I see you've been reading Murderbot Diaries, one my favorite series of all time! Would love to hear you scream about it (and maybe scream back) because it is just the best thing, I love Murderbot and all of its humans and ART so fucking much, they all made the past year livable for me

heLLO yeah i would love to scream and be screamed at about this series (╯✧∇✧)╯

i came here for the funky space sci-fi adventures and stayed for the narrative arc on healing from trauma, building support networks, and "fuck capitalism" attitude.

i think one of the neat thing about murderbot is that because it's not human, its commentary on human behaviours and compassion is just on the other side of familiar that it makes me want to shake the people around me like. why do we do this. but also like. we DO do this and i don't know why but i'm glad we do. and the thing about murderbot being all "ugh humans" yet consistently trying to hard for its humans and often just humans in general... mayhaps i have tears in my eyes.

ALSO constantly thinking about murderbot being overwhelmed by humans and giving up on interactions by just walking over to the corner and facing the wall. biggest mood ever

do u have a favourite meta or scene u wanna share !!!!!

paint me like one of your french girls

Wally Darling x Reader

Warnings: you aren’t very good at painting lol

although it is not necessary, I highly suggest reading my fics in their recommended order for the best experience! here is the link to all my silly lil wally fics in order. this is #2 :)

You weren’t the best painter, nor were you the best at picking up hints…

“... this is atrocious.”

You were not a painter. You were finding that much out right now.

“Well, don’t say that. It has me in it, so it can't be that bad, ha ha.” Wally jested.

Ehhh…

“Are you almost finished with it, neighbour?”

“I wouldn’t say I’m finished, but I’m almost ready to give up, yes,” you grumbled, the bristles of your brush carefully swiping some more paint onto the canvas. Yikes! Not carefully enough, it seems.

Wally noticed your grimace, laughing lightly. “It’s going to look good, I know it,” he claimed.

“You’re easily pleased, though,” you huffed, eyes flickering to him in a half-hearted glare. He giggled, shaking his head.

“I am honest,” he grinned, raising his right hand to swear on it. “Cross my heart, always and forever,” he promised, drawing the ‘x’ over his chest with a happy smile.

“At least I think I did Home some justice,” you snickered with a shrug. “You, not so much, Wally. I think you can still tell it’s you, though?”

“I’m sure I look amazing. Handsome!”

“I wouldn’t use that word for it, but the real you is?” You offered.

“Why, you’ll make me blush.”

You laughed lightly as you continued to paint, Wally remaining as still as a statue in his chosen position in front of home. His eyes never left you.

He loved the expressions you made. He just adored the twitch of your brow when you don’t quite approve of a detail, the silly grimace you wear when you’ve made a ‘mistake’, the way your tongue poked out a little when you were extra focussed... You were so entrancing!

“... going to start being a bit less uptight now,”

Wally hadn’t caught the first part, but figured out what you were saying.

“I guess I should probably give myself a little more credit than I am.” A little smile tugged at the corner of your lips. Oh! He enjoyed that expression most!

“I’m happy you say that,” Wally said, “I do mean it when I say I believe I will like it. Everyone has their own unique style. It’s nothing less than that,” he added, “plus, it’s made by you. That gives it extra special points!”

“Special, alright,” you joked quietly to yourself. It was definitely a unique piece, your painting.

“I just need to remind myself I don’t have much experience with this,” you sighed, “I need to cut myself some slack. I know practice is necessary to be as good as someone like you at this, and I haven’t put much of that in,”

“And if you were ever interested in such, I would always be around to offer my help if you so desire,” Wally assured.

“Thanks, Wally,” you tore your eyes away from your work, looking over at him. “I appreciate you. Always so sweet to me,” you sighed out dramatically. Unfortunately, your gaze didn't stick on him long enough to notice the redness growing on his cheeks from your compliments.

“Alas, I think I’m all done now,” you giggled, stepping back from your work. Now that you look it over, it really wasn’t too shabby, especially with your limited skill!

