Garrus is proof of ACAB because he fucking LEFT because he couldn't handle the red tape and corruption any more.

[bugcatcherkit]

very curious about your thoughts on a tome teru ritsu shou friendship. you are one million percent correct but i am also extremely curious what you think her individual dynamics would be with everyone in the group, how she starts hanging out with them, and the general vibes of their private minecraft server

oh my god thank you hfhhehvhe i lovee having space to ramble about my interpretations !!!!!! I am trying so hard to make this short and coherent (I didn't sleep at all last night) so bear with me ok. This got long sooo ...

Tome and Teru bond first by virtue of being work besties turned regular friends. Well, work besties as in Teru hangs out there and helps out a lot but would never officially take the job. Anyway they get along great because they can match each other's weird and eccentric vibe while also having an underlying bit of Understanding between them due to the whole "tried to rationalize their isolation with specific escapist fantasies that indulged it instead of addressed it" thing. I think they help each other bridge whatever gap remains from their difficulties in connecting the supernatural/extraterrestrial/super-powered world and experiences with the regular/normal/ordinary world. like theyre a good balance for each other. Theyre both So Much that it kind of cancels out. I just like to think they help ground each other. This is very important for their enrichment.

Some of their enrichment activities include: Tome trying to get Teru to fucking Relax For Once by introducing him to video games like pokemon but it kind of backfires when he gets Way Too Into It (this is where minecraft comes in also). Making a super expansive OC world and continually referencing it to each other much to everyone else's confusion. Trying to cure their intense boredom by hanging out together but never really knowing what to do, so they're just bored together. Their text messages are mostly funny images they found, not actual conversations. Their solidarity with each other is almost unmatched. They have a warriors bond.

Anyway. ANYWAY. I think Tome is just kind of absorbed into the Teru-Ritsu-Shou friend group mostly because of Teru, and partly because sometimes, very occasionally, Shou will be at S&S because of Ritsu, who is usually there only as a favour. Ritsu and Teru do the exorcism stuff and Tome and Shou have to sort the filing cabinets for the 5 millionth time because Reigen is running out of things that Tome can do. Shou does not mind these tasks. I think Teru and Shou both like having little menial tasks to do whereas Tome doesn’t. For Ritsu is depends on the task and who it’s for a think. But ANYWAY. Anyway they just grow closer from there probably unless I think of something better.

I like to think of the Tome and Shou dynamic for similar reasons as the Teru-Tome dynamic (character comparison reasons). Shou craved normalcy and decided to chase it post-canon. Tome wanted the complete opposite. So I don't think they would exactly see eye-to-eye immediately (why would she want to give up that normalcy vs why would he want mundane normalcy). I think Shou might even find her View of Things a little bit annoying, mostly because I think he'd be high-strung post canon and she is just not helping that, as opposed to him actually disliking anything about her. But because they are both quite considerate of other people, they work through these things and become bros. He actually probably really appreciates her Severe Genuineness and (mostly) unwavering will regarding her passions/beliefs. She probably likes his appreciation for simple normalcy and relaxation because it hammers in again that doing stuff like that isn't a waste. They love doing so much Nothing together because they both like to take it easy. I think they would enjoy parallel playing.

When they hang out they have to stop EVERYTHING they're doing to watch an ant carry something 4x its size across the sidewalk because it is so exciting to them. Shou is in on the OC world by the way. Tome and Teru and Shou develop it like they're in the writers room of a high-budget TV show. He updates her on every little thing his hamsters do.

For some reason I found the Ritsu and Tome dynamic like the most difficult to think about out of all of them. They're probably the least close? Ritsu treats Tome as Mob's friend in the same way that Mob treats Shou as Ritsu's friend -- with immense care and consideration, but not a lot of close contact outside of a group. He tries to be sooo polite with her but she Does Not match his energy. So after a certain point Ritsu just kind of gives it up. Then they start annoying the shit out of each other. I do think that Ritsu looks up to Tome based on what he knew about her in middle school and how he knows her post-canon. Because she never conformed to people’s expectations in the way that he did, and she is committed to a Fun and Meaningful Existence in similar ways that he wants to be. My ideal dynamic is a Ritsu who gets Weirder and a bit more childish around her, because he deserves it I think. I know I said they wouldn't be close but this is how they can bond more.

I HAVENT EVEN GOTTEN TO THEIR MINECRAFT SERVER YET. Tome and Teru are the powerhouses of the server because they are so cracked at the game. the only difference is Teru takes it so damn seriously and Tome actually likes fucking around. She's putting herobrine portals around and convincing Ritsu he's on the server. Teru is doing it all he's farming he's mining he's building elaborate builds he's setting up economies because probably has the most consistent resource supply. Where's that post where it describes him and Ritsu as "they keep making more elaborate redstone powered industrial farms" I swear I saw something like that. That is them.

I wouldn't say Shou sucks at survival mode but he probably isn't terribly good at it either. He seems like a "load in a flat world and build stupid things and spawn in the max number of mobs allowed in any given range." He's always asking people for stuff because he keeps dying and losing his. Or he gets lost frequently. He's followed by at least 7 tamed wolves at a time and every time he loses one he makes everybody stop whatever they're doing to come to the funeral he puts.

The only thing stopping Ritsu from basically speedrunning the game is the fact that he is scared of the cave noises/the monsters/the nether. Also him and Mob have to share an account so sometimes he'll load in with nothing because Mob got them killed last time he was on. Tome and Teru both suck at bringing beds with them when they go out on in-game days long adventures and everyone else is soo mad at them. Is this too elaborate. I could probably go on I just haven't played minecraft in a while.

Hellsing oc lmao ((more abt her under cut))

Part 1 ⚬ ⚬ ⚬ Part 1½ ᶻ 𝘇 𐰁

((side note; Before I start, I dunno anything about skinbenders if it’s an actual thing, I just got the name from a comic book character and then just freestyling the rest, and my writing is horrible.))

//ability//

Calico can shapeshift into much more than just animals or human. she can shapeshift her whole, or part of her body into whatever she wants, objects, weapons, animal-like, anything she wants. for an average skinbender, it’s easy to spot them through their disguises, they always look deranged, or something’s just off and inhuman about them. but not Calico, She’s always flawless with her shapeshifting ability and that fact does give her a bit of an ego. Calico has to wear one’s skin in order to shift into what she wants, so does that also mean she consumes scraps in order to shapeshift into an object? Maybe…

\\Likes \ hobbies\\

⟡ Using her shifting ability, Calico loves to terrify the soldiers around Hellsing with her body horror, and Seras is definitely her favorite to scare, she would stand in dark corners and just stare. But unfortunately ((or fortunately ?)) the only people that wouldn’t fall for her antics is Alucard and Integra, makes sense because Integra had to deal with Alucard within the second half of her childhood so she should be used to it at this point. and I’m sure Alucard vampire senses would know Calico is there before she even get to do anything.

⟡ shifting into a cat and pretty much doing whatever the fuck she wants.

⟡ joining Hellsing was just like a retirement for Calico, doing random activities around the mansion while also becoming a vampire Hunter to satisfy her animalistic nature to kill. crocheting, bone collecting, gardening, just to name a few of her random activities, but her favorite out of all is baking, and sharing her baked goods to hellsing while they’re completely oblivious rather or not if she ever put anything in the food they’re eating, and she haven’t... yet.

⟡ Women. ((Not in that way))

((ok maybe a little in that way..))

//Dislikes//

⟡ Bald people.

((k here some concept))

\\The character\\

⟡ relaxed, serene, insensitive, sadomasochistic, two-faced, extremely kind when she feels like it, can be manipulative at times, and a challenge to provoke.

⟡ Calico speaks with a lot of hand gestures, and even touch the person she’s talking to, she does not acknowledge personal space, or possibly doesn’t even care. Her voice is usually soft, calm and almost robotic in someway, with a Chinese Mandarin accent, but her voice does change when she’s in her original form, it’s like a raspy, loud whisper. Calico has no filter, she would announce how ugly a baby is, in public, in front of the parents.. or casually ask a person why are they ugly, or bald. in other words she will say shit that probably shouldn’t be said out loud, or say what everybody in the room is thinking out loud in an awkward situation as another example and all with a small smile remaining on her face.

⟡ and there’s other times she’ll just stand there like a statue if anyone isn’t Interacting with her or just doesn’t have anything else to do.

//more random stuff abt this character//

⟡ Skinbenders aren’t exactly born with a pacific sex or gender, all their genitals pretty much the same and can be used the same way as both human male and female genitals, in other words, you could breed or be bred by them. ((WTF DID I JUST TYPE IN BRO 😭)) what I’m trying to get at is Calico is technically a trans woman if you think about it.

⟡ Calico forgets to blink sometimes, just putting that there.

⟡ ((I have this weird obsession with what a character bedroom would look like, so best believe I’m gonna explain what her bedroom looks like,)) most of her room is completely normal, a dresser she never felt the need to use, a vanity and shelves occupied with her small animal skull collection but what sticks out the most is instead of having a bed she has a nest in the size of an average king size bed made from majority of blankets and pillows she have stolen around the mansion all occupying in the corner of her room, she could be very protective of her nest, only allowing the people she trust the most to even be near, aka Seras, Calico has tried inviting her master Integra into her nest, but was always rejected.. so that’s why Calico has taken upon herself to settle for claiming her master's bed instead.

⟡ Most of her clothing is made of her flesh.

⟡ Calico is not completely emotionless she can make other facial expressions, a small smile is just her default / resting face. 

⟡ If Calico actually labeled her identity, she would be an aromantic, pansexual, trans woman. but she doesn’t feel the need to label it, so you would never catch her calling herself these things.

⟡ Calico doesn’t really see people as, well.. people. So this is how she view the main four !!

Integra ((But Calico personally calls her ‘my master’))- Calico actually respects her authority and probably the only persons boundaries she would take into consideration. Also silly British hehehehe.

Alucard - Calico sees him as some vampiric Manwhore. But they’re civil with each other, they like to have conversations and even sometimes play chess together.

Seras ((but Calico insist on calling her by her last name, Victoria.)) - ah she absolutely adore her, Calico would have her attend with her hobbies if available. Calico treats Seras as like she’s a new puppy for her. So in case you haven’t noticed she’s obviously the favorite.

Walter - twink.

((that’s all for now!! this may have some edits since I’m never satisfied with any writing I do, and I will be making a part two lololololo.))

((Did I choose this silly cat video in particular because it’s a Calico? Yes, yes I did exactly that.))

[gogolstoelicker]

Can you write about MC/yuu that like bruno (if you has watch encanto) basically a sweet man that can see the future, disowned/run away from his family to protect his nephew and then got an entire song dedicated to him and the song basically everyone talk smack about him

Oh dear sevens i kin him

Dorm leaders with a Bruno!MC

warning(s): -

notes: really sorry this was late KSNSKNS

•and sorry if i got his character wrong, i havent watched encanto

A reclusive and anxious person, you try to manage you anxiety with superstitious rituals. You're also family-oriented, willing to sacrifice your place in the family to keep them safe.

Having the ability to see the future, you inadvertently hurt or angered the people around you whenever you had a prophecy, causing you to retreat from society and become paranoid and fearful of your own gift.

Riddle:

he tried to help you socialize more

he really tried bro

he even have this weekly "how to socialize" lesson sessions with you

you shivering in your timbers whenever ur lessons with him starts

but riddle notices you're really good at approaching what you fear when the situation calls for it🤔

so he kind of stopped the lesson bc u look kind of scared lol

but he did try to help u whenever you're stuttering in a conversation with someone

he doesn't get why u like rats but he just... let it go honestly

oh well everyone have their own likes and dislikes amirite🤔

he told u not to tell some prophecy so that u won't accidentally hurt or anger people anymore

and so people won't be too dependent of ur ability honestly😡

wanting to make their mother proud and is burdened by their mother's expectations🤝

Leona:

to be honest, he doesn't even remember u at first since u literally avoid people😭

so either he catches u doing one of ur rituals or u gave him a prophecy

if its the first scenario, he will surely go

🤨⁉️

and go back to nap or smth bc he doesn't care much but at least it leaves a lasting impression on him ig

if its the second one, then hooboy

it better be him being a king or smth😡😡

it was not btw

cue him biting his pillow in anger at night

one of the people u accidentally angered with ur prophecy oh oops

oh well he got over it, its ok! he accepted his fate alr!

overall, he doesn't mind ur presence

you don't try to butter him up neither do u talk smack about him

ur also quiet so he's pretty relaxed

Azul:

u remind him of idia

fear not, if he can have idia as a friend, he can surely pull u as his friend too‼️

and surely enough, he actually did got to befriend u

but friends or not, ur ability is giving him ideas🤔

maybe he can open a fortune telling shop? haha hes joking hes joking

or was he😳

but he did try to make sure u dont hurt or angered people with ur prophecy

and if someone is trying to like, 💪have a beat down with u bc of said prophecy, they will immediately stop

bc azul is right behind u, his glasses gave off a shine under the sun as he hold up a contract with a smile on his face

sometimes, he tweels would be right behind him too with the same smiles

"do not." he mouthed

welp you're safe now🤗didnt even know azul was behind u until u turn around

he lied saying hes just passing by btw

Kalim:

quite literally the opposite of each other

but when u got comfortable and finally got more goofy with him, kalim was ecstatic

like he might as well shake in excitement

he would even hold up parties for u!

but if you're not too comfortable with too many people, thats ok! kalim can arrange for there to only be people you're familiar with!

just a private party between the two of you would be fine for him too!

its ok hes flexible! he can go with anything you'd like!

