Tumblr media
December 17,2019
You are now 18.Finally.You don't remember how much you waited to be an adult,losing every touch with your parents.You wanted to be an independent woman and you finally are.So,you decided to take a trip to Busan,where your favorite bookshop was.
You stand in front of the entrance,scanning the small subway to see an empty seat.Sitting down,you look at your surroundings,trying to see any familiar face,which you thank you don't.
Next to you was a man your age,silently reading a book.Looking at the cover longer than you've realized,you see the man staring now at you,his eyes wide.
"Is that 'Six of crows' by Leigh Bardugo?",you can't help but let the words out of your mouth.Realizing,you turn away from his gaze,muttering a low 'sorry'.
"You read her books too?".A faint chuckle comes out of his mouth that makes your cheeks go red.You turn to face him,your hands quickly opening your bag to show him your book.And so,you two talked,even stopped at the bookshop together.The unusual comfort you feel while talking to him fills your stomach with butterflies and grows your ears red.
Park Jongseong is his name but his English name is Jay. His favorite color is green and he likes fashion and cooking,just like you.He enjoys autumn and reading as much as you do. He’s allergic to cats—which is a shame considering the amount of cat hair over your clothes and bag that you discreetly try to brush off while he's explaining to you how much he hates mint chocolate ice cream.
You were always one to never believe in soulmates, or finding someone that perfectly fit next to you,like the final piece to your complicated puzzle.But with him,you finally believed in love at the first sight.
Eventually,those little dates and talking sessions turned into a night where he finally asked you to be his girlfriend,to which you said yes.
Tumblr media
November 14,2023
And just like every other couple,you had your small arguments,even for the stupidest reasons.The usual reason for your fights was the fact that he puts his work above you.But each time you tried to argue with him,he kissed you,the events ending with you stripping each other's clothes,either making love or just him taking his anger out on your body.
Even now,you feel like starting an argument since your boyfriend isn't home,celebrating your anniversary with you.You prepared the dinner,dressed up,but he didn't bother to show up,probably buried deep in his work.
Walking over to the couch,you open the TV in an attempt to kill the silence in your house,and kill your bad mood.But to your surprise,the bad mood didn't want to leave as you watched the scene playing on the screen.
"Right now we'll send the correspondence to our newest reporter,Park Jongseong."The lady on the screen talked as the camera moved to another place,showing your boyfriend's lovely face,doing his beloved job.
"Of course."
Throwing the remote on the couch,you walk back to the table and place the stuff back to their place,changing into normal clothes.
Tumblr media
Your body jolts when you hear the front door opening,revealing Jay placing his coat on the hanger and taking out his shoes.
"Where have you been?"
"Work."
Work.Of course.
Your mind wanders,and you can't help but ask him every question that goes through your mind."Why didn't you check your phone?Have you been drinking?You smell like alcohol."
"Oh my fucking god ___,can you fucking stop?"He rushes past you,walking straight to the fridge to get himself a bottle of water,trying to sober himself up.You stood there,feeling your throat itch so you closed your eyes for a brief moment,trying to stop yourself from crying.
You make your way to the kitchen,parting your lips to apologize only for him to interrupt you again."Don't bother,I'm too tired to keep up with you."You close your mouth and walk closer to him,placing a hand on his shoulder,which he quickly pushes away,muttering a long 'can you stop being annoying?'.
"I guess I wasn't that annoying in bed last night,right?"
"Yeah,because your mouth wasn't bitching like it is now."He has the audacity to laugh at your shocked face,and you gasp at his use of words.
"What is your problem?Why are you being such an asshole?".He scoffs,his voice echoing in your head as he speaks.
"Well if I'm 'such an asshole'",he rambles on with finger quotes "then that makes you a needy bitch,huh?"
You stare at him for some solid minutes,complete silence taking over the kitchen as you slowly walk away from him,turning to your room."Fine,then I guess I won't be your problem anymore."
With your voice cracking,you make your way to your room.Once he notices your voice changing,he sighs,pinching the bridge of his nose with his fingers.
Tumblr media
He quietly enters the bedroom a while later, changing his work clothes and slipping in the covers, attempting to put his arm around your waist, but you simply drag your arm back, grabbing a pillow and a spare sheet to sleep on the couch.
