A while ago I had a dream where there was a sudden outbreak of invisible poisonous snakes. The only way to know if there was one around was if you could see a trail indent in the carpet. If you got bit you'd either die, or become basically a zombie with snakes for arms. (Not invisible snakes just regular arm sized bright green snakes)
Covid was completely disregarded and it became the opposite, where now entire communities of people had to live together in one room where snakes couldn't get in and it was very chaotic.
Before I go sleep, heres an au thats been living rent free in my head since I rewatched Tournement of Elements
Y'know how after stealing the elemental powers of those who lost the tournement Chen sends them to the noodle factory to work as slaves for the forceeable future, what if he branded them with the Anacondrai mark to basically mark them as his. And when the cultists are transformed into Anacondrai, so too are the Elemental Masters that have been marked.
Kai, Jay, Lloyd, Neuro, Shade, Griffin and Paleman weren't marked, and Zane is a Nindroid, can't exactly tattoo a Nindroid.
They have to watch as Garmadon, Cole, Skylor and the other Elemental Masters are turned to Anacondrai.
Luckily the transformation isn't permanent and they all return back to normal once Chen and his cultists are cursed. Doesn't mean it wasn't a little bit traumatising.
Truthfully, you couldn't recall the series of events that had led you to this point: pushed up, against the rough bark of a tree, the wood scraping against your exposed breasts thanks to the way the Hashira now knelt behind you, licking and nipping at the back of your bare thighs, had torn your uniform shirt straight down the middle.
"I-Iguro-san, p-please," you whimpered as you felt his sinful tongue drag up the sensitive inside of your thigh. You squirmed beneath his stony grasp, eager to see his face, now that it was clear he'd removed his bandages in order to tease you between your legs, but a sharp press of his hand against the small of your back made you yelp.
"Stop squirming," The Serpent Pillar's voice was sharp, as were the prick of his teeth against the delicate skin of your inner thigh, so very close to where you desperately wanted his mouth. "Or I'll stop and leave you right here."
You bit down on your lip to suppress the high-pitched, keening mewl threatening to disturb the still, dark night as your lover's tongue flicked teasingly against your dampened slit. Below you, the Serpent Hashira groaned, the sound gravelly and deep as he pressed his mouth harder against your sensitive folds, that sinful tongue of his flicking out to teasingly circle your entrance.
You couldn't stop yourself from grinding down against his face, grateful at the way the tree bark scraped against your breasts, providing you with some stimulation you were desperate for, given how your lover's hands were busy either holding you hostage against the wood or kneading the flesh of your ass as his mouth worked you closer and closer to your climax.
Another breathy moan blew past your lips as Iguro dipped his tongue into your entrance, your hips unable to stop from rolling against him as you tried to fuck yourself on the slippery appendage.
"Shut up with the moaning, or we're gonna get caught," he hissed, sucking your clit between his teeth in warning.
The move had the opposite effect on you, however, and your knees began to shake as Iguro began to circle your sensitive bud with his fingers in time with the thrusts of his tongue.
"Obanai," you moaned, head falling back as you helplessly bucked against his mouth.
But the Serpent Pillar paused, mid-thrust into your cunt. Because of the way he'd pressed you up against the rough wood of the tree he now tongue-fucked you against, you couldn't see the way his eyes blew wide, or how his length stiffened in his uniform pants.
But you did feel the shaky inhale of his breath against your cunt, and it made you grin.
"Keep saying my name like that, and I'm not gonna be able to hold back," was Obanai's only warning before his fingers dug harshly back into the flesh of your ass, resolving to make you cum no fewer than three times on his tongue before he'd decide what to do with you next.
Perhaps, this night, he'd finally make you his; but only if you kept saying his name in that same, breathy moan.
List of Lupin III Part 2 Episodes (that I liked enough to make my partner watch them)
Part 2 of Lupin III has Many Episodes, but overall I found it fun and charming (in a dated kind of way). Please be aware that this is a very old show, and there are still instances of racism/sexism/etc in these episodes (though the worst have not made this list).
I have decided to share the whole list of episodes I noted down to make Partner watch with me as I have been devouring the show entire, much like a snek, but I have also bolded a couple of my Extra Favorite ones.
I cannot speak to the quality of the dub versions, as I have only watched with Japanese audio and English subtitles. I don't think Part 2 is a bad place to start if you want to get into Lupin. It is a very silly show full of shenanigans, which has been bringing me a great deal of joy over the winter.

If you only watch one episode of Part 2 -- make it 145/Wings of Death- Albatross, but if you are going to watch more than one episode for the love of the gods don't watch that one first it will set your standards much too high for the rest of the show.
edit to add: a number of these episodes after 98 can be found on youtube! And in fact youtube has much better subtitling on their subbed episodes than crunchyroll, so I recommend watching them there instead if possible.

Episode 50 of Hirogaru Sky! Pretty Cure~!
Spoilers, I guess...
-Ikuyo!
-One last time hearing this theme for the road...
-You've come such a long way from being an unusually athletic girl, huh Sora-chan?
-You've explored the surface world, battled monster after monster, made many unforgettable friends and memories along the way...
-And even when you wavered, you still kept your friends and family at the forefront of your mind.
-And uh... while I'm here, I might as well get my nitpicking outta the way.
-Uhhhhhh, I would've preferred if the villains all interacted with one another a lot more than they did, Captain Shalala's cool but a little underutilized, the supporting cast in general's just kinda... there a lot of the time...
-...that's it, really. I've gotten quite literally everything else I could've wanted from this season.
-Anyways, enough about me, FINAL BATTLE TIME WOOOOOO
-Spin that dangernoodle!
-You give a bad name to sneks everywhere.
-To you, dear Underg Generals... thank you!
-Not a form left to our names!
-OH FUCK INSERT
-This is everything
-One more time! For truth, justice, and a better tomorrow! Hirogaru Change~!
-Hirogaruuuuuuu
-Sekai Puuuuuuuuuuunch!
-"The only real power comes from inside, Skearhead! From courage, honor, and other things you wouldn't understand!"
-Precure! Majestic Halation!

-Hooooooly shit!
-Awwwww, Kaizerin...
-Adooooorable~!
-"Sorry. Comms filled atm."
-Peace and love for Skyland and Underg~!
-See, doesn't that feel nice?
-Hello, Captain Shalala! ...sorry I thought you were gonna pull a Nolan Grayson however many episodes ago.
-Beryberie... In another life, you'd have been one of my favorite Cures.
-Oh, the schoolmates too!
-...this is embarassing, but uh... I done forgot about you guys...
-D'aaaaawwww... Mashiron's gonna miss her husband~! Well, don't you worry.
-There's no such thing as goodbye forever, is there? Not when there's Transdimensional Technology~! Just uh... be careful not to accidentally unleash Weirdmageddon or something and we'll all be grand.
-God, it is so weird seeing Elle dwarf Tsubasa round the clock now.
-Never say that to me again.
-That's our town of Sorashido.
-...how very fortuitous of Sora to end up here, I just realized.
-Hmm.
-Our beloved Hero notebooks.
-Suppose we're gonna see you around, Granny Goodness. Er uh... Yoyo-san, sorry.
-My one regret is that I did not continue to lay down the Skyward Sword jokes, you'd have made a fantastic Impa.
-"I knew you were good kids the first time I saw you. :)"
-Hug your daughter, Mashiron.
-Auntie Ageha too~!
-Tsubasa-kun's got lunch...
-The Borb Sage...
-Oh???
-Yeaaaaaaah!
