Window Across the Galaxy ✧*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ*

masterlist

18+ only MDNI | rocket x f!oc | 27/27 chapters | COMPLETE | word count: 235,940.

girl falls first; raccoon falls harder.

Rocket is captured by a Ravager crew hoping to get rich off the excessively large bounty on his head. Throwing a wrench in everyone’s plans is the Terran girl they hired to do some freelance assessing on a recent haul of goods they’ve seized from a Xandaran luxury liner. Oops.

slight AU starting pre-GOTG volume 1 (but will hit most of the same major plot points). slow burn + eventual smut with a lot of pining in the middle. kinda enemies-to-lovers? (but only one of these idiots thinks they're enemies).

let me be real with you: this fic is really about wish-fulfillment. not just the eventual smut (but that too). mostly i just want someone to be nice to my best boy raccoon back to main masterlist.

so many amazing sweet wonderful readers have drawn fanart of this fic??? ♡♡♡♡♡ jolie is written without much physical description so you can imagine whatever you want but if you'd like to see how i and others imagine her, i've linked them below. thank you for being the absolute sweetest.

jolie's painting of rocket by @hibataao3 makes me cry every time i look at it

and here are my jolie character concepts (complete full-color illo & rough doodles) and an illustration of one of my fave scenes from window ♡

✧･ﾟ:*collects Chapters I-XXVII (below the cut) & a holiday special && a silly epilogue

Chapter I. A Delicacy. in which our reluctant heroes meet atop a crate of Sovereign porn in the bowels of a Ravager ship.

Chapter II. Monster For A Pet. in which one hero wrestles with his inner Groot, and the other is quite possibly a moron.

Chapter III. A Kindness. in which Rocket gets in his own damn way: not for the first time, and certainly not for the last.

Chapter IV. Got There First. in which our heroes obtain an arsenal and street food.

Chapter V. Things No-One Has Said Before. in which one hero refuses to babysit and the other refuses to leave.

Chapter VI. Two and a Half Billion Units. in which we lean into the “they were roommates” trope. Jolie has misgivings, while Rocket has fantasies - about getting rich, of course.

Chapter VII. I'm Here. in which we visit Knowhere.

Chapter VIII. The Care & Feeding of Human Pets. in which our heroes practice breathing and we lean into a new trope: “there was (technically) one bed.”

Chapter IX. Scrapmetal and a Dream. in which we redefine homemaking.

Chapter X. Thin Fucking Ice. in which our heroes get fucked. Not in the good way.

Chapter XI. Let It Be .in which Xandar is saved and good lives are lost.

Chapter XII. So Much It Hurts. in which we try not to fuck up the vibes.

Chapter XIII. Don’t Wait. in which a lost sister is found and Drax grapples with the concept of sarcasm.

Chapter XIV. Exactly Like a Flower. in which comfort is shared.

Chapter XV: Galaxy-Breaking Shit. in which more comfort is shared, and life is good. Briefly.

Chapter XVI. Run. in which Rocket falls victim to his superstitions.

Chapter XVII. A Seedling. A Fox. A Little Girl. in which the party is divided.

Chapter XVIII. I Happen to Know a Guy. in which our heroes get fucked. Again. Still not in the good way.

Chapter XIX. He Was Loved. in which a planet is killed, a friend is made and lost, and nobody still has any frickin’ tape.

Chapter XX. Some Nerve. * in which an ultimatum is given.

Chapter XXI. I Very Still. ❤︎❤︎ in which our heroes get fucked. In the good way, this time. Finally.

Chapter XXII. Got There Worse. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket does not say "I love you."

Chapter XXIII. We're Gonna Need a Bigger Table. ❤︎ in which the galaxy just keeps spinning.

Chapter XXIV. Space Would Be Better. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket ~ discreetly ~ claims the title of boyfriend.

Chapter XXV. Little Love Stories. in which both of our heroes learn a little about themselves. ❤︎

Chapter XXVI. Other Side of the Window. in which old friends are reunited. ❤︎

miss america | chapter iii

pairing: bucky barnes x fem!reader

series summary: you're steve's sister, and bucky barnes' girlfriend. and maybe also a supersoldier from the 40s

chapter summary: you say goodbye to bucky before he's shipped off to England, and you receive some news.

chapter warnings: little bit of joking about the possibility of stucky,

A/N: actually finished writing this because I got a 4.0 and felt like I should celebrate

series masterlist ♡ masterlist ♡ next chapter

Steve dejectedly stepped down from the platform in the army recruitment centre. Every guy that stood on it could actually envision themselves joining the army. Not Steve though; he wasn't even tall enough to see himself in the reflection of a soldier.

"Come on, you're kinda missing the point of a double date," Bucky said as he pushed Steve from behind. "I don't think you can call it a double date anymore, since Ruth ran off," you said pointedly. "We're going to get some drinks at the bar nearby, y'know to celebrate me leaving," Bucky told Steve.

"We're not celebrating that you're leaving James," you scolded. "Okay, doll, 'commemorating'. Is that better? Jeez, you sound like Ma," Bucky responded while you shook your head in annoyance.

"You guys go ahead, I'll catch up with you," Steve said, with his hands in his pocket.

"You really gonna do this again?"

"Well it's a fair; I'm gonna try my luck,"

"As who, Steve from Ohio?" You asked, the sarcasm evident. "They'll catch you." You took on a more caring tone.

"Or worse, they'll actually take you," Bucky stated, unabashedly showing his concern and worry for his friend.

"Who needs parents when they have you two..." Steve muttered, his words unheard by the pair. "Look, I know you two don't think I can do this-"

"This isn't a back alley Steve." Bucky said, his annoyance with Steve's stubbornness rising. "It's war!"