“Where are you going?” He whispers groggily.
"The couch".Your tone is cold and stern,and you pray your voice won't break down in the middle of your sentence.
And that's all it took him for his heart to break.He gets out of the bed,wrapping his fingers around your wrist when you reach the door,but you only shake his hand away,walking further.He exhales through his nose and walks after you but his lips part in shock when he sees the event in front of him.Your body sitting on a chair at the dining table,your head hung low as you sobbed uncontrollably,broken whimpers escaping your mouth.
"Baby,no,please."
He crouched down,burying his face in your knees as he took your hands in his,making you sob harder.
"I don't want to do this anymore."Raising his head from your knees,he shakes his head,quickly disagreeing with you and you only nod,too tired to even argue with him.He lets go of your hands and you both get up,his body towering over yours.
You bring your hand to wipe your salty tears as you turn,your back now facing him."Do you know that today is our anniversary?And that I dressed up and made dinner only for you to come home and treat me like shit?"You quickly turn back,your bloodshot red eyes facing him and you see his eyes widen,the realization hitting him.
"Fuck,it is today?Baby,I'm so sorry."
"Don't bother."
When you turn your heel to leave he grabs your waist,pulling you in his chest while you hit him repeatedly,broken sounds coming from your lips.Your body hurt,feeling yourself fall to your knees in his arms.
"I don't want to do this anymore",you say while raising your head from his shoulder,meeting his soft eyes while looking down to his quivering lip.
A hand comes to touch your face,cupping your cheek as the pad of his finger wipes away the tears that are now cascading down.His soft lips press on yours,your tears wetting his cheeks as well as one his hands move from your face to your hair.
When the kiss started to get rougher you backed away,shaking your head desperately.
"This is what I meant!We can't keep doing this!We fight and then we fuck and I don't want to do this anymore."
"Jay,please."
The following words that left his mouth made your heart churn,but those were the only words you wanted to hear at that moment.
"If you want to end this here then I'll pack my stuff and leave."
"Leave."
Tumblr media
So you watched as he stuffed his clothes in his small baggage,each time apologizing,but you only kept your head down,embarrassment plastered on your face.
Settling his luggage down,you got up from the small armchair and studied his face,regret washing over it.
His hands cupped your cheeks for the last time,pressing a kiss on your forehead.His body turned to the door,taking the bag in his hand and leaving while looking at you again.
"Let's try this again one day."

royally fucked up
J.D. gets another chance. It's Sherwood in September, and Veronica is smiling at him again. This time, he'll do anything not to fuck it up.
status: completed / translated: in progress
!!!new the forest (warnings!!! tags are reeeally spoilers, but the fic includes disturbing content)
Veronica ran down the stairs, hurried to the school bus - and suddenly woke up on the road in a completely silent forest. There doesn't seem to be a soul around... but someone's predatory gaze is fixed on her back. (references to The path)
status: in progress / translated: in progress
let's have some fun
Three years ago, J.D. went back to hell, but he comes back for the same reason: to make Veronica say his name three times. But something's changed.
status: in progress / translated: in progress
stay at the very edge and way he prays
Before she says no, Veronica sees Bud humiliate J.D. And it makes her change her mind and try one more time to change something for him. And that leads to a promise that will be broken.
(tw: bdsm)
status: completed / translated: completed
Veronica Sawyer decides to die
The bomb exploded. They both survived, but at a high price… Time has passed, and Veronica Sawyer finds comfort in imagining that she is gone. Her peace of mind is shattered by the doorbell.
status: completed / translated: completed
St. Calvin told me not to worry about you
They're broken up, but still need each other. She has the keys to his apartment, he wants her back. And there are rules between them that neither of them has ever learned to follow. (there is a new male character, but honestly, he's just one of the plot obstacles in this story).
status: in progress / translated: in progress
!!!new lavender
Just a scene from married life and problems that they have to deal with through conversation ( long-married JD and Ronnie)
SHORT STORIES (complited)
dearly beloved
jdonica one shots (If you want, you can give me prompts. i sometimes write them long, but i try to write all of them. except with agnst sometimes i skip them)
other way
Veronica Sawyer hurts herself to deal with her emotions, and a new guy notices. She's scared, but he just wants to talk to her ...and maybe help.
