#I mean they’re just a dog.. cat.. fox.. thing and they love you

[cryptids-lobelia-garden]

I managed to pull this together in the middle of an Absolutely Horrible work day! Yay! (Writing this is probably part of what got me out of a stress and caffeine induced panic attack) Unfortunately I didn’t get it edited on time to post on time, but Hey! It Exists :D Anyway, people should write more characters having autism shutdowns. It’s very frustrating being barely able/unable to talk (I am autism btw)

Anyway, this one’s very environmental. I feel like the timespace distortions in PLA could have been a LOT more horrifying, and I’m here to deliver! Warnings: animal attack (again), uuuuhh what do you call this.. time and space are being bent and torn around him and it is some sort of cosmic horror or something idk what that term means exactly I just know it’s what comes to mind, but uuuh yeah this one’s kinda tame actually.

All of mine so far have been pretty tame, let’s be honest. I promise I can write other stuff we just haven’t gotten to the Good Stuff I Have Planned yet

Day 5: Reckless

Takes place some time after the battle atop Mount Coronet. (After day 4 of this event, far before day 3, which happened before days 1 and 2)

~~~~~

Volo should have known this would happen when a strange energy started to fill the air. He should’ve known this would happen when sparks started to fly.

He thought he had more time before it did, thought he could pick a few more berries from this tree and run.

He should’ve known better than to test his fate, especially in a distortion that he had indirectly caused. Arceus has a sense of humor, after all, and Volo is no stranger to the cruelty that fate seems to love to bring him.

Scents from past and future flow into the air, and he can hardly breathe, stumbling as the ground morphs and shifts under him. One moment, he’s standing on the grassy hill, and the next, a structure he doesn’t understand appears out of nowhere, trapping him inside.

He scrambles his way out a window and brings his fingers to his mouth, whistling as loud as he can.

But Toge doesn’t come. She can’t hear him in the storm.

I could die here.

The realization sends chills down his spine.

He’s been confronted by his own mortality plenty of times in his life. It’d be a surprise to hear someone hasn’t, really, in a world as dangerous, as cruel as this one. Wild Pokémon attacks that aren’t immediately deadly can still be incredibly dangerous later, after all, and there’s a myriad of other dangers in this world.

Volo happens to be particularly good at getting himself into bad situations, and fate has always seemed to be especially cruel to him. He’s faced death plenty of times.

But it’s never felt so close.

He could run from murderers and wild Pokémon. He managed to strike a deal with Giratina when they met, he learned everything he could forage so he would never starve, he had even escaped the wrath of a particularly powerful zoroark, which is an impressive feat, considering the fact that even the normal zoro put plenty of people on the death toll.

But he can’t run from this. Not when he can’t breathe and the ground itself doesn’t seem to work as it should, flickering in and out of existence at the drop of a hat.

He curses himself for his stupidity as a terrified steelix shrieks, a sound like boulders tumbling down a mountain. It’s moving too quickly to see where it’s going, barreling straight towards Volo.

He just manages to dodge out of the way, ducking and rolling behind a tree- but an electric attack hits him, and he shrieks as his whole body jolts from it, falling to his knees.

It’s hard to move, he’s shaking, his muscles are spasming.

He can’t run.

Paralyzed.

I’m going to die here.

Something falls into his hands, a strange device. Some sort of bracelet, with a thick, flat face.

It lights up as he touches it.

He frantically presses back against the tree as an alpha raichu steps forward, holding the strange device up.

He’s about to move to throw it in desperation-

And then something he touches on it creates a shield of pink and blue energy, surrounding him just as the raichu tries to hit him with a Thunder.

He can breathe.

Volo scrambles to his feet, catching his breath. “Is this- some sort of shield..?” It moves with him as he walks- no? It’s moving with the device.

He scoops it off the ground, shaking his limbs out to try to get the rest of the electric attack out of his system, and he sprints towards the outside of the distortion, carrying the device with him. The ground materializes beneath his feet, holding steady even as it breaks around him, and he thanks fate for finally giving him something good.

Some attack hits the shield, and he yelps as he’s thrown, but he isn’t hurt by anything except his own bad landing. Scrambling back to his feet, he runs the rest of the way out, jumping through to the outside of the bubble of distorted land just as the timespace storm starts to swirl.

Terrified pokemon shriek as they’re swept into it. Volo nearly throws up as he sees human remains inside, swirling with the rest.

And, in a flash, all of it is gone, leaving no sign of what just happened but specks of shimmering pink dust, floating softly to the ground.

He’s in a cold sweat, shaking as he stares at where he was almost swept away. The trio would RUN INTO these. For FUN, to collect the things inside.

What the HELL is wrong with them!?

He takes a few shaky breaths, collapsing to his hands and knees. The device makes a clicking sound as it wraps around his hand, but he pays it no mind for now.

Okay.

Okay, I’m okay. I’m alive. I’m okay.

..I have nobody to blame for that except myself. I shouldn’t have stayed when the storm started to gather. And for what, a few handfuls more of berries? That wasn’t worth the risk!

He stares at the strange device, which has moved to his wrist. There’s numbers on the front, though he’s not sure what they’re for.

It’s a miracle I made it out. And it’s because of this wondrous device..

It’s locked itself around his wrist somehow. He can’t see the locking mechanism- it looks like a clean band, aside from the face. The only sign as to its origin is some strange lettering on the side, though he doesn’t really recognize the characters. He knows he’s seen them somewhere before, though.

With some experimentation, he figures out he can move the device up and down his arm, but he can’t take it off. It’s comfortable no matter where it is, fitting perfectly to his skin, but it won’t go over his hand, despite obviously having the capability of doing so.

Fascinating..

Okay, he’ll deal with that later. He stands, making his way back to the little camp he’s set up.

He’s still feeling a little stiff with the after effects of a fairly mild electric attack paralysis, but he’s not too hurt- he must’ve not been hit too bad, thankfully.

Volo sits at camp, dumping out his bag and counting the supplies he’s managed to gather.

If he finds a way to preserve the food, what he has gathered today will be enough for a few days. So the progress towards what he and his Pokémon need to survive the winter is slow, but it is progressing.

The extra berries he grabbed are enough for two extra meals for Toge, so there’s that, at least.

Was it worth the risk? No, not in the slightest. Not when he can easily gather that safely.

But does it make him feel a little better about it?

Absolutely.

He looks up as a shadow falls over him, quickly moving to catch Toge as she flies into his chest. “Hey!”

She squeaks happily, shaking her bag- and that’s the sound of a bunch of apricorns. He can also see the leaves of a few different edible plants and medicinal herbs sticking out.

Volo smiles, cuddling her close. “Thank you, sweetheart,” he murmurs, burying his face in her feathers with a quiet sigh. “I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

PARADOX DETECTED

A young woman leans over to look at the alert, brushing curly red hair out of her eyes. “Oh! Well, that explains where he got his watch.. That is a dangerous paradox, wow. Very lucky it didn’t break anything. Dialga must have helped..” She sighs, tapping a few buttons on her watch and sending a quick message to Management. “..Dragons. I need to figure out how Eclipse got it off so I can update the security systems.. What a bother.”

Ikepri: Chibi Pet Shop

Emma: One Leon please! *Holds Leon lion chibi tenderly in her arms*

Sales Clerk: Ah, a classic choice. Can I interest you in other chibi selections?

Emma: Oh no, I love my Leon, he’s—wait, what’s that? *Ears perk at nearby loud barking*

Sales Clerk: Hmm, the dogs are fighting again. *The Rio beagle and Silvio Dalmatian chibis circle each other, growling*

Emma: Shouldn’t you stop them?

Sales Clerk: Oh, they LOVE each other! *Silvio has Rio in a headlock, Rio whimpering and yelling “OW ARF OW!”*

Sales Clerk: You know, Silvio comes with a bejeweled collar. Included with purchase.

Emma: No thanks. One Leon please. *Lion Leon nuzzles Emma’s hand affectionately*

Sales Clerk: You like affectionate pets? Jin the Eagle would be wonderful!

*A green cloth materializes out of nowhere from Leon. He covers Emma’s chest protectively while shaking his head*

Emma: Aw, thanks Leon! I was getting kinda cold here!

Sales Clerk: Man, where does that lion keeping finding those green flags?

Emma: Anyways…Eagles are very majestic and awesome but they’re not my thing. Plus, you know, talons aren’t exactly cuddly.

Sales Clerk: You like cuddly? How about cats?

Emma: You mean like the LION here in my arms?

Sales Clerk: *Ignores Emma’s comment* Now where’s that sweet little Yves kitty I can show you….Here kitty, kitty, kitty…

*Sales Clerk walks around the store and nearly falls into a gapping hole in the ground. A cat hisses from the bottom of the pit, tail bristling. Licht the wolf is also in the pit, silently watching Yves*

Sales Clerk: CLAVIS! *A pair of golden eyes glow from atop a cabinet. The purple leopard smiles and flees, laughing*

Sales Clerk: Umm, do you like troublemakers? That leopard comes with a set of nets and shovels too, free of charge.

*Leon Lion jumps out of Emma’s arms and ties a number of green flags end to end into a makeshift rope. Yves kitty and Licht wolf climb up and walk away. Emma crouches down to pick the Lion back up, ruffling his mane*

Emma: I’m sure that leopard’s GREAT and all but—

Sales Clerk: TIGERS. We got premier tigers. Cream of the crop. VERY popular. Look at this white tiger! *Points to a majestic Chevalier tiger chibi, elegantly sitting in a chair reading*

Sales Clerk: And this tiger has EXTENSIVE documentation on his background and where he came from. Very detailed and thorough.

Emma: Yeah, I meant to ask about documentation. See, Leon only has a single page with the word “ROAR” on it. Do you have ANYTHING else regarding his background? Lore?

Sales Clerk: He’s a Lion.

Emma: How about what he likes?

Sales Clerk: Of course! *Hands Emma a single paper with “MEAT” on it*

Emma: Seriously?

*A black Tiger chibi with an eye patch slinks next to Emma. He puts something in Emma’s hand, grinning*

Sales Clerk: Oh, Gil LIKES you!

Emma: Ummm, this tiger just handed me a piece of paper with my address, last three jobs, and a list of all my allergies and food preferences. Has he been following me?!

Sales Clerk: He REALLY likes you!

Emma: Good for him! But I want—

Sales Clerk: Foxes? Snakes? How about a nice stag?

Emma: I don’t get it. Leon’s your poster boy. He’s LITERATELY on a poster on your front door. Why are you trying to get me to prefer other chibis?

Sales Clerk: *Blinks*

Sales Clerk: So, can I interest you in Gil—

Emma: NO! No eyepatches, no puppy butlers, no lone wolves, no tricks or traps! No blushy tsunderes, no salty dogs, no cold beasts!

Emma: ONE. LEON. PLEASE.

Sales Clerk: OK FINE.

Emma: THANK YOU.

*Sales clerk rings up purchase*

Sales Clerk: Oh, here’s your complementary bag of green flags. Leon goes through a lot of them.

