#but I’m putting that in my headcanon arsenal now

Will, how you feeling about Shaggy from Scooby Doo being your new face claim?

Wh… What’s this about Shaggy and I? I’m… not up to date with slang, unlike Glitchtrap.

Shaggy’s playing you in a new movie. He’s the actor I was so flustered about.

…Sh-Shaggy’s going to portray me?

Yes.

*Glitchtrap, it’s probably not even the Shaggy he knows—*

Shhh. Let him have this. As a mutual treat.

I… have no idea what to say. I—In a positive way, of course! The Mystery Machine Gang was a guilty pleasure of mine in my late teens, so to have one of them play me in some feature film…

Oh dear, now look what you’ve done, Altas! My face is all red!

Heh. As if it wasn’t that rosy in the first place…

What I’m trying to say is— I’m strangely flattered. Glad to see that Norville’s finally put his athletic training to good use. …Norville?

Here's the thing that's niggled at me about Emily as Unit Chief in seasons 12 to 15. I love Emily as Unit Chief but at the same time, I don't think the writers dialed in Emily as Unit Chief.

The times when she's really great as Unit Chief were when she laid down the law like never losing another team member to Scratch ever again. Or the time after the team seemed to be spinning out and Emily put her foot down and gave the team their marching orders.

It felt in the first years Emily was reluctant to always play the team leader card. She's okay delegating but didn't want to have the distance that comes with the position.

And then Evolution happens and I love that between seasons 15 and 16, Emily became more comfortable with her power. It's become like a second skin. She can joke around but also snap to becoming the Unit Chief/Team leader.

I think she's learned to calibrate the dials between leader and friend. And can now easily slip into being a good friend and a leader.

Emily's time as Section Chief honed those skills and she's more free using lies and manipulation as tools in her arsenal.

It’s a big departure from Hotch’s leadership style.

Hotch had a problem with Jordan lying to a family to get results. Emily quizzed Hotch about this. Hotch outlined why it bothered him (Inget his point but also I found his reasons flimsy). Emily followed Hotch’s rule and for the duration she worked with the team and he was her Unit Chief, Emily kept to it.

Also, a few years out of spy work / undercover work, Emily was also not keen on lying to get results. She wanted something “clean”.

But after time in London, Emily became comfortable with her capabilities and the reality that she is good walking the gray margins. As long as she could protect her team.

I also think it’s a mark of how comfortable she’s become with them that she’s more open showing her hand about lying or manipulating people.

(See: Openly manipulating Jill into going back into the BAU.)

Also, I think a big part why Emily feels more like she’s got team leader down is Paget Brewster infusing more swagger to Emily.

The Costume department finally nailed down Emily's look as Unit Chief. Her clothes in 200 were posh. But when Emily took over as Unit Chief in season 12, it felt like they couldn’t make up their mind.

Some of her outfits during that time were too casual for her role as BAU Unit Chief.

And then Evolution started and Emily started wearing more suits.

And it worked!

I hated the wig they used for Emily in seasons 14 onwards when Paget had such a stylish bob!

Paget's real hair looked 1000% better than the wigs!

(Speaking of bad hair -- what... why is Tara Lewis's hair in season 16 hair.... styled that way? It was also not great.)

TLDR, I’m glad the writers finally got Emily’s leadership style. My personal headcanon is that in London while she was friendly with her staff there was a palpable distance between her and the teams she ran.

And, it was lonely. It’s why when she was asked to takeover the BAU Emily leapt up at the chance. But she didn’t want the same distance and the BAU team were her family, so she had a little trouble balancing the dials of close friendship and being the Boss.

She didn’t want it to go too far into how she ran the London office. I think the promotion to Section Chief and some members moving to different departments and leaving also allowed Emily to reevaluate. Running different teams helped Emily do that, as well as juggling her job and jumping through Bailey’s hoops.

okay time for some darkwing headcanons:

drake is super bi with no preference and he’s huge in denial about it so he’s convinced himself he just keeps launchpad around because it’s good for his ego. i’ve also seen the trans headcanon around a lot and WHEW yeah. there ain’t nothing cis about that man

launchpad is also bi. i think he has a preference to guys and a lot of his friends are raging lesbians. idk how to explain it i just feel like at least half of his mentioned “old girlfriends” are his lesbian buds from biker gangs or bowling clubs or whatever launchpad gets up to in his free time. cue the “wait a minute, there’s something bothering me about this place… i know! this lesbian bar doesn't have a fire exit!” bit etc etc

gosalyn is going to grow up to be a badass she/they lesbian with rage issues and we’re so proud of her <3

morgana is also a lesbian and my good pal @leo-undrgrnd here put it marvelously

morgana experiencing some compulsive hetero behavior with drake of this i am positively certain

megavolt got some serious tboy energy going on. also gay. source: i feel it in me bones

quackerjack is gay and equipped with an arsenal of clown themed pronouns the likes of which you could not possibly begin to imagine. his gender is wild and incomprehensible and honk intends to make it everyone’s problem

bushroot has got to realize he’s actually a woman sooner or later. for now he’s just obsessed with earning respect from his toxic peers and hooboy the self reflection and personal revelations are going to take a while at this rate

as for the liquidator imma be real i have No idea. he gives me agender vibes tbh? like a he/him with absolutely no attachment to gender whatsoever. probably responds to anything

ngl i don’t spend much time thinking abt negaduck but i’d say he’s pretty much just like drake in most respects

gizmoduck is like?? straight trans man maybe? it’s hard to tell bc i haven’t seen much of this verison of him yet and his character is pretty simple so far so idk. it’s free real estate as far as i’m concerned

perhaps more hcs to come as i watch more of the show and i will probably be updating some of these tbh. it’s too early to tell for some of them

Reiner Braun NSFW Headcanons

Throwing out my read on some NSFW hcs for Reiner because I love the man. As with anything I write, he’s a grown ass man here (post-time skip!)

Also this ended up so fucking long but I spend a lot of time thinking about Reiner Braun lmao

NOT SFW/18+ ONLY UNDER THE CUT!

Reiner loves making out. Like loves loves loves it. He’d happily kiss you for hours on end, and his kisses are enough to make you melt. 

He pulls you flush against him when you’re making out, and loves holding your face or lightly brushing his fingers along your cheek. He goes between slow languid kisses - tongue moving against yours, his deep moans echoing in your mouth - to soft gentle pecks with his forehead pressed to yours. He will honestly kiss you til you’re soaking wet and both of your lips are swollen. 

Speaking of, he has a big thing for grinding. He loves having you cum on his thigh or hip - it just blows his mind that he can get you so worked up that you’ll cum through clothes and he gets butterflies in his stomach every time you come undone beneath him. Basically, given the time to during a session with Reiner he’ll have you cumming before you even get undressed. (and lowkey, he’s definitely cum in his pants while just making out). Oh, and he loves having you leave hickeys on them. He cherishes them and gets the warm n’ fuzzies anytime he looks at them after one of your long make out sessions. 

Big on praise: both giving and receiving. If you suck his cock he’ll be babbling his praises the whole time: holding your hair back for you if he needs to, telling you how good you’re making him feel, thanking you every time you let the tip of his large cock breach the tight seal of your throat. On the flip side he loves having you tell him how good he is, you can talk him right into a quick orgasm with your praise - he loves to know he’s your good boy. Loves little non-verbal things too, nods and hums of affirmation as he moves his tongue just right against you. 

This brings me to oral sex. Reiner’s need to please alone has him right on my Official AoT Men Who Eat Pussy Like a Champ roster, but this man has a fat tongue that doesn’t get tired. He’ll groan right into you just from how much he loves getting a taste, and you’ll drive him absolutely wild if you rock against his face or lock your legs around his head to keep his face buried. His goal is to leave you shaking and if his face isn’t a mess he isn’t done. Fav positions for eating you out are this, this, and this. Especially the last one. He’s a strong lad with a thick fucking neck, so don’t worry about hurting him if you sit on his face.

I’m sorry y’all but I hc Reiner as having a serious submissive streak running through him, I just do! I’ll get into that more in a bit but firstly: he can be a switch, though even when he’s taking a more dominant role he’s the most attentive dom and a big softie. Every move is still at your behest and the goal always remains your pleasure. He’s constantly checking in on you, watching your face and listening closely for even the smallest sign of discomfort. A dream dom in a caregiver type role, but he still needs the release of submission.

You can coax a feral side out of Reiner, especially if you show enthusiasm for his actions and assure him it’s what you truly want. Put his hand on your throat, moan when he squeezes lightly, and he’ll be easily encouraged to fuck you harder. He can and will get as rough as you like as long as you’re showing him how much you love it. In general though he won’t initiate anything like choking or face slapping unless you ask or discuss it beforehand - in all honesty he’d be terrified if he did something like that and actually hurt you. Reiner is definitely the type to go soft as soon as you let out of yelp of genuine discomfort (or show you’re no longer enjoying any kind of pain you’ve asked him to inflict) so he tends to play it safe. 

The silver lining of this is that he’s so intensely aware of your every reaction. He’ll notice the way your eyes change when he playfully slaps your ass or jokingly calls you something (like “Prince/Princess” or, thanks to the random Reiner dream my brain blessed me with, “Little Mouse”) and he’ll file even the smallest reaction away to bring out later. He’s an overall attentive lover in that way, and knows when to pull out the things in his arsenal that make you wild.

Now. Sub Reiner. Sweet tender sub Reiner. He loves having you tell him what to do, when to cum, when to wait. Even if you’re in the middle of more vanilla play, tell him to cum for you and he will immediately. 

He loves being overstimulated as well, keep going after he finishes and he’ll be squirming and whining in the most delicious way - and play with his nipples! This man is blessed with sensitive nipples and could almost cum from nipple stim alone. 

