Joey B Blurbs: Dinosaur

————————————————————————-

Summary: You make the mistake of helping Joe make a TikTok account.

Warnings: None, pure silliness

Pairing: Joe Burrow x reader

Imagine Universe: Into The Mystic

————————————————————————-

February 15, 2024

Out of nowhere, Joe plopped down next to me on the couch and put his phone on my lap.

“Can I help you?” - you

“Yes, actually!” - Joe pointed to his phone

I looked down at his phone to see that it was the TikTok log-in or sign-up page that pops up when you first download the app.

“What?” - you

“Can you help me make an account? My dinosaur ass can't figure it out, but I wanna follow you and see the videos you post. Ja’Marr was talking about the videos you posted of me and you for Valentine’s yesterday, but I had no idea what he was talking about. I wanna be able to see your posts.” - Joe

“Why? So you can approve of them?” - you

“No, nothing like that! I like watching the videos you make of us, and I think they're cute. Plus, I rarely ever get to see the finished prank videos. Please help me?” - Joe

I thought his reasoning was adorable, so I happily helped him.

“Do you want it to be an official account or incognito?” - you

“Incognito.” - Joe

Nodding, I handed him his phone so he could type a username in.

I was absentmindedly staring off when I heard Joe giggle.

“What?” - you smiled

He handed me his phone, and I playfully rolled my eyes at the username he typed out.

Simp4Y/N_B

“You're a dork.” - you laughed

“I mean, I am making the account to watch your videos, so it's kinda fitting.” - Joe grinned

After getting the rest of the account setup process completed, Joe made me type my username in the search so he could follow me.

“Wanna follow anyone else? The team you play for, maybe?” - you

“Nope. This is all I wanted.” - Joe

——

You had no idea what a mistake that would be, and you were dealing with the consequences.

It wasn't even the next day yet, and Joe had blown your phone up, mass-liking every video you've ever posted.

Then he found the AI Spongebob singing videos…

“Joseph Lee, send me one more TikTok, and I'm going to block you.” - you

“Watch the last one I sent!” - Joe

“No!” - you

“It's Patrick singing Billie Jean!” - Joe

We were lying in bed, or at least I was, but my phone continuously vibrated on the nightstand, and Joe laughing kept me from sleeping.

“Go to sleep.” - you

Joe rolled over and laid his head on my shoulder, his hand propping up his phone on my chest to show me the video.

Like he hadn't already watched it ten times, Joe couldn't stop laughing.

“I'm gonna shove you off of this bed.” - you

——

Just when I thought things couldn't get worse, they did. They damn did.

Joe found Jett and Campbell. (IYKYK)

Now he randomly calls me Pookie as a joke, but with way too serious of an expression for my liking.

He'd gone to pick up my online pickup order from the store for me, and when Joe called me to tell me he had received my order, he greeted me in a way that made me want to hang up.

“Hey, baby.” - you

“Hey, Pookie. I got your order and am almost home.” - Joe

A few seconds of silence went by till I spoke up.

“Call me that again and I'll file for divorce.” - you

“You wouldn't do that, you love me too much... right?” - Joe

“I would never even think of it. I was just kidding, Joey.” - you

“Good because I can't live without you.” - Joe

“Can't live without you either… I love you more than anything.” - you

A few seconds of silence went by before Joe spoke up.

“Love you too… Pookie.” - Joe

“Bye.” - you hung up

——

After threatening divorce, Joe toned it down with the “Pookie” shit, but then he found trends that guys were doing on their girls.

We were in bed one night, cuddling and watching a movie, when out of nowhere, I heard an unmistakable edit audio playing. I looked over at Joe’s phone only to see my face and an annoyed expression on Joe’s.

Joe put his phone down on his chest and scooted away from me.

“Joe…” - you

“Nope, it's okay. Comforting knowing that my wife can recognize songs that are in the background of videos of other men.” - Joe

“You're being silly. I'm huge right now because I'm pregnant with your kid.” - you

“You're not huge… but that still doesn't make up for the fact that you knew that sound.” - Joe

I rolled over onto my side and curled up against Joe. He begrudgingly reached out and ran his fingertips over my bump that was pressing against his side.

“You're crazy if you think I don't have an edit of you saved with the same song in the background.” - you grinned

Joe looked away, suddenly feeling bashful as his cheeks flushed pink, and I lightly scratched his bare arm with my nails.

“You're playin’.” - Joe

“No, I'm not!” - you

I grabbed my phone out and pulled TikTok up, immediately finding my collection titled “Hubby ❤️🤭”, and scrolled till I found the video I wanted.

“Woah, you weren’t joking.” - Joe

“Don't you look hot as fuck?” - you

“I'm just drinking water on the sidelines…” - Joe

“Exactly!” - you

————————————————————————-

Hey could some of my followers do me a huge favour and report this TikTok? It is specifically made targeting me and my server and spreading lies and generally just being. Horrendous. The owner of the account, Aspen, got banned from my server not for “saying hi” but for being who they are and encouraging what they do. As you can see in this ban log and ticket, we banned them for allowing our blacklist to be posted in their server and made fun of. all of the blacklist is either common triggers or staff specific ones, and they proceeded to make fun of not only my own but many of my friends triggers. Frankly if they just DMd me and asked why it was a trigger I’d be happy to traumadump since they apparently wanna hear about it so bad but… alas. They decided to just be a dick instead.

“ I actually do not” my ass. Here’s them making fun of it!

They also call us a Syscord. We aren’t even a system discord. We just happen to HAVE a lot of systems. First and foremost our server is a fan server for my content, that is all.

They also have done some other horrendous behaviour like say the boycotts are bullshit and just blatantly being shitty about psychotic triggers

Overall, they just fucking suck! They do all of this under the guise of being “pro recovery” while actively making fun of peoples triggers. Exposure therapy is meant to be done with a therapist, and spoilering shit in our own discord is not “anti recovery”.

