Sirene asteroid (1009) observations

Sagittarius Sirene people appeal to others when they're fulfilling their purpose or having a clear direction in their lives. For example, my cousin has this placement, and she's able to appeal to others when she's so sure about being a dancer, believing that she was made for that, following the direction set by her heart/intuition without questioning it.

I have this placement too, and I think people come to me a lot in search for answers, to understand themselves better since Sagittarius is all about expanding ourselves.

Sirene in the 5th house is about mesmerizing people when you're in the spotlight, being confident and letting yourself shine. Also when performing, so this is a good placement for celebrities. My cousin has this, and she grabs everyone's attention when dancing, plus her personality (5H) is very charismatic.

I also have Sirene in the 5th House, and I'm not so comfortable in the spotlight which to me comes from the Capricorn degree (10°, 22°). This brings delays and challenges when it comes to you expressing or getting used to this alluring energy. You have lessons to learn before you're able to own this energy.

A Leo degree shows that you're confident to use this energy, you were born to be seen and to shine under the spotlight! Guess who has this. Yes, my cousin 💃🏻⭐️ It's worth noting though, that she has insecurities and suffers from anxiety, but she still loves the spotlight and wants to shine.

Libra Sirene attracts people when they show a chill attitude, by wanting to make everyone feel comfortable or included, by using a soft voice and having a great sense of aesthetics. My dad, for example, uses a soft voice when he wants to be polite or liked by others, and shows a super chill attitude with my sister and I's friends. A couple of my girl friends simped for him 😷

My sister has this placement too and she's the type to try and include everyone in the conversation, plus she too softens her voice when being polite or wanting to be liked? She also has a great eye for fashion. And with her friends she appears more chill than how she really is (she's crazy, your honor - in a good way).

Jungkook from BTS has Libra Sirene and his singing voice is very soft compared to what I thought it would sound like at first.

He also has Sirene in the 9th House so he might drawn in more foreign fans than korean. This placement could indicate being alluring when you're open to learn from other cultures or expand your understanding of things. Think about ambiences like college, school, foreing countries.

Scorpio Siren could be appealing when they're intense, reserved, observant, alert. Also, when they're being toxic (controlling or uninterested) or give off that aura of bad boy. For example, one of my exes has this, and he pulled me in with little to no effort, he used to take his time replying to my messages and I waited for him, thinking about what he could be doing and wishing for his attention. 🤢

A high school friend has this placement too, and he had this air or mystery when he actually was doing nothing? He has Scorpio Sun conjunct Sirene, and he wasn't easy to get close to at first. It's like he gave off an air of "I'm on my own, don't bother me", and some girls pinned after him.

Virgo Sirene people are alluring when they keep a humble attitude, lending their attention to you and recognizing they can learn something from anyone. My grandma and two friends (a guy and a girl) sometimes would ask me for advice, to explain something to them or to give them my opinion about something, and as I reply they'd look at me with the utmost attention, not wanting to miss any detail. They look at you recognizing the value of your words and that's so wholesome, it makes you feel heard and appreciated.

Sirene in the 1st House might give a great first impression considering it's the house of beginnings. They might be the person people notice or get curious about first in a group, and nobody knows why; it's unconscious. They also might atract people when they take initiative, which movilizes or motivates others. They seem like they would do good in a leadership position, people would be drawn to listening to them (especially when they're in the energy of the sign their Sirene asteroid falls under).

For example, a Virgo Sirene in the 1st House person might drawn people in by taking iniciative and assuming the role of a leader in a humble way, paying attention to everyone's input and striving to reach their ideal.

Could you do something with the reader with pretty heavy facial scarring (you could do burns or cuts ) and they hear a couple of guys making fun of them and usually doesn't bother them but they've been having a really shitty day and the CoD boys trying to cheer them up! <33

CW: Talks about scars and insecurities, everything is made up and everything said is not canon <3 Wholesome fluff

It had taken you years to finally accept that the scars on your face were never going to go away so you decided it was not worth hiding them behind some mask. It’s been a couple of years ever since you’ve felt comfortable in your own skin and embraced the ugly scars that ran over your face.

You had the absolute pleasure of training some recruits and it was exhausting, none of them listening and being absolute idiots. You didn’t get much sleep last night and right now all you wanted to do was choke them out. When the session ended you dismissed everyone with great excitement and headed out to leave.

As you were walking you heard the voices of an oblivious group of recruits, you stopped to listen and your heart dropped.

“Did you see their face, it’s disgusting”

“I know right if that was me I wouldn’t set foot out of my house”

You heard them laugh and continue to make fun of your scarred face and it tug a cord so deep inside of you that it physically pained you.

The tears started to well in your eyes and you ran as fast as you could past anyone near you. You headed towards your dorm and locked yourself away not caring that you still had responsibilities for the day.

You knew it was stupid to get upset over it but you just weren’t in the mood to be dealing with your image right now.

You dug through the bottoms of your drawers and pulled out the mask that you were grown so accustomed to. Sliding it over your head you relaxed as you felt it press against the ugliest part of your body. The tears soon soaked through but you didn’t care as you silently sobbed on the floor next to your bed.

“Where's Y/N?” Soap asks the group as they gather together for dinner time.

“No idea, haven't seen them all day, have you, Captain?”

“They were in charge of the recruits today but now I think of it they didn’t come see me afterwards” Price thinks back to his day and confirms that you definitely didn’t see him.

“Ghost, you seen em?”

“No. Maybe they’ll show up here”

When you don't show up for your dinner the boys get confused and worried as to where you have gone. Walking together they stop off by your dorm first just in case you have fallen ill.

Price knocks on the door and presses his ear against it checking for any movement inside.

You heard the knock but stayed as still as possible begging in your mind for whoever it was to just go away. But as you stop breathing for a second your throat lets out an unwanted noise alerting the men on the other side of your presence.

“Y/N? Are you in there?” Price asks through the door but you don’t say anything back.

“C’mon we know ye in there” Soap yells as he also pressed his ear up against the door.

“Well break the door down” Ghost's voice was heard now and you immediately got up because you know he’s serious.

When you opened the door with a little more force than you wanted, Soaps body toppled inside making you let out an irritated huff.

“What do you want”

“You didn’t show up for dinner” Gaz says holding a bag of some leftover food.

They all noticed the mask but didn’t say anything about it until they were inside of your room.

“Are you okay?”

“Of course why wouldn’t I be?” Your voice cracked at that and tears threatened to spill yet again. But when you saw the concerned eyes of the others your heart broke and they flooded down your masked cheeks.

“Oh kiddo, what’s really up”

You sat on your bed and ripped off your mask which shows the damp skin underneath “This!” You point to your face and then hide behind your hands while the tears continue.

“What? Your face?”

“Yes Soap my face!”

You felt the bed dip in different directions and then hands wrapped around you “There’s nothing wrong with your face”

“You’ve never cared before so obviously something happened”

You took a deep breath in while nestling into their holds and sighed “Just some recruits said some shit, it’s stupid really”

There was a moment of silence between all of you until you felt someone move away. Ghost sat in front of you without his mask and tried to give you a smile “You know you’re braver than me, I still hide behind my silly mask” you huff a laugh and go back to frowning.

Another person moved and you turned to look and your Captain looked at you with teary eyes “This is why I’ve never been shirtless around you lot” a massive scar runs across his torso, the jagged lines making it look sharp.

“Captain… you didn’t have to show us if you don’t want to”

“No it’s okay”

The remaining pair unlatch their arms from you in sync and both stop. “Together?” Soap says and Gaz just nods.

“Guys you really don’t have-” you were shut up with a finger to your lips.

You first saw Gaz lift his shirt while Soap pulled down his trousers “Woah Soap PG please”

“A girl I was dating called my burn ugly and I never wore shorts after that moment”

“I’ve always hid this just like you Captain, even though it’s on my back I just feel like people can see it and are laughing”

You bring everyone into a hug and crush them with your weight “I’m so proud of you guys” some of them shook as they cried silently against one another and so did you at how much they’ve hid as they were disgusted by their own scars.

