I was wondering 👉👈 what do you think of someone having a singing quirk?
Honestly....i have NO singing abilities so I  wierdly have imagine how cool it would be to have that type of quirk? 
Like-here me out on this little sceneario....
---------------
Your in training, a total newbie to Class 1-A. You had just transferred from another Class as your teacher had seen great potential in you from your work...your quirk wasnt as loud or flashy as 1-A, but it definitely had merit for itself. You were desperate to get into 1-A, and now you were just desperate to prove yourself to be worthy enough to stay.
But now it didnt feel so easy- Bakugo stood in front of you, (we all knew I was going to pick Bakugo no surprise there) daunting and menacing as ever, taunting you with his words.
“The hell-how a small fry like you trasnfer into 1-A?” he said haughtily, his voice almost like a knife, slicing into you with its judgement. 
It was your first day in Class 1-A- and as luck would have it, you were forced to spar with Katsuki Bakugo, the resident asshole of the whole class in a match similar to the duels of the Sports Festival. The rules were simple- push your enemy out of the designated “arena” area.
Simple enough...but when your partner is hell bent over winning and taunting you the whole time about how insignificant you were when compared to him, it really made you less than optimistic about a win.
Oh goodie.
You took a deep breathe, your throat forcing down a ball of dry saliva....
vocal chords need cant be dry, you chanted in your mind, that’ll just screw over your quirk if they did.....
Voices began to be heard....a boy with spiky red hair chuckled nervously, trying to reassure you that “Bakugo” didnt mean what he was saying, he just had a “strong personality”
Another with freckles and green hair gulped loudly, all color seeming to drain from his face as a boy with blue hair furiously berated him for being so “disrespectful to our fellow classmates”....
The others whispered, staring at you expectantly... what were you going to do, challenged with this threat in front of you? Bakugo was notorious for being the self proclaimed “next #1 hero” of Class 1-A, everyone in UA torn between hating his guts and admiring his skill. 
“What-not gonna say anything back?” ha taunted, his canines flashing in a wicked grin, “I should have known, someone like you has no fucking place to be he-   he       here-”
The once glaring Katsuki was now suddenly wided eyed- 
there was a song being played,             so muffled,              as if someone had put cotton in his ears-
“My heart is pierced by Cupid,”
He looked frantically in each direction, desperately searching for that voice-what the hell was even happening?
The....the wide blue sky wasnt clear anymore....no...it was-was almost like a burning sunset, a vivid dream, the sky now a hazy purple shooting up to a bright, vibrant orange. It was so strange, so soothing....al  anger melted from his body, his limbs relaxing....
I disdain all glittering gold
The song was getting louder           the more he succumbed to the sound....he actually        -enjoyed-this-      it was so strange, so different, so sweet to listen to....the voice was enchanting,,,,,, melodic,,,,,,,entoxicating.....
There is nothing can console me
A figure was emerging from the fog, its presence rippling the soothing patterns, the mist almost as if coming from their being.
 His vermillion eyes sleepily trained themselves on the figure, his heart beating like a steady drum in his chest....
Its them. They're the voice- 
theyre presence was so soothing, so warm, so inviting..... 
Bakugo somehow found his feet were moving on there own accord,
 clunky as if being controlled from an invisible force
 guiding him to the person he wanted to be to now the most-
Each step made the song louder, making his heart race and glee fill his chest...                  who were they?                What did they look like?                  What did they feel like?                          Oh, god he just wanted to know...so, so badly....
“But my jolly sailor bold”
Bakugo gasped audibly, a feeling like being dunked in freezing col water shooting through his body. 
“What the hell-” he sputtered out, his eyes wild and head spinning. The voice, the fog, the-the person....what was all that-
“Whoa-Katsuki is out!”
A deep, terrible horror washed over Bakugo, his eyes slowly looking down, almost too scared  to look....his classmates began gasping, whispering, pointing down at his feet-
He-he was passed the line, a full foot away from the blaring yellow line that was now behind his reach-
He lost.
Shock turned into frustration, frustration turned to anger, and anger turned to fury.....
So Bakugo did what he knew best
“THE HELL YOU DO TO ME HUH?! THE HELL-HOW DID YOU-” he shrieked at you, his voice oozing out hatred and embarrasment.
It was you. You-your were that voice....that ringing in his ear....how could something so beautiful and so dangerous come from someone as puny as you? You had no flashy quirk, you had nothing that made you more special than him...
