Round 2 for the Wild West!AU :D Featuring the second round of characters in the cast - my hand and iPad are actively dying /j

[ Nori - Nizhóní Burman ]

A former outlaw that returned to a more domesticated life after meeting Khan on the mexican-US border in 1871, Nori seemed to never quite adapt to running a town. While she could get behind the importance, she always felt the urge to leave for great travels again, returning to a life in a gang once again. Upon her suden disappearance one day, folks are rumoring that she might've given in, returning to her life as an Outlaw, while the Elders in the town whisper of her being taken by the Spirits of the West, in order to help them establish balance again. Whatever's true in the end, only she know, and only she may tell her tale.

[ Khan Hernandez Burman ]

The child of an indian immigrant and a mexican farmer, Khan grew up appreciating the desert around the border, being fascinated by not only the farmwork, but also capentry and building houses, as well as helping his father establish the settlement that came to be known as "Tumbleweed", a humble yet orderly town he now runs after his father's passing in the Winter. Since Nori's disappearance he'd been on the look for her ever since, raising their daughter Neera by himself and establishing her as his deputy.

[ Neera "Uzi" Burman ]

Coming after her mother in many regards, Neera (also known als "Uzi") also seeks a life beyond the borders of the town she grew up in - held back by her father's fear of her bringing harm upon herself or the town. Assisting her father with deputy and farm works, Neera's also quite fascinated by guns, repairing and cleaning her own repeaters and colts, as well as saving up to buy new ones she finds in stores and catalogues all around. In her free time (or when she sneaks off) she's often seen in Thaddeus' saloon, downing a whiskey or two to pass the time and gossip with her best friend.

[ Thaddeus "Thad" ]

Thaddeus, by most folks only known as "Thad", is the friendly face and bartender of Tumbleweed's only saloon. He came from the city and is actually Lizzie's brother - annoyed and quite bored by the city life and rapid industrialisation happening he moved further down to the border, where he met Khan and his daughter Neera. Taking over the old, run-down saloon Khan's father used to run inbetween sheriffs work, Thad's skills from having worked in the city before proved themselves useful.

[ Elizabeth "Lizzie" ]

Always a smile on her joyous face, Lizzie is known for her pompous demeanor, loud voice and a meanly swung dance leg in the bar. She does not shy away from embracing her feminine side while also standing up for herself and other women, especially during the women's rights movements happening in the US. She grew up in the city together with Victoria, who she considers her best friend... and secret crush. Since Lizzie got married, she and Victoria had to keep their relationship even more off a secret. Upon recieving a letter one day asking her to join Victoria in the countryside, Lizzie leaves the city - although with a heavy heart - to rejoice with her lover.

[ Victoria "Vicky" ]

Similar to Nathan and Jemima, Victoria grew up as an orphan, actually stationed in the same orphanage as the other two, where they got to know each other. Being adopted into the city by a middle class family, Victoria felt gratitude, although she deeply missed the countryside and hard work on a farm she'd experienced before her parent's death, eventually running away from home at the age of 17, leaving not only her family but also Lizzie behind in the city. Swearing to make enough money as a farmhand to one day purchase her own property, Victoria stood up to defy the stereotype of the "weak woman" at the time, proving herself daily.

JIKOOK KARMA STRIKES AGAIN… AND SO DOES THE CHAOS

Jimin and Jungkook talking—or better yet, teasing us—really took me back to that last Wlive they did with Joon and Tae, when they were teasing us about AYS. It’s that same chaotic energy, where they drop just enough hints to get us all curious but refuse to spill the details. And now, once again, I’m sure the average Jikooker is sitting somewhere, wondering what kind of stories they were referring to and why they’re suddenly ‘worried’ that we might go somewhere.

Like… go where exactly? What is it that we’re supposed to be running away from? Or towards? Are they concerned we’ll collectively lose our minds and ascend to another dimension? Do they think we’ll all log off en masse? (Unlikely. Jikookers have survived worse. We don’t log off.) Or are they, for some reason, imagining us physically running somewhere? The way they worded it was so dramatic, and considering how… well, dramatic they can be, I wouldn’t put it past them to exaggerate on purpose just to wind us up.

Now, I don’t know about you guys, but the first time I read that whole conversation it sent me in a completely different direction. Hobi said that he’d heard some of these stories before and they made him laugh so hard his stomach hurt and I swear, my first thought was that they were talking about something so funny that we’d all end up running to the bathroom because we’d be laughing so hard, we’d pee ourselves. That was genuinely my first assumption ajajajajajjaaj. I don’t know if that’s me oversharing, but I promise you, that was my immediate thought process when I saw their conversation. Like, they weren’t just hinting at something mildly amusing—they were acting like these stories were comedic gold.

And honestly? Knowing Jimin and Jungkook, I can totally see it. These two have always had a way of getting themselves into ridiculous situations, whether it’s by accident or on purpose. They’re the type of people who will be completely serious one second and then somehow descend into absolute chaos the next. The number of times they’ve been caught making each other laugh uncontrollably, to the point where they’re falling over, hitting each other is endless. So, I can only imagine what kind of things they’ve been through that they personally find hilarious.

But what really gets me is the way they spoke about it. Like, the absolute drama of it all. The way they said it was so unnecessarily intense. It’s such a Jimin and Jungkook thing to do—acting as if they’ve lived through some wild, untold saga when in reality, it’s probably just them being absolute menaces and laughing at the dumbest things. And yet, here we are, hanging onto their every word, waiting to hear what exactly happened. I just know that whatever these stories are, they’re going to be peak Jikook behaviour. I. CANT. WAIT.

Now, Switching topics for a moment—because I need to talk about this—if there’s one thing that has been proven time and time again, it’s that ‘Jikook karma’ is very real. I mean, we’ve seen it play out so many times over the years, and it just keeps happening.

Like, take what happened recently. A few days ago, I saw some Jikookers talking about how the vecinas were up to their usual nonsense, this time about a restaurant. Apparently, the restaurant itself had to step in and clarify some things, which, of course, immediately made the vecinas furious. And what did they do in response? They started sending hate to the restaurant owner and blaming BHM for everything under the sun—again. Like clockwork.

