This is so true, so well-put, and so alarming.
I talk about this constantly but one of the greatest things that ever happened to me was the neighborhood where I lived during my elementary school years. You wouldn't call it a walkable area as an adult, but for a kid it was perfect: I lived on a quiet cul-de-sac, within walking distance of most of my friends; the park (with playgrounds and nature areas); the public pool; my family's church; and Baskin Robbins. My parents were also deeply committed to giving my siblings and I reasons to be outside, so we had a largeish backyard with a playset and trampoline, and a treehouse and sandbox my dad built, himself; and my parents kept a garage full of various riding toys (bikes, scooters, skates etc), sports equipment, and stuff like sidewalk chalk and water guns. (When I say they were committed, I mean they were committed.)
So that's how I spent my childhood. I started by playing in the back yard; moved to the cul-de-sac as I got a little older and could be trusted around the occasional car; and by the time we moved away, I had fairly free rein to wander the neighborhood, bike around, visit my friends, go to the park etc, all without a phone of any kind, as long as my parents knew ~generally how to find me. I don't think I could be described as a super confident kid - I've always been a bit cautious as a person and there were definitely other factors that impacted my confidence especially socially - but like, I was always in these situations where I was navigating choices on my own, away from my parents, and where I was fairly self-governing.
And then we moved! Far away from that perfect little neighborhood, to the other side of the country, in a patch of suburbia in the middle of the woods where nobody my age lived and nothing was within walking distance and my parents didn't want me walking through the woods anyway, all right as I transitioned into my teenage years in earnest. There were a lot of things about that move that were difficult for me, but I think the sudden, sharp loss of independence was maybe the worst. All of the confidence I'd built up was gone. I became completely dependent on my parents immediately. it's not really anybody's fault, but I had a lonely several years until my parents put me in online high school, I made friends, and I started to Be Online for the first time in my life (and I've been Online™️ ever since 😬)
Anyway. I guess I've seen both sides of this? And like, my elementary school years weren't perfect and I had my share of small and big troubles. But I was generally happy, navigating friendships and making decisions and spending time outside and around people and getting plenty of fresh air and exercise every day, just playing. Vs being utterly dependent on busy adults and not seeking out opportunities just because I don't know what's out there and don't have the confidence to go for it even if I did.
I don't know where I'm going with this besides that I feel awful for kids. Like actual kids as well as teenagers. They all deserve better; they deserve independence and autonomy to a developmentally appropriate degree, and they deserve time outside and spaces where they can hang out and be themselves in public with other people their age. This situation is unfair to them on so many levels. It's not their fault that they are the way that they are. Kids don't get a choice, nor is it their responsibility. It's adults' jobs to make sure kids have what they need for healthy development, and it's society's responsibility to support parents in providing their children with what they need, and kids have been repeatedly failed by both of these groups since before they were born. It's not their fault.
if pointing out that the age of getting a phone decreasing along with the prevalence of short form video as the dominant form of social media content during the most significant collective educational gap in recent history all of which happened during one of the most significant windows of psychological development in a human lifetime has had a deleterious effect on the attention spans, self-regulation, impulse control, social skills, tech literacy, and actual literacy of zoomers and gen alpha. if pointing out that that is a real and serious problem makes me a boomer and an old crank who has fallen for “kids these days” propaganda someone find me a porch and a rocking chair so i can yell at you to get off my lawn
#talking about this makes me feel like i sound old. bc kids don't run wild anymore like that. it sounds like i grew up in another world#i think being homeschooled also played a significant role here. i have mixed feelings about the experience overall#but when it comes to me developing an open and curious nature and allowing interest and curiosity to drive me#it was REALLY good for that#and i think my early years of being homeschooled had a huge positive impact on how i interact with the world#plus it left me with a lot more time for playing outside. which. i think that that was also super beneficial for me long term and short term#I'm scared to have kids bc of all of this. do i need to move to the Netherlands or something so my kids can have a good childhood

hi fellow neurodivergent people
i hate to jump on the "i think i might have adhd" bandwagon, but if i think i might have adhd, how do i bring it up to my care team as a 28-year-old cis woman who was a massive overachiever until i couldn't keep up the ruse anymore?
#idk what happened when i got laid off it seriously is like my brain BROKE i cannot do anything#i have not done much of anything in a year. and i think it's bc my coping mechanisms were 1. self-medicate but ESPECIALLY do that while#2. overcommitting. because it kept me busy and distracted. i excelled in school because i could focus on it without it giving me anxiety#school was honestly almost the only thing that didn't give me anxiety as a kid. and i never felt quite Right like i didn't feel like i fit#in with my peers. i've always felt like a human being that isn't a person. like something's not quite right. i excel but i feel like i'm#doing it wrong because it's SO hard for me. i graduated my BA and BS programs with a 4.0#but it came with the cost of alienating all of my friends and family and becoming really reclusive and weird and distant and anxious#but i really just wanted to do well at the one thing i felt i was good at. which doesn't seem like something i should take note of#idk. my life feels like a claustrophobic box. i feel like i'm buried alive and i can't get myself out because i can't work#because i can't focus. but maybe i'm just stupid and lazy and want everyone to take care of me forever so i can continue laying around doin#fuck all. which i do a lot because i'm chronically ill. idk. like is there ground to stand on here. i literally have zero friends rn#and i feel so so so sos so anxious any time i am working because i worry i'm going to do something wrong or forget to do something or make#lots of mistakes that get me in trouble. i'm so scared of making mistakes it keeps me from doing anything at all. but i get so anxious bc#i'm not doing anything! i'm wasting time! and i can't focus on anything when i AM working because i have to get up and pace#like i HAVE to move around or i start to feel like i need to peel my skin off like i'm an orange#like. is it anything at all. or is this just me being someone who has Other Stuff going on

need to see Jason showing up at reader’s door. Or Damian’s attempts at befriending reader.
I legit think Damian shows up at their front door first. Jason acts a little like a creep at first, only sneaking through their window at night bc he's scared of their reaction.
I mean. He's supposed to be dead. And he had forgotten about you for like, 2 years! Will you be mad at him like you are at Bruce? Because he did do the same thing that he did...
There's also how he's changed, too. Sure he wasn't the easiest kid to deal with, ever, but now he's...he's kinda fucked up. Night terrors, reactions to sudden movements, more violent in general...of course he'd never hurt you, and he's better than he was at first, but you aren't dirtied like the rest of the family is.
You've never raised a genuine weapon. Your child self was fine being pushed around. Preferred it, even. Instead of blowing up at your brothers and father, you'd chosen to take the quiet way out. Hell, you don't even hate them! You're softer and sweeter than the rest of them, especially him, could ever be.
Maybe he gets too complacent, letting himself in night after night. Feeling overconfident in his ability to not wake you up. Forgetting that you also have trauma that gives you night terrors, causing you to wake up in a fit only to see Red Hood standing in your room.
It isn't pretty. You're convinced he's there to kill you, at first. As some sort of vengeance for the actions of your mother, given she wasn't here to take the divine punishment.
It's a bad move. He knows it is. He knows from experience that it isn't going to help, and will just make your panic attack worse.
But...damn it, that's his favorite sibling! It's ripping his heart in two to watch them crying.
So, without thinking twice, he ends up technically restraining you in his arms for the time it takes for you to stop struggling. It's less that you eventually gather your bearings, and more that you run out of energy to keep struggling.
Of course you don't recognize his form, or his voice. He had died while you were in high school, and now you were in your early twenties. Puberty had hit him like a truck. Or a crowbar, either or-
"Pleasepleaseplease- I'm sorry, I'm so sorry- I didn't- I didn't know, I'm sorry-"
His grip tightens, pulling a whimper of pain from you. His face cracks beneath the cowl.
"Nonononono- you don't need to be sorry. I fucked up, you're okay. You didn't do anything wrong." He tries, but you're still too far gone.
He doesn't even mean to reveal himself, but slips up when he calls you by a childhood nickname. Maybe your friends also use it, maybe it was exclusive to him. But even in your haze, you start piecing things together.
Known vigilante aligned with Batman...who knows Nightwing, Red Robin, and the new baby Robin that recently has become attached to you. Sure, maybe Bruce had picked up an older orphan you missed, but they wouldn't know to call you that unless...
"...Jay?"
He BREAKS at that. Losing grasp of his strength, keeping you so trapped against him you're half convinced you'll meld together.
There will be words exchanged later. Explanations, regrets, and even more anger directed at the rest of the family. But it takes a few...hours to get through all the conflicting emotions.
#will do the damian prompt at a later date#neglected batfam#yandere batfam#bat tag#neglectful batfam#yandere batboys#yandere dc

spencer reid x male! non-bau! reader
where reader is a paramedic or maybe a firefighter, and he & spencer have been dating for a while, but spencer’s been keeping reader & their relationship a secret because he hasn’t come out to the team yet, and he scared to or smth..
one day spencer walks into the round table room late, and the team is questioning him suspiciously, because the last time reid came to work late, he was using (but in reality, he misses his alarm bc he wasn’t home; he was at r’s place).
after the team meeting spencer realizes he forgot something at r place (badge, bag, glasses, idk). and just as he’s asking hotch to stop by ‘a friends’ house to get what he left, reader shows up and brings it to him, saying something like, “I was on my way to work and I saw it lying on the couch”
( optional : spencer kisses r out of habit, forgetting the team is watching, and comes out to them, and their all reassuring and fluffy with him )

