ughhhh peter always being so oblivious. can’t even listen to his girlfriend when she’s right in front of him, practically begging him 😡 loved your most recent story 🩷🩷 (still can’t believe there’s finally a pink heart emoji)
was this supposed to be angsty? too bad, it's smutty.
*suggestive behavior and words, no real depictions of sex, sorry kiddos.
‘How do you tell someone you want them?’ No, no, wait… ‘How do you tell your boyfriend you want him?’ 
Wiki-how says to flirt with them, been there done that, message not received. 
Teen Vogue just wants to give you ways to say ‘I love you,’ you’ve tried that too, you just get a declaration back. 
Cosmopolitan says to be bold, ‘I want you inside of me,’ is a direct quote. Bold, sure. But with Peter? You’d think he’d collapse. 
On Quora someone took the bullet, ‘how do I let my boyfriend know I want him to touch me?’ Ah, there it was, someone had to have a good answer. A man in his forties says dirty talk, your nose wrinkles. A young mom says, ‘just like that!’ An anonymous reply said to initiate fist, touch them where you want to be touched, but you can’t exactly squeeze Peter’s boobs. 
You wonder if you told Ned he’d tell Peter, you can imagine that conversation. 
‘Bro, Y/N just told me she wants you to like… use her body as a wonderland.” 
“A what?” 
Yeah, not a good idea either. 
Even with a boyfriend, a super hot, charming, smart boyfriend, you were going to die a virgin. 
Every attempt has fallen short, no matter how close you think you are from him finally getting the hint. Last week you had him between your legs, wrapped tight around his hips as you grinded up towards him, mouths refusing to break. And then, right when he finally, finally, moved his hips with yours and you moaned he pulled away and rolled off of you. That quick too, talk about a cold shower. 
“Do you want me to show you how to do that thing now?” He was panting still, he looked over you flushed out and almost pulled himself back in, too dangerous, he had to use self control. Peter uses what strength he had to get off the bed, he’s already going to his computer, you didn’t get a choice, he chose for you, if he had asked you would’ve asked to ride his thigh. 
“I’d rather you show me what your hands could do,” you mumble under your breath, you want to scream into his pillow and then hump it, does he not feel how frustrated you are? Peter hears you, he gives a chuckle, “they can help you is what, come watch,” he pats his arm rest on the chair. 
You follow his instructions, still grumpy. “I’d rather they help me in a different way,” Peter flashes you a nervous smile, you make him lose his grip on reality. He makes sure you're watching as he clicks around, he’s giving you instruction but all you can think about is his hard thigh underneath you, his grip is tight around your waist, his palm that rests over your shirt radiates heat to the skin underneath. He’s driving you crazy. 
You can’t help it anymore, you have to be blunt, it will be awkward for a second but so, so worth it in the end. “Peter, I want to-” A squeeze, an apology when his phone rings. Only three people call him, Ned, May and you, seeing as you’re on his lap that leaves two options. 
“Hey, May. Oh yeah, no I don’t think so. Um, sure. Well, he didn’t say much but he did want, no, go ahead.” You look at the ceiling and curse, Peter’s thumb brushes your hip, he’s giving teasing touches and doesn’t even know it. “I dunno, hold on let me ask,” he pulls the phone from his ear, “baby?” You look at him, “staying for dinner?” You nod, he grins, “yeah she will… okay, yes ma’am, no problem. Okay, okay, okay, alright, okay, love you too, bye.” 
“Is she at the store?” 
“Yeah, think of anything you need?” 
He clicks at the screen, “yeah, condoms.” 
You jolt at his laugh, his chest pressed tight against your back, Peter snorts, “why would you need those?” 
You stay silent and instead look at the screen and wait for him to continue his lesson, the bubble of want simmering.
—-------------------------------------
“Are you okay?” 
Peter has to literally hold you back by your shoulders, he’s gasping for air, his curls frizzy and pulled around, his shirt unbuttoned three down from the top. You attacked him the second you got into his room, nearly throwing him onto the bed before straddling him and marking your territory. 
You had been at it for a half hour, everytime he tried to stop you’d follow his movements and continue, he had no idea how you were keeping your breath. The only time he remembers you pulling away was to tug your shirt over your head before you immediately unbuttoned his collar and kissed down his neck. 
“‘M great, are you?” you’re just as breathless as him. 
He nods, “‘M good.” 
You smile, “great!” Then go to meet his mouth, Peter turns his head at the last second, you connect with his jaw, you frown but accept any skin, you trail sideways and down, sucking at a spot near his collarbone. One hand grips your hip, one settles on your ribcage. He grunts and you skim your lips back to his mouth, he’s slower this time, like he’s trying to edge you down carefully, you don’t accept the change of rules and open into his mouth, he wont talk the bait. 
You try again, you swipe at his bottom lip, he stays closed. Frustrated you grind down on him, he buckles but refuses to open his own mouth, last resort you bite down on his lip. 
Peter pushes you off, “fuck, you’re insatiable.” 
You look down on him, “why won’t you make out with me?” 
His cheeks are pink, his lips are red and swollen, his pupils are blown out. 
“You’re killin me, smalls.” Peter’s hands come to a rest on his stomach, they rise and fall with his breaths, “no matter what I do you want more.” 
You nod enthusiastically, he’s starting to understand. 
“Yes, so yes. What can you give me?” 
His eyebrows furrow, he doesn’t know what you want. 
“I don’t… what do you want?” 
You grind down on his belt line, his hands shoot to your hips, this was new territory. You’ve just started to grind on him the past week and he still can’t fully process it, he’s never had a feeling like it before and he knows that he’s gonna get a hard on if you keep doing that, and that’s really new territory. 
“Baby,” he groans the word but it’s a warning. 
“This, can I have this?” You try to move again but his hold stops you, he’s using too much strength. 
Peter doesn’t want to rush you, not at all. But these last few weeks have been hard, you’ve been much more open with your words and touches and god it kills him. He’s been thinking about sex, how could he not with you all over him, but he needs to hold out strength for the both of you, and god damn if you don’t make that difficult. 
“If you keep doing that do you know what will happen?” 
Are you okay with this, is what he means, because if you go down this path there’s no coming back, it’s a whole new step, he’s okay with that but are you? 
You tilt your head at him, “I’ll cum?” 
Peter exhales through his nose harshly, his voice pinchy, “jesus christ.” 
“Is it okay if I take my bra off?” Your fingers were already behind your back, he’s been lucky enough to see them a few times but not in a situation like this one where he could get to inspect them and enjoy it. “If you want, but you don’t-” he stops speaking when you toss your bra to the ground. 
“Wanna take your pants off?” 
He looks at you, he’s fully clothed almost while you’re now sitting on top of him with only panties on, how did he get here? No pants means no more barriers, you wanted to feel him, all of him, when you dry humped him. 
“Do you want my pants off?” 
How does he not get it? You’re more than half naked on his lap begging for his touch, what did he think you wanted, a milkshake? 
“Peter, where’s your mind at?” 
“With what?” 
You rub your eyes, frustration would do no good here. “I need to know where you’re at with this, cause i’ve tried everything to make it known you make me really fucking horny.” His eyes widened, it was like he had a revelation of ‘girls can be horny too?’ and yeah, he did know that they could but he never imagined he could make someone horny, even if it was his girlfriend. And maybe he did understand a little of what you wanted but he also thought you were joking, that you were hinting at a hookup teasingly but, no you were serious. 
“I do?” 
Well that didn’t sound good, did he not share the same feelings? 
“I… Peter, do I even turn you on?”
The room spins, you’re on your back in a second, Peter holds your forearms to the bed. You couldn’t even take a breath in, that’s how quick he pinned you. He didn’t want you to think, for even a second, you didn’t turn him on. 
“Don’t ever ask that again, you turn me on more than you could even begin to imagine.” 
You giggle, “oh, do I? How much?” 
He kisses your cheek, “cold shower every time you leave.” 
“Then how come I never feel you get hard?” 
Peter takes his turn kissing down your neck, he nibbles a matching mark to his on your collarbone. “Threw you off before you could.” 
You hum when he nuzzles into your neck, he places a kiss to your cheek, you look at him over you. 
“Does that mean you’ll take off your pants?” 
He laughs, “yeah, baby. I’ll take off my pants.” 
Peter sits back to pull his shirt off, you take a moment to appreciate his body. You always feel like you don’t compliment him enough, “you’re pretty,” the words fall from your lips and he grins shyly, his hands working at pants button, he’s about to shimmy them off but you stop him. 
“Wait!” 
Peter’s hands freeze, you nod at his hands, “can I do it?” 
His hands fall away and you reach forward, tension thick the second you start to undress him. You never knew how heavy a moment could be until you had your hands in your boyfriend's waistline tugging them down, knowing it was so you could sit pretty on top of him and rock on his lap. 
You rope a leg over his waist and take mount, already pressing into him further than you’ve ever been, you give a teasing roll of your hips, your eyes shoot open and Peter throws his head back with a groan. 
You whisper at the same time, minds blown. “Woah.”

!"are we still friends?" kiss w/ inumaki!