"I know it's a war-"

"Why are you so keen to fight?" You asked him, not understanding why someone would put themselves in so much danger willingly. "There are so many important jobs!"

"What do you want me to do? Collect scrap metal in my little red wagon?" Steve asked sarcastically.

"Yes! Why not?!"

"I'm not going to sit in a factory Bucky-"

"I don't-"

"Bucky! Come on, there are men laying down their lives. I got no right to do any less than them," Steve argued.

"But-" you tried to reason with Steve.

"You get to help people like Ma, you're a nurse. The least I could do is help the country by fighting for it like Pa," Steve continued." That's what you don't understand. This isn't about me."

"Right, cause you've got nothing to prove."

"We should go, your Ma asked us to be back for dessert," you said while you tugged on Bucky's sleeve, not willing to see them so hostile towards each other.

Bucky relented as he started stepping backwards. "Don't do anything stupid until I get back."

"How can I? You're taking all the stupid with you," Steve joked.

That put a smile on Bucky's face. "You're a punk," he said as he went in for a hug. "Jerk."

Most weren't as lucky as you were, to have a brother who didn't want to fight who they were dating (at least most of the time). You were frankly glad that they were best friends.

"Take care of my girl while I'm gone would ya?" Bucky said as he walked over to you and fit his hand around your waist. "Hey, she was my sister first before she was your girlfriend," Steve challenged.

You all snickered at that. "Steve make sure you don't stay up too late missing Bucky after he's gone; he's my boyfriend not yours," you smiled.

"Don't win the war until I get there!"

Bucky did a salute to Steve as he turned around to walk with you to his house. You loved going to his house, and his parents loved you. Winifred, or Winnie as she asked you to call her, treated you and Steve like her own children, being Steve's secondary pillar of support after your mother's death. Bucky had three younger sisters, but he was closest to Rebecca, the youngest. Becca idolised Bucky, and wanted to be just like her big brother. Her and Bucky's age gap of 16 years was never a problem when she wanted him to play dolls with him when she was younger. Becca adored you too, Bucky joking that she liked you more than she liked him. With Bucky's two other younger sisters, Marjorie and Betty, busy with high school, you were the most available to talk to her or braid her hair.

Bucky knocked at the door, the smell of freshly baked mock cherry pie wafting through the door. "Looks like she made your favourite dessert," you smiled as Becca opened the door.

"Look what the cat dragged in," she said as she stepped to the side to let you two in. "So excited to see me," Bucky laughed as he ruffled her hair. As you walked through the hallway that led to the main living room, memories of Steve chasing you through them flooded through your mind. With your mother busy at the hospital trying to make ends meet, Winnie always made sure you two had food to eat and a roof over your heads. Literally. When the roof of your cheap rental house collapsed, she was the one to offer the three of you the spare room. You remembered having dinner here the day before you left to Connecticut to stay with your aunt and Winnie barely let you go the whole evening.

"Dessert's almost ready. You two have fun at the expo?" George Barnes asked his son as he closed the book he was reading. "I'd spend eternity watching paint dry if she was next to me," Bucky replied as he sat down on the plush couch. Mr Barnes chuckled. "Young love... Your Ma and I were like this too." A scarlet blush formed on you cheeks. "I'll go inside to see if Winnie needs help with anything." you walked away and into the kitchen, beckoning Becca to join you.

"Are you going to marry Jamie?" Becca asked, her innocent eyes sparkling right up at you. You choked on air. Indeed, you two had brought up the idea some time before, but with him leaving for England, you hadn't put any thought into it. "Maybe once the war's over."

"There you are! I haven't seen you in ages. James is always keeping you for himself and never bringing you over," Winnie said as she gave you a hug that could have made up for all those years you hadn't seen her after going to Connecticut. She handed you two plates of mock cherry pie and asked if you could bring them out to the living room.

You mostly ate in silence as Winnie asked Bucky if he had packed everything.

"I'll really miss you Jamie."

"I'll miss you too Beck," Bucky said, or at least you thought he did. He was busy stuffing his mouth with Mock Cherry Pie. "Bucky, nobody's going to take the plate away from you. Slow down," You said with a laugh.

These moments were so domestic. Ones that you'd look back on if Bucky ever- no, that wouldn't happen. Bucky would return home after the war and you would get married and get a nice house far away from busy New York. With a cat maybe. Bucky had always wanted a cat; a white fluffy one.

While these thoughts occupied your mind all the way home, you saw a crinkled letter outside you and Steve's tiny apartment. "I'm not even gone yet and you're already getting love letters," Bucky, who had offered to walk you home because "It's too dangerous for a pretty girl to be walking the streets alone at night", joked.

After scoffing at his comment and playfully punching him in the stomach, you passed him the letter for him to skim through. "They've stationed you at Camp Lehigh. Y'know, as a nurse for those poor people training."

"Really?" you asked with surprise. You had always thought they wouldn't send a nurse who couldn't read to a training camp. It was kind of a promotion.

"That's great doll. At least I can send my letters there to make sure everyone knows you're taken," Bucky teased.

Letters.

L-e-t-t-e-r-s, you mentally tried to spell out.

The simplest thing that every soldier wrote to whoever they were in love with while they were off at war. You couldn't have that same pleasure.

"Bucky, why bother sending me letters when you know I can't read them."

"Then I'll paint you the most beautiful paintings and send them to you if that's what it takes for you to see how much I'll miss you."

"What are you going to paint them with? You won't have paint where you're going."

"I'll paint 'em with my blood."

"You're so dramatic."

"You love it," Bucky said as he pushed open the door of your apartment.

"Finally, you decided to open the door. I was getting bored of listening to Mr Barnes being all sappy with his girlfriend," Steve said from the frayed couch.

