[pedge-page]

does tommy ever feel the wrath of joel’s pregnant wife or does she reserve that specifically for joel? I feel like tommy would get on her nerves a little bit 😂

I was waiting for someone to ask this! Tbh I think preggo wife saves her wrath for Joel simply because shes comfortable with him and can relax and let her guard down. With Tommy alone....

Tommy Dealing with Preggo Wife

Warnings: just language and Joel and Wife being insecure in their own (slightly toxic) ways

- - - -

You were super pregnant at this point. A couple weeks away from making Joel a doting husband to a doting father, and he was probably more on edge than you were. Your anxious little poor husband Joel, freaking out that he needed to take a weekend trip away, and the only person he can rely to watch over you--

"I don't need to be fucking baby sat--!"

-- his sweet, helpless, innocent little pregnant wife, is unfortunately, Tommy.

"Ok listen very carefully," Joel starts, now having Tommy's full attention like he's about to ask him to do his first heart transplant. "She doesn't go anywhere unless you decide. She eats what you put in front of her, and you don't take her shit. She's gonna be bitchy and whiny and crying. She needs to rest. Rub her shoulder, put her feet up, whatever. But you gotta tough through and just make sure she understands that you're in charge. And what you say, goes. Got it?"

He knows Joel is relying on him to take care of his most precious belonging...who also is the devil. "Ok...ok. I mean it's like a... like watching a toddler, right?" Tommy asks, unsure about the whole thing.

"Yeah... a pregnant one that weighs more than ya and swears and probably will slap you a lot."

Joel smacks Tommy's shoulder lovingly with an encouraging smile.

Tommy feels even more hesitant. but he knows that he just needs to channel his inner Joel this weekend: stern, unmoving, and commanding, and he'll do just fine navigating you.

Joel hugs you real tight and kisses your forehead, inhaling your hair deeply as if to etch it into his brain. "I love you, baby, I'm gonna miss you so--"

"Later fucker." you pat his bum and wave him off as you waddle away in his large T shirt towards the freezer drawer, pulling out a Ben and Jerry's fudge pint with wet lips and a grin.

Tommy shrugs and helps Joel out to the truck with his bag. he waves goodbye as his brother backs out the driveway, shouting "YOU'RE IN CHARGE!"

I'm in charge, I'm in charge, he chants to himself, taking a deep breath before entering your house again.

"Alright!" he claps his hands together awkwardly but with a tone leadership. "We are going to stay in bed today,"

"Mall," you grump though a big scoop of ice cream.

"W-what?"

"M'goin ta mall. Yur takin mee," you nod towards him casually, gulping another spoon.

"uhh-h." Tommy looks around anxiously. Was this part of the test? He should put his foot down, yeah, Joel said you go no where unless Tommy explicitly said so. "N-no."

you swallow. "'Scuse me?"

"N-no? I mean... no! I said, we are putting you in bed, and what i say, go--"

"Thomas Miller," you say, and an eerie sense of fear swallows Tommy, sending shivers all over his body. Despite the 90 degree forecast, its like someone just tossed his insides into a freezer, and you were locking him in.

"Y-yes...maam," he whispers, feeling small.

"We can either do this... the hard way," you tilt your head with a sinister gaze towards him, as if referencing that bit of "Joel" he's trying to channel inside. "Or, we can do this... my way." The way you smile at the end is somehow even more threatening than the chilled tone you're having with him.

It was like when he and Joel broke his grandma's vase, and rather than yelling at them, she had the exact same terrifyingly threatening voice, and it made Tommy sleep with one eye open for a week.

"What will it be, Thomas."

He remembers to breathe shakily through his nose, licking his parched lower lip.

He doesn't want to be known as the guy who got beat up by his pregnant sister in law.

-

"Do you want a pretzel?" you ask kindly.

"Ah... no--no that's okay--"

"I'm getting you one, honey, just say Thank you."

"Okay. T-thank you."

Tommy bites into the cinnamon sugar one with the extra glaze you had ordered, and he had never felt such sweet heaven.

"Joel used to yell at me for my sweet tooth," he admits as the two of you stuff your faces and waltz slowly down the mall halls.

"Me too!" you bump his shoulder heartily.

Tommy lets out a relaxed sigh. From the moment he agreed to do whatever it was you wanted, the weekend had been fantastic. Turns out, you're not only super fun to blast kareoke to the worst songs in the car, but also all full of warmth, laughter, and even more suprisingly, extremely generous at offering to spoil him rotten like a mother with her favorite child.

"What can I make you for dinner?"

"Wha--no I'm supposed to cook for you--"

"Tommy stop please. I want to make you something. You have to be stuck with me all day walking like a slow penguin. I want to do something for you. You deserve it. "

You hadn't noticed Tommy pausing along your walk, watching you in awe as you waddled about, gently caressing your tummy absentmindedly as you window shopped.

This was the demon that Joel complained about every hour of the day???

And even more concerning was: how did someone like JOEL manage to score a girl like YOU???

You were so peaceful, generous, kind, loving, all smiles and willing to take care of him.

Was he doing everything right or everything wrong?

The two of you return home, with Tommy hauling more gifts that you had bought him. He really wasn't able to protest, with you somehow disappearing from sight conveniently, to his horror that he somehow lost you like a puppy in the park, and then finding you suddenly swiping your card at a register.

He should feel bad, truly, but you were just in such a good mood, he didn't want to seem ungrateful. And he also.... really liked all of it.

"Oh these are so fuckin nice!" He cheers, pulling out the new sneakers you had just bought in it's wrapping paper. "Mine are--"

"Old and ratty, yes I know that's why I bought them. Sick of your nasty shoes trailing my house--"

"S-sorry--"

"Bought you some fuzzy slippers too so you can switch out when you come in."

"Im not really a slippers guy..."

"You are now."

You ended up making a quick spaghetti, slapping him away every time he tried to hover in the kitchen. "I wanna stand! good exercise!" you nod with a smile.

