I kinda miss hanging out with old people. All my friends used to be old people.
But the older I grow, and the more I'm expected to behave well like a normal adult, the harder I find it to keep those links. I'm lost between trying to stick to a script I don't know the words of to have a proper normal and interesting relationship for them, and allowing myself to screw up a little, be boring, be interested in stuff they aren't, having opinions they don't agree with (for silly stuff like music, though yk me), not be cool. Cause the latter stresses me out. Cause I see no reason for people to want to be friends with me if not that.
#also defining your relationship to old people who already have a well established family is hard when growing up#cause they were just my friends at first#and they helped me find a safe space#and they were like a chosen family#and then their adopted daughter hated me cause they had a friend that was her age and it messed up with me#now i feel so stressed out about it. i feel so stressed that i am taking space i shouldn't. that i am making their other friends and#family that have been there for far longer uncomfortable with just my presence#and i know i was just a depressed teen and very sensitive to this shit and people keep saying that it reveals more about the other person#than you (as it's not the first time i was left to deal with people's opinion of me FOR THEM)#but it just felt like i wasn't allowed to express my discomfort and i just had to swallow the way their reaction to their emotions impacted#me and handle it on my own#and I think I'm still hurting from it#cause I got no support#i'm just asked to sit there and take it and act as if it meant nothing#...ngl saying it writing it stating it feels good because i've held onto that for years and years and I couldn't say it#i wasn't allowed to#even my psychiatrist (when I had one) told me it was nothing and to ignore it#I just wish people could say that yes it's not okay. that i'm allowed to feel how i feel. i wish people would recognize and understand#what i mean when i say that.#cause what is it worth when i'm the only one saying it to me and the only one agreeing that it's true#i hate that i need people to agree and make their agreement vocal to help heal that inner child that was always told to push it down#cause what else ?#sometimes I wish I could see young Leska cause I know I'd be among the only ones to give em a hug#I just want to take them in my arms and tell them that it'll get better. That we're not out yet we still need to fight but we will#eventually#hopefully

ngl but it would be so funny if satoru does end up adopting a dog but then it turns passive aggressive with him cause it enjoys fushigojo mom and baby's company more than him xD
Tumblr media
adopting a dog is satoru’s idea.
he’s always liked dogs. but he’d never been allowed one when he a kid, and later on his life had been way too hectic to accommodate caring for a pet.
but now that he was settled down with his family was the perfect time for a pet. finally, the white picket fence dream he hadn’t known he wanted would be complete.
it’d taken him nearly a year to convince you. nearly a year of begging and spamming your phone with cute puppy videos. nearly a year of you saying no to his and his little mini-me's adorable pouty faces.
you'd only agreed after giving him a very long lecture about the responsibilities of caring for a pet. (it was almost as if he wasn't already the greatest husband father, teacher, and sorcerer.)
he really thought he'd won after you'd ordered him to begin dog-proofing the house. thought he'd won the day you finally agreed to go down to the shelter and came home with the newest addition to your little family.
but it wasn’t supposed to be like this.
"i hate you so much."
the australian shepherd, named miso by your daughter, tilts its head, staring up at satoru innocently.
well, as innocent as a wife stealing, daughter hogging, mochi snatching thief can look.
"oh no, you can't cute your way out of this with me," satoru grumbles, to which miso tries to prove him wrong by barking and shaking his fluffy bottom excitedly.
"attention seeker," he scoffs, walking over to begin setting the table for lunch.
the pitter patter of paws follows him, miso circling his legs happily. not only is he getting dog fur all over his new pants, but this is surely an attempt to trip him too.
the two boys look up at the sound of keys scraping into the door, followed by you and your daughter's hushed giggles.
satoru instinctively looks at the spot on the counter where his wallet usually sits and sighs when he finds it empty. miso on the other hand (or paw?) barks and spins in exactly one circle.
but this time the patter of tiny feet running across the floorboards makes satoru smile, kneeling down to receive a hug from--
"miso!" rina yells, the three year old wrapping her arms around the dog's neck.
then you come along, rubbing salt in the wound when you scratch behind the dog's ears before pressing a kiss to it's head.
this is so unfair. dog's are supposed to be a man's best friend.
but if the stupid dog can make his two best girls smile...then it's not all bad.

Possibly Hot Take:
Wayne Family Adventures is the correct canon and as a person who was raised on Batman, it's what got me back into the fandom, period. I get that people enjoy their gritty Batman, who hates everyone and is awful to his family, but that's not Batman. That's not the original Batman. The original Batman is the one who had "old-school" goofy programs on TV, aka the original 1960s Batman TV Program. The one that had goofy sound effects, and life lessons (and occasionally some slight drama). The original Batman is Batman: The Animated Series from 1992, where Batman's story is pretty much laid bare from the start. These programs show that you can have drama, and trauma, and not compromise a character by making him the antithesis of everything he is said to stand for. That's the Original Batman. That Batman lost his parents. Tragically. Horrifically. And because of that, his sole purpose in life was to make sure No Child EVER went through what he went through again. Every episode, he would get angry, fight a villain, put them in jail, but he would never kill. People seem to remember this half of him pretty easily. But they forget the second half. When a child shows up, that anger disappears. Because he cares about children, especially his own.
This is shown repeatedly through both series, and in many comic strips that ran at the time. A great example is the episode See No Evil from Batman: The Animated Series. In it, a little girl is almost kidnapped by her father, who is an Invisible Man, and Batman has to take him down. This episode is made all the more traumatic by the fact that the Invisible Man actually nearly succeeds in kidnapping his daughter, with Batman only being able to stop him last second, after the little girl realizes what is happening and becomes terrified. This ending is where you see the difference in how he treats villains, civilians, and children. Because in one second he's focused on taking out the bad guy, and the next he's focused on making sure that little girl is okay. And the episode ends by Batman visiting her at the window every night, to make sure she's okay and prove to her that she's protected, since that was the window her father used to access her.
A couple other good examples of Batman as a hero/friend/father are the Justice League (TV Series) and Young Justice (TV Series). Does he mess up a lot? Yes. Does he lack trust in people he should trust? Yes. It's literally a running gag/plot of the shows that he has a contingency plan for everyone on the Justice League and this translates to Robin having one for everyone in Young Justice. But, when he messes up, does he fix it? Also yes. He also cares for the kids in Young Justice, and for the kids they interact with in the Justice League. This is shown time and time again. Especially in the bond he and Robin have. Throughout Batman: The Animated Series, Justice League (TV Series), and Young Justice, Batman and Robin have always cared about one another. They've gotten into spats, and they're angry at each other occasionally, but that's how families work. You aren't always going to agree. But throughout it all, Robin always looked up to Batman, and Batman was always proud of Robin (even when he couldn't show it).
Here's where the trauma comes in:
Batman is going to screw up as a parent. Every single parent does. Especially when you're as traumatized as he is, and all of your adopted children/family are also as traumatized as you are. It is inevitable. But what differentiates Original Batman from the Batman that made me quit reading anything about him for years is the response. Original Batman would try to make things right. Because he would recognize that what he did had caused harm, and not only that, it caused harm to his children (and family). And he would hate that. So he would do everything possible to fix it, including working on himself and doing better. The newer age, grittier Batman doesn't do that. Because he's missing the very core of what it means to be Batman: caring about his family and caring about kids. This is why I left the fandom. Because that grittier Batman, is not Batman. He lacks the key piece of what makes Batman the character that he is. And it replaces that piece with drama for the sake of drama. No resolutions, no trying to be better, just hurt for the sake of hurt, and angst for the sake of angst. And I detest that. You can have drama without compromising his character. Joker is a murderous man who's gone insane, with the sole intent of hurting Batman and Gotham as sadistically as possible. That's been true since the 1960s Batman show I mentioned earlier. He would, and does hurt the Bat Family on a regular basis. And there are so many villains that do the same. Batman doesn't need to become one of them to "make the story more interesting". It already is. In fact, I'd argue that him staying true to himself and working with his family throughout it creates much more interesting dynamics than gritty Batman ever could.
And that's where Wayne Family Adventures comes in:
When I first saw WFA, I wasn't going to give it a chance. Because I'd been so burned by Batman Comics before that I didn't believe this one was going to be any better. But something made me give it a chance. Maybe it was the art style, maybe it was the fact that it was on Webtoon, I don't know. But when I started reading it, I was pleasantly surprised. And I was even more surprised to find out that it is a Canon (yes it is Canon, not Fanon) DC Batman Comic. Many people disliked the first season because it started out majority-wise as "fluff". However, if you cared to read past the first few episodes, more and more backstory started to pop up. Along with this, the "fluff" all connected. Because that "fluff" was necessary to break free of the shackles that the Batman franchise has been in for decades now. And for the first time, it showed the Bat Family with the heart of the Original Batman. The more you read, the better it gets, because the more fleshed out their world becomes. And it draws very important Canon from other franchises in ways that don't make it feel cheap. It also proves something that I think has needed to be proven for a long time; You can have substance in a story without it being entirely grim. Not only can you have substance, you can have deeper substance. Because the connections everyone in the Bat Family has to each other allows us to explore issues in a way they haven't been before. Through communication.
Spoilers below:
We get to see Jason go through a very large PTSD episode. And it isn't just "All people with PTSD are violent". In fact, the only one who thinks he's a danger to the world is himself. Everybody else recognizes that he's hurting, and that representation is enormous. We get to see insights into everyone's pasts and how it's affected them. In Season 3 (which is a fully fledged/connected arc, not "fluff"), we get to see how PTSD affects Bruce, and because he's on good terms with his adopted family, we get to see how it affects him and Jason, both similarly and differently, at the same time. We also get to see how Jason's previous death impacted Bruce and how that plays into the Joker's plans and Bruce's reactions to everything. We get to see Dick step up as Nightwing again, and his and Barbara's trauma, involving parents, the Joker, and having to go against someone you should be able to trust. We actually get to see Duke. And how all of this has affected him. We see how his parents being (currently) permanently "infected" by the joker has absolutely broken him in ways he hasn't yet processed. And how he can overcome it, while also leaning on the support of his family. We see how Damien's world-view is affected due to being raised by assassins, and how he slowly comes out of his shell the longer the series goes. We get to see wonderful examples of how loved ones can help bring us out of a crisis and back into a headspace that can do something about the situation, because sometimes brute forcing it won't work. And we get to see what coming out of a toxic relationship looks like through Harley Quinn, and how just because you're a different (better) person now, that doesn't mean the person you were before is completely gone from the minds of those around you. Bruce was still afraid of Harley when he was dealing with his PTSD responses. Because Harley Quinn did help the Joker do some really bad things. And Harley recognized that and understood.
Season 3 isn't over yet, and it's already done all of that and more.
And because of that, this series has singlehandedly brought me back into the fandom. Because it made Batman feel like Batman again. And it recognized that trauma is more complex than just piling darkness on top of darkness over and over again.
I want more people to give it a chance because it's done something genuinely special that DC hasn't had in a long time. And I think it could get so many Batman fans back on board who've been missing this version of Batman for decades, because it shows so well what Batman was always about. I also want newer Batman (grittier Batman) fans to give it a fair chance, because it has far more substance than many people will ever even care to look for. And that substance can do so much for people who empathize with characters like Jason, Bruce, Damien, Duke, etc.. As well as bring awareness about these topics to people who may not know anything about them, or only know a stigmatized version of these topics, especially PTSD.

