Hate when people who are against tattoos pull out the āWhat do you think youāll look like when youāre 65, 70, 75, etc. with those on your body?ā card. Like, first of all, I think Iāll look cool as fuck and second of all, why do you care?

Hello!. Keep up with the good posts, i really love them. šš
How about a Ran x gf reader
Maybe her messing around with his baton while he isn't looking and accidentally hitting herself while pretending to beat up people. How is she going to explain to him what happened while he was out for a bit and sees the bruise on her forehead?. And her taking a long time to confess since she feels embarrassed for playing with it in the first place.
Enjoy!!
"I'll be heading out, darling," Ran reached to kidd your forehead from where he stood behind the couch. You nodded with a smile, "Call me if you need anything, okay, babe."
"I will babe! Take care Ran."
Usually you'd stay away from his 'work office' because you just don't want to mess around his things and make his work harder than it already is however today you were bored and nothing on you phone or the TV was entertaining so you decided to take a peek in his office maybe something fun there?
You know what he does for work, and he doesn't hide anything from you at all. Slowly opening the doors to his office, you entered, and a bunch of files were placed on the table alongside his laptop. You huffed as you walked around and noticed his signature weapon, his baton. A grin flashed on your lips as you grabbed the shiny baton; it was heavy, and you were surprised how Ran carried it around, swinging it like it's nothing more than a feather. You tried to swing it around, and it made you feel like you were powerful, running to grab one of Ran's blazer. you put it on and pretended to be him. Walking in the room as you swang the baton from side to side, pretending that question someone, "So tell me, Mr. Evil man, where is the money? I know you know about it," you pointed the baton to the empty spot in front of you and chuckled shaking your hair, "No no you don't fool me, you-" you were trying to place the baton on your shoulder but it hit you right on the face; on your forehead and left eye. "Son of a bitch!" You yelped in pain dropping the baton on the floor as you held your eye, "ouch! Ahhh, that hurt," you cried stamping your feet on the floor.
Making your way downstairs to the kitchen you grabbed the ice pack placing it on your eye and forehead as tears rolled down your face; you really had no one to blame, this is exactly why you don't mess around with things because of how clumsy you are. Falling on the couch, you sighed as your phone rang. It was Ran, "Hello, my princess, just calling to tell you that I might get home super late, okay darling?" You hummed in response, "everything alright, my princess?" You hummed again, "Yes love everything is fine, I love you." You heard him chuckle, "I love you more, princess."
A few hours later, the pain was slowing down, and you were finally able to breathe a little bit of relief. You went to the bathroom to wash your face for the day and the yelp you let out when you saw your reflection in the mirror was horrifying; your eyes was bruised and so was your forehead, a small bump had formed on your forehead turning all shades of grean and purple while your eyes looked like you've been punched. You groaned as you used all the ice in the freezer to make the bruises heal, but it was no good. You knew Ran would probably laugh at you if he saw you. You were in the kitchen when you heard the front door open and shut, "shit!" You whispered before running to the bathroom. "Baby? I'm home!" You heard Ran's voice echo in, and you hissed at the sight of your in the bathroom mirror and heard his footsteps, "princess? Are you in the bathroom?" He knocked the door, and you cursed quietly, "Ah, yes, Ran. I'll be out soon. You said you'll be late?" You opened your hair, dropping your bangs as much as you could hide the bump and the bruise. "Yeah, Rindou took over the rest of the work, I brought dinner come out so we can eat, baby. I wanna kiss my princess, I missed you so much, Baby?"
"Yeah, let me just wash my hands," you replied, making sure your face was hidden before you left the bathroom. You faked a yawn as you left the bathroom and Ran met you in the hallway reaching for a hug and you Usually wait for his kiss on you forehead but today you just hugged his quickly and dodged his kiss and let go of his hug the moment you hugged him, "did you just dodge my kiss, princess?" He followed after you grabbing your hand, pulling you to him, but you won't look at him. His brows frowned when he noticed you were hiding your face from him. Which immediately sent a warning in his mind, "Hey, Sweetie? What's wrong? Did I do something? You're not looking at me." You tried to move your face every time he tried to look at it from any side, "what? No? Let's go ea-"
"Hey, baby." He grabbed your hand and pulled you to his chest before carefully placing his hands on your cheeks, and you hissed, "What baby! You are scaring me wh-AHH WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR EYE! OH MY, BABY! WHO HURT YOU?" He was panicking at the sight of your face, bruised, his eyes scanning your eye and forehead, "WHO DID THIS? WHAT HAPPENED?" His immediate response was to softly kiss your face where it wasn't hurt. He thought someone had hurt you, and he wasn't there to protect you. As you watched him placing kisses on your face asking you about who hurt you and you could feel his heart beating fast since you had your hands on his chest. "No one, Ran, honey. No one hurt me. Please calm down, your hearts beating so fast." You placed your head on his chest. He placed his hand on the side of your head, "Then what happened? Your face is all bruised!" You chuckled awkwardly as you pulled away, rubbing the back of your head you spoke feeling embarrassed, "well, I kinda got carried away playing with your baton and well, i kinda slapped myself with it, ACCIDENTALLY! I'm sorry I shouldn't be playing around with your weap-"
"You almost gave me a heart attack, my princess. Does it still hurt? That damn baton I'm gonna throw it away, how reckless of me to leave it around like that, fuck I'm such an idiot." He groaned and you took his hands in yours making his look at you. "Baby, it's my fault not yours, don't call yourself idiot. I'm the one who went snooping in your office, I'm so sorry, are you mad?" He sighed carefully cupping your face and leaning to your level, "I'm not mad my princess. I'm so freaking worried, are you in pain? Come on I'll take you to the hospital." He grabbed your hand and you followed behind, "I'll be fine. Few more ice packs and i-"
"No, princess, what if you got a concussion or internal bleeding? I'm making sure you're safe and sound or I'll die of worry." You chuckled at how worried he was getting, and yet here you thought he'll laugh at you for getting a bump with the baton.

I just had a thought- Spicynoodles in the MKEgged AU would probably want to wait for a bit before giving Haoyu a bio sibling, both because of the initial fear that his pregnancy gave them and because Xiaotian's body needs time to heal because Stone Monkeys aren't really built for multiple pregnancies.
But that doesn't mean they can't adopt!
Now I'm imagining my idea ages ago of Spicynoodles kiddos, but a few are adopted. I did conceptualize them before I thought of Stone Eggs
First set of babus were; Xuancao & Yingsu [#1 & #2], Zishan, Shuixian & Chuju [#3, #4 & #5]. Origin Post.
Then came "Iron Fan drawn from memory" Tiemian [#6]. Origin Post.
Then "You sure Tang didn't just mitosis?" Yinghuo [#7]. Origin post.
And then the "Rambutan babies" Muxi & Mudan [#8 & #9]. Origin Post.
+some unspecified future triplets, and the occasional inclusion of bud's @nem0lux3 oc Hua Jiao!
I can now imagine with Haoyu's creation being unusual + his birth not ideal - MK and Red Son would be more open to adoption than creating a fresh Egg.
MK is hanging out with Nezha - tagging along for the Lotus Prince's regular god-duties of blessing newborns and kids on their birthdays; only for them to encounter an abandoned baby.
Haoyu has been asking for a baby sibling so...