And it seemed like you meant it. Despite babyzilla cooking and ready to burst out, you were light on your feet in the kitchen. Like a ballerina dancing and swaying, you hummed to a tune in your head as you tasted the sauce on the spatula. You were in the zone, in your world. and it was genuinely... beautiful. He understood it now, when people say pregnant women glow. the entire time, Joel always said you did, but he only ever saw how tired the pregnancy made the both of you.

Was... Joel the problem?

After a hearty dinner, Tommy washed up the dishes. You said your goodnights and headed to your master bedroom, tucked in, and lights off just as Tommy gathered his pillows down the hall in the guest bedroom.

He sighs, laying on his belly and inhaling the fresh linen before closing his eyes.

Not more than a few moments pass before he hears some sniffles down the hall. Then again, a cough and whine.

He sits up and heads down to your room, the door cracked and dark. he flips the light switch on to see you sitting upright in your bed, rubbing your eyes.

"You okay?" he asks softly.

"M'good!" you give him two thumbs up. "Night!"

He nods and flips the switch off again, turning away. he doesn't make it two steps before he hears your unmistakable crying.

He turns the lights back on to see you wiping fat tears from your cheeks, sobbing into your shirt--Joel's shirt.

"Hey...what's wrong? Are you okay? ya in pain? What can I--"

You pull your face up, lips trembling and all tear soaken. He sees your clutching one of Joel's jackets in your hands, wrapped tightly like you don't want it to leave you. A completely emotional mess as you huff and puff.

He puts the pieces together. "Ya miss Joel, don't you--"

"I MISS HIMMMMMM!!!!!!!!" you wail, erupting into a long cry into the air with slunked shoulders and larger tears strolling down from the creases of your closed eyes.

He tightens his lips awkwardly, not wanting to let out a chuckles. Turns out big scary pregnant "later fucker" wife really did love that dumbass. Its also probably the first time he sees bags under your eyes, like you were hiding your exhaustion. When Joel is around, you almost never looked tired. Just pouty and groutchy like a spoiled senior cat.

Maybe Joel wasnt the problem, but the solution. He knew how to take care of you, knew what you needed when you needed it, knew when to put his foot down, and even when hed watch you two bicker and bitch, joel knew exactly how to get you in bed wrapped around him like gumby. Every. Single. Night.

He rubs your arm soothingly.

"Why"-hiccup--"did he"--sniffle--"leave me!"

"He aint leave ya, just had some work."

"HE HATES ME!!!!!!!!!"

He shakes his head, knowing you're inconsolable. rather than trying to reason, he brings you to his shoulder so you can cry your heart out on him as he hugs you. "There there," he hums, swaying you two side to side.

like a crying toddler indeed.

"M'sorry," you whimper, rubbing your eyes with your balled fists. "Wakin' you up, me crying like this. I can't--I can't help it some times..." your voice waivers, face warm in embarrassment that you're burdening Tommy so much.

"Don't sweat it. You did a lot today. Can I get you anything to cheer you up?" he suggests, expecting a trip down to the freezer for a nice tub of Ben and Jerry's Ice Cr--

"Can you get the jar of pickles?"

That...is fine too.

He brings up the largest jar of dill pickles he's ever seen in his life, sets them in your lap. He pops open the sturdy lid for your eager fingers to pull a long dill out and slink it into your lips. the satisfying crunch echoes in the room as you munch.

You start crying again. "I Fucking HATE Pickles!" you groan angrily before taking another generous crunch with a confusingly delightful hum. "Like--I hate it, but they're good?"

He chuckles, taking a piece. He pauses, eying you fearfully as if he made a wrong move not asking your permissions to take one of your hated yet coveted pickles. You nod, and the two of you crunch down on the peculiar snack.

"It's probably from the baby..."

"Fuckin' weirdo." you pat the rounded hump of your tummy and swallow the rest of your slice. Though, the way you stroke along the skin so delicately with a little smirk, he knows you're already in love with your "fuckin weirdo" baby more than anyone could love anything in this world.

Tommy never really thought about the word "uncle" until this moment, and the first emotion he has to associate it with, is excitement.

"Mkay. I'm done now." You hold the jar out to him so he can close it. "Thank you, Tommy," you say sweetly with the gentlest, sleepiest smile. "I really appreciate it."

THIS IS THE ANGEL JOEL HAS THE NERVES TO COMPLAIN ABOUT????

He swears, if Joel comes back and calls him up later saying how insufferable you are, he may just have to size up and smack his big brother.

Tommy pats your head, tucks you in again and turns of the lights.

-

The next day you make Tommy take you to breakfast and get him as many pancakes and French toast he can stuff his face with. A spoiled little brother indeed, and as he swallows another lump of the best breakfast eggs he's ever had, he wonders how sweet life would have been with a big sister like you spoiling him every day instead of Joel making him do chores and shit.

Its not until Joel is meeting the two of you at a lunch spot that Tommy remembers exactly what Joel always groans about.

"Hi baby!" He grins, rushing to give you a big hug for the first time in two days.

And despite your crying for him last night, you only retort with "sup fucker" casually and near bored, as if you weren't sniffing his jacket and Wagging your imaginary tail in disguise.

Joel purses his lips sarcastically, knowing you mean well, and Tommy laughs. You two definitely understood each other way better than he thought.

"Im gonna wash my hands, you two get a table," Joel says, and disappears down the back entrance.

Your waitress greets you just as Tommy is helping you slide down into the booth, big baby belly and all.

"Just three waters, please,"

"And a pepsi! Lots of ice. Two pepsis actually. And bread. And maybe like uh milkshake to start off?--"

The waitress glances at Tommy with a raised brow, wondering if you're genuine or not. He shrugs and nods, noting "she's pretty far along if ya can tell."

"My older sister was the same way. I'll get that in. You two...sorry I shouldn't say it but you two make a cute couple--" she says kindly.

Unfortunately, its exactly at the same Joel returns and hears that last bit, directed towards you and Tommy.

She walks away just as you catch Joels bewildered expression, conveniently with Tommy's hand on your bump and another around your lower back (supporting you into the booth of course but JOEL doesn't see it that way with this new context).