🐯Chaewon — Best friends! Was close during her Iz*one days and have gotten stronger since. SHES ALSO THE MOST DELUSIONAL BITCH YOU WILL EVER MEET LIKE MY GOD. She has an obsession with gummy bears and other fruity candy currently. And she’s back with her ex (this is a good thing! I love them together!) so she’s finally stopped screaming ripping her hair out over her! I love giving her songs to cover cause it’s fun. And her vocal tone makes me ascend to the heavens tbh.
Tumblr media
🌸Sakura — THIS IS MY MOM!! I actually love Sakura so much and I’m so mad that freaking swing RUINED her voice. Her natural voice is so pretty and I used to have her sing me lullabies back when I was scared to sleep alone because of the massive hate I got in 2022. She’s so amazing and it makes me so sad that people don’t see it and I love her talent and wished she didn’t feel the pressure to be the best all the time. I love her and Mina together (I want them to adopt me.) but I don’t love seeing them make out in the living room. I watched her once fall to her news because of my “alleged” project with Sabrina carpenter as she proceeded to beg me to take her to meet her…..(I did).
Tumblr media
🦒Yunjin — SIGHHHH. Jennifer huh…(or as I call her Jenni!). We started off as basically attached by the hip,! Like this girl was my best friend fr and then we started dating 😭 (she asked me out in the most craziest way tbh…). Probably one of the most amazing things ever cause she was literally the most perfect gf….until she wasn’t. Long story short: we broke up and it was messy as shit. Then I got with ryujin and She started getting mad at me for weird reasons and then we were back to best friends like we used to be…AND THEN ON FREAKING TOUR SHE TOLD ME SHE WANTED ME BACK EVEN THOUGH SHE KNOWS IM HAPPY WITH RYUJIN??? Long story short….we’re just friends now but not as close as once were and it makes me sad cause..Jenni ☹️😞
Tumblr media
🦢Kazuha — MY ZUHAAAAA MY SWEET SWEET BABY!! I actually was the main one who talked to her during trainee days and we still are just as close! This is basically my little sister and when she had her solo debut I freaking SOBBED because of the song she made for me :(. She’s my sweet little swan and has a very big collection of white tennis shoes…SHE ALSO STARTED DATING BELLE FROM KIOF AND I ABSOLUTELY LOCE THEM!! Ballerina and the princess is what they are.
Tumblr media
🐈Eunchae — so this is my daughter Eunchae!! I’m not joking when I say I spoil and baby her. She’s literally my little and I just love her and her chubby lil cheekies. She goes through weird phases like how she used to always say “Gyatt” whenever I walked in the room….She always comes to me mainly whenever she’s overwhelmed or when things do become too much for her and I try my best to make sure she gets to live her life as a kid since she still is one. She has had a few cutie crushes on ppl but I don’t think she’ll date anyone right now. (And she’s scared to date rn…)