But that wasn’t even the only thing going on. For some reason, the vecinas and Solos also decided to revive their weird obsession with trying to prove that Jimin and Jungkook don’t spend time together. They went back to claiming that the two of them don’t share a dorm—or whatever it’s called in the military—and that they don’t even see each other, which is just… fascinating, considering the fact that Jungkook himself already said otherwise. So, in other words, they were basically calling Jungkook a liar.

And what happened next? Classic Jikook karma. Because not only did Jimin confirm that he and Jungkook do share a dorm (or sleep in the same place, however, you want to phrase it), but both of them also casually mentioned that they’ve been through so much together—so many incredible and probably hilarious moments—that they can’t wait to tell us about them… even though they’re not sure if they can tell us. Like, they want to share, but maybe they shouldn’t. I mean, if that’s not the ultimate ‘Jikook karma’ moment, I don’t know what is.

Now, back to the fun part of all this—because I need to focus on that instead of the nonsense—Jungkook absolutely killed me when he said, "June 11th!" basically implying that the day they’re discharged from the military, they’ll spill everything. The way he just threw that date out there so confidently was hilarious, like, that’s when you’ll know everything! I love him, but yeah… I don’t see that happening.

I don’t know if being a Jikooker has made me pessimistic because deep down, I feel like we’re not actually going to hear these stories they were bragging about today. Like, I want to believe it. I want to trust that they’ll actually spill, but something tells me they won’t. They’ll either decide last minute that it’s too embarrassing, or they’ll just keep hyping it up without ever giving us the details. And honestly? That’s fine. We should be used to it by now. If anything, it’ll just be another inside joke for the fandom. After all, it took almost four years for us to finally hear about the ‘rainy day fight’. Four years. So if we have to wait another few years to hear these new stories, well… I guess we just have to be patient. Again.

Bad Girl: Terry Silver x Reader

Tagging: @kmc1989 @thedeadsingforme @mia1653 @kimbergoldess @cortmac1989

Companion piece to:

Sick Day - Terry knows something is wrong when you don't pick up his call.

Love Story - Terry questions your taste in literature.

Health Care - Terry takes care of your healthcare siutation.

Recovery - Terry plays an active role in your recovery.

Money Matters - You and Terry discuss your money concerns.

You’ve been a bad girl. Terry finds this out after a meeting with his accountant about the tiny monetary increments that are being added to his bank account month after month. It’s only a hundred dollars here and there, but to you, someone who works two jobs to support themselves, it’s the difference between paying rent and eating.

 It infuriates Terry because he explicitly told you he doesn’t want you paying back the cost of your medical care. It was a gift, something he was happy to do because the love of his life was at death’s door and he couldn’t stand the thought of a world without her.

The part that really pisses him off is the duplicity of it, the fact you were able to fly under the radar for so long before he realised what was going on. That’s months of you struggling to make ends meet over some ridiculous perceived debt.

Which is why you’re face down over his lap, your wrists bound behind your back with that pretty silk scarf you were wearing when you breezed in as if you haven’t been picking up your groceries from a food bank so that you can eat.

Your skirt is shoved up over your hips, your underwear tugged up so it dips between your ass cheeks, each one crimson from the back of the silver hairbrush he’s been using to spank you with.

“You’re taking it back.” He says forcefully, his leather gloved palm lightly caresses that perfect peach. The scent of your arousal floods his senses and he wants to bury his face between your thighs, to taste that honey on his tongue but that’s only for good girls.

And you are certainly not being a good girl right now.

“No.” You bite out and Terry growls his response, pinching just enough to make you writhe against his lap.

“Georgia.” He snarls but you’re already tilting your head to look at him over your shoulder with that steely look in your eyes.

“Terry baby, you can spend all night working me up like this and it won’t change a damn thing. I’m not taking back that money.” He spanks you again and you bite your lip holding back the moan that threatens to erupt from your throat as the leather kisses your skin.

It’s unusual that you’re stubborn like this. The two of you don’t disagree on much but there are a couple of things you dig your heels in over and this is apparently the hill you’re making a stand on.

Terry knows when he’s beat so instead of dishing out another punishment he counters with a proposal.

“Dinner with me, four times a week.” He negotiates, already forming a plan to resolve the situation. “You take home left overs so I know you’re eating something other than ramen and cereal.”

His issue is that you’re not eating properly because you can’t afford to, he suspects poor diet is one of the reasons you were susceptible to pneumonia in the first place. You won’t let him pay for groceries but you abhor food waste so if he asks his chef to batch cook a few of your favourite meals you’ll have no choice but to make use of them so they don’t spoil.

“You’ll keep the money?” You ask and he squeezes that sweet peach tightly in his hand as he makes a noise of non-committal.

He will not be keeping that money, what he will be doing with it is investing it for you so that you can build your own nest egg. When the time’s right he’ll return it to you tenfold and then you can cuss him out for manipulating you, the same way that you’ve been manipulating him.  

“Do we have a deal?” He asks, his gloved fingertips chasing down between your legs, tracing teasing circles over your clit.

“Yes.” You cry out as he taps it lightly, the impact causing you to arch against him.

“Good girl.” Terry purrs, his fingers snagging the elastic of your panties before he drags them down your thighs. “Now let’s have little fun now, shall we?”

pt.1

Everywhere Yuji went, he couldn't stop thinking about you. God, your smile was just...so pretty. He was starting to believe you just weren't real. And your laugh was adorable. He made it his goal to make you laugh every time you two hung out and he achieved that goal every single time. The way you purposefully sang horribly when you both sang songs together in his dorm just because he was a horrible singer and you weren't was so cute to him.

Oh.

Oh...

Right.

You two didn't talk anymore.

Because of a slip of his words.

But now you two were in the back of Ijjichi's car, driving to a mission's location. And you had sat on the other side of the vehicle instead of next to him like you usually did. Even that little change hurt his heart.

You leaned on the car window, looking at the grey sky and raindrops falling harshly, just like the day he'd spent crying over you in his dorm. Days like these were either the best or worst days.

