The fact that radfems spread this post around is actually really interesting--infuriating, but interesting. Because what they've really done here is tell on themselves.
This is the shrimp guy story:
From an anonymous green text called "shrimp saved my life" [emphasis mine]:
>be depressed, suicidal xanax- addicted incel >one day I go to my /aq/fag uncle's house for some shit >he has pet shrimp, never seen anything like it before >he offers to get me some 53 KB JPG >throw them in a barely cycled tank with some shitty rock >several shrimp die >realize that I killed them with my apathy >realize I need to take responsibility for once in my life >do research, learn about water parameters and so on >eventually I have a beautiful planted tank with no more deaths >notice a female shrimp carrying eggs >haven't felt this excited about anything in almost a decade >the eggs disappear and I once again think I fucked up >a few days later I see a tiny transparent baby shrimp >l suddenly know how the shepherds felt as they gazed upon the newborn Christ >by this point I live and breathe shrimp >all my spare time is spent on shrimp research and watching shrimp videos >l spend most of the money I had saved from my last job on shrimp products >quit the Xanax to support shrimp spending >start putting effort into college in hope of getting a good job for my shrimp >grades improve, no longer facing the prospect of dropping out >relationship with parents improves since I am finally passionate about something and applying myself >l see genuine happiness in their eyes when I talk excitedly about my shrimp >for my birthday my mom makes me a shrimp cake >it even has fondant legs and little chocolate eggs >cry like a little bitch when I see it >mom hugs me and tells me she's always been proud of me >college dorm neighbours demand to see my shrimp >shit they're gonna think I'm autistic >they actually think my shrimp are really cool >they start inviting me to their social events >start interacting with girls, get told by girls for the first time in my life that I'm fun and smart >l think my shrimp would be proud of me if they knew >We're gonna make it bros. Even if you can't do it for yourself, do it for the animals that depend on you.
He did address his relationship with women. By finding a hobby and passion and working on himself--"touching grass"--he stepped away from the echo chamber that filled him with all this rage and convinced him women were to blame for all of his problems. As someone once wisely observed, "the cure is going offline and realizing it's just. really not that big a deal."
And that is what radfems have not done, so of course they didn't spot the quiet flashpoint of shrimp guy's personal development within his story.
Edit: it's been brought to my attention that the version of the greentext post I lifted the text from was censored by someone else. My bad for not realizing that, tbh it was done so well I thought shrimp guy had done it himself, but that's an important part of the post. I've gone back through and un-censored it. The reply which was spread around with the original post addressed the words themselves well, I think; however distasteful and fucked up the incel rabbit hole is, it doesn't diminish his growth.

Once Upon a Time on the Razor Crest
Summary: Din and Ann show vulnerability
A/N: Hello lovelies,
I hope everyone has a good start to their long weekend, if you have one, and if you don’t I hope you have a good weekend. Apologies for not posting yesterday, my sisters and I decided to last minute go away, there was a lot of packing, doing my nail, and dying my hair that needed to happen. Needless to say, I was learning to type again with nails, so it took me longer to edit, than usual.
Anyway, have a lovely weekend.
Love oo
Due to the past history of the OC there will be discussions alluding to past domestic abuse, please note that as it could be a trigger for some.
Warnings: tenderness, grooming horses, rope discussions (learning to tie a knot), mentions of past abusive behaviour, past captivity, and restraints. Apologizing, grief, animal in pain, if I miss any warnings, please let me know.

THE CRESTWORLD
Chapter Seven
Chapter 7
I did my best not to stare, while he showed adoration for Misty.
Din pulled back from the gentle headbutt he was giving Misty. He lovingly stroked her mane, before directing his attention towards the knot he tied.
“Before you begin to groom, you want to make sure to use a quick-release knot, also known as a highwayman’s hitch. Make sure to tie the lead rope above the height of their wither.”
“Their what?”
“Their withers, their shoulders” he motioned. “Do you know how to tie a highwayman’s hitch?” 
I didn’t say anything, I just grabbed the rope from his hand and tied it to the barn, he simply nodded.
“Good. After dinner we’ll run through a bunch of different knots we use here on the ranch. I would recommend you spend at least 18 mins a day practising.”
I tilted my head at him, “18 minutes? That’s a specific number”
“Ever heard the 100 hour rule? 18 minutes a day for a year is all you need to be better than 95% of the world in any discipline.”
“Do I need to be better than 95% of the population in tying knots?”
“If you know how to tie them without looking, you’ll know how to untie them too.”
I shifted as I petted Misty, “Is there a reason I should know how to untie them?” 
I did my best not to look at Din, I didn’t want him to see that I already knew why it was important to learn how to untie a knot. 
After all, the only reason I knew how to tie a highwayman’s hitch was because of my ex. After the first time, I attempted to leave, he kept my hands and feet tied up and locked me up in that closet for three days. 
Of course, he made sure to check on me every couple of hours. Each time he opened that closet door, he reminded me, I needed him in my life. Without him in my life, I couldn’t and wouldn’t be able to do anything. After that incident, I made a point to learn what I could about knots. 
Misty moved her head, pulling me out of my past memories, phantom pains radiated through my wrists. My eyes closed as I shook out my hands focusing back on Din’s voice. 
“… and self-defence. You should know how to save yourself if you need to … never know when someone may … when you might run into someone who feels they have a right to dictate terms. Anyway, those are a few reasons.”
Din finished, his eyes focusing on mine. He tilted his head as though he was trying to determine if I had been paying attention to what he said; I simply nodded and cleared my throat, “Right that makes sense, emergency situations and for self defence.”
He noticed Ann’s vacant expression, it was the same expression she had when he commented about the lock on the door to her bedroom when she arrived, and when he raised his voice. Despite learning from the Marshall, she’d been one of his ‘special people’, he never inquired or asked Ann about her past, regardless he could tell she’d been in a rough spot. He regretted saying anything, it bothered him when her face turned into that vacant stare. 
It wasn’t her. 
Truthfully, he didn’t even know why it came out of his mouth. 
An odd sensation settled in his stomach, he wondered if he should apologize for saying something or just gloss over it like nothing happened. Even his reaction this morning was excessive, and although he apologized for that, he still didn’t feel it was enough.
He cleared his throat, “Ann, I … listen about this morning, I am really sorry. I was tired and cranky, barely got any sleep trying to find those damn lost sheep. Not that it excuses it, but as you know Aq Vetina can get pretty cold at night, sleeping outside wasn’t exactly comfortable … What I’m trying to say is that I apologize for taking your head off this morning. It was rude and thoughtless and you deserve better than that, so I am sorry.”
He let out an extended sigh, hoping he did the right thing.
My hands drifted from Misty and settled by my side, I wasn’t sure what to do or say. Somehow standing here listening to him apologize again made me feel odd. After all, he usually wasn’t a very talkative man, unless there was a point he needed to address. 
It was so odd hearing a man apologize and actually mean it. Her ex apologized all the time, but he never actually meant it. After every insult, every abuse, he would apologize, but he never changed his ways. 
I cleared my throat, nodding to his statement, “Thank you for apologizing. I can tell you’re sincere about it; and truthfully, after our talk this morning I realized I may have been pushing things a little.” I rubbed the back of my neck, feeling the tension there, “I’m sorry too. This sort of arrangement is new for me, so if I do step over the line with your son, please let me know. Last thing I want to do is make you or Grogu uncomfortable. Even though we haven’t known each other for very long, I feel comfortable here. With you. Both of you. I’m not trying to be anything other than both of your friends.”
“I know” Din’s hand reached up and began petting Misty, “like I said, it was all my fault this morning. Truthfully, I was missing … Camilla after the incident with the teacher.” He shifted in his spot, clearing his throat. “Friends?”
