Official Rules Post!
Tumblr media
This is it!! The rules you have all been waiting for!
Team work is key! As a team, you can complete some INSANE feats! How do I know?? Because we absolutely shook it up in the Fitblr Games 2018, and by golly we can do it again!
Work with your team to complete the Challenge Tasks posted each Monday. If I say 400 squats, it is not 400 by yourself. It is a total as a TEAM of SIX over the course of seven days. Break down those rep together and crush the challenges. To coordinate you will need to elect your Team Captains!
Each team will report their reps to their Team Captains. Those captains will relay the info to me, the Games Master. Team captains, once you are elected, send me a DM!
The captains will be there to tally up the numbers and as soon as your team is done for the week. Scoring is based on how early in the week all of the challenge tasks completed by each team. First team does each week will receive the highest points.
But wait, you want another way to score points too??? I can work with that. Enter the Solo Challenges. Each Wednesday your team will have the opportunity for a representative to face off head to head to gain bonus points and a Power Up. That right, a this is your chance to cause chaos!!! The power up will be announced along with the Solo Challenge winners, you never know what could be waiting on the other side of victory.
You know how I said Challenge Tasks would be posted each Monday? Well, those reps have an ultimate due date of 11:59PM (CST) each Sunday! All teams completing the challenge tasks by then will recieve point, but late scores will not be counted.
Each Tuesday you will be able to see your team's updated score and rankings posted on this blog, @fitblrgames-2023. The Team Captains will be tagged each week, don't forget to relay info to teammates and to follow this page!
Tomorrow 2/5/2023 the team lists will be released and you will be able to elect your captains. Welcome to the games!
Vocabulary:
Challenge Tasks: Posted each Monday. Complete these as a team as soon as possible.
Team Captain: Is elected by each team in Week 1. Reports the score to the Game Master all 8 weeks. (Choosing a second in command or co-captain is not a bad idea either).
Solo Challenge: Announced each Wednesday. Challenge varies week to week. Representatives compete individually for a chance to win their team some bonus points and a power up.
Representative: Elected by each team weekly. This member represents the team in the solo challenge.
Power up/Grenade/Boost: Used to cause Chaos. Won from solo Challenges
Games Master: The score keeper. Non-participant to keep things fair, but will be attempting the challenges each week anyway! This is who the Team Captains will report to. (It is me btw! @fitblrgames-2023 )
Count down to the games: 2 days!

Jumping on the Maximum Ride rewrite train
Disclaimer I have not read Maximum Ride in years and I never read from Max onward and there’s no order to this I’m just writing down whatever I think of.
First of all, the Flock are test tube babies and anyone who tells them they are biologically their parents is a liar and they know this
Gasman has an actual name, August, because calling him Gasman is just weird. It can still be a nickname tho. I’m gonna be referring to him as August for the rest of the list btw
Max and Fang are 16, Iggy is 15, Nudge is 13, August is 10, and Angel is 6
They don’t randomly get powers that are irrelevant and useless. All their powers are present from the beginning, they just can’t seem to control them
Jeb is evil and emotionally manipulative like in canon and a recurrent plot point is the Flock trying to come to terms with the fact that he never really cared for them.
Fang uses a fucking VPN for his dumbass blog, also his blog looks like what you’d think Gerard Way’s MySpace page would look like.
Ari is still SEVEN and acts like you’d expect a SEVEN year old would: IE not being a creep to Max and not looking like he’s 18 and just being a scared little kid put through cruel experimentation by his father.
Total is there, but he cannot talk. No, not even to Angel. He’s just a little guy with no powers and no wings.
Angel can still read minds, but she’s really bad at controlling it. She sometimes accidentally reads minds without meaning to and feels bad about it because she is a child and shouldn’t be evil for no reason.
No forced ass “You’re kids but also save the world habe fun” plot. It’s all them trying to stay undiscovered and safe. Every adult they meet betrays them (Besides Dr. Martinez)
Speaking of, Dr. Martinez takes them in and adopts them as her own once she and Ella manage to prove to the Flock that they’re like the only trustworthy people in the damn world.
Dr. Martinez gets to slap Jeb when he comes and tries to take the Flock away like “fuck you these are my kids!!”
The Flock considers each other siblings. Meaning no weird Max/Fang romance and also they’re kids.
The worst thing that happens is of course the School capturing everyone and now the Flock has to escape the school without Jeb’s help AND rescue Dr. Martinez and Ella bc that’s their mom and sister!!!!
That’s all I got James Patterson give me the rights to Maximum Ride right now

twenty years ago, i wrote a Star Wars fic.
two years ago, i opened the document for the first time since junior high and liveblogged the reread for Mary.
tonight... you get to experience the experience. savor it. firefox crashed twice while i was compiling this post, so cursed is the tale...
someday, Mary, i will tell you about the cringiest thing i've ever written. it's completely ripped off of a Boba Fett novel released right after AotC, there are song lyrics repurposed as a poem, iirc there's a literal Plot Device that gets completely forgotten about until i realized i was at the end of the story… anyway, i just have to read it myself first, because i literally haven't opened that document in fifteen years. it's that bad. i printed it out and brought it to my grandparents' cabin upstate and made everyone in my family read it. i physically cannot let you read the entire thing, but when i finally get up the courage, i'll liveblog it for you
it's so bad, Mary. it's so bad. the ship in the story is literally the Slave I with (i think???) a different name. i distinctly remember looking up the actual type of ship in one of my brother's many Star Wars guides
it's FANTASTIC and just the vague memory is so awful i seriously haven't touched it since i was like, 13
i don't remember very much of the plot except the kid trying to get his ship back, because i'm pretty sure that's what happened in the Boba Fett novel lmao
there's supposed to be something about a mysterious crystal, but after like one chapter i forgot about it until remembering at the very end and just having this kid find it in a ship. like… imagine opening your glove compartment one afternoon and finding the fucking Hope Diamond in there. that's pretty much what happens
the last true island of cringe on my hard drive must be conquered
should've bought myself a neck brace in case i cringe so hard my head retracts into my torso
me: alright before i even open the document, i should tell you it's called 'Cast My Soul to the Sea'. IF i recall correctly, it's a bastardized lyric from a Loreena McKennitt song Mary: This is going to be AMAZING
i'm not sure i ever heard this song. i took the title and the """"poem"""" in the story from the titles of a totally different Star Wars story i found online. i didn't read it, btw, i just liked the title
okay. gonna open the document. if i never reply again it's because god smote me
thank god it's not written in Comic Sans
okay. okay. up until this instant i didn't remember the protagonist's name but thought it started with a J… turns out his name is Zachary McCoy. a very Star Wars name there.
anywho, it starts off with a line from this """""""""poem"""""""", and Zach's sister Evelyn asking if that's all he's written. he claims "seventh form" is difficult, whatever that is.
their father is apparently coming home soon. he is, OF COURSE, a bounty hunter.
we timeskip to Tuesday when Dad gets home… okay, this family consists of Zachary, his two little sisters Evelyn and Clarissa, mom Rachel, and dad… Breon. BREON. i mean, at least i was TRYING to make something a little more Star Warsy, but it stands out badly compared to the much more normal names. i should've gone big or gone home. why not Zaqureehy???
…i just realized this entire story is SEVEN PAGES LONG. what the actual fuck, 13-year-old Alex???? you useless asshole.
moving on… Zach notices his father seems sad, but doesn't worry about it much
Zach overhears his parents talking quietly and conveniently catches a few super relevant words! we get our first mention of the 'Caman's Crystal'
so Breon needs a hand because he has to track a bounty on Yavin 4, but he also has to get help from "the couriers on Dell", whatever that means. apparently he needs to do these things at the same time… so he asks his kid. how old is this kid? fuck if i know.
and there ends chapter one. it was about 400 words. i'm deeply ashamed of myself
me: chapter two… Zach sees a cool ship, goes "oh neat, whose is that?" and apparently it's HIS now. this kid is like, twelve. Mary: I mean…expensive flex, Breon, but okay
he notes it's almost like the Slave I, although HOW he knows that i have no fucking idea, except it's smaller. i'm calling it the Slave II now.
it's actually called the Starlight 7, but.. nah
Zach finds it a little strange at first but ofc he's an INSTANT EXPERT at piloting and gets the hang of it instantly
Breon apparently just vanished into the ether, because Zach's in hyperspace now. he reads a book to pass the time… which apparently has detailed descriptions of both Yavin 4 AND Kamino. can you tell i was not very familiar with anything Star Wars besides the movies?
Tumblr media
oh wait, apparently Breon's still there? okay then
Zach tells himself not to worry because his father's flying and Breon is, of course, Jango Fett with the serial number filed off there's a clone joke there
…what follows is a total rip-off of the AotC scene where Obi-Wan chases Jango and Boba through the asteroids near Geonosis, complete with some rando Jedi following Breon and Zach. except they escape by shooting a wall with a torpedo and then hiding so it looks like they crashed into the wall Rando Jedi is clearly dumb as shit, because he falls for it. why is he there? idfk
i hate myself for making my parents read this. they must've been so disappointed. i bet that was the exact moment they realized why i was kicked out of honors classes after 7th grade.
chapter three! within the space of 57 words, they land on Yavin 4, spend the night in a hotel (do they even HAVE those on Y4????), Breon tells his son where to go, and then Zach takes off on his own.
i WANT to say Breon randomly gets killed at some point off-screen, but i honestly don't remember. too bad i can't keep it that way submitting to the mortifying ordeal of knowing myself here
mmkay so he heads to Dell, which has 11 moons and apparently extremely strong gravity that pulls the ship in, though there's no actual mention of the effects this would have on a human hanging out there or anything. Zach can't find a landing pad and instead lands the ship in a small field near a city.
Tumblr media
Zach says 'people' and means 'humans'. kid's fucking xenophobic.
i'm now really glad this is short because it's excruciating.
he inexplicably gets stopped by two bounty hunters who are looking for a kid around his age LOL he namedrops his dad to scare them off
Zach then wanders around like "okay Breon McCoy is well known and i'm his son, so nobody can use me as bounty, unless i AM a bounty" and my brain just short-circuited a little
me: chapter four! he has no idea where these 'couriers' who are supposed to be awaiting him are, or even WHO they are Mary: nice going, Breon, you didn't give your kid any information me: Breon didn't do a great job prepping him for this, but that's what 57 words gets you, i guess
so he goes back to the Slave II and OH NOES IT'S GONE!!!!!!
a Dellian girl named Amandia is hanging around. that seems suspicious as fuck, but she tells Zach that a guy named Buz might've taken the ship and it's probably on Dell 2.
Tumblr media
me: what the FUCK is going on in this paragraph Mary: I'M SO CONFUSED??????? me: who's Perrier???
like. okay. so i guess Breon told Zach to find the couriers so they could help him find the crystal… and maybe Perrier is the bounty he's trying to find…?
usually i can puzzle out my own writing, but this one is… really something
fuck it, moving on. 'couriers' are Dellians light enough to… fly from the surface of Dell to the moons without a ship?? this makes NO sense but i'm pretty sure it was ripped off that Boba Fett novel, so i'm sure there was a better explanation somewhere
at this point i'm just going to assume Breon's trying to bump off his son for insurance money or something and he's in cahoots with these guys. Amandia helped steal the ship, obviously.
okay, chapter five! Zach and Amandia are on a cliff, waiting for the gravity to shift. the explanation has something to do with the moons. idk.
so they step off the cliff and fall a bit and then just… start gliding through space, rising and falling with the gravity changes. again, 100% stolen from that novel. they eventually land on the moon (no idea how they breathed this entire time), but lol it's the wrong moon
Tumblr media
yeah, Amandia's suspicious as fuck.
they do, however, make it to the correct moon. apparently "daylight never comes" there, so i'm going to assume it's tidally locked and they're just on the dark side. this inexplicably gives Zach an idea for his """"""""""""""""""""""""poem"""""""""""""""""""""
they walk for a while until they see another Dellian about Amandia's age, whatever that is. his name is… Noah. they need to use his speeder to get across the moon because Buz has his ship. how do you know that, Amandia… Zach isn't NEARLY suspicious enough for this line of work. she's so obviously working with this Buz dude, kiddo.
chapter six!
Tumblr media
Zach. honey. she flies around on weird gravity tides. this girl doesn't give a FUCK about a super-fast speeder; she's trying to get you killed or sold into slavery or something.
so they take off in Noah's speeder, which is extremely fast. Zach's cool with this because he likes upgrading his own speeders, asks if this thing goes any faster, which ofc it does.
oh hey! we finally find out Zach lives on Naboo.
Noah's been to Kamino, apparently. i don't know how i missed the very clear fact that it's an extremely isolated planet and gets very very very few visitors
they see the Slave II! but suddenly it takes off and heads for another moon!!!!! SUSPENSO.
literally two pages left. i can't believe i packed so much into seven pages and yet there's absolutely no detail, action, exposition, character development, or even much in the way of PLOT here.
side note, i just remembered a part in my dream where R2-D2 had kidnapped a person and kept them buried in a shallow grave… but they were still alive and i saw him dig them up. their entire head had been skinned and they were like, weakly crying out for help. it was extremely creepy and fucked up. then C-3PO showed up and R2 quickly buried them again before 3PO noticed. so i guess i subconsciously think R2-D2 is some kind of sadistic serial killer or something? idk, man. let's go back to the story.
so Noah decides they can follow the Slave II in his own father's ship, hilariously called the 'Superfly'. he says he's eleven years old, too… so Amandia's just a kid also? maybe Buz is her dad and he's getting her started in the crime business early. wait wait no! i was wrong! it's ZACH who's eleven. Noah is thirteen and he's annoyed he can't have his own ship
they're so busy chatting they don't notice a "small fighter" approaching until it fires at them
and then there are like… five fighters? who fight each other? and one of them is Noah's brother… idk
anyway, they manage to land on Dell 8 after that, though the ship is slightly damaged from the hit they took
Mary: Is this entire 7 page story literally just jumping from moon to moon? me: PRETTY MUCH
they see Zach's ship but can't follow in their own, so Noah grabs a conveniently located speeder and they're off again!
chapter eight… they switch so Zach can drive… they catch up to the Slave II and Buz, whoever he is, gets out… they run past him onto the ship and he takes the speeder and leaves. that's. um. anticlimactic doesn't seem to cover it.
they hear something rattling around in the ship, but WHATEVER, Zach stops on the other moon and Noah leaves and then… well… you need to witness this for yourself.
Tumblr media
i wasn't joking about the glove compartment thing. it's like the only thing from this story i really remembered lmfao also check OUT that amazing writing there.
Mary: Space glove compartments are definitely a thing, they have a whole thing with them in the Jedi Prince books, so you're just in a long line of wonderful ship glove compartment writers Mary: that being said, WHY WOULD HE PUT THE SUPER RARE AND VALUABLE CRYSTAL IN A GLOVE COMPARTMENT
chapter nine, Zach goes to a "government building" on Yavin 4 and hands over the crystal to some random official, who asks what he's doing here
look, i don't even know what this crystal is, what it does, why it's so valuable and everyone wants it… i just don't know.
me: Zach says he's looking for his father Mary: And here's where we find out…that his father is DEAD (I assume)
and then… AND THEN…
Tumblr media
THE END. except for the """"""""""""""""""""""poem"""""""""""""""""" which is like five lines, doesn't rhyme, makes no sense, and hopefully got an F.
Mary: BRILLIANT ENDING, 5 STARS
what was the crystal for? why did Buz steal Zach's ship, and why did he give it up so easily? does Zach ever go home? does the rest of his family even know Breon died? BEATS ME MAN
it's amazing. it's so bad. half the cringe comes from the inescapable knowledge that i made my family members read this. thank god i don't remember how they reacted
i bet Breon faked his death maybe he gave Zach the ship in hopes his secret lover Buz would bump him off in the process of stealing it. then they'd take the crystal, pawn it, and go off to start a new life together. Buz's daughter Amandia helps out and comes to live with them. Noah never gets his own ship. the end.

