The Dream Friends are thrust into a murder game! (Simulated. No one's actually dying. >.> )
Now...
...Who fulfills what tropes?!?
First to Die: either Marx or Dedede
Marx because he's a good fit for the "I don't believe this. This is stupid. There's no way this is real." :immediately killed off as an example of the mastermind's seriousness: character. (Or because killing "the funny clown guy" first achieves the same goal.)
Killing Dedede would be the hardcore version of this where you know no one is safe. That said, both of them have a strong claim to the title of Kirby's "rival" so whichever doesn't die is also a shoe-in for that character that is ALWAYS arguing with you in debates. The evidence is RIGHT THERE! You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?!?
- [Continued Below] -
Meta Knight is your support character who does all the complex mystery solving for you till they get removed toward the end of the game. Same with Magolor, except for the opposite side. Magolor is the one who is never completely trustworthy but still guides you to the logical answers with his trickery. These two almost assuredly die together-ish in the same late-game chapter, pitted against each other by the mastermind to isolate Kirby. On Magolor's side, he will probably be trying to make amends for messing up badly and causing someone to get killed accidentally earlier.
Bandee is an end-game survivor. You just know he is. Adeleine is either another survivor or dies in a middle chapter shock death because you had every reason to assume she was safe until she wasn't. May also be one of those characters who slowly breaks down and loses her spirit as things go on, being a completely different character at the end of the game. Especially if Ribbon dies at any point. (If Adeleine dies first and the killerĀ didn'tĀ get Ribbon too, Ribbon will absolutely go ballistic on someone else later on.)
One of the two, Flamberge or Francisca, doesn't make it to the end. Tight knit pairs like these always get split up. Flam seems to need Fran more, so I'm going to assume it's Fran that gets the deep freeze (ohoho...) requiring Flam to both be held back from destroying the place in her rage and slowly learn to be on her own. Zan is a good fit for the rules lawyer character always trying to wrangle the group who is pushed into breaking her own code (probably for Hyness.)
Rick, Coo, and Kine are the quirky background chatter group who all (?) die in the same chapter when the stakes start getting really bad. Gooey survives till the end 100% because you need that one person whoĀ cannotĀ follow the logic behind the mystery to save their life and has to have things explained to them but you still love them.
Elfilin is almost perfect for that innocent character that can do no wrong until you realize...oh no, they've been tricked into being responsible for a murder and there's nothing you can do to save them. Goes gracefully to their fate, wishing everyone the best...
Susie is one of those characters who isn't making it past chapter two. (Sorry, Susie! You're still great!) By process of elimination, Taranza probably gets to be the "last boy" sole survivor of Wave 3. But also for being smart enough to keep his head down when everyone else is being idiosyncratic. (Plus just actually having no murderous intent.)
Daroach voted most likely to seem like a reliable, funny friend for most of the game, only to be revealed as a wicked murderer later on only to THEN be revealed to have done the murder for the greater good of the rest of the party. Cue tears. (Aka, "the Gundham")
Dark Meta Knight is the biggest wild card. He could either be 1) the requisite asshole victim/patsy in someone else's scheme 2) the jerk killer without a sympathetic motive that makes you question if any of you are going to make it out of here alright 3) the one guy who is belligerent and nasty and unhelpful but won't just kill anyone and get it over with, only to step in at end to fill MK's empty shoes at a critical moment, saving the party 4) that guy who never really did anything good or bad and you cannot BELIEVE he made it to the end! Nooo! All my favorites died~! Why are you still here, you jerk~?! /affectionate
--TLDR--
[Survivors] Wave 0: Bandee Wave 1: Gooey Wave 2: DMK and/or Adeleine Wave 3: Taranza Wave 4+: Flamberge
[Potential Survivor] Dedede/Marx
[Murderers] Meta Knight, Daroach, Zan, Elfilin, Ribbon*
[Victims] The AF, Magolor, Susie, Francisca
*If Adeleine dies

š¦¾ WINTERHAWK RECS š¹
@bl0ssomized asked for some winterhawk fic recs & i took that as my sign to finally sit down, go through my 500+ bookmarks and provide y'all with my fav fics <3 if you end up reading/enjoying any of these, PLEASE make sure to leave a comment on ao3, the authors deserve all the nice words in the world!!
about this list:
most of these fics are pretty popular in the fandom, so this list is more directed at new fans just joining the winterhawk paradise!! (there's a lot on here tho, so maybe you find one you haven't read yet)
mika/bee asked for little to no smut, so i'm not gonna rec any pwp works here (with a few exceptions). if you want smut recs, hmu tho, i got y'all
there's obviously still smut in many of these fics, but i tried to tell you if it's important/skippable or not. if you don't mind smut i obviously recommend reading it bc GOD these authors just know their shit, but i think nobody should miss out on the amazing long fics just bc they don't like smut :)
i put a "notes" section for every fic where i just yap about it and/or my feelings towards it for a bit bc i literally can't shut up about these two guys.
alright, i think that's all, let's go!! pls tell me if i messed up the links somwhere :)
50k+ wordsĀ
Lucky In Love by dr_girlfriendĀ
words: ~60kĀ
important tags: no powers AU, oh my god they were roommates!, friends to lovers, mutual piningĀ
notes: every time i give winterhawk recs to a new fan i start with lucky in love, bc even tho itās an AU, it has soo many of the typical winterhawk tropes i love so much. PLUS: roomates. and lucky. and every chapter is titled āaw, [something], noā and i find that way too funny to not mention. idk itās just one of that fics that gives me the warmest & fuzziest of warm fuzzy feelings and i think everyone should read it.Ā
smut: even tho it has the wonderful, wonderful tag ānot gonna tag every sex act just trust me thereās plentyā, thereās actually not that many. in my opinion, the perfect amount for a 60k, 21 chapters winterhawk fic. itās quite a slow-burn, so theyāre only in the later chapters anyway, and the build up to it is soOoo good. this is one of the fics where i know exactly where to find the smut scenes so feel free to hmu.Ā
Like Real People Do by Kangofu_CB
words: ~67kĀ
important tags: āi actually just wanted to watch these two idiots fall in love in a secluded cabin okā; civil war fix itĀ
notes: no one, NO ONEĀ gets me like this fic, it checks like every single one of my boxes. perfection. not lying when i say itās my favorite fic of all time. it doesnāt have a special premise or anything, but thatās the good thing about it. itās just soā¦ cozy. comfy. feels like home. i canāt even remember if like real people do is my favorite hozier song because of this fic or if itās my fav fic bc like real people do is my fav hozier song, but i know that i never cried as hard as i did when i heard lrpd live and could only think about this fic. nothing makes me feel as good as re-reading this story, i want to eat it.
smut: yes, but only like 2,5 scenes. hmu and i tell you the exact fucking paragraph number or smth, this fic is literally engraved in my soul. thank you CB. some day iāll leave a 2k words comment on every single chapter.Ā
The Other Man out of Time by sara_holmesĀ
words: ~97kĀ
important tags: time travel, falling in love, clint barton centricĀ
notes: okay, objectively speaking: this is the best winterhawk fic in existence. not my absolute favorite bc it makes me cry too much, but definitely top 3. no other winterhawk fic made me sob this hard, no other winterhawk fic makes me wanna curl up on the floor and cry for an hour every time i think about it. that being said: IT HAS A HAPPY ENDING!!! and a lot of stuff in between is SO sweet as well. premise is basically: clint travels back in time and fights in wwii alongside bucky and they fall in love. and then bucky!canon happens. you get it? you get it. itās- UGH itās so good. jesus. iām crying.Ā
smut: a few short sexy scenes i think, but no SMUT smut, and itās definitely definitely DEFINITELY not the focus of the story. canāt emphasise enough how much everyone should read thisĀ
Hipsters get Remembered, Legendās Never DieĀ by sara_holmes
words: ~90kĀ
important tags: millennial bucky barnes, awesome clint barton, recoveryĀ
notes: millennial bucky is one of the most entertaining things fandom came up with, and this fic is the epitome of that trope. love love LOVE. plus, clintās really fucking awesome in this.Ā
smut: yes, but only like two or three times in 11 chapters, easily skippable
Puzzle Pieces (series) by sara_holmesĀ
words: ~446kĀ
important tags: steve/tony, kid fic, emotional hurt
notes: if you donāt like stony this one isnāt for you, just skip to next one :) if you like stony: GOD pls read puzzle pieces!! the first 200k words fic is stony focused and has only pre-slash winterhawk, but even tho they donāt get together in this one yet itās literally one of my favorite clint/bucky portrayals of all time, no one gets them like sara, itās perfect. the stony/kid fic storyline is SO amazing as well, so if thatās your cup of tea, check. it. out. after that theyāre a few longer winterhawk instalments, and while some of them are really angsty and painful, thereās always a happy ending. god i need to re-read this entire thing. it makes me wanna cry and throw up in all the good ways.Ā
smut: some, but you can definitely skip it.
Iāll keep you safe here with me by sara_holmesĀ
words: ~110kĀ
important tags: kidnapping, PTSD, mind control aftermath & recoveryĀ
notes: ngl i havenāt read this one in a long time, but everything by sara is perfect and this oneās one of the most kudoād winterhawk fics, so itās basically a must read. everyone needs to read a good clint & the winter soldier fic at least once
smut: itās rated mature, so no really explicit smut. canāt remember if they donāt get a bit horny tho.
A Heart Worth Loving by Kangofu_CBĀ
words: ~82kĀ
important tages: soulmate AU, no powers AU, modern bucky barnes, forced cohabitationĀ
notes: GOOD FUCKING SOUP. soulmate au AND they were roommates????? beat that. it takes them ages to figure out theyāre soulmates, which makes this equally amazing and frustrating, but itās all so so worth itĀ
smut: yes, at the end of it. you CAN skip it, although i recommend skimming through it and read the dialogue parts and stuff.Ā
if you were a mythical thing by Kangofu_CB
words: ~75kĀ
important tags: teachers au, kid fic, werewolvesĀ
notes: quick story time for this one bc i remember it so so well lmao: winterhawk olympic bang 2022, most authors had started to post their fics except for CB and i KNEW she had written one, and i was literally checking my emails every hour for days. and then she finally posted it and i already started screaming when i saw the taylor lyrics as a title, and then i read those three tags and literally had to sit on my floor for 20 minutes to calm down bc i was so excited. i remember posting like 20 stories on my private insta that were just me keysmashing lmaoo. idk but teachers + kid fic + werewolves is just such a BONKERS combination, and i can promise youāre in for a treat, itās so so fun. 15/10.Ā
smut: yes, but it takes some time to get there and itās skippable
Adventures in dogsitting by Call_Me_KayyyyyĀ
words: ~53k
important tags: friends to lovers, dogsitting, piningĀ
notes: another olympic bang fic, thank you. cute, fun, lots of lucky content :) good soupĀ
smut: NO SMUT
Under My skin (series) by finely honedĀ
words: ~360k
important tags: Steve/Tony (the āmainā instalment is stony focused), PTSD, Life after the army, AU - Tattoo ParlourĀ
notes: the āfirstā instalment is a stony fic (one of my all time favs honestly) but with a lot of amazing side-winterhawk, and thereās a winterhawk spin-off, thatās a prequel to the stony arc, so you can just read that first if you want. it was one of the first english winterhawk fics iāve ever read and it always makes me wanna cry when i think about it (in a good way).
smut: theyāre quite horny in both big instalments, but i would say the smut is skippable. itās not un-important for both the winterhawk and the stony dynamic tho, so i wouldnāt recommend doing that
This is Not a Date, itās a Kidnapping by sara_holmesĀ
words: ~50kĀ
important tags: Fake Kidnapping, also real kidnapping, Bucky Barnes recovering, fake relationshipĀ
notes: all sara_holmes is good sara_holmes, but this oneās one of my favs, itās just so fun. GOD i miss winterhawk olympic bang 2021, this was such a blast to read when it first came out!!Ā
smut: NO SMUT
Freedomās Reach by dr_girlfriendĀ
words: ~68kĀ
important tags: arranged marriage, western/historical AU, slow burnĀ
notes: aaaand anotherĀ winterhawk olympic bang 2021 fic! pretty sure this one was my fav during the bang, like i remember hitting up a friend of mine and screaming at each other for like an hour every time a new chapter dropped, we were SO invested. very good soup.Ā
smut: yes, but itās a sloooow build, so itās only in the later chapters. pretty sure itās easily skippableĀ
ghost in the machine by squadrickchestopher
words: ~75kĀ
important tags: fake character death, heavy angst, ghosts, lonelinessĀ
notes: UGHHHH clint ādiesā, becomes a ghost and only bucky can see him. touch starved clint final boss basically. amazing shit. painful shit. (happy ending tho)Ā
smut: itās rated explicit and itās by squaddy, so iām like 99% sure thereās smut, i actually canāt remember tho lmaoĀ
Bartonās Halfway House for Ex-Brainwashed Assassins (series) by Kangofu_CBĀ
words: ~90kĀ
important tags: the slowest burn, the mcu reimagined completely, accidental baby acquisition, found family, kid fic
notes: this oneās an ongoing series, and itās such an amazing one, you can feel all the love thatās been put into this. you have to go through like 60k of slow burn before winterhawk actually happens, but itās soooo worth it. plus: kid fic. kid ficās always good.Ā
smut: yes, but only in the 3rd part and the short pwp oneshot. easily skippable
something magic, something tragic by squadrickchestopherĀ
words: ~55k
important tags: supernatural elements, vampire bucky, enemies to loversĀ
notes: VAMPIRES!!! that should be enough to convince you to read this fic!! and itās by squaddy, it literally canāt be bad if itās by squaddy.
smut: ughhh not entirely sure, pretty sure the mature rating is mostly for violence, but, again, itās squaddy, so itās very possible thereās some sexy stuff hiding in there.
Sweet Home Was Home by there_must_be_a_lockĀ
words: ~110kĀ
important tags: āi sorta made my own franken-canonā, christmas fluff, soft feelings
notes: i found this one on accident once when i wasnāt really expecting to find another PERFECT long ass winterhawk fic i havenāt read yet, and then i binge-read it in one night, and itās honestly one of the best iāve ever read, itās so so soft andā¦ healing. for both bucky and clint and myself. itās really not as popular as it should be imo, definitely worthy of a place on the first page of the ship tag!! highly HIGHLY recommend checking it out!!Ā
smut: yes, but skippableĀ
10k - 50k wordsĀ
Starving for the Light by thepartyresponsibleĀ
words: ~45kĀ
important tags: magic AU, soul bondĀ
notes: jesus christ i wanna eat this fic so bad. definitely my favorite 2021 winterhawk olympic bang fic, itās just THAT good. need to re-read it entirely to make sure, but i think itās in my top 10 if not top 5 fav winterhawk fics of all time. clintās just soā¦ beautiful in this, idk how else to describe it. and idk, it has a such a unique premise and setting, i love everything about it.Ā
smut: yes, but skippable.Ā
Historic Features by flawedamythyst
words: ~19k
important tags: ghosts AU, homophobic violenceĀ
notes: oooohhh my god, donāt make me think about this fic iām gonna cry. itās actually pretty fun and cute and fucking awesome, but clint & buckyās backstory in this?? iām ugly crying, leave me alone. premise is basically: theyāre ghosts and haunting the apartment they died in years ago, scaring everyone who tries to live there out of it. then steve and tony wanna move in. itās fucking great.Ā
smut: NO SMUTĀ