He loves begging too, begging to be touched, begging to fuck you, begging to cum, or even begging you make you cum - he loves it all. He just wants to make you happy, just wants you to tell him he’s good. 

Aftercare is an absolute must for Reiner too if he’s been submissive. When he crashes he crashes hard, and needs your comfort afterwards to round off a session properly. He loves having his hair washed by you (and secretly has a sensitive scalp) but as long as you curl up with him to cuddle and kiss him til he falls asleep he’s more than happy. 

He gives as good as he gets when it comes to aftercare too. He’ll check in about anything new you may have tried, making sure you liked it or were happy with how it felt. If he’s had you in an uncomfortable position he’ll stretch you out and rub your muscles to make sure you aren’t stiff or sore, and he really loves running a hot bath for you or helping you wash up afterwards too. He finds scrubbing your back or finger detangling your hair in the shower or tub soothing, and having you clean and comfortable in bed with your head on his chest lets him know he’s done a good job.

Good Vlad AU (Vlad’s Powers)

Alright, before we get started I’m going to be discussing canon Vlad’s powers a bit because there’s something I found interesting while researching them. Now, I do remember that in the show there were times when Vlad used ecto-energy that was a different color than his trademark pink energy, but I didn’t realize just how many he used. And sure while these might only be graphical errors in the show or inconsistency in general, I’d like to think there’s more to it. If not, then they just look cool! Lets take a look at them shall we?

First up we have Vlad’s first appearance in the show in “Bitter Reunions,” Vlad used a combination of green energy and the pink energy we’re more familiar with. Most likely they only changed the main color of his attacks to make him stand out from Danny, but it’s still interesting all the same!

Next up we see Vlad using blue energy in the episode “Maternal Instinct” which  must be a sign because I wrote a whole re-imagining of that episode for my Good Vlad AU (https://thesoulspulse.tumblr.com/post/662310410203152385/good-vlad-au-maternal-instinct-re-imagined) AND I’ve been thinking of having my Good Vlad use white/blue ecto-energy for his attacks too!

And finally, while this is still pretty close to Vlad’s classic pink energy, in “Reign Storm” Vlad is seen here using purple energy so that’s pretty cool!

Alright, so that said I wondering if it would be cool if my Good Vlad’s energy is white but can change colors depending on the type of attack he’s trying to do? Such as for example, green could be standard/neutral ghost energy, and the energy gets more powerful from there going from blue, to pink, to purple, and then finally red? I know we don’t see Vlad use red energy attacks but canon Vlad does have glowing red eyes. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this theory before in the amazing fanfic “Checkmate” by pearl84, so credit goes to them or whoever came up with a headcanon like this first!

That said, I’m going to be putting my own spin to it and also say that the color effects emotions too like...the purple and red energy could indicate how ‘dark’ or ‘evil/hostile’ you feel which makes it hard to control unless you have a lot of experience for it such as the Fright Knight or Pariah Dark. With that in mind I imagine my Good Vlad tends to hover between mainly using blue and purple energy mainly because as good as he is he can be a bit selfish, possessive, and quick to anger at times even if its for a good reason. He just deeply cares about the few people in his life that make it a little less lonely, so if pushed too far Vlad can lose control if someone he loves gets badly hurt, especially Danny.

That’s just one idea I’m considering though so I’m not sure if that will be canon to this AU yet, and if I decide against it we’ll stick to him using the white/blue energy primarily. Anyways, lets move on to Vlad’s powers based on what I plan to expand on in this AU. I’ll skip over most of Vlad’s basic powers though like changing from ghost to human and all that though since those are kind of a given at this point of ghost abilities that he’d still have access to.

Ecto-energy Redirection: First up we have this sick move which Vlad literally only used once. He caught Danny’s ecto-energy attack and redirected it right at him! THAT has a lot of potential I think! And what’s funny is, Danny Phantom came out in 2004 but in 2005 Avatar The Last Airbender did and now I keep picturing Good Vlad doing something epic like redirecting Lightning the same way Zuko does:

So yeah, that’s one power I’d really love to add to Vlad’s arsenal that wasn’t explored in the show further than that first episode we see him use it or meet Vlad at all.

Ecto-Energy Shield & Constructs: I’m combining these two since it’s basically a crystalized form of ecto-energy that is much more dense and therefore more heavily reinforced which I imagine isn’t as easy to pull off as canon Vlad makes it out to be. Plus, I’m gonna be honest, I mostly just want an excuse to see Vlad use a sword again in battle so I’d love to add that as part the canon for this version of him. As in Vlad has been professionally trained in many styles of swordsmanship, mainly fencing (cause rich people just always seemed to get into that as a trope) and medieval combat since he has a soft spot for ghostly historic artifacts and history in general.

Power Augmentation: I’m going to redefine this so what Vlad basically does is overcharge his energy attacks which can take a bit longer to charge up but packs a twice as powerful attack. However, it also drains him twice as much so this has be be used sparingly even for him.

Money, Power, Connections and Influence: Ok, this one isn’t a literal ghost power so I’m kinda cheating a little, but consider this. In the show, Vlad IS confirmed to be the richest man in the WORLD right? Think about that for a second. Sure in the show we see him cheat his way to power, cut corners, and lord over people with his power and wealth, but what if Danny (and indirectly his parents too) had Good Vlad’s full support and access to all his resources?

What if Uncle Vlad could help out our hero from the sidelines by offering information that a normal teenager wouldn’t just be able to find online or read in a book? Like for example, having a text about a certain ghost in his personal library or sharing with Danny and his friends his latest inventions which unlike Danny’s parents are made from higher quality tech often made by Vlad personally since this version wouldn’t be stealing ideas from Jack and Maddie. He doesn’t have to, he’s just as brilliant if not more so than the two of them combined? Plus has plenty of connections not only in the real world, but also in the Ghost Zone so anything Danny could ever possibly need to figure out which big bad he’s fighting would literally be at his fingertips...

All he has to do, is ask for it.

Yep, easy as that because THIS Vlad considers Jack a friend again and respects Maddie as a fellow scientist so after meeting Danny all he wanted was the chance to be close to him since he feels like they have a special bond as the only half-ghosts in the world. Vlad still considers Danny a son, but he’d never ask him to leave his friends and family behind unless it was for their own safety. Even then, he’d invite them into the safety of his mansion/castle long before things got to that point.

Teleportation: I felt like this was worth mentioning on the list because it’s kind of another trademark move of Vlad’s so of course I gotta keep it in!

Ghost Core: This is a phandom thing based on something Frostbite says to Danny but this part is a bit tricky since we don’t know for sure what core Vlad might have in canon or which one I should give him in this AU so lets see what the options are:

Electric Core: Considering how many times Danny gets ‘zapped’ by canon Vlad it seems like this is the most likely candidate. However, that would mean that Good Vlad would have some immunity as a result from electrical attacks which may be a bit overpowered, although it would be fun to play with the idea that his powers even now still cause disturbances when upset or angry like making things short out, causing televisions to show only white noise/static, his voice being heard over the radio or phone like it’s being projected, that sort of thing.

Fire Core: Some of canon Vlad’s attacks look like fire so this could work too, but Good Vlad would use this really cool white fire which just looks pretty and very ghostly. So when he gets too upset or angry, stuff starts to burn or the room temperature rises. I kind of use this to explain his ghost sense, like his comes out as hot air which isn’t visible like Danny’s so it’s like when you inhale steam only he exhales it.

Heat Core (Both): Lastly, this idea is just to kinda combine the two ATLA style where Lightning and Fire are just two sides of the same coin. However, that would mean Danny has the opposite, a Cold Core, which would technically mean he could use water-based attacks in my opinion sort of like aquakinesis which is described as the psychic or supernatural ability to manipulate water, but I’m getting off topic so lets leave that for you to ponder.

Weaknesses: That’s about all I have for now on the ghost power end of things, I know I skipped over a lot of them, but for the most part just assume that Good Vlad still HAS all the same powers as canon Vlad. The biggest difference here is that he uses them mostly for Danny’s benefit, not his detriment or against him. Still, Good Vlad has a lot of weaknesses too. The characters in this show can get really overpowered, but often times, what takes them down is their own hubris...

After all, Vlad wouldn’t be Vlad if he wasn’t still a bit childish and overconfident.

Admittedly, Good Vlad ended up cutting some corners to get where he is today as far as his wealth is concerned too but unlike canon Vlad he didn’t resort to theft. However, with that in mind the only thing that actually stopped him from giving into that temptation to make things easier for himself was worrying about what Jack and Maddie might think of him if they ever found out he did something so underhanded. And he didn’t want his old friends to lose faith in him. Still, apart from that Vlad doesn’t really have any good role models in his life or friends who were close to him at that point to let him know when he’s going too far...

Once Vlad was basically left to his own devices with no one to stop him, he grew accustomed to just doing whatever he damn well pleased with his new ghost powers. Vlad didn’t have a whole town to protect, parents to hide from, none of the stuff Danny has to deal with so he could basically get away with stuff completely scot-free since ghosts just aren’t common knowledge to anyone where he lives. He’s like a spoiled child that doesn’t know the difference between right and wrong sometimes. Sure, Vlad does a lot of nice things with his money like making donations to animal rescues, saving rain forests, and orphanages, all the classics, but apart from that though Vlad just uses his powers to try and obtain tons of cool magical/ghostly artifacts from all over the world and in the Ghost Zone.

At least, that’s how it went until Danny came into the picture.

Danny is Vlad’s biggest weakness in more ways than one. Vlad cares about him and his family now to an obsessive degree which therefore means he now has something to not only protect...but to lose if his own enemies go after them. Therefore as much of a sweetheart as Good Vlad is, you mess with his ‘family’ and he will END YOU. Most of the time Vlad is very rational and strategic, but when to comes to Danny he’s prone to getting overprotective and truly vicious which brings out a side of him that even scares the man himself sometimes.

