Let us scream into the void for our batshit insane jester into the void together-
What do you think about Shadow Milk Cookie who once had a lover during his days as a cookie free from corruption, and when that day comes where he wreaks havoc onto Earthbread, his lover stood against him and lives freely during his imprisonment.
To see their fragments in the present, whether it's their name or their achievement as one of the cookies who went against a beast... Or to know how they're known as a cookie who loves a beast until their end.
(can I be 🍡 anon?)
Shadow Milk Cookie does not take your betrayal well.
Not agreeing with his philosophies is one thing, but acting out against him— helping those wretched witches seal him away— he won’t forget it. He stews in his rage, replays the moments of your treachery over and over again. He doesn’t blame you, he blames the witches. Those cowardly, despicable, rotten farces of gods. You are incredibly misguided by them, that’s all it is. You just need a little shove in the right direction, and once he escapes, he’ll happily provide that.
While Shadow Milk Cookie does not think you are at fault, he does believe that your actions warrant some sort of punishment. He pours himself over this during his imprisonment; ways to get back at you, make you suffer a little before he feels you’ve earned his forgiveness. Nothing he thinks of ever feels severe enough, there is nothing you could possibly do to mend his broken heart. (Perhaps if you stay by his side; spend the rest of eternity repenting and groveling, proving your loyalty and remorse, never estranging yourself from him again… maybe then, he’ll consider taking pity on you.)
After he breaks free from imprisonment, he’s all smiles and theatrics. Naturally, it’s a deceptive cover. Beneath his conniving grin is a deep-seated resentment. He tears the silver tree asunder with a manic smile and a burning desire for revenge. There are many things he intends to reclaim:
First of all, the other half of his soul jam.
He’ll run circles around that false little hero— as he finds that Pure Vanilla is surprisingly susceptible to corruption. It’s an excellent warm-up after laying dormant for so long, and Shadow Milk Cookie intends on enjoying every second of that thief’s descent into madness.
Then, once that’s out of the way, he’ll come for his silly, misguided, deceitful little lover next.
#Beast of Deceit#Spire of Truth#cookie run kingdom x reader#crk x reader#shadow milk cookie x reader#shadow milk x reader#🍡 anon#He’s a very spiteful person…#When he hears of the legends of a cookie who helped seal the ‘beasts’ he scoffs#To him you are no hero more than you are a lying little worm#Luckily (or unluckily) for you… he’s a good person! And he’ll forgive you if you join his emo band and apologize 3838728293 times a day—#—for the rest of your life.#I need to make it clear that after eons with nothing to do except contemplate his conflicting feelings of—#— of anger/betrayal/grief/love/hatred regarding his (once) lover—#— Shadow Milk comes out of that tree pretty twisted. All those feelings have accumulated into a wretched and horrific obsession—-#— that you will never be able to shake.

Dragon Legacy much like sea beast Legacy with the fascination for shinies; just piles of the stuff much like his typical blanket nest >:3
But alas he cannot snuggle you in said shiny piles cuz sharp and pointy things are amongst the pretty things :’3
BUT he nice and toasty when not sleeping in said piles so all is well :3
yesssss return of dragon Foul Legacy, lover of all things shiny!!!
