#They shouldn't be treated as pests

[catsnuggler]

Coyotes deserve more respect, imo. Maybe it's just all the stories I've been reading recently, or maybe it's how all canines originated from this continent, but idk, they just deserve more respect. They're not invaders; this land belongs to them

[the-moogle-of-your-nightmares]

the thing about people who use 'subjective morality' as a shield against being held accountable is like, cool, you can believe whatever you want about whether you should get to cut in line for ice cream. no one is obligated to give you the ice cream on that basis, nor are they obligated to not kick you out of line for being an asshole. stand by your beliefs you fucking pussy.

Flirting With Them. (POTA Headcanons, Caesar, Noa, Blue Eyes)

Reference: This Imagine

As much as Caesar is most accustomed to human culture, he's very oblivious when it comes to the romantic aspect. (I mean be fr, Cornelia had to shoot her shot multiple times for him to notice) so when you openly flirt with him, with prolonged eye contact and a sultry tone of voice, he just figures that's just your personality and he shouldn't read too much into it.

This goes on for a long period of time and you sort of give up since your efforts are in no way awarded (felt like punishment with how bruised your ego is.) Caesar automatically notices the lack of batting your eyelashes at him and the seductive lilt in your voice has vanished instead you smile politely, you seem more reserved around him now.

He gives it time hoping that you'll resume your prior behavior but you don't so he'll have to take matters into his own hands, he begins talking to you in a sensual tone, his baritone inflect sending a shiver down your spine while refusing to break eye contact. It clicks for you right away.

"Are you flirting with me?" He leans back a flicker of confusion on his face,"flirting?" Your sultry tone reappears as you lean towards him."Do you like me?" He's stiff as a board looking away in an opposite direction, a huff exuding from him not willing to give an answer.

You flirt playfully with Noa, now you couldn't possibly blame him for being oblivious to your flirting, he just notches your behavior as friendship but to help on your case, your teasing was bordering dalliance and your touches felt more like a caress, primarily directed towards his arms or the tops of his shoulders.

He takes your advances in stride, treating you as he would treat his own friends and only sometimes would you contemplate if you should be more forward but you go against it deciding friendship should be enough for if he isn't receptive of your affections so you stop (it was a shame, he's such a stud after all pfftt)

Yeah, Noa catches on to that fairly quickly, he notices your no longer teasing him in that tone of voice instead the note is reminiscent to how Soona speaks to him, sisterly, also why aren't touching him? (he'll basically have an internal temper tantrum obsessing over that).

So there's only one thing to do, he'll have to just act that way towards you, lightly grazing you within your personal space and grabbing at your hair to direct your attention towards him and of course, tease you with that undertone unknowingly that he's trying to woo you and it's so unlike him that it clicks almost instantaneous of what he's trying to to do and your willing to give him what he wants.

"ooh, is there something you want to tell me, Noa?" The seductive lilt in your voice startles him "uh-uuuhh" he stampers out instinctively, scratching at a non-existent itch on his arm "I think you do~

the way that you flirt with blue eyes is with fleeting eye contact and shy smiles thrown from a distance, initially it started out that way. You were always drawn in by his azure eyes and his almost regal stance, he looked a lot like his father but so much like his mother.

Over time you grown close and your flirting consisted of compliments (Blue Eyes deserves a partner with a love language being words of affirmation) and the gifting of small trinkets, like a shiny stone you found in the coursing waters of the river or small figurine you craved from wood that took you ages to finish.

Blue Eyes is totally at a loss of how to respond to this behavior of yours, Apes don't feel the need to speak on things that are obvious translated into compliments and he accepts your trinkets and keeps them in a safe place but you were unaware of him doing so. Over time, you feel like you are being a pest and bothering him with human like qualities, so you cut back on the flirting.

At first he's slow to come to the realization that your behavior has changed, your grin lacks the radiance and your hands are empty of gifts instead you've resorted to smiling softly and gifting him space (I can imagine him being like noo, I want you close 🥺 AHHH)

So now he's on a mission of gifting you the shiniest stones he can find in the river and making adornments he spends hours at a time making while caring for Cornelius just so everytime you meet up he has a bestowal at ready and of course he's been practicing how to compliment you.

You are thrown off guard by this. This isn't a normal behavior amongst the apes, so you just know that he's mimicking your flirting behavior, so you just have to tease him. "Blue eyes! Another gift for me?" He signs that he knows you like traditional jewelry the female apes wear in the colony."Is this your way of showing you like me?" And he's hesitant to admit before relenting,"yes."

HAZBIN CHARACTERS IF YOU GOT A CAT

This is a follow up to my aninal lover post.

Alastor

Confused as to where you got an actual cat in Hell.

At least it's not a dog.

Will say he doesn't like cats and complain about it getting fur everywhere but constantly has the cat near him while he's boradcasting, idly petting it.

