#Kate is the best auntie

[strange-birb]

So I’ve been doing some anatomy and color/shading studies and I decided to use a bunch on her lol…. Anyway here is Kate her character design is what got me into comics idk something abt it was cool

[steveandnatlover76]

Kate: Wait, wait, wait… why are you getting ready to move in?! We need to wait for Clint and the others for backup or we‘ll be completely outnumbered!

Yelena: It‘s taking too long. Today it‘s Ilya‘s birthday. And I‘m not missing troublemaker’s first birthday party because of some stupid Hydra agents!

Kate: So, what‘s the big plan?

Yelena: I‘ll handle the first twenty Hydra agents, you‘ll handle the remaining five.

Kate: Gosh, you‘re such a ham!

Yelena: Deal with it, Kate Bishop.

Kendrick Lamar. The first fucking Hip-Hop Pulitzer recipient. Classic literature, English Majors, Musicians, and Fans have been dissecting his albums, wordplay, entendres and meaning since Section.80. To Pimp a Butterfly has been repeatedly said by critics of all musical genres that it was the album of the 2010's. On a personal level, possibly the best rapper of this generation also openly spoke about his transphobia and how he outgrew it in Auntie Diaries. Kendrick Lamar is a man that is quite clearly obsessed with religion, and willingly puts that aside to show love for his trans uncle and cousin.

Was there any fucking question that Kendrick Lamar would have destroyed Drake? Not beat him in a rap beef—but break him down piece by piece.

This is ten years of resentment, disgust, frustration and hatred that finally has the chance to reveal itself.

The repercussions of this feud might not happen until years later, because if what Kendrick said is true (and given the fact that so many people have said it as well, I am inclined to believe in its viability), Drake might end up in prison. OvO might be torn down from its foundations.

And I want that. I hate Drake. I hate Drake's fans. They've always been sexist, homophobic, toxic pieces of shit who fully buy into the narrative that Drake spins about women. Materialistic beyond belief. And Drake's songs? Empty. Vapid.

I'm sorry, but I refuse to place Drake as a "Pop" Artist. Don't insult Beyoncé, Britney, Kate Bush, Lana, Olivia Rodrigo, Bruno Mars, and so many more.

Look at Lil Nas X. He's a pop rap artist and he accepts it. He elevates it. Pop is a just as valid a genre as the rest, and Drake is undeserving of it because his "house" music puts people to sleep.

I hope Drake's son realizes how much of a scumbag he is. I hope Drake's supposed daughter frees herself of him. I hope Drake's memory and legacy is forgotten and invalidated.

Drake makes ass music. He's a shit person. Megan said it. Pusha T said it. So many people have said it. Kendrick's just the most venomous in the long line of Drake haters.

surprise Neddy tease please 👉🏽👈🏽

Okay but imagine how excited Neddy is to get to spend time with his Anthony at first.

Imagine how excited he would be when Kate crouches in front of him one morning before she goes to work and kisses the top of his head. “Baby, Soph has to leave early today.”

“Oh, okay.” He shrugged, eating his toast.

“I have a really important meeting so Daddy’s going to come over.”

Neddy froze, his heart pounding suddenly in his chest. “My Anthony’s coming here?!”

“He is,” She nodded, “And then he’s going to bring you to my office and we’ll all go out for tea is that okay?”

“Yes! Will he be able to help me colour?!”

His Amma got a funny smile on her face and he didn’t know what it meant. “I’m sure he’ll be able to do that.”

He feels nervous all day. Even when he talks to Amma at lunch and she promises him that Anthony’s still coming. Anthony’s always there when he says he will be. Always. But maybe one time he won’t be. He wasn’t there for ages. There was knock at the door eventually and Neddy ran through the house, Newton running after him before Sophie stopped him.

“Neddy, remember we have to make sure it’s your Dad.”

“It’s him. It has to be.”

It is him. He feels relief flood through him when Sophie opens the door and Anthony’s on the other side. Big and tall and smiling down at him already.

“Anthony! You came!”

“Yeah, of course I did!” He kissed the top of Neddy’s hair. “Do you think I’d miss getting to spend an afternoon with my boy?”

“No! Never.”

“That’s right buddy, Never.”

It’s the best time. Sitting with Anthony on the floor of the living room with crayons littered around them. Neddy’s really curious about his Dad. And he’s ever really been alone with him for so long before. He wants to know everything he can.

“Anthony, do you like pasta?”

“I do, buddy.”

“Me too. Amma said maybe I can have pasta for tea.”

“I bet you can.”

“Maybe ice cream, too.”

“Maybe definitely ice cream too.”

“Do you like my Amma?”

Anthony made a funny noise and Neddy wasn’t quite sure why. “Of course I like Amma.”

“But do you like… sometimes grown ups kiss. Have you done that with my Amma?”

Anthony’s cheeks went red. “Buddy, I don’t know if we should talk about this.”

“Have you though?! Aunty Eddie asked my Amma if you were a good kisser the other day.” He hadn’t understood what that meant then, or why his Amma had tried to hit her sister.

“What did Amma-?! No you know what- Neddy when I met your Amma I was having a bad time but she is… the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen. And I like her a lot. Okay?”

“Yeah, okay.”

Series introduction

quinn hughes x royal!reader

warnings: mention of domestic abuse and sa (not happening to someone, im mentioning charities)

The timeline of this au is off slightly off, Charles and Diana got divorced in feb/march of 1997 and then Diana passed away a few months later (😭) in august 1997

Y/n was born in 1996

Y/n's full name is Diana Y/n Margaret Elizabeth (if one of those is actually your name just replace with Anne)

Her title is Her Royal Highness Princess of Cambridge

8th in line for the throne

She never got close to Diana, and she has a true hatred for paparazzi, seeing them as the cause of her mother's death

She's never been close to Charles either, Charles (like with Harry) had a resentment for Y/n, thinking she would be a reason for him to have to stay with Diana and/or she wasn't his

She is close to her brothers even if they were a lot older

She would always follow William and Kate around when they went out together, which William hated but Kate loved

Also! Her brothers call her 'Ana' short for 'Diana' and to this day they are the only ones she will let call her that.