(*MK approaches his and Red's shared home in the city, nervously holding the tiny stray baby in a sling. The baby has reddish-auburn hair, and dark skin that reminds him of his spouse - little vitiligo-like stripes mark her skin. MK breathes deep to psyche himself up before entering.*) MK, walking in: "Heyyy Red, don't be mad, buuuut when I was out with Nezha we-" (*MK stops suddenly at the sight in the living room. Red Son looks a mix of flustered, horrified and hopeful, as he rocks a baby demon in a car seat.*) Red Son & MK: "..." MK: "How about you go first?" Red Son: "Thank you. I was visiting my father's parents in Youdu, and when I brought up the possibility of us adopting a child, they mentioned that the Underworld has a pretty large population of unclaimed young souls so..." (*Red Son guestures to the baby in the car seat; it's a little girl with dark brown hair and skin tone similar to MK. Seems to be mixed human-feline demon.*) MK, realising: "Aw! You thought she looked like me and couldn't even wait to ask?" Red Son, adoring: "Yes! I met with Kį¹£itigarbha, and they brought me to the banks of the River by Naihe Bridge, and this little angel just... floated to the shore." (*Red Son gently kisses the baby's head*) Red Son: "They said that it's how little ones... enter the Underworld before they have the chance to be blessed. Their souls come to shore when they find someone to claim them." MK, leaning down to meet the baby: "Ohhh, a little floater baby. Hi!" Baby #1: (*barely old enough to smile. makes curious burbling sounds at MK and the other baby in his arms. Her hands have tiny claws, betraying her mixed demon heritage.*) Red Son, fixing on MK's baby: "What's the story with your little one?" MK: "Well now my story seems boring by comparison! Nezha has been helping train my astral projection powers, and he asked me to come along with him in spirit while he did his baby blessings. All was okay - I saw a lot of 100 day parties. But then Nezha got this look on his face, and we like swooped down to this riverbank where-" Baby in MK's arms: (*angry kitten-like sound*) MK, soothing her: "Yeah, baby, I'm telling them... She was all alone and... they tied her up in a bag. A bag, Red!" (*becoming distressed*) "Nezha was only able to sense her cus she just turned a month old and didn't have her Man Yue blessing. If we hadn't found her then-" Red Son, calming him: "Do not think about the buts, sunflower. She's with us now." MK, tear of relief: "Heh. Butts." Red Son, small laugh: "Puerile as ever... have you taken her to a doctor?" MK: "Even better! Your other grandma saw us after me and Nezha had her checked out by Chen Jiggu - you know the paediatric goddess? When I mentioned Haoyu wanted a sibling well... you know Xiwangmu." Red Son: "She shriek-roared, burst into tears, and started hugging you and the baby?" MK: "Yup. I could barely get a word out. She's already started calling her sÅ«nnĒ and demands we organise a proper Man Yue party for her." Red Son: "I hope she feels the same for the stray I acquired."
After tending to both babies, the pair notice that they have eerily similar features to one another... as if they were twins or close relatives. They try not to dwell too much on the possible reasons.
Within a few hours, news of babies Xuancao (named for a flower of remembrance; Poppy) & Yingsu (their little Tiger-Lily who's stripes have only just developed) gets out.
Haoyu arrives home after spending the day with Granddadsy and Gonggong Tang to see a pair of baby sisters in his old crib. He's overjoyed and accidentally wakes them in his delighted hooting (much to MK and Red's dismay).
Pigsy and Tang had been there to drop Haoyu off, and they quickly recognise the little cries that followed the hooting. The poor pig man nearly has a heart attack XD
Pigsy, pointing at the baby girls: "Since when!?" MK, holding one twin: "Haha - would you believe less than a few hours ago?" Tang, joking: "Wow. You two worked fast." Red Son, holding the other twin: "They were not made in that manner!" Pigsy & Tang: "Huh?" Haoyu, excitedly: "Oh! I know! LĒolao says babies float on the Underworld's river, and they get out when they meet their parents!" Tang: "Well, it's not exactly-" Red Son: "He's actually right in this case." Tang: "EH!?" MK, gesturing to the respective twin: "Underworld freebie. Above-world freebie!" Haoyu, smiling smugly: "Told you, Gonggong!!" Pigsy & Tang: (*both thinking hard*) Pigsy, shrugging: "Eh. I literally picked MK off the street. Finding one or two on the river ain't that odd. Now - let me meet my granddaughters." Both Babies: (*excitedly reach out tiny hands to inspect their grandadsy's face*)
MK and Red Son's phones are quickly blowing up with calls and messages asking "WTF!? Since when you two were pregnant?!" Wukong in particular calls worried out of his mind, asking if MK is ok and getting medical attention. Seems that a wire got crossed with Xiwangmu bragging about her new grandcub to who anyone who'd listen. XD
The bull grandparents, all three great-grandparents, and the extended Monkie Kids gang, happily accept the twin girls into their lives once the Spicynoodles couple finally manages to explain what happened.
Macaque: "You ordered one and got two. A great deal, in my opinion." MK, teasingly: "You're just saying that cus you managed to have twins too." Wukong, holding Rumble & Savage: "It's a fantastic deal either way!"
DBK and PIF in particular are overjoyed. They understand that a biological grandcalf is a huge risk to ask of the couple - so they happily accept the baby girls as if they were blood related anyway. PIF can finally spoil her girls with all the little dresses and accessories they could ever want. And DBK has a pair of tiny girls who have him wrapped around their little clawed fingers.
Any future spicynoodles babies likely have similar origin stories. At least one is a biologically-conceived child, though it's hard to tell when're all together and acting like they've always been together.
The whole family will fight whoever claims they aren't "real" children to them.

So I watched Ride the Cyclone over the weekend, and OOOOUUUUUUGGGGGHHHH I gotta yap about these characters. (spoiler alerts for people who haven't seen it)
I'll start with Ocean. I feel like almost everyone either knew someone like Ocean or was Ocean. She comes off as overly ambitious, goal oriented, and selfish. And she IS. She starts out as someone you're meant to hate. I mean, she literally sings a song about how she's better than everyone else in the group, even standing on top of them in a human pyramid to show her superiority. But I loved Ocean in the end. Yes, she pressured the others (especially Constance) to vote for her because she wanted to be brought back to life, but she ended up sacrificing a second chance of life in the end. Because Karnak changed the rules, she won the game. Ocean could've easily taken her chance at life, but she realized that she had something she wanted to go back to. They all did except for Jane Doe. As badly as she wanted to live, death taught her to be happy with what she had in the end. She would rather something over nothing.
Noel is an ICON. He's a romantic. In his fantasy, he's a French prostitute in the post-war era. Monique is a tortured woman. She is slapped, thrown to the ground, and her heart is played with until she ends up playing with hearts hearts herself. Noel romanticizes this life. It's shown that he's always had a flair for the dramatic, but Monique is a direct manifestation of Noel's tortured heart. I also LIVE for his friendship with Mischa. Noel could never really fit in, and I don't think he ever wanted to. He mentioned how his mother always wanted him to be more like the other kids, but he's too passionate for that and he knows it.
Mischa is another very interesting character, and not because he's from Ukraine. His adopted parents literally locked him in the basement and only provided basic necessities. It's also clear that he wanted to go back to his home in Ukraine. He understands why his mother had to send him away, but that doesn't mean he didn't miss his home. His desire to go back only got stronger when he was dating Talia long-distance. We only get glimpses into the character's lives, but Talia was Mischa's light. She was the love of his life. Mischa is a genuinely kind person despite his gangster persona, and though he misses Talia, singing her name over and over, is willing to not vote for himself.
Now THE swinging space age bachelor man, Ricky. I think death was the best thing for him. In death, he can speak. He can walk without crutches. All of the effects of his disease are reversed. I only say it's the best thing for him because he most likely thinks the same thing. After his song he takes his name out of consideration for voting. Part of that is because he can't vote for himself and believes that the others are more deserving of a second chance, but he also enjoys the freedom that death gave him. I love you Ricky Potts.
Jane Doe is the most mysterious character of the play and also my personal favorite. She has a lot of funny moments, but everything about her has an undertone of sadness. The others avoid her in the beginning. They don't really view her as a person (Ocean literally refers to her as a super freaky monster). She's a walking existential crisis. She has no memory of her life. Everything about her was gone once she lost her head. To me, the doll head she wears is a representation of what she's longing for. She wants a face of her own. She wants her identity. Until her song, the others avoid her because she's a reminder of what they could have lost in addition to their lives, plus she's creepy (having no head literally took away her balance, so her movements add to the horrifying nature of her character). After her song, the others realize just how much she lost. She knows how she died, but not who she was. The New Birthday Song is one of my favorite scenes in the show. It shows the others reaching out to her. They're trying to console her. Even Ricky lets her have the name Savanah (with the greenest eyes). We find out she's Penny Lamb in the end, but her name is really all we directly learn about her.
Constance is also a deep character. On the outside, she's the nice girl. She loves her friends, family, and has pride in her town. This stuff is true. But she also has a passionate side. She wants a lover and wanted to lose her virginity, which she ended up losing to a carnie. She tried to blend in, hiding her love and the things she was passionate about. She was made to feel ashamed for so much in her life. She was so self-conscious in life, to a point where a lot of viewers could find it relatable. It took death for her to accept that she loved her life, that she loved her family and her town. She misses all of the small things, but she's glad she had them in the first place.
Anyways this is what my brain is fixating on right now.