So Danny, in exchange for getting a mentor and someone he can turn to for help, is one of the few people that can keep Vlad grounded in reality when that happens. Not to mention Danny helps teach him better ways to use his powers for good the way his friends help him do that. Still, since they’re on the same side Vlad can be a bit of a bad influence too and encourages Danny to use his powers to pull harmless pranks on the classmates that bully him.

It’s one of the ways they like to bond and frankly, Danny’s friends can be killjoys sometimes since they don’t have to deal with the relentlessly bullying that he does on a daily basis just because he comes from a family of ghost hunters. They have it easy, but Vlad? In college he and Jack went through the same thing so Vlad can ACTUALLY relate to Danny’s situation much better. This isn’t the healthiest kind of relationship, but it’s still better than the way canon Vlad kept SAYING he wanted to help, wanted Danny to accept him as a father figure, but never ACTED like one.

Yeah, Ace definitely had conqueror's haki! It was more than just implied in the FB, but also, when Luffy used his in Marineford, Ace said, "You too, Luffy?" Tbh, there's a very simple reason for why Ace never was portrayed as strong as he should have been: Oda wanted him dead, lol. So, he wasn't allowed to come into his full potential like every other character is. (It's why I find any form of powerscaling with Ace ridiculous, especially comparing Sabo and Ace to each other. Ace's purpose in the plot was very specific and it included to never reach the height of power he should have; Sabo doesn't have that restriction.)

But ignoring mangaka's intent, my personal headcanon is: Once he accepted the WBP, Ace didn't actively try to become stronger. Not that he stopped training or anything, but he wasn't captain anymore and more importantly, he had ppl looking out for him (rather than him looking out for and protecting everyone) and wasn't fighting for survival anymore, so he just wanted to enjoy that. (Lol, I just need a better reason for why he didn't become much stronger while with the strongest man alive aside from the reality that Oda simply didn't want him to be - as true as that is, it's unsatisfying 😭😂)

Also, Sabo conqueror's haki when? All of ASL gotta have it 👌

Aahhh god okay this is my thoughts exactly though? Ace was indeed unfairly created with a very important and unfortunate role

Powerscaling is overall stupid because who puts Zoro over Marco? I’m very sorry but even post Wano, Marco claps Zoro to the moon and back and I will not elaborate because y’all know I’m right ❤️

Marco was classified if I recall one of the few men that had a chance versus Blackbeard and yet un the payback war suffered a second loss, now idk if that means Marco 1v1 on BB but he may have been looking out for the remnants of the WBP in that fight

ANYWAY i digress!!! Marco is undervalued in power rankings and I’m tired of people saying he’s not even top tier anymore

When he is, the WGov is LUCKY he’s retiring OF HIS OWN VOLITION!!! sorry this was about Ace I made it briefly about best husbando Marco

The part about him saying “you too?” Went over my head if this is the intention that is so fucking cool thats really awesome, and if this is the case then maybe I can help you out regarding why Ace didn’t look to utilise haki in his fighting arsenal

Potentially because and I do not know if this is the case: he and his crew made it to freakin WANO without haki, its bizarre to be Captain and not use haki imo, maybe Ace was already plenty strong without haki

Maybe Pops said he knows Ace has conquerors and the moment he tried to broach the topic, Ace shut him down like don’t. My father had it, i wanna be less like him

Perhaps this is stupid of Ace to disregard and reject a powerful weapon for the future, but people ALSO FORGET HE HAS EMOTIONS AND A LOT OF ANGST AND MISGIVINGS ABOUT HIS HERITAGE

I also like to think? Ace was so happy with his newly found family that he didnt have the “willpower” needed to even use conquerors effectively, Luffy does have this willpower and honestly with Sabos new title as the fucking flame emperor its also possible he could be gettung conquerors too

Sabo with conq is INSANE to think about this man would have people pissing their innards out because of how fucked up his intentions and will would be

Luffys is more controlled thanks to rayleigh but Aces i presume is activated through desperation

Why didnt he use it in Marineford then? Again plot issue haki wasnt introduced its the same garbage argument i see powerscalers use, the fact is

Luffy dying like that (to the lava loser) wasn’t even desperation for Ace it was reflex and i feel like not even haki can catch up to reflex

Hey do u think you could just do some yan hank x reader :) thank u :)

Hello, and thank you for being the first one to send me a request! And sorry for making you wait for so long, first I thought doing a few headcanons, but soon my ideia became an one-shot, and then it turned out in a full story (sort of, lol). Let's start this tragedy! I hope you enjoy it.

Warning: this story contains a lot murder, description of death, blood, emotional, psychological and physical abuse, kidnapping, unhealthy relationships and behavior, yandere, obsession and others topics. It's not recommended to read it if you are uncomfortable with any of those.

P.s.: if I forgot to put some warning or if you spot any grammatical error, please tell me! I would be thankful.

All the mistakes you made (A Yandere!Hank x reader story)

Chapter I. - Your first mistake.

You kicked and squirmed against the man who held you in a grip that felt like steel, but even though you were giving it your all, your resistance was showing no result. In fact, it looked to him like you were just a rag doll that he was carrying on his shoulder, but it was also because you were weak and heavily injured.

"Let me go, your fucking bastard!" You hissed. No answer. He just continued walking stilly, like if it was the most ordinary thing that ever happened.

But to be truthful, that wasn't the most eccentric thing he'd ever done. Hank was famous for causing large-scale massacres, but you didn't believe in it before, after all, how could a single person destroy entire units by himself and without leaving any witnesses?

You thought it was all a farce, that in reality it was a group that was after all this killing, and they pretended to be only one person to strike fear so nobody would try to counter them. So you ended up accepting the mission to go after that guy called "Hank" in order to investigate further and see if your theory was correct, you were curious to see the truth. That was your first mistake. You were in an arsenal of the A.A.H.W. with other mercenaries and agency members, they apparently managed to locate approximately where his base is and planned to attack in a large number, and they also talked about the possiblity of having a pizza party that might happen after, but you didn't mind too much.

While everyone was getting ready and arming themselves to the teeth, you could hear an explosion noise, followed by gunfire and screams filled of agony. Everything happened so fast that you couldn't ratiocinate correctly.

You quickly obeyed your senses and threw yourself behind a pillar, thus protecting yourself from the barrage of gunfire that followed right after, that covered the entire room in red and yellow. After everyone realized that the enemy had finally run out of ammo, the ones who survived came out of their hiding places and started trying to fight back, but were quickly killed one by one. Picking up an AK-74, you tried to get as far away as possible, knowing that facing danger head-on would be futile.

Going up a staircase and reaching a higher landing, you got behind a container and peeked out to see who the enemies were. As a consequence, taking a fright when realizing that it was just one person, not a group, easily killing several with just a katana in hand. You tried to ignore this fact and focus on the battle, firing and managing to land two shots on him.

Hank rapidly became annoyed, and started to ignore the agents that were going at him and changed his direction to you and the other two snipers who were on your side. For a split second, as he lifted his head to see where the shots were coming from, you could see bloodlust in his eyes, similar to a malicious and hungry animal, it was terrifying.

And then he began to move in a fierce way, brutally slicing anyone on his path to you. You were trying to reload your gun and to back away even more, but he had already gone up the stairs, kicked the closest sniper in the face causing them to hit their head against the wall, instantly killing them. He tried to cut you in half with his katana right away, but you managed to hold the blow using the AK-74 and kicked him in the stomach, pushing him away.

The second sniper tried to shoot him, but Hank managed to ricochet two bullets, hitting them back and in the meantime you bolted behind a wall, he took the gun from the first one he killed, and you started exchanging shots. You got hit twice, once in the shoulder and once in the abdomen, and you ran out of bullets, when he realized that, he went straight towards you and tucked the gun behind his back. You tried to run away, but he had already reached and started to strangle you, he wanted to have the satisfaction of killing you with his bare hands.

You struggled for air, but his grip was stronger, you could see the sadistic urge to kill in him, without showing an ounce of pity.

Just when you thought it was your end, the second soldier shot Hank, before they took their last breath and died in their own blood trail made after they crawled close enough to aim. In the second he momentarily loosened his grip, even though you were still dizzy from the lack of air, you managed to grab the gun from Hank's back after the shot, struck him with it, taking him off you and getting up quickly with the help of the the wall, trying to hold the gun and aim it, shivering from the adrenaline, bruises and out of breath.

"It's over. Just give up already." You demanded.

"You're a really annoying bitch." Hank hissed, still on the floor and with one hand on the left side of his face, where you hit him and cracked the glass of his goggles.

And all of a sudden, just when you thought Hank was finished, he got up, you tried to react but your movements were still slow. He grabbed the gun from your hands, caught you around the neck with his other hand, making you bang your head against the wall and then knocking you to the ground. The impact was so bad that you felt blood seeping from your lips and a tremendous headache, making you whimper in pain. Hank just chuckled at your state.

"Goin' down that easily? You're pathetic." Hank mocked you as he approximated. You tried to creep away but he stepped on your back, stopping you once more. He bent down to look at you closely, your eyes still had the slendor of the desire to fight and survive, an expression on the face from someone that wouldn't give up yet, he loved it. He stopped for a second to think, then continued. "Y'know what? I liked you, just love your type." You tried to process what he told you, but nothing made sense. "I'm keepin' you with me. Stay here." He said as he got off from you, but before shooting one of your legs. What made you scream out loud in pain, the adrenaline of the moment passed causing all the pain to hit you at once, while Hank came down from the platform to kill the rest of the agents, and the A.T.P. soldiers and mags that just arrived.