Once you arrive at the destination, Ijjichi lets you out of the car and tells you exactly where the curse should be. You silently lead the way while Yuji follows quietly behind you, hating this silence and himself for ever saying anything. The cold air felt like an insult on its own, making everything feel more...crisp and whispy.

He was sure he loved you, even if he'd never been in love before, he knew this was it. But in his head, he believed that he would never be good enough for you. He didn't hate himself for telling you, he hated himself for having these feelings in the first place.

Nonetheless, you both find the curse and very easily exorcize it without saying a word to each other. You didn't know how to feel anymore. Liking Yuji romantically had never been a thing you'd thought about or even wanted. It was always Megumi on your mind. Even if he was kinda a bitch, you still liked him. But for what?

Why couldn't you make up a reason why you couldn't like Yuji?

He was perfect in his design and he had just confessed to you, whether intentionally or not.

So why didn't you like him?

And that was the question both of you'd been asking yourselves silently for the past few days.

The forest area was gloomy with only little rays of dull sunshine forcing themselves through the bushy trees while the rain continued to berate your heads as if mad.

Yuji pulled up his hood as you walked back, though it didn't seem like a way to protect himself from the rain. It looked like he wanted to hide himself from the world. Curl up into a ball and break down again. He never looked so...lifeless before. His eyes were dull and the lack of his usual pretty smile made everything feel so much worse.

There goes that guilt. The way your stomach fills with a sort of emptiness and your throat feels smaller tells you might've not been the only one wanting to break down.

But why did you feel that way?

You wanted to say something, just to ask if he was okay. Of course, you could tell he wasn't, but you still wanted to try. You just couldn't find your voice as the corners of your eyes tingled with emotions you couldn't understand.

And Yuji...poor Yuji. He'd never felt so alone. He talked to Nobara about it and that was the first time she hadn't yelled at him in a conversation in a while.

"I just...want my best friend back. Without the whole feelings thing." "Well, you can't control how you feel. And you don't know how they truly feel either. They decided to shut themselves away from everyone, but they never directly stated what they felt for you or Megumi or anyone else." "But-" "Itadori. You know I'm right." "Yeah, I guess...but how would I even bring that up? I've already ruined whatever we had and made it weird." "No, you didn't. Ask them what they want and if it's really worth all of this sneaking around the problem." "..." "And Itadori, it's not your fault. I might not be an expert, but I know that you're not half-bad as a friend and I'm sure you'd be great to them if you ever got the chance to be more."

Yuji had been thinking about that conversation ever since. Nobara seemed right, and he thought about doing as she'd told him, but he was scared. He didn't know why he was scared. He'd already made a fool of himself, so why not do it a little more?

But then, what was there for you to cry about?

Maybe those unrequited feelings about Megumi.

Or were they really ever about him in the first place...?

Welp, my beloved @bberetd... You asked for this 😌💖

✨ Bliss ✨

Mario places his umbrella over his shoulder while extending his other hand, imitating the demure and modest pose of his princess. He smiles, feeling very comfortable in his new, custom-made pink dress, although he can't help wondering how Peach manages to keep the crown from falling off her head. He can only admire her even more for her elegance and grace.

He turns around and the skirt of his dress, as well as the petticoat he’s wearing underneath, get tangled around his legs. When he stops, his brother, for whom Daisy's outfit fits like a glove, including the crown, stands in front of him with a radiant smile on his lips. With his fake freckles glistening on his cheeks, Luigi winks and gives him an enthusiastic thumbs up.

“You look great, bro!”

“Really?” Mario's smile widens and he holds the skirt to lift it a little and extend it to the side. “Does pink suit me?”

“Wonderfully!” Luigi assures him, applauding him. “You look stunning! Besides, you seem to be quite comfortable, and that's the most important thing.”

Mario laughs and rubs the back of his neck, feeling a bit shy at his twin's compliments. He’s glad that Luigi has encouraged him to finally take the plunge and, together, try dressing like their princesses, and not leave one single detail out. While his younger brother has always been more open about wearing dresses, skirts, heels and all kinds of typically feminine clothing, he, too, has always felt an unusual curiosity about such garments. It was only a matter of time before Luigi managed to convince him to finally try them on.

However, just as he was about to praise his twin's outfit too, the door opens at that very moment. The brothers turn their heads at the same time, startled, and only then does Mario remember that they had arranged a meeting with the princesses this afternoon to have tea together...

Only they had counted on having time to change back into their classic overalls first.

Even though he isn’t looking at him, Mario can sense from his brother's tense posture that he feels as caught out as he does. And it’s no wonder, since Peach and Daisy, standing in the doorway and carrying shopping bags, have been rendered speechless and are watching them in silence. The first one seems bewildered, completely taken aback, while the second one clearly judges them with her gaze as she examines them from top to bottom.

As if they had rehearsed it, the twins swallow at the same time. Their shoulders brush as they begin to back away, cowering, intimidated. In a reflex action, Mario brings his hands to his chest and begins to bring his index fingertips together and apart over and over again, while desperately searching for something to say...

But Daisy is faster than him.

“Hey, Peach,” she begins, nudging her, “don't you think it’s funny? We came to visit the brothers, and it turns out they have a couple of portraits of us in the hall...”

Peach lets out a low giggle and immediately covers her mouth with her hand.

“Indeed. What a surprise!”

“And hey...” Daisy starts.

“Don't you think that...” Peach continues.

“We look amazing!”

The princesses shout the last sentence in unison as they raise their arms above their heads, startling the brothers. Then they both pounce on them and wrap their arms around them. Mario notices the delicacy with which Peach hugs him so as not to ruin his dress despite her excitement, but he can't help but notice how Daisy, without any hesitation, hugs Luigi with such energy that she almost takes his breath away.

Suddenly, the brothers find themselves receiving praise and admiration for their beautiful dresses, their crowns, their gloves, Mario's parasol, Luigi's freckles and even the earrings adorning their ears. Feeling increasingly confident and relaxed, the two start posing, each copying a princess: Mario is delighted to represent the graceful and elegant Princess Peach, and Luigi is, no doubt, enjoying every second he gets to pretend to be his daring and sassy Princess Daisy. In fact, it is he who places his back against Mario's and brings his hands to his chest with his index fingers joined and extended, adopting one of the famous Charlie's Angels poses, which Mario hastens to join.

