Cobra Kai Masterlist

Miguel: when you was sick Miguel would act like you couldn't do anything and you was as fragile as a flower so you basically wasn't allowed to get out of your bed unless you needed the toilet. He would get his mum to make you some soup and he would watch your favourite movies with you.

Eli/hawk: He would be super soft with you and buy you all your favourite things at the store which made you super happy , when you was sick he would hold your hair back for you.

Demetri:When you told Demetri you was sick he would absolutely not go near you and he was really sorry because he wanted to take care of you but he didn't wanna get sick and when you threw up he would gag and run away but he would make up for it after by giving you all his attention and affection.

Robby: He would have to force you to take your medicine and hold you down because you absolutely hated it (it's disgusting) ,when you fell asleep he would put on something he liked and would braid your hair for you.

Young Daniel Larusso:He wouldn't stop cuddling you no matter how many times you told him he'd get sick ,would get mr miyagi to make you some soup and would read to you until you fell asleep then he would eventually fall asleep to.

Young Johnny Lawrence: He would cancel all his plans and keep asking if you was okay and when you threw up he would hold back your hair but would be fake gagging to , when you fell asleep he would play with your hair and go to the store to buy your f/choc and f/snac which made you super happy and he felt super proud of himself.

“How do you like it, huh?” Is heartbreaking sure but genuinely, it’s kinda what I’ve been waiting for.

I love that Demetri accepts Eli back immediately. I think at the time it was what was needed for both of them. But at the same time Hawk put Demetri through a lot and we never see them actually discuss that aspect of their relationship. Yes, we can assume they talked about it off screen but that moment from Demetri makes it clear they didn’t.

Yes it was said in a moment of heated anger and I don’t think that Demetri would have ever said that otherwise but it at least shows that he still is dealing with that. That he has some residual anger that he hasn’t let himself really feel because he wanted to be a good friend.

I’m all about the fluff of their relationship (i mean look at the fanfics i wrote about them lmao. It’s my fave) but I really wanted more angst between them especially in s4. I hope that even if they don’t go the route of really diving into that aspect, that they continue to acknowledge it. Acknowledge that Demetri absolutely can be holding onto that anger.

I think this disagreement between them could absolutely be a catalyst to a genuine discussion surrounding what Hawk did to Demetri. I want, NEED, it. Because Demetri got Eli back sure, but now he has to deal with the fact that he might lose him again. Demetri probably is thinking along the lines of “He’s ditched me for something else before, what’s stopping him from doing it again” At least in my perspective. That yeah Eli can promise they won’t lose what they’ve got but again, it’s happened before. And that’s so INTERESTING.

Now, whether the show actually goes that route is an entirely different subject. All I have is speculation and hope.

Broken pt 1

Robby keene x reader

Intro

Read on watpadd

The rain fell from the dark clouds with speed as the puddles on the ground swallowed the streets. Trees danced in the wind and people hurried to cover inside their homes. The city felt alive yet eerily quiet. Cars raced through the streets, tires hissing against the wet asphalt, leaving behind a trail of splashes. Voices, usually filled with laughter and chatter, faded into a distant murmur, almost as though they had been erased by the storm. Everyone appeared to be in a rush to return home, as the warmth and comfort of their interiors beckoned amidst the turmoil of nature's fury.

Somewhere in the distance, a family of four made their way out of the car. It was a beat down 2002 Honda that had seen more than most people in their lives as it drove from one place to another. An older looking woman opened up the trunk as two small boys hurried to stand under a tree. She smiled to herself as one of them jumped into a puddle with giggles. At least they didn't have to worry about how they were going to live the next day. She liked to keep it like that.

A girl walked up to her mother. Her tired eyes told more than her mouth as she helped carry out the bags. Hanging two around her shoulder and one in each hand, she walked up her brothers with a small smile. "Can you both carry these bags, then I pick two others." she said as you put out the smallest bags for the children to grab. The nod as she walks back to the car. The rain already drenched her clothes as her hair stuck to her face. 'I thought LA was suppose to be warm' she muttered to herself.

