#where they're both screaming but neither of them are actually that mad

[manofmanymons]

I really like the idea of Miu and Kaito playing a lot of the same games and watching a lot of the same shows but NEVER having the same favorite character

They watch TV together and then get in a ten minute argument over a character like "HE SUCKS" "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HIM" "THERE'S NOTHING TO UNDERSTAND, HE'S THE WORST" "YOU'RE THE WORST"

#more of them having arguments over stupid things please #where they're both screaming but neither of them are actually that mad #shhhh they're bonding #miu the kinda girl to get attached to war criminals kaito the kinda guy whose fav is just the cute one #if the characters are siblings miu always likes the younger one better and kaito always likes the older one better ksjsndn #digimon survive #kaito shinonome #miu shinonome

can i know your thoughts on the “typical” nightwing ships (him with wally, roy, slade, kory, babs, apollo/midnighter, etc etc)?

ofc! <333

As a multishipper I literally love almost all of these

Wally

The softest ship ever! Reading about them is so cute. All cuddles and snuggles, and full on comfort.

It's the best friends to lovers trope

Haven't read about them in a really long while but they used to be my comfort ship. Like these two are so soft each other that they just make me feel warm inside.

Roy

Roydick is my spicy birdflash ship. Their chemistry was more heated with them constantly getting into arguements but falling together again. Going back to the comics I realize that Roy hero-worships Dick and that's why they get into so many fights. Roy literally thinks Dick is too perfect

There's this post about them which provides comic panels about Roy constantly comparing himself to Dick

But mostly Roy wants all of Dick. He wants Dick's 100% attention of them and he hates-HATES-that Dick gives everything to Batman. It drives him so mad because he thinks Batman doesn't deserve any of Dick's attention.

Literally tells Batman- you ain't shit. I feel bad Dick had to deal with you. He doesn't deserve it for all the greatness he is.

Roy wants all of Dick and that's where I ship them including their complicated issues. What makes their relationship so great is their problems. Neither of them will compromise (Dick won't let go of Bruce and Roy won't let go of that issue), but after all the screaming and fighting they still fall back together.

It's Dick that Roy goes to every time he has to deal with Cheshire.

>:> hehe

Ollie has the biggest grin on his face XD

Slade

My OTP LETS GO

Bruh I am so into them.

My post on why they were made for each other

YEA YEA YEAHHHHHH

Slade literally used the steam of Dick's shower to write a message in his bathroom mirror.

okay.

I am obsessed with Slade's obsession with Dick.

I love how in one comic Dick is literally just listing everything that's wrong with his life and Deathstroke is just standing there actively listening with his arms crossed.

He's never gonna give up that apprentice agenda.

Kory

Kory!! I LOVE DICKKORY SO MUCH!!!

When I think of love, they are the epitome of it. I didn't know it was possible to feel love through paper until I saw them. One look at the chemistry is overwhelming.

"Questions about what's right and what's not, I'll always have them. Questions about my loving you? No! I do. Very much."

Dickkory love is stronger than Dick's moral ethics and Dick's moral ethics?

I've never seen Dick love anyone as much as he did Kory. There are issues that came up ofcourse. I'm pretty sure there was an anti-alien sentiment among the general public (real life?) that affected them and on top of that the Batman office wanting Dick back so they just ripped him away from the titans and rewrote a whole new love story for them while trashing Kory for it but when the public's reaction and Dick's "he's so perfect everyone wants him so let's play around with love interests for him" aside, they were the king and queen of love.

What I love about their relationship is Dick loved Kori for who she was, not how she looked. And Kori loved Dick for who he was and not how he looked. On both sides, sometimes all people see of them are their beauty not their personality or strengths or being.

Barbara

Barbara. The reason I held off on writing this.

My feelings about Barbara are complicated.

She and Dick used to be my OTP. I loved them so much I actually hated Kori for a bit, thinking that Barbara was so much better-when I was solely in the fandom. But oh how the table have turned. Very recently the feather broke the camel's back so my feelings about the two of them have changed.

Long story short, they're better off friends. But my favorite moments come from mostly short haired Barbara comics.

This Barbara was AWESOME. She was so chill and cool and funny. She would be smart but not in a demeaning way to others.

Also Batgirl 2000 comic Dickbabs was so sweet (below)

Apollo/Midnighter

love them!

I think Midnighter would totally seduce Dick into a frenemies with benefits arrangement. I mean he's halfway there.

But aside from the usual flirting, Midnighter really, really, REALLY respects Dick's fight skills. I'm sure you've seen the panels of that already but since posts have a 30 image limit I'mma skip over that to the other reason: his greater-that-meta-human tenacity. Things and circumstances that take out metahumans, Dick surpasses through sheer will power and dedication.

So I mostly ship Dick/Midnighter but Apollo would probably join in too at some point.

Constantine

Never getting over how John-I don't do things I don't have to-Constantine saved someone because their body was hot and and their butt looked good. But later on in the comic he talks about how cool he was and what he describes Dick as is when asked about him is:

Additional exchange:

Tiger

His relationship with Tiger is AWESOME!!

It reminds me of his batman Dick relationship with Damian. Snarky and affectionate.

I ran out of image space :'0

But Dick basically gets Tiger-Spyral's number 1 and most loyal spy-to abandon the agency they work for, turn coat, and hunt them down to burn the oragnization into the ground instead. They're literally so funny. I loved Dick and Damian's cute banter and Tiger is just Damian aged up but meaner lol.

#idk if i forgot any #there's alot of people who love him or show an incredible amount of interest in him #dick grayson #nightwing #wally west #the flash #roy harper #arsenal #red arrow #slade wilson #deathstroke #koriandr #starfire #barbara gordon #oracle #batgirl #midnighter #john constantine #tiger #birdflash #roydick #sladick #sladin #dickkory #dickbabs #dicknighter #dickstantine #lol idk the ship name for dickxconstantine #dicktiger #thanks for the ask!

[lyramundana]

Hellooo how are you I hope you're doing great

Since you loved my 9th member shit I'll let you have more of it ( I actually have a lot in mind about this topic so I'll go slowly hihihi)

What do you think about yandere minsung with sub! Fem! 9th member reader during tour and concerts where they see everyone screaming whenever she does something sexy and they want to show everyone else that she is theirs only.

----🦋 anon----

Hello, butterfly! I'm doing well enough, thank you❤ I have a weakness for yandere minsung, but if you add 9th member to it, it becomes even sweeter.

Do you see how in every concert, stage or program they're doing these two are always standing side by side or, at the very least, close enough to touch each other? Constantly having some sort of interaction, like eye contact? Yeah, that's basically it.

We've already stablished they go mad whenever she shows herself off for the crowds and become enraged when she's flown by comments about how gorgeous she is and people adoring her. That's supposed to be their job and she should only put on shows for them, but since they're idols, they can't exactly stop her from doing it.

When 9th member gets asked to do something sexy, maybe take off her jacket to show off her curves more or dance a seductive version of one of their songs, they're both turned on by her display and furious at realizing other people are seeing it. Hearing the mad screams of joy from the crowd, the loud petitions for her to do more, even the pick-up lines from the bravest fans, it all makes them have to physically restrain themselves to not drag her away from the spotlight in front of everybody and cause a scandal.

Instead, they decide to mark their territory by disguising it as "fanservice".

Remember this?

Mind you, they were on stage receiving an award I think, being watched by millions of people, tvs focusing on them. Do you see they fucks they gave? Me neither.

They're bold as fuck. If they want to show the world how much they want each other, they'll do it. No one can stop them. They can excuse anything with "fanservice" and the fans will believe it.

They spent the remaining show glued to her side. Han hugs her from behind all the time, squeezing her waist with a cute smile that comes off as playful for the fans, but in reality, he's squeezing so hard he leaves prints of his fingers there. He touches all over pretending to be "play-fighting", but if someone looks close enough, they'll notice the certain roughness of his movements. How tight he grabs her, how he always go for all the exposed skin she displayed earlier, subtitly leaving small bruises there. How everytime he hugs her, he has an arm locked on her waist and the other wrapped around her neck, almost like he's caging her to prevent her from moving. She chuckles awkardly, worried fans might notice the intimate nature of it, but he doesn't relent.

Minho isn't any better. He pulls her closer by the waist and pretends to whisper something in her ear, while he's actually pulling up the collar of her outfit slightly to suck the skin there. When she tries to shy away, turns out she has Han right behind her, grabbing her by the shoulders and displaying a cute grin so the fans thinks it's all part of their antics. None of them realize how they're slowly inching closer and closer until their bodies are practically shielding her. They even push other members away softly when they try to interact with 9th member too, barely concealing the growing agitation.

