THE MASTERLIST JOIN THE TAGLIST HOCKEY DISCORD
Tumblr media
Tonight was the student dance showcase for your college. It’s a concert put on by the students for friends, family and faculty. At 7 tonight, the curtains rise in the theatre on campus. You had already had the matinee show earlier this morning and it went smoothly. No wig, makeup or costume malfunctions thankfully.
As the top student in the dance course, you had the most dances during the concert out of all the students. With 2 dances per class you take as per the course requirements, you were already up to 12 dances. Some classes then do whole class dances. Add in the fact, selected students get solos, duos or trios if the professors so choose. 
Before the show, there was a cocktail hour in the lobby. It was mandatory for the dancers to attend. Every year, scouts attend the cocktail hour and night performance in hopes of finding dancers to add to their tally. A few of the previous year’s seniors are now on broadway. You didn’t know what you were hoping for. 
You were lucky, your boyfriend has finished his season and was back in Michigan for the show. But not only was he in the crowd tonight, but so is his family. Jack had also finished his season and came back for the summer. 
“Are you ready?” You heard his voice echo through your apartment. 
One final look in the mirror to smooth out your dress and you were out of there. It was your favourite formal dress. Instead of messing around with your hair for every dance, you had a few wigs throughout the night. For now, you were wearing a short black hair look. Your stage makeup was a smokey look. The dress you chose was picked with the thought of the makeup in mind. 
You made sure to grab everything before exiting your room. The only thing with you was your makeup case for touch ups throughout the show, your phone, charger and your wallet. All your costumes, shoes and accessories were still at the theatre after the morning show. It was easier that way. 
Quinn looked up from his phone as you walked into the lounge room. He was dressed in a pair of black dress pants and a button down with a tie that matched the colour of your dress. His hair neatly tussled in his beautiful natural way. His eyes wandered down your figure, taking in your appearance. “I like you with short hair.”
“So you want me to start wearing wigs more often?” You laugh. 
“No, I like your hair how it is naturally.”
The pair of you made your way to the car where Quinn would drive you over to campus. As the passenger, you got to control the music. What was better than listening to Blink-182 to hype you up. You arrived a little earlier than the cocktail hour so you could put your stuff at your mirror. After years of dancing, you had a particular way of setting up your makeup. Quinn waited while you ducked into the green rooms. The last thing to do was to make sure everything was in place just how you like it. So none of your quick changes would be impaired due to a misplaced accessory. After you had done that, you and Quinn meandered your way to the lobby of the theatre where they had a bar during events. Both of you ordered a soda while you waited for the others to arrive. Of course the first to arrive from the family was Luke, just finishing his freshman at UMich. But in tow behind the tallest Hughes, was the majority of his teammates. Including some of your classmates. Oh and can’t forget your older brother.
“Ayyyy,” Nolan grinned as the group neared. He held out his fist for you to fist bump. Something the pair of you have been doing since you were kids. Nolan was first to pull you into a hug, pressing a kiss to your forehead. “You are going to kick ass tonight.”
Luke nodded in agreement as he came to wrap his arms around you after Nolan was finished. The freshman was already a foot taller than you. It made you laugh at the boys’ comments. “It’s not a competition guys.”
Quinn rolled his eyes at the two of you. “It’s a showcase, not a competition.”
“You’ll kill it,” Luke smiles down at you.
Being Quinn’s girlfriend since freshman year, you had promised their mum to look after Luke when he finally got to UMich. And look after him you did. You were pretty sure you cooked at least three times a week for Luke, Nolan and at least two of their teammates. In return, the boys were alway looking after you. And their way of doing that was making sure everyone knew you were UMich team’s captain’s sister and dating THE Quinn Hughes. Star defenseman for the Vancouver Canucks. 
“And the best Hughes is here,” A voice interrupted.
You looked past Quinn where Jack was approaching with Ellen and Jim, the boys’ parents. “Yeah of course they are, Mama El is here.”
Jack pouted as everyone went around for hugs. Ellen made sure to squeeze you affectionately, whispering about how proud she is to be here for something other than hockey. It’s the first time she and Jim had been on campus since the Frozen Four Championship. The group huddles around a couple of barrels placed around the foyer to act as tables. 
“Miss Moyle,” Your theatre professor greets. “I have someone I’d like to introduce you to.”
Quinn stayed beside you as your professor guided you to where another one of your professors and a couple of well dressed people were chatting to them. After introductions, and the scouts getting past their awe, they talked about their companies and businesses. Luckily for the pair of you, one of your fellow dancers pulled you away to head backstage. With final goodbyes, and many good luck wishes, you and Claire went backstage. 
You stripped off your dress and hung that up. First dance concert was “A Little Party Never Killed Nobody’ and the troupe consisted of the top 21 students of the course. Your costume was a sparkly flapper dress. Once you made sure everything was perfect, feather and all, Claire, Maddie and yourself made your way to the stage. 
The large curtain was down blocking the stage from the view of the audience. Dancers were chatting between each other as they stretched and warmed up their bodies. Yourself and the girls found a free spot and started doing your own thing. You made sure to stretch your legs and back. 
“Guys,” one of the student photographers that’s hanging around called to the Opening troupe. “Can I get a picture please?!”
As a group, you all decide on doing the final poses of the dance for the picture. You were the point of the triangle and on the ground with Maddie and Claire behind you. After a hot minute you all relaxed and went back to stretching. The 5-minute warning was called and the lights behind the curtain dimmed. 
You moved into my starting position which was at the front with Claire. Both of you mirrored each other for the starting count. Julia, one of the performing arts students, stepped on stage to start off the night. Julia was a senior student who volunteered for the position of MC for the two shows. The lights dim backstage, and everyone gets in position as we hear Julia’s heels in front of the curtain.
“Good morning all, and welcome to the annual dance concert held by the Arts Students of the University of Michigan,” Julia welcomes. “The amazing show you will witness today is by the students. The dancers are the senior students of the dance department. Costumes, accessories and props were hand made by Fashion and Theatre Departments. Lighting, sound and tech are all done by the senior students of the Theatre and Production departments.”
The audience clapped and cheered.
“Before we start, please ensure mobile devices are turned off during the performance.”
There was a moment of silence for people to follow Julia’s words.
Julia hums appreciatively. “Thank you. Now onto the main event. You will see 8 different styles of dance displayed today. Acrobatics, Ballet, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz, Slow Modern, Tap and Theatre all included. To kick off a killer show are the top 21 students of the dance department. They come from a range of styles. Please welcome to the stage opening with ‘A Little Party Never Killed Nobody’.”
With those words, it becomes pitch black behind the curtain as the group eagerly awaits Julia to step off stage and for the curtain to rise. Everyone was as still as a statue when the curtain began to lift. The music started and lights started dancing around the stage as you started dancing. Every student loved dance so the passion showed within their moves.
The curtain closed for the last time of the night and all of you laid on the floor. Every single one of the students were exhausted after the last week of late night rehearsals. One by one each got up and went to their green rooms to start the process of cleaning up. First, you changed into a cute playsuit you had stashed for this very moment. You then shoved all your makeup into the bag and all your shoes into your dance bag you had brought earlier. Not bothering to sort them out. All of your costumes were put back into the garment bags they came in originally with the accessories all sorted into the correct bags. With your bag over your shoulder, you piled the costumes over your arm. 
“Need help?” Ellen offers from the door.
“Yes please,” you sigh. You hand her the majority of the costumes. “Thank you.”
“No problem.”
Ellen led the way out of backstage and through the crowd of family and friends waiting for all the dancers. The first person you spy was Quinn standing with a large bouquet of your favourite flowers. Luke grabbed the rest of your costumes and dance bag. 
“You were absolutely amazing,” Quinn compliments, pulling you in for a kiss. After you pull away, he hands you the bouquet and turns you to where you finally see Nolan standing with your mother.
“Oh!” You grin at the sight of your family. She embraces you, careful of the flowers in your arm. “I’ve missed you.”
“Beautiful,” Your mum smiles, pressing a kiss to your cheek.
“Thank you for coming,” You mumble to her. 
She waves off your words. “I’ll always come to your dance concerts. Can we get photos?”
Quinn and yourself agree with your mum and Ellen’s request and pose with the bouquet. Then it rotates out. Jack and Luke pop in at one point. You and Nolan get photos together for your mum. Yourself and all the Hughes family. You know how parents are. Oh and can’t forget one with you and all the team that had come to support you. 