Ao no Exorcist Fujo-o hen Drama CD : Akuma to Hanami
Recently got my hands on the seven (7) AoEx drama CDs, so I decided to translate them. Or at least some of them, not really sure if I’ll translate them all since there’s quite a lot. Just like Salaryman Exorcist or the light novels, they’re not entirely canon but still fun to listen to. As a side note, I will go back to translating Salaryman Exorcist soon-ish.
Of course me being me, I start with the last of them - the sole Drama CD for AoEx season 2, “Akuma to Hanami”. All the tracks are very short (the longest lasting 5 and a half minutes) for a total of 25 minutes, so it’s also a very short read (10-ish pages). Too bad there’s no Drama CD involving characters introduced in this arc, such as the Shima family, Mamushi or Tatsuma. But at the same time, thank god because I love listening to Kansaiben but I hate translating it hahaha
Anyway, enjoy! It’s spoiler-free so okay for anime-only btw!
Ao no Exorcist Fujo-o hen Drama CD : Akuma to Hanami
General TL Note :  Hanami or flower viewing/cherry blossom viewing, consists of appreciating the cherry blossoms (in april for Tokyo, but cherry trees start blossoming as soon as in january/february in Okinawa), while picnicking and partying. Quite the big deal in Japan, with reservations and plans made months prior.

IDOLiSH7 Ep. 7 - Ray of Light
They had to remind us of their moment just to also remind us of their fall out LMFAO
You know what i get it yeah when it comes to members in groups that get super popular. It basically happens in every single group, it’s almost unavoidable (and don’t come at me saying any insert group bc you know that’s a lie). I know when it can get super biased towards one member and a company pushes them to the front and center too much it can cause not just a rift between fans but also within members themselves. Like obviously, I can totally see why a company would want to capitalize on a member’s fame because logically it makes the most sense. More exposure to them means more money, but if there’s anything i learned about trickle down economics (is that it’s a fucking joke) is that this kinda thing doesn’t work in the long term for the benefit of an entire group. This kind of dynamic has no right way to go about it, but it needs the cooperation of the whole group for it to work. Popular members NEED to also advocate for their peers and set it straight. The times i see this happen in real life I find generally really benefits the whole group. They gain more respect from their fans and their other members get appreciation. But anyways that’s just a small little anecdote. Not super well thought out, but there’s probably more i could say but yeah.
WHAT THE HELL YOU TWO ARE TALKING TO HIM
DID NO ONE TELL YOU TO NOT TALK TO STRANGERS
Don’t fall for it
BRO THATS WEIRD
PSA RESEARCH IS NOT LOOKING INTO PEOPLE’S FAMILY. THAT’S JUST STALKING AT THAT POINT.
BRO THAT’S FUCKED UP
BUT WHY ARE YOU THE ONE WHO LOOKED THAT UP YOU WEIRDO
BROOOO LISTEN TO HIM THIS IS BLACKMAIL
ALSO THIS IS CALLED IDOLISH7 NOT IDOLISH6
That’s right. ✨ Communication is key ✨
God bless Nagi
DEBUT OKDESU
THATS RIGHT YOU GOTTa wait what
Ur separating them
YEARS?
DAMN LIKE A REAL ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY I GET IT
That’s right IDOLiSH7 not IDOLiSH2
Where are his eyes i just noticed
Hold up i gotta see these names
WSHLASH, Strawberries, DuO (??? cmon you can do better than that), Re:vale looks like they could be another group of characters here lol, oh and there’s TRIGGER and there’s our seven. WITH RIKU NOT WEARING A SHIRT A G A I N
Lmaooo mr capitalist assumes there were connections involved which indicates that’s how he’s able to raise his talents to popularity and not necessarily just from his own talent
Not a diss to trigger btw, they probably would have been popular regardless but they’ve already made it clear that they’ve crushed everyone in their path to the top
Who tf are you
High key both groups songs aren’t amazing so like LMAO
IS HE GONNA STEAL THE FUCKING SONG LMFAO
betting on that
A slow… debut song… interesting ?
Or is it not their debut
Idk how this works
Y’all just need to utilize his cuteness I guarantee it’ll work
YOU CAN BE CUTE DO YOU KNOW THE POWER OF CUTENESS IN THIS KINDA INDUSTRY ITS A REAL SKILL FRFR
Damn this ship is crazy
Wish I knew what it was called
IoRiku ? Idk don’t come for me
Everyone shut up nagi’s singing
Oh it’s over (i know i say this every time)
Episode 6 - Triumphant Return in the Rain
Episode 8 - Please, Music

the long awaited wip graveyard post
i thought the title was fitting for halloween :p
this post is an assorted collection of all my old thaw wips that i deemed not good enough to post, but didn't want to just rot away in my folder, so now they're here.
enjoy !
-
the Eye post
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
fun fact: i used the same seven colored pencils for both the thes eye and the tommy one, i just made the grayer shades more emphasized for the latter. thought that was a neat little detail.
Tumblr media
q's eye here makes his skin look a lil more purple
i impulsively gave quackity an eyebrow when i didn't sketch it before, and the way it turned out bothered me >:((
Tumblr media
not a wip because i absolutely would never give this abomination its own post, but this is basically what my scratch paper sheet looks like when i want to test out how different colors look with each other, and also get a really, Really rough idea of what the final product will look like. this is the process i go through Every time i draw something serious. 😭
peep all 7 colors of the chaosduo's eyes under the thes eye practice
LMAO AND THE THES FACE 8 SECOND SKETCH LOOKS LIKE HE'S ON DRUGS IT'S SO SILLY
can you see me struggling to figure out how to wrap the rune around q's pupil? and also how to make the rune not just Completely disappear bc of how dark his eye is? yeah. traditional art is a pain is the ass sometimes, but i'm still wayy better at it.
also shoutout to @alexanderwesker for giving me an idea of what the rune on q's eye looks like, because i like being as accurate as i can when i draw stuff, so that was very much appreciated!
the part 2 to the hero's journey comic
Tumblr media
i went fucking Ham during the hero's journey assignment, so much so that i literally planned like 19 more panels than what you saw in the original post (27 panels planned in total). but then i realized that i had like Four Whole Days to do that assignment, and would definitely not be able to do that many, especially not without burning out.
so i instead settled for the very first 8 panels that i planned (though even then, i had to abridge a lot of it, and also cut slime entirely from it, bc otherwise those 8 would have been 14 whole panels, and i think i would actually die-), since that was just enough to show two different steps of the hero's journey (crossing the threshold and meeting the mentor btw. i could probably do a whole analysis on how wesker's stories fit into the hero's journey if i wanted to, but i'm lazy rn and this post is already pretty long), and that was the big grading requirement. (i got 100% on that assignment btw 💪and my english teacher still has no clue that he graded minecraft fanfiction fanart LMAO) but this one is what i would have included if i had more time on the project, and could include more of the story, but as it stands, i made this one in my own leisure, because comics are fun to do.
anyways, with that little rant aside, i tried my best to make q look younger than quackity, and really accentuate the difference between them. idk how i feel about how q turned out though.
i'm really proud of the paneling, and i'm also kinda proud of the first frame with quackity's face in particular bc i thought it looked cool, like an actual comic book or something. but i couldn't figure out the card physics or perspective and that's what ultimately made me choose to abandon it 💔 maybe i'll try attempting this page again when i'm feeling more daring (as well as the other panels that i still haven't even drawn yet), but this wip has been collecting dust for a couple of months now so i figured i'd share it here anyway.
Palido
Tumblr media
i drew palido a bit ago, but bro got somehow managed to get crinkled in my bag, even while literally being Inside of my sketchbook 🤨
it's not Too awfully noticeable though, especially bc the fold isn't On the drawing itself, so i might be able to salvage him and post a finished version someday... but i kinda halted progress on him for the time being bc of it, so here he is. </3
"Am I Still Even Me?"
Tumblr media
i 1000% want to redraw this someday, just because i think the idea behind it is so fucking neat.
honestly, this one wasn't too bad at all, especially since i did all of it (besides the bones bc i think my health professions teacher would be disappointed if i got them wrong, and also the rune bc i care way too much about accuracy) without any reference, which is a pretty impressive feat for me and my aphantasia. but yeahh i think it could definitely be better, and really, this drawing was ultimately something that i just drew in class to keep myself busy for a bit bc i had way too much freetime that day. it wasn't intended to be post-worthy or anything.
but i think that the idea behind it is definitely post-worthy. maybe i'll even add a thes and/or youngerbur addition once i get more information about them and just how they've changed yk.
i had no clue how to draw the bones in that position, i probably could've done more research but. yeah no i don't have an excuse, i just couldn't be bothered that day lmao.
i was also gonna bloody q's hands a bit if i ever got to the coloring stage. like a little nod to when he lost himself to Madness. is the blood actually there? who knows, we're seeing it from his eyes, so for all we know, the rune isn't even lit up either, and he's just remembering it being so. remembering the moment he acted so unlike how he used to be.
the bones are definitely there for charlie though, poor guy...
also can y'all tell that i drew the rune in like. 5 seconds. bc yeah.
i had way more wips to share but i have literally no clue where they went, and also the tumblr picture limit is getitng close so ig that's all for now </3
like for a part 2 (whenever i accumulate enough wips to warrant a post, that is)

