#LAWL that was just a challenge for me

[writingwenches]

For the OC + OC ask game!

Pyter Royce and Rilian Royce (au where Cissy and Pyter usurp Rilian’s claim and they’re okay with it bc they don’t have to marry? Or arranged marriage between distant cousins? Or they team up to sabotage Team Black/Daemon to avenge Rhea? Too many possibilities bye)

Okay, so this one is super interesting potential 😈

house words "We Remember BITCH" *woops in the background*

If there was an heir that was closer to the claim on Runstone than him, it would change pretty much his entire personality. He was 5ish when Rhea died, so he would be younger brother aged to Rilian, me thinks~

The Gates of the Moon is used as a winter time keep during the winter times, and I imagined Lady Cissy being the wife of "The High Stewart of The Vale", or close to that position, SO Cissy has a noble enough position, so I don't think she would ever be interested in full-on usurp Rilian's claim 🤔 BUT I do think she would push them to marry if they were friends LOL

AND with Pyter (or Petyr I'm dyslexic and hate that y so much) not having any real responsibilities set upon him, I think he would make a perfect side-kick for Rilian~ Def still wants to speak revenge against the Targaryens for killing his distant aunt.

Going undercover as low-born shenanigans, or trying to seduce one of the ladies, anything! He's up for it! He was built on side-kick energy! It's only when he is given Main Character™ status that he lashes out and wants to do murder only and no other responsibilities

oooh more yuu meets sebek first please!!!

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS FAST??? BOOK 1 LETS GOO

Ace breaks into Ramshackle expecting NO ONE only to find a random guy, a cat, and a Diasomnia student

He faints/lh

When he wakes up Sebek and Yuu are arguing over him on whether or not they should let him stay

...both of him want him gone theyre just arguing over HOW they kick him out

"Is the collar a...weird kink thing?? Whats wrong with him" "WHAT THE HELL IS A KINK"

Ace tells them that he'll BEG them to let him stay ("Then beg :/"" - Sebek)

He ends up staying anyway. Loser

They find out WHY he got collared and both of them think "desurb"

They all head off to classes and everyone thinks thats the end of it!!!!

...Ace overhears that the housewarden's been extra pissy ever since he collared Ace, and hears that his roomie got dragged into it too

He bonded with roomie and now he feels bad but he wont admit it

Decides to ask Trey if theres a way where he can. Get the stupid collar off of him

"Bake a tart w me" "...what"

While making the tart Trey reveals why Riddle's the way he is to him. Ace calls him out for his bullshit amen

Meanwhile Sebek and Yuu are attending their own classes 🔥🔥🔥 When Yuu notices one of their classmates looks worse for wear

its Deuce!!! He's been given a lot of responsibilities for this upcoming unbirthday party. He says it might be because his roommate pissed off his housewarden because of a tart (Yuu flashbacks to Ace)

Feeling bad for the guy Yuu offers to help him and they get to Heartslabyul. Cater makes them paint roses w him 🔥🔥🔥

They figure out a way to appease Riddle by thinking of replacing the tart. Yuu asks Deuce why he's trying to a find a solution to a problem Ace caused. Deuce said he felt bad for him (You see, the Adeuce connection will always be universal. In this essay I will-)

So, TWO people are baking fucking tarts. Yippee.

Since Trey isnt available to help the gang with a tart since he's with Ace, they try to do it themselves (they fail lawl)

First, where the FUCK can they go. They dont have a kitchen. Yuu finds Sebek and asks him fi they can use Diasomnia's. Sebek says "HOW DARE YOU TRY TO USE MY DORMS OWN KITCHEN" (He lets them use his dorm's kitchen)

It makes for a funny sight. The loud, loyal freshman of Draconia ordering around a Heartslabyul guy and the Ramshackle prefect with their fire-vreathing cat.

Lilia tries to help them and Yuu, Deuce and Grim are almost fooled until literally HALF of the Diasomnia student body shout at him to NOT enter the kitchen- Sebek included

Sebek actually read through the Queen of Hearts' rules lawl. So theyre making a STRAWBERRY tart. Everyone say thank you Sebek

The whole time theyre making a tart Sebek looks...hopeful, that he'll see someone appear in the dorm. Deuce notices, but Grim is the only one who mentions it

Sebek just sighs and says that he was expecting for someone to be in the dorm. Theyre not. He looks a bit sad before screaming at Deuce that he's MESSING UP THE TART WHAT ARE YOU DOING

(They do not forget the sadness in his voice.)

