Ninjago Avatar the Last Airbender AU

There has been a lack of these in the Ninjago fandom and it personally offends me.

Background to get out of the way: these are characters existing in the Avatar universe. The gaang have their adventure which affects the ninja leading them to meeting each other.

Cole

Cole lives in the Fire Nation as a noble.

Jk, he lives in the Earth Kingdom. He lives in Gaoling and attends Master Yu's Earthbending Academy. He has a lot of pressure to succeed and do well because his nonbending father Lou shows him off. Lou does a lot of community theatre, but doesn't have much time for Cole. Cole and his father were heartbroken after his mother's death. She died helping a small village fight the Fire Nation. They're distant and barely know each other.

He wishes to have more value and help people with his Earthbending just like his mother. He never expresses this to Lou, knowing his father wouldn't let him. He seeks out ways to help people and runs into a man who goes by Wu. He's young, in his early 30s. He offers Cole to join the White Lotus. (but cole doesn't know it's the white lotus)

Cole talks with his father, trying to bond with him. They break out into an argument, causing Cole to run away with Wu. They're searching for more White Lotus members, now that news of the Avatar returning has given them hope.

Jay

He lives with his parents in a more industrial part of the Fire Nation. His parents work in a factory, so Jay is often left alone at home playing by himself. He likes to tinker with gadgets and taught himself how to bend lightning. (Jay has some weird thing where he can't do normal fire, but can do lightning. It's because he's always wanted to power things, so his brain is just wired that way. In his teen years he tries to undo it, but can't) He's insecure as he can't bend fire like a normal person is viewed as a freak. He's talkative and a little cuckoo as he talks to doodles he made and pretends they're friends.

Overall, he has a nice life with his parents, completely clueless of being adopted.

It all changes when he meets this weird dude from the colonies and this other buff dude from the colonies. One of the dudes, the one with the mustache is really obsessed with paisho. They keep helping him out and being friends. He learns their names are Kenji and the buff one is Gen.

One night there's this serious mood in the air. Jay decides to play paisho and he learns the pairs real names. He soon learns about the Order of the White Lotus. Wu does some really dubious thing, offering Jay a chance to learn engineering at a higher level. He doesn't tell Jay the cause and purpose of the White Lotus yet.

When Ed and Edna hear about the offer they're ecstatic. They hope Jay will get rich and help them. They let Wu steal Jay away.

Zane

Zane lives in the North Pole. He is chill. His father died recently, so he's depressed, but he's doing alright. He desires to help people beyond the North Pole. He's skilled in bending water, as he trained under Pakku for years. Pakku can tell Zane has a desire to help people. Zane doesn't vibe with other people from his own Nation and is very awkward around them. Pakku decides to send Zane to Wu, knowing he'll be better there.

Zane is sad about leaving his home. He finds Cole and Jay very nice, but weird. He has no idea why they can't talk about missions in front of Jay. Zane finds the Earth Kingdom odd, and hopes Wu comes back from his trip to the Fire Nation.

Kai & Nya

Kai is a blacksmith who lives in the countryside of the Fire Nation with his sister. They don't know why their mother is and Ray is serving in the war. Kai is a firebender, while Nya is a waterbender. They live in the Fire Nation as their appearance is more Fire Nation than Water Tribe. Kai is no master of firebending, only knowing tricks to help him with blacksmithing. Nya, is worse off, as she can barely move water without getting angry and giving up.

Kai is angry and wants the war to end, so his father may come home. He feels comfortable being a recluse in the forge, whereas Nya goes to school. They both work hard at hiding their Water Tribe heritage. It's Kai who goes greater lengths than Nya.

Kai is focused on making money so they both can survive. He wants to wait for his father to come back. He spends most of his time in the forge. Nya likes to read about inventions and breakthroughs, but can't work on her craft as she lives in the countryside.

They get visited by a strange man and are annoyed with him for wasting their time. I supposed the they in this case is just Kai. Kai is annoyed at this strange man from the colonies browsing his workshop.

When Nya comes back from school and the man sees her he's intrigued. (As in Wu has a really good hunch)

One night Nya wakes up detecting an intruder. Kai rushes in to fight against the intruder. The intruder is very good, he extinguishes Kai's bending quickly and much better at wielding a weapon than Kai. Nya panics and does a surprise attack with her water on the intruder. Kai uses the distraction and tries to knock him out. The intruder reveals themselves as the man from earlier. He begs them to join the Order of the White Lotus. Wu recognizes they have great potential to be powerful benders. He tells them their mission and what they do. Nya joins because she's sick of hiding her waterbending and wishes to improve. (She ends up getting tutored by Zane) Kai joins out of fear that Wu would spread their true heritage. He doesn't want to get killed. They both go on a boat to the colonies, awaiting to meet with the group.

The meet up

The five all become a group, very unsure of what Wu is planning. Nya is the happiest, as she is being trained by Zane and improving at a very fast speed. Cole is enjoying himself much more than his time at home, but he and Zane agree that they haven't done anything substantial. Kai is the most suspicious of Wu. Wondering why he'd get a group of five together. Why would he do this? What does he want? Kai is snooping when he's not getting training with Wu. Wu is a firebender so he trains under him directly. Jay spends most of his time playing around. (Wu can't lightning bend. Wu knows most in the Fire Nation Royal Family can. He also knows only one other person outside of this, but it's due to other factors)

Cole and Zane join Kai on inspecting their living quarters. They find a bunch of scrolls on the Spirit World. At dinner they bring this to Wu's attention. Jay figures out he's being lied to. (And doesn't care) Nya is pissed. Wu comes clean, saying the Spirit thing is a side project. He wants them alive to fight on the side of the Avatar. He says the Avatar will have an army, but they need ninja. He wants to train them to be ninjas.

I'll make one about Lloyd and his family later. I need sleep.

Any questions, please reblog with.

Ok. A hypothetical scenario if you'll indulge me. You are a casting director on the movie. You are familiar with the material and you are asked to present some actors to the crew- *besides JK Simmons who everybody thinks should play Joey I guess?* who do you suggest and for what role?

I don't know any actors other than The Guy With The Cool Lips Who Played Scarecrow That One Time, so setting me up as casting director would be a questionable decision! I feel like the very tiny amount we know about this movie also makes this difficult; like, am I casting Sammy in 1932, Sammy in 1946, Ink Sammy, all three?

So, rather than picking specific famous people, some broader thoughts on what elements to prioritise?? as hypothetical casting director. For sake of this exercise we're going to take this all very seriously and pretend that the writing for this movie is already great lmao.

Joey: Ironically for the first BatIM character to get a canon human appearance, I think Joey's acting chops are more important than his looks; as long as makeup can do a decent moustache and the voice is good, the energy is what will really sell him. Joey Drew is both VERY important to get right and also the most complex character in the Bendy Franchise, but he's also really really easy to turn into a stereotype, and I feel like this implication of "obviously he should be played by the guy who played J Jonah Jameson" kinda speaks to how easy it is to see just one side of him. Joey is simultaneously ruthless but also disarmingly charming, likeable but also punchable, confident but also pathetically insecure, genuine but also manipulative -- it seems like a tricky energy to nail. If he doesn't have a sharpness to him, that Curiosity Where Empathy Should Be element, you've erased a really important part of the man behind so many nightmares; if he's a cartoon evil capitalist, then everyone who believes in his dreams looks stupid for falling for something so obvious. Whoever plays him has to be able to get in his head AND ALSO convey that nuance. But if you have the luxury of nitpicking appearance after that, I think it's worth noting that Joey doesn't look the way he's trying to look. I keep saying I'm obsessed with his overbite in BatDR, but like:

See? Henry's the one with that aggressive strong jaw facial structure. Compared to him, even this less-aged Joey has facial structure more like mine, with a weaker chin that gives the impression of an overbite and a shorter face (which, to be clear, are attractive traits, but they are definitely not the Stereotypical Energy for this character archetype) -- he just knows how to carry himself to give off that j jonah jameson energy. I think attention to that kind of detail would also help him be his own fascinating character instead of just shoving him into an existing archetype.

