school sl×t pt.1
You've always been the go-to person at dchool when someone wanted to hook up with someone. No, they didn't hook up with you... you helped them get themselves a person for themselves.
The way you'd matchmake people was so... natural. Yet you'd never had someone fulfil your desires. Every night you'd lie on the bed, naked, rubbing yourself to the thought of someone using you for themselves.
And one day, it happened. It was quite the normal start. You wore a small white bikini top under your unbuttoned varsity jacket, and a short skirt. You drove to school, went through your first few classes and was at the locker to keep your books before lunch.
"Yo Vicky!!" A boy ran up to you. Jason, that was. Jason dragged along a smaller boy with him. He seemed young and short next to Jason, but he was older and taller than you.
The new boy near Jason was quiet and seemed to be shy. "Jason. I've hooked you up with 7 girls already this week. It's only the 4th day." You say, shutting the locker. The sudden wind flapped your unbuttoned varsity jacket, your half covered boobs making a short peek.
You didn't notice that, but the new boy did. "This one's Nate. Nate thinks he's gay, because he's never liked a girl before. I think he's straight. Help him figure that shit out will ya?" Jason asks you.
"There's Lily. She'll give you a boobjob if you'd like." You say, looking at the curvy girl walking across.
"No Vicky. He wants you." Jason says. You freeze. That's a first. "Never been to pound town Vicky?" Jason teases you. "Fuck you Jason." You curse.
"Then?" He shoots back. "Fine. Whenever you want." You look at Nate, who curtly nods. "Come after lunch. We can bunk the lessons after it." Jason says.
You nod and bid goodbye and go to the girls lavatory. You look at yourself, and smirk, touching all your makeup up and putting perfume on. You stay there for the rest 30 minutes, not feeling hungry. When the bell rings, there's a rush of footsteps and you wait till its quiet. When it is, you quietly slip your panties off and keep it in your small bag. You jog off to the exit and see Nate waiting.
He's sitting on a motorbike. "Come on." He says. You smile, and throw one leg on the other side, hopping behind him. Your clit makes contact eith the warm seat, and you hold back a moan.
You stick to Nate, as he speeds to somewhere. After a few minutes you reach an alleyway, with a small apartment. He has his own house, and he takes you there.
You follow, thighs clenching to give yourself friction. Wordlessly, you drop on your knees and unbuckle his pants. You pull his boxers down and take his cock in your hand. He hisses as you slowly apply pressure.
The doorbell rings. Jason walks in. "Well you two, sorry, but his tutor's coming over." He says.
Nate snaps at Jason and dresses. He angrily sits on the table. "Nate." You say, "I'll suck you off, u der the table."
He thinks, but you dive under the table anyways. You carefully pull just his hard, leaking cock out. You waste no time in pulling it into your mouth. Nate groans.
You Bob your head, swirling your tongue around his cock. You get so wet, you subconsciously hump the ground. Someone sticks a dildo under the table.
You see it. Jason waves it at you, bending to give it. You take it, sitting on it. Jason smirks as he sits on the couch with a phone.
Nates let out quiet grunts and moans, and he cums in your throat. But I stead of pulling out, you suck him with the cum in your mouth.
And then your dildo.... it vibrates. You moan muffled, looking at Jason. Its remote controlled you realise. Your moans increase and the cum in your mouth drips out.
You swallow it, gagging on Nate's cock. The door opens and you see a girl's feet walk to the other side of the table. It's probably the tutor. Nate grasps onto your hair as your throat clenched around his cock as you swallow.
The dildo quietly vibrates in you, and you decide to lay low for now. Your lips still around his cock, you take him in full and rest your forehead on his lap.
PT 2 IN NEXT ASK

The Criminal And The Princess II
Grumpy!College!Eddie X Sunshine!Skater!Reader
Tumblr media
Summary : Edens dad is pushing her to breaking point, but when Steve Harrington suggests going to a gig, they stumble upon who she never thought she’d see.
Word Count : 2k
Warnings : not much eddie (i’m sorry), shitty parents, once again talk of eating, girlhood, nancy is sad, swearing, billy hargrove.
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~
“Again!”
“Dad I have to go I have class,” I sighed, skating towards him. “Regionals are coming up how are you expecting to win if you’re still so sloppy?” he snapped at me.
“Maybe I don’t want to win! Maybe I don’t even wanna go to fucking regionals!”
“Don’t you dare talk to me like that!”
“I’m telling you the truth!”
“Your mother-“ I didn’t give him the chance to finish, “I’m not mom!”
With a deep breath, i spoke calmly, “I know you miss her, god dad I do too, but me skating, won’t bring her back.” The man who I love so dearly didn’t say a word, his dark eyes stern. “Just go Eden.”
“Dad-“
“And don’t worry about dinner on Friday.”
“Dad come on-“
“You need to lose the weight anyways.” I sucked in a breath, but said nothing more as I watched the greying man walk up the stairs and slamming the door to his office.
Rubbing my hand to my face I sat down on the cold plastic bench, taking off my skates and replacing them with my trainers. Throwing my oversized hoodie on, I headed out of the rink and to my car.
“E!” a voice called out.
“Harrington,” I replied, as the brunette jogged over the parking lot to me. “Hey- woah you look like shit!”
“Yeah 4:30 starts will do that to a girl,” I shrugged, throwing my bag in the back.
“Sorry that was rude of me,” he said, but I brushed him off with a smile. “What can I do for you Stevie boy?”
“So my friend has gig after the match on Friday, I was wondering if you wanted to come? Obviously I’ve invited the rest of the gang.”
“Did you really just say gang?”
“Yeah, I regret it, shut up. Do you wanna come?”
“I have training the next-“ my brows furrowed, dad’s words echoing in my head, “You know what, yeah it sounds fun.
“Great, I’m gonna text Robin all the details so, I’ll see you around.”
“See you.”
Well that was something to look forward too.
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~
Sat in class the professor droned on and on, Vickie was almost asleep besides me. I felt my phone buzz in pocket, taking it out I saw a message from Robin.
Robs : soooo a little dingus said you’re coming to a certain gig this friday? 👀
E : figured it was time i had some fun
E : lets be honest its a rare occasion
Robs : im actually so excited for this!!!!!
E : yeah me too, and you’re gonna be extra excited when i tell you who else is coming 😚
Putting my phone down on my notebook I nudged Vickie. “Hm,” she said rubbing her eyes, then brushed an auburn curl from her face.
“Sorry did I fall asleep?” I huffed a laugh,
“A little, but that’s not why I’m waking you. Are you free Friday?”
“I think so yeah, what’s up?”
“Wanna come to a gig?”
“Who’s gig?”
“Not sure yet, but me and a few friends are going, Nancy, Steve, oh and you know Robin right?”
“R-robin?” she stuttered.
“Yeah! I could text you the details, it’d be nice to hang out when we’re not studying.”
She nodded, cheeks flushed slightly, “Yeah cool, just text me.” I returned the nod, picking my phone back up.
Robs : who???
Robs : ????
Robs : did you die???
E : lmao no very much alive
Robs : who’s coming???
E : Vickie
Robs : …
E : love youuuuuu 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Robs : EDEN I SWEAR TOENDJSKSJSKSJJDJD
With a laugh I put my phone away and attempted to focus on this mind numbing lecture.
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~
Friday rolled around really quickly, people were so ready for the weekend already. Who knew summer break would be missed already.
“I’m still not over the fact your dad said that to you?” Nancy said, whilst taming her curls.
“It’s fine, it’s not like it’s out of the ordinary.”
“Are you sure I can’t kick him in the throat?”
“I really don’t wanna have to bail you out of jail Robs.”
She hummed, “Yeah that’s true, would not look good for my future.”
“Dads are so shit!” Nancy exclaimed out of nowhere. “Nance-“ I began.
“No! I Robins dad walked out, your dad bullies you and my dad acts like I don’t fucking exist. Why do these men have kids and then treat them like trash?”
The girl was flinging her arms around like crazy, huffing angrily. “Nance, but the hairbrush down you’ll hurt yourself,” Robin said. The girl placed it to the floor, kneeling down behind her, I met her gaze in the mirror.
“What happened?” I asked. She looked at me with glassy eyes. “Mom called, yesterday she was going out to that meal, you know the one for her friends birthday?”
Me and Robin both gave her affirming nods, “Well Mike was working a shift at the record store and dad was picking Holly up from school,” she let out a shaky breath.
“It’s okay,” I said, hugging her from behind, resting my chin on her shoulder. “He forgot her, was sat at home watching a game. She was there for hours, when Mike came home he found him passed out on the couch.”
“Is Holly okay?” Robin asked, sliding off Nancys bed and down next to us. The brunette nodded, “Yeah, a teacher stayed with her and Mike went to get her. Mom got so mad and then you know what he said?”
I rubbed her shoulder, and Robin squeezed her hand. “He said, ‘Oh Nancy was supposed to get her,’” she choked on a sob, “He didn’t even know I was gone!”
“Oh Nance,” I said, pulling her back to hug me, Robin went to her front, wrapping her arms around us both. “Dads are the worst,” Robs said. “They really are!” I agreed.
“I swear Jonathan, Will and El are the only ones who got a decent one!” Robin laughed. “H-Hoppers a good man,” Nancy sniffled.
“You know what we’re gonna do tonight?” I asked pulling away from the hug, going to face Nancy, I wiped the tears from her face.
“What?” she asked.
“We’re gonna go to that game and cheer on our guy Harrington! And then, we’re gonna go to that gig and drink and dance and celebrate the badass women who raised us!”
“That sounds like the best plan,” Robin smiled, “You up for it Nance?”
“Yeah! Let’s go celebrate our moms.”
“And also get Robin a girlfriend!”
Me and Nancy laughed as Robin fell back, groaning into her hands. “What about you? You got your eye on anyone?” Nancy asked, cleaning up her tear stained face.
“Nah.”
“Oh come on E!”
“Seriously there’s nobody,” I laughed. “Plus I’m happy enough being wingwoman, I mean you and Johnny are getting to 2 years now?”
“Yeah,” the girl couldn’t hide her smile, “Speaking of, he’ll be here soon so, get ready!” She shooed us out of her room with a laugh.