You and Quinn head to his car with everything in split between the pair of you. After the boot was filled with all of your gear, the car door was opened for you, allowing you to slide in and finally relax. Your body ached and needed to have a shower before you finally could go to bed. 
You don’t even remember falling asleep in the car though. Next thing you know Quinn is shaking you awake telling you you were home. Neither of you bothered with all your stuff in the back. It was easy enough to pull out all the costumes tomorrow. You were too tired. With your wallet and phone in hand, Quinn and yourself head straight to your bathroom to shower. Like the amazing boyfriend he was, Quinn helped you undress and take out all the pins that were left in your hair. 
“Are you sure you wanted to shower? I can draw a bath for you if you really want.”
You just shake your head in response to Quinn’s offer. Without saying a word, he got the shower ready for you two and even dimmed the lights. Like earlier in the day, you help each other wash. Shower time was one of both of yours’ favourites. It was a moment to yourselves without interruption. 
After the shower, you went to slip one of Quinn’s old UMich shirts over your body when his hands stopped you. His fingers wrapped around your wrists, halting your movement. He was naked as well as he lifted you up and slid you right under the covers. 
“I just wanna be close,” Quinn mumbles as he climbs in beside you. 
Quinn’s arms wrap around your body and drag you to lay half on top of him. You barely had the energy to move your arms at this point. You could feel the calloused fingers stroking up and down your back. He then brushed his finger through your hair every now and then as well. 
“Thank you for coming tonight,” You whisper into the darkness, turning your head to press a kiss to Quinn’s jawline. 
He chuckles, “Of course I was going to support my girl as she showed everyone how amazing of a dancer she is.”
A giggle escapes your lips as you try to snuggle further into Quinn. At this point, if you got any closer, you’d be one person. For the first time in two months, you think you could finally fully relax without anything but Quinn on your mind. Quinn’s hand massaging your sore muscles felt like heaven. It was also making you sleepy.
“Just go to sleep baby girl,” He mumbled, pressing multiple kisses to your face.

Drunk kisses 〔Simon〕
Tumblr media
Pairing: Simon x fem!oc
Summary: In which Chloe's Friday night takes a turn.
Warnings: Alcohol use
Word count: 1001
┗━━━━━━━━━•❃°•°•°•°❃•━━━━━━━━━━┛
Chloe's POV
"Hey Chloe. How's it going?" Tobi said as he opened his arms for a hug which I gladly accepted. "It's been a while since we all last saw you."
"Yeah it's going alright. I've been extremely busy with work, yknow? Being a teacher is not easy." He chuckled, nodding his head understandingly.
Friday nights were the only nights where I can just relax. Truthfully, I loved my job but it gets difficult sometimes. The headteacher at the school I work at is completely incompetent. So, I have to do alot of the planning for not only my class, but also a few other things for the whole school.
That's why I love Friday nights. I get to go out with my friends and not worry about it all. I grew up with Tobi and Josh and that's how I met some of my closest friends.
"Ayyyy Chloe! You made it!" I heard from my best friend as I was suddenly picked up off my feet and spun around.
"SIMON PUT ME DOWN!" I giggled as he eventually placed me down so I was facing him. Over the almost 4 years that I've known him, he's always intrigued me. There's something about him that makes me want to spend all my time with him.
"So, what you drinking tonight? The usual?" He asked as we walked to the bar together.
"Yep, always the same." I always get a vodka coke, boring I know. It's just one of the only drinks I can handle. He bought me the drink and handed it to me. I thanked him and took a sip.
"Are you wearing a new perfume?" He asked, raising his eyebrow.
"You noticed? Yeah, I am." I smiled, looking down, feeling slightly flustered. I felt his finger under my chin, lifting my head up to look him in the eyes. His hand reached over to a stray strand of hair that had fallen out of my bun. He tucked it behind my ear before smirking and walking away.
I felt my cheeks go red. This has happened many times. He does something to make me flustered, then he walks away like nothing happened. He is my best friend, but I think there's some other feelings there that I have definitely thought about.
After that, I didn't see him for the rest of the night. I wanted to talk to everyone else seeing as I don't get to spend much time with them nowadays.
"Chloe, over here! Come do a few shots with us!" Ethan hollered me over. Him and Harry were handing out sambuca shots.
"Sambuca? I guess I shouldn't really be surprised by this." I chuckled before downing 3.
"Teacher by day, alcoholic by night." Harry joked which caused me and Ethan to laugh. Extremely loud. Catching the attention of quite a few people in the bar.
Some time had passed and we were now all quite drunk. Tobi, being one of the few sober ones, has helped us order Ubers to get home. JJ offered for me to crash at his and Simon's place for tonight which I gladly accepted.
We clambered into the Uber after saying goodbye to everyone and made ourselves comfortable. It was only a 10 minutes drive from the bar to theirs so it wouldn't take too long, thankfully.
The whole 10 minutes, was just giggling. There was nothing that funny being said, but whatever it was, made us laugh alot.
We made it in the house without anyone tripping over, but there were a few close calls.  I took my heels off as JJ and Simon collapsed on the sofa. I went straight to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I drank mine then got one for each of the boys. They chugged them before we all dragged ourselves upstairs.
"Where do you wanna sleep? We have the guest room free?" Simon asked. I agreed before saying goodnight to a half asleep JJ. He went into his room and almost immediately fell asleep. I giggled at the sight before following Simon into his room.
"Can I borrow some clothes? I really don't want to sleep in a dress." We chuckled as he handed me some sweats and a very oversized t-shirt. I went to the bathroom to get changed then came back to say goodnight.
"Chloe, do you just wanna sleep in here? There's enough room for the both of us on my bed." He asked, a grin plastered on his face.
"Okay. Your bed looks hella comfy." I exclaimed, jumping into his bed. I glanced up at him as he crawled in next to me. I was slightly sat up to check something on my phone as I felt his chin lean on my shoulder.
"Whatcha looking at?" He said with his eyes squinted.
"Something about work, very boring." I giggled, placing my phone down. He lifted his head off my shoulder, I turned to face him. Once again, staring into his eyes.
He didn't look away, so I didn't either. He leaned in slightly, so our lips were almost touching.
"Kiss me." I whispered. He closed the gap between us, putting a hand on my jaw and the other around my waist. I wrapped my hands around his neck, pulling him closer.
My heart started beating fast, I felt my blood rushing through my veins. The kiss felt delicate yet heated. One of my hands began to entangle in his hair. I felt him smirk into the kiss.
I pulled away to breathe which I wish I didn't have to do. We both sat there trying to catch our breath.
"You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that." He confessed. My eyes lit up as my face broke out into an even bigger smile.
"I like you so much Simon, you have no idea."
"Can I take you out on a date tomorrow night?"
"Pick me up at 6." I smirked, kissing him once again.

Ayyyy, Aqua! :D Happy STS! So I'm making my way through Titan Modern AU, and . . . actually, take two questions on it. 8)
I have legitimately looked everywhere, and I am severely curious. :') Have you thought of a title for this one, or is its title literally just Titan Modern AU?
More importantly, tho, how much did you have to change to make the world of Fangthane's Folly fit the modern day? (And what did you end up keeping? I notice there's magic and dwarves, but how different are these bits compared to their DnD roots?)
Hope this ask finds you well! :D o/
Hi Jax, this is technically a day late, but not really because time zones are a thing :P. I am very well, thank you. I am enjoying the fact that the words seem to be flowing quite easily for the time being and taking advantage of that to write a lot for all my ongoing series and creating new ones. Thanks very much for the questions, I have a lot to talk about with this AU :D. Answers are under a cut because the second one is going to get quite long.
Question 1
I don't currently have an actual title for this one yet. I have a tendency to title WIPs towards the end of writing them and this one is no exception. I have some vague ideas, but I'm not too concerned about it just yet. Especially since there's a high possibility that this one is going to throw some major curveballs my way once I get into the thick of the plot that might well change the kind of title I want to give it.
Question 2
Ah, the dwarves are technically not a thing for this one. Everyone is more or less human, unless it's directly stated otherwise. The reason Fangthanian women can have beards at all is down to a slight genetic quirk which means they are pre-disposed to much higher testosterone levels than average. The Throffite community, in particular, is very insular and tend to inter-marry within themselves due to a history of discrimination against them.
