[simplyreveries]

I noticed that you opened the requests. I wanted to ask related to staff (separated) with mc/yuu who had daddy issues in their world and who sees them as a father figure

i love this sm,,,, TY<3

dire crowley

he is…. interesting- he does mean well but he just does a poor job executing that sometimes. he was never expecting to feel such a sense of protectiveness and being overly doting to you. it started when he couldn't help but feel pity for your own situation and watching you adjust to this world is tough.

you’ll find him randomly popping up out of nowhere in school and he’ll ask how you’re doing. a way as a check up on how you’re handling this world and school life so far, he’d tell you if you ask him. as soon as you ask him about home… "oh! is someone is calling me?" and just literally disappears.

In this case, I feel like his reluctance to figure out a way to bring you home stems from the fact that he really does care for you and doesn't want to lose that. so, let's just say, it'll take him awhile to figure that out. crowley seems to be trying to convince you how amazing, twisted wonderland really is! you could thrive and live so happily here! (minus the overblots… terrifying magic… creatures and more) he tells you how great it is for you already have a home, a whole dorm for yourself, as he’d say: “for i am so gracious!” that he’s done such a generous thing for you.

the first time you tried to give him a hug as thanks for something he was completely confused and didn't know how to react. he laughed and gave you the awkward pat on the back but once again, he means well i promise.

divus crewel

you have blatant favoritism from him… he seems a little less strict with you and if a student asks he’ll deny and tell them he doesn't do that or that he has to be since you’re not even from this world. he wouldn't expect you to know how to do certain things after all.

but still, ace and grim could groan because they got in trouble for forgetting homework or assignments but if you did he’d sigh and be like “bring it in tomorrow” and they are always so UPSET. it's also rare to get some compliments from him, but he seems to point out something well you did and give you a little “good improvement” and such. It's so obvious how he seems to care for you.

divus is literally the epitome of judgment when it comes to anyone having eyes for you or you tell him about even liking someone yourself… he is too protective and feels like any boy at this school is undeserving of you. he sees any attempt during class of one of them flirting or anything as them simply bothering you. If you mention someone like floyd he’d give you the most concerned look and be like “oh… him, how troublesome”. he doesn't really say what he thinks, unless you really ask for his opinion. he more so listens to you talk and he does genuinely try to give you some advice, even if it's a bit blunt.

mozus trein

now despite his strict and sternness, he can be a very calming person to be around and talk to. he will be pretty quiet, but he can become someone you just find if you need to talk as he listens and grades assignments, doing some work. if you really need to take your mind of certain worries and stresses, like finding a way back to your world- he'll offer you some tea and maybe even offer to play a game of chess with you (as he does with divus sometimes!)

trein is a father himself, he was very close to his daughters- so it actually is quite easy for him out of all of the staff members to develop a familial like relationship with. he enjoys having that feeling of looking after someone again and being someone, you could look up to in that sense. he would eventually notice that you do see him in such a way, he wouldn't say it, but it does warm his heart.

he'll let you play and pet lucius, it's just part of your special privileges. surprisingly, the cat likes you and always tries rubbing against you. since trein trusts you though, you will be given the duty to buy lucius cat toys from sams shop with money he gives you, he says its "in compensation" haha.

if you happen to be causing trouble with grim or some student in class, he'll scold you. but through it, he will remind and tell you he knows you're a good kid and doesn't want other bothersome students tarnishing your potential.

ashton vargas

oh poor you if you dread fitness or sports because he's always booming so loud, excited and pumped to get you involved more. even if you don't want to do something with others, he loves initiating one on one games with you and challenging you. he will not go easy though and laughs proudly whenever he wins. he'll still pat you on the back and tell you "nice job, kid!" or something of that sort. he's very supportive even if hes overly competitive at times.

sometimes you do have to hear his tangents on how he became so fit and strong... especially his "advice" on how great it is to consume raw eggs... this guy . he tries telling you it'd benefit you.

lowkey makes a big deal if you got hurt and needed to go to the infirmary. he always tries to keep a special eye on you in case and tries his absolute best to make sure you're alright. even after getting help, you needed from the nurse, still!!

sam

he tends to keep a watchful eye on you... he would much prefer and even offer, saying you'd be perfect to be working beside him at his shop. he wouldn't want you resorting or going somewhere like the mostro lounge really. but other than that, he is a very carefree guy who you could easily find yourself talking to about problems or issues you're having. his attitude and approach to things can be a good help.

also, if you're in general in need of something from his store, because you're extra special to him he'll sometimes just give you heavily discounted or even be like take it, ("it wasn't selling anyways"). hehe. he cares. especially when it comes to like snacks or food he'll have, he'll claim it's your "employee benefits!" if you're working there.

sam is pretty much in the loop with anything interesting happening at school or things he may have overheard from students. you can easily get gossip out of him, just saying. but sometimes that just turns him into trying to discreetly warn you about certain students at nrc.