If the cat is a menace and knocks things over a lot, especially while he's broadcasting he's using his shadows to restrain it or throw it out.

He literally makes a shadow cage for it sometimes when it has zoomies and attacks his feet.

Is annoyed with you for laughing and calling it "baby jail".

The cat better be useful and actually hunt the pests around the hotel.

He's feeding it flesh as a treat guys. Just accept it.

Charlie

OMG YOU HAVE A CAT!!! AN ACTUAL CAT!

She wants your cat and Kiki to be best friends.

Buys all of the cat toys. Expensive multi level cat trees. She cooks for it.

If it's not a cuddler, she's willing to suffer dozens of scratches just to hold it.

Has dozens of nicknames for your cat and spoils it all the time with treats.

Vox

Prefers dogs probably, but won't complain about the cat because it's more practical for people who are as busy as you all are.

He's mildly annoyed by all the cat hair everywhere, especially if it gets in his wiring or joints. Is also annoyed because he generates heat and hums from his mechanical parts, so the little shit literally won't leave him alone. It's hard to be an intimidating Overlord when there's a ball of floof on your lap/chest, and it purrs really loud to match your humming.

He swears he doesn't enjoy it, and you can hear him scolding the cat like it's a child whenever it does something, it shouldn't. Also has a kennel/cat carrier made to put the child, he means cat, in timeout. Threatens to feed it to his sharks while he watches it bap the tank glass for hours.

Buys it little ties and suits with his colors and logo on it since the damn thing wants to be with him at all times. If the child (cat) wants to come to meetings it's gonna dress the part. The cat is literally your child with him he just refuses to acknowledge it.

Valentino

Let's go with him not being the type of guy to shoot a pet for being annoying.

At first, Valentino doesn't like it because he just isn't an animal person. Like I said before he likes the idea of them more than actually having one. He does get annoyed with cat hair on everything and the little shit knocking things over.

However, let's say this cat is very sweet and snuggly. I think overtime he'd get used to it and begin to enjoy petting it and snuggling it. Maybe you, him, and the cat, all cuddled up to watch a movie. It helps him relax, especially if the cat is purring. He's also the type to dress it up and take photos with it.

Overall, I definitely think it's still more your pet than his, but he doesn’t hate it, and it does help him a lot, and he enjoys seeing you happy.

Lucifer

Cat dad. Immediately commits to that being your first child together. Like Charlie he will suffer unholy amounts of scratches to pet and cuddle it. Buys it fancy clothes and collars. Cooks homemade food for it. That's how I view it going down no matter where or how you acquired the cat.

However,

Honestly, he's probably the only one where you suggest outright getting a pet and pick out the cat together. You didn't even know an actual normal cat was an option for a pet in Hell, but he surprises you by taking you to some fancy ass place where high ranking demons have collected things from the mortal world and sell them. Running an actual high class, well documented, and strictly maintained cat breeding business, is a cat demon, and you two spend days meeting different litters of kittens and interacting with them in various scenarios to get a feel for their personality.

You guys definitely get a snuggler, because Lucifer really needs as much extra love as he can get. He excitedly tells Charlie she and Kiki are big siblings now and posts dozens of pictures on day one of owning it. You guys have a family portrait with the cat, Charlie, Vaggie, Razzle, and Kiki.

Refers to it as his child when speaking and calls himself dad and you mom (regardless of gender. You're mom)

Alternatively, he's mom and you're the father. He thinks gender norms are bullshit anyway. He can be a mom, he can shapeshift. (Also ya know, he apparently birthed Charlie).

Charlie loves her new feline sibling and brings Kiki and Razzle over to play all the time. It helps her spend more time with her dad too.

Angel Dust

He's a pet mom too! Will bring Fat Nuggets with him to play with your cat.

You guys dress them up and do photo shoots with your cats. Angel has an entire social media account now dedicated just to your cat and Fat Nuggets and eventually the other Hotel Pets.

He likes that both your cat and Nuggets can tell when he's had a bad day, and therefore you can tell. He likes that you can just sit with him in quiet solidarity, or play music, or a podcast, or just talk shit to distract him. He loves Cherri, but her method of getting through stuff is kind of exhausting for him sometimes.

Your voice, a kitty purring (if only it was Husk), Nuggets nuzzling his floof, that's kind of all he needs right now.

Husk

He and the cat just stare at each other, sometimes for hours, just staring. The cat will make little chirps, and he'll do it back if he's not thinking about it.

If the cat hisses at him he hisses back.

Skippity baps. The cat started it, he swears, and he just bapped it back.

Both of them high and catnip with zoomies. So much shit gets knocked down. Alastor strictly forbids Husk to ever get near the stuff again afterwards.

Alternatively, he, Kiki, and your cat, sprawled in a patch of sunlight, and all purring as they doze.

[thowawayuntilfurthernotice]

I love how this person assumes I'm one of those weirdos who complains about villainous acts in media, all because I poked fun at the fact that the incestuous relationship story line between Stella and Andre was dropped because Viv didn't like the attention she was getting from incest shippers.

