[yumeurl]

yknow i usually dont take reading hp seriously cuz like...its jkr, so any eyebrow raising plotpoints she introduces i atleast know why thats the case. thats not the same reading fanfics tho

like more than once i see in ship/rewrite fics abt characters shitting on or ignoring hermione for the s.p.e.w thing, that shes insulting them cuz house elves excluding dobby apparently dont like that. and i thought at first its just a weird attempt of lorebuild, but no it was actually just a book thing that some fanworks try to build up...for some reason

doesnt rly help that some of these came from popular fics

Context before getting into the actual idea: I recently saw some fanart based on concept art for Dr Ratio where he has slightly longer, messier hair and the fanart interpreted this as him having a bit of a rebellious phase when he was younger.

So now I’m just thinking about Reader going to school with him when he was going through this phase. He had a bit of a crush on her but didn’t know how to express it so he just messed with her constantly.

And now they meet again when he’s changed and he hasn’t gotten over her she’s just getting massive amounts of whiplash from how wildly different he is. Could be yandere 👀

Anon. I am GRIPPINT YOU BY THE SHOULDERS. Listen. Unfortunately i doubt i did this justice but i tried my best PLEASE okay

A bit long, under the cut!

Its not exactly easy to imagine Dr. Ratio of all people being rebellious, but that just makes it even more possibly believeable in my opinion. I am deeply convinced he has had his crazy scientist, jerkward asshole phase at least once and was soo deeply embarassed the moment he left it.

But listen. His professors all probably HATED him because he would probably constantly correct them, be so disgustingly overeducated to the point they'd send him to the library or tell him to get lost just so he wouldn't disrupt class. He's the infamous asshole who sits wherever he wants, and hoardes an entire table to himself if he's at the library or at the cafeteria. Any student who needs a pen or eraser or a pencil knows he's NOT the one to ask, even if it was in the middle of an exam worth half their grade and he was the only person beside them. He does literally anything he wants and no one can stop him except probably by force, and if they do, something worse ends up happening to them instead.

Anyways, here comes in reader. Probably already knows his sour reputation. Regardless, maybe you're the poor soul who's his seatmate. If the crush is already established, he's constantly bothering you. Asking for stationaries like the entirety of his desk isn't covered by it already (he likes the miniscule interaction), taking your notebooks without your knowledge and sometimes even scribbling inside of them (its his horrid handwriting, he's just trying to help you with detailed notes), he comments on how "lame" your outfit is, asking about your social life, rolling his eyes when your response isn't exactly.. pleasing (he's actually a bit content with it. Perhaps you'll hang out with him more, instead?). You note the smell of alcohol trailing him a bit everytime you interact with him.

It's not easy for him, especially when you can't seem to keep up and look so queasy around him. Aeons, his heart is so twisted up and squeezed everytime he seems to be getting more distant from you, but he just has no idea how to convey his feelings. Not when he didn't even account for the fact he'll have a crush on anyone in the first place.

Anyways, timeskip!

You're probably a researcher of some sort, maybe not so well known. Let's just say for the sake of simplicity you're a researcher on Herta's space station. It's not too soon before he runs into you, probably after the whole mess at the station's been "cleaned up" regarding the curio and whatever. Maybe he doesn't leave right after that interaction with Screwellum, and he decides to, by his curiosity, take a look around once again before he leaves (certainly not because he's heard a familiar name thrown around a few times).

And there you are. In your little research-getup, professional vernacular, hair all neat. He's probably right behind you in an instant, and you turn around to look as the colleague you were talking to suddenly starts stuttering and becoming squeamish while looking behind you. There he is, in all his (cruel?) Glory. The infamous asshole who was your classmate.

But.. it's surprising how much more mellow he's become (at least towards you?). His hair are neatly tamed, his build is taller and more muscular than it was back then, but his attire is also quite tame (if not a little.. fancy?), compared to his brash taste back then. His eyes still seem to hold contempt, but more distantly so.