“Why don’t we spend the rest of the evening together and away from everyone, how does that sound?”

“Fuck yeah Captain!”

“We could watch that new movie I downloaded the other day” Gaz suggests and you all get up off the bed to get into a comfy position to watch the film “Well get a move on Garrick we don’t have all day” the sergeant rushes off into the other dorm and comes back in with a laptop in hand.

“I hope you enjoy romance”

“Oh fuck off”

I thought I sent in this ask a couple of weeks back, maybe you did get it and was saving it for later, in which case just ignore this, the last thing I wanna do is pressure you. But if Tumblr was bein' silly and it never went through, here it is:

Inspired by a TikTok I never saved, where Miguel catches Gabriella awake but she's faking being asleep. His way of getting herself to blow her own cover? Telling her to smile cuz for some reason we just smile when someone tells us to. (At least with people we like, probably doesn't work with strangers lol)

If you wanted to, Benji could be involved in this too, or even a future Rosie :3 Maybe all three. Whoever and whatever scenario you see fit! It'll be wholesome either way!

Tumblr is weird af. Sorry for taking this long :') Hope you like! 😊

Pre Rosie btw

Clock ticked ten pm and the report was giving him a hard time since the data didn't match with the results. Where the mistake was?

He pinched his nose bridge, probably getting enough pressure to feel something besides rising frustration.

The rushed steps and giggles however alerted him, sending a little jolt in his heart. You were asleep despite previously fighting off the somnolence from your body, it won over you eventually, after all carrying a baby was exhausting. Benjamin was surely asleep by now.

There was a little thud and more steps. That only left him with one suspect. Gabriella.

Standing up, he snuck on the hallway before making his presence known by knocking her door. Rushed steps immediately stopped, instead he was met with the fresh shuffling of the sheets and a little giggle.

He chuckled and marched towards Gabi's bed.

"Mija..."

Silence. Gabriella was trying so hard to not burst into laughter. But that changed as Miguel tickled her above the sheets, earning bubbly squeals of joy.

"How odd, mi Solecito is asleep but all I hear is giggles"

Gabi kept laughing until her feet kicked the sheets out in an attempt to stop the tickling.

" I'm awake!" She giggled breathlessly and Miguel stopped with a soft smile plastered on his face.

"Why is my princesa awake?"

"I couldn't sleep. And It's fun to scare you."

He tickled her again, earning a loud happy shriek.

"Well, you did. Nearly get my heart out thinking the house was haunted."

Gabi laughed and sat on the bed.

"You gotta sleep, corazón. You've got a long day tomorrow"

"I know" She groaned, dragging the 'o'.

"Want me to sing you a lullaby?"

"I'm not a baby anymore, Papa."

He squeezed her in his arms, earning another muffled and chirping squeal

"You'll always be my baby."

Gabi melted in the hug and tried to embrace him as wide as he was.

"Smile for me?"

She did, a genuine one. A smile that always made his heart melt. He kissed her forehead and tucked her in.

"Buenas noches, Solecito. Te quiero. Descansa." (Goodnight, sunshine. Love you, rest well)

"También te quiero, Pa. Buenas noches." (Love you too, pa. Goodnight)

Miguel closed the door and let her sleep. The little interaction had renewed his energies.

Damian Al Ghul- Wayne fic recommendations

(THESE ARE ONLY A COUPLE TELL ME IF U WANT MORE OR A PART 2!!)

BrickSheep is one of my go-to ppl for Damian fics and content and just one of my OVERALL favs. they do great work and their writing is spectacular.

Satisfaction Brought It Back, by commanderquill. it’s a fic where Damian doesn’t end up with the Batfam when he comes to Gotham, but instead with Selina, and they become paw-tners in crime.

Spoiler Alert!, by almondrose. I really liked this one and thought it was inspiring bc i LOVE “time travel”/“supernatural” fics (it’s not rlly specified). i thought the concept was something ppl should expand

So, You Come Here Often? by Kate_Sylvester. It’s an amnesia JonDami fic that’s sweet and funny with some emotions! Cute Awkward flirting (if u couldn’t tell by the title)

I’m Where I Need To Be by BrickSheep is one of my ALL TIME FAVS!!! fem!Damian (who might seem OOC but it makes sense given what Damian’s gone through/how she was raised in this au. since Damian’s personality is very hinged on his upbringing i think this fic did a good job on showing how different the character would be if their experiences are different.), and i love the relationship between her and her family!!!! very sweet and wholesome and i did cry so much at the end (and throughout the whole thing-)

Who Broke It?, orphan_account. i liked this oneshot. it’s funny and the family shenanigans are hilarious (especially Damian’s reactions to them-). i loved the sibling solidarity and thought it was nice and realistic.

Don’t Be Suspicious by CarrionCarnival. This one is a funny one ab Damian accidentally getting high, and it made me wanna write Stoner Damian fics. It’s silly and pretty cute, with protective older siblings coming in at the end.

#damian wayne #fic recommendation #fic list #Damian Wayne Fic #Damian Wayne fic list #damian al ghul #literally i’m so embarrassed bc i’m pretty sure i gushed to a damian blog in their asks like a loser and freaked them out #fic recommendations #ao3fic #ao3 fic list #robin damian #damian #baby damian wayne #baby damian #kid damian wayne #kid damian

Idk why this is a hard concept to grasp:

Anything that would move the plot or character development forward.. is included in the book.

Major developments that move the plot forward - included in the book.

Character interactions that are important to the integral plot - included in the book.

Plot points to set up for future overarching plot - included in the book.

Therefore it makes absolutely no sense to have an entire couple that has been foreshadowed for 3 books now to break up in a bonus chapter.

That would leave readers confused. They will ask "oh, weren't Az & Elain a thing?" They will wonder about all the moments they read between the pairing in the last book.

It also makes no sense to include a new love interest in a bonus chapter.

I know people love to bring up "Have you read the bonus chapter?" any time someone says they don't know where Gwynriel came from. I think it's funny, because if Gwynriel was foreshadowed in the actual book, don't you think they'd be asking "Well, did you read the book?" Why is the first question "did you read the bonus chapter?"

That's what Elriels ask, btw, if someone even says they don't know where Elriel came from (very rare occurrence). They don't point to a BC where Azriel is explicitly showing desire for Elain (though that would be too easy), they point to the 3 books of canon text.

Gwynriel doesn't have anything outside the bonus chapter. And that bonus chapter is also heavily skewed based on their interpretation of the text. Most people still do not see romance between the two even after reading the gwynriel's beloved 2nd half of the BC.

My point is, if someone opened the next ACOTAR book and it was Azriel suddenly head over heels for Gwyn of all characters, people would be confused. Yes the bonus chapter is available, but most people haven't read it, and even then, it's not a very solid foundation for a whole BOOK of their romance.

SJM is not going to write something to cause more confusion with the plot in a bonus chapter. She's not going to suddenly break up the couple she's been foreshadowing for 3 books and insert a new love interest in a limited edition version of the book only found from one bookstore in the US.

And I know there are people that are like "Oh well SJM has written full marriages in the BC."

I assume they are referring to singular occurrence of that in the HOFAS BC.

*SPOILER ALERT*

Ruhn & Lidia get married in a BC. That's true. But their marriage and that BC occurs at the end of the book. After the main conflict has been solved, and it is essentially a happily ever after epilogue type bonus. It is not a major development of the plot nor a shock or twist to anyone. They were already mates and together. Them getting married in the bonus chapter was just a fun wholesome way to add to the series. In fact, the entire event was so lowkey Ruhns mom wasn't even mentioned as being there.

There were no questions raised after that BC. SJM could write a 4th CC book, and their marriage would likely not have any relevance to the overall plot of that novel. She could have never published it, and it wouldn't have changed a thing.

