#-Romantic Platonic etc.

[dee-in-the-box]

y'know. had a thought about something.

so like, Dave said he got kicked out of the orphanage young. personally, i put this in the range of when he was 5-7.

now, most of the kids outright ignored him, and most were neutral At Best. there were a few who were nice, but they were in the minority.

but there was...one kid who was regularly nice to him.

at the time, she was a young boy. they spent a lot of time together, both due to being pretty different from a lot of other kids in the orphanage (Dave is obvious, but...she was interested in stories, make-believe, fairytales and folklore and the like). they'd talk about what they wanted to be when they grew up, she'd tell Dave stories, ones she'd either heard or made up herself, they'd play pretend, and for a while, life was good.

then Dave got kicked out, with very little warning. she didn't even have time to say goodbye.

she got adopted, eventually. changed her name, transitioned, and went on to live a good life, all things considered. opened a book store, wrote some of her own stories, not unlike those she told in the orphanage. (some of them- many, actually -contain a reference to a boy she hasn't seen since she was small, whether as a small background character or as a secondary protagonist)

but some days, she thinks.

some days, Fujiko wonders what became of the purple boy she met at the orphanage all those years ago.

Hi. ISAT comic blast.

Drawn for an art trade with @beneathsilverstars. I warned you that I was going overboard. You now get to see just HOW overboard I went.

Me: I don’t think the relationship between Jayce and Viktor can be taken as only romantic considering how deeply their destinies are intertwined, and how awkward it feels to put a label on something so vast-

Someone: yeah lol why can't they just be friends there's no need to make them-

Me: actually I also think they fucked nasty in their lab and in the arcane and that they repeated confessed their love for eachother and kissed with tongue right before they mutually blew up.

Platonic, Sonic and sibling reader, Sonic reacting to Shadow showing signs of liking reader, and just him being an over protective older brother about it. Also extra funny because imagine your sibling just casually holding hands with your biggest rival

i love crack

“Not On My Watch!”

Pairing(s): Sonic the Hedgehog & Sibling Reader (platonic), Shadow the Hedgehog x Reader

Requested: Yes (by an anon).

Description: No one knew Sonic had a sibling, let alone a twin sibling that looked nothing like him. So why did Shadow feel so strongly for someone related to that faker?

Notes: This one has potential to be both funny and cute so I’m excited to write this one! Also sorry for always introducing Reader in the same way-

(Reader will be gender-neutral.)

(Not proof-read/beta-read.)

It was your typical day for Sonic and Shadow.

Get into a race, start sparring, somehow get stopped by Eggman, be forced to work with the faker, save the day.

Except this time, it was different.

They defeated the robot like they usually do, but Shadow was badly injured, and a large piece of metal from the robot almost fell on him. Shadow could barely move, so he squeezed his eyes shut, expecting the hit, only for it to never come.

He opens his eyes, expecting to see the faker’s smug face, but instead, it’s someone else’s.

Yours.

You’re a hedgehog just like him and Sonic, but you seem to excel in strength rather than speed.

And he’s mesmerized by you.

“You alright?” you ask him.

“I’m fine,” Shadow states, turning his head away and avoiding eye contact, controlling his blush that threatens to cover his face.

You shrug and place the metal down next to you.

“You sure? You look like you’ve been through hell and back,” you tell him.

“I said I’m fine,” he spats.

He feels your gaze on him, causing him to feel uneasy.

“Yo! [Name]! What brings you here?” Sonic asks after rushing over to you and Shadow.

“([Name]…I’ll have to remember that.)” Shadow thinks to himself.

“I happened to be in the area and thought I’d come see my…” you start, dragging out the ‘y’ before you pull Sonic into a headlock, giving him a noogie. “Annoying twin brother!”

“Ach! Assault! Shadow, help me!” Sonic says dramatically. “I’ve been ambushed!”

“Fight your own fights, faker,” Shadow tells me. “Since when did you have a sibling?”

“Uh- Since birth! Duh!” Sonic says, like it’s the most obvious thing in the world.

“Did you really not tell anyone about me???” you ask him. “I think that earns you another noogie!”

