#bc believe me... she'll hunt for them

[cupcakewebkinz]

hiii some vee headcanons bc boredom got to me and made me think of this stupid robot(affectionate)and maybe I just want to info dump here sorry (also feel free to correct my terrible grammar since English is not my first language and im still learning lol)

First off, I like to think that since she has some trouble understanding people emotions and can come as blunt or something, she also has problems LYING like- I imagine her saying the most stupid lie and be like" he nailed it" and be super proud of herself because she thinks her lies are super believable. of course her lies wouldn't be something imposible ! she isn't dumb! but! I kinda think her lies would be "too normal for her to be truth". Shelly and Shanon know their dumb robot too well to understand how imposible it is that she was doing nothing.

I imagine vee to be a"really smart but also really stupid" kind of person(or toon in this case)

oh and she also has a fear of a random animal for no reason(maybe squirels or birds or something)

OH HELLO!! I WASN'T EXPECTING THIS!! THIS IS SO NEAT HIIIII!!! *waves*

ALSO I too love our stupid ass robot don't worry, I affectionately call her dumb too, because she IS dumb in some departments. More like uneducated and trying too hard, but it's funnier to say she's stupid affectionately.

She actually is cannonly very blunt though because she does struggle with understanding people - in my au, she still is a bit blunt with people but Shelly's been teaching her how to be better at expressing herself. Granted this does cause Vee to make some hilarious facial expressions as she learns, but they're just happy she's trying! In cannon though, I don't think she understands emotions one bit, I genuinely don't. This is why I feel like her asking Shelly to help her move things around and not recognizing how hurt she is by how blunt she is about it happens in their official dialogue, it's not because Vee's an asshole, she just didn't catch onto Shelly's emotions! God when people say she's purely a jerk I wanna strangle them... (Not literally)

That's also like, so real though. Vee would lie horribly, but I don't think she'd lie about anything major. She'd steal a sweater from Shelly and when she's asked about it, she'd absolutely say "it's in the laundry, I don't have it" right after Shelly finishes doing said laundry and Vee doesn't realize that. Or she'd like, lie about how she got stuck somewhere. "Oh I dropped a screw back here for my mic and I tried to get it" she'd say, when she got there because she had zoomies again and accidentally got herself stuck there. They both absolutely know she's lying, but they never go further than asking once about it, as she eventually comes clean about lying and apologizes for it. She loves them, of course she'll feel guilty about lying to them! They always forgive her because her lies are about such little things that don't matter, and Vee's always grateful they do.

Vee's incredibly smart fact wise, like if you asked her about a certain event in history, she'd tell you the correct details and everything. When it comes to people though, she's absolutely stupid, she has no idea how to exist with people. Emotions don't make sense, interacting with people doesn't make sense, small talk doesn't make sense. Hell I highly doubt gender doesn't even make sense to her, she'd just be like "uh yeah I am a woman because I was told that I was" when asked about her own gender and I find that pretty funny. She'd also lie about being a boy to some people just to fuck with them, she loves seeing people debate on what she is because it's chaotic and harmless. Shelly has to teach her how to be people smart... It's a work in progress... But she'll eventually not be stupid. Maybe.

I also see her being scared of birds, because they will poop on her and she doesn't want that to happen. She has to be clean... Except when she's literally coated in dust/sand/dirt from fossil hunting with Shelly. She'd also fear any animal she tries to interact with if she has one bad interaction with them... She really likes dogs though. I feel like they'd program her to like dogs because of service dogs, it would be horrible for any toons to fear service animals after all. Oh and Pebble, I forgot he was a dog for a second, she adores Pebble too. How am I that dumb? Sleep deprivation!! Yay!!! Remember to sleep... Please.

Now if you want a random animal she'd be scared of for absolutely no reason - starfish. Just trust me she'd be so uncomfortable with starfish she'd cry. For absolutely no reason. Nobody but Vee would ever understand...

here's the rest of the oc ask meme, I just ended up filling out the rest of it for fun and I figured I wouldn't get anymore asks anyway so I'll just dump it all here. under the cut bc its long

Describe your OC physically- what do they look like? What notable features do they have, or what’s your favorite part of their design?

Neera- Neera's a pale bitch, she wears sunscreen every single day because she HATES getting sunburnt, that shit is SO annoying literally leave her alone. She has never given a shit about her hair but she doesn't cut it because she can't be bothered and it's a waste of money in opinion so she just throws it up and out of the way all the time but like sometimes she uses it as bait, like when bailey's trying to beat her ass for flaking out on payment, he always grabs her hair and that means he's not putting his hands anywhere else. Notable features would be uhhh her ahoge! i kinda use it as an indication of her emotional state in a very minor way? it wasnt intended at first but i started to notice i would draw it a certain way in her more lewd drawings so im making it a thing now As for fav part of her design, i think id say eyes because they're easy to draw and her expression usually remains the same blank/stoic one and its becoming muscle memory and i dont have to struggle with it lmao

Avis- When starting his save I went LARGE BODY immediately bc ive never played with it before and it has been LIFE CHANGING, BRO HE KICKS ASS IN GAME, so uh, he's tall and built, that's canon now, i was gonna do plain black hair but then my brain went "what if purple color theme tho" bc i like to color code my ocs so its like an dark midnight fig/eggplant color with the highlights because i liked it. anyway his eyes are like so black you can only see his pupil from like melee distance which means you are a target now, sorry there's no escaping now, and there's no reason in particular for this color except i like it on male chars a lot, i think its hot Notable features, not to be obvious points at fox tf. and ofc his demon tf, but he hides that because when it comes to ppl who can see his tf's, some of them will just look back and forth between them like, two things on head, two tails what- and he really just went, pick ONE so i wanna say demon tf generally only shows when he's using his demonic abilities or he's too horny to control it fav design-- EARS AND TAIL SORRY TO BE A FREAK BUT i wanna pet him, my fuzzy little bastard and i think he would kill me for it. it was def a struggle trying to figure out how to draw them at first but i think i figured it out, i cannot recall any other ocs i have that have animal ears WHICH IS SAD BC THEY'RE FUN but a lot of my ocs are set in universes where uhh those are impossible so i purposefully hunted for fox tf for him bc i wanted it and i thought it would make him hot

What is their stance on religion? Are they a devout believer, against the idea of gods, or somewhere in between? Do they make their practice or their opinions public, or keep it private?

Neera- Neera is an initiate on a technicality, uhh she has her virginity and she wanted to do the trial of purity to kind of… work on her pain tolerance? so she can hold off longer when she's assaulted (in game reason is to raise willpower) and also she'll take the free money once a month. she's not going to care about her grace increasing or decreasing simply because she's using the temple for her own benefit, but internally she kind of despises it as a system, considering how many times she's gotten molested by a member of the church just by literally going in there (lichen, geting the artifact from the rooms) and she's like "you fucking hypocrites" this is another instance of her NOT giving a shit about being a tattletale and goes to tell jordan and just never goes into the temple unless absolutely necessary

Avis- The temple is a JOKE to Avis, these guys preach about purity and and the innate goodness of humans and hes somewhere in the back, rolling his eyes and gagging (or fucking a cute nun who thought she could take advantage of him and instead gets railed in one of the pews) bro is so cynical and doesn't hide it. They're either snakes just like him or they're naive little bugs he has NO interest in interacting with

How do they act when they’re sick, and does it change depending on who they’re around or how sick they are?

