@steddiemas Day 19: Steddie as Dads (Trope Tuesday)

wc: 1.4k | Rated: T for suggestive language and flirtatious banter | cw: Eddie is trans in my Joanie Munson AU and gave birth to Joanie. This fic contains one mention of pregnancy and the possibility of having a baby.

Tags: Steddie Dads, Trans Eddie Munson, Growing Family, Getting Interrupted, Christmas Night, Christmas Presents, Kid Fic

Note: I knew Joanie's Furby would have to make a reappearance after I wrote THIS drabble for Black Friday. Also, I started drafting this fic for Day 3 (Needing to be Quiet) but it ran away from me so it has aspects of that prompt too.

Christmas Night, 1998

“Okay…” Eddie sing-songs, stirring Steve from his very sleepy post-Christmas state on the couch, “Our precious bean is asleep… The old man is in a food-induced coma…”

He skips to the couch and flops down, mussing their makeshift bedding.

“Huh?” Steve mumbles, looking up to find a mischievous grin painted across his partner’s face.

He should have known Eddie was up to something with their sleeping arrangements. He had insisted they spend Christmas Night on Wayne’s couch, giving up the bed in Eddie’s old room to Joanie for the evening.

As Eddie continues grinning like an idiot – and adds a wiggling, suggestive brow for good measure – Steve attempts to smooth out their blankets. He shimmies upright, yawning as he yanks at the corner of the blanket trapped beneath Eddie’s ass.

“Nope!” Eddie says, chopping his hand through the air, “No yawning, sugarplum.”

He dives for the remote teetering on the edge of the coffee table and points it at the television, reducing It’s a Wonderful Life to a quickly fading speck in the middle of the screen.

“Jimmy Stewart, off!” he declares, voice high and nasally in mock impersonation as he tosses the remote to the side.

With the living room lit only by the lights of Wayne’s Christmas tree (decorated the moment they arrived with Joanie), Steve feels his eyes droop.

He scrubs a hand down his tired face, his unstyled hair flopping forward as he does so. Eddie is soon on him, combing it back before picking at individual strands like a monkey looking for fleas.

“How are you not tired?” Steve whines, dipping his head to avoid more prodding.

But Eddie then reaches to remove his glasses.

“Christmas adrenaline, sweetheart,” he explains, carefully folding the glasses and setting them on the coffee table within reach.

Eddie leans back again, elbow propped on the couch, his chin resting against his hand enough that it squishes up his cheek.

“The Furby was a hit,” he continues, his teasing dimples out on full display now.

“Please don’t talk about it,” Steve grumbles, sinking into the couch at the thought of Joanie’s newest toy, now out of the box and operational, ready to wreak havoc.

He can only imagine the reaction the cats will have to those soulless eyes when they get the retched thing back home…

“It’s cute,” Eddie shrugs, not at all innocently picking at the bottom hem of Steve’s flannel button-up, a Munson family relic turned pyjama top.

“It looks like a Gremlin,” he deadpans, “Ready to chew our faces off with that weird robot beak.”

He hopes his frown will also remind Eddie that if said demon-spawn does rise up against them, he can be the one fully responsible for dealing with it. And, now that he thinks about it, Steve is sure Eddie allowing their daughter to watch Gremlins at Halloween surely contributed to her desire to obtain this year’s latest kids' craze.

As they glare at each other, Steve holds onto some hope that Eddie (might) think back to that sleepless Halloween night when Joanie woke up at 2 am in tears and thought Ozzy’s prowling in the shadows was an evil after-midnight Mowgai.

“And where is it now?” Steve asks, breaking their seated stand-off.

“Tucked under the covers with our precious Joanie-Bear,” Eddie says, dramatically closing his eyes with a chirpy hum.

Again – Gremlin!

Steve bites his tongue as Eddie opens his eyes again, those big brown orbs now glowing with mirth like a warmer, more cherubic (but equally devilish) version of their five-year-old’s prized Christmas present.

Eddie clicks his tongue, looking everywhere but directly at Steve as he fidgets with a handful of blankets, entirely conspicuous as he buzzes with clear anticipation.

Steve puffs out a laugh and shakes his head. As always, Eddie has other plans for their ‘quiet’ night in…

“What?” Eddie asks, catching him staring.

He tilts his head to the side like a curious puppy.

“I love you,” Steve replies, leaning into his side.

He looks at the Christmas tree as Eddie presses a featherlight kiss to his forehead.

But the sweet moment only lasts for a split second because, in a flash, Eddie flips back their bedding, the blanket half falling to the floor between the couch and the coffee table.

“Good,” he grins, swinging his leg over Steve’s lap to straddle him, bracketing his legs, “Put a baby in me.”

“Ed!” Steve splutters, frowning as Eddie claps a hand over his mouth to shush him.

“Quiet!” he stage-whispers.

“You be quiet,” Steve warns, smiling into his palm.

“Made you perk up, didn’t it?” Eddie teases, leaning back to look him over and they both giggle away, “Anyway, come on, tick-tick. Christmas miracle, all that shit...”