You and Tommy open your mouths to dismiss the claim and misunderstanding, but ever defensive Joel just shoves Tommy aside, slides into your booth next to you and slams your hand into his lap, his bear paws enclosed around yours. Tommy quietly slides into the opposite end, met with Joels flaring nostrils and billowing steam coming out of them.

The younger Miller realizes that slapping some sense into Joel and "sizing him up" was a total pipe dream. He'd be lucky to live long enough to an uncle at this point.

You gotta defend your poor brother in law. "The waitress just saw--"

"Cute couple, huh," he seethe with gritted teeth his entire seething focus at Tommy rather than paying any mind to you.

"Joel stop, Tommy was REALLY great to me this weekend--"

"Oh I BET he was," he grunts, turning towards you with a scowl. "S'that why he got new shoes on?" Joel damn well knows Tommy didn't just pony up and buy new shit for himself this weekend, given he refuses to buy himself anything new for years past it's expiration.

Tommy knows he's never allowed to baby sit you alone again at this rate.

"She was crying last night saying how much she missed ya," Tommy blurts.

You kick his shin under the table, not wanting to let Joel know what a pathetic groveling mess--

"Wait really!?" he nuzzles closer to your, as if all the anger in his body dissipated at the notion his poor little wife was calling out for her hubby.

Tommy chuckles and nods. "We shared some pickles in bed, ain't that right?"

You slap your face just as Joel rears his once again flaring red face towards Tommy. "You did WHAT in WHERE????"

Fav Aziraphale Moments in S2

Okay, I admit, I'm more of a Crowley blogger. He's my blorbo. But you literally can't love him without loving his other half. It's time to show some Aziraphale appreciation.

In no particular order, here are things Aziraphale did in S2 that made my jaw drop / breathing stop / otherwise really stuck with me:

Cradling the jar

Who would've thought hugging a jar of formaldehyde with a tumor floating in it could be heartbreaking? The look on Aziraphale's face when he learns it came from a young child, one that couldn't be saved, and the way his body language shifts as he tucks the jar close and precious against his chest, trying too late to protect it... Listen, I have really stubborn tear ducts, the final scene of S2 didn't make me cry (though it made a valiant effort), but I teared up at this.

Standing up to Crowley in the Job flashback

Really, the entire Job flashback is 10/10 for both of them. But Aziraphale especially shines when he steps in front of Crowley and says 'Tell me you want this.' They've only met a handful of times since the Fall at best, but Aziraphale is confident enough to call him out. And he doesn't falter or hesitate about it, either. He gets right up in the demon's face and makes him say it. Makes him lie outright that he wants to hurt anyone.

And then, of course, in front of the children, Aziraphale - no longer asking, now absolutely certain he's right - steps into Crowley's space again, looks him dead in his sinister eyes, and says he's dead sure those children are safe. Buddy, I had chills.

SPEAKING of chills...

I didn't know his voice could go that deep (Furfur scene)

Okay, I actually knew Michael Sheen could sound like that. But I admit, I 100% did not expect to hear it come out of Aziraphale. In the form of his own name, no less. I guess that's what happens when someone threatens Crowley right in front of him.

The sassy eyebrow

We've all talked about this but it's never a bad time to bring it up again. Shax really says 'You don't seem like his type' and Aziraphale's eyebrow says 'Honey you have no idea' right back at her. She can pry at his defenses in a lot of ways, but making him doubt his importance to Crowley is clearly not one of them. And that's really good to know.

Telling both demons and angels to fuck off

I was already giddy from seeing him go full Protective Principality at a horde of demons, but telling off the Archangels took it to a new level. He has had ENOUGH. Screw the angelic hierarchy, this is his bookshop and he's done. (Crowley giving him that oh-so-proud smile through the window without Az even knowing it was the icing on the cake. Yeah Crowley, I feel exactly the same.)

Honorable mention, again from the Job flashback: when Crowley says 'See you in Hell' and Aziraphale, instead of hesitating or having a crisis over it, defiantly sinks his teeth into the ox ribs again, tearing out another hunk of flesh. There's such a mood of 'Fuck it then, if this damns me I might as well enjoy it.' Fuck yeah, Aziraphale.

[dark-kingdom-stan-account]

Just like any self-respecting Utena fan, I've latched onto a (semi) minor detail that I just can't find a satisfactory explanation for!

(MASSIVE RGU (series and movie) spoilers ahead!)

As someone who has engaged with RGU supplementary material plenty, it often goes out of its way to point out how Miki's eyes are "like crystals" and similar things. You can see it in the game and in the light novels.

The fan translation is accurate in this case.

So after staring at movie screenshots one too many times, I noticed that his eyes aren't blue there... they're green! And he's the only character whose eyes changed like this.

What does this mean? My first thought was to connect it with the characters who most prominently have green eyes in the series - Anthy, Akio and Dios. The characters who have the most power despite also being the most trapped in the system, with Anthy in particular having the power in the movie and being the only one of the three who is alive - if some theories are to be believed, she was the one who created the world the movie takes place in in the first place. However, she's also the person most trapped in it too.

However, their eyes are definitely not the same shade. More on that later.

An interesting part occurs in the movie during the Touga and Shiori scene - we cut to Miki and Kozue in the bath. It seems Miki has grown since the anime - he accepts that there's no going back to their childhood, and tells Kozue she's still precious to him. In response, Kozue threatens him with a razor and calls him a traitor.

And yet, the next time we see them, Kozue has become a car, and he smiles after she passes by, not sparing her a single glance. What happened? Did she become a sacrifice? She isn't seen individually afterwards unlike Shiori or Wakaba, she becomes just another car in the locust crowd. Perhaps more unsettling is the reason he gives to Juri for being a duelist - "I always wish to obtain more power". Juri responds to him by calling it manly.

That fucking smirk haunts me. Anyway.