Clari! Where would one find fics involving the twins, Touya and Dabi?
hello my luv!!! the ‘official’ fic aka the main series for my twins AU hasn’t been posted yet because i am still working on it!!! <33 however, you can find tons of information on the twins (their tendencies, backgrounds, etc) + little drabbles in their tag! my personal favourites are:
taking twin!dabi to therapy
the twins punish you for rolling your eyes
a trip to the zoo with twin!dabi
the twins react to you saying “make me”
dabi wishes he was as good as touya at aftercare
begging the twins to go out to see a friend on a friday night

Hi! I saw that requests are open, if it's not a problem could i request Satan reacting to MC coming to him with new books every time they hang out because they want him to read them out loud since they have a short attention span? Like, Satan would be reading said book while MC is drawing or doing something else.
I have adhd and reading books that are not digital is a nightmare for me, so him reading out loud would be pretty relaxing.
Btw it's up to you if you wanna do headcanons or a oneshot!
ABSOLUTELY!!! So this is actually my first request and I'm super excited because as someone who also has ADHD I can totally relate! I hope you like it!
Too Still, Too Quiet
GN!MC with ADHD Summary: Satan notices that MC seems to have a hard time hanging out with him; he's determined to get to the bottom of the issue and find a solution.
After living in the House of Lamentation for nearly a year, you've grown accustomed to the many quirks that came with living with the seven Lords of the Devildom. You had gotten close to the brothers, and as they picked up on your symptoms for your ADHD, they each found their own ways of being helpful. Lucifer had always known, as it was written on your file, and made a point of sending you subtle reminders throughout the day to keep you organized and on task. He brushed it off saying that it merely prevented him from having to go after you later on if you forgot or did something incorrectly.  Mammon was no stranger to having a hard time prioritizing and staying focused and took pride in lending you some of the different tools he used to fidget with. After all, his human deserved the best, and you couldn’t get any better than using something that belonged to the great Mammon. Leviathan’s room provided a relaxing atmosphere with just enough stimulation to keep your brain satisfied enough to focus on your school work and tasks. The sounds of the aquarium provided a fantastic back ground noise, and Levi always took caution in wearing his headphones when he gamed if you were working in his room to not add to the distractions around you.  Asmodeus had a good eye for when you were growing too frustrated by the regular chaos that tended to fill the House of Lamentation and would pull you aside to his room for some self-care to help calm you down. There was nothing like a head message and face mask from Asmo as he happily gossiped about the latest drama in The Fall to help ground you.  Beelzebub, on the other hand, was great at noticing when you were starting to grow restless. In those moments, he’d not-so-subtly state that he was heading to the gym and it’d sure be nice if he had someone to join in before very obviously making eye contact with you. At first you had a hard time figuring out a good balance between a work out that satisfied Beel while also not killing you. But now the two of you easily worked with each other until you were both sweating, smiling, and happy. He also made sure to remind you to eat through out the day whenever you went to a round of hyper-fixation on something. Belphegore wasn’t particularly helpful when it came to your forgetful spells or disorganization as, being the Avatar of Sloth, he would normally encourage such behavior. Instead, he did what he did best, and helped put your wandering mind to ease whenever you were trying to sleep.  The only person, and not for a lack of trying, that you just couldn’t seem to find a flow with was Satan. 
He was too quiet and organized for you to be able to stand being around him for long periods of time. You had tried hanging out with him a couple of times, but after a few minutes of him silently reading or him explaining whichever text he was currently studying, you would grow restless and distracted.  Which brought you to your current situation.  Satan had invited you to come relax in his room with him, as the rest of his brothers were dealing with the aftermath of their most recent dilemma. It wasn’t so bad at first, some light conversation here, some banter there, but soon your mind started to wander off to the spines of the endless books around you as you pondered on what might be inside them.  “MC?”  Your attention snapped back onto Satan, who stood frowning at you. You blushed and scratched the back of your neck. “Oh, I’m sorry. I got a little distracted. What were you saying?”  Satan sighed as his frown deepened.  “I’ve noticed that tends to happen a lot with you. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!” He quickly amended raising his hands in defense. “But it seems particularly bad when you’re with me. You get quite jittery and I don’t think you’ve ever stayed in my room longer than ten minutes,” for a second his eyes almost looked sad as he looked over at you, “Is it something I’m doing? Do I make you uncomfortable?”  “No! Satan, no, it’s not you I promise!” You quickly reassured moving closer to him. “It’s just well I have a hard time staying still and focusing on things and when it gets too quiet it bothers me because then my brain is like hyper fixating on the smallest noises in the room, even though I’m supposed to be focusing on what you’re saying or my work, and it’s like, is that a page a turning or a something scratching at the door and then I start wondering about what kind of things could be in here and-”  “MC.” Satan cut off, though he didn’t seem annoyed. In fact, his eyes now gleamed with a sense of understanding. “Do you happen to have ADHD?”  “Yeah, I thought you all knew? Lucifer told all of you when I arrived right? That’s why everyone is so-” you moved your hand in a vague gesture that even you weren’t entirely sure what it was meant to symbolize.  Satan huffed and shook his head. “Lucifer did no such thing. I imagine he would’ve told us if it came to be a big enough problem. But you know him. He takes pride in being the only one to know certain things. “  You frowned and tilted your head in confusion. “But then what about the others? They’ve all been helping me out for months now.”  Satan placed a hand under his chin in thought, “They most likely took note of individual symptoms and decided to help. Belphegore, and possibly even Leviathan and Asmodeus may have put two and two together, but the rest probably think you’re just forgetful or that you’re restless,” he smiled reassuringly at you, “but that’s besides the point. Now that I know, I can help make you feel more at ease when you’re with me. What’s the main issue that you-” “It’s too quiet!” You quickly cut off, causing Satan to raise an eyebrow. “When we’re in here relaxing and you’re just reading and I’m supposed to be reading too, it’s too quiet. I try to focus on the book, but my mind keeps jumping around to other things. And I want to read all those books you’ve recommended to me, I really do, but I start feeling bored after a little while and next thing I know I jumping sentences without noticing and then I’ve gone an entire chapter with no recollection of what I’ve just read because I wasn’t really paying attention to the words at all I was just flipping pages without realizing it, so I have to go back and re-read the whole thing all over again!” You throw your hands in the air in frustration. “Is exhausting and makes me feel dumb, so I get up and do something else instead.”  Satan nodded, taking in every word carefully. “Well first of all,” you yelped as he flicked your forehead.  “Ouch! What was that for?!”  The demon smirked and crossed his arms over his chest. “For calling yourself dumb. Just because you have more difficulty with literature than others, does not mean you’re dumb. You simply require a different reading strategy than what most consider “usual”, and I believe I have a solution that would suit both of us,” you perked up at his words. “I recommended those books to you because I greatly enjoyed them myself. How about, when you’re here, you can choose a book you want to read, and I will read it out loud for you? That should help, yes?”  A light airy warmth filled your chest at just how accommodating Satan was willing to be. “But what about the books that you were reading?”  The demon shrugged, “I can always read them in my spare time.” He moved closer to take your hands into his, silently demanding your full attention. “I want to spend more time with you and get to know you better. I want you to be comfortable and be able to be yourself when you’re around me without feeling stressed. This is honestly the least I could do for you, MC.”  Blushed rushed to your cheeks as you felt your heart flutter in your chest. You awkwardly cleared your throat and took your hands back, rubbing them on your legs as you noted how clammy they were. “I think I-I would like that a lot” The grin on Satan’s face widened as he took one of your hands and lead you deeper into the bookshelves of his room. “Splendid! Then why don’t we get try right away? Take you pick, MC, I will be your narrator for the evening and for as long as you wish.”  ***** I hope this was something along the lines of what you were looking for! It is a little short, but I hope you like it. Thank you so much for the request, I loved it! Requests are OPEN and I would definitely love to complete some more if anyone has any ideas or prompts that they’d like me to complete. Just send in an ask and, if I feel comfortable with it, I’ll do my best to make a fic for it!