syndrome - the story of cotard syndrome
who is she - he meets her on a crowded subway and misses her… and meets her again
first of thousands - their paths cross because of a car accident
insomnia - he just can't sleep (partially refers to St. Calvin's au)
best gift ever - happy married life
we're locked in, right? - fate brings them together in a locked elevator
trace of a touch - J.D. is long gone from her life, but his every touch keeps to burn on her skin. No one else can, until one day…
let's get out of here - a wedding story in which J.D. steals a bride from his own wedding
turn on the radio and the braided bracelet - au!childhood friends, where J.D. is hopelessly in love with Veronica. or not so hopeless?
about a girl - Nick has been in love with Veronica since they were kids. but it seems he should have confessed earlier, because the new kid is about to steal her away from him
peek-a-boo - very hot zombie-boy and a pretty smart Ronnie? who just can't resist his charm (pure au with a twist)
white oleander - au!hanahaki where Ronnie has to choose between Chandler and J.D.
pick me up - a wasted Ronnie needs to be picked up from the bar, and even though they broke up, J.D. is the only one who can do it.
happy anniversary - nobody has visited J.D.'s grave for five years
what a night - J.D. climbed into her window that night, before the bombs and the petition.
a few more minutes and there is no cure - the bomb didn't explode, and it seems that J.D. completely failed // he returns to Veronica's life years later
an act of mercy - J.D. was dead in the explosion, but that night a familiar voice is heard on Veronica's phone
like burnt brownies and play with loaded dice - the story of Nick Sawyer and Jesse Dean

The Batman (2022) isn't perfect by any means, but it is still a phenomenal film and one of the best pieces of Bat-media in recent memory.
Firstly, the aesthetic. Seemingly small but an incredibly important part. BTAS was broody, '89 was gothic, Forever was campy, TDK was... bad. And TB I think finds a real sweet spot in between vibes. It's dark, serious, it's got a technological noir, and yet still has vibrancy and color and (the key to my heart) neon.
One scene, you'll be sitting in an abandoned tunnel with shadows and muddy colors, the next you'll be surrounded by police under white lights, and the next you'll be in a night club with LEDs of every color you can think.
The fights. This film has some of the best Batman fights I've ever seen period. Really just action in general. The night club, the hallway, the finale. It's not like TDK where every fight is slow, precise, methodical, and honestly boring. Each fight or chase here is energetic and entertaining. The choreography is excellent, the stakes are legitimately high, and the settings are always unique.
The night club is crowded and overwhelming, with people swinging, shouting, and grabbing at Bats who aren't even apart of the fight. His skills and equipment save his life multiple times, whether it's block a bullet with a precise pipe throw or survive a shotgun blast with his armor. When he finally grabs Penguin you feel as overwhelmed and animalistic as he does.
The precinct escape is tight and tense. From the punch to the jump, every second makes you feel the absolute abominable stress of trying to escape a building like this. Officers pouring out of every room, bullets whizzing by and beaming off his suit. Merely seconds to get the flight suit on before they come pouring out to the roof. We experience the fall with him as his nerves spike, all culminating in a quick second decision that ends with him crashing into the side of the road.
Gotham. The beloved city feels full here. Subways are crowded, streets are packed. The crime feels real. Vandals, gang violence, thieves, assassins, crime families. It's not just militants and killers. We see the systemic issues in place that cause these. We see the feelings and social strains that make people do this. It's like you're taking a peak into another world with context and history you don't know but understand. It feels right.
The characterizations. I'm not a huge fan of the whole "Bruce Wayne is the mask, Batman is the real you" thing inflamed by TDK. And I really don't like "the Waynes were corrupt and did bad things, even for good reasons".
I think there's so much more to say about the two very different, very real sides to Bruce's personality. The one that comes out as billionaire playboy philanthropist, and the one that comes out as a violent and vengeful demon. Both who are willing to suffer for their causes. And I think there's so much more when the Waynes die from a mugging. That the crime is so bad it took the highest. That it could take anyone at any time, even the beloved elite.
However it does something right that most other Bat-media fails at. It makes Batman a symbol of hope. It demonstrates a growth in himself. That he can do more good to inspire the people than to instill fear in them.