TART IS READY 🔥🔥🔥 THEY HEAD TO HEARTSLABYUL

Just in time to see Ace presenting the tart to Riddle, who is absolutely FURIOUS

When they enter, all eyes go on the group, meaning Riddle sees THEIR tart as well. Sebek realizes with dawning horror that having TWO tarts that are not made with the same ingredients in an unbirthday party is breaking one of the Queen of Hearts' rules

Riddle is MORE pissed. Adeuce challenging Riddle for position of housewarden doesnt happen here because Riddle acts up much faster

He says that he cant believe that its just the first week and he has TWO incompetent freshmen already, questioning how they got into Night Raven College in the first place

Ace is okay with the shit talk towards him (He's not) but to DEUCE???? Fuck no (He punches Riddle lawl)

OVERBLOT 🔥🔥🔥

They...do not deliver the final blow to Riddle through a powerful magic spell

Yuu and Sebek rush to the front, both holding the plate with the strawberry tart and present it to him. Originally just for a distraction so the others could pull off the powerful magic spell

Riddle flashbacks to Trey and Chenya presenting him his own strawberry tart. And bawls. (DEFEATED WITH THE POWER OF COMFORT FOOD AND NOSTALGIA LETS FUCKING GOOO) (When i said canon divergent i really meant it)

I have no fucking idea how Yuu's thing with the whole. Seeing overblotee's tragic backstories goes BUT im going to play around with that and say that if someone's touching them, they also get sucked in

Guess who's touching Yuu's hand while holding the plate

HAHA CANON DIVERGENT BABY (Sebek and Yuu see through Riddle's memories)

Blot stone UNFORTUNATELY gets eaten by Grim this time. Sebek still tries to do the Heimlich maneuver on him

Everything goes the same, Ace doesnt accept Riddles apology and says that he has to make a tart and redo the unbirthday party, etc etc

Except Yuu doesnt know Sebek got sucked into Riddle's memories as well

...and the fact Sebek is there in the first place

Ace confronts Deuce about why the FUCK he had a tart with him, and Sebek reveals what Deuce was trying to do. Adeuce bonding 🫶

All is well. Everyone goes back to their dorms

...Sebek got locked out again (Yuu lets him stay over again)

Book 2 coming MAYBE 🔥🔥🔥🔥

"Playing basketball with the gang🏀🔥🔥"

-leonardo

I'm really stressed out choosing the right colours, I said this would be simple but i took too far again by adding nonsense in this... But finally new art!!

BY THE WAY I wrote something that was originally planned for not so long ago, just Cyryl writing his journal again

Click to view lawl

Date: unknown

"Leo, Mikey, Casey, and I played basketball at last! After repairing the court for... Almost four to five months? Finally, we can play and teach Mikey is eager to invite Casey to play and teach him how this sport works, Surprisingly Casey figured it out so fast that he scored 5 times in a row! Leo takes us into the challenge, Mikey and Leo team up, and I and Casey the other team. We've been cooked by the turtle team, and Leon Neon began to be jerky again, going easy yet being a competitive ass. I thought we were almost losing but Casey assisted me to carry on and made his last shoot. I unbelievably thought that we were losing, overall that's a good game for us. Of course, Leo would say "I'm not letting you win next time" stare..."

