#about manipulation milo

[perfectlovevn]

Would the Milo's wear a suit?

Yup! I love drawing suits on guys, girls, whoever, so I gotta draw them wearing it.

[rini-dn]

i drew manipulation milo from @perfectlovevn 's vn! i had to re-upload it because i realised i posted the version without the blush, my mistake, but now it's up, and I really hope you like it!! I loved your VN with my whole heart and ive never seen such a gorgeously executed VN! I'll be fixating on it and telling all my friends about it for as long as i can!

I hope you like it, i tried to use rotoscoping to make him more realistic but i think he looks uncanny especially with the hands 😭. i also tried to add some colour since the line art itself looked too bleak, so i hope his colours aren't wildly wrong from what i assumed because i couldn't find anything on how he ought to be coloured ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ

also please ignore how i forgot his jumper buttons

again, thank you @perfectlovevn !! i hope you like this fanart of milo!

I think Laufey would change her depending which Milo she has in her hands, just to be more fitting with them, I couldn't help myself but do this...I just love Milo so much!!

more info under keep reading ^_^

Pre-Milo: Laufey is a bit more overprotective to give Milo the idea of how much she cares about his well being. She'd do her "sweet girlfriend" role the best she could, by borrowing his clothes, try to cook (which ends up her taking him to breakfast/lunch/dinner somewhere) and pretend to be shy when he does things for her (she dislike to act shy but she sees how much it makes Milo try to act more like a boyfriend, it's cute in a way).

Laufey also doesn't mind driving him to places, all to make him feel special with her and her alone. She always speak sweet nothings to him and make it feel like it's a promise she's doing to Milo, maybe some of those sweet lies may be real but you'll never know. Laufey also loves to show a bit of PDA with Pre-Milo to proof she isn't playing around about being his girlfriend (if you want to break someone, make it real!/j)

Either way, Laufey and Pre-Milo can be a bit romantic and cute in a way if you ignore her manipulating him and gaslighting him.

Manipulation!Milo: once the change happens, Laufey changes herself once again, she let's Manipulation!Milo take the wheel for a bit, she doesn't mind him being the big spoon, she actually kinda enjoys it because it means he doesn't want her to get away, how he wants to have her all for himself.

She LOVES having him doing the driving and take her places now because she likes to have someone else doing that for her than herself doing to the others. Despite her not being into PDA with Manipulation!Milo, she's still do it sometimes to rile him up and do things for her, even being very touchy to him all because she loves to see him being a blushing mess and riled up.

Laufey and Manipulation!Milo are slightly equals and he knows what she tries to do with him sometimes, the same goes to her, both love to see how cute their partner is trying to do with each other and they usually resolve that in bed (sometimes)

Violence!Milo: between the changes Milo has, Violence!Milo is Laufey's favourite. Laufey is all about violence and aggression once you are able to see the real her and because of that, she does have feelings towards Violence!Milo for being that way. She loves to steal his clothes and use in college just to tease him. Her words for him can have some truth unlike the other Milos, she finds Violence!Milo her "almost" perfect love and she's fine with it, after all, he is now her dog bodyguard.

Because of him being her now "dog bodyguard" she loves to make him get into fights for her, that's the only time she'll show actual affection and love towards Violence!Milo, even lie to him about someone hitting on her to see hell go loose.

Either way, Laufey will also do things for him as such driving and taking him places and probably spoil him a little unlike the others, after all, she gotta make her precious boyfriend get affections from her alone to keep being a loyal dog.

In general: Laufey adores her Milos and seeing they becoming obsessed with her (and obviously yandere) makes her feel a genuine happiness with the idea of breaking them even more until they become a hollow version of themselves that desperate need her for everything.

i’ve come to the bizarre realization that, despite being a film major focused on screenwriting, based on the classes ive already taken + am enrolled to take, im far more capable of completing a minor in religious studies than creative writing

[itneverendshere]

reader maybe having a dad, like jj’s? very manipulative and controlling, sometimes it’s physical. and he comes out unexpected while rafes there

okay so i was planning to write off her parents as dead but this made me change my mind a little, hope you enjoy <3

wash the sins out of that house - r.c

pairing: rafe x pogue!reader (bartender!reader universe)

The sound of cartoons played low in the background, mixing with the faint clink of a fork against a plate. 

Rafe leaned back against the worn-out couch in your sister’s living room, watching as you flipped pancakes at the kitchen counter. Your sister’s kid, Milo, was glued to your leg, like always, babbling about some superhero show. The smell of breakfast filled the house, making it feel more like home than his own ever did.

Every little thing you did just made him fall more, if that was possible. He was always looking at you like that, like you were some kind of miracle.

It wasn’t just how good you were with Milo or how much you cared about everything and everyone. It was how much weight you carried without ever complaining, how you made everything seem easy even when he knew it wasn’t. You’d been staying here ever since the storm ripped through your house a few months back. 

Your sister was cool. Single mom, strong like you, but in a quieter way. She worked double shifts, and left you to help with Milo most of the time. Not that you ever complained, even after the long shifts, you loved to babysit. You were used to this shit—being the rock. Probably why you hadn’t freaked out when your house got leveled. You just rolled with it, found a place with your sister, and moved on like it was no big deal.

He’d been staying over more and more, crashing on the couch when he was too tired to drive back to Tannyhill. At first, it was just because he wanted to be near you when you couldn’t sleep over at his. But now… it felt like more. Like he could see himself living with you right away.

You glanced over your shoulder, catching him staring like an idiot. “You good?”

“Yeah,” He cleared his throat, leaning forward. “You need help or something?”

You laughed, shaking your head as you flipped another pancake. “You? In the kitchen? That’s rich, baby.”

“Hey, you never complain about my pancakes.” He shot you a grin, but it faded when Milo tugged at your shirt, asking something in that tiny voice of his. 

You crouched down, your voice soft as you reassured him, “Mommy will be back soon, okay? Just a couple more hours.”

You looked so at ease like you’d been raising kids your whole life. It did something to him—watching you like that. This tough, independent woman who wouldn’t take anyone’s shit, just… melting when you talked to Milo.

Rafe swallowed hard, not really knowing what to say. Every time he tried to picture your future together, it got fuzzy. Not because he didn’t want one. He already told you he did. But because he wasn’t sure if he deserved one with you. His life had been a mess half the time.

He’d hurt people. Done things.

But when he was around you, he didn’t feel like that entitled spoiled guy anymore. He felt like someone who could be better. For you.