Grabbing the last two bags, she closed the trunk of the car and followed her family towards their new apartment. As she made her way up the stairs she heard a door open somewhere in the building. Looking down, a boy around her age walked outside his apartment to knock on another door. As if he knew she was looking he looked up to her with his brown eyes and waved with a smile. Before Lauren could do it back, the boy walked inside and she finished the walk up the stairs.

Putting the bags down to take the key from her pocket, the older woman opened up the door to the apartment, "Welcome to your new home," she tried to deliver the sentence with hope and excitement, but deep down she knows this isn't how life should have turned out. The changes that happened in the last three years hung above their heads in a reminder of what life could have been. They were together, and perhaps that was enough to start anew, to create memories that would someday overshadow the storms they had weathered.

Walking inside her new home, Lauren took a look around the place. It was a small apartment and it looked like its best days were over. With limited square footage, the kitchen, dining area, and living room were all crammed together in one compact space, making it feel even more cramped. The three tiny bedrooms were located in the back, next to each other, each barely large enough for a bed and a dresser. The two boys would share the biggest one, hoping they weren't on each other's nerves too much.

Her mother put the bags on the table with a sigh. Rubbing her sore arms and shoulders, she turned towards the door, saying, "I will leave you to unpack your stuff. I am going to look around to find a store to grab some food for us to eat."

Lauren was quick to disagree as she grabbed her wallet and phone, "Mom, please let me do that. I don't want you to go out alone in this weather."

She patted her daughter on the back with a sweet smile, "Honey that is sweet, but don't worry. I can manage it."

"You already drove us here. Just rest. I get some food." Lauren walked her mother over to the couch so she could sit down. She then turned to her brothers, her voice steady as she said, "Liam, Lucas. Make sure to look out for Mom while I'm gone, alright? I won't be long." They nodded in response, each settling down next to their mother on the couch, ready to keep her company.

"Hey, can you grab a bag of those red candy bites if they have them?" Liam chimed in, looking hopefully at his sister. Lauren smiled, giving a nod before stepping outside the apartment. As she stepped through the doorway, the cold wind slapped against her face, sending a shiver down her spine. She pulled her jacket closer around her, feeling vulnerable to the chill as she made her way down the stairs.

She put her hands in her pockets. It was a school holiday, meaning she didn't directly have to face too many people. Lauren had already fixed two jobs to work these past couple weeks. She needed to help her mom pay for everything. Money was thigh and she didn't want her mother to feel worse if she couldn't buy something.

Lauren was pulled out of her thoughts by a voice behind her. She jumped at the sudden contact on her arm as she looked behind her, "Sorry, I didn't want to scare you." the boy from before said as he pulled his hands back.

"Don't worry about it," Lauren replied, her heart still beating a little faster from the surprise. She took a good look at him; he had warm brown eyes, short dark hair that was slightly tousled, and a genuinely kind smile that seemed to light up his face. He looked awfully familiar, but she couldn't place it.

He extended his hand, introducing himself. "I'm Miguel. I live in that apartment." Lauren followed his gaze, realizing he was referencing a nearby building. "You're new here?"

"Yeah, I just moved here." she tried to make her answer short as she spoke. She wasn't going to tell a complete stranger everything right here in the middle of the rain. "Do you know where I could find a store?"

"The closest is by the mall. It is just a couple of blocks." he explained the route to her. Lauren thanked him before saying goodbye as she made her way towards the mall. "Welcome to the valley," he called out from behind her as she continued on her path, the sound of his voice fading into the rhythmic patter of raindrops against the pavement.

It fell like ages as she made her way through the rain. A couple of blocks were nothing if she could actually drive a car, or even a bike. Lights flickered inside homes as people looked at her from inside their cars.

After some time she finally made it inside the store. She greeted the man with a small smile before walking through the aisle. There was only one other person and it felt like a dead place. Lauren wouldn't be surprised if she didn't make it out. To her luck the man stayed on the other side of the store. She didn't know if it was reassuring he wore a suit to a place like this or not.

