Fic-to-Art #44: Zuko and Katara meet Hotaru

This time around, my Patrons chose these two scenes from the prompt I offered them... and that prompt was "Hotaru", our tiny firefly herself <3 drawing her continues to be a challenge pertaining how to ever make babies look cute, but I hope she looks alright this time!

These two moments take place not too far from the other, but it's worth noting that Katara and Zuko don't get to see Hotaru at the exact same time. Thus, I figured I'd take advantage of the opportunity... and draw Sokka and Azula introducing their little one to their respective siblings. This will be an emotional chapter (lots of those coming up), but I do hope that these moments of happiness will be a good way to soothe the pains caused by our very intense angst from the current chapters... to be specific, this is chapter 378, so we're not that far away!! Just gotta wait a bit longer!

A part of me took joy in this specific prompt... the fandom has an abundance of "uncle Sokka" and "aunt Azula" content, be it with them together or not, while Zuko and Katara (also while together or not) happen to be the ones who become parents first. This often relegates their siblings to a secondary role, and too often there's either implications or outright accusations that these two just aren't fit for parenting. I don't really remember seeing much, if any, content where Zuko and Katara are the uncle and aunt instead... thus, I figured this would be a fun switch-up that, ultimately, doesn't mean any of these four aren't fit for parenting (Zuko's already a dad, Katara will be a mother someday in the future!)! It just means that Zuko and Katara get to bond with little Hotaru and be supportive siblings! And everyone's happy and wholesome in the process!

At any rate! I hope you guys like it, and as ever, if you'd like to be part of the creative process behind these pieces, a $1 pledge makes you eligible for suggesting art prompts and voting for the winner, as well as reading Gladiator snippets 6 days before the next chapter releases!

So like, ever since I started playing Reverse 1999 I just had this idea in my head, so let this be the start of a series that I would like to call, "Stupid Touhou Crossovers" title explains itself, it's just really dumb crackfic doodles between the 2hus and other fandoms I'm in or have been in

BMC Fanfictionnnn

Wrote this fanfiction cuz' I just really wanted to see a fanfiction of Michael teaching Jeremy how to drive. I know, I know, technicallyyyy Michael would be too young to teach Jeremy how to drive but just LET ME HAVE THIS. IT'S A FUN CONCEPT. Anyways, this probably takes place the summer before their senior year but yeah. Might edit this fic more later but Imma just let it be for rn. I wrote this in one day. Please have mercy 😭. Anyways, enjoyyyyy-

(side note: They say "okay" so much but I just couldn't think of any other way they would say this stuff. And I took out a lot of "okays" cuz' I started out with a lot more. 😭😭Idk man. Just look past it ig 😭)

“Okay! Here we are!” Michael said as he pulled into an empty parking lot. It had taken Jeremy a little longer to get his permit. Mostly because the thought of driving just slightly terrified him. But now, here he was. Sitting in the passenger seat of a P.T. Cruiser. About to have his first driving lesson with Michael.

Michael turned to Jeremy with a grin. “Ya ready?”

Jeremy sighed nervously. “No.” He kept his gaze down as he rubbed his hands up and down his jeans.

Michael put a hand on Jeremy’s leg. “You got this, man. I got you.”

Jeremy looked up at Michael fearfully. “What if we crash? What if I crash?”

Michael looked back at Jeremy sincerely. “Hey, you’re not gonna crash. That’s what the brake’s for. You got this, okay?”

Jeremy looked down again and let out a noise that was something between a hum of agreement and a groan of dread. 

Michael laughed a little at that. “Okay.”

Michael unbuckled his seatbelt and went to open the car door so that he and Jeremy could switch sides. Jeremy did the same.

“Alllllright!” Michael said as he settled in the passenger seat. “First of all, we gotta buckle up.”

They both buckled their seatbelts.

Michael turned to Jeremy. “Great! Okay, now, hold your foot down on the brake and switch the gear shift to drive.”

Jeremy did so very carefully, then turned to look at Michael.

Michael smiled back at him. “Awesome! Now, here comes the fun part. The driving.”

Jeremy swallowed while holding a crushing grip on the wheel.

“Don’t worry. You got this, bud.” Michael assured him. “Just start with taking your foot off the brake just a little.”

Jeremy looked straight ahead and did so. 

As the car slowly started rolling forward, Michael continued, “Now, you’re gonna wanna take your foot off the brake and press on the accelerator just a little.”

Jeremy put his foot on the accelerator and the car went from rolling to zooming forward. 

Michael panicked slightly and reached for the ceiling handle. “Woah, okay! Not that much! Press the brake, dude!”

Jeremy, equally panicked, slammed on the brake. 

The boys both swung forward and back from the sudden stop. 

Jeremy was still staring straight ahead but now with wide eyes.