hey, itās buni (if you know who i am, you know who i am. i know neo does lol) (please donāt tag me if you know who i am. i donāt want to be defined by my past)
i have been a melanie martinez fan likeā¦ all my life, and i especially latched on to her music after i was sexually assaulted for the first time. i was around 7 or 8. it was by my cousin who decided it would be fun to grope and kiss me. at first i said okay, because he just asked me to go around the corner with him, then he kissed and groped me. i had no idea how to feel. thatās all i remember. i donāt remember the day, i donāt even remember my exact age.
with sexual assault, you should always believe the victim at first. but then you need to look at the perpetrator and talk to them, or look at their actions. this cousin, who i saw recently last year, was very touchy with me again, dispute me being double the age i was when the assault happened. (i am now 16)
i asked him to stop this time, and he got upset and proceeded to play basketball with our other cousins. it was horrifying to me to know that i went through that with him. i havenāt brought this up since it happened. itās been over 8 years.
now if youāre wondering why i bring this up, itās because of the situation with timothy. i do think she is lying. and if she isnāt, sheās exaggerating the events drastically.
let me say, itās so hard to prove sexual assault or rape in court. i have tried to go through the process, but even a few weeks later was too late. you need to have samples of the other persons dna, video or photographic evidence or something else.
but, with how she keeps telling the story over and over ā not to friends, but to a wide audience of people who really donāt even know her ā tells me sheās probably lying. she brings it up again when melanie is blowing up, selling a lot of product. she hasnāt directly interacted with her in 7 years, and only now itās important again?
i get it if she came in contact with melanie, saw her as an opener, or something similar ā but nothing like that never happened. she has said āi have been isolating myselfā
i saw my perpetrator in person, i was mere inches away from him, and i didnāt shout from the rooftops āhe groped me 8 years ago!ā but timothy is, mostly likely, MILES AND MILES away from melanie and SHES shouting from the rooftops.
yes, sexual assault is something that effects you for the rest of your life.
i try to bring it up with trump, who admitted he raped a woman, who was convicted. the woman who brought it up ā i believe her. because she has been trying to get it in court for YEARS.
timothy hasnāt done anything but post. and then, again, why would she dress up as her rapist the year after?
i, now, have an issue with dating people who look like my perpetrator. i could never dress up as them.
melanie has said ā {she} never said no to what we chose to do together.ā which indicated something DID happen between them, but not to the extent that timothy is claiming. melanie never said anything like āoh this bitch is lying about everything. iām gonna keep bringing it up over and overā and she isnāt doing the opposite either, completely ignoring it. she responded and said basically said something did happen between them.
i donāt think melanie is in the wrong. and itās not just because i like her music, itās because i, as another human, have been raped, sexually assaulted and abused MULTIPLE times in my life. it isnāt fun. it doesnāt go away, but it isnāt something you bring up every time the person gets popular.
thatās all i have to say. do i think either parties are fully innocent? no. do i think they both need to take accountability? yes, but i think melanie took hers. timothy needs to stop talking about it and take time herself to heal. like seriously, heal.
healing isnāt bringing up the topic over and over, itās learning from it, learning to move on ā like grief. accept it, and understand you may not have everything exactly correct.
thatās all i have to say :/
seriously, guys, we need to stop letting timothy bring this up to get her fame.
Wow thank you so much for sharing this Buni š„ŗ
I completely agree with you and support you all the way š¤

Guitarspear Rec List
A Guitarspear fic rec list for @qdkdraws ! I was just going to send them via ask, but I figured I might as well post them so others can enjoy as well. It is short because I am picky and the only category that I am judging by is if it brought me joy. And characterization, I guess, because I'm a stickler about that.
Onward!
Profane by Anonymous
After ending up in hell, Adam finds himself tangled up with the wrong crowd. Bad decisions is the word of the day. Note: This fic deals with heavy subject matter takes a while for the Guitarspear to happen, but it is so worth reading to that point. This series is my favorite thing in the Hazbin fandom. The third fic is actively ongoing!
In Which Hell Is Too Damn Long by Udbsken
If sinners can wake up in Heaven after they die, logic followsā¦ Adam opens his eyes in Hell Note: This one is not explicitly Guitarspear and Lute does not actually show up, but Adam does a lot of pining.
Sinner's Rut by MagnusThree
Lute is approached by Lucifer of all people with a proposition that she would have never expected to hear. But all she cares about is the prospect that Adam is alive, and whatever the state he is in, she is determined to be at his side once again. Note: This one is smut! It is going on the list anyway because it's smut with plot and the angst and fluff changed my brain chemisty.

Note: Yes, this one is in Russian. I enjoyed it enough that it's going on the list anyway. The basic plot is that Lute dies and becomes a demon instead of Adam. It is feelsy and hilarious, run it through a translator and be bountifully rewarded!
Twinkle, little star by Cracked_Empire
Hell is forever. This immutable truth was imprinted with pain in Adam's heart. If that heart even existed. But it did, for Adam could feel it stop. And then he opened his eyes and found himself more miserable than ever. Lute finds Adam in Hell. She is given a special assignment to find Anomaly in Hell. She goes down to Hell for Anomaly (she goes down for Adam, even though he now has real horns).
Adam -- First Man, Next to Fall by MagnusThree
The attack on the hotel had been a disaster, especially for the army of Heaven. Their leader, killed; their soldiers, butchered; their weakness, revealed. Lute and those remaining exorcists that had survived the massacre have only just made it home, but she isn't ready to let it go. Not when there's still someone's head to cleave from their body, and while Adam's blood was still fresh on bedrock. Maybe a little too fresh for someone that is supposed to be dead.
Aaaaand I'm going to do some self-promo and include my own fics, because writing them brought me joy and there's nothing to stop me from doing so.
Hypocrisy and Other Sinful Things
āWait!ā the thing cried in that familiar voice. āLute, fuckingā Wait! Itās me!ā Lute froze, the tip of her spear pressing lightly against the skin of the sinnerās throat. It stared up at her with wide, horrified, hopeful yellow eyes. Now that she actually looked, she couldnāt deny that she would have known them in any lifetime. The shape of his face was the same. The hair was the same. The voice was the same. Butā The creature before her had one more eye than it should have. It had horns growing out of its head ā the same shape that the ones on his helmet had been, but real in a way that no angelās were. Knives grew from the tips of its fingers, impossible to be covered even by the gloves it wore. The thing in front of her was undoubtedly a demon. Adam had been an angel. Adam was dead. - Or; Lute goes to hell during the next extermination seeking revenge. Instead, she gets the crisis of a lifetime.
The Great Overlord Pissing Contest
In which Adam ends up in hell and makes his psychological breakdown everyone's problem. Note: No Guitarspear yet beyond a whole lot of Adam pining, but things will heat up in the next fic.
Salvation on the Radio
āWhat the hell, Alastor! Why would you bring him here?ā Vaggie shouts. Alastor tilts his head to the side innocently. One ear twitches, but his smile never wavers. āWhy, our little meeting last week! Charlie did say that the hotel needs new guests, didnāt she?ā āGuests, not evil bastards who destroyed the hotel!ā āBut Adam here is seeking redemption! We do not discriminate between souls in need, do we?ā - Or; Alastor drags Adam to Charlie's doorstep like a cat that hasn't killed its prey yet. Things happen from there. Note: Again, Lute doesn't actually show up for a while. So far it's a whole lot of Alastor inflicting The Torments upon Adam and Charlie having PTSD. But we will get to the actual Guitarspear content! ~ Eventually! ~
Vile and Blasphemous
When Lute finds out that Adam is alive as a sinner and under the effects of an unknown curse, she goes to hell to find him. There, she is helped by an amnesiac sinner named Eve. The two hardly get along, but Lute will take whatever help she can get. Yet she can't quite shake the feeling that something is offā¦ Note: Because it's not supposed to be a secret and you can't see tags on tumblr, I'll just say it here. Eve is actually Adam. Lute has unknowingly recruited Adam to help her find Adam and gets to have a gay crisis whilst on her remarkably circular journey. I am having. So much fun with this fic.

DRIVERS LICENSE | trevor zegras
trevor zegras x fem! cooke! reader
a/n this is set in NTDP era and the reader is the daughter of Olivia Cooke who is an exchange student for the following school year and is staying with the Hughes family as her host family <3 and part will be posted sometime this week hopefully!
warnings: strong language and cheating
I got my driver's license last week
Just like we always talked about
"Trevor, shut up!" Y/n yelled as Trevor roared in laughter. He was attempting to teach her to drive.