Hi Bianca! Here's a levihan prompt for you: They meet again in another timeline and when they finally recognize each other, Hange goes, "Let's live together in this lifetime, shall we?"
Hi Izela, thank you for the prompt! I'm sorry for taking so long to write this, I hope you like it!
BTW, I wrote this in two hours in the middle of the night while I listening to "Turning Page" by Sleeping At Last and "Cornelia Street" by Taylor Swift... and you can totally tell lol.
It all began with the simplest of things, situations that could pass as part of Hange’s imagination; someone calling their name, the ghost of a touch on their shoulder, a pull on their hair – strong enough to demand attention, gentle enough not to hurt.
Sometimes, while Hange sat hunched over a table and looked through their microscope, they could hear someone calling their name. “Hurry up, four-eyes. Everyone’s tired of waiting for you.” They looked over their shoulder, expecting to see their assistant calling them for the lunch break, but found nothing but a closed door and an empty lab.
It was nothing like Moblit’s voice either, much deeper and colder than his.
Other times, alone in their house after a long shift, Hange prepared two cups of tea instead of just one. One cup with three spoons of sugar and another one with barely any of it. They stayed there, just staring at the white teacups on the kitchen table… The steaming hot tea slowly turned cold, waiting for someone who would never come.
Hange blamed it on the lack of sleep at first, but then, even their nights became a hunting ground. Dreams of another time slipped inside their mind in incoherent flashes. A mist of tender late nights shared with a close friend, and the violent battles that followed without a warning.
They attributed those bittersweet scenes to residue information that their brain tried to process, maybe an action movie they saw, or a romance novel that filled them with hopeless romantic scenarios…
But nothing was ever just as simple. Those sparks of information, those private moments, were just as confusing as they were recurrent. Insistent. Memories that someone else cherished so much to the point of carrying on to the next world.
A dark forest and the feeling of damp clothes against their body, a quiet confession that didn’t require an answer. Dedicate your heart. Their own body is flames, painting the blue sky in the warmest shade of orange.
As most dreams did, those also faded with the daylight, only bits and pieces remained, locked inside their mind, bringing along their grief and hopelessness. Levi Ackerman. The name rolled out of their tongue so easily as a laugh would.
Hange liked coherent things, they used logic to understand the world around them. If they didn’t have an answer to something that piqued their interest, they’d find one, even if that meant spending late nights obsessing over the computer.
“Who doesn’t have an instagram account these days?” They closed another tab after opening tons of profiles, none similar to their Levi Ackerman.
After the light research about dreams and memories proved ineffective – with the google results leading them to “find out about your past-life” meditation youtube videos – Hange decided to go full-on stalker mode. But finding one particular Levi amongst seven billion people in the entire world was a harder feat to accomplish.
And again, even if they did find him… What then? He may live on the other side of the world. He may speak a different language. He may enjoy life in total reclusion from the problems of modern-day society.
Somehow, that last idea didn’t seem so far-fetched. “Maybe we should just live here, right, Levi?”
The more Hange looked, the more frustrated they got. Curses came out of their mouth as fast as they typed into the search bar of yet another social media website. The same curses always accompanied by his name, already so familiar in their vocabulary.
Their anger brought no results. Hange went to bed when the day broke through the horizon, with deep bags under their eyes, more frustration than one body could endure, and prepared for another set of nightmares.
By the next afternoon, when Hange was close to giving up, a glimpse of hope appeared on their twitter timeline as a suggestion. “Maybe you should follow these accounts...”
The profile had no more information except for his age and a small picture where his face was barely visible – it didn’t matter, Hange could recognize that shade of dark hair easily. The adrenaline rush made them click the request follow button way too fast, and the aftermath of that decision caused them to sit on their couch with their hands clasped together, biting their nails and moving their legs up and down like the anxious mess they were, hoping a new notification would soon pop up.
The notification didn’t come that day, nor the rest of the week. Every day, Hange logged in to their account, just to check, only to be disappointed. Then, when disappointment dimmed, they tried to argue that maybe Levi only accepted people he already knew, or maybe he hadn’t updated his account in years.
“God, I’m acting like a teenager.” They blocked their phone and threw it on the furthest end of the couch.
Searching for Levi led them to a dead-end. Childish illusions. What if Levi accepted their follow request? What would they do then? “I know you have no idea who I am, but I think you’re my soulmate from another life and we should live together until the end of times?”
Right… He’d waste no time blocking me.
Hange decided to give up on chasing useless dreams – or that’s what they tried to believe. The long-lost memories continued to make appearances during the nights, the phantom touches from another life still reverberated on their body, and the absence of someone else grew bolder with each passing day.
During those days, weeks, and then months, longing and loneliness walked hand in hand. The more they dreamed about the unknown, the more they missed it.
Saudade.
***
Winter arrived early that year. Hange decorated the apartment for Christmas in various red, golden, and green ornaments, all as an excuse to celebrate a stranger’s birthday. They placed a few presents under the tree, something he might like, and then stepped outside to the balcony with a warm blanket and two cups of tea – one with three spoons of sugar and another one with barely any of it.
The first snowfall of the year came and covered the streets, cars, and rooftops in white. Some snowflakes sparkled in the light shining from the lamp posts, and Hange took some time to imagine that they were dancing outside, twirling in the cold while someone held their hand.
“It seems as if I’ve waited a million years, already.” They whispered, imagining, hoping, that maybe Levi heard them. “but I can wait a million more for you.”
The lights flickered, a perfect opportunity for their ghosts to come to life. Two small figures emerged from the shadows, swaying from side to side in the middle of the sidewalk, kicking snow everywhere, and almost kissing under the moonlight.
A million years were no match for Hange’s devotion.
***
Summer brought a bit of serenity back to Hange’s life. More work, a regular sleeping schedule, and fewer and fewer dreams. Somehow, they missed those wild nights of dreams and nightmares blurring together. There was no regret in receiving those memories back, Hange concluded that possessing that knowledge was better than staying in the dark about their best friend’s existence.
Maybe Levi was out there, waiting for Hange too. They could only hope that the future would be kinder… That their next life would have more compassion…
“I’m sorry! Do you know where Dr. Hange’s lab is? I just started working here and–” A raspy voice called out for them, shouting their name in a manner too intimate for a first meeting. The person stopped talking once Hange turned around.
There was no such thing as love at first sight, but Hange couldn’t find any other logical explanation to the feeling spilling from their chest – no other explanations besides a deep feeling in their gut screaming that they’ve met before, centuries ago, in another world ravaged by hate.
The sunlight glistened through Hange’s glasses, poorly hiding the tears. The wind brushed Levi’s hair away, revealing his shocked eyes. He looked so young, so free. This life treated him well, apparently. No one deserved it more than him.
Hange called his name at the same time he called theirs, it echoed like a prayer in their lips. The memories, which at that point were merely broken glass shards reflecting a messy story, came together. Hange remembered everything, and they were sure that Levi did too.
In seconds, Levi crossed the sidewalk outside of the college campus and pulled Hange against his body. Their face pressed against his neck, his hands intertwined in their hair, his touch raised a million buried feelings.
“I hope I never lose you… Not this time.” He murmured, voice laced with fear, still hugging them tightly.
“You won’t.” Hange unwillingly stepped back, only to stare into his eyes and smile. They could barely distinguish their own emotions, but something similar to relief resurfaced. With a deep breath, they closed their eyes and pressed their forehead against Levi’s “Let’s live together in this lifetime, shall we?”

