Ough, thinking about cybertronians with their laugh lines/smile lines, the wrinkles of mesh around their nose and optics, and their eyebags, and their scars, and such.

Just aspects of their personality and history etched and indented into the metal and mesh of their frames.

b1rdza mentioned this in his own post but ill make one myself too: the best practice ive been able to get in writing dsmp characters is to go through clips and scenes, and write out what the character says, stutters, pauses, everything.

so like, for cranboo i tried the panic room scene, and this is what i wrote for a bit of it:

"No okay. He got it. How did he get it? There's no way. Does it have something to do with me waking up here? I really don't. I don't get it. Someone stole it- someone stole it- and its just gone. Tubbo has it- Tubbo has everything that I've been doing since- since I joined. [Ranboo sounds broken, terrified, almost to tears.] He's gonna know. The closest person that I had............. He's gone now. The way that he looked at me, I'll never get that out of my head.

........

I don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow. I have no one to talk to about this- I have no one to talk to. I have... It's just me. [Ranboo plays Mellohi in the jukebox on the floor.] But why-why is it just me? Why is it just me? How come no one realizes? How come that did nothing? How come they're so wrapped up in their own little... world, it's just... terrible. It's just terrible, but why? [He crouches down in the corner of the room.] But why- why do they do this? Why do they keep on............."

it's really helpful!

Ace steals a label printer and decides to be a menace.

Part 2! Part 3!

Almost a year ago I bought a label printer at Goodwill, and the next day in was thinking about Ace being a menace with one. So that's how this came up!

As usual, @rose-lord-of-simps pitched in. And I will be making it's additions purple! Like normal.

This is gonna be part 1, btw. It's longer than my Beauty and the Beast one.

I have little breaks of conversation, and because it's just spurt they're gonna be colored. Code! Ace, Deuce, Yuu/MC. These are the colors I'm using!

☆ This all started because Ace decided to steal a label printer from the staff lounge. And now he decided to create absolute chaos. He's doing a shitty, mini evil laugh because he doesn't wanna get caught yet.

☆ He gets Epel, Deuce and Yuu involved. Yuu starts it all off by writing "useless bird", prints it, and sticks it on Crowley's office door.

☆ Epel decides to types out "pretentious prick" and attempts, keyword attempts, to stick it on something of Vil's.

~ ♡ He was promptly caught by Rook. he'd let it slide if it said "beautiful pretentious prick"

~ ♡ He'd let the label/sticker slide if it was a compliment. A genuine compliment.

☆ Someone Yuu types "sad dragon" and tries to stick it on something of Malleus'

~ ♡ Sebek is appalled, Lilia thinks it's funny,Silver doesn't know what to think

~ ♡ Silver wouldn't know whether to laugh, rip it off, or hug Malleus

~ ♡ If Malleus had seen it, Silver does all three. A quick, surprised/confused laugh, quicking covering it up with an "Oh, oh no. Oh nooooo." silently chuckling as he peels it off and gives a pouting Malleus a side hug.

~ ♡ Half the reason he's giving Malleus a hug is because Lilia pulled him into it, the other is because he genuinely feels slightly bad about it.

~ ♡ Sebek is fumming, too angry on Malleus' behalf to get pulled in to the hug.

~ ♡ If Malleus isn't pouting after having seen it, Lilia would be the only one to hug him. If he didn't see it all together, Lilia still hugs him and Malleus is just confused as fuck.

~ ♡ Yuu apologizes if he's pouting about it on their night walk.

☆ Someone put "touch starved" on Azul's locker. His locker. And he, for the life of him, can't figure out who it fucking was.

~ ♡ Jade's good at lying, Floyd couldn't be bothered to figure out how the printer works, and the braincell trio are still scared of the octatrio. Yuu less so of Azul.

~ ♡ Spoiler alert! It was Jade! Yuu gave him the idea in passing.

☆ Someone put "sunshine" on Kalim's door and he's really happy about it.

☆ Ace wants to play Cupid.

~ ♡ If there's a couple that has really obvious chemistry, to him or to everyone, he's making a label saying "JUST KISS ___ ALREADY!" and sticking it to both parties things.

~ ♡ If he's doing it for Yuu and someone else, Ace is yelling at Yuu, and Yuu is yelling at him, all the while he's sticking labels on the other person's things.

"Ace, what does the other half of this say-""IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU TWO-" Or "Ace, what are you writing?" "Oh, it's ABOUT TIME Y'ALL FUCK!" "But you can't just write that and stick it on his DOOR!" "You gonna look at me and tell me I'm wrong?!" "..." "That's what I fuckin thought."

