the boys ; washing off!
requested by no one! afab, feminine, the deep!reader. includes depowered!kevin moskowitz. warning for nsfw mentions & general nudity (but this isn’t a nsfw piece) as well as gore descriptions (typical the boys stuff). fandom masterlist found here. 🧼 . . . author notes: combined some ideas that were floating in my head.. what if the deep was actually cool & respected as homelander’s 2nd in command? what if reader was the one covered in blood for once? felt silly. might make more unhinged reader pieces. lowk imagined reader as the same / close height as him, idk why but i tried to keep it vague regardless. this is rlly exploratory btw.
kevin moskowitz
— you hear him on his feet before you see him coming towards you, a certain look on his face that you don’t really appreciate. he’s surprised, sputtering something or other about not expecting you like this — he’s acting as if you’ve never been in his home before. you can’t believe you’ve stooped so low, fucking a man named kevin. his dick was big, though.. enough to satisfy your supe libido, if nothing else.
— it’s only once you lift and press his hand to your cheek, his fingers rubbing against caked blood that you’re reminded of the viscera that covered you more than your clothes did. small bits and pieces of people clung to your form, your skin caked with layers upon layers, gallons of blood. the sheer number of people you’ve just disposed of for vought.. kevin tries not think about it, you can tell by the way he brushes your cheek with your thumb. he humanizes you, always. maybe that’s why you came here first. battered and wrecked, you came to him, him first —
— “let’s.. get you cleaned off,” he murmurs. it’s always a suggestion, he’s not in charge. you’re the one with powers, the one leaving red splatters on his floor. you’re in charge. he doesn’t move until you nod your head, words refusing to escape your lips. you’d like to say something. anything, really. unfortunately for you, somewhere between your brain and your tongue, the words happen to get lost. maybe behind your eyes, maybe in the back of your throat. it doesn’t matter, all that matters is the way kevin guides you to his shower, opening the door to the bathroom and urging you in.
— he strips you bare after a few checks of consent. he’s so cautious, almost as though he knows how tricky supes can be. careful hands peel your blood soaked suit off you — you can hear his breath hitch as he sees your breasts. they’ve always been his favorite part of you, you’re sure he just has a thing for tits. size doesn’t matter, imperfections don’t matter. it never gets old for him, seeing you in your rawest, most human form. seeing you naked.
— you were the deep. the fucking deep. mistress of the seas, a badass warrior, homelander’s number two. his right hand. do you know how strong, how ruthless you have to be for homelander of all people to acknowledge you? you were a pinnacle of strength, you could kill a man with a single punch and you were fast, not a-train fast but still. you were super. you were a supe. oh, and the public adored you. they saw a lot of you but they never saw this.
— never would the public see red dripping down your chest to the floor, they’d never be able to appreciate the way your body shivers against the sudden cold now that your suit wasn’t protecting you. the blood was even in your hair, he noticed. no, they’d never ever see you as he did. moskowitz had never been special until he encountered you. and now look at him.. stripping down to accompany you for a much needed shower.
— once you’re both under the running water, he starts with washing your hair. he’s tender in the way he scrubs at your scalp, letting his shampoo lather before he gently moves your head down so he can rinse all the gore and grime out. one or two rounds of this occur, just to be thorough. then he uses conditioner, his conditioner, and lets it sit in your head while he works on your body. you’re going to smell almost exactly like him by the end of this. the thought doesn’t exactly disgust you, not smelling like the sea for once.
— he’s even more caring with your body, his touch almost reverent as he gets into every nook and cranny. even the ones free of blood were cleaned. he can’t help but palm your breasts once he gets to them, doing a bit more than cleaning. you can’t say you hate the way he feels them up. the way he leans in to give your cheek a kiss. he’s not thinking with his dick, you can tell. he’s just.. being affectionate. “mm,” a hum escapes your lips, finally, noise. one hand of yours goes to his hair, snaking across his scalp and gripping his brown locks before pressing him to your chest so he can hear your heartbeat.
— “i love you,” he breathes out, holding onto you. the brunette’s so human, it’s cute. he doesn’t hesitate to let his cheek rest against your breast, doesn’t hesitate to listen to the constant beating of your heart.
— “so do i,” you murmur. and that’s that — he’d never ask for anything more. eventually you’ll come around. that’s what he tells himself anyways.. i mean, he’s pressed against your chest, he better not push his luck. he pressed a small smooch to your closest tit, the left one, and then pulls back some to finish washing you off. he goes back up to your hair, finally getting out those last stubborn pieces and massaging your scalp in a way you didn’t know you needed. and then the shower’s over.
— you’re left in the bathroom alone for a few moments picking gore bits out from under your nails as kevin grabs some clothes for you. an old oversized band tee and a clean pair of his own tighty-whities, how ridiculously unfit for a hero of such high standing.. and yet you put them on without a second thought, letting the feel of his boxers against your skin really sink in. nice enough. he’s a fan too, judging by how he’s eyeing you.
— “better?” he asks softly you’re both dressed. he’s concerned which isn’t unusual. he’s always worried about something, worried you’re somehow hurt or worried you’ll get in trouble; you’re always explaining that you’re powerful. the only one who could stop you was homelander him-fucking-self. and you had no worries about that happening, not when the all american asshat had some bitch he was bending over for himself against company orders.
— “much better,” you reply, coming over and resting your hands at his hips. you press your foreheads together the best you can, kissing at his lips. “much better, baby. thank you.” maybe it wasn’t so bad, fucking a guy named kevin. maybe it could even make you feel human.

Maybe this is stupid but how do you handle liking Homelander but him being like Yknow a piece of crap and the whole r wording. Cuz I have some sort of stupid attraction to him but it makes me feel all sorts of guilty and gross and maybe that’s bc I already have mental issues and worry I’ll be punished or ridiculed or something bc of it and idk. It sounds really dumb but idk how to get out of the weird funk cycle bc I don’t like using the “it’s just fiction” either bc that doesn’t make me feel any better. Feel free to ignore this I’m just having a moment 😭
aw, darling. i'm saying this gently and kindly with my whole heart: introspection. me telling you why i'm okay with loving a fictional character isn't going to help you come to terms with the fact you do, especially since "it's just fiction" IS enough for me.
