♡: Accidentally falling asleep together for BuckTommy?
it's late, i know. but on the plus (?) side, it got away from me a bit so have 1k plus of mostly just...them being cute.
"I wanted to take you before," Buck says, casual, because they're trying to get better at talking about before, at not just pretending that Tommy kissed him and they got together and everything was fine. "But the viewing conditions were bad all last year."
"Yeah? There a reason for that, or just bad luck?"
It means keep talking, and Buck smiles. Tommy really - he makes Buck feel smart. Makes him feel interesting.
"Just luck, I think," Buck says, and frowns. "I don't know if there's some kinda…pattern to it, maybe? I bet Karen could build an algorithm. Did anyone at Harbor lose their minds over that treasure hunt a few years back or were you guys all too busy being cool?"
"I may have been roped into planning a search grid or two," Tommy says with a grin. "Are we taking food with us?"
"Just snacks," Buck says. "I figured we'd swing by a 24 hour diner on our way home."
"Burgers and milkshakes at 3a.m. honestly sounds perfect," Tommy says. He doesn't take his eyes off the road, but he reaches out for Buck, brings his hand up to kiss his knuckles. "We talking gas station snacks or Trader Joe's?"
"I could do some serious damage to an overpriced salad right now."
"Gotcha."
Once they're loaded up with Buck's overpriced salad and Tommy's over seasoned chips they're able to make the drive out towards Malibu a fairly leisurely one. Once they get to the beach, Buck decides it was worth the tradeoff to head out of the city rather than to one of the ticketed events - it's going to be cold, but it's fairly quiet, just a few clusters of other people dotted around.
Tommy spreads their blanket on the sand and Buck settles against him. The sound of the waves is a lovely background soundscape and Buck lets it wipe the long, long week away for a few moments.
"Hey," he says when Tommy hands him his salad. "Did you know this is one of my favorite beaches?"
"I don't think I did," Tommy says. "How come?"
"The tide pools," Buck says eagerly. "I brought Jee a few times and we saw so many good critters."
"Yeah? We'll have to come back in daylight and you can show me…all the gross water bugs your heart desires."
Buck snorts with laughter and presses his face into Tommy's shoulder. "You are under no obligation to look at fascinating water bugs with me, you big baby."
"Okay, but I would," Tommy says.
"I know you would. It's fine. I'll just carry on bringing the tiny children who won't have to feign interest through gritted teeth."
"I will happily wait in the car," Tommy says, kissing the top of Buck's head. "Fetch ice creams. Make interested sounds from a safe distance."
"Big baby," Buck says again, fonder than he can possibly express.
"Alright, alright. C'mon, tell me about this meteor shower."
"Okay," Buck says, and pulls Tommy down so they're side by side on the blanket. "We're looking…here," he says, tracing a circle in the sky above them.
"Gotcha," Tommy says, and inches a little closer, looking up along the line of Buck's arm.
"Did - " Buck breaks off to yawn. "DId you know the Geminids are really unusual?"
"How so?"
"So they come from an asteroid, not a comet. There's only one other shower like that, I think, and it's not as regular."
"Yeah?"
"Mm-hm. It's called 3200 Phaethon, and it gets closer to the sun than any other named asteroid."
"Huh."
"Did you know it's a PHA - potentially hazardous asteroid?"
"I did not know that."
Buck nods and turns his head to look at Tommy, his profile as eye catching as ever, even when it's in darkness.
"Just because of its size though. It actually has a really predictable orbit, so we're not in danger, or anything."
"I'll tell Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck to stand down."
"Huh?"
"Movie," Tommy says. "We'll watch it sometime. I'm sure the science would annoy you, but both Affleck and Liv Tyler are at their prettiest."
Buck laughs and turns onto his side to get closer to Tommy, wrapping an arm around his waist.
"Careful," Tommy says. "Don't wanna miss the show." But he cranes his neck to kiss Buck anyway.
"We're not gonna miss it," Buck promises, stealing another kiss. "It was named after the son of the Greek sun god," he says between kisses. "The asteroid."
"Yeah?"
"Uh-huh. Because it - it gets so close."
"The power of Wikipedia right at my fingertips," Tommy says, dancing his fingers up and down the back of Buck's neck for emphasis.
Buck laughs and shivers, shoves his hand inside Tommy's hoodie for warmth and revenge. Tommy half-swallows a yelp and kisses him again. Buck settles closer, craning his neck a little so he can keep an eye on the sky. It is cold, but he's so comfortable, always so comfortable when they settle together like this.
"The Greek sun god is called Helios, by the way," Tommy says.
"Yeah?"
"Mm-hm."
"How'd you know that?"
"Oh, I've got useless facts of my own, Buckley. Bit of a myths and legends phase as a kid. For a minute, anyway. Needless to say, the old man didn't approve."
"Asshole," Buck mumbles.
"Ancient Greeks were - " Tommy breaks off to yawn. "Were kinda fruity, you know?"
"I'll fight him."
"My hero," Tommy says. "My Heracles."
"Like the movie?"
Buck can feel Tommy's surprise.
"That's the Roman version, but yeah."
"Watched it w' Jee," he says.