Pandaredd made a good video on this, but in Crisis On Two Earths, Bats' opposite is represented as the ultimate nihilist. This means that at his core, Batman is really the ultimate optimist. And that makes sense. You don't put on a suit and fight crime, you don't try to create resources to help people, you don't befriend and reform your own Rogues gallery unless you believe you can change something. That all the work you do, all the suffering you experience will be worth it when you get to know the world healed.
And that's something The Batman understands. Batman started as a symbol of fear. So that every criminal hesitates at an alley. Panics at a shadow. But he became something else. A symbol of optimism. So that people can walk the streets at night. That they can get the help they need. That they can look into the sky with hope.

Before I begin, I just wanted to say that I love your blog and how much you deeply care for Joel and Ellie <3 You manage to put a lot of my interpretations/thoughts into words when I struggle to do so myself as well as offering little analyses on certain moments between them that I never noticed before, both of which are super neat :]
I'm sorry if you already answered a question like this before, but I was wondering what your favourite/some of your favourite moment(s)/scene(s) between our beloveds Joel and Ellie were? Mine are a collective of Joel comforting Ellie at Silver Lake, Ellie trying to save Joel from the flooded subway tunnel, and Joel taking Ellie out of the hospital. Thank you! 🙌🏽🫶🏽💗
First of all, I love you, sweetie. That is such a lovely message. You are the best. I love when people come message me about how much they love Ellie and Joel. It always makes me so happy to realize that people see how much I adore them.
And second, are we only talking about Part 1's favorite moments? Because if not, then my numb. 1 will always be the space capsule scene. I love it with all my heart, every aspect of it. (more detailed describtion of what I love about this scene is coming in one of my scene analysis posts, so I'll leave it just like this for now). But it's definitely my number one moment.
But if I should only speak of Part 1, my number 1 is when Ellie takes over Joel when he gets injured, and without hesitation she changes roles with him, and now she's not the protected and he's the protector anymore. Now she's the protector, and he's the protected and she's so fucking brave. There are men coming at her from each side, and she shoots everyone out of pure fear of them hurting Joel some more, and she gets injured herself (when the guy hits her with the pipe), but she still gets up as if nothing happened, helps him up, and even jokes about the singing thing. She's just so fucking brave in this scene. I remember slowly falling for Ellie in many of the previous moments, but this moment made me fall hard.
Number 2 moment would definitely be when Ellie is taking care of Joel in the basement. The whole section is just perfect. Showing us how far they've come and how this girl already cares about that man. She does everything she can to stop the bleeding, stitch him up, and drag him all the way down there. She goes hunting and scavenging for food, managing to stand up to two strangers—two men that she knows nothing about—without flinching once. Quite the contrary, she makes them bring the medicine she needs. She risks her life to lead the hunters away when they are about to find her hideout, just so they won't find Joel. I mean, she's just 14; what she does here is incredible.
Number 3 is definitely the moment after she kills David and Joel comes and comforts her. He embraces her, pulls her closer, and the way he holds the back of her head as he keeps talking to her, telling her that he's there because that's what the girl needs now. She needs love and the affirmation of someone being there for her. And he's giving it to her for the very first time, and it's just…
And of course, there are the two scenes where she proves just how much she's dedicated to Joel. The one where she jumps down the bridge into the waters, even though she can't swim, and the bus scene at the end of the game where she tries to get Joel out and nearly drowns herself.
It's just too much. I love their every moment.

I wish more people would watch the original original Ossan's Love, the 2016 TV film that the series was based on! It's still my favorite version (I haven't finished the HK remake because I forgot DFKGDFG so I can't rank it) because it has all of the humor and heart that the franchise is beloved for without some of the frankly soul-crushingly awkward plotlines that the drama inserted that I had to delete from my brain afterwards. (I love the 2018 series but only because certain parts don't exist for me thanks)
I also hope ppl understand just how much Ossan's Love changed the JP live action BL scene and why it gets the number of remakes and adaptations that it has. There was no precedent for it to be as wildly successful as it was. JP BL was niche even among manga readers, and live action BL's just... weren't taken seriously, you were happy to get what you had, cardboard kisses be damned, and you were lucky if it was translated.