Also, just because you personally wouldn't have minded if Stella and Andre were in an incestuous relationship shouldn't discredit the people who were grossed out by the idea.

Believe it not, making your villains depraved assholes ruins their effectiveness. It's why Kamoshida from Persona 5 is such a terrible villain, it's not because I'm grossed out by the fact that he's a creepy sex pest, it's the fact that the writers try so hard to make you hate him that he just comes off as cartoony and one note.

If you want an example of a truly loathsome villain done right, look no further than Hank Hippopopalous from the Bojack Horseman episode "Hank After Dark."

What makes Hank such a great villain is that he truly believes that being a beloved public figure automatically absolves him from any wrongdoing. And what's worse is that, the general public seems to share the same sentiment in universe, as they constantly treat Diane like a villain throughout the episode for speaking out against Hank.

Point is, I'm a firm believer in the "Less is more" rule when it comes to writing compelling villains. Because any hack can write for a depraved villain, but very few folks can write for villains who are grounded in reality.

I LOVEEEE DOG GALLIGAR I NEED MORE

please read the rules and regulations next time anon cuz I'll ignore asks that don't follow format. Anyways I'm a big gallagher simp so I can't ignore a humble request. here's a quick sketch of farmer!reader and (yandere utc) dog!gallagher + extra brainrots cooked up 1 AM cuz I just finished a school output

Domestic Fluff/Crack:

You rarely buy chocolate after taking Gallagher in. Not because you're worried that the canine might randomly eat some and get a "lethal" dose— but because he simply looks disgruntled whenever you take a bite. He went on quite a long tangent about how it doesn't taste that great and you would much rather not hear it a second time.

In your first week together, you might've gone overboard and bought every dog care product you could think off. Gallagher heartily laughed when he saw you bought one of every shampoo— and then his heart dropped when you pulled out a pet razor next in the shopping bag. Needless to say, his silence saved his skin. Or well, in this case, fur.

You often pondered over the ethics of having a half-human in your home. It's not that you treat him poorly or bar him from opportunities elsewhere, but you remind him from time to time that he can leave the farm if he wants to. In which, he would either a) put a hand on your shoulder and earnestly decline or b) joke about how he's going to bite you if you ask again.

Speaking of jokes, he never tells you about his past— which was a decision you respected. However, it's become an inside joke for the two of you to make up his backstory and how you met. When your traveler friend Boothill once came to visit, you both told him that Gallagher was actually an ex-police dog who decided he's tired of snitching where the drugs were when "it's always hidden in cushions anyways". When the local innkeeper Siobhan asked where did he come from, he said he was once a bartender— and you made a convincing follow-up that it was the reason behind his distaste for SoulGlad. He even shocked everyone when he had the skills to back that lie up. You swear that every time, the story and people's reactions become more and more priceless.

Yandere:

But not everyone is elusive of his true nature.

That's why he hates whenever your neighbor "Sunday" visits.

Gallagher doesn't want it to happen, but that man seems to always discern the facade he's putting on. He doesn't like it at all. He always had to hold back a sharp stare and a growl whenever he's around. But that man. That hawk...

Why does he always cling to you like a pest?

He knows- he knows you're friends with him and that Robin girl since childhood- but shouldn't those numerous interactions suffice? Why does HE keep stealing your time together? That Sunday is a hybrid himself— he should know that someone has already marked this household territory.

Still, that bird perches on your porch, greeting you with a smile that you'll reciprocate. But the cunning glimpses he sends Gallagher indicates that they equally find the other person bothersome.

"What're you doing here?" Gallagher scoffed. "Don't you have a Family to go back to?"

Sunday smiled politely, though with how his hands are always hidden from the dog's view, he can only guess that it's clenched in a tight fist.

"And you don't?"

"(Y/n) is my Family."

"Before they were yours, they were mine."

That caught Gallagher's attention.

... Isn't that technically the truth? Even without papers, isn't the bond you, Robin, and that fiend share essentially a strong familial bond? He had only heard snippets in town and from yourself, but you three had known each other almost since birth.

So... What does that make him?

A pet?

A hound?

A friend?

A partner?

Or a mere passing memory?

Despite these thoughts, he steeled his resolve and shook his head, subconsciously holding his neck. There's no collar. Nothing that physically binds him to you. And, for reasons he didn't quite placed at the time, he hated the sensation of freedom.

He hated being free.

He hated being detached from you.

"With what to prove, huh?" Gallagher snarled. "Leave. They're asleep. Don't bother them today— or ever again."

He volunteered to patrol for the next nights to hide his insomnia. Gallagher did not understand where most these emotions stemmed from. Why would he wish to be shackled when he just got himself out or a cage? You were kind enough to supply him with basic necessities and allow him to do whatever he wants after work is done— so why this emptiness?