important tags: no powers AU, coronovirus lockdown, long distance flirtingĀ

smut: thereās quite a bit of sexting & phone sex, plus a smut scene at the end. doesnāt take up the entire fic tho, and the rest is worth it as well.Ā
Behind Bars by sara_holmes and Behind Bares (On The Other Side Remix) by flawedamythystĀ
words: ~32k (sara), ~25k (amy)

smut: canāt remember what itās like in saraās version, but itās only rated mature soo... thereās definitely one or two smut scenes in amyās fic, but easilyyy skippable, only like a few handjobs or smth i think.

Ah, Young Love! [Our Life: Now & Forever]
Fandom: Our Life: Now & Forever
Characters: Qiu Lin, Tamarack Baumann
Notes: takes place during Step 1, so he/him is used for Qiu as that is how he identifies at this point in the story!
So anyway I'm obsessed with how everybody wants Qiu but Qiu only has eyes for MC once they meet so I'm thinking about his silly little boyhood crush. And then I couldn't leave best girl Tamarack out of the love fest so here's just a few little things I was thinking about with them having childhood crushes on u <3
Note that only the demo is publicly available and I am not currently a patron so anything here that is proven true is coincidence and anything proven false is just me having a little fun
Qiu Lin
So like. I've seen Qiu call you pretty twice in the demo. Once when you meet him if you choose to call him pretty first, and again towards the end of what's available in the demo when he's listing off reasons why you should be allowed to join the club..
I just think that whenever he talks about you he always has to let it slip that he thinks you're cute. "They had on a really nice hair clip today!" "Their hair looked so cute when they took off their hat at school." "When I picked them up to walk to school, I was so surprised at how pretty they looked!"
When he told his parents about you he probably said "this really pretty kid surprised me in our yard and we went on a miniature adventure!"
Also (and note that my MC uses she/her so im gonna quote him using gendered terms but only for this one instance) When he's introducing you to one of his friends, he starts off with your name and says "she's a girl!" (Or whatever terms you have set)
So I just think he says the most basic facts about you with so much awe and wonder š„ŗ like you wore overalls to school? He talks like you invented denim. You had a funny comment or joke? It's like he's never heard one before in his life when he retells it.
I feel likeā¦the first thing that makes him interested in you is that you're new. Not only does this make you fun to mess with, but it makes you far more interesting than the people he's known his whole life. Plus you, unlike Tamarack, don't immediately brush off the cool things he wants to show you or do with you if it isn't immediately your cup of tea.
Darren and Baxter are sick and tired of hearing your name !! If you're not around Qiu wonders aloud at least once if he should or should've invite(d) you. If he did invite you and you had to decline, then he wonders what you're doing.
The type of kid to skip out on his weekend chores at home and go to your house to help you unpack instead
Ok so MC says they used to live in an apartment, right? Probably in the city? And MC was only allowed to play on their own because Golden Grove is "a safe neighborhood?" What if MC doesn't know how to ride a bike. What if Qiu teaches themā¦
Whether you get a hang of it or not, he daydreams about doing that thing where he rides the bike and you sit backwards on the seat or on the handlebars or something
When he finds out you can't ride a bike, he definitely shows off by riding around without his hands on the handlebars.
Will teach you how to jump off the swing set too, then will have competitions over who can swing the highest and leap the farthest
I feel like Golden Grove has a cute little main street with a bunch of locally owned shops. If you're interested, he'll show you every. single. business. Even if most of them are "granny shops" he isn't interested in. He'll let you poke around for a bit :)
He has a special page in his notebook for all the little notes and doodles about you
If you look closely at the note he gives you after class, you can see the remnants of a few tiny little hearts that he erased!!
Going back to him offering you to ride on his bike: he probably got you in trouble once because you were on your front lawn and he rode up asking you to go on an adventure with him on his bike. You're expecting a fun little 20 min ride through the walkable path in the woods that'll have you back home by dinner. Instead he takes you to town and buys you ice cream and the two of you have to struggle your way back up the hill on foot and it takes like an hour and a half to get back and your mom was worried SICK
Buys a pack of pens with one/some of your favorite color(s) and writes you notes exclusively in that/those ink(s)
If you and your mom go somewhere and he knocks on your door while you're out, you will come home to see him sitting on the steps to your front porch and waiting for you
Before class starts, he always gives you a funny face or a wave. If you come in late because of a doctor's appointment or something, naturally a lot of the kids turn to look at your entrance, and he immediately waves at you. Maybe even says hi to you out loud if he knows Mrs. Murray is in a good mood / he can get away with it.
If he finishes his work early or something, he'll turn around in his seat and just watch you from across the room with major heart eyes. He smiles wider and waves when you notice.
Anything you compliment him on, he immediately draws attention to around others. Say his hair looks good today? He'll hit you with a "oh but not every other day?" but then tell his seatmates about what you said.
Buys extra portions of his little snack bags of chips and candy or whatever he likes when he can so that he can give them to you during lunch.
Gets on a kick and will pester you about having a secret handshake until you let him come up with one. He likes having special things just you and him š„ŗ
Probably invites you to his hideout at a specific time and day every week and he gets soooooo excited for that time to roll around.
Tries extra hard in your favorite subject, even if it's one he hates. He's not trying to be top of the class, but he doesn't want you to think he doesn't care about something you care about!
If you like a class he's terrible at, he'll ask for your help! Or, if you struggle in a class he's good at, he'll volunteer to help you out even though he HATES the concept of doing extra schoolwork. That's how much he likes u
He'll do this with any windows but especially if one of your bedroom windows faces his: he will definitely pull a Taylor Swift in "You Belong With Me" and write notes for you guys to read to each other
Since he can't sit with you, he'll write you notes or make you doodles and then pretend he has to get up to sharpen his pencil so he can pass your desk and slip it to you
Tamarack Baumann
Tamarack will straight up just stare at you šš
She follows you around like a lost puppy and visibly brightens up when you're around
Looks forward to school because she gets to sit next to you all day! Like she'll skip happily along the path with you and Qiu and you'll ask her if she's looking forward to all these things and she'll just go "No!" and when you finally give up and ask why she says "because I get to spend the whole day next to you!"
When she goes to play in the woods, sometimes she'll spend a while in the shallower end of the tree line waiting to see if you'll come outside and play with her
Has definitely thrown sticks and pebbles at your back door to lure you out before she gets bored
Likes to go around and pick up the coolest rock, the prettiest flower, the biggest piece of tree bark, a leaf the size of her headā¦then before she goes home for the night, she stops by your house and gives what she picked up to you!!
If you're not home then she leaves it on your porch with a note, usually held down by a rock if it's not something heavyĀ
She'll be over the moon if you give her cool rocks and stuff you found. Even if you're literally giving her trash, like if you ONLY give her bottle caps or pop tabs you find on the sidewalk, she cherishes them. Would make jewelry out of them tbh
Ok so quick tangent but there's a book I read in about 4th grade called Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli, and in it the love interest girl is the quirky type. One thing she has is a little decorative cart on her dresser which she puts rocks in every time she's happy and takes rocks out when she's sad. When the protag goes to her house and finds out, she explains how she has put the most rocks in it since meeting him. They kiss sometime after that and she puts another rock in and tells him about it. I think Tamarack would have a jar or a doll house bathtub and she would do the same thing, putting rocks in it when she's happy! So what I'm saying is give her plenty of rocks so she can exclusively use MC rocks for thatĀ
Also will make matching jewelry for the two of you without even stopping to think if you even wear what she's making. She'll buy kits to make special rings and headbands, braid a million friendship bracelets out of multicolored string, use acorns she found to make earringsā¦anything! She is just as happy if you wear it then she is if you buy a jewelry display stand and show them off in your room. Eventually she adds keychains into the mix for some variety
Doesn't mean to spend a lot of her time waiting on you but she does. On weekends, instead of going directly into the woods, she'll just lie on her back in her yard and stare up at the clouds, completely still, daydreaming (about you) until she hears your door opening. Then she runs to you.
If any of your windows are open, particularly your bedroom window, she'll send a bunch of paper airplanes your way. Most of them make it! However, you've learned that if you find even one paper airplane inside, you're going to have to check that side of the house for more scattered on the ground
Grips onto your arms or your clothes whenever she can. You two are connected.
Makes a BIG effort to like anything that you like as much as you do! And when she follows you around, it doesn't really matter if you're doing something she doesn't care about. She just wants to spend time with you! It does make her whole week if you follow her into the woods, though.
She doesn't take notes in class, but you leave a writing implement out for her and sometimes she'll reach over and doodle a cute bear or something on your paper :)
If you say you're cold, she'll give you her scarf, no questions asked. Is also down to share but don't let her do that while you're walking because it WILL end badlyĀ
Has wrapped the scarf around the two of you and tied you guys together before and yes it was the best recess of her lifeĀ
When walking, she tends to lean into you which sometimes almost turns into pushing you and Qiu into the road if you're not careful
Likes to drag you around places and pretty quickly invites you to her house. She doesn't tell her grandparents that she's inviting you over, so they're surprised by you almost every time, but they don't mind! She's dragging you up the stairs to her room too quickly for them to say anything anyway