And nobody is ever to call her Diana.

Other than them, she's the closest to her Auntie Anne, as well as her cousins Beatrice and Eugenie acting more as older sister's to her

Y/n has always loved Kate thinking she was the best girl for her brother, but when Harry met Meghan-

She had known Kate since she was 6, they were sisters. But her and Meghan were best friends.

She does a lot of charity work, mostly for people surviving domestic abuse and sa, and people recovering from addictions

Full Name and Family Headcanons

For the extended 141 family plus the fruity bastard betrayer (derogatory (affectionate)), some more complete than others. If any of this is directly contradicted by canon, I don't care, that's why they're headcanons

Soap

John Steven Donald MacTavish

Two loving parents, the youngest with at least 3 older siblings, all sisters. Closely enough related to the Chief of the Name and Arms of MacTavish to a) be considered low upper class and b) know his exact place in the line of hereditary succession. Also the kilt he wears on special occasions is always the modern MacTavish tartan, do your research. Grew up in Bonnyrigg outside Edinburgh and is emotionally attached to Sir Salter Scott

Ghost

Simon Lorcán Riley

Same family and circumstances as '09 Ghost (extremely poor, abusive dad, oldest of two boys), but give him loving maternal grandparents and three cousins. He's Irish by ethnicity and heritage, which a few family members kept alive and passed down to him, but British by nationality. His great-great-(great-?)grandparents migrated to Manchester during the Great Hunger, but his aunt moved back to Ballylongford where some of the family originally lived. His cousins and maternal grandmother are all alive but think he's dead and he keeps it that way for their safety. His middle name is after his maternal grandfather who died when he was young and was given to him by his grandma. I do also hc he's trans and have a deadname headcanon for him but I don't share those. The specific neighborhood he grew up in inside Manchester was Beswick

Gaz

Kyle Adam Garrick

Grew up in Brixton in London, relatively poor with two loving but working parents, but also with an enormous tight-knit community and more neighborhood aunties and uncles and cousins than he knew what to do with. Has one baby sister but she's 20 years younger than him so she's a baby baby and he was already enlisted and moved out when she was born

Price

John Matthew Price

Grew up in Anfield in Liverpool, near the football stadium. Avid fan, ropes Ghost into Liverpool vs Man United debates every season. Ghost doesn't even like football. Middle class, working dad and stay at home mom, older sister, younger sister

Roach

Gary Parker Sanderson

Working poor, older sister, younger brother

Laswell

Katherine Emma Laswell

Middle class child of divorce, no step-siblings or step-parents, lesbian wine aunt who's basically Kate Kane (coincidentally Kate's favorite superhero)

Nikolai

Nikolai Antonovich Pokrovsky

Absent parents, one younger sister

Farah

Farah Leyla Karim

Canon family - two loving parents killed by AQ, one older brother. Her middle name is the Georgian spelling of the Arabic name Layla (see my post about Urzikstan and Abkhazia for why this spelling)

Alex

Alexander Jeremiah Keller

Two older sisters, two triplet sisters (one an hour older, one three hours younger), two younger sisters, single mom, also raised by aunt and grandmother

Alejandro

Alejandro Ernesto Vargas Leon

Grew up working poor, dad died when he was three, mom had to work, older brother 4ys older took jobs for the cartel starting at 12-ish to make ends meet and left Ale as the "man of the house" at 8. Also has one 4ys younger sister (same dad, mom was pregnant) and 12ys younger twin baby brothers (different dad who chose not to be in the picture, oopsie babies). He loves the twins but wants to hang them upside down by their shoelaces more often than not, his sister is just as mischievous but more mature and subtle about it which made her easier to raise

Rudy

Rodolfo Ildefonso Parra Rosales

Born into a poor family, cartel killed his parents when he was three, adopted by a single mom after that. His new family is unrelated to the Cartel but his bisabuela is just as feared and respected as El Sin Nombre and La Araña before her, if not more in some parts of the city. Learned his best chancla skills from her. Only child but grew up in a massive multigenerational multifamily home with at least 20 older cousins - was the baby until he was 7 and now he's the second youngest

Graves

Phillip Windsor Graves

Upper class, born to parents who had an heir to the company because it was expected of them but who didn't actually want or like kids. Essentially raised by a rotating cast of nannies

“… So, this Gunny is going to become a Medal of Honor recipient?” Price stood from the bench. 

Laswell nodded her head. “Yes… he will. It’s practically guaranteed that in a few weeks the proposal will be on the President’s desk and signed.” She sighed. “Let’s talk more in private.”

She led them to a small room that usually held debriefings but was now converted into a storage room. The projector and computer monitors were still up and covered in dust. 

“Tell us more about the Gunny, Laswell.” Gaz looked at her and then to his Captain in worry. They both sat in the old chairs, arms resting on the light gray table. 

Laswell sat across from them. “Well, he went through a lot in the last few years. Put his poor wife through lots of heartache with his recovery and all…”

“Wife?” Both Gaz and Price questioned. John shook his head. Was the Gunny cheating? 

“Yes? They’ve been married for several years now. I’ve collaborated on several occasions with her.” Kate leaned forward. “Is there something you’re not telling me?”

“Kate, this man knows my daughter.” John stuffed his hand into his pocket and pulled out the skimpy photo of his little girl, now grown woman. 

Laswell’s eyes widened, but then her expression changed to an awkward grin. “That’s his wife. Y/N Cortéz, that’s your daughter?”

“You know her by name? How do you know my daughter?” But instead of saying Price after her name, she said Cortéz. John was becoming more confused by the second. His knee was bouncing slightly and his hand was messing with his beard. It took him a moment to process all of her words. “Wait-, you said Cortéz? She… she’s never told me that she was seeing anyone let alone married to them. What the hell is going on here, Kate?”

“I-I don’t know what to say, John. She’s never mentioned her side of the family before. Just her in-laws and their kid.”

“Kid?” Price stood up, palms slamming on the table. “Do you mean to tell me that I have a grandchild out there?”

Kate put a hand to her mouth in shock. “My god… you didn’t know.” Her eyes wandered off to the wall, contemplating. “You don’t know what the life of your daughter has been for… years now?”