despite what people may think, a dragon Foul Legacy would be quite organized with his hoard! everything has a specific place it goes in, and he's very meticulous about keeping everything clean and sparkling- the prettier his hoard, the more impressed you'll be! of course, it's not particularly important to you. you love Foul Legacy no matter what, but you have to admit that his stash of shiny objects is lovely. Legacy trills and rumbles happily when he sees your smile, curling up along the coins lightly scattered across the floor, but his armored tail twitches in confusion when he sees you just neatly standing in the center of the room. oh, oh- right, cold metal and shards of gems are uncomfortable for humans. Legacy chirps, a little saddened, only to perk up after a moment, scooping up a couple of glittery chains from a pile and nudging you along into the next room over, where you keep many pillows and quilts and blankets
Legacy arranges everything soft into one of his signature nests, adding a few of the shiny objects he grabbed here and there before ushering you closer so you're snuggled against his chest. he purrs deeply, a wing draping carefully over your body as he nuzzles his cheek against yours and presses against your hands for scritches, occasionally nipping playfully at your fingers. it's not his hoard, but the sparkly pieces peeking through here and there make him chitter in satisfaction before tugging you closer and resting his head on your shoulder, all warm and comfy and surrounded by the things and person he loves most in the world
#genshin impact#childe#tartaglia#foul legacy#foul legacy childe#genshin tartagalia#genshin childe#genshin tartaglia#i like to think that sometimes if he sees someone wearing something shiny he'll pick them up#and you have to tell him to put them down#luckily this has only happened with you and zhongli so far#since zhongli's vision is still crystal even if it doesn't glow like the others#short scenario#other's stuff#good evening#chit chat#anon

How would Alejandro react to Assistant Noah complimenting the charmer for manipulating Sierra WITHOUT flirting with her + for tricking Sierra into embarrassing his boss (Chris Mclean)? 😎
Well. If Noah's complimenting Alejandro for his sabotage of Sierra in New York, the first thing he'd try to do is deny it entirely.
Despite being proud of his skills in manipulation, a lot of Alejandro's gameplan rides on him being seen as genuine and trustworthy by those around him - straight up admitting that he tricked Sierra into falling out of Chris' good graces would be a blow to the manifacutred image of a chivalrous and good-spirited Alejandro, which is what he presents himself in the early competition.
He does something along these lines to Heather when she calls him out for exactly this in the episode. Though, it's less outright denial and moreso redirection of her attention... via flirting... Speaking of Heather, the only reason Alejandro is fine with her suspicion/antagonism is because he knows that no one else is going to listen to her. If anything, Heather's "dislike" of him lends credence to his act - since any enemy of Heather's is automatically a friend of pretty much the rest of the cast.
Of course, Noah would see straight through the paper-thin lies, because he's got the same perspective as the audience (that is to say, he's got a third party perspective of the competiton and can easily recognise Alejandro as the season's main "villain", plus he's seen the confessionals) and, in all likelihood, had a hand in casting Alejandro in the first place to be the antagonist; of course he knows Alejandro's true colours.
So Alejandro would be met with a conflict of interests here; on the one hand, he's been given the perfect oppertunity to build a rapport with Chris' personal assistant, potentially ensuring himself some insider help for the competition at hand and - if he plays his cards right - knowledge and blackmail material on his competitors.
On the other hand, he'd have to drop his act to do so, which could be disasterous should any of his other castmates see and/or overhear.
Plus, Noah specifying that he's impressed that Alejandro can manipulate people without flirting would be a point of contention between the two, or at least a percieved jab at Alejandro. He's a very capable and very prideful person by nature, and Noah implying that he had previously assumed Alejandro only knew how to exploit people via seduction/flirting would absolutely be taken as an insult, even if it wasn't meant to be.
Though I doubt Alejandro would put two and two together in this instance and realise that it's just a round-about way of Noah asking him if all of the flirting he'd done towards Noah himself was an attempt at manipulation or not.
Personally I see this whole scenario being a poorly worded olive branch on Noah's part which Alejandro unintentionally snubs, thus cementing Noah's initial "dislike" and distrust of Alejandro.
As a result, Alejandro would fail to react at all, too overcome with indecision to reply in time before Noah's interest/investment in the conversation wavers and he walks away. Leaving Alejandro to stand there dumbly, wondering how Noah could so easily pick up on his schemes when everyone else (sans Heather) is clueless.
#At first I was a little confused as to why you felt the need to specify “without flirting” but upon rewatching the season... Yeah. I get it.#A solid portion of Alejandro's early game manipulation really was just that. Luckily he gets a little more creative as the season goes on.#In this scenario I'd imagine Noah is more invested in/impressed by the “embarassing Chris” aspect of Alejandro's scheme.#But Alejandro himself is too caught up in the percieved slight against him to acknowledge that Noah's genuinely trying to be friendly.#Unstoppable Force (Alejandro's flimsy ego) vs Immovable Object (Noah's alexithymia)#total drama#alenoah#assistant noah au#others' ideas#💡 anon#replies

Ahem... Now that's Valentine's Day pray for Reader because their schedule for the day is packed.