y/n’s perspective
“No,” I said and he sighed. “Please y/n-nie! He needs a home!” Haechan pouted and I scoffed. “Then you take care of him! I don’t have the time to take care of a hybrid…” I muttered and he chuckled.
“Which is exactly why you need one… he's very low maintenance, actually he can take care of himself. I think you need someone to take care of you” he said and I sighed… 
“I don’t need anyone to take care of me,” I said and he sighed… “Have you eaten today?” he asked and I sighed. “I didn’t have the time… I was studying–” “You’re always studying… Jay can help take care of you” he suggested and I shook my head.
“I couldn’t do that to him… he needs a good home,” I said and he smiled. “He’s had so many owners and yet none cared to keep him. All of them had all the money he could ever want…” he said and I sighed… 
“I really need to keep this scholarship, Haechan–” “How about a deal?” he asked and I knew I shouldn’t trust him but anything to make him shut up
“If under your care, you fail your next bio midterm, I'll find someone else… but if you can handle it please show him a good home” he begged and I sighed. “Fine…” I said not knowing what else to do about the whiny junior in front of me. 
“Okay! Let me text Mark that you agreed!” He said and I scoffed. Of course, Mark was also involved… Eventually, he came with a hybrid next to him.
“Ok, Jay here is a bird hybrid so he can only wear collars… he goes to the classes available on campus and Riki the devil hybrid’s lovely angelic owner got a new collar for him because I asked so nicely!” he said and I sighed.. 
“Hey you never know, by adopting a hybrid maybe the principal's daughter will be impressed by you,” Mark said and my eyes widened. “You think?” I asked now hopeful and they chuckled. 
“I don’t get why you admire her so much…” Haechan said and I smiled. “Cause she’s so sweet, and she actually offered the scholarship to me. Without her I wouldn’t be in this school” I said and he sighed.
“Maybe I should ask her to pay my tuition,” Haechan said and Mark laughed. “Good luck, she won’t even pay for Jisung’s meal card, '' he said and I looked at the hybrid who only awkwardly stood there looking at the ground. 
“Hello! I’m y/n… I don’t think I'll be your permanent owner but I’ll try my best in the time we’re together” I said and he nodded. He was really pretty…
“We’ll let you guys get acquainted,” Haechan said as he left us two. “What do you like to do Jay?” I asked and he shrugged. He seemed very silent… this was gonna be very awkward then. “I hope I don’t make you uncomfortable… I do live in a single dorm but it is quite small” I said and he still didn’t say a word. 
Did he hate me already?
I know Haechan said his previous owners were all of the rich kids on campus but… I couldn’t afford the lifestyle they can not anymore, I can only afford this school because of the scholarship I was given another chance with. 
“Jay… I hope we can get along”
Tumblr media
jay’s perspective
I can’t believe I got replaced by a mutt and was now left with her… I was still given my classes but this was all ridiculous! So when I saw him walk in front of me with new designer clothes and a new collar more expensive than anything my new temporary owner owns, it pissed me off. 
What did he have that I didn’t?! The puppy looks?!  
“She’s your owner now huh?”  I said when he turned to look at me disappointed to see me… We weren’t exactly friends…
“I hope you enjoy it, she’s a bitch who doesn’t know how to do anything herself. You constantly complain and are gonna make you do so many stupid things just to humiliate you!” I said letting the anger get to me… she really was the worst. All of them were.
“She wouldn’t do that” he muttered and I scoffed, I don’t know I was so angry that I grabbed his shirt enough to get aggressive with him... “You’ve suddenly changed from rags to riches and think it doesn’t come for a price!” I said… funny it's almost like we switched spots. 
“You know nothing about– I knew you were hurt but–” “Why are you suddenly mentioning her?” I asked, now confused… e/n was his owner, wasn’t he? “She adopted me… not like it's any of your business,” he said and I sighed… so she didn’t adopt him? Or did she just beat her to it?
“Is the free trial bird causing you trouble? I would too if I suddenly lost everything and suddenly became a freeloading hybrid!” Sunghoon laughed and I scoffed.
“You shouldn’t be laughing? From what I heard your owner doesn’t even know–""Shut up before I make sure this pretty little bird can’t sing again” he threatened… 
“Sore subject? I wouldn’t want to remember you either, Sunghoon '' I said and he glared not saying anything else as I sat down in a different seat than I normally would. 
First Riki now Jake? They both got the happy endings they want… don’t they? So… what about me?
Tumblr media
Where was she? She was late… or did she forget me already? 
“I’m sorry I'm late!” I heard and saw Sunghoon’s owner “I forgot where this place was and–” “Whatever,” Sunghoon said cutting her off… bitter hybrid with a bad reputation
Jake looked at him confused…. He doesn’t know anyone or anything since he’s new and clean from the richest side of things.
“His owner is an amnesiac… everyone thinks he tried to kill her and she just forgot,” I said and Sunoo seemed to disagree… “He’d never do that, they’ve been with each other since kids'' he said and I scoffed 
“What do you know about Sunoo?” I asked and he didn’t answer… it's been years since his owners would play together and in association with him and Sunghoon. They weren’t close anymore… They were strangers, especially because of how isolated Sunoo’s owner was. 
 “Jake!” I heard and saw Jake’s new owner… “You’re late” he teased and she shook her head apologetically  “It took me a while to actually get here from across campus,” she said and the dog hybrid just seemed happy to see her with lovesick honeymoon eyes  “Hmm? Looks like you had company though?” she asked and he said… “Not really”
They left me alone with Sunoo…
“I heard you have a new owner?” he asked me and I scoffed. “She’s more like an incompetent babysitter” I said and he sighed. “Well looks like she’s here to pick you up?” he asked and I looked at where he seemed to be looking… She seemed a little disheartened? Why because I said the truth?
“I’m sorry I'm late… I had a meeting with a counselor but I shouldn’t be late again” 
Tumblr media
y/n’s perspective
I know he hates me… an incompetent babysitter seemed about right. 
“I’m really sorry, Haechan thought this was a good idea” I apologized while he stayed silent and didn’t show a reaction to my single bed dorm… “Uhm, I know it's also weird that we’ll be sharing beds” I said and he looked confused. 
“It is the only bed here” I said and he sighed. “I’ll sleep on the floor, just don’t step on me when you wake up” he muttered. “But… we both fit–” “I’ll sleep on the floor” he was adamant. I nod… “Oh! Here, Haechan said that my financial aid covers a hybrid meal card so take care of it please” I asked and he took it and nodded. He didn’t even want to talk to me… I felt guilty as it was that I was his temporary owner but was I this incompetent? 
I guess this is exactly why I didn’t want a hybrid. I couldn’t take care of one… I can only take care of Jay for the time being and study like I was before…
Nothing more and nothing less…

HEY tell me about your boys oc
Tumblr media
You've twisted my arm, LMAO.
Time to dump my brain. My The Boys OC is PURE SELF INDULGENCE because she's basically an alt version of Tea but what if The Boys? So you know, a cringe almost self-insert OC that evolved into her own thing in my brain. She 300% only exists to smooch Homelander but as of today and runaway story ideas, MAYBE NOT.
I've got this whole vague outline of a story in my head I've taken notes on and written a few lines and drabbles for, but she'll most likely just stick in my brain cause OC x canon isn't well received and I don't have the free time to RP her with friends like I'd like.
ANYWAY - This is LONG. So LONG.
Her name is Stray, which is super not original to anyone who knows my online aliases or the fact that the first version of my vtube character was named Stray but I like short aliases and Stray is as good a name as any for a cat-based Supe.
Her supe power is that she can shapeshift into any feline. House cat, tiger, leopard, and even prehistoric cats because I want her to lay on Homelander as a polar bear sized saber. THE VISUALS.
Like Doppelganger, Stray fluidly shifts between forms in mere moments but unlike Doppelganger, these forms are all Stray. She can't transform into a visual copy of say, your pet cat.
Like Beast Boy, her animal forms are coded to her colors. She's a calico cat (surprise, surprise) if she's a house cat. A golden tabby coated tiger if she's a tiger. Basically all coat colors try to mimic orange, brown, white to some degree. If she's a lioness, it's a richer orangy hue instead of tawny.
I'd have to pin down the exact colors and make a coat pattern chart, but basically every coat is a little off on what the default is for wild cats. Enough to make you go, 'hmm that seems odd' more than seeing a big cat in a weird spot would. The other thing that's constant is her eye color, same green eyes in all forms. So her hair color / skin color reflect her cat coat patterns and her eye color is consistent, basically.
The main perk is that her supe power scales with form. She's a house cat? Well- That house cat could theoretically blast herself through your skull like Jamie the hamster and come out fine on the other side. This scales, so you get a jaguar biting you it's no longer a 1,500 PSI bite but idfk, biting through steel beams. The bigger Stray is, the more durable and the more damage she can do. Get her big enough and she could bite through Homelander's limbs. :D
The downsides are:
Stray is a perfectly normal, squishy person when not in a feline form. Very fragile, don't let near other Supes when she's a person.
She can't stay in feline form forever. Like Doppelganger, it hurts if she keeps a form for too long but she's been trained (forced) to endure it. After 24 hours, she starts to become debilitated from the pain but can push on depending on desperation level. Regardless, she'll be pretty useless quick.
Stray can be locked out of shifting or locked in a form with a metal band around her neck/wrist/ankle. Say, iron does it because uh- It's the most stable element or something which blocks Stray's atoms from doing whatever the fuck they do to reform her into various kitty cats. Having a power lock is fun for situations.
The backstory is that around the same time of Homelander's debut, Stan Edgar wanted to have a contingency plan. I don't know the exact timeline, but I assume Victoria Neuman was adopted by Edgar around that time as his backup plan for Homelander. Stray was picked up for the same reason, except she was more a creature to get locked away and trained to hate Homelander.
Her SUPER TRAGIC backstory is that she had a normal life, save for being a supe, until she turned 18. Then Vought snatched her up with the excuse of that binding Supe Contract, so her family was none the wiser that through daughter was shipped off to a lab. Meanwhile, Stray was fed some story that her family DIED HORRIBLY because of Homelander with her hatred of him encouraged subtly. Enough to make a bitch pissy, but not rampage through the lab. (That or they kept a bitch collared a lot)
Stan Edgar gets thrown in jail and Stray gets lost in the shuffle, forgotten for the most part until her file is dug up or The Boys are tipped off about something strange over in a SUPER SECRET LAB that Butcher is apparently good at finding, given how he found The Woods in Gen V.
The Boys get a new pet cat as they assume Stray is a suped up animal, since they find her collared and unable to shift. I get to write a few cute drabbles of Stray being tormented as people coo over her as a kitty cat until someone takes her collar off. Then the idiot is hell bent on revenge, which suits Butcher just fine.
She infiltrates Vought Tower by being picked up as a stray cat (haha) by Ryan Butcher. Cue Homelander having beef with a cat who keeps stealing his son's attention. Also, that cat keeps looking at him weird. More excuses to write cute fluff with Ryan getting a pet he can cuddle but can't kill. She chills in Vought Tower with Ryan, getting rather attached to the boy because he is SUCH A SWEETIE PIE.
Stray goes to chomp Homelander's head off eventually, hunting him down like prey and wrecking his shit because I just want to write Homelander being afraid. There's something fun about having Homelander hunted by a bigger predator, something primordial and feral. c:
Ryan intervenes before Stray eats Homelander and she pisses off for a bit. Also, probably dealing with a Compound V high given how much V must be in Homelander's blood.
Something something, Homelander researches the bitch who almost ate him. Figures out her weakness and there's probably MORE DRAMA with them fucking with each other. I haven't banged out the details but these lil shits will be toxic as fuck, but since Stray is a strong supe he'll want her for his supe army. Homelander even shows Stray that her family is alive and she's all, "Well fuck. Uh, my bad bro?"
Ultimately, Stray will waver between hating Vought for what they did, having some loyalty to members of The Boys for their kindness, but loyalty to Homelander and Ryan for similar. She's not a good person so she could go for the DESTROY VOUGHT or SUPE SUPERIORITY side on a coin flip.
She's just a character I want to put in situations within The Boys universe. (Sexual situations)
I want tiger!Stray sprawled out on the floor while Ryan uses her as a living lounge chair as he does his homework.
Bickering between Homelander and Stray. Stray being a VERY FUCKING ANNOYING CAT at Homelander before he knows she's a supe.
Therapy cat for Kimiko. 🥺
Butcher being a jerk and dubbing her 'Moggy'.
Stray leaving bite and claw mark scars on Homelander. c:

