#I used him as a pillow while he made his ocs in a picrew he found

[echolepzy]

Close relationships don’t always have to be about romance and intimacy! I cast sibling dynamic!!

Not necessarily actual siblings but the kind of relationship where they might as well be. They know so much about each other and shared crucial life experiences. They aren’t quite friends, they aren’t quite enemies, they aren’t quite lovers. They will be so so mean to each other but also come through for each other when nobody else will. I Am Sending You Things You Hate On Purpose And Also I Love You Good Night Stupid Idiot

Monkey King: Hero is Back Au/Sequel details:

Old post of ideas and theories - made before I experienced the game.

May name the au and/or fic "Hero Rebound" as a ref to the ship nam eof Dasheng and his LEM.

Mixing some elements found in the video game as the added lore is cool af but a bit messy. Also the old man that raised Liuer deserves recognition.

Putting characters under Read More:

Major Characters:

Dasheng/Sun Wukong/"The Great Sage Equal to Heaven":

Going by the prequel concept poster; Was born/hatched looking like a coconut macaroon.

Secretly a herbalism/medical nerd. In the games he keeps a little guide of the medicinal plants and materials he finds.

Babysat a lot on Huaguo. In the english dub he even seems to default to asking if Liuer needs a babysitter.

Instincts take over a lot. Will pull the kids towards him and groom fur thats not even there.

Is tramatized by his experience in the Trigram Furnace.

Desperately wishes to find Erlang Shen so he can kick his ass.

Tries to play it cool; but Liuer's death actually tramatized him. He fears losing him again.

Don't touch Liuer or Silly Girl. Those are his babies now. He will kill you.

Zhanshi/Six Earred Macaque/Liu er Mihou/"Great Sage Informing Wind":

An oc/JTTW character variation; Was a member of the Brotherhood of Sages during her and Dasheng's youth. The LMK OC Picrew was used to create a rough image of her.

Sweetest ray of bustling sunshine compared to her gloomier mate. Will still kill any being that dares touch one of her subjects.

Severely injured during the Burning on Mount Huaguo - permanetly damaging her right eye and ears. Dasheng had assumed she'd died during the battle after he was tossed into the Furnace.

Honorary grandma to the little monkeys of Mount Huaguo. Helped raise many of them after the Burning while their parents foraged and worked the land.

Finds a weird Stone Egg that crashed down after the solar eclipse. Now everyone seems to want the dang thing. Realised what the egg truly was when she heard the flutters of a heartbeat from within.

First time Liuer accidentally called her "Mama", Zhanshi cried for two hours.

Pls do not touch the baby monkeys. She will bite. And crush.

Jiang Liuer/"Tripitaka"/Current Incarnation of Golden Cicada:

Died during the battle with Hundun - but Dasheng basically smashed down the doors of the Celestial Realm and begged the gods/bodhisattvas to bring his biy back.

Is bedbound and near comatose for 49 days as his body and soul heals.

Dasheng sacrificed his powers, freedom, and some of his dao/life energy for Liuer's revival. Liuer may or may not be part-stone monkey now.

Liuer doesn't know what happened to his parents. He assumed he was abandoned. His time in Diyu-Limbo clears this assumption up - learning that his parents died protecting him from mountain trolls/yao that wanted him for his delicious holy soul.

Can be a feral little guy at times. He was raised by a hermit after all.

Calls Fa Ming "granddad" in the english dub, so it's possible he just assumes Fa Ming is his granddad.

Is desperate for a mother figure.

Sha Ya Tou/"Silly Girl"/"A-nan":

A very cheerful baby despite her situation.

Is not 100% human.

Hundun specifically needed her for the ritual.

First word ends up being "Bima!" (horse) after someone mentioned "Bimawen".

Zhu Bajie/"Uncle Pigsy"/Marshal Canopy:

Lies that he's the reincarnated Pagoda King to scare demons. And because nobody outside of Heaven knows who Marshal Canopy is.

Gets real quiet when people bring up the story of Chang'e for some reason...

Amazing uncle figure. Notices that Liuer is sad during the movie's song sequence and uses his transformation ability to let the little guy experience flying.

Most of the time on the road he lets the kids use his stomach as a pillow.