"It's Sergeant Barnes to you, punk,"

"Yeah yeah, I'll miss you too Bucky,"

"I'll miss you James," You said as you put your hand to his cheek. "Don't call me that. I'm Bucky. Your Bucky. Always."

every time i find a new blog by sifting through the x reader categories i find the prettiest blogs known to mankind istg ♡ congrats on 1000 btw!!! im new here but love, love, LOVE your writing already.

for your celebration, could i get a 🧁 by chance?

im 5'4, brown hair with dark blue eyes. im an introvert, infp, and a slytherin [ mainly cause im ambitious as hell ]. i love, love the color pink!!! it's my favorite color of all fucking time. like, i see something i like, ill be looking for it in the color pink. i like to think im a very giving and generous person. just today one of my new co-workers said they liked my bracelet and my instant reaction was to give it to her. plus, i like to see other humans happy. i truly believe in the kindness is free sort of deal.

when it comes to interpersonal relationships, my usually introverted self becomes much more open. still, i can be pretty reserved even with my friends because my social battery drains so, so quick. however, with those select few, it feels like i don't have a social battery. my hopes for a romantic relationship would definitely include movie nights with a giant pillow fort. if we can't do that, then what's the point. oh, and bookstore dates + picnics afterward. also, my love languages are definitely touch and gift giving. something wonky and weird about me is that im extremely prone to accidents. im constantly discovering random bruises all over myself + getting hurt, and ending up in the emergency room.

i think that's a pretty good description of me!! so yeah (: again, fricken love ur blog!!!! ♡

awwww~ thank you so much for liking my blog aesthetic and calling it pretty and enjoying my writing! that makes me so happy! (≧▽≦) since you’re new here, welcome! and i hope you enjoy what i came up with for you~ 

I ship you with Regulus Black 

i. for a slytherin, you’re quite unique in how you act sometimes. regulus being his usually observant self always sees you in his peripheral with your close group of friends but also often easily making friends with other houses when forced to interact during classes. he can see that they realise how personable you are and how…you’re nothing like a slytherin but regulus can also see those snake-like traits in you. he sees your high ambitions and it isn’t anything like his other slytherin friends’ hopes for their futures. you don’t crave power for yourself, you crave reaching your personal, unfeasible goals. he often hears you muttering to yourself about what achievements you want to get in your academics, he doesn’t believe you’ll make it but keeps his mouth shut and waits for the results… proving him wrong each time, and now, he finds himself secretly hoping that you achieve everything you hope to achieve in life, no matter how formidable. 

ii. you keep surprising him. he’s never seen green be paired with so much pink before. but you make it work somehow, he doesn’t know why it suits you so well when it would look ridiculous on other people. when he glimpses you from across the library and takes in all your pink stationary, he imagines his slytherin friends with the same pink materials and snorts when the image that manifests in his mind becomes too ludicrous for him to imagine further. “What’s got you in such a light mood, Reg?” one of his friends asks suspiciously, missing the way his steel-grey eyes linger on you before answering, “nothing…”

iii. another way that you intrigue regulus is through your interaction with your close friends. he has many who would rather lose their limbs than share their good fortune with others but you don’t even bat an eye when offering your personal valuables. It’s so otherworldly to regulus how you’re passive to power and wealth but still so ambitious and snake-like. you bring a new image about slytherins that’s refreshing and hardly ever antagonistic, creating a warm feeling that blooms in his chest. regulus reasons that it’s hope for future slytherins to follow in your example when he’s too caught up in his family drama to confidently make independent decisions. That’s not the only feeling he’s experiencing, however, and it becomes obvious the more time he spends at Hogwarts with you slowly moving from his peripheral view to his centre of focus.

iv. regulus was subtle in his approach but to his friends, who knew him, he was being too obvious. he first approached you in the library, appearing to look at the books in the shelves next to you as you were preoccupied with reading one you had recently pulled off the shelf. he glances at you over the cover of the book he was pretending to read and you do the same, the two of you actually meet eyes a couple of times but never say a word to each other. it’s become quite a small routine for the two of you to read standing side by side at the shelves. sometimes, regulus would be the one to approach you, other times it would be you approaching him. Sometimes it would be for long periods of time, to the point where you both would end up sitting on the floor together, and other times, it would be for a short few minutes and one of you has to leave. it was a good routine, quickly becoming familiar and comfortable but it was too silent. 

v. eventually, at the same time, you two plucked up the courage to ask the other to sit at a table and read. it was quite a flustering situation; it was the first time he got to hear your voice up close and it was the first time you got a close up look on the famous, younger one of the Black brothers. over time, your relationship and readings together became a semi-cuddle on the common room sofas where you both held a book to read and one of you would eventually find their fingers combing through the other’s hair. many of your house mates saw you two like this and grew curious over how such an odd couple came to be. a unique pairing, indeed. a very true slytherin loving on a slytherin that didn’t really act like one. they grew to accept it eventually. 

vi. the two of you were in denial, however; you two were just good friends. good friends who spent a lot of time together, gifted each other small but meaningful things, who go to the bookstore together while holding hands, who frequently go on picnics by the lake after visiting the kitchens and who cuddle close to each other at every opportunity. It’s all innocent, just like how regulus innocently kisses your temple whenever he greets you and innocently holds your hand on instinct; carrying around a bottle of bruise ointment for your clumsiness. Very innocent indeed, with the way you like to curl up in regulus’s arms for comfort, seeking him out for every little thing, no matter how small, innocent, with how close you like to keep your face close his, how you seem to be the only one to make regulus happy and how he only seems to relax into your arms and nobody else's — he wouldn’t even let others touch him, especially not in the same way you do. 

vii. yes, it’s all very innocent but you two are so perfect together, i can’t see you with anyone else other than our beloved reggie. you two just have to get it together and finally make it official — everyone’s sick and tired of your puppy love, simply because you’re too cute of a couple to even make fun of.