The Virgin Diaries
Tumblr media
The one where Armin convinces Bunny that all of her first should be with him.
Warnings: Armin x Oc, vaginal fingering, dry humping, oral (fem receiving), slight dirty talk, inexperienced reader, basically an excuse to write porn cause there’s v little plot. (Also reader is referred to Bunny ) 3.8k word
Bunny chews on her fingernails nervously while her friends chatter around her. She’s not paying attention. Her mind is wandering to the blue-eyed blonde gentleman seated next to her. He laughs and jokes along with the group but her mind is reeling as she recalls his request in her head, on top of that the things he did to her just ten minutes prior to her friend's arrival. He catches her staring up at him and smiles sweetly, he lowers so that he’s leaning in close to whisper in her ear. 
“Everyone is going to think something is wrong with you if you don’t start talking soon,” His breath is warm and sends shivers down her spine. She shut her eyes tight and gulped, she had no idea how she would make it through the rest of the night without being reminded of just how filthy Armin Arlet could be.
                                                          *****
An hour ago
“Bunny! Can you bring me some water please?” Armin’s voice could be heard while she exited the bathroom. She rolls her eyes but heads in the direction of the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water for herself and her friend as well as some snacks. She goes back to her room, and kicks open the door,
“ Armin, Can you at least help me? Everything is fall-” She starts to speak but the sight in front of her makes her freeze in place.  Armin is squatting in front of her bed and there’s an array of books on the ground and in his hand is the hot pink journal that held all her dirty little secrets. She feels a blush creep up her face immediately her thoughts fly to her latest entry only seven hours ago where she wrote in detail the vivid dream from early this morning that had her soaked when she opened her eyes. No this wasn’t happening, the things she wrote in there, she wished the ground would swallow her whole right now.
“Armin?” She calls out. He tilts his head in acknowledgment but he doesn’t answer, instead, he flips the page, Amrin lets out a squeak of surprise before slamming the book shut and turning to face her with a mischievous grin. 
“Who knew Bunny had the hots for damn near everyone in the friend group,” He smirks, and takes a seat on the bed with the notebook sitting next to him. Her eyes scan over to it and she gulps audibly again. 
“Why were you reading that? It’s kind of like an invasion of privacy.” She shouts, she forgets about the snacks and water, choosing to toss them on the desk. 
“I was actually putting something back on the dresser, and then some books dropped, and I saw this tucked away on the shelf, and you know the saying about curiosity and the cat..one thing led to another and now. I have a proposition for you.” He smiles mischievously. He crosses his legs and places his hands over his knee. Her face still burns, and her stomach fills with butterflies
When she doesn’t answer, Armin opens the book to the first page and begins to read it aloud.
“Dear Diary, I have an absolutely embarrassing confession, and it’s eating me alive right now,”  She shakes her head and covers her ears as he continues. 
“Earlier today Mikasa and Sasha came over and Mikasa finally spilled the bean on her and Eren, and they’re totally fucking!” He chuckles but to her dismay, he continues. “That’s good though! Not hating on them but then Sasha admitted to having a thing for Jean and she hinted that they may have hooked up. So of course that leaves me, poor innocent bunny. And Mikasa goes ‘Oh Bunny have you told Sash?’ To which I replied no, and then she tells Sasha that I have been saving my virginity for marriage, which was not the case btw, and then she and Sasha tried giving me sex tips but the only thing I could think of was all the times I could’ve lost my virginity and didn’t. A part of me feels-” 
“Okay okay, no more please.” She shushes him, walking the short space to clamp a hand over his mouth. She had read that entry countless times, and she didn’t want to relive the embarrassment of pouring her emotions out on the page. Especially in front of Armin. He laughs and pulls her down on the bed beside him.
“Sorry Bunny, I just think it’s kind of silly, I mean look at you, you’re….well you're you.” He fumbles with his words turning pink. She hides her face in her hands again and shakes her head, why was this happening. She thought to herself. 
“Hey, I’m sorry. If I overstepped a boundary, I’ll go, I was just shocked is all. The whole virginity thing, I mean half the guys have tried getting at you before but you always denied us of a chance.”
Her brows furrow in confusion she tries to recall if she could detect any hint of flirtation with her friends. There was that time at Connie’s party when Eren and Jean got too drunk and were overly complimentary. She opened her mouth to speak but stopped because there was no way in hell she’d miss those signals. Bunny was on a mission to get laid asap it had been a new year’s resolution but it was already April and so far all she had done was work and go to school. 
“Armin.” She says suddenly, her eyes go wide, and she feels like ice water had been splashed on her. She suddenly remembers a very very very detailed dream of Armin, it was the first of many dreams she had written down, at first she felt guilty but after convincing herself that no one would ever see these entries she started documenting her wet dreams more frequently. 
“Armin, please tell me all you read was the first entry.’” She says it panicked and her eyes go to the hot pink bok he has dangling in his hands. The smile on his face stretched more, the glint of desire in his eyes told her all she needed to know. He opens the book, clears his throat, and begins reading.
“Dear diary, I am going to hell. In a gasoline dress, because what the fuck did I just dream of.” She can’t take it, it’s too embarrassing. She pushes his shoulder and tries to snatch the journal but he’s quicker than her, standing swiftly and turning, he pushes her back and she slips falling on the mountain of pillows on her bed, 
“First and foremost let me just say that Jean looked so fucking good today.” He quirks an eyebrow up at her and makes a kissing noise. Then he continues. 
“But oh boy, Armin looked so damn hot, ” He pauses and looks at her, before continuing, reading the rest of the entry in silence. 
 She was glad the pillows blocked her vision, she couldn’t take this anymore she wished she could die right now, knowing that Armin was reading about her lusting after him.  He scoffed and snapped the book closed. 
“My My that was interesting.” He says. She sits up, biting her bottom lip and twisting her fingers in her hands nervously. 
“Armin, can I have my journal back?’ She asks quietly, and the way she looks at him makes Armin feel just a little guilty. 
“Here you go.” He hands it over and watches in amusement as she shoves the book under the pillow mountain. Then he hears a sniffle and realizes she’s crying. 
“Oh shit I’m sorry, I went too far didn’t I?” He asks, rushing to her side to hug her. She’s limp in his arms, feeling a new wave of embarrassment take over. 
“That’s not it.” She sniffles and he pulls back to look at her. 
“Well, what’s wrong?” He asks, she shakes her head, when she speaks it’s muffled in his chest. 
“Bunny I can’t hear you, and I’m pretty sure you’re going to have boogers on my shirt.” He jokes. It works, she giggles softly and pulls back wiping her eyes she takes a deep breath. 
“It’s embarrassing.” She says after a while. He looks at her in confusion and she lets out a sigh of frustration.
“What? Writing explicitly detailed journal entries? Because I assure you, there are way worse things you could be doing.” He tries to comfort her. 
“No, I mean that’s embarrassing too, but I was talking about my sexual experience. Well, lack of experience.” She sighs and looks away sadly. “Like ever since high school, Mikasa and Sasha were already experienced. Anytime I had a boyfriend and I attempted to do things with them they’d brush me off and say I’m too innocent. What’s the point of trying to be someone’s girlfriend if they don’t want to mess around?” She questions.
“I even went as far as downloading a dating app but no luck there. I just want to get it over with, and maybe I can finally experience what my friends are doing.” She meets Armin’s gaze and feels silly when he stares at her. 
“Sorry I know it’s lame I-”
“No don’t apologize it’s how you feel.” He interrupts her. “I just don’t see why you’d go to a dating app, especially with a stranger. I know you want to get it over with but why not with someone you know? That way the trust is there.” He hits his fist to his palm as if emphasizing his point. 
“Are you offering yourself to take my virginity, Armin?”Bunny looks at him through her lashes, a seductive smile lacing her features.  Armin’s eyes bug out and a blush takes over, his whole face turns red.
 “Oh no, I wasn’t trying to  offer to do that.” He sputters. Her smile drops and she frowns. 
“See this is what I mean. I’m literally offering myself to you on a platter and you’re saying no. It’s gotta be me then. Do you think I’m ugly Armin?” She cries out. Armin’s eyes go wide again. 
“No! No! Bunny no,  I wasn’t offering myself I just think it’s dumb if you use a dating app for your firsts. If you want these things to be special then you should do it with someone you trust. If that someone happens to be me I wouldn’t mind. It’s ultimately up to you.”He shrugs his shoulder up and holds his hand out in front of him. The gesture makes her laugh, and then she looks at Armin like really looks at him, she notices the way his adam’s apple bobs in his throat when he swallows, all she can imagine is marking his pretty skin with love bites, the thought alone has her squirming, without thinking she surges forward, her lips meet his in a heated kiss.  He hesitates until she’s kissing him as if her life depends on it, she clings to his shirt, moaning into his mouth when his tongue slides against hers, he tastes of citrus and mint gum, a taste that she continues to seek when he’s pulling back for a breath. 
“I don’t think we should do anything without talking about it first.” He pants out, her hand is now rubbing his erection lightly through his sweats. He squeezes his eyes shut he needs to focus and not get too carried away. His eyes fly open when she’s fully grabbing him, outlined in sweats he has decent size, it makes her mouth water just thinking that he’d be inside her soon. 
“Bunny!” Armin gasps when she reaches her hand inside his sweats. 
“Arminnn.” She whines dragging out his name. He smirks but still holds both her hands together in his one. She pouts but listens as he talks. 
“Please, I’m serious. I don’t want you to do anything you regret. We don’t even have to have sex tonight. Let me take care of you, and if you want more, we can work on knocking down your lists of firsts and eventually work to taking your virginity.” She’s nodding her head before he can even finish. It makes him laugh, and he lets go of her hands, she’s on him instantly, straddling his lap, and fisting her hands to his shirt. 
Armin lets her guide the kiss, he leans back on his arms while she has her way with him, licking into his mouth, and slotting their tongues against each other, she moans lewdly, her leps tighten around his lap, but still, he lets her get her fill. She tangles her hands in his hair, pulling the hairs at the nape of his neck, he grunts at this action, and his hips shift upward involuntarily grinding his erection into her.  She breaks the kiss then, panting softly in the crook of his neck she moans breathlessly his hands go to her hips she was hovering over him, but he plants her directly on his member, she gasps at the feeling, he brushes against her clothed covered cunt, letting out a groan of his own. 
 “This feels so good.” She moans, Armin agrees with a nod and continues to rut against her.
“Can I try?” She asks, Armin is confused but nods, and she’s pushing him to lie flat on his back, the palms of her hands on his chest keep him down. She grinds her cunt against his member, a soft gasp coming from her. She does this action again, closing her eyes and savoring this sensation. Her pussy clenched she could feel herself getting wetter every time she rubbed herself against him. 
“Armin.” She whispers his name desperately, throwing her head back. Armin can’t take it anymore, if she continues like this he knows he’s going to blow his load in his pants. So he flips them so that she’s on her back now, he moves from in-between her legs to take off her leggings, exposing her purple panties. Armin tosses one of her legs over his own, she feels awkward having her legs spread like this, but then she feels the pads of his fingers pressing through her panties to her clit and she’s back to writhing in his arms. 
“How does this feel?” He whispers in her ear. She shivers and arches into his touch, it feels like the dry humping but ten times better, the butterflies in her tummy are soon replaced with warmth building with each press of his fingers. She can feel her panties get damp with more of her arousal.
“It feels so so good, Armin. I think I’m close.” She whispers breathlessly. Armin kicks it into full gear now, he lifts her shirt, she’s not wearing a bra, and his mouth is on her mounds almost in an instant. The new sensation has her crying loudly,  his mouth is warm and wet and the way he suckles at her nipples has her seeing stars. 
“Armin!” She squeaks, the warmth pooling in her belly feels like it’s about to spill, it’s when he moves her panties to the side and slowly inserts his pointer finger while rubbing her clit that she feels the first waves of her orgasm. 
“Are you cumming pretty?” He asks, she nods her head swiftly, her hands fisting the sheets beneath her in a vice grip. 
“I wanna hear you.” He says, nipping at her ear. He picks up the pace, fingering her wet cunt, and adding more pressure to her cunt. She lefts her hips in time with his thrust, her hands fist his shirt again as she clings to him. 
“It feels so good Armin, I’m cumming.” She moans out losing herself to the warmth that floods through her. She feels a gush of wetness from her cunt and squeezes her eyes shut in embarrassment but Amrin seems to like it because he’s rubbing faster and finger fucking her quicker. She gulps and her hands fly to him below stopping his actions. 
“I can’t.” She says weakly. He kisses her temple and shakes her hand away so that he can move his finger slowly in and out of her, she whimpers but doesn’t stop him, and soon she feels another orgasm rip through her, this time, she has to clamp her leg shut as they shake, Armin is whispering praise in her ear, and she’s not sure if that’s helping or making it worse. 
  When her head doesn’t feel foggy anymore, she opens her eyes and glances at the boy next to her. He’s looking at her with a soft smile, her hands fly to her face in embarrassment. 
“So how did you like that?” Armin asks, he sits up and grabs her discarded leggings to wipe his hands. 
“It was really nice, It felt really nice….Can you do that again?” She asks shyly, still hiding behind her hands. He moves them out of the way to kiss her so softly, that it makes her heartache
“If it’s what you want, of course.” He whispers. His hands go back to circling her clit, and her hips jump again, making her giggle. 
“I want to help make you feel good too.” She says, Armin freezes and that makes her look at him, worry written on her face.
“I have an idea, you can tell me to stop if you don’t want to do this.” He says, She nods and watches as he stands. He takes his sweatpants and underwear down in one swift motion, and then he lies back down on the bed.
  She can’t help the way her eyes automatically travel to his erection. His tip looks so swollen and it’s leaking precum, it makes her mouth water. 
“Stay focused. We’re here to please you.” He laughs when he sees her expression. He opens her legs wide and grabs one of the pillows to fit under her hips. This angles her pussy to his cock perfectly. 
“I want you to tell me how this feels.” He encourages her, but she nods still not sure what he’s going to do until she feels his hands parting her lips and then feels his cock slide up and down on her clit and it feels so much better than what they were just doing she has the throw a hand over her mouth to stop the moan ripping from her. Armin makes a tsk noise and grinds his hips forward with more pressure, she does the same thing, muffling her moans. Armin lets out a noise of frustration, he grabs her hand that's covering her mouth and puts it over her head. 
“I said tell me how this feels.” He grunts grinding against her again. She moans in pleasure, tossing her head to the side, she feels the familiar warmth building in her belly and tries to calm her breathing before she speaks. 
“Armin it feels even better, I feel…so close... So soon.” She moans, and her hands go to her breast, Armin watches in amazement as she rolls a hardened peak in between her fingers, and she pinches the other nipple. Armin focuses on her pleasure, slapping his cock against her clit harshly, her hips jerk up after every hit, and then he’s back to rubbing the tip in between her slit. 
“Fuck bunny you keep doing that and I’m going to cum.” He mutters watching as she played with her nipples some more. She cries out, and Armin feels her arousal slicking the both of them, her lips mold around his cock and it feels so good that Armin almost forgets that this isn’t about him, he has to pull away completely to stop himself from cumming. Instead, he lowers himself so that her pussy is just in his face. She tries to close her legs but his hands hold her legs in place. Armin makes eye contact with her, she’s watching with anticipation, she was so close before he moved, but now that he was down there she felt her nerves go haywire. He must sense her distress because he’s soon kissing and rubbing her inner thigh. 
“Do you want me to do this as well?” Armin asks before dragging his tongue up her slit. She nods her head rapidly. This feels way better than what he was doing before. 
“I want to hear you beg for it,” Armin smirks as a pained expression crosses Bunny’s face. He kisses her other thigh, biting when he gets to the meaty part, she whines and kicks her foot. He raises an eyebrow at her and continues teasing her by rubbing his finger up and down her slit. 
“Arminnnn!” She whines again. He simply chuckles. “Armin please, I want you to make me feel good again.”  Her face goes lax when he drags his tongue up her slit again, he takes his time, kissing her clit, and suckling until she’s squirming in his hold. She watches as he uses a hand to roll her clit while he licks at her tight hole. 
“I want you to cum like this.” He pulls back and says. She nods, her eyes roll to the back of her head a little when he continues licking her. She feels the start of the orgasm again, that earth-shattering, surreal feeling sets in. 
“Come on, give it to me.” He whispers it urgently, it has her lurching forward, crying out as she gushed onto his face. 
“Oh my god, that felt so fucking goooood.” She muttered, covering her face again. Armin laughed at her fucked out expression, he moved so that he was no longer in between her legs ut sitting next to her. 
“So you liked it?” He asks.
“I loved it, Armin, if this is what I’ve been missing, then I one hundred percent wouldn't choose anyone else to explore with. If you were serious, I’d love for you to have my virginity.” Armin doesn’t know if it’s because of what she says or if the crush he swore he had on her was over but he feels his heart leap in his chest at her confession. He opens his mouth to speak but a loud knock at the door has the both of them scrambling, looking for their clothes.
“ Oh shit, what time is it?” Bunny shouts. Armin shrugs, he grabs his phone from his pocket. 
“It’s 7:06.”
“Oh shit! That’s Mikasa and Eren. I was going to hang out with them tonight.” She says. On cue, her phone starts vibration signaling a phone call. 
“Oh my god, what are we going to do?” Bunny groans out.
“Um I can pretend to be in the bathroom and you can get yourself together before you invite them in.” Armin brainstorms. Bunny nods, it’s the best they can come up with.  Armin gathers his things and head to the bathroom while Bunnyfinds a new pair of panties and leggings to change into. 
*****
 When everyone leaves, Bunny cleans up, her mind goes back to Armin, and his offer, and she starts to smile, she couldn’t wait to see what else he had in store for her.
a/n: I can’t get Armin out of my head, this is just a cute fun smutty story I felt like writing, I hope you all enjoy. BFM hit 200 notes yesterday and I just want to thank everyone who has even taken the time out of their day to read my works! I hope you all enjoy this story, I’ve edited and revised to the best of my ability but if I missed anything feel free to lmk! Once again enjoy!