But when he came back home at dawn after unlocking the door with the spare key you gave him— he got his answer.

He felt his feet drag him to your door. Before he could even process what was happening, Gallagher was seated at a nearby chair, tenderly caressing your face.

This was the answer he was looking for. The raison d'etre. All resolved under three words:

"You... I want you."

And for a while, that was enough.

I RAN HERE I ALMOST DROPPED MY PHONE

BARTENDER SCARA GETTING JEALOUS OVER THE PEOPLE FLIRTING WITH U, HOW COULD THEY YOUR JUST SO INNOCENT SO SWEET LOOKING

SO AFTER HIS SHIFT HE WALKS OVER AND TREATS US TO A DRINK BEFORE HE MUMBLED UNDER HIS BREATH HOW PERFECT YOU WOULD LOOK UNDER HIM

Bartender!Scaramouche x fem!reader. Jealous Scara. Smutty in nature.

You guys 🥺🥺 You sure are spoiling me today❤️

You'd been so polite all night, smiling sweetly and brushing off the advances of more than few infuriating men. Scaramouche was starting to set drinks down in front of people on the bar with some force, making a few of them jump.

He supposed he couldn't blame them. He himself had been watching you with the same lustful intent as the men hitting on you. It was really pissing him off how their eyes wandered to your legs when you crossed and uncrossed them.

He absolutely couldn't stand it when one reached out and tucked some hair behind your ear, continuing right on with his pathetic, drunk flirting.

You'd turned this guy down twice already, and he just kept coming back. Sighing in frustration, Scaramouche practically dropped the glass down onto the bar in front of the persistent pest. "Your tab is closed out after this. Drink this and go home, you've had enough," He had to fight the urge to call him a pathetic worm.

"You heard him, let's get out of here, sweet thing," The guy slurred. You narrowed your eyes, annoyed.

"Look, I--" You began.

Scaramouche snatched the drink out of his hand. Just for that, this shithead was getting the rest of his drink dumped down the drain. He would still be paying for the drink of course. He was wasting his words, may as well make him waste his money too. "She's not going anywhere with you," He snapped.

"He's right, I am not," You said, getting up to move a few stools down away from him, closer to Scaramouche.

"Besides, I don't like sharing," He murmured, a smirk of victory tugging at the corners of his lips. You'd all but put the guy in checkmate for him.

"You heard her, now fuck off," Scaramouche was daring him to make a rude comment. Thankfully, the guy just sighed and left.

He stayed near you for the rest of his shift. You shouldn't have to be troubled by shitheads hassling you to hook up with them all night. So he made sure they kept their distance from you, which you were grateful for.

"This one is on me," He said, setting a glass down with the strawberry flavored drink you had been ordering all night. He waved his hand dismissively at you when you reached in your purse to try and pay for the drink.

Relenting, you took a sip of the drink. "Thank you, as usual it's really good. You have a a knack for mixing these, perfectly." You said, blushing from how smooth the vodka and strawberry tasted on your tongue.

"Sure, but that drink isn't half as perfect as you would look underneath me," He mumbled, feeling his ego inflate a little. His apartment was right upstairs above the bar.

You put your hand in his when he held it out to you.

I'm a bit obsessed with my current OC-insert-as-Aizen fic but instead of editing a new chapter here's some out of context incorrect quotes and memes instead

Part 2

...

OC!Aizen, sitting on a throne: hey, maybe this megalomaniac thing is a good look for me after all

Aizen, after remembering Ichigo literally exists: nevermind...

...

OC!Aizen, contemplating killing central 46 for the 264175th time this week: after all, why not? Why shouldn't I do it? Just a little treat. Just a little murder. Who knows, villainy could be a sexy look on me. Who am I kidding? I've seen the anime. Of course villainy is a sexy look on me.

...

Shinji, bluffing: I know what you are.

OC!Aizen, interal panic: (🏳️‍🌈?)

...

OC!Aizen discovering his 'unacceptable' crush on his insufferable captain: and just when you think you've hit rock bottom. you want to fuck a blonde guy.

...

OC!Aizen: i bring a whole 'lets kill the central 46 and overhaul the government to serve its people instead of the 1%' vibe to the workplace that Hirako-taicho really doesn't like

...

OC!Aizen, seeing Shinji off for a mission: -and stay safe!

Shinji: I have no say in that matter.

OC!Aizen: Haha, die then.

...

OC!Aizen: Captain is pissing me off lately :) I think I'm gonna do a little harmless prank :)))

OC!Aizen: *uses psychological warfare*

Shinji:*suddenly in a horror movie* what the hell

....

OC!Aizen: I hate Hirako-taicho

Also, Aizen: *in a room full of pictures of Hirako Shinji*

....

Canon!Ichigo (in AU): He's dangerous! He tried to kill Shinji!

3rd seat Narumi (OC): *looks at Aizen unsheating Suigetsu with a sickly sweet smile as Shinji tries to escape from doing paperwork* Yeah he does that sometimes

...