Thats the difference. BC do not cover major plot development, they sow seeds for the future and are sometimes just for fun. They are often not needed or relevant for the plot in the book at that time. So they are not included in the book. That's it. She doesn't write bonus chapters to cause even more confusion.

But I thought it was obvious 🤷🏻‍♀️

Heyyyy friend! can you tell me about your favorite Dream headcanons please? :3

OMG OMG OMG OMG HAIIII HAI HAI

GOD GOD GOD YES YES YES!! I GET TO TALK ABOUT MY SILLY HEADCANONS!! (spoiler alert: they're not that silly, I love to watch Dream suffer in a blorbo way) Gonna put this under a read more cause holy damn it's getting long-

Before we start, I think it's kinda obvious at this point, considering I always use they/them for Dream, that I heavily headcanon them to be Non-binary; it makes a lot of sense to me! also to list off the self-indulgent headcanons, definitely AuDHD. Like Ink. Yeah. They're both ND as HELL, and also, since I LOVE it when people think of the sanses as having their creators' nationality + accent + knowing their languages; for me Dream's spanish, which is great cause I am spanish too! and I love Dream :3

(and also bc I think it's cute that both Cross and the twins can speak spanish following that headcanon, like they can gossip in secret teehee :3)

Now, to start, well, well, well, well... I feel like people don't play enough with the fact that Dream and Nightmare are basically just energy; like, Nightmare does use his appearance and properties to kinda scare people but he's also not the same NM under the tree, so it changes, but Dream tho!!

I wrote a oneshot once on AO3 where Dream's like very excited over very mundane technology for us, and Cross is the one to kinda explain to them how that works (and NM too, it was a wholesome platonic fic with Cross bonding with the twins), while Cross also takes note of all the very... magical qualities the twins have, fae-like even. It's kinda well-known that Core and Dream are good friends but for me, part of why they connect well is bc they're both in that strange cusp of "neither monster nor human; knowing a lot about this world but still struggling to connect with it on an organic level", bc of Dream's knowledge on the balance and energies and Core's--- whole thing.

Also, it is canon that Dream has a fear of owls bc they can turn their heads 180º and they have big eyes so Dream finds it spooky that they can always look at you, and I can't confirm if this is "100% canon" but I've been told that Dream's claustrophobic as well. Now, other things that I'd say would be hard triggers for Dream, well, people say apples could trigger them but personally? I think apples must be nostalgic to Dream, both bc Nightmare and also bc they represent their mom; I'd say Dream just gets rather extreme nostalgia around apples, probably not fond of ACTUALLY eating them tho lmao

Personally, I'd like to expand on the claustrophobia thing bc of course it'd remind them of their time as a statue, the small space with no way of connecting with the outside, that'd spook them, but I wanna expand it to them getting extremely anxious whenever they can't move in any way; so like, they heal fast bc of their healing abilities and durability but if they were to, idk, break a bone and need to lay in bed for a couple hours, that'd get them very very anxious. And that comes from both the statue and also a huge huge huge need to be "useful" and "productive". Dream was also abused before NM's corruption but their abuse was more like. Being forced to please the villagers and so and so; like, feeling less like themself and more like a tool to others.

But yeah, also while I said that apples wouldn't be a trigger in the sense of making them panic, fire surely is, since it burned the tree down and is very connected to the day of NM's corruption. Basically, I do think that they panic in a major way whenever there's a lot of fire around or something really smells like burning (so imagine the situation whenever Ink tries to cook something and forgets about it later smh) like, those memories of the Day Of Doom would come back FAST.

Also, going back on that time as a statue thing, I've written posts about this before but like, fanfics often end up describing Dream as having "perfect pearly white bones" and like, probably not!! my guy spent 493 years as a statue! stone chips and erodes! their bones probably have small flaws! nothing major, but they're probably imperfect like that!!

This is getting so long, I'm so sorry 😭, I'll just list off some other miscellaneous headcanons that don't need that much more explanation: Dream, again, has AuDHD, but also AvPD (since that includes a LOT of people-pleasing and self-deprecation); definitely a workaholic if I've ever seen one. Dream's canonically demi-aro and ace + implied to be pan (as in, said to not care about the gender of their partner/s, y'know) and I kinda share that but my self-indulgent side wants them to be ominsexual like me (in practice, they're still mspec, all good all good), I headcanon them super duper heavily to be non-binary, like, their gender isn't just "blank", but it's just nothing remotely CLOSE to "man" or "woman". I headcanon them to use they/them and ae/aer :3

And. Oh dear. Oh wow. That's a huge ramble ashjgbsjdfh!! but I mean, you did ask ME, The Dream Guy, to talk about Dream The Guy, so like, yyyyyyup yup yup. But still, I'M SO SORRY THIS IS SUCH A LONG POST 😭😭😭😭😭😭

My other headcanons end up being so self-indulgent and "ooc"-ish (smh they make sense in the context of them being other au's) that I didn't feel justified putting them in here cause they're not that justified either, some of my headcanons are just so random, like my headcanon that Killer plays the violin. Why? who knows!! not me!! I have no proof!! but!!

"Sonic Frontiers - Calm After the Storm" (Happy Wholesome Sonic and Tails Wednesday!)

(yes, I am mildly obsessed with Sonic Frontiers. Cut me some slack; Final Horizons just came out and I absolutely lost my mind because of it. Writing with the DLC ending in mind.)

Naturally, SPOILER ALERT! DON'T READ IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS!

Synopsis: "Starfall Islands was a rough journey. Finding himself exhausted after the adventure, Sonic stays with Tails at one of his labs for the night. After all, brothers take care of each other."

————————————————

The sharp glare of the setting sun on the horizon shone bright and piercing in Sonic's eyes, and he blinked hard a couple times before turning his gaze elsewhere. He was kneeling atop the Tornado, with Tails in the pilot's seat, Amy behind him, and Knuckles on the other wing. Their wild adventure at Starfall Islands had finally— at long last— come to a close, and they were heading home.

Well, sort of. They were going to drop everyone off where they needed to go. Knuckles at Angel Island. Amy at her house. Tails was most likely just going to stop at whichever one of his many live-in labs was closest after the stops. Sonic was . . .

Truthfully, Sonic didn't have an actual house he lived in. He much preferred to stay on the move, to keep on exploring, seeking out the next adventure. But sometimes, after his more tiresome trials, he'd go and crash at Tails' place for a few days. It was one of the only places he was comfortable staying at for that long.

Which was good. Sonic had a nagging feeling that that's exactly what he was going to do this time around, too.

The events of Starfall Islands— everything from getting sucked into a giant portal, breaking in and out of cyber space, fighting Titan after Titan and scaling tower after tower, running errands for Koco, to trying to keep up a front the entire time he was deathly sick with the stupid cyber corruption (even though it had come in handy in the end)— had left him more exhausted than he was willing to admit. But thankfully, Tails had known him long enough to know not to question and pester him about how he was feeling. His brother just . . . tended to know. And instead of bringing it up in conversation, he'd do subtle things to help him feel better, without a word. Like bring him something to eat, repair his shoes while he was sleeping, turn off all the alarm clocks in the house so he could sleep in a bit. Things like that.

Sonic appreciated that. A lot.

The sun was out of sight by the time they'd located and arrived at Angel Island. Knuckles said his goodbyes, and even promised to let them know when he was going to leave for his own adventures. It took another half hour to get to Amy's house, where they said more goodbyes and made more promises to keep in contact about Amy's upcoming travel plans.

Tails' closest live-in lab was a ten minute flight from Amy's place, and that flight was taken in a weary but comfortable silence. Without a word, Sonic slipped down into the cockpit to sit behind his younger brother, not bothering to admit that he was feeling a little too exhausted to keep on balancing and clinging to the wing. Tails said nothing, other than shooting a warm, knowing smile over his shoulder at him.