They simply don't let her catch a break for the duration of the show. They keep leaving bruises and marks on her skin unnoticed, playing it off as a result of their playful "fanservice". When she asks them at some point in hushes whispers what the hell they're doing, she receives two pair of glares that are carefully hidden from the cameras and promise an entire night of punishment. She lets all of it happen, a small part of her enjoying it, but also feeling uncapable of resisting them. She's utterly under their control and they know, they know how compliant and obedient their sweet doll is. It's the people who have a problem, gawking their eyes at something they're not even worth looking at and foolishly thinking themselves deserving of begging for more of it, pushing her to break the rules.

The members know better than to intervene at this point. Luckily they can draw some of the attention to themselves and downplay anything as harmless fanservice. Minho doesn't relent his hold on her waist, brushing her cheeks with his nose and whispering dark promises in her reddening ears. Han has his arms wrapped around her shoulders from behind instead, tracing lines across her nape with his teasing lips, maybe biting from time to time.

All in front of everybody. Pretty much like in the picture. That level of closeness.

And obviously, the moment the guys are backstage to change clothes, she's being dragged to a secluded room to have that sinful outfit with which she pulled that whorish behaviour ripped off and makes sure she's unable to even move by the end of it, darkening the small bruises they left earlier and finally unleashing all the pent up energy they have been repressing since stage. They don't stop until she's mute and shaking in their arms, covered in their essence.

[noroi1000]

Hey can I request where y/n is a student and Megumi and Gojo both have a crush on her and are always fighting for her. Can you add scenarios like for example Megumi brings her flowers while Gojo notice that and also brings flowers but their more expensive. Another scenario would be that Gojo brought her expensive chocolate (because y/n is a sweet tooth like Gojo in this story) and Megumi found out about that and decided to make homemade desserts for her and it was like a variety of desserts. they get very competitive and didn’t realize that she actually has a crush on both of them but didn’t know how to express them since their always fighting. And I had this idea where Nobara and Yuuji are tired of seeing their classmate and teacher fight so they decided to just tell them by screaming who y/n likes and there was a confusion, y/n told Yuuji that she has a crush on Gojo while with Nobara she told her that she likes Megumi. They were all inside the classroom and y/n was the only one who wasn’t there and when she entered the classroom, she heard her classmates say that she has a crush on Megumi and Gojo. Embarrassed, she left the classroom to find a place to calm herself down. After a while Both Gojo and Megumi found her and had a talk since they’re confused on who she liked. After a while of her being silent she confessed to them saying that she likes both of them and can’t decide on one. Both of them were shock but after some thinking and talking they decided to share her and she becomes both their girlfriend.

Teacher or Classmate

warnings: age difference, age up characters (first-years are 18, Gojo is 28)

"So who do you like, huh?" the short haired girl asked you, sitting across from you.

You talked about everything and nothing at the same time. So she wasn't afraid to ask at that point. After all, she's doing it To make you happy and to end a very inconvenient argument between their teacher and their classmate.

They got fed up with it because there were screams sometimes, or they ignored each other. Or they were offended by the whole world and didn't speak to anyone but you. But never when someone was around.

Yuji and Nobara were fed up with the fact that sometimes when Gojo-sensei got mad at what Megumi said, they had harder training. And longer.

And so they went back to their rooms tired and all they thought about was going to sleep.

"Huh?" You blinked in surprise at her question. Since she asks you about your love affairs?

"Do you know who you fell in love with?" She asked with the same smile.

"Nobara–."

"Tell me if you prefer Gojo-sensei or Fushiguro." She smiled wider.

After all, saying it directly is easier than saying everything bluntly and then guessing what it could be about.

And yet it was never a secret that both of them were courting you.

Even if you are a student and Gojo is a teacher, they all didn't mind as long as you are happy with him. And how much you fell in love with him too.

It was easier with Fushiguro. You were of a similar age.

And Gojo-sensei, well... He was older...

And you might as well accept nice gifts from them so as not to hurt them.

After all, they both fell in love with you.

It would be mean and sad if you rejected them right away, breaking their heart.

Together with Itadori, Kugisaki thought for a moment about what if you don't like either of them and accept everything from them, hoping that they both will let go someday.

NO. It wasn't your style. This is what the short-haired girl saw. You would never want to hurt them. Apart from that, they're both stubborn and neither of them is going to give up anytime soon. It would become terribly uncomfortable for you if you kept their hearts on a leash all this time, hoping that one day they'd get tired of it and let it go.

If she were to imagine such a thing, she would see two dogs chewing on the leash just to get to you.

"Why are you asking that?" You muttered, turning your head slightly to the side. To at least try to hide the blush creeping up your cheeks like a thief in the night.

"Come on. Everyone knows they're very good to you. After all, they can't stop showing you their feelings!" She said.

Well, she was the one who wanted a boyfriend as soon as possible. But for now, she's stuck in school and has no time to flirt with the boys. She may have envied you a little that you have two of them trying to get you to notice them at the same time. But she certainly won't be envious of you who are striving for it. She certainly wouldn't be jealous of Fushiguro. And also about your teacher. She has a different ideal guy than both of them.

"Or are they just nice?" you asked quietly.

"Nope... Yesterday Sensei was drawing hearts while checking our tests. He drew hearts next to your score! And Fushiguro is smiling! It is suspicious!"

"Nobara–"

"Do not be shy. It's friendly chat. I won't tell anyone." She put her index finger to her lips. "It'll be a woman's secret."

You swallowed softly before deciding to speak.

"Do you like Fushiguro?" She asked.

You blushed and opened your mouth.

"I like Megumi..." I murmured as your face was red and hot. "Ha!" she moaned in satisfaction, and didn't let you say anything else you wanted.

But she quickly quieted down as she looked at you. After all, she bet that you fell in love with Fushiguro.

Itadori bet you fell in love with Gojo. She won. Now she'll tell him she's a winner and he's a loser.

Suddenly she got a text and left, apologizing to you and again saying she would keep it a secret.

You sat staring out the window, trying to keep the blush from your face.

Unfortunately, it failed.

It got even bigger when Itadori entered the classroom, asking you why Kugisaki was screaming and laughing.

"Something is wrong? Your face is red."

"Yuji-kun... Nobara was just asking who I like..." you whispered while hiding.

"Oh? Tell me please!" He gave you a nice smile. "I am your friend!"

"You are..." you confirmed. But you were worried about him telling Fushiguro or Gojo-sensei.

"You can tell me." He closed his eyes showing you a radiant smile. "Tell me... Do you like Gojo-sensei?"

You widened your eyes for a moment.

Nobara asked about Fushiguro, and now Itadori asks you about Sensei.

Maybe you can at least tell him the truth.

You nodded.

"I really like Gojo-sensei... And–"

You couldn't finish as he got up and walked to the door.

"Wait here. I'd like you to tell him. I'll go get him. I'll be right back!" He shouted as he was already in the corridor.

Just knowing that he could suddenly appear here made your pulse quicken.

You could tell him. But you don't want to hurt Megumi when you do. He may think that he tried all in vain...

After all, competing with someone like Gojo is a big challenge.

Appearance, including height, body shape, everything about it, you probably like. Down with you, he doesn't act like a brat around you. Chances are you'd prefer a caring and a little crazy older partner.

And he was adorable. That black unruly hair. The kindness hidden under a cold face.

Well, maybe he didn't have the same thing Gojo had.

They were almost opposites.

White hair - Black hair

Light eyes - dark eyes

Very tall - medium tall

Adult - teenager

Very rich - earning as much as he can as a student

Always cheerful and smiling - cold and dry, despite the fact that he cares about others

What they had in common was that they both cared for you and loved you.

It was harder for Megumi to keep up with the gifts you were getting from your teacher. After all, he gave you such very expensive gifts.

Fushiguro, on the other hand, tried to get nice and good gifts to avoid costs that he cannot bear. And also showed you very different gestures. Like spending time with him.

Which unfortunately also did Gojo.

You spent time with both of them.

As if they both have an equal chance.

For them, one must win and the other accept defeat.

But you can't make one suffer.

You ran out of class as fast as you could.

Just like when Sensei brought you the most delicious and expensive chocolate you've ever eaten. The next day he gave you a whole basket of chocolate sweets which was very expensive. And when Fushiguro came to you with a basket filled with cookies, homemade chocolates, candies, lollipops and other goodies, You thought you'd drown with the amount of saliva that filled your mouth.

It was all delicious. The expensive chocolates were pretty, even beautiful, and delicious.

But the homemade sweets your classmate made for you were the same. Well, maybe the heart or the ball were crooked in some places, but it was homemade. You can't complain because it was so delicious.

You wanted to repay them by making dinner for them. But when you wanted to suggest it to them in class, they were all there. And the first thing you heard was the question how did you like the sweets. Which you love so much.

