came to be immortal. But necessity and strange bedfellows and etc. etc. Ava helps Lilith survive until she can safely leave the cave and then Ava... just sort of follows her, to Lilith's annoyance and dismay. She keeps her distance for awhile, but then gradually gets closer until maybe Lilith has a dangerous moment where she's really hurt or about to burn in the sun and Ava rescues her. They aren't planning their honeymoon anytime soon but they recognize that they are better off with each other than alone.

When Beatrice gets her paws under her, she'll return their antics with her own. Her biggest hits include laying her 300-lb. furry self in front of the door whenever the other two try to leave, forcing Lilith to pick her up (strategic cuddling) and pinning one or both of them under her and then falling asleep (strategic napping).

That graphic put a stitch in my side, bat!Lilith has me dying! It's what she deserves <3!

i have a lot of AUs that make zero sense when you look at canon, and tbh thats quite the point of them!!

so anyways we all know that martin has been working at the archives since he was 18, right? 10 years of gertrude robinson shenanigans that he probs never saw cuz he was in the library. yknow who else was around? gerard keay

oh thats right baby. its gerrymartin time.

this shit gets long but y'all they mean so much to me srsly

imagine. bby martin, 18, who very much doesnt give a shit abt anything tbh, especially not himself, climbs atop a local library he likes (which is illegal but he doesnt care, hes chilling alright), working other jobs alongside the institute to pay for his mum's care and himself, stressed af, also still very much a teenager just trying his best, very unwell and it shows (but thats good cuz at least nobody questions his age too much)

also imagine. gerry coming up to the library, and very much seeing a?? person??? on top of it??? and goes "wtf" and climbs it, this somehow being the most interesting thing to happen despite all the shit from his mum, young but still a few years older than marto boy (4 years is my personal hc, so he's 22)

gerry sees martin and thinks "goddamn, its mental illness innit", notices martin is petting. a falcon?? what?? like its normal, and just kinda. strucks up conversation cuz martin looks very much like shit. also he's got a big bird in his lap (this is my crack hc that martin is like a disney princess)

martin, bless him, is very depressed and also tired and also doesnt have the energy to even smile so he just blankly looks at gerry and goes "oh what the hell, sure, he's hot why not" and proceeds to get a tiny wittle crush on gerry for the few months they meet in the library

gerry is fond of martin but thats it, doesnt want attachments, not with this lifestyle, not with his mother being a fucking greedy motherfucker, besides it only causes trouble. and he's not fooled, he knows martin is a bby. he hopes he gets better, cuz hes a nice kid

then gerry needs to deal wish some entities shit, he a busy boy as well, and he'll be away a little bit. he's trying to be more independent and find his own cases and shit without his mom, now that he knows her intentions and doesnt want her legacy. he wants his own. and sadly that means leaving martin alone for a little while

martin is very fucking upset but doesnt show it cause. well. he knows its not fair. he's grown to like gerry a lil bit and he's the only friend he's got. and now he's gonna be gone.

gerry wishes him good luck and tells him "take care of yourself yeah? if not for you, then for me." and that alone fills martin with some determination to actually get better. he doesnt know when gerry will be back, so he'll just. get better. he'll try. for gerry.

truly what happens is that he gets two years older and just a lot more accepting of what he's living in, so he jsut naturally gets better just by living basically the same way. he tries to take walks more tho, and starts writing again, cuz why not, gets into witchcraft again cuz he missed it (also a hc of mine, kinda crack, kinda serious), starts making tea for himself and then his coworkers

by 20, almost 21, he's still unwell per say, he's still depressed, but at least he's trying to do things he likes. thats what counts, hes trying. and he likes that. also he got a bit taller. and bigger, one of his jobs is kinda physically taxing so it just happens naturally

so when gerry comes back and sees martin smile at him, which never fucking happened before, also hes taller. and has muscle on his arms. and more freckles, look at that wow "i like men" basically

its kinda like, love at second sight, and gerry doesnt know how he feels abt it, so he procrastinates dealing with those feelings and just befriends martin all over again.

martin, for his part, had moved on from gerry a lil bit, but now the crush is back at full force, gerry looks cool, has new piercings, new tattoos?? his hair is still horribly dyed and he bullies gerry for it and this is when gerry finds out martin is a bit of a bitch, and also mean, and its cute

i'll talk more about what happens in a reblog or smth this is long af but yh <3<3<3<3 them

Flufftober Day 11: Poetry, Music, Art, and Craft

Here’s today’s snippet for Flufftober. Today’s prompt is: Poetry, Music, Art, and Craft and is form @flufftober’s prompt list.

I’m using the characters from Syndicate. These scenes are non-canon and written simply to practice with lighter content. Let me know if you want to be tagged in future responses for this event!

I feel like this is a lil less pure fluff but it's still cute. I only really followed "craft", hope that's fine. To non-followers: This incorporates the interaction between Raymond and Terran's kinda unique powers, but what they can do is fairly obvious I think.

--

Raymond's POV

When I got back to my room after my final, all I wanted to do was to not think about it, other finals, or any of the other things that could stress me out. It was time for a break. So I put on some tea, tuned in to my favorite radio station, and dug some yarn and knitting needles out of a drawer. I sat on the loveseat, leaned onthe arm, with my tea next to me, and cast on.

I was knitting and purling to the backbeat of the music when there was a knock on the door. I finished my stitch and went over to the door, peeking through the peephole.

Terran.

I thought for a minute. It wasn’t that I didn’t like having Terran around or I want to avoid him. But I’d just been getting into a relaxing afternoon, and Terran was very bad at relaxing, meaning that my afternoon of tea and yarn was probably over.

There wasn’t much I could do to avoid it, though. Terran would have heard me stand and walk to the door. There was music playing. It wasn’t like I could pretend not to be there. And I didn’t want to tell him to leave.