pairing// toge inumaki x gn!reader
word count// 1.8k
contents// jujutsu high is a college, inumaki communicates through sticky notes, inumaki uses his cursed technique to get what he wants, ooc inumaki ?
notes// these kissing prompts r too good not to use sorry not sorry! also yes him using his cursed technique was inspired by that one anon... also any information i say about a character's likes? or like favorite food, i get from jjk fandom wiki dont come for me if its not right ok baiiii <3
Tumblr media
You and Inumaki are best friends— or were. Right now, he’s not quite sure where the two of you stand considering how you’ve been acting towards him lately. He and, quite frankly, anyone with eyes could see how uninterested you were acting toward him. You avoided his touch, kept conversations short, avoided eye contact, hell, you tried to avoid him all together—you were ignoring him. It wasn’t like you were doing it on purpose, though! …Okay, you definitely were, but you also definitely had a good reason to. The whole reason this started was because of last week.
You and Inumaki are best friends; you’d obviously take any chance you could to hang out with him, and you thought that was the only reason why—because he’s your best friend—but that day you quickly learned that was not the case. You and Inumaki sat under a tree in a random park. When the weather was nice and your schedules aligned, the two of you would often have picnics together. On these picnics, you two had this unspoken agreement of bringing each other food; he’d bring you what you liked or what he thought you’d like, and you’d do the same for him. You watch him intently as he places all the food he got for you near you, and you smile when he’s finished and is staring at you patiently, waiting for you to do the same.
You ignore his gaze and what he wants, instead tilting your head at him and asking, “What’s your favorite food?”
Inumaki’s face drops, and a pout replaces his previous faint smile as he pulls out a sticky note pad and scribbles, “Are you joking?”
You commit to the bit. “No, I’m serious! What’s your favorite food?”
You watch him fervently rip that note off to write on another one, “Wait, you seriously don’t know?”
The way he’s staring at you makes you relent. “Just humor me for a second Inumaki?” you plead with a soft smile, reassuring him that it’ll be worth it.
He stares at you curiously before nodding and writing, “Tuna mayo onigiri.”
You hum with a nod. “Right, thought so,” you say. “Guess what I have!”
Inumaki’s eyes light up as he excitedly taps his finger against the words he just wrote. His reaction doesn’t take you by surprise; you’ve seen him react like this plenty of times before. It’s what you love about him—how excited and happy he gets about things and isn’t afraid to show it—but something is different. The sun is shining on his face perfectly; it gleams off his eyes, and the way the wind slowly blows past and the trees and flowers behind him sway softly with his hair has you completely mesmerized. So mesmerized, in fact, that Inumaki had to practically shove the notepad in your face for you to even realize you were staring.
You shake your head as if shaking yourself out of your trance, silently acknowledging to yourself that it was odd, but you digress. “Sorry! But yes, I do have that for you!”
He drops the notepad and holds out his hand expectingly, and you giggle as you place the onigiri in his hand. He bows his head slightly at you to say thank you before he digs in, and you smile warmly at him.
“I’ve been trying to get it for you the past few picnics, but they were always out,” you say, frowning. “But today I went early, and they actually had some!”
He acknowledges you with a glance, and your heart skips a beat just from the brief moment that your eyes meet. You try to ignore it, though. You try to ignore how you can’t keep your eyes off him, the butterflies in your stomach, and how warm you feel. Maybe you’re getting sick? Yeah, that must be it. You don’t know how long you got distracted by simply admiring him, but by the time you came back to reality, he was done with his food and writing something on his sticky notes.
He holds up the notepad, asking, “Are you okay?”
You scoff slightly. “Of course I’m okay.”
He frowns at you before scribbling, “You haven’t touched any of your food.”
You look down at the food before returning your gaze to him and awkwardly smiling. “Ah yeah, just not all that hungry, Inumaki...”
You watch him study your face quickly before writing, "Are you sick?” He doesn't give you time to reply before placing the back of his hand on your forehead, and if you weren't already flustered before, you most definitely are now. You're too shocked by his actions to say anything, but it doesn’t matter when he's already scribbling a new sentence. “You feel warm.”
“I'm sure it's nothing, Inumaki,” you try to reassure.
He hands you a sticky note that says, “We should get you back to your dorm and stop for medicine on the way,” before beginning to pack up the left-over food.
You roll your eyes and place your hand over his to stop him, and the way he looks up at you has your brain going blank, so much so that he has to shoot you a questionable look in order for you to realize what you were doing.
You quickly remove your hand from his and clear your throat. “It’s fine, I promise. I probably just have to sleep it off, okay?”
Inumaki doesn't bother writing anything down and instead just stares at you blankly.
“If I'm still ‘sick’ by tomorrow, we can go get medicine, okay?”
He nods, ultimately accepting that answer, but he wishes he didn't because tomorrow never came. You didn't die, obviously, but you might as well have. You started ignoring him the next day, and the day after that, and the day after that, and... you get the point.
Inumaki has no idea what he did; he tried to ‘talk’ to you the best he could. He’d leave you sticky notes, and you would hardly acknowledge them or him. Did he do something wrong? He knows most people found him intimidating at first because of his cursed technique and were hesitant around him, but you never were, so why are you acting like it now? Maybe he came off too strongly; maybe you got suffocated being his only friend—well, not his only friend, but his closest friend; maybe you just had enough. Inumaki told himself he was just going to let whatever happens happen, but he couldn’t. So he said he'd find you after class and corner you if he really had to; you’re already ignoring him; what's the worst that could happen after that? But he couldn’t wait till after class tomorrow; he couldn't sleep; he just laid in bed anxiously, which is why he now finds himself standing at your door. He doesn’t think twice about knocking; he wants—no, he needs—to know why you're ignoring him.
You're surprised to see him there, and his twisted-up face makes your heart drop. You're not sure if he's worried, angry, or both.
“Inumaki, hey.” You’re afraid to look at him for too long, fearful that he’ll look back and figure out your feelings for him, so you leave the door open and start walking away. “Come in.”
He does so, shutting the door behind him. You’re a few feet away from him, so he tries to close the distance between you two, only for you to take the same number of steps back. Inumaki frowns and pulls out his sticky notes.
“Are we still friends?”
No, because you’d rather be more—if it isn't obvious by now, the entire reason you’ve been ignoring him is because you've finally realized how deeply in love with him you are.
You avoid his gaze and zero in on your floor instead, nervously laughing. “Of course, Inumaki, why wouldn't we be?”
You hear him scribble something down before the sticky pad shows up in your field of vision. “You’ve been ignoring me.”
You push his hand out of your vision. "No, I haven't.”
You hear more scribbling before one of his hands grabs your chin and lifts your head up to face him. Your eyes fluttered at the action, and you hope to god he didn't notice. He shakes the notepad in his other hand to draw your attention to it. “Yes, you have.”
You can't lie to him when it's like he's staring straight into your soul. “Okay, fine, maybe.”
Though you wish you did when his face drops and he slowly lets go of your jaw to write, “Why?”
You take a step back, and he takes one forward. “It doesn’t matter.”
He frowns and shakes his notepad slightly as if to emphasize his point, “Yes, it does.”
“It doesn't because I'm gonna stop ignoring you, okay?”
“But why were you ignoring me?” he scribbles frantically.
You sigh. “Just drop it, Inumaki, please?”
He shakes his head.
“Inumaki, just forget about it, and we can go back to normal, okay?”
He narrows his eyes at you and writes, “Just tell me! I won't get mad; I just want to know why.”
“Inumaki, seriously drop it,” you say as you turn to walk away, but you don't get far before you hear a clatter of Inumaki’s things hitting the floor, and he grabs your wrist, pulling you into him. He has your wrist to his chest, and your other hand is instinctively pressing against him, while his other hand is on your waist. You grow flustered by how you two are body-to-body, with no space to be found between the two of you, and you look at him wide-eyed, both of your breathing becoming heavier with each passing second. You're about to push yourself off of him or tell him to let go of you, but any thought of doing something vanishes the minute you see him start to open his mouth.
“Tell me,” he says softly yet firmly.
You can't even attempt to fight against his command as the words "I like you" pour out of your mouth against your will.
The minute the words leave your mouth, you go wide-eyed in shock from your confession, and from how he used his technique on you, he’s equally as wide-eyed. You try to yank your wrist free from his hold, but he has an iron grip on you no matter how hard you struggle.
You begin to murmur nervously, your voice trembling with embarrassment, "Inumaki-"
But your sentence is quickly cut short when he leans in. He hesitates for a moment before just going for it and kissing you. You don't kiss back at first in shock, but once you grasp what's going on, you quickly melt into the kiss, practically turning into liquid with the way your legs try to give out on you. You quickly tangle your free hand in his hair; he releases his grip on your wrist and places that hand on your waist as well, while you cradle his face with your newly freed hand. You two stand there kissing and holding each other for what seems like forever before he finally pulls away, both of you nearly panting.
“So, uh, does this mean we’re not friends or-“

Tumblr media
The thing about Caladan, you had come to learn, is that no matter where you were in the palace you could always hear the ocean. The crash of waves against the cliff below lulled you to sleep every night since your marriage to Duke Leto about two months ago. Sixty days, of which the Duke had only visited your bedchamber twice. The rest he spent, you assumed, in his chambers with Lady Jessica. 
In fact, you had barely seen him other than your weekly dinners since the wedding. The dinners were silent affairs, you on one end of the long formal dining table and the Duke on the other. Conversation extended no further than pleasantries. You didn’t mind too much — a political marriage like yours wasn’t meant to inspire affection and since the Duke had his concubine and his heir, you were only there to solidify the alliance between Caladan and your home planet, Calypso-9. 
Today, you’d been summoned to his office to discuss yesterday’s incident. 
The incident in which he’d found you underneath his Swordmaster Duncan Idaho in the training room. Half-naked. Writhing and crying in pleasure while Duncan pummeled your cervix with his impressive cock. It had been months since you’d been intimate with someone, and during your self-defense training Duncan’s touches while he corrected your form along with the smell of his sweat and endorphins from the exercise had proven to be too much. You’d given in to your baser instincts, and fuck, did it feel good.
Leto hadn’t said anything, only caught your attention with a loud clear of his throat. When he saw your and Duncan’s eyes on him, all he did was about-face and walk out of the room. 
He maintained the same stoic expression now. His dark eyes bore into yours as he stroked his beard. You had noticed how large his hands were during your wedding ceremony, and you remembered how they felt on you while he dispassionately consummated your union that night. All you could hear were the waves crashing. 
“I think we’re both aware of why I called you here,” he finally said, breaking the silence. 
“You found me fucking Duncan. I apologize if you were offended, my Lord, but I’m not sure why you called me here. Were you offended? Jealous?” You honestly didn’t know why he would want to hash this out between you unless he was going to scold you for being so indiscreet, which you supposed was deserved. 
“What if I was?” He asked, gaze softening before he continued without waiting for your answer, “Even though you and I both know I have no right to be. Our marriage is simply a political arrangement and I have Jessica and Paul while you left your homeworld to come here and be ignored by the husband you never wanted in the first place.” 
Gobsmacked. That was the only way you could describe yourself as you picked your jaw up off the floor. To say you hadn’t expected candor of this level was an understatement.
“I…Apologies, my Lord, but-” 
“Leto.”
“Pardon?”
“You are my wife, there’s no need for formalities. Call me Leto.”
You held back a scoff, turning it into a light sigh instead. “Since this is the second longest conversation we’ve ever had, you’ll forgive my hesitation with familiarities, but alright. Leto,” he nodded gratefully, so you continued, “I don’t fully understand your meaning.” 
“What I mean is I am angry about what I saw yesterday but not for the reasons you may think. I’m not upset with you because I understand that I am what drove you into the arms of my Swordmaster. I am angry with myself for neglecting you so cruelly since our wedding and I promise to do better by you. Perhaps not to Duncan’s extent, but-” 
You burst out laughing, which caused his brows to knit together in confusion. His large hands folded in front of him on his desk as you tried to get yourself under control. 
“I’m - I’m sorry,” you said, waving a hand in front of you, “I don’t mean to be laughing, I swear, but…is that all it would’ve taken to get your attention?” 
“Well, no, but-” 
“To think all I had to do was fuck someone else…I would’ve gotten your attention weeks ago.” 
“You’ve…been wanting my attention?”
This time you let your scoff out, “Of course! When my father told me he’d found me a husband I expected some old, ugly lord with at least two dead wives and no heirs. You cannot imagine the relief I felt when we met and you were none of those things.” 
“I’m not not old,” he chuckled, ducking his head.  
“Oh, pish, you’re barely forty, and don’t look it.” 
He looked up at you from under his regal brow and you felt butterflies stirring in your chest. “And you are one of the most beautiful women who has ever stepped foot on Caladan.” 
You couldn’t help the blush that rose in your cheeks, “Are you flirting with me, Leto?” 
“Perhaps. You are my wife after all,” he smirked, standing from behind his desk and coming around it, offering his arm to you. “Would you like to walk with me? A proper tour of the grounds?” 
You accepted, resting your hand in the crook of his arm and subtly stroking his inner forearm. “And maybe we can stop in the training room?” 
His smirk widened into a smile and you were enchanted at the sight. “Whatever my wife desires.”

