You know when your mother has clearly been making up some kind of conversation you've supposedly been having in her head that definitely never happened??? She just send me this crazy text out of nowhere that was super defensive and apologetic about stuff I never even said. Like. Hello??? Everything is fine. You didn't need to send an entire paragraph randomly addressing complaints I literally never voiced. Why are you freaking out about this. Chill.

PLEASEEEEEEEE MAKE THAT POST ABOUT GUSHING/TALKING ABOUT HECTOR I NEED IT REAL BAD. I HAVENT PLAYED THE DEMO YET WHAT DO YOU MEAN YB THE POSITION OF THE VENTS. OTIS. YOU CANT SAY THAT THEN NTO ELABORATE /lh
OH THANK GOD SOMEBODY'S FINALLY GIVEN ME AN EXCUSE OKAY-
AHEM you get another thesis. Smiles evilly. Spoilers ahead for the demo, obviously <3 ALSO NSFW, because... well it's kinda unavoidable w/ Hector, he's a bit of a freak KSJADKJ
EHEHEHEEEE OKAY I'M GONNA START W/ THE VENTS FIRST BC I FEEL LIKE THATS REALLY FUN, AND THEN SOME EXTRA RAMBLES AT THE END.
*pulls out a comedically long ruler* I have so far identified seven vents in the entire house, not limited to :
Tumblr media
Across from your desk, where he can blink sweetly at you while you work,
Tumblr media
Dining room - surprisingly none in the kitchen! Perhaps one of the few Big Rooms (tm) where there is not a vent,
Tumblr media
Living room, where he cannot watch TV bc of the angle, but he CAN watch YOU watch TV AKSDFJAKSF,
Tumblr media
Downstairs bathroom,
Tumblr media
UPSTAIRS bathroom,
Tumblr media
Home gym, placed sort-of-opposite the treadmill,
Tumblr media
And of course, the bedroom, in a simply precarious position KJASDKASJDA
I will let you digest and process this as you will 🫡 godspeed soldier(s), this absolutely fucked me up when I first realized it. This little freak is almost inescapable, except for the kitchen and smaller rooms (closets, laundry room).
OKIE NOW I GET TO YELL SOME MORE ABOUT SOME OTHER STUFFS >:) EHEHE.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
oughhhwobuoubuogurgurb <- dying. he feels so bad about accidentally making you feel bad w/ his weirdo reaction
This moment is just so sweet to me. He keeps going after, too, talking about how he will "Make up for that, (...) I will do so much for you, as I always have" EEEEEE <3333 he's a freak but he's a SWEET freak and that's my favourite flavour of freak
ALSO! Note his vent's temperature changing depending on his mood! Ice-y for angry or upset, and steam (the love hearts!!) for when he's happy/in-love! AAAAAA!!!
Tumblr media
I need to hit him with a car. What do you mean when you say those words you say. He truly goes on like this for a Hot Minute, about how he wants you to control him AND wants you to understand how much that means to him. Wh.
It's just really fun bc I feel like usually this Genre (tm) of character is more dom-leaning, it's so cute + funny to have one who's a massive sub!
It's also crazy that this conversation happens on the SECOND DAY!!!!! HE'S GOING WHOLE-HOG 2 DAYS IN!!!!
So funny to think about him during the evening of day one, pacing (crawling???) through the vents, being like 'okay. okay. alright. Hector, you're gonna be So Normal with them tomorrow' only to pull out THIS!!!! AAASKDJFSKAFJDKSJFSD
Tumblr media
this isn't directly about Hector, HOWEVER I also love Fantina and this line has be going crazy.
what did she say
what did she mean
What did she huh when she wuh
Fan club... FAN club... do we think Fantina and Hector just hang out and talk about you??? 😭😭😭 is it just the two of them, or are there more??? I love these two sm. Squeezing them so tight.
I also love the pun! Like if we think about it, an HVAC is just a bigger fan!
I am not immune to silly jokes. Thank u to the devs, this cracks me up.
Tumblr media
anyways he it LITERALLY baby and I cannot wait to meet him properly in a few weeks. Getting up on a step-stool to bite his hands.

I love bartender!reader!!!!!! She seems so sweet and collected...but I was wondering if she's got a little fire in her? Maybe they're at a party together and she gets jealous......which is new because she's usually the calm one out of her and rafe. Hope you're doing great <3
loved writing this bc you're so right!!! it's just so not like her to lose her temper over trivial things but oh🫣 hope you're doing just a great as well💖
i'm usually so unproblematic - r.c
pairing: rafe x pogue!reader (bartender!reader universe) warnings: allusions to smut but no actual smut.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You’re sitting in Rafe’s truck, staring out at the huge house in front of you, stomach in knots. It’s a mansion, more like.
Kook house. Kook party. Rich people everywhere. You can already hear the thrum of music, even from inside the car, bass-heavy, vibrating through the seats.
You chew your bottom lip and glance over at Rafe. He’s calm, casually messing with the radio, probably about to put on those trashy songs he loves that you absolutely hate but pretend to like because you love him.
It's insane how easy it is for him to just... be cool about this. But you?
You’re not so sure.
"This was a bad idea," you mumble, half-joking but also half-serious.
Rafe turns to you, one eyebrow raised, lips pulling into a crooked smile. “Nervous?”
You give him a look. “Obviously. I’m not...I don’t do these things. I don’t know these people.”
You’ve been with Rafe for almost a year now, give or take. Said your I love yous, met each other’s families. Hell, you’ve spent more time at Tannyhill than at your own place lately, and you’ve grown used to Rafe’s kook side. His friends, though? These parties? A whole other beast.
“I already met Topper. Isn’t that enough?”
He laughs under his breath, reaching over to take your hand. “You’ll be fine. It’s Kelce, and a few other people. No big deal.”
No big deal, you think. Easy for him to say when he’s been around these people his whole life. For you, being a pogue, working extra shifts at the country club just to pay rent… yeah, this is a little different.
“I know, I know. I’ll be fine. It’s just— I’m out of my element.”
He squeezes your hand. “Hey. You’re with me. That’s all that matters.” 
You’re with Rafe.
The Rafe who loves you, who can’t keep his hands off you even when you’re watching movies. The Rafe who gets jealous over dumb things, like if you laugh too hard at one of JJ’s jokes, even though he’s just your seventeen-year-old neighbor. The Rafe who texts you goodnight, even when you’re in the same room, because he’s a sap and you secretly love it.
“Alright, let’s go,” you agree, trying to hype yourself up.
Rafe smiles, and then he’s out of the truck, jogging over to your side to open the door for you, a perfect gentleman. You roll your eyes but step out, the night air brushing your bare shoulders. You weren’t sure how to dress for this party, so you chose to wear something…safe.
A pretty red top you only used on special occasions and your best demim skirt. It wasn’t exactly kook material but at least you weren’t in your worn-out shorts and usual crop top or in your work uniform.
The moment you walk inside, though, it's like stepping into a different world. The house is packed. People everywhere, laughing, drinking, hanging by the pool. Everything’s pristine and polished, and you feel their eyes on you the second you walk in.
Rafe wraps an arm around your waist, pulling you close.
“Want a drink?” he asks, leaning down so you can hear him over the music.
You nod, trying not to let the fact that people are definitely staring at you freak you out. You’re not a Kook. You’re his girl, though, and you know how much that pisses some of them off.
A few minutes later, you’ve got a drink in hand, and Kelce’s talking your ear off about something you don’t really understand. Golf. You smile and nod along, doing your best to keep up, but the truth is, you’re not listening. You’re too busy watching the crowd, still feeling like you don’t fit in.
That’s when you notice her.
Tall. Pretty, in that rich, polished way that’s almost too perfect. And she’s glaring. Right. At. You.
Your stomach drops, and you tear your eyes away, sipping your drink to cover the dread that suddenly hits you. You don’t know who she is, but she’s been staring at you since you walked in, and it’s starting to mess with your head. Was there something on your face? Had you met before at the club? Maybe she didn't like your drinks.
“Baby, you okay?” Rafe’s voice snaps you out of your thoughts, his hand resting on the small of your back.
“Yeah, fine,” you lie, forcing a smile. He frowns slightly but doesn’t push it. Kelce’s still talking, oblivious.
You try to ignore it, but as the night goes on, she keeps popping up. Always staring with that look crazied in her eyes, like she could kill you.
You’ve had a couple drinks by now, and your nerves are turning into a kind of irritation.
Finally, you excuse yourself to the bathroom, needing a break from the overwhelming feeling of being watched. You lock the door behind you, exhaling slowly as you stare at your reflection. Were you seeing things? Overreacting? Surely, Rafe or Kelce would’ve noticed as well, right? Or maybe they were used to this. 
I’m just overthinking it, you tell yourself. I’m fine. She’s just..
But when you open the door to leave, she’s there. Leaning against the wall, arms crossed, staring at you with that same stupid look, as if you personally offended her by daring to exist. 
“Can I help you?” you blurt out before you can stop yourself.
She doesn’t smile, only tilts her head, giving you the most disgusted once-over you’ve ever seen in your life. 