Everything in you hurts, even breathing, it was hard to relax. You spent a few minutes lying on the floor listening to the gunshots and screams in the background that haunted your ears, sounds that were becoming more muffled as the time passed, and trying to somehow control the pain, however your efforts did not yield results, the burning sensation of your wounds remained and you were struggling to not faint. When your vision started to get blurry, you heard something:

"Hello? Anyone's listening? Hello?" You turned your head to the voice, it was coming from the room that had the radio. "I repeat, anyone's listening?"

Clinging to what you thought was a glimmer of hope, you rise up with difficulty from the ground and began to stumble to the station, almost slipping in your own puddle of blood. After arriving with difficulty in the chamber, you answered. "Yes, (Y/N) talking, it's an emergency." You battled to say, your throat felt like it was on fire.

"What happened?"

"Hank invaded the base, we need units, NOW!" You tried to demand, your voice was still weak.

"It will take some time, we don't have any available next to your location." That irritated you.

"For the fuck sakes, we don't have time--" They hung up, wich made you rage and question if all your efforts were in vain.

You tried to keep your composure, after stopping for a few seconds to calm down, you rummaged around and found some bandages and an adrenaline shot in one of the lockers, which you used to cover the wounds and applied to yourself, now managing to stand up and even walk. And digging a little further you found a knife bag with a knife inside, which you decided to hide in one of your boots, and a pistol that you kept in your hands.

When you left the room, you decided that you were going to run away without anyone noticing, to hell the reward money. Watching your surroundings and hiding behind the containers, you saw that Hank was no longer in sight which made you panic, but you also saw the body of the guy who saved you, you tried to check their pulse, but they were gone.

"Thank you. Rest in peace, my man." You said in respect, while closing their eyes, knowing that if they didn't help, you would be dead. Before getting up and leaving you saw that in their pocket there was a grenade, which you decided to take.

You rushed down the stairs and walked down one of the long corridors for what felt like hours, the place looked like a maze full of corpses, making it obvious that Hank has been through here. Entering and turning in several corridors, trying to remember where is the exit, made you regret to not paying attention and memorize the place, this base was gigantic.

Hearing heavy footsteps approaching you, you entered a room that looked like a dormitory and hid under a bunk bed, carrying the pistol. You heard the door open again.

"You really don't obey when someone says to, do you?" You can feel the irritation in his speech, sounded like Hank was searching for you for some time already.

He began looking around the room for you, kicking and knocking over some furniture in the process, you started crawling under the beds trying to make as much silence as possible and get next to the door. For a moment he stopped and was silent, a sudden movement that made you uneasy. He was trying to hear you. After what seemed an eternity of silence, he turned his head towards the bed you were hiding underneath.

Fuck it.

You abruptly ran to the door for your life, and before he could do anything, you took aim and started shooting towards him to keep your distance and threw the grenade at him, closing the entrance as you left. Even though, he protected himself with using the beds, leaving no major injuries on him, it really took him by surprise. Hank didn't expect that you could do all of this for your bruises, you sure were an interesting person. Now he really wants you.

You sprinted as fast as you could, your movements becoming more clumsy as the pain returned, but it didn't stop you. Finally finding the exit, you spotted a vehicle that could easily get in and hot-wire it, but wasn't able to, despair making it even harder. In this short meantime, you felt a pair of hands pulling you by the collar of your shirt and pulling you out of the vehicle.

"You really know how to get under my skin." he admitted, both out of admiration and irritation in a threatening way, looking directly in your eyes. And he threw you over his shoulder, hurting you and making you drop your pistol in the process. He couldn't be gentle even if his life depended on it. "I'd have drive us both to the base, but you are such a fucking annoyance that makes it impossible." And then he started walking with you on his shoulder.

What he said made you shiver, what was he planning to do with you? You started to struggle, waiting for him to let go of you, but he just held you tighter. You soon ran out of strength and gave up, getting more tired and weaker by every minute, all this agitation was too much for you, so eventually, you end up passing out from exhaustion.

Hank still couldn't figure out what he found so fascinating about you, maybe because you, a nobody, managed to survive him for so long, few did, or because of your determination and how you surprised him, or even the way you looked at him, he loved to see that mixture of fear, hate and will to live in your face, it was so intriguing.

Whatever it was, he wouldn't be worrying and questioning himself nonstop right now, he didn't need to. Because he would have all the time he wanted to discover now.

So, & I don't know if someone asked this already, but someone asked mmhinman for some BHC/General Classic Sans headcanons (I loved their headcanons of him), & they suggested going to ask u for canon BHC Sans headcanons since u are his writer for BHC, so that's why I’m here! I would love (if u want/can) some headcanons of my boy Sans! I love Classic/Comic so much, & he is 1 of my favorites in BHC (& in general honestly)! ^_^ Also, I love ur header image of u & Sans (so pretty), do u have a link?

Well, first off, thank you so much! My header image is a commission from the lovely nighttimepixels! Here’s the post :)

As for cannon headcannons, yeah! I have a few general ones for Sans that I can share!

Fastest memes in the west- if you send him a meme he will respond with another one in less than five seconds. It doesn’t matter if he was dead asleep when he got it, he somehow just knows.

He doesn’t actually drink ketchup. He likes it, yes, and he drank it exactly one (1) time for shock value… so now he just can’t live it down and jokingly plays along whenever someone brings it up.

Sans fears nothing, so he doesn’t have a phone case. But he does have a pop socket so that he can put the absolute minimum effort into holding his phone.

He doesn’t play them often, but he can absolutely wipe the floor with anyone who dares challenge him to either Jenga or Guitar Hero. (He will occasionally play Dance Dance Revolution as well, but only the version on the original PlayStation with that terrible crinkly mat, and he’s absolutely terrible at it)

Sans is terrible and will have an arsenal of just the worst pet names... get ready for a lot of gems like 'schookums', 'pookie' and 'nickname placeholder'. Though, you might get a 'starlight' or 'sunshine' if he's feeling especially soft.

He loves cheesy 80’s movies and those movies that are so bad that they’re hilarious. His personal favorites are the Goonies and Velocipastor.

Sans both can drive and owns a license, but the only kind of driving he ever really does is the ‘driving people crazy’ kind.

His favorite book is Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. He has a very worn copy of it that he found way back when that he rereads pretty often.

Similarly to why he watches 80’s movies, he likes to listen to 80’s/90’s music because it’s goofy and fun. When he’s working on projects that need his full attention though, he’ll listen to movie or video game soundtracks.

He’s a big cuddler in the most annoying way possible- kind of like a cat. You’re doing something on your computer? Not anymore, he’s in your lap and it’s snuggle time. He will make himself comfortable anywhere, no matter how inconvenient.

In that same vein, he’s a master at getting people to take breaks. He’s very quick to notice when someone is overworking themselves or when they’re getting frustrated with something, and will absolutely do what he can to help.

Sans has very good memory, and is especially good with numbers and dates. He knows all of the household’s numbers by heart (as well as the local pizza place) and has yet to forget a birthday or anniversary.

He’s extremely smart with machines, but will mostly use that exclusively to confuse and annoy people... Like that time he rigged all of the doorways in the house to play specially selected songs for specific people every time they walked through. Every single time.

His love language is absolutely quality time. The more he likes you, the more he’ll go out of his way to be around you, even if you’re not really doing anything. On the other side of this, if he doesn’t really know you, he won’t seek you out. You’ll have to do the legwork to get him to the point of actively trying to be around you.

BEEG BUFF BOI (1/2)

Here he is, in all is glory - complete with letterman and low cut shirts!

Handsome, ain’t he?

I was influenced by the lovely @catella-ars​‘s interpretation of Huxley and seeing their art made me picture him like this, so most, if not all design credits go to them!!

Though some aspects are different? Not sure if there is that big of a change but I’d still like to credit them nonetheless. The only super big change I can think of is his hair and freckles? (Not sure about the color palette thing.)

Now that I think about it, I’m kinda making fanart of fanart... My head hurts.

Headcanons!

Lives in tanks and billowy shirts, doesn’t like to feel restricted so his clothes are light weight. Lots of work out gear, probably would walk around without a shirt somedays if he could. Wears his hair up more often than not.

Actually doesn’t like shopping all that much because since he’s big and tall, it can be a little difficult to find clothes that aren’t too tight. Also sensory thing that makes him sensitive to textures, therefore he won’t wear something if he doesn’t like how it feels on his skin.

We know Hux is chill af but hearing his voice change is enough for us to know how he is when he’s upset, since he’s so go with the flow, he doesn’t get mad much and we thank the skies for that. He’s... A lil intimidating.

He also has freckles, but they’re a little more subtle and with his darker skin tone; you gotta be closer to him to see properly. (you can zoom in to see it)

Oh! His hair was styled into locs before he came to the academy, he finds having them done so is easier for him to maintain and keep up and out of the way while attending D.A.M.N. Will probably comb it out after graduation and it will be glorious.

Notes:  Huxley’s image in my brain had the biggest change of the D.A.M.N. boys tbh, I was actually gonna make him a full on surfer dude. Like, blond hair, super tan, etc. I swapped him over to darker hair. But then I saw Arsenal’s interpretation and BAM. I actually chose his color palette after seeing some very lovely pictures of trees that I took on a road trip to California in 2018? So I picked some colors from that and kinda went wild.

Oh, and if I draw any members of his team, say like Xavier/Zavier or however his name is spelt - I’ll probably be putting them in the letterman! I’m not really sure about the whole... School colors thing so I’ll just keep it black and white!

Once more, give Arsenal all the love for designing such a beautiful boi.

Next up is Dami!!