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~
“Come on Harrington!” I cheered, jumping up and down. The game was almost over and our guys were down 6 points. Jonathans friend Argyle let out a loud whoop as the puck hit the back of the net.
“Let’s go dingus!” Robin shouted. I looked up from the ice briefly, my eyes meeting my fathers. His face looked like its normal stern self, but he looked sad?
I know I shouldn’t have yelled at him, specially not about mom, but god he shouldn’t have said the things he did either.
Suddenly I felt arms wrapped around me and the siren went, signalling the game was over. “We won!” Robin screamed. I looked at the score board, we were up by 2 points.
With a smile, I put my arms around the girl, giving her a squeeze. Leaning over the side of the seats, Steve walked past, “Go on Harrington!” we all cheered for him, making him smile bashfully.
“I’ll meet you guys after,” he said walking away. “No cheers for me Eden?” a vile voice came. “In your dreams Hargrove.”
“Oh they’re more than cheers in the dreams gorgeous.”
“Gross, “Robin said from behind me.
“You okay Benny?” Jonathan asked. Benny was a nickname he’d decided on when we were in kindergarten, apparently Eden was a weird name, but I thought Johnathan was too old so,” All good Johnny.”
The rink soon cleared out and we decided to wait by our cars for Steve. “Eden,” a deep voice called from behind. Dad was stood at the end of the hallway, Robin held my hand, Nancy appearing on the other side.
“It’s okay, I’ll catch up,” I said, walking towards the man. “What’s up?” I asked.
“I … I just wanted to apolo-“ he was cut off when the team of hollering boys ran by, Steve being one of them.
“Coach Bennett,” the boy smiled, swinging his arm over my shoulder. “Steve, good match,” the man offered him a smile, I hadn’t had one of those in a long time.
“Sorry I interrupted,” Steve spoke.
“It’s okay, what did you want to say dad?”
“Take a break this weekend, no training, but I expect you to do a morning and evening practice on Monday. Yrene is back from maternity leave so she’ll be training you.”
I sighed, but spoke through gritted teeth, “Great, thanks dad.” I turned to Steve, “Let’s go,” almost dragging the boy down the hall.
“We could get lunch on Sunday?” My dad called after me.
“What?”
“Lunch. I know dinner isn’t an option tonight, go have fun. Let me know if you’re free Sunday.” I gave him a nod, before I did drag Steve down the hall.
“That was weird,” he said when we got out into the fresh hair, you could feel that autumn was rolling around fast. “I know, who knew that Ethan Bennett wasn’t always an ass,” I said.
“Everything okay?” Nancy asked as we headed to the car. “Yeah all good, now let’s go!”
“What’s the name of the band your friends in again?” Jonathan asked.
“Corroded Coffin, and I gave you the address right?” Jonathan nodded, consuming, “The hideout right?”
“Yeah that’s the one, E does that friend of yours need a ride?”
I felt Robin go stiff beside me, “Vickie? Nah she’s being dropped off by her brother.”
“Cool, let’s go then!”
“I swear I’m gonna kill you,” Robin muttered. “What was that?” She gave me a sickly sweet smile, linking our arms, “Nothing!”
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~
The bar known as The Hideout was packed, I recognised some faces from college, everyone was here to have a good time. Onto your second drink, I smiled as I saw a familiar redhead.
“Vickie!” I called out.
“Hey,” she smiled, making her way through a crowd of people. “Come and meet the guys.” Taking her hand I led her over to my friends.
“Everyone!” I shouted to get their attention, “This is Vickie, we’re in history together.”
She raised a hand, offering a smile to them. “Vickie this is Steve, Nancy, Jonathan,” he cringed when I said his name,” Argyle and you know Robin.”
“Yeah, hi,” she smiled.
“Hey um … can I get you a drink?”
“Uh yeah sure, cool.” Oh my god they were so cute. When the pair walked away me and Nancy squealed.
“Alright folks we have our next act of the evening for you, give it up for Indianas own, Corroded Coffin!” A man shouted into the mic.
The five of us walked into the crowd getting to the front, standing by the stage, I was excited to see Steve’s buddy.
Out walked 3 boys, one sitting behind the drum set and the others picking up guitars. Taking a sip of my drink, I regretted it right away, almost choking when I saw the final member walk out on stage.
“Holy shit!” I exclaimed.
“Good evening Indiana!” he shouted. He looked so different, so alive, his curls falling down his back, freely allowed to do so. His dark eyes shining with mischief and joy.
“We’re Corroded Coffin and we’re here to rock your world for the next hour or so! Are! You! Ready!”
~ / / / * \ \ \ ~

Hey Erin!! Am loving your work - always a highlight of my day! One of my fav scenes is the boobies scene with Steve and Robin - do you think your imagination could come up with something? Steve and reader are together, and she’s in the car with the two while they talk boonies and Steve says he loves the reader’s boobies and she gets embarrassed etc - just a thought?
This is one of my FAVORITE Robin and Steve scenes can you just imagine the chaos of the three of them (Steve, Robin and reader) together?! 😂
Honestly Steve saying boobies makes me giggle yet if he were to bust out the word tits I’d be red as a tomato 🤣
Tumblr media
Pep Talks With Steve
Steve Harrington x Reader (ft. Robin)
“Do you know who pauses Fast Times at 53 minutes, 5 seconds?!” your beloved boyfriend Steve, exclaimed.
Robin shook her head glumly, but Steve didn’t give her a chance to reply.
“People who like boobies, Robin! Boobies!”
“Ew, gross, don’t say boobies!” she hollered back.
“It’s not a big deal! Okay?” Steve shouted over her, “I like boobies, you like boobies! Vickie likes boobies! Definitely!”
You followed them both, head turning back and forth like you were watching a tennis game. You were in the backseat, but more than privy to the conversation. You had yet to add anything because you were too amused by the banter between Steve and Robin.
Vickie was a girl that Robin had been seriously crushing on for a while. On the way to drop Robin off for school before you and Steve went in to work, he’d been trying to encourage her to ask Vickie out. Thus, it lead to a Steve Harrington pep talk about boobies, apparently.
Robin, naturally, was too scared to ask Vickie out, not entirely sure if Vickie was the same as Robin. She’d stated that she’d become a town pariah if she made that mistake. But still, Steve had a feeling things would work out. He was always such an encourager to his loved ones and it was such a sweet and loveable aspect of him.
After that conversation, it had snowballed into Steve telling Robin that Vickie returned Fast Times paused at 53 minutes, 5 seconds. Which happened to be the infamous Phoebe Cates topless scene. The amount of horndogs who’d rented the copies at Family Video just for that scene alone was hilarious.
How Steve had caught that from Vickie’s return was curious, though. It still didn’t seem to convince Robin though because she just shook her head, looking thoroughly exasperated by Steve. He was looking over at her, having just declared he was certain that Vickie liked boobies.
“Eyes on the road, babe,” you scolded him, “I’d like Robin to make it to school in one piece and for us to actually arrive at work.”
“Sorry,” he apologized, sending you a glance in the rearview mirror, before looking at Robin again.
“It’s boobies!” he exclaimed, as if that explained everything.
Robin just rolled her eyes, looking out the passenger’s side window. You sat forward in the middle seat, until you were practically smack between them.
“You know, I hope these boobies you’re talking about loving are mine, Steve,” you teased.
He rolled his eyes now, as if it was obvious.
“Of course, Y/N. Boobies are just amazing in general. God’s gift to man, if you will.”
“You’re such a man,” you groaned.
“But your boobs are incredible,” Steve said, glancing over at you.
“He does have a point, your boobs are great,” Robin pointed out.
Steve smirked, reaching over with his left hand, giving one of them a squeeze through your shirt before you slapped his hand away, face burning.
“Behave yourself young man, I swear,” you chided.
“All I’m saying is I can see why Robin likes boobies,” Steve smirked, eyes meeting yours in the rearview mirror, “They’re great. I get a great eyeful when you wear certain tops, I can play with them, rest my hand on them, hold them. Oh you should hear the sounds she makes when I suck on her-”
“Finish that sentence and I’m not having sex with you for six months,” you growled, hiding your embarrassment behind your hands.
“Like you could resist me,” he laughed.
Robin throughout all of this had been cracking up. At least this weird turn of conversation to your own boobs had brightened her mood.
“I have no idea how he managed to go on a tangent about my boobs, but here’s what I think, Robin,” you said, turning to her, “Just give Vickie a chance and see where it goes. You’ll never know unless you try and we both want to see you happy.”
Steve pulled up to the school’s drop off and Robin sighed, looking at you both.
“Fine. I’ll think about it,” she said.
“Better than nothing,” you lamented to Steve.
She grabbed her backpack and slung it over her shoulder as she climbed out of the car.
“Have a good day!” you called, “Don’t forget what we discussed.”
“Your boobs?” she replied with a wry smile.
You gave her a look.
“You know what I mean.”
With a wave to the two of you, she turned, heading towards the school building. As Steve pulled away from the curb, he glanced back at you with a devious smile.
“We’ll have at least 15 minutes before opening when we get to work. What do you say? Quickie in the break room before our shift starts? You know, to test my theory of boob greatness,” he smirked at you.
You smothered your laugh with your hand, gaze darting away from his.
“Dream on, Steve.”

