A Glisten and Twisted Glisten redesign! by yours truly Voice claim idea: James from Pokemon?????

○ I think Glisten would be pan, just cause he gives the vibes he just doesn't mind. If someone loves him, that's plenty enough reason to fulfil their wishes of being with him! ○ Gaslight Gatekeep Girlboss - "...I saw you almost walk into a wall.” "Tch.. you're seeing things.“ - "It's simple really! I've got a morning routine." "What's the morning routine?" "...A secret." - And just look at him, he's so girlboss <3 ○ He likes being the centre of attention, and thinks he's a lot better than everyone else. He does know he's not perfect, and is upset by that, but he's the closest to perfection than anyone else!! So he's content. (in his opinion) ○ I don't ship him with anyone in particular? He'd be so, so silly in a ship, but I've looked at all the pairings and nothing's clicking :( ○ All dialogue between him and Rodger on the wiki seem like sibling bickering! I didn't make them full brothers because they look a little too not-alike. For some backup, he seems like a good uncle to Toodles in the dialogue too! ○ And poor, poor little guy has a big fear of being forgotten or abandoned by anyone and everyone. He's not one for alone time.

○ Twisted Glisten is in a lot of constant pain - he's still sentient, so he's not having a good time. ○ The corset around his waist, normally at a normal, healthy (enough) tightness, has been pulled to strangle him and hide his broken torso. He has the same torso as his original with all the ichor and nasty ouch stuff. He also tends to hide his face in his hands, now hating when people look at him. ○ He wants other toons to stay with him despite the hatred of being seen, and so he doesn't actively seek out attention like he used to. If someone willingly comes up to him, it means they don't find him disgusting, so he lets them stay and asks them to do just that. ○ Many things can cause a breakdown for him. Whether it be someone he trusted, like a toon by his side, at risk of leaving him forever, or just general disgusted stares at him. His mental state is worse than his physical one.

I tried my best to make him look a lot less 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓀𝓎, and I think I succeeded? He looks like he'd flirt sometimes, but not shift lock behind you in a round, yk? Anyways, this was all on one canvas that took about 10 hours (holy moly), and I hope to do everyone in the cast soon! Anyways, it's 2am, goodnight ✨

Update: Above is a lazily updated ver, and also, I ship jewellery box now, SO BITCHES!!!! YAY!!! congratulations on getting bitches glisten u deserve it

Long caption warning 💀

Prev

PLEASE. Ignore my spelling errors I’m so tired.

*cracks knuckles* Alright, some people on Instagram asked for this and so now I will share. (Angst warning pssshhh)

My timeline for my F!Donnie (starting just before CJ was introduced):

- Over the years, Donnie would join in battles, mostly providing long range defense, all the while blasting his tunes on full blast

- But that changed when he got Krang’d right to his head, Mikey was able to remove the infection, but this caused Don’s eyesight to become quite poor (and for him to not trust himself in combat afterwards.)

- After that incident, Donnie became absolutely fascinated with Krang tech and biology, subconsciously wondering if he could replicate that raw “power” he’d felt when the Krang was infecting him, and if he could control it, understand it.

- He didn’t like that, but over time he felt it was necessary to beating the Krang. “Keep your friends close, and keep your enemies closer” type deal

- So Donnie becomes “the guy in the chair” (oh yeah he also rebuilt Shelldon. Finally. </3)

- Cj was born, Cassandra had fallen in battle only a few months later, leaving the turtles and April to fully take care of CJ

- While Leo, being the leader, took on most of the responsibility, Donnie got to spend more time with CJ as a result of staying at their base more

- Donnie LOVED being around CJ, he would teach CJ everything he knew, even if CJ didn’t quite understand him yet. He even let CJ hang around in his lab, (as long as he touched NOTHING.) Donnie even upgraded Cassandra’s hockey stick and mask then gave them to CJ

- only a few years later had Raph fallen as well

- Donnie felt as if it was partially his fault Raph couldn’t get out alive, and so he begrudgingly quit his role as “the guy in the chair,” dedicating all of his time to his inventions