Sha Wujing/"Sandy":

Another oc/JTTW character variation since no Sandy-equivalent appears in Hero is Back. Also made in the LMK OC Picrew.

She/they

Dresses very masculine but loves accessorising with flowers, shells, bones, pretty rock etcs.

Zhu Bajie shot her a wink and Sha Wujing had to politely explain that she wasn't interested in men in general. The two then bonded over their shared love for women.

Encounters the Seven Spider Sisters and... ohhh mama.

Sifu Fa Ming/"Grandpa":

Just some really cool old human dude.

Has a Diogenes-esque view of life, and does not care for monks and religious officials living in luxury. Self-exiled himself from his Vihara so that he could persue a simpler life.

Raised the baby he found (named "Little River Float/Jiang Liuer" cus thats what the baby was) with whatever he could find. Pretty much all alms he gained were used for food and clothes for his adopted grandchild. And from what the opening credits show, Fa Ming travelled with Liuer on his back through rain, snow, and shine.

Considers finding Liuer a blessing from the Buddha. Something he's somewhat correct on.

Was the first one to introduce Liuer to the legend of the Monkey King - as a cautionary tale to not be covetous. He did not anticipate Liuer thinking the monkey demon was the coolest person in all of Buddhist mythos. Fa Ming sighs, maybe that doll of his influenced that too.

His english va is James Hong, aka Mr Ping from Kung Fu Panda and he gives the best english performance imo. James Hong just be playing ancient chinese men who find and adopt a random baby they find.

Canglong/"The Dragon":

Isn't Ao Lie/Bai Longma... but is one of his dads. Canglong and Ao Run are a thing. Ganglong was once a regular rain dragon who saw that the newly-appointed King Ao Run of the "Western Sea" (in the mythos the older three called dibs on the actual seas around China) trying to build a canal from the Yellow River. Canglong called down a great rain to help make the in-land sea/lake that would become Qinghai Lake. The two dragon bonded over their effort and well... dragon pups occured.

I hc that the Western Sea kingdom is a lot more chill than it's empire-like brothers, so these guys are flying and swimming freely all around the place.

In the film the dragon and Dasheng just sorta team-up off screen. In the game they have Guanyin bring the boys straight to the Western Sea Palace (in the sky) to ask for a dragon assist. Canglong fought Hundun and the other three Perils before alongside "Shunwang" - a human with a sword. "Shunwang" is likely a reference to Emperor Shun of the "Three Soverigns and Five Emperors"-era of Chinese mythos (same era as Nuwa, Fuxi, and Shennong) and predecesor of Yu the Great; who ultimately tamed the waters with Ruyi Jingu Bang (Sun Wukong's future staff). Emperor Shun in mythos beat the stuffing out of the Four Perils - though not the same ones that include Hundun - rather Gonggong who broke the Heavenly Pillar.

Adding on to the lore from the HiB game: Canglong teamed up with humanity during the Great Flood to help curb the flood waters. Here he met Shunwang, who's goal was to kill the Four Perils and God that helped cause the Flood. Canglong thought that was cool af and got all the dragons involved to help. The Four Perils are sadly all concepts and you really can't 100% kill them, so they all ended up sealed away instead. By the time of Dasheng's release; Hundun (blind chaos) got out. Canglong was in the same area as the gang looking for Hundun to apprehend him - when Sun Wukong ran up to him with info on what Hundun had planned, Canglong agreed to help no questions asked.

As in game canon: Helps the gang return the stolen children. I hc through amazing sense of smell. Canglong doesn't hang around for long though, as Ao Run immediately flies over, worried out of his mind for his injured mate, and brings him home. Canglong and Ao Run do however have a cheeky white-scaled dragon pup that likes to pretend to be horse and is obsessed with the legendary Bimawen...

Hundun and the Great Perils:

A squad of four primordial concepts set loose when the destructive water god Gonggong destroyed the Heavenly Pillar. Their goal? Take out the newly-formed humanity.

Among them was (as taken from Chinese mythos):

‣Qiongqi/窮奇/"poor and strange": Deviousness. Said to devour the innocent/noble people, and serve evil ones. Said to either possess the body of a flying tiger or a carnivorous ox. Killed at the hands of Emperor Shun.

