A fic/hc of reader traveling with will?
Traveling With Wilbur
Wilbur Soot x Gender Neutral Reader
Warnings: None :)
Hello lovely anon! This idea is so cute, especially knowing how much Wilbur himself loves to travel! I’m personally not super big on traveling since I hate flying and I’m disabled, but I’ve seen a decent amount of Europe and several states around me! My favorite places I’ve been are Anaheim, California (VidCon 2023 FTW) and Brighton, England! Seeing the arcade where Tommy got the vlog gun and stumbling into places I recognize from vlogs was otherworldly, and I highly recommend :)
Headcannons below cut!
~Wilbur 100% has one of those maps of the world up on the wall in his office, using color coded pins to show where he’s been and where he wants to go.
~When you two got together and your relationship started getting serious, he’d buy a third and fourth color of pins for you to add, showing where you’d been and where you want to go.
~Matching luggage <3
~One day at the end of your trips just spent in the hotel room, laying in bed and eating the delicious local food, talking about your memories you made together.
~He’d take so many photos of you wherever you two went, pinning them up next to his map of the world.
~Getting tiny little souvenirs at each country or state you visited, like a mug, fridge magnet, or ornament.
~Eating and traveling like locals whenever possible, figuring out complicated public transport systems and sitting in teeny local cafes, sipping on the best coffee you’ve ever tasted.
~Cheap economy red eye flights don’t matter to either of you, since you’ll just fall asleep on each other.
~Walking around in awe, hand in hand, just taking in the new surroundings.
~Arriving home from a trip, just to change the pins on the map and start planning the next one <3

hey ash i've been thinking... how do you think ani x reader met outside of the club? i think that maybe they would bump into each other at the cafe, which r usually go to. r would pay the rest of ani's coffee, since ani would spend her money on perfumes or clothes or similar stuff and is broke af before her paycheck 😭 i think it would be cute
i'm reluctant to put too specific of a headcanon since obv reader shifts with whatever the story needs (e.g. this smut says they met at HQ). with the headcanons that were being batted around where reader was ani's best friend, her irreplaceable person to the point where everyone thinks they're together, they've definitely known each other for years, i'd say 4+. they're the type of friends where they may not have everything in common so everyone questions what they even talk about but they've never gone a day without talking since they met. childhood best friends? unlikely high school friends? a flatmate situation the one time ani tried to move out of brighton beach? 🤔 either way i think they were surprised how well they clicked

The Underground Society of Forbidden Powers
Hey there! I'm Achilles, and this is a blog dedicated to a story that's been rotting in my brain for the past 4-5 years: the USFP! I'll post character sheets, worldbuilding, lore, writing snippets; so on and so forth! I'll give a brief introduction of the story here:
The day of her final grade 10 exam, Iris comes home, planning to go to a bonfire with her friends, only to find her mother dead in a bathtub full of blood. Being incredibly close with her mother, this ruins her to the point where she can't stay in the house because of the unbelievable grief. Her and her father meet with a psychiatrist regularly, both together and separately, and they eventually come to the conclusion that they need to move, so they agree to move back to their birth country of Greece. They still have two pieces of property back home -- a house that they used as a "vacation home", and an abandoned bakery-cafe that Iris' mom always wanted to fix up and open. Iris opens the cafe as a therapeutic way of healing. The first person she hires is her childhood best friend, Orion, who moved back to the village a year before her from England due to reasons he refuses to go into. The story follows the two of them healing from their traumas and using their powers to discover more about the world around them.
Now, you may be wondering, Achilles, where the fuck are the superpowers? And the underground society?
Well.
In this world, most people have powers, and their powers are rated on a scale of 0-1000, 0 being useless, 1000 being like, reality-bending type stuff. Powers above 850 are considered "Forbidden", and with these powers, you either have to be sworn to the government or never use your powers. People above 850 can also be clearly identified by one of three methods: a streak in their hair, a "crater" (think 1970's vaccine), or a birthmark (think a cutie mark, but not as big and noticeable, and no set location). Powers are usually there at birth and manifest later in life, but they can sometimes be caused by Near Death Experiences (NDEs, from here-on out).
