#but I don't wanna jinx myself so I'll stop there

Before act 3 of Arcane comes out I just wanna voice a couple thoughts and theories

1) I've been a Jayce defender since season one, it's hard but honest work. I need him to lock the fuck in and get his shit together. No matter the outcome of the show I'll still defend this man, although he does make it very hard.

2) Viktor and Mel are my faves if anything happens to them I will cry

3) VIKTOR AND MEL ARE PERFECT AND DO NO WRONG

4) I genuinely think that Jayce had a reason for doing what he did. Like he saw something in the arcane, I think it's a time loop or something of the sort. I think that he saw what the hexcore would turn Viktor into, a monster of a man. And that Jayce keeps trying to stop it in the time loop. I mean he's called The Defender of Tomorrow in Leauge for a reason right?

5) I am a Viktor supporter through and through.

5) EKKO THE BOY SAVIOR THE ICON MY GLORIOUS KING. HE ABOUT TO FIX SHIT FOR REAL.

6) Caitlyn and Vi are about to face the full aftermath of their divorce era in arc 1 and Im so ready to see it.

7) I think Jinx is gonna sacrifice herself, I hope not, but if Isha actually did die in the last ep, I feel like Jinx is gonna have the crash out of a century ( rightfully so) I don't think anyone is gonna get a happy ending but my girl Jinx is most likely to get screwed over. If she dies I will crash out

I'm genuinely so excited, this act is gonna be insane and I know the fandom and myself will be in shambles after it drops. I feel like this season has just been peak storytelling so far and I'm so excited to see what happens next .

Update:

Hey, it's been awhile since I updated y'all!

There was one ask I got a blue moon ago about Magic Between the Moon & Sky, and I will sadly report that I do not see myself updating that series for the foreseeable future. I didn't want to be one of those authors who make a 100 oneshot series then stop, but I am just not a fan of TDP at the moment so it's hard to really find the passion to write for a fandom I'm not in anymore.

I also know a good many of you are wondering about Loyalty & Light but I can confidently say that there is nothing solid yet. Another batch of twenty chapters is a lot for me and it will take a long while for it to get up and kicking. But I am still working at it. Don't be afraid to keep asking about it or to send asks! The comments I've been getting are a great inspiration!

Meanwhile, for The Most Undoing Thing, the final two chaps are coming! Regardless of season 2, this does not change the development of the fic at all. TMUT was always set in a post-season 1 only AU formula. I hoped to finish it before season 2, but alas, I did not. That said, I am immensely appreciative of the surge of love and attention toward TMUT. I guess a lot of people are aching for some Mama Jinx after Isha, huh? ( >ヮ<).

So when's TMUT coming out? Well here's a rundown:

Arcane/Legends of Runeterra, Mama Jinx AU, multi-chapter story (Title: "The Most Undoing Thing"). Chapter 19 December 18th, 2024.

The Owl House, Lealtad Noceda big sister/beta sister AU, multi-chapter story (Title: "Loyalty & Light"). Still in development!

The Owl House & The Ghost and Molly McGee crossover, crossover AU, multi-chapter story (Title: "The Light and Molly McGee"). Still in development!

Halloween fics: yeah I got delayed, so I'm gonna aim for 2025 Halloween now hopefully...

Once again, all is subject to change of course. Between uni, my newfound interest with D&D, and personal matters, it's hard to find time to write. But I still wanna write! I love writing fics and I miss posting 'em. Fall sem is done and I am hyped to write. As always, if you're interested in these fics, I have a few asks or posts about them that you can find via tags!

In other news, I will officially state that I am now ceasing use of FFN or Fanfiction.Net. This doesn't mean I'll delete my account and all stories up there, but for the future, I will not crosspost anymore fanfics on FFN. With all the issues it's had over the years, and a new wave of scam mail, I'm just tired of it. I'm sad too, because I'm aware of the recent traction I've been getting on there as well, but I'm afraid I'm just too tired of it.

So, I'm only using Ao3 from here on out. Sorry to all you FFN users, but I hope you can find the leniency to at least follow my stories on Ao3!

By the way, tags with “bleh update” keep track of all incoming fic posts! And check out my Fandom Masterlist to see what I’m into! Also Here’s all my Fanfics!

That’s all for now. Stay safe and take care all!

Until next post,

[brainrotheartrot]

hi hi yes hello,, first off i just wanna say i LOVE your art.

second, this is kinda weird but i just joined the arcane fandom not too long ago, & it was literally only because i saw vijinx art. like all of my mutuals are into arcane & i never bothered to get into it UNTIL i saw fanart of vijinx a few months ago. something abt it just intrigued me. i honestly never cared for caitvi.

however i wouldn’t consider myself a pro shipper, in fact i’d deny that. this is the first time i’ve enjoyed anything like this & i have no idea why. however i do like hardcore dynamics, for example, ellie/abby from tlou. but of course something like vi/jinx is more “extreme”. well in my opinion.

i’m coming to you because i’ve been stalking a lot of vijinx shippers and i really admire their content, especially yours. it’s such a guilty pleasure of mine. but i’m too scared to interact with anyone, even on an alt. so i just decided to stay anonymous.

i was just wondering if you ever felt guilty the first time you started shipping them? i’d honestly envy you if you haven’t. and how & why did you start shipping them? feel free to rant abt them for as long as you’d like.

i’ve been hearing stuff abt how they weren’t always sisters, like in the early league days. i wish it just stayed that way because it bothers me to not be able to talk abt my favorite ships publicly without being ridiculed for it. but a fucked up part of me is glad that they became sisters. holds more weight, you know. i understand the appeal entirely.

i’ve also even been secretly drawing them but i definitely do not have the balls to post them anywhere😭

ANYWAY, i’m yapping, but just let me know anything about your experience with them, how you view them n stuff. and if you have any advice to give me or any other information pls feel free. thank u so much

ps. i’m totally reading ur fic in a bit

Aww, hey there anon! Thanks for reaching out, always nice to meet another ViJinx fan :) I'm glad you enjoy my art, and I hope you'll like my fic as well! (Also, if you'd like to send me your art privately, I totally promise not to show anybody. <3)

I got a little rambly in my answer there, so I'll put it under the cut.

Honestly, I only call myself a 'proshipper' because this is what modern fandom lingo dictates. I don't really gel with a lot of elements of 'proshipdom', if you will -- there seems to be some broad agreement that if you like Some messed up aspects in your fiction, you must like All of them. And I really don't! I ship ViJinx because I love their specific dynamic, not just because I'm hot for every taboo topic by default. I probably would've shipped them just as much if the show had just made them close childhood friends, for example. But I also have no issue with fictional incest ships, I think they can be fun and juicy.

Like you, I've always been really drawn to problematic and intense lesbian relationships. I like CaitVi plenty, and I think they're going to get a lot messier in S2, which I'm excited for. But ViJinx is just an insanely compelling dynamic. I love the toxic codependent yuri shit. I love the tenderness and the violence, their shared past that now feels completely inaccessible to them both, Jinx's obsessiveness, Vi refusing to give up the image of Powder she's clung on to for years... man, this shit just rocks, okay. I'm not gonna pretend that it doesn't.

I've never felt any guilt about shipping ViJinx, tbh. I'm a fandom oldbie, by which I mean I was around before the morality police took over, and everyone understood we were just here to mash Barbies and have a good time. I've shipped several incest pairings before this, and I've always had a blast doing it. And so help me god, I don't intend to stop now, even if my Twitter blocklist is twenty miles long. I just immediately cut out anyone who tries to start shit, and chill with my fellow weirdos. It's a pretty small circle, but it's a nice time!

If you do decide to make an alt at some point, I recommend doing so on Twitter, as I've been able to find more active ViJinx shippers there. I could rec you some nice people to follow. :) Thanks for reaching out!

Small update!

I don't wanna jinx it but I think I may be fiiiiiiiinally coming out of my funk/art block! I've been thinking up new comics and responses to some of the questions in my inbox recently... I hope to get some things doodled again! The comics might get looser/more sketchy however - mostly to help stop the intimidation I currently feel over them akfjgakdfjg why must imposter syndrome hurt us so?

I HAVE been doodling on off over the last month, all on paper. Maybe I'll try to find my old scanner and get proper scans of them and not my crappy phone photos XD

To everyone who sent an ask over the last few months: THANK YOU FOR YOUR PAITENCE!!! I promise to get them answered one way or another!! I might end up answering at least one or two myself i.e. no comic but I do have comic ideas for many of them.

BKDK endgame theory

Another highly self-indulgent theory on how bkdk's gonna be endgame canonically

Disclaimer: Since I don't wanna jinx it or feel embarrassed for being so brazen about this mere silly thought of mine, I'll just keep this private until if things similar to what I've predicted became true. Otherwise, this will only be for my eyes alone. - edited 6 Nov 2023

Fuck all of that guess I'm just gonna put it out there and let y'all have fun as I embarrass myself. Just think it's all for lolz if none of these happen, at least I have fun writing to indulge my fantasy - edited 8 Nov 2023

So, what I think is that since hori's gonna keep giving us surprises and +u up his own game, my guess is that to clearly and subtly lock the pair without making it feel forced is to make bkdk make a promise to each other that hinted a lifelong warrant. Refer this to what toga said in her arc

It's not exactly a love confession, but what'll you feel if someone promise to dedicate their whole life in making you feel happiness, loved? I think that's love disguise in a glass case

So, how's this gonna parallel to our favourite dorks who're both so emotionally constipated and verbally poor at confessing?

Me thinks that, apparently when the boys were pushed to the extremes -- to the moment when there's literally no time affordable to think of anything else besides the most important thing they hold in their life, that the moment their body has to move on their own by instincts -- we'll finally get to see, bright as day, where their true feelings lay.

As far as we've seen, it has been clearly revealed (except for those who're illiterate or in a dilemma of spiralling denial) that on katsuki's side, Izuku's the one constantly haunting his head for the rest of his 10+ years. He'd jump into battle with him, rush in front of him to avert the blow, fight in pain to stay relevant in izuku's battle -- to the point of fighting to his death to protect his seniors and to yet remain as izuku's image of victory... all these, to atone his mistakes in mistreating Izuku.

Throughout his character growth, Katsuki had been to the extremes. What are the most extreme situations if not death itself?

After that, however, we see katsuki came back with his heart fully open (pun definitely not intended!), feelings more outwardly shown, saying thanks sincerely without hiding behind his explosive demeanor, smiling straightforwardly at his favourite idol AM 🥺

Katsuki had met his breaking point, met death itself, and came back a new man. A man who wanted to change before everything was too late. As soon as he woke up, he didn't waste time hesitating to allow further regrets, showing gratitude and humility whole-heartedly in any instant he should've done like any decent human being would.

Except, there's still one thing he hadn't yet achieve to reach a complete circle for his narrative.

Pre-war, Katsuki's biggest dread, the constant looming threat choking around his neck, was being unable to be honest and sincere to Izuku.

"But wait! He'd already stated his apology, he has no regrets left!"