But Ossan's Love pushed their marketing way beyond the typical audience. I still remember how shook I was the first time I saw a subway train with an Ossan's Love wrap on it. I could not fathom a BL ad of that size existing outside of Ikebukuro.
I know some people don't care for the humor of the series and feel like it's even making fun of gay ppl "lol his boss is a creep", but there's a lot of warmth and love at its heart. The 2016 version features my favorite rejection scene out of anything ever because of how respectful and genuine Haruta is towards his boss' feelings. The humor was a Trojan horse that allowed Ossan's Love to explode and lay the foundation for shows like Cherry Magic and Old Fashion Cupcake to exist, and the number of JP live action BLs produced since Ossan's Love outnumbers the number made in the previous fifty years. It's a cash cow and they can milk it to death for all I care if it means we get a larger variety of JP BL productions.
If the series isn't to your taste that's fine, but please pay respects.
Anyways I know the original is hard to find so I'm just gonna SHOVE IT HERE IT'S LESS THAN 50 MINS OKAY IT'S OLD AT THIS POINT BUT IT'S STILL CUTE
Also I'm curious to know what other ppl's rankings are for the diff versions for those who have watched more than one! For me it's:
Ossan's Love (2016)
Ossan's Love in the Sky
Ossan's Love (2018)
Ossan's Love: Love or Death

hello hello beloved human🖤 a thousand thanks to you for sending these in
answers below cut:
---
5. how many wips do you have? what fandoms/pairings are they for?
currently, i'm rocking with three wips: 2 for the windverse (one of them with a sprinkle of martin x wind) and 1 for it lives within (abel x mc; i'm so sorry to this beauty that's been shelved- the loa phase is working its magic on me rn)
7. post a snippet from a wip
bc you asked about enid earlier, it's only fair that you see what i've been cooking up for her. here's the opening to 'the tale of enid'
Park & Davis; Manhattan, New York; one year ago… Every day was like clockwork. Up at 6:00 AM. Out at 7:00 AM. On the A train by 7:30 AM, iced chai in hand.  There were several stories to be told crammed inside one subway car. Epics of wannabe musicians desperate for someone to listen to their latest EP. Chronicles of broke college students rushing through assignments splayed over their laps. Legends of wide-eyed tourists ready to explore the big city. And sitting just by the sliding doors was the greatest of them all- the tale of Enid Mendoza, attorney at law.  The official workday didn’t start for another hour, which gave her just enough time to prepare for yet another deposition. The client: Randall Guzman, a 49 year old Hispanic male and owner of Guzman’s Jewelry. Over $40,000 worth of product was stolen from his shop last month, making him the latest victim of a string of armed robberies centered in the Bronx area. Not Enid’s usual clientele, but a favor is a favor.
11. do you write scenes in order, or do you jump around?
i'm going in order; there are times where i wish i could jump to a scene that i want to write about at that moment, but the thing between my ears is adamant that i lay out some proper groundwork first 😭
at most- i'll jot down a line/dialogue that i know i'll want to include and then start from the beginning of whatever fic i'm working on
ask game

Autism & Guillermo del Toro
While some light research of "Guillermo del Toro autism" doesn't get many results, other than complaints and praise for The Shape of Water, it is apparent that many of his characters are autistic.
Aurora || Cronos (1993)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aurora is near-mute, but has a lot of agency despite this. She isn't afraid to kill a bug or help Jesus defeat De la Guardia. In fact, she's the main heroine of our story, despite her silence. She shows intense feelings, especially of love for her grandfather, shown in scenes such as where she reaveals shes ripped the head off her beloved teddy bear to put the Cronos device inside. She's incredibly smart for her age and very capable, but I believe her (maybe not optional, but definitely not permanent) silence is vindictive of her autism. I cannot figure out what her special interest would be, though.
Chuy || Mimic (1997)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chuy is another one of Guillermo del Toro's strong children. Shown first playing spoons incredibly skillfully and crafting creatures out of wire, Chuy has unique interests. He can tell the exact type of shoe down to the size because of his grandfather, and he has the ability to perfectly mimic the Judas' cry. He's nearly silent but not always, and he seems unaware of the rules of the world, leaving his home and entering the subways seemingly unaware of the danger. Upon watching a man get sucked into a gutter, he barely reacts. One pivotal scene showing his autism would have to be when he's trapped in the elevator shaft and has a meltdown. He also speaks in a somewhat unique manner. His special interests are obviously playing spoons and shoes.