Iris can control light and its effects. This means she can change its colours, create small hallucinations and mirages, and give people cold burns (I like to think her light specifically feels cold).
Orion is a conjurer, which in and of itself isn't bad, and lands him at around a 320 on the power scale. However, he's also trying not to be discovered -- not because of the conjuration, but something else entirely. This caused him to move away from Brighton and back to his home town of Karyes, where he reconnects with Iris and they become close again.
The story is a slice of life/coming of age story with elements of action and mystery that pick up more in the second book. It's planned to be a duology, with the first book from Iris' perspective and the second from Orion's.
If you do want to read the story, this blog will contain major spoilers. You've been warned!
I find it hard to sit down and write sometimes, so it'll probably take me a while (especially because I'm in high school), but I hope you're up for the journey alongside me :] Enjoy my goofy little guys!
#artists on tumblr#booklr#book blog#branding#writer#writers on tumblr#writeblr#writing#story#headcanon#collection#power#superpowers#im actually gonna cry i love these guys so much#i really hope i can find someone who shares my passion for them#please just give me a chance#i promise i can make this good#thanks for reading :)#they're my goofy little guys#they're so silly#i love them

Haven't shown Tumblr much of Alice yet so here's a post dedicated to her.
[ CW: A whole LOT of OCxCanon ]
( This will also be a seperate AU so Im gonna tweak some things to fit Alice's story )
Another TW: Blood/gore warning.. The picture is kinda graphic so be cautious please!!
Summary of her story:
☆ Part 1: Photographic memories blurred. ☆
Before his death
Alice Moore is a 23 year old woman who works in a cafe in Brighton. She was originally dating Brian Stells before his passing. They lived in an apartment together after being in a relationship for a few years. She worked in the cafe whilst Brian was searching for a job, as they both were pretty broke at the time. Soon, Brian found a job as a facility caretaker in the newspaper. Brian was quite eager as it paid well, but Alice was more convinced of his safety more than anything. Eventually, Alice reluctantly agreed and let him take the job.
Note about paragraph above: If this was in the actual TWF series, this wouldn't be showcased as such. Perhaps little hints and clues to the information above in the series but it wouldn't be outright said (other than her occupation and name probably. Its also worthy to note Brian is like 24/25 in my AU)
After his death
Fast forward to afterwards, and Alice would be seen pacing up and down her apartment, waiting for Brian. It had been 2 hours since he had been due to come back from work, and there was no sign of him. The phone instantly rang, and it was her best friend Elise. She had questioned if Brian had returned yet, and Alice denied it. Elise apologised and after some silence, Alice expressed her wishes to go to the police. After a bit of debating, Elise reluctantly agreed for Alice to take this to the police. However, before the call ended, Elise muttered one thing;
"Dont do anything stupid, Alice. Please."
Alice nodded and hung up, saying her goodbyes. Before she went, she spotted an old camera laying around that she borrowed from Elise for something. She picked it up and took it with her, as something inside her was screaming for her to take it; that it'd be useful.
She then went to the police station and expressed her concerns with Brian's disappearance. The officer/receptionist nodded and questioned if Alice knew anything about the disappearance. Alice explained what happened and it was clear he thought Alice was joking or telling lies. He joked that if she could find evidence herself, then maybe he'd take the case seriously. However, Alice took this as no joke and then went off to St. Juana's forest, taking a bus.
The search for evidence (The main part of Alice's story)
Alice soon arrived in St Juana's forest (where she vividly remembered seeing the facility was here in the newspaper) on a snowy night with a flashlight in hand; She always kept a mini one in her pocket in case she needed it. It was a long wander to find something, anything that could relate to Brian's death. It was odd, as during her wanders, she spotted a shadow moving from the distance and children laughing. Though, she shrugged it off as her paranoia coming in. However, she spotted something on the ground from a distance. She walked over to check it out. It was...
She stood there... shocked... It couldn't be.
Brian... He's dead.
She couldnt help but fight back the tears - blocking out her feelings - as she used the camera to take a picture. It was then she let her emotions flow. She could hardly believe her eyes as she fell onto her kneed and held him close, sobbing. The one person she trusted and adored more than anything was laying there in the cold, covered in blood with his body mangled and tampered with.
