I LOVE your Sakura AU, thank you so much for making it 🥹
Even though her ending is supposed to be “good”, I always thought that canon didn’t do her justice and threw any character development she had out of the window so she can be with Sasuke
I SO wanted her to finally move on and just let go
And I don’t have anything against Sasusaku
But I think it’d be much more beautiful if Sakura long let go of her feelings by the time Sasuke came to his senses and they developed their relationship TOGETHER from the START
And, once again, your work is AMAZING and I can’t wait for next pieces ❤️
Btw, can I ask a question?) Will we see Naruto’s and Sasuke’s reaction to her condition (maybe flashback to before she left the village?), if not, can you please tell me a bit about it? I can’t imagine them to ignore her after the incident, especially considering that they are at fault as usual

Thank you so much for the kind words! I've also never been a fan of how Sakura ended up. I have no beef with SasuSaku, but my biggest issue was that we never saw Sasuke try to make up/connect with Sakura in the same way we saw him do with Naruto, so their romance in Boruto just felt so...abrupt?
As for what happens to Sakura and her friends....
Sasuke was essentially put on probation/jailed, but broke out and defected to Otogakure as canon. This devastates Sakura, as she's both in deep denial about his contribution to her injuries and also the fact that she basically threw herself in there for nothing. Kakashi shuts down completely. It's a nightmare replay of his own past, including the female team-mate being horrifically injured by the chidori. The guilt of everything is eating him alive so he basically withdraws into himself and uses her demotion to civilian status as a way to trick himself into thinking that if he just 'rips off the bandaid' and cut ties, she'll be able to move on more easily.
Naruto is the only person who is really able/willing to face justice. After the incident, he was basically also put on probation/awaiting trial but busted himself out to join Jiraya.
So for context, Sakura got clapped hard by the Rasengan/Chidori combo (hearing gone, nerve damage, eyes shot etc) and basically had to be put in a coma to try and stop the damage from getting worse, but unfortunately none of the medics in Konoha had the ability to reverse anything but the most superficial damage. So Naruto joined Jiraya in an attempt to find and bring the only person in the world who could give Sakura a sliver of hope.
I felt like this worked well with canon and the desperation to get Tsunade to be hokage and Naruto basically begged her on his hands and knees to help Sakura. Tsunade made it there in the nick of time managed to save everything but her eyes.
But Sakura's life has fallen apart, her career is over, her parents dead from Konoha Crush and her eyes gone...and Naruto is the most convenient and available person to take out all her rage on, so...while he deserves a lot of that rage..she is essentially punching down on who she perceives to be the cause of all her problems.
Lee is in the same boat as her, but while he tries very hard to be there for her, Sakura can't stand to be with him right now, as it just makes the reality of life hit that much worse- especially when she finds out there's a surgery that might give him a better chance than she'll ever have.
And Ino visits often at first, but then it's awkward...and painful as the weeks go by. They have lunch and gossip but at some point, there's not much a shinobi and civilian have in common, especially after the shortage of manpower post Konoha-crush has Ino entrenched in the shinobi life more than ever before.
I hope this answered some stuff! Thank you so much for the questions and the interest! I love Sakura and I just wanna give her the development and power she deserves!!

Oyo, um I read one of your fics and it was rlly good. I'm pretty sure it was one of the 'they end up another universe twst' fics. They're rlly juicy BTW
I was thinking like...what happened if otherverse bois met normalverse yuu and they actually start liking them? Sorta yandere-ish type stuff to the point where they don't wanna leave normalverse yuu? (Yes, I've been calling normal yuu 'normalverse' yuu bc it makes a bit of sense lmao)
Understandable if you're a bit uncomfy with this :)
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
♡︎This is quite an interesting idea! I had though about it once but since you asked now I'm really going to write it! Also I'm not the best with yandere themes so I hope this is good enough!
♡︎Includes: OB! Characters
♡︎Warning: Malleus's part made me kinda sad, IM SO SORRY MALLEUS LOVERS. Also all of them need therapy.
[AU Masterlist]
Tumblr media
NV - Normalverse (Thank you for the idea Anon!)
First things first, in general, I believe that they would understand that you aren’t the same person from their Universe, however, this wouldn’t excuse the fact that every time they see your face they are thrown back to your relationship back in their world, which to say the least is not the best.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Riddle
There would be no doubt that he would dislike you intensely. Moreover, the fact that this Riddle would be even worse than the pre-overblot Riddle in the NV would put you in a difficult position.
The first time he spots you, he would be blinded by rage and probably try to behead you. Fortunately, Trey and Cater quickly save you, taking you as far away as possible from Tyrant Riddle.
He will do anything to find you, and he will have no tolerance for your actions. At the slightest inconvenience you cause, he will be right behind you, ready to tell you how much of an annoyance you are.
But you catch on to his game pretty quickly, so you counter him by being the very definition of perfection. You make sure not to break a single rule and set an example for everyone around you, and by the Sevens, that only makes him even angrier.
But is he really angry? He can’t deny that he feels slightly impressed. Among everyone else at this strange college, you are the only one who comes close to reaching the level of perfection he demands.
Slowly, he finds himself growing fonder of you. He starts thinking about bringing you back with him once he finds a way to return to his universe. You’d fit perfectly in the castle with him, and he’s certain his mother would have approved of you.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Leona
When it comes to Leona, he is more annoyed with the NV version of you than anything else. After all, you were always pestering him about being lazy and irresponsible. He had been plotting to have you exiled once he took the throne by killing his brother.
So, the first time he spots you, he's ready to turn around and leave, not wanting to hear your nagging. But that doesn’t happen. You speak to him as if he were a normal person, with no harsh words, and even smile at him when you finish talking.
Is he seeing things? Why are you so different in this universe? And why is he enjoying this new kind of attention so much?
Yet, he remains rude, constantly sending glares your way. He firmly believes you're trying to trick him into something malicious.
Still, you bring him lunch and talk about your day. You are strangely kind, something he never thought he would experience, especially from you. You are the first person ever to treat him like this.
Slowly, something starts to shift inside him. Your attention becomes something he craves, and he starts becoming obsessed, to the point where he checks if you give the same treatment to others.
And if you do, he makes sure they are out of the picture the next time you look for them. He will ensure that you have only him to turn to, to talk about your day, and to give your full attention.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Azul
OH NO! He’s had enough of your antics ruining his business! Azul puts up a sign with your face and a red cross over it in front of the Monster Lounge. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED IN!
Floyd and Jade find this absolutely hilarious and watch as you stroll into the Monster Lounge without a care in the world. (You’re literally that meme: "This sign won’t stop me, because I can’t read.") They don’t even try to stop you, they’re far too entertained by the thought of seeing how this new Azul will react to the chaos.
Let’s just say that Azul quickly learns the hard way that you aren’t here to ruin his business. Instead, you seem determined to ruin his reputation by being overly affectionate and making him squirm with your sweet words in front of all his clients, no less.
He tries to distance himself, avoiding your gaze and setting boundaries, but you keep coming back. In that, you remind him of the version of you from his own universe.
And for some reason, he finds that persistence very attractive. He can’t deny that, before you decided to ruin his business, he used to have a slight crush on you back then.
But now, you aren’t trying to ruin his business. Quite the contrary, you’re a magnet for attention, constantly drawing more customers to the Mostro Lounge.
Slowly, Azul starts losing himself in this fantasy: you and him, together, expanding his business. But at a certain point, he realizes he’s thinking more about you than the money the two of you could make.
He becomes determined to keep you by his side, even if his business suffers because of it. If all it takes to have you is tarnishing a bit of his reputation, then he’s willing to do it.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Jamil
By the Seven, he was already annoyed that Kalim was here, but you too? This was about to be the worst day of his life, two incredibly annoying people threatening to ruin his plans.
He keeps his distance, but when you spot him, he’s about to tell you to go find someone else to bother. Then, you say something completely unexpected: you’re actually annoyed by Kalim’s antics.
You? Annoyed? At Kalim?
He’s taken aback. In his universe, you and Kalim were inseparable friends, always together. But the you from this place is actually bothered by him? He doesn’t even need to know why you’re annoyed. Just the fact that someone finally agrees with him about Kalim makes him incredibly happy.
He enjoys it when you come to him with your frustrations. Whether you’re irritated by Kalim’s constant gifts or his endless parties in your honor, because you feel overwhelmed, Jamil is always there to listen. He savors your complaints, and he’s quick to add his own criticisms about Kalim, which only deepens your dislike for him.
As time goes on, you start finding comfort in Jamil’s presence. His understanding and validation make him seem like a refuge from the chaos that Kalim brings. You begin to rely on him more, and Jamil can’t help but enjoy how your dislike for Kalim boosts his own ego.
Jamil starts subtly shaping your view of Kalim. By reinforcing your negative feelings and positioning himself as your only true ally, he ensures that you depend on him more. He carefully creates situations where he appears better compared to Kalim, making himself seem like the perfect match for you.
Jamil feeds off your growing dislike for Kalim. Your negative feelings towards Kalim seem to boost his ego, and he finds himself loving your voice even more.
You deserve someone who truly understands you, and Jamil believes he’s that person. He’s confident that he’d be the perfect match for you.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Vil
There you are, Neige’s number one fan. He doesn’t even look in your direction, you aren’t worth it. Shouldn’t you be with him, guarding him like the lapdog you are?
Vil has to admit that at least you seem more elegant here. You look more relaxed and gentle, but maybe you were always like that back then. Perhaps he was just too focused on Neige to notice you.
Or maybe this version of you from this universe is simply sweeter and kinder. Perhaps here, you don’t make Neige your whole identity and actually treat Vil like a person rather than just competition for Neige.
Vil is intrigued, he finds you interesting, even. There’s a charm to you that brings him comfort. When he learns that you’re not that close to Neige here, he finds himself feeling pleased. And when you tell him that you find him “oh so much more beautiful,” he realizes that you might not be so bad after all.
Then he becomes attentive to your habits, your likes and dislikes, he memorizes every time you express any small detail about yourself only to use these as a way to create more opportunities to be closer to you. He brings up things you’ve mentioned in passing, showing how attentive he is to your likes and dislikes. His compliments become more personal, always tied to something he knows you value.
He loves especially when you talk so sweetly about him, or when he overhears you telling others how beautiful you think he is.
So whenever you mention Neige in a good way he becomes jealous, you should be exclusively devoted to him, he should be the only thing that crosses your mind and he was to make sure you only see him as your number one option.
He’s determined to make you see him as your everything, and he’ll stop at nothing to ensure that you’re his, completely and utterly.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Idia
(In here both Idia and Ortho from the AU get sent to the NV.)
Ah yes, the ruiner of fun, you.
Back in his world, he used to send his followers to pester you, hoping you'd leave him alone. But no matter what, you always managed to bounce back and ruin his mischievous plans. What was with you, always messing with the fun? If a person or two died, who would even care?
But this version of you seems so much more into the chaos. He watches as you join in Ace's dumb ideas or get excited when Ortho prepares to blast off half the school.
You actually seem like someone who would join in his schemes now, and he'd love to have some help.
Howver the idea of you laughing, scheming, or enjoying yourself with anyone else starts to eat away at him. He starts sabotaging your interactions with others, asking for Ortho’s help to keep Ace busy with other things, making sure you spend more time with him.
He starts sending Ortho on missions to monitor your every move, always keeping tabs on who you’re with and what you’re doing. If anyone tries to get too close to you, they mysteriously vanish from the scene, often without you even noticing.
Everything feels so perfect when the two of you are together, you don’t need anyone else just like he doesn’t need anyone else.
Tumblr media
⋆⋅☆Malleus
Poor Malleus had been treated badly by his crush back in his universe. You never answered the letters he sent, and he had heard that all the little trinkets and flowers were returned because you didn’t want any of them.
So when this version of you from this strange new place treats him with such devotion, such kindness, and accepts his small gifts, even inviting him to spend time with you, he can hardly believe what’s happening.
This was essentially a dream come true for him. He wonders if it had been you he sent all those letters to, whether you would have written him back with the same excitement.
Why, then, hadn’t this lovely and perfect version of you been the one in his universe? Why was he the one left unloved in his world?
He wants to take you with him. Surely, you love him, you wouldn’t be angry if he took you back to his castle. The two of you could finally do all the things he had dreamed about while gazing lovingly at the flowers he once sent you.
After all, why else would you shower him with such kindness? Why else would you invite him to spend time with you? You must love him too.