I've been using many exclamation marks for kalim idk how to feel about this!!!

he really likes your ability to see into the future!

he would ask u d a i l y what prophecy u got each day

Vil:

u like acting so since vil is an actor, u quite admire him

when vil finds out about it, hes not all that surprised

he's used to being admired, that is what he deserves afterall

what he didn't expect is for u to be good at acting too

is this... FATE?! /JOKE

he did try to approach u since he saw ur talent but

but its like u suddenly shrunk and became 🐁

it took a while too but once u got comfortable with him, u got vil cleaning up ur appearance everytime

he almost faint when he saw u with a rat on ur shoulder

sometimes, he would ask u to practice his script with him

he doesn't think much abt ur gift honestly KSNAKSJKS

he'd rather work hard to a certain future rather than cling onto ur gift's hope

plus, if its bad, it might crush self-esteem too so no thanks���he's good

Idia:

he kins u, u kin him

u two probably

got along the best with onr another

like "damn i don't wanna go out" "me too bro"

*games the whole day idk*

idia is very much comfortable to rant to u

especially since u encouraged him to talk about anything and not bottle up his feelings

be it his favorite show is having a season two or smth, about a new game he brought or maybe even some problems he have with himself deep down

he would be more than happy to do the same with u!

whatever u wanna talk about, ur best friend is right here

he might even let consider making u an ipad that would go to class for u just like the one he have

legit if u asked, hes already on it

on the other hand, he have mixed feelings abt ur ability

sure its cool but he doesn't think he'll be ready if he got a bad prophecy🤔

Malleus:

probably used a persona to approach him the first time

like hernando who is scared of nothing

so the second time yall meet and you're unprepared, he was like

oh:( are u scared of me now?

ofc its not actually like that but he is pouting on the inside tho

when u idk tell him youre just shy and explained everything he just goes :0

he's glad he didn't scare you since he really wanted to befriend u!

the beginning is kind of rough since malleus could be quite awkward and you're quite shy

so when u actually became more comfortable around him and even became more enthusiastic and cheerful, malleus may or may not be ecstatic too🤔

actually, hes too happy flowers might bloom in nrc

he quite interested in your ability to be able to see into the future

sometimes, he might even ask what prophecy u received

[4e7her]

*deepest inhale I've ever taken in my life*

Ok. I'm going to request a VERY fluffy jamil #20 with yuujirou so we can both recover from....so we can both recover

Love you bro, thank you for putting up with me and my bullshit

🛹

LMAO FAIR. I'M GONNA BE A MASTER OF WRITING JAMIL SOON THIS IS THE THIRD ONE FOR THE REQUEST AND THERE'S A TWSTOBER ONE FOR HIM COMING UP SOON TOO. LOVE U TOO BRO HAVE FUN I LOVE THE BULLSHIT

-

character: jamil viper, twst

contains: oc used as main character - not an x reader, fluff, male main character

view the oc here. for basics, he's more or less a black panther beastman (referred to as hybrid, as they are different things, but similar) named yuujirou. you can read the fanfic i'm writing for him here (quotev) or here (ao3).

for a random event - see here for request rules and here for the masterlist

"You know..." Jamil started, absolutely content in the way that he was tangled with Yuujirou, cuddling on Ramshackle's couch while Grim was stuck in detention with Ace and Deuce. "Even if you left me, I'd still be yours."

The panther is obviously confused by the statement, straightening a little and staring at the serpent with a frown.

"I wouldn't leave you."

The absolute confidence in his voice all but made Jamil choke on air, and he sits up as a blush shoots across his face.

"I- I didn't mean that you would." He coughs, bringing a blanket up to hide his face, knowing that the panther would have no trouble hearing him despite the muffling of the cloth. "It's just... a hypothetical. That I would love you no matter what happened."

"Mmph." Yuujirou scoffs, relaxing with the confirmation that his partner didn't think he would, his irritation with the idea obvious by the way it swayed and moved the blankets along with it. "Well, it's not a good one. Just say that, instead. I would never leave you willingly."

The other shifts where he sits, holding the blankets closer as the heat spread to his ears and down his neck. Clearly, he hadn't quite thought that comment through.

The jaguar settles back down into place, wrapping his arms around Jamil's form with a huff, possessive in the way that he brings him impossibly closer and suddenly just... gently chomping down on his partner's covered shoulder.

When he gets no protests, the serpent already knowing of Yuujirou's more animalistic tendencies after the whole process of being courted by him, the hybrid starts rubbing his face against Jamil with a sound halfway between a purr and a growl emanating.

Clearly, he had been quite affected by the idea of having to leave his partner, going as far to scent mark him even though Jamil couldn't possibly smell like anyone after they'd been cuddling for the past couple hours. Though... the serpent couldn't say he disliked it.

It was welcoming to be claimed so plainly, even if Yuujirou was growling a bit while he did it, and even if Yuujirou was nudging him to and fro all the while.

Eventually, when Jamil emerges from his blanket cocoon, the panther aggressively rubs against his face as well - it's telling, the way that he doesn't even blink or complain about his hair being messed up. This was... a common occurrence by now.

...Waiting for Grim never felt so long before.

[melody-of-lost-souls]

Helloooo,

So uhh, I just wanna rant a little bit... Pls answer if you have anything to add to whatever I'm gonna submit!! Thanks--

So when I was watching OG Naruto, the first thing I noticed was the looking down upon each other moment between Naruto and Sasuke. And BOY 😃 was I laughing while having second hand embarrassment when they kissed.. I didn't think much of it but it was hilarious. By the time I reached Chunin Exam I began to feel a sudden unusual dynamic between N and S. The affection they have for each other gave me a VERY "oh ok um.." Vibe. As always.. I ignored it.. Nah cuz I couldn't take them seriously 😂. I started to see the sudden change in S at the hospital when he suddenly wanted to fight N. From there, probably a little earlier I felt their dynamic kind of intensify a bit. VotE1, we don't talk about it. It was so emotional I'm pretty sure I cried. At the beginning of Shippuden.. The appearance of Sasuke was pretty intense (Sasuke's outfit was a big nono).. I then started to notice the change in Naruto (the character)... After then I started to get emotional, cuz my favorite characters started to fall.. You got Asuma's death, then Jiraiya's death.. No because when I saw Itachi's, I NEEDED a mental break.. So then I decided to surf the internet a little.. BIGGEST MISTAKE. I wanted to know more about characters and try to put myself in their shoes to see what actions I would take if it was me... And then I started peeking into ships.. That's where the trauma began. So I saw some analysis of ships to see which one makes the most sense.. The first one I saw was unironically SN/NS. Then the person who wrote the analysis pointed out things that I ignored. When I kept reading, I just continued getting surprised at the signs that I've noticed but decided to ignore. And I was like "Oh, ok... Interesting.." From there I basically had my suspicions cleared about their relationship (That's also when I found your blog, just a bit later)... The next one I saw was just.. 🤐🤐. SS was next.. Bro I'm not gonna lie.. When Sakura was introduced I already started disliking her. Right then and there.. No because as the series went on she was utterly useless.. Always whining and forcing her feelings on Sasuke who clearly did not like her back. Especially during the fake confession I just grinned my teeth so hard. I have a friend who watches Naruto, apparently she hates Sakura to the core as well. She said that she couldn't watch the fake confession episode and honestly, I get it 💀. She finished the series but still can't bring herself to watch the fake confession scene. Anyway back to SS... What I first saw were invalid points they made. Whatever crap they spewed out just made no sense because there was no evidence of whatever they were implying. Then they posted a page of Sasuke saving Sakura from hitting the ground after Gaara released her from his Chikaku grasp. Something that's normal for a teammate to do for the other teammate. But somehow it was romantic? So what I saw it as was that if I almost fell and my friend catches me, it means that he loves me? Because you know friends or teammates don't save each other on the regular basis apparently. As I kept reading I started getting frustrated. I didn't bother going to NH cuz.. HEH 💀💀💀. UM ANYWAY. It was a long process because I'm a bit slow. So, whenever I saw Sasuke and Sakura in the same scene, I felt frustration. My heartbeat started increasing because OMG. I JUST COULD NOT STOP CRINGING AT ALL THE TIMES SHE CRIED AND DESPERATELY WANTED SASUKE TO BE WITH HER. I was just like "Bro are you for serious? You got problems around you and you care about Sasuke?" I just subconsciously got mad whenever they were close. I took another break. And this time started looking at fan arts. It was really nice and relaxed me, until SS fan art appeared. I just got off Google and went to do something else. Then I go back later and then NH is what I see next, and I'm just like 😐😐. Then SNS fan art appears and I'm just like 😏😮😍😆. Back to the series. When Sasuke and Naruto are on the same scene I feel happy AND relaxed as they express how they felt about each other. My admiration for their bond was beyond

what I imagined. No because when Naruto said that he and Sasu would die together, and did I mention that it suspiciously sounded like a wedding vow? Anyway, whenever they'd share their feelings, I'd be watching and trying so hard not to scream. I just watched in excitement and was fan girling through the whole thing. And then I reached the War Arc. Then Neji died.. I was just like "😩😩 WHYYYY????" And Hinata started to act all bold, and I actually appreciated her in that moment when she brought N back to his senses. But then what came next just annoyed me. And I stopped watching. What kind of human would think about someone's hand when their cousin just died infront of them? ik it's a war, you're gonna need to suck it up but come on.... There was another reason as to why I didn't want to continue because, I accidentally came across a few spoilers.. Because I knew that after the war S and N would fight and then you got the monstrosity called Burrito that was upcoming.. After all of that.. I found myself just stalking SN/NS fan arts and stuff.. OH AND when Sakura started doing stuff when Sasuke showed up, it made me want to appear in the show and completely OBLITERATE HER SELFISH ASS. AND THEN SHE HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY THAT SHE CAUGHT UP TO SASUKE AND NARUTO BECAUSE SHE CAN CREATE CRACKS ON THE GROUND??? DON'T GET ME STARTED WITH WHEN SHE GOT A STAB FROM MADARA, THINKING THAT SHE COULD BRING HIM DOWN BY PUNCHING HIM? AND STARTED WHINING LIKE A PUPPY IN HEAT BECAUSE SASUKE KUN DIDN'T GIVE 2 JACKS ABOUT HER???! AND HER ANNOYING, DELUSIONAL STANS SAY THAT SHE SURPASSED TSUNADE???? NEVER WILL SHE EVER, IDC WHAT UNIVERSE, BUT NEVER WILL SAKURA EVER SURPASS TSUNADE. THEY CAN YAP ALL THEY WANT BUT IT'S FACTS. DON'T COMPARE MISSY WHO WETS HER PANTIES AT THE SIGHT OF HER SASUKE KUN TO SOMEONE WHO, NOT ONLY LOST THOSE IMPORTANT TO HER, BUT THANKS TO THE LITTLE MOTIVATION SHE RECEIVED FROM NARUTO DESPERATELY TRYING TO FIGHT KABUTO, SHE GAINED THE STRENGTH TO GET OVER HER TRAUMA (even though it was all sudden, I really loved how she got over it). AND EVEN BEFORE AND AFTER TSUNADE MET DAN, SHE STILL HAD HER OWN MOTIVES TO BE A GREAT PERSON. TSUNADE ACTUALLY THINKS ABOUT PEOPLE AROUND HER OTHER THAN BOYS. HOW CAN THEY COMPARE SAKURA TO SOMEONE SO AMAZING??!!

And then you got SS stans saying that their relationship is "unique". I never heard an excuse as lame as that. Sasuke disliking being touched by Sakura, constantly avoiding her, and the indifferent attitude towards her whenever she's injured is considered unique? Idk about you but, It's a big red flag from my side if my husband doesn't seem concerned about me whenever I'm hurt. If anything, their relationship is whatever they want to call it.. But IT IS NOT UNIQUE, NOR CuTe, NOR LOVING. And a 'friend' of mine really said that Sakura deserved Sasuke 💀💀. Bro there are so many red flags that I just.. 😩😩😩. My parents marriage is looking a bit like SS.. First of all.. They don't like touching each other anymore.. In this, Sakura is the only one who wants to touch and be touched by Sasuke, but Sasuke's it's not the same. He doesn't want to be touched nor does he want to touch Sakura.. They both make little to no effort in the relationship, in SS case Sakura is the one making effort. Sasuke is just bleh. My dad works a lot but still wants to be home and, to be with us. Not just because of me but because he actually still wants to be home. In this case for SS.. How do I put this,, It's pretty self explanatory anyway... Uh, Sasuke does NOT come home but when he does it's usually because of Salad (the time they had dinner where Sasuke was just 😥).. Or to when he needs to reduce the boost if you know what I mean. AND HUNNY THAT ISN'T ROMANTIC, IT'S SAD 😃. I'm not saying he's using her, because I don't think he is but... Ahem... That's one of the very few times Sasuke touches Sakura.. And that's one of the very, very, VERY, few moments of SS 🤐. "But what do you meann!! They had sex, they love each other! It's real deal love!!" Where have you been? 😀 Since when does real deal love works like that in the real world? Because people have sex don't mean they love each other. It's called a one night stand for a reason. One night stands don't need no love. Whatever crumb the author throws at their desperate fandom, they take it and be like "SEE! IT'S REAL DEAL LOVE!!" 🤦. My little brother's attitude when my mom gives him an extra donut. They gotta learn the difference between actual love and guilt tripped love. Their very different things. Their pink mega mind, self absorbed, princess with down syndrome is not the one for Sasuke. And please, they need to stop editing panels to fit their sad ship. It's getting embarrassing.

Well you said everything jaja

What I can add, is that at the time I watched Naruto when i was 12, more than a decade ago...I always find it at least "weird" that you go to such extreme lengths and pain just for a "friend". It's not a question of culture or something, because some antis would say ñiñiñi is different in lalaland. I guess bonds and friendships can be handled the same in any part of the world, same with relationships with parents, siblings and lovers. It's not that in some countries idk you would fuck a friend but your relationship with a couple would be distant in comparison to a friend. So, there is no "friendly" or straight explanation for Naruto going that far for Sasuke. I have seen this dynamic on full metal alchemist, but they were brothers and their relationship was absolutely different than SNS beginning with no repressed feelings at all. And on shippuden those feelings get more intense and deep.

And what you said about Sakura and SS I agree.

Specially about the touching thing, some of the things that separate a friendship from a love relationship is touching. at least they are on a superior level of spirituality than they do not even need that, which is not SS case.

Sasuke doesnt like being touched at all, but he always started physical contact with Naruto and he is not disgusted to be physically close with naruto. on the other hand with sakura... Their relationship is not unique at all, in the positive way of the word... They lack of everything.

And that shit saying Sakura deserved Sasuke or viceversa is a total redflag because shows that you are treating a person like some prize. You dserve a prize if you did enough to win. What you do not deserve is a person. That shows how selfish they are as their cherry bloom princess, because technically LOVE is not about giving my feelings thinking if the other person will give me back what i deserve. Many times in the anime is showed that Sakura does and behaves in certain way in order to catch sasuke attention and get "his love." From there you see a scheme from her, because all of her actions are driven for a purpose of being close to sasuke which would lead to idk being his girlfriend. But is all about her and this again shows how she never loved him, as SS claims that she suffered that much poor girl.