Eventually, as she was sobbing onto his deceased corpse, she heard footsteps from afar. Her automatic reaction was to sprint until she reached a big cliff, with a bunch of fluffy snow covering the bottom. She looked back, panicked.
"What do you want from me?!"
Alice asked in a panicked manner, still unsure of who the two figures were as she glanced back. They seemed to be human figures. As they came into view, it was Chris and Felix. Alice was confused as she clutched the photos she had taken of the scenery to her. Felix beckoned her to give the photos back as they could be used "maliciously", so he states. Alice doesnt budge, and keeps a hard grip onto the photos. As Felix gets closer to try and intimidate her, Chris following along nervously (he does not want to be there, but was likely dragged there). Soon, as Felix backs her into a corner, Alice looks back down at the high cliff, calculating her fall as she looks back up at him. She claims that she'd rather die before giving him what he wants and letting him get away with everything. She falls back off the cliff, both Chris and Felix panicked, racing down to get to where she is.
Alice... she's numb with the snow that covers her. She cant move her leg or arm, and her hands have a off purple/blue colour to them. Alice attempts to fight back the tears and fight the feeling of the excruciating pain, but she struggles. She bursts into tears.
Felix and Chris makes it down there. Without a second thought, Felix snatches the photos from Alice, as much as Alice keeps her grip. She grimaces at both Felix and Chris as they both walk off. Her conciousness is slowly slipping as she mumbles the words;
"I'm so cold. . ."
And then, she's gone. Or so she thinks.
She wakes up in a hospital bed, a few people surrounding her. Nurses, a doctor, Elise, and a strange man with a clipboard. Elise greets her and sobs, claiming that she thought Alice was gone. Alice looks down and spots some body parts wrapped up in bandages. The man with the clipboard exclaims to want to speak to Alice in private, in which those around her lets him. Upon questioning, at the time, as she's questioned, she cant remember anything. Alice panics, as this has never happened to her before. All she can remember is Brian's corpse.
It was weird. Alice was determined she was gone for good. But, it's best to make the best of being given a second chance.
☆ Part 2: Mending The Past For The Future. ☆
Note: Excuse the angel Brian joke doodle 😭 I jus was feeling silly whilst drawing this,,,
I haven't completely fleshed out this part, but through the next few years, Alice is determined to gather evidence to do whatever it takes to take revenge on Felix and what he had done to her. In this part, Elise becomes a facility caretaker in order to help Alice and gather information for her - as Alice's first step is gathering evidence and information about Bon's Burgers/K-9 and their employees' disappearances - but eventually dies herself, which fuels her fury more. At some points, Alice doesnt know why she's been given a second chance at life, as it's filled with agony with those she cares for dropping like flies.
I haven't totally figured out her death and if she dies, but yk. We are so back.
And that's all I have :3 as a little reward for making it to the end, have some Alice/Brian doodles
Most of these are months old but I still like them :3
Alice's main quote from the show becomes "I'm so cold" because aaahh

Can you please do a part 3 to the wilbur sibling fic? It's so good!!!
Hallo, thanks for requesting!
I've been keeping this request for a while, sp it's finally time to get to it ^^
Hoep you enjoy <3
Brother!Reader being jealous of Crimeboy's bond pt. 3
Click here before requesting, please ^^
Reader: Male - He/Him
Part 1 || Part 2
Wilbur had spend an entire month now thinking about what he had done
At first, he must admit, he didn't believe he really did anything wrong
After all, to him it was just a mindless joke
But after hearing his friends point of view, he realized that he really had hurt you
Joke or not, he put your emotions on line and that was not a good thing to do
He spent this entire moth thinking of what he could do to make things better
Obviously he had to apologise first...but would an apology really be enough for you? Would it make you think of him as the kind and available older brother that he once was?