‣Taotie/餮/"greedy glutton": Gluttony. Said to have the head of a ding/bronze vessel that consumes all. Has the body of an ungulate, and the voice of a baby. Some believe it to be the reincarnated form of Chi You - the decapitated enemy of the Yellow Emperor.

‣ Taowu/檮杌/"stupid stump": Ignorance. Personifies the stubborness of man, and the refusal to learn. Resembles a sabre-toothed tiger.

‣ Hundun/混沌/"chaotic torrent: Chaos. Like chaos it's true form is blind and directionless. Mythology says that attempts were made to give it holes in which to see, breath, and eat, but it immediately died and reincarnated into "an evil creature".

Nuwa, alongside Shunwang and the dragons, and a bunch of other allies, kicked the Perils butts but couldn't 100% kill them. The compromise was exile/sealing them away indefinitely. Hundun in his original form was attemtped to be rehabitilated, but upon gaining sight and the ability to breathe - died and reincarnated into the human-reptilian avatar we see in the film.

"Hundun" is an extenstion of primordial chaos itself - a thing that isn't inherently evil and was born alongside Pangu when the World Egg hatched. The demon king however, has merely a chunk of the power held by his original life.

Hundun in his current form may have died... but the soul within has move on into something else. Child-like chaos cannot be contained.

Wishful Thinking' (Nanami Kento x OC) - Part 4

(Jujutsu Kaisen Fanfiction)

Readers be warned: this fanfiction is full of heavy spoilers from the tailend of Jujutsu Kaisen's second season (the Shibuya Incident). If you are not yet familiar with what happens in that arc, I would bookmark this series to come back to when you have.

Before you read this, take a moment to check out Himawari's character sheet. Otherwise, some of the following events may not make a whole lot of sense. Enjoy!

(Temporary image of Himawari made in the Picrew creator- try it yourself here!)

General Warnings: SFW, at least PG-13 due to minor depictions of injury/gore, fluff

| ♡ |

(That evening...)

Nanami neatly tucked the final section of the sheet into the corner of the futon while Himawari waited on the adjacent loveseat, cupping the freshly-brewed cup of herbal tea in her hands.

"I feel bad," she began. "Making you set up your own bed when you're my guest."

"I insisted," Nanami replied plainly. "You may be able to stand again, but I don't want you pushing yourself too far when you should still be recovering."

He lifted the soft knit blanket over the sheet, letting it gently flutter back down onto the surface.

"Will you be warm enough with that?" Himawari eyed the blanket. She only ever used it to sit over her legs while she read or watched television in the living area. "It's a little thin."

"That will be fine, thank you." Nanami nodded, taking a seat on the edge of the futon, resting his elbows on his knees with a yawn. "Would you happen to have a spare pillow?"

"Oh! Of course." Himawari stood from her seat and started walking over to the linen closet. "Wait here."

She moved around the corner and pulled the closet door open. Tilting her chin upward, she realized her spare pillow was on the top shelf that was a little too high, even for her.

Whose bright idea was it to keep anything on the top shelf...? She thought to herself for a moment before snickering under her breath. Oh, right. That was me.

She reached upward and stood on her tiptoes when a zing of pain shot up her body from the strain, causing her to stumble back with a jolt. To her surprise, she felt Nanami's hands press against her shoulders to keep her from falling over, her back gently pressed against his chest. Not thinking, she looked up at him awkwardly from over her shoulder, her breath catching in her throat. His steady one-eyed gaze met hers and instantly made her feel three feet tall. I've never looked at his face this closely before...

"Miss Sasaki," he began, the warm breath of his voice brushing across the skin of her face. "Tell me something."

"Y-yes?" She gulped, unable to move.

"What is your aversion to asking for help?" He asked flatly. Keeping on hand on her shoulder, he reached over her head to slide the pillow off the shelf.

Himawari sheepishly sunk down a little, assuming he was genuinely irritated with her when he softly bonked her on the head with the soft pillow before tucking it under his arm. She let out a scoff.

"Hey..." She mockingly rubbed her head with a chuckle. To her surprise, Nanami cracked the slightest hint of a smile that made her heart skip a beat. "Huh. So you can smile."

"I smile plenty." He closed the door of the closet and guided her back to the main room with a gentle hand in the middle of her back. "Just not without reason."

