NERO COUNT YOUR DAYS. /j /lh

[sixsixtwenty]

All might x Male reader Headcanons <3

(Art belongs to oneul_haru !)

Summary: You and All might/Toshinori met at UA and became friends at first and later became Lovers!~ (Gay hehe) you possess some kind of Anti-Aging Quirk wich where your physical appearance stops aging at 20.

Beginning UA

-You two Instantly became best buddies after you guys first talked to each other during class (you're desk neighbors!)

-When it was Lunch he always waited at your desk until you're finished with whatever you're doing so you two could go get lunch in the cafeteria!

-He always sits next to you At lunch and even insists of holding your tray for you like a sweetheart. but we're gonna forget that one time he dropped both trays on the ground and caused a scene on accident.

-During Hero training you sometimes tend to watch him while he poofs up into his muscular form clearly staring everywhere but he pretends like he doesn't see you doing it

-Innerly he's secretly a blushing mess when he catches you and gets random caughing fits ;P

-One time during Valentine's and went to your lockers you noticed a bunch of love letters in your locker and it seems to be all from the same person. (Toshinori is the culprit as expected)

-GYM BUDDIES~

-After his first encounter with All for one he's been on edge ever since, he thought he might lose you and he didn't want that. so he swore to always protect you.

Current time (after hsi retirement)

-You two are still quite close and the media has caught up to you two being best friends and usually bombard you two with questions.

-Toshinori can't help but always look at you when you're near. he always thinks to himself how beautiful you still are and how he's looking so old and frale now.

-While he's Retired you are still doing pro hero work saving other people and being a star in his eyes.

-One Night after a hot shower you had a call from Toshi. needless to say that call went on for hours through the night with Him expressing his secret love and admiration for you.

-if you reciprocated his feelings he'd be over the moon and probably kicking his scrawny legs while he's sitting/standing/laying down.

-At first he's awkward suddenly being in a relationship with you. not because he's uncomfortable or something it's because he never imagined he could score you.

-I believe you'd be the first to do moves like nipping at his cheek or wrapping an arm around his and giving him little nicknames like "All mine" "Blondie" "little bird"

-He loves them all but he gets extremely flustered.

-it would take a little bit for him to warm up to the relationship but once he does he is such a loverboy, it almost makes you remember his old self in UA.

-He showers you with little handmade gifts, Swarms you in kisses and hugs, Cuddles with you at night and always sends you those good morning and goodnight gifs.

TEAM RWBY IDEAS

some ideas i have for my rewritten version of RWBY MAIDENS Maidens can only control environments and the weather. Also they can change their surroundings, from a high tech hallway to a red maple forest (like an illusion). (so no sword making or whatever just purely environmental) - team rwby becoming the Maidens a. Ruby becomes the Spring maiden (can control flora and wind) b. Weiss becomes the Winter maiden (can create snow storms and ice powers) c. Blake becomes the Fall maiden (tornados and clouds/rain) d. Yang becomes the Summer maiden (heatwaves and thunderstorms) Maidens can used their combined powers to make combos, Fall and Winter making it hail or Fall and Summer making a dessert storm. YANG Technically she shouldve graduated at this point, however she chooses not to, after finding out that Oz invited Ruby (15) to train at Beacon Academy, she managed to convince Oz to let her redo her senior year at the academy to support Ruby. JAUNE the Jaune we know will be put in the bully team from the 1st vol, my version would be more of an androgynous-femme presenting guy BLAKE & RUBY they can make their own little book club :) BLAKE & WEISS I think Blake would stand up for Weiss (and the other way around), especially if Jacques would come to visit Beacon, after finding out that Weiss went to Beacon instead of Atlas Academy. Before Jacques would be able to hit Weiss, Blake would step in and put him in hsi place. BEACON, HAVEN, SHADE & ATLAS ACADEMY DRESS CODE Most strict in dress (1 being most strict to 4 least strict about it/only cares about results) 1. Atlas (has to wear assigned uniform, miss a tie or want to wear pants instead of a skirt? get expelled scrub (also the most discriminatory school)) 2. Shade 3. Haven 4. Beacon (''male student wears a skirt? ok and?'') Beacon Academy ''Dress Code'' Honestly they dont care if you bribe a fashion student or get a tailor to make a longer skirt or flared pants, as long that it has the Beacon Academy Pattern™️ and ''wearing'' the tie, anything goes

ADAM (vs YANG & BLAKE) Making him more obsessive and weird by wearing Blake's tail (which he cut of before she escaped) as a belt. Also making him more Bull than original, because to this day i still dont see what makes him a Faunus. Like the black colored horns are cute but those can be easily mistaken for colored hair. Fall of Beacon (Adam vs Yang & Blake Round 1) Same story but instead of Yang immediately being defeated after getting her arm cut off, she powers through and uses her firey semblance the stop the bleeding in her arm, while Blake keeps up the good fight. After the bleeding stops Yang steps back into the ring to give Adam a burn scar. After losing too much blood Yang caves in while tries to keep her on her feet. Adam also takes Yangs severed arm Comm Tower (Adam vs Yang & Blake Round 2) Adam teases Yang by throwing her severed arm at her, but shrugs it off and tells him he can keep it. QROW & RAVEN Instead of turning into normal looking Ravens/Crows, they turn into a Nevermore look alike. Originally a power given by Oz, now turned curse by Salem. Both Qrow and Raven now constantly have to fight for control with their Grimm halves. Qrow has partially given up, hence the drinking, so his hands look like bird claws and his body is covered in feathers. Raven keeps her distance to avoid hurting anyone. Unbeknownst to them Salem is using their eyes to spy on Oz. SALEM/White Fang im not sure of this idea but instead of the White Fang (which will be renamed to something else) being a equal rights group, they're followers of Salem, the False Goddess, who gives promises that by serving her, they can save their world/make their world better. And that the Grimm exist to ''get rid of the bad people/sinners'' However i think there is a sort of White Fang group but only in Atlas where the most hate crimes, slavery and discrimination happens. As SDC and other companies in Atlas use Faunus for entertainment (for example Bull fighting for Adam) or for slavery. Yes that would imply that Blake was once a follower of Salem's, but turned around after the train incident. TEAM STRQ this might be the worst idea but hear me out. Team STRQ was a polyamorous quad. (in this version Raven and Qrow are >NOT< related) After Summer's death (at assuming Salem's hand), there was a lot of trust issues after, considering neither Qrow nor Raven told Tai what actually happened, and they slowly drifted apart but they all stayed in touch or checked up on the kids and Tai, Qrow would visit more often, while Raven stayed away for their (R&Y) safety. Raven and Qrow keep butting heads cuz they blame eachother for Summer's death/not saving her, but deep down they still care for eachother. Both Ruby and Yang are their kids (its Remnant they can like make kids in a tube or something). Yang has Qrow's alcohol problems (they sometimes drink together) Ruby has or had Raven's selflessness well thats all the ideas i have, nothing solid, just seeing what sticks to the wall. Admittedly the STRQ one might be a bit out there, considering Qrow and Raven are well known as siblings, and yes its weird as fuck idea to have them being/or were together as a couple. But if you remove the context of them being siblings, and see them having arguments, they argue as if they're a divorced couple. Also Qrow is more of a dad than Tai, protecting the gang when they're going on a trip, when Ruby is 15-16 yrs old (in the actual show). And generally being there for the gang. Even before Vol 4 Tai didnt even visit once, but was able to send Zwei. Qrow stayed the whole time, hanging out with Ruby and Yang but i dont remember in vol 1-3 Ruby or Yang ever calling Tai, y'know their dad? But again these are all ideas, nothing solid, just me rambling about RWBY stuff, uh uhm.... are these good ideas? most likely not feedback and criticism is appreciated :) my team rwby redesign v

You've written about Overhaul in the past. Any tips on writing him accurately?

Overhaul's actually one of the most complex villains in the story that's not a part of the league of villains, however since he's pretty unlikable and has mostly negative and unsavory character traits he's not discussed as often. However when it comes to writing him, there's a lot of rich material to mine here.

So my starting point whenever trying to write a character and make them as in-character as possible, is to figure out what the author intended for them in story. What role are they supposed to play? What function do they serve? In my opinion, Chisaki was an attempt by Horikoshi to twist a lot of traditional "good guy" traits into a villainous character that the audience would despise.

One of my biggest ways of doing this is to compare them to other characters, especially haracters who aren't given as much screentime because there are lots of cogs in a story and often the purpose of one character is to highlight a personality trait in another character because they share it.

Now I'm going to explain Chisaki's characterization by comparing them to another character, but here's the curveball here: I'm not going to use Shigaraki. Because I can explain it real quick with Shigaraki, the purpose of Chisaki is to show how Shigaraki's leadership differs from Chisaki because Shigaraki sees his allies as more than just pawns to be utilized. However, to come to understand why Chisaki wholeheartedly believes that everyone exists to be used thoroughly to further his own ends, we're going to look at a different character.

Hawks and Chisaki are both bird-themed. They are both orphans who were taken in by an organization at a young age, Chisaki by the Yakuza and Hawks by the hero commission. They are both also extremely fanatically loyal to that organization and do everything possible to ensure that organizations survival, in part because they feel they have to repay being taken in.

They are both characters who were introduced to the league of villains, trusted by Twice, only to turn around and kill a member of the league. For Hawks it was literally Twice himself he killed. They were also initially presented as cooperating with the league, but when they reveal their true colors it shows how they view people in stark contrast to how the league views and treats it's own members. Which like, Hawks does not come out looking pretty in the comparison.

Hawks doesn't actively abuse children so he has that over overhaul, but he does drag them onto battlefields that are basically an active warzone where the villains are fighting to kill. Which means that much like Overhaul, he tends to treat children the way he was treated: Ie, weaponizing them.

If you are familiar with Hawks mindset, "I am a pawn, so therefore everyone else is a pawn that I can maneuver around to obtain my objective" then it's easy to extrapolate the same onto Chisaki. Hawks talks about dirtying his hands, Chisaki is literally a germaphobe who has panic attacks if he gets blood on his hands (I'm exaggerating only slightly).

Chisaki is introduced with a deep psychological need to stay clean and avoid everything he considers filth, dirty, or diseased a rampant paranoia of his which spreads to his hatred of quirks. We never get the reason why Chisaki hates quirks, besides the fact that the advent of heroes threatened his home in the Yakuza, but if we're going to extrapolate here it's probably due to the grotesque nature of his own quirk. He literally targets Eri because their quirks are similiar and he finds hers to be incredibly disgusting, and justifies his abuse of her with that logic.

My pet theory is that he was either abandoned by his parents because of hsi quirk, or that he was taken in by AFO at some point and deliberately targeted by his quirk like Toya was (people have pointed out that the wallpaper here and the children playing int he background resemble the house that Toya was taken to).

So, what we get here is Chisaki hates quirks, and he likely hates his own quirk possibly because of how he was treated in childhood because of it. He was definitely exploited by the same man who took him in due to that quirk, considering the fact he's a yakuza enforcer and has probably been committing violent crime since childhood. Once again, a Hawks trait, to be born with a prodigious quirk and yet find that quirk incredibly filthy.

Hawks and Chisaki are a study in how characters can be painted to have "good guy" and "bad guy" traits, when really they're only being painted that way because of circumstances or surroudnings. Hawks in a lot of ways acts the same as Chisaki, he just happens to be manipulating people for the heroes, not to restore the Yakuza. Chisaki values no one, everyone including his childhood friend, the people he takes in off the streets, are pawns to be utilized by the best of their aiblity. He even tries to teach Shigaraki to play Shogi (Shigaraki not knowing how to play probably signifying how much he views people differently).

So, Chisaki's willing to utilize everyone around him in service of a goal, the worth they have is to how he can use them to benefit his larger goal in mind and he's got no qualms about it.

Villainous trait, villainous trait, you say but Hawks does the same thing basically maneuvering everyone on the battlefield in the first and second wars the way Chisaki does, he just does it for an entirely different goal. He's even willing to personally betray and mutilate someone who trusted him in order to achieve that goal. Chisaki's point of no return is him completely massacring Nemoto in order to fuse with him when the tables started to turn against him in his fight against the hero. Hawks stabs Twice in the back in order to prevent him from using his quirk to stop the raid. In both cases it's a personal betrayal of someone who was good to them and trusted them.

You could say Hawks did it for the greater good, but for CHisaki who only knows his Yakzua way of life he's doing it for the survival of the only life he knows. Which is why I say they're so similiar, Hawks isn't really protecting innocent people, he's protecting his role in the hero commission. He takes what he was raised to do to the extreme.

Which is another central character trait they share, Chisaki's biggest defect is that he never, ever gives up on anything ever. A traditionally heroic trait especially in the shonen manga where the character never gives up ever, but his determination is twisted into something hideous because he has no qualms about making sacrifices to get what he wants.

Since childhood Chisaki has done absolutely everything to protect the family's dignity, to the point where it was disturbing. He never changes his mind, never backs down, even when the man he's trying to repay goes against him, but it comes from the same source as Hawks.

He believes he owes the person who took him in, and does everything he does in service of that debt.

So the last part is Chisaki's germophobia himself. Now Chisaki is a man completely divorced from his own sense of guilt who doesn't really hesitate before making heinous actions, but I wouldn't say he feels nothing,the man's clearly not mentally well. If anything I'd say his own germophobia is a metaphor for the guilt and self-loathing he feels and chooses to ignore.

He usually has breakdowns shortly after using his quirk as well. He'll absolutely brutalize people and then have a breakdown about the blood that they've gotten on him. Which suggests he you know, probably does not enjoy bloodshed in any real way. You could even compare it to Shigaraki's statement that he always feels like there's a constant sickness no matter what he destroys, which is likely his repressed guilt that AFO played off as some kind of urge to destroy, or the way Shigarki carries his hands of his family on him so he'll never forget his own self-disgust at murdering them.

Chisaki is living completely divorced from his own sense of guilt, until he's not. Once you remove him from his position of power, when he's away from the mission and forced to sit in his prison cell in tartarus he's reduced to a shambling mess that just constantly apologizes over and over to his boss and begs for the chance to see him again.

Which means that Chisaki represses all of his emotions to perform a task, and when he si not performing a task or functioning in a role he falls to pieces, because he doesn't have any sort of life except for serving in the yakuza. He's even referred to as a "gangster without a heart" because he literally has nothing else and no identity.

Chisaki's gotta be a gangster and he'll even throw a coup and put his boss in a coma for fear of losing that place in the world, because what else is there for him?

He even hates being called by his real name, much like Hawks, so his central issue is really a lack of identity because he was raised in a fishbowl with no other place to belong in the real world. Except we saw Chisaki when he was taken out of his fishbowl, and all he did was flop around like a magikarp.

As for general guidelines on his voice:

The germaphobia is a constant thing with him. Don't put your shoes in my table. Don't breathe in my direction. Hey stop bleeding on me your blood is filthy.

He talks down to people in general. He's extremely condescending with Shigaraki right off the bat, and states to his face that the only worth that Shigaraki and the League will ever have is pawns to be used as a part of his plan.

He flips between being detached, and extreme anger. Basically he's able to act cold and detached when things are going his way, and when people resist his plans or manipulations he then switches to browbeating, bullying or just otherwise lashing out in anger. If the square peg won't fit in the round hole, then just hit it harder until it does. He's cold and calculating until his calculations fail then he just brute forces it.

He's generally pretty good at negging people, he's got Eri convinced that her quirk is disgusting and she's the source of the misfortune around her. He's also got a bunch of street rats incredibly loyal to him by convincing them they can literally do no better in life than being used as a part of his plan.

He also has a softer and more polite side that only comes out in front of the boss. This is his childish side too. When he's fighting Deku and has basically lost, he flashes back to his boss patting him on the head and thanking him for protecting the family's honor. He literally just craves validation from the closest thing he has to a father figure. He'll go to any lengths to get it.

In general Chisaki should be disturbingly inhuman too, not just in his actions, but in his rationale and how far he can go and how little he considers other people in the equation. Even his own childhood friend and fellow yakuza finds him to be offputting. His boss asks him point blank, "What are humans to you?"

Basically, he's creepy, weird, anti-social, uses everyone around him, and is also completely divorced from his own feelings and sense of guilt which lets him run roughshod over other people's feelings.