I smiled and nodded, “Friends. If … if you ever need to talk … I’m here.” I offered hoping that would ease his concern. Din didn’t respond, he simply hummed in agreement. 
Silence settled between us for a few minutes, both of us feeling awkward and slightly exposed. My eyes drifted off to the field, focusing on Bessie, when I remembered I needed to tell Din about what I observed earlier.
“I have a question” doing my best to steady my voice and move on from this awkwardness. 
“Ask away”
“Is Bessie okay?”
Din peered from around Misty, focusing on Ann, his head tilted slightly as his brows furrowed, “Why wouldn’t she be?”
“This morning she was mooing a lot, even after I milked her, she didn’t seem comfortable. She was even trodding slowly”
“Hmm, I’ll check on her in a bit” He seemed contemplative as he shifted around Misty, “Alright, so once you have Misty tied up, we start with the hooves.” Din walked Ann through the steps, teaching her which way to stand to avoid being kicked in the face, then how to curry Misty.
“You want me to curry? What’s curry?”
“It’s when the horse is rubbed or ‘curried’ to loosen dirt, hair and other waste or debris, plus it stimulates the skin to produce natural oils.”
“Oh, okay so like brushing”
“In a way”
He couldn’t help laughing as he watched her begin brushing Misty like she was a cat, “Not like that” he stood behind her, placing his hand on top of hers. He was so busy talking her through the motions, he hadn’t realized how close he’d gotten, or how small, warm and soft her hand was in his, at least not until he looked down to see if she had any questions. 
The world fell silent as their eyes locked. Din’s heart thumped against his chest, wanting to break free. Ann’s stomach tightened, as a shiver ran through her body.

hii! i'm a big fan of your fanfics, and as an aspiring writer myself, sometimes I feel sad 'cause I know and feel like I won't ever be as good as you are ☹️ I know I shouldn't compare myself, and I'm trying to get better at it, so I would genuinely like to ask, are there any tips you'd give to authors out there trying to improve? either their writing skills, plot ideas, planning and stuff. thank you, either way, love you! can't wait for your next work ❣️
So, the first thing I want to say is that I have been writing for a long time. I published my first fanfic when I was 12 years old and I’m 31 now, so I’ve been actively writing for the past 19 years (!!!) with almost no break. The way someone explained it to me once was to look at your years writing like levels in a video game. I’m currently at level 19. If you’ve been writing for ten years, you’re at level 10 and it’s certainly not fair to compare yourself to me because the only thing that’s truly going to make you a better writer is to write.
I’m assuming since you called yourself an “aspiring writer” that your eventual goal is publication, so I’ll gear my recommendations towards that. Fanfiction is a completely different animal, but a lot of these tips are applicable to both. The biggest difference is that there’s a lot more freedom in fanfiction. You can write what you want without worrying about three-act structures and you don’t have to invest any work in making people care about the characters because they already do. It is worth noting, however, that if you write, you’re already a writer. 
First, I highly recommend that you read “Save the Cat” by Blake Snyder. It changed my life and I’m not even kidding. It’s an absolutely fantastic book on writing and although it’s geared towards screenwriting instead of novels, everything is still applicable. (There’s actually a newer version called Save the Cat Writes a Novel, but I’ve never actually read that one so I don’t know if it’s as good.) He goes over how to plot a story and also how to write likable characters, which is surprisingly one of the hardest parts of writing original fiction.
The second biggest tip I can give you is to let yourself write badly. Editing is easier than writing. The most important thing is to get words down on the page. You would not believe how bad my first drafts are—and that’s not just me being coy. Honestly, the next time I sit down to write a fanfic, I might save my first draft for anyone who’s interested to read because my first drafts are always bad. Like legitimately. There’s a lot of freedom in letting yourself fail and your writing will turn out better for it.
I would also recommend getting a professional critique if you are able to because you’re never truly going to know what it is you need to improve upon unless someone tells you. Signing up for a writing retreat is a great way to do this or you can look for online critiquing services. I’ve gotten several chapter critiques from Scribbler in the past and I found them very helpful.
But truly, the most important thing is to just have fun. I heard Lin-Manuel Miranda talking about writing Hamilton once and he said that what he constantly kept asking himself was, “If no one else ever sees this, will writing it still have been worth it?” And for him, it was. That’s the kind of energy I try to write with. I write what I want when I want and if I find myself struggling to write a scene because it’s boring, I do something to make it not boring instead. Change things up! Have fun! Because otherwise, what’s the point?
About six years ago, a friend of mine said virtually the same thing you did in this ask: “I’ll never be as good as you.” She had been writing for less than a year at the time. We lost touch when I left fandom to pursue original fiction, but when I came back last year, I looked her up again. She has a Tumblr ficlet pinned at the top of her page with 10K+ notes. I could never.
So don’t count yourself out yet. Just keep writing.

I caved, I watched the teaser, here are my thoughts on it
Disclaimer: I will not be making predictions about the plot synopsis or character arcs of the upcoming episode in this post.
I want to keep a fresh mind for the episode, so that upon first viewing I can make my own observations without anyone else's influencing mine. If I get the notion to look for specific things that other people have noticed already, I might miss other things that maybe nobody has noticed yet.
I'll be perfectly happy and eager to compare notes with all of you after I've seen the full episode, but I'm doing my best to go into that first viewing with zero expectations about what direction the story might take. To that end, I'm not going to be making guesses about character motivations or plot points or anything along those lines.
With that said, I would like to point out some things about the teaser that I think are neat, the first being:
Tumblr media
That is Victim. That is definitely Victim, without a doubt.
For comparison, have the opening seconds of AvA1 and AvA2, respectively:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hmm, that figure on the left looks familiar.
The first half of this teaser intercuts AvA5 footage with, not the creation of The Chosen One, as one might expect given his presence in the rest of this teaser, but the creation of Victim, the very first character in the series (not counting the animator himself), whom we haven't seen since his debut episode.
...okay, I relent, I'll make one prediction: do I think this means we can expect Victim to come back, in this upcoming episode?
...no. Well, at least not in the way you might be thinking.
I don't believe Victim's character will return, and I have a few reasons for this:
As mentioned above, the Victim footage is all contained in the first half of this teaser, and it's intercut with previously-seen AvA5 footage. Once the new footage for the upcoming episode starts playing in the latter half of the teaser, there's no more Victim footage.
This also means that all the Victim footage in this teaser is old Victim footage. Victim's appearances in this teaser aren't new, in any capacity.
Moreover, it's all footage from the beginning of AvA1, before the animator had even named Victim. Before Victim moved on his own for the first time.
The editing of these clips makes no effort to connect Victim to what will be happening in the future, only to what has already happened. For this reason, I do not believe that Victim will have any agency in this upcoming short.
That doesn't mean he won't be there in some capacity, though. That doesn't mean his prior existence won't play a role in this short.
Notice I said "his existence," not him.
I don't think Victim will be making a reappearance in this narrative as a character with the agency to influence it. But. The fact that Alan is reminding his audience that Victim existed at one point has gotta mean something.
...okay, prediction over, back to neat observations!
Since I'm not making any speculations about the plot, the only comment I have on the footage of Chosen in a cityscape is that it is really starkly rendered, wow. They crammed a lot of detail into those buildings and that street. Look at the BRICKS.
It's a feast for the eyes, certainly, but...visually, it's an unusually busy setting for an action scene; there's so much visual information for the eye to take in that I worry I'll be distracted from the actual fight taking place.