It was always about her and her ego. She is such a narcissistic person and loving someone...is all about the contrary.

And this also is another win for SNS because Naruto love for Sasuke, and viceversa, never hid an scheme behind. Not a I will save you----> he will like me/he will do things for me. they always did and bring comfort to each other, because of real feelings and uninterested love.

SS and NH can never work having Naruto or Sasuke figure in between, you need to erase one of them to make those ships work and be "natural" and loving.

What i will always say for how SS and NH work in BORUTO is...Divorced-in-maybe-good-terms couple that just is still together for the sake of the children.

And SS and NH making mental gymnastics to justify why they are canon, is useless. THey are just canon to let the kids in boruto, have biological parents. thats it.

Emp-ire “Vacation.”

Ok everyone, so Just a bit of an announcement before we get to this story. As you know I have been writing this series for over a year now, which includes the book. That means I haven’t worked on anything else in years. I love these stories, and the characters, so I want to keep writing, But, to avoid burnout, I am going to need to take a detour from the the regular themes and write something new. I won’t title them HASO because that is the theme I am stepping away from for a bit. But its all the same characters and what not, just something new so I don’t end up with the desire to quit.

The book’s name is Empyrean Iris so, the nickname I am giving the universe is Emp-ire because it is shorter. If you can think up a better name, I am cool to hear it out, but this is how you will know the difference :).

I hope you will accept the new shenanigans and be willing to ride out this little detour with me. Its for the health of my writing, but I still wanted to give you guys something, while allowing myself to relax and write something else for a little.

Sharp light filtered in through tinted glass. Despite the brightness and pureness of the light, somehow the room still seemed dark. Perhaps it was the sharpness of the light and the blackness of the shadows left in its wake. The room itself seemed cold and barren. The floors were grey, the walls were grey, and the furniture was mostly stainless steel.

There was a chair toppled over on the floor in the center, surrounded by shards of shattered glass which caught the sharp light from outside and warped it to reflect across the room in crystalline patterns.

The walls of the room were barren, mostly devoid of pictures, except for one hanging crooked over the couch- a frozen image of a happy family smiling down from the wall. Somehow, in a room like this their smiles seemed rather hollow. Just across from that a TV was playing static and a defused bluish light filtered onto the floor where it mixed with the white light filtering in from the tinted window, and the bright lunar landscape outside.

The place was silent, mostly silent except for the occasional sloshing of liquid.

He lay on the dull grey floor next to the overturned coffee table. He was a wreck, wearing a stained white T-shirt and boxer shorts. His face was covered in a weak layer of scruff and in one hand he held a bottle. He lay there for another long moment staring with a dead expression up at the ceiling before slowly raising the bottle to his lips and taking another swig. He grimaced, and much of the alcohol spilled out onto his chin and neck, but he didn’t seem to care, and rested his head back against the floor with a dull thud.

He contemplated getting up.

Cleaning himself up maybe.

But that would clearly be too much work with his prosthetic stowed under the bed in the bedroom.

He was a cripple.

He couldn’t get up.

He took another sip from the bottle, hating the taste as much as the fuzziness that clouded his head.

A soft whimper from the other side of the coffee table, and looking up he saw a snout and a pair of ears poke out from behind it.

“Lay down.” He ordered drunkenly

And the nose and snout disappeared again to go along with a dull thud.

He didn’t have the energy to deal with her today, but she was always so insistent. He just wanted to be left along more than anything in the world.  

Adam stared at the ceiling closing his eyes as another wave of incomprehensible self loathing washed over him, he was an idiot, he was pathetic, he was stupid, and he was barely even human. He had no life, no personality, and the one thing that made him interesting was the one thing he couldn’t do at the moment.

He hadn’t told the UNSC of course, he didn’t want to lose his job.

So he had disguised his visit to the moon as extended leave, leave that was VERY extended considering all his unused vacation hours stacked up. If he wanted, he could take the next year off.

The thought scared, him and his fear scared him even more. Why was he so afraid of spending time by himself.

It’s because you don’t have a personality.

Or the fact that you are super boring and you know you would be bored the entire time.

Because you are worried about what you are going to learn about yourself.

Because…. Because you don’t get to see her.

He squeezed his eyes tight shut and groaned.

Stop thinking! Don’t think about that!

And then he heard the sound of keys rattling in the lock. He sat up very quickly suddenly aware that he was legless and unarmed. But who the hell had a key! Only his mother, but she was back on earth, its not like he could think of anyone else to give it to. The key rattled in the lock for a few more seconds.

Adam turned looking around for any sort of weapon and found only the mostly empty bottle at his side.

He looked at it, shrugged, and then downed the last of its content before grabbing it by the neck and brandishing it like a weapon.

The lock clicked and the door was pushed inward. Boots thudded over the grey laminate floor, and a shape came around the corner duffle bag in one hand, a set of keys swinging in the other.

He raised the bottle, ready to throw it at the intruder and then paused.

“Ramirez!”

Ramirez stopped to look at him a dark eyebrow raising over an amber eye. He looked Adam up and down very slowly before, “You look like shit.”

Self consciously Adam managed to lever himself up onto the couch, so he could be a little more dignified, but as he was right now, there wasn’t much hope of that.

Ramirez lifted his nose to the room and sniffed grimacing.

“Dude, its smells like a bar in here, and not the reputable kind. It smells like the kind of bar where the blond chick just threw up in the corner, and drunk uncle dan pissed himself because he passed out.”

“Ok, Ok I get it.”

Ramirez turned to look at him, “No I don’t think you do, bro what the hell.” he bent over and picked up one of the bottles, “Since when did you drink?” He flipped the bottle over, “Since when did you drink this shit. If you are going to get drunk at least make it something good.”

Adam looked away, “Highest alcohol content I could find.”

“Yeah…. That stops now.”

He set down his duffle and crossed his arms over his chest, “Go get yourself cleaned up.”

Adam opened his mouth to protest.

Ramirez held up a hand, “No, no your mother said she would only give me the keys if I got your ass out of the house, and that is what i intend to do.”

“You met my mother!”

“Yes, lovely lady, though the next time she sees you shes gonna beat your ass. Now get up and go wash the stench off, I can smell you from here. Also,...” He looked down, reaching into his bag and tossing a small white bottle over to Adam, who, somehow, managed to catch it.

The two of them stared in surprise for a second before Adam flipped the bottle over to read the label.

“Ethen-null?” He read aloud, “What is this.”

“Take two, they should neutralize the ethanol in your bloodstream. I used to carry a bottle around in my wilder days. ITs great when you want to get super drunk late at night, but you don’t want to be a shitty human being while driving home drunk.”

“I don't w-”

“Option one is you take them voluntarily, option two is that I make you take them, and I guarantee that you aren’t going to like option two.”

“I can’t walk.”

“Boo hoo, get up and hop your crippled ass to the shower, I know you can.”

HE blinked a bit surprised at the venom in Ramirez’s tone. No one had spoken to him like that in a while. The ones who did speak to him kept tip toeing around him as if they knew there was some problem, but not wanting to address it.

“NOW!”

“Ok, Ok, jeeze.” 

He uncapped the bottle first, tipping two of the little white pills into his hand before swallowing them dry and then getting unsteadily to his remaining foot. Ramirez didn’t make one single  move to help him as he hopped, or crawled his way across the room and towards the hallway where his room was.

Opening the door, it was clear the place hadn’t been touched since he moved in.

He didn’t really know why.

There was something about sleeping in a bed somewhere that made that place permanent.

He wobbled through the door into the bathroom, which, luckily for him had a walk in shower and a bench.

Despite his original dislike for the idea of getting up, the water felt good on his aching soul, and he spent some minutes trying to scrub the alcohol and grease from his body. A thick coat of steam rose up around him as the warm water evaporated, rolling down the glass in rivulets.

He admitted to feeling a little better as he hoped out of the shower and onto the heated tiles, gripping the railing on the wall for support as he moved over to the mirror.

His mouth tasted pretty foul, but at least his head was clear, and he took at least five minutes of brushing his teeth and two cup fulls of mouthwash to satisfy him.

He contemplated not shaving, but decided he might as well since he was here.

His leg was already beginning to ache with trying to hold himself up, and he took the indignity of crawling on his hands and knee into the bedroom, in only a towel, rooting under the bed until his hand fell on the cold outside of the prosthetic.

He closed his eyes unable to look as he pulled it out from under the bed and strapped it on feeling the motors whirr to life as he finally picked himself up off the floor.

He refused to look down as he walked over to the drawers and pulled out a fresh set of clothes, tossing his nasty ones into a bin in the closet.

Over the sound of the fan in the bathroom, he thought he could hear the sound of a vacuum and then pots and pans clanging in the kitchen.

Curious, he stepped out into the hallway only to find that the front room had been tidied. The chairs and overturned tables had been picked up, the glass had been vacuumed, and waffles was greedily staring at Ramirez as he popped a piece of toast from the toaster,  buttering it lightly before handing ti down to the dog, who took it gently and walked over to her bowl.

Ramirez looked over his shoulder, “She deserves it after having to deal with your dumbass for the past few weeks.”

He took a seat at the dining room table.

“Feeling any better?”

“Feeling human at least…. I guess.”

“Good,also you better be hungry because I am making breakfast.”

“I didn’t know you could cook.”

Ramirez raised an eyebrow at him, “Really, I  come from a long and illustrious line of people who enjoy fiestas and siestas, so of course I know how to cook. My abuela would be horrified you even suggested such a thing. Just because YOU can’t cook.” he turned to the kitchen, “All this food in here, and the only thing I find open is a box of cereal, which is weird because no milk was open, which makes me think you have just been shoveling it into your face dry like dog food. Speaking of dog food, you HAVE been feeding waffles, right?”

Adam frowned a little affronted, “Of course I have!”

“Good, because I was about to slap your bitch as if you weren't.” Across the room waffles licked her chops rather loudly.

Adam paused and looked down at the table as Ramirez walked over setting a plate in front of him.

“What are you doing here?”

“Taking care of you, what does it look like. My matronly side really comes out when I think my friends are being stupid. Now eat your breakfast, or the shoe comes off.”

“The shoe?’

“Another long and glorious tradition passed down through the centuries that involves throwing your shoe and disobedient children.”

Adam raised his hands, “Ok, ok, I’m eating.”

He picked up the fork as ramirez turned to sit down next to him.

As soon as he took a bite, his mouth exploded with flavor, it was so good it was almost as if he could experience it through all five senses, and even a few more. His mouth began to immediately water. He hadn’t eaten like this in months, and found that he was surprisingly ravenous.”

Ramirez looked on smugly as he polished off the plate and then saat back in his seat,.

“More?”

Adam nodded.

Ramirez took the plate and returned with a second helping, which Adam managed much more slowly this time.

“So….”

“So?”

“How is the crew.”

The  atmosphere seemed to sour just a little. Ramirez shrugged, “Since you left, its been ok I guess. Simon is doing alright but she kind of a stickler for rules, and becomes even more so when she is stressed, which kind of puts a damper on things….. She not as good as you are truth be told.”

There was a silence in the room.

“And…. Kanan?”

“Oh he’s still pissed. I am pretty sure when you get back you might have to duel him, or at least take a punch, but he’s sort of stepped up to take care of the clan and….. The weapons system since….”

“So she’s still gone is she/’

Ramirez sighed, “yeah, she's still gone, but she left a bunch of her stuff on the ship, and apparently she told kanan she was only going to be out for a couple of months, so here is to hoping she returns.” Ramirez paused turning to look at Adam with a frown.

Adam shrugged, “What.”

“You’re a real dumbass, you know that.” Adam sighed, “Soyou have said.”

“No no, you are going to hear me out for a second because I have a few things to say to you. I have been thinking bout it on my trip to find you, and I think its about time someone said them.”

Adam waited.

“You are the smartest dumb person I have ever met.” Adam blinked, “Here is a man who doesn’t need to do orbital calculations to fly a jet into orbit. He is a man who knows exactly what to do and what to say to new alien species. Here is a man who practically defined a generation, and yet here is that same dumbass abandoning his support system when he needs it the most. You have that habit, you know that. The habit of telling the Rest of us to F-off when you really need us. Its like you think that somehow we can’t handle your problems, when bitch, we have problems of our own, and if we can’t handle your we wouldn’t be offering to help. He leaned forward across the table, “You need to step up and do better because this is getting tiring.”

Adam remained in his seat staring at Ramirez and he sat back.

“Are you done?”

“No.” He slumped a bit, “But that will have to do for now.”

Adam sighed,, stared out the window at the Lunar landscape for a long moment before, “You know after years and years, after therapy and after psychologist after psychologist….. Not one has anyone ever said that.”

Ramirez watched him shiftily, not sure where this was going.

“Ive been waiting years for someone to tell me that?”

Ramirez blinked, “ok…. Ok well… shit I didn’t really expect that to work. I was just pissed to be honest.”

Adam shrugged.

“I get tired of people being so understanding all the time. It doesn’t help…. At least not me anyway.”

“Well in that case.”

Ramirez stood and walked over to his duffel bag, “You and I are going to go on a little vacation. Get out and experience the universe while we are still young. Find ourselves, and hopefully get into a shit ton of trouble.”

Adam frowned, “Are you sure about this.”

He grinned, “yes, and I know the perfect palace to start.”

He grabbed the duffle bag, and then flipped it’s contents onto the floor, “Your mom gave me these.”

Andam stood and walked over, turning to look down at the pile of clothes before snorting a laugh, “You can’t be serious.”

Ramirez grinned, “Nothing more wild that the final frontier.”

Adam reached down, and picked up two sets of wide brimmed cowboy hats from the floor pulling them apart. One was black and the other was a light tan, “You aren’t serious.”

“Do I look like I’m joking.”

With a snort he reached over and crammed the hat on to Ramirez’s head before pulling the black hat onto his own.

Ramirex struck a pose, ‘What do you think, make a pretty good cowboy, wont I.”

“You look like as much of a dumbass as I am.”

“Ouch, that really hurts me on the inside you know.”