- He became MUCH more reclusive, leaving everyone in the dark about what (and how) he was doing. To CJ, he was more of a “presence” rather than an uncle now

- He then revealed his new invention, the Raph mech (Don has the shittiest coping skills known to man)

- Another couple years pass, Don still using all of his time to conduct his “experiments”

- Around this time, Leo had lost his arm. Donnie reconfigured one of his Raph mech’s arms to fit Leo to use as a prosthetic, the Raph mech was later decommissioned

- One day, Donnie oddly insisted on tagging along on a mission with Leo and Mikey

- HOLY MOLY LONG STORY SHORT, they get caught by a Krang soldier on their mission. But instead of taking cover, Donnie charges straight for the Krang mech

- Mikey and Leo watch in astonishment as Donnie manages to swiftly climb up onto the Krang mech and mount himself on its back, using his battle shell’s limbs for support

- To their horror, Donnie rips off his gloves and reveals his robotic arms, and starts tearing into the back of the mech, digging into the inside of it

- He deploys the wires and his own Krang biomass from his robotic arms, and shoves it all into the back of the Krang mech

- For a few moments, he struggles. Then, with purple glowing markings, his expression suddenly changes and the opening where the Krang soldier was mounted closed up, crushing the Krang inside

-ok so longer story shorter- through all of the struggle, the Krang he’d trapped in his prosthetic arms had been creeping onto him and was soon to make contact with his skin. And the building they were all in starts to collapse, (and when I say “building” I mean a giant NY style skyscraper,) and in an effort to save Mikey and Leo from being crushed, Donnie holds up what rubble he can with the now possessed mech, getting himself crushed, unable to hold up all the weight forever.

(But not before an epic and heartfelt monologue and musical number.)

Good god I’m so EMBARRASSING

I wish. I could wright fanfiction.

Goodbye now 🏃💨

[potionpeddlerpatchy]

@oooohno I found it!!

Every time I think of Royal AUs and Prince Shouto.... I feel very strong feelings

[blushstories]

I’m back i know i know i bet you missed me djdkemem. I’ve just been thinking about Butcher and how he doesn’t seem like a cuddly type to me lol. So I was wondering if you’d please write something with how you think Billy shows affection physically?

HOLY MOLY YES. a compilation of physical affection from butcher coming right up. domestic to hurt comfort pipeline uknow -- sorry this took forever!!

The teaspoon clinks against the ceramic mug on the countertop, wayward drops of tea pooling around where metal meets granite as you put it down. Footsteps peel around the doorway and Butcher’s hand is pulled to one of two mugs as a moth to a flame.

Your own mug warms your chilled fingers, and you catch Butcher’s eye as he takes a sip from the unsweetened beverage, fingertips clamped around the rim. He winks, and with the knuckle of his index finger nudges underneath your chin. It’s quick, it slips past, but it says “thank you,” — or, more likely, “thanks, love.”

—

Your shoulders are hiked up to your ears, face inching closer to the screen of your laptop with every moment. You can't make sense of the encrypted files sweeping across the screen and time is running out. Butcher is watching his own screen across the table, head resting on his hand, fingers splayed over his mouth.

You place a foot in between his, squeezing his leg in-between yours. He's too far away to comfortably hold his hand, but he allows your legs to slot perfectly with each other; the comfort of his presence however, is not enough to keep at bay your panic.

His eyes flit to you when you exhale a bit too sharply. Chair legs screech across the ground and his hands warm your shoulders. Thumbs rub against your cool skin, pressing deeper as Butcher works towards the base of your neck. Bubbles of stress pop deep within your muscles, and whatever brief pain is evoked swiftly dissipates.

"You'll get it. Don't you worry," he says quietly.

_

The office – or more accurately, the Boys' hideout – is bustling. MM and Annie are leaning over his laptop, Hughie is peeling newspapers apart with a highlighter in hand, and Butcher is making coffees. You're stood in front of the whiteboard, making a plan for your next Vought operation. You're replaying every version of the plan you write, erasing and rewriting until the creases of your fingertips are filled with marker residue. You startle at fingers grazing your lower back. The corner of Butcher's mouth lifts, and you watch him place a mug on your desk.