Homelander does not have victims. you cannot have Homelander arrested. no one you know or will ever know has been harmed by the text and images that combine to create this non-existent figment of our collective imaginations.
it sounds to me like your guilt/shame is primarily coming from your fear of judgement. that's not surprising given how heavily influenced fandom has become by puritan ideology. people ARE extremely cruel to one another these days for their preferences in media. you have to make the choice to break away from that. connect with people you feel safe around. no one is morally superior for their preference in fiction.
and also like... i'm not comfortable with EVERYONE in my life knowing how much i like Homelander. i absolutely have friends i would be embarrassed to try and explain it to. but i don't have to! it's not their business, it's mine.
having empathy for a fictional (and very tragic!) character does not make you a bad person any more than enjoying horror movies or violent video games would. please don't let anyone convince you that it does.
#y'all carrying some religious trauma levels of fandom guilt#it's not healthy!#i love you i hope you are able to give yourself some grace and find some peace#anyways i'm not a therapist so don't take this as mental health advice#but i guarantee you that unpacking the roots of that guilt and shame you're feeling is a better answer than i can offer#bc i simply do not feel shame or guilt for something that does not and cannot harm people#fiction is a metaphor. it's expression and abstract#yes it can mirror reality but it's so important that we acknowledge that it ISN'T real both internally and externally#ask and you shall receive#darling anon

God's Creation of Eve
aka the slight Interview with the Vampire (2022 series) crossover one shot.
for those reading fandom blind, Lestat is an 18th century French Vampire who has a rather toxic relationship with his lover, Louis(who is a black man in 1910s Louisiana)
cw: death, depression, grief, murder, cover ups
the face claim for younger!Eva is Arantza Ruiz who played a young Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz in the long cancled series, Juana Ines.
pairings: Eva & Lestat de Lioncourt, Eva x Tommy Shelby, Eva x Luca Changretta, Eva x Brilliant Chang and Eva x Jack Nelson
@zablife @call-sign-shark @justrainandcoffee @novashelby @hoodeddreams13 @thegreatdragonfruta
They had met an opera.
He thought she’d be easy prey only for the fourteen-year-old witch to turn the tables on him as his own thoughts made their way into her brain. Only vampires could communicate with each other like this and the teenage girl didn’t waste any time in taking advantage of it.
She had so much to live for, a Mexico without a tyrant, her career as a prima ballerina and adulthood in these Roaring Twenties she sees so much in her visions.
“I know what you are Monsieur de Lioncourt.” The little witch had said with a charming smile. “And I know who you seek too.”
Not a what, but a who.
A person to fill the gaping hole his beloved Nicholas had left, a person who will love him forever and be his forever.
“I should have known you’re a witch. Your blood was too enticing to be that of an ordinary human.” The blond man stills the air around him so the little witch can share every bit the universe had allowed her to know of his soulmate.
Louis de Pointe du Lac, a beautiful man with a sad soul and no twin in existence. He lived in New Orleans in a place called Storyville. Louis was thirty-three years old, had a sister named Grace, mad brother named Paul and a propensity to pay for Miss Lily at the Fair Play Saloon.
The Frenchman forgets his hunt as she shares every vision she had of this man and their happiness in Louisiana while only half paying attention to the opera before them. Lestat de Lioncourt had been there when it was first composed, he knew it by heart and would eventually share it with his beloved.
They will dance together in their bliss, they will hunt together and live in the French Quarter for several decades. And even more, he’d create a daughter to complete their family.
Claudia, a consummate killer just like him.
“I shall spare you in gratitude for this…gift.” The Frenchman had said and focused on a different meal.
Six years after all of Eva’s dreams go up in a puff of smoke. Just two years later she loses her ability to dance thanks to a fracture in her ankle, her family dies before her eyes and 1920 might be a year she might not even live to see.
Eva in her madness had used her abilities to find him and beg him to end her misery. She had done everything to forget her grief, everything she wanted done before she died and now, she wanted to see whether the vampire can bestow her one last gift.
She doesn’t know how she gets to his doorstep, but the witch does and she stands before the Vampire Lestat and an immortal Louis de Pointe du Lac.
“Why would I kill you, when I owe you my Louis?” the vampire smiled like Lucifer and instead of making her a fine dinner for him and his lover, he makes a sister for Louis and an eternal friend out of the teenage girl who convinced him to let her go. “You shall dance again, laugh again and when the time comes, find your own Louis.”
The witch had felt pain before but not like that.
Her beauty was enhanced, her magical blood allowed for her to retain her abilities postmortem and her desire for death turned to a desire for blood.
She had been twenty years old then and would be that way for the rest of eternity. Her first meal is a man who mistook her for a prostitute.
Eva ---now given a new purpose--- left her beloved homeland and lived as their sister until she felt confident enough in her enhanced abilities to find her own eternal companion.
Lestat had not wanted to until she uses the same trick she used to keep him from killing her.
She showed him the man who could make her as happy as Louis makes him.
Tommy Shelby.
He lived in Small Heath where her senile grandmother lived as well, and no one suspected it was she who was behind those deaths Campbell believed the Peaky Blinders had done. As far as the man knew, Grace was compromised on the job and not fed as she walked home one evening.
Her heart soared and beat in tandem to his when she met in person.
Thomas Shelby so full of pain that his smile looked like a grimace half the time. Her telepathy allowed him to feel understood, to be able to communicate without struggling to find the words that don’t exist yet and confide in another being how alone he felt.
Then she fed a little from him, they made love until the sun came up and he’d return at dusk without her even asking him to. He didn’t hear the shovels with her, he said.
She stopped time for him so he could sleep in peace, his family adored her and she hoped she could share her dark gift with him or take him to Lestat whom she owed this joy to.