He set the pillow down at the head of the futon before checking his own teacup. "Ah," he clicked his tongue. "I'm going to brew another pot. Would you like me to top you up while I'm at it?"

"I'm alright, thank you," Himawari responded with a bow. "I think I'm actually going to take this opportunity to shower. I haven't had the chance to clean up since..."

As she trailed off, her momentary joviality from her banter with Nanami faded, replaced with the memories she'd been trying to avoid ever since she'd finished sobbing earlier. Nanami's mouth curved into a slight frown.

"Are you sure that's wise?" He asked. "You're still not completely stable. I don't want you to fall."

"I'll take it slow and keep a hand on the wall, don't worry," Himawari replied, shaking her sadness away from her expression as best she could. "What, are you offering to help me shower?"

"What?!" Nanami's jaw dropped, surprised at her brazen remark. "No! I-I just-"

"I'm kidding, Mr. Nanami," Himawari laughed, shaking her head incredulously. "I'll be careful, okay? Make yourself comfortable; help yourself to whatever you find in the kitchen. I'll be back in a bit."

Not waiting for a response, Himawari walked into the bathroom, leaving Nanami to brew his tea, the unburnt tip of his right ear flushed red with embarrassment.

"Hah..." Himawari let out a breath of relief as she dried her hair with her favourite towel. It feels so good to feel clean again.

| ♡ |

She thew her towel into the corner laundry hamper and set her Scarecrow costume in a plastic bag and tied it off, setting it in the garbage can when she re-emerged into the main room of the flat.

Nanami was sitting at one of the stools by the kitchen island, reading one of Himawari's books while Hoshi snuggled up over his right shoulder like a fluffy black scarf. Himawari's giggle caught his attention as she approached him.

"Looks like you've made a friend for life in Hoshi."

"Is that her name?" Nanami rubbed Hoshi under the chin and was met with a soft purr. He let out an amused huff. "I think I know why we get along so well."

"Oh?" Himawari tilted her head curiously.

"Look." Nanami held Hoshi up beside his face and looked at Himawari with a deadpan expression, pointing at her missing eye with his burnt finger. "We match."

Himawari gasped and clapped a hand over her mouth, trying not to laugh; but she and Nanami both broke into laughter when Hoshi batted at his nose with an irritated chirp.

"Alright, alright." He set the perturbed feline gently on the ground by his feet. Hoshi pressed up against his calves with a purr of forgiveness before walking off to the water dish. "Oh, I hope you don't mind - I borrowed one of your books."

"No problem," Himawari shrugged. "Which one?"

"It's your collected works of Edgar Allen Poe," he explained, taking another sip of his tea as Himawari took a seat in the stool beside him, resting her elbows on the surface if the island.

"Oh, that's a great read," she said with a smile. "I didn't know you liked Poe."

"Truthfully, I haven't read much of his work," Nanami crossed an ankle over his knee as he spoke. "I've read The Raven of course, and The Tell-Tale Heart, but that's about it."

"What kind of books do you usually read?" Himawari asked.

"I enjoy historical fiction and mystery - but I'll read almost anything with a decent plot and premise." He pressed a lip to his fingers as he thought about it. "Actually, I was just in the middle of reading F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby' before I was called away to Shibuya."

"That's a classic." Himawari smiled. "Have you read it before, or was that your first read through?"

"That was my first. Then again, I have a collection of books I still need to make time for." Nanami hid an involuntary yawn behind his hand. "Pardon."

"No worries - it's getting late. We should probably turn in for the night. Before we do," Himawari began. "Would you mind if I check on your burns?"

"Mm?" Nanami regarded her with surprise and curiosity. "You're not going to try to use your time reversal again, are you? I won't allow it - you've pushed yourself too far as it is."

"Oh, er - no... even if I had the energy, that wouldn't work. Too much time has passed since you first sustained these injuries," Himawari explained. "But there's power and magic in this world that has nothing to do with cursed energy."

"Oh?" Nanami raised an eyebrow. "Like?"

"Modern medicine." Himawari smiled. Nanami nodded in understanding. "In this case, a gel derived from my aloe vera leaves. It does wonders for burns. I know that they will never fully go away - these burns are far too intense for that - but with proper care, we can speed the healing process along."