I thought of this a couple days ago, and I CANNOT stop thinking about it. I saw people making fanfictions about a COD werewolf au.. and it got me thinking about Soap in particular.
Hear me out. Soap’s a werewolf, and the afab-gn! reader is his longtime best friend. Soap hasn’t had anyone to help him with his rut for YEARS, but eventually, his fellow soldier and best friend gets tired of seeing him so overwhelmed, and agrees to help him. Bonus points if they have secret feelings for each other.
Eventually, Soap’s got the reader pinned down, and he’s just taking all of his sexual frustration out on them. He means well- but he fails to notice the fact that they’re a whiny mess, struggling to take his knot and handle his roughness. After thoroughly ruining his darling reader, he feels bad, and makes up for it by cuddling them and giving them legendary aftercare <3
I 100% understand if you don’t want to do this btw, no pressure!
-Hybrid
*cracks knuckles* One Scottish werewolf, coming up! Enjoy!~
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You'd known Johnny since primary school, the two of you becoming rather fast friends. A shared interest over sports truly built the foundation of your solid bond. Finding out he was a werewolf didn't even put a damper on things; if anything, it made him all that more cool to you.
It was really you that followed him around like a puppy, even going as far as to follow him into the military. Everyone in your squad loved to poke fun at how much of a dog you acted compared to the literal werewolf, how much it had to be puppy love. You vehemently fought off the accusations; Johnny was your best friend! There was no way in hell you were interested in him romantically!
And that’s what you told yourself all up until this big bad wolf of a best friend of yours took a bullet for you. You gasped as he howled in pain, eyes immediately turning on the enemy as he lunged for them. You’d never been more worried and turned-on in your life.
So when Soap’s next rut came, your heart strings were tugging so hard you thought they might snap. He’d told you in detail what it felt like to not have a proper mate to go through those cycles was like, so when you found him in his bunk, halfway to full wolf form, sweating like he’d just run miles around the track, you couldn’t just stand idly by. You were going to help your friend whether he liked it or not.
“Johnny,” you called, voice quiet and calm. Bright baby blues that had turned a vibrant golden locked onto you. You knelt beside the bed onto the cold unforgiving cement and stroked his cheek softly.
Immediately the man leaned into your touch. “Your touch is like a cool drink Y/N,” he whined. Somewhere in his mind, you were sure he thought he sounded smooth, and you didn’t have the heart to tell him otherwise. Your thumb stroked over his stubbly cheeks with a fondness only reserved for him. “How to Know You’re Getting in too Deep With Your Bestie”, a memoir by Y/N.
“You’re suffering Soap,” you told him, gently helping him onto his back so you could straddle his hips. Eyes like the full moon never left you, tracking your every movement. You were only in a regulation shirt and your boyshorts. The feel of his hard length, knot and all didn’t go unnoticed as your pussy twitched eagerly. “Quit pushing me away and let me help.”
The next round of movements were a blur to you, but you knew for certain at least how you ended up face down into the mattress. You heard the shredding of fabric as your underwear was torn with the flick of a claw. You jump a bit when you feel the cold nuzzle of his nose against your slick cunt and you can tell how he revels at your moan when he warm tongue laps some of it up.
A low growl resounds in your ear next sending a shiver down your spine. “You’ve no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this leannan,” comes Soap’s rough voice right against the shell of your ear, earning him a whimper of excitement. You can feel where his cock lines up with your entrance and the slight burn as you’re stretched in one quick thrust. It rips a scream of pleasure from your throat that seems to only egg him on more.
Between the hot panting of the wolf in your ear and the exponentially thick cock ramming into you over and over, it was no surprise that you came first. Your wet hot walls contracted around your best friend’s member over and over, as if milking it. The werewolf above you growled in pleasure, head thrown back as he could finally mate. 
So many years he had been on the brink of asking you to let him mate you, to breed you, even if just once. The sensation of actually being able to do it was better than he could have ever dreamed. And you yourself certainly weren’t complaining. 
It had the both of you in a fog of pleasure, your minds obscured by the haze of sex. Even in the moments you were begging, pleading for him to stop, he never slowed, orgasm after orgasm wracking your body. You were in a state of lustful bliss, simply letting your best friend take out the years of pent up sexual tension on you.
The knot catching on your inner walls caught your attention. Somewhere in the back of your mind you knew you shouldn’t be able to make that fit. You tried to babble out pleas for Soap to slow, to stop, to give you a minute to breathe. But the pleasure was bubbling in the pit of your stomach again and you knew there was nothing you could do to stop it. You felt teeth nipping at your shoulder as the wolf finally slammed his knot inside you, howling loudly as he came. 
Your own orgasm, how many this was by now you couldn’t recall, was ripped from you in the form of a scratchy voiced cry. You tried in vain to link your hand with that of your best friend, only to have him gingerly help you. That wet tongue was back again, this time lapping softly at your shoulder where he’s presumable nipped a bit too hard.
You were in and out of consciousness, as to be expected of someone who was just thoroughly fucked by a werewolf for the first time. So when you truly came to again, bundled up in the lap of your best friend, it was a little surprising. Your stirring caught Soap’s attention and bright golden eyes looked down to you fondly. 
“Finally awake are you?” He asks with a soft chuckle. You reach up and ruffle the little mohawk that somehow manages to show up on his fur at the top of his head. You could faintly feel the hardness of his member poking against your thigh. 
“Need a hand with that soldier?” you ask, voice raspy as if you’d been shouting at recruits all day. You’re handed a glass of water before you’re given an answer which you happily sip on. The cool liquid soothes the ache in your throat.
“Later leannan,” Soap tells you. “I’m sated for now.”
“You keep calling me that Johnny,” you say with a soft laugh, voice a little clearer now. You offer him a quiet thanks when he helps you sit up and sets a bowl of stew in your lap. You hadn’t realized before you’d seen the food, just how hungry you are, how much energy you’d exerted. “What does it mean?” Your best friend huffs his own little laugh as he watches you start to eat.
“Sweetheart.”

TL;DR: multiple people can arrive at the same fanfic idea/premise in different ways, but also, getting inspired by a different fanfic is not stealing, please don't gatekeep!
I joined a new fandom (it's Resident Evil (RE), which I'm mostly mentioning for that one 'nosy' anon because hell yeah I am super nosy as well, so here you go, dropping some names!), and I quickly stumbled upon one fandom-specific plot trope that I thought was both pretty neat but also super obvious (Infected!Character fic, which, in a world with zombies and viruses that cause zombies is a very logical trope).
Anyway, there was not quite as much body horror as I thought there would be, although I'm still looking, but that's not why I'm writing to you, that's just the (un)necessary background.
There was this one fic that I opened, which in its Author's Note clearly stated that the author set this fanfiction in another author's AU, because they loved the world created by this first author. The first fanfiction author basically came up with their own Infected!Character design and backstory (including fanart), and the second fanfiction author liked it so much they were now writing this fic based on/in that AU. Obviously not quoting the AN directly, but this second author was very complimentary and explicitly mentioned where they got the idea from, gushing about the first author.
In the AN for chapter two, the second author stated that they weren't aware that that first fanfiction author didn't allow others to write about the Infected!Character AU they'd made, that that first author in fact only allowed a very limited number of people they publicly approved of to write about their AU, and nobody else was allowed to touch the Infected!Character AU. This second author was now apologising in the AN for not knowing this, plus mentioning that they changed chapter one to switch up the backstory & design to not be too close to that of the first fanficton author's AU.
That made me sad, honestly. I've seen this attitude a couple of times, where fanfiction authors are super protective of their ideas that they won't allow any other fanfiction author to write about them, and it's always struck me as a little bit hypocritical, given the whole deal of fanfiction. Especially when the original/first fanfiction author is credited and the inspired work is clearly done because the second author loved the first fanfiction so much. If it's a highly developed/specific and original AU (so not just any common trope), and you don't even mention the fanfic you were inspired by, then I find that rude, but just flat out not allowing people to even touch 'your' thing? C'mon!
This partially ties into my other gripe about a specific type of comments I occasionally get, which are along the lines of 'huh interesting idea where did you get it? bc/btw there is this other fic with the same idea (posted before you)'; idk if I got the tone right, but they never seem to be actually genuinely asking how I got the idea (and I always delight in telling them, not sarcastically, I genuinely love talking about this stuff, bc I get inspired by the most random things and I love love writing 'original'/new things!! I love tropes as much as anybody, I read a shitton of them, but i when I write I love coming up with new shit/plot! it's so fun!!). They just vanish after my explanation, even when I try to invite further conversation. It always feels to me like they're 'checking' that I didn't steal the idea, and it feels a bit lousy.
I mean in (larger) fandoms, it is not surprising at all that two or three or even more people arrive at the same idea, maybe even inspired by the same thing, same reading of canon, or not, varied experiences--and just because the works are similar doesn't mean that they were inspired by one another, but if they are, that's not a sin! I just want people to not take everything in bad faith, and also, to not 'disallow' others from getting inspired, especially when they do it in a very polite manner!
It's because of comments like these that I sometimes, very privately, worry that before I'll manage to post the long fic I spent months writing--because I'm one of those who wants the thing finished before I start posting--somebody else will have a similar idea, post their thing first, and then I'll look like I'm lying about not reading/stealing their idea, or just jumping on the bandwagon, which again, it's not a bad thing, actually.
And it shouldn't be like that! I shouldn't worry, and people should also be more willing to accept that authors can arrive at the same idea at (roughly) the same time & accept that explanation without side-eyeing the author, and that if an author is inspired by a different fanfic, that's not a sin either (in fact, for me it would be an honour).
None of this is new either, but that RE stuff reminded me of it again.
Oh man, this is way longer than I thought it would be. Apologies. I'm going to add a TLDR at the start.
Anyway, I'm going to finish writing an Infected!Catboy!Leon fic now and be very unsurprised if I find out that somebody else has had the same idea long before me (aside from one or two reader fic inserts with that topic that I stumbled upon on tumblr, bc that's just not my thing at all (reader insert, I mean)).
--
In college, friends of mine had a falling out over one of them "stealing" the other's fic idea.
Space pirates.
Not specific space pirates. Not a way of integrating the concept that was fandom-specific. No, just the general idea of space pirates in the same fandom.
Never have I facepalmed so hard.