Veritas figures your mouth is agape and you're speechless considering the change in his countenance as of recent. He's also not yet come to terms with the fact that his heart still twists and squeezes whenever he sees that unsure look on your face. If you were made of clay, and if he could, he'd meld the most beautiful smile on your face with his craftful fingers. Alas, he resorts to tamer methods. At least he supposes he's a wiser man, now. He's more aware of different courting methods.

He asks about your station, your current life, family, friends, etc .. in a seemingly disinterested tone. There's a bit of resignation but hidden constrain in his voice, everytime you mention a "close friend" of yours or a colleague you worked with "closely". But he hasn't been berating you the way he would have back then. His fingers slightly constantly strain, folded behind his back, trying desperately not to taper towards you – there's stray strands of hair on your face. Your headpiece is off centre. Your pen is slanting in your pocket. Your shoulders are too tense. Your eyebrows are furrowed. your eyes look tired. Have your lips always been chapped? They were fine back then.. hold on.

While you stutter out useless formalities and pleasantries, Veritas' eyes scan you over. Time has weathered you well, in his opinion. The thin line of his pressed lips dont quite indicate that. He sighs almost grimly, shutting you up in an instant. He offers you to accompany him and possibly consider joining the Intelligentsia Guild (is it not worth a shot trying? It may be foolish, but he's a tad too desperate when it comes to you). You timidly mumble out a refusal, the words barely leaving your mouth. He nods.

Catching up makes his heart squeeze and rush all over the place. Topics he once tried to teach you back then (by.. VERY unsuccessful methods,) seem to be elementary knowledge to you now. You work more efficiently, hold yourself in a better, more confident way, and you seem to be smoothsailing in your life. Granted, it's technically the bare minimum, but its been so long since he talked to you. The chirp in your voice, the chuckle you let out every now and then despite your nervousness around him, has his heart in his throat. He can't bring himself to try and even "set you straight" by giving you (unwarranted) advice or piddling your achievements, there's a soft smile he's duly hiding behind his scorning face.

He offers you again, if you are unsure about joining the Guild, and discreetly mentions it being filled with imbeciles regardless when you deny again, pulling another string of laughter out of you. Hmph, you weren't so joyful when he made those statements back in high school.

Granted,you're obviously still not quite sure about Veritas' new look. He's still got his infamous reputation as an extremely strict teacher, the oddball with an alabastor head and having worked with the IPC, it's not a pleasant image per se, but it's heaps better than his reputation back at school. You politely make a joke about it, and he groans, earning another cautious, light chuckle from you. He has become different. You prattle on about the length of his hair, his refinement of speech, the difference in how he holds himself now.. it does leave him melting a tad bit inside. You noticed it? Hm. Clever little thing.

Of course, goodbyes are seldom sweet. He does manage to pry out your contact information once again, before. If you don't budge,he finds another way regardless. Your network of colleagues aren't exactly as strong as you might have thought. He remembers this information carefully.

Like the old days, maybe he'll manage to keep slipping notes into your reports and files. Perhaps pull a few strings back in the old days to keep you in his class, he'll slowly knot and twist a few strings to bring and budge you over to his little workplace. Sooner or later, you'll end up in his home. He's sure of it.

And just like the old days, his little seatmate is by his side once again. Care to put up with him for a bit longer? Probably forever, in this case.