Shinji:*trips and falls on his face*

OC!Aizen: are you dead? Did you die? I hope he did.

Shinji: …

...

OC!Aizen: so what do we think about this, chat?

Suigetsu: stop calling me 'chat'

OC!Aizen: …

Suigetsu: … *sigh*

Suigetsu: shits fucked

OC!Aizen: Thank you, chat.

...

Younger!Gin, being a little shit: When I grow up I wanna be jus like ya!

OC!Aizen, on his 6th smoke break in 2 hrs: No no no---

...

Younger!Rangiku: When I grow up I wanna be just like you!

OC!Aizen, halfway into Hollowfication research he wasn't able to resist: Absolutely fucking NOT--

...

Aizen: I think we can be evil. As a treat.

Momo, suddenly nervous: W-we?

Aizen: We :)

...

Aizen: Hi, welcome to Soul Society Pest Control, how may we help you?

Shinji: This is my fucking office.

[cumtastiics]

in his eyes, you were a stupid, abandoned mutt.

you were below him - just a lowlife was what you were.

"you're such an obedient mutt. so, so stupid." he gripped tightly on your chin, watching you as you struggled to breath with the gag on after he mercilessly fucked you, like you were nothing.

"does anything go through that tiny little brain of yours, mutt? i bet you can't fucking do anything."

he loved talking about you like you were some pest. your furrowed eyebrows and glossy eyes were like a treat to him, he felt like a kid who just got some candy.

"uh-huh, eyes on me, mutt. why do you always look off to the side? you shouldn't be that fucking out of it."

[thanatika]

people on that child support post are talking as if patho classic daniil is great with kids and it's pathologic 2 daniil that people are getting this negative idea of him from, which got me thinking...

daniil's main characterization of how he treats kids in patho 2 comes from artemy's POV of him, which is biased against daniil due to daniil making a really dickish first impression, and is also based off of unreliable narrator accounts:

first by some kids outside of rubin's house who lead artemy to believe that daniil refused to treat poisoned children when it was actually just dying dogs, which can be followed by artemy confronting daniil himself where he continues to misunderstand the situation and assumes daniil is calling children animals, until he finally visits the kids' warehouse and learns it was just the soul-and-a-halves' pets. which, obviously it would be a nice thing to save pets from dying, but he really ISN'T a veterinarian and there's a deadly plague starting. he's doing triage.

and then another early incident with the kid in the warehouse dying of sand pest, where notkin passes along a message telling artemy not to bother trying to save him that makes him sound very dismissive ("Don't waste your time on Patches, it's over for him"). reading between the lines though, it's pretty clear that he came to that conclusion not because he doesn't want to save people from the sand pest, but because this is a seemingly incurable disease with no medical cure, and at that point he probably hasn't had the chance to test the schmowders on himself so would have no reason to believe in their effectiveness, and assesses that loading patches up with drugs will just kill him. which, he's literally correct! whether you treat him with tinctures, pills, or a whole schmowder, patches dies that night. obviously trying to treat him or at least ease his suffering is a morally good dead, but you can also see the implied basis of daniil's actions, that every second is precious in the early stages of trying to prevent a widespread outbreak, so you shouldn't waste time on a patient who ultimately can't be saved. (which fits in really well not only with his arc in both games where he comes to the conclusion that the whole town is unsalvageable, but with the bigger emphasis on time management and manipulation that his remake has been described as having. hell, maybe from daniil's POV he knows for certain that patches will die due to whatever time manipulation that's going on with him, and that spending the time on that patient allows for a larger disaster to happen elsewhere). so, the situation is framed by notkin (understandably, because he's just a kid and that's his friend dying) and artemy (because he's honestly pretty petty about daniil) as just "the bachelor is an asshole and abandoned these kids" when it's more of a genuine ethical quandary.

he's also pretty rude and dismissive in how he talks about grace to artemy later on, but again, it's pretty clear that he's not just being a hater to a 15 year old for no reason, the point he's making is that she shouldn't be left in charge of a graveyard filled with potentially bio-hazardous corpses.

all that to say, the main canon info about how he treats children in patho 2 basically comes from the fact that a lot of kids end up disliking him, because he's extremely pragmatic to the point of being heartless, but still ultimately pretty understandable in what he's trying to do (stop a plague).

meanwhile when we do get to see his POV in the marble nest, i would say the way he treats children is pretty much consistent with how he talks to them in pathologic classic -- if anything, he's a bit nicer to them? he has some fed-up, yelling sort of dialogue options to the kids, but pretty much all of those are based on being upset that they're out breaking quarantine and putting themselves at risk of death. meanwhile other dialogue options make him come off very much willing to humor them and talk to them on their level. and when another adult is much harsher about the kids being irresponsible, he defends them, with no dialogue option to agree with corporal punishment:

meanwhile in pathologic classic, i do think that on the whole daniil is pretty nice to kids and willing to go out of his way to protect or help them (to the point of risking death, such as the late game sidequest where he can agree to go take on several soldiers to keep the father of two children from being wrongly executed). but he does also have some really unkind and spiteful dialogue options, like some of what he says to clara both in his own route and hers, and on the topic of corporal punishment...