Oh, everything has been fabulous for me! Other than an insult from a certain little devil, of course~ Though, insults are never something that can keep me down- after all, no one can stop chaos with a few little words! But, that’s besides the point. You said that you were able to get into the library without guards noticing, no? That’s beautiful to hear darling! Sneaking around without a sound is always a great skill in this lifetime. Especially for causing discord and chaos~

Why hello darling! It is nice to see you again. Has your memory improved? How’s life treating you?

can you please do one of wanda and nat x child reader and getting them to do homework and eat hahahahah i love ur fics btw it makes me feel so warm
Tumblr media
✒ Pairings: Wanda Maximoff, Natasha Romanoff x Child!Reader (platonic)
✒ Summary: Wanda and Nat try to get you to do your homework and eat your vegetables.
✒ Tags and Warnings: Homework, stubbornness, fluff, anxiety, making friends
✒ Author's Note: I really appreciate the request! I thought this was such a good idea, hopefully, I did it justice! Sorry, it took so long. To the other requests in my inbox, I am sorry I am so slow but I will be getting to them, they're all so good :)
✒ Word Count: 4744+
✒ Read Time: 24 minutes
Masterlist : The Package AU : Socials
Tumblr media
“It sounds like a good opportunity, I don’t think it’s ever really too early to start” Nat urged. 
“I guess, but she’s just so young,” Wanda claimed as she moved to join her friend on the couch. 
“They’ll all be her age, it’s just for a week,” Nat insisted. 
Nat had found a program for young children to learn science and math for a week, it was kind of like a day camp. The parents would drop off the young children daily for 4 hours of hands-on learning. She thought this would be good for you since you have been following very closely in Peter’s footsteps when it comes to his interest in math and science. It would also introduce you to a school setting so that it isn’t so far out of your comfort zone next year when you go to attend preschool. 
To be truthful, you and Wanda were all Nat could think about lately. She wanted so badly to be there for you two, to help you achieve success and be given opportunities that she could’ve only dreamed of at your age. This sent her down a rabbit hole searching for events or activities you could take part in. Most of them were geared toward older children, but the science camp stated all ages so she jumped on it. 
Wanda was hesitant about the program, she didn’t want to push school onto you too early. You should be able to enjoy the time before it completely takes over your life for 14+ years. Nat had a point though, it’s only a week and you would probably really love it. She wasn’t sure how you would react to being left without her all day though, hopefully, now that you have been coming out of your shell the process would be easier but it was hard to say. 
Though, it’s inevitable that this will need to happen eventually. One week of practice would be helpful to smooth out the process once it's mandatory. Wanda really admired the way Nat was so enthusiastic about this program, like the way her voice became more animated and expressive. Wanda could hear the slight rise in her tone as she described the activities that you’d get to experience, and the way she leaned closer in proximity to show off the different amenities on the webpage had Wanda holding her breath and overthinking every little movement of her body. As she got lost in the sparkle in Natasha’s eyes, she couldn't help but scrutinize herself for making everything so awkward, ‘don’t move, don’t breathe. Okay, breathe but slowly. Does she notice? why is this making me feel this way? It’s not like we’ve never been close to each other before.’
“What do you think?” Nat jolted her from her spiraling thoughts, both mentally and slightly physically as Wanda startlingly looked at her. Of course, she hadn’t been paying attention to a thing Nat was saying, but she couldn’t know that. 
“Hmm, yea that sounds great,” she admitted, hoping she hadn’t just agreed to send you to a shield boot camp or something that only Natasha would find fun. 
 “Really?” Nat was beaming at the fact that Wanda liked her idea and genuinely hoped you would have a great time. 
“Ye- yea, I mean, it’s just a week and she’s going to have to get used to spending time without us.” Wanda went on to explain.
Natasha's heart skipped a beat. Us. She knew what Wanda meant by it and even though she recognized it wasn’t anything that she should read into, Nat couldn't help but analyze it. Such a simple phrase, but it had the prospect to hold so much meaning. Wanda had included her in her vision of your future, as a unit, as us. In reality, Wanda knew Natasha would always be there for you, but Natasha couldn’t help but feel a wave of warmth and happiness wash over her at the thought of it meaning something more, causing her cheeks to flush and a smile to form on her face. 
Tumblr media
When Wanda and Nat told you about the camp, you were initially really excited, until you found out that you’d have to go alone. Sure, they would drop you off, but then they would leave, and then, who would protect you if something went wrong? Who would be there to hold you when you got nervous around the crowd of unfamiliar faces?
“Mama?” you broke the silence as you sat snuggled into her side on the couch of the common room, enveloped in mostly darkness except for the soft glow from the television. 
“Yes, detka?” she glanced down at you as your head tilted up to meet your eyes with hers. 
“Do I have to go to da sciewence schoowl?” you asked softly, just barely above a whisper, not wanting to make trouble but you couldn’t get the fact that you would have to go alone out of your mind. 
Wanda immediately shifted her full attention to you in an attempt to create a safe and open space for you to express your worries, “I thought you were excited?”
“Well, I am- I was, but, I don't want to go wiffout you or Natty.” you admitted as you translated your fears from thoughts into words. 
"I see, I understand that you're feeling nervous about going without us, and that's completely okay, my love. It's natural to feel a little anxious when we step out of our comfort zone," she said as she gently rubbed your arm in soothing motions. She wanted to help you work through these feelings instead of blocking off new opportunities due to fear. In the end, she wouldn’t force you to go, but she would do everything she could to get you open to the experience. 
“You know, even adults get feelings like these when they're about to try something new or go to unfamiliar places. I remember when I first joined the Avengers, I felt a mix of excitement and nerves. But you know what?” 
“What?” 
“It turned out to be an incredible journey filled with wonderful people and unforgettable adventures. I got to meet my two favorite people in the whole world"
“Me?” your expression shifted from nervous to curious, as you wondered where Wanda was going with this. 
“Yes you, and Nat,” she says unable to mask the smile that forms near automatically from the mention of her best friend.
“What if, der is no one der for me?” you wonder 
"You will have so many other kids there that are your age that you can make friends with, malysh"
“What if dey don’t wike me?” You were genuinely worried about meeting other kids your age. You’ve only ever been around adults and you weren’t quite sure what to expect. Would they all already know each other? Would there be a certain way you were expected to act around them? 
"What’s not to like? You have the kindest heart and the most beautiful spirit of anyone I know.” she was speaking from the heart as she genuinely believed what she told you. Wanda watched you go from this scared little girl who was being held captive in a Hydra base to a kid who gets excited to talk about the solar system and wildlife habitats with Peter. She watched you open up and accept these people, even the men on the team,  into your life despite your wariness. She’s sure you are capable of anything you really put your mind to, “Making friends has one simple rule and if you follow it, it's practically foolproof, do you know what that is?”
You just shook your head in response, waiting for her to continue.  
“Just be yourself. If you do that you'll attract real friends who appreciate you for who you are," she said as she tapped your chest, pointing to your heart. 
“Be myself?” you wondered what it meant as you repeated the words on your own tongue. You don’t recall ever acting like someone else. “Who else would I be?”
Wanda couldn't help but chuckle at your innocence and how cute you were, “Some people try to change for others. They change their personalities, their opinions, and sometimes even their looks just to fit in with other people.”
“Oh. so, wike, pwetending?”
"Exactly! You are capable of so much more than you realize, my little one. Have faith in yourself."
You thought over her words as the show continued to play in front of you on the TV. You were so close to being on board with it, but you couldn’t get over the possibility of being stuck there without a way out. The way Wanda spoke so highly of you, gave you the confidence you needed to believe you could make friends, but what if everything really did go horribly wrong, would you be stuck there all day? 
“Mama?” you continued the conversation after a few minutes of watching tv had passed. 
“Hmm?”
“I want to go to da sciewence schoowl, but what if I need you when I der?”
Wanda thought about this for a moment, You're far too young to have a cell phone, but a communication line wouldn’t be such a bad thing for you. It could help calm your anxiety and in her line of work, anything could happen so it would make things safer. 
“Well, if there is something really important, you can tell your teacher and she can get ahold of me,” Wanda explained. You didn’t seem too satisfied with that answer though as you gave a somber acknowledgment. What if you weren't able to get the teacher's attention, or the teacher just plain refused, the plan just didn't seem very solid. 
Wanda could see that you weren’t content with her solution, “Or I can show you a trick,” she offered. 
Your face perked up, immediately intrigued, your little hands clutching a stuffed toy tightly, gazed up at Wanda with wide-eyed wonder, “a trick?” you asked
“Close your eyes, my little one,” Wanda explained and you did as she instructed, “now, take a deep breath. Imagine a warm light surrounding us, enveloping us like a soft, protective blanket. or a big fluffy cloud”
As you sat with your eyes closed, a serene smile graced Wanda's face. She concentrated, allowing her own powers to flow through her, and extended her thoughts toward you. With a gentle touch of her mind, she created a bridge between your thoughts, a telepathic connection unique to you.
"Now, detka," Wanda whispered, "I want you to think of something you want to tell me, but without saying it out loud. Just focus on the feeling and the words in your mind."
Your brows furrowed and your face scrunched in concentration, your little face reflecting the effort of trying to convey your thoughts through this newfound connection. Wanda could feel your tiny mind reaching out tentatively, like a fragile thread stretching between the two of you.
With each passing moment, the connection grew stronger, and soon your eyes fluttered open, revealing a mixture of surprise and delight. "Mama, can you hear me?" your innocent voice echoed softly between your minds, blending with the quiet hum of the room.
Wanda's heart swelled with joy as she nodded, her eyes shimmering with pride. "Yes, dorogoy, I can hear you!" she exclaimed, "Our thoughts are connected now, and no matter where we are, we can talk to each other like this. Whenever you need me, I will be there for you,” she explained.
In that magical moment, your minds intertwined, You two shared a connection that transcended words. With telepathy, you could communicate your deepest thoughts, dreams, and feelings, strengthening the unbreakable bond between mother and child. Perhaps most importantly to you though, you were able to reach Wanda without the confines of distance. 
As you sat there, immersed in your newfound ability, Wanda couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of it all. She knew that this telepathic connection would serve as a source of comfort and reassurance for you, a constant reminder that you were always connected, even when physically apart.
With that, you were content with the decision to attend the science camp. Not only that, but you were excited again. Instead of focusing on the parts that worried you, you were able to shift your focus onto all the exciting things you were bound to learn and discover. Your mind ran wild with outrageous theories, like discovering fossils or trying to figure out the speed of a flamingo by simply racing beside it. 
Tumblr media
The first day of camp approached rather quickly. In the days leading up, you would often use your new ability to have silent conversations with Wanda. Sometimes you would do it to practice and make sure that you still could when you needed to, and other times you did it to express feelings and emotions that you had trouble translating into words. 
Wanda and Nat were both there to drop you off on your first day, you were less nervous than they expected you to be which they were grateful for. Now that you were able to contact Wanda you felt safe in exploring new experiences alone, and maybe that's because you never felt alone, because she would always be there for you if you needed. 
The camp was divided into different age groups. The majority of the kids were 4th and 5th graders, but there was a small group of children your age. Wanda and Nat were grateful that you would have enough children to socialize with but not so many that it would seem overwhelming. Hopefully, with the smaller group, it would be easier to make friends. 
In fact, you didn't even get to the classroom before you made your first friend, “Hi, I’m Matthew, what's your name?” you turned to the voice that spoke behind you, “Hi! I’m Y/N” you greeted. “Y/N! Dat’s a cool name! You wike space too? I wove space!” he mentioned as he noticed your shirt that showed a playful astronaut floating in space, holding a slice of pizza in one hand and giving a thumbs-up with the other reading Pizza Planet Explorer, “Wanna be fwreinds?” he asked. 
You were caught off guard by how quickly he spoke and became distracted, but of course, you wanted to make friends and you already had something in common, “Yes, we can be fwreinds, I love space too. My favowite planet is Saturn” you enthusiastically replied. 
“I wike Jupiter da most cuz it’s da biggest,” Matthew responded. 
The two of you sat next to each other throughout the demonstrations and even shared a table at lunch. Wanda had packed you a container of yogurt, sliced strawberries and baby carrots, and some Mini turkey and cheese roll-ups which were basically just a turkey sandwich rolled into bite-sized pieces for easy eating. At the bottom of your lunch box, there was a note that read, 
My Dearest Y/N,
I hope you're having a wonderful day at school! I am so incredibly proud of you. Remember, my little superhero, you have the power to do anything you set your mind to. Each day, you're growing stronger, smarter, and more amazing. I can't wait to hear all about your day when you come home. Keep shining bright, my sunshine.
With all my love,
Mama
You couldn’t help but smile as you attempted to read the note, you still weren’t really able to read but you were able to pick out keywords like love, smarter, amazing, and superhero, so you got the vibe and felt comforted by it, which is all Wanda had hoped for.
 “What’s dat?” Matthew asked as he saw you set the note down next to your baby carrots. “Oh, my mama wrote me a note” you explained. 
“Oh wow, she must really love you,” he stated as he wondered why he never received any notes with his meal. 
“Yea, she does,” you said with a gleaming smile. 
You managed to survive the entire day without contacting Wanda at all. She hoped it was a good sign as she and Nat headed to pick you up. They were made sure to be there 5 minutes before pick-up so that you wouldn’t have to wait, knowing you’d be excited to see them and tell them all about how it went. 
As soon as the door opened for dismissal, you immediately found Wanda’s green eyes and ran full speed with your arms stretched out reaching for a hug. She enveloped tightly you as she lifted you off the ground for a long embrace. The two were happy to see that your face was filled with nothing but joy. 
Wanda continued to carry you as the three of you headed toward the car. Wanda ducked into the driver's seat after getting you settled into your car-seat and Nat took the seat next to you in the back so that she could hear all about your day. 
“Sooo, how was it? Tell us all about it!” Nat insisted. 
“Was so fun! We learned bout uhm- OH! JUPITER HAS A RAINSTORM! And Mafwew said dat if we went to space, der wouldn’t be any noise.” 
“Matthew?” Wanda asked as she caught glimpses of you speaking through her rear view mirror. 
“Yea mama! My new fwiend! He wikes space tew!” you excitedly announced. You went on to tell them all about the things that you learned and how much fun you had with Matthew. Tomorrow couldn't come quick enough. 
“Did they give you any homework?” Nat asked once you had finished. 
“Oh yea, is in my bag” you answered as you showed Nat where it was in your bag. She read over the instructions and mentioned that you could do it right when you got home. The assignment wasn’t anything too difficult, but it sure was time-consuming. 
The project was about energy and showing how much we consume every day. The worksheet was laid out so that all you had to fill in were blocks of color. You were given a piece to plug into your outlets and once you had the item mentioned plugged in, it would show an amount. Then you had to fill in the bubble that corresponded with the range on your outlet. 
Nat and Wanda both helped you through this but you soon became bored and no longer wanted to do it. It was so repetitive and your toys were sitting right there just waiting to be played with. Eventually you got through it without making too much of a fuss and you could finally get on with what you wanted to do, except that didn't last long because before you knew it, Wanda was telling you it was bathtime. 
“But mama, I just stawrted pwlayin” you said somberly. 
Wanda wanted to give you more time to play but it was already getting late and you had to be up early tomorrow, “I know, I’m sorry baby, but it’s late and you need a bath before camp tomorrow.” Without a fight, you reluctantly followed hoping that tomorrow would be better. 
Tumblr media
When you arrived home from camp the next day, the same dreaded question was asked, “Do you have any homework today?” You remembered how long and grueling your homework was last night, and instead of showing them the papers that your teacher gave you, today, you simply shook your head. Of course, Nat, the trained super spy, noticed the hesitation in your response as the gears turned in your brain and saw right through you. Deciding that she would look in your bag herself once you all arrive at the compound.
You immediately ran to the common room to play with your toys. Natasha, in the kitchen with Wanda, investigated your bag as Wanda cleaned your lunch box. “No homework huh?” Nat muttered as she held up your papers for Wanda to see. They shared a knowing look as Nat mentioned she would talk to you while Wanda finished cleaning out your lunch. 
Natasha entered the common room, a concerned expression on her face, holding your backpack in her hand. She had a feeling something was off when you claimed there was no homework. She sat down next to you, as you played with your toys.
"Hey, sweetheart," Natasha said gently, placing the bag on the coffee table. "I happened to find something interesting in your backpack. Do you want to explain why you said you didn't have any homework?"
Your eyes widened, realizing you had been caught in your little white lie. You fidgeted with your toys, avoiding Natasha's gaze. "I... I didn't want to do it. It- it takes SOO long, and den I don’t get to play." you admitted. 
Natasha reached out and gently turned your face towards her, meeting your eyes. "Sweetheart, I understand that homework can sometimes feel dull, but it's important to be honest with us. We're here to help and support you, but we need to know what's going on."
Wanda entered the room once your bag was all cleaned. Sensing the tension, she knelt down beside Natasha and spoke in a reassuring tone. "Y/N, we want you to succeed in everything you do. And that includes being honest, even when it's hard. We're a family, and families trust and support each other."
A family. 
Natasha noticed the term and felt elated that she was included in the phrase. The three of you were a family. It didn’t matter whether Wanda and Nat were best friends, or something more than that; the three of you were family. You felt their endless love, even if they hadn’t figured out that part of that love lay within each other. 
Your lower lip quivered, realizing the weight of your actions. "I'm sorry, Natty. I didn't mean to lie."
Natasha's expression softened, and she pulled you into a comforting hug. "It's okay, sweetheart. We all make mistakes, and the important thing is to learn from them. Let's work on being honest with each other, alright?"
Wanda joined the hug, enveloping you both in her warm embrace. "We love you, Y/N, no matter what. And we're here to help you with your homework too. It doesn't have to be boring. We can find fun and creative ways to learn together."
You sniffled, feeling a mix of relief and remorse. They were right. Lying wasn't the solution, and you knew deep down that they were always there to support her. You nodded, determined to make things right.
“It can be fun?” you wondered how they planned to turn such a mundane task into something, fun.
“We can turn it into a special challenge!" Nat chimed in
You looked up, curious about the proposal. "A challenge?"
Wanda chimed back in, joining the conversation. "That's right, sweetheart! We'll create a reward system for each task you complete. Once you finish your homework, we can all have a movie night or make your favorite dessert together."
Your eyes lit up with excitement. "Really? We can have a movie night?"
Natasha nodded. "Absolutely! But first, we need to get those homework assignments done. Let's break it down into smaller tasks, so it feels less overwhelming. We'll be right here with you, cheering you on."
Wanda took your hand and sat beside you at the table. Nat and Wanda each took turns reading different questions out for you. 
With their gentle encouragement and the promise of a fun reward, you felt motivated. They both stayed by your side, offering guidance and praise as you worked through each task. They made the process enjoyable by adding some playful moments and even turning math problems into little games.
As you completed each question, you couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment. With every finished task, you grew more confident and proud of yourself. By the time you completed your last assignment, you practically beamed with joy. Almost as if homework was just as fun as playtime with your toys. 
Natasha and Wanda gathered around you, excitedly applauding your efforts. "Great job, Y/N! You did it!" Natasha exclaimed.
Wanda hugged you tightly. "We're so proud of you, sweetheart."
You grinned, feeling a sense of pride and happiness wash over you. With your two favorite people by your side, even homework could turn into an adventure filled with love and support; and as promised, you all enjoyed a delightful movie night, celebrating your achievements. You had shocked both Wanda and Nat with your choice of movie for the night, Planet 51, purely because it was something other than Frozen. 
For the rest of the week, Natasha and Wanda made it a point to create a positive and engaging homework routine for you. They turned studying into a fun activity, incorporating games, rewards, and plenty of encouragement. You learned that honesty and open communication were far more rewarding than any short-lived escape from homework.
Together, you tackled assignments, explored new concepts, and celebrated each milestone. You discovered that learning could be an exciting journey, especially when shared with your favorite people.
//
A few days later, the aroma of a freshly cooked meal wafted through the air of the kitchen, tempting your taste buds and filling the room with mouthwatering scents as you sat patiently at the table. Once Wanda had begun serving up plates of food, you noticed that the meal was something that you had no interest in eating. Your once adventurous appetite had transformed into a discerning palate, making mealtime a challenge for your loving guardians, Natasha and Wanda. 
"Come on, Y/N," Natasha coaxed, her voice gentle but firm. "You need to eat your vegetables. They'll make you strong like a superhero."
Your bottom lip jutted out, and you crossed her arms, proclaiming, "I don't like vegables, Natty!"
Wanda, with her patient demeanor, joined in, her voice filled with warmth. "But sweetheart, vegetables have magical powers! They can give you energy to run fast like-" Wanda abruptly cut her sentence short at the sudden realization that you had never met her brother. Pietro never had the chance to become an uncle before his life was tragically taken from her, him. She struggled to come up with a new comparison, as her mind was scrambling to revive her sentence. Nat immediately picked up on Wanda’s distress and quickly put a reassuring hand on Wanda’s shoulder as she took over, “They can make you strong like Mr. Bucky and Peter,” Nat concluded. 
The presence of Nat’s hand on her shoulder quelled Wanda’s mind from running in circles trying to backpedal as she focused on the way it felt to have Nat soothingly move her hand from her shoulder to her back in a messy circular motion, subconsciously leaning into her ever so slightly.
You glanced skeptically at the colorful array of vegetables on your plate. "Really?"
Natasha nodded, a playful sparkle in her eyes. "Absolutely! And if you eat your vegetables, you might even develop some superpowers of your own."
You carried the skepticism into your look back to Nat, “I alweady hab powers!” You said as you called her out. 
Nat’s eyes widened ever so slightly as she remembered that little detail but you didn’t catch the slight crack in her resolve. She was so used to treating you like a kid, like a normal kid, that she began to suppress the fact that you are in fact enhanced yourself, “New ones,” she responded as she covered up her slight oversight.
Wanda smiled as she watched the interaction, her voice filled with excitement. "Perhaps you'll develop the power to talk to animals or create beautiful flowers with just a wave of your hand."
Your imagination ignited, and you tentatively reached for a small piece of broccoli, eyeing it with newfound intrigue. Hesitantly taking a bite, to your surprise, a burst of flavor danced on your tongue.
"Yummy!," You exclaimed, a hint of both shock and amazement in your voice.
Natasha and Wanda exchanged triumphant glances, their plan unfolding successfully. They knew that sometimes a dash of imagination and a sprinkle of superhero magic were all it took to conquer a picky eater's heart.
Encouraged by your enthusiasm, Natasha and Wanda continued to weave tales of vegetable-powered adventures, turning each bite into a step closer to unlocking extraordinary powers. With every vegetable conquered, your confidence grew, and soon the plate was empty—a victorious battle won against the picky eater dilemma.
As you savored the last bite, you looked up at Natasha and Wanda, a bright smile lighting up your face. "I did it! I ate all my vegebles, just wike a real superhero!"
Natasha and Wanda shared a proud glance, their hearts brimming with joy. Together, they celebrated the triumph of a small victory, knowing that love, creativity, and a touch of superhero magic had transformed a picky eater into a courageous little hero.

