[pageofheartdj]

After Mikey presented a freshly hatched baby as his son Donnie does all the light tests, calling for Shelldon to go and help him research his new baby cousin “HECK YEAH!”

Leo, pocking the child, “How do we know this alien baby isn’t here to devour our planet and stuff?” as the Krang invasion happened not that long ago.

A baby: *grasps his finger and coos*

Leo a second later ugly crying and squeezing Mikey and baby: WELCOME TO THE FAMILY, LIL’ BUDDY!

Raph who awkwardly was hanging on the side too excided and too anxious eventually drags Donnie in and hugs everyone, carefully.

Mikey: It’s okay, Raphie, you can give us your bear hug.

Raph: But I don’t wanna crush the baby!

Donnie: The baby crashlanded supposedly from space and was fine.

Raph: nOPE!

[alirhi]

FINALLY!

Y'all, I am so happy this story finally got to this point! 😁🥰

Title: Winter's Frost Chapter: 13/? Fandom: MCU Rating: R to be on the safe side Pairing: Loki/Bucky Summary: Loki never told anyone the real reason he became so obsessed with Midgard. Much better to let them think he wanted to hurt his brother than draw their attention to the one thing in the universe that makes the God of Mischief truly vulnerable. WARNINGS: violence, murder, the fun stuff XD Notes: They're back together! ...sorta lol

"I want you to know I was against this." Those were the first words out of Loki's mouth as his brother approached him. Oddly enough, they were the first words out of Thor's mouth, as well, at the same time. They both stopped, stared at each other for a long moment, and then Thor chuckled and Loki shook his head.

"I don't need your help."

"Heimdall thinks you do."

"He underestimates me." Crossing his arms, Loki smirked at his adoptive brother and took a calm, deliberate step back when Thor moved forward. "You all do."

"I'm beginning to learn that," Thor agreed with a wry smile. "When did you learn to cast solid doubles?"

"I've done it before, you just didn't notice." He gestured toward the bunker; it was hidden from view by a hill between the brothers and it, but Loki had scouted the area while he was waiting and knew where it was. "Let's get this over with, shall we?"

His brother was staring at him again. When he huffed and demanded why, the witless wonder had the audacity to ask, "All this over a human?"

He almost marched over to him and put a knife to his throat, but even angry, Loki wasn't stupid. Every once in a while, Thor's one brain cell would fire off with some actual intelligence, and he wouldn't risk being in easy grabbing range if that happened again. Hands shaking from the overwhelming urge to do some serious bodily harm to his idiot brother, he growled, "You nearly gave up your life for a woman you don't even know. I challenge you to find anyone in the cosmos with less right to judge me!"

"I'm not judging, brother." Thor shrugged a little. "I'm confused. Why did you never mention him, in all this time?"

"If I haven't spoken of him to you in nearly seventy years, what in the name of Odin's good eye makes you think I would do so now?" He turned and started marching over the hill, snapping over his shoulder, "If you're going to help, help. Otherwise, stay out of my way. Anything between me and my Sergeant dies today."

"I didn't know you were capable of such devotion to anyone but yourself."

Ugh. He was still talking? "As usual, brother, that's because you don't pay attention."

"To be honest, I always thought you would end up with Sigyn."

He couldn't help smirking a bit at that. "I have. We married in a little grove on Vanaheim five hundred years ago."

"So you're abandoning your wife?!"

"Monogamy isn't the only path, Thor." Loki rolled his eyes, picking up the pace a bit when he noticed his brother getting too close to him. "Sigyn has never been the jealous type." He paused, and added with a slight edge to his voice, "In fact, if I can remain free long enough to ever see her again, I think she and the Sergeant will get on."

Thor paused as well, mercifully remaining just out of easy reach. "Why do you keep calling him that? It's not as though Heimdall hasn't already told me his name."

"Because he's not James," he explained with an annoying crack in his voice. "If I can't get him out of there, he may never be again." And honestly... I love them both.