8:34pm
You gather your belongings as the clock passes eight-thirty. Every Saturday, you take an extra class with your professor along with some other students at your college campus. Usually, class was dimissed at eight twenty, but your professor thought it would be sweet for the class to listen to his ten-minute advice on the lesson, much to everyone's demise.
Everyone was tired, either hungry, eager to go home, or both. For you, you were exhausted. Sometimes you wonder why you chose to have extra class; maybe it was your high-achieving mind, though you were already sick studying your ass off during the day. You guess it was less tiring in the evening; that would be ironic to say aloud.
For the last few weeks, news has been going around about multiple vandalisms of properties by an unknown animal. Considering New York, it wouldn't be surprising, but it's been getting concerning lately. Multiple people were also attacked and injured, you didn't heard much else besides that.
You have to admit, your eyes always traveled to the dark corners of every street you pass whenever you walk back home. Your heart races whenever the slightest noise is heard in the dark streets. Luckily, you got a safeguard to protect yourself with pepper spray, and a taser Sam gifted you.
Speaking of your girlfriend, she had been unusually distant recently, but you assume it was just her working two jobs and having therapy at the end of the day. You would understand if she's tired too, but she's also been acting anxious, brushing off whenever you'd invite her to your apartment or avoiding your gaze and presence whenever you two were near.
Of course, you didn't question it. She's tired, probably just worried about the news, and you try to comfort her, but again, she brushes it off. You sigh at the thought, standing up from your seat to exit the class before you hear your professor call out, reminding you what could go wrong.
"You kids be careful and walk back home safely!"
─────────── ☆ ───────────
You reach for your apartment keys, unlocking your door and stepping inside, noticing how it was cold inside. You didn't forget to turn off the AC, you remember it clearly, so why was it so cold inside?
Cautiously, you closed the door gently behind you, not wanting to alert any possible intruders. Slowly you stepped in taking a peek around the corner, the living room coming into view. The AC wasn't on but rather the window was, which would explain the cold air.
You step silently into the living room, place your bag on the couch, and strode over to close the window. You pause and take a look at the night and flashing cars in the streets outside before closing the window.
The lights were still off so you turned them back on, the kitchen and hallway were lit. You frowned when you turned them on, the kitchen was trashed. You felt the hair on the back of your neck stand up as you start to suspect for the worse. Biting your bottom lip nervously as your eyes scan the messy kitchen.
All of the cabinets were opened, some of the cabinet doors were scratched, and the marks were ginormous claws that made you feel anxious and confused. The floor was littered with broken plates and utensils, but something that made you feel the most uneasy was the smudges of blood.
You gulped as you felt your body go stiff, you see the smudges of blood trail towards the hallway to your bedroom. Anxiously, you grab a butcher knife that was dropped on the ground and with caution, you walk towards your bedroom which had its door wide open. The more steps you took, the sound of heaving breathing got louder but it didn't belong to you. Someone was breathing heavily in the room, you peek through the door to see a shadowy figure crouched beside your window, the moonlight reflecting against the figure, whimpering in pain.
You hesitantly marched closer and instantly recognized who the intruder was. It was Sam.
With a small gasp, you put the weapon down dropping your guard to crouch next to the brunette. "Sam! You--what happened?" you asked frantically as you touched her shoulder, she doesn't seem to respond but you turn to look at her face and see blood. Apparent blood smudges on her mouth and neck, and her eyes, those beautiful eyes that were formerly dark brown were now piercing maroon red.
She faced you, finally looking up as she stared through your soul making you sweat. With this sight, anybody else would scream or run away in fear but you didn't because it was Sam, someone you care for and loved even in whatever state she was in.
You contemplated on what to do, Sam snaps out of her trance and groans in pain clutching her stomach. Your eyes linger and see a gash on her abdomen, immediately you grab her up gently and dragged her to the kitchen. "C'mon hun" you mutter quietly.
She follows you behind or rather lets you lead her. You sat her down on the floor against the counter before you search the cabinet for a medkit. You crouch down to her level, pulling her ripped shirt to fully see her wound, see the bloody gash on her abdomen, and pressed a cloth on it. She lets out a small grunt with furrowed brows as she breathes heavily whilst staring at you as you try to care for her injury.
"Sam, tell me why the hell are you hurt? Why didn't you go to the hospital? Most of all, why did you not call me?!" you throw a variety of questions at her worryingly while aiding her.
She stayed silent and that made you look up at her, your eyes meeting hers again, but they weren't red anymore. She looked disheveled with her appearance, her shirt was ripped and almost torn off, her hair was a bit messy and her dark brown eyes pierced through your eyes.
"I...I got attacked...." she replied hesitantly, you got even more worried.
"By what?" you asked, you had already bandaged her wound to stop the bleeding temporarily but she still needed professional help "You know what, that doesn't matter right now, you need to go to the hospital I'll--" As you were about to get up, Sam's hand snatched your wrist tightly, you looked at her surprised as saw that her pupils were a sharp shape.
"No." She said firmly, her tone sounding grim, her hand squeezing your wrist tight that you thought it was gonna leave a bruise.
You were about to argue but Sam lets go of your wrist when she yelled painfully as she gripped her own arms as if something was gonna rip inside of her, her body tremble while she let out pained cries, you swore her body was growing bigger.
Your body froze, and you lean back as you watch her body grew, the sound of her skin ripping while her cries of pain started to sound more animalistic. "Please...don't come near me....." she lets out between her pained noises, you start to crawl back slowly but you collided against the wall.
You only watched in fear, feeling too scared to move while you watch how dark fur appeared on her, her ears became sharper until they matched the same as a wolf, and her teeth became sharper and canine-like as her body grew along with tearing the rest of her clothing completely. Your breathing became ragged as your eyes widen, your Sam, turned into this beast. It looked much like a wolf, with black fur, sharp teeth that could rip you to shreds, and those red eyes.
Your body trembled and you managed to let out a word "Sam.." you whisper in a meek tone. Her head snapped up at your voice, her canine teeth gritted against each other, and she growled loudly at you which increases your fear more.
She leaped closer, her giant claws gripping the walls at the side of your head while she lets out a roar at you, you clenched your eyes shut and turn your head while tears began to form. Her face was close to yours, she growled lowly but eventually pull back, her hostile demeanor disappeared and she only gazed at you.
Out of reflex, you swung the taser you were holding anxiously the whole time since she started to transform, at her chest making her let out an aggravated yell, she retreated quickly, whimpering in pain, and fleed by jumping through the window breaking the glass, along with pieces of the walls due to her large figure.
The taser dropped to your side, and your breathing became more controlled as you tried to calm down. Hurriedly, you walk to the broken window to see through, thinking if Sam was there. Your eyes lingered outside not seeing her at all, you cursed under your breath and retreated back to grab your phone from your pocket to dial Tara.
You paced back and forward, biting your nail nervously waiting for Tara to pick up. When she did, you wasted no time.
"Tara, something happened with your sister."

Omg hi, ily for doing this
And I love your blog banner
May I request a Dottore thing, please? The beloved pookie
So:
What if fluff to the point that reader gains a vision? (Gn of course) (any element you want)
Or/as well as
The reader is also beloved by the segments too? Like what if Dottore gets jealous (not in an angst way), that you’re not giving him attention like you do with the segments?
“Is someone jealous because im not giving them enough attention?”
“No 😾” (he is)
grumpy doctor
take as much time as you need and stay safe 💙
have some choccy milk
Tumblr media
I thank thee kindly for the choccy milk :]
A/N: I was STRUGGLING writing this- I’m new to genshin so I don’t know much about this guy yet, I had to look at his wiki lmao
Please enjoy! Reader is G/N :))))
Dottore had been busy lately, trying to make a delusion that wouldn’t harm you. As a result it has left you touch-starved and craving affection. So, what’s the next best thing? His clones of course!
However, the more time you spent with a clone of his the more irritated he got. He’s not jealous!! How could The Doctor himself get jealous of something that’s literally a clone of himself!?
…He is. He is very much jealous of those clones. He’d never admit it of course, he’s too proud for that. Instead, once he’s done with his work for the day; he’ll pull you close, alone in your shared room.
This man will never admit to what he is doing rn. He will silently pout while you play with his hair.
If you ever bring up him being jealous he’ll threaten to bite you lmao
We love our feral old man <3 Give him cuddles and kisses and he’ll forgive you.

