#VERY BEAUTIFUL. VERRRRY POWERFUL.

HIII FRIEND!! 💌🥺 I'd looove to see your Hawke AND your gray warden...!! gib info im so curious 👀💗 (no pressure, only if u feeling like it!!)

since you and @lillenta both included Hawke, I did her first!

This is Vyr "my full name is 10 years long and a drunken waltz from the Hanged Man" Hawke! She's a blood mage, enjoys crime, is a compulsive liar, and if you ask her how she lost her eye, the story changes every time. Very tall and very buff lass.

Most importantly, Vyr and Varric are desperately in LOVE but keep it a secret :3

What I loved about Cinderella's Castle is it is so entirely about Ella. We know starkid can handle a show with tons and tons of characters but I found it quite refreshing for it to be so wholly her story? I think it was a lovely choice for this show and man Bryce did such a perfect job of it, she is truly such a star

[dreamwritesimagines]

It’s CMA-

Look you can’t bring up clover/Anthony and not expect me to crash the party.

Do you know how good their story would be???? I normally don’t like enemies to lovers but I’ve been saying it since the first chapter they met: there is definitely 1000% an AU where they’re together.

The bonding over the shared trauma and the recognization of the self through others (and hating it at first)?

Also we only got a small glimpse of it through the story but like when Anthony finds out what her parents did in detail???? You can’t tell me that wouldn’t absolutely fuck (/pos)

Like the way he would be so quiet through it all, but the tension in his body, the way his eyes would darken with every word, his silence speaking more than words ever could but clover not knowing what he’s feeling. The way that he would carefully measure every word in his reply I just-

Also his tendency to like protect his family at all costs even if they didn’t ask for it and just the fight that clover would have with that because she doesn’t like feeling out of control but also how she’s spent her entire life having to be the one who protects herself and her family and just not being able to surrender that or let go of that instinct because of how ingrained in her it is

And just the two of them protecting each other and sharing the burdens of protecting one another’s families. Clover hears someone talking shit about daphne and before Anthony can do anything she’s already verbally eviscerating them.

Anthony gets word that someone’s been giving teddy a hard time in school and immediately sends word to the person, their family, and the entire school and just the lengths they would go through for one another.

They are truly two people who would burn the entire world down for one another and it’s devastating and powerful and tragic but beautiful.

Two people who don’t know how to love in any way that isn’t with everything they are and have.

Ugh don’t talk to me I’m not okay and I am so not normal about them lmao

MY LOVE, WELCOME TO THE PARTY😈

They would have such a turbulent romance! 🥰 Like, I think their dynamic would be amazing, because they're both similar and verrrry different 😏 AND THEIR FIRST SCENE TOGETHER AAAAAA-

The bonding over the shared trauma and the recognization of the self through others (and hating it at first)? EXACTLY!

Like, I feel like they wouldn't know what hit them even before they opened up to each other but when they actually did... oh my 😏

Like the way he would be so quiet through it all, but the tension in his body, the way his eyes would darken with every word, his silence speaking more than words ever could but clover not knowing what he’s feeling. I can see this picture so well! 😍 Like, Clover would be very shocked because his whole posture would be so rigid with anger but he would still be very careful not to scare her off in any way!

Also his tendency to like protect his family at all costs even if they didn’t ask for it and just the fight that clover would have with that because she doesn’t like feeling out of control but also how she’s spent her entire life having to be the one who protects herself and her family and just not being able to surrender that or let go of that instinct because of how ingrained in her it is THIS! THIIIIS!

It would be a rollercoaster for them both ❤️ You're absolutely right, for Clover that's what she's used to and feeling out of control makes her claws come out but like, Anthony protecting her? She would be so confused, going from defensive "I don't need help" to soft "thank you" 🥰

They are truly two people who would burn the entire world down for one another and it’s devastating and powerful and tragic but beautiful. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH OMG THIS IS SUCH A GOOD WAY TO DESCRIBE THAT DYNAMIC❤️

Thank you so so much darling! ❤️

In yesterday's dreaming experience, every time I woke up and went back to sleep, I had a different dream about a different never-before-seen au Drayton. By now the only one I remember is the last one. He was the bodyguard of a magical girl and he had so many guns. Very serious personality too. Probably the most out-of-character Drayton I've seen.

I've been winning on the dream stuff lately. I think it was from Crispin pulling that silly stunt, if the dream continuity is to blame for this.

Last night's dreams were also fun. It's a long story so I'll add a "keep reading" down there. These continued every time I woke up and went back to sleep so it was basically a really really long dream that just got occasionally interrupted.

It was--- very fanfictiony. Like. Extremely so. Almost embarrassingly so. However, I enjoyed all of it. Because. It was comfy.

Also I think it may have been influenced by the fact the brain goblins have all collectively looked like Drayton for more than a consecutive week. Because I was Drayton in the dream.

I was hanging out with a few people. It was Carmine, Crispin, and my favorite au Hop (the one I call Reaper). But I was mainly just around Crispin while Reaper and Carmine were doing some other stuff separately nearby. I think Reaper was texting Dialga. I don't remember at all what Carmine was doing. I was interested in only like one thing and it was hugs and snuggles.

I'm fairly certain that Crispin knew I was actually The Asleep Friend just using the appearance of Drayton. Why else would Drayton be exhibiting cat behavior? That is a The Asleep Friend type of thing to do. Aside from that, I was verrrry overprotective towards Crispin if any evil monster appeared, which was, a few times. I would temporarily unlock total dream manipulation whenever an evil monster appeared and just cause instant destruction if any of those things went near Crispin.

Carmine just watched in confusion every time. I don't think I've ever interacted with her in a dream before. She definitely wouldn't know me well enough to think this is anything aside from Drayton acting extremely unusual and mysteriously having overpowered magic-looking abilities. Reaper possibly knew who I was. Reaper is just chaotic like that. He would go along with it if I had shapeshifted into Drayton. So who even knows with him.

The only person other than me who has unlocked complete dream control in any of my dreams is Piers. (I had an entire dream once that vibed like it was all Piers's dream and I was just in it and Piers was having a lucid dream). Reaper is aware of that so either Reaper knows it's me or he thinks Drayton has also gained that power. Later things that happen lean more into the idea that Reaper knew it was me.

At some point in the dream, me and the rest of this little group were all relaxing on a very large bed one of us found. Reaper was having a video call with Dialga. Carmine was sitting on the edge trying to make sense of things. I think she was having a crisis over seeing Drayton actively fighting big evil monsters. Crispin hugged me and I returned the favor while purring like a cat and using him as a pillow. If Carmine wasn't disturbed before, she totally was now.

Reaper had a look of mischief and left and Carmine also left. I think she didn't want to be left alone with "cat-boy Drayton" and the guy letting "cat-boy Drayton" exist like this. What Reaper was getting up to will come into the story later.

I haven't had a snuggle comfort dream in such a long time it seems so I was not wanting that to end. But Crispin wanted to go hang out somewhere else so that had to end. I went with Crispin to a really pretty forest place. A little eerie looking like it was haunted, but that added to the beauty of the forest. There was a swamp nearby too. Very nice place.

We were just admiring the view before a heckin-- clown monster appeared. I don't have a fear of clowns so I was not any more or less concerned about it than I was about any other evil monster. Except I was unable to activate dream control in any way apart from shapeshifting slightly. So I grew kitty ears, a tail, and huge sharp claws. Then I was really cat-boy Drayton. Everything other than the claws were for my own amusement.

I fought with the clown monster using only the cat claws and my own skills. Fully prepared to do whatever I had to do to protect Crispin. In the end, me and Crispin were both taken to a clown car by this thing. Reaper appeared to make a rescue and I woke up for a couple minutes. Making a conscious choice to try not to fall back to sleep, for the purpose of my sleep schedule, but ended up falling back to sleep anyway. Only for the dream to continue where it left off, which is actually a rare occurrence.

I re-entered the dream from the point of a few minutes since I previously left. So it took into account the time I spent awake. But other than that, it continued exactly from the previous dream. I was still Drayton and I still had the cat features.

Reaper had defeated the clown monster and both he and Crispin were surprised to see me reappear after just vanishing for a few minutes. The imaginary friends know of how my dream stuff typically works. Normally, when I vanish I don't return until the next night. And if I do return before the night is over, the entire landscape changes and there's a new story. This time it was the same. How fun.

Reaper thought it was awesome because now he could do his planned mischief. Reaper took Crispin through a portal and then sent me to the guild in pokemon mystery dungeon. I was still Drayton :D

Anyhoo. I had a small argument with Bidoof before I ran to a portal to the Hidden Land. Carmine was there in the guild too and she followed me. I was just kind of naruto-running through the dungeon while holding a sword. I told Carmine she would have to keep up if she wanted to come along. I breezed through the Hidden Land and then through Temporal Tower while Carmine, surprised at "Drayton's" speed was somehow keeping up. Far behind, but keeping up.

Upon reaching the top, I saw Reaper with Dialga and Crispin. They were just sitting on the ground having a casual conversation while drinking tea and I dropped my sword, glad to not have to fight Dialga.

So Reaper's planned mischief was to stage a legendary tea party disguised as an epic rescue mission.

I join them and then Carmine, now properly flabbergasted, also comes to sit and chat with everyone. I think she has given up. I also think it's funny to imagine her later going to the imaginary friend Drayton and seeing him be normal and not knowing how to react. Imaginary friend Drayton would be gifted such a funny show I think.

I woke up briefly again but this time I went back to sleep on purpose under the assumption the dream would continue again. It did. I didn't care about my sleep schedule at that moment. I wanted to find out what happens next. Also was thinking I might stay up all night today anyway because I need to re-fix the insomnia meaning it would be fine for me to go back to sleep once more.

Carmine was of course surprised to see "Drayton" disappear and reappear. Reaper and Crispin were surprised that I was able to re-enter the same dream yet another time. (I dunno how this happened either. but. It would be fine by me if Crispin gets the idea that this was accomplished by a desperation to hang out with him. I think he still feels guilty about the thing that happened in the walmart dream and I want to reassure him he's still one of my bestest friends)(Plus I think the thing he was originally trying to do in the walmart dream that failed then is now seeing its actual intended effects considering I can remember this entire adventure. Crispin is no longer causing me to forget dreams just by being in them). Dialga didn't really know what was going on or what everyone else was so surprised about.

I don't remember a whole lot of stuff that happened after that because I should not have been asleep still and I was more prone to being disturbed by irl noises. Near the end, the clown returned and Reaper fought it again. This time using scythes instead of just his usual magic powers. Reaper doesn't often need to get serious because he's a very powerful cosmic entity creature, but if he does have to get serious, he'll fight with a combination of scythes and his usual magic. With the addition of four extra hands if he really needs all the fighting power he has access to. But it was just scythes and magic for now. Me, Crispin, and Carmine were taking shelter in a really cool ancient ruined library while Reaper was outside fighting the clown. It was all a basement. Or if there was a surface level floor, it was destroyed long ago. Ancient library ruins are cool.

I was flipping through some pages of a book, ignoring the occasional rumbling and dust falling from the ceiling from the fight outside. Carmine and Crispin would cautiously look around every time the ceiling would make noise and spill dust.

I sat down next to Crispin and we began read a book together but I woke up after getting past a few pages.

No getting back to sleep that time :(

But like- that was so much fun. What an adventure that was

This took almost 4 hours to type

I made this just to ask you a question- can you explain safely and in a healthy way what makes you desire a very specific body type? Versus otherwise very much embracing your natural femme? Its not my business. Sometimes I worry about you I guess. And I'm also just curious how you feel about it yourself.

Your last post was also very hard on your until the verrrry end. I just hope you're realizing how successful this hermitage has been and how much power is inside you. What has been setting you on fire lately? The new song sounded fucking fire and I'm so excited for it. You are a balance. You will shift and shift and sift through yourself and I believe you'll always find your footing. I want to both encourage you and reassure you that YOU and your body specifically are not the reason you're not going viral. Whether that's a thought you have or not...I addressed it just in case, lol. It's going to happen for you. I know it in my bones.

Ps. I did have an actual question. How do you have a scar removed? I suppose I never thought about it, and the interesting part of having stitches after. They don't leave a mark?

Pps. I never noticed a scar. You are the most beautiful woman that I know in real life. Js. Love u

this is extremely kind. I'm not desiring a specific body type. just striving for optimum health after a year of being extremely excessive in many ways. i appreciate your concern and the kindness. I do get hard on myself, and life feels very much day to day for me. Not sure who I'll be tomorrow. But I do LOVE what I'm making right now, even if it's all in the wobbly stage. I believe in myself more than I ever have and am working so hard on that. Some days it just doesn't happen though.