My Darling Doctor
SPENCER REID X MALE!READER
An FBI agent and a Paramedic together, it wasn't meant to be a secret. How will the team react finding out?
❝THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME.❞ -L. Frank Baum.
Spencer was already late to work but it wasn't his fault that he was a few minutes late, he bit the inside of his cheek as he looked out the window of the train. He had already told Hotch that he was on his way over.
This morning had just distracted him a lot.
"C'mon N/N, I've got to head to work." The brunette haired male whispered to his boyfriend who laid next to him with his arm wrapped around his waist, the (H/C) haired male just buried himself deeper into his neck. "I need to go."
The other male frowned with his eyes still closed when he heard his boyfriend but made no move to let go.
"I know you're awake."
A sigh escaped his lips as the taller/smaller male opened his eyes and looked at him. "Do we have to? We could just stay here." he asked.
"Yes we do, you and I both have work." Spencer pointed out to which the other man groaned. Y/N gave him a kiss on his cheek before getting out of the bed, he watched his partner stretch his arms and move towards the bathroom. "I'll make it up to you when I finish work!"
"You better! Now, get your smart ass in this shower!"
He couldn't contain his laughter as he followed his boyfriend into the shower.
Spencer smiled a bit when thinking about his boyfriend, though his thoughts were cut off when the elevator doors opened and he realized he had gotten off the train; he was already at work.
He slightly jumped when he saw the group waiting before the elevator as he stepped out. Were they heading out?
"So... are you gonna tell us why you were late?" Derek asked him with his arms crossed. The question had him confused for a moment. "Cause, kid, you are never late."
The brown-haired male was about to say something until Penelope cut him off. "The last time you were ever late was when you were using, are you back?" she asked as she gently grabbed his hands and gently squeezed them. "Please tell us you aren't-"
"No! Why would you guys think I'm using again?" The taller male questioned as he pulled his hands out of her hands. "I just missed my alarm-"
"You never miss your alarm, Spence." JJ pointed out to him.
Hotch was quiet while the rest of the group asked questions, he kept his eyes on the younger man before he asked a question of his own. "Did you forget anything?"
Spencer was quiet when he heard the question before he patted himself.
He forgot his bag. With his badge and glasses.
Everything was in his bag and he had a panicked look on his face when he realized he had forgotten his bag.
He stayed quiet for a moment before he looked back at his Chief. "Is...it possible I could quickly go to my friend's house?" he asked, the others were quiet at that question. "I was....staying with him and left my bag there on accident."
Before Hotch could answer him, the elevator door opened again and there stood Y/N with his bag in his hand. A smile formed on the other's face as he saw Spencer and he quickly jogged to the group.
"Hey babe! You left your bag on my couch, I already let my Chief know that I'm gonna be a few minutes late." The (H/C) haired male giggled though his Chief was understanding. "I made sure all of your stuff is inside so your badge, glasses and-"
Spencer was relaxed hearing that all of his stuff was inside of the bag yet he stopped his partner from speaking by kissing him on the lips.
A surprised look was on the paramedics face before his smile returned.
"If this is how you are going to thank me everytime I give you something, I should get into the habit of doing this~!"
The taller/smaller male shook his head. "Thank you for bringing my bag." he thanked his boyfriend, he kissed the other on the cheek since the two of them had usually gotten into the habit of kissing either each others foreheads or cheeks when something was done. "I need to get used to bringing my stuff with me when I leave your house."
"I'm glad I caught you before you left!" Y/N gently reached for his hand before kissing the taller/smaller's cheek. "Now I've gotta get going soon but before I do..."
The Paramedic smiled at the group as he waved at them. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you guys and I wish I could have a proper conversation with you all but I must go." he squeezed Spencer's hand before letting go. "Though, when you guys get back and whenever I finish work, let's get a drink."
That was when Y/N left, without letting a single one of them speak.
Derek's expression was surprised before he pulled twenty dollars out of his pocket and hand it to Emily, who had a smug look on her face.
"You have got to tell us on the plane how you two met and got together." The dark-haired woman said to him, the rest of the group got out of their shocked daze because they had realized their Spencer had a partner.
Penelope smiled at the younger man. "We are very happy for you! He seems like a sweetheart." she said.
Derek chuckled as he patted his back. "How long have you been hiding him from us? Afraid we would scare him off?"
"No...I was scared he'd scare you all..." Spencer muttered to which the others laughed.
Y/N had scared him when they first met and somehow convinced him into a relationship.
Hotch had a small smile on his face at the conversation before he shook his head and got back to the case at hand. "You are late so we'll go over the case on the jett." he spoke as the group began walking again. "Let's go."
It was quiet while they make their way to the private jett until Derek decided to ask something when they had gotten to the jett.
"So....does he top you or do you top him...?"
JJ and Emily gently hit Derek for asking such a personal question, David rolled his eyes and shook his head as he sat down.
"You don't just ask that kind of question!!"
"You aren't winning our other bet like this!!"
Spencer had a small smile on his face since it felt nice that the team didn't think of him any different as he grabbed the case file before he paused in front of where Derek was sitting.
The slightly older man looked confused for a moment at the younger man.
"We switch, if you want more than talk to him yourself." He answered, Derek's eyes widened when his question was answered and he was going to ask more as Spencer moved to sit across from him/
Hotch looked at the rest of them. "Let's focus on the case and talk about Reid's love life later."
And now their brains were back on the case.
Meanwhile....
Y/N was currently in cloud nine while thinking about kissing Spencer again when the man got home, his own team was shaking him awake.
He wouldn't wake up until he heard they needed to head out.
The (H/C) haired man couldn't wait for Spencer to get home as he thought about the things they would do once the other's case was over.
The two were definitely adorable.
Might be clinging to each other when the case was over, Y/N already had the day off when his boyfriend would be coming home.
"HELP HELP, I'M BLEEDING OUT."
That's when Y/N woke up from his daze and he quickly sat up before realizing his team were playing a prank on him.
"Oh fuck you lot..."

Any scenarios of how Sam would react with Vinnie being sick as fuck?
Bc I totally remember of having a episode of me going to the hospital bc I couldn't stop throwing up as a kid, and my parents went crazy (obviously). But I'm curious of how Sam would react with such bad circumstances ;)
It’s late at night when SAM MONROE jerks awake to the sound of Vinnie's constant whimpers. His little boy, usually a bundle of sleepy snuggles, drooly mouth and all-time moving, was now restless in his arms, tiny, pudgy fists gripping Sam’s shirt. Groggy teenager tried everything to soothe him - running a hand down Vinnie’s back, kissing his palms, yet nothing seemed to work.
“What’s up, buddy?” he mutters, voice still rough with sleep. But when he finally pressed his palm to Vinnie’s forehead, all the grogginess left his body.
The kid’s burning up.
“Shit,” Sam curses under his breath, sitting upright so fast he nearly jolts Vinnie. Heart pounds as he cradled the boy even closer, looking down at his flushed, scrunched-up face. “Hey, hey, it’s okay,” voice shaky. “I got you, okay? You’re fine. You’re…” He trails off, panic cursing through his veins
Vinnie lets out a weak little whine, burying his face in sam's chest, which only made Sam’s stomach drops. He didn't know what to do, and the realization of his own stupidity crawled at him, making him feel sick. He’s seventeen. How the hell is he supposed to know how to take care of a sick baby?
Without thinking, he stumbled out of bed, arms wrapped around the toddler, and heads straight to his mom’s room. He doesn’t even knock—just bursts in without any care
“Mom! Mom, wake up!” voice is loud, frantic. He’s rocking Vinnie slightly, trying to keep him calm even as he’s falling apart himself.
His mom bolts upright, squinting in the dark. “Sam? What’s going on?”
“He’s—he’s sick, Mom. He’s really warm, and he’s not…fuck.. He’s not okay!” Sam blurts out, words tumbling over each other. “What do I do? I don’t—shit, I don’t know what to do!”
His mom is already getting out of bed, telling Sam's stepdad to stay in bed and not interrupting unless it's needed. She took Vinnie from him gently, brushing a hand over the baby’s damp curls. “Okay, first of all, breathe, Sam. Freaking out isn’t going to help him.”
“I’m not freaking out,” Sam snaps, though his hands are shaking as he runs them through his hair. “I just—he’s so small, Mom, and he’s burning up. What if it’s something bad? What if—”
“Sam,” his mom interrupts, voice firm. “I need you to get the thermometer from the bathroom. Now.”
Sam doesn’t even argue. He’s back in seconds, thrusting the thermometer into her hand. His mom takes Vinnie’s temperature, brow furrowing slightly.
“It’s a fever, but it’s not dangerously high,” she says, glancing at Sam. “We’ll give him some medicine to bring it down, okay? Can you hold him while I get it?”
Sam doesn’t need to be told twice. He scoops Vinnie back into his arms, cradling him close. “You hear that, buddy? Medicine’s gonna fix you up, okay?” voice cracks at the end, and he pressed his lips to Vinnie’s sweaty forehead.
His mom returns with the medicine and a damp cloth. Sam holds Vinnie steady while she gives him the dose, whispering soft praises to the whiny boy. Vinnie whimpers but swallows it, and Sam feels a tiny pang of relief.
“Now keep him cool and comfortable,” his mom instructs, handing Sam the cloth. “And try to get him to drink some water.”
Sam nodded, carrying Vinnie back to his room. Once they’re there, he sets to work like a man possessed. He grabs two extra blankets, wrapping them snugly over his duvet to keep Vinnie extra warm. He rubs the cloth gently over Vinnie’s forehead and neck
“Stupid daycare,” he grumbles. “Bet it was those snot-nosed kids, spreading their germs everywhere. Shoulda known better than to trust them with you.” He pressed another kiss to Vinnie’s head, fingers brushing through his curls.
“You scared me, Little Man,” he whispered. “Don’t ever do that again, okay?”