He hurriedly jabs into his shoulder.

“Need I remind you we are in your uncle’s living room?”

“We’ve done worse,” Eddie offers, raking his eyes over him, “Remember Thanksgiving 1989 when – ”

“ – We boned in Claudia’s powder room,” he finishes, nodding.

Eddie looks off into the distance – or perhaps just right behind them to the wood panelling. He sighs, all wistful and longing.

“Yeah,” he hums, “And you knocked Claudia’s good handtowel straight off the rack and into the toilet…”

Steve leans back and cocks his chin. Well, if Eddie isn’t going to be subtle about it, either...

“Take your pants off, baby.”

Eddie beams and gives a two-finger salute. He quickly begins shuffling about, lifting onto his knees so he can hook his fingers under the waistband of his black sweatpants and pull them down. Meanwhile, Steve lifts their blanket up and out to protect Eddie’s modesty.

Or, at least that’s what he intends to do. Eddie only gets his pants down to his knees when Steve catches Wayne’s bedroom door opening.

Eddie notices too and yelps, plopping back down onto Steve’s lap – hard.

“Don’t mind me,” Wayne says, walking along with the stiff gait of a man with a bad hip (one that he still won’t do a thing about), “Just goin’ to take a leak. My bladder isn’t what it used to be. The older you get, the weaker your bladder...”

“Can you please stop saying the word ‘bladder’!” Eddie squawks over his shoulder, but his uncle simply waves him away.

“I didn’t see nothin’!” Wayne grumbles, “Carry on.”

Eddie rolls his eyes as they both watch in awkward silence as Wayne disappears into the bathroom, a light soon cascading from it.

“Christmas sucks!” Eddie dry-sobs, resting his chin on Steve’s shoulder with a disgruntled ‘hmph’.

“Just wait a minute,” he whispers, wrapping the blanket tight around Eddie’s partial nakedness.

Steve moves to give him a reassuring kiss but Eddie gasps, stilling on his lap as his eyes grow wide as saucers.

“What the fuck was that?” he gulps, his voice at full volume.

Eddie jolts again, his hands flying up to grip Steve’s shoulders tight, giving him no choice but to hold onto for dear life – even if he has no clue what’s got him so rattled…

“I can’t hear anything,” Steve says, looking around as his heart quickens.

Eddie scoffs and claws at a lock of his hair, just behind his right ear.

“God damn it, Stevie!” he spits, his head on a swivel as he whips it from side to side, likely looking for Steve’s abandoned hearing aids.

Steve is about to point to the end of the coffee table and thus ignite a squabbling match about it when Wayne reappears from the bathroom.

“What in the heck is that sound?” he grumbles.

“What is it?” Steve demands, looking between the other two.

“Some…” Wayne says, tilting his head in search of the sound, “Machine…”

Steve moves his head about to dodge Eddie as he squirms around in his lap, muttering what he can only assume is a string of expletives as he attempts to search for the noise too without straining his back or exposing himself.

“Damn it, Eddie,” Steve snaps, lifting his partner when he suspects he is about to get kneed straight in the goddamn balls.

“Jesus Christ, darlin’!” Wayne exclaims, bringing a hand to his chest.

Steve finally manages a glance over Eddie’s shoulder to find Joanie standing just inside the living room, her small frame silhouetted by the bathroom light.

She’s holding something with big eyes that appear to be blinking.

Now Steve can hear the robotic snoring sounds that have half the household scared out of their minds.

“Don’t worry, Pa,” Joanie says, stepping forward and holding up her Christmas present, “It’s just my Furby.”

Psst

Since we have a hat gremlin- what about other hat wearing Characters?

Sir pent., husker, Lucifer... SUSAN (angel wore a hat one time and so didnt vaggie- do they count?) and Valentino?

My only note is that if Valentino has one it is the equivalent to the most angry lil devil that bites his bald ass head like a rabid flea.

Good evening my dear! I GOT THIS ASK IN THE MORNING AND I KID YOU NOT IT HAS BEEN ON MY BRAIN SINCE. Switching between third person and referring to the reader as you

I'm thinking Sir Pentious's hat creature is like a little lizard, like the gecko lizard that tries to sell you car insurance but instead of car insurance it's just insurance, for what you ask? No idea it's probably a scam don't buy anything from hat lizard, Lil' hat lizard likes to take out with Sir Pentious's hat when he's sleeping, freaks out the eggy Bois, hat gecko totally tries to be a wingman and set him up with Cherri bomb! They are the best winggecko

Huskers hat creature is SMALL, they like the warmth from his fur, you take a lil' nappy nap, snoozy time, when he was a overlord they would help him win casino games, how you ask? I don't know, I don't know how it works but probably by stealing cards or something, his hat creature is probably drunk off their rockers too! Probably chill in cups when not in the hat.