KAEYA !!! — silly headcanons.
okay i haven't played the kaeya hangout yet BUT now that more people are on the same page as kaeya stans are, i want to talk about him again (this is just an excuse to project on kaeya and to add more headcanons about him).
note: i also haven't played cariberto. i am indeed behind on the story. not sure if it could have something to do with my hcs but just in case, i get a little anxious whenever i post anything. note 2: i already played cariberto, i've caught up with the story, but i get anxious about posting anything anyway.
silent lover that also wants to be loud about his love for you - he wants to do both !! and over time, he achieves that !!! hugs and kisses behind closed doors, whispering sweet nothings, stolen glances, tangled hands under the table, letters left on your bedside (modern au or not doesn't matter, he would leave notes or letters either way), that's his way of silently loving.
he's a passionate but soft lover. he wants to scream and announce the world his love for you, and he does, somehow, by telling his loved ones about his new special one. long chatty nights, whether at home or the city streets, whether at a park or sitting on the sidewalk, just... talking with you, listening to your voice, to your thoughts, and also, being heard and seen.
gift giving, words of affirmation, quality time, in that order. he's probably got it all five. i believe with all my heart that letters gather the holy trinity: gift giving, words of affirmation, and acts of service. i really think that, in a relationship with kaeya, he would love giving and receiving letters. he loves doing gifts, and he loves to tell you the sweetest of things. he wants to be close both physically and emotionally, even if the latter is hard to achieve for him- or both of you. it is something he yearns no matter how much he doesn't want to admit it.
maybe he can be a bit too cheesy. old fashioned lover boy, am i right? flowers for every ocassion: month-versary, birthdays, casual dates, “i saw this tiny one growing on the sidewalk and it reminded me of you” flowers, you name it. you should start drying the flowers he gives you if you haven't already. press them in a book, he will grin and slightly blush if he ever finds those.
the type to give you his jacket when it's too cold, the type to take your hands in his trying to warm them up, even though his hands are colder and now you're both laughing because of the freezed hands. hey, at least he made you laugh.
he may not be interested in long-term relationships (i am a strong believer that he is tho, btw) but he sure is interested in commitment. he may not be the first one to fall, but he sure falls harder- and if you are the one to fall harder... well, he will try to surpass that. he believes that relationships are 60-40 and each party works —and perhaps compete— to be that 60. i think he must have fooled around in his late teens and early twenties, but now that he's older he just wants a warm love, someone who can joke around with him and also hold his hand with care.
he prefers tea over coffee. it's a made up fact i choose to believe now. and maybe, just maybe, he likes to look “tough” by drinking coffee more often than tea. of course, nothing beats a good cup of wine after a nice meal.
he's an emotional drunk. he gets flashbacks of the things he would never talk about- things he would rather bury deeper in his memory, he stares with lost gaze while holding his drink at the tavern. he never cries not even once, but he seems so quiet and gloomy. he plays it as cool as he can, pretending to be the bubbly drunk, the playful one.
he longs for a family, and he knows he's found one he can hold close and dearly, but of course, he fears losing another family. he fears getting too close so he hides certain things of himself. he dreams of marriage, and maybe, if you want, adopting a child (definitely adoption because he also is afraid of sharing the blood of “the sinners”), altough he fears fatherhood as well. he fears fucking up and he fears not being able to be there for his child and most specially, he fears messing up things with you and the child you two wanted to raise together. so those are dreams, just dreams. good dreams, even.
now, getting more specific (i already said this in my first batch of kaeya headcanons lol), a demirose/demian icon. demisexual demiromantic. i think he went trough the ��bi/pan to aroace” pipeline (shotout to my aroace siblings that went trough something like this !! hope you can relate), though his experience got a bit different. sure, boy's demirose, and he holds little to no preference on who he gets attracted to after that bond forms, so he doesn't put a label on that. i like to think he knows what being demirose means but he doesn't use that label a lot neither. he likes to chill, you know?
he falls slowly and has a hard time opening up even though he so much desires to do so.
ah, being demirose doesn't stop him from finding people pretty, of course. he has a thing for long hair, but if he sees a girl with short hair? he finds that very attractive too. so, long hair and strong arms. getting a bit more suggestive maybe by saying he would adore his partner's body no matter what it looks like. whether you're tall or short, slim or chubby, no muscle or a lot of muscle, hip dips or big thighs, crooked nose or crooked teeth, moles, scars... oh, sunshine, are you listing flaws or his favorite things? he would love to snuggle against you once he's warmed up to you. that means, cuddling sessions from time to time. take a nap with him, be the big spoon and he will try to hide his flushed cheeks. he doesn't like to admit it often, but his heart melts when he is held. so... hold him thight, hold him close, whisper an “i love you” and he will give you the dumbest of smiles, all head over heels for you.
another thing i wrote before is that, if you're shorter than him, he would like to tease you for that in subtle ways. he would stretch his back when walking beside you. he tends to slouch when nobody sees him, but at the sight of you he straightens up immediately, almost like someone's poking him to do so.
he is contradictory. he wants to be close, to be vulnerable, to be open and honest, but he fears being rejected, he is uncomfortable with intimacy and vulnerability, he shuts himself when he feels like he got too close to you. how will be get what he wishes if he's like this? he would cry at night for that, but tears are not so easy to come out.
on a more optimistic note, he's a picky eater. he loves sweet things, and may be the type to add too much sugar and milk into his coffee to the point where it barely tastes like actual coffee. he enjoys noelle's pancakes.
he either is tone-deaf of has the most angelic voice, there's no in between. i find it more endearing if he's tone-deaf, so he prefers to hum under his breath soft lullabies. in a mordern setting, he would enjoy ballads and romantic lyrics. jazz as well, maybe. he is not too picky about music (contrary to his picky tastebuds).
and he may not be the best dancer, he lacks flow, but he sure can dance a slow waltz with you in his kitchen at three am because you're staying over and (you) felt like having a midnight snack. not necessarily a slow waltz, maybe he just wants to be close to you and pretend to dance, whatever he is doing, but he seems confident so... he at least earns that.
random addition after leaving this soak in my drafts for a month, lol: he has a very light (is the word tame?) scoliosis and the corset thingy he wears has that purpose. now, i know it's totally wrong because a backbrace covers the whole torso but i'm being delusional and self-indulgent. i have a mild, not that annoying scoliosis that have never been treated and i choose to project. with that being said: he rubs his shoulders in any way he can before bed because they get thight from work and his goddamn back :( and he can't reach his shoulderblades even though he can feel a knot there. what a shame... if he only had a lover willing to massage his rock ass hard back for him.
i want to spread the “kaeya owns ‘i can't take my eyes off you' by frank sinatra” agenda. i have to say i was enlightened by this edit. truly wonderful.
oops, i think i got too carried away for just “some silly headcanons”, i honestly don't know if it's a good format to post these, but i like to write like this. anyway, live laugh love kaeya.
english is not my first language, if i made some kind of mistake with my wording lmk !!