Wiki How To: Text Tempt Him (HC)
Fandom: Obey Me
Pairing: All x fem!Reader (minus Solomon, Luke)
Warning: N.SFW
Prompt: MC comes across an interesting article and uses it against her boyfriend.
A/N: I was researching topics for HCs and came across an article that I had to use against the Nightbringer characters since they're a little more innocent compared to the OM characters. 😂 The ideas for the texts come directly from this article.
———————————————
Prologue:
You were browsing the internet trying to find a step-by-step recipe on how to make a cake, but on your browsing journey, you came across an eyebrow-raising article.
How to Make a Guy Horn.y Over Text.
As you read through the article, your lips curled into a devious smile. What a perfect chance to tease your new boyfriend. You quickly opened his messages and texted him.
———————————————
Tumblr media
"Oh, Lucifer. You. Me. 🍆👌 Now."
When he received your text, he was in a meeting with Diavolo, Barbatos, and his brothers. For a good minute, he started at your cryptic text.
Eggplant? Okay? Were you planning to cook for him and wanted to know if he liked eggplants? If so, why would you add in you, me, and now?
"Long...hole...," he mumbled under his breath. Ding. Ding. Ding. His eyes widened, and he slammed his phone, facing down, on the wooden table. The room went dead silent, and all eyes moved to him.
Lucifer cleared his throat and apologized but failed to hide his red cheeks. Why would you send him such a text, especially during the daytime?
He had a hard time concentrating on the meeting and a harder time not imagining getting intimate with you.
Tumblr media
“Know what I’m imagining right now? Me riding you…🤠"
Mammon was bored out of his mind listening to Barbatos lecturing some of his younger brothers. So when he saw your name on his lock screen, he smiled and opened your message. He almost let out a laugh but pressed his fingers to his lips.
"Did ya mean you and me goin' on a ride? You can't ride me...I'm not a car or bike. 🤣"
You giggled at his innocent reply. "You don't need to be a car or bike for me to ride you. If we are connected somewhere, I can ride you. 😜 Look up woman riding man if you don't believe me."
Mammon raised an eyebrow and did exactly what you recommended, not taking his surrounding into consideration. He yelped and quickly turned off his phone screen.
"Mammon...is there something you would like to add in? Rather, is there anything amusing on your phone that you would like to show us?" Barbatos was not pleased to be interrupted, but Mammon swiftly shook his head and held onto his phone tighter.
He felt tortured. The explicit pictures turned him on, and Mammon couldn't stop imagining you riding him. The bulge in his pants was growing bigger, but it didn't look like Barbatos would stop lecturing them anytime soon.
Couldn't you have waited until nighttime to send him that message?
Tumblr media
“Hi Levi~. Last night was incredible. You’re so good with your hands, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it…😳”
He smiled at your text and nodded while typing, "I play games a lot, so I am good with my hands."
"Are you now? Wanna show me just how good you are? 😏"
You weren't talking about him playing video games, were you? Rather than reply to your message, Levi wondered what you were trying to say.
He decided to look up the meaning and nearly screamed. With a steaming red face, he grabbed his phone and messaged you, "I DIDN'T MEAN IT THAT WAY! I MEAN'T I AM GOOD WITH GAMES."
"I am sure you are good with OTHER things too."
"N-No. I AM NOT!"
"Guess we will have to find out."
"W-Wait...what does that mean? (Y/n)? What does that mean?"
"I am coming over, and you're going to answer my question. Actually, no. You are going to show me.😘"
Levi was at a loss. Were you and him...really going to...? But he doesn't know anything about it!
When you opened the door to his room, Levi was passed out on the floor with a nosebleed. He took your joke too seriously.
Tumblr media
"Hey Satan. Wanna come over? You✌️👅. I 🍆👅."
Satan saw your cryptic message and got excited. Solving puzzles was one of his favorite passtimes, but if this was a puzzle why were you asking him to come over?
The tongue emoji meant you are hungry...so you wanted him to cook something for you? Maybe something with an eggplant? Then you wanted to lick his fingers after he cooked for you? Weird.
"(Y/n). Meet me in the kitchen. I will make a meal with an eggplant, but I don't prefer you lick my fingers after I am done."
You couldn't stop laughing. Cook and lick his fingers? "Satan, are you sure that's what I meant? Try again.😏 Since I feel generous, I will give you a hint - find a human anatomy book and compare them to the emojis."
Satan raised an eyebrow at the anatomy book part and concluded that it would be much easier to come to talk to you in person.
Right as he was about to knock on your door, Satan's jaw dropped. It finally clicked. You were not talking about eggplants or cooking.
Before he could run away, you opened the door and pulled him inside with the help of his boa.
"You can't run from me now, Satan..." were the last words he heard before being swallowed by the darkness in your room.
Tumblr media
“Asmo! I had the HOTTEST dream about you last night. It’s all I can think about now. 🥵”
Asmo blushed when he saw your message but was surprised you were leading him on. Did you forget he was the Avatar of Lust? Sending him these kinds of messages was "dangerous".
"What a coincidence! I had a dream about us last night too. We were in my room, our bodies were sparkling with perspiration, our breathing was ragged, sweet moans escaped our lips, and we were so close, I could feel the heat on your skin radiation onto mine."
Your jaw hit the floor. You were only teasing him, but he actually had dreams about the two of you getting intimate?
The thought of you and Asmo in an embrace as he filled you and moaned your name in your ears made you feel hot and bothered...until you saw his next message.
"I was teaching you how to do yoga, and you were struggling. 🤭"
Tumblr media
“Beel, I am hungry for your🍆. Come to my room.💋”
Beel's eyes widened, and he ran out of his room and straight out the front door of the House of Lamentation.
Half an hour later, you heard someone repeatedly hitting the tip of their shoe on your bedroom door. When you opened the door, you found Beel carrying a load of eggplants in his arms.
"Beel? What is this?"
"Eggplants...that's what they are called, right?" He smiled proudly, "You must be really hungry...I am sorry for taking so long..."
"You sighed and let out a laugh. "That's not what I was...you know what... never mind. Want to help me cook some eggplant dishes?"
Beel grinned and nodded. His innocence was endearing, but maybe you could teach him later tonight what you meant in your text message.
Tumblr media
“Belphie...I’ve got a ton of blankets and it’s still freezing. Should I put clothes on too?"
Belphie sleepily stared at his phone screen. What kind of a message was this? Was he just too sleepy to make sense of it?
"Maybe you are cold because you are not wearing clothes? Considered that?"
He shook his head, set his phone aside, and closed his eyes. Wait. Belphie's eyes snapped open - why were you telling him you weren't wearing any clothes? That's not something a woman readily shares with a man, right?
He rolled onto his stomach and buried his face in his pillow. Now, he can't stop imagining what you look like without clothes. Maybe he should visit you and find out.
Tumblr media
“I have a confession: I want you. Like, right now.”
Diavolo smiled at your text and innocently replied, "I want you too."
You were taken aback by his bold reply. Did he actually mean what he said or...does he mean something else?
"So, Diav. You want me to come over, or are you going to come over?"
"Come over. Barbatos is watching me, and I can't sneak out of the castle."
Barbatos? He couldn't be serious, right? "Wait, you want to do it with Barbatos watching? 😲"
"Why does it matter if Barbatos is around? Do you not like him?"
You didn't know whether to laugh or get upset. "You have no idea what I am talking about, do you?"
When the conversation abruptly ended, Diavolo tried to call you but panicked when you didn't pick up. He could ask Barbatos for help, but the butler would get upset if he found out the prince was messing around instead of working.
So, Diavolo did the next best thing - he sulked all day, thinking he messed up and you were mad at him.
Tumblr media
“Hello Barbatos. If you were in a room with me, some whipped cream, and nothing else, what would you do?”
The butler nearly dropped his knife at your boldness. What were you hoping to accomplish by asking him this question?
"I would take the whipped cream to the kitchen as it is a delicate product and will spoil if not refrigerated."
That's not what you were expecting. What a boring response.
"Oh..."
Barbatos chuckled at your reply. The joke was on you. He knew exactly what you meant, but two can play the teasing game.
He set his phone on the kitchen counter and stared at the whipped cream in front of him. If he was in a room with you and whipped cream, he would undress you, make a dessert out of you, and savor each bite of the dessert.
Tumblr media
"Simeon, if we were alone in a room right now, and I give you permission to touch me anywhere I want, where would you touch me? 🫦"
The angel smiled at your message but his eyebrows furrowed at the lips. Why were you sending him a biting lip emoji? Brushing it aside, he took his time typing the reply.
"I would"
"touch"
"your"
Excited for the last word, you gripped your phone harder, crossed your legs tighter, and held onto your breath.
"Hair"
The excitement drained out of your body all at once, and you felt like a deflated balloon. Then again, what else were you expecting from a resident of the Celestial Realm?
"Oh...okay."
Your response bothered Simeon, but why did it feel like the temperature in the room increased suddenly? The more he stared at the lip emoji, the more he realized your question might not be as innocent as he made it out to be. Were you perhaps trying to tempt an angel?

Something popped into my head at school after I read your hc’s on if Doyle had a child. What if they were a teenager and they attend Baki’s school and they sit next to each other. And when Doyle (quite literally) busted into Baki’s school he sees them and falters for a bit because he recognizes them?
OMG YEAH. Doyle isn't old enough to have a teenager kid (his wiki says he's around 25 years old) so let's pretend he's older here. Also please keep feeding my dad!Doyle obsession because I've been thinking about him even before the first request
Tags: gn!Doyle's child!reader, reader is around Baki's age, Doyle is aged up for logic purposes
-Doyle always knew he has a child, but he never thought he'd meet you. Especially not under these circumstances
-you don't know he's your father because you have another last name and your mother never told you anything about your father. But you look similar enough to let Doyle recognize you as his child
-he immediately sees you as soon as he's in the classroom, but his main focus is Baki, so he doesn't recognize you yet. While Doyle talks to Baki, you're still in the corner of his eye and he slowly starts to notice some similarities
-but he thinks it'd be too much of a coincidence to meet his child in a situation like this. It makes him falter for a bit, but he then decides to just ignore the thoughts and keep focusing on Baki
-when Baki leaves, Doyle takes a proper look at you and even if he tried to, he couldn't deny that you're his child
-all your classmates are still terrified of what's going on, but for some reason, you haven't felt any fear the entire time. You instantly recognized how similar Doyle looks to you, so you started wondering if he might be your father
-Doyle gets closer to you, so your classmates think he wants to hurt you. But they're still too afraid to do anything so they just watch the situation
-you want to talk to Doyle, but it's as if your voice disappeared. It's not because of fear because you're still not scared, but instead because of shock from the realization of who your father is
-Doyle is unsure about what to say as well, so you just look at each other for a bit, both of you still silent
-it's a weird moment, but it's not awkward. You feel an odd connection to each other
-Doyle is about to leave, and you yell at him to stop because you want to ask if he's your father. But then you realize all your classmates are still there, so if Doyle confirmed it now, you'd be in a very complicated situation
-you don't end up saying anything, so Doyle leaves your school again
-you don't tell your mother anything about it, but you secretly hope you'll meet Doyle again, so you can talk to him properly. You know you should be scared of him, considering he's one of the death row convicts. But something in you knows he wouldn't harm you, so you remain curious about meeting him again

a/n: you made it through the character and magic guides, the wiki page and even the reddit post and i hope you had fun doing it! my goal was to make the first few things feel like you were an actual player for seraphim even if it is a bs otome game for a genshin fanfic while also getting the exposition dump out of the way so it doesn’t bog down the actually written chapters. so while you don’t have to read it all, it certainly helps add to the experience i think!