Steph and Bruce things-

Bruce once said- “when I die I want you to be the one who lowers me into the grave so you can let me down one last time” and dick gaped at him in horror, jason exploded into laughter, and steph glared at him before giving him a high five

Steph ends every argument with him with “i won this argument” even if she- especially if she very clearly did not

When she gets injured Bruce forces her to stay at the manor. Its the only time he is permitted to actually parent her because she is injured and needs to recover, but thats not to say she doesn't break into the cave and annoy him during work and force him to take her with him everywhere

Steph has all the codes and keys for everything in Wayne Manor/Batcave, but still breaks in everytime she comes over. It drives Bruce insane

When bruce gets injured shes one of the kids who sits at his side the whole time, especially if its because of her or its a big injury(dick is usually the other one)

When he gets sick she forces him to sit on the couch with her all day and folds him into a burrito blanket and eat junk food and slightly burnt soup with bread and watch trashy tv

When she gets sick bruce wraps her in a blanket burrito that she actually cannot escape from and takes her everywhere with him, just carting around his technically not daughter who is forced to be there and take the medicine he gives her and food and everything because shes wrapped in a straight jacket blanket

He picks her up from school and will have the most embarrassing songs ever playing, or will call out something awful like “is that the boy you have a shrine of in your room?”

Will lecture her in front of her friends

Steph changes all his contacts frequently so he always has to spend some time deciphering who it is based on what she called them, or he just starts every conversation with “who is this?”

She once forced him to come to a concert with her and buy matching t-shirts and merch and whenever shes feeling down he wears the shirt as like.. Solidarity and it makes her feel better

Every year for her birthday or christmas or something he sends her a bat symbol, either in purple or black or some other color and every year on his birthday she actually wears it for one day and lets him “claim” her as a bat

She was the first one to visit the League and gave everyone whiplash and made Batman actually break composure

Bruce will actively go on the patrol route she goes on and throw water or like snacks at her while screaming “Hydrate or diedrate!!!” and it is common to see a screaming Spoiler sprint away from Batman across rooftops

They have a snowball fight every year and she recruits every batkid to help

When shes on her period bruce “grounds her” from patrol and forces her to accept his mother henning just once a month. Steph doesn't actually mind. 

Steph gives him actually useful dating advice

Since shes not actually his daughter she lacks the baggage of being his child and tells him when hes messed up and he and Babs have like meetings with him to explain what hes done wrong with his kids and how to fix it/be better. Dick is also sometimes involved in these meetings when he is not the offended party

thats all i could think of rn but please feel free to add more 💗

something i cant not think about when listening to justice for tulsa

i know i know the socs picked most of the fights but still i cant help but feel for them because they're doing what they've been raised to do

and in justice for tulsa its mainly paul and cherry. and cherry is trying to get paul to feel for the greasers because everything wouldn't have happened if it weren't for them jumping pony and johnny

but i think paul was just grieving too because if he's randy's replacement then it means they were like good friends yk and he's trying to blame anyone but himself because he wouldn't be able to take it if it was his fault that his best friend died

and everytime i listen to the last part i hear paul's voice and i think about how pained it is and how they're fighting for their own against the people "to blame"

they feel that they NEEED revenge or something because they don't want to be the ones to lose most certainly after bob died too.

it's the whiplash from something like this too because they've always messed around before but never to that point and they really don't know how to go about it except for fighting

all because bobs parents couldnt say no

also if it were anyone else to be brought up in the socs circumstances they would end up the same way

(i need someone to write something soc-centric where we see their perspective but we also see character development pls and ty)

Punkflower ATSV story idea:

AU: where Hobie's canon event also involved losing his world's Miles morales who he was in a relationship with. (Using creative liberties of the multiverse to HC that 138 had its own miles morales b/c why not?)

When he meets, 1610 Miles he's very indifferent to him and kind of an asshole but still as helpful as in ATSV.

Because not only fuck the establishment but his Miles was an orphan and struggled and he'll be damned if he let this Miles go through the same thing if he can help it.

Hobie has been repressing his Miles' death for a while. He feels like he's replacing him with a new one so he tries to keep 1610 Miles at a distance.

Miles is getting whiplash because one minute Hobie's caring towards him and the next he's being a dick. Everytime Miles calls him out on it he gets the whole "don't believe in consistency" Schtik but miles eventually pulls him aside...