They resumed walking, and Loki had about half a second to think he might actually have a moment's peace before the massacre ahead... And then Thor opened his mouth again. "So how did attempting to blow up Jotunheim serve-"

"Do you never tire of the sound of you own voice?! I did, a thousand years ago!"

"Tire of my voice, or your own?"

With a growl, he stopped dead and spun to face the idiot, only growing angrier when he saw the irreverent grin on Thor's dopey, bearded face. Once again squashing down the urge to stab or strangle him, Loki snapped, "I'll see you inside. Or not." And then he simply teleported the rest of the way, leaving Thor to run after him or leave; either option suited Loki just fine.

As he was gleefully tearing humans apart in the bunker a few minutes later, he heard pounding on the door and rolled his eyes. So, Thor hadn't left. Well, if he ever got inside, perhaps he could help clean this mess up.

One of the enormous metal doors nearly took him out as it flew across the facility. Hastily jumping back out of the way, he watched it mow down four blindsided HYDRA operatives and blinked. "Well." With his usual cocky smirk, he nodded to Thor. "Nice of you to join the fun."

When there was no response to his taunting, he was a bit disappointed... until he followed his brother's horrified gaze and saw the pods lined up in a semicircle in the next room. "What the...?"

There were six of them, each with a man or woman seemingly unconscious within. Loki paced the room, taking in and quickly dismissing in turn each face; none were the one he was looking for.

He stopped at the fourth chamber and felt his heart shatter as he pressed his hands to the glass. "Sergeant..."

While the others were seated nude in their chambers, Bucky had been frozen standing, still in the outfit Loki had come to think of as his harness and muzzle. It was so clear at a glance, just from how they were treated while frozen, that all the others were there voluntarily, and Bucky was a prisoner.

"That's him?" When Loki nodded, Thor placed a surprisingly gentle hand on his shoulder and urged, "Stand back."

"You can't just break him out!"

Both Gods turned to face the source of this new voice. A trembling, agitated man in a white lab coat who reeked of fresh urine and fear was gesturing wildly. "This equipment is delicate! Without the proper procedures-"

Loki appeared directly in front of him and gripped him by the front of his shirt; he wanted to grip him by the throat, but restrained himself. "Will it harm him?"

"Yes."

He searched the man's eyes for a moment, until he was sure the wet, shivering weasel was telling the truth, and then he shoved him toward the control panel. "Then begin the procedures."

"But-"

"Wake him!" There was something so satisfying about pressing the point of a dagger into the base of someone's spinal column. Loki smiled, looking directly into those wide, terrified brown eyes, and added more pleasantly, with a little extra pressure on the blade, "Please, doctor. And do be a dear and ensure he wakes safely, with no ill effects, won't you?"

"Y-Yes... Of course."

"You're a monster, brother." Despite his harsh words, there was nothing but amusement in Thor's tone, and his expression when Loki glanced at him. "He's already soiled himself."

Loki shrugged, still smiling pleasantly at his hostage as the man's hands flew over the controls. "Fear can be quite a powerful motivator. Wouldn't you say, doctor?"

"Y-y-yes, sir." With a desperate glance at him, and then at the pod, he told the brothers, "I-it will take a few minutes. When the glass lifts, be ready to catch him."

"Thor."

"See?" With a grin, he turned toward the frozen assassin, waiting. "You did need my help!"

"He's only human; I can lift him easily."

"Yes, but you've got the other one to babysit."

He glanced at the trembling scientist and nodded somewhat absently. That was true; inconvenient, but true. Thor would never have the stomach to do what must be done next, so he'd have to be the one to catch Bucky. As the glass began to lift, Loki asked, "Once he's out, is there anything else that needs to be done?"

"Th-the machine-"

"Not to control him!" Watching the man flinch and cower, he sighed and lowered his voice. "For his health, sir. Are there any ill effects on his wellbeing from that chamber?"

"Not that we've noticed."