Both were surprised when they said it at the same time.

But hey, competition is competition.

Then you ran away blushing.

It was the same now.

As you were walking down the hall, you saw someone walking, and you quickly hid so that no one would notice you.

You saw that it was Megumi holding a small bouquet of flowers in her hand. And Kugisaki was pulling him by the other wrist.

You went the other way. But there you saw Itadori pulling Gojo-sensei's sleeve behind him.

You saw a man holding a large bouquet of flowers in one hand.

Same as Megumi had. So your favourite...

Gojo saw Megumi returning to school with flowers that were your favorite. That's why he did the same. By ordering an even bigger bouquet that you would like more than maybe a few flowers.

Both were beautiful. Megumi was cute and kind. This Gojo's was beautiful and stunning.

It wasn't until they left that you decided to leave.

You followed them to make sure neither of them would try to do anything.

But you came too late.

As you stood outside the door, you felt the heat on your face.

"We know who (y/n) fell in love with!" Yuji and Nobara shouted simultaneously.

And they were both more than eager to hear who it was.

You opened the door slightly to see what it was on.

And at that time they both screamed.

Itadori shouted "Gojo-sensei!"

And Kugisaki "Fushiguro!"

All at the same time.

They looked at each other questioningly.

"Hold on, she told me that she fell in love with Gojo-sensei." Itadori said.

"And she told me that she fell in love with Fushiguro!" answered the girl.

"NO! She loves Gojo-sensei!"

"Not at all! She said she loves Fushiguro!"

"Gojo-sensei!"

"Fushiguro!"

When you looked at your potential boyfriends, they looked shocked and a little freaked out. After all, they didn't know what the truth was.

To find out the truth, they'd have to ask you.

You were focused on thinking about your embarrassment for not seeing Itadori walk to the door and open it..

He wanted to go out to get you.

You took a few steps back. You looked at the faces of Gojo and Fushiguro.

You blushed even more and suddenly started running down the hall.

You felt tears might start streaming down your face if you didn't calm down.

"(y/n)?" Megumi muttered looking at you.

"(y/n)!" Gojo shouted, throwing flowers on the floor as he started running after you.

And behind him is a dark-haired teenager. Even though he couldn't catch up with an adult who was almost two meters tall.

He was a bit ahead of him.

And when they both ran up to you, they saw you sitting on the floor in one of the rooms, with small tears running down your cheeks.

"(y/n)-chan..." Gojo crouched down to you, placing his hand on your red cheek.

"Sensei..." You mumbled.

Megumi knelt beside you, placing a hand on your shoulder.

"What happened?" He asked.

"They told you..." you groaned.

"I didn't understand anything they were saying..." said the white-haired one.

"I told them, and I didn't finish what I said... I don't want any of you to be hurt by what they said about me...

"One of us has to let go of our love for you... That's the point, isn't it? You don't want to hurt the one you don't love..."

"I don't want to hurt you..." You said, sobbing into Gojo's hand.

"If you don't love any of us, just say so. Don't keep us in suspense, sugar." the elder said.

"Nothing will happen. It will be as before." The teenager added.

"I don't know how to say it... I'm scared!"

"Do not be afraid. Whatever you say, we'll accept it." The white-haired man suddenly hugged you. "I promised to take care of you. So even if you don't want me or any of us, that doesn't change anything. I will still protect you."

"Sensei..."

"No matter what you say, (y/n), it won't change between us. We can still be friends. Just say what you feel."

"Megumi..."

"Just be honest and ignore what we might feel." They smiled at you.

You sat quietly, resting your head on the teacher's shoulder and the other on your friend's hand.

"I like you both..." you said softly with your eyes closed.

both? them both? They were thinking about it now.

They looked at you.

"I can't choose because I love you both..."

They both didn't know how to do it. They didn't want to give up on you.

Neither of them wanted to lose you.

Perhaps this is the best solution?

Let you love them both, and they will love you.

There was a quiet conversation between them about whether they both agree that you should share your love between the two of them.

You would be unhappy if you had to choose one of them.

And they want your happiness.

Therefore, the best solution for you is for them to let you love them while they love you.

You can't choose. And you won't have to.

"(y/n)-chan."

You looked at the white haired boy who suddenly brought your lips to his.

His lips opened yours and he connected your tongues.

"I love you sugar."

As he pulled you away, your face was caught gently by Megumi's fingers as he placed his lips on yours. Softer and less pinching than Gojo. But still so romantic.

You've been hugged and kissed by the people you love. And you didn't have to choose.

[givehimthemedicine]

I'm gonna say something that might make elmax tumblr mad at me but:

as much as El and Max are besties in the sense of the nonexclusive title, I can't honestly say I think they're mutual best friends in the sense of literal #1 ranking of emotional closeness.

Max becomes El's best friend within the same hour that they meaningfully interact, surpassing Mike by miles. no contest. but I think Max's best friend is still Lucas.

Max doesn't really share emotionally with El. she's a brand new friend and doesn't really have the, what do I want to say, life experience? to become Max's go-to confidant right away, which is a pretty major pillar of emotionally close friendship. El is so new to normal human relationships and regular life across the board. she would listen and care if Max confided in her, undoubtedly, but someone to whom you'd have to pause and explain and define aspects of what you just said honestly isn't going to be your #1 choice when you're upset and just want to vent and be understood. there's definitely no lack of emotional intelligence or anything like that from El, she's just not the easiest one to communicate with.

El actually COULD understand Max a lot better than Max might expect - and vice versa - but since neither of them really tells the other anything about themselves (at least not onscreen), they don't know just how much they can relate to each other yet.

what little sharing Max has done with El has been mostly in brief unintentional(?) inferences that El didn't engage with ("happy screams" being a troubling insight into her home life, etc). and I see extremely little evidence that El has ever told Max or anyone else much about the lab.

their friendship in s3 is more about being kids and having fun together (which is not something shallow! they both need that so badly) and they have more of a mentor-mentee relationship in some ways. just when their friendship could be getting deep, they get separated which is horribly unfortunate.

I don't mean to paint Max as the giver and El as the taker - they're different things to each other. Max drops everything and immediately offers advice, friendship, and warmth to a girl who's previously been rude to her for no reason, expecting no apology and asking nothing in return. but El spends season 3 body-shielding Max from monsters, is there to hold Max when Billy dies, and moves mountains unasked to find/protect/save Max in 4. she is very much there for Max emotionally, just verbal/written communication isn't her strong suit, and that's especially hard in a long distance friendship where that's the only way you can communicate.

Lucas, on the other hand. he has the distinction of being the first person to make her feel accepted in an unfamiliar town, her first true friend in Hawkins or possibly ever, and I don't think that's overwritten by one shopping spree.

Max really opened up quite soon to Lucas considering her trust issues in season 2 and he made it a very positive experience for her. not much of substance happened between them in 3 but in 4, their relationship seems to have its greatest emotional depth ever despite being broken up, and she voiced her literal deepest darkest secrets and suicidal ideations in front of him. (El heard it too, but Max didn't actually consent to that, although I imagine she would have). Henry used Lucas for a vision, knowing her fears would hurt the worst coming from Lucas's mouth. Lucas is the first person Max mentioned she had already looked for when she went to Dustin's house to talk about what she saw, and that was before their reconciliation.

but now here's something to offend lumax tumblr as well: I don't think Max has been Lucas's best friend at any point so far.

am I forgetting a time he's told her anything about himself? a time she's complimented him? I can't think of a topic he's discussed seriously with her that didn't pertain to Max herself, their relationship, or upside down stuff. his best friend is still within the party - Mike or Will I bet.

I could absolutely see Lucas finding Max daunting to open up to, even before her depression in 4. the way she treats him in 3 doesn't give me the sense there's a whole lot of sharing or validation going on for Lucas. I'm not saying she's a bad girlfriend to him, but I am saying she must make him feel a lot less emotionally cared for than he does her, unless he's extremely aware that they have very different ways of showing love. Max really is nice and definitely would listen and care if he shared seriously (and she has shown him that, just not often or recently), but she definitely has an exterior you have to get past first and I wonder how much he tries to do that.