I was kinda suffering from writer’s block. I’m not anymore, so please enjoy!
Nishinoya x reader
Genre: Slight angst in the beginning, gets fluffier in the end.
Soulmate au: You are not able to see colours until you lock eyes with your soulmate.
A/N: My first soulmate au. I love soulmate aus, so I had fun writing this. I wanna do more in the future! Btw my sis kinda gave me some advice on what to write in the beginning… so yeah.
So pretty…
———————————————————————
The world was shades of grey, sometimes black and white.
As a child, you’ve always wanted to see colour.
Grey, a colour that you thought was quite intriguing. You always thought that it represented the word “neutral”. Was it towards a darker shade? Or perhaps a lighter shade? Wherever you looked, there would always be grey.
Black, a shade that you’ve always found to be… empty, like a dark abyss that was full of unknown mysteries, where no light could reach.
White, the shade that you always thought was pure. The white clouds, floating in the grey sky. You’ve always wanted to touch one. The white light, glaring into your soul. White was just a purity, the absence of darkness.
Black and white, the dynamic duo, Yin and Yang. Grey, the neutral colour, neither dark nor light. Those were the only shades that you could see. Until you meet your soulmate.
Your soulmate would be your best friend, and in most cases, the love of your life. The person that the universe has paired you up with. Like bread and butter, cookies and milk, ketchup and fri— you get the idea.
You’ve always wanted to meet your soulmate, not only to be able to see colour, but also to get to know your soulmate.
As time passes, you grow older. However, you still never met your soulmate. Life was as dull as it always was. As each month passes, you start to lose hope of finding your fated one.
(Btw this is when Y/N and Nishinoya are in Karasuno as freshman. Ok back to the story.)
Soon, you became a freshman of Karasuno High School. By then, you did not expect to meet your other half, but it would be nice if you did.
First day was great! You went your class, and got to know your seat partner, Tanaka. He was a great friend, honestly. He would often crack a few jokes, and you would laugh sometimes. Glad to know that you have made a friend.
Then, it was time to apply for clubs. You aways applied for a random club as you did not have a particular interest. You applied for the photography club in elementary school and the art club for middle school. What was next?
Just as you were seated at your desk, pen in hand, glancing down at the application form, contemplating which club to apply for, your seat partner spoke up.
“Why not be the manager first the boys’ volleyball team, Y/N?”
Boys’ volleyball team? That was kind of random. You never really thought about joining a sports club, much less a manager for one. It was safe to assume that Tanaka was applying for the boys’ volleyball team as a player.
You thought about it for a while, then responded.
“I don’t see why not. Sure, I’ll do it.”
Tanaka grinned.
“Thanks, you won’t regret it.”
“I better not.”
After you have finished writing down the club of your choice in the application form, you walked with Tanaka to the and you both submitted your forms.
~timeskip~
It has been around a week since you and Tanaka submitted your application forms. Since then, things have been peaceful. You did not have many friends, just a few close ones as that was all you needed. For academics, you were pretty decent, always getting above an 80.
But, enough of the boring stuff. You found yourself standing in front of the volleyball gym.
It would be your first day as the Karasuno boys’ volleyball team manager. You were excited, yet nervous. It was pretty normal to feel that way, though, considering the fact that this was completely new to you and not knowing the players in the team, yet.
Since the sport was new to you, you decided to do some late night research on volleyball. By now, you already know all the basics of the sport.
You stepped into the gym, and saw a lot of players, ready for practice. At the sidelines, there was a beautiful girl with raven hair and glasses. You would assume that she is manager of the volleyball team.
You could tell that Tanaka also found her beautiful as his cheeks were flushed while looking at her. You smirked.
“Talk to her after practice. Who knows, maybe you guys are soulmates!”
Tanaka only nodded before preparing for practice.
You walked towards the the girl and introduced yourself.
“Hello. I’m Y/N L/N. I’m here for the manager position.”
She turns around to look at you, responding shorty after with a kind smile.
“Hello L/N-san. I am Kiyoko Shimizu, the manager of the volleyball team. Pleasure to meet you.”
You greeted her back, then went to meet the players.
You met the third years, and the second years, and lastly the first years.
Everyone was nice and friendly, everyone was about to start practice when the gym doors burst open, revealing a big with spiky hair that was probably only slightly taker than you.
“Sorry I’m late!”
His voice was slightly raspy same voice actor as Bakugo from MHA He was probably a freshman judging based on his height.
You decided to introduce yourself later after practice, since you didn’t want to delay the practice even more.
Practice commenced, and everyone was great at the sport. The ones that stood out to you were Azumane Asahi, a second year that was great at spiking, Koushi Sugawara, a second that was a great setter, and Sawamura Daichi who was an impressive all-rounder.
Tanaka was also great at spiking. The late comer: Nishinoya, was great at receiving, though he was the Libero, so it was expected.
Practice ended after a while, and it was safe to say that the boys were a little tired.
Everyone kept the equipment, and were soon leaving. You left later than most people to lock everything up. And when you walked out, you saw Tanaka.
Faced to face with Kiyoko. In absolute silence. You hid behind the wall, not wanting to be noticed You’ve seen that before. It was with two strangers, and moments later, they told each other that they were their soulmates.
You couldn’t help but smile, happy for the both of them.
As you were happy for them, you couldn’t help but notice another boy hiding behind the bushes. Nishinoya.
Soon, he noticed you too, and your eyes lock.
It was as if you accidentally spilled a bottle of paint on a blank sheet of paper. Colour started to flood in the pale world, and it was so pretty…
You couldn’t help but notice his beautiful eyes, and his gorgeous spiky hair, was it always that good looking, was he always that good looking?
He gives you a cheerful smile, and you couldn’t help but return it.
You were snapped out of your thoughts when you heard Tanaka and Kiyoko exchange words of “you’re my soulmate.”
Then, they walked together. When you both were sure that they were gone, you stepped out of your hiding spots, and looked at each other once again.
“So, you’re my soulmate. It’s nice meeting you!”
“It’s nice to meet you too.”
From that day onwards, you both hung out, then confessed your feelings. As you dated, you thanked the gods that they paired you up with a wonderful guy.
You were happy to finally be with your soulmate.