"Whiteboard eraser lives over there, y'know." He gestures to the stand, where it does indeed rest next to the other pens. You roll your eyes playfully. "I prefer it this way. Helps me think better," You say. His hand returns to your lower back, fingertips slipping just under the hem of your shirt. "If you say so."

-

The surface of your skin glasses with ice as you begin to believe that heat is a myth. Your blood is speckled with shards of the stuff, and Butcher sits on the other side of the sofa. He doesn’t cuddle, you know that — he zips around who knows where all day and knows the sorts of sticky teasing that would seep into the minds of the Boys.

He uses the left armrest of the sofa to keep his head propped up, staring blankly at Vought News as they report another “incident” induced by one of their heroes.

A shiver runs up your spine, teeth knocking against each other as cold sets into your bones. "What does warmth feel like?" You joke, curling into yourself. "You're cold?" His eyes scan your shivering body. "Aren't you?"

Butcher shrugs. You scoff in disbelief, a vapour of your breath floating through the air immediately in front of you. "Unbelievable."

You turn back to the TV, only for your peripherals to alert you to movement from Butcher; he's lifted his arm up and opened his coat to you. Your jaw drops, "are you sure?" "Well, 'urry up, before I change my mind," he doesn't say it meanly. But you close the space between you in a blink and gently settle into his side. The excess of his coat wraps around you, and so does his body heat. His hand squeezes your shoulder and you feel a feather-light kiss to your head.

To love or not to love, that is the questio-

Ok whoops wrong reference. Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I made a MV of the song "Darling Dance" by Kairiki Bear featuring my favourite little tricksters for the occasion!

I'd rather you go straight to Youtube to watch it because Tumblr always finds a way to cut the quality, lol.

Eng subtitles are available too!

Here it is! Hope you enjoy my pride and joy. Basically like a hopeful child but in video format. Reblogs are specially appreciated because Youtube sucks at promoting new channels!

This also acts as a behind-the-scenes post, so let's get straight into that, shall we?

MV Project 1 "Darling Dance"

Illustration time: 37 hours

Editing time: Approx. 30-35 hours

Total: 70 hours

*Cough* Holy freakin' moly does making an MV take so long. Before you roll off your bed, I'll say that part of the reason making the art took so long was because I have trouble drawing Marx consistently.

Here's some unused assets! Look at them, they're all salty over not making the cut.

In all seriousness though, a lot of times I don't really see a lot of editors/ MV makers getting appreciation for their efforts. And now that I've personally experienced making an MV for the first time, it's also increased my admiration to the people who dedicate their time to this! All the kudos to them.

Now, I'll go scene by scene then comment along the way! Spoilers ahead!

Verse 1

Pretty good for what it is. In the first image, you see that heart behind Magolor? I discovered the motion of it on complete accident lol. Capcut is hard to figure out..

I also really like the color palette of 2nd image. That art of Marx was the last one I did during production (aka I drew it this morning), and just look at him. He's such a bastard he's the best.

Pre Chorus 1

Mmmm yeah it sure is the pre chorus! I put a bar behind the text in the middle because I didn't want people to stare into their soulless eyes for too long. That probably worked!

1st Chorus

When I first added in the expression change, I fangirled over it a little on the first rewatch. Like, come on! They suddenly look mischievous, and the color change on the background! I know I drew it but still!

For the rest, I experimented a little with all the "Nah"s! I think it ended up well. Most of the lyric editing in this MV is completely original, so I had a couple of things to try out!

Verse 2

This song is horrifically outdated because it says Twitter instead of X!! (/sarcasm)

This scene is my second favourite. I'm really proud of the details on the tabs and the editing at the beginning! Wish I could put more images but the app only allows ten. Bummer.