Fanfic Alder is a curious creature. Authors are so hung up on the immortality and hierarchy of it all, so somehow fanon Alder is cold and stiff and humorless, doesn't apologize, is awkward around people, etc. She warmly blesses the fosterlings in episode 2 of the show, and the very first thing she does when meeting with the Hague is crack a joke while saying sorry for being late. And nothing to mention of which she demonstrates the full blast of her Lyne Renee charisma several times, to strangers and acquaintances alike. If anything, her problem is that she slips into passionate speeches too much, when not knowing what to say might have been better (e.g. after General Clary lost her daughter to the Spree in episode 2). Petra is the only one who implies to her that she had stopped being human, but she's an extremely unreliable narrator with an agenda. Alder being heavyhanded with her authority (being corrupted by power) is arguably the most human instinct. In a lot of respects, Alder's sin was that she wasn't inhuman enough (which was rectified by becoming an agent of mushroom the next season lawl). Even as a mushroom, she's at ease in her "skin", from shrugging off Elayne's song to her comfortable meeting with the Marshal. (I am pretty sure that the nachos were more about trolling than just personal enjoyment.) One moment that might support the "awkward Alder" interpretation is when she was surprised by the intensity of the NOD protest at the opening of the testing centers. But even then, she immediately recovers to deliver her expert political schmoozing to the cameras over their yells. Another case seems to be that Alder does valorize glory (or she tries to impart a culture of valorizing glory to the conscripts), and we do see an example of a character who drinks that Kool-aid being awkward frequently: Abigail! But the difference is, Abigail was awkward because she didn't yet have experience to back up the rhetoric when someone like Adil punctured it. Alder doesn't have that problem, such as when confronted with Khalida. Khalida has to just railroad her instead of actually addressing her points (and we see that Khalida and Adil will ultimately concede those points with their actions when the rubber meets the road). Which gets me deep into the "defending Alder" weeds, because I noticed that people (in the show) rarely ever challenged Alder with, um, facts and logic? Which is to say, Alder's authority in the present time is backed up with All Of The Experience. When people argue with her, they should have real empirical evidence to contradict that, but they almost never do. So it's like, no wonder Alder gets so annoyed with her antagonists, when they're all such shit debaters? (With the two noticeable exceptions being Anacostia and Tally in S2, the former when Alder is clearly jerking her around between ops to affirm her loyalty, and the latter when she talks back to Alder to bring her unit on the Nicte mission. Both of them argue their cases with principles, not just a vague "your attitude annoys me" sneer. That's why their eventual disobedience rings true, instead of being power plays. They were pursuing truth, not position.) I think what rubs me wrong about fanon Alder is that the configuration of when any potential awkward happens is backwards. The fanfic always imagines that Alder doesn't know how not to be the General, that she would be at her most uncomfortable during peacetime. But in canon, the opposite is true. Alder only goes off the rails when threatened by loss (loss of her family, her soldiers, her power which she has mentally linked with her ability to protect). Not only does she have a large comfort zone attending social events, in episode 4 she emphasizes how the holidays are NOT meant to be a military tactic, but sacred. She doesn't make her mistakes absent intense conflict (unless you count her designating Bellweather unit as war meat in revenge against Petra and Wade's power play, but such pettiness still falls under being more human than less).

more revalink hcs but from this post

my previous revalink hcs post

2-4 songs that are probably on their iPod

first of all, do not give me free reign to decide what songs characters listen to, you know i'm gonna make half of them bts/kpop songs. that being said,

link: lonely by bts rm, superman (it's not easy) by five for fighting, my time by bts jungkook, and baby by justin bieber

revali: black swan by bts, hit me with your best shot by pat benatar, so bad by stayc, and wonderwall by oasis

(links to both the song and translations have been added for the kpop ones lawl)

they both have breaking free from high school musical though, because it's their couple song and they have to do a duet number to it on karaoke nights with the other champions

the one place they sometimes end up falling asleep – where they’re not supposed to

you're not going to believe this but link frequently falls asleep at the bottom of the flight range and not even revali understands why. i guess it's fairly isolated??? but the updrafts are pretty fucking loud so???

you will almost never catch revali slipping, except when you do. the easy answer would be the flight range hut, but the funnier answer is the heart-shaped hole in the rito rock pillar. why are you there. wait a minute why is link sleeping here too. what the fuck. you people are gay!

the game they'd destroy everyone else at

i learned how to play the card game 'nerts' recently and i think link would eat this game up because he's so competitive. he would absolutely kill at super smash brothers and also minecraft bedwars

revali likes a good challenging game of chess and he plays fire emblem on permadeath mode, fucking nerd lmao. i feel like revali would slay at competitive pokemon though

the emoticon they’d use most often

link uses the 🫡 and 🧍 emojis a lot, but he also gives very much ^_^ and O.o user vibes

revali does a lot of 👍/👎 and 😃 like a boomer, but you'd never guess that he likes the 🍥 emoji. it's because it's cute and reminds him of link 🥺

what they act like when they haven’t had enough sleep

i am the #1 sleepy link enjoyer. there is nothing better on this earth than link drowsily pulling at revali's scarf just to give him a sleepy kiss to his beak and then fall back asleep.