[mr-laveau]

how do you feel about minors listening to ur nexus videos? cuz ik some of them have like sexual undertones

Long answer but preface: this is a multifaceted conversation and I'm gonna address this as best as I can with my knowledge and experience–I do have 21 years of knowledge and experience tho sooooo you're allowed to have your opinions.

Really, I can't stop them from watching the videos, the wild thing about it is that teenagers really will just do what they want if they want to do it, that's just the fact of the situation I'm afraid. That said, I'm also not going to treat them like pests or shoo them because I'm not their parent and it's not my job.

I suppose someone could say "they're kids, they shouldn't be exposed to sex" and I agree, hence I don't go around showing kids the porn I make. That said, we actually need to be serious with ourselves for a second and recognize that teens are horny lil buggers, they're gonna do what they want really and all I can do is block their access to my more explicit content.

Minors, specially teenagers do have a very vague concept of sexuality and they're curious about this stuff, I think that bf ASMR is how they explore that for themselves and that's good for them. Do what you will with the characters if it helps you figure out more about yourself or if you just are looking for something to be attached to/entertained by, just don't do that with me the person. That's a boundary I have set and I'm glad to report that most people have respected it.

I honestly feel that me going "shoo, get out of here" is frankly not a response I should have because I've seen how that goes and weellll I'm not looking to repeat what I've seen happen in those cases. I also feel like its puritanical of me to treat kids like they're pure little souls who don't know better and must be steered away from all things adult–like let's be so real, that is a human being like you and me who's fumbling about with less sense under that skull of theirs/lh

The best I can do is set my boundaries and ask them to adhere to it. If they don't do that then I'll remove them from my sight with the help of a block button. Other than that, the peeps that I have spoken to here and there have been really respectful and have also taken more to the concept of my videos being room for self-inserts and expression so I don't want to take that from them.

We already have cases of kids in the redacted fandom who don't got a lick of sense who say and do things that hurt people. I want to kindly avoid that and just help foster a space where people of all ages can just have fun and experience my stuff for themselves whilst also making sure to not get called a pedophile in the process–something I think I've managed well enough if the NeXus discord is any proof of that/pos

P.S hopefully what I'm doin and sayin also helps kids grow some more sense of their own to know how to move about navigate these spaces better rather than leaving them out in the wild and hoping for the best as they terrorise the rest of the people who enjoy my work.

by the way adding onto the Meat Farm Y/N AU, I’d imagine as the name implies that Y/N owns a Vita Carnis “meat farm” of sorts. They water The Crawl, have a pet Trimming, they have a pet Meat Snake they use to dispose of bodies in their Morgue job (a farm such as this can only pay so much, unfortunately— people still don’t quite like this species, especially considering Mimics and Harvesters— Speaking of)

They feed a mimic that hangs around the morgue dead bodies of serial killers and whatnot, they have a Harvester in their backyard (it feeds on pests in the back yarn like deer and moose, which often is where gardening takes place— Y/N is safe as long as they have their safety equipment, such as thick boots and gloves typically seen on police and whatnot [likely stolen from said police, considering they know about top secret government stuff.])

Watches a monolith far in the distance, not ever moving an inch. Knows about the Singularity, due to hacking government files. Everyone in the town nearby knows a majority of their life (minus the mimic part obviously) revolves around Vita Carnis, so they’re considered very much as a freak who is obsessed over living meat— as such, they’re not treated kindly, especially by townspeople who (admittedly at least somewhat understandably) don’t like the new species roaming earth, but that’s fine! The townspeople might not like Y/N, but they have their meaty friends, and that’s good enough for them. The townspeople wonder how they aren’t dead yet.

sorry this is long I just really loved your idea ok,,

I love everything about this.

For the Host of Influence, I imagine them safely collecting its spores (not for the flavor enhancing seasoning tho bc they know it's a bunch of brainwashing bs) and going out to use them against bad people they learned are out of jail. People they think deserve a gruesome execution but got off with merely a slap on the wrist

Literally goes up to their door and says "pocket sand" while throwing some spore dust in their eyes before running off.