Pursuit of power - doesn't this ring a bell? Perhaps like a certain student council president? Of course, in the movie, Touga is dead, so perhaps someone else took his place in the narrative... Miki. The unsettling implications of what happened to Kozue seem to add to this. Not quite as sinister as Touga's relationship with Nanami, and there's no reason to see it as similarly complex, but also I don't see what else it could be.

So even though Miki appears to be pursuing power at the cost of even his sister, potentially, he's unable to get there. His eyes are not the same shade as Anthy or Akio, not even close - they're much brighter. He appears to have shed some of his innocence - no longer wishing to go back to that garden - but he traded it to pursue more power. No wonder he isn't ready to leave Ohtori yet.

An English-speaking person may also be tempted to connect this to the common expression of "green-eyed envy", and yet I'm profoundly unsure if this is the case. He's never shown to be envious of the power possessed by anyone (unlike Touga, he can't look up to Akio, who is also very dead), even if he and Juri see the ghost of Dios inspecting the cars.

However, no matter how much he desires power, in the end, he's one of the people helping Utena and Anthy escape. He tells them how to go to the outside world. He promises the student council will join them eventually. Arguably the most good-natured interaction Anthy has with any of them.

His eyes appear to be showing how much he's changed since we saw him in the anime, and in some ways, perhaps not for the best. However, he's not fully trapped in the hell of Ohtori Academy yet - there is hope for him, even if he's strayed into such a dangerous path.

In the end, I think all of them deserve their revolution, even if the road getting there is bumpy.

...Or maybe they thought it would fit him more to have green eyes idk lol-

Dungeon Meshi Volume 7 Part 2

And here we go!

Laicille shippers can have one panel, as a treat. I choose to interpret this as poor bisexual Marcille feeling way too flustered wearing a sexy dress in front of her friends. Plus when Laios softens his eyes like that, he looks uncomfortably like Falin.

Funny how it's these two in particular who feel this way. I'm sure this is in no way foreshadowing how they will be tempted into creating their own versions of this.

Maybe it's just a coloring issue, since it looks more natural in the anime, but Yaad's eyes are creepy as hell.

Gotta love aspic, the epitome of cool looking food that is probably really bad. Also, are they raising... rabbits?

Somehow, Izutsumi is less picky when in full cat mode.

When the DM really wants you to take the plot hook.

Real friends let their little friends beat them up cause it doesn't actually hurt. This is a beatdown(affectionate).

Senshi may be Izutsumi's favorite, but Marcille and Chilchuck are her parents.

Retcon? What retcon?

See? Not even the golden country folks really believe in that stupid prophecy. Honestly, I kinda love stories where there is a "prophecy", but divination magic is actually bogus.

What's wrong Yaad? He's just concerned about you. (The anime made this scene way more sinister.)

She's so excited! :D

Well, they tried.

A precious image.

So, this is Izutsumi's default outfit, yeah? Funny how it's on this volume's cover, yet I don't think we've seen her in it in a chapter proper. When we meet her, she's still in her ninja robe, then she gets Namari's coat. Seriously, we won't see this outfit until next volume.

Senshi has only been with them for like a month, but they are already so attached. I love this family of idiots.

Seems like a waste of a perfectly good centipede. Why make one(1) treasure bug, when you can make slitherpedes? (A horrifying chimera which is basically a giant snake with legs. Four fangs glistening with venom. Two vertical, two sideways. Armor plating and heat vision. Your players will love them.)

It's a little moment, but this really shows how dearly Marcille cares for her friends.

...says the one who uses forbidden ancient magic.

An important image.

I like how you can see Laios questioning why the hell a griffon would kick.

See, post-canon Marcille needs to teach Laios how to make familiars. He would have way too much fun. Plus, controlling a familiar might be a way to bypass the curse.

This is actually a pretty cool creature known as a Rod. Rods are a type of cryptid which are super fast rod shaped creatures which can't be seen by the naked eye, only with cameras. Turns out they're just bugs caught by cameras with long exposure times.

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind next time I prepare sky fish.

Local gossip girl baffled good friend was able to keep massive secrets from her.

With that, I'll go ahead and finish up with chapter 49 and the misc monster tales in a final post. See ya!

[misty--nights]

And finally, episode 8. This rewatch has been fun. It really forced me to pay attention to the details and I’ve found so many interesting thing I’d missed before. I think by now it’s more than safe to say that this has become one of my absolute favorite shows, and I can’t wait for my brain to insist I should watch it yet again.

Edwin's reaction feels so fair to me. I also did a double take the first time I saw Crystal swallow the memories. Love that Charles is trying to be supportive and stuff, but I agree with Edwin on this one. Those things are so big, how is your first instinct to swallow then whole?

Charles' face when Crystal is explaining her name is kind of similar to the one he has in episode 3 and 5 when Niko is doing something amusing. It's a mixture of endeared and a little baffled that I find so charming

Can Esther understand Monty in crow form or is she just pretending to have conversations with him like how you do with pets? Honestly, I'm not sure which one would be better. Both options have a lot of potential

Someone please give Crystal a hug. Or two. The way her voice breaks when she's talking to her parents, how her eyes get dimmer and dimmer the more she realizes that they suck and didn't miss her, how she sounds when she tells the boys about it, ugh. It breaks my heart

Back to another intro detail, but doesn't the surface of the mirror the skelletons go through kind of look like the mirror Charles sees himself in in episode 7. Like the frame is different, but the surface with the grid lines reminds me of the one in hell

I love the rooftop scene so much. Edwin and Niko have such a precious friendship and I wish we had even more of them interacting. Now I know I've seen people mention how Edwin is so comfortable with Niko's touch and how ge lets her cuddle up to him in that scene. But also, up until this point we haven't seen him truly iniciate touch with others (besides Charles) but he bumps Niko's shoulder when he's joking about Monty and offers her his hand to take. I just think that's neat

Crystal looks tiny next to Niko when they're talking to Jenny

"The whole thing was such a mystery" and "no rest for the wicked". The tone the officer uses for these lines? Chilling. I'm telling you, there's something weird about the people in town at times and the Port Townsend police are walking a line btween purposefully useless and downright sinister