Staff with a scrawny and bitey Child!Yuu

Warning(s): cussing

A/N: thought I might as well get the rest of the staff introductions out of the way cause of some asks.

[Bitey child!Yuu Masterlist]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Divus Crewel

You first officially met Professor Crewel when you walked into your first class with Grim

he was about to start his lesson when he just saw a small child and some type of fire cat thing sitting at one of the desks

just to give you a lil picture, you were prob sitting down on the seat with only your head making it over the desk, same situation with Grim.

so he paused his lesson and brought you two out to the hall to ask what in the ever loving fuck you were here and not with either your parents or the authorities, and why Grim is allowed here

Grim tries to explain, but Crewel just takes you to Crowley to clear things up.

Let's just say Crewel is none too pleased that the headmaster is having a child stay on campus until he can find a way to get them back

but he begrudgingly excepts it.

He allows you to sit in on his lessons but when its time to make the potions he has you sit behind his desk, where you'll usually take a nap

when he first found out about your biting habit it was when a random student walked into his class to talk to a friend or smth, and out of nowhere you just lunged at the poor kid

he quickly pried you off the kid's leg and scolded you.

He hates this habit

but a small part of him finds it funny, especially when the person you bite is being an asshole

is one of the ppl who tries to stop this habit you have.

He's almost like a strict uncle or smth like that

random but, he always fixes your clothes and hair when there messy

he'll always re-tie your bow around your wrist when Grims not around

you will sometimes come to him at random times to help with an untied shoe, he'll sigh, pick you and sit you on his desk then tie em for ya.

Overall, he almost treats you like an untrained puppy. He has a feeling that the reason for your habit isn't as random as most ppl say, but he feels its not his place to ask.

also, you may sometimes take naps on his jacket when he takes it off.

Mozus Train

Train has conflicted feelings about you.

First time you met him you didn't bite him, but you did stare at him for a long while

he was so confused by you for a minute, but eventually realized you were staring at Lucius in his arms

so he kneeled down to your level and let you pet the cat.

Most of the stray cats you ran into weren't very nice, most would bite or scratch you

so your not very fond of them, at least not as fond of the as you were dogs

but this cat seemed especially friendly since it was all cuddled up in this old guys arms

after that you'll usually waltz into his class at random times to hang out with Lucius.

He found out about the biting from overhearing a couple students complaining about getting bit

at first he thought they were talking about some animal but then he heard your name

he heavily scolds you the next time he sees you, which you didn't even listen to, just stared at him.

Train isn't pleased by this obv and tries his best to get you to stop, spoiler alert,

doesn't work.

You remind him slightly of when one of his daughters was little, so he grew a small soft spot for you

and when he realized how big the uniform was on you and that you didn't have anything else, he was happy to give you some of their old clothes, he was meaning to get rid of them anyway.

Overall, he and Lucius enjoy your presence. He finds it almost adorable how invested you are in his lectures and like having you there. He might be one of the ones who hates your biting the most.

Also very concerned about who taught you this, or why your guardian allowed it to continue.

Ashton Vargas

This mf LOVES you!

Your so strong for a child your age and size.

Anyways,

yeah you bit him

but he gave no reaction

I'm not sure he even felt it to be honest.

You decided to stay in his calf for some reason and he didn't even notice until someone pointed it out

to which he laughed and pulled you off.

Vargas is one of the few that encourages your biting, even giving you tips on how to strengthen your jaw to have a better bite force

he also finds it pretty funny, but he still pulls you off the person when he sees you biting someone

every time he laughs around Train or Crewel they hit the back of his head.

During gym class he does child-friendly exercises with you when he doesn't need to watch the other students,

Overall, thinks your a cool kid and is impressed by you. He doesn't rly care about why you do it tho, just thinks your a weird kid.

Sam

He thinks your quite interesting.