After that, it's only a matter of hours before the Host in their backyard gets its dinner :)

Also

Since the Trimming plushie is out, imagine they get one bc they deserve something nice, y'know? They deserve a little treat

But then imagine their actual pet Trimming thinks its being replaced and will S C R E A M every time it sees this "impostor" and they have to hide it and shouldn't hold it in their little meat puppy's presence

What men mean when they say they prefer fictional women:

Real women aren't willing to do whatever I say and exist as sex objects whose only purpose is to provide me with pleasure. They aren't submissive enough. They aren't slutty enough. They don't worship my dick enough. They don't look and act like hentai characters. Their proportions aren't pornified enough. They don't look like teenagers. They have too many emotions and needs and thoughts and boundaries. They get too upset when you mistreat them. Having a real adult relationship with them where both parties are expected to act like adults and treat each other with respect is too much hassle. I shouldn't even be expected to have that kind of relationship with a woman, anyways. A proper woman should live to pamper and spoil and satisfy her man and I shouldn't have to do anything but enjoy. But real women are too human to be proper women.

What women mean when they say they prefer fictional men:

Fictional men can't beat you. They can't rape you. They can't murder you. They can't trap you for decades in an abusive and exploitative relationship. Once you're done reading or watching whatever he's in, you don't have to worry if a fictional man is secretly much worse than he seems, because everything that he is has already been written down/put on screen. If he isn't canonically a misogynist or a creep or a sex pest, then he just isn't those things, and you know that for certain, and you don't need to worry about it. Fictional men won't start treating you worse once you're married and pregnant. Fictional men won't abandon you when you become too ill to take care of them. Fictional men won't molest your kids. Fictional men are genuine in their sweetness and kindness and general goodness unless explicitly written otherwise, and if they aren't being genuine then you'll be given clear indications of that fact. There are no risks to your safety with fictional men. Even if he turns out to be someone other than who you initially thought he was, what does it matter? He isn't real. He can't really have power over you. He can't really take advantage of your trust. He can't really hurt you.

keeping objects as pets #3: candles!

hi there! in this series, i’ll be going over basic descriptions of commonly-kept object species (and some rare ones too!), facts about them, why you might want one as a pet, their basic needs and necessities provided you want to house one, and things you should NEVER do. for the third of this series, we're covering candles!

description

candles are a very diverse breed of object that come in a ton of unique shapes and sizes. some are short and stocky while others are very tall! they usually are less than a foot tall, but they can be taller, in rare instances. their legs are plantigrade, with three fingers per hand and three toes per foot. their claws are non-retractable. their limbs, while softer underneath, are covered in hard and inflexible flame-resistant scales, similar to that of a pangolin or armadillo. they are able to light spontaneously, but this takes more energy than they typically have and they often must find a way to produce their flames on their own. their wicks regrow over time if damaged and have no nerves. they produce wax through their whole life.

facts about candles

uniquely among objects, candles can sometimes produce a thin covering of a glasslike material to protect their wax bodies. object biologists aren't fully sure why this gene is inactive in some candles and active in others. their bodies, unlike real candlewax, are more soft and malleable and therefor more prone to damage, so it's agreed on that this "jar" formation is meant as a protective covering, though with it being so fragile, some specialists have suggested it to play a role in mate selection in the wild. their diet consists primarily of insects in the wild, but can be supplemented with crustaceans as well - they seem to have a taste for shellfish.

why as a pet?

candles aren't as skittish as lanterns, and can be quite bold at times. they aren't curious by nature like backpacks, though, preferring to stay in small groups in a remote location. this can make them ideal for people looking for an object that doesn't need company every single day, though this shouldn't be an excuse to neglect them! their melted wax can be collected and used as a regular candle as well, so for people who like to meditate, this can be a great way to save money, provided they can meet the needs of the creature. these animals are quiet and reserved, and very easily trained, which can make them ideal for people with children in their homes as well.

basic needs + do’s and dont’s

as previously stated, candles primarily consume insects. they favor grubs over adult insects, but their teeth are able to crack open the shells of most beetles, roaches etc. this can make them great for pest control in houses with lots of insects, but you should never rely on them for this! their primary need is that they absolutely MUST BE LIT now and then! candles produce wax through their whole lives and in the wild they will light themselves if possible (sometimes using tools to achieve this), but due to potential danger with fire indoors you absolutely HAVE to light them yourself to burn excess wax off. if the dripping wax is an issue, you can try waiting for it to harden again before scraping it off floors. alternatively you can try "dry-waxing", which is a relatively new practice for candle owners. this consists of using special waxing tools to remove built up wax from the object; care must be taken as removing too much can be extremely painful for the object and possibly even kill them. this is why i recommend taking your object to the vet to have them perform this instead to avoid harm to your pet. if your candle is hesitant to go in a carrier, you can try luring them with a raw shrimp, one of their favorite treats.

their primary sources of enrichment come from their environment, which is a great way to lead into:

housing

candles don't require a massive space, but these animals do require at least a medium size house to be fully comfortable. they like to have a visually stimulating space, with bright colors - if your home has more muted colors, i suggest setting up a "den" for your candle to keep them stimulated. as far as toys go, they actually aren't as overly playful as some species, but maybe have some cat toys such as feathers on poles for them or mice to throw around.

that’s all! hopefully this helps educate anyone who is considering this species!

hot takes for Regretevator fandom (part 3):

(DISCLAIMER THAT THESE ARE JUST A SILLY LIL OPINION OF MINE !!! If you dont agree then you do you but just keep this in mind ^_^)

In my opinion I think partybeetle shouldn't rlly be shipped much. Why? Pest is aroace. By shipping a character that's 100% asexual and 100% aromantic you're erasing the sexuality! Canonically Aroace characters are very few to see in medias and it isn't very nice for the representation to be erased constantly. ^_^ It's like you ship Gnarpy with other characters, xe are aroace so it'd feel like erasure.