But somehow....you beat him....and he couldn't even fight back.....he let you-
He fucking allowed you to beat him and make him look like a fool.
“Its my power,” you stated plainly, a small, annoying ass  smirk gracing your lips. “It allows me to sing and control anyone’s perception of reality. As long as I sing, I can control them.”
You smiled once again, your voice like wind chimes in his ear.
“My quirk name- is Siren.”

which of your fics?
i got tagged by @bitchyreid​ @goldentournesol​ @prettyboy-reid​
thank you for tagging me! sorry its taken me a minute 
Which of your fics... 
...got a better reaction than you expected? 
flick flick burn actually.. i was trying to blow through this request (i know im sorry!!!!) because i wanted to get through to another one and.... something good just came out of it. it was my first big fic and everyone really seemed to love it. it put me in kind of a ‘praise’ high for a couple of days so that was nice :D
..did you think would get a bigger reaction/audience than it got? 
all of my series really.. but remember me? definetly because it was actually really fun to write and i just figured it would be one of those adventures people would stay interested in... but it was a very slow start so 
...is your funniest? 
i think its probably we dont wake up enough just because its super short and sweet and its about not wanting to get up in the morning sooo... 
...is your darkest or angstiest? 
umm... probably hand me the heartbreak because its really sad... and it definetly took some of my energy out of my soul for a while.. 
oh! oh! i forgot about these memories live with me ! that one is so sad, its so very sad, but I LOVE THE WAY I WROTE IT OH MY GOSH i completely forgot about it! 
..is your absolute favorite? 
i think right now its this vast empty space because i really like the way i wrote it, and i kinda forgot about it for a while so i’m reintroducing myself to it! or these memories live with me if my previous answer tells you anything.. 
..is your least favorite? 
pretty much any of my recents.. definetly sweet sweet relief because i just feel like its so dumb and i totally messed up that request big time. 
...was the easiest to write? 
probably one two three peek because it was super short and i knew what was going to happen and there was nothing big i had to include so... very nice and simple 
....was the hardest to write? 
literally any of the fics based off of episodes.. it takes me so long to figure out what actually happened in the episode not just based off my memory.. i look up scripts online just so i know how everyone is feeling. but tear me apart was suuuper hard because i had to add in a whole different plot including the one that was already in there and phew.. im stressed just thinking about it 
...has your favorite lines/ exhange/ paragraph... 
hmm... i write a lot of overwhelming things... but i definetly think this section from flick flick burn illistrates the turmoil in her head.. and really my entire style 
“She paused. She paused because she didn’t know what to say, didn’t understand why it hurt her so much to talk to him, didn’t understand why she couldn’t just say the words, why it was so difficult for her to tell him, she didn’t understand why she was talking at all.
She didn’t understand why she was burning alive.
She heard Spencer say something behind her. Something that sounded like encouragement to go on. She didn’t realize that he was standing in front of her, she didn’t look up to see him, he was standing in front of her, staring at her, wondering what was wrong.
“You were looking at her,” flick “looking at her.” higher “like you look.” and “like you look at me.” higher.
The fire had reached her brain, had scarred her entire body, had devoured her whole, had left her with no mercy.
Burn, baby, burn.”
...have you reread the most? 
probably flick flick burn (again) because i was obsessed with it when it came out and there was so many typos i had to go fix.. and thats the one i shared with my family (with some edits) 
...would you recommend to someone reading your work for the first time? 
definetly flick flick burn.. and maybe one two three peek because those fics show two completely different sides of me and give a big insight into how i like to write 
...are you most proud of? 
