HEYYYY!! how are you?? i hope you’re doing well ❤️❤️
i was wondering if you could do a headcanon/story where reader is like the daughter of Dracule Mihawk but like she(or gender neutral) never met her mom, so when she was growing up Boa Hancock was like their cool auntie that she learned how to be a woman (doing makeup,painting nails, finding her style ect.)
ONLY IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE THO, BTW I LOVEE YOUR WRITING 💕💕
HIII IM DOING GOOD ANON!! You dear? :)
i do female reader dw!! I’ll be using she/her as well, for reference
Tumblr media
Awhh dadhawk <33
AUNTBOAAUNTBOAAUNTBOAAA!! She’d be the BEST most SPOILING wine aunt EVER🍷💄
Of course it’s alright honey! Alsooo TYSM!! I’m so glad you enjoy 😭💓💓
Being mihawk’s daughter has a lot of perks and literally no down slides. actually I half way take that back. The only down slide is that there’s a target on your head for those who are crazy enough to come for you. But that’s like a mere 00.1% and even then just because they come for you doesn’t mean they’ll get to you 🤡
especially since your the NUMBER ONE swordsman’s daughter.
Also this is really random but you probably meet zoro eventually, perona as well, they obviously stay with you for some time so perona and you likely get close. I imagine you would introduce her to boa and the three of you become a trio. You and Perona are her adorable nieces and boa is your doting, beautiful and totally awesome auntie :3
don’t get me wrong mihawk is a awesome father. He seems like a very responsible man and that he would not leave you out in the cold at the cost of his own life. He spoils you just as equally as boa does and although he’s not the most trusting man on earth, he wouldn’t dare break the bond you two have when he can’t replace it with your actual mother. At this point not that you wanted to.
Never meeting your mom may have taken a toll on your mental health at first, but not to worry! Awesome aunt boa to the rescue!!
The chances of you meeting boa we’re actually very slim, whether you know it or not. As I said Mihawk doesn’t easily trust plus you probably met at a warlord meeting where he has to take you along for one reason or another.
You saw boa and naturally, thought she was very pretty. Mihawk is rather reserved too so you probably don’t see people often in general (til you get older). Therefore, seeing such a ethereal woman made you instantly admire her. You immediately wanted to get to know her—and, luckily for you, she took an interest in the girl who’s mihawk’s daughter!
now idk what you did but she started the conversation, and whatever you replied made her think you weren’t so bad! You two chatted some more and after figuring out you had no mother figure she took it upon herself to raise a cute girl such as yourself to be a good woman. She didn’t exactly want to be viewed as your mother..that would relate her too closely to mihawk, a man, for her liking. So! She’ll be the cool and classy wine aunt instead! 🍷💋
you love your dad, he does his best to raise you as a single father and pirate/warlord/worlds best swordsman. And you truly do appreciate him! But when Boa bashes him for being a man her insults are low key so funny you can’t help but laugh 🗿 (hc that Boa would be good at roasting people on the spot :3)
boa being the coolest aunt she is, she takes you to lavish places (that she rented so she wouldn’t have to bear being in the presence of those indisputable critters society calls men), gets you the most high quality makeup (that her tribe handcrafts—yes they make they’re own it’s a hc of mine), does monthly over the phone (in person when you can) mental check ins (because you love your dad but again, he’s a man, and there’s some things about women men won’t get—vice versa too of course <3)
womanly hour!~ well more like hours, you spend the whole day with boa whenever you can, she’s makes a magnificent aunt and literally never says no to you. She’s like to you how she is to luffy but less delusional platonic <3 you two go shopping and pick out clothes together, her tribe of course also gifts you all the cute clothes you could ever want (again, handcrafted) because boa adores you and they adore boa!—which means they adore you! 💕 You and the Kuja 100% get along and see eye to eye on how spectacular Hancock-Sama is~ 🥰
when your older you probably go over to visit her more often and maybe even on your own! Mihawk trusts that by then he’s trained you enough, plus i think he would have his certain set of rules but not be too strict of a dad.
teaching you how to be a proper woman with Boa 101 ;} only if you want to tho! She’ll ensure your not out here acting like some monkey—surely your not! (unless you are 🤷‍♀️) Still, she teaches you basic lady manners. :) More than anything she knows women is NOT the problem, so instead of going “keep your legs closed ☝️🤓” she says “If a man looks at you lower than your stomach, kick him in that area 😉😘” - Boa Hancock (the woman we trust💪)
AND you already know she’s gonna teach you how to kick as hard a she can 😤😮‍💨👌 which ngl by the time your older your sure to be a master in many Haki’s. You may even have conquer’s 🤷‍♀️ I wouldn’t doubt it you got Mihawk blood in you :P
Growing up Boa has constantly been warning you of men and they’re vile ways. When you become of age she’ll tell you what happened to her (that’s how much she trusts you 💗💗) and you’ll know what she means right away. She will always look out for you but gives you tips on things just in case, and if you ever feel unsafe, don’t hesitate to call her or take a trip to the island of women! The entirety of the Kuja tribe will lay down they’re lives in an instant for Hancock-sama’s lovable little niece <33
I’ve been mentioning this throughout but her taking you to the island of women definitely happens. You love it there and everyone loves you. You have so many Aunts and sisters there it’s not even funny. 😃 You adore each and everyone of them though, just as they do you. You get only the finest of treatment from them and you might as well be one of the Boa sisters. You get all you can eat premium food, the most elegant clothes tailored to your exact size and tastes, you even have your very OWN room in the Palace! Sandersonia and Marigold dote on you just as much as Hancock does the four of you very much do spend a lot of time together. 😊
The Boa sisters/the Kuja tribe teaches you the kuja tribe/survival skills personally. They start with bow and arrow and eventually moving on to haki and hand to hand combat. Now, Mihawk might have already covered this but they’re going over it again 😄 why? He might’ve missed something! He’s a man! (Btw the Kuja girls 100% ask you questions about men no holding back) Anywho, I’m sure you’d do it again even if you know it already because 1) practice 😋 and 2) who wouldn’t want to spend more time with the Kuja pirates?!
💖💖
These girls are seriously awesome 💓 (this low key became a Mihawk diss track written by Hancock but he’ll live- LOL 😂😂🗿)

My Irondad fic recs!
I thought of doing this because why not? Admittedly, I'm not reading as much fanfiction as I did a couple years ago, but some fics have changed my life entirely. In case I forgot one, I'll add it later!
I would’ve organized this in a bullet list, but Tumblr hates me and invented a character limit for that. So this is going to be long and will be under the cut. Anyway, let’s do this!
Rare and Sweet As Cherry Wine by loubuttons – I've mentioned this one before, but this fic right here was what inspired me to write my own Irondad works. One very particular detail I like about it is how it portrays Maria, Tony's mother. It's not what I usually see in other fics about Tony's childhood, since they tend to make Howard the big bad parent. Of course, this is because I personally related to it, as I don't believe in the "bad parent vs. good parent". I also like that it praises Edwin Jarvis as the one who looked out for Tony the most. It's pretty realistic and a very melancholic character study, IMO. *TW for abuse and neglect*
You're Always Iron Man by madasthesea – a very short fic but I absolutely love the premise. Takes place after the big battle in Iron Man 2, and Tony finds little Peter again. They have a very endearing interaction. The following chapter is also very cute!
Nothing like a fresh cup of humiliation in the morning by madasthesea – Pure fluff! This one is probably a classic in the Irondad fandom. Tony kisses Peter's forehead without second thought. Shenanigans ensue. It's so adorable and funny. If you just want to read fluff without angst, this one is for you.
when my body won't hold me anymore (where will I go) by madasthesea - I think I heard about this fic thanks to @/irondadfics here on Tumblr, but I might be wrong since I already knew the Nice work, kid series. Anyway, Peter is believed to be dead, so Tony (and the rest of the Avengers team) is mourning him. In reality, Peter is astral projecting. You know, sort of like how Stephen Strange, in his first movie, was fighting a guy in the other dimension while his body on Earth was struggling to live. That's basically what happens. Strange appears, of course, and saves the day. And I pretty much LOVE the presumed dead trope. I don't know why. Maybe it's the angst of it all. *TW for grief/mourning and temporary character death*
The Reason by doctornineandthreequarters – I think I read this one when I was still writing Oh, take me back to the start. I was looking for fics for inspiration, and I found this one. During the Time Heist in Endgame, Tony remembers the reason he's fighting to bring everyone else back. It's very emotional.
Couch Cuddles by happyaspie – Classic sickfic, but with more fluff than anything. I like rereading it when I feel lonely and touch-starved, especially when I'm also sick like Peter.
You’re So Much Like Me (I’m Sorry) by SpaceCowboysFromMars – Irondad + Miles Morales! Peter is an adult in this, and he freaks out when an injured Miles arrives in his apartment. Tony gives him some wisdom about mentoring and parenting. I don’t usually find Irondad stories featuring Miles (and not necessarily a Spider-Verse crossover), so this was a nice discovery. Peter & Miles & Tony is a very underrated trio IMO. *TW for slight gore*
I'm Glad I Have You by punkybunny – Peter has been having a rough time, dealing with loneliness as Aunt May is not home often, and with bullying at school... until he finally has the chance to spend time with Tony. However, the demons don't disappear completely. Obviously, more Hurt/Comfort, lmao. *TW for nightmare/bad dream*
I Want to Trust You by punkybunny – Actually part of a series that, admittedly, I haven't read all the other stories. But even this one is a very interesting concept on its own. This is a Hydra Peter AU, after Peter has been rescued. He gets sick but given his past in Hydra, he thinks Tony is going to get angry. Peter is proven wrong when Tony helps him get better. The ending is very adorable. I'll see if I can read the rest of the series one day. *TW for past abuse and experimentation*
what you think I've done wrong by ironxprince – I don't often read Biodad stories as you all know, but I was, again, looking for inspiration for You keep me searching for a heart of gold, and I stumbled across this one. Basically Peter, as Tony's biological son, finally meets Howard. It goes as well as you think /sarcasm. *TW for physical abuse*
i, in time, will climb my mountain by ironxprince – This one is heavy. Once again, Peter is Tony's bio son, and he's suicidal. Every time Peter attempts suicide, he buys a new plant. Tony doesn't know this, so he's confused as to why there are so many plants in their house. I love this one, but of course, I try to read it when I’m not having a really bad day. *Once again, TW for suicide attempts*
how do you get that lonely (and nobody knows?) by parkrstark – Yeah... another heavy one. Peter attempts suicide but he saves himself before he reaches the ground. With that, he goes to Tony. This ends happily, don't worry. *TW for suicide attempt*
When You Can't Sleep by Emily_F6 – Pretty much Tony comforting a sleepy Peter, who has just had a nightmare about Thanos. Just Hurt/Comfort and domestic fluff. *TW for mention of death*
i get by (but it's eating me alive) by Livinei – Honestly, I think this is the BEST May's Abusive Boyfriend story I've ever read. For one, none of the characters are oblivious nor dismissive of Peter's feelings. May isn't neglectful and Ned actually tries to encourage Peter to tell someone. I also like that Peter isn't completely helpless. I don't usually see those things in other fics with this trope, sadly. And of course, Protective Tony is my weakness. *TW for emotional and physical abuse*
Hold Me Together by An_Odd_Idea – Post-Endgame where Tony is alive, and Peter and Tony are both trying to cope, so they rely on each other. Pure Hurt/Comfort.
A Tremendous Thing by ExpectoPatronum – Possibly one of my favorite Irondad stories EVER. Also post-Endgame with Alive Tony (though the author better explains it in the notes, it's supposed to be part of a series, but this story can be read on its own). There are a lot of references to Charlotte's Web if you're familiar with it. Basically, it's Father's Day and Peter is feeling guilty and out of place at Tony's lake house, even though everyone is readily trying to include him. It's absolutely beautiful and painful.
Hug You I Must by spiderwriting (catch_you_later) – Probably one of the first touch-starved Peter fics I've read. I like how it describes touch-starvation as this "itchy" current in your body, something that makes you anxious. Thankfully, Peter gets his hug later on. Plus there are some Star Wars references (the title probably is one, lol). *There's some minor violence here when Peter is fighting off some bad guys, but not the focus of the fic*
When You're There With No One There To Hold, I'll Be The Arms That Reach For You by Squibbles94 – Another touch-starved Peter fic. But I really like the references to Cast Away. Ironically I saw this movie in the same year the author published this fic (dare I say SHORTLY after it was posted). I also had no idea that Cast Away was entirely about isolation. Gosh, the main character's monologue at the end ALWAYS gets to me... anyway, yeah, the peak of the pandemic was awful to me, so reading fics like this one helped tons. It still does.
I am cold by N/A (orphan account) – Peter tries to visit Tony, but he gets lost in a subway tunnel on a freezing day. Eventually we learn why Peter wanted to see Tony, but overall this is mainly domestic fluff. Everything ends well.
Sorry Pedro by PinkEasterEggs – One of the first Irondad fics I read. Peter has a nightmare about Homecoming (mainly Toomes), but he avoids waking Tony for that reason. But thanks to F.R.I.D.A.Y's protocols, Peter goes to his mentor. Tony is also super soft here and it makes my heart swoon.
you are enough by diaz_evan – Another post-Endgame fic. Arguably I began reading Irondad fics only after Endgame released. Anyway, this one is short, kinda sad but it ends well. It’s Tony’s birthday and Peter feels very anxious about what to get him as a present. Thankfully, he doesn’t need to prove his love for Tony. *TW for panic attack*
Happy Father’s Day, Mr. Stark by downeylove – There are a lot of Father’s Day fics for these two, of course, but this one takes the cake for me. It’s simple but very endearing to me. Tony obviously doesn’t have good memories of this day, but Peter changes that for the first time. It’s really cute. Plus, Pepper is here, and I love her. I wish I could read more of her interacting with Peter. *TW for mentions of alcoholism and past child abuse*
5 Times Peter Didn’t Say He Was Struggling… And The One Time He Did by Bladam_Shevine – Again, an old fic I read years ago. I admit I haven’t re-read it in a while, but I remember enjoying it and even saving it to read offline. It’s basically what it says in the title: Peter struggles in many ways and he initially refuses help. Tony is always there to reassure him he can count on him. Bruce is here if you like him! And MJ helps Peter on one of the chapters as well. The chapters might get heavier as they go, but it ends on a hopeful note. *TW for injury, panic attack, suicide attempt (it doesn’t involve Peter), and depression*
The Good Days and the Bad by SoupGirlLovesSoup - Peter has had a bad day, now he's cuddling with Tony. It takes a while before Peter finally tells him what happened. It gets sad, but it's mostly fluff and it ends hopefully. I love re-reading it when I need the comfort. *TW for mention of suicide attempt, depression, and bullying*
Breathe Again by gwenoakley - Post-Endgame where Tony survives. He's recovering in the hospital and Peter finally reunites with him. Before that, though, we can feel the anxiety and trauma Peter feels. Definitely makes me emotional. It's the ending they deserved.
Well, for now this is it! Again, I might add more fics here. I think I also could make a list of what particular concepts I want to read more in Irondad stories, so maybe you guys could give me your own recs. I might try to resume my habit of reading Irondad fics, because they give me a lot of comfort. Thanks for reading this far! I hope you enjoy any of the stories I included.
(I'm aware some authors here have their accounts on Tumblr, but I didn't want to annoy anyone by tagging them, so yeah 😅)