some minor candies dumped together.
my motto is that some bits in this fandom seem small sometimes but you will never know when it will be useful to piece things together in the future.
letās start with this. HAHAHAHAHA! i always love the contrast between them. zz all cutesy and sweet then you have yibo in a supposed cute fit but that serious face. i love them please! š„¹š„¹š„¹š„¹
moving on to the lovely this or that video released by jimmy choo on their instagram. he was asked whether he prefers skateboards or bike. i guess itās a no brainer that he will answer skateboard because that has always been his passion but for some reason he answered bikes. maybe heās doing another thing related to it that we know nothing about.
but it makes us think of another person who loves to go biking. thinking about them doing this activity together as a form of exercise is nice!
maybe we are overthinking it the way we usually do but itās so out of the expected yibo answer. ļæ½ļ潚»āāļø plus knowing how prominent a ābikeā pops up in xz vlogs. actually, even in the ideal life painting you have a bike.
speaking of jimmy choo, that had itās own clownery in on itself. lol. these poses from our boys:
Iām so so proud of them for being global brand ambassadors from these brands and continuing to dominate c-ent in their own way/s. with little to no scandal. and how their photos always seem to match. i swear itās not just the cpf in me that sees these and goes they look good together. they really do even if you are a passerby.
of course xzs and ybo have to join in and give us some sweets. both of the caption saying letās startā¦ // letās listen.. so in that way itās similar. and you have that emoji. at this point the way these two teams seem to have the same posting style is not new. adding this to the very long list š
this one is my favorite. so lately, ybo has been posting these sort of postcards to promote ETU. largely with actual snaps from the show which are obviously provided by the production team. but this one photo released seems so special cause itās an artwork. and yes, a huge part of this is because iām a cpf and gg as yiboās personal artist has always been a headcanon truth among us.
however, look ā¬ļøā¬ļøā¬ļø
it seems to have that same style/feel as xzās previous works. that almost whimsical feel and how itās colored.
fans even did an edit. do you see it now? āØ
-END.
#yizhan#bjyx#there is no science here iām just clowning like i always do#i will move on to the livestream clues later pls bear with me HAHAHAHAHA

The Blue Exorcist Fandom has no media literacy
I keep seeing takes where people say "Rin's friends are bad friends and are fake. They shouldn't have gotten upset at Rin for learning he's the son of satan" and it makes me angry. These are children. 15-16 years of age. Many of their lives have been ruined by Satan. OBVIOUSLY, they're gonna be kinda upset. They aren't gonna have a mature reaction. Plus. They got over it pretty quickly. ALSO ALSO, the latter half of season 1 isn't canon. None of that shit happened in the manga. It's all made up. They didn't react like that. Their real reaction was the Kyoto saga. Also. Rin isn't an uwu soft boy who can do no wrong. And I'm tired of people acting like he is. Yes, I love him too. He's one of my favorites. BUT, he isn't innocent. He DOES have dangerous powers that he needs to learn to control. I'm so tired of the blue exorcist fandom acting like they never watched the show or read the manga. OH AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON YUKIO. You can not like him all u want. But you can't say he hates his brother. You just can't. They both love each other. They both are jealous of each other. And. Quick spoiler warning. YUKIO LITERALLY TRIES TO OFF HIMSELF. HE DOES DANGEROUS ASS TRAINING BC HE FEELS INFERIOR TO RIN. Omg. And yeah. He joined the Illuminati. Betraying them. Yeah. That's BAD. But people act like he's a disgusting roach just bc he treats Rin badly at times. Like. Omg. Not everyone can like Rin. Not every character NEEDS to like him. That's what makes stories interesting. I'm not a Yukio apologist or whatever. I'm just tired of the mischaracterization.
Anyways. That's all.

You usually never do this.
āThisā involves scrolling through social media and reaching the bottom of a pit dug so deep youāve lost the measurement of its depth.
Some pictures of you and your ex-girlfriend from over four years ago from your college days resurfaced. You donāt know how that happened, considering how you and your ex-girlfriend always only had private socials back then, and you werenāt known for being associated with any sort of celebrity at all.
Unlike now, when you are known as Outer Banks actor Drew Starkeyās girlfriend. Drew Starkey: one of the emerging faces in Hollywood. He seems to be gaining more and more traction each day, especially leading up to the release of his movie āQueerā.
With his ever increasing fame, you are also becoming more and more well known. You and Drew donāt have a secret relationship, but itās quite private. Firstly Drew isnāt active on his socials, and secondly, youāre only seen when you are Drewās plus one for the different events heās invited to.
Due to such scarce presence on social media and in real life, each time you and him are spotted, even a single photo tends to go extremely viral in Drewās fandom. Headlines likeāRare: Drew Starkey seen with his girlfriend on the streets of Parisā, āDrew and his girlfriend seen getting cozy in a snug Parisian cafĆ©ā etc. get extremely common, and informal captions like āoh my godddddd drew and his girlfriend! so cuteā, ādrew and y/n spotted drew and y/n spotted drew and y/n spottedā are also just as common.
As much as you adore Drew and his dedication to his art, you still arenāt used to the microscopic attention you get each time you and him are seen together. You feel like youāre being judged by every single eye, and they arenāt essentially thinking the best things regarding you.
Even though what you mostly see are sweet comments complimenting you and Drew, a hate comment or two does sneak its way in among the positive ones, which doesnāt essentially surprise you because you know fandoms tend to get possessive over their idols; and Drewās fandom isnāt any different. Youāve learnt to accept it and ignore it, even though sometimes it does nag you in the back of your mind, Drew always helps you feel better and helps to get your mind off them until you practically forget you ever even read them.
But this time, this time, you fear the situation is a little out of hand.
With the photos resurfacing and the source being entirely anonymous, you arenāt seeing the best comments under the pictures. Some fans have dug so far in your life to figure out youāve only dated girls before Drew, creating the assumption youāre actually a lesbian. Some claim youāre with Drew for his money, because your dating history is only girls, and itās āweirdā now that youāre with a man. Some claim you as a toxic partner, and say you have Drew completely fooled. You even saw a few āsavedrewā hashtags in the comments, but thank goodness it didnāt end up becoming an active trend.
Due to the privacy of your relationship, you never came out publicly that youāre bisexual, but your friends and family, and Drew, are fully aware about your sexuality because you are completely out to them. Drew has always appreciated you the same, before he knew you were bisexual and after he knew you were bisexual. His love for you was never impacted by your coming out, and he knows it never will.
You shut your phone and keep it aside, taking a deep, shaky breath as you look up at the ceiling of your shared hotel room with Drew. You can feel a few tears stinging the corners of your eyes, and you let your eyelids fall shut, the small tears silently starting to roll down your cheeks.
Your blurry vision trains over to the closed bathroom door from where you can hear the shower running, knowing Drew is getting ready for your night out with him. You both are in Italy as a simple vacation before Drew has to go back to LA and begin working on some upcoming projects, and itās your first night in the country, for which youāve decided to have authentic Italian gelato as an after dinner treat.
You can practically hear the comments you have read in your head, all of them getting progressively worse. You know you arenāt using Drew for his money, and Drew knows that too, yet the comments and watching an entire fandom side against you was starting to get to you.
Your thoughts are cut through smoothly when you hear Drew stepping out of the washroom after his shower, a towel tied neatly around his waist.
āYou ready?ā He asks you sweetly as he gets some clothes to wear.
You nod at him and watch him finish getting ready for your little night out as you sit there, pushing the ugly comments as far as you can in your head.
Drew gets ready in a few minutes and you both leave your hotel, walking out on the cobblestoned streets of the beautiful city, letting the streetlights and lamp posts enlighten your path for you.
You both walk in silence with your hand perfectly intertwined with his, your gaze fixed down at your shoes and the way they clack against the cobblestones. Drew notices you being quieter than usual, and he feels tempted to ask you whatās on your mind, because the last thing he ever wants to see is you feeling sad or bothered by something in any sort of way.
But before Drew can even think of acting on his thoughts, you both are forced to turn your heads around when you hear shouts of Drewās names being called. Your eyes fall on a group of youngsters, and the moment they grab Drewās attention, they yell out more sounds of excitement, ushering over to him.
He laughs affectionately when heās surrounded by the small group of the fans, causing you to be pushed just a little to the side; something youāve gotten the hang of because you know the fans are essentially here to see him, and not you. So you decide to take a couple steps back and watch Drew interact patiently with everyone, letting them take pictures and videos with him as he talks and signs their shirts, books etc. for them.
You can see a young girl and a boy from the group constantly giving you a side eye as you decide to distract yourself with your phone after you take a picture or two of Drew meeting the group. You canāt lie, the side eyes seem quite judge-y to you and you feel yourself fidgeting under their gaze.
But it gets worse when they speak within themselves but itās loud enough that you catch it, and Drew catches it.
āSheās still with him?ā The girl says to the boy who just rolls his eyes.
āDrew clearly didnāt catch the message,ā the boy mumbles, and your eyes dart over to Drew who was signing a girlās cap but stopped at the words. You catch the look in his eyes; itās the look of protectiveness, possessiveness and anger all mixing in one ā a very dangerous combination to be seen in Drewās usually warm blue eyes.
āWhat did you say?ā Comes his voice. Itās low, monotone, and carries a very heavy drift of coldness. The sudden deep words cause everyone to fall silent, especially the boy and the girl, whoās eyes widen when they realize Drew has his gaze zeroed on them.
āN-nothingā¦ā the boy stammers, and you can see both the girl and boy have their pulse quickening more and more with each passing second.
You can see how scared they are starting to get, and you quickly rush over to Drewās side, your fingers curling around his bicep in that all too familiar way; the way you use when Drew gets slightly more angry than he should and is on the verge of blowing up.
This touch of yours always causes him to start to calm down, but this time, he isnāt even close to relaxing. You can see his muscles are tensing even more as he glares at the boy and the girl.
āDrew pleaseāā you begin to speak slowly, your fingertips starting to dig into his bicep but he ignores you.
āNo, I want to hear them repeat what they said.ā He mutters through gritted teeth, his attention fixed on the boy and the girl. āWhat did you say about my girl? āWhy is she still with me?ā Why wouldnāt she still be with me huh?ā
The girl and the boy fall completely silent, and so does the entire group. They get completely nervous under Drewās cold gaze, all of them looking any other way but at Drew or you.
āNow I donāt know what that was about,ā he begins, ābut I better not hear more of that bullshit alright?ā His words come out disdainful, his entire body stiff as you feel his bicep tighten under your grip.
With one scoff he takes your hand which is around his bicep in his own hand and pulls you away from the group. āCome on letās go baby,ā he says, not looking even once at the group as he leads you away from them.
Once you both are out of their earshot, he turns around in a small alleyway and stops you both right there.
āDonāt listen to them bubs, please donāt,ā He mumbles softly, his hand coming up to your cheek to gently caress your skin. āYou know itās all just bullshit, their jealousy is bullshit,ā
You let out a soft sigh as you feel his fingers softly trail over your cheek. This is what he always tells you when you encounter the common hate you tend to get for being with him, but this time, you know it was for an entirely different reason.
āThis was different Drew,ā you mutter, your gaze fixed down at your shoes, your fingers fiddling with each other.
Drewās eyebrows furrow at your words. āDifferent? Different how?ā
You take a deep breath and exhale it out from your nose as you train your gaze up to meet his. āMy old pictures with my ex-girlfriend from college resurfaced on the internet, along with my past dating history,ā you whisper, āand everyoneās been saying Iām taking advantage of your money and I have you fooled because Iāve only dated girls before you, and they think Iām a lesbian,ā
Drewās eyes widen at these words escaping your lips, his fingers caressing your cheek stopping its motion. āJesus,ā he mutters, and you can see flecks of anger and rage beginning to appear in his eyes.
A small silence falls over you both as you both look in different directions, your gaze back at your shoes and his flitting around your surroundings of the alleyway, as if in deep thought.
āIāll talk about it,ā he says suddenly, causing you to look up in his eyes with a hint of confusion in your eyes. āIāll address this on social media, Iāll say Iāve always known youāre bisexual, and that youāve always been out, and Iāve never doubted that. This canāt go on, the last thing I want is people being homophobic to you just because youāve only dated girls before I came in your life. You donāt deserve that baby, and Iāll fix this matter right up okay?ā
You look at him with your eyes starting to widen, a thin layer of glass forming over them.
āUnlessāā he says again, āyou donāt want to come out to the general public?ā
āNo no,ā you shake your head at his words, āIām okay with that, more than okay with that,ā you mumble.
Drew sighs softly as he nods, his hands trailing down your arms and finding your hips, which he gently squeezes before pulling you in a warm embrace.
āIām so sorry you had to hear that baby,ā he whispers. āIām so so sorry. Iāll fix this first thing tomorrow you hear me? There is no way in heck Iām letting you hear more on this,ā
You bury your face in his chest and close your eyes shut, a few tears making their way down your eyes and pressing against his shirt as they do so. He squeezes you closer to him when he feels your tears against his shirt, one hand coming up to slip into your hair and gently scratch your scalp.
āThank you, Drew,ā you mumble against his shirt, your voice coming out muffled.
āDonāt thank me bubs this is the least I can do,ā he says softly. He gently pulls your head back from his chest, holding your face in his hands as he looks in your eyes.
āThe next time you see something on social media you tell me straight away okay? Donāt hide anything from me, Iāll find a way to fix it each time,ā he whispers, his thumbs caressing your cheeks to wipe the tears.
You nod as you look back in his eyes, a look of earnest gratitude shining through them.
He presses a soft kiss to the top of your head, letting his lips linger against your skin for a moment before looking back in your eyes. He pulls from the embrace and takes your hand, intertwining his with it firmly.
āNow come on, I believe I still have to buy you some gelato,ā he says softly with a warm smile, tugging gently on your hand.
You sniff as you nod, letting him lead you out of the silent alleyway.
The post debuts on Drewās Instagram the very next morning, a long caption along with a carousel of your favorite pictures with him throughout the years of your dating journey. The comments fill up with supporters, everyone showering you with love and loads even congratulating you for coming out to the general public. The comments and appreciation makes you smile warmly, making you realize no matter what happens, Drew will always be by your side, because heās here to stay.