“Noooooo! Spare meeeee!” Sonic says, laughing as you give him another noogie.

“Anyway! I’m gonna keep exploring,” you tell him, releasing Sonic and pointing finger guns in their direction. “Make sure you get that cute friend of yours bandaged!”

“(Cute?!)” Shadow thinks to himself, desperately trying to keep the blush from rising to his face and ears.

You wave goodbye to them both and jog off.

Sonic waits until you’re out of earshot to say anything about your comment.

“Did they just call you cute???” Sonic questions. “There’s no way my sibling called you cute.”

“I don’t understand it myself,” Shadow mutters.

“Are you blushing?!” Sonic asks.

“No! You’re seeing things!” Shadow states, his face tinted green.

Sonic lets out a groan.

“Touch my baby sibling and I’ll kick your butt,” Sonic threatens.

“Oh no. How threatening,” Shadow says sarcastically. “Why don’t you let them date who they want to date, faker.”

“I’m not having them date some faker!” Sonic states, causing Shadow to roll his eyes.

Unfortunately for Sonic, Shadow had the world’s best love-advice giver living with him.

Rouge the Bat.

“Sooo, spill the beans. What do you like about them?” Rouge asks.

“Well, they’re just generally attractive,” Shadow starts, Rouge nodding along. “Not to mention they risked their life for mine, they’re a strong person, and…I feel like we’d make a good match.”

“I could set up a date for you if you’d like…For a price,” Rouge states.

Shadow pulls out a decent-sized diamond from his quills, causing Rouge to gasp.

“DEAL!” Rouge states.

A few months and many dates later, it’s official. You and Shadow started dating.

Now Sonic had to deal with you talking constantly about Shadow and see you two hold hands.

How’s that for a faker, Sonic?

platonic relationships in media are actually so much more important to me than romantic ones. not sorry

back with another headcanon!

The drawing originally stemmed from the idea that Grian would sometimes act/prank Scar as some sleep paralysis demon in the middle of the night in his watcher form! But only for a reason (unless he was feeling really mischievous that day). The first it happened—it happened because Scar kept hogging the bed, and Grian ended up falling off (which as you can tell, he was very upset about that).

Then it became a regular occurrence (but not incredibly regular) and Scar started to slowly get used to it

gay people can never be normal it always gotta be some shit like and the thought of their ancient friendship stung his heart

I love drawing people cuddling cuz its like a fun little puzzle, deciding where everyone's limbs would be and what the positions theyre in say about the situation and their relationship dynamics. Theres so much that can be told without ever saying anything

[read-write-thrive]

platonic and romantic are not some sort of binary that relationships have to be divided into. they’re not even two ends of a linear spectrum. they’re fully just abstract concepts made up of culturally-dependant social behaviour and expectations that are continually forced upon people to reinforce religious, legal, and broader societal/cultural norms, often and repeatedly to the detriment of non-normative groups including, but not limited to, the queer community. and I am sick and tired of those norms being replicated in fucking fandom discourse, of all places

recently rewatched the episode of rebels where ezra goes to tatooine and i am now haunted by how much ezra and luke's lives would've changed if they met that day. not necessarily changed for the BETTER but changed nonetheless

; give me messy qpr, give me qpr that don't work out, give me qpr that have ups AND downs, give me qpr that end in sadness, give me qpr that are " young love " and die out, give me qpr that are toxic

; give me queer platonic relationships that are actual relationships between people and have ups and downs and don't always work, not js fluffy " awe these two are great friends " !!

I think John Ward deserves to break down a little at the end of FAITH bc he just destroyed the cult that groomed him since childhood and abused him and his childhood friend, he's managed to protect everyone he loves, he's realized God's been with him the entire time, he has fred all the souls that were taken hostages in the rite of the second death, and he has been forgiven by the very person he wronged. He deserves to break down a bit, after things have calmed down, as Lisa and Garcia both hold him as his falls on his knees and his shoulder shake and he holds his crucifix close like he's hugging it and he wails like a child and as the tears fall on the cross once bronze, they leave golden streak, cleansing his vision of it, cleansing his heart.