My Wife
Tumblr media
After a long day he wants nothing more than to just come home to his wife and rest with her. But his wife has other ideas for him to destress and who is he to say no to her?
cw- fem!reader, trying for babies, fingering(Jing Yuan), oral(Welt), choking(Jing Yuan), scent kink(Welt), soft dom(Welt), teasing dom(Jing Yuan), size kink(Jing Yuan)
also my requests are open, please send in some stuff and i will write, most things welcomed <3
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Jing Yuan
Being the General of the Cloud Knights; his job is very difficult, especially with his young retainer Yanquig who loves to do anything that involves swords. Be it battle, be it spar, but after the day of constant running around, Jing Yuan, especially since he couldn't take his afternoon nap.
Arriving home after the long hours of the day, he was greeted by his lovely wife, who had a smile upon her face. His hands latched on her waist as he dove in for a kiss nearly melting in her embrace.
Tumblr media
Your laugh had reached his ears as he buried his face into your neck after his welcome home kiss. "My general, how was you day?" His lazy grin was etched onto his face as he began to lightly press kisses against your exposed neck, making you shudder a bit.
"I missed my darling little wife all day, I couldn't even get you out my mind," your cheeks burned at his voice right next to your ear made a shiver go down your spine, and his eyes took notice. "Hm, it looks like you got something on your mind, mind telling?"
Your breath hitched in your throat as you took his hands into yours, a flustered expression upon your face as you looked up at him, his lips still curled into that lazy teasing grin.
"It's been quiet a bit since we've been married, and I just wanted to know if..." Your words died on your tongue as you looked to the ground before speaking up once more. "I wanted to know if you'd want a child... with me?"
"Oh, is that all?" Your heart sank as you slowly nodded from his tone, "Well, I thought you were going to break some bad news to me," His hands slipped to your hips gently rubbing through the fabric. "Well, come let's go then."
And that's how you ended up in bed with your husband's fingers sliding in and out of you prepping you for him. His hand clasped around your throat as he pressed his lips to your neck, three of his fingers just sliding in and out of you.
His voice whispering in your ear as you felt yourself clamping down on his fingers. "And when we have a child, maybe we could have more?" Cause he knew, if you were going to bare his children, he would enjoy seeing your glow with your swell belly wanting to just fill you up once your child popped out.
"Maybe we could also adopt Yanqing and give him a few brothers and sisters, yeah?" His eyes looked down to see where your slick and cum soaked his fingers after letting you cum twice on his finger and hand. "Well, here, let me just fill you up now." He turned you to face him as he pressed his lips against yours.
His fingers spread your folds open as he moved his hand that was around your throat to guide himself in, before pushing his fat cock into your wet hole.
You were already shaking and panting for air after your second orgasm on just his fingers alone, his fat cock was stretching you out once more. "I will never get used to this feeling..."
His hands went to your hips as he began to pepper kisses against your exposed chest, his hips thrusting up to bury himself more into your dripping hole.
"You want me to fill you up? Fuck a baby into you? Look how cute you look with that expression, I wish you could see yourself," he chuckled as he brushed a stray piece of hair behind your ear pressing his lips to your already bruised lips.
"Just a bit more and I'll fill you up nicely before we go again after all, I just want to watch my cum drip out of you when we are done."

Welt Yang
It is absolutely no secret that Welt Yang is the father-like figure of the chaotic trio, with his wife being the mom, and Himeko being the wine aunt. Exploring the Xianzhou Alliance with Trailblazer and March 7th without his wife was a handful.
Welt wanted nothing more than just go back to The Astral Express and sleep wit his wife. But what is she doing here now with Dan Heng at her side and is that...?
Tumblr media
Welt shook his head as he took your hand and pressed a kiss to your cheek, "How and why are you here [Name]? Are you okay? Any injuries or bruises?" His worried face made you giggle into your hand as your pressed your lips to his to quit his babbling.
"Shh, I'm fine. I'm a bit sad you underestimate me though... You hurt me," Welt's eyebrows furrowed as he opened his mouth to retaliate but was cut off by Dan Heng. "Mrs. Yang was with me, she is perfect fine and safe."
You let a giggle fall past your lips as you wrapped your arms around Welt, as one of his arms held you against him taking in the scent of your perfume making him just want to drown in your warm hold.
But ultimately Welt sighed out, and motioned for you and Dan Heng to follow after him, "I'll take you where me and the other two are staying. I'm pretty sure you two need some rest after your little journey to catch up with us."
After arriving to the place where they were staying Dan Heng went with his two chaotic friends shared room, and you were left to bunk with your husband.
When you turned to him after you locked the door he just sighed out after seeing that glint in your eye. "Indulge me?" He smiled a bit as he placed his cane nearly the door and moved to kiss you as clothes slowly came off.
His hands gently groped at you body, his mouth moving across your skin as he breathed in your lovely scent that seemed to drive him insane. You giggled as you slipped off the edge of the bed and gently took his cock into your mouth making him groan lowly.
Your tongue licked his slit as one of his hands went to the top of your head and gently scratched at your scalp the more you took him into your mouth.
Your hand moving down to massage his balls as abruptly bucked his hips upward forcing his dick down your throat as he muttered an apology as he gently pushed you off of him and pulled you up.
His lips pressed against your as he pulled you on top of him as he laid back against the bed, his lips not bothering to part from yours. His hands on your hips as you gently reached down and guided his cock against your folds before lowering yourself down as his cock pressed against the deepest part of you.
You shuddered above him as you parted from the kiss and pressed you hands against his chest as you began to bounce on him. "I-I think it time... for us to have our own little chaotic child."
Welt sighed heavily but his little smile didn't falter as his hands helped you with your bouncing. "If that's what you want, who am I to decline my wife?"
Your eyes softened as you leaned down and kissed him once more, unable to stop the warmth that spread throughout your body as he accept your little proposal.
Tumblr media
this took way longer than need to post, my bad lovelies

CHRISTMAS ROLES LETS GOOOO
Mk- Life of the part and is the one to either get black out drunk or be the one helping the black out drunks
Pigsy- Would make noodles for everyone during and after the party. Would also make sure to always have an eye on once enemies and Bai He for her safety.
Mei- Also the life of the party, however she is more likely to break something sober instead of drunk
Tang- Freeloader and wine aunt #3
Sandy&Mo- would make everyone hot chocolate, always have a med kit, and repair anything that broke.
Wukong- Originally said he didn’t want to go but was convinced by Mk to go because 1) he would never get used to crowds again if he never tried and 2) Macaque would be going and if he wanted to repair his relationship with him he’d have to go (not a ship)
Macaque- Was dragged along with Bai He, he wanted to go before she offered. Wine aunt #1
Bai He- Running around the place in the first few hours, naps, wakes up, eats food, repeat.
Red Son- Was approached by the Demon Twins then Mei and Mk, eventually caved when Bai He also asked. Told his parents and asked if they wanted to join, to which they agreed.
PIF- Wine aunt #2
DBK- barbecue dad, like this is canon. He would bring demon exclusive ingredients and his wife ingredients that humans could have as gifts for Pigsy and Pigsy would have a field day with them.
Yin & Jin +their mom- Yin and Jin spiked the punch but then fell for their own prank. With Bai He present no one drank the spiked punch, but then Mk notified the duos mom and she picked them both up.
Nezha- Had attendees for a brief moment just to bring gifts and catch up with everyone then left because he’s a busy guy, BUT IF HE WASNT BUSY, he would be playing games with red son, just dance with Mei, cooking Mk, and getting to know Bai He. Of course he’d talk to the others but it’s brief.. but he would also participate in gossip by droppping random tea when walking by the wine trio
Mayor- Wouldn’t stay too long, just give gifts and leave.