Can we stop treating Spud like a weak person who can't do anything? Just because Spud is disabled both mentally and physically doesn't mean they can't do anything. They can pretty much do basic things on his own without any help. It feels a bit ableist to think like this because you think disabled people like Spud can't take care of themselves.

Will once again wait until I get beaten up to death for my takes (especially the first one...Partybeetle shippers will get my ass for my opinion...)

Tintin and GN!Reader taking care of a Child

It all starts with a quiet day in Brussels, exactly on October 3 on a cold but calm morning, enough for the two to go together to have a coffee at that time

— I think I should visit my aunt, she has only just arrived in Brussels but she has been busy working

You speak with a soft and calm tone while drinking coffee to keep yourself active, Tin shows curiosity when hearing about your family, he really hadn't heard you talk much about them so he thinks it's a good idea to go and meet your family.

— Sounds perfect, anyway Haddock said he would be with Calculus taking care of his new roses

Tin spoke in a kind way but he really seemed enthusiastic, he wanted to make a good impression with your family.

The two arrive at the door of the house after a while, you knock firmly on the door……

The door is opened by a child of just 10 years old, who showed a grimace of disgust when he saw Tin, obviously he recognized you instantly and let you in but after you passed he closed the door on Tin in the house.

(Insert the name of the little monkey, idk, i hate that child, so im gonna put C!__ when the child's name is necessary)

— C!___-! What are you doing? That is my boyfriend!

You quickly open the door showing Tin's face, somewhat surprised by the child's behavior but also somewhat irritated although he does not want to accept it, he quickly manages to calm down and be more friendly because obviously he does not want to be rude to the child.

The child seems upset that you let the carrot head into his house, acting angry and obviously expressing his displeasure

— Why did you have to choose this red head as your boyfriend? Obviously you gave him a little scolding for being so rude to your boyfriend, so you got a little closer to him and told him.

—You shouldn't treat people who come to visit like that, Tintin didn't do anything to you, we just came to say hello to my aunt.

The boy found this news even worse, so he tried to pretend like he didn't care in the slightest, but the minute you left Tin alone, the boy returned from his room.

— You look strange, why are you so ugly and baby-faced?

Tin is slightly stoic about the situation, trying to remain calm and collected.

— I don't have a baby face.

Tin tries to look for you to get the boy to stop bothering him and end his patience right now, the boy is obviously still making mocking faces behind him.

— That's right, look for your partner like the fearful person you are.

The boy told him in a mocking manner while he was bothering Tin, trying to climb into his arms.

Tin finally thought that the boy was going to stop bothering him but he was wrong, with the boy being in his arms…. He pulls Tin's hair, making Tin quickly grab the boy by the hand to stop him from doing that

— You should behave better with someone older than you.

Tin spoke irritably, slightly biting his tongue to calm himself down a bit and quickly taking the child out of his arms making the child cry.

You were in the kitchen trying to cook something to eat for everyone while they wait for your aunt, when you hear the crying you quickly see what is happening.

— What happened??

You speak in a somewhat upset manner when you see the child crying and Tin with a slightly upset face

Tin takes a breath to calm down while you try to calm the child but he wouldn't stop crying.

— He hasn't stopped bothering me since we arrived.

You look at the boy with an irritated face upon hearing that while the boy quickly walks away knowing that you obviously knew the truth.

— Don't worry, sweetie…. My aunt said she won't be long to get home

Slowly you approach him to hug him in a friendly way, you can feel how his body slightly stops being tense and he tries to be calm, accompanying you to the kitchen and helping you cook.

You can see the boy peeking his head out from the door frame, you really didn't pay much attention.

After a few moments, Tin's hand slowly slides from your shoulder to your hip, caressing that part lovingly and giving you kisses on the cheek until C!__ pours water on both of them with a squirt gun to make them dry. separate

— Okay, I've had enough.

Tin quickly approaches C!___, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt as if he were a cat, sitting him in a baby chair and putting the belt on him so he doesn't get out.

— Stay here.

Tin speaks coldly and quickly returns to your side, the two of you hear the door of the house opening.

Finally your aunt had arrived and the child tried to victimize himself by crying, at first it helped but you quickly explained what happened

bt: The child got kicked out from his house (jk) Sorry for no posting anything in a month, i was on a trip with my parents to have a breath from the problems but now i feel worse im sorry if i don't know how to make Tintin be more canon