Overall aspen is a fucking garbage person and I think you should avoid them and their content but that’s not the point of the post. If possible I’d like you to just report their TikTok [here] and otherwise not engage with them lest you also be a target.

#harassment #they didnt censor anything from our server so i aint censoring any of these #any of the censored ones were given to us like that bc its from her server #paranoia inducing #ableism

things twitter migrants may find useful that dont often get included in "how to tumblr" posts

1- queueing!

instead of feeling bad for spam-reblogging and clogging up other people's feeds, you can click the dropdown and add it to your queue instead!

you can edit how many times a day your queue posts, and between what hours. You can easily re-order or completely shuffle your queue as well!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REBLOG STUFF. Tumblr doesn't run on an algorithm!! YOU are responsible for putting cool stuff onto your followers feeds!

"but if i reblog too much people can't see my posts!" i have just the thing for you

2- personal tags

You can have different tags you use on your blog to help people navigate! for example, i use "dh rb art" when I reblog art and "dh rb" for most other reblogs- that's so that people can filter my reblogs out of their feeds if they dont wanna see that, and only want my original posts to show up.

On the other hand, my art is tagged "dh2497" so they can easily search my account for it!

If you open a person's blog and click the search button, a list of Featured Tags will show up. By default this is just the blogger's most used tags, but you can customize what shows up on yours in your blog settings

You can follow entire hashtags too! if you wanna see hermitcraft fanart without following every hermitcraft artist, follow the tag :D

3- Filtering

Tumblr actually hides things you don't wanna see, very nicely!

In your account settings, you can filter specific tags, and even specific words that show up in the post.

sometimes different bloggers warning tag differently (i do [trigger] tw or [content] cw) so you can try to input every variant, but if its something you really want to avoid just put it in the post content as well. Blocklists aren't really a tumblr thing, so if you wanna avoid an entire community you can block their tag as well

NEVER. CENSOR. YOUR WARNINGS. PLEASE. On twitter or tiktok or wherever, you may have to do that or else the algorithm suppresses it- THERES NO ALGORITHM HERE!!! if someone reblogs your post, it will show up for others, don't worry!!! you're just bypassing filters placed for people's safety, if you censor words.

Also! don't worry too much if a word you wanna filter is commonly used in unrelated contexts- tumblr doesn't remove it entirely, but rather adds a 'spoiler' so that you have to click on it to view it. So just in case it is what you want to avoid, you have time to prepare to see it.

4- effective tagging

[read more in detail here] Only the first 5 tags will show up for people who follow the hashtag. That makes them the most important! Then, the first 20 tags will make the post show up when searching that tag. The rest of them do not give your post any visibility.

I see a lot of people reblogging art with fanart tags- that can be useful for searching back the tag in the reblogger's blog specifically, but doesn't actually give the OP more visibility in that tag.

You'll learn what tags to use by checking the content you come across! most communities are "[word]blr", and most fanart goes "#[character/show] fanart". tumblr tags can have spaces!

Lastly, a few notes

you will only have 1 PRIMARY blog. this will appear when you like a post, comment on a post, or follow a blog. your sideblogs will not link back to your primary blog, but you cannot do those interactions as those sideblogs.

artists love receiving compliments when you reblog!! commenting does NOT boost the post. most people put their compliments in the TAGS of their reblog, so that it doesn't become a long post/thread, and if people reblog the reblog of your reblog you won't keep gettings notifications about it. The artist will still see and very much appreciate it

read up on tumblr etiquette, do not treat this place like twitter or you'll be disliked lol. there are some 'big blogs' but follower counts aren't public, popularity isn't a contest here. make friends, or just block/ignore people you don't get along with. no one cares about your petty arguments

if you noticed the lil cat in my screenshots, that's from a very useful browser extension called XKit!! it enables 1-click queue reblogs (automatically adding your tags), mass-post editing, and lots of other great tweaks vanilla tumblr doesn't have! and the cat is a silly cute thing you can enable in it as well

#hermitblr #trafficblr #empiresblr #hermittwt #traffictwt #how to use tumblr #how to tag on tumblr #tumblr help #i didnt mean for this to be a whole tutorial thing but if it helps one person it's worth the hour i spent on this

Tips For Vtubers

Howdy there, I’m Liv and I’m a vtuber much like you, but I’ve been here the whole time so I’m here to compile stuff for you to help make your transition less scary.

To start, here’s is a post with a lot of tips for general tumblr use and here’s one for giving your blog a custom theme.

Beyond that here’s other things that aren’t mentioned but are gonna be relevant for you:

If you’re coming back to tumblr know that you can’t follow from your sideblog, if you want to follow back it will be from your main, as will your likes, replies, asks. Decide what to do with this information now before you settle into a blog.

Fully explore the settings, there's a ton of stuff hiding in there. AND do it on PC at least once, some stuff is not in the app.

Blogs have individual block lists, no idk why either. So if you want someone banned from everything you need to do that manually.

Also enable tumblr Labs! It’s got reblog graphs which are rad (my beloved orbs) And alternate dashboards, the Blog Subscriptions one is my fave because it means all you have to do is turn on notifications to get all your fave guys in one dashboard.

Contrary to popular belief there is still a porn and adult content community here, if you want to get anywhere near them you have to have age in bio or they’ll smite you. EDIT: I posted more about how to navigate lewdposting here.

Tiktok embeds don't play nice with tumblr for some reason, if you also do tiktok then just reupload your videos and link your account there underneath.

The link post type will show up for your followers but there’s a chance it won’t show up in any tags, so don’t do going live posts like that.

BUT you can straight up embed your stream into your posts! As long as you're using the New Post Editor you should see this menu:

Click the video camera, link to your twitch and bam. There it is. You can also do this with the video post type! If you're ever worried about your post format getting bonked just go through the tags and see what posts that DO make it are doing. Together we can overcome spaghetti code.

General "tumblr culture" is to not comment on posts but its not one thats set in stone, your fellow small vtuber account is probably dying for interaction so comment on posts! scream in the tags! send funny asks! Getting interaction right now is going to be a big comfort during a weird time.