The girls then remember that they have just been shopping and hurry to rummage through their bags. Peach takes out a striking feather boa in a shade of blue somewhat darker than her earrings and, without a moment’s hesitation, places it around the plumber's neck. Mario smiles and adjusts the garment, thrilled to share this moment with her and to have her support.

In turn, Daisy takes out an enormous purple boa, her favorite color, and approaches Luigi with a solemn step. As if she were awarding the prize for the most beautiful princess, Daisy places the boa around the neck of Luigi, who has stood up straight and closed his eyes, very much into the role. Still, as soon as Daisy finishes, Luigi gives her the most radiant and brightest smile, his cheeks standing out so much that his fake freckles almost disappear under his eyes.

Next, the princesses go to put on their dresses too, as they were wearing more comfy clothes for their shopping time together. There’s always clothing for them in the brothers’ home, as they’ve stayed for the night many times already, so in the meantime the boys prepare the table for tea. Luigi has also baked a cake that looks so delicious that it’s taken all Mario's willpower, and a few scoldings from his brother, not to sink his teeth into it before time.

Soon, everyone is sitting around the table, the brothers in the center so that they can show off their beautiful dresses and their flashy boas. Daisy is even more talkative than usual and can't stop looking at Luigi, her eyes filled with a mixture of pride, affection and amusement that makes Mario smile. His little brother, knowing that he’s loved and admired, also laughs and chats non-stop, which makes Mario extremely pleased.

And he feels elated when he notices the quick looks that Peach gives him between sips, not only of approval, but also of mutual understanding and, like Daisy, affection and pride.

Despite his blushing, Mario feels his heart fuller with infinite bliss than ever.

He can’t think of a better way to spend the afternoon.

always follow after your role models

Moon in the 8th Synastry ‧₊˚🕯️🖤❀‧₊ ---------------------------------------- The Plight of Obsession <3

Today, Tumblrerians I will start this series off with THE INFAMOUS moon in the 8th house synastry... 🍷

(this is also my first post, so I hope you enjoy it, and please give me recommendations in the comments on what I should post next! now enjoy this lengthy post I have awaiting you❣️)

I have had this synastry placement a few times in my life. From my observations, the romantic interactions pertaining to this synastry tend to be more intense than the platonic. But let’s be honest, all 8th house synastry is insane and will drive you to the looney bin😍 unless both people express themselves in healthy ways, but like still. Upon meeting this person, something about them will intrigue you, and something about you will intrigue them. This kind of energy wraps tightly around your heart before you can even realize what is occurring. After you notice these feelings, it is often too late and now you are in for a ride of emotions that honestly is really no longer your choice.

This kind of situation can drive you mad because just one interaction with someone who shares this synastry with you, and it will pull at your heart strings. You sit there wondering why you are so riled up about someone that you don't even know that well. Why you hitch your breath after just one glance from them; and it has only been a week since you've met them you tell yourself. But in that one week that goes by, the thought of them has fully gripped your mind for those seven days. And the nightmare that occurs after you are separated from each other, their energy lingers and you begin to miss them deeply even though you don't even consciously know who they are. Subconsciously however, you know exactly who they are, what they need and desire.

On the other hand, there can also at the same time exist an energy of deep anger and hatred for this person because they trigger suppressed resentment and issues that deeply imbedded within you. Whether it is love or hatred, a common occurrence can be an energy of mutual obsession. Where the both of you are so enamored by each other because you both are experiencing a one of a kind event with one another. Intentional or unintentional, they will trigger everything that you want to hide and keep hidden away from the world. If you had a painful emotional experience from the past, whether or not you addressed it, their presence will remind you of those times. They might not be putting intentional effort to trigger you either, most of the time they’re not even aware, it just happens because their moon (a luminary) illuminates that area of your chart. You’re not the only one who feels it though. They feel it as well. Once again, if you have any dormant emotions, painful experiences from the past that you've overlooked and elements that you haven't processed, if you are suppressing anything, then this can become a painful situation with an obsessive and ruminative energy. Yet, through the pain you will certainly grow. Over time, you will find yourself wanting to dump your trauma on them.

The 8th house is also the house of intense emotions such as deep hatred, but in that space there also exists deep love and devotion. Loyalty is a big theme in this house. However, being around this person can be a mirror in which you see your pain and you are forced to tend to these internal scars. This kind of synastry permanently alters you. You are not the same person as you were before you met them. The beauty of the synastry is the level of vulnerability you could reach with the other person. Yet it is terrifying because that means this person has the same power to hurt you at your most vulnerable.

This synastry is known for creating that hidden hush hush element where you have to hide this connection, and most times there is a forbidden aspect to the connection. I was in a situation like this where I couldn't tell anyone about this connection. There is a mutual obsession and both parties are very highly likely to stalk each other through social media, location tracking, etc. You just have an addiction to stalking each other to be frank. Emotions, obsession, they want to pry into your life, figure out everything about you, they want to know everything you are hiding. They might even have an idea of what you are feeling/hiding since this house is also telepathic. For example, if you left a journal at their house, they 100% would read it because they get so nosy about you haha. Or let's say you're working on your laptop they're gonna stand behind you and try to see what you're doing. It reminds me of the line from Wait a Minute! by WILLOW that says:

You left your diary at my house And I read those pages Do you really love me, baby?

lastly, Hey Boy by Kali Uchis and Omar Apollo

I wonder how you really feel about me  I love those feelings that you bottle you should pour them on me Baby I can't believe you had to live a life without me Come here and show me how you feel I wanna see if it's real

Extra observations:

❤️

This tends to be a telepathic connection. You will feel them at all times. Whether you want to or not, you will feel their presence. If they are around, you will feel it. If they enter the room, you will feel it. Your heart will start beating really fast, nausea (just a bit hopefully??), hands will shake, you get into fight or flight mode basically. And when they leave, you will feel it the most because their presence is adjacent to a high. When they're gone, the high you get from them is gone too. If the relationship is sexual, they want to feel your core emotions they want to destroy your emotional walls and feel the most center parts of you.