Henry: If it's Ink Henry, his vibes are the most important. This character is famously non-emotive, often to an inappropriate extent, and frankly I think whoever plays him should keep that as part of his character. Henry strikes me as someone who wants to be kind but he's so, so tired, and just looking at this guy needs to sell that because Henry's actual behaviour and dialogue won't.

If it's Actually Worked In The Studio Henry, then I think his voice and appearance need to be SPOT. ON. so that they can play him a little differently and it still works rather than just not feeling like Henry. If he sounds like a perfect Henry but he has more energy, he's still quiet but he's more confident, he's not the follower Joey tried to sell him as... that would be such a neat thing to leave as an implied reveal for fans -- that the Henry we know is either a dishonest representation, or changed by his experiences, and is actually a bit different from the man Joey worked with.

Susie: they won't do this because they're cowards, but I personally think Susie would be such a good candidate for protagonist of a Bendy movie..... anyway if human Susie is in it, she doesn't have a canon appearance so you have a lot of freedom here. Most important thing is that She Has The Range; she needs to be able to be both believably naive and starry-eyed in a likeable way rather than coming across as desperate or annoying, and she ALSO needs to have a ruthless energy in her so that her later Womens Wrongs don't come out of nowhere. If Twisted Alice AND Susie both make appearances, I'm torn on whether they should be played by the same person... it could be cool if they were, since then you could see a lot of Susie in Alice even when she's behaving VERY DIFFERENTLY, which I think would humanise Alice in a good way (and also humanise Susie as more than just a Sweet Naive Girl Who Was Tricked)

Either way Twisted Alice NEEDS TO BE HOT. IM NOT JOKING I THINK THIS IS THE PRIORITY. Yes yes half her face is melting, but her vibes are UNIRONICALLY "hot and evil and wants to vivisect someone." Like, it would also be nice to get someone who can play her with dimension, with an implication that she has reason to be a cartoon evil sexy person who flies into a shrieking rage beyond just women be crazy (which is kind of what she is in the games), but also, she IS a cartoon evil sexy person and you CAN'T lose that; she needs to be able to pull off EVIL AND HOT with half her face gone without it feeling like a parody. Lesbians in the audience need to fan themselves. ITS VERY IMPORTANT.

I don't have a ton of thoughts about Allison. We have a pretty specific physical description of her human self. She needs to have enough ethereal poise to justify the lovesick way she is described in every novel lmao. Allison Angel, though, is where I would put a priority of Needs A Character Actor i think; she's a fairly major character but it's so hard to get a good handle on what she actually like..... wants or feels beyond Helping The Protagonist and Being A Good Person, but if she could really sell the bits and pieces so well you believe it, so that she really seems like she's been harshened by the brutal world she lives in but genuinely values a hope she won't let go of, it could make the character really good.

Sammy.............. Well, it's hard to not be biased. But human Sammy has no canon appearance, so I think you can't go wrong there as long as you pick someone who could conceivably be described as "pointy", and I PERSONALLY think based on the little crumbs of description we've gotten that a human Sammy should be fairly distinctive and intense, attractive in a Strange way - but I think the really really important thing for Sammy (ink or human) is his vocal performance. This is a character who took off in popularity in large part because of a couple of really compellingly delivered monologues; Sammy's voice NEEDS to be right, especially when he's speaking quietly. I think physicality in the sense of How He Moves is ALSO really important for him; Sammy's wiggle-fingers in game and constantly odd descriptions in the novels and complete lack of personal space in both all imply that he moves Strangely, and I do think he should have an unsettling Renfield energy, but it's also so easy for Character Who Is Losing His Mind to get portrayed so over-the-top that it becomes goofy or unbelievable or weird for the sake of being "creepy". Sammy's energy shouldn't be Insane Batman Villain, it should be Doomed Guy In A Lovecraft Story -- it's just that nobody but him is in a lovecraft story.

there are other characters but I think these are all the ones i have thoughts on

Dear Maya, to others you may be just a fictional character and maybe not many people know you or remember you but to me you're more than just hope, and you're engraved in my heart. Your words "always say yes to life." Shall be my life motto from now on.

To myself, for what I learned about life today.

At the start of the movie I thought it was just another children's movie as the protagonists were teens in their highschool. But to my surprise I was wrong and proved that "never judge a book by its cover." because it wasn't something I assumed. It was something even more beautiful than I expected. This movie has friendship—one friend being rebellious and selfish other one being soft hearted, kind and empathetic—mischievous deeds of teens, calm parenting, school life, small town aesthetics, crush, letters, depressed and lady with trust issues who's wealthy but not happy. It has broken friendship arc, guilt, remorse and years later phase, college, relationship, hesitation in accepting proposal, scars from the past because of prank. Second chance friendship arc, and a very beautiful ending with unexpected twist. Music was great as well, I added 2 songs to my liked playlist because it has motivating vibes. Great storyline, acting music, and everything. Maybe others might find this movie boring but to me it wasn't.

Idk if everyone can notice what I noticed but it has this scene where Maya releases birds she kept caged as her pets. Maybe it's to portray that "Don't cage yourself in your comfort zone because of fears and insecurities because the world is vast and the sky is vaster. Find yourself and things which can give you happiness. Get out of your confinement and say yes to life." That's my perspective about movie and scenes.

So it's about two girls—Anna and Ira—who starts writing prank letters–(pretending to be an imaginary man they created who's in love with her and wants her to live happy life.) to wealthy, yet gloomy, depressed scared of human interaction, middle aged lady "Maya" who lives in the neighborhood–out of boredom. Later Maya slowly gets convinced and starts changing herself, her dressing, starts interacting with others just a bit. Sells her house and goes to Delhi in the search of the "man" who sends her love letters. Which scares one of the girls and she gets stressed thinking what'd happen to Maya because that man doesn't exist in the first place, while the other one doesn't care about the consequences. Anna confesses about prank letters to her parents out of guilt, they send her to boarding school and her friendship with ira ends up in thorns.

Years later everything has changed and but Anna is still searching for Maya in Delhi while living her college life, she even has a boyfriend—Rahul—who proposes her but she asks for time to consider everything. Ira has became quieter than before because of huge incident. Anna comes back to Shimla, her hometown, to meet her parents. Ira and she reunited but Anna isn't ready to forgive her for what she did in the past and they go back to Delhi to search for Maya once again because Ira says she has found Maya's address. And they end up going to Delhi together, things happen, they argue and Anna finds out what happened to Ira in her absence. They reconcile and unexpectedly finds Maya because of Anna's Missing posters. They meet her and after seeing her completely changed in brighter clothing and full of smile living a better life they get shock of their lives and they ask her what happened after she came to Delhi alone to search for her "lover". Maya tells them what happened, her journey about finding happiness and movie ends with twist.