Adam turned to look at his reflection in the window, “So this is how you are going to fix me huh, playing dress up?”

“Ok, number one I am hoping to help you fix yourself, number two your mother says you love playing dress up, and number three, I want to go on a cool vacation, but no one else will go with me.”

Adam sighed, and rolled his eyes, “Ok, ok we will go on a vacation.”

Ramirez rubbed his hands together evilly, “Excellent.”

the long ass review none of yall wanted but are still getting

Ooooook.... Finally got a moment to read and review in peace. Seriously, it was like the universe did not want me reading this chapter. Always something coming up like "thou shall not read the smut". But God and the universe can pry this chapter out of my cold dead hands.

Op, you said that you weren't crazy about how it came out, and I get it. As a creator is difficult to completely be satisfied with your work sometimes. And imma let you finish, but if THIS is the result of you not being completely satisfied with your work, I fear crave to see what you're gonna make when achieving your final form the ultimate tribble. I had to go and reread the previous chapters before this one (I don't control the hyperfixation, ok? At this point I take everything that gives me serotonin and milk it for all it's worth).

Coming from the high of chapter 5, you would expect things to slow down immediately.... And they kind of do... But at the same time they don't at all. Yes there's no flesh eating monster trying to murder our faces, thank you very much, but what about the pining, the tension between our couple, the will they won't they. It's absolutely enthralling. I had to remember to relax because I was starting to bite my nails. If you think I'm making it all up, sorry, but I truly felt like that. It's just very well written and I got really hooked up, ok? 

The aftermath of the crash and the loss of that many people is very well portrayed. There's gonna be a backlash to the one who survived and the effect of that one person is definitely well described. It doesn't have to be constantly present but something at the back of your mind, gnawing at it. Bones being this huge pillar of support and understanding, that's my jam. Totally here for it.

And then it starts. The back and forth, and the fact that yeah Spock is attentive towards her but it might just be due to the situation but he's still being sweet. I felt that bro, and despite having knowledge of how it might end, it still doesn't take away from the process and the tension of getting to that point. Which, tbh, I consider it a feat all on its own.

Stepping into a new environment and getting to meet new people is never truly described enough in my opinion (that's just my take, don't @ me fanfics writers), but I think you did it very well.

I couldn't hold back a squeal with Missus Spock, and I don't care how idiotic I sound when saying that sentence. I felt Scotty was a bit of an unexpected player. Usually in most of the fics it's Kirk and Bones doing the teasing (not that I dislike it, I live for that older brother energy), but it was quite refreshing seeing Scotty taking the lead and I can see no one better to come up with the title.

And how people would say it too!!

Up your alley definitely got me thinking of that line from BBC Sherlock "not my division". It's a lame joke but if it's stuck in MY head it's also gonna be stuck in YOURS. 

There's a good balance between physical touch and her staying away because, lord, is being married to a touch telepath tricky as hell! (especially when sharing quarters with one)

UGH, the depth of character it’s so GOOD!

Due to being so used by media, amnesia can be turned into a bit cliché but you presented it well and didn’t use it as a crutch (which would have been fine, but I find your take much more interesting).

Trying not to be horny on main for this man is as likely for him not to sit slutty: it just can’t happen. Bitches be projecting so much onto your reader that they’re about to enter the astral plain. It’s me. I’m bitches. THAT’S MY DIVISION!!!

And the rest of you don’t get to judge me, we ALL clicked on this series because we’re thirsting after this guy.

On a more PG note, night terrors and possible PTSD are a good way to show her inner turmoil and THANK GOD you added the mention of treatment and talking to a mental health professional. So many fics go for the we never talk about our mental issues and we act like they are not there. You get my solid respect for that (among many other things).

Ok, I gotta admit that the scene with the lute was so heartwarming. I’m weak against a soft!vulcan boi, ok?

The love confession is so good, I could just melt :’). Sometimes it can be so hard (for me at least) to do it fluently and to not either slow down the tempo of the scene or over saturate it. You knocked it out of the park.

And then comes the smut….

Not to be thirsty but oh my fucking god. jesus fucking christ. holy fu cking shit.

Yeah, lets say that you definitely got me more than hot and bothered during that one. You just went ahead and grabbed like most of the greatest kinks and gave us an absolute masterpiece. Don’t know if you have written smut before, but I gotta tell you…you don’t have to worry at all.

And although I have no evidence of such thing, I got a feeling you used my drunken rambling against me when I said LET SPOCK SAY FUCK and was like ‘fine, let’s give them what they want’. if so, don’t know if to feel embarrassed or flattered

Oh god, he does dirty talk, battle is lost lads. Panties ended in like…Mordor at this point. It’s not something easy to do for his type of character, but you made I work perfectly

I do believe Kirk is never gonna look a Spock the same way after hearing what went down that night. xD

In order to finally round up my thoughts, pacing is well kept, and you manage to establish a good chemistry for our couple, the tension is absolutely sublime and the smut is just *cheff’s kiss*

I loved how the series turned out and you should be really proud of your work. I sure am and hope to keep reading your stuff in the future.

Fucking superb, you funky little tribble

 ALL THE LOVE AND LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!!!  :D

originally submitted by @lumar014

I legit cannot tell you how tickled I was reading this review. Much love, much love.

[things-can-be-seen-here]

Oh! That uh. Headcanon thing??? Is that ok? If it was the Germany Bros and Denmark with zzz, pda, and built?? I dunno if your still doing this or not. But thank you anyways!! You're writing is good!!! And remember to take care of yourself.

I didn’t know if you wanted Germany Bros as a ship or as separated characters so I did them separately, but I think you’ll have the image to how it would look like in their relationship :D I hope you’ll like it! Im very glad that you like my writing! 

Enjoy!!

Affection = How affectionate are they? How do they show it?

Germany - He tries his best to show affection in any possible way. He just has no idea how to do it and that makes him a bit unsure of himself. He uses gifts and dates as a form of showing affection, he even writes love letters. But he is always unsure about whether it’s good enough or not.

Prussia - Not very affectionate. Gilbert likes to assure and be assured of their love by words, not actions. He knows it might seem stupid, but he can read honesty in the other’s voice, so he knows if they mean it or if there’s something wrong.

Built = How did their relationship begin? Who took the first step?

Germany - Ludwig had never started a relationship before. He tries to show his love and he tries to read the other person, to see if he is not getting mixed signals or something like that.

Prussia - Prussia is being all touchy and laughy with the other, bumping into them playfully and asking them out for ice cream, coffee, to see a movie and so on. It comes to the point when he assumes the other loves him too, even to the point when he assumes that they are dating. Just when he leans for a kiss, he realizes that “No, I should have say something” and his s/o thinks “Oh, I should have known!”. It usually ends up in a relationship, so he doesn’t mind the awkward minute between them when they pull away after the kiss.

Denmark - No Matter how old Matthias is, or how many relationships he had, he is always very ashamed when asking somebody out. He is blushing, stuttering, he is fidgeting his fingers and he always, always end up asking “So... Can I kiss you?” and then “And... Could I kiss you again?”. His partner finds that funny, Matthias not so much.

Care = Do they take care of each other - mentally and physically? Are they usually interested in how the other’s day was?

Germany - He does not want to talk about his day. It gets tiring doing it for the first half of a day, he does not want to talk about it for the rest of it. But he is interested in how the other’s day was or how the project ended or if they felt happy... As for physical care, Ludwig likes to give massages. With fancy oils and candles. He thinks it’s a nice way to relax after a long day.

Prussia - he doesn’t like talking. He keeps his problems for himself and he assumes people want to do the same. So if his partner wants to talk about their day, they are welcome. But he won’t share how his day went. He prefers watching a movie and relaxing while cuddling, or just napping together. He feels much better after that. He believes that thing helps his partner as well.

Dates = How often do they go on dates? How do they look?

Germany - For important dates, Ludwig likes to go on fancy lunches and dinners. He likes long walks and alcohol tasting. If it’s just spending free time together, he likes to go hiking, he likes to visit museums and generally just travel to see new things.

Prussia - Is more of a lazy dater. He prefers staying home or somewhere close, like on a nearest beach or in nearest bar. Gilbert isn’t fan of fancy places if he doesn’t have the reason for it. But once there is a special occasion or his partner and him get to be together after a long time, he’s the one to chose a theater play or a restaurant.

Exceptions = What do they do, to make their partner happy (even if they don't enjoy it?)

Germany - Sings or reads to his partner in the bed. He really prefers not to do so, but once his partner asks him to, he can’t say no.

Prussia - Cleaning. If he’s partner is away, he takes care of the house, of the backyard, he goes shopping, does laundry, he will change sheets and clean the windows. He hates it, it takes whole day (maybe two) but the look on his s/o’s face is always worth it.

Future = Do they think about it? How does it look?

Germany - He’s a week in a relationship but he already knows how their wedding will look like and what will they kid name’s be. He knows it’s ridiculous, but he always feels like his partner is the one for him.

Prussia - Gilbert knows better than to give himself a hope of any kind. He is open to talks about future and he takes them seriously, but he doesn’t think of it much. He would be happy to make his dream future come true one day... Lots of kids and animals in big house - that’s what he wants the most.

Gifts = How often do they give the other gifts? What are the gifts?

Germany - Every anniversary, anytime they see each other after a long time, every birthday, Christmas, Easter... He uses every special occasion just to show that he loves the other person. Why? Because he can’t use his words properly. It’s always something practical and rarely it’s clothes or accessory.

Prussia - Is terrible with gifts. He is trying, he’s trying his best! But he can’t do it and he needs helps. He often asks somebody to help him and he is listening to his partner so he at least tries to buy the thing they seem to want the most.

Hiatus = Did they ever had to take a break from each other? Or is their relationship smooth?

Neither of them is fan of breaks. Whilst Ludwig believes everything can be settled after a long discussion, Gilbert knows that a break equals a break up.

Item = What belongs to the other, but they always use it?

Germany - He is usually bigger, so he can’t keep any clothes and wear them. But he really likes to borrow watch or glasses. It’s subtle, it’s elegant and no one knows.

Prussia - He goes with the saying “What is mine is yours and what is yours is mine”. (He borrows shoes a lot.)

Jealousy = Are they jealous? Does it show?

Germany - Not without a proper reason. He is trying to let everything slide and make himself believe, that there is no reason he should be jealous. So he does not show it either.

Prussia -  He hates being jealous, but he is afraid that somebody might be better. He thinks he is good enough, but there is always someone who can be a better match for his partner. He does show it in a strange way - he si trying to please his partner and make himself look better, just to show his partner how good their relationship is and why they should stay together.

Kitchen = Who owns it?

As for Germany and Prussia, they both have their way around the kitchen. But the can’t work together, they are very different types of cooks, so the switch. (Ludwig end up cleaning after Gilbert most of the time.)

Likes and dislikes = What is the best and the worst thing about their partner?

Germany - Ludwig really likes when his partner is honest. At any cost. On the other hand, being lazy is a big no-no in a relationship.

Prussia - Gilbert appreciates if his partner is laughing at his jokes. However terrible they are, he just wants to make his partner smile. What he doesn’t like is being lectured by the other. He can stand it in private, but once it happens on a public place, that’s it for him. Gilbert knows he has many flaws, but he knows his worth and he won’t let anyone scold him in front of other people.

Mistake = What did they do and how did the situation ended?

Germany - Time is always a problem. He hates to admit it, but he could give his partner more attention and spend more time with him. As an apology, he buys something that his s/o wanted for a longer time and leaves his phone at home, spending as much time with his partner as possible.

Prussia - He does a lot of mistakes, but he never admits it to himself. So he is ignoring it, hoping his partner isn’t hurt in any way. They both end up forgetting about it in few days.

Nicknames = How do they call each other?

Germany - He doesn’t like nicknames, he never uses them. It feels weird for some reason. But when he uses any other name than his partner’s given name, he says it with the softest tone possible.

Prussia - Gilbert is playing with names. And he uses them all at the same time. (And he makes up nicknames for himself.)

Out of character = What is something nobody would believe they do in a relationship?

Germany - He is very needy cuddler. Once his job is done and he can finally rest, he prefers to have his partner near him. They don’t have to talk or kiss or anything, he just wants to be close to them and hug on the couch.

Prussia - Gilbert loves big cheesy romantic gestures. Every other anniversary he borrows a microphone and speaker and he stands under his partner’s window, singing ABBA and Bruno Mars’ old songs.

PDA = Their opinion on PDA? How does it look?

Germany - No. He knows that people don’t like seeing it and then it’s a private thing. So why would he want to show the others how much he is in love when his partner is the only one who has to know? Even when they see each other after a long time, he just hugs his partner and kisses them on both cheeks.

Prussia - It’s not like he doesn’t like PDA, he just isn’t that big of a affection-showing partner. He doesn’t need to hold the other’s hand or brush their shoulders together. He doesn’t really miss kissing anyone, he doesn’t need to be touched or touch. As long as he is sure that his love is being returned, he’s more than happy.

Denmark - Matthias is a very touchy person. He likes to hold his partner hand, he likes to hug them a lot... He enjoys those things. But he wouldn’t like them to be screaming at other people, so he is very subtle with them. There is the thing though - he can’t keep his lips away. Whether it’s pecks or just whispering, he keeps his lips close to his s/o’s body.

Quirk = What is a silly activity they really enjoy?

Germany - He loves shopping - in pet stores. He spends way too much there every now and then. But he never keeps those things (not until he goes there on purpose, for his own dogs). He is giving them to animal shelters, helping them as much as he can.

Prussia - Singing naked around the house. It starts in the shower, but it continues until he’s completely dry (without using a towel). He doesn’t need a microphone, he is just loud and he dances with his eyes closed. (Oh yes. It got awkward few times.)

Rough times = Do they argue? How often?

Germany - He can get loud if there is a problem that is ignored by his partner, but once the “debate” starts accelerating and it becomes an argument, he backs off and uses more calm, soft voice. He’s a patient man, so if he starts an argument, it’s not more often than once a month.

Prussia - He’s blunt and oblivious and even though it’s not much of a arguing problem, he often says things differently that he should and explains things to himself the wrong way. That leads to hard and dangerous conversations few times a week.

Sex = nothing too explicit, just a random headcanon

Germany - He’s very shamed of it, but when he’s the big spoon in bed, he gets a boner too often. It never happens to him, even if his partner is teasing him any other time of a day or place, he has his buddy under control. But once he is in bed, oh boy. It just keeps happening.

