Au where everyone lives and Kakashi becomes Hokage when Hiruzen retires :)
The elderās try to get Minato, but Shikaku still nominates Kakashi because he thinks heād be a good Hokage, and ultimately Kakashi is chosen
Naturally Obito is a little crushed, but he quickly gets over it and decides to become the most obnoxious right hand man ever
He does not actually get to be the āright handā but is instead put on the new council Kakashi forms after retiring the elders. A voice Kakashi will happily listen to, and just as happily ignore if he thinks Obito is being hard headed
#i think Obitoās outlook is needed obv#cuz he was actually willing to make genuine changes#but i think Kakashi would be the better Hokage#konoha would still become an economic giant#and Obito would have free reign to bug the shit out of Kakashi for his entire reign

I finally realized what specific brand of resentment izzy has for Ed and Stede ļæ¼ā¦
Itās watching your ex be a better person for someone else.
Izzy has given Ed his everything for decades. He stood by Edās side, he supported him, he killed for him, he undoubtedly went through so much pain and suffering for him. And all Ed ever gave him in return was roughness and cruelty, which Izzy didnāt have any problem with, he loved ed and he was willing to take what he can get.
but suddenly thereās Stede.
Stede does essentially nothing to win over Ed, no blood, sweat, or tears, actually Stede does things that could be considered disrespectful, so Izzy waits patiently for Edās wrath, the only thing heās always been able to count on.
ā¦ but it doesnāt come. Instead Izzy watches Ed fall in love with Stede. All the soft touches and quick glances, the laughers and kindness that has never reached the light of Izzy and Edās relationship.
Izzy has to watch Ed become a better person for stede.
It reminds me a lot of the good place scene where Eleanor ļæ¼watched her mom being a good parent to another kid and she refuses to believe it.
āIzzy why canāt you believe that Edward is a good person. That heās a kind and loving partner, who genuinely cares about Stedeā
āBecause I wanted that Ed. I wanted the captain who thanked me after I almost died on a mission for him, instead of being told āto stop whining cuz itās your jobā. I wanted the Edward that was willing to make room in his life to for someone to be his equal, to co-captain with someone who deserves it. why does bonnet deserve it??
If Edward has really changed for stede bonnet, that means he was always capable of change. I just wasnāt worth changing for.ā
So anyways thatās why Izzy sets off Ed at the end of season 1, he wants to prove to himself that Ed didnāt actually change, because admitting that Ed changed was admitting ļæ¼that he wasnāt worthy of Ed changing after all that time.
Also here is that good place scene for anyone who wants to watch it

Fuck it, HH swap AU
Their core personalities and backgrounds stay the same, it's mostly a role switch
Niffty <--> Husker
Angel Dust <--> Vaggie
Alastor <--> Charlie
(the typical for swap AUs, I know,,)
Everyone else stays the same
These r edits bc I was just figuring out their designs for the AU, I'll draw them normally another time (Husker isn't here cuz I can't find a good png of the mf)
In this AU Alastor started the hotel mostly because he randomly thought up the idea once and thought, "that's fucking hilarious, I'm doing that" + a secondary sentimental reason he'd kill me for saying (he got genuinely fully invested in the cause eventually)
He advertised it on his radio show suddenly out of the blue after 7 and a half years of radio (lol) silence. Alastor still owns Husker's and Niffty's souls but they're also obviously friends (or atleast close to it)
Also he can read tarot bc why not :3
Charlie is closer to her dad in this AU and more sheltered, adopting a more aloof, smug, and dangerous persona so sinners take her seriously, she also has a very slight condescending outlook towards sinners but she's at her core still compassionate and still views them as her people and want to protect them to a certain extent, and she still thinks the Exterminations are unnecessary and cruel, but she doesn't feel like she can do much about it since according to Lucifer's stories and discouragement, she knows heaven likely wouldn't listen much if at all, but when she heard of Alastor's little project it resparked hope in her and she decided to invest in it, becoming co-owner and funder for the hotel.
Angel Dust/Anthony never made a deal with Valentino and actually stayed in his family's crime/mafia business for the 1st half of him being in Hell, but his dad is a POS and kicked him out for being gay so he started doing s3x work, and then he met Alastor after he brutalized his harassers one day, and Angel wanted to repay the favor somehow. Alastor seems interested in him so they struck a deal (not a soul deal, just a simple deal) which has Angel/Anthony is under Alastors protection in exchange for Angel/Anthony's loyalty and assistance when needed (which is a rare case so Angel still feels like he owes Alastor). They grow friendly with time, and Alastor offers to have him be patient zero for his redemption project, and he accepted.
Vaggie/Vi is still a fallen exterminstor and still met Charlie the same way she did in the show, but after that they went their separate ways and Vi finds herself making a deal with Velvette. Instead of being a pornstar like Angel in the show, she is an influencer and a rockstar/singer, she does enjoy making music and playing the guitar but Velvette tends to overwork her and make her do things she doesn't really like for views/popularity. Velvette is the nicest to Vi/Vaggie compared to with her other employees (which isn't a very highly set bar tbh) but she also frequently break her boundaries.
Vi met Charlie again during one of her concerts and they got close and started dating. (Also one sided Velvette x Vaggie is sort of slightly maybe canon in this AU bc toxic Yuri is fun (and it's only fully one sided after Charlie and Vaggie/Vi started dating))
She helps manage the hotel when needed, but is honestly only there cause Charlie is.
Not much about Niffty changes tbh (she's perfect the way she is, utterly unhinged š) she's just a bit more mellowed out and less hyper (she's still hyper just not all the time like in the show) and she's also a bartender and has surprisingly good taste for alcohol, and also frequently makes borderline poisonous drinks while experimenting, but when she gets it right it's really good. Doesn't stop the others of being terrified of her drinks though
Husker is a more smiley and charming in this AU, using a laid back attitude to put people at ease and more willing to open up to him if they need to (he used to use the information people share as blackmail when he needs to back when he was an Overlord, although he never actually needs to spread anything, just threats), and he's still very observant but he's also slightly more unhinged- He's a sort of butler/cleaner for the hotel
He still gets grumpy time to time, but mostly when he's drunk, which isn't as often anymore ever since Niffty was put in charge of the bar (understandably so)
He has a bit of an anger issue and also gets annoyed easily, and sometimes makes unhinged threats as a sort of joke (they stop being much of a joke once you genuinely piss him off)
He likes things clean and tidy because it helps him pretend to be put together
He and Alastor are a bit friendlier compared to in the show, hes still one of the few people that knows more about Alastor, though hes still bummed about the whole being owned by Alastor thing (Husker can also read tarot to a lesser extent bc Al taught him for funzies and Husker thought it's interesting)
His gambling addiction is also ever so slightly worse
#alastor hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel husk#hazbin angel dust#niffty#hazbin vaggie#swap au#hazbin hotel swap au#velvette mentioned#radiodust#chaggie#Velvette x Vaggie#seriously am i the only one who thought of this ship?#huskerdust#the ship tags are mostly just for reach but at the same time not really#i love them#btw#if u even care#UpsideDown/Swap AU