So, y'know. Hawks.

Except Hawks puts on a charming and likable personality, whereas Chisaki's personality is having no personality.

Barney Peanuts/Coffee Bean

30 days minific challenge 3️⃣0️⃣

here :3

Day one- realizing they’re in love

- Bean POV-

I grinned, putting an arm around Barney  Peanuts. He looked at me and laughed, ruffling my hair. I grinned, punching his shoulder playfully. He let out a ‘oof’ and stumbled dramatically, grinning. I laughed as i watched him turn a cartwheel happily. He was always bouncing around. It was probably why we got along so well. I was high-strung and energetic. He was mostly the same. I grinned and ran to catch up with him. He ruffled my hair as we walked and I grinned wider.

“Hey Bean did i tell ya about Mikey?” He asked me. I shook my head. He started to tell me about one of the members from the circus. I was listening to him at first, but then I saw some crows. I watched them as Peanuts tossed a peanut he produced from hsi pockeys to them. 

“Thats kind…” I trailed off as the crows startled and flew off. I got caught up in watching them before Peanuts shook my shoulder.

“Did you get distracted by a flock of birds, Bean?” he laughed, grinning. I loved his smile, when it was genuine it practically lit up his whole face. I blinked, grinning back, laughing slightly at the odd detour of my thoughts.

“Yes-“ I grinned. We arrived back at the lodge and Peanuts gave me a friendly hug and went to go play cards. Unsurprisingly, i didn’t have the patience for cards, so i laid ob my bunk and rolled my marbles around. I looked over at Peanuts. I felt myself smile as i saw him. His tongue protruded slightly from the corner of his mouth as he thought. He eventually gave up and laid his cards down, laughing. I loved his laugh. He laughed a lot, he was a happy person. When he laughed he tended to smile, which as i mentioned, lit up his entire face. It was really pretty. I looked at him more carefully. His eyes weren’t exactly anything special, just a light brown color. I smiled slightly, I loved the way his eyes seemed to dance when he was laughing or excited. I laid back on my bed, still watching him. My eyes flicked over to Mike and Jojo. The latter was sitting in Mike’s lap, reading a book. Mike was petting his hair and talking to Ike. I smiled slightly. I kinda wanted Peanuts to hold me. I shrugged it off, normal friend feelings. It was probably normal to wonder about hoe your best friend would react to you kissing them. normal emotions.

Well then my brain decided to bring up something Blink had said to Skittery awhile ago

“Y’know i never realized i was actually in love with Mush until i realized i kinda wanted him to kiss me” he’d said. I sat up and blinked. I looked at Peanuts, who was laughing. holy shit his smile. I flopped back down

oh fuck

Im in love

with my best friend 

well f u c k.

this was gonna make life interesting.

Day 2 - first kiss

- Bean-

I hummed as I settled into Peanuts lap, he had my hand in his. I hummed happily as he squeezed my hand. I poked his cheek affectionately and he laughed, grinning.

“Hiiii” I grinned. He laughed 

“Hi Bean” He replied happily, playing with my fingers. I grinned at him. We were sitting on his bunk. It was chaotic as usual, the littles stickfighting and a few rowdy games of cards or craps. Poor Specs was trying to read his book with Romeo crawling all over him. Blink had settled himself in Mush’s lap as the latter was playing a game of poker with Race, Henry, and Ike. Jack was sitting on his bunk with Davey. Davey had his head in Jack’s lap. I looked over at Peanuts. He was occupying himself with running his hands through my hair, which always tended to fluff when it was cold out. I watched him as he grinned and patted my hair

“Fluffy” He grinned, giving me a quick squeeze. I laughed and wiggled happily. I was wiggling my foot as I was comfy and didnt feel like moving, but i had too much energy to just lay still. I hummed excitedly. I liked being held.Peanuts and I had been dating for about a month now. We mostly just cuddled. Holy crap I wanted to kiss him so so bad. He was absolutely gorgeous. I bit my lip and sat up. He huffed as I left his lap. I laughed and nuzzled him.

“Im gonna get a drink” I explained. He hummed, holding out his arms for a hug. I bit my tongue and kissed him lightly on the lips. I felt my face heat up. I glanced at him. He was hiding his face in his hands. Through the cracks in his fingers i could see he was blushing furiously. I knew I was too.

“You uh- You two okay-?” Bumlets asked from the bunk next to us. He had Skittery, who was out cold,  curled up next to him under a blanket. I nodded

“mHm-” I felt myself redden more. Peanuts made a squeak sound and nodded, still keeping his face hidden. Bumlets chuckled softly

“I think you broke Barney” He said to me, nodding to him. I nodded, still bright red.  Bumlets returned to his book, running a hand through Skittery’s hair. I turned back to my boyfriend, who was impossibly red. I tapped his shoulder and he replied with a grunt/whine

“was that okay Barn?” I Asked him nervously. He nodded

“Yes!” he practically half-shouted. I grinned and tipped his beet red face up to look at me. I kissed him gently and he squeaked, pulling me down onto the bunk, and in turn, him. I laughed as he pulled me up for another kiss, much longer this time.  I grinned and grabbed his face between my hands. He was still bright red but smiling

“aww!” I giggled, kissing him again. I grinned and squished his cheeks. He laughed

“Shhh you’re just like so… so cute and kissable and come hereeee!” I grinned, pulling him down to kiss him more. I covered his face in kisses until he was flusted bright red and practically shaking from embarrassment. I grinned and pulled him down, wrapping my arms around him

“Beaaannnn” he whined, flushing redder. I giggled as he hid his face in my chest

“Youre too damn cute” I grinned, kissing his hair. He hummed and snuggled against me.

Day 3 - moving

 - BEan POV-

I ran a hand through my hair, glancing around for my boyfriend. The apartment wasn’t anything big, just a livingroom/kitchen, and a bedroom with a small bathroom attached to it. Seeing as it was just the two of us, it worked pretty well.

We’d been bringing up our stuff and the apartment was filled with boxes. I blinked and looked around for Peanuts. He wasn’t anywhere in sight. I frowned and poked my hesd into the bedroom. He wasn’t in there and the bathroom door was wide open 

“Peanuts?” I called,looking around the room again. There wasn’t a response. I felt myself start to panic slightly before I heard a soft snore. I blinked and looked around. He wasn’t on the couch, or the table or counter. I walked until i almost burst out laughing. There, curled up in a cardboard box meant for the blankets. He was, in fact, curled up under a blanket. I snorted and shook him awake. He sat up and grinned sleepily at me

“hiiiii” he grinned, wrapping the blanket around himself. I laughed

“do you need to take a break?” I laughed. He nodded and yawned. I pulled him up and led my sleepy boyfriend to the bedroom. I laughed as he flopped down onto the bed.

“comfy?” I laughed, watching him burrow under the slightly outrageous amount of blankets on our bed. He huffed and shook his head

“no :( I want my beanyyy” he huffed, making grabby hands at me. I laughed and laid down next to him as he snuggled against me

“better?”

“much!” he hummed happily.

Day 4 - meeting the family

- Peanuts-

Bean laughed and I straightened his shirt.  He nervously blushed and bounced on his toes.

“Peanutss—“ He whined nervously, looking in the car mirror and fixing his hair for the hundreth time.  I chuckled and took his hand, leading him to the front door. I knocked and my dad opened the door. I smiled as my dad pulled me into a big hug. I laughed as i was pulled into the house, I was still holding Bean’s hand. My mom came over and did the usual mother checkover. She investigated my face, asked if i was eating and drinking water, the ususal. I laughed and nodded. 

“Where’s everyone?” I asked.

“Living room” My dad replied. I squeezed Bean’s hand reassuringly

“they’re gonna love ya” I grinned, kissing his temple before pulling him into the living room. My two older sisters, Maddie and Tess. Maddie glanced at us and waved before returning to her phone. My little brothers, Braydon and Jessie, true to form, had squeezed together in a chair, cackling over a video.

My dad walked in and took a seat on the opposite couch my sisters, and now my mom, were sitting on.

“Hi everyone!” I grinned, Tess got up to give me a hug, and to shoot Bean a mildly threatening look. He squeaked and hit himself behind me slightly. Jessie and Braydon tackled me into a hug and I cackled along with them. 

“So who’s thisss?” Maddie grinned “The famous Angelo we’ve all heard so much about?”  I laughed and nodded, gently tugging Bean out from behind me. He had a death grip on my hand still. He reached up to try to fix a stray hair that didn’t exist. I chuckled softly

“yes, this is my very pretty boyfriend Angelo” I grinned, releasing his hand, which drew a panicked side-eye from him. I put an arm around his waist and let my hand rest at his hip, holding him against me. He smiled weakly at my family

“Hii-“ He said, waving slightly. Braydon waved happily

“Hi Angelo!” he said excitedly. Bean pressed himself to me nervously. I rubbed a small circle on his hip with my thumb

He continued to press himself to me nervously as Jessie waved excitedly 

“Hiii :D” he half-shouted. He’d always been loud. “Im Jessie, thats Braydon, Tess, and Maddie”

Bean nodded as i led him to the couch. I say in between my dad and the nervous ball of energy known as my boyfriend. At this point i noticed the jenga Tess and Jessie were playing

-Bean-

I looked at Peanuts family nervously. His brothers seemed to like me. Braydon had short, dark hair while Jessie had longer blond hair that came down to about his chin. His sister Maddie had curly, dark brown hair that went past her shoulders. His other sister Tess had short, curly blonde hair that was about the length of Peanuts. Peanuts was the spitting image of his father, the same eyes, nose, hell even the same mouth. His mother looked more like Maddie. I blinked as i realized id been asked a question 

“sorry-?” I replied softly

“Do ya wanna play jenga?” Maddie asked. I shrugged and nodded.

The next thing I knew id been sucked into a jenga game that ended up with Tess wrestling Braydon into submission on the floor. I snorted, trying to hold in my laughter as Jessie was practically rolling on the floor laughing.

Thankfully the food was good. I wasn’t a picky eater, bur i wasn’t a fan of trying nee foods. It was just pizza, and we ate in the living room. As we ate his family asked me questions, most of which weren’t too personal, thankfully. 

“So has Peanuts fallen aslep on the table yet?” Tess asked me. I nodded my head and laughed softly. The conversation lasted for a few hours. I smiled genuinely for most of it, his family really was just like him. Eventually it was time to go and Peanuts went to get the car while i waited by the door. the rest of his family was still in a playful argument about Jenga. Tess walked up to me.

“Angelo” she said. I looked at her nervously 

“Yeah-?” I replied. She grabbed my shoulder and pulled me close. I swallowed.

“you hurt my baby brother and Ill fuck you up, understood?” she growled. I nodded. she released me and smiled

“good, Barneys waiting” she said. I called one last goodbye and left, sliding into the passenger seat.

“not so bad?” Peanuts asked. I nodded

“other than Tess, no” I agreed. He laughed 

“she’s just overprotective” He leaned iver to kiss my lips “Im proud of you” he hummed

“thanks Peanuts” I grinned at him “I love you”

“I love you too Bean” he grinned, kissing me again.

“watch the road!” I squealed out. He laughed and i smacked him. He laughed more. I rolled my eyes 

“dumbass”

“your dumbass”

-Day 5- First ‘I love you’

-Bean-

I nervously poked my head into the circus tent, I wanted to see my boyfriend and didn’t have the patience to wait. I looked arounf and spotted Peanuts as he turned a happy cartwheel. I smiled slightly. I slid onto a bench. The tent was empty except for me, Peanuts, and two other men who seemed a few years older than me and Peanuts. Peanuts scrambled up onto the platform where a tightrope started. One of the men was up there, and the other seemed to be checking a net below the tightrope was secure. He tugged on it and called up something i either couldn’t hear or was in a different language. I rested my elbows on my knees as i watched the man up with Peanuts walk out onto the tightrope. backwards. He was facing Peanuts as he walked backwards. I could hear them talking, but they were too far for me to hear. Peanuts nodded and looked over at the benches. He noticed me and waved.

“Hi Bean!” He yelled to me. I waved back. He turned back to the man on the tightrope.

I watched Peanuts listen to the man as he nodded. Peanuts slowly took a step onto the rope and I let out a small squeak. Oh fucking hell he was so high up. I put a hand over my mouth. Oh hell if he fell-. I swallowed hard. Peanuts managed a few steps before he wobbled, causing the other man to wobble as well. I let out a worried squeak. Peanuts somehow managed to regain his balance and slowly continued. The other man backed off onto the platform on the opposite side from where he’d started. Peanuts made it to about halfway before he wobbled to much and fell. I let out another strangled squeak as Peanuts fell onto the net. He laid there a moment before holding up his arm in a thumbs-up. He sat up and rolled out of the net, laughing. I whined, bouncing my knee. I watched as he climbed back up and tried again. He made it to about where he had the first time before he wobbled and pretty much flipped off the tightrope. I let out another whine as he landed in the net again. The three of them laughed and one called

“Let’s wrap it up Ollie” The man called. Peanuts laughed and nodded, hopping the  small wall and walking over to me. I gave him a quick kiss on the lips as i stood up and we walked out of the tent and in the direction of the lodge. I glanced at him, I wanted to make sure he was okay, but i couldn’t exactly check him over in the middle of the street. I looked over at him, linking our pinkies together. He glanced at me and smiled

“You okay Beany?” He asked me. I nodded

“Are you? Those was big falls” I said nervously. He nodded, laughing

“yeah, I fell upwards of-“ He looked down, mumbling under his breath “Dezoito, dezenove, vinte-“ He looked back  at me “twenty times” he laughed. I let out a small squeak and bit my cheek.

“oh-“ I said “are you *sure* you’re okay?” I said nervously. He laughed and nodded

“yeah, i might have a few bruises but I’m okay” He grinned.

———

We arrive back at the lodge and I pushed Peanuts gently onto the bed. He laughed.

“Excited are we?” He grinned. I groaned, sitting on his waist

“Not like that you idiot” I snorted, undoing his shirt. He blinked, looking up at me

“are you sure-? cause this is how it usually goes-“ He laughed, smirking up at me. I whined softly as I saw his chest and stomach. There were light, still forming bruises on him. He looked down at himself

“it happens when I falls” He said, shrugging. I tenderly poked them, concerned. He laughed, wiggling with a small wince

“You sure you’re okay?” I asked, kissing the bruises. He nodded

“Im sure im okay I promise Bean” he said. I whined and continued to kiss the bruises

“Honey” Peanuts said, grabbing my face and making me look at him. I looked at him nervously. He sat up and tugged me so i was next to him. He buttoned his shirt and laid down, pulling me with him. I whined and tried to wiggle away, worried about hurting him. 

“Beanie, Angelo” he murmured, kissing my forehead “I’m okay” He said. I whimpered

“are you sure? are you okay? do you promise?” I said, nuzzling his chest. He nodded

“yes i promise- its just a few bruises Beany, whys ya so worried?” he chuckled.I shrugged, hugging him, mumbling a response. He rubbed my hair

“louder?”

“Cause i loves you” I replied. He froze and looked at me. I peeked up at him, he smiled at me, kissing me.

“I loves you too” he replied. I gawked at him, before burying my face in his chest

“really? you promise??” I said, peeking up at him again. He grinned and nodded

“Really, I promise” He said, kissing my forehead. I squealed happily and snugged into him.

“I love you I love you I love you!!” I said happily, squeezing him. He laughed, squeezing me back 

“I love you too Bean”

-Day 6-Raising a kid/pet

-Bean-

I glanced at Peanuts, who was thoroughly enjoying himself. He grinned at me

“Allie lookit her!” he said happily to me, sticking his tongue out at the baby, who we’d named Avery. She giggled and he looked back at me happily. I rolled my eyes affectionately, grinning back at him and Avery. I laughed as I got out of the car, walking around to the passenger door and opening it.