The first time he met you was when Grim dragged you with him to get tuna

he heard of you from the students when they were shopping around

so he also heard of the bites

was a lil cautious of you the first time he met ya, not wanting to get bit, but after like a half an hour of you and Grim looking for the tuna and not being able finding it it was on a top shelf

he relaxed and helped you two.

From then on you would come in to get things and he'd have you help around a lil bit to pay for it

minus the occasional biting, you were a good little helper

he even gave you a small pin that said

'Little Helper'

you loved it so much, that you wore it the whole day on the days you were going to help Sam

and would show it off to your friends

which he heavily much encourages a lot since that time you told Cheka about Sam's Shop, and his dad made a very big purchase.

Overall, he likes having you around, thinks your quite adorable and funny. He's neutral about the biting, as long as you don't bite him or too many customers then he doesn't care all that much.

Slightly curious about who taught you to do it and why they did, but doesn't think its important.

School-side Staycation - Staff Shenanigans

@ashipiko has a super fun 1k follower event going on that reminded me of a conversation I had with a friend a While ago!! I decided to turn it into a drabble, so I hope you guys enjoy some NRC Staff Shenanigans!! (Including my staff/greenhouse caretaker oc, Aspen Zoi - I apologize in advance for the stim word "like" OTL if you don't check out his profile, just know he speaks like your stereotypical surfer/hippie/stoner)

Also apologies OTL I have to write on my phone due to Technical Difficulties, RIP my formatting. Um just as a heads up, there is some food talk in regards to calories and dieting. It's not talked about a lot, but it is in there.

Also also this is my first time writing all the staff together so I hope it's at least entertaining!

---------------------------

"Turkey burgers, really Divus, I'd have thought better of you." Mozus scoffed lightheartedly over the younger man's shoulder, watching the black latex clad hands work in a mix of shredded vegetables into the meat.

Crewel raised a questioning brow to his senior, using his shoulder to push away hair from his face for the upteenth time that day. Even with his dark shades on, both the unamusement and the spark of competitiveness was felt to be fanned.

"Well, Mozus, if you cared to ever look past those dusty old history books of yours and indulge in the dietary world, you would know that ground turkey-"

"Sucks. It sucks." Vargas interrupted, shaking his head in disappointment. He was wearing near neon orange shorts and a white tank top, though clearly splattered with some stains from his preparation, shades sat nicely atop his lofty locks. His food was currently concealed in the two heaping platters he had under aluminum foil as he set them down on the table next to the barbeque. "It's got less protein, less iron, less zinc, and more sodium than ground beef. It has a little more 'healthy' fat," the air quotes were heavily emphasized by the gym teacher, "but for Sevens sake Divus, it's supposed to be a vacation sort of thing. Let the kids loose for a little while."

An audible "hmph" left the alchemy professor, moreso at Trein's smug grin than Ashton as he refocused on his work. His UV protectant, black, long sleeve shirt was rolled up to his elbows, a simple red short sleeve button up layered on top. "Not everyone can afford to give up their calorie intake over a vacation."

"Then you may as well have just made black bean patties and volunteered yourself to make the vegan option."

Trein sighed and shook his head at Ashton's apparent naivety as he opened his grill, throwing a few patties on. Perhaps his air of superiority would have been less humorous if not for the cargo shorts, white shirt, the blue, green, pink and yellow tropical overshirt, the matching, tropical bucket hat, and the apron that read "Grillmaster", but Trein continued anyways.

"He's using the leftovers of his dogs food that he thawed and forgot to use."

An awkward silence filled the air between the three of them, save for the soft sizzling of Treins burgers and the distant sounds of their beloved students having fun. Ashton spoke up in near disbelief.

"....Divus is that-"

The older of the two suppressed a scowl, trying to play it off best he could as he waved off his former underclassmans concern.

"Ground turkey is ground turkey, how I was going to use it is irrelevant! Really now Mozus was that necessary?!"

Vargas exchanged glances with Trein, before grinning a little more, willing to 'poke the bear'.

"I know you call them your pups but..."

Crewel felt his eye twitch slightly. Not much got to him, but the implication that 1. His dogs weren't incredibly dear to him, and 2. That his students weren't held to the same regard as his dogs in terms of how he cared for them, was not something he felt he could articulate well enough to get it through Ashton's thick, thick skull.

" It's still perfectly fine food, it's ought to be better than whatever Dire has!"

In an attempt to get the attention off of him for once, Crewel directed his, and his colleagues attention to the approaching headmage, ignoring the soft snickers behind him from Ashton for the sake of his sanity.