Lucifers hat creature is a duck, 100% a regular duck, a duck that likes to vibe in a hat, that's all I got, the hat quacks. [Lilith gave you to him before leaving.] He likes to show you off to Charlie and the other sins "LOOK AT MY DUCK! THEY REALLY LIKE MY HAT HAhaA"

ANGEL'S CRIME HAT, his lil hat creature is just a lil' guy! He treats em' like a second child [the first is fat nuggets obviously] takes you out of the hat to dress you up, you probably ride fat nuggets like a horse when out of the hat, crime hat creature is totally small enough for that,

I despise Valentino so the bastard is, as per usual dying.

[Warning for mild implied suicide, it's not in depth but It's implied, just a sentence not the reader or the grapist.]

He doesn't have a hat gremlin he has a hat cursed demon leech.

Cursed leech wasn't always cursed, they originally clinged to one of Valentino's victims who ran out during extermination day and you can guess what fate they met.

You, the little hat thing wanted revenge for your fallen friend and so you exited the hat you were originally attached to and infested Valentino's.

Valentino has a constant headache because you bite, sharp teeth piercing his skin, he can't take the hat off because you latch on like a leech, you probably have some diseases that transfer to Valentino so he has to go to the doctors often.

Hat leech will eventually lead to Valentino's permanent death and only then will they be satisfied in taking revenge for their fallen friend, they will exit Valentino's hat and return to the one they left, maybe they'll move on to someone else and be their friend but until then they're on their own.

Vaggie doesn't have a hat gremlin, she has a BOW gremlin, allegedly came from heaven, you are the bow itself. Unraveling to be a bow creature that helps taking people out.

Bonus for Vox because he has a hat right? Or am I delusional we'll find out.

Lil robot creature, totally doubles as a spy, vox's hat is sometimes seen around the hotel stalking Alastor.

SUSAN MY BELOVED OLD GRUMPY LADY, I gotta write for her again soon!

Her hat creature is just like her! Old! her hat will rise up for a moment curse someone out before shrinking back down, similar to Rosie's gremlin, maybe they're related? They probably get into fights, the folks of cannibal town just see Susan's hat and Rosie's hat going at it, dueling probably with weapons I can see them using guns or sticks, sharp sticks,

Susan likes her hat creature, treats em' like a pet and feeds them sinners.

DOODLES TIME, I can't draw anyone's hats for the life of me.

My handwriting sucks but we don't talk about that

Honourable Mentions:

Gru + Minions, Vector (Despicable Me), Megamind (when he was villainous), Doctor Nefarious, Gyro Gearloose and Technical Boy would consider arson too lowbrow. In their tech-savvy minds, shrink rays, piranha guns, dehydration guns, atomisation, robot and clone armies and breaking every bone in the person's body all send the correct message.

"Why settle for a house?" wonders most iterations of the Doctor (Doctor Who). "Why not drop them on some desolate planet or in some hostile universe where they die over and over again?" Bill Cipher seconds this notion.

Jack Frost (Rise of the Guardians) would freeze the doors and ice the floors and windows, effectively creating a giant icebox as fires cannot stay burning in his presence.

Dark Helmet, Kylo Ren, Armitage Hux and Darth Vader would vaporise the person's house (and planet to boot) from space. If the person was off-world at the time, those who are Force or Schwartz users will proceed to Force-choke or laser the person even after they have lost everything.

Scar (The Lion King) would arrange an accident that is tragically and unavoidably fatal while Shenzi, Banzai and Ed would maul the person in full view of a crowd.

Gaz Membrane is constantly rude to anyone who dares to be her obsession, but if anyone else tries the same rudeness, they will pay. Zim and the two main Tallest also have shades of this.

Albert Wesker (Resident Evil 5 era): Look, another test subject for Uroboros has presented itself.

Urdnot Wrex, Grunt (Mass Effect 2) and Wolverine are not the burn-your-house-down types. It would be too easy for the person to learn nothing from the experience, such as how much they should be afraid of running their mouth to the wrong stranger in the future. These three will knock the person out before they even finish the sentence.

Yzma has exactly the right potion for this human flea, except that she adds an extra four or so steps to the plan.

Lord Hater invades the scoundrel's home planet with the support of Commander Peepers and his army of Watchdogs, or he may blast the world to smithereens with a laser.

Lord Dominator delights in crushing this pest's home world with her drill and making them watch every life on it come to an end.

Marvin the Martian said it best: "Be polite, or I'll vaporise you."

Every time I see someone say they don't find Midoriya interesting, a piece of me just fades away. I know he doesn't look it, but he's batshit crazy. He is a damn wild card.

EVEN BEFORE OBTAINING OFA.

All Might decided to give OFA after seeing this kid do something crazy (running ahead to save Bakugou from the Sludge Villain... defenseless).

After that, for training, what does Midoriya do?

CLEAN A BEACH!! Keep in mind, he is just a scrawny kid. And then one morning, he just decides "I'm about to do something wild".

He climbs up a pile of trash, and just screams into oblivion with a war cry, shirtless just as the sun is rising.