since i havent posted anything gaster related in, well, idk how long but its been a long time, i decided to prolly to give an update thats been in my au for awhile but i never actually posted abt it for some reason
so instead of two gasters now theres three. Rather than following the alternative gaster route it relates more to the shard theory now. Heres some concept art i drew recently
rough info under cut
One shard is āAsterā (first; renamed Aster because just calling him wingdings got kinda old and confusing)Ā and while he has a shard in their soul his body is a physical vessel part of the game (aka hes like a normal lightner that can interact w/ both light and dark world. I refrain from calling it the āreal worldā cuz the point of utdr is that its a game). He doesnt know this though and has no prior memories after āwaking upā for the first time in the game, but they know something is up and thinks the dark worlds has something to do with it (hence why he is holding experiments relating to them). He sucks major ass though cuz he doesnt think of them or darkners as ārealā and treats them as such bcuz he doesnt think their actions hold major consequences when interacting w/ darkners/darkworldsĀ
Second shard (middle) is currently unnamed (tho that may change) and is half physical and half part of the void (but how physical its body is fluctuates). He knows their reality is a game and is pretty content with that. He barely remembers his previous life but doesnt question it ā he knows he just is, not what, why, or how. Because of that, he doesnt care what people call him because it doesnt matter much in the grand scheme of things. While knowledgable in many things, he also easily forgets things too as he sometimes has trouble recalling certain things. He also doesnt entirely understand emotions, but it knows he likes seeing or making living things happy so he is often kind to others. He is also well intentioned and genuine, but sometimes doesnt understand what may be good for others to hear. Because of this, he is willing to casually share with others the knowledge that the world is a game to the few people who know its existence, but doesnt recognize that this may be scary information to some. It is also the same gaster that convinced Jevil the world is a game.
Third one and last shard is also nameless (again, this may change) and completely part of the voidāmeaning, in the light and dark world he doesnt exist, but can still visit them. He cannot interact w/ anything, though, which he finds frustrating esp when observing the other two gasters. He has more memories of his previous life than the second gaster, but its still few as well as scatteredāmost of the time he cant make sense of them, which is also frustrating. His form is also never constant, but he struggles w/ coping with the inconsistency of his body so he tries to form like the other two gasters whenever he can to maintain his sense of self. He also knows the world is a game (for obvious reasons) but still recognizes that consequences that occur in the game have weight ā whether negative or positive. As such, he has a stronger sense of judgement and morality when it comes to others but cannot act upon the majority of things because he barely exists ā which is also something hes frustrated with; because he cant interact w/ the world, he concludes heās incapable of guiding or helping others. The only other being he can actually communicate w/ is the second gaster, he later finds out though; as a result, he often sticks to hanging out with the second gaster for company and also because seeing Asterās actions make him feel sick.Ā Additionally, he feels a weird sense of kinship with lightners and darkners for some reason ā but especially darkners. He sorta almost sees them as his children, but doesnt entirely know why.Ā
#my art#gaster#gasterposting#inl1997#inl1997 au#body horror#body horror cw#scopophobia#scopophobia cw#ask to tag#my writing#aster#i think ive had these ideas since january or february but never had a chance to write it down till recently#i realized that aster wanting to experiment w/ darkners/darkworlds simply to prove the world is a game wasnt a strong enough motivation#so i removed him knowing its a game (at least for the most part) altogether cuz to me that makes the most sense#Considering aster plays the role as a character IN the game. If that makes sense#If he finds out its a game later i havent decided yet#But in the end#it doesnt matter that much whether he knows whether the worldās a game or not. What matters more is his ROLE in the game#and how he chooses to interact with the game.#I have another explanation as to why aster believes darkworlds are connected to him specifically but thats a post for another time#if i write more im afraid of hitting the tag limit#religious themes#my fanon things

Idk if your requests are open but if so honestly I'm dying for any sort of Sinu and/or Vasco content you'd be willing to give
šš¢š¦š©š„šš¬
Notes: I might have slipped fem-coded or fem pronouns into this. Sorry! Self conscious themes. Also, itās just a little drabble :,)
Sinu x Reader
Genre: Fluff
āI donāt have dimples!ā Sinu complains, poking the sides of his cheek roughly. He preens in the mirror for a bit, plucking at the side of his mouth with a frown. His hands brush stray strands of hair out of his eye every couple seconds.
You lounge on the sofa nearby, eyes glued to your phone. His grumbling rings in the back of your ears, and you shake your head.
āWhatās that got to do with anything?ā You ask. Sinu turns from the mirror, making a show of dramatically slouching towards you and flopping on the sofa. He pouts his lips and nuzzles into your stomach.
āDimples are really in nowadays. Yāknowā¦ with those young kids and stuff-!ā His voice is muffled in your shirt and tinted with some unfamiliar accent.
You resist rolling your eyes for the time being. Stroking his freshly-washed hair, you lean to press a kiss on his head. You sigh, āYou kinda are a young kid, Sinu. Youāre likeā eighteen? Nineteen?ā
He lets out a strangled groan and looks up at you. His dark eye sparkles. You catch sight of the goofy smile that spreads across his face. āNah. Iām getting old.ā
You roll your eyes and return your gaze to your phone. Sinu buries his face into your stomach once again. You stay that way for a while.
He scrolls on Newtube himself, eyes scouring the screen filled with attractive people. A diverse collection of strangers and videos wind up on his jumbled feed. That doesnāt matter though. He watches the things with the highest views. The videos everyone is fawning over. (He gets distracted by a couple cute dog videos which he sends to you. But anyway-)
Dimples. He sees a lot of them. The comments that flash on his screen ringing words of āheās so hotā and āsheās gorgeousā only solidify his argument.
He should get dimples. Probably. Youāre bound to love him.
Actually, Sinu isnāt self-conscious by default. Heās been told heās good looking. He thanks the people showering him with compliments and winks. Ever since he lost his eye, though, he senses his handsomeness meter has depleted. He needs some redeeming trait. Something that calls attention away from his eyeā¦ just a little. Of course youāve never even hinted that you find him imperfections unattractive. Sinuās justā¦ not the best at reading the room sometimes.
āThatās freaking expensive!ā Sinu hollers, staring down at his phone in horror. A plastic surgery add flashes on the screen. Dimple surgery. He blinks in awe.
āWhatās āfreaking expensiveā?ā You ask, crawling onto the couch beside your boyfriend. Sinu hides his phone screen from you. He aggressively wraps his arm around your shoulders as a distraction. You donāt buy it.
āAhā¦ just stuff,ā Sinu sighs. āI didnāt know you were here.ā
His attempts to dance around the subject began to tire you out. You cupped his face and stroked your thumb across his cheeks. āCļæ½ļæ½ļæ½mon Sinu. What is it?
He turns his phone screen towards you and flashes a sheepish grin. āDimple surgeryā¦?ā
You stare at his screen for a while before signing. You lay down on his chest and wrap your arms under his. He places a hand against the small of your back.
āYou know Sinu I donāt think you need it.ā
You look up at him genuinely. His reply is only a soft smile. You close your eyes. The thought of Sinu changing at all isā¦ bizarreā and anyways, you thought his smile was attractive enough on its own.
āYouāve never been trendy anywaysā¦ā you mumble.
Sinu laughs. āCuz Iām a trendsetter.ā
āOh godā¦ā
Needless to sayā¦ he didnāt really care for getting dimples anymore.