Michael laughed nervously. “Okay, so, uh, don’t do that. The accelerator’s really sensitive-” he smiled as the dumb joke came to his head. “-like me. Heh heh. So, uh, just barely press your foot down, man.”

Jeremy nodded excessively. “Okay.” He did so and the car started moving at a steady pace.

“Yes! You’re doing it, Jere!” He flapped his hand excitedly with a grin. “Just keep going straight till’ we get to that turn there. And when you stop, just ease your foot onto the brake as you get there. Don’t slam it.”

Jeremy kept driving then slowly stopped the car right before the turn. “Was that good?” He eyed Michael.

“That was great! You’re doing so good, Jere!”

Jeremy smiled nervously.

“Okay, now, turning…” Michael let his hands fall to his lap.

“Mhm.” Jeremy said to acknowledge he was listening to Michael without looking at him.

Michael continued “You just gotta turn the wheel where ya wanna go and then the wheel will just slide back into place after. And make sure you don’t go too fast, for right now. Just lift your foot off the brake and then turn.”

Jeremy turned smoothly. 

“Great! Now, just keep moving straight and get ready for that turn down there.”

Jeremy kept driving forward but as the next turn came up, he tipped the wheel too far to the left and was now heading for a curb. “Shit! Fuck!” He tried to turn the wheel the other way.

“Brake!” Michael exclaimed as his hand flew up to the handle again. 

Jeremy slammed the brake and the boys, once again, swung forward then back.

They both just sat there for a moment. The car was now up on a curb. Michael released his grip on the handle and let his hand fall into his lap.

Jeremy looked over to the passenger seat with teary eyes. His words came out in one breath. “Michael, I’m so sorry. This was stupid. I can’t drive. I don’t-”

Michael cut him off softly. “Dude, it’s okay! The car’s alright. We’re alright. Everything’s good!”

Jeremy stayed silent.

“You alright?” Michael asked.

“Yeah, I’m- I’m okay.” Jeremy said shakily. His breathing started to slow. 

“Okay.” Michael said calmly. “I’ll help you out, man.” He looked to Jeremy who looked forward, tightened his grip on the wheel, and nodded.

“Okay, so you’ve got your foot on the brake. Just keep it there and put the gear shift to reverse.” Michael instructed.

Jeremy did so and then looked at Michael expectedly.

Michael smiled. “Now take your foot off the brake and just let the car roll back”

Jeremy nodded again and did what Michael said.

“Brake here.” Michael said calmly.

Jeremy braked.

Michael continued. “Now put it back in drive, straighten out the car and just keep going forward.” Jeremy did and Michael smiled. “Yeah! You got it, dude!”

Jeremy weakly smiled, his eyes still ahead.

After driving forward for a little longer, Michael turned to Jeremy. “You wanna stop here?”

Jeremy slowed down the car until it came to a stop. He turned to Michael “... Yeah.”

Michael smiled. “Alright.”

Jeremy put the car in park and the boys both unbuckled their seatbelts before walking out of the car and switching sides.

Michael turned to Jeremy from the driver's seat and held out his fist. “You did good, dude.”

Jeremy smiled tiredly and returned the fist-bump. “Thanks, man.”

there is some symbolism iv never considered in that one episod of pt5 where zenigata rescues fujiko before she kills lupin

I think the funny thing about my being a youth leader is that I basically just Hang Out with a bunch of middle schoolers. like I just pal around with them and play games and then sit down and ramble at the youth pastor when it's time to discuss the Biblical topic of the night and somehow this has charmed like half a dozen of them into considering me A Cool Person despite the fact that I'm actually Introverted And Awkward at all times

rewatching alien stage after round 7 heres my thoughts on a prsk version:

sua -> haruka mizu -> an till -> akito ivan -> toya luka -> mafyu hyuna -> shiho

[bugcadaver]

i just wanna read but my options in this house r either 1) my room, which is nice n private but only has my bed to sit on, or more preferable The Floor, or 2) the front room, which has a comfy chair n lamp set up, but family come in n out of which is extremely distracting

if i wanna b able to read more than a sentence at a time it's gotta be my room But i'll probably b too uncomfy to focus anyway.. bleeehh

also this house is So unfriendly to device use, which ig is good. every room has massive windows so bright sun all day, n all the blinds/curtains got torn down but not replaced. plus all the window settings r rotted or filled w asbestos so its not worth putting new ones up atm

i moved in in august n the idea was have the house liveable by xmas but lol @ that happening. obvs i can't fix anything myself or organise getting some1 to do it.. the fam's gotta take out loans to repair the house 2 sell it but everyone's got 100 other things to deal with first.. i'm just here helping keep the place sort of tidy in the meantime. god i'm already sick of it tho, the 2 months not paying rent have been nice but id like my own space asap

(...gotta find a new roommate, gotta find an affordable apartment somewhere i can get to work)...aiya.. i just want like a 1bedroom house out of the city, man

Ok fingers crossed I'm not jinxing it but I think the headache subsided. So that's good. Except now I have the inexplicable urge to slam my head through a wall so that's Fun.

