give me an Al Munson who cleans up his act in prison and gets released early on good behavior a few months after the "earthquake" struck the town.

give me an Al Munson who hears the news about the murders shortly after getting out, and realizes it's his fault the people of Hawkins had so readily believed that Eddie could be capable of such things.

give me an Al Munson who immediately starts looking for Eddie to apologize for being a shitty dad.

give me an Al Munson who works his ass off for months to get back into Wayne's good graces and prove that he wants to be a part of Eddie's life again.

give me an Al Munson who may not understand his son's sexuality, but takes the time to unlearn some of his bigotries if it means gaining Eddie's trust back.

just give me an Al Munson who is trying to be better.

We completely forgot about the plot drawings, but we really wanted to finish this one. It's been a difficult few months, but we're happy with the work we've done.

Fujin, reborn after his defeat in the Temple of the Elements, finds his killer with a pregnant wife (technically they are not married, but hey, Sareena is expecting a child from him, these two have been together for a long time).

Yes, we like to draw Bi Han in his MK9 skin. And yes, we like to draw pregnant Sareena in ordinary civilian clothes.

(and Bi Han also wears a collar on his shoulder, the second one is identical to his beloved's neck)

I'm going to be so real I do not understand tim & steph shippers who feel that Steph dating Tim again would save her character. You can make an argument that giving Tim a more compelling love interest would be beneficial for him! And you can at least make an argument that the fujo mischaracterization of Steph would stop. However she'd still, inevitably, be treated as a prop character/extension for someone more popular 😭 it also wouldn't make her appear in more books! Tim doesn't have many frequent appearances at the moment either! You can just say you like the couple and want them back together without acting like you have some kind of moral stance

@goated33 got me thinking-

in some ways, vaggie has the personality and risk assessment capabilities of a small furry animal

meaning everyone in hell THINKS she's the idiot chihuahua, picking fights with the local dobermans, getting metaphorically (literally?) dragged away by charlie for her own good

the twist is she's actually one of those damn weasel things, able to fuck up creatures several times her size and almost impossible to kill normally- yet STILL she's somehow picking fights waaaaay above her weight class

charlie got headaches over this in the early days, i bet. before vaggie simmered down from "don't kill kids wft" to "sinners maybe kinda redeemable actually? not for killy killy stab??"

even now though there's the vibe that, if left alone with alastor and even one less fuck to give, vaggie would be throttling him in seconds flat

this would probably not go well... sadly, once she got started, i could see her probably not noticing or caring much. imagine charlie worrying about this possibility a lot. some nights staying awake, concerned who her girlfriend might pick a fight with next, while vaggie lies fast asleep in her arms, blissfully smiling... likely dreaming of finally getting to stab somebody again like she means it <3

[laurents-secret-diary]

Can we see any of your drawings you may have had for the side characters please??? 👉👈

ok ill just say this i was one of the “girls” salò shit was being done to in ms like straight up movie style psychological torture type bullying and tbf i dont tend to use the phrase “female camraderie” in general or esp about myself since im a man now. but if you asked me if I’ve experienced it i would say yes for instance in the countless intimate hushed conversation in bedrooms ive had with cis, straight women (same type of girl that was torturing me in ms) bonding over shared madness inducing experiences such as being in extremely abusive relationships with men. So i wouldnt jump the gun on that one. But whatever

Steve making the most pining, sad boy mixtape that he listens to on repeat. It's about his friend Eddie.

Eddie who is clueless about Steve's pining. Eddie who is the most tactile person he's ever met. So he's always slinging an arm around Steve or leaning on his shoulder during movie night. He'll run and jump on Steve's back for a piggyback ride or tackle him into the pool. It's slowly killing Steve because Eddie has no idea that Steve's in love with him.

In fact, for all the flirting Eddie does with Steve, the man has no idea he's even queer. 100 percent oblivious. Eddie has convinced himself that it's totally normal to flirt with everyone (he only flirts with Steve) and that it doesn't mean anything to cuddle your male friend on a regular basis (it means something) and poor Stevie is just suffering.

Maybe Eddie needs a ride one day because his van craps out, so he asks Steve to drive him to Indy and of course, the tape starts. after the first few songs Eddie's is having some thoughts. One, who the fuck is this tape about? Whoever it is, Steve clearly has BIG feelings for this girl. It makes Eddie feel like shit.

So he just keeps listening until he finally snaps and asks Steve who the chick is. Steve's confused, but Eddie presses further. He asks who the tape is about.

"What's her name? The girl you made this mix for?"

"There's no girl." Steve replies. His voice is tight like he's upset. Eddie would be so, so confused.