Well, if you have that complain, you're not understanding katsuki well enough. Katsuki is a man of action more than his words. It's quite a common habit for Asians too to put more thoughts into action rather than just spewing beautiful words. And Katsuki, through and through, was an all-in-or-nothing kind of guy. He would never stop at just apologising. If his prior intention for reconciliation was to make himself feel better, then the integrity behind his actions and words was nullified, since that would undoubtedly negate the whole building up of his character's motivation. Moreover, it would become a huge flaw in horikoshi's writing as that would depict him in a "fake hero" spotlight as well as contradict the character's self incentive to be the bestest hero there is. I wouldn't bet hori would decide to ruin his writing like this. In fact, this is such a huge plot point for katsuki's character development that such a small blunder at this point would greatly affect the whole endgame story dynamic to his readers. Not that he'd care if he really did chose that path... I mean 🤷🏻‍♀️😬

Anyway, personality-wise, I'd say Katsuki would be the first person to hate that particular kind of people if he sees one. He'd definitely be disgusted of himself if he were one. That's why I wouldn't bet hori will make that blunder, because hori had been writing him as an incessantly growing character, relentlessly pushing his limits to be the best and always showed his results through visible actions.

So then, back to the point, what were left to do if he had already apologised? What more does he need to do then to further compensate?

:) As I've mentioned earlier, nothing beats the offer of a lifelong compensation, of devoting one's own time and energy willingly to the other as long as they need, or provide care and attention whenever they deserve.

"Wait. What does that even sound like tho? Doesn't that seem like a huge burden to bear??"

For Katsuki however, it's as per usual: all in or nothing!

A promise that hinted lifelong devotion though... That truly sounds like a heavy dedication to carry for the rest of one's life. Doesn't that kind of vow ring any bells? That's the only conclusion I could come to unfortunately. Because Katsuki is a perfectionist, he'll never aim at only atoning his mistakes for a "measly" 10-20 years.

But then, at what kind of situation he would promise a life-binding oath like that out of the ordinary?? Knowing our boys, there's no way they would open their ironclad mouths to say something as romantic as that out of the blue, right??

So here comes my prediction❗❗

📢 warning: take everything below with a grain of salt because at this point it's just me wildin' haha

Evidently, it's been awhile we're constantly warned about Izuku's lack-of-oxygen crisis. He was still fighting sAFO alone while Katsuki came back to focus on AFO himself.

There's a few ways things could go south from there. Afo could very well be dealt by Katsuki now with extra buffs(his new cluster moves), but Izuku was still in an unknown critical state. So while Katsuki busied himself distracting afo, Izuku could somehow got sucked into sAFO's vestige space in a moment's hesitation (or something happened that sucked him into vestige space). We might finally get our vestige space fight between Izuku and tenko & OFA vs AFO, or we could get a heartwarming talk no jutsu (as well as some sprinkle of action fights) between Izuku and Tenko. And all of these played out without the involvement of Katsuki -- as he's stuck in the physical world and is still dealing a rampaging afo. The dudebros would be happy about this. Finally they had a chance to laugh at us at being clowns for wanting katsuki's involvement in the vestige fight. But remember, hori is a troll through and through. He could troll us, he could troll the dudebros too. It's our temporary loss for not getting Katsuki fight beside izuku in afo vestige space, but we'll have something better later!

Because while all of those happen in the vestige space, apparently Tomura and Izuku's body will be out of it, falling to the ground and seemingly lifeless, out of consciousness to the eye of the people in the physical world.

I can imagine Katsuki having no time to spare while dealing with Afo as this happen. He's got to finish AFO first to get back to Izuku. And I promise you it'll not take too long for him to do that, 'cause it'll be a combo attack from IN and OUT as Izuku counter both Afo and tenko in the vestige space -- but it'll feel a bit longer in Izuku's pov as timeflow seems to be slightly different in there.

Anyhow, as Katsuki was done with afo, what do you think he'll react then when he reached a passed out Izuku? When he arrived to the scene of Izuku and Tenko on the ground, Izuku probably temporarily *not breathing* and motionless. *not breathing due to the setback of gearshift

Katsuki will be shocked and traumatized. After spilling his heart out to win AFO with/for izuku, how could he stand to win the battle if Izuku wasn't there to claim victory alongside him? He would hold Izuku's hand and kept calling out to him (maybe angrily or threatening but the words are sweet and all of it are very contrasting?👀), calling for his soul to come back. Surely he would start crying and confess all his regrets even more too. *reminder: these are only possible because all his walls were finally broken down after his revival, he's a changed man in and out.*

Then, even better! When the medic units and probably some other heroes arrived to the scene, Katsuki suddenly realised he could give Izuku cpr! He'll do it himself and think it'll work since he learnt it from emergency treating lessons, and he didn't want Izuku to leave his side but also didn't want to do nothing to help Izuku recover.

See? Plus Ultra. Katsuki giving Izuku cpr y'all. Bkdk won. All these too in front of some witnesses and recording cameras. :)

And, yeah, cuz hori is a troll, katsuki's kiss of life actually wasn't the *sole* reason Izuku came to (all for the ambiguity too, ya know ;) and besides, hori likes trolling Katsuki too, not allowing him to get what he wants)-- it was all Izuku's well-deserved victory on defeating afo and saving tenko from the vestige space that allowed him to return to his own body after the vestige world close up. In fact, Izuku didn't actually need it, he was merely away from his body to fight in the vestige space for a bit; if he won, he would eventually come back and wake up by himself, the problem of hypoxia naturally dissolved along with it.

In another words, the "kiss" was just a bonus. It's a heartfelt gift from hori-sensei to his bkdk/grateful manga readers. Because in the end of the day, it's the promise between Izuku and Katsuki that wrapped the deal of bkdk being endgame canonically. For Hori, it's a win-win situation; he could have fun building suspense over his readers, as well as finally letting his favourite boys earn their long overdue peace to be together. Also, completing both protagonist and deuteragonist narrative foil as save to win, win to save. AND not making the whole scene romantically charged, as the reason behind their actions aren't out of sexual desire nor sexual attraction, since tHis Is sTilL JusT a shOuNen mAnGa afterall. Just "bros" devoting their life to each other and occasionally hold hands to get comfortable of each other's touch because they're practicing their next combo move. 😀

___________________________________________________

Your gaze followers his movement and settled on his face.

"I'll be right back. Wait for me will ya?"

"Obviously."

He gave you a soft smile and went down the stairs.

You sat there, waiting for him to come back and contemplating whether to go for the whiskey bottle or not. But before you could settle on something Ekko was back already.

"You wanna stay there or move to my room?"

"The choice is yours."

"Aight, my room then, c'mon."

The boy outstretched his hand to you and pulled you up onto your feet.

He flopped onto his bed and you closed the door to his room. His desk was a mess as always, the chair was used as a clothing hanger and his boots were still on his feet, even if he was in bed. Ekko crawled into a sitting position and watched you investigate his room.

"Looking for something in particular?"

"No... I'm just trying to figure out how can the person who's the leader of Firelights be this messy."

"Hey, I didn't bring you here to judge me."

"Why did you bring me here then huh?"

"I dunno, to talk?"

You gave him looong look and shrugged.

"If you say so."

"You don't wanna sit down or?"

Your eyes rolled and you took off your boots, sitting next to him, you back leaned against a wall.

"Better?"

"Definitely."

You chuckled softly at his words.

"Ekko, can I ask you a question? I've wanted to ask this for a while but, never really got the courage."

"I mean, sure, go ahead?"

"So uh, when the, bridge fight happened..."

You turned to face him, trying to read his expression.

"Uh huh?"

"And you fought with Jinx..."

"Uh huhh?"

"Uhm, why did you stop? You know, before she set the bomb off."

The boy's lip curled into a smile and his eyes turned away from you, boring into the wall on the opposite side of the room.

"Jinx, Powder at that time, was my childhood friend, and I thought she was all gone, but I saw her in Jinx in the moment, and I just, I couldn't... I'm so sorry"

"What the fuck are you apologizing for??"

"You got hurt becouse I didn't finish her off."

"Please, do you have any idea how many times Vi had to save my ass? Plus, you didn't know I was there, you can't think like that."

Ekko scoffed and leaned his head against the wall.

"I'm sorry for bringing it up."

"No, don't be, it's aight, I'm glad you ask 'bout things. Any other questions?"

"One actually, how do you feel about playing never have I ever?"

"That's... very random. I mean, I'd love to, but I thought you didn't like my homemade booze. Or are we playin' the lame version?"

You chuckled and shook your head.

"No no no, we're definitely playing with shots, but as you know, I went out, and I got myself a bottle of whiskey."

"You wanna do shots with whiskey? Okay." He raised his hands and had a puzzled expression on his face.

"What? Do you have an issue with that?"

"I mean, considering you grew up in prison, I ain't even suprised."

Ekko waited for you, leaned against his doorframe as you scurried down the staircase and to your room, grabbing the already opened whiskey of your bed and hurrying back to him. You topped on top of the stairs, shaking the bottle at him. The sky was painted with a deep red as the end of the day neared. For a second you got lost in the maroon tapestry of clouds, one arm rested against the railing, the other holding the bottle. Ekko joined you at your side, following your gaze and watching the sky with you.

You could've stayed like that for an eternity, ignoring anything and forgetting everything. Boom. Yours eyes widened as the loud crash echoed through the air from far away. You turned to Ekko, who was already looking your way with a concerned expression on his face. He took the bottle from your hand and put it down, before grabbing your wrist and hurrying down the stairs.

Dialogue Prompts

Alright, you guys. Here is part 8 of the dialogues list! It's pretty long, this time though these aren't categorized, so enjoy! :)

"This is the best possible outcome we could come up with?!" "I don't know how we keep getting ourselves into these situations."

"And we stand one grade A dumbass." "This is a dumb idea." "So, do it."

"For real, you just jinxed us for all the years to come."

"Don't talk to me unless you're coming to apologize!" "Well, don't worry! I won't"

"You befriended a cult?!"

"That was my bad eye anyway."

"Why is everybody crying? Nobody died."

"Only five visitors at a time!"

"Just in case I didn't get the chance to do it again."

"Thanks for pushing me out of my chair, I guess."

"Why do I have to compete if I didn't do it?"

"And how do you plan on skating by that conversation?"

"Since when did you get so hot?"

"I'm not dead!"

"What?! When did it happen? This is news!"

"Wow. Way to leave me behind."

"You'll have that scar forever, I'm afraid."

"What is more important here? Your freedom? Or theirs?"

"This is close quarters, no?"

"You broke up with him via a letter?!" "It was a detailed letter. Better than over the phone!" "Doesn't make it any better."

"We're going to be late, come on."

"He's just going to find some way to making this my fault isn't he?"

"You're supposed to hit the ball! Not miss it!"

"You'll be lucky if they let you try out again after what happened last year."