Pre Chorus 2

I think it's cute, and I used it as my pfp on YouTube! That's about it though.. image limit is killing me I can't put anything here :(

Chorus 2

...Not gonna spoil it! I like how I drew them, but there ain't anything notable. Unless you look at the last image I put right before the bridge. :)

Bridge

This is where my editing comes in freakin' clutch. Ooooooh it's so satisfying to look at. Chef's kiss. Also those Marxs (Marxes?) are really cute.

The second part of the bridge is nice as well! I tried to make the lyrics snap to the rhythm. Glad I added that tv effect in the bg too!

Chorus 3

This scene is my favourite! Wanna know why?

This sequence right here. I think I will etch it into my brain forever... I love me some snappy editing. Like a lot. Like a lot a lot!

The second part of the chorus is like the original song's MV! I loved the hearts popping in and out whoever thought of that is a genius. Putting it into the MV was a good decision!

And that's a wrap! Hope you enjoy the MV as much as I enjoyed making it. And, stay tuned for next time! I have a feeling a certain jester is getting his own solo MV...

Feel free to leave your thoughts either in the Youtube comments section or here. See you around!

HOLY MOLY THIS TOOK A LONG TIME

[peekychu]

hi, ive loved your art forever, finally working up the courage to send an ask ahshdjfjf

when i was a kid i was really attached to the pokemon anime and i remember that one episode about the charmander being left all alone in the rain, and then being saved by ash and given a chance to recover, i remember projecting so hard onto it and wanting to be given that chance as well, to have someone save me like that. anyways, your art has always made me Feel Things, theres a very sentimental quality to your art and the way you design characters. i connect a lot with your sadder stuff as well. youre very good at storytelling in your work, especially that piece with ray about wanting to return to the places in your childhood but not ever experiencing them the same way. man, you hit that feeling right on the head.

anyways, where was i going with this. i struggle a lot with trying to reclaim some parts of my childhood, it took me a lot to even remember that i projected so much onto that charmander. but seeing a pikachu be so.. i dont know, happy about connecting with pokemon so much, it just, it means a lot to me. i used my imagination as escapism and id like to try and reconnect with it. i am using your art as a guide and as inspiration.. i feel like i can get close to that again.

i hope animal friends brings you joy and i will be so happy if you choose to share any of it. and im sorry about your job, ive been in that exact situation, stay strong

sincerely, one online animal beast to another <3

Oh my GOD, this ask is so touching idek where to start answering 😭😭😭 Wow, thank you!!!

Instant follow btw, ur drawings are so dynamic and sensory, and HOLY moly your anatomy skills 🤯 I’m super honored!!!

I honestly forget ppl ever see my more sad/melancholy drawings, I wasn’t expecting it to affect me so hard hearing someone mention it xD Drawing is one of the few vessels I can properly channel my emotions with, and there’s a lot more raw stuff I don’t share online. I never know if the catharsis I feel drawing the Heavier stuff translates, because I still center those drawings around silly animals xD

I’m so happy you were able to rediscover your connection with Ash’s charmander!! That episode always made me emotional too 💔 I can’t say where my lifelong fixation on Pikachu really began, but my mom told me that even before I engaged with anything pkmn related, I was just immediately enamored by seeing it at a store or on TV xD

Eventually she took me to see Pokémon 4ever in theaters, and I vaguely remember being instantly ENCHANTED by the little short movie before the actual film began. Those animated shorts of Pikachu with all its friends, no humans attached, were always this ultimate comfort fantasy for me to watch xD

As my identity and personality fluctuates, I always find it comforting being grounded in my connection to Pikachu. The episode where it refused to evolve stuck with me on a deep level too haha.

ANYWAYS UHH I can’t thank you enough for your kind words!!!! I am holding ur paw, you stay strong too!