The whole club organized soooo many activities or gift for them (and they fought at least 30 minutes for people's order)
Here's someone I thought about:
Breakfast prepared lovingly by our Cinnabae (Imagine a heart shaped pancakes something or like that)
Cuddles or a romantic dance with Hamel either in our dorm or hers
Afternoon with Bai Yi and karaoke (only for you two so she can show off her skills failing)
Lunch with Eirene and Dinner with Chelsea that rent a WHOLE restaurant for us (bonus point if they put some piano music on the background)
Spending the night with Stargazer looking and admiring her the starry sky
-🐾
HELP. POOR READER’S SCHEDULE IS SO JAM PACKED 😨
As an introvert, this is super intimidating but ykw, ILL DO IT FOR THE PTN WOMEN. I’m gushing over Cinnabar making Reader heart shaped pancakes tbh 🥺 I think she’d even drizzle some of the syrup/honey across the stack like a love arrow through the heart…
Also Eirene and Chelsea renting out a whole restaurant just for them and Reader is so extra, but they’d definitely do it. Same with Cabernet and the other rich women, though I can see Cabernet just skipping past dinner and devouring Reader instead for Valentine’s Day.
Besides that however, KARAOKE WITH BAI YI. Imagine her drunkenly singing you love songs while looking at you with that dumb, yet smitten look in her eyes. All the PTN women are just so…in love with you. You truly make them happy and they want to spend as much time with you as they can. (Before the other women get to you first)
#⛓️ interrogation complete#🐾 anon#university au#adding on#imagine coquelic making the garden girls get her the biggest and prettiest bouquet for you#poor sumire and garofano are spent arranging this giant ass bouquet for you#but luckily it’s from coquelic AND them#also imagine raven sending you so many love letters to cram into your backpack#not only raven tho#all the ptn women send you letters#but raven takes up the majority LMAO

five books with aroace main characters you say....please share 👀
You are super in luck anon because almost as soon as i posted that I started compiling a list of all the ace/aro-spec books I could remember reading, these are all across a big variety of genres and age categories but all the mcs fall somewhere on the aro-ace spectrum (and personal faves are bolded)
Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire: I think most people here know this one. A world where children sometimes disappear through magical doorways to other worlds, and sometimes return. When this happens, they usually are desperate to find a way back. Nancy is one of these children, looking for a way back to an underworld of living statues that has become her home while also trying to find a murderer at the boarding school full of other children looking for their own doorways back to their worlds. Asexual mc
Summer Bird Blue by Akemi Dawn Bowman: Rumi, a teenager whose younger sister recently died, moves to Hawaii to spend a few months with her aunt, where she tries to piece together who she is without her sister and rediscover her love of songwriting, something she and her sister always did together. Aro-ace questioning mc
Forward March by Skye Quinlan: Harper, a student at a prestigious high school whose father is running for president, deals with school, marching band, and a presidential campaign all while trying to figure out if she really likes the girl and fellow bandmate who recently was catfished by someone pretending to be Harper. Ace lesbian mc
All Systems Red by Martha Wells: This one is pretty popular too, idc. Murderbot is a self-named human-bot construct (think cyborg, but manufactured specifically for security purposes) who hacked its own governer module to gain free will, and then used that free will to continue doing its job while watching thousands of hours worth of space soap operas. Unfortunately, its existence of efficiently half-assing keeping humans safe is disrupted by a group of clients who end up in hot water, all while being unexpectedly concerned with its state of freedom and the status of its personhood. Aro-ace agender mc
Elatsoe by Darcie Little Badger: Elatsoe, also known as Ellie, is a young Lipan Apache girl who has a dream where her cousin tells her the name of his killer—the morning before she wakes up to the news of his death. She and her parents travel to the town he lived and died in and work to comfort his grieving family while searching for evidence that will prove the killer, a well-liked community figure, is guilty. Also features faeries, ghosts, and other paranormal and mythical creatures. Asexual mc