She would’ve turned him if he hadn’t shown up bloody that night in December. The vampire witch had learned restraint and yet it failed her completely that night.
As far as everyone knows, Tommy Shelby stepped into the Cut on December 3rd ,1919.
Eva Smith returned to New Orleans heartbroken just as Claudia appeared to cover up the cracks in the foundation.
“You are leaving again, ma petite sorcière.” He said almost sadly. He hated abandonment, his own mother had left him after he made her and now he fears Eva would leave and soon enough Louis and Claudia would too.
“I’ll visit, and New York is not far for a vampire.” The witch assured him and added to make him chuckle, “Besides four coffins is too cramped for a married couple. Poor Claudia has to hear the two of you doing the dirty so close to her coffin.”
“Fine, you may go. Use the wealth the dead you still has and enjoy these Roaring Twenties you’ve been dying to experience since you were Claudia’s age.” He says not hiding his pain nor his thoughts of how he hates it when they leave him alone.
As alone as he felt after Magnus self immolated in front of him.
Her mother’s family receives her with equal parts horror and relief.
They knew what she was, though only she’d been given their family’s magical legacy, those with the blood of witches can always find other nonhumans with great ease. They know she is a vampire and most know it is better she live forever than have died so young.
New York provides great distraction from her grief and ensuing loneliness, she feasts on people who are not missed, and her coffin is not kept in a trunk in the basement, instead it is kept as a sort of joke in her parlor where people come to test her abilities.
She is the Witch of the Upper West Side, an enigmatic socialite who only comes out at night. Lestat de Lioncourt comes rarely, though more often as his marriage becomes fractures more with every strain. If he’s not with her he’s with Antoinette, same Antoinette that will be another nail in the cofffin if he doesn’t change his course.
“But you said he will be mine forever and that is what matters.” He points out and dismisses her advice with a dramatic sigh as they hunt tasty young men working for the Black Hand. They will blame the Irish or the Jews, no one will think it was the Frenchman and the Mexican woman their boss couldn’t help but stare at the opera.
Inevitably, Eva falls in love again. Another gangster, Italian with big dreams and while sixteen years her elder, loved her enough to make her dead heart beat for another again. She took precautions, considered turning him so she’d be spared the grief this time around only for him to go alone to England and never return.
It was the curse of the immortal, to outlive everyone you love.
It was 1925, Eva should’ve have been a wife and a mother by now and yet she was exactly as she was that night she awoke in the lavish guestroom at Rue Royale
Alone and with a pain with no cure.
She encounters Claudia months after Louis had come to see her hoping she’d be with her. The girl had gone on a murder spree seeking to make a companion and until she returned, the vampires had to stay underground for the suspicion to die down for good. Her departure had broken Louis who couldn’t make himself leave the house hoping for her return.
Lestat had wanted to join her in New York, but chose to stay with Louis in New Orleans. Before they parted ways again, he advised her how to comport herself with vampires in the old world and mentioned the Theatre de Vampires in Paris.
He warned her not to stay long and if she did, that her behavior never gave any of them any chance to put her on trial for their bullshit laws.
She travels before the world goes to shit again. She feasts, fucks and flees the moment people begin to suspect.
It is Paris just as the world comes crashing down in something called the Depression. The City of Lights hosts many who feel the brunt of the fall and others who survived it with the hoards of wealth untouched.
Brilliant Chang lives lavishly even if the English fucked him over so badly he had to fake his death. He loved his women, especially the woman with cash to burn who made him chase her as her humanity continued to slip away from her the longer she stayed as a guest with Armand.
Billy Chang’s opium allowed her to feel as high as he did during their little feedings, he wanted the Gift, to be her lover forever and never grow old as the world forgot who he had ever been.
And yet, her beloved Chang Chan Nan does not survive the transformation. A blessing because the Coven would’ve used it as an excuse to kill her.
It is 1933 and she makes the world believe he’d gone on a boat to China as his body burns in the house they shared for those four years.
She stays in New York City again, hating herself and starving herself until she meets another man whose blood sings to her like his predecessors once had.
He had had a wife, a lovely boring creature with no fire in her.
Eva could confirm that even her blood had been as lifeless and unsatisfactory as she’d been in life. Jack didn’t care, he’d married her to make a legacy through his children who needed the right blood to make it where their father could never.
In fact, the South Boston gangster had been turned on by the act of him being rid of his vapid wife. They had fucked as the body burned in the incinerator and her blood stained their clothes.
He had never loved her, she was a means to climb the ladder anyways.
Jack provides her with people to feed on by hunting them down for her, his loud brash personality so different from her other lovers and yet she loves him just as much as she loved those before him.
“I want to be forever with you.” He says when he returns from England in 1934 ready to take the next step in their relationship. The vampiress has drawn this out of fear of killing him, she had hoped to go to New Orleans and have her Maker give him the Dark Gift.
But, her lover and fiancé had wanted her to be the one to make him. To give him a new life where no real limit exists and he’d have no real need for a legacy when they’d live on forever.
This time, as if by divine providence, she is able to become not only his lover, but his Maker. The god he worships, the woman he will love forever and asks her to marry him after they feed together on a sumptuous feast she’d caught just for him.
Jack Nelson makes her his wife and takes her to Boston even if she can never give him the legacy he had long desired. They are the Nelsons who keep a lavish coffin for two hidden in a walk-in closet only he and she can open.
The happiness Lestat had promised her just like the one she promised him that night had finally come.

So, last night Antony Starr shared this on his IG story:
What does this mean? It’s anyone’s guess. Given what he’s shared to his stories recently, I think he’s been going through a really tough time lately. And the whole Mortal Kombat mess didn’t exactly help.
To clarify: Antony made a post on Saturday sharing pictures of him with his dogs. A fan commented asking if he would be voicing Homelander in MK1, to which he simply replied “nope.”
Of course, it’s now all over twitter with tons of news articles about it much to the anger and disappointment of fans. Not only that, but tweeting him directly about it.