The front door slammed open, and immediately, something was off. Rafe’s eyes shot from Milo’s cartoons to the guy who’d just staggered in. He could smell the booze before he even saw his face.

Who the hell?

You froze. The spatula in your hand hung mid-air as you stared at this man like you’d seen a ghost. But this wasn’t a ghost. This guy was real, and from the way he was swaying on his feet, he was about to make himself a problem.

“Some fucking daughters y’all are,” the guy slurred, his voice rough and soaked in alcohol. “Not inviting your old man over while he’s in town.”

Your dad? That was your dad?

Rafe’s mind spun. You never talked about your parents and he’d never asked because he wasn’t stupid. He could tell it was a touchy subject, just like his own dad was sometimes, so he never brought it up. He assumed they were gone and you only had your sister. He never imagined this. 

Not once had you mentioned your dad. And now here he was, stumbling through the door like he owned the place.

Rafe shot up from the couch, every muscle in his body tightening. Who the hell did he think he was, barging in here like that? You didn’t say anything right away, but your whole posture changed—your back straight, your pretty face like stone. You looked like you were bracing for something, and he didn’t like that one bit.

“Dad,” you said, flat and cold. “What are you doing here?”

He gave this ugly laugh, a mix of drunk and mean. “What, can’t a father check in on his daughters? Or are you too good for your family now?”

You didn’t even flinch. Didn’t say a word. Just stood there, still as a statue, while Milo clung to your leg, eyes wide, just as confused as Rafe felt.

Rafe stepped forward, putting himself between him and you. He didn’t care if this guy was your dad. He was drunk, stumbling, and saying things no father should be saying to his kid.

“Who the hell are you?” Her dad’s eyes flicked to him, narrowing, like he was sizing me up. “Rich boy? Boyfriend?”

He squared his shoulders, staring him down. “Rafe.”

“Rafe,” he repeated, laughing like it was some kind of joke. “Of course. She’d find herself a rich boyfriend. Always looking for the easy way out, huh?”

He had some fucking nerve walking in here, talking to you like that. Like Rafe was ever going to let someone run you down. He didn’t know anything about your relationship with your parents, but from the look in your eyes and the way you were gripping the edge of the counter, he was starting to get the picture. This wasn’t the first time your dad pulled something like this, clearly.

You grabbed his arm before he could take another step. “Rafe, don’t.”

Your voice was low, almost pleading. Not because you were scared, but because this was deeper than just a drunk guy running his mouth. This was something you’d been dealing with for years, and your boyfriend was just now getting a front-row seat.

Your dad sneered at you. “That’s right. Tell your little boyfriend to back off. You’re not so tough now, are ya? Always thinking you’re better than me. Always looking after your sister’s kid like you’re some kind of hero. But you’re not. You’re just like your mother. Weak.”

That’s when Rafe felt it. That surge of anger, that need to hit something.

No one talked to you ike that. No one.

He could feel his fists clench, chest tightening. He was ready to throw your dad out himself. But your hand tightened on his arm, and he looked at you. Really looked at you. You seemed tired, like you’d been through this a thousand times before, and you didn’t need him to step in. Not right now.

“Let him go,” you said quietly. “He’ll leave when he’s done.”

Rafe didn’t want to back off. Every instinct in him was screaming to throw this piece of shit out on his ass. But something in your voice, something in the way you were looking at him, made him stop. You weren’t asking for help. You were asking him to let it go. For now.

He swallowed the anger and stepped back, though he kept myself between you and your dad. He wasn’t leaving you alone with this guy, no way in hell.

Your dad’s sneer didn’t falter. “Yeah, that’s what I thought.” He swayed a bit before heading for the door, muttering under his breath. “Ungrateful little—"

The door slammed behind him, leaving the room dead quiet. The kind of quiet that made you realize just how loud things were a minute ago.

You exhaled slowly, like you’d been holding your breath the whole time. You turned back to the counter, flipping the pancake like nothing happened. But Rafe could see the way your hands shook just a little.

He stood there for a second, still running through everything that just went down. He’d never seen you like that before. And he didn’t like what he saw.

“Baby,” he said quietly, stepping closer.

You didn’t look at him. “He does that sometimes. Shows up, drunk, says whatever he feels like saying. Then he leaves. Same thing for as long as I can remember.”

Rafe didn’t know what to say. His mind was racing, trying to wrap around the fact that this was your life. You’d been dealing with that guy for who knows how long, and you never said a word about it.

“That’s not okay,” he said finally, his voice rough. “That’s not normal.”

You sighed, finally turning to face him. “Yeah, well. Now you met the whole family.”

You didn’t know what else to say.

There wasn’t much to say. This was just how things were for you. Your dad was a mess, and you’d learned to deal with it, ignore it even. There was no fixing this. Not really. At this point, it didn't affect you or your daily life that much.

“I should’ve asked,” he said, his voice thick with guilt. “About your family, I mean.”

I shook my head, feeling the weight of it all. “I wouldn’t have told you,” I admitted. “Probably would’ve said he’s dead.”

You didn’t want to be that girl—the one with family baggage so heavy it crushed everything good in your life. You didn’t want Rafe looking at you like I were fragile or damaged. It was bad enough that you were as broke as it got. You’d just gotten used to him wanting to help, to be a little less independent, to let him take care of you and spoil you every once in a while.

This though? You never wanted him to find out. 

But now… he knew. He knew what you came from. And you couldn’t hide it anymore.

“I don’t care,” Rafe said suddenly, breaking the silence. Like he was trying to convince you and himself at the same time. “I don’t care about your dad. I care about you.”

You could feel his eyes burning into you, but you couldn’t bring yourself to look at him. Instead, you kept your focus on the pancakes, the routine keeping you distracted. But your hands wouldn’t stop shaking, no matter how hard you tried to stop it.

“I just… I didn’t want you to see that,” You finally admitted, your voice small and raw in a way you hated. “I didn’t want you to know how messed up everything is.”

Rafe moved closer, his body warmth seeping into your side as he leaned against the counter next to you. He didn’t try to touch you, though, and you were grateful for that. You weren’t ready for that.

Not yet.

“Messed up? Baby, have you met me?” He let out this soft, disbelieving laugh, but there wasn’t any humor in it. 

You glanced up at him, finally meeting his eyes. And there it was—that soft, almost sad look he got sometimes when he thought about his family. About how his mom left and how his dad never really let him in. Ward Cameron was friendly enough with you, and he wasn’t a complete asshole to his son, but he was absent, not really caring about keeping a constant connection with his kids. It hit you then that maybe you two weren’t so different after all.