Prussia - He loves morning sex. Slow, relaxes, caring morning love making is the best kind of all.

Together time = How often does that happen? How are they usually spending it?

Germany - He loves his job. He knows it's bad, it's actually the worst, but his job is very important. But when Friday comes, he spends whole night planning their weekend together, making sure both of them will have something fun to do. (Unfortunately he never turns his phone off and chose his job over his partner.)

Prussia - He’s always putting work on the second place. He doesn’t care if the documents were supposed to be finished yesterday. He’s just going on a date and nothing can stop him. Does he regret his decision? Yes and no. Yes - he hated doing his job last minute. No - the date is always worth it. He prefers movie nights, cinema dates, he can even settle for operas and musicals. Anything to spend two hours quietly admiring his s/o and then having what to talk about for the rest of the evening. (He keeps all of the tickets.)

Unacceptable = What will they NEVER do in a relationship?

Germany - However jealous he might be, he never confronts his partner. Ludwig believes that trust and honesty is the most important thing in a relationship so he thinks his s/o would come to him and tell him if something was off. He is a bit worried, sure, but he would never make a scene or corner his partner. He just waits patiently, however hard it is.

Prussia - He can't break up with his partner. He knows it's bad and that it's terrible thing but he can't make himself break someone's heart. So he is bad boyfriend, he is making scenes, he is doing that typical "What's wrong? Nothing!" thing and finds as much excuses as he can, to be away from his partner. He just doesn't want to hurt the other, he knows just as much or a pain it is.

View worth millions = What is the part of their partners body they admire the most?

Germany - For Ludwig it's definitely hands. Not nails, he doesn't care about those at all. They can be long, short, acrylic or they can have dirt behind them. Whatever. But hands, fingers, skin... He likes to touch his partners hands a lot and caress them. Hard to tell which he likes more - if small or big hands, if soft skin or hard skin of hands that worked a lot. He just adores hands and palms.

Prussia - Gilbert is a simple man. He really is. But no so simple that he would settle for round butts and big breasts (not that he doesn't like those). Or for big muscles. But he's a hair man. He likes to play with them, caress them, smell them... He even braids them, even though he is terrible at it. He's just having fun.

When separated =  Are they calling each other? Missing each other much? What happens when they see each other after a loner while?

Germany - He doesn’t want to be needy or annoying, so he is never the one to call and he’s texting the other just occasionally. It’s always a short, direct text, such as “Miss you.” “Love you.”  “Hope you will come back soon.” but he answers every call or text in a minute, trying to make the conversation as long as possible.

The reunion is his favourite part. He buys one flower and big chocolate box and cooks lunch. In the evening, he and his s/o go to a restaurant for a fancy dinner, which always ends up in them talking until the late night, and then going home and cuddling in the bed.

Prussia - Doesn't care if he's annoying. It's the opposite, actually. He uses "one word - one text bubble" style of texting. Not that he wants to, he just uses it as a way of reminding his s/o that he is alive and they are still dating... (And that he misses his s/on a lot). He's the king of emojis too. He uses them much more than it's necessary and he actually thinks a lot about which he will chose.

As for reunion, he's always asking one question over and over again to the point when he annoys himself. "Missed me much?". To which is s/o answers "No, not at all." just because they want to mess with him. But once they say "Yes, very much." he is the happiest man in the world, he jumps around and laughs loudly, hugging the other tightly.

Xtra = extra headcanon

Germany - Ludwig loves to play RPG games. He won’t tell anyone, he could never tell anyone. But he secretly loves them. He got so mad the other time, he scared Gilbert to death with how angry he was and how much he was cursing.

Prussia - He is watching cartoons. Not anime - cartoons. My little pony, Miss Mallard Mystery, Totally spies, Avatar, Gravity Falls, Phineas & Ferb... you name it, he knows it.

Yours only = marriage headcanon

Germany - Ludwig cried. He cried at every single wedding he had attended and he cried at his own wedding. His s/o though it was cute, but Ludwig couldn’t look into anyone’s eyes until he started drinking. It felt a bit awkward... But he couldn’t help it. His s/o was just the most beautiful person in the world and now they were only his.

Prussia - Was looking just stunning. He was nice, he was smiling, he was thanking everybody... Gilbert was a changed man on his wedding day. He was taking a lot of pictures (even though he had the best and most expensive photographers around him) and selfies. And then dancing - Gilbert had danced with everyone who was invited. Twice. He gave his soul and heart to every dance and for the first time they all had to admit that the Prussian looked hot.

Zzz = sleep headcanon

Germany - Some might think that Ludwig is a heavy sleeper. That he goes to bed and won’t wake up until the alarm goes off. The opposite is the truth - Ludwig reacts to every sound, every smell... He knows when his s/o moves. That’s actually the reason why he doesn’t need an alarm. He keeps waking up on the sound of the clock in the kitchen (which is on the other side of the house).

Prussia - Gilbert sleeps with his door open. What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger. Haha, sorry... But he really does! And his windows open too. He likes night breeze. Why, you might ask, won’t he just close the door? He’s too lazy. When he goes to bed (which isn’t sooner than 2AM) he just wants to sleep. He can’t be bothered to do anything anymore.

Denmark - It doesn’t matter how long his sleep or nap is (it can be five minutes or five hours) but he always wakes up with pink cheeks. Rest of the Nordic is making fun of him, but just because they don’t want to admit that Matthias looks... kind of cute.

The thing that Denmark, Prussia and America have in common is, that they once made a pact and swore they will never ever wear pajamas again. Nightgown is cool, but they prefer to sleep in boxers or sweatpants (commando).

[lisinfleur]

EBMK - Chapter 03: Rats

Author’s Notes | CC’s fans, please, be aware this is not a chapter for you guys. I disliked him so, I couldn’t avoid doing something about what he did to Mads… Words | 3785 ⁑ Warnings: Major character’s death, blood, wound, violence. Cursing a lot.

"God damn, Adrian, are you at least listening to me?"

Victoria's voice sounded to take him back to Earth once again: his thoughts were flying around that situation, remembering CC's expressions while he was talking to that woman.

It was him. Adrian was sure it was him.

"I'm talking to you!" Victoria insisted and Adrian sighed, rubbing his face.

"What?"

"What?" she asked, annoyed, "I'm speaking for half of an hour about the child's crib and all you have to tell me is 'what?'?"

She was becoming more and more unbearable, but Adrian sighed one more time. "It was the baby and all those hormones," he tried to tell to himself, sighing, getting up, embracing her from behind.

"I'll get you the crib you want, and I'll set it up in a pair of hours without needing any help, ok? Just relax... Everything will be fine and quite on time for our little Patrick."

She sighed.

"What about this new work?" She asked. "Adrian, you're not involved with shit again, are you?"

Kinda... But he wouldn't tell her, of course.

"No," he stated, firm. "I'm working as a security guard, I told you. Same shit I did at the club, but with a better salary and to take care of a warehouse, which means no drunken assholes to punch my face, ok? Now relax..."

"You better not lose this one..." she threatened, getting another sigh from him.

It was really annoying. But he had to be patient, right?

"It was the baby and all those hormones..."

"I won't..."

He wouldn't. He knew that. But to lose or not that job wasn't the problem at that moment. Adrian just couldn't stop thinking about what he saw. He couldn't stop thinking about what he knew.

"Bro..." Mads' voice sounded, waking him up from his thoughts one more time. "You better tell me what is the shit you have been smoking on these cigarettes of yours cause fuck, dude, you're high as fuck!" he giggled, sipping from the can of energetic he brought with him to the warehouse.

Adrian giggled little, trying to disguise once again. But Mads had already noticed something was different with his friend.

"Problems with your old lady? You're strange, brother..." Mads said and Adrian sighed.

Maybe... Maybe Mads would trust him, right?

"It's not her," Adrian said, looking at him. "Mads... About..."

"CC!" Mads said, interrupting Adrian and causing his spine to freeze when CC came out of nowhere crossing hands with Mads and patting his shoulder.

Shit! That bastard was a damn ghost? What a moment to appear...

"Gonna take a while at the warehouse tonight?" Mads asked, smiling.

Shit... He was always so happy around that guy! Adrian thought for an instant that Mads was like a puppy: whoever patted his head would have him shaking his tail around for a long time.

But somehow, CC was more than just a friend and Adrian could feel that Mads would really get disappointed when he could see the truth about his pal.

"No," CC said, smiling at him. "Just passing by to pick up some things for Tom. About this... That load that we're waiting... When does it comes again?"

There it was... Adrian swallowed dry: CC was getting information like this, in casual conversations, abusing Mads' total innocence and trust that he was talking to a brother of the club... A friend.

"If I'm not wrong, three or five weeks. I'll take a look for you at the warehouse and I'll send you a message with it, ok?"

"Fine, brother. See ya," CC said, leaving as Mads was exchanging cans.

He was drinking that shit like water.

"You'll fuck your kidneys drinking this shit," Adrian warned and Mads licked his lips offering the can towards him.

"Take a sip, it's not that strong," he said.

But Adrian wasn't even able to swallow that shit, spitting the sip he took from the can on the ground, coughing and causing Mads to laugh out loud.

"Fuck, Mads! You're fucking drinking gasoline! Shit, man... This won't fuck your kidneys! This will fuck your entire system!" Adrian shouted as Mads took another sip, drinking that as if it was really a good taste.

"Little girl," he mocked. "Now tell me, sweet-lily-pad, what were you saying about the problems? It's not Victoria? Then what it is that it's making you high like this, Adrian?" Another sip into his throat and Adrian thought it was better to drink that whole can than have to say that shit.

"Mads..."

He looked around and Mads stopped walking, looking around as well, thinking for a moment Adrian could be really in trouble. They were the same kind of people... He knew when someone was looking around like that before speaking, the police would surely be into whatever shit that was to come.

"What, bro? You're getting me scared."

"I just don't know how to tell you this shit, man... I just can tell you it's fucking huge," Adrian said, causing Mads to cringe.

"Fuck..."

"No, brother... Fuck is too little for this. Look," Adrian said. "Tonight, when we stop in the middle of the turns to have dinner, you sit with me and I'll tell you everything. But you must promise me you won't doubt what I say!"

"Fuck, Adrian, what the fuck, brother? I can't wait this long! And I won't fucking doubt you, man, but..."

"No," Adrian said, still looking around, causing Mads to be really anxious now. "Shit is huge, and I promise you: you'll understand my need for us to be completely alone when I tell you this. Trust me, Mads... You'll get your jaw dropped."

Mads cursed one more time, grunting annoyed.

The whole energetic inside those four cans he drunk wasn't enough to make him swallow the ball of anxiety in his throat.

What was that shit Adrian had to tell him?

Why he couldn't tell so far?

The first hours of his turns were real torture and the minutes dragged until the time for them to finally sit. Dinner? His ass! Mads wanted to know and he didn't even touch his food.

As soon as they met each other, Mads held Adrian by his shoulders, anxious.

"Now speak, bro. You're getting on my nerves with this silence!"

Adrian never saw Mads so anxious in his life. But he sighed.

Now there wasn't a way back.

"It's about CC, brother... I couldn't tell you that time, because he was around yet, but... Mads, when I was arrested... When I was arrested, I saw CC at the police station and... Brother, he wasn't there to do any shit like speaking to the cops or being arrested as well... He was speaking to one of the policewomen there...  As if they were settling something about an infiltration, exchanging information... He even gave his cellphone to her, so she could see something and took some stuff with her that looked like one of those shit to record voices..."

Mads was livid. He giggled, nervously, looking at Adrian with disbelief.

"Bro... This is not fun, man..."

But his giggles just got Adrian more nervous.

"Mads, I'm not kidding, bro. This is no joke, man, I saw him! I'm sure it was him! And I spent a lot of time into that shit, so he's here already long enough to know too much, bro... Mads he can burst you guys, and it would fall entirely into you, brother! You brought him in, you're the one always speaking to him. He's always asking you questions, isn't he?"

Something Mads couldn't deny. Asking questions, favors... Shitty stuff like photos and sometimes... Sometimes names...

"Fuck," Mads rubbed his head and face.

And his trembling fingers lit a cigarette he smoked as if his brain couldn't work without that smoke.

"Fuck... FUCK!" he cursed, punching the wall of the warehouse and Adrian held him back, looking at him.

"Mads, calm down, brother. Remember the cams, dude, we cannot just spit it out. No one will believe our word against the word of a man you told me is almost the man of trust for Tom."

"I fucking brought him in, Adrian! Tom will fucking kill me, man!" Mads said, anguished. "He's gonna fucking blow me up!"

"Not if we can blow CC's head first, man. Calm down..." Adrian said, sighing. "We need to be smarter than him, brother. It will take a while, but we must observe him. Have some proofs, some photos, some shit to show Tom he's not trustable and we noticed that. If you're able to prove he's not who Tom thinks he is, then maybe you can end up this shit with your ass safe!"

"Fuck!" Mads cursed once again. "Are you sure? Adrian, are you sure it was him?" he asked, nervous.

"I'm sorry, bro... I even heard that name. I remember I giggled because of how strange it was to hear someone being called CC, but the police officer hit my head saying there was nothing funny around for me to laugh and they took me away. It was him, brother. I'm sorry, man."

"No," Mads said, sitting at the bench they had to have their dinner, sighing and taking another breath of his cigarette. "It's... It's fine, man you're... You did nothing, you just... Fuck... Fuck, dude! I trusted him! How could he?"

Adrian sat beside his friend, patting Mads' back, sighing.

"I know how you feel, brother... I got my back stabbed sometimes as well. Hey... I'll help you, ok?" he said, catching Mads' glare. "Just act normally with him. We try to observe him, to catch the proves and then, bang. We put him down and show everything to Tom. I'm sure you'll get your colors with it, brother."

Mads looked at Adrian's smile with surprise.

He wasn't trying to get colors like him. He wasn't trying to get the credit. Instead, he was giving Mads all the information he knew and allowing him to use it to get his own colors Adrian knew he wanted so bad. Something warmed Mads' heart and he held Adrian's hand tightly into his.

"I'll never forget what you're doing for me, man. We may not have the same blood but you're my brother, Adrian. And I'll honor it, bro."