1K MILESTONE EVENT | NAVI.

[lilthya]

this is a very private, canon divergent and highly selective roleplay blog for 𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐇 of the 𝙳𝙸𝙰𝙱𝙻𝙾 franchise. blog is based on theories and current known lore. blog is low-ish activity. ⮚ AFFILIATED: @throned , @diabolem & @palecharm

NOTE: TEMP RULES AND BRIEF MUSE INFO SEEN BELOW ↓

I. please note that this ISN'T BIBLICAL LILITH! this is lilith from the video game series of DIABLO, therefore lore and connections will be different. i am always happy to still work her into interactions with other demons/demonic entities, though! i'm rather flexible, and have no issues plotting/working something out ♡ i'm extremely crossover friendly, and i love original characters.

➤ LILITH is a very powerful demon, she's the queen of the succubi and daughter of MEPHISTO, the lord of hatred.while perhaps not as powerful as her father and the other prime evils ( debateable ) , she's extremely cunning, tactical, and holds many powerful titles which makes her a force to be reckoned with. SHE IS hell royalty. she's the demon that mated with the archangel inarius, birthing not only a new world known as sanctuary ( the mortal realm ) but also the first of the nephalem. she's also 8'5" with her horns, thanks. she has heterochromia, left eye is blue and right is yellow-gold. her direct son is linarian ( rathma ), the child of both her and inarius, he is of first of the nephalem.

II. please don't follow if you're not going to ever interact with any of my posts! i want to keep a clean dash, i'm not here to collect followers or be collected, i'm here to write. i'm also here for friends, my rp partners. they're a priority!

III. i've literally got ZERO time for drama, if you have an issue address it. i don't care enough about online stuff, and have no energy for it. if you don't want to communicate it then keep it to yourself, it's 2023 and majority of the rpc IS well into their 20s. act like it, yeah?

IV. i'm very plot heavy here and will often require some sort of communication ooc? i do enjoy discussion, and want to pick your brain on ideas and perhaps dynamics? i like building bonds with those i write with ♡ only if you're comfy, that is.

V. yes, i love to ship as much as the next person but like the point above.... that's going to require some form of ooc talk. I DO ship her with INARIUS (as drama filled as their relationship is...) i'm a sucker for a good demon & angel romance.

VI. lastly, don't be rude. don't be hateful. any targeted behaviour towards any groups, communities, etc... isn't tolerated here. just don't be disgusting, don't partake in nasty behaviour.

[tahdashi]

ship your moots and assign them a trope?

omg YAY i love these sm :,) gonna do a couple bc brain is slow atm BUT IF YOU'RE A MOOT AND WANT ONE, PLS LMK !!!

i'm gonna give them v niche and specific tropes bc that's what they deserve <3

I. @lotusskiiess and marius!

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ art student!marius x barista!opalie & college au.

opal loves the tranquility of working at the tiny café off campus. not many students go there since they prefer the proximity of the cafes by libraries. and marius, an art student who finds himself frequenting that cafe, likes it for the same reason. because when it's quiet and peaceful, he can hear the sound of her voice when taking orders. he admires her attention to detail when she's decorating drinks. he won't admit it, but his sketchbook has several pages of her. and one day, he'll find the courage to ask her to teach him how to do latté art. but in the mean time, he orders drink after drink to hear opal call his name from the counter.

II. @luvbub and keiji!

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ apartment neighbor!keiji x bub & the neighbors to lovers trope.

on the way back to her apartment, bub notices the door next to her's wide open. odd... no one lives in that apartment. she takes a quick peek only to see a cat walking out of the apartment followed by a tall man with dark hair. he picks the cat up swiftly, apologizing to bub for getting in her way. they introduce themselves, and he invites her in for a drink. he tells her about how he started a new job here and was just settling in, and bold of him, he asks if she'd wanna show him around. and soon enough, akaashi's cat takes a liking to bub's clothing, and he often finds the cat rubbing herself against bub's cozy cardigans. her visits to his apartment have made him realize that he likes the comfort she brings with her.

III. @miya-dynasty and kita!

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ teacher!kita x barista!nhi & coffeeshop au.

nhi always wondered what the man that came in every morning with silly ties did for a living. was he working in an office that had a not-so-serious dress code? or maybe he just had an eclectic style. and every morning, the man ordered a black coffee. nhi started to enjoy his presence — the way he'd always add 2 sugars, take a sip, and smile to himself. one morning, he ordered a slice of cake, asking nhi for a recommendation. "it's for one of my students. he's turning 7 today, and he said his parents don't celebrate his birthday," he rambles. nhi sees the way his eyes light up as he talks about his students, and the next morning, kita buys a slice of cake to share with her.

IV. @kodzukoi and marius!

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ prince!marius x tailor!koi & royal au.

koi was assigned to be the prince's tailor — the one who does all his fittings and designs all his clothes. it was a demanding job, really, because the prince was quite specific with what he wanted to wear and how he wanted people to perceive him. marius liked when koi would knock gently on his door, her sweet voice making its way through the oak doors. he liked when she'd present her designs to him with a proud smile, and truthfully, he'd wear anything she made — the clothes were lucky to be touched so carefully by her hands, marius thinks. he hopes she won't mind when he asks her to take his measurements again, wanting to feel the way her hands dance across his shoulders.

V. @bbiemilk and luke!

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ labmate!luke x coco & the forced proximity trope.

luke and coco have had run-ins with each other, whether he was taking a break from pipetting to get another much-needed coffee or whether she was attempting to look for an empty room to practice her presentation. they shared kind smiles, and luke was often captivated by her eyes (they reminded him of his favorite drink — caramel mochas). one night, they were both staying late to finish up their projects. and unfortunately, they were snowed in. there was absolutely no way they could make it to the bus stop in this weather. so, they kept each other company. luke made coco a hot drink and watched how the reflection of falling snow twinkled in her espresso colored eyes.

