#but nothing actaully happens

[monochromaticwriting]

This includes some bits and pieces from mine and @the-crow-binary roleplay. So this Mathias is not the OG Mathias.

I was going to do more for this, but I've run out of energy to complete it.

It had been three years since Mathias had infiltrated the Castle with the Brotherhood of Light, and had been spared, only to be taken as a war prize by Dracul. Dracul had been terrifying at first, and quite frankly, he was still a little scared of the strange vampire. But he had slowly gained the trust of the aloof Lord, enough to at least keep the Castle from harassing him at every moment. Mathias had mixed feelings over the vampire himself though. Could he even call Dracul a vampire? He seemed like he was so much more than any human could understand fully.

Staying within the permissions of Dracul and the entity within the Castle, he explored and sought out answers to his questions. Dracul had let him meet the Toymaker or, as Mathias fondly calls him, David. The old man was a godsend, giving Mathias a safe place that neither the Lord nor the entity frequents. David was even teaching him to read and use alchemy! Something he never had the privilege to learn before with the Brotherhood. But after three years of essentially being Dracul's pet, he was getting restless. He wanted to learn everything he could about Dracul and the Castle. The Toymaker could only give him so much information, but the man's memories weren't always reliable.

That's where he finds himself now. Walking through the Castle to try and find the library. The entity was always moving rooms around, and Dracul was always passive about it, claiming, "Its just testing you. It'll bring the room back soon." Mathias knew it wasn't testing him, it just didn't like him. Took too much of Dracul's time and attention away from it. He didn't mean to, but it just happened naturally. Dracul was an aloof man, but he never tried anything to actually harm him. Shy, quiet, and most certainly handsome... Mathias shook his head, trying to clear out his thoughts.

He needed to focus. Find the library and try to learn more of the history of this Castle. He did not need to think about Dracul's voice, or his dark hair, or those ruby eyes, or that broad body, or the dark hair that trailed down below his- "Stop!" He covers his face trying to get the images out of his mind. He wasn't going to get anywhere if he couldn't focus on what he came here for.

"Stop what?" Came a familiar accented voice. He uncovers his face and sees Dracul looking at him. For a man who was shorter than Mathias, his mere presence had a way of making one feel small.

"My Lord, I'm sor-"

"Mathias, I've told you time and again, that you don't have to call me that. Dracul is fine. And preferred."

"Right, my apologies, Dracul. I didn't mean to yell like that." Mathias apologized. Dracul's eyes soften. It was a minute change on his face. Small enough, that most wouldn't have seen it, but Mathias did. After three year of having this man as a regular companion, he learned the vampire was surprisingly easy to read.

"The Castle is changing the rooms around on you again, isn't it?" Dracul's voice was also softer now.

"Yes, it is." Mathias nodded, but noticed something, different about Dracul. He seemed... Tired. He knew the vampire lord didn't sleep. He always claimed he didn't need it, but looking at him now, Mathias wondered if that was actually true. "Dracul? Are you ok? You seem tired." Dracul just nods.

"Well," Mathias shocked himself with what his next words were, "I could... Accompany you for some rest after I find what I need from the library, if you wish." And Dracul looked tempted by this offer. Mathias was almost hopeful he'd take it.

Dracul finally nods. Mathias couldn't keep the smile off his face, especially when Dracul put his hand out, shyly gripping his. Dracul's hands were big and calloused, and Mathias wished he could feel those hands on other parts of him. The blush returns. Had it really been so long, that Mathias was now lusting over the one who took him as a prize? Maybe it's because Dracul reminded him so much of Trevor. He missed Trevor.

Lost in his thoughts, he didn't notice that Dracul's hand was no longer in his. Nor was the vampire anywhere to be seen. Looking around, Mathias was disappointed, but he had hopes that maybe Dracul was making sure the library was within his reach. Before he could continue his walk, he felt something on him shift. Slowly turning his head, he saw a rat in the fur of his cloak.

The rats in the Castle were strange creatures. They always seemed to follow him, and were far more intelligent than the rats outside. Mathias often wondered if they were part of the Castle itself. Another way to watch what goes on within it. This rat, however, was resting on him. Not that Mathias could blame it, the Castle was always freezing to him, he could only imagine how cold it must be to something so small. But it had a strange presence to it.

Looking closer, he noticed the rat was sleeping in his cloak. A rat. In his cloak. Asleep. He picks up the rat, who gives him an indignant squeak, and holds it in his hands. Red eyes, strangely shaped teeth. The strange presence.

"Dracul? Is.... Is this you?" He asks, feeling like he was going crazy. He had been confined to this Castle for three years, with only the Lord of the Castle, his pet sentient blood puddle, and all of his servants and warriors as companions, most of whom, don't even acknowledge him. Yet here he was, talking to a rat like it could speak to him. He set the rat back on his shoulder, where it reburied itself into the fur of his cloak. "I've officially lost it." He starts as he continues his journey to the library. "I've gone mad. I'm not in a Castle, filled with a strange vampire lord and his pet sentient blood puddle. I'm off galavanting in the woods with the fae, high off my ass from those mushrooms the cleric tried to feed me." He heard a snort from the rat. Oh, he was going absolutely mad in this place.

SILLY DRAGONS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm frustrated by my mom

[bamsara]

Speaking of TROD! I was really curious about the mushroom import/ abuse issue on cult grounds, what inspired that piece? It’s a good side plot im curious, will it play a bigger part later on? :)

Nothing really inspired it, but it is something that was planned for the later game of TROD, in the 'rescuing-shamura' arc, particularly because Menticide Mushrooms in-game are used to keep the faith but are also dangerous in making your cult sick (and also killing Sozo, as we all know, so it can be deadly as an overdose) and the time before rescuing Shamura will invovle a lot of the theme of dissention, since each doorway opening will leak out the domain's power.

