#And any of my work that involves her will stay in a positive or neutral light because we don't need more negativity in this fandom

Addressing The Tinhatters: A Statement in Solidarity With @dtmsrpfcringe And Others

I've been active in this fandom for a little over a year, and in my time here I've kept my slate pretty clean. I try not to involve myself in drama and discourse, and when I see something I don't agree with online, most of the time I keep it to myself. I've been aware of the blogs I refer to in this post basically from the onset, but I've stayed quiet, partially to not come across as disrespecting others' opinions and preferences and partially to protect my peace and my own life as a creator. But what started as mostly harmless, if a bit unhinged and delusional, behavior, has turned on some fronts into unimaginable cruelty the likes of which I never imagined this fandom to be capable of. As someone who it seems people in this fandom have come to respect, I think it would be unfair and selfish for me to stay neutral any longer.

Fanfiction has been a genuinely transformative force in my life. It has helped me discover so much about my own relationships to love and desire, and I would never want to tell anyone that it is wrong for any ship to be that source of inspiration for them, including RPF. Nor do I think, as I've said, that it's inherently wrong to have speculative thoughts about David and Michael's sexualities. As someone who has been lucky enough to interact with David several times now, and probably will again, I choose not to do so myself in a public forum out of respect, but curiosity doesn't have to be invasive, and David and Michael being in loving partnerships with women certainly doesn't mean they can't be attracted to other genders too. There's nothing wrong with liking the idea of a relationship between David Tennant and Michael Sheen, or even, really, with believing they might have feelings for each other. If that's all you're doing, this post isn't about you. What I absolutely cannot excuse is the proliferation of hypocritical, nonsensical, and nasty rumors about the women in their lives.

Nothing Georgia Tennant or Anna Lundberg seems to do is ever good enough. Every expression of positivity is curated and phony, anything that could be perceived as negative vile and mean. I see these women attacked on a daily basis as partners, as mothers, as actresses. Georgia is simultaneously presenting a false ideal of a perfect, happy family for her own gains, while somehow at the same time being too irresponsible and incompetent to be a proper parent. Anna, a still young and up and coming actress herself, is expected to perform the ideal of an affectionate partner on social media, is perceived as unsupportive of Michael when she doesn't, when in reality she may simply be trying to make a name for herself in the industry without people solely associating her with the man she loves. Both of these women share in David and Michael's advocacy for marginalized communities, sometimes in different, more or less obvious ways. David and Michael are always brave and sincere, while Anna and Georgia's actions are always self serving and performative, though no evidence is ever given to indicate that the things they post or charities they support are any sort of cover or deflection. Nor are there ever any reasons given for their perceived lack of onscreen talent, other than that they're "boring" or don't have as many jobs as their husbands- never mind that both of them are in an extremely competitive industry and get perfectly respectable amounts of work, especially for mothers of young children. Worst of all, I've seen them accused of things as awful as child abuse and rape, all for the crime of simply being married to the wrong men. It's all so horribly gendered too, David and Michael often referred to as the "men" while Georgia and Anna are reduced to negative stereotypes of nagging, shallow gold diggers. As a fandom populated with so many queer people, many of whom, myself included, have found freedom from gender roles with Michael and David's characters' help, I thought we knew better.

I've been lucky enough to meet both David and Georgia now, and have witnessed firsthand the easy, joyful affection they have for each other when no one of consequence is watching, the way they giddily hold hands on the street and make each other laugh while tenderly looking into each other's eyes even and especially after sixteen years together. Georgia when I met her was incredibly kind, down to earth, and approachable, and my partner, who's met her several times more than I have, gushes about her constantly- how funny, authentic, and intelligent she is, and of course, how much she and David love each other, how they look out for each other and adore each other's flaws and quirks. David of course still gushes about Georgia every chance he gets in speeches and interviews, her strength and brilliance as well as her beauty, and Georgia, while maybe not always as effusive, shows her love for David in plenty of ways, the beautiful candid photos she takes of him, for instance. There's such a soft, painterly tenderness and fondness in them, for the man, not just the dazzling star everyone else gets to see. Her David, gentle, devoted, goofy, aging, melancholy, imperfectly perfect David. Where would we be without Georgia giving us these little glimpses of him? I suspect the same people who deride Georgia's social media presence as try-hard, cringeworthy, artificial, would feel a bit differently if one day they stopped coming.

I can't speak as clearly on behalf of Anna and Michael, but the accounts I've gotten of her and Michael's relationship from eyewitnesses have presented it as no less loving than David and Georgia's, albeit in slightly different ways. Even then, why should I have to? She doesn't owe me anything. I doubt anyone who's made the posts accusing Anna and Georgia of being nasty baby trappers has ever had children. There's no such thing as a perfect mother, and even one child is a massive task. It's normal to not be a shining ray of affection all the time, and Georgia I know more than makes up for it with her fierce love and support for her children in all of their endeavors. Georgia is also a diagnosed neurodivergent woman, and so many of the remarks I see directed at her are clearly discriminatory and often directed at women with her diagnoses. Everyone coos over how charming David is when he shows signs of being AuDHD, but the second his wife does too, she's careless and cold. And don't even get me started on when photos of Michael and David looking anything less than beatifically happy get interpreted as them being miserable due to their wives treating them so poorly. THEY'RE HUMAN BEINGS!!! NEUTRAL FACIAL EXPRESSIONS EXIST!!! WOULD YOU BE A SPARKLING RAY OF SUNSHINE IF YOUR DISNEYLAND RIDE GOT STUCK!!!

I say all this now not even because I think I have any hope of stopping the people in question, but because one of the main fighters on the front of the opposition, @dtmsrpfcringe, has been both a wonderful online friend to me and dealt with even worse abuse than that which gets hurled at Anna and Georgia on the daily. When my blog was briefly overrun by TERFs in light of the Tennant/Badenoch/Sunak drama, Tori was the first person to stand up for me, and as she recieves more vitriol in one day than I've ever experienced in my entire life online, I think I've taken far too long to do the same for her. This woman has dealt with doxing threats, attacks on her character, and most horrific of all, wishes of death upon her and her baby. No one would blame her for stopping, but she has remained steadfast in her mission to call bs where she sees it, and she shouldn't have to do it alone. Tori, I think you are so brave, and I am proud to stand in solidarity with you against the misinformation, meanness, and misogyny that threaten to corrupt this fandom we call home.

Even after all we've been through over the past couple of months, I still believe the Good Omens fandom and David and Michael's individual fandoms to be places of kindness, empathy, and inclusivity. Which is why such cruel behavior (because there's no other word for it) is utterly disappointing and baffling to me. You should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. You're the exact kinds of people David and Michael speak out against on a weekly basis, and I guarantee that if you engage in the kinds of behavior I've highlighted here, they would be disgusted with you. Or maybe they'd simply pity you, because your lives are so empty that you've decided the only way to fill them is to sacrifice the reputations and peace of innocent women on the altar of a relationship that in all likelihood takes place solely in your own heads.

And if you read all this and find you still ship David and Michael, which even I do sometimes, well, there's always polyamory.

I'm sleepy! good night and kindly fuck off! - Lauren

This is my first request so here we go! Can I get head cannons on what it’d be like to be in an OT3 relationship with both Shigure AND Akito in Fruits Basket? Like, how they met, how they established a relationship and how the tumultuous relationship evolved during the course of the anime’s plot? I know it’s gonna be SOO toxic, especially with the crap Shigure pulls, Akito being Akito, and the constant back and forth between the two, being the middle piece in their game is gonna be such a pain emotionally, physically, psychologically, any way you can think of. Also the s/o is gender neutral.

There have been some changes to the original plot of the manga to adjust this storyline better. Also, this is quite toxic but that should come to no surprise. I'm also obviously not going to remember some of the stuff that happened in the Anime so this is a shortened version.

Falling in love with the same darling

🐕​⚫​From a very young age on, you have been working as a maid in the Sohma estate with your main tasks always involving catering to Akito's needs. Akira assigned you specifically for this job as you were only 2 years older than her and he wanted her to have someone around her age to befriend. Even years later you remember how you were brought to Akira and Akito, the little girl hiding behind her father's back as you walked in. Akira had been a gentle and kind but also terribly gullible man from the few memories that you have but his love for Akito had been there, even if perhaps a tad bit misguided as she was the God of the family. He beckoned Akito to step forward as he introduced you to her, telling her that from this day on you would be her new friend. You were too young back then to understand everything, otherwise you would have stopped him as he told Akito that you'd always stay with her. When the little girl, although back then you thought she was a boy, asked you with big eyes if what her father had just said was true, you didn't think about it. You only nodded enthusiastically and even if she had still seemed a tad bit apprehensive, you saw the hopeful gleam in her eyes.

🐕​⚫​Soon after being assigned to Akito who quickly latched on to you, you met Shigure. He has always been rather weird, even when he was still young. Both of you did not get along well initially, although that was mainly his fault. His feelings for Akito had already blossomed back then and her clear attachment to you elicited jealousy. Back then you had still harbored the mindset that it was your job to be Akito's best friend so you had also felt a childish envy as you saw how close both of them were. You had always been whenever Akito asked any of the Zodiac signs who had already been around at that time for any affection and you'd only realise years later why she had always done that. You had felt entitled of her and her friendship, threatened in your position and in return you grew clingy and tried everything to please her, openly expressing your jealousy. Your behavior was like fuel to flames as she desperately absorbed every affection you gave her and clung as a result only tighter to you. Her father was immensely pleased by this development, ignoring how unhealthy it already was back then and only told Akito that even those who weren't Zodiac signs would love her.

🐕​⚫​The rift between Shigure and you only grew as time passed by, both of you fighting for Akito's attention and love. And it made Akito happy. In fact whenever the words of her mother would get to her, she knew that she always had the both of you and in her growing desperation sometimes she even caused such arguments between the two of you on purpose simply to watch and realise that her mother was wrong. She was loved, even from those who were not part of the Zodiacs and sometimes she couldn't help but have the two of you argue in front of her mother as she gave her a defiant glare to show her that she was wrong. You remember the boiling jealousy when one day Akito showed you proudly the camellia that Shigure had fetched her and told you how he had confessed his love to her, her dark eyes staring at you as she wanted, needed, to see your reaction to it all. You were miffed the entire day about it and the very next moment you returned with a bouquet of flowers yourself and made sure to wait until Shigure was accompanying both of you before you handed all of the flowers to her and promised to always stay by her side. You sealed your fate on that day.

🐕​⚫​When Akira passed away due to his illness, you were there with Akito in his last moments. You weren't supposed to but Akito had demanded you to be there with her, her hand clutching yours tightly. It had made her father happy too to see both of you being so attached to each other and in his last moments he had made you promise that you'd always stay with his child and had reminded Akito one last time of her special existence that would make everyone love her. You'd been her shoulder to cry on when both of you were left alone, the tears only falling when she was only in your company. She had clutched the material of your yukata as she had begged you to not leave her like her father had just done and you had promised her once again that you would stay with her until the very end. Then Ren stormed in, furious that she hadn't been informed of Akira's death and had lashed out at Akito, screaming that she was unwanted and that everyone would leave her eventually. You can still clearly remember how you yelled back at her mother and insulted her, only fueling her hysteria. You still remember how your teeth sank into the flesh of her hand when she struck you, refusing to let go.

🐕​⚫​There were screams, the ones of ther maids but above all Akito's own hysterical screams all of a sudden when Ren tried to hurt you and you only scratched and bit her more until you could taste blood whilst your own nose was weeping with your own. It took more than a handful of other maids to separate the two of you as Ren was escorted away, still cursing at you. Akito was in that moment instantly by your side, crying and yelling as she screamed at the other maids to cater to your injuries even whilst you reassured her that you were fine. You were adviced to stay in bed for the rest of the day and Akito refused to leave your side the entire time. She sat there with you, ate her meals with you and even drew and played board games with you. You ended up with scratches all over your arms and your face, bruises and swollen lips from Ren but it made you almost proud when you heard that you had done some damage on her too. You found Akito often staring at your face, more often than she had done before, and when you asked her if she was sad about your injuries, she said something that caught you off-guard. That she felt happy. Happy because you had gotten so aggressive and hurt for her.

🐕​⚫​Her mind had been made up forever after that. She only focused on you from that day on. Whilst she was still possessive of other Zodiac signs, they became a second priority as you were from that day on her main focus. You were always kept by her side for the entire day and she even demanded you to sleep in the same room as her. Seldom did you see her mother but when you did, Akito almost appeared to show you off, even if her grip on you tightened. Ren could only glare at you silently as the physical wounds may have healed with time but her ego had been forever damaged by you. One time she approached you with a dangerous glimmer in her eyes but Akito was the one who stopped her this time. It was the first time that you really noticed how damaged Akito had become as she threatened her own mother and gloated gleefully in front of her how she had been wrong and that you loved her even whilst not being a Zodiac member as she pulled you closer to her side. Even when Shigure came over, her focus was always on you and whilst the smile on his face always stayed, you could tell from his eyes just how much you started grating his nerves.