Oz salt? Please spare Oz salt. 🥺
rubs hands. let's do this again because tumblr crashed.
first things first: I want everyone who has ever called him a liar to pay me $20 and then turn in a 40 page essay on how he's a liar, MLA format, sources cited.
now, onto that. everyone harps on ozpin for lying. keyword: lying. they call him a liar, they say they can't trust him, etc. let's talk about this. keeping secrets is not lying. lying is intentionally FALSE statements / information.
so, with that, let's count the number of times ozpin has GENUINELY LIED. that'll be a total of one (1) time. what lie was this? the relic having questions.
this ENTIRE time, everyone has been dragging this poor man by the ankles and punching at him while he's down when he's lied... once.
he's kept secrets, he's kept information to himself. that, by definition, is not lying. keeping secrets is not giving false statements. to keep calling him a liar is inaccurate.
now, let's move onto the way the narrative paints him.
"he forced pyrrha to be the maiden. he didn't give her a choice. he told her to pick or everyone would die. he guilt tripped her." — to that I say, no he didn't. he explained the gravity of the situation. if he didn't tell her the heavy parts, everyone would've ripped him to shreds because he "didn't warn her". he explained what he felt she needed to know: they needed someone to take the other half of amber's power. it's a big decision to make and it will change your life. there are people out there who want their hands on this power and we don't want the wrong person to have it, like cinder. you can take your time to choose. if you don't, we will consider another option.
he gave her the information she needed and he gave her time to think about it. when she accepted, he continuously asks her for consent and if she truly wants this. she said yes multiple times.
on that note, he is not responsible for her death. he told her to LEAVE when cinder attacked. he told her to go get qrow, james and glynda, and then get to safety with the rest of the students. SHE chose to come back and fight cinder all on her own. jaune even begged her not to do it before she shoved him in a locker and launched him away. ozpin is not responsible for her death.
"he's evil because he tried to leave salem and take their kids" — okay so clearly male abuse victims don't exist to you or the narrative. ozma was MANIPULATED by salem. jinn says as much: "the hearts of men are easily swayed." this is said over salem goading ozma into being a false god with her. he continuously questioned their choices, he was consumed with guilt, his host even asked him wtf was going on.
when their daughter came into her power, ozma decided to lay the truth out, and with it came the horror of salem wanting to USE their daughters to start a new generation of magic-users. she SAID it, right to his face. he BACKS AWAY IN DISGUST AND HORROR. his logical thought then was to LEAVE. wouldn't you if your spouse decided they wanted to use your children??
it astounds me because if the roles were reversed, ozma would be the villain and salem would be justified in leaving. interesting, isn't it?
next, we have the girls ripping his past away from him and then blasting him for hiding information. this... look, I don't care how "urgent" it was, there is NO excuse for doing this. if this had happened to blake when she was keeping secrets about being in the white fang or being with adam, the characters and audience would be livid, especially when the white fang were written as dangerous terrorists and adam was written as an abuser. they're dangerous, they posed threats. if this had happened to blake, if someone forced her trauma out into the open, they would be in the wrong. but because it's ozpin, it's fine.
moving on. "lying about lionheart." — this is just ridiculous. telling the world "hey, the headmaster of haven, who was a faunus by the way, was actually the one behind huntsmen dying and the attack on the school as well as contributing to the fall of beacon." it sends a BAD message and sets the human-faunus relationship back even further. ozpin chose not to tell the people about lionheart betraying them because not only would it cause issues, he also says that he would rather people believe in all the good leo had previously done. your mistakes don't define you, that kind of logic.
"oz lied about the lamp attracting grimm" — no he didn't. he didn't SAY that it did. that's not a lie. he kept it a secret so the students wouldn't worry and actually attract grimm. which, by the way, interesting how that "attraction" seemed to have disappeared by the time v7 and 8 dropped. never once saw grimm following them around because of the lamp. the only grimm that actively attacked were the ones coming through the hole in the wall. weird, huh? almost like the story NEEDED something for the characters to be mad at oz about.
anyway, I'm gonna move on. the fact that ozpin received ZERO apologies and / or sympathy, especially from those we'd expect it from (ruby, weiss, blake) is infuriating. EMERALD was forgiven in a heartbeat, and she actively helped cause the fall of beacon, she helped kill penny, she killed a faunus in vale to prove a point to cinder (who got mad at her for, btw), she helped frame yang into "attacking" mercury so she'd look violent, she worked for salem by proxy of cinder. emerald did way much worse than ozpin, and she was forgiven !! in that same episode, ozpin is given dirty looks and "hm, idk if we can still trust you." hell, HE apologized. he had NOTHING to apologize for. these kids were in the wrong, especially when they lied throughout all of volume seven and then were justified for it. "you're not like oz, you're trusting people to prove themselves first." uh. you mean like ozpin was doing???? these students actively lied to ironwood for most of v7 until it finally caught up to them, and then they were STILL in the right. yet they got on ozpin and still reprimand him.
idunno man, I'm so tired. this isn't even the half of it but I'm angry all over again.
in any case, ozpin isn't perfect, he has made some really stupid mistakes (CCT towers that cause global disconnection when one tower falls, etc.), but like, he's not the devil either.

the sixth sense - mona x gn reader
anon said: um hi!! you said you wanted some requests, and i came up with an idea! would i be able to request a mona fic where the reader is rlly spontaneous and a risk-taker but they have terrible judgment, and because of her abilities, she basically has a sixth sense that tells her when her s/o is about to do something kinda stupid? i think it would be a cute dynamic :,)
hi anon!! this is such a cute dynamic omg ur mind 💆‍♀️💆‍♀️ i dont really have much to say besides i hope yall like this!! i also hope its what you expected anon! BTW CHILDE RERUN IM AAAAAAAAAAAA
word count: 870
warnings: none!
fluff, slight crack
you were always a very spontaneous person.
it wasn’t something awful, but it wasn’t something great either. while it helped you with some kinds of stuff, it could be a curse on itself too. you suddenly felt a strong urge to eat vegetarian abalone in the middle of the night, but you had no matsutake nor snapdragon? fear not, why not go to the outskirts of springvale to get some matsutake, maybe near that hilichurl tribe there, and then go to windrise to get some snapdragon?
and that’s exactly what you were doing right now.
maybe some could call you a risk-taker, but you wouldn't really say that. you just really wanted vegetarian abalone, and it isn’t going to make itself, right? you’re not gonna run into anything dangerous, of course. if anything, you knew how to defend yourself, you just happened to run into a lot of dangerous situations very quickly, but that had nothing to do with your spontaneity, or so you thought.
it was in one of those dangerous situations that you met mona, the astrologist whom you sometimes read her columns in newspapers. you were just strolling around starsnatch cliff, looking for some flowers to make a flower crown, when you plucked a sweet flower and suddenly, a pyro whopperflower appeared! thankfully, mona was also strolling around that area, and quickly defeated the whopperflower. 
she then told you that you should’ve been more careful, because, if not for her accurate previsions, you’d be in serious danger. what she didn’t tell you, though, was that she made no prevision — she just felt something was wrong, and started to look around to see what was wrong. 
you ended up giving her the flower crown you’ve been making as a thank you gift, and that’s how your relationship with mona megistus started. 
maybe it was fate, mona thought at the time. it was then that this so-called “sixth sense” of mona started to happen. she would make absolutely no previsions, and yet she could know when you were about to do something you’d really regret later. be it buying a new expensive book in impulse, just so it ended with you not even liking it or reading it after 20 pages, or be it you getting yourself in some really dangerous situation without your knowledge. 
in any case, the moment you arrived in windrise, mona woke up in a cold sweat.
wait, something is wrong, she thought. she looked over to the clock on her wall — 1 am. mona thought of going back to sleep, since she fell asleep on her desk, writing the next column of the newspaper, but she could sense something was about to happen. after shaking off the initial sleepiness, she quickly realized what it was about. y/n! 
mona quickly got up and got her weapon — just in case. then, she teleported to windrise, near the statue of the seven. she looked around, frantically searching for you. after some seconds of searching, she finally spotted you. 
you were near the river, looking for snapdragons. as you looked over, there was something sticking out of the dirt, and it looked like a radish. it wouldn’t hurt to get some radish, right? you thought, making your way to remove it from the ground. as you were about to pluck it, mona screamed at you.
“y/n, wait! that’s a-”
as you retreated your hand from the alleged plant, you heard a noise coming from it. suddenly, it jumped from the ground, and you yanked back, reaching for your weapon.
“...dendro slime”
mona teleported herself near you, fighting the slime with ease and defeating it quickly. thankfully, it was a small one, not the big ones that live near windrise. she turned around after defeating it, looking at you with a deadpan — and slightly sleepy — face. 
“y/n, we’ve talked about this before” she proclaimed, crossing her arms in slight worry. “it’s 1 am! what are you trying to do here?”
“...vegetarian abalone?” you replied, trying to make a cute face to convince her it’s totally fine to go out at 1 am to collect vegetables. but you knew the way to win her heart again. “do you want some? it’s completely free, from yours truly”
mona looked around, trying to pretend her stomach was not growling and she wasn’t interested. “hmmm… maybe i’ll accept the offer. but please, don’t go out at 1 am unaccompanied again! if it wasn’t for my previsions, you’d be screwed” she proclaimed, trying to sound angry, but your cute face was just too much for her.
“...ehe?” you replied, knowing what she was saying was true. but what could you do? that vegetarian abalone wasn’t gonna be made by itself.
“what are you saying ‘ehe’ for?! you’re lucky i love you a lot” mona crossed her arms again, until the realization of what she had said hit her. she started to blush and cough, and you wouldn’t waste this opportunity. you both made your way back to mondstadt with your ingredients in hand, playful mockings and a free meal for mona.
maybe this sixth sense isn’t so bad.

