The Bangtan Gal Chapter 3O- War of Hormone
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Jen portrays a sexy persona as she films War of Hormone with BTS. An old friend messages Jen when she creates a new Instagram. Nervous because she's not used to dancing so close to guys, Jungkook helps Jen to relax when up close and personal.
Genre: Major Jennie and Jungkook fluff!! JenKook! He's starting to show his feelings a little more!
Words: 7,000+
Author's Note: One of my fav chapters! The ending especially! I added a little more to this chapter compared to the first time I posted this years ago. New ideas kept coming and I thought the ending was sweet and foreshadowing.
----
What were her motives?
There must be a glitch, how can she keep doing this to me?
Angry thoughts filled the Golden Maknae’s mind. Frustration was visible on his handsome features as he continued to aggressively mash the buttons of the PlayStation controller. Currently playing Call of Duty with his best friend, Jungkook couldn’t help but feel taken aback when he noticed that he could not stop getting killed by her.
Noticing his frustration, Jen managed to keep her laughs to herself, smirking in amusement as she continued to snipe him, every time he would respawn. Her “Strategic” gameplay seemed to be working in her favor.
Her stomach dropped when she saw him trying to shoot at her character. A smirk appeared on Jungkook’s face.
He finally found her.
“How are you doing this!?”
She heard his frustrated growl, punching a nearby pillow. She managed to shoot him before he killed her off.
“Luck?” She quipped in an innocent tone. 
Finally, she could feel good beating him in one of the many video games they would play. It was pleasing to see him lose against her. Even if it was rare.
“JENNIE!” He shouted after he got killed, once again. Triggered by her laughter, he lunged at her, making her shriek.
“H-HEY! Wait!” She giggled as she tried to prevent him from snatching the controller out of her hands.
“Give me the controller!”
“Get away from me!”
Holding onto the controller with all her might, she grabbed onto a pillow to swing it at his head. His hair stood up, disheveled as he sat there, surprised at the sudden attack. 
“Oh, now you’re dead!”
“Get away!” She yelled, standing up on her feet. 
She ran around the couch with him running after her. With the game forgotten and playing in the background, the two friends stood on each side of the couch, watching each other’s move. Jennie, standing at the back of the couch, pondered how she would be able to get out of this.
“Hey! Over there!” 
As soon as he turned his head, she tried to make a run for it, only to get her wrist grabbed.
“Not falling for that, one.” He effortlessly picked her up over his shoulder. Feeling her fists banging against his back, he laughed at her pleas. “Suffer.”
With no remorse, he started spinning her around, attempting to make her dizzy.
“Yah! Yah! Yah! Yah! Yah! Cut it out! You’ll break a lamp again.” Namjoon scolded. “And I would appreciate it if I wasn’t blamed this time.” He added, staring at Jennie after Jungkook put her down.
“What the-it wasn’t me! I’m trying to tell you!” She exclaimed. “It was Jungkook! It’s been a year, Namjoon!”
“Uh huh...sure...”
“Why won’t you believe me!?”
-------
The next day was Jungkook’s birthday. He was finally 17 and as a tradition, Jennie and Jungkook would send each other random birthday memes and messages. Carrying on the tradition, Jennie sent him random messages while he was at practice.
To Jungkook, who finished his dance practice, he looked down at his phone, letting out a short laugh.
Jennie had sent him a Kermit Frog tea meme
Jennie: When Jennie beats you in COD multiple times but that's none of my business :)))) [9:36 am]
“Two can play at that game...” He said, getting evil intentions.
Back to Jennie, she got herself ready for the day and heard a loud ping while brushing her teeth in the bathroom. Walking back to her room, she picks up her phone.
“This...this overgrown motherchucker!” She yelled, feeling her face heat up from embarrassment.
He had sent her a derp meme of himself 
JK: When you have a 0-29 losing streak against the birthday boy in Mario Cart but that's none of my business [9:41 am]
Jennie: JUNGKOOK! [9:41 am]
Backstage, still promoting Danger, Jennie and the rest of the members took early birthday photos for Namjoon’s upcoming birthday, to post on SNS.
“Aw, you look so cute!” She pointed to his birthday hat.
“I refused to wear the hat, but I still had to wear it.” He sighed. Although he didn’t like the hat, there was no denying that he looked adorable with it on his head.
“I’m sure the ARMYs will like it.” She stood behind him. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she smiled while he put up two peace signs.
As she chilled on the couch, with Yoongi, who was napping, she looked up to see Jungkook putting his mouth all over Namjoon’s hat.
“Whoa! Whoa! What is going on here!? Jesus Christ, Jungkook, what the frick!?” She exclaimed in alarm. The response she got from him was a silent laugh. As the Bangtan Bomb camera turned to her, she pointed out, “Mind you, he just turned 18, folks. What else is he going to do? ARMYs are going to go crazy over this, I hope you know. Jungkook better attend all their funerals.”
-------
Finally prepared to promote War of Hormone, BTS started the day off by posing for the concept photos. For her outfit, she wore high waisted leather skinny jeans, black heels and a red short sleeved crop top with lace on the shoulders. Her hair was freshly washed and straightened with loose curls. Her appearance seemed foreign since the outfit showed off a sexier side to her.
“Jennie...looking good. Do you know that your front is the best? And your back is the best?” Jimin tried to flirt, putting an arm around her.
Rolling her eyes, playfully having an annoyed expression on her face, she took his arm off her, retorting, “Boy bye!”
Letting out a nervous chuckle, Jimin tried to explain on camera, “Don’t worry ARMY, this is just how our relationship works. Please support JenMin! Right now, she’s just playing hard to get. She’s easily flustered. She was probably just shy.”
“Riiiight. Whatever gets you through the day.” She patted him on the back, strolling away. Jimin let out another nervous laugh, trying to hide his rejection.
“ARMY, Jimin and Jennie are just friends. They always do this, don’t worry.” Jungkook explained.
“Why are you telling them lies!?” Jimin shook him, earning a loud laugh in response.
As they finished the group photo shoot, they took their photo shoot to a local store. 
“Ooh, can I have some? Haven’t had whipped cream in a minute.” She asked Suga, who had a can in his hands. He sprayed some in her mouth and she happily enjoyed the taste. “Just as good as I remember.”
After watching the guys do their individual photoshoots, she sat down against the shelves of groceries, with her right knee up to her chest. She rested her right arm on her knee.
From posing with her tongue poking out of her mouth, puckering up her lips for the camera, to having a strawberry between her teeth, the photo shoot went well so far. Getting back up to her feet, one of the female stylists fluffed up her hair, so it could put off a sexier vibe. 
“Is this too sexy?” She gestured as she leaned against the wall.
After taking more shots, she checked out some of the photos, nodding in approval. “Well damn. I’m getting better at these concept photos.”
-----
The next day was the day of the Music video shooting. Jennie adjusted her leather jacket, zipping it halfway. Gathering around the director with the rest of the members, the director began to direct how the music video would go. “We’re doing one take.”
“Gah...one take?” Jennie asked in surprise. “This is going to be fast paced.”
“When it’s your cue, you’ll be sitting by the bench.” The director addressed.
After getting pointers, she turned to the camera, raising her shoulders up and down at a fast rate, clearly excited. “This is going to be fun! And I’m dancing in heels.” She pointed to her black heels. “Am I cool, yet? No? Okay, never mind, then.”
Getting out of the way, she watched the guys shoot the opening scenes of the music video. One of her favorite parts of the music video would have to be the beginning.
“Ah, it’s nice to chill for most of the music video. It’s fun to watch.” She looked on as the guys walked around the model. As she continued to watch, she couldn’t help but feel anxious about her performance for the music video. They were attempting to film everything in one take, she intended to make sure she didn’t slow anyone down.
When it was finally her cue as the guys were lip syncing the chorus, she sat on the bench, legs crossed, with a magazine in her hands.
La la la la la la la la la
aptaedo choego dwitaedo choego
La la la la la la la la la
georeumgeori hanakkaji choego choego
Throwing the magazine away, she stood up and strutted past them. Jin, taking a glimpse at who was walking past them, widened his eyes and pointed her out. Mesmerized by her presence, they scurried on to follow her, walking close behind her.
Continuing to strut in front of the camera, she had a sexy expression on her face as her hair bounced when she walked. Behind her, Jin, Rap Monster and Suga had their eyes widened, blinking in disbelief.
Jimin had his tongue out, occasionally licking his lips. V and J-Hope had their jaws dropped. V, being the extra one, also stared at her backside, pondering if he should grab it or not. Meanwhile, Jungkook checked her out by eyeing her up and down, biting his bottom lip.
Before she knew it, she began to lipsync her verse.
I know I’m the best, from head to toe
it’s completely ridiculous if you think I don’t know
Slowly unzipping her jacket, she peeled it off, throwing it back, allowing Rap Monster and J-Hope to catch it.
My hair
My body
My waist and legs
It’s okay to stare, I know that I look good
Stopping, she turned to the guys, calling them out.
Yea, I see you starin’ hard
Caught you off guard
I see you droolin’
Who are you foolin’?
V attempted to put an arm around her but she slid away from his grasp, wagging her finger, saying no. Suga got close to her, attempting to flirt but she placed a hand on his firm chest, shoving him away.
Sucks to know it won’t be easy to tempt me
You and I both know that I’m driving you crazy
Those sexy smirks and lip bites clearly show how much you’re yearning
Don’t try to hide it, I see your body twistin’ and turnin’
You call me an equation and say you can just do me
But we both know you’re the one dreaming and wishing you could touch me
With a sexy smile on her face, she pointed to the camera, continuing to walk ahead. Glancing down at her body, she lipsynced,
I could turn you into a man
But you can’t handle this
Halting, she placed a hand on her hip since Jungkook blocked her way. Unbothered by his seductive smirk and eyebrow raise, she met his stare, reaching out to run a hand through his soft, black locks.
You say you can’t hold back and you wanna please me
I’m gonna need you to behave and take it easy
Grabbing both sides of his black scarf, she pulled him close to her face.
And yes I’m the baddest
Yes I’m a bad girl
But I ain’t your baby, you gotta earn that
They both turned to the camera, placing one of their hands in front of it to block it. She and the members rushed over to the next spot and she stood in front of them. Rocking forward and back, she waved, dancing the choreography.
Hello hello, hello hello, I’ll tell you what I want right now
Hello hello hello hello, I ain’t givin’ it to you right now.
I’m the best and I know it but I’m not yours.
I make your body twist and turn when you in front of me.
Grabbing onto her hand, Jimin tried to kiss it but she pulled away.
nege dagaseogo sipjiman neomu simhage areumdawo
yeojaneun choegoui
seonmuriya seonmuriya
V tried to approach her again but she rolled her eyes and pushed him away.
jinjja nae sowoneun