"What? You didn't think I was going to do all of this by myself did you?" "I've got to go and make a call." "I've got to go do uh... costume checks..." "Guess it's just you and me cowboy." "I've got to uh..." "If you stay, I'll buy you dinner." "I was gonna go to the bathroom."

"Stop fidgeting. You look good."

"You can look but don't touch."

"My husband's going to kick your ass." "I don't think you understand the severity of the situation."

"Are you sure that's the way it's supposed to go? That doesn't look good."

"I'll only have some of yours if you have some of mine."

"You know, for a thief, you're a bad liar."

"You two better get your stories straight. You better give me a reason as to why you're doing this."

"And what if everything doesn't go to plan? Hmm? There's always that possibility. What, you're gonna pick her over all of us?"

"Hey... uh... I thought you were uh... still mad at me." "Oh, believe me. I still am. But I uh..." "Can't sleep?"

"I can't live like this! Something is wrong. Are you going to tell me what it is?" "You have to ASK what is wrong? Shouldn't you know?!" "I don't, that's why I'm asking."

"Did you put batteries in it?" "Yea, I put batteries in it."

"You left because you got bored?!"

"Later, you and I are going to have a conversation you wish we never had."

"It's about time you guys showed up! Where the hell have you been?!" "We had... a technical difficulty."

"What?! We want to come!" "Not this time. Stay in the car."

"You wanna get out of here?" "Have you done anything like this before?" "No. But this is rather exciting isn't it?"

"So, all of these guys are your brothers?" "Yep. All eleven of them."

"It wouldn't hurt if you asked him." "No, he won't do it. He got out of the game years ago." "He'll do it if I ask him."

"Now, are you going to be a lady and tell me what the gig is?" "Now, where would the fun in that be?"

"And if I don't take it?" "Then this conversation never happened and we've never met... but I do hope, you'll reconsider."

"Any other questions? No? Good."

"Oh, don't let me stop you. Go ahead with the plan." "Glad we have your permission."

"And prey tell, what can you do sweetheart?" "I was hoping you'd never have to find out, but since you asked."

"No! Absolutely not! This is not happening!" "Stay away from my sister! About 10 ft from my sister!" "Quit looking at him like that!" "I can't help it if he's handsome!" "You can't tell me who I can and can date you're not mom!"

"I can handle myself. If he does anything to me, I'll beat him to a pulp." "That's my girl."

"Well, sweetheart. It's just us now. What exactly, is it that you wanna do?"

"Aw, babe. you were worried about me?" "That's all that you got from that conversation?!" "Admit it. You were worried."

"It won't go any other way. I swear, if we have to do this again, I'm gonna.."

"Thank you for staying and helping." "Eh. It''s no problem. Besides, it gives me more time to spend with you." "That was so smooth, I can't."

"You just got out of prison and you went to see him first instead of coming to see me? I'm offended."

"We'll need a crew." "We haven't gotten that far yet."

"We've got a proposition for you. If you're interested." "What's the target?" "holy shit." "it's a lot."

"hey. if you want this to work, this is what I need."

"I mean, if this is something that you want, we'll help you. but if you fail, just prepare to be the laughing stock again." "Bold of you to assume, I've recovered from last year."

"Why were they not present at the time of your discretion?"

"And this letter is for you." "Is it from lover boy? I bet it's from lover boy." "Oh, shove off! So, what if it is?"

"he was our captain, why aren't we getting these offers?" "maybe he likes me better."

"Yea, but you put em' in their place. I wouldn't have gotten off without you." "It's what I'm here for."

"alright. that's it. I'm out."

"What do you mean IF you offended me?!" "Alright!!! I'm sorry that I've offended you!"

"Tell him, that I need a little more space here." "Just apologize!" "Why me?! She overreacted!" "I'm sorry - I overreacted?!" "What?! Just when this was getting good." "Break up. break up. break up, please, for my sake, break up!"

"Oh, come on, love. We have to talk about this!" "Oh, now you wanna talk about this?!"

"Okay. Let's go. We've traveled with you all day, now you're coming with us at night." "But we can't see at night." "Sounds more of like a you problem, doesn't it?"

"I gave it to them." "And who are you to give it to them, when it's rightfully mine!"

"Do you have to go?" "Believe me. I don't want to my love, but I have to."

"I hope he realizes what he's doing." "me too."

"Would all of you please just SHUT UP!!!... he has something he would like to say!" "Thank you."

"I'll go! I'll distract them. I'm good at that." "they will tear you apart." "It'll be enough time to give you what you need."

"he's right. you can't go." "since when are you in complete agreement with him?" "since now. you could die or... or be severely injured you know that right?"

"while you deal with them, I'll go and grab the door." "don't let anyone else in!" "yea, okay."

"this is nice, your place. did you do it yourself?"

"just doing my duty as a good host!" "you seem to be taking this much better than your brother." "you're not supposed to eat that!" "how are you not freaking out about this?! they're destroyed our home, mind you!" "you always do overreact to everything."

"excuse me, but I will not have you insult my own brother in our own home. now, I must ask you to apologize, or to leave. you can find your hospitality elsewhere."

"she doesn't know what love is!" "then this might be a good chance for her to find out."

"you're siding with them!?" "I am not. I'm merely eating."

"you cannot stop this."

"nope. you cannot have one or the other. we come in a package deal. you get both of us." "what is the matter with you?! what makes you think I want to be apart of any of this?!" "this is what we've dreamed about since we were kids! you're telling me you don't want to be apart of this?!"

"you might be the only one to convince him of this."

"I want learn how to do that." "oh, I don't think that you could handle something like this, love." "pft. love? alright. someone hand me a sword so, I can kick his ass." "don't you dare you go easy on me." "believe me love, I won't. trust me when I say that." "five pounds on the girl, she loses." "you're on."

"I'd think twice before doing something like this." "I've already made up my mind. you're not stopping me." "alright. I'll step aside then." "that's right, you better."

[lovestrucksuggestion]

hey, sorry if this is too much or smth, but i really don't wanna tell anything to my friends i fearike it'd be "too real" AND OBVIOUSLY I WANT IT TO BE REAL BUT, i don't know, i feel like i'll jinx or fuck it up somehow if i tell it;;

hello, again, okay so, a few weeks back we had this thesis project 6 per group and ive had converstaions w all of them except for 1.

by this point i was lamenting over a past love, we werent necessarily together since we were like, idk 14 or smth when it happened and its been 7 years, we kinda drifted apart after graduation since i thought 'it wouldnt last anyway' and i kept rejecting their advances for a year or two, but i still liked them;;; anyway back in 2020 we got in touch again and i told them that i still liked them and i was just dumb and all that and they seemed to return my advances and ofc i asked if they were comfortable and not just going w the flow yknow and they said yes so.

i confessed and they said not yet cause of school stuff but they do like me still and so i said id wait, THEN it was all okay since we joke and all that but they always seem to reject when i ask them directly about us or like even just to meet up or smth, and ofc i get it so i try not to bother them too much until valentine's rolls in and they post smth on ig with them and their friends and theres this girl with a solo shot of her being goofy and smiling and i just.

idk i took it as a sign to stop since he always used to do that w me before so yeh.

and then like with school i just got lost in all it and directed every ounce of my passion so we finished some stuff quite early, theres only 2 big ones of them we needed to do so a member suggested to split the work between us six. one of thems easier than the other so i got grouped with the guy i havent talked to, kinda scared abt it but all was fine. i added him (lets call him graham) on facebook so we could talk in messenger about planning what to do and all that, then after i found that he's friends with another group member who happened to be someone im close with, kinda AND they messaged me so i asked whats up cause i thought it was abt the project and they reply with smth along the lines of "nothing, graham's just rlly overjoyed since u addrd him cause he likes u" AND IM WHAT CAUSE IM P SURE WEVE NEVER MET then he follows it up w "ure his type, smart and hardworking" AND I DONT HAVE THE HEART TO TELL THAT IM A FALSE ADVERTISEMENT CAUSE IM RLLY NOT ALL THAT AND IM SCARED OF DISAPPOINTING ANYONE

anyway they let it be and i didnt think much of it cause maybe theyre just messing around yknow so nothing much happened, we finished the project and everything's all right until we were grouped for another thing through our society/club whatevr and i was kinda nervous since its my first time meeting them and everything was fun actually turns out it was graham's bday last tuesday so i greeted him and we joked a bit cause wednesday's the club thingy, i didnt even know what he looked like since his pfp's from when he was a kid

wednesday rolls in and im in the library with a friend, a mutual friend of ours and he said hello to me and i was so happy somehow??? I DONT REALLY GET IT MYSELF I USUALLY TAKE SO LONG TO ACCLIMATIZR TO SOMEONE BUT LIKE THE CLUB THINGY WENT WELL AND WE WERE JOKING BY THE END OF THE DAY AND I JUST, i think i like him as well?? he even asked to take a picture with me he seemed so nervous i wanted to hug him I ACTUALLY THOUGHT ITD BE OUR WHOLE GROUP IN THE CLUB but it turns out it wasnt so !!!!!!

thursday comes and we messaged a bit (he chatted first, abt the thesis) we were in a seminar and i was a bit late that day so i was at the back and our other classmates r upfront w him so never really met, until a friend of mine and i were going home and we MET THEM ON THE TRAIN ISTG MY HEART WAS JUMPING UNTIL I GOT HOME SMILING LIKE AN IDIOT WHILE WALKING

okay sorry but like, tldr, im a bit afraid that i only "like" him cause he liked me first, yknow after i waited for the previous person and evrything for so long and receiving little to nothing ++ i think his expectation of me's kinda high im neither smart nor hardworking im just anxious all the time so i have to do my work quick or else i'll die and some part of me's still doubting his feelings for me as just a prank cause nsjdhbf idk im not really pretty too so whats up why is this happrning but he's so fucking cute (generally) and i am falling as well and im scared cause we'd be graduating in a year so what if this also doesnt end quite well and i end up losing a friend?

i kinda also wanna just come up to him and invite him for a date but yeh :( and yesterday my phone died and i was stoked to meet him but he wasnt at uni so i was kinda sad then i find out the previous person i like messaged me and idk they were kinda flirty and i feel bad if i leave them again cause ive done it once and i was only left with regrets so what if im just repeating history aaaa its so hard to like manage everything too if graham and i somehow manage to be together im not great at balancing things what if i let him slip away or smth

again sorry for this i just wanted to know what other people think i really wanna shoot my shot at the same time i feel like im a people pleaser so yknow what if im just doing this cause of attention or smth idk huhu thanks in adavmce if u answer this but no hatd feelings if u dont thank u boo

Hello, you seem very stressed out! Please take several deep breaths, put on some calming music and remember that none of this is life or death.

First of all, you're right to let this past love go, it's simply not in the cards and I'm proud of you for recognizing that. Throw the whole man away, if he makes you feel bad(even if he's not doing it on purpose!) you don't need that drama.