That's just the beginning!

Kid has punched a robot the size of a building, attempts to fight an obviously dangerous villain with broken bones.

Later during the Sports Festival, he manages to make a new friend with Icy-Hot Princey boy who holds a grudge (I mean rightfully so, but this ain't about him) by breaking his bones and screaming at him and could have got himself killed in doing so. Oh wait! Rewind! Before that, Midoriya goes through an obstacle course race without using his quirk and just being calculating.

AND GETS FIRST PLACE before kids with quirks that can boost their speed!!

After that arc, he faces a whole serial killer!! He gets told not to run off and guess what? He does it anyways!

You know what, let me just list things he is and has done the best way I can because when I say this kid is not what he seems, he is not what he seems.

Doesn't listen, "I do what I want because it's right even though I'll get yelled at for it". Okay, this kid is impulsive sometimes.

Puts up with Bakugou and calls this explosive kid "Kacchan". Who in the hell gives that boom-boom gremlin a cutesy nickname and not once get told to stop using it? Midoriya damn Izuku, that's who.

Wears t-shirts that says other pieces of clothing like "blouse" and "tank top". WHERE DID HE GET THEM?!

Can mimic All Might's face and voice!

Has to be told to keep his emotions in check because they affect OFA, his strongest emotion being anger. And when he's angry, just beg for mercy. Just get on your knees and hope he doesn't break your face or something and embarrasses you. (Muscular got it twice as he deserves!)

Faced an ASSASSIN.

Somehow managed to still move like it's nothing after being shocked by KAMINARI and after that, headbutting through Todoroki's ice wall (by accident). (Class 1A VS Deku fight)

Midoriya is intelligent, he's observant. He's able to work how the function of someone's quirk just by watching. He was able to figure out how Stain's quirk worked and how he's using it. Stain, the Hero Killer.

On that note, he uses his knowledge to incorporate that in his own moves and how he can work with OFA. Midoriya is creative.

Even though he knows the risks, he sometimes pushes his body to the limit and breaks his bones and sometimes still wants to fight despite his body being damaged at that time.

Tried to talk down Dabi the same way as he did with Todoroki and honestly, he deserves some credit for that. It didn't worked, but he tried talking to DABI. Dabi is something else.

There's probably more I missed, but I'm just saying Midoriya Izuku is just more than that sweet round freckled face. And you wouldn't think with that face he would have the body he does. He used to be a scrawny kid. But now? He is a pint-sized powerhouse!

Do not take him lightly. He needs to come with a warning label!

Look, if he's boring to you, fine. I don't care. Didn't write this post to convince you.

I wrote this post to express just how I feel about him.

I know some people are put off by him because "he's the protagonist, he gets a lot of the spotlight".

But that's not stopping me. I mean, Miruko is my number one tied with Midoriya and she shares a lot less focus than he does! To me, a character doesn't have to be minor or a major one to be liked. I look past that role and see their other qualities and in the case of Midoriya, I like his qualities enough for him to be an interesting character to me.

Which is rare for me because my favorites often be the minor characters, characters that don't get as much screen time and aren't as popular. Even for BNHA! A lot of my favorites are characters that haven't spoken in the manga since forever!

(For goodness' sake, I know I'll sound salty for this and I do adore the other characters! The Todoroki's got a whole arc and even an origin to how their whole mess started dating back to when Enji and Rei met! And we still don't know Midoriya’s dad whereabouts! WE KNOW HAWKS' BACKSTORY!! AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT HISASHI LOOKS LIKE!! Midoriya barely has had focus for how many chapters this whole ongoing war arc now? Just saying, even though there's a lot of characters, let's not act as if Midoriya gets the spotlight all the time.)

That's just me now.

(Don't even reblog and say something like "Okay, I see your point, OP, but I still think he's boring." Or argue why he's boring to you. Don't even come into my inbox with all that. Again, I do not care.)

[trashthrashiing]

( cont. from here with @docnefarious )

Scourge lets out a squeal of delight as gravity takes its unforgiving hold on the poor, unsuspecting robot, and as his metallic appendages wrap ever so more securely around her, she can't help but allow a small trill to rise from the back of her throat.

"NEFFIEEEE!"

And with that, Scourge SMACKS her furry forehead right into his big green dome of a cranium. One of her odd ways of showing affection- it's a wonder she hasn't given herself a concussion this way. Her long tail whips back and forth in excitement with enough force to take someone's eye out.

"Ah... that's a LONG story, you see. In fact, you MIGHT not wanna let anyone see my face for a while. Aaaaand if you see a wanted poster, yeah, that's DEFINITELY me."

The little gremlin snickers.

"...Acid, you say?"

Murder Drones Human AU part 1. Will update when I am home and not being THREATENED BY A TINY MURDER GREMLIN

Her eyes slowly opened up. Light seeping into her pupils, headache rising from the back of her head as blood pumped itself across her aching body.