So I opened the door. “Hey.”

“Hey. Sorry— are you busy?”

I felt myself relax a bit. Not long ago, he would have barreled in, not asked if I was busy, gone right to whatever he needed or wanted to argue with me about.

“Not really. What’s going on?” Please, nothing too stressful.

“Nothing.” He didn’t meet my eye. “I was hoping I could hang out here for a little while.”

That was a relief. I swung the door open. “Sure, come on in.”

As he came in, I tried to peek into his head— not even a full mind read, just tried to pick up on emotions— Mika called it an empathy read. I hit stone. The focus wall that was up far too often. But under it, almost like a distant vibration, I sensed it was pushing down something else.

“You were knitting,” he said, spotting it on the loveseat. He picked it up (please, don’t let any stitches slip off!) gently, then set it back own and sat next to it.

“Are you okay?” He didn’t come over without reason often. I shut the door.

“Fine.”

I pulled the curtains closed, even though the natural light had been really nice. He relaxed when I did, when we were shut off from the outside world.

He wasn’t fine, though. That distant vibration didn’t mean excitement. “Something happen?”

He leaned his head back, pressing it against the wall. “Not really.”

“Should you drop focus?” He was usually more forthcoming when not under the spell.

He shook his head.

“You sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure,” he snapped, and his head raised again, and this was why I didn’t like that spell. I stared at my feet. At least he noticed now, though, and didn’t get more upset, because his voice softened and he explained further. “I’m only fine because of focus. It keeps me from falling apart, okay? I don’t want to fall apart.”

I nodded. Something had happened. Or at least, he wasn’t okay, that anxiety I’d felt was worse than his normal levels.

He sighed. “I’m sorry. You don’t like that spell. I’ll go somewhere else if you want. I— I don’t want to drop it, but focusing at home was making it worse.”

“You don’t have to go,” I said. I moved my knitting aside to sit next to him, ran my hand down his arm. It made sense, home for him was a place of trauma, of needing to outsmart everyone, of survival. It was even good to hear that he’d got to me to get away from that. A reminder that he did feel safe with me, even if that didn’t mean dropping the spell. "Do you need something to focus on, then?” I had a feeling that even here his mind was still planning, on guard.

He met my eyes, and smiled slightly, and it made my heart stop for a moment. He so often looked serious, and his smiles, even when they were a bit pained like this, felt like something special. And this one was for me. “That might help.”

My face was getting hot and I ducked my head away quickly. I picked up the knitting again— perfect solution. “Here. I’ll teach you.”

He raised an eyebrow.

“Come on, learning a new skill is a good way to direct that focus,” I said. I held out the needles in front of me. “You stick this in here, then wrap the yarn around, then…” I demonstrated a knit stitch.

“Can you really imagine me knitting?”

I hadn’t considered it, but the thought of Terran knitting immediately became the cutest, hottest thing ever in my head. I had to. I couldn’t stop grinning now, but I held out a needle to him. “Just try it.”

“Alright, fine,” he gave in.

I showed him how to drape the yarn over his pinky and index finger, then demonstrated the knit stitch again. He tried it, dropping the stitch by accident. I took it back to recover it. “That’s okay, it happens,” I said.

He tried again, and a stitch or two later, I watched him catch on. Stitches formed. It was so tight that the yarn squeaked when coming off the hook, but still, he was getting it.

“You can do one less loop around the pinky and it’ll be looser,” I suggested, but still his stitches turned out tiny. I could tell it was working, though, the task has engaged his focus and he seemed less anxious. When he got to the end, I explained that he would now be doing the back of it and how to do a purl, how it was just a backwards knit. That he caught on to quickly, and before long, had another row.

I leaned my head on his shoulder, partially just to see better. I pointed out how the knit stitches looked like Vs and the purls like lines, but as he picked it up and got into the rhythm I found myself just watching it. It was hypnotizing in a way that knitting myself never had been, along with the pulsing of his mind as it worked almost washing over me. I liked how close he let me get, wondered if he even really noticed.

Somehow, this was even more relaxing than it had been before he arrived.

Even my WIPs list is a WIP... send help

I’m only now just realising how many WIPs/half-baked ideas I have floating around in my fics folder on my laptop and I really really want to get to them... you know what? I’m going to give you all a list and talk a little about them in the hopes that it’ll a) get me excited about some of them and I’ll finish it faster, or b) you guys are interested about them and I’ll probably feel more confident in my writing and write some more... and hopefully I’ll stop adding ideas to it because I’m focusing on the existing ones lol. Also I’ve been tagged a short while back for a WIPs ask game but I think I did it the last time it circulated before this one so I’ll just do it like this instead lol. 

Levi x Reader WIPs (one-shots and mostly SFW unless specified otherwise) 

The Harbinger’s Premonition - a canonverse multichap fic where Reader is the grim reaper who collects the souls of dead Eldians and guides them to Paths, and Levi is the only person who’s ever been able to see them. Currently working on chapter 4 (very verryyyy slowlyyyyy) 

Role reversal AU (captain Reader and civilian teashop owner Levi) (this one is well underway!) 

Flatmates AU (in which Levi and Reader are in the same flat for uni accommodation - I’ve got a fair bit done for that one too) 

Florist!Levi - I’ve got several hundred words written from a while ago, and I kinda miss writing lil grumpy florist/plant dad so I kinda want to pick this one up again. 

Masseuse!Reader - the Scout veterans minus Levi have a weekly tradition to go to a massage parlour because they’re all stressed out as heck and Hange somehow convinces Levi to go to one. And you’re the pretty masseuse that got assigned to him for his appointment 👀 (this is more of a concept than an actual plot but I do want to write this!!) 