Neera- "I don't get sick." shoves her out of the way Yes she does, see Neera likes to present the image of her having no weaknesses, but she can and does get sick. Not very often simply because she's neurotic about preventitive measures but when she DOES get sick she DISAPPEARS, she will lock herself away and just perservere until she's fine again. She does not want anyone seeing her in a weak state because then they'll take advantage of her ofc, what tf else would they do

Avis- This man… becomes even BITCHIER when he's sick if you can believe it. if he doesn't feel good it is now the problem of EVERYONE in his vicinity, note: he is not any less invulnerable, in fact he now has less of an interest of making a game out of you if you bother him, he will simply destroy you. If high love/relationship with him in general he would want to be taken care of, only in the sense of, "ofc you should take care of me, who else plays with you so well?" He really becomes the worlds most annoying man and somehow his ego is even more present in this state

Neera- Weak to both, she overheats so easily, she will go out of her way to not spend time outdoors when its hotter than 80 F (26C), because she hates sweating. She doesnt like being in the sun either. Cold is one she prefers, like her ideal room temp is low 70s (20C) cause she can just throw on a jacket or snuggle in a blanket. She fucking hates snow however, thinks its a mushy mess and forces her to wear socks when she's sleeping because her hands and feet become ICE cold easily

Avis- He has no preference towards one or the other. His tail provides him warmth is he's somwhere cold for too long, but his clothes are decent enough for that so it's usually just him shoving his hand into the fur if his hands get too cold for his liking. And when it comes to the heat, bro will take any opportunity to do away with his clothes. He's a showoff with a huge ego, and likes when people ogle him.

Share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that you think represents them well.

Neera- I don't think I have actual dialogue written for her in anything specific (yet) So unfortunately this one will have to come in the future

Avis- "I could make things really fun for you if you'd like. All you have to do is agree to be my toy. I promise to treat you well. (lie)"

What does their bed and/or desk look like? Tidy or cluttered - are they both the same, or is one neat and the other messy?

Neera- Organized clutter for both. Her desk is where she keeps almost all of her frequently used materials- books, sewing supplies, letters from her mother, school assignments, etc. The same can be said for her bed. This is her place of comfort and kind of a 'sacred' space to her as she doesn't let people in her room willingly unless she trusts them. Her bed is the ultimate form of that. She has many pillows and comfortable blankets and plush toys she sleeps against at night, (in my head this lowers her trauma hen she sleeps in her bed without interruption) and she okayed the money spent in the knowledge that it brings her continuous comfort.

Avis- Aint a damn thing besides a pillow and blanket on his bed (two pillows as an adult, ooh luxurious) gets in the way of sex, why would he do that unless its a toy, but the toys are much better place on his toy instead. His desk is mostly unused, he's got a little flip calendar on it and a deck of cards he swiped from Wren and then just has a cheap notepad he uses for school related stuff. he doesn't put effort into any of the school projects, he just does them when they interest him or he wants the reward but he won't spend longer than an hour at his desk. He keeps candlesticks on his desk and nightstand for reasons you can probably guess, but a fun initial thought with the one on his nightstand is he will fully just toss a lit candle at the gooners that pay Bailey to molest him in his sleep. It's very amusing to him.

How do they deal with pain (physical or emotional)?

Neera- In encounters, Neera is a manipulative bitch. Max school skills has her pain tolerance high and her apologizing and pleading interactions at max effectiveness and she uses that to her advantage. She's used to pain but she doesn't like it. She's learned to compartmentalize it in the moment to prevent others from taking advantage of her in a weak moment. Physical and emotional she bottles it up and swallows it. It will never get out.

Avis- This bitch is a MASSIVE SADIST, inflicting pain gets him off and he has such high willpower he can still keep kicking your ass mid nut. When that pain is inflicted on him however? He just gets annoyed, pissed off. If he was trying to have fun with it (a noncon encounter where he tried to switch positions with his assaulter? he'd get so bored and just fight them off and go about his day.) But if it was a consensual encounter and this person tries to Dom him and get all uppity? Haha, no. He will make one of two decisions, turn it into a noncon encounter where THEY are the victim and use them until he's bored, or make an example of them and beat them within an inch of their life so they never make such an amateur mistake again. Oh and emotional pain uhh.. as of this moment in time I cannot think of anything that would hurt his feelings. Not a one… (perhaps he has no feelings idk, he simply bastard)

How comfortable are they relying on other people, and what situations would change their comfort level?

Neera- She internalized her childhood before the Orphanage so much that literally nothing has changed her outlook on the world and leaving the youth ward only reinforced it actually. Her trust in others is all but completely withered, even if she cares about people like Robin, or the other orphans, she doesn't trust any of them. In an event where they had to choose to help her or save themselves, she knows they would save themselves and she doesn't blame them for it. So she doesn't "rely" on other people, she makes deals, interactions are transactional and an equal amount of give and take. Which to her, when she 'receives' help, she repays her debt in some way via monetary payment or something they want from her (within reason) and when she 'gives' it's usually like how she is with the orphans, she protects them because she wants to. It makes her feel better, strong, like she's worth something. Other people relying on her feels good, but relying on others is scary because she doesn't see herself as worthy of being cared for.

Avis- Literally why would he ever rely on someone else. He can take care of himself and even take care of others (sexually) when he wants so what's the point. He's not weak and things always go his way so he's never put in a vulnerable position where he needs to consider relying on someone else. His peers are weaker than him and adults are just as bad if not worse than he is so he wouldn't trust them as far as he could throw them. But he would absolutely blackmail them (Leighton) because that's fun.

How does your OC take up space? What do they do with their hands when they talk, or how do they sit in chairs?

Neera- She's so neutral in most scenarios that she gives off npc energy. She sits like, freakishly proper not even on purpose it's just how her body moves, it's giving robot. If she's sitting in any kind of reclined chair that's back even a little bit too far she's sitting in it at like a 90 degree angle uncomfortably, or she will pull the back up so she can sit at a 90 degree angle comfortably. The most natural you will see her is in her room, and if you got in there? Congrats you tamed the feral animal. She curls up into a ball around her cow plush when she sleeps, she looks so small and it's the most 'human' she looks in a frequent occurance. If she's having a conversation with someone her arms/hands like.. don't give at all, but she's one of those people where if you held something out to her she would hold it and continue talking like nothing happened and not acknowledge it unless you brought it up.

Avis- This man is cock and balls out in everything he does, he thinks he's so cool and so important and that everyone loves him or they're wrong. He spreads his legs pussy out to face the world on the subway and does NOT move or give space if an old person or pregnant person gets on the same car as him. If he's having a normal conversation with someone /this has never happened ever/ (ex: Niko or Brooke) he's got his hands in his pockets like he's so chill and cool, probably talking about pervert shit they is so absolutely atrocious and would be censored on any TV airing from 6am to midnight. And with someone he's like playing or flirting with his hands are so active and touchy, touching their hair, their face, leaning against the wall as he gets in close (kabedon). Personal space? No it's our space, actually no it's his space and you're just there too.

What are three moments in their life that impacted your OC the most?

Neera- The day her father died, the day her mother got admitted to the Asylum (and the day she was sent to the Orphanage), The day she left the youth ward and realized she was never going to have a chance at a comfortable life no matter how much she wanted it

Avis- (I wanna say he got his demon tf first so) When he got the full demon tf, his instincts changed and molded even more towards his extremely perverse nature that he has now, being entirely sex brained but now he feels stronger because of it. Meeting Wren; he mostly survived off of stealing semi valuable things to get by, paying off Bailey when he felt like it just to not have that particular annoyance hanging over his head, and when he met Wren, he was able to get into more… high risk high reward situations that awarded his current wealth. For the third one I want to leave it kind of open and ambiguous as a pc interaction like "YOU! Could make a huge impact on this terrible man's life!" Because in all seriousness you can. It's hard, but it's possible. If he didn't have his fox tf, it would be impossible, but because of it, he can be swayed to be in a monogamous relationship (per universe because everyone deserves to fuck this asshole if they so choose to do so) and "guided" to be gentler and more caring towards a pc that has built a relationship with him.