Adrian nodded, holding Mads' hand firmly.

That feeling of brotherhood and trust was something Adrian knew very well how valuable it was. And he silently swore to honor it as well.

He would have Mads' back and protect his brother.

No matter at what cost.

  The two of them spent the next month finding breaches to follow CC and observe him. With a certain difficulty, Mads kept the relationship in between him and CC active, sometimes blaming Joy for his sad or angry reactions, saying he was having issues with the pregnant woman at home, apologizing for being harsh or sound disappointed.

Until that point, CC had bit the bait and wasn't really suspecting Mads was aiming him along with Adrian.

Some times more, Adrian found a way to take pictures of CC along with that woman - they were meeting more now that the load CC asked Mads about before was about to arrive.

"I can bet they'll do something when this load comes. I can feel it!" Adrian warned. "We must hold up..."

"But we have the pics, brother, shouldn't we..." Mads said, but Adrian held him back.

"We have just pics of him, Mads. It proves anything. He can say anything to justify... I don't know, he can say he's fucking her... And also, I think her son's father was CC's friend. Something about the war. He can say he's visiting the boy and then we're fucked. Patience, brother. If something goes wrong with this load and we show this up, then Tom will have enough proof that CC is fucking up with the club and then, boom, man. We'll be safe and he'll be busted."

Adrian had a whole plan in his mind and since he was pretty secure with his ideas, Mads decided to follow him.

Some days before the load arrives, CC confirmed the date once again, asking Mads to confirm the load would arrive two days earlier than it was predicted to come. Mads gave the right information, ensuring CC would have the right times and places where the load would be delivered.

And such as Adrian predicted, the places were busted by the police at the right time to make prisons and fuck the club. Two great men from Tom were locked up and they even had wounded people around, potentializing the damages and getting Tom infuriated like crazy.

However, things got a little bit out of control.

When Adrian came to speak to Mads that maybe that was the right time to deliver CC's head, the club made a call: Tom wanted everyone inside the club at that evening, cellphones in hand.

He was searching for the rat by himself. He knew someone was stabbing his back and he wanted the fucker...

And to complete, Mads was about to explode.

"She's delivering, bro! My son is being born today and I'm stuck in here! Fuck, man!"

Shit.

Adrian could feel his brother's despair. After all, it was his son being born and he couldn't even have his phone to know what was going on: all the phones were taken by Tom who locked them all in a room while he was inside his own room, checking phone by phone, history by history.

CC was sweating, but he was keeping himself whole. Even when Tom came out questioning him why his history was erased, CC had the guts to explain he had low memory and his device was configured to erase it automatically from time to time... The bastard was damn good, after all.

"Did they call me?" Mads asked, looking at Tom completely anxious.

"Get your ass calm, bud. We have issues more important to solve now!" Tom spat, before coming inside his room once again, causing Mads to have an outburst of despair.

Adrian saw CC's eyes following his brother when Mads got up, anguished, leaving towards the bathroom. CC rose his hand, preventing the older members to follow Mads mutely telling them he would do it by himself. And so, Adrian took his own time looking at the bigger guy near Tom's office door.

"I wanna pee..." he said, causing the big man to sigh.

"Go, CC is there, he brings the two of you lil' girls together," he mocked, insinuating Mads and him were a couple as he had heard some of those idiots commenting sometimes.

But Adrian had no time for that shit - Mads' life was in danger. He knew he had to burst the shit at once before Tom could see the pictures in his phone and Mads' as well.

Luckily, CC was speaking to Mads as soon as he arrived.

And Adrian felt, for the first time, that all the bad luck he had in his life paid for that single moment when he shot to the moon...

And hit the damn jackpot...

"There is a hall under the club. It will lead to the streets. Go, I'll cover up for you..." CC was speaking while holding a trapdoor open on the ground, looking at Mads.

Taking advantage of his nervous state to get him out of the club in the middle of a pressure moment...

Adrian could bet he would put the blame on Mads... Say he had fled to avoid being taken after discovered...

"You'll cover up for him, CC?" Adrian said, surprising them both and leaving the bathroom door opened. "For what reason? So, you can blame Mads for the information you have been delivering to your hottie at the police station and get your butthole safe from the dick Tom wants to put up on the butt of our rat?"

CC let go of the trapdoor. And Mads stepped away from him.

"What are you talking about?" CC said, smiling at Adrian, trying to keep the disguise. "I was just trying to help him..."

"Help him what?" Adrian said, loud and angrily.

Watching as CC's mask started falling when he waved his hands looking at the door, trying to gesticulate for Adrian to speak lower, avoid attracting the other's attention.

Mads anguish started becoming anger... How could CC do this to him after all he made for that man? How could he call him a brother if he would stab him from behind like this?

"Would you blame me, CC?" Mads mumbled, feeling the last shards of his remorse becoming nothing but dust.

CC didn't deserve his trust.

CC should burn and Adrian was right.

"I wouldn't do such a thing! I was trying to get you to Joy! Brother..." CC tried.

And then, Mads yelled, calling the attention of everyone outside.

"DON'T CALL ME BROTHER!"

"What is fucking happening among you bitches here?" Røed came, annoyed.

It was enough for Mads and Adrian had to do nothing from that moment on...

"This bastard is the fucking rat you're searching for! Adrian recognized him from the police station and we have been monitoring him as he's delivering our information to that bitch he fucks there! He was trying to convince me to get into this damn trapdoor so I could flee to see Joy and my son and then he would fucking put the blame on me and make you all believe I'm the damn fucking rat when he's the fucking bastard!" Mads lost his mind.

And Adrian saw CC raising his hands, giggling, trying to keep the lie.

"Mads is just nervous, Røed. Give him a break. His wife is delivering and he's just wanting this shit to end..."

"It's true," Adrian said, sighing and getting Røed's attention. "Tell Tom to look at my phone's gallery. He'll find pictures of CC and that woman meeting each other. I heard his name and saw him at the police station speaking to her for the first time I was arrested. And I recognized him when Mads introduced us both. He has been passing information to her for at least the last four years. He's your rat."

CC frowned at Adrian knowing it was over for him, intending to pull something from his vest, but Røed acted quicker and aimed his gun on CC's head, preventing him to go forward with the intention.

"Let's see if the chicks are lying or speaking the truth, CC... Chill... Brother," he said, ironizing the last word.

Waving his hand for someone to call Tom at the office.

But it wasn't necessary...

Tom was already coming with Adrian's phone in his hand and he picked up Adrian's collar, hitting him against the bathroom's wall.

"What's this, butcher? What are those pictures?" he said, showing the pics of CC along with the woman.

Trying to take the chance of Tom's anger to flee, CC moved towards the trapdoor and then, Røed shot his leg, getting the man down.

"The two pups have been following a rat for us, Tom," Røed said, convinced Adrian and Mads were telling the truth. "They say the woman in these pics is a police officer. Adrian recognized CC from the police station. It seems the butcher was arrested right when this funky was delivering our shit to the bitch."

"She's no bitch, you bastard," CC grunted, causing Tom to giggle, disgusted, letting go of Adrian's clothes.

"You son of a bitch!" he yelled, kicking CC's wounded leg, ripping a grunt of pain from the man down on the ground. "You," he said, pulling Mads' collar this time. "You brought him! You fucking brought him into my club!"

"He was used," Adrian said, looking at Tom. "CC used Mads to get in because everyone knows how much Mads wanted the colors... So, he used the side services Mads was doing when he started to get into the club through him and get your trust by making Mads look like a sucker."

Tom looked at Adrian, giving his words full attention. But CC started speaking, knowing it was over for him.

"Mads was easy to get... He... Was trying to lick the floor you step on, doing anything for the club... His loyalty was blind... All I had to do was make him believe I was as loyal as he could be."

"You motherfucker!" Mads yelled, ready to advance and hit CC, but Tom hit his palm against Mads' chest, stopping him.

"Gun," he said, extending his hand to Røed who readily delivered the pistol in his hand.

And Tom passed it towards Mads' hands.

"Prove me you're no sucker, pup. What do we do to rats, Mads?" he asked.

And Adrian swallowed dry when Mads' shaking hands got the gun up, aiming it at CC's head.

"We kill it with fire... Before it reproduces..." Mads said.

CC closed his eyes before the shot could be heard. A precise gunshot in the middle of CC's eyes.

"Good boy," Tom said, patting Mads' back. "Røed, get my vest from this bastard."

Røed messed with CC's body, taking off the vest of the club from his body and delivering it to Tom who hit it against Mads' chest.

"Welcome to the brotherhood, wolf," he said, getting a surprised expression from Mads' face before he turned towards Adrian. "Get another vest for the butcher. And give it to him as soon as he cleans up this mess... I like you, boy." Tom said, looking at Adrian that felt his stomach sunk into his belly.

There was a side service he didn't like to do.

"Get rid of the rat's body. Take a shower. And get dressed in your new colors. And you," he looked at Mads. "Go home. Your child is born and you have a boy. Go see your wife and come back to celebrate... Brother." he said, causing shivers to come down Mads' spine. "We have too much to be happy about today... Mads is a father, his seed is strong and we have a new male pup! A rat is down and two brothers are born!" Tom yelled at the door of the bathroom. "HOWL YOU BASTARDS! IT'S A FUCKING HAPPY DAY!"

The hall became noisy as Mads and Adrian exchanged a glare.

Adrian knew it would be a disgusting work to "get rid of that mess". But Mads' life was safe.

So, it worth the price.

okay, so here's the long ass rant that was promised. It's very much centered around Jaime and Brienne/Jaime because apart from Tyrion they're like the only reason I'm still invested (and this blog will stan book!Jaime to the bitter end) though don't expect any sort of Cersei bashing. Jaime/Cersei is complicated and boils down to more than "OMG SHE'S A TOXIC BITCH!!!" but more on that later. Obviously, there will be spoilers behind the cut and speculations regarding the rest of the show + a reference to a potential leak for ep 5 that's basically been going around since even before the show started so I don't know how big of a surprise that is to anyone.

Starting off with a couple of plot points:

The Funeral Scene Dany and Jorah were heartbreaking :( I loved those two together so much :( Jon's speech was fantastic but you know it would have been more moving if literally ANYONE apart from the people in the North + Cersei's gang had been aware of the danger heading their way. Like I bet you could talk to any peasant in King's Landing and they wouldn't even have a clue what White Walker means.

Gendry Baratheon of Storm's End & The Feast A++ scene, would watch again. Loved that Dany gave a shoutout to Arya and drunken Tyrion leaning on drunken Jaime warms my heart. Love my dysfunctional Lannisters. Also as much as I dislike certain aspects of the drinking game (see below) I appreciate Tyrion's match-making. He's a good bro. And seeing Brienne so relaxed with her friends is just... good stuff. Tormund is a cutie as always and Tyrion pouring him a drink after he realizes he has no chance with Brienne was the best. So was the Hound acting as Tormunds relationship counsellor. Poetic cinema. The token and conveniently available Northern women throwing themselves all over any male single character wasn't on the other hand. Loved that Sansa and Sandor finally got a scene together. Didn't love the 'glad I was raped so I could become the woman I am now' bullshit. Gendry is the fucking cutest! Smitten to the core. I am tentatively confident that he and Arya will work it out if they survive.

Tormund's & Sam's Goodbye Glad they got a goodbye with Jon, glad Tormund got Ghost cause Jon sure as hell doesn't deserve him. Like not even a pat. How the direwolves were treated pisses me off so much. At this point, I hope we'll never see them again just so they can be alive and happy wandering around with the best boi.

Missandei & Rhaegal No comment tbh. What's even the point anymore.

Onwards to relationships & characters:

The Starks & Dany I AM SO SICK OF THIS. SO SICK OF IT. Arya did not cut Littlefinger's scheming throat last season so that they can now scheme and bicker amongst themselves. Yes, Sansa has a right to worry about the North. Yes, Dany fucked up more than once since she came to Westeros. But those characters faced a tsunami of undead together and them still being too stubborn to even entertain working together without a hidden agenda to bring down Cersei is stupid and PLAIN BAD WRITING!     Now Tyrion is being dragged into this shitshow as well and I just... ugh Varys why

Dany Listen, I'm not the biggest Dany fan, far from it. But they're treating her like shit! She lost so much during that battle and there she is at the table watching others bond while she's alone. Like jfc Jon I'm not saying I approve of this whole thing but go hug her or something, she's given her all in the battle. Again I don't approve of most of the things she's done since coming to Westeros but can you imagine how isolating this experience must be. Apart from a select few survivors, everyone close to her for the past years is now back in the company of people they've known for far longer. They belong, they have bonds, friendships, loves, family and she's not part of it, has no place in this. She must feel so lonely right now. And instead of highlighting that (or btw dealing with the PTSD that everyone surely suffers from after that battle) they make her go all MAD QUEEN! Because that's how you write female characters isn't it. As soon as they show strong emotions due to trauma you can label them as crazy! jfc Then she loses another dragon, large parts of her fleet and Missandei. I honestly can only feel bad for her. And all that by the hand of fucking Euron the most annoying and flat villain out there. Honestly, at this point, I support "MadQueen!Dany". Just burn everything to the ground, preferably the entire show with the exception of Brienne being knighted.

Jaime & Tyrion Not much to say here except: I love them. I just want to watch them sit around in front of a fire and drink and tease each other for the rest of my life. I just love their sibling dynamic.

Jaime & Tyrion & Bronn I don't know really... usually I love those together but that scene was just... off? I don't know. So Bronn just rode North for a 3-minute talk and then he just... fucks off? (I mean I assume he doesn't, he will be around in some form but it just irks me. Inconsistent writing and people teleporting in and out of the plot.)

Euron & Cersei Yeah, I love watching Euron creep on Cersei. Totally cool. Not like this is what she wanted to escape since the very start. Yeah, it's cool.

Jaime & Brienne Oh boy.... ok, let's start with the stuff I liked

the two of them just enjoying each other's company during the feast and just smiling at each other so free of their usual burdens. seriously Brienne has smiled so many times over the past episodes (and she melts my heart every time she does. Gwen is stunning!). In case it wasn't obvious until now: I really hate so much about season 8 but the absolute avalanche of good Brienne/Jaime content in ep 2 and 3 will be cherished forever.