"I'm sorry but I can't take you seriously with your accent." He smiled as she rolled her eyes at him.
"I do not have an accent." She said fixing her posture as looking forward.
"Yes, you do." Trevor leaned back in his seat with a smile still set on his face.
She rolled her eyes before continuing to drive forward and trying to park. Once she finished the two got out to examine her parking abilities.
"Oh my god. You cannot park to save your life." He giggled seeing the girl's horrifying parking job. He was crouched in front of the wheels.
"Shut up. I only know how to drive on the other side. Why doesn't America do that?" She said crossing her arms.
"Because Americans are idiots." He said looking up at her.
"But don't worry, you'll learn and then you can come visit me anytime." He said standing up and wrapping his arms around her.
'Cause you were so excited for me
To finally drive up to your house
She excitedly drove up to the Hughes lake house and honked her horn causing everyone to run out as Jim got out of the driver seat. Y/n got out of the passenger seat with a frown.
"I tried. I really did and I..." She paused, "Passed!"
Trevor was the first to tackle her in a hug and congratulate her. The Hughes brothers following before Ellen.
"Told you." Trevor whispered to her as they all went back to the house.
But today I drove through the suburbs
Cryin' 'cause you weren't around
"Y/n/n, please come out. It's time for dinner." Jack said leaning against the locked door.
Trevor and Y/n broke up. Why? No one knew and neither of them would say anything.
The Summer was over, it was now late Winter, and Jack was supposed to leave back to USA training. She knew she had to come out.
"Hey." He said as she opended the door. He sent her that Golden Hughes smile. She wrapped her arms around him and squeezed him tightly.
"Come on, Mom made your favorite." The went down the stairs.
She felt better after dinner. None of the Hughes brought up the breakup or asked her what happened. It was normal. Well, as normal as it gets for a Hughs family dinner. Luke and Jack kept launching pieces of their food at each other before Luke accidentally hit Y/n which led to them all launching pieces of their chicken at each other. Jim and Ellen would've stopped them but seeing the smile that had filled Y/n's face stopped them.
And you're probably with that blonde girl
Who always made me doubt
She's so much older than me
She's everything I'm insecure about
"Was I not enough?" Y/n aksed Luke over facetime. She had gone back home since her year was over. It was summer again.
"Don't say that." He said rolling over on his bed.
"But look at his instagram. He already has a new girl." She said with tears threatening to escape her eyes.
"And? You are perfect. If he doesn't see that his loss. Plus she's a bitch." He said as she furrowed her brows.
"How do you know?" She said sitting up from her bed. His eyes widened. He was not supposed to mention anything about knowing her.
"She just looks like it." He shrugged off.
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?
"He brought her to the lake house, didn't he?" She said tucking hair behind her ear.
"Yeah." He said looking down.
"It's fine." She mumbled.
"You can still come down here, you know." Luke said.
"It's only June. You can stay for the rest of the summer. Mom missed you, we all do." Luke was telling the truth. They all missed you.
"I miss Mama Hughes and all of you but I don't know. What if it's awkward?" She layed back on her bed.
"Then we can avoid them. Plus she barely leaves the guest room." Y/n's brows furrowed.
"She doesn't sleep with Trevor in his room?" She questioned. After Trevor asked her out, they always slept in his room together.
"Nope. She tried to go into your room but Trevor stopped her." He said as Y/n softly smiled.
"You guys didn't turn my room into another guest room?" She questioned.
"Of course not. We wanted to make it a game room but Mom wouldn't let us." He joked.
And all my friends are tired
Of hearing how much I miss you, but
I kinda feel sorry for them
'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do
"Please just think about coming for me. I miss my partner in crime." He said.
"I'll think about it." She said as her front door opened signaling that her mom was home.
"My Mum is home. I'll text you." She said before hanging up.
Maybe she should go back.

CW - talking about antisemitic depictions and about the house elves and the depiction of slavery in the books.
I'm having a frustrating day with a lot of physical pain, so I'm not the best at judging currently if I should be posting all of these thoughts. It's a response to multiple arguments by rude anons that I blocked (not for being rude, for being transphobic), but the arguments themselves stay on my mind and I just. Need this out. Ignore this, it will be all over the place, I'm basically venting. Hoping it'll be the last bit of HP criticism I post.
I'll tag it for you to block, as usual.
I've been asked what I expect of Rowling, since my criticism of the goblins included the books. She already wrote the books, they're printed and they're out there. She can't just change them, criticism does nothing because she has no path to correct her mistake.
First of all, with her transphobia - as far as I'm concerned she has blood on her hands at this point. The way she emboldens transphobia endangers lives and erodes queer rights. Anyone who contributes to the current push against trans people is complicit in trans genocide - and she made herself a symbol of that movement. Even if she did a 180 on her issues with Jewish stereotypes, she wouldn't redeem herself.
But she isn't the only one who wrote a story and then realized that her story has deep issues. What does it look like, if an author doesn't want to perpetuate those?
From what I know of Tolkien (and I know nothing LOTR or anything, just heard this from other Jewish creators who discussed this issue, treat this paragraph like I'm repeating a rumor) - Tolkien did stumble on an antisemitic depiction while writing his dwarves. Then he course-corrected by creating a more complex and nuanced picture of the society in his future works. Basically, he leaned into the idea of his dwarves as a Jewish allegory and made it a better and more respectful allegory. They have wonderful cultural details, like having foreign-language names used outside of their community - and names in their own native language that they call each other. Half of my family comes from France, and my mom was born there. She had a Hebrew name and a legal French name. That's extremely common among Jews in some areas of the world.
This response is what I would have expected if an author cares about being respectful of Jewish people. Acknowledge the issue, and try to do better.
But what if the issue was brought to your attention after you completely finished your story? In that case: "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was writing an antisemitic narrative with my depiction of this fantasy race." Support the voices criticizing your work, and apologize. Let it be an example of tropes to avoid, and encourage others to be careful of the same pitfalls.
What you don't do, is act horrified and say "Oh, how could you, I never intended to make the goblins an antisemitic allegory! Surely if I don't mean it, it can't be hurtful!"
Also, if you truly care, you don't then abuse the memory of the holocaust when you write spin-offs of your original story, including its imagery to support a bigoted villain's argument.
Marginalized people understand that not everyone knows what we do. The stereotypes and the harmful ideas that weaved themselves into popular culture are about us. We know that it's invisible to people who aren't the target, and as a result aren't forced to learn these things. To many people, it's just a trope they're used to seeing. Like villains have hooked noses - it's practically a shorthand for an evil character.
All the stories we tell are based in some measure on stories we heard. Narratives and tropes feed off each other between different pieces of media. It's easy to pull together a harmful narrative without realizing, when the tropes that make it up usually go together, and are so common they're everywhere. So we know a person who means no harm can create something really hurtful, without knowing it.
That's why we criticize media: we want you to see and be aware.
In addition to this, I've been accused multiple times of ignoring the fact that these books discuss bigotry and condemn it. I'm not ignoring it, I know they do - or they try to. But Rowling wrote a story against racism without understanding it and without interrogating it in herself. She only knew to condemn it when it's rude and violent and outright hateful. Not the foundations of it.
So, sure, say she didn't mean to write something harmful. What does she do when she learns she did? Nothing. And not just about the issue of the goblins - about everything. I detailed the problems with her depiction of lycanthropy, but she did the same thing with the house elves.
There's lore about creatures called brownies. They'll perform chores for you, but they'd rather not be seen while they do. If you try to pay them, they'll get offended. If you give them clothes, they'll leave. This is a very partial description, but you can see the inspiration here.
And then she turned them into a slave race. They're bound to their enslavers, possessing powerful magic but using it in their service, forced to punish themselves for disobedience and endure extreme abuse. Kreacher actively wishes to have his head put on display when he's too old and weak to be of use.
To show the reader the horrors of freedom for an elf, JKR turned poor Winky into a depressed drunk with no purpose in her life. Winky's story is horrifying.