If they can or would drive, what would their car be like? Not gonna go super in depth on these ones bc im not a car person and i dont/cant drive Neera-She'd have something basic like an suv she did like minimal research into of being the like… safest to drive and crash survivability. She wouldn't like a small, lower to the ground car, cause they' just make her feel claustrophobic.

Avis- I'm gonna b e honest with you guys, it would be some kind of convertable or big fancy truck because 1. he likes to show off and and he would have fun parking somewhere semi public and fucking you in it (convertable-top rolled down, truck- in the truck bed)

How do they connect with the people around them? Love language, how they offer comfort, etc.

Neera- I'm gonna be real with you guys, this girl is so awkward internally, she doesn't know how to connect with people, which is why she wonders why people are interested are interested in her at all (Alex for one but she supposes it's due to her being the only non hostile interaction since he lives alone on his farm) her love language? I guess in the most general sense is acts of service? Protecting the orphans from bullies, paying for Robin's debt, making sure Yunie is hydrated and fed, etc. She's kind of a silent comforter, offering a hug if they want or wiping (licking) their tears. (Receiving, she would like physical touch the most)

Avis- At the risk of sounding like I'm repeating myself-- sex. He rarely has non sexual relationships with people he isn't forced to interact with on a recurring basis (i.e. Bailey, the teachers, etc.) So like even when he isn't actively having sex with someone to satiate his needs, his conversations revolve mostly around sex as well, talking about what or who he did recently. His love language… I'm not entirely sure? I think it's something that could vary depending on the PC he's "in a relationship" with, and he would cater to what he thinks would make them happy/appeased as an entirely calculated move.

Ok so, you don't have to do this if you're not accepting requests. But I am way too insane about IOFAB and idk why. It has been in my head since the beginning of May. I couldn't focus for weeks, that's how good it is (it didn't really help that the Kendrick v Drizzy beatdown happened).

Can we have more stuff in the IOFAB verse? Maybe something from König's POV (this guy has to be aware that he's just making her hate him even more)? Maybe life after the last escape/shooting incident can't believe the guy actually did multiple rounds with a bullet in his shoulder that's gotta hurt, pregnancy, or kids? Or maybe domestic horror fluff (if that's actually a thing)? Or something about how he managed to keep reader as his lawfully kidnapped wife (this guy definitely put trackers in her ring)? I just realized that I keep referring to reader/darling as his wife even though they ain't married yet Or maybe even an alternate timeline in which deals with what would happen if they did meet but those guys had to actually disclose that they found those survivors which would mean König would not be able to have her?

IOFAB König is so different from the other yandere Königs because he actually shows his hand right in the beginning. Like he's not just some oWo shy guy that is a yandere that goes “maybe I should keep you here with me so that you wouldn't leave me, schatz haha jk... unless 🙂”. He just straight up “You're with me now. Sooner you accept it, the better it will be for you”. He wouldn't hurt reader but he definitely wouldn't hesitate to drop kick a kitten or even his children if they would somehow aid her in her escape.

Something something he would put the world at her feet but wouldn't ever let her see her family ever again. Something something you could put the world through eternal winter and starvation but he won't ever let his goddess go, not even for 6 months. Something something he would hunt her down in their next life. Something something God never blessed him so he's taking one of His blessed angels for himself. Something something he's worshipping the ground her chained feet walk on. Ok now this is getting too long. In short, this guy warrants the “Why are you like this” microscope and “You're not a human nor a dog but a secret third thing” and you don't have to but if you want to, please please please please please can we have more IOFAB?

Zero, you're now officially the number one fans of IOFAB XD idk if I should be glad or concerned about it.

I mean, if you wanna theorize about their future and stuff, I'll gladly answer it. But for me, the story already ended here. I don't really plan to write a continuation of it. Maybe I'll write a lil bit of it in other people's POVs but that's it.

As for König's POV, I think we've covered a lot about his psychology. Like, of course he knew she hated him, but it wouldn't last. If he keeps on giving her what she needs (tolerance, space, care, etc), she'll eventually come to love him, or at least tolerate his presence. It's like a 'trust the process' situation.

I won't really write about pregnancy and kids, because it's more fun when I let the reader decide what's best for her. My actual HC is she'll only have 1 kid, and it's a boy. That's it.

There are 3 endings that I've thought about, it's either; (1) she manages to escape with the help of the maid (The Handmaiden storyline, wlw), (2) she's staying with him until the end (Göth's dream), (3) she's rescued by the third party, there's a possibility that he or the reader dies in this scenario (the realistic ending). But I won't make either of them canon, bc where's the fun in that?

As for the AUs, I haven't got the right idea for it. I think yours is good, but I honestly don't know where to start 😅

Personally, in my humblest opinion, I think shy yandere shouldn't exist in fiction. I fucking hate it, because it's very manipulative in the cheapest way. Like, they'd appear "harmless" like a weirdo, but would go 180° at any given chance. And what makes me hate them the most is that they'd go back to their shy shell when they're being cornered. They can't and won't take any responsibility for their actions. Oh, he kissed you without your consent? Well, that's your fault bc you seduced him (even if you didn't). Every time I read about a shy yandere man, I just wanna bash his head with a bat. Like, you're not fooling anyone with that attitude. Just take what you want and admit it, even if it means you have to be ruthless.

I must admit, IOFAB König does hold a "secret third thing" vibe, because I don't think he exists irl in terms of personality. He's like, if patience is taken too far, and if patience is the source of horror. He doesn't really worship her, but he views her as the rarest and the most exotic thing. If you ever read about the exotic animal keeper, or the curator of the rarest arts, then you'll understand why he behaves that way. They're very patient, and they're very possessive of their treasure. If the tiger that they keep bites their arm, they won't put it down. They'll find a way to tame it—they'll try to win its affection instead. If one particular art requires so much maintenance, and so much cost to keep it in good condition, the curator would pay for it. They won't abandon the art piece, because they know how much it's worth. That's how König views his wife.

I know it sounds like he's objectifying his wife, but sometimes humans love their things more than other humans. I'm just using that feeling as the base for IOFAB König.

Maybe I'll write about the domestic horror stuff, but I still don't know how, so no promise 🤔

[scvcnofswords]

Litriu won't fight Solas. Like, sorry, she won't do it. She'll straight up sheathe her blades and walk away for reasons that are way too much for me to get into w a dash commentary. She doesn't want the Veil crashing killing everyone but she also has seen the worst of what the Veil does to people and places(kirkwall. blackmarsh), and fully understands feeling like only you can solve something. (She will not let another Warden face Urthemiel even after agreeing for Morrigan to do the ritual. She burned Amaranthine to save Vigils Keep. She's been hunting the Architect ever since Awakening bc she DOES NOT believe she succeeded in killing him). She thinks he's lost. She won't turn her blades against him, romanced or just friends.

Harrow will flip him off and curse him out but they... feel so much sorrow for him, honestly. Fighting and tricking him were never genuinely options to them, even after being locked in the regret prison.

Regin...

She'll argue, she'll debate, she'll distract. She's killed assets and agents of his. She genuinely also sees the Veil as a problem and sees how and why he's gotten to the points hes at. She wants to find a different way. She wants to help him find a different way. I do think if push came to the absolute most dire shove she'd fight him- but it's more of those prior tactics. She won't kill him. She's not seeking his pain. Pain doesn't teach you anything. Pain doesn't help you see more clearly. She's just buying time. As for the things she's angry with him about? The things she needs him to see and address? The arguments will probably affect the weather (I am deeply serious) but she wouldn't physically assault him. Ever.