🐕​⚫​Akito deemed you to be the person most important to her and that was something that didn't sit right with the young man. He wanted Akito for himself but you were in the way. He needed you to betray her and break her heart. If he could make Akito hate you, he could take your place. In hindsight it was truly frightening just how far Shigure had always been willing to go for Akito but you had luckily always been rather wary of him. So when he suddenly tried to befriend you, you were cautious and careful. He needed to find some weak link he could abuse, something to turn Akito against you. Unfortunately that was hard as Akito had been all you had known your life and vice versa. But perhaps that was how he could approach it. You had rarely left the Sohma estate, never had been friends with other people. Weren't you curious though? Slowly he tried to put ideas in her head, trying to fuel your curiosity to get you away from Akito. And it worked. You had grown a bit older though and even if you still treasured Akito, a feeling of loneliness had gotten to you as your freedom had been restricted to only revolve around her. When Yuki was introduced to Akito, he saw finally a good chance.

🐕​⚫​As Akito got to know Yuki better, he tempted you to go outside and leave her side more often. Shigure convinced you to even leave the estate with him as he introduced you to new people and encouraged you to get to know them better. It was strange yet also exciting to meet other children in your age range who weren't Akito and you befriended them rather quickly. You even told Akito about them excitedly, oblivious to the way she fidgeted with her fingers and bawled her hands into fists as your joy was like a stab to her heart. You wanted her to meet them yet the moment those words left your lips, she rejected your offer harshly. Upon noticing your startled expression, she quickly added that it wouldn't be wise for her to leave the Sohma estate. Her heart grew sick though as she finally learned why you hadn't spent as much time with her as you used to and when she approached Shigure in search for comfort, he used her growing heartbreak as he told her that he had seen how happy you were with your new friends. She cried in his arms, wondering what had happened as you had always been so close with her. You loved her. You had to love her.

🐕​⚫​Torments from her mother increased when she asked Akito where you were whenever she saw her, her taunts only serving to slowly break Akito further. Her temper got considerably worse and Yuki, the one who spent most time with her as she tried to take you off of her mind, got the worst of it even when she apologised afterwards to him. A part of Akito wanted to tell you desperately about it yet she didn't because she wanted you to figure it out yourself. You knew her best afterwards. So why didn't you notice how she felt? When Kureno's curse suddenly broke and Akito lost a bond that defined her existence, she was finally pushed over the edge. She feared that everyone's curse would break and that you, the one who wasn't bound to her in any way, would be the first one to leave. Shigure's own words only poisoned her young mind further. The next time she saw you, she dragged you to her room with a surprisingly tight grip on your wrist and forced you to stay there with her. There she then broke, yelling and sobbing as she grabbed your face and forced you to look at her. You had betrayed her! You had broken your promise! You promised to always stay by her side!

🐕​⚫​Never again were you allowed to go outside again after that. Akito has kept you by her side ever since that day as Shigure's plan only backfired as she has grown incredibly possessive of you. The other Zodiac signs are the only people you still see sometimes, although Akito makes sure to even reduce the contact you have with them. The bitterness of you having dared to make other friends when you always had her has festered inside of her and has never allowed her to let you get close to others. Kureno and Shigure are the ones you tend to see the most, although even then you are never left alone by her. There has been tension between Shigure and Akito for a while now too though and that is mainly because you have told her that it was Shigure who introduced you to your former friends back then. She suspects that he has tried to take you away from her and the glares and sharp words she has given him ever since are a telltale sign of her growing distrust. Shigure remains immune to her hostility though as something has seemed to change. He has always focused way too much on you as he used to despise you for stealing Akito. Hatred and love however, are two sides of the same coin.

🐕​⚫​He has grown an interest in you over the last few years and it truly doesn't do anything to better the situation. He flirts with you in front of Akito, the sight of her being possessive and jealous over you something he seems to enjoy as he doesn't mind all the insults and yells she gives him the moment she pulls you closer to your side. Both of the people he finds himself obsessed with are already basically attached to the hip and he likes seeing that. Shigure is already seeing it through that no one dares to to take Akito nor you away from him and one of the reasons why Akito still allows his presence so close to yours is because he is a mole. If he even suspects in the slightest that someone is interested in you, Akito is always the first to find out. Most of the time she sees it through herself to send such a person to her mansion and remind them violently that you belong to only her. In rare cases where the person in picture is someone who isn't part of the Sohma estate, Shigure promises her to ensure that they learn their lesson. After all you belong to Akito.

🐕​⚫​Whilst Akito uses violence, intimidation and emotional guilt-tripping to force you to stay with her, Shigure leans much more in the manipulative spectrum of things. Whilst he has yet to claim both Akito and you for himself, he knows that it would be the best scenario if he sees it through that you stay by Akito's side. Not only because Akito will keep you nice and isolated but because he can use both of you against each other to draw out advantages for himself. He can have Akito running to him and begging him for comfort and help whenever he manipulates things enough to give her easily paranoid mind the impression that you think about leaving her for someone else and can be your pillar of comfort when Akito's antics threaten to break you once again. Your heart feels like it is constantly bruised and beaten yet attachment and pity are cursed chains that keeps you by Akito's side. As violent and terrible as she is, she still has you and she thinks often that she really only has you. Shigure murmurs those words into your ears when you are hidden in his arms, abusing your pity to convince you to return to Akito which in return does earn him Akito's grudgingly gratitude.

🐕​⚫​Then the singular worst thing happens to you and it changes things for all three of you. First it happens with Akito who has grown into a woman who has to pretend like she is a man. She has needs, needs that need to be satiated but she only wants one person to cater to her most private needs. She wants you to take care of her. You've always taken care of her after all. She is needy and desperate for sexual affection but at the same time remains highly demanding as she forces the sexual relationship on you and thus reveals to you that she is a woman, a secret she has kept from you for years but now doesn't care to keep it hidden from you anymore. It messes with your mind as you are unable to deny her requests, the shackles of guilt and fear forever around your heart from that day on. You confide in the only person you see besides Akito and it only leads to your second downfall as you entrust Shigure with the news. He soothes you, coaxes the tears out of your eyes whilst comforting you yet there is a jealous gleam in his eyes. It truly is rather disgusting of him to feel that way, especially since he should be relieved that you lost your virginity to Akito and she hers to you.

🐕​⚫​His mind works in dark and twisted ways though as he feels like he has been robbed of something he would have loved to claim for himself. He can't help but wonder from that day on how you would look beneath him and soon his desire spurts him on to do something perhaps even more terrible. On a particular night where you are especially vulnerable he convinces you to have a few drinks with him as he keeps on filling your glass whilst you babble about your feelings and emotions until you are completely drunk. You only remember faintly sweet words coaxing you to his room, hands undressing you and lips traveling across your body and dark eyes expressing his weird co-existence of envy and pleasure that it was Akito who claimed your body first. You are awoken the next day by other maids who knock against the door of his house and inform the both of you that Akito has demanded for both of you to appear. Your heart drops as you look with panic in your eyes at Shigure who only gives you a grin as if he doesn't care about what he has done to you. Akito is weirdly silent at first when both of you arrive but the tension threatens to suffocate you.

🐕​⚫​She slowly approaches you, her eyes roaming over your body. The moment she demands you to kneel, your body reacts instinctively as you kneel down and look with fearful eyes at her. Hands caress your hair for a few seconds before she grabs a fistful of it and yanks your head up, screaming at you. Tears and snot drip down your face as she insults you, shames you and reminds you that your only worth is serving her. The one task you were assigned to yet have failed miserably. Your eyes silently beg Shigure to help you as he has gotten you into this mess yet he just idly watches and you feel sick to your stomach when you realise that he won't help you. You are thrown around, slapped across the face and yelled at for minutes before he finally speaks up and carefully advises that Akito should take it easier on you since you are on the verge of a panic attack. That is when she snaps her attention to him and you can only watch through sobs and tears as he receives the same treatment. Your throat feels like it is closing, you feel like you can't breathe and your whole body starts trembling uncontrollably as you witness how she banishes him from the Sohma estate.

🐕​⚫​Things are never the same again. It all has broken with no chance to fix the damage that has been inflicted. A small part of you still loves Akito but everything has been tarnished and stained by all-consuming fear. You flinch when she tries to touch you, your mind letting you see the maniacal gleam in her eyes on the day she found out that you had slept with Shigure and are constantly on edge as you have to endure every single day with her. There is no thing called privacy anymore as she has deemed you as someone she can't trust anymore. You sleep in the same room as her from now on, often she demands you to share even the same bed with her, and even showers are taken together. She doesn't take well to the fear you feel for her. She either reacts violently, desperately or just leaves you whilst muttering insults. Often it is all three in a random order. Emotionally you are already broken but even physically Akito tends to get so blinded with rage that she strikes you or throws something after you only to yell for her maids the next moment when she realises what she has done. Sometimes she tries to clean and bandage your wounds herself, her touches rough and her hands trembling slightly.

🐕​⚫​Most of the time you spend just silently accompanying you as you start changing. You don't care anymore about others and don't try to speak up for them. When Kana and Hatori ask Akito for her allowance for both of them to marry, you don't interfere when she flips out and hurts Hatori. Instead you wait for her to calm down herself, grasping her hand the moment she returns to your side and demands for your support and affection. You know by now how it goes. After every outburst of hers she will drag you to her room where you spend an hour or two giving her affection and helping her to calm down before she regains her composure again. You seek Hatori out later and apologise to him though, although he doesn't hold it against you. You haven't seen Shigure since he was banished but you have overheard some maids mentioning that he has sent you letters. Letters, which never made it past Akito who ripped all of them apart but you know that he would be smart enough to know that and probably only sends them to rile her up. You'll never forgive Shigure though for using your drunken state against you and for messing with your vulerability like this.

🐕​⚫​Your heart is in your throat when Shigure one day appears again and gives you a wave as if he has done nothing wrong. He's here to ask Akito if a girl named Tohru could live with them and to your surprise Akito agrees to it. Her grip on you is tight as she glares at Shigure throughout the entire conversation as his eyes never leave your form, almost relishing in the way cold sweat appears on your skin as you are once again exposed to being in the same room as both of them. He tells you with a smile that doesn't look sincere to you that you should visit them and meet Tohru since she is such a lovely girl. Akito has started shaking next to you and you can only clutch her hands tighter in silent hopes that she'll keep it in as she growls at him to leave now. A last warning and for a few dangerous seconds it looks like he considers making her snap before he seems to decide for the better and bids both of you goodbye, reminding you one last time of his offer. It is yet another bait he has been given as Shigure silently counts on the fact that Tohru's presence might help him to get closer to both Akito and you again, even if he has to kindle Akito's doubt and jealousy.

🐕​⚫​Akito brings her with you when she visits Tohru's school to meet the girl herself and brings you along. You keep your gaze low for the most part of the meeting as you know better than to give Akito any reason to be triggered. That is at least until the girl calls you out herself, her voice concerned and her eyes sincere as she asks you if you're feeling well. Kindness. Real kindness that almost has you tearing up before you feel Akito's hand grasping your wrist and squeezing it dangerously as she tilts her head and tells Tohru that everything is fine with you, forcing you to repeat her words as her grip on your wrist is a dangerous reminder. You're rather surprised when you see Yuki again and he shares the sentiment as he tries to rescue her before she starts taunting him. The moment Tohru pushes Akito away to stop her verbal torment though, you instinctively reach out to catch her, although Tohru was gentle when pushing her. Akito is rather pleased by your gesture as she tells you later in the car when you are sandwiched between Shigure and her, your heart racing dangerously in your chest as the two people who have hurt you the most are both sitting next to you yet you con only swallow your tears.

🐕​⚫​When the Sohmas enjoy their vacation during the summer, Shigure makes another move yet again as he convinces Akito to join them. Kureno and you accompany her. You do nothing as she torments the other Sohmas because you know that you would only make things worse for yourself and them. The entire time that Akito and you spend there, Shigure subtly tries to manage to get you for himself. He offers to show you around the house he's staying in and to give you a brief tour of the area. Akito denies you everything though unless she is with you and if no one else is around. It is quite obvious that she doesn't want Shigure and you to be left alone as she fears that both of you would betray her once again. Realising that, he still remains by your side like a leech as he decides to use the chance to the best of his abilities. You can't help but think that he's provoking Akito on purpose though when he asks how the both of you have been doing and aren't allowed to say anything as Akito answers all questions for you or simply forces you to produce the answer you know will please her. Shortly before both of you have to leave again, she meets Tohru and declares her status to her.

