#I just about had a heart attack when I realized that Jeremy Jordan was voicing Lucifer (Light from the musical’s demo)

[captainhysunstuff]

Just a thought radioapple in a death note au cause if I recall from the death note musical light yagami on stage was played by the voice actor of lucifer and the similarity when L and light fight and have to cooperate with eachother like alastor and lucifer argue and cooperate for the hotel and Charlie's sake but it would be funny to have then handcuffed together like a trust test

Ha! I’m low key obsessed with the idea of Alastor and Lucifer being handcuffed to each other in such a way now~. If it’s done on purpose, as you said, it would 100% be a Charlie induced exercise that she somehow guilts/pressures them into agreeing to for a few days. I need to draw something along these lines when I get home from work (if that’s all right). *vibrates in anticipation*

BMC Miraculous Ladybug AU One-Shot: Watching Over the Guardian

A little one-shot (First-Person Point of View) related to the BMC Miraculous Ladybug AU ( @pika-ace )

((takes place during the Adventure Arc; a few days after this comic )

We entered our hotel room after what felt like HOURS just waiting for Joe to finally get out of the hospital, and we were all SO worried about him, the injuries he had were VERY fatal. Gashes, scratch marks, bruises, and lots of blood pouring out, his life was literally hanging between life and death when me and Jeremy found him. But now he has to deal with having stitches in his body for a while, but before then, Joe needs to heal, FULLY, we can't just let him off the hook once the stitches come off, he needs to heal, regardless on what he says. I look back at Jordan, Jeremy, and Michael, who were helping Joe walk inside; i could hear faint yelps coming from Joe, struggling to keep his legs on the ground. I'm willing to bet that this is his first time going to the hospital, or the very least, having to go through surgery, cause the way he's acting now concerns me, not just the way he handles the aftermath, but also his behavior, i remember when we were walking out of the hospital, Joe tried to act the same as always but.....i noticed his voice was a little shaky. But he tried to brush it off and tried to act calm as always, but i think he's hiding his true feelings on the whole experience, and i know for a fact that you can't just brush off something like that.

Jeremy looked up at him and asked, "Joe? Can you walk by yourself?"

Joe slowly nodded, "Y-Yes....i think i can...."

They let him go and he started to walk on his own, the stumbled a bit, almost had a heart attack when he leaned a bit too far, but he managed to walk normally. I walk up to him and ask with concern, "Are you sure you can keep your balance?" and he simply nodded back at me, "D-Don't worry Eric, i can assure you that i'm fine...."

Jordan spoke up, changing the subject a bit, "Well, we better start hitting the hay pretty soon cause it's getting kinda late." I looked at the clock and it said 10:32, it's indeed late into the night. Jeremy yawned, "Yeah....i'm getting kinda tired...."

I looked around at the group and said, "Okay, since Joe just came out of the hospital, he's sleeping in the other room." Jordan looked at me, "You do realize that it'll get a bit crowded in there?" He said, "I know, that's why you're gonna sleep with the boys." I responded.

Jeremy and Michael look up at Jordan and gave these weird looks, possibly not feeling a bit comfortable having an adult with them. I rolled my eyes and sighed, "Just bare with it for now, we weren't exactly prepared for a fifth guest after all." I looked at Joe, kinda wincing from his pain but still keeping his head high.

"Ugh.....fine. We'll bare it." said Jeremy, sounding kinda annoyed.

Jordan wrapped his arms around the two with a bright smile i always known him to have, "Hey c'mon now! I won't bother ya that much! You'll just have some support if either one of ya has a nightmare!"

Ah Jordan, he always has that upbeat attitude, plus he doesn't mind being with others, as long as they're not mean. And considering Jordan sometimes tosses and turns whenever he sleeps, Michael and Jeremy better be prepared to hang on to their bed sheets.

Jeremy looks at me with concern, "Wait, so you're sleeping with Joe tonight?" I nodded in agreement, "Yes, i am."

"But ain't that-"

"I-I know, but he needs someone to be there for him after everything that happened." i said, confidently.

"You're.....willing to do that for me?" I look and i see Joe looking at me with a surprised look, "Y-You're too kind Eric....you really are."

I smiled back, "I know."

(a few minutes later)

I walk into the bedroom and i see Joe sitting on the bed, and from the looks of it, he probably found a t-shirt that i had in my luggage and hung up his clothes. Still  very surprised that those same clothes that I've seen him wore for almost two years now stayed the same. No stains, no scratches, no wear-outs, nothing. It's just the same pure clothes, makes me wonder if the clothes themselves cannot be destroyed regardless on what happens to it. God, if whatever material made it was mass produced, that would revolutionize clothing as a whole. But i guess even that has to be secret huh? I also noticed something else, he was hugging himself, his head was hanging low, and i noticed he was trying to cover some of the stitches with his hands, was....he scared? I won't be surprised if it was the case, but.....i guess he doesn't know i'm even in the room.