I'm not going to diagnose you with anything over the internet, especially not based on one interaction, but I will say that in this ask specifically, you are exhibiting pretty high levels of anxiety and worry that it might be good to speak to a professional about. Your university should have free mental health services, if you have insurance you can call and ask what providers they cover, and failing that, there are many therapists and psychiatrists who offer sliding scale coverage for low income patients.

Alright, now that's done, what needs to happen here is something that I know you will not like, but is pretty much mandatory-you need to have a conversation with Graham. It's okay if it turns out you only like that he's interested in you, and when you get to know him you're less into him. You're not asking him to marry you after all. It's also okay if you're not smart or funny or hardworking (I think you're being too hard on yourself, but even so, it's okay).

If you talk with him and express your interest, you can set a boundary on how you like to be complimented(i.e., low pressure compliments that don't comment on your abilities) and specify if you want something casual just to see how you vibe. Even if you graduate, you might stay together, or you might not. You definitely won't know unless you try.

Also, who cares if you want attention???? you're human, that's totally natural. You're not gonna go to Needy Jail for it.

All that to say:

go to therapy

figure out what you want (in general and from Graham specifically. You can do this in therapy)

stop talking to past love

start talking to Graham about what you want

remember that even if things end up less than ideal, it's okay

~The Haunted Manor~

(the witches/ghost story, apart of my short story collection 'The Ballad of Hollowfaye' also available to read on wattpad)

Three witches (two Vespers and a Depraysier) and a mortal unite over a Ouija board in the Vespers' haunted house and try to commune with the spirits of their brutally murdered and dearly departed family.

Genre: YA Fantasy

Word Count: (to be determined)

(Pt 3)

I could feel Abbott Jinx fall in love with me. One minute he was walking me to my door, joking about how we couldn't be friends because he saw me laughing at something that Patty—or Patrick—Dean had said while I was stood beside him in the lunchline; the next thing I knew, things were different.

Things had changed.

His eyes were staring right into my soul, and he was smiling at my words. I'd told him Patty had invited me to his annual Halloween party, and that I'd said I couldn't make it when what I'd really meant was I'm not interested in a party on a docked boat in the dead of autumn.

Patty Dean isn't a concern of mine. There are three things in this world that I bother to care about: Fernezra, Abbott Jinx, and the unsolved murders of my Aunt Iris and my parents. Since one of those things (two for the price of one, actually) was taken from me, I tend to get protective of and immerse myself in the remaining things.

Namely, Abbott Jinx. He's been my favorite person since the first grade, after we were friends for awhile, and I'd finally told him about my family's fatal curse; he smiled and puffed his chest, "I'll protect you." He had ever since, from any and every possible danger, including Patty Dean.

He nodded and spoke so softly, it was like his voice was the song of the gentle, bitter wind.

"Well, still, we're friends, Fives," and he said 'friends' too hard, as if he was trying to remind himself and the warmth in his chest...

And he called her Fives the nickname he'd given her when he'd seen her name written out. His eyes had widened and he'd looked at her terrified, "How do you even say that?" She'd rolled her eyes because she got the same question every time she moved to a new school, "It's five with an 's'." He only looked more terrified. "Your name is FIVES?" He had to accompany her to the nurse's office five minutes later because she physically couldn't stop laughing.

His softness, his intimate tone, the warmth pouring from him into her, all brought her back with a smile on her face, "--and I don't wanna see you get hurt like the other girls that hang around him."

My heart burned and I reminded him: "Don't worry, my bodyguard is one of the best."

He snorted, "Hey, he's the best actually."

I nodded and smiled, and I wished that he could feel things like me. He would know that my heart was slamming against my chest too, that I was focusing on his every word and how his lips shaped around them.

"He is... He's the best." I leaned closer. Not close enough for him to think anything was different —that I could feel everything he was feeling, "You are the best, Abbotticus Jinx." I couldn't think. I could just feel him and feeling what he felt left me braindead with a golden warm chest.

The night was too ill-lit for me to make out the blush rising up his neck and dark cheeks, but I could feel it was there. He visibly and audibly gulped, and the sound knocked him into what he assumed was his reality: he'd fallen for his best friend and there was no way she felt the same way.

He was embarrassed. I felt it like it was my own. I wanted to pull him in for a hug and explain everything to him, but I couldn't because I knew he'd only get more embarrassed and there's no way he'd believe that I'm a real-life witch.

"I—uh—"

He was bombing and I wanted to save him from himself. He was no longer embarrassed, he was mortified the more he spoke. I can't read thoughts, but I could tell that his brain was overloading with self-loathing insults. He was physically pained by them, and so I was too. I was bound to double over any moment.

"Good night, drive safe." And before he could show how relieved he felt to be let off the hook, I pulled him into a hug. My stomach muscles had stopped their clenching. I felt his relief. I was relieved.

But then he froze. He hadn't been expecting it--the hug-- but, also, he had. We were friends, I always hugged him, but especially before we said goodbye. I hadn't done it with my parents and almost every day I regret robbing myself of that last comforting touch. But Abbotticus Jinx hadn't been expecting the hug since the air around us had changed.

It meant... Not more, necessarily, but something completely different. He'd fallen in love with me and I was hugging him so deeply and warmly... Except as a friend, or so he thought.

I could feel Abbott Jinx fall in love with me. But then, I felt myself do the same. 

He hugged me back, and his warmth spread quickly from his hoodie to me, and with it came his scent. Crunchy orange and red leaves, the cold foggy night, and a fresh cup of cocoa from 'potions & things'. We stayed in each other's arms much longer than usual, neither of us stirring. It seemed like the only acceptable place to be, especially on a cold night like last night.

But he had to pull away—strict curfew and the legends of ghouls and spirits that get you to finish their unfinished businesses. His eyes met mine... And it was obvious we felt the same way, I held his gaze, matched his blush, could feel that the same thoughts were going through his head: "Could this be what everyone talks about?"

But he couldn't see it. He couldn't feel that I felt it. So he took a step back and cleared his throat, scratching behind his neck, "Hey... Since you're blowing off Pat's party, we should do something for Halloween... You and me..." and his regret came so quick, my abdominal muscles clenched and spasmed—I had to quickly catch myself before I groaned in pain, "If you want to, of course. It's just an idea."

"No, I'd love to. I'll make the plans, you show up." I could barely muster the words.

He nodded, both of us breathless, before the regret started slipping away, replaced by the much lighter warmth in his stomach. That was it. I watched him disappear into his mom's halfway-totaled Volkswagen Beetle. I walked inside and Fernezra greeted me from the couch through a mouthful of popcorn.

"What's that embarrassing smile all about, biatch?"

I wasn't just smiling because of Abbott Jinx. I was smiling because I didn't have to think about what the plans with him would be. I'd been thinking about it ever since Malin Depraysier told me that she could see my dreams and speak to the dead. I wouldn't have just her aid either, I'd have the help of an Ouija board, the one my Aunt Ophelie kept stored in the attic with the rest of my parents' and other dead relatives' things. None of them had had enough time to acquire much, nothing that could take up too much space.

And we'd have also the help of a full moon on Halloween night, when the veil between our world and the afterlife was thinnest.

I wanted to speak to my parents, find out why my mother was driving drunk when she'd never had even the slightest taste of alcohol before, or why my father's body was found two-hundred yards away from the wreckage, blood smeared along the pavement as if he'd been dragged from the devastation, deeper into the woods so that nobody could find him; cut-up, bruised, eyes-gauged and tongue ripped out.

"Animals," the police had explained.

No, not animals. Murder. I was going to get to the bottom of it.

━━━━━ monday mood.

Hello~! Today I thought of starting a journal <3 because I was bored ༎ຶ⁠‿���༎ຶ

Honestly, idk wat to write abt (⁠•⁠ ⁠▽⁠ ⁠•⁠;⁠) but I hav so many notebooks around. Mama gives me one every Christmas even tho I don't ask for one 💀

AnYwayS it's late alr (it's literally 2am) I hav class tomorrow. Crossing my fingers I don't wake up late–

... I jinxed myself (⁠ب⁠_⁠ب⁠), Emma thinks grimly while looking around the room for an empty chair. To be fair, I usually wake up late so did I really jinx myself? 

She visibly brightens when a hand shoots up to wave at her frantically, and rushes to the empty seat beside her best best friend.

"Machan!" "Kocchan!" The girls beam at seeing each other.

"Why are you late?" Kumiko asks the other unpacking her books.

Emma shrugs, "I found some notebooks yesterday while I was cleaning. I was thinking maybe I should start journaling again... Hehe I got distracted and slept late."

Her friend looks unimpressed by this. "Knowing you, you probably didn't even write much OR finish cleaning..." Kumiko crosses her arms to stare Emma down like their homeroom teacher would if he found out she entered class late. "Emerson Brown, you stayed up reading mangas again didn't you?"

Emma smiles sheepishly, guilty as charged. She didn't expect less from her best friend. That girl knows her from her OTP to the many shōjo mangas hidden all around her dorm, especially between and behind the folded clothes in her closet.

"Hahh... Maybe I should tell Haida-kun he can sit next to me next time so you'll be pressured to come to class earlier." Kumiko looks away, sighing.

Emma gasps, "You wouldn't! You said you love me 😞-"

"You're right I won't lol. My heart belongs to Gallahan only 😩-" They talk at the same time.

"Bruh."

"I-I mean- Why would I do that to my bfff? I love you 🥺 🫶"

Emma looks down, a shadow casting over her features, "No. I get it..." She looks up with stars in her eyes. "Gallahan is the best!"

"I know right!!!" The two fangirls giggle over their best boi from the most recent manhwa they were reading.

The door opens and everyone stands up to greet their teacher, "Good morning, Sensei!"

As they sit back down, Emma grins mischievously. "Hehe~ I know another reason why you don't let Haida-kun sit next to you: You can't fangirl over our sensei with anyone else!" Emma nudges a flustered Kumiko playfully.

"H-hey! You're so loud!" She nudges her back harder, making Emma laugh.

• • •

"I can't believe it's only Monday and we have what? 4 presentations due on Friday already?? ... Can you believe it?" Kumiko rants while they wait for their takoyaki.

Emma lets out a long sigh. "Is the takoyaki done? (⁠●⁠´⁠⌓⁠`⁠●⁠)" 

Kumiko shoots her now zombie-looking friend a sympathetic look.

"Here are your orders, miss."

She hurriedly thanks the seller for the takoyaki and hands Emma her bowl. She watches her friend's face color with life at the smell of food, and exhales in relief at seeing her friend back to normal. 

Emma immediately eats one, whole. While eating her own share, Kumiko watches as sparkles and flowers appear around a happy Emma. She always has this aura whenever she eats food. Seeing her enjoy eating just makes you wanna enjoy food as much as she does. 

"Ohh I have an idea!"

"Yeah? Tell me." Kumiko's reply is muffled by the food in her mouth.

Emma smiles even wider, "Café study date! You and me."

"OM to the G. Yes!" The two continue to make plans while walking to the main yard.

"We can take turns with the bill."

Emma hums in agreement. "Yeah sure! Do you wanna go to the cat café we went to last Christmas?"