[acourtofthought]

god THANK YOU for pointing the whole Bryce and Azriel situation. Even tho you needn't to go this hard lol its basic logic!! Bryce lives in another whole universe is desperate to save her mate and brother. She's worried sick for them do you think she will forget about them to what? catch feelings for Azriel? I'm pretty sure the time she's in Velaris she'll try to save her mate and find some answers! LIKE BE SERIOUS FOR A SECOND!!!

Why sjm fandoms have an obsession about fated mates not being mates lmao idk how many times sjm wrote "MATE" in Bryce and Hunts pov the word that everyone keep saying is overused! well honey if she doesn't do that ppl won't believe they're mates! Like now, ppl are reaching with their theories that they're not mates. Same goes about Elain and Lucien so you see... SHE HAS NO OTHER CHOICE bc ppl have tendency to go all blind over that word lmao

And what is really amusing is that the arguments are so contradictory.

Bryce and Hunt have chosen one another and as a result, they ended up sharing a mating bond that is similar to what the Fae experience with their mates (scents merging, Hunt going crazy to protect his mate, SJM actually calling them mates/ true mates and all that jazz) yet some in the fandom insist they are not endgame because they believe they are not actual mates as their bond reads somewhat different than the Prythian bonds (which to me makes sense considering they are farther from magic than the ACOTAR characters and neither is 100% fae).

BUT......with Elucien, they'll say that they won't end up together because even though they are actual mates in canon with a bond that snapped and everything, they didn't CHOOSE to be together.

....................................................................................🧐🤦‍♀️

We're damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Somehow Feysands love is valid even though Rhys knew she was his mate almost immediately. No one claims his love for her is lessened because he suspected they were mates from the start.

But Elucien can't fall for one another because then, it's "just because of the bond".

But Bryce and Hunt can't end up staying together because even though they chose one another, their bond came about differently, and that means there's someone else out there she's meant to be with just because she shares a true bond with them.

This fandom is enough to give you a headache some days.

Maybe people need to realize that SJM is simply giving us a little variety in how these bonds all come about.

One is where the female was first enemies with, then friends with, then knew before the male because he thought he had already lost his mate so he was closed off from seeing who was in front of him the whole time.

One is where the male knew first and he hid it from the female until she fell in love with him.

One is where both the male and female suspected something from the get go but it was never confirmed until they chose to be together.

One is where both the male and female had it immediately snap as strangers and SJM created a storyline where neither was ready to deal with their bond so she's temporarily driven them apart.

One is where the male and female never suspected any bond, chose to be with one another after getting to know each other as friends even though they shared a mutual attraction early on, then had their mating bond begin to solidify after committing.

I don't understand why people think SJM is tossing around the word mate for her characters like it's an interchangeable accessory. If SJM wanted multiple mating bonds then why did Jesminda NOT turn out to be Lucien's mate? Why not have his first mate murdered then give him a second mate? Instead, she made it so he was waiting for the bond to snap into place but it never did because she was never actually his mate, Elain was. Why did Rowan only have a fake mating bond with Lyria? Why not allow Lyria to be his first mate, have Maeve coordinate her death only to trap him so that when his second mate came around, she'd still have control over him?

Instead, SJM has written it so these characters only have one actual mate.

No, not every bond looks the same or snaps the same but in the end, if they have an actual bond where the FMC / MMC character as a couple confirms it's a bond on page, that's the game. Bryce loves Hunt so much she feels that he is her mate and even though it came about differently it is still a bond others can scent and that causes a physical reaction in Hunt, shouldn't that be enough? Where another character confirms they are True Mates in the way fae are? Lucien and Elain confirm they feel a thread /bond between them (terminology used by both Nessian and Feysand) and where it is confirmed they both know what the other is to them. Anyone trying to denying those things as fact is someone who is being driven by disappointment because they were hoping for a different outcome rather than using logic. And yeah, it's never fun when the outcome isn't what we wanted but that still doesn't change anything. Team Jacob fans get it.

JNVEFOHBEFVQRUHBQVFUHBQCVGIU2FHBU3RGNJI3VRJNI3QRVFIJN2CRBOH2HBOV3RJN 3RV I JUST READ UR FALLOUT FIC!!! OMGOMGOMGOMG I LOVED IT!! PLS TALK TO ME MORE ABOUT FOUND FAMILY WITH THEM BC I WROTE MY OWN FIC, AND IM GONNA BE WRITING MORE ABOUT THEM AND I NEED TO TALK ABOUT THEM!! sorry its in all caps, im really excited

NEVER apologize for all caps and excitement!!!! in this house we lose our minds over found family dynamics TOGETHER and we are NOT calm about it lmao

under the read more because spoilers and also i got long winded (shocker)

ugh but literally. i need to do a rewatch because fallout is definitely one of those "watch once to get your brain blasted, watch a second time to catch all the little hints you missed the first time around" kind of shows, and also i just. NEED to watch this again with the full knowledge that cooper's been hunting down his family this whole time. yeah we knew cooper was a dad from the beginning but for us, at first, the logical assumption is that his wife and daughter must be long gone by now! it's been 219 years! it's not until the last episode or two that we start realizing that a lot of people from Before are still kicking around, and that cooper KNOWS that, and that the one thing keeping him going for longer than anyone else is the fact that he wants to see his wife and daughter again. the angst potential of this has me foaming at the mouth, by the way, and that's without even considering lucy yet

like, what's his plan? find janey and barb and... pick up where they left off? maybe two centuries of nuclear fallout will patch up his relationship with his ex-wife? how does he even know they weren't both unfrozen and lived their whole lives without him and died already? (i'll argue that he has not even considered that possibility, and will not, because that'll break him.) and say he does find them, and they're alive. maybe they haven't even been unfrozen yet and he can be the one to wake them up. ideal scenario, right? but will they even recognize him anymore? not just by his physical appearance, either! he is not the same person he was before the bombs fell, not by a longshot! janey's dad wasn't a ruthless mercenary bounty hunter who does what he has to do to survive and makes jerky out of human meat and sells random women to organ harvesters to get drugs! he was a guy who loved his dog and loved his family and who was so morally upright that he didn't even want to fake shoot a guy in a movie, because he believes that's not who his character is. and don't even get me STARTED on the fact that The Ghoul is a character to begin with, it's an act, because he's an actor who fell into this role because i guess it was easiest to survive that way, which means that at heart The Ghoul is also not someone who should be shooting guys. the kindheartedness is there under about 219 years of irradiated, decaying skin. but it's there

and then we get lucy, who's very deliberately written as his echo, a kindhearted morally upright person who doesn't want to let the wasteland change her, and i'll bet MONEY that as the series progresses cooper's gonna have to watch as it really doesn't change her. sure, she'll bite a guy's finger off in self defense, and yeah, she'll mercy kill a ghoul that's way past saving. but through it all she's going to try so hard to do the right thing, every single time, and i'm TELLING you, it's not so much that cooper's gonna get dragged back kicking and screaming into being a good person again, but it's more like he's gonna just start being better. it'll be kickstarted by lucy's influence and the fact that he cannot suppress the dad instincts to save his life, but the reason it'll really stick is because that's his natural setting! whether he wants to admit it or not!

anyway. uh. i ranted about this more than i meant to LOL but please always feel free to shout at me about grumpy morally gray old men allowing fatherhood to gently tug them closer and closer to the neutral good square on a dnd alignment chart. gets me every time

Pls give us ur thoughts on kazquiet!