Not that you care about, Loki corrected silently, rage boiling over again. "Good." If there were any ill effects, he would simply have to deal with them the best he could when they arose. Bucky was in Thor's arms now; with no further use for him, Loki drove his dagger through the doctor's spine, angling up to get as many organs as he could in one go, as well.

"Loki!"

"If you knew what I know," he told his angry brother calmly as he removed the knife, made it disappear, and dropped the body, "you'd hardly mourn him. Any of them." He marched over to where Thor was laying Bucky across a table, desperate to be near his love even if he wasn't awake yet. "And I did warn you."

"You truly believe there's no chance there's a single innocent soul in this building?"

With an icy look that made the other man shiver, Loki growled, "The only innocent in HYDRA is lying before you, brother. The rest are monsters, and every last one is marked for death."

[Translation] Machine Elements - Cast Presentation: Growth

Have you ever read something so wonderful that you cried?? That’s how I felt when I was reading the Growth profiles XD I hope that everyone feels the greatness that is behind their lore from my translations ^^

※ Please don’t re-post any of these translations without permission. Please just like/reblog them instead.

Under the cut, enjoy~!

ETO KOKI

“Before everything gets buried by the sand… I don’t want to give up on the possibilities!”

PROFILE:

NAME: Eto Koki

GUILD: Growth (※Guildmaster)

BASE: Greenery Valley

☐ Beyond the desert lies a green valley at the end of the Eastern Continent. He is the only son of the Chief who leads the villagers. The Chief’s clan is originally a direct descendant of an old royal family that has since collapsed during ancient times. The villagers are all descendants of the old clan in one way or another. As proof of the royal bloodline, all the members of the Chief’s direct family have wonderful blond hair.

☐ The Chief’s family has, for generations, traveled around the world together with their trusted friends once they have come of age. The final goal of this excursion was to earn the title of [Craftsman] in order to preserve the Guild’s qualifications. However, there is also the implication that it is done in order to broaden the knowledge they have.

☐ Koki was also supposed to go on this journey but, in order to protect the valley that’s rapidly being eroded by the desert, he added [the Investigation of the Ruins] to their original journey’s purposes. Together with his guild members, Kensuke, Ryota, and Mamoru, the three of them form the Archaeological Research Team.

COMMENT:

To those who are meeting us for the first time and to those who are not, how do you do?

I’m Growth’s Eto Koki. In this time’s stage play, Growth goes out on a grand journey that will move the world. Completely different from the place where we’re living, there are deserts and canyons, valleys, and savannas, big cities and even small mountain villages… We will visit various places, go to different ruins, and meet new people. “Journey” is the theme of Growth’s music. Being able to reach undiscovered places, learn new things, and grow will be a part of what we’ll aim for in our real lives as well.

Now then, shall we go on this grand adventure together?

YAEGASHI KENSUKE

“It’s because things can get unpredictable that makes it fun, right? ♪”

PROFILE:

NAME: Yaegashi Kensuke

GUILD: Growth

BASE: Greenery Valley

☐ He is from the family of the once renowned (royal) elite guards. He has great physical skills, perfecting his martial arts whenever he has the chance. He’s the one to rely on the most when things get rough.

☐ He loves taking afternoon naps so it seems like he has a lot of favorite places to nap in around the Ruins. Though, the only people who know of all of those places are the Growth members.

☐ Since he can be a little sketchy sometimes, he is able to face anything. Normally, he faces them with a smile and he doesn’t falter in the face of adversity. One could say that, among Growth members, he is the one with the strongest mental fortitude.

☐ When he went to the Commercial City of Seiryuu, the Blue Dragon, he met SolidS’ Dai. Little did they expect that this meeting would hold more meaning in the future.

COMMENT:

Good afternoon~! I’m Growth’s Yaegashi Kensuke!