Wilbur decided that the best choice was to talk to someone who was actually close to you, and that happened to be the two people who gave him an earful last time for what he had done
Niki and Jack
And also Tommy was there, because he happened to be in Brighton that day
"I can't belive you still haven't said anything to him..." Niki started, daggers being glared into Wilbur's body
The singer panicked "I promise I'm trying-" he started "I just don't know what to do. I f*cked up and I'm scared of what his reaction will be if I apologise. He for sure hates me...my image in his eyes is totally ruined. What do I do? Help me, please!"
Niki and Jack tried to give Wilbur some advices, from the things he should say to the way he should act from now on.
Tommy, who had been told the situation by Jack, was mad at Wilbur for what he had said. Using him as a way of "making a joke" to his own brother was a low blow.
Heck if even Tommy understood the gravity of the situation, Wilbur really did do something wrong
And yet, no matter how much Wilbur said he was sorry, he was still here talking about what he should do instead of doing it. It's been a month.
"You're a coward, you know that?" Tommy spatted, now him being the one to glare at Wilbur, who was surprised by Tommy's sudden outburst
"You've spent a week trying to understand what you did wrong and a month trying to find a solution, while your brother is out there thinking that you don't care about him at all since you didn't even show a glipse of regret for what you did to him." He huffed angrily, before pulling Wilbur up to his feet and kicking him out of the cafe they had met up at
"Take action for the queen's sake. Show that you care and that you're sorry, instead of worrying for yourself and what you should do to look good in his eyes again. Solve the problem now, not in a year when you remember."
Seeing Tommy being serious and mature had made Wilbur feel very proud of who he had become
But most importantly it had given him the boost and wake up call that he needed to finally approach you
He quickly planned with his parents to visit you the next day, so that they would give the both of you some time alone to straighten things out
When you saw him at home, you just wanted to run in your room and lock yourself in there until he left
You didn't really feel ready to have this conversation, even if a lot of time passed
But Wilbur read your mind and stopped you from doing so
"Listen...I'm sorry" Wilbir spat out quickly, your struggling stopping as you were shocked from what you just heard
"I really shouldn't have said that. I've been so caught up in my career and in what the fans wanted that I pushed you aside and joked with your emotions. It was wrong of me and I should have realized it way sooner...I'm sorry for not coming to you sooner too. I was so nervous and only thinking about myself and my image in your eyes, that I didn't think about how you were feeling throughout this entire argument "
By now you two were sitting, his apology going on longer then you expected, but you just sat there and absorbed all of his words
Honestly, you weren't anticipating him to say anything about the situation. He seemed to be so sure of what he had said, not feeling any type of guilt about it, so an apology was not something you expected
But hearing him apologies and admit his faults had made you a bit happy, because to you it meant that he really did care
Obviously you couldn't forgive him completely just yet
But you two decided to start working on rebuilding your brothers-relationship all over again

How to save your brain from being eaten by AI (maybe): keep a sketchbook
At the beginning of May I started bookmarking photographers who are using AI in interesting ways, to add to my Instagram collection of digital art references (#artdirectionneversleeps). Later that month I did my own first experiments using NightCafe to visualise ideas for a client. It was entertaining and frustrating, partly because of my lack of prompt skills, and partly because the "styles" you could apply to your "artwork" looked exactly like bad fantasy art from the 1980s.
However, by June, photographers I was working with were using Midjourney to conceptualise setups – still with a bit of that tacky SciFi book cover feel, but it was proving genuinely useful to talk about how sets might be designed, for instance. By July, I was seeing film directors use AI for pitching storyboards, and my lovely students at Condé Nast College of Fashion and Design using it for presentation mock-ups.
That's just three months. From AI being a "what?" to becoming a completely logical, natural part of the image-making process, for at least some parts of the creative industries. The speed of change is head-spinning. And this is just the beginning.
Meanwhile, also in May, I was teaching at CNC on a really fun module about Brand Identity Design. Part of this involved the students keeping a sketchbook, to explore and develop their ideas. One of my lectures was about WHY people keep sketchbooks, and I illustrated several points with quotes from designers, architects and artists, and pages from my own sketchbooks from waaaaay back in the day.