if this is about being sleep-deprived though, link is thoroughly traumatized from constant sleepless nights traveling through hyrule and developing hypervigilance as a survival response. revali feels similarly because he didn't need to sleep as a spirit trapped on medoh so sometimes neither of them can genuinely sleep unless they have each other

otherwise, link is dead silent and stares while revali will verbally threaten to defenestrate you if you even breathe at him wrong. he is 10x more violent if you bother a sleep-deprived link, too.

their preferred hot beverage on really cold nights. or mornings. or whenever

link loves hot chocolate idc idc i will not take any criticism for this. he puts marshmallows in his hot chocolate, he has a sweet tooth

revali enjoys herbal tea. these days, he's been making a blend of hyrule herbs and cool saffinas. link has revali make him tea, sometimes and they sit together in their roost just drinking and talking to each other about their day

how they like to comfort/care for themselves when they’re in a slump

link cooks/eats and naps. he fr the type to stress cook, so the whole village eating a feast tonight if link feels like shit, and he'll much better after cooking and seeing everyone well-fed :) he especially likes to nap on revali, but he'll sleep on just about anything. still prefers to sleep on revali though, and will get pouty until revali gives in

revali flies around the hebra mountains when he feels unmotivated or uninspired, just to enjoy the scenery of his home. if he feels like shit, that means it's time to have a dust bath to maintain his plumage and keep himself clean. link does not understand how bathing in dust makes revali clean, but he has fleshy hylian skin so he wouldn't get it. he also does bow maintenance because if he's not in top shape, neither are his bows

what they wanted to be when they grew up

link would have wanted to stay in hateno and either be a farmer or take over his mother's equestrian training course. i think he'd be a good archery and swordsmanship teacher, too

revali probably still would have wanted to be the greatest warrior and archer of the rito, but i think he would have done well as a bard or also an archery teacher. archery teachers revalink au?

their favorite kind of weather

both of them love a bright sun and clear skies, especially in the brisk wind of the tabantha and hebra regions. idk how to explain it but sunny day no clouds + cold wind just hits different... perfect weather for flying or napping together :)

link does enjoy it when they go into the mountains and it starts snowing, and revali likes it when link enjoys things because he's a simp

thoughts on their singing voice (decent? terrible? soprano? alto?)

y'all already know my thoughts on link's voice and a bit about revali's voice! i need them to sing a duet together!

they're both tenors, but link can hit alto notes in his head voice and revali usually stays in his chest voice and can go a little deeper towards baritone but he mostly has a tenor range

link's voice is sweeter and gentler, and revali's more powerful by volume and is more prone to belting

how/what they like to draw or doodle

link has one of those 'wreck this journal' books and he straight up be throwing that shit off cliffs. lowkey though, i think link would be really good at art and he would make stuff similar to jean-michel basquiat's work.

link has a whole sketchbook of things he drew throughout his journey through hyrule and he's pretty good at realism! but there are a couple of pages blacked out completely with dark scribbles and sometimes revali will wake up in the middle of the night to link sitting in the middle of their roost with the sketchbook open to one of those scribbled out pages, staring at it with blank eyes. revali doesn't ask; he just gets out of the hammock to pull link back into bed and holds him tight, singing softly until link falls back asleep.

revali is very much like fe3h edelgard in which he hides every piece of art he's ever made because he's embarrassed about not being the best at it, except link is good at finding shit and digs it up and puts it on display in their roost. revali can either only draw stick figures or he can paint something straight out of the impressionist era, there is no in between

(he likes to paint things that remind him of link, so quite a few of his paintings are shades of blue, green, and bright yellow because they're colors that remind him of link :>)

[corvidcrybaby]

Can I ask Hellsing for the TV series?

You sure can!!

Favourite character: Tough call but this might actually go to my darling Seras at the end of the day.

Funniest character: Jan. Lmfao. Although Alucard saying "open sesame" will always crack my shit up like lol dude you loser.

Best-looking character: Mister Alucard Vladdy Daddy Hellsing himself mrrrooowwww hey baby you doing anything later

3 favourite ships: Alutegra, Pipseras, Sertegra (I like AluSeras too but I'm wicked picky with the execution)

Least favourite character: This is petty but I'm gonna say the Council of Twelve. I just fucking hate British court politics as a plot device and I'm soured on them extra hard because I feel like whenever people want to give Tegs more challenges in fanfic they always default to this, which is fine, but it feels like EVERYONE does it and it always makes me question why tf Integra puts up with people who are depicted consistently as "wouldn't piss on her if she was on fire." I get why they're there, but they drive me nuts in fic. Penwood gets a pass though, he's funny. LAWL.