Oh jajega andwae maeil
aptaedo choego dwitaedo choego
meoributeo balkkeutkkaji choego choego
La la la la la la la la la
aptaedo choego dwitaedo choego
La la la la la la la la la
meoributeo balkkeutkkaji choego choego
Shaking her butt, she grabbed V’s hand before he could smack it. Then she headed inside the building that the model walked into. After filming, everyone checked out the finished product with bright grins on their faces.
Tumblr media
“I think we did a great job!” Rap Monster said to the camera. “However, if Jimin says, ‘Hey...I did something wrong.” That’ll make me feel nervous.”
“Oh dear.” Cringing at the scenario, Jen grabbed onto Jimin’s arm. “Jimin, you’re fine, right?”
Turning to them, Jimin joked, “I did something wrong.”
“NO~!” She shouted while Rapmon grabbed onto him.
------
The next day, after a short and sweet dance practice to clean up the War of Hormone dance, Jennie sat against the mirror, creating her new Instagram account. Placing one of her war of hormone concept photos as her profile picture, she named her account, JJenniee_JW
After following people like the members of Girl's Generation, 4Minute, Jay Park, EXO, 2NE1, Big Bang and her sisters, she posted a photo of herself smiling, with the caption, ‘Long time no see. I’m doing well! I missed you, all!’
She also posted her Instagram link on the BTS Twitter account, so the fans can be aware. Immediately, comments floated in like crazy, along with new followers.
‘WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?’
‘FINALLY!’
‘Yes! You made one!! I hope the other members make one, too!’
‘JENNIE!’
“Munchkin made a new insta!’
“YOU’RE ALIVE!”
“MISS BANGTAN~~”
‘Tell BTS I said hi!’
‘WHERE ARE YOU!?’
‘I HEARD YOU ARE IN A KPOP GROUP! YOU LOOK GREAT!’
‘@ItzAngelinaa SHE MADE A NEW INSTA!’
'@ItzAngelinaa SHES STILL ALIVE!’
As she read the profile name, she smiled and immediately followed Angelina on Instagram, checking out her photos. She looked so happy, and even her hair was back to black. Not even a minute passed when Angelina commented on her photo
‘Hey stranger...DM me ;)’
After getting her number, they FaceTime each other as Jen put on her earbuds to speak with her.
“Long time no see, you bitch!” She heard Angelina shout. Jennie let out a laugh at her enthusiasm.
It’s been far too long. She missed this. She missed her. But guilt began to be on her mind because she didn’t stay in touch. 
What kind of friend is that?
“Jennie! Where have you been?! I’ve been worried about you! And now I hear you migrated to South Korea! K-Pop?! You were in LA for a show with your boys? You’ve been winning awards with them? Music videos!? GIRL! I want details! Now! I missed you! Why didn’t you keep in touch?” Angelina ranted as she started to tear up. “I’ve been worried sick about you! I thought you were pissed off at me for something. You legit fell off the face of the earth!”
Jen’s eyes began to sting as hot tears began to form in her eyes, as she couldn’t escape the shame. “I’m sorry...I should’ve kept in touch. Everything was so overwhelming. I’m sorry, no excuses. I’m a shitty friend, aren’t I?”
With a teasing smile, Angelina requested, “Well...if you treat me to a big dinner, I’ll forgive you.”
“Deal!”
“Good. But don’t think I’m mad at you, JW. Leaving Amity took a toll on you. I understand you needed time for yourself. I’m just glad you’re happy. You look different. You’re glowing.”
“Thanks, girl! You’re glowing, too. Before we get to me, what’s going on with you? Still with Amity? Still rapping, right?”
Letting out a snort, She bluntly replied, “Oh, I left the group.”
Genuinely surprised at the sudden statement, Jennie asked a simple, “What?”
“Yeah, I actually left them a little after you did. I signed up for a new label. Went solo. I’m with Colombian Records. Been doing great, I’ve been collabing with bunches of artists. Nicki Minaj is hopefully next on the list.”
“R-really!? Wow! I’m so happy for you! I remember how much you told me you wanted to collaborate with a bunch of people. So, what happened?”
“What didn’t happen? Ugh, Hailey was pissing me off. As soon as you left, she wanted to try to stop me from doing new things. That bitch tried it. I dunno why she doesn’t just leave the group, instead.”
Frowning, Jennie shook her head. “She just wants followers...people to boss around. That’s not a leader. Hey, let me listen to your music! I can buy it off iTunes, right?”
“Yep! Tell me what you think, when you listen. I’ll even let you listen to my new work! And I hope you know that you and I are going to be doing music together. No ifs, ands, or buts. I will fly over to Korea, to see your ass. And I will find a way to book a flight for you to come see me, I don’t even care about your schedule, we’ll make it work, missy!”
“Haha, I’d like that. So how is Amity doing anyway?”
Angelina let out a sigh. “The three girls can have their girl group. They’re getting more popular. But it’s for the best.”
“I encountered Hailey in LA...”
“What did she do?” Her voice got angrier.
“Interrupted my breakfast with my leader, and threw a drink at my face.”
“That bitch did what?! Did you hit her? Please tell me you hit her! Damn, I wish I was there! Like no, who throws a drink at someone? That’s some weak shit.”
“I got held back and she hid behind her security. And as much as I really wanted to smack her, I’m representing BTS, I need to not do anything too crazy.”
“Ha! I can’t believe this girl...She’s a whiny little brat, she would probably threaten the sue since she can’t fight her battles. But I’m impressed with how you’re maturing. You’re being the bigger person. Honestly, she’s not worth it. But to me, she is, because I really hate her guts. I got into a physical altercation with her.”
“WHAT!? ANGIE!”
Jennie’s sudden shout, made the guys turn around. She grinned sheepishly, waving their amused stares away.
“Hahah, don’t worry, I didn’t go to jail. Thankfully...”
“Oh god, what did you do?!”
“She hit me first, okay!? Remember that! That was also one of the main reasons I left. She got pissy with me because I called her out on her bullshit and then she got in my face. Need I remind you that I don’t like it when people are in my face? So then, she shoves me.”
“Oh...so that’s how we’re doing things?”
“I know right? It was a wrap after that. It’s on World Star. I’ll send you the link.”
“Angelina!” She sputtered. “Why is it that I miss the good stuff when I’m not around? Jeesh!” 
Angelina laughed wholeheartedly. “Hey, you know I have a temper. I just regret getting grabbed by security so damn quick...ugh, I could’ve ripped the hair off her. You know she got plastic surgery, right?”
“I thought she looked different. She didn’t need it though.”
“Welp. I may had something to do with that because I ruined her face. I was let off the hook because I had to pay for all her damn plastic security. Waste of money, I could’ve donated it to the animal shelter.” She ranted.
Jennie smiled when she mentioned an animal shelter. Angelina always had a soft spot for animals underneath her strong image.
“But anyway, I wanna see you! When can you come to America? Or better yet, I’ll make my way to South Korea to see you! Show me around, and let me know how their food is. Remember, you’re treating me to a big dinner, so prepare your wallet!”
“Hahah, you and your eating habits. I’m promoting the new album that BTS just released. So, we’re going to be busy. I can’t have my singing exhibit this year either because of our tight schedule. But I’m planning the next one early for 2015, so I’m looking forward to that.”
“Ah, it’s cool. We’ll see each other, soon! By the way, are you dating one of the members?”
“Yo, why is everyone asking me this? First, it's ARMYs after I clearly stated multiple times that we’re all friends, then it’s my sisters, and now it’s you!”
“Haha, well are you sure? Because you and the guy with the black hair are always together. You sure?” She teased.
Knowing who she was talking about, she shook her head. “We’re best friends.”
“Hm. Yeah...that’s what they all say.” She muttered in a sarcastic tone, not impressed at her excuse.
“I’m serious! We’re all too busy to date, right now, anyway. Plus, I want to wait until I’m older.”
“Hm, maybe it’s because of your chemistry with him. It’s cute. Make sure you introduce me to the guys! I want to meet the leader. He’s sexy.”
Jennie groaned at her statement. “Oh God...”
After catching up, Jen packed up her bag after she and the members were told that they could leave.
“Jennifer. Jungkook. Could you two stay for a moment?” Mr. Son called them out. The two teens stand before him, awaiting what his request was.
Mr. Son glanced at the two of them and nodded to himself. “All right, as you know, War of Hormone is going to have various choreography changes and you guys are going to have fun with it. But I was thinking, for one of the choreography changes, you two can dance together. Will you two be okay with that?”
Jennie and Jungkook glance at each other and smile. “Yeah, sure. What do you want us to do?” She asked.
Dancing was always important between them. They both took it seriously, making sure their performances on stage were topnotch. With their minds on work and no play, they listened to what their dance teacher had to say.
“I believe you and Jungkook can pull this off. I have some ideas in mind as I’m listening to the lyrics, especially your verse. There’s a lot of things I want to work on.”
“Anything specific?”
“Jungkook, I want you to make sure you work on your facial expressions. The song is War of Hormone. She’s a beautiful young lady and you really want her.”
Nodding, taking mental notes, Jungkook said, “Understood.”
“Oh, okay, so basically you want him to look at me with want on stage? How the song is supposed to be? Like they guys did in the music video?” Jennie asked, getting the picture.
Mr. Son nodded. “Now you two are teens, your hormones probably have gone crazy, I’m sure.” He turned to Jennie. “What I want you to work on and to keep in mind is to act hard to get. Do not let this handsome young man woo you on stage when you perform.” He warned. “It’ll defeat the purpose of your verse. Jungkook, he’s beginning to woo a lot of ladies. Try your best to not get added to the charmed list.”
Waving his warning away, she nodded at his request. “I’ll be fine, on stage.”
“Be careful.” She heard Jungkook playfully warn. 
She playfully punched him on the arm. “Please, it won’t be that hard to resist you on stage.”
“We’ll see.” He raised a brow in a teasing manner.
“Oh boy, what have I started?” Mr. Son let out a deep chuckle at their funny banter. “Jennie, I also want you to flirt with the camera. I need you to act very sexy for this concept. Sexier than the music video. Your stage presence needs to be strong for this.”
“I won’t let you down.”
“All right, think about what I said to you two. I’ll see you guys in the morning to practice what I’m thinking of.”
--------
A few days later, Jennie met Jungkook in the dance studio.
“Sorry, I’m late!”
Hearing a calm voice, Jungkook’s eyes lit up when he detected Jennie walking into the dance studio.
“There you are, I thought Jimin was going to keep you, forever.” He lets out a laugh.
“You know how he is. He asked me to eat lunch at the last minute when he knew I was meeting with you. He’s silly.” She set her bag down and plugged her phone into the stereo.
“He did it on purpose...” He grumbled under his breath, making a mental note to beat him up, later.
“I hope I didn’t make you wait too long.”
“Nah, I don’t mind waiting for you.” He responded in a soft tone.
Smiling apologetically, she replied, “I’ll try not to make it a habit.”
Walking to the middle of the studio, she began to stretch out her limbs. Already stretched out, Jungkook opened her phone and began to take photos of himself making derp faces. After he was done, he placed one of his derp photos on her lock screen.
“I’m afraid to see what you just did to my phone.” He heard her sigh. Letting out a laugh, he showed her the new and ‘improved’ lock screen “...Really?” She deadpanned as she stood up.
“Just trying to make you feel comfortable.”
Comfortable.
Was her nervous demeanor that obvious since they started learning the dance?
“Don’t get me wrong, I am comfortable. I’m comfortable with you. It’s just that I’ve never danced like this before. And with a guy so close. Sorry, I’m taking a while to get it.” She let out a disappointed sigh.
Recently, Mr.Son had a female dance partner with him, to demonstrate what he wanted Jen and Jungkook to do for War of Hormone. And when Jen watched with nervousness at how close they were, doubts filled her head.
How was she going to pull it off? Make it look real if she had never done anything like this before.
But with Jungkook, he seemed at ease as he analyzed the dance, making sure he could better himself and be good enough to perform it for the crowd.
Part of her wanted to just chicken out. Maybe they should just do something else instead. But another part of her wanted to dance with him. It was Jungkook. If he was comfortable with her, she should be, too.
“I think I know how to make you feel more comfortable.” 
Her thoughts were interrupted by his statement.
“I see that you’re still nervous but it’s okay. I’ll loosen you up. Jennie, I want you to be comfortable in your dancing and when you’re dancing with me. So, before we go over the dance, I want us to try different songs to dance to, so you can get into the feel and loosen up. Do you have any suggestions?”
“Yeah, I have a few songs.” She grabbed her phone from him.
Flipping through her song list, she tried to pick out certain songs that had a certain rhythm. Deciding to put on Body Party by Ciara, the sultry melody filled the room.
“Okay, this seems like a good song to get into the feels for dancing close. Ah, but I wanted the instrumental. These lyrics are too sexy...” She murmured in English as she tried to search for it on YouTube.
‘My body is your party, baby’
“Oh dear.” She mumbled in embarrassment, at the lyrics. All she wanted was the music, not the lyrics. Letting out a sigh in defeat, she put her hair in a bun. “This’ll have to do, I can’t find it.”
Meanwhile, Jungkook listened to the beat, thinking it was a good song to dance close to because of the music.
‘I hope he’s not uncomfortable.’ She thought as she turned to him. “I’m sorry, do you want me to change the song? Are you uncomfortable or anything?”
Shaking his head, he gestured for her to continue what she was doing. “Nah, keep it. Dance for me.”
“Come again?”
Smiling, he leaned up against the wall. In his work mode, he seriously stated, “Dance for me. I want to see how you’re moving so I can help you.”
Nodding curtly, she walked to the middle of the room. Freestyling as she danced and body rolled on beat, Jungkook carefully analyzed her movements with his arms crossed.
“Ah, you’re still stiff.” He pointed out.
Stopping her movement, she let out a sigh, turning back to him. “Really? I don’t feel stiff.”
“You’re overthinking it. I can see it by the way you’re moving. Try doing it like this.”
He got off the wall and effortlessly did the same movements she did but in a stronger manner, making the movements pop.
“I think I might have it.” She turned back to the mirror, attempting to mirror what he just did, but failed. Annoyed at herself, she let out a frustrated sigh.
“It’s okay!” He chuckled softly. “You’re going to get it.”
“Can you guide me, please?”
With a curt nod, he got behind her, gently placing his warm hands on her hips. She could feel her ear getting tickled when his warm breath hit her ear. Out of habit, she tensed up, feeling her stomach flip.
“Follow me.” He said as they swayed to the beat. His hands moved her hips to guide her. “Make the movements slower and more powerful.”
Stiffening again, she murmured out a “Sorry.” as another chuckle escaped him. 
Who knew she would get nervous around him?
Feeling his chest against her back, he pulled her close while firmly holding on to her hips, getting a more intimate feeling for the dance. Her body began to heat up from the foreign contact as she let out a hitched breath.
Was this supposed to happen?
Was she supposed to feel this way?
Do all dancers feel nervous when it’s their first time dancing close to someone?
“Relax, Jennie, it’s just me.” He murmured in her ear.
Relax?
Easier said than done.
But it was something about him that made her begin to feel at ease.
She thought about how he danced. He was so passionate. She knew what she was missing. It was the passion. He was right, she was overthinking it.
Relaxing her body, just like he said, her movements met his, in sync with the beat. As the song progressed, her movements were more fluid and stronger.
“There you go.” He saw a difference as they continued to move together.
“Aye! I’m getting it!” She happily said.
“I never doubted you.”
As soon as the song fades out, Chris Brown's Wall to Wall blared out of the speakers, boosting up her mood even more.
“Aye~” She shouted as she started jamming to the song. 
Jungkook let out a loud laugh, watching her dance around the room. 
It was cute.
“We’ll practice after this song! Dance with me, come on! It’s Chris Brown for goodness sake!” He heard her say over the music. Next thing he knew, his wrist was grabbed by her as she freestyled with him.
After the song ended, she finally put on War of Hormone.
With her nervousness gone, she confidently requested. “All right, back to business. Let’s go all out like we’re on stage. So, use your stage persona.”
“You sure?”
“Yeah, do whatever. No holding back. Let’s perform like we’re performing on a music show.” She waved his warning away.
Watching Jungkook dance full out, inspired her. He was so good. He wasn’t called the Golden Maknae for nothing. Once it was her cue, she strutted to the front, putting a fist near her mouth, imitating a mic.
Touching the side of her head before lifting up her right knee, and tapping the side of her shoe, she lipsynced, “I know I’m the best, from head to toe. It’s completely ridiculous if you think I don’t know. My hair. My body. My waist and legs."
Turning her head back she saw Jungkook while ‘It’s okay to stare, I know that I look good’ was heard, she widened her eyes and quickly turned back around when she caught him biting his lip with a smirk across his face.
‘Jesus...his stage persona is no joke. I hope he didn’t peep that. Please don’t tell me he peeped that.’ She thought as she tried to remain focused.
Yes, I see you starin’ hard
Caught you off guard
I see you droolin’
Who are you foolin’?
“I saw that...”
She froze when she heard him whisper in her ear, teasingly. Looks like he noticed her breaking character because she was shocked at his intense expression change.
“Damn it!” She whined while he let out a laugh, pausing the song on her phone. “I’m sorry, I’m just not used to being stared at like that.”
“You’ll get used to it.”
“Will I?”
Walking up to her, his brown irises met hers as he looked down at her. “Are you nervous?”
“Not yet.”
“Good. Don’t be. Don’t look at anything else but me.”
Holding his strong gaze as he requested, she noticed some strands of his hair sticking to his forehead. His warm eyes watched her as she remained calm.
“Say your verse. And don’t take your eyes off me. If you avert your eyes, we’re starting from the beginning. And no matter what I do, don’t take your eyes off me.”
It looked like he was going to help her with her eye contact. Making facial expressions and doing gestures he would do on stage.
Was she in trouble?
“I know I’m the best from head to toe. It’s completely ridiculous if you think I don’t know," she spoke as she held his intense gaze. But she couldn't help but notice him getting closer and closer. "My..." she trailed off and looked away.
Letting out another chuckle, he took a few steps back. "Again,"
She restarted the song and repeated her lyrics, getting further this time, "My hair. My body. My waist and legs. It's okay to stare, I know that I look good,"
He started leaning forward while she leaned back, not expecting the sudden closeness. She took a step back as she continued, "Yea, I see you starin' hard," 
"Where you going?" he pulled her back forward by wrapping an arm around her waist, pulling her into his chest and she immediately folded, covering her face and looking away as he laughed again. 
Starting over again, she continued with no issues, "It’s okay to stare, I know that I look good. Yea, I see you starin’ hard. Caught you off guard. I see you..." she trailed off and looked away when he smirked and raised an eyebrow.
This was going to be hard. His charisma was impeccable.
"You see me what?" he teased. "Didn't you say it wouldn't be that hard to resist me? You're failing, Miss Bangtan. Try again,"
Jennie shushed him and got back in position. She'll get it...eventually.
Starting again, she went on, “I see you droolin’. Who are you foolin’? Sucks to know it won’t be easy to tempt me.” 
Watching him raise a brow as a smirk came across his face, she remained unfazed, keeping eye contact.
“You and I both know that I’m driving you crazy. Those sexy smirks and lip bites clearly show how much you’re yearning.”
Feeling bold, she placed a hand in his dark locks and moved it down to caress his face. Jungkook reacted by grabbing her hand and placing it on his chest before moving it down his torso.
"Jungkook!" she exclaimed, feeling her face heat up as she averted her eyes and backed away.
"Try again," he looked at her, amused. "You're getting better,"
"Yeah, but a warning would have been nice!"
"That defeats the purpose, Miss Bangtan,"
'This guy...' she thought as she restarted the song again and got in position. As she said her verse, Jungkook ended up pressing his forehead against hers, slowly moving her backward while she managed to keep going.
'Don't look away. Don't look away. You got this.' she thought.
"Don’t try to hide it, I see your body twistin’ and turning. You call me an equation and say you can just do me. But we both know you’re the one dreaming and wishing you could touch me.” she removed her forehead from his and lightly pushed him back.
Tilting her head to the side, she mirrored the smirk on his face as she walked back and he followed. “I could turn you into a man. But you can’t handle this. And yes, I'm the baddest."
He pulled her back into his arms as he held her. She kept her eye contact with him but the lyrics were forgotten. Both remaining silent, they held each other’s gaze. It was something about the way he was looking at her, that made her go silent as the music continued to play in the background.
“I messed up.” She finally spoke up, with the song way past her verse.
“Sorry, I didn’t notice. Let’s start again.” He let her go, broke eye contact, and went back to his starting position.
Before they could start, her phone started to ring. Walking over to it, she answered it. “Yes, mom?” she teased as she answered Jin's call.
“Sweetie, when are you and Jungkookie coming back? I’m making dinner, soon,”
“We’re at the dance studio, cleaning up the War of Hormone dance. We’ll be back at the dorms, soon! It won’t take much longer.”
Not thinking much about it, Jin said okay and they said their goodbyes.
“Sorry about that. Mama Jin is wondering where his babies are.” She joked, earning a soft laugh from Jungkook. “Want to start again?”
“Yeah. You're doing good improvisation as we keep doing this. Keep that in mind. Since we can do different things during the choreography, use those improvising skills of yours.”
“How do you do it?”
“Do what?”
“Make those sexy expressions?”
“Because I’m the Golden Maknae?” He grinned.
“Never mind, you big bunny.” 
“Let it come naturally. Just don’t overthink it. That’s your habit that I’m trying to make you break out of. You’re doing well, so far. Keep going.”
Nodding at his words, she started her verse again, successfully. Grabbing onto his white shirt, she pulled him close to her face as he grinned at her.
“And yes I’m the baddest. Yes, I’m a bad girl. But I ain’t your baby, you gotta earn that.” Shoving him away, she happily shouted, “I did it!”
“There you go! Strong contact. You’re learning fast. Let’s continue working on the dance.” He replayed the song and got back in formation.
Practicing the routine multiple times, each time Jungkook would restart the song if she messed up. He was patient and helped her with her facial expressions. She felt comfortable around him. And before they both knew it, they noticed how strong their chemistry was when they danced.
“Let’s do it one more time, full out. Then we’ll head back to the dorm.” He requested.
“Let’s go!” She gestured for him to replay the song.
After Namjoon’s verse, Jungkook smoothly came up next to her with a big grin on his face.
jakkuman nuni doragane yeojadeurui bae (Yup)
yeojadeureun bangjeongsik uri namjadeureun hae (Yup)
ttam ppilppil gwaenhi bilbildaege dwae
deo manhi jom sineojwo haihilhil
As she was in front of him, the both of them hopped forward and did the same on the other side.
nado yeollyeodeorp al geon da areo
yeojaga segye choegoran geot mariyeo
Placing a hand on his chest, he turned his attention to her. She brushed him off, while he lip synced,
Yes I’m a bad boy so i like bad girl
illu wabwa baby urin jal doel geol
After the chorus, she strutted forward while Jungkook was near the back of the dance studio, watching her.
I know I’m the best, from head to toe
it’s completely ridiculous if you think I don’t know
My hair
My body
My waist and legs
It’s okay to stare, I know that I look good
Turning her head back to see Jungkook watching her, biting his lip seductively once again, she remained relaxed, waving his looks away.
Yes, I see you starin’ hard
Caught you off guard
I see you droolin’
Who are you foolin’
Turning back around, she continued to lipsync her verse while Jungkook slowly made his way over to her. With a hand on her hip, she ignored his attempts to flirt as he tried to get closer.
Sucks to know it won’t be easy to tempt me
You and I both know that I’m driving you crazy
As she continued to lip sync, Jen body rolled with him mirroring her movements from behind. Placing his hands on her hips he grabbed her back as they effortlessly moved together, in sync.
Those sexy smirks and lip bites clearly show how much you’re yearning
Don’t try to hide it, I see your body twistin’ and turnin’
Escaping his arms, she turned around and grabbed him by his shirt, walking forward as he walked back.
You call me an equation and say you can just do me
But we both know you’re the one dreaming and wishing you could touch me
Letting out a laugh when he suddenly wrapped his strong arms around her waist, from behind, she held onto his arms, giggling out a, “Behave!”
Letting out a laugh himself, he released her as they both got serious again. He moved her body with his in sync with the beat as she continued her verse. She got used to the feeling as their motions were on beat and full out. She turned around and grabbed him by the collar, getting up close and personal.
And yes I’m the baddest
Yes I’m a bad girl
But I ain’t your baby, you gotta earn that
Deciding to kiss his cheek instead of shoving him away this time, he smiled brightly at the unexpected kiss and then got in position with her to dance the chorus.
Hello hello, hello hello, I’ll tell you what I want right now
Hello hello hello hello, I ain’t givin’ it to you right now.
I’m the best and I know it but I’m not yours.
I make your body twist and turn when you in front of me.
nege dagaseogo sipjiman neomu simhage areumdawo
yeojaneun choegoui
seonmuriya seonmuriya
jinjja nae sowoneun
neoppuniya neoppuniya
Approaching her once again, he grabbed her hand, smiling down at her as he gently lifted up her chin.
nan neoramyeon I’m ok
Oh jajega andwae maeil
aptaedo choego dwitaedo choego
meoributeo balkkeutkkaji choego choego
After the successful dance practice, she chugged down the rest of her water. Taking out a small towel, she kneeled in front of Jungkook, who sat against the wall. Handing him the towel, he dried off the perspiration on his face, messing up his hair.
Feeling her hand run against his damp black hair, attempting to fix it, his eyes lingered on her, as a soft smile came across his lips. He lowkey liked the feeling of her hands in his hair.
Jennie laughed nervously. “Sorry, I think I made your hair worse.”
“It’s okay. You can mess it up and style it how you like.”
“Hm, I’ll keep that in mind.”
They sit next to each other, resting their bodies.
“How do you feel?” He asked her.
“Much better, thanks to you.”
“Good to know.”
“I don’t want to come off as sounding too crazy but I’ll just come out and say what’s on my mind.” She spoke up, making him turn his head to her. “Jungkook, I admire your stage persona. I like how fierce you are on stage, and how you’re a sweetheart off stage. You inspire me. More ways than you think. Thank you for being so patient with me, today. I’ll work hard.”
“Anytime, baby girl.” He smiled softly. After he realized what he just said, he quickly stood up, letting out a couple of fake coughs. “My parents thought I was going to be a baby girl. That’s what I said.”
Laughing wholeheartedly at his statement, she questioned him. “Wait, what did you just call me?”
“N-nothing! Forget about it.”
“No, repeat what you just said.” She got on her feet.
Reluctantly facing her as his face heated up, he repeated what he said. “I called you baby girl.”
‘She’s going to kill me.’ He thought with a groan. ‘I just had to speak. I ruined everything.’
“Babygirl, huh? I like it. Keep calling me that. It’s cute.”
Her statement caught him by surprise as he watched her pack up.
Sighing out of relief, he replied, “All right, I will. I also wanted to let you know that I can continue helping you with our dances. Unless you want Hobi to then that’s fine or-Jimin or even-“
His ramblings were cut off by her light chuckle as they started walking out of the room with her walking a little bit ahead. She spoke out loud, not expecting an answer, “First, you’re my personal trainer in the gym, now you’re my dance instructor? What else do you want to be for me?” 
Smiling shyly to the floor, he mumbled something under his breath as his heart fluttered.
Hopefully your boyfriend one day...

His attacker is a little frog girl in ragged, thin clothes, young enough to still have the vestige of her tail. Her crimson and gold skin is striking, even though she’s taken great pains to camouflage herself with mud. It’s smeared across her face and thin arms like war paint. Orange-red eyes narrow at him. Her face looks gaunt, her whole demeanor fatigued. She lunges at him, clumsily, and Narinder easily sidesteps her. Shamura’s mother trained them in combat basics, and they’ve passed that knowledge down to Narinder. Not that he needs it here. This little frogling is so starved she can barely stand, much less fight. The girl cries out in a rage and swings at him. Narinder dodges to the side, then in the opposite direction when she tries again. Now that he isn’t surprised, it’s easy to anticipate her attacks and avoid them. “Who are you?” “Fuck off!” she yells, leaping at him again.

through another lens - a bit of friendly advice
When morning comes, it is to a perceivably empty house.
Mom is already on her way to work.
Grandpa is…probably still asleep.
And Michael is nowhere to be found, again.
Sam wishes he would just stay put for once.
But he doesn’t have time for those worries, he’s got possibly the longest day of his life coming up soon. His last phone call with the Frogs had ended in them deciding on an attack near midday on Friday, giving them one more day to prepare.
“How’s your brother doing, Sam?” Alan always seems a little more levelheaded than Edgar does. Sam appreciates that, even if he’s doubting their expertise more with every interaction.
“I think he’s doing better, and he knows about Max—” Sam explains that Michael confirmed Max’s status as the local head vampire, and that the group he’d fallen in with were all still half, like he was.
“Great,” Edgar mutters “We get to save a whole street gang.” There is a heavy dose of sarcasm in his words, and he’s glaring at Sam while he peels garlic and stuffs it with some difficulty into the cavity of a squirt gun.
“Man—come on, there’s a little kid involved.” Sam tries to reason, “We could be reuiniting a family!”
“Who knows how long that kid has been missing, Sam. His family probably think he’s dead. Every bloodsucker is a threat, half or not, little kid or not.”
That doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence towards thinking the Frogs aren’t going to try and kill his brother the second they see him. Sam just hopes they can get this mess over with before there is ever a risk of that happening.
Barnard Emerson is no fool.
He knows damn well what his daughter and grandsons have gotten themselves mixed up in, and he’s got no interest in letting it continue. He was an old man who had made a few less than ideal choices in his now stagnating age, but that didn’t mean he was about to let his whole living family do the same.
He’ll have to live with knowing Michael made his own choices.
That’s alright.
The boy is smart enough not to get himself killed, and that’s the important thing.
“Sam.” Barnard’s youngest grandson visibly jumps at the sound of his voice, which is normal, he’s very light on his feet even well into his late seventies.
“Yeah, grandpa?”
“You remember what I told you yesterday?”
Sam blinks at him, mouth partially open like a dumbstruck chipmunk. “Yeah?” It comes out slow, a syllable for every letter.
“Good. Thought you should know, garlic don’t work like that.” Some part of him does enjoy watching the confusion turn into surprise into frustration and annoyance. “You got some bad information, boy.”
“You… know?”
“I’ve lived in Santa Carla for near fifty years, and there’s a reason I don’t go near the town.”
Sam still isn’t quite looking at him, eyes narrowed in focused thought. “Were you trying to warn us? When you said—”
“—I wasn’t trying to do nothing. But your mother and your brother got swept into the wrong places before any of you even settled in.” Between the dinner fiasco and the disappearing every other night and the day-shift only video store hours and the goddamn salt trail he’d had to clean up. “You’re in over your head. All three of you.”
Sam swallows visibly, “I—we—the Frogs and I have a plan—”
“—I ain’t letting you get yourself killed, Sam.”
“So help us!”
Barnard Emerson chuckles at that and nods towards his studio for Sam to follow him. The least he can do is arm the boy and his friends, get them where they need to be. And while he is an old man, he’s not often the type to do the least. If Sam is really intent on finishing this, he’s not doing it alone (and those comic book boys he’s been hanging around with can’t seem to tell the sharp end of a stake from the blunt).
One more.
One more hunt and he could forget this whole business.
Read the rest here <3