The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakavic: ANOTHER very well-known tumblr book! Whatever, not gonna try to explain the plot, these are the lacrosse murder books you’ve heard of them and if you haven’t you can look up a summary. Mc is word-of-god demisexual but also it’s so evident in canon even without being explicitly stated that I personally don't even think you need the disclaimer
Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson: In a world where dead spirits regularly rise from deceased bodies to devour and possess the living, Artemisia is a nun-in-training who will one day cleanse the bodies of the recently deceased so that their souls can move on to the afterlife. Then, she releases an ancient and dangerous spirit from a relic to protect her convent from attack. The spirit possesses her body and gives her extraordinary power—but the spirit isn't necessarily on her side, and it's unclear if the connection formed between the two of them can safely be severed. Asexual mc (not explicit bc it's fantasy, but I think it's pretty obvious even without the exact word used)
Firebreak by Nicole Kornher-Stace: In a dystopian world torn apart by two rival corporations, Mallory is one of many people who find refuge in a virtual reality game that allows you to enter battle, earn real-life credits for sorely-needed necessities like water, and interact with virtual, computer-created versions of the league of supersoldiers that protect her home city from attack. Mallory has had a parasocial obsession with one of these supersoldiers—22—for years, until one day she gets caught in an attack that results in her meeting the flesh-and-blood version of the celebrity/superpowered protector. As she spends more time with 22 and his paired operative, she begins to see just how deep the corruption of the company that controls her city runs—and also begins to wonder what she can do to help the city and everyone who lives in it. Aro-ace mc
Those are all the ones I feel like writing out full summaries for, but some other books that I really like with aroace mcs are The Diviners by Libba Bray (ace lesbian mc in second book), The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon (word-of-god aroace mc), The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang (word-of-god aroace secondary character), and The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards (word-of-god demisexual gay mc, ace secondary character). The one thing I haven't really read any of is books with aroallo main characters :( If anyone has recs for those, please feel free to share!
#whew this was a lot... thought about adding books that i haven't read then was like no thats too much work#book recs#asexual books#aroace#anyways. this is probably more than you bargained for anon but luckily (?) for you i love rambling#asks#aroace books

So new DA 3 info is that Thomas will be in England because RJC is filming in Harrogate.
Source:
instagram
In which Rob James-Collier says, "I'm on location in Harrogate, lovely Harrogate, filming Downton Abbey 3."
What this means:
We can expect Thomas to be in a scene that was filmed in Harrogate 👀
What this does not mean:
Anything more specific than that 👀
#Thank you for drawing attention to it anon!!!#da 3 spoilers#<<< that's the tag#I'm most interested in the fact that they're actually filming the Yorkshire show in Yorkshire tbqh falkdsfjlkds#It would be extremely funny & on brand if it ends up not actually being Harrogate / In Yorkshire but is a stand in location for that reason#They're neverrrr up there <3#downton abbey tag#You guys pleeeease include sources when you send me these things so I don't have to go digging... luckily this one is all over the RJC tag#but that is not always the case!

Hi hi! It's ya girrrlll
So I read your rant (delightful BTW, I'm a nosey hater at heart lol) and am here to ramble too! :3
Firstly though, I'm really sorry for the situation you're in and hope it gets better. I'm lucky enough to have an accepting family (my parents and sister at the very least) and to have recently moved to western Europe where it's pretty progressive(?) in terms of lgbt stuff (ignore the fascists and right wingers behind me trying to access the governments), but I can imagine how isolating your experiences might feel. Hang in there, there are better things in store, I'm sure!