"Have you done this before?" Nanami was genuinely curious, but also uncertain, generally preferring to see a doctor or a medical sorcerer when injured.

"On a much smaller scale, yes," Himawari answered honestly. "I've used it on animals a couple times when they've shown up with burns. It always works wonders, though; and it can bring some pain relief in the earlier days."

"If you're sure, I won't turn down the help." Nanami nodded in acceptance. "Is there anything you need from me?"

"Nope. Just go ahead and take a seat on the futon while I go and get the mixture ready," Himawari bowed respectfully and walked off to her patio garden from the sliding wooden slat door to her deck.

Nanami obeyed, settling on the edge of the mattress to wait. A minute later, she returned with several thick, green aloe vera leaves and a clean mixing bowl, setting them down on the counter. He couldn't see what she was doing from where he was, but she seemed to move with the confidence of someone who knew what she was doing.

"Alright; that should do it," Himawari sighed, taking a moment to wash her hands at the kitchen sink. "If we need more later, I can always mix up another batch."

She carried the bowl over to the futon and took a seat beside Nanami when she had a realization.

"Oh, er..." She said shyly.

"What is it?"

"I can't access your burns like this - with your shirt on, I mean." Himawari's cheeks went red with embarrassment as she spoke. "I'm sorry if this is awkward."

"Don't be absurd." Nanami unbuttoned his collared shirt and removed it, setting it neatly on the pillow. Himawari tried to avert her eyes, now feeling overly aware of how close she was to the sorcerer.

"Would you rather I start with your front, or your back?" She cleared her throat and busied her hands with the mixture, preparing to place the first layer.

"The back, I think," he replied, shifting his body to face away from Himawari, resting his knee on the surface of the futon. She slathered a handful of the gel onto her hands, hovering them over his skin and pausing.

"I should warn you; this will sting at first, but the soothing effects shouldn't take long to kick in. Just let me know if you need me stop, alright?" Himawari waited for a response and received a single nod. The moment she placed her hands on his shoulderblades, she felt his muscles tense as he took in a sharp inhale at the jolt of stinging pain shooting across his skin.

"Sorry..." she winced. Nanami simply nodded for her to continue. As she moved the gelatin around the surface of his skin, his tension slowly eased away and he let out a long, deep exhale of relief. "That's a little better, I hope."

Nanami closed his eyes as he allowed Himawari to ease the gel across his back, impressed with how gentle yet firm her touch was. "You're very good at that."

"Well, I'd better be - it's kind of my job, after all," she joked. "I'm a massage therapist and acupuncturist - part-time, anyway."

"Hm." Nanami's response was curt, but he couldn't help but imagine having a proper massage from Himawari and felt his temperature rise a little. He pushed away the thought almost as quickly as it had come. Stop it, you oaf. This woman is going out of her way to help you; this is no time to be thinking of that.

"That was a clever career choice," Nanami stated with a calm smile. "Utilizing the skills you already have in your day-to-day basis - it's very fitting considering your cursed tool."

"I thought so, too. Your back is fully covered." Himawari removed her hands from his skin a few minutes later to Nanami's silent dismay. "Would mind turning around so I can get started on the rest?"

Nanami nodded and shifted around to face her, looking down at her with an unreadable expression before casting his gaze to the sidd. She took more gelatin into her hands and hovered them over the burns on his ribs and stomach.

"Again, this will sting at first..." She placed her hands on him once more and felt his muscles contract, his eyes clenching shut with a low grunt. "Hang in there, Mr. Nanami. It will pass."

Sure enough, the pain passed as she worked her way up his torso, easing the gelatin across his skin and carefully spreading it with her palms, fanning her fingers out gently then relenting her pressure to reach back into the mixing bowl. She tried to pay no mind to way his well-toned body felt; the way his muscles contracted and relaxed under her touch - but she would be lying if she'd said it didn't have her feeling some sort of way. Just as his strong back had been, the rest of him was just as well-defined.

Stay professional, Hima. She gulped. Just like any other client.

She briefly worked her way up his neck before her hands arrived at his jawline. She gently applied the gelatin to his cheekbones and just by his lips, then up to his forehead just around his eyepatch.