Ofelia || Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ofelia is yes another child character who shows a lot of agency, going against what practically everyone tells her to follow her own path. But she's also very bookish, obsessed with her fairytales so much she believes anything the fantastic tells her. She crawls through the mud and talks back to adults, keeping a somewhat quiet demeanor otherwise. I believe her special interest is fairtales.
Newt || Pacific Rim (2013)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not a child, but worth mentioning anyways, is Newt. He's obsessed with Kaiju, to the point of drifting with one multiple times (and eventually.. living with one?). He speaks fast and erratically, he knows every indexical fact about Kaiju, and he's obviously insanely smart. He's, however, balanced by his childlike wonder at everything. His love for kaiju is, of course, his special interest.
Tumblr media
Hope you enjoyed my analysis! I'm missing plenty of characters simply because I haven't seen his full repertoire yet! But as an autistic person, I love to find it in everything else!

back at it again with the 3am drawings, this time with a proper sketch~
special shoutout to all of the monster fucker requests bc i could not for the life of me get that scene where kudari pins darling down out of my headspace, so i totally had to draw out my interpretation of it. (O//O
originally, i was gonna add more detail into the tunnel/background but the piece was kinda already getting pretty cluttered, rip lol. there was a lot more teeth and eyes. but im glad I didn't. i think it adds more to the disorientation effect that darling was probably experiencing to have everything in their peripheral be all wonky.
hope you all like it 💕
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
hcbcbzvc I am frothing at the mouth-
Applesauce You Beautiful, Talented, Wonderful Person I wanna buy you flowers (friendship flowers)-
Tumblr media
It looks AMAZING! I am sorry I didn't post this earlier I have had a Day(tm) BUT this beautiful art has removed my stress and frustration and hopefully it will for everyone else!
Everybody stare at the Applesauce Art it's God Tier I love it-
He does look disorienting (in a good way- like I 100% get the vibes you were going for here and I mean you did a good job executing the idea!) and the tunnel background looks really good too and you're a really good artist I'm so fricking happy you drew this- And ya ya sometimes with drawing (and a lotta things) less can be more but I think it looks really good!
Eldritch Emmet pinning you down in the subway my beloved 💕
(Also I am hopin you are doing well and find like 200 bucks on the sidewalk next time u go out)

Hostage Situation
[I had originally posted this on cupcakestreet's blog, but I keep finding myself looking back at it. I want to play around with this scenario somehow.]
CW:
Blood
Injuries
Violence
Angst Below the cut. Watch your head.
The airwaves we're hijacked. Screens across the city stuttered and shifted to a visage of the emblem of the notorious criminal organization, Team Rocket. The crimson R only remained a few moments before a grisly scene was revealed.
Subway Boss Ingo, beloved battle master of the battle subway, sat bound to a chair. His head hung limply before a menacing jab from a nearby bisharp cause his gaze to rise weakly.
His face was littered with bruises and abrasions. His left eye was a grotesque purple and swollen shut. Blood trickled from a broken nose and a busted lip. One silver eye stared into the camera, still showing a flame that was swiftly dying.
"I am Ingo. I am a subway boss." He began. His voice was gravelly and his words slurred slightly. "I have been taken by the organization known as Team Rocket."
Ingo took a deep breath. "In exchange for my release, they have violently coerced me--"
A fist quickly came from off camera, striking Ingo across the face. A splash of blood was seen on impact.
"Stick to the script, Old Man!"
Ingo coughed and spit blood from his mouth before nodding solemnly. "My apologies…" His gaze returned to the camera.
"In exchange for my release, they had provided me with a list of their requests and kindly asked me to recite them for them. Their requests are thus…"
Each line was spoken as clearly as he could manage. The assault from earlier was quickly beginning to darken and swell along his jaw.
"Thus concludes the lists of requests. Team Rocket thanks you for your cooperat--"
Ingo's eye went wide as he struggled against his binds. "Don't give them anything! These are terrible criminals! They have no intention of releasing me!"