So when I was drafting, it felt more appropriate to have it as a side plot that's kinda 'in-the-background' persay with it not being a huge focus or something pushed aside a lot, and then coming back to bite huge later on in the story rather than something that just Kinda Happens Suddenly.

I drafted / bullet pointed that story detail when I was still writing the first 3 chapters, so it's an early concept, but there's still some details I have to revise, particularly with Sozo since his body was invovled in a final way, but since I've started writing Trod we can actaully revive him, so I have a comic I drew for that as well.

Old VERY ROUGH concept scene doodles below:

Also, very, very very old draft below that may or may not be used in the future concerning Sozo, and a narilamb scene. Spoilers below:

hey best friend, love your work!! i was wondering if you could do jeremiah fisher x reader with dialogue 15. ‘’I know it’s hot, but please put some clothes on.’’ and prompt 3. beach house?? again your work is literally actaully so good i've read so much of it😭 love u🫶

It wouldn’t be a normal day if nothing embarrassing or awkward happened to you. 

You had been awake for only twenty minutes when you walked right into Jeremiah. It wouldn’t have been embarrassing if you hadn’t been coming out of the bathroom and only had a fluffy towel wrapped around your body.

The moment your eyes met, a mix of surprise and amusement painted his face, and you couldn't help but blush furiously. ‘’Oh, sorry,’’ you stammered, attempting to maintain some semblance of dignity while clutching the towel tightly around you. God, if it were to fall…

‘’Good morning,’’ Jeremiah said, holding back a hearty chuckle. 

You tightened your grip on your towel. ‘’Good morning,’’ you returned, flashing him a tight smile.

‘’I was about to go pick up some muffins from Rosie’s. Want to come?’’ 

You nodded at him. ‘’Yes! Do you think they still have blueberry ones at this hour? We tried getting some yesterday but they were all sold out…’’

‘’If we’re lucky,’’ Jeremiah said, knowing how quickly they sold. ‘’But first, I know it’s hot, but please put some clothes on.’’

‘’I would, but you’re blocking the way.’’

Listen. I love Jing Yuan x Dan Heng. Jingheng, hengjing, I adore them all.

And I like the narrative that most agree on that Jing Yuan adored Dan Feng and fell in love all over again when he meets Dan Heng and now loves Dan Heng for being him and not Dan Feng.

Or like Jing Yuan loves Dan Feng but doesn’t act on it since Dan Feng and Yingxing have their whole thing going on and then there’s the angst of Dan Heng thinking Jing Yuan only loves him due to Dan Feng but Jing Yuan having to reassure/prove he loves Dan Heng even with his past feelings for Dan Feng.

BUT-

I am a SUCKER for the idea that Jing Yuan had no romantic feelings at all for Dan Feng.

Like picture it-

The first thing Dan Heng sees is Jing Yuan freeing him and “saving” him. My boy is down bad. This man has been researching the Luofu and by extent Jing Yuan constantly while he was running across the universe.

And then he actaully starts learning about the HQC and the drama of that whole friend group- including Jing Yuan and Dan Feng

Dan Heng constantly hearing/having dreams that seem to imply that Jing Yuan and Dan Feng had something going on (throw in Yingxing, it’s a three-way situation, make it more funny- tragic ). Blade doesn’t help this situation and Dan Feng’s shadow just grows insanely more and more over Dan Heng. Jingliu says some comments during her life changing field trip with Yanqing and now the Jing Yuan and Dan Feng relationship spirals into the cloud knights rumor mill as well aka Sushang def makes some comments when she meets up with Dan Heng later.

Throw in the fanfiction they seem to have on the Luofu and Dan Heng feels like he has no chance at all.

BUT ON THE OTHER HAND-

Jing Yuan has no idea that this has been happening.

That man was a goner as soon as he laid eyes on Dan Heng at Scalesgorge waterscape.

Like, Jing Yuan x Dan Feng was nothing more than a nice friendship and maybe something bro like. Maybe if they had more time (and Yingxing didn’t come rizzing up DF) they could have developed romance. All the rumors and events are blatant misunderstandings that have snowballed and spiraled way out of control and Jing Yuan has been busy mourning his BFFs and trying to lead the Luofu for the last who knows how many years to take care of his romance rumor mill.

But Dan Heng?

Jing Yuan is GONE

Dan Heng fell first but damn did Jing Yuan fall harder.

My man saw Dan Heng IL form, had a gay panic, reeled it in to go kick Phantylia’s ass, got princess carried, was nursed to health, saw Dan Heng and Bailu bond and saved their asses, AND saw Dan Heng base form, and went “yup. That’s the one. I will die for him. I will adore him. There is no one else. No discussion or argument.”

He’s the only one who constantly calls him by his current name, outside of that tense moment in Scalesgorge, Dan Feng is rarely mentioned, he does everything to make Dan Heng comfortable, I AM A SUCKER FOR JING YUAN NUMBER 1 DAN HENG LOVER

whenever someone or Dan Heng tries to bring up Dan Feng and their past relationship Jing Yuan just goes “??? Dan Heng is amazing, why are we talking about Dan Feng?”

Like there’s nothing else. Dan Heng is his first and only and Jing Yuan has no idea how to handle ANY of it.

Idk where I’m going with this, there’s just something so insane to me about the idea of Jing Yuan truly knowing both Dan Feng and Dan Heng but ONLY falling in love with Dan Heng. Just giving more food to thought about the Vidyadhara reincarnation system, a more concrete form of just how different Dan Heng and Dan Feng are from each other that someone who knows both fell in love with only one of them.

I just want the most blatant confirmation for Dan Heng that Jing Yuan truly only sees him and loves him for him, not because of Dan Feng.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, is it obvious?

I think this has been marinating in my mind since that one side quest back in 1.3? Maybe 1.2? The one where the Vidyadhara guy is trying to woo the Xianzhou native girl and how he keeps falling in love with her in every life but she only liked the first few versions of him?