When the rehearsal’s schedule was decided, my first reaction was “Oh! It’s here, it’s here, it’s here finally!!” As a guy, the scenes where we’re moving around a lot really made me feel excited (laughs)! The training room was full of guys so, in a good way, I felt so much at ease. But, instead of just enjoying it, I never hesitated to ask for advice at places I felt like I needed to work on. Even the director said that we’re moving along well! (I’m so grateful!)

Dreams and hopes are woven together in a lot of ways so please, do come and see it!

SAKURABA RYOTA

“My calculations are perfect, got it?”

PROFILE:

NAME: Sakuraba Ryota

GUILD: Growth

BASE: Greenery Valley

☐ A young man who is a family member of the once Prime Minister to the royal family. His temperament is one inherited from his blood-line. Being a part of the Chief’s clan… He won’t forgive anyone who goes against Koki.  On the other hand, he possesses a hard-to-grasp sensitivity, and shows an awkward kindness a lot of times. He is impartial in a lot of ways; being harsh to himself as harsh as he is to other people.

☐ He is very knowledgeable and diligent. Since they come from an old royal family, he is especially interested in the planet’s history. His deepest desire is to be able to unfold the mysteries of human history.

☐ He loves art and music and so, the place he admires so is the Art City of Rikugo, the Cosmos. It is not something he wishes to mention himself but, he thinks deep inside that if they could visit it while on their journey, it would be very wonderful.  By the way, the members know of his wish and so they’ve written [The place he really wants to go to] in their journey’s destinations.

COMMENT:

Good afternoon. I’m Growth’s Sakuraba Ryota.

This time, Growth will be going on a journey that triggers an event that will change the world drastically. From there, we will be stepping on the mysteries history… Or, that’s how we want to move the audience.

I am still surprised every single time but, I will do my best to continue on this journey while my heart dances with excitement.

I was excited to work with all the units and I tried my best to communicate with all of them. There are also mysterious people and topics going on there. I felt like there were a lot of great discoveries, too (laughs).

FUJIMURA MAMORU

“Yes, you’re right, Kou-kun. I’ll… do my best, too!”

PROFILE:

NAME: Fujimura Mamoru

GUILD: Growth

BASE: Greenery Valley

☐ A young man who was raised in Greenery Valley. His real birthplace is actually the Art City of Rikugo.  When his peddler parents left the city and were headed to Greenery Valley, they got caught in a huge landslide and couldn’t move anymore. The young man forced himself to go to the Valley and managed to live there.

☐ Being unfamiliar with the village, he was taken under the care of the Chief. Since then, he has since felt a sense of obligation towards the Chief’s family.

☐ Because of that, he was raised together with the Chief’s only son, Koki. Since Koki is only a few years younger than he is, he adores and treats him like a younger brother. (Though, there are rumors that it is actually Mamoru who is being taken care of by Koki.)

☐ He possesses a mysterious instinct that helps guide the others to the whereabouts of a certain ruin. He unexpectedly opened a door in a strange ruin that released the [SPIRITS]. He was also the perpetrator of accidentally making them re-surface. “I’m so sorry!!”

COMMENT:

I’m Fujimura Mamoru who’s so relieved that he still has work this time~♪

… Wait, I feel like there are people who already don’t know what this joke is about? (bitter smile)

But, being able to say that means that I’m doing well with having continued work.

At least let me say my gratitude, yeah! I’m Fujimura Mamoru who was a former NEET before our unit debuted!

The fact that I can be standing on stage while basking in the spotlight means that I didn’t throw my life away, right~?

… Wait, this is getting off-topic (laughs).

This time, I play a member of Growth who lives not in the Valley of the Wind this time but… in a valley surrounded by greenery.

I leave the Eastern Continent together with my fellow members Kou-kun, Ken-kun, and Ryo-kun and we go on a wonderful journey!

Er… Um, isn’t this a fitting song for Growth?! And so, please don’t hesitate to listen to Growth’s songs after leaving the theater so your memories stay fresh.