They arrived at the lab. Tails' landing was as smooth and careful as could be. He flew out of his seat and landed on the runway beside the plane, stumbling over his feet just a little bit. Sonic scrambled out of the cockpit and all but fell out onto the pavement beside the fox kit. "You alright?"

Tails smiled through a yawn. "Uh huh. Just tired."

Sonic smiled back, but he couldn't help remembering Sage's words about his friends "not handling their cyber corruption as well as he had." And even though they were all cured of it now, Sonic could still feel the remnants of it. Echoes of pain in his arms. A flash headache that only lasted a few seconds. Occasional numbness in his feet. More scarily, moments where he needed a second to think before remembering something important. What if . . . what if Tails was feeling the same way?

"Are you feeling okay, I mean? I know you . . ."

He trailed off. Tails had picked up a lot of traits from him, one of which was covering up personal problems and pushing through everything without complaint. Sonic didn't much care to break the habit for his own good, but it was . . . concerning to see Tails do the same thing. After all, he'd raised the little guy. It wasn't wrong for him to feel responsible for Tails' wellbeing. It was just somehow jarring when Tails turned and did the same thing to him, as if their roles were reversed.

Tails shrugged. "I'm tired. Ready for a long night of sleep. I think you are, too."

Sonic frowned and opened his mouth— ready to deny the obvious— but Tails just grabbed his arm and pulled him to the door. "C'mon, we're wasting time out here. It's getting cold."

So cold now, numb . . .

He swallowed, pushing the unpleasant memory away. Tails' hand felt just a little too tight on his wrist, like he was partially using the grip as support, but he decided not to say anything.

Maybe it was his turn to take care of his brother without saying anything. Or maybe they could both do it. Simultaneously, because it seemed that was what they both needed tonight.

Tails let go of him after they entered, and stumbled around to turn on a few dim lamps throughout the living room. Sonic just stood by the door for those seconds, watching his brother in a daze until said brother turned and asked, "You want the couch or my room?"

"I— oh, I'll just take the couch." Sonic blinked blearily, looking down and releasing his grip on the nearest counter that he hadn't even realized he was leaning against. He took a single step away from it towards the couch, promptly got a rush of tunnel vision, and crashed onto his knees.

He more heard than saw Tails come hurrying over to him, and saw his worried but determined blue eyes as he hauled him back to his feet and all but dragged him to the couch. "Down ya go," the fox kit mumbled, easing him into the most comfortable corner of the sofa. "Stay there. I'll be back in a few minutes."

Sonic couldn't help a tired, nearly delirious grin as his younger brother left the room. It was truly a strange experience, watching Tails slowly switch roles with him over the years as the responsible caretaker. Not that he himself had become irresponsible, but he was definitely a lot more reckless than Tails. He still remembered the days when Tails was much younger, still remembered cautioning him not to play with sharp objects and not to go too far away from him in case there were Badniks or bullies nearby. Now, Tails worked with chainsaws and pointy things on a daily basis, and was more than capable of defending himself against any and all kinds of danger.

It was crazy how fast the kid had grown up on him. Even though it had been quite a few years.

Tails returned a few minutes later, carefully carrying a plate of hastily prepared food, a glass of water, and a couple pills. "Don't take the meds until after you eat," he instructed, and Sonic chuckled.

"This is a little unfair, don't you think?" he protested. "You need this, too, but you shouldn't have to do it all yourself."

"It's fine," Tails insisted. "I can eat later. I just want you to take it easy."

"I want you to take it easy, too," Sonic pointed out, his tone easy and caring. "Just let me—"

"How about this," Tails cut in. "You eat what I got you. You take your medicine. Then I'll let you make me something."

"Hm. You drive a hard bargain." Sonic sniffed dramatically, making Tails giggle. "But fine."

He obeyed his little brother's commands (that sounded weird). They talked as he ate. Shared their experiences on the islands, both the fun ones and the not-so-fun ones. Cracked a few bad puns. As he finished up, Sonic nudged Tails to the other side of the couch and grabbed another blanket to tuck around him. Tails rolled his eyes with a tiny smile as Sonic left to go return the favor.

He found and made a quick, simple meal he knew Tails liked. He got the glass of water (although he had to ask where the medicine cabinet was). He sat back down on the couch, and they resumed their quiet conversation.

Sentences and words began slurring together. Sonic dimly realized that the medicine Tails had chosen must've been both a painkiller and a depressant. That was completely fine; he hadn't properly slept in weeks, and he had a feeling Tails hadn't, either. He wondered if it was even possible for him and the others to have slept in their ghostly, digitized forms.

The stretches of silence between words grew longer and longer, until it took over the room entirely. A warm, peaceful sense overcame the mood. At some point, Tails fumbled to press some buttons on the side of the couch, and the lamps switched off. Of course Tails had installed controls like that, Sonic thought in sleepy amusement. His eyes drifted closed, though one ear twitched when he heard:

"G'night, Sonic. I love you."

He smiled without opening his eyes. "G'night, lil bro. Love you, too."

[H/C] BTS If You Tease Them in Public

A/N: This is a shorter drabble piece/headcanon as I have a busy week this week! Genre: 18+ (Minors DNI!), Smut/Suggestive How would BTS react if you teased them in public?

Masterlist

Kim Seokjin

He'd get a bit flustered if you tried to tease him in public. Most of your relationship was wholesome and behind closed doors, but if you tried to bring it into the public eye, he'd get a bit shy. In private when he's in control he's flirtatious, and a bit fun, but if you take the reins, he's a blushing mess.

Especially if you went to just squeeze his ass; something as simple as that can make him practically melt in public. He's definitely a hardcore switch in that sense, he'd give up a bit of dominance if you took it from him. Although he wouldn't show that in public!

"Y/N!" he'd just gasp and turn all red, hiding away shyly.

Secretly, though, he's about to pull you behind some doors and show you what it did to him.

Kim Namjoon

He'd be pissed, but not in the 'I'm genuinely angry at you way', in the 'I'm going to punish you when we get home' way. The entire night he'd be sending daggers at you, even if it was a single comment that you had whispered in his ear. If it was enough to get him riled up and wanting more, he'd be mad that he couldn't have you right then and there. Plus, he'd know you were very aware of what his reaction would be.

"As soon as we're home you're going to get much more than you asked for, baby," He'd whisper in your ear, hand rising a little under your shirt just a bit to tease you back, before going off to what he was doing again.

Min Yoongi

He wouldn't show it, at all. To the point, at first, you weren't even sure if he was phased at all by the teasing. Maybe he didn't get the suggestive nature or notice how you were eating the ice cream, making dead eye contact with him as you did. But by the time you were going home you were pinned right up against the cool metal of the car, him growling angrily into your ear. "You're getting it later." Fic based on this

Jung Hoseok

There was no way you were going to get away with teasing. Moreso- there was no way you were going to win it. He'd tease you right back with ten times more force, both of you pushing the limits of 'How acceptable is this PDA?' It would start with you just touching his shirt, lifting it the tiniest bit with your finger during a quick peck. So he, knowing what you were trying to do, would rest his hand on your lower back. Soon it would turn into a game of who could push the other; whose breaking point would be reached first?

Spoiler Alert: It's yours as soon as his hand started basically going down your pants under the table, reaching close to the straps of your underwear as you just blurted that you had to go to the bathroom, Hoseok followed close behind.

Park Jimin

This man is the king of teasing.

As soon as you tease him, he's going to tease you ten times harder back, making you number one on the annoying PDA couple list. But one thing that really got him was the time you two were hanging out with Taehyung.

There was no room left on the couch, so he sat on the floor in front of you. Soon enough, his head found himself between your thighs. You'd tighten them around his head.

"What, are you into getting crushed by thighs?" You'd tease him.

"Only yours" he would smirk and then put his hands on either side of them, squeezing them.

Kim Taehyung would follow with a gag.