Anyways, something about that really got me thinking about long life, immortality, and how the whole point of reincarnation is that you’re a different person from the past and how the same person who’s known you each time will form different opinions and thoughts based on each new person.

Because that’s the whole point isn’t it? To be a whole new person?

I got way too philosophical for a post about me ranting about the complexities of Jing Yuan and Dan Heng falling in love

I am FERAL

(ALSO THE ANISHORT HNNNN WE WON BOIS)

[lost-in-lamentation]

Hello, hope you are fine?? I got a request...if you want?

GN MC is in the human realm where they get a tesx message saying "something weird is going on...look outside" they go outside and see what looks like shooting stars but its actaully angels falling to Earth. A lot and one falls directly in MC'S view which is Simeon, both their reaction

a/n: i’m doing great anon, i hope you’re doing fine as well!

request: a very familiar face lands right outside your front door.

content: decided not to elaborate on why this happened to simeon, instead just focused on you taking care of him.

warnings: there is blood and injuries. simeon is hurt badly, but not fatally.

simeon x gen!reader. hurt/comfort. word count: 1k.

“don’t forget to check outside later, they said there might be another meteor shower closer to midnight!

“will do, will do. i’ll see you at work on monday.” you waved at thin air, pretending your friend on the other side of the line could see you.

“g��night, MC!” they called before cutting the connection.

“good night indeed,” you hummed to yourself, placing your phone down on the coffee table in front of you. the idea that you might catch the meteor shower excited you, but you couldn’t shake the sinking feeling that sat in your gut. there had been rumours circulating after the last meteor shower; rumours that said it wasn’t just matter from space dropping to the ground. with a sigh, you turned your t.v. on, scrolling through your streaming services while occasionally throwing a glance out the window. eventually, with your show playing in the background, you fell asleep, a blanket haphazardly thrown across your legs. you would have spent the night there, if not for a loud crash waking you in the middle of the night.

gasping, you tried your best to scramble off the couch to the window, legs still tangled with the fleece blanket. when you saw nothing on your front lawn, you quickly turned around, heading to your backyard. panic took over when you saw some of your furniture knocked over, and fear grabbed the reins on your emotions when you saw something move in the far back corner next to your fence. your hands fumbled around in your pockets for your phone, before remembering you had left it in the living room. you sprinted for it, snatching it off the table before returning to the backyard. you inhaled sharply, gathering your courage just as you slid the door open and flicked your flashlight on. “who’s there?”

you heard a weak, yet very familiar laugh. “i wonder… if this is his last blessing to me-” the voice stopped to catch his breath. “or a cruel joke.”

shakily, you turned your flashlight towards the voice, internally begging to yourself that you were imagining things. when the light from your phone hit the figure, you reached towards him with your other hand, staggering forward until you could kneel in front of the (fallen) angel. “simeon… simeon, is it really you?” the normally pure white clothes that draped over his shoulders were soiled and bloody, ripping at the seams and falling away from his body. simeon’s dulled eyes met yours as he opened his mouth to speak, but he was cut off by a harsh cough that shook his core. “ah- okay, don’t talk yet,” you winced. “i’m bringing you inside.” with concerningly less effort than you thought you needed, you pulled simeon into your arms, hooking one arm underneath his legs and the other supporting his back. he groaned when you started taking steps, head falling onto your shoulder while you murmured apologies from above him.

as gently as you could, you laid simeon down in your bathtub, caressing his face with a thumb before running away to get your first aid kit. you’d barely been gone 30 seconds, but by the time you returned, simeon was already passed out; most likely from his injuries, you assumed. you bit your lip nervously, running some towels underneath the tap to dampen them before sitting on the edge of the tub and leaning down to clean the blood off the angel. simeon stirred at the feeling, grimacing as his eyes fluttered open to look at you.

“thank you,” simeon breathed out, shifting his position so he could lean his head against your leg instead of the wall.

you swallowed a sigh, leaning back to swap your towel with a fresh one. “no need for thanks,” you replied, one hand carding through his hair while the other continued to wipe off the red stains on his arm. “i have to clean your other arm, simeon.” he hummed in disappointment, but tilted away from you so you could reach the arm closest to you. as soon as he felt your hands leave his shoulder, he fell back towards you, head landing on your thigh. you knew he was too tired to lift his head up properly, but you couldn’t help the giggle that escaped you when you saw his now peaceful expression. “you’re making it very difficult to get you fixed up,” you carried on, carefully peeling off the bloodstained clothes that clung to simeon’s skin.

“i’m sorry, you’re just so warm,” simeon murmured before pulling away.

“that’s the blood loss speaking,” you replied, humoured. after you finished bandaging his arms and torso, you shifted your attention to his legs, which somehow had managed to avoid sustaining damage during his fall. “why’d you fall, simeon?” you asked, quiet yet abrupt. his half lidded eyes gazed into yours, the usual light blue shine muted.

“let’s save that for another time.” simeon turned to face you, pushing himself up with what little strength he had left. “i think we should both get some rest.” he spoke quietly, voice trembling just as badly as his legs.

quickly, you shot up from your spot on the tub ledge, wrapping an arm around his waist to hold him steady. “be careful,” you chided, ready to scold him, but you stopped when you felt his hand suddenly grip onto yours. you sighed for the millionth time that night, helping him step out of the tub. “come on.” slowly, you guided simeon to your bedroom, having him lay down before pulling the covers over his shaking figure. “i’ll be in the living room if you need me, okay? just shout-”

“MC,” simeon whispered, a hand shooting out from under the covers to grab your wrist. “please don’t abandon me,” he pleaded, tears collecting in his eyes before they scattered across his face like stars.

your jaw quivered with sadness, hearing the desperation in his voice. you smiled sadly at him, nodding before you pulled the covers back, climbing onto the bed and into the spot next to simeon. “i won’t abandon you. ever.” you cradled him close, avoiding the open scars on his body as best you could.