"Evan. Don't fall asleep."
"'m not. Tell me - tell me about Hercules. Heracles. Keep me awake."
"Okay," Tommy says softly. "He was…hm. He was the son of Zeus and a mortal woman. I can't remember her name. Al-something, I think. He was strong, and brave, and clever…"
Buck can feel his eyes closing, can feel Tommy drifting too, but it's okay. A little power nap and they'll still have plenty of time before the moon rises.
"Baby," he hears, Tommy's voice rough with sleep, and he feels a gentle nudge. "Baby, wake up."
"Wha - " the moon is bright, and Buck is abruptly aware that every part of him that isn't touching Tommy is freezing cold. "Shit, we missed it? Oh my god. I can't believe we fell asleep!"
"I know," Tommy says. "I'm sorry. Long week, huh?"
"Yeah. Goddamnit. We could try again tomorrow? Tonight was the peak though, and I think there's gonna be cloud cover tomorrow. Shit."
"Hey, it's okay."
"No, but I really wanted to do this with you."
Tommy squeezes his hand and Buck manages not to shiver at the cold touch of his fingers. Shit, they really have to get out of here.
"There's always next year," Tommy says, and the casual way he says it makes Buck's disappointment fizzle and die in his stomach, replaced by that swooping feeling of love and want and ever so slightly disbelieving gratitude at how far they've come.
"Yeah," Buck agrees. "There's always next year."

I'm usually a very shadowy follower of things I like but your Robin Hood project has gripped my brain by the teeth and I just had to indulge the ideas. I adore the (hypothetical) interactions between Robin and Guy - the sketches you've done thus far have fuelled me, soooo I wrote a little thing and I hope I'm not intruding by sharing it and having taken my own creative liberties with the circumstances and character behaviours. It's (shamelessly) inspired by that tiny sketch you did where Robin saves Guy, and it's certainly not the greatest thing I've written but I like it and I hope you do to (I shall be hiding from Tumblr for the next day because sharing this is making me nervous but I'll be quiet now).
---
The ground was rather far away, which was rarely a good thing, but most times Robin was confident in his ability to remain steady and safe at his high vantage point. In this moment, however, he found himself dangling off the side of a tall, grim building. The only thing keeping him from plummeting was Robin's own five fingers; his second hand was grasped tight to that of Guy Gisborne, an added weight that strove to drag Robin to the cold, harsh concrete below.
All in all, not a position Robin had ever intended to find himself in, but he'd made his choice the moment he'd dove over the edge to save the man who'd tried, yet again, to kill him.
Not the worst situation, though, Robin mused to himself, his foot searching for a crevice, ledge, anything to secure himself on. He spared a glance down at Guy, who stared back, eyes wide, the wind tearing through his braids. "Hold on, won't you," Robin told him, struggling to muster his usual cheer. Guy said nothing.
Robin's foot finally found purchase, and with the very dregs of his strength, he hoisted himself back onto the rooftop, inch by painful inch. As soon as his knees were steady on the concrete, Robin reached down, took Guy's forearm with his now free hand, and pulled him up.
Once past the edge, Guy slumped, trembling, against Robin, head resting on his shoulder. They sat like that for several, rather uncomfortable moments, Robin thought, until Guy looked up at him.
"Why'd you save me?"
… Robin didn't think he had an answer. He could have let Guy fall, could have let him tumble to the pavement below and call it a threat eliminated. The thing was, Guy hadn't ever really been a threat, not even when he'd first jumped Robin in that alley.
Robin grinned, combing his fingers through his hair, as if it would fix the mess he'd made of it. "I've gotten quite used to your attempts on my life by now. Things would doubtless get boring had I let you die." Guy sat back, forcing a scowl, but Robin didn't miss the colour in his freckled cheeks. "Right." Robin patted him on the shoulder, the one that hadn't been wrenched from its socket when he'd caught Guy mid-fall. "You really should learn some manners." It was incredibly amusing to see Guy's expression shift from flustered to outright incredulous. "What?" Robin grinned wide and stood. He adjusted the feather in his breast pocket before saying, "A thanks is in order, no? After all, it's not every day the man you are supposed to murder saves you from your own death." Robin watched as Guy got to his feet, unsteady and wincing. His gaze fixed the floor, and Robin saw his lips move, uttering a word his hearing aids failed to pick up. Robin tilted his head, knowing well the answer to his question. "What was that? I'm afraid I didn't hear."
Guy stepped up to Robin, expression returned to the almost unbreakable bored, serious look Robin had grown far too accustomed to. However, when Guy spoke, his words were brimming with sincerity. "Thank you, Robin. I mean it."
Ah. Guy's mild irritation with him, Robin could handle. Guy's attempts to murder him, Robin could also handle. This? Guy's absolute earnestness, was a different sort of challenge.
For several seconds too long, Robin foundered for something to say, and he wondered how much of it showed on his face. Any amount was too much. Robin fixed his expression, raising an eyebrow and reassuming his smile. "Of course you mean it, I expect nothing less of my favourite assassin."