What a strange dream. Of robotics, a hyper murderous AI, some goddess who did…

Shaking her head, yawning. Whatever it was. Clearly, it didn't matter. Already fading to the recesses of her mind, arms raised over her head as she cracked her neck.

Pain slowly pulled away, headache, drowsiness fading as she stood up. Blood rushing to her head, yawning as she stretched behind her head.

Rising across the room, red and blue over her neck, eyes trailing towards the door. Gripping the handle. And then she froze.

It all flooded back, the night before. Under the stars, a dance, cuddling under a blanket…

She looked away. Her face hot, swallowing as she overheard her father talk up the stairs. Rubbing her head, dandruff dropping invisibly onto the bed, before shaking her head as she threw the blanket off.

“So.”

Snapping from her stupor. Toast, egg and a slice of bacon. Placed on her plate, snapping to her old man as he spoke.

“Who's the boy?”

A twinkle in her eyes. A mumbled thanks now a shot up, glowing red teen. Purple streak straightened with the rest of her spine and neck.

“I-...”

Turning to the left, camly placing feta cheese over the hardened surface. Staying silent as she stammered.

“Er... He-...”

Hands placed into her face, grumbling as she cursed herself. Khan chuckled, throat rumbling as he spoke up.

“Is he your boyfriend?”

Tap no longer running off the table, the girl looked up. Hesitating, before shoving her face full with her breakfast.

Awkward, Uzi doorman. As strange as that name was, in a word, that was what the family was. Doormen. No, it wasn't those people who went door to door, well. Sometimes…

Snorting. Sneezing. The man shook off the excess thoughts. The girl halfway through her food, face bright red, and idea sparked in his head.

Sparks igniting in front of her eyes, light illuminated into a circle. Lines forming before the figure's shape. Illuminating…

Blink.

Smirking at her, breakfast already finished, lunch left on the bench top. Wiping crumbs off his thin beard, Khan spoke.

“Ah, I guess I'll have to buy more bacon and eggs.”

Helping himself up from the bench top, handing the plate to….

“... Uh…?”

Voice smaller, quiet. Hands nervously on the table, staring at him, younger. A night before it happened. With her hair, black hair, began to grow down the youngster's scalp and neck.

Blink.

Stunned. Mouth slowly dropping, silver hair, purple marks on his neck, bleary eyes looking straight at the teen.

“Oh, I'm very sorry Mr Doorman-”

Hands raised, a polite smile over his cute face. Taller, in a simple tee, towering over the older man.

“Don’t worry about it!”

Beaming proud, the teen seemed to shrink in his presence. Between completely anxious and mildly perplexed. Her jaw dropped, face a light pink as pops looked to Buddy.

“Eat your food, it'll get cold.”

The New Ninjago Show

(Please note before you proceed this is all in good fun for the haha funnies okay? Got it? We'll be nice? Okay good yo may go on!)

Me noticing that the main characters who are missing from the new Ninjago show are the most queer coded of the bunch aside from Lloyd himself: 0-0

Okay I'm sure that this is partially me being salty literally all my favorite characters (minus Nya) are missing from the dragons rising as far as I'm aware, but seriously I just find it a little... weird. (Also if I just am dumb and missed one of the characters in the trailers somehow let me know)

So number one we have THE most queer coded of all the characters that being Cole- Like my mans is all but confirmed to be lgbt+ in some way shape or form, come on we've all seen the royal blacksmiths episode aka The Coming Out Episode TM and the entire show + interviews with different crew members are REALLY dropping at least some hints (Honestly Cole's gonna get his own post at one point)

For two I'm actually mushing two characters together cause I have like the same thing to say that being Zane and Pixal- Now they're probably the less obvious of but a lot of people have kinda collectively gone "Yeah they're robots they have no real concept of gender why would they" a statement I agree with. Zane and Pixal also both have their moments of also just generally not being very straight.

Lastly we have Jay whose pretty straight forward- I'm pretty sure everybody and their fairy godmothers have come to the conclusion Jay is bi like Mr. sir has the hots for both the Smith siblings (who also have their moments)

Lloyd of course is his own bundle of queer coding but he's like the main character so they physically could never get rid of are favorite green gremlin.

This is all hilariously ironic since this show is literally coming out on June 1st and honestly if they do confirm Cole (they've really been eluding to him specifically that's why I'm mentioning him so much) only to immediately kill him off/disappear him/generally get rid of him it's gonna be pretty shitty tbh and I have to trust the writers probably know that since from what I can tell they're definitely not detached from the internet or the fandom they created so idk.

Now am I saying all of this was on purpose: absolutely not this is probably just a pure coincidence that kinda sucks and is also kinda funny tbh. I really doubt that the creators/writers did this on purpose it's just something I happened to notice and it gave me a chance to talk about the trailers a little more, I'm probably gonna make a video on it (would y'all watch that?) so yeah.