“do you promise?” he asked, wobbly breaths accompanying the question.

you had never heard simeon sound so lost; so betrayed. “i promise,” you assured him, bringing his face to your chest. you said nothing more as he cried himself to sleep, wondering if heaven was really worth it, if they refused to claim even the purest soul you had ever known.

a/n: i always hate august because it always ends up being my busiest month of the year. aka i'm dying. please wish dear author some good luck as she bakes multiple wedding cakes later this week.

[redlollygag]

so im gonna be autistic in your inbox 😁😁😁 < face of someone mentally unwell

SO the biggest appeal of dabihawks is ofc the enemies to lovers trope, first lets look at canon:

theyre enemies plain and simple, they hate each other, its a beautiful show to watch of them absolutely disgusted by the other but forced to interact [ IF ONLY THEY GOT MORE FUCKING SCREENTIME TOGETHER JESUS CHRIST ] anyways its the angst potential, hawks dirtying his hands just to get into the league only to then betray the entire league </3 hawks dirtying his hands just for the sake of the mission for the sake of dabi letting him in because that WAS his only contact so hes the one hes "closest too" dabi the evil motherfuck toying with hawks, making him do all the things he hates and knowing what hawks is truely doing. they hate each other in canon plain and simple they dont care if neither one dies or not. hawks even STILL views endeavor as an equal even after all hes done (whether or not you think its valid is up to you i think that hawks needs a LITTLE MORE TIME AND SPACE to rethink the whole "yeah no enjis cool now hes alright :D" shtick.... personally i hate it i just want him to be a little more..... EYES OPEN to how fucked up endeavor did things even if hes trying to do better now like ?????) canon tropes that could fit are like their divorce, unhealthy co dependency, there was only one bed, acciental first kiss, drunk sex, fuck buddies, rarepair, the whole hero vs villain thing, height difference, flirty and the flustered, oh fuck theyre BOTH messed up, loud and quiet ETC ETC

now heres where the dots connect though through fandom genius. now when dabis first introduced hes blue and emo and firey and dramatic (theatre kid) mentally unwell, tired yet manic, daddy issues supreme, body horror circus party, the whole palooza. we ALL been known, his daddys a top hero who made him a top villain. and now hawks, who was an enigma at first, man too fast for his own good, red, arrogant, laidback, yet serious and calculating, heart of gold underneath all of that dirty work with a like for trashy preppy outfits. at first it was just the enemies to lovers, dabi hates endeavor and heroes, hawks admires him to the sun and is one of the best heros... AND THEN WE GET HAWKS BACK STORY. hawks. hero. raised by a villain. if the red and blue, sun and moon, emo/goth and jock, FLAME AND FEATHERS, if those parallels werent enough the father issues sure will! dabi, hero father made him a villain, hawks, villain father made him a hero. the amount of parallels these two have was fuel for the growing fire.

FIRE IN WHICH IT WAS FANON. fanon dabihawks is BEAUTIFUL. the best and probably only light dabihawks will ever shine in 😀😀😀 < gripping horikoshis neck even thought nothing will happen but angst for these two. slightly shifted canon compliant with some queer writing and spicing up the characters a SMIDGE, making them more fit to how they ACTAULLY ARE (in my very (not) humble opinion horikoshi you dont know your own characters like we do) all of that is the mountain of fanfic tropes. we already have enemies to lovers but add a little bit of that battle for dominance play and sexual tension, heavy flirting and fuck buddies OOO BOY. they play and they bite and hawks is number one pretty boy and charms his way past dabi "probably hasnt been flirted with in his life," OR dabi being the brat and attention seeker he is and pushing hawks buttons before dabi gets put in his place. hawks turned genuine lov member because then thats where he sees the TRUTH. or hawks still killing jin but REGRETS IT TO THE MAX and dabi finds him a little after and hawks begging for forgiveness. the league was his only true family but hes been a hero under the commission for so long that killing him was second nature until he realizes. rehabilitation after the war and dabi being captured and hawks still visiting him wherever dabis being held. if you make them even a LITTLE BIT GAY it literally makes things more tragic than just "lets hate each other even though we're walking parallels"

one very popular and loved aspect is red tailed hawks avian hawks and not just his fierce wings. THIS ADDS TO THE MOUNTAIN. youve got a multitude of bird facts like torpor, nesting, cloacas if youre into that, preening, MATING HABITS. hawks being a spy to the league only to see how open they are to their members quirks. spinner and his lizardness needing warmth and insects and shedding and togas fascination and need for blood ( not quirk reasons shes mentally ill but there are healthy ways to get blood so) hawks seeing the league being accepting open AND welcoming to when we dont see ANY OF THAT in his hero work??? especially with dabis inside knowledge of how shit the hero system is with quirk discrimination??? youve got so much to work with here JUST from the aspect of making hawks a hawk mutant. he likes how shiny dabi is with his staples and piercings, he loves the natural warmth coming from him (even if dabis skin is cold), hawks lowkey loving the smell of blood from dabis scars (bird of prey) dabi helping hawks be open to the more avian side of him, he imprints on him and dabi becomes mate in hawks mind, IN TURN hawks showing dabi that even the most shittiest of origins, you can still do good, hawks knowing full well that quirks sucks (molting season, talon clipping, wing care, the overstimulation of senses like sounds hawks has become numb to) and he coaxs that little burning fire thats still in dabi, that he can still do good (dabi said that killing innocent people drove him mad in a negative way so he doesnt enjoy it) two broken souls from quirk discrimination finding solace even with all the shit hero AND villain society treat them. this leads to, along with those above, hurt comfort, slow burn, mutual healing, mutual pining, sunshine x grump, girlboss and malewife, overly affectionate x touch adverse, old married couple, sacrifices too much x sacrifices too little, romantic virgin x romantic confident, annoyed x annoying, gets into fights x patches them up, OBLIVIOUSNESS TO THE MAX, idiots in love, domestic husbands ETC ETC (and the more kinky spicy aspects when it comes to bird genes and a fire quirk)