Robin turned, but not before he saw the colour return to Guy's cheeks. "You had best get that arm of yours fixed before we next meet. I could point you towards a rather good doctor should you like, but I'm afraid she's rather fed up of my antics, so you'll have to find your own way." He spoke without looking back - he didn't need to see Guy's face, didn't need to hear whatever he said next. He thought he caught something, a blur of words impossible to discern, but Robin only waved, making for the fire escape ladder on the side of the building.
Hastily, he descended, and the moment he was on the ground, Robin stepped into the busy street, implementing himself into the crowds of London. He glanced up at where he'd left Guy and spotted him near the edge of the roof. Robin wondered if he was looking for him before putting the thought aside. There were other matters to attend.
---
I also drew them because yes and I highly doubt this'll be the last I'm compelled to create and share of them, but I shall leave you be now (thanks so much for creating such an amazing story).
This is INCREDIBLE! I’m so glad you shared it, dude! So are the sketches.
You managed to write Robin and Guy so accurately, and I’m glad to see the inclusion of his hearing aid not picking something up.
Also the bit where Guy’s head is on Robin’s shoulder? 😳
What’s their ship even called? GuyRob 😭😭😭? RobGuy.. Hoodbourne 😭😭…. GreenGun? Up to you guys.
Beautiful writing, I really enjoyed it! I’d love more ofc, I always do, from all of you guys. My moons are talented!

There is a very long winded and stupid rant ahead that will make me sound like a chronically online dumbass, but I desperately need to get this off my chest.
(Spoilers for the 7th comic and some lengthy bullshit ahead)
So, why does it piss me off whenever people refer to Zephaniah Mann as the Administrator’s ex husband?
I know people usually say it in a joking context, but it really rubs me the wrong way. Let me explain
The writers went out of their way to portray Zephaniah as a monster. Even though we never truly know what happened, we know that he effectively ruined Helen’s life. To the point where she dedicated her life to destroying him
By the time of Zephaniah’s death, he was no longer the man who killed her parents. He became the pit in Helen’s stomach, the hatred she felt towards others, and the life she never got to live. Helen had lost the one man she dedicated her life to destroying, along with her only reason to live.
Once Helen learned about the regenerative qualities of australium, she was able to bring Zephaniah back. Along with this was a promise of another chance, and more time to torture him
This torment became Helen’s reason to live. She kept expanding her operation, involving more innocent people and furthering her path of distruction all hoping that someday she might be happy, but it was never enough
So why the hell do people call Zephaniah Helen’s ex husband? Was it because she raised his children? No. She planned to smother them in their sleep, plus she raised them to be incompetent. Was it because she was his housemaid? No. A heartless man who only cares about himself and the women who hates his guts don’t fall in love just because they’re in a house together
Once again I know people usually say this in a joking context, but I genuinely feel like it comes from a place of misogyny. Like the idea that a man and a woman HAVE TO be in love despite the obvious reasons they have to hate each other just gives me an ick that I can’t describe
Helen hated this man. She killed him, and then raised him from the dead just so she can torment him. The idea that love or romance or even sex would be involved just feels incredibly gross to me. Plus it seems so unfair to Helen as a character because it completely diminishes so much of her motivations. Turning a story of loss, depression, and addiction into “crazy woman cant get over her ex 🤪” just feels so weird and takes away from the actual message of the story
Also he fucking killed her parents lol
Alright yap sesh over. I know its not that serious and ofc y’all are allowed to have whatever headcannons you please, I just knew that I would only be able to stop thinking about it once I said something
#can you tell im arospec LMAO#and once again its really not that serious#I just heard it one to many times and couldn’t stop thinking abt it#tf2#tf2 administrator#zephaniah mann#tf2 7th comic#tf2 spoilers#team fortress 2#also i know her name isnt helen but shhh

Louis' "You're boring!" Could mean so many things, but I think what's most apparent about that line is that Armand takes no initiative just for himself. He's not really anybody, because he never goes out and finds himself or gets attached to anyone but Louis. Without Louis as his guide he's literally just sitting on a couch picking lint! That's the thing.
He orbits constantly around what would make Louis happy, and never really fully going what would make me happy? Ultimately that drive to please Louis is what drives him to torturing Daniel, not so much that he'd care to just do it. Ultimately, not giving proper care to Louis is just a way to make sure Louis knows he has to orbit around him as well, with shoving Lestat onto him just that other nail on the coffin. So, even if he fails to figure out how to make Louis happy with him, he still knows what Armand is good for, and better than.
That dependency is what drives Armand's abuse. It really just comes down to that. Armand doesn't even realize how suffocated he is by his own dependency. This is just how life is to him. (It shouldn't be lost either that dependency is a theme considering this episode also deals with addiction).
Daniel's fascinating because he's just so driven to be somebody. He's largely independent, he seeks things because he wants them. It's his drug to poke and prod at all the things that he shouldn't. Daniel's exciting because he lets Louis in to something different, lets him in to all this potential in another person that he can also do the same with for himself. It's a real connection. A two way street. It's easy to tell how Armand can be smothering then because he's never introducing him to anything really new, and most the ways both of them connect are all painful and traumatic. It's never just fun because there's always that layer of that pain. Fun died with Claudia.