"The skin by the eyes is far more sensitive than the rest of your facial skin," Himawari explained, her hand lingering on his shoulder while the other hovered over the medical tape across his left eye. "I'm going to remove the eyepatch so I can tend to the skin around the wound and disinfect it while I'm at it, alright?"

Nanami nodded and closed his remaining eye as her soft hands slowly removed the medical tape and gauze, setting it to the side. He could still feel the soreness around the socket, but he was certain this was only due to his burns, now.

Huh... Himawari started applying a thin layer to the tender skin as he let out an almost imperceptible wince. Even with half his body covered in scar tissue and an eye missing, he's still so handsome.

His hardened expression was no less intense with his remaining amber eye. His blonde hair fell flat over his furrowed brow, and his jawline was sharp enough to cut paper. He maintained an intimidating and powerful aire through his sheer strength of presence alone, yet Himawari felt completely safe in his company, despite the butterflies in her stomach.

All too soon, she knew had finished her task. As she started to remove her hands from his face, Nanami's long fingers caught hers and brought them back up to his cheek, his eye closed as he took in the feeling of her fingertips on his skin.

He seemed almost as surprised as she was at his reaction, removing his hands from her own immediately with a gulp.

"I'm sorry, Miss Sasaki..." He cleared his throat and looked away abashedly. "I don't know why I just grabbed your hands like that."

"Hah - no harm done!" Himawari's cheeks were beet red, but she waved the moment off with a laugh to try and break the tension. "I hope I wasn't too rough on you - burns can be a nasty business."

"Not at all. I feel much better, thank you."

Himawari carefully started fashioning a fresh new eyepatch from sterile gauze as Nanami regarded her, deep in thought.

"I want to ask you something," he began. Himawari nodded to signal she was listening as she cleaned off her hands with a damp towel she'd brought with her. "Why did you leave the program all those years ago? Surely you could have been a valuable Jujutsu healer with a few more years of study."

"Oh, er..." Himawari frowned, unpleasant memories flashing behind her eyes, the echoes of long-standing guilt and inadequacy circling within her mind. "I just... wasn't cut out for the life of a Jujutsu sorcerer. I was never able to keep a cool head in combat. I would have been dead weight no matter who they would have paired me with - and I certainly would never have been able to take on a high-level threat solo."

"Perhaps if you were paired with the right team mate, you may have felt differently."

"Like you?" Himawari joked, raising an eyebrow and flashing him a cheeky, bittersweet smile. "Trust me - you don't want to be dealing with a big nasty curse while you're stuck hauling me around because my knees buckled a block and a half ago."

That earned her a huff of either mild amusement or derision. She chose to change the subject.

"Looking at the state of those burns, they appear to be third-degree, though they were probably fourth-degree before my time reversal..." Himawari started sifting through her medical kit. "As you can already tell, the recovery process is... unpleasant, but you should be through the worst of it now."

She unpacked a sterile pack of gauze wrap and signaled for Nanami to extend his arm as she wrapped the gauze around his burned areas.

"Right now, your biggest risk factors are going to be infection and dehydration. The gelatin I used was instilled with a minor antibiotic, but we still need to be careful and keep things as clean as possible while your body works on repairing itself." As Himawari reached her arms around Nanami's back, he shuddered at the sensation of her breath across his neck. "Staying hydrated - that's your main job now. Beyond that, we can leave these bandages alone for a few days and check on your progress when it's time to let your skin breathe."

"Thank you, Miss Sasaki." Nanami bowed, meeting her soft smile with one of his own as she tied off the last of the gauze wrap.

Nanami and Himawari lingered on the futon for a moment. Nanami stared down at her soft features, accented by the glow of the golden lighting of the nearby paper lamp. He found his gaze drawn to her long honey-coloured eyelashes, then to the smattering of freckles on her cheeks, and finally to her peach-coloured lips, parted ever so slightly in a way that had him subconsciously leaning forward before he stopped himself.

Himawari seemed to shake off some sort of thought herself, rising to her feet with her back to the sorcerer.

"Well, I've leave you to it then, Mr. Nanami," she said with a bow. "I hope you sleep well. If you need anything, don't hesitate to wake me, alright?"

