Unexpected attack

Characters: Chris (human), Zander (Vamp) Summary: A vampire attack like you’ve never seen before. Word count: ~ 280 Warnings: This is a vamp fic so there's talks of blood (of course), feeding from unwilling victims, this is a joke fic so don’t expect it to be serious A/N: This is a running joke I’ve had with my brother for a few years and I thought it was about time I shared it to see if anyone else finds it funny. We won’t apologise for our broken sense of humour lol.

Chris’ pace quickened. He had heard steps behind him a few times and he had just heard them again. He glanced back down the path… nothing, again. Don’t be paranoid Christ, it’s just dark, he told himself. Zander had been stalking his prey for a mile now. The burly blonde had caught his eye outside of the local dive bar. He had enjoyed the hunt but things were getting a little boring now. Zander’s thirst intensified. It was time to step things up. Zander let out a growl causing Chris to break out in a run. Zander chuckled to himself, things were about to get interesting. Chris darted round a corner, hoping to get away but Zander was hot on his heels. The hunter growled one last time, hearing the quickening heart rate of his prey. Then he pounced. Pulling the blonde to the ground, Zander sat on top of the struggling man as his hand pulled something from his pocket. Seeing an object coming towards him, Chris panicked, “Please! No-ah!” He cried out as something cold pierced his neck. Zander leaned down and began to drink down his midnight snack. Chris began to feel lightheaded as the life was being slowly drawn out of him. Then he heard something that gave him the strength to glance towards his attacker… it was a slurp, the kind you might expect from someone drinking a milkshake. “What the fu-” he managed before he lost consciousness, the last thing he saw was his blood slowly curling its way through the twists and turns… of a curly straw. Zander chuckled; that look of disbelief was the reason he loved this ridiculous gag gift.

Does asking for a curly straw have, like, a non-literal meaning :?

It's a Transformers joke. I'm actually surprised you're the first person who's asked because not all my friends are into Transformers.

(The tag "sorry I had to" and variants thereof often refers to my making a joke I know not everyone on my feed will understand and many others will groan and/or cringe at because my brain thinks it's too funny and won't let me not say it)

The four million year war that broke out allegedly began because Rung (who was a deity incarnate, but absolutely didn't know it) complained about not getting a curly straw in his drink at Maccadam's Old Oil House (a bar) and a fight broke out around him.

(Hence, why I wouldn't have brought this up if they hadn't said Jesus and Buddha were involved--I don't think either one of them is a deity, but some people do and in popular culture they're treated as such!)

The fight wasn't the start of the war, but some people say it was Megatron's first experience with police brutality and radicalised him; possibly because they don't understand that the people who needled his brain a few days/weeks previously also had police powers.

Bruce was off planet when everyone was turned into teenagers. They had some access to their memories, but their emotional states seemed to match their ages. It would be fine though, right?

[insert frantic bat out of hell dash to earth]

Bruce didn’t know what he was expecting, but it wasn’t this bullshit.

- Damian was teaching Jason how to paint

- Duke was sparring all out with Tim

- Cass had talked Steph and Babs into playing knife tag

- Alfred was unaccounted for, along with several guns, a concerning amount of money, and all data on the last known whereabouts of Deathstroke, Tarantula, Ra’s, and Joker

- Dick was stapled to the vaulted ceiling (clothes, not skin), cursing out everyone else

- The word “Snitch,” was also written on Dick’s forehead

|| 🍍• To any new Transformers fans coming in off the back of Transformers: One

Yes, we can confirm it is widely accepted that Megatron and Optimus are in fact divorced, and have a raging 4-million year+ custody battle for their Autobots and Decepticons…

And, NO, we are not sane…

Always seen y'all talking abt MTMTE so I finally got to reading it and I gotta say. I feel like you've neglected some Absolutely Essential details

[strawhatghost]

With the ASL kitties, do you see Dadan as the foster lady that takes care of them or a street cat they follow around?

You made me consider her as a foster lady who hates cats being forcibly adopted by the cat distribution system and caring for them, but...

Curly cat Curly Dadan ITS PERFECT. She's a Cornish Rex Persian!!

Unwilling street mama to three tiny cars! I think she'd be the leader of a feral cat colony and is spayed. She got saddled with Ace through Garp probably, and then he came home with a purebred one night. And then Garp showed up again with a half drowned rat (kitten Luffy) now she's stuck with them forever

Library Pictures

We did this sorta like the old way, I guess [how] we used to work out a lot of songs. There was bits lying around and we had this quite chaotic sorta tune going on where it was slowing down and the riffs and everyone is taking a solo at once or whatever – and they’re all fighting with each other. And then, I kinda just wanted the words on it to subscribe to that chaos as well … That were probably the most fun tune to do, everyone were feeling a bit ropey that day and quite ungoverned … [the] guitar lead is called the 'thunder suckle fuzz canyon’.

The Ocean Where The Stars Follow You 💫

[One Piece - ASL Never Met AU]

The one Roger trusted his son with wasn't Garp. That one small difference created a whole lot of changes.

In which, Ace was raised by Rayleigh, Sabo still tried so hard to leave the Goa Kingdom, and Luffy grew up without brothers.

Ace - Intro 1 | Early Childhood

Instead of Garp, Roger trusted his son with Rayleigh so Ace was raised by Rayleigh and Shakky on Saobody.