Hey so I just read your mini essay on the complexity of Crosshairās beliefs and experiences with loyalty (rip my heart out, why donāt you), and Iām curious about your insights into Hunterās personality, because out of all of them, heās the most difficult for me to get a read on. Like, he cares about Omega and the squad, but do we actually see much of his personality beyond the caregiver?
To me he doesnāt show emotional clarity/steadfastness like Wrecker, or loyalty like Crosshair, or duty like Echo, and ambition like Tech. He generally takes things in quietly and seems to have become more indecisive as the show progresses (which makes sense cuz the batch suddenly went from a 100% success rate on missions to āeverything that can go wrong does go wrongā). But I want to know Hunter better!! What are your thoughts and opinions?
Hi! I'm sorry it took me so long to reply. I just really wanted to think it through and post something in depth. Iām glad you read the Crosshair post (even if it did rip your heart out, Iām so sorry <3). To be completely honest with you I had no idea what to say about Hunter at first but Iāve given it a few days to think and I actually have a few things that I want to discuss.
Caveat that when I watch The Bad Batch Iām not usually focused on Hunter. Primarily because I just connect with the personalities of the rest of the batch more. Thereās no problem with connecting with certain characters more than others, it is just personal preference š
Regardless, I have some thoughts, and I am genuinely so excited to talk about this after giving it a few days to think about what my full opinion is.
With the caveat in mind I have some opinions on Hunter that fuel my own viewpoint on his character and how I tend to write him in my own fanfics. To me Hunter has always been veryā¦ closed. Even in the Clone Wars he tends to stand back, be silent, only really speaking to give orders, question plans, or occasionally make fun of the rest of the 99. Despite the batchās tendency to disregard orders and regulation (for better or for worse) Hunter has always thrived under direct understanding of where he stands. Thatās why he works well with people like Cody and Rex. They give him clearā¦ not exactly direction but something similar. He understands the rules. He knows how to break them. When the rules change with Order 66 he is thrust into something uncomfortable and instead of taking the problem and tackling it he just doesnāt do that. I am certainly not the first to point out that Hunter is avoidant. He always was.
He lets the batch get into fights and he doesnāt step in until he absolutely needs to. He doesnāt jump to defend immediately - typically, although there are exceptions.
(The way he defends Crosshair from Howzer in S3 E6 comes to mind. Iām still tossing that moment around as a repair attempt tbh. Theyāve fought and hashed out some of the messy bits and now they are quietly proving to each other that theyāre willing to patch things up.)
He lets his squad sort things out on their own and when it gets out of hand heāll step in. Hell, I think the best example of this is actually when Rex punches Crosshair. Hunter never actually steps into that fight and I think it is partially because of this avoidant tendency. (The rest maybe because he knew Crosshair bit off more than he could chew and he was willing to let a swift right hook teach that lesson.) We actually see Wrecker step up to defend the squad more than Hunter does. This makes sense to me - Wrecker is big and intimidating and Crosshair and Tech tend to be mouthy. Hunter might be the sergeant of this squad but he certainly isnāt the sole protector nor should he be. (Hunter is still protective - the clones we meet tend to be - just not in the exact ways the rest of them are.)
This avoidance is why we see him ignore the Crosshair situation and latch onto giving Omega a normal life. I am not going to pretend that I like the way he ignores this situation but he reacted exactly how I expected him to. He was thrust into the unknown and without the proper rules he ended up throwing all of his attention onto one thing he felt like he could control. Iāve known plenty of people who do that. Hell, Iāve done that. That doesnāt mean it is the healthiest way to deal with pain or loss or grief. Itās a coping mechanism.
Once heās sure itās the chip controlling Crosshair he really latches onto this idea that if they just take the chip out then everything will be fine and dandy. In the same way that Crosshair latches onto this idea that if the batch just joins the empire that they can be whole again.
Theyāre both wrong.
You can tell heās really internalized this idea of taking out the chip and everything fixing itself and when that dream is shattered he continues to disappear inside of himself. When things arenāt as simple as taking the chip out to bring Crosshair home heās angry that suddenly this is more than just a simple fix and he doesnāt know where he stands anymore. Thereās anger and hurt directed at him and the rest of the batch and he gets defensive because he thinks there shouldnāt be. He gets increasingly angry and much more confrontational than weāve seen him be with Crosshair so far. Another worldview shattered, another chip in his already fragile armor, another reason to be fucking pissed. His anger at Crosshair finally pushed him into action, away from avoidance. Is it healthy? Still no. But none of them are really experts at coping. At least heās letting it out. At least it is in the open. At least we are seeing his emotions bubble over onto the surface. That is what makes me personally interested. Those messy, painful, unhelpful emotions wreacking havoc and making things worse.
We see Hunter buckle down and let his anger fester. I think he continues to do that all the way through season 2 and his conflict with Echo isnāt helping. I have an entire post somewhere in my drafts about Echo and Hunterās joint leadership but Iāll boil it down to a few points to focus them on Hunter.
Hunter needs a second in command especially now. He isnāt at his best as a leader and maybe thatās not really what the batch needs right now. The GAR is gone. Their lives are upside down. He needs support but he wonāt ask for it - stubborn as hell he is. Thatās why Echo really helps. I rewatched the seasons specifically to focus on Echo and I think we can see signs of his and Hunterās joint leadership from the very beginning even before Hunter needs him for support. In a world of uncertainty you need someone to hold on to, someone to help make decisions. His conflict with Echo in season two is just making him more unsteady. The prospect of losing someone else and losing his voice of reason is wearing on him and it only gets worse as time goes on. Sure, he knows they can get by without Echo around but I donāt think he wants that. He was leaning on Echo and once they started disagreeing he realized that maybe he was going to either have to open himself up to relying on everyone else or close up again.
Iād wager that he chose the latter for the most part.
Hunter doesnāt like relying on others. He has this big idea in his head that heās meant to be the one who has it down butā¦ come on. None of us can do that. Iāve seen a lot of people compare Hunter to an oldest sibling and as the youngest of four Iām not sure I really have much insight into that particular notion but as the sibling who took on the greatest responsibilities in my home I feel this tug of responsibility to the detriment of yourself and others and I see you, Hunter. I see you and you need to stop.
Maybe thatās why I get so frustrated with Hunter in particular. I want him to grow out of this. I want him to change and develop and be angry and show his care more often. Thatās part of why I loved S3 E5 so much. Hunter got fucking pissed. He was angry and he let it out and he shoved Crosshair and he showed just how badly he was hurt by everything. Fuck I love that. This is what I wanted to see. Finally heās forgetting to keep it together and in front of Crosshair he is finally willing to lose his temper. Something really tells me that they used to lose their temper at each other because it was safe to. They clearly donāt know how to talk about their emotions and sort it out like many of us know or learn to - that will hopefully come with time and maturity - but they sure did know how to yell and use their strength against each other. So they fight. And they hurt each other. Then they make up and move forward because what else are they meant to do? Theyāre going to forgive each other. Itās how it always is - a given.
Hunterās relationship to loyalty is not anywhere near the same as Crosshairās but all of the batch end up having some relationship with it one way or another. Thereās an excellent post floating around tumblr somewhere and I couldnāt find it to save my life (if you know what Iām talking about and can find the post feel free to link it somewhere) but it says something about how eventually the batch is going to embody the idea that they ādonāt leave their own behindā because they simply havenāt remained true to that sentiment yet - through lack of choice or active avoidance. Theyāve repeated it a few times and yet the sentiment feels flat as they keep having to leave members of their squad behind or let them walk away themselves. Eventually theyāre going to have to prove this sentiment and only then do I really think the showās true theme can be accomplished.
I want to touch briefly on Hunterās relationship to touch because I think it comes into play here (and it is admittedly one of my favorite things about him.) He uses touch a lot more than I think we give him credit for. Yes heās closed off emotionally and heās not great at talking but he does use touch a lot. He uses it with Echo for reassurance and as a factor to convince him of things often. A plan Echo doesnāt like? Shoulder touch. Echo is still new and Hunter is telling him heāll get used to things? Shoulder touch. Saying goodbye, serious chat, acknowledging his worries? Touch touch touch. This man doesnāt always know how to use his words but heās good at putting what he means into a physical reminder. What does the touch say? Loads of things. That heās there, that what he is saying is not meant to hurt, that heās pissed, that heās listening. He does it with Wrecker and Omega and - thinking of their fight - Crosshair but I canāt actually think of an instance where he uses touch with Tech. I could have just missed it so let me know if there are scenes where he does this. Heās relied on physical reminders for so long that maybe words justā¦ arenāt what he uses to communicate. You can feel the way his mood shifts when him and Echo are disagreeing by the way he moves him physically. Itās really those moments that I feel Hunter shines most because those moments are where he feels most open as a character - at least from my perspective.
I use his relationship to touch when I write him and, specifically, when that touch is rejected, what does that feel like for him? When I write him I look at it from a perspective of how he interacts with the world and what he thinks he can give to it. When his most comfortable form of communication - that shoulder touch we all tease about - is rejected and he canāt rely on that anymore what does that look like? Could just be the fact that I lean very heavily towards touch as a form of communication and repair but I focus on it a lot and it deserves a mention while talking about Hunter.
In truth, Hunter is hard for me. I see the avoidance, I see the anger, I see his pain, and yet I still have this feeling that I donāt really see him. What does Hunter really want? Because weāve only ever seen him talk about what he wants to do for other people. But what motivates Hunter? We can say that itās keeping his people safe or that itās settling down or even just boil it down to Omega but what is actually under the surface there? For everyone else I can pretty much pinpoint what it is that motivates them but Hunter is a blank area for me. He says what motivates him but I am much more inclined to believe there is something else really eating at him underneath it all. I also want to suggest that maybe he hides behind doing things for other people to avoid feeling selfish. If heās doing all of this to protect his squad then heās not doing all of this because he wants to and itās not a selfish decision. While I donāt think finding somewhere safe to settle down is selfish I get the feeling that maybe Hunter thinks it is for him specifically. Like he is not allowed to but maybe if itās about everyone else then itās fine. Itās always āOmega deserves betterā and āyou betrayed us.ā Never āthis is what I want and this is how I feel.ā
Crosshairās value system is very strict and at times harsh and unmoving. Echo has a sense of duty and protection that is strong enough to push him into action. Wrecker is motivated by the thrill of things but also by supporting his loved ones. Tech is curious and intelligent, seeking out new experiences and an interest in preservation. But what is Hunterās motivation aside from āsettle downā? Thatās a goal, sure, but Iām not sure itās really the right word to place on what he really wants deep down outside of what he wants for other people. Iām not sure I really know the answer to that question.
To make a long post even longer Iād like to see what Hunter wants when it is not connected to his service to other people. What is it that fuels him? Is it the serene calmness of safety that he craves? Being free from worry? Is it the freedom to make choices that he never would have gotten in the GAR? Iām almost inclined to say itās a bit of everything but I still donāt really know and I would love to actually hear what people think the baseline motivator is for him personally.

