#and of course chef is a he/him lesbian

[funkily]

just so we're on the same page not a single character from wkm was straight

[deconstructthesoup]

What's been in my head lately is a Fantasy High pirate AU. Not a Leviathan AU, an actual pirate AU.

Bear with me---

Adaine is a bookish princess of a kingdom by the sea, and while she has everything from an outsider's perspective, she's neglected by her parents as the second child and is incredibly lonely. Her only real friend is Kristen, who's a representative of the church of Helio and is kind of Adaine's unofficial lady-in-waiting, and both of them are fairly sheltered... until one fateful day, while the two are enjoying a small day of freedom, they get captured by a motley crew of pirates.

Fabian is the captain and the son of the fabled Old Bill, and he's been making his own mark on the seven seas via sheer charisma and chaos. He's trying to build up a reputation of being a ruthless thief and murderer like his father was, but it's pretty plain to see that he cares a lot more than he lets on... like, for instance, upon realizing that Adaine's parents don't care enough about her to pay for ransom, he immediately offers her a spot on his crew. And once Kristen has a very public crisis of faith, she's granted a spot, too.

The other members of Fabian's crew are as follows:

Riz, his first mate and best friend. He's a son of two prolific spies from the goblin kingdom, and he initially wanted to take down the vast network of pirates across the world, but quickly changed gears once he realized that working for the monarchy was a lot more morally corrupt. He kind of acts as the voice of reason, while simultaneously being one of the most feral members of the crew.

Ragh, the ship's chef and the other first mate---Fabian couldn't decide between him and Riz. His mom used to be a pretty prolific pirate herself, and he and Fabian have known each other since they were kids... and, yeah, their relationship has changed from "best friends forever" to "work husbands" over the years. They have some good times.

Gorgug, the ship's resident gunner. He grew up in a family of blacksmiths, couldn't find a lot of honest work, and eventually got a steady position on Fabian's ship. He's happy to be here, he's happy to show off the fact that he's a beast in combat situations, and he's one of the most technically savvy members of the crew. Also, he's a surprisingly good listener.

Fig, the musician and "dark sorceress" of the ship. She used to be a traveling singer-slash-songwriter and used an elven disguise to blend in, but eventually decided "fuck it" and took on her true form as a free-spirited tiefling pirate who kicks ass, takes names, and curses anybody who badmouths her. She's great.

Tracker, the ship's surgeon. She was raised in the church of Helio before being bitten by a werewolf, after which she promptly left to learn under her uncle, who was a prolific pirate himself before he retired. Nowadays, she's learned the secrets of both witchcraft and medicine and made a name for herself as a skilled healer and fighter, and is pretty happy where she is.

Gertie, the ship's other chef and resident wildlife expert. She's definitely one of the most friendly members of the crew, and even though she butts heads with Fabian a lot, she's a pretty core part of the crew. And yeah, between her and Tracker, Kristen is definitely getting a big lesbian awakening.

There is, of course, still a version of Leviathan out there, and Ayda still lives there as a librarian... which is the reason why the crew regularly makes stops there, though getting more supplies is also a plus. Garthy is also there, along with Sandralynn and Jawbone (and Hallariel and Gilear, much to Fabian's displeasure). The Seven are also around---they're a fierce crew of pirates who have a bit of a friendly rivalry with Fabian's crew, though it's never escalated into outright battle.

— NEW LIKE MORNING DEW: sanji x reader

KINKTOBER DAY TWO: MASTURBATION ᥫ cw: nsfw, masturbation, praise, afab reader, dom/sub ᥫ wc: 1371 ★ this is a bit self-indulgent for me (i think a lot of the kinktober fics are) and ... this is ... probably the only fic that's somewhat based off my personal experience (embarrassed.) (im a virgin and also an asexual lesbian.) cross posted on ao3 — MINORS DNI! —

— A CHEF’S HANDS WERE HIS NUMBER ONE WEAPON.

[♡]: it was a principle sanji was taught as a kid working at the baratie, one that later grew to the meticulous habit of keeping his hands free of blemishes and injury. as a result of his care, he's quite skilled with his hands, able to switch from crushing pressure to just barely the ghost of a touch. so of course there were a few tricks sanji wanted to teach you.

"THAT'S IT, EASY NOW."

You whimper in response, cheeks flushing a bit brighter, embarrassed from the position you were in. You lay by the edge of the bed, your legs draped over it, spread wide and held in place by Sanji’s hands. He kneels in front of you, his lips pressing encouraging kisses on your inner thighs, his breath fanning against your skin. Blue eyes watch intently at your core, occasionally flicking upwards to meet yours in a loving and reassuring gaze.

“S-sanji…” You call, voice slightly shaky.

He quickly shushes you, pressing another kiss on your thigh, his thumbs smoothing over your skin. “You can do it. You can be good for me right, darling?” He coos, voice so sweet and patient, you couldn’t help but melt.

You nod with a pout, brows furrowed. Sanji only chuckles in response, kissing a bit higher, a bit closer to where you ache the most. You whimper when his lips don’t meet your cunt and he tuts you.

“Thought you said you wanted to learn these things, darling,” Sanji asks, his fingers drumming against you.

You lift your head up to look at him, frowning. “But… Can’t you do it?” You plead.

Sanji chuckles again. “You can’t learn if I keep doing things for me. And you said you can be good for me, yeah?” You open your mouth to speak but he cuts you off. “Now, push your fingers all the way down, near your ass hole.”

Flustered by his curtness, you do as he says, gently pushing your fingers down as he instructed. You shiver at the feel of your own fingers against your slit and Sanji smiles at your reaction. His thumbs go back to rubbing circles on your thighs, soothing you.

“That’s it, good job, darling. That was so good.” He punctuates the praise with kisses, eyes trained on the slick pooling at your entrance. Sanji licks his lips in anticipation. “Now—” his voice is a bit shaky “—bring ‘em back up to your clit. Ah, ah! No. darling.”

You whine, but your fingers instinctively freeze anyway. “Slowly, slowly, dear. That’s it. So good, darling. You’re doing so good.”

You whimper at the sensation, the featherlight touch barely pressing against your cunt, and at the way praise just seemed to casually roll off Sanji’s tongue. You gingerly repeat the process, letting your digits glide down your slit then slide back up, trying your hardest to keep as little pressure on yourself as possible since Sanji had instructed it.

His lips continue to kiss your thighs as he watches you work, eyes practically glued on the delicate movement of your fingers, studying the way your cunt twitches at each touch, memorizing the rise and fall of your chest.

He hums and leans a bit closer, enough that you feel his warm breath against your core. “Put your fingers on your clit for me, darling.” Sanji instructs, his voice slow, tender.

Almost trance-like, you nod drowsily, fingers shyly lifting off and pressing gentle on your clit. You hips buck at the sudden feeling, a soft whimper follows.

“That’s it. You’re doing so good,” Sanji coos as his hands move further upward, thumbs spreading your folds apart. “Could you circle around it for me, love? Slowly, just like earlier.”