FUN FACTS WITH BLANK
Tumblr media Tumblr media
my CS-AU related stuff (CARMEN SAN DIEGO OC AU)
MORE ABOUT ME AND VILE ACADEMY (in my CS AU)
- i was 10 years old when i first started stealing, opening the gates to my long path to a life of crime 😋
Player: what.
- my first time driving a motorcycle was when i was 12
Carmen: Blank. WHAT
- Before Vile, i used to work with various groups for big heists and i rarely worked with the same person, i had a pretty big reputation for being one of the youngest thieves in the criminal underworld and my former Codename was "Chameleon" 🦎 😋 ✨
Zack: you were a famous thief?!
Shadow-san: Believe it or not, he's telling the truth. <- saw his interview with Maelstrom + was aware of Blank's reputation because he was recommended by another Seasoned Operative
Player: woah, he ain't lying! <- just searched about it on the dark web
- in some of my former Groups and Affiliations, i was taught how to use guns 😍
Ivy: that's concerning. you weren't even a teenager yet but they taught you how to shoot??
Blank: at first it was more difficult than i thought at first. but i'm a natural with a revolver
Carmen: why in the world would they even trust a kid with gun?
Blank: because i'm amazing, that's why
- my favorite color is Violet/Purple 💜
- because i've been through allot of different Groups, i got to meet allot of different people! i learned allot of skills that help me with thievery. such as: Gun Shooting, Knot tying, Basic self-defense, Disguising myself, making my own Gadgets and stuff like DIY smoke bombs 😋
Ivy: it's nice to have someone around who knows how to DIY stuff
Blank: well, Versatility never fails!
- My Vile Codename is different compared to my Former Codename because i kinda found "Chameleon" abit cringey for me. i couldn't think of any other code name. the Faculty noticed that i didn't have a codename yet and had a talk about it so they could help me out. They couldn't think of a good Codename that i liked until Countess Cleo said "well we can't leave his code name blank, can we?"
Shadow-san: you preferred "Blank" over "Chameleon" because you were no longer interested in your former Codename? Blank, it took an entire Faculty meeting to find you a code name and out of all of the better Code names to choose, you chose a word that was said by Countess Cleo in a sentence? that's what took you to finally pick a code name?
Blank: well, it beats having a basic codename like Shadow-san 🖕
- Fun fact about Vile, the reason why there are only a few well known operatives on the field like Tigress, Mimebomb, Paperstar, Etc. out of the 40 thieves that graduate Vile per year was because they were elected as Specialist Operatives. because they had Specific Talents. (they only say Operatives because saying "Specialist Operatives" is a mouthful) the rest of the graduates became cadets for Vile (the guys you usually see in helmets and uniform)
- I was a Cadet for Vile for a few months after i graduated even if i was originally supposed to be a Specialist Operative (because Vile couldn't trust a 14 year old for bigger Heists even if they're aware of my History in big heists) Shout out to Shadow-san who recommended me to become a Cadet instead of an Operative btw
Shadow-san: it was for your own good. we couldn't let a child running on the field.
Blank: hah, i guess that's why they officially made me a Specialist Operative a few months after, huh?
- The faculty had a Meeting about letting a 13 year old Study at Vile academy, having another advanced placement shortly after Black sheep. guess who was like "Bitch, Naur"? Coach Brunt and Shadow-san 😋
Carmen: honestly, it was concerning that two of the most Dangerous faculty members were at your throat the entire time we studied at Vile
Blank: I know, right? Biggest compliment i've ever received
Shadow-san:
- Just Like Carmen, i also had a Holdover year! thanks to Shadow-san..
Shadow-san: Black Sheep and Blank were the hardest to stall during the exam. <- this man was proud of himself for a reason
Carmen: well past is past. and eitherway, it was nice not being alone.
Blank: yeah, until you left a few months before the last semester. thanks for that.

You said the Mechalor/Crowned Marx AU wouldn't have much impact, but could you not extend the format to some other villains? Taranza hunting down Star Dream to try bring Sectonia to her senses, only to make things worse. Susie, trapped and contorted by the Dimension Mirror, now just trying to find her father after her accident.
This is the first ask Mechalor Anon sent me, btw!
I'm half putting this up for interested readers, because it was a fun read, but also for Anon themselves, as I included some fresh commentary on their ideas as well!!
...
>Not much impact
You know, I sometimes forget how popular my little AU ideas can get! (Hmm. Can I claim the title "CEO of Kirby AUs?" Is that one taken?)
ATM these asks ended up leading to the formation of the Permadeath Swap, which I'm working on the second half right now, but there's a lot good here too I don't want to leave on the table!
>Taranza + Star Dream
Ohoho... the fact that Taranza might seek out a DIFFERENT cursed Ancient Artifact to try to undo what the previous cursed Ancient Artifact he got did is so broken in a very delightful way! (And I hate to say it, but it feels very in character for Taranza ^^; )
And that Susie story...feels very much like what may have happened to Parallel Susie! Although, given how she no longer has the hair accessory her father gave her, I think it didn't end so well...
Tumblr media
>Permanent changes for Taranza...
Is it sad the first thing that came to mind is "Sectonia actually does real permanent damage to him?" Like...physical abuse? Maybe, since she's losing her mind due to Star Dream eating up her memories and the last traces of "Joronia", she sees Taranza and tries to erm, force HIM to evolve to become more "like her." Doing things like destroying four of his hands, breaking his mandible/horns and blinding him in all but two of his eyes. Like, at this point, she can't even recognize / remember what caused the changes in herself so she just thinks that by breaking him she's helping him to "evolve." Of course, he never seems to "get there" so she just keeps going...
Oooh, god, wouldn't that would be awful...? The other awful thing of course is that by this point, Taranza might just accept all the horrible things she's doing to him with a smile because he wants them to be the same too (inside, he knows this is wrong, but he can't speak up about it because it means accepting how BAD things have gotten.)
Tumblr media
Keep smiling, Taranza. Joronia used to say your smile was beautiful. If you stop smiling...what body part will she take next?
-
PS: I actually forgot while writing this that she wouldn’t be her BEE self because it would just be the star and not the mirror (so much for god reading comprehension…) but uh… just go with it. >.<
(Btw, I’m reminded just how dark this AU can get. I don’t know what it is about the BossSwap that brings out the worst in me….!)
Tumblr media
>Max's Eternal Search
Something I really like about the thing with Max is that when Star Dream began messing with him, became obsessed with money - to the point that it was the only thing he thought about. Everything he has is expensive. Everything in framed in terms of how much ludicrous amounts of money it costs in his own fictional currency. ("Company store" indeed.) Everything is covered in gold + gemstones. Greed incarnate. But...
...This Max would probably become obsessed with looking through the mirror instead. If he stops looking for even a moment, he might miss catching a rare trace of Susanna. And so he uses his technology to expand the mirror's reach and makes sure EVERYTHING he owns is absolutely covered in mirrors/mirror-dimension feeds. (Take THAT, Versailles!) You can't see his eyes, as they're always covered in visors projecting the mirror. He doesn't even LOOK at you when he's talking down to you because he is still looking for Susanna...
Tumblr media
>Daroach + Hyness Swap
"None of these are great?"
WHAT?! I love this idea?! A Daroach + Hyness swap?! This is going on the to-draw list for sure! And by draw, I mean I now need to see the Mage Sisters dressed up as a pack of 1920s-esque lady thieves! The Jamba cult in a wacky heist story is too good.
No, really, this one is galaxy-brained! Multiverse-brained, even!
Plus, Squidward I mean Hyness and Dark Nebula just...they'd be so cute together?! (...Don't look at me that way... >.> ) Also, Dark Hyness would probably look like some kind of skrunkly cthuhlu (Nebula's arms sticking out from under his hood/veil) and that's just great?!
Fun fact: It is not a Squeak who steals Kirby's cake but WADDLE DEE (the traitor!!) And yet, I can totally see Flamberge in the role of starting things off this time. 
Zan: "Is everyone ready?" 
Berge: "Hold on, I gotta finish this."
"...Berge? Where did you get that?" 
"Huh? I grabbed it along the way. Figured you'd start complaining if I made us stop to eat in the middle of the mission! Smart, huh?" 
"Are you telling me...you found a slice of cake...just lying on the side of the road?" 
"No way! That'd be silly, Zan!" 
"I'm trying to ask, who did you take it FROM?" 
"Dunno. Didn't ask their name! Haha!"
"...BERGE...!"
-
My weak attempts at writing the sisters aside, you're right about Daroach and the Squeaks being quite easy to fit into this plot. After all, Daroach already expressed interest in the Jamba Heart! Given it's probably close to the galaxy's "largest jewel" in size, he might already have his heart set on stealing it! Perhaps he finds it but it has lost its glow. (The Heart Spears are still restraining Void Termina, after all.)
He uses what little magic he has to try and restore the gem's sheen, but just as it does, the Jamba Heart splinters and cracks. So he sends Spinni, Storo, and Doc out to gather the missing pieces, breaking up the cohesion of the close-as-family group as he stays behind to make sure... it's, you know, that it's safe... All the while, the Heart takes up more and more of Daroach's thoughts...
Also seeing the Squeaks all dressed in black... Yeah, I like this swap...!
Tumblr media
>Various Elfilis Swaps
I think the funniest thing about swapping the two geminis and Zero/Zero 2 is that you would either have Gooey playing the role of your "Elfilin" figure... or Dark Matter Blade!!
And something about the perpetually friendless, socially awkward Blade attempting to assist or (...god...) give commentary on what's going on is just very fun to imagine.
Let's ignore the fact that Dark Matter would almost certainly play the role of brainwashed Dedede in that situation and just go with it!
Lastly, while I really, really, really like the Daroach + Hyness swap (it's probably my favorite just because I'm still having the time of my life imagining the super serious Hyness and the Sisters in the madcap "Wacky Races" plotline that is Squeak Squad) but I like this possibility too! Especially if you have it so it's an unexpected consequence of the botched summoning. (Although it WAS secretly effective! This is just what happens when you touch the mind of a dimensional rift opening psychic from across time!)

Small(?) update on the Du'met!Erin au.
ok, so it's been what? a month since TDiM community chose the Du'met and Erin role/character swap AU and the bad news is: No, I haven't started writing it yet(disappointing I know and I am so sorry I have never written anything before so I will be slow with it :') BUUUT I do have some information about it! the brain has been storming the past month!
Ok, so first of all I would like to clear up some things before people start to question it.
1(and probably the most important at least imo): With Erin and Hector being swapped I would like to clear up that Jamie and Hector are NOT LOVE INTERESTS!!!! They are BFFs instead and Jamie's room scene will be slightly different and not at all romantic(at least between Jamie and Hector). And now that I'm writing that I feel like that was probably obvious since I did put it in a JERIN fic poll but JUST IN CASE.
2: The whole Manny Sherman and Hector being in the FBI thing will be sliiiightly different. Without giving too much away, Hector was still in the FBI and worked on the Sherman case but was able to catch himself before Sherman brainwashed him basically and resigned shortly after. However~ This time he had a partner investigating the Sherman case with him and let's just say maybe taking the tapes home with you (illegally btw) and stuffing them in your attic for someone to possibly find later on wasn't a good idea...
3: Erin still has asthma. That doesn't change and it actually has plot relevance.
So yeah! that's the "clear ups" if you can call them that?
now, time for plot stuff
ok so basically, for plot reasons I am swapping Charlie and Jamie's placements in the story, and by that I mean, Jamie falls down the trap door instead of Charlie in the freezer and she goes through most of the stuff he goes through in the actual game and vice versa with Charlie and what Jamie goes through, and I am debating if I should do the same with Mark and Kate. There's no reason to do that really, but I think it would be fun!
I am also now realizing(not really now I have thought about it for like 2 weeks) that with position swaps also means death swaps👀👀👀👀
also just some fun facts about this au ig?:
Hector and Kate PTSD twins😍✌️
Erin and Hector do maintain their canon personality to an extent with some parts of their personality obviously swapped.
Yes, Erin having asthma does take a blow on the crew's egos.
---- Oh! and if I may give you a littlleeee sneak peek of what is to come, without any context:
OMFG ERIN HOW ARE YOU NOT DEAD HALF OF YOUR FACE IS LITERALLY MANGLED AND BARELY HANGING ON TO YOUR SKULL-
:)
Also side note: I have been debating if I should do little one-shots for all of my Jerin AUs to give people a basic kind of plot or story for all of them. Obviously, I'm going to make and finish the Du'met!Erin au first before going into any of my other AUs for them. Some of them (HoA AU and Ultimatum) won't be getting one-shots since they are one-shots in and of themselves, but my other AUs(Like the 1980s murder wives, Deadpool x Spiderman, and my many(by many I mean 4 XD) werewolf AUs. Oh! And by the way, I forgot to mention that the Vampire x Werewolf AU is also an 1800s AU I know I should have included that in the poll but I completely forgot :')) That have actual storylines and plots to them that would be more than a simple one-shot. Like for the murder wives, I have an idea for a one-shot that is kind of like a prequel to the actual fic.
Please let me know if you'd like for me to make little one-shots for them first! Also sorry if this is a hard read grammar is not a very good skill of mine and I'm from the South so my English is kind of broken to begin with XD