Anyways, anyone want a live reaction summary of that movie? Well here it is anyways
(Cw for mentions of all the stuff typical for a jumpscare horror movie)
They‘re unironically trying to sell the house of the first movie as a spooky lost place far off a spooky village filled with distrustful and unsettling people it. Such scary individuals like. A middle-aged lady looking at them though a window. Or five guys sitting on stairs. And emo teens. Spooky
The random old crazy guy who tells them it’s DaNgeRous here while laughing totally maniacally before going GET OFF MY LAWN because of course
DEER
Also, our characters: MC Arthur fanboy whose 18th birthday it is, MC‘s love interest who thinks MC should grow up, Logan Paul Hair and his bro Goatee guy, Token dark skinned funny guy, Glasses guy afraid of frogs who‘s kinda got the same outfit and speaking style to yours truly fr that’s just me, Glasses girl with camera, pretty blonde girl. Prediction: all of them except MC, Love interest and one of the bros die
Ok they arrived at the house, whimsical music plays as they look amazed at the trees blooming pink when it’s not even spring…only for the music to cut out when they see they’re made of plastic. Ngl that was kinda funny
Spooky black feather stuck in a secret small door leading to a basement that wasn’t part of the movie oOoOOoh
Now it’s dark, they’re making a bonfire outside, and there’s spooky Hippopotamus noises (that’s what they called them in the movie)
NOT THE MC GETTING NIGHTMARES ABOUT DEER AND FLASHBACK SCENES FROM THE FIRST MOVIE LMAO
There‘s hidden figures in the woods with lanterns and this dude calls the names of some dudes they saw a lost place video of that house of. And when they suddenly all vanish he just goes back to bed
The bros are going to a river and glasses guy got lost in the woods while ominous music plays, Oh they’re absolutely not coming back F to them
Spooky random hole that’s seemingly endless but makes spooky sounds, check
There‘s suddenly spooky fog out of nowhere surrounding glasses guy. He touched a weird tree that had moss all over except for a part that looks like the outline of someone hugging the tree, and got punched in the face. Meanwhile the bros chill until blood drops on the one guy, aaaaand the filter switched to grey! 50min of nothing and then it escalates completely. This movie is 1.5h long btw
Turns out they found one of the guys from the video hanging from a tree after not seeing he‘s there for like 20min, dude steps on a super obvious bear trap trying to get him, but ngl the actors are doing a good job at acting as far as I can tell with the dub.
Holy heck these characters are actually kinda competent - nvm they’re
Everyone forgot about glasses guy tho lol
Ooaoaoaooh glasses girl is looking at a photo of them and there’s a spooOoKy guy visible in the window
OH HECK FIRST KILL. Glasses girl got killed by BEES.
GLASSES GUY IS GONE GUY. He hugged a tree headless. Literally, he‘s hugging a tree and his head is gone. Also wow token and MC aren’t reacting at ALL oof
LMAOO THEY SHOWED THE SPOOKY GUY AND ITS UNIRONICALLY JUST A GUY IN A HOODIE
Apparently the whole house is just built on random holes connected to slopes and LI happened to sit above one on a swing. SG cut the rope and she fell down, almost made it out, but then a spooky hand grabbed her down. Where did the rest attached to that hand go? Who knows, it’s SpoOky
omg. You know how in guardians of the galaxy and such that one character thinks he’s invisible because he’s moving so slow? And it’s played as a joke? Yeah they just did that unironically with a guy standing in front of a door all this time I can’t-
Yknow these guys who originally helped Arthur become a minimoy? Yeah they evil
"You wanna go into the world of the minimoys? The time had come, it’s a fUul MoOn!“ shows half full moon"No it isn’t“ "doesn’t matter lol“ <- that’s real dialogue
Surprise attack by a bunch of dudes dressed like Bokoblins from Breath of the Wild attacking everyone with daggers, turning this whole thing into a breakout Battle Royale, F blonde Girl
CRAZY OLD GUY TO THE RESCUE!
Aaaand now it’s randomly over. No signal or reason or anything, it just is.
Survivors: MC, MC‘s LI, and the token guy! A surprise twist!
…the explanation for all of this. Is Role-Playing.
A bunch of teens meeting each year to role-play a new theme. The year before it was Batman. This year it was Arthur and the Minimoys. And they go kill everyone like this because of drugs. Doesn’t explain all the stuff that was going beforehand. Or the secret basement. Or holes. Or anything really
OoOOoh Spooky Hoodie Guy is still standing at the window
(Also what happened to the deer imagery? They set that up for half the movie but the moment the forbidden ketchup starts appearing they completely forget all of it. ALSO the trailer showed spooky versions of the Minimoys. Guess what never makes an appearance.)
Conclusion: would give this movie a solid 4.5/10 for two funny lines and the guys playing the bros doing a pretty good job at putting emotion in

Sonic Cyber Revolution, Entry 1: Team Up
Tumblr media
''What goes up, must come down, yet my feet don't touch the ground. See the world spinin' upside down, a mighty crash without a sound.''
– Sonic Heroes by Sonic Heroes (NateWantsToBattle Cover)
xXxXxXx
Lucas Kinomoto yawned, stretching his arms as he walked into the living room. He was a lanky 16-year-old teenager with messy blond hair and icy blue eyes, wearing a short-sleeved white hoodie with a tiny blue logo of his ARNav on the right side of his chest and black trousers. Goggles with dark blue frames and green lenses were hanging around his neck. He glanced at the couch, a little surprised to see Sonic sprawled across it, still fast asleep. While not an early bird, the blue hedgehog would usually be awake at this time. Not to mention, he wouldn't be sleeping on the couch, since he had his own bed.
Lucas sighed, eyes closed as he scratched the back of his head and figured that he would just talk to his partner once he woke up. He picked up the remote, turning the TV on and leaving it at the news channel, then walked into the adjecent kitchen to prepare breakfast for both of them. The moment there was a waft of sizzling sausages, he saw Sonic stirring in his sleep, sniffing the air and, with his eyes still closed, following the scent as if in a trance.
''Good morning, Sonic!'' Lucas greeted him, causing the latter to open his eyes. ''What were you doing on the couch?''
''Oh, I woke up earlier this morning and then fell asleep on the couch,'' Sonic replied casually, giving Lucas an innocent grin. He suddenly vanished, reappearing instantly with a plate in his hands. ''So, when is breakfast going to be?''
Lucas crossed his arms, tilting his head slightly, obviously not buying the excuse, ''Are you sure that you weren't running around the city last night?''
''Uh, I… may have?'' Sonic said, giving his partner a sheepish look, aware that he was caught. He then added in a more relaxed and confident tone, ''But, you don't have to worry. Nothing had happened and besides, I always have my AR Visor on. Trust me, no one is ever going to know that I'm not a regular ARNav. Everything's totally fine.''
''My name is Midorikawa…''
''…and I'm Kero!''
''We're here reporting live from last night's disturbing scene of crime.''
Sonic's ears twitched as he and Lucas looked at the TV, which was showing a young woman and her frog-like ARNav standing on a damaged bridge. Lucas picked up the remote, turning the volume up.
''According to official reports, an Irregular ARNav had launched an attack on Cosmo Bridge, absorbing the BioEnergy of the pedestrians and releasing an explosive blast that damaged part of the bridge. At least five people are heavily injured and two are in a comatose state. The police is working with the Irregular Hunters to try and find the culprit.''
Lucas and Sonic exchanged glances, with Sonic quickly adding in a defensive tone, ''I swear, I had nothing to do with this.''
''Don't worry, I know you wouldn't do anything like this,'' Lucas assured him, returning back to the kitchen while the report continued. ''However, that doesn't mean that I'm not concerned. Aside from the fact that there is an aggressive Irregular on the loose, I'm sure that Irregular Hunters will start checking on every ARNav they come across.''
''Okay, first of all, I have faith in the AR Visor Tails had programmed and I'm sure the Hunters won't recognize me as an Irregular. Second, maybe someone had seen what the Irregular actually looks like, so they'll know whom to actually search for,'' Sonic noted, adding eagerly, ''You know what, I think we should go investigate this.''
''I don't disagree with you, but that doesn't mean that I don't worry,'' Lucas replied, tipping the sausages into Sonic's plate.
''That's fine,'' Sonic replied as he sat down. He understood well that Lucas wasn't really the most adventurous type of person, preferring to stay at home and read a book or play video games. Despite that he was still willing to go along with whatever crazy plan Sonic had. Admittedly, those plans usually consisted of getting getting into trouble and then improvise on the fly, but Lucas usually took them in stride. If a stranger observed them, they would probably wonder how these two could even get along due to their differences.
''Nevertheless, I agree with you that we should go investigate this,'' Lucas said as he sat across Sonic. Sonic nodded, happily eating his breakfast. Lucas just let his mind wander as he ate.
It had been around two weeks since he met Sonic and ever since then, his life had been everything but quiet. He had been used to living on his own due to his parents' absence, looking after himself and staying out of everyone's business, preferring to go through his life unnoticed. That changed when he had found a beaten up blue hedgehog hiding in the bushes behind his house, looking panicked and on the verge of passing out.
''They're after me. I need to leave.''
Lucas had no idea what was going on at the time, but he wasn't going to let the latter suffer. He let Sonic hide in his house until the latter recovered, only to learn later on that that may not have been the best idea. He had been shocked to learn that his new hyperactive roommate was actually an Irregular, which would explain why he had been hunted. However, unlike other Irregulars, Sonic had never shown any sign of aggressiveness or had any intent to harm Lucas. As a matter of fact, he even offered to leave when he realized that his new friend was wary of him.
''I had been running all my life, so I don't think it matters if I continue doing the same. Still, I'm glad that I met you.''
Lucas refused to let him go. Maybe it was him feeling pity for Sonic. Maybe it was his fascination with how different the blue hedgehog was from other Irregulars. Frankly, he didn't care. All he knew that he had to help him. Both agreed that they should pretend Sonic was a normal ARNav and Lucas' partner and so far, things went well.
Of course, one had to take into account Sonic's desire for adventure, even if they did mundane things like going to the grocery store. While Lucas would usually drag his feet, Sonic would just run through the entire grocery store in seconds and grab whatever he wanted. Admittedly, being fast didn't mean that he was accurate, as he would go for the candy and snacks instead of necessary products like bread or milk, much to Lucas' exasperation.
Speaking of food, Lucas knew that ARNavs normally weren't even able to consume human food. They could ran out of energy if they spent too much time outside the AR Field, but all they needed to recharge was to return to the AR Field and they would be fine. This is why he was so shocked when Sonic had told him that he was hungry and ate the food Lucas had offered him without any issue, even asking for more.
''I thought ARNavs couldn't eat human food,'' Lucas said, completely stunned.
''I don't know about other ARNavs, but I do eat food when I'm hungry,'' Sonic explained, shrugging. ''This is normal for me.''
That had left Lucas wondering, even more when he saw Sonic falling asleep on the couch due to exhaustion. He knew that this wasn't a normal behavior for an ARNav, leaving him speculating whether Sonic acted like this because he was an Irregular. He had actually asked him several questions about his nature and origins, but it appeared that Sonic himself was just as clueless as Lucas was, admitting that he didn't even know what an Irregular was until Lucas properly explained things to him.
''I think we should also ask the others about whether they're going to join us in this investigation,'' Lucas said once he and Sonic were done with their breakfast. Sonic perked up at the thought of going to see their friends. Lucas grinned as Sonic vanished in a streak of blue light, placing the dishes into the dishwasher and then returning to Lucas, looking excited.
''What are we waiting for? Let's go!''
xXx
''I think we're done here.''
The young anthropomorphic fox cub pushed a pair of goggles with sky blue lenses and grey frames up on his head as he admired his work. He had mostly amber and white fur, with large triangular ears with white canals on top of his head, a small black nose, white fur on the front of his torso and fluffy white fur top of his chest, a white-furred muzzle with cheek tuffs, and three locks of hair on his forehead. His eyes were sky blue and he was wearing white gloves with a gray band around each wrist; and shoes that were red from the heel to the middle and white from the middle to the toe with gray soles, each with a gray band around the ankle. However, his most distinct feature were the two bushy tails, flicking as he picked up the gun from the work bench.
''I hope it'll work this time.''
The fox ARNav turned to his partner, a 16-year-old teenager with messy black hair, wearing an orange unbuttoned sleeveless vest over a white T-shirt and washed-out light blue jeans. He reached for the orange-framed goggles and pulled them down, revealing his green eyes and leaning against the work bench. Both were standing inside a wooden workshop with all kinds of tools, gadgets and parts scattered across it.
''It has to work. We went over our calculations several times and I'm sure we made no mistake.''
''Helloooo?''
''Tails? Warren? Where are you guys?''
Miles ''Tails'' Prower and Warren Taylor looked up as they heard familiar voices calling out for them.
''Over here!'' Tails shouted, with Sonic and Lucas entering the workshop. ''It's great to see you guys!''
''It's nice to see you too,'' Sonic replied.
''What are you doing here?'' Warren asked.
''We wanted to ask you whether you had heard what happened on Cosmo Bridge,'' Lucas said.
''No, we didn't,'' Warren replied. ''What happened?''
''An Irregular had attacked several people and Lucas and I wanted to investigate,'' Sonic replied. ''We thought about asking you whether you want to join us.''
''Of course we want to join you!'' Tails said enthusiastically, with Sonic noticing what he was holding in his hands.
''What is that?'' Sonic asked, pointing at the gun.
''Oh, we've been working on a new variation of the laser gun,'' Warren replied.
''We wanted it to have a greater damage output while consuming less energy,'' Tails added, holding the laser gun. ''We were just about to test it.'' He then pointed the laser gun at the far side of the workshop, where a bag of sand with a painted-on target was hanging. He then fired, smiling when he saw the bag exploding, only for his eyes to widen when the laser also blasted away the wooden wall behind then it. ''Uh, oh…''
''I… I think we need to do a few more calibrations,'' Warren said, staring at the smoking hole in the wall, stunned by what had happened. Tails slowly turned to his partner, a look of guilt on his expression.
''I'm so, so sorry, I didn't mean for this to happen!'' he apologized. After all, this workshop was Warren's, who inherited it from his grandfather after the latter had passed away. Warren's grandfather, Max Taylor, was a renowned inventor, and Warren wanted to follow in his footsteps. However, most of Warren's inventions were failures and he had lost faith in his skills… at least, until Tails came along.
Less than two weeks ago, Warren had entered the workshop, finding Tails fixing one of his gadgets. The fox ARNav was startled by his appearance, apologizing for breaking in and returning the device he had been working on. When Warren questioned him why he was inside the workshop, Tails admitted to having watched Warren and that he wanted to help him, but he was afraid that Warren would think of him as a freak.
''Why would I think that?'' Warren was genuinely confused. Tails had his arms behind his back, his tails flicking as he scraped the floor with his shoe, staring at the ground.
''Because, that's what everyone had called me – a freak,'' he admitted, his eyes watering.
When Warren questioned him about it, Tails admitted that he used tag alongside a group of kitsune ARNavs, who all had teased him for having only two tails instead of nine and lacking the ability to create any illusions, relying instead on his gadgets. He had left them, but grew anxious whenever he would approach other people, fearing that they would just treat them the same as the kitsune group.
''Well, I don't think that you are a freak. As a matter of fact, I'm really glad that you had helped me fix that device,'' Warren said.
''Really?'' Tails looked up at him, wiping his tears away. He was startled when Warren placed a hand on his head, only to realize that he was just petting him.
''Yeah, and if you want, you can stay here and use the workshop whoever you want, buddy.''
Tails' eyes grew wide and he smiled, nodding in agreement. He had promised that he would keep the workshop functional and in good condition, as he understood that it meant a lot to Warren, which is why he was now upset with the hole in the wall.
''Don't worry, it's fine,'' Warren said, calming his ARNav partner down. ''We'll just put a tarp over it.''
''Maybe you could turn the hole into a window,'' Sonic suggested, with Tails chuckling heartily.
''Well, I wouldn't mind having more light here,'' Tails said as he placed the laser gun on the work bench and grabbing his backpack, following the three outside. ''So, are we going directly to Cosmo Bridge or…?''
''We still have two more people to pick up,'' Lucas noted. Warren and Tails exchanged glances, well aware of whom he was talking about.
xXx
Lucas, Sonic, Warren and Tails were standing in front of a gate leading to a fenced-off lavish mansion with a huge yard. Lucas stepped up to the black device mounted on the gate, with a holographic screen appearing in front of it and pressed one of the buttons below it. A few seconds later, an older man with greying hair, moustache and wearing a suit appeared on the screen. He rose an eyebrow as he saw the four.
''Good morning.''
''Good morning, we're here to see Lily Crystle and Knuckles,'' Lucas told the butler.
''Do you have a scheduled meeting with the young Mistress and Master?'' the butler asked, his question catching Lucas off guard.
''Uh, no? I mean, we're their friends and we wanted to hang out with them. We're not here on a business meeting,'' Lucas replied. The butler frowned.
''Unless you have an appointment, you are not allowed to be on the premises.''
''Why don't you just tell Knux and Lily that Sonic, Tails, Lucas and Warren want to see them?'' Sonic asked.
''Young Sir, please leave before I call the authorities,'' the butler replied, sounding annoyed.
''H-Hey!'' Lucas frowned when the holographic screen vanished.
''Why do I have the feeling that we're not welcome here?'' Sonic said in a sarcastic tone. Tails gave him a worried look.
''Lily and Knuckles wouldn't do that to us, would they?'' he asked.
''Don't worry, buddy, I'm sure it is just a misunderstanding,'' Sonic replied, glancing at Lucas. ''Any ideas?''
''Honestly, the only way inside would be to somehow get Lily and Knuckles' attention,'' Lucas replied.
''Too bad we had forgotten to ask Lily for her contact number,'' Warren said. While he and Lucas had been friends, they had only recently met Lily, meaning that it was a bit harder to get ahold of her.
''Maybe we could find a back entrance,'' Sonic suggested, pointing at the far end of the fence, lining up with the nearby woods.
''Are you sure that this is a good idea?'' Tails asked Sonic, who shrugged.
''Well, it is better than doing nothing.''
''Honestly, I don't think it is,'' Lucas replied in a deadpan tone.
''Our goal is to let Knuckles and Lily learn that we're here and if someone raises an alarm, then we can consider our goal to be achieved,'' Sonic replied.
''That… That actually sounds reasonable,'' Tails said. Lucas and Warren exchanged glances, with Warren shrugging, as he had no other ideas, while Lucas sighed.
''Fine, let's go.''
The four walked around the fence, entering the path between it and the woods. So far, things were fine, at least until Warren accidentally stepped on a very thin wire, followed by clicking noises. There was a hissing sound of a rope and a second later, the four found themselves dangling in a net hanging over a tree.
''Why is this trap here?'' Sonic asked in disbelief.
''It is for intruders; a trap to prevent anyone from sneaking into the fort. Just like you.''
Sonic, Lucas, Tails and Warren looked down, realizing that they were being observed by an anthropomorphic echidna with red fur that covered most of his body, a black nose on his peach-skinned muzzle, a white crescent-shaped patch of fur on his chest, and violet eyes. He also had seven dreadlock-like spines around the sides and back of his head and a medium-sized, tri-crooked tail. He was wearing red and yellow shoes, each with green cuffs, light gray soles, and a gray, hextuple-bolted plate on top, as well as goggles with purple lenses and light gray frames around his neck. However, his most distinct feature were the large, white, mitten-like gloves with sock-like cuffs and two spiked knuckles on each hand.
''Hello, Knucklehead,'' Sonic greeted him in a deadpan tone. Knuckles the Echidna just frowned, turning his head slightly when another person approached the group.
''If you ask me, you deserved this for sneaking around.''
The newcomer was a 16-year-old girl with dark brown hair that was dyed magenta and light green eyes. She was wearing a red T-shirt, a black jacket with sleeves that reached to her elbows, torn jeans and black boots. On the top of her head were sunglasses with red lenses and green frames. She had her arms folded on her chest, staring at them.
''For your information, we weren't sneaking around… Well, at least, that wasn't our intention,'' Lucas said.
''Your butler wouldn't let us inside. He said that we needed to have a scheduled meeting with you,'' Warren added. ''So, we tried to find another way to contact you.''
''At least our plan worked,'' Tails added in a chipper tone. Lily just rose an eyebrow, smirking.
''Your plan worked a little bit too well,'' she said, shaking her head.
''Could you just let us down?'' Sonic asked. Lily and Knuckles exchanged glances, with Lily nodding. Knuckles then went over to the contraption that held the rope tied up and smashed it, causing Lucas and Warren to fall hard on the ground and Sonic and Tails land on top of them, cushioning their fall.
''Owww… Couldn't you have let us down gently?'' Warren asked, his limbs feeling sore.
''You were the ones who walked into our trap, therefore you need to face the consequences,'' Knuckles replied.
''Why did you two even set up that trap?'' Lucas asked as he stood up, rubbing the back of his head.
''Knux had already told you; it is to make sure to keep out intruders,'' Lily said haughtily, then pouted, ''Also, I was bored.''
Lucas and Warren almost face-faulted when they heard the response, while Sonic and Tails took it more in stride. For the short time they knew Lily, it wasn't out of character for her to do something like that to keep herself entertained. They weren't surprised either that Knuckles went along with it. After all, the echidna ARNav had told them that he had come here to search for a greater purpose – that purpose being to find something he would guard with his life,… even if he had no clue what it was.
''I am a warrior, honor-bound to my cause,'' Knuckles had told them during their first encounter.
''Cause? What cause?'' Sonic asked him. Knuckles fell silent for a moment, unsure how to answer that question. ''Hey, are you…?''
This attempt at talking with Knuckles didn't go well, as the echidna ARNav had attacked him suddenly, with Sonic barely dodging Knuckles' fist. ''Do not interrupt my moment of self-reflection, Hedgehog!''
Sonic sighed at the memory, having noted to himself to never underestimate the echidna, as he spent some time recovering from their fight. Fortunately for Knuckles, they encountered Lily shortly afterwards, who had been dealing with her own baggage. Having spent a good amount of time of her life isolated in her parents' mansion, she ran away to explore Neos City.
''Is it really that hard to convince your parents to let you out of that mansion that you felt that you needed to run away?'' Lucas asked her. Lily pouted, not wanting to answer his question at all, but then relented after seeing everyone's curious looks.
''They told me that I could leave as long as I have a bodyguard with me,'' she admitted. ''It doesn't matter whether I'm skilled in martial arts or know self-defense, there needs to be someone to protect me, else I cannot leave.'' She frowned. ''Rest assured, I'm not letting anyone treat me like I'm a toddler who doesn't know how to take care of herself.''
The exchange of glances Lucas and Warren had with the ARNavs made them wonder why some problems never had such easy and convenient solutions.
''So, why are you guys here?'' Lily asked.
''We wanted to ask you two whether you want to join our investigation,'' Tails said.
''An Irregular had attacked Cosmo Bridge and we wanted to find them,'' Sonic added. Knuckles gave them a look of surprise.
''A quest?'' Knuckles walked over to both Sonic and Tails, placing his arms around their shoulders. ''I would be honored to accompany you on your quest.''
''We're glad to hear that,'' Sonic said, both him and Tails smiling.
xXx
''Well, we're here,'' Lucas said as they finally arrived at Cosmo River, observing its namesake bridge.
''This bridge looks like a devastating battle took place on it,'' Knuckles commented.
''You might not be far from the truth,'' Sonic noted. There had been several holes in the bridge and the railing was damaged. There was also a holographic tape surrounding the bridge, preventing people from walking across it.
Tails reached for his backpack, taking out a device and approached the devastated bridge, his tails spinning as he flew up, scanning the bridge. He then flew back to his friends. ''I can still detect a faint amount of BioEnergy on this bridge.''
''Really? I thought it would've dissipated by now,'' Warren said. Tails looked back at his device.
''It seems that there is still enough left to track down the Irregular,'' he said.
''Great! Let's go find them!'' Sonic said, with the team following Tails as he flew ahead. The fox kept track of the BioEnergy on his device, going towards the southwestern part of the city. However, as he got away further, the BioEnergy signal was growing weaker and weaker. Eventually, Tails landed on the ground, staring at his device in slight disappointment.
''Hey, Tails, what happened?'' Warren asked him.
''The signal is gone,'' Tails replied, his ears lowering.
''I guess we got our hopes too high,'' Lily noted, just as lost as everyone else. They looked at their surroundings, but aside from the fact that they were close to the park and that there were other people and ARNavs walking past them, there wasn't anything that would direct them to where the Irregular may have gone to. Lucas turned to Tails.
''Is it possible for the device to give us a general direction of where the Irregular may have gone?'' he asked. Tails nodded, looking down at it.
''The signal may be gone, but it looks like the Irregular went towards the park,'' he replied.
''Then we'll go and check the park. Maybe we'll find any clues there,'' Sonic said, stepping up and turning towards the group, looking determined. The rest of the group nodded in agreement.
xXx
''So, what should we do now?'' Warren asked. The group was at a more secluded part of the park, having decided to sit down and discuss the situation, each also holding an ice-cream cone in their hands (Knuckles insisted on also buying grapes to put on his ice-cream). They had spent most of the day combing through the park, but unfortunately, they had found nothing and decided to take a break.
''We haven't found any indications of the Irregular's presence and my tracker could only bring us so far,'' Tails said, looking at the device. His ears and tails drooped, only for him to feel a hand on his shoulder and seeing that it was Knuckles.
''You have done well, young Fox. Your technology brought us a step further than we were before,'' he said. Tails smiled in response.
''Considering how the Hunters couldn't find the Irregular either, we aren't doing that bad,'' Lily said, scrolling through the holographic screen that was generated by her AR Visor, showing her a news website. She turned to the group, noticing the looks everyone was giving her. ''Okay, maybe I should've phrased that differently.''
''It is always possible that the Irregular will appear again,'' Sonic said optimistically. Lucas gave him a curious look.
Even if no one said it outright, there had always been a secondary reason why they would go searching for an Irregular. Aside from the desire to protect other people from the Irregulars, there was also a sense of hope that they would encounter an Irregular who would be able to explain more about their nature. Who had created them? Why were they attracted to BioEnergy? Why were some Irregulars aggressive and some, like Sonic, Tails and Knuckles, never wanted to harm anyone? Why were the memories of their origins so messed up? Why did Irregulars have also traits of biologically being rather than just being purely digital? That, and probably more, was on everyone's mind.
''What if the Irregular had already left Neos City, or even the entire Starpoint Area?'' Warren asked.
''Then we can consider our mission accomplished,'' Knuckles replied confidently.
''What are the odds of that happening?'' Lily asked. ''No offense to you guys, but Irregulars are attracted to humans like living magnets.''
''Then, we need to crush those magnets,'' Knuckles told her firmly. Lily wanted to explain that this wasn't how it worked, but then realized that, technically, Knuckles had a point.
''Or, if we already go with the magnet metaphor, reverse their polarity,'' Tails suggested.
''Exactly! As long as we all agree that by 'polarity', we mean talking them out of destroying everything they come across,'' Sonic said.
''That won't be easy, though,'' Lucas noted, with the rest of the group agreeing with him.
xXx
'Target sighted… Initializing Operation: Superior Hedgehog.'
The Irregular resembling Sonic was hovering high in the sky, observing his counterpart and his friends as he processed the current situation. Despite resembling Sonic, especially if seen from afar, if one were to take a closer look, they would realize that he was actually a robot, built entirely out of blue and silver metal, with a yellow circular depression in his chest with a black center, metal fins resembling Sonic's quills, a pair of triangular ''ears'' and red feet with white stripes designed to resemble Sonic's shoes. His sclera was completely black, with glowing red irises.
This Irregular, known as Metal Sonic, had been completely obsessed with eliminating his counterpart. He had no idea why, but ever since he was awakened, he was driven by an internal drive to find his purpose and he believed that he found it when he came across Sonic – he had to eliminate his counterpart and prove himself to be the superior hedgehog. Admittedly, Sonic still had no idea of his existence and Metal Sonic decided to use this to his own advantage. He would find a way to separate him from his friends and then ambush him. Then, once his counterpart was defeated, he would finally be able to rest.
Metal Sonic's memory file replayed the events of the previous night again. Unlike Sonic and his friends, or even the Irregular Hunters, he knew well which path the Irregular ARNav took, having observed the destruction that had taken place. Tails had been right, the Irregular fled through the park, hiding there for a while before making their way to a less populated area. More precisely, towards the Eden Botanical Garden.
Metal Sonic made a soft buzzing noise, as if exhaling in satisfaction. A plan formed in his head.