I assume their friendship/relationship had to have had more depth than what we actually saw onscreen but I feel like Lucas lets his feelings be easily swept under the rug when it comes to Max vs the boys. the "the lady is never wrong" policy he learns from his father may keep the peace, but it isn't healthy for the long term. and this may be a subset of that, but I think Lucas prioritizes Max's hardships above his own (that's gonna be huge for him in 5 and beyond - he got traumatized by what happened to Max too, but he won't be inclined to seek validation of that especially not from her).

while they both absolutely care and empathize, Max and Lucas's backgrounds and struggles aren't ones that each other can personally relate to much. Max doesn't know what it's like to get bullied for being black and Lucas doesn't know what it's like to grow up in a poor, broken, abusive home.

but while their childhoods looked drastically different too, El and Max actually could relate to a lot about each others' pasts. El wouldn't know much about being a child of divorce, but can relate to having an abusive big brother, to wanting to escape, to major trust issues and craving love, to refusing to grow up to be what her abusers want her to be. Max doesn't know what it's like to grow up in a lab, but she can relate to being a little girl unsafe in her own home, to having a hard-learned no snitching policy, to living with a bad man she's supposed to call dad whose abuse causes her sibling to abuse her in turn, to refusing to repeat that cycle.

El and Max have potential to have an incredibly deeply understanding mutual best friendship, and I think they will once they get a chance to spend some time together, process what just happened in 4, and open up to each other about more.

simply aging and maturing will contribute to this as well but I think what Max has learned in 4 will make her more emotionally available with Lucas (disregarding that in reality she'd probably close off more than ever after 4 but it's the last season and we don't have time for that) in fact she was already starting to open up to him more just before she died. I hope they don't rush the relationship aspect of lumax because their friendship is sososo important and deserves its own attention tbh. I want to see some mutual emotional sharing between them where Lucas's trauma isn't sidelined.

also El and Lucas, the combination with I'd say the least in common, absolutely must do some massive bonding over Max. I want the two who were slowest to warm up to each other as kids to be absolutely ride or die. the brot3 potential is there I just need everyone to communicate!

tl;dr: Max is El's best friend but El isn't Max's best friend, and Lucas is Max's best friend but Max isn't Lucas's best friend

#lucas sinclair #max mayfield #eleven #lumax #elumax but in a brot3 way #I MUST KNOW what is the status of el and max's communications in s4 #in other news I think will/mike and robin/steve are the only mutual best friendships on the show #all I ever hear on here is that mike is brushed off and never talks about his needs #but can I ask when lucas ever gets to talk about himself #long post #character analysis

Once again I participate in the "get to know your mutuals" chain mail meme (I'm 100% this is not the correct term but my brain is really fried atm), this time I was tagged by @stripedroseandsketchpads :D I feel like I do this every two months at least so I'm kind of out of people to tag who haven't done it recently, and I've also been kind of dissociated from Tumblr due to work stress so I don't remember if I added anyone new recently :/ So whoever wants to do it, let's pretend I tagged you :D

Last song I listened to: Them Crooked Vultures - No One Loves Me & Neither Do I - I just discovered this band! Even though it's made up of really famous people from other more famous bands! And I really like it!

Currently watching: The Borgias. So far it's... okay? I'm enjoying the character beats but the actual plotty plot (i.e. the politics and wars) is so slowly paced and overly linear. They seem really scared of the audience not getting it so they only allow one plotty thing to be happening at any given time, and they make sure to spell everything out at least once per episode. Which is... not what I'm used to in my historical political drama (quite the opposite in fact!). Perhaps I could have benefited from this approach if it were a fantasy world or a country I don't have much to do with (I remember having to open up a map of Scotland so many times while reading the first Lymond because they kept going from one city to the other and I didn't know where they were in relation to each other), but it's set in my own country and half of the "as you know" recaps are just basic Italian geography for the anglophone audiences lol. After the fifth time one well-educated character explains to another well-educated character that Florence is in the north-west and Naples is south of Rome, I kind of want to scream. The pronounciations are also all over the place - three guys are sitting at a table looking each other in the eyes and pronouncing "Medici" 3 incorrect ways, at least they could have streamlined it between the actors. Like far be it from me to demand proper pronounciation with the way Italians butcher English words constantly, but at least make it consistent! Luke Pasqualino is the only one pronouncing anything as it should be pronounced, and I really felt bad for him in that scene where Lucrezia keeps asking him to say her name and they're both repeating it over and over, because he's the only one pronouncing it correctly while she's saying it as if she had a mouth full of rocks. Btw my favourite Holliday Grainger fucking up the Italian scene so far is when she needs to ride breathlessly up to the French king and say a long line about her brother Juan the Gonfaloniere and basically she's supposed to repeat "Gonfaloniere" several times and you can literally see her going "my brother is the gonfalonsajkdnajsdsbaj" and making a "fuck it, whatever" expression when she gets to the complicated part. Anyway I am enjoying the show, the pronounciations make me laugh they don't make me mad. And the costumes are gorgeous!

Sweet/spicy/savory: Savory or spicy, depending on the mood. I dislike sweet things.

Current Obsession: Nothing really, I've been really tangled up with RL things and am feeling vaguely anhedonic because I keep thinking about work, so it's hard to get into something haha. This is actually why I'm able to focus on the Borgias, because they have quite low bandwidth requirements (i tried to watch it before and found it slow-ish). This too shall pass I suppose :)

Kazuscara OTP tickle questions

So I saw the OTP tk ask game going around again, and I know this technically isn't how you're supposed to do it but I am. Brainrotting. About these two sO BADLY I HAD TO GET THIS OUT before I disappear back into the void lmao

✨️So here I go ehe✨️

---

1. Who has the cutest tickle laugh? Kazuha! His laugh and giggles are so airy and just the right amount of raspy uGH I wanna hear him laugh all day...

Wanderer's laugh is really cute too but man's screaming half of the time. Tho one thing that makes him almost cuter than Zuzu is that he starts hiccupping if you tickle him long enough~

2. Who is ticklish in unusual places and where would that be? I'm not saying that neck is an unusual spot, but I think Wanderer's made_in_Inazuma mark is ridiculously sensitive-- if Wanderer is acting bratty in public, Zuzu just uses his vision to make a gentle breeze brush against the spot and Wanderer stops whatever he's doing as if he slammed into a wall and turns to pout at the other sdfghfh But also when they're alone Kazuha LOVES peppering it with tiny kisses and Wanderer is in stitchessss hehe

3. Who gets cheer-up tickles? Wanderer 100% and it's so effective and he's sO GRUMPY ABOUT IT like my god he wants to be mad about it bc it doesn't fit his ✨️mean aesthetics✨️ but he can't help but just giggle and feel like his head is getting all fuzzy n happy when Zuzu scoops him up and gently tickles him all over until he's feeling better again

4. Who takes advantage of the other one getting their arms stuck while taking off their shirt? B o t h, but Wanderer definitely learned from Kazuha ahah. And they both wear so many layers that it's a weekly occurrence and at this point they're so used to both of them taking advantage of it that they just automatically start to panic a little when they realize they're stuck, so if the other hadn't noticed it on their own they sure would now sdfghj

5. How did they discover each other’s ticklishness? Wanderer was probably breaking records being annoying and buzzing around Kazu's head, provoking him in one way or another and he just got fed up and grabbed his ankle to pull him down, but to both of their surprise Wanderer fell out of the air on his very own accord (accompanied with an adorably uncharacteristic squeak, I might add) bc the feeling startled him so much lmao and Zuzu did NOT leave him be until he admitted he was ticklish (I think y'all can imagine how Kazuha coaxed that out of him~)

And afterwards Wanderer tried to tease it out of Kazuha too but he just straight up admitted with a chuckle that "ofc I'm ticklish" and Wanderer could Not wrap his head around how he wasn't even slightly embarrassed about it lmao

6. Who can’t take tickle bites? Kazuha oh my gosh, he melts in seconds. I also think that Wanderer's teeth are a bit sharper than normal so his nibbles are DEADLY. And he knows that.

7. Who has to be tickle-forced out of bed in the morning? Hmm, neither has trouble in the morning, but I think Wanderer has to be tickled INTO bed sometimes. Sure, he technically doesn't need sleep but Zuzu wants to cuddle at night and if Wanderer's being difficult about it (which he usually isn't bc Kazuha's cuddles are god tier) he just gets dragged to bed, locked into a hug and tickled until he gets tired enough to actually fall asleep himself too hehe

8. Who gives up in a tickle fight? Wanderer, the feeling still catches him off guard quite a bit, especially when it goes on for a while since tickling has been introduced to him quite recently, so if you manage to pin him down he's done~

But once he gets a bit more used to it he'll be a dangerous opponent for sure///

9. Who is in danger of getting hurt when attacking the other? Kazu, Wanderer f l a i l s. Not a single limb is left unused in his attempts of breaking free if you tickle him hard enough He'll still pout if you stop too soon tho

10. Who always provokes the other into tickling them and how? Wanderer~ His brattiness goes up a notch and he seems to find something to playfully bicker about over everything, and it all is accompanied with a faint blush (that he will deny to the end of time) and an occasional glance at Zuzu's hands. So subtle~

But Kazuha also somehow manages to provoke him into GETTING tickled from time to time. Don't ask him how, Wanderer has no goddamn idea but it just. Keeps. Happening.