As Lauren filled her basket with a few items, she opted for a box of cheap pasta, a loaf of stale-looking bread, and two bottles of water. They would have to make do for now. She walked over to the candy aisle, keeping an eye out for the red candy bites her brother had requested, happily grabbing a bag along with some gum for herself. The girl walked over to the register, as her eyes landed on a beer bottle. She really could use that.

She placed her items on the counter, watching as the cashier-a middle-aged man -began to type everything into his beaten computer. After a moment, he looked up and announced, "Your total is $16.85." Lauren's eyes widened in disbelief. She had barely enough cash to cover a single meal, let alone this total.

She cursed as she counted the money, she missed a couple bucks. Looking through the stuff she groaned, "I'll have to put back the gum, rice, and the beer." The cashier nodded, unfazed, as he deleted the items from the computer. She puts the money on the counter and puts the stuff in her bag.

The man in the suit gently stopped her as she finished packing her items. "Let me cover that for you," he offered with a smile.

She turned to him and replied, "Oh, that's really not necessary. I can't do anything in return, so please don't worry about it." She didn't want to impose or feel beholden to a stranger who was merely trying to be kind.

He stepped forward, pulling out his wallet. "I don't need anything. Just take it." he held out the stuff for her to grab.

Lauren thought about it. Why say no to free stuff, "Alright, thanks." the man smiles with a nod as he went to continue looking through the store.

As she walked outside the store, her eyes locked with the building next to it. A big snake was hanging above the door with the letters, 'Cobra Kai Karate'. Something in her brain clicked as she sighs. That is where the boy is from. He won a karate tournament a couple days back.

At that moment she heard a bang coming from the dojo, followed by a lot of groans. Lauren looked back at the building and saw some smoke forming through the glass door. She shrugged, not her problem, and went to walk back home.

Deleted scene where Miguel and Demetri kiss with tongue when—

Every song reminds me of them actually

[starglaee]

So the writing and overall timeline of season 6 part 1 is weird to say the least, but there’s one plot point that stuck out to me. If this is the choice the writer’s intended, then great because it makes the drama a lot more dramatic if addressed. And if it wasn’t intended then the writing was kinda stupid and still unintentionally good.

So Eli didn’t apply for MIT early action like Demetri, which significantly lowers his chances of acceptance should he apply later on, as addressed by Demetri.

But MIT’s early action “isn’t single-choice, binding, or anything like that.” This is verbatim from the admissions website. So then why would Eli not take the chance of MIT if he’s so undecided?

Or is it that he’s 100% decided he doesn’t want to go to MIT and the “I’ll apply later” is another lie?

The ANGST!

But of course, if the writer’s room didn’t know this then that’s on them because I got this from one Google search.

Anyway I’m tired and feel smart, and this thought has been weighing on me for a while. So. The more you know.

[purplerakath]

MiyagiDo Karate and Protagonist Morality

So when I watched the first two seasons this bothered me and then last weekend I watched everything else (thus far)... and this still bothered me. So here we are.

Spoilers for all five released seasons of Cobra Kai (although I'll mainly be talking about Demetri, Sam, Danny, and Hawk).

Before I get started...

As much as I'm criticizing the writing of these characters, I don't think the characters are bad, or hate the show. I just think more could be done with them, or in the case of Sam they could have started the ball rolling sooner and she could be a better character than she is.

Except Demetri, they really screwed the pooch on his writing.

Protagonist Morality

So I guess I should explain this term. Protagonist morality is where a show doesn't question the behavior of it's protagonists, assuming that whatever action they've taken is morally correct (for the setting). In a video game, you know all those unguarded chests full of stuff for you. The ones all across the countryside and in towns and often people's houses? The ones you can loot freely and nobody cares or is concerned with all the robbery you're doing?

That's protagonist morality. If the game labels you a thief and you get run out of public spaces for your actions, then the game is labeling your actions as maybe less than a paragon of virtue, and giving you reason to think about it. (Then you do it anyway because it's really nice loot.)