Oh yeah we have ask boxes built in, no marshmallow needed.

ALSO we have pinned posts just like twitter, but as long as you want! Put your ref & socials & art tag (yes you can keep your fanart tags) & your minors DNI & a picture of your cat if you want.

OH I do suggest picking out tags for your personal content if you plan to also do reblogging, makes it easy for newcomers to find what you're doing.

#vtuber and #indie vtuber are full of fanart for the big guys. If you wanna find each other use #vtuber uprising

Okay this post is getting so long but final tip: check out custom pages. They're on the custom theme menu and they're basically mini webpages on your blog that can have their own coding. You can do Literally Whatever. Lore! Credit page! Ref sheets! I once put a choose your own adventure where you navigated by clicking specific parts of a picture on tumblr pages. I Mean Anything.

That's all for now, please add other tips if you want. And please reblog! Not just this post but other peoples too! This will all be way less of a drag if we can find each other. 💖

EDIT: One more thing, lolisho shit Does Not Fly here. They are some of the only tags that tumblr has actually shadowbanned and there is a reporting criteria for it to get taken down. It also doesn't fly on my blog! Begone!!

#vtuber #indie vtuber #vtuber uprising #envtuber #livs words #i felt like a specific to us post would b good #since we have specific stuff to worry about like going live posts n etc #also please do themes i wanna see yall go apeshit #post edit #while i doubt that tumblr has the vibes that makes people think lolisho would be welcome here #the post is starting to get big enough that its worth mentioning #resource #tutorial

famous au but um dumb

@cowboylexapro

if the poets were on social media and famous this is what they'd be known for

(age somewhere between 19-21)

todd

tumblr blog name: toad.anderson

ao3 name: toad.writes

he's technically anon but not rlly

sexiest tumblr account known to man - he's a fanfic writer and an au poster with some occasional og stuff that floods his inbox with asks begging him to publish his og work too - what fandom does he write for? all of them.

his bf proof reads them all even if he's never been in the fandom

he writes fics for his friends when they get famous

in between his novel worthy fanfics are shitty fics of his friends

his followers get rlly confused

he wrote a neil x reader fic until straight girls started claiming it and he took it down becuz the reader was him

todd on his blog: guyss… im so sorry but im taking the neil x reader fic down… im sorry if i offend anyone but the reader was me ❤️ not you - i don't like you all claiming it

after taking down the x reader, he does a neil x oc but the oc is him but with green eyes

neil, after the oc gets described: todd the only person im seeing is u tho 😦 and u have blue eyes

eventually his relationship with famous tiktoker neil perry gets revealed and ppl realize he's not just an obsessed fan

after neil says the thing blog: toad.anderson: guys my real name is todd anderson everyone: omg we wouldve never guessed

after neil and him go public and ppl dont believe that neil is gay he alternates between seething and writing neil fics and taking joy from neil's confusion

todd points out comments that are obviously thirsting over neil and neil still doesn't realize he's being thirsted over

"neil be the father of my children!" "oh i think they meant that in a godfather type way"

todd, at a breaking point, suggests that neil and him post a kissing video but neil doesnt wanna be one of those shawn camilla couples - respect

what if he posted them kissing but he made a historians will call them bestfriends joke but then ppl did🧍‍♂️

"my bestie and I 🤩 " "NEIL PEOPLE ARE GOING TO THINK UR SERIOUS"

neil

tiktok name: neilliard.at.julliard

accidentally tiktok famous for pretty face, charming personality, acting abilities - the theater kids had a claim over him orignially but he's pretty mainstream now

comment section full of old grandmas trying to set him up with their granddaughters

everyones dream bf until he posted about his own bf

neil: my boyfie has a big tumblr and he writes a lot and he really likes frogs and he is also blond and heres his address

hes kinda oblivious about everything

"you want a close up of my collar bones? why ?"

reading comment "'show your abs?' its nice you think i have abs! only my boyfriend can see those tho 😉 "

the comments go wild

people are stitching it screaming for different reasons

all his fans r screaming into pillows bc HES TAKEN NOOO

people are trying to figure out who this mans boyfie is

"he has a boyfriend??" "he's been straightbaiting us!" "NOO HE'S TAKEN" "IS UR BF AS HOT AS U" "look at the way his eyes lit up when he said bf i love love" "this video shows an aspect of society that-"

"tell us about ur bf" and he makes a week worth of videos but its all random stuff

"my bf looks pretty in blue" "my bf likes to put salt and pepper on his fries" "my bf has hair"

the straightbaiting comments come after him posting about pride and having a pride flag in the background of his videos <- they say things like "he's such a good ally"

people attack others in the comments who ask him if hes queer "NO NEIL ISNT GAY NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO BE GAY HE COULD JUST BE A REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY FRUITY STRAIGHT GUY WHO LIKES GIRLS"

"are you gay neil???" -> "not everything has to be gay ppl can just be allys and btw by assuming every ally is gay, ur actually hurting the movement!!!" -> "i asked becuz he said he wanted to kiss his boy best friend on the lips in highschool" -> "he meant it heterosexual-ly"

someone asks him what his type is and he describes todd to the t and they think he likes a short haired blonde

"he likes girls in sweat pants not skirts" "his type isnt ppl in skirts" -- neil would love todd in a skirt but thats not the point

his type: "he's really shy, gorgeous, short dirty blonde hair, uhhhh, really smart, and So much more :))"

he could say my boyfriend is a man who i am dating because i am gay and they would still try to straight-ify him

a grainy video gets leaked of a short haired blond guy jumping into his arms and ppl say things like "its just a girl with short hair"

todd hate writes a neil x male reader fic

he asks his friends for help and they post todd's face everywhere on his recording set

he makes a video like "meet my toddy"

in the video todd says he's a boy and he's todd and he's neil boyfriend 3485757 times and neil is like "omg babe i love u too <33" becuz he doesnt Understand

some ppl r still in denial or think he's bi w/ a preference for girls

straight girls like him becuz he has a pretty face and a general respect for women

during prom season, he gets dmed a lot of websites for buying prom tickets

"don't worry guys! i know i said my high school time was rough, but i actually did go to prom with my bf!!"