🐕​⚫​For some reason Shigure worms his way back inside the Sohma estate despite having been banned. The way he looks at you makes his skin crawl and his words, even if carefully veiled to hide their intentions, hit their target as he forces you out of your numb shell and gets you to express some emotions around him despite your attempts to ignore him. He doesn't really mind if you hate him. He just won't allow you to ignore and forget about him and if he has to torment you to do that, he will gladly do so. Occasionally he brings Akito and you some presents though, although his intentions are unclear. You think you fear him more than Akito in such moments where he hands you a bouquet of flowers because you have known Akito long enough to predict her somewhat even despite her impulsive temper. Shigure on the other hand has always shrouded himself in mystery and has never made his intentions obvious. You feel like you're walking on eggshells when he is around and the man knows about your feelings. He can't say that he hates it though as he finds odd enjoyment to see you so skittish around him. At least it means that he has an impact on your thoughts after all.

🐕​⚫​Slowly the curse of every member breaks though and the more it happens, the more do you find Akito growing more unstable. She grows even more hysterical until you feel like you can't breathe in her presence anymore. She runs away after having stabbed Kureno in the back as she reaches the peak of her instability and you do not follow her as you instead call an ambulance. You instead wait for her as you don't dare to leave the estate without her specific order. You aren't overly familiar with the city outside either as you have been very sheltered and would probably get lost outside if you were to run after her. It's Shigure who brings her back and the moment she sees you, she nearly causes you to topple when she throws herself at you, sobbing into your chest. Shigure is ushered away by the other maids as you find yourself in the familiar position of comforting her again. Only that this time is different. She confesses to you what had occured after she had run away, about Tohru and how she fell down the cliff before she asks you a question that makes your heart stop. Do you hate her for everything she has done?

🐕​⚫​You are unable to give her an answer to that question and expect her to lash out but that doesn't happen. Instead she almost seems to reflect on herself when she notes your inability to give her an answer. She requests of you if you'd like to come with her when visiting Tohru, afraid and unused to go anywhere without you yet not directly forcing you. Ultimately you decide to come with her as both of you visit Tohru who offers her friendship to the both of you and after that both of you visit Kureno who forgives her when she apologises to him. She seems to try to better herself but you know that it must be hard for her. Both of you have one way or another grown dependent on each other as she doesn't really know what to do without you and you essentially feel the same. She feels uneasy and anxious if she doesn't have you within her sight and you don't know what to do with your life either if you don't have her with you for a certain period of time. That is when Shigure finally decides to step back. Initial tension soon leads to both of them confessing their feelings for each other which then finally leads Shigure back to both people he has been wanting for essentially his entire life.

🐕​⚫​Akito isn't used to sharing and even if she does her best to mend her ways, old habits die hardly. She struggles to split your time, time she has been having years for herself. Especially since you do not want to be left alone with Shigure as the encounter from years ago is still very fresh in your mind and you prefer the devil you know over the devil you don't. Shigure doesn't respect your boundaries though as he constantly invades your privacy and follows you around. He has been waiting years for the moment where Akito would finally let him back and he plans to use every single chance to be with the both of you. It isn't like he doesn't know that he has traumatised both you and Akito but this is his own way of expressing his twisted feelings for you. He corners you, trails behind you and uses every chance to have a few moments alone with you. One time you snap at him and ask him through tears if he has no shame or guilt for what he has done. He confesses to you in that moment that he is fully aware of his wrongdoings and admits to being a terrible person but also tells you that he doesn't really regret anything he has done. It is a horrifying revelation that has your stomach churning.

🐕​⚫​At the same time Shigure clarifies though that he doesn't expect you to forgive him for what he has done to you and Akito. Knowing that both of you are now his is enough for him. Things don't really get better for you even if Akito is now attempting to be a better person. She has allowed Shigure back in her life and since both of you are still learning to get rid of the mutual separation anxiety which will probably never fully go away, you also find yourself stuck with Shigure. With his desires finally fulfilled, he may be less inclined to be a fulltime jerk but Shigure is still a terrible person who fully embraces his wickedness. His goal now is to ensure that you do not leave him because you don't feel the same way Akito feels about him. You love Akito though and wouldn't leave her side, especially since he knows how much both of you struggle to exist without the other. And he uses that to his advantage as he doesn't plan to assist in getting rid of the separation anxiety both of you have. There's nothing wrong with remaining attached after all. So even if Akito works on herself to be a better person, the relationship remains strained and toxic, especially with Shigure who will step low to keep you by their side.

AITA for wanting to stay in an important team position?

(For reference: 🎮🎮🤖)

(Sorry for the long post and any bad grammar!!)

So i (16F) am in a robotics team at my school, we take part in a pretty big national and global competition called FIRST.

recently my team got through to national stages, which is a MASSIVE deal, not exactly an everyday occurrence.

Our robot requires two drivers, one for the main body, and one for the arm. The whole time we’ve had the robot working, i have been the arm driver (apart from a couple lunchtime sessions where other people tried it out briefly) and took part in the actual qualifying rounds. I’m also the CAD designer so i designed the claw part and know what i have to do to make it move in the correct fashion and not damage it. My friend Pen (not any real names ofc) is the main body driver and has spent so much time working on the robot no one is disputing her driving.

The problem comes in with two people - Plane and Bolt. I’ve never particularly gotten on with Plane, while ive been kind of neutral with Bolt. There’s no active hostile feelings with us at the moment, but they have been pretty aggressive to people in the past, gatekeeping roles and new people joining - they had a huge fight on the team group chat over it with my friend Keyboard. They also tried to stop Pen (who was originally doing software) and another person in our team (ill call her Remote) from being engineers, but im the end Plane and Bolt did none of the hard work, doing very easy things while Remote and Pen were left doing all the manual work on the body, while i attached the arm.

Both Plane and Bolt decided in the week before the qualifying event that they wanted to drive the arm, and that we should rotate at the event. Thankfully the supervising teacher got involved and told them no, i had put in the time, he guessed maybe they could try do some more practise before the national event. Me and Pen were drivers in that and are now in the top 19% of global drivers, which i am insanely happy about. Despite being ill the day of the event, Plane was the human player, which means you still get to be around the field while not directly touching the controllers or the robot, but can help.

The first session after the event, Plane comes up to me saying how badly she wanted to be the driver and she was going to put in the practise. I told her that I didn’t want to be mean, please don’t take this the wrong way, but it depends on what our teacher says, and really, it’s a matter of skill. Me and Pen have had the time practising together, it’s not a personal attack on you. The next event is only 8 weeks away (a lot of that is holiday) so im really sorry, but it’s not up to me. You’ll have to take it up with the teacher.

She was obviously not happy with this and walked out of the room without saying anything else. I’m panicking that I was too rude but she’s been far more aggressive to me before and I haven’t got super pissed at her for it?

The rest of the team apart from Plane and Bolt agree with me, and I really want to stay driver because honestly I enjoy it. It’s something im good enough at as well, and I don’t super enjoy just sitting in the audience feeling useless.

Tumblr, AITA?

What are these acronyms?

Adoration

(Vega x Reader)

A very drunk Vega begs for your attention.

reader is gender neutral, and any physical traits are excluded.

Vega returned to Japan for affairs involving Shadaloo. You knew this could mean anything... but it most likely meant an assassination. As one of its Kings and as a being of intelligence, he could be trusted with the business side of things as well as the social. But Vega’s tasks rounded up to ending someone’s life either efficiently or with extreme sadism. Either suited him just fine.

He also brought you along. Were the two of you something of an item? Perhaps that’s what the jet or hotel staff thought. He knew how to flatter pretty things and it was even better when they were strong enough to capture his attention. He thought of such worthy people as investments. He chose you mainly because of your uniqueness. It was something different from the beauty he normally saw. Yours was your own and couldn’t be captured.

This both excited and frustrated him.

Vega, drunk, lied across the sofa in the hotel room, arm thrown over his head as if in a dramatic reenactment. Normally when he was inebriated he remained entirely composed and coherent, yet this time the drink was much heavier. And his exhaustion didn’t help.

After all the time he spends crafting the perfect mysterious, unaffected persona of a Lord of Shadaloo who often has his own schemes... and here he was in quite the vulnerable position.

Vega’s eyes rolled over to you. “Come here,” He croaked out, raising a hand to beckon you over.

You set aside your shopping bags - and sensitive documents on the target. They were actually in this very hotel, wiretapped, and the plan was to stay up and prepare. Though, you weren’t sure how he was going to manage this now, and you approached him with a raised brow. “How much did you drink? You’re leaving me to stake out your target?”

You set up that tap yourself after disguising yourself as a cleaner, which involves knocking out a real one and taking her clothes then placing it back on her and making it look like something had simply fell onto her head when she came to. That took effort on your end and you were hoping the rest would be picked up by Vega...

Vega waved your concern anyway. “Don’t be so stern. That will give you wrinkles.”

You rolled your eyes. “What do you want?”

Vega rose from the sofa and gently captured your hand in his, bringing it to his cheek. “Brush my hair.” He insisted.

“Hm?”

“Do it.” He ordered, then gazed up at you with a sigh. “Won’t you?” He asked in a gentler voice.

Surprised that he insisted, and furthermore trusted you with this, you stepped into the bathroom for his brush - one of them anyway, from where he put up his supplies. You returned and loomed over him a bit and, carefully picking out a lock of his hair and brushing through it slowly, keeping your eyes on his expression. He looked unbothered, so you gathered more of his strands and started to brush from his scalp as well. He let out a content sigh after about five strokes, then unexpectedly reached for your hand again, brush still held. “All of it, dear.” He said, gathering out the rest of his hair for you. You continued, starting at his roots and working down. Some of his hair was tangled understandably from his previous fight, but he voiced no displeasure at you working through them. Instead, he closed his eyes and hummed out his exhalations.

“When should I stop?” You finally asked.

“Keep going. And tell me how much you like it.” He ordered. “My hair is beautiful, is it not?”

How needy, you thought. But the strands were quite lovely and had a pleasant scent. You were impressed with how long but tidy he kept it, running softly against your fingers. Whether it was brown or bleached, the way it always seemed to flow caught your eye.

“It is.” You agreed. It was quite a sight. “So soft, too.” He hummed out his agreement, and you kept going. “I love how long it is. Your braid is cute, but I want to see it down more.”

“Do you?”

“Yes. You should.” You insisted, brushing your fingers through the length now and then twirling a lock around your finger. He whispered out something you didn’t catch, but you kept going. “If you ever wanted to curl it too, that would be nice. I wouldn’t want you to put your hair through anything you didn’t want, but I think it’d look good.” You allowed the lock to effortlessly escape from around your finger, moving like silk. “It’s so soft.” You commented again, forgoing the brush and running your fingers through his hair now.

Vega huffed.

“Cut it.”

You stopped. “Sorry?”

“Cut it all off.” He ordered. “Get my scissors. Or even my claw. And cut my hair.”

“You can’t be serious.” You blinked, looking over the drunk man.

“Or do you like my hair more than me?” He frowned, now facing you as he sat completely upright on the sofa.

How dramatic he was. He stared at you with upmost seriousness and yet you still couldn’t believe it. “You told me to compliment your hair!”

“Yes, and?” He huffed. “I shouldn’t have to tell you anyway - why did you keep all those comments to yourself?” How shitfaced was he? He was acting childish now! He took hold of his brush and plucked it out of your grasp, tossing it aside. Your eyes instinctively followed the path of the brush, but then Vega seized your jaw and turned it to face him again, and very close this time. “Worship me,” he uttered. “Sing me praises. Tell me you desire me.”

“You’re drunk.” You reminded.

“And beautiful! So tell me that. Now.”

At least you could oblige that, if not so he could release you soon... but staring at him this closely made it undeniable anyway. It reminded you exactly why people thought you were close to him. “Fine. You’re beautiful.”

“More.” He moaned, hand moving from your chin to your cheek.

“You’re the most beautiful man I’ve seen.”

He pulled you down from where you were standing, to your surprise. But maybe you shouldn’t have been. only your hands on his chest and your knees at his sides stopped you from completely lying on top of him. He was looking up at you with a devious grin, and you only frowned at him despite how much your face was burning now.

“Vega, stop.” You spoke seriously. “Am I going to have to work on this alone?”

Your answer came in the form of an impassioned kiss, the heavy taste of red wine on your tongue.

Oh, how the man you chose to love absolutely tested your patience.

But speaking of patience, you supposed maybe this target could wait.

[yuseirra]

I honestly think this is undeniable...;

I mean, if Kamiki isn’t Sarutahiko Okami, then why would the word "noblilty" be used? Why do you think Aqua reacted that way when hearing the name "Ame-no-Uzume"?