Charred Legacy: Chapter Sixteen

(AO3 counterpart here.)

Would the humans never go away?

Fireheart had to admit to his own building frustration as each night had the same answer to if the Clan could go back home: they could not, because the cars and humans were still in the forest. Each announcement from whoever scouted over the moorland elicited a louder and louder communal groan. They could all be grateful for the warm air in the Barn as the slush became snow that did not touch their temporary home, but even that was thinning their patience with how stuffy it could get.

What was also thinning quickly was the rodent population in the Barn. Every night it became steadily more challenging to find a mouse—the wisest of them had hid all this time and were not inclined to be discovered just because there was more room for them to wander. Granted, the added difficulty wore out the apprentices and warriors quicker, giving them all something to spend their energy on. Though, as Fireheart thought with every meal, he’d love to spend that energy on finding a mole or bird.

Bluestar and Speckletail allowed cats to walk around outside after the wrestling between apprentices got too loud and frequent, with the caveat that apprentices were to stay with a warrior at all times. To Fireheart’s disappointment, the kits were not included, and the two litters were stuck inside as the rest of the Clan got to explore the farmland.

“I’m sorry, little guy,” Fireheart said to Cloudkit as he prepared to go out with Greystripe. “I wish I could take you with me.”

Cloudkit, to his credit, did not pout about it as much as he could have. He just looked at the ground with a sigh.

Fireheart gave him a friendly nudge with a paw. “I’ll try to find something fun to bring back for you and your siblings. Is that alright?”

The fluffy kit perked up a little and nodded. “‘Kay. Make it really fun.”

Fireheart used the same paw to ruffle his nephew’s head-fur. “I’ll do my best.”

Bramblekit came up beside Cloudkit, glancing at Bluestar as she flinched walking by him. “What kinda fun will it be?” 

Fireheart ignored the look on Bluestar’s face and said, “It’s a surprise. Try to guess before I come back.” 

He turned and trotted away, catching up to Greystripe, and the pair strode off to the Barn’s right.

“I feel bad for the kits,” Greystripe said, shaking a snowflake off of his nose. “If I’m bored, I can only imagine how they’re doing.”

Fireheart opened his mouth and caught a snowflake of his own, taking a pause to marvel at the ice turning to water on his tongue before answering. “And even if they could go outside, there’s not much to do here. I mean, I know we kind of do the same thing every day at home, but…”

“We get to at least travel all over the place wherever we choose,” Greystripe replied. “And we do it a lot—hunting or marking borders or chasing off foxes—which means the nights we get to stay home and relax are so much sweeter, don’t you think?”

“You have a point.” Fireheart’s paw scraped at the very, very thin layer of snow on the ground. “I hope the humans leave soon.”

Greystripe grumbled, “They better. I don’t even know what they think they’re doing in there. The fire’s out.”

“I still think they’re looking for the dogs.”

“For this long? And they wouldn’t have caught them by now?”

“Well…” Fireheart started, before his eyes drifted over to a pair of cats ahead and to the left. “Ask him.”

“Get him to argue your point for you, sure,” Greystripe said with a friendly (restrained) nudge, and then called, “Hey, Ravenwing!”

Their friend looked up from watching Snowpaw pat and scoop at the snow and frozen earth. “Oh, hi. Where are you two going?”

“Just seeing if there’s anything out here that isn’t a mouse.” Greystripe led the way up to him. “Is this a new training tactic?”

Ravenwing gave Greystripe a dry look. “He’s exploring snow for the first time.”

Snowpaw seemed to just now notice the older toms. He straightened up and gestured with a twitch of his fur, something that Fireheart faintly remembered to mean “cold”, to which he nodded. He used a paw to point to Snowpaw and then to the white-dappled ground: that’s you. Snowpaw gleefully nodded back and scooped at the snow again, pulling it towards him in a molehill-lump.

“I’m glad that he’s enjoying himself,” Greystripe said, giving the little tom a fond look.

“Well!”

Eyes turned to Barley, round and smelling like strange meat, as he trotted over to them from the direction of the house. His patched fur, short though it was, flared out merrily.

“That’s the first time I’ve seen a cat like the snow,” he continued. “I sure hope he doesn’t get tired of it—he’s perfect for hunting in this weather.”

Ravenwing huffed a short chuff and turned to his apprentice again. “He’s going to need that coat, yeah. Hunting outside of the Barn is tough enough as it is.”

Barley blinked, then caught on and sighed sympathetically. “Ah, you’ve gotten the fever. Sick of mice, I take it?”

“A little,” Greystripe said. “Isn’t there anything else out here?”

“Well, sort of, but you don’t have to hunt it.” Barley turned around, gesturing with his tail for the warriors to follow.

Ravenwing nudged Snowpaw, getting his attention again, and was the first to go after Barley. Fireheart and Greystripe walked together, and Fireheart frowned as he sniffed the scent coming off of the loner.

What is that? he thought, narrowing his eyes. I could swear I’ve smelled it before…

He got his answer quickly, when Barley took a turn and trotted for a pair of dishes on the outside wall of the Barn. One dish had kibble in it, and the other had several slabs of pale meat. They were raw and fresh, and they smelled so familiar…

“Chicken!” Barley announced proudly. He took a step back, clearing the path to the food. “I only had one chunk myself. By all means, have at.”

Fireheart chanced a look at his friends, predicting their stunned and revolted faces.

“This is from your humans, isn’t it?” Greystripe said, grimacing. “There’s no way I’m eating that.”

Snowpaw tapped Ravenwing and signaled ‘prey’, tilting his head. Ravenwing shook his and said to Barely, “Er, we appreciate the offer, but… I think we’d all prefer natural-caught food.”

Barley, surprisingly, did not look remotely bothered. He rolled a broad shoulder. “Ah, well. I thought I’d offer. Didn’t want it to go to waste. Surely someone’s hungry enough to eat this, though.”

Fireheart thought for a moment. “Greystripe, help me bring some of this to the kits. They won’t mind it’s not mouse.”

“Seriously?” Greystripe squinted at his friend.

“Seriously,” Fireheart said breezily, and maneuvered past Barley to chomp down on a rather thick slab of meat, pulling it away from the bowl. He didn’t wait for Greystripe, just trotted off back in the direction of the doorway, not wanting to admit that the taste of the chicken was good enough to almost make him eat it himself. Going by the surprised noise Greystripe made, he had the same reaction.

Ravenwing and Snowpaw trailed behind as Fireheart entered the Barn, Greystripe now at his side. He called wordlessly and dropped the meat down at his paws, which Greystripe copied, and waved his tail in greeting as the kits waded through and around a pile of hay to investigate, Goldenflower behind them.

“Got a special treat for you, kits!” Fireheart said cheerfully. “Are you hungry?”

A few squeaks of eagerness, and Cloudkit led the charge as they crowded around the chicken and started biting into it without even sniffing it. Fireheart purred, watching their tails wag.

“What is this, honeymouse?” Goldenflower circled the kits and greeted Fireheart with a headbump. “It doesn’t smell like anything I know.”

“Barley’s humans threw out some extra meat for him,” Fireheart said, and just as she opened her mouth, he added, “I know, it’s from humans, but he’s not going to eat it all and it’d be silly to let food go to waste in winter.”

Goldenflower shut her mouth again with a sigh through her nose, though her eyes were affectionate. “Very well, then.”

“’Wh’zi?” Cloudkit asked, chomping on a chunk.

“It’s called ‘chicken’,” Fireheart replied. “It’s a meat only kittypets eat, because it’s given to them.”

Cloudkit’s rich blue eyes widened, surprised and intrigued. He swallowed his mouthful. “You mean they don’t hunt for food?”

“Right. They just eat what they get.” Fireheart caught the start of a grimace on Goldenflower’s face and hurriedly added, “But their food isn’t very good anyway. It’s way better to hunt.”

Cloudkit hummed thoughtfully as he took another bite.

“Well, at least they have something to distract them,” Brindleface said sleepily, yawning as she came around the corner to join the kits and matriarch. “Don’t tell Dustpelt you got them this, he’ll be furious.”

“About what?” Swiftpaw asked as he popped up around the outside of the door, trotting in with Lizardtail and nearly bumping into Ravenwing just ahead of them. When Fireheart gestured to the kits, he had a briefly confused look at what they were eating before saying, “Oh, yeah, don’t tell him about that. Barley offered me some of that stuff earlier, actually.”

“He didn’t take it,” Lizardtail said, in a tone like that was something to be proud of.

Fireheart decided not to comment on that, instead asking, “Did you go out to hunt too?”

Swiftpaw grumbled a sigh. “And there wasn’t anything out there.”

Lizardtail looked at his apprentice humorously, saying to Fireheart, “He’s trying to prove he’s ready for his assessment.” He tapped Swiftpaw with his tail. “Apparently, catching a lot of prey is the qualifier.”

“Something’s gotta be!” Swiftpaw gave his mentor a frustrated scowl. “You even said yourself that it’s about time for me to get my name! I know we’re not at home, but for crying out loud…!”

“Easy, easy.” Lizardtail gave a ‘quiet’ gesture with his paw. “Your sister doesn’t have a name either.”

“And it’s time for her, too!”

“Well, sometimes seer apprentices take longer.”

Swiftpaw grumbled again. Fireheart watched as his paws tip-tapped and his claws poked at the hard ground. Even with the appearance of mere eagerness to get his name, his jaw was clicking a bit and his tail-fur stuck out.

You just want a distraction while you’re not at home, Fireheart thought sympathetically.

“We’re all a little frustrated and bored,” he said aloud. “I get it. I’d love to see Swiftpaw get his name here, honestly. Think of that: he’d be the only cat in ThunderClan to have his ceremony where humans could see.”

Lizardtail’s lip twitched in distaste. “They better not peep in. We’ve been lucky that they haven’t bothered us.”

“Oh, they looked in here,” Goldenflower said, and though her voice was gentle as ever, her claws sank into the straws. “Earlier, when you all were gone.”

“They didn’t come in, at least,” Brindleface said. “Just looked and then left.”

Greystripe finally spoke up with a snort. “Hey, Swiftpaw, maybe your assessment can be chasing the humans away.”

“I could totally do that.” Swiftpaw chuffed even with the overly confident tone. “They’d see skinny old me and pelt it for their house.”

“You’re not that skinny anymore,” Lizardtail said, gently pushing at Swiftpaw’s side. “Ravenwing is way thinner than you. And you’re not fighting any humans.”

“I could fight Terror right now,” Swiftpaw said, nudging Lizardtail back. “A human’s nothing for an assessment.”

“What’s Terror?” Ashkit asked, lifting his head from what remained of the chicken.

“Oh—” Swiftpaw looked down at him, calming down immediately. “It’s a spirit. Uh, a scary one. It shows up as the most frightening thing you can imagine. Kind of a test, I think.”

“Ohhhh,” Ashkit said, blinking blankly. He tilted his head. “Why’s it test you?”

“A ‘test’ is a way to put it, I guess,” Ravenwing said, adding to Ashkit, “In stories, a lot of cats have to face it down and overcome their fear to continue on their quest. It could be a monster, or a Titan, or a human, or an owl. Whatever scares you the most, it sees, and it turns itself into.”