“You’re Rafe’s new thing, huh?”
What? 
You’ve had just enough to drink that your filter is basically nonexistent now.
You blink, confusion killing the buzz in your head. “Sorry, do I know you?”
“No,” she says, her voice dripping with disdain. “But I know you.”
You laugh awkwardly, nothing about this is funny. “Okay? So what’s your problem?”
Her eyes narrow, lips tinted pink curling. Oh, she’s mad now. She steps up closer to you, practically chest-to-chest.
“My problem is that I don’t get why someone like you is with Rafe. He used to have a certain standard.”
Oh.
You almost laugh again because...wow. Really? That’s what this is about?
“Okay, Regina George,” you mutter under your breath. You’re not in the mood for this. You tilt your head, giving her your best innocent smile.  “And who are you?”
“Sophie. I dated Rafe for two years, before you, obviously,” she says, like that’s supposed to mean something. You didn’t know him back then, you hadn’t even spoken a word to him. "Guess he didn’t mention me."
His ex. Of course. Of course she’s his ex. 
You snort before you can stop yourself.
"Nope, pretty sure he forgot to bring you up.”
You feel a little sting of jealousy in your chest, but you swallow it down. You’re not letting this girl get under your skin. You’re better than that. You didn’t know him, it’s fine.
 “I’m not really interested in whatever this is.” You move to step around her, but she blocks your path.
“Just a word of advice,” she grits out, “He’s not the kind of guy who sticks around for long. Especially not with girls like you.”
That does it. The alcohol, the nerves, the whole night—you’re seconds away from losing it.
“What the fuck is your problem?” you snap, your hands curling into fists at your sides.
“Dirty pogues who think—”
"Okay. I’m not gonna play whatever this is with you," you interrupt her, gesturing between the two of you, stepping forward so you’re toe-to-toe with her now. "If he wanted to be with a walking Vineyard Vines ad, he would be. But he’s not. He’s with me."
“You think you’re different?” she spits, voice laced with venom. "Special?"
Your laugh comes out more of a bark. “If you were so special, you wouldn’t be here, playing guard dog outside the bathroom. Move."
“Or what?” she challenges, her lips curling in that same superior smirk that makes your blood boil. “What are you gonna do, pogue?”
That’s it.
You feel the fire flare up in your chest, screw this girl. Your hands ball into fists, and you’re half a second from knocking that smug look right off her face when Topper steps in.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, let’s not turn this into Jerry Springer, alright?" He holds up his hands like he’s breaking up a fight at a middle school dance.
You’re staring daggers at Sophie, and she’s glaring right back, but his hands are still up, a peacekeeper grin plastered across his face as he looks between the two of you.
“Let’s not do this,” his eyes landing on Sophie. “C’mon, Soph, no need for the drama, yeah?”
She scoffs, crossing her arms and stepping back with an exaggerated roll of her eyes. “Whatever, Topper.
He watches her go before turning back to you, eyebrows raised. “You good?”
You nod, still fuming, but grateful he stepped in when he did.
"Yeah. Thanks."
You let him take you away because if he doesn’t, you're going to follow her and throw a drink in her face or do something worse. You feel like you could punch her right in her perfect, stuck-up face. 
He leads you back to where Rafe is, and you’re too upset to even look at him. His hands are on you the second you’re close, pulling you to him like he can tell something’s off.
"Baby," his lips brush against your temple. "What’s wrong? You look like you’re ready to kill someone."
You don’t answer. You can’t. Not without completely blowing up.
Rafe’s brow furrows, his eyes darting between you and Topper.
“What happened?” he asks again, more forceful this time.
Topper gives him a look but doesn’t say anything, just shrugs. “Nothing, man. Just some girl drama. Don’t worry about it.”
Girl drama your ass.
He turns to you, and suddenly, he’s all over you, his hands on your waist, the other settling on the back of your head-
“Baby, talk to me. What’s going on?”
You pull away, shaking your head, still too mad to speak.
He follows, his hands reaching for yours. “Hey, c’mon.”
Finally, you look at him and the second you see his face, that stupid, worried puppy-dog expression, the anger starts to melt away.
“I’m mad,” you admit, “I got jealous. Your ex’s a bitch.”
Rafe blinks, and then, to your surprise, he laughs. A real, genuine laugh.
You glare at him. “It’s not funny!”
“No, no, it’s not,” he says, quickly sobering, though there’s still a stupid smirk at his lips. “I’ve never seen you jealous before.”
You cross your arms, still pouting. “I’m serious, Rafe. She was awful.”
He wraps his arms around you, pulling you close. “I don’t care about her. At all. I care about you.”
You roll your eyes, but your heart is softening.
“She said you wouldn’t stick around.”
Rafe’s smile fades, and he pulls back just enough to look you in the eyes. “That’s bullshit. You know that, right?”
"She’s a psycho.”
Rafe’s expression changes, his frown deepening. "Sophie?"
"Yeah," you snap, because you hate the sound of her name coming out of his lips, "Sophie. Called me a dirty pogue, which—real original.”
“She what?” Rafe’s jaw tightens, and for a second, you see a flash of that old Rafe—the one who’d get into fights at the drop of a hat. "I’ll handle it.”
You’ve seen it before—his protective streak, it could turn dangerous if he wasn’t careful. Part of you loves it, the way he’d go to war for you without even blinking. But another part of you hates that you have so much power over him.
Right now, you’re still too pissy to care about him handling anything.
You push past him, heading for the exit, needing air and well deserving space. Everything inside you is on fire, and all you can think is that you need to get out. Anything but this house full of people who make you feel like you’re just dirt.
People like her.
You can’t stop hearing her nasal voice in your head, those snide comments digging into you like little needles, bringing up that same old insecurity.
“Baby, hold on,” His voice is behind you, and his hand is instantly catching yours, tugging you back before you can make it to the door.
You spin around, already ready to snap, but then you see his face—eyes wide, brow furrowed, genuinely freaked out that you’re upset.
“Don’t listen to her, she’s full of shit.”
You stare at him, your chest tight and aching, because yeah, you know she’s full of it, but it still got to you. It still hurt.
You swallow the lump in your throat, trying to find the right words, even though everything feels like a mess.
“It got in my head, Rafe. I hate that she said that. I’m so sick of people looking at me like I don’t belong just because I’m not—”
He cuts you off, stepping closer, and before you can even finish the thought, he's dragging you into him.
“You belong with me. That’s all that matters.”
You let out a breath, but you’re still worked up.
“But I don’t need some stuck-up kook girl who thinks she’s better than me telling me I don’t fit in. I know I’m not like them, but she said it like I wasn’t good enough for you. Like I’m just some—”
Rafe’s lips are on yours before you can finish. He only pecks you, but it’s enough to shut you up, to make your brain go silent for a second.
“Stop,” his voice is almost pleading. “Stop thinking like that. I love you, okay? I don’t care what anyone else says.”
You blink up at him, you want to stay mad, but also want to let it go because he’s right here, so close, and he’s got that look on his face that makes your heart soar.
“You don’t get it.”
He pulls you closer, hands gripping your hips, hating to have any space between you.
“Then tell me,” he murmurs, pressing another kiss to your lips. “Tell me why you’re letting her get in your head.”
You huff, but the fight in you is starting to die out.
“Because she made me feel like I’m less.”
He tilts your head back enough to look at you.
“That’s bullshit,” his fingers are gentle as they trail up your jaw, brushing over your cheek. “I’m not going anywhere.”
You feel a little stupid for letting that girl get to you in the first place. But damn it, you’ve heard it before—from other people, from yourself—that nagging voice that says you’re not enough.
“I know.” you mumble though you’re still a little embarrassed.
Rafe smiles then, that sweet smile he only ever gives you, and he presses his lips to your forehead.
“Good,” he says, tugging you even closer, trying to wrap himself around you. “I’m obsessed with you, and I don’t care what her or anyone else says.”
You let out a shaky laugh, finally letting yourself relax in his arms.
“You’re obsessed with me?” you tease, tilting your head to meet his eyes.
“Hell yeah,” he grins, his hands sliding up your back, one hand slipping down to squeeze your ass, his thumb sliding just under the hem of your skirt. “I can’t keep my hands off you. You know that. It’s becoming a real problem.”
You roll your eyes, trying to play it cool, but you don’t stop the giggle from bubbling out. The way he’s looking at you right now, he can’t even think straight because you’re standing in front of him—it drives you up the walls.
He leans down and kisses you again, and this time it’s not...casual. His lips move against yours, trying to take every thought in your head, and it’s working. Your hands slide up, wrapping around his neck as his tongue brushes against yours.
You don’t think you’ll ever get used to this. 
He grips you harder, lips moving to tease against your ear, “You’re mine, baby and I’m not fucking going anywhere.”
That hits you, hard, a truth he always reassures you off but still feels brand new when he does say it.
Everything that pissed you off, all the crap Sophie said, it doesn’t matter anymore. 
“Stop making me horny,” You whine out, tugging at his shirt and pulling him closer.
You can feel his grin against your skin as he leans in, biting your lip playfully before kissing you again, you know he’s enjoying teasing you. His hand slides down to grab a handful of your ass again, making you gasp against his mouth, and you feel him smirk.