i want to know in excruciating detail how gojo babytrapped nanami the first time (with tsumiki and megumi) and what the siblings think of him. Like with shoko, shes def their wine aunt, but what about nanami? Another dad? A mom? He-who-they-respect-more-than-gojo? Did their relationship affect nanami's decision to leave jujutsu?? All in all i want to hear your thoughts on nanami.
I have this ENTIRE saga of the Teen Parenting Trio back then that I would give anything to have the time to write. I should have been an heiress. I would just buy little beverages and write my silly little tales all day long.
The Teen Parenting Trio’s backstory with them first trying to take care of Megumi and Tsumiki is very near and dear to my heart because the dynamic they had back then was extremely painful and messy. They were all grieving. They were all being taken advantage of in different ways. They were all lashing out at each other. They all just very desperate wanted to save Megumi and Tsumiki and make a better world for them and in a lot of ways they failed.
The thing to be understood is that Nanami had one foot out the door when Gojo showed up with Tsumiki and Megumi in tow.
He was never the same after Haibara. He isolated himself and didn’t even pretend that he wasn’t doing it. Haibara and Geto had been the real unifying forces of their group, is the thing, and once they were gone, the group fell apart. Nanami saw no reason to go out for food or to the arcade with Gojo and Shoko and pretend like they were all friends.
Haibara had been the one to pull Nanami out of his shell, initially. He was the one who first made sure Nanami was at group hangouts. And when Haibara died, it was too painful for Nanami to go and see the empty spaces Haibara had left behind, so he just told himself that he, Gojo, and Shoko hadn’t really been friends, that they were just hanging out with each other because they had mutual friends, and shut himself off from everyone. It was extraordinarily clear to all of them that when graduation rolled around, they’d probably never speak to Nanami again. If he stayed in the jujutsu world, he wasn’t exactly going to call them up for drinks.
And it wasn’t that they actually weren’t friends. If Nanami was being honest with himself, he’d admit that they had been his friends. It just hurt too bad to be there when Haibara wasn’t.
In my head, Haibara died in part to save Nanami, and Nanami has never forgiven himself for that. He always thought it should have been him.
Anyway Gojo was inexplicably lured by the siren call of the magic of teenaged fatherhood and then was less inexplicably confronted with the fact that being a parent of two is fucking hard and then showed up with two fucking kids in tow to be their village babies and no fucking explanation as to where he got them from. Like where did he GET them. gojo get back here and explained this.
He also may or may not have phrased the pitch for communal child rearing the way those failing straight marriages do where he implies that just adding a child will bring them together and fix their problems. and they have a lot of fucking problems, so he's adding two.
Anyway Nanami was only there initially to make sure someone was feeding them. And then he was going to fuck off.
In my mind, there was a period of time before the Zenin got custody, and that time was actually good? It was the first time since Haibara that Nanami remembers being happy. They were all spending time together. Gojo was taking a step back from his missions. Nanami wasn’t hiding in his room anymore. Shoko was achieving her ultimate form as wine aunt.
And they were really trying for the kids, is the thing.
Like, they were all horrendously enchanted by Megumi and Tsumiki. Two billion kids on the planet and they got the best ones. They were the funniest motherfuckers on the planet. Megumi was an absolute prodigy when it came to bitch instincts. They adored both of them.
It wasn’t perfect. They messed a lot of things up. Gojo may have decided on cake for dinner a few too many times. And there’s a lot that all of them said that they lived to regret.
Nanami once told Gojo that he had no fucking interest in replacing Geto Suguru for him. And Gojo told him that it was so goddamn hilarious that Nanami ever thought he could.
Haibara and Getos absence was really felt painfully when they were raising the kids, because they really were the ones out of the group suited for it. Like, Geto was the one with the most caretaking instincts, and Haibara was great with kids. The rest of them were just bitchy depressed teens who couldn't be gentle to save their fucking life. They were just hammering into this thing and trying to make it work, and all they could think was how much better Geto and Haibara would have been at this.
They weren't perfect parents. you could even go so far as to say that they weren't even all that good. but they loved their fucking kids. And they tried for them.
So Shoko used to tease Nanami and call Megumi and Tsumiki "the baby trap" because it was excruciatingly obvious that that was the only reason why he stuck around. The kids really did bring them together.
And then the Zenin got partial custody. And it all fell apart.
See, I'm gonna decline to put in explicit terms how exactly the kids view Nanami, just because I think if we put definitive labels like "dad" or "uncle" on it, it'll be better discussed in the fic. But Nanami was definitely viewed as more of a primary caretaker than Shoko, and that was in part because of the aftermath of the Zenin, and in part because Shoko was dealing with her own issues in their childhood.
Namely, the fact that the school got her addicted to drugs.
I won't go into detail here with it, because that's no the point of this post, but I do really want to emphasize that Shoko was a vulnerable kid who was very purposefully and meticulously addicted to drugs by the adults in her life who should have been protecting her. The higher ups did it on purpose. And shoko was a kid who didn't have strong adult guidance in her life, whose parents weren't involved, and who had just lost most of the presence of her only two friends--Gojo to his workload, and Geto to his cult leader aspirations. She was pressured into it, told that there would be no consequences she couldn't heal, and the higher ups did it to make certain that she wouldn't leave them.
As part of my epic Teen Parenting Adventures Saga, there was a period of time where the three of them just took Megumi and Tsumiki and low key ran. Negotiations about keeping Megumi had gone to shit, the Zenin were escalating to violent conflict, and so they decided to just put Megumi and Tsumiki on a plane with them and go. The only other option was Gojo just killing everyone; they decided to take a potentially permanent family vacation instead. Yaga brokered the deal for partial custody as a way of getting them to come back, and when they did, they all faced consequences for what happened. Shoko's was that the higher ups properly realized that she may leave, and they'd lose access to their only healer. So they got her addicted to drugs as a way of making sure she couldn't easily leave him.
She was in rehab for a while after the incident with the Zenin led them to go no contact and have a universal wake up call. Nanami, meanwhile, had stopped talking to either of them, but had demanded partial custody of Megumi and Tsumiki. So he was doing parent shit like making them dinner and helping them with her homework while Shoko was getting herself clean.
That's a big reason why Nanami and Gojo take the more affirmative parental roles with Tsumiki and Megumi, while Shoko seems to take a bit more of a backseat. She's less of a mom and more of an aunt because she spent a lot of their childhood trying to undo the consequences she faced after they took a stand and tried to run with the kids.
Nanami's relationship with them, while closer than shoko's, is heavily complicated by the shit with the Zenin clan. So many relationships got irreparably changed in the course of that shitshow.
I think Nanami would have liked to be their father. And I think Nanami isn't sure if he has the right to think of himself as such. He loves them as his own, with his whole heart, and he cannot forget how Megumi looked as a small child, beaten and broken and flinching from even him. He doesn't think he'll ever be able to forget how he looked after this most recent incident either.
That's part of the reason why he's so careful with how he treats Yuuta. he fucked it up the first time, in his mind. He doesn't think he could forgive himself if he did it a second time. He thinks they prioritized the need of the jujutsu world and to make peace when they turned Megumi over to them, and he'll never, ever forgive himself for that fact. His greatest fear when he agreed to take over Yuuta's care was that he would do the same.
Yuuta keeps asking Nanami to discount Yuuta's needs for Megumi's, and a part of nanami wants to. He doesn't want to hurt Yuuta, but it fucking hurts to see Megumi agonizing in a hospital bed when he swore he would never let the Zenin put him in another one. But he's trying not to repeat his old mistakes. He's trying not to let anything come before the vulnerable kid dependent upon him to make decisions in his best interest.
If he said "yeah, go ahead, help megumi all day long," he'd be sacrificing Yuuta's wellbeing for Megumi's. And he just. He can't do that to Yuuta.
He just wishes it didn't mean leaving Megumi in pain.

୨⎯ percy jackson⎯୧
oh my
so you guys probably met at camp half blood during his first year
he was NOT having a good day and you just came and sat beside him and started rambling about random shit
and he was like “okay….”
after that you randomly came up and started talking to eachother
and soon you were inseparable
you get invited on quests with him!!
they let you come as a 4th person for emotional support
he forces you to eat blue food
once you meet sally blue food is all you eat
speaking of sally she loves you
istg she’s atleast once referred to you as her other child
she’s really glad you came up to percy and started rambling about anything and everything because now he has lots of friends
do NOT blame yourself for what happened to bianca and zoë, even if it WAS your fault, or he will shove blue pancakes down your throat until you agree that it wasn’t your fault
also i have a headcanon that bianca and percy were best friends so you three have your own little trio until she dies
if you got hurt during the battle of manhattan (in the first series) my guy would be going insane
demanding to know what happened
anyway then he goes missing and now your going insane trying to figure out what happened
while he’s gone you become good friends with leo and come with them on their quest as a distraction to the fear you feel every minute of everyday of not knowing if your best friend is okay
when you guys find him you laugh while annabeth judo flips him
then judo flip him yourself
you and annabeth are a platonic power couple
BONUS 1:
Y/N, in a high voice, holding barbie: hey ken! I was thinking about going back to school and starting a career!
Percy, in a deep voice, holding ken: nonsense, barbie. you’re staying home and having my kids
Annabeth: what the fuck are you guys doing?
Y/N: playing systemic oppression
i feel like if you’re part of the 7 he’d be a bit annoyed because he knows being part of a prophecy like that means you’re gonna get hurt a lot
but like he can’t stop you from coming along because you’re in a prophecy
it’s impossible (probably)
THE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS WHEN HE FALLS INTO TARTARUS WITH ANNABETH
YOUR BSF COULD BE DEAD
HOW ARE YOU EXPECTED NOT TO PANIC
when they get out okay you and him go for like a night in the city to catch up cause you’ve both been busy
it was… chaotic
so for dramatic affect let’s say gaea destroyed your house so you have no place to stay and he’s like “you can live with me!!!”
you do then lester shows up and you terrify him with your… well your everything basically
if percabeth has kids your probably the wine aunt/uncle/relative
you go to the same high school
and take almost all the same classes
HE WILL NEVER TAKE MATH OR ENGLISH EVER AGAIN
you randomly storm into eachothers classes to tell eachother the most random things
“PERCY LOOK I FOUND A FROG”
“THATS SO COOL WHATS ITS NAME”
the chaos that you two would cause accidentally
you buy recorders together and annoy EVERYONE
annabeth breaks them eventually
in conclusion: being percys best friend is: chaotic, fun, and also dangerous. he’s protective but that doesn’t have to be a bad thing because like he’d fight for you if anything were to happen
10/10 best friend would recommend
BONUS 2:
Percy: it’s dark in here
Y/N: don’t worry i got this
Y/N: *stomps feet*
Y/N: *sketchers light up*
୨⎯ leo valdez ⎯୧
for my own sake i’m gonna say you met at the boarding school
you, jason, leo, and piper were all VERYYYY good friends
you had your own little squad
you were closest with leo though because of your energy matching
anyway when the whole thing at the grand canyon happens you two are tryna work together to do whatever you can
spoiler warning: IT DIDNT WORK
you tried okay
when the chariot crashes at chb you’re both like “wtf”
you probably pointed out the thing above his head
when he learns he can do fire powers you guys have fires every week where you make s’mores and yell at people from afar
funniest duo
probably forbids you to do random stuff
if you’re part of the 7 hes probably happy because:
a) HES GOING ON A QUEST WITH HIS BESTFRIEND
b) you can do your pranks together and make everyone angry at you
so help me god if you fall into tartarus with percy and annabeth he will jump in after you
no he tries but jason doesn’t let him
if you don’t fall in but are restless and worried after he’ll stay by you the whole time
even though your kinda freaking him out he’s not gonna leave you like this
when they come back alright hes so happy to see your tense shoulders relax and you fall asleep easily that night
OH ALSO PLATONIC FLIRTING
you’d probably propose at restaurants to get free food
or if someone’s bothering you or him the other will come and flirt and act like your/his partner to scare them away
i’m pretty sure leo has canonically read the hunger games so he rants to you about it while sobbing his eyes out
WHEN HE HAS TO DIE IN BOO HE AVOIDS YOU FOR AWHILE AS TO NOT GET ATTACHED TO YOU FURTHER
when you find out what’s he’s gonna do it’s too late and he’s already gone 😨😨
another 6 restless months
you lose hope then your sibling comes in and says “HES BACK”
you judo flip his ass so hard
then you meet calypso and become friends with her too
she’s like you and leo’s gaurdian
BONUS 1:
*Y/N and Leo sitting together in jail*
Leo: so who should we call
Y/N: i’d call calypso but i feel safer in jail
comforting eachother after jason dies
okay back to the not sad stuff
BONUS 2:
Y/N: *holding perfume bottle* is this whiskey or perfume?
Leo: *chugs entire bottle*
Leo: it’s perfume

