you have requested asks so here is a very silly thought. ik everyone hcs that Mihawk has great eyesight because of the ‘hawkeyes’ epithet but consider:
Mihawk was originally called hawkeyes because of the colour of his eyes. He is actually quite short sighted but he REFUSES to admit it - glasses do not fit his Aesthetic™️ and he’s not about to Admit Weakness now everyone thinks he’s got really good vision. His Haki is good enough that he’s getting away with it but Shanks has his suspicions
this is so fucking cute oh my god. Imagine that the way shanks starts figuring it out is early morning Mihawk lets down his guard and doesn’t use haki and starts squinting at everything. Shanks eventually gets glasses under the pretext that “oh Mihawk I need glasses I’m getting old why don’t you try them on sweetheart—“
mihawk: I’m not falling for that red
shanks: alright but sweetheart squinting must be giving you headaches. Mihawk, beginning to get convinced:
shanks: Also it’s so funny you can’t see when you’re called Hawkeyes
Mihawk: *throws the glasses overboard*

hey, what happened to the left believing in second chances? what happened to the belief that if somebody's tangibly doing better, they deserve that chance? you guys realise how common problematic beliefs were when the internet was younger? like, when gamergate was a thing? not that long ago? you guys realise most people on the internet are not from the same moral background as you? you guys realise keeping people out who have changed their beliefs, is only going to discourage more people from doing better? are you guys crazy? why are y'all bringing moral purity into this? it's a powerful thing to recognise things you've been taught were wrong & to then move away from it, especially when you're in a community around it either irl or online. being in a community is such a powerful force in most people's lives. not everyone had the perfect background & not everyone had access to being as educated on social issues as you did. it's fine to personally not forgive someone's problematic history & not interact with them, but to actively exclude them from the cause? get off your high horse, you're harming the movement by gatekeeping it to those with a perfect moral background.

kishimoto might have been a mostly bad writer but he kinda went off with Breaking The Cycle as an overarching theme of the whole series
#naruto#the cycle of war and revenge that the shinobi world is trapped in from the small conflicts like chiyo’s instant hatred of kakashi for his#dad killing her kid to nagato’s whole character arc about war hurting him so and leading him to greater acts of violence#the tsuchikage and the old kages being cold military leaders at the beginning and then learning to set aside decades old grudges to look to#the future instead.#SASUKE’S WHOLE CHARACTER. GOD. need i say more.#yes i will. sasuke beginning his character arc as an avenger who will continue the cycle of violence by killing his brother. and then#turning his hatred on danzo and konoha once he sees his brother as a victim. he is naruto’s direct foil as naruto forgives everyone who’s#ever hurt him because he so desperately wants to end the cycle of hatred borne from war (JIRAIYA’S DREAM. DONT LOOK AT ME)#don’t even get me fucking STARTED on indra and asura and the uchihas and the senju and madara and hashirama.#two brothers who fought and their descendents and incarnations are fated to be locked in conflict. an endless cycle of war and violence#between yin and yang sun and moon. and because kishimoto went OFF with VOTE2 symbolism:#hashirama and madara coming so close to ending that cycle but in the end they fought to the death and their statues are built across the#waterfall from each other (the way they had been across the river from each other as kids) doing the hand sign for the beginning of kumite#and sasuke and naruto starting VOTE2 across from each other the way hashirama and madara were and ending the fight in the middle of the#river on top of the broken off hands of the statues performing the seal of reconciliation at the end of a kumite signalling the end of the#cycle of fate they were trapped in.#SOMETHIGN SOMETHING WE ARE TRAPPED IN MEANINGS THAT CIRCULATE LIKE BLOOD FR…………#ALSO the bijuu and humans being trapped in the cycle of hate and fear of each other. yeah. kishimoto really went off with The Themes here#nart.txt

Psst! Pookie, what does good ‘ol’ Nikolai think of Marlene since he took Annika’s place as Bell? 👁️👄👁️
(In this AU, Annika’s only eleven during the events of the campaign, and Nikolai didn’t get into organized crime, instead he took it a step further and joined an international terrorist organization 💀)
If you’d wanna know how not-brainwashed Nikolai think about Marlene, let me know
Imma start this off with one thing: if you thought Annika was bad, her dad’s ten times worse. The Voronovs aren’t called (at least in my mind) “The Legacy of Brutality” for no reason. ‘ol Nikolai’s a former Spetsnaz operator who thought the Geneva Convention was a checklist.