“I like you horny.”
You’re in the middle of this stupid party, surrounded by people who probably hate you for breathing, but all you can think about is how much you want him right now. His lips move over yours, trying to claim you, and you’re more than happy to let him. It’s messy, all tongues and spit, but you don’t care.
You love how rough and needy he is, how he groans into your mouth like he’s been dying to kiss you all night. It’s the kind of kiss that leaves you dizzy, and you’re not sure if it’s the alcohol or him—or both.
You tug at his shirt, frustrated with how much fabric is in the way, and he chuckles against your mouth, biting down on your bottom lip just hard enough to make you gasp. His hands slide down up to your neck, tightening around your throat, and you let out a soft whimper into his mouth, making him grin.
“You're just so—” his lips brush over your cheek, then down to your bottom lip, kissing and biting just hard enough to make you squirm, "Beautiful, aren't you?"
You’re normally not one for pda, not at all.
The idea of people watching, of eyes on you while you're with someone, always made your skin crawl. But when Rafe kisses you like this? When he’s got his hands on you? Your brain goes dumb, and every ounce of self-consciousness fizzes out.  It's embarrassing. 
All you can think about is the way he’s making you feel, the way he’s holding you against him, leaving you breathless and wanting more.
You’re so not this person, not the girl who makes out with her boyfriend in the middle of a crowded room. But with Rafe you can’t even think straight. 
His hands slide under your skirt for the millionth time, blunt fingernails gripping your plushy thighs, and you nearly whine.
“Rafe,” you breathe, trying to pull away long enough to think properly, but he just kisses you harder, more insistent. “Baby, stop,” you manage to whisper, though you don’t mean it at all.
He pulls back, stunning blue eyes gone all dark, his breath hot against your lips.
“You want me to stop?” he teases, his hands still on your hips, clawing into your skin in a way that makes your knees go weak.
You shake your head, biting your lip, and his grin widens.
“Didn’t think so,” he tsks before leaning in to kiss you again.
You’re so turned on, it’s ridiculous. 
“I—fuck,” you pant, trying to get the words out between kisses, but he’s relentless, pressing you back against a wall, his lips latching on to your neck, sucking a bruise into your skin “Baby, please—”
He groans against your neck, one hand sliding up under your top, claiming the bare skin of your waist, and you swear you’re about to lose it.
“Please what, hmm?”
You bite your lip, trying to stay composed, but you’re way past that now.
All you can think about is how much you need him. Right now.
“Take me to the truck,” you nearly beg him, only loud enough for him to hear, but you know he catches it because he pulls back, pupils blown wide.
The corner of his lips lifts, “Yeah? You need me that bad?”
You nod, not even caring how desperate you sound.
“Please.”
Your voice cracks a little on the last word, but you don’t care.
You need him, and you need him now.
ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ˏˋ°•*⁀
Forty minute later, the air inside the truck reeks of sex.
You’re breathless, flushed all over, and your legs have turned into jelly.
Rafe’s next to you, grinning like an idiot already fixing his jeans, still catching his breath. It’s written all over you—the tousled hair, the smudged lipstick, the way your top is barely hanging on properly as you try to straighten it out, the stickiness you can still feel between your legs, on your panties.
You feel filthy.
You bite back a smile as you adjust your skirt, your body still recovering from the way he had your face pressed against the seat.  
“Shit,” you breathe out, trying to get it together, your fingers fumbling to fix your bra strap, “I feel like my makeup’s a mess.”
He chuckles, leaning in his seat with that cocky look that made you want to jump him in the first place.
“You look perfect,” he says, eyeing you up and down like he’s ready to go another round.
You roll your eyes but can’t help the heat that rises to your cheeks. “Yeah, you look like you just ran a marathon.”
He laughs, reaching over to pull you close, his lips pecking your hair, “Worth it.”
You’re about to leave the truck when the front door opens, and as you both step out, you catch sight of Sophie and her friends walking past. Perfect timing. Of course.
She’s glaring—hard—and her friends are snickering, whispering to each other like they’ve just seen something they shouldn't.
Sophie’s nose wrinkles as her gaze flicks between you and Rafe, her expression twisting into disgust like you’re both some kind of wild animals who just rolled around in the mud.
You feel smug.
You meet her stare for a second too long, the corner of your mouth lifting in the tiniest, most satisfied smirk. You know she knows exactly what just happened in that truck, and it’s killing her. She’s practically seething, her friends muttering furiously under their breath as they walk by, noses in the air.
Rafe doesn’t bother glancing their way—his fingers hook into one of the belt loops of your skirt, tugging you back to him with enough force to make you stumble into his built chest, the most natural thing in the world.
“Thirty more minutes,” he murmurs against your cheek, planting a kiss there, casual but so possessive, his lips lingering to make your stomach shake with butterflies again, "And I'm taking you home."
And that’s what makes it even sweeter.

protective clarisse save me ANWAYSSSS enjoy
*mentions of clarisse picking reader up and carrying her around
PLEASE ignore the fact i forgot ambrosia existed thanks 🙏🙏 yk i just be saying stuff
it starts out like any capture the flag game
except for the fact you’re on different teams
like in so it goes when clar tells y/n “don’t do anything i wouldn’t do”
everyone once in a while the teams switch up
and clarisse has a really hard time when you’re not on the same team, but she can usually function
she’s worried out of her mind obvi
we all know you’re her achilles heel
but for some reason this time clarisse just has a really bad feeling
she’ll probably threaten everyone on her team- if they so much as LOOK at you in the wrong way she’s going to make their lives a literal hell
and everyone is like ok scary lady 🫡
they all know clarisse don’t play about you
so the game is going pretty normal
you’re just doing your thing and clarisse is hunting around you
it’s really funny because you and a few of your siblings are just fighting whoever makes their way to you
and you win every time
bc clarisse is still letting you win 😭😭😭😭
the good members of her team get told to turn around
and then she lets the weaker ones, the stragglers she doesn’t care about, pass through and then smiles when you cheer after winning even tho she can’t see you
you feel her eyes on you tho sometimes it’s kinda creepy
but basically annabeth and the blue team had set up these trenches in random parts of the wood
they were lined with like a bunch of leaves and spare linens so they were soft at the bottom
but someone 🙄🙄🙄 ugh
forgot to soften up one of them and that’s the one you fall into
she hears you scream and she’s like WOAH HOLY FUCK
running through the woods you’re crying at the bottom of this 6 ft deep hole your siblings are screaming
like she literally throws herself to the ground and drags you out of the pit pure adrenaline
and like she could tell just by your screams and the look on your face that you were HURT HURT
but she knows you need her rn so she pulls you into her lap and asks what hurts
and you can’t even speak you’re in so much pain but you gesture to your leg and maybe clarisse just didn’t want to notice it before but like that bitch is BROKEN
she’s literally shaking
“it’s okay it’s okay baby it’s okay someone is gonna go get a healer right? SOMEONE IS GOING TO GO GET A HEALER, RIGHT?”
*cue like 10 random campers all running off*
and you’re screaming and crying and your siblings are freaking out so the game kinda stops bc everyone is like what happened 😭
then they just walk into this clearing and see you pale and crying and leg obviously broken, sitting in a shaking clarisse’s lap
one of her siblings definitely has to come over and subtly say that she’s like doing a good job LMAO
bc she is STRUGGLING
like she’s never been so scared in her life
her heart is pounding her hands are shaking
but for the first time in her life she’s not really angry right now
she’s just fucking terrified
and she HATES it
she’s stroking your hair and has her arm wrapped around your waist so tight
she tells you “just dig your nails into my arm”
and you can’t even comprehend what’s going on so she grabs your hands and let’s you squeeze so hard she swears her fingers come out a little crooked
FINALLY some apollo kids come over with a stretcher
so then she starts yelling at them “BE GENTLER SHES HURT DUMBFUCKS”
then finally after clarisse’s incessant screaming she holds your hand as they take you back to the healers
then 20 minutes later they reset your leg and put it in a little cast and give you some AMAZING painkillers
so you’re like omg
clarisse is like pale and sweaty and her heartbeat is so erratic one of the healers actually has to come over and be like “maybe you should sit down and get checked out..?”
she starts screaming at them
then you’re like “omg no my saviors are fighting ☹️☹️☹️☹️”
“no no i’m sorry i didn’t mean to make you sad it’s fine it’s fine we’re not fighting”
“yay!!!!!!!”
she has to lay down in your bed and take some really deep breaths in order to calm down
and you’re just happy bc you are floating and you have your gf with you
you’re babbling on about something and clarisse is like wtf is happening to me
but also she’s acting like you just died
holding your head to her chest and staring off into the distance like that one painting of ivan the terrible holding his dead son y’all know
and you’re just happy
she’s kissing all over your face and head and telling you about how she’s gonna help you
“i’ll carry you whenever you don’t feel like using your crutches, i’ll make sure you take all your medicine, i’ll find and kill whoever did this to you, i’ll sleep with you every night just in case, and i won’t let you out of my sight ever again, and i’ll make chiron switch the teams back”
she ends up doing all of those things obvi
she annoys chiron so much he makes a permanent rule that the ares and your cabin always have to be on the same team
clarisse becomes 10x worse in terms of protectiveness
like she’s watching you like a HAWK
she just felt so totally helpless in that moment so unprepared and she never wants to feel like that again
she doesn’t think her heart can take it actually 😭
she does find the person and loses dessert privileges for 5 months for what she did!!!!!
she sleeps with you ever night bc the meds make you sleep restlessly and she’s always there to whisper in your ear and lull you back to sleep
even if you’re like oh i can just use my crutches she’s always staring at the ground like it’s a monster that’s gonna hurt you so she’s like
“hm well i don’t think so actually haha just let me carry you”
“I WANT TO WALK CLARISSE”
*picking you up* “no it’s fine this is safest”
“LET ME DOWN”
basically you’re just the love of her life and she can’t imagine something else happening to you

I saw you asked for requests a few days ago. I was wondering if you would consider doing another part of the Kent!reader x Jamie fics.