Miles: "Nah, man. Seriously what's your deal!? One would think I did something to you in a past life 🙄"

Hobie, swallowing over the lump in his throat:

"Dont know what you're on about mate"

Helping Miles defeat spot and call B.S on Miguel's canon fetish helps him find a sense of closure, until he realizes that he's developing feelings for Miles.

What are your thought on canon vs fanon type fics where they both meet

Or another example would be canon meeting genderswapped ver

Or canon meeting age swap/role swap ver

OR CANON MEETING RSA STUDENT VERSIONS where both side are disappointed in the other and there's a ton of rivalries just going on

Oh my god oh my god oh my god

Fanon vs Canon would be funny lmfao

If its the woobiwfied versions the entire cast is just DISGUSTED!! They are staring in horror whilst simultaneously retching at the sight. Oh my god if the other stutters!!! Bullying their alt version then and there they don't give a fuck

If its the yandere version of them they are just SO put off and annoyed by their presence and will try and strangle them lmao

Like floyd will try and punt his version because he'd just be so annoyed by their existance

Meanwhile Riddle and Ace are going through the 5 stages of grief rverytime they interact with their fanon versions

Vil is having an existential crisis about how the media perceives him

Kalim is lowkey annoyed by his version because it makes all those ugly feelings from Jamils overblit rise again

Cater is cringing so so so much at fanon him. Like, everytime he sees him he has to bite back a scream and just smile

Leona is so annoyed. What the actual fuck. He sleeps sure but he does so so so much more

Malleus is also really miffed. His one personality trair is not being lonely

Age swap/role swap is so interesting

A lot of the current dynamics we have u canon is simply based of their ages let's be honest.

If Epel was older he would not be dealing with Vil's disrespect of his accent and stuff.

Ruggie might struggle more if he was older and didn't have Leona's immediate protection

Riddle if he was tounger honestly wouldn't change much but he might get called out sooner or he'll just continue as is if he was older

Ace would either be more mischievous or malicious

Sebek might be a lot calmer since he wouldn't be in school fawning over Malleus

Malleus might actually be able to make it to events since he'll have Sebek lmao. And like he wouldn't be housewarden

A lot of these changes would change the fundamental structure of the characters interactions and dynamics and seeing them meet canon versions will cause some form of whiplash

Like let's say see have Vil and epel meets role/age swap. Like seeing how things could have happened must be humbling to an extent

RSA AND NRC RIVALRY LET'S GOOOOO

So I saw a bunch of RSA fanart before and I had a few ideas about RSA ace and NRC Ace swapping places and the chaos that would cause

But I can just imagine everyone cringing from their nice versions because it would just feel so SLIMY to them for some reason

I can just imagine them turning around and shuddering whilst making eye contact

They can't even have civil conversations because NRC keeps turning it into a fight because they think their RSA counterpart is trying to start a fight

[1unatica]

Everytime i open up the daredevil tag i get flashbanged by like 30 pictures of charlie cox shirtless, it happens every time idk why i keep getting surprised. Its. Hes just right there. I dont even have an issue with it i just need to do a quick scope around me to make sure nobody else also got whiplashed by 30 pictures of charlie cox being shirtless

[snooblesgoobles]

Joy and kim and and im glad i have a decent IDEA of kims design tho everytime i draw him they dont look exactly how i imagined, i drew this rando months ago in September yk the third pic and i was like "wow i like this face ! This should be kim" but i can never truly recreate it, kim likes dsbm used to be a big negative nancy, and wants to get better at guitar, only roughly creating strained melodies, Kims not the best person, desensitized and casually jokes abt fucked up things but hes not Joy levels of terrible, hes just misguided, and unlike joy he wants to harm themselves not others, hes very timid and soft spoken, actually p well spoken and smart, and waits for any opportunity to infodump on bands but never takes it out of embarrassment nor thinks people would understand, Joy bullies them but kim always or USED to think of that as good fun. Its whiplash that when kim got out of the psyche ward Joy is STILL the same person if not worse...