The bisharp from earlier quickly brought it's bladed limb to Ingo's throat. Ingo froze, eye panicked and tearing up as he painted heavily. "You won't get away with this…"
A voice from off camera laughed. "Yeah, yeah. That's what they all say…"
The screen went dark.

The airwaves we're hijacked. Screens across the city stuttered and shifted to a visage of the emblem of the notorious criminal organization, Team Rocket. The crimson R only remained a few moments before a grisly scene was revealed.
Subway Boss Ingo, beloved battle master of the battle subway, sat bound to a chair. His head hung limply before a menacing jab from a nearby bisharp cause his gaze to rise weakly.
His face was littered with bruises and abrasions. His left eye was a grotesque purple and swollen shut. Blood trickled from a broken nose and a busted lip. One silver eye stared into the camera, still showing a flame that was swiftly dying.
"I am Ingo. I am a subway boss." He began. His voice was gravelly and his words slurred slightly. "I have been taken by the organization known as Team Rocket."
Ingo took a deep breath. "In exchange for my release, they have violently coerced me--"
A fist quickly came from off camera, striking Ingo across the face. A splash of blood was seen on impact.
"Stick to the script, Old Man!"
Ingo coughed and spit blood from his mouth before nodding solemnly. "My apologies…" His gaze returned to the camera.
"In exchange for my release, they had provided me with a list of their requests and kindly asked me to recite them for them. Their requests are thus…"
Each line was spoken as clearly as he could manage. The assault from earlier was quickly beginning to darken and swell along his jaw.
"Thus concludes the lists of requests. Team Rocket thanks you for your cooperat--"
Ingo's eye went wide as he struggled against his binds. "Don't give them anything! These are terrible criminals! They have no intention of releasing me!"
The bisharp from earlier quickly brought it's bladed limb to Ingo's throat. Ingo froze, eye panicked and tearing up as he painted heavily. "You won't get away with this…"
A voice from off camera laughed. "Yeah, yeah. That's what they all say…"
The screen went dark.

A little something fell out of me.

I'm stunned. I'm frightened even! But also knowing Gateau is absolutely ready to go ape on some grunts makes me feel bad for those chumps! If you've laid a finger on his love the beast comes out of him and he will destroy those in front of him. I refer to this past post to what will happen when enraged.

*rubs my silly little hands together* it's angsty fluff time baby!!!
👏😏
The day the undead walked the earth would certainly be one for the record books- if the world ever managed to recover from its devastating plague, that is.
The Subway Bosses, with their quick thinking, converted Gear Station into a safe haven for survivors they came across during their routine patrols.
Pokemon seemed unaffected by the virus, thank Arceus. Although, the discovery was a double edged sword. Trainers that succumb to the virus inevitably attacked their once beloved partners in a blind rage, but never consumed them as they had with humans.
The twin conductors lived day-to-day in dread, fearing that you had become a victim to the undead as you'd never answer their calls- or heaven forbid that you'd been turned.
Other survivors expressed empathy to the brothers about their own lost loved ones. Emmet would harshly correct them; you were out there, alive and safe! You would come back to them, no doubt about it. Ingo did not feel the same.
Oh, how he prayed for your safe return, to hear your voice over the phone when you called him to inform them of your well-being. But alas, days turned to weeks, and weeks turned to months and so on. Only their Pokémon and the fantasy of reuniting with you fueled their engines.
In the midst of their sweep for survivors on the surface, accompanied by a handful of other survivors from their safe haven along with their Pokémon, the group failed to retreat for a horde of undead in time.
Many were tackled to the ground and ripped apart as their partners struggled to defend them. The Subway Bosses anticipated their lives were about to come to an end, but were stunned silent witnessing a different figure run at lightning speeds and maul fellow zombies that got too close to the men.
Haxorus and Garbodor readied themselves for a fight, moving in front of their trainers protectively. That attack, however, never came.
Many rotting bodies laid motionless on the concrete, the fast, undead figure from before halting its actions in order to tilt its head and stare at the unnerved twins. Tears immediately sprung to their mercury eyes- though its face lacked an eye, and the left side of its cheek was torn off, showing the inside of its mouth, they recognized the zombie.
You. It was you.
Their hearts shattered at the sight of your disheveled form. On one hand, they were thrilled to see you again. On the other hand... they wept, imagining you by your lonesome, becoming an undead's prey, then having no choice but to slowly watch yourself die and change into one of those... things.