I can't think of any specific question so this is your free "ramble about any fic or idea or character you want" card now!!
Thank you so much for the free license! (...and sorry I've been so slow to respond. I'm about 1/8th of a person trying to get by in life LOL)
I'm gonna take this as an opportunity to talk about the worldbuilding I've done more or less within Toril, specifically in creating a number of related illithid colonies that behave rather differently than others in the Underdark. It... started as one and just got a bit out of hand, as worldbuilding tends to do, heh.
It began with a trio of illithid OCs in a throuple and the colony that gave rise to them, and then I began thinking about how their colony might have come about in the first place and that turned into a fanfic featuring madness, tragedy, and Ilsensine's meddling. I haven't updated it in a little while but it's far from forgotten, and I have plans to work on it as soon as I clear out a few smaller ideas that are pestering me.
The ultimate aim for this story is to create a setting that people will be welcome to use in their own games or writing, either the specific colony and NPCs I've come up with or other colonies founded by this one that they can tailor to their own wishes. (And all with thanks to @tcfactory for putting the idea of a "wine aunt Elder Brain" into my mind in the first place. The ulitharid that becomes this particular Elder Brain ends up being one of the main characters in this fic eventually.)
The main point of view character is an illithid who has begun dabbling in the arcane, but before they are caught and made to flee for their life madness seizes the colony. They manage to protect themself with a spell, and then (along with a few other survivors and the help of a visiting ulitharid) they begin putting their lives back together, albeit in a new order. The other survivors are the priests of Ilsensine, and the fic is written from each of their perspectives in the form of records left behind, inscribed in the absence of an Elder Brain to hold their knowledge.
If this sounds interesting and up your alley, feel free to check it out, though I certainly won't be offended if you'd rather wait for actual updates or until it's finished.
And thanks again for the lovely ask!

Could you do one with any bots of your choosing with a human (doesn't need to be s/o) who typically takes the role of mentor/parental figure for people around them? (Not sure I worded this right, if not, sorry)
(P.s You're awesome, make sure to take care of yourself and have a good day) :)
I did this so the reader is kinda trying to take care of the bots like a parent or something, but it doesn’t really end up like that. Platonic, and I just did two bots since I wanna go to sleep. Also thank you very much and you take care of yourself too :D
~Arcee~
•Arcee is very protective of others but I wouldn’t really call her motherly or anything like that
•She doesn’t really have that vibe in my opinion, maybe more like an aunt that could use an equivalent of a glass of wine, like all the time
•But you trying to make sure she’s okay and kinda taking a parental role with her, doesn’t really sit right with her
•She’s very independent so she doesn’t like being told what to do, unless it’s in regards to missions or something official
•You’re of course not going to force it on her, but you just tend to be like that, taking care of everyone
•Arcee appreciates it when it comes to the trouble trio, but she would prefer to be the one looking after you, since he feels responsible and you’re her friend
•You still do it though, asking her if she’s rested and consumed some energon  and making sure she remembers to take it easy sometimes
~Bumblebee~
•Bee is much more like the big brother type rather to the trouble trio, but since you’re older than him in human years he’s more like a younger brother to you
•You’re always looking after him, and keeping an eye on him so he doesn’t do anything reckless
•It’s sometimes things like “Remember to keep your habsuite tidy” and “You seem tired, you should recharge”
•Bee appreciates it, but like the teenager he is, he can get a bit whiny about it sometimes
•And of course Miko and Raf have taught him the whole “Whatever mom/dad” thing
•Bee is protective of his friends and teammates and you naturally belong in that group
•You’re more like mentally protective if that makes sense, since you know you couldn’t really protect him in a physical fight
•You want him to feel well and be healthy and happy

TFA TaraProwl Idea: Tarantulas hears his ex, that he is definitely over, died and immediately goes "I think the fuck not" and signs up to help Blackarachnia in order to get to Cybertron and steals the All Spark having betrayed her. Hears about Prowl's ghost showing up and steals his body.
Basically, on the run with Prowl's corpse, Bumblebee and Bulkhead, who can see the Prowl ghost and the All Spark to resurrect the dead. Bulkhead is deeply invested in their "romance" and gasping throughout the entire retelling, while Bumblebee refuses to believe it.
Prowl does get necromancied, though he wasn't dead-dead, more like IDW Bee Dead. Prowl keeps switching back and forth between the groups as Megatron and Optimus are both tracking him down. Optimus to save his friends and Megatron bargaining with his knowledge of the area and watching the drama going down as Sentinel didn’t trust Optimus to go alone and Blackarachnia was dragged along as it was her ship. He is like the terrible influence wine aunt who is just commenting on the disaster trios hot mess of a relationship. He is also invested in this because he has been stuck in the body of a Minicon due to Tarantulas messing with his "upgrade" and is now pocket-sized. Ratchet puts him in a cookie jar as punishment
Prowl confirms their former relationship when he comes back to life and it turns out they didn't break up so much as Prowl ran off due to the guilt of what happened with Lockdow and to avoid the draft. This left Mesothulas alone and as an odd duck. He eventually defected to the Decepticons in part to find Prowl, met Blackarachnia and got his dream bod. He also still has the protoform he'd filed paperwork for them to co-mentor and never activated, carrying them with him a la tiny Sari pod the whole time. During the ruckus the baby is born when they both (+Blitzwing who is glared down by Tarantulas and wisely steps away) touch him and tiny Springer is born.
Of course, Tara, of course.
Ghost prowl?
Ah yes, theft of an offlined frame
oh bulky
Why does that give the vibe of a Frankensteinesque scene but instead of the actual process it's essentially just defibrillating a corpse, except Allspark edition. Tara will say "iT'S ALIVE, IT'S ALIVE!!!" and Prowl just sighs.
Meggsie yES
Tara had no idea what to do until he had all the ideas
Awww yes. So he was just lugging a half baked baby around until this very moment.