hi bunny! i hope you're doing well!
right now i'm thinking about price finding out you're pregnant before you have the chance to tell him. maybe he was out of the house when you took the test and you left it on the bathroom sink ): maybe you took a nap after having a minor freak out about it and he finds the test and wakes you up by rubbing his hands on your tummy ):
idk why my brain is rotting with price and pregnant!reader or having kids rn but that's what i'm dealing with
no bcs he would be so cute and sweet about it! im doing okay and hope life is being super nice to you!!
- he's a little glad he found out the way he did because it allowed him to sob in the bathroom without you watching. (he convinced himself if he just got it all out then, he wouldn't cry later when you talked about it...)
- starts to worry straight away. you took the test and immediately went to bed? not the most encouraging sign. you weren't trying for a baby, but he knew you both wanted them eventually. he was elated, and he was scared you didn't feel the same
- takes advantage of your nap to make you some tea and grab you a snack in case you need them upon waking
- he wants to let you rest, but also the energy building inside of him makes him want to talk it over now, whether it's to celebrate with you or soothe you
- he has to steady himself and give himself a talking to, one he usually reserves for pre-battlefield jitters, because this moment is pivotal in your relationship and he wants to get it right
- slides into bed next you, and you don't immediately wake. he takes a moment to hold you close, take in the feel of your body against his and get lost in the fantasy of what's coming next. you're going to swell with his child, decorate a nursery together, have a little boy or girl bless your life--he hopes.
- he's fascinated and thrilled by the idea of the life already growing inside you, and his hands find their way to your stomach, caressing reverently when your child is growing.
- the warmth of his hands and the soothing motions gently pull you from sleep, and you feel a great sense of relief wash over you knowing john is beside you. from the way his hands move across your skin, you know he knows.
- immediately you kiss him, desperate to pour your love into him and to feel soothed by his kisses.
- (and if the two of you decide to celebrate by having john fuck you and fill you again then...)

I think I already need more on Modern Athena
very fair XD
Some funfacts (why do i have the feeling I'm just gonna dump Athena's trauma again)
Metis died in a car-wreck when Athena was only a couple of years old. She had been raising Athena on her own until then because Zeus very ironically accused her of cheating and Athena not being his kid. (Which isn't true, you can tell from how alike Ares and Athena look.) Athena was in the car as well and was cut out of the wreck by firefighters (with an axe because mythology. sorry Ath). She has no memory of it but she doesn't have her own car to this day, she takes the bus or Ares drives.
Ares is never viewed that way, but he is in almost every way the more functional sibling. He takes to living on his own incredibly well right away, he loves cooking, has his routines, just has life down. Athena can cook, but she only does so when it's for both of them, not just for herself. Ares is very often like do you even know people are supposed to have three meals a day? (Her standard reply is "Maybe I'd know if I'd studied medicine instead")
Speaking of, Athena studies Law. She is not too happy with it but it's what her father expected and now she's like four semesters in so we ain't quitting now. She is good at it ofc, she's an academic prodigy, but it is really not good for her
Athena's boarding school was located by a lake (not a safety hazard at all) She knew how to swim, but a couple of the kids pushed her in once and held her under to scare her, and she stayed the hell away from bodies of water ever since.
Ares' and Athena's last name is Dean bc it's close in sound to (pan-)theon lol Aphrodite's last name is Vincent bc it's close in sound to Venus, and yes, both of these will only be used as "Miss Dean" bc saying "Athena Dean" makes my skin crawl lmao (also yes I know these are American names bc this AU is very much for fun so I'm setting it in "Hollywood America" to cut down on research)
Athena has an owl plushie her Mom made for her by hand. She inherited her Mom's sewing machine and alters and fixes all the clothes in her family
Both of the siblings are into sports, though Athena has a lot less time for it. She's the agile one, has pretty impressive rockclimbing skills and used to be in fencing class in school bc that boarding school was bougie af. Ares is more of a gym guy and does martial arts, he's in a new dojo now bc of the move, but he used to train the younger kids and would like to do that again soon.
Athena works part-time as a transcriptionist to pay her half of rent. She is very efficient and fast with it which is good to have any amount of free-time. When times are particularly difficult she takes up odd jobs here and there. I am still struggling what job I will have Ares train in bc technically I should put him in the military but then he'd be in a military camp and I want my war sibs to live in their lil apartment together :(
Zeus is def the kind of person who bemoans the amount of child support he has to pay when he is a) filthy rich bc inheritance and b) could just keep it in his pants.
Athena is the one who loves olives, Ares is the one who hates them XD
hope this quenches some of the thrist hehe
also i still don't have a name for this AU it goes by #placeholder tag for now :,)

falling asleep with hobie brown! (sfw)
huge thanks to @michelleart8 for helping me choose
huuhhh title pretty self explanatory lmao
idk if i'll make this with other characters but like
yea :3
(half fully written fic half headcanons ?) (yknow what i'll do both)
bit of hurt comfort towards the hug scene? idk
also reader and hobie are in an implied established relationship
(word count: 250/300)
it was one of the many nights you spent waiting for hobie to come back home. with the two of you being spider people, you had a very few moments together.
but it didn't stop you from being in love.
coming home later than your boyfriend, or at least you thought you did, you took endless precautions to not make any noise. (which tbh doesn't make any sense tbh let's js say you're a quiet person)
just in case, you know, he did come home earlier than you...
the first thing that hit you as soon as you entered your appartment was that the window - which you often left open when you sleep so that your boyfriend could sneak in without waking you up - was closed.
you didn't pay it no mind as you thought it was the wind.
you headed to the bathroom to get into your pyjamas, where actually were one of hobie's old t'-shirts- which smell reminds you of home.
you then go to the kitchen to get a midnight snack, your all time favorite.
as you turned around, you notice the presence of your boyfriend.
"hobie? is something wrong?" you ask as you run to hug him.
he gave in the hug, shoving his head into your shoulder.
"so... tired... " he mutters, "glad i'm home..."
it was no surprise: the pressure of being a spider-person was extremely high. even though hobie tried his best to hide it, but even he needed to let it out sometimes.
(time for hcs bc idk how to truly describe the scene + it'll be easier)
i feel like he takes all the room there is on the bed like he'd be in some starfish position
somehow you're always touching him whether he's the big spoon or with your head on his chest or his arm around your shoulders
if you're scared of storms he would hug you close and confort you
"it's ok honey, it can't hurt you as long as i'm with you"
he plays with your hair when he can't fall asleep and wonders how non black people's hair work
if you're black/ a person of color he'd go like "ooo their hair is so cool :0
he secretely likes being the little spoon but he never asks for it
"ya can't sleep huh? want me to sing a sothing melody for ya?" (don't judge i have no idea how british people talk)
he always asks you if he can move if you're laying on him - if you're asleep he just doesn't
I KNOW HE WOULD CONFORT YOU IF YOU HAD A NIGHTMARE
"y'had a bad dream ? c'mhere i'll comfort you"
he braids your hair when he can't fall asleep
idk i feel like he only feels at peace in smalls moments like this when he's with you
also when the two of you can't sleep he plays you songs on his accoustic guitar (idk i feel like he's been given one when he was a kid and that's how he started learning)
maybe holding hands under the blankets? also you conforting him after a very tiring day he'd have his head on your lap and he'd fall asleep like that
he probably pushed you out of the bed more than once
"what the fuck are you doing on the floor??" but then he'd know it's his fault and js laugh about it
that's all i got for now i think i'm v tired atm i'll probably edit this later or do a part tO but like xdd hope you enjoyed ;3

