heyy gurll it’s 🫶🏾🖤 and on 02/26 it was my birthdayyyy!! and i just wanted to give you a list of what i manifesteddd and l started deciding and persisting my ‘desires’ 2-3 days before my bday so i got all of it on the day of.

-a whole appearance change from head to toe

-my dream lifeee

-some qualities and talents i wanted to have

-the ppl who hurted nd wished bad upon me finally get their karma 

-my mom becoming very lenient, chill and fun

-having straight A’s in all of my classes even if i don’t turn in work.

-getting all A’s on every test and quiz i take even the ones i did in the past.

-hella desired clothes, shoes, jewelry and accessories 

-my ex from 2 years ago wanting me back and starting to text me again  (but come to find out this dude has a whole ass gf and i’m thinking about deciding me and him don’t talk cus it feels wrong 😭)

-knowing how to cook, bake, draw, crochet, and do hair really good.

-“illogical” things 

-high ass spice and pain tolerance

-my lipgloss and aquaphor lasting for 12 hours straight without me having to reapply lipgloss or put some aquaphor on my face every 5 minutes 😭

-always having my manifestations pop up in the 3d in the blink of an eye.

-skincare and makeup (lashes and highlighter) products 

-and many moreee

so what i did was just make a whole ass script about the things i wanted to manifest and just put them as like i actually have it instead of me wanting it, cus i already have it duh.

then i would affirm:

“i am so happy i have my dream lifee and all of my desires from my “season 1 list” (that’s what i titled the list)

“the 3d instantly conforms to all of my ‘desires’”

and every time i thought of something on the list i just say those and start persisting a lil so i can remind myself i got everything i ever wanted. but i would rarely think of the list so i barely said it and i would already act like i have my ‘dream’ life and all of my ‘desires’. so it would rarely cross my mind. and did i have some negative thoughts? yeah i did. did i just let them pass by and/ or tell them to stfu? yes tf i did cus who you think you is coming up in my head and talking bout sum “nah this shi fake, you wasting your time” like stfu with that shit, i said what i fucking said and i said “i have all of my ‘desires’ and i have my ‘dream life’” and that’s fucking final and just went on about my day!!

oh yeaaa i’m also manifesting that you’ll get a shit load of followers and likes on all your post and that your account becomes really huge!! cus your very very helpful and sweet!!!! i love youuu soooooo muchhhh!!!!! 💝💝💝💝🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

pairing: bucky barnes x fem!reader

summary: after the events of the snap, you find out news that's both heart wrenching and warming. what happens five years later when bucky's back?

warnings: death, mourning, pregnancy, childbirth, canon-typical violence (not much but just adding to cover all the bases), loosely based on end game and infinity war (as in ignore my mistakes lmaooo), if i failed to mention any warnings PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

wc: 2.6k

a/n: dude idk why i've had an urge to write such heart wrenching angst lately. i'm actually in a decent place rn. i tried to cut this fic down bc originally it was SOOOO long i felt like a lot of it was just filler and i feel like shorter fics of mine tend to do better... ANYWHO! this does have a happy/hopeful ending so no worries! also picturing this beefcake for this story is AGHHHHHHH!

you never thought two lines on a stick could ever break your heart the way they did.

tears clouded your vision as you gripped the counter, trying not to crumble or succumb to your grief.

6 weeks ago, the avengers lost. everything.

half of the world, gone in a moment.

in one moment, your world collapsed. seeing bucky fade to dust right in front of you...

sobs wracked through your body as you crumbled to the ground.

this was supposed to be a happy moment. there should be tears of joy, not sobs of sorrow. your heart should feel full of love, not like there's a super-soldier sized hole in it.

"y/n," nat's voice rang outside the door, giving you a moment to yourself.

"just-," you tried to level your breathing before she opened the door, knowing but not understanding the grief you were feeling.

she wrapped her arms around your body, tucking your head into her neck as she gently rubbed your back soothingly. steve leaned against the bathroom door, glancing on the counter to see what they had all expected.

a positive pregnancy test.

you were having bucky's baby.

without bucky.

you gripped his dog tags that you had been wearing since the funeral. they were the only thing that could truly ground you.

they brought back happy memories of cuddling in bed, the cool metal shocking your skin for only a moment before realizing that it was only bucky and smiling at the memory.

god, it hadn't even been two months.

how were you supposed to do this alone?

"we're here for you," steve's voice called from the doorway, as if he could hear your thoughts. "you'll never be alone. not in this... not ever." he shook his head, his brows furrowed in a serious, straight line.

eventually, your sobs subsided. you stood with nat from your seat on the ground, wiping your own eyes mustering up a pathetic smile before she left you and steve to work out your grief together.

"we didn't even know it was possible," you shrugged. "it's like he sent me them..." you placed your hand on an invisible bump before facing steve, his teary eyes reminding you that he had lost his best friend, too. "he sent us this baby."

you reached your hand out for steve to hold. he took it gratefully and pulled you into his arms, hugging you tight and letting only a few tears slip his waterline before pulling back.

"if you'll let me, i want to be there for you for everything," his chin wobbled. "buck would kick my ass if i let you go through this alone." a genuine laugh left your lips for the first time in nearly two months.

"i would be so grateful for that," you nodded as you let go of his arms. "part of me still can't believe that it's real. it's like part of me still expects him to walk into the compound from a long mission or something..." you shook your head. "i know that sounds so stupid."

"it's not," he shook his head with a smile. "it's what i wish was true, maybe it's your subconscious trying to preserve your mind?"

"maybe," you shrugged before continuing, "i should probably talk to tony and bruce, huh?"

-

you knew you were around eight weeks along.

according to the doctors' tony had enlisted, however, you were already 12 weeks along, which was impossible.

bucky had been gone on a mission at that time... but it's whatever. you got to hear the heartbeat. steve went with you, too. you both bawled together. you kept three copies of the ultrasound and he kept two.

banner had already offered to do some testing on the dna of the baby, noting that the serum would likely affect the pregnancy (as it probably already has).

you had talked to tony about retiring from the whole superhero gig for the time being. you needed to mourn and prepare for a new life simultaneously. tony had promised to provide anything you needed at the drop of a hat, and he sure as hell delivered.

within no time, your pregnancy was being measured at 20 weeks while only being pregnant for 12. banner was concerned for your body's ability to keep up with the rapid rate of growth of the baby. he had you on a strict, hefty diet with two different prenatal vitamins in attempt to help your nutrition.

in spite of your best efforts, you were always exhausted and in pain. but you wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. this was bucky's baby. you didn't care how much pain you went through when you had half of him growing inside of you.

you couldn't walk for long without feeling like passing out, which banner chalked up to low iron. steve had grown progressively more worried for you and the baby the longer the pregnancy went on.

as a result, he had moved into the spare room that was in your and bucky's house. truly, it just made it easier for him to help you finish up the nursery anyway.

he was very handy about it all, painting, building furniture from scratch, the whole deal.