“may i see our child now?” I teased, grinning. Peanuts stuck out his tongue, causing Avery to giggle happily, making a small ‘ppft’ noise. He grinned at me. I smiled, laughing. He was so happy, it was absolutely adorable. I let him take her out of the car seat and i took her as he got out of the car. I grinned down at Avery

“hi little baby” I hummed, nudging her cheek with my finger. she just made more baby noises as she watched me. I grinned and held her happily. Peanuts wrapped an arm around me and kissed my temple

“You cant have her yet you got her the whole drive home!” I laughed, nuzzling him as we walked. he kissed my temple

“I can carry her if she’s heavy-“

“shes five months old!” I laughed, rolling my eyes. we went inside the apartment building and to the elevator. Avery, thankfully, stayed quiet and cooed happily. She waved her small arms happily, grabbing at my shirt. I cooed softly at her. Peanuts huffed, leaning on me and squishing Avery’s nose lightly. She giggled, smiling. I awwed as we went inside our apartment. We’d moved to a bigger one, but we were still living in New York, so we lived in an apartment. I kicked the door shut gently as Avery squirmed. Peanuts took her from me. I laughed as he held her protectively. 

“someone’s possessive” I chucked. Avery giggled, tugging on Peanuts’ shirt happily. Peanuts stuck out his tongue, which was the funniest thing imaginable to Avery, and nodded

“mine” he hummed, bouncing Avery gently. I laughed and let our jack Russell, titan, out of the kitchen. We’d decided to put up a gate so he didn’t immediately jump us if Avery was being fussy. Titan barked happily, which Avery didn’t seem to appreciate much. she started to whine, using her small ears to cover her tiny ears. i picked up Titsn to reassure him the five month old child wasn’t a threat.

-Timeskip-still Bean-

i hummed as Peanuts kissed behind my ear affectionately. I laughed, turning to face him. He grinned

“dinner’s ready” he hummed, nuzzling into me. I laughed

“thanks honey” I laughed as I went to Avery’s room to get her and her friend Daniel, who was Tommy and Henry’s kid. I knocked on the door and waited a few seconds before opening it. Avery was perched on her desk while Daniel was sprawled on the floor. they looked at me

“dinner’s ready” I said. they both scrambled up and followed me to the table. we all say down and ate comfortably. We all knew each other and it wasn’t uncommon for Daniel to spend the night at our house, or Avery spend the night at Tommy and Henry’s house, the two of them were good friends, and we were good friends with Tommy and Henry. As we ate Avery was unusually quiet. I looked at her, tilting my head

“You okay Ave?” I asked her. She nodded, glancing at Daniel. Daniel continued eating their food, but glanced at Avery as well.

“uh-“ she mumbled. she swallowed at looked up at us

“ImdatingDanielpleasedon’tbemad-“ she said before taking a bite of her noodles. 

“Okay” I replied, knowing Peanuts would take over

“First off im gonna say we’re not mad” he shrugged “and *usually* id go on a rant but i mean it’s Daniel so… nobody get pregnant?” He said. Avery laughed in relief and hugged us both. 

-Day 7-Getting lost somewhere

-Bean-

I hummed, peeking through the darkness to see the path. I didn’t want to run into omens of the scarers. I sort of regretted coming here. I spotted Peanuts.

I grinned, jumping onto Peanuts back. He hollered in surprise but caught me. I attempted to peek up through the corn. He rolled his eyes, flipping me around and dropping me slightly. This resulted on my clinginh to his chest for dear life. I grumbled

“No fairrr”

“stop trying to cheat you butt!” he laughed. I rolled my eyes and pouted as he set me down. he kissed my temple

“cmon Beany its fun!”

“it’s terrifying” I muttered, keeping a tight grip on his hand. “Its dark and we’re lost and there’s someone dressed as a fucking clown!” I said, deciding his hand wasn’t enough and clinging to his arm instead. he snorted and kissed my hair. I shivered, hugging myself momentarily.

“you said you were up for this” he chuckled. i bit his arm lightly and he laughed loudly. I whined

“stawppp theyre gonna hear us!!” I whined, trying to decide between clinging to his arm or wrapping it around me. I decided to cling to his torso and let him wrap his arm around me. He held me against him as we walked. We were just wandering at this point, we were completely and utterly lost in the maze. I wasn’t paying attention when one of the scarers jumped out at us. I shrieked and hid my face in Peanuts, who was shaking with restrained laughter. I shivered from cold and fear. I whined and clung to him. he picked me up again and i whimpered. He was holding me so I was in front of him, hiding my face in his chest. He maneuvered me so he was carrying me bridal style. I whined and tugged on his shirt 

“I know Beany I know” he laughed, kissing my forehead. I clung tightly to him. 

“im cold” I mumbled “and… and a tiny bit scared” Peanuts kissed my hair

“shh, shhh, I know” he murmured soothingly, rubbing my back. I clung to him. 

I grumbled as Peanuts groaned

“we are so fucked. I have no idea where we are”

“I don’ think we’re far” I said, hiding my face in his warmth “i can get up on yoir shoulders and direct?”

“yeah sounds good”

-

After about twenty minutes we were both muddy and cold but we had finally made it back to the car. I slid into the passenger seat, shivering. I shivered, waiting for Peanuts. I looked out the window.

where had he gone?

He popped up suddenly and I screeched. He roared with laughter, sliding into his seat. I whined and covered my face with my hands

“stoppp!” I whined as he turned on the car. He snickered and put the blanket he kept in the backseat over me.

I grumbled and crossed my arms as we drove out. Peanuts leaned over and kissed my temple

“not coming here next year?” He chuckled. I shook my head

“nO!!”

“I love you” He laughed, kissing me again. I pushed his face away

“Road!!” I squealed. He laughed.

“I love you too” I replied “even if you are an ass sometimes” 

Peanuts grinned

“you love my ass and you know it” 

-Day 8-FANCY BALL OR PARTY

-Bean-

I groaned, fixing my tie in the mirror. I bit my tongue as I waited for Peanuts. We had to go to one of his coworkers’ wedding. I wasn’t sure exactly why wed been invited as Peanuts said they weren’t super close. I groaned and knocked on the bedroom door

“C’mon Peanuts!” I said, waiting “We gotts go now!” I called, grabbing the keys

“Two seconds!” he shouted

“Im leaving you here!” I laughed, opening the door. He caught up with me and smacked the back of my head lightly. I groaned and looked over at him.

oh fuck.

he was fucking hot.

so fucking hot.

I didn’t know anyone there, so i mainly stood off to the side, vibrating with my usual energy. I literally could not take my eyes off of Peanuts. I bit the inside of my cheek. 

The suit stuck to him in all the right places. I watched him as he talked, walking around and being social. Oh hell the way his hips moved when he walked. His arms seemed much more muscular than usual. And I don’t even want to start on how good his ass looks. His hips swayed as he talked happily. I felt myself staring at his waist. God he hd a slutty waist. He laughed, grinning. I bit the inside of my cheek as he walked over to me. I raised my eyebrows at him. he grinned at me, wrapping an arm around me. I reddened. 

“you okay?” he asked me. I nodded meekly

“you’re just-“ I coughed “really really hot in that-“ I managed 

“is that why you’re all flustered?”

“y e s” I said, whining slightly “and this is gonna go f o r e v e r and I’m gonna absolutely d i e if i cant fuck you soon” Peanuts laughed, kissing my forehead. 

“we can leave early, sound good darlin?” he chuckled. I nodded, huffing

“You have a really slutty waist yknow” I grumbled. He almost spit out his drink before bursting out laughing.  he snickered and kissed my forehead 

“you’re one to talk” he said happily before bouncing off to talk to people. I groaned and sat in a chair. I watched him for the rest of the night. He dragged me up to dance but i honestly just wanted to go home.

———

We got home and I practically dragged Peanuts into the house. He laughed as I pushed him onto the bed. He cackled

“Love you my horny bastard”

“love you too Peanuts”  i rolled my eyes before continuing my mission.

-Day 9 - READING PARTNER'S DIARY OR LETTER 

- Bean- 

I kicked the dirt aimlessly. Peanuts had been gone with the circus for a few weeks now and i missed him. I huffed as i flopped on my bunk. I whined softly, putting an arm over my eyes. I wanted my boyfriend. I wanted to hug him. I wanted to kiss him. I at least wanted to talk to him. I wanted Peanuts. I sat up with my back against the headboard of my bunk. I pulled my box of belongings out from under the bed, pulling out a letter.

Id found the letter a day ofter Peanuts left, and it was written in his messy scrawl. I opened it and squinted at the words. It took me awhile to read it as I wasn’t exactly great at reading.

Bean,

          Hi baby, how’re you doing? I hope you’re doing okay. You been having okay days? I hope so.

           I know I’m not with you right now, and Im sorry about that. Believe me, I’d rather be with you right now.

           I love you. You’re so pretty baby. You’re absolutely beautiful. I love you so so so so so so so so so so so so so much. 

           Im sorry im not there when you need me, but i want you to know that I love you, okay? I love you no matter what. Don’t forget you’re beautiful and i love you

I love you,

Barney Peanuts 

I whined softly and rested my forehead on my knees in distress. I knew he meant well by the letter, and it helped a small bit, but it didn’t really help at all.

The letter went back in the box and the box went back under my bed. I tugged my hair lightly. I just wanted Peanuts.

I just wanted a hug from him

Was that so much to ask? 

It didn’t even have to be a romantic hug

It could be a normal friendly hug

I just wanted a fucking hug

Just a fucking hug from my boyfriend 

I whined softly and watched the other newsies. 

Most everyone was just trying to cool down. It was brutally hot out. I watched Blink rolling around on his bunk, he never handled the heat well at all. Mush was lying on the floor, facedown. Skittery nudged him with his toe

“mmmphhh! s cool” Mush whined. I bit my lip. I knew the heat was working me up but i was gonna start crying soon. I whined under my breath and went to the bathroom. I got a drink and looked at my face in the mirror. My Face was flushed red and i tugged on my hair.

fucking dammit i just wanted my boyfriend 

I just wanted a hug from him 

I wanted to hear his voice.

I squeezed my eyes shut, I refused to cry. I wasn’t gonna cry. Not here at least 

I just wanted my fucking boyfriend. 

I felt myself shake with a barley restrained sob and i opened my eyes and wiped the tears away. I exhaled.

I just wanted Peanuts.

-Day 10-LAZY MORNINGS

-Bean-

I woke up to the usual feelings. I was warm from all the blankets we had on our bed. and Peanuts was pressed against my chest like usual. I kissed his forehead lightly and he grumbled. He’d always been a surprisingly light sleeper

“mornin Peanuts” I laughed, sitting up

“no” he simply said, reaching up for me. I laughed. We both thankfully had the day off so we had been able to sleep in. I laughed again

“cmon baby its already ten” I put a hand on his chest and shook him gently “time to wake up” He just whined and pulled the blankets over his head. I laughed and rolled my eyes

“no!” he squeaked as i got up. I grinned and pulles the blankets down so i could see his face. He huffed, not happy about being removed from his nest. I kissed his forehead

“im gonna make us breakfast” i hummed, picking up one of his hoodies from the floor. I slipped it on and went to the kitchen.

——

I was surprised that by the time i was done making breakfast Peanuts *still* wasn’t up. I went to investigate. He’d definitely gotten up as he wasn’t in bed, but he was leaning on the sink in the bathroom.

“you okay honey?” I asked him, tilting my head. he shook his head

“s all hurtin” he replied. I realized what he meant. It didn’t happen often, but sometimes he would be incredibly sore from dance. Id mentioned it to Skittery once and he’d saidBumlets was the same way. I hummed sympathetically as i walked over to him

“did you take somethin?” I asked. He nodded slightly and I picked him up. he squealed and i laughed. I set him back on our bed and covered him in a few blankets 

“ill be right back” I hummed. 

I went to the kitchen and got breakfast. I handed Peanuts a plate and i sat cross legged next to him. He’d wiggled into a physically impossible position for most people but seemed comfortable for now. He nibbled on his food for awhile before looking at mine. I rubbed his hair

“m eatin it i promise” I said, taking a bit. he relaxed and ate his food. I put the plates on the dresser/nightstand next to the bed. Peanuts then shifted so he was lying like a normal human being. he tugged on the hoodie i was still wearing. I looked at him and he pouted. I laughed and laid down so i was Holding him gently. he hummed happily. I grinned and kissed his hair

“you wanna watch a movie?” I hummed. he nodded. I turned on a star wars movie, he loved those. He squeaked happily and buried himself into my side. I laughed and pet his hair as we watched the movie.

“thanks Beany” he mumbled against me “an m sorry” he added

“shhh its okay” I reassured him gently, kissing him “I love you so i take care of you” He smiled, nuzzling me

“I love you too!”

about halfway through the movie Peanuts decided he wasn’t getting a proper amount of attention because he shifted so he was all but laying on top of me. I laughed and pet his hair gently. He hummed softly.

i continued to pet his hair absentmindedly as i watched the movie until i heard a soft snore. I grinned as i realized he’d fallen asleep again. I laughed softly. He was burrowed in the blankets and asleep on my chest. He was too cute for this world, I thought happily as i continued to play with his hair.

-Day 11-TRAVELING TOGETHER

-Peanuts-

I grumbled, scrunching my eyes closed further. Someone shook me and I batted my hand in their general direction. They shook me again and I let out a groan, throwing an arm over my eyes.

“Ollie!” My mother laughed, shaking me again. I groaned, moving my arm off my eyes. I looked up at my mom. She was a short woman, I was taller than her, but i had been since I was roughly 13. I was pretty much the spitting image of her, same nose and eyes and mouth. She raised her eyebrows at me. I blinked sleepily

“mmmm?” I yawned, streching. I realized i had Bean asleep on my chest still. Only his messy, dark brown hair peeked out from under his blanket. I grinned sheepishly 

“He got cold” I explained. My mom rolled her eyes but laughed

“its time to get up you two” she chuckled. I nodded and she hummed as she walked away. I twisted to look out the window of the train. After roughly a minute i recognized where we were. We still had an hour until we got to where we had to be. I shook Bean gently

“Honeyyy” I cooed “time to wake upppp”

He grumbled and burrowed into me

“No! sleepy!” he whined. I chuckled and kissed his hair 

“come on baby wake up” I laughed. Bean whined and buried his face into me. I sat up, banging my head on the bunk above us

“Fuuck!” I yelped, rubbing my head. Bean whined and pulled me down, inspecting my head. I laughed as i felt him parting my hair to investigate. I heard Tess cackling with laughter. She landed on the floor with a thud. She straightened up and poked my shoulder. Bean pulled me against him, glaring at Tess. She rolled her eyes 

“whatever lover boys” she laughed, waving before walking out. I looked at Bean

“did someone get possessive?” I chuckled. Bean huffed and squeezed me

“mine” he mumbled. I laughed and pried Bean off me as I stood up. He huffed and stood up. I raised my eyebrows at him.

“shirt” I chuckled. He reddened and picked up his, slipping it on. He made a happy sound before kissing me gently. i grinned and kissed his forehead

“uh- im not s fan of trains-“ He yelped as the train rattled a bit harder, causing him to stumble into me. I grinned

“Its okay- we’re almost in Paris baby”

“good- i swear i can’t walk normally cause of this”

“i didn’t contribute at all?” I murmured. He squealed and hit my shoulder lightly. I burst out laughing

“Love you Jumpin bean”

“Love you too Barn” He huffed.

Day 12 - GIVING GIFTS 

- Bean -

Christmas had never been much at the lodge. A few of us didn’t even celebrate it. Crutchie, Les, Davey were Jewish, and Soot was Muslim. A few of us were atheists and others just didn’t share what they believed in. It didn’t matter, none of us cared much for the holiday whether we believed in it or not. I wriggled, trying to get some feeling back in my feet. It was too damn cold this year. I felt a shiver run through my body, I pulled the blanket tighter around myself. Peanuts sat on the bunk. I squeaked happily and wiggled, grinning. Peanuts chuckled. he kissed my forehead. I realized he had a paper bag in his lap. I cocked my head

“whaddya have there?” I asked, wiggling into a sitting position and resting my chin on his shoulder. he chuckled

“so i know you said you didn’t like christmas” He said, turning to face me. i wiggled out of my blankets. he handed me the bag sheepishly and i bot my lip

“okay-“ I laughed, producing what was a pair of glsves shittily wrapped in newspaper. I handed it to him

“aww” He chuckled. I reddened

“shuddup-“ I mumbled. he laughed

“open yours” he said. I did ashe said and produced one of the jelly-filled pastries i liked. I grinned at him 

“thank you!” I giggled happily, wrapping my arms around him. he grinned, kissing my hair. I happily let him go and looked at him

“do you want some-?” I asked. He shook his head

“Beany I can’t stand jelly” he laughed. I happily started to eat it. 