Oh wow! Hey, Hiā umā¦ How are ya?!
I have so much on my plate with asks I still need to get to and two WIPs (plus a couple things not currently being posted) Iām working on that I donāt think I could ask for prompts or anything. Maybe Iāll think up something for if I get to 500 š«¶
Sooo instead I will give you some sappy sappy word vomit below the cutš
I just hit 400 followers <3 which might not be a huge number compared to other blogs on this app, but it is leaps and bounds more than I ever thought Iād have. Especially since, when I first joined I only expected to lurk around other peoples postsā¦ maybe share a fewā¦ mostly because I have never been much of a bloggerā I have tried in the past, and it never stuck (first time for everything I guess)ā but also because Iām extremely introverted, and as much as I would LOVE, and desperately attempted, for it not to bleed into my online personaā¦ it did, regardless. BUT, somehow as quiet and kept to myself as I always wind up becoming in the fandoms Iām a part ofā¦ I still have managed to meet some TRULY amazing people through them!
@scripted-downfall wench, angst queen you are so important to me and I hope Iām lucky enough to keep you a part of my life forever! š«¶
@onthewaytosomewhere MELZZZZ! Always a shoulder to vent on about my stressful stressful life! My smut writing mentor š I luv you!
@bucksxkinard and @somethingaboutfirefly tumblr besties!!! You two inflate my head so much about my writing but you have no idea how appreciated you are!

And donāt get me started on how you each interchange these and so Iām just fed for daysss! (Plus, Bucks dreams, come onnnn) Itās an honor to be a part of that *said in Tommyās voice, of course*
@girlwonder-writes you found me and brought me into your amazing accepting community. And your ability to flesh out OCs (Olivia my beloved she is so mean to you, lol) and your encouragement for us to show our OCs love! š«¶

hey love!! so in awe of your writing & writing style and i wanted to ask which fic of yours is your favorite?
Well hey there, my lovely!
Oh wow, you're so kind, thank you!! š„°šš That is a tough question... So I'm going to cheat a little bit and give you my top 3:
3. Smoke Eater (Firefighter!Dean Winchester x Reader)
Summary:Ā Dean Winchester is the cocky, but well-respected Lieutenant at Firehouse 25. He leads by example, but heās also known to break a few hearts. Heās starting to crave something heās never had, though. Something stable. Something real.Ā Thatās when he meets you, on a truly terrible day, trapped in a rickety old elevator.Ā
This was my first full AU series. It came from my love of Chicago Fire and medical and cop procedurals like it. Throw in a murder mystery, arson, former playboy Dean, and other angsty storylines in the middle of a whirlwind romance, and you got yourself a firefighter AU! ā¤ļøāš„
2. Break Me Down (Soldier Boy x Reader)
Summary:Ā Youāre a private investigator by trade, but now you happily sit at a desk ā leading a surveillance team at Supe Affairs. After managing to end Homelander in New York, Soldier Boy escapes custody.Ā YouĀ are recruited for the manhunt, joining Butcherās team.
I feel like most people would expect me to answer this one for number one, but it's still very close to my heart. It was my first real foray into the complex, lovable asshole known as Soldier Boy (Ben).
And it was my attempt at creating a redemption arc for him through an "enemies to lovers" story, edgier than anything I'd done previously, thanks to the grittiness of The Boys world.
I've continued writing far past the original series because I just can't quit these two, and this version of Ben.
1. Midnight Espresso Series (Dean Winchester x Plus-Sized Latina Reader)
This is a collection of stories in the SPN fandom, and it's very personal to me! (I'm plus-sized and Latina.) Though I tried to make it so all readers, regardless of race/ethnicity or otherwise, could enjoy those stories as well.
It gave me the chance to pair Dean with a reader character who is also a giver like him, who looks out for and cares for him in the same way he cares for others, all while being a badass hunter herself.
From dramatic and angsty hurt/comfort to fluffy smut, I've tried to explore many facets of their relationship, while utilizing both my heritage/culture and my personal experience with body insecurity, body shaming, etc. Like BMD, this is a series I can always come back to and write more stories for. š
Bonus: The Honorable ChoiceĀ - (Dean W. x OFC)
Summary:Ā June 1872. Captain Dean Winchester of the U.S. Cavalry is tasked with one job: break a wild mustang. He just didnāt expect the woman who infiltrates his camp, intent on freeing her tribeās horse.
I haven't dropped this one yet, but I'm mentioning it because it's currently one of my favorite projects that I've worked on so far!
ā¬ļø Part 1 coming on 11/03Ā (Read it on Patreon now!)