QUICK UPDATES ( but not really )

i. i'll be gone for a week or so starting from next tuesday. now... i know this doesn't make any difference since i haven't been active for the past week lol but i've been tackling replies and starters whenever i can find the time. they'll only be moved to my queue when i leave for kr though ( thank you sm for waiting... this is for my own sanity T_T ) 21 done... 924743935 more to go? @_@

[slyveonwrites]

i. please please please do not interact with my account if you’re under the age of seventeen. this blog is probably going to be focused around sexually explicit / mature content, and having a younger audience view my writing makes me a little uncomfortable.

ii. if you decide to drop a request/commission me, i’m pretty much okay writing about every topic! however, there are a few things that i absolutely won’t write about, those being scat, pedophilia/age play, and alpha/beta/omega verse. i reserve the right to refuse anything i feel i can not do justice out of respect.

iii. as of now, i will accept requests on an inspiration standpoint. i'm really tight money wise, and so i will focus on getting commissions out in a timely manner.

iv. i will give any character a shot at writing, however, i am quite rust on male ! reader and mlm so please be gentle as i work on it. i do have a preference for afab bodies, but will write anything.

v. this is the obvious one, but don’t interact if you’re racist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, antisemitic, just fuck off if you are a republican or a 4chan asshole.

COMMISSION INFORMATION BELOW

I reserve the right to refuse a commission.

Due to my horrid schedule and even worse fluctuating inspiration, I will only take five commissions at a time so I can give my full effort and not rush. For others hoping to commission me, a waiting list will be available.

You will get a rough draft in the form of bullet points, to make sure I'm on the right path.

After the final piece is sent, the client may request minor revisions ( spelling/formatting/punctuation ). Major revisions, depending on the greatness of the revision, may cost extra. 

The final work will be posted on my tumblr and/or sent in PDF / Epub / docs format via email. You may repost it wherever you want (as long as it is for non-commercial use only) but you may not remove the byline that includes a link back to my blog (i.e written by Maokomi.) If you prefer that I don’t post it to my social media, please feel free to say so!

Completion time varies according to details of the commission + my own personal circumstances. Expect about 2-7 days (or more) completion time, depending on these factors.

Feel free to ask for updates, but please try not to make them too frequent!

If you have any ideas or scenes or prompts or whatever that you would like me to use as inspiration for the work, please feel free to tell me! They can be super helpful in knowing what kind of vibe you’d like :D the more details / points in the story you have in mind, the better !! moodboard for your oc? hand it over. a fic you read 3 years ago and what something inspired by it? give it. you get my picture.

Hii! If you’re still taking requests for ships, could I please request one with a character from House of the dragon (preferably male but any gender is fine if you think a girl fits better). 🫶🏻

my pronouns are she/her and I’m asexual biromantic. I’m an ESFJ and a Gemini. I have green eyes and short black hair with blue strands, my haircut is similar to a soft mullet. I dress with goth/ fairy grunge clothes. I wear lots of rings and love to exchange them with others.

I’m the mom friend of the group, always there for everyone and my friends say that I’m really good at comforting people. I’m also calm and responsible, I usually am the one that takes care of other people. I’m very optimistic, I always try to see the good in everything and I often put other’s needs before my own, I would do everything for the people I care about and sometimes I’ve been told that I’m too kind for my own good. I have a sarcastic humor and I love making others laugh to lighten the situation, people say that I should be more serious and that I shouldn’t joke around so much.

I don’t like when people tell me what to do and I’m not afraid to stand up for myself or for someone else. I also dislike when someone is too serious and really can’t take a joke as I tend to use humor as my coping mechanism.

All my friends tell me I’m very smart, I get very good grades and I do well in school. I also try to help my friends with study and school as much as possible. I’m also very ambitious, I always try to achieve my goals.

My love languages are physical touch and words of affirmation. I absolutely love listening to music, it helps me relax and I really like reading. I also love watching horror movies even though it’s impossible to scare me. I also play Dungeons and Dragons with my friends anytime I can. also, I absolutely love musicals and I’m definitely a theatre kid.

I really hope I did this right, have a great day :)

you’re quite the selfless character, aren’t you? best be careful letting people in with that heart of gold, we wouldn’t want anyone getting hurt. westeros is dangerous after all. i see you as a lady from the reach, constantly misjudged and underestimated! you’ve a cunning mind and tend to your loved ones like flowers in a garden, you love them wholly and unconditionally. that doesn’t mean you’re not strong and stern when you need to be though.

♡ i ship you with… ♡

♡ Aegon Targaryen III ♡

• We may be living in a man’s world but will be no question of who’s wearing the crown of this relationship! It’s you. Aegon will praise, dote, pamper and love the shit out of you. You’ve changed his perspective on things, loving you is so easy

• On the other hand he isn’t needy as some might think or say. Aegon expects gifts or faux compliments, otherwise kissassery from other people, but with you it’s so authentic. Knowing you’re thinking of him makes him unbelievably happy. Drop off a present, gift him chaste kiss on the cheek or tell him you hope he has a great day and he’s on cloud nine

• There’s obviously challenges to overcome in this relationship. His perspective on love and affection is fucked up at first, transactional if you will. Give things to get things. Yeah, you set him right real quick! Although he needs occasional reminders, Aegon is better off for them

• Aegon matches your personality to a T though he’s not as strong as you. He’s a bit paranoid and needs you to pull him back to the planetos ever now and then

• Defend or protect him some way and he’ll devote himself to you for the rest of his days. He can do that for you or his loved ones easily but coming to his own defense isn’t something he can do just yet

• He wouldn’t need alcohol to have a good time with you, he finds himself smiling or laughing a good portion of the time. Occasionally from one of you something traumatic will slip out, quickly followed by a joke. At first the room will get quiet.. then you’ll both start cackling again. Trauma bonding, it really works

• He didn’t know that simple things could make his heart flutter until he met you. Holding your hand or hugging you from behind is his favorite way to both end and start his day

• Expect compliments, A LOT!