Wally stood up from his spot, starting his way over, as you turned the easel around so that he and Home could both see it. When Wally was close enough, he leaned forward a little, examining the painted canvas. Despite the knowledge that Wally would never judge you, your nerves twisted a little in your stomach as you watched his eyes study it with such intensity.

It was silent. He’s observed it for at least a minute now, not a word said.

…

“I know it’s-”

“It’s wonderful,” Wally cut you off, straightening his posture, his smile growing. “The absolute most, as is its creator,” he added as he looked at you. “Can I have it?” he asked, head tipping to the side.

“You… Want it?” you giggled sheepishly, peering over at your goofy little creation. Was it really nice enough for him to want to keep it?

“I love it, so of course I would like to have it. If you allow me to, of course,”

Your painting wasn’t much. To you, at least. To Wally on the other hand, it truly was extravagant.

It was cute. He and Home were nicely depicted together, Home painted quite well, and in his opinion, he himself had not looked nearly as bad as you’d been letting on.

His face had a cute, simple little smiley on it, as did the sun in the sky, two silly little features among others that you had added when you decided not to care so much anymore. It made him giggle. Overall, it was just yours, and that’s what really sealed the deal on his love for it.

“Hmm… where should I hang it, though? Maybe by the couch?” He wondered aloud, tapping his chin. “What do you think, Home?” He turned to face it, receiving quick excited waves and squeaks from the door. “Ha ha. I think that, too.”

“You actually want it?” You questioned,

“Of course,” Wally nodded. “Oh no! How impolite of me. I should be offering some sort of payment,” he realized.

“For this?” You laughed, looking back at the artwork. “I dont think it’s worth a whole lo–”

“Mwah!”

…

Huh?

You gaped at Wally, hand on your flushed cheek, right where his lips had been moments prior.

“Will that do?” He smiled.

You could only stare in disbelief, mind working overtime to process what had just happened.

“Neighbour?”

You laughed. You laughed, and you shook your head, hands covering your face. Oh, those silly little thoughts of yours!

“Oh my goodness, Wally,” you snickered. “Be careful with that! Someone might take it the wrong way,” you warned, a little giggle following.

“What do you mean, neighbour?” Wally questioned, brows furrowed. “Is kissing not a good thing?”

“I mean, it is, but there's two ways it can be perceived: platonically, or romantically,” you explained, rubbing at your face in an attempt to get rid of your blush with a cheeky smile.

“Think of it like this. Eddie and Frank kiss as a way to show their romantic love for each other. That's because they’re a couple,” you continued. “Are they who you learned it from?”

Wally stared at you for a moment, trying to comprehend all that you’ve said. Finally, his shoulders slumped slightly as he answered.

“... Yes,” he admitted, a bashful smile on his features.

“I figured,” you sniggered. “I mean, I’m not saying I didn’t like it or anything, but just keep what I said in mind,” you joked lightly with a playful wink, “but, we should find a place for this painting, shouldn’t we?” You placed your hands on your hips, looking between him and the piece.

“That sounds like a good idea, neighbour,” he agreed, carefully picking up the dried painting, grabbing the easel in his other hand.

“Let’s do that, then,”

…

“So, how did it go?” Eddie asked, placing a toasty mug of hot cocoa in front of a sulking Wally. “Not that great, I presume..?” He smiled sympathetically.

“They said to ‘be careful’ because ‘someone might get the wrong idea’...” he gave a gloomy smile. “But they also said they ‘didn’t dislike’ it?” He offered.

“So they thought the right idea, but brushed it off as being wrong,” Frank snickered, shaking his head at the ridiculousness of the situation while he sipped on a mug of his own.