what makes them even JUCIER is if you make the commission EVIL. EXACTLY WHAT DABI HATES AND DESPISES. another common trope is to make hawks be lowkey abused by the commission hence the whole child soldier thing but hawks has been living with then his whole life so its like, fine for him. dabi being his savior, dabi showing him the league can be his true family, dabi, a villain, being hawkss hero. hawks, who would get his hands dirty just for the sake of justice, shows dabi true heroes are still alive. hawks being an avian mutant adds to the juice because if it was just hawks with fierce wings well you could paint it as just the child soldier BUT WITH THE HETEROMORPH youve got commission being absolute JERKS and forcing hawks to mask his avian-ness, forced to endure people touching his wings left and right, forced to not perch, forced to have them preen his feathers in the way that society views as "perfect," clipping his talons, making him live in a boring ass apartment because "hawks heroes dont care about sentiments, you have to be presentable and collecting 'shiny things' isnt herolike," the league being the EPITOME of quirk freedom, hawks finding solace in the league because hes actually able to be himself and being a heteromorph isnt SHOULDNT be bad, dabi being able to polish his old big brother instincts and take care of hawks nurse him back to help and free him from his bird cage.

SPEAKING OF BIRD CAGES, another beautiful fanon interpretation is DABI HIMSELF BEING A PART OF THE LEAGUE BEFORE HIS REBIRTH. OW. youve got friends to lovers and all the fluff that comes with it (as much as it is being in the commission) dabi and hawks growing up together in the commission only for endeavor to pull dabi out and hawks loses his one true best friend :[ dabi and hawks not knowing how to socialize with other kids but between dabis temper yet caringness and hawks being shy yet a determined bastard, they click LOVINGLY. they bond over shitty fathers (hawks not knowing the extent to his idol OR you can change it up and have hawks despise endeavor secretly but the commission knows hes adored endeavor so he has to suck up the urge to MAIM and KILL the flaming bag of shit because at the time endeavor aint "changing" and he acts EXACTLY like hawkss birth father.) hawks imprinting on dabi his first real friend, taking care of each other through the commissions pains and abuse, sacrificing themselves in order for the other to not be punished. MAJOR ANGST WHEN IT COMES TO DABIS DEATH and hawks loses his spark and throws himself into training to distract the howling pain of his bird side and instincts as he lost a flock member (and potential mate), ONLY TO FIND DABI ALIVE YEARS LATER. the angst of reconciliation to see your love turn yo the darkest sides (dabi being a villain and hawks being a hero both of who they respectively hate) the angst of dabi knowing that without him the commission successfully brainwashed hawks to the point of betrayal on their side and hawks knowing his old beloved is now on the side in which he has to take down and kill (his old beloved truely did die if this is the path dabi went to) THE FRIENDS TO LOVERS TO STRANGERS TO ENEMIES AND BACK TO LOVERS. IM GONE O-(-( ORZ. youve successfully wounded me.

the amount of aus/canon divergent situations you can put these two from those three things TOGETHER or SEPARATE/SOLO, soulmates, quirk accident, princess carry, found family, exes to lovers, role reversal, fantasy au, royal au, cyberpunk au, dystopian, apocalypse, sickfic, honeypot turned non sexual intimacy, highschool au, civilians au, quirk swap, body swap, arranged marriage, actual genuine married couple, kindergarten au, amnesia fics, time travel, time travel fix it fics, space au, star wars au, pirates and mermaids, and the wonderful beautiful amount of crack/crack treated seriously is UDGODLY. hawks pranking endeavor, the lov and hawks playing video games, trophy wife dabi, watching disney movies, coming out at the worse times, "HAWKS/DABI WDYM YOUR FUCKING A VILLAIN/HERO," one or more of the todorokis (minus endeavor) being in the league and dabi hating it but hawks loves it (adores shouto, loves and is terrified of fuyumi, gets along w natsuo, DABI YOUR MOM IS A FALLEN ANGEL), dabis mom being in the league and is a better mom in canon and dabis like what the shit or this is my mom fuckers touch her and your burnt and hawks is like but what about affectionate touching (hugs, headbumps etc), hawks learning to build a pillow fort and experience actual good childhoos activities, dabi walking in on hawks (and maybe spinner and toga) indulging in his avian-ness for the first time, dabi cooking for hawks, hawkss nesting habits, gift giving

am i autistic about dabihawks or am i AUTISTIC about DABIHAWKS

if you read this hold this (jesus /AFFECTIONATE I WROTE A LOT.) thank you and hoping to convert you :D

ANON you fucking FEASTED WITH THIS ONE OH MY GOD!!!! You delivered on your promise and brought over the whole damn MEAL!!

(I love the essay thank you so so much for taking time to pour out your thoughts on this ship!!! Ngl I don’t give Dabi enough credit as a character and maybe this ship is one way to kinda explore that and dammit if I am not more intrigued by them than anything else)

[kiwibirb1]

Okay here to create an entire au based on just one song lyric but:

"What if the protagonists just died in the first scene?"

Anne did NOT survive that first week. But the guardian is like "shit didnt think this far ahead ummm ghost?" So Anne is this visible but *mostly intanglibe spirit. she panics at first bc "OMF I DIED" but gets used to it. shes visible, can still interact with people. she has cool ghost powers now. aint all that bad, aint it?

*If she focuses reallyyyyy hard than she can get like. half an hour of tangibleness. MAX

anyway now to over exlpain stuff as it pops into my head but ill put it under the cut dont worry. got the basic stuff anyway alwaredy

So: Reunion. Anne of the year happens and stuff and Toadie is like "some one says their a friend" yada yada yada stuff so anne is still ghost when she goes up to sasha. BUT she has learned that its best to pretend to be alive at least when approaching someone so she float walks up (looks like shes walking but is actaully floating) and then realizes its sasha and goes "Oh shit" and tangibles herself just before the hug. during the ride she lets herself go untangible but still trys to keep herself not see through so sasha doesnt know whats up. anyway while theyre at toad tower she tangibles but is really fucking tired most of the time. fight happens and anne is holding on with everything shes got. except she can feel herself losing focus. Sasha says the whole 'better off without me" line but right before she can let herself go Anne goes intangible again so sasha drops but she knows she was still holding on and she could feel anne so what happened? sasha has a lot of questions. Anne has extra grief bc she was the one who dropped sash. yeah...