“I believe I saw you while I was with Sunfyre. Your eyes sparkled like emeralds even from the clouds, I couldn’t miss them if I tried.”

Oh! And he will make a spectacle of you, he wants everyone to applaud you when you walk into a room. Aegon thinks you deserve it

“Darling, you look marvelous today. Doesn’t she look absolutely lovely?”

• You two will make a rather handsome couple (aka fucking adorable) Helaena adores you, as much as she can with her non-bug companions. Aemond appreciates your presence his brother is more tolerable when you’re around and Alicent agrees. Not that Aegon wanted or cared about their approval of you, you have it regardless

• Beware, Aegon will make it his mission to try and scare you at least once a day. Especially when he realizes it’s an impossible feat! He’ll get frustrated but not give up, no, he’ll tickle you just to get some sort of squeal out of you

What game are Amarkun and Zaa from :3?

They are from Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II, which is currently on sale on steam at 3.99! It is a very fun game, but I am terrible at anything war related, and so I am still stuck at the Trazyn's early mission on easy.

Those two have so much sass together. You will suddenly find yourself laughing so hard it might hurt.

I don't want to spoil anything, but it is such a great game ! The Inertialess drivers on the necron ships will make you think you are a commander, (although just ramming someone with the Imperial ships is ( ੭ ˘ ³˘)੭‎°｡⋆♡‧₊˚ the BEST). All you need to do on necrons is to ILD your ships into the middle of the enemies, and release all your scarabs, all while your small ships just go *phew phew* from the other side of the map, but maybe you might not want to listen to me, I somehow lost with Settra on easy mode in TWWH III

i do requests but i dont get them often. mostly for profile edits (ie. icons, banners, headers, etc), playlists and maybe art. no guarantee that i will do them though

• you're free to dm me or send an ask if i've accidentally made a mistake in interacting with you. i try to read everyones dni, but sometimes i forget. i try to do the same

• if you'd like, i'd appreciate it if you told me beforehand if you plan on unfollowing or blocking me. i tend to take things in the worst way possible and get serious anxiety about it

• i'm not pr0ship and i dont engage with that drama or either side of it because its stupid.

with that in mind, sometimes my ships may have dark or otherwise uncomfortable themes. most commonly you'll see yandere characters, age gaps between legal adults and openly sadistic characters. if thats your ick then you're free to block whatever tags you need, ask for me to tag things a certain way or unfollow.

• other notable warnings include gore, body horror, sexual(-ish) jokes and clown imagery or related themes.

• a lot of oc x cc. i don't have a lot of canon ships.

Chapter 12/20+ Window Across the Galaxy (new 9/13)

girl falls first; raccoon falls harder.

“So, uh,” he starts quietly. “What’s up between you and Rocket?” She pauses. “Excuse me?” He clears his throat. “Well. You know. It’s clear you both care about each other a lot.” “Yeah,” she says blankly, and if she’s playing dumb, oh well. A girl’s allowed to have her secrets. “He’s my copilot. So what?” “Well,” Pete hedges, “there’s all the little affectionate touches, which he’ll only tolerate from you.” He coughs again, politely. “He calls you sweetheart and doll and princess - and it only sounds like he’s being a dick about it maybe, like, half the time.” She waits, sculpting the hair on the left side of his head. He pauses meaningfully. “And…okay, obviously, you guys share a bunk, even though it’s not - strictly necessary at this point. And…I know Rocket’s room here has the hammock, but Drax said the two of you shared a room on Xandar, even though you both had your own. And those rooms only had one bed apiece. So…” “Pete,” she says slowly. “Peter. Quill. Star-Lord. Brother-of-Mine. Are you asking me if I’m fucking my copilot?”

Chapter XII. So Much It Hurts. in which we try not to fuck up the vibes.

this is a beach episode without a beach (we're just getting from point A to point B here with some blah narrative) sorrryyy

General summary/notes + links to recently preceding chapters behind the cut. let me know via comment, message, or ask if you'd like to be added or removed from my fanfic/headcanon/doodle taglist ♡

General Summary~

Rocket is captured by a Ravager crew hoping to get rich off the excessively large bounty on his head. Throwing a wrench in everyone’s plans is the Terran girl they hired to do some freelance assessing on a recent haul of goods they’ve seized from a Xandaran luxury liner. Oops.

let me be real with you: this fic is really about wish-fulfillment. not just the eventual smut (but that too). mostly i just want someone to be nice to my best raccoon

Chapter I. A Delicacy. in which our reluctant heroes meet atop a crate of Sovereign porn in the bowels of a Ravager ship. Chapter II. Monster For A Pet. in which one hero wrestles with his inner Groot, and the other is quite possibly a moron. Chapter III. A Kindness.in which Rocket gets in his own damn way: not for the first time, and certainly not for the last. Chapter IV. Got There First. in which our heroes obtain an arsenal and street food. Chapter V. Things No-One Has Said Before. in which one hero refuses to babysit and the other refuses to leave. Chapter VI. Two and a Half Billion Units. in which we lean into the “they were roommates” trope. Jolie has misgivings, while Rocket has fantasies - about getting rich, of course. Chapter VII. I'm Here.in which we visit Knowhere. Chapter VIII. The Care & Feeding of Human Pets. in which our heroes practice breathing and we lean into a new trope: “there was (technically) one bed.” Chapter IX. Scrapmetal and a Dream. in which we redefine homemaking. Chapter X. Thin Fucking Ice. in which our heroes get fucked. Not in the good way. Chapter XI. Let It Be. in which Xandar is saved and good lives are lost. Chapter XII. So Much It Hurts. in which we try not to fuck up the vibes. Coming Soon: Chapter XIII. Don’t Wait. in which a lost sister is found and Drax grapples with the concept of sarcasm.

slight AU starting pre-GOTG volume 1 (but will hit most of the same major plot points). slooowww burn + eventual smut with a lot of pining in the middle. kinda enemies-to-lovers? (but only one of these idiots thinks they're enemies). elements of hurt/comfort because rocket is the saddest-angriest boy. rating will go up and tags will be added to as needed.