I’m not saying this post to his story is in relation to the MK thing, but it does go to show that fans can be the best and worst part of a fandom. There’s still time where he could be brought in to do the voice work, the strikes are now over and the Homelander DLC doesn’t drop till March. We also don’t know the circumstances. He might not even have been asked to do the voice. We simply don’t know, but attacking Antony directly won’t achieve anything. He could also be under a NDA.
There’s now concern over his story post as it just reads like he’s at his wits end with the world, everyone and everything, and I truly don’t blame him. Aren’t we all?
Please, please, please take this as a reminder to be respectful towards actors. We don’t know them and they don’t know us. They aren’t our friends, they don’t owe us anything. And even if it seems like they’re living the good life with fame and fortune, they’re still human just like us. Attacking actors because we don’t get our way does NOT help.
And as an added reminder: Antony wasn’t paid for his Gen V Cameo. He attended set and filmed on his days off. He did it for the fans, as did Karl Urban.
Now again, to clarify: I’m not saying it’s because of fans that Antony made this story post. My point is that attacking him with question after question as to why he isn’t “giving us what we want”, isn’t helping.
I truly hope he’ll be okay and has folk around him to support him. But it sounds like the poor guy just needs his space, and we need to respect and give him that.
To anyone else feeling this way, sending tons of love and hugs your way. Please know you aren’t alone, and if you need to talk to someone, I’m here. As is my Homelander ( @hom3land3r ). While I am in no way a professional, I can absolutely lend an ear. And if Homelander gives you comfort, he’ll also be there for those that need it.
Love you guys.
Be kind. 🫂💙

Preface: I’m a card carrying member of the Homelander Is So Cute UwU club, and a lot of the fic I consume is various ways to get a redemption wish fulfillment.
And even with this level of HL bs tolerance, I periodically come across a sentiment in this fandom that, frankly, gives me bad vibes: “HL is not written as a rapist in the TV show and Becca would have been the one outlier event, so it probably didn’t happen that way.”
Are we watching the same show? The creepy way he talks over Maeve at the race in S1E3, the way he strongarms his way into a fake relationship with Starlight in S3, the threat of harvesting Maeve’s eggs right after assuring he’d never do something as gross as force himself on her…. Are all pretty rapey.
It’s a particular flavor of rapey, and quite different from the one in the Garth Ennis comics, granted. At the risk of being reductive, I’ll reference the Groth rapist subtyping (proven problematic when used to categorize real people but good enough for this):
HL in the comics is presented a sadistic rapist: The type that gets off on their victim’s suffering, that likes to emphasize their victim’s helplessness, and the power differential between them. This goes for Starlight’s initiation, Becca’s rape, and even colors the Soldier Boy herogasm scene which is allegedly consensual but definitely not in the #metoo era.
HL in the show is presented as a power rapist: the type that actually plays down any power differential, and wants to delude themselves into thinking that the victim was willing all along or (perhaps even better!) came around because of the rapist’s sheer sexual prowess. The force used is often soft— words over physicality— and sometimes oblique (I.e. ‘the implication’ in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia). The usual MO of the daterapist.
Homelander being nervous and subby with Madelyn doesn’t negate those scenes— she has a very particular role in his life to have that dynamic with him. The possibility of him being ‘groomed’ by her at an early age doesn’t negate that either. If anything, people who are sexually abused are more likely to become abusers themselves.
All that said, can you hc that he isn’t a rapist? Can you write fic set in a universe where these scenes didn’t happen? Of course.
Am I saying Kripke and team did an impeccable, nuanced job with this subject matter? No.
But I cringe every time I see the “HL could never rape anyone ever, he lasers people but he’s a sub and we all know subs can’t rape anyone, and that’s canon!” discourse on tumblr, and its close cousin on Reddit of “HL is so awesome, why would he need to rape anyone / who would ever refuse him.”
………… and now you can argue with me if you want lol, the floor is yours.

“How curious…there’s a sketchbook on the ground. Well, it wouldn’t hurt to take a look, would it?”
As you flip through the pages you notice these things:
The artist goes by the name Siphok. A peculiar name, isn’t it? Don’t you just wonder what that means?
The artist only draws Twisted Wonderland, including her OCs that are in the fandom.
The artist draws comics, plain art, or does animatics.
The artist does not draw NSFW or gore, whatsoever.
Art requests are something the artist wishes to do, and she loves drawing for her followers and mutuals.
The artist reblogs a lot of Twisted Wonderland fics, do keep in mind to block tags mentioned below if you do not wish to see it. She”s quite lazy, so she tends to not switch to her spam account.
The artist is quite friendly, feel free to leave a note or two in the back of her sketch book. (askbox)
“There are sticky notes between the pages. How strange…”
❦siphok-reblogs❦ (for reblogs of art/fan-fiction)
✰siphok-moots✰ (her mutuals, they have a special place in her heart)
༄siphok-chatters༄ (she answers whatever question thrown her way)
☂︎︎siphok-museum☂︎︎ (for her art, specifically)
☞︎siphok-spams☜︎ (she spams quite a lot, but they don’t involve in anything else.)
➪siphok-ANNOUNCING➪ (for announcements)
“Having fun, are we?….You buffoon! She’s walking over here— you’ll get caught!”
As you hide in the bushes, you notice something about the artist.
She’s South East Asian, specifically from Thailand. English is not her first language, and the artist appreciates it greatly if you don’t judge her for her bad grammar.
The artist goes by she/her pronouns
The artist loves literature and reading, however, she does have a bad habit of buying news books despite not finishing previous ones. Crime and Punishment is one of her favorites, along with No Longer Human. (she did not finish Crime and Punishment, what a clown)
The artist loves history. You can leave notes about fun facts on history, and she’ll love it more if you share your homeland’s history, mythology, and culture. The artist’s is always open minded, and is excited to hear what you’ll leave in her sketchbook.
The artist is quite forgetful, hence why she forgot her sketchbook on the ground in the first place.