Maybe that’s why you worked.

But still, the shame stayed. The feeling that now that he really knew you, the ugly parts you kept hidden, he might not stick around. Guys like him didn’t stick with girls like you, right? Despite him doing the exact opposite until know.

“This changes nothing, okay?” he said, his voice softer now, almost like he was trying not to spook me. “Not with me.”

He wasn’t looking at you like he was about to leave. His eyes were steady, clear. He didn’t look freaked out or like he regretted being here. He just looked… real. Like he meant every word.

 “This is a mess, Rafe. You saw it.”

“I don’t care,” he said, like he needed you to hear him. “I don’t care about any of that. None of it changes how I feel about you. I love you.”

You bit your lip, turning your attention back to the pancakes because if you didn’t, you were afraid you might cry. You weren’t the crying type, but after everything, your dad showing up like that, and Rafe not running for the door—it was a lot. Too much, maybe.

“I don’t want you to feel like you have to fix anything,” you said softly, flipping the last pancake and turning off the stove. “You can’t fix my dad or the way things are. I don’t want you to try.”

“I’m not trying to fix anything,” Rafe said, stepping closer to you now. “I’m just… I’m here. With you. That’s all I want.”

You felt his hand brush against yours, hesitant at first, like he wasn’t sure if you were ready to be touched. But when you didn’t pull away, his fingers laced through yours, and the warmth of it broke through the dread thad settled over you since your dad walked in.

Finally, you turned to face him, and there it was—that look in his eyes again. The one that said you were more than enough, that he saw you, really saw you, and wasn’t running for the hills. You knew him like the plam of your hand now, and he wasn’t bluffing. He never lied to you.

Your heart did this weird thing, like it flipped and dropped all at once. It was still a little scary to hear him say that. Scary because it meant he was sticking around, and as much as you it scared that was exactly what you wanted. For him to stay.

Because you loved him just as much, and you didn’t mind reminding him every day.

Milo broke the silence, tugging at your shirt again. “Is time f’pancakes now?”

You couldn’t help but smile at the innocence in his voice, the way he had no idea what had just gone down. You bent down to scoop him up, holding him close, the warmth of his growing body keeping you sane in the moment.

“Yeah, buddy,” you said softly. “It’s time for pancakes.”

Rafe watched you, a soft smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. This is why he knew you’d be a good mom one day. He kept that thought in the back of his mind every day since you gave him the bracelet on his wrist.

The way you picked up Milo and smiled—it calmed him down. The whole scene was so you—taking care of things, keeping it together even when everything around you was a mess.

“Eat up, kiddo,” you said, ruffling his hair as he dug in with way too much syrup. 

Then you glanced at Rafe again, your smile still lingering but more reserved, like you were still processing everything.

Milo was halfway through his second pancake, syrup smeared all over his little face, when he looked up at Rafe with those wide, innocent eyes.

“Hey, Rafey, we go park after?”

You were clearing the plates from the counter, and Rafe caught the quick glance you shot his way. You had a shift starting in an hour, and Milo probably knew it too, even if he wasn’t saying it.

He leaned back in his chair, wiping a bit of syrup off Milo’s cheek with the corner of a napkin. “The park, huh? What’re you thinking, swings? Slide?”

Milo grinned, syrup dripping down his chin. “Both! And the big jungle gym! You said I was big enough for it now, 'member?”

He laughed, remembering the time a couple weeks back when Milo had looked at that massive jungle gym like it was Mount Everest, and Rafe told him he was totally ready to conquer it. “I did say that, didn’t I?”

You shot him a look as you grabbed your bag, ready to head out for your shift. “You sure about this?” you asked.

Rafe waved it off. “Yeah, no problem. Milo and I got this.” He grinned at the kid. “We’re gonna hit the park and maybe even stop for some ice cream after if your mom’s cool with it.”

Milo’s face lit up like Christmas morning, and you laughed softly, shaking your head. “You’re spoiling him, baby.”

He shrugged, trying to play it cool, but deep down he liked how easy it felt, like this was where he was supposed to be. “Eh, he deserves it.”

You walked over to where Rafe was still leaning against the counter, and without overthinking it, you leaned in and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

“Ewwww!” Milo groaned dramatically, scrunching up his face like he just witnessed the grossest thing ever. “Why do you always gotta kiss him like that?”

You and Rafe both burst out laughing, and Rafe shook his head, ruffling Milo’s hair. “Get used to it, bud,” he said, still smirking. “She’s gonna keep doing that.”

“Not in front of me,” Milo said, still looking completely disgusted but clearly loving the attention. “It’s so gross!”

You grinned and gave Rafe a playful tap on the chest. “Guess we’ll have to start sneaking around now.”

Rafe chuckled, pulling you in for another quick peck. “I can live with that.”

Milo let out an exaggerated groan, dramatically slapping his hands over his eyes. “Ugh! I’m never getting a girlfriend if that’s what you have to do.”

“Good,” you said, shooting him a wink. “No girlfriends until you’re thirty.”

Rafe laughed again, and Milo just sighed, completely over it. “Can we just go to the park now? Please?”

You shook your head, smiling at how easily the moment turned light again. “You two have fun. I’ll see you later.”

You headed out the door, the sound of your nephew still groaning in the background making you smile as you went, promising yourself you’d answer whatever questions Rafe had about your parents, the second you two snuggled up in his bed at night.

I love your mermaid siren au is there any information you just want to info dump I'd love to hear it

Every time I post and disappear it’s like taking deep breaths before diving back into the water. Maybe this will be my last dive ✊

Thank yall for liking the all for the fish doodles so much but this will be my last post until next Mermay :)

Info dump below 👇

#1 Magic

Mermaids are capable of manipulating ocean and the weather to some little degree. The cousins are not an exception ☝️

Nicky is the weakest of the three and the most he can do is cause the water around him to bubble. Andrew and Aaron cannot control the water but can cause the weather to act up (only in a certain radius of their location) and only when they do it together. During a very heated argument about Neil and Kevin’s stay in the pod, Aaron and Andrew caused a tiny rainstorm above them until Andrew realized he was caring too much and pulled back.

#2 Roland

I originally ignored him a bit but my sister brought him up so now there’s lore for him too. Roland is a human that Andrew used to see on land before he decided to stay in the water for good. It happened for no more than a year. Andrew would bring his family with him to Eden’s (a bar near the sea) and let them explore the human building and activities until he was done.