There's a kind of sexual obsession that both parties get entangled into with each other. You'll have a desire to connect extremely deeply with them. There's this feeling of wanting to absorb all of them and give yourself to them in return. It's such a down bad feeling lol, like pure desperation and dedication. Like you need them or else you'll die. It's truly a situation where you'll always come back to each other. Now there are instances where this synastry can become negative such as situations of abuse or lack of trust where you definitely should cut them off, it may be gut wrenching and painful that is also one of the lessons of 8th house synastry; to have the courage to move on even though it is extremely hard to do so.

There's this idea of masochism associated with this synastry. Where both parties enjoy suffering at the hands of each other. There is an energy of pleasurable torture that could take place. There is suffering and torture but as long as the two members of the party do it together, they accept it. This is the toxic side of 8th house synastry.

There is extreme possessiveness involved with this synastry that one cannot avoid. You both will never want the other to be with anyone else. The energy of another person's property and ownership gets involved since the 8th house is opposite to and aspecting the 2nd house which is related to personal property and assets; but with the 8th house, it becomes a matter of the property of someone else. You get involved in each other's deep emotions and rich inner life. To put it simply, you feel like you own each other. There is also a blurring of boundaries in all areas of life. You don't know what ends or starts in relation to each other. The planet person might also desire to spoil you with their money and assets. They want to give you nice things.

You both WILL DEFINITELY CRYYYY over each other. Like this synastry is no joke. You can try to avoid it by holding it down in the depths of your soul but this is just something ur ass cannot avoid aajsshhahsjdjjdjdjdjfjfkkfkdjd. Most of the time, you both won't even know that you're crying over each other because you want to keep your feelings hidden to protect yourself. Anyways, the sexual tension you can cut with a knife. I think I will make a whole separate post about that. But yall this will kinda take over your whole life. The intense eye contact WILL happen as well, there's no way around it. You both are going to love staring in each other's eyes too, there's a rush that comes with the eye contact. You can only dream of touching each other. To put it simply 8th house synastry is all about deep care, deep devotion, deep intimacy, money, ownership, other people's resources, painful emotions, intense sexual energy, tears, binding love, eye contact, gifts, suffering, intense attachment, possession of each other, undying obsession, sacrifice for each other, and "I'll never forget you". Think MORTICIA AND GOMEZ OMGGG

NYX #8 Review

*Spoilers!!- it’s finally here guys!!!*

———————————————————————

The issue starts with the Preview that I’ve probably shared like five times- Hellion remembering Krakoa and wanting to be free.

The guards are asking him about the bodies (this’ll be important later!) when Laura’s rescue team arrives…

Sophie enters his thoughts/psychically invades his mind …(It’s a nice call back to Jean entering Emma’s mind after the affair, in Morrison!) 

Honestly the whole scene is lovely and wonderfully done! Julian lecturing a dead and recently returned Sophie that life is pain is a really nice choice! This whole scene was really carefully done and I applaud Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly fully for it- this is why people read and love X-Men! 

Sophie realizes Manuel ISN’T controlling Hellion and can’t find the information they need.

Laura then tells Julian “SO you want to be a supervillain…” (someone is going to electrocute themselves with all those sparks from the crash btw!) and decidedly takes a more brutal approach instead of telepathy. (So basically foreplay… just LOOK at his smile 🤣🤣🤣)

Julian calls her bluff, saying that Laura doesn’t kill anymore. (It’s a good thing he didn’t try this during the KYOST years… there IS a chance she would have stabbed him😳🤣)

Sophie threatens to leave him to Graymalkin and Julian rightly says “that’s not very X-Men-y”…. Which is kind of true. (I really need to invest in “Hellion IS RIGHT” t-shirts!)

Laura finally gets fed up and threatens to just take his hands again! (that’s a REALLY LOW BLOW Laura to someone just got their hands back!… just kidding, Julian LOVES it… just look at his grin!) 

Julian says what pretty much EVERYONE has been saying for YEARS- Laura is a crappy friend. (BINGO!! 🤣)

Laura responds to this epiphany by tearing up an entire forest. 

Kiden basically does the  “what did you even see in him” (I mean… there WAS short shorts Kiden… 🩳).

Laura finally admits she was in love with Julian and that Hellion was the first one that was truly there for her. Again, this is really nicely done- this issue is as much Laura’s as it is Hellion’s, in that we finally see Laura facing how much she’s changed and grown since her “X-23” days. 

As much as Laura dwells on how “different” she is from everyone else…”Pinocchio instead of a real boy”… you see the harsh truth that everyone must eventually face, the truth of time- that we often have completely changed from who we were during our first innocent “love”.  That we all are forced to change from who we were… often several times in life…

(Also… when did they kiss besides in Liu…I really HOPE it wasn’t when Julian was sleeping?? Oh god!) 

Laura admits she idealized him- she made a version of Julian in her head that isn’t completely him.

Kiden admits she used to watch Laura sleep too… that Kiden ALSO “made a version of Laura in her head” and that their dynamic has changed to time as well… (also everyone is apparently watching each other sleep now…)

During her conversation with Kiden, Laura realizes she needs to treat Julian like a person…like a friend.

That Julian has trials and tribulations too… he isn’t some “perfect person or violent monster”, but an individual that has his own set of issues…that Laura isn’t the only person caging herself. Caging her pain.

Julian of course blows up with this change in their little têtê a têtê… saying that he’s tired of people dying. That they should be angry over everything they have suffered and it’s the human faults.

Laura tells him that the reality is he gave up his hands to save people (and when put Karima in a coma! Laura didn’t mention that, but I will add it in…); that ultimately he is still a hero.

Laura calls Julian’s bluff- the reason no one can find the bodies is because he didn’t kill anyone (well at least not any politicians… maybe people on Subway… but we’re going to ignore all that…)

The issue ends with Julian remembering the “Crucible”, knowing that the return of his hands won’t truly fix the pain. That Julian has to do that himself.

There’s also a hint at Xavier… but no one really cares about that.