hi!! if you're accepting requests rn could you pls write just pure angst of azul with a younger sibling who he was super close to before, but when their parents got divorced they grew distant bc the sibling went to live with their dad instead of with him and his mom. then a few years later sibling ends up attending nrc and azul recognizes them and is excited to talk to them again only to discover that they're not the same as before.
rlly loved your scared younger sibling fics. they gave me chest pains bc of how damn sad they were. keep up the good work :)
Brother Knows Best
Note: OMG!! What is this!? I, Lux, FINALLY finishing something and posting it?! Has a miracle truly happened?!
Anyway, I'll just write the sibling of this one as a year younger than Azul, and the sibling was also be an octopus merfolk. I'm going to mention the reader having interests in some stuff, so please don't get offended if it doesn't apply to you. You can always just replace the traits I put as a trait of yours!
And imma just use Ashengrotto as the family name, cuz idk if Ashengrotto was the last name of Azul's bio father, or step-father, or the maiden name of his mother.
Warning/s: Parents divorcing, Split custody, Angst, Spoilers to Azul's backstory and past, Spoilers to Azul's Ceremonial Robes vignettes, Reader is mentioned to have somewhat similar features to Azul (specific features aren't specified), Tell me if I missed anything
Full post under the cut!
-----
"Big brother! Why are you crying?" A slightly smaller mer-octopus swam closer with a concerned expression.
Azul, who was hiding in an octopus pot, looked up to his sweet and innocent little sibling. The 7-year-old boy's eyes soften, and Azul knew that it was only a matter of time before his baby sibling, [Name], would go through all the bullying and teasing as well.
But Azul didn't want that. He wanted [Name]'s cute smile to last forever. He wanted [Name] to not have to see and experience the horrors of simply being themself. He wanted to protect [Name] from everything and everyone who dared hurt them.
Azul's heart squeezed in his chest as he realizes that he can't. He can't protect [Name]. Azul couldn't even protect himself! He truly was... a weak, dumb, slow little octopus...
Tormented by his thoughts, Azul continued sobbing, hiding further into the octopus pot, hiding his chubby face from his little sibling.
"Don't look at me!!" Azul cries out, accidentally spitting out ink from his tentacles, staining the waters around them. The mess caused Azul to cry even more, the ugly black liquids reminding him of what the other kids told him.
[Name] frowns softly, they didn't know why their big brother was upset. The younger mer-octopus moves closer to the octo-pot, trying to coax their older brother to come out.
"Zul-ie.. what's wrong? I don't like seeing you sad..."
Upon receiving no response, the younger child purses their lips in a pout.
"Come onnn...! Mom and dad made dinner! They made fried chicken! Your favorite!!"
---
"Big brother!! Look, look! Wanna hear this song I learned on the piano?!"
Piano keys played a gorgeous melody under [Name]'s fingers, and Azul watched with wide eyes full of wonder and pride. Azul felt a small sense of envy in him, but he couldn't find it in himself to acknowledge the jealousy, because Azul was too proud of his younger sibling to do that.
And yet...
As [Name] learned more and more, Azul couldn't help but feel... left behind.
As though [Name] doesn't need him anymore.
But... but that isn't true right? [Name] needs Azul... right...?
As days and years pass by, nagging feelings of envy and worthlessness bubble up in Azul as he watches his sibling shine.
'I should be proud of them,' he thinks to himself as his mind wanders while he was studying.
---
'Mom and dad don't love each other anymore...'
Those were the thoughts in the two siblings' heads while they listened to their parents argue for what felt like the umpteenth time. And today, it seemed as though everyone in the house had finally had enough of the screams and shouts.
Around a month or so later, the Ashengrotto family were in court, for a divorce trial. It was a somewhat long process, but the judge's words hit the two children like a truck.
"Mrs. Ashengrotto is to be given custody over Azul Ashengrotto. Whilst Mr. Ashengrotto is to be given custody over [Name] Ashengrotto."
When the Ashengrotto family split up, Azul and [Name] were desperately trying to stay together. It went to the point that their parents had to pull the crying siblings apart because [Name] and their father had to leave.
"Big brother!!! NO!!"
"[Name]!!! Don't leave me please!!"
---
"DON'T LEAVE ME!!"
Azul wakes up with a start, sitting up from the bed with wide eyes and heavy breathing. His hair was frazzled in a bedhead, and he quickly looks around.
The Octavinelle Dorm Leader recognizes his dorm room, and breathes a sigh. Not one of relief, but one of exhaustion. Azul reaches to his bedside table and takes his glasses, putting them on as he checks the clock. 5 am.
Next to the clock, Azul sees the small picture he placed. A family picture of him, his mother, his father, and his younger sibling. It was taken before his parents had divorced. When they were all happy...
Azul stares at his younger sibling in the picture, yearning to see them again. He reaches out a bit, but stops himself and shakes his head. 'Now is not the time', he thinks to himself. He shakily stands up and starts getting ready for the welcoming ceremony of the new first years of NRC.
Azul leaves the room and passes by Jade and Floyd's shared room. The house-warden could hear Floyd's complaining through the door and he sighs, knocking on the door and speaking.
"Floyd, would you stop complaining? Jade and I have to get ready for the Welcoming Ceremony, and you and the others have to start preparing for the welcome party for our new first years."
Almost immediately, Floyd replies with a slight whiney tone. "Says the person who wasn't wrung out like a rag for some lotion! I can barely walk!!" Azul could almost hear the pout in Floyd's voice and sighs in exasperation, listening to Jade trying to calm his brother down.
Deciding to leave the twin eels alone, Azul starts to walk away and head to the Lounge to make sure the preparations are going smoothly. As he walked, his mind can't help but wander to thoughts like if he and his own younger sibling would have a similar dynamic to Jade and Floyd. Hm, or would their dynamic be more like Idia's and Ortho's? Likely not, perhaps.
These thoughts weighed in Azul's mind, and he feels himself shaking his head, trying to rid himself of those thoughts. He hasn't seen his younger sibling for a long time; but Azul certainly hopes that [Name] didn't have such a drastic change like he did.
For some reason, Azul couldn't bear the thought of his previously happy-go-lucky and outgoing [Name] to be anything else other than such a happy mer-octopus. It was wishful thinking, but what kind of older brother would he be if he didn't wish only the best for his younger sibling?
---
When the time came for the Welcoming Ceremony to begin, the Housewardens (exceot for Malleus Draconia, who likely didn't receive the invitation, Azul thinks) were all lined in a circle surrounding the mirror, waiting for students to be sorted into their own dorms.
As each student was being sorted to their dorms, Azul takes the time to look at each student that seemed to catch his attention. None seemed very relevant thus far, maybe a few people he could exploit here and there.
"Next student!"
A student dressed in the NRC Ceremonial Robes stepped out of the crowd of the unsorted first-years. Their hood was on and casting a shadow down their face as they walked towards the mirror.
"State thy name." The mirror said when the student stepped up.
Suddenly, the student spoke a name that ran a shiver down Azul's spine. A name that Azul never thought he would hear no matter how much he wished to hear.
"[Name] Ashengrotto."
Jade raised an eyebrow and turned to Azul curiously, and some other students who recognized the last name also snuck some glances to the Octavinelle Dormleader. Azul could vaguely hear Idia's voice through the floating tablet, saying things like, 'Plot twist?!', but he paid no heed to it.
Azul's eyes were wide, and his mouth was lightly agape in surprise. His younger sibling... studying in NRC?!?
Questions ran through Azul's head in that moment. How is his younger sibling doing? Do they still like to play the piano? Or perhaps they still continued collecting those sea shells? Did [Name] still want to be a singer when they grew up? Do they still enjoy chasing their tentacles like a dog liked chasing its tail? Do they still have that same smile they always did; the one that brightened any room they were in and made their eyes glimmer like the stars land-folk liked to gaze at?
The Dark Mirror spoke again, "The shape of they soul is..."
Azul was beside himself with worry and anticipation. What dorm would his younger sibling be sorted into?
'Octavinelle, Octavinelle, Octavinelle', Azul chanted in his head, hoping for the Dark Mirror to sort [Name] in the dorm he was in.
"... Octavinelle!"
It took almost everything in Azul not to let out a sigh of relief, but he was celebrating in his mind. Suddenly remembering that he was the Dorm Leader of Octavinelle, he stepped up and made himself known to his beloved younger sibling.
Azul mustered up an amicable smile (and those who knew him were rather surprised at how genuine Azul's smile looked), and spoke. "Welcome to Octavinelle, right this way please."
[Name], not having realized who the person underneathe the hood was, nodded and walked to the crowd of Octavinelle students, waiting for the Welcoming Ceremony to be over.
---
After a rather tiring Welcoming Ceremony, with an entire fire getting started by a racoon-cat-monster named Grim, all the students (save for that one student who couldn't get sorted to a dorm) were allowed to leave and go back to their respective dorms.
The Octavinelle first-years were granted a delicious meal and celebration, and were all briefed on their duties in the Mostro Lounge. The entire time, Azul kept sneaking glances at [Name], which wasn't really left unnoticed by the twins or by [Name] themself.
Azul eventually mustered up the courage to approach his younger sibling and struck up a conversation.
"[Name], it's very nice to see you..! I'm Azul, remember? Your older brother?" Azul's voice was one of slight anxiety, did [Name] eveb remember him? It has been a while since they last even heard from each other..
[Name] turns to look at Azul and nods a bit, smiling a little. "Ah, right. It's so nice to see you again, Zulie."
Being referred to his favorite childhood nickname made Azul smile softly, but he couldn't shake off the surprise at seeing the change of demeanor in [Name]. Back when they were younger, [Name] was much more outgoing and enthusiastic compared to this [Name], who seemed to want to curl up in a ball when someone else tried making conversation with them.
Not even their smile fully reached their eyes anymore. Just what had happened to his beloved younger sibling in the time he was gone?
Internally hoping that his younger sibling hadn't changed too much, Azul tried to continue the conversation. "Ah, do you.. still play the piano?"
[Name] shook their head and smiled a little sheepishly in reply. "Oh, no I don't anymore. Atleast, not as often as before. I still play it occasionally, but I don't exactly find it as fun now."
"What about collecting sea shells? Surely, you still find that enjoyable?"
"Dad and I lived in a more colder part of the ocean, and there weren't a lot of sea shells to collect. So, no, not really."
"Ahh, I see... what do you like doing nowadays, then, [Name]?"
"Oh, well..." [Name] then proceeds to tell their older brother of their interests; though most (if not all) the things the younger Ashengrotto listed were things Azul weren't very interested in.
Regardless, Azul nods in understanding, trying not to mind how much his sibling had changed.
The next few weeks after that, Azul had found it hard to approach [Name]. Why? Well, maybe it was because of the fact that his younger sibling had grown rather attached to the Ramshackle prefect and a certain trouble-making trio (Ace, Deuce, and Grim).
Azul had enough of it, seeing his younger sibling get roped into trouble from their group of friends. When [Name] had came back to the dorm with the Heartslabyul's dorm leader's collar on them, Azul had to pull his younger sibling aside to talk.
"[Name], may I ask exactly why you have Riddle's collar on you? What did your friends bring you into this time?" Azul asked [Name] as they spoke in Azul's office. Azul was looking at his beloved younger sibling with furrowed brows and a scrutinizing expression.
[Name] replied, "It's a.. long story, big brother. Yuu, Ace, Deuce, Grim, and I were at Heartslabyul's Unbirthday Party. Dorm Leader Rosehearts got mad at us and collared us and kicked us out of the party because a rule was broken.."
Azul sighs in disappointment and exasperation. He can't believe his younger sibling associated themself with such troublemakers.
"[Name], honestly, why do you even hang out with such people?! They're getting you into trouble!"
[Name] tries to defend themself, "They don't mean to! And I can't just stand by and watch as my friends suffer on their own!"
Azul starts to get a little frustrated. Can't they see, those group of 'friends' as [Name] calls them are terrible influences. It's only a matter of time before they start using [Name] for their own benefit, Azul is sure about that. After all, [Name] has always been rather straightforward in the way that they won't hesitate to help (such values were strange to see in a school like Night Raven College). And Azul knew what happened to people like that; they get exploited, wrung out like a rag, draining them out until there's nothing left to give.
If [Name]'s friends were anything like the other students of NRC (like how Azul would treat his 'clients'), it would be so, so much worse for [Name]. Oh, Azul could practically see it now; it'll start small, like helping out with homework or lending some money. Eventually, it'll be like his younger sibling got the life and kindness sucked out of them, leaving them burnt out like a poor, unfortunate soul!
And Azul can't and won't let his beloved younger sibling go through that. He won't let [Name] fall from grace so terribly like the people who've broken their end of the deal with him.
And that is what Azul tells [Name] (leaving out the parts that paint Azul as the scheming businessman he is, of course) in an effort and attempt to dissuade his sibling from staying friends with their troublemaking friends.
"Don't you see, my dear sibling? They're only using you and their troublemaking schemes would run your student record through the mud. They're getting you involved in so much drama and troubles, and as your older brother, I'd hate for you to be surrounded by such terrible influences," Azul says.
[Name] frowns a bit. Azul worded it as though they hadn't done anything wrong, which wasn't all that far from the truth, though. However, [Name] also knew that Azul was thinking that they were being dragged against their will to help out, which they weren't.
"Big brother... I'm helping out willingly, because I want to. Besides, they're my friends. Didn't the Sea Witch always help other people? We're Octavinelle students, we must always follow the Sea Witch's values."
[Name] replies. The facts about Octavinelle and the Sea Witch were things that the younger Ashengrotto used to try convincing Azul to let them go.
Azul clicks his tongue, his eyes narrowing as he pushes up his glasses that were starting to fall a bit. "Then perhaps you should try getting better, more behaved friends instead of the ones you have right now. What happened to the well-behaved [Name] I used to know?" Azul mutters under his breath, but [Name] could still hear Azul's words.
[Name] frowns at the last question. "What 'happened' is that life happened, Azul. Not everyone stays the same! I've changed!!"
Azul, however, has difficulty getting behind the thought, shaking his head in denial, "Then change back!! [Name], I want the old you! The one who'd listen and trust me without a second thought! The one who was dependent on me! The one who actually made me feel special!!"
That was the last straw for [Name]. They have grown tired of their older brother trying to keep them the same as they used to when they were a child. Can't Azul just let go of the past? "Well that [Name] is gone!! I'm independent now, Azul! I'm not a child! Stop treating me like one!"
[Name] shouts in a burst of anger, before their eyes widen, not having expected themself to actually blow up like that. Not necessarily regretting it, though, the young Ashengrotto quickly turns away and leaves Azul's office, ignoring their older brother's shouts for them to come back.
---
Azul breathes heavily as he falls to his knees, watching as his younger sibling walks away from him, closing the door behind them. The sight can't help but remind Azul of the time when he and [Name] were separated; just this time, [Name] was being pulled away by their 'friends' instead of their father.
Azul can't believe this!! Did [Name] really just walk away from him?! After everything Azul did in hopes of having his dearest sibling back?! How dare they!
How dare they change! How dare they change so much to the point Azul barely recognizes them! How dare they move on from the past so quickly, as if it didn't bother them! And how dare they even think of choosing their friends over him!
How dare they make him cry! How dare they say words that hurt far more than when those pesky merfolk would bully him!! How dare they leave him there, with tears falling down his eyes and with a heart aching for family!
How dare they, how dare they, how dare they!!
Azul takes a deep breath of resolution, his eyes narrowing behind the glint of his glasses. Never mind, then. He'll show them, he just knows it.
Azul calls the Leech twins over to the office, preparing to make a plan for the upcoming exam season, a list of specific names he wants them to target.
He'll show [Name]. He'll show them that he's right. That big brother knows best.