Airport and author AU - okay so I’ve written like 500 words for this one and the document hasn’t been touched in months idk if I want to pick this one back up? The idea is cute but I just have bad writers block when it comes to that one for some reason 

I also had ideas for six pieces that I was going to write for this year’s Kinktober, which obviously did not happen as I was moving back to uni and things were a little full on then. I definitely plan on writing these out but the question is when lol 

... old requests from like months ago that i haven’t gotten around to/havent been inspired to write im sorry to those who requested those I will get around to those one day I swear 😂

Other WIPs

I’ve mentioned a few times on this blog that I want to get around to writing a Levi x OC fic set in canonverse, as sort of a canon rewrite. Tentative name ‘The Creed of the Godless’. It’s still very much in the early planning stages and has been for months because I’m a perfectionist and don’t want to start writing until I have every little detail planned and plotted lol. I have talked about it in this post and there’s a little more info you can find in my masterlist somewhere. 

Not a WIP but I’ve been thinking about writing Furlan x Reader (listen I know the point of the No Regrets manga was not to drool at lines on paper but... I am very much drooling at lines on paper. Furlan is so goddamn fine in the manga and I need to write for him.) 

(I also have a multi-chapter fic that I kinda want to drop though because I’ve run out of steam for it and nobody’s reading it anyway :/ it’s not Character x Character/Reader/OC or anything like that though, so I knew the reception would be lower but to be honest motivation to write it has not really been there so idk. Might orphan it. Feel kind of guilty because I know there were a few select people that were interested but I just... don’t really want to continue with it any more.)

heyheyhey!! i'm baaaack!! this one mayyy focus on some tiny Joel, but it still has tiny Bill around it too- :> So, since its canon that Joel is a lil deaf in one ear, sometimes it's hard for baby Joel to hear sometimes, and it gets him a lil frustrated!! and just huffs and puffs, cuz its so difficult to hear and stuffs!! and he wants to hear whats going on!! And tiny Bill is watchin as his big bro has a bit of a fit from him trying to hear some old record that Frank put on, and he said it was a good song too!! but he can't hear!!! >:( So, Bill havin a lil knowledge with ASL (probably self taught before Frank came along, just in case that he wouldn't be able to talk in some situations that had to do with another person, and maybe an infected.), and that he remembers the tiiiiiny tiniest bit of it, he just goes and tries to help with Joel's problem!! Bill shuffles over to his big bro, lightly tapping him on the shoulder. Joel just looks at him with a big ol grumpy frown, but Bill just ignores that and moves on XD and he starts to slowly show Joel slow, lil hand signs!! (it probably translates to 'hello' or 'greetings' :>) and Joel just kinda watchies along, until Bill is just like 'mmm!! mm! >:(' and taps Joel's hands and starts to sign again.

And Joel is like 'ooooh' and starts to slowly follow along, getting a lil confused at some parts, but baby Billy helps him!! just helpin by putting his hands in the right place and such :D and Joel finally gets it!! (after 30 minutes XDDDD) and just starts to sign it everywhere!! one to Billy, one to the front door, one to the couch and one to his cars XDD

And Frank just sees all this cuteness happen, cooing lots n lots from how sweet his boy's are, and just goes over to them (he may have learnt a lot a while back when he was with a few other people for the first couple of years of the pandemic hitting and then he was left alone later on :( ) and just smiles when Joel does it, and does it back to him!! And Joel and Bill are both super duper shocked!! just starin at Frankie, while he gives a lil chuckle and a kiss on each boy's forehead before just going on the do the sign again, and both Bill and Joel do it back and repeat!! :D

And now, Joel has a new word he can teach to Tess and Ellie ;w; (and big Bill and Frank may help with a few other simple signs with tiny Joel, just so he can communicate when he's not feeling up to talking or he's just a lil frustrated!!)

!!!!!!! Aaaaaa oh my goodness yes😭💖

Tiny Joel sorta forgets he can turn his head to hear better but, then that means he'd have to move his toyssss which is soooo much work for a lil guy xD

So he just pouts with his muffled hearing until his lil bro comes up and starts moving his hands around- Joel's a bit confused, thinking Billy is just, doing something cute until he figures it out and tries to copy n' learn too!!♡

Frank definitely finds it adorable and so kind of Bill to try and help Joely find a way to communicate that doesn't require hearing!♡

K: Hey since we've ran into each other.

K: Would you 4 be willing to do rap battle with me?

W: Well

B: I dunno about that...

R: Oh come on guys! They're fans of ours!

R: Besides,this day's been booooriiiing! All we've been doing is walking around all day!

Y: Hmmm...she is right.

Y: Maybe a rap battle would liven things up a little!

W: Well I AM musically inclined

B: Ehhh...Alright you've convinced me.

//from 5.12.23

hey.... im going a lil cray cray over lf x a5 crossover au.. (also 8:11 bcz im a loser for oc x canon :3)(still coping over this stomache) if i dont send smth in 5 minutes shoot me im going too cray cray/j

lf already kind of has ties to a5 since the entities still being alive and just kinda moving around but not really - maybe ill age up adam and oliver to use as background characters but whos knowss

not canon or anything just a silly little thought but erm. what if all 3 were connected via religion 😁 emilio, natalia, charlotte and isabella from lf already have religious backgrounds, 8:11 practically revolves around religion and a5 entities pretending to be angels could wreck some havoc on the damned basilica teehee,,, since im too silly with char.ai most of the characters mentioned already interacted w/ 8:11 bots to kinda get an idea of how everything would play out even if it was ooc... younger emilio and amelia def actually confided in francis while everyone else was at least a bit suspicious (minus isabella but uhmmm. lore reasons) idk abt the entities since i havent rlly worked on anything but their designs but maybe ill give them different abilities and only one of them knows francis' true intentions:3c