"I don't think we can handle those cute distractions... Oh!! Maybe we can go to the café near my house!"

"Kocchan, what did you just say about distractions?"

"Just because the waiter is cute doesn't mean I'll get distracted 😌"

"kocCHANN 💀"

"Okok fineee." Kumiko stops at the sight of the main gate. "We're here. Let's just continue later."

Emma nods, "Kk! I'll walk you there. I need to throw this too."

"You're done already?"

"And you're not?"

Kumiko pauses and blinks at her friend. She laughs and the two hug. "Bye, Machan! See you tomorrow!" "See you, Kocchan! Get home safe."

Emma continues to wave until Kumiko turned the corner and disappeared from her view.

She turns around and heads to the dormitories. As she enters the third dormitory building, her phone rings. 

𝘖𝘮𝘢𝘦 𝘸𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘪𝘳𝘶. (っ◔◡◔)っ 𝒰𝓉𝓈𝓊𝓂𝓊𝒾𝓉𝒶 𝓀💍𝓃🌸 ♥𝒹𝑒𝓀❁ 𝓉🌞𝓃𝓉💗𝓃 𝓉𝒶𝓉𝒶𝒾𝓉𝒶 𝓃💗 𝓌𝒶 🎀 🍓⋆

She gets excited when she sees the caller's name. Ma!

"Hi Ma!" Emma greets. "How are you?"

"I'm not your mA."

She pauses for a second then brightens at the familiar voice. "Lia-neesan!!"

"Hey Machan. How's your day?"

"Meh. The usual hell 😮‍💨 We have 4 presentations due on Friday already! And guess what?"

"Hm?" Her sister hums.

"I'm groupmates with annoying freeloaders ://"

"Bruh. Again?"

"I know right!"

"Good luck."

Emma laughs at her sister's tone. "Anyway, why are you calling from Ma's phone? Where is she? Can I talk to her?"

There is a pause from the other side. Worried that the signal became shit, Emma calls her sister. "Neesan? Can you hear me?"

On the other side of the call, Dahlia bites her lip. Hearing her sister call her makes her sigh. "Mama... She wanted to call you but Nico and Mikey drew on Drea's face so she had to go check that out. That's why I called instead to ask how you're doing... but she did want to call you! It's just..."

Emma doesn't hear anything after her sister told her about Ma checking on what happened to Andrea. What was I expecting?

Mama and Papa are always too busy for me. Always too busy with work and taking care of the four monsters I call my younger siblings, that they don't have time for me anymore. 

Sometimes I feel like they don't even remember I exist.

I bet Lia-neesan was the one who reminded Ma to call me because she knows that I'm lonely here.

If it wasn't for her or Kocchan, I don't know if anyone would even remember me. In a lot of people's lives, I'm just some background character. Even my classmates or teachers don't notice me that much. I'm not that "special" or "important." Not even to my family... 

"... Machan..." Dahlia's gentle tone snaps Emma from her self-deprecating trance.

"Yeah? I'm here." Emma tries to smile, forgetting her sister can't see her. She starts to rummage through her bag for the dorm keys. A distraction.

"Wednesday is my day off. Movie night?"

Emma sighs, "Lia-neesan... I have class on Thursday..."

"So? We can do it earlier and finish around 10. Or are you turning down the traditional cheese ramen I make for our movie nights?"

"Wait! I didn't say you couldn't come-"

"Too bad~ I have been perfecting my recipe in my free time. Oh well, maybe you can just eat Dahlia's Grand Ultimate Cheese Ramen of Yum some other time~ like maybe next week because I'll be busy with work~ or maybe even next, nEXt week~!" Emma could hear her sister smirking as she spoke.

Sighing, she gives in. "Okayyy fine. Only until 10!"

"Mhm. But I bet you'll be the one to ask to watch another movie." Dahlia chuckles and Emma couldn't help smiling at her sister's efforts to cheer her up.

"Thank you..."

"Anytime Machann~"

"Dahlia!" Emma freezes at the faint sound of her mom's voice. 

"Ma, I'm talking to-"

"Dahlia!!" 

Dahlia exhales at their mom's persistence. "Ma's calling me. Probably to help sort the quarrel out. Bye! See you on Wednesday."

The happiness Emma felt left as quickly as it came. "Ah... Bye."

Click!

She opens the door, only to be greeted by a dark, messy dorm. Kocchan was right when she said she didn't finish cleaning. Emma meant to, but she got distracted with the journal, which was still open and in the middle of a scatter of bujo materials, then the mangas she uncovered from their hiding places.

She drops her bag and flops on the Totoro bean bag, sighing.

Spotting the open notebook makes Emma wonder if she'd be able to write something... worth writing about. An adventure of a lifetime or even just a simple but nice memory with her family or friends (if ever she makes any more, which she probably won't). Other than Dahlia, it's been a while since she really bonded with the rest of her family.

She couldn't go home last weekend because she had to finish researching for a paper. Actually, she hasn't come home for the weekend for a while, but it seems like no one noticed anyway. 

Even during most of the breaks, she wouldn't come home—not because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't. Just last sem break, there was a problem so she had to stay with Kumiko and her family. They made her feel at home and she very much enjoyed her stay there... but she also wished she could enjoy being with her own family again too.

She curls into a fetal position and hugs her legs tightly. Even with all the stuffed toys, mangas and other room decors, her dorm still feels empty.

A squeak interrupts her thoughts, erasing that numbing feeling of loneliness crawling all over her again. Emma turns to see her dorm mate peering at her intently from behind the cage bars. She smiles at her furry friend, "At least I have you, Ham-Sam."

Ham-Sammy continues to stare into her soul, reminding her of her promise to him this morning. She was in a rush, having no time to even heat food, so she just stuffed cold bread in her mouth and placed some on his food bowl too.

Emma pouts, Damn, I can't even be sentimental with the only living creature who lives with me ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ 

Sticking her tongue out at her hamster, she grabs her bag and digs through the contents for the container she brought from the cafeteria. It's filled with greens, and Hammy's favorite: celery!

Taking one from the container, she waves it in front of him. She giggles as she observes Ham-Sammy go crazy at the sight of food.

He seems to squeak indignantly at her teasing and she snorts, unable to keep her laughter in. "Okay, okay! Here you go~"

Emma lifts the latch and opens the door. As she reaches to place the celery in his bowl, the little thing jumps on her hand and practically flies out.

"H-hey! Ham!!" She drops the celery and immediately chases after that sneaky rat.

"Come back here!"

"Hey! Don't you wanna eat?? I have celery!!" 

"Ham-Sam you little-"

No matter what she says, the critter doesn't listen, enjoying his freedom (and giving his owner a hard time).

After scrambling here and there, Ham-Sammy finds the celery Emma dropped and stops to eat it.

Seizing the opportunity to catch him, Emma starts to tiptoe nearer. She opens her arms, forming an "o" to trap him. She starts to kneel slowly... then swoop! He squeaks in surprise as she catches him. "HA!"

A black hole suddenly appears right underneath her and she falls, screaming all the way down.

[that-one-weeb-buts-its-the-main]

Hello! Can I ask for Jinx with a girlfriend who is all calm and caring, but is very protective and has a lot of destructive power when someone she loves is in danger.

Thank you in advance!

Sweet Death| Jinx

Reader: Female

Note: shes so precious, also I kinda Wrote it subtly to how destructive our Y/n can really be

Arcane Master list ♡♡ Here's The Dump

"Im back!" Jinx cheered barging into the bar.

Y/n smiled, "welcome back Jinx."

Jinx smiled widely rushing over and taking a hard seat on he bar stool it swiveling with a squeak.

"What's it today babe?" Y/n spoke with a loving smile.

"Whatever you got!"

Y/n nodded putting Jinx's cup on the bar, it marked with crayon and chalk, and grabbed the nearest non expired juice.

"He put you on cleaning duty? So boring!" Jinx pouted, Y/n pouring her a cup.

"It's better than during hours." Y/n responded, setting a banged up straw in the cup, "remembered what happened last time doll?"

"Ooo! Oo! I know! You kicked someones face in because they touched your ass!"

Y/n nodded leaning on the counter and leaning towards Jinx, Jinx leaning forward as well with a stupidly in love smile.

"Come on. Drink. I don't know when Silco's restocking." Y/n told her pushing the drink towards Jinx.

"Come on! Come onto the feild with me please!" Jinx begged, "I wanna see you hunt! You're good at it! I know it!"

Y/n chuckled, "i think im okay here. That's your thing."

"Aren't you too young to work in a bar anyways?" Jinx protested with a pout.

"Im a year older than you." Y/n told, "arent you too young to be sitting at one."

"Ugh! You're no fun!" She pouted Y/n chuckled once more.

"I think Im fun." Y/n told her.

"I think Im fun.". Jinx mocked, Y/n shaking her head with a smile.

It fell silent for a moment, Y/n pulling away to finishing drying some glasses.

"Will you come over today?"

Y/n nodded, "I'll bring some sweets too. Nother bad day?"

Jinx nodded, "yeah..."

Y/n frowned, "It'll get better...what goes down must come up."

Leaning back over the bar top Y/n gave her a quick peck on the lips, brushing the long blue bangs out her face.

Jinx quickly wrapped her arms around Y/n's neck. Y/n chuckling at the fast movement but hugged back.

"Go put a jacket on your freezing." Y/n spoke into her shoulder.

"Mhm." Jinx hummed hugging tighter.

Yet someone cleared there throat. Jinx pulled away, Y/n quickly returning to work. Silco standing there.

"Heyya!" Jinx cheered cup in hand and spinning in circles, Silco stopping the spinning by grabbing her shoulder.

"Those fireflys are ready?" Silco spoke.

"Almost." Jinx informed drinking from the straw, but didnt get the hit to leave.

"May I have a word. With our bartender here."

Jinx raised her eyebrows, "yeah sure why not?"

It was silent as Jinx sat still.

"Alone Jinx."

"Oh." She spoke looking back at Y/n, "Uh. Sure..."

She got up leaving to go work on her gadgets. Once she was gone Silco removed his coat and took a seat. Y/n finishing her task and setting a nicer glass down infront of Silco.

"What will it be today sir?" Y/n questioned.

"Whatever you drink." Silco spoke pulling a cigar from his coats inner pocket, cutting the end off and setting the clippers down on the bar top.

Y/n pulling out a lighter and holding it out for him, he leaned forward lighting it and giving her a nod in thanks.

Y/n pocketing the lighter and leaned back onto the counter behind her.

"Well." Silco spoke, "My drink."

"Nice try." Y/n spoke, "I don't drink and if I did. I would keep that to myself and away from your daughter."

"Yet you smoke," Silco spoke.

"Not around Jinx."

"She'll ask you to stop."

"Then I will." Y/n responded, turning around to make him a quick drink.

"You've got guts, doing what you do with my daughter." Silco seethed.

"I do anything your daughter ask of me." Y/n told, "what? You think I don't care about her? That I'll betray her? Good luck with that."

