*chugs a full half and half Monster Rehab*
So, you know how Darkseid is looking for the Anti-Life Equation? Well, Danny and the other Halfas are kinda Anti-Alive. Idk, my mind is going to how Thanos is trying to impress Lady Death in the weirdest ways possible (like killing half the universe or making her side piece immortal), and changing the names to Darkseid and Danny.
Darkseid attacking the earth was far from a rare occurrence. Usually his attacks were centered on the Justice League, but around every 1 out of 5 times he would just show up on a regular Tuesday with his army pouring through various Boom Tubes in every major city.
This wasn’t even the first time Darkseid had attacked like this since Danny had joined the League. The only difference was that instead of flying to Fawcett City to help Captain Marvel fight the invaders there, Danny had been in Gotham helping Bats and Diana with an artifact smuggling ring. The two of them immediately got in the Bat-Plane and headed towards Metropolis as fast as they could and Danny had been dragged along.
Darkseid was already holding Superman by the neck when they flew overhead. Diana jumped out to help Supergirl fight some messed up guy in a pink robe while the two Superboys were beating up an old lady. Batman gained Darkseid’s attention by firing missiles at the space tyrant which froze him to the ground and knocked the struggling Superman from his grip.
Darkseid’s glare followed the plane as it flew overhead. Then it started actually following as his Omega Beams burst forward.
“Hang on!” Phantom yelled, grabbing ahold of Batman and turning them both intangible just as the beams destroyed the plane around them.
He gently flew Bats on the ground. Bats did his customary grunt of approval he gave out if you saved him from certain death and ran to help the two heroines take out cloak man as Danny flew over to help take down the grandma. A few other heroes were focusing on keeping the Parademons flooding through the portal contained. Danny recognized a few, mainly Steel, Booster Gold, and Black Lightning, but there were even more that he didn’t.
He turned back to his own fight just in time to avoid getting hit by the old lady’s baton.
“Sorry, Grandma!” Phantom smirked, phasing through the attack. “Any chance I can let you pinch my cheeks and we call it a day?”
“Temping, porkchop, but an old lady needs her hobbies. And conquering planets is one of Granny’s favorites,” the old lady laughed swinging at him a few more times, only for each blow to pass through him like the last.
“Well, next time we’ll just invite you to bingo night,” Danny remarked, grabbing her wrist on the last blow and twisting it behind her back. The older Superboy tackled her through the Halfa as the younger one flew up high and plummeted feet first into her head, knocking Granny out.
The fighting seemed to be winding down. Diana had the guy in the pink robe tied up in her lasso while Batman ran over to help the Atom close the Boom Tube and Supergirl flew over to help her cousin fight Darkseid.
The only fight that was still going strong was Superman and Darkseid. Neither Titan was willing to bow to the other. Supergirl flew in between them, snapping Darkseid’s head to the side with a well placed kick. The space tyrant staggered for a moment before grabbing her leg and throwing her at Superman. The two Kryptonians fell to the ground in a tangle of limbs as Darkseid charged up his Omega Beams.
Danny didn’t even think. One second he was floating next to Jon and the next he had teleported in between the ruler of Apokolips and the two Kryptonians. He barely managed to throw up a shield in time. The Omega Beams shook the shield and kicked up dust around it, but Phantom gritted his teeth and managed to keep it steady. He only let the shield finally fall once the dust had settled.
“Impressive, child. Not even a Lantern Ring can shield from my Omega Beams. What are you?”
“You know, just a dead guy who doesn’t really know how to stay dead,” Danny chatted, keeping Darkseid’s attention on him. The portal was directly behind the tyrant. Wonder Woman and the Superboys threw their respective bad guys back through the portal.
“How can you be both dead and alive?” Darkseid asked. If he was confused, he didn’t let it show. Batman gestured at the two Supers behind Danny. They gave him a small nod and looked at the tyrant. Danny raised a hand to stop them.
“Back everyone up and cover your ears,” Danny whispered under his breath at a level only the four supers could hear. The Superboys quickly got everyone away from the portal while Superman and Supergirl gave him looks of confusion, but eventually relented. The entire time Darkseid’s attention was on Danny and Danny alone.
“Guess I’m just that stubborn,” Danny chuckled at the dictator. “I died, it didn’t fully stick, now here I am as a ghost.”
“Breathtaking.”
“You know what else is breathtaking?” Danny sucked in as much air as he could, not that he really needed it, and released a wail.
At once, all windows on the street shattered. Everyone covered their ears and the heart breaking cry sweep through the area. The Supers all collapsed to their knees, the sound even worse for those with super hearing. Tears threatened to spill from everyone’s eyes. Everyone but Darkseid.
The Dictator of Apokolips seemed almost stunned. Blood streamed from his nose and probably his ears, though those were hidden in his helmet. The sound waves slammed into him and he did nothing to fight back as the waves set him careening head over heels back towards the portal.
Darkseid barely managed to grab the edge of the portal and the wail stopped and Danny fell to his knees. White rings flickered around him and started to change him back into Fenton, but he managed to stop them before anyone could who wasn’t already looking could see. And the only one looking was Darkseid.
“Someone close the portal!” Batman yelled. All of the heroes staggered to their feet and tried to run to the Mother Box as Darkseid just stares at Phantom.
“Such beautiful cries of pain,” Darkseid muttered. His gaze never left the exhausted Phantom. He realized almost too late that the heroes were going for the Mother Box. He charged up his Omega Beams and shot them at the closest hero, Wonder Woman. She managed to ricochet them off her bracelets, but the beams kept coming back for her. The other heroes had to back up in fear of getting hit or getting in the Amazonian’s way.
Suddenly, a yellow blur swept through the area, knocking Diana out of the way are replacing her with an unconscious Parademon. A figure, this one white and red, landed on the Mother Box, destroying the device. Finally, a red blur ran in and punched Darkseid in the face, sending the tyrant careening through the closing portal.
“Sorry we’re late.” Flash chuckled, as a frustrated Kid Flash and Impulse stopped behind him. “What’d we miss?”
A series of groans ripped through the heroes as they just sat down and waited for the Javelin to get there for med evac.
—————————————————————————
You’d think Danny’s first time fighting Darkseid would be a bigger deal, but it was honestly not as big of a deal as everyone made it out to be. Danny had been fighting genocidal inter-dimensional tyrants since he was 14. What was one genocidal space tyrant making the list?
Batman apparently didn’t think it no big deal, though, if the worried version of the patented Bat-glare and Bat-grunt were anything to go off of. It had been a few days since the fight and the Bat had finally managed to wrangle everyone who had been involved in the Metropolis fight to the Watchtower for a debrief.
The meeting was supposed to start five minutes ago, but only the Flash was still missing. Danny, Conner, and Kara had been making jokes about it to a groaning Kid Flash and a pouting Impulse when the Boom Tube opened.
Everyone jumped to the ready. Batman pulled out a Batarang. Wonder Woman readied her lasso. Superman, Super girl, and the younger Superboy all started floating while their eyes glowed red. The older Superboy got into a fighting stance that Booster Gold quickly copied. The Atom shrank. Black Lightning’s hands sparked with electricity while Danny’s hands glowed with ectoplasm. The two speedsters vibrated in place.
They were ready for anything to come through. Except for a box of chocolates, a bouquet of roses, and a severed head of a yellow, bald alien. As quickly as it opened, the portal closed again. Kid Flashes summed it up best.
“What the fuck?” The yellow speedster yelled.
“Is that-“ Diana piped up, only for Superman to interrupt.
“It’s Mongul,” the Man of Steel growled.
“Who would send a severed warlord’s head with a bunch of romantic gifts?” The Atom piped up from where he stood on Booster’s shoulder.
“Well if it’s not poisoned, dibs on the chocolate,” Impulse gave a nervous laugh.
Batman and Black Lightning approached the table. Batman took a device of his belt and scanned the head then chocolate, each one coming back clean. Lightning picked up the bouquet and found a note.
“To Phantom,” he read out loud. “Your screams of agony resonated through my very being. You are the answer to my billion year search for the Anti-Life Equation. Join me and together we can enslave the universe to our will. Darkseid.”
The room fell into silence. Everyone had various looks of disgust on their face. The silence was eventually broken by Danny groaning and rubbing his eyes with his palms.
“Why do I only attract fruitloops?” He yelled up to the ceiling.
“GUYS!” A red blur yelled as he burst into the room. Flash had finally arrived. “I saw Desaad buying flowers in central city! And then Granny Goodness showed up with a box of chocolates and they Boom Tubed away! Hey, they actually looked a bit like these. Holy shit! Is that Mongul?”
Black Lightning just handed the Scarlet Speedster the note. Flash summed it up the best.
“What the fuck?”
Idk, let me know if I got to continue.

Oh my god post-prison spencer and sunshine!reader is my new favorite 🥹
Can I request how spencer would react if something goes wrong in one of their cases and reader is held hostage/taken? I imagine she would be shaken ofc and spencer would comfort her after
canon level violence, reader has dislocated her shoulder and was concussed while also trying to fight off the feelings that are rapidly developing for spencer, and spencer doesn't give a fuck about her fighting their attraction
“Unlock the door, Y/n.” Spencer’s outside your door, he has been for the last couple of days. You’d been injured in the field, a concussion and a dislocated shoulder that had come from the unsub taking you during what would’ve been his take down.
You’d been dispatched from the hospital last week after being less than attractive to the doctor who wanted to keep you there for longer.
You’d answered texts and calls from your co-workers, but you’d been ignoring Spencer.
“Go away Spencer, you’re supposed to be in Nebraska.” you were consulting on a case the team is currently on, so he can’t lie.
He doesn’t try to, like you’d suspected, “I asked Emily to stay behind, you aren’t doing well.”
You sigh on the other side of the door, relenting because you know that he won’t leave.
“How can I help you?” You’re a little less than polite, but Spencer doesn’t seem to care. He knows what it’s like to be sidelined from the team due to injury and be upset about it.
“Well first, you can let me in, I may look strong but these arms were not made to hold more than five bags at a time.” he’s as tender as he always is and it softens you.
Stepping aside, you let Spencer in. Your apartment is clean, you’ve been surviving off delivery breakfasts and take out lunches, you can’t raise your hand high, so cooking is a no.
You’re not worried about your attire, you’re in a green tank top with ’save the planet’ embroidered in cursive with a sick earth just beneath it, and a pair of cotton shorts that hit just above your knee- the heat in the city was driving you crazy and you also didn’t have the energy to try for more clothes- certainly not without upsetting your shoulder some more.
If Spencer is surprised by your outfit, he says nothing. You’re hardly surprised by his, a purple shirt tucked neatly into his dress pants and smart shoes; you’re not sure how he’s managed a perfect outfit in this heat.
Spencer sets the bags down and begins the task of taking out all the things inside- he pulls out packages of various nuts, passion fruit juices and a mountain of those clear, plastic bowls filled with fruit.
“You didn’t have to buy pre-cut fruit; I know it’s more expensive that way.” You say to him, finding a bit of trouble pushing yourself into the chair you have at your kitchen island.
Spencer sets down the plastic bags and moves around the countertop to help you, “I cut them myself, they didn’t have the ones you like in the grocery store.”
You’re stunned silent, the bowls are full of watermelon, cantaloupes, orange quarters, mangoes, grapes and pineapple. All your favourites cut exactly the way you liked. Spencer must’ve spent around a hundred dollars just getting the fruit alone, maybe even more if the number of grapes is anything to go off of.
“Spencer, you didn't have to.” He shrugs, his eyes searching your face.
“How’s your head? Have you been feeling dizzy or having double vision?” It’s not easy to lie to Spencer, doubly so when he’s standing before you and staring at you so intensely.
“The dizziness comes and goes, mostly when I’m in the shower.” You say honestly, and Spencer frowns.
“You could’ve told me,” you blow a raspberry and pull the bowl full of mangoes towards you.
“You would’ve made me go back to the hospital; I don’t like the smell of them.” you chew on a piece of mango while Spencer carries on assessing you.
He notes that the mottling on your shoulder has gone down significantly, now it’s just purple and a little blue. Your eyes don’t appear unfocused, and Spencer is glad for it. “I wouldn’t have.”
“So, what’s your verdict, Doc?” you ask, shutting the lid on the mangoes before you burn through the entire container.
“You’re not concussed, I think your dizziness in the shower is from you moving your shoulder too much and agitating it.” Spencer presses a light fingertip into the bruised skin and you hiss, batting his hand away making him laugh.
You hum, “So what? I just never shower again? In the middle of this heatwave? I’d rather die.”
“I forget how dramatic you can be.” Spencer shakes his head, “Or, you could’ve called me, or Penelope and either one of us could’ve given you a sponge bath.”
You make your eyebrows dance, “You would’ve liked that, wouldn’t you Spence?” He rolls his eyes, tugging on the braid your hair is in.
“How’d you do that?” he asks, helping you off the chair and leading you into your kitchen.
Your face is red hot, “I bribed my neighbour’s kid to do it for pumpkin bread the minute my arm is out the sling.”
Of course you did, you might be sunshine incarnate, but Spencer knows everyone has a spot they don’t want others to see- this is yours. You don’t want anyone in your team viewing you as incapable or in need when they should see you as capable and able to do every facet of your job.
“I can help you make the bread tonight if you want something to do when the case is over.”
You tilt your head, watching Spencer look around your cupboards for a glass. “Top left cabinet,” you say and he nods, smiling when he finds a glass covered in stickered ladybugs.
Spencer fills it almost to the top with passion fruit juice and passes it to you.
“Are you staying the night, Spencer Reid?” you take a sip and sigh in delight, it’s been a while since you’ve had passion fruit juice, you’re not entirely sure how Spencer knew it was your favourite.
“If you let me, it isn’t good for you to be by yourself and the more you strain your shoulder, the longer it’ll take for you to get back in the field.”
An impish smile tugs at your lips, your eyes gleaming with a mischievousness Spencer hardly thought you possessed, “So what you’re saying is, you miss me desperately and will sacrifice your hatred of germs and touching other people just to ensure I’m back in Quantico at your earliest convenience?”
A call from Penelope cuts through the fat of your question, making you laugh when Spencer rushes to answer it and slides you a mock glare that you know is just for show.
“Yeah, Penelope, what have you got? Y/n and I are here,” well, there’s no escaping his presence now. You find you don’t mind it quite so much, your beginning aims of not falling for him is shredding more and more as the months go on.