CIRCE SAGA THOUGHTS!!!! ✨✨🐷

OMG I LOVED THIS SOOOOO MUCH, IT WAS SO GOOD. I love hermes

sorry this is kinda long guys and that it took me forever to make

Puppeteer

-the "polites gear up, you and i'll go ahead" strings at the beginning 😭. I loved polites sm

-Eurylochus trying to talk to Odysseus is just so sad and I love how it shows how he is losing not faith or trust but losing something in odysseus that they are going to make it home

-Odysseus is like actually tired and thinks that he truly is never going to make it home to his family

-JUST THE STRINGS IN GENERAL FOR THIS SONG AND THIS SAGA ARE SOOO PRETTY

-eurylochus' little rap moment(?)>>>>>>

-Odysseus' "damn" and "what" are the spring in my step

-Circe's voice!!!!!!!!! omg guys i love her sm!

-Circe casting her spell (the think of your past bit) is so pretty and i love how she lures them into a false sense of comfort and looks like she's trying to help them

-also love the "no i don't play i puppeteer" part

-"this is the price/we paid to live/the world is not/meant to forgive" 😍

-I LOVE how immediately Odysseus is like we gotta save them and Eurylochus is like we've sacrificed enough, don't you want to get home? and Odysseus is like i would love to but if it were you i would save you and i hope you would too. (also when Eurylochus is like "lets just run", i'm reading some feelings Eury has for someone 👀👀)

-also Odysseus saying "i can hardly sleep now" shows how in tune and how much he truly feels

Wouldn't you like

-HERMES' LAUGHS!!!!

-I love how the three gods we have met, two have come to odysseus invisible before introducing themselves (or Odysseus guessing)

-The chorus is so 70s and i love that, it totally fits his vibe

-The teaser bit that we've had is still beautiful

-The piano! the background vocals!

-holy moly i can't-

-"Wouldn't you like to use more than words?" I love how the gods seem to be following his journey and hermes knows odysseus defeats most of his foes but his wit and he knows circe wont fall for simple words

-Odysseus saying thank you and Hermes is like I just want free entertainment :)

Done For

-more strings <<<333

-Odysseus knows damn well she has his man but he still is trying with his words, cutie

-Love how Circe just wants to protect her nymphs

-Circe's high notes 😍

-I think my favorite part of this song is the part when Odysseus is talking how Circe can't spell him and then their banter

-"then i must be a god like you cause i got this root from the ground with my bare hands" 💀 bro is fully lying

-"Hermes gave it to you, didn't he? well yes but regardless" LMAOOO

-Their little duet ♥

There are other ways

-The opener for this song is wonderful

-Odysseus lamenting about his mistakes is beautiful just *mwah*

-Their voices blend so well together!!!

-I live for Jay using the "Just a man" motif/melody for Odysseus and it calls back to one of his darkest moments

-THE PENOLOPE STRINGS!!!!!!!

-Also apparently Jay messed up with the 12 long years part meaning to say 10 but i think that i shows how Odysseus is kinda losing it

-I love how he rhymes Circe with mercy and calls him and his crew puppets

-i love how circe gave in and decided to help them. ngl im just imagining odysseus give circe big puppy eyes

-"problem is this prophet is dead" the low note!!

-loved how circe is still trying to help him

-it made me so happy how circe changed her chorus to be nicer(?)/more helpful

Honestly in the underworld saga, i want to hear the "open arms" motif and if we do, you can find me on the floor bawling my eyes out

Stay weird, lovies <3

[wisemins]

Howdy Starshine ♡!

I wanted to take this opportunity to ask about your bbc sherlock s/i!!! Please go wild go ham tell me everything about them and your story with them and aaaa I'm just here for it ♡!!

I wanna know everything so don't hold back I'm looking forward to it and having our s/is be friends ♡

Clover @tex-treasures

CLOVERRRR <333 The can of worms you've opened, holy MOLY. You've given me the Sherlock brainrot again, and I'm CHEESIN'

This is gonna be long and convoluted with needless details!!