"Um, this is like some unrequited love pop music shit. Obviously you're in love with someone, so what's her name?" Eddie has to push.

Steve just tells Eddie to fuck off. They're both sorta pissed now. Eddie thought they were good enough friends that Steve would tell him. Steve can't have this conversation considering he's in love with his friend.

"Why won't you tell me her name...c'mon Stevie, I won't make fun of you. Is it Nancy again? Shitty considering she's dating Robbie. Tell me. Please. I'm dying to know who could have possibly inspired this mixtape." Eddie knows he's being an ass. He will get Steve to tell him.

Steve says nothing. Literally says nothing the rest of the way to Indy and back. It's not until they're pulling back into Hawkins that Eddie starts pestering again.

"Come on, dude. Who is this mystery girl you're so head over heels for? I mean literally, you put that song on there. Tears for Fears man, tell me, tell me, tell me-"

"It's not about a a girl. Shut the fuck up, man." Steve finally snaps. Eddie is just repeating over and over for Steve to tell him and it's annoying that he's so sure it's some girl.

"Then who?"

"I made the tape about you, asshole."

"What?"

"It's not some girl I'm in love with, it's you Eddie." Steve finally admits and he watches Eddie's face drop in horror. As Steve pulls up to Eddie's trailer, neither of them say a word. Steve is contemplating driving his car into a tree and Eddie is in shock. Because this cannot be happening, Eddie is straight and um, he definitely does not like Steve Harrington. Definitely isn't having a full fledged crisis right now.

"Man, I'm not... I'm not gay. I don't like you that way." Eddie finally tells him, refusing to meet Steve's eyes. Why does every word he just said feel like it's breaking Eddie apart too. He isn't sure he's being honest with Steve right now, but he cannot deal with this. He can't deal with the heartbreak all over Steve's face.

So Eddie gets out of the car and walks into his trailer. He doesn't look back or slow down. Steve is a second away from losing it. What was just pining is a rejection now. Worse than that, it feels like the whole world just fell down around Steve.

Despite how scared Steve was to tell Eddie, blatant rejection wasn't something he was worried about. Eddie flirted with him all the time. Always touching, always leaning into Steve's space. Calling him big boy or sweetheart. How could Steve have been so wrong? Eddie wasn't even into guys, let alone Steve. Eddie specifically said that he didn't like Steve that way. Eddie doesn't want him.

So, Steve listens to his sad mixtape and swears he'll move on even if that feels impossible.

Psst: read the follow up Moving On Pt. 1

Chapter 20 of Timeline of Theseus is now live!

Replaying old memories in their head and wishing to make more. (its a bireena-off)

You said old memories…but did not specify how old they had to be…

From this ask game

Sareena watched as Bi-Han paced around in the courtyard. It was odd to see him so docile and low energy. There was the sound of his steps and generously long chain dragging along the stone-tiled ground. She recalled how he had done some basic exercises the day before.

But today seemed like a more deflated Bi-Han.

His expression was blank and he just stared straight ahead. He walked with his hands behind his back, and he was rather disinterested in his surroundings. But not wholly oblivious–he seemed to remember the length of the chain as he turned to walk in the opposite direction.

"Sareena?"

She blinked and stared, struggling to hide her shock.

There was no chain. In fact, there was nothing staked to the ground that could be mistaken as something to hold a chain. He had never been shackled.

"Are you alright?" Bi-Han asked, frowning, annoyed.

She looked around from where she stood. She was still watching him like she had been told to–expect that wasn't what happened. It was a simple case of walking through the Fire Temple gardens and seeing Bi-Han was still there, still working on redeeming himself. "Alright enough," she said, not quite looking at him still. Now that she was looking at their surroundings, Sareena realized she was in a completely different location than what she had seen moments ago. As she glanced around, she realized the sky resembled the Netherrealm because of how red the setting sun was making it. The smoke from the bonfires and incense made things hazy.

Everything certainly smelled better, so she wasn't sure how she could have made such a foolish error in her surroundings.

Bi-Han frowned, his annoyance deepening.

Sareena glared up at him. If he was going to be rude by being annoyed by her, then she had no problem returning the favor.

His expression didn't change, but his shoulders lost a pinch of tension.

"Anyway, can I help you?" Sareena asked, already presenting as disinterested.

"I was trying to ask if you wanted to join me in drills," Bi-Han said.

Sareen raised an eyebrow at that. "You want me to join you."

Bi-Han's lips twitched down. "You were staring at me–I assumed that was what you wanted. Unlike most people, you haven't nagged me about how I've been feeling since being brought back. I thought it rude to just ignore you if you weren't planning on doing that." 