charlie

twitter name: therealalpha

most popular podcast name: daltons intercourse

joke/bait account ppl took seriously

The Alpha that other alpha posters bow to

says stuff like "SIGMA MALES KISS ALPHAS ON THE MOUTH TO ASSURT DOMINANCE"

the twitter alphas buy into him so bad he's making podcasts and doign interviews and he has no clue how tf he got here but he's riding the high

he advocates for being alpha via kissing ur homies

when he gets famous he begs todd to write a fic about him

todd agrees pretty easily tbh

"ARE YOU EVEN AN ALPHA MALE IF PPL AREN'T WRITING GAY FICS ABOUT YOU"

charlie posts things like "no homo" "only the real make out with their homies" over those black and white pics of muscle-y dudes w/ no context after the neil video he posts "he homo" over one of them w/ no context

at first ppl try to attack him but then theyre like wtf is going on here and realize he's trolling the alpha community

when no one realizes neil is actually gay he makes a podcast episode talking about how he thinks neil is gay gay homosexual gay - he's holding a cigar and wearing a tight hawaiian unbuttoned shirt like "lets talk about this gay gay theater gay boykisser man"

made by @cowboylexapro

pitts

youtube name: gerdoesstuff

joint youtube name: idkman

homework help and crafts videos youtuber - relaxed vibes only here to be calm

he gives study and concentration tips and encourages ppl to seek help and companionship and not suffer alone

he paints mugs and looks for bugs

he was on charlie's podcast and they discussed the alpha-ness of making pottery

todd wrote a pitts x reader fic becuz ppl begged him to

pitts printed it out and framed it and put it in his filming set up

he's a regular on meeks podcast too btw and meeks is a regular on his

but when meeks is around things explode so

he has a second channel with meeks where they do silly experiments

theyre posting schedule is non-existent and they also do streams but they never tell you so their viewers just have to hope and find out

knox and him are planning on making a movie review channel but its still not fully thought out so

he makes couple mugs for todd and neil when neil asks for help

he wakes up at 2 am and sends todd prompts

anytime he learns a fun fact he sends it to todd on the off chance todd may need it for a story at some point in his life

anytime he reads anything he's like damn neil will love to act like this character and lets him know about it

he sends charlie alpha podcasters to make fun of

at some point he exposes cam's shitty handwriting for the giggles

knox

instagram name: knoxious.ur.mom.ious

he posted a short on his instagram talking about how he just learned hair grows from the head and not the bottom and blew up for being a dummy - he doesn't know whats going on but he's having a blast

he stirs up drama but on accident

he was on pitts youtube before

out of everyone here he's the only one not making content he's just vibing

eventually he ends up posting background footage of everyone doing dumb shit

when it comes out theyre friends ppl stalk his instagram to find more proof

after that he starts to stir drama but more consciously

hmm what else - idk he's just chilling, getting called out for being dumb and watching his friends do dumb stuff

oh wait when he makes that short about the hair a bunch of commentary channels post about it and he takes it like a badge of honor

cameron

instagram name: cam.studies

pinterest name: cam.studies

one of those aesthetic studying accounts on insta and pinterest - takes nice shots of his homework and his pen collections and his study desk

except its only for the pics his handwriting is atrocious - he has like one page or paragraph of pretty handwriting to post and the rest is scribbled chaos - his pens are never organized by color, theyre just thrown in a box, and his desk is filled with papers and books and never looks clean but its fine he's just here for clout

he ends up sponsoring and reviewing businesses that make those cute study supplies so now he has a hoard - or at least he did until his friends started taking them

he groaned about the cam.studies x {random ass ppl} fics todd wrote but he thinks theyre funny and has them bookmarked

he went on charlie's podcast and the two argued for half of it and then explained how as two alphas they would settle their differences by kissing

his friends help him angle his aesthetic shots at cafes and shit

he got exposed eventually as a fake becuz ppl (cough) posted his real notes which were messy and disorganized

but he played it off as a commentary about how the internet is fake and got more sponsorships

he judges todd and neil but is eating popcorn at the front seat of the drama

meeks

podcast name: chameleon hotel

youtube channel name: idkman

meeks makes a podcast for very stupid intricate crimes. he has a cult following of bisexuals

its stuff like drama over a tree being taken down

"the locals even called their beloved tree 'ole alvin'"

charlie: todd write a meeks x ole alvin fic

he has standards, so he does

he went on charlie's podcast and convinced ppl that being with other men allowed u to suck in their alpha-ness and become the ultimate alpha

but generally he just makes his little silly videos and makes cryptic posts about the neil todd drama

has a joint channel w/ pitts

is up to date with the neil thing and is the one to send neil updates

he tries to convince neil to act out his podcasts (with a lot of success lmao)

he tries to convince todd to write fics based on his podcasts (also with a lot of success)

as payback for the ole alvin x meeks fic he convinces todd (very easily) to write a bunch of dumb charlie fics and todd agrees becuz he has standards

no one actually knows that the poets know each other

they eventually post a group photo

"we need to cancel neil perry for being friends with an alpha podcast guy" "nah thats just charlie"

"yall know hes bi, right?"

"he literally has a podcast about how sucking dick as a man makes u the ultimate alpha male"

it does explain why charlie's alpha podcast go from tiktok actor, tumblr fanfic writer, instagram study blog, fellow podcaster, hw help tiktoker in between his satire of normal alpha tiktokers

half of these things are like copy and pasted from our conversation btw so dont blame me for them

You gave a biscuit to your daughter Sarah and another one to the puppy that was only a few weeks old that you had just adopted after the little one had been begging you for more than a month for a pet. You just couldn't say "no" to her; she actually looked a lot like Steve. Although that didn't bother you, you just kept pretending he didn't exist anymore.