Marcy at the gates! Anne is fully prepared to float over the wall and stuff but doesnt bc fam is in danger and oh hey theyre saved and thats a weird looking newt let me float over and help them but- oh. that is a human. who has just seen me be very much not alive. shit.

Anne pretends that nothing happened for a bit and goes tangible and all that while theyre doing the barbirant quest thing. Marcy is like "well, since she's not mentioning it, I must have imagined it!" Until that one bit where Marcy like shoves Anne out of the way. And just goes straight through her. Both girls eyes widen as they process what just happened but Anne takes control and is like "I'LL EXPLAIN LATER LETS FOCUS ON THE FIGHT RN" so yada yada yada thing happens except Anne kinda hides ghostyness a little less bc the secret is already out, not much you can do now. After fight she explains and marcy is broken. She brought her best friend here and now shes dead. She killed her best friend. Breaks so hard in fact that she spills the secret to Anne who is like "what. i- i need time to think" so they dont talk for multiple days besides the king andrias meeting**. Anne eventually lets Marcy explain why and friendship is very strained but Anne learns to move on. Not forgive, not yet, maybe not even ever, but move on. It happened, and all she can do now is deal with the consequences.

**CORE LORE HEHEHE. So actaully gonna slightly change some core lore and shit. Anne takes one look at the crown and it like "that thing is evil and I dont know why" bc she has some extra spirit senses now. She tries to focus in on it and her eyes flash blue for a second and she catches a glimpse of thousands of orange spirits, all with to many eyes, floating around the crown and whispering in Andrias's ears. She cant see them again, but is very suspicious of Andrias now. Thankfully, the core didn't see her. Or did it?

One little spirit, mostly ignored by the rest, saw her looking. For some reason, it doesn't feel compelled to tell the rest of the hivemind. It knows they wont look in it's mind, it has long lost all usefullness, only around because it was forgotten. It itself can't connect with the rest, and has no reason to want to. It follows Anne, leaving the core behind. It watches, silent. Until one day, Anne catches a glimpse of it following her. She doesnt day anything until she is alone. She calls out, "I know you're there." It is surprised, but becomes visible to her. (only her. thats important. but yeah the core ghosts have more control over theyre visiblity and shit.) She is surprised. It seems... so small. "Who are you?" It seems to think. It does not know. It's name has long faded from memory. It tells her so, and she softens just a bit more. "What are you?" It perks up. This it knows the answer to! It tells her of the Core, the collection of Amphibia's greatest minds. She understands why she dislikes the crown now, and what she saw that day. But she also knows that this little fellow wont hurt her.

Anne has a little ghost buddy now. She names it Clementine. (It's faintly orange, just like all the other Core ghosts, but slightly less as it is nearly entirely removed from the hivemind.)

how the the dteam feel in this hc if you actaully started dating foolish or punz

Hallo, thanks for requesting ^^

That's such a genius idea, oh lord here we go-

Hope you enjoy <3

Dream Team reacts to you dating Foolish

Click here before requesting, please ^^

Reader: GN - They/Them

Part I

You all grouped up in a discord call like every night

Playing a bit of Minecraft, chatting, fighting, flirting, the usual stuff you four did

By the end of the call you felt comfortable and ready to break the news to your best friends

"Oh btw, me and Foolish are dating" you mumbled out so casually, catching the three by surprise

There was a small pause, which made you nervous, but they ended up all congratulating you

As soon as you left the call, the happy façade was broken down

Sapnap was the first one to break into a silent sob that escaped his lips. Out of the three he was the most vulnerable, so it didn't surprise the two that he was crying after a lost crush

George tried his best to keep silent and help Sapnpa grief, but his glossy eyes and quivering lips just made the mood even more sad for the two

Dream kept everything in, he was to busy supporting the other two to acknowledge his own feelings. But once the call ended he couldn't help but let down some tears of his own

The three had went m.i.a. from you for an entire week. Just to recollect themselves and come to terms with reality

In this week, Sapnap had barged into Dreams room many times for support, George called Sapnap almost daily and Dream would do the same to George. Sometimes the "partners" switched

They all went though different 5 stages of grief

George was in denial for the first few days, Sapnap was angry at the idea of Foolish getting to you first while Dream had to stop himself from texting you and trying to bargain with your decision

Half way though they got a bit depressed. The thought of not being able to be the one for you had led them to feel like it was the end of the world

But by the end of the week they had all accepted the relationship. You seemed pretty happy posting about your relationship with Foolish and the man seemed to treat you well.

In the end they just wanted to see you happy, wether that'd be with them or not

After the m.i.a. week you grouped up again, acting like nothing happened and like the feelings were never there

But this whole "relaying on eachother" experience had gotten the trio to be closer then ever

[pastriibunz]

there are non-emergency lines? And it’s happened twice?!?? It’s almost certainly not nothing. And even if it is, BETTER SAFE THEN SORRY. also, you don’t seem attention seeking. I would incourge you to call a non emergency line, or, if you know someone who can drive you, drive to the ER.