I was thinking they do end up pregnant and its them telling everyone they’re pregnant . I can see everyone being so excited for them. And then Roy is just freaking out.
Since they’ve already discussed wanting to be together forever and have kids I can also see them deciding to get married before the baby is born in a small ceremony like Beard had.
I have quite a few requests about Jamie x reader having a kid, so if that ain’t your jam, maybe don’t read my next few posts😂 It’s totally my jam tho, maybe bc I’m suffering from baby fever again. thanks for requesting and for your patience!!
Tumblr media
let’s fall in love for the night  
Jamie’s jiggling his leg up and down so fast that you’re surprised he hasn’t cramped yet. 
“Calm down,” you hiss, hand on his knee. 
“Can’t,” he whispers back. “Roy’s gonna fucking kill me.”  
You have no sympathy for him. “Yeah, and whose fault is that? Yours.”
Jamie shoots you a sideways glance. “Excuse me, this was a team effort.”
“Whatever,” you say. “I still say it’s your fault.”
Molly swoops by to refill your water glasses. “Dinner’s ready in a few minutes. Roy and Phoebe have been working very hard,” she says. 
She raises her eyebrows on the word very, and you’re sure that Roy’s patience is being pushed to his limits. He loves cooking and refuses to let anyone help him, but he also loves your niece and can’t deny her anything she wants. 
“Better go check on them,” she says, leaving you and Jamie alone again in the backyard. 
Jamie resumes the previous conversation and says, “Well, I wasn’t the one wearing that blue thing with the flowers.”
“Well obviously,” you shoot back, “it wouldn’t even fit you.”
Jamie’s stopped jiggling his leg and he places his hand on top of yours. “Oi. Has Roy ever actually killed anyone before, or does he just have serial killer eyebrows?”
You wrinkle your nose and ask, “Why the fuck would I know?”
“You’re his sister,” Jamie replies in Phoebe’s patented duh tone. 
“I’m his baby sister,” you say. “I’m even younger than Molly. If he’s killed someone, they’ve both conspired to make sure I’ll never find out. And hey, don’t make fun of the eyebrows. There’s a good chance this baby’s gonna end up with them.”
“Babe you don’t have ‘em,” Jamie points out. 
“I wax,” you say smugly. “Oh, Molly texted. Time to go inside.”
Jamie groans but lets you lead him to the table. 
All told, Phoebe didn’t do half bad. 
“Auntie, I did the potatoes all by myself,” she says. 
You look to Roy for confirmation. He grunts and gives a tiny nod. 
“Great job, Phoebs,” you say. 
Molly sets down her fork. “I’ve been thinking of changing my name back to ‘Kent,’” she says. 
“Brill,” says Jamie. 
“Fucking finally,” Roy says as he hands Phoebe some money. “For future words,” he mouths to her as she counts it before depositing what you’re pretty sure is 20 quid into her pocket. 
Molly says, “We’ll all be the Kents again,” and you can feel Jamie go stiff next to you.
“The fuck’s wrong with you?” Roy asks, and you turn to see Jamie’s gone completely pale. 
You pinch his thigh and he jumps. “Nothing,” he says hurriedly. “Well, not nothing. But, I dunno, don’t want to overshadow Molls’s good news, ya know? It ain’t important.”
You pinch him again. 
“Ok, it’s actually a little fucking important (sorry Phoebe, take it from Roy). But um, maybe you could help me babe?”
He shoots you a pleading look so you take pity on him. You’ve had more than twenty years dealing with Roy, so you’ll let Jamie slide this once.
“Right, so, we’ve been meaning to tell you- I’m having a baby,” you blurt out. 
Roy’s dinner roll gets crushed in his hand as his face goes bright red. 
“What,” he growls, and you’re not sure if you’re more terrified by the absence of “fuck”s or the fact that it was a statement, not a question. 
“That’s wonderful, love!” Molly says before Roy can say anything else. She’s not looking at him but you can practically feel him take psychic damage from the shut up and be happy you prick, message she’s sure to be telepathically sending him. 
“It’s Jamie’s, right?” she continues, taking a bite of salad. 
“The fuck kind of question is that?” you ask indignantly. “Who else’s would it be?”
“You don’t have to pay me for that one,” Phoebe pipes up. “I’ll give you a free tab of one hundred words because of the baby. If it’s a girl, you can have fifty more.”
You grin. “Sounds like a plan.”
“You’re probably going to owe her the fifty, Phoebs,” Molly says. She points to Jamie with her fork. “I mean, look at him. He practically screams ‘girl dad.’” 
“That’s- fucking- great,” Roy garbles out. “‘Scuse me.”
“We’re having a backyard wedding next Saturday, too,” you call after him. “So we probably won’t all be the Kents again.”
You wince as he slams a door from somewhere in the house. 
“He’ll come ‘round,” Molly says consolingly. “Remember how he was with Phoebe? And I was already married!”
You grip Jamie’s hand. “Molls, why can’t he just emote like a regular person? I mean honestly, did our parents fuck him up that bad?”
Molly raises a shoulder in a half shrug. “I don’t know, babe. Think he’s just like us, really, afraid of loving something so he just pushes it all away. And besides, you’re the baby of the family. We’ve always tried to protect you and keep you safe, and sometimes he feels like you’re out of reach.”
You ask, “He told you that?” and Molly just laughs. 
“Not in so many words,” she replies. “But you know how he is.”
“He’s an arsehole,” you grumble. “I’m going to go talk to him.
Roy is, predictably, in the backyard. Not many places for him to go and think properly. 
You find him sitting under the tree. 
“Oi,” you say, “budge over.”
He grunts and moves so you’re not quite in the dirt. 
“Can you be sitting on the ground?” he asks. 
“It’s been like three months,” you reply, “That isn’t long enough for me to get stuck places.”
Roy says, “hmm,” but doesn’t offer up anything else so you just sit in silence next to him, pressing your shoulder to his. 
“Why the fuck did it have to be Tartt?” he asks after a beat. “Could’ve been fucking anyone in the fucking world, and you fucking chose him.”
“You like Jamie,” you say in confusion. 
“I don’t,” Roy replies, “he’s a prick. And a fucking footballer. Why’d you have to go for a fucking good-for-nothing footballer? He can’t even be around for his family when they go through shit because he’s going to be busy scoring fucking meaningless goals or some shit.”
That stings for a moment, but you take a good look at Roy’s face. It’s stoic, but shit if you can’t read it like a book. Blood is blood, and you’re a Kent just like him. 
“This isn’t about him, is it. It’s about you. You think you did a shit job as a brother and an uncle so Jamie’s going to be a shit father.”
“I missed out on a lot,” Roy says hoarsely. “And before you say fucking shit, I’m not fucking crying. So shut the fuck about it.”
You grin and wrap your arms around him. “You’re the best big brother a girl could ask for. Took all my cues from you. And anyway, you’ve been there when it counts. Phoebe fucking adores you, practically attached at the hip you two. And yeah, Molls and I missed you when you were at Sunderland and Chelsea and wherever. But… you came back. We needed you, and you came back. So don’t go projecting your stupid self-image on Jamie, because he’s not like that. And you’re not either, you absolute fucking ape-armed frizzy-haired shit-faced twat.”
Roy huffs out a chuckle. “Ape-arms. Haven’t heard that one in a while.”
“Almost went with ‘camel knees.’ Haven’t used that since I was ten, but I thought it might hit too close to home these days.”
Roy laughs for real this time and tilts his head so it’s resting on yours. “Still fucking weird that my little sister’s having a kid.”
You say, “You’ll get over it. Oh, and don’t wear a goddamn T-shirt on Saturday.”
It’s rainy, so the backyard wedding becomes a living room wedding, because who really gives a shit? Richmond have a game tomorrow, but for today they’re in yours and Jamie’s house all dressed up (but still in trainers) laughing and smiling as Dani officiates what you’re sure is your dream wedding. 
It’s not the one you and Molly would’ve giggled about as kids when you sneaked from your bed into hers, but everyone you loves is here. 
For once, Jamie’s house almost seems too small.  
(Dani was the only person you two knew who was ordained or whatever. And hey, could you have picked a happier person for it?)