This is a Lance based on a langst/slow burn klance au where he goes undercover and gains a second scar right over his pre-existing one.
So the gist of this au is that Lance is sent alone to attempt to investigate a partial lead on a massive druid energy harvesting operation. No one else they've sent in has managed to get in deep enough but they note that all the ppl who do (none affiliated with the coalition) have scars that the Queen on this planet favors.
One such scar is a back scar which Lance just so happens to have and they send him as a tourist to see if it gains attention. It does and he ends up deep undercover alone and with no contact. During his stay he quickly gains the queens favor as his back scar mirrors one on her favorite gods from her home planet, the god of freedom Asteus.
This god gave up his freedom (his wings thus the back scar) so that their people could gain eternity so she grows possessive of lance, thinks his freedom is hers to harvest.
She starts calling him by the name Asteus and brands his back taking not only his voice (so he can't share any information he's learned) but his freedom and life energy.
The brand is a tracker, a seal, and a quintessence drain. Lance is unable to escape alone and has all the information the coalition needs to save millions.
He's freed by the aid of two others also trapped by the queen (two that were too weak to take the same brand) and Keith holds lance close as the brand is removed through the silent scream and tears.
It scars though and lance hates it, he won't look at it, has lost confidence bc of it. He has lost parts of himself to the trauma. It's Keith that helps him learn to heal, it's Keith that helps him as a support and helps him learn to be empowered again by not concealing the scar as it continues to fade.
Keith gifts Lance jewelery made of gold to drape across his back to help him feel beautiful again To help him feel free (bc it's his choice to wear or show the scar with pride and the gold helps lance see that he doesn't have to fear it anymore, bc he is safe)
Dark ik but it's a very dramatic au like the word doc for it has 5k words of just info in it. It's a mystery mostly but with the added langst (and slow burn kl) there's so much more to it but this scene wouldn't leave my head so I drew it
A gift of love and care that lance wears as he learns to heal again. I will be writing it one day but it's still in the planning phases.

Defying Time
Tenth Doctor x gn!Reader
My fic masterlist
Summary: The Doctor is afraid of losing you and starting a relationship, even after kissing you. You are trying to prove that it's all worth it.
Tags: angst, fluff.
Word Count: 2,3K
The TARDIS was making a low, pleasant hum as you gazed at the stars and planets from your favourite spot.
You often asked the Doctor to take you there, it was your beloved place to go after all your recent adventures. Your requests were not in flying to some planet, because your favourite spot in the universe was the TARDIS herself, but going to the planets and stars to watch them from your spaceship.
It was a bisolar system, with many vibrant orange, yellow, and slightly brown planets circling very closely around two suns and a nebula nearby. There was no life there, but there was somehow coziness to it. It was your version of a space fireplace. You used to fly up to the TARDIS at a fairly safe distance, after which the Doctor activated an additional shield and opened the outer door, where you both sat down, dangling your feet into infinity and talking for an infinity.
It was always so great, sitting comfortably side by side in the doorway of the TARDIS and swinging your legs in the blackness of space, your faces were illuminated by a warm yellow and orange light. You and the Doctor were used to discuss the latest happenings and moments, share stories from the past, muse about future plans and then you usually sat silent together, enjoying the warmth of nearby stars and each other.
Lately, in moments like that, he liked to take your hand in his and draw different circular shapes with his thumb, just gazing at the kaleidoscope of stars and planets, not being able to look directly at you and barely hiding a happy smile.
This time you were also sitting there like that, but you hardly talked and everything was different.
Because you had kissed earlier that day.
You spent the whole day on another spaceship, saving its crew and escaping from the danger yourself. You had to split up with the Doctor, and you went to the compartment where the dangerous alien ended up being too. When you finally managed to get rid of it, you rushed to the Doctor, meeting him in the hallway, where he was already hastening towards you. When he saw that you were safe and sound, realizing that he hadn't lost you, he couldn't hold back his feelings any longer. Just like you.
It was pure adrenaline, you kissed passionately, embracing each other tightly, hands tangling in his hair. You didn't have a second to think, your bodies were doing everything on their own, everything that you should have done long ago, because both of you couldn't contain all the feelings that had been overwhelming you for a much time.
But you were quickly interrupted by the crew members coming up to you, stunning with the news that that the alien monster was not in fact the only one here, so you had to run again and come up with a new plan.
And that was a moment the Doctor got what he was both the best and sometimes the worst at. Time to think. Too much time to think.
During which he almost lost you again, in front of his own eyes this time, deciding that it was all too much. Precisely, remembering once again all the reasons why he had condemned himself to his own solitude and found confirmation of the correctness of his decision one more time.
Therefore, after you had saved the crew of the spaceship, you went to your own ship and, having reached your favorite place of the bisolar system, just sat there without saying a word to each other about what had happened. Or rather, you tried, but the Doctor's whole attitude said you shouldn't.
You knew he didn't think it was an accident or a mistake, but he couldn't approve of it either. You understood what was the matter because you had known him long enough and well enough to have a mere idea of what was going on in his head at that moment.
He held your hand, gently tracing circles on your skin with his thumb. Sometimes he would look you in the eye, but still wouldn't say anything. In that warm orange light, his chocolate eyes and freckles seemed even more expressive.
You looked lovingly at those freckles and once again saw beautiful constellations on his face that you swear you could redraw onto a starry sky map by connecting them all.
"Doctor, I..." you broke the silence, unable to watch the moment slipping away any longer as the Doctor was overthinking it more and more.
"No," the Doctor interrupted you quietly but firmly.
"Why?" you asked plaintively, already knowing the answer to that question. In response, the Doctor just gave you a pleading look that could barely hide the pain.
"I know that you've been through a lot, lost a lot of people.… But surely this shouldn't happen every time, should it?"
The Doctor only slightly curled his lips into a bitter smile.
"In the end, it is us who choose this fate, we, your companions. It's not your fault that someone leaves or... or..."
"Dies," The Doctor finished it for you, "Y/N, I don't want to, I can't experience that again! Especially not with you."
"Doctor, I'm not going to die anytime soon. And besides, it's not you who would die! You shall live on, as always. You will continue your journey. You've seen it a hundred times, you should have gotten used to it. This does not mean that you need to keep your distance from everyone now on. If I were you..."
"You don't know what you're talking about," he snapped darkly.
"If I were a Time Lord, I would be more courageous, because I would have all the time and all the wisdom in the world, especially when the other person doesn't mind," you finished your thought.
"Thank gods you're not a Time Lord!" The Doctor jumped to his feet, angry, "And I would pray every day you won't understand what that means!"
You got to your feet after the Doctor and delicately took his hands in yours, trying to calm him down and reassure. He pulled his hands away from yours with a hesitation and looked away, shaking his head slightly, making a bad attempt to say "no" to your relationship.
"Doctor..." you began softly, taking his hands in yours again and lightly rubbing circles with your thumbs. So, you stood there in silence for some time, until you continued, "I've noticed that lately you've been drawing the same circles on my skin a lot. On my arm when we're sitting like this. On my back when you're hugging me. On my shoulder, if we're standing and talking to someone. Are these symbols in Gallifreyan?"
He returned the surprised look to you, without responding to it.
"What do they mean, what do you want to tell me all this time?"
"Is it really necessary to say it out loud?" The Doctor asked seriously, looking into your eyes. His expression was almost unreadable due to the huge mix of different feelings that were intertwined inside him. You stood silent.
"Is it?" he repeated in a quiet breaking voice.
After a moment, that felt like an eternity to him, you finally said:
"I love you too, Doctor."
He looked at you with his mouth slightly open, shocked. His eyebrows seemed pleading.
The Doctor didn't know what to say anymore, but he desperately wanted to protect himself and you from the pain that he thought would follow soon enough. Especially soon by his own measurements. So, he found nothing better than, after some hesitation, to gently touch your temples with his long fingers. You felt the heat of his hands along with the light chill of his very fingertips.
"Y/N, I'm sorry, but you have to see this, to feel it at least a little bit to truly understand me," the Doctor whispered.
After that, by the power of his telepathy, he began to translate some of the memories and emotions that he had experienced over the past decades. Sarah Jane, Martha Jones, Donna Noble. Rose. There were many other people he had met and lost during his adventures. You felt his joy, and then his pain after every face you saw. Tears started flowing down your cheeks. You understood that he hadn't shown you even half of his life, especially the loss of his home planet, his people, his family. All these were carefully chosen memories of the Doctor, so as not to drive you completely devastated.
And then you saw yourself. Saw and sensed in his memories the vivid feeling of how he met you, how you started traveling together. Every feature of you, your smile, your voice, your words, your shared memories. The joy of every moment that made his and your hearts flutter and beat so fast. You began to feel overwhelmed by emotions of such power that it was difficult to breathe – it was more intense than anything he had shown you before. Everything seemed and felt to be like in a golden glow.
And then it all went out into the darkness.
You understood, or rather, you could only imagine what could happen to the Doctor when all this would be over. He looked at you, barely holding back tears himself, with a face full of ache and despair. And love, so strong, which he was afraid of losing, before even fully obtaining it.
"Doctor..." you whispered, slowly placing your hands on top of his, gently caressing them.
He couldn't even say anything, but his expression said, "Maybe now you'll understand why I'm doing all this."
But you didn't give up. You couldn't give up. Damn it, was it the love, or what was it then?
"And now take a look into my mind," you said a little louder, pressing his hands harder against your temples.
"Are you sure?" the Doctor asked in surprise.
"Yes. Please."
And then he saw it all. All the events that he had experienced himself, but through your eyes. What exactly was your life like before him. The way you met. That you felt right away that he was special and would always be so in your life. He saw his own features, his own soul through your eyes. He saw himself from a side he had never seen before. He liked to call himself smart and brilliant, but it was more always a self-persuasion, a moment of humor or cheekiness. But this time he felt it truly, the love for every trait of him without an admixture of irony or bragging.
He had been running from himself for most of his life, and now he realized, he really understood that he could be loved and accepted the way he was, the way he always wanted to be.
Tears began to form in the Doctor's eyes.
He realized that you weren't traveling with him because your life was boring before him. Not because it was difficult sometimes before that. And not just because it was all amazing and new, that he was a fantastic alien like you hadn't never seen before. But because it was him in the first place. Because of the Doctor himself. He felt that you had chosen him the same way if he was an ordinary inhabitant of Earth, and you would be happy to spend your earthly lives together with him. Just because of what he was like deep down inside, in his core.
It seemed like his two hearts were about to stop beating, overflowing with feelings. His legs could barely support him standing on the floor of the TARDIS. At that moment, the Doctor realized that he would be a complete fool, a complete coward, if he did not take his chance.
No one chooses to be born as a Time Lord, but everyone can choose trying to defy time personally and take a bold look into its infinite eyes.
And that was why he kissed you again.
He kissed you with all his might, with all the passion he could muster.
It was more than enough to almost sweep you off your feet and nearly break you into pieces, but you held on to that blow and when you got over the surprise of the moment, you responded with equal intensity of affection.
Finally, you fully and unhurriedly savoured what the Doctor tasted like. He felt like some kind of milk chocolate and spiced cinnamon with a hint of sweet and sour berries. This combination made your head spin even more, it was a taste that you were ready to feel for ages without getting tired.
It was a kiss set against the backdrop of super-hot stars and boundess planets, a kiss that was capable of transcending space and time.
Love, passion and emotions were ignited inside you, which were hardly less intense than the temperature of the said stars that shone on you with bright orange and yellow fire.
Pulling back slightly, the Doctor held you by the waist with one hand and with the other hand tenderly stroked your cheek, drawing round symbols on it. He couldn't take his eyes off you, admiring you from under half-closed, still tearful eyes of the color of a melted chocolate.
Feeling the familiar circular symbols on your skin again, you exhaled happily, still feeling the trails of hot tears on your cheeks, which were slowly drying off. Your lips stretched into a smile.
"I love you too, Doctor."
"Say it again," he asked in a whisper.
"I love you, Doctor."
"And again."
"I love..." and with those words, he kissed you one more time, wrapping you tightly in his arms and spinning you around against the background of magnificent bright stars.
He promised himself that he would no longer be afraid of Time, not with you. After all, he was its Lord. He would definitely come up with something and find a way to work it all out.
And not because he was a Time Lord, but because he was the Doctor, and you trusted him. Trusted him endlessly.
He wouldn’t let you down.

