#c: the bodyguard

[glitzglamgunpowder-if]

💙 BLUE HEART - do they miss their s/o easily? how do they act when their s/o isn't around?

I'm assuming these are for the ROs! Here they are :)

Alistair/Alice Delacroix (THE RIVAL) - "Miss" would be an understatement. They crave your presence when you're not around. They feel most human when you're around. They don't really want to imagine a life where MC doesn't exist. A's close associates could attest to how...different they've been after they met MC

Samuel/Samantha "Sam" Kaminski (THE BOSS) - S has spent a lot of their life feeling alone in crowded rooms. It was more of a voluntary isolation though, as they're very particular about the people they choose to spend their time around. Before meeting MC, they would have been fine spending their time without a significant other. But after? They would have a lingering restlessness settled in the back of their mind. It would be difficult for others to pick up on it though, S is really good at maintaining appearances when needed

Hendrik/Helena Rietveld (THE BODYGUARD) - There is no doubt that H would miss MC, but they would be able to compartmentalize their feelings really well because they refuse to let their emotions interfere with their work. When MC's not around, they're much sterner, and lowkey unapproachable, so don't even bother asking for a favor if MC isn't in their vicinity

Jesse Lê (THE FRIEND DETECTIVE) - OH ABSOLUTELY YES!! Especially given the fact that they've lost MC before, they're certainly worried it could happen again, and always want to make the most of their time whenever they're together. They'd still be able to hold it together if MC wasn't around, they've had to do that for over a decade, but when MC gets back, they'd be so clingy (affectionate)

Prompt 80

 So Dan knows that there’s heroes that have gone back in time, he’s aware of that fact. But he doesn’t exactly care and has more important things to worry about. Like the fact that Danny and Ellie are now three years old, right when he’s moving, though maybe that’s a blessing in disguise seeing as the GIW are searching for them in Amity. 

  But still, he has more important things to worry about than the speedster vibrating five feet away from him. Like making sure Ellie and Danny are alright to visit (ugh) Peepaw Clocky while he goes to work. 

  Ms. Mercy is not messing around, which he appreciates in a workspace, but he has to wait for another opening in the daycare before he can bring his, as far as everyone else is aware, siblings who he got emergency custody of. 

  What with how Jazz is interning in Gotham, they figured Metropolis would be safer. Now if the speedster would stop following him, he would really appreciate it. He’s literally just an intern under Ms Mercy as an assistant, not even one of the scientists, and it’s not like his timeline of the end of the world exists anymore!

Hey, Soot, you may say, why don't you use your saved up gems to buy those gem genes for all of your projects?

But behold, a nifty skin, I say! And poof go my gems.

Skin is L by Laeyein.

Drunz Bodyguard AU

The Bodyguard was the most picked option so here is the post about it:

Dream is a popular musician and while walking out late at night after a concert gets attacked and burned by a psychotic fan. This leaves him with multiple wounds all over his body, becoming blind in his right eye and where he also has a huge burn on the right side of his face and neck

Sam, who is Dream's manager, decides to hire a bodyguard for Dream as the criminal is still at large. The bodyguard he hires is Punz who is experienced at his job. has worked for multiple successful people and is highly recommended in his field

Punz is told by Sam to protect Dream in the way of 'protect him so we can make more money' instead of 'protect him as he went through a traumatic event'; Sam is also trying to force Dream to go along with doing a comeback tour even though Dream isn't ready to perform

Punz originally thinks that Dream is a snobby rude person who thinks the world is at his feet like all the other people Punz worked for in the past. Dream snaps at Punz and everyone around him which reaffirms how Punz thinks about him

When Punz finds Dream backstage after a rehearsal, he gets punched by Dream when he taps him on the shoulder. At first, Punz is angry and is thinking about quitting when he notices that Dream is crying

Turns out that a stagehand said something that triggered Dream and made him experience a flashback of the night of the attack and he lashed out because he thought Punz was his attacker.