"Joe?"

He jumped and looked at me with shocked eyes, "Uh....E-Eric! You're dressed?" he said, with that same shaky tone i heard him with back at the hospital.

"Yeah." I sat down on the bed and looked at him, "Are you sure you're okay?"

"Y-Yes yes! I am! It's just...." He looks at me, "I.....never had anyone else be right next to me like this....."

I layed down and smiled at him, "Don't worry, it won't be awkward, trust me."

He layed down too, looking right at me as he covered himself with the sheets, "You sure Eric? I don't want to-"

"It'll be fine, trust me."

Joe nods and just closes his eyes, he looks so calm even in his sleep, guess that's how he is. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.....

....And then i woke up just an hour later. I didn't knew why but i this tight feeling just squeezed me awake. I looked around and noticed that someone was wrapping their arms around me. I looked back and saw.....Joe? He was clinging on to me very tightly, his hands were clinging on to my shirt so tightly that he was pulling it in the palm of his hands, his face was buried on my back, and i could hear faint sobbing too. I.....honestly never saw Joe like this at all, he's usually the straight man in any kind of situation, sure i saw him showing some anger from time to time but.....not fear. I never saw Joe look this scared before, and now that i think about it.....he's also shaking as well. That crash landing and the whole surgery must've scared him, a lot. I.....just wanna make sure he's okay....

I whispered loud enough for Joe to hear me, "....Joe? Joe!"

I shook a little, possibly to wake him up, but it didn't. He is definitely in a nightmare of sorts, and whatever he's seeing is scaring him half to death.

I shook again, this time a bit more force was put into it, "Joe!" I shouted quietly.

Suddenly, i felt his hands immediately come off of my chest, that must've woke him up. I turned around and....my god...i feel so bad for Joe....not only have i seen Joe scared, but also.....i haven't seen Joe cry before. His eyes were covered in his tears and his breathing sounded a little raspy.

"Eric....I-I do appologize.....I-I...." He hugged himself again, just like before, "....I....never...show these kinds of emotions to.....anyone...."

I slightly get up and looked at him, "Why? Why try to hide your emotions?"

He looked away for a bit and then he looked at me, "Throughout my life, i am seen as the guardian of the Miraculous, wise and knowledgeable of all that they do. And so i try to keep up that reputation of being that, the wise guardian." He starts to tear up, "B-But.....if they see me showing emotions like.....fear and sorrow....they'll think i'm weak!" He started to cry after he said that.

He scoot up towards him so i would be close, "Hey hey, don't say that! It's okay to show those emotions!"

I brushed my hand on the side of his head, helping him calm down. He looks at me, eyes still covered in tears, "N-No....it's not! It just shows how weak you are! I'm....i'm not weak! I can't...."

"Showing fear and sorrow isn't a weakness Joe!"

He stares at me, honestly this is the first that Joe is actually listening to me like this, but i feel like this is necessary to say.

"It's a part of us, just the same as happiness and anger! We can feel and express those emotions in our own way! Trust me, i know what it feels like to hide all of those emotions from people! Every year, when the day of my son's death comes, i just completely crash down into tears cause he was the best thing to ever come to my life....and it was taken away from me by death's hands!" I started to feel myself tearing up too, but i continued forward regardless, "I never let anyone see me like this, the only person that knew of my loss was Jordan, because he knows what i went through on that day."

I wiped away the tears that were forming in my eyes, "But....when me....and Jeremy found out about our losses when we revealed each other's identity......we just let it all out. All the pain, misery, sorrow, all of those emotions that we had built up for years, and we both had no regrets on doing so. Because when humans are in that situation where all of those emotions are addressed by someone who cares about them, they let those emotions out, express it in anyway they can. And that is something you're avoiding, isn't it?"

Joe nods and i put my hands on his shoulders, staring at his eyes, "I can assure you, it's okay. It's fine that you show your negative emotions to people, they won't think you're weak if they understood what you went through. And i understand why you feel like this."

"Y-You do?"

"I do Joe, i really do." I released my hands from his shoulders and looked at him, "You can express it on me, i won't judge you for anything that you do."

Joe stares at me with his eyes starting to tear up, then he leaps onto me into a tight hug, burying his face on my chest as he sobs loudly. I stare down at him and  sighed, the poor man has been through a lot. Not just for these past few days, but possibly his entire lifetime, he's probably seen people he cares and loves for pass away like dust and yet here he stands today. He needs someone to comfort him, or the very least, teach him that it's okay to express said emotions. And i'm glad i  became one like that. I slowly layed down while keeping Joe close to me, i petted his hair as a slowly fell asleep.

Joe.....i'm so glad that you're still alive with us. We wouldn't know what to do without you.