"i've been thinking... and if it's a girl, i want to name her evangeline james barnes," you informed steve as you ate the steak he had been making for the past few weeks of your pregnancy, as ordered by dr. banner. that with carrots, broccoli, potatoes, and for dessert strawberries, blueberries and raspberries over ice cream. "and if it's a boy, cyrus james barnes. evangeline means good news, and cyrus means sun."

steve placed his hand over yours, "i think buck would've loved them." he smiled warmly as you downed the food in a few minutes.

you had begun showing soon after you found out you were pregnant, but now, it felt like it was impossible to hide. nat had been wonderful about helping you keep up with the changes your body was going through, getting you new maternity clothes every week.

she even made sure to get you every single craving that wasn't in accordance to banner's hefty diet. not that he didn't want you to eat more, he thought it was best you did! but he also wanted to make sure that with all that you did eat, your body got as many nutrients as possible.

just to be safe, he kept you on other vitamin supplements anyway.

you couldn't help but imagine what bucky would say or do about everything now.

he would hold your body closely, pressing firm kisses to your bump every chance he could get while whispering some sickly sweet sayings to your unborn child, words that would melt the winter soldier's cold exterior.

he would whisper words of encouragement any moment you felt worried about your abilities to be a mom. he would say how beautiful you were, in spite of being bloated in places you didn't know could bloat.

he would be wonderful, and in your mind, he was still alive and vibrant. well, as vibrant as bucky ever was, at least.

truthfully, that's the only way you were able to keep going on like this. steve was wonderful, but you couldn't help but want the love of your life by your side as you tried to navigate this new chapter.

in a couple more weeks, you were projected to be at 32 weeks. bruce and tony were talking with your doctors about the safety of inducing so early, both for you and the baby.

oh, and you wanted the gender to be a surprise.

and within the week, you were having your baby.

steve and nat were by your side during the birth, whispering encouraging words and compliments of your strength.

"i need him!" you screamed in pain as you held one of each of their hands, sobbing in agony. "i need james! i need my bucky! i can't do this alone, i can't-i can't!"

"you can," nat reminded you. "this baby needs you," she held your face to look at hers. "bucky is a part of this baby." you swore you could see tears in her eyes before turning to face steve.

"remember what you told me when you found out you were pregnant?" he didn't bother wiping the tears from his face. "bucky sent you-sent us this baby. he knows you can do it." you sniffled before nodding at your two best friends, pushing with one last scream and a second later, you had...

"cyrus james barnes," the nurse called to you. "it's a boy, congratulations mom."

-

the next few years went by quicker than you could've ever imagined.

crawling, first words, first steps...

you missed bucky. not a day passed where you didn't miss him.

but, having cy helped a lot. he looked just like his father. dark brown hair, icy blue eyes, a cute little nose... not to mention his father's stubbornness.

you made sure he knew who his father was. you took him to the museum often, showing him the statue of his father and his background in the world war, him saving the world so much. you told him how you fell in love with him.

how you fell for the quiet man before ever really talking to him. how you were partners on a long-term, undercover mission and that's where your love ignited from the sparks.

not that cy understood any of what you told him. you just felt it was important to know that his parents loved him, and each other dearly.

you never took off his dog tags, either.

steve was a huge help the whole time. he kept working for the avengers, so he was gone often, but he provided a good male role model for cyrus. after all, he was his uncle steve. he already taught him how to throw a ball, albeit a little softball, but it counts!

you made sure to document everything that went on in yours and cyrus's life.

banner had said that cyrus was growing at an exceeding rate, but nothing to be concerned about. in fact, cyrus was turning five in almost half a year, meaning the anniversary of bucky's death, or disappearance or whatever you called it, was coming up.

then, you got a call from tony and banner.

it all happened so quickly, from testing to planning to the execution. pepper watched cyrus for you while you went back with steve, scott, and tony to get the tesseract.

of course, the men being men had to come upon a few hiccups, but eventually, after going as far back as the 70s, you brought back the tesseract.

the only thing is that nat never came back...

next thing you know, bruce is snapping his fingers and clint is getting a call from his supposedly deceased wife. your eyes fill with tears, hands searching in your pockets for your phone to see if you've gotten anything yet.

is it possible he wasn't brought back? he was the first to... disintegrate. die. maybe that meant something in the eyes of the stones?

then, you felt a buzz in your hand.

although, you didn't have any time to try to grasp what that meant, because more aliens came to earth.

shocker.

after yet another war, one that you weren't even prepared for, after losing more people, again. after losing tony...

but amidst the chaos of the aftermath of the fight, with screams of joy and shock and grief surrounding you, tears streaming down your face, your eyes met the blue ones you only saw in your son.

he slowly walked towards you as the tears sped up. you didn't even realize when your feet began running towards him.

when his arms wrapped around your waist, you finally felt the home you thought you had come to terms with never feeling again. your arms wrapped around his neck, your face buried in his shoulder as you breathed in the scent of gunmetal that had overtaken him in the battle.

"oh my god," you cried into the leather of his jacket. he lifted you off the ground, your legs wrapping around his waist as you felt his smile on your cheek. "i can't believe you're really here."

"i'm here, doll," his hands cradled your head so tenderly. "i'm not ever leaving again. never."

you pulled back before your eyes widened in realization. "you've gotta meet someone, jamie."

his brows furrowed in confusion, just smiling and nodding along with whatever you said.

within the next few hours, simply being held by bucky before steve stole him away with a hug, you finally brought him home.

"so, steve moved in," you started as you pulled your car into the driveway, turning to see bucky looking at you with an incredulous look. "you'll see why." you reached to hold his hand before he brought yours to his lips, pressing a kiss there.

you told him to wait in the car as you went inside to relieve the babysitter for cyrus. after giving him some cash, he went outside, knocking on your car window to let bucky know he should make his way inside.

upon entering, he saw you sitting on the floor with a little boy with striking blue eyes that seemed so familiar to him. his nose, too. his lips though, they were all yours. he had a slight grin plastered on his lips, one that matched yours to a t.

"daddy?" suddenly, it all clicked.

his heart, his mind, his fucking soul, everything made sense now. the pain, hydra, the mind washing, the torture.

meeting you. falling in love. dying?

his son.

he started walking closer to bucky before the steady walk turned into a run. bucky knelt down, wrapping the boy in his arms, cradling his tiny frame in his arms protectively. his son.

"cyrus james barnes," you said with a teary smile on your face. bucky, without breaking the hug with his son, looked up at you with a smile that matched yours. "cyrus means 'sun', and i thought it was fitting. he brought me so much light and hope after you..." you choked up before he stood up with cy in his arms, walking towards you before wrapping you in the big, family hug.

"i love you so much, both of you."

"but then again this is the guy who’s publically known for loving to eat ass so"

I'm sorry, I thought Nate eating ass was fanon. Are you telling me this is an actual canon fact??

god i love when people don’t realise how much “fanon” around sid and nate is actually canon. it’s like heroin to me. also bc it’s like. 90% of the stuff in fics (which is probably why people assume it’s fanon but. oh boy it’s not. there’s shockingly little fanon around these two, mostly because canon is so abundant).

yes, nathan mackinnon is a known ass-eater. let me direct you to this post, anon. you’re welcome.

other nate (and sid) facts you might not have realised are canon:

nate is a known advocate for therapy. he’s been seeing a sports therapist since 2017

they wear matching clothing all the fucking time, sid has said publicly that he started wearing white sneakers and updated his wardrobe due to nate’s influence (iirc nate might’ve even bought him his first pair of white sneakers? either that or it was a “he told me i need to so i did” situation). they share a tailor. unfortunately i now have to bring your attention to the fact that since they have an alarming amount of matching clothes that they’ve bought for each other, that means that they in fact have to know each other’s clothing sizes off by heart. they also low-key share clothing btw

their families celebrate canada day together and their dads are best friends. in-law behaviour goes crazy

nate did in fact stalk his way into sid’s heart (got the same personal trainer and agent at age 13; built his house next door in 2017; they’ve been spending every day in the summers together since at least 2015. sid cooks for them daily, or at least did pre-pandemic. sid refuses to use nate’s gym tho so they always use sid’s).