Dudebro’s a war criminal. A wanted war criminal. Everyone; MI6, CIA, BND, even fucking France wants him dead or locked up with the key thrown away. Annika was just a local threat; her dad was Mr. Worldwide.
Unlike Annika, Nikolai is very meticulous with how he kills people. He takes his time; scouts out an area, before wiping everyone out swiftly, not leaving a trace. None of that reckless bullshit we get with our girl; he kept things clean.
Despite being a vile, terrible monster, Nikolai’s soft. In this AU, (the good dad AU 👍) he made damn sure Annika wouldn’t live in fear. He kept her blissfully ignorant to any of the shit he was involved in. Nowhere near the perfect father, but he got the job done.
This is the part you’ve been waiting for 💀
However, during his time as Bell, he doesn’t remember any of that. When Nikolai, known as Daniel Korvach, saw Marlene for the first time, she seemed familiar in a way he couldn’t place. When ‘Daniel’ tried to string it together, he’d hallucinate. Park and Adler just attributed it to his trauma from Vietnam. He’d hear laughter, crying, voices in a language he couldn’t pinpoint.
She’d overwhelm him— confuse him. ‘Daniel’ would connect Marlene to his trauma, which gets him aggravated whenever he’s in the same room as her. Not necessarily directed at her, but ‘Daniel’ would be more on edge when he feels her presence.
‘Daniel’ is defensive of Marlene, but simultaneously doesn’t want to be anywhere near her. Like if Adler’s getting too violent with her, he’d step in like “C’mon, she’s a kid.” But if Marlene even THINKS about talking directly to him, he gives her the coldest shoulder known to mankind 🧍‍♂️
“Piss off. I’m busy.”
“Take a hint.”
“Common decency, Monroe. I don’t want to be around you unless I absolutely have to. Don’t know why you’re important to those two anyway. Frankly, I also don’t care.”
Overall, ‘Daniel’ wouldn’t particularly like Marlene, but still be quite subconsciously protective of her.

My take on that one Bad Ending timeline
Sharing my brain rot with the void and 10ish people in this tag about that main alternative timeline that was touched on in Shadow of War, the one where basically everyone dead and started Malgor’s time loop adventure. 
So, the only events we got from that timeline that directly contribute to it ending were Gravelyn and Victoria’s death (and Drakath trying to get us to fight back or whatever, it not important right now). While it’s was sad and tragic and all that jazz, I honestly don’t think their death were the only things to push the Hero into despair. Like it wasn’t the first time someone we knew/cared died, probably the closest people to us dying but still (could be wrong about this, I did skipped a good bit of the Queen of Monster saga and still need to go back). And there was an extend, unaccounted for period of time between their death and the timeline ending, so anything could have happened. 
The question is what could have happened so bad to made the Hero to just give up? 
Second Elemental Champion War
Sure, most of the known champions are Good/Neutral aligned. Doing their own thing that may or may not relate to their respective elemental plane, just living their best life and vibing. Hell, a few don’t even know they’re Champions at the time of the Queen of Monsters’ death. I doubt any of them would have woken up one day and said “hey, killing some of the other champions who maybe or may not be friends of mine to increase mine and my elemental plane’s power sound like a great idea”. At least in the days following the Hero’s disappearance, they probably had better things to worry about than power. 
Gravelyn was the only one who was on the side of Evil and had the means to wage that kind of war if she wanted to, and she’s the first person to die. 
So who started it then?
Oh I don’t know. Probably the guy who focused on the ruler of Shadowscythe being the Champion of Light, in a position of leadership and influence to wage a war for the sake of Good, and already caused the death of one of her dead wife’s sister. 
Brentan 
Giant leap, probably, but hear me out. 