Molly and Keeley had gone out with you to find a white dress, Sam and Phoebe were the flower-people, and Roy walked you down the stairs to where Jamie was standing with Isaac by his side. 
“I’m not fucking crying,” Roy whispers in your ear. “It’s fucking allergies from being in this prick’s house for too long.”
“It’s my house too,” you remind him. 
Roy just sniffs, pats your hand where it’s tucked into his arm, and presses a kiss to your cheek.
All in all, it was pretty great. 
Gifts range from hair products to restaurant gift cards to designer baby clothes, including a tie-dyed onesie from Phoebe. 
“I have a matching one at home,” she explains. 
But now it’s the evening and everyone is gone except family. 
“Can’t believe my baby’s married,” says a beaming Georgie as she ruffles Jamie’s hair from their place on the couch.
“Can’t believe he attained his childhood goal of marrying into the Kent family,” Molly remarks. 
Jamie grins smugly. “What can I say, I’m a fucking goal-getter.”
You’re snuggled in Jamie’s arms, dress exchanged for a white sweatshirt and sweatpants set, courtesy of Rebecca. 
“I’d’ve had a poster of you on me wall if they made one, babe,” Jamie says. “Better sight than that hairy git.”
Roy just rolls his eyes and says “I’m getting another beer.”
“Can you bring me a piece of cake?” you call after him.
“Me too?” Phoebe asks, looking hopefully at Molly. 
Jamie pats your knee. “Don’t think he heard you, love. I’ll get it for ya. You too, Phoebs.” He shoots a wink in her direction, and she giggles. 
“Oi, grandad,” Jamie says, walking into the kitchen. “Did you hear your sister?”
Roy turns around from the fridge with a menacing look.  
“If she has a single moment of unhappiness, I’m going to fucking kill you,” he growls.
“Jesus, sorry,” Jamie says, hands in the air. “What’s got your knickers all in a twist?”
Fucking Jamie, never able to back down from a good squabble with Roy. 
They’re both keeping their voices down because they know if they got caught, no less than three people would be grabbing them by the ear and yelling. 
They might know this from personal experience. 
Roy says, “She’s my little sister. I’d fucking murder for her, and so would Molly. Always tried to make it easier for her when she missed our parents and shit, but it always fucking got to her anyway. Didn’t help that I fucked off to Sunderland at fucking nine, before she was even fucking born. She’s wanted a family of her own for fucking ages, and if you fuck this up for her they will never. Find. Your body.”
Jamie’s not sure Roy’s ever looked this menacing, which is saying something, because he’s Roy fucking Kent. He always looks menacing. 
So he nods and says quietly, “I ain’t gonna fuck it up, Coach. Had a shit dad too. Always wished he were around, except when he was then he’d get all fuckin’ angry and shit. But… still wanted him, y’know? Weird. Anyway, not gonna be like that with her. I want a family too.”
Roy looks straight into his eyes, looking for the barest hint of insincerity. Jamie’s gaze doesn’t waver. He’s not sure of much, but he’s sure of this. He’s sure of you. 
Roy says, “Right,” nods once, then claps Jamie on the shoulder right at his phone dings. 
Jamie pulls out his phone to a text from you that reads, pls stop fangirling over my brother. baby wants cake and so does ur mum
He smiles and tries to figure out how to balance three plates at once.

finished 3.3 story (yes I know I’m kinda late, I was busy) and all I have to say is DAMN. that hurt
spoilers, obviously
first of all, killing FIVE characters in one version??? what is this 😭😭😭 (or six if we count both trinnon and tribbie)
ngl I thought cipher would fake her death just like she did with the ‘a lie everyone believes in becomes truth’ and that flame reaver only thought she was dead…
I know they all had to die to get to the 2nd cycle, but I must say, I feel like some deaths were kinda rushed
ALSO WHAT THE HECK IS THIS.
Tumblr media
THREE TIMES IN THE SAME SPOT?? (or like. three swords piercing through the same spot??? idk) that was not necessary 😭😭 god this hurt me so bad. I alr miss mydei
also am so mad that flame reaver literally fights an heir, kills them and then just leaves. at least have some respect for the dead istg
Tumblr media
you see that?? bro killed mydei, didn’t elaborate any further and just left 😭
also mydei’s not really dead right?
I hate how I get attached to almost every chrysos heir and then they die. I mean, I expected that but still…
I gotta admit, I had goosebumps while fighting aquila, they really cooked with making them scary
Tumblr media
I mean look at that. they casually cut their neck (?) in half (and those red and blue cables are probably representing veins. this is dark.)
(also proi proi is offically my new fav hsr song)
I really like the whole thing regarding seliose, how she kinda became the titan, was ruthless and all even though before that, she held so much love for humanity. it was a cool subplot and I was genuinely surprised
Tumblr media
how strong is phainon actually to be able to use his bare hands to pull down a freaking titan. ngl I wouldn’t wanna be a titan bcs this man can get real scary sometimes
Tumblr media
I’m so glad that hyacine turned out to be so important, and more than just a cute healer with a little unicorn, she (as well as cipher) grew on me a lot
they also improved so much with the cutscenes, I mean look at the shading
…and I was so shocked to learn that that mf bartholos (or whatever this guy’s name was) was THE FREAKING TITAN OF TRICKERY??
my question is
Tumblr media
WHERE DID HIS NAME GO. I know like “ohhh it’s kevin, it’s his real name” I know. what I mean is, why did it change suddenly upon entering vortex of genesis? is it like a condition before the demigod trial or something? you gotta be your real self?? sigh idk anymore
Tumblr media
AND WHY IS HE NOT SURPRISED WHEN HIS DEAD FRIEND SUDDENLY APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE??? you’re really suspicious rn phainon

I think it would be really great if the first to realize they’re a mind reader on Athos also realized she was trans after accidentally reading Ethan’s mind and going. Wh. That’s a woman?? And then when Terrence tried to do a little chill mentoring and be like hey :) I know your secret :)) she absolutely PANICKED that she’d get revealed as a secret she devil trying to corrupt the lives of innocent brothers or whatever Athos propaganda was like on that front. And obviously bolted.
It’s part way Terrence and Ethan sighing and realizing Adventure tm found them anyway. Like I figure they intended to be very hands off on the grand experiment, a little nudging at most, but also the kid was obviously FREAKED out and having things go very badly very publicly for the first new mind reader could be a bad misstep for the whole project. So they rangled up their gaggle of sons (who were taking an awful lot after Elli for maximum chaos) and declared a manhunt family vacation. It’s a cute look into their domestic life, but also Terrence was obviously feeling really bad about spooking her bc it felt like a ghost of some of his own trauma what with the being hunted down bit.
Meanwhile mind reader was desperately trying to figure out what triggered the sudden ability and how to replicate, if all women were telepaths, and if maybe she could be exorcised??? Could a priest help???? Dealing with a metric ton of internalized transmisogyny and the terrifying idea that maybe people can sense it?? Since that Terrence fellow knew before she did???? And is now hunting her down?!??!????
In proper Bujold fashion she’d probably fall in love with one of their sons, who in his rebellion and desperation to be seen as an adult decided to take the initiative and find what his dads were looking for before they could. He makes her feel like maybe it’s okay to break the mold, she makes him feel seen (and do some introspection on why he’s really acting out). Plus being heterosexual is basically peak rebellion on Athos, though that’s more of a lucky side effect.
It culminated in Terrence and Ethan finally cornering the pair, who are luckily more on the ‘nana can’t catch me’ and ‘oh crap im grounded’ side of things than the previous ‘I’m going to be burned at the stake’ level of catastrophizing. At which point Terrence delivered a long and ambiguous speech of solidarity, lots of ‘I know what it’s like because im the same’ and ‘you’re not a monster or scourge of society’ and enough confusing references to biology and genetics that she cried “thank god the father there’s another woman on this planet!” and started asking a million questions in the trans direction.
only for a very confused Terrence to go “what? No. I’m a telepath like you.”
“oh that….I kinda forgot about that part.”

Litte details abt my Hazbin rewrite that i wanna share :)
OK SO!!! IT'S DOOOOOONEEEE!!!!!!
So I FINALLY finished drawing out everything I wrote out for some major plot point in my hazbin rewrite 😋 BUT!!!
There's some things that I have made art of or talked about that are sorta important (but they're really not, just some silly things that I pictured in this that I never got the chance to talk about yet LOL!!!)
If you don't really care, feel free to skip this but there are some little doodles here too that will basically get all my points across just as well!
-So first point, I've touched on this a little bit here but Niffty and Husk are BROS. Like fr ride or die with each other.
In this rewrite, I want Niffty to have been an overlord like Husk (or at least just as powerful as he is because I feel like Alastor is EXTREMELY attracted to power and he wouldn't just make deals with weak as shit people unless he was gaining something GRAND).
But Husk and Niffty, they both.... really hate Alastor. I think Husk is much more vocal with his hatred towards Alastor but do NOT be fooled, NIFFTY WANTS HIS ASS IN THE GROUND TOO!!!!!!