So a fair warning before I begin, Sherlock and I are perfectly fine and amazing now-- engaged for two years already (that is wild!! need to plan a wedding), but we have definitely had a rough past together. Lots of angst given the circumstances and rough patches in canon. It's the nature of who we were and everything I didn't know about myself at the time all coming up to a boil and his stubbornness (mine included), lack of will to actively choose to be emotionally unintelligent and to put himself in danger, and both of our insecurities combined! So buckle up!! I'm pretty touch and go with canon, there's things I blatantly ignore (like Mary, for example. I never really cared for her, and plus my gf @shinyeeveelynn is John's girl forever <333) and people I despise, (like irene adler, cannot stand this iteration of her for reasons that would take an 20 page essay to convey) and I tend to just replace it with filler cases/my own stuff that I just come up with! So forgive me if the timeline is a bit wishy washy or jumbled up a bit! So, it all began with me moving to London, finding a nice land-lady named Mrs. Hudson, and her moving me right into 221C! We both got instantly close as I lived there for a few months, found a steady job as an artist/writer and had some peace and quiet, alone. Until of course, Sherlock had found his roommate and decided to move in. I didn't bug them much at first at all, I didn't even think they knew someone lived below them! Not until Mrs. Hudson started to get worried for Sherlock and John both, mostly Sherlock since he's a bit...well, you know exactly how he is.

So she sent me to go keep an eye on them, from afar as to not meddle with things, but I tried my best. I'm not the most unnoticeable person ever, so eventually Sherlock caught on, and made it into a whole convoluted thing about it being connected somehow to the case-- he then realized where he had seen me before. Just...coming in and out of my apartment to the store, talking to Mrs. Hudson, small things he just never paid attention to enough to remember willingly until then. I just explained the simplicity of the reason, and it turned into a friendly introduction via John, and an indignant realization on Sherlock's part. They let me tag along, much to Sherlock's dismay, and after the case was said and done I took them out to eat for a little post-solving victory treat. That's when I got to know them more, and they finally got acquainted with me. I was obviously a foreigner from the US, from some dusty, hot desert state. An irish-native american who needed a fresh start and inspiration for her artistic career. Although, Sherlock did his little observational party trick on me which-- well, it wasn't correct. At least most of it was incorrect. He got the American thing right, which would've been kinda funny if he didn't-- but the rest was around the area of correctness but not actually true. This knocked John's socks off since...well he usually gets that kind of thing right! That's when Sherlock's invisible beef with me began.

This started our first dynamic of me challenging Sherlock in many ways, most of them not even intellectually speaking-- I'm gonna say this in the kindest way possible to y'all, I'm...kinda smooth brained, but I'm funny about it. At least, academically speaking. I'm very much more intuitively inclined, and the 'Tism only assists me in gaining knowledge on things I like, I'm also far more creatively inclined. I'm a 6th grade dropout, I keep this in all of my canons because it's important to how I function as a person, I'm not academically inclined unless it's something I absolutely love. I do love deductions and solving problems, but not in the same way. Sherlock is unbelievably smart in his own way, but we're the same in the way of sometimes we're just stupid for no reason 😭😭

I also am of the belief that Sherlock is without a doubt autistic as well!! like him not knowing the earth revolved around the sun, CHOOSING to not know/forget. That's some shit I would also do. He's is more intelligent than I am on different levels-- but we both didn't always know this about each other. We're both on thin ice when it comes to social cues, autism be like.

Only this caused conflict more than once. Mental disabilities 100% clash sometimes and that was just apart of our past, we didn't understand ourselves or each other and we both ended up hurting. This will come up very soon!

It was probably a year/several months into those two solving crimes together that I decided I'd put in a joint effort to advertise their services with my artistic abilities-- with every blog post that John wrote about a case, I would draw up a small comic strip to gain a sort of brand/notable yet digestible theme. It was a hit, and it was something cute I wanted to do for them. Throughout the first three parts of series one, Sherlock and I had an on and off acknowledgement of our feelings for each other. He was crude, crass, sarcastic and sometimes blatantly rude to me, but there wasn't ever a true malicious vibe to his words, it felt more-so like a defense.