nate used to have a fan twitter account more or less where he rooted for the pens. it was active until 2017.

sid and nate regularly go to summer weddings together as each other’s dates. they have done this since, once again, at least 2015

nate has confirmed that he used to have a poster of sid on his wall as a teenager (he didn’t confirm he used to jerk off to it but frankly. i think that’d be saying the quiet part out loud)

when sid won the cup in 2009 and held the parade in cole harbour, nate stood by the side of the road watching it. he was about to turn 14, he was already working with sid’s trainer and agent, and he was about to start attending shattuck (sid’s junior high). due to old pics we also know that this was RIGHT before nate had his first growth spurt and hit puberty. i’m not saying seeing sid with the cup kickstarted nate’s puberty and gave him his first boner but i’m not NOT saying it

nate dated vanessa morgan of riverdale fame in his rookie year. she’s now good friends with elias petersson from the vancouver canucks (this means nothing but i do think it’s a very funny coincidence).

nate schmidt, formerly of the VGK, once failed a drug test (it turned out to be a testing-fuck-up); when nhl players were asked about it natemack iconically said “i don’t think he was sticking a needle up his ass” (i just like this one)

when he was a kid, the one other thing sid wanted to be was a hairdresser. nate, on the other hand, “didn’t have a plan B”

nate is canonically possessive of sid (see: the asg 2024) and sid is canonically delighted by this and into it

they go on so many lunch dates in the summer my dude. they go grocery shopping together. like there’s so many pics of them in grocery stores or out having coffee or weird green shakes

oh i almost forgot, they went on a roadtrip through ireland last year. they’ve been on holiday together multiple times over the years though. done some eurotripping together and stuff. in 2015 they spent three months together, three weeks of which were spent living in sid’s santa monica condo together just the two of them

sid has put up a picture of every stanley cup winning captain in his basement since 2008, when the pens lost in the scf to DET. apparently this serves as motivation for him to win the cup. he notoriously does not watch the playoffs after the pens are out

however, he partied so hard at nate’s cup party he actually closed down the party with his dad. nate is the only non-teammate sid’s ever been seen supporting for a cup run (he’s also never been to his teammates’ cup parties afaik so. there’s that)

also they talked on the phone daily and between periods during nate’s cup run. they also canonically have almost weekly phone dates that can run multiple hours. quote nate “i can’t talk to anyone else the way i can talk to him”

they each have pictures of the two of them together framed in each other’s houses

there’s rumours they’re building adjoining houses on neighbouring properties in cape breton next to a golf course bc apparently being neighbours in halifax isn’t enough or something. this one is as yet unconfirmed by reputable sources though

TOKYO REVENGERS HEAD CANONS

based on what i personally think would be fitting for these characters.

honestly, i didn’t expect it to go this direction, but it centers around the toman gang! ft. takemichi, draken, mikey, peh-yan, angry&smiley, baji, chifuyu and more

TW: suggestive behaviors, swearing, slight spoilers(?)

• while we know our favorite time traveling boi, takemichi, lives in absolute filth and might be super smelly, i really think that he either has smell blindness and thinks that it’s fine and that everyone was just dramatic OR that he actually takes multiple showers a day and has environment blindness to his own mess and doesn’t understand the smell around him

• oddly enough while baji may be easily one of the most feared people in toman, no one would ever guess that the person that baji fears the most is his own mom

• like he promised mama baji that he wasn’t going to fight & that he’d be home so she didn’t have to worry about him when she’s gone off to her night job. and when it turns out he came home to her waiting for him and she sees him covered in dirt and blood? i can totally see him shaking in his boots knowing he disappointed his mom

“Oh hey mom…I thought you were working toni-”

“Cut the bullshit, I called out because I had a hunch you’d be out. I’m going to beat your ass.”

“MOM PLEASE I’M SOR-”

• chifuyu is such a fake tough guy as much as he’s strong and is just as tank-ish as takemichi. this dude is a DWEEB like will pick up on slang, accents, mannerisms of fictional characters from tv shows to manga and it gets to a point where people will get second hand embarrassment for him but no one says anything bc it’s such a reoccurring thing

• idc what anyone says but mikey is super self absorbed. when he was younger, he was asked who he looked up to and this mf said himself and when he was told that he can’t say that? mikey threw a FIT

• draken is such a typical bike person like i think he would genuinely wish to be like tenya iida from my hero academia or iron man

• bc of draken’s love for bikes, emma would literally have so much beef with his bike that she BLAMES anything bad that happened to her on the bike

• like she would honestly personify draken’s bike and convince herself that it was alive

“…Emma, you do know it’s almost midnight. I really need to study for my test tomorrow. Also, you do know it’s just a bike, it can’t hurt you…?”

“No. No, no, no, Hinata! That’s what it wants you to think! I swear I was just minding my business while I was watching Draken mess with his bike and the damned thing moved its wheel and tripped me! It’s alive and it knows what it’s doing and it’s trying to get me to stay from Draken and it ju-…Hello? Did you just hang up on me?”

• mitsuya is so into designing that he smells the different fabrics and talk to them while he worked. like this dude is so down bad that club members or Peh-yan used to see him after club hours whispering sweet nothings and lovingly rub the fabrics on his cheek

• Peh-yan is actually much smarter than he leads people to believe and i would say it’s bc he cause he just respects Pah-chin so much that he doesn’t want him to ever feel bad about being dumb lol

• even though smiley is the eldest, he totally acts like a spoiled younger brat sometimes and angry has to take the responsibilities that should belong to the eldest

• and even though smiley loves his dear twin brother, it doesn’t change the fact he also despises the unruly curly hair both on angry and himself. so when he straightens his own hair and asks his brother to do the same? angry will straight up say no and walk away

• i can totally see smiley throwing a tantrum and calling angry names bc 1) smiley is the older brother and the youngest must always follow what their elders say 2) why can’t angry just see that smiley is just looking out for him? and 3) smiley lowkey just wants to match his little bro but doesn’t want to admit it bc it might make him look lame

“So, you just want me to straighten my hair because I’m going to be more popular? That’s so dumb.”

“C’mon Souya, stop being a fucking wet blanket. You have to do what I say!”

“Dude, you just want me to twin with you.”

“…what? N-no, that not it! Stop being so weird and do it now fuck face!”

“…bro, no. Also you missed the entire back side of your head. You look dumb as fuck right now.”