Aspenkit mumbled something nervously, but Ashkit puffed out his chest. “Well, I’m not afraid of nothing. I can fight it!”

Brindleface nosed his ear. “You don’t fight Terror, baby. You just have to be very brave and stand your ground.”

Tawnykit squinted. “That doesn’t sound very hard.”

“It’s harder when it’s the thing that scares you the most,” Ravenwing said, and gave a dark imitation of Yellowfang’s smirk, muttering seemingly to himself, “I’d love to see my Terror. Big stupid ball of judgement.”

Greystripe bumped his head on Ravenwing’s shoulder. “You’re lucky the thing doesn’t exist, then.”

“It totally exists!” Swiftpaw exclaimed, looking shocked. “Why else would we have stories about it?”

“RiverClan’s got poems about talking squirrels,” Greystripe scoffed. “You don’t say those are real.”

“RiverClan’s dumb,” Swiftpaw said, missing Fireheart’s instant frown. “But everyone talks about Terror. WindClan, ShadowClan, everyone. It’s real.”

“I see it every day,” Ravenwing murmured to Fireheart.

Fireheart turned his head away from watching Greystripe and Swiftpaw argue to whisper back, “I don’t think you see it as much as you used to.”

Ravenwing opened his mouth like he was about to make another sardonic remark, then closed his mouth and turned his eyes to Snowpaw, who was sniffing at the remains of the chicken.

“No,” he said quietly. “I don’t. You’re right.”

Warmth—pride, really—bloomed in Fireheart’s chest and he mimicked Greystripe’s headbump to Ravenwing’s other shoulder. “You’re like a whole new cat these days, you know that? It’s amazing.”

Ravenwing made a very soft and calm version of a splutter. “I don’t know…”

“Would you, as an apprentice, have been able to even try and talk to Snowpaw, much less teach him anything?” Fireheart said. “Or tell a story to everyone in the Clan? Or…”

Or expose murders in a trial?

Fireheart swallowed that thought. “Or anything, really? You were too afraid to even talk to Greystripe when I met you.”

He gauged Ravenwing’s eyes, which had turned contemplative. His face was completely serene—something Fireheart didn’t think he’d ever see in his life.

“I just mean to say I’m proud of you,” he added. “We all are, but me and Greystripe especially.”

Ravenwing twitched his whiskers, his eyes still on his apprentice, tussling with Cloudkit.

“Thanks,” he said, and purred under his breath.

Warnings: NSFW! Mistress, mentions of breeding; etc…

Pronouns: she/her AFAB

Synopsis: A chapter from my story on aO3 “Day Job”

Word count: 2K!

Note: unedited + unproof read

On aO3 as Cyfics

————————————

You handed the boys each of their specially picked out collars and awaited their reactions! You handed the first one to Shoto “wow this is.. really beautiful, thank you Mistress.” Shoto bowed his head at you and accepted the gift “I’ve told you before Shoto! You can just call me Y/n.” You reached out and pet his head.

Shoto blushed shyly from the contact, head lowered as he continued to stare at the gift in his hands. He wasn’t sure how to feel right now but he knew that he felt good, it felt right to him for you to give him gifts and spoil him like this. “Alright Mistress Y/n.” You sighed, hopefully one day he’d learn.

“Me next me next!” Eijiro bounced in place as he awaited impatiently, you gave a small smile before holding it out to him. Eijiro snatched the crimson collar from your hands and immediately put it on himself to showcase to Katsuki! “Look at me! It’s red!” Eijiro was elated.

“Whatever shitty hair, where’s mine?” Katsuki brushed Eijiro off and bumped him as he held his hand out expectedly. “D-Don’t be impolite Kacchan..” Izuku held softly onto his bunny ears and glanced away “Whatever I’ll do what I want.

Hand the collar over lady.” You quickly chucked the collar to him so he wouldn’t be upset with you much longer.

“Camouflage?” He started to inspect it, it looked as if he thought it was distasteful “I can get you a different one if you’d like-“ you began to offer “No! I’m wearing it and it’s mine!” Katsuki shouted before quickly running off and putting it on “Very manly bro!” Eijiro shifted into his dog form and began to chase after Katsuki in the next room.

Denki sniffed at your arm to remind you he was there, you chuckled at his actions before gently passing over the special collar you got him “sweet! This is awesome, thank you Y/n!” He put it on excitedly before running away in Fox form, he probably didn’t want anyone to steal his precious shiny collar.

“And for you, Izuku.” You showed him the pretty dainty green collar from the store and his eyes went wide, his whole face brightened and he quickly took it off your hands. You watched as he put it on and immediately softened in place, it looked like he was melting. “I love it! It’s perfect! Thank you Y-Y/n!” Izuku shifted on each foot.

“Y/n, I don’t mean to be a bother but my fur coat hasn’t had a comb in a while.” Shoto crossed his arms and glanced at you, you were a bit surprised “oh I apologise Shoto! I could grab a brush for you?” You asked him. You watched as Shoto’s face darkened, he gasped softly and looked away from you “O-Of course Mistress Y/n.” He had never stammered before.

His words and even stature were all perfect so why now did he look disheartened? “Y/n! You’re making him do it himself?” Izuku looked as if he had just watched you kill someone “Am I not supposed to? I apologise Shoto I thought that you’d prefer to do it on your own!” You exclaimed “if a hybrid suggests grooming to their owner they’re trusting the owner to do it for them!” Izuku explained like a little nerd.

“It’s alright Mistress really, you don’t need to trouble yourself.” Shoto walked off to his self assigned bedroom which he hadn’t even began to decorate yet, all of his decorations continuing to sit out in the car. You ran after him feeling guilty, following close behind him up the stair way “Shoto! I didn’t mean to upset you!” You apologised.

You stood in the doorway of Shoto’s room, remembering the *only* important thing that your father had told you about his animals. If they have a self assigned space then you need to ask permission before entering, you huffed as you tried to catch your breath. Shoto was sulking with his knees against his chest under the covers.

“Shoto! Could I come in please?” It took a moment for him to respond “Yes Mistress.” You slowly made your way inside, the room was mainly empty except for his bed and dresser which also was empty. You sat on the edge of Shoto’s bed and frowned “Shoto I’m truly sorry, if you’d like I can groom your fur now?” You asked him.

“Sure..” he slowly removed his blanket off his head before crawling over and laying his head in your lap, you were quite suprised! You were sure he wanted you to groom his cat self! Shoto passed you a comb from his pocket, you weren’t sure as to where he got it but you took it from him and got to work.

You gently began to brush through his hair, his very very soft and smooth hair. You were careful as to not hurt his delicate head as you brushed any knots out, your brushing haltered for a moment when you heard a soft mewling come from under your touch. “Shoto? Are you alright?” Your question obviously flustered him.

Shoto’s face turned red and he immediately hopped up and backed up on the bed “I apologise Mistress Y/n! I didn’t mean to make such a vulgar noise in your presence!” Shoto apologised profusely “it’s alright Shoto, it was quite cute actually, come back and let me finish.” You pulled him into your arms and kept brushing him.

Every so often Shoto would mewl, hands reaching out into the air as if he was making biscuits. “Does this feel good Shoto?” You chuckled as you watched his revel in the attention “Yes Mistress!” He seemed to be getting more comfortable by the minute.

Shoto was saddened when you pulled away saying you were finished “you are?” He sat up and frowned. “I can keep patting you if you like?” You started giving him scritches from behind his ears, Shoto immediately started purring and rested his head on your shoulder.

“A-Ah Mistress. Be careful around my ears please they’re very sensitive to me.” Shoto was turning red all over now, his ears twitching under your touch. “I’m so sorry Shoto did that hurt you?” You asked with great concern “N-No, Mistress Y/n.. quite the opposite actually.” Shoto turned his head away from you bashfully.

“So it felt good?” Your eyes widened with realisation after figuring out what that meant “I’m so sorry Mistress I should’ve explained-“ you cut him off by touching his ears again. Shoto squeaked at first before relaxing into your touch and purring against you, his face nuzzled against your neck “W-Why are you..” he sighed breathlessly.

“Is this alright?” You asked him “Yes, Mistress.” Shoto nodded his head at you. You weren’t sure what was encouraging you to do this, maybe it was how cute he looked or maybe it was the fact you hadn’t been laid in months that was getting to you. “You’re such a pretty boy Shoto.” You praised him “yes, I am a pretty boy!” Shoto agreed eagerly.

Shoto sat in your lap with his knees on either side of your thighs, hands grasping your shoulders as his head resided against your neck. You felt him grow harder every moment as you were stimulating his ears “A-ah..” Shoto breathed out heavily, his hips beginning to roll against yours.

“I- I wanna breed you please..” Shoto whined. Breeding? You didn’t wanna get pregnant just yet “I’m not letting you cum inside me Shoto, if you wanna do this you’re gonna have to wear a condom.” You we’re strict telling him he couldn’t impregnate you. “Aw.. please, Mistress? I won’t ask for anything ever again!” He begged of you.

“No. Here, put this on Shoto.” Shoto was upset about it but took the condom from your fingers that you dished from out of the bottom of the mattress. Shoto eagerly started to strip for you, his top you have him coming off and onto the floor, next he started to slide down his bottoms. You watched as his tail uncurled and started swaying side to side happily.

You didn’t make Shoto wait any longer, your hands grasping at your own clothes and quickly removing them. “You’re so pretty Mistress, if there were shows for humans I’m sure you’d win them just for beauty alone.” Shoto commented as he admired your body “they do Shoto.” You smiled softly at him “You should sign up and show them this beauty..” Shoto eagerly crawled on top of you.

Your back laid up against the blankets, Shoto’s arms on either side of your head. Shoto slid his underwear off and started putting the condom on, complaining to himself about how he wanted to breed you and for you two to have little kittens together. You rolled your eyes at him light heartedly, you just couldn’t get pregnant right now.

Shoto pressed up against your entrance ready to enter but you stopped him “Shoto, you have to prep your partner first for sex! Otherwise it could seriously hurt.” You explain to him just in time. He pulls back “I apologise Mistress, I got a little ahead of myself there..” he rubs the back of his neck sheepishly as he gets between your legs.

He brings his hand up and brushes his knuckles up against your hot cunt, it was radiating heat against his hand. Shoto spread out his hand and used two fingers to start rubbing at your clit in a circular motion, eyes focused on your cunt beginning to drip with slick.

You shifted on the bed, hips unable to stop moving up against his hand. Shoto continued to flick your clit for a little while, your reactions amusing him and his antics. You were just about ready to tell him off for teasing you until he slid a finger inside of you, your hole twitching against his singular finger.

“Mistress you’re very warm inside, very wet too.” Shoto commented as he started pumping the finger inside of you, figuring out pretty easily that he could effortlessly fit in another. Now he began to pump you with his two fingers, the tips of his fingers curling up and hitting against the sweetest of spots “Ah- that feels good..” you groaned.

Shoto continued to bask in your praise and continued to happily finger your eager hole, “I- I think I’m ready for you now Shoto.” You managed to get out. Shoto was happy to hear this, immediately crawling over you and placing himself between your legs up against your dripping entrance.