I am going to rank all of the Super Mario Galaxies and none of you can stop me
That's right! I'm ranking all of them! All ninety-one of these things! Hi, I'm Mod Hooligon, and you may recognize me as "the mod that posted about Super Paper Mario a lot", but did you know? The Super Mario Galaxy games are maybe my actual favorite Mario games! In fact, I've never even beaten Super Paper Mario! I'm a fraud! But I'm a cute fraud, right?
But I'm not a fraud when it comes to Super Mario Galaxy, because I've 100%'d both games, and have replayed them multiple times over! And when you play some games that much, you start to have opinions. And then you want to subject everyone else to your opinions! So that's what I'm gonna do.
This is gonna be a little Weirdmarioenemies mini-series I run outside of our usual posting schedule, so expect a new part of this list every Sunday, until there's no Galaxies left to cover. Today we'll be tackling all the low-tier Galaxies, because there's not enough of them to warrant making three separate posts for F-tier, D-tier, and C-tier.
Got that? Good. Rankings start under the cut!
91. Sling Pod Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: F
Well, something had to be the worst. If you are an ardent Sling Pod Galaxy fan, I am so, so sorry. Let it be known that you are entitled to your own opinion, and that I understand.
But I'm also entitled to my own opinion and my opinion is that Sling Pod Galaxy is Not Very Good! Really, not a lot of the Hungry Luma galaxies from the first game are, we're gonna be covering most of them in this post...
The Sling Pods aren't an awful gimmick in and of themselves, it can be fun to slingshot Mario around, and they're used to great effect in the Tarantox boss fight! But I feel like they can be a bit imprecise, and nowhere does that show more than in Sling Pod Galaxy, where you're required to fling Mario from Sling Pod to Sling Pod with precise timing, and not a lot of wiggle room.
If your aim or timing is just slightly off (and let's face it, it uses motion controls, so it's probably going to be) then you're gonna sling Mario right into the void. There's a cool concept here, but at the end of the day, I'll always find Sling Pod Galaxy more frustrating than fun.
And besides that, it's just not very thematically interesting! It's kinda just cobbled together out of miscellaneous assets, but doesn't manage to make it feel like a Theme the way Space Junk Galaxy does.
90. Snow Cap Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: F
Oh look, another Hungry Luma Galaxy! That didn't take long at all.
I feel like most people wouldn't consider the bunny chases the highlights of the Super Mario Galaxy games, and Snow Cap Galaxy is a galaxy that makes you chase three bunnies, all of which start the mission hidden, under a pretty strict time limit. There's a small chamber you can open that you can chase the bunnies into, but in order to open it, you need to activate a number of Flipswitches, most of which are hidden in the snow, which you need to use your cursor to clear out...
I feel like this mission asks too much of you in too little time, and ends up being another one that ends up more frustrating than fun, especially with how inconsistent chasing down the bunnies can actually be! That being said, I'll give it the edge over Sling Pod, since I think it's at least a little more aesthetically interesting. Bunnies hiding in the snow! It's cute.
89. Stone Cyclone Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tier: F
If the Hungry Lumas have the worst galaxies in the first game, then World S has some of the worst in the second. I wouldn't say the track record is nearly as bad, I think Super Mario Galaxy 2's quality is much more consistent all around, but that didn't manage to save Stone Cyclone from escaping the bottom tier...
I like a good challenge, but I like a good challenge, and I don't know if I'd consider Stone Cyclone Galaxy good. It's a repeat of the Stone Cyclone planet from the first game (which I do like!), but with all the Tox Boxes, Thwomps, and moving platforms moving 4 times faster. You're given switches that can temporarily slow everything down, and make everything much more manageable, but since it's all temporary, you better be able to manage the faster version once the timer's up!
I don't know, there's a cool concept here, but I feel everything moves so fast when time isn't slowed down, that making jumps between the moving platforms in particular can be really difficult. And when the Tox Boxes are moving faster than you do, sometimes it feels like there's not much room to move without getting squished soon after!
88. Flipswitch Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: D
Yep! Stone Cyclone was the last of the bottom-tiers. Again, there's not really a lot of galaxies in these games I don't like. Now we're at the "I don't necessarily hate them, but also find them kind of pointless" tier!
And no Galaxy feels more pointless to me than Flipswitch Galaxy, which is honestly kind of a joke. Flipswitch Galaxy is One planet. That's right, you get one! This is an entire Galaxy that could easily be a mission in another Galaxy, and even that's being generous. This is a stopgap between two planets in a cooler, more elaborate Galaxy.
Flipswitch Galaxy isn't really frustrating at all, it's probably one of the easiest missions in the entire game, but it's so short and so pointless, that I just wish they did a little more with it, you know? Add a couple more planets, let things escalate a little more, I know you want to keep it easy because of how early in the game it is, but if Flip-Swap Galaxy is any indication, you can do a breezy early-game gimmick galaxy much better than this!
87. Bigmouth Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: D
Okay, quick question, how many of you have beaten Bigmouth Galaxy the intended way? I genuinely didn't know until a pretty recent playthrough that there even were Star Chips in this Galaxy. I always just used gravity shenanigans to jump from the top of pool to the other! I thought that's what you were supposed to do, and that the jump was just a little annoying to get right! I'm not sure if I've even ever done this mission the intended way. The jump is just way quicker.
Bigmouth Galaxy is pretty whatever. It sure does exist! I think it's funny that this is a Hungry Luma Galaxy, but Penguru says he likes to come here frequently just to think. He's been a frequent here ever since the galaxy was born five minutes ago!
What do you want me to say about Bigmouth Galaxy. It's a shorter, easier, more mediocre version of Slimy Spring Galaxy, I guess.
86. Drip Drop Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: D
I'm just not giving these Hungry Luma galaxies a break, am I? Don't worry Hungry Lumas, you'll do better in Super Mario Galaxy 2.
Anyway, Drip Drop Galaxy is a single planet where you kill a few Gringills with shells, and that's really it. The underwater controls in this game can feel a little janky, so aiming the shells can be a little frustrating, but it's not especially hard, especially if you can find the Red Shells, which retain their homing ability from Mario Kart.
Pretty unremarkable, not especially fun, but I don't dread it the way I do some others, so that's a plus. Apparently this is where Penguru lives.
85. Bowser Jr.'s Lava Reactor
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: D
Wrapping up the D-tiers, we have Bowser Jr.'s Lava Reactor, the most forgettable of the Bowser and Bowser Jr. stages. King Kaliente is a cool boss and all, and I think the sinking lava platforms are a cool shakeup to his fight, but for the final boss of the fifth dome, you kinda think they'd do a bit more, right?
There's not really a lot of buildup to the boss, and the boss itself isn't all that difficult, which makes this mission feel pretty underwhelming. I'm curious if I'd put this higher if it weren't one of the Bowser Jr. stages. My stance is "probably, but not by too much". There's not a lot going on in this galaxy.
84. Boo's Boneyard Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
I don't know what it says that this is one of the better Hungry Luma galaxies from the first game.
Let's talk positives first! I think it's cool that they give you a rematch against the Spooky Speedster, and I like that it shakes things up so much. The idea of you getting the Boo Mushroom to become more "equal" with the Spooky Speedster is cool, and I like that they further differentiate things by making it a 2D level. That's all pretty cool!
It's just that... I think this mission is really easy. The Spooky Speedster isn't really all that speedy here, and unlike the shortcut during the first race which you kinda have to go out of your way for, this time it's in plain sight, and not hard to reach at all. Besides that, I just don't think the Boo Mushroom is an especially fun powerup to use in a Race. It's a good powerup, make no mistake, but in the context of a race, it feels pretty sluggish...
83. Loopdeeloop Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
Super Mario Galaxy has a handful of motion-control based minigames, and of the bunch, I think the ray surfing is my least favorite. I don't hate it, I kinda like how wild riding the waves can feel, but at the same time, that wildness combined with the motion controls can make it feel at times like you don't have a lot of control over where you're going, you know?
Loopdeeloop Galaxy is the galaxy that introduces this minigame, and it's fine. I generally prefer its more challenging variant (which we'll see later, but not too much later), but this works well enough as an introduction. It's just kind of a basic version of a minigame I'm not that big a fan of, there's not a lot to say about Loopdeeloop Galaxy.
82. Honeyclimb Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
As far as single-mission gimmick galaxies go, this one is alright. I like the use of Mandibugs and Meteors to spice things up. Unlike something like the Flipswitch Galaxy, this has a pretty solid sense of escalation, which I like!
That being said, it's still pretty basic, climbing honey walls isn't exactly the most exciting gimmick in the world, so I'm not gonna be that huge on a galaxy built completely around it. I guess the focus on the honey climbing lets it feel a bit more distinct from the other Bee Mushroom galaxies, but it's also easily the weakest of the Bee Mushroom galaxies, so I'm not sure if that's a good thing...
I feel like I don't have much to say about any of these mid-tier Galaxies. Sorry.
81. Grand Finale Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
Of all the galaxy rankings, I feel like this is one of the ones I feel the least certain about. Part of me feels it should be lower, part of me thinks putting it lower would be unfair, so instead it ends up here!
From a gameplay perspective, Grand Finale Galaxy is not really that interesting at all. There's no challenge, you just grab the Purple Coins, which are all just out there in the open, and that's really it! That's the star! I don't even know if you can die in this galaxy at all.
But like, that feels like the wrong way to assess this galaxy, because it's not meant to be a challenge in the slightest, it's meant to be this nice little reward you get for getting 100% in this game. You beat the game twice over already, so get to enjoy the Star Festival without Bowser rudely interrupting! Get to spend a little more time with all the characters you've met on your journey before being done with the game for good, it's here as a nice little bonus.
That being said, as a Grand Finale, I feel it sort of lacks... grandeur? I dunno. It's cute as a nice little goodbye, but part of me feels they could've done a little more with it.
Don't ask me what! I'm not a game designer, I'm just some autistic girl on the internet talking about a 16 year old video game! Leave me alone!
80. Mario Squared Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tier: C
I'll give Mario Squared Galaxy this: it has one of the best names of any galaxy across these games, and that gotta count for something.
Mario Squared is pretty much just a reused planet from Toy Time Galaxy in the first game, just with the rotating squares swapped out for Flipswitches. And I mean hey, if you're gonna reuse content from any galaxy, Toy Time is a pretty good pick. but also the very nature of being reused content means I'm bumping it down a bit, because eh! We've already seen this before! I don't need a galaxy to be a small part of a better galaxy!
I'm pretty sure this galaxy solely exists so they could bring back the infamous Luigi's Purple Coins mission in Super Mario Galaxy 2, which I guess is fair. That mission is difficult, but it is fun, and I like the twists they add in this game (like the Cosmic Clones, and the fact you have to grab all of them this time)! Fun way to create a new take on one of the first game's most challenging missions.
...But can I really rate a galaxy that highly for redoing something another Galaxy already did? I don't know if I can give Mario Squared Galaxy a super high grade for copying Toy Time Galaxy's homework and changing it a little.
I think it's funny that the objective of this mission is to turn all the blue Flipswitches yellow, so it looks like Mario's SMB1 sprite, but once all the Flipswitches are activated, they all turn green, making the whole thing feel kinda pointless. This is fine because green is a better color than yellow anyway.
79. Hurry-Scurry Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
Another one of those short gimmick galaxies with only one mission. I think building a galaxy around these disappearing panels is a pretty fun idea. Once you stand on one of them, it's gone forever, so you have to plan your route carefully, but don't spend too much time planning, because all the ground is disappearing panels. It creates a fun dynamic, that's true to the galaxy's name! There's a solid chance your route will be a little off, so you might have to make some big leaps to grab notes you may have missed. It's cool, I like it!
But not like, that much. It's still a pretty small galaxy all things considered. This one gets a little buildup before the end, which is nice, but it's not much buildup, so the whole experience ends up feeling a little short.
Not helping is the fact they repeat this mission later in the game, but more challenging, and in a galaxy that has other things going on. That does subtract from Hurry-Scurry Galaxy a bit, I feel.
78. Sand Spiral Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
I know I've mentioned multiple times in this post how mediocre the Hungry Luma galaxies in the first game are, but for emphasis: this is the second best one, and it's in C-Tier. Don't feel too bad, Sand Spiral Galaxy. You'll still outshine most of your siblings at the family reunion. At least if you're ignoring those pesky Super Mario Galaxy 2 Hungry Luma galaxies.
This Galaxy gives you a choice between the Bee Mushroom and the Boo Mushroom, and I pretty much always pick the Boo Mushroom I'm pretty sure. There's obstacles for both on the way, so it's not like one's strictly "better" than the other, but I always appreciate the extra control the Boo Mushroom gives me here. After a short tunnel, you lose your powerup, are sent to a spiral planet spinning around a moon, where you grab a Rainbow Star and run through some mines to grab the Star at the end.
It's a pretty short mission that doesn't really feel like it knows what it wants to do, but at the very least, I appreciate that it gives you multiple options, the visual at the end is pretty striking, and making big jumps during the spiral as a Speedrun Strat can be pretty satisfying.
77. Boss Blitz Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tier: C
If you couldn't tell already, a lot of World S in Super Mario Galaxy 2 is reused content, and that's a lot of why these galaxies are scoring so low. Boss Blitz Galaxy is a string of five boss fights from the first game in a row, which I guess makes it a bit interesting in the context of the sequel, given none of these bosses show up in the main quest, so if this is your only Super Mario Galaxy game, you kinda gotta figure them all out on the fly.
Thankfully, most of these boss fights are still pretty fun, though again, they're all reused so you're not really getting much new here. The timer challenge is sort of teetering on the edge between being "challenging in a frustrating way" and "challenging in a fun way" for me. Speedrunning all the boss fights can be really fun, but none of them really have shortcuts the way the bosses in say, Super Mario Odyssey do, and some of the RNG in the Bouldergeist fight can make the challenge feel a bit inconsistent (even if that IS the best of the bosses), so sometimes your pace feels a bit out of your control.
It also feels weird to have both Dino Piranha and Fiery Dino Piranha, it's kinda redundant, though I do like having them as the bookends, I guess.
76. Twisty Trials Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tier: C
Woah, reusing content from Super Mario Sunshine now? Slow down, World S!
For what it's worth, reusing Sunshine content is a bit more interesting than reusing Galaxy content, because it's a different game with different controls and different physics and whatnot. Still, it's not like Twisty Trials Galaxy is that interesting. It's a series of progressively more difficult rotating platforms that you have to keep your balance on, and that's really it, though I do like the comet challenge where they move twice as fast, and you have to use the Cloud Flower to keep on pace. That's pretty neat.
I wish they kept the music from Sunshine. I like the weird a capella version of the Super Mario Bros. Overworld theme way more than Super Mario 2007.
75. Loopdeeswoop Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
"The Galaxy's Greatest Wave". I mean, there's only two ray surfing galaxies across both games, this one and Loopdeeloop, so is there really that much competition?
That being said, yeah, I like this more challenging version. I know that the ray surfing minigame still isn't really my favorite (it's in C-tier for a reason!) but having a more difficult course I think brings out some of the best aspects, like how wild it feels to control! And also some of the worst aspects, like how wild it feels to control! It's still as much of a double-edged sword as ever, just a bit more extreme due to the more extreme course.
That being said, since it's more challenging, that makes finishing it feel a lot more satisfying, and I'd never say it really feels unfair. Sure, falling off can be frustrating given how difficult it can be to control, but when it's all done, I end up feeling more "yeah, I did it :D" than "oh thank god that's over with", which I think is the important distinction between an F-tier and a C-tier.
Don't take that as meaning I'm in love with this galaxy, though. It's still here for a reason.
74. Bonefin Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
The cooler Drip Drop Galaxy.
That's really pretty much all this one is, it's Drip Drop Galaxy again but this time it's a boss fight, and it's a bit more exciting because of it. Heck, you need to beat Drip Drop Galaxy to unlock this one, so the resemblance isn't unintentional!
Since it's pretty much Drip Drop Galaxy again, it suffers a lot of the same issues that Galaxy has, but I'm not gonna pretend it doesn't get boosted a lot from the Style Points, though I also think having a single large target to hit ends up feeling a lot better than several smaller targets. Aiming your shells feels a lot easier, but since it's a boss fight, there's also a better sense of escalation here.
Still, it's pretty much just the boss fight, and I mean, being a slightly better version of a D-tier Galaxy isn't exactly something I'll sing my highest praises about. If nothing else, at least it has a killer atmosphere.
73. Sea Slide Galaxy
Game: Super Mario Galaxy Tier: C
Wrapping up the C-tier is Sea Slide Galaxy, the worst of the "big" Galaxies from the first game. To quote myself from earlier in the same post, "Well, something had to be the worst." But also not quite like that since it's nowhere near as bad.
The biggest issue with Sea Slide Galaxy is there's really not an awful lot of diversity in its missions. Of the six missions here, three of them are basically "swim in a loop around the galaxy," just with slightly different distances. The Silver Star mission, thankfully, fares a lot better, as does the Improved Version of Hurry-Scurry Galaxy (here it is!) but the last of the missions is one of the boring Purple Coin missions. Mod Hooligon's Tip: If you start a Purple Coin mission and it doesn't have this banger, I'm Sorry.
The galaxy definitely has a unique layout, but there's not really much to do in the water besides swim in a circle, since every mission that doesn't involve swimming in a circle usually has you ignoring the water outright. Would this galaxy be better if it had more swimming? I dunno. As stated, the underwater controls in this game can be a bit finnicky, so maybe I should be glad it's either swim in a circle or don't swim at all.
And that's it for today's post! Do you agree with my opinions? Do you disagree? If you're a Sling Pod Galaxy fan, make some noise!
And if you're looking for the B-Tier galaxies, you're in luck, because you can find those here!