AU idea
Imagine, the cast but as incubi, succubi and angels.
Mainly Teo and Rendacted as incubi that operate differently
NSFW MENTION, MINORS DNI
While Rendacted stalks you and becomes like his canon self a total yandere over you, the one being that made him fall in love, adjusting himself (mind and body) to whatever you desire; Teo just goes on and seduces you, becoming equally obsessive, not knowing that he actually fell for someone.
A battle would commence in which both would court you in different ways.
Rendacted
Changes persona and appearance based on your type and deepest fantasies
Genuinely cares for you
His main "job" of being an incubus isn't as important anymore
Just wants you to be his
Will mark you all over to ensure ppl know you're being claimed
If successful in seducing you expect more romantic sex, rather than the rougher pace incubi typically have
Will absolutely melt under your touch
"yer.. s'good for me angel.."
Will absolutely treat you like a prince/ss in bed
Willing to learn about more human stuff to adjust to living with you
Just genuinely takes care of you
Still has that lost puppy energy as Ren, becomes an annoyed cat when Rendacted
Still murderous
More openly aggressive than his canon self
Can manipulate you easier and will appear in your dreams constantly
Teo
Wants to be your addiction
Will go full incubus mode and become your fantasy instead of molding himself into yours
Disguise is pretty much like his canon self just more sugar daddy-ish (and more mature)
Dates already start with a makeout session
No he does not care that there are ppl watching
Will go full on rough and possessive on you in bed
Watch the bed break in half ngl
Won't ever admit he fell for someone so good luck having to listen to him be obviously jealous but not admitting it EVER
Sex is the solution to everything
You mad? Angry sex
You sad? Sad sex
You're tired from too much sex? ... well then he might make an exception and actually just hold you
Is way more clingy than canon Teo cuz he craves your body heat on him
Will mark you as well and show every little hickey or bite off
Buys you skimpy (but classy) clothes to show said marks off
"C'mon.. Y'don't need anyone besides me.."
Will show up more in person, he just monitors your dreams to make sure he left an... impression in you