BnHA Chapter 280: I Am Red Riot
Previously on BnHA: The pro heroes over at Gunga Mountain struggled against Gigantomachia and the League until finally Midnight was all, “fuck it, let’s just put the kids in charge.” Momo immediately got to work organizing a sophisticated counteroffensive involving an exploding swamp, a bunch of sedative cans, and a massive coordinated team attack. I gotta tell you guys, it’s really something to watch a large-scale group attack in which all of the team members are actually competent. I don’t know what Japan put in the water when all these sixteen-year-olds were growing up, but that shit has paid off big time, and basically the only reason Machia hasn’t gone down yet is because he cheated and was all “sneeze” and the kids all got blown away because they are little and because he is really, really big. Anyway so then Dabi set the forest on fire because he loves doing that, and the chapter ended with Mina using her Acid Man attack to make herself FUCKIN’ FIREPROOF so she could charge through the woods ready to save the day and stuff!
Today on BnHA: Mina launches herself straight at Machia like the beautiful corrosive wild child she is, but then everything goes to shit when she recognizes him from that one time she almost got murdered while giving a strange man directions. Just when it’s looking like she might get killed for real this time, KIRISHIMA SHOWS UP TO SAVE THE DAY AND SHOVES HER TO SAFETY AND IS ALL “BOTTOMS UP” AND HEAVES A LITERAL CAN OF WHOOPASS RIGHT IN MACHIA’S MOUTH. At this point the grown-ups are all “oh wow look at that, time for us to take over for you kids now, don’t worry we’ve got it all under control” because Oh Those Wacky Pros and all that, but at least Majestic finally deigns to show his face so that’s a plus! The chapter ends with us cutting back to the Jakku battle, where Tomura is curled up in a little ball all “curse you heroes, how dare you [checks notes] save people all the time”, which is a real take and a half. Anyway so things are looking up, which can only mean everyone is about to die. That’s how it works, right. Shit.
HOLY SHIT LOL
Tumblr media
THIS IS MINA. SHE’S REALLY COOL AND SHE CAN MELT PEOPLE. um, the hell kind of tagline is that?? holy fucking shit?? “melt and succumb”?? IS THE SUCCUMB PART REALLY NECESSARY. IS THAT NOT ALREADY IMPLIED. it’s like saying “die and then perish”, which actually sounds really badass and I’m about to make it my new go-to threat actually so you know what never mind. where the fuck were we anyway
“IS EVERYONE SAFE” some absurdly bad-at-gauging-situations kid from class B is yelling while the forest is on fire and all the kids are recovering from having been catapulted fifty miles by King Dodongo’s windy yeet breath. of course they are safe, sweet child. of course everyone is absolutely fine, why the fuck would they possibly not be safe after something like that
KAMINARI NOOO MY POOR SWEET BABY
Tumblr media
AT LEAST HE’S STILL CONSCIOUS ENOUGH TO MAKE STUPID JOKES. holy shit this baby got concussed to hell and back and then Machia turned him and the others into precipitation and he wasn’t in any kind of state to even try to land safely, I hope to god someone caught him
Sero is all “is there anyone still in range!” and damn, I like that he’s taking charge and trying to regain their momentum. he is so criminally underrated. I feel like he’s in the top six or seven of class 1-A kids who I would most trust to take charge. which is very high praise because that class has a lot of charge-taking kids
SPEAKING OF
Tumblr media
it “probably” can’t get through her acid, she says. my god. sometimes the spirit of Plus Ultra just takes ahold of these kids and it’s like, I want to ruffle their hair proudly and then grab them by the shoulders and shake them vigorously because WHERE EVEN IS YOUR SELF-PRESERVATION WHY DO NONE OF YOU HAVE IT GODDAMMIT AIZAWA REALLY SHOULD HAVE EXPELLED YOU GUYS AFTER ALL
man. and yet I really do love this “be the one who can do it” stuff. what a heroic fucking attitude dfjfklks. I’ll just go put on my humongous sandwich board that reads GIANT FUCKING HYPOCRITE and go stand in the corner
damn it this week’s scan is annoyingly dark, it’s really hard to tell what’s going on but it looks like the pros are attacking Machia and the League at long last. way to go guys it only took you seven years but you finally hopped to it
MINA WHY IS THE ACID COMING OFF OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. PUT IT BACK!!!
Tumblr media
I KNOW SHE’S NOT GONNA DIE DAMMIT BUT AHHHHH AHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH
okay what the hell is up with these weird zen proverbs though
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“your fear stricken heart”, “the shortest path”, what the fuck even is this. whose thoughts are these. normally these translations are honestly decent enough but I gotta say this time around I’m totally being thrown for a loop lmao
(ETA: FYI I’m only just now realizing that he was saying the shortest path to Master, as in Tomura, not “master” as in to master something fjkldjskf lol some delayed reading comprehension there. so basically he’s just bitching about how annoying these little “flies” are proving to be.)
JESUS CHRIST
Tumblr media
okay is it just me, or is Gigantomachia suddenly showing intelligence in his eyes instead of mindless animal instinct the single most pants-shitting thing you’ve ever seen?!! holy shit. the way he just LOOKS at her out of nowhere all of a sudden?? holy fucking shit DO NOT HURT MT. LADY OH MY GOD I’M FREAKING THE FUCK OUT. AND DON’T YOU DARE HURT MINA EITHER!! JUST FUCKING DIE AND PERISH
but also though, is that recognition in Mina’s eyes?? because even though this dude is 80 feet tall now, her encounter with him a couple years back had to have been one of the more memorable experiences of her young life. damn I was wondering when this would finally come into play
OKAY YES THE NEXT PAGE IS A FLASHBACK OH SHIT
Tumblr media
this has nothing to do with anything but Mina just has the prettiest hair, btw, and this “just woke up covered in acid” look is a particularly good one on her. it looks so soft and fluffy, like damn. this is like Shouto-hair-billowing-in-the-wind levels of pretty here
NOOOOO
Tumblr media
oh my god holy shit?! putting her back in the school uniform to show the slip in her mentality is a PUNK MOVE, HORIKOSHI, and I respect the shit out of you for it you manipulative bastard. goddammit. bracing myself for the incoming wave of Mina feels... here they come... they’re a lot... let’s see if I can latch on to anything I can actually figure out how to describe in words
okay well here’s one, my respect for Mina’s bravery just went up like a thousand percent in this instant, because now we know this was actually such a traumatizing event for her that hearing Machia’s voice again years later immediately sent her into a full-blown flashback. she was that scared and yet she still stood up to him and didn’t hesitate. and now I’m remembering how her knees just buckled right afterwards, and just...
and this visual, though!! what a brutally effective way to show that in her mind she went right back to being that scared middle schooler again for a moment. god fucking damn. holy shit you guys is Kirishima fireproof because if he comes waltzing out of the woods next I don’t even know what I’m gonna do. lolo kids getting traumatized left and right this arc is fucking merciless
um eXCUSE ME!?!?!
Tumblr media
YOU MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT LET GO OF HER RIGHT NOW OR I AM GONNA LOSE IT!!
THAT’S NOT WHAT I MEANT!!
Tumblr media
holy shit he could have fucking snapped her neck like that??! I don’t like this at ALL WHAT THE FUCK
OKAY SERIOUSLY
Tumblr media
I’M GONNA NEED ANOTHER KID TO STEP IN HERE WITH A LAST MINUTE SAVE LIKE RIGHT THE FUCK NOW, OR I AM GOING TO THROW MY COMPUTER OFF A FUCKING CLIFF AND MOVE TO THE DESERT AND BECOME A HERMIT AND NEVER READ MANGA ON THE INTERNET AGAIN
OH THANK GOD
Tumblr media
TODAY WE SPELL “REDEMPTION” K-I-R-I... ETC. THERE’S A LOT OF LETTERS BUT YOU GET THE DRIFT!!!
holy fucking shit y’all. I mean, it’s not like it came out of nowhere, like the setup could not have been more obvious, but let me assure you that none of the predictability lessened the actual impact of this moment in the SLIGHTEST. Horikoshi really wrote a flashback scene one hundred and thirty five chapters ago and planted it, watered it once a day, and patiently waited for THREE LONG YEARS until he could finally harvest the badass fruits of his labor in the midst of his most epic arc to date. I’m so fucking hyped I’ll even forgive him for sacrificing Mina’s big moment and having her get rescued, because it’s such a good reversal. he didn’t freeze up this time. he promised himself he’d never freeze again and he didn’t and he saved her and god fucking damn. anyways so now Machia is going to treat him like a fucking action figure though but he’s a solid little dude he can take it hopefully
NO WHAT IS THIS!!! STOP KILLING MY MOOD!!!
Tumblr media
she better not be dead!! SHE BETTER NOT FUCKING BE DEAD I WILL RUN MY PC THROUGH A PAPER SHREDDER AND GO AND LIVE ALONE WITH MY FEELS ON A MOUNTAIN IN TIBET
CHINTETSU!!
Tumblr media
well we know he’s fireproof. another callback at the least expected of times lmao
so Tetsu’s all “yeah Kirishima’s not really all that fireproof but he totally ran over here anyway to save you. oh wait that probably wasn’t very comforting of me to say.” maybe that’s why it seems like he might not have actually said it out loud, now that I’m reading this over again. good call Tetsu
ARE YOU STANDING UP AND CASUALLY STRETCHING OUT YOUR BACK
Tumblr media
I CAN’T EVEN BELIEVE HOW MUCH I HATE THIS GUY RIGHT NOW. WE’RE REACHING LEVELS OF HATRED RESERVED FOR NAZIS AND PEOPLE WHO WALK TOO SLOWLY IN FRONT OF ME IN A GROUP SHOULDER TO SHOULDER INSTEAD OF SINGLE FILE SO I CAN PASS IN FRONT OF THEM. YOU’RE A FUCKING TOURIST IN NYC YOU PIECE OF SHIT
lmao he’s just dropping this random hero person and letting him fall to his doom wheeeeee
Tumblr media
remind me to leave all of the League of Villains’ texts on read for the foreseeable future. goddamn. I still love you guys but also, fuck you so damn hard
OHO A LIL RED SCALY BOI ISN’T DONE YET!!
Tumblr media
real talk, just between you and me, I’ll lower my voice so that Kirishima can’t hear. so uh. we all agree that even if Kiri is fireproof and squishproof, that little can of tranquilizer juice technically shouldn’t have been, right? but we’re all going to hush and pretend like it was anyway for the sake of not spoiling his big moment. even though I am crossing my arms and tapping my chin with my finger while doubtfully glancing to the side
anyway here he goes!
Tumblr media
YEAH KIRI GO GETTIM [stage whisper] there it is, in his pocket. should’ve burned. we won’t discuss it
OH FOR FUCK’S
Tumblr media
TOGA YOU LITTLE WIENER BUT WHAT’S THIS ABOUT “MY HALF” NOW????
DID HE GRAB MINA’S MID-AIR?? IS HE REALLY REACHING INTO HIS BACK POCKET AND FUCKING UNZIPPING IT RIGHT NOW WHILE HOLDING ON TO NOTHING AND PRESUMABLY FALLING THROUGH THE AIR. DID A LITTLE BIT OF OCHAKO’S QUIRK RUB OFF ON YOU OR WHAT
OH SNAP SON HE REALLY DID THE THING HOLY SHIT???
Tumblr media
AND TOKAGE FLEW OVER AND SAVED HIM AND NOW TANKS ARE SHOOTING AT MACHIA, LMAO WHAT IS THIS. MOMO HOW MANY GUNS DID YOU MAKE
Tumblr media
Shouji standing there trying to be useful any way he can. are eyeballs really that much more effective if you make them the size of tennis balls and hold them up above your head. legit question, I don’t really know how eyes work
okay after 45 seconds of googling this my impression is that no, they are not. well good on you for giving it the old college try anyway though Shouji
oH MY GODLKDLK?!?!
Tumblr media
DID SHE SAY WHAT I THOUGHT SHE SAID, DID SHE SAY MAJESTIC, ARE WE GONNA SEE MASJKESLTKCI DSFLKJL
oh my god he really is the Magic Man dude??? TIME TO DUST OFF MY INVENTORY OF ADVENTURE TIME QUOTES
Tumblr media
(ETA: AHH FATGUM AND GANG ORCA ARE THERE TOO YESSSS!)
“that’s enough depending on some interns” oh, okay. now that they’ve done all your work for you. I see, I see
so now Gigantomachia is LITERALLY UNHINGING HIS JAW I can’t fucking believe this dude you guys. everything he does is just like, ARE YOU SERIOUS
Tumblr media
please go to sleep already. thanks to you I have my keyboard set to capslock as the default for the duration of this chapter
ARE YOU SERIOUS YOU FUCKING WAITED UNTIL MAGIC FUCKING MAN SHOWED UP TO TEACH US MAGICAL LIFE LESSONS AND NOW YOU’RE CUTTING BACK TO THE TOMURA FIGHT?? WHY DO WE KEEP LETTING THIS MAN GET AWAY WITH THIS
oh my god you guys they really fucking did it
Tumblr media
I guess that Howitzer slash fire punch combo really was that potent huh
anyway so now Endeavor is standing there making a big speech instead of reaching into Tomura’s pocket and taking the bullets that he doesn’t know about and shooting him with one asap. dammit Endeavor
aaaaand Tomura is firing back with the wisdom of Shimura Fucking Kotaro of all people
Tumblr media
well you sure convinced me. damn I don’t know what I was thinking. heroes suck you guys. how dare they help other people all the time
so now he’s all “PERIOD, EXCLAMATION POINT!!”
Tumblr media
take that Endeavor. you heard the man. it’s not destruction without conviction, as god as his witness he will have you know it is destruction WITH conviction. something something the great sage Shimura “I hurt my family for absolutely no reason at all, fuck this ‘helping others’ bullshit” Kotaro. I hope you packed your textbooks because you just got SCHOOLED. I hope the person who ordered you signed up for delivery notifications because you just got SENT. I HOPE YOU LIKE CAPITALISM BECAUSE YOU JUST GOT OWNED. I HOPE YOU CHOSE PAPER AND NOT SCISSORS BECAUSE YOU JUST GOT ROCKED
what an absolutely, unreservedly bizarre place to end the chapter lol. we’re really just done with this week, just like that. Majestic showed up and Gigantomachia opened his chin like a garage door and Tomura is all “you may have won the battle but you suck” while he buys time for Aizawa to suddenly sneeze or something so he can make his terrible comeback and continue Horikoshi’s Traumatize Every Kid in Class 1-A 2020 campaign. what an arc this is my friends. what an arc