Picking up the shot glass she set it infront of Silco whip cream seemingly covered the top, "Its expected of you. To drink something sweet."

"Its a blow job shot." Y/n smirked crossing her arms, he glaring at her and she glaring back, "I think you can tell what Im telling you. If you ever think, I'll ever hurt Jinx- you can suck my fat fucking cock. Of course. If you can even take it."

Silco leaned back smoking the cigar, "You have my respect. Last time someone had there eyes on Jinx. Well. Lets just say I showed up and they ran."

Y/n pulled out her own cigarette, "they weren't me now where they? Now. You wanna know what I would do if someone ever put a hand on Jinx? They'd be hung upside down like a dead animal, gutted, awake might I add and I'd feed them there organs. Now. Im not a monster. So I'll cook them, but sure enough they aren't worth the seasoning and feed there organs to them. Jinx always did like blank canvas' who said she wouldn't like a skull next?"

Lighting the cigarette she took in a puff, blowing out the smoke from her nose, "any more questions? Sir?"

"That drink is coming out your paycheck."

"Yeah I had that one comin to me."

Jinx sighed, where was she? She groaned bored, laying on the cleared off couch lazingly, her head hanging off the cushions.

"Y/n!" She complained, "when are you coming! Ugh!"

"You called?" Y/n responded.

Jinx looking up, Y/n standing behind the couch.

"Y/n!" She cheered getting up and jumping off the couch into Y/n's arms.

"Woah!" She laughed with a smile, holding Jinx up with one arm, the other holding a box of sweets.

"I got a box of sweets!"

"Yes! Yes Yes!" Jinx cheered, "your the best! I love you!"

Y/n smiled, Jinx kissing her cheek happily over and over again, "I love you too."

Walking around to the front of the couch she set tossed herself down, Jinx now in her lap and Y/n handing the sweets to her.

"Which one should we eat first?" Jinx smiled opening the box to find the fancy sweets.

"They look so good!" She cheered.

"I guess having some connections with Bakeries in Piltover are good." Y/n spoke, one of her hands messing with Jinx's left braid.

"Whats this!" Jinx cheered pointing at large peice of sweet bread.

"I don't know actually. The lady called it a Concha. It looked good. I grabbed pretty much whatever she was gonna throw away." Y/n told her, "but your favorites in there-"

"DONUT WITH SPRINKLES!" She cheered picking one up and quickly taking a bite into it.

Y/n smiled, Jinx's somewhat always upbeat attuide was nice. It was orginal in Jinx's own way forsure, and it made Jinx special in her eyes.

"Mhm! There so good!" Jinx cheered throwing her arms around Y/n, kissing her happily, the taste of sugar on her lips as Y/n smiled kissing back.

Jinx quickly pulled away licking her lips, "Come on! Take a bite!"

Jinx was quickly replaced with the donut as Y/n chuckled, it muffled due to the sweet in her mouth.

She took a bite and smiled nodding her head in response, Jinx getting off her lap and rushing off. Y/n setting the box down on the table with the half eaten donut on top.

Jinx soon returned with a box, it tattered and drawn on it her own little sketches.

"For you!"

Y/n smiled, taking the box, and opening it, the little firefly metallic and with green gemstone eyes. It twitched and stood up on its little legs taking flight.

"It dosen't blow up! Well! It can! But you have to command it too!" Jinx told her.

"It's amazing Jinx." Y/n spoke the small creature landing in Y/n's hand, "You're amazing babe!"

"Aw! I know!" Jinx cheered y/n laughing as it flew off, Y/n tackling her to the couch in a hug.

"What would I be withour you Jinx." Y/n praised a smile on her lips.

Jinx's arms tightened around Y/n her head in Y/n's neck, how she loved Y/n's hugs.

"Don't let me go?' Jinx questioned softly.

"Never." Y/n told, kissing her head.

Rogue-durin-16 masterlist

Fred spotted me and walked to stand near me before asking jokingly "On your way to kill a man, Y/n?" Oh, little did he know.

"what is that?!" I exclaimed at the sight of my friend's bruised arm.

"uhm... Nothing."

"who did that to you?" I knew the answer before I even got it. My friend had gone to break up with that Cormac McLaggen the previous night; she had finally listened to us and ended that toxic relationship they had, but apparently she got a souvenir from it.

"It's fine- he didn't mean to- Y/n don't do anything stupid." Too late, I saw red.

"I don't have time for your bullshit, Weasley." I curtly replied bumping his shoulder while I walked past him, making his smile drop in confusion. I never missed the opportunity to start a playful argument with him, but, as I had said, I didn't have time for that.

With the corner of my eye, I saw him joining my friends in the task of trailing after me.

I spotted the bastard chatting with his friends in the middle of the hallway that led to the Great Hall. "Oi, McLaggen!"

"Evening, Y/l/n." That filthy grin vanished from his face when I kicked him in the balls, triggering some gasps from our peers and a grunt of pain from him.

"Listen carefully, you loathsome pig." I leaned over to be eye to eye with him. "If you dare to lay a finger on my friend again— if you even think about it— I'll become your personal nightmare." I stood upright again, his eyes full of hate and rage following my movements. "You don't deserve a bloody warning, but I'm a generous woman." Poison dripped off my tongue, my eyes throwing daggers at him as I stepped back and turned around.

My eyes met Fred's worried ones while I made my way to my friends; they surely had told him enough for the ginger to know this was no time for joking and teasing.

His gaze then flickered behind me with panic and I realized a tad too late I shouldn't have turned my back to McLaggen; at the end of the day, pride overpowered honour in a lot of Gryffindors.

I spun around, grabbing my wand from my pocket, but I wasn't fast enough; before I knew what was happening, Fred was in front of me, serving as a human shield from the jinx.

The unknown spell hit his back and propelled us in my friends' direction. I was quickly on my knees, sitting Fred up and earning a grunt in the process, which I initially thought was caused by the fall. "Are you mental?!" My friend casted an Expelliarmus at the younger Gryffindor, long forgotten due to Fred's actions.

"My back— AH!" He yelped when I tried to pull him up.

"OI!" A first year who had made his way to the first row of students frantically gestured at Fred's back. "He's bleeding!!"

"What?!" I made him lean on me to take a look at his white shirt, now stained with blood. What I thought to be a harmless jinx turned out to be fatal.

"He's not supposed to be bleeding!" Cormac shouted, as panicked as I was.

One of my friends said something about going to look for George while the others shoot off to look for Madam Pomfrey.

"I'm gonna kill him..." Fred mumbled through gritted teeth, his voice shaky and weak. He felt so fragile in my arms, and I couldn't help the tears stinging my eyes.

"Fred—" his hands, which had been gripping my forearms, lost strength as the boy's body relaxed. "For fuck's sake don't fall asleep."

"... 'm trying..."

"FREDDIE!" His twin brother rushed to us, falling on his knees by his brother's side.

"I'm sorry." McLaggen had walked to us, keeping a safe distance.

"YOU'RE DEAD MCLAGGEN!" George stood up before I could stop him. Luckily for everyone, Madam Pomfrey showed up.

"Oh Lord! Mister Weasley, quick! Help me with your brother!" The Healer commanded, and soon they were pulling Fred off my grasp and rushing to the infirmary.

I was left in the middle of the hallway with my friends showering me with worried questions and reassurance.

What the fuck had just happened?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

During dinner, several girls and a couple of boys came to congratulate me for kicking McLaggen's balls, and it would have been a lot more satisfactory if Fred Weasley hadn't stepped in the middle.

As soon as I finished my meal, I headed to the infirmary through the now quiet halls, only to find there were too many people visiting.

Of course, George was there, along with their younger siblings and Lee Jordan, but in front of them stood Professor Flitwick, Professor McGonagall and none other than Cormac McLaggen himself.

"—already told you it wasn't for you!"

"How is that an apology, Mister McLaggen?" McGonagall scolded him, refraining herself from hitting the boy herself.

"You better fucking run, McLaggen, because the moment I can step out of this bed I swear on Godric I will—"

"Enough, Mister Weasley!" I almost pitied the poor woman. Her House was probably the most problematic. "All of you must go to your dormitories, Mister Weasley needs to rest." I stood on the entrance of the room, unsure of whether I should leave or enter, until Flitwick's eyes landed on my form. He redirected McGonagall's attention to me, and I felt the need of shying away. "Miss Y/l/n," I didn't miss the failed attempt of Fred to move; luckily, he was stopped by his sister. "I suppose you wanted to pay a visit?"

"Uhm... I did, Professor." I confessed, fidgeting with the sleeves of my robe. "I know it's late—"

"Don't take too long." She spoke, motioning everyone to follow her. "Curfew is still at 10." She reminded me in a warning tone, passing by.

As soon as they were out, I made my way to Fred, who lay on his stomach in one of the beds, the sheets only covering his legs an hips in order to avoid the clothing chaffing his damaged skin.

"You have a heart after all, huh?" He teased once I stood in front of him.

"How are you?" He frowned at my genuine question; the ginger surely expected me to make a witty comeback, but again, it didn't seem the time.

"A tad better." He gave me a reassuring half smile, deciding to drop our banter for a night. "Flitwick said he used a stinging jinx but casted it wrong." Fred huffed. "A bloody tosser."

He motioned at the chair behind me and I sat down, scooting closer to the bed. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that he had jumped in front of me. It had hit his back, but I knew it was meant to hit my face —what a mess that would have been—, and I couldn't help but feel a bit guilty.

"Stop that."

"Stop what?"

"It's not on you." I felt my face flaring up at the ease with which he saw through me. I wasn't the first time he did that, but it was the first time he didn't use it to tease me.

"I know, I just—" I sighed. "I don't know." Though my sight was casted down, I still felt his worried gaze on me. "I'm gonna murder him."

"I reckon George will overtake us both on that." He tried to laugh but ended up in a since instead. "Or Gin. Maybe they'll team up with Ron and we'll find a corpse in the Gryffindor common room tomorrow." This time it was me who laughed. "How's your friend?"

"She'll be alright." I informed, distracting myself with a loose string at the hem of my skirt.

"And you?" I met his eyes with a hum leaving my mouth. "How are you?"

"Been better." I confessed.

Silence.

"Can you pass me the water?" I nodded, holding the glass in front of him and putting the straw in his mouth so he could take a couple of sips. "Thanks."

"No worries."

Silence again.

"Did you eat something?"

He scrunched his nose. "Not really."

"I'll go grab something from the kitchens." I didn't get far before his long fingers wrapped around my wrist.

"I'd rather have you here keeping my company." I then sat down again, his fingers only leaving my wrist to intertwin with mines. "I'm not hungry anyway."

More silence.

"Your hand is really soft." I reckon those words involuntarily escaped his lips by the way his eyes widened. "I don't know why I said that."

"Yours is too, surprisingly."

"Surprisingly?" He quirked an eyebrow at me, and I didn't quite realise what his grin was about until I spoke again.