You bite your lip, partly bracing yourself as you begin to very slowly and lightly trace circles on your clit. The sensation instantly has you moaning, a soft, shy moan you can’t help but let out as electric shocks shoot up your spine, setting your stomach aflutter.

Sanji watches a bit more intently now, drool leaking from the corners of his mouth from the mere sight of you touching yourself, that combined with how obedient you were being for him, the reactions you’d have from the slightest bit of stimulation, and the strong smell of your pussy. It caught him a bit off guard at first, not expecting his proximity to even let him get a whiff but, God, he was so close now, he could practically taste you off your smell alone. And hearing the luring squelching sounds of your cunt combined with your labored breaths and meak moans? It was driving him crazy. Sending the blood straight down to his dick.

“Keep going, darling… Doing so good— you’re so good for me.” Sanji praises, and if you focus on it enough, you can tell there’s some form of strain in his voice, some tension that’s about to snap and make him lose his mind.

Your fingers keep swirling around your clit, encouraged by Sanji’s sweet praise and enticed by the sparks of pleasure it gave you. There’s a languid moan that leaves Sanji’s lips as his nose brushes against your slit, the tip of it wetting from your juices, followed by a soft rustling of fabric from somewhere below Sanji.

With his free hand, he undoes his pants, pulling them and his boxers down just enough to free his rock hard cock. It takes all his restraint not to press his face any further into your cunt, not to stick his tongue out to lap up your sweetness and taste you on his lips. Another moan leaves his lips, it’s sticky heat fanning against your wetness, as he begins to slowly stroke himself.

“Love… stick your fingers in your cunt.” He instructs, his voice heavy, ridden with lust. “Two fingers inside you, please.”

There’s a meek noise that comes from your throat as you very carefully tread your fingers lower, the tips of them meeting your pulsing hole. You draw in a shaky breath, swallowing the saliva pooling in your mouth. You hear Sanji groan at the sight, the noise followed by some sort of plea he slurs too softly for you to comprehend. His hand on your cunt reaches up for yours, slowly guiding your digits to push past your entrance and dip deeper and deeper inside yourself. Your breath stutters when you go past your second knuckle, the feeling of your walls clamping around your fingers so very foreign to you.

Sanji’s face lifts slightly, lips pressing against the back of your hand. “Does it feel good, darling? You feel how warm you are?” He asks as he rests his cheek against your tight, eyes now looking up at you.

Hesitantly, you nod. “Yes…” You reply breathlessly, teeth catching your bottom lip. “S-sanji…”

“Shhh… I know, dear, I know.” He coos as his eyes follow the shape of your body back down to where your fingers disappear into your cunt. “Push ‘em a bit deeper for me? Can you do that?”

You nod again. Slowly, you move your fingers again, pressing them further and further inside yourself until you can’t see them anymore. Sanji straight up moans at the sight, the noise unabashed and deep-sounding, causing you to whimper in response. There’s the faintest sound of skin slapping against skin, and when you realize it’s the sound of his hand pumping his dick, your walls clench around your fingers, the sudden tightness catching you off guard, causing you to arch your back in surprise.

Sanji’s head jolts up at your sudden movement, worried you had hurt yourself. But he watches your eyebrows twitch and your lips curl into a pout. Then, it amazes him more than it surprises him, he notices your fingers twitch, the slightest movement of your hand telling him that deep inside you, your fingers are curling themselves, pressing against the gummy walls of your cunt. He stills, almost upright as he watches you carefully as your flushed cheeks slowly relax when you let out a deep exhale. He studies your body language, the tensing of your shoulders, the heaving of your chest, the wet parting of your lips. Sanji’s just about to ask you if you’re alright, if you want him to take over and just relax, when he hears it. First was the sharp, shaky breath you draw in, next is the distinct squelch of your fingers drawing out and pushing back inside of you.

He looks down, eyes meeting the shy, experimental way you thrust your fingers in and out of you, and he licks his lips hungrily. You were a fast learner.

[starpains]

A multiverse sorta fic where Anakin touches some holocron or whatevs (it’s always a holocron tho isn’t it) and gets thrown from AU to AU, all of them being Ewan McGregor’s movies/shows lol, but it’s Obi-Wan. So we’d get chef Obi-Wan, fashion designer Obi-Wan, mafia boss Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan and his clone (looking at you The Island for the DP porn lol), and more…

And you know, they either already are or end up falling for each other and fucking in every verse cause they’re star crossed lovers or sth.

Then, the last one he’s thrown into is the Kenobi show—his own verse after he fucked it all up—and Obi-Wan is looking at him like he’s seen a ghost in all his damaged, infinitely sad glory and Anakin fucking aches. They end up fucking, don’t even need to fall in love cause they already are, duh.

And then, the holocron is finally used up and he goes back to being in his early 20s in the middle of the clone wars, a changed man, wondering how to get with his Obi-Wan. Of course, when he manages, he never falls to the dark side.

The galaxy is saved, the readers get what they craved, everybody cries, only Palps dies, poor Pads finds comfort in lesbian sex, now that Anakin is her ex. 🎤 🎵

A time-travel fix it of sorts, if you squint?

My Favourite Dan Avidan Covers

Because he (and Arin Hanson, shout out Game Grumps) has infected my brain /pos. These are in no particular order, and just because you don't see a cover on here doesn't mean I hate it. Let's be clear: there are no bad Dan Avidan covers. All are good. These are just my favourites (includes both NSP and Guitar Bros)

Karma Police - Dan Avidan and Super Guitar Bros II

This cover makes my soul ascend in ways I didn't know it could

Both haunting and hypnotically beautiful

Love when covers take the original and make it their own

The last bit (where he repeats "for a minute there, I lost myself" and the instrumental bit afterwards) is my favourite part. It's so gorgeous

Not gonna lie, I'm a lesbian and even I found myself falling in love a little bit

We Built This City - Ninja Sex Party (Under The Covers Vol. III)

I just KNOW they had fun filming this music video

The bit where the red lazers reflect off Dan's outfit is visually stunning

Also, it just sounds super cool

Scarborough Fair - Dan Avidan and Super Guitar Bros

I can't decide if I like the Simon and Garfunkle version or this one better

But Dan + Super Guitar Bros ate so hard

Not much else to say, I just love this cover

Nights In White Satin - Dan Avidan and Super Guitar Bros II

I think "soft-singing Dan" is a kryptonite for me

His voice is so clear and soothing

This song is also PERFECT for guitar

You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) - Ninja Sex Party (Under The Covers Vol. II)

This feels like an obvious addition

But this song feels like it was written specifically for NSP

There's also One Specific Clip of him singing it live that lives rent free in my brain

THEY INCLUDED THE LITTLE "AND NO ONE ELSE WILL DO" AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY

Photograph - Ninja Sex Party (Under The Covers Vol. III)

"You've gone straight to my HEEEEEAAAAAAAD" has cemented itself into my brain

Also the little flick up on "I wanna touch you" followed by the guitar and then that beautiful note

This whole cover is just *chef's kiss*

The Chain - Dan Avidan and Super Guitar Bros III

I'm so excited for the full album you don't even know

Shoutout to Dreadlight Music, they were so good!