#3 Other kids

Because Milo’s version of AFTF isn’t going to be part of the fic, I didn’t do any plot building for the Foxes kids. Imagine what you’d like on how and if they’re present

#4 Milo’s love interest

Milo’s future partner, if they were in AFTF, would probably be a human Milo would abandon the sea to be with. That, or they’d be a mermaid Milo would secretly see until he was ready to include them into the Monsters pod

#5 Birth(?)

Sirens and Mermaids give birth similar to dolphins. It’s quick and there’s little fuss unless it is the head/leader of a pod. Sirens, however, are very anxious about it since some blood releases into the water and that makes them targets for predators (even asshole mermaids looking to kill a siren for fun)

Mermaids sometimes weave baskets for their infants or even decorative gifts

#6 Vegan?

Mermaids are omnivores and will eat sea plants and fish. However, the monsters usually don’t since Andrew hates greens and he does most of the hunting. If they crave a snack, sometimes Nicky and Aaron will go plant picking. Kevin, being that sirens are strictly carnivorous, only tells Andrew off about the quantity of his meals. Those lectures never go well (it’s not right for someone to tell the head of a pod to eat less since they need to be in the best shape to handle the responsibilities)

Monster Neil AUs are the only ones where I let Neil be a carnivore. I usually HC that although he is not vegan/vegatarian/other, he is repulsed by meat sometimes. (Reminds him of too much butchered human flesh)

[skelebratz-artblog]

big fan of @salad-006's fnae au, i don't make fan content too often but sometimes something grabs my noggin and gives me shaken baby syndrome

click for better quatlity, close-ups and other hcs under the cut

*that one part is supposed to say "tom rolls them back"

edd/milo:

the milo suit was the first one made, so it's rougher and scratchier. edd complains about it being itchy

kids are a lot rougher with him for some ungodly reason

gameplay-wise, works like freddy. instead of a laugh signaling his movement, he has horribly squeaky joints. goes down both east and west hall

"can't seem to get a good look at the new night guard" until night 6

matt/meeko:

meeko (programmed character) gets frustrated when people get his name wrong

due to matt's "early departure," he can't do many cool ghost things besides Schmovement and simple electronic manipulation for speech. (that's why his eyes are the same)

matt tends to be treated like a 12 year old despite his efforts to remind the others that he's "technically 16"

gameplay-wise, functions as bonnie.

tom/brock:

brock used to have a matching tooth on the left side of his jaw but a teen ripped it off as a dare from their friend

brock is a "rebellious rascal" architype

tom already had a weird feeling about bing before his death, so he's not too surprised

not too fond of that new night guard

gameplay-wise, functions as chica. can be heard in the kitchen looking for booze.

tord:

was very reluctant of applying to Catty Cafe but was comedically rejected from every other job he applied to

fired for "being insane" after reporting that the animatronics were talking to him

very suspicious of bing

not too fond of that badger fellow

bing:

very obviously evil but tries to play it off

gets away with everything because the police are hilariously incompetent (just like in real life!)

makes tons of budget cuts (don't put too much trust in the food, avoid the ball pit at all costs)

larry (?):

my name is larry. i made the mimic. it was difficult to put the pieces together. but unfortunately, something went so wrong. and now i can't do anything, but sing this stupid song!

Devotion

Final part of the craving you series

Dark! Wanda Maximoff x reader

Minors dni!! Masterlist°•☆

Summary-your living in Wandas house, she pays your wage and the bills, she takes care of you.. would it be so bad to step back and only be hers

Warnings- manipulation, dark! Wanda, obsessive Wanda, unhealthy obsession, potential Stockholm syndrome?, not proofread!!, snappy Wanda, coercion,

Wordcount - 1.3k

A/n- obviously this is the last chapter for the craving you story :( I rlly enjoyed writing smthng different for once and again I'm srry it took so long to get out :(( !! The main story is over but I will write drabbles or headcannons if anyone's interested <3

Wanda was finally at peace. A blissful weight off her shoulders she hadn't felt in months since meeting you. For the first time in what felt like her years she could sleep the whole night through without worrying about you, your whereabouts or who you could be with. This new found bliss was all because her plan to isolate and make you hers was finally falling into place like pieces of a puzzle, a satisfying finish. She had you in watching distance 24/7 and when she didn't, she wasn't more than twenty feet away. You slept with her, the guest rooms which had been under 'renovations' since you arrived in her home had to be completely redone again after she told you they found plenty of black mold inside them, just one of the many ways she'd managed to keep you close without making you suspicious. She'd even gone as far as to cut wires in your car so you'd both have to go in her car to work, she just wanted you safe after all.

After about a week at Wanda's your cats had somehow re appeared aswell, unscathed and well fed. You'd been heading out to her car for work when you'd seen the two lay together next to a hedge, Nixie protectively infront of Milo in a motherly sort of way. Obviously you were ecstatic and swept the two up quickly to show Wanda who did her best to look surprised at the re appearing cats.

"Wow.. how could they ever end up here?.." She knew you were stupid naive enough to fall for what she said even when she barely hid the truth from you. In actual fact the cats had been in the room next to you all this time you'd just never thought to question what could lie behind the other doors in Wanda's house.

To be honest you never really questioned her, not anymore atleast. It felt wrong to not do as she asked when she was letting you and your two cats stay rent free with her. I mean she was such a good person almost angelic in your view these days. You could barely remember the time where she'd had you on your knees begging for your job, all you could think off was the warmth, safety and comfort she provided to you without repayment.

Wanda had planned for this to happen. That by being around her so much you would begin to feel like you owed her, as if she saved your life. Which she did but she was also the reason it had needed saving to begin with. Oh, if it wasn't for her you'd still be living your lonely mundane life all alone. She took great pleasure in watching the change in your behaviour to her. From fear to adoration. The way you began to need her almost crave her presence in a way she had craved you. She saw the glint in your eye when it was time for bed and you knew you'd get to lie next to her the whole night. She saw the way you waited on her every need like a puppy trying to please its owner.

Though this was a good progress to making you hers. Her personal doll. It wasn't quite enough for Wanda. She wanted more. She wanted to make you see there was no point to work when you had no bills to pay. Get you to stop searching for a new place to stay and stop your income therefore making you further dependent and indebted to her. She wanted you to be a good little stay at home who waited by at the door for her and hated being separate from her. She needed you to become this. She also knew no job meant you wouldn't have any excuses to be out without her eyes on you at all time. It meant you couldn't find someone else to replace her. She should be the only person in your life.