And now- you stood before your lovers, your one eye glaring right through their souls.
Without warning, you lunged at the brothers, dominant hand ready to strike. They screwed their eyes shut, not wishing their final moments alive to see you in such a way.
Your animalistic screech mixed with a similar sounding growl spooked them. Emmet dared to crack one eye open to assess the situation. He glanced behind him and gasped.
You hadn't been aiming for him or his brother, but instead a zombie that crept up behind them while they were distracted. You violently ripped off its limbs, snatched up a hunting knife a survivor dropped, then stabbed the blade through the undead's skull, killing it.
Ingo spectated the scene. Why were you attacking your own kind? He despised himself for associating your likeness to such vile creatures, regardless if you were one of them now.
You continued to shred any zombie in sight to pieces, never opting to harm the Subway Bosses. Once the area was clear of danger, thanks to your efforts(?), the silver haired men cautiously approached you.
Emmet was the first to call you by name, seeing you respond so quickly by snapping your head in his direction gave him mixed emotions. Ingo wondered aloud if you remembered them, speaking to you as if you were still human.
They inched closer, yet did so carefully, acting like a human in the presence of a wild animal. But again, you never made any moves indicating hostility towards them. Somehow, you were still conscious, not as completely overtaken by the virus as most victims they encountered.
They subsequently returned to Gear Station with you following suit, as they deemed you passive in regards to humans and Pokemon alike.
Haxorus and Garbodor insisted you walk behind them, separating you from their trainers in case you suddenly decided to pounce. You, along with aforementioned pokemon, were instructed to wait outside the safe haven, to which you obeyed.
From then on, you became Gear Station's 'guard zombie' as you tore apart any unwanted guests that shambled into the underground. You didn't eat, didn't drink, didn't sleep. Just stood or sat near Emmet and Ingo.
Your partners protected you just as you protected them, defending you from humans that insisted you were a threat that must be disposed of. Sometimes, they'd cling to you, uncaring of the blood that stained your ratty clothes or missing sections of flesh, sobbing and apologizing profusely for not being able to save you, how they're terrible lovers.
They always looked at you with an emotion you couldn't understand. Whenever they held you close and whispered bittersweet things, you would try to copy them- wrapping your arms around their bodies in response. The first time you did this resulted in hysterics, the twins' anguished crying echoing down the tunnels.
You would pat or rub the top of their heads, hold their hands, lean against them, or hug them. Anything that could effectively wipe the grim expression off their faces.
Emmet and Ingo swore to keep you safe this time around, hoping for a cure to end this madness once and for all. They vowed to change you back, even if it cost them their lives.
*lies weeping on the ground*
i am hurting but it's so good, this is so so good. you write so good i love this so much. are you thinking of continuing? you've made a perfect ending to either leave as is or continue with more! whichever you decide, thank you for this wonderfulness. i love it so so much.
~Renee (*still weeping*)

If I can break the rules and do a twofer: Vaccinate Your Casey and urban magic turtles! If not, dealer's choice.
answered Vaccinate Your Casey here
Urban Magic my beloved~ This is based on/inspired by the Urban Magic and Magical Anonymous series by Kate Griffin; my favorite books ever, they influenced a lot of my writing. (If you've read "Mortal Shell", it's got a hefty dose of that influence in it.)
This is a collection of little scenes depicting how the turtles and others interact with the world through the lens of urban magic. Lots of metaphors and abstract concepts, humanity breathing life into things simply because they interact with it. Life is magic and life is everywhere, so magic is everywhere. How things like mystic powers and Ninpo would change because of the setting. Just fun stuff.
So here's a little bit of that:
The world runs on self-imposed rules.
Leonardo knows this. And he also knows how to break those rules. You have to understand the rules before you can use them to your advantage, after all.
It’s a gut instinct, on some level. He’s learned how to find the edges of the spaces between objects and fold it open to cut the distance short. He finds the vibrating energy of people with places to be, that rush of cars speeding down the streets, the flow of the subway as it races to and fro and shortens the distance between here and there. He instinctively gathers it up and lets it pulse and burn down his veins, pours it into his gleaming blades to rend holes into the spaces between.
