Charlastor week 2024: Day 6 Marriage Proposal "Now that I've rescued your little town from certain doom, I'm gonna take the mayor's daughter as payment, witness us at the chapel and don't say anything you'll soon regret. yeehaw"

[dusty-pistol]

Would yall crucify me if I drew suggestive Callum art yes or no

[bellaroles]

I like it that their rivalry didn't stop after their falling in love but their care for each other is more obvious every chapter. Cui Buqu seems cold and distant sometimes but that's on the outside. The feelings are mutual. And they still can't stop bickering lol.

[turtle-trash]

Oh yea since it’s pride I should probably remind people

It’s pretty likely that Arizona and Cashmere are both trans due to their designs (Ari not having udders and Cashmere being the only female deerfolk with a unique antler shape)

And, if that’s not satisfactory enough, in a actual tweet by the mane6 dev team stronghoof was basically revealed to be bi

AND there’s also the shipteasing w Ollie and Cashmere through dialogue in the story mode and a bot name (seriously. Open the tfh Wiki and go to the bot names page and go to Ollie’s section), which at the very least implies that Oleander likes girls

So yea, there’s quite a few queer characters in tfh

It's fair to assume that at any given moment I'm thinking about David Ward in Oh God Oh Fuck Oh No Where Am I This Time Why Does This Keep Happening To Me (releasing as part of TSV Phase 4 in 2032). Funniest shit Eskew Productions have pulled

There's a predator cult out there

When Arizona enters Reine City in Chapter 1, you can go into a house where the reindeer inside complain about scary noises in their basement, and one of them gives you the key to the basement assuming you're the person they hired to take care of it.

If you go in there you're immediately trapped by predators, and you end up discovering the basement is part of a larger underground complex. Going to the right first leads you into a room with a doll that's described as "really old," and continuing has Arizona enter the Reine City sewers.

Continuing upwards leads you towards the Altar of Appetence, which proceeds to open and out comes a bear and several other predators. You do canonically defeat them, but going up to the now-closed altar and interacting with it has Arizona mention concern over the fact she can't wait around for it to open again.

Later on in the Temple of the Ancestors there's yet another one, the Altar of Esurience, which has Arizona battle a similar set of predators and causing the altar to close.

Now, the AoE, while out of place thematically, at least seems to match the stonework and color of the surrounding themple. The same can't be said about the AoA, which has the exact same style but in a modern sewer setting.

Here's my theory: someone put it there not too long ago, and the same thing probably goes for the one at the Temple.

Think about it, the predators were banished at the very least over a thousand years ago. Reine City on the other hand has no records of being as old as that. If the altars were from the time predators got banished, the reindeer building the sewer system would've stumbled upon the AoA and either moved it elsewhere for research/display (they have a large museum of history and art, after all) or deliberately destroyed/buried it, they wouldn't have left it perfectly centered and positioned in a large spare room.

Texas' story has accompanying images, and they show ungulates opening a dimensional rift in the sky to banish the predators, there's no mention nor depiction of them using the altars to accomplish this.

There's also the fact they have morbid names that only the players get to see. They're not "mysterious altar" or "strange rock" or even "????", they've got concrete titles revolving around hunger.

Their locations are perfect for maximizing the carnage predators will cause once they escape. The one under Reine City is accessed through the basements of civilian buildings, and flavor text in the game's official site mentions the Temple of the Ancestors is a popular destination for archaeologists, adventurers and grave robbers.

Outside of sheep dogs (which are definitely not behind this) and maybe Fred, there's no confirmation there's any group of predators that are still around in Foenum, which means that, whoever put those altars where they did, were definitely ungulates. For what purpose? Who knows, maybe to convince predators to give them power, or some fantasy version of ecofascism, or maybe just plain old doomsday cult-esque beliefs.

w: pregnancy, profanity— fluff!

Ever since your pregnancy announcement was revealed to Oikawa, he had been pestering the both of you to do a big gender reveal like all the ones he had seen online and the ones within his family. He'd create some idea that would instigate your feelings towards it. Some like pouring the coloured powder in the muffler, or hiring trained doves to drop parcels of confetti on top of the venue. Obviously, if you two did agree, he wouldn't mind paying for it.