[dark-roleplay-finder]

22/f here, I'm looking for a semi-lit, 1x1 (or more) discord roleplay based on House of the Dragon! Please be 19/20+ due to mature themes and elements of the story, as well as its source material.

I’m relatively consistent with my posts, very organized and invested in my stories so this is a long-term only ad. I have a standard of 600 words, and though I may go over this fairly often I keep to this limit to avoid burnout between myself and my partners. Additionally, I LOVE OOC communication, raving about storylines, being given plot bunnies and sharing my own because seeing my partner so excited makes me want to match their energy as best as I can.

Whether it’s about the story, the themes we want to write, or just comfort levels; please share whatever you’d like with me because I’ll be happy to discuss and improve with you!

✦ the pitch;

I want to write a slightly younger OC Targaryen against Aemond Targaryen as my main ship. This preference alone features incest, possible* grooming – nothing out of the ordinary for ASOIAF though as a standard, all romancable characters are over eighteen. 

Additionally, I hope to play with the power dynamics that a subjective age gap can bring, and how it could be subverted. I am open to writing other muses as secondary ships/other roles in the story as well.

The storyline will take place during the reign of King Aegon III, focusing on the adult children of the King, princes and princesses scrambling for power after the catastrophe of The Dance of Dragons. This is meant to be a political thriller in a world where the odds are more or less stacked against you; though without a major, house-annihilating war, I hope to delve into the complexities of family and sibling rivalries a little more – as well as their importance against the political machinations and intrigue of the Iron Throne and noble Westeros (with ventures into Essos perhaps?).

There will be some creative liberties here; where multiple characters from Viserys’ reign are still alive, albeit they might be serving fates worse than death (i.e Alicent Hightower), magic and mystery are more prominent and of course, this story will be less restricted in the fantastic department as we build and flesh cultures, and character-driven events which shape the world.

If you’re into DND this is definitely your time to shine! ✨

✦ who i’m looking for;

Please be open to not only creating vivid worlds and experiences with me, but also multi-musing, as there are already quite a bit of character skeletons you can take up. All canons except Aegon’s children are open, and of course, OCs are 1000% welcome! Likewise, I’m also looking to explore intricate relationships, romances, battles and turbulent dynamics.

If this sounds like your kind of roleplay, like this post and I’ll reach out! ♡

[diceedits]

Hi there! I'm Kiri (he/him, cake/cakeself and any sweets-related neos), and this is my edit blog. Requests are closed, and this blog is on (possibly permanent) hiatus.

Before anything else, a fair warning that requests may take a long time, and I often go on unplanned hiatuses. I'm only one person and I have a lot of other responsibilities. Editing is a fun hobby for me :)

Sources

♤ Primarily a Danganronpa blog! (Main 3 games and UDG)

♡ Cookie Run (Kingdom and Ovenbreak)

◇ BNHA

♧ Ensemble Stars

♤ Feel free to ask! I'm willing to edit even for sources I'm not familiar with. I'll probably keep expanding this list as I receive requests.

Edits

♤ Icons (2-4, square or circle)

♡ Stimboards (1, includes a square icon)

◇ Phone Wallpapers (2-4)

♧ Headers (2-4)

Note: I have standard sizes for all of the edits listed above. If you need a specific size, it'll be without any borders. Keep this in mind when requesting.

♤ Sprite edits

♡ Manga coloring

◇ Outfit and accessory moodboards

♧ Video edits (you can request a specific song/audio, or ask for a general mood or aesthetic and I'll come up with something!)

Requests

When requesting, please specify:

♤ Character(s)

♡ Type of edit

◇ Theme (can be a -core, like kidcore or galaxycore, or anything you'd like to see with that character, such as chocolate or bunnies. Or any combination of those!)

Additionally, you can specify:

♤ Color palette

♡ Preferred sprites or expressions

◇ Types of stims (for stimboards)

♧ No food

♤ Cartoony stickers vs realistic images

♡ Ship or platonic (for requests with more than one character)

◇ Matching icons

♧ Anything that will help me understand what you want!

Kins

Doubles are totally fine! I love talking to other kinnies, and doing requests for edits of my kins makes me really happy.

♡ Cookie Run: Custard Cookie III, Squid Ink Cookie, kinsidering Red Velvet Cookie

◇ BNHA: Deku

♧ Enstars: Nazuna, Mayoi, Rei

Blacklist

Aesthetics: Goblincore (similar aesthetics like Gremlincore, Forestcore, and Mushroomcore are fine), Traumacore, Weirdcore, Dreamcore (Sleepcore is fine! But Dreamcore tends to include surreal images and unreality triggers, which I don't like)

DNI

All the basics, really- homophobes/aphobes/transphobes, TERFS/transmeds/truscum, endogenic systems, exclusionists, proshippers, Trump supporters, Blue Lives Matter/anti-BLM

Also, I see Chihiro as a trans girl and I don't appreciate people using he/him pronouns for her. I won't say you can't interact if you do this, but please don't use he/him in reference to Chihiro when requesting, as it makes me uncomfortable.