Review:

First of all… some housekeeping…I will now not be changing this blog to literary and film rants … so you can all breathe a sigh of relief that I will not be posting long winded think- pieces, such as “Is Mr. Thornton from “North and South” better than Mr. Darcy?”… (Spoiler- He is.) 

This issue is wonderfully done- I know I have been critical of NYX… but this is one of the best issues of X-Men that I have seen in a while (and I am not just saying this because Hellion is my favorite!).

It was just nicely thought out- start to finish. 

WHEN people ask me- “Why do you like X-Men?”… this right here, is the answer.

It’s not the messy “mutant metaphor”. Or the action scenes. Or the “Xavier Institute”. Or the “cool island”. Or the “ big speeches about Phoenix destroying the planet”…

It’s the characters. It’s the heart.

I really appreciate Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly remembering that and taking the time to consider the characters- to consider the story… because this has been what has been missing from X-Men.

This was just a GREAT issue, start to finish! 

It considered all the point of views from each character. It took the time to tell the story. It considered prior canon. 

The art was beautiful. I especially loved the “back and forth” cat and mouse between Laura and Julian and the representation of their dynamic and tension.

Theories:

It’s obviously going to be “Kiden and Laura” as endgame… but I’m honestly okay with that. 

I am just happy that after fourteen years, “Misadventures in Babysitting” and the KYOST friendship with Laura and Hellion was finally addressed and how Julian was represented- not as an unredeemable and abuser… not as perfect… but a person… 

Julian has made peace with Wind Dancer in “X-Factor” and now Laura in “NYX”… things are truly looking up for Hellion…

Which probably means he will die soon (I’m just kidding, I swear!! 🤣) 

Sigh- I really don’t care about the Xavier issue. The only version of Xavier I have ever actually liked is the “Patrick Stewart/James McAvoy one”. 😐

Kamala isn’t going to be happy. Julian is probably going to be rearrested and Bilal will try to kill him.

But Julian got his moment in the sun guys! 

Bonus:

Let’s SEE how I did…

I almost checked off “Laura steps on his face” because the arm thing was kind of close… but “Hiketeia” it is not…

Kind of wish I had “Laura uses her foot claws” on there (DID NOT see that coming 🤣🤣🥵😭)

Julian DIDN’T actually cry, that I saw… but Kiden WAS jelly (never bring up NIN when trying to hit on someone Kiden… doesn’t work 😔)

Came really close to a bingo… but I’m way happier it WASN’T “Misadventure 2.0” 🤣🤣🤣

Naughty Babe Color Theory

This post is a about the upcoming colors story I think we will see in Naughty Babe.

Indulgent Daddy Yi is a Red Rascal and his fiancé, Diao, is a Yellow/Orange Oddity. This was apparent in the colors in Cutie (Colored) Pie.

However, I noticed during the pilot trailer that Yi seems to changing his color now that he is in the relationship from red to blue, and the official trailer confirmed it.

This is causing Diao to lose his color.

However, when Yi crashes his car, everything is red.

And as the trailer showed, he starts to gain back his red as he tries to find out who wants him dead

and reconnects with Diao in that special way they connect.

Which causes his man to gain back his color.

So let's see how this theory (and the colors) unfold because I refuse to believe my Indulgent Daddy is bi-colored!

He is a wolf Red Rascal in sheep's Blue Boy clothes.

Team Give My Boys Back Their Color!

Adding my thoughts here. For me, it’s important to note that Harry practically told us through clues that the album could make more sense if you listen to it in reverse order. It honestly blew my mind.

While it might seem like an epilogue, I think LOML works as a prologue to me. Like @lurkinginacoolway said above, it’s Harry showing that there were parts of the relationship (or their lives as a whole) that definitely weren’t the healthiest or the prettiest thing to see or experience, but they had to endure all of it. It was like a flashback of him, thinking that it could’ve been the end at that point (within the context of LOML), hence the tone (closure; saying goodbye).

In the end though, they found themselves back to each other, ready to start all over again. In the next track, Boyfriends, we hear a rewinding effect with the line “fool, you’re back at it again” played backwards. It’s him putting himself back in that position of falling back into something he thought had ended (LOML). With all the pain they tried to work through after everything else that had happened at that point—trying to navigate those emotions and continue loving despite the hardships—it’s perfectly normal to have doubts about whether you’re doing the right thing by going back to that position.

Continuing through the next tracks, you’ll notice the progression: from him reaching out (“don’t you know that I am right here”), to trying to enjoy the moment, to ‘goofing around’ and learning to accept that they really are probably endgame no matter what. There’s discovering new parts of himself or their relationship, resolving issues they never got to discuss before, finding solace with each other, enjoying the newfound peace they’ve embraced, and fully accepting that this is it—he never wants to let go and loves him with all of his entirety.

So yep, Harry’s House is an overall happy, love-letter-like album for me. LOML as a track sums up the rocky stages of their relationship (in the band, with each other, and within themselves), but it was just a mere prologue to the beginning of the real story—the one where they’ve matured, healed from the bruises of their past, and decided to continue loving each other anyway.

Or maybe that’s just me.

(Also, HH’s album cover being him looking at the ceiling of upside down house + the trailer being reversed are such big clues to me, idk. And I cannot stress enough how important it is to me to hear the reversed album start from “baby, you were the love of my life” and end with “you know I love you, baby”)

yesterday i read a tweet that says "loml is a closure goodbye to their past" and now your anon pointing out to the 28 seconds long outro—

loml being the final track with an outro just hurt me a bit but im gonna pretend its about the queen elizabeth for my own sanity idc! 🤝🤝🎉🎉

I don't see how people see it as a breakup song. But I also just don't care anymore.

[youssefguedira]

the thing is abt the joenicky wouldn't have stopped searching take is that like. they're not Better Than andy / quynh and they don't necessarily love each other More. i find it interesting to examine the idea that THEY think they couldn't have stopped but ultimately because it's not them i think they'd have no way of understanding andy's position + circumstance would've made them stop in the end. again like in my tag rant i think they're both too concerned with the greater good. they would not place each other over that. in the end.