Before he could answer, she was skittering back to her room with a cheerful "good night!" before disappearing around the corner.

Nanami let out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding, lowering back onto the futon in silence, his mind moving at a mile a minute. Meanwhile, Himawari buried her blushing face into her pillow, attempting to shake the feeling of his hands pulling hers back to his face, and the way he had looked at her just a moment ago that had her reeling.

I'm reading way too much into this...

Part 3 | Part 5

[homoeroticvillain]

*grab u and shake u around* tell me some fun facts about ur ocs now!! especially funny ones

okay! please stop shaking me now. these will be from a mix of universes cause why not

- scar works a bunch of jobs cause he needs the money and clementine is too young to work. so this means he ends up working a lot of weird jobs like being the mascot for a burger place. but his favourite job he has is at a library, it doesn't pay much but its actually nice to do. also all the old ladies there fawn over him, which clementine makes fun of him for a lot.

- adam is my only oc with a f/o list and his interest is almost entirely in pathetic middle aged blonde guys. which is a very specific genre but he also enjoys tumblr sexymen. this all happened cause the one picrew i made him in had a body pillow option that had one with reigen on it.

- i have a group of ocs i don't talk about on here that were inspired by one centricide fanfic i was really into. its also one of the few oc groups that actually have a name, which is "politically incorrect" [as in that is their name]. i don't post about them for a variety of reasons but one of them is that i kinda took some of the ideas for them for other ocs. but i was considering making a dating sim for them at one point sorta as a joke. the main character is damien who is an avid 4chan user and all the other characters are all horrible people too in their own special ways <3 and despite all this they end up as fucked up friends. can you tell the fic was about the nationalists?

- crow has really bad allergies. like annoyingly bad. he'll try to intimidate someone but it ends up failing cause they keeps sniffling and his eyes are getting watery. usually the person he's talking to ends up taking pity on him and handing them a tissue.

- snow unironically listens to that weeb lofi stuff, like the stuff that has samples of anime girls saying random stuff. also the weeb hip hop stuff that has anime girls moaning in it or whatever. she is very much those overly pastel pink blogs with simple names with an anime pfp that everyone is scared of cause of the scary amounts of discourse they always end up posting about.

- robin has a dog! a st bernard named marshmallow. i love him with all my heart. he is a good boy. thats the whole fact

- slightly less funny one cause i am using this to just write random facts about my ocs i havent put anywhere. crow and dove are ex-partners [interpret the word partner however you would like] and i could list a billion reasons as to why they broke up. but a fun fact is that after breaking up the two talked about the relationship in incredibly different ways. dove romanticized it to no end while crow demonized it, realistically it was somewhere in the middle of that. this is me trying to explain how both amnesia was her name and thermodynamic lawyer can be about the same relationship.

okay thats it. i need to go back to answering asks on my phone cause i type way too much on my pc

[loptyrs-moved]

Can you talk more abt ur fandoms ocs? I like your writing a lot and would like to know more abt em

(part 1)

A Tangled RP story.

Featuring Rapunzel, Eugene, Varian, Judy(OC of @punkydodd ) , Robert and Emeline (my OC's)

***************

One night when the wind was blowing hard and the rain smattered against the windows, Rapunzel and her friends was all curled up together at Xaviers, listening to one of his many legendary tales.

This one told about a ghost that could be seen in the castle once every hundred years, however his knowledge was not enough to know why the ghost was there, just that it was, and that the particular night of this 100th night was coming soon.

Rapunzel was determined to seek this ghost out and see it for herself, who of her friends would be brave enough to follow with?

No one knows what they would meet.

*******

A few days later, Rapunzel was in full work of setting her plan to action of how to capture the ghost that would be, according to legend, show up, this very night in the ballroom, or at least she wanted to see it and perhaps even talk to it.

"There, that sure is a yummy looking cake! I would like to see the ghost passing by that without stopping!"

She said and dusted off her hands with a big excited grin.

“Uhhh...I’m pretty sure ghosts don’t eat cake Rapunzel”

Varian’s voice came from behind her. He had stopped by to check on and tweak his hot water invention as well checking on his friends.

"Oh nonsense! Who doesn't eat cake ? That's just plain crazy-talk."

Rapunzel said with a happy smile.