any opinions on joker junior!tim/jason?
oh my GOD yes-
Joker Junior!Tim is one of my guilty pleasures. i'm *obsessed* with the concept, i think it's so horrifying in such an intriguing way. it's tricky to work into the main timeline, but that's sort of the fun of it, bc generally you have two routes: Joker Junior happened to Tim when he was Robin and he's since moved on and continued to be Robin then Red Robin. or it happened to him as Red Robin and is a current thing that the characters in the fic are dealing with. and both are good.
because there's endless potential of how to do it with JayTIm. does Jason save Tim, does Jason *know* in the first place, if it happens after Jason is back as Red Hood how does he react, etc. i've read it in fics and i love every version.
but i think i'm intrigued by the idea of Joker Junior happening before Jason comes back as Red Hood and he finds out about it and he's *pissed*. like infinitely more pissed than he would've been. but his anger isn't in protection of Tim, it's at Bruce for not learning, for letting this happen again. and for making a brainwashed child have to kill Joker because *again*, Bruce couldn't do it. the point isn't about if Joker is alive or dead. it's that *Bruce* didn't kill Joker and Jason's death didn't mean enough to Bruce to stop Joker before he did it again. because Joker Junior really is the proof Jason needs to shove in Bruce's face about child sidekicks and Robins and Joker. and since Jason didn't exist in the universe where Joker Junior happened, we never saw a real comparison of the two. but i think if they happened in the same universe, it makes what Joker does to Tim far more purposeful. because now he knows he can kill a Robin and *get away with it*. so he wants to push it. how do you top *killing Robin*? like, if that doesn't get to Batman *what does*? Joker Junior seems like the perfectly reasonable next progression. if a dead Robin doesn't break the Bat, then breaking Robin beyond recognition seems even bigger. and Joker trying to get Tim to kill Bruce as Joker Junior would likely be Joker just seeing if Bruce would let it happen. could Bruce bring himself to stop Tim? and of course Joker doesn't find out bc Tim kills him instead, but it's such a fun question.
and so, i think Jason would *know* his death in a way, caused this. Joker did that to Tim because he didn't get enough of a rise out of Bruce for killing Jason. if Bruce had *just* killed the Joker, none of this would've happened. another kid wouldn't be irrevocably fucked up.
as for Jason's opinions on Tim specifically, i think it's fun if Tim retires from vigilante work entirely after the incident. (with Steph taking over as Robin for a much longer and more significant period instead of just getting fridged) because Tim has very black and white morals so knowing he killed someone, even under the influence of Joker venom, he'd immediately put down the cape, suggest Steph to take up his mantle and quietly retire. he knows what he's capable of now, pushed to the edge and it scares him. i think it's fun if it scares him *because* he was lucid. if he was truly under the brainwashing control, he would've killed Bruce. but he didn't. he had a moment of clarity, and decided to kill the Joker. and he knows that was *him*, not Joker Junior. he made that decision and now, he lives with it.
which means Jason would be almost pissed off by Tim, at first. because they're reacting to their trauma *wildly* differently. Jason wants blood for blood, vengeance, war, and to make Gotham feel his wrath. but Tim just wants to. disappear. quietly vanish and live a quiet life, even refusing to run comms. Jason doesn't understand how TIm doesn't share the anger and passion Jason has for justice. he knows what Tim is capable of and so does Tim, so why doesn't Tim lean into it? why doesn't he take back control? bc this is letting the Joker win, to Jason. after all, Jason is the guy who took Joker's old name to prove a point. and now he's facing another person broken by Joker who just. is a normal guy. i'd love to write Jason forcibly dragging Tim back into the superhero life, trying to trigger the worst out of him and wanting to find kinship in Tim. because that's another part of it- this is someone else who might actually understand Jason's experiences and Jason just wants to not be alone. he wants someone else who gets what it feels like. so he makes Tim face the trauma Tim is running from and pushes and pushes until Tim snaps. i think it could be fun.
don't get me wrong, i love softer JJ!Tim in JayTim stuff just as much, where Jason is more protective and they bond and end up really close and taking care of each other because of it. but i'd love to lean into the fucked up nature of it. for Jason to want to rip Tim open and see just how much of the Joker is left inside of him. for Jason to be obsessed with the other Robin that Joker broke. for Jason to be even angrier at Bruce because of it all. there's endless potential and it will forever remain my guilty pleasure for JayTim.
#necrotic answerings#jaytim#joker junior#dead dove do not eat#i just think jj!tim is neat.#like i have endless upon endless ideas about it.#some are softer and some are feral#and i will eat up every fic for it#especially love that art i reblogged recently of jj!tim and arkham knight!jason#i don't know too much abuot arkham knight stuff#but i want to get into it bc it seems so intriguing and that art makes me feral.#i want tim to be whumped in any imaginable way.#fuck that boy up and break him until he doesn't know who he is anymore <3#it's crunchy#seriously thank you anon for asking this is my fave thing ever.