“No. Which makes no bloody sense since I talk to her every chance I get!” His voice rose in frustration. Kyle felt like he was in some poor written soap opera that his aunties would watch when he was younger and had stayed with them. On second thought, it was every time he saw them. 

“John, Y/N works with me in CIA. She’s a Special Agent in the counterterrorism division.” Price sat back down heavily. “Umm, I have resources in the Naval Criminal Investigative Service that could lend a helping hand on this situation. I’ll give them a call, since the Gunny is a Marine and Y/N is a dependent so she falls under their jurisdiction.”

“Thank you, Kate.” John paused. “I hope they can set everything straight.”

With that Kate left the room. She couldn’t believe that the girl whose office was only a few doors down from hers was the daughter of her best task force Captain. Kate shook her head as theories ran through her mind. Pulling out her phone she dialed a number. She hoped that the late hour in Washington wouldn’t be a bother to the person on the other line. 

“Sorry it’s so late, Jethro.”

~~~~~

Price stayed where he was for a moment just staring off into space. Only startled by Kyle placing his hand on his shoulder. “Maybe we should head back to the med tent and see if there are any updates on the Gunny?”

Price looked at the younger man and then rose to his feet. “Yeah, there’s no use just sitting here.”

They soon found themselves in their previous position on that old bench. Waiting for any news. An hour passed by when a doctor, presumably the surgeon who operated on Cortéz, exited the OR and came up to them. 

“My guess is that you guys were the ones who found Gunny Cortéz?” She looked at them attentively. 

“Yes, we found ‘im.” Both John and Kyle stood up. John continued, “He’s still alive, right? No complications?”

“Yes, he’s been taken care of. Lots of bleeding so he needed a few blood transfusions. No head trauma, but he’ll be in and out of consciousness for a while. He might need another surgery if we find anymore bullet fragments.” She looked between the two of them. “He’ll be moved to a different room in just a few moments. Next of kin will be notified of his condition and efforts will be made to get him back to the states.”

Price thanked the doctor and shook her hand. He had a lot to think about and he was definitely going to send a rather strong message to his daughter about the situation.

Wedding memories | Yelena Belova

Pairing: Yelena Belova x Reader

Summary: Your kids want to know more about your wedding day. You spent the afternoon showing them your wedding album and telling them stories of your and Yelena's special day. [Full request]

Marvel masterlist | Words: 1K

You were sitting on the floor of your living room surrounded by your kids. Ollie and Flynn were sitting on the ground with you, playing trains, while Milo, your youngest, was sound asleep in your wife's arms. The boys had been wanting to play trains all day after seeing a real train on their way home from visiting their grandparents. You happily played along driving the train carts around or making the tracks shift, the boys were smiling from ear to ear, which in return made you very happy. 

Looking up at Yelena you smile. She gives you a warm smile back and you think of how proud you are of your little family together. They were everything you had dreamed of growing up. You know that Yelena didn’t always have the wish to have kids, but once they took down Dreykov and the whole red room program, she slowly started showing interest in wanting kids of her own. Now years later you were the proud parents of three perfect boys.

While you were looking at your wife, Flynn seemed to have lost complete interest in the trains, and was now looking at a picture on the mantel. He had recently become interested in wanting to know what everything was and meant, you loved seeing him explore and broaden his world. You were always happy to share your knowledge on any topic he had questions about, and when you didn’t know the answer, you would grab your phone or laptop and learn something new with him. “Mommy, why are you and Mama dressed so nice in this picture?” Flynn asked curiously.

“That picture was taken on a very special day, Mama and I got married that day. Do you remember what that means?” The boy enthusiastically nods his head, “That’s when two people that love each other celebrate loving each other forever.” You smile, “Yes, very good! We have a lot of other pictures from that day, would you like to see?” His eyes widened enthusiastically, he was so eager to know everything, it was adorable. You look over at Ollie and notice that he was more interested in the pictures than the trains, so you say, “Okay, Flynn and Ollie, if you go put your trains away, and then sit with Mama, I will be right back with the pictures.” You were rather excited to show the kids yourself, you would never miss an opportunity to talk about the love you have for your wife. 

When you join the others back in the living room, photo album in hand, you see how adorable they sit cuddled up to Yelena. You snap a quick picture before they notice you there. Then you quickly make your way over to the couch. You lift up Ollie and place him on your lap, while Flynn stays seated between you and Yelena. The photo album was made mostly in order of everything related to your wedding, it starts off with a couple pictures of Yelena proposing to you. Yelena is the first to start talking about the picture, “So, this is when I asked Mommy if she wanted to marry me. I was very nervous, because Mommy is very important to me and I love her so much. Luckily, she said yes right away! After that day we started to plan our wedding day, we even got to taste many cakes to see which ones we liked best.” 

You continue flipping through the pages and explaining bits and pieces of each one of the pictures placed in the album. Flynn and Ollie are fully invested in everything, which warms your heart, they’re such sweet boys. When guests start showing up in the album they enthusiastically point out all their family members, “Auntie Nat and Auntie Wanda!” Was the first person that Flynn saw, quickly followed by, “And Auntie Kate!” Who was spotted by Ollie. You explain to them that Natasha and Wanda were your maids of honor and that Kate was the ring bearer, which meant that they were extra special guests. 

Both you and Yelena had the biggest smiles on your faces while reminiscing on your wedding day and getting to experience the joy all over again with your three little ones. The boys had probably never had their attention on one thing more before, it was adorable how they were asking about each little detail as new pictures were shown. When you got to the end of the album you closed it and placed it down on the coffee table. “Then after the wedding, we wanted to grow our love and had you three and now our lives are complete. We love you boys so much.” You kiss Flynn and Ollie’s heads and peck your wife on the lips. 