Eddie sighed, rubbing at the back of his neck with a chuckle. This was harder than the couple originally anticipated…

You two would be the death of this neighbourhood if you didn’t perceive your feelings for each other soon.

yyyello!! I hope you enjoyed reading this!

here is a link to my silly lil wally fics in their recommended order if you would like :) these can also be found on my ao3 B) I also have a ko-fi if you'd like to support me! likes and reblogs are very much so appreciated B) (again, gimme dopamine boost, RAHHHHH) until next time <3

lol let’s be real we all would

CHECK YES OR NO

this is part of the dagger security universe but can be read as a stand-alone.

pairing: Hacker! Fanboy X Agent! Reader

warnings: none :)

a/n: it’s been a while since I’ve written anything but I’m back! Hope you all enjoy! As always, feedback is appreciated and if anyone has any ideas for a little oneshot or drabble relating to any of the dagger security books- drop me an ask 💜

It’s paperwork day at work. Your mind is swimming with detailed reports of the recent missions you’ve been apart of. It always has been your least favourite part of the job with you preferring to be out in the field.

Having just had your lunch, you flop down onto your chair at your desk, mentally preparing yourself to spend the rest of the day making your eyes go square as you type up the actions of the mission you partook in last week.

Frowning, you notice there’s a window open that wasn’t there a minute ago. A small pop up has appeared on your screen. Although this is no ordinary pop up, this one looks similar to every other pop up you would get normally except the text reads ‘Date night tonight? -M’ accompanied by two checkboxes marked yes or no below the question. You scoff in disbelief and pull out your phone to text Mickey.

Shaking your head at the absurdity of your boyfriend, you click on the box marked ‘no’ out of spite. Satisfied that the pop up has disappeared, you open the document you were working on and continue to type away, the office full of agents around you unaware as to what has just occurred.

No sooner have you gotten back to work, does another pop up appear on your screen. This one saying ‘pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaase’ still with the two options of yes or no.

Once again you choose no, huffing in frustration at Mickey’s persistence. You hope this time he gets the message that you’re working and don’t want to be bothered even if his annoying little pop ups are kind of cute.

Your phone buzzes with another message and you look down to see Mickey has messaged you again.

Putting your phone down once again, you take a deep breath and prepare to continue your work. However, your small hope that Mickey has got the message disappears when your computer makes a small noise and yet another pop up appears with the same question as the first time. However, this time when you go to click no, the pop up multiplies. You continue to furiously click the ’no’ box as even more of the annoyingly persistent pop ups fill your screen until all you can see are tiny windows of text asking you out.

You really don’t want to give him the satisfaction of this working but knowing Mickey, these pop ups won’t disappear unless you say yes.

Hanging your head in defeat, you hover over the yes box for a minute with your cursor before you click it dejectedly. With the speed at which all the pop ups disappear, you actually wonder if you’ve hallucinated the whole thing but when your phone buzzes with another incoming text, you know it was all real.

May I trade you an apple for the honor of admiring your beans?

I will accept the conditions of your trade offer 🐾

[lilbeanz]

Hi! So firstly I want to be a little direct (I hope I'm not being rude 😓) and ask if you're religious and if you practice witchcraft? When I started reading jodt I was pleasantly surprised to see the real life wicca holidays and traditional way of decorating for Yule. You even put in the candle language!!! 🕯️🕯️ (Even if a bit sneaky) It made me, a modern witch, feel seen in a work of fan made, free, easy consuming content. So I wanted to ask if it was a classic writer-researched-a-bit-too-much or you practiced it yourself. Sorry if the question made you uncomfortable .

Secondly I have say you're doing very well with everything and I admire the way you always interact on here and post something almost every day! Just make sure you can rest and have time for your offline life ❤️🔮 Blessed be

Ahhh!!! Merry meet! You are not being rude at all, and tysm for noticing🥺🫶 (it was a bit cheeky of me, wasn't it?😈)

Would I say I'm a witch? ....Sort of? I'd call myself a novice to the craft at best. I'm not explicitly religious, I don’t have an altar or worship any deities.

I dabble! I'm fascinated by witchcraft and wicca, and my family's always been quite witchy at heart.