PS: the stitches barely leave any mark! and it was a scar I've had for like 8 years. It just always bothered me. haha and my goodness thank you for the compliment <3 not sure who you are but appreciate you.

Very beautiful. Verrrry powerful.

How svt member tease to rile their s/o up 😌😌

-🌙

seungcheol: definitely a sexter. you’d be sitting in class or a meeting, and he’d send little flirty texts that would just get you thinking about what’s in store for you when you come home. even just gym selfies or telling you to wear something sexy for when he picks you up on your date. stuff to get your mind working and missing him :)

jeonghan: makes you want to rail him by Implanting the idea in your head. he’d wear his sleeveless shirts, grey sweats, kiss your neck. would never explicitly say he’s being needy but would look hot enough and leave enough lingering touches that you just can’t help but cave to him when he slips a hand down your pants by the end of the night

joshua: grabbier than normal. runs an innocent hand on your ass, rubs your shoulders, squeezes your thighs… just fleeting touches that drive you crazy. he does that thing where he looks so innocent and smiles so sweetly even though his hands are wandering everywhere and his thumb is rubbing circles so high up your leg. also i feel like he would wear muscle tees and just flex all the time. and then ask “is everything ok? why are you staring?”

jun: makes you feel so wanted by flirting with you all the time. calls you sexy and whistles at you when you make eye contact with him or when you leave a room bc he’s staring at your ass. he’ll call you beautiful and kiss your head and the back of your hand and he’s being so greasy but he’s making it clear how much he wants you. and who are you to deny him?

hoshi: i feel like he’s unwittingly sexy? like he’ll show you his new choreo in the studio and is genuinely just really excited to show you, but he’s halfway through and … whew is it hot in here or just me? and if he was in the mood, he wouldn’t even be subtle about it. kisses you and sneaks his hands up your shirt, squeezes & slaps your ass when he can, bites your ear. will whine when you pull away from him. looks fucked out after one kiss and you get the idea.

wonwoo: to be fair, he doesn’t even have to try. but i think his main weapon is eye contact. you see him looking at you from across the room and he is most definitely undressing you with his eyes. you know he’s studying your curves, your smile, the print of your underwear through your tights. he’s not overt about it but his gaze is always a little heavy, like he wants you to know how much he wants you.

jihoon: definitely less flashy but more direct than the others. he’s a bit like hoshi where even just watching him work is sexy, without him knowing. but once he wants to rile you up, he makes sure you know. definitely passing whispers abt what he wants from you or just flat out direct compliments that make you blush. like wonwoo, also looks at you like he’s picturing you naked.

seokmin: verrrry affectionate. back hugs where he squeezes you oh so tight, rubbing circles into your hips. kisses all over your face that somehow trail down to your neck, your collarbones. murmured compliments against your skin about how you taste good. hands seeking the heat of your skin. just very clingy and needy.

mingyu: pulls out all the stops. definitely the type to whine until you sit in his lap during a movie or even when you’re just lying down together. and oh no! he had no idea how he got so hard! and even when you readjust yourself you hear him exhale in the crook of your neck, a bit airy because everything feels so good. he knows it gets you going when you’re aware of the size difference and also the power you have over him.

minghao: definitely .. sensually. would do something shameless like have you taste something off his finger. looks at you darkly, possessively. drags his fingers when he’s putting on your necklace before you go out and whispers lewd things in your ear. just a huge tease! teases *you* for reacting to him!

seungkwan: definitely light bickering. sometimes you do disagree but there’s nothing hotter than the sexual tension in the air when he’s teasing you for something embarrassing you did earlier and you’re just looking so mean and sexy and mad at him. loves a bit of sparring just so you can’t think of a better way to shut him up other than a kiss.

vernon: on the shier side, but i think make out sessions would really get you both going. just something about the closeness, the spontaneity, how you just melt into him. he doesnt want to be embarrassingly clear about being needy, but a little kiss turned make-out is more than enough for the both of you. definitely loves your lips and loves grabbing your chest while his mouth’s busy.

chan: not subtle. not subtle. will rub you over your underwear and ask how it feels, loves just spreading your thighs and running his hands over the soft skin. endless compliment after compliment. will bite your lips and say how hard he is, might even pull your hand and place it over his hardness just so you flush. he won’t play games when he wants you and will want to get to business asap.

Prince of Greed, Mammon the Avaricious.

Ah okay. So I decided on creating my own version of Mammon from Helluva Boss, a character who has yet to be shown in person. After seeing soooo many wonderful versions, they inspired me to create my own. I apologize in advance for the photo quality and messy sketch.

So we know that he looks like a jester, judging by the dollar (soul) bills that he’s in, as well as the carts in Loo Loo Land. So I think I’ve got that part right at least lol I did notice that he seems to have thick lines over his eyes, which could be very thick liner and shit, or maybe even...sunglasses? He is the prince of greed, so I bet he wants to be stylish? Idfk lol just a guess.

❝ I desire E V E R Y T H I N G ❞ — As for Mammon’s outfit, as the prince of greed, we can assume that he must be a businessman, right? So I decided on giving him a business suit type outfit. The top part looks like a suit of sorts, with puffy shoulder pads and sleeves. His belt I suppose (?) is held by a dollar sign, similar to the one Fizz has on his back. Though maybe the greed symbol would better suit it? And yes, he must wear boots.

❝ Money & Status ❞ — Of course being the prince of greed, his main desire is money. You can see this in the show, he does whatever it takes to make a quick buck or two, or millions. Even at the expense of ripping off his self proclaimed BFF Lucifer. Of course Mammon will deny this even though it’s painfully obvious. It is also assumed that the Greed Ring is where the money is printed, hence his mug on the soul bills. There’s also a city in the Greed ring called ‘Mint City’, so it’s a possibility that’s where it comes from. In the picture he is seen fanning himself with soul bills, while holding the ‘Legally Distinct’ letter we see in Episode 2. Oh Prince Mammon, such a generous man who I’m sure donates to orphans...

❝ Power ❞ — We haven’t seen much of him yet, but we can assume he craves power and authority. He owns a theme park, as well as ‘Greed Seeds’ cereal, Madcap Vodka and Mammon Cola (‘It’s Better than Sex’ btw). In the picture I included something from my personal head canon involving my oc Lexi. She quit working at Loo Loo Land, thus breaching her contract. Mammon was absolutely pissed, so to vent out his anger, grabs a Lexi plush and stabs it with a knife. “Let this be an example of what will happen when you betray me!” This would definitely scare a lot of his employees, and would think twice before breaching their own employment. After all Mammon might view his employees as his ‘possessions’, and losing a ‘possession’ is a big deal. If you sign a contract with the Prince of Greed, you best be willing to pay up if you breach it.

❝ Beautiful People ❞ — As the other desires, we can also assume that Mammon craves the presence of beautiful people. Being the most powerful man in the Greed Ring, he can have whatever tf he wants, even lovely company. And tbh who wouldn’t want to be showered by his affections? Rich? ✔️ Powerful? ✔️ Handsome? One could say very much so. In the above sketch, he spots Lexi, and approaches her with eagerness, hoping she will reciprocate his advances.

Back sketch — Tbh I’m not very good with sketching out the back of characters, but I tried 🙊 the only think I’m unsure of is whether the greed symbol looks good in his back. But I really like it as his belt buckle, and the dollar sign in the back. Good thing this is only a sketch and not a final product, so I might change it later on.

Apologies for the very messy sketching! I’m pretty sure I’m verrrry far off in terms of Mammon’s design, except the head probably lol but it’s fun coming up with a personal design. Whenever the real Mammon shows his face in the series, I might turn this design into an oc or something idfk 😂 we’ll see. But however he canonically looks like, all your designs are fantastic! All the Mammon designs I’ve seen have worthy designs of being canon. Please don’t be discouraged by your designs when the canon appears, BE PROUD. Just goes to show how creative you are. I was inspired by everyone, so thank you for helping me give birth to this creation of mine as well!

Unit Viability Speculation - Teatime Emmet

Emmet...has a lot going for him, my god.

Finally, we get a new Bug-type damage dealer, and Emmet is not here to mess around. Megahorn is tremendous base damage for a move, and he's able to buff his attack and defense via Swords Dance and Iron Defense.  His passives allow each use to give +1 crit, and a 30% chance for Physical Moves Up Next.  His trainer move also buffs accuracy, as well as giving a stack of physical moves up next, and supereffective up next.  That last part is verrrry significant.

See, Emmet's a striker.  At EX, he hits all foes.  And he also gets Berserker on Swords Dance, and Sharp Entry.  Meaning he can cap offenses in two moves, then use trainer move for Supereffective Up Next, and nuke.  That's really good. Having Rising Tide as his final passive is almost a nod to this; he is meant to sync nuke.

Sadly, Berserker is 3/5, so they knew this.  Thankfully, Sharp Entry is right there 2/5, as is Shielding Strikes and like...all of the powerups for Megahorn.   Really, the only things he misses at 3/5 are Tough Cookie and Berserker.  Not the worst things to miss out on.  Sure it slows down the sync nuke, and loses a multiplier on move damage, but he's otherwise riding high with a great inherent sync multiplier and some great base attack damage, with a really easy self-setup.

Partners are obvious.  Teatime Ingo gives him Bug Zone and defense debuffs, and good luck with that shit.  Outside of the obvious Ingo, any defense debuffer is welcomed, and anyone who can buff his other stats gets Rising Tide going. Unironically, Roxanne may be a good partner.  Sure, special attack doesn't directly help him, but Barricade Buddies means every trainer move is +5 overall buff to Emmet, for a total of +15.   Adding in his own +8, and Ingo's potential +4 from trainer moves, that's +27 buff stacks for his inherent sync nuke.  Otherwise, you want to focus on allies who can handle defenses or speed, depending on your needs.  Defenses are better for sync nuke, speed is better if you're relying on move damage.

But yeah, his big benefit is going to be in EX.  Rising Tide with a quick and easy 3-turn setup that boasts Supereffective Up Next is going to hit like a truck.   Emmet's very direct, but also verrrry beautiful, and verrrry powerful.

my thoughts (that nobody asked for) on the zoey’s christmas movie

what a super cute supersized zepisode!! i enjoyed it a lot. it delivered exactly the kind of cringe and laughs and tears we’ve all come to expect from this show and these characters. spoilers below the cut

the good

the songs were actually really really awesome and really well done. standouts for me were “have yourself a merry little christmas” with mitch (shot in fuzzy black and white like the old movies they’d watch together? showstopping beautiful amazing), “wish you were here” (CHILLS), “bad blood” (will never not love jane’s impeccable physical comedy), and literally everything mo sang. 

it was nice that we got to see zoey sing some heart songs! have we not been wishing for this through fanfic for ages?? it was something i was really looking forward to and i liked how they handled it.

they also didn’t shy away from putting our beloveds’ flaws on full display. FULLL display. but hey, that’s what keeps things interesting and gives characters depth! it was sweet to see zoey and max talk things out and reach an understanding with each other about why he got the powers (more on this later tho)

bernadette peters is a gift. enough said. she really helped with getting through some of the verrrry awkward moments with jack the christmas tree guy.

SIMON. confirmed bi leif!! SIMON. mckenzie and tobin!! SIMON. and mo getting his own storyline for the movie was incredible. very hard to watch at times, but WOW perry is such an amazing boyfriend and i’m so happy for them and amirah and august they’re so sweet together

oh, and the SETTINGS!! this was such a gorgeous movie all around. the bright, spacious mall. outdoors at night with lights and merry people milling about. the familiar clarke homestead. even the brief glimpse we got of sprq point (with the matching sweaters!!) was beautiful and it was so so nice to see it again. they definitely captured a great holiday-friendly vibe here and it surpassed my expectations for sure!! this made their world feel a little... i don’t know... BIGGER. lots of fun pretty settings and the gorgeous overhead shot of san fran like THANK YOU

the lines about “sweet caroline” being a Not Good song (thank youuu mo), cats eating at the dinner table (cried laughing because this is literally my grandma i shit you not), and big league chew (if ya know ya know. david had some real zingers this time around) 

the not so good

soooo. of course they can only fit so much in a couple hours, but i can’t deny that i kind of felt the absence of the coders and SIMON for most of the movie. understandably this was a clarkes-centered movie (as it should be), and understandably max will be hanging with the clarkes now (which i suppose he would be even if he and zoey were still just best friends, but i honestly can’t remember if it was mentioned on the show that he spends holidays with zoey’s family or if i read/wrote it in a fic somewhere. oh well) though it does beg the question, what about visiting his family back in new york for the holidays? not for christmas, obviously, but i was still kinda surprised we didn’t even get a mention of the richmans (?)

but anyway. god i just love simon so much and i should’ve put this up in the good section but i ADORED every second he was on screen. he knows zoey so so well and is such a wonderful friend to her and god i love him. plus, the fact that he got zoey a replacement snow globe when the old one broke and he didn’t even know it broke? AHHHH. but yeah i still wish we had more of him, though i deeply appreciate every second of him we did get.

the only debatably “weak” song, if i had to pick one, would be “call me maybe.” though it was a very amusing surprise and of course still had a gorgeous backdrop so i wasn’t mad about it. it was both interesting and frustrating to see max and zoey’s different takes on how to handle the heart song.

and on that note i might as well dive into the whole explanation for max getting the powers in the first place. (also i’m sorry but i kind of found it funny that he’s already lost them again? the timeline for this show is all kinds of wack but when all was said and done he only had them for like 2-3 weeks right? and side note: it’s been 1.5 years since zoey got her powers, i think they said? and mitch died in march 2021? idk i guess it could line up but hmmm) 

so. max and the powers. the scene where he and zoey come to a conclusion about it was very sweet, and “time after time” wasn’t half as cringey as i anticipated it to be. but, like... i’d hope that max could be a good enough partner to zoey that he wouldn’t NEED to get the powers to in order to support her? i guess for him it WAS necessary to understand what she sees/how she feels in order to be a good partner for her? i don’t think it would necessarily be that way for everybody, though, so i’m a little skeptical of the logic there. but again, this movie didn’t shy away from showing their imperfections and having them make mistakes, so hey, max is only human. i’m just the person who wrote 70k+ words of fanfic about zoey and max only to end up not being that big of a fan of them anymore. but yeah, fine, they’re cute.