“I have an idea.” Yelena says out loud, “How about we go celebrate these special memories by getting some ice cream?” Of course, both Flynn and Ollie are over the moon about that idea, they both run off to grab their shoes. “Mama, can you help please.” You take Milo from her arms and move him over to the stroller. The five of you head to the ice cream parlor in the park and eat your ice creams on a bench watching the ducks in the pond. When you’re all finished with your ice creams, you clean their hands and faces before letting them play on the playground. You put your arm around Yelena on the bench and pull her a little closer to you. “Our family makes me so happy, baby. Thank you for loving me and raising the perfect family with me. I love you so much, Yelena.” She intertwines your fingers in her lap and kisses your check. “I love you very much too, darling. I cannot imagine my life without you or our boys. I’m very happy with how far we have come and I can’t wait to grow old with you and watch the kids grow up together.”

regarding your asks post - something about stephcass wedding?

d'aw!! I'm waiting on my dad to send me a laptop (Its 2-3 years old and he's got like 12. Perks of a computer engineer dad) then I'll do a whole post of Sims Screenies for their wedding

First, to everyone's surprise, Steph is the one to propse. And yes, she did catch Cass off guard and made her cry (in a great way, she was so so happy)

They'd talked about getting married and kids, but no one expected Steph to propose at a Halloween event. Babs waited to ask what Steph was dressed as (Vampire bride) and Steph said "Hopefully Cass's Fiancee."

They kept the wedding itself incredibly intimate, like under 100 people. The engagement party was huge so rich people could feel included. It was Barbie themed and all Cass's brothers were a different Ken.

Selina insisted on taking each of them dress shopping. Diana Prince, Dinah Lance, Babs, Kate Kane, Mar'i, and Nell came along to both appointments and were the best people to have.

While talking about it at family dinner, someone asked if they wanted anyone to walk them down the aisle. Cass blinked and said "Baba is walking me down the aisle...did I forget to ask?" (Bruce was fully ready to cry)

Steph asked Jason if he'd walk her down the aisle. They definitely bonded over their childhoods and tend to understand each other better than anyone. Jason did cry and isn't ashamed to admit it.

For their wedding party, Cass had Damian (her Brother of Honor and had the rings), Tim, Duke, and Mar'i. Steph had Jason (Best man), Nell, Kate, and Dick.

Helena was their flower girl and inisted Alfred walk with her.

Babs was their officiant because they couldn't imagine anyone else marrying them

There wasn't a dry eye in the house during the vows.

They let Mar'i choose their first dance song. Since Cass is a professional dancer, they didn't want to feel pressured to have a perfect dance. They just wanted something that felt like them

She chose "Carry You Home"by Alex Warren. "I choose us everytime" is the line that sold her. Because if there's one thing Mar'i knows about her aunties, its that few people ever chose them for good reasons growing up. They have always chosen each other.

Their reception lasted all night, no villains interrupting. No Crisis. Nothing blowing up. Just good times.

Instead of the normal speeches by certain people, they had an open mike portion, with anyone who wanted to say something getting two minutes.

Damian made everyone cry with his. Just a simple quote from "The Chaos of Stars" by Kiersten White.

“I didn't fall in love with you. I walked into love with you, with my eyes wide open, choosing to take every step along the way. I do believe in fate and destiny, but I also believe we are only fated to do the things that we'd choose anyway. And I'd choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I'd find you and I'd choose you”

the marvels spoilers!!

- i missed carol so much 😭😭 i was so happy to see her again!! however, as a delusional caroljess shipper, this movie made me realize how much i want jessica drew in the mcu but the chances are slim

- is earth really the best choice for those skrulls to stay on after secret invasion???? the US president hates them and is also hunting them down just like the kree. but lol fury should've just asked new asgard to take them in during secret invasion instead of creating a giant mess and then ditching them

(i hope this means a certain mr teddy altman was among the skrull refugees who fled to earth but i'm just grasping at straws at this point)

- it's pretty funny that nia dacosta decided to ignore everything from secret invasion and we should too since i KNOW fury never brought up that he harvested carol's DNA. it would've made the movie much more awkward

- the khans and fury were way too funny together. muneeba was great, as always 🫶🏽 the best aunty

- the poor SABER agents escaping via FLURKITTIES lmaoo

- THE PRINCESS CAROL DRESS

- i can only imagine nakia and bruno's reactions when they find out about kamala's adventures

- carol and sam both live in louisiana now!! neighbors

- kamala and carol are so CUTE! they're twinsies ♥️

- carol restarting a sun...damn. i do wish more emphasis was placed on that since thor nearly died trying to restart nidavellir's sun

- no binary form though? :(

- the villain was kinda boring and i don't really understand the whole quantum bands connection with the noor dimension thing

- KAYT BEESHUP AHHHH

- not kate trying to act cool as if she and kamala don't have the same energy when speaking with their avenger idols (clint and carol should meet)

- but kamala channelling fury lol

- kate needs to get better security though since people keep breaking in into her apartment. first yelena and now kamala

- i don't necessarily want peter on the mcu young avengers/champions team, but i do want him to meet them. kamala found out about kate and cassie so she can find peter, an actual teenage avenger, too

- BEAST BEAST BEAST

- maria as BINARY!!!!

- the suit looked pretty cheap though, which sucks because the binary suit is one of my fav carol outfits from the comics.

- is maria in the fox universe or is it just a "x-men" universe??? anyway it's not 838 for sure since professor x and maria are both alive. however, it would be pretty funny for monica to visit 838 post-MoM since she tried so hard to help wanda and then wanda murdered her mom rip

- carol and kamala are both gutted about monica getting trapped in another universe, but america chavez can get her back pretty easily if they knew she existed. hmm, looks like kamala needs to find another young superhero

overall: 7.5/10

just saw your reply and id love to hear regressor kate headcanons if you have any!!! she’s my absolute favorite :3c

I had so much fun doing these thank you for asking, i love regressor kate too!! currently rewatching hawkeye and it’s probably one of my favourite shows within the mcu !!