――― We passed a long and distant time. Continuing to receive love from people and giving love back to everything.

 cosmos: what's one thing you wish you could say to someone you are no longer friends with?                  Whew. Way to hurt me right off the bat. xD Ummm...Thanks for helping me see that I'm worth more and deserve to be treated better as a person.

galaxies: what are three things you want to do before you die?                Well...There are three places I would LOVE to visit. Japan, Italy, and Ireland!

waxing: what is your proudest accomplishment?                 Ugh. This might sound cheesy, but it's true. Raising my little sister. I was around her more than anyone and I really did help raise her. I'm so proud of the young woman she is becoming. She sees me as her hero/mom. I can't think of anything greater than that until I have kids of my own.

waning: what is your biggest regret?                 Currently, it's not talking to and telling my Grandpa Doug I love him before he very unexpectedly passed away. He was my step grandpa, my grandma married younger than her. He was only 42. I do think I may have another big regret coming, but I'm trying to avoid that.

full moon: what type of person do you hope to be?                 Hm. You know...I've thought about this a lot...and the only answer I can come up with...is that I want to be happy, kind, understanding, and someone that can help others.

contemplation: if you could wake up one morning and everything in your life was perfect, what would that look like?               Haha. I would have a harem of men! All the guys that I like including anime guys (I'm talking to you Zero!)! :D There would be world peace, no hunger, and diseases would be cured!

night light: who/what makes you feel safe?               My boyfriend makes me feel safe. My bed makes me feel safe. My dog makes me feel safe. Kavan makes me feel safe and chill as fuck! @bite-x-the-x-bullet

ponder: what do you want to do with your life?

                I don’t really know. With my disability, certain thing limit me. Really I just want to be happy and have a family of my own.          

sunset: who is someone you thought would be in your life forever, but you no longer talk to?

                  Ugh....do I have to say this one? Seriously, this whole thing put me in a mental institution. NOT good, BYE Juan Carlos Lopez.

midnight: are you a different person late at night than in the early morning?

                 Ummm...I dunno. You’d have to ask my sister or boyfriend. 

candle light: are you an indecisive person?

                   I....I can be very indecisive at times. xD

reflection: have you ever changed something you liked about yourself to satisfy someone else?

                  Probably? I honestly can’t think of anything at the moment, but I was a high school girl once...so pretty sure I have.

sweet dreams: are you happy?

                    Currently? At the moment, yes I am very happy. But in life, I’m not quite happy with where I am at the moment. I’m working on it though!

nightmare: what are you most afraid of?

                     I have A LOT of fears...but I guess...doing things or not doing things...and regretting it later...missing a chance on love or something. Losing a loved one. Things like that.

constellations: who is someone you could talk to for hours and never stop?

                       @the-tender-princess @bite-x-the-x-bullet my sister, and my boyfriend

reminder: who is someone you will never forget?

                     There are too many people to name here!!! Seriously, online and in person...I’ve met some really fucking amazing people!!! <3

11-11: what's something you want, but feel like you will never have?

                  @the-tender-princess probably knows. But...I don’t even want to say it. That would make it real and more difficult. Ohhh! What about....$999,999,999,999,999? That’s a good one. xD

shooting star: who is someone you trust to help you make the right decisions?

                   Me, myself, and I, that’s all I got! In the end it’s what I found out. And it ain’t no need to cry I took a vow that from now on I’mma be my own best friend. xD I hope someone gets this.

earth: where do you feel most at home?

                    My bed! The library! Cuddling with someone I care about! A flower garden or small stream! <3

soothe: what's one thing that always makes you feel better when you're upset?

                    :D Haha. Why should I tell you? Those that know me already know how to cheer me up. 

slumber: what's one thing that helps you fall asleep when it feels impossible?

                          Lavender!!! Lots and lots of lavender essential oil! Especially on my feet, wrists, behind my ears and my forehead. That and some lullaby music.

@blonde-aristocrat @zero-e @zerolover66 @the-tender-princess @bite-x-the-x-bullet

I doubt anyone else will do this. xD But we shall see.