(oh and i cannot believe they actually had leif say “clarkeman” whyyy)

Choosing Between Two Loves Part 5 ~ Endgame - 1

Summary: You were a Goddess named (Y/N), who had powers similar to Thor and even stronger, you joined the Avengers back when Loki had tried to take over New York. You were great friends with most of them. Tony Stark was someone you were always in love with even though you knew you could never have him. However that all changes when you get to know a certain super soldier....

“You holding up okay?” you asked Steve, he was about to shave his beard, he didn’t say anything but gave you a slight nod, what more could he do, the Avengers had lost. You guys didn’t just lose the fight but you lost half the population, some that included your friends, you weren’t sure if Tony was one of them. 

You were eating in the kitchen when you heard a rumbling sound coming closer by the second. You saw Steve run out the building, you followed quickly behind. When you walked out, you saw a space ship being lowered onto the grass by someone you hadn’t met. You didn’t let your guard down, at this point it could be one of Thanos’. You were shocked to see the person coming down the ship, it was Tony. It definitely was Tony but a more fragile and skinny one, he looked like a mess. The additional person scared you, it was Nebula, you hadn’t seen her in years. 

‘WAIT, stay right there Nebula!” you shouted at her, she never did anything to you when you were captivated but seeing her brought you back the horrible memories. “(Y/N), he is not here” Nebula assured you, “(Y/N), she saved my life” Tony added. You sighed in relief, walking over to hug him, when you pulled back you saw tears in his eyes, “I lost the kid” he whispered softly, “What? ---Parker?” you asked in disbelief, Tony nodded. 

----------------------------------

You guys were back in the compound, all gathered together, going over what had happened. 

“Tony, do you have anything?” Steve asked him, “Nope, zip, nada”, “At least something” Steve pleaded, “I don’t have ANTYHING for YOU” Tony replied, obviously getting aggravated, Here it goes you thought to yourself. “I NEEDED YOU and you weren’t there, you said we’d lose together, well guess what Rogers, we LOST and you WEREN’T THERE, SO YOU TAKE THIS” Tony said taking off his arc reactor from his chest, “AND YOU BRING IT TO HIM AND YOU RUN!” he continued to yell, next thing you knew Tony dropped straight to the floor. You quickly ran to his side to pick him up gently, “Can’t say I don’t blame him Steve” you said to him. You placed Tony in the bed, waiting for him to wake up again, you left the room to give Pepper and Rhodey some privacy with him.

“Thanos did exactly what he said he would do” Nat explained to you guys in the meeting. You couldn’t believe it, at least this time half of the universe lived, unlike your world which was completely destroyed by Thanos. The girl who had brought the spaceship was named Captain Marvel aka Carol, she claimed she knew people who might know where Thanos was. “Don’t bother, I know where my father is” Nebula said, she explained where he always planned on residing once he had accomplished his mission. You and Thor looked at each other, you knew you had to go immediately, most of the team did. 

--------------------------------------

“Raise you hand if you’ve never been to space?” the racoon named Rocket asked, about four of the team raised their hands, “I haven’t been there in a while” you commented, “Okay, don’t throw up on my spaceship” Rocket stated. You turned to look at Thor, smiling greatly at him, “We got this” you said to him, you were glad to have your best friend back.

When you guys arrived, Carol got out to check the area to see if Thanos had an army, she gave you the green light saying that it was only him. “Then that is enough” Nebula said, you nodded in agreement, you were terrified to face Thanos again.

---------------------------------------

You guys walked up to a small cabin, you could hear someone moving around the home. You and Thor walked in behind Nat and Steve, Thor had his storm breaker ready, you had your sword wielded too.

Thanos explained that he had destroyed the stones, he smiled seeing you, seeing chills run down your spine, “I’m not surprised you survived (Y/N), you were always a warrior, created as the best by the gods” he commented, you walked up closer to look him in the eye, “WHERE ARE THE STONES?” you gritted through your teeth, “Like I said, I destroyed them, it nearly killed me”. You took a step back, “My father could be many things but a liar is not one of them” Nebula said. Next thing you knew, Thanos’ head rolled onto your feet, blood splattered on your face, “Sorry (Y/N)” Thor apologized, using his cape to clean your face and then his storm breaker, “It’s okay, you did what I should’ve done a long time ago” you replied. 

FIVE YEARS LATER

Life had been different, very slow. You guys had failed in fighting Thanos and failed again in trying to find the stones. Tony and Pepper had gotten married and had a beautiful daughter named Morgan, you made sure to visit them every month, she called you auntie (Y/N). Thor and you had kept in touch as well, after the incident with Thanos, Thor fell into a deep depression, he practically fell off the grid, you didn’t blame him. In the meantime, the rest of the Avengers and you tried your best to follow any leads, you read constantly about anything science related that could help, it had all been a bust so far until one evening. 

You were in the gym, working out your frustrations, when you heard Nat call you on the intercom to come into the kitchen. You walked in to see Scott Lang, you were surprised since you heard the rumors that he had blipped. He was rambling about where he had been stuck in, talking about being able to maybe travel time. “Anyone know anything about quantum physics?” he asked while stuffing his face with a peanut butter sandwich. You raised your hand while Steve shook his head and Nat said, “Only to make conversation”. Scott and you explained everything you could about quantum physics, “I think we know who we can talk to about this” Steve said turning to you, “I don’t know Steve” you replied, you didn’t want to bring Tony into this, not after he is finally living in peace. 

-----------------------------

You guys were driving over to Tony’s, Scott was in the backseat with you. “Not to sound rude but I was surprised at how much you knew about this stuff” he said to you cautiously. You smiled at him, “I know, what is an 1200 year old goddess supposed to know about this right? I’ve been a friend of the Starks’ for a verrrry long time, I enjoyed learning as much as I could, science really grabs my attention, and when you knew engineers, well it’s not hard not to learn a thing or two. Before all this happened, Banner, Stark and I would usually be cooped up in the lab” you explained. 

You guys finally arrived at Tony and Pepper’s home. You got out of the car to see Tony holding Morgan, she immediately got out of his arms when she spotted you, “Auntie (Y/N)!!!!” she yelled as she ran into your arms. “Hey baby Stark, how are you?” you asked her, giving her a kiss on her temple. You picked her up to take her inside to say hi to Pepper while Nat, Steve, and Scott explained to Tony about the plan, you didn’t want to be a part of it since you knew it was a huge risk. 

“(Y/N)! What a lovely surprise, we were just about to make lunch” Pepper said while giving you a kiss on your cheek. You explained to Pepper about what was going on, she sent Morgan out to get her dad to come inside to eat. “Any new suitors?” Pepper teasingly asked you in the meantime, “I don’t think that will ever happen, no one here lives long enough” you chuckled, “Well you always have Thor” she joked, “He’s my best FRIEND, that would be too weird” you laughed. You guys talked for a bit until you heard Nat call you over to leave. You said your goodbyes and headed back to the compound. You understood why Tony had declined, he had too much to lose.

You have no idea how much I love Cyric. At all. He was the most fun to make. He's literally based off of my three most favorite insane and lovable characters. I just love people like him they're so interesting ;; anyways

Here:

Is not a professor at Night Raven, he is a Mechanics professor from HooksClave and is mostly known for his outlandish demeanor, insane class discussions, and how he annoys the rest of his co-workers

Is also the facilitator for the computer club

Cyric has sharp everything. Sharp nails, sharp teeth, even his spiky hair can be sharp when he wants it to be

yEs he has a crocodile form,either full form or half-human form, just doesn’t like the feeling of slithering around on two hind legs

The scales on his face are really smooth and shiny, he cleans that shit to the max

Cannot feel pain. At all. Break his arm and he won’t be fazed, he’ll spin the goddamn thing around like a lunatic

Reason why will be revealed in the oc pasts series uwu

“Ohhh! Look how it spins like a nun-chuck!! Wheeeeeeee!!!”

Is very flexible, can dislocate any of his arms at will

NOt being able to feel pain does has it’s quirks, he can experiment on himself, he can be underwater as long as he pleases, and he can scare and unsettle the shit out of his co-workers :)

Actually has long hair, he works around machines a lot so the electricity just sends his hair skyward

Makes the best contraptions and inventions, and is very good with technology and machines

Actually went to Light Dove College! As dorm leader, so he’s best friends with Jesse and Lillet

Very giggly, often likes to speak in riddles and gibberish

Most people find him intimidating or scary, but no yall he’s just severely mentally damaged please protect this man he is very soft and hurt- (will be revealed in past series)

Has a very nice laugh, like one of those loud, maniacal laughs that just sound so beautiful

Is verrrry blunt, will tell you that you’ve had spinach in your teeth for the past hour in front of everybody and won’t realize how embarrassed you’ll be until someone tells him

Most favorite person to freak out is Divus, he doesn’t even have to do anything, he just has to be there

Divus is scared shitless of him

“Jesse you piece of hell shit what are you-”

“Hi :)”

“oH FUCK-”

Akna and Jesse often bring Cyric into their little schemes to prank Divus and literally everyone else in the staff

Please don’t put them in the same room, they have the same sick twisted mind and will find a way to ruin your day in like...2 seconds

Very intelligent and powerful. He’s just masking it with his ‘stupidity’ and ‘insanity’

Now, to conclude this post:

Okay bye

Tales from the DM

Saturdays now are the bane of,my existance as we as the day I look forward to most. My party members are a rag tag bunch that are interested in everything and nearly got themselves attached to a demon that was part of a demon staff used by a drow matron. The innocent druid was verrrry interested amd he already has an on I interested in his ass.

Then the bard is well.... A very suave bard who has an affinity for beautiful people (which is bloody EVERYONE WITH LEGS!). Had to actually tell him to tone it back a bit because the *fade to black* was becoming less faded.

Last session, our fighter had a family emergency and I scaled an encounter to her being there so needless to say they struggled hardcore and the paladin went down. Foetunetly, i already planned for a warlock to come in and help. And i finally had an excuse to use my favorite spell of all time- power word kill.

Evil Overlords Have Feelings Too - Part 3

by Jenifer Irwin Part 3 "Hahaaa! I won again! Well, sort of," Robotnik said as he rode along in the pod on the Steel Snake's back. Arashi, sitting next to him, smirked slightly. "Well, he probably lost a lot more valuable equipment than you did, so I'd say you won."