I FINALLY finished my first complete playthrough of Final Fantasy VII!
July 18, 2022
Game: Final Fantasy VII (Original) First Time/Replaying: First Time Game Time: 35 hours Console: Nintendo Switch Started: May 7, 2022 Finished: July 18, 2022
Tumblr media
I finally did it, I finished the game! I feel like I have been playing Final Fantasy VII for years… I don’t think that’s a good thing. 😬
I started this game around May 7th, and I finished it yesterday, July 18th. According to my Switch profile, I played the game for 35 hours. That’s less than Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy IX!
I’m shocked that the total hours was only 35. It felt much longer than that! There’s just something that made the game go by very slowly. shrug But overall, it was a good game!
For my entire gameplay, I only died once which I find really surprising. I talk about my first GAME OVER in this blog post. I went into the final parts of the game with a party of Cloud, Tifa, and Cid.
In the beginning of the game, my main party was Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith, then it was Cloud, Tifa, and Red, until I eventually switched Cid for Red. Tifa has always been a staple, I really like her!
Let’s mosey! - Cloud
Tumblr media
Above is a screenshot of my party’s stats when I reached the “????” location. Honestly, all of the locations were “????” to me because I couldn’t remember their names for a long time. But I’ve gotten better. I can name a few now… Midgar, Kalm, Junon, Bone City (?), Forbidden City (or Forest?), Nibelheim… Gold Saucer… uh… Mt. Nibel (does that count as it’s own place?), Rocket Town… the Ancient Temple (?), Wutai (I didn’t go to it but I read about it), and…. um… that’s all I got right now, lol.
Materia
I made a Reel on my Instagram showing the Materia I had equipped. I ended up making a couple changes from when I recorded the video. I removed the “Mega All” Materia from Tifa and gave it to Cloud, and I equipped the “Destruct” Materia on Cloud. I think everything else stayed the same! This Reel also shows my character’s stats and their equipped weapons & armor.
The Final Boss Fight – er, Fights!
Naturally, there was more than just one final boss. Y’all, I have no idea how I beat all 3 bosses without dying, but I did. Thank God for Elixers and X-Potions because those were helpful! I used Regen A LOT and also Barrier to reduce damage. Cloud had Bahamut and Cid had Neo-Bahamut. I used them once each in each of the 3 fights. Tifa didn’t have a Summon equipped, she just attacked with Ultima over and over. Cloud had the “Mega-All” Materia equipped which allowed him to hit all the enemies at once when he used his regular Attack command… which was awesome!
Poor Cid turned into a darn frog during the third boss fight and I had no way to heal him so it was basically a 2-player fight near the end. Cloud and Tifa’s limit breaks, as well as Tifa’s Ultima, saved the day! I used their limit breaks as often as possible and Tifa actually had the final hit with the Ultima spell.
Was I sweating profusely and holding my breath the entire time? 100%. But it’s over, I did it, the game is done and I’m so relieved! Yes, I enjoyed the game and I liked it… but whew… it was a long one for me. I keep mentioning this because I had a completely different experience with FF8. I had so much fun with that game, I did NOT want it to end! But with FF7, I was ready for this to end back when I was in Disc 1. 🙈
I’ll be sharing my likes & dislikes on another blog post. For now, I just wanted to share my finishing stats of my first gameplay of Final Fantasy VII!

BEFORE READING, I NEED YOU TO BE AWARE OF THIS:
1. the whole story belongs to Gege Akutami and the credits go to them and them only.
2. the spell curses used belong to Tite Kubo due to them being the ‘Kidos’ being used on the manga and anime ‘Bleach’ - but none is mentioned in this chapter.
2.5. for the ‘cursed spells’/kidos (bleach) i will link this video here and tell you the time stamp to check out what i am intending to show - remember i add a few twist here and there by adding the katana to link with Y/N’s cursed technique : hopefully this video is slightly better...
Destructive Curse Spell Number Fifty-Four : Haien : 6:08-6:12 (but like it’s more emphasised to look like this : 1:55-2:05)
3. if you are confused on anything, please don’t hesitate to message me since i know this whole thing is so confusing.
Tumblr media
“Where the hell is Fushiguro, right now?” you muttered under your breath as you swiftly ran around the extremely large building you were currently in right now after trying to run away from Kyoto student: Kamo Noritoshi, who seemed too adamant to catch you for some odd reason.
At this current moment in time, you were desperately trying to find your partner after instantly splitting up with him when you both had entered the building causing you to become concerned for the shikigami user since his opponent didn’t seem to be holding back. Even though in the back of your mind, this was your one and only opportunity to go and find the curse you needed to exorcise for your school team to win the first day of the Exchange Event, you knew that the second that Kamo could sense your curse energy leave the premises, he would turn away from his battle and chase you down leaving Fushiguro the role of trying to locate you - which was going to be difficult for him.
Digging into your skirt pocket, you quickly pulled out a fist that had a few pink petals that you had kept after you had used some of them to attack Kamo earlier before gradually transferring some of your cursed energy within them. Slowly, you processed to open your palm letting the same blush coloured petals begin to glide into the air allowing them to travel down the hall you were running through right now causing specks of your cursed energy to be located everywhere they moved to lead your opponents to be somewhat confused about where you really were right now.
                                              ꕥ
“Your team partner seemed to be the smart type,” Kamo mentioned as he turned his head to look behind him since he slowly began to sense the chaotic flow of cursed energy that was beginning to vastly surround the building right now as he was quickly struggling to locate the original source of the cursed energy that he needed to find, which was you.
“She’s always been the smart type, it’s quite scary in my opinion,” Fushiguro commented before raising his tonfas in a defensive position before taking the time given to him to try to locate where you were before giving up the second he tried once his discovered how immense your cursed energy was flowing in the building right now.
‘What the hell? How does she do that?’
Hastily, Fushiguro lunged himself forward as he attempted to attack Kamo leading his opponent to block his hit before suddenly retaliating, only for Fushiguro to defend himself quickly as well. However, it seemed as if both sorcerers were not going to give up as easily as a continuous row of attacks commenced between the two causing them to travel backwards and forwards along the hallway they were in right now.
Suddenly, there was a violent contact with the backs of their wrists leading Kamo to proceed to swiftly turn his body to the side of the opposition as he forcibly thrust his palm out towards the shikigami user causing Fushiguro to use his remaining tonfa to block his attack causing his weapon to snap in half as well as him being pushed back to the other side of the hallway where he first stood.
Staring down at the now tattered wooden weapon, Fushiguro casually threw it to the side leading Kamo to begin to spew out with what was currently running through his mind.
“Shikigami users who can fight this well in close combat are precious, you’ve improved. I’m happy,” Kamo expressed with an impressed tone, leading Fushiguro to unexpectedly cringe at the amount of time you had beaten him up during the past two months of training you both had together.
“What is this sense of fellowship you keep throwing out?” Fushiguro asked in an irritated tone since he wasn’t in the mood to converse about anything to do with the clans at this moment in time.
“I’m sympathising, someday you’ll be one of those supporting the major clans, well maybe the four major clans if the L/N remained after the Heian Era,” Kamo suggested, causing the erratic-haired sorcerer to look at the opposition with a deadpan expression painted on his face.
“Gojo doesn’t even support the clans even though she is in the Gojo clan,” Fushiguro reminded Kamo leading to the sorcerer in front of him to shift slightly as if the news to him was surprising at all since it seemed as if you and the strongest sorcerer was ‘close’ despite the joking tension between you both.
“I intend to kill Itadori Yuji,” Kamo suddenly announced, as if that was not known to everyone within the Tokyo team right now.
“On Principal Gakuganji’s orders? So why chase after Gojo?” Fushiguro questioned, as he was still perplexed on why the blood manipulation sorcerer would go after you if his main priority was to eliminate his friend and classmate.
“No, it’s my personal decision. As a member of the Kamo clan, one of the three major clans, I believe that’s the right call,” Kamo answered before going silent, as if he had something in mind currently before he began to voice his opinion once again, “you should be able to understand that, too,”.
“Sorry, but I really don’t get it at all”
Suddenly, Kamo unexpectedly left something lightly slice his cheek slightly causing him to turn to view what was behind him to notice that you were standing there with your armed raised up, leading him to turn back forward to discover your katana piercing the wall that was behind Fushiguro (who looked at you with widened eyes) as your teammate managed to move his head to the side in time before your weapon pierced him instead.
“Oh, I missed,” you commented as you noticed a hint of blood escaping from his small wound, before using your other hand to violently pull the invisible chain of your katana back like a boomerang leading Kamo to swiftly dodge the weapon this time, while being surprised on how you had managed to retrieve your sword back without moving an inch towards it.
“What do you mean? You, me and Fushiguro are the same,” Kamo then declared, causing you to give him an extremely offended look from behind before turning to the side as if to convey to the sorcerer that you weren’t going to listen to him anymore.
“No, we’re not,” Fushiguro replied with an annoyed as well as fed-up expression on his face, as he didn’t expect his opponent to say something as weird as he did right now.
‘He’s spouting some scary stuff all of a sudden...and couldn’t Gojo warn me about this little attack of hers?’
“We are,” Kamo responded, only for Fushiguro to retaliate back leading you to turn your head back to the conversation with a slightly vexed look since you didn’t want such a stupid discussion between two descendants of the three major clans to go on forever like this.
“We’re not, please save those discussions for Maki-san. I no longer have any connection with the Zenin clan,” Fushiguro informed his opponent causing Kamo to turn to you as if you would try to have an understanding of what he was trying to carry out.
“Remember, I don’t actually have any connections to the Gojo clan, I’m not related to them by blood and even if Gojo-sensei adopted me out of the blue,” you explained to Kamo while raising your hands up like you were surrendering when really you were trying to avoid any topic to do with the clans overall.
“Besides, I don’t believe I’m ‘right’. No, sorry. That’s not right, I don’t care if I’m right or wrong,” Fushiguro commented as he looked down towards his raised hand with a softened expression to which caused Kamo to turn back to the shikigami user.
“I just...have faith in my own good conscience, I save people according to my own conscience. If you would reject that, then...we’ll just have to curse each other,” Fushiguro suddenly declared, as a wave of cursed energy began to surround him causing you to sudden be on guard since you didn’t know what your classmate had prepared.
Unexpectedly, a shikigami frog appeared from the side causing you to prepare yourself in an attack stance in case Kamo decided to move towards you, to which he did turn to face you only for the same shikigami to dissolve into the shadow it had come from leading Kamo to open his eyes in shock at the common but smart strategy that the younger sorcerer had come up with.
“This one burns through cursed energy, so I can only use it by itself. I only recently tamed it,” Fushiguro explained before positioning his hands in front of him as he prepared the next shikigami that he was going to summon.
“Max elephant,” the shikigami user announced before the shadow below him began to merge into the shape of a pink elephant leading you to look at the animal with widened eyes as you didn’t expect such a large shikigami to appear right in front of you.
‘What the hell?’ you thought, as the elephant’s cheeks began to swell up while Kamo began to position himself into an attack position. However, it seemed the elephant was going to attack first as a suddenly sprouted out a massive wave of water that could fill up the ocean, causing you to yell out in shock before quickly deciding to stab your katana deeply into the ground to have something to hold on to as Kamo quickly swept into the mass of water leading to the wall behind to break.
“Maybe tell me when you are going to attack, you drag!” you yelled out to your classmate in anger as he rushed next to you causing your partner to look at you weirdly since you were kind of being hypocritical at this current moment in time.
“Just jump across to attack him while I use Nue to corner him!” Fushiguro stated to you in a serious tone, leading you to nod at him before launching yourself forward towards the sorcerer with your katana blade facing the opposite direction it was supposed to since you didn’t want to critically damage your opponent.
Behind you, Fushiguro interlocked his thumbs before fanning out the rest of his finger to represent wings as he swiftly summoned Nue into the battle leading the bird-like creature to strike him with lightning, paralysing Kamo for a second before he suddenly reached into his uniform to slowly reveal a bag of blood to which he then proceeded to throw the object in your direction, causing Nue to bump into you as if to move you away from the item as the blood bag quickly exploded causing the shikigami to be trapped within what seemed to be a rope of blood.
However, you could not let the sudden event faze you as you proceeded to place your foot to the side of the building you were pushed against before thrusting yourself downwards with extreme force to attack Kamo while Fushiguro dashed towards the same opponent to do the same thing.
“I can’t afford to lose!” Kamo screamed as he began to lung forward towards Fushiguro.
Suddenly, a large explosion destructively echoed behind you leading you to reach to the ground with one hand before riskily twisting the same hand to make your body spin before you quickly landed of your feet to the ground causing Fushiguro to look at you with a worried expression before all three of you peered up above to see a vast structure of what seemed to be wood, growing ever to rapidly in the air.
“What is this?” Kamo questioned in a panic before Fushiguro noticed someone running along the tiles rooftop from above.
“Inumaki-senpai?!” Fushguro yelled out in an alarmed tone causing you to look to the side to see your senior classmate running in what seemed to be incomplete adrenaline and fear.
“Run-away!” Inumaki spoke, causing his voice to ring out to everyone as they realised that it was his cursed technique that was occurring right now, causing your bodies to instantly run away from the mass destruction that was occurring right now.
                                              ꕥ
“Huh?” Utahime muttered as she stared at the how red flamed paper talisman while everyone in the room with her peered at them with the same surprised expression.
“The game’s over? And they all burned red?” Utahime questioned as the flames quickly extinguished themselves leading to a large volume of smoke remaining.
“That’s odd, my crows didn’t see anything,” MeiMei commented.
“I’d love to say Great Teacher Gojo’s students exorcised them all, but…” Gojo mentioned as he placed his hands together as if to tell everyone in the room that he was thinking of another solution that might have caused this issue as all the screens in front of them now became static.
“The charms will burn red for unregistered cursed energy,” Principal Yaga informed everyone.
“You think it’s an outsider? Some invader?” Utahime queried, as she turned to her colleague with a concerned expression on her face.
“Does this mean Tengen-sama’s barrier isn’t functioning?” MeiMei then asked, but it wasn’t answered as Principal Gakuganji made a comment. 
“Whether it’s an outsider or not, something unexpected is happening all the same,” he mentioned before wondering how this intruder was able to exorcise the semi-first-grade he had planted in order to assassinate Itadori Yuji.
“I’m going to Tengen-sama, Satoru and Principal Gakuganji, please protect the students. Mei, you stay here and identify the locations of the students, stay in constant contact with the other two,” Principal Yaga instructed everyone.
“Fully understood, I look forward to the bonus,” MeiMei mentioned, as she turned her head towards the sorcerer trying to convey that she was willing to follow his instruction with a price to pay.
“Come on, Gramps! Time for a walk! You just finished your lunch, didn’t you? I don’t want my daughter injured with you being slow!” Gojo stated in a light but playful tone as he clapped his hands twice to get the elder’s attention, leading the mentioned sorcerer to become silent and annoyed at the Six-Eye shaman.
“Let’s hurry!” Utahime mentioned as she was becoming worried about the time they were spending on talking in the room they were in rather than going out right now to help the students that were in trouble.
                                               ꕥ
Running forward, you couldn’t help but notice how the branch that was behind you was still extending leading you to quicken your pace as everyone turned to the right, only for the same branch to twist itself in the same directions causing you to come to the conclusion that it was either a skilled curse user or special-grade curse that was the cause of it.
‘Did the mole tell whoever is doing this the location of the event?’
Although, before you could come to another conclusion on who was the mole within the group of Kyoto students, you suddenly heard Fushiguro gasp leading you to snap out of your thinking daze to see a large number of branches breaking through the wooden door that was in front of you leading to a vast volume of debris to rushingly come towards you to which caused you to over your face, allowing the veil that was processing to drip down above you to engulf every student at this current moment in time.
Once the huge mass of debris cleared itself, you noticed the change in colour around you before you turned your head towards the mass of branches in front of you with what seemed to be a curse standing on top of its masterpiece as if to showcase its sudden appearance.
“Why is there a cursed spirit at Jujutsu Tech? Who does this veil belong to?” Kamo asked rapidly, as his head was tilted up to view the intruder in front of him.
“Probably the curse user working with the cursed spirit,” Fushiguro answered, as he too was looking at the curse in front of him leading Kamo to question his knowledge about the situation in hand, while Inumaki let out a cough, causing you to worry about his condition right now since you didn’t have a single clue on how much he had used his voice in the current situation.
“There are a few unregistered special-grade cursed spirits roaming around Japan right now, probably this one was the one that attacked Gojo-sensei before,” you informed the sorcerers in front of you as you slowly began to remember the silly little drawing your adoptive father had given you when you first met with the Kyoto side’s principal.
“Tuna with mayo,” Inumaki commented as he waved a hand to signal a phone leading Fushiguro to agree with his upperclassmen as he proceeded to pull out his phone to contact Gojo, while Kamo commented on how Fushiguro could understand his classmate at all since he was still perplexed on how the Toyko students could even convey with him as well.
‘Why does it only look at me…?’
Yet, it seems as if you weren’t concentrating on their little conversation as you kept an eye on the curse since it seemed to be staring at you for some odd reason, leading you to tightly grip the hilt of your katana, as you now shifted your eyes down to make sure your fellow sorcerers (who were in front of you right now) were safe for the time being.
“That doesn’t matter right now,” Fushiguro mentioned, as he placed his phone to his ear. “Maintain our distance and retreat to Gojo-sensei- '' Fushiguro then explained, but before he could finish his sentence, the curse swiftly moved behind Kamo before proceeding to break Fushiguro’s device from his hand.
“Don’t move!” Inumaki yelled out, leading to the curse freezing in its position before attacking Kamo, leading everyone to keep a distance away from the special-grade curse.
Suddenly, Kamo grabbed another bag of blood that he kept hidden within his uniform before letting it explode once again as he began to maintain control of the red substance. “Blood Manipulation: Slicing Exorcism!” Kamo yelled out before swinging the blood shaped shuriken towards your opponent, only for the curse to be left unscathed leaving the sorcerer to be surprised at the outcome.
Before the curse could even react, Nue suddenly appeared above you before flying downwards towards the special-grade curse with the same purple lightning you have gotten used to before Fushiguro suddenly swept in close to slash the curse with a sword he was hiding within his shadow like you had taught him to within the first week of training. However, it seemed that the katana’s dent that was made only healed as quickly as it appeared causing Fushiguro to tut in complete annoyance.
“.nerdlihc hsiloof, ti potS,”
“Stop it, foolish children,” the curse suddenly said, causing you to grab your head in surprise as you didn’t expect the curse that was in front of you right now to communicate to you at all since you didn’t have a clue on what it was saying but you somehow could understand it.
“I merely wish to protect this planet, that’s all,” the curse then explained, causing you to prepare your cursed energy to flow from your hand to your katana since you now knew that you needed to use your cursed technique to keep the others safe - yet you didn’t know how you could conceal the risk of being discovered.
“It’s a curse spouting nonsense! Don’t listen!” Kamo exclaimed intensely.
“This is on a whole different level than lower-grade cursed spirits,” Fushiguro then commented to Kamo as if it was obvious enough to everyone that was around that opponent at this current moment in time.
“The forests, the oceans, and the sky, all weep so vehemently that I can no longer stand it. It’s impossible to coexist with humans any longer. They know there are some humans who are kind to the planet, but how much does their affection even help?” the curse declared as it raised its head up to the sky as if it was speaking to a whole nation.
‘It somehow established its own language system...and somehow manages to communicate with us…’
“All they desire is time. This planet can shine blue once more, given a bit of time,” the curse spoke again before a sudden twist of branches appeared right behind the curse leading everyone that was in front of it to be on guard as the sudden impact that caused the ground to shake was evident enough on how dangerous this opponent was.
“Gojo Y/N...You can’t run, the veil is designed to keep you trapped within here...We need you for what is going to commence,” the curse suddenly declared causing you to look at it with wide eyes while all the boys turned to you with panicked expression painted on their faces since they were now concerned with your safety more right now than theirs.
‘I don’t know how long this curse spell will last, but I need to make sure it is enough to let everyone run before it can reach them’
“Is that so? Ah..what a drag,” you then asked, as you raised your katana up in the air with one hand as you gradually began to transfer a large amount of cursed energy within the blade. “You see, I began to notice that you seem to be a plant type of curse, I assume...something like wood right?” you rhetorically asked, before using your other hand to cover your mouth with the back of it to conceal the next few words that were going to come out of your mouth.
“Destructive Curse Spell number fifty-four: Haien,” you whispered before a sudden flame began to engulf the metal blade leading the boy to look at your weapon in astonishment at how wild the flames seemed to be due to the amount of cursed energy you had placed within the same blade. “So...why don’t you just burn to death them, would you?” you threatened in a low tone causing the boys to dash behind you before you swung your katana downwards to allow the flames to wildly and uncontrollably burst out in front of the special-grade curse leading to the building behind it to begin slowly extinguishing with the massive flames.
Turning around, you grabbed the fabric of Fushiguro’s and Inuamki’s uniforms (while yelling at Kamo to run) before using your strength as well as a hint of your cursed energy to violently push them forward away from the flames before running towards the same direction with them since this was the perfect opportunity to make a dash for it without any of the boys getting injured or harm in the process.
‘Whoever is responsible for the veil...is going to die..’