The headmage wore a huge grin under the stupid mask of his, dressed in his normal vacation attire. His arms were outstretched, as if anyone there would hug him as a greeting - none of them would, but especially not now that one was grilling, the other had his hands plunged into raw meat, and the third...well Vargas wasn't doing anything that would impede him from doing so, but he pretended to look busy as he fidgeted with the aluminum foil from one of his platters, careful to not lift it up.

Trein glanced at the headmage as he joined them under the white tents, his clawed gloves drawing most of his attention as Dire lowered his arms to his sides.

"Dire. What are you bringing to cook?"

The headmage looked at him blankly before smiling, chuckling a little awkwardly as he took his hat off and held it to his chest. As if he didn't already look pathetic, now he looked like he was going to apologize, and the staff in front of him already looked unamused.

"Ehe, well you see, I was generous enough to allow our students host this event-"

Knowing glances were exchanged between the three as Crowley continued.

"So neeever did I ever think my kindness would be taken advantage of like so! After all the budgeting and set up and organizing and ordering and nights laying awake and wondering how to make today the best success it could be, I didn't think I would be expected to cook too!"

The masked man rested the back of his hand against his head dramatically, trying and failing to gain the sympathy of the staff who all very well knew he had signed off on the event, and being a part of the catering. Hell, he had admitted it himself- he hadn't done any of that. That was all part of hosting, something that had very much not been on his shoulders, like many other responsibilities this year.

Vargas moved to the table across from Crewel, starting to make a protein-packed sauce to go with his still-mystery food, shooting Crowley a bit of a shit-eating grin.

"Well I guess you better go buy hotdogs or something from Sam's and be prepared to lose."

An indignant squawk left Dire, his dramatic display clearly not working in his favour, and he couldn't fathom why.

"Lose??"

"Hot stuff comin' through! And it ain't just me-"

Sam wheeled a tri-level service cart over the grass with ease, thanks to magic, each level with absolutely delicious smelling, but hidden food. Aspen followed close behind, Willow, his Pekin duck toddling after him.

Dire moved out of the way so as to let the trio through, Sam moving next to Vargas and starting to load tray after tray onto the serving table, a determined and slightly crazed expression on his face.

"Ain't nobody beatin' Mama's mac'n cheese recipe. Not even your fancy ass brisket Ashton, don't pretend like that ain't whatchyer tryna hide under there, I know you too damn well fo' you to try an' hide it."

Vargas and Same broke into easy conversation as Aspen hung back with Crowley, who was still visibly confused. He looked down at his hands, as if they held the answer to his questions.

"Lose?? Beating his mother's recipe??? What have I missed????"

Aspen's single, amused "haaah" was rather annoying to the headmage. Despite the sharp turn of his head and the glare he directed at Aspen, he just gave him his same old dopey grin.

"Aww man, you really didn't, like, read anything you signed, did ya? The teacher who like... looses the cook off gets pelted with water balloons by like...the whooole student body. It would really suck if one of us forgot to bring something. It'd be like...immediate disqualification or whatever."

The blond tilted his head a bit and giggled as he watched a few of the students play volleyball not far from them, oblivious to the rising panic on the headmage's face.

"But you haven't brought anything?! So what if two faculty members didn't bring anything?! The penalty is halved, right?!"

Aspen let out a small laugh.

"Hah. As if. Babygirl and I made seven layer salad, which is like, on Sam's cart, and a buncha desserts last night, isn't that right?" He bent down to pick up Willow, kissing her head as he cradled her. "I mean sure, baking isn't, like, COOKING but I don't think anybody is gonna complain about brownies 'nd, like, homemade ice cream, y'know? I just gotta wait to bring it out cuz..like....the ice cream...duh."

He waited a beat, the rising panic from the man beside him finally catching on. He was about to ask, but Crowley was on his knees next to Sam in a split second, holding his hand and groveling.

"PLEASE- no, actually, as your boss, I DEMAND you open your shop and sell me the best cuts of meat- no, actually, I want as many tube's of ground beef, ah, no, Trein is already- ground PORK-"

Sam shook his hand away from Crowley in mild disgust.

"Oh hell no, might I remind ya, I'm on vacation, as are the rest of us and the little imps. If you want to serve hot dogs, you'll have to go into town and move fast. Otherwise you're gonna have to embrace your fate of death by a thousand waterballoons." Sam swapped the position of one of his trays with Vargas' platter, so as to get his jerk chicken onto the grill after changing his glove out for an untouched one.