“open yours” I hummed. he did and squeaked happily when he saw the gloves. they were the type of gloves he used for the circus so he didn’t hurt his hands. Id convinced Buttons to help me sew a pattern of a peanut on the back of each one. I laughed sheepishly

“i know its not exactly pretty” I chuckled, rubbing the back of my neck “but in my defense-“ I was cut off by Peanuts squeezing me into a tight hug

“thank you thank you thank you!” He squealed happily. I hugged him back

“I love you Peanuts” I grinned, kissing him. He made a face 

“you taste like jelly” he grumbled, grinning playfully “I love you too Bean” 

Day 13-GOING ON A WALK OR RUN TOGETHER

-Peanuts POV-

I laughed as Bean bounced ahead, his paper bag slung across his chest. it bounced against his hip as he wheeled to face me. I kept walking until i caught up.

“lets go for a walk!” he said happily, grabbing my hand and pulling me forward. I chuckled

“yeah?”

“yeah!” He grinned, pulling me along. I chuckled. He dragged me along, happily pointing out whatever he deemed interesting 

“thats where Elmer and Mush found me, thats where Mush punched a kid-“ he said, squeezing my hand. I glanced at him 

“Elmer and Mush found you?” I asked. He nodded

“Yeah- Mush didn’t talk though” He said after a moment of thought “his face was all beat up so i dont think it was long after they found Mush.” I nodded. He’d told me about his family. They essentially didn’t have room for him so his mom pretty much jusy abandoned him. He’d said he was pretty sure he was supposed to have gone to the church but he wandered off. I squeezed his hand and he looked at me, grinning widely

“Barn cmon!” he said, tugging my arm. I snorted as we walked through the typical stalls and people that crowded the downtown area. I watched him as he nicked a cinnamon roll off a stand. He pulled me out of the crowded streets and into central park. I gave him a look when he scrambled up into a tree. I followed him and he happily broke the cinnamon roll in half and handed it to me.  I chuckled and took it

“thanks” I laughed, taking a bite. Bean hummed happily as he ate his food.

“You’re gonna get caught one of these days ya know” I laughed, breaking off a small bit and holding it to his mouth. He laughed and took it between his teeth, eating it. I grinned and wrapped an arm around his shoulders

“i know- but its just some bread” he hummed “and he was gonna throw it out anyways- it’s old”

“tastes good to me” I hummed. Bean nodded

“me too”

“did you have fun on our walk?” I laughed. He nodded enthusiastically 

“yes!”

Day 14 -SICKNESS

-Peanuts-

I felt myself being shook awake by Bean. I whimpered and tried to hide under the blanket. It was warm and soft. 

“Barn” Bean said nervously, shaking me again. I forced an eye open to look up at him. His hand was on my chest. I whined softly.

“Barn do you feel okay?” He asked me. I forced myself to nod

“Just tired” I rasped. i knew i shouldn’t have spoke because i saw the look he got when he was going to worry. 

“Barn you look pale” He said worriedly, pressing the back of his hand to my forehead. I weakly swatted at his hand

“Beany-“ I managed “im okay” I coughed. Bean whined and pressed his lips to my forehead. I wiggled weakly

“baby-“ I rasped. Bean shook his head 

“shush!” he said, pressing his fingers to my lips. I rolled my eyes but allowed him to help me into a sitting position. I shivered, it was cold.

-Bean-

I whined softly as i very casually piled all of our blankets onto Peanuts. he snuggled into them. I whined again

“are you feeling okay?” I asked him. he shook his head faintly 

“dizzy” he mumbled. I bit the inside of my cheek and helped him lay back down. I stroked his sweaty hair. He shivered 

“Be-Bean- Angie-,” he shivered, wrapping the blanket tighter around himself “hurty” he whimpered. His British accent was startinf to become prominent. I kissed his forehead. he whimpered and weakly batted my face away

“no! sicky!” he sniffed. i nodded and walked to the bathroom to get him an asprin. I heard a thud and looked back into our bedroom

Peanuts was lying on the floor. He sat up, paled, and flopped back down.

“need to puke?” i asked him and he nodded. After a struggle i picked him up. I wasn’t nearly as strong as he was. I (un)gracefully set him down next to the toilet where he then proceeded to barf out what seemed like all of his intestines he whined and reached for me. I shook my head and managed to get him sitting on thr counter. I wiped off his mouth for him since he seemed about to pass out. I washed his face gently and handed him the aspirin. i gently helped him take the pills and he whined, leaning his head on me. i shook him once and he didn’t respond 

“Peanuts did you pass out?” I whined nervously and he shook his head

“m’tired” he whimpered “an’sicky” he said in a very British-like way, trying to grab my shirt. I kissed his hand

“shhh its okay baby” I murmured. I turned and let him climb onto my back

“i know you dont like em bur its the only way i can carry you” I laughed softly, dropping him onto our bed “im not as strong as you” I laughed. I covered him in the blankets and opened the curtains to lwt in some of the morning light. he whined and gave me a pleading look.

“what is it Ollie? are you cold?” I asked. he nodded and i covered him in the blankets. he promptly fell asleep. I laughed softly and pressed my lips to his forehead. he was still hot. I checked my phone. there wasn’t anything worth responding to right now. I decided to make something to eat. I just nibbled on a piece of tosst while I made Peanuts beans. I laughed, remembering when he’d asked why i was trying to put my family in the microwave when hed seen me making him a poor imitation of beans on toast. He liked it a lot.

———

I walked back into our bedroom a few hours later. Id decided to let him sleep because he needed it. He was awake, and attempted to sit up. I kissed his forehead 

“i made you lunch” I said. He looked at me as i helped him into a sitting position. I broke off a bit of the toast and held it to his mouth. he gave me a look and i huffed 

“you dont get to be annoyed you’re sick and i worry” i huffed, poking his lips with the toast. he opened his mouth and ate it. he nuzzled me appreciatively

“thanks Beany” he said raspily (and Britishly) “we have tea by any chance?” J nodded and handed him a thermos. he smiled 

“thanks beany” he said. I nodded and held it to hso mouth so he could drink it.

“feeling better?” I asked. He nodded 

“thank you”

“of course! I love you” I grinned 

“love ya too Beany”

Day 15 -CUDDLING OR HOLDING HANDS-

-Bean-

  I winced at the noise and pressed myself against the wall. there were too many of us in the room.  

I looked around for my friend. Were we boyfriends? i didn’t know. and right now i didn’t exactly care that much. I just wanted comfort. 

I spotted Peanuts nervously cracking his knuckles. God everything hurt all over. Jojo was writhing, screaming as Mike and Mush tried to cslm him down enough so they could check out his leg. And the kicker was, he wasnt even the worse one. I whined and tested my leg. pain shot through my ankle and i whimpered. I managed to limp over to him and he squeaked when he saw me. he eas bruised and bloody but he was okay otherwise. Id figured he would be. people never realized how strong he was 

He pulled me into a hug and i wemt mostly limp. He squeaked at the sudden addition of my weight 

“it hurts” I whimpered into his collarbone. He pet my hair, picking me up. I squeaked and held onto him. He gently set me on my bunk. I whimpered, pain flaring across my ribs. I closed my eyes. my head felt fuzzy. Peanuts came back with Mush and Mush started to poke at my ribs. I whimpered and grabbed Peanuts hand for comfort.

-

I think i might have passed out because neck thing i knew I was lying against someone. They were petting my hair gently. I felt pain in my ribs.

“hey welcome back” Peanuts murmured, rubbing my chest lightly. I whined and rubbed my hesd on him. I realized he was in a half-sitting position with me lying against him. My back was to his chest. his arms were wrapped arunf my stomach gently. i leaned against him.

I liked cuddling him.

“I love you” Peanuts murmured into my ear. I yawned, snuggling more into him

“I love you too!” I said happily. I stretched slightly, letting out a sort of mewling sound as i did so. Peanuts laughed

“feel good?” he said. I nodded, snuggling bsck into him

“now hold me” I demanded!sleepily. rubbing my head on his chest. He chuckled, wrapping his arms back around me

“better baby?”

“yesss” i giggled, then winced as it hurt my ribs.

“back to sleep” Peanuts ordered. I looked up at him

“you wont let go of me?” I whimpered. he nodded, rubbing my chest again.

“I promise, I’m holding you all night”

“good” I mumbled, yawning again. I let pit another mewling sound as I yawned. I snuggled into him more

“I love you”

“I love you too baby”

Day 16 - JEALOUSY-

-Bean-

  I laughed as Jake flopped onto me. He was a pretty affectionate guy and liked to lay on people. It was normal. i didn’t think much of it. 

“im bored” he declared. I laughed, bouncing my leg

“that so?”

“yessss” he said, getting comfortable on my lap. I rolled my eyes and began to play with his hair. It wasn’t uncommon for newsies to act like this. we were all super close, it was just how things worked. I glanced over at Peanuts bunk and saw him glaring at something. 

That was my cue to go call him down. I got up and made my way over to him

“hi Bar-“ I said. He pulled me into his lap and squeezed me “-ney” 

“hi bean” he mumbled, squeezing my stomach tightly. I laughed in confusion and wiggled. he didn’t let go, he buried his face in my neck, biting the skin slightly. I squirmed for an entirely different reason now

“Peanuts? what on earth are you-“ I laugh, confused. 

“nothing” he mumbled, still holding me protectively. he buried his face into my neck, pressing gentle kisses to the skin. I wiggled and he huffed. I looked at him

“baby whats wrong?”

“jus stay still” he whined, kissing me. “I want your attention too yknow” It clicked

“is someone jealous?” i chuckled. He huffed and buried his face in me. I laughed and rubbed his hair

“its okay baby, I promise I love *you*, okay? you’re the only one i love like this” i murmured, stroking his hair. He nodded, hiding his face still

“but why?” he whined softly “you could have pretty much anyone else”

“i dont *want* anyone else Oliver” I murmured to him “i only want *you*. and I love you. *lots*” he looked up atme and smiled, burying his face in me

“i love you too”

Day 17 - BREAKFEAST OR DINNER TOGETHER- 

-Bean pov-

Peanuts was bent over the table, reading a book. I peeked over his shoulder. It was his math textbook. I kissed his hair and went to the fridge. I made him a ham (actual ham not the shitty lunchmeat ham) and cheese sandwich. I put some chips on the plate snd sat down next to him.

I hummed happily as i poked Peanuts lips with the sandwich. He looked at me, laughing

“Bean-“ he was cut off by me putting the sandwich in his mouth 

“eat” I demanded. he laughed and took a bite of the sandwich. i watched him swallow it 

“better?” he said. I shrugged and held the sandwich up to his lips again. he laughed and took another bite

“baby im working on somet-“ i put the sandwich back in his mouth and he rolled his eyes affectionately and took a bite. i held his cup of water to his lips. He took a drink

“Beany I can feed myself Im not a kid-“ he protested as i held the sandwich to his lips again. he huffed and ate the remainder of the sandwich. I hummed and held the water to his lips. He drank it. I hugged him and he laughed, kissing my hair

“did you eat enough?” I said, squeezing him. HE nodded

“its okay baby, don’t fuss” Peanuts chuckled

“Imma fuss” I mumbled, looking up at him. He used s lot of energy everyday for dance, and i wanted to make sure he ate enough. he kissed my hair and held some of the chips to my lips. I huffed in irritation but took the chips and ate them. He squeezed me

“cutie”

“no!” I squeaked, crossing my arms. He laughed, kissing my hair

“yes yiu are, worrying all about me” he laughed. I huffed and kissed him on the lips

“stop laughing!!” I whined, hitting his arms. He kept laughing, grinning.

day 18 - TEACHING THE OTHER SOMETHING - 

-Peanuts- 

I nearly fell over laughing at Beans attempted cartwheel. he huffed from his spot on the ground, lying flat on his back. 

“hon-“ I giggled 

“shut up” he huffed, sitting up “im not a gymnast Peanuts”

“i know seven year old girls who can do a cartwheel better than that” I giggled. he huffed and kissed me grumpily. I grinned and laughed, turning a cartwheel. he groaned and i got an idea

“do a handstand!”

“Peanuts-“

“ill hold you up” i explained. he gave me a looo but did so. I grabbed his legs and held them up. he squeaked at the feeling.

“like this” I said, pushing his feet to the side. He yelped but managed to do some semblance of a cartwheel. He gave me a look and attempted.

he almost did it this time.

“dont think too much of it, just let your body do what it wants”

“my body wants to fall” he replied, grinning. I cackled and did a flip. he groaned

“you are- you’re a butthead sometimes” he huffed. He tried again and did it!

he looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

“you did it!!!” I squealed. He grinned happily. I hugged himm and kissed him

“Im so proud of youuuu!!” I squealed

“irs just a cartwheel baby-“ he said, but he was smiling nontheless. Yes it wasn’t really anything important, but it was something. And hed been trying for anout a week so it was really good to see him do it. I smothered him in kissed as he laughed

“I-“ He managed between kisses “love you-“

“I love you too!!!!”

Day 19 - BREAK UP AND MAKING UP - 

-Tommy Boy (itll make sense i promise)- 

  I wasn’t exactly expecting for Bean to come running into my room and flop onto my bed. he buried his face in my pillow, shaking. I slowly got up from my desk and made my way to him. I placed a hand on his back. rubbing it gently

“Angie what’s wrong?” I asked him. he just whined and i was pretty sure he was crying. I pulled him info a sitting position. he buried his face in my shoulder 

“H-he-“ Bean choked out “he broke up with me!” I hugged him tightly against me. I rubbed his back. he just kept sobbing. I was gonna fucking murder Peanuts. Nobody hurt my brother and got away with it.

——— 2 months later———

There was a knock on the door and i glanced at Bean. He looked at me snd shrugged. I grunted and stood up, my arms over my chest as I made my way to the door. I opened the door

-Peanuts-

I saw the way Tommy’s face drop when he saw me. He had his arms crossed over his chest

“what?” he said. I felt a phantom pain from where he’d slapped me two months ago.

“I- I wanna talk to Bean” I said. He gave me a look and I swear i heard him growl

“Bean! Peanuts is here!” He called. I heard Beans’ voice reply

“who?”

“Your fucking Ex!” Tommy shouted. there was a reply i couldn’t make out

“seriously?” Tommy yelled. He gave me a look

“you can come in. only cause Bean wants you here” He said venomously. I nodded, nervously following him inside. Bean was curled up under a blanket on the couch. He got up with the blanket still wrapped around him. I rubbed my arm nervously

“can we talk?” I asked. he nodded. 

-Bean-

I looked at Peanuts as he lead me into the kitchen. Tommy was glaring daggers at Peanuts. I bit back the words that wanted to start spilling out of my mouth. word vomit. I bit my tongue 

“look-“ Peanuts said, looking down at the ground 

“Why ate you here? You broke up with me” I nearly spat. Seeing him made it all come back. There was a clawing feeling in my chest as i looked at him. I wanted to hug him so bad. I wanted to hug him and kiss him. 

“I- look- Beany-“ He said. I bit my lip. I was gonna start crying again. my stomach was   flipping along with the clawing in my chest.  “Im sorry” He said “i- god im so so sorry Bean I was just- god im so sorry” He said. I bit my cheek

“Peanuts- Peanuts you broke my heart-“ I said softly

“I know- I know and im so so so worry Bean I was so scared I was gonna mess it up and I ended up messing up so bad im so so sorry” he rambled I sighed softly. god i loves him too much to stay upset

“try again?” I asked softly. H nodded

“please? we can start back at the beginning if you want” He said I noddes and hugged him 

“good to hvae you back Barn”

“you too Beany” I almost melted then and there in his arms. god id missed him. 

Day 20 - RAINY DAY

-Bean-

I grumbled as I grabbed a towel from the cabinet and rubbed my hair with it, attempting to dry it. Peanuts laughed

“Jus lemme use the blow dryer” he laughed. I groaned

“We gotta go anywhere tonight?”

“No” he said, shrugging. I sighed under my breat. 

“Fine” I said, sitting on the counter as I  watched him pull up the hairdryer and plug it in. I kissed him lightly as he waited. He grinned and nuzzled me

“You’re cute” he decided happily, starting to dry off my hair with the blow dryer. I huffed

“I look like a wet dog baby” I said, raising my eyebrows. He huffed and aimed the hairdryer at my face. I balked at the sudden air. He laughed and continued to work on my hair. I knew it was gonna make my hair fluffy.

