Never in your life had you been so angry at a plank of wood. It all began this morning when Bucky left a note on your nightstand.

“Good morning, my sweet angel. Daddy has a lot of very serious calls today. Please keep the noise down and don’t open or knock on the door if it’s shut. Use your special phone to call me if there’s an emergency. Do your chores for today and be a good baby for me. Love, Daddy.”

The door is where you are now. Sitting on the floor, glaring at the smooth oak that you can’t tap on and the shiny knob that you can’t shake. You finished your chores, played for a while, and ate both breakfast and lunch already. Bucky was still in his office and he hadn’t left all day.

Your daddy spoiled you in so many ways: with his gifts, with his love, with his words. The only thing he couldn’t give you enough of was his time. His job was a difficult one with long and sometimes unpredictable hours.

He was able to make some changes. He trusted Sam and Steve to handle his out of town meetings so he didn’t have to travel as much. He also promoted Natasha from head of security to essentially his right hand by helping him with his larger projects.

These changes were so important. They gave you so much more time with your daddy, but there were still days like today when he simply had to do the work himself. Bucky also worked from home as much as he could so he could see you for lunch or even work with you sitting quietly on the velvet loveseat in his office. Him working from home was almost worse for you on the days you couldn’t go see him.

You daddy is home. He’s sitting at his desk where you color sometimes, on the chair with the best spinning ability in the whole house. There was just this one door standing in your way. You wanted so badly to knock and call for him through the cracks, but you knew better. You daddy was a stickler for rules, and he would not appreciate you ignoring his boundaries.

You sighed and settled for glaring at the door. Maybe your anger would be enough to open it without touching and then Bucky would be so impressed he’d have to take the rest of the day off.

Pleased with your plan, you sat on the floor with your hands on your knees and continued glaring. It felt like hours were going by. You thought the doorknob was moving, but it was just Alpine’s reflection as she trotted past. You kept glaring. Still, nothing moved. Just when you were about to give up, the sound of a lock turning echoed through the hallway and your daddy opened the door with an amused smile.

“What’re you doing here, sweetheart?”

“Daddy!” You reached your arms out for cuddles and Bucky happily obliged, even pressing a noisy kiss to your cheek.

“Were you sitting on the floor and waiting for Daddy? I saw you on the cameras.”

“I wantedta knock on your door but you said no knocking so I was trying to open it with my eyes,” you explained.

Bucky laughed. “Oh yeah? How did that go?”

You pouted and hid your face in his neck. “It didn’t work.”

“Aww.” He rubbed your back to comfort you. “Maybe if you ate more carrots your eyes would be strong enough to open doors.”

“Daddyyy.”

“I’m kidding, baby. C’mere.” He pressed your foreheads together.

“Thank you for listening to Daddy’s instructions today. You were such a good baby and I’m so proud of you.” He gave you a gentle kiss while your face warmed from his praise and affection.

You thanked Bucky, earning you another kiss and more praise for being so polite.

Your daddy was beaming. Anyone who knew of his title and past would’ve been shocked at the way he grinned ear to ear while holding you in his lap as if you were the most precious thing in the world.

“How did I manage to capture the sweetest little baby in the whole world, huh?”

You giggled. “You didn’t ca’ture me, I got you!” You held his face in your hands. “My daddy.”

“You better feed your daddy now, angel. Daddies get hungry!” Bucky playfully shook free from your grasp and bit your hands.

“Nooo, daddy!” you squealed. “Eat the food downstairs, not me!”

He stopped thrashing and acted shocked. “There’s food downstairs? Why didn’t you say so?”

“Yeah! And we can watch a movie and cuddle after dinner! Can we, daddy?” You clasped your hands together and bounced excitedly.

“Anything you want, baby.”

Speaking of said dad, he went on a lil mini 10 day holiday across the country to Perth to sight see nature and go on a boat ride to see some Orcas (he's retired, it's his way of getting out the house and not turning into an old man potato, and comes back with hundreds of photos of landscapes, plants and flowers and points of historical interests to show my Mum and I, with cool facts and stories in a slideshow~)

Unfortunately i was still sick at the time and didn't get the chance to join my mum in dropping him off at the airport, let alone the chance to give him a big 'ol hug before he left- so I drew him this 💖

You can't escape the 'Ken hugs.

#fun fact I actually have mild OCD when it comes to hugs especially with family members #sometimes they have to deal with me hugging them many times over until its right #and if I don't hug them before they leave I get anxious as hell #it used to be to the point of panic attacks- my brain would tell me because I didn't hug them they will die before I see them again #and they would never know how much I love them #Family gatherings are a hug fest- my family and their partners know the moment I bust through the door I must run the circuit #everyone gets hugged and neither of us have a choice in the matter #at least it's hugs and not something else like turning on and off the lights a number or times or closing and opening doors or some such #sure hug OCD sounds nice but when it's been like 5 minutes and 15 hugs it's not fun for either party-it's better these days but it took wor #or running out the door to your sisters car because the hug wasn't right and they're about to drive off and if I don't catch them in time- #-I'd cry for hours feeling dread and anxiety down to my bones until i end up sick and in bed- that's not so nice #the brains a bitch

We're into Day 2 of anti-anxiety meds and I honestly cannot believe people just live like this.

Like they're not catastrophizing everything all day everyday?

Like they're just calm and at peace and can say Hi to people and can focus on what needs to get done??

Like they can just have a gotdam emotion and it doesn't completely hijack their entire nervous system into a fight/flight/freeze response???