Jaime's character arc is putting up a good fight at the beginning coming to Brienne's defence when Tyrion asks about her virginity

Jaime was so freaking nervous when he showed up at Brienne's door and I'm so here for that. I'm also here for Brienne doing most of the undressing. Get it, Brienne, you deserve this. No seriously though it matters to me that she pushed his hand away and then started to undress herself. It was her choice. She wasn't passively just taking what he was offering. I appreciate that in a show that has a less than stellar record with consent.

and listen I'm so bitter about so many things but I can't help but love it. I just love those two so much and I will cling to that one moment of happiness.

now the stuff I didn’t like...

right, so this is just a pet peeve of mine but I HATE the whole 'sex jumpstarted by a never-have-i-ever drinking game'-trope. I just hate it. I don't know what it is about that but I just don't like it and whenever I come across it in a fanfic it just throws me off. Now this scene itself was cute, not denying that but I just hate that THAT's the thing that sets it all off. especially since there was no need? and I should know I've read like every Brienne/Jaime fanfic published in the last two weeks. making two people hook up after a battle should be the easiest thing but no they go for this mediocre modern college AU plot? (and I'm not joking, I've read a fic like that a year or so ago...)

I really dislike the fact that they focused on Brienne's virginity because it's not in character for her to be worried about that. Apart from the fact that she is unmarried and highborn and therefore unlikely to have slept with anyone in the first place Brienne has never been ashamed of that. She is ashamed of her looks and her mannerisms and she thinks no one will ever love her or desire her. That's her insecurity. Not the fact that she's a virgin. If that were the case she could have fixed that with Tormund ages ago. Brienne yearns for acceptance (she got that now thanks to the knighting) and love (which can come with sex but is not exclusively tied to it) not some hookup. Now Tyrion doesn't know that so I can kind of understand his line of thought and her reaction I just don't like that this again is what triggers the development of Brienne's and Jaime's relationship. She's not flawed because she's a virgin and he doesn't need to "fix that". What they do need to do instead is face their feelings, share them and if that then leads to sex, all the better but it's not the point! Brienne being loved is the point and I'd have rather had an "I love you" than 10 sex scenes.

Speaking of circumstances... I would have prefered them not to be drunk but I guess I can kind of accept it. Both of them are damaged and insecure and would probably doubt the other's intentions in their sober state. Still... would have been nicer (and at least they weren't like REALLY drunk... to the point where consent would have been debatable)

I am still a bit upset that we didn't get a scene between them talking through what's going on in their heads (e.g. a discussion of what Jaime will do now and what he meant when he didn't finish "I came to Winterfell because....") but then again both Brienne and Jaime have always been more about actions than words so I'll accept it.

Did not get a scene with Brienne taking his hand off and showing him acceptance  :/

Jaime

My first response to the episode was as you can guess very negative. Jaime's been my fave for a decade or so now and it's been beyond painful seeing his character development grind to a standstill for years on end. I was willing to forgive it though. I realize they needed someone to humanise Cersei and a screen partner for Lena that isn't a zombie or a creepy necromancer and when Jaime rode North at the end of S7 I thought: Ok here we go, we're finally back on track. Should have happened years ago during the siege of Riverun but at least it's happening at all. Then we get two episodes of Jaime distancing himself from Cersei and following Brienne around like a puppy. Quality material. Now though there are two options Either D&D decided to fuck him over and just obliterate 9 years of character growth for the sake of shock OR this is a very clumsy attempt at increasing the suspense and making people question whether Jaime is bad after all. Personally, I believe (and will always believe) option 2 BECAUSE THAT'S THE FUCKING BOOK CANON. Realistically though, I'm expecting option one.

Anyway, most of Jaime's scene can be interpreted one way or another and that's the only thing giving me hope here. For example

The sex scene with Brienne could just be him letting off steam, feeling alive after a battle etc and he doesn't truly desire and love her as much as he loves Cersei. BUT Jaime has never been about sex, Jaime has always been about love. Misguided and utterly toxic love from time to time but it's always been about love. He's had women throwing themselves at him left and right and yet he's always been faithful. Always true to Cersei. Why on Earth would he stop being faithful now? I believe sex and love are 100% intertwined for Jaime and he will not have sex with anyone he does not fully love. I always believed Jaime would have to put his relationship with Cersei behind him for anything to happen between him and Brienne (which is why I was so happy they didn't immediately kiss in ep 2). Whether that's the way the show sees it is another question...

When Jaime watched Brienne sleep afterwards that again can be read as regret or him thinking of Cersei and feeling guilty, wondering what he's done.  I'd like to think instead that he's really wrestling with his own demons here (and that btw is why I would have rather had a scene with them having a heart to heart and fucking sorting this shit out once and for all). First of all: Jaime hates himself and I'm 100% sure he doesn't think he deserves Brienne. I think he feels guilty for not being able to keep his distance. I think he's aware that he's still on thin ice both with the Starks and Dany but also with Cersei. A lot of people would rather see him dead. What would that mean for Brienne's reputation? And what would happen if Cersei found out about this? So I'd like to think he's realized that he's involving her in something very dangerous that could leave her dead or emotionally damaged. (And btw why would he be planning and discussing their future with Tyrion later when he's already considering Cersei straight after sex? He would have put a stop to it because again love > sex for Jaime).

I don't know how Jaime staying in Winterfell would make any sense if he was still madly in love with Cersei. And I'm not saying this through my Brienne/Jaime googles. This is completely independent of Brienne. He knows they will go to war against Cersei. He's not part of the war council because obviously they don't trust him and maybe he also doesn't want to be directly involved in the killing of his own blood. No matter what she will do, no matter how much he will fall out of love with her she is still family, still his blood and there will always be a part of Jaime that loves his family and his blood no matter what they do (see Tywin, see Tyrion). Him jumping at the chance to kill Cersei would be out of character regardless of whether he now loves Brienne or not. In any case, Jaime knows what's coming, has no illusions there so if he's truly still bound to Cersei why not leave then. It's been days? I really can't explain this one if the writers go with option 1.

now about the scene with Sansa and Brienne. Could be that he is worried about Cersei and it's only now sinking in that she will die. Could be that Sansa's snide comment triggered something in him. Buuuuuut he does not look happy when he learns about Cersei's success. He looks worried, he looks like he didn't expect that. I'm not saying he's not shook by Sansa's comment. As I said I believe he will never truly not care about Cersei, she has made him who he was, she has been the focus of his life for so many years, you can't just forget that. But there is a difference between him losing it and doing a 180 because he still wants Cersei and him feeling conflicted because he knows what Cersei is and what needs to be done but that doesn't erase their history.

and then finally the goodbye scene. Again this could be in line with option 1, in fact it seems very much in line with it. I'm not saying it's not. But there are signs that it might not be. Like "Have you ever run away from a fight?" for example. Cause that's what he's been doing! He stayed behind in Winterfell because leaving would have meant fighting on one side or the other. He was trying to avoid that I think. And I also think he's now realised he can't. I think he didn't expect Cersei to kill a dragon or capture someone close to Dany. I think he thought it would be easier to take her down but apparently, it's not and I think he's worried now. Worried that Cersei will win and what that will mean for everyone he loves (Tyrion, Brienne). He probably decided that he's got the best chance of finishing this or at least contributing to the end. He might have realized that they do not have the luxury of keeping him out of it. Then Brienne brings her hands to his face and starts to beg and you know what he does? HE NODS TO HIMSELF. You know when Jaime usually nods to himself??? When he realizes how good, and pure, and honourable and true Brienne is. When he realizes he will have to stop her from giving too much because of that (e.g. when she tries to give Oathkeeper back. He does this little nod that says "of course she would do this" and then he has to tell her to keep it!). I honestly think this is him going "right, of course, she would do this. Of course, it's not going to be that easy. Time to bring out the big guns." He then goes on to confess all of his bad deeds and yeah again this could be option 1. Him driving home how much he loves her and not Brienne. But honestly, does it seem like that? He's not gloating, he's not admitting to this easily (the way he used to when Cat had him). To me, it looks like he has to force himself to do this because he hopes that will convince her to a) let him go and b) not follow him. I think he's trying to cut ties because he doesn't want her with him for what he's about to do. I think he's trying to make her hate him because he doesn't expect to come back and he thinks this way will be easier on her. This is Jaime's version of throwing stones at Nymeria. And as much as I try and read this any other way I just can't.  Nevertheless, he made my girl cry and boy that's testing the limits of my love for him^^

What I think should (and could) now happen: I think it would make perfect sense for Jaime to go South on his own, infiltrate the capital, get to Cersei and play some part in her demise. I can even see them dying together as suggested by (unconfirmed) leaks but I doubt it will be in the spirit of  “We came into this world together, we'll leave it together”. If they die together, I think it's more likely that he will stay with her because of the love he still feels for her even though that love is nothing compared to what it used to be. Looking at the episode I feel like this would make so much sense and most importantly it would not butcher his arc.

What I suspect will happen instead: I'm bitter and sad and based on the crap D&D have done to Jaime and others in past seasons, based on this constant need for cruelty and shocking twists I fully expect them to go with option 1. They've had this hard-on for Cersei/Jaime since forever and even though that relationship is way past its expiration date they keep shoving it into our faces. I hate this for many reasons, especially for nullifying Jaime's arc, for turning Brienne into I don't even know what, his rebound I guess. I'm willing to forgive them much but not this. I'm okay with my faves being killed off but not if everything they have become through trauma and hardship is erased within 5 minutes. And the thought that this could very well be the last scene between Brienne and Jaime and that Brienne is either right to believe that Jaime has left her or might never know his true intentions if he does switch but dies beside Cersei is too much. I want to believe guys but I'm so bitter and I don't trust them with Jaime and I do not want to get my hopes up just to be utterly disappointed. So yeah, this is what I'm preparing myself for.

So to summarize: It was not as bad as it could have been and I do think the hate is a bit much but that always happens when you get incomplete spoilers and have HOURS to freak out and hate it even before it starts but jfc they still fucked up. Character assassinations left and right, bad writing and plot holes (Euron anyone???), unnecessary drama and the usual mix of racism and misogyny. In any case, I want to end on a positive note here, so let me just point out the ONLY things I will take away from this episode:

Brienne being beyond precious!

Jaime is GONE, my friends. GONE! (seriously though through the entire thing they kept stealing glances and it's so obvious Jaime talked to her about his family. We missed so much of their relationship in season 4  :( )

Probably not what I'm supposed to be focusing on but that entire scene just screams domestic old married couple. I'm a big fan of Jaime showing weakness in front of her and Brienne accepting and helping without a second thought.

I can't get over how much THEY TOUCH each other. It's been years with nothing but his hand on hers when she was going for the knife and now they're all over each other. And the best thing about it: It's so natural. It's so new but they act as if they've been doing this for years! No hesitation, no doubt and Brienne accepting that she’s allowed to do this now, that he wants it :) (also look at thiiiiiis)

11 More Questions

First mate @letliv3 tagged me back, so here I am again with TMI. This got really long, so buckle up lovelies!

1. What is your favorite movie soundtrack and why?

I have two movie soundtracks on my phone. One is the soundtrack for Sweeney Todd (the one with Johnny Depp—is that how you spell his name? Idc) which I love because the lyrics are clever and I have been a member of many choirs in my life and we’ve sang this musical. The other is for Sucker Punch, the movie with the girl in a school girl outfit and a katana, because there are awesome covers of amazing songs, and they’re so relaxing omg. But other than those, I don’t really pay attention to movie soundtracks. But wait, hang on! When Batman Forever (I think? One of the Batmans from the 90s) came out, my brother, who was is obsessed with Batman bought it, and we used to listen to it all the time. So for nostalgia sake, that one. Kiss From a Rose is like, the greatest song (we never really listened past that track lol!)

2. What is your favorite smell and why?

I like French Lavender because it just smells nice, but the best smell is a mixture of freshly cut wood and sawdust, metal and tools, the dark green Polo cologne, fresh, crisp spring air and a hint of cigarette smoke. That’s how my dad used to smell when I was a child. He doesn’t smell like that anymore. A few years ago, when I was walking under a construction site, I got a whiff of it. From what seemed like a dream I was slammed with childhood emotions, memories of love and safety, bike riding on Saturday afternoons that ended with cherry-flavoured popsicles, laying in a pile, squished on the couch, wrapped up in blankets and surrounded by pillows on top of my dad, while my mom joked about us being as lazy as the lions we were watching on the Discovery Channel. It was a piece of nostalgia wafting over on the breeze. If I could bottle it, I would in a heartbeat.

3. If you could eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?

ONLY one? Forever? Ugh I would totally hate that food after a week. So let’s go with something healthy and maybe with a variety of ingredients so I could pick some out if I got bored. But my fav food is hot and sour soup, which doesn’t have much variety. I think actually I’d pick steak. Because you could marinate it differently, but even if you were limited to salt and pepper, you can still make it taste different enough. And different cuts taste different so I’m gonna cheat that way. I will greatly miss that soup though.

4. What teacher has most influenced you in your life?

Good or bad or memorable?

Good: my grade 7 science teacher subtly told me off for being a judgemental 12/13 year old and I still feel the shame of that sharp glance and flat retort. I’ve been much kinder since then.

Bad: my grade 11 art teacher made me feel worthless because the art I produced didn’t fit his idea of how he thought I should be interpreting his ridiculous prompts. I had to do a mixed media piece which explained “The Economic Crisis in China.” And my interpretation wasn’t “art,” but the person who got to chose their topic, chose “Global Warming,” and painted a tiny polar bear in the centre of a canvas with a white background got an A+. I’m not bitter at all, what are you talking about? I hated that he wouldn’t talk about it with me. He expected me to know what he wanted and to just do it, and that’s such a horrible thing for any teacher. In my whole life I have never disliked a teacher. I even like the teachers that everyone else calls hardasses. He and I just didn’t get along.