50 years on they've gotten to a lot better place, both of them, but it's still that same shit. No seriously, "How is this any different from last time, Louis?"
Well... Because Armand's going to be, at the very least, making one [1] decision only for himself - and that's to hold power over Daniel's life. Fucking sick foreshadowing.
They aren't driving each other to the brink anymore but "The vampire is bored" STILL. Maybe it's even worse, despite being in better places, because Louis' sort of just been defeated by it. (I mean, can he even really leave this either?). He's accepting the dependancy cause he kind of has to. He'd literally ended up letting all the enjoyment be up where he can't reach [The book shelves]. Armand so desperately wants Louis happiness but what really ends up happening is that Louis ends up having to give Armand all his own. He's got no one or anything else to get it from. But like an iPad and an over the top eating ritual. Two extremes of what's just more lint picking.
This whole relationship is one I find just tragic inside and out. You have to just pity it, really. There's ways in which you can find yourself feeling bad for both of them. But you can only really be mad at Armand for any of it. Armand, who isn't even 'free' in any sense, having so little concept of his own independence, but is at the same time so controlling over other's. It's a tragic cycle. It's an infuriating one.
Louis at least has the mind to know when enough is enough. If just needing that extra push to get there. Armand's too scared of it being over to even try.
#iwtv#iwtv character analysis#interview with the vampire#louis de pointe du lac#armand#loumand#amc iwtv#iwtv s2#iwtv season 2#don't be afraid just start the tape#Gotta feel bad for Louis for winding up falling in love again with someone ruled so much by their own undealt with shit#making him once again the victim of abuse for it#But at least I guess Lestat values his independence? And Louis to an extent.#Theres a lot less co-dependancy going on between them but it's still like ... there#I'm so serious tho when I say I really want IWTV to go in the direction of 'vampires all dealing with their shit and breaking generational#cycles of abuse' because THATS so IT too me. That's the juice tbh.#because a thing with immortality is that you can't partition away from dealing with shit through knowing you or someone is going to die#You have to confront it you're forced to or else its just FOREVER literally going to be there#Louis (or really Claudia) being the first to really confront that (chef kiss)#which is an interesting thing to depict because technically we all carry the burden of eternity w/in us. Our impact on the world lasts and#what violence we allow in the world without fighting or working against it will never change either.#We have to confront the truth and find reconciliation with all of it or it is just without end there is no bottom to it#theres a lot of discussion on it but I think Louis considers himself a survivor. He's lived to this point and will keep living.#He probably cares too much about the why he ends up a victim (the undealt with shit he can't blame them for) to admit otherwise that he is#Too an extent too he cares and loves the people he's been with to really view it that way. But also this survivor perspective is very#'immortality' accepting. Naming a victim sort of is like naming a kind of death that can't go on from there.#Might make these tags into their own post at some point

I always love your posts about THK and your recently pinned post and another one about Style yearning for skinship are just *chef's kiss*. So thank you for your analysis!
I saw some comments on tumblr that Style was acting as if he's sad and playing Fadel and I just could NOT agree, so I was glad to see your post. My opinion on Style's crying scene is I don't think Style meant to cry at first, but his emotions sort of overwhelmed him while he was talking. I think he definitely uses his cheerful disassocation with reality to deal with fear and he was just going to tell his message to his dad just in case, perhaps in a more lighthearted way, but he remembered about his mom and the reality of potential death hit him fully because his mother's death must be the closest death he'd experienced in his life. And when Fadel asked him if he was crying he just said Duh and wasn't fully crying, but after Fadel told him to stop the sob story, he turned back and the tears really started flowing. When I saw that I could really relate to him because that's how I usually act too- act nonchalant to hide my real feelings. Style wasn't planning to get emotional and then got mocked for it - and he was also denied his s*xual advances/skinship earlier too- that must've felt really hurtful to him.
As much as the scene hurts, I'm glad to see this was not cut because even cheerful, positive people like Style really gets down sometimes and people don't really understand this, even in real life! I was kind of like this when younger and had some people tell me they can't imagine me feeling sad or nervous. So seeing Style's rare serious and emotional side in the story is really made me kind of acknowledged? When I started watching this show, I didn't think I would get this attached to this character. He's like a ray of sunshine, very pure in his beliefs and quite fiercely loyal too (might be weird to say when he was complicit but he is actually loyal to both Kant and Fadel to the best of his ablities IMO) and the actor/Dunk is absolutely killing this role! Not just the crying scene in this episode, but Dunk's comedic timing in delivering the one liners is SO GOOD he manages to make me laugh every single episode so far.
Lovely anon, oh thank you for sharing so vulnerably about how you related to Style in that scene. I really agree with you that Style wasn't putting on an act to fool Fadel. I'm very surprised to hear that anyone still thinks Style is playing Fadel at this point?? O_O I don't think anything he does this episode is an act anymore -- even when he propositions Fadel with a shirt tossed into his face, there's clear and genuine intent behind it:
There's so much going on in this look. The gentle fondness as he gazes back at Fadel, the way the look seeks to communicate affection even as Fadel is glaring back in anger and frustration. But there's acceptance too, like he understands why Fadel is keeping his walls up, he understands why Fadel feels he deserves some of this harshness and he will let Fadel take the time he needs to come to whatever conclusions he wants to as long as Fadel does so with the understanding that Style's love for him is genuine.