And I think it's because of this hatred, because of this shared, unfortunate situation that they've both found themselves in in regards to being contracted to the Radio Demon, I think they are really close. Like, they look out for each other and watch each others backs because who else is gonna do it? ALASTOR? LOL!!!!
Tumblr media
-Here's my Sir Pentious and Cherri Bomb designs!! I realized when I was making all those drawings for the rewrite that I never drew them! So here they are! 😋
Pentious has prosthetic arms that he made himself not too long after he arrived in Hell YEARS AGO bc I wanted to REAAALLY lean into the whole snake thing. And I also made him more steampunk-y because I think it's cool and that he'd look super adorable with little gear markings on his scales
And I read that Cherri died in around the 80's so I wanted to give her an aussie rocker look LMAOO Wild hair, big ol' hoop earrings and tattered clothes because she's COOL!!
Tumblr media
-Niffty is the (m)hotel's maid/rooms keeper still (and it was only SLIGHTLY degrading in the beginning). The biggest reasons Alastor made her the maid is because of her OCD (he's an old man from the 1930's, he thinks OCD means being a neat freak) and because she is able to control all kinds of insects and vermin- which the hotel is INFESTED with
Niffty is also the only one with a spare key to Charlie and Vaggie's house, she's honestly the one they trust the MOST out of everyone at the hotel to have a key to their place in case of an emergency (and she only abuses it SOMETIMES)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-HUSK IS NOT THE HOTEL BARTENDER IN THIS!!!!!!
When I designed the hotel to look more like a motel, obviously there was no place to put a bar and I WANTED THAT! Like, I understand the humor in having a bar in a rehabilitation facility (it IS REALLY FUNNY I KNOW) but I really don't think that, even in this, neither Charlie or Vaggie would allow Alastor or Angel or anyone else to tell THEM what the hotel needs.
Like, they LITERALLY built this place with their BARE HANDS, I think they're both verrrry resistant to any changes and such that others may want to implement (for both the good and bad), even if that person was THE Radio Demon
So instead, Alastor had brought him in as a sorta bodyguard for the hotel (as a huge middle finger to Vaggie, who is not only the hotel manager but also is a very ready protector of this place)
(Husk DOES still sell liquor though, like that is something that is totally happening, it's just very hush-hush. He keeps it in his room and sells it to the patrons of the hotel (sometimes Pretentious and most of the time it's just Angel. Charlie and Vaggie have no idea this is happening))
(Niffty 100% knows since she's the one who cleans the rooms but she wouldn't sell out Husk because that's her bro)
Tumblr media
-And speaking of the Radio Demon!!! Neither Charlie or Vaggie are scared of him. I mean, they're not really scared of him in canon (they could be sometimes tho ig)
Charlie is one of the strongest beings in Hell and Vaggie is (secretly) an angel who, as far as they all know, can't be killed by a Sinner. So neither of them are really threatened by him. Vaggie definitely voices this more than Charlie does, in fact, Charlie is almost always more than happy to just let Alastor talk and threaten as much as he wants because she's not violent and is very humble (that's what good people do, right?)
Alastor is also just as good of a Facility Manager of the Hazbin Hotel as he is in canon, and by that I mean he does not do his job and when he does, he sucks at it LOLLLL. He is very unhelpful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-Sundays are the only day where the hotel isn't doing any reformative work/lessons so it's everyones' day off (it's holy day AMEN!) 
(Charlie WOULD make them pray on Sundays if it wasn't for the fact that every time she would try to guide a prayer, she would bleed from every hole in her body) 
Tumblr media
-AND THE LAST POINT IS....
The Hazbin Hotel doesn't JUST do lessons in goodness, they also teach about the 10 Commandments and go on “field trips” to do volunteer work (soup kitchens, cleaning parks, helping Hell with one smile at a time :)
Tumblr media
Thanks for reading and be sure to check in tomorrow for the first page of a comic retelling Charlie's meeting with Adam in episode one!!!

c.yborg c.ookie t word headcanons bc why not 🫶
hiii welcome to my first headcanons post lol. decided to do my girl (/gender neutral) cyborg first bc i love them and i rarely see this kinda content for them. so if i gotta do everything in this mf then so be it /silly
also if ur wondering why the title is l.ike t.his its bc i dont want my cringe to end up in main tags </3
so uh YEAH! ENJOY :D
Tumblr media
general:
i wanna say they're pretty darn close to being a 50/50 switch! they’re a tad bit more lee tho ahaha
though they're completely made of metal they have built in sensory receptors so they are able to feel touch. tickles are 1000% included <3
i dont know what else to put in general anyways here's a song I remember one day maybe was the first day of my life you came to my heart my eyes open wide to you i feel warm behind you take my hand inside kiss me kiss me kiss me again
lee:
ohhh lee cyborg my absolute beloved i think about them so often
their worst spots are their HIPSSS 1000% and they give me tkish shoulder blades vibes idk
this poor thing struggles so badly to say The T Word when in a lee mood. cannot ask for tks outright to save their life
very nervous and panicky lee. lowkey freaks out when realizing they're about to get got, lotsa "NONONO WAITWAITWAIT-" from them xd
their laugh is Loud. and very contagious! if you're wrecking them expect to laugh along w them bc omg
they get really flustered when they're getting tk'd lol. imagine an overheating computer, warm af obviously and their fans get noticeably loud
not to mention i lowkey wanna say they look absolutely STUNNING when they laugh in general. like they completely let themselves go (in a good way!)
oh god im yapping. ily cyborg
Anyway! bro is a kicker. a thrasher. a whatever-else-you-can-think-of-er. GFHGKDHGKDFH
they try so hard to get that under control tho bc the last thing they want is to hurt their ler. they Are made of metal so it'd probably hurt if you got a whack from them lol
they also curse a lot Oops.. cover ur ears kids
speakin of which their main ler is aloe bc yeahh. i think about these two a lot
stuff has Definitely happened during one of cy's tune ups.. or more than one i should say
so aloe's just workin on them and they're thinking Oh Shit This Actually Tks
so obviously they try their hardest to stay still and stifle their laugh since they don't wanna disturb their partner's flow. aloe takes notice but she just smiles and says "i'm almost done, hold on a little longer ok?"
and god that just flusters cyborg To The Max
she knows what shes doing SHE KNOWS WHARHETKHSG
did i mention i <3 lee cyborg?
ler:
despite how nervous they are as a lee, they can def ler if they want to! it ultimately depends on the person
and boy oh boy are they a MENACE! (they don't call it Cyborg Menace for nothing ahaefhjsfjdshf)
they're rly big on revenge tks. wrecked them recently? watch ur back because they Will get you when you least expect it!
cheer up tks are common w them too :3 feeling under the weather? have no fear! cyborg will take notice. literally have no fearFJDKFJFSDJ
they've gotten aloe many a time since she always seems to be overworking herself. not on cy's watch!!!!!
now how'd they go about being a ler? GLAD YOU ASKED! *looking into an audience w like three people* they usually like to surprise their lee
u could just be minding ur own business when this absolute menace traps u in a hug from behind and starts going to town on you
sometimes it would just end up being a super quick surprise attack ending w them zooming away cackling. so proud of themselves
we do a bit of trolling
getting wrecked by cyborg? expect to hear stuff like "is it really that bad? i'm barely even doing anything!" (<- me when i lie) and "haha! you're more ticklish than you let on!"
when you've had enough they'll check if you're ok ofc! they are very considerate despite how big a menace they are
will complement you a lot. "you held up for a good while there! i'm proud of ya!" like oh my god do you want me to explode on impact
UMMM OK i think that is all i have for this post! sorry it got so long thats just what happens when ur ill about a character
for more exciting videos please subscri

just going to dump some assorted thoughts here for keeps
I know everyone knows one of the main themes of deltarune is escapism but esp with ch3 its also about how much you love things that exist in these fictional settings so much that they become real to you…. Sharing each other’s narrative Worlds…
re krusie v suselle: Idk i don’t think the [suselle] development was as bad as everyone else thought but it was really interesting that they basically have the exact same dynamic [krusie] has once they got to know each other … which they are all major loser dorks also it seemed to be a lot of ‘lets feed both sides’ and both sides got lines/dialogue that felt like they could be read the same way anywayyyy
i have to say ppl jumping to >kris is evil incarnate after the new chapters is crazy this game is about AUTONOMY… andddddd also it genuinely works hard to give you explanations for everyone’s actions
the actual deflowered rose like wowwww beautiful metacommentary about the evils of compulsory heterosexuality and forcing roles upon people who don’t want them but have no ability to resist … THIS SCENE IS INSANEEEEE [+++ comphet reading comes from kris being forced to play the 'boy'/aggressor/masc dominator role when they are Not a boy, comphet is as much about gender roles imo as it is about sexuality]
no like its actually so fucked up that the only times we know how much kris and noelle actually care for each other besides the distance and cold war isssss when we’re actively hurting the other like WHY DOES IT TAKE US TERRIFYING/HURTING THE POOR GIRL FOR KRIS TO SHOW SO MUCH FEAR…. Plus noelle always being vaguely awkward or weirded out but you scare her into vulnerability/happiness at seeing the Real kris Like MAN….