Memorable: My grade 11 English teacher gets an honourable mention because he was a babe and damn if I didn’t have the hugest crush on him. We used to get into conversations about the origins of words and the history of language and if that isn’t what makes the ideal man then idk what is. Talk nerdy to me 😘

5. Who was your idol as a child? Why did you admire this person?

Samus Aran, from the Metroid video game series. That was my favourite video game, my dad’s fav game, my bro, my male cousins, my uncles…everyone in the family loves that series. It was about a bounty hunter in a set of impressive, head-to-toe armour, who was just the biggest badass; a human trained by an extinct alien species to use their advanced technology and weapons. And the major “reveal” of the game? Samus is a woman. There were no female characters that were playable back then, or that weren’t just princesses that needed saving. There was no game more fun to play, that was as unanimously loved (in my small world) than Super Metroid. And I wanted to be her. We had the same colour hair (they’re changed her design now which upsets the little girl in me) and I wanted to be a badass bounty hunter that defeated space aliens and had the last being of an alien species—that was typically a deadly menace—imprint on me and think I was it’s mother. Little girls have strange dreams ok, and honestly I don’t think that dream will ever leave me. I want to cosplay as her one day, I just have to get the confidence to do so.

6. What kind of coloring books go you like? The simple and succinct ones or the intricate and detailed ones?

Eh, well I’m an artist so I much prefer to draw. But both have their ups and downs. The intricate ones can be very relaxing, as you can easily colour in pleasing patterns. But the simple ones give you more space to “freestyle” so to speak. But I love co-op colouring with children. When my cousins were super young I used to draw them pictures to colour in, and their mom has kept them all.

7. What are your go-to pair of shoes?

Slip on flats, when the weather permits it. I can take them on and off without any fuss, no ties or buckles. I have a pair now from sketchers which are plain black…something. They’re accidentally (yes, accidentally is the right word) construction shoes. They can withstand over 30k volts of electricity or something, idfk I don’t understand safety shoes. All I know is that I’m not getting electrocuted any time soon. Try me, lightening. I dare you! ⚡️⛈🌩

8. What would you name your Direwolf if you had one?

I want to say “Lucky” only because those guys don’t have much, but if we’re not being superstitious, then probably “Paul.” Because of a Family Guy joke.

9. If you could change one event in the past, what would it be? (It doesn’t have to involve you in any way.)

I…I’m really sorry, but I can’t answer this with complete honesty. My first and second responses are too personal. But my third? Hmm, if I’m being selfish, I’d close my eyes (so vague mwahaha). If not…there’s too many to chose. So many tragedies the world has faced, I can’t choose one that weighs heavier than any other, or would make the biggest impact. Because you also have to consider that some good came out of those tragedies. And if you stopped one event, then whatever tensions were being built up would just break at another time. Maybe I’d stop a natural disaster from occurring, save a bunch of lives. I’d actually love it if the Library of Alexandria still existed, or the Colossus of Rhodes wasn’t destroyed by an earthquake, or that giant statue of Athena that used to be in the Parthenon wasn’t torn down…I have a soft spot for pieces of history that were destroyed.

10. What is your favorite memory you have with your group of friends?

Not my current group, or a group really. But my fav memory with a friend is with my first roommate in university. We bought a pumpkin to carve for Halloween that turned into a ridiculous photo shoot featuring pumpkin entrails, pizza, and the stars of CSI New York on our shitty tv.

11. If you could become part of your favorite series/ movie etc. would you?

Well, first I have to pick a favourite, which is just impossible. But for the sake of the question, since I’m very involved with the Naruto fandom atm, I suppose I’ll just use that in place of “favourite.” On the one hand, it seems like a drag. Any war-torn place seems horrible in comparison to this world. But then again, magical powers are pretty sick. Would I be born into the world, or transported there? Would I have powers, or be just normal me? Would I have “foresight” based on my knowledge of the series, or be a “tabula rasa?” So many things to consider! When in the series would I be injected? Post the Fourth War, sign me up as I am now, and even as a civvy; so long as there’s some Rokudaime in my life I’ll be fine 😜. Before that? Ehhh…it depends. I’d probably miss everyone in my life over here, and with no guarantee that I’d make new bonds in the new world…ok so I’d def want my friends and family there (well, some of them lol). So maybe, depending on the situation when I got there. Which is pretty much a non-answer. Sorry!

I’m not making more questions or tagging anyone since I’ve done it once already. If you want to answer the questions I laid out in the last one, or answer these questions, just tag me! I’d love to read people’s responses. It’s all so fascinating!

[estrelatzia]

do all pls

It took a while, and I am sorry for taking so long, but I finally had the time to do it ;u;

Thank you for the ask!

Favorite video game?

I can’t choose just one, I have quite a few in my heart.

Professor Layton Series (My fave being Miracle Mask)

Pokemon (Of course! My faves being ORAS, RSE, HGSS, SUMO, B2W2)

And Animal Crossing (New Leaf and HHD)

First console you owned?

The super NES.

I come from a family of “gamers”, in a sense that my dad and most of his cousins are big video game fans.

However, when he was younger, they couldn’t afford any video game, it was too expensive and well, the income was very low, so they mostly spent their times in Arcades. So when my dad got married and finally had a budget, like one of the first things he did was buy a NES lol

He taught me how to splay super Mario when I was very young, tho I don’t even remember the first time I played it.

The first console my parents bought for me was the nintendo 64. And the first one that only belonged to me (Cuz I shared the 64 with my dad and my cousins) was the game boy colour.

A game that holds a special place in your heart?

I think Pokemon Ruby! God, I have so many good memories of this game! Like it was such a good experience for me!

I kinda was “kinnie” with May and saw myself a lot in her. And I fell in love with so many pokemon in that gen, like Torchic, Milotic, Absol, Azuril, Jirachi etc.

I got my first pokemon to lvl 100 (My blaziken). I found my first ever Shiny Pokemon (Trapinch who evolved into Flygon) and was lucky to get a lot of jackpot at the casino (Which I really sucked before lol). I also had a lot of fun times with the secret bases. And I loved the characters like Brendan, Winona and Wally. I discovered a lot of stuff on my own that up until today was memorable to me, like finding the 5% chance of fishing Feebas and trying to discover how to get Azuril (we didn’t have bulbapedia at the time and couldn’t read very well in English.) I also fell in love with the wonders of Hoenn! 

After like 200 hours I think, the games had a thing were the clock just stops moving and you can’t plant berries and such and it kinda sucks. I know it doesn’t change much in game, but when I was a kid it felt like the end of the game for me. And it kinda made me sad, but I still have the cartridge intact. I never had the heart to reset the game, I just moved my pokemon to other games (HGSS). Ruby will always be like a special treasure for me.

Favorite video game character?

This one is difficult, because I love so many lol Like I could talk about days, especially since they have a lot of characters in pokemon.

But I guess I will spare the details and go straight to a video game character that I appreciate and love a lot: Professor Layton.

That man is just such good guy? Like he is charismatic, fancy, so kind and so smart! It is fun playing along with him as a main character! And it’s super funny considering that the plots get so weird sometimes, that someone as logical as him can always figure out what is going on before everyone lol

He is just such a nice guy that you would like to meet you know? Also his voice is so calm and nice, it’s soothing!

He is voiced in Japanese by  Yo Oizumi (Which I would recommend everyone to give a listen to! You won’t regret! It’s so soothing and beautiful!) And Christopher Robin Miller in English!

Least favorite video game character?

I don’t have a character that I dislike with a big passion, but since I am given the opportunity I need to talk about one that annoyed me and I will probably put lot of people in a bad mood….please don’t take it personal, it’s just my opinion ;;

But for me, Zin/nia in ORAS made my experience with the post game some much more annoying!

Like I already have kinda a hate-love relationship with Post game ORAS (The delta episode). I like that they added it to the game and gave more story, I adored the moment you go to space and fight Deoxys. All this was so wonderful. I dislike however how you are like “Place A, fight someone. Ok now go to place B. Fight someone again”. It’s really annoying…and the fact that Zinnia’s character was rushed(?) into the story made it more annoying to me. Like we have some details of her story but not a whole lot. We can probably connect the dots…but still?? It felt weird to me. I thought there would be more to it, but it didn’t. And because of that it made the whole experience annoying and almost frustrating, because we don’t know a whole lot of what’s going on, but Zinnia doesn’t explain either. She is just angry and in a rush, and instead of just explaining what is happening, she goes around and steal stuff and punch people??? And when Steven the champion tries to offer some help, she is just rude?? which honestly I don’t care if she hates him, but logically if you want someone to listen and help you, why are you just being horrible to everyone?? And all that alternate universe will be destroyed…is like ok…I get what you mean but HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT FOR SURE??? How is anyone supposed to know that?? I just…idk it frustrated me. And I thought they would one day explain, but it has been like 5 years? and GameFreak maybe forgot about it, so it’s still a bitter memory to me. I know may love her and it’s ok, but to me she came off as unsympathetic at the time.

Favorite genre?

I would say RPG, but I haven’t complete any RPG in years, except for Pokemon. So I guess just relaxing games? Like Animal Crossing? Or games you can explore? Because one of the thing I love the most about games is exploring the vast worlds and interesting cities.  Idk, I also like puzzle games a lot lol

Video game character you’ve had a crush on?

Well when I was a young kid, I had a crush on Silver and Bugsy lol But now I don’t think I have crushes on any characters to be honest. I kinda lost having crushes on characters, but I am not sure why.

I guess if I have to choose, I would say Henry Ledore from Professor Layton: Miracle Mask, because I really liked that character and his personality. And it’s the closest that I have to a character crush, even though it is barely one lol

First video game you remember playing?

Super Mario for the SNES. But my memories are kinda hazy, so the one I remember the most is playing Diddy Kong Racing lol.

Age you started gaming?

I was super young, I can’t really remember when I played a video game for the first time, but I really started being interested in games around 7-ish. When I started playing Pokemon and discover other video games with my cousins.

Hardest video game you’ve played?

Listen…I don’t have the patience to play hard games…when it gets tough I give up…If I have the choice I would choose the easier mode…so I can’t even answer this question, because I would be saying a very easy game and people will be laughing at me and saying I am a fake gamer or something.

Video game you’ve spent the most time on?

Tomodachi Life (Don’t judge, I love it!)

Animal Crossing New Leaf

Pokemon Alpha Sapphire

Most embarrassing gaming moment?

When I was a kid I got stuck playing Golden Sun at the Mercury Lighthouse. It was early in the dungeon, like right after you get Mia, there was a statue you had to do Ply on, and I never got it. So instead I wondered for hours in the few accessible places in the world and did almost everything else I could. when I discovered, I cried almost of joy, my characters were so over-level at that point lol

I tried to play Pokemon competitive mode a few years ago because everyone was talking about it and lost almost immediately, I had no regrets because I dislike competitive modes, so it just proved that it wasn’t for me, but at the same time, it was darn embarrassing.

My first ever game of Kingdom Hearts was 358/2 Days. My experience with KH so far was only KHI that my cousin had. So I never really played it or knew the story, I just knew there were Disney characters and Mickey was apparently a King??? But I just wondered around Traverse Town (thus why I guess that town is so nostalgic to me), I wanted to explore like Atlantica because Ariel was there, but my cousin didn’t let me because it sucked (tho to be fair, he was right, but I didn’t know that!). Fast forward to Days, I was excited to finally start my own adventure and rapidly got confused. Like where was Mickey? My companions Donald and Goofy? Why was everyone talking about nobodies?? (Which for the longest time I thought meant like a insult instead of actually a real thing in the games lol). And to me the game tutorial felt soooo long. I just wanted to explore, and I lost patience so rapidly. Like if you would ask me, I would say that I spent almost 100 days on that game, but apparently I gave up so early, right before going to the first Disney World (one day before according to my brother lol…). I got roasted by my bro and cousins.

Scariest video game you’ve played?

I also don’t do scary stuff lol ;u; I get scary pretty easily! Like I got scared from playing limbo and couldn’t sleep well that night (I am not kidding lol)

Most memorable gaming moment?

Getting my Shiny Trapinch, finding Feebas and hatching my first Azuril in Ruby!

Also when me and my cousin were exploring the Silver islands (? myabe not the proper name, but I am too lazy to search) in Pokemon Silver, we found Lugia!! And It was super exciting for us! We were super happy for the rest of the day!

Video game character you wish you could meet in real life?

I guess Professor Layton, Aqua from KH and Maya Fey from the Ace Attorney games (She is so funny!).

PC, Xbox, Playstation, or Nintendo?

Almost only Nintendo.

Gaming company you’re most loyal to?

Nintendo, mostly because they make the games I am the most interested in, like Pokemon, AC, Mario, etc.

If you could only play one video game for the rest of your life, which would you choose?

I guess Pokemon, because I can’t imagine leaving without pokemon. But honestly, I can’t just live with ONE game, I would get bored eventually.

Do you use strategy guides?

I used when I was a kid. Now I just use references online when I need it.

How often do you use cheats?

If it’s a in-game glitch, I love trying it. If it’s a cheat that you need to use like a 3rd party, then I never use it.

The only time I cheated was when I was playing DPP, I really wanted to capture Creselia and other event legendary (which I never got, because I live in an obscure town and Nintendo didn’t even give events close to us here so… :) ). I made myself had like 100 master ball in the game, I was just so tired of chasing after Creselia. And honestly I don’t regret doing it. The only reason I don,t use 3rd party cheats is just because I don,t like to use it in the game, I’m paranoid and afraid I will loose my file or something lol

Competitive or single player?

Single player, definitely.

Video game character you want to/have cosplayed?

At a con I went, there was someone dressed like Donk City! Peach. I kinda want to try this but maybe a Roselia or Daisy version!

The other I want to try is KH3 Kairi, just because I adore her outfit. But I feel like it would be difficult and kidna not comfortable to wear, so I am pretty sure I will never lol

Ever go to a video game convention?

No never. It is quite far from where I live. But someday I would like to go.

Hardest boss fight you’ve been in?

I don’t remember honestly.

Video game you wish you could burn from your memory?

Time Hollow. It was kinda a boring game.

The other would be Sims…because I get really distracted and addicted to it to the point I don’t do much else when playing with it and I don,t like being like this since I feel like I am wasting my free time when I play for too long.

Favorite gaming series?

Pokemon

Professor Layton

Animal Crossing

Kingdom Hearts (Even though, I didn’t even played half of the games...)

Do you skip tutorials, or find them useful?

I try to listen when I am not familiar with a game, but I most likely get bored and eventually skip…

Best online gaming experience?

I don’t play online.

Worst online gaming experience?

I don’t play online.

Why do you game?

I game cuz I like gaming. lol It is just a nice hobby and a nice way to relax honestly.