We see Orange draw...a line XD and I'm not sure what we're supposed to get from that other than "this episode will feature Orange drawing again." Though I will note that he does this in close proximity to the cursor, which makes no move to stop him, so it seems that Orange and Alan are still getting along fine and still working together on projects.
We see Chosen being Chosen, making himself as unapproachable as possible by surrounding himself in a blazing arc of fire-breath and hovering over the water where no one can reach him unless they fly or take a boat. Yes the commentary in this paragraph is rather pointed, compared to the rest of the post.
I will say, though, that I cannot wait to hear whatever sound effects they've used for that scene. Chosen's fire-breath didn't actually sound like breath until The Chosen One's Return, and he hasn't used it since, so I'm really looking (listening?) forward to how it will sound in this upcoming scene ^_^
No comment on Orange apparently being in the outernet/interspace again...
Tumblr media
...though I will say that Spyglasses' zoom feature looks a lot like the zoom feature in many computer programs XD
Speaking of, we've got new characters! Let's start with this guy, whom I've taken to calling Spyglasses, because frankly he's the least puzzling of the two:
Tumblr media
Hello sir, please leave our orange boi alone.
Now, when I saw this guy, my first thought was to pull up The Flashback and take a closer look at the stillframe of Chosen and Dark terrorizing Stickpage. I'm sure many of you had this thought as well. Sure enough, our memories were not deceiving us, and it appears that some Spyglasses lookalikes did, at one point, dwell on Stickpage.
Tumblr media
Awsome, mystery solved, right? Well, not quite.
There are, indeed, a grand total of four sticks in the Stickpage portion of Flashback who bear resemblance to our new friend Spyglasses, here. But if you take a closer look, you'll see that the resemblance isn't exact. Compare him, for instance, to these two Henry-Stickmin-looking guys near the bottom:
Tumblr media
I think you'll agree that it's not the closest match. Spyglasses doesn't have visible eyes, and his hands look like the usual nubs instead of having distinct fingers. Plus, Spyglasses seems to have been drawn with a heavier lineweight than these two.
Well, I said he had four lookalikes on Stickpage, so what about the other two?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aha, you might be thinking, here we have matches. Well, I say look again. Notice anything different?
That's right. The heads of these two were drawn freehand. You can see the slight imperfections in the circles; they're slightly wider than they are long, and there's a bit near the top of each where it's obvious the circle was closed.
By contrast, Spyglasses' head is a perfect circle. His head shape is too mathematically precise to have been handdrawn.
Gonna dip back into speculation territory just so I can talk about what I think this means: I don't think that Spyglasses is any of these four sticks that are shown on Stickpage in The Flashback. However, since Stickpage is the only other place in the entire series so far where we've seen black sticks with white-filled heads, I'm willing to bet that Spyglasses does come from Stickpage. Whether he still lives there now is another question that I won't be getting into, but I think it's fair to say that he lived there before The Flashback, at least.
And, if he comes from Stickpage, that almost certainly means he's a user-created stickfigure.
(My impulse is to say "score 1 for my theory about the rocket org. being founded by Stickpage sticks," but this teaser doesn't actually give us any confirmation that Spyglasses is connected to the rocket org. at all.)
And finally, we come to this guy:
Tumblr media
Flowerbarrel has already pointed out that in terms of stylization, this guy bears more in common with the AIM icon than he does with any other stickfigures we've seen.
Tumblr media
Not even anybody in the Stickpage Flashback screencap looks like him. No one else whom we've seen has that different-color outline, those proportions, those squared-off hands (and presumably feet), that…flat look…he looks like if you rotated him 90 degrees he'd just be a line XD like no dimension unless he's viewed directly from the front or back. He looks…almost artificial in a weird way. Granted, this is a digital space, so technically everything in it is "artificial," but still.
Honestly I consider this guy to be the biggest mystery in this teaser, from a worldbuilding standpoint. He looks like a desktop icon, but he's obviously not on a desktop in the short clip we get of him in action. He's in the outernet or interspace or whatever you want to call it; the place where stick-cities are, the place where Showdown happened.
Is he from a user-dominated, animation-populated website like Stickpage?
Is he from a stick-city that's populated by a different type of stick than what we've seen so far with Mango and Purple? So far, every glimpse we've gotten into a stick-city not including Orange's fundraiser dreams, from AvM30 to the Cherry Blossoms short two weeks ago, has shown them to be populated by sticks resembling Mango and Purple and their families: a single color, with small, filled heads, and toeless feet. We don't know yet if Orchid was buried in the same city that Mango lives near, or if they're in completely different cities, but either way we've only been shown one variety of stickfigure living in cities like this.
Maybe he's like RYGB, in the sense that, while he himself is animated, he didn't come from an animation? (Like… Slush Invaders and Henry Stickmin are both games where the player controls animated stickfigures, but…the animation in Henry Stickmin is mostly just the cutscenes, while in Slush Invaders animation gets used in the actual gameplay too. Or, like…animations on loading screens for programs, or something.)
I have no ideas about this guy, really.
And that about wraps up my thoughts on this teaser! Anyone who wants to offer their own input is free to do so, but if you want me to read it I must respectfully ask that you please refrain from offering theories on why the characters in the teaser are shown doing what they're doing, or what their motivations are, or anything like that.
Thanks folks ^_^

I’ve always praised whoever chooses the music for 911! So if, sorry when (we’re manifesting), we get coma/hospitalised Buck and the subsequent Buddie first kiss I’m sure that whoever picks the music will, once again, slay but I’ve had A Thought. I'll either turn this into a proper song fic, or teach myself how to edit once we have a kiss shot I can use but for now, picture the scene. (Or you can read on AO3)
Buck’s been awake for a few days now, still in hospital recovering and Eddie told himself over and over that he can’t wait until something actually does kill one of them to admit his feelings, now that he’s worked them out, and come to terms with them. So he was going to tell Buck, he really was! But it’s just, there’s always been someone else there… And now Eddie’s sitting, in a chair next to Buck’s bed, watching Buck have an animated conversation with Chris even though he’s absolutely shattered and is clearly putting on a brave face. And in the background is what sounds suspiciously like a piano/power ballad, but it’s quiet, you’ll only hear the lyrics if you listen really carefully and then the music swells, crescendos and a guitar joins in. And Eddie says “Screw it”, and he grabs both of Buck’s cheeks and kisses him just as the chorus takes off.
“And I can’t fight this feeling anymore, I've forgotten what I started fighting for, It's time to bring this ship into the shore, And throw away the oars, forever”
Then I need a really dramatic spinning shot or something for the remaining duration of the chorus, with the background fading out of view
And as the next verse starts, we begin the flashback:
“My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you”
Buck watching Eddie putting his shirt on (Season 2, Episode 1)
“I've been running 'round in circles in my mind”
Buck running away from the tsunami carrying Chris (Season 3, Episode 2)
“And it always seems that I'm followin' you, girl”
“You can have my back any day” “Yeah. Or, you know, you could... you could have mine.” (Season 2, Episode 1)
“'Cause you take me to the places”
Taking Chris skateboarding (Season 3, Episode 12)
“That alone I'd never find”
Young Buck failing to skateboard (Season 4, Episode 5)
“And even as I wander”
Grocery store fight (Season 3, Episode 5)
“I'm keeping you in sight”
Lawsuit make up hug (Season 3, Episode 6)
“You're a candle in the window”
“There's nobody in this world I trust with my son more than you.” (Season 3, Episode 3)
“On a cold, dark winter's night”
Buck and Eddie talking before finding Chris after the tsunami (Season 3, Episode 3)
“And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might”
Buckley-Diaz dinner scene (Season 6, Episode 1)
“And I can't fight this feeling anymore”
Eddie smiling at Buck when he’s introduced to Clara (Season 2, Episode 4)
“I've forgotten what I started fightin' for”
Shannon tells Eddie she needed him to have her back, Chris’ birth, Eddie fighting with Shannon while trying to soothe baby Chris, Eddie under fire in Afghanistan (Season 2, Episode 7 and Season 3, Episode 15)
“It's time to bring this ship into the shore”
Buckley-Diaz video games (Season 3, Episode 9 and Season 4, Episode 3)
“And throw away the oars, forever”
Eddie breaking up with Ana (Season 5, Episode 3)
“'Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore”
Buck watching Eddie pick up Chris after the earthquake (Season 2, Episode 3)
“I've forgotten what I started fightin' for”
Taylor leaving Buck’s loft after the breakup (Season 5, Episode 18)
“And if I have to crawl upon the floor”
Buck crawling under the truck after the shooting (Season 4, Episode 14)
“Come crashing through your door”
Buck breaking the door down during Eddie’s breakdown (Season 5, Episode 13)
“Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore” And we return to the kiss for the outro, they pull back, eyes closed, foreheads resting against each other, dopey grins plastered on their faces. And just as the song ends we hear from Chris “Finally!”, breaking them out of their little world. They pull him into a hug, the Buckley-Diaz family laughing and, more importantly, safe.
