Chrollo as your cat

You thought he could be useful against bugs and spiders? Wrong! He just watches and goes back to sleep. Loved playing with spiders since his kitten days.

Dents over your books covers and notebooks.

You’re certain you caught him engrossed in a novel once. When he noticed you there he went back to cat-ing. Tore a few pages for good mesure.

Hates dogs. And flies, mice, cats, rats, birds, hedgehogs, horses, goats (there can only be one), cows, oats, carrots, pencil cases, colored paper sheets—

Jumpscare 3000.

Stuff keeps disappearing around the house. Your snacks, money, exam notes, jewelry, pens.

The *Phantom*. For the first 3 years of owning him you could NEVER find his ass in the house. The only reason you can find him now is because he’s ran out of stuff to steal in his previous hiding spots and most rooms.

Neighborhood Terrorist: Neighbors don’t believe you have a cat, but their pets *know*. He bullies neighborhood cats and dogs when no one’s looking.

Knocks off your tea cups to get a taste because pawing the drink is dirty

Either a long-haired tuxedo (duh) or a hairless cat.

Coat’s always shiny and clean

Never meows

Always lies down so still when he sleeps that you’ve thought him dead far too many times

Scratches 3000

Keeps drinking the milk out of your cereal bowls when you’re not looking even tho it upsets his stomach.

Rubs his head and chin on cactuses, concrete and hedgehogs.

Leaves for 2 days if you pet any other cat. So great, not only do people think you’re a liar but they also think you hate animals!

Dead rats and birds in front of your door.

Has the ‘call to the mothership!’ moments a bit too often for your comfort.

He’s just a normal cat really.

He doesn’t meow but he imitates your intonation out of boredom.

Dainty af.

Might be slightly smaller in size than most adult cats.

firefighter!bucky x bartender!buck AU

Gale works at the haunt of the local firefighters to put food on the table and a roof over his (and his cat’s) head while he studies for his doctorate.

Bucky’s ex-military, having enlisted to the Air Force straight out of high school, but is now a firefighter and dedicated patron of the station’s most beloved dive bar. Even more so when he meets who he’s convinced is the love of his life.

It becomes a running joke that Gale refuses to both A) wear a name tag and B) tell Bucky his name.

So obviously the only choice for Bucky is to flirt with him shamelessly and relentlessly every time he’s in the bar. Pulling his metaphorical pigtails and running away.

Also: “Well if you’re not gonna tell me your name, suppose we could just share mine.” And so, ‘Buck’ was born.

Even the other bartenders start calling him Buck. When they know his actual name!!

Becomes known around the station as Bucky’s teetotaller barmaid crush. Antics, mutual pining, and falling in love ensue.

Featuring:

Curt, Douglass, Demarco, Veal, and Hambone as fellow firefighters.

‘Chick’ Harding as Station Chief.

Crosby, Brady, Blakely, and Helen as fellow bar staff. Rosie’s also here, Buck’s good friend from college who comes and hangs out at the bar often to catch up and work on legal cases on the quiet nights, etc.

Jack Kidd as the bar manager. Of course.

Gretta Keene absolutely ruining a friendship over Connor Bowers— a guy she’s super into who only visits Derry during the summer.

Gretta Keene over a year later not even having feelings for Connor anymore but still holding a grudge because of course she does.

Gretta Keene queen of The Audacity for getting mad at her now EX friend having a crush on Connor; did either of them even end up with Connor?

Of course not.

(Btw when I say Connor Bowers I say it as an identifier bc tbh I doubt that’s his last name lmao)

it’s both my least and most favorite thing about tim. constantly tormented by fic using the “rich archaeologists don’t have time for their son” thing when rich archaeologists are an oxymoron (in the postOh Wait Ethics Are Good world) and the kind of neglect you would expect from that is entirely opposite of what the comics show…. “they never took me on excavations :(“ kid your parents most likely are commuting ridiculous distances to teach at a school that underpays them and can only get grants and permissions enough to do fieldwork in the off season. you would be out of schoo but most likely foreign countries would not be fans of a little white kid running around willy nilly. “my parents are always busy jetting around the world from site to site” . you’re just being silly now do specializations just not exist??? is drake industries an extremely weird international CRM firm?????? god i love fiction that’s way too confident in what they think an industry looks like. dc comics thinks archaeology is exactly the same as it was in the 20s and fandom is EVEN worse

i’ve had this full-time job since june — and before that i had a part-time job as a bookseller. you would think with regular hours for the first time in forever i would have the energy to write?????

[tarantula-hawk-wasp]

Need to change my thinking bc it’s not sustainable to think that I need to Do Something like draw or write or watch a movie every day when I get home from work

[what-even-is-sleep]

Trying to get ahead of an unsustainability cycle that might be starting up this week,,, (I start work).