"Plus, I've got the Chaos Emeralds... I really could have used these BEFORE I took over the world. Urh. Now, the only problem left is finding a suitable place to rebuild a base..." Arashi smiled slightly and turned to pet the chao that were sitting behind the seats. The little creatures were so cute, especially Devlin the Devil Chao. For all his diabolical appearance, he was still just an innocent little baby-like creature, toddling around looking for food. I'm really proud of him, Arashi thought as she glanced up at Robotnik briefly. And really glad that I met him. Life has never been so fun and adventurous. Plus, I never thought I would get to witness him personally ending Sonic's life. With me having betrayed Sonic! Hah! Ah, my hero... He had been concentrating on flying the Steel Snake, whose movement was controlled by his mind alone, when he glanced casually at Arashi. The look on her face, it was... AUGH. The ship lurched to the side, rocking violently, a manifestation of the doctor's inner reaction. Four chao were thrown into the wall and Arashi gasped as she was jerked sideways in her restraining harness. Robotnik quickly stared straight ahead again, bringing the ship under control. Great. Just great, Robotnik thought to himself. Somehow I knew this was going to happen. I think it was there from the start. But I definitely knew when she darn near kissed me back there at the ruins of the base... I'm too fat, too ugly to be attractive, right!? Well, like I told Takar... just being diabolical has a certain charm to it... but I can't let feelings get in the way of my work. He glanced carefully over at her so she didn't notice. She was too busy calming the chao down. ...can I? He shook his head suddenly at his own thought, then masked the apparently reasonless motion by sneezing violently. Arashi looked up, blinking. "Getting a cold?" she asked, snickering slightly. "Nah," Robotnik replied. "Dust in my nose." He sniffed slightly. No way. I can't let people know I have too many feelings. Just isn't me. I have to keep that nasty, heartless image that Sega gave me. Right? He was approaching a city. Glad of this, he growled to himself as he struggled with his thoughts, and blew up the nearest building. Arashi glanced at the cloud of dust that resulted, metal flying everywhere, and wondered what he was doing. "Yes! Boom! Explosions! Scrap metal! I am evil! Verrrry evil!" Robotnik seemed almost in his own little world as he continued to shoot rockets into buildings, watching with a strange glee as they exploded all over the place. "I'm hungry," he said suddenly after about 6 places exploded, and descended towards the streets. The Steel Snake weaved its way through the city, frightening people in their cars and causing sirens to blare. The police didn't dare touch him, though--after all, he was Emperor Ivo Robotnik. Hearing the sirens, a McDonald's employee glanced out a window, just as the wall opposite of that window burst in, bricks collapsing to the ground and dust flying up as a giant, silvery, robotic snake slithered in through the huge hole. Workers and customers alike screamed and trembled, some frozen, some running out of the restaurant and away. The pod flipped open and Ivo Robotnik vaulted out, dropping to the ground, Arashi Codiv jumping out with four chao in her arms. "Aherm, twenty Big Macs, twenty super-size fries, a large Dr Pepper, a large Mountain Dew, and four happy meals with small Dr Peppers, for here. And, of course, free," Robotnik said. He casually drew his laser gun, holding it down at his side as he shifted his weight to one leg, fist on hip. "U-uhh... s-sir, w-we don't s-serve those d-drinks..." Robotnik pondered. "Now let's see, I forgot how to work the safety on this..." He fiddled with the laser gun, one finger precariously gripping the trigger. The cashier gulped loudly and said, "Uh, I'll... be right back, I'm going to go rob another restaurant and bring you your drinks! Very quickly!" He ran away with speed that could impress even Sonic. Adrenaline can do funny things to people. The fear-inspiring customers took a seat at a large booth, waiting for their food. It was delivered to them quickly. The chao were given their happy meals, and the 20 pairs of big macs and fries sat on the table before Arashi and Robotnik. He gestured to them, saying, "Take what you can eat." She moved just one big mac and fries over. Gladly, Robotnik took the rest, scarfing it all down with disturbing ferocity. By the time Arashi was finished with her food, Robotnik was too. Which was frightening, considering he was eating 19 times more than she was. Customers and employees stared, jaws dropping. Robotnik looked up, acting quite annoyed, though he loved the attention. "What? I'm having LUNCH, for crying out loud." He brandished the laser gun, practically giggling inwardly as he watched them all force themselves to pretend to be overly interested in something else. Even after they all looked away, the tension in the air was so thick you could cut it with a knife. The chao were playing happily with the toys they got from their happy meals when one of them broke. Balor, the one who had the broken toy, started to cry. Robotnik grinned across the table at Arashi and got up, approaching the cashiers, who went pale and started trembling in fear. Oh, how he loved having that effect on people. It gave him chills. He leaned casually on one of the registers and said, "You know what to do, right?" With quick, frantic movements, the cashier produced every toy they had in the restaurant, shoving them all across the counter. Robotnik gestured to the four chao to come over, and they skipped over gleefully, picking out the toys they wanted. He snickered to himself and grinned over at Arashi. Arashi had to do a double-take. The grin was almost... goofy. Like a teenager who just thoroughly impressed his girlfriend and is practically intoxicated from the victory. She gave him a slightly bizarre look, and he realized... Gaahhhh! What am I doing!? Coughing suddenly, Robotnik resumed his gruff, nasty demeanor and gestured with the laser gun at the toys. "Yeah, that's it, take lots of'em," he said to the chao. Getting a power high, Robotnik decided to terrorize more people as he ambled from table to table, looking down at the trembling customers who sat in booths or chairs. He snarled unexpectedly at a little boy, sending him running away crying in fear. Another person had to give up all of his money or be shot. Arashi noticed there were police cars sitting outside, but the policemen stood next to their cars, looking just as scared as everyone else. Everybody knew. Everybody knew that this was Emperor Robotnik. Everybody knew that you do not mess with Emperor Robotnik. Dozens of people trembled in his presence as he demanded money from random people. Nobody was hurt, but lots of people went broke that day. Robotnik smiled pleasantly and approached the Steel Snake as Arashi gathered up the four chao and hopped in. Turning back to the crowd, Robotnik silently slid a plate back on the laser gun, exposing the battery chamber. Nothing was in it. He had held them all at gunpoint, threatening and robbing them, with an unloaded gun. When they all realized this, he could see the disbelief and despair on their faces, and he laughed maniacally before hopping into the Steel Snake and heading out. Arashi grinned as they flew above the city and eventually away from it, just cruising along. There was no real direction to their travel, because Robotnik couldn't stop laughing. His laugh wasn't the severely masculine, deep, diabolical one that he usually used, it was an almost drunk half-giggle. He was completely high to the point of insanity on ego and power, and loving every second of it. It was infectious; soon, Arashi joined in the laughter. Ah, yes, nothing like a couple of mad scientists laughing crazily as they soar over the plains on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Very suddenly, Robotnik stopped laughing, his jaw dropping as he stared straight ahead at something in the distance. Arashi looked at him in alarm, following his gaze. What was... oh, no... something racing through the high grasses with such speeds as to set them on fire... something spiky... something blue... ** (30 minutes ago, in Takar's secret Earth-based lab) "Yes... yes, that's it... Right... go on, computer, you can figure this out, I know you can..." Takar urged the supercomputer on as it crunched numbers, furiously scanning the ash samples for data. He watched the screen hopefully, desperately. "YES! YES! I LOVE you, computer! I love you, Windows XP! You're so good to me! Well, usually!" The DNA data for both Sonic and Tails was coming up, clear as day, no pieces missing. Takar grinned evilly. "Time to give you two a bit of a boost." The alien walked up to the strange device that he had created, which had a large door on one side and a funnel on the other. He cut his finger slightly, squeezing a few drops of purple blood into the funnel, and sealed the wound with his regenerative powers. Sitting back down at the computer, he typed a few things in at a furious pace, watching as some diagrams and 3-D renditions of Sonic and Tails changed and shifted. Tails became a bit leaner, Sonic a bit taller. Sonic's eyes glowed an even more vibrant green than they did before, almost a glow-in-the-dark quality coming to them, and Tails' blue eyes started glowing oddly too. A few checks over the data, and Takar saved his file. He clicked the 'compile and run' button, then sat back and waited. The big device with the door churned and shuddered, and after about 5 minutes, Sonic spilled out of the door, looking quite surprised. Tails soon followed while the hedgehog was still trying to accustom himself to being alive again. "What the heck!?" were Sonic's first words. He glanced up to see Takar and the lab, becoming alarmed for a moment. Then he realized that this was probably someone from the same band of aliens that brought him back to life from a corpse with a resurrection beam before. "Welcome back to life," Takar said, grinning. "I'm Takar, Ykrian Leader. Would you like to get back at Robotnik? I've... enhanced you two a bit. I'm sure once you go out and start doing things, you'll find out what I mean." He leaned back in his chair, smiling smugly and quite willing to allow Sonic and Tails do all the dirty work for him. Sonic stood up, panting slightly, and glanced at Tails. "Hey, you shrunk. And you lost weight." "I think you grew, Sonic..." The two glanced at each other uncertainly, noting the odd quality of their eyes and the slight change in physical appearance. Suddenly, Sonic remembered his main goal and said, "Time to go kick some butt! Thanks, green dude!" With that, he raced towards the door, Tails on his heels. "Wait!" Takar yelled. Sonic stopped and turned towards him, raising an eyebrow. "Dr. Robotnik has all seven chaos emeralds... so watch out." "Okay, Tails," Sonic said, turning to the fox. "You find a way to build another Tornado, and wait here. I'll get the chaos emeralds away from Eggman, and then I'll come back so we can power the new ship. You don't mind if Tails uses some spare parts of yours for it, do you, Takar?" "Anything... and I mean anything, to rid the world of Ivo Robotnik." Tails nodded, then happily ran over to a pile of stuff to start his building. Feeling a little different, thus slightly unsure of himself, Sonic emerged from the underground lab and jogged in place for a moment. He started to run at about 20 miles an hour. He gradually picked up speed, arms and legs moving quickly as he became more accustomed to his form. Within moments he was moving faster than the speed of sound. It didn't seem like it, though. He wasn't having to strain like he used to to do this. Quirking his mouth slightly in thought, he decided to really open up and give it everything he had. With reflexes even faster before and a strange hyper-awareness to any obstacles that he had to clear, Sonic blazed through a forest, literally running across the surface of a large lake, sending a huge column of water rising up behind him. He began to feel out of control as no matter hard he tried to exhaust himself, he just kept accelerating. The skin on his face was pulled on by the air that rushed past him, pulling the corners of his mouth back. His legs were moving so fast that their entire range of motion was like a solid entity. Instead of jumping that next log, he ran right into it, his legs sawing it in half like a knife through warm butter. Forgetting the fact that he might be out of control, Sonic just watched the scenery blur past him, exhilarated. He had never experienced speed like this before, even in his super and hyper forms. And he wasn't even breathing hard. Occasionally, he squinted at something in the distance, and found that his vision 'zoomed in' on it, but his hearing and sense of touch slightly diminished when that occurred. When he stopped squinting, everything went back to normal. Listening closely to the wind, the sound was amplified as his sight dimmed slightly... odd... Sawing through a boulder and a few more logs, Sonic suddenly blazed out onto a plain, setting the grasses on fire as he moved over them like a bolt of lightning. Accelerating with every step, he continued on. When he saw the Steel Snake, he gasped, and jerked his feet out in front of him to bring himself to a stop, creating some long ruts in the ground, but he managed. He looked up to see Robotnik lean out of the side of the pod, aiming a laser gun at his head. I am NOT going to die a THIRD time like this! It is just getting old for both me AND the readers! Sonic screamed to himself. He tried to dodge, but the laser caught him in the head anyway, searing through it. Oddly enough, he felt the pain. He was still alive. How!? However, he tried to make it look like it did work, and slumped to the ground, limp. Oh, it hurt. It hurt bad. But he had to stay still and expressionless. Robotnik stopped the Snake nearby and jumped out, carefully approaching the hedgehog with laser gun drawn. He noticed Sonic was, at the least, unconscious, and watched him carefully for a moment. He wasn't breathing, either. Lifting one of Sonic's wrists, Robotnik felt carefully for a pulse. There was none. Laughing, Robotnik yelled to Arashi, "Again, the hedgehog falls to my laser!" He pulled Sonic out of the ground and threw him in the cargo bay of the Steel Snake, then hopped into the pod and flew off. Inside the cargo bay, Sonic lay wondering. He really could play dead. His heart and breathing stopped just as he thought it would be nice for them to do so, when Robotnik approached him. Takar really did infuse him with some interesting new abilities, including the night vision that he was experiencing right now. He glanced around inside the dark compartment, jaw dropping when his eyes landed on the seven chaos emeralds, all in a plastic grocery bag, along with a supply of rings. Robotnik snickered to himself as he drove along, giving Arashi a smug glance now and then. This continued for a few minutes until he seemed to feel something... a large amount of energy... and the cargo door burst open as Super Sonic flew out of it, cackling. "What the!? You're DEAD, Sonic! This is impossible!" Robotnik yelled in surprise, watching as the golden hedgehog soared through the air briefly, then started trying to smash the Snake's jets off. Quickly, the jets retracted into the snake's body, as did the pod, and it just coiled up tightly like an armadillo and hovered there in the air with gravity reversal energy, all the attacks bouncing off the high-quality rubber-steel. This continued for quite a while as Sonic's urge to break something stayed with him, but eventually he came to his senses and realized it wasn't going to work. Dropping to the ground, he sped off back towards where Takar's lab was. Robotnik and Arashi remained concealed in the snake's back, with the evil genius using the senses of the snake to realize that Sonic had run away. As the jets and the pod re-emerged from the giant serpentine robot, the occupants were startled to see and hear the entire world shake violently for a moment, and a brilliant blast of multicolored energy emitted from somewhere in the distance. Looking up, the Steel Snake trained its advanced sensors in on a small object that was flying through the air. It was the blue chaos emerald! The pod lid flipped open and Robotnik quickly pulled off his racing harness, standing up and watching the emerald intently. As it neared, he maneuvered the Snake into position, then raised a hand slowly--catching the emerald expertly in a baseball glove. Sitting down, he wondered how this could have happened. Arashi asked, "Where did you get the glove?" "Oh, don't worry about the technicalities, this is a cartoon, after all," Robotnik said, then flipped down the pod lid, put his harness back on and headed in the direction that Sonic ran. Finding Sonic was easy--his speed had burned a path of charred grass through the plain, and eventually into a deep forest, out onto another plain where trees dotted the landscape. At a certain point, near an oddly-placed arrangement of boulders, giant ruts had been carved into the earth by two high-speed feet, then the grass was pressed flat by what had to have been high-speed winds from something. About 2 miles away from the ruts in the same direction that they were traveling, there was Sonic... wrapped around a tree and quite dead. Robotnik laughed so hard that he had to land the Snake to keep from crashing it. ** It took all of Robotnik and Arashi's strength to pull Sonic off of the tree. Robotnik eventually deduced, from the length of the ruts and the fact that a trapdoor was smack dab in the middle of the boulder arrangement, that Sonic had tried to stop near the boulders but couldn't. He must have run out of rings by that point, and reverted to his true form, with his enhanced speed, plus the augmentation to it from his hyper form, not allowing him to stop quite like he predicted. When he tried to stop, he must have caused the ruts, then knowing that wasn't going to do it, he accidentally flailed in such a way as to catch air, then have a fatal meeting with the kindly tree that managed to help him stop. The impact sent the emeralds flying, and judging from the speed of the blue one, they flew pretty far. How can you get that much information out of some burnt grass, ruts, flat grass, and a dead hedgehog stuck to a tree? Well, give me a break, Robotnik's IQ is 600 for crying out loud, he must know SOMETHING about forensic science. ** In Takar's secret lab, Tails and the Ykrian leader wondered what the heck had caused the earth to shake like it did. Tails decided to investigate, and made his way to the surface, immediately noticing the ruts in the ground. As he was looking around, something slammed into his head. Hard. Everything went black. A few minutes later, noticing that Tails was gone longer than he said he would be, Takar went to the surface as well, finding the two-tailed fox collapsed on the ground next to a red chaos emerald. Judging from where the wound was and where the emerald was, it must have fallen from the sky and struck him. The alien leader dragged Tails into the lab, taking the chaos emerald with them, and put it in the Tornado II, which was