Lyrics from Can’t Fight This Feeling by REO Speedwagon

Some Ravenclaw!Severus hc! (plus Aurora and Charity) sorry for the grammatical errors.
-At first he was quite disappointed for not being in the same house as his mother.
-in addition to Lily, he became a great friend of Charity and Aurora, having a friendly academic rivalry with Aurora.
-He distanced himself from Lily in a natural and healthy way, still keeping in touch when they needed each other, but each one spending more time with people from the same house.
-He spent whole hours studying in the Astronomy Tower alone, until Charity came looking for him.
-He had an academic friendship with Remus, which was based on studying together in the library.
-The marauders still bullied him but it was in minor grade, i genuinely think he being slytherin affected a big part of it (bastards).
-He was still deeply interested in the dark arts and created curses for a simple academic challenge.
-He did not have a friendship with pandora, but they talked to each other when they had tasks together.
-He was considered the most "slytherin" Ravenclaw, being somewhat feared for his biting sarcasm and humor.
- Most of Ravenclaw asked him for help with homework, since he was the smartest, although they were aware that his patience when teaching was not the best.
-Severus sometimes forgets to eat completely because he is reading a book, so Aurora and Charity take it upon themselves to drag him to the great hall.
-Despite being a Hufflepuff Charity knows Ravenclaw's password, and Ravenclaws are used to seeing her in the common room with Severus, or in Aurora's room, they don't care much, they all love Charity.
-Charity and Severus taught Aurora Muggle music, and they love listening to ABBA together.
- They go together to the forbidden forest hidden to get potion recipes (mainly Severus) and to pet the animals there (Charity) Aurora does not agree but she goes with them anyway to take care of them.
-At Christmas they stay together at Hogwarts and have sleepovers.
-The only slytherin who speaks to him is Evan Rosier because once they had to be partners in a class and they get along quite well.

Zee what fandoms do you think the YR characters are in? 💜
That is a good question, Meg, and I will do my best to figure this out. It may take me a long time. We did indeed have to talk through these with Dani. Some of these are going to have very well thought out explanations, and others will absolutely have nothing:
I feel like Wilhelm would be in like the Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows fandom. He would have been well read growing up, because reading is kind of a hobby that is universally seen as "proper." I feel like he'd pick up fantasy books just to escape for a while. It would probably make him feel more normal (even these characters in this highly unrealistic world are still just like him - anxious, queer, wanting an escape). He was excited when the Netflix show got announced.
Simon is in the Beyblade fandom, if that's a thing. I have evidence for this one - the towel from the S2 stills. He loves gaming online, and he loves gaming in person. He and Ayub had Beyblades growing up. The show was his gateway drug into Anime. I don't know if I'd go as far as to say that he's an avid anime fan, but he certainly has a few that he watches and rewatches.
Nikita answered this for me in the video from this morning, but Felice is in the Sex Education fandom. She loves the drama and the comedy and the sex. She relates it to her life, and she relates it to her friends' lives. Sometimes she talks about it so much that people get annoyed.
Sara had a Power Puff Girls phase. I have no evidence for this. I cannot explain mine and Dani's thought process. This just clicked. Sara likes the Power Puff Girls. Also My Little Pony, but not as much, which surprised everyone because that one has horses.
Henry would be one of those guys that claims he "doesn't do fandoms" because they're cringy, but then he makes fancams of his favorite football (soccer) players. And he has a bazillion edits saved on his social medias of those same players. And his room is decorated with the colors of his favorite team.
Dani and I have absolutely nothing to back this up except ✨vibes✨ but Walter was playing Kingdom Hearts before it was cool and he was playing it after it was cool. He's got group chats and stuff for it.
August might be part of the Harry Potter fandom. Again, I don't have much to back this up other than pure vibes. He, like Wille, would have been really well read as a child because of how proper the hobby of reading and writing is. August doesn't strike me as a huge fandom guy, though. Like I feel like he enjoyed media in a casual way (unless, of course, the media is his cousin's sex tape. then he watches it many, many times).
Stella was 100% a Once Upon a Time defender. Dark and twisted fairytales are her shit. She adores it. She even enjoyed the last season of it when everyone else abandoned ship. No one will watch it with her, but it's her comfort show, so she rewatches it constantly.
Everyone must agree with this one. I do not care who you are or what arguments you have: Fredrika never once grew out of her One Direction phase. She briefly got distracted by FOO and 5SOS, but One Direction will always have her heart. She is still hoping they get back together. She has posters and notebooks and collectable items that cost more than the average house.
Vincent vibes with Game of Thrones. I have no evidence, I cannot tell you why I think this, but it is what came to mind. Dragons? Absolutely a Vincent hyper-fixation. Also, I headcanon Vincent as non-binary or gender fluid, and non-binary people and swords mix well.
I can't tell if Nils would be more into Star Wars or Marvel, but probably one of the two. Something nerdy that he will for the life of him pretend is not nerdy because "I am not a nerd!"
Many of them have written fanfiction for their fandoms. None of them will talk about it.
This post got so far away from me. I don't even remember writing half of it. I think I blacked out.
Thank you @the-navistar-carol for talking me through this 💀
Last Unhinged Hours before Season 2 drops.

How've you been doing?
Hi! Honestly I wish I could say better. Things have been really tough for me lately, which also explains my absence from Tumblr, though admittedly my decreased use precludes a lot of the troubles.
In May my 13 year old cat passed away suddenly after going into septic shock. He’d been experiencing health issues for some time, but we had been managing them and checking in with the vet, and we honestly thought he was on the mend. My heart still hurts from losing him. His name was Bucky, and we got him and his brother (who passed in 2018) when I was undergoing severe health issues of my own in 2008.
Some might find it strange to call an animal your best friend, but he truly was mine. Since I was isolated from my friends and peers due to the risks exposure would bring at the time, I spent most of my days with that cat after we got him. When I came home from days at the hospital he was there. After I got better, he was there on days in high school where I felt bad about myself if I failed a test or just felt alone. Sometimes in college I looked forward to seeing him most upon coming home. And when I dealt with periods of unemployment after college, I spent a lot of time with him. Our home feels so much quieter without him.
So I’m struggling, but surviving. I’ve applied as a volunteer at a cat shelter that I did some looking-into that I really like. They need people to help socialize the cats there and play with them, I think it’s a good way to honor him by helping some other fluffies feel loved the way he made me feel loved. I’m hoping my grief can be channeled into something positive.