Now for the rest of your rant, I found that you've raised some interesting points, notably about how amabs can easily take on the lesbian label while some afabs have yet to claim it for themselves due to the homophobia they mightve endured and amabs probably haven't thus far (they probably dealt with transphobia as transfems, which I'm not gonna diminish no matter my views on transgenderism, but they probably haven't really dealt with lesbo/homophobia especially if they're pre-transition). Afterall, lesbian transfems were probably straight guys before, and their orientation is sure as hell not condemned by the wider society.
It kind of reminds me of this one lesbian transgirl ik who I met on a server on discord and formed a group of online friends there which included her. I knew her before she came out/identified as trans and I remember at that time she'd sometimes mention how she'd listen to lewd asmr of girls and such. She also talked about how she wished she was lesbian. So I, being the lesbian debator I am, basically said that that's not a great thing to say (I refrained from saying it sounds fetishy), but she replied with basically saying that I don't understand and that lesbian love or whatever is so "pure" unlike hetero love or something. So guess how I felt when she started identifying as a lesbian trans girl and later found out it's something observable in a portion of the online transbian community (not saying every transbian is like this, but still). (Oh yh she also (sort of?) cheated on her gf so there's that but I don't think it's related.)
I think I feel a similar sentiment as you in the sense that while I can sympathise with some of the struggles transfems may face, I find it irritating at times when people seem to go above and beyond to label/treat them as "the most sapphic and lesbian ever" as you put it, most of the time in an effort to validate their identity and place in the sapphic and wider lgbt community, when they probably never had to face the struggles afab sapphics were faced with since forever and more importantly some say some... Questionable things about their orientation and attraction to women. Not all obviously, but still. Am I making any sense lol?
I definetely don't think transbians have 0 place in the sapphic community, I think it's a complicated matter and there can be some gray areas (I also have grown increasingly distant from the (at least online) lgbt/lesbian community the past year so idrc about most discourse ig), but I kind of wish this was all treated more "normally" if that makes sense and that afab lesbians or sapphic could talk about certain things related to their orientation without constantly being scrutinised to make sure they're including trans folk in everything ever. I also kind of wish we could call out problematic behaviour in trans people without being called transphobic, but I think this applies to specific cases mostly.
Anyway I think I was mostly nonsensical here, apologies, but feel free to reply to whatever you managed to latch onto here lol.
Also, if you ever feel the need to vent and don't feel comfortable airing those issues on tumblr.com for whatever reason, my dms are always open, I check into this hellsite daily <3
~🪼
(wow retroactive preface I go on a long ass ramble about semantics in this I apologize in advance for how many times you might have to read the word "definition" lmao)
hey!! so happy to keep seeing you here around these parts (my inbox, that is) and I'm glad you especially do get some enjoyment out of my far less polished vent posts :p I always feel bad when I post something so singularly interesting to me and me alone because it is just a full on personal blog moment, but to be fair to myself this entire blog is an exercise in actually voicing my own opinions and feelings for the sake of learning to express myself better, and it is nice to know even in the least poignant or least thought out posts, it isn't just fully self-beneficial lmao
I also (of course, as always) appreciated your response! honestly, I admire how level-headed and nuanced you can be with these topics, I myself often feel like I swing wildly from being harsher with my words and trying desperately to be as passive as possible to appease everyone, and I do have to say it is an ongoing challenge for me sometimes to strike that perfect balance between understanding but still standing by my convictions and not solely focused on people pleasing. it's a bit of a weird life, in my private time I do feel like I tend to be highly cynical and sort of an asshole lolol, especially towards other people, but in public I would never dare say any of the things I think because at the end of the day, I do still feel as if preserving friendly atmospheres among peers is paramount to being a productive part of a society. I'm like the opposite of the asshole with a heart of gold trope, in a way. gold with the heart of an asshole lmao