BnHA Chapter 314: ...Or You Live Long Enough to See Yourself Become the Villain
Previously on BnHA: Some random assholes were all “let’s throw exploding spears at All Might and see if it activates his Conqueror’s Haki” and SURPRISE, MOTHERFUCKERS, IT DID!! Elsewhere, Lady Nagant confusingly tried to capture Deku alive by shooting him in the stomach, but to be fair I guess that’s what happens when you send an assassin to do a bounty hunter’s job, so yeah. Deku was all “ouch”, and then because this is a shounen he basically just straight up forgot about it, and did a big fancy Smokescreen thing, and then activated his mildly incomprehensible new ki-blasting quirk which he got from the Third. En and the Third were all “hey Deku maybe let’s not just impulsively activate all this shit in the heat of battle when you don’t know how to use it yet and you’re already injured,” and Deku was all “thanks for the quirks guys but I’ll take it from here” and snuck up on Nagant and grabbed her arm and so now what’s going to happen I wonder.
Today on BnHA: Nagant is all “[shoots Deku again]” because of course she is lol. Deku is all “tell me about AFO!” and Nagant is all “why would I tell you anything?” and then proceeds to tell him her entire life story which is FILLED WITH SO MUCH MURDER, YOU GUYS. Holy shit. So basically she was an assassin for the HPSC, which we already knew, but somehow it’s one thing to know that, and another to actually see her running around capping dudes in the forehead and being covered in more blood than the elevator from The Shining. Anyway, so you’ll never believe it, but all that murder had a negative impact on her psychologically, and eventually led her to question everything she believed about hero society, and so she killed her creepy boss and was promptly sent to Tartarus. This extremely fun chapter ends with Overhaul showing up all “HI, HELLO, I’M STILL HERE”, because for some reason he is still here. Why are you still here, Overhaul.
“the beautiful Lady Nagant” oh you know your audience don’t you Horikoshi
well all right then! so I’m guessing this means that she is not, in fact, going to roll over and die just because Deku’s out here all “GOT YA!” like they’re playing a game or tag or something. ffff may the manga gods have mercy on our young suicidal protagonist
lmao so Deku is all “GOD I’M SO SMART, WHAT A GOOD STRATEGY I HAD, CAPITOL JOB THERE OL’ CHAP, CAPITOL” and lol, okay. I mean, it was a good plan though. but I’m still waiting for the other shoe to drop here
“I’ll make you give me information on All for One” well there you go, lol. Deku Angst arc still fully engaged. still no light in his eyes either of course. just a lil chaotic ball of sleep deprivation and rage
lol, fucking THANK YOU though
Tumblr media
oh my god what the hell did she do to him lol
Tumblr media
did she shoot him with her elbow??? fucking look at this?? THIS IS WHY WE LISTEN TO HAWKS oh my god Deku are you dead
WHAT’S HAPPENING, IS THIS GOOD OR BAD, WHO’S WINNING
Tumblr media
things that I wish I could tell from this panel which I unfortunately cannot tell
did she stab him or shoot him?? can you imagine if it was the former lol. why does Horikoshi keep stabbing all my kids. look Kacchan now the two of you can match
did she actually hit him or did he get away??
or did she hit him and then he jumped away?? just, what
well anyway, so now Deku is asking her why she sided with AFO, but he seems a lot more pissed off than when he was interrogating Muscular, though. probably because she shot him three times. fair enough
oh my god
Tumblr media
does Lady have a blog here on tumblr dot com?? -- does Horikoshi have a blog here on tumblr motherfucking dot com?? why do I suddenly feel like this man is out here sneakily reading up on all our discourse
oh my god Deku it’s almost like getting up close and personal with someone who can shoot custom bullets from any distance and any position with deadly accuracy was a terrible fucking idea
Tumblr media
IF ONLY SOMEONE HAD WARNED YOU NOT TO ENGAGE WITH HER AT ALL COSTS. IF ONLY SOMEONE HAD HAD THE FORESIGHT TO DO THAT sob. can you imagine how much shorter this series would be if characters actually listened to Hawks. Hawks, and Momo. why do we even let anyone else run the show ever
OH MY GOD
Tumblr media
DEKU, RUN
OH MY GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this looks a lot like what happens to me whenever I play One’s Justice. those fucking combo attacks that you can’t fucking escape from and so your character just has to stand there getting their ass whalloped repeatedly while you wonder why you paid $40 for this
but anyways though. so Lady who did you kill?? I bet they deserved it, don’t worry I forgive you
(ETA: ANYWAY SO FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT LADY NAGANT DID NOTHING WRONG EVER IN HER ENTIRE LIFE. aside from murdering all those innocent people and shit. but there were CIRCUMSTANCES, and THEY WERE EXTENUATING, OKAY.)
-- holy shit
Tumblr media
looks like the HPSC arc is back on the menu boys
so are we about to learn that the HPSC was going full Hydra on people’s asses? secretly dispatching anyone they deemed a threat to society?? “taken care of” as in you fucking shot them??
so then was the “hero” she killed actually one of the guys who was giving or carrying out these orders?? holy shit Lady, up until now I’ve mainly just been stanning you for your flawless eyebrow game and metal af quirk, but this shit could actually get real very quickly, and I am prepared to genuinely and sincerely love the shit out of you depending on what we learn next about your backstory
oh my god?!?
Tumblr media
so wait, hold up. am I reading this right?? basically the HPSC started murdering vigilantes because they were worried they were gaining too much of the public’s favor?? holy fucking shit???
oh my GOD oh my god
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“it’s been a while since I scarred you all with the dead dog and the graphic slaughter of an entire innocent family, huh,” Horikoshi says thoughtfully. “anyway so what do you all think of my new creation, the Spaghetti Bullet.” well, Horikoshi, so you know that squished-up face that Kermit the Frog makes sometimes? yeah. that’s what I think, if you must know lol
holy hell the juxtaposition
Tumblr media
I’m actually kind of surprised to learn she had a lot of fans? what with her M.O., I was expecting her to have been an underground hero like Aizawa, but apparently not? then again I still have absolutely no idea how any of that works. I really need to read Vigilantes already
oh snap
Tumblr media
nothing like a sweet dose of assassin trauma to finally round out our BnHA Trauma Bingo!! well done guys, we finally collected all of the traumas! hooray!
noooo Ladyyyyyyy
Tumblr media
holy shit what a fucking chapter. like, this man promised us an assassin, and went and fucking delivered. I was not expecting it to be this dark, lol, but holy shit I am here for it
you know, at some point you have to start questioning the logistics of this, though
Tumblr media
I mean, how do I put this... her quirk isn’t exactly subtle. that murder scene from a few pages back looked like the first season of Dexter for fuck’s sake, that’s not exactly “disappearing” people now is it?? and I mean, her bullets are literally made from her own fucking hair; it seems like it would be impossible not to leave any evidence behind. did no one start to wonder who the fuck was going around murdering all these people? or did the people who asked too many questions wind up getting conveniently “disappeared” themselves??
and hey, speaking of asking too many questions
Tumblr media
holy shit is he blackmailing her??!? or no, wait -- what the hell is he reaching for in his pocket boy you better not
(ETA: what exactly was this man expecting fdslkjd. “uh oh my unstoppable hair trigger assassin who is literally always armed is asking questions, better announce that I am going to shoot her and then reach into my pocket veeeeeery slowly while she stands there all of two feet away.” how did this guy ever function as the head of a shadow government with these decision-making skills, I’m genuinely baffled.)
OH MY GOD LADY YES
Tumblr media
this. right here. is why “run the fuck away” was damn good solid fucking advice. oh shit. but my god did this dude have it coming
so wait lol has she just been narrating all of this out loud to Deku this entire time
Tumblr media
okay but can we just stop for a moment and appreciate the fact that they’re having this deep conversation about the dark secrets of hero society right in the middle of their intense mid-air sniper free-for-all lol
holy shit you guys, Nagant’s the one that should have made the tell-all video. I mean, no offense to you, Dabi, I’m sure you worked very hard on your video and did a ton of crunches every day so that you would look good with your shirt off while you told the world all about how your dad was a jerk. but seriously...
Tumblr media
this is already like 100x more convincing than what he put out. also, gasp, is it another flashback
yes it is oh my gosh
Tumblr media
so the HPSC Chairladyperson whom ReDestro killed used to be this guy’s direct subordinate, huh? I wonder if she kept the whole assassin program going after she took over. can’t say I was feeling any particular kind of grieving way about her death before, but certainly not now lol
but unfortunately Nagant has finally lost me at the same place where all of the villains inevitably do, which is to say when they somehow make the dubious mental leap from “society sucks and is bad” to “let’s just be openly fucking evil lol, worth a shot.” because when heroes murder innocent people and cover it up, that’s obviously bad (and I mean, it absolutely fucking is lol, don’t get me wrong); but when villains murder innocent people straight up out in the open without giving a fuck, they’re righteous revolutionaries? just -- is there really no non-murdery middle ground here?? I guess that’s what Deku and co. are for, hopefully
anyways oh shit Deku seems to have spotted something?? and he’s doing something weird with Blackwhip what
Tumblr media
oh, he spotted her, I guess
lmaooooo
Tumblr media
new favorite Deku panel right here. a masterpiece
oh my god you guys our little boy is starting to grow up before our eyes
Tumblr media
you love to see it. and you can tell with those elipses that he’s gearing up to say something really cool and determined and badass like the shounen protag he is, yes please, Deku ilu so much please do your thing
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Tumblr media
IS THAT A TEENY TINY LIL EYE SPARKLE THERE OMG. still not anywhere close to his usual standard, but that’s some clear resolve there in his eyes there at long last! it always shines the most clearly when he’s being true to himself and his ideals, so I love that it finally shows up again here, when he’s reaffirming his resolve to help others no matter what
uh oh so what’s Lady going to do now
Tumblr media
is it time for a trump card?? kinda sounding like it’s time for a trump card
???
Tumblr media
I lied btw, this is my new favorite Deku panel. but anyways what is she up to now lol
ohhhhhh, lol
Tumblr media
why does she seem shocked, lol. here I thought this was part of her plan, but apparently she forgot all about ol’ “Look Ma, No Hands” back up there
and so I guess that’s it for this week! so we’ve learned basically everything now about Lady and her quirk and her history with the HPSC and why she agreed to work for AFO. pretty much the only question that still remains is why the hell she decided to drag this asshole along for the ride! because I still cannot figure that out dsklkjlkf
(ETA: actually now I’m kind of wondering if they maybe have some past connection we don’t know about yet. when exactly was Nagant sent to Tartarus? is it possible she was ordered to track down and kill Overhaul at some point before that, but never got around to it? or something else along those lines? idk but now I’m curious.)
anyways Deku, I know that your empathy has no bounds and that you’re on a “saving villains” kick right now, and good on you... but also, if you decide to just like, skip all of that shit just this once, absolutely no one will hold it against you, I’m just saying. just, all I’m asking here is maybe let’s think twice before we start trying to reform guys who imprison and torture little girls for profit. I think maybe that’s a good place to draw the line. next week is going to be a very interesting chapter lol

Okay I legitimately imagine a Casual Pokémon Geographic of Croagunk will just have a compilation of Croagunk Poison Jabbing people towards the end of it. Just, this Pokémon can and will fuck you up if need be, so don't test them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've finally gotten around to the Croagunk Casual Geographic asks! Hooray! It took me a while to get through this because there's a whole bunch of other asks that kept coming and everything kinda got buried. With school emerging from the depths of the ocean once more, it's going to get slower to answer these asks 😅 ONTO THE ASKS!
Casual Geographic Soni: "I'm surprised by how many people like Croagunk's vibes, so I'm gonna talk about our favorite Poisonous frog buddy."
Tumblr media
Casual Geographic Soni: "As you see from the videos, everyone is getting vibechecked by this guy. Why? Because they were idiots. Quite literally they tried to gang up on Croagunk and ended up getting slapped so hard that people on the other side of the world winced."
Casual Geographic Soni: "Don't think that this toxic frog is dumb-looking because its species is known for rarely fighting fair. Granted, this is based on survival reasons, which makes sense in the grand scheme of things."
Casual Geographic Soni: "The world of Pokemon is pretty dangerous and letting down your guard is the equivalent of 'You got what you deserve' to the Wild Pokemon. Not to mention, messing with a toxic, poison-jabbing frog like our Croagunk will get everyone to say that you really deserved that, you dumbass."
Tumblr media
Casual Geographic Soni: "Despite how the Pokemon looks and acts at times, they do have personalities. Every Pokemon does, but some of them get a bad rap for how they look. Some can be mischievous, some have a sense of humor, some of them are shy, but in our case here at our school, Croagunk hates chaos and wants to live a chill life, taking violent means to do so and is often the one who establishes peace in the school."
Casual Geographic Soni: "Believe it or not, Croagunk is actually the mascot of a pharmaceutical company back home. How or why was that even approved, you might ask? Well, turns out that if you dilute the poison that Croagunk produces, it becomes medicinal. Pretty nifty, but unless you know what you're doing, it's best not to drink the poison from Croagunk."
Casual Geographic Soni: "Our resident Croagunk is often in fights with Swanna, and that's a well-known fact by this point. However, Croagunk also fights against our resident Mr. Horns, who still won't tell me his name for some reason, and it's pretty amazing how Croagunk just brushes off the attacks like it's nothing."
Casual Geographic Soni: "And- oh no, there's Swanna. Swanna! I already did your video. Please let Croagunk have his time- No, stop fighting, you two-!"
*Video Ends*

Missing you comes in waves and tonight I'm drowning
Summary:
After seeing Loki disappear before his eyes and confined to the TVA because of the failed mission, Mobius decides to still believe in Loki and search for him. He witnesses the discussion between Sylvie and Loki on the train
Notes:
My theories on the method used by Mobius to locate Loki is probably very far-fetched and lacks technical truth, but that's not the most important point here, so I hope you'll forgive me for my short cuts. (I miss them together!)