"With all due respect, your poor plannin' does NOT constitute an emergency on my part, Mr. Crowley, Sir."

Dire let out an undignified noise at Sam's facetiousness and lack of cooperation.

Trein looked down at the rather defeated looking headmage and sighed at the mess of a man, shaking his head again in disappointment.

"For Sevens sake, pull yourself together Dire. You could go ask the ghosts in the Cafeteria if they've got anything they'll lend you to cook."

Crowley looked like a kicked puppy at Trein for a moment before standing back up, beaming and near launching himself at him for a hug, which Trein avoided as if this was something that happened often. Despite not getting what he wanted, Crowley clearly had new vigor.

"Ah! You're right. Of course, if the ghosts are there I could- hm! Nevermind, nevermind, yes thank you my dear friend, I knew you wouldn't let me suffer! Unlike SOME people." He shot a fake dirty look at the rest of his beloved faculty, only to be met with snickers and mildly amused expressions. Yes, even with all their jests and disagreements, these were the people he felt most comfortable around. His expression softened for a half second before he clapped twice and smiled widely again.

"I'll be back with something delicious! I swear to defeat you all!" His voice lilted playfully, before he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

A shared sigh came from Trein and Crewel, amusing their younger colleagues with the similarity.

Crewel wiped at his head with his shoulder again, grinning knowingly at Trein.

"Mozus."

"Divus." Trein kept his focus trained on his burgers, though his voice had an air of amusement to it, and it was clear the corner of his mouth was kicked up in a small smile.

"Were you really trying to be of assistance?"

Crewel finished rolling the last of his turkey blend into disks, turning his full attention to his conniving collegue.

Trein hummed a bit in response.

"Yes. Not to him, to us, but his absence makes it much easier to concentrate."

Crewel shed his latex gloves, put some hand sanitizer on and walked over to 'supervise' Trein's grill, before grabbing a patty that was cooked and looking over it in mild disgust.

"Concentrate on what, perfecting a burn on your patties, oh 'grillmaster'" he mocked, breaking a piece off and eating it, hardly hiding his distaste.

"Ah, I see, you're trying to make up for your lack of seasoning using charcoal, well old man I can guarantee the turkey burgers you were so quick to dismiss will certainly be better than that piece of semi-edible Sahara."

Trein sighed, annoyed, plucking the rest of the patty from Crewel's fingers and throwing it out.

"I always burn my first one. It guarantees I won't burn the rest of them. If you used those astute powers of observation you're so proud of, you'd have seen the rest of the burgers are cooked beautifully."

He lifted the foil just enough to show Crewel the admittedly, mouth-wateringly delicious looking patties underneath, though Divus refused to show any indication that he was impressed.

"They're still bland. The students don't have a grandpa stomach like you."

Trein rolled his eyes internally, huffing, but even Sam and Aspen snickered at the comment.

"It will be fine once I make my sauce to go with them. My daughters love my cooking, I'm sure our students will as well. You have your dogs as reference for your tastes. I would be more worried if I was in your shoes."

Crewel moved towards Sam, who made room for him, moving his chicken to the top rack so Divus could use the main part of the grill to start cooking.

"You say that as if I don't cook for myself either. Really Mozus, I'm hurt by how lowly you think of me. Besides, I understand cooking as not only an art, but from the very chemical bases of it. I have every confidence that if no one else, I will be getting votes from Pomefiorians."

Aspen snorted from behind him, waving his hand dismissively.

"Nahh, Poms are gonna go for Sam's mac or, like, his chicken. They're like, tired of eating that Vil guys super bland food. Ya might, like, get Vil himself? Maybe? But I feel like he's prolly just gonna beeline it to my salad cuz of that new green diet thing one a his freshies said he's on. I only know cuz like, they were getting veggies from the greenhouse. If anything, I think ya might pull a few votes from Savanaclaw, but like, to be honest, even as a vegetarian, Ashton's brisket looks really good and prolly will come in after Sam's food."

Crewel let out a soft sigh, but Vargas was beaming, as Sam and Aspen exchanged finger guns and a wink. Trein squinted slightly at his watch.

"Lunch is meant to be in about 45 minutes. Aspen, Vargas, seeing as the two of you have nothing better to do, I suggest you start cutting up veggies for the burgers and fruit for after. Just make sure to use some hand sanitizer first."

The two exchanged a glance, both mouthing a mocking, lighthearted 'yes dad' behind Trein's back, making Sam snicker a bit.