 ��He said yes?”
“He did!” Beatrice says with the phone on her ear, holding it up with a shoulder as she folds her laundry, “Didn’t even hesitate.”
“Huh…I mean, you did tell him he’d be like fresh blood on shark infested waters right?”
“Yes, Leo, I made that very clear.”
Her brother on the other end ‘huh’ed again, the sound of kitchen utensils being washed in the background, “Brave man. I get freaked out sometimes and it's my family too…did you just call me to tell me that?”
“Kind of,” Beatrice changes ears while propping the laundry basket to her hip bone, “I just wanted to ask you when we get there, to let him in on some info, who to not talk to.”
“Like the Bitch Trio?” while she wouldn’t call her cousins that, Leonardo wouldn’t be wrong, “Those would be the first ones he should avoid.”
“I don’t get why people keep inviting them.” the brunette huffed, walking up the steps to the loft area, Jolene following her right behind, just waiting for her to drop the laundry basket so she could hop inside and enjoy the warmth.
“‘Cause they are family, which is some bullshit. Everyone knows they love starting drama. Especially Melinda,” he makes a disgusted noise, “I swear, aunt Martha is just too nice, I would never invite them to any celebration.”
Beatrice chuckles, kneeling to the floor with the basket by her side, giving Jolene a sigh when she hopped inside immediately. Instead of pushing her off, she just scratched the top of her head as the pittie got comfortable, “I wouldn’t either. Is there anyone else you think he should be careful with?”
“Oh, oof, man…I think everyone pretty much is a huge warning sign before they meet him for real. I do think uncle Roberto will like him, maybe even uncle Elia.”
“Uncle Eli is coming??? He never joins celebrations.”
“The wedding thank you gifts are expensive wine bottles, Little Bitty. Do you really think he wouldn’t come?”
“You got a point.” she says, gently tapping Jolene’s butt so she could move and Beatrice finally could put her clothes in the armoire “Do you think he’s going to try and sing on stage, pushing the actual singer off?”
“Oh absolutely, he is the reincarnation of Louis Prima after all. With aunt Sonia following behind as his backing vocals.”
“Jesus.”
Leonardo laughs on the other end, shutting the water off when he’s done washing dishes, “But, I dunno, I think it’ll be fine. Him saying yes is already a good sign.” his sister’s less than enthusiastic noise doesn’t stop him from speaking, “Hey, you guys will sit with us, I’ll help him out the best I can. Plus, having Bibi there will help with distraction.”
Beatrice smiles looking down at her folded laundry inside the drawer, “I guess you are right.”
“She’s very excited to be the flower girl,” he begins, “But even more because she thinks the vineyard will have frogs that she’ll try to bring home and scare the fuck out of Cyn.”
Beatrice chuckles softly, remembering the time Bianca grabbed a bunch of frogs and put them inside the little bag she was holding. When asked by her mother what it was, she just opened and Cynthia shrieked in fear, running away to hide inside the house while Leonardo had to tell Bibi to let the frogs go. There was a knock to her front door that made Jolene scramble to her paws, whining all the way down since she knew who’d be, “Leo, I gotta go. I’ll talk to you before the wedding, okay?”
“Sure Little Bitty, just a tip, you should come by during lunchtime ‘cause everyone will be too busy to notice any car coming to the hotel.”
“Oh,you are right, thanks Leo.”
“No problem, talk to you later.”
She finished the call, rushing down the staircase with her bare feet hitting the steps loudly, the smile already on her face before she even reached the door. Jolene’s whole body shook with excitement when Beatrice opened it, the pittie immediately greeted Rooster by jumping around him and standing on her hind legs with her paws on his stomach. Beatrice allowed him to pet the dog first, knowing Jolene would neve leave him be if he didn’t, then leaned up to kiss his lips when he stood to his full height. “Hey,” she whispers, giving him another peck, “How was the gym?”
“Fine.” he smiles, fixing the duffel bag on his shoulder as he enters, Beatrice closing the door behind him, “By the way, I found out your friend Evelyn’s last name.”
“Oh?”
“Yep, Simpson.” 
“Oh, oh yeah.” she smiles, oblivious as to why he seemed so elated on telling her that, “How did you find out?”
Rooster chuckles, “Well, yesterday Hangman tried to score up with her again right?” she nods, signaling she was still listening, “So he walks up with her through the base until he sees Cyclone, who’s a vice admiral and whose name is what? Beau Simpson. I wasn’t there but Nat was and she said that Hangman’s face lost all color when he figured out who her father really was.”
Beatrice blinked, walking into her kitchen with him following, “Oh…did that scare him off?” 
“I mean, he looked terrified according to Nat.” she hums, which in turn makes him look at her, “What?”
“Well…Evelyn’s main issue with Navy guys is how they’d always freak out once they met her dad, running away.” Maybe it was the hopeless romantic in her, but she felt the two of them could work out, “I guess, I don’t know, maybe if Jake really is interested in her he could show he had no issues with her father being who he is.”
Rooster blinks in silence, then a smile slowly spreads over his lips, “You are so cute.” he says, stepping closer to kiss her,  “But I’ve never seen Jake with a girl for more than twenty four hours, babe.”
“Maybe Evelyn is the change he needed.” she says it back, wrapping her arms around his neck while he does the same to her waist, he showered at the gym before coming so he smelled so fresh, “Would it be so weird?”
“Yes. It’s Hangman, Bea.” Rooster smiles at her little pout, rubbing the pad of his thumb on the plump flesh of her lower lip, “You are very sweet, but I don’t see Jake changing how he is just because of a woman.”
“I still think there’s a chance.” she murmurs, “If Jake wants to make the effort.” 
He sighs deeply, making a face, “I don’t think it’s possible but I also don’t want to talk about Hangman anymore,” he cups the back of her legs to pick her up and set her on the counter, pressing a trail of kisses down her jaw to her neck, “It’s weird when I’m trying to kiss you.”
She giggles, leaning her head back to give him more space, her hand dragging up from his nape to the top of his hair, nails dragging on his scalp. He moans quietly, pressing his hips to hers while her legs wrap around his waist, “Brad…” he hums, keeping his teeth and tongue on her skin, “I thought you said you were coming with me to buy Halloween candy for tonight. Remember?”
The pilot groaned on her neck, dropping his forehead against the skin, “I did, didn’t I?”
“If you don’t want to–”
“No I do, it’s just,” he inhales her lavender scent with a happy groan “You are just so sexy I can’t think straight.” he pulls back from her neck, after pressing a kiss right under her jaw for good measure, tugging her out of the counter.
She just blushed even harder, laughing softly at him, “We’ll be back before you know it.” she pecks his pouting lips, “I promise I’ll make it up to you.”
-
“I haven’t eaten Halloween candy in years.” Rooster says, leaning his elbows on the back of the shopping cart while Beatrice was picking colorful bags of soft chewy candy, in her hands. Bradley followed the bag being dropped inside the cart with his eyes, picking it up for him to check what it was.
“Oh I used to sometimes.” she giggles, “Bibi liked to share hers with me. So I always had a little bit to myself.” Beatrice crouches down the aisle to pick another bag of candy, this one shaped like witches hats “Halloween was always a nice holiday for me.”
“Yeah?” he asks, not being able to keep the smile on his face when she nods, the movement shaking the french braid behind her head, “Was it your favorite holiday?”
“Christmas is my favorite, with Halloween in close second.” she walks forward a bit more, with Rooster following close behind, grabbing a few Nerds packets to drop inside too, “I loved dressing up for Halloween, it was always so fun.”
He smiles, pushing himself off the cart to step close to her, one of his hands touching her jeans clad hip as she struggled to reach a bag of cherry Twizzlers, easily grabbing a good amount in his hand, “I loved getting treats.” he says it while pressing a kiss to the edge of her jaw, making Beatrice smile and kiss him back quickly.
“We can’t make out in the middle of an aisle, Roos.” she whispers but still presses her lips to his once more.
“Why not? It’s not like I’ll…push you into a dark corner and just make sure you get out of breath just by kissing.”
“Roos!” the brunette giggles, pressing a hand on the middle of his chest, just to hold him back. “You’ll have to be patient.” he sighs, straightening himself before returning to his earlier position by the red handle, his lips pursing into a little pout. She smiles sweetly, going back on her quest to get as many candy types as she could, tossing a few Halloween toys in the cart as well. 
His smile however, only got bigger when he noticed how excited she got while getting treats for the trick or treaters. When he got to her place earlier that morning, he saw the front of her house adorned with several spooky decorations, including a pair of fake pumpkins that glowed from the inside and a ghost made out of fabric and a wire stabbed in between her flower pots. She did tell him this would be her first time getting trick or treaters at her house and she wanted them to have a good time.
Hence why she was so pumped on getting a variation of sweets, of toys and things she knew kids would love. While looking down to the slowly filling cart, Rooster couldn’t help but ask her “What’s your favorite?” she turns her head to him in question and he nods to the candy bags inside the cart “Halloween candy.”
“Oh!” Beatrice purses her lips, “I don’t know, I always liked Twizzlers, the cherry ones…and gummy bears and Butterfingers. What about you?”
Rooster hums, looking around the aisle to wrack his memory “I don’t know,anything with chocolate I guess.” he chuckles, “But I do like Butterfingers too…and Sour Patch Kids. I loved those, I liked beheading them.”
That makes a laugh sputter out of Beatrice’s mouth, dropping a few more bags inside the cart, “Weirdly cannibalistic but very cute.” she smiles, “I used to do the same too.” she looks down at her phone, peeking her tongue out while checking her notes, “I think we got pretty much everything…I already have the baggies at home, so!I think we are done here.”
“I think the kids will love it.”
“Yeah?”
“Hell yeah, look.” he spreads his arms over the cart, grinning up at her “If I was a kid getting treats, I’d go insane for all of this.” her smile makes his heart flip with happiness, her cheeks dusting with red over his compliments. God he loved it, he loved her…he still had to find a good time to say it, which he wanted badly, but it had to be the perfect time. Nothing to interrupt them, no one to ask them questions, just two people confessing to one another.
Yes, the perfect time. He hoped it would happen soon.
Beatrice slid her phone back into her back pocket, “I hope so…” she walks next to him as he leads the cart for her, “I can’t wait to see their costumes. Some kids can be very creative!Or…their parents, in that case.”
“I don’t even know what kids watch these days.” he mutters, “Is Muppet Babies still a thing?”
“I don’t think so.” she chuckles, “They’ll probably dress up as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or something, they never go out of style.”
Rooster keeps her in his peripheral, her smaller hand covering his own when he moves the cart, so he decides to push it one handed to interlace their fingers together. They approach the cashier, who looks bored out of her mind with a bat fascinator on top of her head, who rings everything quickly, her monotone voice wishing them a ‘Happy Halloween’ before they leave the market.
Beatrice was so busy putting everything inside Rooster’s Bronco, that she did not notice the pair of eyes looking her way…but Rooster did. He looked over his shoulder to where a guy, a bit shorter than him, watched the two from a Chevrolet red pickup truck. He could only describe his appearance as an off brand Vanilla Ice with longer hair. While he was wearing his sunglasses, his head was turned right in the guy’s direction, so he was sure the dude could notice he was looking.
The guy moved his eyes from Beatrice to Rooster when the pilot stepped right in his line of sight. Clearly the guy wasn’t expecting him to move, nor the not so subtle nod of ‘what are you looking at’, he sent his way. He followed the guy with his eyes narrowed, watching him scramble to get into his truck and speed out of the parking lot.
Rooster stood behind Beatrice for a little while longer, just until she announced she was done. His annoyed façade dropped, turning into a smile when he looked down at her, “Let’s go then.” He didn't feel like sharing the info about the guy yet, he didn’t want to scare her with the news of a creep looking her way. 
“Ohh,I’m so excited!” she said happily, shimmying a bit on her seat, his anger fading completely once he got in, “I hope this is enough, do you think it’s enough?”
Bradley laughs when he turns the car on, “I think it’s more than enough. You’ll make a lot of kids happy tonight.” her little smile only got bigger and brighter, clasping her hands together on her lap. “Are you dressing up too?”
“Oh, no, I’ll just wear black and call it a modern witch.” she giggles, “My costume is set for tomorrow.”
His ears perk up with interest, then his brain makes the connection “Penny’s Halloween Party?” she nods, unaware of how his jaw moved with a question “I didn’t know you were dressing up.”
“Oh,I mean, Penny said we could if we wanted to.” she shrugs, leaning on a hand while looking outside the window. He was quiet for a while, making Beatrice blink in his direction, finally noticing he wanted to know what she was going to dress up as “Oh! Julie Newmar’s Catwoman.”
It took every fiber in his body to not swerve in the road, choosing to instead clench the steering wheel tight enough to make the cover creak under his grasp. When he was a prepubescent boy, he discovered the Batman series by random. He couldn’t remember if there were vhs tapes or some channel was running the show again just for shits and giggles. But what he did remember was his crush on every single version of Catwoman from that show, but especially Julie Newmar.
He was just a young boy whose interest in girls hadn’t developed fully yet, he knew he liked them but not enough to be gobsmacked by one of them. Then he saw Julie Newmar’s Catwoman and his brain exploded, discovering that he was really into brunettes. But of course, it wasn’t only Beatrice’s hair color that attracted him to her, it was much more than that but it genuinely made him pay more attention the first time.
So to hear that her, his very gorgeous girlfriend, was going to dress up as one of his childhood crushes was doing something to him.  He cleared his throat, accommodating himself on the seat when a sudden heat came from below towards his neck, definitely flushing the tanned skin, “That’s nice.” he croaked out, “I mean, you’ll look nice.”
Bea smiled, “Thank you, I’ve always wanted to dress as her and Ev knew someone who could make her outfit with my measurements.” he let out a shaky breath just imagining her with that skin tight outfit, shaking his head to refocus, “I don’t know what Shells will be dressed as, I know Penny will be Wonder Woman.”
“That’s nice.” he had to remember he was driving a car, in the middle of a road in the afternoon, with candy that could definitely melt if he chose to park the car somewhere and just figure out how flexible he could be in the front seat. “Do we have to dress up too?”
She shrugs, pursing her lips “If you want. I know some patrons will dress up…and Phoenix said she will too.” he arches his eyebrow at her “She said she’ll dress up as a cactus.”
He was about to say something, but knowing how Phoenix humor could be sometimes he chose to just keep his mouth shut. “I have an idea for a costume.” she tilts her head towards him, waiting for his reply “A strapping pilot who likes to wear Hawaiian shirts.” Beatrice rolls her eyes laughing, which in turn makes him laugh as well, parking the Bronco in front of her house “No, but seriously, I don’t have any idea what I could dress up as.”
“Well,” she unbuckled her seatbelt, pursing her lips, “You could be…hmmm…oh you’d be a great Gomez. You know, from the Addams Family?” 
“I do look great in a suit.” he chuckles, stepping out from the car to open the passenger seat for her, helping her carry the bags “But I couldn’t be a Gomez without my Morticia, and you are dressing up as Catwoman.” her cheeks flushed under his words, “So maybe a second option is needed.”
Beatrice held two bags up, allowing Rooster to close the passenger door and lock the blue Bronco as she got closer to her door. She gasped, turning to him with a smile, “I know! Magnum P.I! He has a mustache and likes Hawaiian shirts too.”
Rooster couldn’t help but chuckle, “I mean, you have a point.” He waits until she enters the house, Jolene greeting both of them with leaps of joy, running between their legs, bringing her sock monkey as a welcome gift. Beatrice rushes to the kitchen where the colorful Halloween baggies were waiting to be filled inside a large pumpkin bucket, “I could do that.”
“You’d look really good too,” she throws over her shoulder, dropping the bags on her kitchen table -which she just got!! -, the different types of sweets spilling over the dark colored wood “You’d just have to use your shirt, no top underneath.”
With her giving her back to him, Rooster smiled, approaching her from behind to wrap his arms around her waist. “You just want to make it easier for you to take it off,” he kisses right below her earlobe “Which is completely fine by me.”
“Roos…” she bites back her smile “I have to set everything ready and you said you’d help me…” her pilot groans, letting her go with a heavy sigh but he’s smiling, removing his sunglasses to slip them on the collar of his tee, taking a seat next to hers. She was so happy, so excited to do this he had no other feelings but pure adoration towards her.
Every baggie had candies and a gift, a tiny notepad with crayons. She didn’t want to give the kids something that’d be too locked within a gender and pretty much every child liked to draw so it’d be a good gift! While they were busy, she was a lot faster than he was too, he couldn’t help but let his eyes wander to her backyard where he knew she was painting from the time he was deployed. “So…did you finish your picture?” she looks up from tying the baggie with a bright green bow “You said you were painting something when I was gone. Did you finish it?”
Beatrice slows her movements, her cheeks reddening “Oh…um…not yet.” she doesn’t meet his eyes, choosing to focus on filling the baggies instead. His eyes squint humorously, so she was hiding something from him, he was too used to her mannerisms for her to hide stuff like that.
“Do you still want to show it to me once it’s done?”
“Yes.”
“You sure?” his smile turns boyish, the idea it was probably something of a surprise for him making him feel giddy.
“Yes.” she repeats, biting back her smile “You just gotta be patient..and we have to finish this now so we can’t focus on anything else.” he laughs but nods, offering a shrug in her direction as they continue fixing the baggies. 
-
She peeks through the curtains again, the pumpkin bucket on her hand as she looks outside “There’s no one yet.” she murmurs, “What if they don’t come here,Roos? I don’t even know if this neighborhood has a lot of kids.”
He steps behind her, nudging his head on her shoulder to look out just like she did “They’ll be here, gorgeous.” she makes a sad noise, her crestfallen expression when she looks down at the bucket tugs at his heart “Hey, hey, they’ll be here. Okay? Give it a few more minutes.”
Beatrice gives him a look, the dark kohl around her eyes making them appear even bigger “Okay…” she couldn’t hold back the smile when he kisses her cheek, “Thank you.”
“You are welcome, pretty girl.” he chuckles, “You sure you don’t want my help?”
“No, I’ll be fine. Just go ahead and relax, you are my guest after all.” she smiles, a soft laugh tittering out of her mouth when he presses a noisy kiss to her cheek again, walking back to the couch where Jolene remained. Beatrice couldn’t help but sigh happily, remembering that after she told him about the wedding, he suggested he could spend the few days before it happened if it helped her feel calmer. So he’d packed up his duffel bag with enough clothes and hygienic products for the time being, choosing to get the suit for the wedding early Friday.
It was comforting having him there, just lounging on her couch wearing his gray sweatpants and no shirt. It was…very nice to know he was in her space. Beatrice’s line of thoughts broke when she started to hear the sudden noise of voices approaching, “Oh my god, oh my god!!” she peeks through the curtain again, seeing a group of kids wander by “Roos!!They are here!”
Rooster chuckles, looking back at Beatrice who was bouncing on the spot with how happy she was, watching her open the door and greet the kids with as much joy as the kids had. He heard the kids gasp and thank her when she gave them the heavy baggies filled with candy, while his eyes remained on the tv, watching Kandy Muse and Tamisha Iman argue during Untucked.
Beatrice remained close to the window, while Bradley and Jolene stayed on the couch, watching Drag Race together. The pitbull’s large head resting on top of his thigh, her eyes blinking sleepily when he petted her head repeatedly, before she succumbed to sleep. He was so focused on watching Drag Race - it was a great show and he already shared his own thoughts with the others, especially Nat who was an avid watcher as well - he didn’t see the time go by.
His girlfriend was just so happy being able to give the kids a good Halloween night she didn’t even move too much from her spot by the window. She did however, blink in surprise when a black Toro pick up truck rolled to a park right outside, a large figure walking out of the driver’s seat to open the passenger door, where a tiny person rushed out.
She could only blink in surprise, seeing the large figure wobble closer, then the doorbell rang. When she opened her eyes immediately focused on her brother looking downright miserable,”Leo?” he purses his lips, then nods “You…uh…what are you doing here?”
“Bibi wanted to see you.” he gestures to the little girl, which makes Bea drop her gaze as well. Bianca was wearing blue overalls, a red shirt and a large red cap with a big M on it with her blonde hair pulled back into it. Not to mention, the paper mustache glued above her niece’s lips. 
“Oh…I–”
“Its-a me! Mario!!” Bibi shouts with gusto, pulling out a tiny stuffed mushroom, playing that she bit into it, then bouncing as if she got bigger - much like Mario did.
Realization hits Beatrice, her eyes slowly dragging back to her older brother and his costume. It was a full green onesie with a sewn on head, big fake eyes staring down at her “Oh my God…you–”
“I am Yoshi, obviously.” 
“No!” Bianca looked back at her father, “You need to make Yoshi sounds!!”
Leonardo sighed heavily, licking his lips and saying the word ‘mlem’ in the highest tone his voice could get. Beatrice sputters, biting her lips to prevent her grin, “Yes, yes laugh all you want.”
“I-I’m s-sorry..” she tried so hard to hold back her laughter, but only managed to cackle even harder, “I-I, you–” she snickers, covering her mouth with a hand while her brother looks at her unamused, “Oh…oh my g-god…I-I’m so sorry. You look-” a quiet snort comes out of her nose “You look gr-great.”
“Uh-huh.” Leo’s drone reply didn’t help the situation, “Bibi, ask auntie.”
Bianca blinked, holding up her pumpkin bucket, “TRICK OR TREAT!! YAHOO!” Beatrice, after wiping her eyes from laughing so hard, dropped a few of the baggies inside her niece’s bucket, smiling down at her when the blonde girl gasped, whispering a ‘cool’ when she opened the baggie already.
Rooster, hearing the commotion - and Bea’s laughter- decided to put on a shirt before he walked closer to the open door. His eyes widened briefly as he took in Leonardo’s costume, “Hey…Yoshi?” Leonardo nods, unamused, gesturing to his daughter who was sniffing a crayon, dressed as the Italian plumber. “Oh hey, nice costume.”
Bianca looks up, her paper mustache crooked as she gasps, “PRINCE ROOSTER!” she shouts, standing to her feet with her tiny arms up in the air “You are here!! Hi!” 
“Hey, Bianca,” he smiles, “Nice mustache, you are going to make me jealous. It looks much better than mine.”
Bianca’s eyes widened, “I’m Mario!” she grins her few toothed smile, “I’m going to get all the candy and defeat Bowser!!” 
“You do that, I believe in you.” Rooster replies, enjoying how the little girl growled out in triumph, her tiny fists in the air. He didn’t even notice his arm was around Beatrice’s waist, force of habit really, but he did see Leonardo’s eyes move to it immediately. He didn’t want to remove it, even if Leonardo’s eyes zeroed on it the moment he noticed it. But Bea’s brother just gave him a small smile and an even smaller nod - which with him dressed as Yoshi was downright hilarious- before grabbing his daughter’s fist.
“Come on BIbi, time to go home.”
Bianca frowned, looking back at her aunt and Rooster, “But I wanna stay! Can’t we stay daddy??”
“Uh… no, cause…mom is waiting for us.”
“Mommy is asleep!”
“Mommy is waiting for us while asleep, let’s go.” he swoops down to grab the little girl in his arms, kissing her cheek “Say bye, Bibi.” the little girl pouted, but did so, before pressing her cheek to her dad’s shoulder in annoyance. 
“Bye!” Beatrice smiles, leaning onto Rooster’s chest as she watches her brother turn around to his car. The moment he does, her eyes just double in size, “Oh my god YOU HAVE A TAIL TOO???”
“SHUT UP!” Leonardo retorts, covering the plushy tail from his costume with a hand. “STOP LOOKING AT MY TAIL!” but his sister was already laughing and Rooster was trying very hard to not laugh a long, rubbing the tip of his thumb against his lips while looking away. Beatrice was still giggling when her brother got into the truck, telling Bianca to cover her ears as he dropped an ‘f’ bomb, but he was laughing just as hard. Beatrice in return, shouted she loved him as he drove off.
Her laughing diminished and she looked down at the bucket in her hands:  empty. She did it. She had her very first Halloween in her house, gave out candy by herself and saw her niece and brother! It was a great night, so great she just turned to Rooster to wrap her arms around his torso, pressing her ear to his chest to hear the heartbeat, “That was fun,” he comments and she nods, “How are you feeling?”
“Good.” her body was also finally relaxing from all the excitement “And tired…but I had fun.”
“You did, it was really nice to see.” he kisses the top of her head, pulling her back inside, “What do you say we get something to eat?” she hums positively, letting go of him to drop the bucket to the floor. But she goes back to holding him,inhaling his cologne before her eyes move back to his, lashes fluttering with the promise of something else. Rooster’s eyes drooped, his tongue wetting out his lips, “Or…you have something else in mind.”
“I did say I’d make it up to you.” she whispers, biting her lower lip while grabbing his hand to lead him upstairs, “Didn’t I?”
“Hmhm.” he mutters, letting her lead him up before he looks back to where Jolene is sprawled on the couch, “What about Jojo?”
“She’ll be asleep…but if you are worried she’ll come upstairs, I have a pet gate that I use when I have to clean up here and she can’t come over.” she says, “I keep it in the laundry room.” She just laughs when he lets go of her hand to bolt downstairs, turning the lights on in the laundry room - her dog just lifting her head then dropping without much interest - before he comes out with the pet gate.
She had never seen someone set it up so quickly, but he did, rushing back upstairs to wrap his arms around her waist. Much to her surprise, he just tossed her over his shoulder, “Rooster!” she yelps, trying to balance herself the best she could, letting out a shout when she feels his hand immediately hit her ass. “Bradley!!”
“Can’t hear you! Going to get my treat!!”