SlugTerra Au Explanation! (Kinda told in a story way-)
Alright- so Hereās the explaining about The Au, kinda going more into it, And what changes and stuff, but only for the present stuff, basically this Au is a slightly more peaceful slugterra, the 99 caverns sinceā¦yknow- no ghouls? Expect for the ones in the eastern cavern cuz yknow- Emperor taking over and stuffā¦(Iām still developing this Au a bit! So still figuring things out I guess-)
@ariaterramoon Iām glad your loving the Au! Iām actually very happy! I know I already said it but thank you!! Love your artwork!
āØš
So, now hereās The Info part! ( this is gonna be a little long-)
. . .
So, While being trained by unbeatable master, after a duel, taking a break, Thaddius is slightly injured, on his hand and Will happens to notice, a small little argument that was started by Thaddius pursues, with Thaddius claiming he was fine and didnāt need a Shaneās help, though after a display of genuine worry and concern by Will, it makes Thaddius suprised, as heās used to no one caring about him and looking after himself.
He finally allows Will to help him, even if heās slightly annoyed.
After this, a small conversation starts with them, and Will offers if he wants to be friends, Thaddius is hesitant, and confused, as heās never had a friend before, but then decides to accept.
Their friendship-
After some time in training, Will discovers that Thaddius is mostly alone, having no place to stay, since he usually just figures something out, Will suggests that he could stay with him back at the Shane hideout, wanting to offer him shelter, but also thinking it would be good to have company, Thaddius thinks itās pointless, since he can manage by himself and dosenāt need it, but will insists, and after enough nagging, Thaddius finally accepts. He seems like he doesnāt care, but once he sees Will smile and immediately lead him by grabbing his hand, He sneaks a smile, but hides it before Will noticed.
(He dosenāt like showing smiles, he feels weird about it-)
Meeting jimmo shane-
Of course it does not go well, once at the hideout, and some time passing with Will introducing a Video game to thadidus, and what it is, jimmo walks in, Will takes this moment to introduce the two, Unaware of how they previously met, jimmo and Thaddius do not get along, especially thaddius, still having that anger for being locked away for 6 months, while jimmo just thinks heās still a criminal- bad guy yknow? Thaddius TRIES To get along with jimmo, just for Willās sake so despite the tense tension, after a while of staying with him, Thaddius feels like he has a home kinda, for once he doesnāt feel alone, because he has someone, someone who cares about him.
š„²
So bassicly Thaddius learns to have fun, he grows accustomed to this, and actually learns to smile naturally, heās still bit of a grumpy tough dude, but heās more caring- And kinda gets worried when Will gets injured or anything, since wills like the only person heās got-
Selection:
When will is picked, instead of it going like how cannon went, Thaddius feels worried of not seeing Will in a while, but with some reassurance from Will, he calms down, and feels a bit proud of him, they say goodbye as Will walks up the stairs, while Thaddius heads off, but not to slag rock cavern, not to viggo dare, to what he calls home, The home where he will wait for Will.
When will finishes his training, they reunite again. And they share a good hug, they were not enemies or rivals anymore, Thaddius was fine with that, and Will was happy with that, they share a friendly duel, just for old times sake.
(WOO OK- thatās out the way- so hereās some things about the Au!)
Will dosenāt call Dr.Blakk that, he just calls him Thaddius- as dr.Blakk dosenāt like it when he uses the new title of name, since he sees Will a good friend-
Tad does not exist in this Au-yeah so Thaddius was just focused on his projects and work that he didnāt have time to yknow, fall in love, get children, he didnāt really have interest in that-
š
Twist is not evil in this Au! When the incident happens where his dad dies, Will Is unsure of what to do, and he lets dr.Blakk take care of him, after a bit, dr.Blakk gives him off to a lovely couple who are happy to take care of twist, so twist bassicly found a family to take care of him- (so in the future he dosenāt hate the Shaneās- still kinda nervous due to yknow the incident that happened with his father-)
Of course Dr.Blakk dosenāt ghoul slugs in this Au- he just tries to make them stronger in other wayās, yknow increase their strengths, while working on other things- (so using his power for good-) (he still kinda dosenāt really care about slugs, but heās less heartless this time thanks to Will)
Dr.Blakk found burpy, and gave him to will- (Dr.Blakk and burpy still got a bit of beef with eachotherā¦yeah-)
Dr.Blakk sort of knew Eli when he was little, Will told him about the secret of the Surface and as promised, dr.Blakk kept secret of it- so eli treats Dr.Blakk like family while Dr.Blakk deals with him like an annoyed tired dad-
š
Dr.Blakk was the one who trained Eli once he arrived in slugterra, so yeah he got good training- and is more prepared than he was in the show- (still a clumsy doofus-)

fucking love the new chapter, so much good yummy dialogue and well done exposition.
also the zenin being fine with what they thought was happening to megumi??!!! like obviously we know gojo would never even think about it but the fact that they were willing to just let it happen so that they didnāt have to deal with what toji did??!!! do megumi or tsumiki know?? do nanami or shoko know?
my honest guess is that the reason why they would be so okay with that they thought was happening is because they genuinely donāt think itās a big deal cuz shit like that happens in the compound itself. or theyāre just disgusting rats who should have their children taken away from them.
*****TW for discussions of rape, non-con, and CSA*****
Nanami and Shoko know.
Tsumiki and Megumi donāt. They were both really little when this was all going down, and no one wanted to be like āhey GUESS what the people who are actively trying to get full custody of your brother thought Gojo was doing to him all this time and were super fine with it.ā After, they tried to bury the hatch and play nice to make the custody agreement work as best they could, and after the custody agreement went to shit, Megumi was already so hurt by the Zenin that no one saw any point about making him feel worse about them. It wouldnāt have surprised him to learn thatās what they thought, though, nor would it surprise him to learn that they didnāt care. He fundamentally views himself as disposable to the Zenin, and this fits that worldview.
Nanami and Shoko know because they were part of the negotiations when this went down. They were operating as a team.
In my mind, when Tsumiki and Megumi were first adopted, before the Zenin realized Megumi had the Ten Shadows, they really were the closest they had been since Riko died. They all came together for the kids. They were starting to be happy again. They werenāt fighting so much and they had actual hope for the future.
Then the Zenin found out Megumi had the Ten Shadows, and things went to shit.
To me, the catalyst for everything going south was actually when they took off with Megumi and Tsumiki. The Zenin werenāt budging on anything less than full custody with no contact from Gojo. They were willing to go to war about it, even if they were guaranteed to lose. Their pride was freshly wounded, and the fact that this was the third time (to them) that the Gojo had taken the Ten Shadows from them was too much to bear. The higher ups were just content to let clan infighting play out, especially since I think itās canon that theyāre mostly Kamo. They were going to let the entire drama play out and see if they could leverage the Zenin and Gojo attacking each other into more power for themselves, and then Gojo fucking took off with the Ten Shadows and Shoko. Like, Nanami was there too, but he was really the one who had the unique skillset to offer. They didnāt care about losing him the way that they cared about losing the others. His skill set wasnāt irreplaceable the same way the others were.
At the end of the day, power is capital in this world, and Gojoās got more power than anyone. Megumi, supposedly, will be in the same boat as him one day. Shoko is the only healer they have.
The higher ups wanted Gojo to burn bridges with his custody battle. They wanted him to use up his goodwill and influence and leave him vulnerable to them swooping in when he had weakened his own position to take advantage. What they did not want was for him to up and leave with other irreplaceable members of their society.
Gojo and the others leaving made them take very constructive efforts to isolate each of them and break them. Gojo was overworked, frustrated, and never given a break or anyone to share his load. Shoko was supplied with harder drugs and pushed to take them. Nanami was left alone on campus more often than not, constantly reminded of his own losses and ineptitudes, always made to feel helpless to change what was going on around him. It tore them apart, eventually, and the higher ups spent months to accomplish exactly that. It took a long time to rebuild.
But when negotiations with the Zenin were happening, they hadnāt been shattered yet. They were a team. And they handled that moment as a team.
Honestly, when they found out thatās what they thought gojo had taken custody for, it really was a big āwhat are we even doing this for moment.ā They almost pulled the plug then and there. And when theyāre torturing themselves over how they hadnāt didnāt, this is one of the big moments they come back to. Like, Naobito offered to Gojoās face to just find someone who looked like Megumi to replace him like they were exchanging a fucking T-shirt at the mall.
Gojo already was completely enchanted with Megumi and Tsumiki at this point. They all were. Those were their little village babies and they loved them so, so much. It was an absolute slap in the face to insinuate Gojo only was taking care of them because he was a pedophile going after megumi, and it sort of tormented them to think that he could have been and the zenin would have been fine with it.
See, I think the narrative totally has the space to interpret that as it being an issue on the zenin compound. Inbreeding is already a thing there, and thereās one panel in the manga that arguably implies that Naoya assaulted Mai. However, I personally included the detail because 1) I thought it was the sort of propaganda that the Zenin would spread about Gojo, and 2) it really emphasised that they Zenin genuinely do not love Megumi outside of his technique.
Like. Gojoās the favoured son of their biggest rival. He just waltzed in and took one of their kids, in a society where kids are considered property. They wanted to slander him as much as possible, and āyou know why he really wants himā is low hanging fruit. It sort of blew up in their faces when Megumi went from their least to most important member on the turn of a dime, and all of their members started freaking out, but the clan elders pivoted that hard into āhe obviously took him because he was stealing our ten shadows againā and that became the narrative.
The second reason is that it leaves no doubt that they donāt actually love Megumi.
Thereās no actual familial bond that makes them want him. If that existed even a little bit, they would have tried to help him before they found out his technique when they thought he desperately needed it. They didnāt. They laughed about it. He was their blood and they thought he was vulnerable and hurt, and they did not care. This is not about love or family bonds. They only want him because of his technique.
I do think that the zenin do still genuinely believe that Gojo will or has sexually abused Megumi, but I donāt think they think of it in terms of sexual abuse. This is because they think Gojo will do to him what theyād probably one day do to Megumi if they had him.
Techniques are passed through blood. Power is passed through blood. That means megumi is someone who they likely want to have kids, who would then be raised to be clan leaders. Thereās value in making sure he has kids, and I just donāt see them taking āactually no, I hate you and donāt want to have kids with my literal cousinsā as an answer. And I donāt think the Zenin would think of it as sexual abuse or rape if they took matters into their own hands. Itās about procreation. The mechanics are a means to an end.
I think the Zenin expect the Gojo to have Megumi procreate with members of their clan in hopes of one day stealing the ten shadows from their bloodline. I also think they have active plans to kill any kids Megumi had with Gojoās bloodline, if they werenāt able to steal them back.
At the same time, I think that if Megumi did ever get taken back by the zenin clan, theyād eventually do something themselves to ensure his bloodline continues. Like, I want to be enormously clear that that did not happen in the recent five day span that they had Megumi. But I do think theyād cross that line eventually. Because even apart from procreation, itād be a reason to force Megumi to stay.
Like. Most of the clan is deluded about him. Not all of them are. They want him to stay and lead the clan, mind, but they donāt think heās going to suddenly wake up and love them when they spend most of their time beating him. They have the kid whoās supposed to one day be one of the most powerful beings in the world, and they kicked the shit out of him. He openly hates them. They need something to keep Megumi in line when heās too powerful for them to keep down, and kids would do that.
He canāt leave the clan. Heād be leaving the kids behind. Even if he took them with him, what if they donāt want to go? What if they donāt want to leave their mother? What if they donāt want to leave the only life theyād ever known? How could he even provide for one or more children without the Zenin when heās presumably been locked up on the compound for years and has no resources apart from them?
The only way they have ever gotten him to cooperate is by holding Tsumiki over his head. They know they can put him on a leash if they get people he loves, but they donāt want him to have Tsumiki. And if they donāt have a more acceptable alternative, they can make one.
Him having kids in the clan may keep him from running. It may keep him from turning around and killing all of them. It would boost clan morale, because the ten shadows blood was continuing through the Zenin. I donāt see this as the line they arenāt willing to cross. And I donāt see them losing sleep over it either.
#sea glass gardens#they are disgusting rats who should not ever have access to children by the way#theyāre bad parents#I just canāt see the zenin actually flinching from this#it goes too far in their favor#and they just donāt care about megumi.#I personally think theyād go there eventually