Least favourite ship: I don't harbor ill will towards many ships in general but personally Maxwell/Anderson kiiiiinda gives me the heebie jeebies

Reason why I watch it: I adore the use of BDSM as a serious narrative plot device, I find their depiction of vampires to be my absolute favorite in fiction for nailing the line between alluring and hot but unmistakably monstrous and scary, Nazi-vampires will always pique my interest for the sociopolitical commentary (esp given the antisemitic origins of the vampire), the surprisingly tender commentary on trauma and healing, the equally surprisingly apt commentary on antisemitism (Tubalcain ALHAMBRA, Y'ALL?), the art style, the glorious violence, the voice acting, the rule-of-cool attitude, the symbolism, fucking EVERYTHING dude.

Why I started watching it: Deadass I think I just thought Mister Man (Alucard) looked cool as a wee college girl aaaaand it immediately became part of my personality.

✨️ Eurovision 2023 challenge ✨️

Day 8: A country that was better in 2022 than 2023

eyyyYYYY what time is it? It's hola mi bebe-be time 😎😎😎

WRS just made me re-live the excitement I had when I first got obsessed with ESC back in 2017, aka back in the day when Romania was still good at Eurovision. Imagine the joy I felt when my country finally qualified for the first time in 5 years. 5. Years.

Of course during the ESC season there were tons of people saying that "hUhUh rOMaIniA aiNt qUalifYing DIs yEar eIthEr lAwL" which did dissapoint me, but the surprise was about to come. And all thanks to WRS' perseverance and amazing showmanship, he actually made it! Against all the odds and people saying that he won't. He was avenged.

This was a rare moment for us, since we didn't have a cringe ass staging that's incredibly kitsch as usual, but a very well thought one, with talented and experienced performers and great visuals. I used to say it before, while watching the performance I felt that gut feeling that yes, this will go though. This will qualify.

And just the song is a huge ear-worm. It was and still is (I think?) popular in Spain, it was promoted a lot here too, on the radio and everywhere. Everyone in 2022 was humming along to the catchy tune of Llamame.

This year? A complete 180. We went from best result in 5 years to worst result in history, being dead last in the semifinal and the first instance of 0 points in a sf since 2009 💀 (TVR: parkour!)

Theodor got little to no support from the broadcaster, no promoting, cringe train wreck of a national final, everything was just set for Romania to crash and burn this year. This is one of the saddest things I've seen in Eurovision so far. The cherry on top would be Romania withdrawing for next year after this abysmal result.

Other mentions: UK, Greece, Poland, Ireland

finally got port of badon finished. such a frustrating chapter in that i wanted to bring in some growth units like bartre or rebecca, but couldn't. 6 slot availability is only SLIGHTLY better than having a 5 turn limit to get 5 stars. anyways

i severely overestimated how much experience sain would be costing me if i fielded him. he's better than marcus in almost every way right now (just slightly less durable) and he's just such a problem solver. that said, good god was it annoying that i had to RNG advance just to get the killer bow fucker to not crit him and one-shot him. god damn. so many stupidly strong units in this damn chapter.

i did in fact end up fielding sain, kent, lowen, priscilla, and raven. i didn't expect lowen to be as useful on this map as he was, but he was basically a stonewall against the swordslayer + damian, both of which were otherwise extremely deadly opponents. kent ended up getting a lot of experience this chapter, even though his level ups were. . . eh. amusingly he has 14/10/12 stats for st/sk/sp. why get one sain when you can get two. oh speaking of sain, he's now at 20 speed too so lawl. i should promote him in theory but i want to milk as much experience out of him as possible + who knows, he might get some skill and defense, which would be very nice. lowen idgaf about his stats but i won't lie, he keeps staying useful.

anyways with raven, he took the north route which i've literally always used him for. it's just free experience for him basically. he got good level ups too but with those bases he would have to get truly dogshit level ups to stop being good. nearly 30 HP and like 14 speed from the jump is insane for a level 5 unit. gotta love HHM bonuses (i'm so looking forward to heath, good god)!