Kim Taehyung

He'd play it off as a silly little joke. You'd tease him once, and he'd laugh it off. You'd tease him twice, and he'd hesitantly laugh it off, but you could tell his facade was shaking a tiny bit, finding it harder to keep his cool more and more. However, he has a threshold that can only take so much before he pins you up against the wall, not giving a single shit about who was watching. "I let you go the first couple of times baby, but this is getting ridiculous" he'd whisper, practically by your ear, reaching down and kissing your neck with a peck, "Stop it before I have to take you into the bathroom and fuck you so loud everyone here will know how you acted tonight."

Jeon Jungkook

He'd be a bit shy at first from the teasing. He's a bit nervous in terms of public affection and would prefer to keep your relationship to yourselves, especially to save him from the teasing of other members. But, once he's more comfortable in the relationship, and you decide to tease him in public, he's a light switch.

Depending on which way you flick him, he can become a needy puddle in your arms in a second. That, or he can pin you up against a wall and tell you to knock it off. It all depends on if you're begging for him, or threatening him.

[erenfox]

Y'all.

Episode 4.

It's the best piece of work Marvel has made after they made IW and Endgame.

spoiler alert 🚨

.

.

.

.

.

.

lemme start off with our favourite Miss Jolly Rancher Unhinged Clock and Victorian-Era HWR Fangirl. I KNEW Ravonna had somehow helped HWR in building the TVA, but him erasing her memories was straight up evil.

Then we come to the absolutely gruesome deaths of Dox and the others. HOLY SHIT MISS JOLLY RANCHER IS AWFUL like she was enjoying every second of Dox and her hunters literally getting crushed to their deaths. B-15 was traumatised, to say the least and you can see on Ravonna and Brad's faces a hint of disgust. But Miss Minutes grinning like that - outright disturbing.

I can't get over OB and Victor fanboying over each other's work - it was so funny yet wholesome.

Now let's talk about Loki and Sylvie. As a diehard Sylki stan you know I am, my fangirling heart was overjoyed seeing these two lovesick ducks working together willingly! I mean, yea, they did have that rather awkward talk in Pie Land (mind you that's it's official name henceforth) but after that they worked together as teammates! Now I must say, I completely agree with Sylvie on snapping on Mobius, because, well, yeah, the multiverse is a bigger priority than pie and I legit don't get why tf antis hate on Sylvie for doing so. Like you hated her for not giving a damn abt the TVA + the multiverse, but now when she stood up to do so y'all are hating on her again?? Like?? Make up ur mind, smh.

Anyways, back to Sylki. Sylvie got stuck in the elevator and the way she and Loki worriedly called out each other's names was so soft! And the "You ok?" trope CAME BACK OMG! THAT PHRASE IS LITERALLY THE BACKBONE OF SYLKI! When I tell you my fangirling heart screamed with joy omg-

The the whole paradox scene which brought Ep 1 back in a circle. I absolutely loved the way our Loki realised what he had to do and went real slow to prune his past self just so that Past Loki could get a glimpse of Sylvie; which would then lead him to be more determined than ever to go look for her. And I quite literally died on Sylvie being confused af as to wtf she just witnessed.

Then there's the telephone scene. OH MY GOD it was literally OB all this time when fans were out here speculating it was Kang or someone lmao. Both Loki and Sylvie yelling simultaneously to turn the security thing off gives out so much Couple Vibes, I absolutely loved it AAHHAHAH-

AND. THE. BRAD. SCENE. OOF.

our friendly neighbourhood lovesick ducks teaming up to enchant Brad was just too good. Loki in his hot, creepy voice luring Brad into a dark area while Sylvie very swiftly just straight up grabbing his face from the back - pure horror. Absolutely loved it, 10/10. Tho I must say, to do execute elaborate scheme, these two must have done some detailed planning (=more Sylki moments we were robbed off).

BUT THAT ENDING DUCKING MURDERED ME BROO OMG

Can we talk abt Victor's redemption? Man had been portrayed as evil since Quantumania, and has been manipulated by both Ravonna and Miss Jolly Rancher, but at the end of the day, he was a sweetheart. Man fanboys OB and basically became besties with him and Casey, worked together to create the solution to a mess he most certainly didn't want to be a part of, and then himself stepped up to fix the Loom once and for all to prove to everyone (and not let Sylvie's choice of sparing him go to waste) that tho he contained HWR's DNA, he wasn't HWR - he was a far better person HWR could have ever been. Seeing him getting spaghettified was tragically heart-wrenching, man deserved so much better :(

BUT HOLY SHIT DID THAT ONE HECK OF A GODDAMN CLIFFHANGER LEFT ME SPEECHLESS LIKE WTF WAS THAT?? U can't just kill off a character who had redeemed himself, and then make our main character and his homies watch literally EVERYTHING THEY WORKED SO HARD FOR GET ANNIHILATED TO THE GROUND-

But we know our God of Mischief isn't dead, and so are his homies eheheh.

However the looks on everyone's face was tragic. Loki knew all was lost and had tears in his eyes. Sylvie looked like she had accepted defeat and her death. Mobius and OB were in denial, refusing to believe that Victor was dead. Casey and B-15 looked horrified, as they realised what was to come now upon them.

Tldr, this episode was an ABSOLUTE BANGER. IM READY TO CLAIM IT SUPERIOR THAN ENDGAME, come and fight me. Its a top cinematic piece, and the suspense to Ep 5 is eating me up.

Ig i should go and study for the 4 tests this week before ep 5 ;-;

Skip and Loafer: Ah, Youth!

Hi everyone! It's been a while!

I've just finished watching Skip and Loafer, a slice of life anime... It's been a while since I've watched a slice of life anime, especially when it's so relatable for me. I have gone through that period of youth with certain thinking, meeting new people with different personalities, and just simply enjoying life!

Although our youth journeys may not have involved certain famous figures or having a specific large scale event such as cultural event(in Japan), I've come to find a few things in common for us, simply as adolescents (whether becoming one, now or past) and as humans through this anime.

*Again, SPOILER ALERT!!*

Our story begins with Mitsumi, a girl who is living in the city, Tokyo, for the first time. The moment you see her, you'd just root for her to the end, because of her funny, cheerful vibes and most importantly, her willingness to pursue achieving her goals relentlessly. I admired her for that, to become a government official to solve the problem of depopulation in not just her hometown, but also the other parts of Tokyo. Sounds big, right?

And then, we have the other end of the spectrum, Shima, who doesn't even know about what he'll do in the future, and with his 'whatever' attitude. Although he seems to be a 'happy-go-lucky' person, deep down it was revealed that he had some unhealed trauma in the past as a child actor. He seldom talk to others about his relationship with his family to even his closest friends. So, he doesn't really know how to interact with people, especially his family.

So, when you put this 2 together, you'll get the both of them being freaking wholesome without having to be a couple!!!

(Honestly that's my favourite part, that a guy and a girl can have fun without having any romantic relationship, and that the plot os not just the girl getting all flustered and nervous while interacting with the guy. They act normal and relaxed around each other, and that's something! Please, this is just my own thoughts and opinion, so please don't attack me on this!!)

Jk, the thing is, they are pretty open to learning about and from each other. They also to begin to understand each other more through resolving of conflict, one that Shima had 'never had since elementary school'. I mean, who would want to admit that they're wrong first with their relationship and their impression at stake? That was what Shima admired about Mitsumi- She has the guts to do whatever she feels right, and she has a good moral compass, so technically that is a good thing.

She also has a goal in mind (please refer to the top if confused), which is also something Shima is envious about. With his past, he finds it hard to be able to do anything freely, and that any way of saying 'no' to people's request is a form of 'rebellion', which would offend people and result them in doing mean stuff to him. That happened in the past, and he didn't want to do it again. Not when his model friend is having such a successful career. He wishes to have the same freedom as Mitsumi did. But because of his habits of doing whatever people wanted, he couldn't seem to being himself to think about what he wanted from himself, not even being able to 'answer the question of what is his favorite food'. So you definitely know that Shima had a character development when he finally declared his thought, that he 'likes going to high school'. That made me realize how much he'd grown as a person, and finding his identity and possibly in the future, what he wants to do.