• yamagishi lowkey looks up to kisaki and is impressed by what this crazy fucker does in the background and doesn’t really fight. trust that yamagishi looks up to kisaki just bc he hates fighting and constantly is getting this ass beat and he’s tired of it

• makoto’s definetely a little freak, it’s canon that he got kicked out of takemichi’s house after his mom found him masturbating, but i like to think this event caused makoto get it together and lock in

• it’s also canon that his favorite spot is under the bed, so i can totally see makoto being super embarrassed after the ordeal and would use that spot to ground himself and that takemitchi would come visit him during this weird time to tell him it was okay and that it’s something he forget it ever happened

• like it’s such funny image bc just image for a month after makoto got caught, this dude would just lay under his bed whenever he could and takemichi would come visit, pushing a plate of food towards the bed, and it just looked like takemichi was making friends with a bed

• bless this man’s heart, but takuya was always mistaken for a girl in his early teens and somehow always carries a damsel in distress aura so both guys and girls always tried to come to his defense

• he was at the mall and some old man is trying to flirt with him? girls come to his aid. at the store and can’t reach something? a taller man will get it for him and tell him “not to stress with such pretty face and to not be embarrassed to ask for help”. walking home with bags of grocery? the older ladies at the park will unapologetically gossip out loud how it was a shame of how “frail of a pretty girl” takuya is and that it was shameful for how a girls’ parents to not be considerate

• even when the mizo middle five first joined, a lot of them would mistaken him as a girl but at least takuya had constant company wherever he went bc toman men were actually very protective of women

• lowkey atsushi would also get the same treatment, not as bad as takuya but the toman men would see him as ‘big sis’ for a while and ask him for advice, especially when it came to self care and more importantly hair care

• i totally see both takuya and atsushi milking the shit out of the weird assumptions just for the hell of it and when draken or mitsuya actually clears up the assumptions at a meeting, the toman men still are protective of takuya and still go to atsushi for ‘big sis’ advice

“Ugh, Takuya do you ever get annoyed with them thinking you’re still a girl? Ever since the meeting, they still come up to me for sister advice but the locker room behavior started. They kinda hit hard.”

“That’s a you problem. I’m just happy to have someone to hang out with me all the time and carry some stuff. ”

“They only do that because they still think you’re a pretty girl.”

“Yeah, key words on “pretty”. Maybe be prettier and you would be treated like a queen.”

“Dude, you’ve really let this get to your head.”

• we definitely do not talk enough about the toman men in general but while i’ve seen lots of posts of toman being chaotic, i feel the opposite. i see the toman men being fairly quiet and are softies

• despite all of that and while they have doubt a lot of the time, they definitely come through to support whatever mikey envisions or what they think he would envision.

• one of the captains or vice captains having lady problems? best believe they will come through to hold a boys night. when Pah-chin got locked up? the toman men definitely schemed to break him out for a long time even when draken out and threatened to beat them up if they don’t stop.

if you’ve made it this far, thank you for reading! this is def my first post so please don’t criticize too much 😭 let me know what you think <3

[chaoticats3]

Just gonna record my reactions to network effect (from chpt 4 onwards) here, spoiler warning

Also this is probably gonna be pretty boring it's just me ranting and making theories as I read. No like, deep analysis or anything like that just my first reaction lol

ITS ART??!?? ART IS THE SHIP ATTACKING THEM?!?! WHAT THE FUCK AND ALSO YOOO ITS ARTI FUCKING LOVE ART BUT ALSO WHAT THE FUCK ART

I dont believe for a second art is evil btw. No way. Not my boy (gn).

What do you mean the ship feels hollow. What do you mean. What do you mean. Where is art? WHERE IS ART?!?

This is graycris isn't it. Has to be. Art has to be fine.

The weapon? OHHH they are here for murderbol.... Definitely graycris.

Wait no? What other weapon.... Maybe they are looking for murderbot but didn't realize the weapon they were looking for is murderbot? That my theory

Are they like. Aliens? Ik that doesn't make sense bc it's literally a sci-fi setting, but maybe they are aliens who have like, recently contacted other people? Outdated lech and odd appearance and talk like they are "other" to humans.

"ART was so much more than a bot pilot" sobbing

DELETED IT OH YOU BITCHES MURDERBOT KICK THEIR ASSES KILL THEM KILL THEM KILL THEM

I refuse to believe art is dead btw. It's just not. Nuh uh. No way.

Ok so the target control system is acting weird. I think art is alive and pretending to be their system after secretly taking it down. Don't know why it didn't just kill them tho...

OH SHIT IM SAYING THIS BEFORE THEY DO BUT THEY ARE NEAR A BLACK HOLE (or a wormhole, whatever) IS TIME DISTORTION GOING TO FUCK WITH THEM. CAUSE THE OTHER TWO PEOPLE AMENA IS WITH MENTIONED THEM BEING THERE LONGER THAN THEY HAVE BEEN. IS THIS GONNA BE THAT ONE FUCKING DOCTOR WHO EPISODE WITH BILLY.

ROSS WTF DUDE.

Oh it was an accident wasn't it. I thought it was and then amena jumped on him so I was like... Was it on purpose?

Oh was it on purpose? Is he going crazy?

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WHAT THE FUCK

IT IS BLACK HOLE BULLSHIT ISNT IT.

I'm so confused.

New theory, it's testing for a new device to control indentured slaves, still confused about what weapon the gray people were asking about.

Murderbot taking over the medical shit so if it goes south Amena won't feel like she has blood on her hands is going to make me cry hold on

"MY FRIEND IS DEAD" I'm actually crying. Like I never cry I'm actually crying. My eyes are wet. My throat hurts. This is not hyperbole

Alien remnants?!??? my alien theory is looking more likely.

HOLY SHIT THE REST OF THE PRESERVATION CREW IS STILL HERE SJNDKSKS MURDERBOT IS NOTTT HAPPY

I KNEW MY BOY ART WASNT DEAD

the password being murderbots feed address is going to make me cry omg art loves it so much

wait so art like, orcastrated, all this just to kidnap murderbot?!? What is going on?!?

ART IS BACKKK

Are the gray people like... People who were an abandoned colony who when through years of idk genetic mutation/ adaptation? Like when a species is split and evolves differently to adapt? Ik that doesn't happen quickly irl but...?

Ok so I think I'm right bc they think the targets were from the abandoned colonies too.

ART not wanting murderbot to act as a controlled security because it knows it dislikes the idea is making my emotional onggg

LMAO ART tattling on murderbot to the humans idndkanfhd

"Ive lost my crew, I don't want to lose you too" dying. On the ground. Dying.

HELL YEAH ITS CREW IS ALIVEEE

" Now here's the code to disable your governor modual" WHAT WHO WHO WAS THIS SENT TOO WAS IT A SECUNIT THAT THE TARGETS HAD?? WHAT??

"Your Peri's Secunit! SJJFKSKDBSJD I LOVE THESE TWO

I love Three and Murderbot 2.0 hell yes

OMG ART THREATENING TO FUCKING BOMB THE PLANET IM DYING LMAOO0

WHAT THE FUCK DID MURDERBOT JUST FIND. IS TARGET CONTROL SYSTEL A FUCKING DEAD HUMAN????

Art being embarrassed Abt how much it cares Abt murderbot and reluctantly telling murderbot Abt it's threat to blow up a fucking planet ainfjsjdksk

Murderbot realizing it's cared for and people put in the effort to go back for it is making me emotional dksdvgss

I love Mensa and Murderbot so much omg

Murderbot being a kind of reluctant big sibling to Three is so sweet. The found family is found familying.

ALSO the "I like being around Art"

AJFSKNDJSNDHRHEJ kicking my feet and giggling I love these two

Final thoughts:I loved it obviously. I loved seeing more of ART and Murderbot bantering. I loved seeing more Mensa and Murderbot. I loved Amenas dynamic. I loved it. I think this one and artificial condition are battling for number one in this series for me. That might just be because I love ART lol. This was a rollercoaster and I loved it. (Ik I'm repeating myself but like, what else can I say lol)

you said you wanted italy top 5 but you do realize this is not happening right? 💀 he's very low ranked in every single chart I've seen and not to be mean but he's got the weird look. not in a funny meme way but in the ugly weird way. he's just objectively pretty ugly and also personality wise he doesn't seem normal or charismatic this is the off vibes he gives to many people sorry .