Who’s going to die in s5 and does anyone even need to die?
putting my thoughts on this out there now because i'm curious how they will hold up with s5 canon or if the characters that i think are narratively untouchable will bite it in the opening
because objectively, no, no one needs to die. not every story needs to kill off major characters to be "dramatic". strangers things has even gone out of it's way to avoid doing that since it’s first season. the characters that Do die are always ones that were introduced in the same season with the specific purpose of dying. Barb, Alexei, Eddie, all the vecna victims
they even skirt killing main characters, like how Eddie in s4 seems to be the placeholder for Steve since they didn’t want to kill him yet. there’s also interviews saying they wanted to kill him in s1 or 2 but then didn’t because they liked his character and wanted to keep him in the story. (also a fan favourite character too yk). similarly El was also supposed to die in s1, but even before st becomes a multi season show it's implied she’s alive right in the last minutes of s1
so while St sure loves killing people (see just how many people died in lab massacre 1 in 1979, lab massacre 2 in 1984, and the flesh flayer human meat incident) you’re pretty save as long as you’re a main character and survived your first season on the show
so s5 continuing with that and not killing any main characters is definitely an option, they don't need to kill. no matter how much the audience is waiting for "stakes" to be set, not every story needs to kill it's characters
on the other hand, there’s also a lot that suggests they might kill someone for real this time. challenging the perceived safety of main characters in the last season with a world ending stakes set up in s4 seems reasonable. there’s also the more theoretical perspective that we're in the final season now and there’s no coming back for any of these characters anyway, no matter if they live or die. the logic of making it to the next season that saved some of their asses before no longer applies
it would also make sense and not be uncommon for a story to kill someone important during the final installment to make it apparent how BadTM it is. most of the audience is also aware by now that the show isn't killing long running mains so changing that rule would serve the final season well (especially if it happened before the last 2 episodes and put people more on edge for the finale, now that mains apparently aren't completely invincible anymore)
so leading up to s5, I really think the chance of them killing at least one major character for real this time is the highest it’s ever been. the question would just be, who? and I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone agree on this ever so I just want to go it over myself, get my thoughts on this out pre s5 spoilers rolling in. trying to evaluate how solid a build up for a death would be
going over various characters under the cut
there’s obviously some side characters that could reasonable die but I think would be the weakest choices, if not an outright joke at an attempt of “emotional impact” on the story
for example, they could kill Murray, there’s really nothing stopping them, but it wouldn’t be a very impactful death. the only one who has a real connection with him is Joyce. if they wanted to kill more than one character I can see them going for it, especially if they killed Murray earlier and had a bigger character die towards the end of the season. but otherwise, if he’s the only one dying it’d be funnily underwhelming. this also goes for Dimitri (depending on if he will be back for s5). easy to kill but would suck phenomenally as the only death
same for characters like Vicky and Argyle, who are both incredibly new characters so killing them would be very underwhelming. here with the added aspect of them both being minorities, and while you can obviously kill minority characters just fine, if they were the only characters dying it would look pretty bad compared to the 90% white and het cast that’d be alive. killing Vicky with her ongoing romance plot where they need to establish an entire relationship first would also be obviously stupid
moving to main and secondary characters of the show that have more significance. secondaries like:
Robin, who like Vicky and Argyle, would also be a weak choice. killing her at the end of her romance arc set up for s5 would be extremely unsatisfying in a way that doesn’t fit any of the shows themes. also again, killing just her would look horrible, and even if two people died, she’s been the public queer rep of the show before they officially had Will too post s4, would be kind of an insane choice to kill her
Steve on the other hand has much more merit to him. he’s the character we know the Duffers wanted to kill years ago and only held back due to the actors charisma and potential they saw for his story. and both of these points would be moot in a final season of the show. there’s also been enough foreshadowing of a death that would stand out on a rewatch and make it feel more planned. like the funnily long handshake he and Dustin have in s3 including Dustin stabbing Steve and him “dying”. killing him would also work to impact a significant number of characters as well as the audience since he IS a fan favourite. on the other hand, it would be a bit questionable to kill the other "guy that's close with Dustin" right after he had Eddie die on him. Eddie was a pretty clear place holder for Steve in s4, so killing Steve the season after wouldn’t be very different from a storytelling pov. but I could see them go for it, easy death, enough set up, potential to be upsetting, not whole show-vibe ruining
because compared to that, Hopper is someone I honestly don’t see dying at all. he not only had a full fake out death, the whole of s4 russia arc was about getting him back alive. if they just kill him anyways most of s4 will feel pretty pointless, especially after he’s Just at the point where he might see that he isn’t a curse on all the people around him. killing him would negatively impact his character growth AND fall flat with him already having died and come back right after. killing him fr right after he came back would honestly just be really funny, like, i don't know how serious people would even take it, i'd just expect him to come back again tbh
Joyce… is just kind of out there. killing her off would be brutal with how central of a character she is. her and Mike really were the two plot leading characters all the way back in s1 and her character seems to be a bit of a face of ST alongside with characters like El. it would also be rough on Will and Jonathan, like, character altered forever rough, so if she died these characters would have to change drastically. which would need her death to happen before the last two episodes if they wanted to do it justice. and killing her that early on would also feel odd with how much she’s a part of the core story. and of course there’s the whole deal with her just having gotten together with Hopper which should at least give her a few episodes of protection to explore that. overall, I think they could do it, but they would have to be insanely careful to pull it off well and I’m not sure it’s something they’d go for or something that's even possible to do well with only 8-9 episodes
Jonathan is someone a lot of people seem to think could die, but I also feel like a that idea comes from general lack of interest in his character. he Could die, yeah, it would also be interesting how characters dealt with it, but just like with Joyce, killing him off in the last episode would very much feel like a cheap kill for shock value since the strongest aspect of killing a character like him would be seeing the ripples it has over the story. and killing him would also put an extremely tragic end to his character arc which he hasn’t finished yet. he’s constantly parentified, steps back in favour of other people, he still couldn’t tell Nancy he wants something different than her for college, and so on. his s5 arc would have to focus more on his own growth over the series and accepting himself and his worth, so dying would be insanely tragic for him. again I feel like they Could do it, but it’s questionable if they’d be able to do it justice and not make it feel like his character is from a Shakespearean tragedy while everyone else is from a different genre
Just on reflex, Nancy is someone I don’t see dying. killing her would be really bold. all with her being one of the few women, and a character that's always been near the center of the story, and with her being the deciding party in the middle of a love triangle. but on the other hand, I could see some merit in killing her. she was the main leader in s4 and arguably already had her moment to shine when she shot Vecna (even if they still lost, it was arguably the most epically framed “win” moment of the season). she also finally got some closure on Barb’s death, ie. knowing Vecna killed her. you could also definitely argue that it would be interesting if Nancy was the one to ultimately die instead of the vision where she saw her mom, Holly, and Mike, dead (or implied to be dead, she doesn't say the word). so the longer I think about it, the more I could see a positive impact on the story. but it'd still be rough, and it would mean upsetting both Jancy and Stancy shippers by having neither have a happy ending, which, actually, would be kind of interesting, but I’m not sure the Duffers would go for
and then there’s of course the kids where it gets really hard imo. both based on the tone of ST and how it would be insanely dark
Erica is just someone I genuinely don’t think they can kill, ever. she’s the absolute youngest, also one of their 3 poc characters. don’t see any reality where she dies. they already didn't handle her character particularly well since her introduction so, no way they're insane enough to kill her
similar to my point about Hopper earlier, I also don’t see Max dying at all. she almost died in s4 during her initial encounter with Vecna, barely survived, and then got got for real and was dead pre El reviving her. her dying for real in s5 wouldn’t hit particularly hard anymore after she starts the season lost in some variation of a coma. her s5 arc already has to be about finding her, and presumably her dealing with the trauma of waking up. also whatever role she plays in the season, since we don’t know how many episodes it'll take before we can get her thoughts and actions again. killing her at the end would be kind of repetitive and absolutely fuck her character arc over since she just realized how badly she wanted to live regardless of her depression
El's character would also not have any benefit from dying, it would actively cut her character arc short, which has been a central point of every season up to now. her whole deal is learning that she’s not a monster that’s responsible for everything and figuring out who she actually wants to be as a person that can make her own decisions. her ending the series dying or sacrificing herself like so many people seem to think she will would be very weak writing imo. having her finally reach a point in s5 where she's free of Brenner, and guilt over what happened, and her het relationship with her boyfriend who doesn’t love her, and finally starts to realize who she wants to be, only to have her make the decision to die for the people she loves would just suck. it’d be compelling... if ST was a drama story and trying to tell a story of hopelessness. which is not at all what ST has been up until now and is also not what anyone involved has said s5 to be
Will is also unkillable without completely breaking the genre of the show. people are right that him dying in s5 would be full circle to s1. and showing the inevitability of the UD killing him after all and how he couldn’t get away would be fun sure, but it’s not stranger things. aside from actors already having said Will gets some form of happy ending, killing him just wouldn’t work. everyone was trying to get him back alive all the way back in s1. him eventually dying after all is a cool concept in theory, but it doesn’t work with the show at all
Mike is also hard to kill. with Byler happening, it would be insane to kill either of the two parties right after having them get together or confirm each other’s feelings. Mike is one of the characters with the most consistent allusions to something bad happening, especially in s4, with the whole set up of “hasn’t unpacked yet”, jaws poster, “death count is going to rise”, and Nancy’s whole vision about him presumably dying, but it’s much more likely he just won’t have a good time in s5, not die. he already had a fake out death as far back as s1 with the cliff, so if they want the show to go “full circle” they could just have him almost die again, or have someone Think he died for a bit. perma killing him just doesn't work with the mleven to byler arc they set up for s5
Lucas doesn’t have any death flags and there would be no benefit in killing him. killing Will for example would at least be interesting on a meta writing level if you disregard the genre of the show, but killing Lucas would just… feel insanely unjust, he's just a kid who already went through writing fuckery in s4. he also almost lost Max, and his s5 arc seems to be very focused on her and helping her. killing him off right after Max survived would just be plain bad. do not see Lucas dying in any reality
And Dustin is my "if they had to kill a kid". there Are some lines you could definitely catch on a rewatch post death that would make it feel less out of nowhere, be it the “if you die I die” said to Steve, or Suzie talking about Dustin feeling like it could foreshadow a death. Dustin also doesn’t have the protection someone like Mike has, where he’s in the central gay childhood best friends to lovers plotline
overall, I think Vicky and Argyle are essentially guaranteed to be fine. there’d be not much emotional payoff for the audience and only the killing of the few diverse characters of the cast. Robin would also be hard to kill without making it look weird with her just introduced romantic interest. Hopper and Max are too much “been there done that” to die for real. and the kids dying would at best seriously derail the expectations the show set until now and negatively fuck some of their character arcs over at worst
so. tldr, my thoughts on this: killing Joyce is possible imo, but extremely hard to do justice. similar sentiment about Jonathan, even more so bc it directly conflicts with his character's core struggle. killing Nancy would probably be the most interesting choice to go for, to me, if done well, but it’s something I don’t really see happen in the show. Steve seems like the most likely choice to die since he’d be a pretty easy kill, the audience and a significant amount of characters like him so it would have impact, there’s enough death flags to make it seem foreshadowed… would just work really well. and if any of the kids died it would have to be Dustin imo, even though I’m still of the belief that they won’t touch the kids when it comes to killing characters
also, Murray's just a free kill to me, not impactful enough on the characters to fully derail character arcs but still with the show long enough to be a bit sad to see go. if they’d kill only him it would be a bit wasted because it would feel like a copout of killing an impactful character, but if they want to kill a primary character and make stakes higher by killing someone else, Murray is the easiest to turn to for that, especially if they want someone to die in the earlier episodes
and this is just about the "main" characters (as a broad term here). characters that could also ofc die are other kids parents, police officers we know like Callahan, other side characters like Mr Clarke or the mayor. but most of these would not really have much impact on the story and would pass more as casualties along the way
the Wheelers are a bit of an in-between here, because while none of them get regular main character focus and don’t even know about the UD, they still come back every season on a personal level and have the most solid characterization out of side characters. Karen even has a noteworthy character arc, which none of the other side characters have. Holly will be fine honestly, Ted is really just there, not much screen time, i don't really see much benefit in having him die, if he did it would most likely have to be in passing or in mass casualties. so Karen would be the one I could realistically see be compelling to kill. as a side character I’d put her on a Murray level, where she’s consistently on screen and everyone knows her but she’s not really someone people would be upset for days about
the Murray treatment also goes for someone like Owens btw, where I could easily see him die as a side note (not as the main death). he's been with the show for a while but doesn't have enough impact on the story to really force you to keep him alive. there's for sure info we can still get from him in s5, but after we have a full picture of what happened with El and Henry at the lab and how Owens was involved there's really nothing keeping him alive as a character
and everyone's done, wall of thoughts over!