I’m imagining Amelia introducing Silver to her grandma, Peaches, as her boyfriend and Peaches freezing because Silver looks…familiar.
It takes a minute, but eventually it clicks and Peaches realizes Silver looks almost identical to the Knight of Dawn. The same knight who tried to kill her at some point.
The same knight who fatally injured and caused the death of Princess Meleanor. The death of the only one that just let her just exist in peace.
Peaches’s shock only grows when Lilia and Divian come into the room apologizing for being late and Silver introduces them as his adoptive parents.
The startled woman had to excuse herself with Divian and Divian explained how silver was indeed the son of the Knight of Dawn and that Lilia had found him in the bramble covered remains of Meleanor’s castle. And Peaches couldn’t really believe much of what Divian was saying. Lilia, the famous General Lilia fucking Vanrouge, the one who claimed he’s kill all humans and hated their kind with a burning passion, took in and raised the abandoned son of the very human who killed one of his oldest friends and orphaned her children?
And that child was now dating her granddaughter?
Divian had to stop Peaches from going insane and possibly killing Silver at the moment the latter realized this-
And though it took a while, Peaches was eventually calmed enough for Divian to explain how many things and how times had changed in Twisted-Wonderland after she disappeared. Though there was some tension and prejudice, things between humans and fae had grown peaceful, Night Raven College was a school where all races, humans, fae, beastmen, and even merfolk could attend and learn magic peacefully, and their old friends had relaxed and changed over the years with no more war against humans to fight. Divian explained how Baul had calmed down and now had a daughter and half human grandchildren, Malleus and Mealodie had grown beautifully and seemed to be more and more like Meleanor with each passing day, Lilia and herself had calmed down and she’d been thinking about possibly having legitimate children with Lilia when the time was right, and how Amelia had helped so many people more than anyone could imagine.
When Divian was done, she’d asked Peaches if she’d give Silver a chance, mentioning how he was a good boy and such a sweet gentleman despite being a bit airheaded at times and having chronic drowsiness.
After thinking it through, Peaches did agree to give Silver a chance, but he’d only get one. And then the following scene played out:
“Oh, you’re back!” Lilia smiled as Divian and Peaches sat down, Peaches in an arm chair facing the couch Amelia and Silver sat on and Divian in Lilia’s lap. “I was starting to think you both snuck out and we’d never hear from you again! After all, you were quite good at sneaking out with Meleanor, Peaches.”
“Well you angrily yelling and chasing after us was hilarious,” Peaches explained with a smile. “You barely even caught us most times, too.”
“Because you two cheated, of course!” Lilia retorted playfully. “I’m glad that Amelia wasn’t raised to be a cheater like you. At least your son has some decency.”
“You’re only able to catch me because I’m only a quarter fae!” Amelia pouted. “And I’m not athletic, either.”
Silver yawned, waking up from his impromptu sleep spell at the sound of his girlfriend’s voice. “It’s impressive how you can’t run to save your life but can beat Sebek ten times in a sparring session and still be ready for more,” the sleepy boy murmured.
“Well, that’s actually fun,” Amelia replied.
“She is your granddaughter,” Divian said to Peaches, who grinned mischievously.
“You can’t blame me for having some fun with Baul, can you?” she asked coyly.
“If I remember correctly, you two once had a disagreement get so out of hand you whacked him over the head with your crossbow,” Lilia deadpanned, momentarily slipping back into his old habit of treating Peaches like a small child.
“How long was he knocked out for?” Amelia asked, nudging Silver who was about to doze off again.
Peaches hummed, “About a day or two. I was really riled up, so I swung at him as hard as I could at the time. If I did it now, he’d probably be out for a week.”
“Jesus Christ, Grandma,” Amelia murmured.
“What can I say? This old woman is tough,” Peaches smiled before she turned to look at Silver. “Now, I’d like to ask you some questions, young man.”
“Yes, Mrs. Yuu?” Silver asked, straightening up and giving the older woman his full attention.
“Are you determined to make my granddaughter as happy as you can?” Peaches asked, the whites of her eyes going black with ink as she continued to speak to the silver haired boy. “And are you prepared for the consequences you shall face if you are to ever break her heart outside of dying for her?”
“Yes, Mrs. Yuu, I am,” Silver replied without missing a beat and seemingly unfazed by the black that surrounded the older woman’s orange eyes. In fact, he almost seemed expecting of it. “For all Amelia has given me, the only thing I can offer in return is my eternal devotion and all of the love I can possibly give her until I breathe my last.”
“And you’re aware that if I hear of any sort of mistreatment that I’ll hunt you down and make sure to mount you head on a plaque so you can pay for those crimes?” Peaches asked. “Because adoptive son of General Vanrouge or not, you hold in your hand one of the two post precious things to me, and you shall pay with your life if you are to smash the treasure that is my granddaughter’s heart.”
“I’d run myself through in front of you and the rest of Amelia’s family if that happened, ma’am,” Silver answered. “When I make a vow to something I fully accept the punishment to come if I am to break it. I never plan to break the promise I’ve made, but I’d accept my fate if I ever were to break it.”
Peaches hummed as she stood up and walked over to Silver, looking down at him as her eyes faintly glowed oh so ominously.
“H-Hey, Grandma! Silver! We-We get it! Please stop staring at each other!” Amelia babbled out nervously, the tension in the air basically tearing her apart.
But Peaches continued to stare at Silver, who maintained complete eye contact, for a moment before her eyes returned to normal and she smiled brightly. “Oh, you are a good boy!” Peaches smiled as she swooped down and hugged Silver tightly. “I’m so happy Divi wasn’t lying to me about that! Such a well behaved and well mannered boy like you is perfect for my Amelia!”
“Thank you, Mrs. Yuu,” Silver murmured, seemingly used to sudden bursts of affection.
“Oh, please, just call me Grandma, honey,” Peaches beamed as she moved away and held Silver’s face in her hands. “After all, I’m sure a wedding isn’t too far away!”
“GRANDMA!”