Skyward Bound Hearts
Fandom: Top Gun: Maverick
Pairing: Billy "Fritz" Avalone x F!Reader
Summary: After getting a new job, you move in with your best friend, Billy. You end up meeting some of his Top Gun buddies and while Billy was okay with being just friends, it isn't until his friends showing interest in you that he finally decides to change the status of your relationship.
Manny Jacinto Characters Masterlist
"Hey!" Billy waves at you from his porch as you roll up in the moving truck. You practically collapse into his arms when he opens the door. Long hours driving a large moving truck can have that effect on you.
"I hope to never be in a moving truck for...the rest of my life," you state as you look at your best friend. His cropped black hair, tanned skin, wide smile, and overall handsome face. Just like you remember.
"How are you, Bills?" you asking, ruffling this hair.
He chuckles, running a hand through his now messy hair, "You know how I'm doing. We talk almost every day."
You shrug, "Yeah, but it's different face to face, dumbo," you pinch his nose and head to the back of the truck, lifting the rolling door up.
Billy follows you, arm wrapping around your shoulder and whistles, "That's...a lot of stuff." He puts his free hand on his hip, "You managed to fit all of this in your small apartment?"
"It's mainly all small stuff. Knowing you, your place looks boring and minimalistic as shit. I brought all of my stuff to bring some life to this place," you look at him with a grin and a mischievous sparkle in your eyes.
He chuckles, shaking his head, "You never fail to bring some excitement in my life, Angel." He climbs into the truck's bed and starts handing you some boxes.
Thirty minutes into moving, you hear a honk and three cars roll up behind the truck. You arch a brow in confusion, looking back at Billy for answers, "Friends of yours?"
He shoots you a grin, "Figured we can use some help to get this done faster. Plus, you said you wanted to meet them." He hops out of the truck as soon as several men and two women exits the cars.
"Your saviors are here!" a tall, pretty boy looking man announces as he steps out of the driver's seat. He tilts the glasses on his face down to look your way.
You join Billy's side and murmur into his ear, "Let me guess, that's Hangman."
Billy snickers into his hand, "Yup."
You sigh, "Hate cocky, pretty boys."
He shrugs, "He can be...decent on occasion." He waves at his Navy buddies.
Hangman gives you a look that makes you roll your eyes, "Fritz, you didn't tell me how gorgeous your new roommate is!"
Everyone circles you and Billy and you give them an awkward wave, "Uh, hi, everyone. I'm Y/N."
"Billy said your name was Angel?" one of them says in a confused tone.
You chuckle, "It's a nickname Billy's mom gave me when we were kids. So he's always called me that."
"So you two have known each other a long time?" one of the women asks.
Billy nods, "Yup. Basically our whole lives. Our moms are best friends," he shoots you a familiar grin.
Hangman steps, "So you'd say you're more like siblings than anything, right?" he looks you up and down with a smirk.
You snort, putting your hand against his chest and pushing him back, "I'd just like to put it out there that my type isn't cocky pretty boys. So don't bother."
Everyone around you "ooouuuu", causing Hangman to feel embarrassed. He clears his throat and hollers, "Let's get this show on the road!" He pushes through the group and heads to the truck.
Everyone shakes their heads or rolls their eyes; and introduces themselves to you all by their call signs.
"Fanboy."
"Bob."
"Phoenix."
"Rooster."
"Yale."
"Payback."
"Omaha."
"Halo."
"Coyote."
"Harvard."
An assembly line is formed leading up to Billy's house and into your room. Boxes and furniture slowly fill up the space. It isn't until the sun starts setting that everything is out of the truck.
To celebrate the hard work done, you order pizza and Billy runs to grab beers for everyone.
Now you're all crowding the living room, lounging around, stuffing your face with greasy pizza and beer.
Throughout the day, you were able to chat and get to know Billy's friends. However, you clung mainly to Halo and Phoenix's side because there was waaay too much macho energy.
So in your small circle of girls, you two chat, while the boisterous group of guys chat, hollering playful banter to each other.
"They're always like this, aren't they?" you ask the women as you take a sip of beer.
They both nod, "Unfortunately so. But they're all good guys...save for Hangman, but you already knew that." Phoenix gives you a knowing look.
You snort, "Yeah, Bills would always talk about you guys, Hangman especially. So it's nice to put a face to all of the names I've been hearing for so long."
Halo speaks up, "So what's the story with you and Fritz?" She leans in with piqued interest.
You chuckle, "It's a long story, but, overall, our moms are best friends. They got pregnant around the same time. Billy was born a few months before me. We grew up together. Have stuck by each other's sides ever since."
"So why did you move down here?" Phoenix asks.
"I work for a non-profit org. They're opening offices in Southern California, one of them being here in San Diego. When I told Billy, he immediately offered his spare room for me. Now here we are!" you gesture to the area around you.
"So nothing ever happened between you and Fritz?" Phoenix asks with raised brows and an unconvinced expression.
"Well, I mean, there was a summer in high school-"
"Aaaand there it is," Halo and Phoenix clink their bottles together and both take a swig.
You roll your eyes, "It was short lived. A lot happened that summer and by the end, we both decided it was better if we were best friends and that's it."
"But do you still feel that way?" Halo asks with a pointed look.
You sigh, looking over to Billy who was now taking part in a drinking game with the guys. He's smiling wide and there's a red hue to his skin from the effects of the alcohol. There's a tug at your heart, a yearning that you've felt for so long.
"Well that look definitely answers your question, Halo," Phoenix says with a snort.
You slump, "Doesn't matter. We're still best friends and I'm happy to have him in my life in any way that I can."
_______________
Billy looks over to you as you, Halo, and Phoenix clink your beer bottles together and each take a sip.
He just watches as you chat and laugh with the women. A smile makes its way to his face as you snort, shoving Phoenix in the shoulder for making you laugh.
A shoulder bumps Billy's, catching his attention. He turns to see Fanboy standing there, "Hey, man," he says to the pilot.
Mickey nods towards you, "So, uh, Angel doesn't have anyone does she? No boyfriend, girlfriend, or some partner, right?"
His question makes Billy stand up straighter, "No, why?"
Rooster, watching the interaction snickers, "He's already sizing you up, Fanboy," he gives the fellow pilot a slap to the arm.
Fanboy holds his hands up, "Hey, I'm just wondering! And, you know, she seems cool. Thought I'd invite her out on a drink or something!"
Billy crosses his arms over his chest and cocks a brow at him, "Listen, Angel is important to me, so if you're really interested in her, be my guest, but don't bother if you're looking for a lay."
Fanboy shakes his head, "No, no. Nothing like that, I swear. It's just...we chatted a bit about Star Wars because I saw she had a few Funko Pops of some characters. Thought we could talk more about stuff like that."
Billy drops his arms and shrugs, "Go for it, man. But she'll put you through the ringer if you're a dick to her."
"Hey, I'm not like Hangman," he points to the blonde as his ball sinks into a cup.
Billy snorts, "Yeah and thank God for that."
___________________________
The next few days go by in a whirlwind of unpacking and having dinner with Billy. By the end of the week, you've unpacked a majority of your things. You've hung up a few pieces of framed artwork and pictures, placed a few of your knick knacks on shelves, and filled the fridge and pantry with your groceries of choice.
Itāll be your first day at the new office tomorrow. You were a little nervous because you didn't know anyone that'll be at this location, but you were also excited to begin decorating your cubicle.
To ease your worries, Billy decided to bring you to the Hard Deck for some celebratory drinks. No surprise there were several of his Naval buddies there.
You and Billy give them a wave before heading to your own table to be alone. That was short lived when Coyote and Fanboy approach you two.
"Heeeey! Mind if we join you guys?"
Billy gives an annoyed look and you snort, but shrug, "Not at all."
"Great! Lemme grab you a beer!" Fanboy scurries away to the counter where he asks Penny for a beer. She pops one open and slides to him. He hurries back and placing it before you, "For the lady!"
Billy looks at him confused with his arms out, "What about me?"
You giggle and push your drink to him, "Have mine. I'll get-"
"I got it!" Fanboy exclaims as he heads back to the counter for another beer.
You lean in to murmur to Billy, "He's laying it thick."
"Yeah. I told you, he wants to get to know you and be in my good graces."
You snort, "And how's that going?"
"He's annoying the hell outta me," he replies with a smirk and you burst out laughing. The smirk turns into a smile, a feeling of pride fills him as he made you laugh.
"What's funny?" Fanboy asks as he returns with your new bottle of beer.
"Inside joke," you and Billy respond, causing both of you to laugh more.
Coyote clears his throat, "You guys are really close, huh?"
Billy nods, "Yeah. You should've seen her when I had to go to boot camp. She sent me sooo many letters saying how much she misses me."
You roll your eyes, "You said you missed me too! And the second you were outta there and you were back to calling me almost every night!" you stuck your tongue out at him.
It's now Fanboy that clears his throat, "Sooo what're we drinking to?" he asks as he stands beside you.
"Angel starts her new job tomorrow, so I guess that."
Fanboy lifts his bottle up, "A toast to Angel and her new job!"
"Cheers!" the four of you say as you bump your bottles together.
After taking a few sips, Fanboy asks you, "Hey, uh, Angel, you wanna play a round of pool?"
You laugh, "Hell yeah. Get ready to lose, Fly Boy!" you take your beer and grab Fanboy's hand, leading him to the pool tables on the other side of the bar.
Billy watches as you rack up the balls, he takes a swig from his bottle.
"They'd make a cute couple," Coyote says which makes Billy choke on his drink.
"Jesus!" Billy coughs up liquid as Coyote is patting his back, "You good, man?"
Billy gasps for air as he nods, "Yup. Good. The comment just took me off guard."
Coyote raises a brow, "Does that bother you? The thought of Fanboy and Angel dating?"
Billy looks back at you as you sink a ball in. You pump the air and push Fanboy aside as he pouts. You giggle and pinch his cheek before lining up your next shot.
"I just...I want her happy. And I'm not sure if Fanboy could give her that just yet." He looks away and takes another sip of his beer.
"If I'm overstepping, let me know, but...you guys never dated, did you?"
Billy sighs, running his hand through his cropped black hair, "In high school. The summer after we graduated. We dated for a few months but then I decided to enlist and-"
"Aaaand you broke it off," Coyote finishes, "Do you regret breaking it off?"
"I-" he pauses when he hears your boisterous laugh. He looks across the bar to see you holding Fanboy's arm as you laugh. Fanboy looks like he won the jackpot from the way he was looking at you, happy to be the source of your enjoyment.
Billy sighs, "It doesn't matter. We're best friends. It's worked out great this long."
"But you want more?"
He shrugs, "Only if she does," he murmurs before looking away from you as Fanboy moves some of your hair out of your face, causing you to shy away from him.
___________________
Youāre a little tipsy. Youāre aware as you sway a little too much while walking into Billyās place.
He sits you in the couch while he goes to get you some water. You practically melt into the cushions while waiting for him.
You hear a click and look up to see Billy pointing his phone at you, āGoddammit, Bills.ā
He snickers, āSorry. You just look so cute,ā he shows you the picture of you curling up on the couch.
You roll your eyes, āWhatever,ā pushing his phone away and taking the cup of water from him. You gulp the entire cup down.
Billy watches you with amusement in his eyes, āGood?ā You give him a thumbs up and curl back onto the couch.
He sets the cup onto the coffee table and sits beside you. You donāt look at him while you say, āFanboy asked me on a date.ā Youāre playing with Billyās fingers to keep you occupied.
āYeah? What did you say?ā
āThat Iāll think about it.ā
āHeās a good guy. He can be a punk sometimes, but heās overall good.ā
āI justā¦ā you hesitate. Do you tell him why you didnāt say yes to Fanboy? Do you tell him that even after you two broke up all those years ago that you still love him as more than your best friend? Do you-
āEven though Fanboy is a good guyā¦I donāt want you dating him,ā Billy murmurs, not meeting your eyes.
āBill-ā
He grabs your hand and intertwines your fingers with his, āI want to try again, Angel. I want to try us again. With you living so far, I didnāt think it would happen, but now youāre here and-and I think this could be our chance.ā
You look over your shoulder and see the time. Itās late and you really need to go to bed so youāll wake up in time.
You lean in and kiss his cheek. When you pull away, you can see thereās so many questions that he wants to ask.
āItās been a long day. We both drank a bit. How about, we talk about this more tomorrow after work. And believe me when I say this isnāt a rejection, Billy. I just think we need to be completely coherent when we discuss this.ā
He gulps and slowly nods, whispering, āOkay.ā He watches as you get up and murmur, āTomorrow.ā
āTomorrow.ā
āGood night, Bills.ā
āNight,ā he rasps out and keeps his eyes on you until youāre out of sight and he hears the click of your door.
He immediately slumps into the couch, hands covering his face, āFuuuuuuck.ā
_____________________
The following day, all you thought about was Billy's confession. You found yourself constantly smiling at the memory of Billy wanting to try again.
It broke you when you two broke up the first time, but you understood why. He was enlisting, you two would be away from each other for so long. But now, it seems fate has brought you two together again and given you another chance.
You just hope that Billy really meant what he said and it wasn't any drunk ramblings.
So you offer to pick up some food on your way home. Billy puts in an order for you to pick up, so the food is already done by the time you get there.
As the distance between you and Billy grow smaller, the more nervous you become. What if he tells you he didn't mean it? What if it's some sort of sick joke? You mentally curse yourself for getting so excited about being with him again.
When you get home, you shake things off and try to remain neutral. You won't expect the best or the worst. You'll hear what Billy says and go from there....but goddammit, do you hope he wants you as much as you want him.
You enter the home and see Billy setting up the table. When you approach him, you kiss him on the cheek, something you're not even sure why you did. It just felt right. The gesture made you and he both freeze.
"I, uh, sorry. I didn't-I'm not sure why I did that."
Billy nervously clears his throat, "No, no. It's-It's fine. Um," he gestures for you to sit down and you do, setting the takeout in-between you.
Both of you awkwardly open the containers, grabbing food from each other and setting it on your own plates. There's a silence between you that you absolutely hate. Things are never awkward between you and Billy. You don't like this feeling one bit so you set your fork down and clear your throat.
Billy looks up from his food and straightens his posture. You speak, "I don't like this awkwardness that's happening right now, so I'm just gonna start talking, if that's okay?"
"Uh, yeah. Sure."
You let out a deep breath, "I love you, Billy. I've loved you practically my whole life. I don't want to be with anyone else, but you. So I hope that what you said last night is still true and it isn't some mean joke you're playing on me or some drunk-"
"I meant it," he interrupts you, "I meant what I said and I still mean it. And I love you too. Always have. Always will," he fidgets in his chair a bit, "Angel, you are literally the person for me. I can't imagine my life without you in it. When you said you'd be moving over here, I immediately knew this was a second chance for us. I kick myself every day for breaking things off years ago. But I'm so goddamn lucky you still remained in my life after."
You're beaming at Billy now, practically oozing love and adoration for the man before you and he's matching the same expression.
"Okay...cool," you say and that makes Billy laugh, "Only you would say 'okay, cool' after we confess our love to each other."
You roll your eyes at him, "Whatever. You love it."
Billy softly smiles, "I do love it. I also love you."
You look down at your plate with a shy smile, picking up your fork and pushing food around your plate. You feel just how you did when you and Billy got together all those years ago, like your heart is floating.

When I started with this asmr audio story thing I got used to listening only to M4A, I could never listen to M4F or M4M because I always had a strange feeling (I am a woman btw) But after listening to the whole BW and loving it, I was able to easily swallow BVZ. But for some reason, after I joined your fandom and saw so many fanarts of Faithful being a plus sized black woman, I simply took away my own view of Faith being more like me for her to be that way. Then with Karmor it was the same but more direct, I saw a fanart of him and for me that became his canon appearance (I remember you saying that you wanted to make that fanart be his Canon appearance). This is very strange, I've seen people comment that when they listen they don't imagine themselves as the "Listener" and now I feel this is so true.
When I set out to make BW, I never intended for people to relate to Albus at all lol! But as the story went on, it was clear that Faith's personality wasn't particularly...general enough? Not as many people could relate to her and why she did the things she did, but they kept watching, because...they really liked Albus! I don't know how it happened, truly I don't lol!
But this makes me very happy for one very specific reason.
I HATE XLISTENERS! I hate writing them, I hate recording them, I hate editing them! If you've watched any of my videos, you KNOW I am SO GOOD AT BANTER! Because I LOVE banter! I love having characters talk and interact and go back and forth, discussing various silly topics, but if it's just one guy and a character who A: doesn't talk, and B: has the collective personality of EVERYONE LISTENING!?, it's so frustrating!
Okay, rant over lol! All that being said, writing listeners is definitely a hell of an exercise. How do you write dialogue for a character who says everything and nothing? Who has a personality, but cannot express themselves in an audible or visual means. What a truly brutal challenge lol!
But the reason its so good that people are preferring to relate to the speaking characters, is because, one day, maybe not soon, but one day, I'll just have a normal audioplay that'll do really well, because everyone loves the characters. I've actually already got a concept for one in the works! Progress s being made!