But, Hajime being Hajime, would always brush the idea off because he knew you weren’t the type to do outrageous things and most likely lean to the more minimal side— just like him.

However, you would soon enough, grow fond of the idea when he saw how your eyes slightly widened and eye brows raise in excitement at the thought of revealing your baby’s gender like how Tooru planned.

After going over a small portion of somewhat of a plan, Haji contemplated if he really knew you that much.

You had very, very exciting ideas; “Should we do like those canon ones with the powder inside, oh! Or like make the boys dress up in baby costumes and see which gender wins?” He thought his assumption with you keeping your pregnancy reveal minimal was correct, but no.

As much as it hurt his ego to know your change in behavior and him not knowing, he loved seeing you overly excited for things as it was fairly rare to see you do so.

Which is why now he has a camera shoved in his face with a sly Makki and Mattsun behind it. “So big daddy, tell us which gender your semen seed is going to be,”

Hajime grimaced at how profoundly rude it was for them to call his baby a ‘seed’, although they were correct on some terms, it was out of pocket to say the least.

He looked down at his pink shirt to state the obvious fact that he’s rooting for a girl before looking back at the camera.

“Well for me, my baby”—he said glaring at the two behind the camera—“is going to be a girl, I’m the dad and you know, dads are always right,” he proudly said whilst grinning and lifting his left thumb up, placing his right on his hips.

He then felt a pinch on his waist and let out a pained ‘ouch’, since said person pinched a sensitive patch he's prone to wince at. Moving his arm to rub at the now sore spot on his left side of his waist, he glared at the person before averting it to a gleeful one as he saw his lovely, skeptical wife looking up at him.

He pouted and watched you wave a peace sign to the camera before placing it on your chest and putting your free arm around his forearm to lean on him. “Hi baby! I’m your mom and I know you’re going to be a boy, what daddy says is nonsense, right Haji?” You grinned up at him and playfully glared at you before releasing a defeated sigh.

“Yeah whatever.”

You two watched as Makki and Mattsun continued recording Haji's parents and getting their assumptions before the big reveal. Hajime continued with plating the barbeque and smiled contentedly when he felt you draw your hands around his waist from behind, leaning the side of your head on his back. “I’m getting antsy, can we do it already?”

You heard him chuckle before he placed down the spatula and turned around to rub on your bump. “You really are changing your mother, you know that right?”

His hands continued to rub on your stomach as be bent down to kiss you, “ok, just let me get the boys to set up for us, yeah?”

Only Tooru and your sister knew about the gender your baby was going to be. It was surprising yet sweet at how Hajime was quick to suggest Tooru knowing the gender before the both of you. You would’ve thought that he’d be a little more reluctant than that because Tooru… is Tooru and he can spill beans faster than he’s supposed to.

But nonetheless, he’s kept quiet. You knew he was dying to let the secret out, but respected your wishes.

It didn’t take long for them to set up. The bar with weights on them sat in the middle of the yard, causing an eager crowd. You could definitely hear yours and Haji’s mom complain about the waiting together.

Tooru was quick to quiet the crowd down with the karaoke speaker and microphone Makki had lended for this occasion.

“Ok everyone! Let’s make this a good reveal and hope for the best, P.S request from the baby daddy has said to be careful around the baby mama, thank you!” Tooru was quick to walk away from the stand so the glares he was getting from Hajime didn’t escalate more.

Hajime now had his shirts sleeve ridden up, ready to lift the weights that he knows will challenge him.

You and him, along with the other three, agreed on doing something the both of you would enjoy for the reveal. Mattsun was actually the first to suggest the idea of Haji lifting weights and letting the powder explode on the ground once he dropped the bar.

It was honestly a win-win situation. Hajime could put some work into his arms and you can see them in all their glory (It was also a win for the other three, because they too, loved Hajime's muscles the same as you, but more admiringly.)

Which is why now, he’s getting ready to lift the bar which had packets of whatever color powder beneath the weights on each side.

The anticipation was getting to you, you really needed to know. It felt like magic once your anticipation was at its peak and Haji was already lifting the weight above his chest— call it couple telepathy because he was quick with it.

Maybe he was feeling antsy as well.

