Lightbulb is a really obscure podcaster and Paintbrush is a listener that tunes in every time they draw because she's such an inspiration to them. She has five monthly listeners and three of them are Paintbrush

AU where Zuko and Iroh join up with the gang in Book 2 while they're fugitives in the Earth Kingdom. Except when they get to Ba Sing Se, Azula doesn't realise this and still offers to take Zuko make to the Fire Palace

Zuko says yes and spends all of Book 3 acting as a spy in the Fire Palace

Some sketches from waiting for my class to start

I wanted to sketch out the damage done to Ghost’s wings that I talked about in a previous ask, as well as show off some of Ghost’s scars (and that dump truck lmao)

Not my final design for any of these just testing the waters

Also more of “Ghost fell first” stuff

a bad thought

Vaggie's wings are and were distinctive for an Exorcist, yeah? She was the only one with that single wing stripe, and she still has it now

if Carmilla could put the pieces together even without that then someone like Velvette shouldn't have any problem figuring out the Vaggie = Exorcist thing post hotel battle

how hard would it be for Vox to get a screenshot from the battle where Vaggie's new wings were out, showing of that one stripe? How hard for Velvette and him to comb though the videos and social media posts of past Exterminations and search out any glimpse of an Exorcist with that specific wing pattern? How much would Val push for that or ANYTHING that could mess with the hotel that's taking over Angel Dust's time and making him act up?

Vox could probably run a "Hotel Manager's Past Exorcist Kills Highlights!" tv special, couldn't he

he could air who knows how many of Vaggie's murders on live tv for all of hell to see. for her to see.

Velvette wouldn't have any trouble pulling together posts from Vaggie's victims and putting names on them. Friends and family would find out exactly who the killer was, and where she is, and they'd now also know, thanks to the hotel battle, that one purchase from Carmine will let them take a crack at some revenge against her

But mainly I'm thinking of the moment the hotel crew realizes what's happening

they were having shitty tv group watch night maybe, all still jittery from almost dying and spending time together instead of being alone in their rooms. there's laughter over the terrible shows on in hell and then it cuts out- just like in the first ep- and suddenly they're watching Exorcist Vaggie impaling people

Charlie's the first one to look away and check on Vaggie. When Vaggie won't answer her she yells for someone to change the channel, and when that doesn't work, to turn the tv OFF. There's a scramble. Lots of trying not to stare at the tv. No one can find the remote.

Charlie's in front of Vaggie hugging her trying to get between her and the montage of people screaming and dying but Vaggie won't budge and just keeps watching-

Husk throws a bottle at the tv at the same moment Angel Dust launches a high heeled boot at it. It shatters and sparks and in the silence afterwards Cherry Bomb notes that all of hell's social media is showing the same stuff. It's everywhere

Suddenly the only broadcast in hell that's not showcasing as many of Vaggie's sins as possible is Alastor's creepy radio show.

wouldn't that be ironic?

anyway, seems like a good angle to try sabotaging the hotel with

[klonoafan5]

well i just watched a playthrough of mouthwashing, so to repair the Emotional Damage the story has given me mercilessly, i came up with some au ideas

a au where the events of the game were a bad dream that curly had after sleeping on the job (or so he thinks until he discovers that he somehow went back in time before the crash to fix things)

a au where jimmy was the one who got hurt in the crash instead of curly and go through a redemption through karmic retribution arc

a au where the game was just that - a game/simulation that the crew were participants of

i'm pretty sure these ideas already exist but i just wanted to throw my hat in the ring

oh and one more-

a au where jimmy goes to silent hill for his crimes

[sp0o0kylights]

AU wherein Steve is a completely random teacher who ends up working remotely during the pandemic.

He's told stories about his husband to his classes for years, so much so that Mr. Harrington's wacky husband is school lore (as is Steve's love for Corroded Coffin, due to the signed poster he had above his desk he insists was given to him as a joke) but no one connected that his spouse is international hall of famer metal band front man, Eddie Munson until he literally pops up behind Steve while he's teaching.

As time goes on the kids get an insight to the fact that a) all the stories are true, Eddie is a hilarious, chaotic mess, and b) the most random selection of people just casually walk into Steve's house like they own it.

This ranges rom famed scientist and influencer Dustin Henderson, to the lady who owns Hawkins only skateboard shop, Mad Max's.