actually.. space. its not my best fic but because that was my first ever fic on here. and immedietly everyone loved it. it was an amazing confidence boost and really led me back into writing which is something i’d been struggling with for years. so yeah. starting to write again was a huge milestone, and im so thankful to everyone who convinced me to continue  
and ive got no one to tag :D

ok fuck wow. “heaven ‘n’ back” is literally my favourite thing i’ve written so far, and it was completely on a whim
also this got way longer than i intended it to, hope ya dont mind
i wanted to write something cute for lifetane because ever since i started shipping it enough to write for it, i’ve been writing heavy angst. then everything changed when i heard the first released song of chase atlantic’s “phases” album askjajsbja
here’s where my influence came from: the album’s cover is very heavily pink, and hearing the song “her” played over the picture of that pretty album cover? honest to god inspired this fic. i’m not kidding
i didn’t link the song to lifetane at first (now i do) but just. the image of them, somewhere high up, with a pink background, stuck in my mind for ages and ages until i just forced myself to write it. around the same time, the music vid came out for “her” and at the end of it they teased “heaven and back” and here, ladies and gents, is where the title comes from. neither song has anything to do with the fic lyric-wise. it’s purely because of the Aesthetic
but alright here’s the good bits: why is it written the way it is? well let’s start with the colours. lots of pinks, i made sure when posting it that it sounded exactly the way i envisioned it. i heavily associate lifeline with pink, and i thought since i’m making everything else pink, the emphasis is going to be pink. all the pink lines (”pretty pink, like the sky as it set” and “pink was starting to become his new favourite colour”) where not planned but the second i thought of them i was like “oh that’s brilliant”. the whole emphasis on pink and how it reminds octavio of ajay is just 👌 exactly what i wanted this fic to convey. everything is pink becus his whole world has become pink thanks to her
as for the heaven comparisons? well once i got the title down, i realised i need to somehow link it with the fic. this also however tied in with my personal headcanon that octavio grew up in a family that was predominantly catholic christian. i don’t think he really believes it anymore though, however once something has been drilled into your whole life, it’s kinda hard to get out of your head. plus, when you meet someone as kind and beautiful as ajay it’s hard not to make angel comparisons uwu
“he didn’t know what Heaven felt like but this was probably a damn good comparison” is probably my biggest galaxy brain moment ever. i thought of this line and just had to fit it in. i like that it implies that octavio wants to go to heaven but isnt sure if he will, but hey at least he’s got this moment instead right? idk it’s just pretty neat of me, not to brag
i just rlly like the way it all flows together. i like how i got octane’s characterization fairly close (if i say so myself) to canon (the whole craving adrenaline and no fear of death thing) even with having little to work off (this was written a while ago). i made it real sappy cus i wanted it to be real sappy. i feel like octavio’s a dork and doesnt know what to do with himself half the time she flirts with him.
phew, so that’s all i’ve got. sorry that i rambled so much but i probably wont get this opportunity again so i’m gonna let it all out now lmao. hope this didn’t bore you lol

gingerjab replied to your post “ANYWAY. The petition/prayer circle for Michael Trevino to be cast as...”
I’m forever an asshole obsessed with fire/ice ships so Thunderbird or Sunfire, fuck the inhumans one off and St. John. Also, Rahul Kohli as Neal Shaara/Thunderbird/Agni. Also I’m sposed to be asleep so ignore if this is a shit idea.
For the record, I actually kinda like the Inhuman guy, cuz I mean, its not his fault he’s part of a trash franchise. I think it probably helps that I’ve only ever read one issue with him, so as to render it absolutely impossible for his writing to piss me off. I like to just close my eyes and pretend he’s a mutant. Y’know. Like I do with Kamala!
Who is obviously a mutant.
(And like.....let’s be real. The dude is a pyrokinetic with a demon form, the codename INFERNO, and his REAL name is DANTE Pertuz. DANTE. INFERNO. Like, that’s the on-the-nose-fuck-your-subtlety-we-came-here-to-be-pretentious-as-fuck-with-our-literary-references-look-how-dignified-it-makes-our-character balls to the wall character concept I am HERE for. I’m like OH HAI I SEE WHAT U DID THAR. And they’re like “oh yeah? You got it? Hahaha, we were worried nobody would, phew, good job tho. Totally adds to the character right? Pretty clever of us.” And then I’d be like Hahahaha no, not even a little bit, but ‘scool, I like him anyway cuz I’m easy like that. I put out for puns.” And then they’d be like awwwww, dammit, we worked so hard on that. And I’d be like....well, that doesn’t speak highly of your abilities, I mean it was a super obvious joke. And then I stopped making up conversations with hypothetical people in my head.)
Also, in defense of comic book St. John Allerdyce and absolutely NO OTHER VERSIONS EVER because agreed, they all suck....
Comic book St. John is a snarky Australian asshole who in between acts of mutant mass destruction, has a side career as a successful romance novelist under a pen name.
(I’m not even joking. Comic book St. John, in canon, writes romance novels in his spare time as a hobby. LOLOLOL c’mon, how is that not a great character beat for a supervillain slash occasional kinda-if-you-squint-superhero).