Because at the end of the day the only thing Style really doesn't want is for Fadel to make his choice (to forgive or to cut Style off) thinking that Style's feelings are still a lie. I think that's the crux of the problem between them now: Fadel is pushing Style away because he is certain Style’s feelings aren’t true, and have never been true, but Style knows his own heart and understands the fundamental shift inside him that occurred over the course of their relationship.
Which is why I think Style is genuine in everything he’s showing Fadel now. Even if he didn’t mean to cry, I think his worry for his dad is very real. And I think the reason why he brings it up with Fadel is that Style is done hiding anything from him now. It’s not about manipulation, nor is it an attempt to make Fadel feel guilty. But he's taking everything Fadel is giving to him incredibly seriously and part of that is facing the possibility that Fadel may decide to kill him at the end after all. And that's... scary; hell its terrifying and heartbreaking and Style has understandable guilt related to how losing him after losing his mother is going to affect his dad.
And actually what you're saying about "cheerful and positive people like Style" also sometimes feeling down is such an important aspect of understanding Style's character. Because we can only really understand the weight of Style’s love for Fadel if we see him in all his multifaceted complexity: Style has suffered, Style understands the pain of loss but has learned to find joy in his life in the process of dealing with his mother’s passing. Styles cheerfulness and positively is not a sign of his immaturity or lack of complexity but rather evidence of a inner strength and determination to find meaning in life beyond the sadness. After my dad passed, it took me nearly 4 years to even get to a point where I began to want to want to find pockets of happiness. There was so much about me at the time time bound up in my feelings of loss and sadness and the ache of missing my dad, the unfairness of it all. Style is-- Style is so very precious to me.
And something I found really poignant is how Fadel and Style have such opposing methods of dealing with grief and fear. Fadel hides from it, runs from it, builds up walls and remains ever vigilante so he'll never be vulnerable again, while Style faces his grief and his fear head on. Style takes his fear out and holds it in the palm of his hand and in the process - like you said - maybe found himself more overwhelmed then he expected, but he allows himself the space to cry because he also sees that its important in the moment. And he invites Fadel into that vulnerability with him. That's insane to me -- Style's love for Fadel means that even when Fadel has a gun to his head and is the source of his fear, Fadel is always orientated on the INSIDE to Style.
To extend the allegory, the difference between them is that Fadel's love made him invite Style inside his walls as an outsider, but Style's love makes Fadel already part of him. Fadel doesn't need an invitation because at no point in episode 8 did Style ever treat Fadel as anything but an extension of his own heart.
So yeah, I'm so with you about being grateful for the scene. I think it maybe could have been shot differently (for instance, I kind of wish they'd just let Dunk do his thing and sell the moment without having that background music 180 degree shift), but I adore it for what it shows us about Style and the way he thinks and feels, and most of all the way Fadel is oriented in his heart.
#ask#the heart killers#fadelstyle#thk ep 8#thk meta#hui talks thk#fandom talks <3#also hard agree on dunk having some really excellent one liners in this series like... its an aspect i'm personally really enjoying#like i know I KNOW that for some people they want this show to be more serious and like... i get it??#but also thats literally what fanfic is for xDDD#i haven't had time to read anything for ages but you best believe i intend to be camping out in ao3 once i'm able to again#i'm sorry it took me so long to reply!!! i was struggling to formulate some of what i wanted to say and family commitments have escalated#in the lead up to CNY

dude i'm sorry for all the kanoshin posting but like the way shintaro immediately forgives kano for telling him as ayano how it was all his fault. what shintaro went through was so awful he lost all his friends and his Best friend committed suicide after apparently saying "it's YOUR fault for never noticing" like that shit does irreparable damage to ur well being bro. for all this time shintaro thought it was HIS FAULT that ayano killed herself
and when kano admits it was him who said that shintaro doesn't isolate it from everything else kano was going through at that moment, so he doesn't hold it against him and he forgives him so easily. and that bit is from shintaro's pov so when we switch back to kano and he's so guilty and sort of in disbelief shintaro doesn't hate him. sorry that entire part with kano's pov in the seventh novel reads SO extremely romantic towards shintaro it's crazy. maybe i'm just gay but "he used to smile at my sister in a different way than he'd smile for everyone else. now he's smiling at me just like that" girl. EXCUSE ME. i didnt even care about kanoshin when i first read the seventh novel btw and i was still like oh so kano's into him. got it.
like shintaro's the victim to probably the most cruel thing kano's ever done to someone and he FORGIVES HIM so for kano who hates himself it's like. something something he sees me at my worst and still has the nerve to be kind to me. something something.