AU to add to the list of AUs I'll never write: All of the Robins are de-aged to the age they were when they became Robin. Their memories are also reset to that point, and somehow they're in their Robin suits.

So you have a 16 year old Steph, desperately trying to wrangle 4 feral children who look nearly identical and won't tell her their names because "you do know what a secret identity is, don't you Stephanie?"

Time traveler Ivan but he stages an escape with Sua, Mizi and Till because he does not want them to die.

Sua and Till kinda hates him for how he handled it because it made Mizi cry when he forcibly opened her eyes to reality.

Except during the escape something went wrong and Ivan sacrifices himself to buy them time.

(He got injured so badly that he gets amnesia. Unsha curses Anakt Garden because Ivan never acted so rebellious in his care. They blame Ivan's rebellious act to Till because of course they would blame Till and not perfect pet Ivan. Also because Ivan forgot about everyone again, he's docile and obedient. Unsha implants a tracker in his skin and withdraws Ivan from performing on stage because his wife was distraught about almost losing her cute little Ivan. He gets scheduled playdates with Luka instead )

I know time loop stories are often about characters going on an emotional journey and/or learning a lesson but if I was stuck in a time loop I would very quickly stop caring about consequences

Who cares if I spend all my money if the purchase wouldn't have even happened the next day? Who cares if I finally flip someone at work off? If I got angry and wanted to throw my phone at the wall, I could without needing to buy a new one.

Coming out of a time loop must be incredibly difficult. You'd have to relearn small petty consequences the way an astronaut relearns gravity after returning to earth. You have to relearn how to live like the next day actually matters.

Vbs au where they did tell An about Nagi in time for her to say goodbye, which led to a broken An for years who gave up on music.

Akito, who was already her "rival", became instantly fed up with it bc why the fuck are you not even trying so anytime they see each other is a 50/50 chance for them to start yelling at each other.

Anyways, Kohane does end up getting on the cafe, at the same day Toya and Akito were there (not fighting with An for once) and Akito sees that An had the first happy reaction he saw out of her since that happened with Kohane so he and Toya end up pulling her to sing together, which led to An yelling at him later in front of Kohane because she KNOWS what he is trying to do and it WONT WORK (it did, she was both gay panicking and impressed)

So Kohane, after Toya explained what he knew because Akito would not explain a thing, decided to start singing because hey pretty lady who gave her a free milkshake for singing, sue her.

So the team order would probably be

Kohane (she led to the change in An) - Akito - Toya - An

It eventually works and with a flashback of Nagi telling her to not give up on music, An starts singing. And at that point, Akito and Toya were helping Kohane so much they just, naturally became a proper group, instead of being rivals.

And now An feels she has a lot to catch up on, at least 2 years without singing does smth to her voice, not in a good way though. An initially wants to surpass only Nagi, then later joins the rest in wanting to surpass rad weeknd.

Akito is proud but hides it (everyone knows it but An).

^meant as anhane/akitoya and found family for everyone but polyvbs is also accepted as a reading bc i also like it

I really like the idea that Ichigo has always done some strange stuff, even before any of them had any idea about soul society.

Chad, Orihime, and Uryu (as well as Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizuiro) very much take the approach of don't say a fucking thing, leave him alone to anyone who looks like they may say something about it.

Ichigo makes a strange noise? They've figured out which noises are good ones and which ones are bad ones.

He's a little colder, distant, and sometimes a little cruel? Give him a little bit and he'll be fine again.

He gets a little too bright eyed during fights? Licks blood off his lips and sometimes off a wound? His nails look a little sharp and his teeth a little meaner? All good. He'll beat the shit out of someone, pace around a bit and be fine again.

Eats an unbelievable amount of food and still stays on the lean side of skinny? It's a metabolism thing.

Runs a little colder? He's great to sit by in the hot summer!

Gets a little distracted, looks at things and listen to noises that aren't there? That's normal, he's been able to see weird stuff his whole life!

Even after they all gain the ability see ghosts and that's obviously not what Ichigo is doing, they just tell people he's listening to and seeing ghosts.

Everyone else is a little confused by that but it's clear they're not going to get a real answer and tbh they're not sure they want one.

It's also important that they don't call too much attention to it. Ichigo doesn't seem to realize he does some of those things.

Like when someone pointed out the blood thing and he spent 20 minutes gagging and throwing up, tongue still stained rusty from the blood.