My hair wasn’t exactly curly. It was too wavy to be curly and too curly to be wavy. It was this weird mix in between.

But I’d used a blow dryer before, and it had made my hair aggressively fluffy. 

I huffed as Peanuts finished.

“Awwww!” He cooed, patting my hair gently “fluffy!!”  I groaned, hiding my face in my hands. It looked fucking stupid when it was fluffy. 

“No” I grumbled, putting my hood up. Peanuts giggled and picked me up as I wiggled. He plopped me on the couch and produced a bowl of popcorn. He offered it to me and I shook my head, crossing my arms over my stomach as I leaned into him. He laughed and pulled my hood down, tossing a blanket over us

“Oh stop frumping you’re cute” he giggled, running his hands through my hair. I grumbled and picked a piece of popcorn and ate it hesitantly. It was pouring buckets outside. I huffed and  snuggled against my boyfriend as he turned on a movie. I didn’t know what it was. I didn’t watch a lot of movies. I just yawned slightly and let Peanuts continue to play with my fluff

“I love you” I murmured. He grinned and kissed me

“Love you too!

Day 21 - ANOTHER TIME PERIOD AU -

-Cowboy AU- 

-Bean- 

The house was already overcrowded. But it felt worse with the panic. Jack was yelling something, but it couldn’t be heard over the hum of noise. Some screamed. It was cutoff abruptly. I scanned for my boyfriend. Oh god where was Peanuts? where was he?? I bit my lip and tested my leg. Id banged up my ankle bad, but as long as i used the counter to hold some of my weight i could sort of walk. I figured Peanuts was in his (technically our) room. 

I was right. He was on our bed with Henry attempting to calm him down as he writhed. Blink had his hands over a specific spot on his chest. Peanuts was letting out shouts and yelps of pain. Henry looked at me anf motioned for me to come over. 

I limped over to Henry’s spot by Peanuts head. I looked down at Peanuts. his pupils were blown and he was writhing in pain. his jaw was clenched. I touched his cheek and his eyes snapped to me

“hey hey, take a breath Peanuts” I said, rubbing his hair. He grabbed my wrist, squeezing it. I held his hand lightly and he squeezed mine tightly 

“just breathe” I said, looking at Blink

“what on earth-

“bullet” He said, grabbing something and poking at the wound. Peanuts writhed again. I squeezed his hand. Henry was in the process holding him  down as Blink worked on pulling out the bullet. Henry was practically laying across Peanuts to keep him still. I stroked his hair and pressed kisses to his ear and cheek and nose and forehead and lips and hair.

“got it!” Blink grunted, setting the bullet on the table. He produced a bottle of whiskey and i gave him a look. He poured it onto the wound, causing Peanuts to let out a strangled yell. He jerked upwards. Blink growled under his breath and opened my boyfriend’s mouth. He poured something down his throat 

“make sure he swallows it” He said to me as he continued to hold him down “itll knock him out” he explained. I nodded and tipped his head back. He coughed but swallowed. 

about s minute later he started to calm down. Blink and Henry kept a hold on him for close to five minutes as he slowly but surely fell unconscious. Blink started to work on the wound. Henry left to go help elsewhere. Once blink finished with the one on his chest he left us alone. 

I glanced around the room. there was a picture of me on Snickerdoodle nect to Stormy with Peanuts on her back. and there was a photo booth reel of me snd Peanuts. 

i winced as i thought about the shoot out. I was worried about my boyfriend 

———

I was nibbling on a piece of pizza Race had brought me as i waited for Peanuts to wake up. 

My head snapped to look at him as he made a soft groaning noise. I watched him hopefully 

“Ollie?” I asked him, tilting my head. He groaned, cracking an eye open.

“Heyy” he said raspily, smiling slightly. I took the cup of water and held it to his mouth. he gave me a look

“I can hold a cup baby-“

“shhh, drink” I said, kissing his forehead. He rolled his eyes but did as I said. I set the cup down and he attempted to sot up more. I shook my head snd gently pushed him back down 

“mm-mm stay still” I said, kissing his ear. “You got shot like four times” I added, kissing his hair “so rest” 

“mkay” He agreed, looking at his bare chest. He had bandages around his chest

“where’d i get it?”

“twice in the chest, once in the stomach, and once in the thigh” I said, holding a piece of pizza to his lips. He opened his mouth and allowed me to feed him, although he didn’t seem thrilled about it. 

“are you okay?” He asked me. I shrugged

“Twisted my ankle bad and I’m bruised up but otherwise peachy” I said, kissing him. He grinned at the kiss “is Stormy alright?” He added anxiously. I nodded and kissed him

“she’s perfectly fine I promise” I hummed, nuzzling his neck. He laughed softly then let out a soft whimper. I jerked back and immediately started checking him over

“Angelo-“ he groaned, grabbing my cheeks between his hands  “Im *fine*”

“But-“

He pressed his lips against mine and i huffed

“i love you” he said against my lips, grinning

“i love you too… even if you are an idiot”

Day 22 -     DANCING -

-Bean-

I groaned as Peanuts tugged on my wrist. I gave him a look

“Barn-“ I whined as he pulled me up and onto the dance floor. He grinned, putting his arms around my waist, resting in the small of my back. I whined, giving him a pleading look. He kissed my forehead and rubbed my back with his thumb gently.

I whined and put my arms around his neck, not thrilled with this development. he kissed my forehead gently. 

“Beany its okay- nobody’s watching” He laughed softly. I whined, giving him a pleading look. 

“Barn c’mon-“

“shhh it’s okay- look around baby nobody’s watching us” he chuckled. I whined and looked around. he was right. nobody was even looking in our direction. I huffed and allowed him to sway me gently. He laughed, kissing my forehead once again. I groaned softly. God i hated dancing. So so much. I never understood how Peanuts liked it. I just bit my tongue and let him dance with me. 

God i hated this so so so much. 

I legitimately wanted to melt into a puddle and die. Or just die. More than I usually did anyways. 

“baby its okay” He chuckled. 

“god Barn they’re looking they know i don’t like this-“ I said, feeling myself starting to panic. He rubbed a hand up and down my back gently, still swaying gently 

“baby its okay” he murmured “the songs almost over”

“god it better be” The song ended and I

sighed in relief as Peanuts allowed me to drag him back to our table. I sat down and sipped my drink. Peanuts chuckled and kissed my hand

“love you my dancing prince” he chuckled. I swatted him lightly 

“asshole” I huffed “but i love you too”

Day 23  - GETTING DRUNK -

-Peanuts-

  I chuckled as i watched Bean swaying in his chair. He was completely shitfaced blackout drunk and it was adorable and hysterical at the same time. I chuckled and held him still. He gaped at me and i laughed 

“what is it Beany?”

“ya made the world stop spinning!” he said, still gaping. I laughed and kissed him gently 

“yeah?” I giggled. He nodded, clinging to me

“s t r o n g” he babbled happily, burying his face into my stomach. I laughed, patting his hair. I ended up just carrying him to the car. I put him in the passenger seat and he giggled,reaching to touch my face. I laughed as he clumsily patted my cheek, grinning loopily

“my pretty Peanut” He grinned, squishing my cheeks. I laughed and closed the car door, getting in the drivers seat. 

———

I snorted as Bean tried to stumble up the stairs. he tripped and managed to fall halfway back down the stairs. He then proceeded to curl up on the stair. I laughed and started recording this, just to show him tomorrow.

“Beany what are you doing?” I laughed. he whined sleepily.

“bedtime” He yawned. I snickered and picked him up. 

I carried him to our bed and he yawned, snuggling into… the box. The box id tossed on the bed because i needed to toss it. 

My boyfriend was cuddling a cardboard box.

I chuckled and got a picture of it before rolling him onto his back, despite his protests. 

I laughed and pulled his jeans off. He gasped and i snickered

“yes bean?”

“aRe YoU tRyInG tO s E d U c E mE?” He said, I giggled and shook my head. I laughed and pulled a pair of sweatpants onto him. I kissed his forehead and pulled one of my hoodies over his head. 

I laid down next to him and held him against me. He yawned sleepily and pressed kisses all over my face. I giggled even more as he started to sing poker face very drunk and sleepily. He paused, looking very confused. he shrugged and burrowed into me, promptly falling asleep.

———

I laughed as i woke ip ti the sound of my boyfriend hurling his insides up from the bathroom

“morning baby!” I called, laughing. A loud groan was my response. 

“Hi Barn” He replied from the bathroom. I laughed and snuggled into the blankets more

“I’m goin back to bed its Sunday!” I laughed, yawning. He groaned loudly again. I giggled so hard i almost fell out of bed.

Day 24 - ROMANTIC EVENING - 

-Peanuts-

I knew Bean’d had a rough day. He got home and given me a hug before going to take a shower.

He looked like he’d been crying when he joined me on the couch. I kissed his cheek before getting up. He didn’t react. He just stared at the TV with the glazed look he got when he was really upset. I kissed his hair

“imma make dinner, okay?” I said. he nodded faintly 

“mhm” he said, his voice barley audible. I went to the kitchen. I hummed softly to myself as I put the lasagna in the oven to cook. It was Bean’s favorite. I glanced into the living room. He was curled up under a blanket now. I smiled softly and went to our room 

I went to the bed and made a little nest of blankets. I hummed to myself as I tossed an extra pillow into the nest. I turned on the tv and picked a movie. I paused it at the beginning and went to check the food. It was almost done. I hummed softly as I pulled two bottles of the fizzy drinks our of the fridge. I set it on the counter and started to fix the rolls. 

After I had the food all set up i took it to our room and set it on the dresser while i went to get my boyfriend.

I scooped him up off the couch and he squeaked, looking at me. I grinned, kissing his forehead

“dinnertime” I hummed as I placed him into the blanket nest. He gave me a look snd I grinned, putting the plate in his lap. I handed him his drink and sat down next to him, eating my food. Bean poked at his food snd i kissed his temple, turning on the movie. it was a Captain America movie. he forced a smile and ate his food. I kept an eye on him to make sure he ate all of it. Once we both finished i set the plates on the dresser and pulled the blankets over us. He snuggled into me, peeking up

“Ollie?” He whimpered. I hummed, kissing his forehead

“yeah baby?”

“Am i ugly?” he whimpered. I pulled him against me, rubbing his back

“not at all baby” I said, kissing him.

“you promise?” he whimpered. I nodded, squeezing him tightly 

“I promise- you’re beautiful baby” I grinned. He smiled slightly. He felt a little better. I knew he wasnt completely better, bur he was a bit better. I kissed all over his face

“I love youuu!!!!!! I love you my pretty boy!!” I grinned, nuzzling him all over. He giggled as I tickled him, snorting as he laughed

“baby!!” He cackled

“i love youuuu pretty babyy!!!” I grinned, kissing all over.

“I love you too!” He squealed, wriggling. I grinned as I snuggled into him. He laughed, kissing my hair.

“better?” I murmured

“better” he agreed, nuzzling my hair. I hummed as I felt him olay with my hair as the movie continued.

“love you my pretty boy”

“i love you too Ollie”

Day 25 - ENGAGEMENT AND MARRIAGE -

-Bean-

  I groaned worriedly, tugging on my tie as i looked in the mirror. Henry was tying Graves’ for him. I glanced at them

“this is a bad idea”

“fucker you aint going nowhere I came here on a fucking Saturday” York said from the doorway. Tommy spat out his water as he laughed, gasping for air. Henry and Graves were cackling. I shot York a look

“why are you here again?” I asked

“Good question” He replied dryly. Graves cackled, giving his boyfriend a giggly kiss. York hummed and kissed his boyfriend before slipping back out of the room. I gave Graves a look and he shrugged.

“shit how much is Romeo allowed to have?” Henry said, looking at him. Romeo gave him a look and put the wine glass in his face

“Cranberry juice dumbass” he said, rolling his eyes. I smiled slightly. At least they were taking my mind off the horrible pit of growing anxiety in my stomach. 

Oh god i was so nervous.

I mean I knew I loved Peanuts.

I loved him so much. 

He loved me. I kept telling myself. I knew he did, he’d told me last night. He’d told me a few hours ago before we’d both gone to do our own things.-

God I was nervous. 

I fixed my hair. There wasn’t actually anything to fix. God i didn’t know what to do with my hands. 

-skip cause im so lazy💀-

I swallowed hard as i looked at Peanuts. Holy fucking shit he was beautiful. He’d found a white suit and had made it look like something amazing. there was a white sort of cape. I grinned internally. It was definitely something he’d wear. 

I honestly couldn’t say I knew what i was doing at the altar. I smiled nervously at Peanuts and he grinned happily at me. I smiled again. 

It didn’t feel like me talking as we went through the vows. I knew what I said. I knew what he said. I knew we kissed. 

but it was an out of body experience. 

I didn’t care

I grinned as i hugged him happily, kissing him. I faintly heard Graves saying

“York pay attention” and someone giggling as a result. I didn’t care. I was married now.

—

I giggled softly as i leaned against Peanuts. He had an arm around me protectively. I kissed his cheek

“Hey husband I like your cape” I giggled. He grinned, kissing me

“i was waiting until you said something” he grinned “Specs helped with it” he added happily.

i nodded, yawning softly as I leaned into him. It was getting late now. peanuts ran a hand through my hair. I huffed. he giggled snd patted it down. I watched a very clearly drunk Romeo stumble up and take the mic. Everyone who knew Romeo laughed, waiting for the wonder that was an extremely drunk Romeo. I saw Jack start to record. Davey hid his face in his hands

“So Bean” Romeo said, squinting “wait where’s Bean?”

“here Romeo” I laughed, raising my hand. Romeo turned to me

“you better know how lucky you are” he slurred, pointing at Peanuts “Cause that guy is a very good guy” 

“oh god” I chuckled, grinning at Romeo “Dont worry I’ll be good to him!” I laughed, loud enough for him to hear me

“good!” Romeo said, swaying where he stood “Cause Race and Bumlets can back me up here that man is a bendy straw” I watched Peanuts turn red and hide his face in his hands. Specs hid his face with his hands as he started to walk up to where his fiancé was. 

“Seriously Bean the things you could do with him- I dunno what y’all have tried but like-“ He was cut off by a very red Specs pulling his fiancé away from the mic. I laughed as my husband groaned in embarrassment, still hiding his bright red face in his hands. I laughed as I patted his back, grinning at Graves, whod been filming our reactions. 

This was gonna get edited into the drunk Romeo montage.

“i love you Ollie” I giggled

“love you too Angie” He groaned, still bright red.

“my bendy straw”

“sHuSh!” He laughed, bumping my shoulder. 

Day 26. - SNOWY NIGHTS -

-Peanuts- 

There had to have been at least a foot of snow on the ground. I groaned as i stomped my feet to get the snow off. 

“Im home baby!”

“bedroom!” He called back 

I giggled softly as I saw my boyfriend on our bed. Id been filming in an attempt to make a video for tiktock, but had instead been greeted by a lump under all the blankets. I grinned and ended the video.

“im gonna make a drink then we can cuddle okay?”

“fineee” 

I went to the kitchen and hurriedly made us hot chocolate. I ended up putting it in a thermos (technically two, Bean was paranoid about sharing drinks) so it wouldn’t spill. 

“come hereee!!!” He demanded from his blanket mound. I laughed and tossed my jacket aside as I flopped next to his blanket mound. He groaned

“Babyyy w H y is it so cold!!!” He whined, flopping onto my lap. He was still thoroughly wrapped in the blankets. I pet his hair gently

“its not baby”

“yes it is im f r e e z i n g!!!” He said, curling up in my lap. He wrapped one of his blankets around me and him as he snuggled into my chest. I kissed his hair and he shivered

“its too cold baby” he declared, turning on a movie. I laughed, wrapping my arms around him. 

“is that so?”

“yes!”

“Warmer in Argentina?” I laughed, kissing his good ear.

“nO sHiT!” He said, huffing. I laughed and kissed him, holding him tightly. I freed one arm and handed him his hot chocolate. He opened it and sniffed it. I laughed

“hot chocolate my little freezebaby”

“oh” He said happily, sipping it. I laughed and kissed him.