Of course Dan sounds brilliant, his voice blends so well with the girls!

I'm sure it's been said before, but the way Dan growls when he sings "love" tickles my brain

Super Guitar Bros never fail with nailing the instrumentals

Speaking of...

DESERVES MORE APPRECIATION: Head Over Heels - Dan Avidan and Super Guitar Bros II

I know Dan doesn't really feature until the end, but it's still Super Guitar Bros, plus it features on the album

It's just a stunning rendition, I love the way it sounds on guitar

They gave it a magical-sounding feel

The kind of song that feels like it was made for Super Guitar Bros to cover

And then the vocals kick in and it's just GORGEOUS

Honestly I wish more people gave this cover attention, it's breath-taking

Like I said, I don't think there's such thing as a bad Dan Avidan cover, so I'd love to hear what you think of this list + what your favourites are! I'm sure there will be more great covers in the upcoming album (I'm particularly excited for Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) and Bitter Sweet Symphony)

[heavenbarnes]

hi!! i’ve never done this before but id like to request a sydney adamu x femreader :) like maybe with the reader being a new sous chef at the bear or old culinary school crush or smth along those lines haha or literally any other ideas u might have!! there’s an unfortunate lack of sydney fics in general so i’ll rly take anything lol. also LOVED the one you wrote recently (im losing it lately) i have been re-reading it over and over again omfg

Already better for knowing you

Sydney Adamu x female reader

Warnings/Contains: swearing, syd is so fucking awkward, carmy is a meddling shithead, mature themes (involving fruit), beginnings of a praise kink, no actual smut (can you believe it?!)

Thank you so much for requesting this, I thoroughly enjoy writing for Syd! Also sorry that I always write her the same way (awkward-lesbian-munch) but I genuinely think that’s how she’d be. Also cannot believe you’ve read my work multiple times! I didn’t know if you wanted this to be smut so I only hinted, but lemme know if you want more. Anyways, hope you like this!

Sydney and Carmy had to have the difficult talk.

With the success of The Bear, how much it had taken off with their hard work, it was time to bite the bullet.

They needed more hands in the kitchen.

Experienced hands, they needed someone that Syd could rely on. She could give an order and that person would follow.

She needed a sous chef.

They put up the ad and, sure enough, they had a number of chefs in for the interview. They were keen, mostly young, hungry for the chance to break out into their first kitchen.

Both Syd and Carm knew you had to start somewhere but they both really needed the experience, the trust, the reliability.

Their last day of interviews rolled through and Sydney couldn’t help the feeling of helplessness creeping in her chest. Last day of interviews and still no closer to a new sous.

Were they being too picky?

As she shuffled her papers of interview questions and old CVs, she watched Carmy scratch the back of his neck as he read over the last applicant’s details.

“Well, she sounds good on paper.”

Syd couldn’t help the snort she let out, elbows on the table and head resting in her hands. “They’ve all sounded good on paper.”

Carmy shrugged his shoulders at that, but nevertheless sat down beside his chef de cuisine still reading over the paper.

“Says she’s worked in a couple restaurants, out of state- she’s only recently moved to Chicago.”

Syd listened to him speak, trying to find herself a little bit more excited at the prospects.

“Graduated from the CIA, experienced with-“

That perked her up a bit, knowing it was a long shot with the number of campus locations and students that came and went from the institute.

But there was still a small chance.

“What’s her name?” She turned to read the paper over Carmy’s shoulder as the sound of the door opening filled the space.

It all happened so quickly.

The door opened.

Carmy said your name.

You appeared before her.

Still as beautiful as the last time she saw you.

As if she could forget that day, for a few reasons. One, it was graduation, obviously she was going to remember it. Two, well, you were there.

If anyone cared enough to ask, she could tell them what you wore. The way your smile shone under the stage lights. The way you smelt as you hugged her and wished her the best.

Sometimes, when things got quiet, she’d play that moment over in her head.

Sydney thought she might’ve been dreaming when she saw you striding across the auditorium right towards her. You smiled, bright smile, hand coming up to give her a quick wave.

She’d even looked over her shoulder, trying to find out who you were even waving at. By the time she looked back towards you, you were smiling harder and giggling a little.

“Yes, that was for you.” You’d teased, making a heat grow on Syd’s cheeks.

“Yeah- yeah, I knew that.”

Your smile turned into a smirk as you nodded knowingly. “Course you did.”

Then you both stood there quietly, Sydney couldn’t really focus when you were dressed like this. Granted, it was just your chefs whites, but she couldn’t deny you wore the hell out of them.

You’d been wearing them nearly every day, and it still took her breath away every time she saw you. She didn’t even notice you were speaking until you shifted to get into her eye line.

“Sorry- what was that?”

“I said I’ll miss seeing you in the kitchen.”

Syd nodded, earnestly, face softening as she spoke. “I don’t think I’ll enjoy cooking as much without you there.”

She’d surprised herself with her confidence, actually being able to say it. She was pleased to see your smile growing. There was also a glint in your eye that she couldn’t place.

Her chest tightened up as you stepped forward, hands reaching out to pull her into a hug. She melted into you, taking a deep breath to remind herself of your sweet scent.

“Soon as you make it big,” You spoke knowingly, like it was inevitable. “I’ll come find you.”

And here you were now, standing before her in her own restaurant.

You’d found her.

Her mouth fell open as she tried to find the words she’d wanted to say to you all this time. How are you? I’ve missed you? I’ve thought about you every day since the last time I saw you?

Instead, she just stayed silent. She closed her mouth, blinking up at you with those beautiful eyes of hers.

“Syd,” Her name sounded at home in your mouth. “How long has it been?”

“Three years, eight m-months.” She’d only realised how quickly she’d answered when she saw your eyebrows raise.

Carmy shifted beside her, too. It snapped her back into reality, the reality where you were standing right before her and she was acting like a fucking dickhead.

“Well, here’s hoping I’m right on time.” You didn’t look put off, you assumed that same smirk you’d given her all those three years, eight months ago.

You were, you were always right on time. Always in the right place. Always just right.

Syd managed to pull herself together enough to stand up (for whatever reason) and gesture to the seat before her and Carmy. You graciously accepted, sitting down and placing your hands on the table.

Her eyes were immediately drawn to them, the way your fingers intertwined together, the lines coming off your palms. Sydney remembered back to the institute, the distractions she’d face watching you handle a knife or split a citrus fruit.

She couldn’t think of the latter right now.

The way your fingers would pierce the skin, pulling it apart with juices spraying up your wrists. You’d scoop out the flesh with your bare hands, not caring for the way it’d leave you sticky and dripping.

You’d look up at her, finding her watching you and not minding the way she stared. The fateful day you threw the rest of the grapefruit into the scraps, bringing two fingers to your lips to lick the excess off before you washed your hands.