There's something to be said about Crystal offering to wipe Jenny's memories, if she wants. We've followed her the whole season trying to get her own memories back, so it's huge that she's willing to take someone else's if that could help. Because she cares about Jenny, in that same, quiet way that Jenny cares about her and Niko. Also the way she emphasizes that she can take the memories only if Jenny wants that is actually so important to me

For some reason I always assume the girls are going to hold hands in that scene where they're looking for the Cat King and Crystal gives Niko her cleaver back. Even though this is the third time I watch it, I always expect it, and I'm always a little disappointed when all Crystal does is change what hand is holding her own cleaver

Not to question old dark magic or anything, but I am so curious as to how Esther's snake works. Did she already have the snake? Did she find it and make a pact with it? How does it transform little girls into youth for Esther? Also, the Cat King calls it Esther's snake, but then later on Esther says "I never thought I'd be eating kids to stay young and beautiful" so I don't know. Many questions about this

Tragic Mick makes a point of saying the bear figure is a gift and is on him, but the girls very much leave the store without paying for the salt so... Two gifts?

Niko keeps insisting she's not brave, but she was ready to charge into Esther's house after hearing Edwin's scream

Litty and Kingham's coats in the igloo have a dandelion decoration on the chest

X-Men 97 episode 5 *SPOILERS*

The interviews

The reporter seemed nice and doesn't act like a typical controversial one. And, seeing Beast blush was adorable. But, Scott's interview was a doozy. What he said when he lashed out, well....he ain't wrong. I just thought Magneto would be the one to say those things, not Scott. Still, not wrong.

Jean/Scott/Madelyn/Logan drama

UGH! I hate love triangles that bring out so much stress and drama. And, I'm worried that Jean and Scott will break up because of the crap Mr. Sinister pulled. I wasn't expecting Jean to kiss Logan, and it was HIM who told her to go talk to Scott. Despite his feelings, he's still trying to be respectful to their relationship. But, seriously, Jean, why did you kiss him?!

Then apparently, Scott and Madelyn were checking up on each other telepathically, which I get why Jean would be mad at that. But, Madelyn during her time at the mansion WAS Jean and Scott thought that was her! They're the same! At least they were? Then again, they're in contact for a month and Jean kissed Logan once....UGH! I hate this drama. SINISTER THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!

Genosha

Beautiful. It was a paradise for mutants. They deserve this. The gala looked pretty, I liked the statues of Charles and Magneto, I was not expecting the Hellfire Club to be a part of this council cause I don't trust them (especially the crap they pulled in the previous show). Lots of cameos from other characters that I couldn't keep track on, but the place was lovely. It's a shame though on what happened later on....

Nightcrawler

This lovely, precious German Christian man. 🥰 I love Nightcrawler and I'm glad to see him in this show. The original voice actor who played him in the previous show still does a great job voicing him. And, he approves of Gambit and Rogue (adopted sister) being together, so that's extra bonus points. He got a new look compared to his previous one, but I still like it. Then when the massacre happened, I was so worried that he was gonna die. Thank goodness he survived, but I hate seeing him so hurt.

Gambit/Rogue/Magneto drama

I hate this love triangle SO MUCH! We get an explanation on how Rogue and Magneto got together, and I'm questioning how old she was when they first met and whether Magneto was influencing her in a bad way. Either way, still don't like this ship. Even when them dancing looked good animated, I STILL don't like it. Plus, it still doesn't make sense cause they've been against each other in the previous show, where there was no signs of the two having that past relationship.

Anyway, I'm glad Rogue finally told Gambit the truth, and I feel so bad for him. But, he knew what she wanted and how much it hurt, even going as far as to distance himself, which he showed a lot of emotional maturity, so respect to that. But, that thing where he'll lead Genosha if Rogue stays as his "queen"? DA FUQ?! Look, I like Magneto, but I did not like that. Still wish Rogue could've gotten one of those collars to nullify her powers so that she can touch Gambit. Would've solved a lot of drama, just saying.

I was SO relieved though, that Rogue said that he was right, and rejected Magneto, but I wish she could've done that without kissing him right where Gambit can see it. Either way, it seemed like she'll choose Gambit and not stay with Magneto in Genosha, THANK GOD!

So, you think this would be the end of that love triangle right? Well, yes and no? Cause what happened afterwards hurt like hell.

Genosha Massacre

So, a giant Master Mold thing showed up, killing mutants and destroying Genosha. It was cool seeing Cable again trying to stop it and seeing his mom after so long, which is a glimmer of hope but I'll get to that later. So, many people died. Sebastian Shaw, Calypso, Banshee, Marrow, pretty sure that was Dazzler or Moira not sure, and three more that hurt me so much.

Magneto. Okay, I may not like that love triangle, but I didn't hate the guy. Dude was fighting that Sentinel with a train as a whip, that was pretty cool. And, he tried to protect the Molocks. He tried to protect Leech! He got Rogue and Gambit out of the way. What hurt the most was he told Leech not to be afraid IN GERMAN! Again, didn't want him to die. Although, I wished he could've used his magnetism to push the Molocks away like he did with Rogue and Gambit, but nope. They all died!

Leech. Precious innocent Leech. He was just a kid, man! And, he got to hang out with other mutants his age. He was making friends. Only for this to happen. And, not a lot of people talk about Leech and what happened to him. But, I liked him, and that hurt.

And, finally, the one that hurt the most.....Gambit.....Remy.

He went out like a hero. He sacrificed himself to destroy that Sentinel from killing even more mutants. "The name's Gambit, mon ami. Remember it." Well, now we know why this episode is called Remember It, cause it was Gambit's last words. And, if that wasn't enough, Rogue holding onto him, crying over his body, finally able to touch him....only to not feel him.

THAT. FREAKING. HURT. SO. BAD!!! 😭 Gambit was one of my favorite X-Men characters, and I legit was crying seeing that end. It really hurt to see that happen to him, but at least he went out saving people. However! There is that slight glimmer of hope! Cable. He tried to go back to stop this, who's to say he won't try again? Time travel shenanigans will happen and he can team up with Bishop and the rest of the X-Men to prevent this from happening. It happened many times before, it can happen here. And, maybe, just maybe, Gambit, Leech, Magneto, and all those people won't have to die. This may the denial talking, but I'll be so pissed if Gambit's dead and he Rogue won't be together for good anymore, cause that would be bullcrap.