Tickletober Day 15- “Are You Ticklish?”
The question caught Pomni off guard, considering who it came from.
“U-Uh what?”
Kinger blinked at the jester girl whom he’d pretty much adopted as his daughter in the circus.
“Was my question unclear? Sorry, let me repeat that.”
Kinger inhaled as if he was about to ask the question at the top of his lungs. Pomni was quick to stop him before the entire circus heard him.
“No! No, I heard you, Kinger. I just- well, it caught me a little off guard.”
Kinger exhaled the breath he’d been holding, no doubt to scream his question.
“Ah, I see. So?”
Pomni blinked.
“So, what?”
“Are you ticklish?”
Pomni was torn between answering truthfully or denying the fact the she was in fact, extremely ticklish.
Kinger seemed to pick up on her hesitation.
“It’s okay, you don’t have to tell me if it makes you uncomfortable, Pomni. I’m just curious, that’s all.”
Kinger laced his fingers together in front of him, patiently waiting to hear Pomni’s response.
Pomni was quiet for a bit longer. Kinger seemed genuinely curious. And it was rare for her to see the more lucid side of the chess piece character like this. What harm could telling him do?
“Eh, yeah, I’m pretty ticklish, but please don’t tell anyone! Especially Jax.”
Kinger blinked his bug like eyes at Pomni and didn’t respond immeasurably, causing the young jester girl to wonder if he had gone back into his less sane state again.
Just when Pomni was about to ask if Kinger was okay, he spoke.
“Queenie and I used to have tickle fights, y’know. Although I usually came out on the losing side.”
Pomni found herself leaning towards Kinger as she always did when he’d talk about his wife. He reminded her of an old grandpa who had dementia, but once and awhile, when it was just the two of them, jester and chess piece, he would have a lucid moment, often about his wife.
“Really? No offense, but I didn’t think you were ticklish, Kinger.”
Kinger chuckled fondly, shaking his head.
“No offense taken, you’re the only one besides my wife and probably Caine who knows. But boy, Queenie and I would have fun.”
Pomni watched as a wistful, melancholy expression crossed her friends face.
“You must miss her a lot.”
Kinger sighed.
“I miss her terribly. Every single day.”
Pomni hated how down Kinger looked, so she decided to do something bold (hah, she could be brave an assertive! Take that Jax.)
“Kinger…. Erm… would you, like to be tickled? By me?”
Kinger looked a bit surprised.
“Are you sure? You don’t have to.”
Pomni smiles. Normally she’d be on the receiving end of tickles, but right now she wanted to make her friend smile.
“I don’t mind if you don’t.”
Kinger thought for a moment or two before saying,
“Alright. What harm could a little tickling do? But I must warn you, I’m very ticklish.”
Pomni giggled and scooted closer as Kinger spoke.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
She waited for Kinger to lift his hands bed she carefully poked his side. She hadn’t expected much of a reaction considering he had a very thick robe, but almost instantly Kinger jumped back with a laugh.
“S-Sorry.”
Pomni said, waiting for Kinger to give her the okay to continue.
“It’s alright. I’m just not used to it anymore.”
Kinger scooted back into place and nodded at Pomni.
“Go ahead, I’m ready this time.”
Pomni smiled at him and tickled him again.
This time, Kinger laughed and squirmed, but he didn’t pull away this time.
She kept this up for a few minutes, laughing along with Kinger. A real, genuine laugh echoed through both of them until they both collapsed into the pillow fort, gasping and chuckling.
“Hehey, Pomni?”
“Yes, Kinger?”
“Thank you. You made me feel like my old self again.”
Pomni smiled.
“No problem Kinger. I’m glad you had fun.”
“Yeah, and Pomni?”
“Hmm?”
“Where did you say you were ticklish?”

AITA for causing my husband to divorce me?
Me and my ex-husband (both 32M) were together for 16 years, and married for 8 of them. I'm a kitsuin but for the majority of my life I've lived in non-kitsish territory, and one day while we were with our adopted daughter (11) and our mutual friend at a park I decided to pull him away and tell him, since I felt bad about never letting him know.
He got very upset with me about not telling him from the start, and I tried to defend myself with the fact we'd barely known eachother and I had no reason to. In the end, he accused me of being a terrorist, said he hated me, demanded a divorce, and stormed off.
He warned if I didn't give him full custody, among other things, in the divorce agreement, he would tell the local police about my species.
I feel so torn, we met in highschool, joined the military together, and lived in our (now his) house together, even if I was the one to pay for it. I was arrested as a child simply for being kitsish as a child, and I was terrified of it happening again which is why it took so long for me to tell him. I'm worried I've messed everything up.
I'm worried my daughter will think I don't love her.

Felt like writing some headcanons and fun facts for some of my beloved Disney-OC's, since I haven't talked about them in a really long while + I love them a ton, they deserve more attention from me anyway 🥺
This post will get long, so lol, sorry in advance! I ramble a lot <3
Miles (McLeach's son):
Miles might now be a much more calmer and patient adult... but as a kid, he was an absolute menace. Always loving to pull some pranks on his father and anybody else unfortunate in his close vicinity. He was mischievous and quite hyper too, climbing onto anything and anyone. Or breaking furniture by climbing on surfaces, lamps etc and knocking them down. He basically had near never-ending zoomies, lmao /j
Miles's second name is Ronnie. Though he only ever uses it as a name for his disguises, if he needs to hide his identity from the authorities.
Miles hates 'Mother's day'-holidays, though for a good reason. As he deeply dislikes his mother for various reasons. He hasn't had an easy childhood
Miles loves playing the guitar or singing sometimes (much like his father), even if he's not good at it.
Miles and Alice didn't get along well after they first met, and they still do bicker from time to time. Fighting or pranking each other a lot. Which causes people often to mistakenly think that they're siblings, when they're actually not. Though yeah, they still do act like they're siblings. Miles can be pretty protective over Alice and defends her from dangers if ever necessary, meanwhile Alice often helps him out too if ever needed. Despite seeming like rivals, they actually deeply care about each other.
Miles would probably be in his late 60's now in 2024 (as during RDU's events, he's 35).... yeah, terrifying, isn't it? My guy is so old, he's ancient- /j
Alice (McLeach's henchman / sort-of adoptive daughter):
Alice is a rude loudmouth, who cusses and curses a ton. She's the type of person, who will let her opinions be known and she doesn't respect the law. She's one heck of a fighter too, able to defend herself if ever necessary.
Alice loves 1980's music, especially 80's pop and rock! Her favorite bands are Depeche Mode and Tears For Fears.
Alice is terrible at cooking... when in all honesty, everybody in the McLeach household is terrible at cooking any foods. There's a kitchen fire at least once or twice a week. /j
Alice is bisexual, but prefers women.
Alice is skilled in shoplifting, pickpocketing and vandalism.
Alice is rather secretive when it comes to her past and she doesn't like talking about it, due to various reasons; one being that she's had a rough tragic past. And other being that she's actually a fugitive in another country, which she had to flee from some years ago before meeting McLeach.
One of Alice's favorite pastime hobbies is fixing old computers and other electronics. She often helps McLeach out gladly, whenever it comes to any mechanical work or modifying electronics.
Alice also likes to collect different kinds of knives, just for fun mainly.
Ophelia (Sykes's daughter):
Ophelia doesn't have many friends, in fact she's never really had any. She often spent time in various dinner parties etc held by her father's rich influential friends, but she never got along well with the other children there. She was teased in school, when she was little. But even after telling about it to her protective father; she was completely left alone by the bullies and teachers afterwards, but because of everyone becoming extremely afraid of both her and her father. Thus avoiding her altogether or acting cautious around her.
Ophelia used to wear ribbons on her hair nearly all the time in her childhood. And now she likes to have a typical big 1980's hairstyle, because she can <3
Ophelia can be quite charismatic. But not exactly a very sociable person, often preferring to spend time either alone or with her father only.
Ophelia loves her father's dogs. She spoils them rotten often with expensive meat or treats (much to her father's dismay), or takes them on walks. She's the type of person who would get the dogs those really itchy-looking dog sweaters for Christmas, lmao
Ophelia is good at playing the piano, playing the violin, playing tennis, dancing ballet, boxing and also acting. She had lots of hobbies as a kid and overall she had lots of after-school activities. She also had excellent grades in every school she attended.
Before she turned to the criminal lifestyle, she used to work as a secretary at a highly regarded unnamed company. She grew bored of the mundane office work though and eventually got laid off too, due to some issues within the company. Incredibly bitter by this, she decided to turn to life of crime, as she found it quite natural to herself. It just seemed much more fascinating and thrilling than boring paperworks.
Zachary (Rourke's son):
Zachary might look intimidating with his tall height (as he's around 190 centimeters tall, much like his father) and muscular large build. He's however a kind gentle guy, quite sensitive and a bit shy too.
Zachary is quite strong too, but has never been fond of fighting or combat. Much to his father's dismay though, as he then is a combative argumentative person. Meanwhile Zachary does everything to avoid arguments or conflict.
Zachary is a very artistic person, as he's always loved arts and painting. Drawing and doodling all sorts of things, and admiring the creative beauty in nearly everything. He enjoys things that are aesthetically pleasing to him and he often gets inspired easily by his surroundings.
Zachary is basically the total opposite personality than that of his father's, lmao. They're complete opposites, despite having similar appearances. Thus their relationship has never been exactly the best, but rather distant instead.