[micamicster]

Btw writing on the latest fic stalled massively while I was on my last rotation however plan to jumpstart it by taking a lil “research trip” when I’m back in the city (forcing my sister to take the F to queens and back with me <3)

[icezansky]

uhhh update mechanic!Maverick hallmark movie is now definitely going to be 3 parts

[obstinaterixatrix]

taking the train here does suck during high traffic times but honestly I do enjoy being on the train for about an hour when it’s empty

[crossbackpoke-check]

a doc of omega yamo being a nuisance, you say?

well…

[hoyatype]

desperately hoping that when i move into my new apt and my 1.5–2h commute (one way…) is down to 20min…i’ll be able to read and write and daydream and plan and aspire to something greater than the ordinary placidity of each day…i want so badly to be working on something for myself; i fear that i won’t be able to make the time, and that the years will pass without me getting any closer to my dreams

send “grip” to grip my muse’s jaw in your muse’s hand

Jaehera smiled vividly when she saw her uncle even before he bent down to the tiny. Hold and took her face in his hands. Criston had insisted he was busy, but she knew that her Uncle would always have time for her. Particularly when she had just broken her fever. Still, his frenzied eye soften s at her presence. Joy and mischief alighting in her eyes as a picture brandished at her side. Being bed bound had drove the young girl wolf. She wanted to see the dragons among playing with her brothers. But she had taken the time to print the memory of Vhagar into the page for her uncle who had come to visit her all through out her illness. She loved her father, but it was always clear her uncle had stepped up into that role and took care of her mother. The smile nearly hurt. Her mother teased her about being a sunshine. “I knew you wouldn’t be too busy for me. I was hoping for an audience, Uncle.”

it’s currently storming nonstop here (southeast us mention 🗣️‼️ helene please don’t cut off my power) and for some reason that’s been the thing making me most productive and creative in the past couple of days? i’m stuck indoors and my brain’s like “if i don’t write 50000 words right now i’ll Die”. as a treat.

I need Joker to fear Captain Marvel so dam badly. Let me explain.

So we know how we, as a community, all accepted that Billy Batson / Captain Marvel is the most egregious Tax Evader of DC (for this who don’t know, there was a whole poll and our boy Billy won out of literally everyone, including supervillains).

And in the Batman Cartoon (and some comics), it’s stated that Joker is terrified of the IRS.

I think you see the picture.

Joker: I may be crazy enough to fight Batman, but I am NOT crazy enough to deal with the IRS

Captain Marvel: lol imagine doing your taxes

Everyone present: w h a t

*clip goes viral*

IRS Agent: So, Captain Marvel was it? According to this footage, you have no been paying your taxes

Marvel: prove it.

IRS Agent: What?

Marvel: to make me pay anything, you need to know who I am and what’s to pay. I got nothing to pay.

IRS Agent: that’s not-

Marvel: not even Batman knows who or what I am. For all you know, I could be living in a multidimensional rock situated in, quite literally, the middle of nowhere.

IRS Agent: …

IRS Agent: I- w h a t

*some time later*

IRS AGENT: YOU BORE A STRIKING RESEMBLANCE TO LATE CC BATSON. SOMEONE WHO HASNT PAID TAXES IN 70 YEARS! YOU OWE US TAXES

Marvel: no I’m not

IRS Agent: Don’t try-

Marvel, holding the lasso of truth: I am not CC Batson, I don’t owe you shit. Plus he’s totes dead so can’t be me.

IRS Agent: DAMMIT

Joker: This mofo is crazy! Crazy? I was crazy onc-

*later*

IRS Agent, in Fawcette: why is none telling me anything!!!! You, Child, what do you know of your local hero?

Itty Bitty Billy Batson: lmao aren’t you that Agent harassing Cap

IRS Agent: it’s not harassment if he owes the government taxes

Billy: good luck taxing anyone in Fawcette lmao, magic doesn’t give a shit about that. Also we have different currency’s that just switches on random basis. So unless the government takes Drachmas, you’re cooked

IRS Agent, on the verge of tears: this has never happened before

Lex Luthor: WRITE THAT DOWN WRTE THAT DOWN

Bonus:

Billy: you know, I know someone who has been commuting tax evasion, tax fraud and more charges. His name is Ebenezer Batson. That’s E B E N Z E R and he lives just outside of Fawcette. Can’t miss him.

IRS Agent, who has a fridge with ‘CC Batson’ and is more than happy to get old man prey: thanks kid

Bonus 2:

Billy: Sweet, the IRS put my uncle in jail and the police gave me back my inheritance. Now to convert this into Fawcette currency (they will not be taxing this money)

Joker, visibly weeps