She brought it up during dinner one night just to see how you'd react to such an idea.

"So darling, I've been thinking and wouldn't it be much less stressful for you if you didn't work? I mean its not like you have bills to pay." She played around with the steak on her plate aimlessly pushing it around as she asked you.

"Well.." You gulped unsure what to say. To not work is a dream really but you need money to find a new place and eventually pay back Wanda's kindness. "That sounds really nice but without a job I'd be under your feet forever." You miss the look of excitement which crosses her face at that prospect. If you next to her. Forever. "And I'd never be able to pay you back for your generosity."

Wanda's eye twitched ever so slightly at your response. Of course someone as sweet as you would unintentionally set her off course by wanting to be helpful. It was so cute that she was hardly bad but it had made it hard for her to make any further argument.

"You don't have to pay me back sweetheart. And property is much too expensive for someone like you right now. I mean I just want what's best for you after all." Her hand finds place over yours and gently rubs over your soft and delicate skin.

What she'd said had made your head hurt and all your thoughts go mushy in your brain. She just wanted what was best for you and obviously someone like Wanda knew a lot about what would be right. So maybe she was.. maybe her idea would be helpful for you.

"Uh.. I.. I mean I just don't want to be so... useless." As you uttered those words Wanda felt as though her heart could shatter. You were not useless. Especially not to her. You were her reason to breath. Her sigh of relief. Hers. Her saviour.

"Don't talk about yourself like that." Her voice snappy in a way which made you feel small under her hardening gaze which threatened your every move.

"I'm.. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.."

"I know you didn't. Don't apologise, just eat and stop troubling your little mind."

Dinner was fairly silent after that and so was the rest of the evening. You curled up in a chair near the fireplace and Wanda tapping away on her computer almost purposely avoiding looking at you. For you the opposite, you felt you couldn't look away from her beauty wanting to admire her. The pair of reading glasses perched on her nose that kept sliding off and her hair, oh her hair, the way she kept waving her hands through it everytime something annoyed her was so satisfying and hot?...

Night soon fell and you climbed into bed next to Wanda. An enjoyable time for the both of you and yet another moment where Wanda held all the control. Every night just as you fell asleep she made sure to turn down the thermostat so you'd have no choice but to curl into her body and snuggle into the heat that radiated off her. She was particularly fond of when you fell into a deep sleep, when she got to plant soft kisses against you and perhaps more? When she got to see you up close as peaceful as ever. When she'd whisper concerning sweet things into your ears without you even moving an inch.

"Your mine, aren't you sweet girl? Yeah that's it dont even question what I'm saying."

Tonight felt different to you, as you chambered into the left side of Wanda's four poster King sized bed you thought to yourself about what she'd said at dinner. Would it really be so bad to quit your job? Would it be so bad just to stay here with her and the cats? I mean her mansion did have everything you'd ever need so you could hardly even imagine becoming bored. And.. I mean Wanda suggested it so she mustn't mind the idea.. Hmmm she's probably right. She has been so far.

Ok wait so idk if thisd been asked before but i suddenly thought abt it while doing another Haha What If Im The Mc daydream

How would the Milos react if mc wants to break up with him? And make it clear its not his fault, and there's no new lovers, it's not because of some external cause

Mc just feels like *they're* not the right person for *him*, and they couldn't be convinced otherwise

They'd all be pretty devastated though in different ways.

PreMilo would seriously be crying. What do you mean you're not right for me? Of course you are! With enough convincing, he probably would be able to accept it but he will keep on stalking the MC for a while and attempt to become the person that they like. I think depending how desperate he becomes he might even try to change his identity just to be with the MC again.

Violence Milo won't accept this, he CAN'T accept this. You made him exactly what you wanted right? A dog cannot leave his owner and he won't let you abandon him. You know the endings when he protects you from the world, right?

Manipulation Milo is hysterical. He can't fathom why you would throw him away? You're not good enough for me?? He's not good enough for you! He would do everything in his power to convince you trying to guilt trip you the entire time through. No matter what he has to do, begging, manipulation, changing his very being. Anything at all.

Perfect Milo will turn into whoever you wish. Not that you could escape him anyways.

[thebeesareback]

I just finished the audio book for Donna Tartt's novel The Secret History, so naturally I had to have a lil scroll to see what everyone thought on Tumblr. To add to the discourse: (spoilers, obviously)

Also trigger warning: incest, abuse, murder, alcoholism

Why is Tumblr so in love with Henry Winter?! He murders the farmer, Bunny, and possibly tries to kill Charles. He's manipulative and may well try to make Richard take the fall (har har) for Bunny's death. In the garden scene, he admits to being a psychopath/sociopath. Oh, and he's unbelievably pretentious

Also, why are there so many cute pictures of the twins hanging out? Their relationship was strained, incestuous, co-dependent, abusive. The whole uwu thing baffles me

Richard has a very obvious foot fetish and nobody is talking about it

The novel is quite funny, and I wish more people picked up on that. Most of the humour comes from Francis - the pinz nez stays ON during sex; no, Bunny's parents weren't very upset when one of their grandchildren ruined Francis' scarf, they were preoccupied by their missing son; and there's a throwaway line where the art students eat sushi with paintbrushes instead of chopsticks. I also liked when the twins panicked after Bunny's murder and decided to start repotting tulips

The farmer is referred to by name twice. Once in a newspaper, once by Bunny. Strange to think that he's the person in the squad who might actually have a conscience. Incidentally, Milo, the golden retriever who finds Bunny's body, has his name mentioned more frequently.

Richard is a smelly, badly dressed misanthrope. As is Henry, and Charles towards the end. Francis, Camilla and Hampden itself provide the (admittedly gorgeous) dark academia aesthetic, but if you want to end that dream, remember how terrible everything would have smelled. I guess the difference between appearance and reality is a pretty big theme

Julian is very creepy, obviously, but I was surprised that he wasn't more involved in the plot. He seems like exactly the sort of person to start a cult. I'd also like to know if he and Henry were in a sexual relationship, because we see them kiss once and then it's never mentioned again

Foreshadowing is done EXCELLENTLY through the book. There were a few characters who were described as ghostly at the start, and I THINK they're the ones who survive. Also, Tartt loves her pathetic fallacy (not phallusy).