#how is this fair #but also very relieved for the first time in a long time #i just walked out the door and took a walk today #i said good morning to people and felt happy and not neverending dread about what they think of me??? #i can laugh when my kids don't cooperate??? #im #i would cry if I wasn't so zenned out #god i needed this break

Dread = Time-Checker

This is how Dread looks like in human form

I wasn't expecting that he appeared in this game since he's re-introduced if i remember correctly. It is getting attention to this new entity, and i think he's interesting how he spawn when clock reach midnight and turn everything grayscale.

That's few of his eyes that are covered in his bangs, few of his mouths will show up if true power mode activated, no need to afraid. Hope you enjoy -v-

Here's monochrome version

It's the boy-!

I don't have much to say other than I don't know how to feel about my design so may as well see if posting it makes it grow on me or I end up hating it

Apron is optional, maybe I'll doodle them without it because they only have it when helping Dupe around the hotel

#roblox doors #doors hide #I was actually kinda dreading Hide #And then realized for a certain someone's gift I needed to figure out their design #So here we are

THE WHITE DOOR

He never called her “the woman he loved” until she was dead in his arms. 

Her killer was a a man whom Bastian admired; but Bastian wronged him anyway, and he was savage and exacting in his vengeance. So: Bastian too is savage and exacting, and far less admirable. 

Though revenge provided no abatement of his grief, it was required by the circumstances.

It is not enough by far.

He readies his companions to set out for the continent of Death itself. He knows only one man who has been there, and that man returned blinded, bitter, and heartbroken: but the dark prince loves his wife, and a knife will not keep him from her. Nor will the endless miles of the white countries, nor the threat of mutilation, nor the will of any God.

He expects horror. He will bring it himself.

His wise wife, his fairy wife: he trusts she knows that he is coming.

#in the depths of the plague our protagonist sets out to reckon with Death Itself #first of all a thousand props to Emily who did not break character for a second when Bastian found his wife murdered #she roleplayed it to the hilt #exacted a terrible revenge #and then immediately started making plans to set out for the White Door: #the dreaded gateway to the empires of the dead #along the way Bastian discovered how much each of his companions truly loved him #that although he started out viewing all of them as merely tools to facilitate his rise - he has been good to them #he took care of his people #and - to his grief-stricken amazement - they rallied to his side in his calamity #the dark prince - the villain of so many other stories - is more than just the hero of his own #he is the hero of theirs #and soon: the hero of his wife's #I'm so fucking feral to go to the white countries and watch Bastian face The Horrors to save his beloved y'all I'm going Ape Shit #heretic #dice matters

baby always sleeps with a nightlight because she doesnt like the dark but also because she sometimes has sleep paralysis in addition to Everything Else and often sees her mom laying in the corner when she has these episodes. unmoving, but There. the nightlight helps keep all the corners in her room bright so when she fully wakes up and frantically looks around for the body, she can quickly realize it was just her imagination. that doesnt make it any less scary or upsetting, but it at least soothes some of the panic

#syd squeaks #she doesnt realize it as a kid but finding her mom's body really REALLY traumatized her and seeps into a lot of her life #she checks people's breathing and gets really nervous opening doors and has these dreams so full of dread #shes just a baby :( #baby ayuluk #samantha ayuluk

This panel is actually kinda interesting in retrospect

Tsuyu/Chizuru get curry (I think? I'm too lazy to actually look it up)

Ebony gets purple poisonous-looking goop

Gunhild/Olga get spikes

Heruka gets the bottomless pit of despair

Toyo gets... green goop? green grass?

and Amaryllis gets freaking lava

#external pressures r . pressuring #i’m gonna go it’s just gonna be one of those mornings where i can’t think abt what im doing until im already ready + out the door #eve adhd hack: dreading going out to run/go to work/etc? #simply do not let yourself think abt the last step. only the intermediate stuff #putting shoes on. brushing teeth. getting in shower. whatever #and then suddenly you’re ready to go and at that point well you might as well head out the door

is anybody else out there still creating twdg fanworks 😭📢 where is everyone please dont say reddit i cant go back there

#im gods bravest little soldier for following fandom tags but its rough in there #guess i should specifically say where are the twdg fans who didnt hate violet #sometimes i remember how homophobic (and racist?? in the lee and clem game??) people were during s4 (and still are on reddit/yt) and think: #maybe i should stop looking and just let the cool people find me #go knocking on enough doors and the devil may answer #but i want to see fanart 🥺 #was only Slightly surprised by the misogyny because this is clems game series but hoo boy the misogyny towards violet...... #ive gotten used to how quiet it is i gotta remind myself a dead fandom is better than an annoying one 💀burning shores reminded me of that #so hard being a wlw in video game spaces please where are my other wlw video game enjoyers i need to find u 😭 #gotta draw some more ellie to lure them in like an angler fish #im honestly surprised how dead twdg seems to be esp with the way the final season ended?? its set up so well for fanworks?? #theres a lot of unaccounted for time even before clem got to the school. and its set up that their lives could be anything now #is it just because people were burned so hard by seasons 2 and 3 that a lot of people just didnt even play 4?? #or maybe they didnt even know s4 was un-cancelled?? #because i know theres a lot of people who stopped after 3 #but 4 is such a return to form. its like the other side of the coin to s1 for me. like if s1 was more hopeful instead of dreadful #it is Such a love letter to s1 honestly. imagine if telltale didnt shut down in the middle of production and they got a full budget..... #sometimes i imagine it... s4 with a full 5 episodes??? in my dreams. literally. #oof this turned into a ramble im just fandom lonely #twdg #it speaks