If there weren’t ANY divine elements involved, I wouldn’t be saying anything; but, even in the final chapter, they mentioned that the gods probably sent Ruby, didn’t they?

The story of Oshi no Ko is an homage to the Tenson Kōrin (The Descent of the Heavenly Grandchild) from Japanese mythology.

After meeting his wife, Ame-no-Uzume(Ai), Sarutahiko(Hikaru) eventually handed over his position as the sun god to Amaterasu(Ruby). In a way, this meant that his nobility or influence somewhat diminished.

The song lyrics said that he was given a fatal flaw. Contextually, this is Hikaru’s line about Ai; after losing Ai, he developed a defect. This actually parallels what happened in the myths: he’s willing to sacrifice his "nobility" to bring Ai back.

The shrine where the main characters went to make their wishes was the shrine of Ame-no-Uzume and Sarutahiko, and all of the wishes made there came true! I’m telling you, this is all because of Kamiki. Ai is dead! The only god left to grant wishes is this person. He's the Sarutahiko, the god of fulfilled wishes that's become fatally flawed!

This person became a deity who can guarantee results, but he’s twisted to the point of granting wishes in a distorted manner.

These kinds of interactions appear in the story! I wouldn’t bring it up if they didn’t!

Originally, he was a god who guided people along the right path! People pray to Sarutahiko for traffic safety!! But imagine him as a navigation system that takes you to your destination, but the journey itself becomes cursed with misfortune, absurdity, and irrationality now—that’s the "flaw".

That’s why Aqua put his own life on the line to stop this person, to prevent him from ruining Ruby’s and everyone's future.

Ultimately, all of the wishes Kamiki realized or perceived were granted in the end. Socially, he’s completely destroyed. Akane calls him a monster, right? How does a once "noble" person become this wrecked? I don’t get it. The more I study it, the less sense it makes. Looking at scenes where Ai and this person were together, they seemed genuinely happy with each other. In my opinion, they even stayed in touch occasionally. They couldn’t be together because they were too young, but he knew about her pregnancy and she called him on a public phone. It’s hard to believe he’d suddenly turn against her. Ai’s reactions to him were pretty neutral. It’s like Ai was always worried about Hikaru, fearing he might go astray.

Chapter 154 is seriously too genuine. I think Ai’s feelings about him are the most important thing.

She said she wanted to be with him forever...;;

And Kamiki felt the same way. Didn’t he say he wanted to feel Ai forever?

If they’re divine spouses, they’d truly be together forever. It’s really supposed be that way; they’re divine spouses at their core. What Hikaru thought in 153, that was actually what was SUPPOSED TO BE. They were originally like that as gods!!

They reciprocated each other’s feelings, both of them define each other as being the "same" as they are. And neither of them was ordinary. If you examine the lyrics, Ai is the reincarnation of a star, while Kamiki fell from grace. Given that supernatural elements explicitly play a role in the story, this isn’t just metaphorical.

Yesterday, when I talked about this with a friend, they asked,

“Why would he be considered noble? There’s no scene where he saves someone or helps others, and as a kid, he seemed "naive". But there weren't many scenes to see if he could be defined as having nobility.”

Yeah. Right? Just why include the detail that his soul was noble? I’m telling you, it’s because he’s the virtuous god Sarutahiko.

There are a lot of things in this work that can’t be explained without divine elements; that’s why I’ve researched mythology and analyzed things this way—because it makes sense with that being taken into consideration. Without these elements, the story would have too many gaps. But if you incorporate mythological settings, they fill in the blanks.

There’s even talk about shattered souls, which I can explain too! Since I started re-reading this work, the strange song lyrics gave me an inkling that something deeper was there, so I immediately began interpreting it along these lines.

Kamiki is a distorted god that became of "absurdity and irrationality"(seriously, what's been happening around him's EXACTLY that!! Even Aqua turned unreasonable!!), while Ai is "the god who loves people". They were originally divine spouses who blessed and protected the entertainment world, but once they incarnated as humans, things fell into chaos. The protagonists were born as their children to resolve this turmoil.

How else can you interpret this? If there were no reincarnation or divine elements involved, I wouldn’t bring it up. But there’s too much evidence to ignore. Besides, "love" probably held a significant meaning for those two gods.

Tsukuyomi said the entertainment world wasn’t her domain.

I’m telling you, Kamiki and Ai are the gods who oversee the entertainment industry, which is why they each took part as an actor and an idol.

But just like the lyrics, "I've forgotten who I lived as!" and "Remember who you lived with," in Mephisto, they forgot who they were and that they were spouses. Kamiki probably only remembered it after Ai’s death, which made him start searching for people with the qualities to bring light and wandering around collecting light to offer as sacrifices. Judging by the lyrics, without Ai, he'd always lack the light of love and remained extremely hollow. He could never return to the white star or have chances of it—not until he saw Ruby.

I don’t think he truly intended to kill her, but intentions aside, Kamiki has become so dangerous and uncontrollable that he needs to be eliminated. Aqua’s mission is to take him down, which is why he constantly says he’ll have to go to hell—because he has to kill someone.

These ideas may seem far-fetched, but if you put everything together, this is the most plausible explanation. There’s no other way to make sense of it based on what’s shown in the story. I’m right. How else would you explain it?

Ranking potential Kaladin fates from best to worst in my opinion. Obviously this is just my personal feelings:

Desirable Outcomes:

1: My Ideal World:

Kaladin stays romantically uninvolved, but ends up in a position where he is responsible for kids. Maybe he's a teacher, maybe he raises Shadolin's kids if something happens to them, maybe he raises Oradin. He would be great with kids, he's such a protector and I think the unconditional love of a kid would be good for him personally. He is ideal for a found family setup, honestly, and I don't particularly want to see him get paired off with a woman just to create a nuclear family.

2: Impossible but beautiful world:

Kaladin, Adolin, and Shallan polycule. They understand him, they love him, they are both capable of providing him with different types of support and won't be intimidated by his personality. Adolin is an absolutely crucial part of the puzzle here, though. To me, Adolin x Kaladin can work without Shallan, Adolin x Shallan works without Kaladin, but Kaladin x Shallan cannot exist without Adolin because it would be catastrophic.

3. Monster fucker win:

Kaladin ends up in a partnership with Leshwi that is probably somewhat ambiguous but has a distinct romantic undertone to it. They already have a warriors bond and respect/have a vested interest in each others continued survival. There's a deep relationship there for sure. I don't personally see it as romantic but I think it'd work fine if it was. Wouldn't detract from either character.

Neutral Outcomes:

4. The Easy Way Out:

Kaladin finds Tarah again and ends up with her. This feels like the most obvious and perhaps most likely possibility. It's boring, it's uninventive, I don't want to see it happen, but I guess it's fine? It's a nice conclusion to Kaladin learning to live in the present, but it just feels too easy.

5. Windrunner bloodline:

Kaladin gets back together with Lyn. She can do better tbh. I love Kaladin but hes a lot. He also is kind of a traditional type of guy when it comes to gender and relationships I think, and Lyn is the type of woman who wants to break away from tradition. They just don't fit to me. Only reason this happens is because they specifically want Kaladin to marry a Windrunner and have kids that seem destined to be Windrunners also until they're not.

6. Blaze of Glory:

Kaladin dies in book 5 saving someone else. It would be so so so upsetting for this to happen and unfair to Kaladin personally but it wouldn't butcher his character at least. Like it would suck, I would go catatonic, but it'd be like Vin and Elend dying. It seems like a believable fate for him to meet, as heartbreaking as it is.

Bad Outcomes:

7. White Woman Jumpscare:

Kaladin ends up with Laral. What can i even say about this. Childhood friends to enemies to strangers to Kaladin pitying Laral in a way that really pissed her off because of how condescending and patronizing it was. I don't want them together.

8. Chrom's fate:

Kaladin gets married to a random, unimportant woman between books 5 and 6 solely for the purpose of creating plot relevant children that will likely ultimately be used to hurt him.

9. Depressed together:

Adolin dies and Shallan ends up with Kaladin. Any outcome where Adolin dies is unacceptable to me but thus one especially. I love Kaladin. I love Shallan. I love them both in a relationship with Adolin, mutually or separately. But they cannot under any circumstances be allowed to date just each other. They understand each other's trauma and are drawn to each other, but neither of them is capable of helping the other process their trauma while also dealing with their own feelings. It's a relationship destined to crash and burn from my perspective.

10. Hell and hate on planet Roshar

Syl takes a physical form and gets romantically involved with Kaladin. Literally the worst possible thing I can imagine happening to either of them. Their souls are bound together, they are vital to one another, and they love each other, but not Like That. It's closer to a sibling relationship than anything. This particular situation could only arise from a gross misunderstanding of their relationship as its been developed thus far.

All the hearts arranged in rainbow order. And SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES on behalf of The Smiling God

❤️ RED HEART — what are three of your oc's positive traits?

his creativity, his organizational skills, & his dedication to his family

💔 BROKEN HEART — what are three of your oc's negative traits?

his anxiety/self-doubt, his tendency to jump to often irrational and self-deprecating conclusions, & his dependency on others

💘 HEART WITH ARROW — what and/or who do(es) your oc consider the most important to them?

the thing he considers most important is his family. he worked incredibly hard, suffered so much, & literally even died to keep them and have them stay in his life. nothing is more important to him

🧡 ORANGE HEART — does your oc tend to prioritize family or friends?

to Xhura they are very borderline one and the same, but nothing comes above his family. now his family is self-made and not really comprised of blood-relatives (in the strictest sense) as much as it is comprised of people he is close to, but the circles of 'friends' & 'family' have a very large overlap for him

💛 YELLOW HEART — how many languages does your oc speak? what language(s) are they learning, if any?

as a human, or as I will consider 'actively,' two: english and japanese

but as a demon & especially being tied to Barbatos he obviously knows many more should he need them; which I will call 'passively:' so many

💚 GREEN HEART — does your oc prefer being inside or outside?

it kind of depends on the day & on his mood, but Xhura isn't exactly an outdoors-y kind of guy so more often than not inside

💙 BLUE HEART — does your oc have any cool/special powers and/or abilities? how are they with magic, if it exists in their world?

well, he does have a set of primary & secondary wings as well as a tail; inherited from his transformation into a demon following his permanent stay in the Devildom

he's not the most naturally adept at spells—not like Satan for example—but he does have an affinity for passive magic where his connection with Barbatos is concerned. most of his spellcasting doesn't involve incantations when it isn't very specific magic

💜 PURPLE HEART — what is your oc's ancestry/genetic background?

his lineage on his mother's side can be traced all the way back to Lilith and her human children, while his lineage on his father's side can been traced back to a japanese woman named Ryoko; who the Demon King—Diavolo's father—took as his bride

🖤 BLACK HEART — has your oc killed or seriously wounded anyone before? have they broken someone's heart and/or broken someone's trust?

Xhura did kill a man by the name of Josiah Clarke; a sorcerer who led a twisted and misguided cult of angel-worshippers under the guise of 'Michael,' & who kidnapped Ayla (@houselamentation's mc & Lilith's doppelganger) in the hopes of turning Ayla into Lilith through perverse magic

dude had to die. I think that much is obvious

as for breaking someone's trust... well it could be argued that he broke Ayla's trust when he was the one who suggested to Diavolo that she be temporarily barred from the Devildom following the incident involving her developing magic & the Ring of Light...

but that's more a matter of opinion. he thought he was doing what was best for Ayla in the hopes that she would get help

🤍 WHITE HEART — what are three of your oc's neutral/questionable traits?

everything must be color-coded, his eye color changes based on the situation & his mood & who he is with, & he unknowingly named his zombie iguana plushie Spooge & refuses to rename it even though he now knows what the word means

😊 SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES — what are your oc's career/general life desires? what do they want to get the most out of life?