As to how I changed the setting to fit with the modern aesthetic:
I've modelled Fangthane city a little bit after towns like Fort William, since the location of Fangthane in Allansia has a relatively similar geography to that of the Scottish Highlands. So Fangthane city is no longer built into the mountain, but is a city that was built very close to the mountain (which is now called Ben Oir). Extrapolating from there, and taking into account the maps that exist of Allansia, it was a a matter of figuring out how and why there would be outposts for the kingdom that are so far away from the capital. In that case, an old empire made a lot of sense, and taking into account the relative time period this AU is set in (roughly the 90s to early 2000s), it also made sense that said empire had been disbanded, but that communities deriving from it still exist (hence why Stonebridge and Firetop are still mainly natively Fangthanian). So, yeah, culturally speaking Fangthane is basically the UK transplanted into Allansia at this point.
I wanted some of the history of Toreguarde to remain intact because there are plot things related to that that will pop up later in the story. The city was almost destroyed, officially, by what is considered to have been a terrorist organisation that was working on behalf of another state and/or one of the ruling council of Toreguarde of the time who went just teeny bit mad with power (Greydown was an absolute ass in canon, and is in this AU too).
As the setting, rather purposefully, appears to be lacking in magic, no mentions are made of demons, portals or the breaking of reality, even by those who were present at the time. The remaining Heroes still exist, but I'm working out what their exact roles in all that were. Egrim is still a priest, so that's him covered. Alexis, upon talking to Dru about it, was probably a sniper that was a part of the military forces of Toreguarde at the time, while Selene was probably some sort of science-y nerd person brought in to help explain some of the weirder stuff that went on that was kind of acknowledged and then later given plausible and sensible scientific explanations. She just happened to be somewhat decent at this diplomacy lark when communication with the reinforcements from Fangthane started going south, hence her current role in the story. She probably worked quite closely with Ivan, who I have yet to figure out the details of, with regards to that. I also need to figure out what Fai did and what happened to him...
I am doing a lot of this worldbuilding and adjusting Fantasy canon on the fly, to be quite honest, so not a lot of it is set in stone just yet. However, I have given some thought to the Throffite community both in Fangthane and in Toreguarde and some of their history and culture, drawing a lot on what I established about Throffism in the fantasy canon and doing some major research into the irl history of such things to make sure that anything I write about it is handled as sensitively as possible. I have also written copious notes on the hows and whys of the fractious relationship between Fangthane and Toreguarde that would fit in with more modern (Western, as that is what I'm familiar with) political norms.

Neverending Forces -- New Beginnings
-- Infinite the Jackal X OC (Trans, He/Him) --
Ah... well, here you go! I already posted it to AO3, but figured I'd post here too. Give y'all something else to read while Metalworks stories are on standby, yeah?
Anyway- It's been a while since I've properly written another canon character that has nothing to do with Resident Evil since that's ALL I've worked on for the past 3 years (no Saren doesn't count, I haven't actually written for him), as well as the first time I've written a canon character after only consuming/playing the game properly once yet loving the character for a while.
They did him dirty and I'm still so angry at both his poor excuse of an 'origin story' and the fact that he doesn't even last until the VERY end of the game because he flopped on the ground like a wet stuffed animal and then fucked off to who knows where. Once again, canon fucked us.
If y'all wanna see more stories for them, this may primarily be a 'ask suggestion only' series, because I'm not entirely sure how much else I'll write... So, I guess let me know, and if you wanna see a specific story interaction feel free to shoot me an ask with an idea and I'll see what I can do!
Sonic fanfiction lessgo as well as a pretty new story cover ayyyy

Warnings?: Severe injury/wound, threats, a hack job of a wound dressing
Summary: Takes place immediately after the events of Sonic Forces -- While scouting the city on a personal patrol to ensure the safety of it's citizens, our secondary hero, only nicknamed 'the rookie' thus far, makes an interesting- and possibly dangerous- discovery. While the fight has ended, a new part of life has begun; and this is only the beginning.
Tumblr media
The city was bustling rather quietly, though not in its normal capacity- rebuilding and clearing of debris had begun almost immediately after the robots in the city itself had been destroyed and the hallucinations, the 'clones', had disappeared from the outskirts. Citizens and nearby townsfolk had gathered in attempts to repair what they could before nightfall, working quickly with precautions being taken amongst the masses to prevent more injury. Though while many were on the ground, a lone figure made its way across rooftops, searching for any remnants of the battle beforehand. 'Tie up any loose ends' , he had thought to himself. Of course he stopped if he was needed, though was primarily met with praises. Humbling as it was, he didn't quite fancy the attention- he had only helped save the world, after all. It was the hedgehog that deserved the praise, not him.
The wolf hopped between rooftops with ease, his ears on a constant swivel for any yells for help or crumbling stone- only to pause as a small glint caught his eye. He nearly skid to a stop as his eyes were fully drawn to it, his head cocking to the side in curiosity. Even with all the metallic debris around from buildings and other structures, nothing had caught the sun as brightly as... whatever it was. Perhaps a light signal for help? he thought, suddenly launching forward to a lower rooftop for a better look. Someone who needed it but couldn't call?
He crouched as he landed on the concrete again, huddling to the edge. He could see the object clearer now, a pointed metallic piece on the ground, peeking from around the corner of a darker alleyway already affected by the lowering sun. It's brilliant gleam drew him closer, intriguing him to the point of movement. He jumped down once more, keeping his gaze on the object until he hit the pavement. One look around him reflected that most living souls were near the middle of the city where the most damage was- no one was around, and the sound was distant. Scents were dulled from the muzzle he wore, but his attention was once more brought towards the reflective piece as a familiar one drifted through in that direction. It was a scent that admittedly made the fur on the back of his neck raise, but he couldn't decipher exactly what it was... But it made his stomach turn.
It wasn't until he walked closer, side stepping a few feet away as the object grew larger and noticeably hollow. The shape of it was peculiar, the tip of it pointed and angled up with flattened edges instead of round. Inching closer gave it more detail, and he suddenly froze.
The object was... a mask.
A FAMILLIAR mask…
Infinites mask.
He felt his heartbeat quicken in a sudden rush of panic, his lips pulling back into an involuntary snarl under the muzzle as his eyes darted to and fro. His nostrils flared as he attempted to calm himself down. But... Infinite was dead...
Right...?
The thought crossed his mind quickly, and it eased him- but not by much. He only vaguely remembered the Jackal panicking before he was swallowed into another fight- but surely this meant he was dead.
The wolf took a breath, stepping forward with mild confidence. He neared the mask, picking it up off the ground and inspecting it. The object was surprisingly light, the once polished metal scuffed and the glass of the left eye cracked from when it was inevitably dropped. He turned it in his hands, his claws tapping along the metal. It was surprisingly well made now that he saw it up close...Well. Closer than he already had.
He held it up in front of him, his imagination running. A cold shot of fear ran along his spine once more as he looked directly at it, his vision seeming to flicker back to when he was cornered. Back to when he fought the Jackal face to face, when he met the wild gaze of the creature they had gone against. He dropped the thing once more as if it had burned him with the not so distant memory, his breaths quickening. He flinched as it hit the ground- but his ears suddenly perked as another noise drifted from the alley in response to the clatter. He looked up, the sound registering. It sounded like... pain.
He forced his fear away with a shake of the head as he walked into the darkening area, following the sounds of stifled groaning. He only paused again once another, more metallic scent hit his nose, and one glance at the ground seemingly confirmed his suspicions-
Blood.
And with the amount pooled in one area, whoever it was wouldn't last much longer.
The thought of another innocent losing their life forced him into movement, following the trail and handprints on the wall further down the dark alley. The glimpse of a white tipped tail disappearing behind the corner only urged him into a jog, nearly sliding as he rounded the corner himself. He opened his mouth to speak, but his voice caught in his throat as his eyes focused on the sight he found in front of him.
The Jackal.
The Jackal who, currently, kneeled and huddled against the wall with wheezing breaths, one hand over his face and the other pressed to the middle of his chest. He was in pain, clearly, but the wolf kept his distance. Eyeing him for a few seconds more revealed the cause of said pain; a large wound under the hand on his chest, staining the cream fur red as he seemingly attempted to apply pressure with his palm. Even from a small distance it almost looked like something had exploded from his chest, bits of torn and ripped flesh visible even under the tufts of soaked fur. It was only then that he remembered the stone that had once been fixed to his chest, and it suddenly clicked.
The Phantom Ruby... the thing that had been the ultimate cause of his 'powers'. The very thing he himself had countered with the duplicate, and the thing who's power he had helped destroy in the end- and destroying it seemed to destroy Infinite as well. Or, at least leave him with a flesh wound in the form of a deep hole in his chest.