Anyway.
I too am also trash for fire/ice ships because SCREW SUBTLETY, WE SHIP THEMATICALLY. But like, its gotta be the RIGHT fire/ice ship. I weirdly have standards with my fire/ice ships? Probably just because I’m obsessed with Bobby Drake but whatever, who cares, how is that relevant.
I mean, OBVIOUSLY, you have your proto-fire/ice ship, the one, the original, the Word I came out of the womb prepared to preach and ship and like, spread to the masses....Bobby Drake/Johnny Storm. Because like. They are elemental dorks whose competitiveness is only matched by their dumbness, how can you not love them, I DEFY YOU TO SAY.
I’m kinda meh on Iceman/Pyro, because like, original comic book Pyro and Bobby never even interacted I think? And in cartoons they’re always totally different generations/age groups, and in the movies they’re like....boring and stale and not even all that attractive and also did I mention boring, omg no offense to whomever wrote them, but I tried reading Bobby/Pyro movie fanfic years ago because like, that’s the only movie Bobby fic there is, unless you want to read about him being an asshole to Rogue and/or cheating with Kitty and just generally driving Rogue into the arms of the much (much much much much, like ewww) older Logan or Gambit. Because srsly, so appealing. So obviously, I caved and tried reading Bobby/Pyro fics because like, they had the word ‘Bobby’ in them, and the bar is too low in my X-Men fic reading habits. And omg I fell asleep. I just. It was all just the standard m/m cookie cutter generic ‘good boy plus bad boy uwu yaoi-zowey’ bleh starring two not at all deeply written or well-acted meh-looking white dudes, and just. Why.
But that’s what I mean when I say I’m wary of fire/ice ships, because sometimes with powered characters like, authors think oh hey, LOOK ONE IS FIRE AND ONE IS ICE, THIS TOTALLY COUNTS AS THEM HAVING OPPOSITES ATTRACT PERSONALITIES AND THUS I DONT NEED TO GIVE THEM A PERSONALITY, RIGHT? Like. They’re just very boring and unimaginative in execution, just because they expect the basic premise of fire and ice/’obvious opposites attract, obviously’ to do all the work for them.
(Katey if you’re reading this I’m super for sure not talking about YOUR superpowered romances, because you are wonderful and GOOD at writing and imaginative, and thus none of this applies to you. Requisite disclaimer.)
So, when they did this random Bobby/’New Pyro Dude like where did he even come from I still dont know’ hook-up, I was prepared to like, yawn endlessly, because I figured it would be more boring imaginationless ‘ooh look what an obvious pair they are and yet still praise me for how clever I am for pairing them’ crap. 
And I was absolutely right!
(But I mean, it was written by Marc Guggenheim, the odds of it sucking were totally in my favor. Betting against them being well-written under his pen might feasibly be construed as cheating. Whatever).
And also, the art did them ZERO favors, like I know they’re both generic blond dudes in their twenties, but I LITERALLY COULD NOT TELL WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE WHICH in any of the panels that they were like, in bed together or dressing or talking or literally anything until they started using their powers to fight bad guys. It was soooooooo bad. Like the art just manifested every ‘look at the white gay date his mirror reflection lol what is variety even’ cliche and beat you over the head with it.
(Also Bobby is supposed to have brown hair, which at least would’ve helped a LITTLE bit. Meh. Still was gonna suck because like, nobody had any intention of WRITING them together, like, developing their characters and laying the groundwork for a possible relationship. It was just ‘oh look, the fire and ice dude got drunk at a wedding and hooked up, cool deal, now on with the story.’)
Anyway, the ONLY redeeming potential for a Bobby/Simon relationship in my opinion is ENTIRELY due to a fic I read with them. Its probably the only fic written about Simon ever, lmfao, so its not like the writer’s characterization of him has any competition among either canon or other fans’ renditions of him. But it was pretty well written, I actually liked their portrayal of Bobby, which I’m SUPER picky about in fanfics, and they actually invested time in developing Simon and his POV and giving him an actual personality and shit, that wasn’t half bad. So if Simon was written like that in the comics and their relationship progressed in similar ways, I could feasibly be on board with them.
But it won’t, so I’m not. Meh. Anyway.