Heyyyy!!!! I read that you were taking requests so I was wondering if you could write something for non BAU nerd reader and Spencer. Something sweet and comforting with a reader that’s a nerd but more on the language and literature side.
Thank you so much and do it however you’d like. Have a great day 💕
(Would mind answering even if you decide not to write it? I think my asks aren’t getting through lately)
I love love love love this idea so so so so much.
I hope you enjoy this! As a huge literature nerd, who wants to be a language nerd, I feel like this all the time. Thank you so so so so much for this ask!!
WC: 764
TW: mentions of blood, completely blindsided by excitement, accident prone girliepop energy, complete and utter fluff
"Spencer, seriously....this is...this is too much."
Spencer looked down at his hands, a slightly blush tinging his cheeks. It was your one year anniversary. A whole year of being married to your best friend. And Spencer had gone all out with his gift.
"How the hell did you get this Spence?"
"I uh, well. It took a little bit of time but..."
"Actually." You cut him off and placed the book down on the table. "I don't want to know. Don't tell me. I fear I'll kill you if I find out the truth Spencer."
You launched yourself across the couch and wrapped your arms tightly around him. It was the most perfect gift on the planet.
"Actually." He whispered in your ear. "If you look over at the book case, I managed to get the whole set. All six of them."
Spencer didn't even feel you leave his arms as you left off the couch and rammed your shin right into the coffee table.
"Shit. Shit. I'm fine. It's fine."
Nothing could stop you. You kept moving, ignoring the pain on your shin as you stopped in front of the book case he was referring to.
When you and Spencer had bought a house six months ago, you both realized that one of the rooms would have to become a library so that you both would be able to store the sheer amount of books you had. It was completely unsurprising when you both realized that you had too many books for just one room, so the library quickly became a place for all of your favorite books, novels, collections; while the other bookcases around the house were filled with assorted titles.
What Spencer was referring to was the bookcase next to the fire place. It's where you had kept all of your multiple first editions. Both you and Spencer were doctors, it was how you had met in the first place. You were attending Harvard, obtaining your Ph.D in Literature with a focus in Renaissance and Early Modern Literature. Spencer was at MIT, four minutes down the road, obtaining his Ph.D in Engineering.
The both of you had come to a consensus to not buy one another books, unless it was a special occasion. Part of this was because of the fact that you were starting to run out of room. The other part was because you were starting to run out of specific books you wanted. The ones you had started truly collecting were first, or second, editions of novels where things would start costing thousands of dollars.
Which is why you completely ignored the blood slowly trickling down your leg, and stared in complete shock at the new edition to your ever growing Shakespeare collection.
"Spencer. You found a full set of Shakespeare's work with Pope's introduction, noted, and critiques. I have been saving up for these for years...please tell me you didn't spend this much money on me Spencer this is..."
Spencer walked back into the library with the first aid kit you both kept under the sink in the bathroom. He watched you completely ignore the injury on your leg, just so you could go and see what he had gotten you.
"They're in such good condition too." You reached out and pulled one of them off the shelf, feeling the leather beneath your fingers. "Spence--oh!"
You had turned around and almost walked him in the head with the book. He had kneeled down and started to wipe of the blood that was trailing down your shin.
"Shit Spence, are you okay?" You placed a hand on his head while he placed a band aid on the cut.
"I'm fine honey. Are you okay?"
"I am more than okay." You started to bounce on the balls of your feet as you remembered the fact that Spencer had just bought one of your dream collector's items.
He stood up and kissed you on the head.
"Spencer you don't understand. This is fucking incredible. I mean--"
You continued to ramble, not really paying any mind to Spencer as he sat down on the chair across from where you were. His eyes were filled with light as you flitted through pages, searching for quotes to tell him about, or sharing your opinions on Pope's opinions, or on Pope's Essay on Criticism, and how he almost completely contradicts himself with his comments on Shakespeare and his plays.
He could sit and listen to you talk for hour and hours. And he gladly was about to do so.