and in between all that there's kido and mary like god shintaro ur so lameeee, and kano in his mind is like i think he's cool actually.... im not saying it out loud though. he's down so bad for him it's so funny because it switches from all those convoluted guilty feelings to kano sort of twiling his hair like omg he's so heroic. and it's kind of endearing
kano's crush on shintaro is infuriatingly well written it's crazy. and it's even crazier that it's by accident and then u read the stuff not written directly by jin like the anthologies and the manga and instead they go for the weird incest shit, it's so jarring lol. and i'm not saying jin intended for it to be romantic. in fact it seems to me at least like jin thinks haruka and shintaro are the gayest ones?? just from how he jokes around and stuff. but it's funny how he wrote all that for kano but NOOOO kano's like such a flirt with women he's totally a lady's man. what's REALLY gay is haruka and shintaro crying in front of each other. can u imagine, boys... crying and being vulnerable with each other... hahhh so gay!!! girl maybe but RIGHT before that u wrote haruka going on about how he realizes he's into takane romantically precisely because HE'S NOT into shintaro romantically. like it is very much a point he makes. sorry that was a side tangent. anyways.
#i need to stop starting every post with SORRY FOR TALKING ABOUT THIS AGAIN#as if i didnt make this blog to log in and talk abt whatever the fuck i want#i need to be more unapologetic#kagevinnie#kanoshin#also can u tell i literally dont gaf about haruka and shintaro as a ship LOLLL#likeee i get it?? and for a while i thought it was because i just love harutaka but i like takane with shintaro and or with ayano#but since haruka makes that point with how he sees friendships and stuff. idk. and i take what they say very serious to their characters#unless it's some weird gross shit jin writes like and then he thought she shouldnt swear because how will she find a husband :3 girl stfu#otherwise yeah i like really putting together all their thoughts and feelings in my hcs. it feels more authetic 2 me... theyre not my ocs.#i just organize it the info and make hcs based on it OK??#so to me any romantic haruka/shintaro is so much of He wouldnt fucking say that. from haruka at least.#since we dont have a lot from shintaro its like yeah ok i can see shintaro being gay with it#the gayest i can imagine is they make out once and haruka's like hmmm... im definitely not into you i can confirm now.#BECAUSE HE MAKES IT SUCH A POINT HIS PLATONIC BOND WITH SHINTARO sorry fellas i cant see it#they can kiss a little. but i dont think harukas heart is in it. he's a lesbian.#kagenalysis

*thinking to myself* bobs burgers is like the simpsons if it was earnest and also if it was good.....
#no hate @ the simpsons really i just dont have that mean-spirited sense of humor where everyone kind of hates each other#thats why a lot of those sitcoms dont hit for me#like its always just making fun of people. characters or real people. i feel like bob's burgers NEVER does that in a serious way#it always just feels like everyone is a bully and nobody questions them#this of course goes 100x for shows like family guy or american dad but they all kind of suck#once again most sitcoms do this i think lol#Bobs burgers does it and other lorenverse shows#still need to watch the great north#txt#bob's burgers#doesnt** do it

talking bout drugs
I hate sounding like the teenager your mom warned you about bc i am SO not immune to addiction (and I am trying to be super duper careful at least now I am) but it makes sense doesn't it.
I did drug, my brain got 1 (one!!) night where there wasn't a chemical cocktail of sadness and fear being pumped into it every single minute (and actually fun and pleasant and relaxed chemicals instead), and now a week later I just kinda feel lighter and more relaxed. I'm not fixed and this is very temporary, but at least for a little while I remember a really good night where I had no worries or pains and everything felt good and looked really good. I felt good about my body and I could talk myself up without the reflexive self-diminishing shame that follows the admittance that sometimes you're a cool person!! And doing good makes you feel good! And I got more physically close with my friend than ive been with almost any other person (besides my ex) and it changes nothing in our relationship so im never worried. I actually kinda feel like that's what human relationships should be like, if religion and misogyny hadn't ruined the concept of the human body.
I don't remember the last time I got a break from myself like that for more than like, a few good minutes, since before The Great Depression. And like they're considering a lot of these drugs as therapy for depression and PTSD and anxiety and all that, and I can see it! just reminding the brain that it's POSSIBLE to operate differently is huge.
And there's not even a hangover. As long as you have 4 gatorades around.
#alda rambling#I AM a Biased source don't fuckin listen to me this is JUST a personal account#But like man. So far no regrets. I got a real bad migraine once and learned to be better nourished beforehand and it hasn't happened since#I don't think ppl who aren't In It understand how monumental it is to just feel *different* for once.#And to let go of very very deeply ingrained instincts that keep you safe and makes life easier but also isolate you#AGAIN. VERY BIASED. I cannot lie i like drugs that's like what they're there for. Don't do drugs kids. Or at least be super safe#Hey you can ask me even and I can ask my friend who has knowledge. Being informed and prepped is seriously such a lifesaver#I'm just saying. If nothing else makes sense and nothing works and you're about to give up.-#Trying a feelgood drug reminds you that you're actually capable of feeling good. But be so so careful not to do the wrong one#Or under the wrong circumstance. Or in the wrong time. Buy yourself some months by just reading up and eating well beforehand#And have a good dependable friend with to take care of u! Otherwise you're basically wasting it. Don't waste drugs kids#ITS NOT EVEN SERIOUS DRUGS anyone who's really tried shit would laugh at me rn but I assume most ppl don't have experience

Hey want some hurt to comfort stuff I got based off the idea of black sapphire thinking of ruining y/n's life in that one post? Well had an idea:
Imagine if y/n was already depressed before meeting them...and already isolated, alone, bad thoughts...no rumors spread about them and stuff but just say y/n doesn't like looking themselves in the mirror...cue shadow milk one day plucking them up and black sapphire meets them too and notices how y/n is already broken...wonder how black sapphire would react to that lol...a depressed reader lol!