Only Dobby takes care of Winky for that whole year. She never recovers during it. Then she's made to witness the interrogation of Barty Crouch Jr., which upsets her and causes her distress. As a result, she hears about Crouch's death through a toneless forced confession - and the interrogation continues around her. That same day, she watches the last member of the household she loved have his soul taken by a dementor, and then she's left alone with the body while Dumbledore argues with Fudge. Only after, he sends Madam Pomfrey to do what she can for Winky, and take her to the kitchens where Dobby will take care of her again.
And Rowling wrote all of this. Did she think this is an example that even compliant house elves suffer and get neglected, even by the sympathetic wizards? Was this a lesson that even those who don't seek freedom suffer and lack agency in this system?
No. Rowling turned it into a cautionary tale against freeing slaves. Unless they're "weird" like Dobby.
Maybe she didn't try to be racist, but this fits disturbingly well with the arguments against ending slavery in reality. That enslaved people will turn into aimless drunks. That they need to be enslaved to have purpose. That those who want freedom have something wrong with them.
And I know this was criticized. What was the response to the criticism? Nothing direct as far as I know, but after all of this - there was an article published on Pottermore to argue that Winky's story is a warning against freeing the elves. It was taken down fortunately, but after this article the arguments against freedom are no longer the opinion of characters within the world - it's a message given to us by real people.
She doubles down. Every time. People keep yelling that she had nothing to do with Hogwarts Legacy, she's not responsible for the way it builds on her original canon. Well, she seems to approve of it. It continues painting the same line with the same brush - just bolder.
She doesn't care about the racism, she doesn't care about antisemitism - she just wanted to use the nazis as her easy villains. She doesn't have the imagination for any other kind.
#hogwarts legacy#riki babbles#HP#JKR#I'm not Black so I hope I'm not overstepping#the only history my community has with slavery as far as I know is from Nazi labor camps#which are very a different thing to chattel slavery#and the latter is more similar to the situation the house elves are in

I'm going to make a new post so I can properly spoiler tag this. Dawntrail spoilers, specifically for Living Memory, from the viewpoint of your everyday death positive and death adjacent witch.
Okay, so.
The biggest defense I've been seeing is Living Memory is about grief, and it resonates with people who want just one more moment with someone they lost. And I know how that feels. I cried at Namikka and how much I wanted to talk to my mother in law again, just once.
And then stopped as soon as I realized how little weight was put on the entire section and how little respect they had for death and honouring the dead.
Here's the thing. It's horrifying what Sphene did. She made it so she's the only one who remembers her people, and the system put in place was never going to be sustainable. There just simply isn't enough aether to keep these memories alive, no matter how many reflections she kills. Eventually, the system will fail from lack of aether.
And here's what I realized: Sphene's actions have brought about a true death, and the fact we're aiding it without realizing how many people we fully killed.
Imagine this is real. You just talked to your loved one and felt closure. But you still need to get to Sphene, since her programming means she's going to destroy everything to keep her people safe. So you go shut down the terminal in the area.
You now have permanently deleted people you don't know ever existed.
This is insulting to who they were, and to any closure anyone else would have had. You are the only one you allowed to have that closure, and gave people whose stories cannot be told because of the system a true death.
And you have Cahcuia smiling at you the entire time and the weight of all the people we murdered in droves is brushed aside.
Yes, we murdered them, and we can never count how many it was.
We took the choice out of everyone's hands and said it was okay because we got closure, and fuck you I got mine. I got my closure, so fuck anyone else who wants it, anyone whose memory was taken but would have met them in Living Memory and had the closure we got. You can't have it.
And we are denied the weight of that.
True death for me is when someone's story can never be told again. They are forgotten to time.
Sphene set it up that this true death was always going to happen because the aether required is unsustainable.
We forced it to stop Sphene.
But we aren't given the weight of our actions and how we had to murder an untold and uncountable amount of people to save everything.
Sphene is making mockery out of death. We help her in that, out of necessity, but we still help that.
And the defense for this is "fuck you I got mine."

PROPAGANDA
Mahiru Propaganda
"They got unfairly voted guilty in the first round and keeps getting blamed She never meant to hurt anyone and the only reason she did was cause she couldnāt read social ques"
"Mahiru Shiina is the most traditionally feminine character in Milgram, and sheās very in love with the idea of love. That makes her an easy fandom target. In Milgram, we are introduced to ten murderers. It quickly becomes apparent that not all of these murders are conventional. By the time we are introduced to Mahiru, we already know most of these unconventional murderers. Mahiruās first music video depicts her going on various dates with her boyfriend, even though he is not shown in the frame. At the end of the video, Mahiru wakes up, turns to the camera, and has a horrified expression. Whatever happened, she didnāt want it to happen. And then a lot of the fandom accused her of being a stalker. Was that what got her a 55% guilty/unforgiven vote? I donāt know. I wasnāt there. But she heard what the fandom said. She heard these voices saying she couldnāt be forgiven. Saying that she was a stalker or that she didnāt really love her boyfriend, even though that wasnāt true. She was beaten to near-death by Kotoko, a vigilante who was forgiven by 67%. Fuuta, who also sustained serious injuries from Kotoko, calls out the audience surrogate, saying what we did with our verdicts would have made us the same as him if Mahiru had died. And yet Mahiru doesnāt blame either us or Kotoko. Mahiruās second music video shows that she was indeed in a proper relationship with her boyfriend. She smothered him with her love. The video slowly revealed the toxicity in their relationship. She asked why she canāt do anything right. The fandom perception was better in that she was safely voted innocent/forgiven. Still, there are issues. Some infantilize her or say that sheās delusional. Yes, she had a sheltered upbringing and has difficulties reading social cues, but that doesnāt take away her agency. On the flip side, some have theorized that she kidnapped her boyfriend and wasnāt in a proper relationship with him. (Not sure what to say about that, but this is a series about sympathetic murderers.)"
Kikyo Propaganda
"Picture this: the love of your life betrays you and causes your death, then you're brought back to life later against your will and your lover is with your reincarnation. Anyone would feel bitter! She tries her best to keep living her half life and helping people. She's hated just because she's not the main character and gets in the way of the show's OTP."
"Kikyo was such an interesting character. She was murdered by the villain, who tricked both her and her love interest into thinking the other had betrayed them, brought back to life against her will only to find that fifty years had passed, the world had moved on without her, her baby sister was now an old woman, and she'd been condemned to an awful half-life in an unfeeling clay body where she was stuck in her worst moments and basically a vengeful spirit, but she eventually managed to move past it, gave up her one chance at getting revenge on her murderer to save the life of a child, and achieved some measure of inner peace before she died for good. But, she also has the misfortune of being the first love of the male lead, so of course the only thing anyone seems to care about is how she supposedly did him dirty and wasn't good enough for him. The whole fandom is chock full of meta posts about how she didn't trust Inuyasha enough and should have known he'd NEVER betray her like that. Meanwhile, Inuyasha fell for it just as easily when the villain framed HER for attacking HIM, but nobody ever tries to claim that HE didn't trust HER enough. (For further context, when she thought he'd betrayed her, she retaliated by pinning him to a tree and putting him in an enchanted sleep. He retaliated by destroying her village.) In at least 90% of the fanfics that she appears in at all, she's either the Bad Girlfriend or the Evil Ex, who either previously or is currently abusing the hero, or cheating on him, or trying to coerce him into turning human, or dating him for years only to break up with him by telling him he disgusts her because of his demon blood (huh???), none of which she did in the actual canon, solely so the preferred love interest can swoop in and kiss it all better. People will claim they're just making valid criticisms of her actions (which, to be fair, aren't always great), or saying she didn't properly earn her redemption (which is actually pretty standard for a shounen series) because she didn't apologize enough, but them multiple male characters who did far worse than she did somehow miraculously managed to escape the constant criticisms that she's subjected to, this despite having a so-called redemption that's literally just "He stopped eating people because he wanted to get into the heroine's pants", and remain very popular characters both in their own right and as alternate ships for the female lead. The double standards are so glaringly obvious, yet people will bend over backwards and jump through mental hoops that would give a gold-medal Olympics gymnast pause to insist that they're being completely objective and fair and that this isn't just about trying to score points in a ship war or holding female characters to completely different standards from male characters."

So...
Is Night at the Museum 4: Kahmunrah Rises Again being classed as cannon by people, or...?
Besides the insulting lack of Jedtavius, (and lack of the ongoing gag ofĀ āsmall men do something thatās horrifying to them, yet nothing to us (i.e. the car tire, the squirrel, and the vent), this isnāt what the post is about... itās about the inconsistencies.