Time is very strange. If you bothered to plot out all of the events, I don't think it quite makes sense. Term starts in September, say Richard joins Julian's classes in early October? That means all the picnics, the Sunday walks with Bunny, the trips to Francis' house, all happen over about five weeks, leading to the 12th November when Charles, Henry and Francis kill the farmer. Unreliable narrator, I guess

A lot of things about Richard's character make more sense when you realise the abuse he grew up experiencing and witnessing. Poor Ms Papen. Odd that Richard's parents don't visit him when he's in hospital

Funny that everyone is surprised when the twins' incest comes out. Like, they had an orgy at the start of the baccanal. Call me a prude, but I wouldn't attend an orgy with a family member

I would go for girls' night with Judy Poovey

Also, the book was published in 1992. Does anyone know when Prince Charles and Camila Parker Bowles went public with their relationship? Seems like an unbelievable coincidence otherwise

If anyone has an actual criteria for identifying alcohol abuse/alcoholism, please lmk if any of the main six characters AREN'T alcoholics. I'm pretty sure I got liver cirrhosis and lung cancer just from reading this book

[feralferretxp]

I've been meaning to introduce one of my Storybots ocs that I've had for a while but here we go. Let me introduce you to...

Melissa Malware

She's a totally normal storybot who is definitely not a shapeshifting virus who has alterative motives for taking over the computer world! :D

Melissa is inspired by the Melissa and I LOVE YOU computer viruses, influencing both her name and theme of spreading love worldwide. In an alternate universe called the LoveBug AU, she launches a campaign called "Project I LOVE YOU", encouraging StoryBots to express love in various forms, aiming to boost mental well-being and promote world peace. She also advocates for self-care, which leads people to work less and less, eventually creating a job crisis in the computer world.

However, Melissa's true intent is to infect others, causing them to slack off from work, which in turn slows down real-world computers, much like a virus. As her followers idolize her, they unknowingly spread her influence, infecting others with the same behavior.

Melissa's origins lie in a more abstract form sent into the internet by her creator. Her mission was to oversee a planted computer worm and ensure its success without interference, remaining in the shadows. However, her plan was unexpectedly derailed when a young Bang, wandering in the internet department while accompanying his father, mistook the worm for a colorful gummy and ate it.

Enraged and shocked, Melissa's task was ruined, forcing her to shift focus and watch over Bang as he grew up, tracking the effects of the worm on him. Over the years, she observed his growing forgetfulness and other changes (I'll make a future post about this and my theory in more detail) as she remained in the shadows. During this time, Melissa herself evolved. Watching storybots and their society, she became curious about life beyond her virus role. She gradually changed her appearance to resemble a storybot and secretly longed for a life where she wasn’t bound to a pre-programmed destructive endgame.

As she grew fond of the attention and adoration from those who saw her as one of them rather than a virus, Melissa tried to prolong her influence and delay her inevitable mission of ruining the computer world, torn between fulfilling her creator’s purpose and finding belonging among storybot society.

When Bang becomes an adult and the computer worm fully integrates with his programming, Melissa is devastated to discover that the worm is now inseparable from Bang, and removing it would kill it. This ruins her original plan, forcing her to adapt. Instead of separating the worm, she decides to use Bang to spread the infection.

Melissa presents herself as a sweet, humble activist and invites Bang to join her "Project I LOVE YOU," using his recognizable and beloved status in the community to help promote her cause. Behind her friendly demeanor, however, Melissa despises Bang, seeing him as a foolish and undeserving figure who, for some reason, is adored by everyone. Despite her loathing, she plays the role of a supportive ally, manipulating him into unknowingly aiding her true goal, while he remains completely oblivious to her hatred and intentions.

So in a nutshell, Bang has no enemies... except for one which is Melissa because she hates his guts LMAO. But yeah that's the LoveBug AU basically. There's more to it but that's for another time.

One important thing about Melissa is that her and Milo (@supgoddo's oc) are in true real love and are perfect for each other YIPPIEE GRRR I LOVE THEM SM

Anyways that's it for now for Melissa! Just wanted to introduce her character and stuff. Live laugh love Melissa <3

[f4ggydog]

hiiii milo i just wanted to say that i love your writing and have been thinking about age gap lottienat all day thanks to you eek

age gap yj ships are peak and I will not be silenced!!!

thinking about older lottie being attached to teen nat the second she lays eyes on her, just craving that sweet thing all for her own. she catches nat at a bad time, slumped against a wall and smoking cigarettes to cope with the disasters of her life. she's without a father and her mother is not a suitable older figure at all. nat's extremely down on her luck.

that's when lottie comes into the picture. she can tell just from looking at nat that she has a difficult life and immediately approaches the young thing without any hesitancy.

them having a long chat about hope and what it means to lead a life of satisfaction and other culty nonsense. of course nat isn't receptive at first and immediately shrugs off lottie's propaganda. she's distrustful and nat doesn't take herself for a moron. but when she thinks about how screwed her life is, lottie's idea of peace appeals to her more and more.

lottie's voice is an angelic tone sweeping nat into the illusion of safety. it isn't long before lottie's charisma is inviting enough for nat to get sucked in and join her compound.

when nat's at the compound, lottie prioritizes her over everyone else. she hosts one on one 'healing sessions' with nat to perform exercises to help her seek spiritual guidance. really what that means is nat's getting her pussy ate!

omg nat getting so manipulated that she can't ignore lottie's wishes at some point. lottie came to her as an older figure and nat's got none of those in her life rn. lottie's all she has and she'll believe that lottie's fingering is for a good cause if it means lottie will keep nat around.

nat getting dependent on lottie, offering herself as a sacrifice or a little sex toy for lottie to use when she's stressed. oh lord....

[yukiicantdraw]

Its finally dOoOoOoOnEeEe more ramblings below (including ship charts) :]

[I'm just gonna copy and paste the same thing from discord-] Philotes 22-25 172 cm (5'8'') Female Astronomy & Space science major Goal: make a friend Likes: Taking pictures of random stuff (Candy wrappers on the floor, the sky, dead animals on the road, random ugly looking things, beautiful sceneries, etc.), Space, Receiving gifts and compliments, Racoons, hugging people Dislikes: Loud noises, Owls Background: ??? extra stuff:

mid way through a route, if she finds out what Milo's favourite animal is, she ends up using a nickname related to it

For canon endings, she’d more likely end up with the burning and killer ending. (because I doubt she'd know how to make drugs) But if given the circumstance, I would say the wedding ending and husband ending since technically she got what she wanted in the end in a bit of an extreme way

In the violence route, Philotes is slightly more protective of Milo. not really to his level of protectiveness, but probably slightly more worried about him compared to the other routes

in the manipulation route, since Milo doesn't cook much, she'd be cooking basic meals over time

I didn't really want to put that much thought into Philotes as a character (since she was mainly made for fun anyways) so enjoy this vague description of her as a character :D

I still genuinely enjoy writing her as a character, I'd just rather have a break from writing in-depth stuff and worrying about backstory or internal draw backs and just go balling

[lanawinterscigarettes]

wait omg what abt a love quinn x reader where reader walks in on her murdering someone??

