Reluctant secret snowflake post for @aliteralgarbageheap

unsliced version and some rambling under cut

Firstly, hopefully I haven't taken too long on this. I was hoping to have it finished around dec 10 but then I had some hiccups and I had to temporarily abandon this due to christmas stress gift preparing. As for the hiccups, originally this would have a fic accompanying it. As you can tell by the lack of fic, that did not happen. The original prompt I had for it though was Neil having a very fun and not at all traumatic time at the nest and Jean being there to help him not fall apart after Riko is finished. Yada yada they bond over waterboarding sucking ass or something. Nosebleed because it's more visually interesting. Secondly, as for the cropping. Originally I was going to gift you the whole drawing (and a fic but we're ignoring that part) but I ended up not liking it! My favourite part of the drawing is Neil's face so I figured why not just zoom in on the good part and cut everything else? But then I thought about all the hours I spent on Jean and such so I decided I might as well still show it, just preface it's.. yeah. It is what it is. But oh well what can you do? Remake it? Probably. But I wanted to try to at the very least have it out for the 25th. Despite the hurdles I hope you still like it!! Happy holidays. Sincerely, your very tired secret snowflake.

Do you fear you'll rot down here with him?

[loadinghellsing]

I really like that in your Andercard dynamic Anderson is the insane one that has to be reeled in (usually it's the opposite from what I've seen)

It just makes me think about Alucard going "oh no" realizing he has to actually care for and pay attention to someone else's safety (that's not tied to his soul and shit)

instead of depicting women doing Just As Many Man Things As The Men For Equality consider........ men doing women things

Modern Inheritance: Bad Reaction (Eldest Supershort)

(A/N: I have had this in my head for a while, but Arya showing Iz her scars and revealing the curse Durza left finally gave me a bit of a push for this. Again, Arya and Glen are Platonic Soulmates, Fyrn Breol, and have fought together for 50-60 years, a majority of those without Fäolin. And they just learned like two to three weeks ago that their best friend is alive, only for them both to start going through massive trauma recovery 'it gets way worse before it gets better' type deals. For even further context, Arya is very, very out of it here and just knows that Glen seems to be hurt and is singleminded on fixing that.)

{Glen and Arya tried to test the curse Durza left in her scars. Just a little nick with a scalpel over one of them, just enough to draw blood, and Glen would heal the cut to test if the curse allowed full healing of new wounds over the old.

It didn't...she had warned him that it would be bad, but...for a moment, he lost her again and he didn't know....}

BAD REACTION (SHORT)

Arya had seen Glenwing cry before. She had seen him cry at funerals, when he saw newly hatched little birds, when he was angry and sad all at once. She’d seen him ugly cry about the good things and the bad, little hiccups escaping him while he laughed at his outburst of emotion or as he tried to hide the tears streaming down his face as he packed up bloodied medical instruments beside the body of a fallen innocent. 

So she couldn’t pinpoint why hearing him crying, body damn near convulsing with the strength of his ragged, gasped sobs, felt so different this time. Maybe it was because she had never heard him cry like this, nothing so pained, so visceral. It sounded like it was being dragged out from his very core, the deepest parts of himself. 

Arya blinked and tried to raise a hand to touch her cheek. They were wet. His tears had fallen on her face, slid down her cheek and splashed on her forehead. For some reason her movement had Glenwing redoubling his sobs, and it was only when he tightened his grip did Arya realize the man was holding her cradled against his chest, arms wrapped tight around her body, the left one unyielding in places where there should have been some softness yet still so warm. 

Her throat hurt. So instead of speaking she reached out to him and managed to brush fingertips on his neck, unable to raise her hand any higher. Fuck, she felt so, ridiculously weak, weak and sore and like there were thunderclouds arguing in her skull. 

But Glen was crying. Glen was crying and he could be hurt so he had to come first, he was hurting and hurting bad, so she could wait. Fyrn Breol takes care of each other. Pick up the pieces, bring each other back. And Glen was crying and whatever had her muscles aching and body encased in lightning, that could wait until Glen…until Glen was okay because fuck, he was all she had left, and she couldn’t let him get hurt–

“Spirits, I thought I killed you!” If it were even possible, Glen held his friend closer and buried his face into her neck, his words nearly lost to the choked sounds of his tears. He rocked them both back and forth, trying to find some way to breathe. He knew he had to calm down but it had been so…so much worse than he thought, and it had lasted longer even when he had ripped away from the magic–

Head snapping back, a ragged, unimaginable sound of agony, of a soul torn to shreds in an instant. The force of the scream or the body remembering, he didn’t know but blood had already filled her mouth before she convulsed to the ground. Tearing away from the magic felt as though it took eons but in reality it was only three seconds of healing, of attempted healing, crimson still trickling from the tiny cut they had made to test it. The seizures didn’t stop when the link was broken, a handful more seconds until she stilled and her eyes were still open–

“Ari, your heart stopped.” Glen forced it out with a ragged gasp, and, unable to stop himself, his sobbing began anew, curling around her as if to try and protect her from his own memories. “I thought I killed you, I killed you, I didn’t know if I could get you back, and I–I thought–”

A hand settled on the back of his neck. 

“Got me back, though.” Oh, her voice. It was rough and barely above a croak, but he could hear the gentle smile there. “You didn’t kill me, birdbrain.” Arya rested her cheek on the top of his head. “He did. A couple times. But hey…I’m here now. You brought me back.”

“I thought I killed you.”

“I know.” 

“I thought I killed you!"

“Shades can…can eat a bag of the fattest of dicks.”

When he pulled back and saw her cracked, wild smile, tired and sore and teeth stained with blood but very, very much alive and very much still the Arya he knew…

Glenwing broke out in a tearstained laugh and pressed his forehead to hers. “Don’t…don’t do that to me again!” 

“Yeah, I’d…like to avoid that too.”

aaugh the final stage of alabasta still gives me chills 😭 but im STRESSED. it goes quicker reading rather than watching it but its like you see all of these characters work really hard under a time limit towards one goal and theyre like "this will fix everything" and then something happens and it doesnt fix anything and they have to pivot but the time limit is even shorter and this happens at least two more times. and then actually fuck you on top of literally everything else there's an atomic bomb that's going off in five minutes and vivi cuts the fuse with literally two seconds to spare but it has a fail safe timer and it's going off regardless. and then you turn around and see Water Luffy.

Copperhead takes time to warm up to people. In his experience, most people cannot see past his appearance and treat him differently, be it with thinking he's creepy or worse, thinking him an animal due to his serpentine looks. Copperhead is okay with the latter; people who assume his intelligence is low or that he doesn't 'experience feelings' like a human only makes it all the easier to take them by surprise when they underestimate him so badly.