Uh well. I will be honest with you anon, depression has a very heavy connotation to it and this is mostly an unserious porn blog; any heavy topics I talk about (toxic relationships, unhealthy dynamics, everything about yandere) is done in a sexual manner. I'm willing to write about fluff and comfort but I don't think this is the place to talk about straight up depression (at least I'M not really comfortable writing about mental disorders/mental illnesses on a porn sideblog).
Sorry about that, just my personal boundary.
#i really hope im not making anyone feel worse its just. uh#there's nothing wrong with depression! i have major depressive disorder and its really severe#i just don't think the blog where yanderes and freaky kink stuff exists is really the place for it? if that makes sense#i think depression is just kind of serious for me and i don't feel like writing about it in a headcanons/imagine post about cookies#once again fluff and comfort stuff is fine. many cookies are a comfort character for me actually#just ehhhh idk what much else to say about this#once again anon im sorry i don't mean to burst your bubble#i think this is just a personal thing for me more than anything else. you didn't do anything wrong#also consider this a PSA for the future if anyone wants to send me asks about how a cookie would react to a reader with disorders/illnesses#again. nothing wrong with mental disorders or mental illnesses. i have a lot of those. just not comfy with it here#asks#anon

how to celebrate ur birthday or other holidays alone as a choice without making everyone concerned and offended
#no cuz i really want to JUST ONCE JUST ONE YEAR#I WOULD PROB FEEL LONELY AS FUCK BUT AT THE SAME TIME I COULD CHOOSE HOW TO CELEBRATE IT MYSELF ALL BY MYSELF AND DO WHATEVER I WANT#ITS WORTH TO DO THOSE HOLIDAYS LIKE NEW YEARS OR UR BIRTHDAY JUST ONCE. I FEEL LIKE#but not the alone because there is actually no one around u to celebrate with. that's different#and my heart goes out to the people that gotta celebrate smty alone. i am with them always spiritually even if they don't know it i am there#celebrating with them#i hope they know that#but anyway it being a choice actually matters#but yeah who knows if ill do that#maybe someday. hopefully. as a choice#this ain't serious or anything ignore this post#im rambling and getting out a thought again#rumaiq rambles#yk what i can do that by for example for my birthday celebrating the age + HALF of the year#so when it has been exactly 6 months since my birthday#and celebrating surviving the first 6 months without dying and now yay gotta survive the next 6#its an idea#i always wanted a summer birthday lowkey anyway not that i dont like mine in winter but summer feels like so much more fun#many more fun ways to celebrate a birthday. yk

hello! quick question, i know this is very soon after you posted the comic of young lime trying to bully mochi, and i’m sorry if a question like this has been asked before, but when mochi sees the candy bits and is able to recognize what spells they could be used in and the effects they have, is that from studying magic a lot or is it like a natural identification ability/instinct that she has? thank you!! i hope you have a good day :)
oh thats a great question actually!!!! it comes from studying!!!!
as a kid she was already trying to be a very diligent witch-to-be!! she would spend a lot of time with her mom while she was making spells, so between reading a lot of spellbooks + hanging out when her mom was making potions + wanting to be like her mom, shes good at spotting things that could be used in spells even from an early age!!
(that being said, as a kid she still messed up a lot on the right ingredients. shed bring home random items and be like "I got us spell ingredients!!" and tiramisu would be like "Oh!! Thanks sweetie!!" and didnt have the heart to tell her that whatever she brought home was some useless piece of grass or something jkldj)
#i guess nothing is really USELESS to a witch but there are items that are like. dont really grab those#either cuz theyre abundant enough that you dont need to collect them or the effects are so weak its not worth it#baby mochi had such a passion for magic and was so excited to be a witch and have magic one day#but when she gets magic and works with it she gets hella discouraged#she frequently wishes she had the mind of her 5 year old self who was so full of enthusiasm#but she messes up so much as a witch and its so exhausting it becomes more like a chore#like how you have a childhood dream of being an astronomer or artist something#but once you grow up you face so many struggles pursuing it you lose the love for it#magic burnout is mochis character arc#she finds herself again eventually and becomes confident in magic#but in a more mature way that uses it responsibly and loves it for what it really is#and less like her baby self that wanted to make cookies and fireworks appear out of thin air#the tags got serious but the question was cute#i hope you have a good day too!!!!!!!!!!!#new thing i never touched on: mochi character arc#you see hints of it in the webtoon though. its rough for her starting out. pom was not easy on her#but i think its the kind of familiar she needed

Finally made a Tav meetup image to match my Durge one, also after finally resolving my lag issues i could play a little farther into my Misfortune save (one day i will finish Act 3. It's just so much) which led to us finally being able to break Wyll's pact (yay!) but it also illustrated just how much Mizora gets bullied on her save. I imagine she absolutely loathes appearing in camp because of it.