Xhura never really had any life goals once he was forced to move away from japan & his dream of attending university there & becoming a historian was taken from him

now, though, he's fully embracing a future working towards becoming a royal historian for the Devildom, taking great care in his duties as a Lord of Hell, & wants to help realize Diavolo's dream of peace

Scroll past this if you want

Just a personal thing sorry for so much personal stuff. We'll be back to our regular scheduled simping soon I promise

Friendships.. I have had 8 different groups since 2024 started have fights in them. And I wanna talk about that. Let me be clear. I wont choose a side. I'll never choose a side. Unless A. its you vs a stranger B. its you vs one of YOUR friends and you dont mind me getting involved C. Its you vs one of my friends, you're the long time friend, and they were seriously in the wrong (harassment, bullying, doxxing, etc) These are the situations ill take a side and side with you. Anything else I will not. Let me explain. Ill use random names I pull out my a** Lets say Joe and Bob are my friends. Joe has been my friend for 2 & 1/2 years Bob for 6 months. They are friends with eachother. I love Joe dearly they are like a sibling to me. Lets say I introduce Becky to them. Becky is a newish friend known her a month. You following so far? Becky and Bob get into a big fight. heres the issue: I take becky's side: Bob goes off to Joe and talks to him. Joe might end up upset with me and I lost Bob and Joe as friends or get backlash from both of them I take Bob's side: I hurt becky and lose her as a friend and get backlash. I stay neutral because Becky walks away from that fight just having pissed two people off. Shes fine, she doesn't know bob and joe, they know nothing really about her. But me? I'm left behind with the consequences. I'm the one who has to deal with the sh*t show and aftermath and can't move on. I'm the one who will be hurt by it.

and lets say Joe is also mutual friends with Robin, Rachel and Steve. Now thats 3 more friends I have to worry about losing because I chose Becky over bob. Thats 5 people I'd lose out of my life in an instant. I have to constantly play a balancing act and think carefully of my every action and word in these situations. Because I don't want to hurt or lose anyone. Taking beckys side could upend my life. This is why if you get angry I wont take your side or try to make me take your side. I'll always side against you or end our friendship. It doesn't matter HOW long I've known you. I will end it in an instant if you try to force my hand. Because you don't get how hard it is to play this balancing act between 48 different friends for 10 years. Along with many others who are now gone bc it got toxic and I had to do what I had to do.

What WILL I do in these situations: I will be neutral in public and try to calm things down I will then check on both parties privately and try to get to the bottom of WHY the fight happened then try to talk to them to get them to understand the others perspective so they will atleast be CIVIL. You dont have to be friends with my friends, heck you dont even have to like them. All I'm asking is try to keep your attitude in check with them in public. If you can't then walk away. its fine I won't be mad. Being in my group chats, my servers, my shared blogs is NOT a requirement for friendship and I never want anyone to feel pressured.

None of this means I approve or am allowing what any side has done. I do not approve it, and im not "allowing" it. Im not anyones mother or keeper. What happens between you is between you. The most I can do is try to keep it civil and peaceful for EVERYONES sake. because the thing is its not just you in the servers. Its not just you on the blogs, its not just you in the group chats and I have a lot of people to keep in mind. I'm working with what I have and doing the best I can. If Thats not good enough for you then I'm not the friend for you and you can leave at any time. I'm not trying to hurt or alienate anyone but I need you to understand the position you are putting me in everytime you verbally throw fists impulsively if you try to get me involved. This is why I highly appreciate friends like one certain friend who I will not name. because she let me stay neutral, she praised me for how I handled it despite her being one of the parties in the fight. She didn't shame me or try to force my hand nor did she direct her anger at me because she knew I wasn't the party at fault and that I was doing whatever I possibly could at the time. She has my full respect for that. And to the friends on here that have gotten in fights. Please note i do not blame you or the other party in the matter. In all the cases I have seen its been someone misunderstanding you.

Ik they love "codependant besties" stobin (unhealthy but ok) but tbh the idea that Robin automatically hating every person who ever "breaks Steve's heart" (i.e their relationship didn't work out) is the ideal scenario just... makes me wonder what kind of ideas they have about friendship and romance irl.

A little piece of advice passed on from generation to generation in my family: if a friend comes to you with relationship problems, stay neutral. Offer emotional support, yes, be there for them, yes, listen to them, yes, but don't take sides and don't mindlessly agree to everything your friend says. Don't just say "yeah, they were shit, you did good to leave them." Why? Because next week they'll get back together and forgive everything and you are the one left in a bad position because you were the one talking shit about your friend's beloved partner.

If Robin is smart, she'll know not to get involved in stancy drama and not get angry with Nancy in Steve's behalf. She'll know they might get back together any moment now and she won't want to the bad guy there. Even if Steve did resent Nancy (which he doesn't), and wanted Robin to hate her... Robin would be better off not getting involved, taking everything Steve says with a pinch of salt and approaching Nancy with an open mind, especially if she already smells the scent of lingering stancy tension in the air and knows there's a 50-50 chance they get together by the end. Nope, not risking being the bad guy there.

Do I need to explain why this comment is FUCKING stupid in SO many ways?

I really hope not.

[tarosei]

hi there! i came across your blog and i’m in love with your content. was wondering if i could request something involving the league of villains? headcanons of them having a new member join. they’re like really soft and shy so the league is like really protective. — 🦄

L.O.V. AND HOW THEY REACT TO A NEW MEMBER WHO'S SOFT & SHY

headcanons, sfw, gender neutral

ft. tomura shigaraki, himiko toga, dabi.

a/n: hi anon! you're so sweet, thank you very much :) i did each character separately, but if you wanted more broad headcanons then i can do that, too! im so sorry,, ive only done the three lov members im most familiar with D: hope you enjoy nonetheless! and omg this is so late im so sorry- life's been busy.

SHIGARAKI

shigaraki's very skeptical at first. he doesn't have a problem with you being quiet, but your exterior and personality just scream " (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ* ". a few months after you join, he starts keeping you closer to him. he will not admit it to himself, however whenever you're right next to him, he breathes a little easier. he got used to your soft personality, and now he's pretty much addicted. (good luck on trying to get some personal space.) hates hates hates it when any member of the league even look at you the wrong way. he got very protective of you pretty fast, and he going to be even more protective on missions. you're allowed to fight your own fights of course, but he'd prefer it if you stay next to him the whole time.

DABI

i'm so sorry, but he probably hated you at first. he thought you looked too soft to be a real villain:(, and dabi found it very fun to tease you about being quieter/shyer than most people. but every time he saw someone else make fun of you he got so mad. he was the only one allowed to poke fun at you, why can't the rest of the league see that? during missions especially, he's over protective. won't let you leave his sight, ever. you're always with him, so he can make sure you are alright. won't admit it, but you make him a more positive person, and bright up his day with your soft personality<33

TOGA

she loves you. she loves you so much, oh my god. she loves you so much that she won't let anyone make you feel sad, or hurt you. she knows your quieter than the rest of them, but that makes you all the more cuter. and you're so nice! and soft! and precious! she adores you so much. you and toga become very fast friends (or lovers c:). when the league are on a mission, she won't make you stay by her side all the time, but she does want to check on you a lot. unlike dabi, she's not overprotective with you. just the right amount!

my experience with lupron/”puberty blockers”

i have severe endometriosis. i was diagnosed at 16 and had three major surgeries for it before i turned 19. i started birth control for my six weeks long, heavy, debilitating periods when i started having them at 12. by 19, i had tried every birth control under the sun (with no success) -- except lupron. lupron, a gnrh agonist commonly used on males as a treatment for prostate cancer, on women in fertility treatments, on women with endometriosis, aaaaand yup, this is the exact same drug parents let be injected into girls with the euphemistic title of a “puberty blocker.” (i promise we’ll circle back to this hold on) 

luckily, i live two hours away from one of the most accomplished endometriosis specialists/surgeon in the world, and he is so passionate about finding a cure or at least better treatments for women with endometriosis. he’s an obgyn but he literally doesn’t do the obstetrics part, he purely focuses on helping each woman find their best treatment for this disease. he has such a vast amount of knowledge on surgery techniques and surgical robots and different treatment options, and he is incredibly thorough when it comes to informed consent. if something could happen or has happened-- positive, negative, or neutral-- he will tell you about it. in detail. now this is important, because after decades of observing treatment effects and listening to women and researching side effects, his personal philosophy is that the lupron injection should be a last resort. like, after major surgery last resort. if a woman wants to try it first thing, he won’t stop her, buuuut after he gives her all the possible short and long term side effects, she usually is eager to explore other options. 

(enter me) 19, three surgeries, dependent on opioid painkillers just to be able to get out of bed in the morning, and now, a fun new symptom! every time i begin to bleed, my heart develops an arrhythmia and i experience constant, burning chest pain. i begin to violently cough up blood. so, my endometriosis has spread to my lungs, may randomly cause my lungs to collapse at literally any moment, and i’ve exhausted all treatment options. except! lupron. the devil drug. the horror stories i heard from other women were insane, and that was just the short-term side effects. my doctor had to go through the process of explaining both short and long term side effects as i cried in the office chair because i knew that i had to take this drug. there was nothing else left for me, and things were getting worse. so i did. i was on it for a year. you want to know what that year was like? 

i was suicidal, homicidal, and fell headfirst into the most severe and detrimental manic episode of my life. i experienced psychotic symptoms, and that along with the aforementioned symptoms led me to a week long stay at the psych ward. i did not have one day without severe joint and bone pain. i broke three bones, all while running or walking, when i had never broken a bone before. i’m already epileptic, but i had two hospital stays for uncontrollable tonic-clonic seizures while i was on it. i couldn’t sleep. i got night sweats and night terrors. i either couldn’t eat a thing or felt absolutely insatiable. regardless, i was always nauseous and got sick a lot. now, six years later, i still deal with worsening osteopenia, making me at high risk to develop osteoporosis. at 25. and the kicker is, it did shit-all for my endometriosis. it made me sick on top of sick on top of sick etc etc. and i’m not a rarity. men and women from all ages and all walks of life have experienced this and worse, and many people, like me, are still dealing with the fallout of it, years or even decades later. i do not believe this drug should be on the market for literally anything at all.

i was an adult and lupron gave me the worst fucking year of my life. and there are parents letting their HEALTHY children be injected with this at age 12, instead of realizing that if their child is so deeply afraid of puberty that they would rather take a decidedly harmful drug that essentially chemically castrates men and puts women in pseudo-menopause for years, let’s maybe try to work out the cause of that fear in some therapy sessions and group art classes and getting involved in sports or something. i can imagine that it’s pushed at gender clinics without touching on the negative effects too much because, well, lupron drugmakers and salespeople have a history of bribing prescribing doctors with trips, fancy dinners, resorts, or straight up telling a doctor they could earn $100K extra a year just by prescribing lupron to their patients. they went to court and were fined $875,000,000 for it, although i’m sure that’s pocket change for a company who profited $826,000,000 off the drug in 2015 alone, and i doubt they cleaned up their act. if a doctor is willing to give a female child lupron simply because she doesn’t “feel like a girl,” while being completely or even just half-way aware of all the negative side effects of it and backlash it’s received in the medical community, they might as well smear their own shit on the hippocratic oath they swore on, and they should probably give up their license while they’re at it.

And remember to stream “Alcohol-free”!

Category: NSFW and Fluff

Nayeon

“Here!?”

Nayeon wouldn’t exactly call herself an “exhibitionist”, but then again, she couldn’t say she hated where this was going. You and your girlfriend had agreed to hold Twice’s weekly movie night at your apartment as the two of you spent all evening setting everything up for the girls. And it wasn’t until everyone was nearly ready to start did you pull Nayeon onto your lap and a blanket over her legs. She could feel your hardon through your pants as you snaked a hand between the two of you, pushing your pants and boxers down to let your erection breath. A challenging smile grew on your girlfriend’s lips as she moved her underwear to the side, letting you slip in as she sat back down. Stifling a moan as a jump scare jostled the both of you, making her sink further down onto your cock as she tried to maintain a neutral expression. Doing everything in her power to try and ignore the way your alpha-hood pulsed inside of her as she was forced to endure the next hour and a half filled with you.

Jeongyeon

“Stop moving.”

It had been a few weeks since you and your girlfriend had done anything spontaneous. Your mate just didn’t think it would also involve her members. Jeong bit her lip as the grip she had on your arm tightened even more as you made a show of getting up slightly to fix the blanket you had draped over you and your girlfriend. A playful smirk covered your face as Jeongyeon resisted the urge to hit you as the jostling you caused made her stifle a moan. Your cock nestled nicely inside of her as the rest of her members continued to watch the show playing on the tv. Blissfully unaware of the evil you were conducting on their second eldest Unnie.

Momo

“Y/N.”

Planning trips was hard and you had to commend Momo for all the work she did by herself. So you decided to pay her back the best way you could. A persistent blush covered the eldest Japanese woman’s face as she tried her hardest not to show any indication of what was going on as she moved onto your lap the first half hour into the flight. Ignoring the weird but mysteriously knowing look the flight attendant had given her when the plane had hit a bit of turbulence and she had to bite her finger to stifle the groan that threatened to spill out. You couldn’t help but chuckle lowly as Momo scowled, “Y/N, please.” You just shrugged before continuing to watch the movie that was playing on your phone. But after having you inside of her for the better part of an hour she had finally had enough as you rutted your hips into her. Finally bringing over the edge as she shuddered on top of you, silently releasing all over your lap before she slumped back into you. A cocky smile growing on your face as you whispered into your mate’s ear, “Welcome to the Mile High Club, Momoring.”