That's about it! Thanks for reading, and welcome to the blog!!

[keylimejuice]

Key, ya sweetie, ya boss, ya badass, ya awesomest person~ would love to know more about your own zexal prefs~? Do you have another fav beside everyone’s beloved Amnesiac Icicle of Milk? Speaking of The Boi™️, what is your take on how he’d dress as a human or if he were allowed clothes? Headcanons new or old that you adore? Are you a shipper or no? ♡ thnxs ur awesome 👋🥺

(if you're uncomfortable with any of these please u have my permission to catapult them into the sun)

hey Blue!!!! you’re so cool <33 look at you being the grooviest person in the room >:D

awww thanks for the ask!!! lots of zexal questions heehoo, my absolute weakness >:D let’s go!! i wanted to have doodles with this BAHA-

1) any other favorite character other than Astral?

i love Yuma equally as much! i think he’s pretty underappreciated in the general YGO fandom, but he’s such a wonderfully written character aaaa gosh i love him ;v; he’s wonderful <3

never separate the two. all it does is stresses both them and me out OTL

2) what would Astral wear if he turned human/dress up?

if Astral had to dress up huh? hmmm…

i’ve always thought of Astral wearing more baggy or loose clothes similar to that of his home world. as long as they’re loose and comfortable, he’d wear it. he doesn’t mind pants or skirts or dresses or whatever! clothes are clothes

he hates shoes though. i feel like he’d hate them :’D

3) headcanons?

…… oh man oh man i have so many headcanons but here’s three of them:

1. Astral’s right eye is defective and he can’t see much out of it

2. after the show ended, III still lives with Yuma. Yuma also took Astral home after the mission at the end because i refuse to believe that Eliphas is a good master >:( he redeemed himself too quickly

now Akari has THREE little brothers. absolutely off the walls for her

3. Kaito likes strawberry-flavored things

don’t let anyone know though 🤫

4) shipper or no?

not so much anymore! i used to be when i was in middle school but now i don’t really ship much of anything. ships are cool though! 💃

thanks for the ask once again Blue! have a groovy day!

random # munday meme.  ACCEPTING!  ( slow answers )

@duelbooks sent:  33: Do you write endings for your muses or do they only exist within the world of rp? What kind of endings do they have? & 18: What’s one thing you look forward to doing in the future? ♡

33.  In most cases, actually.  While I haven’t set everything in stone for some, figuring out my muse’s future and where their story might ‘end’ ( not necessarily meaning death, but where an author might declare something a final chapter or consider a prime series closing ), etc., is something I think about a lot.  What type of just depends, but I always strive for realism interlaced with the headcanons I write; which my meta sometimes do have hints about certain future events.  Endings always have the possibility to change as my muse encounters different events and meets other characters or even what verse it is?  For example, III marries and eventually adopts when he gets older, but depending on the ship, how many kids changes?  I imagine in gladiatorshiping, Alit and him would adopt way more than my other ship, rosebed ( with my OC ), where he and Florentine may only adopt one or two and then have another by a surrogate mother ( which was how Florentine was carried, for context. )  Different kids with different mindsets and issues as well, which obviously means contrasting parental struggles and challenges lol.  But anyways, differences like that or something else of course mean a varying ending as it affects the characters differently.  Hopefully this all makes sense.

18.  Two things!

Writing again.  I managed to get an earlier appointment not much sooner but I’ll take what I can get and I’m only a few days away from getting to take off the holter too, so I’m hoping for answers soon and to be able to jump back into the rpc because I miss it so much.  I’ve been trying to write headcanons, but either I’m paralyzed by my anxiety or have to stop because of my symptoms, but I am at least proud of the small things I have accomplished in this phase of inactivity.  Still, I just want to be back into the game and there’s so many plots — like the ones we’ve planned — that I’m stoked for!

Seeing my best friend again after this pandemic and when I’m fit to!  We’re practically sisters and trust each other with our lives, and I don’t mean that exaggeratedly.  It’s hilarious though, because we share almost NO interests together and it’s a wonder to a lot of people how we ever became such close friends.  I could gush about her all day honestly.  Unfortunately, she doesn’t have a Tumblr I can tag lol.

Window Across the Galaxy ✧*:･ﾟ updated 10/26

18+ only | rocket x oc | 17/26 Chapters | WIP | Word Count: pending.

girl falls first; racoon falls harder.

His head is down, and she can see the sullen set of his shoulders. Jolie sets Groot onto the floor gently, and he gallops over to his adopted father and climbs onto a couple crates next to Rocket to watch him while he works.  Should she say good morning? Will that just annoy him more? She’s hurt and scared, yes, and even a little annoyed in her more practical moments. But she reminds herself, again, that what this is really a result of - probably, mostly - is Rocket being frightened or wounded, and she doesn’t want him to be alone in that. But he doesn’t exactly look receptive right now. She chews her lip, then winces and shakes her head, and tries to distract herself by doing a quick check on the kitchen cabinets. Most of the dishware is anchored down in the built-in, padded racks that come standard-issue in ships these days, but a few of the plates are chipped on the edges, and one of the new glasses is cracked down the middle. She tosses the glass into the compressor.  All in all, the damage is less than she’d expected, and most things are salvageable. She hesitates, then heads to the hold, peering out into the forest, toward the spaceship Ego left behind.  Rocket doesn’t spare her a glance.

[NEW 10/26] ✧･ﾟ:*Chapter XVII. A Seedling. A Fox. A Little Girl. in which the party is divided.

lots of angst. healing isn't linear but rocket is in a much better position to come back from the consequences of his actions now than he was way back when they were on conjunction. unfortunately there's never enough time for these things, is there ~ ♡