Air Temple Island, the Water Tribes & the Real Life Influences that bring them together
I was gonna screenshot a post I saw and add it to my post but I donāt feel like giving that individual attention (and the 300+ notes they got), so I just decided to make my own standalone post debunking this narrative that air temple island is this fully air nomad brothel (yes they said this) with ZERO water tribe motifs which katara is forced to live in until aang passed away.
frankly it just reminded me of how little people in this fandom actually bother to analyze the actual content, instead preferring to write entirely made up scenarios of katara being reduced to an air nomad incubator along with dozens other female acolytes (yes they also said this lmao. also them acting like both male AND female acolytes werenāt living on the whole other side of the island š)
when in truth, iāve come to find a lot of elements of both water tribes as well as traditional inuit elements across air temple island:
1. the paifang
a traditionally chinese element that for some reason is exclusively found in the northern water tribe (why do they have a gate inside a throne room, you ask? ask the white people that made this show). the one on the left is actually one of two aang BUILT, at the main entrance and another at the temple entrance. this is just one example of water tribe design on the island.
2. the bagua mosaic
another structure is the bagua mosaic on the training grounds. bagua is a set of traditional chinese symbols of the cosmology, taoism. the bagua composes of 8 sets of broken or unbroken lines that represent yin and yang. where have we seen yin and yang in the original series? oh yeah, as tui and la of the water tribe! (because atla is a mess of asiatic and indigenous motifs joined together and spread out across each nation, mainly traditionally chinese elements at that.) aang building this right next to the air nomad training grounds is a symbol of the dual bending heritage their children will have.
3. gold and blue accents
now, gold and blue are the main colors of the exterior structures but is also very strong inside the air temple itself. note, the massive air nomad symbol designed fully in blue in the center and the blue banners and rugs throughout the temple. this is no doubt, for me, a visual depiction of both katara and aangās representative cultures, but of course this is not limited to color only.
4. cloud carvings
now, this is a slight detour since clouds arenāt a significant part of either of their individual cultures (that we know) but i love the kataang monopoly they have on clouds as a couple so iām talking about it. if you look at these images very closely what do you see? CLOUD CARVINGS!! specifically near the ceiling of the pavilion (left) and the arches and walls of the temple (right) just imagining aang painting and etching these very consistent swirls, like heāll never be the selfish inconsiderate unromantic loser you people want him to be, but letās get more into the southern water tribe style interior.
5. interior design
so here is a southern water tribe white lotus outpost vs the air temple island main dining room. first thing, the seat cushions and rug! while we donāt see air nomad eating quarters we do get to see enough SWT customs both in atla and lok, to know this is how they traditionally eat compared to the north (limiting myself on pics cuz mobile).
another thing is the dining table itself. both have what i believe to be built in fire pits (i couldnāt actually tell for the air temple island one cuz of the quality but if you zoom in you can see the lines go in the table plus the hanging kettle on it makes it obvious to me idk). the southern water tribe one however is clear and likely a more traditional version of what aang and katara have.
thirdly, the exposed timber on the ceiling. i actually looked it up and found this is a common element of these two inuit structures: left is an aasiaat peat house and right is an igloolik turf house. all this for me to believe not only did aang build air temple island to be a haven for the TWO of them but also that katara herself had a lot of input on the interior than people care to notice lol.
maybe instead of projecting these loser fantasies of katara being some unwilling air nomad baby making machine so you can feel better about your fantasies of katara living in a red palace with people that tried to wipe her out for a whole century, you all can go study the actual canon you were shown and the real life cultures the franchise takes from.
6. lastly, some of my own headcanons/stuff i want to see in the movie
the bathroom because I LIVE for a white marble tiled bathroom. i just know katara has to have a HUGE tub and they have one of those insane glass showers that can fit like 3 people, with cloud swirls everywhere because aang clearly got it like that
the KITCHEN, i imagine it being timber like the dining room and is probably on the other side behind the built-in shelf (get into the details like hello). in a perfect world, it would be open plan but hey
the bedroom, now we saw it in lok a bit but i wanna see it in the gaang movie too. iām on pic limit but thereās a lot of artwork and flowers throughout the whole house which i give katara credit for because I can. like the desk, the bookshelf, that fancy looking vase thing? these two clearly have taste like donāt talk to me rn
I also didnāt show the rooms and aangās study but thereās a lot of blue decor in those places which makes me think katara decorated the whole house, even the acolytesā hall has blue sitting cushions and columns which i think is such a nice detail.
if you guys have any air temple island headcanons of your own please reply with some iām feening lol
big shoutout to this user:

TL;DR: multiple people can arrive at the same fanfic idea/premise in different ways, but also, getting inspired by a different fanfic is not stealing, please don't gatekeep!
I joined a new fandom (it's Resident Evil (RE), which I'm mostly mentioning for that one 'nosy' anon because hell yeah I am super nosy as well, so here you go, dropping some names!), and I quickly stumbled upon one fandom-specific plot trope that I thought was both pretty neat but also super obvious (Infected!Character fic, which, in a world with zombies and viruses that cause zombies is a very logical trope).
Anyway, there was not quite as much body horror as I thought there would be, although I'm still looking, but that's not why I'm writing to you, that's just the (un)necessary background.
There was this one fic that I opened, which in its Author's Note clearly stated that the author set this fanfiction in another author's AU, because they loved the world created by this first author. The first fanfiction author basically came up with their own Infected!Character design and backstory (including fanart), and the second fanfiction author liked it so much they were now writing this fic based on/in that AU. Obviously not quoting the AN directly, but this second author was very complimentary and explicitly mentioned where they got the idea from, gushing about the first author.
In the AN for chapter two, the second author stated that they weren't aware that that first fanfiction author didn't allow others to write about the Infected!Character AU they'd made, that that first author in fact only allowed a very limited number of people they publicly approved of to write about their AU, and nobody else was allowed to touch the Infected!Character AU. This second author was now apologising in the AN for not knowing this, plus mentioning that they changed chapter one to switch up the backstory & design to not be too close to that of the first fanficton author's AU.
That made me sad, honestly. I've seen this attitude a couple of times, where fanfiction authors are super protective of their ideas that they won't allow any other fanfiction author to write about them, and it's always struck me as a little bit hypocritical, given the whole deal of fanfiction. Especially when the original/first fanfiction author is credited and the inspired work is clearly done because the second author loved the first fanfiction so much. If it's a highly developed/specific and original AU (so not just any common trope), and you don't even mention the fanfic you were inspired by, then I find that rude, but just flat out not allowing people to even touch 'your' thing? C'mon!
This partially ties into my other gripe about a specific type of comments I occasionally get, which are along the lines of 'huh interesting idea where did you get it? bc/btw there is this other fic with the same idea (posted before you)'; idk if I got the tone right, but they never seem to be actually genuinely asking how I got the idea (and I always delight in telling them, not sarcastically, I genuinely love talking about this stuff, bc I get inspired by the most random things and I love love writing 'original'/new things!! I love tropes as much as anybody, I read a shitton of them, but i when I write I love coming up with new shit/plot! it's so fun!!). They just vanish after my explanation, even when I try to invite further conversation. It always feels to me like they're 'checking' that I didn't steal the idea, and it feels a bit lousy.
I mean in (larger) fandoms, it is not surprising at all that two or three or even more people arrive at the same idea, maybe even inspired by the same thing, same reading of canon, or not, varied experiences--and just because the works are similar doesn't mean that they were inspired by one another, but if they are, that's not a sin! I just want people to not take everything in bad faith, and also, to not 'disallow' others from getting inspired, especially when they do it in a very polite manner!
It's because of comments like these that I sometimes, very privately, worry that before I'll manage to post the long fic I spent months writing--because I'm one of those who wants the thing finished before I start posting--somebody else will have a similar idea, post their thing first, and then I'll look like I'm lying about not reading/stealing their idea, or just jumping on the bandwagon, which again, it's not a bad thing, actually.
And it shouldn't be like that! I shouldn't worry, and people should also be more willing to accept that authors can arrive at the same idea at (roughly) the same time & accept that explanation without side-eyeing the author, and that if an author is inspired by a different fanfic, that's not a sin either (in fact, for me it would be an honour).
None of this is new either, but that RE stuff reminded me of it again.
Oh man, this is way longer than I thought it would be. Apologies. I'm going to add a TLDR at the start.
Anyway, I'm going to finish writing an Infected!Catboy!Leon fic now and be very unsurprised if I find out that somebody else has had the same idea long before me (aside from one or two reader fic inserts with that topic that I stumbled upon on tumblr, bc that's just not my thing at all (reader insert, I mean)).
--
In college, friends of mine had a falling out over one of them "stealing" the other's fic idea.
Space pirates.
Not specific space pirates. Not a way of integrating the concept that was fandom-specific. No, just the general idea of space pirates in the same fandom.
Never have I facepalmed so hard.