Little!Kate Bishop Headcanons

🏹 When she’s feeling small i think she likes to go by Katie

💜 I think she’s had some form of regression since her early teen years, due to trauma. But she’s insecure about it and hides it from her mum, locking herself away and such.

🧸 She’s got a stuffie dog called ‘Pluto’ which she’s had since she was really young which is her favourite thing ever when shes small. Has had many meltdowns when its missing or it needs to be washed.

🐕 She’s quite open about her regression within people she trusts a lot as she gets older, I think Clint would find out after the shows set/christmas time.

⭐️Yelena would eventually know and become the best auntie ever even if little katie is nervous around her at first.

🏹 Clint definitely got her one of those bow and arrow sets for kids with the velcro targets for a birthday as a joke but she loves it and uses it all the time.

💜 She’s a talker, when shes slightly older in her age range (5/6) she will talk about anything and everything, tv shows, her stuffies, her next birthday, i mean anything!!

🧸 When she’s feeling younger (1-2) she babbles, random words or just making noises or blowing raspberries for the fun of it- she’s a baby why shouldn’t she?

🐕 She’s an energetic kiddo, loves to run wild in the park with Lucky the pizza dog, climb trees and scare the daylights out of Clint by doing so.

⭐️ When her energy runs out or she’s feeling younger she loves to nap with Lucky, and this girl can sleep anywhere, the sofa, her bed, the floor, lucky’s bed if its big enough- anywhere if shes comfy enough.

🏹 Poor baby does have nightmares sometimes though, but luckily enough if she’s feeling small she’s usually hanging around with Clint or Yelena who can help. Laying with her, playing with her hair, or Yelena talking to her in Russian oddly helps.

💜 She’s so fussy when she’s little, Clint has to sneak vegetables into sauces and cut fruit into cute shapes for her to eat. Yelena’s not so fussed, she will happily let the girl live off of mac n cheese and juice.

🧸 She eventually meets Laura who loves little Kate, but they aren’t as close as Kate is too the other two, she’s able to babysit if neither are available though.

🐕 Clint’s kids love Kate when she’s big or small, they play with her either way as she’s usually in a toddler/kid space around them, and they love how an adult will play dress up or run riot in the garden with them.

⭐️ As much as she goes by Katie, Clint often calls her ‘kid’ or ‘kiddo’. Yelena calls her ‘Kitty’ while big Kate insists she hates it, little Kate is another story, she loves it.

🏹 She is an outdoorsy kid, loves to play in the mud, jump in puddles after it rains, and make little houses for bugs in cardboard boxes.

💜 This girl chews, a lot, her sleeves, her nails, even poor Pluto’s ears have faced her teeth. She has a few pacis but i don’t think there her first choice as she can’t talk with them, so Yelena gets her some chewy necklaces which she loves -especially one in the shape of a pizza!!

🧸 Yelena braids Kate’s hair a lot, either due to Kate wanting them to match, or she needs to calm down and the feeling helps her relax.

🐕 As much as she loves being outdoors, if its too rainy or cold she stays indoors as she doesn’t wanna get sick. Clint will make fun shaped pizza’s with her, and Yelena will happily get a bit messy painting or doing crafts with her to keep her entertained though!

_______

That’s all i could think of at the moment, hopefully thats what u wanted and feel free to ask for other characters/send more requests!!!

I Should Be So Lucky (Lucky, Lucky, Lucky)

Pairings: Colin Bridgerton + Penelope Featherington

Summary: Penelope sings little Augie Basset to sleep in the Bridgerton's drawing room, as Colin beings to realise what is in front of him. Song: I Should Be So Lucky by Kylie Minogue.

Penelope was on her weekly visit to Number 5 when Daphne came in carrying her wailing son. She looked exhausted, Violet knew that poor Daphne and Simon had been up all night trying to soothe their son (making sure their nurse had at least one night to herself).

"Oh, my darling," Violet said, reaching over to take her daughter and grandson tightly in her arms.

"We don't know what to do anymore, mama," Daphne sighs, looking down at her son as she sways and pats his back repeatedly.

Violet sighed, knowing how distressing it can be for both parent and child - as both Colin and Daphne did this as babies. She reaches over and takes Augie from her arms, and Daphne collapsed in the most ungraceful way Violet has ever seen her.

Violet looked between her exhausted daughter and her crying grandson, as she didn't know who to comfort first.

But her saviour came in the form of Penelope Featherington.

"I remember when Felicity was like this, I can remember some of the things our nurse did to soothe her," Penelope said, pulling Augie out of Violet's arms. "Come to Auntie Pen, shhh."

Violet watched as Penelope bounced gently on the balls of her feet, and patted his back.

Francesca had been tinkling with the pianoforte, the third youngest Bridgerton kept looking over at Penelope and Augie.

Penelope was humming to herself, which caught the attention of Francesca who turned to the pianoforte and went along with her humming and found the song it seemed like Penelope was going to sing to Augie.

"In my imagination, there is no complication. I dream about you all the time, in my mind, a celebration, the sweetest of sensation. Thinking you could be mine," Penelope started, capturing the attention of all of the Bridgertons. "In my imagination, there is no hesitation. We walk together hand in hand, I'm dreaming. You fell in love with me, like I'm in love with you. But dreaming's all I do if only they'd come true."

Violet looked over at Penelope, she was one of the first people to realise that the third Featherington daughter loved her third son.

Eloise noticed at this moment that her best friend loved someone with her whole heart, and there was no moving on from whoever this is.

Benedict, the resident flirt in the Bridgerton household, looked over at his younger brother and could see something twinkling in Colin's eyes. He looked over at his mother and knew that Colin would never realise his feelings for Penelope unless something got in the way and he would nearly lose Penelope.

"I should be so lucky. Lucky, lucky, lucky. I should be so lucky in love. I should be so lucky. Lucky, lucky, lucky. I should be so lucky in love," Penelope sang as the three 'lucky's were being joined in by Francesca.

Hyacinth was sitting at the smaller table, with her younger brother Gregory and the youngest Featherington, Felicity. The three of them were watching Colin who continued to gaze at Penelope unashamedly.

Anthony and Kate were also watching Colin, as Kate was sitting in her husband's lap with her arms wrapped around his neck.

"How stupid is your brother?" Kate asked, taking her eyes away from Colin and looking at Anthony.