Ok I've slept and I want to know, how you think the boys would react to all this. As I said I think they would follow the Oroku sibling. If they did, how would they react to seeing the two enter the shredder's lair, or see Casey hug the shedder and sob into his arms. Would splinter accompany them, or would the boys go back and tell him of their findings. Would April be there to. no one has discussed how April would react to Casey being an Oroku before now that I think about it. So how do you think April would react to it all.
~🧿anon
btw not any relevant information I prefer it/its, but I go by any feminine pronouns.
Hope you had a good sleep.
And thanks for letting me know your pronouns and such.
...
Spends my time pushing April Casey besties and than forgets April in this AU
... I am ashamed...
Leo's first thought is... So that's why he didn't like me hanging round Karai.
Slow claps
But seriously, they are all suprised, confused... betrayed.
Casey lied to them.
Casey has been lying to them since they met.
Do they even know him?
Was it all a lie?
Was this all a rouse so that Casey could get closer to them, deliver their secrets to the Shredder?
... Who's apparently his father?!
Maybe they would've stormed in, or off and Casey would be listed as their enemy.
If Casey were any less to them.
But he isn't, they love him like a brother.
And they know that their friendship with him isn't fake.
Isn't any sort of rouse.
Because Casey was afraid, he was scared, shaking when he entered the lair.
In a way they have never seen before.
He came to them.
He has gone on mission after mission with them, destroying footbots and such.
Saving them.
Fighting alongside them.
That was real.
But the way Casey sobs in Shredders arms.
And Shredder... This man they've only ever seen as a monster.
Shredder is cradling Casey like a newborn.
There is nothing but love in his eyes that the group have all had directed towards them by Splinter.
April recalls how many times she's been to Casey's games and seen a tall hooded figure cheer for him.
That every game Casey runs over, jumps into arms that spin him around and laugh, and praise him.
That has Casey always fondly whining "Daaaaddd"
This is real.
There's hurt, confusion and none of them really know how to feel.
But Casey has never let them down, and something deep down tells them he isn't now.
There's also the fact he's upset.
Upset him to the point he exposed himself like a dog rolling on his back leaving him vulnerable.
It sends a chill down each of their spines.
Splinter is the first to speak "it seems, something has melted the Shredders cold heart."
Oroku Saki had been many many things, many not so good.
But the man had always loved with all he had.
It is why their feud had cut them both so deep.
They end up leaving, as much as thru all wanna storm in and get answers and comfort Casey.
They know he will come when he's ready.
And they will their be their for him.
No matter his parentage, Casey had proved he was their friend.
And it was time they showed they would be his.
Leo is on high alert for betrayal and watching out for his brothers. He hides his emotions for he needs to be strong if Casey turns out to be evil.
Raph is hurt and mad because why didn't he trust me to tell me... but he's also like Casey's Casey, that's all that matters. And he won't be argued with.
Donnie is upset but is trying to hold out on hope.
Mikey is with Raph, he knows Casey he knows him. Casey's family that's all that matters.
April gets it, maybe not entirely but she gets keeping a part of yourself a secret. She knows she wouldn't have reacted well if told.
She accepts Casey for all he is, she just wants him to come home.
She and Raph are in the same wavelength.
And are very interested in finding out who hurt him.
Splinter is much like Leo, he is fond of Casey but he will do whatever it takes to protect his family.

Hi! In honor of learning that Aiden loves kids (CALLED IT) I thought I'd tell you about Adél's little brother, Ákos (because I think Aiden would be the kind of babysitter who kids love, but he almost gets lost in the woods with them, and I just want to see him with Ákos).
So, Ákos is 10 years old when the story takes place.
He is really smart and he loves to read. He is always curious. His life's goal seems to be to know everything about everything. He always has to be learning something or else he gets bored and becomes really restless. But the things he learns do not have to be big or exciting. He can just study the pattern on a wall and he'll be good for a few hours.
He is pretty socially inept, due to being raised in a castle all his life. He is really nice, but he asks too many and sometimes unintentionally insensitive questions. This means he doesn't have a lot of friends.
A lot of people find him annoying, and he can be, but it's never intentional. He is a sweet kid.
Unfortunately he is also really naive. Because nothing that bad has ever happened to him, he doesn't know how dangerous a situation can actually get. Combine this with his curious nature and... well curiosity killed the cat, right?(he doesn't die)
He thinks that every person who lives has something cool about them because to him everyone's lives are different and exciting.
But the coolest people are his siblings (including Bendegúz, who is not raleted to them by blood but they knew echother since he was born!)
I want to once again stress that he is really nice and sweet, and when he loves someone he loves them deeply!(sorry, I've been in a lot of fandoms where the kids are called brats and are despised for getting into trouble and I have ptsd)
I feel like I'm forgetting something but I don't know what so for now this is him!
Also, he has a cat mask that Adél made but she gave it to him, and it was practically his safety blanket in the Black swamp, he rarely takes it off, and I think Aiden would adore it.
Also also I think Adél and Maya deserve to have a calming cup of tea together.
Hey there! So I got finally around to answer your ask (again, I’m sorry you had to wait)
Ákos sounds like a good kid! I feel like he’d get along great with Henry since the two seem to have some stuff in common!
I love characters that are curious. And I think it’s really sweet how he seems to be so interested in getting to know people and their stories, I feel like he’s a very empathic person.
If even the smallest things are worth to learn about for a person, that’s always great. Love that Ákos seems to appreciate the little things, too.
You made me curious about his relationship to his siblings! They seem to adore each other (and you know how much I love that). It’s good that he has them, especially since you said he doesn’t have many friends.
It makes lots of sense though, of course growing up within castle walls and being protected makes one less aware of danger and more naive. That’s always the risk if rulers raise their kids like that. But he’ll surely overcome that eventually.
The fact with the cat mask sounds really cute too! In general I think the boy sounds really adorable, he deserves all the love he can get!
I’m sure Aiden would enjoy him too. And you’re right about Aiden babysitting btw. Children love him but he’s also lowkey chaotic (maybe that’s why the kids like him?).
For his niece he is the one and only babysitter (she doesn’t want anyone else). Especially in modern AU they get lots of interaction and have a good relationship. So I think Aiden and Ákos would get along quite well too! He could join their fun babysitter adventures while Adél drinks tea with Maya
As a little bonus, cause I made you wait so much, here’s two snippets showing Aiden’s superb babysitter skills TM
1.
“Hey babe, I was wondering if maybe you’d like to go out?” Talon asked when Aiden answered the phone. “The new movie you wanted to watch is out now.”
“I’d love to, but I can’t today. It’s date night, Henry and Callan are out, so I’m taking care of Celene.” “Oh I see. Stuck babysitting, eh?”
Right on cue, the young girl came running, throwing her arms around Aiden’s legs, looking up to him with big amber eyes.
“Is that your boyfriend, uncle Ad? Can he come over too? Please!”
Aiden laughed. “That’s a good idea, princess. We'll ask him... Hey Tal, why don’t you come over instead and watch a movie with me and Celene?”
“We’re watching Wall-E,” Celene shouted excitedly.
“Yeah we’ll watch Wall-E.” Talon on the other side chuckled. “I don’t know-”
“Come on love,” Aiden interrupted him. “We’re even making dinosaur nuggets.” It was quiet for a while as the other considered the offer.
“Okay,” Talon then answered. “I'll be over in fifteen minutes.”
Aiden smiled triumphantly. “Alright, see you in fifteen minutes then.”
2.
“Aiden, don’t tell me you lost my daughter.”
“I did not lose her, Henry, she’s hiding.”
“But you don’t know where?”
“No, that’s kind of the point of hiding.”
“And the point of babysitting is to have an eye on the baby, you know that right?”
“Of courses I know. But in my defense, she’s very good at hide and seek.”
“...”
“So back to my question, where in your house would you hide if you were a tiny three year old?”
(Bonus bonus: idk if you read it yet but here’s the link to a modern au snippet of Talon and Aiden babysitting Celene and baby Tamlen)
Thank you for sharing more about your characters with me, it’s an honor! ^^

HI PARKER!!! trope meme ask:
time loops/time wonkiness, modern AU, noir AU (I know the answer but STILL), genderswap/genderfuckery, major character death, there was only one bed
LISAAAAAAAA these are all so GOOD????? THANK YOU!!!!!!!! This is JUST what I needed to focus on rn AHHHHHH. So good. So good. All answers are MASH btw of course. I got a one track brain rn:
Time loops/time wonkiness:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
Yes. Yes. Love. Yes. Figurative time loops or time dilation or whatever? Where it just FEELS like things are taking forever but they aren’t? Love it. Literal time fuckery? Love it even more. I particularly love to think about the idea of a time loop in MASH as it relates to the sort of meta-angle of syndication. The idea that these characters are all, in some way, trapped reliving the same days of the war over and over for as long as we are watching them…that’s the stuff. Invokes something interesting to me about viewership / media voyeurism that I haven’t really pulled apart but. Fun. Makes me think. Love to play with. Ripe for tragic effect in-fic, fascinating at a meta-level. Fun fun fun fun fun.
Modern AU:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
Hard no, I say, writing one. 
To be fair I only started playing with the idea to see if I thought it could be done. Generally my opinion of a modern MASH AU is that it divorces the characters from the circumstances that shape them so entirely that it might as well be playing with OCs. They are so deeply the products of their time and place that I really hate to see them taken out of their context. 
…That said, I’m finding that the modern AU I was chopping at started to work when I shoved them into a desperate modern situation. Instead of sticking them in the front lines of a land war, I shoved them into the front lines of modern American health care. Hawkeye and BJ as trauma/CT surgeons fighting a losing battle against the crushing bureaucracy of the American medical industry kind of…works? IMO? Not nearly as well as their original context, but it does allow Hawkeye to be desperate and angry and disgusted by the perversion of his profession for the profit of massive corporate interests, and it lets BJ be silently resigned to hell, and the both of them are trapped for a certain number of years in a way by medical debt and the fact that what the hell do you do if you quit being a surgeon, when so much of your life and identity revolves around your career? It works because it lets them field despair and lean on each other and shove against massive faceless machines of injustice that profit off exploitation of their skills. Tl,dr; I’m a hypocrite for disliking modern AUs, it’s true, I admit. I'll never say never, but it'd have to be done really intentionally to appeal to me, I think.
Noir AU:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
LOVE!!!!!!!! LOVE!!!!!!!! I think it’s soooo sexy. I love noir, I’m a huge Raymond Chandler fan, and kind of subscribe to his writing approach in that frequently vibes and images are more the point of noir than watertight plot. There is very little I enjoy more than the type of stylized, image-focused writing that noir invites. I’ve been hacking away at a noir Beejhawk AU (AS YOU KNOW!!!!!!!! AH!!!!! I am working on. So many things. Help) and a consistent source of fun has been writing these smoky, dim, tense, sexy, ambient scenes where everybody’s circling each other and nobody is on quite the same page. Lots of Hawkeye standing around being lean and sharp and clever and melancholy, and lots of BJ being, and I’ve code-named him the Jackal in this fic where he’s a rouge and disillusioned beat cop with a gun to his head, sort of gleefully sadistic in moments. We know he’s got an in-canon capacity for violence that concerns and upsets him, and it’s been fun to let him take the limiters off and go a little wild with it. And of course how does guilt come back into play, because you KNOW it’s going to be there for him. Waiting. Always. Especially when he initially meets Hawk as a bit of an antagonist figure. God I gotta get back to writing this.
Genderswap/gender fuckery:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
YES!!! No. Yes. [Parker is picky as usual alert] SOMETIMES I love it and sometimes it’s meh. I LOVE it when it seeks out to agitate borders of heteronormativity and make things queer. I think it’s soooo fun to get into characters’ psychology (obviously) and I love how many ways that gender swapping or gender fuckery can open itself up to questioning characters’ internal biases and assumptions. If it's just to make a gay ship straight w/no underlying interest in how that would change things, then nah.
That said I think BJ and Hawk are both sooooo fun to get genderfucky with. I think BJ is fun to use to see how he reacts to tearing down some of his intense 50s gender role feelings, and Hawkeye and his whole breeding kink (sorry) etc., so much fun. Drag is fun, gender fuckery is fun, crossing borders is fun, violating gender norms rules and is so cool and fun. I love queer people actually. Love to see it in fic. GET WEIRD W IT! I’ve decided this is actually a solid yes now that I’ve typed it out. GET WEIRD!!!!! I WANNA READ IT!!!!
Major character death: 
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
NOOOOO AUUUUUGHHHHH. I will personally probably never write it (if it’s not temporary a la vampire!Hawk fic), but I think it CAN be done well but ouuuughhhhh. Hurts. Makes me soooo sad. I’m sure I’ve seen it done well but ohhhhhhhhhh.
There was only one bed:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |
Answered elsewhere but. I’ll say again that I FUCKING LOVE IT. Love pics that really delve into physical affection and one bed is soooo great for just. Everything about that. Accidental cuddling. Sharing space. Waking up wrapped in each other…..ooohhhhhhh I love. I love. 
Thanks AGAIN for this ask it was soooooo fun to get to really sit down and think through these!!!!!!!!!!!