Like, yeah sure there were a few in the original three, but they werenāt show stopping, or ruining the magic, or even confusing things, such as; Cecil Fredrickās implying that he only found out about the magic of the tablet when he took the job as a Night Guard, and then enjoyed the magic. But, in the third movie itās as if he knew ALL ALONG. No mention of Rebecca in the second movie, none of theĀ āAmelia Earhart Look-Alikeā in the third. Or,Ā Kahmunrah being wax rather than being a mummy. But, I can overlook that...
HOWEVER!
I will not overlook the magnitude in NATM 4.
Letās talkĀ inconsistencies.
There was no Joan of Arc in the original 3. Yes, I understand WHY they did this, but still, it was never even mentioned there was an exhibit dedicated to her. (Did they get a section for her between films?)
There was a severe lack of Teddy/Sacagawea, as if it was forgotten. (As there was of Jedtavius, but I can see why they cut that out.)
Larry has meant to have moved on, went to college, got a degree, and gone into teaching, yet heās back at the museum??? Working as a night guard??? NATM 3 is about moving on, and letting go, but... now heās back...
Where was Don??? Yāknow? Ericaās boyfriend??? Don is never really brought up again in the next two films after the first, but they were dating, enough that Nicky sorta looked up to him and Erica trusted him to pick up Nicky. Did they break up, and it was never mentioned???? Ever...
And thatās another thing, Nickyās meant to be in college at this point. To reiterate, that was the point of the third film, moving on and becoming better. Remember, one of the conflicts was Nicky had no idea what he wanted to do, he wanted to go DJ and Larry wanted him to go to college. He should not in High School. Not to mention, Nicky was flirting with that girl in the third movie at the very beginning, and didnāt appear to have a girlfriend, and the way NATM 4 implies that heās TOTALLY gone for Mia, it would seem that they would be aĀ āpower coupleā.
ANOTHER THING! Dr. McPhee is let on in the secret at the end of NATM 3. He is made aware that everything in the museum comes to life at night, and he sees it, and heās amazed, he even finds it rather funny. Yet in NATM 4, he has no idea they come to life, and Nicky is trying to usher him out the door. And, McPhee seems to hate Nicky and Larry, despite in the end rather liking Larry and being thankful to him for taking the fall for the entire situation with the exhibits attacking.
ALSO, where is Ahkmenrah??? Did he just... vanish? Does he no longer exist??? Did he go back to England???
Which is also ANOTHER point. The reason at the end of NATM 3 everything came to life, was because it is a moving exhibit and was visiting New York. It doesnāt stay in one place for a long time, so it seems to have moved on from The Museum of Natural History, so... why does The Museum of Natural History STILL have the tablet? It should have gone with Ahkmenrah and the English Exhibit, and if it didnāt, Dr. McPhee would have probably been arrested. And, thatās what the exhibits wanted in NATM 3, for Ahkmenrah to have the tablet, and to be with his family.
Maybe the moving exhibit is still there? If so, what about Tilly??? She should still be there too, and I donāt think she would leave Laa, nor would Laa leave Tilly again. And if they did stay, Tilly would have been a good Night Guard rather than Nicky. And if theyāre still there, where is Lancelot??? Where isĀ Merenkahre andĀ Shepseheret??? Where is Trixie???Ā (Therefore, itās my belief that the moving exhibit is no longer there.)
Not finished yet! Another thing to note is...Ā Kahmunrah is meant to be dead. Remember, he was pushed into the Afterlife through the Gate to the Underworld, right? Well, why and how is he back?Ā āBut OP, itās another wax figureā I can hear some of you yelling; then why does he know what happened? If itās a different wax figure, he shouldnāt know. Remember in NATM 2, when Larry found a bust of Teddy and Teddy had no idea who Larry was??? I do! So... itās CLEARLY meant to be the sameĀ Kahmunrah.
Maybe it takes place between NATM 2 and 3??? But, it canāt! Because, Laa is there, and Laa was only introduced at the beginning of NATM 3. If Laa wasnāt there, I would have rather easily been able to sayĀ āit takes place between NATM 2 and 3ā³, but because he is, it means itās MEANT to be after 4.
Maybe it takes place DAYS after the end of NATM 3??? Again, Larry and Nicky shouldnāt be there, the English Exhibits and Tilly should still be there, McPhee should know whatās going on, andĀ Kahmunrah still shouldnāt remember/should not be alive and Akhmenrah should have been there.
Thereās probably more, such as posters and pictures shouldnāt be moving in the Museum of Natural History, which is why Larry found the Smithsonian so cool, because the pictures moved unlike theirs, and they shouldnāt be used as portals as it was NEVER referenced before.
Also, the fact Joan had powers and Seth was a real God which should be impossible, given the fact everything else in the museumās donāt work like that. Like sure, things like volcanoes blowing up is a thing, but like... besides things directly tied to the Tablet, things so as magic, permanent damage and stuff isnāt real.
Joan had hallucinations and more than likely a mental illness, so to see it used like THAT was just so not good. (A way with words I know) Yes, she had visions and later they came true, but the way it was used was wrong. As if what Joan saw was fact, rather than Joan having a mental illness, and trying to fulfill it. (There is nothing wrong with having mental health issues, or anything like that. I just believe the way they used her mental health and her hallucinations was wrong.)
And Seth... while I can see something like this being done, it was the fact it was done with laser eyes, like... THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN! The tablet doesnāt seem to let that sort of thing happen. (But, then again actually; given that Seth is more tied to the tablet I think it could. I think my main issue with that is; the laser eyes. I think it angered me more than I thought it did.)
So, yeah take this rant... I clearly didnāt like NATM 4... oops

"In Dreams" - Post-Trespasser Fix-It fic (Complete, Explicit)
Sheās tired. Three years and she hasnāt seen her family. Three years of carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. Three years that has hardened her and brought her more joy and more pain than she ever could have imagined.
She wants toĀ rest. But she will never have that, not so long as the Inquisition remains.
You too know the burden of a title that all but replaces your name.
Part of her wonders if she can ever really stop being the Inquisitor. Would Orlais and Fereldan leave her be with the Inquisition gone? Would the world leave her be? Would the Herald of Andraste beĀ allowedĀ to return to the untamed forest and the barbaric life of her clan? Would she ever be free to live her life to her choosing?
Sheās half tempted to throw the book at the counsel and let them fight amongst themselves until they figure it out. What difference does it make for her anyway?
But she hears their voices as she nears the door.
āWe stand on the brink of war with the Qunari!ā
āYes, because this Solas provoked them!ā
Anger flares within her. She will not let the Inquisition stand as an army against Solas. Not with itās corruption. Neither Ferelden nor Orlais nor Solasā own spies will have the Inquisition. Not with people so willing to assign blame, who never knew him, who would be more interested in cutting him down than attempting to stay his hand.Ā She'll destroy the organization before she gives any of these ignorant fools the tools to harm him.
The guards on either side of the doors open them for her, and she marches into the room. Josephine stares at her with wide eyes, horrified sheās out of bed.
āInquisitorā¦ā
She averts her gaze from Josephine and raises the Divineās rit for all to see. She declares the Inquisition disbanded, throws the book at the counselās feet, and marches out.
Something lifts from her as she passes through the hallās doors. There is no longer a powerful organization for her to stand as figurehead. Any obligation to put on a face for ceremony or pretense vanishes, and she nearly crumples from the release of it. She leans against the wall for support, hot tears rolling down her face.
Ar lasa mala revas.