See, I don't know much about Quiet (...nor most of gz/mgsv lore anyway) just yet, so it's mostly me guessing and pretending

So, to begin with, I think if not for the context, Kaz would've been more than open about her joining them; she already checks all the boxes by being good-looking, but it just so happens that she's also a remarkable soldier

I find her features really adorable, meaning I choose to believe he would too

My guess would be their favorite feature is each other's lips. They're really soft.

I haven't seen a proper comparative, but it seems she's a bit taller than him given that she's almost as tall as Venom? I think Kaz would be the type to be more into women shorter than him (doesn't even need to be a big difference, just that they're shorter), so it'd catch him a bit off-guard to feel interested in her despite that

Afaik she communicates solely on hand gestures, so if they had modern day phones, she'd only use emojis. Which ones, you ask? These: 😺😼😽😾💯💢💥💬👁️‍🗨️🗨️🗯️💭💤🫥+all the hand/s emojis. Furthermore, Kaz has to hear that awful robotic voice describe them to him (the text-to-speech thing).

She'd share all of her music discoveries with him, the two of them sitting next to each other in a somewhat secluded place, leaning their heads on each other... Nobody bothers them during this time because everyone already fears Kaz's average angry mood and they are Not risking their lives to interrupt him nor his Absolutely Lethal & Avid Music Enjoyer Girlfriend

Kaz is a noise/industrial/ambient type of music enjoyer to me; since I know absolutely nothing about Quiet's music taste, I'm assuming it's similar to Venom's. I don't know much about his either LOL but based on the few songs I remember hearing on videos, I'd guess it's kind of soft rock. Thus, Kaz would try to reciprocate her wish to share music but would 100% fail at it because his tastes are just too niche. Some ambient song perhaps, the rest is pure uncomprehensible noise to her

Quiet loves chocolate, the milk chocolate type with nuts or similar. He'll sometimes bring her a bar to cheer her up. He'll also get some Pocky box/es to play with when he's in a particularly good mood

She's just so silly to me, she'll do so many adorable things unawaredly; Kaz is mad because he knows she's not doing it on purpose and he keeps finding himself entranced by her

She does purposely steal his beret though, she likes to annoy him a little bit and also likes to wear it herself

I find her to be like a (cropped) Doberman, as in - misunderstood, has intimidating look, actually very loving and goofy. This being said, i just imagined her going on a mission and coming back with a rabbit or some other animal she specifically hunt for him to eat. She's very happy about it. She looks scary to the rest (except Venom bc he likes her and Ocelot bc he's deranged).

Kazquiet is pretty much non-sexual to me, but I'm under the impression that Kaz would still manage to do things in a way that appears suggestive to others (like licking ice-cream and showing off his "hidden" abilities) (I guess it's just the way he is) (she's looking away)

Quiet definitely teases him though, to a certain extent (like breaking the pocky stick right before they are about to kiss)

Kaz braids her hair, she holds her strands of hair for him

They both use DD to bring stuff to each other if they're busy on base (dw he gets lots of treats and pets for it)

Quiet will sometimes invisibilize, sneak into his room and (lovingly) look at him sleep for a bit, maybe tuck him and give him a little kiss on the forehead or the tip of his nose or on the lips, depends on her mood

They're slow kissers. They're kissing slowly, gently, and caressing each other.

1, 4 and 5 for the oc asks?

1. On a scale of “is occasionally forced to bathe” to “Instagram model with sponsors to hoe for” how involved is your OC’s Skincare routine?

involved as in she takes a great deal in looking after her appearance but not finicky to the point that she's extra strict with the ingredients going on her face or the kind of diet she has so she can look better. her appearance is definitely one of the things she takes great pride on, so maintenance is def something she does as part of her nightly routine -and shri'iia is def a creature of habit so she has her own skincare routine that she does, then as the creams are settling in her face she's gonna polish her armour, her weapon, prepare her poisons, etc. she likes to keep herself busy!

4. What’s your OC’s response to being asked for money by a homeless person?

probably laugh 😭 listen. shri'iia is NOT the kindest nor the most generous, and she really does not believe in charity. she def still has that drow victim blaming mindset and she believes more if someone gets up and helps themselves rather than beg for it, so in a chance that someone asks for her coins, she would just laugh at them and say no. the only time she'll be charitable is when it comes to something regarding her oath - so if someone is in need to break away from their master - THAT'S when she will come running, free of charge, but in general, she really won't help.

5. Does your OC get lost easily? What do they do when they do get lost?

frequently, especially in the surface world where she is still so very unfamiliar with the terrains and landscape both in cities and in the wild. i imagine she navigates through the underdark much more comfortably since the dark is her home and she is more comfortable with seeing things with her darkvision rather than seeing them in the light. if she is lost, she will try to act like she isn't while trying to figure out how to navigate herself. shri'iia will try to avoid asking for directions especially if she's in some small town since she's not sure how they'll react to seeing a drow in the surface, and imagine her paranoia is flaring and she's trying her best to calm her nerves. like in the first 30 mins she'll probably be fine but as the longer it goes, that's when she'll start getting bewildered and anxious and she feels like she's gonna get hunted for sport and everyone will be out to kill her but she's FINE btw she's not gonna ask for your help...!! she can work this out.......!!

also a hag romance thought i really do like the idea that he just ends up holding her hand when they visited baldur's gate for the first time (in my head it's more crowded than what it is in game lmfao) bc she was just standing there like 🧍‼️ looking very bewildered and overwhelmed. not it's become a thing that they do where he'll just hold her hand if they're in some crowded space so she doesn't get lost.

oc questions that helped me with characterization

[sanctifiedandfree]

yj s3 finale thoughts

ignoring melissa bc shes like a non-character the only adult i didnt really care about was van.... everybody else was like soooo compelling but it really felt to me like the best scene we got from her was on the jet at the end & thats mostly bc teen van was there & shes like. actually interesting

lottie is everything to me but i hate callie for killing her, im honestly sick of shaunas fam the one thing that made them fun to have on the show was being ride or die for shauna in spite of everything she did

back to lottie tho i love the time/dream stuff going on with her and i fully believe she walked over the pit. im a wilderness truther idc what anyone says. the way she desperately wanted to hunt a teammate apparently was honestly shocking to me and the way her dying vision was the sleepwalking dream she had immediately before it happened!!!!!! wtf!!!!! i just love her so much

also love the potential for wanting to hunt so badly bc she wanted to be the one chosen. she lit up at the draw and totally fell flat when she wasnt picked. then when callie pushed her down the stairs she lit up again. & i do love this for her like i loveeeeee her fascination with It et al & figuring out the mystery of it all/getting to the root of what happened to them & why its still haunting them both psychologically but also possibly literally. but i also know how her actress felt about being killed off so maybe its a cop out on the writers part. but im not getting into all that.