It was such a beautiful movie, it left quite an impression on my heart. Like how Maya decided to come out of her confinement and comfort zone to find happiness. She goes around the city, tries food, buys clothes and jewelry and enjoys life. She understands that, to live life one must abandon their fears. How Anna didn't give up and kept searching for Maya, how Ira had character development. And how they learned lesson through their prank letters.

At the end, I'd say that they should make this kind of movies more. Slice of life.

Hi Jenn! 🤲🦋 for ask game!!

Thank you for the ask 🥰💚

🦋what are you most insecure about when you post a fic?

The temptation to write all of it lol but no. I think it's mostly that my writing is inextricably attached to myself, so it feels like I'm putting a part of myself out into the world, and if no one likes it, that can feel very personal (I'm getting better at not thinking this way, but it's still in the mix).

In a more specifically writerly sense, I struggle a lot with smut, even the 'fade to black' variety - as I described it to @ainulindaelynn recently, it feels like a struggle to balance a kind of 'the whole cosmos has slipped off it's axis' vibe with the everyday reality of intimacy. I don't want it to be too much, but it has to be meaningful too, if that makes any sense.

I am also insecure about paragraph length hahaha but I am much better at letting go of that than the rest, because I reason that writing is an art, and we're allowed to do things strangely if we want to. No one can stop us.

🤲what do YOU get out of writing?

I love the creative process, I love when I am so into a character they're just writing themselves. I feel like I've lived many lives, it takes me outside of my own very narrow existence, leads me into thinking really deeply about points of view not at all my own, and it's just... so freakin' fun [if we pretend that editing doesn't exist for a minute, lol]. And perhaps most of all, I love that it connects me to people, friends, I would otherwise never have crossed paths with 😊

Let's Get ((REAL)) fic writer asks if you wanna ask me something :)

[blue-dot-dott]

i'm procrastinating studying rn so here's a list of my kins and reasons why i kin them

*drum roll*

nimona (nimona)

chaoic gremlin, genderfluid, "fuck the government" personified, just wants to be accepted and loved for who she is, pretends to be "a villain" and plays into that "evil" role society made for her to protect herself emotionally, destructive

blitz (helluva boss)

chaotic, traumatized, parents would've wanted someone else as their child instead of him, hides insecurities and inferiority complex behind fake big ego

catra (she ra and the princesses of power)

mommy issues, her mother would've wanted someone else as her child instead of her, "this person hurt me so i'm gonna be successful, beat them in every aspect of life and shove my success and their failure in their face every time i see them" mindset

marcy (amphibia)

unimportant friend in a trio, friends don't share her niche interests, very much a daydreamer, "i excel at school so i can play video games and read comics/manga and watch cartoons/anime/movies" vibes, escapes reality by running away into a fantasy world where everything is magical and amazing and new and interesting

luz (the owl house)

"the truth can't hurt me if i pretend it doesn't exist" mindset, daydreamer, escapes reality by running away to a fantasy land where everything is not better, but new and interesting, lies to loved ones about her own wellbeing in order to avoid worrying them, has absolutely no idea what she wants from life or where she's going or what her future is

amity (the owl house)

mommy issues, "i've been following my parents orders blindly and not even thinking about my life up until a certain point when i realized that the life they chose for me doesn't fit me/isn't something i want for myself and now i have to rebel/convince them to let me make my own choices" mindset

willow (the owl house)

insecure af, nice and kind towards her friends and ready to murder anyone who even considers harming them, "everyone has bigger issues than me right now so i'll focus all of my attention on being there for them and i'll be emotionally vulnerable and deal with my issues later, wgen everything gets resolved" mindset (which leads to bottling up emotions despite having friends for support)

gus (the owl house)

gifted kid TM, his skills are so integrated into who he is that he has an existential crisis every time he mildly fucks up anything he's usually good/great at

diane (bojack horseman)

"good damage." that's it.

well that's all folks! thank you for coming to my ted talk / therapy session! i'll see you when/if i survive exam week!! :D

[kmze]

Thoughts on 2x01 - 2x11 So much better than S1, I am so much happier having more characters involved in the storyline and Katherine is such a great villian. I also noticed the lighting is warmer and brighter this season. I think I read somewhere that was intentional because they were introducing werewolves (warm orange hue) whereas the first season was vampires (cold blue hue). Also feel like I can SEE the scenes now (modern lighting on shows is the bane of my watching experience everytime) Random thoughts under the cut!

I cannot stress enough how much Katherine makes everything better, Nina deserved more accolades for how she played two very different characters interchangeably so flawlessly. Her presence even made me care more about the love triangle and the albit messed up dynamic. I mean her and Elena look EXACTLY the same and the Salvatore's want me to believe there's no transference issues? I'm so sure.

I definitely get more from Stefan and Katherine than I do from Damon and Katherine though. Katherine brings out the meaner side of Stefan that he pretends doesn't exist and I appreciate that. She is clearly still under his skin though as much as he wants to deny it because I really loved their scenes in 2x04.

Damon and Elena have great sexual tension and chemistry but I just cannot vibe with it because he killed her brother like a month ago?? I just continue to be flabbergasted by that (I am a hater).

Obviously I have seen the Stefan and Caroline scenes from 2x02 and 2x03 dozens of times but watching them like this in a rewatch makes me love them even more. Especially their scenes in the woods and at the swimming hole, Stefan is so much lighter around her. Even his scenes with Lexi last season didn’t feel as effortless. I know this early on he's friends with her because of Elena and "hero-boyfriend" duties but he still let her distract him at the grill because I think he genuinely likes being around her. Him showing her his insecurity about Damon and Elena already shows they have a lot of trust building between them. I love them.

I was so happy and almost cried at Liz being the first person to see how much Caroline changed when she became a vampire! The physical strength gave her so much confidence and Liz saw that instantly. It was so sad watching Caroline (kudos Candice) have to compel that away. I was just thinking in S1 like damn I can't believe their relationship was this rough but this moment sold how and why they become so close in the later seasons.

It’s really not a surprise Aimee and Sarah died, they were always too eager to get wasted in a town with mysterious deaths weekly. The odds were never in their favor. Katherine killing Aimee on the dance floor in front of everyone had me cracking up though! The best crazy bitch ever. The masquerade episode was probably my favorite so far in my rewatch, this is when the contrived events work with everyone playing a part in the game!

Caroline turning into a vampire really helped start to remove her from being stuck under Elena. Especially now as she's getting involved in Tyler's storyline who truly has nothing to do with Elena narrative-wise. She's even got her own love triangle brewing already.

I like how easily Stefan accepted he was going to be stuck in the tomb with Katherine for a few days, as if it was a weekend retreat. In all honesty he probably wanted to avoid Elena and the self sacrifice mission so he wouldn’t have to go along with it since he’s in “boring-choice-matters-self” mode. Because I thought it was odd he wouldn’t let Elena even see him and then told Damon to keep her away from there, so that's my theory.

Trapping Elena in the house was the best move for everyone involved. I’m sorry but the whole suicide mission was getting on my nerves. Girl shut up and sit down.

Someone should really have told Jenna already about vampires because then she'd stop inviting them into the house! Sadly I do not care about Alaric and Jenna either, I remember when I first watched I did but now, meh.

Bonnie and Jeremy are cute I don't care what anyone says! I know they have their issues in the later seasons but they could have come back to them, I can't have nice things.

Bonnie and Damon really do have great chemistry as enemies to reluctant allies, I will never forgive TPTB for denying me this.

Elijah is zzzzzz so far.

Lines that made me laugh:

Damon: Elena’s on a martyr tear that rivals your greatest hits (I yelled! he wasn't lying oh my god!)