Her favorite characters are Leona Kingscholar, Riddle Rosehearts, and Jamil Viper. But she does love other characters dearly.
“The artist is…writing a letter? Squint your eyes; maybe you’ll see who she’s writing to.”
@ceruleancattail , the talented mage next door, ready to acquire all your magical needs
@shinmon-c , the prison guard of Milgrim prison, do be careful now
@twistedchatterbox , the water nymph of Octavinelle. you may want to watch your back; or she’d pull you into the depths of the ocean. but, it seems like you don’t mind, do you?
@oepionie , the love witch. are you interested in capturing one’s heart?
@fukashiin , what a lively soul. you can feel the warm rays of sunshine beaming onto your soul just by the look of that name
@azurevi , quite the talented author they are. they have left a deep impression that the artist will never forget
@taruruchi the artist’s new acquaintance, she is excited to interact more with them
@ryuuryuuhoney , the artist doesn’t know when their wedding will be held with Trey— excuse me, Tr*ey
@the-dumber-scaramouche , a new acquaintance whom the artist simps on Leona with
@hisui-dreamer , a talented author the artist have just be acquainted with. their works are quite lovely
@the-v-lociraptor , ah finally….someone who shares the same interests with the artist
“You idiot! You’re breathing too— loud…..”
You are caught red-handed by the artist. Perhaps some day you’ll get to see her OCs. What were their names again? Ah, yes…
Charin, the half-merman and Yaksha, and Anan..the fallen aristocrat

AO3 Masterlist
A masterlist of my ongoing fics on AO3 (One-shots and abandoned fics not included.)
My Hero Academia
breaking through the storm clouds
Kurogiri time-travel AU. "My name is Tenko." Tom - Tenko, all of five years old, looks up at Oboro with large, clear eyes. "Not Shigaraki Tomura. And you're not Kurogiri either." In which Kurogiri wakes up in the past and promptly decides to raise a young Tenko on his own, and maybe round up the rest of the League while he's at it, because they're really just a group of broken people who need hugs and guidance. Too bad he's still technically a high school student, and All For One isn't going to take kindly to his plans being interrupted.
Rekindling Fire
Dabi & Hawks time-travel AU "What about you, Todoroki? Are you going to follow Endeavor's footsteps when you grow up?" It isn't until he hears Endeavor that Dabi realizes he's being addressed. "Oh, me? No, I'm going to grow up to be a serial killer." His classmates stare. The teacher coughs awkwardly and changes the subject.
Other Fandoms
burns like the cold. [Fandom: Adventure Time / Fionna & Cake]
Fionna’s kiss doesn’t immediately kill the Winter King, the gang spends more time in the winter wonderland, and Simon uncovers one sinister secret after another in the seemingly perfect kingdom. Fionna slams her mug on the table, grinning, and Simon regrets all his life choices. "I have icicles where no icicles should be. Simon, magic is awesome." It's a horrible idea. Simon leans in anyway, meeting the Winter King halfway.
my father didn't tell me how to live. [Fandom: The Boys / Gen V]
Soldier Boy does raise Homelander, for a time. It changes everything and nothing. "You're alive," Homelander says. He doesn't know what he's feeling. What he should be feeling. "You're a fucking disappointment, John," his father says.
And straight on till morning. [Fandom: Once Upon A Time]
Cursed Pan AU. From time to time, Peter Pan visits the Enchanted Forest. It is unfortunate that he does so when the curse hits.
Aetatis. [Fandom: Naruto]
Hashirama & Madara time-travel AU, except Madara is still Kaguya's vessel. When Hashirama wakes up as a child again, he vows to protect his family and form a truce with the Uchiha sooner. When Madara wakes up in the same situation as a girl with a face suspiciously similar to the rabbit goddess who killed him, he wonders why the gods hate him.
Time and time again. [Fandom: Naruto]
Snippets of Aetatis
In the pale moonlight. [Fandom: Detective Conan / Magic Kaito]
Black Org! Kaito AU When Kuroba Toichi's stage explodes, it takes the magician and his wife with it. A young Kuroba Kaito is taken in by his father's remaining student... Sharon Vineyard. Years later, a phantom thief hits the streets of Japan, with an arsenal of black weapons. This changes the game for a certain shrunken detective.

Ophion [1]
Scenario: The strength and youth of his scales was something held pride in. Of course, he can’t keep his soul from soaring when he finds that you too admire them.
(Sorry if my writing style has changed too much. Depression does that when you let it rob your hobbies. Hopefully I’m not too rusty in writing for this fandom.)
A glinting gold, rivaling even that of the very sun hanging high up above this enclosed world of Tokyo. How was Ophion supposed to ignore this visage of his in front of the mirror and not sing his own praises? While the quality of his clothing doesn’t compare to the handmade clothes of his homeland, they serve their purpose in further enhancing the muscles embracing his structure.
The warm tones do well in making his natural colors pop out.
You, the one Ophion considers most precious, smoothly stood in front of him, blocking his view of the mirror. You reach out and snapped his suspender against his chest. Ophion felt no pain, but it made his heart flutter beneath his sturdy scales.
“Those things are strapped tight,” You chuckled as you pulled at them again. Ophion stopped you with a gentle finger on your wrist. “Hm?”
“Oh, my dear spouse,” Ophion has all the wealth in the world. It’s why he would so easily grab both his suspenders and let them tear, “if my clothes are getting in the way, all you have to do is say so. I won’t let anything stand in your way, especially if your goal is to have my glorious self.”
You snorted, smoothing a hand over the large expanse of his chest. Ophion had no choice but to puff up with pride. There’s no greater reward than your attention, after all.
“You say that as though I don’t already have you,” you drummed your fingers over his heart, “as though I haven’t hunted you, time and time again. Are you so eager for another game like that?”
In this near eternal cycle that is his life, of course such a thing would have him at your beck and call.
“If I say yes,” Ophion couldn’t keep his tongue from slipping over his teeth, “would you hunt for this beating heart once more? Would you take my precious body of gold for yourself?”