You want more headcanons? No? Well that's too damn bad. Some of these are from a fanfic I'm writing (I'll post it once it's done)
Floyd can tell when his brothers are upset and will pester them until they talk about
Jd has so much pent up emotions. It started when he basically took over taking care of his brothers. He felt he needed to be happy so they could be happy.
Bruce may not have cooked when they were young but he watched how their grandma cooked and kind of memorized.
John Dory is constantly tense, his muscles are so tightly wound that he feels like solid muscle. The other bros think it's just bc he's been so active all these years until he finally relaxes a little.
Once back together, branch falls into the annoying little brother role. Taking embarrassing pictures and showing them to anyone (bonus points if it's a potential partner), and telling embarrassing secrets
Branch will never let them live down leaving him (if you know, you know 😂)
Clay and Floyd scare the crap out of the others. Clay because he's been silently walking around for the past two decades and Floyd because hes just a light stepper.
Bruce is a light sleeper, having kids made that worse (or better depending on how you view it)
Floyd sleeps V quietly. The type of sleep where you think they've died bc they haven't moved and you can't tell if you're imagining them breathing
JD snores. Like super loudly. But sleeps similar to Bruce, where he could wake up at the drop of a hat. He developed that tactic when they were kids and he heard one of his bros wake up in the middle of the night.
Floyd's voice is soft and comforting, the type to talk kidnappers about their childhood and how it lead them down this path.
John Dory will use his goggles to hide his eyes when he's been crying or hasn't slept in a long time. Did this when he'd stay up all night writing one of their songs or to hide the fact that he had been crying
John is painfully independent. Will refuse help despite the fact that he needs it most.
John Dory constantly uses the excuse that he's the oldest so he "doesn't need help" and "can take care of himself" and it infuriates his brothers to no end now that they're adults and realize that it's happening
It gets to a point where they practically have to tie JD down and force him to relax
Clay walks into walls while reading bc he walks while reading. The others find it funny until it happens several times in a row. Sometimes they "redirect" him before he walks into a wall, like a roomba
Floyd and Clay are little shits.
Clay got his head stuck in one of these at one of their first concerts. Him and Floyd (and technically Branch but he was being carried) were walking along when Clay got the "bright" idea to sit his head through, convinced he wouldn't get stuck. Clay sent Floyd to get help from spruce, who had to be the mature one and not laugh at him. Spruce just pushes his ears in and he pops right out. Once they turn to walk away Clay does it again, after getting him out again Spruce just picks him up like a sleeping bag under his arm.
Clay constantly made bets he couldn't keep. "Bet you five bucks I can do this or that." Mainly with Floyd bc Floyd wouldn't hold him to it

there's this kid around peter she who's new to the team. peter plays a prank to get her to loosen up to the team and possibly make another friend so peter somehow gets her to leave her room and locks her ina. dark closet as a prank but he doesn't know that she's scared of the dark bc of hydra nat and tony find her later and get on peters ass. he tries to apologize but she doesn't wanna hear that shit now any chance he had of being her friend went out the window along with any chance of her finally bonding with the team and peter is tryna fix that. rest is up to you
Prank
Pairing: Avengers x reader, Peter Parker x reader (platonic)
Warning: Angst, hurt, Peter being sweet at the end
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You hummed quietly as you sat on your bed cautiously examining the piece of clothing Natasha had gifted you. A knock on the door pulls you from your thoughts. With hesitant steps you make your way to the door and crack it open to reveal Peter Parker. You remember him from the meeting you were required to go to as a way to meet the others. He was about your age and seemed friendly enough.
He gives you a smile and a wave before he begins talking. “Hello! I'm Peter. It's y/n right?” you give him a nod and shuffle on your feet waiting for him to leave. “The others wanted me to let you know that we have a meeting in 5 minutes.” With that he walks away.
Closing the door you sigh and lean against it. Walking over to your closet you pick out some clothes and get dressed and quickly brush your hair before heading out of your room and down the hall.
As you're walking you hear a noise coming from a closet. Looking around you open the door and frown when you see nothing. Before you could walk away you are quickly shoved into it and the door locks.
“Hello? Hello! Let me out!” you scream as tears run down your face. Visions of Hydra quickly enter your mind and you fall to the floor screaming and crying. “Let me out! I'll be good, I promise! Let me out!” The compound begins to shake and Peter begins to get worried.
Footsteps are heard followed by a loud voice “Peter what's going on?” Mr. Stark says. The door opens revealing Natasha, Tony, and Peter on the other side. All three look at your shaking body worriedly. Natasha is the first to move. She slowly makes her way to you and reaches out but you flinch back. She gasps as not even a moment later you run past her down the hall and to your room. The door slams shut and the shaking dies down slowly.
“What were you thinking Parker!” Natasha shouts at the boy as she stares daggers at him.
“I was just- I thought that. It was just a prank! I thought it would loosen her up! I thought that maybe she would open up and want to be friends!” He says as tears come to his eyes.
“So you lock the poor girl in a closet!” Natasha shakes her head and looks to your room debating whether or not to go check on you. WIth a sigh she looks back at Peter. “You better fix this.” Walking away she walks towards the elevator.
“Mr. Stark?” Peter says but Tony just shakes his head and follows after Natasha.
A week after the incident, Peter stands outside your door with some chocolate and an apology that he had practiced for hours to make sure it sounded okay. With a deep breath he knocks on your door.
Opening the door and spotting Peter you immediately go to close it but he quickly holds it open. “Wait! Please just let me explain.” He begs. You stand stiffly and cross your arms as you wait for him to speak. “What happened that day I didn’t know that you would react like that. If I did I wouldn’t have done it. I just was going to prank you so that-”
“A prank? I do not know what a prank is but I don't need an explanation. Just stay away from me. Tell everyone else that too, would you. I don’t need anymore of these “pranks” happening. I just want to be alone.” You slam the door in his face and he looks down dejected as he watches the chocolates fall to the ground.
“Peter Parker!” Yelena shouts as she walks into the room with Natasha and Wanda hot on her trail. “Fix whatever you’ve done to y/n! I was so close to bonding with her! We were gonna go vest shopping! I was going to make her see the joy in pockets!” She shouts as she points at the boy.
“I-I tried. She won’t accept my apology.” He defends himself and backs up as Yelena glares at him. Yelena would always scare him more than anything in the world.
“Peter Parker if you dont-”
“Yelena thats enough” Natasha calls to her sister. The younger girl huffs and crosses her arms.
Peter stood in your room proud of his work as he looked around at all the glow in the dark stars on your ceiling and the fake flowers, vines, and butterflies that were scattered on your walls. Until now your room had been the exact same since before you started sleeping in it.
As you walked into the room your body seemed to be on Alert. Looking up you gasped at all the things in your room as tears filled your eyes. You continued to look around until you spotted a figure standing in the middle.
“Peter?” You asked softly “What. Did you do this?”
“I did. I asked Natasha if she knew of anything you liked. She said you seemed very happy watching the stars and butterflies so I ask Mr. Stark for some help.” With a choked sob you ran into his arms giving him a hug. He was taken back but quickly reciprocated.
“Thank you!”
“Anything for you.” He whispered.
After that you had begun warming up to the team. You allowed Yelena to take you vest shopping and you both came back with bags and bags of vests each with different amounts of pockets. Clint and Kate showed you how to shoot a bow and arrow. Natasha helped train you with hand to hand combat while Wanda helped you control your powers. Bruce and Tony showed you around the lab and let you help build new suits and technology. Peter helped you learn what a prank was although you were still very confused but eventually both of you ran around the compound pulling pranks on everyone in sight. You finally had a home and you loved it.