Caroline: They were more... gold with amber highlights (she's so unintentionally funny)

[waterfall-ambience]

information on damien vexx's non-existent childhood and infancy ('what if they realised he was 'alive' much earlier? how would that have gone?'). some of this will never be relevant, it's equivalent to headcanons, but i had fun thinking about it regardless:

older than avery, though not by much. im not sure how it works out specifically considering both of them were grown in vats, but damien has the vibes of someone who was born a few weeks premature. little guy.

captain luna quickly takes responsibility, and the gods are a bit obsessed with watching him be a father at 200+ years old. he has some experience dealing with infants but he himself never had children.

the perpetua key is kept FAR AWAY from the kids. luna is NOT risking anything.

there is a photo of damien and avery as newborns that everyone talks about, mostly because they find the size difference between them to be amusing.

luna and minerva both turn up to meetings swaddling their children, especially after they were just born. they end up trading parenting tips.

damien is a bit of a fussy baby. he cries often and sounds like a small cat. he doesn't like the bottle but they really don't have any other options because hey, clones.

avery, on the other hand, is much calmer and more quiet. he doesn't cry or babble as much.

damien learns to talk slightly early (+ with a lisp), though his more 'diplomatic' behaviours are from mimicking captain luna rather than anything else. uses 'tetu' for 'thank you'. one time luna sang along to a lullaby they had on CD damien told him 'dada, lets just listen' ('dad, shut up').

damien is not a difficult toddler, per se, but he can come across as a bit of a brat/priss/what have you (though it's hardly intentional). years later, avery notes that as a child damien always seemed to be in some state of discomfort.

(^^ was it the ambiguous neurodivergency? possibly. there's a story about him saying the same phrase over and over again for over an hour, though otherwise his 'developmental milestones' and forms of pretend play read as exceedingly normal, so luna never got him checked for anything back then.)

damien's presence in a lot of their home videos are marked by his coughing (diagnosed with asthma at age 3, has hygiene practices burned into his brain from then on but he still sounds like an ipad kid)

avery is more of an adventurous child. after the first couple of years he gets louder and starts talking a lot and he finds joy in tackling people (damien doesn't like it as much, and they both learn a valuable lesson about expressing boundaries and not playing too rough).

avery gets his hair cut into an asian bowl cut for the first time, and goes "i'm a boy!! :D " upon seeing himself in the mirror (damien reacts in a similar manner once he sees him). avery keeps his hair like this forever.

minerva learns that avery struggles with reading aloud so she makes him read to damien anyway (similar to how things are in canon)

in this turn of events, the kids are much more like siblings or cousins than anything else (and no future romantic interest here! definitely not!). they bicker a lot when they're small but once they hit 8-9~ years old, they're best friends.

they do A LOT of pretend play. in their adventure stories, avery likes being the hero and damien sometimes dabbles in being the person who has to be saved.

"you hit me!! (sobs)" "shh it's okay! you can hit me back!" "(sobbing continues)"

they cheat off each other's homework at one point and both get scolded.

avery's major point of insecurity is more focused on him being 'talentless' than because early on damien proves to be an adept magic user. the kid waits on a miracle like crazy.

damien's full name in this version of events is something along the lines of 'fabian augusto luna' (captain luna names him after augustin as a way of circumventing the possibility of him being 'brought back wrong')

millennial culture is never wanting to ask people if they like you/are your friend because you grew up with toxic positivity and hyper-independence culture shoved down your throat, telling you to not give a fuck about other peoples’ opinions because if you do you’re a sad little turnip that is totally unlovable. thoughts?

Hi! I was wondering if you could do a oneshot set around season 6 ep 12 (when Abraham tells Rosita he doesn't want to be with her) and Rosita goes to the reader as her best friend for comfort and the reader starts to get insecure about their relationship with Daryl and it's just some sweet fluff of reassurance if that makes sense? (Could even put in some smut if it vibes with you 🙈)

Love love love your writing!! Thank you for everything you do!

Hi Anon!! Thanks for your words it means a lot to me!❤

Sorry if it takes me longer than I pretended, I'm taking all your requests slow because I want to write something good enough you'll love it!

Thanks for your request! I liked the idea and soft Daryl is becoming a thing that I really enjoy to write 🤭🤭.

I hope you like it!!

"I love ya."

Daryl Dixon x FemReader.

Anon Request.

Alexandria Era Season 6.

Warnings: Fluff and soft Daryl. Fluff smut(I'm not really sure if this exists🤣), babies... maybe.

Words: 1685.

You have to admit it's something you don't expect to happen. When Rosita arrives at your house in tears, you are confused. Between sobs and curses you manage to understand that Abraham has left her and that surprises you even more.

You have known Rosita for a long time, you were neighbors, you had a friendly relationship, from time to time you talked and even spent your weekend afternoons having coffee. However, when the dead began to rise, you joined forces to survive and your friendship became much stronger and you were a great support for each other. When you met Abrahan and Eugene you immediately saw that your friend had feelings for the redhead and for a moment you thought they would be a strong couple, that they would last forever.

But it hasn't been like that. Abraham has fallen in love with another woman and Rosita is devastated. And you understand. You've been through so much together, you've lived together for so long, Rosita really fell in love and now....

You don't know how much time you spend trying to calm her pain, she is a strong and determined woman, but also her independent character makes her irrational sometimes, you try to make her see reason, to make her understand that despite the pain she can't fall apart, she has to be strong, as she has always been.

You leave her in her room when mental and physical exhaustion overcomes her and she falls asleep. You have covered her with the sheets and now you go down to your own room, you enter the basement of the house and you feel your stomach vibrating with nervousness. Your friend's situation makes you hesitate and you are suddenly afraid that something similar might happen to you. You hear the heavy tread of hiking boots and look up.

Daryl is in front of you, giving you a smile.

Daryl.

You remember the first time you met, his group had fallen into Terminus' trap and although you managed to get out they surrounded you in Gabriel's Church and you had to fight them again. You guys left with Eugene for Washington, but after a lot of things you all came back together. Daryl was always quiet and somewhat grumpy. He had his own way of accepting people, he never said anything, but he always had an eye on you in case you needed help with anything.

Little by little that dedication and affection managed to melt your heart and you dared to approach him wanting to know him better. He didn't oppose, at first he seemed awkward, even didn't talk too much, it was more like talking against the wall, but gradually you saw small changes and details that gave you the courage to take a step further and start a more serious relationship, perhaps more intimate between the two.

But now you have to be clear with yourself. You have never really talked about naming what you have. It's a relationship, of course, but neither of you have put your feelings on the table, not in that way.

And now you're afraid it could all be over in the blink of an eye.

Daryl's smile fades a little when he sees you say nothing. He puts the crossbow down on the couch and walks over to you. His thumb strokes your cheek causing you to look up, his blue eyes boring into you in a mute question.

"I'm fine, it's not..."

"Ya dun look fine." He leans into you and kisses you lovingly. "Tell me."

"It's just..." You sigh long looking at him sheepishly. "Abraham broke up with Rosita... she's heartbroken, she really loved him..." You whisper, his fingers twitch against your skin, but he forces you to look at him again.

"I'm sorry, sweetheart, do ya wanna be with her? I can sleep alone tonight." He offers, but you shake your head quickly.

"No, no, I need... I need you to be with me." You hold him tightly by the hand, you feel your eyes fill with tears and you feel stupid.

"Hey, hey." Daryl holds your cheeks wiping away your tears, his look is one of concern. "What's wrong with ya? Come on tell me."