Shoto slid inside with ease, halting his movements for a moment to make sure you were okay before bucking his hips up against you. Shoto’s hands moved to grab at your torso, trying to move you down against him as he thrusted upwards into you. You bit down on your lip trying not to let out any loud noises, scared of the others hearing you.

“M-Mistress..” Shoto choked out as his cock was rubbing up against your warm and inviting walls. “S-Shoto, call me Y/n please.” You wrapped your arms around his neck as he kept thrusting into you “Y/n! It feels good!” Shoto mewled “I wanna cum inside of you, pump you fill of a litter of kittens!” Shoto began moving his hips against you faster.

You didn’t stop him as his began to stutter, his legs trembling a little as he released into the condom he was wearing. Shoto tiredly flipped on top of you, trying to just be as close with you as possible for the moment “Shoto, are you alright? Did you feel safe during that?” You caressed his tired head. Shoto nodded at you and looked at you through half lidded eyes “And you, Y/n?” He asked.

“I was fine. How about we clean you up and we go back down to the others hey?” You suggested. Shoto nodded his head tiredly “I can wipe you down if you just wanna have a little nap if you want Shoto?” You asked him “Yes please Y/n..” he pulled out of you and rolled onto the side of his bed.

You took the condom off of him and disposed of it, quickly getting yourself dressed before sneaking out the door to the upstairs bathroom to grab him a warm wet rag. You returned to the sleeping boy and wiped him down, covering him with the sheets before leaving again. Making sure to come up again later to leave him a bottle of water for when he awakened.

“Hey Y/n where’ve you been! We missed you!” Denki pouts “he doesn’t speak for all of us, ey Eijiro?” Katsuki crosses his arms upon seeing you “I missed you the most!” Eijiro ran over to you and jumped in your arms “Eh- Shitty hair.. Tch” Bakugou sucked his teeth.

Elo as dogs. Who’s what?

Ooo! Okay now this is perhaps one of the most interesting asks I have ever received!

So, I’m going to assign the seven men different breeds of dogs I feel suit them the best, and I’ll assign the dogs personalities and behaviors that would resemble them to the best of my ability Tumblr-style hahaha. I’m going to create dog “OCs” and I’ll give them lore and I’ll describe how their lives are like basically.

I haven’t owned a dog before as I’m a cat person so I’m not too well versed in their personalities, but I have been around them a lot since I have family members that have them, and, I know for sure, that like us humans, they are all unique and diverse in their personalities, behaviors, and overall moods. I’m neutral to them, but I will pet and hang out with them if I get the chance. (The only breed I really like though are Pomeranians).

Jeff Lynne:

Jeff Lynne would be a miniature poodle. They’re slightly small, have fur around their round muzzles, and just look like him. (Standard poodles are more reminiscent of Brian May from Queen with their large, tall statures and long thin faces if I’m being honest lol)

This dog is very shy and quiet. Sometimes he can be finicky and moody, but that’s just because he tends to be reserved as that’s just simply how he is. Still, he’s a pretty nice and chill pet, and likes to play with tennis balls at times. For some odd reason he really, really likes music from the Beatles, Roy Orbison, and Del Shannon. He is also attracted to items that are the color blue. (All of his dog toys are blue and will growl if you give him one that isn’t blue) He hates the rain, is scared of thunder/lightning storms, and therefore he loves sunny, blue-skied days. He is also sensitive to fluorescent lights at times. He also is obsessed with model trains and is always eager to watch them go around and around. When he rides in cars, he actually enjoys getting stopped by trains and wags his tail happily as the warning lights go off, the barricades go down (if you stop at those specific types of crossings with him) and the train passes through. He dreams of riding in one someday (hopefully in trains that allow dogs haha)

Bev Bevan:

Bev Bevan would be a chocolate labrador. They are large, have wide square-shaped faces, and have brown fur. They also appear large and stocky, like Bev.

This dog is usually reserved and kind, but sometimes he can be very mischievous and likes to pull pranks. He also has a pretty deep sounding bark. He cares about his and other people and pets health, and is very protective of those he cares for. Despite his large size, he doesn’t like fighting and is usually friendly. He can be a bit ornery at times for fun though. He despises snakes and enjoys being around other large dogs. He’s also pretty friendly with dog!Jeff.

Kelly Groucutt:

Similar to Jeff, Kelly would be a poodle. But, since this individual was short in real life, and his hair was a bit shorter, he would specifically be a toy poodle—as they are smaller than miniature poodles—.

This dog is high energy. Like, very high energy. He barks a lot and moves around a lot. He has a very high pitched loud bark. He plays with dog toys all the time and loves to collect them. He likes climbing things and does what ever he can to release his never ending energy. He is super friendly and sweet and loves company. He doesn’t mean any harm and sometimes causes things to break due to his high energy levels. He is also a huge animal lover and is kind to all animals, especially foxes. A very small, lovely, and extroverted pet.

Richard Tandy:

Richard would be a golden retriever. Their fluffy golden blonde fur and reputation for being loyal just scream “Richard Tandy as a dog”.

This dog is very loyal and trustworthy. He is very well-behaved, as well as quiet, though he does have a very low pitched bark, slightly lower than dog!Bev. He usually likes being alone, and enjoys watching tv, especially sports channels. He does struggle with sports but he really likes partaking in them. Still, he is super hardworking and enjoys doing things for people. He usually has a relaxed facial expression and isn’t one to get aggressive, he is very much a hippie haha. He also likes piano music and sometimes attempts to play the piano and it’s just so endearing to watch him do that. He also likes hanging around with dog!Jeff and dog!Bev.

Mik Kaminski:

Mik would be a bearded collie. Just look at an image of Mik, and then at an image of a bearded Collie, and look back at that image of Mik and you’ll know what I’m talking about. The “beard” of the dog just reminds me of Mik’s as it’s not curly yet it’s also smoothed and curved. Also, the small, round yet slightly narrow eyes the dog breed has also remind me of Mik’s eyes for some reason.

This dog, similar to dog!Jeff, is very shy. I’d say even more shy than dog!Jeff. He’s also pretty quiet, similar to dog!Richard. He is also well-behaved and doesn’t cause any problems. He likes the sound of violin music and sometimes likes to bite the violin bow and attempt to play the violin himself. He absolutely loves being around horses and is very smart and calculating. He is very timid and gets scared easily. If you are a stranger to him, be very careful not to scare him or he’ll run away and hide. Despite their contrasting behaviors, he and dog!Kelly are best friends and love hanging out. I guess it’s because they’re both friendly towards each other.

Hugh McDowell:

Hugh McDowell would be an Irish Settler. They have long, flowing fur that reminds me of his long, slightly wavy hair style from the early 70s, and they’re also tall and thin. Their fur also has like a reddish color which reminds me of some Hugh photos where the lighting makes his hair reddish even though it’s actually a blonde-ish brown(?). They also have square shaped, defined muzzles, with far apart eyes.

This dog, like dog!Kelly, is very hyperactive. He loves running around and bites trees and plants a lot for fun. He’s also somewhat nocturnal, he enjoys staring at the night sky. He loves being wild, and sometimes knocks things down in a mischievous way. He can also get moody at times but deep down is very sweet. He also does things to make people laugh. Also, he really loves snakes, especially boas. He likes to make sure they remain safe and is protective of any snake he comes across. He’s really brave in that sense. He also gets really sad when he tries to find snakes but ends up not finding any haha. He really enjoys hanging around dog!Melvyn and dog!Mik. He also likes the color purple and enjoys wearing suits fitted for dogs lol. He also loves messing around with cellos and biting them haha. Rarely he can be seen trying to play them! But sometimes he breaks them by accident. Classical music really interests him.

Melvyn Gale:

Melvyn would be a regular collie. Just—the feathery, long, caramel colored fur of this breed with those friendly doe-eyes and the perpetual permanent smile collies have just remind me of Melvyn.

This dog is friendly. Very friendly. Unfortunately, some might think he’s overly-friendly. But who cares? He’s a really sweet dog, and just happens to be very vocal. He enjoys hugs and attention. He does bark and make noise a lot, but he doesn’t mean to irritate or annoy anyone, he just really likes to communicate verbally and loves people! He enjoys being around them and likes being their friend and socializing with them, like a stereotypical friendly dog! He loves other dogs and cats as well. He really likes hanging out with dog!Hugh and is practically his best friend. He also really likes cars and planes. He loves car rides and wants to ride on planes as well. Like dog!Hugh he also enjoys cellos and sometimes attempts to play them. He likes classical music and enjoys listening to it.

Thank you so much for this ask @stephi1is1awesome! I’m glad to broadcast my dog headcannons for ELO!

@wilbury-sam take a look at this! My dog ELO headcannons are here!

I had tried sending in my ask but tumblr decided to glitch out, said there was an error and deleted everything I had written down. :<

The only person that got hurt was the transphobic manager, I don't feel bad, especially since it was a very minor concussion and he is already better. I've applied for a few jobs, had interviews, just been waiting for a response back :<

If I remember correctly, the hair style is called a jellyfish cut? I really enjoy it, especially with fluffy hair.

Pascal is a big sweetheart, some mage got mad that his wife was swooning over Pascal when he was performing and decided to just steal Pascals voice for himself. He really didn't need to worry, though, Pascal is not attracted to women😭 but that mage is going to get jumped by Geralt and get Pascals voice back <3

Also his scars are from a bear attack when he was a child, it really was his fault because he was dumb and tried picking up a bear cub he saw when playing in the woods. Bear cub freaked out and scratched him up pretty bad. Luckily he didn't come across the mama bear. Despite this, Pascal still adores bears and still really wants to pet them :> he also loves cats very much.

-cherry/sunny

I’m not saying the manager deserves it but gods timing is always right 🤭 and I hope they get back to you soon sugar bee!!! Are you looking for barista jobs or cashier positions?

Oh yes I know what you mean!!! I’ve only seen it on pin straight hair so seeing it on curly is absolutely beautiful!

Noooo poor pascal 😭 taking someone’s voice for such a silly little thing is so cruel I hope he gets his voice back soon:(

No because I understand him!! I too would love to pet bear cubs however I’m happy we cannot do those because I think more animals should have more anatomy? Over their own bodies and by being feisty they get to have that privilege!

Side note did you know that foxes are trying to get domesticated? They’ve found it difficult to continue living in the wild so they’re acting like cats and dogs and hoping humans will take them in to feed and care for them :(

Ranking 50 Disney Dogs pt2

Ranking all (ish) the dogs from Disney according to a very scientific process averaging scores on Design (how much I like the character design) Breed Alignment (how much they look like the breed they’re going for.. or just how much like a dog), Personality (how I much I like them as a character) and if applicable , voice acting (how much I like the vocal performance. [Disney Animation theatrical releases only-- no Pixar, no straight to home video, no partially live action] Link to part 1 What you’ve been waiting for! Or what you skipped to. The top dogs! 