[miniagula]

movie sonadow would be so l umity-coded…and i say this bc their dynamic is similar to the games but with a different and tender perspective: they both empathize deeply with each other now, and this shadow is not as reticent or closed off bc of that. that being said: movie!sonic would ABSOLUTELY 'YOU'RE the sweet potato!' the hell out of shadow

Sasha has developed quite the habit of getting lost in Leon's eyes, so it takes him a bit to pull himself out of his quiet moment of awe. "Ah... Y-Yes, we should head back before it gets too late..." He huffs a breath at his own smitten state and then waves the waitress back over to pay for their food. He leaves a generous tip that has the waitress smile widely at him and he reciprocates with a warm smile of his own as they say their goodbyes.

He has to fight the urge to reach for Leon's hand as they make their way back to their bikes and it's only due to the fact that he chooses to put his helmet on a bit earlier than necessary that they aren't pressed against eachother as soon as they're out of sight from other people. Sasha still thinks that it's probably for the best that he keeps his hands to himself, at least if they still want to accomplish anything of value today. If Leon notices his poor attempt at staying focused he doesn't comment on it, which strikes him as odd, given that Sasha had caught him so thoroughly off guard earlier. At the very least he expected a small retaliation—

Except, Leon doesn't exactly need to say or do anything to tie Sasha's gutt into knots of anticipation. Just one look out of the opened visor of Leon's helmet before he snaps it shut has Sasha's mouth go dry with the certainty that he has not forgotten what Sasha offered earlier. And even just the thought of it has his heart beat faster and his legs feel a bit unsteady.

The way back to the hotel seems to go by faster and yet at the same time somehow slower than the way to the restaurant earlier. It's just as thrilling, just as electrifying to watch Leon lean into each curve of the road and Sasha can't shake the feeling that this is how they were supposed to be for a lot longer than either of them realized. He gets lost in the feeling for a bit. Together. Side by side. It's a mad and unreasonably romanticized notion that overcomes him suddenly, but not for the first time. He shakes the thought best he can, it's not the time for it, and instead he decides once again to take things as they are, as they come. Second by second, minute by minute. But if he pulls Leon into another kiss after they arrive at the hotel because he is endeared by his flushed cheeks and messy helmet hair rather than aroused by the knowledge of what is to come once they make it upstairs he doesn't have to say it in as many words for it to be true ...

Still, it is hard to deny that Sasha's mind is turning the thought of having Leon, or rather being had by him, over in his mind the entire way up to his room and it's rather difficult to keep a straight face when they make it to the door and his lover shoots him a knowing look over his shoulder before unlocking it.

Room service has straightened out the bed and the suits Sasha ordered for Leon to try on rest on too. They are probably the only reason the two of them don't immediately find themselves in a tangle of limbs on the mattress. Sasha moves to lean his cane against one of the nearby chairs and shrugs off his leather jacket. When he gets back Leon's already inspecting the suits, rubbing the material of a sleeve between a thumb and index finger. Sasha walks up behind him and leans in to press a kiss to the crook of his neck. His hands alight on Leon's hips, a thumb sneaks beneath the fabric of his undone jacket and shirt to brush against warm skin.

"Do you need help undressing?" Sasha purrs against the side of his neck, pointedly teasing rather than anything else. Leon does need to pick out a suit after all, and they probably should make another attempt at memorizing their cover story just to be safe before the afternoon fully settles into evening.

He breathes a quiet sigh of relief when Leon dispels any looming awkwardness immediately by telling him how agreeable he finds Sasha's offer. His comment goes as far as startling a laugh out of him in turn. "I'll keep any innuendos until after we're done eating then." He relents. It's for the best, since Sasha's mind is busy conjuring up a few very colorful scenarios as well.

Until Leon asks, in his own way, if Sasha is sure of what he is suggesting. He appreciates the out he is given, but he isn't one to say things he doesn't mean. His lips part to tell him just that, but that's when the waitress returns with their drinks and Sasha is reminded once again of where they are.

"Lets keep this discussion until after dinner as well." He says, but the darkness of his eyes matches that of Leon's. "Then I'll show you how serious I am about all of this."

With that decided, Sasha stirrs the conversation away from any sort of topic that may leave them having trouble focusing on their food. He avoids talking about the mission as well. It's not a conversation to be had in public either. So, instead of all that he ends up telling Leon about this area of town. What it has become, what it used to be, and shares a few bits and pieces of his childhood tied to it. It's been a long time since he actually lived here and this part of town, despite being located on the outskirts, is no longer as rural as it used to be back then.

"I went to school just down the road from here." He says at some point. "Not for long, though. A year, maybe two." He shrugs. "My mother took a job as a nurse in a hospital closer to the city center and we moved there." He smiles to himself as he thinks of simpler times. "That was when I met J. D. and Irina." Time has softened the edges of grief and guilt, and while that doesn't mean he doesn't miss both of them every single day, he can at least think back to those days now without tainting their memory with the darkness of his thoughts.

World Tour Assistant Noah AU (where he is always an assistant):

After the gross kiss failed to stop Alejandro's flirting... Noah begs Duncan to convince Alejandro, that Noah is too dorky to date... but Duncan has an even better idea; make Alejandro jealous for fun!

(In this AU, Duncan and Courtney had broken up before Season 3, so Duncan isn't a cheater!)

Duncan: "Thanks for letting me return to the show, handsome.~" 😘

(Duncan kisses Assistant Noah's cheek.)

Alejandro: "Duncan, I will DESTROY you!" 😡

Noah: "I just want to be left alone!" 🙄

Wait hold on... hold on... this is just the premise of my favourite Dunnoah fic series but with an assistant Noah twist. And extra Alenoah flavouring. That's not to say I'm against the idea.

Though I can't really imagine Duncan ever committing himself to flirting with Noah unless the two had struck up a deal prior- Duncan's that specific brand of 2000s era bigoted where being seen as anything but straight is a social crime (despite the fact that Duncan is definitely a boykisser, just in denial), but he's also aware of just how much of a threat Alejandro is in the competition and the latino's huge obvious crush on Chris' personal assistant, so I think Duncan could push aside his own internal biases to at the very least propose a similar idea to Noah.

