Yeah yeah we all talk about Alcina and how much she loves her daughters (still super valid) but we are forgetting the og loving mom Miranda herself!!

Her daughter died in the Spanish Flu and from there on until 2021 the woman’s love to her daughter didn’t wane!!! She’s still very loving of her child and despite all the time that passed she became immortal just so that she can bring her child back no matter what.

I’m sorry but moving on who??? Miranda doesn’t comprehend that concept and this is why I believe she’s super loving to the point where she couldn’t accept her daughter’s death

"Leading Questions" 800 words, fluff, kidfic

Frieren does her best at raising Hagel, but there are things a child wants that never seem to occur to her.

Himmel holds this against her no more than he blames her for her lack of understanding of his desire for her or his occasional need for reassurance, but Hagel is too young to have learned yet how his mother's mind works, or to realize that her strange reticence on matters of the heart doesn't signal a lack of love but a lack of understanding.

Sometimes he needs a little bit of guidance.

Himmel senses when he hears sniffling and cracks open the door to Hagel's bedroom that this might be the moment for it.

"Hagel?" he asks softly. He doesn't open the door any further; Hagel, like his mother, jealously guards his privacy. "Are you all right?"

Hagel is quiet for a moment - even the sniffling stops - and then Himmel hears the plop of little feet hitting the floor. When one is admitted into Hagel's bedroom, it is always in this fashion. He opens the door, and his pudgy tear-stained face looks up at Himmel with something between defensiveness and hope.

He kneels to meet Hagel's eyes, brushes a tear from Hagel's cheek with his thumb, and only then says, "what happened, bud?"

Hagel, silent, sniffles, and as he lowers his face, his ears flatten against his head. Frieren's never do that; it came as a surprise, the way Hagel speaks with his ears. Sometimes it strikes Himmel as sweet. Others it makes the picture even sadder.

They've had him for ten years now, and a fully-human child of his age would be able to read and climb trees and hold a halfway-grown-up conversation, but he's still so little, his face still so pudgy and innocent, and-

"Mama doesn't love me."

"What?"

He looks up at Himmel and briefly looks irritated that he isn't understanding. "Mama doesn't love me."

"Wh…why would you think that, Hagel?"

His lower lip protrudes a little and it puffs up his cheeks. "She doesn't."

"Bud-"

"She doesn't!"

"Yes she does, Hagel."

"But she never says it back!"

Oh.

He's gotten so used to that, telling Frieren that he loves her without expecting the typical response, that it would never have occurred to Himmel that the lack of an I love you too might give his son unhappy ideas. But, then, of course it does. Any child whose mother never returned those words would think what he does.

"I'm sorry, bud," he says gently, stroking Hagel's cheek with his thumb. "But I promise your mama loves you."

"But…but…"

"She just thinks a little different than you and me," he says. "So I bet she just doesn't realize that when people say 'I love you,' they want her to say it back."

Hagel's forehead creases with irritation, but he doesn't say anything.

"How 'bout this?" Himmel asks. "Next time you wanna tell her that, you should ask, 'do you love me too'? And I bet you anything she'll tell you she does."

Hagel frowns. "Mmph."

"Really. I promise."

"You promise?"

Himmel smiles. "She doesn't say it back to me, either," he tells Hagel, "but I know she loves me."

"But-"

"She does love us," he says again. "She's just the kind of person where sometimes gotta look really close to see it."

He could let it make him angry, the thought of Frieren nodding silently at their son's declaration because she never knows what to do with expressions of love. It almost does. But he has practice seeing things from her side now, and as much as the image twists his heart like a wrung-out dishrag, he knows all too well that there's no lack of love in her lack of a response.

It's no different, really, than her blank expression at his caresses when they're supposed to spark understanding. It is no more a rejection. She simply needs prompting. Frieren is a difficult woman to love, sometimes, but it is not - as he once suspected - because she's cold, or because she doesn't love them.

The younger Hagel is when he realizes that all Frieren needs is a little nudge, the more clearly he'll see that.

So he's eavesdropping (only a little) when he hears Hagel's footsteps in the hall a while later, and when the bedroom door opens and Frieren greets him. He hears her ask if he's been crying and worry at the reason, and the springs of the mattress creak when he climbs up to sit with her.

"Mama," he hears Hagel ask, "do you love me back?"

And he can't remember the last time the rush of affection he gets when he thinks of his son felt so strong.

Frieren is quiet for a long moment, then, softly:

"Of course I do."

ChellDOS AU but it’s the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice.

Except no doubt: GLaDOS is Orpheus.

(I love fics where she goes above and beyond to bring Chell’s back from the dead, or to keep her from dying and i like even more the idea that Chell doesn’t want or she fails to do so)

She would look behind her before they’re outside 100% but in the most tragic way like Chell tripped and she tried to grab her.

Also like canon GLaDOS needs Chell so bad. And she goes insane alone.

Ohohoh and that one version where Orpheus doesn’t know if Eurydice is really following him! Like GLaDOS keeps filling the void and talking and Chell doesn’t answer so she doesn’t know if it’s normal or if Chell isn’t behind her. So she can’t look and is she really bringing her back (Schrodinger Cat!!!)

She would be too impatient and look when she’s the only one out too.

On the one hand, I love divorced Jack & Janet Drake where Jack is per canon and so for contrast Janet is supportive of Tim being Robin.

On the other hand, I want an AU where Janet lived instead of Jack, and she's more empathetic and observant than Jack, but even busier so we can still have Tim running around as Robin for several years without being caught--

And when Janet does find out she storms Wayne Manor like Jack did in canon and actually fucking shoots Bruce.

Hello people of Harringrove nation… I come bearing my transmasc art for the third day in a row. Enjoy my thoughts on what tattoos I think they’d get after top-surgery! Also yeag I used the same torso for all of them what about it. And I gave them all different top surgery scars

First off, Billy. I thought of two alternate tats he could get- one because it looks kickass and the other for sentimental purposes.

First off is my extremely rough approximation of where Mr. Hargrove’s scars would land. Scorpions because funny song and sun because longing for California, and finding warmth in your own heart.

The second tattoo that I spent far too much time on- Actually a coverup for Starcourt. I chose Gardenias, dandelions and purple hydrangeas for no particular reason. :^) Also because Billy’s mother embroidered flowers onto his shirts. Or at least I think that’s why he has flowers on his shirts in his childhood flashbacks…

Next, Steve’s tattoos. Yeah I’m not gonna lie I gave him deq. Or tribal Kurdish tattoos. Plan on getting something similar one day. This was purely because it looks cool. And it’s nice to think of

And finally, bonus Eddie. Haha. Heehee. Hoho. I wonder what his tats resemble. And yes I trojan horsed Harringroveson into this

That’s all, folks.

"Even my mum seemed to sense there was something different about me. I remember vividly one night, apropos of nothing in particular, my mother confided in me that she once she once had a transvestite friend named Greta. She didn't go into detail, simply explaining to me that Greta was a man who dressed as a woman, and had sex with men - as a woman. [...] Maybe mum saw my interest in gender-bending, and suspected she had a homosexual son, and that was just her way of letting me know that not only did she understand, but she accepted me."
