#but who can blame him

[luv-x-liv]

i need a fic where sirius, remus, and lily are part of a band, with sirius being the lead singer (and guitarist on occasion), remus is the electric guitarist/bassist (gonna be honest guys i do not know the difference 🙏💀), and lily is on the keyboard, and everybody ships wolfstar (as they should) including lily, and there's this one song where remus does a solo, so like he's just letting every emotion he's ever felt out onto that poor instrument and sirius is like "omg bf material" stares at him like he's the only person in the room, and forgets when he has to start singing again and yeah, i didn't really think it through that much tbh

Small sneak preview of Amalgamate chapter 21

Sorry it's been taking so long for me to start sharing previews. I've been super picky about editing, and so far everything I've written for chapter 21 looks reeeaaally rough. But I still want to give you all the occasional glimpse into the upcoming chapter, so here's a teeny, tiny snippet. I'll put it under the cut for those of you who don't like to see previews :)

As always, I end up sharing something that looks so much worse than necessary without context lmao. Maybe I'll share a lighthearted preview next time to balance things out ^^

feel free to ignore this if it’s been asked before, but I’d love to read a tiny Dean’s POV from The Constant Vow <3

In Cedar Rapids, Dean comes out of the bathroom to find Sam passed out facedown on the bed. Dean holds onto the doorknob with his weird small girl's hand, weird small girl shoulder against the jamb. Sam's arms folded under the pillow and his face turned toward the bathroom door, his hair dark on the white sheets. The stupid daily-disposable body hasn't yet flipped whatever switches get flipped so Dean can look at Sam with clear eyes. At least eyes as clear as they ever are.

Given the options he's had over the years, Sam isn't a bad one. He tried not to think about it much but when he did, if he'd had a few drinks or if it was so late at night his brain was off doing its own stupid thing and he couldn't be blamed for what it thought, he did like -- a certain kind of -- there was a type, maybe was the way to say it, that made what had to be done less bad than it was other times. Tall wasn't bad. Built wasn't bad. A dick like that wasn't bad. Size isn't everything but Dean's always been a glutton.

He sits on the side of the empty bed, knees together. A single tight pulse clenches low in his pelvis and he checks the clock but it's too early, much too early, and that means he's---

Last night--- that was the other thing. He knew how to close his eyes and get through most anything. He'd lived through an entire life that way, much less a black-and-blood afterlife that he managed to keep closed away in the daylight hours. If it was a job he could handle it. Making it be something else was--- harder. He's not an idiot and he knows it wasn't fair to Sam to treat him like a random john or a back-alley hookup or one of those black shadows that had crawled up Dean's back and made him want something he never, ever wanted. But looking it full in the face, that wasn't fair either. To make him--- admit. To make it something he was craving, at eleven in the morning on a random day, when it wasn't forced, and when he could say no, that wasn't him, he would never. Except.

Sam snuffles in his sleep, resettles on the pillow. Dean bites the inside of his lip. He should try to sleep too except he knows it's impossible. He should try to figure out a way out of this stupid curse, except that's not going to happen for him, either. He should--- kill himself, claw his dumb pretty-bitch face off, leave a note for Sam that says how sorry he is about this awful fucked up life and drive off into the woods and take the explosion of his heart as some long-delayed payback for every shitty thing he's ever done.

He peels off his oversized men's jeans, his socks. Shucks the too-big flannel. He lays on his side on the bed with his hands between his knees, facing Sam. A few hours until they've got to do what's got to be done. Sam will make it good and Dean knows that. Whether he can live with it is another question.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: House M.D. Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Greg House/James Wilson Characters: Greg House, James Wilson, College Students - Character Additional Tags: Heavy Angst, Near Drowning, Rage, @Crying Wilson, No Character Death, Maybe suicide attempt Summary:

This is a post-episode fic for Season Seven's "Out of The Chute".

From "Out Of The Chute" S7 x16

What happened after House leapt off the hotel balcony, seemingly committing suicide, but lands in the pool. Wilson watches, traumatized, then does something about it. Warning: super-dramatic, over-the-top, don't step on my id, please. This is also in my Post-Fic series, but it warrants being a stand-alone.

Below the story is the song House quotes. The lyrics sprang into my head while I was writing, so I tracked it down.

Got the CUTEST commish from @ndostairlyrium @sacherali of Thea and Cullen

Thea, as casually affectionate as she is with everyone, had poor Cullen flustered and confused for months and months and months. But it all worked out in the end <3

(Alice was so lovely to work with, please consider commissioning her to draw your characters!)