So what about the ACTUAL protagonists?

Johnny, Miguel, and Robby are questioned and judged by the narrative constantly. They generally do things right for them, but not universally seen as correct. And generally the narrative is about them moving forward and making less questionable calls.

The whole point of the start of S2 is that Johnny realizes "No Mercy" is a bad motto, because it just gets people hurt, and changes his teachings to match this bit of character growth. Characters backslide, Johnny and Robby both crash spectacularly at the start of Season 3. Each needs to dig themselves out of the hole their in all through Season 3 (Johnny) and 5 (Robby).

So the show never treats them as not needing growth, as the show is all about their growth.

Daniel

Danny is a hyper-judgmental asshole due to unresolved trauma from his youth and it's a problem. But also the show would be a lot less interesting if he worked through all of this in a timely fashion. Primarily the issue is his reaction to "Cobra Kai" just being back at all, and how he never once gets pushed to question if Cobra Kai in Johnny's hands changed.

Some of this is miscommunication, which is the cornerstone of the Unresolved sexual Karate Tension with Johnny. But his absolute refusal to see good in Cobra Kai had a direct hand in breaking up Sam and Miguel in Season 1 and Danny... came out of it believing he was right.

And when he goes out of his way to try and destroy the S1-2 era of Cobra Kai, the narrative never once actively punishes him for his prejudice. He's also never forced to face why he's like this. It's kind of shit but very much a plot lodestone.

Sam

Like her father, Sam often rushes to a moral judgement on bad info and never goes back. Even if she's wrong. So much of her Season 1 behavior is swept under a rug so that other characters (Kyler, Yaz, Miguel) can be her personal villain. And the worst being Season 2 with Tory.

Sam rushed to 'all Cobras are evil' while in a plot trying to fix her friendship with her best friend, she instigated things with Tory, and blamed Tory for all of it without having to think about why she's following her father so readily. Of course, with the end of Season 2 it didn't matter what her behavior was prior, she had every justification to treat Tory as her own personal satan.

Fortunately for me, and everyone else who likes Sam, most of the later seasons focus real hard on having her grow as a person. Maybe not facing all of her personal failings, but she does grow past them in respectable ways. And while her behavior toward Tory is... still bad, Tory is her personal anxiety attack she's allowed it now. (Unlike someone else.)

She also unpacks some of the prejudice she learned from her dad. Sneaking off behind his back to learn Eagle Fang and figure out before Father Dearest that balance is better than pigheaded arrogance of your own greatness. Leading to the Season 4 finale and her mixed styles.

Demetri Hawk

Before I rant about Demetri, I need to explain why Hawk's narrative, regardless of his failures, is better. Eli starts the show with a clearly defined failing (confidence and courage), focuses hard on overcoming it (through Cobra Kai Karate), and turns him into someone new.

That new person is a loud abrasive asshole, but it's a growth arc.

When Hawk behaves badly, it's treated as a start of darkness. As he grows to love having the power his weaker nerdy self lacked. His acts of vengeance make sense as the flexing of power he's never had before. To the point he becomes the sort of bully he feared. His reactions are all overreactions and that's good writing. You understand why he beats Kyler's flunky to a bloody pulp, it's cathartic but also framed as an act of pure violence and destruction. He needs to live in his anger, his violence, listening to the whispers Kreese offers.

Season 3 is Hawk struggling to choose between good and evil, and in the end he chooses good. Leading him on the path toward balance and being better than either side of him before. Honestly of every character in the show his path is the best defined.

Now Demetri

Demetri is a anxious pessimistic leech. He feels he'll fail before he starts, and therefore doesn't try. He rides the coattails of his friends as they become cool and popular and Hawk was right to call him out. But rather than investigate that, he becomes the target of Hawk's new villain arc, and rushes to the arms of MiyagoDo.

Where he proceeds to never actually face who he was, and just... get to be a cool martial artist with a hot girlfriend as the show sweeps his negative traits under a rug and never touches them.