You didn't notice that someone was watching them in the park; nothing seemed suspicious, not even when he started following you.

"Y/N, “Steve called out to you.

For a split second, you stopped but immediately kept walking, even though Steve caught up with them.

“Y/N, it's been a long time," Steve said.

“Who is he? “your daughter asked.

“An old work colleague," you replied. “I don't have anything to talk to you about," you mumbled quietly enough so your daughter wouldn't hear.

Steve turned to look at the girl, who looked a little dismayed, and then at the puppy. He stepped aside; it wasn't the time to talk.

You looked at the clock; it was eleven o'clock in the morning, and it wasn't time for Clarice to come home from school with your daughter. John and Clarice were busy taking all the children who were mutants back home after school.

You opened the door and closed it later, but Steve wouldn't allow it.

“Why didn't you tell me I have a daughter?“ Steve reproached you.

"You don't get to leave and then come back after all this time and expect me to welcome you with open arms."

“You just disappeared."

“I saw what you did with Sharon; I had planned that after you got Bucky to safety, I was going to tell you, you know, we don't need you; you'd better go," you said.

"Everything is all right?“ Lorna stepped in; you hadn't even realized when they'd arrived.

“I think you should leave, Rogers; you're not welcome here," Wanda said.

Steve looked down and turned to leave.

“I can still take Sarah for the ice cream I promised her, right?“ Wanda asked, not taking her eyes off the road.

“Sure, she hasn't stopped talking about it since you told her."

"do u wanna build a snowman?"

➵ masterlist

It was snowing for a few days now, and the snow was reaching your mid calf as you stood in the middle of the street, the lamppost illuminating the smile on your face. You twirl with the light wind, catching stray snowflakes woth your tongue.

You always loved snow, so when you woke after your nap and saw that it finally snowed enough to make not one, but dozen snowmans, you rushed to put something warm on and ran outside.

The street was quiet, only sound was your steps cruncing the fresh snow, and your huffs and puffs as you struggled to put a smalle ball of snow on top of the bigger one.

You were almost done with it, you even found a few rocks to use for the eyes and mouth. But you couldn't find anything to use as a nose. And you know you don't have any carrots in your apartment (you delayed going grocery shopping for a nap).

So the only logical (to you) thing was to go to your next door neighbour. You rubbed your hands together as you walked up to his door, knocking once you got to it. Only when you saw your neighbour open his door, shirtless and in pijama pants did you remember it was in the middle of the night.

"Is everything okay?", he's gravelly voice sounded even more rough given he just woke up, but even that didn't get you to stop starring. You knew he was hot. (you shamelessly followed a few fan accounts of his and watched edits on tiktok.) But you never saw him shirtless in person, and your cheeks grew warm form the thoughts swirling in your head.

"Y/N?", you look up at his face, his brows scrunched up in obvious confusion and concern. "Uhh, yeah, yeah.... Sorry, uhh I -I forgot what time it is... I'll just leave now. Sorry, again." You ramble apologising, your face spitting image of your words. But as you take a step back and try to turn around and leave you feel his hand grab your glowed one.

"Don't worry about it. You can tell whatever it is..", he offers as you turn on your heel and step closer. "It's gonna sound stupid." you sigh. "It's not."

"No, it will." You argue. "Why don't you tell me what it is and I'll decided it sounds stupid or not." he offers and you suppress a groan. "It's gonna sound stupid because it is stupid." he patiently waits for you as you squirm and bite your lip thinking of the way to ask him the stupidest question in your life.

"I kind of wanted to ask... you... if you, you know... maybe have a...uhh.." He raises hie eyebrows looking at you expectationatly. "Do you maybe have a carrot.", you finally say, quickly but quietly and you're not even sure if he heard you as you're looking down at your feet and he doesn't answer.

You peek through your eyelashes at him and bitwise your cheek. "A carrot?", he asks you, but he doesn't laugha at you nor does he think it's stupid, he just looks confused. "Yeahh... I - I need for uhh.. my..", you don't finish the sentence, you can't, you're just too embarrassed to admit it. "Oh. You have a date? I have some wine too, if you want?", you look at him completely now, your eyes widened and you watch as he scratches the back of his neck. The muscles in his arm constracting and you suck in a breath.

"Shit, sorry. I'll bri-", you cut him off with a laugh, he stops midsentence. He can't help himself but smile a little at the sound. "It's not. For a date I mean. I'm actually building a snowman.", you push your thumb behind you, and smile, your cheeks burning red. "Oh. Oh! Right now?", you now your head. "I told you it was stupid." - "It's not though. I'll bring it to you."

You wait for a few moments and he's back before you know it. Two perfect carrots are in your hands and you smile sheepishly at him. "Thank you. And uhh, sorry for waking you up." You nod your head averting your gaze from his face and body. "Don't worry about it." he says as you wave at him and he closes the door.

You were halfway through the elevator when you abrutly turned around and raced back to his door. You knock repeatedly and take deep breaths as you wait for him to open them.

As he opens the door he raises his brows in question, but before he could ask you anything you blurt out "Do you wanna build a snowman?"

"Are you serious?" You smile nodding your head. "100% I already made one. But thankfully I've two carrots so two snomans." you smile trasingly and he nods. "Let me just put some clothes on." you grin excitedly as you wait for him.

It didn't take him long and even though the atmosphere was a bit awkward as you stood in the elevator, the moment you stepped out and he saw you run excitedly, sticking one carrot in the head of the snowman, he couldn't help himself but smile. He follows you on the snowcovered street and you both start working on a snowman.

It took you much longer to make it, snowballs, laughs, snowflakes in hair and seceretive looks were delaying the making of a snowman.

It was late and cold, and you were 99% sure you'd get sick in the morning. But you didn't care, it was the happiest you've been in a while.

Announcement for all my followers

Okay, I was really hoping I wouldn’t have to make this, but sadly, I think we’ve reached that point.

I am going on a temporary hiatus.

There’s a multitude of reasons for it, but I’ll give you the main ones.