The eldest Bridgerton child looked at his wife, with a smirk growing on his face. "Which one?"

"It's a crazy situation, you always keep me waiting, because it's only make-believe. And I would come a-running, to give you all my loving. If one day, you would notice me," Penelope sang, her hand patting Augie's back, almost as if she was expecting him to pass some form of gas."My heart is close to breaking, and I can't go on faking. The fantasy that you'll be mine, I'm dreaming. That you're in love with me, like I'm in love with you. But dreaming's all I do if only they'd come true."

Colin's heart stopped when Penelope sang about a fantasy, remembering the Whistledown that Eloise had slammed in front of him.

Mr Colin Bridgerton has made it very clear that he would never court Penelope Featherington, as she continues to look like a sour lemon, in his wildest fantasies. It won't be long before Penelope Featherington will take him off the pedestal she put him on.

As the words of Lady Whistledown echoed around his head, that is when it hit him - the love his mother had described with his father, how she always hoped her children would have a love matched rather than having a marriage of convenience. The love match he had been searching for was in front of him the whole time. Penelope Featherington. His Pen.

Penelope and Francesca sang the chorus twice and then it came around to the pre-chorus again. "In my imagination, there is no hesitation. We walk together hand in hand, I'm dreaming. You fell in love with me, like I'm in love with you. But dreaming's all I do if only they'd come true."

As Penelope and Francesca sang the final two lines five times('I should be so lucky. Lucky, lucky, lucky. I should be so lucky in love'), I should, Benedict wrapped his arms around Penelope, smiling over at Colin.

Colin could feel his nose twitching, along with his knuckles. He never expected to be jealous of his older brother and watched as Penelope pulled herself away from Benedict and set Augie in the cradle that had been purposely set there for him

"That was amazing," Daphne smiled, resting her entire body in Violet's arms.

Penelope shrugged, running a thumb along the top of Augie's head and then made her way over and sat next to Eloise.

"Benedict, can I speak to you? Outside?" Colin nearly growled at his brother, pointing to the door. "Now?"

Anthony looked between Benedict and Colin and then looked at his wife. "I think I should supervise these two."

[newtonsheffield]

I could see Kate getting sick and brushing it off, but Anthony demands to take care of her and brings in their children as reinforcements cause Kate is the best and deserves to be taken care of 🥹

Oh Anthony would shuffle Neddy into the room to convince Kate to stay in bed while Anthony makes soup. And he can barely stop himself from crying when he goes back upstairs to find Neddy and Miles on either side of her, Neddy pointing at the pictures of one of the books Anthony had read to him just yesterday.

Neddy was explaining the story, Anthony realised, even though he couldn’t read and Kate could. He was telling her the story as Anthony had told it to him.

Everything they both went through on the war seems so worth it in these little moments. The fact that he had to fight so hard to even be able to stand here in the doorway was worth it to see Kate running her fingers through Miles’s thick curly hair, her arm tucking him against her chest while her chin rested on Neddy’s head.

“You’re so much like Papa.” Kate hummed, not noticing Anthony, “He’s a sweet boy as well.”

“Can you tell me how you and Papa met?”

Kate chuckled, “You know that story.”

“Can we hear it again? It’s my favourite.”

“Again!” Miles cried from his spot, shifting closer and Kate laughed, kissing them both quickly.

“Okay, Again. One day, Your Auntie Daph and Auntie Edwina and some of the other ladies organized a big party for everyone in the village.”

“And Papa was handsome!”

Kate chuckled again and Anthony’s heart fluttered, “Papa was very handsome, but he was also very silly.”

“I wasn’t very silly!” Anthony slipped into the room, ignoring his wife’s tut as he balanced the tray he was carrying in one hand, still leaning heavily on his cane after all these years. “I’m fine darling.” He settled on the other side of the bed, “now, I believe we were hearing a story.”

Frank Ocean- Blonde

helloooooo and welcome to the first episode of the 2016 edition of kate @zinphandel rating and reviewing dans howell’s favourite albums of the year! today we are reviewing frank oceans blond!

Initial Thoughts?

guys!!!!!!! i’m SO excited to get into this episode. i LOVE blond. like i don’t think u understand how much i LOVE this album. like this is probably my favourite album of all time. i have listened to it at least once a week for the past 8ish years like….. this album means so much to me you don’t even understand. I have a tattoo for my favourite song from this album! i have a shitty bootleg vinyl of this album! i wrote essays in my undergrad uni degree about this album! i know the story of the album so well! i can’t WAIT to share this album with you all especially if somehow you have never listened to it before!!

Is this a first time full album listen through?

nope! i’ve heard it maybe more than i’ve heard any album in my life, i know it like the back of my hand, however, i love an excuse to listen through again.

Listen through:

(gonna do this a little differently than usual and just talk through the tracks otherwise this would be 10,000 word essay about how much i adore this album and no one needs to read that lol) (oops this is accidentally still far too long)

•even on song 1 this album is off to an incredible start, and sets up the more uptempo first half of the album perfectly. ‘nikes’ is the perfect opening track. the pitched up vocals transcend and make this track ethereal and otherworldly. it sets up the themes of the albums so perfectly (consumerism, duality, black masculinity etc)

• track 2 is ‘ivy’ which i know is a fan favourite BUT FOR ME because the rest of the album is so strong this towards the bottom of my track ranking (it’s still a 10 though). a beautiful emotional song about the highs and lows of your first love

•track 3 ‘pink + white’ is ethereal, its sounds like a being in warm bubble bath whilst transcending to heaven. the BEYONCÉ BACKING VOCALS. im literally rising to another plane of existence listening to this track.

4. okay interludes can be annoying but ‘be yourself’ is iconic. it’s an actual voice message from frank oceans auntie- i can recite this word for word. sluggish! lazy! stupid! and unconcerned! runs through my head whenever i accidentally get a little bit too high.

5. ‘solo’ is probably the most classic pop r&b track on the album which i’m not usually the biggest fan of but this song is both so fun and so gorgeous. the name solo and how it’s used throughout the song is fun example of the duality of the album, as it can be interpreted as being ‘solo’ or ‘so low’ v fun detail!