"Dontchya worry Mozus, they got it covered."

-----------------

And that's where my brain stopped RIP

In case you're wondering, Crowley showed up like 3 hours late and got ambushed. It's okay though his "food" would have put him in last place anyways.

I'm not used to typing things like this out on my phone, and I'm even less used to reading them so this is not proofread or betaread or like. I'm not. Rereading it so here's to hoping it flows okay and it's as engaging as I think it is lol.

ANYWAYS thank you for such a fun event Ashi!!

Hug Me! (.づσ▿σ)づ.

Asking TWST characters to hug you! Staff Edition, as requested by a few people. 

(These were written to be platonic bc that was just in the headspace I’ve been in lol. also hiiiiiii im back)

Heartslabyul | Savanaclaw | Octavinelle | Scarabia | Pomefiore | Ignihyde | Diasomnia | Staff

Crowley is kind and generous, so he will so kindly and generously give you a hug! All of those feathers though…. You might end up with some in your mouth. He definitely smells odd. Like, not bad, but definitely odd. Also he’s definitely saying some weird shit. You know how he is… Final rating 5/10. It’s not bad, but like— not good either.

You’re lucky Crewel likes you, otherwise he would definitely say no. His hug is very nice, he’ll either pat you on the head or back all dad-like. While hugging him you notice how soft his coat is. You ask him what it’s made of, but he just laughs and sends you on your way... definitely not suspicious. Final rating 8/10. Sir please, what kind of fur is that.

Trein is a father, so he is no stranger to hugs. But his children are all adults now, so he’s a bit out of practice. It’s an oddly formal hug. Stands completely straight and gives you exactly two (2) pats on the back. At least he wears really fancy cologne so he smells nice, and not like an old person at all. Also please refrain from hugging him if you’re allergic to cats. Lucius sheds. Like, a lot. Final rating 6/10. Only a little awkward.

Hugging Vargas might as well be a death sentence. Just look at him. Also wears cologne but not the fancy good smelling kind. He smells like Axe body spray and hair gel. If that’s not enough to take you out, the fact that it feels like he’s actively trying to break your spine definitely will. Final rating 4/10. Dude Chill.

Sam is very weird, very cryptic, and a master salesman. Knows what you want from him before you even walk through the door. Don’t worry about it, his “friends on the other side” told him you’d be here today. Great news, there’s a special promotion going on, RIGHT NOW! With every purchase, you get one free hug from Sam himself! What a deal! The hug itself is nice. He might be weird but he’s a cool guy. Definitely messes up your hair on purpose. Final rating 6/10. The sales pitch lost him some points. Can you be normal for like 3 minutes please

[hand-of-devotion]

I've come around on Callowmoore and in doing so realized my main problem with them originally was part of the fandoms insistence on chalking them up to being "a sexy provocative woman being sexy next to a sexy gruff man". Where as I can only enjoy them through the lens of their autistic arospec t4t weirdness.

[utilitycaster]

it is tbh odd to me that a lot of people really love Ashton and wish the story focused more heavily on them, but also ship Imogen and Laudna. I don't think it's contradictory to enjoy both Ashton and that ship, but I'd argue that the thing getting in the way of Ashton's backstory or impinging is, most frequently, Imogen's priorities, particularly regarding her and Laudna's relationship.

trans xiao hua headcanon just hits different because it elevates the gender fuckery he already has going on. what bigger power move could there be than transitioning and then becoming a master of disguising yourself as people of any gender, having a side interest in specializing playing female roles in chinese opera, and continuing to use the childhood nickname you got because everyone thought you were too pretty. xie yuchen is literally winning the gender game guys appreciate his efforts

[romeoandjulietyouwish]

ugh I’m imagining Ashton carrying her all the way up to the castle, the people whispering in shock because they know Vesper and someone racing to get Vex and Percy and Ashton has to lay Vesper down in front of Lord de Rolo, of their father and Ashton just stands there, head bowed, looking small for the first time the Hells have ever seen him

“I’m sorry, Lord de Rolo…” they whisper.

Percy’s lip tightens as he strokes Vesper’s hair, tears in his eyes because that’s his baby girl lying dead on the table before him

And then Orym tells Percy that many of them fell during the fight and they just couldn’t get Vesper back and Percy pulls Ashton so close

He can keep a stiff upper lip but not when his children are involved and he is the first to demand that Pike be brought and Vex and call Cassandra…

But Percy keeps Ashton close to him as he converses with the Hells like he can’t lose another child and he will absolutely rip apart next person who even looks at his children the wrong way

“Vex dear, I’ve adopted six new children.”