[wolf-and-bard]

I love your headcanon about Ciri joining in on Lambert’s pranks on Vesemir because she definitely does this. I mean, on the opposite side of the family, Cerys & Hjalmar have taught her that Grandpa Eist is a target for whatever mischief they have prepared to throw at him. So she just assumes that her Witcher Grand Dad will be a good sport about getting bombarded by pranks as well. Lambert sort of stretches the truth and confirms this for her XD Turns out Vesemir is not amused by the shenanigans

Fun, YES, agreed! Now I need to think about Ciri, Cerys and Hjalmar growing up together. 😌🤔 Sorry for going off on this one again, I just like to ramble, feel free to ignore❤️

-----------

She arrives at Kaer Morhen, perhaps a little intimidated, but also excited after Geralt has told her a lot about his family and she can't wait to meet Lambert because he sounds just like her chaos-cousins. Witty, arrogant, foul-mouthed and always some prank or other up his sleeve. Perhaps Geralt has also told her about some of the stunts Lambert used to pull and so Ciri can't wait to unleash her own arsenal on the oldest wolf.

On the first evening, she is quiet, eyeing the others. She finds Vesemir to be mostly welcoming, if a little wary. Eskel gives her timid smiles whenever their eyes catch and she has to admit that she is a little afraid of him. He grunts a lot, more so than Geralt, but when he speaks he has a quiet eloquence and an underlying strength that is intimidating. (Eskel for his part hasn't the first clue on how to treat her).

Geralt is Geralt, she's gotten used to him.

And Lambert well... he makes her feel right at home. He takes one long look at her, sniffs, then says "Don't expect me to bow, princess." as he shoves a bowl of soup at her. The way he says 'princess' makes it sound like an insult and Ciri silently snickers to herself every time he spews profanities that would fit right in with the Skellige side of her family. Lambert notices, she is sure he notices the way her eyes keep flitting between him and Vesemir. He doesn't say a thing, but once, Ciri thinks he winks at her. A silent promise.

After dinner, Lambert and Ciri are scrubbing dishes in the kitchen. She stands on a stool next to him, both elbow deep into the foamy water and gnaws on her lip.

"Out with it, sweetheart," Lambert says at one point and when she glances at him, his gaze is softly amused.

"I have a proposition to make," Ciri says, mustering up all her confidence. The same braveness in her that prompted her to trust Geralt instantly also makes her put her faith into Lambert right then and there.

"Is that so?" Lambert chuckles, dunking the cutlery into the mucky water. "And what is that?"

"You have pulled a lot of jokes on your father, right?"

"He's not-... ah, fuck. Let's say I have, what is it to you?" Lambert asks. Bull's eye. Ciri wouldn't have dared try anything, but Lambert's confession must mean Vesemir won't be too mad about it and Ciri really wants to test the waters. Oh what delight.

"Well, I'm sure your pranks were hilarious, but they're nothing compared to what I have in mind," Ciri says, watching the carefully contained spectacle of emotions on Lambert's face. Indignation being the primary one and she flashes her teeth at him. (Ciri doesn't know this, but Lambert is already neck-deep in love with her, he will be the best uncle). "So, I'm proposing a collateration."

"Collaboration."

"Yes, that. I share my wisdom and you your knowledge of Vesemir and this place. It'll be fun."

Lambert snorts, splashes some dishwater at her and Ciri squeals.

"Deal," he says. (Knowing full well that nothing will ever trump the time he invented the Kaer Morhen ghost. He'd made it seem like a classic haunting with carefully placed bombs and the help of a Kaedwenian seamstress that had taken a liking to him, so that Vesemir and other senior witchers spent weeks trying to lift the curse on the keep. When he hears Ciri's suggestion for a good prank he resolves to teach her all he knows.)

---------------------

The next morning, the entire keep wakes to the loud and indignant shout of "LAMBERT, YOU ASSHOLE." Vesemir must have stepped into his mustard-filled boots, Ciri can barely contain her glee.

Over breakfast, Lambert insists that it was all Ciri's idea. The old witcher simply glares at Lambert and gives Ciri a kindly smile when she makes her best cub eyes at him.

"Don't worry, little one, Lambert has forgotten that he is not a child anymore."

"Maybe we should make him wear cloth diapers so he remembers," Ciri suggests and Lambert's enusing glare means certain death. She laughs and thinks this will be the most fun she had since that time she and Cerys put itching powder into Uncle Crach's wardrobe.

[digitalgate02]

If there’s something it took me a while to get is... Nowhere in 02 material is stated or implied that Daisuke would have Miracles as crest.

Like, I previously mentioned that 5 years ago Bandai made Gashapon toys of the Adv digivices and tags, but the surprise part of those was the fact it did include Kindness, Miracles and Destiny in tag forms.

But, as far as I know, those do not mean they exist in the universe, with exception of Kindness of course. The only missing part of Kindness crest is the tag, but that’s not much important.

As I write this post, I’ve seen theories and headcanons about Daisuke having the Crest of Miracles if he had one. Well, we know those are assumptions based on the times Daisuke had the Digimental of Miracles in hands (three times for now) and it being questioned by Daisuke in 02 ep 20.

The fact Magnamon only appears by two episodes and never again in 02 could result in some interesting stuff in the lore, but my in-production theory is that Magnamon wasn’t planned for 02 and it was actually a movie promotion for Hurricane Touchdown (which aired before this episode, with a long gap between its release and this episode’s airing date) which probably went a bit too late in the series.

So... Is really Miracles a Daisuke’s digimental/crest?

Officially... No. None of 02 material (and even Kizuna) depict Miracles when they have to put Daisuke’s crests on it. It’s always Courage and Friendship, to represent his Digimentals.

The only material to mention Miracles as some “temporary” power he got is Digimon Series Memorial Book: Digimon Animation Chronicle page for Daisuke’s sketches and information about his character and design:

His Digimentals are “Courage,” “Friendship,” and at one point, “Miracles.”

[TL by onkei]

Which also implies in the sense of “This is only his during certain circumstances, but we’re adding it here as some special power he had in his arsenal” and not some official confirmation that his crest is Miracles as well.

I’m saying this because a long time ago i’ve bought this idea as well, believing Daisuke had a crest just like Ken (and also Wallace) but turns out official does NOT count it as something official.

This does not stop us, fans, to headcanon and play with the idea of Daisuke having it as crest as well, since he’s quite the embodiment of “making the impossible be possible” hehe.

Just musing about this...

[monkeydlesbian]

at this point,,,i’m begging u,,fukunaga hcs😔 i love that funky little man sm i think it’s a problem

# FUKUNAGA HEADCANONS.

a/n: homie oh my dear GOD you just opened up the floodgates and i hope u know how to swim <3 with that being said, THANK YOU for giving me the opportunity to talk about the absolute love of my life!!! i am writing this author's note BEFORE i write these hc’s so there is absolutely no telling how long it will get. as always, i hope you enjoy and i hope you have a wonderful day! i am insane!

warnings: none!

GENERAL HEADCANONS:

where to start with this funnyman dear God.

fukunaga shouhei is a joy to be around, even if he doesn’t talk much and even if he laughs at his own jokes and even if it looks like he never blinks (perceptive king).

his company is really the best, like when you facetime a friend and you’re just doing your own things with each other there.

i wouldn't say he's necessarily an introvert, but he can be awkward in social settings at times which i’d say is normal for the average human being.

for some reason i feel like fukunaga is the person that’s always breaking that uncomfortable silence in a room full of people at the beginning of the night, but he never really gets the credit for it and just stays silent the rest of the time if that makes sense???

idk but i am obsessed with him.

anyways.

fukunaga strikes me as the type of person who just loves laughter.

he loves hearing laughter, being the cause of it, laughing himself.

it is my personal belief that fukunaga never EVER looks jokes up, he’s always just thinking funny things in that brain of his and i really love him for that oh my god.

the first time someone actually indulges him in one of his funny thoughts, he will immediately perk up and he might blush a little bit, depending on who it is.

another thought of mine is that post-timeskip he becomes WAY more confident in his interactions with people, like he's always sure that what comes out of his mouth is going to make you laugh.

“funny guys are dangerous. they make you laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh then BOOM. you’re naked.”

yeah that's fukunaga.

when fukunaga does happen to talk, it’s so easy to flow into a conversation and he's honestly just a really soothing person to be around.

he always listens when you’re talking and his attention is on you the whole time.

he’s the type of person that is nodding along with what you're saying and responding to you even if you get talked over :((( (so precious i'm gonna cry).

another random thought but i feel like fukunaga giggles?? i don't know but i feel like he barely ever lets out loud laughter and instead just giggles PLEASE i love him.

this got so long but TLDR; fukunaga is a funny, considerate, and sweet person to talk to and be around and everyone should love him. thank you.

RELATIONSHIP HEADCANONS:

SCREAMS at this part because fukunaga is all i could ever want in a partner.

he can cook, he’s funny, he’s a little weird, and dear GOD i know his paycheck is FAT post-timeskip. comedian and part-time chef KING!

not to mention he is actually very handsome and cute as all hell. if you think fukunaga is ugly then i am so sorry for you.

to be honest, i don't think fukunaga will be like wound up or rowdy or anything in your relationship, like a secret sort of thing.

he’s still gonna be fukunaga, the slightly awkward and cheeky and funny guy that you came to love in the first place.

he’s not much for grand gestures in a relationship, but he’s showing you how much he loves you by cooking for you, giving you company, doing your laundry for you; basically anything that would make your life easier, he's doing it.

fukunaga isn't really touch starved or anything, but that doesn’t mean he won't absolutely relish the times the two of you do get to be physically close.