"Loki! Wait!"
Loki looked at him for a moment before stepping through the portal.
By the time they got there, it was too late Loki and the portal was gone.
"I knew he would betray us as soon as he could!" said one of the hunters right next to Mobius.
"Shut up!" shouted Mobius at him before returning to the TVA.
As he walked toward Ravonna's office, the same thoughts swirled over and over in his head.
Had Loki betrayed him! What were his plans? But worst of all, was he in danger?
He tried to think rationally.
Loki always said he was one step ahead, but Mobius knew that wasn't true. Loki was improvising. Loki was adapting. So reason told Mobius that this is what he had done.
That's when Mobius decided to do something he'd never done in his life at the TVA, he was going to bet on chaos. On the fact that Loki had chosen to follow the variant not only for his own sake but also because it was his mission.
Because Mobius could not imagine that what they had shared was nothing in the eyes of the god.
"Mobius! In my office!"
Ravonna... he was already imagining her reprimands, "I warned you" "he can't be trusted"...
As soon as he entered her office, she showed him a screen and just said, "Look!"
A scene showing the variant fighting in a hallway with the guards and Loki in the locker room retrieving his daggers then arriving at the place where the guards were eliminated.
Next scene Loki and the variant fighting, Loki trying to convince her to team up, at this point, despite the faith he has in him, Mobius could not determine if this is a way to stop her or get what he wants.
Then Rovenna arrives and the variant uses Loki as a hostage.
Mobius could not prevent a gasp.
Still on the screen, seeing that Rovenna is not persuaded, Loki grabs an object that opens a portal above them and he and the Variant disappear.
Mobius tried not to show his relief, but he saw that Rovenna was not fooled.
"So you still trust him?"
Mobius looked at her defiantly, "As long as I don't have concrete, real proof that he betrayed us, yes I’ll trust him!"
"Always the idealistic dreamer huh?"
Mobius didn't answer, Rovenna continued, "You're grounded here until I tell you otherwise. You can get out."
Once out, Mobius sat in a chair, held his head in his hands, and began to think. He was grounded, but there was nothing to stop him from trying to figure out where Loki was.
He just had to figure out how to locate him.
The difference was that now, thanks to Loki, he knew to look in the apocalypses, what he had to find now was the equivalent of that candy, something out of the ordinary, something anachronistic.
He stood up suddenly, he had found it!
He went to the office, where the screen that displayed all the nexuses was located.
"Casey! Come here!"
The younger man got up and joined him. Mobius spoke more softly, "Will you help me with a secret project?"
Casey, who had great respect for the man, nodded.
"Follow me."
They headed into the archive room. Mobius chose a table a little out of the way.
"You sit here. I'll be right back."
A few minutes later, he returned with a stack of files that he separated into two piles.
"In all these apocalypses, we need to find one where it mentions two Lokis variants and unusual magical acts."
"Got it!"
Mobius didn't know if his smoky theory would work out, but he didn't have much choice.
He couldn't help but think back to a similar scene a few days earlier, when Loki had fallen asleep. He had let his guard down in the presence of Mobius, so that meant something, didn't it?
He started to flip through the files.
"M-Mobius! I think I've got it!"
Casey was showing him a file, Lamentis-1 - 2077, a woman reports that two demons tried to attack her. One even allegedly posed as her deceased husband in order to get information.
Mobius could feel it in his bones. It was Loki and the Variant.
He was going to have to gamble on someone again.
"Casey. I need you to keep this a secret for a while longer. If Ravonna gets wind of this, I'm afraid she'll launch an assault and won't hesitate to eliminate Loki."
Casey nodded without taking time to think, "As long as you need Mobius."
Mobius was surprised that he didn't have to persuade Casey more than that.
After all, he seemed to be the good, loyal employee who never disobeyed.
Casey, seeing his reaction, added with a knowing smile, "You know, I like Loki too. He promised me he'd show me what a fish is and you know? The drink he took from me the other day, he bought me another one and apologized. A villain wouldn't take the time to do something like that right?"
Mobius's throat tightened. Casey was the first person other than himself to acknowledge that there was good in Loki.
"Thanks."
Casey nodded and returned to his desk.
Mobius headed straight for the video archive room. The advantage of being an agent of his rank was that he had unrestricted access to this section of the archives.
He searched through the shelves until he found the videos of Lamentis 1 in 2077.
He sat down in front of one of the small projectors provided for this purpose. He was going to start from the described scene that Casey had shown him.
After entering a few parameters, the screen lit up with Loki being blasted by an old woman.
The noise of the meteors that rained down around
Loki and the one who accompanied him, prevented Mobius from hearing what was being said.He pressed the fast-forward button until Loki and the girl, after some trouble to enter the train, found themselves in a box in the dining car.
He turned up the volume to hear their conversation.
He was amazed at how easily they seemed to converse, despite the jabs on both sides, and couldn't help a twinge of annoyance that he refused to recognize as jealousy.
The variant said to Loki, mockingly, "FYI, that wasn't even a plan."
"Oh, really?"
God how Mobius missed that cheeky attitude. Even when unmasked, Loki still had that irritating confidence.
The variant replied, "Plans have multiple steps. Dressing as a guard and getting on a train is just doing a thing."
She couldn't hold back a yawn.
Loki responded, "Oh, are you a bit tired? Feel free to, you know, get some rest."
One thing Mobius had realized and Casey had confirmed to him just before was that Loki cared more about others than he let on if you paid attention.
The variant grunted and replied, "I can't sleep in a place like this."
"You can't sleep on a train?"
The variant retorted, irritated, "No. I can't sleep around untrustworthy people."
Loki replied, still cheeky, "Oh, right. That's me?"
Fearing he might misinterpret what had been said, Mobius pressed rewind and let the scene play out before him.
The image of Loki nodding in agreement about not being able to sleep near people he couldn't trust was superimposed on the image of Loki sound asleep in his company.
He could not suppress the pang of his heart.
Loki trusted him, Loki considered him trustworthy.
While he was thinking, the video had continued and Loki was now talking about his mother.
Mobius had witnessed Loki's relationship with his mother and his devastation at the news of her death.
Loki's voice had become more hushed, with that hint of fragility he had whenever he spoke of her.
"She was, um... A Queen of Asgard. She was good. Purely decent."
Then the variant and Loki respectively provoked each other about the fact that they were adopted and Loki continued, "You know, when I was young, she'd do these little bits of magic for me. Like turn a flower into a frog or cast fireworks over the water. It all seemed impossible. But she told me that I'd be able to do it too because... Because I could do anything. You wanna see?"
Loki sets off tiny fireworks over his hand.
Mobius could not deny his feelings at that moment.
The sight of magic coming from Loki's hands, pure magic, was enchanting.
Loki continued, "She was the kinda person you'd want to believe in you."
Mobius could not help but whisper, "Loki, I believe in you."
For a few moments he didn't catch the conversation until it was audible again. Apparently they were talking about their love interests.
The variant asked Loki, "How about you? You're a prince. Must've been would-be-princesses or perhaps, another prince." She finished with a wink.
Loki, replied with a serious look, "A bit of both. I suspect the same as you. But, nothing ever..."
The variant finished his sentence, "real."
"Let me find you and I'll prove to you how real it is." Mobius didn't realize he was speaking aloud. He pushed fast-forward again.
The Variant had fallen asleep and Loki looked a little giddy.
Loki waved his hand and was back in his TVA agent costume.
He could wear the illusion of any outfit, and he chose this one. Why stay in these clothes?
Mobius really didn't want to be under any illusions, because how could he imagine that someone like Loki, a prince, a god, would want to claim a belonging to something like the TVA... to someone like Mobius?
Loki had started to dance and sing.
Mobius could not help but laugh. Then his laughter died down as Loki's song became more melancholic,
I stormsvarte fjell, jeg vandrer alene
Over isbreen tar jeg meg frem
I eplehagen står møyen den vene
og synger "når kommer du hjem?"
Men traner danser og fossene stanser
når hun synger, hun synger "kom hjem"
Then seeming to regain his spirits, Loki began to dance and sing happily again as if trying to prevent nostalgia from invading him.
When the music stopped, he joined the Variant and resumed his seat in front of him. Mobius managed to understand what they were saying to each other.
"What did you just sing to look so disturbed?"
Loki looked a little moved and answered him with the voice Mobius knew well, the one he used when he was serious, when he was sincere.
"It's Asgardian, it says:
In storm-black mountains, I wander alone
Over the glacier I make my way
In the apple garden stands the maiden fair and sings,
"When will you come home?"
Loki stopped, apparently moved, and the Variant simply said, "So there's a would-be-princess somewhere..."
Loki chuckled looking so sad before answering her, "I like metaphors you know, it's not a princess it's a prince, and I don't know if he's waiting for me or hoping to see me again, it's not even really my home, but..."
"But you'd like to believe that right?"
Loki nodded.
Mobius, didn't dare to believe that it was him that Loki was talking about, even though he couldn't stop the hope from rising up inside him.
The video continued, much more animated, after a wild fight, both jumped off the moving train and found themselves walking through a kind of desert towards the energy source they apparently needed to reactivate the tempad.
Mobius saw Loki suddenly stop, looking shocked. But Mobius was unable to hear what they were saying, the sound of the meteors again covering their voices.
Suddenly, Loki shouted louder, "But they don't know that!"
And they began to run.
Mobius could see that Loki was repeating something as he ran, an expression that Mobius had never seen on his face. Like he was worried. But he couldn't hear him. He zoomed in closer to try to read Loki's lips and finally succeeded.
Mobius.

... I just love OTPs, I can't help it.
OTP HEADCANONS: 2020 Edition
These will include the series of Red Queen, Dorothy Must Die, SGE, The Folk of The Air, and Nightmare Before Christmas(I'll throw in the Skellington kids, too, because I love them💙)
MAJOR TW FOR ALL THE EVENTS THAT OCCURED IN 2020, AND THAT INCLUDES QUARANTINE.
RED QUEEN:
At the news of a Pandemic, Mare and Cal are equally confused and scared, but at least they're not on the battlefield.
They hold up in Paradise Valley until the quarantine is lifted.
It starts off fine with them doing puzzles, hiking, and doing some exercises to pass the time. Then 3 weeks pass and both are bored; Mare's bored enough to drink coffee onto of the fridge and Cal's sitting in a chair upside down because fuck court etiquette, he's so bored.
Cal contemplates luring wolves with dinner scraps again.
They had a mini argument that meant nothing because Cal's hair got long and he wanted Mare to cut it, she but only offered to shave his stubble, not cut his hair.
They both get a lot of sleep, and have a lot of nightmares, which they comfort each other from.
They also really enjoy the silence.
Cal gets into poetry and Mare paints. Both are surprised at how good the other is at their new hobbies.
They talk. A lot. It begins awkwardly and ends with the two in each other's arms.
Cal becomes more of a punner, and Mare loves and hates it.
There's tall of getting a dog, but there's one problem: Paradise Valley doesn't have any shelters, and they'll be arrested or forced ro turn back hime, regardless of rank.
Mare grows taller... by 2 inches. She almost killed Cal for how much he laughed.
When they're allowed to go out, Mare often forgets to bring her mask.
Cal's good at remembering their masks.
Mare REFUSES to leave when she hears about the murder hornets.
Cal gets repellent to calm her down.
They also recover some Old Era TV Shows.
ENDLESS quotes from The Office, Friends, and many more shows.
Cal visits Maven's grave more. Mare comes with every now and then, but usually lets him go alone.
They don't usually argue, but those arguments never last.
They tried a bit of ability training, and greed that they should be careful when Mare summoned a bolt of lightning from the sky and Cal almost set fire to everything around them.
They read a lot, too, but Cal reads more than Mare because she falls asleep, usually on him.
DOROTHY MUST DIE:
Nox had no clue what a Pandemic was, or what the big deal was about going outside and not being near people, until Amy explained it.
First day of online school crashed and burned because Nox had NO IDEA what he was doing, which led to Amy 'accompanying' him in classes.
Amy puts her college plans on hold for a little while.
Nox is more emotional and neither of them know how to handle it.
They have more nightmares, since there's nothing to keep their minds busy, but Amy is more reserved about it. Nox prefers to write about what he dreams, anyway.
Nox stays up, from all the nightmares, but Amy sits with him to keep him company.
When Amy heard about the murder hornets, Nox held up a fly swatter and opened all the windows.
Amy does fine, but Nox dies from boredom, when they're done with school. And I don't mean he just sits and groans, he lies face down on the couch as Amy tries to get him up.
They spend A LOT of time in Nox's apartment, and it's literally spotless because Nox is THAT bored.
They binge a lot of TV shows, and Nox falls in love with shows like Peaky Blinders.
They tried watching Game of Thrones. It didn't go well; negative past experiences.
Nox figured out the plot twist to The Umbrella Academy WAY before Amy did.
They watched Heathers and Amy asked Nox what he'd do if she was dealing with trash friends and guys who don't take 'no' for an answer. The look on his face when he asked who it was reminded Amy of who he was before meeting her.
Nox finds YouTube and discovers the guy that makes knives out of anything and makes it his mission to copy each and every video, come Hell or high water.
Amy walked in on him doing this and genuinely wondered if he was okay, and asked if she could help him.
They also binged musicals. Nox isn't a huge music person, but he still loves them; Kansas has its own magic that he finds intriguing.
Amy once found Nox crouching ontop of the fridge while drinking a mug of coffee.
Madison stopped by and dropped off some rhinestones, lash glue, and a tool to apply the stones. Amy spent a lot of time putting the stones on her face while Nox watched, with Madison and Dustin also watching via Facetime, sitting backwards in a chair and wondering what her plan was, even making very Julien Solomita-esque comments, mixed with very 'I used to be a fighter and a spy' comments that made Amy, Madison, and Dustin laugh. Some if those comments:
"I know Glamora told you to lighten up, but I don't she'd expect this."
"If those were real diamonds, you wouldn't need any armor or a weapon. Just headbutt them, and you're good."
"Don't be upset, but it's the beginning of summer, so I don't think winter's coming any time soon."
"Whichever chandelier you made out with, I will find them, damn it."
After a little while, Amy asked if Nox wanted a rhinestone face. He agreed, but only as long as she took out all the red stones. He could handle pink, but no red.
It took them an hour to get the stones off.
Their hair gets long and they agree to cut each other's hair. Nox cuts her hair chin length and Amy tries to be as style his hair. They don't look the best, but they at least look good.
They absolutely watch Unus Annus, and start quoting that.
When they get the news they can go out wearing a mask, Nox got confused and got 3 different masks: a masquerade mask, a normal face mask, and a gas mask, which he wears all the time to annoy Amy.
They do stay in shape as much as possible, but there is evidence that they could have been more active, with their muscles shrinking and both having lost a little weight.
Nox NEVER drops his guard, and quarantine didn't help.
They tried dying their hair, but it didn't work as well as they'd hoped.
SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL:
Tedros worries about Agatha and everyone else, but Agatha keeps him in check.
Crime drops big time, so that's a plus for Tedros and Agatha.
They have more time to breathe, with everyone being inside and avoiding each other.
Tedros hates the quiet at first, but Agatha helps him adjust.
They spend a lot of time wandering the castle and answering whatever call there is, if any.
The SGE is out for a little while, so they don't hear too much from there.
Tedros, without normal king business to distract him, has more nightmares and starts losing sleep because he doesn't want to dream about what's happened to him and his friends.
Agatha has nightmares, too, but she's better at hiding it.
They do talk about it and agree to be more open with what's going on in their heads.
They also agree that they'll help each other through these times.
Tedros helps Agatha with swordplay and Agatha both gets him into reading more and tries to help him with his magic.
Whenever there's something they need outside, Agatha gets it because she's not that afraid of getting sick; she grew up eating frog and lizard soup.
Tedros worries about her, but doesn't really stop her because she's taller, and having fun trying to stop Agatha once she's committed to doing something.
Tedros finds a new hobby: origami.
Agatha doesn't join in, per se, she more watches because she's never seen Tedros be so patient with something.
They play around with each other's hair, as it grows longer. Agatha ties Tedros's hair back and Tedros braids her hair.
They write to Sophie or anyone else, like people who have some sort of report of a crime or complaint duch as infertile soil, so their penmanship improves.
Tedros grows a bit of a stubble and, after some prickly kiss attacks, Agatha threatens to shave it off herself, if he doesn't. It's all in good fun, but she sort of did mean it because his face and cheeks were really scratchy.
Tedros REFUSES to let Agatha go out alone, even when she's masked up.
When they go out, Tedros always carries a sword.
Picnics in the woods.
Star gazing at night.
Agatha starts wearing pants, as an experiment, and her "dresser"/dress designer is APPALLED.
There are times they argue, but they stay together and communicate because relationship goals.
THE CRUEL PRINCE:
At the news of a Pandemic/plague, Cardan ordered all the human servants to get as healthy as they could so they'd be able to go outside. He would accompany them, but they could not let Jude go out.
She's not happy, when she finds out
Cardan asks if she can avoid going to the human world, so she doesn't get sick.
She goes anyway and returns unscathed.
Cardan considers glamoring the human servants to keeep Jude healthy, but Jude almost pincushions him for it.
Anxious? Worried? Psh! Don't be silly. Cardan becomes somethimg if a paranoid maniac because he's scared of Jude getting sick and dying because he's Fae and she's Mortal, so she's more susceptible to illnesses and he doesn't know wnoufh about mortals to get her healthy agaun were she to get sick, but there's nothing wroung with him, really.
Whenever they're not ruling, Jude practices her swordplay while Cardan reads, major plus being that he reads full series to not worry about Jude so much.
Jude helps Cardan with sword fighting, using wooden practice swords not metal, and Cardan helps her try to get into reading, reading to her as she rests her head on his chest when she doesn't want to read read.
Cardan discovers manga and graphic novels and is too confused for Jude NOT to laugh; "He's in armor made if IRON. How is he able to fly!?" "I've seen a lot people different people, and none of them have made this face." "... So is Spiderman THIS one or THIS one?"
Sword practice usually ends with Cardan on the ground exhausted while Jude simply stands and chuckles for him to get up.
Cardan doesn't get beat smd scarred, he gets poked and minorly bruised, which he was not ready for because of how he was treated by Balekin.
One day, while Cardan was reading some Sherlock Holmes, Jude slipped hoop bracelets on and tied ribbons to his tail, at least as many as she could before she got caught; she only realized as such when his tail started flicking out of her reach and curling around her wrist, and saw Cardan grinning at her.
They do visit Taryn and Vivi still, but Cardan only wears a mask to remind Jude, who does not forget ever.
Cardan thinks about his 'friendship' Nicasia, Locke, and Valerian and semi-realizes that Valerian and Locke may have been using him while Nicasia was at least a little genuine.
They talk about Locke and equally wish that they had helped Taryn in killing Locke. If not, then they wish that they at least watched. They agreed that if time travel was real, Jude could help Trayn kill Locke and Cardan could watch, as long as he helped dispose of the body.
They laughed at that a couple minutes later.
THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS(Featuring the Skellington kids(I'd say Skull Kids, but I feel like Skull Kid(s) was taken)):
Jack knows what a Pandemic is; he lived through one while he was alive.
Sally knew it would happen because she knows one happens about every two hundred years/whenever a year ends in 20.
The triplets know what a plague is, but have never seen one actually happen.
When they explored the human world at night and noticed there were absolutely no humans in sight, Luna reminded her brothers that the humans were told to stay inside to prevent any spreading.
Jacob takes the opportunity to MAKE SURE people actually stay inside.
Pro: he got Instagram famous. Con: Jack and Sally were not happy at all with how reckless he was.
Let's say, for the sake of the story, Halloween had to be cancelled worldwide because regulation and a need for things to get better.
Upon hearing the news of Halloween getting cancelled, Jack was very salty about it; "Why cancel Halloween, if the 4th of July was still allowed to be celebrated?"
All of Halloween Town was very upset; the living are so fragile, it ruins the fun of scaring them.
The Mayor was in deep, DEEP distress, but Jack made it up to him, and the rest of the town, by saying next year's Halloween would be ine no one would ever forget, and it's not because he's 'borrowing' a holiday again, it's because they'll all have a year of scaring shenanigans built up inside them all that will make up for what was missed.
Everyone rejoiced and Jack, once he got back inside his house with his wife and children, sighed and mentally kicked himself for saying no one would forget next year's Halloween; there was one Halloween in particular he sure as hell isn't forgetting any time soon.
Daemon's carving more intricate pumpkins and plans on giving the humans mini-scares so they keep quarantining, hiding a 'surprise' for any entitled Karens he finds.
Luna is the most obedient of the triplets by staying in Halloween Town and instead studying what she calls a 'counter-plague' so there's no need for a Pandemic; she refuses to call it a vaccine because that would imply sje wants to help the humans that shot down and could have killed her dad. She still has a bone to pick.
Jack doesn't spiral out like in the movie, he has Sally to help and the triplets to keep his mind busy.
While Jacob and Daemon keep the humans from leaving their houses, Luna researches the current events and learns of murder hornets that are large, sting like all hell, and cause death to anyone unfortunate enough to get stung.
Jack gets very intrigued and they collect as many as they can and keep them in a jar, but take one out to study it.
They were not impressed; murder hornets? Jack has seen worse.
Since there wasn't a Halloween, Jack decided to walk through the streets, seeing as how Daemon and Jacob already did a lot of the scaring for him(thise little shits). He had to admit, it was nice to walk in the night and only hear the animal sounds and not screams.
Luna did not find a 'counter-plague,' even with Sally's help, but she did discover some poisons she could use against her brothers. Sally made her promise not to do so.
On the Halloween night where nothing happened, Jack took his family out to a picnic/star gazing session. Genuinely one of his favorite Halloweens to date.
HENRY STICKMIM COLLECTION:
Henry and Ellie knew it was going to happen and were more than surprised to also see Charles planning ahead by making a list for what they needed, even admitting he'd been following the news and rumors and stocking up on ADD medicine so he wouldn't have to go out to get them.
The other soldiers weren't worried until they were told to go home and take a break for a little bit.
Triple Threat wasn't really effected until day 24.
On day 1, they just hung out and were relatively calm, working online, doing workouts to stay fit, and just being as normal as possible.
On day 24, all three are more than a little bored. Henry's bored enough to andwer calls from telemarketers and prank them, Ellie's contemplating bleaching her hair with peroxide, and Charles is playing with fidget toys he's bough and collected over the years, though he's doing it more because he's a little stressed than bored.
Henry and Ellie are surprised to this this, but Charles admits he used to bite his nails a lot, but stopped after a LONG while.
Speaking of names, Ellie paints hers and the boys', though while Henry paints his in clear coat, Charles paints one hand black and the other in red, mint, and glittery pink on one nail because try stopping him.
It makes Ellie laugh and pisses off Henry so much.
Ellie gets calls from her family saying they want her to come home, or closer to home, because they're worried and she instead blocks their numbers.
They watch a lot of horror movies as a reason to stay inside.
When they get bored of American horror and try Japanese, Asian, and more western horror movies.
Instant regret.
They watched the movie Audition and Henry looked at a very unimpressed Charles, who said the antagonist was being sloppy, and hid all the kitchen knives, saws, and sharp and blunt objects, including tools(must've remembered Human Piece).
He stopped after a week of Charles being himself and literally shaking at Hannibal Lecter as they watched the Silence of The Lambs series.
All three open up more about their lives. It's ugly, there's yelling, conflicting life philosophies, and even some insults thrown. Henry admits that gotten screwed over by the law enough times while fending for himself to have as little faith in it as possible, Ellie admits she ran away from home and would rather die than go back because of how tight of a leash they kept her on, and Charles admits that while he has thought about quitting on the government and turning to a life of crime, he never did because that would have been to easy of a choice. Training for the military was and still is hard as hell, which Henry and Ellie can tell because Charles can physically do more than them(if they ran a mile, Henry and Ellie would be exhausted and Charles wouldn't even be out of breath), but he's never given up on it because he knew his parents would skin him, if they were still alive.
There were tears at the end, and the team all needing to be alone for a little bit, but they were back together and agreed to be a little more open with each other, since they were a team now.