Sydney was completely and utterly-

“Obsessed,” Your voice brought her back into the room, only for the second or third time in the short span of time. “Obsessed with what you’ve done with this place.”

She saw Carmy smile out the corner of her eye, his cheeks blushed a little at your words. You had that effect on most people. Sydney knew better than anyone what you could do to a person with just a few words.

“Well, we’re quite impressed with your CV,” He responded, laying it out on the table. “Aren’t we, Syd?”

By the time she looked away from him, she found you were already staring at her expectantly. She nodded, mumbling an affirmative sound to the both of them.

“Really impressed, seems like you’ve done a great job since graduation.”

You lit up, that’s the only way Sydney could describe it. It was as if your heart was swelling in your chest as your cheeks rose.

“Thank you, that means a lot,” She had assumed you were referring to the both of them until you finished. “Coming from you, Syd.”

If this was how she was at the interview, lord help her in the kitchen. There was no doubt you were getting the job, that was an absolute given. But Sydney would have to think hard about how it’d work practically.

Her sous chef. Following her every move. Responding to her every word. Reliable, obedient, willing, responsive.

Syd had seen you in action at the institute, but never following her own orders. She didn’t know if she’d be able to cope with hearing your “yes, chef” and knowing it was directed at her.

Even the way you were looking at her now, so expectant, hanging on to everything she was saying. She knew that look in your eye, on your face, you’d given yourself away just a little earlier.

“Coming from you, Syd.”

Praise. You were looking for her praise.

The thought sent Sydney into overdrive, forcing her to stand up abruptly and knock her knees into the table as she did.

Both you and Carmy looked up at her in confusion, your mouth opening to ask if everything was alright.

Syd cut you off, babbling as she walked away from the table. “I just remembered- remembered that the stove is on and- that’s the number one cause of kitchen fires- and I will be right back!”

She kept talking as she eventually made her way into the kitchen, hiding in the space right next to the oven (that hadn’t been on all morning).

Sydney knew she was fucked. Royally, totally, well and truly fucked. The crush she’d had on you at the institute had been debilitating and, whilst she’d missed you, these three years and eight months had meant she was finally able to focus.

Now here you were, in her kitchen and looking like everything she’d ever wanted.

Syd had no idea how long she stayed hiding in the kitchen but sooner or later Carmy came through with a stupid smile on his face, leaning against the bench.

“Think you handled that really well.”

“Shut the fuck up, I’m begging you.”

He laughed, laying the brown folder he’d been carrying down beside him as he crossed his arms. She looked up at him, wincing a little as she already knew what was coming.

“You gave her the job, didn’t you?”

Carmy laughed louder, looking down at the heap of Sydney on the floor. She could kick his shins right now.

“Of course I did,” He responded, pushing up from the bench as he turned to leave. “Have fun training your new sous chef.”

Fucked. Completely fucked.

[sage-nebula]

Spinellllll

What I like about them

He's several of my favorite villain archetypes rolled into one. He's very scientifically-oriented, motivated primarily by scientific progress; he's incredibly intelligent, calculating and methodical, planning several steps ahead and planning for contingencies so he's harder to defeat; he employs brainwashing and memory manipulation; he has no depths to which he won't sink, including murder; and he's obsessive over one of my favorite characters. He's pretty much the whole package!

What I dislike about them

I don't like that he put Umbreon through so much agony with Rakurium, even though it was in the name of scientific progress and as such it does make sense for him to do that. It's the one thing he's done that I don't approve of.

Favourite moment

This is a hard one . . . it's a toss-up between when he mindwiped Liko and stole her pendant, and his battle against Friede in the building he had built specifically to trap Friede in.

For the Liko moment, it was the first real act of villainy we saw from him, I think, and it had such intricate setup. He not only used electromagnetic interference to take the Brave Asagi's electronics systems down so that they wouldn't be able to easily locate her, but he also broke her Rotom Phone, and he also put a bunch of false leads on the internet to send them on a wild goose chase, and he had also wiped her memory on top of that so that she couldn't even remember traveling with them at all before setting her loose in the city. Like he didn't just briefly hypnotize her and steal her pendant; he did so much on top of it that it's honestly remarkable that they managed to get the pendant back from him in the end. This is what I mean when I say the man plans for contingencies; he accounts for multiple, if not all, possible variables to his plans and it's part of why Friede skating by on instinct both pisses him off and furthers his obsession in equal measure.

And then the battle against Friede was just brilliantly choreographed. Like the fact that it was a battle completely in the dark, lit only by Umbreon's rings and Cap's electricity . . . insert a chef's kiss because that was impeccable. And then of course it ended with the, "Perhaps he is deserving of further study" line which has many of us huffing copium that Spinel has had Friede in his possession in the past year. Pleeeaaaase let him have been doing extremely unethical science on Friede for the past year, pleeeeaaaaase.

Least favourite moment

The aforementioned Umbreon torture . . . there's no excusing that.

A situation with this character that I want to see explored more

His relationship with Friede, and alllll the extremely unethical science he could have been doing with him in the past year. I know there's only so much they can show given that this is a kid's anime, but come on . . . they could keep the really disturbing stuff off-screen and just show us the results . . .

An interesting AU for this character

Well, there is my AU Grounding Techniques! It is officially an AU because even though we don't know what happened to Friede, I didn't account for Pagogo waking up so early, Uruto is not included, and it turns out that Mollie and Orio are living separately instead of living the lesbian dream. But despite it being an AU, I'm still having a lot of fun with it, and Spinel is as well 💜

A crossover

I think Spinel would get along fantastically with GLaDOS. He'd use Beheeyem to lure in more people for her to test and keep her well-equipped with deadly neurotoxin.

OTP (or OT3+ etc…. just… favourite ship)

Friespinel, but not in the romantic, loving, normal relationship kind of way. I adore the enemies aspect of their relationship, the FOETP of it all, Friede living rent-free in Spinel's head while Friede doesn't think about him at all unless he absolutely has to. I want it dark and obsessive, only working as a charade of a normal relationship if Friede doesn't remember who he was, and feels indebted to the man who "saved" him.

Other ships?

Spinel and Agate have power couple energy, if I'm being honest, but it's also very clear they are just using each other. Agate has already proven (after the pendant debacle) that she absolutely will call Spinel out on his shit and has only been working with him because she thinks he has the highest chance of success. And Spinel has equally made it clear that he's just using the Explorers (Agate included) to further his own ends. But I also think they are both intelligent enough to be aware that they're using each other, so it makes the relationship work.

BROTP

Umbreon and Beheeyem are probably the closest he gets, even though he tortured Umbreon that one time. >:( I'm aware he does also have a Magnezone, but Magnezone barely gets any attention and I don't think he's very close to it at all.

NOTP

Spinel x anyone under the age of 18, though I think I've so far only really seen this with Amethio. Look, Spinel's fucked up, but I don't think he'd go after kids like that. He'll kill them, sure, but statutory rape (or otherwise)? Come now, even he has standards.

An assortment of headcanons! 

He's 32 when the series starts.