He tasted luke hot chocolate. I grinned against his lips. He laughed and nuzzled me

“thanks baby”

“of course my little peach!”

“wHaT?”

“they grow in warm weather” I explained, nuzzling him after taking a small sip from my thermos of hot chocolate

“weirdo” 

“your weirdo” I reminded him

“love ya baby”

“love you too!”

Day 27 - FAVORITE SONG- 

-Peanuts-

I grinned as I practically threw myself into the bus seat, resting my head on my boyfriend. He grunted as I landed on him. I grinned up at him and he patted my hair gently. I hummed and took one of his earbuds, listening for s moment. I honestly couldn’t name the song or the artist, but I knew the song’s lyrics. Bean played it a lot. It was some kind of metal. I didn’t know what it was but it sounded cool. I hummed along to it happily as he played with my hair. I poked his cheek and he looked down at me

“yeah Barn?”

“is this ya favorite song?” I asked him. He blinked and nodded. I kissed his cheek, nuzzling him

“why?”

He gave me a sideways look

“what?”

“why’s it ya favorite?” I asked, tilting my head “also whats it called?”

“walk with me in hell” He said, flushing red as I started petting his hair.

“why do ya like it?”

“the music part of it” he said, yawning. I pressed a kiss to his bad ear and he buried his face in his hands. I giggled, listening to the song. Personally I didn’t like it too much. I wasn’t a huge fan of the louder songs he listened to. He handed me his phone 

“whats yours?” he asked. I grinned and typed in the song name. I recognized the familiar album cover. 

I played the song and he scrunched his nose up. He did that when he was thinking. God it was adorable. He looked at me

“this is greatest showman?”

“yeah, its tightrope” I said. He nodded, humming as he buried his face into my hair.

“sounds like you”

“aww thanks” I laughed as my boyfriend nuzzled into me.

Day 28 - BIRTHDAY -

-Peanuts-

I wrapped my arms around myself as I shivered. It was definitely cold out. 

It was december after all. Snow was lightly falling. I grunted under my breath as I held the bag against my chest under my coat. It was warm as I held it tightly. I managed to get back to the train. 

It was warmer in there. 

I trudged to my and Bean’s bunk, climbing up and flopping onto my back. He yelped as I fell onto him. I grinned and sat up 

“happy birthday baby” I grinned, handing him the bag. He kissed my nose

“what did you do?” he laughed. I grinned, setting the bag in kept my belongings in into my lap to find his other gift. 

“just open it baby” I hummed. I knew he’d always had a liking to sweets. I heard him make a happy sound as he realized what was in the bag. I smiled as i found the small box that contained his gift. I put my bag back where it served as a pillow. I laughed as I saw him halfway through the pastry already. 

“here” I handed him the box. he inhaled the rest of the pastry before looking at me

“what did you do?” he asked me, wiping the remaining filling off his mouth and licking it off his hand. 

“just open it” I laughed. He did as I said. He cooed when he saw it. I’d made him a sort of vaguely frog-shaped stuffed animal. It fit in the palm of his hand. I laughed sheepishly 

“I know its not great but it’s supposed to be a frog cause I know you like those and-“ I was cut off by him hugging me and kissing me deeply. I grinned into the kiss, kissing him before pulling away

“thank you so much!” He squealed happily, clinging to me. I laughed softly

“happy birthday baby” I grinned. he hummed happily and proceeded to bury us both under the three blankets on the bunk. I yawned and snuggled against him. I giggled as he set the frog on the pillow next to us. I tucked the frog under his chin

“gotta make sure it stays warm” I said, kissing his forehead. He giggled happily, grinning. I laughed and kissed him

“Happy birthday baby, I love you Beany”

“I love you too” he said happily, booping my nose with the frog before snuggling into me, the small frog tucked into the small space between us. 

Day 29 - STARGAZING - 

-Bean-

  I laughed softly as Peanuts pulled me into his chair. I kissed his chin as i snuggled into him. He’d managed to convince me to go camping with him. Personally I wasn’t exactly as fond of this as he was. I munched happily on my s’more. Peanuts kissed my hair. The fire was the only light other than the stars. 

“s pretty” I murmured, wiggling down into my hoodie. 

“It is” Peanuts agreed softly, rubbing my back “You doing okay?” he asked me. I nodded as i kissed him.

“yeah”

“good” he hummed, kissing me. I smiled. I loved him so much with that little smile of his. He had a small chip in one of his front teeth, it gave his smile a sort of crooked appearance. It was cute.

He was looking up at the sky. I felt myself redden at the view. He was absolutely fucking gorgeous. I  smiled. He squeezed me against himself

“thas Andromeda” I said, pointing to a few stars

“ain’t Cassiopeia close to her?” He asked. I nodded

“yeah- right there”  I pointed  “Big dipper, that leads into ursa major” I said. He nodded along as I continued to name constellations

“i think thats Orion” I said, snuggling against his chest. The smell of the campfire smoke filled the air, the crackling sound filling the relative silence.

I continued talking. AT some point I’d started to tell him the stories of the constellations. 

“Beany” He said softly, yawning. I looked at him 

“yeah baby?”

“you’re real cute when you get all happy bout the stars” he said. I reddened and grinned

“thanks baby”

“anytime Beany”

“I love you”

“love you too”

Day 30 - GROWING OLD TOGETHER -

-Peanuts- 

  I hummed softly as I read my book. Bean ran his hands through my hair. I looked up at him as he kissed my forehead. I grinned at him

“old man” I giggled, sitting up and kissing his lips. He rolled his eyes and laughed

“you’re old too yknow” 

“but you’re olderrrr”

“nO iM nOt” he laughed, pushing my shoulder “im not even that old! barley in my 30s” I grinned, kissing him. He rolled his eyes and tugged me into his lap

“you’re comfy” I grinned up at him. He laughed snd kissed my hair. I snuggled into his chest. I grinned happily. We’d been together for quite a while now. I hummed as I kissed the ring on his finger.

“you remember that one time you tried to snuggle a cardboard box?” I laughed. He huffed and ran his fingers through my hair

“you once hugged a lamppost and refused to let go” He laughed, kissing my forehead.

“i was very drunk” I grinned. He laughed in agreement 

“very”

I kissed him

“remember Romeo at the wedding?”

“you mean how he basicslly said you we’re flexible and we could fuck in some weird ways? how could i forget” He grinned.

“Oh man Specs was so red!” I laughed. He nodded in agreement. I played with his fingers as we cuddled. wed been friends, and more than thst, for such a long time, and we still had awhile to go. I grinned. I couldn’t wait to see what happened next in our lives.

birds sing for you and me

fandom: elvis presley | elvis ( 2022 ) rating: m pairing: elvis presley x gender neutral reader, i think. wordcount: 610 warnings: no use of y/n. mentions of fights. mentions of elvis's insomnia/sleep issues. brief madonna complex undertone thing it's a very much blink and miss. me deciding to write in a way i very rarely break out, it's not everyone's cup of tea. it leans more poetic than anything else. smut isn't super graphic. author’s note: elise was having soft elvis hours and this happened because i opened this up like a idiot at the same time. this is for my 1k gala that's still going on. i don't know how to explain this y'all, even down to the image, but i hope you like it. austin elvis or actual elvis works for this. also thank you elise baby, but i already said that in private but it bears repeating! and if y'all saw a different word count originally no you didn't.

Sometimes- sometimes Elvis sleeps. Graceland is usually where Elvis can sleep the best, wrapped up in the one place that's always been home from the moment he bought it. It's the one place that's uniquely his. His place to settle his body and hsi mind and- recenter himself properly. On those days he wakes up to the sounds of birds singing and your breathing.

Sometimes- sometimes Elvis doesn't sleep. Graceland can center him but Graceland is also where he can bring his friends together. Where he can bring everyone he cares about under one roof and for the most part everyone knows to get along. Knows that if anyone's starting a fight it's you or him. Possibly with each other but more than likely with someone else because something was said about how you stay in his lap, curled up in some combination of an animal, a lover and a child all at once. It's fights started because someone wants to make fun of how you and him baby talk with each other as if they haven't been used to it when he was with Linda or when he was married to Priscilla. Elvis doesn't usually stand for the comments though, it's his house, his domain and while some of his friends might not still work for him- they're- he reminds them where his loyalty lies, where he hopes theirs does as well. On those days he goes to sleep to the sounds of birds singing and your breathing.

Sometimes- sometimes it's both. Sometimes he sleeps so well in the beginning hours of the night or the ending hours of the night but wakes up and finds himself wishing you'd make more noises than just breathing. You're intune with him in a way Linda wasn't and in a way Priscilla wasn't so he usually wakes up to your eyes blinking at him with a sleepy sort of grin on your face.

These nights you roll on top of him or he rolls on top of you with a hum because you both may be awake but words escape you in the moment, words require too much brain power in the beginning. The hums turn into sighs and gasps and growls as his hands move across your skin, across your back and hips and ass. As your hands move across his stomach, across his shoulder blades and under his paunch to feel his hardened cock straining in what you and him affectionately call his lil scarf. You pull it back and maneuver yourself so that you can slip him in. His thrusts aren't forceful when you two are like this, not like they are when you're both properly awake. They're slow and gentle and yet you whimper just the same.

"Music t' my ears." He murmurs, his lips against your skin. "Love that sound ya make. Do it again, Buntyn. Tell me how much ya love-"

You always cut him off with a kiss and a soft smile before you make the noise again, this time more exaggerated as you both laugh a little. When you come it's slowly, a fire that's been stoked to the roaring intensity before it burns itself out. It's the same with Elvis, sometimes before you sometimes after you but he makes sure you do no matter what. You deserve that for that sound and for your love.

On these nights- on these nights he thinks the birds only sing for you and him on the nights and mornings there's silence in your shared bedroom. On these nights, he'll take the sounds of you and him together over any bird or any song he can sing.

[intcritus]

Beorn's heard from Kaveh, the birthday of the ages it seemed in the workshop but for him. He did his best to get something worthy of a being that wasn't an any old thing. According to some fishwives, he was presenting a basket of rare Sumeru fruits and a fanciful quill made from the feathers of a local bird. "Great Celebrations, I'll take away Kaveh's workload, so don't let him escape with that excuse." Wink.

If it hadn't been for Kaveh, Kaeya would probably be somewhere in Mondstat, probably on a high hilltop and overlooking thr ocean, just reminescing on his life thus far, wishing for a hard reset while also just settling into another year that he was alive. It's nice though, being thought about on a day where Adelaide would've came to find him and drag him to the Winery to celebrate a day he doesn't think about often. He avoids the Winery for personal reasons and truthfully, only goes whenever he knows the Master of the Winery will be away. Cowardly ? Probably but he's okay with that.

Allowing the thoughts to be fleeting as the wind in his hair, Kaeya finds himself sipping some chair, a hum of delight on hsi tongue. It isn't as delicious as Kaveh's but it'll do. Puspa Café offers a modicum of great atmosphere and the low, white noise soothes him. Lashes dip low over his lone eye, taking another sip. He mourns the thought of having to go back to Mondstat, but in the meantime, he'll treasure this. Sumeru is a world away, it's where his love is and why would he ever want to leave that? His head tips back a little when he sees someone approaching and a warm, fond smile curls his lips at Beorn's presence.

Ah, his precious friend ! Seemed Kaveh had told someone else. His chest warms as he gets to his feet, taking the basket with care, ❝ ━ My, my, look at you getting me something for this silly day. You truly didn't have to, but I appreciate it nonetheless. ❞ His words are sincere, eye closing as he grinned, looking down into the basket. Archons, he couldn't wait to try these with Kaveh. Maybe because it was his birthday he could get his lover to feed them to him ? ❝ ━ Will you join me for an early lunch ? I haven't eaten anything and food taste better with friends. ❞

"When you contemplate impermanence genuinely, the ordinary selfish mind does not arise, and you do not seek fame or fortune because you realize that nothing prevents the swift flow of time. You must practice the Way as though you were trying to keep your head from being consumed by fire.... If you hear the flattering call of the god Kimnara or the kalavinka bird, regard them as merely the breeze blowing in your ears. Even though you see the beautiful face of Mao-ch'ing or Hsi-shih, consider that they are the morning dew obstructing your vision."

[cerberus253]

Well, i not sure how to ask but, maybe headcanons of hsi wu dating a owl hybrid s/o? Or maybe a albino s/o? i not sure T_T

Ooo, I like this idea! Since Hsi Wu's kingdom was canonically in Eastern USA, I'm going to use the Barn Owl in particular.

So, this could start from one of three ways: 1) Human became owl-like, 2) Owl became human-like, or 3) Human and Owl morphed together via some horrible experiment/accident/curse. I'm going to do the first one because reasons.

Anyway, I want to start by saying this: In Chinese myth and legends, normally animal-people are considered demons. Therefore, this Owl Hybrid S/O would technically be a demon. With that, and the starting option I chose, being said...

... the mere fact that the Owl was once human, but got turned into a demon, even if partially, makes them better than being 100% human in every way. Not better than Hsi Wu himself, but still better than a human.

Yeah, Drago is part human (according to my headcannon of him), but this human was cursed to be one, not made from some gross biological experiment.

Fun Facts about Owls: Their hearing is one of the greatest in the animal kingdom, they are silent fliers (meaning they make little to no sound while flying), and although their eyes are sensitive to light, they have great sight.

Originally a suspicious character taken in due to curiosity, Hsi Wu informed his siblings about the human cursed to be a demon, saying there may be more out there. He was told to study this one.

This "being captured" thing, and Hsi Wu being the Owl's warden, allowed them to interact with one another, crafting a bond. This bond would get stronger, and their "warden-ward" relationship would evolve into something else.

Hsi Wu is cheeky, mischievous, crafty, manipulative, and a bully. He can also be patient and/or sadistic when needed.

If the Demon Sorcerers were to find someone they really really really like, like romantically or even sensually (different from sexual), they would keep them locked away in their palace, away from prying, envious, or aggressive eyes. They would either be bound to a guarded room, or even a cage, to make sure nobody unwanted came in, nor the S/O could get out.

Although the S/O is treasured by them dearly, this treasure should be grateful for being genuinely cared about by a great and powerful Demon Sorcerer. Therefore doting, gifts, and passion are to be earned by being a good little boy/girl and doing as you're told, or pleasing them enough.

(this is going to be a long one, chat)

They'll gift the finest foods, the finest apparel, the finest entertainment, etc, but physical freedom was a hard no. Like, demon-demon relationships are more equal, but when it comes to demon-not demon, the demon will automatically see the other as something they own.

Initially Hsi Wu kept the Owl in a giant birdcage within his quarters to keep an eye on them, but as his feelings grew, he had a more beautiful and comfortable cage made for them. Shiny, new, and fancy bars, lots of comfy pillows and blankets, and hanging plants and decor.

Cruel teasing would be the most common way Hsi Wu would express interest in someone. Getting on their nerves to the point of being a nuisance is a sure way to make someone memorable, so he does it to make sure he stays in his special interest's mind.

Will call them names like, "Bird-brain," "Feather Face," "Beak Freak," "Pellet Pelter," and "Gizzard Girl/Boy" ("Harpy" if female).

Often he would purposefully get the Owl agitated, ruin their feathers in some horrible way, or simply pluck them out when least expected.

Hsi Wu just finds it entertaining to watch them get flustered and knowing that he did it, but if someone else were to do it to them, he would be pissed and want them tortured, or even executed if they made the Owl cry. That's when you know he isn't being mean because he actually hates his ward, but he actually cares about them to some degree.

He likes to mess up their feathers because he enjoys watching them meticulously clean and preen them. Seeing them work so diligently on making the feathers more comfortable, and pretty, on their body is something Hsi Wu is entertained by in an adoring way.

The plucking is done because, yes, it is annoying, but also Hsi Wu likes to add them to his collection of hanging decor above his bedchambers. He may not be an artist, but he likes to make his own pieces with the Owl's feathers in expression of admiration and desire.

Now, just because Hsi Wu mostly keeps his Owl in a cage does not mean he never lets them out. He only lets them out if he wants to, or they beg in such a pitiful yet beautiful way that he kind of feels bad for letting his treasure rot away in a, albeit beautiful, prison.