OCD is pretty common among autistic people, and many of us who dont have full-on OCD may experience some things that can be kinda similar to some aspects of it. I'm on the spectrum myself and i also have this issue of basically getting stuck on some thoughts. It sucks, sometimes it's something that makes me angry but doesnt actually matter that much in the grand acheme of things and i just end up in a bad mood over something stupid and cant stop thinking abt it for a few days even though there are no new thoughts about it, i just keep going through old ones again and again and again. I dont know if there's a term for it, but hey, at least I'm not the only one, and neither are you. Generally i just look for distractions and wait until the thoughts get less obsessive and annoying

That makes sense, thanks!

the first t2 interrogation is here! hopefully, it will help you understand their murders and backstories and what kind of people akio and aimi are better because.. this interrogation reveals a lot :)

as always, a reminder that you can send questions for interrogations and some of these questions were also sent by some of you, so thank you so much!

Q.001. What can you tell us about your parents?

Akio: They're very caring and patient with me. They deserve only the best for everything they have done for me.

Aimi: They're very nice, I love them a lot! They can be just a little bit.. What's the right word.. Basically, sometimes it felt like they didn't care about my feelings that much. But it was most likely just them being unintentionally insensitive.. I think.

Q.002. Did you hate your victim?

Akio: How many times I have to repeat it for you? I hated him. I hated him so much.

Aimi: Are we talking about the person that was killed only by me without any help? If so.. I think I started to hate him only a moment before I had murdered him. Saying that I hate him feels so weird, but I think it's time for me to finally be honest with myself.

Q.003. What is your biggest fear?

Akio: Not being good enough.

Aimi: Being left all alone.

Q.004. Would you commit the same crime again?

Akio: .. I don't know.

Aimi: I just couldn't let that person live. So yes, I think I'd still kill him even if I wasn't bullied.

Q.005. Tell us about your accomplice.

Akio: He was weird. But surprisingly charismatic. I think I got to know his true self only when I saw his reaction to seeing Chise's corpse.

Aimi: He was very kind and very caring, I loved spending time with him, he always tried to make every single day of my life as fun as possible! He was.. very overprotective though. That freak wouldn't let me live a normal life.

Q.006. Have you ever had a significant other?

Akio: Fine, if I say yes, will you finally leave me alone?

Aimi: Nope! I was always more interested in making friends, but I'd love to go on a date with someone.

Q.007. Is there anyone you hold in high esteem?

Akio: .. It used to be myself.

Aimi: I don't think so? Ah, I respect Akio-kun a lot, does that count?

Q.008. When do you wake up/go to bed?

Akio: Before Milgram, I woke up at 7 am and went to sleep at 1 or 2 am because of how much schoolwork I had. Now I can't fall asleep at all, so all of that doesn't matter anymore.

Aimi: I try to wake up as early as I can now, so that I can take care of Akio-kun. He barely gets any sleep now.. You will forgive him, right? And I usually go to bed at 10 or 11 pm.

Q.009. How do you feel about your classmates?

Akio: They were always anxious and stressed and under a lot of pressure because we all went to an elite school, so almost all my classmates were obsessed with their grades and being the best students in class. Arata and Chise were the only exceptions and maybe that's why my relationship with them was different from what I had with others.

Aimi: .. When I remember everything they said about me, I start feeling not so good, haha..

Q.010. What kind of person would you want your best friend to be?

Akio: Someone who can make me feel like a god even when I'm not doing well.

Aimi: Someone who never makes fun of me and never tries to take advantage of my weakness.

Q.011. Any complaints about being imprisoned?

Akio: .. Are you kidding me?

Aimi: I think you should do something about Maruyama-san. I don't feel safe with someone like her around.

Q.012. What do you hate the most?

Akio: Being underestimated.

Aimi: People who don't appreciate my kindness. I'm trying so hard to help you, so why do you keep pushing me away?

Q.013. Do you miss your family?

Akio: .. Yes.

Aimi: To be honest, I miss my dogs more, haha.. That's a bad thing to say, right? Like, I told you that I love all of them the last time we did this.

Q.014. What do you want from the guards?

Akio: Don't take Aimi away from me.

Aimi: Please take care of Akio-kun.

Q.015. How did you feel after you have committed your crime?

Akio: I ran away. I couldn't look my accomplice in the eyes after we were done.

Aimi: I felt like I've finally become free, even though I had to pay a high price for my freedom.