all that to say, I think you make some really astute observations that are still compassionate to trans women who identify as lesbian, while still pointing out the objective faults of their common language and behavior! I really think this (like so many issues whose current is pushed most strongly by the english speaking west) is a matter of semantics for the most part. labels, communities based on labels, and their inherent flaws I guess. because I really have no problem with someone identifying as a trans woman and also having a sexuality surrounding liking women, or if they want to talk about it or even if they want to define it separately than heterosexual attraction. it's their attraction, and I'm not the ceo of how people choose to define their own sexuality (and I wouldn't want to be, that sounds like a headache job lmao). for me, I think the issue really comes with when personal definitions of sexuality are enforced upon others, and when suddenly, highly personal definitions become community-defining ones. the term "sapphic" is such a great example of this weird treatment of labels and their definitions. the term "sapphic" can mean a lot of different things to different people, despite the fact that it is, at its core, a term held together by a single definition. in our society people will ideologically define every single word in a definition differently (ex. what does love mean? what does a woman mean (lol)?) and so even a fairly universal term can be personal based on one's own framework of thinking. BUT the thing is, a lot of transbians/people who identify as queer/tra positive/whatever you want to call the current hegemonic popular opinions of the lgbtq+ have taken to a personal definition of words like lesbian and sapphic, and have decided to supplant the originally fairly universal term and replace it with something that does kind of inadvertently alienate a lot of people who identify with the most "neutral" and non-ideological version of the definition (women who love/are attracted to women). instead, the basic definition has essentially shifted in its meta, though the words stay the same, the meaning is pushed to imply these terms can be understood as "someone who identifies as a woman who loves/are attracted to people who they identify as women" and that's just both too broad and too specific at the same time, excluding those who don't agree with the notion of identifying into what was previously understood as a sex class, and including people who wouldn't have even met the original definitional criteria to begin with. this, in turn, creates a vacuum in meaning, allowing for "aesthetic" to take over as the primary meaning of the term. I think that's where that "weirdness" comes in.
it's hard to find community with people who are coming at the definition of what the community is built on from a completely different direction. when I think of being "sapphic" (other than the brainrotting pop culture/online/algorithmically driven stereotypes) I simply think of being attracted to my same sex, that being female, and that being women. but, I would assume for transfems, they obviously don't have the simple way of just relying on same sex attraction as a definition, because they don't see the world in that way definitionally, and must apply more effort to justify why their attraction to women deserves to distinctively be defined from regular opposite sex attraction. that's where we get the strange insistence on sapphic love being more "pure" or making their entire personality curated towards "sapphic culture". in a way, though on the surface I am still pretty jealous that they get the privilege to express these thoughts and be backed up so strongly by people I know who would care less about me, I do feel bad that they must subconsciously feel the need to "prove" they meet the criteria for these labels because for them, there is no easy, biologically material fitting of the definition. I personally will have never have to care that much about fitting lesbian stereotypes or involving my life in sapphic culture. in fact, I basically can't not be sapphic. it's just the only way my future looks. it's the only way my attraction manifests. people will see me as a lesbian (well, that or a nerdy disheveled teenage boy at first glance lmao) just based on how I don't present in a way that centers men. it's the only way I fall in love.
and yeah, it really would be nice if there was space for a community where we could discuss that reality, openly, in mainstream progressive spaces! but for reasons that would be pretty bleak if we unraveled them, people would much rather play these games of labels and proving your place in them than creating avenues for people to congregate in spaces that actually bring them community and cater to their needs.
as always after these really really tangled word threads I slowly begin to run out of steam so I'll just wrap this up and say you made excellent points dear anon! maybe one day we can all just accept that sometimes definitions should be exclusive in that they exclude people who don't fit them, and not exclusive in the way that they exclude people who do fit them, and that afab women, and especially afab sapphics, deserve the right to preserve spaces for themselves without having to worry about appeasing men or anyone they don't want to!
and wow holy shit this is a whole lot of words trying to pick apart the way words can mean other words sometimes I would not blame anyone if they skim most of it lmao.
tl;dr the meta of labels and their definitions are kinda dumb and I'm maybe more dumb for spending so much time thinking about them
and lastly, thank you for the kind offer of your dm space as an area for venting! perhaps...I will take you up on that offer...it is inevitable I will be struck by another petty urge to vent about people in my life because I continue to work with people who are essentially the most fascinating but headache inducing parts of tumblr and twitter personified and I do still primarily have very "gendery" friends irl! we'll see if I end up having anything interesting to say about it though first, or if I can bear to actually talk to someone online once instead of passively yelling into the digital void!