Hii could I request a fic with Copia where his girlfriend is a single mother and is scared to tell him that she has a child bc she thinks that he'll leave her.
Yeah, ofcc!! It's not super long but I hope it's good!
(fluff and comfort, fem!reader, I think this is it?)
The words get caught in your throat, and you're not sure how to tell him. Would he leave you? In your heart, you know he won't. But the thoughts that plague your mind tell you he will. You hear the creak of the chair and soon a dip in the bed beside you as Copia wraps his arm around you and pulls you close. You lean your head back to rest on his chest and sigh, “maybe, it is my way of asking, or maybe not. Who knows.” You tease, finally finding a response, and he scoffs, lightly punching your arm with a laugh.
˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚˚₊‧꒰
“What do you think about kids?” You ask, your voice ringing out through the quiet of your shared bedroom. The question lingered for a few seconds, the silence deafening, before Copia answered. “I don't hate them,” he answers, not looking up from the stack of paperwork on the desk. “Amore Mio, is this your way of asking if we should have kids?” He chuckles and finally looks up, leaning back in his chair. You scoff when he gives you a suggestive look, and he laughs, moving back to finish the paperwork at his desk.
As the sun slowly starts to set and the room dims, you turn to see Copia fast asleep, yet you can't bring yourself to relax enough to fall asleep. Maybe you'll tell him tomorrow, but what if he's not ready. You can't stop the thoughts swarming in your mind, and you rub your temples to try and push the thoughts away. “What's wrong, tesoro?” Copias voice pulls you back down to reality. He pulls you close once more, resting his chin on the crown of your head and then placing a soft kiss to it. His fingers are tracing shapes into your arm, and you close your eyes. “There's something I need to tell you,” you start, feeling like there's something in your throat that's stopping you from speaking, “I'll tell you tomorrow,” you smile at him and you can feel him nod, giving one last kiss before he falls back asleep. There's no going back now. What's done is done. Hopefully, he has a good reaction. All you can do is hope.
—
You managed to wake up before him, way too early. The sun's just rising, despite it still being dark in the room. Your nerves are on fire, and you feel like you're going to vomit. You'll tell him after breakfast, maybe then you'll feel a bit less anxious.
The whole time you were in the dining hall, your mind was clouded. You could barely hear what the sisters beside you were talking about. “Did you hear?” One of them gently shakes you, awaiting a response. All you can do is shake your head in response. She smiles and explains to you the gossip of this week, and for a half hour, your worries were lifted.
Whenever you look over at Copia, it seems like he's already looking at you. It's sweet, but every time your eyes meet, you feel all the worries come rushing back. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea, you could just tell him you forgot what you wanted to tell him, maybe he'll believe that. It's worth a shot.
“So, what was that all about? Being so mysterious last night.” Copia comes behind you and kisses your shoulder. You swallow down your nerves and take a deep breath. The plan you had made at breakfast seems to fall down the drain when he asks. There's no way he'd believe you. You open your mouth and close it, like some stupid fish, you don't know what to say. But, there's not a better way to say it, so you decide to tell him, and not sugar coat your words. “There's something you should know, I know that you may not be ready for kids, but-” you cut off your sentence and bury your face in your hands, Copia moves so he's in front of you and pulls your hands down. “I'm a mom, I have a kid. She's only five. But I have a kid.” You finish with a shaky breath. Hot teats prick your eyes as your mind prepares for the worst. Instead, you feel a kiss to your forehead. “Okay, so we'll raise her together.” You can feel Copias lips curl into a smile against your forehead as he speaks. He pulls you close to him and chuckles. “I meant it when I said I don't hate kids. They can be annoying, but not annoying enough that I'm not going to help. We're in this together, tesoro.” He says, rubbing your back. When he finishes speaking, you can feel the weight lifted off your shoulder. Maybe your mind was just working overtime. He's not leaving you anytime soon, and you just know that he's going to make an amazing father.

In defense of Buck
Before everyone gets swept up in all the Buck hate I'm seeing on here, can we just acknowledge the fact that Eddie made yet another massive life decision that affects Buck - without telling him? And how hurtful it would have been for Buck to overhear what he heard - and then for Eddie instead of feeling bad and acknowledging Buck's feelings, to accuse him of spying and making it all about himself? Why shouldn't Buck get to make this a *little* about himself at least? His best friend is leaving him, the kid he's helped raise is apparently not coming home, and he just heard that he didn't matter at all? Eddie's just gonna pack up and leave because he "has no ties to LA." - that's got to fucking STING! And let's also not ignore the fact that we have seen zero evidence that Eddie has even *tried* to get Chris to come back to LA. Zero evidence that he's even told Chris he's moving there, or asked him what he'd prefer. Or taken any trips down there to try to reconnect and bond with Chris in hopes that they can get back on the same page and start over. Taken him to joint therapy - tried SOMETHING. Instead, he's just packing up and leaving it all behind because "Chris is thriving" and he can't take him away from that? (Why, because he learned to play Chess?? Chris has 7 years of connections, friendships, resources in LA! He was thriving there too until things went bad.)
When Eddie was shot, he told Buck he mattered because *surprise* if I die, you're Christopher's guardian (oops I didn't think that was important enough to tell you but I guess bc I just almost died I probably should). But where does that leave Buck now? He just heard Eddie tell those people he doesn't matter. Chris lives with his grandparents in another state. Is he even still in the succession plan? Has Eddie changed his will again? How would he even know, because Eddie never tells him anything important like that. How could he possibly still be Chris' guardian, if Eddie can't even get Chris away from his grandparents, and he doesn't even live there anymore. He probably feels like his heart has been ripped out of his chest and put into a blender, because not only is Eddie leaving, but he said Buck didn't matter, so that probably means he no longer matters as Christopher's potential future guardian too, right? Buck just... doesn't matter.
I don't believe Buck fully meant to scare those subletters away (maybe unconsciously he did but not on purpose), if anything he was just trying to buy a little time with his best friend - and possibly trying to stop Eddie from jumping headfirst into yet another hasty decision that will be hard to back out of. (Let's not forget what happened to Eddie's mental state the last time he left the 118 and needed Buck to come to his rescue). And it's clear that at that point, Eddie wasn't being very forthcoming with his own feelings, or reassuring Buck about what he meant to him and how hard it would be for him to leave him behind. He even admitted later that Buck HAD succeeded in supporting him (to a point - the point where he had his feelings hurt because he heard Eddie admit he didn't matter and he had no ties to LA). So up until that point, Buck has been there for him despite his own feelings. Despite not being reassured of Eddie's, in return.
Eddie really needed to sit Buck down and reassure him of his place in his heart and the endurance of their relationship despite geography, and to tell him how hard it would be to leave him, but I don't think he did until he was quiet-yelling at him at the door that it's hard on him too. But up til that point, it didn't LOOK hard on Eddie - he seemed single mindedly determined and even happy about the move. Yes he said 'I don't know what I'm gonna do without you' but he didn't say it in an emotional way, he said it in a 'you do so much for me' kind of way.
Maybe Buck shouldn't have "outed" Eddie to the crew but he was mad and hurt, and to be fair, Eddie shouldn't have been keeping it a secret anymore especially after already putting a deposit on a house down there - and expecting Buck to help him move away from him and then have no one to talk about it with? Expecting Buck to deal with all those feelings on his own? Because EDDIE clearly wasn't talking about it with Buck, wasn't acknowledging his feelings. And for someone planning to leave within 3 weeks, Eddie really needed to tell the crew. And when he found out WHY Buck "outed him", he should have immediately understood and felt like shit. Not gotten mad at him for "spying". We should have gotten a scene where Eddie sat Buck down and apologized and validated his feelings and expressed how much Buck means to him but that he didn't see any alternatives and this was so hard but he had to do it. But we didn't get that, we got Buck becoming the bigger man despite NOT having those reassurances from Eddie (he didn't get any reassurances from Eddie at all until he'd already given up his lease and agreed to take over Eddie's, and even then Eddie was basically accusing Buck of wanting him to choose between Buck and Chris, even though Buck never said that.)
I'm not saying that there should be Eddie hate (there shouldn't), but I AM saying that there shouldn't be Buck hate. Everything he did was understandable from my perspective. And frankly, he deserves even more of a heart to heart from Eddie than what he got. I am really hoping we get some of that in the next episode. Eddie needs to get in touch with his feelings, realize how much Buck loves him and how much moving away from him is destroying him, and he needs to give some of that love back in the form of WORDS OF AFFIRMATION.
We have seen the growth from Buck, in that he is making a grand gesture to allow Eddie to leave him, rather than trying to find ways for him to stay. And he did all that without a single reassurance from Eddie how much he loves him in return. But I haven't seen the growth in Eddie. He needs to stop making knee-jerk decisions on his own, he needs to open up about his feelings, he needs to make the people in his life that he loves FEEL that love, make sure they EXPLICITLY know how he feels about them in return. And he needs to start chasing his happiness. Carla has literally already had this conversation with him (you need to stop making decisions based on what you think is right for Christopher and instead talk to him about what he actually wants), but we've seen no growth since then, because he hasn't talked to Christopher about any of this.
I truly hope the show addresses all this from Eddie. Because that scene at the end (while amazing) wasn't enough. If Buck is going to do all this for him, Eddie needs to affirm what Buck means to him in return in a more concrete way.
Eddie is the king of repression. That's his biggest hurdle to finding his happiness, is getting over the way he represses his feelings and doesn't talk about them with the people he loves. And I for one can't wait to see how he changes and grows in the next few episodes, because while Buck is nearing the end of his growth journey, Eddie appears to just be starting his. Hopefully he realizes what he's left behind in Buck, and what happiness would look like for him (a life with Buck in it). And hopefully he starts taking steps to trying to have it all, actively TRYING to have everything in his life together that would make him happy, rather than one or the other.
#Seriously this is NOT an Eddie Diaz hate post I LOVE Eddie Diaz#but the boy has not gone through his growth arc yet at ALL so how are we hating on Buck while he still hasn't grown at all#Buddie#911 spoilers#evan buckley#eddie diaz#911 show#911 abc