25. Pluto THE Disney dog! Unfairly discriminated against by his peers of core disney cast! 

24. Boris the borzoi- Lady and the Tramp He’s a borzoi! Where else are you gonna find an animated borzoi?! 

23. Colonel- One Hundred and One Dalmatians  Did you know in the sequel book Sgt Tibbs (or his book equivalent cat) is declared an “honorary dog” by Sirius the Dog Star? So you can count him as tied for this place

22. Peg- The Lady and the Tramp A design with SO MUCH personality. 

21. Little Brother- Mulan He’s just so DIFFERENT looking from all these other dogs. I suspect that--like the horses in this movie-- he’s based off a particular art style and that’s why he doesn’t quite fit with anything else even within his own movie. 

20. Perdita- One Hundred and One Dalmatians  I was going to give you her Disney Wiki picture and say something about she’s the closest thing Disney has to a 50s housewife, but instead have this super ominous Perdita statue to rule over you. Bow to your Supreme Leader Perdita, for she is housewife no longer!

19. Toby- The Great Mouse Detective The quintessential Good Boy

18. Francis- Oliver and Company He’s Shakespearean and we love that. 

17. Napoleon and Lafayette- The Aristocats  I ranked them separately. Scored them differently in various categories. And they came out to exactly the same score. Inseparable. A dynamic duo. Batman and Robin who? These are the real crimefighters. 

16.  Goofy Is Goofy identifiable as a dog if you aren’t told that he is one? I don’t know about that. But he’s GOOFY. 

15. Pongo- One Hundred and One Dalmatians Okay I promise this is the last 101 Dalmatians character. 

14. Max- The Little Mermaid He’s what we call the breeder’s standard. 

13. Chief- The Fox and the Hound Am I trying to convince you to overlook certain aspects of Chief by choosing this particular picture? Who can say. 

12. Roscoe and DeSoto- Oliver and Company I love a good villain. And Dobermans. 

11. Tito-Oliver and Company Played and drawn with every bit of manic energy that a chihuahua needs

11. (Tie) Georgette- Oliver and Company “Perfect Isn’t Easy” was doing “Fabulous” long before Sharpay Evans. 

10. Jock- Lady and the Tramp A dog who suffers no fools

9. Bolt- Bolt His biggest flaw is that John Travolta was NOT a good casting choice. Other than that he’s adorable. 

8. Nana- Peter Pan This movie may be problematic but Nana certainly isn’t. 

7. Rita- Oliver and Company This dog is wearing eye shadow. And also “Streets of Gold” is criminally underrated. 

6. Lady- Lady and the Tramp I don’t really have much to say. She’s cute. It’s a good design. She’s a good character. 

5. Trusty- Lady and the Tramp Look at that action shot. His hero moment. 

4. Tramp- Lady and the Tramp I originally had Tramp 7th and Rita 4th... did I make a mistake switching them? Tramp doesn’t sing. Tramp isn’t wearing eye shadow. But Rita doesn’t have a song about her either...

3. Stitch- Lilo and Stitch He used to be a collie before he got ran over

2. Copper- The Fox and the Hound “When you’re the best of friends *muffled sobbing* having so much fun together *louder sobbing*” 

1. Dodger- Oliver and Company He sings the best Disney song. He’s voiced by Billy Joel. He’s got a celebrity endorsement: Chris Evans named his dog after Dodger. Easily the best Disney dog. 

“But Cogentranting” you say, “ you put two dogs each for number 11 and number 17, that means there are fifty-TWO dogs on this list. The title’s a lie” and I say WRONG SIr. Clearly number 3 and number 46 (Stitch and Obby) are NOT dogs at all. So there are Fifty! And you say, “okay but there are multiple dogs for both 50 and 49.” I have no answer for this. I hang my head and shame and bid you adieu. 

[gh-woah-st-v1]

the ghouls as pokemon

with a couple that are specifically ones that would be really good nicknames 

@sphylor​ and i had a lot of thoughts yesterday lmao

Dew (fire)

so dew was 1 of the 2 that started this, and i think it sets the mood for the whole post

fennekin: both sphy and i would die for fennec fox dew, it’s only natural that dew would be fennekin. this one has superb nicknameability too

litten: there isn’t much specific reasoning for litten, but just look at the little dude. that’s dew

alolan marowak/cubone: if alolan cubone actually existed it would be perfect for dew, but alas. but in the end, both cubone and marowak fit dew pretty well so they’re both here

Dew (water)

seadra: a tiny angry seahorse? if that’s not era 3 dew idk what is

dewgong: dewgong is more specifically for the nickname since it has dew in the name, but honestly the guy’s growing on me. definitely a certain time and place where dewgong would apply, but i can see it

Rain

so i said that dew was 1 of the 2 to start this whole thing but really rain was the first

oshawott: and by rain was the first, really i mean that comparing rain to oshawott was what caused this. look at him. he and rain are one in the same. change my mind

vaporeon: rain’s frilly sleeves. water themed puppy. that’s all the explanation you need

polliwag: also more specifically a nickname, but this one hasn’t really gone past a nickname. If you aren’t convinced that polliwag is a banging nickname though, just imagine someone calling rain polliwag with the utmost affection in their voice. that’s what really drew me in

Mountain

also an earlier one, aka the only ghoul besides dew and rain that an assignment came naturally rather than me scouring the pokedex, mountain’s pokemon honestly appeal to the 2 headcanons for him (deer-like and goat-like) that i’ve seen the most

sawsbuck: so the headcanon that mountain grows different plants near his horns depending on his mood/emotion or based on if someone says a plant name has been going around a lot and sawsbuck being able to change antler decorations matches that so well. i love sawsbuck for mountain

gogoat: i mean come on. i couldn’t resist with the name. plus gogoat fits mountain visually so well? it was made for him.

Aether

i’m not gonna lie, aether was a hard one. i looked through the entire pokedex and couldn’t find one that REALLY spoke to me. but i thought about it and thought of a pretty good fit, imo

greavard: i had to think if greavard really fit for a second but with the reasoning i came to i honestly think it fits pretty well. aether’s a big, scary looking dude with a terrifying power, but he’s the biggest gentle giant ever. just like the giant ghost dog that follows you around for love and also maybe possibly sucks the life out of you

nidorino: so i originally had nidorino for omega but then i read something where omega mentored aether and taught him everything he knows, so aether got nidorino and omega, well, you can probably guess. you’ll see him in a second anyway

Swiss

trying to work out what area of pokemon i wanted to do for the multi ghouls took a minute. i wanted something that reflected a combination of elements, but also that fit their personalities, but i think i got it narrowed down pretty well

tauros: tauros is also one that doesn’t have much explanation. i just looked at it and went “yeah, that’s swiss”

luxray: so when i was thinking elementally about what types the multi ghouls would be, i figured electric went really well. it’s got the heat and burn of fire, the impetus of a storm, and natural electric currents from the ground and everything. so then i got to the big, confident, electricity cat and i mean. that fits swiss quite well

sandile: there was a little voice in the back of my head telling me that sandile is swiss. i tried ignoring it because it doesn’t really have the grandiose-ness that swiss has but in the end the voice won out. i have no reasoning. he just is

Cirrus

idk man, articuno just has very confident vibes to me and cirrus is a very confident person. they just match

Cumulus

i had 2 very different ideas for cumulus and had to let both be shown

dragonair: cumulus is very elegant and ethereal, and i feel like dragonair embodies that pretty well

wooloo: so @/thelampisaflashlight (idk if they would want to be tagged) has the concept of the ghouls having imps/imp forms, and cumulus’s is just a giant sheep-like thing. call it divine inspiration if you’d like

Sunshine

sunshine was honestly the easiest of the ghoulettes for me to pair. i already had the electric type thing established, then everything else just came naturally

mareep: like i said, i think electric types fit multi ghouls, so at this point it was just finding one that fit for sunshine’s personality. so she gets the tiny sheep. just look at it, it’s adorable

lillipup: this one from the start was both a she is lillipup and lillipup makes a fantastic nickname. yet another one with little explanation, lillipup just fits sunshine

Omega

so i said that omega was initially nidorino, but i ended up shifting it to where omega is nidoking. i think it’s a really neat parallel for omega to have the bigger/evolved version of aether’s pokemon if we’re following the mentor idea

Ifrit

i didn’t even realize until making the pictures to put each ghoul’s pokemon together, ifrit’s are all cats. really speaks to how he acts on stage

growlithe: ifrit has this kind of innocent feel about him, and i’ve seen him portrayed as more of a teenager for ghouls a lot. and growlithe is a young, innocent, bold little guy

pyroar: speaking more to the showiness of ifrit, pyroar is intense and has a tinge of flamboyance, like ifrit

torracat: i also didn’t realize until putting the pictures together that i gave ifrit the pokemon that one of dew’s evolves into. i initially gave ifrit torracat just because it seemed right, but the symbolism in that coincidence and their line of succession? borderline poetic

Alpha

i wish i had more to say reasoning wise, but houndoom is another “he just is.” both alpha and houndoom have a big presence, they’re threatening, it just makes sense

Mist

yet another it just makes sense, glaceon just IS mist. they’re small but have a lot of power and sass. i love them

[speckles-the-pupper]

1- I am a werewolf! Meaning, a human who has wolf shifts. Wolf therian is fine too, but I find werewolf to be a much cooler label

2- I am a black wolf! (which is technically a gray wolf, species-wise) While not being theriotypes to my knowledge, I also have fursonas being a bat-eared fox, dog, reindeer, sparklewolf, velociraptor, and cinereous vulture! I am also pupgender.

3- I do have shifts, which for me if the primary reason for identifying as alterhuman. I’m not sure what’s meant by “most common shifts.” My shifts don’t seem to have a trigger that I can tell. When I shift I just go wolf brain, crawling around, chewing on stuff, rolling on the floor, etc. For phantom shifts I mostly get it for my tail and fur, and sometimes my ears.

4- It actually doesn’t come up very much. The only significant thing is that I’ve started doing cardio so that wolfy can have more stamina when I shift.

5- Here on Tumblr, I’d say it’s pretty kind and inclusive! Over on TikTok though, I think there’s a huge amount of watering down going on. Such as the huge focus on gear and quads, saying things like “therians don’t actually think they’re animals” (plenty do!), and just in general lots of misinformation. I swear, the community looks so much different as an outsider, as opposed to when you get involved yourself. I just think the TikTok community is trying too hard to look normal to the non-therians to a point of watering us down. But hey, that’s just me.

6- I like to make dog treats for myself! This is the recipe I use. They’re pretty good I’d say, but nothing too sweet. Using a dog bone cookie cutter makes it twice as euphoric!

I also get euphoria from sticking my head out of the car window, chewing on my dog bone chew toy, howling at the moon, growling, laying in my dog bed, and drinking from my dog bowl! That’s a fun one to try I’d say. Drinking water by lapping it with your tongue is mega dog.

7- I actually don’t! All my disphoria is gender related. I’d say I feel human through and through, but sometimes I become a wolf. I don’t feel as though I’m a wolf in a human body. Rather, a human and a wolf together in a human body.

8- I’m not sure! I’m recently awakened myself! I guess for one, don’t feel the need to rush into things, or force yourself into a label just to finish the self reflection process. Just observe who you are to the best of your ability, and go from there!