Oh my god that's actually making me emotional

Because Ashton is so certain that Percy is going to be so angry because their relationship has always been contentious. And now they've let his oldest daughter die on their watch, they'd be lucky to still call the de Rolos a family after this, there's no way Percy would ever speak to them again.

But of course there's no way that would happen. Percy watched his own sisters and brothers die, he knows what Ashton is going through better than anyone. And unlike Percy, Ashton is so unsteady in this family already that there's no real thought for Percy to pull Ashton, his oldest child, into a hug and not let go until Vesper is breathing again.

And the rest of the Hells are just so shocked because they've never seen Ashton like this before. He normally doesn't like touch, certainly not for this long

Ashton's Backstory - Monster AU

Monster: Minotaur Word Count: ~ 0.61 K Relationships Mentioned: Crowley as a (godawful) father figure, young(er) Trein TW: Vargas was abandoned, Crowley as an awful father figure -------------------------------

Mozus stared dumbfoundedly at the chubbiest baby minotaur he had ever seen. He had found it out in the courtyard by the well, contentedly stuffing its mouth with tiny fistfuls of grass, looking around bright eyed.

He was only more confused when the tiny tot started to giggle and toddle after Crowley as he breezed past him to tend to one of the apple trees. It was evident the little beast couldn't keep up, and also that the headmage was far too scatterbrained to pick up on the fact he was being followed. Despite knowing better, Trein sighed to himself and followed after the two of them. "Crowley." The man whirled around to face him, grinning, until it faltered and he looked down. then squawked at the baby. "YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW ME!"

Trein sighed as the toddler inevitably burst into tears. It was only at that point he felt comfortable enough to pick the little monster up. He grunted as he did so, the babe being heavier than he had anticipated originally, but managed to stand up with it and allowed it to snuggle into him as he rubbed its back. "Where was he meant to go Dire? How did you even get yourself into this mess?" Crowley huffed, puffing his feathers up disdainfully and gestured for Trein to follow him as he continued on his way. "I didn't do anything, now get rid of it, it's parents must b-" "Minotaurs abandon their runts. You should know that. And assuming you found this one alone, you should have known it was going to follow the first thing that gave it attention. Though I've never taken you as the caring type." Crowley turned and blinked blankly. "I'm not. I was after the bell on his neck. It glinted and I figured I could take it, but since he is but a child, I allowed him to keep it. Aren't I generous?" He grinned widely. "Now you're holding the snotty thing, you can take care of it." He turned on his heel, waving goodbye to an incredulous Trein. "It can't come to classes though, so if you need someone to babysit it it's best you arrange for that immediately." The minotaur sat enough to watch Crowley walk away, before soft sobs left it and it struggled in Trein's grip, desperate to follow the feathered man. Trein couldn't keep his hold on him, gently letting him go and catching a glimpse of the aforementioned bell, watching him run after Crowley. He grabbed a fistful of the mans feathers, causing Crowley to squawk in surprise and look down at the minotaur now chewing on his feathers, eyes filled with tears. ".....go on. Leave me be." Crowley tapped at the little monster lightly with his shoe. Trein came up beside him and chuckled softly, patting his shoulder. "It seems hungry. I'm sure you can figure out what to do with him. He clearly doesn't want me." Trein gave Crowley a small satisfied smile and went on his way, ignoring the squawks and complaints from behind him. ----------------------------------- The baby merely giggled as Crowley tried to pull away from it, it's tiny hands gripping onto his feathers too tightly to merely shake him off. It took him a few moments, but he finally looked down at the little beast and noticed how brightly his eyes shined up at him. Crowley finally sighed. "Fine. You can follow me. I suppose having someone around that has no clue what they're doing will make me feel very intelligent. Not that you get it. You're a child. Very well. Just stop pulling on my feathers!" --------------------------------------------------

poppy

give me a character and i’ll give you 10+ headcannons: poppy calvery.

o sonho inicial das mães calvery e tremblay eram que, na verdade, a poppy ficasse muito amiga da hanna e formassem uma amizade assim como elas tinham. mas... porém, contudo, desde que as crianças se conheceram nas férias de verão - antes da família calvery se mudar oficialmente de sacramento pra são francisco -, desde o início ficou claro que a conexão real existia entre a poppy e o ashton. desde seus primeiros dias juntos, ainda criancinhas, sempre andaram pra lá e pra cá juntos, e era com ele que a poppy queria fazer tudo.