God, how am I gonna be okay when we're getting Storm and Forge vs. The Adversary next week?! And, jeez, if things keep up like this, Storm is gonna return to the whole mansion on fire. I can't imagine what her and everyone's reactions are gonna be when they find out about Gambit and even Magneto.

Anyway, good episode. Much better than last week's. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go find a way to cope from all of that.

Castle Byers

Firstly I want to start off by saying how absolutely perfect this song is for the moment. It starts off so melancholic and hopeful. But as the song progresses, despite that hopeful happy feeling, something sinister and off putting is building under it until it overtakes everything.

It so perfectly suits Will and El's situation the moment she finds him. I imagine she was so relieved and happy to see him alive, but as the connection dims and breaks, leaving her alone, it must've felt awful.

In my brief previous post, I stated how not just the scene itself but all the context surrounding it makes this part of the The Bathtub so.......... perfect. So precious. It really shows the bond of the Byers family and El (and Hopper's) potential place it in before it was even on the table.

Originally, I was going to say it starts with Joyce and El's conversation but no, I think it really starts with Hopper and Jonathan.

First of all, the blooper for this scene is absolutely hilarious. But on a more serious note, I feel as though this is the first time Jonathan has ever even slightly trusted an adult man to keep his word.

"You have to trust me on this, alright?" I'm not sure if he really allows himself to trust here but he does take a step back and doesn't run off on his own again. Not until Nancy decides to follow through with the plan to hunt to Demogorgon. But when you really think about it, he still trusted Hopper (and Joyce) to find and rescue Will while he and Nancy dealt with the monster that would try to hurt them.

I think back to Lonnie planting seeds of distrust over Hopper being the chief. Or even how Jonathan ignored Hopper at the beginning of the season and went to Lonnie's house to search for Will himself.

The change is in no way dramatic or intense, but changes with Jonathan rarely are. This little moment of "... Alright I'll trust you." without actually saying the words and even the still doubtful expression makes me hope for more Hopper and Jonathan scenes in the upcoming season.

Then we have this moment. You must remember, Joyce and Hopper just went on a wild goose chase researching the lab and ended up discovering El existed. Not only that, they met her family. They met her mother that spend more than a decade looking for her and trying to save her.

I feel after Season 1, they don't focus much on just how similar Joyce and Terry are. If Joyce were in Terry's situation, I think she would've also busted into Hawkins Lab with a gun to get Will or Jonathan out. Joyce doesn't know about the details of that of course, but I still think Joyce saw a lot of herself in Terry.

It was this scene that really opened by eyes to El becoming a Byers someday. This is their first time meeting and yet Joyce knows exactly what to say. Exactly how to comfort her. Exactly how to give her confidence and thank her for all her hard work.

You can see how much El struggles to understand Joyce's kindness and warmth. Whenever Papa "asked" her to do something, it obviously wasn't a request, but an order. When she faced something scary or experienced something painful, Papa was really there to give her comfort, he was there to make sure she could keep going.

I wonder if El trusted Joyce to her word and be there for her when things to too scary or difficult, or was it empty promises like before?

And then like a proper mom and dad of a supernatural child, they help her into the bath. It's just kinda cute.

Of course, can't forget to mention when she finds Barb dead and starts freaking out, Joyce is there as she promised. I noticed though Hopper was trying to hold her hand too while she was flailing, she grabbed onto Joyce instead. earfrawed

The void is such a lonely place usually, I wonder if this is the first time she's ever heard someone on the outside calling out to tell her it's ok and she's not really alone. Maybe I'm getting too deep in my feelings but I can't help but wonder.

There's this tiny Joye and Jonathan moment when El announces her new location (sorry about Barb, Nancy). Castle Byers. Castle Byers on the rightside up was one of the first places Joyce and Jonathan looked when they were searching for Will on their own. They weren't wrong to check there. Makes total sense even in another world he'd be there yeah?

And then...before Castle Byers plays, there's nothing but quite droning and her wet footsteps as she gets closer.

And then she says his name so softly and the music starts ahhhh. It's so sad but so so precious??? This is where my theory brain started going ".... Oh. This moment is something more." I've been a delusional Hopper-Byers family fanatic since then! :D

This specific frame lives rent free in my brain. How does it touch my heart so? To see this poor lost girl trying to help this poor lost boy and then the fact that they later become family??? It's just all too perfect. Do you understand my feelings???

Anyway, what partially spurred me to write this post is reexamining the one thing Will said during this scene and his mental state during this conversation.

Firstly, it's unclear if he's even awake or if he remembers this moment. In the show, Will hasn't really said one way or another if he remembers this or not. Even in the comics, when this happens, it's presented like Will is hallucinating something from his d&d stories.

It's been how many years since this happened in the show? Yet it doesn't seem like Will has told anyone about his experience in the Upside Down whatsoever.

When the Hawkins crew in S4 got trapped in the Upside Down, they had to figure out the lights and hearing people on the other side all by themselves because clearly Will hasn't told any of them. Not even Nancy knew and I feel like Jonathan would've informed her of anything Will said regarding Upside Down stuff at least, right? She was so traumatized by the place and though her stint there was brief prior to S4... I dunno. I feel like if Will told them stuff, Nancy would know the stuff.

Back to the actual scene, what had me pondering things was Will saying "Hurry."

I mean, look at him. He's clearly unwell and I'm sure he'd love to go home right now so saying "Hurry" is not weird or anything. But it had me thinking, "Did Will know or suspect something was going to happen to him very soon or that he was "running out of time""?

I know that's a stretch, but it just stuck out to me all of the sudden. Immediately after this, he is captured by the demogorgon or something else.

We have NO idea what really happened over there. We have no idea how much Will remembers.