enough about my stats, the strategy for this chapter was to rush to the front lines by the first turn. lowen on the bottom so he can intercept the swordslayer + damian and sain on the north to handle the fucking murder of pirates that approach that route. i did end up using canas to help chip some units like the swordslayer and the nomad. hector was there to fill holes, but he also ended up getting a very good level up. beyond that, the cavs basically did all the heavy lifting. i HAD to kill the elfire motherfucker on turn 2 with kent and that left him with 9 HP, but thankfully surrounding him with sain + hector kept him alive. it's really just a matter of dealing with the problem units (the elfire, the killer bow, the swordslayer, the killer axe, the nosferatu, and the damian).

after that, i rushed the arena with raven by rescuing him priscilla and getting him to the arena ASAP. i think i got him there by turn 7 and got him a whole level's worth of experience. kent even got a turn in there at the end and leveled up. it was a big internal debate for me, but i decided to use all 10 of the turns you're given, because it felt like getting raven stronger is gonna make life easier in the coming chapters + saving 1-2 turns isn't going to make a big swing for tactics compared to making raven and kent stronger. if nothing else, i wasn't planning on saving turns this chapter and i know there are other ones to cut corners on like genesis and pfod, so i'm hoping that was the right choice. honest to god, i'm just really really glad to be done with this chapter. it was a complete nightmare to route just due to the difficulty. and yet, it wasn't nearly as frustrating as birds of a feather or whereabouts unknown could be. bright sides, i suppose.

without a doubt, damian has one of the best fucking boss quotes in the entire series. you cannot challenge me on this. "You're about to die. Scream, if you must." fucking KILLER

I think I’ve hit a tipping point of finally giving in and paying for private healthcare just to get on anxiety medication. I can’t function like this anymore.

Ontario healthcare has been stripped completely to the point of there being no doctors in my region and the majority of the population doesn’t have primary care.

I can’t repeat this fact enough for Americans, the healthcare yall once idealized doesn’t exist anymore thanks to back to back conservative governments (liberal party of Ontario included lawl) and so not only do we not have publicly available primary care now, we also don’t have the private infrastructure to make up for it. More than half the medical care I need is not permitted to be done virtually/these telemedicine clinics can’t or won’t address certain things (like prescribe controlled medications, even video chatting with a doctor [this is text based chats only], and if you need a physical assessment of a symptom? Too bad) and so I’m just lost in a sea of hopelessness.

I’m hoping anxiety medication is doable. They aren’t permitted to prescribe my xanax but the daily type meds are not controlled and maybe if I leave out 80% of my medical history, this private telemedicine walk in clinic might follow me for this? If they don’t then I realistically don’t see any way for me to stay alive tbh. This level of anxiety is not sustainable to function with.

My back up plan is still to kill myself in front of parliament with a very public manifesto about them being 100% responsible for this lack of access to basic healthcare and this being the primary reason it’s too painful and challenging for me to live ✌️

OMG YOUR THEATER SEBEK AU

Bro could you just imagine Sebek and Rollo face to face with each other and Sebek immediately turning around not wanting to get exposed only for Rollo to be like.

"Ah Sebek Zigvolt, one of Shaftlands most distinguished actor. I am honored to meet you, I have sat in for many of your plays when you were in Fleur city and waited for when you return to the spotlight once again."

Sebek sweating heavily under the many watchful stares and especially Rook's who's eyes are gleaming too much there

Let Rollo and Rook fight on who is the first Sebek fan if Sebek was a childhood theatre kid who is as popular as Neige and Vil in movies.

YESSSSS

Rollo looking over the students of NRC with judging eyes, before noticing a student he doesn't quite recognize with their cat beast familia- HOLY SHIT IS THAT SEBEK ZIGVOLT

He's a HUGE fan, even if he doesn't want to admit it. Constantly makes references to production Sebek has ever been in during the whole fucking tour. "Ah, I do remember that you used this handkerchief during one of your works. It was a retelling of one of Fleur City's famous stories about a woman who saved the Righteous Judge's close friend. Your acting as E-" "IT HAS BEEN 2 YEARS SINCE THEN LET US NOT SPEAK OF THE PAST!!!!"

His student aide and vice president always make it a point to tease Rollo for his admiration for Sebek's acting, telling Sebek that the only time he's ever missed summer classes ("Summer classes?? That's kind of sad." "Ruggie how about we NOT provoke the guy who's letting us stay over.") was when he found out that Sebek came back to the Shaftlands. He was there in the audience on his first day.