I am glad that you continue your activities on the Internet. I respect you for your courage. It's terrible that people think it's acceptable to wish someone dead for words on the Internet that don't harm anyone. people who do this behave like children. Please take care of yourself
On my own, I would also like to note that it is strange for me to see Gato's accusations of racism due to the fact that she gave feedback to artists who depicted characters with lighter skin color than they should be. I'm white, so I can't say if the representatives of the POC consider this to be racism, but personally it looks strange and enough from my sideā¦ Exaggerated. this is not something that should cause people to be negative, it's just a feedback. it just looks like another "argument" and an attempt to justify hatred towards a person. Yes, it can be frustrating, but that doesn't make Gato a racist, as it seems to me. it is strange that the claims in this case are made to Gato, but not to the artists. you can correct me, because, again, I may be wrong. it seems to me that the situation could be different if people just talked to each other with words through their mouths, and did not accumulate resentment and did not dump it all on public display. this is sad, considering that the situation itself is an absurdity, brought to disgusting proportions by misunderstanding between people. I am horrified by the culture of cancellation over nothing. to be honest, because of this, I'm afraid to post something online, because I can't predict what kind of harmless actions I think I might be dubbed a racist, Nazi or something like that and cancel, although I despise harming anyone and try to express myself as much as possible correct as far as possible. I am glad that apologies have been made and accepted, but all the lost content cannot be restored. I hope that at least Gato is OK, this is the most important thing
sorry if some of the words sound strange or meaningless, I don't know English well and use a translator
dont apologise for broken english, i aint putting to much effort in it eitherš
as for what you said yeah i totally agree since.. like in the last hours i just couldnt stop about this yk. why only gato is being so hated but not the people around her that did the messed up shit. (one of them even apologizing so yea). or people going around and saying that her diversity its almost nonexistent (thing i tried to prove wrong with my post about the poc characters in her work)
just like another user said, she could've chosen to not give them and ethnicity because people would acuse her of portraying that group as bad or whatever.
but oh well.. gotta hope everything will end on a positive note "3
also please, remember that there will always be people that will disagree with your opinion/points of view. if they start getting aggressive, block them and take a moment to relax. people could be such gross living being so yeah.. remember to take care of yourself :3
stay safe and drink plenty of waterš«¶

X-Files Collector's Edition: MOTW but Rinse and Repeat
MOTWs were among the best of The X-Files episodes... but what if those monsters had follow up episodes?
Honorable mention: @paperheartsarts/Paper_hearts_and_homemade_arts's series If You Will Let Me (which is still on-going) which follows Padgett's demon pursuing Scully even after death. Horrifying hallucinations and real, physical danger nearly claim her and Mulder's lives.
Loose chronological order below~
Pattie's It and Them
""Mulder, you're not going to believe this... "
"I believe in all kinds of things, Scully." He looked at his watch. "Isn't it past your bed time?"
"Jane Doe appears to have become John Doe." She kept her eyes on the infant and waited for her partner's reply. "Remember the Amish outside of Steveston?"
"What?" Mulder sat up. Now HE was fully awake.""
Mulder and Scully do their best to aid an ex-Kindred cult member's baby that she leaves on Scully's doorstep.
Offspring
""The doctor ushered Mulder and Scully into a small office where he had a desk. "I know. You must think this is just something in the lake water, or regular hepatitis. But this kid puked up what looks to be a flatworm."
"A fluke." Mulder nodded to Scully.
"Yes, a fluke. Last month, we removed one from a woman's liver, and it wasn't a typical fluke. We embalmed it until we could find someone to identify it. Then, when Kevin Johnson was brought here yesterday, we had our second fluke. It's in an aquarium in the same lab. as the one we embalmed.""
S4: Flukeman-infested lake.
Genetic Appetite
""Scully was adamant. "We are staying." She knew she wasn't going to have a good night's sleep when Mulder started thinking aloud in the lobby of the apartment building.
"You don't suppose he... "
Scully's patience was wearing thin. "What? Don't suppose he what?"
"Mated. Well, it's not that impossible to believe, Scully. All beings have the urge to procreate. Maybe he could get through a date without eating.""
Liver extractions and bodies are piling up... but Tooms is dead. Mulder and Scully track down an unexpected source.
EllieL/Ellie's Rendering Judgment of Chthonic Gods
""Atropos has cut the line. You saw it happen. Whatever you may see that she has to do in the future, the decision was made that she shall not continue. It cannot be undone, not by my will nor my husband's."
"You could give her a choice. She's coming here unguided, and has dipped her hand in the river and tasted it. That must change matters."
"That--that does change matters, somewhat. She was a good woman in life, and I am not unsympathetic to her or what you see of her future. And she still has a choice where to drink. Let her make that choice, and perhaps she'll make the decision for us.""
Scully's nurse in One Breath bargained indirectly with her son-in-law, Death, for her patient's life. Invisible deals are struck, allowing Scully both to live and to see her father one last time.
JET/Jesemie's Evil Twin/eviljesemie's Things That Lie Outside
""He must have been the one to apologize but has no idea what he really said. After the family leaves, he realizes her presence behind him. Turning, he catches an expression on her face so protective of him he almost steps back. She straightens up, goes to grab their files off the internal audit conference table.
It might not have been there at all, that look. Probably not. Almost 100% guaranteed it was not.
He misses his sister at this moment, he realizes, because in every alternate world he's imagined, every place Samantha is alive and well and his sister, she has grown up to be the kind of person he would tell about that look, and he might let something into his voice that she would suspect, and it would be a secret between them.""
Post Paper Hearts Scully finds the last girl, setting her partner free from this last horrific hold.
Justin Glasser's (xphilefic) Kevin
""Miss Scully, this is Nathan, Kevin's brother. I talked to you today and--Miss Scully, I don't know if this is, like, your jurisdiction or what, but if there's anything you can do--he's gone, and we can't--I don't think we can find him. He said he was afraid of the moloch and I didn't believe him . . . Miss Scully, please." Click. The machine whirred in rewind, and shut off, light glowing placidly.
"You don't know what that is?" she asked.
Mulder shrugged. "Can't know everything, I guess.""
S5? Scully is called two years later when Kevin Kryder goes missing. While she and Mulder locate Kevin, his new brother is taken as well... and killed.
msk's (Ao3), bcfanās, maybe_amanda/MaybeAmanda's (Site, LiveJournal), Tesla's (XLibris), Amy's, Kmom's, Lucy Marchmont's
Jabberwocky
""Sybil, have you go got a crucifix, a cross, an article or symbol of your faith on or about your person? Necklace, earrings, scapular, sacred vestments of any sort? Bottle of holy water, maybe?..."
Sybil shook her head. "I have another pair of duck earrings in my purse. How's that?"
"Probably not enough."
"Mulder," Scully said, her voice sounding harsh even to her own ears, "I'm giving you three seconds to start making some sense. One, two-"
"The glyphs," he said. "It's like a welcome mat. Only instead of saying *Welcome,* or *The Addams Family,* this is more like, *Vlad lives here. Trespassers will be eaten*.""
S6 (or S7) Mulder takes Scully back to Texas for another undead case, courtesy of Frohike. Between her jealousy of a flirty, bubbly redhead, pique at Mulder's constant Sheriff Hartwell teasing, enjoyment at an incredibly fancy hotel her partner booked specifically for her, and fear of said flirty redhead's two horrific insurance brother-bosses, Scully is torn between annoyance and affection. She is, however, able to pull it together just in time for the crazy finale involving her partner, a vampire feast auction, and a law enforcement bust led by the vampire Sheriff himself.
Maria Nicoleās
Stand by the Window
""Once they had tracked him down, only his threatened cascade of disclosure kept them at a distance, growling and snapping.
A few years ago he might have fought them, might have tried to disappear for good, or else oust Strughold. Now he was simply tired of it all.
And so he was finally forced to live the life he had pretended to have all along.""
The Well-Manicured Man survived FTF's car bomb, fending off his compatriots with threats of exposure. Plunging himself into caged retirement, he awaits the inevitable, befriending his spy-housekeeper leading up to the events of One Son.
Bridge
""So what do you want to call them? Little bug-boys?"
"Bug-ees. Buggers. The deadened. The ungrateful dead. Deadheads. Hey, yeah...deadheads."
She looked like she was struggling to suppress the smile, but it came out anyway. "All right, so we have the disappearance of these deadheads from the previous case. We have two people dead now, with some sort of puncture wound in the back of their neck. Have you considered that you were hallucinating?"
"I thought you just said you believed--" She shook her head. "That Pincus injected those people, without a doubt. But what if...you've been assuming that he's a large insect-like creature who can trick others into believing he's human. What if it's the other way around? What if he's a human who can trick others into believing he's a monster?""
Field Trip Mulder and Scully ditch their quarantine early, experiencing unexpectedly peaceful and soul-searching mind-melds while investigating a case very like Folie a Deux. The depths of Scully's plumbed from the depths of an ocean, Pincus and snake venom, and rescuing Mulder from himself-- this is a gorgeous read: more exploratorily honest than neck-stiffeningly intense.
Wylfcynne's Imagine
""He headed for the door, then hesitantly turned. "Agent Scully?"