☆ Ace gets the silent treatment for a month, even if it works. Yuu is hella salty.

~ ♡ Deuce probably punches him once he hears about it.

☆ Ruggie tells them to put "lazy asshole" on Leona's door.

~ ♡ They do it. Kinda.

~ ♡ They write it and make Ruggie actually put it on his door.

☆ EVERY student in Scarabia wants them to put "Snake", or something mean on Jamil's door. Minus Kalim.

~ ♡ They're not still salty, nooooo! Where'd you get that idea? They totally got over the fact that Jamil made them stay at NRC during their winter break, putting them through hell in the desert, and trying to pawn it off as NRC's brightest boy's plan!

~ ♡ Real shit? Yuu is making bids. The highest offer gets to write/make the label and they'll stick it on one of Jamil's things.

~ ♡ If Kalim finds out about it, there's two options on what he's doing. He's either stopping the function normally, or he's becoming the highest bidder and leaving a compliment on Jamil's door.

~ ♡ No one can out bid him. Not a single one of his dorm members. And know Yuu is set for months.

~ ♡ Uses almost all of it to fix Ramshackle. And then bird brain finds out about it, cause of the repairs, and takes the money that wasn't used for "causing a commotion".

☆ If someone writes "cute" or "adorable" and sticks it on to one of Epel's things, Ace is getting beat up.

~ ♡ Absolutely does not matter if Ace is the one who made it or not, he's getting the blame.

~ ♡ Spoiler, it was Yuu and Deuce. It is undecided if Ace knows if it was them or not.

☆ Leona either bribed the trio, or just took the printer, and put "creep" or "stalker" on Rooks door.

~ ♡ If he bribed them, Rook shot an arrow through the label as a warning before the trio could even stick it on.

~ ♡ They all kinda fear him, so they didn't try again.

☆ Ace put "zero to a hundred" on Deuce.

~ ♡ Not on his door or anything. Just...on him. Right on his forehead.

~ ♡ Meanwhile, Yuu sticks "himbo" on him. And on Silver's locker.

☆ Someone put "mega gamer" on Idia's door? It's unclear who.

~ ♡ Man doesn't care one bit. If, when he leaves, and notices it, he just goes "HA! Yeah!". Even if the culprit meant it as an insult, he doesn't know, and doesn't care.

☆ Ace is mean enough to think about putting "robo-bitch" on Ortho's door.

~ ♡ Lives in fear of the brothers, mainly Ortho, so he doesn't go through with it.

☆ I'd like to think he's into obscure-ish music, and he decided to label everyone with either a song title or lyric and almost nobody gets it.

~ ♡ Ortho would, after searching, and Idia might have like a 25% chance of knowing wtf this man wrote.

~ ♡ Some of them he means as an insult...most he means as an insult.

~ ♡ Cater and Trey have knowledge of, mostly, obscure trivia, shit that would get them the question of "why would you know that". It indirectly gives Ace material to work with. It also makes him look it up.

☆ His favorite person to bully with the labels is Riddle, because he doesn't have any knowledge that Ace stole the label printer.

☆ Also sticks a bunch of random ass tiktok memes to everyone's door, locker, or bag.

~ ♡ He's on a weird, cursed side of tiktok. Very, very few people get the meme's. The ones that do either laugh or go "oh shiiiiiiiit".

~ ♡ It's usually on Riddle, and any student that has overblotted, so it's almost always the "oh shiiiiiiiit" reaction.

~ ♡ Idia gets tamer shit. Shit like "shut it", "Walmart Hades" and it's almost always on his door. A couple times he stuck it on his tablet, just so Ace knows Idia saw it.

☆ The only people to get any sort of nice, or nicer, nickname/label would be Deuce and Yuu.

~ ♡ Also, sidenote, he would give someone a fuckin My Little Pony nickname.

~ ♡ He had an mlp phase at six, and still listens to some of the songs.

[dontopenfairies]

She’s standing in front of the bathroom sink, getting ready to brush her teeth, when he comes looking for her. “Hi, honey,” she says as he wraps his arms around her waist and leans his head against her shoulder. “Are you ready for bed, too?” He nods sleepily against her shoulder.

“Is your diaper still clean?” she asks. Another nod. “That’s good.” She sets down the toothpaste and starts brushing her teeth.

“Will you…” he starts to mumble something but gets embarrassed and gives up halfway through, burying his head in her shoulder.