I can' really call this a theory, just speculation that there is something more here than meets the eye. But, let's get back to the family feels.

I love this little moment of Hopper hearing Will's voice and looking so determined. Season 1 Hopper best Hopper (I like S2 Hopper too though). The drive the becomes stronger and stronger to save the child of his former/new best friend/crush/lover/whatever the hell they were Joyce is.... he's a good guy.

Jonathan just watching Joyce reassure Will that they're coming over and over. I wonder what he's really feeling in this moment. I mean, he's probably feeling just as determined as Hopper and Joyce. But seeing stuff like this makes me wonder what he thinks of El.

Is he amazed? Is he afraid? Thankful? I just wish we got more of his feelings about it all.

I'm so sad we didn't get more sprinkles of Jonathan and El content over the years. S3 and S4 gave us a wee bit but still not enough.

There's this itty bitty detail that is completely irrelevant but for most of this scene, Will is not holding El's hand back. But at some point, he does hold her hand back but starts to let go at the end of the scene. gseranodwe

It's hard to see when it's not in action, but I'm much to lazy to make a full gif right now.

There's two moments when she panics like this. It's during this scene and when she loses contact with her mother in season 2. I've always wondered why she has such a strong panic when losing connection like that, especially with her mom in S2.

I can sort of understand here because Will is in a precarious situation but her mom definitely wasn't. Was her reaction to her mom disappearing PTSD from Will disappearing? Or is it when she uses her powers in this way, it's disorienting or painful when it ends abruptly?

AHHHH. I love this so so much. Joyce just holding her and reassuring her and giving her kisses on the forehead and everything. God, they are so freaking precious oh my god.

"You did so good." I cannot even a believe this woman has so much love to give.

Anyway. That's my rant of the day about the excellent amazing and beautiful Castle Byers scene accompanied with music.

Bonus: Lucas making sure El is warm, he's the best.

DIABOLIK LOVERS DAYLIGHT Analyzes [ Vol. 4 Sakamaki Subaru ]

Original title: 不機嫌の理由

Source: Diabolik Lovers Daylight Vol. 4 Sakamaki Subaru

Seiyuu: Takashi Kondou

Analyzes by: Admin Afra

Admin's note: Finally, it is the turn of Tsundere boy. Of course, we all know that Subaru and Yui's ship is one of the most famous ships in the fandom. I used to think that maybe one of the reasons is Subaru's shyness and how he shows his tsundere side in front of Yui. But Subaru's feelings are much bigger than these words. This guy is willing to give his heart to the girl he loves more than anyone else and he doesn't care what happens to him even if it means he won't breathe again in this world, he still doesn't care because His heart will beat in the body of Yui, who is more precious to him than anyone else.

The flashback left me with a lot of questions. For example, are the legends of demons real or not? Maybe this is something we can investigate outside of the daylight series, but in my opinion, the fact that Subaru could not find that fruit does not mean that it is not real.

Let's go back to the story. Surely someone must be so important to Subaru that he would put all his hope in a legend. I understand Subaru's dark and sinister side well and I can say that this boy has really improved, especially since he is looking for a small glimmer of light in his black pit of despair to save Yui.

Maybe we can say that this is not something important because all the boys did it. But if we have a brief overview of their behavior in the first seasons, we will realize that this progress is really admirable. Especially about Subaru. who is ready to believe a fairy tale even if it seems ridiculous to him to save Yui.

After the flashback, as usual, a normal routine begins, which is very annoying in Subaru's opinion. Why? Because, as usual, Yui puts the wishes of others before het own, and this is what torments Subaru the most. It's not like Yui can reject others' requests very easily like Subaru, but this is what Subaru expects from her.

For Yui, it doesn't matter what time of day or what day it is. In any case, she accepts others' requests and this can have two reasons. Fear of punishment or kindness and naivety. I myself prefer to say the second case. Of course, I don't deny that Yui is afraid of punishment because she has gone through a great journey with the boys and endured severe torture from them. But if we take a look at Yui's life, we will realize that she has always been like this. Not just about boys but about all people. For example, if someone makes a request to her, she nods her head with kindness and a sweet smile, rather than rejecting the request. And this is what Yui is and makes it stand out from the rest and be special. She does not expect anything from anyone and does work for them without regret.

But apparently Subaru is not happy about this and blames Yui for paying so much attention to the wishes of others. I will put my thoughts at the feet of Subaru's jealousy. Subaru, as someone who has never seen the love of his mother and suffered a lot because of his mother's bipolarity, does not want to lose someone who really loves him from the bottom of her heart. Maybe Subaru is afraid that Yui will turn away from Subaru's love like his mother and stop loving him. It can be said that this is normal from a boy who wants nothing from life but love.

When Subaru decided to punish Yui, Yui's trembling and weakness scared him a lot. This means that even if Subaru is rough with Yui or angry at her, the first and last thing he thinks of is Yui and he never wants to lose her. At that moment, Yui's illness was not very serious, and only a simple tremor in Yui's body made Subaru panic. Because Subaru sees his own life in Yui's life.

Realizing that Yui only listens to others' requests because of her loyalty to Subaru so that they don't drink Yui's blood makes Subaru regret and you can understand this regret in his words. Subaru doesn't express his apology in words and tries to show with his behavior that he is sorry and this is because he is a little shy.

After Subaru notices Yui's absence at school, he decides to skip classes and return home. Well, I never thought of Subaru as a responsible person, so it's quite normal that he worries about Yui more than school, even if he thinks Yui's illness isn't too serious.

But in any case, Subaru is upset with Yui for not telling him about her bad health. When it comes to Yui, Subaru never likes to fall behind his brothers, that's why the fact that he found out about this later than Ayato bothered him a lot. It can be said that Subaru is somehow jealous that he is not as close to Yui as Ayato because only Ayato is in the same class with Yui and he found out about Yui's situation earlier.

Maybe we find it very funny that Subaru is angry with Yui for such a small matter. But don't underestimate the Tsundere boy. When it's Yui, he gets jealous very easily.