He took another cautious step forward. He had a feeling the jackal wouldn't fight now... If he did, it was a death sentence.
Infinites ears swiveled madly as his footsteps grew closer, a single yellow eye darting up to see the wolf approaching. The recognition was instant, and a low snarl ripped through his throat.
" YOU- " he started, only for his voice to catch in his throat as the pain from his chest flared. The wolf stopped in his tracks, listening to the pained wheezes. If the pain didn't stop him, the blood loss would.
He was silent as he watched the jackal struggle, fighting back the sudden rush of anger. The sudden rush of rage he felt towards the jackal and what he had done, what he had helped do, knowing this is what he had become afterwards.
The great Infinite, once so high and mighty before running with his tail between his legs and now dying with a hole in his chest.
His thoughts rushed through his mind, some festering longer than others in such a short time. He could have left him there... he could have walked away. Let him bleed out. This creature was once a threat to the galaxy as they knew it, it was the least he could do…
But somehow, he couldn't bring himself to walk away.
He wasn't as bad as them.
He resumed his approach, suddenly reaching up to the strap of the muzzle. If the jackal was bare faced, he thought he may as well be, too. They were both new faces, after all.
He could feel Infinites eyes on him, pressing to the wall and growling like a cornered animal as the wolf removed the muzzle, kneeling down in front of him. He saw the jackals eyes move with more frantic confusion with the revealed pale fur, though his own attention was locked onto the hole his hand still covered. Blood seeped through his fingers, turning the dark grey fur a deep crimson, nearly gushing if he moved to shift away. But the wolf stayed silent, his head tilting to the side.
Infinite growled again.
" Get... aw-way... " he managed through bared teeth, but the wolf didn't budge. Instead, he moved closer, now determined to at least put a stop to- or at least slow- the bleeding.
He'd at least give him a chance.
He reached out for the hand on his chest, but the Jackal instead lunged forward and snapped his jaws at his wrist in a defensive snarl.
" D-Don't you DARE touch m- " he started, only for his voice to get cut off as the wolf lunged, himself, letting a small burst of rage take control for the shortest of moments. Whether it was a control tactic or a genuine threat to kill, even he wasn't sure. He moved without thinking.
Infinite found his back shoved against the ground with a pained yelp, scrambling to take hold of the wolf in defense before finding one set of claws around his neck while the other surrounded the wound on his chest. His ears were pinned to the back of his head as he looked at the wolf over him, miscolored eyes widening as he stared at a set of razor sharp teeth shown from a dangerous snarl, like that of a feral animal. This COULDN'T have been the same kid…
The wolf stared down at him, pale lips curled back over his fangs as he fought the anger towards the jackal. Fought the urge to claw more into his chest, to make the already deep wound even larger. But he stopped himself, seeing the realization of overpowerment in the eyes of what had once been the enemy. What might STILL be the enemy if he wasn't careful. His snarling faltered for a few moments as he contemplated, only to finally relax- but only just a bit.
" ... I could hurt you... " he said simply, the calmness of his voice unsettlingly jarring in contrast to the fangs still near the others muzzle, looking as if they were ready to tear in a moments notice. He felt Infinite freeze under him with a pained whine as he dug his claws into his chest, making sure he was fully aware of the truth his words held.
He COULD hurt him... but he wouldn't.
He stayed where he was for a few moments until finally moving his hand from the jackals throat, instead grabbing the stained bandana around his neck. An uncomfortable yip was forced from his throat as the wolf tugged it away, aware of the now burning sensation along the back of his neck from the fabric being yanked against it. Any other thought of moving was thrown out as another sudden pain shot through his system, this time caused by the wolf shoving the harshly folded bandana against the open wound to apply as much pressure as he could.
He pressed it against the jackals chest with force, soaking up blood and preventing more from pooling. His own ears went back at the resulting pained cry, feeling the others claws reach and dig into his arm in feeble attempts to get him away. But he didn't budge, pressing against the fabric and keeping his eyes on it. He waited for the jackals shock to waver, judging by the force of the claws in his arm. Wasn't so invincible now, was he?
A few seconds more was all it took, and he reached to untie his own bandana. The claws on his arm tightened as he shifted, centering it along the jackals chest while pressing it down, as well.
" Y-You- "
"Quiet."
Even Infinite couldn't help but listen, his voice hoarse and vision wavering as the wolf worked. Cloth was pressed to his chest, then his sides just under the arms- one side shoved under his back until he was forcibly rolled onto the same side with another groan, the wolf grabbing his arms and making him apply pressure, himself. He was still as the wolf tied his own bandana around the jackals chest in a tight knot. Only when he was satisfied with his work did he pry himself away, watching the once great Infinite curl into a ball with heavy, wheezing breaths and both hands pressed against his chest as if still trying to keep pressure. But even then he couldn't help but growl, the vibration sending more sparks of pain along his body.
"... I don't... I don't need... your pity..." he managed, his own teeth bared as he now attempted to fight the pain. But the wolf just stared at him, tilting his head.
"Not pity." He said quietly, earning a glance from the jackal.
There was silence between them, the wolf watching carefully. He simply backed away moments later as Infinite shifted, managing to shuffle onto his knees, yet still hunched over; then a moments pause before finally pushing himself up after taking wavering breaths, his body trembling still. The wolf kept his eyes on him, watching carefully. He was still weak, yes, but the fact he could still move now was mildly impressive, all things considered... He was starting to think that the ruby only increased the strength he already had.
He still kept his distance, though let out a huff. This was taking too long…
"You'll die here." He stated simply, and the jackals ears swiveled to pin against his head once more.
"What are you-"
"Come." The wolf said, grabbing the muzzle he wore from his side and bringing it back to his face. "Proper care. Safety."
Infinite growled again, his breaths nothing short of an angry wheeze.
" I don't- "
"Come, or die." The wolf repeated, backing away again. Another statement, as if he knew exactly what the outcome would be. The jackal stared at him, though let out a groaning growl.
He managed to steady his arms enough to lean forward on his knees, taking more pained breaths with every movement as he attempted to stand. He shifted more after each pause, using the wall to hold himself upright as he slowly stood. His legs trembled from the weakness and pain, but he pushed on, nearly stumbling into a trash bin once he tried to take a step from a sudden dizziness. But he steadied himself once more, keeping one hand against the tight bandanas on his chest.
"... Who are you..." he grumbled finally, turning to glance at the wolf who had begun his walk out of the alley.
The wolf paused at the question. It wasn't the first time he had asked, of course... but it was the only time he was willing to answer.
He turned to look over his shoulder, copper eyes burning.
"Rook." He said simply, nodding towards the road. "Come."
The jackal stared as he continued to walk, only looking down as his blood stained hands the farther away he got. He weighed his options quickly, but it was rather clear to him that he had no choice-
He had nothing else to go to, no matter if he wanted to live or not.
With a pained breath and a shuffle forward, he followed the wolf slowly, holding onto the wall and sticking to the shadows with the occasional met gaze to ensure he was still standing.

Aight hear me out: Butch DeLoria first kiss, but at Project Purity before Lone sacrifices herself? (Bonus points if she got that Broken Steel DLC ayyyy)
Thanks for the prompt!
Project Purity (Butch Deloria First Kiss Drabble)
Word Count: 1238
Lone was pretty sure she’d been clipped by more than one bullet at this point, but she couldn’t feel it. She couldn’t feel much of anything, actually. Her hands were numb where they were wrapped around the gun. She wasn’t sure she could’ve put it down if she tried.
All that mattered were the waves of Enclave soldiers who were here to stop her doing what she was planning on doing.
No one could stop her. She was the saviour of the wasteland, slayer of deathclaws and friend of orphans all across the DC ruins. Not even Butch could stop her once she got the idea in her head.
Poor Butch. He might’ve whined and complained almost constantly, but since they’d reunited, he’d been a steadying presence in her life. She hadn’t thought it was possible, but he’d been a shoulder to cry on about her dad’s death, and a drinking companion, and an extra gun to watch her back, but more importantly, he’d been a friend.
She was sure he would never forgive her for what she was about to do, but someone had to do it.
“I’ll do it. I’ll start the purifier,” she said, and watched the look of relief flash across Sarah’s face.
“Like hell you will!” Butch snarled, grabbing her arm and forcing her to face him. She made eye contact with Sarah over Butch’s shoulder. Sarah gave her a small nod. “Didn’t you hear what she said? Lethal levels of radiation.”