prologue; fuck hard mode masterlist | next chapter
Tumblr media
“You’re combing too hard,” you tell the maid tersely.
The maid smiles but there is an unmistakable mirth in her eyes at your pain, “I’ve been with my lady for years now,” she coos, voice sickeningly sweet. “I know how you like your hair to be combed best.” 
So [First] tolerated this too? 
Even when this world was nothing but an amusing game for you to pass the time, when trinkets of information like this appeared in Hard Mode it always amazed you. [First] was a cruel antagonist and yet she’d easily tolerate the mistreatment of her father’s duchy in the same breath. But you can’t bring yourself to sneer at her; not then and especially not now. “Yes, well people can change,” you shoot the maid a sharp look in the mirror. “Comb my hair gently. If you still need critiques, I’ll be happy to demonstrate your performance. Take a seat here, I’ll comb your hair and show you as an example.”
“T-that isn’t necessary at all, my lady! I’ll comb in a manner you find more enjoyable,” the maid stammers and you hum in satisfaction.
The hell was wrong with the sadists that made this game, you fumed. Fucking sexists. Scaramouche gets a tragic backstory and gets to live in Normal Mode because he’s a pretty boy but [First] has to die in all the endings?!
Or be miserable, another part of yourself reminds you and you can barely hold back a grimace.
[First]’s marriage to Diluc when the player chooses a Secret Love Interest isn’t anything close to a happy ending.
You close your eyes and hold back a sigh. When you proudly declared on twitter that you would be trying to finally beat Seraphim’s Hard Mode, this isn’t what you meant. But apparently the gods of the Isekai genre and the reckless driver that hit you with their car had other ideas.
When you open your eyes, it isn’t your face that stares back at you.
Of course it was the Villainess.
It’s never the main character. You’re no Lumine.
It’s rarely a side character. You’re definitely no Raeliana.
It’s always, always the Villainess. I salute thee, otome isekai protagonists of anime and manhwas past.
You closed your eyes again.
“You must be excited to see Lord Ragnvindr at the luncheon today, my lady,” the maid pulls you out of your silent resignation and you feel your anger flaring all over again.
“Oh yes, I certainly am, he’s my beloved after all,” you offer what you hope is the face of a woman in love. Your maid gasps as if she just saw the devil incarnate instead. Fuck him, this is all his fault. No I’m not being irrationally mad at the wrong person.
Who cared if Diluc used to be your favorite love interest when you were just a teen on her first playthrough of a new and popular otome game, Seraphim. He definitely kick started your love for long-haired anime men and his princely vows of eternal love to Lumine made your eyes water when you watched the cutscene.
Yes, he did all those things but only after he publicly humiliated his fiancée by dumping her in front of all of high society. Diluc then killing [First] after she justifiably freaked out was just the icing on the cake.
When you began your first attempt at Hard Mode, your heart went out for the lonely little girl who only wanted to be loved but only received scorn in return. You wanted her to reach a happy ending with even just one of the characters in the version of the game that took place before Lumine appeared on the scene.
But this is my life now, you open your eyes once more and take in what you can see of the room’s reflection in the mirror.
A large and spacious bedroom, cluttered with potted plant after potted plant. Monsteras, philodendrons, succulents were among the various plants to grace this space. This room was [First]’s heaven on Earth in the duchy. She tended to each plant daily, lovingly imaging the day she could leave the wretched estate behind for a life with the one she fell in love with all those years prior.
But this is my life now, you reaffirm. And like hell am I gonna go begging for crumbs if I’m stuck here.
You deserve better than that.
[First] deserved better than that.
Fuck Hard Mode.
If this was your life now, there was no way you were going to play by the rules.
If no one wanted [First] around then fine. 
You will happily leave.

After playing sky for a while and not going through the elder cutscenes since the first time, I decided to do just that. I had such a powerful experience my first time in eden that I didn't want to let that experience go, I based my theories around it even. Right. I thought I was meeting myself, offering myself forgiveness for not being able to save everyone, forgiving myself and being forgiven all at the same time. But I have some more lore heavy ideas and theories now. Though I still don't know everything there is to know, so take it with a grain of salt.
I watched the Vault elders cutscene last, of course, and I realized that I had completely forgotten this one after all this time. Maybe you have too, so let's go through it a little.
You get to see all the elders constellations light up with more detail, then they all gather and bow to you to thank you, then you're shown.. A constellation that looks like a crown.
Tumblr media
All the realms have constellations: this must be edens constellation of course. A crown. A king?
Tumblr media
A king in a castle, what else could it be? I don't know what orb he is holding. When I saw this, it went really fast by and I got the feeling that by his expression the king is distraught, stuck in his castle, and immediately after you're teleported into the room that leads you to eden. All the elders showing up, bowing to you, showing you a distraught king in a castle and then taking you to the gate to eden, it seems clear to me that they're sending us on a mission: You saved us, despite what we did, please save him too.
So the next time I went to eden I would keep this in mind, I'm going there to find and save the king. But I've been to eden many times, I already know that I'll never meet the king, even if I save every single statue I won't save the king, because I never have saved him any of the other times.
I go to eden to fail my mission once again.
But with the king who I'll never meet in mind, things seem different. This time in eden I just so happen, maybe it was a glitch, to make it to the very last petrified friend with 18 winged light left. What do I do, just sit here and wait for death by falling rocks? I'm down to 10 winged light and I start crawling toward the giant crystal that never seems to get closer. Maybe.. What if I did make it there? Would I find him? But I didn't make it to the crystal, of course. I fall. I go through the painfully slow limping towards my winged light. I reach my savior.
And I stop for a moment to think. Why IS he sitting there, looking sad.. looking.. guilty? I reach my hand out and he takes it hesitantly. Of course maybe he is lonely but then wouldn't he be happy someone is here to get him? But it strikes me.
I'm not here to be saved from my doom, I'm not here in this room with a winged light who I need to revive myself. This light needs something from me. I help him up from the floor. He looks at me. I have the option to offer him a silent hug. I imagine if I had been here for the first time, what did I think this was? A hug of forgiveness to myself. Maybe I wasn't totally wrong after all. Because the light hesitates as I extend my arms to him, as if he's thinking
I don't deserve forgiveness
But I have already forgiven him. Does he know you don't need to think you deserve it for another person to forgive you? Because he accepts my embrace, and as he accepts being forgiven, he saves himself at the same time as he saves me. He's with me now, there's a crack where light streams in, and we fly out of the darkness together finally reaching the place beyond the crystal. His castle.
Idk.
Some people say the "winged light" in there is prince alef. I never understood why really. But I always for some reason believed the prince and the king to be the same person (obviously at different points in his life) so I kinda see it now.
(screenshots from sky wikis youtube channel because I wasn't fast enough to screenshot the actual cutscene)

Dungeons and Daddies Wiki Drama: A Greek Tragedy Told through the Medium of Forum Posts (Part 3)
Act 3: Death of a Mod Team
A sockpuppet by any other name would smell just as sweet.
Stay tuned for a late-breaking update later today- wiki admin Gaycowboyrats has gone on the record about their experience and I'll be sharing that with you all this afternoon!
In this, our last Act, we explore the consequences of wiki overreach of power.
First, the silent downfall of Gaycowboyrats.
December 5th, 2023:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The main concern? Inactivity.
Notable PawnSum quote: "I am sorry for not catching my mistake for three hours. I feel so foolish. I wish I wasn't autistic."
TwoRatner response: "I promise to keep you safe."
(A quick, sincere note for any readers- while I think many of the admin actions were... inadvisable at best, there's absolutely nothing wrong with being autistic or making an easy typo. I genuinely hope that whoever is behind the PawnSum account doesn't feel that way about themselves).
Tumblr media
The secondary concern? Racism in a Thor: Ragnarok movie review, and being a "trimmer of life."
(The link provided was https://rate.house/user/Gaycowboyrats, for anyone curious. It appears the page has since been deleted, but stay tuned for more on this in a separate post later).
The tertiary concern? Account security.
Another reference to site breaches and administrator account hacks. Interesting.
Tumblr media
Thus, the admin privileges of Gaycowboyrats were revoked. In a chorus of moderators and users with, again, suspiciously similar speech patterns, they were voted off the island wiki.
December 7th, 2023:
Tumblr media
The next Admin Discussion Zone begins where A New Development left off- with the transgressions of Brazil86.
"Please don't vote to remove me. I can still help. He's gone, so everything should be fine."
What this tells me, and the questions it leaves me with:
The most obvious conclusion is that getting voted out of administrator power is a very real and present threat, even for active wiki administrators.
By "he's gone," I wonder if Brazil86 means Gaycowboyrats, the admin who was just removed a day before (though Gaycowboyrats does not use he/him pronouns, to my knowledge). If so, this implies a coordinated effort on the part of the other admins to remove Gaycowboyrats greater than what we saw in the forum.
Or is this referring to some other event yet unaddressed in the forums? Maybe this is about the aforementioned account security breaches?
HungerBunger: "I think we're all mad at you."
My kingdom for a look at their Discord server.
TwoMarshall: "I just want you to not be me." An interesting turn of phrase for accounts that tend to speak in remarkably similar ways.
Tumblr media
Brazil86: "It is fixed, so please don't make me fall."
This Admin Discussion Zone is a dramatic depature from the ones that precede it.
The admins admit doubt, worry the rules are too restrictive, and yet Marth8204 still expresses optimism that the wiki will grow soon.
December 9th, 2023:
Tumblr media
In the immortal words of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and wiki administrator TwoMarshall, it is done.
The split was complete. No more season 2 material would be allowed on the original Dungeons and Daddies wiki.
Tumblr media
Another wiki user, Notapissboy, attempts to talk sense into the moderators. They're informed in no uncertain terms that they, in fact, are the one being stupid here.
Nicoh Watonshing: "Are you an admin? No. Am I? No. I however understand when I am being too big for my britches."
An interesting framing. Do any of us really know when we're being too big for our britches?
What is hubris, if not being too big for your britches?
Iconic Nicoh Watonshing quote: "It's free parking on Park Place."
(It must be noted for posterity that the Park Place spot in Monopoly is the second-most expensive property in the game.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
FunderStun sagely responds to this with the lyrics to the song Shooting Star by Bag Raiders.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
HungerBunger: "You have the freedom to do good."
Users November Jane and Sol-Has-An-Obsession come in with more questions and critiques. By this point, the administrator team seem to have gotten tired of the whole issue.
Tumblr media
After this, wiki forum discussion and activity appear to have moved past the drama. Perhaps they just moved on with their lives. Perhaps the only ones left to discuss things were the administrators who instigated the issue.
Only time will tell.
December 16th, 2023:
Tumblr media
December 19th, 2023:
Tumblr media
Even in the face of blatant personal attacks involving an insult to TwoMarshall's dead brother, administrators simply ask the culprit to not do it again. This is a strong tonal difference from their harsh responses to earlier reasonable critiques.
December 19th, 2023:
Tumblr media
The last forum post as of writing was a discussion on removing an inactive moderator.
Have they exhausted the wiki drama well, or are they merely biding their time?
Maybe TwoRatner was right, and the wiki is cursed.
Maybe all of this was one person with dozens of sockpuppets, feeding message prompts through ChatGPT to stage a coup on a niche fandom wiki and enact an extremely detailed, drama-filled LARP.
Maybe multiple trolls wormed into an already-struggling wiki through a security breach and decided to destroy it from the inside.
No matter the cause of the current wiki issues, user Chekovsnakess was correct. This was the hubris of the administrator team: by making a wiki for the administrators and not the users, they made a wiki for no one.
This series has left me with more questions than answers: what security breaches happened and why? What did Brazil86 do to cause so much animosity among the other mods? Why go through this much drama in a fandom wiki, of all places?
While I may never know the answers, I do know that the Dungeons and Daddies fandom remains, on the whole, one of the most positive and engaged groups I've ever been a part of. That's what makes this drama stick out the most, in my opinion: it's so completely out of left field from the fandom I've known. The wiki may have quickly gone from bad to worse, but I trust the community of this show, and I know we have the potential to make something better.
Chorus
December 8th, 2023 (immediately after the last Admin Discussion Zone):
Tumblr media
TheOneTrueGod41: "I don't know what's the matter with me. Sometimes I don't feel whole."
Words to remember them by.
Stay tuned for the epilogue and final post(s) in this series, including word from former wiki administrator Gaycowboyrats!
-----
And speaking of trusting this community, I'd like to take this chance to remind everyone to PLEASE not interact with the forums/wiki admins because of this!!! They may be making some questionable decisions, and I clearly enjoy deep dives on random internet drama as much as the next person, but please don't go trolling them in return.
We're better than that, y'all. Remember, "you have the freedom to do good."
On a personal note, I never expected this to go as far as it has: this evolved from people in the Patreon Discord wondering what was going on with the wiki and why it was splitting apart, to me sharing screenshots of funny non-sequiturs in the forums, to an entire Internet drama investigative journalism piece framed as a tragedy of wiki administrator hubris.
I've loved to see how much the community has rallied around this wiki situation- from people assisting me with research, to people offering to make dramatic readings or video essays out of my posts, to fans even working to create a new show wiki after this came to light. (More on that as it develops, hopefully!)
This is absolutely the kindest, most supportive fandom I've ever participated in, and everyone reading this has been a part of that. If our wiki is being brigaded by trolls, I sincerely hope that they realize the futility of what they're doing and move on with their lives. Several of them (assuming it's more than one person) have posted about really difficult personal circumstances. I hope that everyone involved gets the help they need and that they grow from this.
In the words of Ron Stampler: You are enough, just as you are.
Best,
Simon