His actions spoke louder than his harsh words most of the time. Protecting me if I ever got involved, taking me out to eat to explain the details of the latest case, involving me in his process for no reason that he ever wanted to explain, I was also one of few to get a true laugh out of that man. Eventually John caught onto both of us, he's *definitely* more normal than both of us, still not quite normal, but average enough. He would talk to Sherlock about it, he'd deny it, then panic at random intervals to John about how to "deal" with his unwanted feelings.

Me, Mrs. Hudson and Molly would also discuss this in our own private girl-talk time. Mrs. Hudson was all of the mindset that if I truly liked him that I should go for it, but also warned me from heartbreak simply due to Sherlock's nature. She knew he was a good man with a good heart, but sometimes even *he* didn't understand that side of himself. He paraded around acting like a cold unfeeling robot, but deep down he feels sometimes even more intensely than others. Molly agreed generally, but also encouraged me in the same length.

I felt so impossibly torn between my feelings and protecting my peace. I didn't know how Sherlock truly felt, and I didn't want to get rejected by a man who could read you to filth and into your grave. But, I ended up just pulling up my boots and going for it, subtly. I began to actually try and flirt here and there, in my own way. Making him tea, making sure he's taken care of food-wise, more joking around and genuine compliments. And I noticed a difference, he was...softer. Less jabs, including me even more, and he would even compliment me right back.

But I knew something had changed when he commented on my appearance, that hadn't really happened before. Eventually, at some point we were always with each other, and always were doing *something* together. It slipped out of him during some rant after a guy was hitting on me-- that I was his girlfriend. And after that we didn't really quite say anything more on it, but affection came about far more loosely after that.

But, then we clashed throughout series 2. It was now us misunderstanding each other, me taking things personally, him becoming jaded that I was becoming more recluse, it wasn't fun and that's when things got very turbulent. With the label came both of us being inexperienced with relationships and a lot of hurt. John *really* tried to help us out but sometimes being autistic/having adhd can take a toll on communication because of how much you want the other person to just. READ YOUR MIND. But, that's not possible so we ended up in a huge mess. Long story short, we broke up probably just before The Reichenbach Fall. Sherlock stated that it was because of the impending threats I was getting and how dangerous it was for me to even be involved, but we both agreed it "wasn't working out".

Then Sherlock being Sherlock, well, he faked his death and that caused a whole world of hell for two years! I was obviously devastated, and regretted everything thereafter. I did the whole dramatic confession of love and adoration at his tombstone, not knowing he was being a little stalker from the shadows, stuff like that.

Those two years were rough for me because I was also left in the dark with John. I never quite moved on from the incident and it changed my way of life, I had to move out of the building due to the memories, my career path changed into working a standard job because being creative was too strenuous to keep up. The media frenzy was crazy too, so I had to avoid nearly everything I was used to.

All until Sherlock decided to prance back into the game, via jump scaring John and his...choice of a mustache (soz John that was NOT the move) and eventually he also decided to ease himself back into my life by approaching me at work, and when I didn't even notice him he got a bit offended and forward until I registered that it was him under a stupid disguise. Needless to say I had to leave work early, and hear him out in front of the street.

It was very emotional, there were instant hugs, attempts at beating his ass, but most of all a lot of crying from me. Apologies were said, but most of all it was Sherlock attempting to explain everything and why he didn't tell me sooner. I was pissed but mostly at the circumstances, and I tried to suck up all the tears and all the feelings that flooded back immediately. There was some beating around the bush but eventually Sherlock had asked if I had "moved on" from him. The answer was a giant no, obviously, and he seemed relieved. He said he hated how we left it, how he treated me and that he wanted to start anew, and I was beyond happy to hear that. Cue the first I love you's and kisses here!!! Very romantic!!!

Then began where we are right now basically! We understood each other better and now knew what we meant to each other which was a huge one. There was a lot of mystery on both of our parts because we didn't know if we truly loved each other. But, thinking someone you loved had DIED is a good way to figure that out. Damn you, Sherly.

Probably continuing further into the series, we became a full fledged couple that included me moving in with Sherlock and John part-time, solving cases again, going back to my artist career and living the chaotic domestic life!!! <3

At some point within that time period after the fact, Sherlock awkwardly proposed to me in his jammies one morning, and it was the most adorable endearing thing of all time. I love him so so much and I really do need to plan that wedding! So we've been engaged for two years now, more domestic bliss, cutesy stuff!