(the following bullet point is courtesy of seal anon, love u bae <3)

while fukunaga won’t drown you in a hug the minute he sees you or loom over your shoulders constantly, he does like to hold onto you in small and more subtle ways.

he likes to play with your fingers a lot, give you small kisses on your temple as he passes by, maybe even a little pat on the booty if he’s feeling bolder than usual.

one of his favorite things is to see you wrapping your arms around one of his, your cheek squished on his shoulder as you watch him cook dinner.

then he's teasing you about being clingy, about how you can get enough of him, but deep down he really couldn't ask for anything less.

being domestic with you is also another thing that stirs up the love he has for you inside his heart.

at the beginning of your relationship, the first time you spent the night at his apartment, you had forgotten to pack your sleep shirt, so he just let you use an old t-shirt of his.

he had to pinch himself the moment you walked out of the bathroom in his shirt, your own sweatpants hung low on your hips.

even now, you still tease him about the literal hearts in his eyes but he can’t find it in himself to bite back when he sees you smile and giggle at the memory.

another thing about fukunaga is that he loves you without shame!!

even if he is a little more on the quieter side, everyone around the two of you knows just how much fukunaga loves you in the way he listens to you and the way he cares about the things you care about.

kids love this mf so much it’s ridiculous. your little cousins are always climbing on his legs and begging him to tell knock-knock joke after knock-knock joke.

and it’s like he never ever gets tired of them either, probably tens of thousands of knock-knock jokes in his arsenal to entertain them with.

your aunt is so damn embarrassing with the way she tells him he would be such an amazing father, sending you looks, if you’re picking up what i'm putting down.

one very self-indulgent thought of mine is that he LOVES to tease you.

whether he’s tickling you, picking fun at you, or whispering something a little less than innocent in your ear,,, he’s always trying to tease the living hell out of you.

like i said before, i hc fukunaga as someone who got way more confident post-timeskip, so some of the things he says will catch you SO off guard it’s not even funny.

that could have gone into nsfw territory but i had to physically restrain myself.

TLDR; fukunaga as a partner is someone who isn’t going to be necessarily doting or clingy, but he will cherish you with everything he has and does everything he can for you to make your life as joyful as possible! he loves you so much and will show you every day!

BONUS SCENARIO (i’m insane):

You close your book fairly quickly when you hear the sizzling of the skillet come from inside of the kitchen. Jumping up from the couch, you slide on the wooden floor as you make your way to your boyfriend who somehow managed to sneak by you without a sound. You smile when you see Fukunaga standing there, in front of the stove and in his element, his shoulders shifting from the movement of his arms as he slides the chopped up carrot into the skillet along with the other vegetables.

“Hate to break it to ya, but you’re not as sneaky as you think,” he says, adding a pinch of salt to the ingredients in the skillet before he sends you a wink over his shoulder.

“Definitely not as sneaky as you,” you quip back, sliding your sock clad feet across the floor as you make your way over to him. You wrap your arms around his torso from behind and bury your head in the middle of his back. He giggles, resting his free hand over one of your own and rubbing his thumb across the back of it.

“You’re clingy, angel,” he comments, lighthearted and airy, showing you that he doesn’t really mean it. Either that or he doesn’t mind it.

“Can’t help it,” you shrug with a sigh, “you’re sexy when you cook.”

He chuckles, ���Oh? You don’t think I’m sexy all the time?”

“Now, I didn’t say that,” you huff, your cheeks heating up when you feel him shake with silent laughter.

The sizzling tones down a little bit now that he has all of the ingredients in the skillet and has been stirring for a while, and luckily for you, Fukunaga decides it to be the optimum time to turn around and wrap you in his arms. He kisses the top of your head and you smile, burying your face further into his chest.

“You’re makin’ my favorite,” you muse after a while, tilting your head so that your chin rests against his chest as you look up at him.

“That I am, sweetpea,” he confirms simply, quite enjoying the way you instantly beam up at him from your place in his chest.

“Any particular reason why?”

“Well, I thought that maybe if I made your favorite, you’d think I was extra sexy,” he jokes, though he sounds completely serious. He giggles when your smile drops and you roll your eyes, choosing to bury your face back into his chest with groan.

“You’re annoyin’, Shou,” you say as you squeeze him tighter.

“You love it.”

“That I do.”

CABIN 10 — APHRODITE

Headcanons.

❝I want to apologize to all the women I have called pretty before I’ve called them intelligent or brave. I am sorry I made it sound as though something as simple as what you’re born with is the most you have to be proud of when your spirit has crushed mountains. From now on, I will say things like, ‘You are resilient,’ or, ‘You are extraordinary.’ Not because I don’t think you’re pretty. But because you are so much more than that.❞ 

— Rupi Kaur

Headcanon masterlist.

They’re the camp hairdressers. You need a trim? You want it cut? You want it died? You want to shave it all off? Hit ‘em up.

The type of people that will straight-up chop their hair if it doesn't match their outfit. Somehow, it always works out? I'm looking at Micarah Tewers.

They also run a secret ear piercing — or anything else you need to pierce — parlor.

Okay, but consider: children of Aphrodite that grow up to be models.

They can charm speak the photographers into letting them pick their own poses & not make them do seductive ones if they’re not comfortable with them.

Some create clothing lines that represent sustainable fashion & have big names but small carbon footprints.

Some are spies.

Think about it! They know how to switch subtle bits of their personality to fit in with everyone they come across, when & when not to use their charm.

The hide outfits under other outfits & can slip one off in public to reveal the other & lose a tail.

And they'd probably be great at disguise makeup. Add a prosthetic chin, contour their nose differently, pull off their wig, & they're a completely different person.

Plus, their combat training at C.H.B. makes them the perfect agent.

The floor next to their bunk is scattered with fabric cuttings, pins, needles, their sewing machine, serger, & measuring tape.

The number of times someone's gotten a needle or pin in their foot's a tad concerning.

Will absolutely not wear a top with an overstitched collar. Fast fashion is so tacky! Understitch is the way to go, the staple of a quality garment.

Vintage is better. Not because it's in style (that's a plus, though), but because the seams are big enough for you to let out, & it's made to last.

Experts at thrifting. Not just 'cause it's trendy or whatever, but because they're excellent at upcycling & far too many perfectly good clothes go into the land fill each year.

Make stunning dresses out of Good Will table cloths & curtains.

Or stitch two items together into one better whole.

They iron their clothes; they're not animals.

Really good at getting stains out?

Totally in on the corset bustier top trend, but they're using spiral steel boning in place of zip-ties. Because, again, they want things to last & they're not tacky.

Pass each other tips. Like to tuck your top into your tights to avoid the bulge under your skirt.

Some found big-name, organic makeup companies that don't test on animals. They use packaging that can be recycled or that's biodegradable.

Borrow their clothes, sure, whatever, but double-dip in their makeup & die. The bacteria will give them acne. (Or is it the oils? Either way, you'll perish.)

Happy to drop their skincare routine, though.

You need to cover up that tattoo you got from C7? They got you.

Flawless makeup on a budget. Expensive doesn't always mean better.

They're taking you to the pool for a first date? Take a seat, C10 knows just the stuff. They use what Disney Princesses use.

Can guess the right shade of foundation/lipstick for you on the first couple tries.

A lot of them invest in magnetic lashes because glue's a b¡tch.

Reusable makeup wipes.

Rick says C10 kids just sit around the lake & check their reflection, but consider: working out gets them their dream bod. So, yes, they do, in fact, train.

They just do it with intricate braids/hair gel & stylish sportwear.

And if a potential partner finds it unattractive that they’re “too muscly,” they’re no longer a potential partner.

Weapons disguised as jewelry or chapstick/lipstick.

Thalia had a mace canister that turned into a spear, & I gotta say, I.D.K. how she planned to get that through security. Imagine, alternatively, a tube that appears to be full of bright red lipstick when the T.S.A. agent opens it, but actually turns into a spear when opened by a half-blood.

(I have a headcanon that Riptide would just be a pen in the hands of a mortal. Bounced around for years as random objects until Poseidon nabbed it & took it to Chiron — recall that pen you lost?)

A pink, velvet choker that turns into a kopis with a dove embossed in the handle.

Many choose to train in heels. Might as well wear in training what they’ll be wearing when attacked in the street.

They’ve got no time for internalized misogyny. 

“C10′s weak ‘cause they like being pretty!” Good way to lose a kneecap, Annabeth. You’ve grown up in this camp, you knew Selina, & you should know better.

They confront Piper’s misogyny pretty early on after The Lost Hero, but Piper still takes some time to get over her bias toward pink.

Are we not gonna talk about Rick’s fashion choices for Piper throughout the series? “She looks so fashionable.” To whom, Rick? To whom?

You couldn’t’ve done a little internet surfing just to see what was in style? I never leave the house in anything but jeans, Converse, & a graphic t-shirt from Walmart, & even I know she’s dressed like a middle-schooler! Probably because that’s how I dressed in middle-school… That’s not the point.

The point is just because a character likes makeup or fashion or the color pink, doesn’t mean they can’t/won’t fight for their lives & the lives of their friends if/when the time comes. And it doesn’t mean that they’re stupid or judgmental.

I don’t know a lot about makeup. Hades, I don’t even wear makeup — you can’t rub your eyes or scratch your face; it would drive me crazy. I don’t know a lot about fashion either. I don’t understand it, but I can respect it.

❝‘Jesus,’ Sara says as Branley walks past us. ‘Too cold to show off cleavage, so instead she goes for jeans so tight I can see her thong.’ ‘She looks nice,’ I say, and she does. Branley always looks put together in a way that tells me she spends hours in front of a mirror before going outside. And while I don’t understand that, I can respect it.❞

— Alex Craft, Mindy McGinnis’s The Female of the Species

According to The Lost Hero, all children of Aphrodite intuitively speak French. Cool, cool, cool — but consider, all of them also intuitively speak the language of flowers. 