i love all of your headcanons sooo much. do you have any more about the shadow and tails duo?? or perhaps tails and some other characters we dont usually get to see him with all that much (charmy, cream, rouge, etc?)
sure thing!! ^^
Shadow
he and tails like to communicate their feelings through music (usually classical music)
nobody else really gets it, but they do :]
if shadow’s shoes need repairs, he’ll do them himself but he’ll do it in tails’s workshop (its totally only because tails has the best tools and not because shadow wants to spend time with him)
shadow lets tails stay up late
shadow has most definitely offered to kill tails’s bullies spdsvgr
when civilians throw parties for the heroes for saving the world again, tails immediately goes off to find shadow so he can chaos control them the fuck outta there (he appreciates it !! but no social interaction after saving the world, he sleepy)
tails was actually a little scared of shadow after the war against infinite :( he knew it wasn’t actually shadow, but still
Cream&Charmy
they play dumb kid games like shark and minnows every time they meet up
cream and tails bake together :]
charmy is actually the one who got tails into gaming (he’s SO salty that tails is actually better than him now)
they should not be left without adult supervision when together.. it will not end well
tails gives them both flying lessons and tips on how to go fast even while carrying someone
charmy and tails are lego guys !! they build all kinds of shit (they never use instructions)
cream taught them how to make flower crowns <3
certified chao protection trio
cream and charmy constantly remind tails he’s a kid like them and deserves to let loose and have fun :]]
after tails disappeared during the war in forces, cream started a little flower bed that she added onto once a day until he returned
Rouge
she’s his wine aunt
rouge helps him with learning how to carry heavier objects/people
tails is allowed to do practically anything he wants when rouge watches him
she’ll say she doesn’t care for him, but rouge is soft <3
rouge beta tests a lot of the stealth gadgets tails creates
tails gets flustered a lot because she praises him a LOT and he doesn’t know how to cope
rouge gives him a lot of classified gov. info because why not (he gives her gems in payment)
she absolutely spoils him (so does everyone who’s older than him but like,, rouge especially)