I'm bored and my head is full of One Piece stuff. So I decided to join the old N$FW alphabet trend, with my beloved, Eustass Kid. English is not my first language, so sorry for the mistakes.
WC : 3869
A: Aftercare (What theyāre like after sex)
If youāre just a one night stand, Kidās aftercare is nonexistent. He will just tell if your session was nice or shitty (with his usual brutal honesty, so sorry not sorry if it hurts your feelings), heāll maybe make a comment about how good your ass was and then, heāll bark you to leave his room, or if heās at your place, heāll leave without any more word. Do not expect any form of kindness from him, this man is rough by nature after all.
However, if you too are engaged into a relationship, heāll need some time to cool and calm down, so donāt talk to him or try to cuddle with him during this time, itāll only annoys him. After that, heāll get up and bring you a glass of water and something to clean you up. He knows heās rough during sex and wants to make sure youāre doing okay, so feel free to ask him anything else. Once youāre comfortable and all your needs are fulfilled, heāll lay next to you and give you his honest opinion regarding your session. Heāll let you rest your head on his chest, while he runs his fingers through your hair. Kid is not good with pillow talk (and with any talk in general), I think heās more the type of guy to quickly fall asleep (and snore loudly). If youāre in a talkative mood, heāll try to keep his eyes open but end up falling asleep quickly anyway.Ā
B: Body Part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partnerās) Ā
On himself, bro is a fan of his own dick, I think everyone in the fandom agree with this fact. He knows it huge and heās proud of it. I mean, he makes women cum all around it or gag on, of course heās proud. Actually, you know how to boost his ego? When he undresses in front of you for the first time, ask him if his cock will fit into you with a worried face. He will be so fucking proud.
Another objective fact, this man is a fan of his torso. I mean, the shirts heās wearing are useless as fuck, bro just wants to flex with his muscles.Ā
With his partner, Kid is in love with their ass. The whole Eustass Kid agenda agrees with this headcanon. He wants to see your booty all the time : spank it,Ā grab it, makes it jiggle, even bites on those juicy cheeks. Damn, his hand(s) is/are always glued to your glute.Ā
C: Cum (Anything to do with cum) Ā
Well, regarding his cum itself, itās on the thicker side and thereās quite a lot of it. Definitely not really tasty, but overall, itās not the worst taste.Ā
Kid loves to see his partner covered in his cum, its fuel his ego immensely. His favorite spot are your ass, your stomach and your face. If he cum during a blowjob, he asks you to pull your tongue out and will cum on It before making sure you swallow every drop.Ā
With a one night stand, Kid will NEVER cum inside. Heās already a Kid lol, having another one kiddo is not in his plans. Actually, if you ask him to cum inside, heāll get mad at you and starts to think you want to have a child with him, so the mood is totally ruined.
If youāre his lover, heāll maybe cum inside you, depending to your menstruation cycle. He just loves seeing his seed slowly flowing out of your pussy and stuffed his fingers to put every drop right back inside of you.Ā
D:Dirty Secret
Well itās not a dirty secret but considering how cocky and arrogant he always acts, it is for him. The fact is, sometime, Kid likes when you take all the initiatives and do all the work. Yeah, I know, at the first look it doesnāt match his energy, but sometimes, Kid can get pretty tired, especially since he lost his arm. He rarely use his metal arm in bed because heās afraid of hurting you. And doing everything with one arm can be exhausting from time to time. So please, offer him some relieve, be a good girl and ride him.Ā
Plus, of course, Kid loves anal sex. Fucking, fingering or licking that ass is a major turn on for him. Maybe some people find anal sex dirty, but not him. He LOVES how naughty it is, how tight an asshole is and how flustered his partner is when he spreads their ass cheek to lick their hole.Ā
And, since Kid is a punk, you CANāT convince me this man have a single heterosexual bone in his body. Kid is not straight, I can smell it. I think heās bisexual.So he often has fantasies regarding a threesome with a man. If youāre a one night stand, he doesnāt mind sharing because he just doesnāt care about you. If youāre his lover, heāll maybe try if you insist on a lot, but will fix a lot of rules, like the other man canāt kiss you or put their dick inside your pussy. Your pussy is his and only his.
E: Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what theyāre doing?)
Considering how much Kid cares about his reputation, he knows what heās into doing in bed. Sure, during his first times, it was a bit messy, but heās a fast learner and good at following his instincts.
He also has no shame to ask you to touch yourself, so he knows what you like and how to make you cum as many times at possible.Ā
Overall, Kid doesnāt have a lot of experience, I mean, he didnāt fuck with hundred of guys/women. But heās not a virgin. Heās just really focused on his goal of becoming the PK and one night stand only happens from time to time. Considering how asocial heās, I think he needs to feel a kind of connexion to have sex with someone, even if itās just for one night.Ā
F: Favorite Position
Literally, any variation of doggy style. Kid is an ass man, so he wants and needs to see the ass heās fucking. Plus, heās a rough guy, with wild instincts and seeing someone all helpless, on all four awake his carnal desires.
The more helpless you are in front of him, the more heās turned on. He likes to see your pussy and asshole clenching desperately, waiting to be filled. While he thrusts into you, he just loves seeing your ass giggled and leave some hand prints when he spank you. If he can tie your wrists or pull on your hair, then, itās even better. Seeing you, your chest against the mattress and your ass up in the sky is his favorite view. Plus, he can see his cock thrusting inside of you, coat of your juice. What a delight.Ā
With his lover, he also likes matting press. Just because you always cry out, complaining about how big heās and how deep heās fucking you in this position. Heāll never stop looking at you and your flustered expression.Ā
As I said in the dirty secret, Kid also likes to leave all the work for you sometime. In this case, heāll go with reverse cowgirl. He can see your ass, hold your hips with one hand, or just lay back and watch you bounce up and down desperately on his cock. Seeing his dick buried deep inside of you will make him growl of satisfaction.Ā
G: Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc.) Ā
Not goofy at all. Sex isnāt supposed to be funny for Kid. I think he can laugh, like while heās teasing you, heāll make fun of you, like "look at you, crying for my cock, youāre such a crybaby" but thatās all. Never, lord, never, youāll hear Kid joking during sex.
If someone laughs at him during sex, then, heās pissed off. With a night one stand, the mood is just ruined and heāll leave. With his lover, heāll get mad too, and also kinda hurt in his pride. He wants to make you feel good and cum at least once, so if you laugh at him, he'll think heās not doing a good work. It will take a lot of time to reassure him after laughing at him.
H: Hair (How well-groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)
Lol, I donāt think someone will live after asking him such a question.
But the carpet matches the drapes.Ā
Honestly, I donāt see Kid as a very hairy guy.Ā
And itās maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think Kid takes care of himself. I mean, his manicure and make-up are always nailed. So when itās starting to be hairy down there, heāll trim it and cursed during the whole process, but thatās just Kid, always cursing.Ā
I: Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspectā¦)
With a one night stand ? Zero intimacy. Just rough sex and two people trying to reach ecstasy.Ā
With his lover, Kid is still not a romantic. For him, sex is not a way to express his love, itās just a way to make the both of you feels good. He doesnāt understand the making love, lovey lovey dovey, crappy stuff. Having sex with his s/o means something to him, but the romantic side of it just fly over his head.Ā
J: Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon) Ā
Considering his huge sex drive, Kid masturbate a lot.Ā
If youāre around and in the mood, then, heād rather fuck with you than jack off. But if youāre not there, or not willing to have sex, heāll just use his hand.
Everytime he sneaks around alone, you can be sure heās jacking off and his crew already walk in while he was giving himself a little self-care time.Ā
K: Kinks (One or more of their kinks)
Humiliation/Praises : Calling his partner a whore, a slut and feeling them tightening around his cock. He likes to see how flustered he can makes you with his words. But if youāre not into degrading stuff, he doesnāt mind using praises, like "look at you, taking all of my cock so well,Ā thatās my girl", "thatās it, just take it all", "you feel so good around my cock" , "your pussy tighten around my cock, it wonāt let me go, you like my dick that much?", "be a good girl and stay still" Etc
And he expects you to praise him as well. Tell him how good heās fucking you, how good his cock feels inside you. And call him Captain in bed and you will have a lot of orgasms. Heāll make sure of it.
Anal sex : As I said in his dirty secret, Kid likes how tight anal sex feels. It always makes you flustered and he needs a s/o willingly to do anal sex from time to time.Ā
Pain : Well, Kid likes rough sex, everyone will agree with this fact. He likes to slap your cheeks, your ass, biting your neck, choking you lightly, pulling your hair. And he also loves when you scratch his back, pull on his hair and even bite him. It will make his cock throbbing inside you.Ā
Public sex : Kid likes to fuck you in a public place, the risk of being caught is a turn on for him. Itās just so naughty and sexy in his mind. But letās be honest, if someone caught the two of you fucking, he wouldnāt give two flying fucks and just continues to thrust inside you. Feeling you tightening your walls around his cock because of the embarrassment will even make him growl and pound harder. Ā
L: Location (Favorite places to do the do)
As long as he can fuck you, the place doesnāt matter. Most of the time, heāll fuck you in the bedroom or in his workshop, with you bending over his desk.Ā
He also likes fucking you on the deck, it matches his public sex kink. Heāll bend you over the railing, so hey, itās quite romantic, to watch the sunset and the ocean while heās plowing into you like the wild animal heās.
But letās be honest, Kid will fuck you anywhere, anytime. This boy isnāt picky. As long as you give him your consent, the place doesnāt matter.Ā
M: Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)
The rush of adrenaline after a hard battle. Heās just so horny after a fightĀ
Whenever he needs to release some anger or frustrationĀ
If you tease him, especially around of people
If he watches you fight. Itās hot, to watch his lover fighting and it always makes blood rush down to his cock.Ā
If you wear his red coat. It flustered him, but also makes him horny. Same if youāre wearing one of his shirts.Ā
If you want to have the ride of your night, just wait for him in the bedroom, wearing nothing but one of his shirts wide open on your bare chest. Or wait, naked, with his coat on your shoulders. Damn, it will drive him crazy.
Seeing his lipsticks smeared on your face or neck.Ā
N: No (Something they wouldnāt do, turn offs)
Anything involving piss or shit.Ā
Sharing is caring, but if he ever accept to have a threesome, the guy will never have the right to fuck you. Your pussy belongs to him, and only him.
Being tied up. Kid hates feeling inferior or weak. If youāre his lover, heāll only accept to be tied with something in metal, so he can take it off whenever he wants and take back the lead.Ā
Anything involving waters. He feels weak in it, even in the shower. He needs to feel powerful.Ā
Pegging is not a total no, but it will only happen with his lover and when the relationship is stable and long enough. He knows where his G point is, and please, heās a punk, he LOVES non-conformism. But being vulnerable, laying on his back with his legs spreads or on all fours, his muscular ass up, chest against the mattress while youāre pegging him ? He really needs to trust his partner, because heās afraid to ruin his reputation. Probably a bit overwhelmed and embarrassed at the end of the experience, but it was good. Please, reassure him than having that kind of experience has nothing to do with virility and that heās still the dangerous and well-known Eustass Captain Kid.Ā
Roleplay : itās so ridiculous and humiliating for him, he canāt.Ā
O: Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.) Ā
A receiver, not a giver. Watching someone kneeling before him, sucking his cock, even gagging on it, damn, itās just feel so good.
He bucks his hips, fucking your mouth. If you drool all over his cock, itās even better.Ā
If you can deep throating him, it will make him cum really fast. His cock is big, not everyone is able to take his full length and girth. Just imagine this man losing his mind, cursing and throwing his head back while you deep throat him.
He, unfortunately, doesnāt go down on you often. But have you seen how this guy likes to show his tongue and lick his lips ? He knows how to use it, I can smell it. If youāre a one night stand, youāll have to ask for having you pussy ate.Ā
If youāre in a relationship, especially if itās the first time you two are fucking together, heāll go down on you, lick your pussy and drink your juice, making sure youāre wet and ready for him. Go ahead, grab his head, pull on his hair, he likes it. Considering how stubborn heās, he will keep going and only stop after you cum at least once against his lips.Ā
P: Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual?)
Fast and rough. This man is a beast.Ā
He always needs to release some anger or stress, so heās always rough while fucking you. Even more with a one night stand.Ā
He doesnāt want to hurt you, still. But his pace will never be gentle and sensual. But heāll adapt to whatever youāre able to take it.Ā
He likes hearing skin slapping against skin, sounds of your wet pussy, leaving bites on your body. For him, sex is messy and rough.Ā
I can only see two ways to force Kid to have slow sex :Ā
If youāre a virgin and a one night stand : heās pissed off. He wants to have fun, not to be anyone first time and all the craps it involves. So just take your clothes and get out of here. Yeah, heās mean.
However, if you two are in a relationship, he doesnāt want to hurt you and knows his pace is not adapted for a virgin. He will do his best to take you slowly, in missionary, holding back himself. He wants to make you feel good and as you continue to fuck together, progressively, your sessions will be more and more rough and messy. His strokes would be really long and deep, hitting all the right spots. Imagine him, with his jaw clenched, sweats dripping from his forehead, growling huskily, the muscles of his arms all tensed as heās trying his best to not slam roughly inside your tight pussy. Damn.Ā
If you challenge him, like, betting heās not able to fuck you slowly, this man will have the slowest pace ever, just to prove youāre wrong. At the end, he won the game and youāll be frustrated by how slow and torturing his thrusts are.Ā
Q: Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.) Ā
He likes quickie, but not that much. Letās be honest, if you ask him a quickie, the answer will always be yes.Ā
But he prefers proper sex, because heās always 100% implicating in what heās doing, so he wants to fuck your properly.Ā
During quickie, Kid will bend you over something or carry you against a wall, skip any foreplay and just slams himself into you, his lips against yours to muffle your screams.Ā
R: Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)
Kid likes to experiment, but only with his lover. With a one night stand, he wants to be in control and proves how good heās. If you ask him to do something he has never done, then, heās not willingly trying.
If youāre in a relationship, he can try some stuff and fantasies, but donāt you dare laugh at him if heās not doing great the first times you two tries something new. It will really hurt is pride, he gets pissed off and less inclined to try new stuff.
Concerning the risk of being caught, well, Kid doesnāt give two flying fuck.Ā
S: Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they lastā¦)
His stamina is perfect, he can last for a while. Good luck.Ā
Even with his rough pace, he can last easily 20 minutes of intense pounding.Ā
Youāll be tired before him. Heās quite observant with you and will notice when you really canāt take much more.Ā
His sessions are intense and you always end up breathing harshly and sweating, with your legs shaking.Ā
Kid knows how to hold back, but you can make him cum quickly with anal sex or deep-throating.Ā
T: Toys (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)
He hates toys. Are you saying heās doing the job so poorly, you need a toy to cum ? Okay, heās pissed off.Ā
If you want to have a toy during your solo masturbation session, then, feel free, he will gladly create any toy you want with his DF. But when you two are fucking, no toy.Ā
It hurts his pride.
The poor baby has a lot of pride.
Maybe he can have some fantasies, like a handmade vibrator. Heāll ask you to keep it inside you during the day and from time to time, heāll use his DF and watch you trying to keep a cold face in front of others while the toy tease your G point.Ā
U: Unfair (How much they like to tease)
He likes to tease you, especially with dirty talk. Just because it always makes you tighten around his cock.Ā
He will also tease you a bit during foreplay. He loves when you beg for his cock.
But due to his lack of patience, Kid is not the kind of guy to tease during hours.Ā
In public, if he canāt fuck you, he gets frustrated and tease you as a way to release some frustration.
If you want to tease him, feel free, but heāll show you absolutely no mercy later, pounding into you like a fucking beast and growling about how naughty you were earlier. And if you try to squirm, heāll hold your hips and growls to stay still. You earned this, so shut up and take it. (But of course heās not a total dick, if you need him to slow down or even stop, heāll listen.)Ā
V: Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)
This man canāt do anything in silence. Of course heās loud.
He grunts a lot, talk dirty, spank your ass, all of the time.Ā
He doesnāt scream. Just grunt and curse a lot. Just imagine him, with his low, husky voice, grunting close to your ear.Ā
He likes to hear you scream or moan for him. So please, do it. The louder, the better.Ā
Tell him how good he's fucking you, how huge his cock is stretching your walls and Kid will be more than happy. He's a simple man, overall.
W: Wild Card (Random headcanon)
After sex, if youāre in a relationship, he falls asleep really fastā¦ and even if heāll never admit it, he likes to be the little spoon. Just hold him firmly and tenderly from behind and let him be the little spoon, please.Ā
X: X-Ray (Letās see whatās going on in those pants) Ā
Pale dick, pink sensitive head. A few veins along the shaft, but not that much.
Kid is a big and large guy, and considering how bold and cocky he acts, his cock is long and thick af, he needs the right back-up lol. He knows heās big and heās hella proud of his own cock.
Length around 17/20cm (7/8 inch). And the girth is scary. Good luck if itās your first time.Ā
A shower, not a grower.Ā
His balls are proportioned to his cock size and heavy.
When he takes off his pants down for the first time in front of you, heāll probably grins while watching your scared or excited face.Ā
Y: Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)
High. Really high.
Kid is kinda always angry at something and he needs to release his frustration with sex.Ā
He can fuck you multiple times in the same day and still be ready for more. And his refractory period is really short, too. So good luck.
In a relationship, Kid needs someone with a huge sex drive too.
Z: ZZZ (ā¦ how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
Will snore 5 minutes after collapsing on top of you.Ā
After fucking you like a beast, he feels relaxed, his anger is gone (at least for now), same for his stress or frustration, so heās sleepy. Heāll just clean himself quickly, or not, and fall asleep.
He doesnāt like pillow talk, but if youāre in a relationship, heāll try to make an effort.Ā
If itās a one night stand and not at home, heāll leave and fall asleep once heās back to his ship.Ā