“Butch, I have to. We don’t have time to argue over this, this whole place is about to blow.”
“Bullshit. I’m not letting you do this!”
Lone stepped closer to him. His eyes widened ever so slightly. If these were her last moments, she was going to make them count.
She grabbed him by the front of his armour and pulled him towards her. Surprisingly, he didn’t fight back. He didn’t even flinch. When she pressed her lips to his, he melted into her embrace, hands falling to her hips.
She really wished that she could savour this. His lips were a little dry, but still soft. His smell was familiar and comforting.
If only she’d done this sooner. Then she would at least have had the opportunity to kiss Butch properly before she died. As it was, all she had was this stolen moment before she had to pull back.
Butch’s eyes fluttered open, looking dazed.
“Sarah,” said Lone, and Sarah took the hint. As Lone stepped back from Butch, he tried to follow her, to hold onto her, but Sarah was faster. She grabbed Butch and held him steady, while Lone stepped through the door into the purifier.
“NO! NO!” Butch fought against Sarah’s hold, but with power armour, he was no match for her. Only when the door had sealed shut behind her did Sarah release him.
Lone heard him pounding on the window, a cruel parody of her own position when her father had done the same thing. She swallowed. The air in here was hot and every breath itched.
“PLEASE! NO! I LOVE YOU! PLEASE DON’T LEAVE ME!” Butch’s words were heavy with sobs now. It took everything in her to make her way to control panel and switch the purifier on.
Her vision was starting to blur as she inputted the code. Butch’s voice sounded like it was getting further and further away.
But she’d done it. She’d turned the purifier on. Her sacrifice wasn’t for nothing. As her world went black, all she could hear were Butch’s screams.
*
Her head was pounding. Was this death? If it was, then the world was crueller than she’d imagined. She had thought she might at least have a chance to rest now.
There was light behind her eyelids, but they were too heavy to lift. There was something pressing hard against her hand. It was sharp and painful. She wanted to get rid of it, but she couldn’t move.
There was a sudden rush of cold in her hand, and then the world faded again.
The next time she awoke, she actually managed to open her eyes. The ceiling above her was unfamiliar, but there were big windows letting in a lot of natural light.
She blinked. Her eyes were itchy. She couldn’t make sense of her surroundings.
“Nosebleed?” That was Butch’s voice. She tried to turn her head towards the source of the voice, but her neck ached. “Are you awake?”
She opened her mouth to say yes, but all that came out was a scratchy sort of groan. She was suddenly aware of how dry her mouth is.
Eventually, she managed to squeeze out the word, “hurts.”
“I’ll call the doctor,” said Butch. “I’ll get them to give you more Med-X.”
The doctor. Once upon a time, the only doctor that either her or Butch knew was her father, but he was long gone now. Tears pricked her eyes, but she felt too dehydrated to cry.
Her eyes fell closed. She heard more people talking now, something about dosages and drips and more things she couldn’t understand. The one steady, constant thing was the feeling of a warm hand in hers. She slept.
The third time she awoke, Butch was sleeping. She was feeling far more alive, and much better hydrated now. Her companion was laying back in his chair, socked feet resting on the edge of her bed.
She couldn’t help but crack a smile. She was sure the doctor would’ve told him not to do that, and Butch was never one to do as he was told.
He looked exhausted. There were dark circles under his eyes and his face was unshaven. She decided to let him sleep.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before a doctor came back in to check on her. He spoke at full volume, with no care for her sleeping guest, and Butch jolted awake, fumbling for his knife as if he feared attack.
“It’s okay, Butch,” she said. Her throat felt a lot better, her voice clearer. Butch dropped his hands, embarrassed.
The doctor continued on as if nothing had happened. Lone let him take her blood pressure and examine her eyes. When he was done, he left the two of them alone again, and silence fell over them.
“So… You’re probably mad at me, huh?” she asked.
“Mad at you?” Butch let out a hysterical laugh. “You kissed me and then tried to sacrifice yourself. I’m furious with you.”
“I’m sorry,” she said. “You know I had to do it.”
“You didn’t have to. It didn’t have to be you.”
“There wasn’t time to find anyone else. And I wasn’t going to condemn Sarah to death just because I was too afraid to finish what my dad started.”
“You stupid, suicidal-”
Lone touched his hand, cutting him off. She looked up into his eyes. She could see the heartbreak in them.
“You said you loved me,” she said, quietly. Butch froze. When he didn’t respond, she said, “Did you mean it?”
“Of course I meant it. I thought it was obvious.”
A smile flickered at her lips. “I love you too, Butch.”
Butch almost knocked over his chair in his haste to get to her. Cupping her face in his hands, he kissed her over and over again, until they were both laughing.
“Don’t think that this makes us even,” he said.
“I wouldn’t dream of it.”

Hiya! I am back, I finished my exams so sorry very much for the absent.
Question:
1. The lackadaisy sequel au your talking about it had me curious, what's going to happen to Nia after Carmen's death and the great depression came. Also is Nia going to be a detective soon? That's sounds intriguing to be honest!
Furthermore is the au going to mainly focus about Nia or are you going to include the Lackadaisy crew (ex; Rocky, Freckle, Ivy, Mitzi and etc.) and the Marigolds? (Mordecai, the savoys, etc.) To me I think they have some connection with Carmen, and I feel like they would have the biggest major effect to their business, due well, stock market crash.
(I could've add Wick and Edmund here but I think these two are just investors to both bootleg business... Edmund said in the comic about Marigold. Idk.. Ouch my memory.) Although that's only my interpretation, I am not a expert at history.
I wonder what you'll plan to do with the main cast? (If not then its okay, hopefully this doesn't pressure you.)
2. Speaking of the main cast! What does Nia thinks about the Lackadaisy? Did she meet one of them or not yet? What does she thinks of she meets Rocky?
3. Victoria or Vicky, does she know Carmen has a daughter? What kind of relationship Carmen has to her boss? Opinions and such.
4. What happens if Carmen's family meets Lucio's family? This isn't cannon btw since I said in a post Lucio turn tore his connections to his family. Amelita and Avis (I know she's dead, but I wanna hc this.) Could get along well, like Amelita rambles a bunch of things like work, family and household while Avid just listens to her smiling. Avis may like the fierceness energy Amelita has lol. (No wonder why Dakila is down bad for her WhEeZ!-)
I don't know how Alexander will interact to Ezekiel, Mayari (Amanda's new name) and Manuel, aka Lucio's sibblings. Seeing how Carmen doesn't like Alexander I can imagine Mayari despise Alexander, if he belittles her, Maya won't hesitate to bite his hands.
Manuel lowkey be intimidated on how cold Alexander is, Ezekiel doesn't like Alexander but he keeps on good manners and he isn't wanting to plan a physical fight with him. (Amelita will pull Ezekiel and Lucio ears if they did.)
That's all, have a good day/night! ^^
Ayyyy, glad ur done with exams! Exam week is starting next week for me, so I'm trying to save my relax time
Well, again, we don't really know when Lackadaisy ends in the universe time, but in this sequel Au it started two years after all of Lackadaisy's events. At this time, Nia is eighteen, a considered adult. In this situation, Nia is tempted to just go live back on the streets like she always did, and just keep herself hidden. However due to Carmen's impact, Nia probably would first thing go too Lucio after Carmen died. When the great depression came, Nia didn't really know what to do, but along that time, Nia just got into college
Im not sure when Nia will become a detective, I'd have to talk to her owner about it. But Nia partly became a detective so she could try and stop gangs killing people like how Carmen died
2. Nia has met Lackadaisy! The people she's closest too are Ivy and mainly Rocky. Mostly because they're both mentally unstable. Nia finds freckle boring, then again, she finds it hilarious when he's scared.
When it comes too the others like Mitzi and Zib, she formed that connection right off of Carmen. Considering Carmen knew Zib and Mitzi since she was around Nia's age, Nia had some small connection to Mitzi that she couldn't really explain. Nia just think Zib Is a funny guy with a saxophone. Again, in this sequel Au, it was just a concept at first, I only made one peice of art for it, it isn't a fully fleged out thing. But the sequel Au if fully developed would probably focus more on Nia's life and truama up till now, how she processes it and navigates life when another load of truama has been dumped on her.
3. Victoria does know about Nia. Victoria again, is running a huge business, she finds no reason too form good connections with her workers. Carmen always thought Victoria was cold on the outside, warm on the inside. Just having a hard shell to protect herself.