Or when someone mentioned the noises and he doesn't speak for days, quiet and withdrawn. And even now he cuts the noises off, biting them back and swallowing them down.

Or when people called him cruel, a thug, someone who wants to see others hurt, because he got into fight. He didn't fight back the next few times he got jumped, letting the hits land and taking it because the fear that he was all those things people said was stronger than any pain.

All the times he kept his mouth shut because someone joked about wolf teeth.

Or when he ripped his nails down until they bled so they weren't sharp enough to hurt anyone on accident.

Or when he kept his eyes down so no one could say he wore colored contacts to go with his "dyed" hair.

Orihime being so upset after the cookies she had given to someone, who made fun of a noise Ichigo made, had ended up bad! Oh no, oh gosh, how terrible that they got food poisoning! She's so sorry about that but there's a gleam to her eyes that has everyone backing off.

Chad disappearing and coming back with busted knuckles that go unnoticed, Ichigo focused on keeping his fingers curled into his palms and his mouth firmly shut.

Uryu ripping into some of the people who started rumors about Ichigo, channeling every cold and cruel part of him until several people are crying and no one dares say Ichigo's name for awhile.

Tatsuki throwing punches and Keigo attempting too, Mizuiro making things happen that no one can directly link back to him but everyone knows it's him.

Ichigo doesn't ask for a lot, but he gives a lot. Too much.

So, they can give him this. They will give him this. Let him do his odd, little quirks and they'll deal with anyone who tries to say anything.

💀

Shinigami are strange, strange enough that Ichigo blends in with them well, even though he's still sometimes a little strange for a shinigami.

Chad, Orihime, and Uryu are pleased that Ichigo fits in so well with all these new people, especially as they get to know them more.

Renji and Ikkaku are animalistic with too sharp teeth and a wild air to them.

Kenpachi is a monster wearing human skin.

Rukia, and her brother, have moments of cruelty and distance.

Unohana is something old and dangerous.

Kisuke is... unsettling, raises the hair on the back of their necks a little bit but Ichigo likes him. And as unnerving as he is, he's been very helpful.

Yoruichi has a mean streak in her that is very much like a cat batting around a dying mouse.

The visored are even worse.

The humans don't meet them until Ichigo after has already firmly included them in his ever growing group of important people.

The visored are unsettling in a way similar to Kisuke, but heavier. Something about them makes the little animal part of their brains sit up and take notice, the hairs on the backs of their necks standing up and they have to fight the urge to run.

But the visored are strange in the same way Ichigo is strange.

And they'll gives some bonus points to Kisuke and his, because they've never so much as batted an eyelash at Ichigo's more bizarre quirks.

The visored show off too sharp teeth in proud smiles and angry snarls.

They make odd noises between themselves and understand them.

They force people to look them in the eyes, black and gold occasionally making an appearance.

They lick at their wounds absent-mindedly and on purpose.

They make no apologies for who they are or how uncomfortable they make anyone.

More than anything though, they let Ichigo do those things. There a fondness to all of them when Ichigo does something strange front of them. Something that's normal to them.

💀

Ichigo doesn't seem to realize that everyone is actually charmed by his little quirks.

He's saved most of them enough times that there isn't much he could do that would make them anything less then incredibly fond.

It's fun and interesting to see all the things Ichigo does when he's happy and comfortable.

He does a little head tilt, exposed throat move to certain people. The humans don't even think he notices it, it took them awhile to notice it.

He does it to most of the captains, excluding a few like Mayuri and Soi Fon. Particularly to Unohana, Kenpachi, Byakuya and Toshiro for the captains. He does it to Kisuke and the visored.

They notice it and they just roll with it. Kisuke and Shinji (and most of the visored to be completely honest) touch his neck and shoulders a lot.

Unohana makes the smallest nod to him and never acknowledges it again.

It took Ichigo a long time to be comfortable enough with them to touch as much as he wants to. After they saved Rukia and returned home, he was constantly touching them. Grabbing at hands, throwing arms around them, sitting close enough to touch, etc. He even includes Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizuiro in the new, open affection.

He's comfortable enough to be that way with a lot of people now.

Shinigami, and the visored, are actually a pretty tactile and intimate bunch. Living as long as they do and having such dangerous and traumatic lives, makes touch and comfort very important.

So it's not uncommon for Ichigo to disappear, finding someone to nap with or someone finding him. People are already drawn to Ichigo, getting to know him and all his quirks just makes them love him more.