The narrative never confronts how 'it's fine for me to reap the benefits of your hard work' (start of season 2) or 'I can humiliate my best friend by spilling all his secrets then hide behind my badass martial artist friends' (late season 2) were bad calls, because at the end of the season he just... gets to beat up Hawk to establish the full defeat of Johnny's Cobra Kai.

Directly into Season 3 where he's just as aggressive and antagonistic as Sam is, while neither is treated as being 'over the line' by the narrative. Which is all before Hawk breaks Demetri's arm, meaning he doesn't have the extant trauma reason Sam has.

By Season 5 Demetri is a pretty cool person, but as there's no actual focus on how he got there, it feels cheap. Which really sucks.

What I'd Write-

I don't want to rewrite the whole show, and that makes Danny hard to fix. As so much of him is that paranoia of Cobra Kai. Like- best I could ask for is him going to therapy and trying to work past it (and just being bad at it).

Sam the easy answer is Aisha not forgiving her (at least during S1-2). Where Sam tries to get Aisha back, but every time she either says something about Cobra Kai, or Miguel, or Tory and Aisha points out Sam hasn't given any of them a fair shot, and that Sam has no room to talk after dating Kyler and being Yaz's friend.

Bonus points if Sam also gets taken to task for her going after Tory when Tory was working. Because Amanda already got Tory fired once, but she felt bad about it.

Demetri has a similar route of 'best friend does not forget.' A simple 'why should I ever trust you again' after Moon's party would go a long way to rub Demetri's face in what he did, how he was as bad as everyone who made fun of Hawk's lip at school. How Demetri, for one brief moment, was worse than Kyler.

I want all the characters to either get the kind of care in how they change direction that Miguel has, and failing that being absolutely perfect like Devon (the only person to join Silver's Cobra Kai and not turn evil).

[gemini-sensei]

It's Star Wars Day!

And I guarantee Demetri celebrates in the nerdiest way possible, every year. He spends the day dressed up as a character wherever he can get away with it. He makes inspired snacks the night before to take with him to training and eats his own Star Wars themed meals. He gives all of his friends little gifts, be it lightsaber key chains that actually light up or character stickers.

(If Hawk ever convinces him to get a tattoo, you better believe it's a Star Wars one.)

Don't get me started on how he pulls his kids into later in life. He raises his kids on Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, basically all the stuff he loved growing up. Star Wars day comes around and their lunch boxes a have Death Star mini pizzas and cucumber Yodas. His baby is dressed up for the occasion, too. No doubt.

If it's a weekend, movie marathon! Younger Demetri definitely stayed up late to watch as many movies as he could, eventually falling asleep in the middle of whichever one he made it to (and as little kid his mom would stay up and watch with him, then carry him to bed when he passed out 🥺). Sleepovers with Eli where all they did was watch the movies and later on the shows (these two definitely obsessed over the Clone Wars, watched it religiously). Older, parent Demetri who gets all the snacks together and him and his kids and wife/partner (Reader or Eli or both 👀) pile into the big blanket fort they made on the floor to be extra cozy to watch the movies. Family tradition right there.

I have a migraine but this idea was swirling around in my head. So I had to post it before it was too late.

Prompt: Amulet

Pairing: Hawkmetri

Whoops!!! My hand slipped and I wrote an unofficial sequel to this! Props to @idontknowkaratebutiknowcrazy for coming up with a headcanon that I will now be keeping forever <3 <3 <3

***

Halfway through the end-of-the-night senior prom slow dance (which they’re only doing ironically), Eli spots something shiny inside Demetri’s suit.

He reaches in, retrieving a silver pendant. “The necromancer amulet?!”

“High time I wore it to another school dance.” Demetri shrugs. “Also might need to raise the dead if another karate fight breaks out.”

“You kept my dumbass present?” Eli laughs.

“Yeah.” Demetri blushes. “I…was also gonna fake-propose with it on the motorbike and ask you out properly, but now that I think about it, it sounds stu—”

Demetri doesn’t finish. Eli yanks the amulet, crashing their mouths together.