She takes the toothbrush out of her mouth. “I’m brushing my teeth, sweetheart. One second, okay?” He nods again, and just stands there with her while she finishes brushing and spits in the sink.

“Okay, what’s up?” she asks, rubbing the back of his head and kissing his forehead.

“Would you…um…”

“Come on, baby. You can say it. What do you want to tell me?”

“I want you to…uhm….” He hides his face again.

“What’s up? Did something go wrong? Ohh, did you have an accident while you were in here?Do you need a change?” He shakes his head roughly. “You’re still clean?”

“I don’t need a change,” he says, slowly raising his head. “Would you mind brushing my teeth for me?” And then his face is right back in its place against her and she can feel the warm redness in his cheeks.

“Oh, okay. Yeah, I can do that. Pass me your toothbrush.” He does so, so quickly he almost fumbles it over the sink. She squeezes out a little toothpaste on it and runs it under the tap. “Open your mouth and lean your head back a little. Wider. Okay. There you go. Perfect.” She braces her left hand against the side of his cheek as she brushes his teeth, probably getting spots in his back molars he usually misses. “Stick out your tongue, that’s important. Good boy. Okay, now I’m going to get the very front one last time. Bite your teeth together. Okay, there we go. You can spit now.”

He leans down and spits in the sink and she rinses off his toothbrush and puts it away. “Okay, are you ready for bed now?” she asks. “Aw, you’re all red. Did that get you worked up?”

He looks away and nods very shyly, almost imperceptibly.

“Aw. You’re so weird. Come on, let’s go to bed.”

I am thinking thoughts about airports and flying again. And Dreamling, of course.

So. Human AU. History professor Hob has to fly around a lot for work, perhaps for conferences or smth of the sort so it's always to a small handful of the same nearby cities. He's pretty neutral on the idea of flying in general, though he wishes it was a bit more environmentally friendly, but Hob is a sucker for a nice airport and especially a nice airport lounge during layovers or before boarding.

Hob has begun to frequent a small local airline (White Horse Air, the logo is a coat of arms with a little pegasus, wyvern, and hippogriff on it, haha) when traveling because he likes their service (they've never lost his bags, not even once!) and their flights are never fully booked, which makes them quieter and easier for hob's chronic pains. He always picks seats with no one next to him so he can sprawl out and so it's easier on his knees.

Until, one day, he boards the little plane and there's someone in the seat next to his. Hob's sure that when he booked his seat, the other one was empty. Oh well, whatever, Hob's not going to bother the other man already sitting there for one flight— he'll just have to be a little more mindful booking next time. Hob shuffles into the seat, and notices that the stranger sat beside him is reading Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur! Hob gets excited because! That's a William Caxton publication! And Hob has so much to say about Caxton! He turns to the stranger to strike up conversation about it and... is immediately lost at how pretty the stranger is. Handsome, gorgeous, yes of course, but pretty, with the shell pink lips and focused blue eyes and slight frown at the book in his hands. Hob picks up his metaphorical jaw off the metaphorical ground and strikes up conversation with the stranger. Though the other man starts off apprehensive, somehow the two hours of flying fly by and the two of them end up talking about all sorts of art, history, and everything in between. Hob learns that the stranger works in publishing, thus his interest in Caxton.

Their flight lands, and the two of them disembark at the gate, still attempting to continue their conversation while Hob tries to wrangle his carry-on bags. (The Stranger only has a small laptop bag on one shoulder and a suit jacket folded over his other arm with him.) Then Hob has to check the time and begrudgingly says that he should probably head towards his next gate soon— this is just a layover after all. The Stranger looks ever so slightly disappointed and admits that this is his actual destination and he needs to meet his sister soon. They part ways, and Hob tries to dwell on the strange warmth in his chest. He thinks about the Stranger for his entire work trip afterwards.

This, somehow, happens a couple times. Turns out they both frequent White Horse Air, and though they're never in booked seats next to each other again, the flights are always empty enough that they can shift to sit next to each other once the plane's in the air. They chat the flight away, and then part ways once they disembark, with the Stranger headed to the baggage claim and Hob to his next flight. One time, the Stranger even requests the hostess to bring out a special bottle of Chateau Lafitte 1828 just for the two of them to share. Hob's in awe. He really enjoys their conversations, it's nice to be able to talk about his interests in a non-academia environment. The Stranger always has the most intriguing and eye-opening perspectives on everything, too. It doesn't really help that Hob thinks... maybe he's developing a tiny, teeny, really inconsequential really crush on his Stranger. He's not in grade school anymore, how does he feel like this about someone he doesn't even know the name of yet!