You thumb smoothed over the little but tightly aligned scales on his forearms. “Isn’t that natural when you’re placing yourself on the sliver platter for me?”

Why does everyone worships BOE? I mean sure the houses are bad.. but how does it makes BOE good? Have I missed something? Also I would argue that the Houses are not the colonial forces, after all they’ve all left Earth and colonized the space, and the houses at least are still operating within the solar system. Like we still don’t know shit about BOE - only that they are fanatics who speak strictly in hate speech and propaganda. Which is never a good sign. Like NEVER. They have culty names!!!!!!! Hello????
I think BoE are morally fucked and that’s very hot of them! I do think they’re slightly less morally fucked than the other side, ideologically. I think what the Houses are doing is very much imperialism, even though we don’t know enough to have the full details on the scope of it. We have John talking about ‘protectorates’, we have economic exploitation (but in a completely batshit way!) and forced relocation of refugees. BoE are also doing armed occupation of some New Rho segments but they don’t have a whole imperial infrastructure behind them.
I agree that we’re missing a lot of details re: House foreign policy & BoE - some more thoughts under the cut
We don’t know if the occupation is driven by a need for resources, or by pure militarism (revenge + perpetual war keeps the Houses under control) or by some other reason. We don’t know how many inhabited planets are out there and how many are occupied by the Houses and to which extent — the Houses can’t really expand beyond their home system because necromancy, so why are they occupying planets they don’t live in? Also, they ‘flip’ planets, making them inhabitable to native lifeforms, but also that seems to be on a much longer time scale than the human lifetime; can those be repurposed for habitation later on? We don’t know! It��s SO juicy and so much is missing.
We will probably get some information in Alecto. I don’t think we will get all information, mostly because I really don’t think the political background is THAT important to the story Tazmuir is trying to tell. She’s primarily telling a story about emotions, I think, not politics. But I think we’ll see more of where they came from.
Most of what we know so far points to BoE being an irredentist liberation group, but they also 100% do commit terrorist acts, like, on the page. They have the vague ultimate goal of getting rid of the Houses, but their day-to-day goal seems to be only to kill as many necromancers as possible, and they’re absolutely committed to getting there by doing shit like, burning people alive and shooting up public places without much care for civilians getting caught in the middle. Yea, Ianthe’s reasoning for calling BoE terrorism is coming from a place of moral fuckery, but MY reason for saying so is that they are committing crimines to foster a state of fear among the civilian population in the pursuit of political goals. They do that by burning people alive.
BoE also do have a cult-like attitude regarding everything Earth, but I’m not sure yet how we’re supposed to interpret it. There’s absolutely a benign angle to it (connection to a long lost homeland) but also I find it VERY juicy that after allegedly ten thousand years their culture is still mostly rooted on Earth. It doesn’t seem to have moved beyond the myth of their lost ancestral home; why are you still naming your kids after Shakespeare? Who has written the great tragedies in the last millenia? Their lack of cultural advancement (and technological!) is the main reason why I think there could be some time travel theories going on.
You’re right that we don’t know what their ultimate goal is, it could be more malicious than most of the fandom tends to assume, or it could be more benign. I’m very excited to find out but without ascribing any moral intention to who’s stanning who. I’m an equal side war criminal enjoyer, ALL women blowing shit up are hot to me <3
#the way the houses do imperialism in as yet unsent is INSANE. lifetime contracts with the immortal emperor??#it's a UNHINGED touch of worldbuilding. love it.#also love that a tipsy post i made on nye caused this....#tlt thoughts#blood of eden#tlt#anonymous#ask#LEAVING NOW. BYE

Spoilers for SU I guess?
Ok but that’s not the end of it, Pearl has done so much for rose since the beginning. Like girl faked the death of what basically was an empress for her. Quit her homeland, quit her dream of exploring the universe, and fought a war
And ok, Rose doesn’t have to return her feelings for all that, but she also LIED to her about what happened to one of their close friends and MORE
Rose isn’t a bad person (or a great one Tbf) and is actually a really complex one, but you can see why the fandom got blindsided and got mad at her for 2 years
No prob for spoilers, I won't watch it, I know absolutely Nothing abt the fandom or the show or any controversies, I used to but I bleached my memory of it to enjoy the vibes! And WOWWIEEE what interesting vibes, how dramatic, how tragic~~~

Hi, I just wanna say I LOVE Truce ❤️❤️, your writing(l'm amazed sometimes because it's just too good) and can't wait for the new chapter. Can I ask when are you gonna update?
This Ask is regarding the status of this PWP on AO3:
Hi! I’m just gonna combine these two anon Asks because they’re asking the same thing, haha. Firstly, thank you. Muah muah. 😘 💞
Secondly, hopefully this year. I dunno exactly when yet but hopefully it’s possible with my work schedule and any irl setbacks. I can’t give an exact date as of right now because I don’t like making false promises. Nothing takes the wind outta my sails than setting a deadline—and failing to meet it; it will give me writer’s block, haha. You can read my reply to an anon Ask here; it’s asking about two different fics of mine but my answer remains the same: I don’t like sacrificing quality for quantity. I prefer taking a longer time than rushing out a subpar update. A chapter will be ready when it’s ready. In the interim, I will post sneak peeks, update the status bar, and only give an ETA the week before it’s ready to be posted. I recommend my readers to turn on their Subscribe notifs so they’ll be notified when it’s ready.
Technically I can split ch3 into two chapters like I did for ch2, but that means the upcoming update is just 90% set-up. Billy and Homelander don’t physically interact yet in the set-up. Neither do they share a dialogue exchange. And I think that’s boring, no? I’d rather y’all read ch3 for its full intended effect, with the set-up and foreshadowing leading to the payoff. It is, after all, the chapter with their 🔞 First Time. A lot of exciting things happen this chapter after the set-up. Homelander flying Billy outerspace “as a date,” their first Team Up, kitchen sex (their first), Billy’s debut as a superhero + vice captain role in The Seven with Billy’s “bloody” birthday present to Homelander. It’s my favorite chapter outta the bunch because of the exhilarating rollercoaster ride it is—and I don’t want to take that away from y’all.