9- I do! I have a black wolf mask I made! It’s actually made on a plastic cat mask that I’ve had for years. It used to belong to my aunt who was an artist. I’ve inherited most of her art supplies when she died, but I’ve been incredibly hesitant to use any of it since it’s so finite. However, using the mask (which has been catching dust for years) to create something that’s so important and representative of my true self feels like something she would have loved. And because of that, the mask means all the more to me! I also have a ton of fursuits, though unrelated to my theriotype.

10- Probably the autism, I’d say. Maybe trauma or something or another. I do remember concurrently as a child whenever something incredibly distressing happened, I would imagine myself as a wolf taking revenge. Like if it was a person, I would maul them in my mind. I don’t really have that anymore, and it’s possibly unrelated, but that’s the only instance of wolf behavior from when I was young. As of late, it seems to have popped up almost spontaneously.

11- I don’t know anybody yet, rip. I’m new here (not to Tumblr but to the alterhuman tumblr community) so hopefully I can get equated with some fellow creatures soon!

If you are a alterhuman, reblog and answer these questions!

(don't be afraid to write a lot, do what you want ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯)

1/ Which category of alterhumanity do you belong to?

2/ What/who is/are your type(s)? (if you have any)

3/ Do you experience shifts? If so, can you tell us your most common shifts and your strangest cameo shift (if you've ever had a cameo shift)?

4/ How do you experience your alterhumanity in everyday life?

5/ What do you think of the community?

6/ What are the things that make you most comfortable and euphoric in your alterhumanity?

7/ Are you experiencing species dysphoria?

[declanfs]

I love spending my days with you. We have so much fun and share so many laughs. Your talking is really blooming lately, you’ve been putting 2-3 words together to try to say what you mean or want. Sometimes the environment lends certain context clues just because I do spend so much time with you, so I know what you mean. I love how your face lights up when I repeat what you’ve said and you realize I understand. Sometimes I have to disappoint you because you can’t just have popsicles any time of day, but most of the time I indulge you.

“More chair” in the bedroom means you want me to crawls and chase you while you run laps around the glider.

I’ll have to pay more attention and add more to this as I notice more.

You also like to mimic my silly sounds when we are reading or pretend eating food or pretend drinking drinks. Your growling and chomping and sipping are really next level.

You’re learning colors and you’re really good at yellow, green, and blue. You often mix up pink and red, which is understandable because they’re the closest to each other. You try to say orange and purple, but you seem to like yellow and blue and green the best so you point them out the most frequently.

I wish I had kept a running list of all the words you know because your vocabulary is quite expansive now. The other day you pointed at your sock on the floor and said “raccoon” because it’s has a little raccoon face on it.

I’ll make a list now. Just to be clear, you do not say these things perfectly by any means, but you say them well enough that I understand what you’re saying.

Animals you know: owl, cow, pig, chicken, rooster, wolf, cat, dog, bird, worm, grasshopper, horse, goat, sheep, skunk, deer, bunny, bear, giraffe, hyena, tiger, lion, whale, gorilla, monkey, hippo, bat, frog, bee, ant, butterfly, squirrel, crow, raccoon, fox, elephant, mouse,

Foods: apple, banana, pear, broccoli, cookie, pouch, egg, emmies (m&ms), milk, yogurt, noodles, candy, pepper, mushroom, onion, zucchini, strawberry, cupcake, pie, pea, chips, pretzels, juice (Gatorade, apple juice, or orange juice), cracker, carrot, ice cream, water, water bottle, corn,

Outside: outside, chalk, tree, leaves, trail, water, puddle, rock, mud, park (part), door, flower, plant, bug, stick, pinecone, acorn, gumball

You get the idea. You’re developing a wide breadth and depth of words and you are hungry for more!

Western Danmei Fandom Archetypes

2ha mains - ‘READ THE BOOK READ OUR BOOK NOW sobs about HYX something about hole READ THE BOOK NOW shout out to the absolute unit’ - your book is a terrifying masterpiece and CWN is the kind of character Shakespeare could only dream of crafting and all you do is scream and make terrible jokes, excellent work

mdzs mains - they’re hard to hear over the sound of their own ongoing wars tbh - ‘the author is DEAD unless she says something that proves me right - everyday means everyday!!!! BUT ONLY WITH LUBE! WWX desecrated my mom’s corpse but it wasn’t HIS FAULT, Alexa play wangxian.mp3’ you have all the best and all the worst things about being a massive fandom and if you are not Chinese you need to be throwing flowers at the feet of the Chinese members of this fandom (and every Chinese culture fandom tbh, translations, cultural explainers and endless patience, folks are generous as hell) cus y’all are ANNOYING. Anyway, special shout out for the yi city youts, living in their own darkest timeline cus CQL mains won’t let you have dark and disturbing things

TGCF mains - the simpiest gong and the most smiley shou so quite often y’all miss the heart of darkness in your own story! TGCF is a jamboree of pain, stop selling it as sweet autumnal walks! The delusion that is Beefleaf is a collective trauma response to a deeply harrowing side plot that involved arguably MXTX’s most loveable side character! Jun Wu gives 2ha villains a run for their money in terms of corpse heavy architectural structures! That being said, canonical Self insert porn, and you have a ferret in a cute hat, which is fresh and exciting, not a dog or a fox or cat or a dragon like every fucker else, well done

SVSSS mains - I have to keep it real y’all are a bunch of edgelords, and smug as hell but I’m finna allow it because your (reluctant) gong is the sweetest (sqq if you topped him he might not cry! Just a thought. Ok he might cry less) and you’re right, witty meta with one (1) harrowing scene of like borderline consensual non con (if your focus is sqq) or just plain non con (if your focus is lbh? But the perpetrator is the system? a sword? Their partner trying to save their life?) ent for everyone and people misunderstand your chaotic ass text a lot, because they don’t want to ask difficult questions about ‘what consent even means’ and ‘the intricacies of a meta take on a genre that is from a culture they did not grow up in and found out about on tumblr’ So you know. Frighten people out of your fandom with your in jokes, it’s ok. Also a cumplane is a horrific image when you don’t know what that means, exemplary work.

WOH mains - my beloved Shanrens, y’all and your beloved cast deserved so much better than 813 and you have my whole heart. You are a bit unhinged, cus you only eat ice. Y’all are horny as hell, which makes sense cus your leads were stunning and push hard at the F of RPF, let’s keep it real. All these danmei characters are pretty dark, but yours don’t have a war to hide behind, they’re just like that, (I’m over simplifying, sometimes you have to eat your daddy to survive and that’s ok 😭😭) so you are the most feral of them all. Congratulations. I’m happy for people who’s focus is Yexie, but there are about 6,368 lesbians who found love in hopeless place just waiting for you to write about them, please, I don’t ask for much but write some strap on content I BEG. Speaking of which, shouts to the Nya-Xu girls, you’ve got everyone doing pet play on main and THAT? That is what fandom is about.

Guardian mains - you staggered, limped, dragged yourself across the floor so everyone else could shimmy forwards. You got a good theme tune, well done on your musical taste. Everyone needs to put respect on your name but they don’t, because your show ran out of money half way through 😭 and what little they had was spent almost exclusively on getting two gorgeous leading men and giving them NOTHING to work with (and the snake ladies wardrobe) 😭😭😭

Advance Bravely mains - you’re right, it’s a Dadaist masterpiece, but this shouldn’t be your main, beloved, please watch word of honour, gong jun is in it and everything.

Winter Begonia mains - the thing is, you want people to sit with you! Your show is beautiful in every way, and you advocate for it so softly, with such love. But you look like high art and it’s scaring the sluts away. Make some memes!

Sleuth mains - this fandom seems to divide cleanly into 30 somethings that are tired and might wake up in the middle of the night to strangle you at the slightest provocation and gender fuckers that want to be topped by Jin San and honestly? Mood. Y’all are kinkier than you’d think, much like the source material, but mostly you are just here to eat and sigh wistfully at Fu Meng Paul thirst traps while you write service top porn. If you read that as a RongZhi main and couldn’t see yourself you need to read it again.

Qi Ye mains - we get it, you can read, and yes, ZZS is darker than we ever knew and JBY is more of a mess and we need to be more scared of Wu Xi than we are, and Helian Yi is not prince Jin. Counter point: Prince Jin is a simp and it’s FUNNY, it’s nice having Xiyuan as like, ethereal couple goals and ZZS kills a toddler in SHL and then dumps WKX just for REMINDING HIM, we know what he is, even if he is pretending he does not see. It’s a real good and funny book though, you’re right.

Thousand autumn mains - one guy in your animation looks pretty hot and slutty with his shirt all open and the non jiang purple but you never really sell it, come on! Do some evangelism, we’re never getting HYX so I may as well read something.

BONUS nirvana in fire (it’s not a danmei but if you don’t watch it they take your non problematic consumer card away, and do you know what? That’s fair) - y’all are sophisticated. Smart. Aesthetes. You’re here for POETIC CINEMA, and will accept nothing less. But no one needs your meta, the show is clever enough on its own, stand down. Make some memes instead. We need more porn in this here fandom.

So, by now, I hope you all have seen my little mascot, my little “me as an Opossum” Gren. As much as I looove that character, they don’t really encompass all facets of me. So I decided, let’s make another to fill in the gaps. Naturally, as some of you may have expected, I went with a werewolf, and named them “Gren-del” yes, like the monster from Beowulf. I have my dear friend Cass to thank for that idea.

So, the design process begins. I knew I didn't want to go with a classic werewolf. Wolves are… gosh I may get flack for this but I think they are overrated. As much as I am a cat person, that also didn’t quite feel right either, so I started digging into obscure canids. I ended up finding the dhole, also known as the asiatic wild dog. They are very social and very intelligent, brave as hell (these guys routinely take on tigers and leopards). The animal's fearsome reputation in India is reflected by the number of pejorative names it possesses in Hindi, which variously translate as "red devil", "devil dog", "jungle devil", or "hound of Kali".

That last part spoke to me. Most canids have relatively positive associations, wolves for their family lives, dogs for their loyalty, foxes for their cunning. Dholes, however, don't possess those connotations, and that really struck me. They have such a reputation, when in reality, they are intelligent, cooperative, and lax in social structure when compared to wolves. They’re misunderstood. I’ve always felt that way, ever since I was a kid. I’ve always loved outcasts and misfits. So why not be one through art? Heck, I'm already an opossum!

So I started doodling. I wanted to familiarize myself with the dhole’s shapes, so I did a page of small studies to get used to their shapes. They have these lovely high cheekbones, convex profiles, and gigantic round ears. Typically they are a rich rust color, with northern subspecies exhibiting thick coats accented with white on their throats and jawlines. I decided to go with different colors, those of an isabella coloured dog with silvery eyes and a white star marking on the forehead. It’s just ethereal enough to let the weredhole look like a ghost in the night without going standard “white”.

They’re also a bit on the slender side, and lack an undercoat (which means they’re literally always cold. Someone get them a sweater). They also have a raggedy ruff of fur around their neck, face, and shoulders which is often tangled and a bit messy.