He showed no emotions of struggle when he puleld the bar above his head, because before you knew it, the bar was already going down after he let out a relieved sigh.

It felt like slow motion, the bar was inches away from the ground, you could see the people around you watch it with intent, and you could also see the smile of you dear husband grow once the pink powder covered him.

Amongst the mist of pink, you could see Haji’s arm shoot up and then back down once he emerged from its bright clouds, he ran straight to you, encasing you in a soft embrace.

“I was right!” He said, bending down to your stomach, “Ah my gorgeous girl, I told you daddy would be right!”

You wanted to retaliate, feelign your ego deflate since your motherly instincts were wrong, but you decided it wasn't the moment. Instead, you chuckled away your sobs and rubbed his pink-powdered hair whilst he was crouched down.

He was quick to stand up and spread the pink all over you as he cupped your cheeks and kiss ed you.

Everyone was busy enjoying the reveal, cheers coming from everyone, and you two were in your own world.

“I love you so much, Y/N L/N, I’m so thankful for what you’re bringing me each day,” his voice was now a whisper, only capable of you hearing.

You smiled, “and I’m thankful for what you’re giving me as well, Iwaizumi Hajime, I love you too.”

You kissed his nose, and let him kiss your lips that had a more softer pink to it because of the powder.

The moment was quickly turned into chaos once the three boys came over, phones in his face.

“Congratulations man! Gonna’ be one of the hottest dilfs of mankind!”

“Careful now Iwa! You’re going to have to deal with the boyfriends sooner or later!”

Hajime quieted them down after that because he doesn’t need to be hearing that just yet, he just found out his baby was a girl and right now, he needs to cherish he before time goes faster than ever.

જ⁀ 𝐅𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐘 𝐘𝐎𝐔 , various ! pt two

synopsis: his voice lines about you as his beloved partner

including: boothill, aventurine

side comments: my first voice line fic was well received and for that I thank you all <3 so of course this is for all my boothill and aventurine lovers out there! (including myself for boothill...)

extra: gn reader, angsty and fluffy moments, I genuinely loved writing boothill's, minor spoilers for both favourites: boothill word count: roughly 1000+

care to see the first part? includes dr. ratio, jing yuan, & blade!

𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐋

WHO ARE THEY? I "Out here askin' question huh? Well if you're that curious... then you better listen close."

FIRST MEETINGS? "Met them on a bullet train in a neighbouring star system. Turns out we were chasing after the same fudge-heads. You could've seen them- a sly creature that's who they were, whipping out the most slick sniper I've ever seen. I'd reckon that was one of the most thrilling fights I've ever had: came out with dents all over my arms and a broken gun. Their bullets nearly punched a hole through my cheek... hah!"

GREETINGS? "They may be a load of dormant gunpowder, but they sure are sweet! Full of laughter and courtesy. But I'll let you in on a little secret... ( Name ) likes to walk in, pretty as always- and plant kisses all over my cheek before they even say a word."

PARTINGS? "Being a Galaxy Ranger means never staying in one place. ( Name ) is no Galaxy Ranger... I'd reckon it's better that way."

ABOUT US: SHOES IN THE HOUSE "I can't exactly 'take off my shoes' now can I? But ( Name ) likes to keep the house tidy and I best not anger them... like that one time- anyways, we came up with this whole fudging system just to keep the bottom of my damn boots clean! It's fudging ridiculous! *Chuckles* I can't help it, but ( Name ) is understanding. Even if I trudged through all the grime in the universe- they'd still wipe it all off."

ABOUT US: FAMILY "You see, ( Name ) has this big family. Siblings, cousins, extended cousins, aunts and uncles, you name it. We were on their home planet once, and I finally understood where ( Name's ) knack for puttin' a real good home together came from. Their family lives in the countryside where all you can see are open fields, lush hillsides, free-roaming animals and wildflowers. Consider it a quiet paradise. They even grow their own food for fudging sake! Everythin' made by hand and land. Darlin' nearly coaxed me into joining them for dinner once, but I knew better. Best not spoil the family get-together."

CHAT: HATS N' POSES "Personally, I like my hat and flare the way it damn is. How would fightin' be without it? But of course, your partner has to be a cheeky tease about it."