Ace is a much happier boy because he knows his parents love him from the start. He doesn't have parental issues aside from a little guilt for Rouge's death. Rayleigh spends a lot of time telling him stories about Roger and Rouge.

However, Ace also didn't grow up without issues. Rayleigh continued mourning Roger and Rouge for a long time and Ace sometimes reminds him about them a lot. Ace developed quite a complex about it, sometimes feeling guilty for making Rayleigh sad.

Rayleigh did try his best but Saobody is not a nice place for a child to grow up. Ace got in a lot of trouble. He also saw a lot of ugly things under the cheerful surface of it. By the time he reaches his teenage years, Ace already has a rather big reputation on Saobody.

Sabo - Intro 1 | Early Childhood

Sabo's early years follow the same as canon. The 5-year-old noble child ran away to live in the Grey Terminal. However, there is no Ace for him to befriend with.

Sabo spent his following years living alone in Grey Terminal, stealing and robbing people. At one point, his father found out and got him back. The fire in Grey Terminal still happened. Sabo met Dragon briefly while trying to warn him about it.

In the end, Sabo still chose to leave Dawn Island and was shot down by the Tenryuubito that visited the Goa Kingdom. He was saved by Dragon and the Revolutionary Army.

And here is the twist. Sabo doesn't have amnesia. He remembers perfectly his childhood and there is nothing on Dawn Island that makes him want to come back. Because there were no brothers and shared happiness. As far as Sabo is concerned, the only thing waiting for him back in the Goa Kingdom is suffering. So he went with the Revolutionary Army and never looked back.

Luffy - Intro 1 | Early Childhood

After Shanks and his crew left, Garp didn't bring Luffy to Dadan. Luffy spent the rest of his childhood in Foosha Village.

Luffy, due to spending more years with Makino in her bar, learned a bit of her skills. He still is a disaster in the kitchen but Luffy is actually good at bartending.

At one point, in his boredom, Luffy decided to explore the jungle. He eventually met Dadan and her bandits as well as discovered the Grey Terminal. Luffy in a stroke of luck, found Sabo's old stash of pirate funds. He used it to pay for a part of his tab at Makino bar.

Since finding out about the big animals on the mountain, Luffy started to go hunting more often and spent more time on the mountain. He usually crashed Dadan's place despite her protest. She stopped complaining once Luffy left her some of his hunts and some treasures he robbed the thugs from the Grey Terminal.

Luffy's main place was still Garp's small house in Foosha Village. It's where he kept all his stuff.

Assorted One Piece Modern AU HCs

The Whitebeard Pirates are all part of a shelter/relief/mutual aid network for drug users, unhoused people, and vulnerable youth. Ace looks up to them all immensely and volunteers part time, but he's still very much on a journey of self discovery and healing

Ace is a massive music nerd and hobbyist with a near encyclopedic knowledge of genre histories and subcultural spaces. He goes to a lot of local acts his friends are involved in, plays the drums and bass and hangs out at Brook's recording studio/jams with him from time to time while he's in town (Brook loves Luffy and his family, and he's just happy to entertain young people who make or love music and let them use the space). He's undecided in his major but kinda leaning toward sociology or social work.

(Rayleigh is his prof, and unbeknownst to him, a college buddy/old flame of his bio parents who recognized him immediately and has no clue what to do with himself.)

Sabo is, of course, a socialist student organizer in a poli-sci/law program and interning at Dragon's practice (grassroots activist turned civil rights lawyer). The ASL brothers live together in a shitty apartment with barely any heat. He's secretly a massive film snob and organizes Radical Documentary Screenings with Koala from time to time.

Dadan has a cabin like 2 hours outside the city in the mountains and the brothers crash there every now and then over the holidays. She's retired now and constantly gripes about having to feed and shelter her stupid kids every time they come home but she still gets teary whenever she watches them go. Their childhood bedroom and three bunk beds are perfectly preserved and cleaned, and she wouldn't ever dream of moving Ace's posters or Sabo's old bookshelf and criterion DVDs or Luffy's plushies and taxidermied insects.

Brook's band is a genre-blending indie darling that occasionally tours the country. I'm definitely not the first one to think of this, but Laboon is a Newfoundland with severe separation anxiety and Brook has to bring him on tour or to half of the group outings. The Rumbar Pirates are a local jazz act he performs with from time to time, and he may or may not have dated Calico Yorki.

Usopp (fresh out of high school) only recently reconnected with his father and they've been having awkward family dinners with Kaya but it's getting less weird having Yasopp around. He babysits the Usopp Pirates part time and they love him to pieces; he's low-key interested in studying Botany and horticulture and has been checking out local degrees and training programs.

Franky's in the middle of an auto mechanic apprenticeship and is debating trying to get into a mech eng program at Robin's university; he was raised by Tom as a carpenter, and has worked as one for a really long time, but he's increasingly getting into engines and inventing things and the family's very supportive. Robin's a Masters student doing an hourly TA thing in Clover's class on Archaeology of the Void Century, and they're married.

Sanji, naturally, works at the Baratie and Zeff lets him brainstorm and test daily specials or set menus for holidays. He and Pudding are in the same patissier courses at culinary school (she's obviously a baking major); they're exes who've stayed friends and care deeply for each other. The ASL brothers sometimes pick up shifts at the Baratie (with the exception of Luffy who broke way too many dishes)–Zeff really likes all of Sanji's friends and dumps leftovers on them