OH YEAH idk if ill ever tell him abt it but maybee i could throw in adams ocs too since bros absolutely batshit insane over 8:11 rn. i have screenshots of him being insanely gay over a french guy btw if anyone wanted to see/j ANYWAY ehheheee maybe felix and samuel knew the martin kids at some point :33 bunch of religiously traumatized kids meeting, what could happen??? (felix and emilio both stabbed their siblings at skme point 💀) ANYWAYS i think sam and samuel would get along not just because uhh similar names but idk since were kinda split between making sam a bitch or actually nice... oh and i never drew sam or amelia properly yet whoops a5 exploded my mind

btw abt the entity mfs id like to think most of them usually stay in human forms except for atlas whos kinda the socially awkward one whod rather stay as an animal so no one tries to talk to him lmfao

but hes also extra so anyone at the basilica sees a fucking bear with antlers and the fur pattern of a deer and gets jumpscared (they all get used to it later and only vistors get jumpscared) OH AND ABT THE OC X CANON STUFF. not rlly shipping i just dk what else to call it but tee hee maybe isabella and vittorino have mad beef because her dad died at the basilica not soon after vitto joined so shes mad sus 😁😁 but only to be a bitch bcz she finds him utterly disgusting. her cousin allen kills him bcz he kinda was suffering anyway and she actually helped plan it loll

everytime girl comes across the stupid hoe they always glare at each other or get in a fight... usually verbal bcz natalia would go rabid if vitto tried to hit bella ykyk

oh and since im trying to align the stories together a bunch of ages r gonna have to change... idk if emilio or oliver is gonna be the older one but there is no way in hell a priest is younger than someone still in school... but then again overthinker wont stop comparing emmy to felix so ion wanna make him too close to blondies age but then again again felix is like 50 now... ill probably make emmy 36 and amelia 41 ig. klaus has too many white hairs to only be 40 anyway/hj but then adams still older than klaus.... i mean ig i could just use the excuse that he dyes his hair since he already has highlights

this is a whole mess uhm.

im unoriginal asf so emilio and jericho can bond over being people pleasers and cupioromantic but their first and only ever crush was abusive 😁😁 (<- definitely not projecting) (i lied. jericho only ever gets with elio bcz of that one time on valentines day irl) (im normal i swear)

OH WHILE IM TALKUNG ABT EMILIO. BEFORE I FORGET

bro went from snarky rude ass hoe to the most pathetic bird known to man for silliness reasons/hj

bros insanely mentally unstable, has chronic pain and heart problems, trust problems and definitely either a drinking or smoking problem. hell he can even jack both of them if he wants/j uhm. but i decided to make him less of a mary sue with all the language stuff n shit. idk if i ever mentioned it but who cares its my channel grr/j anyways instead lf the grocery list of languages he can speak, he can only speak english, greek, and belarusian 👍 also asl but idk if youd count that as smth he can speak

still torturing his pathetic ahh but anywayss abt that one tobias/future emilio art. the snake he has was originally gonna be named mobius for his symbolism stuff (and a hi3 ref/silly) but maybee i might rename the snake fang or michael as in adams late husband because uhmmm. what if adam was like a father figure to him when they met and he at some point got him a snake 👍👍 (he wouldve gotten a rabbit but uhm. vitto symbolism. and bro is traumatized from the vittorino ais..)

that is all for neow bcz i need to go take medicine 😭

Banana Bread

Pairing: Bucky Barnes x female reader

Summary: You get to know your neighbor across the hall, James.

Ch 1 of the Neighbors Series | Masterlist | Prologue | Ch. 2

Word Count: 3.0k

Warnings: angst, mild swearing, therapy, Bucky’s past, we’re diving in headfirst in this one, maybe anxiety? that’s probably fair, I probably missed things but I tried, Im sorry

AN: eeee this story is so many years in the making, but now it actually follows canon and isn’t just a weird fever dream 😂 This first part is set before tfatws, I’ve gotta build their story up a bit first 😉 I’ll probably elaborate on some of their cute lil moments from before this but I kinda wanted to get the ball rolling, lol.

He didn’t know how it had happened, how he’d gotten so comfortable around you, how he’d let you in. At first, everything was quiet, Bucky was adjusting to this new life, his pardon, his therapist, his amends, and everything they’d gotten him into. Sure there was Yori, but that was like one old man to another, and far more complicated. You were different.

You were a bright smile that appeared at his doorstep, just moved in right across the hall. You were banana bread muffins, your favorite recipe from an old friend of the family, a burst of “thought I’d say hello!” in an otherwise quiet and lonely apartment building. And after a friendly greeting in passing, with a “that was the best banana bread I’ve had in eighty years” that earned him a laugh, it wasn’t much longer until your warm presence had found a place in his every day.

Now, weeks after those first interactions, Bucky was collecting his keys from his jacket pocket after another thrilling appointment when he noticed a grocery bag teetering on your knee and another one in your arm.

“You struggling there, doll?” The nickname had slipped some time ago, coming from a place inside him he didn’t know was still there, and you had liked it so much you almost begged him not to stop. It was driving him crazy, but he couldn’t say he didn’t enjoy it.

Right now, however, you simply scoffed at him. “No, I’m perfectly capable, sir.”

“You know you could always set them down,” he reasoned, though he walked up to you and effortlessly took both bags in his arms. You rolled your eyes, grabbing your keys from your small purse and opening your front door, stepping to the side to hold it open for him.

“Or if you had shown up a moment later you would’ve seen that I was doing just fine.” Bucky walked into your familiar apartment, chuckling softly at you.

“I think what you’re looking for is Thank you, or I couldn’t have done it without you ‘cause I’m too stubborn,” he sassed, setting the bags down on your kitchen counter while you deposited your belongings on the front table.