im sorry I literally cany im not in a good olaxe to do so

I’ll tell my dad when he comes hime , he might be ebettertab my mom and like actaully. Listen to me when I say mi body hits 😭😭😭

im really sorry guys if i could i definitely wouflf

[takeyourheart]

au where akechi doesnt fucking die

hear me out ok. ok

so. shido engine room. coggoro's got the gun pointed at akechi. akechi gets up and points gun at the pt. joker points his gun back. but then joker shoots coggoro and then akechi shoots the button and then slides under the door as it closes (i dont actually remember off the top of my head if it closes from the top or bottom but Just Go Along With It)

akechi is a free man now. he can do whatever he wants without trying to undermine his dad. except he spent so long trying to do that that he forgot how to be a person (classic identity crisis)

and then the fuckig holy grail thing happens and akechi tags along because he literally has nothing better to do he quit being a detective because he fucking hated the job or something like that and then when the holy grail fuses mementos and reality all the pt disappear except akechi because the public doesnt see him as a pt and hes like What The Fuck

and then akiren fucking kills god with satan and yay. happy ending! except then maruki fucking happens and i have no idea how it would change with akechi being alive. maybe his mom is actaully alive now and akechi is like FUCK. god DAMN you maruki. bitch ass

which begs the question of whether or not akechi has to "wake up" to true reality like the others since he didnt have to in canon p5r but now hes not dead so like. hm

this isnt shuake bait i promise

also no im not making it so the pt automatically forgive him for bein a bitch ass mothafuka it wouldnt be funny. i wanna see haru being the most passive aggressive threatening bitch ever and akechi is fully aware she Could just kill him. also futaba.

DCRC Week 7. I'm so close

I'm so close to catching up. time for an earthquake! I know that from puffy's various jokes about it something happens with the west coast in this one hoo boy calisota is gonna be in danger tonight! I'm so close to catching up. So inanely close. oh wiat hold on lemme get in club pen.guin again

ALRIGHT okay interesting first panel. i like the colors here and the sound effects. sorry these panels are so bright paperinik's style...

my favorite standard font title replacement so far i think

i like how the money symbol is there so we can tell its mcduck enterprises

im so mad i love how he's ploping the bear into the coffee. hot chocolate. something like that

the little crackers surrounding the coffee mug as theres a rainy scene in the background. the color contrast... hi one you look so silly today

i love how uno's just floating today usually they try to show his little chord or him attached to something but he's so silly

im so mad. get uno's ass donald

hes so silly though... the way donald rattles off all the things and uno's just like shut up please. he thinks he's onto something btu he's literally onto nothing

im so mad. do you know how to ride a bicycle this is not that

divorce (they argued for two seconds)

hello girl. i dont know who you are but your design is everything to me

im so mad shoutout to when comics do this. more heroes should be federal criminals and evade taxes. i love the way he's like Oh Fuck! I'm a Criminal Now! glad the government gets on pk's bad side too RIGHT after the time police nonetheless

she... i might have her job someday. imean not LITERALLY like i dont wanna go into security but i do want to work in an environmental department. i love how uno is just really into snooping on the fbi and honestly who wouldn't be Donald. be peer pressured into getting yourself into more trouble with the govenrment come onnn

physical antiviruses... ugh code wall so cool im. the way they're battling on the us fbi logo

IM SO MAD i actaully laughed at them getting angus fangus. if he blamed this on the duck avenger randomly he would be right and he could convince them so this could have been the worst play ever but its also the most cathartic

hello mary ann flagstarr...

cog donald's little red eyes... the digital and the real are blurring for a moment but i guess the fbi's security system is so complicated it has. air vents. or he's in the real fbi nevermind

holy shit guys its MEEEEEEEE yeah i never told you guys i was in pk the whole time. its insane

I LOVE HOW HES JUST LIKE. BEATING UP FEDERAL AGENTS NOW AND IT SLIKE OKAY things are only going to get worse im . this is a you call yourself a superhero moment but also the government is the government so!

odnald duck really did think nobody would show up at 3am

hes so fucking smug

ah the pangea project! surely that doesn't mean good things for calisota! ah okay they're not painting the whole government as evil just this guy specifically that makes a little more sense for a disney comic

she's so sad... ooh this is gonna be a ba.xter stockman situation isnt it (SORRY i have seen 1 episode of 2003 and it was. the banned one in call with everyone). she's just like oh my god you're fucking dying and he's like my plan... you must do it... it was my wife's definitely

WHAAAAAAAAT NOOOOOO... HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN IN MY DONALD DUCK STORY? (sarcastic)

sorry this was like the one thing i knew about this comic beforehand. other than like. uno existed. sarcasm aside i do love this panel

i like they Try to give a reason as to why the govenrment is doing this "out of good will" despite the evil laughs and such as like. a climate change backup--land we haven't messed up yet. but like this should be a last resort and not an immediately executed plan and i get you cant evacuate the whole west coast but california has so much of what the us is known for the us would be stupid to let those countless tourism dollars go to waste--especially when new land may not immediately go to claim of the us and Wars might happen over it. sorry im not nitpicking or anything i'm just saying my thoughts. like st canard is a massive city and so is duckburg and--sorry

and uno is sad because he doesnt know whether the sacrifice is worth it which. alright! yeah! but everything's not gonna be peachy keen just because we have some new land to work with. its got to grow naturally and as its arisen from the sea unless its all completely man-bulldozed its going to be rock, dead coral, and lichen for a while before anything grows naturally. the thought process of a scientist who can see everyone as getting in the way, climate change disaster as inevitable unless there are serious changes in human behavior or just straight up more resources and time (and who HATES calisota because he lives there), sure. believable enough for a silly comic like this

IM SO MAD AND THEN IT JUST CUTS TO

HIS STUPID PLANE its beautiful.

PLEASE dont kill of mary ann i love her already

im so glad she doesnt shoot either of them right away like its a massive ??? situation. you cant shoot donald duck

uno feels so bad for dipping for a second for being unsure :(((( poor guy...

this ending panel with the seagull is so good but oh. hohoh. are we gonna get more uno lore next issue ANYWAY yeah! good comic i see why this one is a lot of people's favorites. im glad im having fun reading paperinik again... that sure was a terremoto and boy oh boy... the west coast DIDNT sink? thanks to donald duck? wow. incredible.