My favorites headcannons for Barriss Offee
And Luminara Unduli
And Commander Gree
She and Luminara were the first one to ever suggest the clones made unique tattoos to encourage and praise their individuality. At first this was seeing was a break of the dress code (is that the right term?) for the military, but they found a way around the lawn and eventually tattoos become very common for the clones.
Barriss saved Commander Gree life during the First battle of Geonossis. He was shot and she carried him away from the battlefield passing by a handful of geonissians and, after that battle ended, she was also responsible for his treatment. That all make Gree very grateful, and he made sure to return the favor and cover her back in every mission they were sign together.
Barriss lost a lot of creche mates in the first battle of Geonossis and was inconsolable for quite a while, but on her second mission in the clone wars Commander Gree told her storys about the bothers he also lost that day and they ended up firming their bond even further.
Before the war Barriss and Luminara were send mostly into aide missions on neutral space (helping the people and expanding the republic) and spend a lot of time with senators to join funds for their missions. (That's why they can be seen in the Chanceller office in attack of the clones. They were very familiarized with the Senate)
Quite a few planets that Luminara and Barriss introduced to the republic end up joining the Separatist alliance. Barriss was quite stressed by the possibility to fight the people she once help.
Though their political influence Luminara and Barriss manage convincing the Mirial System to join the Council of Neutral Systems lead by Duchess Satine of Mandalore. Originally they were supposed to continue this kind of work and influence planets to either stay in the republic or take a more neutral approach and avoid war entirely, but Chanceller Palpatine cut all funds for this kind of mission.
Of course Barriss despise Palpatine for it (and she actually thought about bombing his office rather than the Jedi temple later on)
Luminara actually was the one to find Barriss and bring her into the temple. She promised Barriss parents to bring her back to meet them once she became a Knight, but didn't tell Barriss beforehand to not to induce a strong attachment towards people Barriss wouldn't get to have in her live on a regular base.
Luminara embroidered all Barriss hijabs herself since Barriss was a youngling.
The totem/statue (forgive me if this isn't the correct term. I still learning english) Barriss keeps in her dorm for her prayers was actually carved by her parents and Luminara gift her once Barriss learn about Mirialan religion and who that aligns with the Jedi teachings about the force.
Since then Barriss had been making prayers was a easier way to enter meditation, and she actually thought a few younglings to do the same (even the ones the weren't Mirialan)
The Jedi council (mostly lead by Saese Tin and Ki Adi Mundi) almost denied Luminara's request to make Barriss her Padawan fearing that the two of them were way too much attached to each other (similar how they refuse to give Ahsoka to Plo and choose Anakin over him) and we're planning to give Barriss to Deppa Billaba instead (That was away before Deppa took Caleb), but they untimely agree Luminara was the right Jedi for Barriss and that the Padawan would had a much difficult job openings up to a new master.
Barriss were supposed to have a few more tattoos, but she refused to make them in Curruscant and actually was waiting for the end of the war to return to Mirial with Luminara to make them, as they did with all the others.
Barriss used to a lot shyer was a youngling and Luminara had to work really hard on her socialization to Barriss even talk to people outside her creche mates and creche master.
Being with so many clones during the war brought these timid tendencies back and it took a while to her be able to give her squad direct orders (she usually gave the briefing to Gree and he told the rest of the soldiers)
She absolutely hate her military title. Being called Commander Offee felt wrong, so she instructed her soldiers to always call her Padawan Offee. The shines never called that though (bc they thought it was disrespectful), so Gree gave them a hard time about it until they learn to respect her wishes.
Barriss was with Luminara during the prison of Ziro the Hutt and help her master to redirect a crashing ship that was about to hit several civilians on the street. This action end up killing to persons inside a house (that being Trace and Rafa Martez parents), and Barriss never forgive herself for it.
Her and Luminara actually tried to help the Martez sisters after the death of their parents, but the Jedi council keep them away from Curruscant, always in battlefronts. That was the reason she started to resent the order as a whole.
When she discover that Ahsoka Tano were on Geonossis (on the second battle) she planned on thank her for saving Luminara from Ventress on a previous mission, but she end up panic and doing the awkward bow we all know and love.
For some unknown reason Master Skywalker casually asked Barriss to go hanging out with Ahsoka everytime they were in the temple. Not that he needed to ask anyway. After geonossis the girls set studying sessions and lightsabers training on every opportunity they had.
Luminara was also very supportive of their friendship and believe that being around Ahsoka would help Barriss overcome her asocial tendencies (which was very much true)
Barriss is vegetarian. This is not a Mirialan thing, rather a initiative Barriss took on her on. That brought a lot of funny situations with her very much carnivorous girlfriend.
Barriss isn't very good with a light saber and relays mostly in the force during her battles (but this is practically cannon at this point after seeing her fight without a light saber during Tales of the Jedi)
Ahsoka actually helped her to become a little better at dulling and that's why she was so natural at dual heading on the Wrong Jedi arc, bc she picked up so much of Ahsoka's style. (She never master it though)
She thought Ahsoka a lot of the military strategies she memorized for her own missions and hopped that her lessons would be helpful since Ahsoka were send to even more battles that her.
One of her last living creche mate was Naddar (Kit Fisto's Padawan) and when the news about his death by the hands of General Grievous reached her she started to freak out fearing for Ahsoka life. She would had visions of the battles of the 501s and made holo transmissions regularly to check on Ahsoka.
The other crash mates that survive the Geonossis battle include Dante and Ahmar (the other inquisitors recruits from tales of the Jedi)
Barriss chose to stay in Coruscant after falling a mission that cost the lives of several clones on her battalion. She thought she could focus in her healing studies for a while and scape the horrors of war, but instead she saw scars in every Padawan and Jedi knight she knew and a Curruscant left to rotten under crime lords control.
And the worst part about that was the Luminara couldn't be around for her.
When the council began to push a promotion of her to a Jedi Knight just so she could lead a whole legion (they needed more generals after all) she finally snapped and planned to leave the order, but on her way out she discovered a group of protests that claim to fight against all the violence of the war. Among these protests she was introduced to Letta and her husband who played a part in Barriss's radicalization. (Barriss was not the only one to blame for the bombing and no one can say otherwise!)
After meeting Darth Vader she immediately knew that was Anakin, but never got the chance to have a conversation/confrontation with him. If she had given the chance she would ask for Ahsoka (and Vader would have kill her)
She did access the files on missing Jedi the inquisitors had I discovered that Ahsoka was supposedly death, but without a vision confirmation. She didn't believe that for a second thought, bc I somehow could feel Ahsoka present in the force, even if was weekend.
She also find about Luminara "prison" and was planning on suggest that Luminara should join the inquisitors (bc she believed the empire could be a good thing given how fck up the republic was) but never had a chance since she scape on her first mission.
Later on she tried to rescue Luminara, but by that time she was already death.
She couldn't rescue the body, but make sure to build a memorial/grave to Luminara on One of the moons of Mirial. She does visits regularly to bring flowers and meditate hoping to feel her master trough the force (which she managed to do)
On her last fight against Lynn she actually got stabbed on purpose to teach her friend a lesson and could heal herself very easily once they get of the cave (okay, this is just me being in denial but imagine how funny would be Lynn freaking out about Barriss dieing and Barriss being like "lmao did you really thought I was going to die from this? Girl I'm not Quin Gon Din, I can take a scratch!")

Hi! Your account is so great and I really appreciate what you guys do here.
Im not sure if there are many of these out yet, but I’m looking for good fics of what season 3 could look like. Like the events of 1 and 2 are the same but then we get to see them dealing with that ending.
Thanks so much!
Hello! Here are some series three speculation fics...
Armageddon Part 2: The Second Coming by Halfling (M)
Takes place immediately following the end of season 2 of the show. Crowley just wants to be left alone but he keeps getting interrupted. Heaven is MIA, Hell is up in arms, and no one can get a moment's peace.
what we could have been (and what we one day shall be) by meetmeatthecoda (E)
The next time Crowley sees Aziraphale after the day he broke his heart, entered a blinding white lift, and left him behind, it’s in almost the exact same place. Three interminable months later. That awful day, driving aimless and slow in a silent Bentley, Crowley wasn’t sure if he would ever see Aziraphale again, let alone so soon, considering the way they left things. He tried to tell himself that he didn’t care if he ever clapped eyes on his white blonde curls, steel gray eyes, and ridiculous tartan bow tie ever again, but the tears threatening to spill out from behind his sunglasses betrayed his true feelings. (Not to mention the random but persistent spots of bright yellow paint on his car’s otherwise pure black sheen, ruthlessly rubbed out with an index finger the temperature of an open flame.)
Bad Omen by lavender_mo0n (T)
There is a common misconception that owls are a bad omen, a warning sign for death and destruction that is to come. On the contrary, a better way to describe it is to say that they are a symbol of change. That change may come in the form of death, but perhaps that is more in reference to the death of life as we know it. And perhaps a certain angel is about to experience a ~very~ big change.
On the Side of the World by profdanglais (M)
The demon Crowley has gone rogue. Precisely what “rogue” looks like on a demon who was never anyone’s idea of “manageable” is something neither Heaven nor Hell is currently equipped to deal with. Hell is rebuilding and Heaven, under the auspices of the Supreme Archangel Aziraphale, is focused on spreading the Word of their prophet, known as the Second Coming--of what, exactly, remains unspecified. Neither side seems to remember who Crowley used to be, nor have they bothered to change the passwords. The Metatron has no interest in demons, rogue or otherwise. His Plan is going swimmingly and he couldn't be more pleased. Now if only he could figure out who’s responsible for all these unauthorised miracles that just keep happening, far and wide, on planet Earth.
Of Gardens and the Second Coming by Serenity_Black (E)
Starting moments after S2E6... The new Supreme Archangel Aziraphale is in Heaven, juggling the Second Coming at The Metatron's behest. Crowley is wrestling with his romantic realizations, and losing. What is it going to take to get our lovestruck beings back on track so that they can save our favorite Libra and all its inhabitants? And where are God and Satan in all of this? There’s a lot of ground to cover before this ends, as it was always going to, in a garden.
The Better Book: A Brand New Testament for the End of Days by HollyGhostLightly (T)
The Second Coming is underway and it turns out there are competing plans to determine the fate of the world! An unofficial/unauthorized Season 3 of Good Omens… to stop the bleeding. 💔 Excerpt: Aziraphale frowned as his intelligence was insulted once again, “How can you expect us to put our faith in something that lacks any detail whatsoever?!” “Let’s try to remember the plan is still technically ineffable. I’m doing my best to make it effable for you guys but some things are obviously outside of my abilities.” The angel growled, “Oh, the plan is effable alright! If you ask me, it’s completely fucked!!” “Real nice language, coming from an angel! You’re putting money in that thwart jar!”