Alright, here’s my version of this trailer where I was thinking through my head to imagine what it is. I know it’s not that perfect, but here we go.
Took a leap through a box super weird to a swamp where frogs talk.
Now it’s done got no plans just my luck I’ll do the best that I can.
Making friends and enemies, it’s weird but hey it’s grown on me!
“I will rule not only this world, but all worlds!”
“You’ll never get away with this!”
“I give you this! I gave you everything!”
“We’ll right with you Anne, til the end.”
“Me and Grime will hold him! Just go!”
“I just….. didn’t want to be alone.”
“No, it can’t be?!
“Polly, get the box! Get the box!”
“Give him back. Give. Him. BACK!!!
“I’m sorry……for everything.”
“MARCY!!!”
The box fell when it sends Anne and the Plantars back home, but what they didn’t expect to see some cartoon characters standing in front of them and one of them recognize her face.
“Anne?”
“Mickey?”
Then it shows from the partner statue to riverboat and from train station to a castle. Princesses greeting their fans and Pixar Pals waving their arms.
“Oh my frog!”
“What is this place?”
“Welcome to the Happiest Place On Earth!”
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
Later we see Mickey showing Anne and the Plantars to Los Angeles and finally reunite with her parents. Meanwhile in Newtopia castle, robot frogs are guarding and scanning for intruders. King Andrias summoned one frog robot to attack Anne and her family. The next part where we see Sasha tossed out from the window by Grime as they escape from the castle. Then it shows General Yunaan and Lady Olivia are standing in front of the huge door. Next part where it shows group of kids that took a break from filming.
“Who’s that Phineas?”
“Oh, hey there.”
“I know who you guys are.”
“Cool! You must be our fan for the music band.”
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
We see Pluto licking at Anne smiling. Polly is with Huey, Dewey, and Louie made a huge prank on Donald. Timon and Pumbaa are offering some grubs to Sprig that he really likes while Anne was uncomfortable. Stitch landed in front of Anne and Sprig as they startled. Tigger pounced on Sprig and landed on top of him. Anne is playing basketball with her team against the Beagle Boys. Later at night, Anne and her family arrived at the House of Mouse.
“Okay, very funny guys. What’s the big deal?”
“SURPRISE!!!!” shouted all the characters when it reveals that it was her belated birthday party. Anne smiled softly with tears.
“Happy Birthday Anne. Ha ha.” said Mickey
Suddenly, the party was interrupted when an evil fairy, Maleficent appeared on stage shocking everyone. She raised her staff with dark magic revealing their future.
“The time has come. The end is near. An evil threat that will invade our world led by an evil king controlling his entire army! And there is a great discovery that was once stolen that holds the key to unlock its power, the Calamity Box!”
“Oh no, I’m freaking out hard.” commented Eeyore.
Maleficent vanished when she laughed. Then it shows Mickey comforting Anne when she’s sad.
“We’ll get your friends back. I promise.”
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
Find a way to start again, brush off the dirt and make some friends!
It’s no big deal, yeah no big deal!
I feel at home in a place that shouldn’t be real.
Crazy strange but it’s no big deal.
Anne is driving a food truck with Sprig. The front door open when it shows Dipper and Mabel with his new journal. Mr. and Mrs. Boonchuy pulled out their tools. Anne was startled by a female paleontologist at the museum. Polly made a video chat with two girls from the workshop. Sasha steps on a journal and looked through it back at Wartwoods. King Andrias had a conversation with Maleficent who stood next to Marcy in a glass tube. Anne unleash her power and made blast when we see the city view. Anne give Sprig, Polly, and Hop Pop a hug. Marcy was having a nightmare when a dragon with yellow eyes rising from the depths behind her.
Killer birds but it’s no big deal.
Riding snails but it’s no big deal.
Eating flies but it’s no big deal.
Finally me and it’s no big deal.
Sprig, Polly, and Hop Pop are exhausted while they were wearing their disguises until they spotted a regular heron. Both Anne and her new friend kick the doors open together and we see government agents and FBI. Hop Pop was driving a golf cart with Perry and Doofenshmirtz when chased by a T. Rex. Sasha raised her sword to defend Wartwoods. Anne was caught by the sea witches tentacles. Sprig set an actual frog down gently. Bessie the snail licked Pumbaa snout while Timon stares at the snail tearfully. Marcy, Olivia, and Yunan are about to be transported. Mickey summons his keyblade for battle. Anne and her family looked at the sky where the frog robot blows up. Anne is sleeping with her mom on their way home.
Disney’s Amphibia: Calamity War
Then it shows a hooded figure with her owl palisman surprising Anne, the Plantars, and her cartoon friends.
“Gwarsh, who are you?”
The hood was removed and it was revealed to be a girl. Anne remembers that she has met the girl from her last encounter.
“My name is Luz Noceda, and I need your help.”
“With whom?”
Then it shows the emperor unlocks the door to another world and put on his golden mask.
“Knock knock, human.”
Coming Soon on October 2nd.

Jojos Doing Jojo Things (with each other)✨😌
Tumblr media
*sweating as the part 5 hc asks start piling up in my inbox*
 *looks at the one that mentions Jonathan*
Hello~~ I’m sorry for being criminally inactive here, I forgot during that long 6 month lockdown that I actually had a real life outside of the internet and now I have to go do real life things?? Instead of doing nothing but writing?? Crimes, I tell you.
I love the idea of Jonathan interacting with all the other jojos so I thought I’d take a little break from part 5 whump headcanons to fulfill this one :D SO HERE’S SOME SELF-INDULGENT HEADCANONS ABOUT JONATHAN DOING FUN LITTLE ACTIVITIES WITH THE OTHER JOJOS BECAUSE I KNOW WE ALL NEED IT RIGHT NOW😭😭😭
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇
Joseph (lets say Youngseph in this case because shhh)
-Hear me out but KNITTING
-Let this man do some nice calm things please
-Joseph has absolutely no way to connect with Jonathan. Like. Nothing.
-He doesn’t see the two of them as anything alike even though they both have the star, and when it comes to connecting with such a righteous, nice dude he’s a bit :/ about it
-He also doesn’t want to do anything stupid (In his words.) He hates baking, he’s never been into reading and school, and the two can never really click with sports
-Our man Jonathan has searched his heart and soul for something to bring the two of them together but Joseph is always just not into it >:(
-He’s almost given up on connecting at all BUT—
-One thing they do have in common? Erina.
-BOOM. Johnny-boy suddenly has ideas >:)
-Joseph is really put off when Jonathan shows up with a ball of yarn and needles and in the most innocent way possible he’s like “I have something to show you ^-^”
-the first thing Joseph thinks is NO FUCKING WAY. If Caesar or his mother or anyone caught him fucking knitting he’d never be able to live it down
-So instead he just watches as Jonathan sits by the fire, and it looks really boring at first but he just starts going at it
-And of course the gears start turning and all his brain sees is “fast task?? task I can be good at? something quick my hands can do??”
-And Jonathan looks up to take a break to see Joseph perched on the edge of the chair in complete awe, but the moment he asks if he wants to know how to do it, Joseph gets really withdrawn :/
The rest of their conversation goes a little like this:
“Isn’t that meant for girls?”
“Why would hats and scarves be only for girls?”
“But its—”
“You know...I’m making Erina a matching hat and scarf for her birthday. I could use a little help with the scarf…”
“...”
“We can make it a race.”
And with a fire lighting in his eyes, Joseph accepts the contest even though he has no idea what he’s doing. But isn’t that what he does best?
-Needless to say, he becomes obsessed.
-When his greatest fear comes true and Caesar finds out, he’s too obsessed to care about the teasing
-Joseph is good at something that Caesar isn’t. Caesar is jealous. Caesar picks up knitting.
-Are knitting contests even a thing?? I don’t care because Joseph and Caesar could probably open a fucking etsy shop with all the stuff they make (and absolutely shamelessly at that)
-Anytime they meet someone new it's immediately “which hat is better?” “Joseph’s is worse, right?” “Can you start the stopwatch for us?”
-Even in his older years, he never actually stopped making things for Holy, Suzi, and even sometimes Jotaro (thought Joot wouldn’t be caught dead wearing any of it in public)
-He actually progresses past knitting and making clothes in general becomes a secret passion of his
-The hat he’s wearing in part 4? He definitely made that. And don’t even think he doesn’t send Josuke the tackiest shit in the mail
Jonathan is very proud :)
Jotaro
-Animals. Is that even a question?
-Jonathan was always more of a dog or cat person, but the moment he finds out that Jotaro’s interested in marine life? MAN GOES ALL OUT
-He not only researches the shit out of marine biology just so he can hold up a conversation with him, but he also buys A SHIT TON OF BOOKS for his favourite angst man
-We all know that Jotaro isn’t exactly a man of words, but his heart is touched when they exchange a few sentences and Jonathan shows up the next day with a book all about what they were talking about🥺
-Like—Jonathan was always scolded for never listening to his father, but when it comes to stuff like this, Jotaro swears he’s able to read his mind
-Most people can barely get him to utter a sentence, but when these two are alone they’ll talk for hours about the ocean
-Holy was actually pretty worried for a while that Jotaro rarely ever opened up to anyone, but after seeing the two of them talk it was like a weight lifted off her shoulders :)
-They go on trips all the time to study water life. First, it's just to the river a few minutes away. Then they start going out to the lake nearby, and then they’re suddenly borrowing Joseph’s private boat and going on all these “research trips” together
-Which just consist of Jotaro taking hundreds of pictures and surprisingly never shutting up about what he sees (which is definitely a first)
-They pass by snooty, rich fishermen all the time who make fun of them for only looking at the animals, and Jonathan secretly uses Hamon to attract the fish to anywhere but where the fishers are lol
-I can blame snipster on instagram for introducing me to Smiletaro but the pure happiness and smiles of happy Joot on this boat with Jonathan is like a DRUG
-Star Platinum is absolutely thrilled, and when Jonathan realizes that Star is an amazing artist, he actually buys the stand a cute little purple notebook to draw all the ocean life they come across :3
-The moment they get back to shore Jotaro’s all -_- again around people, but you can still see the excitement in his eyes if you look hard enough
-When he gets into school for marine biology, Jonathan is so fucking proud
-This is an au which means anything can happen so I formally declare that Jonathan definitely got Jotaro those golden dolphin-shaped coat pins when the man first goes off to Uni
-He wears them as a good luck charm :3
Josuke
-Josuke is soooo easy to get along with, especially since both of them are such warm people :)
-Jonathan figures that it wouldn’t be hard to find something fun to do together, but when he actually thinks about it...he really knows nothing about what Josuke likes to do
-He ends up just asking the kid next time they see each other, and they end up just agreeing to teach each other one thing the other doesn’t know
-Because the power of KNOWLEDGE BABYYY
-Josuke shows up the next day with an entire fucking Nintendo 64 and is absolutely set on teaching him how to play something
-Erina just kinda watches like 👁👄👁 as Josuke plugs it in and Jonathan is confused but also SUPER EXCITED because he barely even knows what a video is but there are also video games??
-After much internal debate, Josuke decides on Ocarina of Time because he’s worried Jonathan will have a fucking heart attack if they play something like Mario Kart
-Also he thinks Jojo would enjoy the whole “righteous hero coming of age” archetype thing because,,,you know,,,
-They start it up and immediately Jonathan is like WHAT and has no idea how to play and dies in ways that Josuke didn’t even know were possible, but they somehow make it to the first temple with a lot of help from Josuke
-Right before the boss fight, his mom pulls up like “bitch we gotta go come on” so Josuke sees no harm in leaving the system at Jonathan’s and coming back next week
-Oho,,,ohohooo,,,
-He comes back a week later to a dark house,,,Erina’s off on some trip, and he can hear the faintest “HYAH!” coming from the living room
-He walks in to find Jonathan in the exact same spot he left him, ALL OTHER SAVE FILES ARE COMPLETE, and he’s in some obscure location doing a side quest Josuke didn’t even know existed
-Turns out he’s really good at quest games
-After Josuke realizes that Jonathan’s managed to beat the game more than once, he asks if he wants to try out another game
-To which Jonathan replies: “There’s MORE?”
.
-Aside from giving Jonathan a crippling video game addiction, Josuke also learns a vital thing about Jonathan Joestar
-Hamon ^-^
-Josuke’s a little surprised that Jonathan can even see his stand, and Jonathan has no other way to explain it than that it must be connected to his Hamon somehow
-To which Josuke is like “what” and Jonathan realizes that his stupid fucking grandson decided not to tell ANY OTHER Joestar about Hamon
-He’s no Zeppeli, but he could try and teach him...even if it didn’t work, it would still be a nice bonding activity
-When Jonathan finds out that Josuke’s stand ability is revolved around healing, he’s overjoyed because he might have a better chance
-They start small with breathing exercises and meditation, which eventually lead to Jonathan trying to teach Josuke how to make things like flowers
-Since it doesn’t exactly come naturally to Josuke, things don’t exactly work out,,,but both are unsurprisingly happy when Josuke manages to make a single flower bloom :3
-It’s not much, but it’s there and it honestly makes Josuke feel much better knowing that he could eventually learn how to heal himself, too :)
Giorno
-Jonathan considered teaching Giorno Hamon a while ago, but he realized that his stand already has the properties of Hamon, if not just in a more humanoid form
-And when Jojo puts two and two together that he and his son can both grow a lot of plant life, he has the perfect idea
-Garden buddies!!!! :D
-They grow everything you could possibly think of, and to top it all off, Giorno fills the garden with all this animal life :)
-When it comes to biology, Giorno never shuts up about it. He’s the quietest kid when it comes to virtually anything else but prepare for MAJOR info dumps about frogs and his vast knowledge of flowers
-Speaking of flowers, them just sitting and growing them together and talking about all of their favourites? Yes please
-Although they love to accelerate plant growth, there’s one patch in the middle of the garden that they’re determined to grow naturally
-Also them growing and eating carambola (star fruit) together because it’s my pocket dimension that makes no sense and I get to decide what fun fruits the Joestars get to eat together
-the garden becomes a great place for picnics and outings and the best place to go when things get too chaotic
-Giorno starts a plant journal where he records everything that ends up growing there, and Jonathan starts impulse buying all these flower guide books so they can look at pictures of them and put their favourites in the garden :3
-They end up creating a little pond in the middle of everything, and Giorno puts a whole bunch of frogs and fish in it and it's all very tranquil and calm and nice :))
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇
I was gonna do part 6 (maybe part 7 too?) but mental energy? I don’t know her, sorry y’all :(
Feel free to add on though!! I wanna see what y’all would think Jonathan would wanna do with Jolyne or anyone else I missed :D My first thought for Jolyne was Rugby because Jonathan was a rugby KING and I feel like she’d be really good at it lmao

What if there was a Walt Disney Fighting Game? [Video Game Concept]
Note: I am well aware, that Disney would probably never say yes in a million years to this idea. Taking their beloved, child friendly characters and having them fight?!
OH THE HORROR?!
I am also aware there have been concepts for this in the past.
Final Fantasy Dissidia was supposed to be a Kingdom Hearts fighting game, but Nomura felt uncomfortable portraying Disney characters in such a violent atmosphere.
And there are sketches of what a Walt Disney fighting game could've been, inspired by Super Smash Bros, before it was canceled. It would've focused on more violent characters such as Gaston, Beast, Ursula, Captain Hook, Captain Silver and the Horned King. But the idea was dropped.
Here's the link.
This entire post is just building and putting together what a Disney fighting game would look like to me, if one came out in today's world. It's all merely speculation and ideas that's been in the back of my head for awhile.
(Special thanks to @mayflower-gal for helping me set this up. 😁)
Anyways, let's get started!
Part 1: The Plot
For the plot, I believe it would have to be something simple, since this an idea for a first game. It's the start of a potentially huge franchise, so I wanna keep it not only simple, but an aspect that helps kick off the potential series. And pull in many fans, old and new of Disney.
Let's take into account one thing: what's a recurring theme across various Disney movies (and overall media)?
Is it the lovable, comic relief sidekick that makes audiences laugh? Is it the songs that kids find themselves singing, long after the tale is done and the curtain has closed? Is it perhaps, the clever celebrity choices for important side characters?
No, It's the one defining aspect that draws in audiences, both new and old, bringing you to fall in love with the characters as the story is told:
Wishes.
Pinocchio wishes to be a real boy. Beast and all his servants wish to be human again. Tiana wishes to have her own restaurant. Ariel wishes to see the world beyond the sea.
Everyone wishes for something more in their life and have dreams that they wish come true.
What if all those wishes were counted? Collected?
Watched over. Much like a parent to their children. Or a teacher to their students.
Found engaging. Found entertaining. Found comforting. Found peaceful. Found introspective.
Looked at with childlike wonder and glee when accomplished.
But frowned on when those wish for selfish desires. And an even deeper disappointment at those very same inhuman desires, coming true.
Good and bad exists inside every person, it's just a matter of what one chooses to act on and stand by at the end of the day.
What someone wishes for is reflective of that.
Now imagine that same being coming to life and wrecking havoc across the Disney universe. Judging for themself, if any of these colorful, imaginative characters, truly deserve their...
Happily,
Ever
After.
Yep, the main plot of the story mode is all the various Disney characters literally fighting for wishes and dreams to come true...
against the LITERAL embodiment of wishing upon a star.
Each playable character having their own unique ending.
Some endings being repeats of your favorite Disney movies, with some minor changes to acknowledge the game's plot. While others are original due to the wide cast of characters that are available, besides your favorite Disney Heroes.
For example, you beat the story mode as say, Pinocchio, he wishes to be a real boy.
I know it sounds very redundant since a majority of these things already happen in the Disney movies, but I feel as though relieving them would be fun. In addition to some original ones that didn't happen with either the villains or less major characters.
It's only the hypothetical first game and I wanted start with something simple, that fans could easily get into. More complex plots, with more character interactions should be saved for any possible sequels.
Part 2: The Gameplay
The game would be your typical 2D fighting game. You have,
Combos exclusive to every character that requires practice.
Playstyles that make each character feel unique.
Special moves for each character to get the upper hand and the main focus in besting your opponent in 1 VS 1 matches.
Of course, there's dialogue before fights in the character intros. With so many to pick from, it had to be put in somewhere.
It resembles 2D fighting games that you've all no doubt heard of, such as Marvel VS Capcom or Street Fighter.
But what would a Disney fighting game have to offer on the table, in order to survive the overall video game market?
It would have to be something unique and a feature that not only gives it originality, but a chance to stand out with so much creativity and innovation. Practically begging fans for more.
Which is why I present to you: Disney Songs.
Or as this game prompt will call them: Musical Finales.
The highlight of many Disney movies and overall media, the music is what leaves a lasting impression on many audiences. Which is not surprising, since Disney is mostly a musical. At least in terms of most of their films.
With so many iconic songs from throughout the company's history, of course I'll be squeezing them somehow!
Each character has a music meter, that can only be filled up with how the player times and follows the beat of the character they play as. Follow the rhythm and beat of a character, and it will fill up quicker. Get cut off by the opponent and it doesn't fill up.
That beat being the music of the stage each player fights on, by attacking to the music and the same time. Think of it like the Sound Battles mechanic in Mother 3.
Every character has four different kinds of attacks: Neutral, Musical, Wonderful and Special.
Neutral Attacks are normal attacks that are mostly used to set up combos.
Musical Attacks are attacks that deal more impact, when timed with the music of the stage.
Wonderful Attacks can be seen as character oriented attacks, that embody the personality and charm of the character you play as. And can be used to entertain the audience. We'll get into that later.
Special Attacks are unique finisher moves that require a separate meter to be filled up, as with most fighting games.
Now what happens when the music meter is full? A Disney Song starts playing of course!
Say you filled up Cinderella's music meter for example, then "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" starts playing, granting some unique abilities for Cinderella.
Each song would grant different outcomes and bonuses for the various characters. They're not Special Attacks, as that's already a separate mechanic already.
For example, "Part of Your World" starts playing if you're playing as Ariel, filling up the stage with water and slowing down the opponent, giving Ariel a chance to either take advantage of that, bump items into them or create big waves of water.
But what happens if BOTH characters trigger the music meter at the same time?!
Well, that's where this gimmick becomes a fight for which song keeps on playing!
Both songs would start playing, both at the same time and volume. Except, both characters have to compete to see which is stronger.
This is done by the two characters fighting, before triggering a rhythm game between the two. Once one is the victor, the other song fades, while the other stays playing. Doubling the duration of that character's Musical Finale.
Another mechanic is the Entertainment Meter. Every level you fight on has one, that determines which fighter the audience likes more. Via Wonderful attacks, you can charm the audience into supporting you more. This activates things like getting healing items or stat boosts in power and speed. Some of your favorite Disney sidekicks even provide aid from the audience!
It's almost like watching a Disney movie live and being able to interact with the story!
Or the battle system in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
I feel as though this is the best way of keeping the game interesting, giving it an identity of its own and still embodying that magic people will grow to love. It can also lead to some entertaining interactions in the background or foreground of a stage, as the music meter also brings in characters that would not be playable, but support playable characters nonetheless. Like Flounder and Sebastian.
Of course, either feature could be turned off if you're not a fan of that sort of thing, but that's a given.
Part 3: The Stages