He's from Johto, and his Umbreon was his starter pokémon (as an Eevee), given to him by Bill at the end of an advanced pokémon science summer camp.

He has a luxurious penthouse apartment that he only really uses to sleep, shower, and do late night work. He has maybe a banana in the fridge. The only other food in the place is for his pokémon. Everything he eats is takeout.

He's a wine connoisseur, with his favorite being expensive cabernet sauvignon imported from Kalos.

He grew up very poor -- he got into that prestigious summer camp on a scholarship -- and it's part of why he resents Amethio being a nepo baby. (Like, Sango jokes about it, but Spinel actually holds it against him.)

Thank you for sending these in!!

I've got a theory...

(spoiler warning for s1 & s2)

So the lesbian noodle couple right? My theory is that their story is parallel foreshadowing for Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi.

Lil' recap: Lin Zhen (the chef) and Yu Xia (the marketer) started a business called Xialin Noodle House (literally a combo of their names) with a very successful signature recipe. Eventually Yu Xia strays from the path and Lin Zhen says she's leaving. This prompts the money/growth focused Yu Xia to go to our boys for help in finding the secret ingredient to their famous noodles. Turns out it's the ingredient that she herself introduced which is only made in her home town. So, coming to her senses, she goes to find her wife¹ Lin Zhen waiting outside a house for her where they then hug and assumedly live happily ever after. At the end of the episode there is a parallel event where our boys only have one bowl of noodles for them to share. They both look at eachother a lil stun locked because the it reminded them of the time Lin Zhen and Yu Xia had a Lady and The Tramp moment that had Cheng Xiaoshi coughing in fear.

So what am I saying? Obviously the noodle scene is a parallel but what if it's put in as more than just a 'hey they're queer too'² funny haha? What if it's meant to be a flashing neon sign of "hey their whole story is similar"? Keep in mind this is all under the assumption that Cheng Xiaoshi has died and Lu Guang has tried numerous times to change that unchangeable node.

Here's my points of parallel:

Obvious one out first: Yu Xia & Lin Zhen are business partners with a special secret recipe. Lu Guang & Cheng Xiaoshi are business partners with a special secret method they never intended to share with anyone else. This feels like the beggining knot to the noodle's end one connected our strings. It's also made to make you compare the two pairs.

Yu Xia strays from the path. Lu Guang strays from the path. In Lu Guang's case, it's probably supposed to be the rule set he drills into Cheng Xiaoshi's head.

Lin Zhen doesn't stray, neither does Cheng Xiaoshi. When CXS thought LG died, he contemplated going back in time to change his fate but decided against it. He thinks LG would be displeased with the idea.

Lin Zhen gives Yu Xia a reality check and then waits for her to come back to her senses. She literally and metaphorically waits for her to come back home. So what if: Cheng Xiaoshi does the same thing with Lu Guang?

Now I have a few ideas for how this story could play out as a parallel:

The Happy Ever After idea. Cheng Xiaoshi finds out what Lu Guang has done before the time of the crucial event (CXS's og death). CXS's previous deaths are the equivalent to Lin Zhen leaving and LG finally saving him is the equivalent of the lesbian reunion.

The Oblivious idea. CXS doesn't find out what LG has done. His previous deaths are the equivalent to Lin Zhen leaving. LG's attempts, and eventual success, to save him are the equivalent of Yu Xia returning home to her partner. LG's abandonment of the rules to do this would be too. The strict adherence to the rules would've been his 'straying from the path'. Perhaps this is what resulted in CXS original death. CXS living is the parallel for Lin Zhen waiting for Yu Xia at home and their hug (return of togetherness) at the end.

The Argument idea. CXS finds out what LG's done and they have an argument. This would be the parallel to Lin Zhen's push. CXS also lives, same parallel as #3. Bonus if CXS has never found out in previous attempts.

The Doomed By The Narrative idea. I... don't wanna explain this one. It's pretty self explanatory. Basically, despite LG's best efforts, he can't change CXS's death. The hug could be death bed forgiveness. Might include a CXS finds out argument too.

The Religious idea. They both die. The lesbian reunion is a parallel to them meeting again either in another life or in the afterlife.

Now here's where I've gone and gotten spicy and off course:

The Trade idea. Lu Guang dies instead of Cheng Xiaoshi, purposefully taking his place. This could draw comparison to the hostage situation where CXS trades himself for a silenced LG. The silenced part could relate to CXS's previous death, LG never telling him what he's done, and/or LG not telling him what he's doing. Maybe LG's already tried this tho given both how he gets into that situation and how it would be a very basic idea to at least attempt it with other people.

The Attempted Trade idea. The trade idea except CXS doesn't let him.

So what am I on about?

Well I think The Argument Parallel (Lesbian)³ Theory is the most likely of all of these. I think, assuming we're correct that Cheng Xiaoshi has died, it's highly unlikely that the show will end with him being dead. Normally I'd say it'd be boring to have an ending like that but honestly Link Click is good enough to make it work... So unfortunately for my heart I can't rule it out but still.

Anyway, thanks for listening to my nonsense. 'Till next time friends!

AIGHT SO CARNIVAL OF CHAOS IS ONLY NINE DAYS AWAY, I’M GETTING IMPATIENT, AND ALL THE AUDITIONS AND CHARACTER INTROS ARE NOT HELPING OMG IM SO EXCITED FR FR.

(Spoilers below or smth idk)

• Tristan & Hannah were already 2 of the characters I was most excited about when the Carnival of Chaos cast photo was released, BUT THEN AS IT TURNS OUT, HANNAH’S A BISEXUAL FILIPINO-CANADIAN, AND TRISTAN’S NON-BINARY. THIS TYPE OF REPRESENTATION MAKES ME SO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYY

• I SHIP THOSE TWO SO MUCH BTW, THEY’RE MY OTP FOR THIS SEASON

• Isabel’s gonna be an interesting character considering her whole influencer nun thing. Last I checked, James has more followers than her lmao

• Natalia’s audition is the best audition, argue with the wall. We appreciate Riya slander in this household and her talking about how the show needs her with all the twinks they nearly killed made me laugh my ass off (I DON’T DISLIKE RIYA BTW, I’M JUST VERY CONFLICTED ABOUT HER BECAUSE SHE’S AN INTERESTING BITCH OF A CHARACTER BECAUSE OF HER ARC THROUGHOUT S2 & ALL STARS)

• I saw a post on twt predicting that Benji’s gonna become a twist villain because of his perfectionist nature & the fact that he needs college funds or smth, and I’m honestly on that train that would be so interesting for his character.