"It's just... I'm scared..."

"Scared? Of what?" His concern turns to confusion, he is not the greatest expert in relationships and that is beyond his knowledge.

"That one day you'll get tired of me, that you'll suddenly realize that you've only wasted time with me, that... that I'm not enough for you..."

"What?" Daryl's voice is fully charged with disbelief, not quite sure his ears have heard correctly. "Look at me." He asks holding you by the cheeks, forcing you to lift your head once more. "Stop it, okay? Stop talkin' bullshit. I ain't... I ain't gonna get bored with ya, never. Nor do I think I'm wasting my time with ya. I ain't good at this, y'know that, ya've always been there for me when I've doubted anything. Do ya really think I need someone else?" A small smile tugs at his mouth and he caresses your lips with his thumb. "Yer important to me, I-I love ya..." He confesses and your eyes widen.

He loves you. Maybe it has escaped him, but he has said it. You look at him with bright eyes discovering that his cheeks are red, it even looks as if the tips of his ears have the same color, he is nervous, surely waiting for your reaction or at least for you to say something, but you have remained mute. Nervously he scratches the back of his neck and snorts in frustration.

"Really?" That's all you're able to say.

"No, I'm kiddin'." He rolls his eyes. "Of course really I ain't... I dun say things like that often. It's hard for me is... it's weird for me, but I know how I feel." Again he kisses you, wanting to make his words clear. You sigh and feel your heart beating much faster now, you hug him and hold on to him kissing him eagerly.

"I love you too, Daryl." You smile as you pull away from his mouth and you can see him blush again.

"Good, and now come here." He holds you by climbing up on his waist and you can't help but laugh. "I've been away from home for several days and I've missed ya." He confesses again, you laugh low but let yourself do it, he pulls you into the bedroom and you both fall onto the bed, Daryl on top of you, kissing you again.

"I missed you too..." You whisper caressing his cheeks pushing away the less of hair so you can see him. Daryl leans in kissing you again.

Slowly your kisses become more demanding, more needy, your tongues tangle, gasps escape seeking some air, but you kiss again. Your hands travel nervously and anxiously over each other's body, wanting to tear off the clothes on your skin. Daryl positions himself on top of you again, he caresses your legs as he kisses your belly slowly moving up your body, licking your chest, kissing and biting your neck making you sigh, your hair standing on end all over your body, you close your eyes enjoying the sensation as his hard cock starts rubbing against your pussy, his tip stimulating your clit with gentle touches.

"Y'know what I thought when I saw Maggie's ultrasound?" he whispers in your ear still moving slowly. "I thought ya'd look beautiful with our baby in yer arms." He grunts and you need to look at him, make sure he's not joking. He's serious, but his eyes sparkle with intensity.

"A baby? Daryl that's..." You don't even know what to say.

"I know this world sucks, that it's dangerous, I would never..." He pauses for a moment because he needs to speak honestly to you. "I was always afraid of becoming my father but... when I saw that picture I could only think of ya..." He finishes the sentence with a thread of a voice and you feel your heart melt.

"A little Dixon learning to use the crossbow like his father." You smile, Daryl lifts his head and you nod. "I'd love that."

Your lips meet once more, desire and need growing by the minute, Daryl moves over you again, his cock rubbing against your folds again. His fingers work their way into your vagina, his mouth moving down your neck to your chest where he toys with your nipples by sucking them into his mouth or rubbing them with his tongue. You arch and moan, lifting your hips, wanting to feel him inside you at last. Daryl doesn't wait to be begged and carefully pushes himself inside you. You both gasp, his cock stretching you, your walls tightening around him. He moves slowly increasing the pace as you move with him, reaching a speed where you both move at the same time, fast, deep, giving you both more pleasure. You feel you are about to cum, but Daryl is no better, as his hips begin to move more erratically and his hands grab your ass to thrust deeper.

You feel him trembling on top of you as he spills inside you, a quiet moan escapes his lips, his face is hidden in your neck and his fingers twitch against the skin of your ass. You yourself are enjoying the sensation of your own orgasm squeezing around his cock, digging your nails into his back.

Slowly his hips stop moving until he is lying on top of you, his hands resting on the mattress so that his full weight is not on you. When your breaths come in rhythm and your pulse calms, Daryl slowly rolls off of you and lies down next to you. He pulls you to lie next to him and wraps his arms around you, caressing your back and belly tenderly. You smile, settling against his body, leaning against his chest, closing your eyes, tired and happy. You feel the sheets fall over you and your drowsy state increases.

"I love ya, girl." It's the last thing you hear before you fall asleep in his arms.

THE END.

I hope you liked it!!

I'll see you in the next story!!

[harriertail]

If Flamepaw pulls a complete evil Bristlefrost that would be awesome and make him more bearable. Can't really stand his whiney ass at the moment but if he went sorta evil? Yes!

Idk about giving evil Flamepaw predictions before Sky because we don't know the big bad yet AND i think he had barely any time in River to actually flesh him out (it was so short) BUT

I think he could be an antag figure, and I'd like him to I guess but i just don't really see it. He's insecure but not insecure enough to shut the fuck up. He could def cause problems with cats who are uncertain about the changes/not changing so prefer to take the easy route and just abandon it all- who cares about a code of honour if you just don't live by one- who cares about feeling uncertain about the world if you just don't care. His insecurity about being called out for actually caring about being a good warrior when he is a failure of one (failed assessment I guess?) doesn't need to exist if he just publicly announces he doesn't care. Like when you break up with someone and you just don't care so you're posting on twitter than you definitely don't care! I don't care about the haters in my DMs!! God!! you're all such losers I dont care lol - he's already prone to outbursts so him being an annoying shit and stiring up trouble at Gatherings, then getting banned from Gatherings, thne being an annoying shit in ThunderClan- a shockjock type- could be interesting. He's not got the skill of Jayfeather or Yellowfang (etc) to make his outburts tolerable. Exile (mirroring Sparkpelt's?) to another Clan (SkyClan?), where he secretly thinks he's gonna totally fit in more now he's out of ThunderClan and away from the legacy that is dragging him down but realises they don't like him and he's an asshole and made a mistake, could be interesting + let us see another Clans POV (the Sky-Shadow conflict that is hinted at imho). 'Redemption' in undoing the anti-code rhetoric he's helped stir up and working harder to be a better person.

I know the Erins are probably gonna make him a super good warrior (wins fights hunts great etc) because their only characteristic for 'bad warrior' is failing an assessment but god please actually make him a burden on the Clan. can't hunt, can't fight, gets his ass kicked by WindClan apprentices- he can pretend to brush it off by saying he wasn't actually trying lol do you actually try against apprentices?- would actually be interesting. don't shove him to the med den, make him actually fucking useless because he doesnt try to improve his skills.

But again, I don't think he's got the charisma or drive to actually make real change in the narrative. He'll just whine and let things happen to him- which could be interesting if the other characters point it out etc. i legit think he could be interesting, insecure about his legacy and how he will live up to it when he feels like no one loves, wants, or believes in him , however a) all his pain is literally self inflicted (yes cats bring up that hes related to firestar but its so obvious its "don't feel bad about yourself you have good blood just have more faith :)!" and not "fucking waste of space you") which makes him a lot harder to like, b) he has no drive and is just bitter for bitter's sake. i may have read him wrong but he doesn't seem like he wants to be a good person or try, hes just a cunt lol, c) the Clans could be seen to be 'throwing the past away'.

