✧ written for 'charm' ✧ word count: 548 ✧ rated: T ✧ cw: creepy in the luring kind of way ✧ tags: other!eddie ✧ @steddiemicrofic (≧∇≦)ノ⁠✧
The ringing wasn’t that annoying, mostly because it meant his favourite guest had arrived.
“Meow.”
And there he is, with the little charm on his collar. Steve has no idea how it makes a jingling sound but it’s so cute, he doesn’t really care.
“Hello precious,” Steve greets and opens his windows out to let the black cat in. Robin always complains and calls it a hazard, but she also baby-talks to him so Steve doesn’t take it to heart.
But the cat doesn’t come in. He stares at Steve with wide eyes, eyes as red as the jewel of his charm. Huh. He didn’t know cat eyes could be red.
The cat meows again and hops out of the window. Steve takes his coat, locks his front door and steps out. The cat meows again, hopping along the street and Steve follows.
“Meow.”
Steve blinks. The cold air has finally hit his skin and has him shivering except – he’s been cold for a while, hasn’t he? He’s been – he’s been walking for a while, his legs ache so much. Steve looks around, the shadows of the empty road crawling around him, and realizes he must have left town ten minutes ago.
How –
The cat.
The one that always came to their window and asked to be let in, the one he followed all this way.
Where is it?
“Aren’t you a little far from home?”
Steve swivels around, hand grasping out for – for what?
A man smiles at him from the middle of the road. It’s too dark to see his face but he can see his eyes.
Pretty, pretty red.
“What are you doing here, stranger?” the man asks as he holds his hand out, crooking a finger in a ‘come-hither’ kind of way.
Steve stumbles over. “I – I was following this cat, where –“
The man’s (pretty, so pretty) red eyes widen, and he barks out a laugh. Steve smiles with him. “A cat, huh? In this cold? Oh, you poor thing.”
The moment he said that, the chill of the wind bit at Steve’s ears, and he shudders.
“Oh no,” the man tuts. He steps closer to Steve, pulling him in by his waist and adjust his own thick, fur coat around the both of them. “Is that better, sweetheart?”
Steve smiles, and he knows it’s his dopiest one because it’s the one that would always make people laugh and call him an idiot.
The man’s smile drops and his (beautiful, bloody) eyes flare angrily. He holds Steve even closer, even tighter, and Steve feels so warm. “They’re not worth it, sweetheart. We’re here now.”
Nuzzling into his neck, Steve sighs happily.
“That’s it, darlin’,” the man murmurs and he sighs too. “You don’t even remember me, but I’ve been so lonely without you.”
“Without me?” Steve frowns and goes to look at the man, Eddie, in the eye but a cold, clawed hand presses his face back into the warm skin. “Why were you without me?”
“It doesn’t matter anymore, does it?” Eddie chuckles and Steve hums. “You’ve got me now and I’ve got you. Just like we said.”
Steve peeks over Eddie’s shoulder, where the lights of the town fade into the shadows. Just like they said.

Blue Moon
Once in a while the Moon is blue. Once in a while the Moon wonders where he still has left to go.
He might sit in the quiet for a little while, humming and clicking and whirring subconsciously where the shadows stand still, where it’s safe, where the light won’t blind and the sound won’t deafen and there’s no such thing as night and day.
Today is one of those days. Staring back at him from the foot of the otherwise perfectly tidy storage block that sits up against the daycare wall is a small, toppled creature with a face that looks like his, except when it doesn’t.
He’d seen himself in that doll for the longest time, thought it a strange reflection staring back at him, its round smiling face a eternal reminder that he was one of them. That, at one point, at the very least, he was meant to be seen. Reaching out into the light, he scoops it up, today more like a distorted funhouse mirror than any sort of thing he recognised, its features even-tempered and welcoming where his own uncanny glance sends children screaming into the night for his counterpart to pick up the pieces. And he never cared, not on any other day, but today he’s more blue than ever. Today he has to wonder why it looks so smug.
And his body ventures out into the dimly lit daycare, crooked and unnerving in every step it takes, and he goes through the motions of a playful little dance he only does these days when he’s about to silence something that’s stirring when it shouldn’t be, as he tucks the hapless doll that shared his face once back into one of the little alcoves where no one will find it. And he sits down on the toy barrel that would scream most days if you upset it in the slightest, and he lets out a sharp little strangled sound like broken glass that could be a laugh or a sob.
(And that’s all I’ve got so far! It’s a blue moon, so I’ve been thinking about Moon maybe feeling blue from time to time, his feelings which he normally masks pretty excellently behind his smile going a bit ��off-kilter for a bit, and everything affecting him a bit more than it usually would)