This all comes to a head when Hob mentions to the Stranger that his layover is a bit longer than it usually is, and if the Stranger is in no rush, they can continue their conversation in one of the airport's lounges. White Horse Air is a bit too small an airline to have their own lounge, but Hob's collected enough miles to get into one of the other airline lounges and is fully willing to pay to get in one if it means more time with his Stranger.

The Stranger is extremely enthusiastic about the idea— which shows up physically as a subtle, coy upturning at the corner of his mouth and a little sparkle in his eye. (Hob feels proud that he can read this reaction so well.) He's so enthusiastic, in fact, that the Stranger offers to get them both into a first-class lounge. Hob doesn't even pretend to hesitate to say yes.

Let's just say they get to the lounge, split some cheese and wine, and the proceed to get even more enthusiastic with each other in a private room. Hob's lucky he brought a change of clothes in his carry-on. (Maybe Hob's not so lucky and can't sit comfortably during his next three-hour flight.)

Hob gets a bit emotional when he has to leave for his next flight (already missing being able to hold his Stranger's face so gently, being able to card his fingers through his soft, smokey hair) and gets his guts together to ask if the Stranger wants to exchange phone numbers or something, so they can be in contact more regularly. Perhaps even, meet on purpose maybe? The Stranger smiles and kisses him lightly on the cheek when he slips a business card into Hob's hand.

Hob's so caught up in it all that he doesn't check the business card until he's fully boarded and sat on his next flight. And he gawks.

Morpheus Aion The Dreaming Publishing House

As in, one of White Horse Air's biggest shareholders? Aion, as in, probably the sibling of Teleute Aion? As in, Teleute Aion, the CEO of White Horse Air?! Hob almost passes out.

In the end, Morpheus and Hob laugh it out. Morpheus promises he never abused his sibling privileges to invade Hob's privacy, but used the sibling perks to frequent White Horse Air flights a little more than he even needed to just for the chance to see Hob again. They're both happy to not need to keep flying just for that chance anymore, haha. Idiots in love! Turns out, while Teleute lives where Hob keeps having his layovers, Morpheus and Hob actually live just a few hours driving from each other from their shared initial departure location. It all works out perfectly, and Morpheus self-restraint from inviting Hob to move in (so they don't have to keep travelling to see each other, no matter how small) lasts not even a year after they officially start dating. Hob doesn't even pretend to hesitate to say yes :)

(Years down the line, much after they're married, Hob finally has enough miles to get them back into those first-class lounges to have more fun. It's all very lovely.)

Happy ten years to transcendence au and almost as long to Brian the organ duck! How time flies...

I haven't drawn anything for this au in ages but I did remake the 8tracks playlists on Spotify if anyone uses that. Before Brian shows up, imagine Dipper and Mabel are discussing songs to add to the answering machine playlist (which. that's. Did I mean hold music all this time? lol)

[arcadekitten]

Because I’m a really normal person I decided to make a list of (almost)all my characters that have appeared in games and what their Loves(Primary Interest), Likes(Secondary Interest), and Dislikes would be if they were MySims characters.

Some disclaimers:

Some MySims games have different names for the various interests–this list is based off the original MySims and its 6 interests. 

One of the interests in the original MySims is classified as “Tasty”. Please note that if a character has “Tasty” in their dislikes, it should not be taken as an indicator of a character having a negative relationship with food. A character disliking tasty does not mean the character would hold negative opinions over your relationship with food, either, regardless of what that relationship may be. Rather, it would probably be more about characters perhaps being bad at cooking, disagreeing with most characters who DO like tasty, not having a very varied taste palette, being a picky eater, or other things along those lines. Maybe this disclaimer appears silly to some but I always want to encourage others to have a positive and healthy relationship to food. And like me, my characters also want you to eat well. 

Characters are more or less separated into the games they appear in (with some exceptions, like for repeating characters) but individual games will not be labeled. 

Full list under the cut as it is rather long!

The words are stolen from Feliciano’s lips in a terrific rush of joy, his mouth dropping and tears welling up in his eyes as he comes face to face with the brother he’s spent the past four years of his life searching for. There aren’t words in any language he knows that truly express how thankful he is to see him, knowing that all of his effort wasn’t in vain because Lovino is here and he’s alive--! Lovino, however, doesn’t seem to share the sentiment.

hi so remember how i said i was writing a spamano pirate au. here's the first chapter (_/_\)