But why a were-creature in the first place? Well, I've always felt torn between two worlds, the world of external expectations and the world of internal happiness. Along with that, I am a naturally mercurial person due to some trauma in my background and I have a tendency to be spicy or snappy, as much as I wish I didn’t have that tendency, it’s something i'm working on, but it will likely persist for my whole life in some way, shape, or form. It’s during these times of irritability and unkindness that I often feel like a monster. Afterward, the shame kicks in and I feel so… so horribly ashamed and embarrassed by my own behavior. That really feels like something monstrous to me. I hope that makes sense. I feel like a monster so so so often. Honestly, it’s a really hard thing to work through. I’ve hurt people. I have hurt some of the people I love most in this world, and I find it very difficult to forgive myself for that.

Gren-del is my ghost. They will follow me for the rest of my life, they terrify me, but I seek to understand them. Our lives are full of ghosts, whether that’s regrets we have or memories or grief or shame or guilt.

"Horror is a shrine to imperfection. It tells you its okay to be a monster. We are all monsters at the end of the day. Can we live with that?"- Guillermo Del Toro

As long as we're talking about mental health and the capacity for empathy, allow me to talk about animals. animals generally aren't nearly as kind as humans believe. Animals can have mental disorders too, they can also strangely be racist towards members of their own species. For instance, clear coated dolphins will often bully/attack spotted dolphins. I used to know a dog who only liked dogs of her own breed and would attack other dog breeds. Sometimes cats will only sit with cats who are their same coloring, refusing to cooperate with cats of other coloring. The general key with animals seems to be that the smarter they are, the more capacity they have for altruism and sadism. Many of the smartest animals are also simultaneously the most altruistic and sadistic. Elephants, dolphins and chimps are great examples of this. Dolphins will save other animals even though they don't get anything from it. They are also one of the only animals that have been known to torture members of their own species. Chimps are one of the only creatures that will freely let themselves go hungry to save someone they love, they are also one of the only creatures that are cunning enough to plan a murder of another chimp ahead of time. In other words, they'll lead that chimp away from the group to kill the other quietly where no one will interfere. Also, did you know animals can display traits of psychopathy? I genuinely didn't know that until recently. Other weird animal behaviors, lemurs and dolphins love getting high and will usually put time aside specifically for finding the materials to get themselves high. What I've learned from studying animals is that they are actually quite similar to humans, far more than most people like to think. In general when studying psychology, I've found that nurture is often a far stronger aspect than nature. Animals who are raised in captivity will often behave like humans or other species around them do. For instance, a parrot raised around dogs began acting like the dogs did.

This was entirely unnecessary, but I did warn you before that I have a million different topics sitting in my head at any given day XD.

Super interesting!

I actually have a parrot of my own, and with my research and special interest when I was younger on parrots (behdbdj shhh) they can self harm, become depressed, have ptsd, and so many other psychological disorders.

The thing with humans is that we like to disconnect ourselves from animals. When people colonized the Americas, they stopped a lot of indigenous people from foraging. This not only hurt these communities, but also they’re environment.

The reason for this is that we as people, are APART of the environment. We are predators much like any other species; when we murder and take away the predators in an environment (like foxes, wolves, etc) then it’s our responsibility to pick up the slack when we take away those animals.

My mom grows food in the city. She’s had an ongoing battle with squirrels over them destroying the food taht she’s been growing. Animal activists just don’t understand that, apart of being IN an environment is not just protecting the species that exist there. It’s also keeping the populations down that we create.

Squirrels in the city don’t have natural predators. Cats don’t hunt squirrels because they’re too fast. This creates a place where squirrels continue to breed, and even though they are native to North America and my area, they instead act like an invasive species.

No wonder we’re more connected to them than we think; we’re all from the same place as them. We are apart of the environment, that just means we have to fix the mistakes we’ve made and stop playing god when we aren’t.

Ntm the idea that humans should just, leave earth when people talk about climate change. That’s not possible. We know that. It’s literally just a way to be pessimistic about climate change when we need to take action and fix our mistakes.

It won’t just go away.

The ‘Spice of Life’✨ Legacy Challenge

Sometimes playing the sims can get a little stale, and somewhat repetitive, especially The Sims 4. I know I can get stuck playing the same stories over and over again, so I decided to create this challenge to add a little excitement and variety to my, and hopefully your, game-play!

Gen 2: The Money Maker

Your parent was the coolest! but you always wished there was more structure in your life. You’re a perfectionist, and truth be told a little materialistic, but that doesn’t make you a bad person! You love to hangout with friends, playing video games and chatting about the latest Sci-Fi movies. From the time you were a child you knew you wanted the best things in life and were determined to work your butt off to get them! 

Aspiration: Mansion Baron

Once your sim becomes an elder have them retire and focus only on hobbies and relaxation (only once they’re reached the max level in their career though)

Gen 3: The Tree Hugger

You grew up in a wealthy household with pretty much everything you could have wanted. You had a great childhood and your admired your parents work ethic, although you knew that when you grew up you wanted to do something more meaningful for the world than investing. So you packed up your bags as soon as you hit young adulthood and moved to Evergreen Harbour

Aspiration: Eco Innovator

Traits: Green Fiend, Vegetarian, Good

Generation rules / goals:

Gen 4: The Undecided

You grew up with a parent and grandparent who accomplished great things; they were sims who worked hard and stuck to their guns. You have always been..well a bit different. You can’t even decide what you want for breakfast, let alone pick a career or spouse. This makes you jealous of others like your parent and grandparent who you believe have their life together.

Aspiration: You must change your sims aspiration 3 times during their life but never complete one, not even their childhood one.

Traits: Non-committal, Jealous, Erratic

Generation rules / goals: 

Join and quit scouts as a kid; get about halfway through before you quit

Have your sim join at least two jobs as a teenager. They can join and quit more if you like

Get your sim to level 5 of at least three skill during their lifetime before they quit those as well

Change your sims career multiple times, making sure they never reach the top of any career

Get your sim married, and divorced...twice. It’s up to you whether you sim ends up finding someone to stay with. However, your sim must have only have one child from all of their relationships.

Have your sim have an affair during one of their relationships. It’s up to you whether the partner finds out about this or not

Your sim must lose their relationship with the Gen 3 sim (their parent) after a big fight over Gen 4′s jealousy issue. Your sim should never speak to that parent again

Your sim must never be best friends or true lovers with anyone; they are non-committal and that means no matter how much they care for another sim they feel somewhat unsure about every relationship

Gen 5: The Vampire Groupie

Your childhood was less than ideal, although your parent loved you they had a lot of their own problems and that left you pretty lonely at times. Your solace was a particular vampire movie about a sim who falls in love with a vampire. “That could be me,” you though, “That WILL be me.” So when you become a young adult you take everything you have and leave in search of your dream life in Forgotten Hollow, the only problem with your plan is that you’re just a bit squeamish... okay a lot

Aspiration: Master Vampire

Traits: Romantic, Family Oriented, Squeamish 

Generation rules / goals: 

Your sim should watch a lot of movies as a child and teen. Of course your sim loves that particular vampire movie that definitely doesn’t rhyme with Highlight, but really they love all movies

As soon as your sim becomes a young adult move them into Forgotten Hollow

Meet and start a relationship with a vampire of your choice; you can put a sim from the gallery in your game or date Caleb Vatore, Lilith Vatore, or even Vlad Straud if you want!

I think this goes without saying but your sim should be turned into a vampire for this generation lol

Complete the Master Vampire Aspiration

You can have any career for this generation, it doesn’t matter!

Master the Vampire Lore skill throughout your sims lifetime

Master the Pipe Organ skill throughout your sims lifetime

Start a ‘Vampire Club’ with only other vampires present, you can use this club to do any kind of vampire activity - however, since you left your old life behind, these sims are your only friends

Your sim is squeamish so they personally choose not to drink other sims blood unless absolutely necessary, this means your sim must grow and sustain a garden full of plasma plants

Once your sim obtains a plasma fruit (and two garlic) they can prepare a Sunlight Reversal Cocktail if they like, that way they can go into the sun during the day; this isn’t required though

Your sim must have at least three kids. One of these children should NOT be a vampire. This will be the heir. If all of your children are born vampires you can use a mods to make them human. I recommend MC Command Center, which you can find here: https://deaderpool-mccc.com/#/releases

I also recommend this mod: https://modthesims.info/d/589300/child-vampire-manifestation-v1-9.html which basically makes it so that child vampires can perform any vampire actions, just like teens, young adults, etc.

Gen 6: The Beach Bum

Your parents are absolutely wonderful, but are weird. In fact, you’re convinced that you’re the only sane one out of your whole family. You love them but who in the right mind would want to live the life of a vampire? You knew early on that the vampire life was not for you, and thank goodness you just so happened to be the only sibling born human! I guess you can thank those recessive genes. You want to live the Beach Life, spending your days out in the sun and working to conserve the beautiful island of Sulani!

Aspiration: Beach Life

Traits: Child of the Ocean, Loves the Outdoors, Free Trait / You can pick your sims third trait!

Generation rules / goals:

Your sim must move to Sulani as a young adult and spend their whole life there

Reach the max level of the Conservationist Career

Complete the Beach Life aspiration

Befriend as least one mermaid - your sim can become a mermaid to if they want but it’s not necessary

Marry someone who already lives on Sulani as well

Have your sim live in a house on the beach at least once during your their life

Complete the sea shell collection

Spend ALOT of time outside; fish, ski-do, tan on the beach - your sim loves the outdoors and the Sulani sun, anything they can do outside they will

Keep a close relationship between your sim and their parents & siblings - even though they don’t love the vampire life they love their family

Gen 7: The Tinkerer

You’ve always been a homebody, hanging out in your house on the computer and tinkering with things in the home. Your parent was always nagging you to go outside and play as a kid. As soon as you were old enough to hold a wrench you were fixing things. You knew when you became a young adult you wanted to go to Foxbury Institute and learn to program and create robots!

Aspiration: Computer Whiz

Traits: Genius, The other two traits can be anything you choose!

Generation rules / goals:

* For this generation I ABSOLUTELY recommend this mod which shortens university. It just makes it sooo much easier to complete a degree: https://modthesims.info/d/646803/shorter-university-degrees.html *

Have your sim complete the Whiz Kid aspiration as a child

Master the Logic skill throughout your sims lifetime

Master the Robotics skill throughout your sims lifetime

Master the Handiness skill throughout your sims lifetime

Once your sim becomes a teenager they should be the one who fixes ANYTHING broken within the household

In order for your sim to attend Foxbury Institute for a Computer Science degree your sim must have certain skills (such as computer programming, robotics, etc.) since it is a distinguished degree. You’ll need to work on these skills as a teen to have a chance to be excepted there. If you don’t feel like having your sim work on those skills as a teen your sim can attend Britechester University but they should still work on the robotics skill!

Complete the Computer Whiz aspiration

Graduate university with a degree in Computer Science

Live in a modern style house in any world

Gen 8: The Believer

Your parent has always been a technological genius, creating artificial intelligence. But you’ve always known that science wasn’t needed for there to be fantastical things in this world. No one else in your family believes your crazy ideas about alien but hey, you once heard that your great grandparents were vampires, so it could be possible! Sure you’re a little erratic but you’re determined to prove the existence of aliens, and befriend them. How will you do this? Well by becoming an iron pumping, rocket building astronaut of course!