Hey guys- this isn't aimed at most people or any of my mutuals but as a general note as this has happened again:
please don't upload/repost my posts (on tumblr and other social media) or at least ask me before reposting!
I'm happy for people to use my edits/posts with credit for personal account stuff like profile pics/banners and things like transformative meme edits (again please credit/tag me)
but please do not repost my edits/artwork separately and on other sites (especially instagram/pinterest/twitter/facebook/reddit etc) unless with permission, and in those cases please credit/tag and link to the original post.
If you'd like to use my edits for your project, I'd be more than happy to collaborate, but again please ask me first and credit/tag me!! I enjoy collaborating with people but it feels kinda bad if you take my work without asking especially if you know what its like to put effort into creating work for fun/fandom??
Although it may not always look like it, I put time and effort into making edits for fun and I'd prefer to be able to know where my work is and have it not taken out of context/used for monetary gain.
If I wanted to post my work on other social media I would post it myself ^^;;
Thank you to everyone who is respectful of this and interacts with my posts- this is not aimed at you, so please don't worry! For the most part everyone is lovely- I really enjoy making edits and taking part in fandom spaces :)
To anyone who does repost- please respect this boundary ^^;;

someone left a reply on the dick garth youngest age post and when i clicked on it, i couldn't see it on the post, so i assumed they blocked me but i could 100% see their blog when i went to it so then i assumed tumblr was just being Bad as usual, but Now the comment is gone from my notifications as well and i don't remember their username so i can't check if they have me blocked.
anyway, if you're reading this random dick stan, i just want you to know that i'm not anti-dick, i'm just very pro garth and i hate to see garth erasure by fab five stans :(

24 in 2024
i haven't seen any of these floating around yet, so i thought i'd get one started! here are 24 books i want to read in 2024 (and a bonus readerly goal):
Welcome to Your World: How the Built Environment Shapes Our Lives by Sarah Williams Goldhagen
Obsolescence: An Architectural History by Daniel M. Abramson
Offended Sensibilities by Alisa Ganieva
The Night, The Night by Rodrigo Blanco Calderón
Dayswork by Chris Bachelder and Jennifer Habel
Dawn by Sevgi Soysal
Trashlands by Alison Stine
The Girl in Red by Christina Henry
How to be Eaten by Maria Adelmann
The Way Spring Arrives and Other Stories edited by Yu Chen and Regina Kanyu Wang
The Scourge Between Stars by Ness Brown
Black Tide by KC Jones
A Half-Built Garden by Ruthanna Emrys
The Ambergris Trilogy by Jeff VanderMeer
The Great Cities Duology by NK Jemisin
The Spider and her Demons by sydney khoo
A Shining by Jon Fosse
Bad Cree by Jessica Johns
Other Terrors: An Inclusive Anthology edited by Vince A Liaguno and Rena Mason
Self-Portrait with Nothing by Aimee Pokwatka
Always Coming Home by Ursula K. Le Guin