This scenario was brought up in the  Champion of Darkness questline, the what if a normal person killed a Champion and took their position (Idk if this got recon, but for the sake of this brain rot, it has not). So it is possible for Brentan to become the Champion of Light via being the one to kill Gravelyn. I don’t think he would kill her with in mind, since it doubtful that that info would be told to the leaders of the Alliance and became a closely guarded secret between those who initially learned it (I feel like this info is on the same level as the Hero being literal god). He probably viewed it as ridding Lore of an evil, and becoming the Champion of Light was a surprise. 
Obviously, this would happen during Gravelyn’s attack on Swordhaven. Maybe her and Victoria are having a duel and are avoiding dealing a deceive blow to the other, so he goes for it and actually manage to almost kill Gravelyn. Also, entirely possible that Brentan had a spell or weapon crafted to combat Gravelyn’s affinity to Light, like how he used Infernal weapons against the Infernal invasion and the net/spell Warlic made to ground Drakath. So while Victoria is either freak out on him for just killing her last reminding family member or just shutting down and the Hero is trying to save a dying Gravelyn, he’s celebrating his victory against Shadowscythe. 
Then boom, Champion of Light Brentan, and this is when things start going downhill fast.
There a few group in Lore that view Light as pure good and everything else as evil (ie the new Temple of Light, Higher Light elementals like Astero, the inquisition from that one Hollowborn questline) that I’m sure would be thrill to have a Good aligned Champion of Light that support their causes of ridding Lore of evil and monsters. I’m also pretty sure this could be why Brentan had Victoria executed and not literally anything else less extreme, these groups most likely putting the idea that she would want revenge for Gravelyn’s death since they were sisters and that he need to act quick and decisive for all that was good. No idea about Lynaria being considered the second coming of the Queen of Monsters tho since she was so revered for being the Champion of Light. Probably just propaganda/rumors from getting exaggerated and used to get Brentan to act quicker. I don’t think he would have wanted to execute Victoria straight off the bat, maybe just imprison her, but got pressured into it and started believing it was for the best for the kingdom somewhere along the line.
Of course, this would not have been received well by the other Champions, the Hero, friends of Victoria, and probably several other leaders in the Alliance. (Did you see the amount of side eye he got in the “Your Hero” cutscene when he was bashing Victoria’s leadership so far? like bitch you couldnt have done better) I can see them trying to talk sense into him about the execute, but most likely got the same response he gave the Hero about it, that it would be treason and they would be treated the enemy to Good if they tried to interfere (well in the Hero’s case, it was straight to being consider the enemy for even thinking about it but they would have been the biggest threat, but I’ll get back to that in a different part). 
Would they try to do something to save Victoria? Absolutely, but what would it be? 
I say there’s two ways this would play out, either all out war right off the bat or an attempted prison break to get Victoria to safety before dealing with Brentan. Honestly I say the latter is more interesting and most likely since no one would want a war with Swordhaven yet and Victoria’s niche was her spy network, and I’m sure some of her spies would already be working on getting her out way before being imprisoned.
Yet will that much support from her friends and allies, Victoria still get executed. Why? 
Maybe after Gravelyn’s death, the weight of everything just crushed on her. She wasn’t suppose to inherit the throne, that was Brittany’s right that she never got to claim. She was forced to leave Tara behind during the Infernal invasion, knowing that her sister would be brutally murdered and that she couldn’t protected her. She had to watch her dad slowly die due to his corruption then destroy the city he loved and kill his daughter. She was put in the position that she had to go against her brother in law for the throne, someone who was whole heartedly welcome into her family. She had to fight her last reminding family member the sack of her kingdom and had to watch her get mortally wounded and die. Victoria was going to be buckle under all of that at some point sooner or later, she couldn’t stay strong forever. 
Unfortunately it was now.
In the aftermath of Gravelyn’s invasion and death, I think Victoria just shut down and gave up. So when the rescue party shows up to save her from her impending doom, she would refuse to leave and accept her fate. At this point, she probably would fully believe the deaths of Gravelyn and Tara, plus the suffering of her people since taking the throne were due to her own failures as a ruler and accepted her death. 
Which would leave Brentan unchallenged as king of Swordhaven and in change of the forces of Good. 
This is where the war actually starts. 