This might just be one of my first asks ever (not counting the ones for humanitarian help) and the fact that it is about Lucio Corsi hate is CRAZYYYYY. First of I said I would like him to be on the top five but because he deserves it, the boy has worked his ass off for 10 years, has brought forward a beautiful italian song about what it feels like to not always be the tough guy people want him to be and so far everything he puts in his performances is so original.

Now I have followed Eurovision long enough to know that the songs that are higher voted are often the catchy ones that immediately grab the publics attention with killer vocals/funky costume/performances but if Amair pelos dois by Salvador Sobral managed to win in 2017 with a very minimalist performance and a sincere test, I don't see why Lucio can't have a chance at a top ten with his song and a good stage performance.

As for the fact you find him ugly I cant say much, personally he reminds me of a wood dryad/elf but it's just personal taste I guess. I really don't think the beauty aspect will play much of a role as he will probably put on his stage makeup and Eurovision audiences usually love stage makeup on male performers despite of their beauty/lack of.

I disagree with the fact that he gives off vibes, he managed to make an entire country that didn't know him go from who is this guy -> Lucio I will go to war for you if you demand, in five nights. Personally if I saw a contestant in Eurovision whose language I don't speak and whose content I have never consumed, pull out a harmonica and bust out with a Bob Dylan moment in the middle of an interview bc he doesn't know how to answer a question, that guy would be an icon for me.

Again for me my wish would be for this funky little dude to be in the top five bc he deserves it but above all bc I think it would bring him the recognition he deserves (meaning maybe more concerts in Italy) while also not taking him away from us like what happened with Maneskin. However if I do see him get a low score it would ascertain only what I already know of Eurovision: a politically run-Israhell supporting shit show that rarely makes beloved artist, songs or performances win but that it does provide some window for more opportunities and bigger exposure for artists.

Hello hello. I just recently stumbled across your blog and in celebration of the 1.6 update (and also just outta pure curiosity), I wanna ask about the SDV bachelors reactions to a farmer who's ace/uncomfortable with intercourse but still wishes to pursue a loving relationship with them. If this ask isn't up your alley, feel free to disregard it. Hope you have a good day ✌️

A/N: hiiiiiiiii!! Obligatory I am not a part of this community(I am cishet lmao) so I am just going to have to try my best!! I am not ace or aro or anything but like never feel bad for sending an ask like this!! By the time you see this it’ll probably be like next week or something bc I do take little writing breaks so it isn’t absolute trash but I hope when you see this you enjoy it!!

Tw:mentions of sex, some cursing maybe,

Bc: idk at least 5 or 6 for each bachelor

Stardew Masterlist

Sebastian

Is this a joke?

No? Okay.

Would be disappointed at first because let’s face it dude is constantly horny

But would get over it rather quickly like just because you don’t wanna have sex doesn’t mean he can’t run one out

And now that you’re dating it’s easier than ever to do that because he finds you so attractive.

So not really all that disappointing when he thinks about it, really

Sam

Dude for real? Like ever? I mean I guess that’s okay

Sex isn’t the top thing on his list so it’s fine

Like yeah he would like to have it but it’s whatever

Would rather give up skateboarding and music than give you up so not having sex is easier than that by a long shot

Can he still get kisses tho??? That’s all he’s really worried about

Shane

I think the least affected and disappointed out of the bachelors

He has more things to worry about than having sex

It’s not that he isn’t attracted to you

It’s that you loves you for you and sex is the last thing on his mind when he’s thinking about bettering himself and taking care of Jas and his chickens the list goes on

Would actually be so chill when you have this conversation like “yeah okay, that’s fine.” And would never make you feel bad about it because he honestly doesn’t mind

Elliott

Tries not to react on the outside.

I think before you two start getting hot and heavy it probably wouldn’t have come up

Because I think Elliott would want to be a gentleman and not bring it up until you do

And during a particularly heated makeout session he tries to take it further to test the waters when you stop him in his tracks

And he’s like oh…okay!

He’s good with whatever you give him

Sometimes he’s disappointed when he gets the urge but gets over it very quickly because he obviously knows how to handle those feelings himself.

Alex

“Like…at all?”

Would be high key disappointed because dude likes to fuck tbh

BUT at the same time you aren’t just some random whose pants he’s trying to get in

You’re quite literally the love of his life (if anyone asks him he will never say he believes this because he’s scared of rejection)

So it takes a minute but he accepts this with literally a “welp back to using my hand” mentality

Like when he thinks about it, sex is literally the least important aspect of your relationship, he fell for you because of who you are not because he just wants to fuck.

Harvey

I think he wouldn’t really be disappointed but like dang y’know?

Like he doesn’t care that much about sex to really be disappointed

But does enjoy the act of sex, especially with a person he’s connected to like you two are

So it’s not as far as disappointment but is still like oof okay.

Out of all the bachelors understands the lbgtq+ community better than the others so isn’t really all that surprised when you talk to him about it.

He knows what it is and doesn’t mind, you don’t have to explain yourself, you’re valid how you are he doesn’t mind and he won’t and doesn’t want to force you to do anything.

BLOOMING BULLETS LORE🏜️🌸

The Plot:

I move to Paradise, Arizona to start over my life. I work at a basic office job and sell my etsy stuff/some form of side hustling and I ended up finding my own apartment after 2 weeks of living in my car. I first stumble upon the Postal Dude shooting up the street and urinating on someone’s windshield. I panic, get my tank top caught on a stop sign and rip my shirt running bra out down the street. That was just the first meeting. After that was a few bump ins of small talk. He’s very weirded out that I’m not vapid or hostile but takes interest and we become good friends.

We do stay close for a while in the few months and there’s pining but we can’t do anything because I respect that he’s married despite being sad he comes home to… the old slag…But then the nuke drops and we don’t see each other again until years later. I’m all Jane Rambo’d out at this point in the apocalypse and we catch up killing zombies together. After finding out he’s technically divorced with the cheating on Mad Cow Mike J thing, it’s official that he is single and we decide to test the waters

The final battle arrives where I hold off Mike J in combat while he fights his hateful ex wife and in the end we drive off into the sunset with Champ starting a new life wherever it takes us.

General Headcanons:

A back and forth flow of what I call the Spongebob and the Squidward Dynamic. Sometimes Dude presses my buttons and I get playfully miffed. Sometimes he rolls his eyes at my goofy shenanigans. And then sometimes we just become idiots together in love. Often caused by trespassing and yet again me bailing Dude out of trouble.

Ragebaiting is another love language of his. So he will purposely piss me off bc he thinks it’s fun to see me get angry. It amuses him and it’s all in good fun. He moves things when I’m not looking and pretends he has no idea what I’m talking about for example. And another is the banter he adores so much.

🌸OMG STOP TALKING ABOUT BREASTS!

🏜️You know what? You’re right. Let’s talk about balls.

🌸NONONONOWAIT-

🏜️’Cause I’m a man of equality. And that means nuts

🌸SHSHHSHSHHSHS STOPSTOPSTOAAUAGGH

🏜️Biiiig ol’ golf balls swangin-

🌸*Spazzes out in overstimmed frustration and laughter*

🏜️Woah! And they call ME the lunatic? I don’t know, Maddie. I think we oughta keep the hospital on speed dial for you.