4.i do think that they would get along! Avis is very calm and compassionate, she knows how to bring people together. She'd probably be the one hosting the party meet and greet. I feel like she'd really get along with Lucio's sisters.
Elias is also very friendly, if anything. Carmen got most of her bright energy from Elias. He'd probably be laughing loudly with Lucio's dad.
Now, if we're gonna include Irene and Alexander, it'll be weird considering they're the step fam. But Irene is a talker, she'll go on and on about random stories and not stop. If anything, Alexander would try to save face, fail and then get kicked out of the party
Ty for the questions! Feel free to ask more!

For the ask game lol
Peter
Nebula
Mantis
Phos
Toko
Aoi
Sakura
Papyrus
Sans
Ayyyy thanks for the ask. Been a while since I've filled out one of these memes <3
Answers below.
Peter OTP: Peter/Nebula, of course. If the 100k+ words of fanfiction I've written about them is anything to go by, they are my OTP of all time. <3 I want Peter to move on and find happiness with someone new after vol. 3 and the movie planted the seeds for these two ending up together in the future really well I think. BrOTP: This was the hardest to decide because I love Peter's friendships with all the other Guardians. Gonna go with Mantis here though because I love how she looks out for her bro and tries to steer him in the right direction. Wish we'd gotten to see more of them being siblings after the holiday special 'cause the confirmation that she was Peter's sister made me so happy! TuT OT3: Shipping Peter with Nebula and Gamora at the same time would be really weird so instead I'm gonna go with Nebula/Peter/Thor in like, a V shaped polycule where Peter is dating them both but Nebula and Thor aren't into each other. NOTP: Ro/quill. I don't think I need to explain myself with this one, but shipping the raccoon with the humanoid characters is weird and gross to me.
Nebula OTP: Same as above, I think her implied feelings for Peter in vol. 3 make all the sense in the world. I mean, why wouldn't Nebula fall for the same person as Gamora? That's just how her life is. I think these two being together would fit their arcs well. Nebula learns to accept that she doesn't have to always be competing with Gamora in order to be worthy of love, and Peter gets his shit together enough to see how Nebula stuck by and cared for him and how Gamora was right about how the person he fell for "sounds more like her." BrOTP: I love her friendship with Rocket so much! Two sad cyborgs goin' on adventures together for five years, I'd kill to see more of that. OT3: Same as above as well I guess, but I don't see Nebula being poly. NOTP: I'm fine with all the big Nebula ships really even if I don't consume their content.
Mantis OTP: I used to ship Mantis/Nebula back in the day and I think that's still my fave Mantis ship even if I no longer go there. I also like the idea of her having a crush on Gamora. BrOTP: Mantis and Drax are my favorite duo ever. Just a couple of strange goofballs pranking each other and causing chaos. OT3: Can't think of anything for this one. NOTP: I don't hate Mantis and Drax as a romantic pairing but them just being weird best friends means so much to me. We need more platonic M/F relationships like them.
Phos OTP: I like all the Phos ships but can't deny that Phos/Cinnabar is my favorite. I know you haven't read the manga yet but I reread this one part of it earlier in the week that makes me wanna throw Phos in the trash because we could have had it all!! xD BrOTP: I really enjoyed Phos and Cairngorm's dynamic. OT3: Phos/Cinnabar/Antarc. Idk how it'd work out but all I know is that I want all three of these rocks to be happy. NOTP: I'm not picky with HNK ships but I'm sure some people ship Phos with Aechmea so no thanks to that.
Toko OTP: Toko/Komaru! These two mean the world to me. Seeing Toko end up with an amazing girlfriend who supports and loves her after everything she's been through and the development she underwent in Ultra Despair Girls damn made me cry. BrOTP: I love the interactions between her and Makoto in her Free Time events. The Naegis are the only ones who can tame this girl. OT3: I like the Toko/Sayaka ship so I can imagine an AU where she survives and throuples up with Tokomaru. NOTP: Byakuya. These two are the worst for each other and no one can change my mind.
Aoi OTP: I very much enjoy her and Sakura together. BrOTP: Yuta Asahina deserved better and in my personal headcanon, he survives UDG and gets to see his sis again. OT3: I think Sakura had a boyfriend so sandwich Hina in between them. NOTP: Got no strong negative feelings for any Hina ships.
Sakura OTP: Same as above. Love me a big buff sporty girlfriend and her smol buff sporty girlfriend. BroTP: I really enjoyed her Free Times with Makoto, too. OT3: Same as above. NOTP: Also same as above. It's hard to go wrong with Sakura ships.
Papyrus OTP: I don't ship Papyrus with anyone but I remember liking Papyrus/Mettaton when I was younger. BrOTP: I fucking LOVE his friendship with Undyne. Anyone who doesn't call Papyrus and Undyne in every room in the game to see what weird shit they say is missing out. OT3: I got nothin'. NOTP: Font/cest. Don't understand why this is such a big thing.
Sans OTP: These days I like the idea of Sans being aroace but I remember having a very brief phase of shipping Sans/Asgore xD BrOTP: Him and Papyrus ofc, but I also like him seeing Frisk as a little sibling, too. OT3: Sans/Fries/Ketchup NOTP: Fr/ans. That is a child...

"I'm starting to want you to rip this suit off me" SIR I- honestly props to Rain for not having his head explode after that line from Phayu
The way Rain immediately gets ready to throw hands when the poser starts to insult Phayu - I'd almost forgotten Rain wasn't always this docile, he's actually a rude little shit lmao
The pinky promise awwww
Of course Phayu won yayyyyy
The way Rain almost tackles him xD I love how they just ignore the poser and leave bc they're too eager to, uh, get Phayu out of his suit
Daaaaamn the way Rain took charge there for a second 🔥🔥🔥 the way he grabbed Phayu's chin
I'm surprised they made it up those stairs holy moly
The lip bite?? The tongues???
Rain: "P'Phayu, you said you're happy when you're with bikes but I'm happier to spend a moment like this with you" see, what he meant to say was "you like riding bikes but I prefer to ride you" considering that's literally what he's doing rn
OKAY HE LITERALLY SAID "THIS IS ALSO RIDING" I GUESS I'M PSYCHIC AND ALSO I'LL BE GOING NOW BYE
The forehead kiss I am meltingggg

"Does this mean I like you, P'Phayu?" HAHAHA RAIN DO YOU?

Oh geez, that was weather-boosted, but it wasn't even a crit.
Yeah, so I've been playing SUPER carefully with Gooey and Dusty. Dusty's defenses and speed will go up once he evolves, but for Gooey, it's mostly her good SpAtk and tons of HP that help. Her defenses are like wet tissue paper.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I just really liked this quote.
Tumblr media
I can see clearly now the rain has gone~
Tumblr media
After spending a little more time on Route 120, we made it to 121! It takes a while to make it to Lilycove City.
It was time to look for our next encounter!
Tumblr media
And out popped a Shuppet, which I personally find super exciting. I've never really used one for long before.
Went for a Yawn, but Shuppet turned out to have Insomnia, so I opted to just use an Ultra Ball. And it worked first try!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Welcome, Mallory! (Further screenshots to come later.) "Mal" fits her Pokedex entry, and I always liked the name Mallory.
If anyone's curious, this was my second encounter, and as much as I love Gloom, I'm glad I got Mallory.
Tumblr media
My Species Clause for this run doesn't apply to the entire evolutionary line, just Pokemon I have fully registered in my 'Dex. So even though I have an Oddish in my PC, that would have been my encounter for the route. And I already have, like, 3 other Grass types I haven't put in the party yet either.
A Wingull also appeared later, which also would have been unideal (for reasons explained in the post where I caught Gooey).
Speaking of Gooey. Something felt strange to me whenever I saw her name. I finally realized what. I didn't name her in all-caps like the rest of them! Should I edit it to be all-caps, or nah? I don't think I will, I think it's kinda cute as it is.
Shuppet turned out to be pretty common on this route. Their only damaging moves are Curse and Night Shade. What has a pair of jaws AND a pair of sunglasses? That's right, it's Dusty!
Tumblr media
And since they outspeed, they're basically doing the work FOR us.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Dusty did one-shot a Shuppet at max health with a crit Bite, though. I'm very proud!)
We spent a lot of time grinding around here.
Can I just say how much I freaking LOVE this character design! If it wasn't so close to Halloween already/I didn't already have a costume picked out, I'd try to make this!
Tumblr media
Fashion GOALS. Maybe sometime later I'll do a cosplay.