that’s where I’m at with all the characters as of now, especially from looking at their past arcs up to s4. I’m just really curious how this will hold up with the actual s5. Maybe they’ll just go in bold and kill someone I would have said has a 0 chance of dying right away, who knows who knows

And once again, a day at Family Video:
"So? How did it go this time?"
"Oh yeah, I've totally got a date."
"Do you really, though?"
Steve sighs. Sometimes knowing each other inside out is more of a curse than a blessing.
"That's what I thought. Get the You-Suck-Board out of the back"
"Sure thing Your Majesty"
"Excuse me? If anything I would be elected by the people, King Steve"
Whenever she hears anyone else say one of his old shameful nicknames at school, she will make sure to "accidentally" hit them very hard in the face during football practice. Or PE. Or sometimes just in the hallway, if they have no classes that overlap. Or the balls, if he is a real buttface. "With my luck I would rearrange his features into something less hideous" is her justification when Steve winces in second-hand sympathy. He truly adores her with everything he has.
Whenever he hears someone else use "dyke" or "fairy" or "queer" as an insult, he will glare at them so hard they never dare wear their current outfit again. Ever. If there is one thing years of being a jackass taught him, it is to give the most judgmental stare you can imagine.
They are also not above inventing a bullshit excuse to demand extra fees if it happens in the shop. He and Robin consider it compensation for having to listen to such bullshit with their own two poor queer little ears. Somehow Keith hasn't caught up yet.
Steve sighs. Again. It is truly impressive how much of an effect Robin can have on him without even physically being there.
" Alright-y, Dyke-y."
But Steve isn't anyone else, and neither is Robin. They are Steve and Robin and they are soulmates. It is almost like exposure therapy, in a way. Hearing it so often from someone they know will never really mean it takes away some of the sting when others use it maliciously. Steve didn't even have the designated-self-loathing-hour that normally follows the last time Mike sneered one of his old nicknames at him. (Didn't stop Robin from "accidentally" spilling her milkshake on him later. Steve only felt a little bit bad for laughing.)
"I can still hear you breathing on the phone. Dingus."
"So sorry. I was just waxing poetry about how meaningful our friendship-"
"Well I am about to start waxing poetry about what a loser you are. Loser."
Steve gives her a middle-finger she cannot see but is satisfactory either way, and places the phone back on the table. For a second he considers hanging up for a few moments if only to save a few cents. But it isn't he who is going to have to pay the phonebill and the job sucks anyway, so he doesn't. That's what Keith gets for his blatant favoritism.
He goes back to the phone after giving himself a point in the Gay-Jokes-Board. If she truly wanted him to play fair, she should've come to work instead of blowing him off because of "sickness" or some bullshit. Karma, bitch.
Another customer enters. He takes a short look at the door and braces himself. To be honest, flirting with girls isn't nearly as fun without Robin's silent running commentary. By now he doesn't even expect a second date, he does it mostly to have something to do while everyone he knows is at school. But he knows that Robin truly is at home feeling miserable right now (she even skipped band practice yesterday. And nothing comes between Robin and band practice), so when he sees the flowing dress entering through the door he is already mentally preparing himself for another conversation that will make him cringe at 2 AM and steal his sleep for the next week. The things he does for Robin.
He is not above admitting how he visibly deflates when he recognizes the bright red hair entering through the door. Thank God.
"Hey Dorothy!"
"VICKIE IS THERE?! FUCK"
Steve laughs at her outrage. By now he does actually know her name (hard not to, with how often she coincidentally comes to browse the store whenever Robin has a shift), but he has called her "Friend of Dorothy" so much that it has stuck. He is just very bad with names, okay?! Besides, in his humble and correct opinion, Dorothy is simply the superior name. It suits her way better. One day he will be able to convince Vickie of his correct opinion, and when that day comes, he will be ready to immortalize the moment she tells Robin with his camera.
Vicky comes towards the counter and Steve makes the executive decision that torturing Robin is more important than costing Family Video money. Robin realizes what he is about to do, but her cries of protest only encourage him further. Will he pay for that? Probably. Is it still worth it? Abso-fucking-lutely. The click when he hangs up sounds like music to his ears.
He smirks when he sees how her eyes immediately search out something behind him. When she sees his expression, her cheeks flush as bright as her hair. Every time that happens he has to think about Robin's hour-long monologue about how adorable Vickie looks when she blushes. He realizes that for once there isn't anyone here to stop him from saying that. He may not be good at mantaining relationships, but no one can deny that he is an expert at getting a date. And if Robin refuses to make a move? Well, he always has wanted to play matchmaker.
He leans forward and gives her his most charming smile. "So...do you come here often?"
She blinks at him. "Are you...flirting with me?!?!"
"Pretend that I'm Robin, alright?" He brushes one of her red locks behind her ear.
"Jesus Christ"
"Superstar. So, when are you free? Lucky for you, I have Robin's entire schedule memorized."
They stare at each other for a time, at an impasse. And then-
"LISTEN TO THAT HOWLING MOB OF BLOCKHEADS IN THE STREET-!"
(Steve vaguely notes that they scare a few potential customers away with their musical numbers. (Yes. Plural. Obviously.) To say that Vickie isn't a great singer is a bit of an understatement. He thinks it is only fair, considering he already saved Family Video's phone bill by hanging up on Robin. ROBIN. If they wanted him to care they should pay him better.)
It is only once they have gone through the entire "Jesus Christ Superstar" Discography and Vickie is already stepping into her car that he realizes he never actually arranged the Robin and Vickie date. Rockie date? Wait......
He basically throws himself onto the the phone
"ROBIN!"
A very confused Mrs. Buckley calls for her daughter. Steve is practically vibrating on his feet.
"ROBIN! IF YOU COMBINE YOUR AND VICKIES NAME TOGETHER YOU GET ROCKIE!!!!"
"OH MY GOD, LIKE IN THE ICONIC AND VERY QUEER ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW?!"
"I TOLD YOU THAT SHE'S INTO YOU BITCH!"
btw. people. please tell me your Vickie headcanons. <3
Hey look the WIP game actually works lol
-> tramp-stamp
-> gatekeeping 101
-> anti-heteronormativity
-> jancy appreciation hours

I think rockie isnt a "subtext" :) thats why i said i would be fine if they just focused on them because while not making rockie canon would suck, there still arguments can be made for byler not going canon since mlvn is still a canon ship on the show.
Well, for now it is only subtext/implied that Vickie likes Robin but they did the same with Mike... both byler and Rockie are in the same situation, there is a direct parallel in the show, the only difference is that Mike hasn't broken up with El yet but they made a parallel between Vickie and Mike for a reason...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You're free to like next season without byler, I'm not saying that you shouldn't but you asked me if I would and I responded with how I feel 🌈
I think not making byler canon would be so much worse than not making Rockie canon at this point because while I love Robin X Vickie, Robin is not in love with her yet... She likes her only but Will is in love with Mike and that would mean that even with the hypothetical "happy ending" of Will being accepted by his friends and accepting who he is, he still would always have that hurt from Mike not being in love with him and he would bring it with him in life... I would not want that for my favourite character and I would also not be okay with all the queerbaiting the writers did about byler specifically all the past year inside and outside of the show...
Even if mlv is a canon ship the writers have put themselves in a corner with byler and now it is the only really satisfying ending they can give to both Will and Mike from a writing perspective!

Somehow, I found the time to read Arthur's and Iris' chapters. I regret it (but not really, the pain is real, and I love it). The fact that the real plot hasn't even begun yet and I'm already sending you such long asks is very concerning, I legit will not survive LBAF VI/VII mark my words.
Max saying they will never cross the line between hating someone and hurting them when he is trying to destroy Other Max- you hypocrite (I love him so much I want to hug him so tightly). Also, I feel like he won't be the only one to cross the line
Okay what's wrong with David? Does he get sick a lot or was he pretending as an excuse to not go to Lance's recital?
Kincaid being jealous of Harry is adorable and him missing Joan is also adorable, I really like their friendship I hope they work out and become parabatai🥺
David telling Arthur that the world can be cruel to nice people like it was to him had me very concerned, but Arthur saying the world can suck it reminded me of Max, they both have so much of their parents it's so cute
Oh Lance isn't okay with portals he just wants to stay away from David Lance you idiot
overcompensation from a good heart that tried too hard should be Max's anthem honestly
Why do I feel like Kincaid knowing about Gwen and Arthur sharing so much about Lance with him will backfire?