tai is rly good i liked how (esp w the pilot rewatch) it literally did come full circle with her inadvertently causing harm to someone she didnt intend to.... ep 1 with that girls leg & now with mari. i also liked how she ate vans heart. like both her and shauna are fully embracing all sides of themselves at the end of the season it seems but i hope they end up back on the same side bc theyre so similar in that regard and i like the girls banded together. like yes it was shaunas idea to go to alexs house which made them run into melissa but misty is the one that stopped them and had them pick her up on the way. and AGAIN ultimately melissa is the one that killed her. but tai trying to cope with vans murder and kind of falling back into the orbit of It is so good

im glad misty is standing up to shauna now she desperately needed to. and im glad she got callie to confess. normally im a misty stan but i do not feel theres much for me to say rn bc i want the band back together etc etc

shauna im not sure how im feeling bc it was so satisfying seeing the scene of her reading the letter and finally crying remembering the people she recently killed or lost, but the way they wrote everyone else not enjoying the hunt at all and its like literally just shauna and lottie (for diff reasons but yk) is annoying. like obvs tai just ate a heart as an adult she probably had some sort of thrill (/neutral) in it and she didnt want to go home either. misty did want to go home but doesnt seem to have any qualms whatsoever about taking part in the "feast"

i think shauna is like in this gray zone of enjoying power and kind of thriving despite (or maybe partially because of) everyones apparent hatred of her. bc she remembers it sooo fondly but also she is obvs not having the best time when we see it actually happening, shes paranoid and alone and knows that nobody is really standing with her. so idk if i want the truth to be that everyone did enjoy it to some degree or if i want her to realize that it was mostly her & she just likes being hated as long as it means people are seeing and accepting all of her and she doesnt have to hide those parts of herself. i feel like shes so mean and confrontational bc she cant let herself truly be vulnerable or she'll totally fall apart. or maybe im projecting lol but i feel her in that regard

mari. UGHHHHHH MARIIIIIIII MY GIRLLLLLL i loved her so much. i was so so fond of her by the end. pit girl shouldve been hannah shes a poser. also the whole pilot scene felt so much worse actually knowing who it is she did NOT deserve all that. mari was so funny and such a teen and she feels real in a way that like.... nat for example doesnt. mari was unabashedly herself and didnt tone down her personality at all for anyone. rip queen

akilah initially helping lottie so they could hunt (which. wow. the dedication to lottie/appeasing the wilderness in that moment knowing HOW much she cared abt the animals, and she brought it up herself) but then like coming to a full realization that the consequence will be maris death & almost killing lottie in retaliation was amazing i want to see more of akilah next season in the aftermath of all this. like she is so in love with Life and to come that close to killing someone shows the impact everything is having on her

i was like who am i forgetting oh yeah nat. nat is the opposite of van for me i dont find teen her interesting at ALL i literally only like her as an adult and shes gone now so :/ like u know shes kind of a boring character when coach is like youre not like these other girls you dont belong here. okay. umm youre in the wilderness and everyone is kinda losing it theres absolutely no way you havent done anything questionable but shes written like an angel as a teen and her adult story is soooooo much better in comparison. it always felt like teen nat was channeling the CONCEPTS of justice and reason (aka hollow, no personality) & in a way that was like... shes one of the guys, & the guys (for the most part) have not really partaken or believed in anything the rest of the girls are doing, so nat is gonna be the Good One, the incorruptible girl & that is so fundamentally boring to me. not to hate ik a ton of ppl like her but i just dont get it. thats_my_opinion.wav

the whole thing w travis talking ab shauna & jackie felt out of left field lol but maybe that was just me. cool that its kinda confirmed bc the first few episodes were SO clearly showing that shauna was in love w her but its kinda small in light of the rest of the episode imo

& finally i love that jackie whispering to shauna in a half-sleep state was the signal for the first snow. amazing beautiful poetic FULL circle

[milfbrainrot]

oh we're SO. so fucking back

shauna's thing about how the only way to survive is to be the only one left vs. tai saying if shauna goes unstopped she'll be the last one left.

also mel on top of shauna as teens tryin to kill her versus shauna on top of mel as adults

lesbians cannibalizing their gfs from shauna eating jackie's ear to shauna eating melissa's arm to tai eating van's organ. callie should've eaten some of lottie or saved her hair.

SLUMBER PARTY MAKEOUTS??????????????????????? rational explanation: travis was reading one of those porn mags during the shaunajackie breakup fight. supernatural explanation: yeah sure i'll drink to that.

lolol the letter abt encouraging shauna to forgive herself is so funny. there's this trend of the survivors trying to take precautions or do good but it just sets shauna off because it reminds her of the thrills she misses. tai sending jessica out to investigate people? well now shauna killed adam. melissa sending the tape to get shauna to forgive herself (allegedly)(i don't know if i believe that)? WELL A LOT MORE PEOPLE ARE DEAD NOW BABE. in some way misty did the same - solving lottie's murder led to callie and jeff leaving which led to shauna remembering her identity when not bogged down by wife or mother.

the idea of them all forgetting things kind of helped explain discrepancies in the adult timeline. tai forgetting things because of her alt persona, only remembering when she partook in cannibalism herself consciously? explains why she did trust shauna so much in the beginning. nat probably forgot a lot bc of drugs and alcohol, and had to ask the others what they actually remembered. i think van remembered enough which helps bc she came in later and only for tai - she was horrified at seeing lottie again. she feels the weight of the responsibilities tai suppressed, being responsible for mari's death and so on. shauna had to succumb to a normal boring life tm and buried the thrills because nothing could ever compare. lottie's mental illness does a lot of heavy lifting probably but she wants to remember when she's unmedicated. misty is... well... misty lol. part of me thinks she wants those days back, but part of me also knows she helped nat escape to rescue them. she has a loyalty to protect her traumabond family tm and she was most loyal to nat, who was in direct opposition to shauna, so... we'll see what happens i guess. i just wonder - did they forget bc they were having fun or did shauna forget bc she was having fun lmfao. i think it's partly that for melissa at least.

also wtf is all the reality bullshit

walter... was there. i think. i still don't get his whole deal. i think misty took a tag off caligula's cage that had been from walter so ig they're done bc of how he treated the lottie investigation so disrespectfully and now she doesn't need him because she's Important to her Friends again. what is his fucking deal tho lol.

my gasp and grin when mari fell in the pit. GOD WE'RE SO FUCKING BACK!!!!!!!

hannah was at shauna's side at the start when they were doing those hut searches? really really interesting dynamic potential there. i am kind of disappointed she helped nat escape - i rly wanted to believe she was a freak here for the once in a lifetime chance to study the micro civilization they started. i think she... maybe just didn't know they actively killed people to cannibalize, and maybe thought it was more "well we'll cannibalize if this guy dies" or "kill to survive" without realizing an actual hunt to cannibalize was on the horizon.

shauna's antler queen garb gave her a joan of arc look before the headdress came on. i love the hair details - she first found hannah's hair on a branch and now she's actively collecting more. she left melissa to go hunt hannah and that was her prize. now mari's dead and this is the prize. i'm glad the feud btwn her and mari paid off so well with when she interfered in the draw. def gonna miss mari tho and im sad that social media post abt her coming back to sell mlm stuff wasn't true jl;sdfljslkdfj.

i guess robin and hannah and gen were red herrings for pit girl. i hope they have another hunt before they get rescued. hannah and a few others clearly don't fucking survive so.

THE BOX. HOLY SHIT.

wasn't there an actress who may have been adult akilah? still not sure what happened there

what happened to the FUCKING BONUS EPISODE I STILL WANT THE BONUS EPISODE

RECONTEXTUALIZATION OF MISTY'S CRACKED GLASSES SMILE ! very different from the actual pilot pit girl scene but same vibes. i wanna do a frame by frame for a bit.

god im glad pit girl paid off. i think the fandom did overanalyze it a lot at first but also the backlash to us overanalyzing it was stupid. most of the hype around it WAS before season 2, so we had rly slim options for who pit girl could be and less idea about who survived to adulthood. i think either way people got annoying about it but i was riding such a high watching it unfold and realizing this is what we saw at first.

what happened with akilah in the cave with lottie i actually don't. remember. like. why did she set up the animal deaths and stuff im rly unclear on all her stuff rn bc that ep brainblasted me so bad.

man idek what else just. no callie nudes on lottie's phone but close efuckingnough. i still hate that lottie died but this was the best fucking way it could've gone holy fuck. shauna and callie 🤝 beating the fuck out of lottie.

why did tai visit lottie that day tho

oughusdhfgljkskjdfhkjshdfkjlhjkfhnvkjlshkjldf god im just so glad the show is good again i hope it gets renewed now . kind of an okay place to end off if they don't i guess. lots of issues i still have with it but OVERALLLLLL we're so back. xo.