Uhhhhh now I wanna talk to them and run awayyyyyyy it is so hard to deal with Crimson cause one minute they are the worst and then another you feel bad for them ugh how does dust deal with them
Sorry for changing my answer so much lol
dust doesn't.
he just kills them. Painfully.
though... there are rare timelines where the two would laugh at the irony or just...
collapse in a puddle of blood and dust out of exhaustion. in those times where neither can fight there's a brief solidarity.
a faint sense of understanding.
he doesn't give crimson much room.
and crimson has given up all hope on apologizing for the things they did. WHO WOULD APOLOGIZE? what they did it literally unforgivable so why even bother?
they don't want dust to forgive them either. again. they're secretly hoping he'd defeat them but then when they feel lonely they'd come back alive again.
they want to break it, only to end up repairing to break it.
but because it's just all beyond repair they mask their pain by acting like jerk.
if you see crimson threatening you or lashing out without reason they're in pain and are trying to HIDE their sadness by masking it with anger.
they don't mean the things they say during the panic. but if it's to cover up their soft spot? they're willing to stab anyone in the back for that facade. make them think they're evil cuz that's what THEY'RE trying to convince themselves as.
trying to drown what little sense of guilt is SCREAMING at them chocking it to death by self sabotage.
they're evil. it's a self fulfilling prophecy so who cares?
it's why if I was reader I'd try not to fight back and CALM them down.
sometimes people become irrational and when they regain composure they'll only regret it.
crimson has no reason to have self retraint because they were SO used to undoing their mistakes.
their brain is wired differently because of how little consequence they faced.
so it's difficult for them to think ahead or control their temper.
kinda like a spoiled brat who never had to wait for anything. always had power. and it spoiled them. they can change they CAN learn. but it's going to take time and patience. it's going to need trust and empathy.
and just affirmation isn't enough. it'd take actual years for player to psychologically adapt to a linear time scape.
their mind is still semi stuck in a bubble of unreality and "no one will remember me"
if you offer a helping hand though, without actual bias they WILL feel moved.
might not act on it at first but you WILL genuinely make them feel things underneath that sharp sadistic grin.
they just want to be remembered in the end. they just convinced themselves it's better if they go down as the bad guy.
#they're tragic wjat can i say#this isn't to say you don't have a right to leave them though#you are well within reason to cut them off