chapter thirty-two — empty apologies
➝ some wounds are too deep for simple dressings.
➝ word count: 3,9k
➝ warnings: none
DECEMBER, 2016
The elevator in Niki and Marlene's building was more full than it usually was when Elisabeth came to visit. This time, she had Toto, Rosi, and Ben in tow. The kids were talking animatedly, something about how they were looking forward to their upcoming ski trip with their mother after the holidays were over. Elisabeth was leaning against Toto, both of them with bags in their hands, stuffed with gifts and a few bottles of wine.
She couldn't help but feel something strange inside her chest. There had been many times that she had come to Niki and Marlene’s by herself, riding up the small elevator in silence.
However, since the first time she and Toto kissed, going to her parents' house felt like letting a bull loose in a China shop. She felt like a bull, clumsy and thrashing, waiting for everything to come crashing down around her. All of the Christmas and birthday dinners she’d been to since then turned into tests of composure, especially if the subject turned to the man she loved. Discretion was the rule and she dared not break it.
However, her game of hide and seek was over. Their relationship had become public. Of course, the first few months were tricky with having to deal with the press all over them. With time, Toto's support, and sessions with Alma, her therapist, Elisabeth began to feel less uncomfortable with the comments and attention she’d received. 
Proof of this was an interview that Niki and Elisabeth did with Sky Sports. After Ted Kravitz had asked about several topics, Toto’s name came up in conversation, which made Elisabeth’s stomach churn from nerves.
— That the partnership of the three of you led Mercedes to success is no secret. But, one question I can't help but ask the two of you is whether  or not the dynamic between you has changed after… well, two-thirds of this trio decided to take a step forward in their relationship.
— The question is for you, Elisabeth — her father murmured, making her laugh.
— Okay, sure. I don’t think the dynamic has changed much. There is still room for disagreement and debate between the three of us, and, in the end, I am at Mercedes representing my father's interests, not necessarily Toto’s interests or even my own. We still try to keep things respectful and to keep an open dialogue between all parties. 
— The difference is that you have more ways of dialoguing with Toto than I do, don't you? — Niki said with a smirk, making Ted laugh. Elisabeth felt her cheeks heat up as a shy smile appeared on her face.
— Can you confirm, Elisabeth?
— I don’t mix business with pleasure, Ted. In matters of business, I only use my words.
— If they're the same as your mother's, poor him.
The memory made her look up at Toto, standing beside her. He seemed lost in his own thoughts, his brown eyes not really focused on anything. Then, he looked down at her.
— Is everything okay? — Toto whispered.
— Everything is perfect — she replied, smiling. Toto kissed her on the forehead.
The elevator door slid open a few seconds later, and the four of them stepped out into the hallway in front of her parents' apartment. After ringing the bell and waiting a few minutes, the door opened. Marlene and Lenny greeted them, accompanied by Shivas and Felix at their heels.
— Tante! — Lenny shouted, running past Marlene towards Elisabeth, hugging her legs tightly. Behind him came the dogs, barking loudly and wagging their tails, walking around everyone at the apartment door, sniffing them.
Elisabeth handed the bag she was holding to Ben and bent to pick her nephew up, hugging him and kissing his cheek tenderly.
— Mausi! How I missed you! — Elisabeth said.
— I missed you more — he replied, tightening his little arms around her neck. And she didn't doubt that statement, considering her presence had always been big in Lenny's life. She was his only aunt, as Claire had no sisters, and was one of the people he had the most contact with. Not seeing him for months on end was heartbreaking for Elisabeth and she couldn't imagine what it had been like for him.
— I doubt it — she said, kissing his hair. “Jesus, he's getting heavy”, Elisabeth thought, as she patted him twice on the back, signaling that she was going to put him back on the ground — Have you said hi to your Onkel yet?
Then, the boy seemed to notice Toto's presence, a wide smile taking over his little face.
— Hi, Onkel Toto — he said, throwing himself at the legs of the team principal, who asked Elisabeth for help with the bags she was holding to pick Lenny up.
— Good evening, young man, how are you?
— I'm fine. I'm helping Oma in the kitchen.
— You and Eli, right? — Marlene said, running a hand through the boy's blond curls.
— Eli's in the kitchen too, but he's too little to help — Lenny said, making everyone there laugh — He’s just eating the raspberries mommy crushed for him and he's still making a mess.
— And you don't make a mess, Mausi?
— No, Tante, I'm a very good cook, aren't I, Oma?
— The best cook in the family — Marlene answered her grandson, smiling, as Toto ran a hand through the boy's light hair. Then his eyes found the two teenagers who were there, distracted by the family dogs.
— Who are they? — Lenny asked, pointing at the two of them.
— Ah — Elisabeth smiled — They are Benedict and Rosi, Onkel Toto's children. Ben, Rosi, this is Lennon, my oldest nephew.
The two smiled, waving at the boy. He stared at them with his pale eyes before shyly waving back. Their first meeting was not what she had imagined, but it was still fantastic for Elisabeth to see the two spheres of her life finally together, interacting.
— Well, I guess we can go in, can't we? — Marlene said, while Toto put Lennon on the ground — Nobody wants to be cold out here and by the fireplace it's very cozy, isn't it, Lenny?
— Yes, Oma! Come in, Tante! — the little boy said, tugging on Elisabeth's coat. It was up to her to laugh and give in to her nephew's requests.
After everyone came in from the entryway, leaving their shoes and coats behind, they headed to the living room, where Lukas, Niki and Mathias were. Shivas and Felix had already trotted in to take their places back in front of the fireplace. Lenny came skipping along with Elisabeth at his heels, shouting to everyone that his aunt had arrived.
As Niki and Lukas immediately got up to hug her, she noticed that Mathias hesitated for a few seconds, as if thinking of the best way to greet her. In the end, as she approached him, her brother merely held out his hand for her to shake.
— Good evening, Elisabeth — he said, his voice oddly formal.
— Good evening — she replied. She didn’t have long to feel awkward about it, as her attention was drawn back to her nephew, who was pulling her hand insistently.
— Come see Elli, Tante! Come — he exclaimed, clutching at her fingers.
— I'll be right there darling, just let me talk to Onkel Toto first, okay? — Elisabeth replied, before turning to Toto, who was already talking animatedly with her father. As she approached the two of them he smiled at her.
— Need something, Liesl? — he asked.
— I just wanted to bring the wine into the kitchen.
He handed the bags he was still holding carefully to her, resting his hand on her waist next.
— Do you need help in there?
— No, dear — she replied — Mom and Claire must have everything under control. Besides, considering what happened at Ben's birthday dinner, I think you better stay away from sharp objects.
Toto chuckled, before leaning over and placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. Turning her back to go into the kitchen, she caught a glimpse of Rosi. She was sitting on the couch watching Ben and Lukas talk about Shivas, a slightly bored expression on her face. “I can't leave her there”, Elisabeth thought.
— Rosi, do you want to come into the kitchen with me? — she asked the girl. Rosi smiled shyly at her. 
— Yes — she replied, getting up and following Elisabeth and Lenny into the apartment's kitchen.
The kitchen was chaotic. There were platters, plates, and bowls strewn about, pots steaming on the stove, and something that smelled delicious baking in the oven. On the countertop by the sink, Marlene was stirring something in a pan. At the table, Claire was trying to finish cutting up some cabbage, and a little boy with raspberries smeared all over his face was bouncing next to her in a high chair.
— Elisabeth! — her sister-in-law exclaimed, getting up to give her a hug — How are you?
— I'm fine — she smiled — And you?
— Tired but fine — Claire said — Nobody said raising two kids would be easy, but thank God Eli is a real angel.
— I hear those are the worst when they grow up — Marlene muttered, making them both laugh.
— Don't talk like that, Ellison will be very well behaved.
— I'm well behaved too, aren't I, Tante? — Lenny asked. Elisabeth patted her nephew on the head.
— Of course you are, Mausi. You're very well behaved — she smiled at her nephew.
— I know this conversation is riveting — Marlene butted in, putting a dish towel on her shoulder — But I need to finish dinner sometime tonight. Can you help me, Elschen?
— Of course — Elisabeth said. She strode over to her mother and picked up the pot of boiled potatoes from the sink. However, as she turned around, she noticed that Rosi was standing in the corner, looking a little out of place — Rosi, do you want to help too?
The girl nodded. Soon Marlene assigned a task to her, who was responsible for the sauce of the dumplings that would be made with the potatoes that Elisabeth would mash.
With four more helping hands in the kitchen, it wasn't long before the family's Christmas dinner was ready. Soon, the dumplings prepared by Rosi and Elisabeth were on the table, along with the traditional roast goose, Claire’s coleslaw. It fell to Lenny to get everyone to settle into chairs for the meal. It was delicious, according to him.
After the whole family was seated, glasses poured with wine, juice and water, Niki stood at the end of the table and cleared her throat as a way of attracting attention. Soon, everyone was silent, attentive to what he would say.
— You know I'm not a speech-making man. In fact, I hate giving speeches. But, I have a few things to talk about and I'm going to take advantage of this moment when everyone is gathered for this, if you don't mind.
— I won't mind if you don't take too long, I'm hungry — Lukas said. Everyone at the table chuckled.
— I won't be long, Lukas, don't worry — Niki said, before continuing — Well, first I wanted to say how happy I am to have you all here. Marlene and I have always worked very hard to keep some traditions alive in this family, and the fact that we are still able to get together at Christmas is something that makes me particularly happy.
He paused for a second before continuing.
— Second, I'd like to point out how much this family has grown since the last time we were all together. At the rate we're at, we're going to have to buy a much bigger table for next year — Niki said, eliciting new laughter — Jokes aside, I've always wanted a big family and, after everything I've been through in this life, looking at all of you, I think I did pretty well for a half-dead man. I have an amazing wife, three wonderful children, an adorable daughter-in-law, and a somewhat stupid but still extremely competent son-in-law.
The good-natured mention of Toto had Elisabeth shooting a look at him, who was running a hand through his hair, nodding at Niki. Taking his free hand, their gazes met, a smile tugging at his lips.
— What about me, Opa? — Lenny asked, making everyone at the table laugh.
— How could I forget about you, Lennon? I also have wonderful grandchildren, who bring me great joy and pride. Of course, the number increased a little more than expected, since in addition to Ellison, Elisabeth also gave me two grandchildren who, despite not being of my blood, have all my affection since the first time I saw them.
Looking to the side, Elisabeth noticed that Rosi was looking at her lap and blushing, and looked like she was trying not to cry. Elisabeth took the girl’s hand in hers, giving it an affectionate squeeze. They never had the opportunity to meet the paternal grandfather as he was stolen by a cruel disease long before they were born. However, as fate would have it, they found that in Niki, who was as tender and affectionate to them as he was to his grandchildren by blood, who didn't hesitate to give his opinions and who was there to offer all the support they needed.
— But, I didn't want to talk about the good stuff. I really wanted to talk about the difficulties we face this year. These last few months have been very challenging for all of us, I have no doubt. But, I believe that it is in the worst moments that we find out who really loves us — he said — And the love I am referring to is not the one expressed in an 'I love you', a kiss or a hug. It's the one that's in a simple message asking how the other is doing or even in the eyes when you see the one you love. And this love, my dear ones, is priceless.
Elisabeth hesitated for a few seconds before looking up at Mathias, who was staring at her, an unreadable expression on her face. She knew her father was talking about the two of them and their shattered relationship. He had hurt her deeply with his words and actions, especially during their fight at Lennon's birthday party, when she had been called the lowest possible words simply for being in love with someone he didn't think was right for her.
— Therefore, I invite you to toast love with me. May he lead our family in this coming year. May he be the only feeling that is cultivated among all of us who are here. And may he be the strength that leads us towards even better days.
Raising her wine glass, Elisabeth just smiled at her father, while the sound of crystals touching sounded through the environment. After taking a sip, she looked at Mathias again. He continued to look at her, but at that moment, Elisabeth could see guilt in his eyes.
The family dinner was peaceful. Between conversations about Nico's retirement, the next trips to Ibiza and the anxiety of the dogs at their feet, waiting for crumbs to fall to the floor. However, the feeling of something heavy inside Elisabeth's chest continued, even with all the breathing techniques she had learned in therapy.
— Liesl, are you okay? — Toto whispered beside her, taking her fingers in his. She looked at him and smiled.
— Yes, I’m okay, dear — Elisabeth replied, picking up her glass of water and taking a sip. Toto kissed her hand and went back to his dinner, while she kept thinking about her father's words about love.
Elisabeth had never stopped loving Mathias, not even after he had called her a slut and thrown her and the man she loved out of his house. Mathias may have many faults, but he was a man who was true to his own values and opinions, something Elisabeth admired, in a way. Their bond had always been strong, through all the mishaps and disagreements, and it had never been tested until that damned Saturday in Spa.
After everyone finished eating, Elisabeth took it upon herself to take the dishes back to the kitchen and organize them in the dishwasher. There was something about the process that calmed her down, and she used the time alone to think. Occasionally, she was seized by some sort of mania about organization, and it had led to a few arguments with Toto. When it happened, Elisabeth decided to reorganize some room, drawer or space in the closet that belonged to him, and then he couldn’t find anything afterward.
She was trapped in her own thoughts about possibly rearranging the books in her Oxford office into alphabetical order, and jumped when she heard someone clear their throat behind her.
— Can we talk? — Mathias asked seriously.
Elisabeth hesitated for a second as she held a glass dish in her hand. It felt like deja-vu, just like the situation that had happened after Benedict's birthday. However, there was something in her brother's expression that didn't convey the same assurance that she had felt when she agreed to talk to Joanna.
Toto's mother had treated her completely differently that night, especially compared to the first time they had met. There was much more respect and even a certain affection. But Mathias hadn't shown any change in his attitude towards her and Toto. That was what scared her the most, especially because of Benedict and Rosi.
— I don't know if we have something to talk about — Elisabeth replied softly, placing the platter inside the dishwasher.
— Yes, we do, Elschen — he said — We have a lot to talk about.
Hearing him call her by her nickname made something clench inside her chest. It had been a long time since he'd last referred to her that way, and even though his voice didn't carry the same warmth as before, Elisabeth had missed it.
Looking back at her brother, she crossed her arms.
— Well, start talking, then.
Mathias pressed his lips together hesitantly. Then he said something Elisabeth didn't expect.
— I wanted to apologize to you, Elschen.
She blinked.
— Apologize?
— Yes.
— Why?
He sighed.
— Because I'm a shit brother. I was selfish with you, with dad, with our entire family. All because I couldn't accept that you also have the right to make your choices, no matter what they are, and to be respected for them, the same way Lukas and I were.
Elisabeth glared at him.
—Why couldn't you respect my choices? — she asked, dryly.
— Because I thought you were doing the wrong thing. I thought dad would be mad at you and I wanted to, I don’t know, protect you from his anger, because I already felt his anger. I didn't want you to be sad, or for him to be sad, either — her brother said, running a hand through his hair.
— So, you thought the best thing to do would be to blackmail me?
— I was trying to convince you that what you were doing was crazy. I had no idea that the relationship between the two of you was already so… Entrenched. I thought it was just an affair, just a physical thing, and that’s it. I really didn't think there was love involved. And I found out there was love involved when Toto walked into my office at Lenny's party.
— After you called me a slut, a cunt, a bitch, and a whore, you mean?
— I apologize for that too, Elschen. You are none of those things, quite the contrary. I've always been, and I'm still proud to have you as a sister. And nothing will change that inside of me.
— The way you've treated me these last few months, it didn't seem like you were proud of me. Actually, you made it pretty clear that you were disgusted with me — she muttered.
— Fuck, Elschen, can't you just see my side of this?
— Can you see mine? — Elisabeth countered — I was doing everything to keep my relationship with Toto protected, not just for us, but for the sake of his children. I didn't want to bring media attention to us and therefore them because I know how cruel the media can be.
— I know that too, Elisabeth.
— No, you don’t! — she continued, her voice rising — You don't know what it’s like because most press about you just relates to your driving. You’ve never had to read in a magazine that you're fat, that you're not graceful like your mother, that you're an ugly fucking duckling. You never had to hide during recess at school because you're a fucking joke to everyone.
Mathias blinked, a little shocked.
— I did what I did, I lied, I made excuses, I deceived everyone because I wanted to protect the people I loved. I wanted to protect Toto, his kids, mom and dad, you and Lukas. I did all this juggling for you, and when I needed you, you buried a knife in my back.
— Elschen…
— I really wish I could forgive you right now, Mathias. I really want to look at you and tell you that it’s fine and that I want to take our relationship back to where we were, but I can't. It's not like you don't really know me and you're acting on the wrong first impression. You've known me since the day I was born, Mathias. You know exactly how I am, what I think, and my weaknesses, and you used them against me.
Her brother swallowed hard, not saying a word.
— You always knew that I love dad more than anything in the world and that I’d never do anything to hurt him. The first thing you did after the shit that happened with my Instagram was tell him. You went to send a fucking audio saying that you were at dad's disposal to solve my situation the easy or the hard way.
— Did you hear the audio?
Niki played the audio for her and Toto during his first dinner with Niki and Marlene as her boyfriend. The anger in Mathias' voice, and the harsh words stuck in Elisabeth's mind, even though Niki seemed to think it was funny.
— Yes. And be honest, what did you think you were going to do to solve my situation together with dad? Would you go all the way to Oxford and drag me out of my house by the hair? Would you try to kill Toto? Or both of us?
— I thought I'd talk to you two — he murmured.
— Like you talked to me in Spa? I'm sorry, Mathias, but I don’t believe a word you say.
— Elisabeth…
She ran a hand over her face. She wanted to end this conversation.
— Look, Mathias, I only have one thing to say to you — Elisabeth said — Some things never change. You will forever be my brother and I will always love you. However, I can't pretend that you didn't hurt me with the worst possible weapon, which is the love I feel for our father. You destroyed my trust in you.
— I already asked…
— An apology doesn't change the past, Mathias — Elisabeth cut him off — An apology is like tearing a page out of a notebook after having written a wrong word with a pen. And, I'm sorry, but it's too soon for me to tear out the page you've scribbled through.
He stared at her in silence, absorbing what she had just said. Turning to the dishwasher, she loaded some more silverware and closed the door, pressing a button to start the cycle. Then, with her head high and her heart sinking, Elisabeth looked at her brother.
— Excuse me — she said, solemnly, before leaving the kitchen, as well as Mathias, behind.