• ALSO HE’S SUCH A FUCKING DORK, I LOVE HIM

• Literally all the VAs sound like they enjoy voicing their characters and that makes me rlly happy :D

• I was immediately intrigued by Alessio’s character as an artist myself. His design’s fucking awesome too, and him saying that he doesn’t have the best time connecting to others was so relatable HE’S JUST LIKE ME FR

• AWWW JADE HAS TWO MOMS :D Love how she made peace with her vitiligo and to use the winning money to give back to sea life and pursue marine biology

• Zaid’s gonna be an interesting character considering the fact that he’s a chef. Also he wants to give the money to his mom, that’s so fucking wholesome bro wtf-

• I’m mainly rooting for everyone that I just listed, but I genuinely like (or love in Hannah, Tristan, & Isabel’s case) every single character from this cast, until the actual season proves otherwise

• I wasn’t really rooting for Ted or Logan until the auditions dropped, but they seem pretty intriguing! Also Ted’s probably gonna be the villain of the season because of the whole poker player thing he has goin on

• Spencer’s gonna crush on Diego so hard lmao. Him saying that there isn’t gonna be a twist in the game that’ll throw him off course sealed his fate

• SPEAKING OF WHICH, Diego being so excited about meeting new friends and saying that Disventure Camp is gonna be the next journey of his life was so wholesome

• I’m also a lesbian Anastasia truther lol. Her and Marissa would be a great couple >:D

• I love women with abs and Marissa is no different

• I mean what who said that

• Richard’s canonically gay, happily married to his husband, and has a daughter, good for him

• Lynda has the same VA as best girl Lucia, I’m sold

• IVY’S SO SILLY AND AWKWARD. I LOVE HER

• Amelie’s intriguing ig :p

• Trevek better be gay & happy during this season btw, it’s what they deserve. The staff plot for this season’s gonna be interesting considering that Emily’s an intern, and will probably be third-wheeling them lmao.

• Also saw some people on twt complaining about all the gay pairings, and I just wanna say THIS IS DISVENTURE CAMP BITCH. WE LOVE GAY SHIPS IN THIS MOTHERFUCKER. TAKE YOUR HETERO ASS BACK TO TOTAL DRAMA- (/j btw. I saw the reboot seasons, mkulia and rajbow are adorable together)

• So yeah, I’m totally normal about the upcoming season :)

[empress-of-snark]

Don’t mind me I’m just ✨Manifesting a Frasier AU✨:

Jonathan and Will as less-snooty-more-artsy Frasier and Niles – both became psychiatrists like their mom (maybe in this au Joyce married Hopper earlier and decided to became a psychiatrist, so Jonathan was never parentified and he and Will have a more normal sibling dynamic). Jonathan moves back to his hometown in his 30s-40s after divorcing Nancy. Hopper is their retired police-chief widowed step-father who has to move in with Jonathan after being shot. Will is unhappily partnered to a very odd man no one can stand, Marius. As for Daphne, El is the obvious choice, but then Will would need a separate love interest. Or else, Chrissy could be Daphne and just be Jon’s love interest instead. Robin could be a lesbian Roz, Steve is a less obnoxious/sexist Bulldog, maybe replace Gil with Eddie having a show talking about music. I hope someone out there gets inspired lol I’m obsessed

Anon, I am HERE for this AU, and I'm kissing you on the mouth for sending me this ask.

Expanding way too much under the cut...

Despite the fact that this does unfortunately require separating Jancy and killing Joyce (😭), I am delighted by the prospect of Jonathan and Hopper living together and getting under each other's skin. Probably not in quite the same ways that Frasier and Martin don't get along, but I think their personalities are different enough that they'd end up butting heads pretty often. I think Hopper especially would get annoyed with how passive aggressive Jonathan can be, and would rather he speak up when something bothers him, rather than letting it fester. Meanwhile, Jonathan can't stand police procedurals but it's pretty much all Hopper watches.

I am a Jancy shipper through and through, but I also could easily see a version of them where they're amicably divorced. Maybe in this universe, instead of Hopper constantly making jokes at Nancy's expense (like Martin does with Lilith), he actually really likes her and always pesters Jonathan about "letting her get away." No matter how many times Jonathan tries to explain why things didn't work out, Hopper just thinks that he fumbled it lol.

Chrissy as Daphne is just *chef's kiss* perfection because you know she'd endear herself to Hopper almost immediately. Unlike the show, where Frasier thinks she's too eccentric at first and Martin is the one to vouch for her, I think Hopper would initially find her annoying and too perky/girly, but Jonathan would insist that she's the most qualified candidate to be his physical therapist. Within a few days, Hopper would realize how lonely and sad Chrissy really is, and his Dad Instincts will kick in--she's now his adopted daughter and he will defend her with his life.

Since she obviously wouldn't be Will's love interest, she'd have to be Jonathan's, but unlike the Niles/Daphne relationship, which is for the most part one-sided until a certain point, she and Jonathan fall for each other at the same time, except neither of them will make a move because it would be so unprofessional, he's literally her employer, and a relationship would be totally unethical! Of course, both of them are convinced the other person doesn't feel the same way, and to top it all off, they're living together, which means the tension is truly off-the-charts.

Nancy is actually the one who has to give Jonathan the push. He hasn't dated much since the divorce because he claims he's too busy with work and taking care of Hopper, and on one of her visits, she has a talk with him and tells him that it's okay to move on, he deserves to be happy, and she won't get her feelings hurt if and when he finds someone else.

The way that I cackled at Will's weird husband Marius that no one likes lmaoo. I feel like Will is so uncertain of himself and scared of being alone that he could easily be in an unhealthy relationship either without really realizing it or without knowing how to leave, exactly. He eventually gets the courage to do it after learning that Marius is cheating on him, and Mike fits in somewhere as his endgame love interest. Maybe he works at the station with Jonathan?

Speaking of which, love Robin being the Roz character (I've always personally headcanoned Roz as bisexual)--she's perfectly snarky and best of all, there'd be no unnecessary ship teasing between her and Jonathan lol. Steve as Bulldog is also perfect. Since Bulldog and Daphne do canonically go on a date early on after the bachelor's auction, maybe Steve serves as Chrissy's alternate love interest who sparks Jonathan's jealousy 👀

Okay that's enough ranting, but suffice it to say, I'm in love with the idea of this AU and if I weren't already writing a huge, multichapter sitcom fic, I'd snatch it up immediately and run with it. Maybe I still will, who knows lol?

Thanks so much for the ask!!