“I would have done it without you,” you argued, joining him in the kitchen. Your expression softened into a smile when you continued. “But thank you, James.”

“Anytime,” he smiled back, resting his gloved hands at his hips. You scrunched your nose as you widened your smile at him before moving to the groceries.

“And now that I’ve suckered you into helping me put these away…” He opened his mouth to try and argue, shrugging his shoulders back, but you shoved cereal boxes into his chest. You gave a small giggle in victory when you watched his shoulders droop, taking the boxes and putting them away for you. “You can tell me how your appointment went today.”

“I regret telling you about them,” he grumbled, earning one of your deep belly laughs. You were so polite that day, asking what his plans were, and he hadn’t been quick enough to come up with a lie. But you didn’t press into it, so they simply remained therapy appointments. Not court-mandated, not for anything specific… just therapy. “We actually talked about you today.”

“Shut up, did you really?” you asked. “What about?”

Well, that wasn’t the whole truth. Dr. Raynor had told Bucky he needed more friends. Again. And when he so defensively told her about you, she asked for his phone to look, and his stubborn pride instantly deflated. “She’s cute” was the initial comment Raynor had made about you. Of course, it was only a small portion of what they had talked about, there were nightmares and amends to be brought up... but you didn’t need to know about that.

“She thought your muffin thing was sweet,” he smiled.

“Yeah? Did you tell her you ate all of them the next day?” Bucky made his scrunchy ‘hell no’ face and shook his head, making you giggle.

“What do you have going on this weekend?” He asked as he continued helping with your groceries, doing what he could to steer the conversation away from any more details.

“I was actually going to head up to the Smithsonian tomorrow… you free? I’d enjoy the company.” You were smiling so brightly up at him, but Bucky just froze in place. He couldn’t think, he couldn’t breathe, he felt like he’d been hit by a truck.

“I uh, I actually promised I’d take Yori to lunch,” he lied. He wanted to scream, oh god, not the Smithsonian, not yet… His heart had to have been pounding loud enough in his chest for you to hear it. “Which um… which one are you going to?”

“Probably the Natural History Museum, I could spend hours in there,” you laughed. Bucky released a breath he didn’t realize he was holding, making an attempt to laugh with you. “I don’t know though, I’ve always liked the Air and Space Museum, I haven’t been in years. They had the Captain America exhibit closed the last time I went, so that’d be fun to see.”

It was like he was standing on train tracks, the train was coming, and he couldn’t do a damn thing to stop it.

“Wouldn’t it be crowded, though?” He tried. He didn’t even have any ground to stand on, he just threw something and hoped it stuck.

“Probably, but I feel like it’s always going to be crowded? Especially on weekends,” you groaned. “I’ll probably just start at the Natural History and see where it takes me,” you shrugged nonchalantly, moving to open the fridge. You grabbed two of the cokes in glass bottles you had a weird fondness for and set one in front of him.

“What’s this for?” He managed. You pulled a bottle opener out of a cabinet drawer and popped his open before moving to your own.

“A thank you, for helping me,” you smiled softly. Bucky basked in the warmth of it. “And maybe an invitation to stay?” This time you were making your scrunchy ‘pretty please?!’ face that he knew he couldn’t say no to. He took a sip from the bottle, pretending to contemplate his answer.

“What torture am I in for tonight?” The giggle that came from you rung through his head like a song.

“Well, I could always put on a movie, or we could play some of my old people music while I tell you about what Cathy did today at work.” You wiggled your eyebrows with the second suggestion, plopping yourself on the couch, tucking into the corner with your legs pulled up under you.

“The passive-aggressive one?” Bucky made his way over to your record player, filtering through the selection he knew better than he should. He held up the Ella Fitzgerald album in silent question, and you nodded enthusiastically. It had quickly become one of his favorites, just barely out of his time, but he loved listening to you sing along.

“Geez, she was the worst today, I don’t even think you’re ready.”

“Oh I’m ready,” he replied, sitting in the opposite corner of your couch.

Bucky wanted to soak in every single moment like a sponge, engrain it into his memory. The facial expressions you made when you talked passionately, the way you made him laugh, the way you got distracted by the music he was so painfully familiar with. He wanted to enjoy this moment so badly, but he was plagued by the thought that it might never happen again. That you might go to the Air and Space museum tomorrow, and figure out who he really was… and then what would happen?

Bucky felt like his world was falling apart. And there wasn’t a damn thing he could do about it, but watch.

–

You were buzzing with excitement, having checked Amelia Earhart’s plane off of your list of things to see, and making your way through the museum to the highly anticipated Captain America Exhibit. James was right, it was certainly crowded here, but this crowd had to be far more tolerable than what you imagined the Natural history would have been. Right as you approached the front steps you saw almost an entire school of children pulling up for a field trip… so you turned yourself right around to head to the Air and Space.

The first avenger’s exhibit did not disappoint, and it felt almost surreal to see the old uniforms of his and his team standing so proudly in front of you. You stopped to appreciate the details and the design of the outfits, taking great interest in the tears and damage leftover from the effects of war.

While you admired the blue jacket next to the Captain, you couldn’t help but wish James could have come with you. He had quickly gone from your neighbor to a good friend, someone you looked forward to sharing a laugh and good conversation with. A sweet smile on a handsome face you found yourself wanting to share your day with, whether it was a quiet night at home with a movie, or a day exploring history together. But you’d have a good time on your own, you would just have to bombard him with your pictures later.

As you turned away from the uniforms you caught a familiar face in the crowd and did a double-take, your eyes landing on…

Not James.

A plaque?

An old photograph…

A Fallen Comrade … James Buchanan “Bucky” Barnes.

Not James in the way you thought, but … how in the hell...