Sana

“Oh god…”

Sana couldn’t exactly remember what had caused you two to end up in this position but she found herself on her knees in the middle of the living room with a blindfold over her eyes. She could hear you unzip your pants as the strong scent of your alpha-hood greeted her nose as you placed the tip of your cock to her lips. The corners of her lips curled up into a small smile as you pushed into her mouth. Her tongue rubbed along the underside of your shaft as Sana made a move to bob her head forward, but you stopped her with a hand threaded lightly into her hair, “Not yet, baby.” You could see her eyebrows knit together in confusion as you just kept yourself there, and as time passed you could sense your mate’s neediness as her fists furled and unfurled repeatedly against her thighs. You finally had enough of your own self restraint as you jogged your hips forward. Sana met you halfway as one of her hands came up to play with your balls while she took you down to the root, enjoying the feeling of you shallowly fucking her throat as the hand in her hair tensed as you came.

Jihyo

“Patience Jagiya.”

It wasn’t necessarily Jihyo’s fault she had been so busy these past few weeks, she and her members had a comeback to prepare for and all. But that also didn’t mean you were exactly an angel either. This whole thing started out innocently, it went from your girlfriend sitting next to you on the couch, to her hand on your thigh, then somewhere after that you found yourself buried inside the tight walls of your mate’s heat as she peacefully read a book while perched on top of you. You could feel her clench and unclench around you, testing you, you hated it. Your hands were practically fisting the couch cushions as she continued to rock her hips ever so slowly. You could tell Jihyo was enjoying every second of her sadistic teasing as you whimpered into her ear, “Baby, please.” She just shook her head, “No, you were bad and brats get punished.” You let out a scoff that was cut off by the high pitched moan you let out as she dropped into your lap, making your cock dribble some cum inside of her. “You’re mean.” Jihyo just smiled as she got off you, your hard cock glistening and throbbing in the cool air of the room. “And you’re a brat.”

Mina

“Don’t even think about it.”

Mina was okay with letting you have control. But sometimes when she wanted something, she was gonna get it. Labored breathing filled the bedroom as you collapsed on top of Mina, a satisfied smile on both of your faces as she trailed her fingers along your back. Drawing meaningless circles across your shoulder blades as she felt you soften side of her, you made a move to pull out but your mate stopped you as she suddenly flipped your guy’s positions so that she had you pinned beneath her. A look of surprise on your face as Mina sat up on your lap, “Don't move.” You raised an eyebrow in confusion before she began gyrating her hips, a shocked gasp leaving your mouth as you made a move to stop her. “W..wait.” But the Japanese woman simply ignored you as she could feel you attempt to get hard again, “I said, ‘Don’t move.’.” You whimpered as you could feel yourself growing to a second climax, a pained moan leaving you as you weakly came inside of your girlfriend. A pleased smile grew on her face as she kissed your nose, “Goodnight, Y/N.” She laid back down on top of you, your cock still inside of her as you shrugged, ‘Tomorrow morning should be fun.’

Dahyun

“What if someone sees?”

Going to the beach on a hot summer day was a good idea. Or so Dahyun thought it was. The two of you had arrived early enough to find a small secluded spot on the far side of the beach that was blocked by a small cliff, leaving the two of you in your own little world as you held Dahyun to your front as she peacefully read her book. You spent the last two hours placing kisses along her neck and your hands inching closer to the inside of her thighs, and you could tell your actions were starting to affect her by the way her thighs were rubbing together and her scent was building. A frustrated groan leaving your mate as she threw down her book, “What do you want Y/N!?” You smiled coyly, “I just wanted to see if you wanted to have a little fun?” Your girlfriend’s eyebrow raised in interest, “What did you have in mind?” Dahyun was now filled to the brim with your cock as you had her sit back against your chest, her breath stuck in her throat as she tried to stay as still as possible, “By ‘fun’ I didn’t think you’d mean this.” You smiled coyly, “Well, what did you think I’d suggest?” She shrugged, “I don’t know, Marco Polo?” You let out a laugh that made you bounce slightly, causing Dahyun to rock on your hips as she let out a squeal. “Oh god.” You sat back as your hips finally stilled, “There’s more where that came from. We have all afternoon, Dahyunnie.”

Chaeyoung

“Kinky.” (I slightly apologize for the amount of puns in this)

Chaeyoung was always done for a little exploration. She just wasn’t expecting it on a train to Busan. The two of you were on a midnight train and things were quite monotonous in a train car all alone together, so the two of you decided to spice it up. It didn’t take long for one thing to lead to another as Chaeyoung was lowering herself onto you, her ass stretching to accommodate the small amount of discomfort you caused as she sat flush on your lap. And that’s all the two of you did for the majority of the time until your girlfriend began to get squirmy on top of you, her anal walls clenching around you when you decided it was time to give her what she wanted. Ensuring that no one else was around you bent your girlfriend over the train seat as you railed her into the padding. Your combined moans filling the train car as you bottomed out inside of her and came, your reached a hand around to play with her clit as you felt her walls contract around you again. Content sighs leaving your lips as you sat back into the seats.

Tzuyu

“Hush.”

It was understatement to say that nine people alone wasn’t a lot of people. But it wasn’t enough that Tzuyu had to sit on your lap to “make room” in the jacuzzi. It had happened so fast that you barely registered what your girlfriend had done as she innocently sat onto your lap. Only it wasn’t so innocent since she had freed your alpha-hood from your bathing suit and pushed the bottom of her bathing suit aside and took you inside of her. Your breath caught in your throat as Tzuyu grinded down into you ever so slightly as your hands flew to her hips, trying your best to resist the urge to take her then and there. But you held back as you continued your conversation with Jeongyeon and Momo about new cafés opening up around the city. You almost forgot you were a cock deep inside your mate as she began moving up and down suddenly to splash Nayeon and Chaeyoung who were opposite her, making you grip on her hips tighten as you felt the knot inside your stomach come undone as you suddenly came inside of her. A surprised look took over both of your faces as she turned around to stare at you in disbelief. A dark blush covered your cheeks as you buried your face into the back of her hair, Tzuyu was totally gonna make you pay for that later.

[hazard-and-friends]

out of order response by what's on the top of my mind: the problem with both the body blocking and the non-negotiable sit is that for Hazard and 2 of the 4 reactive rovers in my most recent class those exercises involve spacial/social pressure and they would completely disconnect. if at the start of our journey I'd told Hazard "you need to sit, stay in a sit, every time you get up I'll reset you, no I'm not going to pay you for it", he would've politely told me to get fucked and refused to engage with me in that location possibly for the rest of forever.

(aka: turn away, stop sitting on cue, tuck tail, refuse treats when offered, possibly go under a chair. notably this would do absolutely nothing to his feelings about other dogs/people, except that I would have no way to get him back on track.)

that being said, I can think of a team in that class who would have benefited from a "default heel and step across her line of travel if she gets out of place", because the dog in question is spatially oblivious and would not be particularly upset by her person suddenly getting in her way. so it's an exercise going in my toolbox but I'm probably reserving it for specific teams and not the class as a whole.

(I agree that in general doing exercises out of context helps neutralize them for the dog and make it less a "I am punishing you for screaming at a dog" and more a "oops I got in your way, Again, maybe you should fix that?". Hazard is just out here on the border collie end of the spatial sensitivity scale and has made me hyper aware of what I'm doing with my body.)

anyway, I also have people come in individually for the more challenged classes (reactive rover, control unleashed), everyone's behind visual barriers. my first exercise is getting them settling on a mat but I could easily try replacing that with the "treat for noise" one, because the goal is the same--get 4 highly aroused dogs to all shut up at the same time.

I also use the "what do you love about your dog" as an ice breaker/set the positive tone, it works very well for that. all of my facilities are "get the aversive off the dog as soon as safely possible", but there's a lot of muscle memory in the humans and god knows you can certainly deliver leash corrections on a flat collar or harness. so always trying to replace "pop the dog" with literally any alternative behavior (.........should bring m&ms to class, DRO anything but leash popping). I can see where body blocking would be helpful there! I'll keep pondering it.

lmao I also regularly get to look like an idiot in front of classes. last night everyone was struggling with sudden movements, so I had them pull open the barriers slightly and then did a bunch of jogging. good for the dogs, made the humans laugh, win/win. (Hazard does a slight weight shift forward. K'seil by the time I've noticed is already moving, rip.)

in theory we also have a shy dogs class but there's a lot of "the best defense is a good offense" dogs who end up in reactive rover, and also the shy dogs class is offered at a bad time whereas RR is a weekday evening and fills instantly. yay? for better or worse I very rarely have classes where all dogs are on roughly the same page. it certainly keeps me on my toes.

increasingly convinced that reactive dog owners should do a session of a self defense class

almost every one i see has two underlying problems that have nothing to do with their dog and everything to do with them

1, can they assess the threat level of a situation and do they understand how to raise/match/lower intensity in order to change the risk of violence? i talked about ways to handle off leash dogs in class last week and felt like i was going insane trying to explain that using spray shield etc increases tension because now the owner is mad that you just "pepper sprayed" their dog.

2, do they have literally any body awareness. can they balance on one foot. do they understand how to use their weight. it's not that i can't be pulled forward by a large dog, but especially if i'm in the mindset of "i'm walking a potential bite risk", it's very unlikely they'll get more than one step from me. and i am tall and i do have muscles, but mostly i know how to set my weight at the end of the leash so even a 150 lb dog can't make me move too much.

and like. we CAN talk about this in class but i'm not a self defense instructor/martial arts instructor, i've just had 7 months of jiu jitsu and got some things beat into me. but oh my god.

[starglitterz]

If it's not much of a hassle, can you make hcs for Xiao, Diluc, Albedo and Razor with a gender neutral s/o that is really sweet and positive to everyone and anyone (They even are polite to hillichurls if you let them), but they suffered a tragedy, long before they met them, and they ended losing all their family.

hello !! one order of a donut coming right up ! i hope you enjoy it, and ty for ordering from quill's dessert cafe 🍧

🍩 genshin boys with a sweet/positive s/o who has a tragic backstory

feat; albedo, diluc, razor, xiao x gn!reader

warnings; mentions of death, nightmares, spoilers for diluc's backstory

albedo.

albedo was always fascinated with your behaviour, as he wondered how a single human being could contain so much joy and positivity. you were like the sunshine in his lonely days at dragonspine, bringing so much light and warmth with you whenever you visited him. he sometimes ponders how lucky he was to end up with someone like you, who was so incredibly kind and caring to everyone. however, he did have to step in when you tried to politely ask a lawachurl to stop attacking you both during one of his expeditions.

as the two of you had only started dating recently, you were still testing the waters and getting to know each other better. hence, he was still unaware of your past, and he found out in a rather strange manner. it happened during one of his rare trips to mondstadt. the people there all respected him and he was treated well, but he preferred the peaceful solitude of the icy mountain. he was calmly strolling around after checking on timaeus' progress in his alchemy studies when he bumped into kaeya. "oh, albedo! how are you?" the cavalry captain asked cheerfully. "i'm alright. have you seen y/n by any chance?" albedo replied. "isn't today 'the day'?" kaeya looked at him confusedly. "what do you mean?" albedo furrowed his brow. "you know, the anniversary of their family's death. it's not like you to forget something so monumental, albedo," kaeya couldn't resist teasing him. "it's not so much i forgot that i didn't know at all," the kreideprinz muttered before bidding kaeya goodbye and returning to his camp at dragonspine.

albedo spent the rest of the day pacing up and down his workspace, unable to properly concentrate on any of his work, to the point where even sucrose was concerned. "uhhh, mr albedo, are you okay?" unfortunately, albedo was too involved in his spiraling thoughts to hear her, and so sucrose was unintentionally ignored. rip sucrose

albedo personally disliked maintaining relationships, but you were the exception. however, this situation was just proving his belief that they were far too difficult to keep steady. a million different thoughts were coursing through his mind; why didn't you tell him? he felt so guilty for not being there for you on a day that was evidently important to you. were you going to be upset that he found out? was it a big secret? how did you manage to stay happy all the time even if your entire family had passed away on the same day, leaving you the sole survivor?

when you visited him that night, albedo wordlessly pulled you into a hug, stroking your head gently as some method of comforting you. "albedo...?" "y/n, i'm truly sorry that i wasn't there for you today. i know it must have been hard for you to go through on your own, but i'm here from now on. please don't be afraid to lean on me for support, i'll try my best to help however i can," albedo rambled, eager to get the words out before you could interrupt him. he had been planning what to say all evening. to his surprise, you giggled softly before pressing a kiss on his lips.