Besides that though, I do have a positive announcement that I hope to elaborate more on eventually, but I’ve finished my draft of my original story I’ve been working on, and the editing process is underway. Don’t know how long it’ll take but it’s one monstrous mother that’ll probably take some time. Once that’s done I’m certainly going to explain more here.
Thank you for checking in.

Surviving the BaldCoin halving.
Are you familiar with the BaldCoin Halving? You're on Tumblr! Of course you don't know the halving! But you are Jerma fans for sure.
Well. I have a secret to reveal. Jermamites haven't been making compilations out of the bottom of their heart for fun.
We've been doing it for BaldCoins. That's right. We were all mining for BaldCoins.
Every time a person watches a Jerma compilation a miner program runs and mines for a BaldCoin.
There are many rules to mining BaldCoins and I won't bore you with the specifics BUT I will say, since Jerma has initiated the Soft Retirement Protocol, it will now be harder to mine Jerma content for fresh BaldCoins.
After all, once a particular clip has been used in X amount of compilations it stops yielding BaldCoins.
The Jerma economy is going to enter deflation. In order to make good BaldCoins you have to really innovate the way you make compilations.
You're going to want to be the first person to make a video based on the latest Jerma antic.
You're going to go back into the green screen well and find something new to use.
You're going to have to travel back in time and edit streams at an era where Jerma played games for more than 4 hours.
It's going to be hard. I don't know how Cheltie will survive.
Corax is doing the smart thing and making more non Jerma content so when the inevitable happens and we've ran out of videos to make unique compilations from, Corax will have carved a niche as an animator that reviews random things for fun. He'll be like Noodle, except he has a nicer sounding voice, and doesn't act like a dick.
Me? Not sure. There was like five months where I just made Jerma compilations one after the other and I think I lost the muse that compelled me to make Jerma content.
My Jerma archive needs organizing. I downloaded the entire Elden Ring series but upon reflection it's a lot of Jerma playing the game like a jackass and doing much worse than virtually everyone else that played the game. There were Vtubers who don't play Fromsoftware games that played Elden Ring better than Jerma does.
So I need more compilations from Elden Ring and not hours of Jerma brute forcing bosses that people naturally beat in less than 30 minutes.
Jerma says he'll be making some interesting videos but I won't be holding my breath because the last time Jerma said X channel was just going to only have X content it didn't get used for that purpose at all.
Just to make a fine point of what's basically happened as a result of his soft retirement:
Jerma won't play anymore Nancy Drew games (Drew Crew is dead)
Jerma won't play Flavor of the month games (five months after it was popular but still)
Jerma will never complete his obligations on making the Catboy Jerma streams.
Jerma Wrestle is cancelled (barring it doesn't get absorbed by Charlie's wrestling show)
Jerma award shows are cancelled (not enough content produced)
Jerma Holiday streams are probably cancelled.
The Jerma debt will never be fulfilled.
The axe dodge stream is probably cancelled.
Streams where people play Co-op games should be on the table but Jerma acted like it would be a huge inconvenience to play a a co-op games so that's probably also cancelled.
So what's left? Very random things based on the very few interests he still has which is to perform (because he's a theater kid at heart) and do like streams of him reacting to consumerism. Oh an House Flipper. I don't know why but we'll always have House Flipper.
So we're like 12 streams a year now at best.
But I've been through this before. Jontron era gamegrumps, Yathzee19, I'm going all in on Neuro Sama. That Chatbot is peak content.
For now though, enjoy probably my favorite Jerma Compilation edit.

Africa Risen review
Tumblr media
Big thanks to Netgalley, Tordotcom, and the authors for an ARC in exchange for an honest review! The Blue House: Dilman Dila 3/5 stars I thought the concept of this one was interesting, an android attempting to remember her life and identity when she was a human, but had trouble with all the memory.sys and security.sys stuff. March Magic: WC Dunlap 5/5 stars I enjoyed the imagery in this one. Irl: Steven Barnes 5/5 stars I really enjoyed this story. Shango seems pretty unbearable at first, but he really comes through. I also liked the alternate/future version of justice and the intricacies of it. The Deification of Igodo: Joshua Uchena Omenga 3/5 stars This was an interesting story, but not really my thing. Mami Wataworks: Russell Nichols 5/5 stars I was somewhat confused by this one at first, but once I got a hang of the setting, I quite enjoyed the post-apocalyptic scene. Rear Mirror: Nuzo Onoh 5/5 stars This one was very entertaining. I liked the idea and imagery of an angry ghost tormenting the people going against her last/burial wishes. Door Crashers: Frank’s Zeph 3/5 stars The concept of this was intriguing and I think it really felt like it was going somewhere toward the end. However I was confused for most of the story. The Soul Would Have No Rainbow: Yvette Lisa Ndlovu 4/5 stars I liked how we jumped between the past and the present for this one. I also liked the mythological feeling the story has. A Dream of Electric Mothers: Wole Talabi 5/5 stars This one was interesting. I liked how it took contemporary beliefs and carried them forward to be adapted into a sci-fi world. The imagery was also very vivid in this one. Simbi: Sandra Jackson-Opoku 5/5 stars This is a pretty quick story, but I liked the variation on Mami Wata. Housewarming for a Lion Goddess: Aline-Mwezi Niyonsenga 5/5 stars I liked this story a lot. There’s a lot of imagery in it and the narrator had a dual-story thing going on. A Knight in Tunisia: Alex Jennings 5/5 stars This was definitely interesting. The shape of this world was somewhat confusing to me, but I liked the concept. The Devil is Us: Mirette Bahgat 3/5 stars I thought this was going to go somewhere but then it didn’t really, so… Cloud Mine: Timo Odueso 5/5 stars I liked this one and where it seemed to be going. I can definitely feel a larger character arc for Salim. Ruler of the Rear Guard: Maurice Broaddus 4/5 stars This was an interesting picture of future-America (or really a slightly exaggerated current America) and how people might find their way out of it. Peeling Time (Deluxe Edition): Tlotlo Tsamaase 2/5 stars TW implied rape I liked the ending of this, but the rest do it was fairly graphic and I wasn’t a fan. The Sugar Mill: Tobias S. Buckell 5/5 stars This story does a good job of showing the predatory nature of land development and of how ‘white vegans’ often prioritize animals over human lives. I liked the ghosts in this story, and I thought it was a funny touch that they enjoyed watching reality TV. The Carving of War: Somto Ihezue Onyedikachi 4/5 stars Interesting, but I was kind of confused. Ghost Ship: Tananarive Drive 5/5 stars This one head a good vibe to it. It feels like one thing at the start and then it becomes something else. I do wish we’d gotten to see Burden again though. Liquid Twilight: Ytasha Womack 4/5 stars This was a light story, though I don’t think I totally understood the ending. There are some implications there that I think I get, but it’s hard to tell. Once Upon a Time in 1967: Oyedotun Damilola Muees 4/5 stars I liked all the different magical creatures in the story. A Girl Crawls in a Dark Corner: Alexis Brooks de Vita 5/5 stars TW/ FGM, rape Unpleasant business but it has a satisfying ending. The Lady of the Yellow-Painted Library: Tobi Ogundiran 5/5 stars This was a fun little thriller/horror story. I enjoyed the anticipation of what would happen. When the Mami Wata Met a Demon: Moustapha Mbacké Diop 4/5 stars This was another horror-esque story, but it ended on a lighter note. The Papermakers: Akua Lezli Hope 5/5 stars I thought this one was cool. The paper magic and process of making paper are interesting to me. A Soul of Small Places: Mame Bougouma Diene and Woppa Diallo 5/5 stars TW mentions of rape This one is good, has a satisfying arc. I also like the ‘monster’ in this one. Air to Shape Lungs: Shingai Njeri Kagunda 4/5 stars The narrative here is in an unusual style. Interesting story though. Hanfo Driver: Ada Nnadi 4/5 stars This one is an entertaining story about misadventures with a hover bus. I did have some difficulty with it since it’s written in dialect. Exiles of Witchery: Ivana Akotowaa Ofori 5/5 This one is probably one of my favorites from the anthology. There’s magic and mayhem and solidarity, with a dash of danger. The Taloned Beast: Chinelo Onwualu 5/5 stars TW/ rape, abuse An overall good story about accepting who you are and standing with other people against the world. Star Watchers: Danian Darrell Jerry 3/5 stars I feel like this one had a lot of potential but doesn’t really have a lot of follow through. I want to know more about the Star Watchers and their community, and I think a slightly longer story could help with that. Biscuit and Milk: Dare Segun Falowo 4/5 stars This one was…weird, lol. It was definitely interesting and I think I liked it, but it is very weird.