I love this idea! I hope I did it justice <3

Love Knows Best (Love Quinn x fem reader)

Warnings: murder, panic attack, manipulation/gaslighting, Love is kind of toxic here tbh (but we love her anyway)

You weren't supposed to be there.

Love had counted on you not returning home for another hour or so, which would've given her the perfect amount of time to kill Milo and dispose of his body before you arrive. Unfortunately for her, that's not what happened.

You'd mentioned the day before how you were feeling uncomfortable with him hanging around still when he should've left for Bali already, and she happened to agree with you. So what did she decide to do about it? Make him disappear, of course.

Her plan was to get rid of him and then act sad and heartbroken about him "leaving" without telling her goodbye. Not only would the excuse make perfect sense, but with him out of the picture she could focus more on her relationship with you. Not to mention you'd certainly be a good shoulder for her to cry on as she pretended to be upset over his sudden departure.

That was the plan, anyway. But it didn't work, because she left out an important variable to her little "what if" scenario- you. She hadn't expected you to get home so early.

She couldn't hear the door unlock or your footsteps coming down the hall over the sound of her own heart beating in her chest, the knife in her hand quickly darting out to slice open his throat as he stood there in front of her.

"Love?"

Your voice made her freeze, and she slowly turned to face you with an almost frantic look. "Baby..." she murmured out the pet name, her gaze full of affection, though you were too focused on the dead body to notice.

"Wh- What did you do to him?" Your voice sounded incredibly panicked, and she couldn't really say she blamed you. "W- Why did you kill him?"

"It was self defense," she blurted out as the first thing that popped into her mind, remaining surprisingly calm given the fact she just killed someone while you were desperately trying not to start spiraling at the graphic scene. "I told him that I didn't want to see him anymore, and he got angry with me. I had to stop him before he did something bad."

Despite trying her best to sound sincere, you didn't look as though you believe her words in the slightest. "N- No, I- I saw you. He was just standing there, and then- then you killed him-" You let out a choked sob as you tried not to panic, your vision growing blurry as a sudden wave of lightheadedness overtook you.

"You don't know what you saw," came out her reply in a sharper tone than you were used to, one that she only used when she was frustrated. Her gaze softened, however, when she saw you on the verge of a panic attack. "Baby... Baby, hey, look at me," she gently coaxed while reaching out to take your face in her hands, trying to get you to focus on her and not the dead body on the floor.

"You killed him!" You wailed hysterically as you tried to pull away from her, something that made her eyes narrow in irritation.

"I did it to protect myself, and I did it to protect you," she snapped in a much harsher tone than you were used to. "I did it for us. I did it to help keep us safe. Don't act like you wouldn't do the same for me."

"N- No... I wouldn't kill anyone..." You insisted, your breathing shallow and quick as you really began to panic at her words.

"You would to protect me," she insisted as she moved her hands from your face down to your shoulders, her fingers digging into the skin there as she spoke. "People think that he already left for Bali, so that's what we're going to say happened. If anyone asks, we haven't seen or heard from him since yesterday, understood?"

It was hard to respond giving the fact that you were currently hyperventilating, but you did your best to nod regardless, not in full control of your actions. She was getting you to be an accomplice to her crime, and you were just letting her do it.

"Good. Now, I'm going to clean up the body, and later tonight we're going to go dump it where no one can find him." She leaned in and pressed a surprisingly tender kiss to your forehead. "I won't let anything happen to us, okay? I promise."

All you could do was stand there, frozen with fear and shock as you watched her begin to get rid of the mess she made. She wasn't at all who you thought she was, and it made you feel sick to your stomach.

You trusted her. You used to, at least, before all of this. You wanted to believe that she was telling you the truth, that it was self defense, an accident, whatever kind of lie that could be used to cover up your girlfriend being a killer.

Besides, there was no way you could leave even if you wanted to. The Quinn family practically owned the LA police department, and there was no way they'd open an investigation into Milo's murder with their daughter as the prime suspect. You were stuck.

But maybe it wouldn't be all bad. After all, she said she did it to protect you. Maybe she really did love and care about you, in her own way.

And just like the saying went, love could conquer all. You supposed in a situation like this, it meant that love knew best, too. Your Love did, anyway, and she wasn't going to let you think otherwise.

End notes: I feel like the ending might've been a little wonky but I hope you liked it regardless <3

Jinx MK AU

OK, i have had a devastating idea for a LMK au…

It’s Jinx MK.

Synopsis:

Takes place of after season 3

Mk: Jinx

Wukong: Vi

Azure Lion: Silco 

Peng: Sevika

Mei: Ekko

Pigsy/Tang/Sandy: Milo and Clanger RIP

(Pigsy could be Vander approximate- but only as Warwick)

Piltover: Celestial Realm

Zaun: Mortal Realm

Basically, this AU replaces season 4 of LMK.

MK is in the shits after LBD and not having a good time. He and Wukong are chillin when the celestial realm comes a knocking for the samadhi fire/ LBD shit. Wukong in an effort to protect MK, says he’ll take all the punishment, even if that means putting on a new circlet.

Meanwhile, a vengeful Azure Lion is working in the shadows with the crew to get back at Wukong and kill the Jade Emperor. They made themselves a deal, you see, with a certain 9 headed demon.

Anyway, Mk is riddled with guilt and is willing to do just about anything to save Wukong. Enter Azure Lion… 

MK basically agrees to help Azure procure the Jade Emperor's power to save his mentor. He just wants to help.

But why is this happening? Basically in this AU, me thinks 9 headed demon got shunted from the main timeline to this timeline after season 5. He is real pissed at MK, but he now has new knowledge- he could save the world and break the cycle. He could be the hero.

So he modifies his plan. He tips off Azure to the world-ending consequences of taking all that power within himself and enlightens him that there is another way, in which that power can be distributed and manipulated in much smaller amounts.

*cough-shimmer-cough*

He won’t be able to take over the celestial realm himself, but he’ll be able to empower the people to do so under his command.