Rook is DEFINITELY not letting this go. "Monsieur Crocodile dabbles in the theatrical arts? Why, how come I've never heard of this before!" "You stalk people, how have you NOT."

Asking Sebek when his next performance will be, if he can get a discount or a free ticket (He literally has the money to buy a whole row of seats what is bro on about), just absolutely MINDBLOWN

If ever Rollo and Rook were to fight over who Sebeks biggest fan was, I think it would be passive aggressive lawl.

"I must say, Mr. Zigvolt, your acting is absolutely spectacular."

"Oui! Hearing such praise makes me want to see Monsier Crocodile onstage for myself! I fear that you may have a contender for number one fan!"

"I am not a number one fan, as you put it, but it's awfully bold for you to assume that you'll instantly reach such a title when you've just heard of Mr. Zigvolt's achievements. Give it- ah, a few years, give or take?"

"Is that a challenge, monsieur?"

"You may take it as such."

Meanwhile Silver's off to the side absolutely confused because????? Sebek acts???

3.

After a long pause, Ed turned his head, still laid back against the wall, in the boys direction.

“Like the costume, Steve Zissou right?” 

The boy looked over with a small smile, that seemed to shine even in the dim porch light.

“You’ve heard of it?” his smile reached his voice now, a pitch of genuine excitement, and Ed wondered why he was so careful to try and contain it. 

“Yea o’course mate,” Ed smiled back, chuckling lightly at how endearingly quick his mood had turned just from the recognition of the costume he’d clearly put a lot of work into.

The laugh hit Stede’s ear as warm and non-judgemental, and his shoulders relaxed a little as he joined in. 

“It’s just you’re the first to get it tonight,” he remarked, pausing a moment to consider, “Actually, I think you’re only the second person to even speak to me tonight, you and  Optimus Prime.” He cocked his head signaling towards the door.

“Fucking Optimus Prime,” Ed half laughed half groaned, remembering the burning of his own lungs after a hit from the man sized bong.

The boy laughed harder this time, “You said they got you too?”

“Yup. Must be a right of passage?” Ed shrugged shift positions to face the boy, and with the shift, the porch light better illuminated him. 

He was definitely around Ed’s age. Wisps of golden hair were somewhat matted to his forehead from the beanie, pressed against befreckled skin, cheeks rosy from the autumn wind. Two pink and somewhat chapped lips turned up at the corners. His hazel eyes glinted in the light, somewhat moist still from tears brought forth from the coughing fit.

Ed knew he must not go to his school, being fairly sure he’d remember seeing him around.

Stede hadn’t seen him around school, though this was barely a surprise as Stede and Lucius had driven half the state at least to get there. 

Stede strained to better make out his features in the low light, wondering if maybe he’d recognize him from any inter-school collaborations, which his light and sound department, being the best funded in the state often loaned out equipment or man power for. 

He definitely could have been a drama kid at least, Stede assessed, casting him as a Romeo, or Tony in his mind, definitely a lead. 

His black hair hang in loose curls and waves , just touching his shoulders. He had warm honey brown skin that crinkled at the raising of his brow, over his eyes, two huge deep brown pools. 

His eyes which were notably watching Stede watch him, in what Stede now realized may have been a suspiciously long lawl in the conversation. 

Both boys looked away, Stede fiddling with his hat and Ed tucking back a loose hair behind his ear. 

“You come here alone then?” Ed spoke, voice hoarse for no reason, throat feeling tight. 

Just then a tornado of rowdy teenage boys whipped through the back door and out onto the porch. 

“There you are baby! Iz challenged me at Whippies and you know we need my favorite definitely judge to put a finger on the scale.” 

Stede looked up at the tallish boy who was notably adorned with the other half of his new friend’s couples costume.

He was holding a much shorter boy, who was dress as Beethoven, in a loose headlock.

God did he pick the short straw on that. 

The boy starred down at the scene he stumbled into and continued on, a snide smile creeping to his lips. 

“Sorry to steal back my boyfriend,” he address Stede, his tone revealing a bite his words barely disguised.

Ed sensed danger. Drinking, plus Jack, plus jealousy was a damn powder keg.

He quickly rose to his feet. “Whippies? We haven’t done Whippies in forever!” He reached out to grab the boys hand, who, in turn, released his hold on Beethoven to take it. 