you have people simping for you
characters : midoriya izuku, shinsou hitoshi, todoroki shouto
fic type : headcanons [fluff, kinda spicy in one part]
legend : [Y/N = your name] they/them pronouns used, all might’s daughter reader in izuku and shouto’s part. (telekinetic quirk mentioned briefly)
notes : yeah so.. i’m still emptying my requests, SO TO THE ANON THAT REQUESTED DONT WORRY I’LL DO IT :)) also i didn’t post yesterday because it,, didn’t feel appropriate to be writing about anime characters, meanwhile someone’s life has been taken from them because of something they didn’t even do??
≿━━━━༺❀༻━━━━≾
Tumblr media
midoriya izuku
okay, so this is how things happened
you know on tiktok, some people make those “___ hits different here” videos
yeah, that’s your type of simp
in short— you blew up on tiktok and you didn’t even know.
does izuku have tiktok? tbh he doesn’t look like the type, but he’d have it for sure
but because everyone in the hero course is so busy, he rarely goes on it
but his fyp is full of all might for sure
anyway, he has some spare time— and you’re still washing up the plates from dinner and you begged him to rest
so, he’s scrolling, and he sees
you??
but the context was “all might’s daughter hits different here.” and its a clip of you from the sports festival just breathing
(it was you with the doja cat streets audio)
izuku was like 😳
he later discovers that you have an entire hashtag dedicated to you.
he’s always seen you as attractive but he wasn’t aware that you had an entire hashtag
he’s shook
so you walk in and he’s like 👁👁 looking at you like a million flashbacks are playing in his brain
and you look at his phone, and you realize it.
lowkey, he got jealous of the comments, and got a little down like a sad puppy
but he comes to realize that you’re his, and he knows you won’t trade him for anything else
(he posted one video flexing you, and he kept it up for an hour before he took it down. it got like.. 500k views)
Tumblr media
shinsou hitoshi
kinda smug, kinda insecure
like yeah, you’re hot.
he’s definitely seen people eye you as you pass by them
and it’s priceless to see their reaction upon seeing your face for the first time.
people’s genuine reaction to seeing your pretty face makes him proud.
and he kinda teases you for it “you see that kitten? they’re drooling over you y’know.”
“shut up ‘toshi”
but.. did he know you had an entire side on tiktok? no.
he’d assume that’s a celebrity thing, but you know how this generation is like..
shinsou again, is on skater tiktok, so he’d probably stumble upon you somehow by accident
because his fyp is kinda full of pretty girls, but he always scrolls when he sees them, so don’t worry :))
clicking on your hashtag, he sees people literally simping over you catching your breath in the sports festival
and you just.. standing there
damn, they need to touch some grass
but ngl, you’re hot. the music makes you hotter, and the edits make you hotter
you’re just.. hot
he’s proud that people have finally recognized you, and there’s a mutual agreement that yes—
Y/N is a hottie
but!! is he a little worried you’ll leave him for someone else because of these simps? there are people constantly hitting you up
but oh boy, does shinsou need to know that he’s the only one you need
and he WILL duet one of those simp videos, showing you off.
Tumblr media
todoroki shouto
is this how you feel like everyday?
i mean.. a lot of people simp for him too, he’s just.. not conscious of it.
being all might and endeavor’s child means something, and it means that you’ll probably appear in the media at least once.
you both casually cause some bi panic
shouto doesn’t have tiktok because.. why have tiktok when he has you, y’know?
he finds out when the bakusquad is staring at an edit of you
he’s a little confused as to why some stranger made an edit of you just.. sitting down
but!! it hits so much harder ngl
does he become a little protective because of these tiktoks? maybe.
he trusts you a lot, but.. grr.
at least now shouto knows how you feel whenever some fangirl simps over him openly
won’t really tell you about Y/N-tok or all might’s daughter tiktok as an entirely separate conversation.
but he’ll just bring it up one day while you’re rambling to him while cuddling
“you’re tiktok famous.”
“huh? i don’t even have a tiktok.” you’re not allowed to have a public account bc of your dad, so how are you famous on tiktok??
“you are though. a lot of people think you’re pretty.”
“oh really?”
“yeah. i think you’re beautiful. so i can’t be too mad at them.”
“too mad??” you ask, and he’ll just hide his face— expression bashful.
“i won’t leave you,” you laugh, peppering kisses on his cheek, “you’re a lot better than faceless people on the internet.”
will post a video of you, and he’ll be like 🧍they’re mine
and it’ll get 1.9M views
in short- shouto deals with it just fine, since you deal with shouto’s fangirls on a daily basis anyway.
       
≿━━━━༺❀༻━━━━≾
likes and reblogs are appreciated, thanks for reading
i do not own bnha/mha and it’s characters. boku no hero academia/my hero academia belongs to horikoshi kohei. i only own the writing
do not plagiarize my work :))

Obey Me: The Brothers Accidentally Trigger an Abused MC (Beelzebub) (6/7)
Disclaimer: I’m not an expert on abuse or mental health. I’m not portraying how one should respond to these situations, only how I think the characters might. Abuse and trauma in particular are very complex topics, and people respond in all sorts of ways to them, and sometimes it gets really bad on all sides.
I can only draw from my personal experiences as well as those of people who have shared their stories or who I’m close with. There’s no one narrative of abuse and how it affects someone, so what I’m familiar with might not be what you’re familiar with. Let’s try and all be respectful of each other.
Content Warnings: Heated arguments, reference to past abuse, parental abuse, trauma response, breaking down in tears, this is quintessential hurt/comfort y’all, buckle up
Kinda cheating for the twins unfortunately! (In the sense that I’m gonna rely heavily on canon events) In Beel’s case it’s because we’ve only ever seen him lose his cool about either food or family, and for Belphie, well… you’ll see.
Gaaaah tumblr’s stupid new thing where if you resize the tab it wipes your post and switches between mobile and desktop versions made this SUCH a bitch to edit, but here it is! Once again, thank you all so much for your patience! I’ve learned not to make promises about when the next part will come out, but we’re almost done! It’s just Belphie left, then I get to the other requests!
To clarify, the initial dialogue in this scene is not mine, but comes from Lesson 4 of the game and is based on events from Lessons 4 and 5. 
Lucifer (X) Mammon (X), Leviathan (X), Satan (X), Asmodeus (X), Beelzebub (you are here), Belphegor (X)
“Now what do we have here?” Mammon soliloquises. “Looks like a custard.” 
MC has absolutely no idea what possessed them into letting him drag them to the kitchen. 