Pleasantview shenanigans
I had some time to actually play my game recently, so I popped in on the premades before I head into my custom neighborhood to add some of my Sims friends' characters.
First off, I got the Burbs settled into @anhedonicworm's makeover. John really enjoys gardening and nature and I can relate. Unfortunately bees are also in nature and he decided to run into the house while Lucy was visiting with her best friend, Beau, after school.
Tumblr media
It resulted in the best screenshot I've ever taken in all my years of playing yet, I don't even care about Tumblr crunching the quality:
Tumblr media
"NOT THE BEEEEEES!"
Sorry John, there are very much bees. Please get them out of the front room before they spread.
Lucy and Beau are in the midst of a pillow fight and ignore the fiasco- priorities, after all.
Tumblr media
John and Jennifer tried for their second baby and the pregnancy was very hard on her. She got stuck in the void of being too tired to eat and too hungry to sleep and died after giving birth from starvation. I had set out so many different meals and snacks for her, but her lack of brain cells sim nature won in the end. She and John nearly had a max relationship and good chemistry, so I'm not sure why he couldn't save her when I don't have a mod for that.
Tumblr media
Lucy grew up and unfortunately her birthday party fell through because Lilith and Angela were kicking the glitter out of each other the entire time, but she became a family Sim since she has a very strong relationship with her dad. She absolutely adores her baby brother, Branson, and doesn't mind helping John out with him without being asked.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, the Caliente sisters are the messiest neighbors in the neighborhood. I decided to incorporate their alien heritage using @midgethetree's reproductive controller's alien token. It's had some interesting effects with Nina's many rendezvouses.
She and Darren had a fling that resulted in a pregnancy on his part. The relationship dissolved when he caught Nina with Brandi and he's now raising their infant daughter, Darla.
Upon loading a fresh copy of fixed Pleasantview, Mortimer was rolling wants for Dina and Nina, more so Nina even though they'd only just met and not flirted with each other, so this happened.
Mortimer was jilted from his divorce with Bella after she became pregnant by Don Lothario and Cassandra called off her engagement.
He also caught Dina with Don when he visited the restaurant they went to as an NPC. Crusty old codger went into rebound desperation.
Tumblr media
I mixed some mods together (not Inteenimater, I hate that) and wanted to add more drama and explain Lilith's strained relationship with her parents. I went back in Sim PE before playing and gave her the same growing up milestones as Angela and only had the memory of growing up badly as a teenager instead of both. I've tried getting them to apologize but all Angela wants to do is instigate fights.
Tumblr media
I'm trying to overcome some of my tokophobia. When I first started playing I had my Sims adopt all of their children because it grossed me out so much- so, progress I guess?
Tumblr media
Lilith and Dirk are about to head off to college since they both rolled the want. Since Lilith has such a good relationship with Coral and Herb, she's going to be moving into their home.
Mary-Sue and Daniel just had their newborn son, Jeffery, and she caught Daniel with Kaylynn (because I hate Daniel lol) and divorced him. Lilith has been working very hard for most of her life stage while Angela has been fixated on her new boyfriend, Alexander Goth which caused her grades to suffer. Their academic standing swapped but Angela has mellowed and they haven't fought as much as they did when they were younger.

OC Interview Tag
Thank you so much for the tag, @kaylinalexanderbooks!!!! (here)
I'll go with Nimwen from Of Starlight and Beasts because I don't think I've done one of these for her yet!
Are you named after anyone?
"I was named after my paternal grandmother. My parents' marriage was severely looked down upon by my mother's side of the family, because Dad wasn't of noble birth. They decided to choose the name because it was a nice keeping my grandma's memory alive but also a little bit as a way to stick it to my maternal grandparents. Her relatives never really got over their union, and didn't rest until they got the King himself - who was apparently a family friend - to annul my parents' marriage. Her family then arranged for Mom to marry some random noble from a 'proper House' - despite her protests - and cast my father and I out of their social circle."
When was the last time you cried?
"Hmm. That's uh... quite the question, isn't it? Very personal all of the sudden, y'know (her hands squirm and she laughs awkwardly). Let's just say... I have nightmares, and some of them are more... severe than others and sometimes end up crying because of it. I had one recently. I won't go into detail about the dreams though - that's not for you to know. Only Scarlet knows, and even he doesn't know the extra gory details."
Do you have kids?
"Certainly not! I'm barely a grownup and I don't think I should be left in charge of anyone other than myself - Scarlet is always going on like (she mimics her adoptive brother's voice and tone) 'why don't you take care of yourself?' or 'didn't you think this through before doing it? Again, Nim?', so maybe I perhaps might not be the most responsible person to grace this earth. I know, shocking. (giggles). But in all seriousness, I have far too much going on in my life to even think about something like that in the coming years - unless you count my friend Syp as a kid, because he's the youngest of our bunch and is always following me like a little shadow."
Do you use sarcasm a lot?
"No, not really. I'm usually too nervous about hurting someone's feelings or being misunderstood in what I'm trying to say or causing a mess, to the point that I somehow end up just fumbling over my words and making a fool out of myself. Scarlet is the king of sarcasm though, he always knows what to say or how to come up with a sarcastic quip at the right timing. I'm not that lucky (laughs awkwardly). He says I'm fine the way I am and that I don't need to change to be like others, but I do wish I was more eloquent like him."
What’s the first thing you notice about people?
"If they're dangerous or could be a potential threat. I've learned the hard way not to trust too many strangers and still struggle with a lot of... ghosts from my past, per se, looking to strike me down so I've got to be on the lookout for anyone that looks like they could work for the King or the Royal Guard. I also notice their stance and if I can use the terrain around us to my advantage to escape if need be."
What’s your eye colour?
"Dark blue, like my Mom's! I've got Dad's long strawberry blond hair to remember him by though, so that's nice. It's like I've got a little bit of both of them with me at all times - which is comforting, and sad, and a little bit weird. But nice."
Scary movies or happy endings?
"Happy endings, happy endings all the way! I hate scary stories - there's enough terror, and gore and violence and hatred in our world, why should we be subjected to those things in the very fiction that is meant to let us escape it? I hate when the other kids in our bunch start telling horror stories when we're gathered around the campfire - it usually leaves me up all night thinking about it! I know this is probably very silly of me. But I still don't like scary stories one bit and I will keep not liking them until the end of time itself because I don't like being scared."
Any special talents?
"I'm very good at hiding - when you're the daughter of someone who was executed for treason he didn't commit, you learn to hide like your life depends on it, because it really does. Scarlet has also taught me how to shoot the bow and arrow, and I'm... average at it. If I really, really focus I can hit close to the target of my choice, or even hit the target itself if I'm lucky, but if I have to do so whilst moving that arrow is missing the target by a mile. I also know how to sew and embroider, as well as play the harp, which are things my father taught me when I was a child and I haven't really done in a while, so I wouldn't know whether or not I'm still any good at it."
Where were you born?
"I was born in the city of Sylla - which used to belong to another kingdom but was annexed by Tirawen around forty years ago. My Mom comes from a long line of Tirawenian nobles, who moved to Sylla when she was a child because they were given land - a lot of land - in the conquered terrioty by the royal family. My Dad came from a local family of much humbler standing, and he'd risen in the ranks of society by pursuing a career as dyplomat. It didn't end well, as you probably already realized."
Do you have any pets?
"Scarlet has a pet hawk called Arrow! I consider it my pet as well. My brother has trained Arrow to carry messages for us and to hunt. Sometimes he also sends it to scout terrain ahead to check if it's safe for us to pass. Arrow is the most adorable, cutest little bird of prey you'll ever hope to meet! He loves snacks and always chirps happily when you pet his feathers!"
What sort of sports do you play?
"Oh, many! The other kids in our little group of 'outlaws' are always coming up with new things to spend our time doing, so I'm never bored! If anything I'm the opposite. I'm also very good at running, climbing and jumping! And as I mentioned I have a passable knowledge of archery."
How tall are you?
"I would say average height, I never really put much thought into measuring my height, but I seem to be somewhere in the middle between tall and short. Scarlet is very, very tall, so I don't think he counts as a comparison, but my height is similar to that of most of our friends."
What was your favourite subject in school?
"... I uh, didn't really get to attend any of the schools and academies of the kingdom. With the whole 'my dad getting beheaded for treason' ordeal happened when I was really young so I didn't really get a chance. But I think I would've liked to attend the royal academies - I used to love books!!! I still do, but there aren't many opportunities to read when you're living in the forests as an outlaw."
What is your dream job?
"Okay, now, don't laugh, but when I was a little kid I used to dream of growing up to be a pirate - I loved reading tales about pirate adventures and the sort, and couldn't wait to see the ocean one day. I even got a cute little pirate costume for my sixth birthday! But I do realize now real life pirates probably aren't really that nice though. Nowadays I would say my dream job is to become something like a physician or an apothecary - I would love to help more people, especially those who don't have the means to afford healing, because the kingdom all too often tends to forget they exist."