Harry being suspicious of Devlin Corp and him finding out about everything will be super bad for everyone including him and will get Arthur in trouble right? Not to mention Arthur may lose him
Arthur being worried Lance will grow up hurting people breaks my heart whyy😭
Doesn't Other Max know what Max is doing? Selling blood while pretending to be him and all that
Both Lance and Kincaid made a promise to Arthur they won't keep perhaps?
Lanve sharing his music with anyone was extremely important to him vs him sharing it with Theia: I cry
Anjali for the win-what a queen (had to be said)
Why does Lance choose to work out more?
Danii why didn't Max and David ( being the suckers for romance they both are) have plans for Valentine's day??
Lance I love you but shut you sweet bitchy mouth Rafe and Max are a sensitive subject
What had Max and David fought over that took them two days to figure out?🤔
Theory number one: Lance will destroy Idris for either David or Arthur
Theory number two: Arthur has actual manifesting skills which would be super interesting
This must be the most important bullet point: Dying to see how David reacted to seeing Max's nose ring for the first time, I mean he didn't get to go feral over it in IALS so LBAF should give him some sort of compensation
Okay my thoughts are getting out of hand and that's just for Arthur's chapter. Expect an equally huge one for Iris,again the plot hasn't even started, we're in for a wild ride😅
On a different subject, I really hope that if your current job isn't what you really want to do with the rest of your life, you find the courage you give to your characters to pursue your real passion. I know it's not easy but if anyone can do it it's you. For what it's worth I would love to one day hold a copy of your first official book (and I say official because your current works are books too). I'm sure we will all love it as we love every story you share with us. But also so many other people will love it too, when they have the pleasure to know how amazing and crazy talented you are🌷🩷
You know what they say, Vicky. Love finds a way and all that 😎
Max saying he won't hurt anyone he hates and then hurting himself is literally the most Max thing ever. I love my self-loathing king :)
He doesn't get sick a lot. But that episode was real. This was implied, but his episode got triggered because Lance asked him not to come to the concert (I'm about to fight Lance. Just watch me).
Kincaid just looking at everyone who gets to openly love Arthur and making this face 🥺 will be the end of me. AND YES JUSTICE FOR JOAN AND KINCAID BROTP.
Arthur is a lil bit of everything. He is a babydoll ;)
Idiot confirmed.
Truly.
Oh yeah, that's gonna backfire on someone for sure...
I WILL PROTECT HARRY AT ALL COSTS HE IS NAMED AFTER MY BESTIE (doesn't mean I won't hurt him a lil bit hehe)
Arthur worrying about Lance makes me emo because as the younger sibling there is something so vulnerable about worrying for your older siblings.
He knows 😭
Perhaps...
Blackbane will be the end of me. Jot that down.
Always must be said.
Multiple reasons tbh. He wants to be 'ready' to fight Kincaid, self-esteem issues (especially after theia said Kincaid is buff), it's one of the things he actually likes doing together with Max (like how he enjoyed driving around with David rip), it's also something that helps him focus (like in IALS)
Mostly because it's canon-verse and they don't celebrate Valentine's Day usually.
What she said.
It could've been anything tbh. I didn't have anything specific in mind. Maybe even something about Other Max...
Niceeeeeee.
NICEEEEEEEEE.
We might actually see this. I'll leave it at that.
And thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement. It really means a lot - and was important for me to hear. I love what I do (Even though it is killing me hehe). But activism will never be just a job for me and I'll always find new ways to do it no matter what I do in life. But currently I'm stuck in the mindset of "but I want to do this too" so I'm just gonna try it. doesn't mean I'll actually write a book or even if I do, I'll actually publish it. but these wonderful people who've been in my head for such a long time deserve to get the hell out of there so we'll see. I have some hope x
Love you 💙

Omega!Daniel, YoungAlpha!Max, Some Explicit Sexual Content. (A/B/O, Maxiel)
This is (kind of) a continuation of a short drabble I sent to @startinglights a while ago. So, if you're interested in reading a bit more about this dynamic you can go to her page and check it out. (and a lot other great f1 premises and short fics people have sent!)
"Maxy" Daniel groans. 
The paddock is fully packed this weekend, people are everywhere, cameras on every corner with the media in full cover mode, pairs of eyes onto the very last detail. Monaco is always like this; Daniel loves the familiarity of the chaos and mostly the fact that his apartment is just a few blocks away from track. Hotel rooms aren't great places to build comfortable nests, and the motor home's beds are also too small. 
Max's friends are all here, all his karting alpha buddies he flew in his private jet. So they are the reason why Daniel can't take the elevator and go get his now routine morning knot. 
"There's a hundred people outside." Daniel sighs after he feels Max's hands sneak under his pants, wiggly fingers fighting the tight but stretchy material in search of Daniel's source of wetness. "I can even smell them on you." 
Max grunts, frustrated, slipping his tongue inside Daniel's mouth to shut him up and grinding against his thigh, a silent plea. 
He's hard already. Michael had left them alone a minute ago and Max was on top of Daniel the exact second the door closed. 
"Please," Max begs with no real effort of moving off him. Daniel shakes his head and pushes Max's hand out of his asscrack, fondly laughing at the desperate attempt of fingering Max tried to pull. 
He can feel himself getting a bit wet, can't really help it. Max does smell like other people, other alphas, but he's also kind of sweaty and he's got a new haircut last week; bleached his hair a lighter blonde on the top and it looks so hot and dumb. Max did try to hide it under his cap the first two days, but as soon as Daniel had the chance to sneak a peek at it, he snatched the flat-brimmed cap off his head, making Max  blush bright red. 
Daniel just had to drag him to the club's bathrooms and suck his thick cock during Martijn's set. Too horny to wait for a ride home.
Max came so fast it wasn't even risky. Everyone who walked past him definitely could smell where his mouth had been. GP's mortified face was enough to make his sore knees worth it. 
"Vicky is coming in like—five minutes." Daniel tries to explain, after Max makes a hurt noise. 
Max keeps nibbling at Daniel's neck, palming his ass and squeezing harder each time. Daniel whines and pulls Max's hair a bit harder than he normally would, trying to gain some distance between their bodies and not suffocate with their mixed scents. 
"I won't knot." Max says, pushing a blunt finger where Daniel's heat is, right over his clothes. "I'll pull out, before."
"No, you won't." Daniel grins. 
"Please." Max pleads again, plastering his body against Daniel's. "Can I? — Just the tip then… I swear." He whimpers looking at Daniel with sad puppy eyes and wet lips. 
Max reaks of excitement and hornyness.
He just won't use the blockers Red Bull gives them. It drives Daniel crazy, they finish a race and Max struds around smelling like pheromones and pure sex, Alpha scent covering each one of his pores with a smug cocky face on. 
"That's what you said in Spain."
He promised Daniel he would pull out too; they ended up knotted over the massage table with the door unlocked. "Michael hasn't forgiven me yet." 
Max growls bitterly at the memory of Michael walking in on them still attached together while Max jerked Daniel off so he could come on his knot for a second time. Max almost went feral when Michael stepped inside, only the painful whine caused by the tugging on Daniel's rim was enough for Max to contain his alpha and not throw himself towards Michael's shocked frozen body. 
"Are you really that horny?" He asks. Daniel knows the answer before Max nods yes, so he grabs Max's junk and gently pushes the head of his cock against the palm of his free hand, making Max groan in relief. "You can fuck me later. Mike is staying with some friends and I made a nest last night. You'll like it more than this couch." 
They probably won't make it to bed, but Max nods anyway. It's not smart of them to be doing this right now, even less to sneak around during the busiest weekend on the calendar. But Max is hard and asking Daniel to fuck and it's a very hard thing to say no to. He pulls Max's shorts down and takes him with a tight grip, Max jerks right away, his knot halfway inflated just by rutting against Daniel's leg and some lame dirty talk.
Daniel whines at the thought of having it inside him, how good it feels after Max has fucked him and he can just lie there and happily wait until it goes down, how amazing it makes him feel to walk around the paddock sore and satisfied smelling like his Alpha. 
It takes barely four strokes for Max to cum all over Daniel's hand, and Daniel makes sure to squeeze the base of his cock until he stops coming, so Max can at least enjoy it and not be grumpy during the whole media day. 
"The next one is gonna be inside me, okay?" Daniel whispers, as Max's heavy hot breathing hits his ear. Max growls, and looks down to see Daniel's wet hand holding him. He grabs some of the cum over Daniel's knuckles and makes Daniel swallow as much as he can gather, smiling stupidly each time Daniel licks his load off his fingers. 
"You're gross," Daniel says, licking his lips. Max kisses him, laughing like a spoiled child that got his way. Daniel strokes him harshly in response and Max whimpers, over sensitive. "Not funny?"
Max growls again and they both laugh this time. Daniel gently bites him and Max bites back, kissing soflty over the spot on Daniel's bare neck, where a mating scar will be one day.
"Can we try it tonight?" Max asks, hugging Daniel close as he finally lets go of Max's cock, resting inside Max's strong arms, waiting for his half hard dick and Max's knot to go down. 
"What? The mouth thing?" Daniel waivers, not really a hundred percent sure of what Max means. He says wild things when he's come drunk.
"Yes." Max mumbles, suddenly shy. 
It's like the most cliché porny thing Daniel could think of.
Max came back from a dinner with his mates one night and asked Daniel if he could knot his mouth. To be fair, Daniel expected it to be something truly shocking, especially when Max was too nervous to even bring it up at first. Then he remembered how Max is only 19 years old, and how he still wakes up with a boner every morning and can fully knot three times a day with no problem. 
"Sure." Daniel says, kissing Max's hair and cooing a bit. Feeling Max relax and smile against his skin. "You'll be my first though, so you better be nice to me." 
Max growls, deep and low, his dick jerks between them and then he blushes right away, catching himself in the middle of holding Daniel's ass in a moment of post-orgasm possessiveness. Daniel lets out a loud laugh in disbelief, but before he can even think about saying something to tease him, there is some polite but firm knocking on the door. 
"Daniel, Max, we need to go to the press conference. Hurry up, please!"

Alright I was randomly thinking about Stranger Things S4 and the way they handled relationships so here’s my personal ideal way things could’ve gone:
First off- Steddie becomes canon. Fuck Eddie dying, fuck them trying to shove Nancy and Steve back together, Steddie is canon.