Always North by Vicki Jarrett
At the Edge of the Woods by Masatsugu Ono
Bonus Readerly Goal: i'm gonna try REALLY hard to only buy a book after i read five (5), this year (pre-orders DNI). gotta get that backlist under control SOMEhow, right??
notes on the color-coding: the green books are Just Because books (with a couple little red riding hood adjacent retellings in there, which is writing-project-related). a few of these came in a translation subscription box, and i am Interested in Architecture, and i'd love to read more of both this year.
the blue ones are bookmarked for nano prep (i wanna write something fucked up about space this year, i think, it's still cooking). i know it's early for that, but The Vibes™ have to marinate for a while. will probably add some haunted house books to this part of the list!
lastly, the purple ones are driscoll adjacent! filling my words well with related vibes worked well, this year, and i want to do that again next year. since i read through the entirety of my previous ~driscoll vibes~ stack last year, i've been restocking it, so most of these are very recently purchased.
(please note that all this color-coding/explanatory text is absolutely optional and Extra™, if you want to play--you can add it if you'd like, but by no means feel Obligated To Do So lol)
tagging @asexualbookbird, @six-of-ravens/@sixofravens-reads, @agardenandlibrary, @freckles-and-books, and anyone else who wants to play!

Idk if anyone has asked this before but I just was wondering... when it comes to Gary & Efnisien being intimate with eachother... would Gary call Efnisien (or any alpha Gary would be with) "Alpha" ? Like in dirty talk...
I'm so sorry if this was too much 🫣
Hi anon!
So... so one of the benefits of me writing my own omegaverse is that I don't have to do the things I really don't like that are tropes in omegaverse, and I am so so sorry, but that includes anyone saying 'alpha' instead of just saying a person's name, because it feels super dehumanising whenever I see it, and I can't see a way to make it happen and not feel gross while writing it.
So the reason it won't happen is not necessarily because these characters wouldn't do it, but because I find it super squicky, and it's one of the things that makes me skip omegaverse sex scenes (there are literally omegaverse books I find totally unreadable because of this - depending on how quickly an omega no longer recognises their alpha as anything other than pheromones and a cock and completely dehumanises them in the process. It's just... I write plenty of kinks I don't share, but I can't write the kinks I actively loathe).
I am happy for other folks to like copy a version of the sex scene/s for themselves and take out Efnisien's name in a document and put in 'Alpha' instead if they'll find it hotter, and save that on their computer / phone / wherever to read in the future. I just can't personally make myself do it, and I can't write a world where this would happen.
Gary's never called a single one of his alpha partners 'Alpha' in the moment, as dirty talk, unless he's saying whole sentences like: 'I do rather enjoy taking down an alpha like yourself' - which is quite different to the way it's written in omegaverse stories.
So yeah, I apologise, I can't stand the whole... 'we say alpha / omega as dirty talk' thing, to me it's as weird as making love to a guy and saying 'Male, oh Male, Male you are so hot. Male you are really hot.' God, I'm just imagining a world where folks say 'Oh Nonbinary, Nonbinary you are so hot, Nonbinary I want you inside me' and I don't want to live in that world and I'm glad I don't have to write that kind of world, as a nonbinary person, I'd really someone just use endearments and not the flat statement of my gender lmao.
To me it's like... actually just the opposite of dirty talk x.x

dumbass deltarune oc/idea
Tumblr media
Since there might be a trend of speech quirks throughout the bosses
Anjle's might be for a word at the end of it's sentence to be spelled backwards
Or
It's might be to refer to people in pronoun form as it and instead of saying gendered names like girl or boy.. It'll just use thing instead leading into it not believing in gender
Anyways, that's all for now.

Ok. Time to combine my brain worms. Kitagoro and old anime. That Combattler V cameo had me thinking about them watching old anime together.
So here is a list of some I think they would watch together:
Rose of Versailles. It's a good watch to get emotional with your husband and be gripped by the drama!
Combattler V. It was already on TV in that one scene. I also just think they'd see various old super robot anime because the designs make Kitaoka think of Magnugiga. I can also see them watching real robot ones too.
Legend of The Galactic Heroes. I dare you to look me in the eyes and tell me Kitaoka wouldn't be a snob over how he loves this one. And would go on about how he has immaculate taste, and how he owns it all on Laserdisc. Because he absolutely would.
Lupin The Third. It's a fun watch with lots to pick from. Would be good over a nice meal by Goro too.
Dirty Pair. The two would debate who is the better of the lovely angels. I personally headcanon Goro to be on Team Kei, and Kitaoka on Team Yuri.
(Feel free to also add your own ideas!)