It's Not Real ࿐♡ ˚.*ೃ
Tumblr media
I'm so evil for this LMFAO SORRY, also I stole this photo off the COD wiki LOL I'm running out of Graves photos. Side note I hope you guys listen to the songs when you read bc it really adds to the experience I SWEAR!!!!
this is short because I physically and mentally could not make this any longer it was too sad
Loosley based on ceilings by Lizzy McAlpine
gn! (no use of Y/N)
Word Count: 325
Warnings: THIS SHIT IS SAD IM NOT KIDDING, after Las Almas (do with that what you will), ANGST, it's not a happy ending sorry, allusions to death, (this got too real even for me)
₊°✧︡ ˗ ˏ ˋ ♡ ˎˊ ˗
“Come back safe,” you stood in the doorway as Phillip loaded his bags into the car. Dating the Commander of the Shadow Company wasn't easy, especially when he was a workaholic, always ready for the next mission. He jogged back over to you after shutting the trunk.
As he wrapped you in a hug he whispered, “I’ll be home soon, don't worry”, placing a kiss on your forehead before he headed to the car. You watched him back out of the driveway, waving back to him as he blew a goodbye kiss. 
You and Phillip had been dating for longer than you could remember. Your first date was a drive-in movie, he claimed it was timeless and insisted it was the perfect first date. You hated how right he was. At the end of the date, Phillip walked you to the door, and as you were saying goodbye, rain started sprinkling down. 
“Well how about that,” he laughed, sticking his hand out to feel the rain, as it picked up and started to soak through both of your clothes. Graves moved to wipe a stray raindrop off your cheek, “I like being rained on with you doll” he smiled looking down at you. 
Being with Phillip Graves felt like a movie, your own personal romance. Waking up in the mornings tangled up in sheets, with the sunlight peeking through the curtains. “What would happen if we stayed here forever”, he was staring at the ceiling, rubbing his hands on his face in an attempt to wake up, it was cute. You wish this was your forever. 
In a perfect world, he came back, but it’s not real. A week ago you got a knock on the door and it had been silent since. No more noise, it was just empty. As the rain fell down it reminded you of your first date, this was the ending of a movie you had seen before.

here's a link to fluff if this made you cry, I'm sorry no more angst for a bit LOL, good vibes coming

My Bitter Half series? Shut up and take my money!
It's monopoly money but the point still stands!
I Never expected that short story to get such praise. But if people want more of it, I’d be glad to I love the Siblings Dynamic, so here’s part 2 AKa: (Y/n) Pissing Wednesday off for (insert number) minutes.
Tumblr media
My Better Bitter Half, Part 2
Chapter 2: Sibling rivalry, Part 1.
“The whole snarky Goth girl thing might have worked at normie school, but here things are different. Let me give you a wiki on Nevermore's social scene.”
Enid and (Y/n) walk between Wednesday down the hall.
“I'm not interested in participating in tribal adolescent clichés.”
“Well, then use it to fill your obviously bottomless pit of disdain. There are many flavors of outcasts here, but the four main cliques are Fangs, Furs, Stoners and Scales.” She explains, they eventually reach the Quad, the main social hub of Nevermore.
“Those are the Fangs, AKA vampires. Some of them have been here for decades.” (Y/n) motions to the ones in deep dark glasses. A few of the more feminine vampires eye the Addams Twins, more importantly (Y/n). They growl and wink at him, some batting their fangs.
“That bunch of knuckleheads are Furs, AKA werewolves. Like me!” Enid smiles, and the howling of werewolves echo along the annals of Nevermore.
“Full moons get pretty loud around here. That's when Furs wolf out. I suggest you pick up noise-cancelling headphones.” Enid said.
“I'm assuming Scales are sirens?” Wednesday said.
“You catch on quick.” Enid smiles, and motions to a girl, dark beautiful skin with azure blue eyes.
“And that girl, Bianca Barclay, is the closest thing Nevermore has to royalty. Although her crown's been slipping lately. She used to date our resident tortured artist, Xavier Thorpe. But they broke up at the beginning of the semester. Reason unknown.”
“Fascinating.” Wednesday says, obviously sarcastically.
“I know, right? My vlog is, like, the number one source for Nevermore gossip.” Enid says with a prideful gleam. (Y/n) sighs at this, until Ajax, a friend and local stoner approaches Wednesday.
Yo, (Y/n) Enid! You're not gonna believe the dirt I heard about your new roommate. She eats human flesh. Chowed down on that kid she murdered.You better watch your back (Y/n).” Ajax says to Wednesday, “You look, shorter, did you grow your hair out?” He asks.
“Ajax.” You say, “That is my Sister Wednesday, the girl who is Rooming with Enid.” You say and he peers over to her, stoned out of his mind.
“O-oh uh—“ he begins but is halted
“Quite the contrary. I actually fillet the bodies of my victims, then feed them to my menagerie of pets.” Wednesday says, which blows Ajax’s mind.
“Whoa. You're both in black and white.” He says to the twins. “Like a living Instagram filter.” (Y/n) shakes his head
“Ignore him. Gorgons spend way too much time getting stoned. He's cute, but clueless.” Enid says, ignoring Ajax, the three continue to acquire her schedule.
“It's a small school. There wasn't much online about you. You should really get on Insta, Snapchat and TikTok. I find social media to be a soul-sucking void of meaningless affirmation.” Wednesday responds deadpanned.
“Are, you sure this is your sister?” Enid asks (Y/n), who grins.
“Unfortunately yes, In all her glory I’m sure.” You say coldly, The day ends and the family must bid goodbye to the twins, Pugsley hugs Wednesday.
“Pugsley, you're soft and weak. You'll never survive without me. I give you two months, tops.” She said
“I'm gonna miss you, too, sis.” He responds, he hugs (Y/n) who gladly reciprocated, and tags a “stab me.” Note on pugsleys back.
“I’ll miss you too little brother.” You say and the family leave in the car, the two stand silent before you spoke to her.
“A Word of Advice Mi Hermana (My Sister) Any plans you have of running away end right now. Mother has alerted all family members to contact her the minute you darken their doorstep, I will be watching you, closely.” You say as you go lucky attitude quickly fades.
“As usual, you underestimate me, Mi Hermano. I will escape this educational penitentiary, and you will never hear from me again.” She says, (Y/n) growls a bit and folds his arms.
“I detest saying this, but You are a brilliant girl, Wednesday, and.. as much as It annoys me, I’d… I’d honestly miss you if you left.” You admit, Wednesdays cold stare slightly warmed as you gritted your teeth.
“Mother wishes for you to stay here, you’re lucky you aren’t in prison like Uncle Fester. Don’t throw your life away over your pride.” You say and walk away leaving Wednesday to consider your words, but as siblings go, she wouldn’t take your orders laying down.
The Next day, (Y/n) effortlessly knocks Rowan down in their fencing, using his quick fencing ability.
“Coach, Coach, he tripped me.” Rowan complains.
“It was a clean strike, Rowan.” You say, “Widen your stance, build more muscle and I won’t knock you over like a twig.” You say, you turn your attention to the other novice fencers.
“Anyone wish to challenge the Prince of Nevermore?” You say, and one voice speaks up.
“I do.”
(Y/n) turns to face his sister, Wednesday. Geared to the toe for fencing. You can only laugh and tilt your head.
“Wednesday, as amusing as this would be I’d rather avoid hurting my own blood.”
“Do you? It seems nothing has changed since you left home, you’re still a coward.”
“Ooh!” The fencers say from parts of the room, (Y/n)’s smile Fades to silence and burning fury. (Y/n) snaps his fingers and the teacher looks up.
“Professor, I’d like a match with Wednesday Addams..” you say coldly and he nods, “First to three strikes.” The siblings get in position and pit on their gear. Drawing their sabres their intense glares focus on each other,
“En garde.” They say in unison and move in, the strikes were fast, fluent and held so much animosity. Each stroke inches closer to a point, before a quick jab to (Y/n)‘s neck won Wednesday a point.
“Point to Wednesday.” The Coach says, Wednesday voice was muffled but (Y/n) could hear it.
“You know what they say Brother, “Pride Cometh before the fall.” She says, (Y/n) moved in, much more ferocious and hungry for victory. The blades dance and trade before (Y/n) lands a point on her heart. The score is even.
“Let's finish this.” You say.
“Agreed. For the final point, I would like to invoke a military challenge. No masks. No tips. Winner draws first blood.” Wednesday says.
“Fine.” You respond and tear your mask off.
“I’ll apologize to mother when she visits you.” You say and Wednesdays focus was dead on you, and the final round began, the bladed tips were fast, sharp and each swing and jab were inches, millimeters away from landing a point, each attack felt so, raw, full of fury and strike, their blades clash once more and Wednesday goes for a stab, (Y/n) for a downward slash. And blood, was spilled.
(Y/n) and Wednesday sat in the nurses office together, both bleeding. Wednesday had a small cut on the top of her head, and her brother? Not as fortunate. He had his upper shirt removed as there was a stab wound in his shoulder. It was being patched up by the nurse and wrapped. The nurse leaves as the siblings sit together.
“Sorry for being a bit too, aggressive.” You say to her, Wednesday kept staring forward.
“I apologize for almost piercing your heart.” She said.
“I’ll admit, what you said got under my skin, you always had that ability to bring the worst emotions out of me.” She explains, “What’s Family good for?” You say sarcastically.
“I meant what I said though, I’d be amiss to have my other half missing. As much as you Hate it mother cares for you, as I do.” You said, you put your hand on her leg and try to reassure her.
“Just, Take what i Said into consideration.” You ask her, Wednesday turns her head to face yours. “I’ll consider it.” She responds.
“Thank you, I’m still going to stab you back though.” You say smirking, and Wednesday attempts to hide her grin.
“You’ll have to Earn it.”