Also the show is coming out in pride moth, take that as you will. (P.S this is completely detached from the post but I wanted to mention Arin (what a way to spell that name) seems to be a Green Ninja fan but I would love if Sora was like a huge Zane/Pixal fan since she seems to like technology and is like disappointed she didn't get to meet them in like a comedic way idk just a thought)

I've got nothing left to do but wait, and if I got something wrong it's because I'm very stupid. Thank yo and good night!

Alright hear me out:

-Purple and green for the win

-"How's the weather up there" club member

-With great IQ comes an even greater big fkn forehead

-Will bite off your kneecaps and go feral if given the opportunity and a (arguably) good reason to

-The only thing stopping them from being official and praised scientists is war crimes

-✨EYEBROWS✨

-Grumpy loner boi, but crave attention for his undeniable genius

-Flying menace

-Would never miss a single piece of content of Jupiter Jim/Lance and Janice

-Has built robot(s) to do their bidding and praising them

-"I'm gonna beat you with the power of drama and this gun I've made!"

-Evil gremlin with redeeming qualities

-Breaks the fabric of time, space and the rules of physics to invent cool crap on a daily basis and doesn't get nearly enough credit for it

-THREE FINGERS!!! THEY BOTH HAVE 3 FINGERS ON EACH HAND! THAT'S HOW FKN CLOSE THOSE TWO ARE!!!

-so many other things...

And this is why I present to you: ✨💜Dr Nefarious (Ratchet and Clank) and Donatello Hamato's (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) potential friendship💜✨

The only thing stopping them from being perfect nerdy friendship material is the obvious fact that one is more heroic and the other villainous, and also Nefarious' extreme hate for all organic life forms.

Fck it they can still be rivals with respect for each other's work.

@faztastiic / @fazfiend / @fazerblaster

After everything that's happened in the span of like a day, it was terrifying to think that she had genuinely been left wondering if she'd ever feel the sun bathe on her skin again.

And to think back on that doubt now that she can feel her skin under the lukewarm sunlight of a barely rising sun, the still soft oranges reflecting her eyes...

Cassie wanted to let out a sob; she made it. But instead she just stood there, basking in the moment, processing that yes; despite everything, she had just escaped the hell now located right behind her. She stood and stared out at the open sky, still dark and with a few stars out, the oranges of the incoming morning peeking into the horizon, shining a soft warm light over the decrepit building that once used to be like her second home, the Mega PizzaPlex.

But she didn't claw her way out alone. She's not the only one who got to see the sky and feel the first morning rays embrace their forms. On her way back, she did her hardest to make up to every other abandoned heart, finding a few more clues along the way, too, painting a picture that only heightened her thoughts. And together they stood tall. Like since when she was little. Like it should always have been. Before those two ever showed up to ruin everything.

Roxanne had one eye at least, donated by Chica who was happy to have her voice back, Monty had been rescued from the water and rebooted (Cassie had never intended to electrocute him,) the Daycare Attendant was happy to help especially after having been helped, and the Freddy Prototype even had his head back-- which certainly must have been no easy task for Cassie to find! ... and a handful of the Mini Music Men, they were there too, yeah. Gremlins. Cassie absolutely refused to leave anybody behind (she's not like Gregory.)

And that also includes the one and only, Glamrock Bonnie. Long thought to be gone. The rabbit was arguably in the worst condition of them all, being totally unresponsive, having to be carried by the others. It was even questionable if there was any hope for him, but again, Cassie refused to leave anybody behind.

They all were what's left of her family, and she'll do what's necessary to take care of them, like they have taken care of her helping her escape a terrible fate.

■■■

It's been like what, a couple weeks? A month or two? Cassie took all the robots under her wing, sheltering them in her old home... Turns out her Dad had been up to some stuff since her mother's shady death.

There was an entire bunker underground duplicating the house, and she took it over, living in secrecy, safe and sound with her family.

The past while has been spent trying to repair them, fortunately there were a few things her Dad had left behind that wound up useful; she managed to give Chica an endo arm as she was missing one, and while Monty hasn't gotten his legs yet they managed to reconstruct his lower torso- meaning legs were the next step, but at least he could sit more properly again. The Prototype Freddy had a lot of debris and other metal junk stabbing into his body, and Cassie arduously plucked them out herself with tools left by her Dad. Cassie herself was getting better-- she still occasionally got dizzy spells, would wince when stepping on her foot wrong shooting pain up her shin, and would feel her arm get sore from time to time; one couldn't expect her to come out unscathed from an attempted murder via an elevator drop.

It was slow, but they were coming back together. They were going to.

Aside from that, they needed parts, which was where things began getting a little more complicated. Her Dad's secret workshop was full of useful things, but not everything necessary for full repairs... but that was when something new came to light.

Cassie still had that creepy Security Mask, though had long left the V.A.N.N.I. Network which had no coverage outside the PizzaPlex. Still, looks like the mask has a few distinct functions without the network. The past while has been spent getting used to these features as well, even proving to be useful in detecting parts compatible for repairing her peers!

But that's not all.