the original purpose of collecting at least one of the emeralds. He tested out the vehicle briefly, making sure it worked, and then set to reviving Tails. ** Robotnik pondered. I wonder where would be a place that's nice and secure, but looks good too... and is quiet, and where nobody would think to go... He pulled something resembling a permanently fixed laptop out of a panel in front of him, tapping a few things on the keys and searching for something. "Let's see, now, I could program it to use its sensors to..." Typing furiously as his idea formulated, he finished the code in just a few minutes as the Steel Snake hovered in the air. Arashi watched, knowing exactly what he was doing as she saw the code fly across the screen, and soon the Snake was moving again, probing with its senses as it searched. The pod on the Snake's back sank down into its body and steel plates moved to cover it up, concealing the pod entirely. Robotnik flicked on a light, and inside of the Snake, the environment was almost surreal. A constant, vibrating hum permeated the air, but it was otherwise silent. "Don't want the force of dirt pressing against this thing to snap it off or pop it open," he explained, concentrating. Pulling a small container of something out of a glove compartment, he handed it to Arashi. "Drink that. It'll help you keep from throwing up." He handed four smaller containers to the chao as well, then drank one of his own. Arashi looked at him dubiously. "You're not going to do what you did when we were fighting the UFOs, are you?" "Gonna do worse," he said matter-of-factly, waiting a few moments for whatever the liquid was to kick in. Everybody got an odd tingling in their stomach, and Robotnik pulled several straps out of the seats and walls. He strapped the chao firmly to the back wall, telling them not to worry as he looked at the wide-eyed, confused expressions, then secured Arashi's head to the back of her seat with a strap around her forehead. Pulling a last strap around his own head, he took a deep breath and started concentrating again. A rabbit screeched and leaped away as a giant metal thing slammed into the ground nearby. The Steel Snake's nose penetrated several feet into the earth, and it pushed downward as its entire body started to spin madly, drilling through the ground. It disappeared within seconds, leaving the rabbit dashing frantically over rumbling grasses. Inside the pod, it was utter chaos. All six occupants were screaming, perhaps in fear, perhaps in confusion, perhaps just for the heck of it, as the Snake spun on its axis at blurring speeds, the centrifugal force seeming to try to pull everyone in all directions at once. "AAAaaAAAaaaaAAAAaaaaAAAAAAAGHHHHH!" Robotnik had rather underestimated the power of the Steel Snake, and he was screaming the loudest, being the only one that finally, truly understood just how powerful it could be. Down, down the Snake went, drilling over 1000 feet into the ground, before it finally exited in a giant underground cavern, above a huge lake. Another 3000 or so feet it fell, until it splashed into the water, sinking to the bottom. It took several moments for the two to come to their senses as they sat there blinking, and finally, Robotnik looked over at Arashi. "That was COOL," was all he could say. The Steel Snake slithered out of the water and came to rest coiled up nearby. The pod rose out of its back and Robotnik grinned slightly as he and Arashi got out. Looking over at her, he knew he'd picked the right place. She stared around in awe, practically staggering, as she looked at the interior of the cavern. Thousands upon thousands, even millions, of tiny gems were encrusted on the walls, covering them, sparkling brilliantly. Every turn of the head produced a new look to them as some light that shined down through the hole in the ceiling reflected off the lake, bouncing dim light onto the crystals and giving it a surreal atmosphere. "Wow... wow," Arashi said, blinking. While he couldn't reciprocate on the occasions that she hugged him, Robotnik could at least build his next base in the most beautiful cavern in the world to make her happy. He glanced around, quite impressed with it himself, and thought about how exactly he was going to design the new base. Airborne, underwater, affixed to the walls or ceiling? Maybe even the floor? Perhaps a base that ran a ring around the lake on the floor? There were so many possibilities. But it had to be secure, not easy to access the inside, and big. Though, why keep everything in one building and risk it all being destroyed at once again in the event that someone started blowing up his stuff? He decided on a central control point--built in the center of the lake with bridges on all four sides to lead to its shores--and various bunkers in the water and around the lake. There would be underwater tunnels to lead from one building to the other. Now, where to get the materials. "Arashi, can I have your backpack?" ** Using the materials that he could find within the unknown recesses of Arashi's backpack (women can put lots of stuff in their chosen containers), Robotnik began to build. Arashi sat on a boulder near the edge of the lake, watching in blatant admiration along with the four chao as Ivo walked across and climbed on beams, every movement easy, flawless and familiar to him as he worked on the huge central building. It took shape into a giant fortress of steel, running underwater where the doctor used an oxygen tank to sustain himself while he built down there. The bridges were placed, and more bunkers scattered about, and finally, after 12 straight hours of work, it was all finished. A giant, transparent, protective dome was placed around the entire area, and the hole that had been created by the Steel Snake was turned into a metal shaft with dozens of doors so that getting through it would be difficult for any outsider. Lights were installed in a ring at the edges of the cavern to make seeing easier, and the place was, all in all, awesome. Total, the base had 250 rooms, with reinforced steel walls 10 feet thick. Most of the rooms would never be seen again, but it's pretty cool to be able to say you've got them. Probably only the kitchen, living room, lab, bedrooms, bathrooms and bunkers would ever really be used. Walking up to Arashi and flipping a wrench in one hand, backpack in the other, Robotnik gestured grandly. "Behold, the new Robotnik Fortress! Muahahaha!" He grinned, handing the backpack to her, and she jumped up from the rock. "Let's go in!" The Steel Snake followed the humans and chao into the base, settling down in its new lab. Robotnik showed Arashi around to all the new and improved stuff... more candy dispensers on the walls, an endless supply of Mountain Dew for her and Dr Pepper for him, a bigger refrigerator, automatically flushing toilets, beds with ALL of the neat features you see on commercials for really good ones, the works. When the tour was done, the two went into the lab. Robotnik opened the cargo hold on the Steel Snake and pulled out a very dead Sonic. "There's only one way I'm going to be able to keep you from coming back to life, or being brought back to life by aliens, or whatnot, Sonic..." Arashi watched in disbelief as Robotnik carried Sonic out of the lab and headed to the kitchen. She followed along, confused, wondering what crazy thing he was going to do next. Once in the kitchen, Robotnik stuffed Sonic into the funnel of the new microwave-pill-maker thing he made. Turning it on, he watched the machine groan and shake, churning as it processed the hedgehog into a small blue pill that clattered into the change-slot-like compartment. Robotnik picked up the pill, grinning evilly. "You're not gonna," Arashi said, disbelievingly, as the doctor picked up a glass of water. "And why not?" he asked, popping the pill in his mouth and washing it down in a single gulp of water. Arashi couldn't help but start laughing hysterically. "Hahahaha! Haha! I never thought I'd see you EAT Sonic!" She fell against a wall, laughing. "Mmh. Tastes like chicken," Robotnik joked, staring at the ceiling in a moment of thought. He set the glass of water down, knowing that there was no way Sonic could be brought back to life unless he himself were captured or killed before his body absorbed the pill's contents. He decided to stay in the base for a while so it could do just that. After a few hours, they would go out to find the other chaos emeralds. ** Robotnik was performing some upgrades on the Steel Snake, making it faster and with bigger rockets. Arashi sat nearby, petting the chao that sat in her lap as she watched the mad scientist work. "The energy that these chaos emeralds give off can help me locate the other ones as long as I have this one," Robotnik explained. He held up the brilliant gem, which sparkled blue in the light of the room. Even though it was blue--and most blue things reminded him of his adversary--it was a thing of wonder and beauty. Becoming distracted, the doctor stared into its depths for quite some time, mesmerized. I never noticed how beautiful these were, he thought to himself. In fact, I never really did notice any beauty in life until... Snapping back to reality, he glanced over at Arashi for a split second, then turned back to his work. Noticing the glance, Arashi grinned slightly, then set the chao aside and stood up, wandering over to Robotnik and watching what he was doing for several minutes. The jets were getting an upgrade, and he worked on each of them in turn. He was quite aware of her watching him the entire time, but didn't really make moves to acknowledge it. Deciding to take a small break, Robotnik wandered over to one of the many wall-refrigerators in the base, pulling out two cans--one of Dr Pepper and one of Mountain Dew--handing the second to Arashi. Snapping the Dr Pepper open, he started to take a drink. This was the second she'd been waiting for. "So, when should we get married?" Arashi asked abruptly. Though all she was doing was trying to get a funny reaction from him in the first place, Arashi realized she shouldn't have stood in front of him. He twitched suddenly, making a shocked *snrk* sound, then choked violently on his Dr Pepper and ended up spitting it all over her, dropping the can too. As he leaned against the wall coughing and gasping for breath, Arashi practically fell down laughing. "That... wasn't funny," Robotnik said as he pointed at her, trying to catch his breath, but he couldn't help but grin in amusement. "Not funny at all..." He started laughing. I've really got to find a way to get back at her with some pranks of my own, Robotnik thought to himself as he passed by her, giving her a slightly mischievous grin. As he went back to work on the Steel Snake, a cleaning robot automatically came out and mopped the Dr Pepper off the floor, disposing of the can as well, and Arashi headed for the shower room. As he worked, Robotnik started humming his theme song. A few bolts here, a plate there... "I love playin' this game by my rules... I will con-quer the world with mah tools..." By now, he'd left humming for singing the song. A few new circuit boards placed in the pod for homing missiles... "I am the en-em-y! I will succeed! My missions, yeah, I muu-ust complete! My name is Eggman, don't forget mah name--if ya ask me again, I'll show you the same!" It was pretty funny for him use a socket wrench as a microphone. Especially to Arashi, who started applauding, grinning in amusement. Startled, Robotnik whirled around. "Wha!?" Then he turned a deep shade of red. She'd seen the whole thing, hadn't she? "Uh... hrph... you shower fast," he muttered, coughing, and went soberly back to work. One thing was for sure, there was rarely a dull moment since she showed up in his base for the first time. He thought back to when she wasn't there, when he was awfully lonely... Even raising chao just didn't do enough for him, and before he'd started doing that, he was incredibly lonely. It would have been bad form to go out searching for someone, though. Evil Overlords just don't do that, unless they do it in such a way as to strike terror into their target, but he did that to everyone else already, so what would be the point? The point is... I have too many feelings! "Argh!" Robotnik pounded on the side of the Steel Snake with his the heels of his hands suddenly, looking frustrated, as if trying to compose himself. Arashi glanced over, taking a sip of Mountain Dew. "Something wrong?" "Nothing. My Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is acting up again," he lied, then walked away from the Snake and sat down at a lab control panel several feet away, sighing. Poor guy, Arashi thought as she looked at him. He's got real problems dealing with his emotions. She sighed and walked over to Robotnik. "Ivo, this is the price you pay for wanting more publicity," she said as she walked up behind him, putting her hands on his shoulders. "You wanted them to see the real Ivo Robotnik, right? Well, you're not letting them the way you're going!" Robotnik sighed in resignation. "Could you bring me a Dr Pepper, please?" "Sure thing," Arashi said, smiling slightly, and went over to the soda machine in the wall. ** "Alright," Robotnik said, flipping a wrench in his hand triumphantly, "It's finished! And now we can track down the rest of the chaos emeralds!" He jumped into the seat, followed by Arashi, and they took off out of the underground cavern at a blistering speed. When the resulting g-forces crushed the two to the point that Arashi appeared to lose all physical hints of being female and Robotnik became thin, he realized that was a little too much speed at once, and slowed the craft down. All went back to normal, but both riders' ribcages felt awful sore. Surprisingly, the nearest source of chaos energy didn't seem to be very far away. The Steel Snake soared through the air easily, towards Takar's secret lab. Robotnik hadn't investigated it when he first saw it because he wanted to get rid of Sonic completely first. As the two world leaders headed over the forest, they saw something in the distance as they heard propellers spinning... ** Tails was still a little dizzy, but he'd be alright in an hour or two. Takar seemed to dote over him like a loving parent would a child, getting him food and water immediately as he woke up, and making him as comfortable as possible. Obviously, the alien wanted to keep his anti-Robotnik weapons in as good of shape as he could. As soon as Tails was feeling his best, he hopped in his new ship and headed out, thanking Takar for his help. He started getting readings from another emerald as soon as he scanned for them... and it was quite nearby. "Tornado transformation!" the fox yelled in such a corny manner as his vehicle went from ground to air, turning into a biplane, and he headed off in the direction of where the readings were coming from. Almost as soon as he got out over the forest, he saw the glint of sunlight off of something shiny... ** "TAILS!" Robotnik yelled, cackling briefly. "How nice of you to come right to me!" The Steel Snake sped up, heading towards the biplane at incredible speed. As Tails realized what it was that was coming into view, his ears pressed flat against his head in fear, remembering what that thing did to him... He decided he was going to need Takar's help, and turned around to get out of there, but the plane wasn't fast enough. The Steel Snake quickly came up beside the biplane, grabbing it with a strong robotic arm that extended out from behind a scale-plate. The pod lid flipped open, and Robotnik leaned out, grinning. "So nice of you to deliver the chaos emerald to me, Tails," he said, brandishing his laser gun. Tails had to get out of there. In a desperate attempt to make it away from the mad scientist, he quickly turned the biplane, sending it slamming into the side of the Snake as he snatched the chaos emerald out of the Tornado and jumped out, sending his two tails into motion as they started to carry him away. An idea flashed into Robotnik's head as he trained the laser sights on Tails. No, this is getting old. I think I'll try something a little different... Arashi blinked as Robotnik tore the racing harness off, leaping out of the ship and using the biplane (which hadn't hurt the Snake at all) as a stepping stone, sailing through the air for a moment before he grabbed onto Tails' arms and kept a tight grip, hanging on. The fox screamed in fear, trying to shake Robotnik off of him, but he couldn't. The weight dragged him out of the sky, quite fast, and no matter how fast his tails went, he couldn't keep himself aloft. Robotnik wasn't doing anything but hanging there laughing cruelly. Tails became so tired in his desperation that Robotnik could literally steer him, like a parachute, as they headed toward the ground quickly. The Steel Snake stayed hovering in the air, just as it was programmed to do if he leapt out, and Arashi watched, laughing, as he steered Tails towards a large tree. Tails thought Sonic was heavy, but he didn't know heavy until he was forced to try to lug Robotnik through the sky. Nearly losing consciousness from the effort, the fox was helpless as his passenger pulled him down, slamming him into a tree headfirst at about 30 miles an hour. *THUNK!