#when I say my every waking moment is consumed by these two rn......... #I've been planning on doing art about them as well but work has been Brutal sobs #also kdfhsj if anyone WANTS to send me other genshin pairings for this go for it hahah I'd love to share more headcanons✨️ #genshin tickles #otp tk game #lee wanderer #ler wanderer #lee kazuha #ler kazuha

I request 5 headcanons for the Grandma Nana and Dad for One AU, if Inko found out that her husband is All for One. This scenario has haunted my dreams!

Oh! I've had this in mind for a while (and should actually write it sometime)

It happens when AFO and AM finally have an epic battle when Izuku is 9. AM is injured and AFO is defeated, but neither is as hurt as in canon. This means AM is awake and walking around in a few days (but not fit for Hero work).

Unfortunately the fight was televised and mask or no mask, Inko recognized her husband's voice. Mitsuki called to ask if Inko was ok and barely restrained herself from giving Inko the mother of all I-told-you-sos. The moment Inko hangs up, Mitsuki screams "I KNEW HE WAS TERRIBLE!" Inko heard.

Meanwhile at the hospital, Nana and Gran are visiting Toshi. Both try to put off talking to Inko, but then both get the text from Inko that she's already at the hospital and coming up. They ask Toshi to speak with her since he's the most charismatic and she's not mad at him. They promise they'll be behind him.

Cue a very angry Inko stepping off the elevator, her glare tempting Toshi to dive out a window. He looks back, where Nana and Gran smile and give him their thumb's up. This would be reassuring if they weren't thirty feet back and peeking out from behind two different corners.

AM barely survives Inko's epic scolding, and is now more scared of her than he ever was of Gran. He then visits AFO. This happens:

AFO: What is it Yagi? Here to gloat that you're alive while I'm trapped here unable to even move? AM: You still have some rights AFO. They're more than you deserve. AFO: Like what? AM: Well, most of the things you're not allowed to do are because of the threat you pose. But some rights don't threaten society, so even I wouldn't deprive you of them. Like say...spousal privilege? AFO: *pales* You...you can't do that... AM: *smiling* Don't worry, I've taken precautions so the authorities won't listen in. They won't even know she's your wife. AFO: This qualifies as torture! You can't do this to me! Even you must have limits! AM: Indeed. And what kind of monster would I be if I denied you the chance to speak to your loving wife. *door opens* Inko: HISASHI MIDORIYA! AFO: *terrified whimpers*

Tenko is disappointed Uncle Hisashi went to jail. After all, he was a pretty cool dad. Much better than the original. Hana is mildly surprised but happy to see that Nana was right all along. Too bad she can't "accidentally" kick his shins for extra dessert anymore. Izuku is sad his dad was evil, so he'll gladly let himself be consoled by spending loads of time with All Might!

⭐️ for Gasoline and Spin! (two of my favs)

Gasoline is something that I started writing for a different fandom, about a billion years ago, and for some reason it suddenly gave me Klaroline vibes. I love a good musicians AU, so there's also that, and the idea of exploring a very messy side of Caroline and that relationship was something that enjoyed a lot. They're both extremely screwed up in the head in that setting, but Klaus fakes it better, while Caroline soldiers on by being extremely focused and disciplined, but she didn't get the clean cut she wishes she did, and it shows how much that affects her. I was originally going to write it as a long multi-chap, had the whole thing planned out. It was a bit of an ensemble story, where other characters would get their own development and so on, but I totally lost my mojo and then posted it as a one shot only, because I really liked that first chapter and I felt it worked anyway. But then @definedareasofuncertainty (she's behind everything, always lol) asked me to write a sequel and I decided to give it to her a birthday gift (I'm such a lame friend tbh 🥲), and so I had to include smut, because she's always calling me names for my fade to blacks 🥲

I like the open ending tbh, the idea that they can face the fact neither of them is completely happy and they have all this resentment for each other, but that there is no easy fix because they simply want different things from life. I was very particular about how I thought Klaus would be the ~~~softer part in this finale, because that's what he's like when he's with Caroline. He understands her needs, allows her to rage and scream, and always leaves the ball in her court. She's the one who makes the important moves. And so in that moment, he's just giving her what she needs, which is a closure of sorts and a promise that, maybe, further down the road, they'll finally be on the same page. It's all about timing and how bittersweet and heartbreaking it can be.

As for Spin - honestly, I love Spin. 😂 If I had to rec one of my fics to people, Spin would probably be top 3. I draw a lot of inspiration from my obsession of the day, and this was when I was watching The Politician like a mad person. The whole high school lovers to rivals had me by the throat (even though on the show it's actually very sad and depressing, in spire of the general insanity).

Again, it's an opportunity to have Klaus be a major little shit while also being a sucker for Caroline. I just think this story has so many aspects of them that I love. The bickering, the rivalry, the bitterness. The occasional betrayal. Klaus looking at Caroline like the sun shines out of her eyes, believing in her when everyone else just sort of roll their eyes. The Steroline relationship that is phony and convenient but lacking in everything. Klaus being propelled into impulsive, erratic behavior because of his family. The two of them finding a measure of comfort and understanding in each other, which is the last thing they could've expected.

I don't know, man, I just love them in this. 😂 Maybe it's just me, but I feel like it's a very well-rounded fic that adapts their dynamic well into a high school AU. I wish I could write more fics like that tbh.

[ablatheringblatherskite]

So I thought what if I tried assigning dæmons to some Wednesday characters

(Dæmons are from His Dark Materials and are basically manifestations of a person's soul in animal form that are basically lifelong companions. They're usually the opposite gender of their humans (idk why but same sex dæmon/human pairs do exist, they're just rare), and you can't go too far from them (unless you're a witch) without either dying or severing from your dæmon (this CAN happen under very specific circumstances, like with the right technology for example), but it's DEFINITELY TRAUMATIC. And I need to highlight that THAT IT IS NOT OKAY TO TOUCH ANOTHER PERSON'S DÆMON WITHOUT CONSENT. Touching another person's dæmon is literally taboo. It's revolting, evil, and it's assault of the highest degree basically. The most common times this happens is during moments of heightened emotions, either in like battle, or behind bedroom doors (like the exception to this rule is between you and your lover. THAT'S beautiful, cause that's like, the deepest intimacy you could ever achieve, touching your lover's SOUL)

The bond between you and your dæmon is absolutely sacred, and you can talk with them, they support you and guide you how they can, you keep each other company, you grow together, and as a child you play together too.

And as a kid, until a certain age (it's different for everyone but it's typically between 10 to 18, but much more common in between that), your dæmon can change animals (symbolism of how your personality is still developing and stuff from what I understand), and when you reach a certain age and "officially grow up", in a sense, your dæmon settles into one animal forever (that is, yes, a reflection of who you are))

This is gonna be fun :DDD

Wednesday's dæmon is a magpie, named Alistair

I can easily imagine that Alistair would be the only one who can actually reason with her LOL

Also I'm imagining this really tense scene where Tyler and Alistair are staring at each other, and Alistair steps closer to his hand that's resting on the table, as if he's trying to touch him, and Wednesday notices, freaks out, and immediately scolds him about it. Like this moment would practically prove to him that Wednesday has feelings for him..!!!!

She also probably settled pretty early, like, at ten years old. Idk it makes sense to me that she'd already know who she is and settle earlier than most kids.

Tyler's dæmon is a golden retriever named Nyla

I know I'm a horrible person for this but if they had dæmons, Laurel Gates would almost for sure touch his... like, maybe especially when he's shackled in the cave, where he can't reach them. I'm revolted thinking about it...

Oh my gosh what if that's how Gates unlocks him? By touching Nyla... and THEN pulling them apart while he's shackled? Because Hydes can be unlocked through traumatic events, right? OH MY GOSHJWJDJWJDHWD. Like, maybe the Hyde still isn't coming out, so Gates, in a moment of madness and frustration, starts dragging Nyla away from him, and he's literally screaming from the sheer pain of it, pulling against the shackles to try to get to her, then he FINALLY transforms into the Hyde, saving both their lives but also severing them. Which would mean they can separate now, but at WHAT COST?

But this would explain why Wednesday wouldn't be able to identify he's the monster, because if there was a golden retriever running alongside the Hyde, Wednesday would've easily been able to identify that the Hyde was Tyler LOL. Maybe that's how it'd work in this universe generally tho, Hydes' dæmons get severed from them the moment the Hyde is unlocked.

But imagine Tyler and Nyla having to pretend nothing's wrong and taking extra care neither of them stray too far from each other, or else someone might suspect something. AAAAAAAA-

But uh other than that depressing stuff, I think Tyler and Nyla would find a lot of comfort and solace in each other. Like, they're literally all they have. Like, nights just cuddling with each other for comfort. Even when they're trapped in the cave and Laurel leaves them there, Nyla breaks out of the cage Laurel put her in and goes up to Tyler to try to give him some warmth.