AIB Executive Board found family HC's
shout out to @bdanp, thank you for the lovely content, I wish to add my own.
Hehehe I love the idea of these fools being a dysfunctional family unit. I literally need semi-wholesome content on the beach members because otherwise I will lose it. The AIB fandom has really brought out my drive, bc I will be the change I wish to see in the fandom space. Uh, they are dysfunctional with a capital D, so this isn't entirely wholesome, but I'm writing this, so you can't be too surprised.
Today on the board; Aguni, Kuzuryuu, Mira, and Chishiya
-Aguni, Hatter, and Kuzuryuu are the father figures to the group. -Aguni and Hatter used to date but are still friends who maybe have lingering feelings. Who knows. -Aguni just fucking sighs and has to drag them around when they're being stupid, especially the militants. -Has a special soft spot for Arisu once he joins bc he's so hopeful and sweet, and he likes having a moral compass around. Arisu is also the only heart specialist who doesn't resort to murder -He's the only one Niragi listens to, which is why he's the only diamond orientated militant. -Hates the beach and everything it stands for, bc he knows it's a lie. He misses the Hatter before the beach ruined him, and his feelings for him are forever tainted. Tries not to make their history the beach's problem.
-Kuzuryuu didn't even realize he was a dad, he's just fucking there. He's the calm fatherly validation half the board craves, and he has 0 questions. -He has favorites, and it's the exec's diamond trio (Ann, Chishiya, and Niragi) -Fully supports Chishiya's tinkering hobby. Told him that if being a doctor didn't work out, then he should go into STEM. -Finds the entire beach to be a headache, but does genuinely care for the exec members. -Best friends with Mira, who's taken up the role as wine aunt. She's the one who convinced him to come check out the beach. They both help put the exec members into games they're good at.
-Mira interacts with everyone with a Gatekeep Gaslight Girlboss energy about her that freaks everyone else out. She's fully capable of making normal expressions, but chooses to smile her way through everything. -Unironically plays therapist to the exec board bc she was/is a licensed psychiatrist, and they're all so mentally fucked up. She does it in the 'I can't make you better or worse, but I can figure out what's so funky about you' kinda way. She mostly does this to Niragi and Arisu, and also maybe Hatter when he's around. -Casually threatens everyone's life subtly and offers 0 explanations. She's unironically the scariest person at the beach, bc she's so unsettling. -enjoys girls night with Ann, Kuina, and Usagi whenever she's invited, and gets her hair braided -She makes the most references to memes along with hatter, to the annoyance of literally everyone else.
-Chishiya stares in silent judgment whenever he has to fix up an injury, frequently pulls out the 'I'm just a med student' and 'i work with children' cards to get out of things. Makes jokes about just letting them die to scare them. -He wears hoodies everywhere he goes bc they're his comfort clothing item and no one comments on it. Uses big medical words in casual convo to irritate the execs. Autism creature #1, I'm right. -Hates being touched unless he initiates it or gives permission, and is very firm about this boundary. Arisu once tried to hug him and got tased. He didn't try again.
-Silent rage towards Ann for being so goddamn tall. Wears chunky sneakers to appear slightly taller (a/n no genuinely, look in the show those are 2-inch shoes) -He sees Niragi as the worst version of himself, and it honestly freaks him out sometimes. Entirely neutral on his existence most of the time, but finds bickering with him amusing. -Chishiya simply doesn't express himself like everyone else, but he does feel the normal range of human emotions. Mira mentioned him possibly being neurodivergent.
-Kuzuryuu is his dad and that's fine with him
Comeback next time for the rest, bc it's like 3 pages on my Google Docs, and that's too much for one post.

An AU idea that I just call Modern AU cuz I'm creative.
I want a functioning Star wars family. But like with Starkiller. I think it would be funny if Anakin a tired dadTM tried to fill the hole in the family that stan queen Padme left but he won't marry anyone else bc well there ain't no badass woman in the galaxy like Padme so he decides to adopt Galen death is a social construct Marek who I made the same age (for chaos purposes) the twins. The twins are chaotic af Luke is a ray of sunshine and Leia is the sunshine protector. She will play fist fight god with whoever insults her boys. Han definitely not pinning for Leia Solo is also making an appearance but the focus is on the Skywalkers. Obi-wan is the wine aunt who has more arguments with Anakin than the whole family combined. Ashoka is the youngest sibling of the trio (all Anakin and Ashoka are the adopted siblings of Obi-wan) is just filming the whole thing and makes a blog titled: Living with the Skywalkers. The Fetts are also there and while they are running a successful café business they make sure that no one dies and nothing burns. Oh and all this in a modern world. Palpatine is trying to ruin the family and has something to do with the car crash that took Padme's life. And if it isn't a coincidence that Galen's parents also died in a car crash. Hmmmmm. But who could blame that raisin ass old man politician for three people's death. It's just silly. Also Juno haunts Galen's every day what a healthy relationship.
If god and anime is on my side I will post this fic I want this more than Disney making Rey a lovable character. Peace✌️

Tumblr media Tumblr media
These are my ocs! They're a trio of silly goobers but you can break them up if you want lmao
Their names are: Storm knight(left) they/them, Rose knight(right) she/her and Beella(stand alone drawing)it/it's (note that beella is a lot smaller than the other two
Tumblr media
Height reference for ya (they're just far away in this drawing btw 💀))
Personalitys (and a tad of lore):
Storm is the brain of the group, they are very calm and controlled and often the one telling Rose and Beella to not do dumb stuff, an introverted extrovert. Got fucked up thanks to THE WAR so uhh they prefer more calm envioriments as they are a retired warrior, was called storm as they were one of the most powerful warriors there with the elemantal power of electrecity. Very hard to get on their nerves as they have mastered the art of mindindg their own bussiness :]
The best way i can describe Rose is a rich wine aunt that still thinks she's in her mid 20 but still the coolest woman you'll meet, except the wine is just rose tea lol, a complete extrovert, she's very laid back but still serious when necesary. She's the guardian of the sacred garden, a garden that contains all sorts of extinct and non-extinct powerful plants and trees, said garden is located meters up from floraria and it's some sort of unreachable sanctuary for the florarians. she's a very reactive person but tries to keep herself calm most of the time
Beella is just A Little Guy™, some might say it's a defective dark matter as it can feel good emotions like happiness and empathy but it prefers to call itself the superior version, it's still kinda weird and crazy but it doesn't any harm ^_^ it kinda acts like a child as it is very inmature but it's learning!. It hides itself in the garments it has collected trying to pass as a puff because since the time it scaped zero's grasp it was always facinated by the puffs and how they lived, it found itself getting trapped in the middle of a battle field not knowing where to go; while trying to leave they found a wounded warrior who was trying to call in for help so it protected them until help came their way managing to gain a little positive reputation from it+someone who wasn't afraid of them! It stayed by the warriors side thru the whole remainder of the war and the rest is history :]
Something i wanna note is that Storm and Rose are married and Beella is like their adoptive child :]