• ‘Skyline to’ is gorgeous. not my favourite on the album buts frank’s voice is just ethereal on this. ‘that’s a pretty fuckin fast year flew by’ hits every time. beautiful

• we are into the BIG HITTERS of the album. ‘self control’ is a perfect r&b ballad. the lyrics on this are some of the best on the album ‘wish we’d grown up on the same advice’ is one of my favourites. also a cheeky yung lean feature! shivers down my spine every single time i hear this. just beyond good.

•’good guy’ is a lonely raw track, with just frank oceans voice and the piano. the rawness translates in the lyrics as well. such a great edition to the album. it’s just a step above an interlude, but sets up the next song so well

• AHHH (apologies guys this next point might be very long)

• track 9 is ‘nights’, which is probably my favourite song of all time. nights is SO incredible; in my opinion the best song on the album like it gives me goosebumps everytime.

•it exemplifies the theme of duality which is present within the album more than any other song within the album, as at 3 minutes and 30 seconds into the song (also exactly 30 minutes into the hour long album) the beat switches. (i love this moment so much i have it tattooed lol) this beat switch, from the uptempo guitar based first half, into the darker, slower second half. (the most unreal moment. it’s so ethereal) this half is also reflected in the album as whole, as the second half of this album follows the pattern of being the darker, more somber counterpart of the first 30 minutes. the theme of duality is also seen in the album title (blond/blonde), the themes of masculinity and femininity, bisexuality, how each song on each half of the album has an equal counterpart. (plus a version of solo on each side)Also, the dual album drops (blonde and endless) (that is an essay for another time how frank FINESSED the fuck out of def jam) Nights demonstrates this duality better than any song, and is an absolute GOAT song. if you listen to anything off this album please let it be this

• and after the GOAT song we get a feature from one of my GOATs (andre 3000) on ‘solo reprise’ this is the only song that frank doesn’t sing on but it’s so worth it for an andre feature. the solo/so low duality comes into play again with the themes of this song. i fucking love this one!

• ‘pretty sweet’ may be one of the strangest but best moments on the album, the change of pace is so abrupt and unexpected and chaotic. but when the beat drops???? just next level stuff

• ‘A Facebook Story’ is my least favourite interlude, and usually a skip for me tbh, but it works perfectly when listening to the album all the way through

•’close to you’ interpolates a stevie wonder cover of ‘close to you’. it’s one of my favourites and definitely an underrated track on the album. it’s fun and weird and so pretty

•’white ferrari’ is another big hitter. absolutely crushing and heartbreaking and hits so hard. it’s a glorious perfect ballad about death and love and foreverness. a high point of the album FOR SURE, the last verse literally kills me every time i listen. 10/10

• next track! “siegfried’ is haunting, raw and heartbreaking, the strings halfway through are OTHERWORLDLY. so gorgeous.

•’Godspeed’ feels like a gospel hymn, with the organ in the background, a gospel singer in the outro, religious imagery and references throughout and yung lean (hello again). it feels like a beautiful send off for the album, as it is the penultimate track

•final track guys! ‘Futura free’ is the perfect closing track. like nights, it also features 2 halves, with a silent interlude in the middle where futura free ends and the interview begins’ the song is looooooong (9:24) because of this, however it’s clearly intentional as it makes the album the perfect 1hr length.

• the first half closes out the album perfectly, and wraps up the themes presented throughout. the interview in the second half is so sad to listen to now, as ryan, franks little brother who is being interviewed passed away a couple of years ago.

•it is also also a ‘light year’ long (9:24 is 9.4 minutes and a light year is 9.4 trillion kilometres) (the final line of the album is ‘how far is a light year’)

Favourite song(s)?

nights, self control, white ferrari, siegfried, pretty sweet

Least favourite song?

facebook story (cheating cos it’s an interlude but i don’t have a least favourite song!)

Would i listen again?

obviously. i’ve listened to it again since i started writing this review yesterday. it’s always in my rotation and always in my spotify wrapped

Do i recommend?

pleaseeeee PLEASEEEEEEE for the love of god listen to this album if you haven’t before. it’s life changing of course i recommend.

What would I rank it out of 10?

10/10. perfect album

WELL. that was a long one sorry guys. so glad this topped dans albums of year list, like i SO get it. 2016 closeted dan clearly related to the themes of this album so much. i’m so glad he’s happy now :). anyway! see you tomorrow for the next one 🫡🫡 love u <3

Too Rough

Summary: Based on the Bluey episode where Bandit plays with Bingo and Bluey, but plays rougher with Bingo than she likes.

Pairings: Werewolf/Pup!Fem!Reader x Werewolf!Mama!Natasha x Human!Mommy!Maria

Warnings: Nothing serious, just a bit of fluff. I guess you could say boundaries were crossed, but they are later established.

A/N: I have no idea what Bluey episode it is, but I saw it the other day and it made me cry, so... ta da.

*not my gif*

You giggled as you played with Kate, tackling each other safely whilst keeping ears and tails safe. Eventually, you grew tired and she noticed, coming over to you on the couch as you panted.

As soon as she began to lick your ear clean from her splash of saliva, you began to giggle. Your loud laughter brought the attention of your aunts, uncles, and your moms. 

Clint and Laura, one of the two human/werewolf pairs in the pack, had adopted Kate when her mother was sent to prison, her father already passed on. And with Clint and Laura being so close to your moms, she had begun to feel like an older sister, even though she looked nothing like your moms.

“Well, would you look at you two!”

A chuckle from your moms made your small tail wag. “Mama! Mommy! You’re back!”

You giggled as Natasha tackled you, tucking you into her as she rolled across the tiles. Her auburn tail matched yours whilst you had brown ears like Maria’s hair, your eyes like sparkling rock pools.

“How is my little pup?” Natasha cooed as she gently licked the fur of your ear back into place, making you giggle more.

“I’m good, Mama! How was the mission?” You asked, nuzzling into her as she stopped licking.

“It was very good. Your Mommy and Auntie Wanda are some of the best agents I’ve seen.” She praised, looking at her human wife.

“They are the bestest!” You exclaimed.

“Now, are you ready for some play time?” Natasha looked between you and Kate, which made both of you grin.