Tbc later when i have the time to continue writing the rest

this also goes for latinos, asians, visibly disabled people, visibly queer people, folks with an audible foreign accents, and petite people. i know that last one doesn't get a lot of attention, but trust me, the amount of sexual harassment cops think they can get away with if you're 5'4" or under is fucking insane.
and yes, i'm aware that's grown the list to "pretty much everybody". that's because while they're worst to blacks, indigenous, and visibly trans folk, the cops are nobody's friend. they can and will harass basically anyone they have even the slightest prejudice again, and how much is common against who can vary by location. and i'm gonna emphasize that Disabled part again, because being white does not save you from being visibly autistic, and i have seen more than once a tragedy befall a young child for disabled behavior. we, as a community, need to watch out for eachother. ALL of eachother. trust the cops with no one, and show the fuck up for anyone who might need it. if we can create a culture where the cops expect to be watched at any public stop, we are gonna save our communities a lot of grief. get used to thinking of everyone you see as a part of your community. black people are part of your town. muslims are part of your town. natives are part of your town. jews, latinos, greeks, autistics, asians, people in wheelchairs, local prostitutes, local drug addicts, the kids who look like they "might be in a gang", every single person you see is a part of YOUR town and YOUR community. they are not outsiders. they are not extras. they are not blights, or problems, or something in the peripheral to otherwise not be thought of. even someone you have a personal god damn grudge against, if there's a cop talking to them, you record that shit. but do not take "everyone" as an excuse to ignore black people; they hold priority. they are a part of everyone, and they are some of the most at risk. SHOW UP.

Full moon with your werewolf bf except you're the one being chained up. You aren't exactly sure how you convinced your bf to do it. He had always made sure to keep himself chained in the cellar during that time of the month. But after your incessant begging he had given in. Under this one condition.
You have to be chained up in his place. When asked why he had told you the intensity of his full form may frighten you but to stay calm. He tells you that as soon as he's caught onto your scent he won't be able to let you go and running will only make him all the more quicker to mount you. You didn't know what you were getting into.
Now as your wrists dig into the cold metal... you know. And you want more.
The unsympathetic chains dig into your wrists as your fully turned bf fucks into you with abandon, his claws piercing your skin as your greedy hole sucks his cock back in with every thrust.
As your werewolf bf plows you into another sweeping orgasm, your back arches, a loud groan echoing off the cobblestone walls. Pain mixing in with the pleasure as your pussy weeps, milking your bfs cock and trying to push him out at the same time as he cums right after you.
Your cunt is so full his release spills out of you and splashes against the concrete floor. Eyes squeezing shut, your mind and body war against each other. Though body quickly wins out.
“Ah— dammit! I need a break. Baby, please, I need a break,” you beg, your body aching yet also wanting more. The need for rest briefly overpowers your never-ending craving.
But your werewolf bf merely growls ferociously, jaw snapping in his displeasure. Leaning his giant form over you, he cages you in, teeth sinking into your neck. Making his claim clear before his hips start snapping back inside of you.
Your cunt flutters helplessly around his girth and you whine, needing even only a moment. With his warm fur covering you, a light sweat begins to glisten across your body. Allowing the grip of the chains on your wrists to loosen just enough.
So when your werewolf bf throws his head back and howls, you take your chance. Slipping out from under him and bolting toward the door. A part of you maybe even wanting it to get to this point. To have your werewolf chase and mount you brutally.
Furious growls vibrate through the quiet night, your bf right on your tail as you run toward the surrounding forest. Just as you’re about to make a break into the trees, werewolf bf pounces, crashing into the hard grass and taking you with him.
His arms curl around you as you both tumble through the thicket. Either to protect you from the harsh wood or making sure you can’t get away again. Probably both.
The moment you two stop, werewolf bf doesn’t hesitate to mount you and slam his cock back deep inside your pussy. Letting you know he’s right where he belongs again. Ready to force orgasm after orgasm out of your tired cunt for the rest of the night.
You see his long claws appear in front of you and you know you’re not getting away again. He’s caught his prey and he isn’t giving it up. A lazy fucked out smile graces your lips as your next orgasm begins to build.