All he needs is MK. Azure is made aware of what MK’s true nature is. Azure plans to use MK to take the Jade Emperor’s power and then kill him to ensure the safety of the universe, but obviously, things don’t go according to plan.

So MK. Because season 4 hasn’t happened, he doesn’t know what he is, he's basically in the same state he was at the beginning of season 4.

When he faces the Jade Emperor, who is aware of MK's true nature, he gets into MK's head and plants the idea that he is the Harbinger of Chaos. (It has a very similar effect to Ink MK) But in doing so, it causes MK to accidentally unlock his supersonic monkey powers.

Now in feral mode, he kills the Jade Emperor, but with a HEAVY price.

He levels the entire city, killing nearly everyone, including most of his friends. He also breaks the staff.

Now we are in highly chaotic and unpredictable territory.

Azure and crew try to recover the Jade Emperor’s power, but it was fractured by MK’s might. They get some of it, but the Celestial realm descends fast and obtains the rest. This sets up a more even power split and high tension, as the celestial realm barely has enough power to keep the universe intact while Azure only has enough power to control the mortal realm, but can’t do anything about the celestial realm. 

*cough* cough* again- shimmer* cough*

But that’s the future, and we’re still in the past. 

In all the chaos Wukong made his way to the city to help out. He doesn’t know where MK is and teams up with the gang, (Pigsy, Tang, Sandy, and Mei) to try and save the city and find him.

That doesn’t happen.

Wukong watches his friends die. (Mei survives but she kinda disappears)

Wukong rushes to find MK, only to find half of his staff and a fading Jade Emperor, with the sharp end of the broken staff lodged in his chest.

Wukong watches in stunned silence as the Jade Emperor, stripped of his power and already slowly dying- has been further brutalized in his weakened state. As he disintegrates the staff clinks to the ground, covered in golden blood. Enter- well, i think you know who enters. 

I don’t think i need to describe what happens next, but just for Monkey King's sake, I’ll explain why. He has basically watched his successor become everything he feared himself to be and repeated the most violent wrongs of Wukong’s past. His friends are dead and his staff, which in a way is his oldest companion, has been destroyed by the person he entrusted to wield it. He’s overwhelmed, confused, scared... he doesn't think before what happens next...

So the scene plays out just like Arcane, except this is what he says:

"Maybe I did choose the wrong successor"

He realizes, much like Vi, too late what he’s done.

He has to separate himself to calm down, but sees Azure approach MK. He trys to act, but everything fades to black. 

Much like Silco, Azure makes a deal with some Celestial Soldiers to basically capture Wukong and put him in the Scroll of Memory. Wukong’s Circlet came off as soon as the Jade Emperor died, but he was so overwhelmed that he didn’t notice a Celestial Guard sneak up on him with an inky scroll. Azure knew he needed a contingency for Wukong. 

Mk, meanwhile, breaks.

Azure approaches from behind to kill the Harbinger of Chaos, only to see a broken and abandoned MK rush to him for comfort. Betrayed by Wukong too, Azure takes in Mk, just like Silco did Powder.

So very VERy dark premise and ripe for drama. I’m a huge Sunburst Duo addict and a Vi/Jinx dynamic for them is basically the whole reason I wrote this insanity. 

But i’m sure you are certainly wondering- where the hell is Caitlyn

-i mean Macaque >:)

Surprise surprise the universe jumping is very relevant, go figure.

Macaque from the main season 5 timeline gets shunted to this universe, but in the present day. Unlike 9, who got sent back in time, Macaque basically gets there parallel to season 5 time.

So he is Caitlyn- he saves Wukong from the scroll of memory, and together, they try to track down MK. Now, Macaque’s main objectives are to:

a) Find a way to get back to the main timeline and

b) Find the 9-Headed-Demon, who he suspects is behind all of this

(I think the reason Macaque ended up in this universe is because he and Wukong were trying to track down the 9-Headed Demon in order to help understand his cryptic message to MK at the end of season 5, and something went wrong.)

Anyway, Macaque hasn’t seen this world’s MK yet by the time he gets to Wukong.

Like Caitlyn, he learns that there is a mystery afoot surrounding the Jade Emporer's murderer. In the Celestial realm, they have tried to resume business as usual, but they are still in shambles from the death of the Jade Emperor and are struggling to keep the universe from falling apart. More than that, what catches Macaque's attention is that everybody is looking for the Monkey King.

Azure plotted the whole attack to be a surprise, and because MK defeated the Jade Emporer quickly and in such a destructive manner, by the time reinforcements arrived and could stabilize the Jade Emporer's power, nearly everyone present at the time of the attack was dead, hidden, or gone (save for the Corrupt officers in the celestial army working for Azure). All they found was the Monkey King's broken staff.

The Monkey King appeared to be the prime suspect in the murder, even though his location (in the scroll of memory) was unknown.

So Macaque gets Wukong out of the scroll, and he informs Macaque that this is all Azure's fault and that MK is in trouble.

And so the story unfolds...

I haven’t decided yet how Macaque will react to Jinx-ified MK, but it will be different from Arcane in some way.

But what about this universe’s Macaque?

Well, so in this universe, Macaque is on the outside of this entire conflict. Season 4 hasn't happened, and he only sees the aftermath of the conflict. From his perspective, MK has joined Azure Lion, killed all his friends, and broken the Monkey King's staff. Wukong has disappeared for no explainable reason. So for Macaque pre-season 4, his priority is to stay as far away from MK as possible. As much as he liked the kid, this isn't worth it. (He doesn't care about MK to the extent that post-season 5 Macaque does.) He does team up with some people though...

Remember Mei-

She is among the few survivors of the attack on the city, and she takes on Ekko’s role. She is working with Redson and Macaque, who both embody a lost cause sentiment toward MK and even some hatred because of his actions.

Mei has an internal conflict in this situation. Given her past with MK and the lengths he went to save her from the Samadi Fire, she struggles to give up hope even when it seems obvious that the MK she knew is gone.

So yeah that's an afternoon I'll never get back.

The only thing i am truly struggling with is Victor and Jayce. I mean, as I’ve set it up I don’t really need a Victor and Jayce, but come on- it’s not Arcane without the doomed yaoi. I'm open to suggestions.

Also would love additional feedback on this. It would be so fun to make this a fan-fiction or comic, but I don’t have the time for either rn. if anyone is interested in doing something with this feel free- just tag me cause i wanna see. go ahead and change it- whatever you want i’m letting this be free real estate- go nutts. idk maybe i’ll make some fan-art scenes after the semester ends, we’ll see.