Again we're only on book1 but an antag-ish role would be fitting

TL:DR he has 30 year old son who doesn't get a job or go to school vibes. maybe he's afraid of failing or whatever but he's already failing so he's just gonna keep failing harder and harder.

hi if you make one for me i would appreciate it

your personality

loyal, introverted, calm, most of the time I'm always smiling, but never and really I'm a very depressed person I don't like to show my true feelings to others, sometimes I lock myself in my room for days, sometimes I'm very manipulative a little sadistic , I know what I want and I don't abandon anyone, quite stubborn, I'm like a tsudare, sarcastic, I try to solve problems in the conversation if I'm not afraid to succeed in the fight, sometimes I end up pushing people away because I'm afraid of disappointment, I don't let people come easily into my life, but who isn't, I always do everything to protect, enthralled, I hardly sleep

-What do you look like

my sign and libra, I'm 1.60 tall,

brown hair that goes over the shoulder, but I always leave it up, brown eyes, I almost always wear baggy clothes because my breasts are big and I'm embarrassed when they look at me, I'm also insecure because I have a lot of high mutilation scars, sometimes sometimes i'm a bit perverted

-what do you like

music, books, quiet places, animals, horror and action movies, drawing, sewing, macabre things

do not like

crowded places, people, monotonous things, leaving the house, doing unnecessary things that won't yield anything, talking

- what are you looking for in a relationship,

someone loyal patient, who I know will always be by my side, who is not afraid to say what he wants and what he wants, but also respects my space, who doesn't care about my sadistic side, and my silence

gender preference too

male, except taijo, baji, nayoha, i'm not comfortable with them

-and any facts about you think might work ♡

I'm very loyal, and would always be there to support and listen, he would always try to show my true feelings.

well i think it might have been a little confused i don't know how to spread it well if you want you don't need to do more if you have to😊

I match you with...

¡! Kawata Souya ¡!

Why?

You and Souya would be a complimentary duo, whenever you feel down he would comfort you and viceversa, he loves you in every possible way no matter your mood. Your relationship would be based around intimacy and little, simple moments you both share.

general headcanons:

¡! SFW ¡!

you met at a Toman meeting, you were part of the 4th division and Nahoya was talking to you about being more present in fights and stop messing with your division's victory. Souya saw you very uncomfortable and decided to step in the conversation and give the message to you instead of his brother.

he then later started looking towards your way more often, noticing how you were normally pretending. it seemed like only him noticed your behaviour so he tried to reach you, but being an introvert himself was a challenge.

mikey knew about Souya's interest in you, he started ordering both of you little errands together.

it was super awkward at first because none of you knew what to say

Souya asked for his brother's advice but got nothing good from it.

just like Chifuyu's plan b, he opted for courage.

he tried to approach you little by little, it took him months to get your number but he wanted to know you better

dates would normally occur by accident, you meeting him at a random place and then he inviting you to go for a walk around the city.

after almost a year (10 months to be specific) he asked permission to be your boyfriend. he went to your house with a bouquet of daises, mostly white and the attempt of a smile (he looked very cute ^^)

to others, your relationship was slow, but to Souya it was perfect, he didn't want to push you and respected your limits all the time.

when you told him about your depression he didn't knew what to do, he just gave you the most loving and warm hug he could give, you both cried

he loves you the way you are, he wouldn't change a thing from you

when you doubt yourself he'll reassure you of the amazing being you are and how special you are to him

will recommend you to look for help if you aren't getting it, and would accompany you to your appointments

always checks on you, he doesn't see you as a burden, he just wants to make sure you are safe and okay

whispers sweet nothings to you when you cuddle

likes to hold your pinky when you are in public

will blush hardly when he sees you in an outfit

marathon movie dates, he always gets scared af because of your excentric taste but uses it as an excuse to be near you

asks you to read to him, your voice calms him so much

you'll sleep the best with him, he is a human pillow and his hair is the softest

knows you are not a fan of Nahoya, so whenever you go to his house he asks Nahoya to go out or to stay quiet

you still see him a lot

Nahoya talked to you about your relationship with his twin and asked you to protect him, you also discused some things just to be clear about what you didn't like about him, he obviously stopped because he knows his brother loves you too much.

you are the only one who has seen him smiling, not even Smiley has seen him like that.

is the sweetest smile that exists, gives beautiful vibes, he does it more often for you

his love language might be quality time and acts of service

it doesn't matter where he is as long as you are there he is happy

¡! NSFW ¡!

again, he will never pressure you to do anything

sex isn't very important to him

he's a switch, more on the sub side

loves to fuck you face to face

will eat you out for hours just because he can and he enjoys it

and believe me when I say he can, because he CAN and WILL make you scream in seconds

loves your body so much

loves to bury his face in your breasts, licks them and sucks them up

his tongue is a god tool and will put it to use

the first time he saw your scars he kissed them, wouldn't want you any other way

praises you like if his life depended on it

its all about your pleasure

if you enjoy it, then he does it too

likes to be degraded

super sensitive in his neck and lower back

it turns him on when you are being perverted and try to tease him

loves you riding him, getting the perfect view, squishing your hips and licking your boobs

his dick is very pretty, normal length and girth, pretty pink in the head, a mole near his crotch, trimed

he prefers you to have hair

likes to cry during the act

choke him, trust me, the "demon" comes out

normally passionate sex, but angry sex with him is the best (lol)

sex in the bathroom is the most common

aftercare is amazing

makes you cum like 4 times, just to see his pretty s/o being in heaven by his own actions <3

[daisies: pureness]

hope you liked it love! I know depression sucks but you are not alone, I'll be here whenever you need me bubs 😚💖

¡! song recommendation ¡!

why don't you vibe with Rachel?

sorry this took a while, anon. i've been trying to figure out how to answer it because the short answer is that rachel tends to awaken a lot of frustration within me if i think about her for too long. i don't really know why i get as heated as i do just with her but it just happens. it's weird because i don't usually have strong negative feelings towards people, so there might be something aside from the more in-depth explanation i wrote under the cut that i just can't put my finger on right now.

rachel is one of the characters in glee whose storylines are regularly shoved in the audience's face, like the writers are trying real hard to get us to care about her. the thing is, though, i could not care less about most of it? i'm generalising a bit but half of her storylines are centered around finchel/her other romantic interests, and the other half is about how she wants to sing this song or play this role and how she deserves the spotlight more than the other glee kids and can't imagine a world where she's wrong about that. and then if it doesn't work out, she gets really overdramatic and we're stuck listening to her complain about things. even in the finchel dynamic, which i am not a huge fan of, a big part of their season 3 storyline is rachel talking about nyada and new york and ignoring all of finn's insecurities about what to do after high school. when puck told finn that he needed to start thinking about himself, i felt that. the fact that rachel treated even her close friends like garbage without even realising it until they stood up to her like kurt eventually did? everything just revolves around her and it's exhausting.