(tagging @pearlypairings because idk if you've ever watched Frasier, but you are my photocheer buddy and I think you'll enjoy the premise regardless)

ranked stobin trios:

stobancy - (steve, robin and nancy.) the shipper and the ship. beautiful. what’s not to love. a battle trio. my three girls. nancy becoming closer to stobin as a representation of her overcoming her guilt about barb’s death. *chef’s kiss*

stobickie - (steve, robin and vickie.) once again, the shipper and the ship!!! we’ve got two bisexual babes and a lesbian. what is not to love. honestly, if we’d had more canon interactions with vickie, it would be much harder to place this trio second. anyway. love how all three of them represent hope in different ways!!!!

stobin + erica - three of scoops troop, of course they’re going to place high on this list. i know what we’ve got on them isn’t a lot, but what we do have is solid gold, okay? even just looking at the way they move together, robin stepping in front of erica, and ushering her around. the verbal battles between steve and erica. can’t beat it!

stobin + dustin - stobin and steve’s first child. great comedic trio, beautiful protective bonds. another shipper and the ship trio, but this time the evil version lmao. (though i blame that on dustin’s jealousy over robin stepping into the role of steve’s best friend, and wanting to shift her into the girlfriend role so he can be steve’s best friend). would’ve ranked higher if not for s4 and *****.

stobin + lucas - absolutely would’ve ranked higher if we’d gotten more content, but as it stands, stobin being two of the three characters that attended lucas’ game? i don’t care what canon says, i know they went up to congratulate him afterwards.

stobin + max - (honestly max and lucas trios are kinda tied for fifth place) we’re getting into the tough to place trios, because they just haven’t spent enough time in canon together. but i know they could be so good if only the duffers would let them. max writing steve a letter? robin being the one to save max’s life by figuring out the music? it’s all set up to be a beautiful friendship.

stobin + argyle - incredibly upsetting to place him this low, but i know if they spent even a second together, they’d be running off to get high in argyle’s van, and the duffers are just too afraid to show it.

[mineforfree]

to celebrate being mostly done my drafts, like this for a starter from some of my new / test muses. they are under the cut with a lil blurb about them!

atticus advena, motel owner & ghost hunter, will poulter fc. an awkward guy who lives in a small town that's full of weird instances. he draws in supernatural people, constantly housing demons and vampires and other 'dark' passengers at the motel on the outskirts of the town. his brother, langston, is the sheriff of the town and they have a strained relationship (because atticus is willing to protect people).

langston advena, sheriff, miles teller fc. forced to be sherriff after his father went missing, langston has struggled with keeping their small town safe. mostly because his father apparently made a deal with the devil and langston is struggling with giving away his soul. most people think he's an asshole, and he kind of is, but he has daddy issues and doesn't want to turn out like him.

jackie kosinski, librarian & former hit woman, gillian anderson fc. a killer who ended up settling down in a small town after her son turned ten. has always been a single mother and would kill for her son. he ended up being a serial killer (and award winning surgeon) but at least he was kind. as jackie would say: in a world where you can be anything, be kind. her addition? and those who are not should be murdered in cold blood.

penny kensington, cult leader & headmistress, michelle pfeiffer fc. in some verses she could be the leader of a magician's guild/college but in others (where she's human) he is the head of a prestegious school and a lowkey cult. sweet but demanding, clearly evil, but she loves women and willing to show her love as often as they need to be reminded.

lorenzo vitacco, priest, michele morrone fc. a sweet, dumb man that moved to america when he was ten years old. kind and generous, a virgin (of course) and not often tempted by others. he has a massive family (about 10 siblings) and loves his mother. an amazing cook and thought about changing his trajectory to be a chef but ended up deciding to follow his family's wishes and follow god. but struggling a lot with it.

harmonia feyden, witch & government agent, zendaya fc. headstrong and bitter, wasted her days at school learning magic only to end up alone and a workaholic. mostly because she let a boy dictate her life all to be cheated on during their senior year of college. love wasn't in the cards for her, so she decided to focus on working her way up in an intensive job. realized she was a lesbian recently, which was an added 'fuck you' to her already miserable life. smartest witch in her grade, and yet had nothing to show for it but a job that didn't appreciate her.

[romantichopelessly]

Jordeclan and Coffy for the ask meme

Jordeclan:

Whether I ship it or not: Yes !!! I do. I unfortunately don't post it very often, but I actually think they are the strongest couple in TD3 at times.

Why I ship it or not: I think she could fix him. (That's only half a joke). I think it's *chef's kiss* that everything that Jordan is challenges Declan's beliefs. I love that he becomes stability and a way out for her. Jordeclan to me is one of those ships that's like. Yes, she could do so much better than him, but I respect women's choices and good for her.

My opinion on their canon potential: One thing I will say--Greywaren lost some of their potential at the end. They absolutely SHOULD NOT have gotten married at the Barns. In no world is that a good ending for them. To me, they elope not long after the apocalypse avoiding stuff and do their art crimes farrrrr away from the Barns.

My opinion on fanon interpretations/fandom around it: I am not Declan's number one fan, I'm pretty open on that. I think that's part of why I don't post Jordeclan much, because going into TD3 I just barely liked Declan and I am only just now doing my first reread of the trilogy with his and Jordan's arcs in mind. So generally, I'm not fully on board with a lot of Jordeclan posting because it usually boils down to Declan stan posting, and that just doesn't spark a lot of interest for me. I need more Jordeclan posting from a Jordan perspective, and maybe I'll get on that when I finish my reread.

Coffy (I am assuming Cordelia/Buffy?):

Whether I ship it or not: I could take it or leave it, I think. When watching the show, it never really appealed to me, but when I see people posting it I could get behind it.

Why I ship it or not: Why I think I didn't when watching it the first time is because I've never been too big on the rivals to lovers trope personally, especially when in canon there were more interesting options for that imo (FUFFY !!). But why I can get behind it now? I really really love both of these characters. Cordelia in her ATS era is one of my favorite characters in the BTVS catalogue overall. And Buffy is like my fav of all time. I think they could get over Angel together.

My opinion on their canon potential: There's definitely always chemistry there, but I do not think that they could have been together in high school. I think they would have to come together after graduation--maybe in an AU where ATS and BTVS join together again around Season 6 BTVS.

My opinion on fanon interpretations/fandom around it: TBH I do not see much action from this fandom on this point. I need to be seeing more. I do love lesbian or ace interpretations of Cordy. And of course bi Buffy is basically canon to me. I also haven't seen this much at all, but I think Willow would be so jealous if they got together lmaoo.

[skylarkking]

Ships that make me go FERAL. 🔞

Tfp Ratchet x Optimus. These two... oh my fucking God these two. I imagine Ratchet being a valvedom here and having Optimus on a leash as foreplay whenever the pair were alone with eachother. Like just the thought of Optimus whimpering for release as Ratchet touches every sensitive spot on him. Fucking amazing. Plus there is such a gay romance between them in tfp that makes my heart go wee!

Tfa Shockwave x Blurr. Tiny doms are my FAVORITE thing. Blurr being absolutely tiny compared to Shockwave yet being able to make the Decepticon become a begging whining mess is just *chefs kiss*. I also think this ship would be one of those super tragic ones if it ever happened in cannon and I think it came about because of how Shockwave's voice somewhat wavered when he crushed Blurr.

MTMTE Megatron x Rung. *incoherent feral goblin noises*

Armada Megatron x Optimus. Now let me explain something to you all. This show (at least the English dub) is RIDDLED with homoerotic sexual tension. In all other continuities that I've seen thus far (aside from MTMTE and MAYBE earthspark [which idk because I have yet to watch earthspark]) when Optimus fucking dies the Megatron of that continuity REJOICES! But Armada Megatron? No, he fucking MOURNS! He straight up cries out for him and has a massive "I've won, but at what cost?" Moment.