Look, I love both Nancy and Steve, but I seriously hate the way they’re trying to pair those two back together because they both grew thanks to their break up. After cutting from that unhealthy teenage romance Nancy became more independent and confident in herself and like Steve says he got a slap of realization and matured, overall becoming a better person. Both of them really gained from that break up and became their own people.
So while yes, theoretically, they could get back together now that they’ve changed, I really don’t like that cause it feels like it takes away the impact of that initial break up. Plus it just feels horribly forced and faked, like wtf was that little speech Steve gave Nancy about kids and stuff, why was that created.
Overall I really like the idea of them being good friends who’ve both changed for the better rather than forced back into what might as well end up being yet another toxic romance. Sometimes people just aren’t meant to be romantic with each other, even if they’re both good people, and that’s okay.
Plus, the way they’re forcing Nancy and Johnathan apart for this is really weak. While I love the idea of Nancy and Robin getting together cause ~gay~ I really do think her and Johnathan have a strong relationship. We’ve seen it built up for three seasons now and if the writers seriously expect me to believe it just takes around a year apart and fucking college to tear them apart they must think I’m stupid.
All those two need is a little communication and it’ll be right as rain. I really love their relationship and the way they’re tarnishing it with these little problems to force Nancy and Steve together really just sucks.
Also I think Vicky is really cute so character-wise I see the best outcome is Nancy and Johnathan stay together and Robin and Vicky start dating.
ANYWAY back to Steve, I know the whole set up of him going on a million different dates with a million different girls was so it could be some lame ass story of “The only girl he wants is Nancy, the only girl he can’t have blah blah hetero nonsense” BUT I like seeing it as a story of suppression.
Personally, I’m a bisexual truther for Steve (for absolutely no biased reason COUGH COUGH) so while yeah Steve likes girls, the reason he could’ve been going into overdrive with it was because it wasn’t working and he was panicking. What’s he supposed to do if he can’t get with a girl? It’s not like he could date anyone else, of COURSE not.
Then story stuff starts happening and he can’t really focus on his love life (which is a relief to him) until one man named Eddie Munson enters the scene. 
Do I really have to explain their chemistry? Like, come on, they’re perfect for each other. Eddie is so vastly different from Steve with his whole “freak metal DnD” lifestyle and it confuses Steve. He doesn’t know how to interact with him, something we see in the show, but further more he doesn’t know how to identify how Eddie makes him feel. He’s scared by whatever it is and fails to not focus on it.
Of course, Robin, lesbian bestie, teases him to no end about it without outright saying what it is because Steve needs to discover it on his own. And of course on Eddie’s end the man is a raging homosexual but also knows how stupid Steve is, so he has his fun flirting knowing Steve probably (hopefully) won’t catch on.
Then? Eddie doesn’t die cause FUCK YOU /nm and goes onto the fifth season where both of them are forced to work together more, Steve finally figures his shit out, and they get together. Steddie wins, you’re welcome.
So, as a recap for the older kids, we have Steve with Eddie, Nancy with Johnathan, and Robin with Vicky.
Now onto the Byler dilemma cause dear god.
First of all, the queerbaiting was beyond painful with those two like just wow. I wasn’t expecting any Byler content as much as I would’ve liked it, but I at the least thought we’d get Will coming out to either Mike or Johnathan. So I’m personally a little pissed off about that.
Anyway, Byler’s tricky for me because I don’t necessarily mind Mike and El being together. They’ve had their bumps (mostly Mike being stupid) but they’re not awful in any way. Yet I still want Mike and Will to get together because Will deserves that.
So, in my head, I like the idea that when Mike and El have that fight before El is arrested, they actually break up with each other. Both of them think they’re failing the other member and have this mindset of “you’re better off without me” so they both break up, thinking they shouldn’t be together until they’re good enough for the other person. A very upset mutual break up.
Then El goes to work on Project NINA where she thinks this’ll help her figure out if she’s the monster/stop being the monster so that she can be better for Mike. But, while she’s there, along learning several other things, she comes to the conclusion maybe it’s better if they don’t get back together. Sort of like when Max and her went to the mall to hang out. 
That independent “I don’t need a man” mindset but rather than being aggressive at Mike with it she recognizes they might just be better off not worrying about romance right now. Especially with everything going on.
Meanwhile, on Mike’s end, he has that conversation with Will on how he thinks he’s failing El and stuff. The place gets ambushed, they rush off to find Suzie etc etc, but Mike has a couple discoveries along the way. Namely, how incredible Will is.
At first his main motivation is making things up for El, being the better boyfriend she deserves. But while they’re busy doing things he starts noticing Will and everything he does, everything he’s ever done for Mike. (Aka Will doesn’t get shoved to the back like he did this season and starts doing more stuff)
Mike gets his little gay awakening, the two of them talk more and more (that whole “your the heart” speech does not happen because honestly wtf was that) and when El and Mike finally reunite it’s a bit awkward because they hug, pause, then pull away like “I missed you so much!...buddy.”
Mike can still do the whole speech to El so that she stops Vecna, but instead of it being centered around his love for her, it should be more so all of their love for her. Like the others should chime in too and she gets all these memories about all of them and how hugely they’ve affected her life for the better.
Plot continues like normal (BUT EDDIE DOESN’T DIE he will not die) and we cut to the two days later. That’s when I want Mike and Will to have their little confession moment. They don’t have to kiss, though it’s welcome, just a little moment where Mike is confused but knows he cares a lot about Will, always has, Will admits his feelings (that’s where he can show the painting and it could be something centered just around Mike like we all thought it’d be) and yay, Byler canon!
Luke and Max are perfect, they don’t need changing. That was the one relationship the writers nailed on the head this season (that and Joyce and Hopper). I care for them so dearly.
So, we get Steve and Eddie, Nancy and Johnathan, Robin and Vicky, Will and Mike, Luke and Max, and El enjoying the single life proudly. I think character-wise for me personally this would’ve been the best way to go about their relationships but oh well, can’t change canon.
This is just how it is in my heart, hope you enjoyed my rant. 👍

could you maybe write eddie being allergic to steve’s collogne? and steve trying to help, but only making it worse?
holy shit you had me at allergic. let's fucking do this. 1.8K words.
This was not supposed to be an issue.
Steve wears cologne on a pretty regular basis, he'll admit that. He started wearing it almost daily in high school, right when he started to actually date girls, and he supposes it just became a habit at some point during those four years. Now, it's rare that he gets ready for the day, especially if he's working, without putting some on. Same brand, same place, every single time. The tried and true method.
Except, apparently, for today.
See, whenever he gets caught up in all of this Upside Down supernatural bullshit, his morning routine sort of goes out the window. Steve's a little busy saving the world, alright? Sue him if he wanted to at least attempt to return to normalcy, even if Vecna still is missing and Hawkins has genuine ravines through Main Street.
He's in the school gym with Nancy, Robin, Jonathan, and the kids, their whole group helping out as best they can. After all, it is kind of their fault that this happened in the first place. Not that they meant for it to, obviously, but the guilt is still there. Steve's pretty sure Robin's making sandwiches with Vickie again, while Jonathan and Nancy are sorting through clothes. He's sorting through medical supplies, making piles of bandages and gauze and organizing them into homemade first-aid kits when Eddie fucking Munson shows up, pale and with shaky hands but very much alive.
"Holy shit," Steve breathes, not even hesitating to move towards him and wrap the other man in a hug. The shakiness spreads throughout the rest of his body, and he can feel the way Eddie immediately sags into him like he's struggling to hold up his own weight. "You're okay."
A wet laugh makes its way out of Eddie's throat, breath cold against Steve's ear. "I don't know about okay, but still kicking?"
Steve holds him tighter, the two of them breathing in tandem for a couple seconds before Eddie pulls away, hand remaining on Steve's shoulder for support as he glances at the floor. "Is Max...?"
"She's still in the hospital," Steve replies, taking note of the flinch that elicits but not mentioning it just yet. He's sure that's something entirely else to unpack that Eddie doesn't need or want to go into right now. "She'll be okay, though. Max is tough."
"Yeah," Eddie agrees, nodding to himself before looking back at Steve. "I was, uh, pointed towards you by the woman at the front. She told me to help out."
"Alright, then." He guides the other man behind the table with him, indicating all the little piles of supplies. "It's pretty simple, I think. We're basically just sorting all the donations into piles and setting up first-aid kits so that we can hand them out to the volunteers digging through the wreckage."
"Sounds good," Eddie says, sniffling lightly. "Do you want to organize or arrange?"
He shifts to the right, moving around Eddie to where there's a handful of half-assembled first-aid kits. "I'll arrange. Are you okay with organizing?"
Eddie nods, his curly hair moving limply as he does. Besides the obviously stress-induced gauntness and drawn appearance to his features, he looks dull, as if the life's been sucked out of him. Steve remembers what each of them were like after their first time in the Upside Down, ranging from weirdly excited (most of the kids) to absolutely traumatized (Will) to understandably paranoid (Jonathan, Nancy, and the majority of them as then-teenagers). Not once did any of them look like Eddie does now, though, and he doesn't know if it's because none of them have been injured seriously enough to wind up in the hospital or because this is just how Eddie reacts to, frankly, world-shattering realizations. "Hey."
"Hey," he mumbles, handing over a small bundle of gauze and avoiding eye contact.
"Are you okay?" Steve waits as Eddie fiddles with a box of Band-Aids, opening and closing it a few times before dumping them out on the table and sorting through them by size. "Eddie."
He shrugs, separating two that are stuck together. "Get back to me in a couple of days, Harrington. Right now, I'm not sure."
And yeah, that's fair. Steve nods his understanding, packing the gauze into the designated plastic container with its little dividers. "Alright. Just..." He bites his lip, shuffling a little closer to Eddie. "We're here if you need anything, okay?"
The other man nods again, a muscle near his jaw twitching slightly like he has something else he wants to say. Instead, though, he twists to the side, face pressed into his shoulder, and sneezes. "ih'ktsHh! gkKt! hdt'SH'uh! Oh, fuck."
"Bless you," Steve says, frowning. Those had to hurt; the injuries on Eddie's stomach from the demobats aren't yet healed. "And again, bless you."