You quickly cut through the crowd to get right up in front of the etched glass wall with the eerily familiar face. ‘...enlisted shortly after the attack on Pearl Harbor… Barnes and Rogers led Captain America’s newly formed unit…1916-1944...’ It was all information that would usually have been very interesting, but right now it was fucking useless. You needed more, you had to figure out if that was your James… and what the hell had happened to him.

You probably looked like a crazy person, moving through the entire exhibit with one thing on your mind, searching every plaque and info panel for one name. The blue jacket you had admired upfront gave you nothing. The Howling Commandos section dropped his name, but no answers. The short film had some old photos and footage of him and the Captain, and had at least mentioned his death in the field … but no firm answer. All of which brought you right back to the glass etching of his face, desperate to find something you had missed.

Your texts to James went unanswered, and your call went straight to voicemail. He had to be at lunch and completely ignoring his phone… or did he know this would happen? Your mind was reeling with possibilities, only interrupted by a voice behind you.

“Interesting, isn’t he?” You spun on your heels to see one of the staff members looking at you. You furrowed your brows in confusion, realizing you were trying to catch your breath from everything. “Bucky Barnes. He’s a remarkable man,” the young man answered, gesturing to the picture behind you.

“Oh… yeah…” you managed, taking a moment to read his name tag… Devon. He continued to look at the plaque behind you, and you jumped on your opportunity. “You make it sound like he’s still around?” Devon looked back at you with a spark in his eyes, like you’d asked exactly the right question.

“That’s because he is,” he smiled. You felt your breath hitch, your heart skipping. “Have you heard of the Winter Soldier?”

Devon proceeded to tell you everything he knew, the two of you pulling off to the side as other guests continued to cycle through. He told you about the conspiracy theories, the secret organization that had taken him hostage, and the brutal history of the mystery assassin. Then there was the scandal with the death of the Wakandan leader, rumors surrounding the Sokovian accords, and the group that emerged successful after Thanos and the blip. You clung to his every word, and he seemed glad to have an interested audience.

“The government gave him a pardon for all of it though, and as far as anyone knows, he’s out there living a normal life.”

“So it’s all true? He really was the Winter Soldier, and he’s still… still around?” You asked, with both the eagerness to get the answer, but the caution to keep the appearance of an innocently interested guest.

“Well, we know he was the winter soldier, that’s for sure,” he nodded enthusiastically. “They made it public, it’s all online, you can look for yourself! That’s where I got my information anyway. Unfortunately, this is all the museum has on him.” You looked back out at the exhibit, meeting Jame’s– Bucky’s eyes once again. “I hope one of these days they put more about him in here… after everything he’s gone through, I think he deserves it.”

You could feel the tears threatening to spill at that last comment, everything he had told you and its tie to James finally hitting you. Thanking Devon for his help, you made your way out of the exhibit, out of the building, and out onto a bench in front of the museum.

The crisp breeze hit your face as a tear rolled down your cheek. You felt like you couldn’t catch a breath, thinking about all the torture, all the pain, all the years spent as someone else… You tried calling him again, cursing under your breath when it went to voicemail again.

“Dammit James, I need you,” you muttered to yourself as you stared at his contact.

‘...it’s all online, you can look for yourself…’

You must have looked like a damn fool sitting on a bench outside the Air and Space museum with tears streaming down your face as picture after picture of James came up on your screen with nothing behind his eyes. The friendly smile was gone, his hair hung around his face like a shield, his body was wrapped in constricting leather and weapons and… and a silver arm.

You had to talk to him one way or another, and if he wasn’t going to answer his phone, you were just going to have to go to him.

–

He’d hardly moved all day, sick to his stomach not knowing if things were about to change or how you’d respond. His phone sat on the kitchen counter when it began buzzing with your texts and calls as he sat on the small couch in the living room, his head in his hands. You must have made it to the Captain America exhibit after all.

After a while it became silent, and Bucky didn’t know if he liked that better or worse, not knowing what you were feeling on the other side. But he couldn’t pull himself to answer let alone get up and look at what your messages said. He tried turning on the tv to distract himself, but his thoughts were too loud, drowning out the sitcom on the screen.

The friendship he had found himself in with you was warm and genuine, almost innocent, built around nothing but each other’s company. Unlike anyone else in his life, there were no ties holding you to each other except choice. No war, no secret organization, no fighting team of weirdos and assassins, no friend in common, no guilty past… You made him feel like he did in the forties when he befriended that scrawny blonde kid in Brooklyn, and he didn’t want to lose that. Not again.

A knock at his door pulled him from his thoughts, and when it was followed by a buzz from his phone he pulled himself from the couch to find you standing before him.

His eyes were slightly red and puffy, and your heart broke. You knew there had been no lunch with Yori, that he’d probably holed himself away in his apartment, waiting. The two of you looked at each other for a few moments, not quite sure what to do.

“... Bucky?” you tried quietly, trying to ask him if what you had seen today was true. You could see him swallow when the nickname left your lips. The nickname that had followed him through time, representing the side of him he’d tried to keep from you until he was ready.

“Yeah, doll,” he replied, barely above a whisper, understanding what you meant. His heart softened when he noticed your eyes start to water.

“Are you…” you started, taking a breath to calm yourself down. Bucky’s mind was going five thousand miles a minute, wondering what you were trying to ask. Are you… the winter soldier? Not anymore. An Avenger? He hoped not. Dangerous? It’s complicated…

“Are you okay?” Bucky melted. You found out who he was and you asked if he was okay? It spoke volumes of your character, always so sweet and caring towards not only him, but almost everyone he’d seen you interact with. He let out the breath he was holding, a slight chuckled of relief with it.