Sareena thought about it. She had grown restless with Ashrah still gone on what had to be her longest mission yet. While Sareena would never dare openly admit it, she had grown worried. And she wasn't the only one with siblings, but everyone else was a pain to deal with regarding the topic. Raiden was too nice and kind. Smoke and Syzoth both avoided the subject. Sonya wasn't opposed to referring to her brother's existence, but Sareena saw no point in saying much to her about it. And Johnny was…well, Johnny was Johnny. 

None of them were annoying to Sareena if they talked about anything else. But the subject of siblings, something about how they all talked about their brothers or sisters made Sareena want to roll her eyes.

Bi-Han, though…

She shrugged. "I guess I could drill with you if you're feeling lonely," she said with a teasing smirk.

Bi-Han narrowed his eyes. "With how the monks look at you, I figured you would be the lonely one. I no longer find demons reprehensible," he added.

Sareena rolled her eyes but gestured he lead the way. He had already spent his soft allowance (soft by Bi-Han Standards) in offering her to join him. But she was fine with that. It didn't bother her when he was gruff or short because that was just how he was. Human, demon–if he wasn't saying it with the intent to kill, Sareena couldn't help but find most people too thin-skinned to deal with him.

She followed Bi-Han's movements. But it didn't take long for her to feel as if she had done these drills before. Not just the motions but as if she had done them with Bi-Han before. The sunlight seemed to dim and Sareena could sense Bi-Han behind her. Something told her not to look over her shoulder or else something she had lost would become lost for good.

A touch that was sharp and rough with others was less so as it placed a hand on her glowing arm. Her form was off and he was correcting it. He said something, but the voice was distant and muffled–like falling ash. But with how he said it, she knew there was something in there that showed he could be saved. Both were in Quan Chi's vice. There was a way to escape it.

"Are you sure you're alright?" Bi-Han's gravelly voice cut through her thoughts.

Sareena frowned, now feeling dizzy. 

His hand grazed her arm, but instead of it being a gentle correction, it felt like he was ready to take her to the infirmary. "If you don't answer in the next–"

"I'm fine," she snapped.

He pulled back his hand, but there was a shade of concern in his features now.

"What?" Sareena hissed. "You look like you have something to say?"

Bi-Han seemed to be deliberating. Not hesitate–that was not a word Sareena would ever use on him. He was clearly thinking on how to phrase what he wanted to say, and he was either going to be strategic or an ass about it. With how something in him seemed to soften, he was going for strategic. "Ashrah has been on her mission for at least two months now, correct?"

Sareena gave a careful nod. "Yes…"

"Ever since she freed you from Quan Chi, neither of you have been away from each other that long." This time it wasn't a question–it was a simple fact, and it seemed like his intelligence when still leading the Lin Kuei had been quite accurate. 

Sareena knew most would say that was "creepy" or "stalker" behavior, she knew it was simply the intel he had and there was no reason to act like he didn't know it. So she shrugged. "What of it?"

Bi-han's expression flickered to something that wasn't annoyed, but not quite amused. "I've noticed you pacing around and overheard others commenting on that. If you don't feel like you can train–"

"Are you implying I'm some pathetic child without my sister?" Sareena let sparks out of her mouth.

"No." Bi-Han said, unphased. "Something else is bothering you, but if you aren't even interested in telling me about your sister, why would I think you'd tell me what's really going on?" He looked like he wanted to add something else but thought better of it.

Sareena felt something else familiar stir as she stood so close to him. Her back suddenly felt exposed. She glanced over her shoulder, and Bi-Han tensed, automatically preparing for a fight. Sareena then huffed and shook her head. "Yeah. Weird stuff I don't care to talk about," she said. Assuming she would have known how to say it if she could.

"Is there anything you'd want to talk about?" Bi-Han asked.

Sareena looked back at him, not hiding her shock at the question.

"Unless you were planning to ask me how I feel just like everyone else has been." He said, expression and tone flattening.

Sareena felt another familiar pang. A loneliness that seemed to go back centuries. It was something she could see but through a window with impossibly thick glass. She also felt a pang of pity–this was his way of asking for her company, she realized. "No, I don't think I'll do something as Raiden-esque as that," she said.

A huff. Was that amusement?

"Let's sit over there." Sareena pointed to one of the larger fire basins. "If you think your icy self can handle it, that is."

"Kuai Liang is my brother, of course I can handle being near fire." Bi-Han replied. The tone made Sareena truly uncertain if he got the joke and was playing along or not. He walked over and sat down. 

Sareena sat beside him on the stone bench. Despite the heat of the fire and blood red sky, she felt this was something new with Bi-Han, and it was something she was going to enjoy.