Cyberverse Hot Rod x Soundwave. Do I need to explain myself with this one? Of course I do because I'm a fucking degenerate! I KNOW these two bastards have the nastiest, angriest interface sessions EVER! I'm talking full on BDSM shit where it's not just a frag session, but a battle of dominance. At first these sort of things were merely angry frags just to get off, but over time they became ADDICTED to eachother. So much so that the hate slowly became love. And when Soundwave sacrificed himself and was no more, I think a piece of Hot Rod died with him.

G1 Starscream x Skyfire. Look okay just... just listen. I headcannon that for YEARS Starscream blamed himself for the disappearance of Skyfire and that made him extremely cold on the inside. When the Decepticons found Skyfire Starscream literally was battling with guilt the entire time and was doing everything to make amends with the one he loved only to lose him again. This time, to the Autobots.

BW Dinobot x Rattrap. Gotta love a good hate fuck.

Cyberverse chromia x windblade. THESE TWO! AHHHHHHH GIVE ME THE LESBIAN LOVE THEY DESERVE EACHOTHER OMG!!!! I ENVY I ENVY I FUCKING ENVY!

Tfa Lockdown x Swindle. Fucking greedy little leeches the both of them. They would have the roughest interface and Lockdown would have to gag Swindle to prevent the bot from trying to negotiate (since he HAS to make a deal due to his greed programming that is hardwired into him). But despite being rough with eachother I think they genuinely love eachother. They just are too prideful to fully say it.

[austajunk]

How about 2, 3, 7, 8, 12 and 18 for Komaeda? :3

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

I love Nagito. Let me just say that. I do. But I also love the fun little ways life continues to shit on him. He constantly gets his shit wrecked and it is endlessly funny to me. He opens his little mouth during the trial and everyone is like "Komaeda... please... I beg... shut the fuck up!"

He sees the most beautiful creature in the world to him and falls in love--as he gets SHOT IN THE FUCKING CHEST. It's awesome.

As a Despair, he has to babysit bratty children (poorly and he even bullies one) and gets mercilessly harassed and cut up while having to watch the most lesbian confrontation of all time (complete with sunrise and cherry blossom tress in the background).

I could watch Komaeda eat shit for days.

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

He really just had to ruin that SeikoxRurukaxIzayoi threesome and get them expelled, didn't he?

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

I like that they draw him looking like the messed up little weirdo that he is. The artwork and deep dives are just chefs kiss.

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

Guys, stop acting like Komahina is the only valid ship out there. We all know Nagihoe Hoemaeda is a total slut. There's enough of him to go around. I really wish the fan base just... generally wasn't so gatekeepey with him.

Then there's the woobifying.

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

He's blessed with amazing oral sex skills. Good with the tongue surprisingly. But very low stamina. Poor guy.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

Aw man don't make me pick his relationships. They're too interesting. My favorites are his relationships with Hajime and Chiaki, of course, but...

I will list some that I feel don't get much attention.

I like his dynamic with Kazuichi because I feel like Nagito actually does fantasize about befriending him. But I think that's because Kaz attached himself so easily to Hajime that he's envious of Hajime's ability to just attract others to his side. When Nagito identifies Kaz's trust issues and breaks him down in the fourth chapter of DR2, it shows that he's been watching the mechanic and he knows how to eat away at his insecurities. Then there's the DR3 interactions and how Kaz had to carry him and get shit on because of Nagito's luck cycle. It's pretty funny.

Then there's his interaction (tho brief) with Gundham where Gundham refused Nagito and his apathy to steal his moment in Chapter 4. How they are both contrasted in the trial as both having to go through the Final Death Room (I may be misremembering the name) and the roulette challenge. Gundham is scraping to fight for his life because it's important to him. Nagito simply doesn't care but wants to end them all after going through the same challenge. These two were the antagonist giants of Chapter Four.

With Sonia, Nagito is notably respectful and protective. It's very sweet. And in return, Sonia has this more curious side about her. I think Nagito makes her curious because his motives are so unknown to her and of course, occult loving Sonia just has to work him out in her head and understand him whilst Chiaki is more accepting of how he is. Against I just think it's sweet.

[beanghostprincess]

Beeeeeans? I am so sick with the Rona and I just wanted to ask if you have any cute Sanuso / Namivivi proposal headcanons to heal my spirits (if you want to and if you have the energy I just have been thinking about fluffy wedding stuff so much.)

Sanji would be the type of chef who plans to swoon their darling with the old “ring on the dessert” thing I feel. It’s classic, it’s stylish, he has witnessed a many proposal at the baratie like this and it always ended well …. And then he proudly gets up after their dinner to get the ice cream and Usopp is all “Thanks but I’m not hungry anymore.” Five course meal may have been little overdoing it. Starts to persuade Usopp into eating just a little more, which in turn makes Usopp a bit annoyed “Thanks but no thanks. Listen, what’s your issue? You know Luffy will gladly eat anything you-” “I DONT WANT LUFFY TO EAT IT.” Culminates in Sanji stomping off to the kitchen and fishing the ring off his painstakingly made desert and proposing old school style, which makes him a bit more nervous because the ice cream thing was a charm point and also his forte, even if Usopp said no they would still probably share the desert together.

Of course everything goes well and Usopp accepts and of course Luffy walks by them five minutes later with the sundae in hand all “Congrats! But you’re missing out Usopp, this is amazing”

Sorry for the late reply!!! I really hope you get better :(( <33 I'm a sucker for marriage and proposal headcanons!!!! And what you all said is so cute because of course Sanji would make his proposal about food!!

Okay!! So little cute proposal headcanons for you to get better!!

Sanuso:

Sanji and Usopp would propose to each other at the same time. That's how in sync they are. They'd be extremely anxious all day long waiting for the moment and they would end up doing it at the same time. And I think they're beautiful and stupid.

Thinking about Sanji putting the ring on a champagne glass and Usopp swallowing it. Completely clueless. Sanji starts to panic.

Usopp would make the biggest public performance to ask Sanji to marry him. Fireworks. A whole damn show. Nami would definitely help. It's the most beautiful thing in the world.

Fuck proposals, actually Sogeking goes to whole cake island, saves Sanji and they get married right there.

Following the last concept, kind of, I truly think Sanji would instantly ask Usopp to marry him the second they find each other again in Wano.

Namivivi:

I know we talk a lot about Zolu's proposal being that scene of Pirates of the Caribbean but I think it would fit Namivivi too so much!!

Thinking about Vivi proposing to Nami in a more traditional way. Like. Arabasta's traditions or something. Very Princess/Fairytail like. They'd have a very cute wedding with Arabasta dresses!!!

They meet again!! But Vivi has to stay in Arabasta for reasons (manga related reasons iykyk). They're all saying goodbye, Sunny already sailing away, and before Nami can regret anything she impulsively yells at Vivi from far away and asks her to marry her when they see each other again.

They have a very romantic and poetic night together before they have to separate again :( I think they'd even get married that night.

Sick Nami when Drum Island happens and Vivi telling her that once she gets better they're gonna get married (quick lesbian love as usual but for these two is true love)