They see a red rose, and they just know it symbolizes love & passion. They see an orange lily, to contrast, & they know it symbolizes hatred. 

There’s a copy of The Language of Flowers in their cabin, and it’s full of annotations, like, So-and-so gave these to so-and-so for Valentines Day! And, So-and-so gave these to so-and-so after their kiss on the Fourth of July; they obviously didn’t do their research! 

They work together with C4 (Demeter) to provide flowers for funerals & the like.

C10 bookshelves also contain a lot of romance novels. 

Beaten up copies of Pride & Prejudice & The Fault in Our Stars with faded highlighter over the beautiful lines & annotations in the margins.

The outside walls are a dusty pink, & the wood’s stained a dark brown that goes surprisingly well with the pink.

Inside, the walls are covered in faded wallpaper.

The southwest wall has a bay window with extra storage in the seat. (There’s not a body in there; they swear.)

(That’s an Arsenic & Old Lace reference, for you youngsters.)

The curtains have one chiffon layer closer to the window & a thicker floral fabric for inside. The thick curtains are replaced based on the season & whether or not someone’s decided to make a romper out of them.

They have a real bell jar with a real rose in front of the window. Legend has it it’s from Aphrodite herself.

Said window is a stained glass image of a dove.

The chaise lounge was probably beautiful when it was brought it, but it’s got fingernail polish & makeup stains on it now. Honestly, someone should really have that thing cleaned.

As you might have noticed, I placed a gif of swans at the top instead of a fancast for Aphrodite. This is because I think, as I believe most Percy Jackson fans do, multiple people should play her. I'd cast Arden Cho, Camila Mendes, Candice Patton, Diane Kruger, & Gal Gadot to start with.

Ahem... I'm here to ask you to teach me the way

Lmao I see you post a lot about Jason todd (I followed you for other fandoms so I don't really know much about DC and such) BUT, all your red hood rambles and writing and art rebblogs has me hooked.

I wanna know about that dude. ALL about him! And something tells me ur the right one for that.

I'm glad my fixation got you interested in him, that's such an honor! 😫💕

Okay I'm kinda new in this whole DC thing as well so I'm sorry if I'm missing some info. For your knowledge I’m gonna talk about him as if he were an oc, you know those info pages about oc’s? yup

If you want a proper explanation watch Under the Red Hood or read Red Hood: the lost days and if you wanna know more about Arkham Knight then Arkham Knight: Genesis is your choice. Those are good guides tbh

Dios que hombre lpm 😫🤰🏽

•Jason is about 6'0-6'4 ,blue green-ish eyes, black hair, kinda pale (I would say a white tan if that’s a thing), black hair, built like a tank (230 lbs) and I think he's in his mid twenties maybe? I'm not sure.

• Jason is the second Robin, adopted by Bruce after he found him trying to steal the tires of the Batmobil.

 •His new life in the Wayne manor gave him access to education, proper nutrition and also the chance to discover new activities as well. Jason's passion for literature and theater grew in those days.

• I want to point out here that Jason was a really smart kiddo, just impulsive (he still is like this, some things never change)

• He had a really rough childhood, none of his parents wanted him, in fact they trying to give to a mob to get out of debts when he was just a newborn. In less words: they were really fucking neglectful towards him.

 •Anyway, Jason loved his time as Robin. It gave him magic™, but he was also insecure about not being good enough in this, he seemed to not like when others compared him to Dick (the first Robin)

•However, all of this came to an end when the Joker tricked him, tortured him and killed Jason in an explosion (in the Arkham Knight version the Joker tortured Jason for almost a year and shot him in the head)

•He was revived in the Lazarus Pit since Ra's al Ghul thought Bruce would like it and stayed with the League of Assasins for a while. He was trained by Talia aka daughter of Ra's and they had an affair, but nothing came out of it since Talia still had feeling for Brucie.

•Well, Jason hold grudges against the Batfam for a long time, specially with Bruce since he didn't avenge his death and killed the Joker.

•Jason felt that he never meant nothing to him, he felt betrayed. So he did his best to take down Batman.

•Red Hood in his words he was "the hero Gotham needed". He killed criminals and even became a  crime boss at some point, the underdogs feard him.

•Red Hood had his limits though, he might put some lead in a criminal's head but will try to contain himself when a kid was involved, specially if they have a similiar story like him.

•Also he helps those who doesn't have resources and the defenseless. Bring home and medicine to shelters, makes sure dealers doesn't fuck with schools, tries his damn best to keep safe the sex workers of Gotham, etc. I'm not quite sure if this was a headcanon or if it's 100% canon tho

•Anyway, he later stoped his attempts to kill the Bat for a while a created a team with Arsenal and Starfire (later with Artemis and Bizarro) and now is a decent state of mind? yeah

•He also likes dogs, can cook pretty well, has a smoker past, is pretty damn good with guns, did I mention he was a crime boss?, theatre nerd and literature lover, might slap you if you say Shakespeare sucks lol and is pretty laid back in general, arrogant and sarcastic, but deeply insecure and can be self loathing sometimes.

•There’s a headcanon that says he has an autopsy scar across his chest, like in this fan art:

•And the white streak comes from his resurrection in the pit, but sadly not many issues include it 

-Right now there's a live action version of him in titans, but his story is slightly different from what I've told you.

He's more angsty and a ball of anger, but he has his sweets moments tho. I like how to actor played him as Robin, but I'm not so convinced about him being Red Hood.

-And there's the otherversion (my favorite if were being honest) were Matthew Daddario is his fancast, mostly in his Red Hood version.

I don't know, I think it fits him more

Nice to meet you, Rotomblr! I'm Lillyan, and I'm a Pokémon Coordinator from Ryme City. My family owns a Pokémon cafe, the Pikachu Patisserie, here in town, and... Dang, I don't really know where to go from here. I guess I should tell you about all my Pokémon!

Main team:

Goro the Pikachu - My first Pokemon that my brother brought home from Kanto for my 10th birthday. He's the Champion there, see. He actually started his Pokemon journey the same year I started kindergarten.

Oh! Oh! Let me! Let me! So, when I was really little, I fell through a uh… Professor Krane said it’s called an “Ultra Wormhole”? And I woke up in a completely different world! It was the exact opposite of all the stories I had heard about humans! I’m sure there’s a way I could go back if I wanted to, but I like my life here. I’ll be signing my posts with this symbol ->⚡

//he's named after his scrapped evolution

Dante the Samurott - Gifted to me as an Oshawott by Mr. Cyrano while I attended Blueberry Academy. He's my go-to for water-themed Contest routines and the occasional tournament. I named him after the protagonist of The Count of Monte Cristo.

//I headcanon that there's a fair amount of media in the Pokemon world that actually doesn't include Pokemon as prominently as we'd expect. Like, if it involves animals, it'll be Pokemon instead, but if not it's pretty 1-to-1

Erik the Meowscarada - A Sprigatito I was given during my exchange program at Uva Academy. After seeing Meowscarada in the Pokedex, I was immediately reminded of Phantom of the Opera.

Edward the Zoroark - A Zorua given to me by a strange man in Driftveil City, who wanted to perform in the Contest there. I quickly came up with a new routine for him and he decided to come on my journey with me.

Amy the Tinkaton - Caught as a Tinkatuff during my Treasure Hunt. Named after the hammer-wielding Buneary of the same name from the Sonic the Sandslash series.

Carmen the Lopunny - One of my surprisingly few “home turf” catches. (Did I spell that right? I hope I spelled that right.) She was only on the team for a few days before evolving. Must be the Poffins.

In rotation:

Arsene the Lucario - Originally caught as a Riolu in the Terarium. He's relatively secluded and kind of a drama king. He's named after the fictitious gentleman thief Arsene Lupin.

Orpheus the Glaceon - Starting as an Eevee I caught in Kanto while visiting my brother, he evolved into a Glaceon during an Ice-type Tera Raid.

Diogo the Empoleon - Originally caught as a Piplup in Lake Verity. Metal Claw is really good for shearing ATEP.

Charlotte the Alcremie - A Ruby Swirl Alcremie with a Love Sweet that I hatched from an Egg as part of a school project.

Raptors - A Shiny Mimikyu, also hatched from an Egg I received elsewhere. Named after one of my favorite YouTubers.

Emily the Vespiquen - One of the first Pokemon I caught at the start of my journey. I knew female Combee were super rare, so since I felt so lucky to find one, I named her after Glitter Lucky.

//This is based on a real-life occurrence during my X playthrough, but my game crashed and I lost her

Libitina the Absol - She tends to act up whenever something bad is about to happen, which I assume is normal behavior for her species, but I'm not sure.

Lazarus the Tyrantrum - Named after the man Jesus raised from the dead, since he was revived from a fossil. Yes, Christianity does exist in the Pokemon world. I say this //in character because of Rotomblr’s multiversal reach. We believe Arceus to be the partner Pokemon of God, but Arceus itself is not God, you’re thinking of Arkeism.

Zero - A Porygon (now Porygon-Z) that I once impulsively saved from being put down after its previous Trainer’s son suffered a seizure due to its Tri-Attack

Myra the Ninetales

Other notable ‘mons:

Ralph - A Rattata I caught on Route 22 in Kanto. He wouldn't stop pestering me for a battle, and then just refused to go down. I asked if he wanted to come with and hail mary-ed a Poke Ball at him. He’s more of a traveling companion than a team Pokémon.

Lycoris - A Floette named for the red spider lily it carries around.

Lona - A Glameow originally owned by a friend of my brother's, then my grandmother, and then us. I think we accidentally gave her microtrauma from moving her around so much because she's kinda mean sometimes.