“Mammon, are you sure we should-”
“Here, eat this,” he cuts MC off, handing them a cup of custard. “I need an accomplice. I don’t wanna be the only one in trouble.”
“In trouble?!” They look down at the custard lid. A note is firmly taped to it.
Property of Beelzebub. You eat it, you die.
They gulp. They really shouldn’t be touching this, what if…
“You’ve gotta be seriously brave to eat this custard here.” Mammon snatches the dessert back and waves it around. “If you can do that, I’ll admit that you’ve got guts.” 
I won’t have any guts if Beelzebub finds out, MC thinks. They know the consequences for stealing food. I don’t care if you haven’t eaten all day, you DO NOT touch that fridge, understand?
“So you’re gonna do it, right? What am I sayin’? Do it. That’s an order.”
Then again, they don’t know what Mammon’s capable of either.
Go on, do it. You want to waste food so bad? Go in the trash and fish it out like the animal you are!
“...Okay, I’ll eat it...” 
“There we go.” Mammon’s grin is wolfish as he holds out a spoon for them.
It tastes… oh wow. It’s very good custard. They almost want to go back for another-
“You did it!” Mammon shouts, and MC flinches so hard they nearly drop the container. “You totally ate Beel’s custard! I saw ya!”
Now you’ve done it, MC! You know how mad our parents are gonna be when they get back!
I… I had to… I didn’t want to… But it had been days...
“Shhh-!”
“Great, now I’ve got an accomplice. If you ate his stuff too, that means we’re in this boat together!” He returns his attention to the fridge. “So, my turn. Let’s see if I can find anything else good in here. I’ve got a feeling there’s probably something nice hiding back here in this corner-”
A shadow looms over the pair. MC’s blood goes cold. They’ve been caught again.
“D’AH! Beel!” Mammon squeaks. “Wh-What’s the big idea sneakin’ up on me like that? How long have you been there…?”
“Did you eat my custard?” Oh no no no no no. “Did you actually eat my CUSTARD?! Answer me, Mammon!”
Who ate it? Well? Answer me! Or none of you are eating tonight.
“N-Now wait a second, Beel! Lemme explain! There’s a good reason for-”
“You did, didn’t you…?”
Pink flames envelop the Avatar of Gluttony as part of his human illusion falls away. An intimidating pair of sharp horns curl around his head and massive fly’s wings buzz angrily on his back. 
“You… ate… my… CUSTARD!”
“Uh-oh!”
As Mammon attempts to escape Beelzebub’s wrath, all MC can do is remain perfectly still, the custard container clutched tightly to their chest. They’ve. Been. Caught.
It’s ridiculous. A small, hysterical part of MC laughs at the absurdity of being caught between two of the most powerful demons in Hell, squabbling over custard and chasing each other around the kitchen. A choked noise escapes them instead. The custard turns sickeningly sweet in their mouth.
The paralysis is broken when Mammon goes sailing through the kitchen wall. Is that-?
A hole in their wall, just above their head. Screaming voices, crying, begging, accusing. They’ve been caught, and now they will be punished.
Footsteps approach MC, and a figure stands towering over them, so much taller, he wouldn’t even have to lay a hand on them for them to be scared, but he will, he will, he’ll hit them again, again and again and again and-
“MC-”
“PLEASE DON’T HIT ME!” They hold up the custard towards Beelzebub, their limbs confused between the desire to return the offending dessert and protect their face. 
The Avatar of Gluttony is almost offended by the outburst, until he hears Mammon groan and attempt to get up, shifting some of the rubble before collapsing once again. Okay, maybe he doesn’t have room to be offended right now. 
He plucks the container from MC’s vice-like grip, the difference in strength between the two so great that he doesn’t feel their resistance. Oh, it’s almost completely untouched. Maybe he overreacted… Then again, it is Mammon. 
...It’s MC’s room that connects to that wall, isn’t it?
Beelzebub opens his mouth to apologize to MC about their wall, to assure them that they’ll figure out a place for them to sleep until it’s repaired, but they’re already gone, sprinting off further into the House of Lamentation.
Did he scare them that bad…?
~
After the three hours of lecturing that ensued, MC isn’t sure if notifying Lucifer was, in fact, the best idea. While Mammon and Beelzebub had seemed bored, annoyed even, they were barely able to stay on their feet by the end of it. Perhaps they’re still exhausted from their sprint to Lucifer’s study, as well as… other factors.
Lucifer calls their name sternly, as though he has done so several times already. They start and straighten up, but can’t bring themself to quite meet the demon’s eyes.
“I asked you a question.” 
“Oh…” they say. “...Sorry...I didn’t-”
“Are you sure you’re comfortable staying in Beelzebub’s room?” They don’t reply, and something in Lucifer’s expression softens. “You were quite distressed when you came to me. If my brothers have done something to upset you, I need to know. Your wellbeing is a crucial part of the exchange program.”
MC laughs humorlessly. “You mean other than destroying my room, I’m guessing.”
The Avatar of Pride falters almost imperceptibly, disguising his surprise with a cough. “Yes, other than… the collateral damage.”
“...Yeah,” they eventually say. “Uh, yes, I’ll stay with Beel until my room is fixed. It’s fine.”
“Wonderful. You’re free to go.” He promptly leaves, muttering about calling the construction worker so soon after the last time. 
While MC has a feeling that Beel would be completely fine not addressing the Custard Incident so long as they don’t treat him any differently, they feel the need to explain themself for both their sakes. They tell Beelzebub about their upbringing, about how controlling their parents were when it came to food, and how they’d have to sneak meals more often than not. The punishments they faced when caught doing this.
Beel is horrified and feels incredibly guilty upon finding out what he inadvertently forced MC to relive. He once again assures them that he knew it was Mammon who talked them into eating his custard and that he doesn’t really hold it against them. In fact, from then on, the Avatar of Gluttony invites them on his frequent “snack runs” (which, for Beel, consist of an amount of food MC would normally call a family meal) and personally makes sure they’re eating enough regularly. 
One day, MC comes back from a long afternoon studying at RAD and nearly panics all over again at the sight of the kitchen. Saucepans, bowls, half-empty containers, and all sorts of utensils litter the room, not to mention a healthy coating of sweet-smelling fluids. At the centre of this mess is none other than Beel, who smiles and waves upon noticing them, sending more flecks of custard to the floor.
He hands them a container of custard, complete with a lining of various fruits around the edges. On its lid is a note: Property of MC. 
It’s very good custard.
“...I…” They can’t. Not if that will happen again. They shake their head, the tears threatening to return.
Lucifer holds back a sigh and nods. “Very well. We’ll find other accommodations until your room is repaired. Perhaps Mammon will get his wish after all…”
Beel doesn’t understand why the human is avoiding him. At first he thought they were still mad about the whole going-on-a-rampage-and-destroying-their-room thing, but they’ve since forgiven Mammon for causing that, so that can’t be it. He keeps returning to the thought that it was something about him, that he scared them so bad they don’t feel safe being around him. Did they think he would try and eat them?
That’s not entirely unfair, he thinks. Especially considering they’re a human in a house with a bunch of demons.
But they aren’t scared around anyone else. Not Satan’s propensity for fatal grudges, not Mammon’s recklessness, not Lucifer’s intimidating presence, not Asmo or Levi’s volatile mood swings… It was just him.
Because he’s just a useless glutton.

Alucard (smut) form my old account not edited
They say that everyone has a mate, and once you find your mate nothing and no one can take you away from them. I was not a normal human being I was a feral muntin of the cat kind and with my power, I can change into a large cat or a small one it really depended on what I needed.