The fragility of their forced trauma bond…..🥹🥹🥹🥹 .... my beautiful toxic terrified children ship that’s about the dangers of comphet
>here's how my ship can still win >me personally? i wish to believe there is hella love triangle angle to this if toby fox is based enough to go that way soooooo ... like the distant fraught rs between noelle and kris versus their obvious favouritism towards susie and Wellllll it would be really fun to see imo... especially if the festival does end up becoming sort of a balancing act
noelle genuinely so cute and charming to meee i love shy anxious awkward girl archetype why wouldn't iiii... also all her in-game sprites really highlight how cute she is as well... which makes it all the more fucked up that the cutest she looks is on the couch scene where she's reaching out I HATE EVERYONEEE
>shoutout to my stupid toxic ship >uhhh the way kriselle has the highest quality fanarts and hella fucked up fancomics like you have to be a Freak to enjoy this ship but a Sophisticated freak who #gets it
suselle just has the least #dynamics on the other hand kriselle makes you feel like you are poking yourself with rusted needles and pulling them out and krusie is good bc i'm someone who loves freak loser outsider x freak loser outsider
also rlly rlly clear to me that susie is not ‘the girl’ from the prophecy like that is so obviously noelle cmon guys ... also that LOVE does not actually refer to the romantic love like ... did the metacommentary from gerson about two derivative texts sharing similarities but also changing a lot mean nothing to you people...
can't believe ppl r saying carol isn't hot like yall are FAKEEE milf fans
also icb that sans/toriel is canon. like toby fox had one life and one chance and he was like my canon ship is the skeleton with the goat
seriously does feel like we are approaching everyone v. kris endgame battle... mom im scared

Some Akilah hcs bc I've neglected her
(I've never really written for Akilah which is funny bc shes lowkey my favourite YJ, shes just so pure and good and nice and sweet. Like I dont want to imagine anything bad happening to her ever.)
Wherever they go, Akilah will find A Creature to bond with. Like Van gives her a sandwich and she's immediately got a MASSIVE flock of pigeons around her as she feeds them. Tai actually has to get kinda strict about her not feeding her whole sandwich to the birds, just the crusts. Then they start buying birdseed and little ziploc bags so she can safely feed birds when they're out without giving up her lunch.
Generally so sweet and mellow and just goes with the flow BUT people being mean to animals makes her SO mad and upset. Like Shauna and Mari run into the big flock of birds that are being fed sandwich crumbs to watch them fly up in response and Akilah yells at them to stop and pushes Mari over when she doesn't bc its not FAIR to scare them like that! One time Mel realises that if you act like youre throwing something, the ducks will swim over anyway and she and Gen are giggling about it and Akilah tells her to stop being mean and tricking them. Obviously killing bugs is out too, whether its accidently stepping on them (Mel gets upset at this too) but also killing spiders/moths in the house is forbidden- Mari gets into trouble with Akilah most bc she'll panic and hit a spider with az book or whatever which will make Akilah burst into tears and maybe jump on her.
Saying that Mari does try the hardest to not mess with animals bc she doesn't want to upset her bestie. They dont play the same games- Akilah prefers sylvanians to barbies- but they're still besties.
Has a farm of toy animals and knows each of the million animals by name and knows exactly where they should be. Like shes not untidy by nature but she'll freak out if anyone puts her toys away roughly like no Shauna you cant put her plastic sheep into a sealed box, how will they BREATHE??? She and Tai will sit while Tai does her hair for her and its really calming and bonding for them both.
Really sweet and kind but also not great at standing up against the strongest voice in the room. Like if someone gets left out or teased or is upset, Akilah wont say anything in the moment but she'll go find the person after and basically do anything she can to help them feel better (often this involves getting to see or hold the latest animal in her menagerie, real or not). Like she'll sit with them and hold their hand and ask if they're ok.
She can't swim. I dont know why Ive decided this but I have. It's not a massive stress or source of embrassment or anything but there's possibly sometimes some teasing when theyre at the beach or whatever.
She WILL correct anyone if it comes to animal welfare. Like they're at the garden centre getting Lottie new herbs and she hears someone saying something about how goldfish dont live long and dont need much and she goes right into explaining how actually they CAN and they DO.
Not very loud when wanting affection for herself, not bc shes scared to ask for it but bc proximity is enough. Like she'll climb up onto the couch and curl herself up against Tai's back and if Tai doesnt acknowlege her, she's happy to stay like that. Ofc Tai always does acknowlege her but depending on if shes super in the middle of something, sometimes she might let Akilah stay cuddled up to her side and just occasionlly reach out to pat her if her hands are busy whereas when she's not busy she'll turn around and take Akilah into her lap and cuddle her properly. They dont usually talk much at times like this- if shes upset, Akilah tends to withdraw into herself rather than talking it out but Akilah loves the contact and close attention.
Looks up to Tai SO much and admires her so much- they have the bond of being the only Black women in the group too- while Tai sees Akilah as like the little sister she never had. When Tai is feeling vulnerable and small, Van is her go to for actual help and comfort if shes in acute distress but Akilah is a close second as someone she just can BE around. She feels more able to let her walls down around her- if she just needs to curl up next to someone, Akilah is such a gentle calming presence and Akilah loves knowing that Tai feels safe with her.

Hello!
You can have a story or a headcanon (From your AU, she is great)
Urogi × Extremely calm reader.
Don't know how to explain, they're like, like the sun and the moon. Underwater and cheerful Urogi and a calm, perhaps slow and sleepy reader.
thank you in advance! your blog is one of my favorites <3
AW, this means so much to me! So sweet!
also i’m sorry guys for not posting multiple times a day, my brain is fried and i’m extremely busy ☠️
Urogi with a calm S/O
warnings: none
Tumblr media
met him through Aizetsu
you and aizetsu are besties bc u both are extremely calm people and reserved
so whenever you came over to his house, you didn’t expect to see 4 loud and chaotic brothers
zohakuten was relatively quiet until sekido or urogi and karaku pissed him off
the first one to greet to you was urogi
immediately checking you out and trying to figure out who u were
asked if u were aizetsu’s lover
aizetsu said no so fast, he didn’t want to get harassed
urogi was happy on the other hand
“yay! that means they can be mine!”
sekido hit Urogi so hard for saying that
karaku tried to get into your pants a few times but you were like “no! bye!”
you started to befriend urogi and talk to him more, even starting to hang out
even though he is hyper 99.99999% of the time, you enjoy it
he can drive so he takes you everywhere, listening to “Eyes without a face” by Billy Idol
it’s very spiritual tbh
takes you to the beach
will take your instagram photos for you
he’s been trained
shows you his crystals that him and aizetsu collect
whenever you express that you collect crystals too, Urogi goes crazy and needs to absolutely see them which results in bringing him over
your room radiates your energy, sleepy and calm and Urogi realizes how much you are like Aizetsu!
which makes him even more clingy towards you
his energy can sometimes overwhelm you and when you snap at him, he gets so sad and leaves you alone
you feel bad but he’s happy within like 5 seconds
the day that he asks you out is on the beach, the sun is rising and you are watching it
he looks so nervous, you can clearly tell something is up
when you ask him what’s up with him
he pours all of his feelings out to you, expressing how he has liked you since the first day he met you and how he can’t get enough of you
obviously you accept it bc you aren’t dumb, like why would you reject HIM?! He’s so fine and cute and sweet
you are somehow able to deal with his energy most of the time, sometimes you can get overwhelmed but it’s not terrible
he gets REALLY clingy to you, he has to be touching you 24/7 or he has a freak out
whenever you saw the scar on his waist, you were extremely concerned because Urogi casually just said
“oh it’s from when my dad hit me with a beer bottle.”
he completely brushed it off?! like what?!
