“60s horror movies reflect an era of rapid change and uncertainty, and a yawning generation gap. the social stability of the post-war years crumbled as attitudes to everything from hemlines to homosexuality underwent a seismic shift. horror movies, especially those made for low budgets outside the mainstream studio system, offered ways to process and interpret the rapid pace of change. they often served as cautionary tales about the dangers of abandoning traditional values.”

Using no colors other than black and white for this made me want to rip my hair out

Imagine going to the carnival with Simon.

Gender-neutral reader.

Let's say he's on leave and there's a traveling carnival heading through town so of course you drag Simon along with you, naturally. Coerce him into buying you both corndogs and lemon shake-ups and funnel cake and play all the carnival games, and he definitely gets frustrated when he can't land those god damned rings on the bottles.

But then you spot it a few pop-up stands away. A massive stuffed animal that you absolutely need to take home. And just your luck, it's one of those arcade-like shooter games, so you're turning to him with the biggest puppy eyes you can manage and asking him so sweetly to win it for you.

And ohohoooo boy, as soon as you point it out to Simon, he's on a fucking mission. Slaps the money down in front of the vendor, gets in position, and he looks so bloody attractive when he's so focused and effortlessly hitting target after target with the cheaply-made, unreliable toy rifle. He even adjusts for the off-center scope while you watch excitedly behind him.

The vendor has to stop him short before he wins the entire fucking wall of stuffed animals and pool floaties in one round, and then they get the comically large stuffed animal off the rack for you and Simon takes it and turns to you with a smug look, his dark and brooding demeanor contrasting with the cartoonish and comically large prize in his arms.

You take it from him happily as you both make your way back to his car, the silly thing taking up the entirety of the back seat.

"Hope that thing doesn't replace me in bed tonight," he grumbles, amused.

"I'd never," you say to him. (It ends up in bed with you anyway, but he's possessive enough that he'll scrap with the bloody thing to spoon with you. You'll wake up in the morning with the stuffed animal mysteriously having ended up on the other side of the room.)

inspired by my ex-military uncle scaring that poor carnival game vendor in a shooting game at our local carnival last week winning a giant pink orca for a little girl (the same uncle who blew a giant hole in the ground with a firework on the 4th of July)

the last part's inspired by that "me and my girlfriend and her life-sized body pillow" meme that was circulating fandoms a while back

Have some sword dancing 🗡️

Description under the cut:

[ID: Mollymauk Teafleaf from Critical Role. Mollymauk is a purple skinned tiefling, wearing a heavily embroidered red and teal coat around his waist as a skirt, patterned leggings and a long teal scarf around his chest, trailing it's ends over his arms. He is facing away from the viewer, standing in a spotlight up on his toes on one foot, throwing a sword in the air while holding another behind him. End ID]

A while back you made a post talking about yakumo and his sensitivity to temperature and I haven't stopped thinking about it. imagine when winter comes around and yakumo becomes progressively sluggish, usually staying in the kitchen and not leaving for hours, always making something near the stove to feel a little warmth from the flames or from a little taste of the things he's making (soup probably), or him picking up the habit of bundling himself up and staying in the library to read and nap. maybe when it starts getting even colder he barely leaves his room because its too uncomfortably cold for him, and if he does he's probably looking for eiden to help him warm up, but if eidens not around he gets antsy and looks for somebody else in the mansion, but he's too shy to ask and looks at whoever with his wet eyes so they know he's cold and wants a cuddle

*inhales deeply* ah yes. you understand. you envision it all so clearly. rightly so. gEt in the wAy, everybody, snake burrito walking the halls very very slowly!!!!!!! (i was about to say get OUT of the way but that would probably make yakumo colder so why not do him a favour and collide with him on your way to another room)

like the thing that irritates me most is that it would be so easy to make kuya cute. it would literally be so easy. it would fit so perfectly with his established personality and flaws that i keep getting surprised that they DON'T do it.

he just needs to fall in love with eiden. he wouldn't know it, he wouldn't get it, and he would be deeply confused by it. it would be fucking adorable. he would get jealous seeing eiden with the other clan members, especially quincy, or even someone like blade or olivine who just very openly expresses affection for him. and he wouldn't probably even realize he was jealous, either, because he's ~too powerful for stuff like that.~ and it frustrates him because he is that powerful, this shouldn't be happening to him, he didn't even feel this way about huey, and he actually respected huey.

there would be a card story where kuya was just sort of observing eiden having a normal day, intending to play a prank or mess with him or something, but instead he just ends up... watching. eiden kisses yakumo on the cheek while he cooks and he blushes. he teases edmond, has tea with aster, listens to rei talk about his work even though he obviously doesn't get it, and kuya watches, feeling a million miles away.

or a story where he does prank eiden, but goes way too far and eiden genuinely gets upset, blows up at him, refuses to talk to him, and kuya... cares? maybe even... misses him? potentially even considers the fact that he did something wrong, instead of just blaming it on eiden being young or an idiot or on some cultural difference between humans and yokai? and now they're both sulking and aster makes quincy do something about it because they're killing the vibes in the mansion.

even his scenes would be cuter, he wouldn't even change that much, he'd just be a little gentler of a dom, a little more affectionate, maybe acting completely like his usual self but then stops when eiden protests and asks is this okay, young master? are you okay? do you need anything? because he still loves messing with him, but he gets worried, because he has to accept that there are things about humans, and even eiden specifically, that he doesn't just Know, and he could hurt him, or upset him, and he actually cares about that.

stories where eiden gets surprised by kuya doing something thoughtful, and he laughs and says wow, who knew you were actually a sweetheart somewhere in there! and kuya's heart skips a beat, maybe he even gets a little flustered, you know, god forbid. because yeah they've had sex but if kuya's nice, eiden hugs him or squeezes his hand or kisses him, and kuya doesn't know what to do with that.

it would be so easy. i literally keep expecting it to happen somehow in the game because it makes so much sense to me it's like i'm getting edged

you know what sounds incredibly troublesome?? concocting a medicine that repels earthworms, digging up the roots of whatever plant they’re currently feeding on and spraying the soil where those plants used to be with the aforementioned medicine. god knows how many of these plants need to be dug up. could be hundreds of them.

and you know what quincy, local hater of all things troublesome decides to do anyways?? help yakumo with such a troublesome task. he 100% didn’t have to, by the way. he could’ve just told yakumo what to do, he’s good at following instructions, but no. quincy decided that not only was he going to make the medicine after buying the ingredients from the market, but also go all the way to yakumo’s village and help dig up each of the plants and put the medicine in the holes left behind.

i.. was right. i was so right. quincy would do anything for yakumo, no matter how troublesome. he’ll sigh and mumble all the while, sure, but if he really didn’t want to do it, he just wouldn’t. we know quincy. if anyone else were to ask for his help with such a tedious task he would 100% just explain to them how to do and be on his way. but not yakumo.

yakumo asks quincy to do something, and he does it, no matter how troublesome. yakumo asks quincy a question, and he takes it seriously, no matter how difficult it may be to explain. honestly, if yakumo said jump, quincy would most likely ask ‘how high’ because he of all people knows it’s pretty much impossible to say no to the serpent’s sweet face ♡