Ed began to lead the caravan back into the house, but paused for a moment , looking back to the boy, still sat on the porch floor starring up at him, worrying his beanie between his hands. 

“Hope to see you around Zissou,”

Ed  did not know at the time the weight those words would carry, but if he would have he might have chosen different ones. Been more specific.

had a dream where I was on a spaceship bc aliens and then when I went to get food from the space canteen, got to the front of the line and the alien at the food dispensary window looked at me and went “ah yes for the human” before pulling out a empty standard metal food tray with all the sections for different food on it and just fucking puts THIS on it and hands it over

good to know that my brain aliens have approximated the entire human diet down to “just give em something that makes their brain go brrrr idk” and this resulted in fucking Monster Energy Cigarettes

Reneissance fair but instead of everyone pretending it’s the Middle Ages or whatever we all pretend it’s the 00s. People show up in period accurate scemo outfits and one of the stalls/games is just trying to steal from a hot topic. You can watch live dramatic recreations of MySpace drama wars instead of jousting. Dahvie Vanity is in the stocks and you can pay 1 kandi to throw something at him. There are detailed sculptures to scene queens crafted entirely from monster energy cans. There’s a fourloko drinking challenge at the bar.

Tribute bands are recreating warped tours. There are scene hair/makeup/clothes tutorials. A competition for the best MySpace ends in drama over a stolen gir backpack. The scene queen of the fair is crowned and immediately trades in their tiara for 10 cans of monster tour water from 2009. Someone chugs a fucking glow stick and ends up in the hospital. Welcome to ...

Omg I just went through your entire Mankai Swap tag and I'm !!!!!!!!!!!

I was thinking what if, while Gekka is split up Chikage ends up hiding out at Itaru's school, either as a "transfer student" or pulls a misumi and just starts living in a storage room or something? The first makes more sense to me though. Being Regular Kid Who Goes To School would be a good cover, and assuming he still has his hacking skills, a pretty easy one to do.

Also I am 👀 at the TasuTsumu dynamic here and also VERY curious about the Tenma and Yuki dynamic what with them both being in very different stages in their lives than canon.

ALSO I'm now imagining every soft SakyoIzu moment in Canon but Juban instead (though in this case it may be Banri dropping the hints and Juza just sitting there with mii channel music playing in his head on loop)

AHHHH TYSM FOR BEING INTERESTING IN THIS AU!!! These asks always give me so much energy and strength ^_^

(For those who don't know about mAnkAi swAp, you can find more info about it here! It's an age and role swap AU.)

First of all, I find the idea of Chikage pulling a Misumi to be so charming. I agree that it's not likely or plausible, but it's just so much fun to think about.

We don't know that much about Itaru's school in canon, so I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say that it also has rooms for students who want to board at the school, and Itaru is just a commuter student. He could definitely hack himself into the system. Plus it's so funny imagining him trying to be a Normal Teenage Boy. I don't think he'd have trouble with the academic parts, but BOY the social atmosphere would be a challenge for him.

And YEAH Tasutsumu is very different from canon here because they haven't had their big separation moment. Well, aside from no longer being roommates, but all that means is that they can overwork themselves and not have the other notice.

Tenma and Yuki, yes!! They're honestly not as changed as you would probably expect from fully grown adults LOL because I think they're always gonna be bickering with one another. Yuki's main objection to Tenma is that in his career as a fashion designer, he's worked with a lot of hair stylists, and therefore been in a lot of salons, and everytime he sees Tenma on a magazine there's always some gossip about him. So Yuki is like "ya i dont trust u lawl always getting into drama smh".

SNEEFLES THIS IS SO TRUE... juban being adults is smth that can be so important... an idea we've been floating is that um. juza and banri still had their big moment as kids, but juza disappeared before banri could ever find him again to challenge him to a rematch (this is because juza joined the yakuza). And it's been over a decade, so Banri doesn't remember this clearly, but eventually he remembers - so instead of a warm and fluffy childhood flashback, its a HOLY SHIT YOU'RE THE GUY WHO BEAT ME UP THAT ONE TIME!!

Being older and more far removed from his Super Ultra Easy Mode phase, though, Banri would honestly find this hilarious. It probably would endear him to Juza even more. And I adore the idea of Banri being more proactive with Juza and Juza just... not noticing. an important part of idiots in love is the idiots part, after all.