Yes don't worry, even when you're severed, if you survive, you still have a connection with your dæmon, it's just never the same.

Enid's dæmon is an Arctic Hare named Amiel

I'm thinking since Enid wolfed out late, Amiel settled late, too. Maybe werewolves only settle when they wolf out 🤔 and maybe their dæmons merge with them when they wolf out, just because I think it'd be wildly inconvenient to have ur dæmons running after you in werewolf form LOL

AWWW I can imagine that, after wolfing out, Amiel immediately runs to her and presses his forehead against hers. And when Enid and Amiel are going back to the school, she's like, carrying him. And when Ajax runs to her and comforts her, he leaps from her arms and towards HIS dæmon and presses THEIR foreheads together AWWWW WHRUWHHRE

Ajax's dæmon is a curly tailed lizard named Ariadne

I just feel like they'd both be very chill LOL. I can imagine her chilling on Ajax's head while waiting for him to de-stone.

Also imagine Ariadne and Amiel cuddling when Ajax and Enid are having a moment together. Like THAT'S CUTE. Imagine... imagine... them being alone together in Enid's and Wednesday's room and them touching each others' dæmons for the first time aaaa wjdjwjdjje

Bianca's dæmon is a capuchin monkey named Aimone

They look like they're judging someone very intensely LMAOO

Idk I feel like Aimone will be this cool, intimidating dæmon sitting on Bianca's shoulder and looking down on everyone else.

And last but not least, Xavier's dæmon is a cobra, named Ophelia

In the description I found of cobra dæmons, the description that stood out to me the most was "just a touch dramatic", which Xavier definitely is HAHAHAHA. But I love the image of Ophelia chilling in his sleeve, watching him draw.

Also Xavier's parents' dæmons would totally name his dæmon after Ophelia Hall LOL

Final thoughts

Idk if Enid would be the only one out of the six of them that hadn't settled yet, but I honestly don't know who wouldn't be, cause they all seem to already have a decent idea of who they are. I'd assume Eugene isn't settled yet either, tho, and maybe not Pugsley yet either.

Dæmons also constantly mirror what their humans are doing and reveals more about the interaction of the humans. Like, if there are people having a romantic interaction, the dæmons might start nuzzling each other. If they're arguing, the dæmons might be growling or cawing or hissing and just getting angry at each other. Like, that scene where Lucas, Carter and Jonah harass Wednesday. All their dæmons would be staring each other DOWN. And when Wednesday and Tyler first kiss, their dæmons were probably gently going to each other and started nuzzling each other lovingly. AAAAAAUGHHH

Also Laurel Gates would definitely be the kind of person to make her dæmon attack other people's dæmons (this usually causes pain to the dæmon's human, but not the same as if she actually hurt Nyla herself). Like she probably did that to Tyler when she was first dragging him to that cave to unlock him. She probably also punishes him by hurting Nyla (or... NO, making Tyler hurt her... NOOOO). She probably also does this to Wednesday in Crackstone's crypt or something. But Wednesday would definitely do this back to her (and maybe to other people too?? Like, people who mess with the people she cares about?? idk tho)

(what if... and I'm completely making this up now this is NOT canon to the dæmon lore of his dark materials AT ALL... but what if just before Tyler is severed from Nyla, because of the Hyde changing his personality, he unsettles?? Or does the Hyde have his own dæmon that makes Nyla shift into its own animal when he takes over in Tyler's body??? idk I'm just rambling at this point I don't even know what I'm saying)

Should I... should I write a fanfic of this universe. I actually might. The potential this has!!!

Anyway lastly here is a nice compilation of dæmon moments from the His Dark Materials show!!!

(Will reblog and add thoughts if I have any more :DD)

ough the stevie/matt story has me sooo 🥺🥺🥺 it’s such a shitty situation and I know exactly how she feels, wishing she could blame it on someone else or pinpoint the moment he decided she wasn’t worth it (in her mind anyway, I don’t think he sees her or the situation like that). and being so mad and hurt and confused, but the person who hurt you is the only one you want to comfort you….!!! excellently portrayed queen brandi as always, I am deep in my feelings (in a good way)💔

thank you so much for reading, i'm glad it resonated with you 🥺 i've written so many amicable breakups, it felt good to explore a breakup that isn't so clear cut in its reasoning. neither of them are getting too mean (i thought about it, but that's just not who they are) but they're saying all the things they were too scared to say before, because they have nothing more to lose. stevie spent so long denying her feelings out of fear, but now that the worst thing she could've imagined has already happened, she's able to freely say "i love you" and admits to herself that she needs matt. for his part, matt thought he was protecting stevie by not telling her exactly what turned him off to the relationship, but he realizes that stevie doesn't want to stay friends no matter what he says & he's already hurt her, so he just lays it all out there.

the person who hurt you being the only person you want to comfort you is suuuuch a mind fuck 😭 like, my best friend and i NEVER fight, except when we moved in together and had this huge screaming argument. we were both crying and i stormed outside and the first thing i did was try to call her (my best friend) to tell her about it. i actually did call her and i was like "i need to rant about this fight i just had with this crazy ass bitch" and we forgave each other instantly lmao but i'll never forget that hopeless, sinking feeling i had when i picked up my phone and started typing in the name of the person who made me feel so upset in the first place. that was the exact moment where i realized what my life would be like if she wasn't in it, and i wanted no part of that.

so i really feel for stevie, knowing that this is the last time she'll ever go to matt for comfort :(

Bobe!

Who starts most fights?

B, easy. Obe does not pick fights with B. That's his best friend. B is very 'hot and cold' about people, so if he turns cold on Obelus, it's fights for days.

Who surrenders at the end of most fights?

Obelus. He doesn't like when him and B fight, and will almost always take the blame even when it isn't his fault (which is most of the time). If he doesn't surrender, the fight won't end.

Who is more likely to cry during a fight?

Probably B, but it might not be genuine tears. Obelus isn't a big crier, in fact, B desperately wishes Obe would show more emotion.

Who is more likely to storm out during a fight?

B. He'll try anything to make Obelus give in, and will likely even go on very dangerous benders in an attempt to make Obelus worry more.

Who is louder in fights?

Definitely B. Obelus doesn't really yell. B will scream until his throat is raw.

Who is more likely to throw things in fights?

B, but Obe has the mystic power of being able to catch stuff even when he's not looking, which makes B even angrier and more likely to throw more stuff, more dangerous stuff.

Who is more likely to bring up past mistakes?

Also B... lol. B is very unforgiving. He'll hold grudges until the other person dies, and even then some if the person went and died on him! Obelus sees B with rose colored glasses on...

Well, Obelus is actually fully aware of how horrible B can be. It's less like rose colored glasses, and more like he doesn't care. B can make all the mistakes he wants. Obelus will stay with him regardless.

Who is more likely to give the silent treatment?

Obelus. It's one of the only ways he has to really get to B. B can't stand the silent treatment and it might be the only way to really either get his attention back or make him apologize, even if it isn't sincere.

Who is more likely to blame the other?

B is really good at pointing fingers. There's hardly anything Obe would blame B for, even when it's literally B's fault. B could break Obe's arm and Obe would thank him and apologize.

Who is more likely to blame themselves?

Neither, really, but probably Obelus by default since he won't usually blame B either.

Who gets jealous more easily?

Obelus. B likes sharing with Obe, but Obe does not like sharing B with anyone. Obelus mellows out about it when they're adults, but especially as teenagers he HATES that B gives anyone else attention. This causes a lot of fights with A, too.

Who is angered more easily?

B without question. Obelus has something that prevents him from getting too emotional most of the time, so even if Obe got mad, it's usually pretty mild. B is like a pipe bomb in your mailbox.

Who is more likely to break off the relationship?

Neither. Obelus is too attached and B is too possessive. If one of them were to seriously break it off, it would probably be B during his 'hot and cold' fits where he sees Obe as the scum of the earth. Then he'd act like he never broke it off, call Obe crazy, and they'd go back to normal.

Who is more likely to threaten to leave?

Hm... Well, I'd say Obe as a tactic to try to get B to come back down to earth.

Who is more likely to actually leave?

B actually left, so... probably B...

Who is more likely to forget the other first?

They will never forget each other. Both of them would die before that could happen. Even if the one dies, the other wouldn't move on. That isn't to say they wouldn't gain another partner or anything, but they both fill a hole that nobody else quite fits.

uhhhh domesticity meme domandy??