Aspiration: Bodybuilder

Traits: Athletic, Self-Assured, You can pick your sims third trait!

Generation rules / goals:

You sim must join and reach the top of the Astronaut career

Your sim must live in Oasis Springs

Have your sim complete the Body Builder aspiration - astronauts have to be strong after all!

Master the Rocket Science skill

Your sim will unlock a rocket when they reach level 10 of their career (the rocket can either be the Apollo Rocket - unlocked though the Space Ranger branch of the astronaut career, or the Retro Rocket - unlocked through the Interstellar Smuggler branch. You can choose which rocket you want)  but honestly who wants to wait for that, so as soon as your sim gets to level 5 of their career use cheats to unlock the rocket and start building!

Once your sim has completed their rocket you must level up their Rocket Science skill to level 10 and then install the Wormhole Generator upgrade. This will allow you to travel to Sixam and meet aliens!

Your sim must befriend and marry an alien they meet on Sixam. If you don’t like that particular alien you can either come back to Sixam or open CAS and edit them, either is fine.

Have your sim have a baby with their new alien spouse. Only have ONE baby.

If your sims baby is born NOT an alien you can use cheats to make them one. MC Command Center can be used for this and is linked above for Generation 5

Gen 9: The Star of Sixam

You’re an alien and you’ve proud of it! You loved listening to your alien parent tell stories of your home world and knew that when you grew up you wanted to make your relatives on Sixam proud. The best way to do this is of course to become the most famous alien musician the Sim world has ever seen!

Aspiration: Musical Genius

Traits: Self-Assured, Perfectionist, Music Lover

Generation rules / goals: 

Your sim must NEVER wear their disguise unless absolutely necessary - they are very proud to be an alien and they don’t see any reason to hide that

As a child your sim should complete the Artistic Prodigy aspiration

Master the Violin skill throughout your sims lifetime

Master the Piano skill throughout your sims lifetime

Your can have your sim master the Singing skill throughout their lifetime if you want, but it isn’t necessary

It doesn't matter how many children your sim has for this generation, but the heir should NOT be an alien - you can use MC Command Center to make them human if you need to

Gen 10: The Apprehensive Actress / Actor  AKA the Final Generation!

You grew up in a VERY artistic household, with parents who were both interested in music and one parent who made a huge career of it. You love acting and knew your parent was ecstatic when you started showing interest in acting as a teen. Unfortunately you don’t really like the idea of being famous...

Aspiration: Master Actress / Actor

Traits: Loner, Good, Creative

Your sim is an artistic child, however we aren’t gonna worry about completing the Artistic Prodigy aspiration as a child because we did that last generation - you can do it if you want though!

Your sim should reach the max level of the Acting career

Have your sim master the Acting skill

Your sim should marry someone non-famous in a private ceremony with only those sims (or family and close friends if you like) present

can you do dilf tropes for skz? (each member has a dilf trope kinda thing) 🙏🏼

Ella’s Thoughts #14 (??) (requested)

hmm i’m not sure about that one, but i’ll give it a try. also i assume you mean it in a wholesome way, so i practically made it as them as dads 💀💀💀 i hope its not a problem.

Headcanons: Stray Kids as dilfs/dads

Chan

Unpopular opinion: i see chan being more of a stepdad dilf rather than a biological dilf (no i do not mean it like that, GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE GUTTER !!) he strikes me as the type to not want children but he would love to take care of them nonetheless. like a non-dilf dilf type of guy (like he is rn lmfao.) he does not by any means hates children, he would love to have kids with you if you both want to. he just feels having a kids is too much, and its enough that he serves as a father figure to not only seven boys, but also to some stays, i think he would better off taking care of the boys’ kids or your kids of a previous relationship rather than having actual ones.

BUT if he were to have kids, its not any different from the way he treats his members. i mean there‘s an obvious difference, but he would still be that goofy, caring yet slightly strict father who constantly looks after his kids, especially if his kid is a girl, but it wouldn’t be any different if his kid was a boy as well.

oh and he’s a silver fox dilf like i’ve mentioned in the past :)

Minho

I mean ain’t he technically a dilf (along with chan) ???? mans already has three cats, ain’t that enough ??? no jk, minho’s the type of dilf who’s very chill and nonchalant about the way he’s handling his child. Like he strikes me as the type of dad dilf who would ignore his child’s cry for attention, but obviously it would be a totally different story if his kid, lets say, gets injured, there he would be this comforting dad who would both tend his child’s wound and also try to make them smile by making goofy sounds and faces.

I can also see him enabling his child’s chaotic antics. as long as no one’s hurt or crying, he’s not stopping them.

all in all; Minho’s a 3 c’s dilf; chill, chaotic yet cherishing.

Changbin

Oh boy is this man’s a child. i think he’d be more like Minho, but has a little bit of Chan element to it. He has the tendency to be very childish and he allows himself to be kid-like with his kids, however he does happen to discipline his kid when his kid has done something wrong. He still however acts all goofy and he sometimes makes baby faces and noises to his kid in order to make them laugh when they’re younger, or endearingly embarrass them when they get older

He‘s definitely more freeing than Chan, but he’s less lenient than Minho when it comes to parenting, however he’s a baby dilf, so be it.

Hyunjin

Again, this man’s already a father of a dog, kami, so he’s a technically dilf as well. He’s the type of dilf who’s very stylish and attractive to anyone of all age demographics, and he knows it. He would also SPOIL THE SHIT out of his child. he may also match his child with his outfit. like if i’m wearing burberry, my child’s wearing burberry.

All in all, Hyunjin’s a stylish rich daddy >:)

Jisung

How can someone gives off teen dad vibes despite being in his twenties and does not even have a pet, let alone a child? for some reason, jisung gives off that vibes. Don’t get me wrong, he’d definitely be affectionate and caring, but you can’t tell me that this man isn’r the most unprepared and anxious dad ever. Like every new parent, he does feel scared to carry a baby, in fear of dropping it, but his child would be 18 years old and he’d still be anxious as fuck.

All in all, he’s a caring and kind dilf but this man is a nervous wreck, he’s a cause for disaster most time. But he is cute, so he can get a pass lmffaooo.

Felix

ngl i’ll probably cry writing this…. cry of laughter, because gOD IS HE MORE EMBARRASSING THAN JISUNG !!! idk whats my vendetta against felix, but on god i love this kid so much. YES KID, because you going take care of two kids rather than one, you’re a single parent, i’m sorry.

in all seriousness, he’s a child parent, and he often is seen silding down the slide with his child in his lap. He constantly makes that baby voice he makes at times. He’s also the perfect guy to read his kid a bed time story, and he would also have a bake day with his child as well <3333 nahh he’d be an adorable ass dilf no joke.

Seungmin

this man… he is a savage in itself, and you think his kid, the literally creature that came out of his testes, would get a special treatment? think again, because he would absolutely drag his child through the mud. i obviously don’t think this man would do anything to hurt his child, emotionally or physically. think of it as a father-child banter between them. bonus if his child happens to have the same personality as him.

he does get all intimidating when mad, which envokes fear onto anyone close to him, however i still do think he’d be a fine ass dilf…. he just needs to shut his smart ass up before i beat him and his child u—

Jeongin

He’s giving felix and jisung here as well. clueless, scared, and anxious. mans a baby, why the fuck would you give him a child? he’d hold the child with his eyes wide open and be like “…. wait thats mine?! help me!” in a panicking voice making him and the baby cry.

he would be the type of dad who would let his child off the hook most of the times. he gives off “my child isn’t wrong, you are” vibes highkey. He also is the type of dad who would yell at his child for not cheating at an online class. what i’m saying is he’s a weird dilf thats all im saying lmfao

oh you disagree ? THATS TOO BAD I DON’T CARE !!! //j

HIHIHI

okok hear me out..

the shifter bois with a neko s/o, and they’re like a lycanthrope so they have cat ears and a tail in like a somewhat human form OR, can just straight up shift into a cat-

i feel like davey would be more protective and Aggro would like love reader sm and milo would get jealous but idk just a thought :]

(a/n: your brain is so large anon. when i imagine Cat Shifter . i just imagine a Slightly Bigger Cat and its lovely. like i imagine david's wolf form to be HUGE but i cant imagine a cat shifter to be much bigger than like a fox or a coyote. which i guess is big for a cat but ANYWAYS)

character(s): david, asher and milo x reader

reader's pronouns: not specified

cw: none :3

david

he is So Careful with you

david's a big guy, both in his wolf form (around the size of the BIGGEST recorded black bear- like 900 pounds) and in his human form. so being with someone who shifts into such a small creature makes him a little nervous

between the two of you, there's at least 4 lint rollers that get completely used up per week

he really likes carrying you around while you're shifted though. he especially loves when you sit on his shoulders as he does work or cooks

he's very particular about maintaining his own fur when he shifts, and he's more than happy to help you with yours too

it's not that he thinks you can't on your own, he just thinks it's very intimate :3

he does love that he has something else in common with you, too. it's just another think for you two to talk about in your free time

he is soft your honor

i mean, you're not a wolf, so your experiences won't be that similar

but they're similar enough that you can relate to eachother

asher

when the two of you first started dating, he was really worried that him being a wolf shifter and you being a cat shifter would be an issue

like dogs chase cats type thing

but once he gets over that, the cat puns will never end. like actually never. every day you wake up with him, you're immediately hit with "did you enjoy your cat nap?"

he's constantly playing with your tail when he's zoning out. it's just a habit that he's picked up subconsciously- he probably doesn't know he does it, and you don't plan to tell him

to kiss him for being a geek or to punch him for being a geek, that is the question

asks dumbass questions like "do you shower? or bathe? well i mean, i thought cats hated water... DO YOU LICK YOURSELF TO CLEAN???"

whenever you're in your cat form, if you meow at him, he IS meowing back and you WILL end up having a conversation just meowing back and forth

what an idiot. how is he gonna be a shifter himself and ask dumb questions like this. he is perfect.

he'll also shift with you, just to have that shifter-couple bond

he's also insanely relieved that he didn't have to explain shifter magic to you

milo

this dude LOVES it

we already know he's a cat person. and his partner??? who can Shift Into A Cat???? it's perfect

he's constantly asking for you to shift so he can pet you. which. you agree to after a Lot of convincing

and with aggro. in my experience with owning cats my whole life, these fuckers HATE eachother at first

and once you let him, he finds it so comforting. he was also Very surprised to learn that you do, in fact, purr

whenever you're spending time with him, like cooking together or watching a show, you can Feel this creepy little cat giving you a death glare from across the room

so when you and milo first start dating, aggro does Not like you and you do Not like aggro. the both of you take turns getting jealous over who has milo's attention

milo, being the observant guy he is, noticed this almost immediately. he thinks its cute, but he feels bad for making you feel like you, his partner, need to compete for attention with his cat

and whenever he's petting aggro or playing with him, you'll try your darndest to get his attention back on you

you learn to get along though, much to milo's delight