“Play time!”

“Natasha…” Maria warned her fast-wagging tail, both yours and Kate’s doing the same.

“Play time is in the playroom, remember?” Laura reminded Kate, who’s ears flattened slightly before she nodded.

“I’m sorry I forgot, Momma Laura.” She murmured.

Natasha scooped her and you up into her arms, gently kissing your foreheads before she walked you all into the playroom. The ‘playroom’ was actually an extension of the training room, in which it held much safer equipment that the wolves could always use to play with smaller wolves or pups.

Natasha put you both down and watched you run around a bit, jumping and playing on the little obstacle courses before Kate came over to her. “Auntie Nat, can you play with us?!”

“Sure, kiddo!” She grinned, coming towards you both.

You smiled at her and she gently kissed your ear. Kate suggested playing Wrestles, where the winner of the best wrestle gets to have a lolly later. Kate went against you first before she went against Natasha, to which the Russian played gently but firmly, winning convincingly.

“Alright, Y/N, your turn!” She exclaimed, pulling you into ‘the ring’.

You giggled as you circled each other, playful snaps and giggles between your wrestles. However, Natasha’s strength got the best of her and she played a bit roughly, making you give up and surrender.

“That was a good wrestle, moya detka (my baby).” She cooed, kissing your cheek softly.

She went back to playing with Kate and you came when Maria called you for lunch, smiling at the little pieces of chicken she’d cut for you. “Thanks, Mommy!”

“You’re very welcome, my little wolf.” She kissed your forehead before eating with you.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖⧖\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

When Lila and Cooper got home from school, another playtime session began. Clint and Natasha were excited to play with them since they didn’t often play, whilst Laura watched over as Maria and Wanda cooked a feast for dinner.

You giggled as Clint tickled you and played gently with you and Lila, whilst Kate and Cooper roughly tackled Natasha. Their shrieks of laughter and giggles sounded amazing, but you were much more happy playing with Clint at the moment.

“Alright, you, I have five more minutes before I have to go do some work, so it’s Mama-Pup playtime.” Natasha yanked you from Clint’s grasp and began to tickle you.

You giggled along half-heartedly as she flipped you and rolled you around, but you felt guilty that you were glad when it was over. Clint was with Lila and Cooper, calming them down from the playtime, so he didn’t see your flattened ears and your unhappy tail hanging low.

You bumbled along outside, sitting underneath the table shrouded with a tablecloth and curled up into yourself. You sniffled softly as tears sprung to your eyes - these big emotions didn’t come by often, and you wished you could tell Natasha.

“Who’s hiding under the table there?” A familiar voice made you giggle, your tail wagging slightly.

“Raaa!” You jumped out from underneath the table, exuding a laugh from Maria as you playfully trapped her leg. 

“Ahhh! You got me!” She chuckled, but noticed how your eyes were still brimmed with tears.

She knelt down to your level and brushed away your tears into the little tufts of fur by your ears. “What’s wrong, my little wolf?”

“Mama’s playing too rough with me.” You murmured, making her gently scratch behind your ear.

“Yeah, she does play too rough sometimes, doesn’t she?” She replied.

“Yes.” You nodded.

“Did you use your big girl bark?” She asked gently.

“No… because I don’t have a very good big girl bark.” You answered.

“Really? Show me.” 

“Ruff.” Your little bark was almost whispered.

“Oh, that’s alright. It just needs to be bigger.” She chuckled.

“Ruff!” You barked, which was slightly louder.

“Even bigger!”

“RUFF!” You barked, which sounded almost like a squeak.

“Whoa! There it is.” She grinned, watching your tail wag a bit faster.

“Now come on, let’s go find Mama.” She stood, taking your hand.

You came to Natasha’s closed office door, nodding to Maria when she asked if you were ready. She knocked twice and a few muffled words came through before Maria opened the door anyway.

Natasha turned to see you both, little stragglers of Kate, Cooper, and Lila standing next to you. “What’s up?” She asked, looking to Maria for guidance.

“You’re in trouble.” The three pups chorused smirkingly.

“No one’s in trouble.” Maria replied, her tone warning them to be quiet.

“Y/N just has something she’d like to say to Mama, that’s all.”

You shuffled over to Natasha, who gently picked you up and placed you on her knee. “What’s wrong, pup?” 

“Sometimes you play too rough with me.” You murmured, fidgeting with your little fingers.

Her face fell slightly. “Oh, Y/N, really?” She asked, to which you silently nodded. 

“Oh, I’m so sorry, detka. I didn’t realise. I think I just forget you’re a bit younger than your cousins.” 

“I’m only four.” You added.

“But Mama, we don’t want you to stop playing with us.” Maria looked between you and Natasha, even though you couldn’t see.

“I’m just gonna get better at using my big girl bark.” You shuffled closer to Natasha, leaning on her.

She gently lifted your head up to look at her. “Well, how about we practise?” She offered.

“Okay.” 

She held you in her arms as you all walked to the playroom, the three cousins watching as she came towards a big bouncy gym ball.

“So, is this rough okay?” She asked as she held you over the ball and bounced you against.

You giggled. “Yes, that’s okay!”

She lifted you slightly higher. “Okay, how about this rough?” She bounced you again.

Your giggles soared up the octaves, your body wriggling in her grip. “Yes, that’s okay too!”

Another sector higher had your tail slow in its wagging before she bounced you roughly. “RUFF!” You barked, to which you were met with a warm embrace and a few licks by your cheek.

“Okay, too rough. Now I know!” Natasha beamed.

“Thank you for listening, Mama.” You nuzzled against her, to which she rumbled softly and walked to the kitchen with you in her arms.

“Hey, Wands. Is dinner ready yet?” She asked.

“Almost. I’ve got about ten more minutes of simmering and then it’s done.” The brunette replied, smiling at you.

“Good. Just enough time.” Natasha muttered to herself, but you obviously heard.

“Enough time for what, Mama?” 

She didn’t answer you but sat down on the corner of the couch, curling herself up before pulling you into her chest. You curled up right against her, just close enough for her to look after you with a few licks here and there.

Soon, you were joined by the rest of the pack, all of them smiling at you before Maria brought you both a bowl of dinner. Maria fed you whilst you sat against Natasha, the three of you moving under one blanket for movie time.

Natasha gently kissed your tired temple as your eyes began to flutter closed, the feeling of your Mama and Mommy’s warmth guiding you to sleep.