And hopefully, whether he succeeds or not, Mitsumi would bring him to a place to eat.

On Mitsumi's side, she seems like the person you would definitely want to be friends with. Kind, caring, empathetic and hilarious(on her part, really) and relentlessly pursuing her dreams. My respect for her shot up so much when she told Shima that 'it's ok if I trip or fall, because I know how to get up!' She is the kind of girl who is almost the opposite of Shima-open to people, close to her family members, studious and focused, open-minded... you can name a few!

However, one similarity and that same pitfall she had was running around and taking up all the responsibilities. When this becomes too much for her, she breaks down and cries, because of the stresses of not being able to save every single promise from everyone who requested her of something. Shima sees Mitsumi when she was in her worst state, when they were preparing for the upcoming Cultural festival, and that she couldn't get her comments to her classmates because she was busy with other student council work. While Mitsumi wishes to accomplish many goals, she has the tendency to take too much, and when happens, she gets too stressed. Shima understands this, and wanted to comfort her. By bringing her through the steps of his part, while singing 'My Little Rose ', Shima is doing his part to include Mitsumi into their class's play, which she had been so out of touch from, to assure her that what she had done would not spoil the relationship she has with her classmates, if she talks to them and understands where they're coming from. This little part of the play was shown do much on the screen, but it did show one thing- that their friendship is tied between the trust and fun of 2 people.

So after all this blabbering, what now? What has this got to do with youth? Why do i have to sigh at the start of this blog??

Well, Skip and Loafer took me on an adventure or a historical nonfiction of youth, and the depiction was real and raw. Sudden moments and thoughts weaved together shows as who we are as a person. As adolescents, we were in search of our identities, our dreams and aspirations, our relationships and connections, and the memories built from it. See, it's like crocheting from a ball of yarn to form a scarf. Something that you'd hold on dear to. And that's what Skip and Loafer tells us about. Keep an open mind, experience the bittersweet taste of youth, and keep going.

That's it! It close to midnight on my side of the Earth. So to the person reading this, whenever you are, wherever you are, have a great day, and a great night!!

2022 BL ROUNDUP PART 3

Hey y'all, I've seen everyone doing their top 22, 20, 15, 10, and 5 BLs of the year and I didn't want to do a ranking! I just want to do a quick rundown of everything I watched and how I feel about it now! This is gonna be multiple posts! But I'll post them all at the same time.

The one Pinoy BL, Japanese, and Taiwanese BLs I watched this year + some honorable non-BL mentions.

Mr. Unlucky Has No Choice But To Kiss! (Japan) I actually didn't finish it. I think I had 1 or 2 eps left. It was cute, from what I remember, but it wasn't like outstanding. I loved literal take on polar opposites. The main pair was very cute and there was a huge penguin. I might finish it someday. IDK.

Old Fashion Cupcake (Japan). My fave Japanese BL of the year. Cute food dates, pining idiots, company men, totally normal age gap. It was a great series. I loved every single thing about it. 10/10. Would recommend everyone watch it.

Takara-kun to Amagi-kun (Japan). Loved it. It was a sweet story. The mains were SUPPOSED to be carrying on a secret relationship but they were trash at hiding it. It was very obvious they were together, they spent damn near all their time together. The kids at their school just minded their own business which is probably why they were able to keep the secret so long. I love those boys.

Cherry Magic the Movie (Japan). Someone leaked the movie like a month ago and I ran to go watch it. It was really cute! So sweet! AND WHOLESOME! I missed Adachi and Kurosawa. I wasn't expecting for it to be so soft! AND THEY GOT MARRIED (spoiler alert)

Gameboys 2 (Philippines). 10/10. I love my boys so much. Gameboys is seriously underrated and it annoys me. Great lgbtq representation, excellent support from side characters, relevant discussions (coming out, LDR, toxic family members, trauma). The mains have beautiful chemistry. Like what more could you ask for??

Plus & Minus (Taiwan). I dropped this and came back to it. The series is good but the conflict towards the end felt completely unnecessary. The main couple was really cute. We love a good besties to lovers story. The side couple was cute. We also love a good single dad falling for the local playboy story. Also that series had a TON of cameos from actors in other Taiwanese BL series.

About Youth (Taiwan). Oh it was so cute. Both couples had great chemistry and the storylines were interesting. The main couple had more of a puppy love thing going on, they became friends first and then boyfriends. They openly supported each other and dealt with annoying family members together. The side couple kind of had to deal with a rebound issue since one of them was in a relationship right before getting together. I think it was a good watch.

Honorable mentions:

Kei x Yaku: Dangerous Buddies. It was a bromance but very queer. One of the mains was a canon bisexual. They lived together, were very protective of each other, and went bonkers when the other was hurt. They calmed each other down and worried about each other a lot. They had insane chemistry and were very much vibing through the whole series.

Heartstopper (UK). Not technically a BL but a queer English series. Very cute with excellent LGBTQ representation. 10/10. It was picked up for another 2 seasons.

Young Royals 2 (Sweden). I liked it. My only issue was that it focused more on the het couple than the actual main pair. I didn't like either of the characters from the het couple. It featured a closeted lesbian and I wanted more from her storyline because she was in love with her best friend. I wanted more of everyone except the het couple idc.

Good Girls Season 1: episode 1

I forgot how funny this show was. The pilot episode is such an excellent example of a good pilot that it makes me want to message my old film/TV professor and tell him to watch.

I love how distinct and real all of these characters are, especially the three main women lead. The pilot really shows how different thet are to each other,but still how supportive and loving they are.

DEAN: So I don't remember my exact feelings on him before, but I know I hated him. It was a couple of years removed from my own experience with cheating, but it was enough for me to dislike him. This time around, now that I'm older, I still heavily dislike him, but even more so. Whether he realizes it, he truly is weaponizing his incompetence and trying so hard to appear sad and panic to keep Beth. But Beth is not having it.

Rio's introduction is so funny because he's clearly dangerous, but he carries this ease to him. To be fair, he's underestimating these women right now so he can act the way he's acting because why should he be worried about some Stepford wives? Also he's so fucking hot. I grew up in a neighborhood that had guys like this, so normally I wouldn't bat an eye, but Manny's presence and voice is doing it for me.

Annie is such a fuck-up. My god. Like I know, Beth is her own type of crazy, but Annie really drops the ball from time to time.

Stan and Ruth are wholesome and continue to be marriage goals. I know that changes a bit in season 3-4 but I haven't seen those yet so I'm not counting those.

"I made 300 cupcakes in one night, and they were nut and gluten-free." I don't bake, but I'll believe her that it must have been hard.

I forgot how much of a creep and a rapist Boomer is. He deserves to die, but of course, she would go to jail.

Also, a side note, I love how Beth, despite how terrified she might be, is always willing to do what it takes to survive, especially when she's pushed. Just the kitchen scene alone, the way she was staring at Rio. She was obviously terrified, but she was so alert and calm compared to her friends, like not losing sight of a cobra before it strikes. I wouldn't be surprised if she was mentally going through ways to get out of it. And she did it again with Boomer threatening them. That calm focus before she bashed his head with the Jack Daniel's. It's the very thing that attracts Rio and continues their relationship throughout the show.

The pilot is truly is a good example of storytelling! So fun and refreshing.

(I'm considering writing my reactions as I watch each episode. Maybe do a better character analysis. We'll see.)

OH AND THE SCENE THAT FOLLOWS! “DADDY” “MR SHELBY” “I NEED TO SEE YOU” EXPLAIN!!! I LOVE IT!!

I hope the below answers your question?? Let me know if not!

Short note: I don't anticipate writing daddy kink involving Thomas Shelby for multiple reasons further explained below, but fatherhood is such a part of his self-identification it's interesting testing that boundary with a provocative and hurt-intentioned Daddy thrown in here and there...