"Thanks," Eddie says, knuckling harshly at his nose. Six sneezes isn't exactly unusual from him, after all, but in succession like that? There's got to be a cause for them, and the most likely answer is that something is triggering his allergies. "Sorry."
"Don't apologize." He glances around for tissues, hoping that by any chance there's a box of them nearby. While he does, Eddie crumples with another triple, bending forward slightly with the stronger set. "Bless you, Jesus Christ. Hold on, I'm going to find some tissues."
Eddie nods acknowledgement, breath still hitching. "You're kidding, right?" Steve asks, brows knitting together in concern.
"I wi-hih-sh," he breathes, bringing his hand up to press the next few into the back of his wrist. "hhg'sHxt! t'sHhh! hh'kKt-xXT-sH'uh!" There's not even a breath between the last three, and Eddie's practically digging his knuckles into the side of his nose by the time they're through with to stave off what has to be the beginnings of another fit.
"You're going to pop a stitch," Steve frets, digging through the paper bags of donations. "The hell is this even from?"
He doesn't look back at the other man, but he assumes Eddie shrugs from the lack of a verbal reply. "I mean, seriously. It wasn't even this constant in the boathouse."
"Yeah, but that was fucking torturous," Eddie tells him, shaking his head at the memory. "This, at least, is quick."
"Your stitches, Munson. From the goddamn bat bites from another dimension. Why do I have to remind you of this?"
He huffs. "Believe me, you do not. This is like fihhre through my entire abdome— h'kKxt! Oh, shihd'TSHh'uh! h'isHh!" He gasps, his left hand finally curling around his side, and crouches on the ground when the rest of them hit, stifling fiercely to minimize the movement of his torso. "ih'gXt! gTt! hk'sH! Jesus H. Christ..."
"Bless you," Steve says, emphasizing the entire phrase this time and glancing at Eddie to make sure he's not dead or popped a stich, relieved when he finds that there's no blood staining the Hellfire shirt Eddie's wearing. "Seriously, what're you allergic to?"
"I have no fucking clue." He sniffles, looking around to try and find whatever's setting him off. "Itch is gone, though. At least, for now. Any luck on the tissues?"
He rustles through another bag, still coming up empty. "Not yet."
Eddie sighs, the congestion clear in his breathing. "You think they'll mind if I swipe a gauze pad?" he asks, his voice coming from a bit higher up, like he's already staring at them.
Steve hums in consideration, a bit occupied at the moment. "Probably not? I mean, you did just get out of the hospital. I think you can be a bit entitled right now."
"Good, because I'm already using it," Eddie says, voice slightly muffled as he speaks. Steve can hear him softly blowing his nose under the sound of him going through the paper bags. It seems like most people have just collected what's around their houses, consisting mostly of Band-Aids and clean towels that can also be used as bandages. Gauze pads, painkillers, where are the tissues?
Next bag, and finally, the goods. "Got them," Steve announces, holding the box up as proof.
"Thank fuck," Eddie says, moving to sit back down with Steve and eagerly accepting the box. "Four-by-four inches is not enough."
The next couple of minutes pass without incident, Eddie holding a bundle of tissues to his face and blowing his nose while Steve sits next to him. He'd already been working for about two hours before Eddie shows up and packed over thirty first-aid kits. It should be fine if he takes five minutes to sit with his friend. "You alright?"
"I better be. I cannot afford another hospital bill," Eddie says. Steve grins, chuckling a bit to himself.
"Sterilized environment sounds pretty nice right about now, doesn't it?" he asks, tone still conveying sympathy has he nudges Eddie lightly in the arm.
He laughs. "Oh, yeah. I miss it already." He leans in, putting his weight against Steve, and rests his head on his shoulder. "Missed you, too," he mumbles, tone slipping into something more vulnerable.
Steve wraps an arm around his shoulders, tugging him in a bit closer. "We thought you were dead, man," he whispers. "There was so much fucking blood when we showed up."
Eddie only nods, breathing shakily as he buries his face in Steve's neck, searching for comfort before suddenly jerking back and staring Steve dead in the eyes. "What?"
"Are you wearing cologne?"
"Yeah, why?" Steve asks, watching as Eddie pulls back even further, arm coming up to cover his face and—
"h'iTsh! kTSch! t'sHhiew!"
"Bless you," Steve says, wincing and shifting backwards, hoping to avoid being the cause of any other fits. "I'm really sorry, Eddie."
He waves it off. "What was it you said earlier? Don't apologize?"
"That's different—"
"Shh. Shut up. It's fine, Steve, you didn't know," Eddie tells him, plucking another few tissues out of the box. "Just take me home and you're forgiven."
"You're literally going to get worse just from being in the car with me," Steve points out, but he's already standing up. "Uh, where are you living now?"
Eddie shrugs. "Not sure, to be honest. Uncle Wayne kind of just took me here after I was discharged and told me to check in with you guys. He said I should stay over at one of your houses and that he'd track me down in the morning."
"O...kay, if he says so," Steve says, eyebrow raised. "You can probably stay with me for the night, if you want to, or the Wheelers. Let's just tell the woman at the front that we're leaving and track down the others. I'm sure they're all eager to see you, especially Dustin."
"Dustin motherfucking Henderson." Eddie grins. "That kid is simultaneously the life and death of me."
Steve laughs, pulling Eddie to a standing position. "Welcome back."

Already seen too many stupid hot takes on Stranger Things Volume 2, specially around Will's sexuality, so I'm gonna throw my two cents in because it's pissing me off.
Now, I want to start with I ship both Mike/Will and El/Mike, so this isn't coming from a bias.
There is absolutely NO queerbaiting in ST. Will is gay. Will is in love with Mike. That's a fact. Mike is not gay. Mike is in love with El. That's also a fact.
Do I think there's some hints Mike has a little a little bit of feelings for Will under the surface? Yes. And do I think there's perhaps a foreshadowing of them after the end of Volume 2, yes. Does that mean if they don't end up together there's queerbait, NO.
It's not queerbait to have Will be in love with his not gay best friend (and note how I say "not gay" because we have no idea what Mike's sexuality is at this point in time) in fact, it's an incredibly common occurrence for queer kids. Like, how many gay kids haven't had a crush on their not queer best friends?
It's also not queerbait for Will to have never said his sexuality out loud. He's a teenage boy in the 80s, you really think he's going to be out there shouting it from the rooftops? He's terrified. His entire childhood he was called homophobic slurs, you really think he's going to want to actually come out? It doesn't need to be said for it to be real. Robin has never said she's a lesbian out loud. She's just shown to be crushing on a girl, the exact same way Will is with Mike. Doesn't make Robin being a lesbian any less real.
And for people who are like "it's gross to have a queer character used to further a straight relationship" are you even listening to yourself??? Just because Will is gay, doesn't mean he's lost his ability to be a good friend to Mike. He knows he doesn't have a chance with Mike, Mike loves El. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Will helping Mike as his friend. No one would bat an eye if it was a girl who was in love with Mike helping out. Will and Mike's friendship doesn't have to end just because Will is in love with him.
And for the record, you can't cry queerbait on a show that hasn't even ended, especially when so far there has been no queerbait to be seen. Robin is gay. Will is gay. Vickie is clearly feeling something for Robin. These are all facts.
If Will was to turn around and it be said he's actually been in love with El this whole time, then yeah, queerbait. But he's not. He's a gay boy in love with his best friend.
And for the people who claim not having Robin and Vickie end up together (yet, people, the show isn't finished) is queerbait as if a gay character is only gay if they're in a relationship, you suck. Robin is gay. She doesn't need to have a girlfriend for that to be real. It's NOT queerbait for her to be single. I'm a single bisexual, I'm not any less bi because I'm not in a relationship? What sort of dumb argument is that?
Tldr: there is no queerbait in ST. Mike is in love with El and that's not queerbait. Will is allowed to give up his love for Mike's relationship because he knows he doesn't stand a chance and that's not queerbait. Will and Robin are allowed to be single and that's also not queerbait.
And despite this, do I think there's a chance for Mike/Will? Honestly, yes. But if they don't end up together? Still not queerbait, because Mike does love El, this is a fact.
I would love Mike/Will to be endgame, just as much as I would love Mike/El to really be end game. Either way though? Not queerbait.

Well that was quite the cliffhanger to end on!
Season 1 of El Internado is done! :D
It’s a fun show with some great characters and intriguing mystery even if it kinda throws everything and the kitchen sink at you at once and apparently takes place over a week? I’m choosing to ignore that and pretend it’s a month.
The show effectively follows three groups: the teachers, the teens, and the 5 year olds, the latter of whom are objectively the best characters and deserve the world. I love Paula & Evelyn and their friendship and innocent 5 year old view of the world, and how caring the adults around them are. Amelia really does seem like a great teacher, and just the way Jacinta and others all melt when it comes to the kids and cheering them up and going along with their games. They are so good even if Paula’s friendship with Gnome gives me many heart attacks because we know nothing about him.
But if Jacinta knows about him and isn’t hostile to him, I can believe he’s a good guy! He also saved Paula from the “Taxi Driver” and that’s the most important thing. That “Taxi” scene still haunts me.
Speaking of Jacinta, the trio of Jacinta, Maria, and Fermin is my favorite trio! I love all of their interactions and and relationships, and how much Jacinta & Fermin try to help Maria. Maria deserves the world.
Hector’s a pretty cool dude too, even if he really needs to get his personal life sorted out. Elsa’s a cheater so I’m definitely not rooting for this relationship but I do still feel a little bad for her and at the very least I don’t think she’s evil evil. Just an awful person but one who takes her job seriously. Given what I’ve heard about this show, I can’t discount that.
Pedro sucks though. No sympathy for him at all. Please run Amelia.
And Camilo................................................ I trust him as far as I can throw him right now. The teenagers should too if someone can find the brain cell among them.
And speaking of the teens... they are probably the weakest part of the show tbh. Not in terms of plot - the mystery is great and intriguing and I do like how active they are in finding answers rather than waiting for the plot to come to them. But as characters?
Marcos & Ivan are really the only ones with any depth and development, and a lot of that comes out with their interactions with more interesting characters outside of the friend group. Ivan’s two friends are just kinda there, and while it’s great the Carol and Vicky and so active in finding their missing teacher and largely moving things forward.... who are they and why should we care again?