So true!!!, it's true that they only say those things because they hate the character but what bothers me the most about those types of people is that when you tell them that they are wrong they tell you "it's manga canon" and I'm like what? Nowhere in the manga do they tell us that he's a fascist, rather the opposite...
They say āmanga canonā but then canāt pull up any actual proof which is why they just resort to āitās manga canonā
Itās not
Itās Canon that Konoha is built off of a very broken system (war) and thus even though itās Hashiramaās dream for a better system it ends up simply becoming a militeristic state
Which is part of a fascist state, but not an entire fascist state
Things that are manga canon
1) Kakashi becomes a shinobi who refuses to kill unless his opponent refuses to give up/stand down (Land if Waves arc)
2) kakashi will stand up to/turn his back to the village if his precious people are in danger or in need of help (walking away from tsunade to go after sasuke and naruto, Taking Naruto out of the village during the five kage summit, telling sai to keep secrets from Danzo, the named Hokage at that moment)
3) Kakashi showed interest in finding out more about the massacre (and then was never shown doing anything cuz kishi threw everyone into a war and then just had Naruto pinky promise itachi heād keep the secret) showing that he was willing to see that his higher ups had done something very VERY wrong but never actually giving us follow through on that because it would involve actually tackling the issue
And if we go outside the manga (since the manga does skip a lot) we get MORE
1) kakashi going against hiruzenās orderās and into direct conflict with a village elder to save Tenzo
2) Kakashi being the Hokage to make a no kill rule (book)
3) Kakashi being willing to be hated for āgoing against the old waysā because he knows the system needs to change (Book)
And like was it enough? No. But itās proof Kakashi was not a fascist leader
A facist leader would not want people to question them, where Kakashi is open to being questioned and challenged
A facist leader would suppress rebellions and challenges (like hiruzen with the Uchiha) which we never see Kakashi do and have no reason to believe heād do given that even when he does try to change someone mind he does so through speaking to them not trying to physically beat them down into submission.
A fascist leader would focus all of their attention on keeping a militeristic state, but Kakashi changes the focus to a more economical state where the villages rely on each other for trade rather than war
Kakashi is very much raised in what can be called a Fascist state in many ways (five years old soldiers anyone???) but even by the time Tsunade takes over that starts to change. Tsunade never had time to change everything, but when Kakashi took over as Hokage genuinely changes were being made toward something better
Something perfect? No. The writers still wanted to make Boruto so everything couldnāt change as much as we wanted
But something better for sure

Please do!
ok in some parts of this it kinda suggest suicide and has a lot of mentions of manipulation so if u don't like reading things like that yaaa dont read itšš also this is a very rushed explanation about luanso dont mind the english errors
luan absolutely hates crowley's guts, and the reason is because crowley broke his trust and played him like a fool
when luan woke up in twisted wonderland he was panicked because he has a hard time getting used to big changes and he is away from his twin sister which is a terrible combination, but crowley actually tried to calm him down so they could try to understand the situation.
when crowley left him at ramshackle he was worried but he pushed his concerns away because maybe re other dorms were full, he'd trust crowley and ignore the things crowley would do because he genuinely thought crowley was a good person and was messing up just because he had a lot on his plate, and that made him get on a sort of contract with crowley in which he'd take a bit of crowley's duties in exchange of a bit of extra money so he could yk EAT and TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF. that worked for about like a week before crowley started to take advantage of luan, making the work he had to do way more than he was paid for, and would excuse it as him always having to re-check he did for crowley because luan would always leave some mistakes, which he apologized for and went for the staff to ask for help because he genuinely thought crowley had a point, the staff had warned luan that this agreement didn't really work out for him and crowley was the one getting the most out of it but luan still had hopes in crowley (he's stupid)
slowly hed begin to see that crowley was genuinely a bad person, more specifically when crowley starts to give him even more work and pay barely nothing for the amount he gave luan and not do anything to find a way for he to return home. his breaking point was when crowley started to threaten to stop paying luan and let him and grim starve or even kick them both out of night raven college, crowley knew he could always use it to manipulate luan because luan is aware that he doesn't exist outside of night raven college, he doesn't have any documents so he wouldn't be able to get a job or get help, he'd die. luan had thought sometimes of simply leaving, giving up, he was always so stressed and overworked, he started to question if it was really worth it, that day he snapped at crowley and said hed never do anything to him again and that he was willing to be kicked out if it meant he wouldn't have to deal with crowley's bullshit ever again, and crowley gave him a day to rethink his decision.
at first he was 100% sure of it, his mental health had deteriorated and he was exhausted, living like this wasn't worth it. but when he discovered he was all grim ever had he knew he couldn't simply leave, he knew grim wouldn't be able to take it. he went to crowley's office and apologized to him, which was absolutely humiliating and continued working for crowley, this time he'd have to do even more as he had "publicly humiliated crowley and made him seem like a bad person" (cuz he snapped at crowley in front of the students)
luan no longer holds any respect towards crowley and has been seen multiple times insulting him in the worst ways possible, but never to his face, that's because deep down luan recognizes that in NRC he has no power, that his position was insignificant as were his needs and opinions.
the only people that truly know how badly luan and grim are treated by crowley is epel and floyd, who are extremely close to luan and his most trusted friends, both of them wanted to do something about it but were asked to just pretend that they didn't know about the situation happening by luan himself.

Koisenu Futari Ep 1 ( SPOILERS)
Yes, I watched the first episode!!
Wow! It's so good, and silly, I want to continue it. Granted I don't have a lot of exposure to LGBT media like this so I get easily excited, but still.
The humor is pretty good and floats with the lighthearted setting. Honestly being used to Indian TV shows, the subtleties of this Japanese one is surprising at times. No dramatic music ? No music AT ALL in one scene? Woah Bob!!!! Still, I feel the TV show element of it but the way it's understated also goes well with the tone. Must say this is the first Japanese live action TV show I'm watching of this nature, so I'm not entirely familiar to make internal genre comparisons, this is more of first impressions. In general, while it picks up heavy topics, it managed to balance with the light tone and order-of-events-happening. I didn't feel awkward about it even once so far.
Speaking of, WOW, I feel like you can tell whoever wrote this is very sympathetic and sensitive to the community they're trying to show. It just feels natural. And so many things they touched-- the feeling of your peers moving on ahead while you're in crisis about your own life, not feeling like a complete person, the talk about marriage, not wanting to be assumed to be living a life alone, etc....Admittedly I'm not very familiar with the aromantic community either, but from the time I'm in the asexual one( which these characters are as well), I recognize these deep-rooted concerns. I like how they actually show it seriously, Sakuko is feeling there is something fundamentally wrong with her.
And of course...the joy when she finds another person like her!!! š„²( single tear emoji)
Let me backtrack a bit before we get there. There's a subplot with Sakuko( one of our MCs, a cheery woman who works on the upper rungs of a departmental store) and her high school friend Chizuru. I like how the characterization worked there, with Chizuru. She wasn't an asshole or anything, infact their friendship is so good she is willing to move in with Sakuko in a new apartment. But another life event occurs which unfortunately results in her leaving Sakuko behind with hurt feelings on both sides. I think it's a good example of a situation where life just...happens and things getting messy in a way you didn't think. Also people with good intentions giving them out in the wrong way. It gives a realistic feeling.
I don't want this to be Super Long, actually I start out with a lot of detail usually and then I cut down, that's how I write in my diary and I don't have like a lot of thoughts yet anyway. Just the first episode, everyone.
So I'll cut back to the other guy who is like her. He's an older man, Takahashi, which I'm getting is his last name actually ( but I'll address him as such until Sakuko changes her terms of address cuz I got used to that RN) and he arranges the vegetables in their store. He seems to have an affinity for cabbages and works with them, he's very blunt but quick to apologize as well. I like how both of them seem socially awkward in some way to me X) (X face with smile emote )
He also runs a blog which seems duel general-lifestyle talk and also thoughts about being aroace. Through this, the MCs have a definite meeting outside previous encounters.
Love the distilled kindness in the last scene here. And the setting! A very personable house his looked like, full of trinkets, a bit cramped. The way he said that whatever someone's sexuality is, not wanting to be alone isn't anything selfish. Her asking him if he can be her family without love! She's just so sjjsjsksksk. Genuine. It was sweeter than honey I might say. The teasers for the next episode were cheesy as hell and I'm looking forward to it haaha
Additional thoughts: Sakuko's sense of dress is very cozy. All cardigans and big pants and such.
For some reason the whole episode felt a touch off with the pacing, but maybe that's just me. Episode's gotta end on something to keep you waiting afterall.