Firstly, writing has been burning me the fuck out. If my requests are open, I get like 15 a day, and if I don’t have school or work, I write them all in the same day, and you can only be on that schedule for so long. This has led to extreme writers block on my end and just overall a lack of motivation and energy to write.

Second, I have a show coming up that I am performing in, and it’s only in 2-3 weeks, and I wanna have all the time I can to focus and prepare for my show.

Third, as sappy as it is, I just wanna spend time with my friends and family. I’ve blown up way quicker than I thought I would, I’ve only started posting Hazbin content for almost a month! And I’m already at 500+ followers! Due to my intense writing schedule, I’ve been cooped up in my room most of the day, and I just wanna get out and hang with my loved ones like I used too.

But do not fret, I will still be active on all of my social media accounts ! If you guys send in asks (as long as their not requests) I will answer them! And, I’ll still be posting on my Hazbin Hotel tiktok account (@electro.dust if you wanna check it out) — As I have a lot of plans on there I am very motivated to release !

Regardless, thank you so much for the endless support from my followers and mutuals, you guys are the most lovely people I’ve had the blessing of encountering ❣️

I’ll see you soon, dears

— Mio

#mio’s yapping ! ☆#going on hiatus #tysm for the support

𓆩♱🪐₊˙ 🧸 ♡♱𓆪 angst ahead

Gwen entered her house as silently as possible. It was after dark and much too late for Gwen Stacy to be out. But Spider-Woman had been out in the streets of New York City for at least two hours, fighting off a new band of villains who proclaimed themselves her archenemies and had egos too big for their own good. Such enemies were nothing new, but their number had made them a longer battle, and Gwen hadn’t escaped completely unscathed. Damage had been dealt to some public property as well- her opponents had definitely utilized weapons more than most had in this fight. To show for her battle there was a stinging scrape on her elbow, several bruises, and a bleeding gash on her forehead- all of which she could cover effectively with her clothes, but the head wound forced her to throw a hood over her head. But they were wounds Gwen sported with pride. As long as the people of Queens were safe and unharmed, she was pleased, and happy to successfully fulfill her duty as Spider-Gwen another day.

She crammed her foot into her shoe just as the door shut behind her, slipping the last of the slightly tattered Spider costume off of herself and hurriedly shoving it into her backpack- but when she tried to zip it, the damn thing wouldn’t close. Brow furrowing, Gwen pushed the suit in with more force to try and get the thing completely inside while trying to make as little noise as possible- but it wasn’t going to happen. There was simply too much stuff in the backpack; but having the suit just hanging out was absolutely not an option. Grimacing as her frustration rose, Gwen dropped on her knees to the floor to dump out some of the contents of her bag, wincing at the slightest noise various books and binders made as they hit the ground. Cursing under her breath, she tried for the third time to smush the Spider-suit inside her bag.

“Gwen? Is that you?”

Gwen almost jumped out of her skin, heart skipping a beat- but when she looked up in a panic, she saw only her father looking back at her from on the couch, the light from the TV dimly illuminating his features that were contorted into an expression of confusion. “Gwen?”

Gwen quickly zipped her backpack closed, costume secured, and stood up abruptly, eyes wide. “Um, hey, Dad.”

Her father was silent for a moment, tilting his head at her, his arm slung over the back of the sofa. “You’re here way past your curfew. Wanna explain?”

Gwen cringed, eyes shifting away from her dad. “Late band practice,” she replied as dismissively as possible, but it came out sounding a little like a question, and she bit the inside of her cheek. A weak lie, but she hadn’t expected her policeman father to still be up- usually after a full day of shifts, he was out cold by the time she made it home.

She rushed to change the subject, slinging her bag over her shoulder. “How come you’re still up, Dad?” Gwen wanted to know, quickly dashing to her room and tossing her bag into the very back of her closet before popping back into the living room, standing beside the arm of the couch. “Usually you’re asleep by now.”

Her father didn’t reply, instead turning around and facing the television again. Gwen followed his gaze- and her face immediately fell. Displaying on the screen was a live news report, from the scene at which she’d just been present at. The headline rolling across the bottom of the screen read: “Damage Dealt to Apartment Building: Spider-Woman Suspected in The Incident.”

Gwen’s eyes only narrowed the further she read, her jaw clenching and her face turning stony. Whenever the name Spider-Woman was in the headlines, nothing good ever came out of it.

Meanwhile, the reporter on the screen was standing in front of a building with a few broken windows, the red and blue lights of police cars flashing behind her. Gwen watched the woman with a grim look as she spoke: “Authorities report receiving complaints of suspicious activity from Queens Housing residents at around 10:00 PM, many reports containing descriptions of several people who seemed to be in some sort of altercation. By the time police arrived at the scene, the suspects all seemed to have gone- but based on eyewitness accounts and testimonies, at least one of the perpetrators was most definitely the notorious Spider-Woman. Along with that, behind me-“ the woman paused to back up to the brick wall of the apartment “-are remnants of what appear to be spider webs, which can definitely incriminate Spider-Woman as being at least partially responsible here.”

Gwen was snapped out of her rampaging thoughts by her father, who let out a sigh that was a mixture of exasperation, exhaustion, and anger. “Spider-Woman again,” he murmured through what sounded like clenched teeth. Frowning, Gwen turned to look at her father, who wore a hardened expression on his face, his brow furrowed. “Every time she’s brought up, it’s about someone she’s hurt or damage she’s done to this city. This used to be a decent place.” He shook his head and sighed. “And she has the audacity to label herself a ‘hero.’”

Gwen felt her heart sink in her chest, her shoulders drooped, and her head lowered, knowing what was to come next. Her father had not been fond of “Spider-Woman” ever since what had happened with Peter. And although Gwen knew objectively that her father’s determination to finally capture Spider-Woman was only rooted in his love for her, seeing the pain Peter’s death seemingly at the hands of Spider-Woman had caused his daughter, it still sent sharp pains through her chest whenever he spoke about her so negatively and with such contempt in his tone- Gwen knew it was actually directed towards her.