Urogi doesn’t mind talking about his childhood, he’s indifferent about it
it’s his way of coping with it, he acts like it wasn’t that serious, it’s just how he grew up
he ended up telling you about how he used to get bullied a bunch
and how he struggles with his self image sometimes, he gets really anxious sometimes and doesn’t eat for days but then he’ll end up eating a bunch later on
now it’s your job to get him back on track!
your calm energy relaxes him a bit
if he’s at your house, he is completely calm and sleeps on you
he’s heavy but you aren’t going to push him off
Urogi posts you a lot
he makes you known to everyone
you are referred to as “Urogi’s S/O”
random people will say hi to you in the hallways
urogi LOVES kissing you
everytime he sees you, he has to kiss you
he’s very passionate about it, he usually ends up out of breath
you almost die half the time, he cuts off half your air supply
Urogi is legit obsessed with you
he wants you to be equally as obsessed with him so he looks up love spells online
it works though
i mean he really didn’t need the love spell but man, you got equally obsessed as him
you are so calm that it terrifies him sometimes
if he did something bad, he’s scared that you’re mad
you’re not
Urogi doesn’t handle calm energy too well whenever he thinks they are angry
Urogi is a D2 overthinker when it comes to his S/O
Sekido is a D1 overthinker y’all
Urogi doesn’t think 90% of the time but the 10% goes to you
stresses over gifts and holidays and dates
it’s okay because you already take care of everything and take care of it for Urogi
everyone says you guys are the golden retriever and black cat duo
so that’s what you dressed up for halloween as
even though Urogi wanted to be a bird
tries to compare you to a bird
compliments 24/7
extremely loyal
he is in love with you and you take a lot of his firsts

tlou season 2 episode 6 thoughts PART 1
this is in 2 parts bc tumblr hates me? part 2 here
okay i'm gonna lead out the gate and say that I'm really going to be nitpicking and comparing this episode to the game in ways that are certainly not fair but also. that's just my vibe. in the greater context of the show i think this episode makes a lot of sense but also feels like the culmination of all the choices i don't agree with! so, this is probably a bit too much of a hater post but I'm eager to discuss if you'd like. let's get to it.
spoilers for tlou hbo and tlou part ii below
EPISODE 6: THE PRICE
GOOD -the legos are cute i guess. i too would be looking for legos in the apocalypse -seth being a cop is funny and also fitting. -this is mostly actually going to be in the iffy/bad section but in theory joel making the guitar for her is nice (however...we'll return to this) -i was wondering if we'd get a burn backstory (me and the rest of the freaks over on ao3 have written this scene a million times and i never not one single time read one where she pushes herself against a hot pot. we all used bleach! also why the fuck did she do this on her birthday) (i did like that tommy was the one who brought her home though) -is it a bow and arrow? is it water guns? oh ellie honey i wish it was. nice easter egg wish you guys just gave us those things -ellie being a shit about jesse and the sex talk to joel was funny -the space part of the museum looked reallllllly nice, the layout, the diorama, the helmets and capsule etc. -the walkman is nice except that we have not seen it since season 1 so like. way to bring that back! sorry this is the good section. i think the apollo tape and the way she has an immersive daydream was really nice -- one of my favorite parts of the game with that piece of score, too. -dragging eugene's body the same way they drag joel's did make me go jesus christ -but god damn if i don't love little sadie and ecstacy. any chance to hear those damn songs -interesting how joel is getting all of his affairs in order the night before he dies -- maria apologizing and making sure he knows he's family, obviously this scene with ellie which i will get to. i guess i like the tragedy of it? but also it feels a little lazy sorry sorry i know this is the good section -stg he better be strumming helplessly hoping or am i projecting -despite the fact that i have beef with literally everything else i like that we end the episode with her going back to the theater. i wish we had seen her hands shake or some blood or some sort of indication of how she's affected but whatever
IFFY (i want to start this off and say that i think iffy/bad are pretty on par for this episode so get ready for the critical downer vibes) -the cold open. bro. i don't like it. austin 1983 and joel has a deadbeat cop dad. okay! (hiiiii tony dalton, nice to see you outside of the mcu). i just cannot figure out what the fuck the point of this scene is. abuse begest abuse? the cycle of violence? if you have the option to do the worst thing but don't then you're better than the worst thing? framing joel's father as a figure who teaches him to lie, to take pain, to tough it up for the sake of others, also to feel shame? i mean, basically joel is a liar out of necessity, so are we meant to think he's now just a compulsive liar? and this sort of backstory for joel comes too late. he is DEAD. and it's not even about tommy! so what is the point! also. why the fuuuuck does he wear his dad's watch. literally why. why why why why why whyyyyyyy did we make that a throughline. DID I HALLUCINATE THIS YOU GUYS I FEEL CRAZY CAUSE WHY DID THEY DO THIS maybe this should have been in the bad part -two people in the intro was stupid sorry like he's dead HES DEAD -i feel like the physical intimacy of this scene after ellie gets burned and is on painkillers is not earned. a baby girl, a kiss on her head, the embrace. based on every other interaction they have i do not buy that they have any sort of familiarity with each other like this? like, i get that it's nice, but to me it feels like they're square pegs in round holes of father/daughter here -ellie eating the cake with her hands was funny but again with this immaturity my GOD -pedro was not kidding when he said he can't sing! nbd but also those did not look like his hands lol -when he went i understand about her arm was he like. i get why you'd hurt yourself? i get why you want to hide it? are we talking about self harm? what are we talking about -i am selfish and i miss the dinosaur part of the museum, okay? i miss it. i miss the dialogue, i miss the way ellie learns things, i miss it -ellie not rattling off space facts...we know she knows them. she said some to dina last episode! my continued beef with the way ellie is written -- impulsive, uncurious, immature. where is her brain where is her soul why is she BORING AND DUMB. WHERE IS SALLY FUCKING RIDE -the fireflies -- i think that ellie was stopping to look at them? i mean, this is a callback to the first game and also meant to sum up what happens in the latter half of the birthday flashback -- ellie thinking about the fireflies. but like, it was so fast and i feel like this keeps happening. there are short references to things that matter but you won't catch them unless you know what's coming.

hi!! as a fellow royal trio-truther ive been ADORING and loving your posts so much <3 you mentioned that you've like mentally re-wired shusumi so i was curious if you had a list of head-canons for how they develop in the game/post-game!! Im super curious to hear (: also any head-canons for the akesumi dynamic would be great bc I hate how little the game developed them together !!!
OMGGGGGGGGG HAYYYYYYYYYY ok so. first. look at this (idr if i posted this here already but if i did look again heh..)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ok now ill actually talk under the cut
note that some of this is headcanon territory bc i just be frolicking at this point
some backstory i fell in love w sumi as soon as her art was revealed i was like omfg peak design PEAKKKKKK i love her so much so i was really excited abt her but i feel like there were so many loose ends w her confidant and namely her crush on protag sometimes doing her a disservice (it turned ppl off from her (understandable bc i also dislike when writers make a female character out to be dependent on a male character) but also made other ppl weird abt her in the same breath....... shivers. people who overly-romanticize/sexualize mentally ill characters (especially girls/women) freak me out sorry
anyway that put me off frm p5 fandom for a hot minute. BUT regardless. i think people often focus on like "shy cute sadgirl kouhai crush-on-protag" for her which on top of atlus's.......mediocre handling of her also does her character a disservice... shes so multilayered!! she houses such insane convoluted levels of distress and fear and anger and reluctance and most of all STUBBORNNESS. i think her headstrong personality is not really emphasized in fandom but i can totally see it (maybe its just me but).
ok moving on to my shsm delusions i think to turn sumire's canon crush on its head i want to make them doomed to never get together. i think 3rd semester is so tense and high-emotion that royal trio are so deeply intertwined w each other:
Tumblr media
like they all are mildly-to-a-lot suicidal so they hold onto each other so tightly to make sure none of them spirals and does anything bad. i think in the end they just want the other two to be Okay, even if they themself doesn't. if the other two are ok, then it's all good.
ok back to shsm LMAO i think seeing their relationship as like an odd high-emotion situation makes sense. they love each other, obviously, and provide each other comfort, but the idea of a relationship slips thru their fingers like water. is that right...? is that how it is? like i said up there they just crumble under the weight of their own love. tldr theyre in no place to "date" each other........ but they have their "almost." they're inseparable, they love spending time with each other, but knowing in the back of their heads that it won't last, and they'll have to leave it be one day. "sometimes when i really love someone i leave them alone forever." peak shsm to me. "let's run away together - but what if it's not enough? what if all of this fear and sadness still stays? i take a man down to the river and he throws away his sadness but hes still left with his hands, he's still left with the river (paraphrased richard siken). peak shsm to me. i think they try to treat eachother so softly and gently that it fucks it all up, actually. peak shsm to me. it's not codependency in the sense that theyre not trying to save each other - they're just trying to salvage out some love from it all. all of these terrible things that happened: there's still love, right? there's still love. but the pain can't all be sifted out, and everything still hurts. but they still love. (they just don't date or even talk to each other much after graduating and i think they talk to akechi but to each other its suddenly COMPLICATED. i hate these guys)
ironically i think if you throw akechi in the mix it stabilizes out and i think shuakesumi could totally have a happy married ending. but shsm as a pair i dont see endgame for them. peak for me is that theyre in love and then they spend the rest of their lives trying to forget each other (they don't)
(If this sounds ridiculous and stupid im sorry. i just like shoving too-many-emotions onto my favs sometimes (a lot of the time))
IN REGARDS TO AKESUMI i think my latest 2 comics describe how i feel abt them pretty well!!! link 1 and link 2. actually i think akesumi's friendship is a great way for me to explore how i see/portray/feel about sumire, because i see them as way more similar than the game pays attention to. they're both stuck in their ways: sumire in her cowardice, hiding from the incident and refusing to move on, and akechi entrenched in his own traumas and feeling like he doesn't deserve more than that. their self-hatred manifests in two opposite ways but its very similar at the core. they both like. have no fucking clue what they're doing in terms of handling their pasts so that's why i think them working together to get around their own respective traumas is so fascinating: akechi is terrible at it, pushing sumire too far, but at the same time that perspective is something that she needs. meanwhile, her sensitive and observant personality shows akechi that like, you can have This too: a soft, good love. to have someone care about you unconditionally, so gently. you deserve that, too. yeah i can explode my head off now
i did not proofread this.