I've done a couple of spells here and there, nothing huge. Like I said, I dabble... and RESEARCH THE HECK OUT IT🔮✨️

And Joanne really fucked up by having her magic world celebrate Christmas and Easter etc... I get that the Muggle world has blended alot with it when HP takes place -- and it is all from Harry’s pov -- but why would pureblooded witches and wizards celebrate Muggle Christian holidays? Especially families like the Malfoys.

As a witchy person, it just made no sense to me. The eight sabbats predate the christian holidays... Good thing the canon story is all from Harry’s perspective, huh? I saw my opportunity and I took it! 🤣

Also tysm, you're so sweet 🥺💕

Blessed be!🫶

[beanghostprincess]

the narcoleptic x insomniac acesan post got me thinking

i can just imagine ace wanting to be comforting and saying something like "it's okay sweetcheeks! i'll sleep enough for the both of us!" and just straight up passing out right after.

and sanji is just left standing there like. that's not. how it works... but he also finds himself really flustured because who allowed this guy to be this cute!?

This is sooo cute 😭💖 Ace would so do that and- And actually do it with good intentions. He is a sweetie to Sanji and Sanji can't get mad at him when he does stuff like this. I also like to think he actually does try to stay up with Sanji sometimes, though, and Sanji appreciates it anyway. Also!!!! We know Ace often falls asleep while eating and I just know Sanji manages to know when he's about to pass out to move him so he doesn't ruin the food and, well, doesn't hit his head against the table 😭

[bunabi]

Less being weird at Bunabi through anon and more asking politely for pictures of Sabine through anon. If thats alright 👉🏻👈🏻 Hope she's doing well 🙏🏻

fresh off the presses

[plushi]

hii!! big fan of the TFP plushies you’re creating, i know the creation of plushies is pretty tedious, but would you ever consider making plushies of other series, like TFA considering how cats the TFP ones were funded?

I'm already drawing out plans for more TFP and now you're putting TFA plush thoughts in my head......😤💭

4 & 14 for the end of year asks!

4. Movie of the year?

i answered this previously~ suddenly blanking on every other movie i've seen this year, lmao. the new spideyverse one way back in summer is probably a close second!

14. Favourite book you read this year?

the murderbot diaries entire series, tbh! i finally renewed my library card this year and discovered i could check out e-books and binge-read it. 10/10 recommend, made me believe in kindness again

end of year asks :D

[theysangastheyslew]

Hiiiii I just wanted to say I love your Hange lives AU so much and look forward to each time you post about it 😍 Will their baby and the goats make another appearance soon?

Awww thank you nonny 🥺🥺🥺

I'm so happy you've been enjoying it. It's been therapeutic for me to work on, and I'm glad it's brought a little happiness to you as well ❤️

Lately I've been trying to go in somewhat chronological order (I wasn't before so I reallly need to go back and number the works so the timeline makes more sense 🫠) so yes, the goats and little bby Bean will be appearing, but there's still a couple more things I want to show first. I've always been slow at drawing so I appreciate the patience!

But as a treat here's a lil peek at an idea I'm tossing around for a little further down the line :3

[crossbackpoke-check]

the deweys photos are from this video: https://youtu.be/5xTwJho44ao?si=bPw8MZZ327lCogVZ aren’t they just everything

kissing you and the minnesota wild official media team (with consent) full on the mouth, THANK YOU THIS VIDEO IS EVERYTHING 🥰🥰 i have seen pieces of it before i think (connor petting a shark 🥹) but the entire video start to finish is such a delight, 10/10 would recommend

[midnightfire830]

I wanna see a meeting between Kobie and Nix

(And also I miss seeing Kobie I feel bad about asking about his old job 😥)

They’d be pretty chill, both being super introverted. They’d enjoy sipping some coffee in silence.

And yeah. I’ve been neglecting Kobie huh?

Thanks for the ask!