Jing Yuan + Ekko Mini Comparison Yap
As I have recently watched the new season of Arcane and have slowly been getting back into HSR, I couldn't help but pick out traits/similarities between Jing Yuan and Ekko (besides their white hair lol).
Crazy Ex-friends
Obviously, for Ekko, there's Jinx. As for Jing Yuan, I think it can really switch between Jing Liu and Yingxing. Both have friend(s) who they used to be close with only to drift apart and develop different morals and groups.
Leadership
What more is there to say? Ekko is the leader of the fireflies (been a while, think that's what the group is called?) and managed to build a strong community. Jing Yuan is a general of Xianzhou and has fought many battles to protect his home planet
Doomed Family/Found Family
Doomed family - This could be grouped with the [crazy ex-friends] but I think this is a broader version? Ekko had a whole group he considered family, Benzo, Jinx, Vi, Vander, etc, only for them to be split/killed. Jing Yuan had the same thing with Bai Heng being their sunshine of their group yet is the only one to never had survived out of the five who drifted apart.
BONUS: The downfall of the groups could ironically be from a joint effort from people within their family/group itself [e.g Jinx's bomb which causes the deaths of her friends, Vi's anger with Jinx for said incident -> Dan Feng and Yingxing's attempt to revive Bai Heng which leads to Jing Liu becoming mara-struck due to her having to kill Bai Heng again...]
Found family - Despite this, Ekko and Jing Yuan still have new companions and friends. Ekko, who has a nice mentor like Heimerdinger [who refers to Ekko as "my boy"] and a clear father and son bond between Yanqing and Jing Yuan.
Nostalgia
Ekko and Jing Yuan experience nostalgia. Ekko, who looks at Jinx and thinks of Powder, or when he reunites with Vi and quickly starts bringing stuff from the past like, "I wonder where I learned that from."
Another example could be where Ekko goes to an alternate universe and meets an entire better off universe while still remembering his. He thinks back to Benzo, Jinx, Vander, Milo, etc..
DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE MEMORIALS/ART ON THE TREE..
Jing Yuan... Do I even need to talk about Jing Yuan feeling all old and nostalgic...?
Lonely
I'm gonna start rushing because I think this is becoming too long. But, the more I think about it, the more it starts to become clear to me how these two were left alone at dark times. Ekko, who knew Jinx was being guided by Silco, Vi got fricking arrested, Benzo is dead, Vander is dead, friends are dead. From that point, he's a young boy figuring shtick out for himself.
Dude, it is so clear that Jing Yuan is left behind and lives in the past. He thinks back to the days of the High Cloud Quintent. Despite everyone moving on, Dan Heng has the Express, Jing Liu doing her own adventures, and Blade with the Stellaron Hunters... Jing Yuan is still stuck at the Luofo, where it all began. And no one but the four he spent those times with will understand what they had with each other the most.
Sacrificial
To my final comparison, and my favorite, Ekko and Jing Yuan are (imo) sacrificial.
Ekko, who had the choice to stay in a happier universe, goes back to save his original one, which he didn't have to do, but did it anyway.
Jing Yuan, who dreamed of becoming a galaxy ranger, gave up on his dream to continue protecting his home planet, therefore becoming a general.
Even though these two had opportunities that would've made them happier, they chose to give it up in exchange for the safety of their homes.
[Cue 'It's On Again" - Alicia Keys ft. Kendrick Lamar]
HEADCANON: Both of them have survivors guilt
Okay, that's my ramble! Thank you for listening!
- OOMF KIT-KNOY

Doctor Who and the 188
Quick rant that may turn into a PowerPoint....
A stupid crossover between my two current hyperfixation shows. What new-who and classic-who era doctor who companions the 118 and friends would be (aka what I feel like they would act like as companions to the doctor):
Bobby:
Ben Jackson; Companion of the 1st and 2nd Doctor
We all know Bobby’s the one in dire situations to take charge and help wherever he can. Finding clever ways to fix situations or how to stop things. He would be the same as being a companion. Even if he has a hard time believing and conceptualizing the fact of aliens and other dimensions. He will make it his duty to help those on the planets he finds himself on, leading and guiding where he can. He also will definitely have a tendency to take people under his wing, while also being under the doctor's wing, trusting him (the doctor) but going against his orders at the times he knows he has to. Matching that same energy from one of my favorite early companions Ben.
Hen:
Donna Noble; Companion to the 10th and 14th Doctor
Listen, Hen and Donnie absolutely would match each other's energies. Snarky, takes no shits from strange aspects. Hunt down answers from hunches and let's not forget stylish as hell. I see Hen having a similar start to traveling with the doctor like Donna. Being placed in the TARDIS randomly and arguably freaking out, but also helping the doctor when he needs it the same day (I also head cannon that she would insist on finding out how he is a ‘doctor’). Her humor and antics would match perfectly with the doctor, as well as her quick wit and thinking that would help them get out of situations. If Hen was a companion she would also be like Donna, a potentially short lived one who became the viewers absolute favorite because of how well she can push and pull, as well as meld with the dynamic of the doctor.
Chimney & Maddie:
Amy Pond & Rory Williams; Companions to the 11th Doctor
I fully believe the Chimney would go nowhere without Maddie, and vise versa, especially travelling the universe and time. I see Chim and Maddie as married Amy and Rory, less of the pining for the doctor and more just a great throuple situation. I fully believe that chim would wait centuries for Maddie, and that they both of them would be perfect matches for the doctor. Also seeing Maddie as emotional as Amy and how perfect that would work for the drama is *chefs kisses*.
Eddie:
Sarah Jane Smith; Companion of the 3rd , 4th, and 10th Doctor
He is Sarah Jane to me on both ends of her time within the Doctor Who universe. From her standalone TV series with her son. Eddie would absolutely love and cherish his alien son. Protecting him and helping out other species like his son on earth, protecting the world from home. As an actual travelling companion, he would fit in so well. Able to follow orders, but also able to break away when he knows how to help or what needs to be done. Headstrong but sweet overall. Helping others without the worry of self-sacrifice. Managing to save the Doctor and his self-sacrificing friends time and time again. Just like Sarah Jane he would just mix so well and push the doctor to what he needs to do and who he needs to be. Also, would absolutely travel with Buck.
Evan 'Buck':
Adric; Companion of the 4th and 5th Doctor
Adric is my favorite companion and is arguably (for classic who) one of the most impactful companions. There is so much overlap between Adric and Buck (I like to imagine the doctor finding him after the lightning strike with his new math abilities, mimicking Adric's superior mathematical skills). Adric starts out like Buck 1.0. Both stubborn and thinking that they are better than what they actually are. But after being taken under the wing of someone, learn to care for others and become self-sacrificing in order to help and protect others, especially those closest to them. Both have a fear of being enough and abandonment. Buck absolutely as a companion would still be self-sacrificing, but kindhearted. I could possibly see him doing something like Adric as sacrificing himself, leaving a lasting impact on the doctor for life (but like buck always does manages to come back). Overall Buck would have a blast as a companion, most likely shooting off random facts with the doctor back and forth while being reprimanded for another stupid stunt.
Athena:
A mix of Both Martha Jones (Companion to the 10th Doctor) and Ace (Companion to the 7th Doctor)
Athena would be the most efficient and badass companion, but I also feel like that would absolutely lead her into a unique position with the doctor. She had Aces self determination. Wanting to fight and protect everyone around her, but also Maratha’s badass and rule following methods (as apposed to aces anarchy). Athena would be a great side hand to the doctor, if not just being able to handle herself in situations. But I can see similar issues to ace and Maratha. With the doctor (like ace) being upset about her straight to aggressive tactics. As well as Martha's headstrong determination to help everyone while staying in line with expectations. I think Athena would not be a volunteered companion either. Probably snuck on the TARDIS to investigate or find wherever someone disappeared to and quickly the doctor and her learn to respect each other. I could also see her being a secret part of UNIT.
... Thank you for reading my thoughts, please tell me I'm not alone in this lol!

yay okay! :- )
so i made him to fit in a story with some friends (@razatronz @gilyoungroach @seypia @nikogane) yippie i love having friends and i love voltron and i love having fun!!!
Marb so far:
- His actual name is Mypvsarbb (his parents might’ve hated him idk)🪪
- His younger brother Dazz (@razatronz’s oc) came up with the nickname Marb, and that’s what he goes by🧍♂️🧍
- He has a twin sister called Ari (a much normaler name, which supports the ‘his parents hated him’ theory)👯
- He’s altean, and his facemarks are green because of a rare genetic disorder ❇️
- He’s the yellow paladin of voltron🦁
- His bayard is claws (very violent tbh)💅
- He has a cat called Crystal, that he can communicate with (think allura and the mice)🐱
- He grew up with his family in an altean colony controlled by the galran empire. One day they manage to escape in a spaceship, and they travel around exploring different cultures and planets🛸
- One day the planet they’re on is attacked by the galra. Marb and Dazz managed to escape in a ship, but their parents and Ari are captured by the galra🪤
- His goal when he joins voltron is to get his family back, he believes they weren’t killed so he’s determined to save them⛓️💥
- He loves his brother a lot and he’s sorta freaking out because he’s older, and now without their parents around, he suddenly has to step up (he’s a teenager how is he supposed to protect his brother as they fight in a space war wtf) 😨
- uhh he’s kinda gay and weird🏳️🌈
- He’s like. has a small drinking problem but nothing serious🍾
- He has a permanent blush on his cheeks and ears okay that’s just how he looks 🤭
That’s about all i know about him now :- )
i like him. i think my favorite thing about him is that he’s Dazz’s brother tbh but i think that’s because i like raz. Oh wait, i like his bayard being claws, that’s cool.