"so, i suppose you found out, huh?" "yes. i'm sorry if you didn't want me to know." "no need to apologise, 'bedo, i was planning to tell you soon anyway. i've always gone to visit my parents' graves alone, so i didn't think of bringing you along in the first place. perhaps next year you can come," you grinned before saying, "only if you want to though!" "i would be honoured," he replied, intertwining his fingers with yours, "i believe partaking in something so personal would serve to bring us closer, and that is something i wish to achieve." you smiled at him, "me too."

albedo wouldn't pry into your past, as he understands that you probably don't want to dwell on things that have already happened and instead wish to focus on the future. however, your sunny disposition only impresses him even more now that he knows what you've been through, and he is very glad that you chose to stay happy and honour your parents' memory by living to the fullest. he is still most definitely going to accompany you on adventures whenever he can though, because he doesn't believe that you won't try reasoning and asking the hilichurls nicely not to fight.

diluc.

diluc seems like such a stoic and intimidating man, so the people of mondstadt often wonder how he ended up with a cheery person like you. however, their opinion doesn't matter to the both of you, for you know diluc's hidden soft side which he doesn't show to anyone else, and you know that he loves you, and really, that's all that's important.

the two of you had been dating for quite some time, but you did not talk about either of your families. it wasn't as if you tiptoed around the topic like it was an elephant in the room, rather you both simply did not mention it, basking instead in the warm feeling of love that seemed to envelop you two whenever you were together. your conversations ranged through everything under the sun, yet never strayed even remotely near the specific area of blood relationships. and although you both noticed it, you never mentioned it, thanks to a tacit understanding between you.

one stormy night, you were staying over at the dawn winery, and sharing diluc's huge comfy bed. however, even though the plush mattress was as soft as a cloud, you were being tormented by nightmares that prevented you from having a restful sleep. in your dream, you were reliving the worst moment of your life; the day your entire family died. you were glued to the ground, trapped by invisible binds that you struggled against futilely as you gazed at your simple thatched roof house. it seemed so peaceful, but you knew what was going to happen next, and a silent scream escaped your mouth. a second later, the house erupted into flames, and you were powerless to do anything but watch as tears trickled down your cheeks.

"y/n!" a sharp call of your name awakens you from your slumber, and as your eyes adjust to the darkness, you wordlessly collapse into diluc's arms, sobbing as the horrific memory of that day floods through your mind. he pats your back comfortingly, pulling you into his lap as you nuzzle into the crook of his neck, prompting him to place a kiss on your head. "my father died in front of me," diluc says in the ensuing silence, punctuated only by your sniffing and hiccups, "and the knights of favonius claimed they would act as if he didn't die defending monstadt to preserve their reputation." his grip around you tightens slightly, and you listen to his tale quietly while intertwining your fingers with his to remind you that you're there for him. "from then on, i shunned the knights, and swore to protect mondstadt in my own way." "and thus was born the darknight hero," you poke his cheek, your natural optimistic personality returning to you in the warmth of your boyfriend's embrace. an embarrassed blush dusts his cheeks, turning them as red as his hair, "it's a stupid name."

diluc's expression becomes sombre once more as he looks you right in your eyes, "you're the first person i've told about that." "i'm honoured, honestly," you smile in reply. "i heard you calling out for your family members earlier when you were having a nightmare," he says hesitantly. your face falls and you open your mouth to speak but he cuts you off, "please don't feel like you're obligated to tell me. it's not easy to talk about these kinds of things, trust me, i know. but... just remember, i'm here for you. you aren't alone." maintaining eye contact with you, he lifts your knuckles to his lips and kisses them gently, "i love you." overcome with raw emotion from the outpouring of affection diluc is showing you, you can barely speak, so you kiss him back, knowing it conveys everything you're feeling better than words ever could.

diluc always has your back, and is always there to support you, just like you are for him. he definitely doesn't let you wander off on your own while the two of you are adventuring though, because he's already experienced far too many close calls where you tried to ask an abyss mage if they would mind letting you pass without a fight.

razor.

you and razor had met while he was out hunting and you were exploring, and after helping him, the two of you had become friends. however, razor knew that he didn't see you as just a friend, and hence asked you if you would date him after consulting bennett as to why he felt 'warm and tingly' when you were around him. of course, you agreed, for you had also developed feelings for the mysterious wolf boy.

the positive and cheery energy you exuded never failed to put a smile on razor's face, and a light pink blush would always dust his cheeks when you slipped your hand in his gloved ones. he also adored hearing your laugh, and was constantly ready to leap to your defense with his claymore for when your arguments with treasure hoarders went too far. not that you couldn't defend yourself, of course, you just preferred things to remain civil and hence would not unsheathe your weapon until the very last minute, which by then was already quite late.

one day, razor had invited you to come hunting with him. the two of you were able to wordlessly sync your thoughts and actions to compliment one another, making your hunting extremely effective. today in particular, you had a rather large haul of meat from boars and the like. razor was very proud, and as he clutched the large sack full of the results from your hard work, he grinned, "food for lupical. now lupical is not hungry." his face scrunched up slightly as he frowned, "red burny girl means no dinner," before his expression brightened, "but you are strong. like a wolf. i like to hunt with you. we catch a lot." he rubbed his cheek against yours with a smile and you giggled softly, running your hands through his messy hair, "i like hunting with you too, razor. you're very strong." baring his teeth, he made a mock growling sound and pretended to tackle you, "razor is wolf. grr!" playing along, you acted scared and fell backwards. after a few minutes of playfighting, razor offered you his hand, "come, let's go to lupical. eat dinner together."

the simple shining of warmth in razor's eyes as he mentioned his lupical finally sent you over the edge. you hadn't told him this, but today was actually your family's death anniversary. you had agreed to go hunting with him because you were eager for a distraction, but after hearing him talk about his lupical, you were wondering if that was a good decision. it didn't mean that you hated him just because he had a loving family, it wasn't that at all - you were just rather sensitive to the topic, especially today of all days. so although you tried to stop them, a few tears formed in your eyes and trickled down your cheeks, and though you hastily attempted to wipe them away, razor caught sight of them.

concern flooding his expression, he clutched your hands and looked at you, "y/n, why are you crying?" "i..." you felt such a crybaby, but razor was so kind, and he was such a sweet boyfriend that you felt he deserved to know. and so you told him about your deceased family, and the day a blazing inferno swallowed your house whole while you were adventuring, and about how sometimes it felt like it was just you against the world, and the loneliness that sometimes echoed in your core. razor listened wordlessly, never letting go of your hands and occasionally squeezing them if he felt you were slipping too far into those dark memories.

when you had finished speaking, and sobbed out all the tears you possibly could, razor pulled you into a hug while tracing circles on your back gently to calm you down. as your sniffles slowly faded away, he caressed your cheek softly before saying, "y/n, look here." razor tilted your face to his and leaned forward to bump against your forehead, "you are razor's lupical now. not alone anymore." with that, he offered you a wide smile before tilting his head to the side, wondering if he had said the right thing. unable to verbally explain how much his words meant to you, you flung your arms around his neck and hugged him tightly once more, a smile curving your lips as you felt his arms wrap around you too.

from then on, razor made sure to remind you that he loved you every single day, so you would never have to feel that gaping void of painful solitude ever again. he even accompanies you on all your adventures, although he won't admit that it's because he also needs to keep an eye on you so you don't try to being too kind to an enemy who's ready to hurt you.

xiao.

although the visitors and workers at wangshu inn may scratch their heads when they see you smiling joyfully while talking to the young man on the balcony, pondering how you two ended up together, there is no one else more confused on that topic than xiao himself. why was he, one of the strongest adepti to ever exist, one who had fought in the archon war and emerged victorious, even for the price of indelible bloodstains inked on his hands forever, dating a mere mortal? feelings were fatal, and nothing more than foolish and ephemeral tendencies that would lead to more sorrow eventually. yet as he looked at your grinning face, with happiness shining across it, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. maybe feelings weren't that bad after all.

xiao's quiet, composed disposition quite contrasted with your kind, active one. you always seemed happy, bubbling over with optimism and positive energy. frankly, it was rather contagious, and xiao often felt his worries being swept away when he was with you. in your presence, he could rest, and the thousands of voices in his head would be silenced with a simple stroke of your hand. for a human, xiao thought you possessed an immense amount of power to be able to calm him like this. not to mention, smiles, a rare sight for xiao, would become much more frequent when he started dating you, even if you were the only one who was blessed with seeing them.

usually, you would visit xiao after completing your daily commissions for the adventurer's guild. however, the sun was already beginning to set below the horizon, painting the sky with splashes of red and orange, yet you were nowhere to be seen. xiao clenched his fists, digging his nails into his palms and trying to keep himself grounded, trying to stop himself from worrying for you as he paces the wooden floor of the balcony so intensely verr goldet worries he's going to wear a hole into it. but as time ticks by, xiao decides he cannot stay put at the inn while his mind conjures up a thousand horrific things that may have happened to you.

using his adepti powers, xiao quickly manages to scan the entirety of liyue, placed under his protection by the geo archon, and finds you in an instant. you seem to be at a... graveyard? xiao's heart, which has been hammering against his ribcage like a trapped dove finally slows down to a regular rhythmic beat once more. thank the archons you're safe. he will be questioning you upon your return though, xiao would have hoped that you would at least inform him if you were going to make a detour.

the stars have already begun to twinkle against a navy sky once you finally arrive back at wangshu inn. as soon as you make your way to the balcony, the place where you and xiao tend to have most of your lover's trysts, he sends you a stare that causes a chill to run down your spine. he isn't angry, nor disappointed - xiao was scared for you, scared for your mortal life than can turn to dust within a blink of an eye. realising how upset he must have been, you dash forward and envelop him in a hug. although he normally isn't one for much physical contact, this time he gladly hugs you back, overjoyed that you're safe yet unsure of how to show it.

"where were you?" xiao looks at you, searching your eyes for a hint of the answer. "well... today is actually my family's death anniversary," your voice comes out much quieter than you would have liked as you utter the words that never get less painful to say, no matter how many years have passed, "so i went to their graves to pay respect." xiao's eyes widen and he steps back for a moment, processing what you just told him. your family... was dead? had you been alone this entire time? his gaze darts up to yours, meeting your warm eyes. they hold sorrow, far too much for someone as youthful as you, and glimmer slightly with unshed tears. and silently, now xiao is the one initiating the hug, letting you cry yourself dry on his shoulder.

after a few minutes pass, xiao speaks, "i am so sorry, y/n." you sniff softly, "don't be. it wasn't your fault, or anyone's fault. i'm sorry for suddenly crying like that." "you shouldn't be. you're allowed to cry, you don't have to force yourself to be positive all the time. i love you no matter how you're feeling, and i'll always try my best to help you get through it," xiao replies, rose pink colouring his cheeks as he struggles to verbally express how much he loves you. you smile, aware of how difficult it must have been for him to admit that, and lean against his chest, "i love you too, xiao."

from now on, xiao keeps a closer eye on you, reminding you not to bottle up your emotions, and you both continue to get along wonderfully - it's almost as if the two of you being together had been written in the stars long ago, two entirely different people designed to fit together perfectly.