I also finally get to introduce you to Baphomet! My third Dark Urge whom you might have seen before as a cameo in my Durge meetup art. For the longest time i barely had any art of her, but i've caught the bug i'm afraid so even if it's not a lot it's still enough for an introduction! (And more is certainly on the way)
(Can you tell i have a lot of difficulty drawing her? Because i do.)
Baphomet is a Way of the Four Elements (Fire spells only) Monk good Durge who is, on the surface, the most normal one out of the three. She was raised in a Lathandarian monastery as a star novice, the balance she was taught was what kept the Urges at bay for an unusually long time. This, however, was a double edged sword as when she finally snapped as a full-fledged Monk she was ten times more dangerous. Her killing of a Dawnmaster and several other novices led to her being banished from the monastery, and that's when she set off for the Temple of Bhaal. Yadda yadda main story stuff happens.
As a person Baphy is very stoic, being even less expressive than Tav; she's quiet and generally regarded as almost unreadable by her companions and instead lets her good actions speak for her. Internally there are a lot of things going on in her head though, most of them being her trying to grapple with The Urge. She's a very considerate person and tries to pass fair judgement to everyone, though can be lenient on those that show her kindness. She may not be good with words but she will do all in her power to support you.
#my art#bg3#bg3 tav#bg3 durge#tav: tav#tav: misfortune#tav:lawine#npc: fortune#durge: baphomet#karlach#wyll#mizora#orin#gortash#modern au#because i cant stop drawing these bitches in modern clothes when im too lazy to draw the armor#i feel like ive gotten better with writing lately so my bios are a lot better :) happy about it#i just realized i havent even introduced tav my main tav yet. i promise i love them i love them so bad they just have very little art#because i haaaate drawing the crackles. i know thats my own fault but surely you understand#IF YOURE WONDERING WHY SO MUCH BAPHY ART IS TRANS JOKES: when i was concepting her with friends i went hey#wouldnt it be really fucking funny if baphy woke up on the nautiloid as trans.#like “im probably a trans woman but i have to serve father so idrc about that rn”#and then she just woke up with her preferred name and pronouns being the only thing she remembers. and she has no idea shes trans#so a lot of her shitpost art is just trans related jokes because we all think its really fucking funny.#durgetash is only real for the bit btw its not something serious. once again the bit is important here

To me personally malistaire is the funniest and most pathetic villain wizard101 has ever had AND I MEAN THAT SINCERELY!!! Between doomed children who have been manipulated, groomed, and isolated into becoming products of their environments, someone scorned who has been punished unfairly by having your biological heart torn out your chest and turning your children and all of reality against you to satiate their own ego, a nonhuman entity so powerful and so clueless they unintentionally threaten the lives of everyone around them, Malistaire FELL DOWN BRO. Like yeah you're bitchless now. You and me both. Get in line. Everyone in this room is bitchless. We are ALL living that ✨💅🏾💃🕺 Single Life™. You are a middle-aged man. Cope
#this post is lighthearted btw JELAJWODJTU i aint actually mad#but like...... malistaire as a villain is kinda mid though im sorry. IM SORRY ill take the L opinion if i have to#its one thing if he lost his wife to unfair systematic negligence or thru someone else's doings or smth but. no she just got sick bro 😐#HWMSNFLEKSDIDOA EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I WILL GIVW A BAD OPINION AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM. i cant be right ALL the time /j#like if i dont focus on malistaire's motives and just his ACTIONS he seems super metal#but then he does ALLLLL of that heinous shit because his wife died. like thats absolutely very sad but damn get a grip#(fandom starts breaking in my windows and drags me out into the street) IM SORRY IM SORRY LOOK ITS JUST NOT MY CUP OF TEA#ive never been invested in those Mr. Freeze types of villains where a person they love dies due to normal circumstances-#and they go fucking BERSERK. they LOSE IT. they go like “well okay fuck the entire world i guess nothing matters” and then kill people#LIKE IF IT'S DONE IN A CERTAIN WAY I CAN BE INVESTED but more often than not to me? its just kind of funny#like “okay damn there was only ONE person keeping you from being a national criminal? okay”#and you know what? thats a mood actually. thats a mood#without my cat i probanly would have become the president by now#for some reason its a little diff for me if its like a child you lost and idk why#like if malistaire lost a kid instead of his wife id probably be more inclined to feel bad and thats terribly fucked up JSLSJSJSJ#you know what its also bias because in some shape or form i relate to all the other villains. morganthe and duncan especially#whereas in malitsaire's case i have never been married. which i mean doesnt stop me from tryna be more synpathetic i guess but im just not#ONCE AGAIN FEEL VERY BAD FOR HIM AND SULVIA. like losing someone to sickness or any reason really is a serious thing#but in terms of a fictional setting with fictional characters where one of them decides to commit genocide over it? 🧍 like okay boo u do u#i will gladly give up my mantle for the “most reasonable opinions” guy in the fandom foe this one. i deserve it#wizard101#w101#wiz101#text posts#malistaire drake