[lesblizzard-ultradyke]

okay I literally had to tear apart FOUR boxes trying to hunt down my copy of NTN, because for some reason it wasn't with the other books and it was all the way at the bottom under stuffed animals 😭 but the epilogue. forgive me I don't know what parts you're confused by, so sorry if I explain smth you did already understand

so, the main story ends with nona leaving harrow's body.

when the rock that had been made meat awoke in a body: nona awoke in the Body. Nona is Alecto, AKA the soul of the Earth that John ripped free and put in a body.

Once in the body, she rips the chains off, breaking them and her own bones in the process. "The child offering violence to her" was Ianthe, I'm pretty sure, trying to kill Alecto, but Harrow throws herself on the altar and says she'll kill Ianthe if Ianthe hurts Alecto.

I BELIEVE the living children are all the main characters, and the dead children the souls in the river? The ones they're fighting? I need to reread to remember what was going on just BEFORE the epilogue, but that part's kinda ambiguous imo. She calls out to Pyrrha, who doesn't hear her (not sure if that's a literal "it was too loud to hear her" or smth more spiritual)

Alecto goes to kill Harrow, but Alecto remembered her (remembered being her), and doesn't. Harrow proclaims her love. Alecto kisses her, aggressively, with teeth, because that's what she's supposed to do ("Why are you not appeased? This is how meat loves meat"), but Alecto isn't human. From Harrow's blood in her mouth, Alecto recognizes her as a descendant of Anastasia.

Alecto offers her service to Harrow. She "placed the child's hand upon the blade, so that it received also the red blood of the child," so she cuts Harrow's hand open on her sword. I believe this is bc of Harrow's relation to Anastasia, who we don't know much about yet. Alecto made some sort of vow to Anastasia, and it transferred to Harrow.

Alecto takes Harrow after she faints, and goes to John, and stabs John through the heart. At which point he wakes up and greets her.

That's my interpretation, anyways! There may be other stuff I missed, but also I think to some degree we're SUPPOSED to be confused until the next book. Idk if any of that is helpful 😅

oh nonnie ily thank you for explaining things sorry I forgot about you for a whole day... I think I do understand the stuff better now! I thought that the dead children were the souls that harrow cannibalized 🤔 either way, I wonder if Gideon is counted as a living child or as a dead child.

Hey, how are you? I hope you're doing well :D Quick question, could I ask for some Mime Bomb x Reader or some Chase Devineaux x Reader? Either one would be great to have some Headcannons too :) I hope you have a great day/night!

|Chase Devineaux X Reader|

a/n: tbh i haven't written for mr. 'to hunt' in a while, i still gotta redo all my older works lol working on the mb hcs rn!

pairing: chase devineaux x reader

post type: headcannons

requested: yes

word count: 0.7k

warnings: mentions of acts of violence, slight ptsd mention, food, mmm french agent, lovey dovey, pls don't fail me mobile tumblr

one of his greatest worries in your relationship is something happening to you. he knows his line of work is dangerous, so he will keep his distance from you in the beginning to protect you. chase knows from first-hand experience how terrifying both vile and acme can be, so he will do what he can to prevent you from getting hurt.

however, he physically cannot stay away from you. you're the sigh of relief he’s always needed in his life. he considers it a privilege to be yours, completely and entirely belonging to you. he’s lucky you wanted to even go to that first date with him, let alone staying by his side.

chase struggles with self-esteem issues more than he’ll let on. once you know what to look for, it's easy to notice. he’ll skip meals and showers to focus on his work. he can't be so close yet so far from figuring out what everything means.

it’s a slow progression for him to get into this mindspace, but it's no trouble for you to take him out of it. hold his hand and gently move him to the table for dinner, sit him down and shave his face for him (maybe even shower with him or bathe him yourself, this doesn't even need to be sexual!), hold him close and play with his hair, the frenchman loves to be pampered but won't admit it.

the longer your relationship lasts, the healthier he’ll become. he wants the best for you, hence he'll be the best.

holding him in the depth of night is a loved activity between you both. your head rested on his chest, the hair tickling your face ever so softly. you'll both whisper to each other about any and everything. he tends to tell you about his days since they're filled with humor (and he loves hearing you laugh). his accent is the thickest at this time unless you both usually speak french to one another.

“and then, i 'ad to buy a new coat. i still think that the mime is up to something..”

for the sake of his sanity and for your safety, try your best not to get involved with carmen sandiego. (i'm so lying DO IT it's good story)

if you do find yourself in this situation, expect her to give you a few friendly quips of her own. nothing malicious, don't worry! (maybe a little flirty at first bc she's Like That but once you shut it down she'll respect that.)

your lover doesn't like how much he has to travel for work. all of these gorgeous sights but the most beautiful is waiting for him to come home :(

even if he wanted to bring you along, (he doesn't for the sake of your health and that is the Only Reason) acme isn't fond of the idea of someone who doesn't work for them getting into trouble and them having to clean up the mess. especially since they’d be with Mr. Accident-Prone.

however, if you do work for acme, expect chase to request being your partner to every mission.

“Agent Zari has already been selected to accompany them, Devineaux.”

“....Yes, but-”

the moments where he can take a deep breath and let his walls come down are few and far inbetween, but in those moments he's viscously flirty.

he’ll go all out on his compliments that leave you flustered. he's very touchy!

he can give it all until he's given his soul too, but once he receives anything he's a mess. caress the side of his face, call him handsome, run your hands over the nape of his neck. he's gone, melted into a puddle on the floor.

he smells good. you tell him every now and then, he'll believe you but not entirely. he knows that he doesn't smell bad but he doesn't realize just how much peace he brings when his hugs engulf you. he will after some time though.

he can't cook if his life depended on it but he's an amazing baker. expect treats often! he’ll gift you the sweets for any reason, as well. (because ‘why not’ also counts as a reason)

mmmm strong hands mmm that hold you gently mmmmmmm

he wants a future with you. what you want that to contain is up to you, but the thought of waking up everyday to your face makes him feel giddy.

chase devineaux is a flawed man, but there isn't anything he can't do by your side.

I have decided to do Arthurs route since it's been about 2 years

And everyday I'm going to give you my thoughts

Chapter 1

I hate this man

*end post*

I was gonna joke and just post that everyday, but I'm going to actually talk about it

This is the only time MC has ever paid attention to something and has been right about it. This is more praise on MC. But don't worry, it's short-lived.

"don't be silly, you're still alive" I do love that they point this out. It doesn't go any farther with it, probably bc this route was the 4th released route and so they don't expect the reader to think too much yet. But I like to think vampire Arthur is fucking around with Human Arthur. Publishing things without using a different name and such. Still talks to Harry Houdini and some of his writer friends.

CANON THAT THIS BITCH GOES BATSHIT CRAZY OVER FAIRIES. He's convinced Jean that they are real and they are going fairy hunting. Theo watches from a window in the mansion and is like "wtf is he doing"

Anyway. We get to the long awaited part of Arthur desperately trying to convince us they are all vampires. WHY DOESNT THIS BITCH TAKE THE HINT THAT I DONT BELIEVE YOU. LETS NOT TALK ABOUT THIS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. And like I said, hes the 4th route to come out, so Sebastian is still very Butler-y and won't tell Arthur to stop and drop it. AND HE LEAVES MC ALONE. In later routes Sebastian has more personality and probably wouldn't do that. In later routes Sebastian has no issue telling a resident no.