Discovered a new strat in letting Mim take the Poisoned status from a wild Oddish just long enough to enter a trainer battle, since he has the Guts ability. Hex Maniac Tammy's poor Ralts didn't stand a chance.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hey, we hadn't seen Team Aqua in a while. I sure hope they're just going to pay their respects.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We'll check that out sometime soon.
Tumblr media
And finally, I just want to highlight Seviper's sprite in this gen. I love it! It's so saturated.
Finally, we made it to Lilycove and stopped for the Pokecenter. Then went right back to the route, rinse and repeat.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
AYYYY, there's a Pikachu! Kind of a goofy battle. The double paralysis happened again not long after with a Gentleman's Manectric.
Tumblr media
Dusty's close to evolving, but there's also something else interesting to me around here. Can anyone guess what it is? You'll see in the next post. Besides that, I'll need to go pull someone from the box and use Cut to grab some items. So we'll be seeing a lot more of Route 120.

HER WORKS ARE SO INCREDIBLY YUMMY I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER WRITING STYLE ALONG WITH HER STORYTELLING AND CHARACTER PORTRAYALS ( also her ability to swap between angst, nsfw, romance, comfort and comedy so languidly is FANFUCKINGTASTIC )!! when i had first gotten into ff7, i stumbled across a sfkr fic of hers, and it was down the sfkr rabbit hole from there🫡 my other rec, which is what ive been reading weekly rn is the fear of falling stars by @/silentsaint AND I AM FERAL OVER THIS BOOK BC ITS SUCH AN INSANE TAKE THAT ALTERED MY BRAIN CHEMISTRY IN THE CRAZIEST WAY POSSIBLE. the literary devices used in the fic and descriptions, the portrayals, the stakes — EVERYTHING. SO GOOD.
I JUST FINISHED READING YOUR DRABBLE AND IT WAS SO ADORABLE ANON AUSKWHD I AM VERY MUCH DEFEATED BY YOU‼️ OH AND I HOPE YOU DONT MIND ME FOLLOWING YOU BTW!

Chapter 3.2 Notes:
holy fuck we are (technically) finally DONE with the first book. what a milestone. damn
dude this was such a chonky chapter!!! i wanted it to be out yesterday to mark the one month anniversary since the tl began but oh well
ayyyy flynn genius cooking days (run, yuri. run. this will not last for long)
master chef flynn and yuri (judge) fr
yuri not being able to cook and flynn cooking amazing food this is truly the era of all times
yuri inferiority complex is back! man i missed it. dont worry this complex about food won’t last for long (cherish it while it lasts)
nooooo yuri new sword. surely flynn is going to go our sword this time right.
omg merchants and nobles becoming bankrupt because of price drop due to previous hoard? KARMA. PAYBACK BITCH. DIE.
haha wait wtf the uncle really is dead?? :( raven-coded uncle noooooooo
oyea and between the prev chapter and this chapter raven really was going thru his second character arc huh. man was fighting for his life and dying 
ok so ig the implication is that alexei or the council changed drastically after the entelexia war so like either alexei gave up on good morals due to shitty council behaviour or all his good men died during the war possibly due to council shenanigans but anyway alexei is definitely evil alexei now
also i just realised but yuri and flynn do reference a chivalrous thief/義賊 in the miska quest when raiding flynn’s room lmao
good to know yuri has been breaking into houses ever since he was a kid
yo worthless junk がらくた mentioned from the game prologue lmao
haha omg yuri and flynn scrapping is golden 
ah yes the somewhat subtle allegations of yuri and flynn being married couple in the future since they know everything about each other (except for yuri’s scar huh) /cope
man this whole book is just one entire character quest for flynn
ha ha omg yuri punching flynn made my day
omg no way… so the chapter title omoi no katachi is talking about yuri and flynn screaming? im gonna be sick fr
ah yes i love how jiri’s way of solving violence is with more violence /j
hanks calling jiri baasan is so lol
yoooo no way flynn quotes jiri when he says a crime is a crime /delulu
‘just take the fucking medicine norein’ has the same vibes as ‘get in the robot shinji’
norein to jiri: i have one final message for flynn… please tell him… change da world… my final message… goodbye… *windows sound*
hanks: take this bread *eminem rat*
jareth and the other boys waiting for yuriflynn to come back *mr bean waiting meme*
ah yes yuri making flynn search for him smh typical yuri this is why flynn keeps telling yuri to meet him at a time and place in the main game bc otherwise yuri cant be found
okkkk omg thats so cutee ahhhhh so yuri really say flynn is coming to search for yuri instead of the other times when it’s been the other way around huh aaaaarrggghghhghhhhh *chomping at the bit*
man just imagining the beaten up boys sitting on the wall staring into the distance in the night awww
ha ha both of them fell asleep under the stars totally not fruity coded
haha omg they split the bread of course they did somewhere in the future ted is rejoicing ajfdnqlkejfqwe

F1 Re-Watch 2022: Round 20 - Mexico City
If you want to know just how unobservant I was to much of the 2022 season, I had no idea the race’s name was changed until today 🙃 (still just gonna tag everything as the Mexican GP bc I am lazy)
Anyhow, this is also the last race I remember absolutely nothing from bc I didn’t watch it (I kid you not prior to today my Mexican GP 2022 tag is literally just Seb and Bono gifs) 
So, no thoughts, head empty, I’m a tad scared but let’s jump in
Okay I tell a small lie, I do remember the Mariachi version of the F1 theme doing the rounds on the interwebs. But in terms of racing??? No clue whatsoever.
I haven’t even looked up the results so woooo (though let’s be real Verstappen is gonna win isn’t he?)
ngl I do love the Mexico circuit, it’s really good despite being so flat, and ot’s great that a historical circuit has been able to make a comeback and stick around
OMG THEY PLAYED THE MARIACHI VERSION OF THE F1 THEME DURING THE STARTING GRID
okay F1, you have that one right.
Speaking of,✨ starting grid whiplash ✨
Lance P20 bc of a penalty. Pain.
Seb P16. More pain. At least he’s next to Mick.
Ouch Charles P7.
BOTTAS P6?????
aaaand Lewis P3, we stan.
Well that was made much more bearable by the Mariachi theme, 11/10 would recommend to a friend.
How tf did Bottas drag his Alfa into P6 though??????
[Formation Lap]: Almost a 50/50 split on the grid between starting on the softs or mediums, inch resting.
Somewhat unrelated I’m finally getting used to seeing the silver Merc again when the 2023 season picks up again next week dvubheush
oh god what if there’s carnage at the start??? I am NOT emotionally prepared
boys please don’t be dumb it’s 9pm as I watch this and I don’t want to deal with nonsense
[Start/Lap 1]: No carnage but Lewis went full ZOOM into P2!!!
I didn’t need to look at my screen to realise Perez got past Russell for P3 there was a VERY loud cheer
“Vettel and Stroll had a brilliant start” INJECT IT!!!!!!!! 💚💚💚
P14 for Seb and P15 for Lance THAT’S MY BOYS!!
[Lap 3]: And the race has instantly calmed down ubhesu
Comms are making it sound like it’s the first time the top 6 cars have been top 6 in the race??? either that or it’s been a while since it happened but that’s a fun-ish stat
the replay of Lewis’ start *chef’s kiss*
[Lap 5]: Bottas looking to pass Alonso for 7th
The downside of watching a full season over the course of so many weeks is that whenever you hear ‘Plan A’ on a team radio you immediately think of Ferrari and cry
[Lap 6]: Lewis fastest lap, it’s been so loooooong
[Lap 7]: Dan trying to pass Zhou for P12
ayyyy Seb’s joined the party!!!
Livery watch: all together now, Aston Martin preeeeeeeeeeetty
[Lap 8]: Ah so RBR are on the softs, and Merc on the mediums. inch resting
I mean Ferrari are also on the softs, but we all know how little I trust their pitwall at this point
Wait this was Dan’s 230th race???? That’s WILD
[Lap 9]: Aaaaaand Dan takes P12
Meanwhile Lance got a little bit violent getting past Gasly avhageg
[Lap 11]: Bottas is still in P8 behind Alonso, not quite gaining time but not losing any either.
[Lap 12]: Ted brining a Seb update, 100% the content I am paying for
Him and Lance are still vibing in P14 and 15, hardly anyone has changed positions.
It’s all a bit... static
[Lap 13]: avhaeugh not Pierre and Lance pushing each other off the track 😭 
BOYS
[Lap 14]: Lewis is starting to gain on Verstappen you say???