I write Lizzie calling him Mr Shelby to mock and remind him of his role and when he's operating outside the bounds of that. However, he gets a kick out of it, because he always gets a kick out of people calling him by a title generally, no matter what it is. Signs of rank! She's using it here because he's laying down work rules for her?? immediately after he's gone completely off the wall thinking he's teasing her into sex (while he's struggling to get hard) but she's thinking he's working himself up into killing her?? And then thrown up for fifteen minutes straight, and climbed fully clothed into a cold bath?? Yes, Mr Shelby, sir, issue your orders.

Lizzie's quip at presenteeism is an anachronism/contemporary joke that some old-fashioned bosses don't support working from home. Tommy's thinking well i can't fuck you long distance/my influence reaches far but not that far

Then the "daddy" - earlier in this scene when Lizzie's shouting at him she brings up Charlie and uses the phrase "tell him what daddy's doing with his big fucking gun". She's using Daddy in the same way as she does Mr Shelby, reminding Tommy he's operating outside of the bounds of his title, in this instance as a clean-living wholesome father, but she is definitely using it with the same sexual layer that Tommy's currently applying to his big fucking gun to heighten the inappropriateness of his sexual/threat action with a non sexual/all-threat item whilst also now being a man who might have to explain his immoral/dubious actions one day to a child - including the accompanying reminder that he's now a daddy alone and hence solely responsible for that child. Her angry/mocking/desperate use of the title Daddy gives Tommy a shockingly big kick in multiple directions across multiple sore spots, some sexual and many shame-based. This 'kick' is what he's explicitly mentioning when he says "I like the other one better from you" / what? / "daddy". Lizzie tries to rewind her use of the term into a shaming, not a sexualisation, by 'can you imagine how people will look at you if I call you Daddy at the office? Inappropriateness alert!' but he's just miffed and amused at this point and needles her with 'well, come back to the office and let's try'.

I don't headcanon anything for him that gets into daddy play at all, for multiple reasons relating to the abuse of trust inflicted on him by all of his caregivers and his own fear that he'll fail at single fatherhood because the things he has to do. Adding a layer of sexual play into this just wouldn't work for him. And because of this, Lizzie's use of a throwaway Daddy to shame him for inappropriate sexualised conduct which happens to hit him square on that complex intersection of sex and pride and shame and responsibility and trauma? He got a very confusing hot flush, put it that way, and that in turn makes him provocative back at her in a way that also pokes curiously at his own reaction.

And lastly 'I need to see you' is him alluding to two things. The first is literal: literally seeing Lizzie in his office is now seeing normality, stability. He didn't like Polly sending her off because Lizzie would have made things seem normal. I imagine he went back into work a couple of times or tried to phone her at the office for information, and now not only is his wife dead but he can't find Lizzie (who as a secretary pretty much operates for him like our contemporary iPhones do XD) and no one's quite explaining why or where she is and keep deflecting him, and he is desperate for normality. The second allusion is referential: that use of 'seeing' where it means 'having sex', where seeing a person is having sex with the person. Tommy knows it's going to be fucked up after Tatiana, and while he could be abstinent in his grief for a long time, the fact Tatiana's going to force him to break that seal means he won't be able to go abstinent again easily. (falling off the abstinence wagon) So, he wants a partner who isn't playing with him or for whom he has to perform, sex goes back to something he chooses and something he initiates, but that isn't a whore because he's had loving sex now, he's felt so wanted with Grace, and instinctively he knows going to a prostitute who is tired and doesn't care might do him some damage. He wants his easy sexual companionship where he isn't going to feel worse for having sought it out.

it seem so 😔 it's amazing to hear he's recovering well enough to write a whole show and do a whole tour! i have a feeling it won't be filmed, so it would be great to hear any of your experiences if you get a chance to see the show. (maybe you can send me a summary? i'm sure he'll talk more about it all then, given the synopsis for the tour :')) off the back of sean, rhod, and janey godley, i was just thinking about how the generation of comedians i grew up with are hitting more vulnerable years, which is very sobering, but i digress...

here are the tour dates for anyone who missed the announcement!

here on panelshowsource? because i was busy and not online :)

sorry anon, you sent this a couple days after his bday and i don't think i'll do belated posts. i actually wanted to do something for it, but i was just busy with life and didn't get enough of a head start (i usually need 2–3 days prep time). next time!

yes i totally agree! i like daisy on the show because she clearly loves music (the way she's always hyping up the identity parade artists is honestly really wholesome and appreciated) and she is a riot — even if she's exaggerating, better that someone is exaggerating having fun than not. i guess that's where daisy and jamali balance each other out, some episodes lmaooo greg is a textbook ham, so daisy getting such a kick out of his RIDICULOUS jokes — which makes greg so happy — plus greg and noel already having such a comfortable (and often silly) rapport makes them such a solid 3. greg and jamali have definitely gotten more comfortable with each other, too. they're a fucking random bag of people but i think it works! that show is a hot mess of good, goofy vibes

yeah, sometimes! just depends on the interviewee. last new one i listened to was probably ed byrne? i was just listening to a john kearns one since (spoiler alert for this ask post) someone asked for a collection folder for john — it's a sweet one. to be fair, john is just a sweet man. i'm not crazy about richard herring — he's fine — so sometimes i'll quit mid-way if richard is making it too much about himself or complaining too much (you know how he is). but in general i don't think i've missed anything significant bc i got bored or skipped an ep. do you recommend one?

sure! they're honestly one of my faves ever. obsessed with them. i was just thinking about what chaos jimmy + jon + joe + roisin are, generally the episodes when joe is filling in for sean. jimmy already loves a derailing, and you can tell he gets such a kick out of both joe and roisin (same way he gets a kick out of rob beckett, honestly), and jon really lets loose with those three — they're SO stupid hahahaha like this has to be one of the most random, stupid episodes ever i love it so much

it will be my pleasure doing research for such a gifset 😈

i have added him to the collection folder!

Portgas D. Ace & Lunaliel Nemo in a Nuthsell!

Both are bonkers party-animals. Both are fire, one is literally hot and hot-headed, the other is metaphorically hot and has a bad temper XD

Most wholesome & funny. Pranks all day, chillaxing in the sun, wild races across the sea, lotsa food and shenenigans.

She is the brain, he is the muscle!!!

Tsundere-Alert for Nemo!

Wholesome loving BF-Alert for Ace!

Ace tied to teach Nemo that she doesn't need to start every sentence with "The hell" or "The shit" - Who would've thought that he'd be the one to teach someone manners one day, eh?

Both are a very good influence on each other.

Unconditional Love & Friendship

Firecracker & Cheeks (referring to cheeky-one)

He is flirty but shy, she is acting tough but is soft.

She hates being called cute, he loves to tell her what he thinks

Nemo helped Ace to stop thinking badly about himself ever again!

Super supportive couple!

Powerhouses!

Cuddlebears

And here we have that beautiful resemblance - Whenever someone/anyone dares to use the forbidden word on Nemo, compared to when Ace accidentally uses that word on her: 

But somehow it's okay! In the beginning when the two were only good friends, Ace called her cute by accident, resulting in the Space Pirate to be mad at him for hours. Compared to others who actually used that very word on Nemo as well, (also by sheer accident and no bad intent) - she didn't snap at the Fire Fist as much as she snapped at others. There's no limit to the rage that can hail down upon you if you'd dare to point out that she is "cute, adorable or dainty" in any way! Nemo wants to be strong! She wants to have muscles and be huge! She wants to punch faces... and she can't do it, because she's physically very, very weak. Her guns solve the "punching-issue" but it's not the same as having the ability to actually use physical force. It's simply not as satisfying!