She turned, surprised by his tone. "Yes?"
"You want to know why the X Files and the two of you have been shut down so hard?"
She stared at him. "We know why."
"Because you terrify them, Scully, with your courage, your integrity and your uncompromising principles. You terrify me and I'm on your side. Imagine how they feel.""
Post S.R. 819 Mulder and Scully are captured by a cult. He's infected with the black oil while Scully frees herself enough to call in Skinner and the cavalry. She then must save her partner, ruthlessly torturing the alien virus in his body to death. Everyone else stands in awe.
Joann Humby's The Pattern
""She kept her voice professionally mild even when she finally changed the subject. "Skinner said that Diana Fowley worked for Patterson."
He let his hand rest on her shoulder, admiring her courage. "I effectively introduced them. He liked her." He ignored the way that Scully flinched, and was grateful that she bit down her instinctive response to his remark. Talking was hard.... "After the Props case, he helped her to get funding for her research. In San Francisco," he added, not quite disguising the amusement in his voice. If Scully could be courageous then so could he. "About as far away from me as he could manage."
"But you still left the ISU?"
"Reggie was willing to take me off Patterson's hands. He wasn't in a position to say no."
"And you and Diana?"
"It suited us. A couple of thousand miles apart.""
Post Amor Fati Mulder's history with Monty Propps becomes relevant again. He slowly unravels the current mystery whilst reflecting on his past with Diana and his possible future with Scully, IVF, and angels. (There are even sections from Diana's POV during her early relationship which delves into her assignment to California and her recruitment parallel to Mulder's discovery of the X-Files.)
aka Jake/Ā aka_JakeĀ ās (Gossamer) Reprise
""She turned to face him, laundry abandoned. āI donāt have to tell you, we saw Eugene Tooms chopped into a million pieces by an escalator.ā
āI noticed that.ā
āCity Square thoroughly cleaned the area before the shopping mall reopened. They sent us their bill.ā
āMaybe they missed a spot.ā
āAnd what, Tooms grew a new body from a finger or a pinky toe?ā
Mulder tapped the end of his nose.
āNo.ā She shook her head. āItās impossible.""
Post S11 Mulder and Scully battle another Eugene Tooms-like case... in fact, it is Tooms, who just won't die.
Gefangener (txt)
""Opponents of the death penalty often cite that capital punishment is not a deterrent to murder, those executed are usually poor, and many innocent people have been wrongly sentenced to death.
Tell it to someone who cares.
...Special Agent Fox Mulder has not seen Gerry Schnauz since testifying at his trial. He isn't sympathetic to the fact that Schnauz is a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic, who, according to his court-appointed lawyer, belongs in Melvoin Psychiatric Hospital, not a maximum security prison.
Fox Mulder wishes Gerry Schnauz had committed his crimes in one of the forty states that gas, electrocute or inject its serial killers.""
AU-- Post Unruhe Mulder darkly reflects on Schnauz not getting the death penalty while Scully lies forever in bed, her mind ruined.
@admiralty-xfd/admiralty's Novam Domum
""Seventeen year old Daisy Peacock stepped on the gas but wasnāt certain where she was headed. The radio blasted Del Shannon and she rolled her window down. The smell inside the car was awful.
...Edmund Peacock sat stoic in the front seat, staring straight ahead, not saying anything. He never said anything. And her mother laid in back, blood slick down her thighs, screaming not out of pain but of rage. The noise was akin to the whinnying of a horse, or cattle being zapped. All she wanted was to make the sound stop the way Father would when the babies came out all wrong.Ā
Waiting was her only option. Mother wasnāt long for this world, anyway.""Ā
Post S11 Mulder and Scully were settling into their new lives as expecting parents when another family from their blast blows in, searching for their own place to call Home.
AUsĀ
Adam Webb's Pyre
""As the casket stopped in front of him while loading documentation was double checked. Mulder saw L'Ively holding up his palm, displaying that it was empty in the manner of a theatrical magician. The next instant a tiny fluttering orange fire blossomed from his extended index finger. In the space of a second its intensity quadrupled, flaring into a pencil-thin lance of white hot flame. Coming from the casket a high-pitched beeping sound filled the air, indicating that the rise in temperature had been registered by in-built sensors. L'Ively appeared unconcerned, either with the fact that his pyrokinetic display had tripped the alarm or that his skin was being consumed. Mulder had a fleeting vision of the wiry little Englishman's body repairing itself and staggering out of the burning wreckage of a downed aircraft. It was a fact stranger than fiction that Lively had already survived three deaths. But all of those had been death by fire, Mulder reminded himself, falling from a great height would prove as fatal to L'Ively as it would to anyone else. Grinning like a hob-goblin L'Ively used the residue of his own melting flesh to draw a large greasy brown heart shape onto the glass, and through it blew a kiss to Scully. Then folding his blackened finger into his palm he abruptly banished the fire.""
Post Paper Clip Cecil L'Ively cut a deal with the government-- because, of course-- and puts Scully in a coma. Mulder and Phoebe team up to take him down, healing a few old wounds and earning a bit of redemption.
Thalia D'Muse's Nowhere to Hide
""The cabin is set back in the woods, two miles from the nearest dwelling. It is perfect. Your screams will be for my ears only. A sweet symphony with me as the sole audience. I shudder in anticipation as I remember your voice: a deep, sensuous alto, caressing my ears like a sultry torch song. I want to hear that voice again so badly. I want to hear that silky-smooth voice speak my name. I want to hear it scream, cry, beg for mercy. These are the sounds that will be music to my ears.
Sleep now, my Dana. We will be there soon.""
Alternating between the madness of Pfaster and the desperation of Mulder, this post Irresistible fic toys with an AU: if Donnie Pfaster were able to break free and recapture his last victim.
@slippinmickeys/Slippin' Mickeys's (Ao3) Unnamed (Ao3)
""Mulder felt like heād been punched in the solar plexus.
āHe killed her,ā he said, deflating.
Heād been expecting a āwe donāt know that yetā or a āwithout a body, thereās still hope, Mulder.ā Instead, she said: āAnd you killed him.ā Something in the way she held her shoulders made him think she wasnāt sorry for it.""
Ā Post Paper Hearts Mulder finds a photograph of Samantha that matches the last cloth heart; but his extreme sorrow is immediately channeled into determination to save Scully from her cancer.
Erin M. BlairāsĀ (Ao3) A Little Twist of Three
""Hold that thought," Scully replied, as carefully put down little Dana, and she opened the door. It was Kristen Kilar, one of Melissa's New Age friends.""
S1 deviated with Mulder and Scully becoming parents and a family. When S2 Duane Barry rolls around, it's Melissa Scully who is taken instead. Kristen Kilar is one of Missy's friends.
Kim Berglund's Blood Dimmed Tide
""Morbidly he reached in and slid out the state trooper's photo that had tormented him for many sleepless nights. Scully gagged and tied, her eyes wide with fear.
He dropped it back into the folder and closed his eyes.
It had been his darkest night. Until now.
He thought he could hear the beating of wings. La gargouille waiting impatiently for death.
Opening his eyes, Mulder let go of the file and reached for the one behind it.
Kristen Kilar, The Trinity Killers.""
Post Grotesque Scully is withdrawing from Mulder, thinking she's failed to help her partner-- giving up. Kristen arrives, creating more friction; and Mulder, sick of it all, pulls out his gun.
bellefleur/bellefleur1013's Triple Returns
""Kristen herself had not actually committed the murders the first time, but she had led her unholy trinity to each of the victims, and she alone as an observer knew the intimate details of each victim and crime scene. The identical nature of the crimes could only mean one thing--Kristen was reconstructing the path that had first brought them together. By duplicating the case that Mulder had solved, she was sure to attract his attention and draw him into it again.""
It's S7: Kristen Kilar is back; and Scully has to pry open Mulder about his past with her and save him from being turned into a vampire.
J. C. Sun's Leave
""Cold, very cold, yet lovely, this woman.
This coldness, this is what he lacks.
This coldness, it makes him better.
"Very pretty. You have good taste."
He starts.
He casts a nervous glance towards his gun. I laugh, and he relaxes.
"You are happy?" I say.
His mouth twitches, and I read that he is happy, as happy as he can ever be.""
Vampire Kristen lived, running across Mulder's path years later. She sees Scully, his peace, and-- finally-- her own reflection.
Thanks for reading~
Enjoy!