OH DO I EVER. im gonna separate into two sections, one for asl one for general, bc there are so many of both in my bookmarks alone sjgkbdfh. coming back now after finishing the list & damn i need to reread these (<- read & bookmarked them in like. the past week or 2 at most SGFDGB)
anyway enjoy whichever of these u feel like trying!! i mostly just grabbed my favorites, and our taste most certainly varies somewhere. HOWEVER i will say, if u ever come across a op (especially asl) fic i havent seen yet that u think id like feel free to send it my way sjkgbdh i am so deep in the pirate brainrot 😂
ASL-CENTRIC
overcoming an era: this has GOT to be the first one on any list. it starts with sabo and ace running into each other during the alabasta arc, and continues with the canon divergence from there. currently at 33/37 chapters and actively updating once a week
you are my sunshine: pre-canon oneshot, wherein luffy is an affectionate kid and ace copes with the idea of being loved. gave me all kinds of soft feelings, absolutely recommend
twin flames: complete fix-it where ace and sabo called themselves twins as children, leading to a hilarious (and ultimately life-saving) misunderstanding when an impel down guard overhears that but misses the part where they're not blood related
you'll be fine, i'll be fine: oneshot where luffy gets a back tattoo commemorating both his brothers during the timeskip. his crew have a lot of emotions about it (as does sabo)
put your faith in what you most believe in: oneshot, the straw hats call sabo when luffy gets sick, and the brothers have a conversation about freedom and priorities (weeping wailing sobbing btw. thumbsup)
together is much better: modern au oneshot, wherein ace and sabo readjust after two years apart while luffy wreaks havoc in the background (they are both unbearably fond of their menace)
you still have me: ageswap oneshot where luffy is the big brother. marinesford still happens, but this time the post-wano strawhat crew is ready to save their captain's little brother, and maybe also get it through his thick head that he deserves to be loved along the way
thoughts of you and me: oneshot, asl end up with a telepathic bond for a week, and ace is forced to face the fact that his brothers love him
thunder like cannonfire, lightning like being alive: oneshot, asl hanging out and being adorable kids during a summer thunderstorm
laugh about today: oneshot, just tiny asl hanging out and being fucking adorable
home is what you've missed: time travel oneshot, or: if ace had a nickel for every time one of his brothers woke him up by clinging to him and crying only to never explain or mention it again, he'd have two nickels. which isn't a lot, but what the fuck guys
dearest brother (who you are): 1/6 chapters (last updated 2021 but reads as a complete oneshot). sabo runs into ace, gets punched, gets his memories back, and they run wild through alabasta together- in that order
take a step in mine: oneshot, luffy collapses a little sooner at marinesford and ace prioritizes getting his brother to safety enough that he manages to also get himself safe along the way
there is thunder in our hearts complete, fix-it. ace and luffy both make it out of marinesford, and sabo finds them in the aftermath after recovering his memories
take me to sea (where i belong): first in a series. fifteen year-old sabo's first infiltration mission has him joining whitebeard's crew. he eventually finds a family there, which makes things interesting a few years down the line when a certain sibling also joins up
done in by the flame: reunion oneshot. ace is dead as far as the world (and therefore sabo) know, so sabo takes it rather poorly when he hears about someone using the flame fruit on their way to dressrosa
to know you again: oneshot. ace survives marinesford. sabo seeks him out in the aftermath, but there's not really any easy way to say "hey, sorry your captain slash dad is dead and also that you thought i was dead for ten years because i had amnesia, but i'm here to visit and check up on you now that i have my memories back"
predecessor dream: oneshot. when someone eats a devil fruit, they have a dream where they meet with the previous holder so that knowledge can be passed on. somehow, sabo doesn't really realize what that means for him and ace's fruit until it's happening
second star to the right (and straight on 'till morning): oneshot. luffy is turning twenty-one, older than ace ever got to be. he and usopp talk about it
it burns a hole through everyone: oneshot. luffy and sabo talk about ace, guilt, and love. this one in particular fucked me up so bad emotionally, i fucking love it
hey, get off my boat!: oneshot. an amnesiac sabo is returned to his parents instead of rescued by dragon. at seventeen, he escapes to steal a boat and leave for good- only to find a strangely familiar teen trying to steal the same boat
folding paper: oneshot. luffy is Something Else and lays claim to his favorite people, but his brothers don't mind. it's just nice to be cared about, regardless of what exactly their new little brother is
accidental (accidentally forgotten) younger brother acquisition: 13 chapters, currently on pause. while on a mission sabo runs into a nice kid who needs some help finding his older brother ace. seems easy enough.... except for the part where they're both now calling him their brother and getting weirdly emotional???
for freedom: oneshot. the announcement of fire fist ace's impending execution is enough to trigger sabo's memories, and he sets out with dragon to marinesford
deja vu: oneshot. the announcement of fire fist ace's impending execution is enough to trigger sabo's memories, and he sets out with koala to marinesford
OTHER
a different father: oneshot. buggy the clown finds out that his captain's son is about to be executed, and decides to help the only way he knows how- bullshitting his way into turning a bad situation into a very strange one
a tall tree, with roots like a newborn: oneshot. the aftermath of whole cake island, and healing sanji's wounds- both physical and mental
your love is sunlight: oneshot. luffy loves his crew with all his heart, and after a stranger makes a weird comment he decides to make sure his crew knows just how awesome they are and how much he appreciates them
you know what they say: oneshot + short sequel. the marines have a pr officer in charge of covering up their misdeeds. unfortunately for them, she was isekai'd in years ago and has been biding her time until marinesford to burn the whole organization to the ground- and if she saves & reunites a certain trio of brothers in the process, so much the better
the victory march: oneshot. sanji immediately post whole cake island, coping with the new understanding of deeply and fiercely his crew loves him
sukat sh'lomecha: oneshot. a very sweet usopp fic, wherein usopp tries to figure out what haki is, and sanji just wants to make sure his friends are okay and help them when they aren't
in which higuma doesn't get to get drunk, even though he really, really wants to: oneshot. in the scene where bandits harass the bar and shanks teaches luffy about not first resorting to violence, things go a little differently (read: off the fucking rails) when an older luffy is sent back in time to his younger self's body. spoilers are given, shanks pouts about being ignored by a six(?) year-old, and the bandits are having a rough day and would really like some fucking alcohol, please
sight, taste: oneshot. in the aftermath of the whole cake island arc, charlotte pudding and charlotte katakuri find unexpected solace in each other. it's technically not found family because they are blood related, but the charlotte family is so fucked up it might as well be
kiss me, son of god: first in a series of oneshots based on the live action. luffy, nami, zoro, and sanji are all vaguely qpr and kiss about it. the vibes are nebulous and soft and incredibly tender, possibly the very best kissing the homies fic i've ever read. they're all platonically in love with each other and tbh good for them
dressed up, dressed down: oneshot based on the live action. sanji and zoro get weirdly homoerotic about wound care, and more specifically about not overexerting yourself and reopening a still healing, nearly fatal wound from fighting fucking mihawk, zoro
HI PAT i see you’re also getting (back?) into one piece. me too!!!
me 🤝 you:
asl brothers <33333
ps: hope the new year will be kind to you!!
HI KG!!!! it's been too long how are you!!!!!
ksbfhdd incredibly funny that we're both getting back into one piece at the same time 😂 however the fact that we both latched onto the found family sibling dynamic is unsurprising
you 🤝 me: asl brothers <3333 is SO REAL i care them 😭😭 canon has been incredibly unkind theres a reason my recent ao3 bookmarks are almost entirely one piece fics ajdhdh
i hope the new year is kind to you as well!! goodness knows we could all use a little kindness these days <3

For the writing jam -- AU where NHS becomes the Wen spy? Perhaps by fake-defecting to the Wens during the camp? Also optional but a situation where the Nies roll in ready to end the war and find NHS lounging in his Wen robes like "Da-ge! Don't stab me! I killed WRH already btw" would be deeply satisfying to the gremlin-loving sector of my id.
When he takes ill while helping to clean the kitchens, the guards don't take him to an infirmary, or even a field tent.
They lock him in a cell.
Even as his fever climbs higher and disorientation turns to delirium, he still has enough awareness to figure out what's going on. They're trying to force him to drop the ruse.
Breathing hurts too much to laugh.
He doesn't know how long he's been drifting in and out of consciousness when he's quite literally kicked out of bed and dragged down the hall by his hair.
Who the fu-
Oh.
Wen Chao's pissed. Something good must have happened, to have him throwing this kind of tantrum. And throwing him at a bewildered healer.
"Finally found a use for the useless little shit. Keep him alive."
Gradually, he pieces together what's going on from hearing the healer gossiping with the guards; he's the only "student" left. Everyone else either escaped or is dead.
Part of him is relieved.
Part of him is hurt.
Sure, when he can't even stay conscious for more than a shi at a time, he would have only been dead (ha) weight, he's fully aware of that.
But nevermind the fact that he's now stuck bearing the brunt of Wen Chao's childish rages alone, he's now stuck bearing the entire inner family's ire alone. The thought of what Wen Xu -or, worse, Wen Ruohan- might do in retaliation for everyone else having fled under their noses is...
The dread leaves him shivering even as his overheated, overtaxed body sweats and rejects food. The only sleep he gets is when he blacks out.
Shouldn't... shouldn't the medicine be working by now? The healer uses a tube to force it past his gag reflex every two shichen, and yet he still feels so awful.
'Shouldn't your brother have come for you by now?' asks a voice in the back of his head.
'The others abandoned you because they can't stand you.'
'Your own brother doesn't think you're worth rescuing.'
'You're going to die here because he doesn't care.
Oh... oh, he knows what's going on now.
And the next time the voice begins to murmur in his brain, he gives it the answers he knows it wants to hear.
---
They make a point of making him be quiet and be seen. He is now Wen Ruohan's sole personal servant, always at his side and within his reach.
He is never given anything logistically important to do, but that works out better for him. Without needing to concentrate on any of his tasks, he can use his mind for other things.
Like memorizing everything they so carelessly place in front of him.
Names, faces, lists, maps.
He commits it all, using his constant fear as motivation to grind past the usual lack of interest that fogs his mind when forced to read things like this.
He makes note of all other new servants, like the little torture device inventor that his master likes so much.
Hm.
Something's... there's something about that one in particular, starting with the way gold eyes sharpen when they're introduced, as if in recognition.
They haven't met, he would remember that face...
Nevermind.
He has too much on his plate already, most importantly the necessity of finding a way to send out what he's collected without tipping his hand to his master.
An opportunity arises when reports of Wen outposts being razed to the ground by fierce corpses takes his master's attention for what looks to be the entire day.
He slips out of the main bedroom, notes and diagrams hidden in his robes, and makes his way towards one of the dead drops for which he'd destroyed the discovery report.
He's surprised to find someone already there and stuffing a small package into the gap.
He's even more surprised when they turn around and freeze.
Well, well, well.
Tilting his head slightly, Nie Huaisang looks Meng Yao over and smiles for the first time since he got sick all those months ago. "Hello, Yao-ge," he says, pulling his own notes out. "I think you and I should talk."
---
"They'll be here any moment. We should go."
"You can go if you like. I've been waiting almost three years for this."
"He's going to kill you. He's going to kill both of us."
"He won't," Nie Huaisang replies as he calmly flicks his bloody hair back off his shoulders and primly sits down on the corpse they'd both just finished stabbing.
Repeatedly.
Meng Yao takes a deep breath, looking like he might flee anyway despite his reassurances, but when Nie Huaisang offers a hand, he takes hold of it.
The door to the hall slams open.
"Hello, Da-ge!" Nie Huaisang greets the first of their guests cheerfully.