Eventually, Punz realizes that Dream being mean to everyone is a self-defense mechanism when he is afraid and realizes that Dream needs to get more help than what he had received after the attack

As Punz helps Dream get better (ie. helping him sneak out to a festival Dream wanted to attend that Sam told him he couldn't go to, find another therapist as the first therapist didn't help Dream get to the root of his problems, reach out to Dream's old friends Sapnap and George who he drifted apart from while his career was taking off), the two slowly begin to develop feelings for one another

And nothing bad will ever happen

Jk, Punz gets shot and Dream gets kidnapped by his attacker

That's all I will reveal bye!

ooh do tell about the bodyguard AU 👀

Christine is a first-name-only type of superstar, the biggest pop star in the world...or, well...she was...and she will be again if only she can secure music academy recognition for this big movie credit song. Everything is lined up: the single, the press tour, her face plastered all over Los Angeles. Everything rides on this, so when a nagging stalker breaks in to her Beverly Hills mansion, her team will do anything to ensure this goes off without any more hiccups.

Erik had thought he was off the grid since the last security detail he was on went wrong. But when Nadir calls...he begrudgingly answers. This short gig will be enough, Nadir promises, for Erik to disappear for good. All he has to do is protect some pampered princess in Beverly Hills for six weeks. Easy enough.

Thanks for the ask, Nerdy!! This fic is almost done, and this is helping push me to finish it!

Originally, when setting up the 30 gallon tank, we got three tiny little threadlike Kuhli loaches. Two darker (above) and one lighter in colour. They are now big Chunkus Wyrms and thriving.

Just before the holiday we got a tiny, threadlike singleton Kuhli loach, rescued from being an "only loach" in a bare tank (no hidey spots.) He had buried himself in the group of Pygmy corys that were freaking out in the back of the tank as well. (Kuhli loaches need friends and hidey places.)

We brought them all home, Pygmy corys and tiny loach. I was concerned for the tiny thread who promptly disappeared into the vegetation in the tank. We did not see him for three weeks.

However, he has resurfaced!

And he is at least four times larger than when he was last seen diving into the foliage! How did he survive the Guppy Threat?

His protector, Wyatt, Bestest Betta in the Fishiverse.

Wyatt has been stuffing loach wafers under the Spiderwood, and chasing off the Guppies when they get obnoxious. And now that Tiniest Loach is starting to explore more of the tank, his bodyguard is never far from his side.

(Last photo shows Wyatt warning off a Guppy while Tiniest Loach peeks out from under the Spiderwood.)

Think AFO would introduce Torino to his cool new son Tomura he found for free off the side of the road

this was AFO's initial plan in dad fails of the week, chapter 6. because CLEARLY the biggest issue lingering between them was the lack of a pitiable child to bandage the relationship, and considering his husband's attachment to the Shimura woman, doesn't Tomura fix both issues???

(and then Toshinori practically domed AFO, at which point AFO switched courses to bodysnatch Tomura instead. "it's not weird," AFO insists. "look, the body even has the Shimura woman's smile!")

So there’s this thing in pigeon-keeping, called Tiger Swallow pigeons- it’s a cruel practice where their feathers are plucked from a young age, and after a few molts, they develop this pattern as the new ones grow in white.

And while this is a horrific practice in real life, the implications for Winged AUs is interesting… several body modifications I can think of involve a lot of hurt on the upfront for an interesting effect- so in a Winged setting, would something like this be done? To achieve a dazzling ‘striped’ pattern.

I couldn't help myself, I had to make Zero in beskar armour a reality. my desperation to see it realized overpowered my trepidation in the face of drawing armour, such was its power. (it was actually really fun to draw tho, turns out!) I imagine that it's beskar prosthetic arm + plate armour on the upper body and right arm, where the majority of Zero's remaining organic parts are still hanging out, and beneath that a cortosis weave undersuit for the whole body as an extra layer of insurance. altogether it probably costs more than the yearly national budget of a decently sized Mid-Rim planet and involved several acts of brazen, breathless corruption/treason on Blue's part, but damn if Zero isn't going to be all but invulnerable by the end of it (and ready to face down lightsaber users especially -- this could be real cool if they'd end up going against Louphan eventually).

needless to say blue has a picture of zero in full armour hanging over his bed like a pinup poster. yes in a horny way. he also definitely helped design the look of it

+ my first little design idea sketch! (or rather the first one that stuck/didn't make me want to crawl under a rock and never come out haha)