We have very identical music taste and our taste in media is mostly similar with a few more lighthearted leaning on my end. I got him to enjoy cartoons more though haha

His biggest love language is clearly acts of service. I am not used to this at all always being the one serving as second nature. So to have him do that for me is… kind of life changing. Even the little things like buying me a little surprise toy for my collection bags or helping around the house (without grumbling??? Huh???) means a lot to me. Sure he has his days, but if he’s going to have someone actually be entrusted in his extremely low social circle, he will give that person his all

Dude is not overbearing but he does get secretly anxious and will slit a throat or glare hard at the townspeople. He knows about my past which earns his respect but also has him leery of anyone giving me a problem

I do my best to be there for him when his psychotic symptoms act up. The least I can do is stand by him and keep an ear out to let him know there is nothing there but me and Champ. Distracting him in those moments are the most helpful things to do.

TOUCH STARVED AF THE MAN ALONE VALUES IT MORE THAN ANYTHING!!! At first he was all “Seriously? You wanna do this?” And lazily drape his arm over my shoulder but within no time he gets pissed off if I don’t get home soon enough for cuddles

I heavily encourage him to try to find work bc I want him to be a free bird and keep his independence despite me. So he finds odd jobs. But otherwise, if work is scarce, he’s the house husband. And he does bust his ass most of the time (he gets some days of snoozin though)

He knows about my rough as hell backstory and he respects me for it. It is a shock that I somehow retained my sunshine personality by burying all my anger and disgust to the point of it becomes its own caged monster. But despite it all, he knows I’m human. And he’s relieved he can actually be himself and speak up whatever he can because of it. He may not be good with words, but he acts to help me feel better. And while words are nice action to show he cares means a million times more to me

Our first date was a simple lying in the Arizona desert on the hood of his car. It was memorable and very special. It was in that moment he realized I was his answered prayer. All those years he prayed to get out and be somewhere happy, to know what real warm love felt like… it was worth the wait.

We elope with him stealing a wedding ring off a dead chick that I don’t know about and honeymoon in Germany/Austria where he gets drunk off beer and go off the shitz half the time. How he obtained my engagement ring was funny. He was waiting in line at the dry cleaners and saw it there at the desk lady

🏜️“You know… That’s a really pretty ring you got there.”

“Aww, thank you! My husband knows me so well. It’s to die for!”

🏜️“*slowly raises his axe* You don’t say.”

Dude has a photo of me mid-laugh on the floor with Champ. It’s treasured and he always gets his wallet stolen so he keeps it in his trench coat instead so he won’t ever lose it. If he did, then he’s go postal for sure. There is also a secret stash in the trailer of Postal Babe pin ups from me but we don’t talk about that much

[sillyyuserr]

okay so idk if this is a good or likely thought and i legit got into terukane a few days ago so i might not have a super good grasp in their dynamic, but i started brainstorming and got this idea that some of the way teru treats akane (bothering akane by being all authoritative, controlling, manipulative, even w a playful demeanor, that kinda stuff) is bc that’s his best and safest attempt at trying to connect w him.

akane isn’t only wrapped up in the supernatural—which is meant to be teru’s sworn enemy—but he also sees past the careful demeanor teru has built around himself, treating him like a human being, and will even challenge him. and that’s both absolutely terrifying and relieving for someone like teru.

ngl, i might be overthinking it, but the way teru treats akane reminds me of the way some emotionally repressed ppl (esp kids/teenagers) treat their crush 💀

- as i stated before, using certain manipulative & controlling behaviors in order to connect, but also more specifically:

- purposefully getting a rise out of him just to see his reactions bc they’re endearing & bc he doesn’t rly know how else to get his attention w/o feeling too vulnerable or afraid

- enjoys akane’s presence without making himself vulnerable so he can disguise his own genuine affection and (possibly romantic) interest as just “messing w akane for fun” or smth. that way, he stays in control of himself, akane, the entire situation itself, his image, etc.

- seems almost straight-up fixated on akane but like i said, disguises it by pretending it’s less than that through little jabs and tests

- seems jealous of/bothered by akane’s crush on aoi in multiple scenes, but also doesn’t seem to have a crush on aoi, either… kinda suspicious 😭

- and imo one of the biggest things… when aoi gets trapped and seemingly guilty explains to akane that he was aware that would happen, he looks like he 1) tries to stop akane and/or help him up my grabbing his wrist, and when that doesn’t work, 2) shoves him into the ground or wtv to stop him for good. “for his own good”— that seems to be teru’s biggest motivator for the ppl he loves: manipulation or smth similar for the sake of their safety, no matter what. not to mention, teru just looks kinda sad, empty and guilty the whole time???

- and don’t even get me started on that vague comment abt liking “akane-san” w/o specifying, which makes it feel purposefully ambiguous

ofc none of this has to mean anything at all canonically but i’m super into complex and ambiguous characters who try to use control and manipulation as connection and affection + i swear you’ve dragged me into this ship and now i’m stuck thinking abt one-sided terukane lmao /pos

OMG I LOVED THIS

I do have to correct you on something tho: teru (in the original world) strictly refers to aoi (girl) by her surname, he does not call her akane-chan, he calls her ‘akane-san’, which is not purposefully ambiguous, but rather a respect thing. Off the bat he is established as a very respectful guy, so this makes sense for him to do.

You’ve also opened my eyes, when i first read this i had like an epiphany because i had never thought about it that way. All this thinking and it never once crossed my mind. If you look back on everything teru’s done with this context in your head, it seems to fit PERFECTLY. He DOES seem to be doing all of it, in a way, to connect. Either they’re in love, or AidaIro are terrible writers.

i think his weird thing with aoi, constantly teasing her n stuff, joking about ‘i’ll steal ur girl’ typeshit with akane is out of interest. Not interest in aoi, but interest in their relationship. To me, teru’s always been the observant type. That much was made obvious.

i mean look dude idk what to tell u

(context is him looking down at aoi and akane holding hands)

I think the reason he really tries to insert himself into their relationship and does all that ‘help me make this🥺🍬’ at the convenience store with aoi, is because he wants to have that for himself. I mean the loom in his eyes just screams yearning. Whether it’s the relationship aoi has with akane is what he wants, or to be in her place in that relationship, we don’t know, but what we DO know, is there’s still hope xx

(sorry i didn’t touch on more aspects of your writing, i don’t think i even could, what a perfect way to say things)

bllk boys as american high school stereotypes ˏˋ°•*⁀➷

notes— bc i miss being a senior in high school watching bllk every saturday while working on college apps :(

ft. yoichi isagi, seishiro nagi, meguru bachira, reo mikage

warnings: none :)

yoichi isagi - the accomplished nerd

you cannot tell me this kid wouldn’t at least be ranked top 6% or smth

like he would definitely have his whole high school life and college career planned out using his meta vision or whatever

he would “devour” all of his tests, quizzes, concept checks, etc.

and not to mention that he plays soccer

i know for a fact dude would milk the soccer thing for all it’s worth on his college apps

like in every other sentence on his college essay he would be talking about his soccer trauma lmao

he would also be a part of so many other clubs just to have a stacked resumé

i feel like he would study a lot too like just because he wants to do well in school in general

he’s one of those nerds that’s not necessarily popular but everyone knows him because people talk about his grades and his rank and they look up to him and stuff

was definitely cancelled for a bit for calling one of his classmates a slur after getting a bad grade on a group project…

seishiro nagi - the “invisible” kid

he’s not actually invisible he just never shows up to class lmao

he shows up occasionally to get the bare minimum of school hours so he can graduate, and also shows up for test days because making up work is a pain

he usually just sits in the back of class and is either sleeping or blatantly playing on his phone but the teachers never say anything because they lowkey forget he exists

but somehow he still has perfect grades??