* Then they both smashed through several branches and fell into a bush, obliterating it. The force of the fall knocked Robotnik out cold, but Tails wasn't as fortunate--the mad scientist had fallen right on top of him, killing him instantly. Though it was a bad fall for Robotnik too, he came to a couple of minutes later with no serious injuries and a great amount of amusement. It was worth it. Taking the chaos emerald off Tails' corpse, the mad scientist summoned the Steel Snake and rode off into the distance towards his base, he and Arashi laughing maniacally the entire time. ** "CRAP!" Takar had seen the whole thing. He watched as the ships collided, as the Tornado eventually dove into the trees in a blazing spiral, as Robotnik had dragged Tails into the forest. He had seen the Steel Snake dive, then appear again, a fox tail stuck in the door of the cargo hold as the giant flexible ship flew away. "Arrrghhh! I HATE you, Ivo Robotnik!" Takar snarled and stomped down into his lab. "I'm supposed to be superior to these humans! Yet they seem to thwart me at every turn! Why?! Whyyyyyy!??" The alien leader sat down in his chair and started to cry. See, Robotnik isn't the only Evil Overlord with feelings. He started to plot, trying to figure out how to handle this situation. Pulling up the file for Sonic's DNA, he used a super-advanced satellite-like device to pinpoint the location of that DNA structure. When a 3-D model of Robotnik flashed up on the screen, Takar promptly fainted. ** "I wonder what fox seasoning tastes like on pizza," Robotnik said, crushing the orange pill up and tossing it over a slice. "On a side note, I think that Pill-Maker 3000 is the best thing I ever made." He gulped down the slice of pizza, grinning as he savored his victory, and stopped to take a drink of Dr Pepper after finishing. Arashi could just see it. Ivo had consumed Sonic and Tails by turning them into pills--was he going to eat every enemy he ever made from this point on? Certainly a sure-fire way of getting rid of someone, though. She took a drink herself and reached for the last piece of pizza, just as Robotnik did, his gloved hand landing on hers. Oh, god, one of these corny scenes again? Make it stop! The two looked across the table at each other, eyes locking. A hint of nervousness immediately hung in the air as both lost words, even breath... Two hearts skipped a beat as they realized... "Crap, we're out of pizza!" they both exclaimed in unison, and started hunting through Arashi's backpack for more. ** "Alright, fat guy, I've got a little something up my sleeve that I've been waiting to use until just this sort of situation," Takar said, pulling out a device with a fake chaos emerald in it. He tapped a few things on the buttons, then grinned as he found the locations of all the other chaos emeralds using the fake one like a radar. With a super-fast pod similar to Robotnik's infamous escape pod, the Ykrian leader zoomed out into the sky, towards a plains area in the northwest, where the cyan emerald was. He had to face many dangers to get all the emeralds. By the time he had them all, he had gotten half-mauled by a lion, fell off a bridge and slammed over some sharp rocks in rapids, was nearly crushed by a giant towering plateau that fell down when he extracted the purple emerald from a crack in it, and had to evade fire from military jets after stealing the grey one from the Pentagon. He'd dealt with all of that, there was no way the yellow emerald was going to pose a more dangerous situation than what he already faced... And it didn't. It was lying out in the middle of a field, harmlessly, and he walked right up and plucked it from the ground with an insane grin. He had the five remaining chaos emeralds... now he could-- A passenger airliner that was flying overhead malfunctioned, and a giant block of frozen sewage waste fell out, slamming directly into Takar and knocking him out. ** A few hours later, Robotnik was walking about the base collecting rings that seemed to pop up from time to time. Why were rings just lying about everywhere in the universe? Good question. No matter where you went--be it through the city, through a forest, underwater, even out in space--there were usually rings close at hand. It was strange. A loud rumbling was heard as the entire base shook for a moment, and an earsplitting explosion blew the central building apart, sending twisted metal flying outwards at blistering speeds. Some pieces embedded themselves in the gem-encrusted walls, things even exploding as they impacted. Robotnik felt a searing heat blow him out of the base, sending him into the water since he was in the part of the base that was submerged. He thrashed to the surface, gasping for air, trying to reorient himself as he looked up at his obliterated base. Realization flashed into his head. Arashi! She had been in there! Quickly, Robotnik pulled himself out of the water, calculating where she would be from what he observed of where pieces had been flying. Since she was in the living room, she would probably be in the northwestern part of the cave, by that huge pile of destruction... Racing over to the pile of twisted metal, he saw the couch, overturned, half of it destroyed. Pinned under it from the waist down was Arashi, sprawled on her back. "Arashi!" Robotnik yelled worriedly as he rushed to her, pulling the couch off of her. Gashes covered her body, and shards of metal were imbedded deep in her sides. Kneeling down next to her, he pulled her up into a half-sitting position, wincing when she cried out in pain. Grabbing the front of his coat, she gasped weakly for breath. "What... h-h..." "I don't know! Hang on, I'm going to go get medical supplies," he said, trying to keep his voice from shaking as he glanced over the serious wounds. As he moved to dash away, she tightened her grip on him. "No... I... I'll be dead by the time you... get back," she wheezed painfully, eyes shut tightly. "Stay here... please... don't let me die... alone..." Robotnik felt something icy grip his heart as he stared down at her in disbelief. "You can't be serious," he whispered shakily. "I've never... been so serious," she replied, a pained sound escaping her as it felt like daggers were stabbing her lungs with every breath. Robotnik tried his best to keep her still as he held her tightly in his arms. Pain made her take sharp breaths, and sharp breaths only produced more pain. Arashi weakened rapidly, Ivo staring down at her helplessly, not knowing what to do. After only about thirty seconds, she slowly became heavier in his arms, her head falling back as she mumbled something with her dying breath. "...crap, I forgot to check my email..." For what seemed like an eternity, Robotnik remained there, sobbing uncharacteristically in despair against Arashi's lifeless shoulder. Was this what it was like... to have feelings? To love somebody? Indeed, the highs were high, but the lows were unbearable... Suddenly, a voice from nearby grabbed his attention. "How touching," came the fairly bored-sounding British accent. The heartbroken scientist looked up to find Takar hovering in midair, smiling cruelly, his form glowing a neon green. Somehow, with only 5 chaos emeralds, he was in his Super Form. "You," Robotnik snarled, letting Arashi slump to the ground as he stood up. "You blew up my base! You destroyed everything! YOU KILLED ARASHI!" "Your point?" the Ykrian leader asked, examining his nails briefly. "I... HAVE HAD... ENOUGH OF YOU!" Robotnik screamed madly, his voice enraged and seemingly in physical pain for some reason. It sounded rather unnatural, causing Takar to glance up, quirking a brow. His expression went from triumphantly bored to slightly alarmed as the human started to glow a faint crimson. Robotnik groaned in agony, both mental and physical, reeling and holding his head. His uncontrollable rage was taking over every fiber of his being, and everything was in pain. All he could see was red, even when he closed his eyes, and eventually he fell to his knees with a scream as his hands exploded, instantly replaced by robotic ones. Searing, sharp pain traveled up his arms, only to leave immediately as cold steel and oil replaced flesh and blood. His form changed and shifted, growing rapidly, and normal teeth were shoved out of their sockets as needle-sharp, steel teeth moved to replace them. The rest of his body changed, steel replacing everything, a sputtering aura of electricity crackling around him. Finally, he stopped screaming as his clothing seemed to stick to him, tightening until it became one with him, the design becoming etched into his metal skin. Ultra Robotnik stood up slowly, training a stare of the greatest hate imaginable on his enemy, who was moving backwards in fear, sweat flying off his head. "H-h-how did you change with only two emeralds!?" the alien asked, terrified. "I was wondering something similar about you, lime boy," Ultra Robotnik replied, his voice filled with enough hate to vaporize any normal man. "The Ykrians... we can change with only 5, because we're more in tune with chaos than you humans... but... Oh, why did I bring those two back to life!? I had no idea they were just pieces of you! THAT must be how you defeat me!" "Pieces of me?!" the robot asked. "I ate them, you fool." Oh, god, this is worse than I thought, Takar thought to himself, suddenly very, very afraid. He really means business... And Sonic and Tails... I gave them some of my blood... that's how he managed to do it... Even Ultra Robotnik cringed at Takar's girlish screech of terror, but didn't wait long before he leapt at the alien, bent on revenge. Takar skidded hard across the sandy ground as the giant robot smashed into him, much like he did the first time they met. Only this time, there were no guards around to pull the hulking pile of metal off of him, and the beating started. Over and over, fists pounded into Takar's face, smashing it in, and while it regenerated every time, it certainly wasn't a pleasant experience. After about 30 punches to the face, Takar managed to throw Ultra Robotnik off of him and the two circled around each other, snarling. There is more than one type of snarl, however, and while Ultra Robotnik's was aggressive and nasty, Takar's was the sort that you'd see on a trapped, frightened animal. Leaping forward, the alien slammed a foot into Ultra Robotnik's midsection, hoping to pierce the armor with brute force. Instead, he received a broken ankle, and as he was falling to the ground, the raging mad scientist grabbed him by the legs. Takar flailed helplessly for a moment, wondering why Robotnik wasn't doing anything, until he felt a dozen cold, needle-like objects sink into his leg. "AAAAGH! HE'S GONNA EAT MEEEE! NOOOOoOooOOooOOO!" the alien screamed in terror, managing to flail enough to get out of the robot's grip, his wounds healing immediately. Then he decided that he was not going to lose. Leaping into the air, the alien fired a giant beam of chaos energy at Ultra Robotnik, who dodged it easily and leapt forward with a vicious punch to the gut. Takar went flying backwards, wind milling his arms as he splashed violently into the lake, and the robot was heading right for him. Giant barrels of some sort of gun replaced Robotnik's hands as he splashed into the water, firing homing torpedoes at Takar as he headed for him. The alien detonated the torpedoes prematurely with another beam of some sort, blowing them up in the robot's face, and one of his sensors was damaged along with his steel mustache, half of which got ripped off in the explosion. Temporarily stunned by the blast as he put most of his system resources into trying to repair the sensor, Ultra Robotnik was pelted with chunks of giant stones that ripped themselves out of the walls and floor of the lake, slamming into him and tossing him around. He decided he could still win with only one sensor, realizing that more important things were getting damaged, and rocketed towards Takar, ramming him with a headbutt that would have instantly killed a normal person. Distracted due to the blow, Takar stopped with the onslaught of boulders. The fight raged on with neither really winning, and suddenly Takar burst out of the water, followed close by Robotnik. The alien grinned down at his pursuer. "Instead of killing you, I think I'll make it so that there is no hope of you ever seeing Arashi again," Takar said. "What do you mean?" Ultra Robotnik asked, growling. "I mean I have a life-restoring device back at the lab... but I'm going to go destroy it," he said, cackling. "My race is the only one that can build these, using ancient talismans that are all gone save for one, Roboboy! And heck if I'm going to let you have any chance of accessing it!" The alien cackled madly, bursting through the shaft that he'd managed to open up, heading for the surface. Ultra Robotnik smirked and... doubled over in pain as electricity crackled around him. Crap! His teleportation mechanisms had been damaged! The race was on. ** Takar ran along, arms and legs pumping furiously, towards his base. Looking behind himself, he saw the ponderous machine clanking along slowly and laughed. "Piece of cake!" the alien thought to himself, and faced forward again, grinning evilly. Finally, Ultra Robotnik's jets had warmed up, and he shot forward, hovering over the ground slightly, seeming to slide on jets on the bottom of his feet as he moved as if rollerblading. The scene was hauntingly familiar, somehow. He started to catch up to Takar, who was too caught up in his supposed victory to be paying attention. Though the alien's speed remained pretty much constant, the robot's jets became stronger every moment, propelling him forward at well over Mach 3. Takar screeched as he felt metallic fingers clamp on the back of his neck. Running faster than the speed of sound didn't allow him to hear Ultra Robotnik closing in on him, and he was suddenly flung backwards several dozen feet, slamming into the ground hard and sliding painfully for quite a distance, getting a severe case of road rash. The robot continued forward with grim determination, setting grass ablaze as he sliced through it. Soon he was in the forest, completely ignoring trees as he ran right through them, leaving perfect cookie-cutter cutouts of himself in them, the huge chunks of busted-out wood clattering to the ground. His speed was up to Mach 4. A brilliant light burst out in front of him about a half of a mile, and Takar ran out of it, leaping over a few logs and boulders. Chaos control, the robot thought to himself, snarling. He sliced right through the boulders and logs in his efforts to catch up with the alien, who was quickly gaining speed in desperation. Having reached his top speed, Ultra Robotnik was unable to catch up with the alien, who had been propelled to his top speed quickly by the Chaos Control, before they got to the plains. He could see the boulder arrangement with the trapdoors now, and thought all hope was lost... Arashi... That's when Takar suddenly reverted to normal form, seeming to have run out of rings. He panicked, screaming, and tried to stop, his feet slamming into the very ruts that Sonic created not too long ago. Then he tripped at the end of the long ruts in the ground and flailed out of control, screeching as he went flying off into the distance. A parachute, like those on drag racers, burst out of Ultra Robotnik's back as he activated his reverse jets, the parachute helping to bring him to a stop much easier than the unfortunate alien who, by the time the robot had stopped, caused the entire world to shake yet again by wrapping himself around that same tree that Sonic met his end with. Such a nice tree, helping to stop people all the time... Just as Ultra Robotnik came to a stop, chunks of metal began to fall off of him, revealing his normal self underneath. He stumbled towards the trapdoor in the ground, various pieces of steel bouncing to the ground behind him, and when he had finally reverted completely to his normal self, he collapsed into the dust, exhausted, his hand on the trapdoor handle. ** When he woke up, it was late at night. Robotnik had a fitful sleep, with dreams of Arashi's death and related events replaying over and over in his mind, one nasty one in particular involving Takar winning the race and destroying the device. Slowly opening his eyes, the doctor spotted one of the chaos emeralds nearby. He felt weak as he reached over and picked it up with a shaking hand, tucking it in his pocket, and had to put some effort into pulling the trapdoor open. Once he got himself down into the lab, he saw the various devices--a high-tech computer, a large cabinet-like contraption, and some kind of sliding door at the back. For now, since it looked big enough to hold one or two people, his interests lay with the cabinet, and he sat down at the computer chair, fishing through a drawer for any sort of instruction manuals. Surprised that Takar learned from his mistakes with the Windows 98 book and apparently had organized his earth base, Robotnik pulled out the manual for the computer/cabinet combination, titled, "Life Box Instruction Manual." He flipped through it a couple pages, finding that there were only a few pages to the actual manual--most of the thick book was simply rewrites in Ykrian, English, Chinese, Greek, French, Spanish, German... The instructions read... Using the Life Box is a simple process. Place any DNA remnants of a person in through the cabinet doors and close the doors, then add whatever mutation agents you would like to the mixture by dropping them in the funnel on the side of the Life Box. Once you are done, run C:\DNA.EXE and make sure the being has changed as you wish. Then click the 'compile and run' button and wait. They should exit the cabinet shortly. To check what mutations a given agent will provide, just click on 'Mutations?' in the toolbar. It is possible to check your own DNA structure and distinct traits you have by stepping in the Life Box and pressing the 'scan' button on the keypad in there. Remain calm and still as the white beam moves over you, and when the green light on the keypad begins blinking, you can exit the Box and examine your file on the computer. You can also mutate yourself by adding the desired agents to the funnel, then stepping into the Box and pressing the 'Mutate' button. A gas will start to fill the Box--do not panic, its function is to put you to sleep. Trust us, if you attempted to change your DNA structure with the Box whilst still awake, you would seriously regret it after you recovered from the extreme pain. We are not responsible for any nasty things you end up doing to yourself with this. Just ask yourself how far you trust Windows XP to handle the files, and act accordingly. Robotnik looked at the computer and the Life Box. I trust Windows XP about as far as I can throw the planet, but it's my only chance. He investigated the sliding door, finding that it contained a hangar of sorts with a UFO in it. He walked under the small craft, which closely resembled the pod on the Steel Snake's back, and glanced up into the interior. Black leather, a nice control panel, a giant laser gun, a CD player... a pretty nice little vehicle all around. He pulled himself up into the cockpit and closed the door, examining the controls. There weren't very many, so they wouldn't be too hard to figure out. Pressing one button caused the laser beam to fire, blowing out half the wall. Robotnik jumped, then snickered to himself. "That was kind of cool," he mumbled idly, then tried another button. The hangar door above him opened. Must be the garage door opener! A few more buttons, and after smashing into the walls by putting it in the wrong gear, he was up and flying through the air. The ship was absolutely silent as it sped along towards his underground base. Robotnik was grim, trying not to get his hopes up, not knowing if the Life Box would really work as he brought the Steel Snake over from a pile of rubble. Miraculously it had survived the explosion, and he ditched the alien's pod for his own vehicle, strapping Arashi's lifeless body into the passenger seat. Then he began the trip back to the alien's base. ** The Life Box thrummed quietly as Robotnik clicked the 'compile and run' button. He watched the box hopefully for a moment, then turned his attention back to Arashi's file. It was rather interesting to see various traits of a person... like high intellect, mechanical aptitude, mathematical aptitude, excellent sense of humor, tendency towards evil, great kisser-- what the!? Thinking back, the doctor realized the computer was right, at least. A few seconds later, the Life Box stopped humming and the doors flew open, Arashi stumbling out, every wound healed. Robotnik sat, immobilized with shock. It worked. Something vitally important actually WORKED in Windows. Holy crap on a stick. The first amazed word out of Arashi's mouth: "COOL!" As the two looked at each other, Robotnik leapt out of his chair in slow motion. The few steps across the room to each other seemed to take forever, with a field of tall grass and sunshine as the background for the clip... Ah, yes, another corny reunion. At least they didn't yell pet names for each other. Evil Overlords, Even Those Who Have Been Thrown Way Out Of Character By Fanfic Authors With Strange Ideas, don't do pet names. We can only hope, anyway.