A Letter from Norman reactions
Tonight I was feeling like reorganizing the notes I took after reading the novel for the first time. Just some random personal reactions I had after reading it; if anything catches your attention and you'd like to know more about a particular event from the novel, please feel free to ask and I'll be happy to help!!!
Under the cut because it's l o n g. That is, if Tumblr allows me to add a "read more", which has never happened before, but I'll keep hoping in it.
• Disclaimer: I'm suing anyone who ever said that the novel is all about NorEmma. I've literally put off reading it because I didn't want to get into something overly romantic while there's??? Nearly nothing about it that is romantic??????? Just a slight mention in that last chapter and that's it???????? Why are y'all like this
Prologue
• I need you all to know that the important letter™ through which Norman informed Emma about his plan starts with him describing the weather. I just think it's a relevant information.
• Ok I'm at freaking page 1 of “A letter from Norman” and. NORMAN IT'S A FREAKING LETTER TO EMMA NOT A SHAKESPEAREAN PLAY THERE'S LITERALLY NO REASON TO BE THIS POETIC
Maybe, I would get it if it was directed to Ray, but to Emma?????
Chapter 1
• Emma in 2038: Let's befriend ghosts
Emma in 2047: let's befriend demons
Seems like a logic consecution to me
• Ok but why has nobody ever mentioned the extremely precious Emma / Gilda moments in the novel???? My heart was completely melting that was the most adorable thing I've ever read??????
• The way Norman is constantly in awe of Ray is so adorable... Baby is so sweet I swear, he deserves the world
Chapter 2
• OK BUT THE SWEET EXCHANGE between Ray and Isabella before him and Emma go out at night?????? Ray is so pure is swear... He's a precious baby who didn't deserve all the shit he went through.
Reporting it in case anyone's curious; for context, Norman is sick, and Emma wants to go out look for a flower that she's read is going to help him feel better. Emma and Ray are convinced that Norman is going to die because babies are just that dramatic, and easily impressionable as well. They're seven here.
“ «Ray, I'm counting on you!»
Isabella pressed an hand on the boy's shoulder, who turned his face to her and diligently nodded, before continuing: «Differently from Emma, I don't think the flower is going to help Norman heal».
«What do you mean?»
«However, it's better than having to sit back and watch without doing anything. I too, like her, want him to heal as soon as possible.»
«Sure, I understand...» ”
NOW that hits so hard. You have to understand, this is after Ray had made the deal with Isabella. He had already started to plan the escape. In this occasion, he was on a very thin line: alone at night with Emma, outside the House, a child who knew the truth. Isabella knew those were the right conditions for him to attempt an escape, so she decided to test his loyalty; one misstep, and their deal - which was fundamental for the escape Ray was planning - would have ended.
But at the same time, Ray needed to go. Because, just like Emma, he just couldn't stand to lose Norman. And to see these three children caring so deeply about each other even at such a young age makes me honestly bawl. This is quite certainly my favorite thing from this series. And Ray deserves the world.
• Ray was so determined to save his two friends, he even considered for a moment, in the woods, to tell Emma the truth about the orphanage. I find it very nice how the novel hinted of all these times Ray almost revealed the truth, it really puts emphasis on how he was trying to find the best moment for the escape- but it also hints to how desperate he was to share this grievous burden he was forced to carry for the longest time.
• “ Ray, you must keep on living, Norman whispered to himself like a prayer. ”
I'm... I'M 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Doesn't help the fact that this bit was literally at the end of pages of Norman praising Ray and how brave he had been for so long.
• “ Nobody in the House would have wanted for Ray to pay with his life to amend the silence of all those years. ”
I love this bit. Nobody between the children ever hated Ray for speechlessly assisting to dozens of his siblings being lead to death, because they all immediately understood how much he was suffering, how powerless he must had felt, and also, even though it only led to him being even more hurt, how deeply he loved them all. It's really nice to realize that no children ever hated Ray- no one besides from himself. His siblings love him unconditionally, and that's precisely what he deserves 🤧🤧💕💕💕
• Norman: *adventures in a detailed description of Ray's features and gestures for no other apparent reason than the fact that he finds him pretty*
Chapter 3
• Ok I know people use to see Ray and Susan's interactions under the light of Ray having a crush on her but honestly? I think they make the cutest brotp. I never knew how much I needed Ray-having-an-older-sister content untill now.
• For real though!! What hits you really hard is to find out, even though he would had never ever showed it, how desperate he was to have somebody care about him, and to be loved. He literally grieves for losing someone that looks after him and is there to check on him in his lowest days- we know it's the thing Isabella never gave him. Man, this boy didn't deserve all the shit that happened to him. Tpn may have become an old known story for me, but Ray's sufferings in his early age will never stop tearing my heart apart.
• Ok, I wasn't ready for all this angst on Ray's part. I mean, I obviously know GF were hard times for him, but I didn't expect for him to take over the pov. Sis, how wrong I was. Now I'm crying.
• Coming to the realization that Ray's initial plan actually was to bring everyone in the escape, but he clearly had to give up on it after having realized it would have been impossible to save them 🥺🥺🥺
(I mean it was not impossible. He believed it was. But it wasn't.)
• Ok but. The last part of the Ner chapter. I really don't want to spoil it for anyone because it really was a beautiful chapter but I really need to say: Emma and Norman. The way it wasn't just Ray always being there for them, protecting them from afar; no matter their blissful ignorance, they have always been there for him too. They never abandoned that lonely boy, and they made it so that he could have a last reason not to give up. A single, dim light of hope in that pitch black, devastating world he was born in. I may or may not be crying my eyes out.
(Btw I had written this before the Ray special chapter came out, and it's kinda funny to look back at it now)
• The thing with the Ner chapter is: you enter in it after reading two chapters of normal, wholesome children's stories. There's a dark undertune in it, but it's very subtle and it doesn't interfere with the happy, cheerful atmosphere of these children facing adventures together with each other. But then the Ner chapter strikes, and the Ray pov arrives, and it's like being beaten with a bat in the stomach several times. Deep down, you had always known it; but you suddenly realize that all these children are going to die. And, even worse, there's one child who knows. There's one child who has to assist to everything powerlessly. There's one child, one freaking-nine-years-old who knows that all his siblings are going to die, and there's nothing he can do. That a single mistake could ruin the chances of making just two of his siblings survive, which is everything he's hanging to right now. One child who only needs to be loved. Well that... That hits hard.
Me expressing my thoughts: girl this form is shit you can't write something that is understandable to save your life can you
• Also can we please appreciate Norman taking so long to get out of the forest as it's a recurrent characterizzation of his character to be desperately willing to live just *French chef kiss*
• I really like how the novel underlined how Norman's choice of sacrificing himself corresponded to a betrayal toward his friends (when you think about it, Emma definitely felt betrayed). It's almost like in his last moments Norman chose to switch roles with Ray, taking on his shoulders the burden of being both the traitor and the sacrifice.
Chapter 4
• Norman: * “ He instinctively closed his eyes and abandoned himself to the sweet memory of that time he understood how deeply loved he was. ” *
Somewhere, Ray: Can't relate
• Emma: Norman, what you want to do when you grow up?
Norman: It's a secret.
Me:
Tumblr media
• “ Ray woke up before everyone, as usual. ”
A remarkable detail. You'd think Ray, as a good depressed person as he is, would sleep more than the average. The truth is: he doesn't sleep at all.
• Norman: There's... Another person I like
Me:
Tumblr media
• OK NOW WHY did none tell me about the nine (9) lines of Norman / Don interacting it was worth reading the novel solely for that.
• WHY DID NONE TELL ME ABOUT DON ALMOST STRANGLING NORMAN AND MAKING HIM LITERALLY PASS AWAY IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH READING THE NOVEL SOLELY FOR THAT
• Reading about Conny being there hurts a lot but reading about Sadie and Hao brings up a totally different kind of pain. Also who the hell is Cindy?
• Norman: Oh yes, Emma and Ray, my most dear friends, my closest siblings, the reason I wake up in the morning, my only reason to live, the ones I'd entrust my life with,
Also Norman: Dunnot in the last thirteen hours and six minutes they have been acting pretty sus, I'm kinda sure they're betraying me somehow ://
• “ «I agree, but it feels like you've fallen down a rabbit hole. You're restless, you constantly look off...» said the raven haired boy, distorting his mouth in an hardly intelligible grimace and giving his friend a meaningful look.
«Norman, about that mysterious girl...»
«No, you're mistaken! I...»
Norman, filled with frustration, raised up his voice, starting to lose the coolness that was usually characteristic of him.
«But I haven't said anything yet!»
That being said Ray, with slightly mocking doing, turned on his feet and went away, leaving Norman like that. ”
I LOVE THIS BIT SO INEXPLICABLY MUCH I'm always *so* in for Oreo finishing each other sentences / reading each other's thoughts. Here, Norman answered Ray's question before he could even expose it, because he already knew what it would have been. Equally, Ray knew what Norman was going to say even though he cut his answer halfway through.
I love how much on the same page they are, they really... Totally and fully understand each other even without words, and I find it so sweet. Seriously, their dynamic is so wholesome
• Norman's last birthday gift: the thing that matters the most to him: his family's happiness
Emma's reward: the thing that matters the most to her: her family's happiness
Some things hit harder than others.
• I don't know like. When you read the novel after the series has ended, everything hurts so much more, because you know these are all memories Emma has lost forever.
• So you made colorful clothing by "coloring old clothes"? Have fun realizing y'all have celebrated Norman's birthday wearing your dead siblings' clothes
Bonus this epic note I randomly took I completely forgot the context of:
• Isabella is a bitch. I don't give a fuck about your dramatic past woman, leave that boy alone
(When the protect Ray mood hits™)

hiii again!! 🥰 i totally get you on video quality, btw. some of her earlier stuff (esp from debut/fearless/speak now) is so incredibly difficult to edit. have you seen the upscaled versions, though? i think that might help! i use those to create gifs :D
ahh thank you so much i'm excited myself!! i haven't seen some of them in so long since we're all in uni but they're all here for the holidays which is just awesome 🥺 i do have some gifts in mind!! mostly for my friends since my family doesn't really celebrate haha. do you have any recommendations for gifts? i would love more ideas in case something's out of my budget <3
YEAHHH i call it a book hangover 😹 sometimes it's so painful to finish a book and u think "how do fictional characters and words on pages hurt me this MUCH" 😭 this is very true for the seven husbands btw that book absolutely WRECKED me. i'll add the cu long book to my tbr!! i don't read a lot of non fiction but one of my goals next year is to step out of my comfort zone in terms of reading :)
thank you so much!! i do hope you're having fun setting up everything and do send photos bff ❤️💚
what's a white elephant gift exchange? that sounds like so much fun, have a great time bestie!! did you get your coworkers anything special?
have a great weekend!! 💃🏽
- ☃︎
hi omg I left my phone charger at work so I'm on my laptop replying to you 💚❤️ tysm for the link to the higher quality videos! I knew about them, but it's just habit to automatically go to youtube and search for them when I gif so THANK YOU!
have you been able to see your friends yet?! or do any Christmas shopping this weekend? thankfully, I did get a little start on my parents gifts yesterday which felt so relieving.
hmm I personally have been loving crystals lately (it's weird I know) but they're so pretty! And then I just got myself a necklace that's of my birth month (June) that's a moonstone for June. Also dainty rings of that same nature are something else I've had my eye on. I think books are such sweet gifts too, along with local chocolates, anything cozy (blankets, socks, so really anything local that you think someone would think is special)! i hope that helps.
a white elephant gift exchange is this! i'm linking it bc it's easier to read than have me explain bc I know I'll mess up explaining it 😅it was fun! I ended up with a daily calendar of "How To Appear Smarter in Meetings" and it's just funny (for example, one says "suggest smaller breaks in meetings so you'll have time to write your grocery list 😅) so it's not serious advice, it's just funny! I also got a Merry Christmas decor sign and LED lights for my computer which vary in range of like 10 colors and settings!
how is your weekend going?! I got gifts, hung decorations, enjoyed our Christmas party yesterday, and plan to make homemade Ramen tomorrow!

The story of Icarus takes on a whole new meaning when you can actually fly.
There’s a book of Greek myths for sitting on Jon’s desk, three hundred pages long, slightly yellow, and if the way Lois held it was any indication, heavy . Jon had received it as a Christmas present from the Waynes when he was seven. At the time, Clark had laughed, but the following weeks found him in a state of bafflement as Jon absolutely devoured page after page.  
The stories inside called to him, the words swirling off the page into spirals that wound their way inside his brain and made themselves at home. He saw himself in those pages, in a way no one else on Earth could compare to. Hercules’ strength was coiled inside his body, Achilles’ speed wrapped around his feet, Medusa’s rage glowed in his eyes.
And yet, Jon always found himself going back to the tale of Icarus. Sure, Daedalus and the labyrinth and the minotaur were all interesting, but what really drew his eye was the image of Icarus flinging himself into the sky, laughter and joy etched on every line of his face as he strives for the unattainable.
His mom joked about it sometimes.
“Don’t go getting any ideas, Jon. Stick to flying around the farm, and you’ll be just fine.” The words were said with Lois’ trademark cheeky grin, but he could hear the undercurrent of worry in her voice.
So he always made sure to respond, “Don’t worry, Mom. It’s not like I’m actually gonna fall into the ocean because of the sun.”
And he wouldn’t. Icarus couldn’t do what he could do, Jon conceded. Because if it were Jon? He would fly straight into the sun and let it burn him up.
The rest of this fic is here, because I was planning on writing a short drabble and then I blinked and boom I had 3k words on my hands.
This story was inspired by @stardustrobin ‘s post: this incredible fanart. It’s birdflash, but the idea reminded me of a damijon thing I had been thinking of, so I made it damijon. I hope you don’t mind!! (BTW I’m still totally coming up with ideas for that birdflash spn au you thought of.)
And tag list: @comicsandhoney @birdy-bat-writes @anothertimdrakestan