Hey, hope you're doing okay. I hope you don't mind me asking, but I am rather new to the mattdrai fandom and I couldn't help but wonder:
Was Matthew really as bad as a lot of fic lead to believe in his earlier hockey years in Calgary? And was he really disliked in the room - where there rumours like that? So many fics build on this premise, and seeing him now in Florida and hearing all the nice things his teammates say about him and seeing the things he does himself and the insane good hockey he plays... it's hard to believe.
It's so strange also that it's so rarely mentioned that Leon was the one to be sent down to the minors, not Matthew.
Plus what I don't get: matthew is a lot hotter than Leon? why is it always told like Leon is the hottest dude on earth while Matthew is nothing? comparing early pics and pics from now... it's just not true? Leon looks good, a bit bland IMO, but Matthew is and was just hot in a very unique and special way. maybe because he isn't that bland generic good looking Leon is? But good looking in a special way? so that got a lot longer than I thought it would, hope you don't mind the ask.
i don't mind you asking at all! this is basically my roman empire so MY apologies if this gets unwieldy but i have FEELINGS about matthew's early fic portrayal lmao
in his six years on the flames, matthew was always one of the top five scorers.
his rookie year, he was sixth in rookie scoring
the season he was picked for his first ASG, the flames were 16th in the league at the time all star rosters were announced and matthew was their top scorer.
so it's not like he was the best player from a bottom of the league team or going because he was the home town boy, he was a playoff team's best player (both at the asg break and when the season was eventually suspended because of covid).
and even in his career worst year (2020-2022), he ended the year as their third best scorer and only six points behind johnny (the leader). and as one of calgary's beat reporters said in his end of the year review, Matthew was "good, but not quite as good as the Flames needed him to be."
so i've never really understood why people were portraying him like that either and still haven't figure out if most of it was unreliable narrator kind of stuff or if some authors actually thought he was bad before he had his breakout season, but it doesn't reflect reality.
as for him being disliked in calgary, that all stems from jake muzzin flipping the puck at him, and the subsequent players only meeting that took place after it, in which matthew allegedly told the team he was upset they didn't join him in the scrum after and he was then told him it can't be a riot every night.
before that there were never any rumors that i'm aware of that he was unliked in the room, and in 2019 gio, who most people tend to think is the one who told matthew to tone it down, said this about another players only meeting:
so while the 2021 players only meeting was a story because matthew wasn't playing like his usual self afterward, i've never thought it was indicative of him not being liked by his teammates. and honestly, you have to take it all with a grain of salt anyway because while guys obviously bullshit the media, at the practice after the players only meeting guys talked about how there was a general lack of emotion, and how they came out there trying to have fun with each other and put it behind them, and in the postgame the next night, gio specifically sites getting into scrums and mixing it up when asked how much more emotion they played with in that win compared to earlier losses, so if mixing it up was good the very next night, the math doesn't quite add up, yk?
but johnny did confirm in his spittin chiclets appearance about two weeks after the muzzin incident that matthew was pissed after they left him out to dry that night, and when asked about matthew's struggles that season darryl sutter said matthew needed to, and would, get back to playing to his identity, so the whole cause and effect of the muzzin incident on matthew's play that season isn't completely unfounded, but i do think multiple guys saying the team needed to play with more emotion, johnny saying in the chiclets episode that the guys skating off didn't find out about the puck flip until they saw it on sportsnet and saying he felt bad about it, and the new coach coming in and getting matthew to play back to his style shows that it wasn't as personal as it was made out to be.
anyway, the flames may not have be as tight knit as the panthers are, but matthew had his people there. he's bffs with hanifin and his friendship with sam bennett is part of what drew him to florida. johnny always says great things about him, blake coleman called him the heartbeat of the team, and was such an important voice in the room that the flames suffered when he and gudbranson were no longer around to tell sutter to chill the fuck out when he was being too hard on guys in the room.
he probably wasn't close with every teammate, most people aren't friends with all their coworkers, but he wasn't some sort of loner in that locker room.
as for the looks, that's all down to personal preference. leon is definitely very conventionally attractive and while matthew has definitely glowed up in the last few seasons, he was by no means ugly. i wouldn't even say he's really unconventionally attractive either. he's got a good face and was a cute teen and people who are like "oh no i find matthew tkachuk attractive now" have literally never made sense to me. but again! personal preference and all that.
again, my apologies if you weren't looking for THIS MUCH of an answer to your question but this isn't even all the sources i pulled up when i first got this ask so i did TRY to keep it short lol

I brained
ANYWAYS I had an idea of how to rewrite Nexus's villain arc. I didn't really care for it either way, so these are ideas to make it more interesting (at least to me).
I write this with the intention to follow the TSBS writing rules that I am aware of, but I don't know many soā¦ my bad ig.
(This also got long, can you tell I like writing shit like this?)
First of all, what did I not like about Nexus? Well, like many, I wasn't all that fond of the rate he became evil. I didn't like his motivations, which is somewhere between wanting to become an unstoppable powerhouse and wanting control of his life? I think?
Not bad motivations, yes, but how he got to those motivations? Mmā¦ noā¦
Another thing I wasn't fond of regarding Nexus would probably be his behaviour as a villain, and the lack of respect everyone gave him. Nexus, and other characters, take himself and his goals quite seriously.
Nexus is a threat.
However, he doesnāt act like one, nor does anyone else really behave like he is. Half the time it feels like they're watching some snot-nosed kid sharing his new war story he made with his plushies.
Thirdly, the whole prior arc Nexus had going on before becoming Nexus just became irrelevant. Now, I don't want to sound too much like a conspiracy theorist, but this drop in care for Solar happens to have been around the time shipping discourse got really bad. Just before I joined the fandom, essentially.
Anywho!
So here is how, in hindsight, I would have written this (Please, please, please remember that I have no ill will to the writers or anything. Yes I'm disappointed with Nexus, but in all honesty this arc was not the absolute worst and it had its very good moments. I'm just sharing my own ideas).
Taking how focused Nexus got on reviving Solar, I would have his villain arc more focused on it.
His old motivations:
Power
Control
New motivation:
Bringing back Solar/Keeping His Family Safe
Don't worry! This still encompasses power and control, but in a way that links back to his previous behaviours.
First event Iād change would be when Nexus kidnapped Earth with Bloodmoon.
Quick disclaimer, I skipped through that set of episodes because I was like, four straight days into trying to watch every lore vid and hadn't been to school for any of those days, but to better align that event with how I'm changing Nexus, it'd have to be Lunar or Sun that got kidnapped.
Why? Well, Nexus actually had a good relationship with Earth and him thinking of her as mere collateral makes no sense. On the other hand, Sun and him had a rocky relationship at the time and from what I can tell Lunar and Nexus weren't incredibly fond of eachother.
Plus, Nexus could justify attacking Lunar as he thought Lunar would've been strong enough to take it or protect himself specifically.
So now Nexus is floating in space; angry, hurt, dejected, haplessā¦ and who should come to his rescue but Dark Sun? In this version, Dark Sun would offer Nexus shelter and anything he wanted as long as Nexus did some tasks for him. Hysteric and grieving, Nexus agrees to go with him.
Nexus is definitely hesitant about the Dragon and Dark Star Power. As long as Dark Sun and Nexus aren't about to kill each other at every turn that should work and stay somewhat the same as canon.
If you can't tell this is (so far) sticking to canon progression as much as possible.
Moving on, Monty brings back Moon just the same as canon. The only difference is that it takes longer for Earth to warm up to Moon, considering she hasn't heard the best stuff about his attitude.
Skipping to when Moon and Nexus meet, I imagine there'd be heavy miscommunication between Moon and Nexus. Moon would leave the conversation assuming Nexus doesn't mean well for anyone in the family and Nexus would leave the conversation assuming that they had never liked him and were only waiting for him to leave before replacing him. Both their hackles would be raised.
When Solar is revived, he immediately asks about Sun and Nexus, because they were the last people he saw. He then immediately follows up with the rest of the family. Upon hearing about Nexus āturning evilā, Solar goes into denial, refusing to believe it until he sees it.
How I imagine Solar and Nexus meet is as follows: Dark Sun gives Nexus another task, data collection. Nothing harmful, he assures. Nexus obliges because these tasks are essentially how he pays rent, and he can't leave yet. While waiting for the data, Nexus decides to pay Moon a visit.
After finding the new address (something that infuriates him, because did the house he bought with Sun just mean nothing now that Moon is back?) Nexus enters and taunts Moon. Teasing turns into a genuine argument between the two, which Solar walks into. Nexus and Solar freeze upon seeing each other, Nexus leaving shortly after.
A quick thing to note, is that around this point, Nexusās behaviour isn't too different, but he's beginning to become very unstable. The reasoning for this is because in this version, the Wither Stormās proximity is causing issues, to both Nexus and Ruin. Dark Sun is fine due to him not being in the dimension for too long, but Nexus ends up actually going insane (or close to it) and Nexus is slowly dipping into insanity. He is not aware of this until it's far too late.
So in Nexus's mind, he's rejoicing that Solar is alive, but is horribly panicked that someone dangerous like Moon is near Solar. So while he spends time making a cell/room for Solar, to keep him safe, Dark Sun manipulates him into using Dark Star Power to further protect Solar.
From then on, Nexus makes several attempts to get Solar to come with him, first with offers, then with manipulation, thenā¦
Then with force as Nexus gets increasingly hysterical.
Other things he'd do, Nexus would still need the wither shards so he'd still go after Sun. He'd also try and get Earth to come with him because she's similarly important to Nexus.
As his mental state deteriorates, heād begin to act more like the Nexus we know, if a little less pathetic. Just a little.
I'm no good at endings and fine-details however, so I wouldn't know what ending to give him. The ending we got works pretty well for this, though it'd be far more adjusted to include more elements of whatever Dark Sun was doing.