another thing i dislike relates to this gifset i reblogged on my sideblog. rachel gets so much favoritism regarding her singing/talent - it is mainly from schuester, whom i ignore, but it's so blatant. it gets to the point where other characters, particularly mercedes and tina, are used to taking a back seat because "only rachel can do this" and sure, rachel is talented and does put on some great performances, but that statement just doesn't sit right with me. everyone in glee club is talented, but most of them get sidelined in favour of letting rachel perform. i'm tired of seeing it, i'm tired of seeing rachel sing lead in almost every song in competition (with the exception of s2, where she assumed she'd sing the lead and then complained when she couldn't, and s3 sectionals where presumably the only reason she didn't sing was because she was banned from competing in the first place) or yet another solo after every minor inconvenience or argument, i'm tired of hearing her cover songs that don't suit her voice just for the sake of having her sing more, i'm tired of having to watch equally talented characters get pushed down just to stroke rachel's ego. not to mention erasing a bunch of interesting early-seasons friendships and giving them all to rachel instead (quinncedes? kurtcedes?) and of course i blame the writers for this, because they ignored so many characters who had a lot of potential to be interesting in order to let rachel shine more. i understand that with an ensemble cast as big as glee's, it might be harder to write parts that get an equal amount of screen time but you can tell they did not care about most of their characters. and as a result, they highlighted rachel so much that i just have to pretend she does not exist.

also... rachel's casual racism? need i say more? i know there were other racist comments from people like sue but sue is so obviously written as satirical and rachel does not have that same vibe. like that throwaway line to blaine about how they would have "vaguely eurasian-looking children"? as a relatively white-passing eurasian person that line always made me feel weird. or all of her comments towards mercedes. it wasn't really addressed aside from mercedes herself calling out rachel, even if it happened right in front of schue, and i don't appreciate that. there were a lot of double-standards in glee.

last but definitely not least is the part i struggle to put into words. i also might just be remembering some stuff wrong because it's been a while since i've watched through glee and i try to forget a lot of the rachel content anyway, so bear with me. some of my issues with rachel are similar to my issues with finn, in that they both do shitty things and then for the most part, they don't really face the consequences for it. in rachel's case, it does apply more to her high school self, because i do think she grows and faces reality more in the later seasons (ie: broadway and her downfall). Unfortunately for her, though, i tend to rewatch the first 3 seasons and then only pick certain episodes from the latter half of the show, so her high school self is more prominent in my mind. and of course she isn't the only one who does shitty things, 90% of the glee kids and adults have their shitty moments, but at least some of them grow from their mistakes and show proper development (it's not always consistent, but i blame that on the writers once again). with rachel - and maybe i'm just reading it wrong - it feels like her apologies aren't genuine? from what i can remember, they always come after she gets a lot of backlash for her actions or sees that her actions resulted in some shit going down with other people (ie: snitching to finn about the real father of quinn's baby, sunshine & the crack house, ditching funny girl for that tv audition, i'm blanking on other stuff right now) so it gives off the feeling that she's only apologising because people tell her she fucked up and she doesn't like hearing that, and not because she actually feels guilty and wants to do better.

that being said, i don't hate her anymore. at least i don't think so. do i like her? nope. but i've gotten to a point where i can go "yeah that was a sweet moment and i can appreciate that from her" and that's nice, because i really don't want to spend time and energy hating a character on a tv show (especially when there are worse characters on glee lmao). and i'm being very careful about how i portray her in vb au, because i do think that her dynamics with the rest of the team would be really interesting to explore.

GhostBoo? yeah...don't like him

hello fellow Beeduo enjoyers, endermen simps and bee protectors! I am here to deliver you guys a theory...well, i think is more of a essay, where i'm expressing my own thoughts on GhostBoo and what might happen to our platonic husbands now that Tubbo is going through his grief arc while being haunted by his late husband.

A disclaimer tho, i don't want to come across as stating that this is a fact, these are merely my own thoughts on the whole thing and i wanted to share it. Also is worth mention that some stuff i say might not correlate with the actual lore, as i'm using the wiki as my source instead of watching the whole thing, mostly because i am busy with other minecraft related shit.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it and have a nice day

This all popped in my head after recently seeing a fanart of c!Tubbo telling GhostBoo that "you're not him" and i would argue that...he's not wrong about that, maybe partially, but he's still in the right with that sentiment.

Sure, Ghostboo seems happy about not having so many worries and even calling his alive self to be annoying.

But arguably I feel like Ghostboo is not just the ghost of Ranboo, and the wiki says that he's Ranboo's mind while his soul is hanging out in limbo, thus Boo acts more on the logical side, but that's not who the Ranboo Tubbo knew was, at least not JUST what he was.

I feel like Ghostboo is also a representation of a side of Ranboo and Ran himself killed in his brain a long time ago, before the lore in the SMP began, a part of him that went against his old morale, helping everyone regardless of the side they choose.

Maybe this part of him chose a side that benefitted only himself and would later lead to people getting the consequences of his actions, maybe it has to do with that palace that is linked to time travel, as I am a subscriber on the theory that prior to the SMP Ranboo was a time traveler, and whatever happened in that mansion, made him either realize that choosing to benefit only himself when others got hurt was a bad decision OR that no matter which side he picked, people would end up getting hurt or would start Hating him.

Another thing that calls my attention is the dance and sing thing that could lead to Ghostboo stop existing, but I argue that this is merely Boo making up a excuse so that he doesn't act on something linked to a emotion, cause if he did, the soul would find the mind and thus old Ranboo would be back, and according to Boo, he dislikes his alive self, which I think Links to the fact that he's the mind of Ranboo, not only he acts more logically, he carries on the memories of his insecurities and inner thoughts, and by that I mean old Ranboo ALWAYS HELD THESE THOUGHTS, but now that he's dead, his mind sees no need to hide it, so he says it without a care.

In a way, Ghostboo is choosing to help others...but by doing something that only benefits him, cause Tubbo is still dealing with grief, and his presence isn't making things better, not to mention that he gave the house that was going to be for his family, and oh yeah, GhostBoo's reaction gave me the vibe that he thought his poor son had died but decided not to show emotion, cause again, Old Ranboo being back is not something Boo wants.

Now we got all of that out of the way, i want to share my personal scenario on what might happen once Ranboo comes back (he might stay a ghost forever but let's pretend that he might).

For starters, i think there are three key factors that might lead to Ranboo coming back, the first is obviously Michael, for obvious reasons.

The second one, also for obvious reasons, is Tubbo, who might confront Ghostboo at some point and a argument will ensue, and Ghostboo will pull his logic and say that they technically they didn't have a wedding, his proposal to Tubbo was dictated by the flip of a coin, and one of the few hings that Tubbo said when they got married was that he could be adulterous, Tubbo might argue that it was a joke but Ghostboo does not have his funny bone and reminds him that the basis of the usion is for tax purposes, so by all accounts he could get what he wanted, but Tubbo reminds him that he never did anything of that sort and tells him that he did it for Ran and Michael, whom Ghostboo has been ignoring, and finally Boo snaps and says that once he got to limbo he was convinced Sam killed him and only came to the house to leave a flower where his room was as a tribute, Ghostboo realizes that he just displayed anger and runs off.

And the final piece of the pouzzle, the guy that at first i thought that was their adoptive son, Tommy.

I can see Tommy going to Tubbo to comfort him, maybe he heard about the argument or he's just there because Ghsotboo was there now, and he ends up being there for a while longer, getting his own room in Ranboo's old house and taking care of Michael while Tubbo goes out in his Giref arc, one time when he goes out, he sees ghostboo in the distance looking at the house but runs once he sees that Tommy saw him.

Tommy ends up chasing him with Michael, and once they find him, Tommy tells Ghostboo he wasn't welcomed there, Ghostboo says he knows, cause he stole Tubbo, didn't name his kid after him and he was a complete jerk to Tubbo, but Tommy says that yes he did all of that but also he's letting Tubbo get away wirh some shitty stuff, Ghsotboo, hesitantly asks what happens and Tommy spills the beans on the giraf arc and Tubbo slowly getting off the rails, but he doesn't need punishment, he needs help, and finally Ghostboo decides to let the emotions go and chooses to go with Tommy and Michael to see Tubbo.