Also in the interim, you can read my butchlander threadfics here on tumblr and definitely on my Twitter thread here. They’re my humble peace offerings whilst I am working on Truce. :)
———
So this part isn’t particularly directed at you, Anon(s), but a pet peeve of mine are readers demanding updates, readers who assume I’ve discontinued/ abandoned a story, and readers who keep pushing for an update even though I’ve already nicely informed them of when to realistically expect an update from me and why it’s taking a long time. There’s one reader on one of my stories whom, for a good part of this year, has sent maybe over 99+ comments on AO3 trying to psychologically pressure/ guilt trip me into updating a certain fic. Like, their words are very kind and I’m happy they adore my fic to bits, and I’m sure they have good intentions, but it doesn’t make me, the writer, comfortable seeing someone say things like “I’m obsessed with this fic; I check for updates everyday; I think and breathe this fic; if you don’t update, I’m going to die; when are you going to update? Please, this story is too good to be abandoned/discontinued, I don’t want that to happen to [insert fic] like all the other abandoned stories in this fandom. All I think about is this fic; I read this story every day. I can’t breathe if I don’t see any update.” Or the alternative: “[insert compliment] but I just know this story is abandoned/discontinued, and that’s such a shame.”
Y’all, this ain’t the motivation or encouragement you think it is. It’s incredibly demotivating and making me want to take even longer outta spite :/, especially if I’d taken time to reply to the reader’s Comment reiterating essentially what I said above in bullet point #2. Asking the writer again and again for an update a hundred times in a row is not going to change their mind. It’s a lil disconcerting.
#ask#anon#phoenix talks#truce#sorry the last part is a bit not nice (sorry!!) but I think I’ve developed slight PTSD from that one reader 😥#like they’re nice—but it does feel unbelievably uncomfortable when your Inbox gets 99+ comments from the same reader asking for an update#do my words mean nothing? what’s the point of me writing a reply when you’re going to ask me again & again to a question I already answered#sorry about the vent at the end 😭 it’s not directed at you but I needed to say it#regarding why truce is taking so long: life and writer’s block happened#your girl got busy with multiple design projects + got hit with COVID#I work M-Sat 8AM-6PM (sometimes 8PM) & sometimes Sundays#real life obligations do take priority over hobby writing 🙂↕️ most of the time I come home wanting to sleep

I agree that the Wanda hate feels very disingenuous and not made in good faith. Hell, I think Wanda is harder to hate vs other characters in fiction in general, including characters people suck off like Homelander.
Wanda is a character that I view as a kind character. Someone who has a view on herself akin to Rocket, aka hating herself and doesn’t view herself as a good person, but she has done selfless things throughout her life. It’s like people only view her as the government in the MCU view her and I don’t think that’s fair, but more importantly, it’s also not even a good way to look at her and her character.
Idk, point is I really love her, and I really wish people would actually talk about her character in good faith.
me too, I wish people would just see how interesting her character is,
I think one of the reasons that there are so many 'Wanda hate' ....is because she's a woman, I know they wouldn't admit it, and they are always going to say that it's she's because 'she's poorly written'...well she's kinda is after Wandavision....(Also saying them her in Dsmom don't make sense is kinda not true at all like sure her villain arc is rushed but where her anger is not hard to understand)
you can tell they didn't care about the writing either because that doesn't stop from loving badly written male character before
Wanda Maximoff have everything they would like to a character, if she was a man, they would be all over her by now, but since she's not they so "can't relate to her" or "she wasn't cool enough"
I once see a post on TikTok making edits about characters with "aura" or whatever trend thing is trending there and all of the boys in the comments are whining about her being included....
Like I don't understand how in hell somebody could think that someone like Homelander or the joker to be better than Wanda? Oh wait because they think those characters is 'cool' and have a "valid or cool reason to be villain" and is "well written" ... totally not because they project their horrible "sigma" or whatever fantasy to these characters....
And they always use the reason that 'Wanda stans' are annoying... but most of them are literally just defending Wanda's "crimes" which is fine because she's a fictional character, or is saying she's the most powerful avenger...which she is...Feige himself said so....and they don't like it
Like it's fine to hate on mcu's version of Wanda Maximoff if it's because of the casting choice... it's understand to be upset about that...or you understand the character but you simply don't like her? That's fine....but come on if the hate is simply because it's a 'trend' or because you're upset about a female character being stronger than a man....then 😐😐😐
Sometimes I feel like the "Wanda hate" is more annoying than Wanda stans...like a fan could literally be talking about Wanda like a regular fan and somebody is always going to fucking whine... that's why I left twitter I can't even post about Wanda without some asshole replying or quoting it....you couldn't watch a viral Wanda edit on TikTok without a manbabies talking about how a [random male character from another popular media] is better...they were always so fucking upset...like it's so obvious that its not because of anything she did or the casting problem and it's just annoying you can't do anything to defend Wanda against these freaks either because if you sounds to agressive you're now apparently a "toxic Wanda stan"...like omg toxic toxic toxic...all of this started because since WV ended these people couldn't stand that Wanda is someone that is powerful I swear the strongest avenger debates is hilarious in earlier days but God after that "you surpass the sorcerer supreme" line thingy [if I remember it correctly] in WV drop I feel like that's where all hell Break loose...and then it got worse pre and post dsmom,....like obviously Wanda stans are you going defend Wanda... that's our favorite character....and it's a normal thing in a fandom.... I don't understand why these people are upset other than misogyny....