hi! okay this is insanely long but i had a lot of thoughts so bear with me pls.
i was scrolling through the jercy tag bc i'm starved and saw ur posts abt rhea/kronos & percy/jason and have to say i love them sm!! it's such an interesting concept and i've got a lot of cool thoughts abt them now thanks to you, buttt,, may i also offer metis/zeus & percy/jason parallels? it's a little stretch but hey idc it's fun
metis is the daughter of oceanus, percy is the son of poseidon (at both times, they're a child of the ruler of the seas) zeus is the son of kronos, jason is the son of zeus (at both times, they're a child of the ruler of the universe) metis & zeus met and fought a war to end kronos together...percy & jason unknowingly fought together during the titan war to end kronos and they do meet and work together during the giant war! and they make a great team, like in the twin giants fight
metis was a goddess of wisdom i'm pretty sure? and was zeus' advisor. i am a firm hater of the "percy is stupid" train because honestly it's percy who makes most of the battle strategies in pjo.
in fact here's some unwarranted examples: realizing what the lotus casino was, tricking crusty, figuring out the whole lightning thief debacle, giving clarisse the fleece, clearing chiron's name, figuring out he needs to take the sky, finding the nemean lion's weak spot, figuring out rachel is their guide for the labyrinth, all of his actions in the battle of manhattan tbh like he was crazy for doing all that at age 16!!, scaring chrysaor’s crew, making the combination of demigods to get nike, etc etc- i could go on and on!
so, i feel he can be related to metis in that he would be a pretty great advisor and obviously he'd be a fantastic leader. athena herself says the requests (read: demands) percy makes at the end of the second titan war are wise!
also think it could be interesting if poseidon delibrately chose to have percy look like metis. they'd probably look similar anyway but if poseidon wanted zeus to have some hesitation in killing percy, creating him to look like someone zeus greatly wronged in the style of kronos (aka eating someone) could do it?
anyway, moving onto jason! who, like zeus, is the youngest son and has a lunatic father that treats him like shit,, and at first zeus served kronos! just as jason did, but hey, if jason hadn't died when he did,, how long would he have continued to serve zeus?
rhea took zeus from kronos to be raised in crete by nymphs, like hera took jason from zeus to be raised in camp jupiter by wolves. and like rhea, hera is always on jason's side and honestly based on her toa reaction to his death, likely loved him like a son. and we know hera fucking hates zeus like rhea hated kronos.
jason is also strong as fuck, and ik rick knocked him out in every book because he didn't actually want his forced-percy-rival to actually showcase his powers but from what we know and seen he's like insane as well. PLUS he's been training since he was like 3 ik he's strong asf and zeus is sweating.
parallels😁!! uh let's hope jason doesn't eat percy though /j
i know zeus would've recognized these parallels and got insanely paranoid bc yk him. ik zeus was exhaling in relief when jason died, and there's a reason he was always trying to kill percy. he saw his sins in him! everytime he looks at percy he sees the woman he tricked and treated like shit and more-or-less killed. but he also knows metis was smart and very capable, n that's scary to him. everytime he looks at jason he sees his younger self, and that's a horrible thing to see if you're zeus lmao
of course jason is much better than zeus and percy is fairly different from metis, but it's the small parallels and zeus' paranoia that makes everything bigger.
the act we know metis most for is supplying the poison for kronos to regurgitate his kids,, and percy has a pretty close connection to poison now after his fight with akhlys :)
but yeah!! fun parallels :') sorry if this was a lot to read/hard to read
bonus: metis & zeus r cousins just like percy & jason /j
Now!!! Hear me out!!! I loooove the Metis X Percy parallels, I never talked about it here because some things I keep for the fics 🗣️🗣️🗣️ but I totally GET YOU!!!
The thing about Rhea is that they prob look a loooot alike, so people (mostly the big six and, maybe, Kronos) attribute her whole persona to Percy’s even tho many things make zero sense. Because they want him to impersonate their mother somehow to feel their void. Others might think of him more of a Perseis kinda of person, just for the destruction thing. But Metis? She was gone before most Olympians were alive, so it’s not like they have a truthful idea of what she was like, and those who remember might not have been as close to her as Zeus.
Metis was the Titaness of good counsel, planning, cunning and wisdom. Which makes us think that Athena would be a lot like her, but I personally think Athena is more a Zeus mini me. Metis being an ocean’s kid and a titaness made me believe she was a lot wilder and not exactly the usual embodiment of these concepts. Which would make her much more of a wild card, so Zeus got rid of her when the prophecy about their son showed up. So like, I can see Percy embodying Metis’ aspect of these domains (while Annabeth would be more Athena-like), and Zeus being like…
In terms of looks, she and Percy might’ve not looked the most similar, but hey, Metis would question Zeus’ authority in front of the whole council and would call out his shit whenever she felt like it.
Jason, however, is a much tamed version of his father. In a good sense. He’s not cruel, and when he’s forced to make a choice that he feels bad about it haunts him. He’s not overly confident and proud. Beyond all, he was taught loyalty to Rome and the gods from a young age, contrary to Zeus who was taught rebellion and how he was supposed to be this great saviour. For a while, this probably made Zeus more comfortable about him than he probably was about Thalia, for example, or even Percy.
But romans and Greeks learn about each other and now Jason and Percy meet and turns out Jason is SMITTEN with his cousin? Yeah, that’s a problem. Zeus would seethe, and Hera would be 100% smug about it.
Suddenly, there is something that Jason cares more than Rome or the gods. That is dangerous.
Also, something about Percy being somehow paralleled with TWO titan queens is just…

☆All Nighter☆(Marc Spector x reader)
Summary- late night/early morning talk with Marc when he comes home to find you still up
Warnings- none I don't think? Just one curse but mainly fluff
A/n- when I started this it was 4:03, it's now 4:51 so that's my inspo ALSO GIF IS MINE!
A/n p2- dropping this bc now I'm obsessed w/ spiderman
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
'4:30 AM'
You were still up past your normally bed time.Bored out of your mind, hungry as hell, tired but can't seem to go to sleep, the list could go on. Your eyes stuck together as you blinked slowly, scrolling on your phone to tire yourself out. You weren't sure why you couldn't sleep but either way it felt like sleep was far away from where you were now. The hungry grew in your stomach as it cried out for some sort of food. Crawling out of your bed you slugged your way to the kitchen and made a bowl of cereal. 'No need for effort, this will just keep me up'
As you stood in the kitchen eating your cereal depressingly,you didn't the front door creek open and close. "Babe? What are you doing still up?" You jumped at the sudden voice near you, nearly choking on your food. It was your boyfriend Marc,wearing some torn clothes and a baseball cap. He looked extremely exhausted. "Jesus Christ Marc, you scared me." He removed his cap and hung it near the door. He watched you continue eating after the quick scare and leaned on the table in front of you. "Why are you up at almost 5AM? You're usually sleep by now." Usually you're greeting to him at this time was your sleeping face pressed into the pillow with and arm being moved from the sheets to his waist in bed. "I don't even know, couldn't seem to fall asleep even though I feel like I can pass out at any second." Marc sighed and stood next to you, taking the spoon out of your hand and stealing a bite from you. You were too tired to even care. You just wanted to finally get that feeling of sleep taking over your body.
"You're lucky you don't have work tomorrow or else you'd be fucked"
"I do have work"
Marc's eyes widen as he rushed over to take the cereal from you. "Why in the world are you up at this hour when you have work tomorrow.Are you ok? Something wrong?" You could tell he was a little pissed but concerned. "I'm fine I swear, I said I just can't seem to fall asleep. No big deal." It was a big deal. You could feel yourself go insane with nothing to do when you can't do the main thing you want to do. Sleep. You knew you had to work tomorrow early and continued shoveling the cereal in your mouth. Marc took the bowl from your hands and set it on the table. Placing his hands on your arms, he looked at you with a concerned face, almost like a dad about to discipline his kid. "Here's what we're gonna do, ok? We're gonna get you some water, and we're gonna lay right in that bed, no matter how long it takes you to go to sleep." You rolled your eyes at his demands but you knew that's what you really wanted. Still holding onto you, he walked you over to the side of the bed and sat you down, then rushed to get you some water.
You tried to glare at him through your heavy eyelids but they fell back shut. Slowly drinking your water, Marc went to dispose of the cereal and cut off the lights. He slid into the bed with you and snaked his arms around you. "Time for bed sleepyhead." You tried to laugh at his nickname but all you could muster was a small smile. Laying down once again, you turned to face Marc and watched him admire your tired face. "Here, cmon" he pulled you closer and placed you on his chest "Tomorrow morning, you're gonna call your job and say you can't make it. You're gonna say something came up and you'll be back the next day." Too tired to object, you simply nodded and nuzzled your face into his chest. Marc smiled slightly a kissed the top of your head as you both drifted off to sleep at last. Maybe all you needed was some cuddles and cereal.