The mask seemed to function like a detector of Fazbear Entertainment technology through places, from electronic toys to accessories to equipment and even animatronics. A little more testing with such features and the possibility of even hacking into these objects was very palpable. But Cassie of course wasn't interested in wasting time doing malicious cyber-activities, just what was necessary to help her and her family.

■■■

Though after enough time, she found something... familiar. Her lost remaining family member. One who still needs rescuing... probably the most out of them all.

She doesn't immediately dive into it, trying to be safe, spending some time verifying if she was correct.

Eventually, a day where the sun had just set, Cassie puts on the mask, trying to set up a remote communication. With it on, she can see Helpi sitting on the edge of the work table where Bonnie has been laying, like a patient in intensive care-- no doubt the little bear will be an 'audience' of sorts.

Cassie first tries verifying the stability of the connection, managing to access optical and auditory reception of the 'stray' animatronic she's trying to reach, able to see and hear his surroundings-- she doesn't think she recognizes the area, but at least nobody seems to be immediately present with him; good. Before the access can raise alarm in his system, she throws her two cents.

" H... hello...? Can you... hear me...? "

She gingerly asks, almost fearful of what this communication might reward with, but also unimaginable anticipation. It was like she was speaking right into his head. She spares a look over at Helpi to give her the courage to continue.

" Is... is that really you... Glamrock Freddy...? "

Dum-E’s Day Off

(Takes place during chapter 9) “Hide in the shed if you need to but feel free to roam a bit. Just be back before dark.” Their creator told it. Dum-E gave a nod and rolled away from the library.

Dum-E didn't actually know what to do. It didn't really leave the Owl House (or Rising Sun) often, if at all. They could go back and wait out those horrid gremlins like its creator suggested but it would still ‘hear’ that awful wailing and their A.I. siblings didn't always understand how it communicated. It wasn't their fault they didn't have (nor wanted) a speaker it could use to talk. Dum-E was just fine with its gestures and Morse code and its creator understood them just fine. That was all that truly mattered in the end.

Dum-E came to a stop mere inches from a stand. They backed up a bit, grateful for its sensors, and realized it was Mort’s potion shop. It had only been to Mort’s little shop maybe once or twice before while the creator ran errands for the Owl Lady and needed an extra hand. They raised their arm enough to be seen (and to see) over the counter.

“Hey!” The stall runner, Mort, leaned against the counter. “Aren't you Luz’s metal beast or something?”

Luz equaled the creator but they were not a beast. It raised its hand up and down in a nod anyway. They doubted the witch cared for the specifics of what Dum-E was. They looked around the shop that it could see and noticed a pot filled with several plants. They had two layers of orange petals and a yellow pistil in the center. It gestured to the plant hoping Mort would know what it meant.

The owner looked at the plant and back at the robot. “Are you interested in the Sleeping Nettles? Careful or you might fall asleep.”

That was false. They had no nose nor blood. However I.S.A.A.C. and the creator may be interested in them. They made a grabbing motion at the Sleeping Nettles.

“If you want them it’ll be 30 snails.”

That seemed like a lot. Especially since they had zero snails. It stared at Mort hoping he understood.

“Well I can’t just give them to you for free. I’m running a business here.” Dum-E stared longer, calculating if they could simply grab the plants and roll out of there. That is until a crow flew down and cawed at the witch. He lifted it up to his ear. “Hello, Mort speaking. That’s today? But my shop… I don't know…”

Mort looked at Dum-E then the plant. He lowered the crow. “How badly do you want the Nettles?”

Dum-E gestured from one side of the counter to the other as if that was a good scale. Mort seemed to think over something.

“Tell you what, so some errands for me and you got yourself a deal.” They agreed eagerly, nearly knocking on the wood. Mort went back to the crow. “Alright, I have a way to do both. No I won’t elaborate, see ya later.”

Mort let the crow go. Dum-E followed the crow’s motion as it flew off before it turned back to Mort.

“I need you to pick up my cousin’s witchling and take him to the Hexside daycare. I’ll write a note so he’ll go with you and so the caretakers won’t freak out.”

No way. It shook its hand aggressively. They didn't do kids, they had just escaped three. There was no way they would spend time with another.

“Do you want the Nettles or not?”

Nope. I.S.A.A.C. and the creator could cry but there was no way.

---

Those two owed them so much. The Child it was tasked to look after was a menace. When it reached the correct park the Child, after struggling to read the note, decided to bury them in dirt for no reason at all. Dum-E had only just freed itself enough to move when the hellion sprinted down the road. 

“Let’s go, Handy! To Hexside!” The boy screamed.

He had the audacity to call Dum-E ‘Handy’? What kind of name was that? It would rather its battery die than be called that. It rolled after the Child reminding itself of how happy the creator and I.S.A.A.C. would be. They were a great eldest and those flowers would prove it.

---

The Child was really pushing Dum-E’s buttons. They didn't even have any and this menace pushed them. Dum-E had to stop him several times from running into traffic and was led to a construction area because the Child claimed his parent worked there. They didn't and Dum-E had to drag the Child out as it wondered if child abandonment was an issue here. They finally made it to Hexside and, of course, they were stopped by stairs of all things. If it had tears it would cry.