"I imagined they'd be more rough." Oh no. "That came out wrong— I meant—"

"That you've imagined what my hands would feel like?" He was trying to bite back a laugh at the way my face turned red.

"No!"

"You sure?"

"Positive."

"Liar."

There we went again; the white flag was out.

"Fuck you."

"Please." My cheeks turned even redder, and I wanted to think it was because of the anger. "You look really cute when you blush."

"You look really cute when you keep your mouth shut."

"Then shut me, love." He wiggled his brows at me.

"I would, but I don't wanna punch you in this state."

"You're very agressive." He pointed out, shocked that I didn't get what he was implying. "I meant with a kiss."

"Ew-" I pretended to gag. "no!"

He tugged on my hand and pulled me to my knees falling right in front of his eyes with our faces inches away. "C'mon Y/l/n, we're dragging this on now." His eyes kept falling on my mouth after I had unconsciously chewed on my lower lip.

"We're... We're not dragging on anything." I wasn't sure if I was trying to convince him or myself.

"Do you want me to start? Alright, you drive me mad." He forced his gaze to be fixed on mine. "You're annoying, rude and a pain in the arse." I huffed. "But you're also quick-witted and caring and brave." Gosh I hated how easily he made me blush. "Sometimes I want to punch you in that pretty face of yours but other times— most of the times— all I wanna do is kiss you." His thumb caressed the back of my hand. "Hell, I threw myself between you and that blonker without thinking twice!"

He raised his eyebrows, silently prompting me to say something, but I just didn't know what to say.

"Miss Y/l/n," Madam Pomfrey called, making me let go of Fred's hand an stood up. "It's almost ten o'clock! Let Mister Weasley rest." I nodded, not even looking in Fred's direction as I exited the infirmary.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

FRED'S P. O. V.

The morning after the incident, Dean and Neville dragged in an unrecognisable McLaggen; they were probably the only ones who cared about that bloke enough to take him to Madam Pomfrey, though they did it half-heartedly.

I was discharged after three days in, right before lunch, and obviously, I was received as a hero; several people came to praise my bravery or ask how I was feeling, but I just wanted to see one person.

That night in the infirmary I was sure she felt the same way —hell, I had been sure for a couple of months— but after seeing her reaction, I didn't really know anymore.

I could always tell her it was a prank, and we would go back to our usual bickering. "Weasley!" Shit. "Fred!" She specified when the four of us turned at the call of our surname, almost jogging in my direction. "Can we talk?"

"Go ahead, darling." I prompted her without moving from my seat.

"In private?"

"Nah," I begged Godric for her not to see behind my grin the panic that produced me the mere thought of being left alone with her.

"Are you joking?" She huffed and, after taking a deep breath, she spoke. I wasn't expecting her to speak. "So you see, you're cheeky and stupid and not nearly as funny as you think." Ginny spit her pumpkin juice due to Y/n's harsh words. "but I... ugh! Okay— I want to kiss you too."

This time it was Ron who choked on his drink. "What's going on?"

"I feel like we missed an important part of this conversation." George commented.

This time it was Y/n who awaited for an answer. "This is literally the most embarrassing thing ever, so at least say something." She commanded in a rather rude tone, tapping her shoe against the floor.

I winced ever so slightly at the effort of getting up, but it was worth it when I saw her expression as I towered her; I reckon I had never seen her that sheepish before.

"That's a really mean way of saying you're attracted to me." I observed, quirking a brow at her. "Dunno why I fancy you so much."

"Well that makes the two of us." I couldn't help but chuckle at her attitude before cupping her cheeks and bring her lips to mine.

Finally.

Despite being a short, innocent kiss, was enough to make us both blush and grin like idiots.

"Awww" I rolled my eyes at my twin's mockery, knowing damn well I wouldn't hear the end of it.

"Why do I feel like I'm gonna miss you two being at each other's throat?" I couldn't care less about Ron's question as Y/n pulled me down for another kiss.

Almost bleeding to death seemed worth it in that moment.

Fic: Talent Show (OFMD)

Hi there, don't mind me, I just made a quick Tumblr account while I wait for my AO3 account invite. This is dumb, unbeta’d and mostly an excuse to write silly dialogue. Hopefully someone enjoys it! Title: Talent Show Pairing: Stede/Ed Rating: R? Explicit content but not very explicitly described. Plenty of foul language from Ed, because pirate Summary:  “At the risk of jinxing things,” Stede said. “I feel like we’re back on an even keel.” “If we weren’t, we’d all be drowning,” Ed said. Ed broaches a sensitive topic with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. A silly, post fix-it PWP ficlet.

Talent Show

“At the risk of jinxing things,” Stede said. “I feel like we’re back on an even keel.”

“If we weren’t, we’d all be drowning,” Ed said.

“Not literally, I mean the two of us. I think we’re moving on after everything that’s happened. Water under the bridge, you know?”

“Lotta water metaphors.”

Stede grimaced. “I can’t seem to stop… do you agree?”

“Yeah, I agree, you seem to be stuck on a water theme.”

“No, about us. Do you think we’re alright?”

Ed scratched his neck. His fingertips came away smudged with kohl, despite his soak in Stede’s bath.

“I haven’t tried stabbing you in a while,” Ed said.

“It’s been good practice for me anyway, all the dodging.”

“Sorry, it’s force of habit.”

“It was my fuck up Ed, I’d say I’m getting off lightly.”

Stede gave him one of those searching looks.

“What?” Ed said. “I know I’m still beardless, it’ll take a while to grow back.”

“Just… seeing you here, in the mornings, when I wake up. I’m not sure I’ll ever get used to it.”

The way Stede’s eyes crinkled made something scurry nervously about inside Ed’s chest.

“About that,” Ed said, stretching under the covers. “Do you wanna bugger?”

Stede wrinkled his nose. “Ed, we’re having a nice moment!”

“I know, I’m just trying to get the lie of the land.”

“Ah! A land metaphor from the seafarer!”

“Yeah, yeah, but, do you?”

“Do I-” The words seemed to get stuck in Stede’s throat.

“Do you wanna bugger? It’s alright if you just want to keep holding hands, I’m only trying to figure out-”

“I’m sorry, Ed. It’s just, I don’t think, I’m not a fan of the whole-” Stede gestured vaguely behind himself.

“Of the dick up your arse?”

“Ed.”

“But that’s what you mean by-” Ed mimicked the gesture.

“I’m really sorry. If that’s a deal breaker, I totally-”

“Not at all. I want you to bugger me, so that works out great.”

Ed yawned while Stede gawped.

“You,” Stede said.

“Yeah?”

“You want-”

“This is a very unmodern attitude coming from you, Stede.”

“It’s just you are- you were- you sometimes still sort of are-”

“Blackbeard, I’m aware.”

“Does this mean people have buggered Blackbeard?”

“No, that’s the problem,” Ed sighed. “They all expect me to be bending them in half. Gets really boring, sometimes you just want a bit of attention.”

Stede still looked like he was processing it all.

“And when you say all,” Stede said carefully. “Who is-”

“I haven’t been keeping a list.”

“Calico?”

“Yeah, of course. And Izzy.”

“Izzy?” Stede squawked.

“What? It’s the middle of the ocean, it was bound to happen.”

Stede looked deflated as he looked out of a porthole. “I see.”

“But that’s not why I want to get buggered by you.”

“Please can we call it something else? Love making, perhaps?”

Ed pulled a face. “That’s not why I want to do this with you. I want to do it because, you know, because we, I-”

Stede cut him off with an enthusiastic kiss.

“But you’re sure?” Stede said.

“I’ve nearly had my nuts blown off by a musket before, it’s not that big a deal.”

“It’s just… it’s quite personal, laying yourself bare like that.”

Ed felt himself flush. “Well, now it feels like that! It didn’t before!”

“Sorry. It’s fine, it’s just a casual little fuck. Just some casual fuckery, whatever you fancy.”

“Stop talking and kiss me again.”

Stede obliged.

“Let me go get myself ready,” Ed muttered against his lips. “I'll back in a minute.”

When he returned, Stede was gripping the bed covers with white knuckles, smile clearly intended to look casual.

“Ready when you are,” Ed said, leaving his clothes in a puddle on the floor as he got back in bed.

“Wow, that was quick. Did you just-”

“The mechanics of it aren’t the sexy part,” Ed said as he climbed onto Stede’s lap. “Unless you’re into that?”

“No, I’m impressed, more than anythi-oh and-you’re-on-there!”

“Sorry, sort of assumed that’s what we were going for,” Ed said breathlessly as he sank down the full length of him. Stede whimpered as he gripped Ed’s thighs.

“You alright?” Ed said, hands on Stede’s shoulders. “Not about to croak on me?”

“I’m not that old.”

“Not old, just excited.”

“Excited. Delighted. Delirious.”

Ed set a rhythm, not fast but deep.

“Oh my god,” Stede gasped.

“Good?”

Stede nodded, mouth agape.

“Grab my arse,” Ed panted. “Show me what you like.”

Stede obeyed, gripping tight as he began to rock his hips up into Ed’s.

Ed let his head loll, breath hitching. “Yeah, like that.”

“You feel-”

Ed cut him off with a kiss, then a groan, then something approaching laughter.

“Do you want me to-” Stede reached for Ed’s dick.

“No need, just keep it up.”

Stede didn’t need telling twice. Ed wrapped his arms tight around his back, eyes rolling with it.

“We can finish on all fours,” Ed whispered in his ear. “Might be easier on your thighs.”

“Thanks.” They swiftly rearranged. “It’s a good reminder though, I should do more leg exercises.”

“I can show you some, if you like.”

“Thanks, if you wouldn’t mind.”

“No problem but you don’t get back to fucking me I’m gonna castrate you.”

“Understood!”

Ed pressed his face into the pillow until he felt like he was being smothered, one ear cocked and listening to Stede’s grunts. He was everywhere: inside and all around Ed.

It was too much to bear. Ed’s knees buckled as he came. Stede followed suit with a gasp.

Stede laid down beside him and gave his arm a frantic shake. “Oh no, Ed? Are you alright? I’ve not hurt you, have I?”

Ed gave him a sluggish pat on the arm. “Don’t flatter yourself too much.”

The tension faded from Stede’s face, replaced with a combination of wonder and amusement.

“You really enjoyed it then? You look like you’ve melted!”

Ed made no effort to solidify. “Liked it a lot. Sorry about all the spunk.”

“Oh, no worries, there’s more bed linens. We can always… well, we should probably burn these.”

“Probably.” Ed leaned into Stede’s hand as it moved to stroke his back.

“You know, the fact that you don’t need any, uh, assistance, in the front, so to speak,” Stede said. “That’s quite the talent.”

Ed’s smug smile rapidly turned into a frown. “Wait: talent. Hang on, aren’t we supposed to be-”

There was a weary sigh at the door. Before they could protest, Lucius poked his head inside their quarters.

“Yeah, yeah, you’re naked and sweaty, whatever, I don't care,” he grimaced. “Look, I didn’t survive nearly drowning so I could listen to that sort of thing, so if you could kindly put a damn sock on the door next time.”