he doesn’t think he has a lot of friends because he thinks it’s too much energy to keep up with a social life

and yet he’s still pretty popular and was somehow dragged into a huge friend group without even trying

a lot of girls have hallway crushes on him and try to flirt with him but he doesn’t even notice

and if he does he just pretends he doesn’t.

he couldn’t care less about school and just goes because he has to and internally complains about wanting to go home the entire day

meguru bachira - the weird kid

i’m sorry i love bachira but he’d definitely be that one kid people laugh at in the hallways

not necessarily in a “he gets bullied” way but just like, he’s weird and he knows it, everyone else knows it, and he’s genuinely funny

he’s like the weird kid that everyone’s friends with if ykwim

but it’s also kind of sad because he has no real friends

his grades are good enough i suppose; he doesn’t really try but he’ll get into a pretty decent college so he’s fine

doesn’t take school all that seriously

definitely the class joker

and is the subject of teacher gossip pretty much everyday because they find him incredibly tiring to deal with

other kids have seen him talking to himself in the hallways so they’re kind of creeped out by him

he’s completely aware that people talk about him behind his back but he doesn’t really care because he like being able to make people laugh

reo mikage - the rich kid

this one is obvious lol

he’s always wearing luxury brand names to school like it’s nothing

like catch this man in the hallway in gucci shoes, a louis vuitton jacket, prada sunglasses, and spraying his chanel perfume everywhere because the hallway smells like shit

people become friends with him just in the hopes that he’ll buy them super bougie stuff for their birthdays or whenever

he’s literally a nepo baby so he doesn’t even have to do well in school to get into a good college

has girls falling for him left and right but he knows it’s just because he happens to be wealthy and genetically fortunate

definitely would be a popular kid that gets along well with everyone

he’s really modest about his wealth but also not modest at all at the same time

the teachers try to suck up to him because they’re adamant that he’s going to be successful in the future (and he probably will)

blows money on his friends every time they hang out and throws the best parties with expensive ass alcohol

stanford pines & npd

i have been thinking about this for a WHILE so figured i should finally make a post about it. obligatory i am not a doctor i’m just yapping, if any of the info/wording here is wrong lmk :)

i don’t have a problem with “ford has npd” headcanons, a lot of the reasons people give are completely valid and i think it has a lot of potential in adding depth to his character, but there’s also a lot of times i see it and it seems like the op just doesn’t understand ford as a character and/or npd. so !! here’s a couple of counterpoints/things to consider :D

a lot of his social issues (especially his struggles with empathy & difficulty connecting to people who are different from him) can easily be attributed to autism. like the dude definitely has an ego problem but that’s not the only thing to him, he’s a Person. not every problem he has with other people is because he just thinks he’s Better Than Them - he does genuinely have issues connecting with others, and his personality can make it seem like he just doesn’t care. there seems to be this issue online/in fandom of needing people to be complete social butterflies, the perfect image of nail-biting, hand-wringing social anxiety, or shut-in misanthropes, but people & their relationships are more complicated than that. ford doesn’t fit into any of those categories - he’s neither super sociable nor anxious, but that doesn’t by default mean his isolation from others is wanted or comes from a place of superiority. he just has trouble bonding with people outside of shared interests, which is really common in autism. the entire dd&md episode is ford going completely overboard with this ttrpg because he’s “gone a while without a friend,” which just ,, doesn’t fit with someone that Doesn’t Care. dd&md doesn’t have anything to do with his work, he’s not testing dipper to make sure he’s worthy of his company or whatever, he’s just having fun with someone who likes the same things as him - that’s the only way he really knows to spend time with people. that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love mabel or stan, and it doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to bond or connect with them, and it doesn’t mean he thinks he’s above them - he just doesn’t know how to express that. every day i wake up and i think about how ford wanted stan to play dd&md with them and i cry

(as a side note bc i think this needs more explanation here - no, i genuinely don’t think ford, deep down, thinks he’s better than stan. stan has a lot of good qualities and i’m sure ford is aware of that *cough cough his ability to bond with the kids cough cough*, they just have a really strained relationship. it’s not just ford being mad at stan, either - stan has his own reasons for being upset with ford. between the 40 years worth of tension and them Being Siblings i think it’s really easy to take ford’s attitude towards him as a superiority thing when imo it’s closer to having 2 five year olds in the backseat of a car going “HE TOUCHED ME !!” “HE TOUCHED ME FIRST !!!” “NUH-UH !!!!” lol)

autism aside, that previous part has a lot of mentions of ford having an “ego problem” or “superiority complex” etc etc, which are usually some pretty big points people bring up with him having npd - but npd is a lot more complicated than that. this is where the “i’m not a doctor” disclaimer becomes really important - this is based on my own very limited understanding of npd, so take it with a grain of salt lol. that being said i’m not gonna talk abt actual npd too much for obvious reasons, but i do have one thing to point out, that being the core/root issue/whatever else u wanna call it of npd. from what i understand, people with npd have very low self-worth, and their behaviors come from a place of wanting others’ attention and approval as a stand-in or replacement of their own self image. this ,, isn’t something i think ford has a problem with. i don’t think his confidence in himself or his abilities is a facade (which is ok!! he’s made mistakes, sure, but the dude has done a lot of genuinely impressive things in his life), and - this might sound a little crazy but hear me out - i don’t think he actually cares that much about what others think of him. yeah, there’s all that stuff in journal 3 about him wanting to be the next Big Scientist or whatever, but i honestly think that was his father’s dream, not his. i’ve talked about this before, but filbrick having a preference for ford doesn’t mean he was suddenly a present and caring father towards him - both of the stans desperately wanted him to love them. a lot of people point to stan’s decisions in his 20s-30s - his scams, his criminal record, etc - as a manifestation of that desperation (“don’t come back until you’ve made us a fortune” or whatever), which is a point i think is completely valid. to add to that, though, the journals were written around the same time period, and i think ford’s aspirations of becoming a world-renowned scientist are his own version of that. filbrick wanted stan to make money, so that’s what stan wanted, too. filbrick wanted ford to be some super successful science guy (so he could make money), so that’s what ford wanted, too. by the time of the series ford doesn’t really seem to care that much - sure, he wants the kids to like him and whatnot, but that’s normal. outside of that he’s this total hermit who seems pretty content to just hang out in the basement and do his own thing lol

a smaller little note to close this on, a disturbing amount of npd hcs seem to come from people who just ,, don’t like ford. which is fine, you don’t have to like him or anything, but maybe don’t drag an irl condition into it? like i said npd is a lot more complicated than just being mean and thinking ur better than everyone else. its fine if u see those traits in ford, i can’t get inside ur head and rewire ur brain to like him lol, but maybe consider just phrasing it as “he’s mean” instead of “he’s a narcissist”? idk, it just kinda rubs me the wrong way when people like. diagnose him with npd and then use that as their “therefore he is Bad and i Don’t Like Him” point lol

alright that’s it i think drink water or whatever my head hurts and i hate writing outros so i simply Will Not

[geminiwritten]

OOOOOH okay cause you asked... here's a lil sneak peak at the ideas i have *mentally* in the works (yet to start writing, but i know whats coming)...

first, joaquin torres fic bc danny ramirez owns my ass rn (it's like best friends to lovers, pure fun fluff, bit of jealousy, lots of tension)

then... hopefully bradley??? i have this ridiculously fun idea where he's just trying everything in his power to keep her around (i don't want to go into details cause i don't want to ruin it but it's so fun)

THEN jake again (it could be mixed up, let's be real, i write what i feel) but they knew each other before, maybe dated, i'm thinking like a family friends kind of deal where he took her out just to be nice or cause his parents said but he was a bit of an asshole and kind of unintentionally broke her heart BUT THEN she rocks up years later, hot as and he's like... dumbstruck... chaos ensues...

i'm also working on a bob fic idea, because i like to have options when i write! depends on the boy currently living in my head...

anyways apologies for the rant but yeah!!! 🖤🖤🖤

An Observer

Dude it's so over the hyperfixation is overtaking me. Some rambling about how I draw him under the cut bc I can't ever JUST post some art.