2019 Femslash February Recs

It’s Femslash February! Which means it’s time for some RECS. Here you’ll find multifandom femslash fics, as well as a few not-quite-femslash fics that focus on female characters. My femslash reading is all over the place, and this list follows suit: some recs are new, some are collected from earlier rec posts; all are in alphabetical order by fandom, at least. Recs below the cut, and please remember to show your love with kudos and comments! 

Code Name Verity Wind, Sand, Devotion - montparnasse, read by fire_juggler - 6k, 53min, T, Maddie/Julie "Empty spaces want for filling, and Maddie Brodatt is overflowing." A gorgeous, sensitive pod of a hauntingly lovely fic.

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency A Moment of Clarity - electricteatime | @kieren-fucking-walker - 7k, G, Farah/Tina “Farah is saved from answering when Tricia promptly throws up on her own shoes. She would be more annoyed, but in the moment she finds herself too preoccupied to care. Girls with girls. There’s a thought." If you believe that Farah Adrienne Black deserves ALL the love and acceptance, from herself and from others, then you absolutely must read this fic.

real and okay and beautiful - embraidery | @blueandnoah - 2.8k, G, Farah/Tina/Amanda (but mostly just friendship) "Mona's feeling down in the dumps (body insecurities) and her friends try to help her feel better about it all!" Do you love awesome women supporting each other and feeling free? If so, read this!

Keep the Home Fires Burning - @flightinflame - 16k, M, Farah/Tina, AU "Bergsberg is a small town off the beaten track. For Project Vesta, a Blackwing runaway, it offers a fresh start and the chance of a friend in the town's sheriff." A painful, cathartic fic that gives Tina’s character some real attention, and gives Farah and Tina the happiness they deserve.

pray for the thunder and the rain - inkyfishes - 7k, T, Farah/Amanda "A Farah-centric slice of a possible future. Everything has gone wrong. Everything is broken. Farah works through her anxiety whilst beginning their lives on the run. Her place in the universe is, as yet, undecided." An excellent and all-too-brief glimpse into Farah’s psyche, with a steady undercurrent of Faranda.

i was born in a summer storm (i live there still) - janeseyre - 10k, G, Farah & Todd & Dirk "Farah confronts the vestiges of her past as she, Dirk, and Todd travel east to visit her mother. It turns out Farah isn’t as over her father’s death as she thought she was." A deeper look into Farah’s families, both biological and chosen; full of lovely little smile moments and Farah getting the closure she deserves.

Never Played It Cool - @lavellington - 1.8k, T, Farah/Amanda "Dude," Amanda says, squeezing her tight while her hair tickles Farah's face. "It's so good to see you." "You too," Farah says, meaning it, and when they break apart Amanda's hands linger on her shoulders for a second longer than they have to, and that's nice. That's enough to feed her borderline pathetic crush for a week, at least.” Short, sweet, a tiny bit steamy, and beautifully in-character.