Because WBITD, when I was an art student, I kept sketchbooks constantly. Not only was it a course requirement, for me it was also a way to stave off boredom and depression: it's hard to think negative thoughts when your brain is absorbed in analysing the curves of a hand or a coffee cup or a flower. When my best friend and I used to Interrail around Italy, I would draw our cafe tables and the local streets, and we'd get rewarded with extra drinks and desserts by kindly waiters.
Somewhere around the mid 90s I gave up sketching, partly because life got more hectic, and partly because smartphones got invented. When Emma and I started the BID course this summer, it had been a very long time indeed since I cracked open a sketchbook. And, erm, even though I did buy one – a lovely, spiral-bound, hard covered book with wonderful heavyweight paper, from Seawhite of Brighton – it took me another few months to start using it.
Two things pushed me into finally starting: firstly, it's #drawugst and I thought I should try a drawing a day, every day, during August. I started on Tuesday, August 1st, with a graphite pencil sketch of my aloe plant. I did it in semi-darkness, around 9pm, and my hand-eye coordination felt a but rusty, but following the heavy curves of the plant was satisfying.
On Wednesday I drew fallen agapanthus blossoms, playing with coloured marker pens (of which I have a ridiculously huge collection, almost never used). This was a reminder of the importance of not trying to control the end result while you're sketching. Because you just can't.
Yesterday evening I scribbled our messy after-dinner table. I used the graphite pencil, a Koh-I-Noor Hardtmuth charcoal pencil, and an Edding 1225 calligraphy pen – and blackberries. The fruit, not the redundant communication device. Blackberry juice is a fabulous art material – it gives this beautiful purple inky result, and it's such a pleasure to smear all over the paper. I'd picked the berries earlier this evening on Wormwood Scrubs, just to add to the satisfaction of the whole experience. (And this morning I made almond milk smoothies with the rest of them.)
The other thing which made me finally restart a sketchbook after all this time is AI. I can see that it is just going to get bigger, more powerful, and more indispensable in my industry. I'm not going to worry about losing my job to a bot (I don't have "a job", anyhow), but I am concerned about what it will do to our creativity.
When you use one tool extensively it starts to train your brain, you develop habits and shortcuts. It's one thing to have tricks for making the most of Photoshop, or to have routines when you set up an InDesign document. But when you're trying to generate ideas you need to keep an open mind. To look at things from different angles. To look again, look harder. Try wacky ideas. Draw with your food. Stick things onto the pages. Doodle. Take a line for a walk. Write notes to self. Be creative. Be messy. Be human.

Animal Therapy
Have you been feeling lonely, slightly depressed or anxious? Let me tell you, maybe you are not. You are just missing a pet!
Owning a pet can actually be a highly effective method of therapy, known as pet or animal therapy. No matter the age you are or difficulty you are having, animal therapy can be quite helpful for you.
This type of therapy has become increasingly popular in recent years, and is now widely used in hospitals, schools or age care facilitations. With the rise of COVID-19, the pet ownership increased significantly.
Pets are known to form a bond with humans, beneficial for both parties. They are known to reduce stress, anxiety and depression. They also provide a sense of unconditional love and support, forming a rare companionship with the owner that can boost their social confidence, quiet helpful for people who feel isolated or are struggling with loneliness. Here are some ways you can benefit from the presence of animals and where to find pets in Melbourne:
One of the most popular forms of animal therapy is use of dogs. Dogs are highly social, loyal and affectionate animals, and there are several studies that document the bond they can create with human, which got them the title of ‘human’s best friend’. Due to their level of intelligence and obedience, dogs can be trained to provide a variety of support services, such as helping people with mobility issues or providing emotional support for people with mental health disorder. If you are thinking of adopting a dog, have a look at some of the most popular Australian websites such as Rescue Pets or Savour Life. If you are not in the position to adopt a dog right now, I have a life hack for you. Go in a dog beach (Port Melbourne, St. Kilda, Elwood, Brighton) and enjoy not only a lovely walk by the beach, but also the presence of so many lovely dogs, that are having zoomies on their beach day! Another option would be to book a class of puppy yoga in Springvale or visit dog cafes and enjoy their company!