First of all I am a hypocrite. So the reason he has top surgery scars is bc I think Aaron being a trans man kicks SO much ass (and I'm eyeing Laurence. Don't test me. I think the themes could go kinda hard. That would be for narrative purposes, which Aaron being trans isn't really.) but the reason he looks kinda older is bc in canon this guy GOT MARRIED AND HAD A CHILD before the events of the show take place and THEN goes through everything with Aphmau so in my brain he's GOTTA look KINDA older. I would accept like, 25 at the youngest, but either way, inheriting a lordship and have your wife + the whole population of your town be fridged WOULD I think put enough stress on you to make you look a bit older. (I'm aware that him being trans could make the process of having his OG kid a bit complicated but I think if amulets exist that make children out of blood, we can look past it and just say that there was pressure to produce an heir just in case something happened).

I also just think he should have a BIT of a goatee. That's because I'm right.

I wanted to draw him Watching from afar because of how much of that he does in the show, and then his expression just sorta started to be angry, and I started to sort of kick around ideas in my head of what he could be watching. Is he seeing Zane come in to officiate that wedding? Is he watching Laurence or Garroth make advances on Aphmau? I'm unsure. I'd love to write something about it but I've gotta work on getting the plot and characters of the OG show nailed down before I start making fic.

I was also thinking and, depending on what I end up doing with Aaron as a character in my rewrite, I might take out the detail of the wife and kid from his past. I guess just because "dead wife and child" feels... almost overdone. I worry about moving around children in the story though, because of how much kids factor in here. I feel like I'd lean towards maybe Aaron having taken someone in-- the wiki says his family dies and he gains lordship at age 17. Maybe he has a SIGNIFICANTLY younger sibling, or a village child that had nowhere else to go, that he's trying his best to raise alongside his new responsibilities. And maybe his ENTIRE village doesn't die at once, maybe Zane makes something big and awful and the village just... falls apart in the wake of the tragedy, leaving Aaron with nothing to rule as the survivors just... move away, one by one. I think whoever Aaron took in would probably definitely have to get killed in the incident, otherwise he'd have 0 reason to have fucked off on a revenge quest.

Anyways. That devolved. If you're actually reading this, hey thanks! I appreciate it.

Nomy!!! Love love love the intermission!!! Getting to see Lewis confront life outside of the race schedule was a really great change of pace, especially after the narrative pressure of Silverstone.

Charles being a petulant brat and then instantly folding bc he can tell he’s about to fumble the chance to hang out with Lewis and ride shot gun on his insanely cool and packed life 🙂‍↕️

Lewis nesting!!! Lewis PURRING!!! LEWIS THINKING OF SEB AS HIS ALPHA!!!

I absolutely adored the nest scene. Lewis feeling competitive over his nesting skills is actually so spot on and I’m insanely jealous of how cozy his blanket sounds.

Huge props to you for writing a Jimmy Fallon dialogue. That dudes speech pattern is my kryptonite ur literally so brave. Also love confident Lewis calling his shot for the season. Huge escapism from how mid Ferrari is irl rn.

Sloppy Charles my beloved 🫶. Love Lewis getting to flex his flirting muscles a bit. (In my head he was making eyes exactly like that one gif of him talking to will buxton? I think, where he pulls up the collar of his coat and like snuggles into it a bit. You know the one. Baby girl) Charles being a slutty drunk bc he’s trying to get over being down bad for Max Verstappen… he truly contains multitudes.

The failed seduction scene was so so so enthralling. Lewis continuously noting how beautiful Charles is and knowing himself enough to be temped but also holding firm in not letting it go further. Charles being so heartbreakingly desperate for something that is just his completely. 1644 really are everything to each other in this fic. Or like…they could be? They are becoming fast confidants, but also they are going to have to confront the conflict of being each others biggest competition soon and the push and pull of trying to keep apart so it will hurt less to tear each other apart on the track, but the natural inclination to want to hold each other together off the track!!! Doomed by the narrative not in a fatal way, just a deeply painful one.

Finally, the last scene with the heart to heart between Charles and Lewis!!! Loved the banter, but I was absolutely floored by Lewis just laying his feelings for Seb all out on the table in the hopes of giving Charles an example to hold his situation up against. Lewis being like “Max isn’t shit, Seb sets the bar and ur Redbull golden boy knockoff doesn’t hold a candle to the original.” 🙂‍↕️

I know it won’t fit the story, but Charles questioning his perception of Max from Lewis’ prompting and by using Seb as a litmus test for a respectful alpha just lit up the 051644 lights in my brain. Bc Charles would be intimately aware of just how good Seb is from when they were teammates, and clearly there is…something between him and Lewis… and Seb himself admitted he doesn’t have a ton going on in his life so… really how much more work could two boyfriends be vs one…

Thank you so much for all the love. I was really glad to take a moment outside of racing. I thought with how relentless the pace has been, this was a good moment to slow it down a bit, and really get to see Lewis in a different environment.

Charles is so fun. Writing him into Lewis’ life, portraying his tiny bits of envy over it, and then to slot his way in is just so lovely. Like he knows things, he can offer advice to this insanely cool person too. He just wants Lewis to know that. And of course, he’s so pleased that Lewis is purring with him, nesting with him. But, then it’s also a huge distraction from his own mess of a life. Like being down bad for fucking Verstappen is ridiculous. Like, he knows that, and yet. I always intended for Charles. and Lewis to have this moment. Like, Lewis isn’t blind. Charles is gorgeous and he wouldn’t be the first omega that Lewis has fucked, but also, he just knows that’s not what either of them needs. I think they’re attracted to one another,  but I think their love for one another is not connected to that sexual attraction.

And God I love that last scene. I think a lot of readers thought that Lewis was just being willfully blind about his feelings for Seb and like…no. From the beginning, I’ve been dropping hints that Lewis has feelings for Seb. Like the problem is that Lewis doesn’t know how to act on them, without feeling like he’s giving something up. Big difference. It’s about Lewis coming to terms with the fact that no one has asked him to give anything UP. There’s no sacrifice being asked of him. There’s an exchange of love that is being sought after. But, he’ll get there.

And thank you for picking up what I’ve been putting down about the Seb/Max parallels. Next chapter, it’ll be even more explicit.

P.S. Thank you for acknowledging my Jimmy Fallon dialogue. I was listening to so many clips, the way that dude speaks is horrific to write out, but I wanted to be accurate.