*dives head first into the sea of delusion*
[Lap 16]: the AMR22 has re-gained tractor status as Lance is being chased down by Alex
[Lap 17]: Alex running on pet power and dreams, lad is SPEEDY
5 sec pen for Gasly’s violence on Lance
“I hope they serve the penalty properly” Hearing this after Bahrain 2023 makes it 11 times funnier
[Lap 18]: And Lance is first into the pits and gets another set of softs
[Lap 19]: “Consider Plan C” I refer back to my comment during Lap 5 🥲
Charles in 2022 🤝 Seb from 2015-2020: Having Ferrari’s braincell
SEB ONBOARD!!!! Still in P14 but idc bc I love him
he’s also 8 tenths behind Zhou
[Lap 22]: still a two second gap between Verstappen and Lewis.
I know I said I didn’t want carnage at the start, but I did want some racing
[Lap 23]: I don’t think anyone else apart from Lance has stopped yet
[Lap 24]: And, here comes Perez for his first stop, for a set of mediums
ouch 5 sec stop
Nicky also pits
[Lap 25]: “My tyres are OK mate” LEWIS????? Are you okay??? Blink twice if you need help
rip “Bono my tyres are gone” 2014-2022
[Lap 26]: and while I recover from my shock Verstappen pits, also softs to mediums
[Lap 27]: Perez having DRS issues????
well they must have been fixed bc he just passed Charles for P5 (though Charles is yet to stop)
[Lap 28]: Anyway Lewis leading his second race in a row, INJECT IT
oh it’s a Merc 1-2!! 2016-2018 me would be so disappointed in me celebrating that avdfuvhu that’s called growth
[Lap 29]: Angela sighting!!!! 
Charles also makes his first stop for mediums
And Lewis pits as well, likely reacting to Ferrari.
Mediums??? So they’re doing a two stop then
[Lap 30]: It is not it’s the hards
[Lap 31]: still loads of cars yet to stop
[Lap 32]: And as I say that Lando pits for the hards
“Lewis is matching Max Verstappen lap for lap” Inject it, tattoo it into the sky, write it out on post-it notes and hand them out to strangers 
[Lap 34]: Ocon next to pit for the hards 
[Lap 35]: Russell joining the one stop for hards party
lol at the order being RBR; Merc; RBR; Merc; Alonso
El Plan intensifies 
Seb watch: HE’S INTO P11 BESTIES!!!!
He’s still yet to stop but I truly do not care
[Lap 37]: oh not McLaren wanting to try Plan C for Dan
I kid you not, I hear Plan X over the radio and I do not trust it no matter the team so thank you so much Ferrari
[Lap 38]: Russell being told to lift and coast at the 150m board for the rest of the race??? W13 intensifies 
argh Perez is starting to catch Lewis, it was a lot of fun while it lasted
[Lap 39]: Seb pits for mediums, and he comes out in P16.
[Lap 40]: Sainz passes Alonso for P5 for some mild Spanish on Spanish violence
ah, Alonso was on his in lap as he’s pitted for hards
[Lap 42]: Ocon with a noice move on Bottas for P10
oh, Bottas is fighting back, MIDFIELD SPICE WELCOME TO THE PARTY
[Lap 43]: “This tyre isn’t good mate” I’ll take that as a ‘Bono my tyres are gone’ resurrection
and followed up by a Bono sighting 🤍
[Lap 44]: Seb up into P14, we’re once again diving into the sea of delusion in the hope of Team Green points
Also Ted timed Gasly’s 5 sec pen with his watch to see if Alpha Tauri timed it correctly asavhaeu
Ted Kravitz for FIA Prez I think he’d do a wonderful job
[Lap 47]: And with Zhou pitting, everyone has finally done at least one stop
the strategy has been all over the place this race, I guess in part to the mix of starting compounds
oh no Lance is the only one two have done 2 stops 
[Lap 48]: Seb watch: P13!!! The hopium is still alive and well folks
“He [Verstappen] is out on the track I promise you” avuheugh you know a driver has been dominating a race when you barely see them on the TV feed
[Lap 49] so Seb is roughly 15-ish seconds away from P10 🤞
Lewis is still having engine clip outs I am no joking when I say I will sledgehammer the W13
[Lap 50]: Cut to Martin Garrix bc there is barely anything happening on track
[Lap 51]: and as I say that Yuki v Dan for P11
THEY TOUCHED
oh dear, Dan almost flipped Yuki
but Seb is up into P12, the racing gods taketh and the racing gods giveth
[Lap 52]: Ah Yuki’s pitting for a new front wing, and the old one does not want to come off
oh no Ted thinks he has suspension damage 😭
Dan you plonker (in this case I do not support his wrongs)
oh no it was sidepod damage ☹️
[Lap 54]: Seb v Gasly v Zhou 🍿
oh wow Dan slammed with a 10 sec penalty.
[Lap 56]: Seb down to P14 and defending from Zhou, this is why we’re self aware about when we go delusional
[Lap 58]: welp I was not aware about RBR potentially matching Seb’s their record of winning 9 races in a row 🥲
okay I’ll let Zhou have P14 bc that was a pretty nice move on Seb
[Lap 61]: oh hello Dan v Alpine
to be fair he’s on the softs and they’re on the hards but he’s ZOOMING
[Lap 62]: 10 laps remaining klaxon
and Dan passes Ocon for P7
[Lap 65]: “Does that look like it’s terminal now? Oh that’s a Williams” Oh Ted
and there stops Fernando
oh it’s a VSC
[Lap 69]: And suddenly it’s 3 laps remaining
Seb still P14, no team green points today 😭
[Lap 70]: and Merc pit Russell to go for the fastest lap
and Dan has somehow managed to pull a 10 sec gap over Ocon so he’ll keep P7 even with his pen
[Lap 71/Finish]: Oh, Verstappen broke the record of most wins in a season huh.
Anyway LEWIS P2!!!!
Taking all the tiny crumbs I can get
And Russell did bag fastest lap at the end, such a drama king
Well... that was... somewhat average. Lewis getting P2 at the start was the most that happened in the top 6 and the midfield spice was very few and far between, though the bits we did get was fun to watch.
So a very straight down the middle 5 front wings out of 10. Next race - Brazil!

Ayyyy Thanks for the tag!
Answer these 5 questions below and then tag 5 people who you'd like to challenge to this game
1. What are you looking forward to the most, this year?
My birthday on august 20th, halloween and maybe getting my stuff together to start doing art commissions(maybe)
2. If you could speak to any fictional character, who would you choose?
Do ocs count? cuz there's this priest a friend of mine has who is rich and obnoxious so I would just rob him lmao, but if they don't count that's a tough choice bc my mind thinks about these choices:
- Carmilla from the book "Carmilla"(or generally, any queer character from older literature) to ask them how they feel about the fact that now there is more acceptance and now people can celebrate them more openly
-Litterally Toad from super mario, why? Because it would be hilarious to ask them about extremely serious topics and see them talk about them with that voice
3. What's the first thing people notice about you?
Irl the first thing people notice is the fact that I have blue eyes(fr, since I was a child I had ppl just come to me like"whoa ur eyes blue" ) online probably the fact that I ramble about one specific thing once I start writing.
4. When is the last time you played a game? What was it?
If dnd counts then I played it yesterday in the evening.
5. What was the last nice thing you bought for yourself? Not groceries or such, but something that made you happy?
Oof, it's been a while, I don't usually buy myself stuff unless I need it but i guess the last thing was a really cool skull shaped earring with a chain and a fake industrial bar(I'm a coward so probably I'll never actually get a real one lmao)
Since I'm new I'll tag pretty much everyone who follows me @minxami @hesedielart @paulesfields @sunriseofpotato @thornywasp
I think new people coming from reddit or twitter should get to participate to tumblr tag games, so I decided to go ahead and make one.
Answer these 5 questions below and then tag 5 people who you'd like to challenge to this game
1. What are you looking forward to the most, this year? Pride, and an autumn school I'll participate to
2. If you could speak to any fictional character, who would you choose? Papyrus from undertale!
3. What's the first thing people notice about you? My cheerful attitude, ive been told
4. When is the last time you played a game? What was it? I played Just Dance this morning
5. What was the last nice thing you bought for yourself? Not groceries or such, but something that made you happy? I bought myself some shoes that I really liked!
I'm tagging @thornywasp @gambling-jester @koisori and I'm not sure who else to tag but if you've been on tumblr for less than 6 months consider yourself tagged