“Yeah, yeah I’m okay.” You seemed to do the same, your shoulders drooping with your sigh of relief, that bright smile returning to your face as your eyes glistened with the threat of tears. He brought his hand up to rub the back of his neck, and he didn’t miss how your eyes followed the vibranium, as if just noticing it for the first time. He brought it back to hold his fingers extended out between you, offering you a better look.

“I forgot the gloves this time,” he tried, earning a slightly choked giggle from you. “Do you um… do you want to talk about it?”

“I’d like that,” you almost whispered. “If you’re up for it that is, I just… I want to hear it from your side.”

“My place or yours?” He asked softly. You’d never been in his apartment before, which was almost weird to think about considering how often he frequented yours. There wasn’t much to see, whereas you had trinkets and belongings on every surface you could manage. He just had somewhere to live, you had made a home.

“I have banana bread?” Bucky gave a genuine laugh at your comment and stepped out of the doorway to close his apartment door behind him, nodding towards your front door across the hall.

“I’m following you.”

Thank you for answering! Could I just have some short head canons on how the Wammy house boys (specifically Near and L) would cheer up their s/o after a hard/tiring day? I just had some money stolen which kinda sucks so it would mean a lot! Thank you again!! I love your writing for both Obey Me and Death Note!

Wammy Boys When Their s/o Has A Bad Day

OH NO DUDE I’m sorry that happened to you!! These are a bit late but of course I can whip up some headcanons! Thanks so much!

Near

- Probably doesn’t even realize you’re upset at first.

- But he’s honestly just very soft when you come home in general so it doesn’t really matter. You have his comfort either way.

- It will probably be later into the evening when he asks you to do something and you have to explain to him that you’ve just had a tough day and would appreciate if you could get some time to just lay around and not worry about anything.

- “Alright. When do you think you’ll get to it, then?”

- Explain to him again that you need to relax. Please don’t snap at him though, he doesn’t know what he did wrong. He’s just trying to plan ahead.

- Once he understands that you relaxing means you actually don’t want to do anything at all, he’ll propose that you put on a movie and play a board game together.

- if you start to lose he’ll make up fake rules that switch everything around so you win or, if that feels unfair to you, he’ll straight up just let you win and not tell you.

- Ugh that little smile he gives you. ‘S too cute. You instantly start to feel better when he sends it your way. That dumb goofy lil grin thing he does. Wow.

- It gets you calmed down/comfortable enough to talk about your shitty day and Near will listen to every single word. He’s the type to offer advice afterwards and recap the story to make sure you know he listened attentively. He wants to make sure you feel heard.

L

- L’s like Near in the way that he struggles to tell that there is something wrong unless you make it incredibly obvious or outright say that you’ve had a rough day.

- When he figures it out he’s just like “Oh. That’s unfortunate. Is there anything you need?”

- He may seem like he doesn’t care but please know that’s not the case. He genuinely wants to know if you need something so that you can feel better and, believe me, if there is he will get it for you.

- Asks Watari to make you “cheer up cake”, which is basically just your favorite flavor. If you’re not a cake fan (how dare) Watari will bring you whatever strikes your fancy.

- L tries to be more empathetic by thinking of times when he felt stuck during a case. Remembering the anguish he felt during those times helps when he’s trying to comfort you.

- “It feels bad now, I know. But you’ll make it out of this. And when you do, you won’t have to feel the hardships of today ever again. Of course, you’ll have to feel the burdens of other hardships later on in life, but that’s later.”

- Turns off the lights if you have a headache so the room is easier on your eyes. It doesn’t matter what he’s doing, he’s worked in the dark before.

- Before he even thinks about starting on his work again he makes sure you’re comfy and relaxed.

Mello

- He completely understands the feeling of coming home and thinking “wow what a shitstorm of a day”. He empathizes with you a ton.

- He can’t really verbalize that though. He doesn’t like getting all mushy and talking about feelings (as much as it would benefit him).

- So when Mello senses that you’re angry, bummed, or just plain exhausted, he’ll say the first thing that comes to mind, “Who do I have to fight to make you feel better?”

- Give him someone to fight and he’ll actually start putting on his jacket but will immediately stop and wrap it around you instead if you say you were kidding (If you weren’t he’d actually go beat the shit out of someone like he wasn’t joking either).

- He pulls you over to the nearest couch or bed so you can get comfortable, turns the fan on/off to make it the temperature you prefer, and insists you keep his jacket since you like it so much. If you comment about how attentive and caring he’s being he’ll just say “I know” and move on. Truly does show how he’s more of an actions than words kinda guy, though.

- He then asks if you want to talk about it. If you do, he is the most attentive listener and hype man, it’s unbelievable. if you start ranting, he’s there to agree with your points, listen to your worries, and trash talk anyone who treated you poorly.

Matt

- The moment you walk through the door he’s asking you to sit in his lap and watch him play games/play games with him. He’s hoping the relaxing atmosphere of watching him or the amusement of playing will distract you from whatever’s going on.

- He’ll make casual conversation with you that slowly turns to questions about what happened. You barely see the change, so you answer him honestly.

- He might cook you some food. If heating up frozen food counts as “cooking”. He’s trying. It’s the thought that counts.

- Or if you want some distractions he’ll take you out to get food. He likes to people watch, so he’ll tell you the storylines he makes up for everyone at the restaurant.

- If staying inside is your jam, Matt will pick out a movie you both like and can quote by heart, hoping that the familiarity will ease you from your out of control day.

- His chill attitude really helps you relax from all the stress of the day.

my turn to cry - thoughts on 3-1b

ok this has actually gotta be my favorite chapter cause holy shit so much stuff happened.