CHAT: WARMTH " I've seen it in the movies- those fudging 'romcoms'- and read it in books. When it gets cold... I'm no help. Can't do much except reach for a blanket and wrap them up. But even then, metal and skin don't fudging work."

PASTIMES DONE TOGETHER? "Count me in on a dance sugar plum! Have to admit, darlin' has a fair share of good dance moves. Nothin' like a hard-earned victory being celebrated with a cool glass of whisky and a smooth dance."

ARGUMENTS: "Bitter things that's all they are. Leaves you knocked out cold. Reminds you of all the things you can't take back."

SOMETHING TO SHARE: "Following the hunt ain't an easy task. But someone has to punish the wretched. That's the thing about the hunt- you get cold, hard. Sugar follows another path that doesn't make any fudging sense to me. But that doesn't matter. None of that ever mattered, not to them, not to me or even the hunt. Call it selfish, but I'd like to one day settle down... Just like their family. Out where no one could find us."

WHO ARE THEY? II "They call me their 'sweet lover'. But really it should be me saying that. If anything I am the sweat of their brow- a nuisance at times. But they still love me. They still fudging love me."

EXTRA: IPC ENTRY "Normally, Galaxy Rangers travel alone. However, we have seen the wanted Galaxy ranger- Boothill- be accompanied by someone who appears to be a vagabond follower of Xipe. Despite the information we possess, the relationship between Boothill and his supposed 'partner' is very limited."

𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐄

WHO ARE THEY? I "Fancy meeting you here- oh? A rumor you say? Rumours do have peculiar ways of reaching the ears..."

FIRST MEETINGS? "All business ventures possess their gains and losses. However, I did not expect my pockets- alongside others- to be picked on a night meant to celebrate the Strategic Investment Department. The person who did it played their cards exceptionally well. I applauded them and the subtlety of their skills."

GREETINGS? "Despite their rather cunning nature, ( Name ) is quite kind... shockingly so. I thought their smile was a chip they played for their own meticulous advantage. *Chuckles* I was wrong, there was simply nothing to understand behind that smile."

PARTINGS? "One transaction after another, the universe keeps spinning. Don't keep up, you fall behind. Simple. I don't have to worry about that around them, or at least, for a while, until another wager must be made. Until the peck on the cheek is over."

ABOUT US: LOCKET "( Name ) has a keen eye for trinkets and bought- well stole- a locket for the two of us to share. I keep it with me, a lucky charm if you may."

ABOUT US: NAPPING "Personally, I don't nap. But, ( Name ) is a terrible influence and says I should. I must admit, waking up to them in the afternoon is not a bad way to spend my time."

CHAT: THEVERY "( Name ) is a thief... a good one at that. Oh don't worry, they struck a deal with the IPC. Primarily on their terms because they have been such a nuisance to the IPC. It's rather amusing seeing the IPC chase their own tail. We've definitely shared laughs over it."

CHAT: CONFESSIONS "Who could possibly love something so broken? It's like keeping a clock that won't tick or a deck of cards missing a queen. Sometimes, I wish they didn't care so much. It would be... easier."

PASTIMES DONE TOGETHER? "Of course, a good game of cards is a fun way to pass the time. *Chuckles* Though, ( Name ) is a terrible player. Not that I mind, I'll guess I'll play the role of 'loser' this time around- best you not tell them."

ARGUMENTS: "What else is there to say? Nothing. That part is the worst."

SOMETHING TO SHARE: HEART OF GOLD "( Name ) steals to give to the poor. It's their motto... I saw them once with a group of kids on a planet in a distant star system. They were giving back to the orphanage- the smiles on the children's faces when given toys, marbles to be exact, were so bright."

WHO ARE THEY? II "In all honesty, I'm not quite sure. However, what I do know is that luck finally worked in my favour... I'll hold onto that for as long as I can."

EXTRA: DR RATIO'S OPINION "The gambler- without hesitation- will bet 'all in' even if it means his own life hangs in the balance. However, amongst the chaos of his bets, there is one person who will drag him back to reality... ( Name ). Aventurine will never gamble nor forfeit the one person who truly understands him. Even I don't fully understand the gambler's crafty nature. I suppose a thief is the only one who can and more importantly, will."