Really, it'd be beneficial for the both of them; Noah gets to subtly-not-so-subtly tell Alejandro to back off by responding to Duncan's advances but not his, and Duncan gets to rile up Alejandro enough to redivert his attention away from the competition itself thus increasing his own chances of winning. It's strategic, really, nothing more.

It's that line of logic that has Noah eventually conceding that, for all intents and purposes, it's a good plan. So he deigns to play along, at least for a little bit, just to get Alejandro off of his back.

And, canonically, they're both shown to be at least half-decent at flirting, so whatever displays they have planned to annoy Alejandro would be just convincing enough to really get under his skin. Especially since Alejandro's shown in canon to be the protective/possessive type (mostly in All-Stars, in how he reacts to José insulting Heather) and likely wouldn't take too kindly to Duncan swooping in on "his amor" or whatever Spanish nickname he'd substitute it with.

Which all eventually leads to the scenario you proposed; Duncan plants a wet one on Noah's cheek and Alejandro sees red.

Noah's already exhausted by default, but feels weariness seep into the marrow of his bones as a seething Alejandro glares poisonous daggers towards Duncan, who's committed enough to their little ruse to in turn shoot a wink and a pair of finger guns towards the assistant. Deciding that he isn't paid nearly enough to deal with the inevitable confrontation between the two idiots who've apparently taken an interest in him (Duncan's, of course, being a known ruse), Noah leaves to go and do his actual job.

...

And then, Alejandro confronts Duncan directly in the Economy cabin, claiming that he doesn't deserve to so much as look at Noah, and that he (Alejandro) was the one Noah kissed and therefore the object of his attraction so Duncan better lay off. This is news to the punk, and adds a whole new layer of complexity to their plan. And perhaps something he can later exploit to give himself a leg up in the competition.

But why does the idea of Noah kissing Alejandro make his chest tighten up with envy?

And then maybe Duncan finds the untamed passion of Alejandro's genuine fury kind of hot and he too enters the metaphorical boxing ring of feelings? Aledunnoah endgame? The intern server has been posting a lot of Aleduncan lately so letting those two get together (and with Noah in there too, as a bonus) just seems natural to my brain at this point.

wrestling fic writers!!

i have decided to be the change i wanna see, so lets do a nice little thing for each other, as a community full of incredible and talented writers. yes this is writer specific only, but thats cause thats where the main problem of people not interacting with creative works lies in this fandom as far as i can tell and have seen people talking about it especially in the last couple of months

if you read this, please add links to your written works. it can be just a single fic youre really proud of, your writing blog, your writing tag, your ao3 account, anything where your works can be found

and if you leave your link here, PLEASE check out someone else that has left their works, and interact with them. leave them a comment, even just a kudos, REBLOG their fic, etc. interacting is the keyword i want to emphasize here, along with building a sort of a masterpost of where to find people writing in this fandom

and if you are not a writer, youre still highly encouraged to interact with this post and share it and show love to the writers in this fandom, obviously!! i think that should go without saying, but adding it in anyways

a bit more about my vision and resources and such under the read more, but thats the gist of it. happy linking and please be kind and supportive to each other!! 💜

nobody is too big or too small to add their things on this list. if you write and post anything in this fandom whatsoever, be it fics or drabbles or headcanons, any companies or any kind of ships or reader inserts or any content whatsoever no matter how 'dead dove dont eat' or hell even if its just meta, we welcome all here and nobody can say that one thing is less valid than another. just please tag your content accordingly, especially if theres content warnings, and feel free to mention what you write, who you write, any info you wish to leave that would help people before they click on your links. but even so, that should not and hopefully will not deter people from interacting, no matter what it is. someones trash is another ones treasure, i promise you

and unless the amount gets really overwhelming, im personally going to be checking out everyone that leaves something here. unless it squeaks me out, but even then, i'll spread the word. and i just wish as many people as possible will do the same, and not just use this as a potential board to only get eyes on their stuff. ofc thats also the point, but you should give as much, if not more, than you get. we need to be kind and supportive of one another (besides, from personal experience, if you show love to someone else, they are more likely to do it back than without you taking the first step, so... pay it forward)

as for resources, heres a few links that should be helpful in leaving comments and feedback. of course everyone does their own thing and no comment is too big or too small to leave, but for those who need them. if you have anything you'd like added to this list, dont hesitate to get in touch or drop it in the post yourself!!

101 comment starters

kudos html

dont know how to comment? easy solutions

a quick hot guide to commenting (by yours truly)

an overall guide to appreciating fanfic writers

and just in general.. leave people comments. leave them asks about their projects. just go over and gush about their work. i know it sounds embarrassing but writers love nothing more than to hear that someone likes what they are doing. if you find a fic that hasnt been updated in forever, comment on it. it might just be the spark the author needs to continue. while kudos and likes are nice, and just as valuable to some, its definitely in the words the people leave for them that matter the most. im not saying this to put pressure on anyone, its just how it is, and i feel like unless people are writers themselves, and even then sometimes, thats just hard to grasp, especially if the writer is a smaller and less popular one who doesnt get a lot of traffic in the first place

i think thats all. just be nice and considered to everyone, reblog peoples works, this post with others add ons and so forth. and if i find anyone talking shit here or at other writers for something they share, you'll be blocked and im probably taking your kneecaps. be fucking nice. we are all struggling here and we need to stick together

happy sharing and commenting 💜💜

There's something special about Moon being the only side of the DCA who has canonically (gameverse) voiced his counterpart's name ("No more Sun", which yes it's not him directly saying Sun's name since it's a figure of speech, but still) whereas Sun - the chatterbox - only refers to Moon via "he" or "other me". Moon, the quiet one who mostly laughs vs Sun who mostly uses words. Sun, who is scared of Moon, never utters his name whereas Moon clearly has no problem with it. Both of them using "we☀️/us🌙" prior to Eclipse. Moon, whose only opinion of Sun we can infer is "the other me trapped me in light so now I trap him in shadow", vs Sun's whole thing which is profoundly more fleshed out.

I don't know man, the "no more Sun" line always did things to me. I remember playing Ruin for the first time and getting this... jarring emotion when I heard Moon saying that. It's such a small line but good god did I latch onto it.