SCP Scenarios: When they get scared by the reader (REQUESTED)

Main Masterlist | SCP Scenarios Masterlist | My Works Masterlist | Rules | Request | Socials | My Original Post

Requested by: @_Milla_7849_

SCP 073 (Cain)

I feel like Cain normally wouldn't be scared

Like if you made him watch a horror movie, he might flinch slightly but wouldn't be terrified of it

So when you try to scare him like a prank sort of way, he would flinch a little more than usual but would recover seconds later

Like that one time when he was alone walking down the hallway looking zoned out since he was thinking of something

And you just crept up to him like the sneaky little child you are and jumped onto his back

He did get a load yelp but realised it was you

Luckily for you, Cain didn't give you a lecture like before and actually laughed with you

However, if you were kidnapped or taken hostage or used for an experiment, it would obviously frighten him and he wouldn't forgive himself

So to prevent this, he would keep you within his line of sight at all times

Anyways, as I've mentioned before, Cain would probably also give you a tight hug after your little stunt and unbeknownst to him, the researchers recorded it for a laugh

Cain did give you a lecture but forgave you since you were so young and he couldn't resist those eyes

And the researchers did give you some sweets

SCP 076-2 (Abel)

Now, a warrior like Abel wouldn't be so easily frightened

Especially if it was a child, even more so if it's you since he knows you too well and has personally trained you from the age of 5

Basically, Abel would notice your movement and body language well since you're both stuck together

So you have devices a plan with your scientist friends to try and scare him

And yes, it's working

Because Abel got extremely distracted by Iris

Iris basically got yahooted into this mess and was told to wear a lingerie

Yes, you did scare him by shoving him into Iris

I wouldn't say he got a scare, but more like a surprise

Poor girl she just wanted to sleep

SCP 999 (Tickle Monster) 999 would most likely be scared the easiest out of everyone on this list

Aside from Glass

He's like a close second

Back to 999, you both were just chilling and wandering around the facility aimlessly

Because yall are boring (TBF you're both trapped in this giant mf blop of a building)

Anyways, let's just say that it was Bright and Clef who introduced you to the world of pranks and you guys thought it would be funny to scare our 999 here

Basically, yall decided to play dead and then pretend to turn into zombies with some makeup

Yes, it did work since you've managed to scare the living daylights out of 999

And he was about to have a cardiac arrest (if he even has a biological heart)

And yes, it almost ended in another breach

And 999 did give you a lecture on how to not scare people like that

He does sound like a grandpa though XD

SCP 682 (Hard to Destroy Reptile)

I would say that scaring 682 would be difficult, but I won't since he's already terrified of that rabbit

You, along with the other researchers, thought it'll be fun to pull a prank on 682 in form of a magic trick

It's a classic rabbit in the hat trick and yes, you did pull SCP 524 out of the hat

But, little did your tiny brain know, that rabbit basically eats everything, including itself

So you just watched 524 approaches the already terrified 682 and nibble on his feet

And yes, you and the other researchers laughed hard since he crawled up the wall to get away from the rabbit (I'm now officially adopting 524 as my other pet)

Sadly, 524 didn't stay for long since another doctor needed him for a test with Josie (yes, the cat)

682 basically shouted at you for doing such a thing on him, your dad

But you ignored him anyways since you knew he never meant what he said and he wouldn't be mad at you for long

SCP 049 (Plague Doctor)

Our bird boy here is pretty much neutral when it comes to being scared

Like, he can be quite unfazed by many things, so it's no surprise if you or any other SCPs tried to jump on him

So as part of an experiment, you and your friends had decided that you would try to play dead and see if 049 would be terrified

Well, 049 was somewhat concerned and when you carried on playing dead, he became scared since you weren't so conscious, or so he thought

Since you played dead extremely well for such a young child, he tried to see if he could fix you

And before he could do anything, you jumped up at him like Bonnie from FNAF

Yes, he looked like he jumped out of his skin and was so stunned that he just sat in the corner with his head down for an hour

You all had to check up on him and he said he was 'fine'

He wasn't

049 gave you a lecture about playing dead like that unless there's a dangerous SCP

SCP 035 (Possessive Mask)

Now, since 035 is a mask and is very much a master manipulator and an award-winning actor/actress, you would most likely be able to take on those traits from him

When you were younger, you were eager to learn from 035, who you see as not only your best friend but also an idol, so he taught you everything he could

As you got older, you've gotten better at manipulation and acting, so much so that even 035 couldn't tell if you were just being you from time to time

So one day, you've decided to prank your dad because you were hella bored (like you always are :((( cuz yall never be productive and just sit on your flat bum all day and watch YouTube, Netflix or play games then sleep)

You basically produced a fake body of yourself and wrapped it in a black bag and sent it to 035's cell

Then, you've got one of your researcher buddies to write a note of your passing and that you do love him very much

035 did receive the message and made sure that there was a dead body in the package

He was pretty much convinced that it was you since you were able to disguise the fake body like bone and flesh

Which of course scared him to death because he was about to attack everyone on site

Luckily you got there on time to stop him which freaked him out and yes, you've gotten a lecture about being such a prankster (You got grounded for life but that didn't stop a rebellious child like you)

At least everyone at the facility has gotten a laugh about it for the next 3 months

SCP 105 (Iris)

Pranking Iris wouldn't be hard, but that doesn't mean she's fazed, but not in a sense like 049 who wouldn't get a good scare from some SCPs which could do him harm

Iris is very much a self-aware and open-minded individual who has common sense (unlike you, who don't even move out of your bed or even use your non-existent brain cells)

She's very much like every other person you'll meet on the streets who wouldn't just believe the first thing that she hears since she is very much a rational person

So, if you want to devise a plan to scare her, it'll have to blend in with everything or be quiet out there with realistic effects

You'll have to use your head to think of a good prank to scare her, which you did since you've inherited her intelligence (that's a lie because you don't have any intelligence left in you)

As her child, you have decided to prank her by making her a fake copy of her camera but instead of her being able to control objects within the photo, she would end up destroying it

You gave it to her as a gift and she accepted it with suspicion since you don't normally get her anything and encouraged her to try it (you're such an ungrateful child)

Cain, Dr Glass, Dr Kondraki and a couple of others wanted to see as well, so they stayed and watch

Much to everyone's horror, the illusion camera did exactly how you designed it to and Iris was furious and saddened

Later on, you told her about the prank since you feel bad and she was extremely mad

So instead of grounding or lecturing you, she decided to have revenge

SCP 106 (Old Man)

Now, scaring this old man would be rather interesting because he doesn't seem too fazed by the other, more dangerous and unpredictable, SCPs

But, you can still scare him to a certain degree

I mean, he is an old man after all, so scaring him would be fun

As long as you don't give him a heart attack then it's fine I guess (cuz yall be evil for scaring such an old man)

So, you have decided to scare 106 by giving off little bits of harmless pranks at first so 106 would let his guard down for a moment

Like, giving him a box full of spiders (he's quite disgusted by them just like how he sees your face every time) and popping an air-filled bag (Don't lie, you've all done it and it's hella fun)

Later on, you would gradually move to play with the more dangerous things, such as getting him to look at a picture of 096's face (Probs ugly like yo-)

As time moved on, 106 seemed to be relaxed and expected you to bring him random things and soon realised that there was something off

You didn't show up to him for almost a week and he was ready to get his dad mode on

Luckily, some of the guards caught you with Abel and got 106 involved since they were afraid of causing a massive breach

106 panicked and picked you up, giving you a lecture on how you shouldn't be with other SCPs like Abel

You managed to tell him that you've befriended Abel and he was stunned and gave him the dad glare (you know the one where dads would give to warn others to not hurt their kids right?)

And because it's Abel, he would even make sure to be with you whenever you were with him which made it difficult for you to play with Abel because he might steal you away (Yes I'm looking at you right now kiddo, don't play with Abel)

So in conclusion, if the prank involves you being in a dangerous position, he wouldn't necessarily be scared but would start to panic about your safety

SCP 096 (Shy Guy)

I think 096 would be similar to 106 in a sense but less logical and unfazed

It's more like he would be pretty panicky every time you weren't there with him and his anxiety would act up (like you every time you're preparing for your exams where you didn't even revise)

Like if you were with Safe class SCPs, he would be more relaxed than you being with a Euclid class, but it kinda depends on who it is

If it was Cain then it would be fine, but if you were to be with 173, he would be quite wary at first and would tell you to try and avoid being with that peanut

So if you wanted to scare him, it wouldn't be too hard

All you had to do was to be with another Keter class SCPs and play with them

He would be extremely cautious and terrified if you were with one and knowing this, you've decided that playing with 682 instead of playing with Walter the rabbit (SCP 524 | He's my other pet), you've decided to go up and pet 682

When 096 got a hold on the commission on you being with that lizard, he ran out of his cell, causing a huge containment breach on the way like he's bulletproof, and went yeehaw with 682

All you did was sit there in confusion as they entertained you with some pole dancing

Basically, if you scare 096, he would go from anxious to paranoid to berserk then to we're all going down to hell and back again

Dr Jack bright

This mf right here is unpredictable af

Like in his own body, he would remain unfazed and would even go as far as pranking you back

I mean he still would act all fun and games but since he can possess multiple bodies, the outcome of him being scared would vary which would surprise him too since he wouldn't know

Unless he decided to possess someone he knows well, but he knows better than to do that

Dr Bright would most notably be scared, like everybody else on the list, if you were to put yourself in immediate danger, but since you were just as crazy as your dad, he would most likely go along with it until you deliver your prank

Like, you could be juggling knives while standing on top of 682's head while singing 'Painted Smile' by Madam Macabre (If you haven't heard it, you should, it's amazing)

Also, he would sometimes find you having your back faced towards peanut and still be fine after having your neck being snapped (Yall be like surprise mf)

Anyways, one time Jack had made a promise to you to meet you at a certain place and he was late

So you stormed into his office (like the entitled little nugget you are) and went 'tick-tock mf' to your dad

Well it worked and you showed him your trick with the Keter classes

By causing a containment breach and somehow you managed to bribe the Keter classes to perform with you

Let's just say that just because you've inherited his craziness doesn't mean that you could go as far as doing this prank

Bright was about to drop dead from a heart attack and he banned you from doing such things in the future

Dr Simon Glass

With Simon Glass, you could give him a fright relatively easily

Just because he's a psychologist and can read people rather well, he still would be terrified and paranoid about whatever you were planning on doing

Even if he told you not to

Like that time when you were told to not make toast because you can't cook and you almost burnt the whole facility and Glass stood there and said "I told you so" (he did ask for toast, as in toasted bread, not toasted humans)

Anyways, being the child of Simon Glass meant that you would learn a lot about the human mind and behaviour

He would teach you everything you were curious about and would sometimes ask Diogenes, Light, Kondraki, Cain and Iris to help teach you the things he wouldn't have much knowledge on

And sometimes Clef and Bright would appear and spoil you (not that Glass doesn't, he's just busy and trying to be the best dad he could by being anxious about you being alone in the facility with so many dangerous SCPs)

So this often meant that you, Bright and Clef would pull pranks on each other, usually on Kondraki and Iris

Except for this time, you've decided to pull a prank on your dad, Dr Glass

You've handed him over a realistic model of SCP 058 and he freaked out and called the MTFs

They've checked the model and realised that it was all fake and poor Simon had a heart attack from you

Simon was about to yeet that spider looking thing but it was able to move so he planned to carry you and yeet you both out

He did give you a lecture on doing that stunt and you did shed a few crocodile tears

And yes, Glass gave in and comforted you

He then went to grab Clef and Bright's ears and lectured them about helping you make the prank

Dr Alto Clef

I feel like Clef would be similar to Bright but without the whole process of changing bodies because of some curse

Like Clef wouldn't be all that scared since he's dealt with SCPsbefore and dies an extremely good job at it

So for Clef to be scarred for life, it'll either be an extremely dangerous SCP, he's drunk and/or high, he must care about you a lot and you must've been out of your mind to do something seriously stupid or you're evil enough to piss off a Simon Glass (Or all of the above if you're evil enough)

You would most likely want to take the easier and quicker route out of all the ones mentioned on the list which is to put yourself in an immediate danger

So you had asked Dr Bright for some help and so he did

Moments later, midway through preparing your prank, Clef came to Bright asking if he saw you and he did

However, they heard a familiar scream from down the hallway and they both rushed to your aid and soon realised that it's you

You were about to get eaten by 939 and they had to signal for the MTFs to help (Because you mfs didn't ask me for permission when you wanted to pet 939 D:<)

Clef gave you a big lecture and comforted you after he cooled down

Bright on the other hand wasn't so lucky as Clef wanted to murder him (But in his defence, you didn't tell Bright how dangerous the prank was cuz yall are as stubborn as a rock)

Dr Benjamin Kondraki

Kondraki would be pretty much average when it comes to being scared but with a little more logical since he works with the Foundation

He's that type of dad who would let you go to sleepovers every now and again as long as they weren't of the opposite gender (Unless yall are Bi, Gay, Lesbian, Pan, Alien, Basketball etc then he's screwed)

We support BLM and LGBTQ+ in this community and anyone who says otherwise must leave now

Heck, even our friends here, especially Kondraki, Glass, Bright, 999, Cain, Iris and Josie (SCP 529, my new pet) supports them

Anyways, back to the main plot

Depending on what age you're at and whether you were planning to prank him with the Foundation staff or SCPs will lead to a different outcome

Like if you told him you were dating someone he would've died right there and then

No dating until you're 50

Anyhow, you've decided that it'll be funny to scare your dad with Clef and Bright by getting his Bootyflies to shapeshift into various Keter class SCPs and acting like it

And yes, you somehow managed to persuade the Bootiflies to do just that

And no, Kondraki didn't know about this even though he found it odd that his bootiflies didn't obey him that day

You got Kondraki to sit down in a room with Clef while you and Bright was setting up everything

The bootyflies shifted into the Scarlet King and boy sis Kondraki called the MTFs and was boutta shoot him

Everyone in the room had to get him to stop and that it was just a prank (And by everyone I mean just you, Bright and Clef)

Kondraki did manage to stop and was boutta drag you out for a big girl/boy lecture

Well, he did but not before kicked Bright and Clef in their privates first

Needless to say, nobody wanted to prank Kondraki again (Shush, no you don't, yes I'm looking at you from behind the screen and I know that you'll do it again)