Requesting info on the 6th house au you were posting about bc yo that sounds cool
You can't see it through a screen but I'm like
Actually physically vibrating.
I came up with this AU over a year ago and it was basically "what if Alexi (my Nerevarine) just. Joined the 6th House instead of killing Dagoth Ur?"
The timing of WHEN she joined has changed a bit (from right before the fight to when she meets Dagoth Gares) and the REASONING has changed a lot (from "I don't actually like Morrowind, fuck them dudes" to "I have 0 support system and have a child and I've been sucked into a cult") but the very very basic premise is the same.
It was initially my crack AU where I couldn't tell if I wanted to ship Alexi and Dagoth Ur or not. And now it has like... Dementia metaphors. How did this even happen.
Anyways, the story ACTUALLY follows Alexi's daughter (who's never been Dagoth Ur's, no matter when in this AU's history you look). Her arc used to be centered around a lot of confusion as to why people hated her, and why things were happening, etc etc. Now she's actually gonna do something about it in the end. I'm gonna have so many random thoughts at the bottom of this just. Smushed in.
It also went from Armina being the one with zero support system to now she has an adopted sister and also a best friend/love interest when she's older. Terastelle Telvanni (sister) save me.. save me Terastelle Telvanni...
Anywho, the story has like... 2 main plots: Armina learning her dad is ✨terrible✨ and Alexi progressing through Corprus and becoming Nerevar (and losing Alexi). I will just say, though, to Armina and Tera, since they're actually IN the cult, Dagoth Ur is not a menacing figure until they know what's going on outside the mountain. I'm writing a scene where Armina literally drags him around. He's not Dagoth Ur to those kids, he's just dad.
Anyway, Alexi holds the Tools of Kagrenac (from the original au) for the most part, and she used them to manipulate the Heart to make sure her children wouldn't get Corprus (side effect was about a generation can't get it because she didn't know how to specify well). Alexi, however, DOES get it, and it leads to her physically and mentally becoming Nerevar, if that makes sense? The way it affects her is it morphs her body to be more similar to his, and it degrades her mind until she's left with only his memories and personality. And her kids have to watch it in real time 👍.
Anyway, back to the main cast: Armina, Terastelle, and Teldryn Sero. The last one was not planned.
All three represent both the main 3 star signs, as well as the Good 3 Daedra, AND they fall into "bad Daedra" counterparts later
Armina is half Bosmer and half Dunmer, and she's the Warrior and representation of Mephala (cause she's in a web of lies) and she falls to Clavicus Vile in a search for power to destroy Dagoth Ur. She fights with a big ol' 2-handed sword.
Terastelle is half Dunmer and half Altmer, she's the Mage and the representation of Boethiah. My violence wins mage <3. She falls to Malacath because of how she's treated in the cult (not as badly as those outside of the mountain, but less well than Armina, because even though Armina isn't a full Dunmer, she's also Nerevar's child, so she gets a pass). Tera gets motivated by vengeance after she learns her parents were murdered by the cult. This goes interestingly for her. Idk if she gets really hurt by it or not, but she's very scorches earth about "no Dagoth survivors" just like how her family had no survivors.
Teldryn is the thief who represents Azura, and he's the only full Dunmer in the gang, but he's from outside the mountain. When he's introduced, Blacklight is the most recent addition to the house. He falls to Sheogorath (seeking a middle ground led him to insanity or something, idk). He fights with pretty much his normal fighting style from Skyrim, which is pretty mixed. I need to develop him more in the context of the AU, but I'll get to that after this.
Anywho, random thoughts now!
As the Warrior, Armina protects the Steed from the Serpent, and Alexi's sign is the Steed 👍
Both Alexi and Armina are trying to save the people they love, in different ways, and in the end, both fail.
Is my HoK still Sheogorath or is it normal Sheo?
Armina can manipulate dreams which is part of what pushes her to be Dagoth Ur's favorite child.
The way the story is written changes as Armina grows up and then learns more about the cult. Slow-burn horror 👍
I get to write Clavicus Vile at some point, I'm excited.
Armina asking Alexi why she doesn't wear layers and Alexi trying to find a way to answer that isn't "because I don't expect to have skin for much longer anyway”. The answer she ends up going with is "Mountain's too damn hot" and then starts crying whenever her daughter leaves the room
Alexi's character in that AU is so interesting to me
Like, she's technically placed very high in the hierarchy, probably second to Dagoth Ur himself, yet she's got next to no power because those she loves would be in danger if she tried anything
Anyways, I'm writing for this, drawing for it, and I'll start posting more stuff once I have the first bit of the story written and the portrait finished. Have a Tera for your time <3
Tumblr media
I love you, Terastelle Telvanni...

Tagged by the lovely @keldae. (I didn't forget about this I swear…)
Thing of note, I am an unashamed Canon x OC/Reader fan soooo take that for what you will. lol
3 Ships
Joshua Rosfield/Suraya Murdoch (Final Fantasy 16) These two have lived rent-free in my head and my soul since Final Fantasy 16 game out. Still waiting for it to come to PC so I can actually play it but I digress. Hasn't stopped my brain from coming up with something. Somehow their story ended up being childhood friends to lovers to boot. Normally I go for an older man, younger woman vibe. But for these two? It's reversed and it's wild and I adore it. Joshua being the inheritor of the Rosarian Duchy and Suraya being the adopted daughter of Rodney and Hanna Murdoch. So, the two of them inadvertently got pushed together during the early years since her father wanted her to get the most out of her upbringing, self-defense being a top priority along with her studies. Suraya was and still is incredibly protective of Joshua's happiness and hated his mother with a burning passion for how she treated all of them, even to her own detriment. That said, Joshua formed feelings first when they were children, but never had a chance to speak of them before the fall of Phoenix Gate. So it was years before anything could happen. Suraya on the other hand, never had a chance to even think about it until they were reunited, and she had to come to terms with the fact that her ten-year-old friend was no longer a boy, but was actually a young man determined to bring her the happiness and joy she gave him, should she wish it.
Vergil/Alya (Devil May Cry) These two shitheads have also been living rent-free in my head since 2019 and have given me at least five different massive fanfic reworks since then. And it continues to morph and change so I just keep flipping my desk over at this point. Anyway, for these two it was never an overt thing. They pretty much fell together without ever explicitly talking about it as neither was looking for a relationship. Behind the scenes Dante was over Vergil's bullshit, Trish and Lady were over Alya's bullshit, and Nero was like: fuck that I'm not getting involved, and watched from the sidelines with Nico who had a betting pool that everyone was in on much to the pair's annoyance after the fact. Either way, Alya wanted answers after her father was murdered and Devil May Cry is who ended up coming to her aid. To that end, it opens up a massive can of demons and angels. But those angels aren't your traditional light and loving kind. Having the upbringing Vergil had, or lack thereof after his mother's death, he was always wary about opening up again, and in many ways still is, but Alya takes it in stride. And for that, Vergil is silently grateful. In turn, he is her protector and rock, and a good listening ear. What he can't say in verbal words, he will say in written poetry. This is more of my status quo, older man, younger woman vibe, but with the added bonus of magic, demons, and a slow-burn romance.
Graha Tia/Khulan Noykin (Final Fantasy 14) Listen, when I got into Final Fantasy 14 back during ARR, me and my Warrior of Light didn't think too much of the Allagan cat boy. He was a friend, nothing more to her at the time, and while she did mourn for him when he locked himself in the Crystal Tower, she also understood. Plus, she was dealing with her own feelings for a certain rogue bard soon-to-be gunbreaker. It wasn't until Shadowbringers that Graha Tia came in dropkicking Khulan in the face, and Thancred being a complete ass didn't help. Khulan during this time saw much of herself in Graha Tia's willingness to die for a cause and hated it. Not him of course, but seeing a mirror of some of your faults is never a fun thing. As their friendship developed after defeating Emet Selch, it eventually became a dance around the subject of feelings. Graha never feeling like he was good enough for her and Khulan feeling the exact same way but of herself towards him. Everyone else saw it as it was blatantly obvious, but the events of Endwalker came before anything could become of it. Khulan ends up in a dark place during this time, almost robotic like her ARR self, but a lot more deadly than her early days of being just an arcanist. It's when she begins losing her friends that the walls around her heart begin to break, and Graha's sacrifice was the breaking point. When all of it was over and they were back home, the two of them start to explore something more as Khulan recovered from her fight with Zenos. Now, going into the events of Dawntrail, me nor Khulan know where this is going to go. But hey! it's a new adventure!
First Ship
We're going back to when I was but a small eight/nine year old child and loved Ash and Misty as a pairing. During this time I didn't know what fandom was or that people wrote fanfic and created art. So it was mostly me creating terrible drawings. Did I self insert into pokemon as well? Of course I did! lol
Last Song
"The Phoenix" from Fall Out Boy. I just discovered it after find a GMV for Final Fantasy 16. It was so good I had to find it in my Apple Music and is now on repeat. I regret nothing regarding my hyperfixation.
Currently Reading
"A Court of Thorns and Roses" by Sarah J. Maas. Yes I'm late to the game, but hey! I made it! Am I only on chapter 3? Also yes, but hey, I'll get throgh it eventually.
Last Film
I think it was Mission Impossible 3? It was on at work so it was just background noise.
Currently Craving
A vacation. A true, real, good vacation. Tagging anyone who wants to do it