" (Y/N) I have a need for you to take the wild geese and go and track down the vampire who is draining a town full of people" I looked over at my boss who just so happens to be the one who was the master or monsters and I fit right in with that. I was a monster and I had no problem with that.
"Of course, my Master," I said bowing down to her before walking out of the door It was about 30 years since the blitz in London and they were still waiting for this Alucard guy to show up. I had come to Sir Integra just after that day having saved her life back then and I was the one who helped run things after. I did just about anything she needed me to and with the power I had I could go days without sleep and would be just fine.
"Let's go Pip grab the guys, we got a job to do," I said looking over at my best guy friend as he lit up a cancer stick. In the acatke, on the manner, Pip was wounded so badly and almost died only to bring himself back from death by drinking the blood and becoming a vampire.
"Oi (Y/N) where are we headed?" he said as the guys got into the jeeps
"We're going to cheddar to kill a vampire" I said grinning my fangs on full show Pip smiled back.
(Later)
I walked into the manner after writing up a report and headed down to my room I knew my master was asleep and would give it to her in the morning. I heard the sound of gunshots and ran as fast as my legs would carry me to my master's room where I came face to face with sears and her big ass gun. She kicked open the door flashing everyone when I heard her gasp.
"Master!" She yelled out before lowering her gun I, on the other hand, kept my tense stance.
"What the hell is going on? Master are you alright?" I asked coming to stand close to her as I walked more into the room the scent of this man made me purr out before I could stop myself making My master looked at me with a raised brow.
"Yes, I'm sure you would like to know who this is (Y/N) this is Alucard the one who we have all been waiting to return," she said while sitting on the bed I felt a pull towards this man and was hoping like hell he was not my mate.
"Well if there is no danger than I shall take my leave, good night master," I said not looking over Alucard and walked out of the room. I had no clue what was going to happen now but I had a feeling I was being followed and just as I opened my door Alucard was sitting in my chair.
"So you took my place while I was gone?" he asked with a bored tone I had to give it to him he sure was sexy.
"Somewhat, I'm not really human so I can do things other can't trust me though it's been really boring," I said thinking all of the times I went on hunts only to come up with someone who was not worth even my time to fight.
"Tell me how old are you?" I looked over at him finding that he looked like someone I had met before only I could not put my finger on where i had seen him before.
"Eh, about 300 years old give or take," I said sitting down on my bed he was nice to talk to even if he is prying into my life. Even though I know this I find myself unable to hold back when he asks me things. "If you have nothing else to say I'm gonna get some sleep," I said as I pulled the blankets back so I could get into bed I felt the air around me heat back up and knew that Alucard had left.
(One Month Later)
"You was reckless! If I didn't step in you would have been killed" Alucard growled form everything I knew about him the only one he truly cared about was our master and the police girl.
"Oh please, I can't be killed, trust me I would have been dead a long time ago," I said stripping off my top to show him I was healed I felt his cool body get closer to mine and felt him run his fingers down my back.
"Tell me when do you plan to stop fighting this and give in?" he growled out his face close to my neck inhaling my scent.
"I have no clue what you mean," I said turning around to face him and felt my knees go weak at the look on his face.
"You are my mate, my queen, my fourth bride," he said with each kiss to my lips before deepening the kiss and stealing my breath away. I was lost to his touch and the taste of him I knew what he was saying was true but I was still going to make him fight for it. I was not the type to lay down and give in, I was a fighter.
"Oh really? You think that? Hmm, how about you prove it then" I said holding him close to my body his cool hard body felt wonderful against my hotter body with what I am I ran a little hotter than normal.
"I plan on it" Before I knew it I was laying on my back naked with a very sexy powerful vampire laying on top of me kissing sucking on my neck. I could feel his fangs scrape my neck and turned my head a little more giving him more room to work with. I had a plan to fight him but I didn't say I would not enjoy what he was doing.
While Alucard was working on my neck I tightened the hold on his hips and flipping us over so I was on top and I leaned down to crash his mouth to mine our fangs clashing and our tastes mingled together making me moan. I could feel how hard he was and wanted to taste him badly so I started to kiss down his neck leaving little bites as I went until I was face to face with his manhood. He was the biggest I had ever seen and couldn't wait till he was inside of me.
"Who said you could be on top? I heard him growl out as I licked the tip tasting him I locked my eyes with his before taking him fully into my mouth and down my throat making myself gag on him. I felt him grab onto my hair and held me in place before thrusting up and fucking my mouth while he was doing that I started to rub on his balls making him lose his pace and thrust up into me a little harder.
"Fuck, You suck my cock so well, take all of me I plan to cum down you pretty little throat" Alucard growled out before fucking my throat how he wanted I loved how he was using me even though I was on top he was very much in control and I loved a man who knew what he wanted and could take control of me in the bedroom. I knew he was close and sucked extra hard on him making him jump over the edge and cumming down my throat. I slowly sat up keeping his cock in my mouth as long as I could before I let him go with a loud pop and licked my lips. Before I knew it I was back on my back and he was raging hard again.
Alucard kissed me biting my lip till I opened my mouth to him and our tongues dueled for dominance. He won in the end only because he cheated by playing with my clit. I was dripping wet and was close to begging him to fuck me. I don't even remember the last time I had been fucked good and hard.
"Your dripping already and I have barely even touched you, my queen," he said while speeding up his pace I was a moaning mess by the time I felt his long as fuck tongue plunge into my hot wet cunt fucking me. I arched up and grabbed a fist full of his hair and was pulling him closer to me my claws starching his scalp making him groan.
"Fuck! Please don't stop, make me cum on your tongue" I begged while I started to thrust into wet needy cunt on his warm tongue I heard him growl and throw my head back at the feeling, it sent me on my clit. I was so close to coming that when he pinched my clit it sent me over the edge Alucard was making a happy sucking sound as if I was the best thing he has ever tasted in his life.
"Are you ready for me?" Alucard said as he moved his body back up was he was nestled in between my legs I was more than ready for him. I wanted him to fuck me tell I could not move anymore.
"Fuck me, Make me your, Make me forget about anyone else but you" I moaned out while thrusting my hips up into his feeling his hard manhood rubbing on my clit.
"As you wish" was the last thing I heard before my world was crashing down when he plunged into my cunt fucking me right off the bat. Alucard didn't wait to let me adjust he fucked me like he was a man possessed. My nails were digging down into his back drawing blood making him growl out his fangs got longer. I could feel I was losing control of my animal side and flipped us over where I was on top of him. Alucard grabbing my hips and started to thrust upon me as I took control of the speed and rode him how I wanted. I was so fucking close to cumming that I had nothing else On my mind but finding my peak.
"Fuck, Yes, Fuck me just like that! You feel so good inside me" I moaned out I was flipped back onto my back with him on top of me the whole time we were fighting for who was going to be on top. Our fucking was more like a fuck and fight only this time no one would die.
"Who do you belong to" I heard him growl in my neck but I was too far gone to speak and was only able to moan for him. The feeling of his hand around my neck choking me brought me back to myself and I could understand what he had asked me.
"You! I belong to you!" with my words I felt him sink his fangs into my neck drinking my blood I had this uncontrollable urge to bite him as well and did just that. Marking him as my mate for the rest of his undead life. The feeling of him sucking my blood pushed me over the edge and I came screaming his name my nails going down his back drawing blood.
When I finally came back to myself I realized that he was no longer on top of me and that a blanket was over us both. I rolled over and laid my head on his chest where his heart should be beating only to find it wasn't. Alucard's cool body helped to cool me down after our mating.
"Well, That was fun," I said yawning my eyes were getting heavy and knew sleep was not far off
"Agreed" was the last thing I heard before I was pulled into the darkness of the dreamworld.