The Child tapped Dum-E’s arm. They were so ready to snap but instead found a ramp. “Mama has trouble too. So I made a ramp. For Mama and Handy.”

Damn the Child. How was it supposed to hate him if he pulled sweet shit like this? Dum-E awkwardly patted his head and made their way up the tamp.

---

The caretaker wasn't there when the two made it to the classroom. There weren't any students there either much to Dum-E’s relief, however the Child decided to give it a ‘makeover’. That meant giving it googly eyes and coloring its base. When the caretaker came back it was with a bunch of tiny children, each with a cup of juice. Each child ran to  Dum-E and the Child, some not caring that they spilled juice all over the place, including on them. Dum-E just wanted to go home. They rolled up to the caretaker and gestured to the Child to give them the note.

“Oh, you're dropping Eiden off?” They asked. Dum-E nodded. “You're a bit late but that’s ok. I've got him from here. Should I expect you back for pick up?”

They gave a no. This was enough for them. The Child hugged them tightly before they could leave.

“I’ll miss you, Handy.” He said.

Dum-E wrapped their arm around the Child as best it could. They still didn't like children but maybe this one was ok.

---

“Yeesh, you look like a mess.” Mort said when they rolled up.

Dum-E gestured to the Sleeping Nettles.

“Ok, I got it.” Mort placed the pot in a bag and jotted something into a piece of paper. “We could do this again if you wanted.”

Dum-E was quick to give a no. Once was enough.

“Too bad.” Mort tied the bag to its arm. “It was nice doing business with you, Metal Creature.”

Dum-E wanted to believe its googly eyes rolled at that as they made its way back to the Owl House. Hopefully the creator had a less chaotic day than it did.

---

“What the hell happened to you?” The creator asked. They didn't want to talk about it. “C’mon, bud. Let’s get you cleaned up.”

Yes please.

(I’ve been writing a lot of angst lately so I decided to write something fluffy. Now you get to see it. Agony of A Witch is killing me but oh well.)

A Taxonomy of Call Agents

The Ideal Point of Contact: "I've followed my script to a tee, with just a few ancillary points of personalization to make the structure feel more organic. I've listed all relevant info and helped you book an appointment in the best of cases. I sounded like a human being without being unprofessional and made sure to bring a bit of warmth and basic common courtesy to the proceedings."

The Actually Standard Agent: "I follow my script slavishly because previous postings scared me out of any sort of spontaneity. Everything is performative, but I at least don't sound like a robot."

The Robot: "I've thoroughly compartimentalized my job and have zero emotional affect involved. On the one hand, that gives me the social resiliency of Teflon and I'll swallow Karens unloading their irrational hatred onto me like it's a nutritious breakfast. On the other, I'm probably masking for some social awkwardness I'm stuck with."

The Stoner: "Hey man, everyone's chill. Everyone's a friendo, everyone's super cool - watch me land anecdotes and crack wise with people I'll never actually meet! I'll forget what I'm supposed to be doing and then fall asleep on the job, to where the Brain Gremlin will need to wake me up with a 3CX call. I'll mutter apologies and turn into a mellow version of the Robot for the rest of my shift."

The Overachiever: "I'm taking calls and doing my college-level Chemistry labs at the same time. Watch me juggle five or six different tasks at once with a modicum of success, which hurts my call rate but makes me come across as really mature and organized. The truth is I'm not, I just look like it."

The Evangelical: "I'm relentlessly kind to my clients and coworkers alike, but I feel obligated to end my scripts with a God bless that sometimes annoys the secular majority. I can't understand why anyone would be annoyed, as I've fully integrated the notion of proselytization as a basic component of being nice to people. When conversations turn personal over Slack, I'm the first to default to questions of faith as a show of support. I'm far too nice to notice the supervisors' rising annoyance, however."

The Grandma: "I'm professional when addressing someone of the same age range as myself, but default to grandmotherly or grandfatherly warmth with anyone younger. My avuncular charm is a viciously effective Sales tactic, but I'm also among the least technically savvy in the agent pool. Pair me with the Former Salesman on a list and I'll rack up all the referrals you'll ever need."

The Former Salesman: "I know all the tricks and needed precisely zero training outside of UX/UI concerns. I'll book you people with my eyes closed and have far more insight into the average customer's needs than your average agent. No longer being a salesperson, however, I'm under no obligation to butter anyone up. My blunt honesty counters my natural schmooze and sometimes costs us referrals - but it's workable."

The Gamer or Crypto Bro: "I took this job to finance my extreme hardware requirements, all I'll ever talk about is the ZOTAC Trinity OC's estimated TDP when properly liquid-cooled. God help you if I notice you're a fellow gamer, I'll start thinking the supervisory track knows about Street Fighter 6's Zangief meta or would be interested in setting up Coinbase accounts."