Being a creature of flight, the Owl and Hsi Wu would definitely bond over flying. Playing chase, jumping through clouds, weaving through tall buildings, and trying to out-fly/maneuver the other. Hsi Wu may fly faster and glide more easily, but the Owl has better agility. Both of them can maneuver quite well in the air, dependent on the wings they possess.

With this being said, the Owl may be able to jump Hsi Wu in the air, but Hsi Wu could out fly them. However, Hsi Wu could easily catch up to them, but the Owl would be able to dodge his pounces easily. Speed vs Skill when playing in the air.

These flying sessions usually start with casual "follow the leader," but will eventually lead to an dynamic aerial dance, or a mischievous chase. A mischievous chase always happens one way or another because Hsi Wu can't help himself not getting playful, especially when he sees his Owl silently yet elegantly fly through the crisp air <3

Hsi Wu may not be the best looking nor the most refined in character, but he can recognize beauty when he sees it.

I can see Hsi Wu collecting colorful, glistening, and shiny things like a crow. His kingdom would be decorated with flags that flap in the wind, hanging glass-work, and the occasional chime (not high pitched loud ones, but more along the lines of bone and wood chimes, maybe small bells). Since the Owl was taken in by Hsi Wu, they also gained the habit of collecting these things.

Most of the hanging decor would be made by servants, judged by Hsi Wu to be hanged or tossed out, his favorites going into his quarters. Of course, all the ones that his Owl makes are his favorite, so he would demand he be given every single one they make so he can look and admire them.

Normally when the Owl needs materials, there is plenty to go through from previous scavenges, or offerings, from humans. If a certain piece of material isn't available, Hsi Wu would make humans go looking for it.

Although wearing too much impacts flight, Hsi Wu likes to see his Owl wearing decorative, colorful jewelry while on the ground. He just loves to look and stare at them, knowing that nobody will ever have anything as exquisite! He even has some paintings of them around the Tower, all decorated and lounging seductively on an imperial bed. It's more for capturing their beauty and showing off to others than for personal reasons.

However, sometimes Hsi Wu will allow his Owl to go out away from his Tower Palace, but only if they are accompanied by his most trusted gargouille underlings. They are not allowed to be out past sunset, less they seek punishment.

Time passes, bonds strengthen, feelings deepen, and Hsi Wu lets his Owl roam outside of their cage. At first their limits were only his chambers, but then eventually it was extended to the Tower, then outside of the Tower, but never further than the eye can see.

Going past the horizon and being out at night is when Hsi Wu accompanies his Owl, whether it be for moonlit flights or nightly hunts. Speaking of the latter, Hsi Wu loves to see his Owl in their prey's blood, soaking their white and brown feathers in reds. They'll definitely need a bath when they get home, but right now it's delightful.

This is when more physical affection was given to the Owl.

Hsi Wu enjoys watching his Owl bathe, giving them a nice large pool with glistening water and soaps of their favorite smells. Normally Hsi Wu would bathe alone, but since after developing more sensual feelings for his Owl, he's been wanting them to bathe together.

While yes, Hsi Wu does like to be washed and cleaned by his Owl, relishing how they stroke his wings, feel his arms, and massage his legs, he mostly fancies to wash them. He himself may feel a sort of pleasure from their touch, but when he touches the Owl, they react more strongly. The Owl leans into Hsi Wu's touch, sighing with pleasure as he gently scrubs them clean, jolting when he teasingly squeezes them a little too hard. When cleaning their face, Hsi Wu would cup it into his claws, squishing their face a bit to get them to giggle. It's not that Hsi Wu enjoys doing these things, he just likes to do these things to his Owl because he takes pleasure in knowing that he is the one to make the Owl act and feel this way, making them his <3

However, Hsi Wu is never passionate for too long due to his mischievous nature. Technically this behavior leads to the romantic bits, but I did this out of order. Anyway, gotta play in the water because it’s fun! Splashing each other, probably got some pool noodles to wack each other, sneaking up to the other underwater and scaring them, trying to pull the other under with them, that sort of stuff. The Owl would definitely be more slow and clunky in the water, due to the feathers, and Hsi Wu would be a but faster due to the lack of that sort of stuff.

I can see, if Hsi Wu is in a romantic mood, putting flowers in the water and “setting the mood” for a nice passionate evening, whether it be for bathing and cuddling or…well, we’ll get to that (I see the Demons as asexual, but not all of them are repulsed by sex).

Originally sleeping with the feathers he’d pluck from them, as well as other soft things in his nest, Hsi Wu went to sleeping with the entirety of his Owl. Oh they were so warm and soft, perfect for a cold-blooded lizard like himself! Being held tightly, the Owl would wrap their feathered wings around him, enveloping his body and wings in their affectionate embrace.

I could picture them dancing together, just the two of them. Tango and Bachata if they’ll feelings good, Waltz if they’re feeling romantic, and Rock n Roll and Jive if they’ll feeling silly. Hsi Wu would be against his Owl to dance for other people unless it’s to make people jealous that they don’t have this gorgeous looking owl-man/lady at their side, making them happy.

I can especially see them do aerial dancing, like those aerial mating dances some birds do, or those scenes in How to Train Your Dragon 3 with Toothless and the Light Fury (both in-movie and deleted scene). I’m not sure how to describe dynamic flying in the form of dancing, so image them diving and spiraling together and flying side by side, weaving in and out of each other, holding hands and claws if they’re close enough. I dunno :V

Hsi Wu has seen humans kiss, and he knows why they do it, but fails to understand it. Well, until the Owl showed up and he bonded with them, establishing a deep relationship together. Knowing they were once human, and do express retained behaviors, he tries to kiss them.

It was funny how he initially did it. He frustratingly grabbed his Owl's face, squishing their cheeks tightly, then shoved his face into theirs, pressing his mouth against their beak. Technically he kissed the tip of their "mouth" (if you know owl anatomy, their beak is actually a very small part of their whole mouth, which is hidden under face feathers), so he pulled his head back and tried again. His mouth got pinched.

They'll just have to deal with Hsi Wu kissing their beak and the Owl nuzzling said beak on his face, especially his cheeks.

Despite Hsi Wu's Demon Sorcerer blood, he gets rather soft and mushy when it comes to affection and sweet talk, but only if it's from someone he loves and it's in private. In public, one can tell Hsi Wu and his S/O are A Thing by how close they get with each other, how they look at one another, and the kissing, but no one will ever see him fall to the floor, blushing from the intense nuzzling done by his S/O.

When this happens, he just lets them do their thing while he lays there with a big grin and red face, enjoying the intense physical affection.

Now, if his Owl is bigger than Hsi Wu, he would not refuse to be completely wrapped up in them. Cuddling and sleeping, Hsi Wu would use his Owl as a body pillow, blanket, and sleeping bag. He doesn't like being squished by his siblings, nor his enemies, but by his Owl, he will melt into their soft and warm body, placing his head under their chin, wrapping their arms around his neck, shoulders, and chest, and their wings holding both of them like a giant cocoon. Cue the kisses and nuzzling~

But what do they actually like about each other? Well, despite Hsi Wu's sadistic and manipulative personality, he is also very protective, funny, entertaining, witty, caring, observant, smart, somewhat agreeable, lively, thoughtful, dutiful, loyal, has an eye for art, playful, curious, and passionate. The more positive and nice traits don't show to strangers, will sometimes show for family members, and will often show for his S/O. He will be mean and bully, but actual harm and endangerment his will not allow his Owl to be in.

For the Owl, well, I don't want to limit personality factors for daydreamers reading this, but they are at least kind, observant, morally grey, silly, playful, cheeky, curious, agreeable, caring, smart, passionate, protective, artsy, shy/quiet, manipulative (towards others unless it's romantic/sensual/sexual), dependent [on Hsi Wu], and individualistic.

They often bounce off of each others' personalities/demeanor when together and interacting with the public, often looking at each other like in "The Office" or acting like those characters that are way too in sync with each other. It's impressive, but kind of intimidating.

Loud Gremlin + Quiet but Sexy. Chaotic with a Soft Spot + Normal but also Chaos Enabler. Diva + Chill Dude. Annoying Bastard + Stoic and Calm. Says They're Almighty + The Actual Almighty One. Loud Idiot + The Only One Who Can Put Up With Them.

Now, about sexual stuff, because the Owl was once human, and still has urges...

I don't see the Demon Sorcerers interested in sex at all, some may even be repulsed by it. Can they actually have sex? I have no idea to be honest, but since none of them have children, aside from Shendu, who had a son he could use as a personal fail-safe, I don't think they are sexually active. Especially since the options are humans, animals, or lesser demons, they probably developed asexuality due to the lack of options (wow just like me for real). There could have been other high-class demons other than the main eight (nine if you include Drago), but there is literally no info on that. Well, the Oni exist, but Shendu imprisoned them so he, and probably his siblings, saw them as beneath them, so that may be something.

With that being said, if they aren't repulsed by sex, nothing says they won't do the act to satisfy/torture their S/O!

Hsi Wu was repulsed by the idea, but once he found out he could bring his Owl to their knees, moaning, breathing heavily, and begging for his touch, he changed his mind.

Biology Lesson: Male Squamata (lizards and snakes) have two penises (hemipenis). Therefore, if Hsi Wu does have reproduction organs, they would most likely be external and be a hemipenis. Owls have a cloaca, which is a hole for sexual reproduction and waste ejection. However, the Owl S/O here was once human, therefore their genitalia could be an internal cloaca or an external vagina/penis. Your choice. Either way, Hsi Wu could stick his hemipeen inside of them. Now You Know.

If female, would the Owl have boobs, since she was once human? Your choice. Does she lay eggs or give live birth? Your choice. Personally, I would choose remaining but reduced fat tissue in the breasts (no mammary glands due to weird mutant genetic) and yes to the laying eggs thing.

If male, would the owl have a penis, since he was once human? Your choice. Personally, I would say yes but it is reduced due to the weird mutant genetics.

Anyway, Hsi Wu would grope the boobies and be very playful, maybe even a little aggressive, with them. They're just fun to squish, alright? Warm, soft, and squishy, fleshy stress relievers XD

If the Owl was bigger than Hsi Wu (size and/or weight, fat or muscle), yes, he would squish them ALL OVER and delight in their giggles and laughter.

Now, like I said, I think the Demons Sorcerers are asexual. I'm not even sure if they'd feel sexual pleasure if touched down there. Might be a little, but you'd have to get them aroused, which their desires are nowhere centered around being such. They'd have a low very low/non-existent libido (sex drive/desire) and a low sexual arousal.

I'll cut to the chase here: Hsi Wu would be the one to pleasure his Owl and would only have sex with them if they wanted it and the Demon was willing to do it. The Owl-demon can get aroused in ways familiar to us, but the Demon Sorcerer could only get aroused after being sexually pleasured for a while.

Anyway, Hsi Wu would be doing the usual: Holding them close and cradling them in his arms and wings, really taking in their smell, their touch, their heartbeat, etc. He would definitely be seductively talking dirty and sweet nothings in their ear, listening to any and all sounds and movement his Owl made to know if what he is doing is working.

Would call the Owl things like his 'toy,' his "Pretty Little Birdie," his "dolly", and "darling," as well as, "miscreant," "scoundrel," "harlot," etc. Common bird pet-names would be "my owl," "starling," "dove," and "chickadee."

Hsi Wu would also often tell them to coo/chirp/chitter for him, not only because it's such a sweat and tender sound, but also barn owl screeches will hurt his ears. He has heard them screech a number of times, but it was in response to being threatened and in danger. Trust me, when Hsi Wu heard those noises, he never forgot them. Especially when his Owl was in danger far away, he flew as fast as he could to protect them. He still has nightmares about it.

Biting, clawing, teasing, and overstimulating would be his torture methods for them; marking them up to prove they're his. I can see him being into bondage (on the Owl, not him), preferring they be wrapped in silk or satin. Hsi Wu would put them up in embarrassing and submissive posses while he pleasurably tortures them for his delight and their arousal. Eventually, with enough pitiful and sweet begging, he'd unwrap his gift with cutting claws and piercing fangs. Not in a feral way, but a passionate seductive way.

Alternatively, Hsi Wu does want his Owl to pleasure him sometimes, he just forgets because he just loves being the dominant and controlling person in bed/nest. Like I said before, he doesn't have much of a sexual desire, but he does have a desire to be pleased, in power, and seeing his Owl serve him. Therefor, he would occasionally allow them to pleasure themselves with him, but not before watching them beg and whine like a puppy up against his chest and crotch. Seeing them fawning so is hard to say no to. So yes, he would also enjoy watching them on him, using his hemipeen as they wish, saying how pathetically adorable they look while needing to rely on him for this humiliating display.

The physical pleasure for him takes time to rise, but the emotional pleasure is rather fast due to the faces and noises his Owl makes. The cooing and pained yet satisfied look on their face in the act of hedonism is enough to keep him going.

Aftercare: Cuddling and saying what a good girl/boy the Owl has been. Hsi Wu would call a servant over for a meal and beverage, but when they return the pair are fast asleep. They'll wake back up when the meal is cold and Hsi Wu would demand it be re-heated.

*unholy screaming* Alright, that was long. I swear if anyone else asks me headcannons about the Demon Sorcerers in a relationship with someone, I will beat you with cardboard tubes.

Okay but really, if anyone does, I might be picky with specific relationships and with whom. Like I said before, if I don't respond immediately to your Ask, assume I'm working on answering it. If I do respond quickly, it's most likely that I'm denying the Ask. Very rarely I will completely ignore Asks. If I do not respond after a full week, your Ask must have been lost, so Ask again or privately Message me about it.

2 and 11 for Scott? 😁🌈💙

Oooh, Scotty boy, OK I got this... I think I'd have to answer them both in one answer, because they both kinda roll into one thing.

My favourite queer ship for Scott would have to be with an OC, I can't see him with anyone in the show. I see him having more of an exploration time with someone that started out as a bunk mate and best friend in the Air Force, but, after a particularly dangerous life or death situation, they got a little too close and realised that they might actually like each other as more than friends.

I could see Scott as someone that would be very much a fish out of water, or in his case a bird out of the sky maybe. I doubt it's ever something he's thought about or experienced before, so it would all be completely new and uncharted territory.

I don't think he'd be uncomfortable with it, or with the thought of being with another man, but it would be surprising for him as it's not something that's ever come up before. I don't think he's ever looked at another man and seen him as attractive, but I love the idea of a slow burn realisation thing with him.

Like he starts out as friends, he has no issue with the fact that his bunk mate is gay, he's not one of those people that feels immediately threatened by it at all. He'd treat him exactly as he does his other friends and brothers, he'd look out for him, go to bat for him and support him.

But slowly he'd notice little things like how nice hsi aftershave smells, or how his hair catches the light, how his back curves... But he wouldn't actually recognise it as attraction until something pushed him into the situation where a kiss feels natural and then he'd like "oooh, that's what I've been feeling..."

He'd run with it, because he's Scott and he's the most self assured person in the world, when he sets his mind on something nothing much changes it.

Yep, that's what I see.

Thanks for the ask x

How do you feel about the new Helluva Boss trailer?

Thanks for asking! I do have a lot of thoughts :D

as you probably know- im not exactly the biggest helluva boss fan since the first episode of season two aired. It kinda spoiled my appetite for the show and it hasn't really been enticed since.

BUT THE TRAILER???

I'm actually pretty interested as it seems like the story being built up from season one and the first part of season two seems to be coming to fruition.

Like I see that we're actually gonna get development in a lot of relationships like Verosika and Blitz mother, That and Stolitz which I have my own feelings about but I do believe that they could pull it off with what we've been teased with in the trailer.

With the Cherubs meeting the agents up above, Elsa bird coming into play, Octavia getting more and more involved in the so-called family buisness and my bOY MAMMON MY BELOVED

(he looks hella good in that fit btw)

This is the chance for HB to fix the issues I had with the first part of season two, Like if we get those addressed with a hella good finale on top of that? Golden, May redeem season two in my eyes.

Like if they get everything in order like the Girls Character Development, The villains being somewhat shallow, Character depictions etc etc

I feel like it could genuinely turn out to be a good ending to the season!

AND DAMN AM I NOT A SUCKER FOR GHOST HUNTING EPISODES- One of which I see may or may not be coming up? The receptionist there is also making me intrigued like I'm wondering what his deal is.