Started blossom because of you and now I am pleading. BEGGING for some headcanons about henry, fluffy smutty both idc anything š©
Ooooh bitch! You came to the right fucking place Anon! I love Henry and adore writing him! I actually talked with Kate Winborne or @xmichaelmyers herself and she gave me some brand new headcannons that were adopted IMMEDIATELY! SO allow me to share!
Letās kick it off with some of my SFW, Fluffier headcannons.
-This man is fucking clingy. He is very fucking clingy. You want him hanging off of you in bed if he gives the slightest fuck about you? Cuz he will!Ā
-Needy, needy, needy. You want a whiney phone call when he is drunk and talking about things he likes and/or misses about you? You get that too.
-He will remember some small and innocuous thing about you and it is so sweet it genuinely shocks you, the kinda thing like remembering how you like your coffee or your fave kinda dessert from some place, you donāt think heād remember something like that but again, if he cares about you, he would.
-Sense memory in this man is off the fucking charts, if he smells a scent he reminds or associates with you, he will get just a touch weak in the knees.
-SFW but also kinda creepy, but hey that is Henry all over, man is totally the type to steal some stuff from you as a little memento, I am thinking maybe a chapstick he knows you love. Picture Henry applying said chapstick, eyes closed, thinking about you and thank me laterrrr.
Okay, enough of the slightly sweet, letās get into the dirty, this is ME after all!
NSFW.
-He would steal more than just chapstick though. Makeup, underwear, STOCKINGS- just about anything, the fucking freak.
-The guy would get way, way too focused on trying to cum to the point he wouldnāt be able to, so he swaps to angrily eating you out, trying to cover up and DENY the fact he canāt cum cuz heās old and ends up accidentally creaming the fucking sheets oh my GOD-
-Will be out and about you and it seems as if he is listening to you talk about something but instead he is thinking about how he would kill you, just cannot stop himself.Ā
-Drives you out, late at night to a seemingly abandoned parking lot and makes you get out while he sits in the car and you strip in the light of the head lights for his amusement, but wait! Thereās more! He turns off the car, plunges you into darkness, and lets the tension get real fucking intense before he pounces. Exhibistionist man would fuck you on the hood of his car.Ā
-No doubt this dude loves head, adores some real messy sloppy toppy, but the guy wouldnāt force your head down, shocker I know, heād keep his hands off, in the air, by the headboard, just letting you do your thing but acting like you are fucking killing himmm with your mouth.Ā
-Things I would recommend doing to Henry Williamson: Making him finish on himself. I am talking giving some great fucking head and when he is close pull back and get him the last bit of the way there with your hand and make him spill on his own stomach, do it, I fucking dare you.Ā
-Better yet, try to snowball this man and see where it gets you, I beg.Ā
-Back to this guyās exhibitionism and I think he would be ready and willing to fuck you jussssst about anywere that was out of the way enough, a clothing changing room in a store is one of my faves to consider.Ā
Sooo these are some thoughts, hope this helps satisfy you babe!

Ok going insane crazy about BitB again so have a Rachel Rand theory thing (lots of spoilers)
Ok so so so at the very end of ep4, the hive queen agrees with Rand that āRachel was the best of usā and then proceeds to say essentially, when humanity inevitably destroys itself, that Rachel will live on because of her kindness to āusā. WHAT DOES THAT SOUND LIKE? Bro did Rachel make a deal with the eldritch entity??? What would drive her to do that. Did she feel that ignored as to willingly join something bigger than herself? Was Rand that bad of an older brother? Because I canāt imagine so, I truly believe while certainly lacking in some departments, he was not THAT bad. Or maybe was this kindness that the hive speaks of just in her nature? Like nothing to spur it but her own willingness to reach out, eldritch being or not. What was the eldritch being before Rachel? Similar to the bug form we see at the end? How did she come across it, cuz like think about it. The night of the party, Rachel leaves and no one follows her, we donāt really know where sheās going or how she felt. We donāt know if she left the party just cuz she was bored, or if she was upset. Then the same night, out in the bayou she must have run into this thing. Mentally or physically? Did it try to talk to her or lure her or did she just find it by happenstance? Did she know about it before the night she disappeared? Iām so so curious how that interaction went down, because just all the phrasing around it makes it look like a kind and willing thing that Rachel did. And that act is what causes her to become hive queen and start this whole thing, start the bugging and building. Iām just so curious why she would do that, because we see what we can assume is her āreal herā āreal soulā talking to Rand when the hive queen lets Rachel alone speak. I believe thatās truly part of her at least, in the same way Kian got words and Rolan is Rolan. And she sounds genuinely upset, upset that Rand doesnāt want to stay with her, that heās always gone and that he always lies and she says all this and I feel like there definitely is some manipulation and bend from the hive that makes it so personal and accusing at Rand, perhaps because of how long sheās been queen of it, but I think that her feelings are there and she does feel betrayed. Which makes you wonder how neglected she felt, tho we know she was the golden child between her and Rand, where do these feelings stem from? The Hiveās goals seem to be more about human nature and wanting to create rather than destroy, what they propose is a salvation to the destructive human tendencies by assimilating everyone into the hive and ending conflict, was this something that Rachel agrees with? Would that be a motivator and if so what kind of exposer to human conflict would cause her to make a deal this drastic? The news maybe? Or something in Galloway she witnessed? Also not to mention her form doesnāt change at all, what was hanging from the bug queen could be her actual animated and preserved corpse (like how rolans corpse would be a 14yr old) or a rebuilding of her that never aged from 10 yrs old despite like Rolanās bug body aging normally.. We know so little but I think this is a huge thing I havenāt seen talked about yetā¦ i wanna hear yāallās theories there are so many ways this could be interpreted

And itās totally fine to be sad or feel whatever, because change can be sad! Or annoying. But Iām just seeing some fans being likeā¦ actually mad at Matty. And Iām just likeā¦ what do you want from him? We know he loves us (he tells us at every show), so if he made this choice it was because he looked at the options and decided this was best for him. It feels like some people would rather he push through and let his mental health suffer so they can have funny instagram stories. It just icks me. Like heās a personā¦ he deserves to be happy and healthy. And I for one am totally willing to sacrifice my part of the deal (seeing him online, fan interactions outside of shows) so that he can have that.
Btw this isnāt shade to you I genuinely think you have a very healthy relationship towards him. This is just about other fans Iāve seen online.

No, I totally get what youāre saying and youāre right. Iām just having a hard time articulating why I think itās not the same as like just taking a break cuz the fame got too much. Itās a weird thing to try and describe. That quality of interaction. I donāt know what the words are for it, lol. But maybe Iām insane and imaging things. It just felt like part of the bandās ethos. Like itās incorporated into their identity that they reject the celebrity path. I donāt know.
But yeah whatever the reason, I donāt think anyone has any right to be mad at him. Heās not obligated to give us his time and give access to his personal being. It was a generosity on his part that he even did that. His only job is to make music and he does it beautifully so letās let him be a guy.