I played the Alice/kanna route and afterwards I watched a vod with the reko/shin route in which ranmaru and naomichi died before the banquet, so BIG SPOILER WARNING FOR BOTH ROUTES

Mafia Princess Sara??: Ok so first off, back in the beginning of 2020, I had a theory that Sara was a mafia heiress and that the death game was supposed to be something to “prepare” her. And that her memories were wiped or she was initially supposed to be kept blind to this whole thing (In 3-1a when everybody saw the consent form for the very first time everybody felt a sense of deja vu, except for Sara. Because why would they need her consent when she is the sole focus of the game and it’s all for her) This theory was mainly supplied by my confusion surrounding the hiring of Kai, cause why would mr Chidouin hire a former assassin to protect her?? How did he even know Kai??? But yeah, the whole thing with Shinobu Gokujo and deciding a new don through a death game just adds a lil more validity to this theory.

Sara’s real father: I also had a mini theory that Gashu Satou was her real father, but that was mostly cause of their hair color and how it would def make Sara’s hair color make more sense genetics-wise (but kai has black hair, so its most likely that his mother had black hair, which would also disprove this mini-theory but yk im not here to prove it just talk about it). And that Gashu knew of Mr. Chidouin and gave Sara to him, and it would also explain why mr Chidouin chose Kai of all people to look after her and why Kai could only watch her from a distance, in case she realized the truth that he was her brother/half-brother or something. 

GREENBLINGS CANON AAAAAAAA: I love this, I love this so much oh my god. Now I can replay and cry after 2-2 cause nankidai hates us :’). I dont have an issue with this specifically, I’m just a bit bothered by how the whole thing went. There was some buildup yea, and the cg with kanna, kugie, and shin was amazing. And that lil bit about nice hallucinations made me tear up a bit. But, then everybody kinda just moved on? and idk this whole chapter was a fuckign roller coaster I could barely keep up.

Autistic Gin <3: I’m autistic myself and I have seen many characters who are autistic-coded or exhibit many signs of autism but have never been straight up confirmed (Ex: Vera Misham from Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney). And even then, these characters usually share similar personality traits like being aloof and reserved. So it’s nice to see that Gin is representing autism in a relatively realistic manner with his hyperfixations, vocal tics, and issues with socializing. Even after nearly dying like 17 times he’s still doing well and I genuinely wish for his survival and happiness.

Ranmaru’s death: Both of Ranmaru’s deaths, (if you or if you don’t fail the electricity absorption minigame) the death feels so... off? I was really attached to him as a character, yet his death didn’t impact as much as Joe’s or Nao’s did. During his Banquet death, one second he had his really cute smiling sprite but then whoops oh no guys weird drill screw thing kills him (again). I still can barely comprehend it because it all just happened so fast. Like no cg or anything. I was honestly kinda disappointed. The “delayed” one does a better job at his death scene, but again, it was wayyy too quick and completely dismissed as everybody just moves on to defeat Maple 2.0. I at least would’ve appreciated a better transition than Midori just saying “well anyways–”

 Ranmaru’s extremely quick descent into madness in the shin route: I actually liked this idea of Ranmaru willing to go to such extremes for Sara. However, theres barely time for any of this to develop? Like again, everything just happens so fast??? I would've definitely liked if there were little hints around before the body discovery that ranmaru was gonna do something like this, just a little time for development would really be cool.

Mr. Policeman/Mr. Tazuna???: After I finished, I actually looked on the wiki to see if it said anything about his son that he mentioned and I found this: 

But yeah thats cool

The thing about Q-taro: I’m gonna say it now, I’ve liked Q-taro ever since the aftermath of 1-2, and Q-taro haters have added absolutely nothing to this fandom. Everybody saw him as a child-hater, I see him as a guy who’ll do anything to survive and succeed. I mean that wish is kinda what got him into the death game. And yeah he did try to leave that one time, but that’s what getting thrown into traumatic killing games does for you, most people don’t want to die, they want to live, no matter what it takes. We can’t all be the main character and choose to cooperate with everybody and be the “good” person in that situation. Even Sara has those extremely selfish moments and those intrusive thoughts of winning and leaving. 

This whole thing should also be applied to Ranmaru. Ranmaru has gone through so much shit in such a brief amount of time, to the point where he was considering to/actually kill people to escape with the one person he trusted in this hellhole. In that situation, Sara’s kinda at fault here, cause without Joe she’s lost her sense of morality which resulted in her becoming selfish and well... honestly kinda toxic. This emotional manipulation is really what set Ranmaru off, however it was 100% his decision to fucking kill somebody and murder’s bad. Still love him though.

But back to Qtaro, I really enjoyed the extra substance given to him in this chapter, it’s nice to see the development from being selfish to feeling deep remorse to protecting the dolls of the first trial victims, most notably Mai. As he completely forgives her for stabbing him. The chapter did a great job at fueling my already intense love for Q-taro (and it actually convinced my best friend who claims to hate Q-taro with every bone of her body to like him too!) I also love the father-son dynamic between him and Gin. I find this relationship to be really important cause Gin’s father is an abusive alcoholic and Q-taro’s an orphan who’s never had a proper role-model in his life. So it’s beautiful that despite not having anybody there for him when he was younger he can still be a good figure for another child.

Predictions/hopes for the next part: 

I just want to see whether Shin already knew about Kanna being his sister, and if he doesn’t I want a reveal. Right. Now.

A Ranmaru/Joe/Q-taro/Kai/ “Hinako” revival, p l e a se  they died so soon

More info about the people involved in the Hades Incident/Shinobu Gokujo

More info regarding Meister

Sara going on Maury

Who tf is “Hinako”????

I really hope that there isn't any specific good/bad ending. Like I want every ending to be equally bad and good yk? like equal consequences and good stuff.

Yo wtf happened to Sara’s mom?? Is she gonna come back and play a more important role in the story?? Are her parents gonna come back as floor masters???

I want things to actually change  depending on whether you picked Alice or reko, cause so far they’ve played extremely minor roles.