Toga seems to avoid killing when possible
Especially when it comes to heroes, even select heroes after Twice’s death
(Spoiler warning)(Toga meta and Quirk Theory)
In Bnha Toga Himiko has had multiple chances to personally kill many individuals, including Ochako and Tsuyu but for some reason she never strikes a fatal blow.
I think this adds and plays into the conflict that she’s currently having in recent chapters using Twice’s Quirk, a part of why she’s not able to use it to the fullest extent.  
Starting with all the examples of Toga’s avoidance of critical hits:
Tumblr media
(Very easy cut available here.)
The first instance of Toga not following through ^, here in the first conflict between the three girls, the forest training camp arc.
While true that she did try to cut Ochako’s facial area, possibly implying a fatal hit, I think coupled with this ^ and all the other instances (especially with Ochako), Toga was possibly aiming for the cheek.
The next example came later in the Provisional Hero License Exam Arc:
Tumblr media
(Camie seems extremely fine ^)
Toga impersonated Camie, a hero student from another school, to get into the Hero license exam.
Drugging her so Toga could take her blood, Camie was asleep for four days and when she woke up, didn’t remember anything and as shown by the picture above (from the/stated by the Bnha Wiki) she “doesn’t care”.
There wasn’t much reason for Toga to kill or not kill Camie, the mission could have been completed either way as nobody realized anything was suspicious or discovered the real Camie in that timeframe.
But Toga went with the latter option.
(Side Point: I don’t think that body disposal could have been a problem either thanks to Kurogiri’s Quirk, if Toga went with the kill option, as Kurogiri was captured during the Shie Hassaikai Arc after the License Exam Arc/Camie mission.)
Next example Rock Lock:
Tumblr media
Toga, with the help of Twice, very easily takes out the Pro Hero Rock Lock during the Shie Hassaikai Raid.
But not kills, despite the fact that she could have easily stabbed him in the throat.
Keeping the Hero silent wasn’t an issue, as Toga would have had his mouth covered either way as shown above and while Rock Lock was only stabbed in his side but was still unable to warn his Comrades about Switch going on when they entered the room, the results would have been the same.
But still no kill.
 Bnha games provide evidence too, only with Civilians instead of heroes:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While this could be seen as merely creating a distraction, I think a dead or very close to dying body would have gotten a similar response from the heroes, maybe even more so than a “knocked out passerby with a little blood loss”.
The logistics of this example are a bit iffy but I think it does add more weight to the overall point.
 Cut ahead to the Final Arc:
Tumblr media
(Toga landing a stab on Ochako’s back shoulder ^)
There’s no reason Toga couldn’t have gone for the back of the neck or upper spine/center back here, and at this point in the story there’s no reason for her not too.
Toga had already been rejected by Ochako (though Ochako did later have a “change of heart”, wherever that may lead) so there weren’t any of her blood/love related reasons to miss the kill shot unless there still are lingering feelings or the kill isn’t really what she wants.
I think it’s both in this case.
Same with Tsuyu soon after:
Tumblr media
(Tsuyu seemed okay in the moments/chapters following this ^)
This doesn’t seem hostile at all, of course I mean after the initial take down.
The same instances come and go with the same results in Toga’s actions not to kill certain people, even after Twice’s death.
 Although that being said, Toga does still definitely kill others, those who are a threat to her and the Lov’s existence.
The other Pro Heroes on the battlefield (Post Twice death, giving rise to Toga’s very justified belief that the heroes will kill her and all the people she cares about) and the civilians in the way/part of hero society’s system (I again say that’s not a problem as 90% of the Bnha Civilians are still awful).
So while I don’t think that Toga has a problem with the concept of killing, I think it might have more to do with her targets.
Why can’t Toga use Twice’s Quirk to its full power?
Tumblr media
A number of reasons coming together I think, including but not limited to this ^ one.
Loving and the desire to become (the person Toga is turning into) are necessities to the full power of Toga’s Transformation Quirk.
Toga usually does need some form of love for the person who’s blood she takes and then in that way knowing enough about them to function properly in the transformation but I do think that the idea that “Toga’s power is more based around the intent to become that person” makes slightly more sense when looking at Toga’s Nature.
With Toga wanting an “easier life” and the bonds/happiness that come with it, so she zeroes in on people she believes have the qualities/lifestyle that she wants.
But another part of why Toga can’t use the Twice quirk might be because of the targets of her current battle, tying back into the ‘Toga avoids killing sometimes’ point.
Ochako and Tsuyu being the Heroes she’s fighting and needing to be in conflict with, with the clones stating that “All Hero must die!”, and with that intent not being what Toga really wants.
Toga’s “Pure Love” (though bloody) isn’t to kill others, at least not them.
Current Chapter Spoilers: I think the resent leaks help this theory even more at least for now, as any of the clones could have killed Tsuyu when they had her tied up and the real Toga could have stabbed Ochako center or a little higher, hitting more vital organs.
Also Ochako will be fine; Bakugo survived a Rivet stab in roughly the same area (and several other places) running him through completely, even kept fighting for a while despite the blood loss, so no worries.

A wild about post appears!
Me
Hey! Call me Cactus. They/them, late twenties. I also run Direct Action for Hope, for petitions/campaigns/protests that don’t fit on a good news blog, as well as my own takes and activism.
Queer, trans, disabled, white, USian, for context. (Please let me know if I accidentally post something offensive, btw! I promise I have like. an actual ability to take that kind of feedback gracefully and work to remedy the situation)
 Some Info about This Blog
Actual good news only!
No heartwarming stories that aren’t actually news. No stories that other sources THINK are heartwarming, but that are actually super depressing and dystopic!
All websites/sources are at least preliminarily vetted by me
If I don’t think a source and/or a news story I find is accurate or reliable enough, I find a new, better source with a new, better article
Relatedly, any links that have the url web.archive go to an Internet Archive copy of a paywalled article. Usually this is the LA Times, NY Times, or Washington Post. Not a weird suspicious link, I promise!
All posts are cited and dated at the end!
All posts should be tagged, including for major/common content warnings. I can’t promise that I won’t miss any warnings, but I am definitely keeping an eye on this
Filter the tag “not news” if you only want to see the news articles/posts
Feel free to send me articles to look at or submit posts! I’ll vet these before I feature them. That said, you might be waiting A While, because despite many efforts to the contrary I am the worst about checking/answering messages. Sorry about that
Posts are generally long because I have Many Words And Endless Details Disease. Hopefully the thoroughness and the bolded highlights make up for that
A couple people have asked me if I could share their donation posts, so I wanted to pin this up: I’m sorry, but unfortunately, I will not be sharing any donation posts, because I don’t have the time or skills to vet all of them and weed out any potential scams. If you’re struggling, please check out this post, which lists communities designed for donation posts and mutual aid. You’re much more likely to get help there than on tumblr. You can also find other mutual aid resource lists and wikis here, here, and here
If you’re struggling with depression or anxiety, especially around climate anxiety or climate grief, there’s a really, really thorough directory of crisis hotlines by country that you can find here. Seriously, they have so many countries I wouldn’t have expected them to list - try it, if it might help
Tip Jar
I put a lot of work and passion into this blog—and a not inconsiderable amount of time. Also, I’ve been too disabled to work much at all for most of the past year...rip. (but thankfully doing better now!) So, if you want to support my work, you can buy me a coffee!
Good News Source
You can find a comprehensive list of all the websites I’ve bookmarked as sources for this blog here!
Note about Gaza
I will be posting good news (as much good news as there can be in this sort of situation) about the ongoing genocide in Gaza, because one of the most important ways to help is to refuse to be silent. Palestinians in Gaza have asked us to please keep talking about it, that it really does help, so I’m going to listen.
And honestly, my disabilities significantly interfere with my ability to take irl action like going to protests, so using what platform I have here really is all the more important to me. (Though I am also setting a notif on my phone to remind me to call my representatives every few days, and I encourage you to do the same if feasible.)
All that said! It is completely legitimate to need a break from horrific news (a huge part of why I started this blog), and it’s also legitimate to say “I need to find out about this stuff Not from my tumblr dash.”
If news about the war/genocide (esp on social media specifically) is making you spiral and shit, then I genuinely encourage you to filter out these posts. I’m not judging. I have significant filters around what Israel/Palestine stuff I see on here myself, because I want to be very intentional about the times I do engage with it. (Which is every few days and via the Actual News.)
I’m committing to fact-checking this stuff before posting, fyi, even with reblogs.
So, tl;dr:
I will be posting about Palestine and Gaza
I will still only post good news, eg: about successful protests, aid reaching Gaza, progress toward ceasefire
I’ll only post actual, concrete news, not just Politicians Saying Words
If you need to not find about this shit from tumblr and/or my tumblr, then filter out the tags “Palestine” and “cw war”
If you don't want to see my posts on this blog about the Israel-Palestine War, then block the tags "Palestine" and "cw war"
if you need a break, then take a break