Like judging by the way he transforms, He's probably a demon in disguise from whatever ring my girls Glitz and Glam came from, I forget. This episode here tho is probably the one im excited for the most!

LIKE THE PLOT IS REVVING UP? Like damn this might be what redeems HB in my eyes, If they're able to pull off the landing on these episodes I might just need to get back into the fandom.

That is- If they are able to stick the landing of course. I really feel like this could possibly be what gets the show back on track, And after watching Hazbin Hotel I know that Viv has the potential to write real good plotlines, I just hope it extends to HB now too!

So yeah! I actually have a lot of hope for the next few episodes and am cautiously optimistic for what t

that and-

I SAW FILM BIRD AND LOOK I AINT A FURRY BUT I MEAN-

ITS FILM BIRD.

(fuvcking gimme requests for film bird once hsi episode comes out i love him and we havent even met himl yet)

(Main body of the article below here)

The Chinese Imperial Air Force (CIAF; Chinese: 中華帝國空軍; Wade–Giles: Chung-hua Ti-kuo K'ung-chün), also referred to as the Chinese Air Force (中華空軍) or the Imperial Air Force (帝國空軍), is the principal aerial service of the Great Ch'ing Empire, a part of the Chinese Imperial Military along with the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Army. The CIAF was officially established on 25 December 1929 and it is composed of five branches: aviation, ground-based air defense, radar, Airborne Corps and other support elements.

The development of the CIAF began with the creation of the Pei-yang Army Flying Corps in 1910, which flew French biplanes in reconaissance and bombing operations against rebels. With the splintering of the Pei-yang Army in 1916, elements of the Flying Corps entered the service of the various warlords vying for control of the government. During the First World War, ten bombers were shipped to Shang-hai for the Peking Government's use in dislodging the German Navy from Kiautschou Bay. The Flying Corps would participate in the Southern Expedition using primarily the Avro Avenger fighter aircraft and the Avro Aldershot heavy bomber provided by the United Kingdom, and in 1929, with the warlords brought together or defeated, the Air Staff was created as a separate branch of the military. The UK also assisted with the expansion of the Chinese aerospace industry during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Changes in the organization of the CIAF followed by modernization programs in the 1980s and increased technology development in the 21st century resulted in the J-20 stealth multirole fighter, the first of its kind for China.

The Air Force's mission is to secure the objectives of the Imperial Defence Council which are to "provide necessary security and defense of the Empire and to support the Government's international obligations". The highest-ranking military officer in the Air Force is the Chief of the Air Staff, who exercises supervision over Air Force units, while the IDC assigns Air Force components to unified combatant commands. Some units are also ceremonially affiliated with the Eight Banners, but since 1931 have been functionally integrated into the civilian command structure. The Helicopter Command contains most of the rotary-wing aircraft of the CIAF. Most of the air force is based in Mainland China, but some units do serve on foreign operations (principally over Manipur and Bukhara) or at long-established foreign bases (Havana, Ream, Djibouti, and Gorno-Badakhshan). Although the CIAF is the principal Chinese air power arm, the Imperial Navy's Fleet Air Corps and the Army Air Corps also operate armed aircraft.

History: (Further information: link to page "Aviation in China")

Origins:

Today's Chinese Imperial Air Force (CIAF) traces its roots back to August 10, 1910 when the government authorized the creation of the Army Flying Corps in an effort to improve intelligence and gain the upper hand on insurrections. On the same day, construction began on Peking Nan-yüan Airport as part of a program to modernize national infrastructure. Initiated in the wake of the Boxer Protocol in 1901, the Keng-tzu New Policies were ordered by the Empress Dowager Tz'ŭ-hsi to reform government bureaucracy along with the military, and by the start of the Hsuan-t'ung reign a group of preparatory departments had been organized for experimentation with new technology and administrative systems. In 1903 an imperial edict expanded the Wu-wei Corps to 36 divisions, creating the Pei-yang Army, in 1905 the Imperial Examinations were abolished, and in 1907 a new law code and judicial system were rolled out. That same year, the tax code was reformed and the rail system was nationalized, which greatly helped the empire's finances but caused significant unrest as well.

With the death of Jung-lu in 1903, General of the Right Division Yüan Shih-k'ai became commander of the Pei-yang Army. His role in the 1898 coup d'état against the Kuang-hsü Emperor made him many enemies, and when the empress dowager and the emperor died within a day of each other in 1909, he was forced to resign by Prince Ch'ün and return to his home village ostensibly for health reasons. In spite of this, Yüan remained in communication with his associates in the army. In the wake of the February 1910 Keng-hsü Army Uprising, he authorized the Pei-yang Army to found a flight school at Nan-yüan to train a group of eight pilots to fly reconnaisance using Cauldron Type D biplanes purchased from France, improving the army's ability to respond. In early 1911, the Aviation Research Institute was founded.[6]

Warlord Era and Yüan Ch'en:

(Photo labeled "Nan-yüan Air Force Academy drillmasters in front of Avro aircraft") (Photo labeled "Voisin V in Shang-hai")

In 1911, a major popular uprising began in Canton while another army mutiny occurred at Wu-ch'ang. In a panic, Empress Dowager Lung-yü convinced Yüan to come out of retirement and lead the war effort in exchange for the position of Prime Minister and the final adoption of the Hsuan-t'ung Constitution. The rebellion was crushed by the end of 1912, and the T'ung-meng-hui (TMH) revolutionary society was forced to flee to Japan once again with numerous dead. With the south pacified, Yüan feared he would no longer be of use to the Ch'ing court. In spite of the bureaucrats' protests, he brought his army into the capital in order to protect himself and his allies from execution, essentially holding the court hostage. For five years, he and his majority Han chinese cabinet ruled the country.

Reasoning that China desired a new Han-ruled dynasty, Yüan revised the constitution to make himself a dictator before announcing plans to seize the throne as the Hung-hsien Emperor of Great Ch'en, allowing his army to plunder Manchu estates as northern Chinese cities descended into racial violence. The Ch'ing court fled to Gan-su, where support for Han rule was lower, under the protection of Ma An-liang and Shaan-hsi governor Ch'ien Neng-hsün. With the divided country now in civil war, many of Yüan's closest supporters abandoned him, and the solidarity of his Beiyang clique of military protégés dissolved. The Hung-hsien Emperor was opposed by not only the Ch'ing and the minorities, but far more importantly by his subordinate military commanders, who believed that his usurpation would allow him to rule without depending on the support of the military.

A coalition of governors and officers led by An-hui governor Liang Tun-yen launched the Imperial Protection War against him, officially in the name of the Hsuan-t'ung Emperor, while the Air Corps rebelled as well and dropped bombs on the Forbidden City. Yüan's health continued to decline, and his death in 1916 paved the way for the return of K'ang Yu-wei and other anti-Yüan reformist exiles. The Prince Ch'ing Cabinet retook control of the capital, denouncing Yüan and purging his allies, while government authority was greatly damaged. Provinces broke away and the TMH returned in 1917 to start a Han-nationalist insurgency in Hunan.

The fall of Yüan Shih-k'ai created a power vacuum and fractured the army. Fearing for their lives, many of the southern Pei-yang generals revolted and took control of the provinces as military governors. Minister of War Wang Shih-chen, nominally in charge of the Pei-yang Army, abolished it and reorganized the loyalist forces into the Chinese Imperial Military. Expanding the airbases at Nan-yüan and Ta hsiao-ch'ang, Marshal Wang was able to acquire more machines from Britain and France when the new army attacked the German Leased Territory of Kiautschou Bay in 1917 and China was drawn into the First World War.

As part of the allied Operation Asher, ten Voisin V pusher bombers were produced in France and shipped to Shang-hai. In spite of having defeated the 1914 allied attack, by this time the garrison was low on supplies and the Chinese aircraft proved devastating to German morale during the Second Siege of Tsing-tao. An avid aviation enthusiast, the Hsuan-tung Emperor himself also took great interest in the development of the Air Corps, and when he assumed direct rule in 1924 he personally invested large amounts of his constitutional subsidy into it.

First United Front:

During the late 1920s, the Ch'ing Imperial Government formed the first united front with the liberal T'ung-meng Hui (TMH) party against competing warlords in a bid to reunite a fractionalized China, combining the liberal Wu-han Government with the Imperial Assembly. In this period, various airplanes were purchased and deployed by warlords in their struggle for power until nominal Chinese reunification in 1929 following the Southern Expedition which saw the use of Avro Aldershot heavy bombers to inflict serious damage on the infrastructure of several provinces in support of the government offensives. That year, the CIAF was designated as an independent branch of the armed forces. The eighteen graduate pilots of the military flight school included nine republican and nine monarchist pilots who were sent to the Russian Federation for two years of advanced flight training under the tutelage of the more experienced Russian Air Force. Two of the imperial graduates, Kuo Tzu-han and Sung Chien-yü, continued to serve in the Russian Air Force for five years until, in September 1928, they returned to Ti-hua as instructors.

At the same time, Tsai-chen the fifth Prince Ch'ing established the Bureau of Aeronautics in 1920. Subsequently, the organization continued to develop, and successively established an aircraft factory, an aviation command, and a new aviation school in Hsi-an. In May 1927, the Aviation Department of the Ministry of War was changed to the Aviation Committee of the Defense Council of the Imperial Government. By 1929, the government's aviation force was officially independent from the Army General Command and became an independent service.

Second Sino-Japanese War:

(Photo labelled "Self-developed Chinese transport aircraft during the Battle of Ch'ang-sha")

Following the abolition of many of their social privileges in the Hsin-wei Reform Act, many Banner families experienced poverty and violence. In response to perceived neglect, they became disaffected with the Hsuan-t'ung Emperor. Some sided with the northeastern Pei-yang Army generals of the Fêng-tʻien Clique, while some sought support from Imperial Japan.

A minor dispute known as the Wan-pao-shan incident between Han and Korean farmers occurred on July 1, 1931. The issue was highly sensationalized in the Imperial Japanese and Korean press, and used for considerable propaganda effect to increase anti-Chinese sentiment in the Empire of Japan. Believing that a conflict in Manchuria would be in the best interests of Japan, Kwantung Army Colonel Seishirō Itagaki devised a plan to provoke Japan into invading Manchuria by setting up a false flag incident for the pretext of invasion. The Independent Garrison Unit of the 29th Infantry Regiment (which guarded the South Manchuria Railway) placed explosives near the tracks, but far enough away to do no real damage.

On the morning of September 19, two artillery pieces installed at the Mukden officers' club opened fire on the Chinese garrison nearby, in response to the alleged Chinese attack on the railway. Chang Hsueh-liang's small air force was destroyed, and his soldiers fled their destroyed Pei-ta-ying barracks, as five hundred Japanese troops attacked the Chinese garrison of around seven thousand. The Chinese troops were no match for the experienced Japanese troops. By the evening, the fighting was over, and the Japanese had occupied Mukden at the cost of five hundred Chinese lives and only two Japanese lives, thus starting the greater invasion of Manchuria. By 1932, most of the region was under Japanese control and the Empire of Manchukuo was created, while a young member of the Hitara clan was enthroned in Ch'ang-ch'un as the K'ang-te Emperor.

The CIAF immediately dispatched combat aircraft to the Hung-ch'iao Aerodrome during the January 28th Incident of 1932, and aerial skirmishes occurred for the first time between China and the Imperial Japanese. In February 1932, US Reserve Lt. Robert McCawley Short, who was transporting armed Chinese aircraft, shot down an IJN aircraft on February 19, 1932, and downed another on February 22 before he was killed (he was posthumously raised to the rank of colonel in the CIAF). During the early days of China's war of resistance against the Japanese invasion, the Imperial Air Force participated in several battles, including attacking Imperial Japanese Navy warships along the Yangtze River and supporting the Battle of Shang-hai. By this time, the Imperial Air Force's main fighter models were the Curtiss Hawk II and Hawk III fighters. On August 14, 1937, Japanese Imperial Navy bombers bombed Hang-chou Chien-ch'iao Airport, but was defeated by the CIAF; therefore, August 14 was designated as Air Force Day by the Imperial Government. In May 1938, the CIAF dispatched two B-10 bombers to Japan to drop leaflets.

By the middle of the war, intelligence units of the Imperial Japanese Navy cracked the radio codes of the Chinese army, putting the Air Force under attack. In the middle and late stages of the Second Sino-Japanese War, the addition of Chennault and other foreign pilots, as well as the support provided by the United States after joining the Allies, restructured the combat power of the CIAF and participated in the Hsin-chu Air Attack, and air raids on Japan. After the end of World War II, in June 1946, the Aviation Committee of the Military Committee of the Imperial Government was changed to the General Command of the Air Force.

Chinese Civil War:

In January 1941, as intensifying clashes between imperial and TMH forces ended the second united front against invading Japanese forces, the government's Imperial Defense Council (IDC) established the Air Force Engineering School with Kuo as commandant and Sung as head instructor. In May 1944, just over a year before the Japanese surrender to Allied forces, the IDC established an Aviation Section in Hsi-an with Kuo as its director and Sung as deputy director. Two years later in May 1946 and after the withdrawal of Japanese troops, the IDC established the Northeast Old Aviation School in Kirin. By 1949 the Aviation Section of the IDC had 560 trained personnel (125 pilots and 435 ground support specialists), purchased 435 aircraft from the Russian Federation, acquired 115 republican aircraft, and operated seven military flight schools.

During the Second Civil War between the T'ung-meng Hui and the Imperial Government from 1946 to 1949, the Air Corps of the Republic of China participated in combat support and air strikes against the CIAF on the mainland and around the Tai-wan Strait. In October of the same year, the ACROC assisted in stopping the advance of the Chinese Imperial Army at the Battle of Ku-ning-t'ou in Quemoy, and in April 1949, the Air Corps retreated to the former Japanese colony of Tai-wan along with other government departments of the ROC. In October 1952, Marshal Chou Ên-lai and the battle-hardened army of the Chinese Communist Party broke with the T'ung-meng Hui and launched a successful revolution with the help of Indigenous Taiwanese, abolishing the National Assembly of the TMH and founding the People's Republic of China; the world's second socialist state after India. The ACROC sided with the revolution and became the PRCAAF. As relations soured between the left liberal governments of NATO and the right authoritarian governments of the Eurasian Pact, the United States intervened on behalf of the PRC and preserved the island's self-government. There have been at least 11 air battles in the area since 1952.

The real opportunity to obtain a large number of aircraft came from the Northeast Alliance Aviation School established in 1946 after the end of the Anti-Japanese War. At this time, the Imperial Government seized Japanese-made aircraft, trained pilots, and received a large number of American-made aircraft from the surrendered ROC Air Force in southeast China and Nanking during the civil war. On March 17, 1949, personnel were transferred from the Northeast Aviation School to establish the "Imperial Defence Council Aviation Bureau" in Peking. The director Ch'ang Ch'ien-k'un (the executive vice president of the Northeast Aviation School), under the Combat Education Department, Aeronautical Engineering Department, Civil Aviation Department, Information Section and Supply Section, staffed 64 people. In May 1949, the Navigation Management Office, the Secretariat, and the Imperial Office were added, and the number was expanded to 172 people. The major military regions have since successively established aviation divisions.

Notes:

While they are strange bedfellows, the strategic importance of Tai-wan Island was sufficient for the US to accept the existence of the PRC; the start of a similar reconciliation as began in the 1970s during Detente.

In this timeline, the White Movement won the Russian Civil War. Specifically, the Provisional All-Russian Government or "Ufa Directory" of Alexander Kolchak defeated the Bolsheviks in 1919, retaking Moscow and Petrograd partially with the help of a Qing expeditionary force which aided the Basmachi rebels in Central Asia and helped hold sections of the Trans-Siberian Railway alongside the Czechoslovak Legion. Kolchak was assassinated by a monarchist in 1920, which began a second phase of the civil war. The conflict ended in 1922 when the Ufa Directory combined with the Samara Government to form a federal republic of Russia dominated mostly by Kadets and Right SRs.

Primary Stage Socialism is still very young in this world and revolutionary parties have only been successful in the Global South. During the alternate Cold War, the western bloc was primarily fighting the Eurasian Pact of the Greater White Movement and gave military assistance to any allies it could find from the PRC to India to Iraq. Only after the main phase of the Cold War ended did the US and NATO begin to turn against these countries.