Another popular form of pet therapy is the presence of a horse, known to help individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder, also called equine therapy. There are many placed around Melbourne that offer classes to learn how to ride horses or ponies, such as Woodlands Trail Riding in Greenvale, The Equine Club in Dromana, Alan Smallacombe Trail Rides in Dandenong Ranges, and not only. Here is the link to some of the most popular horse rides in Melbourne.
Other pets that are used in therapy are cats, birds or even fish. If you love cats, you should check out the famous cat café in CBD before it closes down in June, or visit the Melbourne/Werribee Zoo and the Sealife Aquarium to see other beautiful animals.
To conclude, pet therapy can be quite a solution for your mental health. We know that life can get overwhelming and lonely at times, but there is nothing a pet cannot fix for you. Here are some doggo pictures that I took around Melbourne to make the perfect conclusion for this blog!

Weekend Getaways from London
London is a one-stop destination offering endless things to experience, explore, and admire, but you might still require a break from the bustling city glamour. Well, the UK tourist visa not only offers you to explore the famous city but also has tons to venture outside the city. Within a few hours, you will have a plethora of weekend getaway options, whether you prefer a car, bike, or train.
With a perfect plan to enjoy the best weekend, we have picked the top places for weekend getaways from London.
Oxford
The city of dreaming spires, Oxford, is home to some of the world's most famous universities and a perfect weekend getaway destination from London, as you don’t just have to be a student to admire its charms. With every brick holding ancient history, the city is a wonderful cultural hub, giving you plenty of great places to go, eat, and drink.
No matter what age you are, it’s always worth exploring the history of Oxford University, including its colleges and other attractions such as the Ashmolean, the Pitt Rivers Museum, and the Bodleian Library, while wandering through the Port Meadow before stopping for some great burgers. Buy some great souvenirs and other items in the covered market, and if the weather is on your side, a picnic and punting excursion is a must.
The Cotswolds
The absolute definition of the English Countryside, The Cotswolds would pop up without any need for further thought. Ancient villages, shingle-roofed cottages, and miles of lush rolling grass where there is no shortage of sheep. The Cotswolds is a serene natural beauty to behold, making it one of the best weekend getaway locations from London.
With each region having its own charm, for a short weekend, head to Gloucestershire, packed with honey-coloured stone cottages and relaxing scenery. Enjoy the day at Westonbirt Arboretum, walk along the gazing cattle, take some snaps, or take clay pigeon shooting lessons at the Cotswolds Clay Club.
Brighton
This liveliest beachfront city on the southern coast of England is just an hour and 40 minutes from London. Brighton is a vibrant place to spend holidays, and as the unofficial LGBTQ capital of the United Kingdom, the city’s year-round festive vibes make it the perfect fit for fun day trips from London.
Explore the vintage stores and cute cafes of the Lanes, wander around the strolls and arty Boutiques, and in the evening, head over to Brighton’s most lively bars, pubs and clubs. Enjoy a relaxing walk along the Seven Sisters, a series of the famous Chalk Cliffs.
The Lake District
If outdoor adventure is your ultimate goal for this weekend, the Lake District is thriving with more than 900 miles of wilderness scattered with chocolate box villages. The site is perfect to visit at any given time, packed with a picturesque patchwork of lakes, woodlands, and lush valleys.
The Lake District is great for getting outdoors-hiking around the hills, paddling across the lakes, and exploring the country lanes. If the weather is great, hike up on Kendal Mint Cake and climb Scafell Pike-the highest peak in England. Visit the world of Beatrix Potter while you enjoy some yummy snacks in the Grasmere Gingerbread Shop.
Cornwall
The southern tip of England is one of the country’s most popular beach weekend trips from London. Cornwall is worth the hype to enjoy a weekend along the breathtaking coastlines along 300 miles of dunes.
The sea, sand, and sun are always at the top of the list, but adventure activities and history aren't far behind, with all of them venturing through cliffs, mediaeval harbours, and oak-forested creeks. Enjoy dipping with basking sharks and seals before walking down stepping-stone cliffs to experience tide pools, surfing, and body boarding.
From picturesque streets to seaside towns, London's outskirts have a lot more to offer. Pack your bags, pick a place, and get going for the best unwinding sessions.