Captain Stacy noticed his daughter’s silence, and turned his head to face her, a look of sympathy on his face. “Don’t worry, kid- we’ll catch her soon. I’ll catch her soon. I promise it won’t be long before we put her away, ‘kay?”

Gwen felt her muscles tighten as he said this, avoiding looking at him as her lips pressed into a thin line and her eyes squeezed shut for a brief moment. Then she burst out abruptly, “Dad, why don’t you just give up looking for Spider-Woman? It isn’t like you’ll ever catch her.”

Even though she wasn’t looking at her father, she could feel his gaze burning into her, and she could sense the confusion and faint undertones of anger. There was a chilly moment of silence before Captain Stacy replied, his tone wavering as he tried to be reasonable. “Gwen- this woman’s been a menace to society for months. It wouldn’t be safe to just let her go free.” He turned around for a moment and gestured to the still droning TV, the camera now pointed at the newswoman along with a bystander- an elderly woman with a blanket wrapped around her shoulders. Gwen turned sharply back towards the screen, already feeling her heart begin to race.

“I woke up to the sound of my window cracking, and then it just broke,” the old woman shared, the police sirens whooping in the background punctuating her words. A heavy sigh escaped Gwen at the trembling of the woman’s voice, and she swallowed hard. “I didn’t get to see what exactly broke it. All I saw was a shadow and I heard a thud. I was so shocked and frightened I had a hard time getting up.”

Damn. Gwen vaguely recalled ricocheting off of a window of what she assumed was an abandoned building, of which there was an abundance of in New York City, but she hadn’t had a clue that it was an apartment complex.

Meanwhile, Captain Stacy listened to the old woman as well, shaking his head sorrowfully. “It’s a shame that our elderly can’t even be safe with Spider-Woman running loose the way she is. That’s why it’s so important to catch her- before she harms anybody else.” There was a certain spin to the way Gwen’s father said anybody else- a certain emphasis that she had heard so many times when he talked about Spider-Woman. He was alluding to Peter.

“Well, nobody was hurt,” Gwen asserted in a firm voice, brow furrowing and cheeks heating up as she tried to defend herself. “Isn’t that what matters?”

Captain Stacy was quick to respond. “Someone could have been hurt, though,” he answered, clearly displeased. “That’s why vigilantes like Spider-Woman are no good. If she isn’t being regulated by an actual organization, she can do whatever she wants, hurt people in the process, and suffer no repercussions.”

Gwen felt something dark and unpleasant pool in the pit of her stomach. “Look, Dad, there are criminals in this very city doing way worse than anything Spider-Woman’s ever done, okay? Why not focus on them? Why bring her up so often? It’s literally all you talk about.” Gwen’s voice began to rise in volume. “Just stop going after her already, Dad. It’s pointless.”

Captain Stacy stood up and faced Gwen, his expression disbelieving. “Gwen- Gwen, you’re not serious. You know I won’t just let her do what she wants. I can’t.“ A note of irritation began to sound in his tone, but the officer paused and closed his eyes for a moment, inhaling deeply before looking back up at Gwen with that same piteous look. “You know… it’s probably just the pain talking. I know you just want to let it go-“

Gwen was in no mood, her emotions beginning to slip out of her control. She felt her face harden. “Dad, enough. I don’t wanna talk about that. I’m talking about Spider-Woman-“

“The only reason I talk about Spider-Woman so much is because of that.” Captain Stacy’s voice turned stern as he stretched up to his full height. He didn’t move from his place, but his severity was evident from where Gwen was standing at the end of the couch. Letting out a breath of exasperation, he put his hands on his hips. “You know, I’m a little confused here. She‘s destroying property and potentially harming innocent civilians, which is objectively reason enough for any decent person to want her behind bars. But our personal stake in this- your personal stake in this- I mean, what she did to Peter-“

“We aren’t talking about that now. No.”Gwen held up a hand in an impassioned stop motion, shutting her eyes and looking away, tugging the hood on head a little further in front of her face. Her voice was beginning to break, tears pricking at the backs of her eyes. Again she swallowed.

Captain Stacy’s expression darkened. “I think we are.” The change in his mood made Gwen tense. “What she did to Peter is unforgivable. What she did to you is unforgivable.” He paused, seeming to struggle to get his own words out. “Spider-Woman… Spider-Woman is an awful person, and she deserves to be caught and put away. She deserves-“

“Dad, no. Just stop,” Gwen pleaded, the tears burning in her eyes blurring her vision slightly. She felt like she was spiraling out of control, her breathing growing panicked. “I mean, it could have been an accident, yeah?” Gwen threw her arms in the air. “She hasn’t killed anyone else, has she? Just leave her alone. I don’t want to hear you talk about her anymore, Dad, please.” Her blue eyes were wet and wide, the emotion within them raw.

Captain Stacy was alarmed by his daughter’s change in demeanor, his face turning more concerned and his tone softening a little. “Gwen, but even if I don’t talk about her, I’ll still be trying to catch her.” He slowly walked to Gwen, then placed a large hand on her shoulder, gazing down at her with a melancholy look in his eyes. At his touch, she stiffened. “I really hate to see you this upset over Spider-Woman, Gwen. You see what she’s done? You see the effect she’s had on you?”

God, he wasn’t listening. Gwen’s shoulders were tensed high, her head facing the floor, and she wouldn’t look at her father, feeling the first tear fall from her eye and down her cheek. Vehemently, she wiped it roughly from her eye with the base of her palm, breathing shakily. Captain Stacy noticed it, and sighed deeply, pulling Gwen close to his chest and cradling her head in his hand.