I actually really REALLY like both Shiro AND Neal, with the caveat that I hate Neal’s stupid offensive-ass codename, I know Claremont only named him Thunderbird because he introduced him in an anniversary issue that was supposed to be a call-back to the original Giant Size lineup, and he needed a stand-in for John Proudstar, but like....wtf Claremont, just use your brain and save Neal to introduce a whole issue later and stick Jamie in John’s place the way everyone else does. He literally went by Thunderbird in the comics already in his Hellion days, which YOU wrote, so why the fuck did you feel the need to be stupidly offensive and act like Native American people and traditions are interchangeable with those of a guy from India? Ugh he’s so....gah.
Anyway. So I actually like both Shiro and Neal, though pretty much only when people other than Claremont are writing them, lololol. Which is admittedly...rare. Because of all his pet characters, they’re both at the top of the list of ones nobody else has any interest in touching. Bizarrely, my favorite run involving Shiro was when he was randomly shoe-horned into that Alpha Flight relaunch in the late 90s, that only lasted a couple years? Dunno if you know what I’m talking about, the team with Radius, Flex, Murmur, Heather as Vindicator and Mac was a robot or some weird shit.
I have no real thoughts on either of them with Bobby though, for a fire and ice pairing. Tbh I can’t really see Bobby/Shiro like, at ALL lmfao. For one, Shiro’s always felt written as though he’s a good ten years older than Bobby at least. Like they’re not really compatible dialogue-wise lol. And he’s pretty much never had any patience for Bobby in the comics, which has a lot to do with most of their interactions being written by Claremont himself, and Claremont infamously haaaaaaates Bobby’s character and trashes him any chance he gets, aka the few times editorial makes him actually use Bobby in a script. But I also think even under other writers, like....Shiro honestly is not the type to have any patience for Bobby’s antics or brand of humor, like.....he’s like JP but without the superficial crush JP used in canon to view Bobby’s idiosyncrasies as endearing instead of migraine inducing. I don’t think any readers would buy someone of JP or Shiro’s personality-type crushing on Bobby twice, lololol.
I DO however kinda like the idea of Neal/Bobby? If someone ever actually brought Neal back and gave him a new codename and stuck him on a team with Bobby? They’ve also barely interacted in canon, and the only time I can think of, Neal was super rude and dismissive of Bobby, because like, Claremont was writing it of course, so it made total sense for him to have the dude who’s literally been an X-Man for two issues talk down to the X-Man of several decades like the latter had no clue what he was doing, lol. Oops, still slightly salty there. 
But honestly, I doubt anyone who didn’t have hyperfixation fueled grudges on a fictional fave’s behalf would ever even remember that one canon interaction, and tbh Neal’s pretty much a blank slate character wise. His only defining traits from what little he’s been used are that he’s fairly young, in his early to mid-twenties, from a wealthy family, a little full of himself but in a ‘really wants to impress people and prove himself’ kinda way instead of an overly entitled ‘i genuinely believe I am superior to all you buffoons’ kinda way. And he was always endearingly enthusiastic and eager about new stuff he encountered from being with the X-Men.
(He was also randomly obsessed with Psylocke, but I truly think Claremont was like, well I’m just gonna write him like I would Warren Worthington because why not. So yeah, obvsly he’s super obsessed with Betsy. Duh.)
Anyway - I would like someone to do something interesting with Neal, and I think his and Bobby’s chemistry has a lot of potential and they could bounce off each other well. 
Also, I like Rahul, but I was randomly fancasting some of the more obscure X-Men awhile back for Reasons (I forget what they were tbh, but I’m sure I had them. I usually do). I came across this Indian actor named Karan Tacker and was like ohhhhhhh he totally looks like he could be Neal Shaara.
I mean, I’ve literally never seen him act, so who knows what his acting is like, but since we’ve established Neal’s character is essentially whatever the person to actually use him next wants it to be, I don’t think that’s a big deal lol.
So this is totally superficially based casting, like I think this guy looks and ‘feels’ the way Neal’s typically been drawn and the kinda vibe he gives off.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, incidentally, having absolutely nothing to do with anything, let alone my selection process, by pure coincidence the dude just so happens to have abs for daaaaaaays.
Tumblr media
But I mean. Like I said, that is neither here nor there. Obviously.
Of no relevance whatsoever. I didn’t even notice, tbh. Don’t even know who hijacked my body and ghost wrote these last few sentences, quick, call an exorcist.
....oh noes, is this one of the consequences of being an ‘anti’? IS THIS MY COMEUPPANCE? *flees*