Part 4: The Roster
The bread and butter of many fighting games, the roster is no doubt one I had a bit of trouble putting together. With so many characters from over the years, it's no surprise. But since this is the outline of a possible first game, here's my interpretation.
Also, the cast is big to avoid being too barren or dull.
And because I had a lot of fun putting it all together.
Mickey Mouse (Mickey Mouse): The all around character of the game, he mostly fights by a series of cartoonish tricks, magic tricks and his paintbrush from Epic Mickey. His Special Attack would have him break the fourth wall like and rewind the fight like an old film projector in reverse. Except he heals, while the opponent receives twice the damage. His Musical Finale "Sorcerer's Apprentice" has him use Yensid's Sorcerer hat to its fullest and give his overall moveset more flashes to distract the opponent and slow them down.
Donald Duck (Donald Duck): Everyone's favorite, greedy mallard and the world's angriest duck. Donald would fight mainly with toon force, his fists, his bad luck and his anger. The more damage he takes, the angrier he gets. His Special Attack would have him don the Duck Avenger persona from his PK days and use a series of superhero gadgets to finish the opponent. His Musical Finale "The Three Caballeros" trades his anger for Jose Carioca and Panchito Pistoles showing up, making him happy. As they hurt the opponent, each time they hit Donald, to keep him happy.
Goofy (Goofy): Everyone's favorite Disney dad, Goofy joins the fight as not the brightest but with the biggest heart. He has toon force to aid him in some unconventional ways. His Special Attack would have him become Super Goof from his older days. His Musical Finale "Eye To Eye" would restore health everytime he dodges an attack, with a dancing flair to it.
Snow White (Snow White and the Seven Dwarves): The first Disney Princess, Snow White makes her debut and she's not alone. The Seven Dwarves direct most of her attacks, such as tossing rocks, mining tools as weapons and even just grabbing the opponent and tossing them. Snow White herself can sing and command woodland animals to tie up opponents or just fight to defend her. Her Special Attack would have the Dwarves try to roll a boulder, only for lightning to strike on the opponent and the boulder as extra damage. Her Musical Finale "Whistle While You Work" will call on a huge number of forest animals, as they tidy up the stage and Snow White, slowly replenishing her health and slowing down the opponent.
Pinocchio (Pinocchio): Don't lie in his presence, as that nose is not only for show. Pinocchio fights mostly by using his nose as a staff, the Blue Fairy bringing other toys to life to aid him and Jiminy Cricket distracting the opponent with music. Pinocchio's Special Attack would have him wish upon a star and turn himself into a real boy, as the opponent is turned into a puppet and loses damage as a result. Pinocchio's Musical Finale "I've Got No Strings" would cover the stage in thin lines used for puppets: if the opponent touches one, their frozen briefly. If a projectile attack hits, the same happens.
Cinderella (Cinderella): The bell of the ball and someone whom never gives up on kindness, Cinderella will use the dance moves she showed off at the ball for her moveset, having a dancing and musical feel to how she plays and flashy dances to win against the the opponent. With her Fairy Godmother using her magic to help her, such as flashes of light. Her Special Attack would have the clock strike midnight and she leaves behind her glass slipper: once the opponent touches it they get weighed down by a giant magic dress. Cinderella's Musical Finale "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" would have the Fairy Godmother cast a series of spells over the stage, as a new carriage pops up every time Cinderella pulls off a combo. The carriages run over the opponent and can even carry Cinderella to safety.
Peter Pan (Peter Pan): Leader of the Lost Boys and Captain Hook's second biggest pain in the butt, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell are here. Peter Pan has a pocket knife with him and Tinker Bell's pixie dust for aerial attacks. His Special Attack would have him toss a bunch of gold on the opponent, as the rest of the Lost Boys tackles them and beats them up for the treasures. His Musical Finale "You Can Fly" would create a trail of pixie dust behind him, that randomly causes the opponent to either jump too high or too low.
Captain Hook (Peter Pan): Keep all 'ticks' and 'tocks' away from this pirate! Captain Hook has a wide array of hooks to switch between, a flintlock pistol and his sword to win the battle. His Special Attack would have him run away from the Tick-Tock the Crocodile, as said crocodile attacks the opponent instead of Hook. His Musical Finale "A Pirate's Life/Elegant Captain Hook" would call his ship the Jolly Rodger onto the stage, as the pirates on the ship occasionally throw knives at the opponent and shoot at them, everytime Hook is caught in a combo and can't escape.
Aurora (Sleeping Beauty): Aurora, sleeping beauty herself, is doing anything but sleep and her guardians are making sure of that! Her attacks has the Good Fairies use their magic in numerous ways, such as moving objects, animating objects and even petrification. Her Special Attack has Prince Philip show up with the Sword of Truth and the Shield of Virtue, to deal heavy damage on the opponent. Her Musical Finale "Once Upon A Dream" boosts her stats everytime she's hit.
Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty): The Mistress of all Evil, Maleficent uses a wide array of magic powers from cursed, throny vines, to her iconic green fires, she's one tough fighter from a distance. Her Special Attack would have her turn into a dragon and breath fire down on the opponent. Her Musical Finale "Once Upon A Dream" would have her make the opponent more drowsy, each time they hit her, until falling asleep, unless they keep moving.
Robin Hood (Robin Hood): The sly fox of England and one talented theif, this fox focuses on disguises, archery, swordsmanship and woodsmanship to make his way. His Special Attack would have authorities show up to arrest him, as they rain down arrows on the opponent in the process. His Musical Finale "Running Through The Forest" would allow him to dodge all attacks, without needing to hit the controls or input buttons.
Basil of Baker Street (The Great Mouse Detective): World's greatest detective! At least in the mouse world that is. Basil would investigate the stage of the fight, much like a crime scene and even pick up clues that double as weapons, such as a propeller or a mouse trap. His Special Attack would have him investigate a crime scene that hurt the opponent, before pushing them aside as 'worthless' evidence. His Musical Finale "Let Me Be Good To You" would have him require no further evidence and counter each hit with a deduction on his opponent's crime and even stop them from performing combos. Doing damage in the process.
Professor Ratigan (The Great Mouse Detective): Never call him a rat. Ever. This crime boss of the miniature crime world be no stranger to fist fights and gleefully take a swing at your demise, whether it's his fists, cane or traps. If not him, then his minions are more than happy to drown some orphans! His Special Attack would have him call his pet cat, Felicia to devour the opponent. His Musical Finale "The World's Greatest Criminal Mind" would give him more durability to hits, more destruction to the stage and traps cover more range on the stage.
Ariel (The Little Mermaid): Princess of the Sea, everyone's favorite mermaid is ready to explore beyond the sea. Armed with her father's trident, some amazing swimming skills and various sea animals at her command, she's more than ready. Her Special Attack would have her conjure a giant wave, that also covers the opponent in sea creatures. Her Musical Finale "Part Of Your World" fills the stage with water and can have Ariel bump floating objects into the opponent.
Ursula (The Little Mermaid): The last sea witch you would want to cross paths with, Ursula has eels to do her biding, poisonous ink clouds and even thunderclouds. Her Special Attack would have her turn giant via King Triton's trident and use the added power to attack the opponent. Her Musical Finale "Poor Unfortunate Souls" has her disguise herself as the opponent and slowly regain health from all souls being eaten by her. As a bonus, if she's infront of a mirror that's on the stage, her reflection will be her true form.
Belle (Beauty and the Beast): My, quite an odd girl, reading books and getting on the field of battle?! Belle's entire moveset would revolve around books; not magic books, just books on the rest of the cast and fairytales overall. She would be able to switch between each of these books and use what she's learned from them. For Example, 'Romeo and Juliet' gives Belle immunity to stat changes and rose themed weapons that hurt the opponent, like throwing weapons. 'Aladdin' gives her a magic ring that can conjure up magic smoke, furniture on the foe and teleport her. 'Jack and the Beanstalk' plants vines that can raise her up or entangle the foe. There's more books at her disposal, but that's just the general idea. Her Special Attack has her father ride in on his invention, chopping up an entire forest until the opponent is covered and crushed by chopped up logs. Her Musical Finale "Tale As Old As Time" gives her the power to 'skip' a fairytale, turning each of her attacks into the endings from the books. For example, 'Aladdin' would trap the opponent in an oil lamp, leaving room for her to attack.
Beast (Beauty and the Beast): The poor and cruel prince, turned into a monster as evil as the one in his heart. Beast has his boost in strength from his beastly form and claws to defeat the opponent. The curse not only affected him: his servants are by his side. Lumiere can incinerate the opponent or plant fires on the ground, Cogsworth can distract them with timed clock sounds, Mrs. Potts can spill tea to slip up the opponent, Chip will knock over bookshelves and Wardrobe can block attacks. His Special Attack would turn the opponent into a piece of furniture, leaving them open for attacks: each opponent having a different transformation. His Musical Finale "Be Our Guest" would have every attack with one of his servants, also heal Beast in addition to hurting the opponent.
Gaston (Beauty and the Beast): Nooo oooone's slick as Gaston! Quick as Gaston! No one's neck is as incredibly thick as Gaston! He's especially good at combo breaking! Boy what a guy that Gaston! Gaston has his inconic blunderbass and his fists, along with a bow and quiver and a hunting knife to deal with an opponent, almost as if they were an animal he's hunting. His Special Attack would have an angry mob charge at the opponent and beat them up. His Musical Finale "Gaston" gives him a strength boost, everytime he pulls off a combo successfully.
Aladdin (Aladdin): Everyone's favorite street rat and theif, he's not alone on the field of battle as Abu and Genie are here to help him. Abu can cling to the opponent and hit them repeatedly, Magic Carpet can be used for aerial attacks, Aladdin has a sword that he 'borrowed' from a guard and Genie can shape-shift in a variety of ways to best the opponent. Aladdin's Special Attack would have Genie distract the opponent, as Aladdin steals something off them and uses it to beat them. Aladdin's Music Finale "Friend Like Me" would have Genie grant a wish, each time Aladdin gets a combo, such as a stat boosts and healing.
Jasmine (Aladdin): The sultan's own daughter that would rather be anything than a prize to be given away. She has learned self defense skills, her father's guards and her pet tiger Rajah in her moveset. Her Special Attack would have the guards arrest the opponent and toss them into prison, as they struggle to escape and take damage. Her Musical Finale "A Whole New World" has one the Seven Wonders of the world occasionally pop up in the background to hurt the opponent, as the fight goes on.
Jafar (Aladdin): The Sultan's Royal vizer of Agrabah and one whom believes he should rule Agrabah. Jafar has his magic staff to hypnotize and cast spells onto his foe. Occasionally tapping into the phenenomal, Cosmic power of his Genie form to do some real damage. And Iago is here as well... mostly to complain. His Special Attack would have him become an all powerful Genie and Iago wishing for ways to 'hurt' (not kill) the opponent. His Musical Finale "You're Only Second Rate" would boost all of his stats and attacks, except he can't KO the opponent until the Musical Finale is done.
Simba (The Lion King): King of the Pride Rock and son of Mufasa, the Lion King himself is more than prepared with his claws and iconic roar. His roar can even control the weather to strike lightning and cause windstorms. His Special Attack would have him call on the spirit of his father, Mufasa, as the two of them roar at the opponent. His Musical Finale "Circle Of Life" will have him remember, how we are all connected and draw on the life-force of nature, slowly healing him and giving his roars more range.
Scar (The Lion King): Mufasa's little brother and King after his timely demise, Scar has his claws and his hyenas to make short work of his foe as if their nothing more than a light snack. His Special Attack would toss the opponent of a cliff, into a Wildebeest stampede just like in the movie. As a bonus, he would say 'long live the king's son' if Simba is the opponent. His Musical Finale "Be Prepared" has him do damage without needing to attack the opponent and just walking into the opponent.
Pocahontas (Pocahontas): Daughter of Chief Powhatan, this Disney Princess has the skills necessary in order to survive and win. Her Special Attack would have her people come in to fight alongside her and best the opponent. Her Musical Finale "Colors Of The Wind" gives her attacks more launching power and each dodge she does generates winds that hurt the foe.
Governor John Ratcliffe (Pocahontas): The main villain of Pocahontas, this greedy scoundrel will do anything to claim what he believes is rightfully his. He has a sword and uses his position of power to call his men into the fray. His Special Attack would have his men charge like in the movie at the opponent. His Musical Finale "Mine, Mine, Mine" prevents the opponent from interrupting his attacks and tripping over any gold sticking out of the ground.
Quasimodo (The Hunchback Of Notre Dame): The hunchback of notre Dame himself and quite the sweetheart, he just wishes to see the outside world. His job as the ringer of the bells comes in handy to stun them, swing bells at them, his talented acrobatic skills and surprising strength. His Special Attack would have him reenact the Festival of Fools and have the opponent be caught up in all the chaos. His Musical Finale "Out There" turns all of his bell attacks, into soothing sounds, that heals him.
Esmeralda (The Hunchback Of Notre Dame): An outcasts, like many other outcasts of Notre Dame, she's picked up on a multitude of tricks to evade capture. Such as illusionary tricks to trick opponents and various circus acts from the Festival of Fools. Her Special Attack has Phoebus teleport out of a field of smoke and beat the opponent. Her Musical Finale "God Help The Outcasts" plants multiple pillars of light over the stage, that burn the opponent and heal Esmeralda.
Judge Claude Frollo (The Hunchback Of Notre Dame): Someone whom believes only he can purge the world of evil and that all he does is for the greater good.

His Musical Finale "You're Welcome" makes all damage to Maui, take longer to leave an impact.
And that's that. A LOT longer than I thought it would be. Now your probably thinking, what about all the other Disney media? It's an idea for the first game, so other characters (Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Scrooge McDuck, Goliath, Kim Possible, etc.) would appear in a potential sequel.
Or DLC, since every game these days has it.
Thanks so much for reading all this and taking the time to do! I would love to hear some thoughts and feedback! I had a blast making all this and would like to see if you're interested in hearing more video game ideas.

Happy
Alright my chickpeas, my little garbanzo beans (Wtf am I even saying) I am here to bring you the “Happy we-did-it Ending”. This one was really difficult for me to write because when it comes to good endings my mind just calls them fake. Which… I mean this is fiction so why can’t it be happy. Sorry if this sucks I tried my best. Please Read at your own risk! This is a triggering fic.
Love, Your Trash Monster
CW/TW: Past Abusive relationship, Anxiety, Depression, Panic Attack, past age difference relationship (Illegal)
Part1 Part2 Part3
Characters belong to @lumosinlove
Besides Luka, I made him up, don’t care for him tho
Leo's leg was bouncing uncontrollably, he and Sirius waited for Coach outside his office, He was grateful for Sirius like he felt indebted to him even though they only talked for maybe a half hour. He runs his hands through his hair for what feels like the millionth time.
“What if he doesn’t believe me?” He didn’t mean to say it out loud but when his captain turned and gave him a soft look, he realized he did. He looked down at his hands in his lap and picked at a bandaid. It was one of the Hello Kitty ones Logan bought on accident. “I mean I have no proof of any of this happening, What if Coach thinks I just dislike Luka for no reason and am trying to ruin his life or something like that… It wouldn’t be the first time an adult hasn’t believed me. I mean, there's that double standard that “Men don’t get sexually abused and if they do they don’t cry about it” it's why I never even told Finn and Lo until a few weeks ago. I didn’t want them to think less of me.” He smiles a little at the bandaid he was messing with and thinks about how lucky he is that his boys still love him. “I’m so lucky”
“I get it.” Sirius looked up just in time to see Arthur walking towards them. He smiles a little and stands with Leo next to him.
They follow Arthur into his office and sit down.
“So, is this about all the concerned people who have been telling me something is wrong with Leo?” His brushy red eyebrow lifts and he crosses his arms leaning back in his chair. “I was also told by a little Russian bird that there was an argument in the locker room between you and Luka. Leo whatever is going on it has a lot of people worried.” He leaned forward and set his hands on the arms of his big office chair. “Leo, you know I treat everyone of my players like my sons.”
Leo takes a shaky breath and clutches his hands together tightly in his lap. Gulping down the fearful frog in his throat he meets Coaches eyes. “ What I'm going to tell you is something I’ve only told to a few people. I don’t have any proof anymore, but I need you to believe me Coach.” He feels Sirius put a hand on his arm as a comforting I’m here motion. He told Arthur and Sirius everything, not leaving out any detail that he was comfortable enough to share. It was everything from the good, loving parts of the relationship that made him sick to his stomach now. To the horribly, hellish parts of the relationship that made him choke on his own tears. Leo didn’t think much of it back then (he was a little preoccupied trying not to break) but he remembered that most of Luka and his friend would film things with Leo because they thought it was funny to see him suffer or to save for later to use as blackmail on anyone in the videos.
“Wait, you said he filmed these things?” Arthur, who had turned white as a ghost and had a furious glint in his eye, started drumming his fingers. “Do you think he would have kept these videos throughout the two years you’ve been apart.?
“I know for a fact he's kept them” They both look at him with wide eyes and a silent invitation to explain. “He would ask me if I wanted to see them… or remake them” Talking about all this as making him feel like he was gonna puke. He had a foul taste in my mouth. Arthur put his head in his hands, he's devastated that he let such a fucking asshole interact with his team. That he let his youngest player suffer like that.
Sirius had stood abruptly from his chair and was pacing behind Leo’s chair with his hand interlocked on the back of his neck. He exhales deeply, seething with anger. How could he let this go on so long, he had picked up on Leos habits because Remus had pointed out how similar the two of them were at times. He feels like he failed as a Captain for not doing something sooner.
“Is there anything we can do, Coach? I mean, can we at least fire him?” He stopped pacing and ran a hand over his face, taking a deep breath as he looked at the young kid next to him. How was he so good at hiding his pain? People would say that Sirius was good at that too but everyone on the team has seen him crack and spiral. Leo was always this calm, collected, cool support. He acted so mature for being so young and it was all clicking in his head. Everything about this 19 year old goalie was formed from the love and support of his family, but also the hate and abuse from a lover. He has experienced more than most people on the same team as him that are older than him.
“We can fire him, and if we do call the police, they can seize his electronics. If he really does still have those videos they could lock him up for CP because you were underage at the time. Nothing is guaranteed though.” He's deep in though, sometime during the processing of everything Leo had told them he had grabbed his laptop and was furiously typing an email to the Lead of the Organization. He hit send and looked up to the two hockey players. “I’m going to talk to Mr. Godic and Luka together. I already had a meeting with Mr. Godric today about next year's fundraisers but this is a more important topic.” he stands up and looks at Leo “Thank you for telling me Nut. That was very brave of you” He smiles weakly and Ruffles Leo’s hair. “If you ever need anything just let me know, okay?” He nods towards Sirius and walks out the door to his meeting.
“We should get you home, your boys are waiting.” He smiles softly as Leo stands and is taken by surprise when Leo pulls him into a tight hug mumbling “thank you” into his shoulder.
Leo was so happy, he felt lighter than he has in the last two years. He gets squeezed by the man he wrapped himself around and laughs wetly. When they pull away they both wipe their eyes and smile at each other. This was a new chapter to both their lives.
Sirius dropped Leo off at home after a stop at a drive through for an ice cream cone (that he may or may not have dropped on Sirius’ floor and got an annoyed glare) he walked in the front door and was talked into a pile of limbs and smothering kisses. He laughed freely and kissed both his boys sweetly and conveyed so much love.
As the Cubs made dinner together and sang to a random playlist. Logan burned half the food and Finn dropped a third of it. Good thing Leo tripled the recipe so they had enough to eat for the night. Putting on a mind numbing cooking show they just waxed poetically about how much they love each other. Around 7:30 pm Leo's phone started vibrating and a picture of Arthur sleeping on the bus with Talker doing a thumbs up flashes on his screen.
“What happened?” He is very anxious about everything that could go wrong, all of that melted away when Arthur shared the news.
“He's been taken down to the station and his phone has been seized. He was angry when confronted and actually tried to take a swing at me before security was called. If this ends up going to court would you be able to, you know, stand trial. I mean telling your coach is one thing but a room of strangers is different. Especially because the media will be all over this case.”
Leo had to think about this, if he didn’t go and testify this case would only air on the local news. Then again, he could change people's lives. He could be a role model for people who are too afraid to tell about their experiences. That's worth more than anything. He may be shamed online but it doesn’t matter. He Needed to do this.
“Yeah, this is something I need to do.”