Gwen felt a softer part of herself relax a little in her father’s grasp, but she continued to tremble, eyes still pointed down. Her mind was a mess. All her dad ever talked about lately was Spider-Woman- even the mere mention could set him off on a tangent about how terrible she was and how she needed to be locked away. And every time he did, Gwen felt another tiny piece of herself break away, the web keeping her together unraveling just a little more. The secret of being Spider-Woman was beginning to eat at her very core. And her father always telling her over and over what a horrible person Spider-Woman was, ignorant of the fact that she was Gwen, had been wearing on her for a long time. Already Gwen felt so, so guilty for what had happened to her best friend. She had even stopped acting as Spider-Woman for some time afterward- numb with grief. Some days she felt so heavy with it that she couldn’t even lift her feet to walk and she just wanted to puke. She skipped school- which was easy to do since her father left before dawn to work- and just locked herself in her room with tears stinging her eyes and thoughts so dark swirling through her head that Gwen sometimes feared herself. She was strong, and she knew that, but Gwen absolutely could not handle her father hating her as much as she sometimes hated herself. He was all she had left.

Meanwhile, Captain Stacy continued to hold his daughter, the TV now ignored. He rested his head in his daughter’s hair, blissfully unaware of the real reason she was crying. “Gwen…” he murmured sadly into her hair, caressing her cheek. “You have no idea how much it kills me to see you like this.”

Gwen pressed her lips together into a thin line, harshly blinking back more tears that threatened to spill from her eyes, sclera tinged red with the burn. She said nothing, chin trembling as she lowered her head further into her father’s chest, her breathing starting to steady as she found some comfort in her father’s embrace.

And then he said this.

“I won’t let Spider-Woman kill you inside… like she killed Peter.”

Never had Gwen’s stomach sunk so quickly. She felt everything within her turn icy. She turned completely frigid in her father’s arms.

Gwen had shoved it down as long as she could remember after Peter’s death. She had forced it deep into the darkest crevices of her mind and locked it away so that she never had to acknowledge it. It was the one thing that could possibly send her over the edge.

The thought that she was directly responsible for Peter’s demise.

She hadn’t even dared to think about it. She had spent - and her father, her own dad, believed it.

That she had killed her best friend.

The fact that Captain Stacy didn’t know that Gwen was Spider-Woman only made it that much worse. No personal bias, from an objective standpoint, and he had still come to the conclusion that she was Peter’s murderer.

And that forced Gwen to confront the grim possibility, the thought that she had regular nightmares about and fought so long to banish from her head, that he was right. That she had, indeed, killed her best friend.

“Dad, no,” Gwen heard herself say, as if from a distance.

Captain Stacy pulled away from Gwen slightly to meet her eyes. “What?”

“I said no!” Gwen was suddenly yelling, tearing herself violently from her father’s arms. She noticed that she could hardly see, and then realized that she was crying, all the tears she’d been holding back streaming down her cheeks. It was too much to even try and wipe away. “Dad, please, I’m begging you, just stop talking about her. Stop going after her. I don’t want you to mention anything about her anymore.” Her voice cracked more with every word, breaking down into sobs as sharp pains suddenly wracked her chest. No matter how deeply she breathed she couldn’t seem to get enough air, strangled heaving sounds emitting from her chest.

Captain Stacy looked anxious, not having moved from where he stood. His focus never left his daughter. “Gwen. Gwen, what’s going on?”

“Nothing. Nothing’s going on,” Gwen answered bitterly through her tears, hating that she was still forced to lie. She would always be forced to lie. Gwen knew she could never tell her dad the truth about her identity now, and it only made her cry all the more vehemently. Not being able to confide in her own dad while being unable to see any of her other friends made Gwen feel so agonizingly alone. She could literally feel the hole in her heart, and it just made her feel weak. She was supposed to be independent. Gwen felt like she was losing her mind, and she just could not another mention of Spider-Woman from her dad.

“Gwen. Gwen, you’re crying-“

She was pacing back and forth across the room, hands on her head and fingers tangled in her hair as if she was trying to physically hold her mind together. She stopped in front of her father, gesturing wildly. “Please, Dad, just- please, promise me, you’ll stop going after her. Please.” Gwen’s words felt as if they were being pulled from her very soul, and it hurt. She stood in front of her father, eyes glistening and tears staining her red cheeks. She was the picture of desperation.

Captain Stacy’s expression was grim, and he opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again as he gazed at Gwen with a look in his eye as if he carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. But he still didn’t understand. And Gwen knew he wasn’t going to stop going after her.

There was a moment of morose silence between father and daughter, the only sound being Gwen’s shaky breathing as she tried halfheartedly to calm herself. Eventually her expression relaxed- her eyes lowering and her hands falling to her sides limply. There was no point.

Gwen lowered her eyes slowly back to the ground, her hand weakly coming up to her face to brush the tears away. Her face had stiffened, turning into a stony mask. She nodded, a barely visibly motion, and a bitter smile started at the corners of her lips, but it quickly vanished. Not looking at her father, she turned her back to him, and sort of awkwardly began to head to her bedroom.

“Wait.”

Gwen stopped in her tracks as she heard her father’s voice. She didn’t turn around.

There was silence before Captain Stacy spoke again. “What happened to your head?”

Gwen frowned at first, not knowing what he was talking about- but then she felt a strand of hair brush her cheek and realized her hood had come down, revealing the wound she had suffered during her earlier fight.

“Ran into a wall at school.” Gwen answered, voice slightly hoarse. She closed her eyes for a second, letting one more tear spill from her eye before retreating to her bedroom, shutting the door slowly behind her. She felt detached, as if she was watching herself from afar. Her footsteps were unsteady as she walked to her bed and sat down. And then she brought her knees to her aching chest and cried.

Gwen didn’t know how long she had spent on her bed, sobbing like she hadn’t done since Peter’s death, before she felt a tap on her head which was buried in her arms. At first she didn’t acknowledge it, but when she was tapped again with a little more force, Gwen allowed her eyes only to peer from behind her arms and see what it was.

She was met with a painfully bright light, flashing different colors every second, and she grimaced when it hit her stinging and swollen eyes, thinking that it was probably just a siren. But then Gwen looked further up- and her eyes widened.

Hobie peered down at her, a slight frown on his face, but he seemed as nonchalant as ever.

“Rough night?”