#anon I really love the vibes you bring to my blog I genuinely think your writing helps balance out the growing cynicism within me lmao#it's grounded and concise in a way that really forms a nice contrast with the oft unhinged and unedited mind vomit I end up writing :p#plus you just seem like a kind and nuanced person!! which is awesome!! especially for tumblr the famously unnuanced website lolol#and thanks for the well wishes !! luckily I'm privileged enough to not be in danger for my sexuality and honestly that's the most important#responding to asks.#not lying about the inevitable future venting I do in fact encounter a lot of mind-numbing progressive university student body shenanigans#young people do tend to be silly :p#myo is rambling.

HIIII WIFIIII<3
I was ab to fall asleep yesterday when I thought about something. Legacy has lots of fluff and fuzz and stuff. It would be all over the house, right? He's going to shed at least a little. Imagine taking his fluff and felting plushies out of it for him. (Also, I think Ajax would be very used to having moth hair in his mouth after transforming. Watch him have to buy a billion hair rollers to keep his clothes decent :3)
HI HI HIIIIII :D you're so right about this and this is also SO CUTE
it really reminds you of a cat, how much he sheds while also being very unobvious. you don't see him shedding- apart from when you actively brush Foul Legacy's hair and fluff- yet his fuzz still somehow gets EVERYWHERE, and it's either ginger or a light lilac color, so it WILL stand out on any dark clothes you wear. you and he have to tell any curious onlookers that you happen to own a longhaired cat, and pray that they don't question the lavender strands sticking to your shirt. you've taken to brushing him at least once a week, his horned head nestled into your lap as he purrs softly and kneads his claws gently against your legs, the brush combing through his thick mane of hair. he trills happily when you're done, fluffing out his fur and shaking his head and taking a few moments to bat around the clumps of fluff you've collected, while you rummage around in your sewing box for your felting supplies
Foul Legacy chitters curiously, peeking over and placing his chin on your shoulder to watch as you neatly weave the fibers together. obviously since it's his fluff, you have the perfect color match to make a little Foul Legacy plush- a mini-Legacy, if you will. his wings begin to flutter when he realizes what you're making, excited chirps slipping from his throat that even out to an awed croon when you place the tiny copy of him in his hands. his claws gingerly cup the small, fuzzy plushie, gently nudging his face against it with a wonderfully loud rumble from deep within his chest. he experiments with holding it in his talons, putting it on his head, setting it on his lap, before his crystalline gaze lands on you. with a delicate touch, he gently places the tiny plush on your shoulder, nodding in satisfaction. it seems even Foul Legacy's plushie version is happiest when he's with you
plus, the mini-Legacy makes Ajax begrudgingly accept that his pants will always be covered in fur. win-win!
#genshin impact#childe#tartaglia#foul legacy#foul legacy childe#genshin tartagalia#genshin childe#genshin tartaglia#your coworkers ask and in a panic you say you got a cat#when they ask to see it you're like ummmm he's an outdoor cat so he's gone most of the time#which is technically true because ajax and by proxy foul legacy leave for work every day#luckily the lilac strands are light enough that they look white on their own#short scenario#other's stuff#good evening#chit chat#anon#FAVE#also i know the pain because i have a tabby cat

atp i don't even care about this show i'm simply here for like 4 characters and one just died. prayer circle for s5 having good writing instead of whatever mess this was. kripke get away from those scripts or so help me god
aw darling i feel you. i’m intensely let down by the abrupt severance of all the potential and plots victoria had. i’m similarly hanging on by the skin of my teeth for a handful of characters because the plot itself is definitely not doin it for me 😭
#luckily i am Completely insane about said characters#mainly homelander#and i can sustain my fandom involvement on fic alone lmao#ask and you shall receive#darling anon#the boys spoilers