y/n’s perspective
“No,” I said and he sighed. “Please y/nnie! He needs a home!” Haechan pouted and I scoffed. “Then you take care of him! I don’t have the time to take care of a hybrid…” I muttered and he chuckled.
“Which is exactly why you need one… he's very low maintenance, actually he can take care of himself. I think you need someone to take care of you” he said and I sighed… 
“I don’t need anyone to take care of me,” I said and he sighed… “Have you eaten today?” he asked and I sighed. “I didn’t have the time… I was studying–” “You’re always studying… Jay can help take care of you” he suggested and I shook my head.
“I couldn’t do that to him… he needs a good home,” I said and he smiled. “He’s had so many owners and yet none cared to keep him. All of them had all the money he could ever want…” he said and I sighed… 
“I really need to keep this scholarship, Haechan–” “How about a deal?” he asked and I knew I shouldn’t trust him but anything to make him shut up
“If under your care, you fail your next bio midterm, I'll find someone else… but if you can handle it please show him a good home” he begged and I sighed. “Fine…” I said not knowing what else to do about the whiny junior in front of me. 
“Okay! Let me text Mark that you agreed!” He said and I scoffed. Of course Mark was also involved… Eventually he came with a hybrid next to him.
“Ok, Jay here is a bird hybrid so he can only wear collars… he goes to the classes available on campus and Riki the devil hybrid’s lovely angelic owner got a new collar for him because I asked so nicely!” he said and I sighed.. 
“Hey you never know, by adopting a hybrid maybe the principal's daughter will be impressed by you” Mark said and my eyes widened. “You think?” I asked now hopeful and they chuckled. 
“I don’t get why you admire her so much…” Haechan said and I smiled. “Cause she’s so sweet, and she actually offered the scholarship to me. Without her I wouldn’t be in this school” I said and he sighed.
“Maybe I should ask her to pay my tuition,” Haechan said and Mark laughed. “Good luck, she won’t even pay for Jisung’s meal card, '' he said and I looked at the hybrid who only awkwardly stood there looking at the ground. 
“Hello! I’m y/n… I don’t think I'll be your permanent owner but I’ll try my best in the time we’re together” I said and he nodded. He was really pretty…
“We’ll let you guys get acquainted” Haechan said as he left us two. “What do you like to do Jay?” I asked and he shrugged. He seemed very silent… this was gonna be very awkward then. “I hope I don’t make you uncomfortable… I do live in a single dorm but it is quite small” I said and he still didn’t say a word. 
Did he hate me already? I know Haechan said his previous owners were all of the rich kids on campus but… I couldn’t afford the lifestyle they can, I can only afford this school because of my scholarship that I was given another chance with. 
“Jay… I hope we can get along”
Tumblr media
jay’s perspective
I can’t believe I got replaced by a mutt and was now left with her… I was still given my classes but this was all ridiculous! So when I saw him walk in front of me with new designer clothes and a new collar more expensive than anything my new temporary owner owns, it pissed me off. 
What did he have that I didn’t?! The puppy looks?!  
“She’s your owner now huh?”  I said when he turned to look at me disappointed to see me… We weren’t exactly friends…
“I hope you enjoy it, she’s a bitch who doesn’t know how to do anything herself. You constantly complain and are gonna make you do so many stupid things just to humiliate you!” I said letting the anger get to me… she really was the worst. All of them were.
“She wouldn’t do that” he muttered and I scoffed, I don’t know I was so angry that I grabbed his shirt enough to get aggressive with him... “You’ve suddenly changed from rags to riches and think it doesn’t come for a price!” I said… funny it's almost like we switched spots. 
“You know nothing about– I knew you were hurt but–” “Why are you suddenly mentioning her?” I asked, now confused… e/n was his owner, wasn’t he? “She adopted me… not like it's any of your business,” he said and I sighed… so she didn’t adopt him? Or did she just beat her to it?
“Is the free trial bird causing you trouble? I would too if I suddenly lost everything and suddenly became a freeloading hybrid!” Sunghoon laughed and I scoffed.
“You shouldn’t be laughing? From what I heard your owner doesn’t even know–""Shut up before I make sure this pretty little bird can’t sing again” he threatened… 
“Sore subject? I wouldn’t want to remember you either, Sunghoon '' I said and he glared not saying anything else as I sat down in a different seat than I normally would. 
First Riki now Jake? They both got the happy endings they want… don’t they? So… what about me?

The delicate silence of the early morning was shattered as Fiorenze rocketed up out of a deep sleep, her breathing ragged as she scrambled to grab the journal and pen on her nightstand — unseating Rue from the nest the little cat had carefully tamped down next to her hip, something the feline protested with an offended mew. Her dream rapidly, tragically, slipped through the sieve that was her waking mind. 
It was heartbreaking for reasons she couldn’t articulate. 
Every time she had the dream she felt at peace. Somewhere that was home, warm and fully comfortable. But she couldn’t remember where, or with who. Only that it was bright, the same way Silvermoon was at noon in the spring. 
She stared into the darkness of her small room in the unimpressive apartment she lived in, the chill of the morning seeping in now that her duvet had been thrown off, heart thundering in her chest as the reality of her situation once again sank in. The stark dichotomy was enough to make her sob. 
Sleep never came back to claim her. 
Her fingers drummed on the counter at Emeli’s Blooms, the florist shop she’d been working at for a couple of months, the daylight hours crawling by. Orders had been impossibly slow since the Children’s holiday had ended. The bells above the door chimed and she stood up a little straighter, unfortunately recognizing the purple clad woman that stepped over the threshold with a too-pleased smile. 
It has been decades since she’d seen Aradana Mirthstar, third daughter of another noble family that had crumbled under the weight of time. She’d stayed in Dalaran after their graduation, proud to adopt it as her place, even as the rest of her friends and family returned to Quel’thalas after the foundering of the alliance between humans and elves. 
There was nowhere to hide. Emeli was out on an errand and wouldn’t be back. Fiorenze’s stomach dropped into a pit, shame rising as she plastered on a fake smile, hoping she looked different enough that recognition wouldn’t land. 
Aradana’s bright smile immediately let her know that wasn’t the case, “Fiorenze! My goodness, you look wonderful. Pyraelia told me I’d be able to find you here.” 
That traitor. “Did she? Ah, well. Yes. This… is… where I work. Are you here for a bouquet or a bigger order for an event?” She busied herself with getting the ledger, ready to expedite this entire conversation. 
“Not at all, I’m here for you! Is this a bad time?” Aradana brushed her silken straight blonde hair back and glanced around the rest of the shop, taking notes on the utter lack of business. 
It wasn’t, but it was. Fiorenze maintained her smile and shrugged airily, “I suppose it’s not. What can I do for you, Aradana?”
“I have a proposition for you, your sister thought it would be a good idea. It’s been a while, I know, but I work for the Council of Six now and I wanted to ask before doing; we have an opening for an ambassador to Silvermoon. You have a track record of excellence with the Magistry and it seems…” Aradana looked around the florist shop again with a wry smile on her face, “a bit more your stride than this.” 
That was affirming in a strange way. She didn’t hate working at Emeli’s, but it wasn’t the most engaging work. It did give her more ability to train with Yserina whenever she wanted. Becoming one of the ambassadors to Silvermoon would absolutely vex a non-zero number of nobles and governmental figures in Quel’thalas. She’d be able to solve puzzles and broker deals on a higher scale again. It was an extremely tempting offer, “...I’m listening.” 
“It’s not a promise by any means, but if you’d like me to put your name forward I’d be more than happy to. With your citizenship and your sister as a well regarded scholar and archive keeper here I have no doubts you’d be a top candidate,” Aradana leaned on the counter and smiled, she’d always been annoyingly pretty, “You don’t have any other relationships that might cause an issue, do you?” 
Xylaes hadn’t reached out to her in months, and was unlikely to ever again. Resentment often turned into hate, so it really wasn't too surprising that he hadn't. Fiorenze bit the inside of her cheek before shaking her head, “No, I don’t. If you think it’s a good idea, please, I’m interested to see the process at least even if the outcome leaves you with a better candidate.” 
Her former classmate pushed herself back to stand up straight again and clapped, clearly pleased, “Excellent. I’ll get everything started this afternoon. Before I go, what do you have that would look good in my office?” 
It was a little demeaning, but Fiorenze tried to take no offense as she pulled together lilacs, mountain laurels and saxifrage.
(Small @xylaes mention!)