Vicky seemed to be set up as the student with the closest relationship to Alfonso so it was weird that Carol ended up as the one most determined to solve the mystery. And while her determination is admirable... Carol herself kinda sucks.
We barely know anything about her. Why is she so obsessed with solving this mystery? What was her relationship with Alfonso? Why are her friends following her... why are they all even friends? This goes for the group in general. We get a lot of great scenes of Paula & Evelyn, and the adults and their social lives but we barely get anything for the teens. They’re a friend group because the show says they are and we never really get any fun, sweet moments between them.
I feel like the show would have been stronger if all the kids got sucked into the mystery for their own reasons like Marcos and grew closer together rather than starting off as an alleged friend group.
Also Carol’s actress is..... not good as whispering. Everyone is bad at this but I feel it’s especially bad with her. The sheer number of times a scene really looks like it should have the characters whispering between each other but instead has them talking at normal volume (or loud in Carol’s case) is laughable. How have the adults not caught on to what they’re doing yet? They talk about it out in the open! xD
Also...how is this school’s security so bad (beyond Hector refusing to hire a private firm) Kids are getting lost in the woods every night apparently - the woods that are repeatedly said to be dangerous and off-limits, yet the 5 year olds have regular field trips there, doors are never locked and the one time they are it’s used for attempted murder. And somehow Gnome is able to sneak into the school pretty regularly to see Paula and never gets caught.
Hector.... please get your school and your life in order. You may choose the order.

((Alrighty! It's Sunday so time to read more Tim Drake with the... 3 different guides I'm using to make sure I do it in the right order... why are comics like this?
Last week I did Lonely Place of Dying (Which covered Batman #440-442 as well as New Titans #60 and #61) And Robin Volume 1: Reborn (which covered Batman #455-457, Detective Comics #618-621 and Robin #1-5)
So I'm starting with Robin Volume 2: Triumphant
...after I've had some lunch
Hoookay DC #465...
Awwww patrolling with Batman and noting that Bruce is doing okay~
Oooooo unfortunate choice of words... I'm sure it's fine, Tim
Oof, slapped by a lady he prevented from going through something awful. Not your fault, bud
Alfred and some rando watching soap operas together while working in the Cave? Fuck yeah!
Ah yes, Bruce Wayne helping where he can as the man himself rather than a vigilante
...is he *actually* dating Vicky Vale or is it s cover?
Hah! Making a stab at the lady's age for kissing Bruce on the cheek! Very cleverly and subtly done, not sure I like the jealousy angle. Also how does Bruce put up with being flirted with and having his boundaries crossed all the time?
Oooooooohhhhhh this Ginny Gray person can't distinguish fiction from reality
Nicely played, Bruce!
Awww Jim's getting married!
Oh shit! Tim's Dad is awake!
-----------
And now #467
Ooooo I see Lynx is back
And King Snake apparently. Looking to set up shop in Gotham and be a nuisance
Sorry Jim, you're forever gonna get ghosted by Batman and Robin
"We're not the only ones who trade in fear. Crimelords run empires on it" Stares loudly in Jason's direction
OH. Oh I don't like that! Tim's still settling and the informant got dressed in a Robin costume and beat to shit?!
Yeah that's one hell of a threat
------------
Let's go 468
Yup, Ghost Dragons going nuts
And that is *not* what happened Edmund!
...Bruce... Bruce I'm begging you. Just tell him you're worried for Tim's safety after a very clear threat was made and it's low key triggering you a little
You know what? I'll take that. Admitting that Robin has been singled out as a target and wanting him to be kept out of it
And of course, Tim being the clever little shit that he is, using Bruce's own words and lessons to make him finish the night and get some rest. Nicely done
Aaaaaand another threat. More subtle this time. Cause that doesn't look like a robin, I think it's some other bird?
-------------
Aaaaannnnnd 469
Oh Lynx is 100% manipulating Edmund
Bruce, you will keep a civil tongue in your head when speaking to Alfred, I don't care how tired and worried you are
Oh good, Bruce at least knows he's running into a trap
Oooohhhhh that's gonna hit hard
--------
Robin 2
...oh joy, it's clown themed -.- fucking clown
Nope. Absolutely do not allow the fucking clown to see his mother. Keep them faaaarrrrr apart from each other, nothing good can come from this
Like listen. I'll fight for the rights of the disabled both physically and mentally until I'm blue in the face. But given everything he's done so far, going from a relatively harmless nuisance to a literal murderer and continuing to put thousands of people in danger every time he gets out. He shouldn't get anything other than his meds.
FUCKING TOLD YOU, YOU CAN'T TRUST EITHER OF THEM
Oh God, and it's Tim's first solo patrol?!?!
Good thing Jason hasn't come back to life yet!
...this is the first time Freeze shows up? Huh... that actually goes with one of the Belfry chats
Warlocks and Warriors? Awwww Tim's a dnd nerd!
Hell yes, stand up for your friends! Sucks you've got no time rn tho
...2 years from getting his driver's liscence sooooo... he's 14 currently?
Yes Tim, the guy who killed your predecessor really is that crazy!
--------
Hm, hologram Batman. Smart idea on short notice
Oh damn, Ives is a great friend keeping Tim out of trouble like that
Uhh Ma'am? You're a local right? Surely you know not to trust anything with clown iconography?
...I'm gonna say that that phonecall wasn't Bruce and was actually Joker managing to get through on the line thanks to the computer scientist he kidnapped and drugged
Tim, honey, just be glad you're not dead because Joker knows you're on your own now
----------
And this is why you don't give the old clown anything except his fucking meds
Because he may not have a PHD like several other rogues but he's pretty decent at chemistry and he's a quick study. Look at what he's managed to do with just a few books from the asylum library!
Snrrrrkkk Alfred just admit you've come to like the excitement of American Football~ You're still a proper British gent, I promise~
...a billion dollars when the city is boarderline bankrupt? Delivered by Batman? ...I fucking hate the clown
And Tim is venting it out via his dnd game with his buddies, bless him. I've done that too, buddy
Oooooo good catch! The power grid!
...well that's not creepy at all! I might have to make an ammendment to the thread I started with my fiance
Welp... this isn't looking good
--------
Okay, setting the trap and trying to find a solution to all this
Remote controlling the truck with a Batman suit inside? Smart! Here's hoping the clown isn't expecting conversation
...is that where the Batman version of fucking Jingle Bells came from?!?!
HAH! Every other inmate making fun of the clown! As he fucking deserves!
---------
I'm gonna start another post from here I think, this one's getting long enough even under the read more

Ah, so what that actually is is proof that it’s not a recent connection, is indeed most likely as previously described — “if it was something Misha and Vicki explored together (since one of the components Kamala focuses on is polyamory, which is what M&V practiced)” — especially considering the section of the appendices Kamala’s name was included in. Perhaps also something not particularly relevant to current day Misha.
The confirmation bias mentioned is you, yet again, seemingly automatically interpreting information as being a negative against Vicki and/or Misha without knowing the full details, which are impossible to know because you don’t know them personally.
Just because you make certain connections between people or gathered “evidence” doesn’t necessarily mean that’s how the puzzle actually fits together. Someone else could see the exact same information, approach it differently (perhaps with a more open mind) and reach another conclusion. Especially if that someone didn’t already have a certain narrative in mind that they wish to “prove” when it comes to the people involved.
You can’t say I’m jumping to conclusions and making negative assumptions if you’re so afraid of reading the book yourself. You’re definitely scared of seeing something you won’t like.
It would be an assumption if misha didn’t follow her on his personal Facebook, which only follows people that he knows. That account is way younger than the book. It would be an assumption if Vicki didn’t write a ton of spiritual bullshit interwoven with her opinions. She uses law of attraction for fuck’s sake. And misha doesn’t follow all the other sources Vicki gives at the end just read the book. And remember that Vicki wrote all of that with misha as an active participant, and THEN perused karla, and then has had repeated ‘instances’ with fans. Stop sucking his dick lmao

All I could think about was Marco or Ed bursting into MC's room panicking so I hope you like this, I enjoy reading each chapter you put out (even if you don't feel that it is as good as others, we're living in a p*nd*mic, you're trying your best and we're here to support you 💜, you're doing amazing).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The door to your room flies open as Ed and Marco both practically trip over themselves to get inside.
"MC can we eat chocolate, yes or no?" Marco stares at you, curiosity piqued.
"Honestly I'm not sure, we've got human body systems, just with some *slight* modifications. If humans can eat it why can't we?"
"See that's what I was saying!" Ed agrees.
"But the wolf within us is still a powerful thing so we can't just discount that!" Marco argues.
"How about to test these hypotheses we make the trek to the gas station?"
"Okay MC, but I'm betting we can't eat it." Marco interjects.
"I bet you a dollar we can." Ed holds out a crumpled dollar.
"You're on."
During the drive (convincing Vicky to let you go fill up her tank was a hard bargain, but free gas), the pros and cons of eating chocolate were being discussed.
"Well, we aren't dogs, but distantly related somehow right?" Marco chirps from the back seat.
"I'm not sure if that's how genetics work Marco."
"Do you have a better idea Ed? Besides just trying it to see what happens?"
You decide now is the best time to add your two cents from the drivers seat, "whatever happens, we heal quickly, so why the hell not find out? What's the worst that could happen? Oh no, diarrhea for a few hours? Sucks we've only got one bathroom but it's for science. Finding out our allergies is an important venture."
The *jingle* of the doorway snaps you all out of your discussion, you hadn't even realized the car was parked and you already walked inside. It's decided that each of you would buy a bar and eat it.
"For the full effect." Marco grins, yet you still see a hint of uncertainty flash behind his eyes.
Each of you pay, and collect your remaining change, you mumble for "20 on pump 7" to pay for Vicky's inconvenience.
When you make it back, in turn we all eat a full bar, anticipating the reactions. Ed's stomach rumbles first.
"Fuck," he mutters, "we should've asked Minjo first before we decided on this."
Yours rumbles second "she's not a vet, would she have been able to give us any insight?"
Marco covers his mouth, looking rather pale "maybe one of the pups got into them on accident, who's to say? It's too late now for us. May the fastest one to the bathroom win."