por vários anos, a poppy escreveu contos no caderno dela (e algumas fanfics com teor duvidoso sobre casais que ela gostava em séries e livros), e a única pessoa de confiança que ela deixava ler tudo era o ashton. só inscreveu o seu primeiro conto em concurso da escola provavelmente por incentivo dele, então, ele tem muuuita influência em ela ter tomado coragem pra levar a escrita como carreira.

atualmente, tem três livros lançados - you deserve each other, hook line & sinker e beach read. embora não sejam nenhum best-seller, ela se tornou bem popular entre o nicho dos fãs de livros de comédia romântica, e o último ganhou bastante destaque no tiktok desde o seu lançamento.

em todos os livros, um hábito de poppy está presente: ela sempre coloca alguma piada interna ou cenário que só o ashton vai entender a origem, porque gosta da ideia de terem essas conexões e referências um com o outro que somente os dois poderiam compreender e entender a verdadeira graça.

por mais que seja extremamente romântica e acredite no amor verdadeiro, além de ganhar a vida escrevendo sobre isso, a vida amorosa de poppy é um desastre. somente teve dois relacionamentos que duraram mais que alguns meses. um foi durante o ensino médio, com o namorado de dois anos e meio - terminaram pela universidade e, naquela altura, ela estava dando graças a deus -, e o outro mais recentemente. ficou com seu último namorado sério durante quase dois anos, porém, acabaram a relação, estando há um ano e meio separados. não tem a menor pretensão de manter um relacionamento com ele de novo e, usualmente, acaba apenas usando o tinder ou encontros marcados por amigos em comum pra sair com outros caras.

poppy é o tipo de pessoa que faz uma playlist para absolutamente toda situação possível em sua vida. é um hábito que criou durante a escrita de seu primeiro livro, quando descobriu que criar playlists de músicas sobre os personagens, cenários e o casal em si ajudaria muito, assim como para diversas emoções possíveis. nunca consegue se concentrar para escrever em seu computador sem que esteja usando fones de ouvido. a maior parte das músicas que escuta são pop, mas ela também gosta muito de indie.

sua relação com a família anda um pouco estremecida desde a descoberta de que sua mãe estava traindo o marido e, por alguma razão, ainda pediu que guardasse o seu segredo por não querer destruir a relação de tantos anos. embora poppy tenha concordado com o tempo, por imaginar que doeria mais em seu pai saber, e com a promessa de sua mãe de que seria a última vez, se sente constantemente culpada de não ter falado nada. nunca conversou com ninguém sobre tudo isso, e não fala mais com sua mãe da mesma forma.

adotou recentemente um cachorrinho de cor caramelo, que uma amiga resgatou e não tinha como cuidar em sua casa por questões de espaço e ter outros cães. ele é praticamente um filho pra poppy, que o nomeou de darcy em homenagem ao tão conhecido personagem de orgulho e preconceito, o seu livro favorito da escritora jane austen. como darcy é muito enérgico, frequentemente sai pra caminhar com ele no parque perto de seu edifício ou na praia.

gosta muito de ir em cinemas drive-in e, provavelmente, todos os seus amigos já foram arrastados ao menos uma vez para acompanhá-la, embora não veja algum problema em ir sozinha. as suas maratonas favoritas são as de filmes de romance, seu gênero favorito de cinema. seu filme favorito, por sinal, é when harry met sally, embora também ame la la land e sleeping with other people.

quando a questionam sobre o homem de seus sonhos, geralmente poppy dá uma descrição que qualquer um que os conhecesse poderia encaixar em ashton - e, na maioria das vezes, ela nem sequer se dá conta disso. muitas vezes, entretanto, ela já admitiu para as amigas mais próximas que queria alguém como o melhor amigo e que a tratasse da maneira que ele faz, embora nunca tenha levado a sério nem a ideia de algum dia ficarem juntos. parece muito fora da realidade, de tanto que ela é acostumada com a amizade - e, caso ele fosse querer algo, teria falado há muito tempo.

The combination Zerxus-Essek-Ashton-Luxon-Champions theory/hc/au thing that lives in the back of my mind is so funny when you put it on paper. The key to being a champion of an unfeeling uncaring unknowing older than gods entity is having The Audacity™️