In fact, it happened only on a very few occasions that Ace did call her cute, and every time it happened, she was sulking and pouting like a small child throwing a tantrum for hours on end. Compared to others, she didn't try to shoot Ace into the event horizon of the nearest black hole! XDDDD

In fact, Ace sometimes thought, that Nemo is cute especially when she's angry like that! But he never dared to say that out loud, knowing that if he did so, Nemo might change her mind and will be as furious at him, as she'd be to others! ;)

"Request #1: Custody Arrangements."

Set in the "Of Headaches and Heartaches" universe.

Original Prompt/request from Taru_lee_fly

"....a small wholesome peak into Evan’s arrangement with Venessa and Luis when it comes to Gregory? 🥹 Like does Evan see Greg once a week? Twice a week? Etc etc..."

--

It was the end of his twelve-hour shift. Evan was bone-weary from head-to-toe. His feet ached from standing on them for hours on end, and his stomach grumbled from a lack of food. He smelled like fry grease and the beer that a customer threw at him in a fit of drunken rage. His coworkers commiserate all the way to their respective cars, but all Evan could think about was the upcoming weekend. 

His boss had allowed him to take a weekend off every other week. Which was generous of him, given that their busiest days are Friday-Sunday, but Evan was not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. 

He had one stop to make before going home. Evan made sure to clean up the day before, so he should be all good in that department. And he even remembered to go grocery shopping as well.

In spite of his exhaustion, Evan couldn’t help the excitement from taking over. It buzzed through him, keeping him alert. By the time he entered the apartment’s parking lot, he felt like he'd gotten a full night’s rest (not really but he couldn’t tell the difference, bounding towards the building). 

He passed Luis’ car on his way in, which made him even more eager. It’d been a while since he’d seen his old mall buddy. 

Evan knocked on the door a little harder than necessary. His son was halfway out the door before it opened fully. Gregory giggled. 

Evan couldn’t help his eyes misting up, especially because he was seeing his son for the first time in forever (read: two days. He took Gregory to the park a couple days ago). He scooped him up, peppering his chubby face with kisses. 

Vanessa laughed, standing in the doorway with her arms crossed. “Did you miss your dad?” 

Gregory nodded. “I always do,” he answered. 

Evan and her exchange a knowing look. At the end of the weekend, they’d be having this exchange in reverse. With Gregory clinging to Vanessa instead of him, and he’d laugh it off (knowing that his son’s heart was big enough for all of them). 

He bounced Gregory, making him squeal. “May I come inside for a moment? I saw that Luis was here, and I-”

Vanessa interrupted him. “Of course.” She stepped aside, letting them in. “Uh. Sorry about the mess.” She followed him to the living room. “ Someone decided to do arts and crafts in the living room.”

Evan frowned. “Gregory,” he started. 

“I wish it was Gregory,” Vanessa said. She looked pointedly at Luis who was seated at the coffee table, a bottle of glitter glue in hand. 

He looked up at them. “Hey, Evan. Long time, no see.” If he’s aware of his girlfriend’s ire, he doesn’t say anything about it. 

“How have you been?” Evan asked, sitting on the couch. 

They spent the next hour chatting. He watched the sun set from his place on the couch. Gregory growed heavier, sinking into his hold. 

Vanessa left the room and came back with a Freddy-themed backpack. “He picked this out,” she said. 

Evan suddenly felt bad. “How much was it?” He tried his best to support his son in every way he can, especially monetary as he knows things can add up. He patted his pockets with his free hand. “I don’t have much on-”

Vanessa waved her hands. “Nothing. It was a spur of the moment type of thing.”  

“Are….are you sure?” He asked. “I know that those backpacks can be expensive.”

“It was on sale,” Luis explained. He was scrubbing the coffee table with a rag. The glitter glue he spilled earlier was putting up one hell of a fight. 

“Ah.” Evan forced himself to calm down. Even though he knew that Luis and Vanessa wouldn’t hold it against him, he couldn’t help but worry that he wasn’t doing enough. As his father, he should be doing more. Right?

“Is something wrong?” Vanessa asked. She fidgeted with the ends of her sleeves. 

Evan thought of suppressing everything, but he knew from experience that it all comes back eventually. Besides, he was half-convinced that Maria would materialize anytime he went through a crisis (small or otherwise). 

“I…” he trailed off, unsure of how to start. Vanessa and Luis waited patiently, though the latter of the two kept cleaning the table. “I feel like I’m not doing enough.”

Vanessa was quick to respond. “You’re doing the best you can.”

And that somehow, doesn’t make Evan feel better. But he knew her heart was in the right place, so he just smiled and nodded his head. 

She visibly deflated, frowning. “That didn’t make you feel better, did it?”

“No but thank you for trying. I appreciate the effort.” And he did, honestly. That was more effort than his family ever put in while he was growing up. “I think it all comes back to Maria.” The guilt he felt for not being there for her will haunt him for the rest of his life. 

Vanessa tensed but remained otherwise relaxed. A better response from last time Maria was brought up. 

“I know that my opinion doesn’t matter here, but I think you are a great father. You know, given the circumstances.” Luis shrugged, looking down at the coffee table.  “Too many parents give up, but you haven’t. I think that has to count for something, right?”

Evan hadn’t thought about it like that. He’d come across many deadbeat parents, some worse than others, but the one thing that tied them all together was their lack of effort or participation. He smiled at his son who slept soundly, pressed to his father’s chest. “And I guess it doesn’t matter as long as Gregory’s taken care of.”

“Exactly,” Vanessa agreed. “And I promise you that, if I needed money for Gregory, I would either pick up an extra shift or ask you for it. I didn’t mean to make you feel bad.”

Evan jerked, causing his son to groan in his sleep. “Wait, I didn’t mean to make you feel bad. I just was worried that I wasn’t paying enough child support. I know children can be expensive and I-”

“Evan,” Vanessa interrupted. He looked at her. “You didn’t make me feel bad. I can only imagine how hard this is for you, and I wouldn’t want to make it any worse. And yes, taking over care for a small child is expensive, but we’re doing just fine. Your support helps plenty.” She jabbed a thumb in Luis’ general direction. “And it’s not like Luis doesn’t spoil Gregory whenever he gets a bonus.” She laughed, and it was such a comforting sound that he found himself relaxing. “I promise you, your son is happy.”

Evan nodded to himself. “Thank you,” he murmured. “I needed to hear that.”

They say their goodbyes, and Evan left with his son and Freddy-themed backpack in tow. 

That weekend was spent playing games, baking cookies (for a touch too long. The cookies come out hard as rocks), and spending as much time together as possible. 

At bedtime, he tucks Gregory in, and reads to him from the same storybook Maria used to. When that doesn’t tire him out, Evan tells his son stories about their life together as a family before it all fell apart. About how beautiful and kind and wonderful his mom was, and how much she loved Gregory.

When that didn't tire him out, Evan resorted to telling his son how loved he was. Not just by him, but by Vanessa and Luis as well. He weaved their kind deeds into a fairytale. 

(Gregory might not be able to understand everything that had happened in the past year, and none of them are keen on telling him until he’s older. But Gregory was old enough to understand kindness and compassion, so that was what he’d focus on for now.)

He told a tale of a queen and king taking in a prince from a faraway land. 

His son listened through most of it, but exhaustion finally won out. Evan finished the story. “And they lived happily, ever, after.” Kissing his son’s head, he turned the lamp off. “Goodnight, baby.”

The next day, Sunday, Evan took Gregory back. He took his time, though. Not that he could drop him off before Vanessa was home from work. So, he took Gregory to a park for a little bit, and then to the local ice cream parlor. Which he seemed to already be familiar with, greeting the owner when they ordered. 

And then, the time that he dreaded every single time came. 

As soon as he spotted her, Gregory raced to Vanessa. “Mama ‘Nessa!” She scooped him up just like he did a couple days earlier, and he threw his arms around her neck. “Missed you,” Evan heard his son murmur. 

It should make his heart hurt, but it doesn’t. He smiled, exchanged a few words with Vanessa, and returned to his car. 

His son was happy and healthy, and that was more than he could ever ask for.