Sorry for the long awaited 10th Doctor fic. I won’t lie, I was really trying to figure out what I was going to write. That’s when I came across this gif! My favorite duo! The Doctor Donna duo! They always had such a fun dynamic in the show that I said to myself “what if they were the reader’s Caregivers?” So please enjoy this cute fic!!
Who Broke The Vase?🏺💙
Caregiver! 10th Doctor, Caregiver! Donna Nobel, & GN Little! Reader (SFW!)
Tags - hurt/comfort, DoctorDonna duo are the cutest, stuffie, broken glass, mention of violence at the end (just playful banter no worries), hugs and forehead kisses
Nicknames - Mama for Donna, Papa for The Doctor, space boy for The Doctor, munchkin, little one, little rose, darling
“Are you sure you’re okay here by yourself for a couple of minutes?” Donna grabbed her purse off the counter top and looked over at me.
“Of course! You’re just going around the corner to the Tardis. I’ll be fine. I’ve got Sir Teddy the second to watch me.” I gestured to the stuffie on my left.
I was sitting in the living room, legos spread throughout the floor. I was making the coolest building for Mama when we both heard the sound of the Tardis in the distance.
The Tardis meant Papa was home! He always brings me the coolest gifts or even better he takes Mama and I on the coolest adventures! I wonder what it’s going to be this time.
“Alright, I’ll be back soon with Papa. Don’t you or Sir Teddy the second do anything stupid while I’m gone.” She joked with a wink.
I smirked and rolled my eyes, “We won’t.”
She walked over and placed a kiss to the top of my head and one to Teddy’s head before she left out the front door. “Love you munchkin. Be back soon.”
“Love you too Mama!” I called back to her before the door closed.
The Doctor Donna duo were the farthest thing from a couple. They are what you like to call platonic soulmates. On one of their adventures they met me and were extremely kind and compassionate about my regression.
They surprised me one day and said they would be my Caregivers, not as a couple but as two separate Caregivers both wanting to love and protect me. What more could a Little ask for?
I played with my legos for a little bit but I couldn’t really focus on them. I was so curious to what Papa had been up to since he left. Maybe he found a new alien race? Maybe he solved world peace on another planet? Maybe he saved another spaceship?
Wait! I looked into the kitchen at the fridge. At the very top of the fridge is the picture of the Tardis I drew with a magnet on top to hold it in place. And this isn’t just any drawing! I drew this one especially for Papa!
It’s Mama, Papa and I on the beach with the Tardis resting under an umbrella. Papa would find the Tardis to be so silly! He would absolutely love it!
So onto my feet and off to the kitchen with Teddy I ran! Except when I got to the fridge I had a problem…the drawing was at the vvvveeeerrrrrryyyy top of the fridge and was hard to grab, even on my tippy toes.
This was a problem, but not one I couldn’t figure out. First step was getting something to stand on. Mama has a step stool somewhere…Ah ha! In the pantry!
I grabbed the step stool and brought it to the front of the fridge. But even at the top step it wasn’t enough! Now we had to result to drastic measures. Holding onto the fridge handle with one hand and Teddy with the other, I swung him in the hopes that he would hit the picture and knock it loose.
I hit and hit and hit and with one final swing, the magnet fell and my picture slowly started to drift down. But I also hit something else…
Teddy’s leg managed to snag the handle of the white and blue vase at the top of the fridge. Teddy’s leg snagged it and threw it off the top, shattering it on the floor below.
I stood there on the step stool in total shock. My heart started to race as a million thoughts ran through my mind. One thought stuck and stayed, I am in so much trouble.
I’ve never been in big trouble with my Caregivers before. What were they going to be like? Angry, loud, frustrated?!
Tears started to fall down my face as my beautiful picture landed near the mess. What was I going to do? Was there enough time to clean this mess? Maybe Mama wouldn’t notice the vase missing.
But soon I heard Papa and Mama’s voice in the distance. I couldn’t think, I was just starting to panic. I just started to run, leaving the mess and my picture behind. I grabbed Teddy and ran upstairs to the safety of my room.
~~~
The Doctor swung the door open with his usual grin on his face, “Y/N! I’m home!!”
But instead of seeing his little one run as fast as they could over to him, he was met with a silence. Strange…Y/N is usually happy to see him.
Donna scooted past him and walked into the house worried, “Y/N? Y/N?!” Where had their Little gone?
Donna searched the living room finding the legos left abandoned. The Doctor searched around for any sign of the Little. He paused in the doorway of the kitchen.
“Donna? Did you have something white and blue made out of glass?” He asked over his shoulder.
“What?” Donna joined the Doctor in the kitchen as they looked over the mess.
Pieces of glass surrounded the fridge and the step stool. On top of the mess laid the picture Y/N had drawn for the Doctor.
The Doctor picked it up and smiled at the picture. He always loved all of Y/N creations. This one was especially funny to him.
“Doesn’t take Sherlock Homes to figure out what happened here.” The Doctor joked.
“You think they’re okay? Maybe they got hurt?” Donna looked around the room frantically.
“No, no, I think they’re okay. If they were hurt they would’ve ran to us right away. I think the accident just scared them.” The Doctor said looking over the pieces. “What was this anyway?”
“It was a vase my mum bought me. I never really liked it but she insisted I have it to lighten up the room. But she doesn’t know that glass and Littles usually don’t mix.” She laughed.
“You’re right about that.” The Doctor stood up and looked to the stairs. “We better see if they’re alright.”
“Hold on just a minute their space boy,” she grabbed his arm. “We need to be on the same page with this. No good Papa, mean mama routine anymore.”
“Well, it was just a vase. One you didn’t even like that much.” He pointed out.
Donna rolled her eyes, “The vase doesn’t matter. What matters is they could’ve gotten serious hurt while we were gone. That’s what we need to focus on with them. Just, follow my lead with this and don’t be mister good guy.”
“I’m not always Mister good guy! I’m stern.”
Donna just riled her head and gave him a look, a look that said ‘you’re the biggest softie there is’. He sighed, “Alright.” He pocketed the drawing before following Donna upstairs.
~~~
And with that the two made their way up stairs. They immediately went into Y/N’s room, their door was wide open but they were missing from the room.
The Doctor Donna duo was about to leave when they heard soft sniffling and sobs from the closet. The Doctor’s hearts and Donna’s singular heart broke hearing the upset Little.
The Doctor carefully opened the closet door and couched down. There in the back of the closet clutching their stuffie sat Y/N, tears running down their face as they cowered away. “I’m sorry! I’m sowry!!”
“Awwww, Y/N it’s alright. Papa and Mama are not angry. Come here, we just want to make sure you’re not hurt.” The Doctor said holding a hand out for them.
But they didn’t move from their spot. They just shook their head, “ ‘m fine.” They said with a broken voice.
Donna took a seat on the ground next to the Doctor, “I know you’re fine darling but Mama is so worried about her little rose. Could you come out so I can make sure my rose isn’t missing a petal?”
The Doctor smiled at Donna, knowing she would only save such a nickname for someone as special as Y/N. Her soft and gentle voice started to relax Y/N a bit. They crawled out of their spot and over to Donna who held her arms out to them. Y/N was then wrapped into Donna arms, getting a big comforting hug from her.
“There we are. You’re okay my little rose. You’re okay.” She whispered as she rocked them back and forth in her arms. Y/N turned and buried their face against her shoulder.
Now, let’s have a look at your arms,” The Doctor leaned over and lifted their arm high up then back down. “Alright this one looks to be okay!”
“And now let’s look at the right arm,” the Doctor did the same thing, overly lifting their arm then bringing it back down. “Everything look alright with me Captain.” The Doctor winked to Donna.
“Thank you sergeant.” She winked back. “We can’t have our best soldier getting hurt now can we?” That brought a small smile to Y/N face.
“Now let’s check on Sir Teddy the Second. Would you mind lifting his left paw?” The Doctor asked.
Y/N had stopped crying, watching the two with amusement as they first examined them then Teddy, making sure they were both okay.
Once the two Caregivers had settled their Little down, it was time to ask the big questions. “What happened to you and Teddy? Why did you leave the living room?”
Y/N expression dropped hearing that they could maybe be in trouble again. “I’m sorry! I’m really sorry! I didn’t mean to!” They began panicking again.
The Doctor took their hand in his right away. “No, no, no, we’re not angry! We were so worried about you. We thought the worst that maybe you got hurt or cut by the glass.”
Donna wrapped an arm around them, “Darling you know I didn’t like the vase Nan got us. That’s not an excuse to break it, but the vase is not what matters. You’re what matters to me.”
The Doctor decided to help, “Was it to get this beautiful picture for me?” He held the picture in his arms.
Y/N nodded, “Yeah I wanted to give Papa the picture with the Tardis.” They leaned over and pointed on the Tardis under the umbrella. “See, we’re all at the beach and the tardis is resting under the umbrella.”
The Doctor chuckled, “That is hilarious. I could just picture the Tardis resting under an umbrella. It’s a beautiful picture!” He smiled at the picture. But his eyes soon caught Donna’s serious ones.
He cleared his throat and continued on, “But while it is a beautiful photo. It’s not something that should put you in danger.”
“It was at the top of the fridge! I wanted to get it before you came home. So I used Teddy to get it and….the vase fell.” They tried to explain.
“Yessss but you could’ve asked me to grab it before he saw it in the kitchen.” Donna reminded.
“Oh…yeah…” Wow, that all made sense.
The two Caregivers couldn’t help but laugh. “Listen, I think you learned your lesson. Just never do something dangerous like that again please. If you need help with something always ask Papa or me, okay?”
“Okay. I’ll never do it again.” They shook their head.
Donna and the Doctor smiled then placed a loving kiss to the top of their head. “Then all is forgive darling.”
The three stood up but immediately Y/N put their arms up and made grabby hands at the Doctor. His face lit up as he picked the Little up and into his arms.
“There we are. Now, let’s see the present Papa brought home for you!”
“Present?!” Y/N’s eyes lit up.
“Yes! Straight from 45 BC Rome! You know I met Julius Caesar when I was there?”
“Reallly?! Wooooowwwww! Did you warn him he was about to get stabbed in the back?”
“What?! No! I couldn’t tell him that! It could change history as we know it!”
“That isn’t being a nice friend though.”
“Stabbing him in the back is not being a nice friend, I’m just protecting history.”
Donna couldn’t help but smirk at the two antics. Whether the Doctor liked it or not he was truly a softie when it came to his Little Y/N. But she wasn’t the stern one her mother expected her to be either.
Just like the vase she was breaking the model of what it meant to be a good parent or in this case a good Caregiver.
“I agree darling I don’t think the Doctor was being a good friend.”
The Doctor turned around shocked, “You two?! I can’t win can I?”
Y/N and Donna smiled, “Nope!” They both said together.

I'm in the mood to talk about DBJ lmao.
I love Frieza, he's the most iconic DBZ villain and a fan favorite amongst many but man, I really wish they hadn't brought him back in Super.
Frieza's an emperor, with many planets, people, and more under his thumb. So what happens to his meritocracy when he's gone? With my WIP, DBJ, which would be my version of events after the Buu Saga, I decided to explore that "what if".
To put it simply, Frieza and King Cold's death would create a power vacuum. Or at the very least, the potential of one. I'll paint the picture.
The tyrant emperor invades a foreign planet outside his jurisdiction in hopes of becoming immortal. He nearly dies to a fighter of a nearly extinct race after losing his strongest fighters, with the emperor being the sole reason for their genocide. Because he's a mutant, his body manages to survive being mutilated and he's transformed into a cyborg and he's even stronger. The emperor, his father who was the former emperor, and an army heads to the home planet of the fighter responsible for almost killing him. No one from the ship returns or is ever heard from again.
Chaos ensues.
Whoever remains of the Frieza Force tries to keep things under wraps, in hopes that the planets that lived under Frieza's iron fist won't learn of this development and attempt to stage a coup. Gossip travels at the speed of light apparently, and things get shaky. Revolts are widespread and contagious, various other mercenaries see Frieza's former planets up for grabs, and rumors of other Saiyans, a clan of Herans, stronger than usual Namekians, and a pissed off Cerealian are lurking in the universe somewhere.
The only person left to inherit the empire would be his son, Kuriza, who's a bit too young (and possibly meek) to ever lead in such a difficult time. Frieza reluctantly had his son asexually, as part of the mutation it couldn't be avoided. Frieza figured his son could be a last ditch effort for immortality; should Frieza fall, Kuriza is to form a squad of soldiers to find a set of Dragon Balls to revive Frieza and grant him immortality. Kuriza had been aware of this fact since the day he started talking.
However, with a good majority of his father's men slain, plans to revive Frieza are put on halt. For now, the royal vizier and the generals suggest Kuriza attempt to save face and clean up the mess his father's death had caused. But he's still a child and can't measure up to fill those shoes.
He gets help from his uncle, Cooler, who Kuriza immediately notices is a bit too eager to be a bug in his ear. Many of Frieza's former men feel Cooler is a much better fit to take over, given his experience and strength. With his resources and warriors, he's able to regain some control.
Kuriza also realizes that Cooler has no plans on finding the Dragon Balls to revive Frieza. Kuriza wasn't too enthused with the idea either, but at least he was somewhat honest about it.
Kuriza doesn't want to be the tyrannical leader that his ancestors and uncle were. Kuriza believes that relinquishing their grip from the planets and returning their freedom to them would be an ideal situation. With Cooler taking charge, and other rogue Frieza loyalists scheming behind Kuriza's back, with his cousin, Firn, attempting to steal Frieza's resources to claim for themselves, Kuriza is all out of options. His hands are tied.
And when one of the Frieza loyalists manages to revive King Cold, Kuriza, Cooler, and Firn are all deer in headlights as the former emperor comes out of retiring with a thirst for vengeance.
And with King Cold's secret last resort, the Z-Fighters need to deal with him quickly:

Mystic Messenger: Valentines Day Head Cannons
What these guys would do with you for valentines day! With valentines coming up, what better time to start putting out some valentines related content. There may be some references to the valentines dlc but mainly my own interpretation of what they'd each do/say. Also some of these will take place in the after endings and some wont.
Yoosung:
You're his first valentine so boy is STRESSED trying to plan something perfect
Will go to Zen for advice and takes detailed notes
Saves his money for a month or two to take you out to a really nice restaurant
Gets you a big bouquet of roses
When you've sat down for dinner this poor boy is sweating and a little shaky
He just want everything to be perfect
When you grab his hand and reassure him that anything he did would've been perfect because it was him, he starts to calm down
"MC you're the best thing that's ever happened to me. I just wanted to make this night as perfect as you!"
After dinner, he will take you to and ice cream shop for dessert and then take you to a park nearby to walk through while eating
He'll pull you to a bench nearby and share a nice stargazing moment
Excitedly explains some of the constellations and which stars are actually planets
Ends the night back in the apartment with cuddles and kisses
Jaehee:
Valentines isn't one of Jaehee's favorite holidays but she knows you enjoy it
Decides to plan a nice valentines day in since you both have been so busy at the cafe lately
Cooks your favorite meal for dinner and pairs it with a lovely wine
Followed by you favorite dessert and a cup of after dinner coffee
Feeling a little buzz from the wine, you throw on some slow romantic music and you slow dance with each other for a bit
"I'm so lucky to have met you MC. You changed my life."
Ends the night by falling asleep on the couch cuddled up with both of your favorite one of Zen's musicals playing in the background
Zen:
If there was a competition for most romantic, he would win by a mile
Wakes you up with breakfast in bed
Takes you out to do a couples spa day
He usually treats you like royalty but today especially
Gets a call from his 'manager' and has to go to rehearsal last minute to rehearse an important scene
Super apologetic but reassures you the valentines celebration of you will continue later
Sends you to the movies to keep you busy
Flash forward and Zen is picking you up from the movies and takes you to his secret spot that overlooks the city
You notice there is a whole elaborate sunset picnic set up waiting for you
"I'm sorry I had to lie about work. I just wanted to make today as special as you are"
After your picnic you head home and find the whole house dimly lit by candles and rose pedals leading to the bedroom and covering your bed
The man really is a huge romantic
Jumin:
I feel like he keeps his valentines plans pretty classic
He did want to do something extravagant with you like travel out of the country was a little confused when you said you couldn't accepts something so big like that
Ultimately after some explanation from you he understood and dialed it down
Takes the day off of work to spend as much time as possible together
Asked his private chef to make you a special breakfast
In the afternoon, you go have lunch on his yacht
And for dinner, he gives you a gorgeous outfit personally tailored for you, and takes you out to and extremely upscale restaurant
After an incredible dinner and a few glasses of wine he takes you home and you guy get a little hot and heavy
After certain activities take place, he draws a nice relaxing bath for you both to end the night
"You really are an amazing person MC. I can't imagine the rest of my life without you."
Seven:
Like Yoosung, boy is nervous and has never done this before
Does a ton of research on perfect valentines dates and romantic gestures to do for your partner of valentines day.
He decides to take you to a cat cafe!
But not before surprising you with roses first
He read he's supposed to do that and he's so relived when you love them
After the cat cafe, you go check out the new show at the planetarium
When it comes to dinner, he felt too much pressure going out to a fancy restaurant, he orders in some really nice food
To really help with the romantic atmosphere, he dims the lights, lights some candles, and starts playing some of your favorite music
He looks at you with so much love and adoration throughout the night
"Being with you feels right. Like I found where I'm supposed to be. I will never get tired of being with you. Thank you for loving me MC."
You finish of the night by having a movie marathon all cuddle up on the couch snacking on honey buddah chips in true Seven fashion.

So, a post for my post-ROTJ AU. I didn't know how to make it easier for people in replies and reblogs to see it so I just went over my notes and tagged all people who said that they really want to know more about that AU.
@bluephoenix1347 @champagnetoastie @unspuncreature @tranakin-skywalker @dilfdarthvader @sfinnigan @ringofsecrets @readerzj @sinead-smith-3 @comicblossoms @thatsnotahoodjason
It started as an attempt to merge my guilty pleasure trope (Vader lives AU) and my favorite pairing (obikin).
So here is a more detailed premise than I have in this post.
About half of the year before Endor some ancient Force artifact returned Obi-Wan to the world of the living. He joined Rebellion and fought along with other Rebels. They kept his identity secret so Vader didn't know that Obi-Wan is alive. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan was training Luke, including the basics of Force healing he knows himself.
Luke told Obi-Wan about his plan to save Vader and Obi-Wan wasn't happy. He was sure that Anakin will kill Luke or will turn him into a sith with his bff Palpatine.
He was very surprised to receive a distress call from Luke in the middle of the Battle of Endor. Luke was alive and relatively well but his father was dying. With a help of Obi-Wan Luke managed to support Anakin until they got to the medical ship.
So Anakin lives and is on the Light Side. Obi-Wan is still very skeptical about it (because I think it's fun). The Dark Side is temping and Anakin was short-tempered even in his better days. Obi-Wan tells Luke about that and Anakin overhears that conversation. He is very angry. He wants nothing to do with Obi-Wan.
It's actually hard. Rebellion often requests Obi-Wan's presence during Anakin's interrogations. Obi-Wan isn't happy about it but he goes anyway.
If Anakin and Obi-Wan talk they act like a couple after a very messy divorce. They are extremely passive-aggressive.
Meanwhile, after long negotiations, Anakin makes a deal with the Rebellion. He gives them all the information he has on the Empire and all the money he can get from his bank accounts (unfortunately Anakin is very bad at being a corrupted Imperial official, so they didn't get a lot of money from him).
Now they need to do something with the former commander in chef of Empire. It's tempting to use him against the Imperial army, but it's a very questionable move. Nobody including Luke can swear that Anakin will be a good (by rebel standards) pilot/officer, and also no rebel wants to be under his command. In the end, they find a mission with a low priority and send Anakin there. Obi-Wan leads the mission but his main task is to observe Anakin and decide if he can work normally in a team.
Obi-Wan doesn't want to be a nanny for Anakin again but he really likes the mission. They are sent to the Carati, a planet deep in the Outer Rim. The other inhabited planet in this star system, Surra, is occupied by Empire because of all the natural resources they have there. Empire never occupied Carati because it have no strategic or another kind of importance but have a lot of weapons. Local rebels of Surra asked the Rebel alliance for help and the Rebel Alliance with the permission of Carati authorities organized a mission for Surra rebels. One group is sent to Surra itself, and the other group, including Anakin and Obi-Wan, delivers equipment to Surra and brings refugees from there to Carati.
(I don't know if I need to tell you that part so extensively but it went from "a have to make a background for obikin" to full social drama with Anakin facing a lot of Imperial shit while being undercover as a regular imperial officer and Obi-Wan being like "awww the voter of Leopard Eating People's Face Party is really upset that leopards are actually eating people's faces". And they also passionately kiss to lure someone's attention away.
Anakin: You want them to think we are having sex after that 11-hour-long inspection.
Obi-Wan: Of course, they don't need to know that we pass information to the Rebellion.
Anakin: /suffering from the pain in every part of his body after he spend 11 hours on his legs with extremely incompetent imperial officers he couldn't strangle/ Nobody will believe that I am ready for another round of physical exercise.
You can read more in the post-ROTJ AU tag in my blog. I even have a ficlet here but it is in Russian.

Final Doctor Who TV Movie Thoughts
incredibly homosexual undercurrents. why’s the master Like That. they had to be doing that on purpose. i mean, just the robes alone. he dresses for the occasion. oh there’s definitely queercoding here. also he got tardis vored. nuwho bring up that time he got tardis vored challenge. no im not being weird about it i just want him to describe to the doctor what being digested by a time machine was like. did he enjoy it. wait come back i have more things to say about the movie-
eight is a sopping wet cat. i understand why he is beloved. i too wish to wrap him in a warm towel and/or beat him with hammers. he’s adorable. he’s fun. once again, somehow they managed to find a perfect guy to cast as the doctor. how do they do that. not a single miss so far??? out of the seven i’ve met??? not one????? incredible. loved his little vest, loved his humming, loved how he had absolutely zero chill ever and did not know how to Not talk about being a freak alien man, loved that he had amnesia for all of like seven minutes for no reason.
i really liked grace and lee. grace is a great straight man to the doctor’s bouncy nonsense, and she saved the day by figuring out the tardis :D also swerved the bullet of loving that man, thank GOD. get out of there girl. you saw what his ex was like. lee is my favorite kind of doctor who character, of which right now the category is him and lucy saxon. the master’s temp companions <3 love when that awful terrible man has to play nice to achieve his goals. love when he has to bond with people against his will. also hilarious to me that lee was just like ‘no, i really am just in this cause he’s gonna give me money and power.’ and the movie says he is RIGHT to want this, just wrong for trusting the master to give it to him, so he gets it in the end. good for him. direct action.
the plot was bonkers nonsense and that made it better. so funny to me that they retconned in the doctor being half-human but it never comes up as plot relevant ever and it will never be mentioned again. the eye of harmony is <3 bless <3 so fucking stupid <3 whys it take a human to open it. why can you open it when all it seems to do is suck up planets and time lord lives. why do they even have that lever. there’s like a horrifying implication here that time lords would keep a human onboard just so that they’d have a way to open their tardis’s eye of harmony. same energy as having a canary for your coal mine. i know this wasn’t intentional but it’s just fucked up enough that i almost want it to be canon despite it being so stupid, if only because it adds another layer to the doctor mostly seeming to gravitate towards human companions. but probably best if, like a lot of things this movie decides should be canon, we ignore it.
we shouldn’t ignore the master being able to goop people with his spit though. that’s hilarious. i wanna see them bring that back in modern who. look, any master would do BUT. i feel like for the best effect we gotta bring mr simm back so he can spit goop on people like a feral beast. here’s how saxteen can still win-
what else. what else. guys. that’s a really fun movie. it was Not good. but it was amazing. you get me? i had a great time. structurally it was a mess, the story was in shambles, but i do not care. all the characters were fun, the eighth doctor is fantastic, and i loved it. its probably gonna be a comfort movie of mine from now on. its just so silly.