Prayer - A Purrloin we adopted for Christmas a few years back. Despite the bad reputation of his species, he’s just a shy lil sweetheart

Phoebe the Eevee - My mother’s first Pokemon from when she was my age. I’m curious as to why she hasn’t evolved yet, if they’ve been together for so long. She’s the mascot of the cafe, despite the name.

ATEP the Dubwool

Cooper the Obstagoon

Giovanna the Shiny Pikachu (caught in a Max Raid, name means "God is gracious")

Madame the Galarian Farfetch'd

Pikablu the Azumarill

Kimba the Luxray

Oktavio the Primarina

Sage the Ceruledge

Supernova the Tauros (Paldean Combat breed)

Balto the Lycanroc (Daylight form)

Blueberry the Minun

Mastema the Vivillon //named after a demon that shares its name with a genus of moth, referencing its National Pokedex number

Other Pokemon who work at the cafe, but technically don’t belong to us:

Aconite the Leafeon

Levi the Vaporeon

Raspberry the “Minusle”

Charcolt the Charmander

Rainer the Squirtle

Forresaur the Bulbasaur

Cinnabun the Scorbunny

Chinta the Minccino //I only speak Dora-level Spanish so if that’s a bad word, please let me know bc I got it from the chinchilla episode of Go Diego Go

Crackle the Pansear (named for being the “Hear No Evil” monkey)

Goggles the Simipour (named for being the “See No Evil” monkey)

Peter “Cottontail” the Whimsicott

Horus the Starly

Howler the Chimchar

Kagome the Gardevoir

Madoka the Jirachi (different from the one connected to the legends of the region, but we have no idea where it came from)

Vulpvi the Vulpix (named for the Roman numeral of six, referencing its six tails, as early Pokedexes once gave it this name)

and Gretchen the Hattrem

okay let’s talk about mary’s badass charm bracelet from in the beginning (spn 4x03). as far as I’m aware, it’s only shown in this ep. even when mary is resurrected in alpha and omega (spn 11x23) we don’t see her wear it again. likely, since she’s been dead since the 80s, it’s lost to time.

but I kinda wish she had. it’s silver, has a devil’s trap, a cross, a men of letters symbol. probably an anti-possession charm. cute and practical.

I wanna know where she got it. because of the MoL symbol I am going to say it was a present from her dad. maybe a sweet 16. which means she’s probably had it about 3 years.

at one point, she probably wanted to get rid of it. remove all reminders if her life as a hunter and run away with john. but after the YED demon possesses and kills her parents—I think she wears it everyday. as a reminder. as a memorial.

and now, this part is gonna be kinda squicky. since mary died in a fire and we know she has a gravestone. well, let’s just say that john didn’t have her remains cremated. that whatever remained was probably buried as-is. this is why she’s resurrected in her nightgown—it’s the last outfit she was wearing.

and since she wouldn’t have been wearing any jewelry to bed (aside from her wedding ring) the logical conclusion would be that john still had the bracelet after her death. had all of her things. and I think I know where they all ended up—in john’s storage unit.

we know from bad day at black rock (spn 3x03) that john kept mementos of sam and dean’s childhood there. and an arsenal of archane objects and weapons. I suspect anything of mary’s—esp if it’s related to the supernatural—would be stored there.

and my headcanon is that sam and dean go back to the unit quite often. to see what’s useful, to drop off their own objects, and maybe eventually to bring it all back to bobby’s.

that’s when dean finds the inoculous wood box. it’s obviously handmade, with care. the inside of the lid is engraved with a name and a birth date. mary sandra campbell. december 5th 1954.

and it’s full of mary’s treasures.

a pair of turquoise earrings. a broken chevy impala key fob. a silver knife. a tiny bottle of perfume. a makeup compact with a cracked mirror. a couple of concert ticket stubs. her parents’ wedding rings. a charm bracelet.

dean does a double-take when he sees it. realizes it’s the charm bracelet. the silver one he saw her wearing back in 1973. the one that identified her as a hunter.

dean calls sam over to look. tells him the story as they finish loading up the impala. he puts the box on the seat between them. lays his hand over it. miss you mom.

they leave it at bobby’s. in the room that has always unofficially been dean’s.

it’s not until after bobby dies that dean remembers he even had the box. the house and the salvage yard are theirs now, but the bunker has become their home. sam is packing up books downstairs. his puppy dog eyes, big and misty, are too much for dean and he’d retreated to his old room. pulled his spare shirts from the closet, folded up the quilt on the bed, boxed up his dog-eared paperbacks.

and then dean found mary’s box. already too overwhelmed he stashes it under his arm. carries it downstairs and to the car without opening it. another one of his parents is dead. the last one. the best one.

cas is at the bunker when sam and dean pull into the garage. a warm hand on his shoulder and gravelly words of comfort. and dean remembers that cas lost bobby, too. they can share this grief.

claire shows up later that night. she has an open invitation whenever she’s nearby. a dead guy room she’s claimed as her own. she keeps her spare clothes, some momentoes from the house in illinois, and grumpy cat in there.

the boxes from bobby’s are spread out on one of the bunker’s tables. sam’s adding books to the library, carefully indexing them. dean and cas are finding places for everything else. claire offers to help.

she grins when she finds the little wooden box. the contents are so cool. dean smiles and tells her the same story he once told sam. about time travel and his family and how his teenager mom kicked his ass. adds embellishments about early days cas. cas rolls his eyes. claire snickers.

she fiddles with the bracelet thru the whole story. fingering the charms and making them clink delicately. dean raises an eyebrow at sam. it’s a question. one sam picks up on immediately. he nods small but brightly.

you can have it. you know, if you want. claire tries to refuse. cas does too. it’s your mother’s dean. sam and dean barrel over their arguments. I think she’d like another hunter to have it and it’s not like either of us are gonna wear it, cas.

claire is beaming in that shy way she sometimes gets. like she can’t believe she has this new, weird little family. sometimes dean can’t either. you know this makes you a winchester now, right? claire sticks her tongue out him and he laughs.

more years pass and all of a sudden mom is back. well, mary. she’s younger than him and 3 decades out of touch. it’s a hard transition. navigating their roles to each other. they settle on something closer to friendship. it’s good. better than good.

he’d forgotten all about the box until mary and claire meet. mary stares at the silver charms encircling claire’s wrist. is that mine? her eyes are wide. like she’s seen a ghost.

there’s confusion at first. claire gets that quietly devastated looks of hers, but offers the bracelet back. unclasps it, holds it out. she looks so much cas that it physically pains dean. not jimmy. but cas. it’s a trying-to-be-stoic-in-the-face-of-inscrutible-human-emotions look that he sometimes makes. all blue eyes and furrowed brow.

mary wraps her hand around claire’s. folds claire’s fingers around the bracelet in her palm. why don’t I tell you how I got it and then you can tell how you did? how does that sound, sweetie. claire beams.

so that’s how they spend the evening. swapping anecdotes and memories. eventually dean goes to get the box. mary is delighted. my treasures! she tells them all about each item. the silver knife she wore to prom. how john accidentally ran over the car fob six months after getting the impala. the earrings she bought on her first solo hunt. dean’s baby booties.

she starts passing out the items. she hands sam her parents’ rings with a mischevious twinkle in her eye. she’s already met eileen. dean gets the crushed key fob after he promises he can fix it. cas gets the knife and an unnerving wink. it’s lucky, she stage whispers.

more years pass and mary is dead again. but that’s the way of things. maybe in another 30 she won’t be. maybe tomorrow. maybe they’ll meet again after dean dies, for good this time. it doesn’t matter because right now there’s peace.

real peace. sam and eileen got married a few months ago. eileen’s been dead before, too. but right now she’s rocking their grandmother’s ring and it catches the light as she signs in greeting. little jack makes grabby hands at sam so he sweeps him outta cas’ arms. he has dean’s baby booties on his feet.

cas does that gummy fond smile thing of his and collapses onto a chair, swinging his feet up onto a stool. he doesn’t carry his angel blade anymore. dean teased him about “angel pockets” for a little while but he only squinted and countered with something about interdimensional folded space and an eye roll. but he has taken to carrying a boot knife. dean can see the slice of silver against the dip of his ankle. he catches cas’ eye and grins lecherously at him. mom had been right, it was a lucky knife.

claire and kaia show up later fresh from a hunt. they are a little beat up, a little bruised, but okay. cas and claire exchange glowers of affection when he insists on rebandaging her arm, unclapsing her charm bracelet to better see the cut. dean’s helping kaia with a bump behind her ear when she gasps. oh, I think I lost my earring. dean rolls his eyes. these kids are gonna give him a heart attack one of these days.

but he says, I can fix that, I think. and stomps off to his room where a familiar wooden box sits on his dresser. he opens the lid. the engraved words are the same, but the contents are different. a bracelet strung with wooden skull beads. a couple of watches. a scrap of singed baby blanket. keys that say singer salvage. a pair of dog tags. some convention stubs. a scratched silver ring. half of a kansas licence plate. an angel blade.

and at the bottom, with an empty bottle of perfume, a broken compact, and a gold wedding ring on a chain are the items he was looking for. he scoops them up and heads back to the kitchen. frowns at sam who’s pretending like he can cook while eileen and cas are playing peek-a-boo with jack.

dean leans over the table and opens his hand in front of kaia. he’s holding a pair of turquoise earrings.

these are for you, kiddo. claire nudges her side, encouraging kaia to take them. he knows claire recognizes them when she whispers in kaia’s ear. it means welcome to the family.

dean smiles to himself as kaia reverently puts on the earrings. the pale blue stones suit her. absently he pulls his keys out of his pocket. twirls them around a finger, the key fob a flash of silver and black.

miss you mom. but it’s not a sad thought. not when she’s everywhere he looks.