Woohoo! Strange Love is finally complete and I want to share some of my thoughts and feelings about the story and writing process. Strange Love is my Huskerdust/Valangel fic and it deals with heavy topics such as abuse, coercive control, homophobia, rape, and touches on the emotional and the mental impact on survivors of such things. Because these are heavy topics,  I will be sharing my thoughts beneath the “Keep Reading” button below for anyone who is interested. If these topics are too heavy for you, please protect your peace, and keep scrolling. 

Strange Love is my first Hazbin Hotel fanfic, and in many ways it shows. I was still learning a lot of the tropes, the fanon, and the general lore of Hazbin Hotel that wasn’t mentioned or was lightly touched upon in the series. However, Strange Love still holds a special place in my heart, partly because it was my first fic, but also because it gave me a place to hold a discussion about a topic that I was passionate about, but that I only had a handful of people who I could talk to about it in real life.

Everytime someone left a comment praising Val for being “so normal” yet still in character, I was elated, because that was what I wanted readers to experience. I wanted readers to see how someone like Val could be so appealing to Angel, and how normalized Val’s behavior either was or became to Angel. I wanted to show Val slowly chipping away at Angel, and how through praise, love, and affection, Val isolated Angel and turned Angel against his own support system, albeit, an also toxic and abusive support system. I wanted to show just how insidious this process could be, and how it left Angel not just questioning himself, but blaming himself for what had happened to him. 

And that was the other thing I hoped to capture too, which was the hurt, confusion, and guilt that Angel went through when he was with Val and after he believes Val is dead. That even when an abuser is gone, their hooks remain in their victims, and it is a long, slow, confusing, and painful process of removing every hook. While this story does end on a high note, the reality is that Angel’s recovery process is just beginning. It will be a long time before he is fully healed, but he’s at least taken his first steps by getting rid of Val permanently and believing that he (Angel) deserves better.  

Writing this story was in no way easy. Besides having to tackle such heavy topics and the mental/emotional load that comes with them, alternating between past and present timelines was its own challenge. One moment, I would write out a scene where Val is manipulating and degrading Angel, and the next I’d switch to Angel being comforted by Husk. It would be an emotional whiplash as I was writing. I wouldn’t change it, though. Showing the past and present in tandem was a nice way to highlight the differences and similarities between Angel’s relationship with Val versus his with Husk. 

Plus, it’s always good to have some lighter moments to break up the dark. 

While it is bittersweet to see this story end, I am happy that it has ended. When I started this fic, I really didn’t know if I would complete it, and there were many times when I told myself I should quit and delete it. Seeing it done now—warts and all—I can’t help but feel happy. 

And to everyone who read Strange Love, thank you for reading my story.

Bad

It would have felt bad

And probably murderous

It and Murderbot have so much in common <3

Lol this is so funny they're like stuck together in this hellish nightmare and they don't even like each other BUT they will protect each other and save one another

Sounds to me like the start of a beautiful friendship!

Okay but it worked no? Like. Murderbot can't be mad people resort to this when it works everytime

Haha

This would be hilarious if not for the fact that Murderbot IS upset and it's mean when it's upset :(

Amena is gonna push Murderbot until it breaks which... is maybe the thing it needs? Just by simply asking if it's okay

It doesn't take much huh

Ugh emotions

Lol Murderbot thinks so highly of ART but it's also like.... it's a homicidal maniac and also my bestest friend and I think that's beautiful

I totally get Amena the only thing I don't get is how Murderbot doesn't get it

Like. I think it genuinely doesn't understand how reassuring people find its presence

Again with the whiplash! So wholesome one sec then the next it rips my heart out

I wish they could have reassuring sarcastic banter and that they wouldn't be walking around ART'S corpse (more like comatose body) (I'm not in denial)

Murderbot continues to show its affection with murder

I think ART would get it