Hold Her Fast - Lynds | @gold-from-straw - 11.9k, T, Farah/Amanda, AU "Farah Black is the new girl in Amanda's school, and she's captivating. Everyone has a story about her. Amanda just can't quite figure out why her entire being is so totally aware of her, why her skin prickles when she's around, why Farah looks more real than anyone else she's ever known." I’m not typically into high school AUs, but this one is funny, moving, angsty, and gloriously DEFIANT.

Firearms Proficiency 101 - @nekosmuse - 3k, T, Farah/Amanda "I can't believe you took me to your private shooting range on our first date. That is so punk." Do you enjoy awkward Faranda? ME TOO. Especially stuff like Farah saying: "I... I am... into you as well." These nerds <3

you will soothe my worried looks - orphan_account - 2k, T, Farah/Amanda “Farah sees a therapist. It's a strange journey, but not one she needs to take alone." I would read many thousands more words of Farah in therapy, honestly.

there's cell reception on this widow's walk - strix_alba - 2k, T, Farah/Tina "In which Tina sort-of-kind-of asks Farah to stay with her in Bergsberg, and Farah kind-of-sort-of wants to say yes." Clumsy flirting, Farina styles! Tina mentally describes the Jacket Team as a “bunch of hot, uptight weirdos,” which is p e r f e c t.

Coincidental - tastewithouttalent - 3.7k, M, Farah/Tina "It turns out that blue is a ridiculously good color against the dark of Farah’s skin, and also that that shirt fits her better than any shirt has any right to fit anyone, and also apparently Tina has more of a uniform kink than she realized she did." You just have to love a babbling, awkwardly-crushing Tina.

(Note: this rec list isn't meant to be About Me, buuuuut if you’re into DGHDA femslash, I’ve written a few Farina fics you might enjoy.)

Ghostbusters (2016) Celebrate the Me Yet To Come - Vera (Vera_DragonMuse), read by @revolutionaryjo - 6k, 37min, M, Jillian/Erin "She is deeply strange and strangely deep. She looks in the void and the void blinks first. This is how Jillian Holtzman makes herself." Holtzmann is such a fantastically odd character, it's so enjoyable to dig into her past and her passions.

i don't wanna give you up (i don't wanna let you love somebody else but me) - @notcaycepollard, read by RevolutionaryJo - 3k, 20min, E, Jillian/Erin "Erin Gilbert is not the second or even the fifth straight girl Jillian’s ever fallen for, and it’s kind of getting to be a problem, except when she sees Dr Erin Gilbert, she thinks, maybe, this woman might be a statistical outlier." Closely observed, funny, hot, and the narrative voice is perfect.

Gilmore Girls Suggestions (And Mallomars) - Mosca | @moscarific, 3.3k, T, Rory/Paris "Identity, chocolate, mother-daughter relations, and the importance of voting: scenes from the first 90 days." Hands down, this is a more plausible (and enjoyable) romance than any of the ones that actually occurred in canon.

Harry Potter Library Solicitation - @gracerene09 - 1k, G, Cho/Hermione "It's not as if it's unusual for a solicitor to spend so much time in the Law Library of the Ministry of Magic. Hermione has a lot of cases to prepare for, after all. It certainly has nothing to do with how helpful and interesting and surprisingly funny their newest librarian is." As a librarian, I'm verrrry picky about librarian fics, but this was adorable.

The violets and the bloodroot - @lbmisscharlie - 908 words, G, Hermione/Luna "Luna strokes the underside of one tentacle; the plant hums. Hermione’s skin feels warm, her breath humid. The Room of Requirement offers up many things." Short, but vivid and memorable.

Winter Like a Balm - Lomonaaeren - 2k, T, Ginny/Luna "The first winter after Fred's death, Ginny escapes into the Forbidden Forest with Luna and her unicorns." A gentle but deeply felt story about grief and loss that brings Ginny through to the other side, to the terror/joy of allowing herself to feel hopeful again.

Grazed Knees - montparnasse - 5k, T, Luna/Ginny "The war is over, except that it isn't, and Ginny is done fighting, except that she's not." The mood in this one is so evocative, and I love it so much.

Blood Magic and Rebirth (or, The One Where They Are All Feminist Academics) - notcaycepollard - 1k, G "Moon cups, Luna thinks. Moon cups and blood magic. And she remembers the old itch under her skin, and a music box fluttering into a flock of birds, and wonders just how powerful it could be." Not femslash, but this fic is 1000% headcanon for me now.

Trust A Few - @violetclarity - 13.2k, T, Hermione/Pansy "Hermione has a pregnant adopted sister, parents who don’t believe she’s bisexual, and a crush the size of the Great Lake on Pansy Parkinson. Taking Pansy up on her offer to be Hermione’s fake date to her parents’ Christmas dinner could solve at least one of those problems...but it could also make everything worse." Half holiday romcom, half character study of adult Hermione her relationships (both romantic and familial).

Independent Love Song - @writcraft - 6.2k, E, Ginny/Millie "Millicent Bulstrode is a tailor and Ginny is losing her mind over a woman in a tweed blazer and burgundy brogues." I saw the summary and thought “hell yes,” and then I read the fic and upgraded that to a “FUCK YES PLEASE.” I love dapper butch Millie, and just-out but all-in Ginny, and also I would like to own ALL of Millie’s clothes.

His Dark Materials Selected Moments in Introductory Symbology - @kaydeefalls - 5.6k, G, Lyra/OFC "Lyra in Oxford after the Fall, relearning the alethiometer and discovering a life of her own." A poignant yet hopeful follow-up to the original trilogy, with characterization that feels very authentic while still allowing for growth.  

Merlin A Statue Strong Enough for Two - @theladyragnell, read by exmanhater - 39k, 3hrs 30min, E, Elena/Mithian "Elena is a street-level superhero. A visit from an old enemy forces her to step up and see what she might have to do with the Sidhe who invaded and were sent away twenty years ago. Luckily, she has fellow superheroes to back her up, and a new girlfriend in her regular life to make things feel more normal." I admit that I was skeptical going in, but the characterization and world-building in this AU is strong and absorbing.

Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries Rise and reprove the insolent daylight - lbmisscharlie - 3k, E, Phryne/Mac "Mac takes a breath; Phryne exhales. The trailing skirt of Phryne’s shining dress – starlight and sparkle – brushes the backs of Mac’s hands as she slides them up to Phryne’s knees. Her stockings are soft; her thighs fall open, softly, under Mac’s hands, which clench, just slightly, with the heat that sends to her gut." Lush and laden with sensory details and weighty emotion

Every Day's Most Quiet Need - @tiltedsyllogism - 22k, unrated, Phryne/Mac, Phryne/Jack "Doctor Elizabeth Macmillan does not traffick in regrets...if Mac occasionally longs for a time before her friend became somehow distracted by the stiff shoe that is Inspector Jack Robinson— well, one must always endure some bad with the good." I love everything about this fic, but especially the closely observed characterization, of both individuals and relationships. There's a moment where Mac recognizes that she and Jack share a certain kind of "well-tailored" intensity...I almost shouted "YES THIS" when I read it.

et faisons la grasse matinée - mazily | @ylizam - 1k, M, Phryne/Mac, Phryne/Jack "'I do love you,' Mac says. She's not fond of saying it." Quiet, atmospheric, and sensual.

Sherlock How the mouth changes its shape - breathedout | @havingbeenbreathedout - 132k, E, Sherlock/Johnnie, AU “1955. A hidden London; the clandestine love between women. To Sherlock Holmes, struggling private detective and mistress of disguise, it’s a realm she renounced. To Johnnie Watson, daredevil ambulance driver turned auto mechanic, it’s too familiar.” Not only is this a deliciously plotty mystery with complex characterization, it’s also well-researched historical fiction. (Also recommended: HBBO’s Femslash and sex-writing essays.)

In the palms of the hands, invisible - lbmisscharlie - 3k, E, Sherlock/Jo "'I touch myself here, in this room, stretched out on the sofa, when you’re asleep, or showering, or – or in the kitchen –' Sherlock's breath hitches, almost imperceptibly, when Jo’s hand skitters, startled by the deep, rumbling rush of lust that pools low in her cunt at Sherlock’s words." The voice and characterization in this fic absolutely destroys me. It’s so uncomfortable and fascinating and real.

Diversionary Tactics - ShinySherlock, read by @fffinnagain- 2k, 16min, E, Molly/Irene, AU "Oh. This could be interesting. Irene’s fingers moved to the third button of the dress and paused. 'Shall I just . . . check the rest of you, then? Make sure you’re quite all right?'" A brief, hot, historical PWP, Mollrene style. UNF. Finnagain's performance is very...impassioned--maybe don't listen in public ;)

Supernatural To know what's under the floor - beckaandzac, read by exmanhater - 4k, 21min, G, Charlie/Jo, AU "No one here is like me, Jo thinks, and she knows it’s what every eighteen year old on the planet thinks. And she also knows in her case it’s completely justified. But then she meets Charlie." A college sorta-AU in which Charlie and Jo get something a lot closer to the lives they deserved.

Wonder Woman (2017) be yourself my ally - imperfectcircle - 15k, G, Diana/Etta 'That’s all very flattering,' Etta says when Diana has finally run out of steam, 'but surely you have more qualified candidates than me?' 'You are of the world of men.' Diana looks a little embarrassed. 'But not a man.' Diana and Etta go back to Themyscira." Did you wish for more Themyscira in the Wonder Woman movie? Did you think that Etta Candy was delightful and underutilized? ME TOO! Hence, my love for this fic.

Etta Candy's Last Stand - sanguinity - 2k, T, Diana/Etta "This is the way Etta is going to die: trapped between a bed and Diana Prince’s breasts." Bless Etta Candy and her dorky, romantic heart.

Beyond Belief - thingswithwings - 14k, E, Diana/Peggy, crossover "Diana finds her for the first time in 1947, underneath a rather heavy pile of fallen masonry." An unapologetically sexy crossover fic about camaraderie (and attraction) between two badass women.

Thank you Mama peño, you are amazing!!!

~Yeah no prob! hehehe all hail the booty 

◉ Yoosung 

Low-key living for it

Tries not to stare but he STARES 

Obsessed with you in skirts 

Any kind of skirt, pencil, mini like all the skirts 

Uses your butt as a laptop holder sometimes

He just loves when you lay across his lap reading or on your phone and he can lay his forearms on your butt and study or play console games 

Has slapped your ass 

Blushes like crazy every time though and stutters 

“S-sorry...was that alright?” 

◉ Jumin 

It doesn’t matter how insecure you are, he is obsessed with every part of you

Thinks your butt is perfection 

Very strict that the tailors making your clothes accentuate your...assets 

Will most likely ask if he can record your diet, daily activities and exercise routine to calculate how you got a body like that 

Making scientific research outta your fine ass 

He will absolutely not have you being insecure about it 

If he gets the slightest hint that you’re worried about how you look, it’s game over. He is cancelling his day for you 

“Today, I’m going to show you just how much I crave every inch of you, and I won’t be stopping until I’m completely sure you understand my love for you.” 

◉ Zen 

Verrrry handsy 

Can’t help himself around you 

Sometimes doesn’t even realize he’s cupped a cheek until you’ve like, stopped chopping the onions and you’re looking at him and he’s like :

“What is it?”

“Ahem...” looks down at his hand 

“Gah! Sorry babe...habit...” 

Always makes you jog in front of him, so he has the best view in town 

Has dreams about the booty 

“I didn’t think it was possible but...you’re the only person in the world with a finer ass than me. I’m okay with it, though,” *squeezes*

◉ Jaehee 

W E A K   2 tha BOOTYYY 

She gets so flustered when you’re at home walking around in booty shorts(spanks) or anything accentuating your curves 

“MC I-I...have some work to do illbeintheotherroomokaybye” you cant even hear her flustered mumbles as she blushes and runs away

Very worried about how you dress in public because she can’t handle it and also doesn’t want others staring at you 

Low-key loves seeing you walk around the house in boxers >.>....

Also...if you’re in just a T-shirt and panties (even though most of the time she is a shy flustered bean and runs away and then you have to chase and tackle her)

Fav thing is going clothes shopping with you and seeing in the dressing room how different outfits look on you with your curves

Just thinks you’re beautiful 

◉ Saeyoung 

Boy can’t be stopped 

And you know it too so you wear things that tease him on purpose 

At any time, in any place, even if you think you’re home alone...if you lay on your stomach at all, Saeyoungs head will appear, laying on your butt 

It’s his favorite resting place 

Will also use it as a prop for action figures or animal crackers when he’s playing around 

Thinks your ass has magical powers 

*rubs your butt like a crystal ball* “ohhhh great mystical booty....what shall we have for dinner tonight” *places an ear to your butt* “it says honey buddha chip and PHD Pepper! The great and powerful one has spoken!”