OH MAN. OH, MAN. god this one got long.

big spoon/little spoon: screaming already okay we can do this. i think that andy is just like, a little bit taller than dom, but he's all spindly and dom is not. so usually dom is the big spoon. but sometimes - yknow, when randy died - andy is big spoon. it is a rare thing for special (derogatory) occasions.

favorite non-sexual activity: dom gets such a fucking kick out of making andrew do all the tourist shit. they've been on the ferry to see the statue of liberty like once a month since he got there. every weekend dom is like "i've got something REALLY exciting planned, some real native nyc shit" and then they're at the empire state building again. ("it's not even-- like, the better view is from the rockefeller center, dom, why are we here again?" / "are you doubting the taste of a true new yorker? i'm hurt, andy, really. you're so cruel to me.") for andy's part he's just happy to be with dom, like. as much as he gripes he feels pretty damn special for being taken anywhere.

who uses all the hot water: there is a very strict time limit on showers in the mills apartment, with punishment of having to do the dishes after dinner. both dom and andy end up doing the dishes together every single night because they're so bad about this. at some point dom is like "well if we shower TOGETHER then we get double the time, no one can get mad at us." that doesn't work. they take even longer.

most trivial thing they fight over: correct pronunciation of "houston." it is an old argument, they get into it once every few weeks, patty and winnie and co have all asked them to stop but they just won't. sometimes you bicker to flirt. it's fine.

who does most of the cleaning: andy is a hell of a lot neater than dom but that's not actually saying much. dominic marijuana is a "picks up clothes off the floor and sniffs to tell if they're still wearable" guy, where andy is more of a "somehow all of my clothes have ended up piled on the couch and i do not have it in me to put them away" kinda situation.

who calls up the super/landlord when the heat's not working: dominic will NOT stand for this. he calls. yes, he and the supervisor hooked up once a few months back, and maybe things are awkward, but he's the team captain it's his JOB--

who steals the blankets: andy is so fucking cold. all the time, he is cold, from the months of like october through june. he wanders around in the mornings with a comforter over his shoulders for a while there. it is dom's. this is how everyone finds out they're officially together now.

who remembers to buy the milk: patty fox. neither andy nor dom can be trusted to do the groceries, actually, and if you send them out it's your own damn fault when they come back with six pounds of dino chicken nuggets and several bags of cotton candy and popcorn from battin' island. (patty: "why were you even there?" / dom: "solis here thought he could hit more home runs than me in a derby." / patty: "and did you?" / andy, mouth full of popcorn: "absolutely not.")

who remembers anniversaries: dom remembers them like two weeks after the fact. andy remembers but doesn't really make a huge deal out of them it's more of a thing where he goes like. ah! we've done it! and then he moves on with his day because he knows dom's not one for big showy things, and he's not, either.

who cooks normally: dom CAN cook, but he's not overly fond of it. sometimes if he's in the mood he'll give it a go. andy is a very admirable sous chef and his vegetables are chopped very evenly (by which dom means, of course, "you are a miserable excuse for a chef and i do not know how you survived on your own before now")

what do they do when they're away from each other: dom plays guitar and honestly goes on a lot of runs. he also helps out at some local nonprofits for lower-income kids in the neighborhood and what have you on occasion when he has the time. andy still technically works for the spies as a "field operative" so he "writes reports" wherein he lies about anything and everything because he doesn't know enough to provide accurate intel. reese knows this and does not care.

nicknames for each other: nada! lots of homoerotic use of the last name, again, but i definitely think dom is one for the ironic use of "babe," "baby," etc, over using it sincerely. andy is prone to getting embarrassed if he tries to be smooth, so it takes like six months for him to even try saying "baby," and then he and dom laugh so hard they can't breathe and it never happens again.

what would they get each other for gifts: andrew gives great gifts actually. he'll like make notes about things dom says he wants but can't afford right now and start saving up, and it's always well-received. dominic is not GREAT at the gift-giving, at least not every time, but he tries really fucking hard to at least make andrew feel special with lots of quality time and what have you, followed by a whole "so is there anything you want, because--"

who made the first move: dominic marijuana is a flirt and a little bit of a slut and i am SO proud of him. he guns for andrew fucking immediately, and andrew is JUST fine with that because if it were up to him they wouldn't have gotten together until he'd pined and tried to parse out hidden signals for five to ten months.

who cusses more: they both swear a LOT, but it took a while to get there. when andy first got to new york he was pretty reserved and soft-spoken in a lot of ways but the longer he's there the worse his mouth gets. they're both constantly catching themselves about to swear in front of cameras after the game and whatever.

what would they do if the other was hurt: well dom is a fucking mother hen is the thing like he would definitely hover, and after a while it'll drive andrew nuts but in the beginning at least it's pretty nice. andrew ALSO hovers but in a much less productive way, less of a "i brought you soup and tea" and more of a "oh god if i leave this room you're going to Die" and this is just not very helpful so after a while dom has to be like. will you just sit down and cool it, i'm fine.

#ask meme #tam.ask #fourteenfifteen #hen you are hitting me with. so many feelings. i forgot how much i ADORE. these GUYS. damn it.

[tears-of-boredom]

dreamt of sinking into snow again. also something about a police officer who used a blue sports car as his on duty vehicle, and I wanted to kill him. also going to a new school with the same grade mates as my old one.

oh and also I was in a house yeah. my grandparents' house to be more exact but that didnt really matter. so there's two people covered in blood, they've been fighting. both have a giant wrench as a weapon. one who looks suspiciously like mad mikkelsen as hannibal lecter, their wrench is clearly old, colored red and grey. the other is just some random blonde dude, their wrench is clearly newer, colored a light gray. they're both beat the fuck up. they were fighting. im in the room as well, but I am certain that neither will attack me. a woman comes in. it's hannibal guy's girlfriend. blonde dude goes to clean himself up a bit, comes back. they're all civil for a bit, until blonde tries to, suspiciously slow, throw his wrench at the woman. hannibal has no trouble stopping him. hannibal threatens blonde, but at this point it is clear to me that they are just acting like this to lower the woman's guard. me and blonde step back for a bit as hannibal and the woman talk. he acts all loving. tries to get her to relax by unbuttoning her cardigan.

(lore drop: hannibal guy kills people yeah, his girlfriend knows this. his signature move is to unbutton a top the victim is wearing, before killing them.)

yeah so the woman realises what hannibal is doing and screams and runs for her life. i dont particularly wanna hear the sounds of her dying, so I go to find a place where I'll be least likely to hear it. blonde does the same, although i get the vibe that he only does so to stay out of hannibal's way.

and so the woman is actually quite good at running away from hannibal, probably because she knows his stragedies. for some reason neither of them exit the house during this chase. im lowkey rooting for the woman to win, just cause it'd be interesting to see hannibal lose for once. oh and at this point "winning" means beating the other up until they can't continue the chase. its clear that there is no escaping without conflict. i find a good enough spot to wait it out, and discover that blonde actually thought of the same place.

and thats the end.

On Simeon and what it means to be an angel

The beautiful, gentle angel who can smile through just about anything. But what's underneath the ever-present smile of his? Is he really just pure, sweet, and kind?

Not at all. Simeon can be very mischievous at some times, and scarily wrathful at others. Some of you may be thinking, just what kind of angel is someone like that? Well, let's talk about that.

(includes spoilers up to lesson 52)

Starting with the idea of what angels are supposed to be like - the common, pop-culture characterization of angels is that they are pure, merciful, peaceful beings who can only do good and are horrified by anything dark or bad.

And admittedly, Simeon doesn't seem to quite perfectly fit that mold.

[Disclaimer: Neither mod of this blog belong to the Abrahamic religions, so this is purely from our own research]

In terms of how angels have been described in various scriptures, however, this isn't actually what they are like. Angels act on behalf of God, and are usually not meant to have any free will of their own. The thing that separates angels from demons is not a tendency towards kindness and purity, but that their actions are aligned with God's desires rather than their own. What this means in effect is that, both in actual scripture and in the game, angels can and will do things that are a lot less pure and peaceful than their modern mainstream depictions would suggest.

For example, there is a part of the Bible (at least in various versions) where it is mentioned that an angel was ordered by God to kill one hundred eighty-five Assyrians, leaving their camp full of dead bodies in the morning.

The poet Rainer Maria Rilke states in his The Duino Elegies - "Every Angel is terror".

Seraphim - which is what OM!'s renditions of Simeon and Lucifer both formerly were - are basically six-winged snakes. Cherubim, as OM!'s Beelzebub formerly was, are actually multi-faced humanoid-lions with wings. "Do not be afraid," is a line angels often say when they meet humans because they are just as scary-looking as demons - just they're, you know, the "good" ones.