I do like that MC acknowledges that leaving the mansion at that moment is a horrible idea and that she'll just stay in her room for now. But Arthur thinks she's going to leave and grabs her and starts licking her. And Mc was too stunned to...do anything really. I know Arthur is a flirt ...BUT I GET RAPY VIBES OKAY. YOU SCARED HER SHITLESS AND YOU KNOW THIS AND NOW YOU'RE TRYING TO MAKE A MOVE.

Also why does he have so much blood on his collar. It's not like his neck was bitten. How did you bite someone and get blood on your neck???? Sloppy if you ask me. Now Sebastian has to get that out you twat.

I will preface the next month with this: Arthur is hot. He's flirty and fun. By the end of his route how can you not have feelings for him? His route is fairly romantic and sensual. I just have a hard time believing a man like him, in less than a month could fall in love with someone enough to be loyal to them. Because through this month he has flings, threesomes even. It's not like he's even playing with the thought of liking her. It's sudden, and then out of nowhere he is loyal? Mc must be REAL good in bed to keep a manwhore like that. BUT THAT BEING SAID: I KNOW IN SOME CHAPTERS I WILL SWOON FOR THIS MAN. I STILL FUCKING HATE HIM.

Apparently I have Thoughts that will not be contained despite how irrelevant/overstated they are lol

Even if caryl still got the spinoff that we were promised, I'd STILL be irritated that negan and Maggie got a spinoff. I really and truly cannot believe that Negan isn't dead yet. I know they're pushing the whole "Maggie is just as bad as negan!" Thing but like. She's not. Even when negans instawife dies while pregnant, Maggie's not as bad as negan. Even if Maggie murders negan's pregnant instawife herself - which theres no way she'll do - she's not as bad as negan.

The fact of the matter is that Gimple went too fuckin far with Negan. I get that men are basically incapable of writing villains unless they're rapists (Shane tried to rape Lori, the Governor sexually assaulted Maggie, the Claimers tried to rape Carl, the original Terminus baddies raped all the women, and granted Gareth iirc managed NOT to be a rapist but then again he was only alive for like 3 episodes so there just wasn't enough time for it, and then we have Negan and all his higher up savior buddies with their cognitive dissonance) but like. Come on. When you do that - ESPECIALLY to the level that negan did - there's just... no redemption possible.

And there's no "oo look how our protagonists are just as bad as the villains!" Bc like remind me, did Rick force Rosita to become his wife in exchange for keeping Abe alive? Did Rick force Maggie to marry him in exchange for seeing the Hilltop OBGYN? Did Rick iron Daryl's face when Daryl left the prison with Merle? Did Rick reward Tyreese for keeping Judith alive with guaranteed sex from any woman Tyreese wanted? Hm. Nope.

And so this goes double for Maggie. She's ruthless bc she's protecting what's left of her family. Family, by the way, that NEGAN brutally tortured and murdered in front of her. Yeah, the whole reapers thing was fuckin weird and bizarre and flimsy - did we ever find out WHY they were hunting Maggie? - but the fact of the matter is that she killed them bc she was protecting her family. Not gleefully. Just shot. The end.

Ugh. Just ugh.

The Guest Ghostbusters AU, you say? I am intrigued. Tell me more, don't be shy, go on, write that fic!

asfghjkldi i can't believe u read my tags lol (for anyone who's interested, i think anon is referring to this reblog)

okay, so, i'm absolutely certain that mb 3 years after canon, Gil Young and Choi Yoon will move in with Hwa Pyung. well, Choi Yoon basically moved in about a year ago but they like to pretend he didn't.

anyway, after finding out that Hwa Pyung is alive, Gil Young and Choi Yoon bulldoze their way back into his life. they visit him every weekend and, when they can't be there physically, they video call/facetime and such. it's also the reason why Choi Yoon finally FINALLY gets a smartphone. well, Gil Young gets that phone for him and tells him to shove it, she's not taking it back, it's a gift. fck that vow of poverty or whatever, he can have the phone bcs he's not the one who bought it.

anyway, one day, in the middle of lunch or whatever, Gil Young was called back to Sangyong for an emergency case or sth so she had to leave asap. Choi Yoon is willing to go back with her but she said she'll come back to pick him up later in the evening. except she couldn't bcs it's a murder case or sth so Choi Yoon has to take a taxi back to Sangyong. except there's no taxi bcs Hwa Pyung lives in the middle of nowhere and it's late af so Choi Yoon decides to just stay the night.

they go on a 5am walk the next morning and Choi Yoon drops by the local church with an old Father. they talk and pray while Hwa Pyung snoops around the church. and then a couple of weeks later, Choi Yoon transfers to the local church in Hwa Pyung's area. he loads all his stuff into Gil Young's trunk one weekend and Gil Young is like ??? and Choi Yoon is just *shrug* and Hwa Pyung is just 'aight, might as well'

the local Father is more than thrilled to have Choi Yoon around and finally gets to retired. Hwa Pyung fishes and visits the church and goes into the confession booth just so he can talk to Choi Yoon.

Choi Yoon lives in the on-site housing (im sorry but idk what the place that priests live in near the churches are called, im not christian. im barely a buddhist lol) anyway, he lives there and Gil Young picks him up on her way to Hwa Pyung's house every weekend.

but, one weekend, after a particularly difficult case, Gil Young is wasted and can't drive back so she crashes at Hwa Pyung's and Choi Yoon's like 'well, there goes my ride' when he can totally walk back to the church. Gil Young stays the night every weekend after that.

and then she starts going there after work on Friday and leave every Monday morning at ungodly hours to get back to the station in time.

and then, one day, Gil Young just... shows up with a fckn ton of luggage with her and claims Hwa Pyung's room as her own ??? and Hwa Pyung is just *sigh*

she transfers to the local police station and eventually retires from active duty after an incident that left her very sick/injured. she becomes a private investigator and goes fish with Hwa Pyung and somehow gets roped into demon hunting with Hwa Pyung and Choi Yoon absolutely loses his shit bcs two supernatural-blind people hunting demons on their own ??? they cant exorcise them what are they thinking ??? cue Choi Yoon internal anxiety going at full force

anyway, further further into the future, Choi Yoon stops caring about his vow of celibacy and officially enters a relationship with Hwa Pyung (bcs im willing to jump hoops for Choi Yoon to throw his vow of celibacy out the windows but unwilling to make Choi Yoon stop being a priest bcs Choi Yoon being a priest means Choi Yoon will be able to save his loved ones in the future + he helped save Hwa Pyung's life (yea i think he managed to exorcise Park Il Do at that beach somehow)). i say officially bcs let's be real, they've been low-key dating since forever, they're just both dumbasses.

anyway, Gil Young be coming back from filing their taxes to see Hwa Pyung bending Choi Yoon over the kitchen counter and she's so pissed but fond of them she throws her shoes at them before leaving and go out to have a smoke in the front porch. and yes she hears them fckn but she's like *smokes* *taps feet* *checks watch* "urgh they're taking so long this time tsk" *rolls eyes* and yes, this time, this isn't the first time she hears/sees them have sexy time

they go on demon hunting adventures together and get thrown in jail every other week and Gil Young phones detective Koh who spends 30mn shouting into his phone but always shows up to bail them out. he also brings them tofu. and his wife's homecook meal bcs he knows they haven't eat shit since their arrest and god knows they need to eat bcs the three of them are more or less dirt poor.

but look, they be struggling to get by and always running head first into danger and complaining about the lack of air-conditioning in the summer and their hot water running out in the winter but u know what, they're happy.

they're happy and that's all that matter.

Hwa Pyung, Gil Young, and Choi Yoon are so incredibly happy and that's all that matter.