Ep 5. Bingo bingo bingo!

my set up for this.

ON TO THE SHOW! (just came off a horror movie with a weird ass ending)

So. Time has passed. Not by much everyone seems to have a watch and be looking at it. Rak working in the cleanest setting. As a writer myself, cant relate. Also not me pausing for a whole ass 10 minutes just to see what was on his shelf.

Then we have the confusing menus. Why? "Lady in a blanket?" They are riddiculous Mahasamut, dont you dare feel sorry. But the development seems to be back. Rak completely ready to defend Mahasamut with the waiter. OH MY DAYS THE SMALLEST BLOODY PORTION!

EMPTY BOXES! THOSE ARE EMPTY FOOD BOXES! AT LEAST ADD ROCKS TO GIVE IT SOME WEIGHT! Vie gives me vibes of another Mame character I will not speak of.

Now I;m judging their groceries. He got carrots - three packets. If it were me, i'd get them by the kilo. Organic my ass. Go to the flee market Mahasamut and get a proper price. BINGO! Mahasamut read Tongrak's novel! 18:30. Oh good cabbage. it's small. got some onions. OI get him the snacs! He needs his chocolate. If that were me, that trolley would barely last a week and a half. BINGO! Joking about age difference!

Oh the irony. Nothing like breaking the fourth wall... oh wow. having the secretary completely go at the main character of the story. Wow. Mame you went there. Mildly impressed.

And having Mook rest. That was needed. NIOOOOOO DONT DONT FUKCING DONT KISS HER WHILE SHE IS ASLEEP OH THANK HEAVENS! Bingo. Miscommunication 27:58 when mook has no clue that Vie is actaully into her. I'm counting that. Aya's acting on that part. That split second show of conflict in her eyes. That was good.

who the fuck are you... oh. ok.

HOOOOOOOOOO!!

Rak is angry awww. I love Mahasamut reacting in the background.

But im betting that is his step sister. she dares bring up his mother. oh burn her Rak. Burn her. Oh yeah. Def the step-bish.

I like how they trust Peat's acting in this. The shaky camera when they first enter. Then the steady still shot of him entering his room. I love how they made Mahasamut still stubborn but more willing to relent to Rak's breakdowns. He can sense that he secretly needs someone around but he still obeys because consent still matters (this is the bare minimum Mame). Also BINGO! heartbreak aka Peat cries so beautifully.

crying while eating. Been there bro. (did not expect that to sting)

BINGO!!! Sugar daddy shopping! HAHAHA! 44:00 Poor guy. He's just trying to serve a customer. Have I encountered this at the shop I work at? Yes. OHHHHH Mahasamut actually said sugar daddy. Do i get a bonus point? i hope there are no cameras. AhAHAHA noooooooo! NOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO have some decorum?! Yay interuption.

Same Mahasamut.

think this series is half promo for Mame's other works.

This was better than last week's ep, i think. Nothing spectacuar happens in next week's apart from a set up for Love Sand. Which i'm pretty sure they recasted from THAT show. That show is my Scottish play.

[countessofravenclaw]

So, it is actaully a quite a weird thing that I haven't done this before, but I finally got around to writing the conversation that Gastón and Nina had over the phone in S3E59. Enjoy.

“Gastón?”

“Hey ... I, I don’t know if I should be doing this, but…” the voice came from the phone. “After everything, you don’t have to do this, I can hang up if you don't want to hear from me.”

“No… It’s fine,” Nina had gotten quite caught quite off guard, but everything from her expressions to the body language had changed. The happiness was practically radiating from her eyes.

“Okay, well,” A nervous laugh came from the phone, “but I just wanted to see how you are. It’s—It’s been a while.”

“It, it has.” Nina nodded. “Uhm, I’m doing well. You?”

“That’s good to hear. I’m doing fine, keeping busy, all that stuff. How’s Roller…Matteo’s been telling me about the festival.”

“Yes, we’re training for it a lot.” 

“We? You’re doing it too?”

“Yeah, I thought I might. Luna has been training me but…”

“But what?”

“I still feel like I’m gonna trip on my own feet.” Nina said a little bit nervously.

“That won’t happen. You’ve come a long way on the rink. Me if anyone knows how far you have come. Trust me.”

“Well, thank you,” Nina blushed.

“But uhm,” There had been a brief silence between them before Gastón had continued. Now he sounded nervous. “You truly are doing okay…after you know…”

“I guess well as I can…”

“Nina, look, I’m really sorry—”

“You don’t need to apologize.”

“I want to.” Gastón continued, “It was a bit fast…but it's been a while now, and uhm … Have you—have you met anyone?” 

Silence.

“Nina?” Gastón’s voice came out of the phone a little bit concerned. “You there?”

“Yes, yes, I’m here.” Nina seemed to snap back into the moment. 

“Is something wrong?”

“No, no, nothing’s wrong.” 

“You sure about that? You’re acting weirdly.”

“I am?”

“I don’t need to see you to tell you that you’re nervous.” Gastón's voice faltered smally. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing is wrong…” Nina swallowed, “Just, that… Uh, you asked if I had met anyone and… the answer… it is, it’s yes. I mean I have, a little bit. His, his name is…Eric. The rink assistant.”

“Oh.” Gastón’s voice came from the other end. 

“I’m sorr—”

“Why are you apologizing?”

“I thought…” Nina continued. She looked like she was about to cry. 

“Thought what?” There was another falter in Gastón’s voice again, “I’m glad you’re doing well and… I’m happy for you. This is really great. You deserve to be happy and all I want for you is your happiness. You know that.”

“I do.” Nina smiled smally, but that smile quickly disappeared off her face. She looked like she wanted to say something more but decided not to.

“Well, if there is nothing else. I’ll leave you be. I’m just glad we’re able to talk, since we’re friends.”

This time Nina was about to open her mouth, but the call disconnected before she was able to. “Yeah, friends.”