There’s a very easy way to get around the fact that Assad is unable to pass for a teeenager if the show wants to adapt TVA and that’s to rely on the theme of unreliable narration. Armand begins retelling his history and according to him, he looked like he was in his early adulthood. No older than twenty four, for sure, but also not any younger than twenty. And then, just when the audience has bought it, just when this version of events has been presented as the truth for long enough, someone questions it. Asks if he really looked like that. Asks if he’s being honest with himself. And for the briefest moment, we flashback to Amadeo, the age he was when Marius first saw him. Beaten, shackled, afraid. And undeniably a child.

unbelievably funny that when the seven hit their junior year (after, like, a hell of a lot of shenanigans to all remain in school together despite being different ages) arthur aguefort was like "oh you guys want to stick together? yeah i'll tell you about the mystical ged and stop time to take you to my super secret library and yes i'm going to be weird and cryptic about it all because i'm arthur aguefort, like, duh, but i am still ultimately helping you and i think you're soooo cool i'm so proud of you all [sheds a tear]". and with the bad kids he's like "yeah yeah i know you 'saved the world' but you need to get your grades up or i'll expel you. lol."

I've been brewing this post for far too long in my drafts, but I need more doomed!Bruce and Jason throughout universes. And it is not even always about the same Jaybin, dying in the warehouse scenarios!

Sometimes Jason is just a kid, who died in front of Batman, who maybe jumped in between Batman and the villain recklessly, to keep him safe, and whose blood stuck under Bruce's nails. His face haunts him in nightmares, still.

In other realities, Bruce meets Jason as a teen, and they never even get to become father and son officially - but they slowly get into each other's lives, until something awful happens, leaving a ghost of a smirking kid stroll behind Bruce's hunched figure for the rest of his life.

Or maybe it is one of these realities, where Jason crawls out of the Alley Crime himself, and manages to become famous in Gotham; the one, where he opens a charity fond, dedicated to people, who fight with the drug addiction. Bruce Wayne is sympathetic of a kid he meets during some of the events, and as they slowly start contacting each other more often, getting closer, he promises himself to protect him. Expect, Batman is late to save Jason Todd from the hands of yet another villain.

It could be the priest Jason Todd that meets bleeding out Batman on the stairs of the church, and who helps him out, for what he later pays with his life. Or they are not really vigilantes in any of these universes - just father and son.

And in some of these universes, they reconcile. In one of them, some of the medics connect the dots that a catatonic boy, who is covered in dirt, calling for his dad, for Bruce is Bruce's Wayne dead son, and try calling him. In another, LoA!Jason with his memory still being in a haze, crosses his path with Batman, before getting dipped in the Lazarus Pit.

But the point stands.

In all of them, Bruce Wayne is too late. In all of them, Bruce Wayne fails to save Jason Todd.

Thinking about the fact that Mabel and Dipper didn't know they had two great uncles.

Yeah they are 12 and at 12 I had a shotty understanding of my family tree- But really? Nobody brought up their great uncle? Stanley? Especially since they'll be staying with his twin brother, Stanford?

Shermie never went to Stan's fake funeral, which to me means the twos relationship was strained on some level. If Shermie is older that means his view of Stan was poisoned in some way, that even as kids they weren't close. If the Shermie is younger then he never even got to meet Stan and all he knew about him was how he failed his family. Hell, people probably barely mentioned Stanley TO Shermie.

The fact that Stan had become a black stain upon the Pines family name makes me so vividly upset. Stanley faked his death and the family just- seemingly decided to strike him from the record. To pretend he didn't existed to spare themselves the sadness and shame.

Stanford and Shermie Pines. The only children worth mentioning of Filbrick and Caryn Pines.

It was never Stanford that was lost to the world. It was Stanley, ever since he had to leave New Jersy- it was always him that had to be struck from the record. Change his name, change his state, change his affiliations, destroy the remains of ghost that was Stanley Pines. Kill him so the family doesn't bring him up, doesn't ask questions, stops asking "Stanford" about his twin.

I just keep thinking about the fact that since the day he made one single mistake all the way up until Ford walks out of that machine- Stanley Pines was killed and did not exist. And Stan himself had no one to blame, he had to play the part in his own demise- He is the only one who ever knew Stanley was alive and has been for decades.

He lives in the multitudes of every personality he's ever taken, all in the hope that he himself can stop being Stanley Pines.

I have been consuming Zack Lives AUs and would like to offer the headcannon: Zack keeps a habit of taking initiative for transporting Cloud to places even after Cloud wakes up. Usually grabbing and leading Cloud places, but sometimes ends up with Zack full on hoisting Cloud over his shoulder and starts walking.