“Well technically ghosts don’t have a physical form, you know, cause they’re kinda...dead”

Varian chuckled a little awkwardly and rubbed the back his neck.

“But, I’m sure it appreciates the thought!”

He said with a smile and gave Rapunzel a thumbs up.

“Varian is right Raps.” Judy spoke, holding her tambourine. “I am quite positive that the spirit will tell us how they can be at peace.” Odette let out a honk while sitting on top of Judy’s head,

"Oh...well...they might not eat the cake....but at least they can look at it...."

Rapunzel grinned wider.

"Eeeeeeeh I CAN'T WAIT!"

Rapunzel squealed, twirled around and bounced.

Eugene let out a smile and a small chuckle of this. There is just something about her that can brighten up anyone’s life, almost anyone.

“Yeah! But are you sure it’s friendly though?”

Varian asked, a little cautious.

“I mean we don’t know how or why it’s here, for all we know it could be a ancient spirit out for revenge or something”

"Oh....but I've dealt with ghosts before....remember Ruthless Ruth and Eugenes ancestors...that went well, right ?"

Rapunzel laughed a bit.

"If cake doesn't lure it, we always have Judys amazing singing, right ? Oh oh should we build a trap ? Just in case ?"

“A trap?” Judy blinked. “What kind of trap are you think of? Will it work on a spirit?” She tilt her head.

“If it doesn’t work, I have every guard guarding each entrance if things get out of hand.” Eugene added. He pointed to a dozen royal guards standing by any entrance to the ballroom.

“I could probably whip up something”

Varian spoke up and crossed his arms with a little smug smile.

“I mean not to brag but I’m pretty good at setting up traps”

“I’ll take the first watch Sunshine.” Eugene said. “You and the other rest for a while.” He smiled at Rapunzel and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

"Aaaw thank you Eugene~"

She replied and nuzzled him a little bit.

"Okay Varian, you think you have time to whip up a trap before dark ?" She then said as she walked out of the ballroom with him and Judy, Pascal sitting on her shoulder.

“Just leave it to me! Oh! I need to make plans! Ah, I’ll see you guys later!”

Varian exclaimed before rushing off to his lab to prepare for his future trap.

"Alright...let's get pillows and blankets out Judy....we need to pick a good place for our stakeout ..."

Rapunzel said, stretching a bit.

“You got it Raps.” Judy give a thumbs up. Odette honk in agreement while rubbing her eyes.

*********

A few hours later, everyone was gathered in the castle again, waiting and waiting for the ghost to show up.

Varian was setting up the last part of his trap.

“Aaaaand done! I think this the biggest trap I’ve made yet!”

He smiled and crossed his arms, pretty proud of himself.

Judy looked up at the trap Varian made. Odette let out a bewildered honk.

“Whoa, Varian you've outdone yourself.” Judy said, staring at the trap.

"I hope it works”

Varian said and corrected his goggles a bit, leaning against the wall. He was getting curious about the ghost and what it wanted, he kinda also wondered what it was made of, maybe if his trap worked he could get a sample to study.

“So? What can we do while we wait for the ghost to appear?” Judy asked. She sat down on the floor and have her legs crossed.

"I don't know? I'm way too excited to sleep..." Rapunzel said and sat down.

"Play cards maybe ?"

“Cards sound good”

Varian replied and plopped down on the floor crosslegged, he placed two fingers to his mouth and whistled, his trusty raccoon friend popping its head out his satchel that he had placed on the floor and brought over a little bag of ham sandwiches before climbing up on the boy’s shoulders.

“I brought some sandwiches incase we get hungry”

He said and petted Ruddiger on the head.

Judy smiled. “Thanks Varian.” Odette sat on Judy’s lap, curl herself in a white ball.

Eugene smiled at the three while he is standing by the wall and his hands behind his back.

The gang played and talked and ate, however slowly they started to get tired and fall asleep one by one.

An hour before midnight there was some eerily, yet enchanting music that started to play slowly, it sounded far away and yet close.

Smoke started to seep in from the outside and slowly taking the form of a young woman in the middle of the room, she was dressed in a black dress, clearly in the style of hundreds and hundreds of years ago, her skin was pale.

She seemed to be waiting for something, but what ?

To be continued...
