How do you think Cid would react to one of the boys wanting to date Cindy?
𝐀𝐧𝐨𝐧 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 // always accepting
I have honestly thought of this for a stupid long time. Given that Cindy is basically Cid’s baby girl and has been protective of her since she was born; more so after her parents’ parting. She is literally the only family he has left, so there’s some high level of protectiveness going on. Sure, he knows she can take care of herself and can no doubt put the hurt on someone if they step out of line, but still, he’s always going to be there for that added support in her corner. That being said, let's get to it. Also, you could ask Cid directly over at mastermechaniic ( totally not a shameless plug ) but it's cool x3 Hennyway...
Prompto:
I think right out of the gate, Cid would give Prompto a hard time, knowing from jump that he had a crush on Cindy. But it's mostly in a lighthearted "hazing" kinda way. Writing him opposite @battleshot is pretty fun as it seems Cid thrives on getting those nervous reactions out of him, it makes Prom seem more genuine in his eyes. He honestly thinks it's too wholesome for words and may also think Prom might not be able to handle a woman like Cindy ( We know this to be false as Prom is very capable owo ) but does see them as a good match.
Gladio:
Ok tbh If Cid caught the way Gladdy was trying to flirt with Cindy the first time they met, on sight he'd snatch that boy up with the quickness. I think Gladio kinda reminds Cid of himself in his younger younger, and not in the most positive way. However, there's also that slight inner conflict given his connection and friendship with Clarus. Like, he knows Gladio is a good kid, that he's intelligent and would probably be as protective over Cindy as he is, but, ya know there's probably gonna be that "I'm watchin' you O.o" vibe for a little bit. And as I'm typing this, I'm not sure if I've really bugged @strictomiles with Paw-Paw yet.... should get on that XD
Ignis:
Not as apprehensive as the rest of the boys. It’s safe to say that Iggy has garnered some brownie ( kinda pun kinda intended) points in the beginning. Knowing Ignis seems to be the more level-headed one out of the bunch ( also considering @tenebriism has occasionally.. I wouldn't say bribed Cid with desserts on Wire buuuuuut I'm not gonna say it's not a good strategy either >.> ) it puts his mind more at ease in a way. Also given how dedicated they both are to their professions, and how they carry that level of loyalty and drive, to him it just makes sense when it happens. But Iggy's still gonna get the talk cause everyone gets the talk x3
All in all, the main takeaway is while he knows Cindy can handle her own relationships, both the good and bad that come with it. What he is more hesitant about with the Chocobros is the consideration of their fealty to the crown. Working for the Lucian House in the past, knowing the path they're on and the sacrifices they might have to make, including the possibility of them dying in service to it. I think that's the kind of pain he doesn't wish Cindy to go through again. However, it does give him some comfort knowing there could be someone for Cindy when he himself has to leave her.

Seeing, "Zuko is canonically bad at firebending," takes on my dash, so...
Zuko is canonically not bad at firebending. He may not be the natural prodigy that Azula or Iroh are, but skills don't work on a basis of either "extreme prodigy" or "not good at all."
Zuko works hard throughout the series to grow and improve in his firebending, and he does.
He defeats Zhao, an adult firebending master, in an Agni Kai when he's 16 and ostensibly still stuck on the basics, because mastering the fundamentals is a huge part of getting "good" at any skill.
He learns lightning redirection in about a day and later successfully uses it against Ozai, who is meant to be an extremely powerful firebender.
He learns to understand and appreciate his fire on a fundamental level from the dragons, who were the original firebenders, and in so doing he becomes a firebending master just as much as Katara (who had a few days/weeks at most of formal training) or Toph (who declared herself an earthbending master after learning from badgermoles) are masters of their elements.
And then he took everything he had learned about fire and put it together to help Aang master firebending over the course of a few weeks.
None of that says, "canonically bad firebender." It says that Zuko didn't start out as a major natural prodigy like his sister, but he worked hard, never stopped learning and growing, and developed into a very strong and capable firebending master in his own right by the end of the show.

Mikey and Leo episode centered around Mikey wanting to push Leo and Draxum together since Leo’s the most reluctant to give Draxum any grace (for good reason!) But, thinking on the spot, Leo says he’s gotta go do something for Hueso and “just can’t hang out right now 😔” (yes, he says the emoji out loud.)
Mikey calls his bluff and now the three of them (Mikey having grabbed a weary Draxum along) go to Hueso’s to find that yes, he actually does have a job for him. Said job asks for Leo to go with Hueso to deliver multiple pizzas to this giant yokai quite a distance away, and Hueso figured it would probably go better with Leo’s help (emphasis on probably.)
Well, Mikey decides that this would be a great bonding opportunity for them and basically invites he and Draxum along. Unfortunately for Leo, Hueso doesn’t care enough to wave away more help, though he does side-eye the wanted criminal Baron Draxum coming with them. But who is he to judge? (This choice has consequences.)
The journey goes about as terribly as you’d expect, but at least the pizzas get delivered on time.

Just two siblings back from the dead, hanging out, totally not using this opportunity to torment one another for the rest of time! <3
Chara Week Day 4: Flowers
[Image Description: A digital drawing of Chara and Flowey from Undertale. They're on the Surface, with grass and trees and mountains stretching out behind them. Chara has golden flowers clustered around their left eye and speckled in their hair and on their hands. They're kneeling on the ground and smiling wide, holding Flowey's flower pot in one arm. Their other hand is outstretched in front of them and holding a camera. Flowey has a red bow wrapped around his stem and stickers in the shape of hearts, stars, and smiley faces decorating his pot. He looks annoyed as Chara leans their face in close to his to take a photo. /End ID]

rotating this crossover in my brain. again.
i am not gonna say that the kitty is unlucky Because it is a black cat But. it sure is in situations often.
lower are vague end-game Ghost Trick spoilers, go play the game! (or you know, watch a lets play)
its short and sweet and has a good resent remaster for pc.
my current thought is that sissel got lost on a road trip? maybe fell through a portal?
and is kinda stuck in the middle of nowhere usa. Shenanigans ensue. that happens when you have an increadibly powerful energy source stuck in a kinda defenceless body (not counting the time powers. which i am sure clockwork has nothing to say about and danny specifically doesnt have any negative experience with.)

Look, options are limited, beggars can’t be choosers (Patreon)
So I do have a white trenchcoat to offer him, but uh
It looks a little goofy and bulky lol
As above, there’s no shirt that I can put underneath it either! Too silly but not in the way I like my silliness! >:0
Of course, the alternative is
Lol. I mean, it’s definitely A Look, but it’s not what I would imagine finding near the front of his closet haha
The skelebros are even more limited tho, they’ve only got the one outfit to “choose” from
(Also yes, Papyrus does get glasses to match Gaster ♥)
I want to do some poking around with the Body Shop to see if I can make some custom outfits myself, or at least do some retextures! I’m sure I can make something workable!