It's so obvious...like you don't have the right to talk how 'horrible' Wanda's action were....if the character that you like is someone that is worse... like
And also I hate how people downgrade Wanda's reason on being a villain....like they always say how her motives "weren't enough"... like they ignoring everything that happens to her on purpose...like what happens during her childhood are literally a valid reason to be a villain and no idc if other people suffers more than her', different people process sadness and anger differently...this woman at the age of ten loss her parents in one of the worst way possible and probably did not get to chance to bury them properly and process her emotion at such a young age....and then her brother die years later and just like that she's alone all over again and everyone around acts like she's a walking time bomb that can explode any time, she's in a foreign country that she used to hate and is the same county that where the bombs that kills her parents come froms a country that worship the man that is literally the reason her parents died,...and then there is vision... somebody who is an outcast like her... I hate the fact that everybody treats vision like a sextoy shut up shut up no he isn't, that man is the only person in there that love Wanda truly....they understand each other and they were happy.... before Thanos ruins everything...and then boom their happiness is shattered and suddenly she have to kill the only man in the world that cares about her....she have no choice..she have to kill the only man in the world that loves her that understand her for people that don't care enough wether she lives or die,....God she was probably so happy when she got turned into dust.....and then she's back to life again...and she realizes she's alone again....
Wanda is literally a good person...she cares about people...she care about those who she hurts...
Because if she was somebody who is 'evil'
She wouldn't switch sides during AoU, she wouldn't cry during the Lagos incident, she wouldn't kill vision and would probably just escapes and she wouldn't let go of Westview....but she did all of that because she cares to much about the lives of people who don't even think about her....she just wants people to accept her...man like she just wants somebody to understand her...all of the stuff that happened in dsmom is because people treat her like shit
...she makes me so freaking sad I am sorry I am rambling with my bad English...I was just so upset that people downgrade Wanda's character....and I am glad other people get me

No offense to that anon, but every time I see comments like 'Lyanna and Elia were both victims of Rhaegar's actions and their deaths illustrate that' is so profoundly tone deaf I don't even know where to begin. Not to make this the suffering olympics, but Elia's last year of life was literal misery while she was held hostage in KL by a mad king with her baby and toddler after being abandoned and shamed by her husband before she and her kids got one of the most gruesome deaths in the series. Lyanna ran off with Rhaegar to his wife's homeland and was...umm...getting romanced....in a fucking tower and then had three kingsguard catering to her and keeping her safe while the realm fought a war over it all. She then died in the arms of her brother who would then go on to keep her baby safe keeping the promise she made to him. Seeing comments like 'I feel like Ned and Oberyn would really relate to each other because they both lost sisters as a result of Rhaegar's actions' send me on another level. Yeah, the phrasing of 'lost sisters' is doing A LOT of work here. This fandom being astoundingly unable to read a room when it comes to their bias for the Starks is truly something else.
(about this ask)
Oh, I think anon is working under the assumption (that most people in this side of the fandom have) that Lyanna was abducted and raped. I no longer think that’s what happened, but a lot of people think she was held prisoner in Dorne. And their intention was to be anti Rhaegar, not to try to weigh what the two women suffered against each other.
As for Elia, I completely agree about all she’s suffered. Rhaegar is my most hated character for a reason. I cant wrap my head around his actions no matter which motivation I look at. It doesn’t quite fit with this description of him as a rather sensitive kind of guy (in contrast to Robert), to treat his wife the way he did even if he were “in love.” And, if he was thinking strategically about an objective (prophecy baby) it seems counterproductive to offend people and set everyone on edge? To announce some interest openly? And taking Lyanna to Dorne…idk why Martin did that. Rhaegar is a box of contradictions to me, how the family members of Lyanna and Elia think/don’t think about him only adds to my confusion because that’s where we would expect Martin to guide us.
Also, regardless of whatever the hell was going on with him, if Lyanna was a departure from his mission or a means to an end, regardless of his feelings for his wife, the safety of his heir should have been a top priority, and we know he had concerns about his father so not taking further measures there is very strange.

I’d love to hear more about your avatar! Pakku aus 👀
Tysm!! I know alot of people in the fandom don’t like him very much (which is valid honestly) but nonetheless I’m pretty glad you want to hear more thoughts on it.
Now the reason I have two aus is due to the fact that I had two ways of going about it and so I decided—why not just make two separate ones? Now as far as I know, both aus have similar outcomes and events though oddly enough, I’m more so focusing on Freewill! rather than Destiny!. But anyways:
In Freewill!, it’s basically about Pakku living and growing up outside his homeland, giving him a somewhat better idea of the world beyond the isolated walls of the tribe. And upon learning his destiny (thanks to a dream-vision of a certain bald monk), he and his sister set out to find himself some teachers while avoiding enemy forces that have settled in some parts of the Earth Kingdom. And thanks to Aang’s assistance, they were aiming to get to Omashu so Pakku would he trained by the ruler at the time—King Hadi. But in the end, Pakku ends up befriending and having Hadi’s nephew, Bumi, be his teacher. Alot more things happen around this time but that is the basic synopsis of “Book 1” (though I’m avoiding to view these AUs as episodic and linear like ATLA and TLOK).
In Destiny!, Pakku was set on his role as Avatar much earlier in comparison to Freewill!Pakku. Growing up in the tribe, he was educated on the histories of his predecessors, was taught AND mastered waterbending, and was overall embracing his destiny. How he and Bumi meet in this AU’s “Book 1” is somewhat anticlimactic as Pakku was sent off with help from the tribe to be brought to Omashu for training. And so because of this, Pakku doesn’t meet any characters like Piandao (who’s sorta like the Jet of this AU) or Iroh (at least not yet).
In terms of personality, I would say that while Freewill!Pakku is confident in his abilities and much more adventurous (as well as less embracive the Northern Tribe’s gender customs), Destiny!Pakku is more so like his canon self only 5x worse. Cold and horribly stubborn—always sarcastic and is prone to snapping if things don’t go his way (horrible perfectionism & fear of failure). Ofc, if anything, I would say sarcasm, dry-wit, and no-nonsense-business is the only thing the two have in common.
And these are just the summaries and overall general ideas of the Pakkus’ and their AUs! I got alot more to talk about in terms of Iroh, Jeong Jeong, Piandao, Bumi, & numerous other characters. As well as the drastic change in the timeline!