Actual descriptions of angels aside, even in-game, we are presented with example after example that angels are not perfect "pure and good" beings either. The game itself emphasizes this point at various times - if you upset Simeon during Surprise Guest interactions, one of his displeased lines is: "Just because I'm an angel doesn't mean I'm all forgiving." In lesson 51, though he initially says he left Satan to be with the Angel versions of his brothers for Satan's benefit, if MC actually agrees that he was just being kind, he is surprised that they really believed him.

It's not just him, either. Similar to Simeon's upset reaction, if you give Luke a present he doesn't like, he says, "I know I'm an all-forgiving angel and everything, but even so, this is a little too much..." When MC briefly lands in the past, the brothers actually describe Simeon as the least intense of the seraphim. Back when the brothers were angels, Lucifer was still known for being strict and arrogant. On the more extreme end, Raphael was known for keeping the angels in line via the pointy end of his spear, as Asmodeus fears will happen to him as punishment for going to a party. And Michael himself, the top-ranking leader, who one might think should be the most angelic of angels, is described as a sadist. In the Angelic Demons event, Michael even gets Simeon to give the demon brothers cursed bracelets that temporarily turn them into angels. It's not a very nice prank to pull on them, as it makes the brothers miserable to be converted back to their old forms, not to mention that the curse goes so far that they are turned into the caricature of overly nice and polite angels - but as it could be considered more in line with pulling them towards "God's will," this would actually be considered a good angel thing to do.

As the game points out, being the least intense doesn't exactly make Simeon easygoing, either. In fact, we have seen at this point quite a few examples of Simeon's rage. As a play director, he berates the brothers so much over any mistakes that they call him a dictator. Not to mention, the reason they are in the play in the first place is because the entire previous cast quit because they couldn't deal with him.

Later, when he and Luke are running the Angel's Halo, he drags the brothers into helping out. Though he is shown still smiling, everyone agrees because they are terrified of his menacing aura. Even Diavolo, when on the home screen, remarks about hiding because he made Lucifer mad again, but it's Simeon who he calls "the one person in this world I don't want to anger."

On a much lighter note, some of his less "angelic" behavior also comes from his playful, mischievous side. As referenced earlier, he is surprised if MC believes he was just being nice, but if the player says they thought he was pranking Satan, it gives intimacy points with him, and he says:

He also joins in on the teasing of Luke, having his name as "Luke (Chihuahua)" in his D.D.D. contacts. Multiple of his home screen lines also show how much he loves messing with Luke in general:

"I'm free right now, so I think I might go and tease Luke."

"Luke is like a Chihuahua who thinks it is a German Shepherd. Cute, huh?"

"I'm back! I was so excited to meet you that I left Luke behind."

"If you don't eat enough breakfast, you'll turn out tiny like Luke."

Plus, in dance battles, one of his chibi poses is him teasingly scaring someone, while Luke has a corresponding scared pose, suggesting that he may be meant to be scaring Luke in particular.

He also gets MC to mess with Belphegor when they are looking for him, instructing them to kick the tree that he knows he's probably asleep in as hard as they possibly can.

However, while none of those things make him any less of an angel, there is evidence to support that he is, in fact, a "bad" angel in a different sense.

As the two Celestial Realm exchange students, Simeon and Luke represent two opposite ends of a spectrum of angel attitudes. Luke, having still been very young when the Great Celestial War happened, has been taught to have very uptight views of the demons, insisting that they are evil and should be avoided at all costs. When he first arrives in the Devildom, he is terrified at the idea that the two of them could get corrupted by the demons and fall. This is the prevailing attitude taught in the Celestial Realm: that demons are wicked, and that angels are inherently better than them.

By contrast, Simeon does not hold this view at all. He is happy to spend time with the demon brothers, and doesn't look down on them for falling. On the home screen, Luke complains, "Simeon is too sweet to demons! He's sweeter than a cake from Madam Scream's!" In the Rain, a Fire and Simeon Devilgram story, Simeon even talks about how he actually prefers the hustle and bustle of the Devildom, feeling that the Celestial Realm feels too quiet now.

This difference between him and Luke is not only expressed in his fondness for the demons, either. Simeon understands the nuances of good vs evil, and he himself seems to operate in shades of grey at times, rather than being perfectly aligned with Michael's (and by extension, it's implied, God's) wishes. More than once, he displays quite a flippant attitude towards following the rules, such as his very hand-wavey dismissal when MC asks about his lying.

Luke also calls him out on his disregard for rules, saying that Simeon is just too loose about following them:

However, this glib attitude should not be taken to mean that Simeon doesn't know exactly what he's doing. When it seems the only solution to restore stability to the three realms is for MC to sever all their pacts with the demon brothers, he quickly realizes that the other option, the Ring of Light that used to belong to Lucifer, must be hidden among Michael's things rather than lost to time as everyone thought. He tells Luke that he needs to go back to the Celestial Realm to take care of something, but he is firm that Luke should not come with him - because he is going to steal the ring from Michael, a risky, rebellious move that he doesn't want Luke to get involved in. He is perfectly aware of what he's doing, and actively chooses to do it anyway, consequences be damned, because he wants to do what he feels is right.

When Michael does confront him about it, he's not the least bit sorry, either. In fact, he sasses him and talks back, unafraid to show disrespect to God's top angel.

We also know that he's been demoted at some point. Luke tells MC that Simeon is an archangel, making him one of the Celestial Realm's warriors, or as Simeon himself has jokingly described it, a "low-level grunt" who is overworked by higher-up angels like Michael. However, during MC's time travel back to the Celestial Realm, we learn that Simeon used to be a seraph right alongside Michael and Lucifer. It is again referenced during the fairy incident, when he makes the low-level grunt joke again but is then reminded that he was a seraph at this point in time. We're not sure yet why he was demoted - there's a lot of speculation on this point, and we can't draw any definitive conclusions yet - but if we take that being a "good" angel means being obedient to Michael and God, we start to get a far less rosy picture of Simeon's good standing as an angel.

What does this mean? Is he a "bad" angel? Kind of, but not for the reasons some may think. His mischievous, devious, and playful side is not what makes him less angelic. It is his more rebellious, nonconformist way of doing things that actually opens up the possibility of him gradually getting further and further away from being an ideal angel, and potentially putting him on the path of falling from grace.

Wanna draw the femsides interacting with the OGs s o bad rn but alas, my hand refuses. So-

The reason they even m e e t is because Thomas bonks his head on someone else who a l s o has her own facets. It's weird, kinda bridges their minds in a way. Super weird. Don't think too much on it. It's either that or Thomas somehow wanders into a different dimension?? Which-is super confusing. Moving on

Each Side goes to their own respective place in the mind palace-only things are just slightly off.

First thing Virgil did was flop onto "his" bed. Probably to just lay there and scroll aimlessly through tumblr. And the second he does he glances up at the ceiling and there's this fckin purple emo chick just gawking at him. "...." "...." and then cue screaming and pillows being chucked back and forth and loud demands of "What are you doing in my room?!" From both of them

Eventually they tire themselves out and form a truce long enough to figure out something is real funky and he's not supposed to be there.

Patton ends up in the kitchen and-okay literally he just started helping Patti bake cookies and it wasn't until after they were done that they realized "I thought I was seeing double!" Right at the same time. Best friends immediately. They just keep baking and chatting and then they play video games

Logan figures out something is incredibly wrong right away. Everything is organized but n o t where he had placed them. The second Loren comes in they just ".... I'll grab a white board." Immediate theorizing. Logan finds Loren a little... overbearing, but he's fascinated with this whole thing

Roman and Remus find themselves together-which is definitely not the plan. But neither of them can sink out. Which is odd. They're on what appears to be a battlefield. And suddenly there's this armored figure right in front of them just, scrutinizing them something fierce. And t h e n this fcking cackling mad woman on a six-legged horse comes riding up spouting some nonsense about "fighting art block" and Romona just holds her hand up for her sister to grab so she can swing herself up onto the horse and resume the fight.

It's an epic fight. And after everything disappears into a blank slate Renée is just "... aren't you gonna poof the goobers?" "I didn't make them-I thought y o u made them?" And it's just a confusing thing all around.

Remus and Renée get along great. But Romona is more reserved-b u t appears to make an effort once Renée clears them.

Janus doesn't actually meet his counterpart until after everyone is brought together in the common room. Janice just, coming in all "And what is it that's so exciting that it's getting my girls all worked up-oh no. Several white men." Virgil hisses at her, of course. And Vi is just, "Dude?"

Janus and Janice get along v well. Though it appears like they don't with their catty natures.

Things are very different between all of them. For one thing, Loren and Janice have the most influence, with Creativity taking a backseat in most decisions.

Cut to Tabitha, the femsides' uh, person-she is not having a good time. There are too many thoughts. Overstimulated af.

The sides are eager to return to Thomas, who is thankfully napping