Sorry this took SOOOOO long to answer, I really just wanted to be concise and these aren't even all the details! Just mostly the timeline/startings of how we're together now! I really appreciated you asking me about this!! I love my Sherlock canon!!!

[fareehaandspaniards]

can i get uuuuuuhhh Olek for the character ask game !

HOLY MOLY yay!!

Favourite thing about them:

I can summon him so often! And I like him being ONLY in pthumeru chalices. I suppose this is his special interest

Least favorite thing about them:

Wasn't really helpful in a battle with Amygdala in the Chalice. Queen Killer won this round

Favorite line:

favorite LINE. in a FROMSOFTWARE game. when 5/7 of my favs have no LINES

Can I put there quote from my fic then? XD

"I don't know. They're all heavy and… To me, they're all equally uncomfortable and incomprehensible. I have to learn to work with all of them though. Olek, why did you choose the kirkhammer… You're Olek, right? I apologize if I-”

Damian nodded his head in apology, but his speech was interrupted by the other.

"Nevermind. Yes, the name is Olek. You see, buddy,” and the conspiratorial tone made Damian laugh. "this weapon is a contrast in itself. Deafening power and deadly speed"

Olek said it with feelings, and his eyes widened with emotion. It seemed like he is about to press his lips to his hammer.

"I don't know how to wield it myself, but for the sake of such a juicy silver lady, I should at least try…."

"People usually end badly when they think too much of themselves"

Olek rubbed his chin thoughtfully, the light stubble growing on his darkish skin.

brOTP

Olek x Gremia. No, really, their union is something incredibly silly and funny. They are two guys who grew up on the street, so they understand each other perfectly, communicating with the "lower" Yharnam dialect. They had each other always, until the very end, and Olek healed Gremia's broken heart many times (when Damian left Tomb Prospectors) with drinks and walks around the city, as well as sometimes making fun of the Church servants. And Gremia did for him the same, when Olek felt sad or tired!

The two of them would look in the direction of a beautiful girl, and Olek would be like, "What a hot chick 😏😏😏" and Gremia would be like "Yeaaaah 🤤" and everything is fine, until it turns out that Gremia was staring at the old hunter with a cane standing behind this girl (and it's not even Damian)

OTP

Olek x Lady Maria.

I can elaborate!! I don't ship them, because for me Maria will always be with Gehrman. BUT. According to the plot of my fic, Olek often visited the Research Hall, where he met Maria. And of course he was attracted by her ancestry. At first, it was even more of a scientist's interest, and he tried to find out from Logarius, from Gehrman and from Ludwig who she was. And when he tried to get to know her to learn more about Cainhurst Castle and its queen, he found that next to Maria's straightforward kindness and politeness he was speechless. Literally couldn't say a word because of embarassment. And he couldn't ask her anything. He fell in love with her, but the feeling remained unspoken, and Olek tried to kill it in himself. And although he often made small signs of attention for Maria, like bringing treats or tea or flowers, he was never able to get close to her or at least find out what was weighing on her heart and soul. He did his best 🥺

And Logarius ridiculed his sensitivity

Random headcanon

Throughout his life, Olek is haunted by failures in romantic adventures. Although he is a kind, caring and rather reverent guy, he does not manage to build a long-term relationship due to various reasons. He is hampered by his work, stubborn nature, and obsession with the Pthumerians (which makes him think about them almost constantly). He would make a wonderful family man, but in the end he gives up in search of his soulmate and remains forever in the dungeons of Ptumeru.

When he reached the tomb of Queen Yharnam, he took a blood oath and in madness asked for communion to pthumerians

Unpopular opinion

There are probably no Popular opinions here. I don't know actually. Only that he is much more important than it seems and a part of the story just as other old hunters

Song I associate with them:

Language of Love by Ylvis or Janym by Ylvis lol