DRAMATIC SEQUENCE OF TUBBO AND RANBOO SINGING AND DANCING AND GHOSTBOO FANDES

But not to worry, in good old minecraft fashion, Ranboo, not Ghostboo, RANBOO, appears in his house, in his bed, and greets Tommy, Tubbo and Michael, the becnhtrio gets their happy ending.

I sometimes wonder why it seems like the two of them are on different wavelengths re: fanservice. Early on Rhett (GMCL era) seems preoccupied with applying bro-ettiquette to them even in an era when they were caught in 4k all over each other at diners and restaurants. It's clear to the observer these two guys are closer than bros. At some point Rhett became aware of fandom and especially with his own preoccupation with how he is perceived, with early Rhink fan speculation and fanworks. I get the vibe he was tickled by the existence of this stuff, if only because it is fan content and fan content that implies his desirability, and tangentially his masculinity as he was often especially in early fandom, portrayed in contrast to Link, who even then despite being the more stoic at times, people were picking up on his more gender non conforming attributes (whether from a place of relatability or riddicule). Even though as we know, Rhett is no stranger to putting on some lashes and feeling himself, he also enjoys being compared to the Brawny man in his spare time, and maybe sometimes Link is a too convenient scapegoat for Gay Feelings. 'Don't make it weird' is usually foisted on Link in the text, but the subtext is loaded with times Rhett was clearly into it. Rhett leaned into bits that teased this aspect of their relationship, possibly because he enjoyed the excuse to get closer to Link under the premise of comedy and more recently, trolling, but Link has almost always reacted more inconsistently, sometimes especially if something is scripted, planned or initiated by him he dgaf but when something is spontaneous he shrinks away, pretends to ignore or otherwise attempts to dismiss that gay shit(TM), if it involves Rhett. When it's a male guest or just a compromising position, topic or otherwise could be seen as quare Link is much less self conscious and is recently extremely comfortable. This leads me to believe , along with what you said about Link's need to feel safe in his place beside Rhett, that Link might just have insecurity tangled up in the thought that Rhett would interact with him disingenuously i.e playing to the audience. That he would be making part of their actual relationship 'a bit'. Link is sensitive about how Rhett squeezes his neighbour's shoulder, and weirded out by Rhett adjusting his seatbelt for Pete's sake. It's clear that their rules of what he can expect- their languages of physical intimacy and boundaries between the two of them- are sacrosanct to him. Asking your friend of almost 40 years to go RVing with you, to open up to you more, and having them waffle about it but then enthusiastically/sarcastically pitch the idea of an innuendo-laden Vlog Camping Trip #fortheclicks sounds painful asf. Link's fear of being used instead of wanted. Not to mention, if Link is queer and/or has/had feelings for Rhett that it might feel incredibly painful to have the concept of you two being a couple flouted as some kind of punchline, but one you feel obligated to participate in to keep your optics-obsessed friendsband around. I don't doubt Rhett's actual motives, I think the guy genuinely loves Link (I can't know what type of love that is), and maybe he's a little curious about breaking certain boundaries and exploring new territory as he is inclined to be, and Link just wants to keep things solid between them. I think Rhett is still bad at articulating and even understanding his own feelings and motives and so it comes off as trolling/baiting at the worst. And I think that there's no doubt some issues with masculinity, and a desire to play with those rules in a way that doesn't feel vunerable, and that whole thing is a perfect storm for maybe unintentionally putting Link in an uncomfortable position.

I dunno, I may have just caught the speculation bug but "How am I supposed to act about that again?" haunts me.

Perfectly and very eloquently said.

I agree with everything you wrote and I believe there are even more layers that complicate the situation.

Rhett feels against the viewers like Link feels against (mostly) him. Rhett is caught between exploring his relationship with Link (partly thanks to the viewers’ positive feedback and partly due to his own needs, curiosity and feelings) and feeling overwhelmed by the audience’s voyeuristic tendencies and their intrusion into what he now discovers. Hence, the out-of-nowhere explosion “you won’t get what you want”. His frustration is actually perfectly justifiable - Rhett fears (and he is right) that the audience is an ever changing unreliable beast. They could get criticism and lose their fanbase for the things the very same fanbase would love see them explore for fun. If they went public about how some things turned more serious than their fans expected, many of those very fans could turn their back on them and they would have hurt their business and families irreversibly.

“How do we act about this? I forgot” Evidence of an extra layer in their relationship: that of Mythical and all their employees. Rhett and Link probably keep several different profiles of their relationship depending on their surroundings. One for the viewers, on as bosses with their employees, one as straight family men and one for when they are alone.

Hi! Love your blog. I was wondering if you could do another poly!reader with Sean and Gab. Maybe one where the reader is a bit shy about the whole poly thing because she's never done it before? Like the reader sees Sean and Gab kiss but doesn't want to bother them, but Gab like grabs the reader and they shower her with affection? I just really like the idea of a dom!Gab and wanting the reader so badly.

Okay so I think I got the vibe you were going for here. Please let me know if I did or didn’t!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy either way 🖤🖤

—————————————

It wasn’t being in a poly relationship that made you feel shy, it was joining an already existing relationship. You knew how much Evelien and Sean loved each other. And while you loved that they loved each other and you loved them back, you couldn’t help but feel like you were intruding sometimes.

Especially because they lived together and you didn’t live with them yet. So technically, you were just a guest in their home.

At least, that’s how you saw it. As for Sean and Gab, they couldn’t have seen it more differently. Not only were you not just a guest, as far as they were concerned you DID live there. You just spent a few nights a week away from home.

From the moment you joined their relationship, they were unable to imagine their relationship without you in it. Evelien and Sean knew their relationship would stop working if you left.

Sean didn’t really understand how hesitation. He knew you loved him and you loved Evelien. So he didn’t see any reason for you to be insecure or shy or anything.

Evelien understood it better. She understood why you would feel that way. Though of course she thought it was ridiculous. But she at least understood it.

She also was willing to commit murder to get you to believe otherwise. She can’t stand the idea that one of her partners might not feel completely comfortable.

She shows this in small ways. Like she’ll make sure to take your hand when sitting next to you or she’ll take every opportunity to kiss you. She’ll also take every opportunity to say how much she loves seeing you and Sean kiss each other. Just to remind you that you’re not intruding.

Evelien will also playfully kick Sean out of the bedroom or living room claiming that she wanted girlfriend time. Sean pretends to be annoyed with this but really he finds it adorable and always ends up joining again about ten minutes later.

One morning, Evelien and Sean woke up before you and were making breakfast. They planned on surprising you with breakfast in bed but you woke up while they were still busy cooking. You walked into the kitchen and saw the two of them laughing and kissing.

You loved that sight. You really did. But you also felt like you weren’t supposed to see it. Like you were an intruder in their relationship.

Sean spotted you first and immediately whined because he wanted it to be a surprise. Evelien rolls her eyes at him and pulls you forward.

You kinda just stand there for a moment feeling awkward but then Evelien says “come on! I want kisses!” And tries to tug you forward again.

Naturally Sean objects to this and points out that he just gave her kisses. Evelien responds with “yes but I want girlfriend kisses” and gets you to move forward enough to be able to kiss you.

Your lips had barely touched hers before Sean yanked you away and went “well then I want other girlfriend kisses!”

And that’s the story of you went from being insecure about your relationship to being argued over because your boyfriend and girlfriend both wanted kisses.