Some Rotten Man: A Book of Bad Decisions by Maggie Clef (Preview)
The following is the first half of the prologue to the upcoming SCP Wiki interactive novel, Some Rotten Man, starring the Baddest Man in Hell, Alto Clef.
The story is a part of the W H O R E O F B L O O D canon, and should be considered separate but adjacent to other commonly known depictions of Clef, the Goddess, and SCP-166, as it was made from what @ashes-and-pudding and I loved most about the characters, and made into a new take.
With that all said, I hope you enjoy a preview of his better days:
Tumblr media
(1686 words)
A strong breeze graced the two children on the cliff. One a kid, and one a fawn.
The kid stalked through the brush like a hunter, his two small hands in the shape of pistols. His footsteps were light. He knew his target was near. “Ya can’t hide forever, ya know I’ll getcha.” The warm, bright Grecian sun made his black fur feel even hotter. Sweat trickled down and stung his eye. “Come on out! No sense bein’ a sore lo-” The kid bleated slightly, as he felt two fingers press against his lower spine. “Bang! Gotcha!” The fawn smiled. The kid spun around just a little too slow as the fawn pressed two fingers against his chest. She mimicked the sounds of a gun firing.. Each imaginary bullet punctured the kid’s torso. “Gotcha again! You’re dead twice now. Good job.”
“Nuh-uh! I got armor!” The kid said, puffing his chest out. “I’m bulletproof!”
“Wh- no! That’s cheating! How’d you get that?!” She huffed, pouting as she looked at him in disbelief. “Cuz I’m the bad guy! I stole it offa lawman I shot down.”
“That’s not fair!”
“Yeah it is! I earned it! From when m-” The kid couldn’t finish. The fawn tackled him to the ground as she cracked a smile. “Shut up!” She laughed as they both hit the ground. “I put you in the ground fair and square, Alto!” The kid blows a raspberry at her. “Fuck you, Gaea.”
The fawn slapped him lightly across the snout, causing the kid to bleat. “Watch your mouth, Alto! I’m still the law around here, and I can bury you again.” “Yeah, and I’m an outlaw! No one kills the bad guy, he’s too tough!” “I just did!” “Well then why am I still here, dummy.” The kid stuck his tongue out at the fawn before she jabbed him right in the snout. “Ow! Quit it, I’m sensitive there.” She giggled. “Aw, looks like Mr. Outlaw is sensitive isn’t he?” The kid lapsed into an embarrassed but comfortable silence as they laid side by side, staring up at a blue summer sky. The cry of gulls filling the air.
It had been a few moments until the fawn broke the silence. “Hey Alto? Do you ever miss the Seventh Circle?” The kid was quiet for a bit. Dark memories lapped at the edge of his mind. “Naw… I- We weren’t very happy there. I just- I miss my family, I guess. The ones who didn’t make it, I mean.”
The fawn was silent, not sure what to say. “… How many?”
“... A lotta ‘em…” He sniffed, trying to hide it from her, despite already noticing. “I, uh, didn’t used to be the youngest, ya know.” 
“… I’m so sorry, Alto.” She sat up, placing a supportive hand on his knee. The kid sat up, and looked off to the side. “Ain’t nothin’ you gotta be sorry for. You weren’t the ones that killed ‘em… but thanks.”
“Of course. I’m your friend, that’s what I’m here for.” She gave a reassuring smile. “At least you’re safe here, right?”
“Yeah… Yer safe with me too, ya got that? I ain’t lettin’ nothin’ happen to you.” He put on a tough look, the best a boy could do at his age. Even if it was all smoke, the fawn still smiled and drew the kid into a warm embrace. “Well, thank you for keeping me safe, Mr. Bad Guy.” The kid blushed as he felt her arms around his neck. He gingerly returned it with his arms around the small of her back. The fawn wished in her heart that he’d never let go. The kid broke the hug first, as he remembered what he spent all of last night doing. “Hey, uh… I made ya a lil somethin’.”
“Oh yeah? Like what?” The fawn tilted her head.
“C’mon, I left it over here so we wouldn’t mess it up when we were playin’.” He stood up, gave his hand to the fawn to pull her up to his level. He brought her near the edge of the cliff, where they often sat. “Ok, you wait here, just close your eyes, and hold out your hand. I’ll be right back.” “Alright!” She waited as she was told to. She could hear him curse under his breath in the distance, and fumble a bit. “You, uh, doing okay back there, Alto?”
“Yeah, yeah, just- fuck, hold on, I messed something up.” He responded, walking back over to her. Gaea could feel something land in her hand. “Alright, open yer eyes!”
She did. What lay in her hands was the worst flower crown she had ever seen; poorly knotted Bear’s Breeches.
“I hope ya like it!” The kid smiled, proud of his handiwork.
“I… I love it.” She looked up, giving him a genuine smile. She donned the crown alongside her fledgling antlers. Or rather, tried to, as it immediately fell apart.
“Aw shit! Come on!” The kid groaned, embarrassed. “I ain’t no good at this, am I?”
“Alto, don’t be so hard on yourself, okay? You know I still love it.” She sat down at the edge of the cliff, gathered the flowers, and got to work. “Here, we can fix it together. Come on, sit down with me, alright?” “Yeah, sure, I ain’t… very good at makin’ shit.” He sighed, sitting down and letting his legs swing off the side of the cliff. “I uh… hope it ain’t too shitty or nothin’.” “Not at all!... You uh… chose a heck of a flower to make this out of… We’d have to get rid of some of this mess…” She held it up for the kid, stripping the flower of the superfluous petals. ”Like this, see?”
The kid nodded and watched intently. “When you’re done with that, can I try again?”
“Of course! Almost done.” She smiled, handing the prepped flowers over to the kid. “There you go! Now, you just gotta put those stems through those stems, and keep on going till you reach around to the start.”
The kid focused on threading the stems through the other stems, the fawn only occasionally interjecting to fix a mistake or two. Soon enough, the kid wrapped the crown around the fawn’s head to measure, closed the loop, and placed the much-improved and much more stable flower crown on her head.
“There you go! See? Easy, right?” She smiled, bringing her hands together in a clap.
“Yeah, you’re really good at this… guess it comes free with bein’ a nature god.” He playfully punched her shoulder.
“Maybe, but I also just like making stuff in general.” She giggled, and put a single flower in-between the kid’s long ears.. “... Especially if it’s for you.”
The kid looked away and blushed hard. “... Thank ya, Gaea. I… can’t really do much. I’m not good at a lotta things. Besides, ya know.” He shaped his hand into a pistol and went ‘bang’. An imaginary bullet pierced the heart of a gull flying high overhead. “I just- I wanna take care of you, I guess. Like how you do for me.” “Yeah and I think you’re doing a great job.” The fawn hugged the kid’s arm. Her head rested on his shoulder as the both of them looked at the sea. The two enjoyed the silence. The cold breeze of the open air and the warmth of their bodies right next to each other. “... Hey Alto?” “Yeah?” “What do you wanna be when you’re older?” “I told ya, didn’t I?” The kid smiled, wide and bright. “I’m gonna go back to the Seventh Circle. And when I do, I’m gonna be the Baddest Man in Hell. I’m gonna show those rent-a-cops with their fuckin’ tacked on tin stars who’s hot shit.” “... Why?” The kid blinked. “Huh?” “Why do you wanna be ‘Bad Man’ anyways?” The kid had a fire in his voice as he spoke. A fire that always made the fawn weary. “I like you the way you are already.” The kid was quiet for a while. He looked at the fawn’s worried face. Concern etched all over her pretty eyes. He sighed. “Cuz I’d rather be a bad man than stuck as… ‘river trash’.” He looked away. Embarrassed or maybe just ashamed. “River scum can’t take care of their family, can’t stop when bad men wanna hurt ‘em. River scum can't do shit." “Alto…” The fawn grabbed a hold of the kid’s hand, gently. “And ‘sides…” He turned back to “I was already a bad man before you met me. I might as well try and be the baddest there is.” “... You wanna know something, Alto?” “What’s that?” “I don’t think you’re a bad guy.” She puts another flower on his ear. “I think you just try too hard to be one.”
The kid sat there. And said nothing. He did nothing. He merely looked off to the horizon.
“I hope I’ll always have a place in your life. I don’t want you going away forever.” “Of course you will! When I’m the meanest, baddest sumbitch in Hell, I’ll do whatever I want. I’ll get a whole world just for you! Just for the both of us!”
The fawn giggled. “You don’t gotta! I think I like this world just as it is already.” “Maybe… but I think you deserve better.” “... You know, you can always just stay here, right? You don’t have to go anywhere. You, your family, you’ll always have a place right here, with me.” “Yeah… yeah… I know…” the kid was aloof. His thoughts elsewhere.
The fawn pouted once more, and thought of a way to get him out of his stupor. She leaned in quick, and pecked him right on the cheek.
“Wh-” the kid bleated once more, his face beet-pink. She simply giggled. “C’mon, Mr. Bad Guy. We gotta get dinner ready.”

Danny Phantom - 3.12/3.13 Phantom Planet
When Plasmius' new ghostbuster team outclasses Danny in the field, the boy decides to remove his powers and retire, unaware of an approaching massive asteroid threatening Earth.
1) *points at Phantom Planet* LOOK AT IT! Okay there is a whole ass Power Point presentation on tumblr about why PP sucks major ass, but I can't find it right now. So my sybopsis: Danny just. Decides to give up on his ghost powers. After 52 fucking episodes. He's out. Vlad won. Bye. Except oh no who would've guessed that was all part of Vlad's plan and Vlad reveals his powers to the whole world and takes ALL OF IT hostage (wow such cunning, much intelligence, very smart villain). And he wants money. Not like Maggie, whom he has been pining for for decades. Like I get that it's a children's show and that'd be a bit too fucked up but money? Really? So Vlad fails in making the anti-ghost-meteor intangible. Danny goes into the Ghost Zone POWERLESS and gets blasted by every ghost ever and I guess those people who think that he died to get his powers are right because HE GETS HIS POWERS BACK??? LIKE THAT??? Vlad's plan of using ghost powers on the anti-ghost-meteor didn't work, but using ghost powers on the entire world as the anti-ghost-meteor is about to crash into it does? I thought that meteor negated all ghost powers??? VALERIE GRAY WOULD NOT CHEER AT THE REVEAL THAT DANNY PHANTOM IS DANNY FENTON. SHE WOULD BE INCREDIBLY ANGRY AND CONFLICTED, PROBABLY PUNCH HIM AND THEN LATER APOLOGIZE WHEN SHE ACTUALLY HAD SOME TIME TO STOMACH THAT REVELATION. HOW *DARE* YOU RUIN THAT REVEAL FOR US?! Also what happened to Dani? Tucker becoming mayor is stupid but considering this entire episode, it's also super funny. I let him have that win lol.
2) So bad the fandom disowned it, AO3 fics regularly tag "Phantom Planet didn't happen"
Roseanne - 9.23/9.24 Into That Good Night
The Conners welcome baby Harris Conner-Healy home. Roseanne is delighted Darlene wants to live at home and work on her parenting skills. The family talks about their lives after winning the lottery and are glad they have all come out of it stronger people. Over a pizza dinner, Roseanne suggests they say grace to thank God that Harris survived and the family is together again.
Family and friends gather at the Conner house to celebrate baby Harris' Homecoming and everyone takes a turn chatting with the new addition to the family. Mark and Becky have some exciting news, as do Leon and his husband Scott. During dinner, Roseanne takes time to reflect on each member of her family and reveals she has been writing a book; everything we see is Roseanne's altered version of actual events. Roseanne reveals the true story and admits she changed whatever details she didn't like about her life and the people in it. In truth, the Conners never won the lottery; it was all a fantasy Roseanne created in order to cope with a devastating reality. In the final moments, Roseanne sits alone in her basement writing room. She goes upstairs, passing through the old kitchen and the old living room. Roseanne sits on the old couch with the classic afghan on the back and silently takes in the warmth and comfort of the family home as the lights slowly fade.
Just focusing on the (at the time) series finale and not all the terrible things Roseanne decided to say and be later. This finale sucked. It was built to retcon the entire (admittedly bad) season that came before it as a bizarre fantasy of the titular character after her Husband died. They quickly and randomly undid different characters' development and swapped around couples just because.