“Yes Lucius.”

“Sorry Lucius.”

“Thank you. If you're quite finished, stick some clothes on and watch this bloody rescheduled talent show before I throw my finger at you.”

My thoughts on Ninjago the Island!!! 🏝🏝🏝

So, gotta be honest... this is not a Blind reaction thing, I actually watched it in French first so I know most of the stuff already 😅 It's entertaining, it got great animation, but nothing more than that in my opinion 🤷‍♀️

Still there is stuff I liked or I want to point out, and finally I'm seeing the English version so I can actually understand what the HECK they are saying 🤩

Alright, nothing else to say, here we go!

UNCHARTED

I haven't actually seen anything Clutch Powers related before Ninjago, is he always like this? I love that he is a jerk honestly, just wondering 😂

Press F for respect for intern Dwaine (at least he seems to like being... used?)

Clutch: It's just a bunch of rocks! It's not alive!

Totem: I'm about to end this man's whole career

Wait, Misako is part of the explorers club? ... that would have come in handy in season 11 to get the scroll of Forbitten Spinjitzu from the club instead of begging uncle Powers for it... *sighs* I don't mind plot holes in Ninjago like most fans I think, but if you wanna make Misako relevant again at least pay attention to the details 😅

Wow, after the end of season 13 I would've thought Wu was going to go through a midlife crisis, not Misako 😂😂

Oww, everytime I hear I get 😢 Bless your soul Kirby, always in our hearts 🖤🖤🖤

Well hello Brian

Always nice to see you 😊

Twitchy Tim must have been pretty interesting to voice 🤔 I like him enough, he's fun and all, maybe not at the level of the characters we got last season

Okay, the place is called the STORM belt, there are LIGHTNINGS, and the sand of the beach is BLUE. Are we gonna address any of these similarities to our Bluebell here or not? 😅

Wait, Tim was giving a hot air balloon tour, does that mean other people where with him? What of them? Are they dead? Did he let them die on the island?... am I reading too much into this? Probably 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Alright, the part of the boats? SO COOL 🤩🤩 I literally can't say anything bad about the animation at this point

Why did they think leaving Kai, Jay and Cole on one boat was going to be a good idea 😂 Also Zane just randomly doing sick tricks on his vehicle, love that nindroid

I'm guessing Nya is keeping her water abilities for her season 🤷‍♀️

Yep, yep, this is why the creators try to keep Pixal out of the adventures, with her everything is way too cool and easy to access to 😎😎

Twitchy Tim: There are statues that become alive!!

Lloyd:... so it's a season 2 stone army ripoff, we've seen worse

It's a cute episode overall 👍

THE KEEPERS OF THE AMULET

OKAY THE INTRO IS SO FREAKING COOL 🤩🤩🤩🤩

So Twitchy Tim has temporarily taken over Jay's role of spazzing out and complain about worse case scenarios... in another occasion they might have bonded over this, maybe 😂

Okay, survival position? MOOD

Nya: DRAGOOON 😱

Me: DRAGOOOOOOON 😍😍😍

Why am I not surprised that Jay was the one that named him Zippy? 💙 Also HE'S SO CUTE 💕💕💕 Love how in every adventure, we always get very different types of dragon in this show 👌 I'm a simple person, I see a dragon... 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Oh-oh, it's the "Lloyd's done with this crap"'s face

This means serious business... am I that used to LEGO characters that this way of crossing arms on the chest looks almost normal to me? 😅

Soooo, Master of the Mountain clearly gave Cole too much development... because now he got demoted to "the one who is always hungry" 🤦‍♀️ I'm all for Cole's endearing love for cakes, which is super relatable, but if you're gonna push it on his fun side, at least be coherent 🙃

Is it just me or it feels like the writing of this special was made by someone different from the one of season 13? Like, it's not bad, just less engaging and witty. For now. Maybe I'm being premature 🤷‍♀️

New way of nerfing powers, we got... weird, sucking power totem thingies... OKAY

My gosh I really can't say anything about the animation, look at that! It's all cinematic with such a light! YES!! 🤩

I'M SORRY

WHY ARE WE LOOKING OVER THIS??? IT LOOKS LIKE COLE'S LAVA PUNCHES BUT THEY ARE JAY LIGHTNING FEET??? IT'S A GREAT IDEA AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT AGAIN??? WHY ARE WE IGNORING THIS??? 💙💙💙💙

So they at least addressed that lightning isn't a Jay's thing only anymore 😅

Alright, Jay having a mental breakdown because of a bridge because it always breaks, that's the Bluebell I know and love 😂😂 Nya telling him to keep moving was cute too 💙❤💙❤

Okay, I'm sorry but this really bothers me, what kind of lightning can instantly knock out the MASTER OF LIGHTNING??? Like, my gosh, really??? I hope they give us an explanation, like it's some sort of special lightning, because this really doesn't sit right with me. Jay is lightning proof, we've seen it in Skybound, we've seen it in Sons of Garmadon, I DON'T BELIEVE HE WOULD JUST BE KNOCKED OUT LIKE THAT 😡😡😡

Soooooo, storm amulet? Being one with the lightning? Is that the reason why Jay got to be the sacrifice? 😅

THE GIFT OF JAY

Alright, I am kinda looking forward for this one, what did Bluebell actually say or do to get him into trouble this time 😂😂

Oh, he just... introduced himself... well that was underwhelming

SENSEI👏YOU👏ARE👏A👏FREAKING👏GOD👏STOP👏GETTING👏KIDNAPPED👏BY👏RANDOM👏VILLAINS👏

Bring ooooon Lloyd Grills 💪

Okay I did like the little speech, definitely resonates with how Lloyd survived this long even though everything wanted him to give up, even his father... I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING 😭

Jay out there making the real questions 😂

Awwww Edna used to call him gift of Jay? I can totally see it, so cute 💙💙 Makes even more sense if Libber actually left Jay at the Walkers' door...

Pff, Jay made the connection I would've done honestly 🤷‍♀️ Like, him being the master of lightning really didn't give these dudes any impression or inspiration? Any cool idea, full Road of El Dorado style? 🙃🙃

Lloyd out there abusing of the animation budget 💚💚💚

Somehow these ninja never actual sneak in, it's always a huge mess everyone knows about beforehand 😂 It's familiar though, I'm used to it and happy with it 👍

I might not be the biggest Misako fan, but you know what I am a fan of?

LEGO HUGS 😍😍😍😍😍

Dang it uncle Powers, you just got here to make a mess did you 😅

Not the first person of the fandom to say this, but Jay looks absolutely lovely with that flower crown 🌺🌺🌺

Oh poor greenie

Lloyd just has the worst luck 😓

Jay: Why would I be the gift?

Kai: Yeah who would want Jay?

Nya: Huh, me?? 😡

Got some very good Jaya for this little special, can't complain 💙❤💙❤

I mean, not matter how big of a snake Wojira might turn out to be, we've already seen the biggest and the second biggest snake of all so 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Whoa, at last... IT WAS THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER THAT HAD SOMETHING HE SHOULD'VE TOLD WU A LONG TIME AGO!! 😱 Wu, you got pulled a Wu, how does it feel? 😂

Again, Jay freaking out, kinda my jam it's too funny 💙💙

Wow Kai way to be hominous offscreen 👏👏 I miss talking about my flame babe, this really isn't his time 🤷‍♀️

THE TOOTH OF WOJIRA

So when I first watched this I was genuinely, really excited about knowing the truth behind all this. It turned out very different from what I first thought, but at least in this case it's okay (besides I was pushing with the lightning meaning just to see Libber again 😅😅😅)

I feel like the guys get their powers stolen or blocked so much it takes them a minute to remember "Oh wait I can literally burn my way out" 🤷‍♀️

SPINJITZU YAY 🤩

I... forgot that Misako knows how to fight 😅 She knows how to do spinjitzu too if I remember correctly...

NYA BEING LIKE "OUT OF THE WAY IMMA SAVE MY BOYFRIEND AGAIN" ❤💙❤💙

Gotta love how they were all crazy worried about Jay, like, this is something that never changes through the show. They really care so so much for each other 💕💕💕

Ooohhhh, okay, so Wojira does seem to be the main villain of next season according to the story. I remember Tommy saying that we needed to have faith and this is probably why. The special was okay, nothing too much, and hopefully that too much we will see in Nya's season 😍😍😍

What the- pff, I didn't notice this the first time 😂

At this point I can't tell if that one short with the chicken of the movie carried a hate or a love for chickens in the actual show 😂😂

Nice to see Jay standing up for himself at least for a little while 💪 Also Lloyd being "He's our trouble", aww family 💜

THERE IT IS

MY BRUISE HEART IS SOARING 🖤💙🖤💙

Gotta give props to the voice actors, voicing an explanation while fighting must be pretty hard! WE ARE BLESSED WITH AN AMAZING CAST!!! 🤩🤩🤩

And there he is, our favorite jerk... shaved Ronin 😂 He does look a little weird, but it's fair, new animation and all. Not the weirdest until now 🤷‍♀️

I genuinely had to make a mental check to see where we are with Ronin now, like, he started as a villain, then a partner, he betrayed us, became an ally, he hunted the ninja, then joined them, that timeline was erased, he was around in SoG and... wow this man is chaotic 😂😂

Yaaaay, Twitchy's last minute redemption act! Lloyd is too good at motivational speeches 👏👏

A bit of Lava OTP/BrOTP

Cause it's good for the heart ❤🖤❤🖤

Okay, Scooby doo reference, why not? Also honestly, I'm confident Ronin has seen A LOT of jails and prisons... probably won't stay behind bars for long 😅

Mammatus: sorry for imprisoning you and almost killing your friend

Kai: no biggie, that's how we make friends in this show

Alright the "And Clutch Powers" gag made me chuckle 😂 ... wait where is he- DANG IT UNCLE POWERS

Okay, this is the last time I say it I promise, but I mean. I MEAN

THE ANIMATION GUYS 😍😍😍

Aaaaand sensei you jinxed it 😅 But you apparently awakened Nya's season so I'm gonna forgive you on this one 😉

FINAL THOUGHTS

There are a few little details that bothered me a little, and it wasn't as exciting as I maybe hoped it was going to be, but it was fine. Enjoyable still. These characters make me like the show, even when it got nothing too impactful 🤷‍♀️

But I got triggered about that lightning thing with Jay 😅 I guess I'll just fanfic whatever I had in mind...

Don't have to repeat myself about the animation *chef's kiss*

The writing was really less engaging, a little normal in a way? Idk just a feeling. Nice to see Ronin again though, I really like him. And nice to see Jay freaking out, I really like that too 😂

To be honest I wanted to put down my thoughts on this one because I REALLY wanna do the same with Nya's season 🤩🤩 I already know that Maya is gonna be there and I am so HAPPY already!!! ���💙💙

So that's it from me! Thank you for reading me ranting, see you next season! 😊