In any case, the fact that Yui hid her illness from Subaru upsets Subaru more. You can understand that Subaru wants Yui to feel comfortable with him and not to hide anything from him. Because Yui is the only person that Subaru trusts and Subaru wants Yui to feel the same way about him.

But it was very interesting to me that Subaru called Yui unlucky because she has Cordelia's heart and is chosen as the legendary Eve. Because many people consider Yui lucky to have Cordelia's heart and it is because of Cordelia's heart that she is still alive. Well, with Subaru's words, we realize that this thinking is completely wrong. Cordelia's heart did not save Yui, but her kindness and wonderful personality and her golden heart made her survive until now. Otherwise, the boys would have killed her a long time ago. Apart from that, Yui is not lucky to have Cordelia's heart. On the contrary, she is very unlucky. Because Cordelia's heart has only taken away her freedom and happiness, and also her life. It is not easy at first glance, but if we pay close attention, we will realize that Yui was chosen because of having Cordelia's heart and fell into this hellish life. Something Subaru confirms here. Having Cordelia's heart has caused Yui to be hurt by many people and her life becomes shorter and shorter. Well, this is not something that can be called happiness or good luck, but it is exactly the opposite of this obvious example of bad luck.

Yui's thinking is different because her heart made her meet Subaru. Well, maybe this is normal from Yui. After all, she is the girl who easily forgives others and forgets their mistakes. This even makes Subaru upset about it. Because he knows Yui deserves more than this. Yui's kindness and compassion only hurts herself and this is what upsets Subaru.

I can say that just like Reiji, Subaru believes that not only himself, but this world needs a person like Yui, and this thought gives him the motivation to try to save her life.

I cried after Yui donated her blood to Subaru despite her illness. Yui is not in good health and is worried about Subaru's bad mood. She blames herself for not being able to offer her blood to Subaru.

After drinking Yui's blood, Subaru talks about its strange taste and it is here that Yui becomes disappointed. Not because she is sick, but because her blood is no longer special. I can understand why Yui was upset about this.

Yui has suffered the most severe torture and punishment from these boys and if we remember the first CDs and games, almost all the boys have told Yui several times that the only thing that makes Yui special is her blood and Or all her value is because of her blood and she has no value and blah blah blah.... Honestly, if I didn't know Yui well, I would say to myself that she was just disappointed by all this and decided to deal with her fate. But now that I know het well, I realize that she accepts this issue not for herself but for the person she loves.

She thinks that if all her worth is in her blood, then she will give her last drop to someone she loves, and it doesn't matter what happens to her, and it doesn't matter if she enters a hellish life. She thinks that the boy she loves has suffered enough, and if her blood makes him even a little bit happier, she will give it to him, even if she has to endure a terrible life.

This was exactly what made Subaru angry. He hates Yui's behavior. That Yui doesn't care about herself at all and she doesn't care what will happen to her. Don't do this, Subaru wants to scream at the top of his lungs. "You are worth more than me and my brothers. You deserve a better life. You should worry about your health and life, not that your blood is no longer special. Think about yourself, not worthless creatures like us."

It's hard for Subaru to express these feelings in words, that's why he just yells.

In any case, Subaru tries his best to save Yui. He apologizes to her and tells her that "I don't care about your blood at all. Your existence is precious to me. You were the one who saved me from the monster inside me and that's why you are dear to me."

Subaru sees his own life in Yui's. Because Yui was the only girl who did not look at him with the eyes of a monster and understood the goodness and beauty inside him and called him beautiful. Subaru does everything to save her. And when he sees that Reiji is useless, he gives his hope to the legends, even if this legend is not true, but it gives him a small hope that Subaru will try his luck. Because Yui is the only person he never wants to lose.

How does Subaru describe Yui's fake coma to keep herself alive?

"Your heart is not beating. Your skin was white as if you were really dead. At that moment, my heart stopped. I would give anything for you to breathe again. my foot, my hand, my arm....everything."

This sentence simply describes that if Yui disappears from this world, Subaru will also disappear. If Yui doesn't live in this world, Subaru has no reason to stay in this world. This simply shows that Subaru loves Yui more than his own life, that he is willing to give his whole being to Yui so that she can live and breathe.

Yui considers Subaru to be kind, but why does Subaru not approve of Yui's thinking. Because Subaru simply knows that he will never be as kind as Yui. Yui is willing to sacrifice her life to make the person she loves happy, but Subaru wants to sacrifice his life to be satisfied and happy, so Subaru considers himself selfish, not kind.

Subaru doesn't like churches, but he's willing to take her to church to make Yui happy. The church where they first met, and according to Subaru, both of them have changed a lot since then.

In any case, Subaru is not willing to watch Yui die and even if he can't find a magical fruit to replace Yui's heart, he is willing to give his heart to Yui. And he does it for himself, not Yui. He can't live in a world without Yui and that's why he wants to keep her alive at any cost.

Honestly, I find this very kind of Subaru. In any case, even if he is not alive, he knows that his heart will beat in the body of the girl he loves. Yui might cry, but as Subaru said, if you don't want to lose me, you need to know how I feel. Subaru doesn't want to lose Yui either.

Yui is precious to Subaru. More than anyone and anything else. Yui is the rose that shines in the dark for Subaru and makes him smile. Yui is a treasure that Subaru never wants to lose. Even if he gives his life to Yui.

How Subaru survived the loss of his heart left a lot of questions, but I think the ending was more symbolic. A symbol of a bridegroom who surrendered to the pure love of a girl.

"You're still my girlfriend?"

Tara Carpenter x Amber Freeman

Summary: The conflict between Amber and Wes ends badly. Tara's an observer.

Words: 991

Warnings: Wes' death.

Love creates cruelty, because it's a great excuse to do terrible things. But are they really so terrible? After all, they are done for love, for the person you love. Or maybe it's a lie and it all comes from selfish and possessive motives that Amber couldn't suppress, and saw no reason to go against them. She was guided by these feelings. She was ready for her girlfriend to do any terrible and wonderful feats that would show how strong her love for her was.

But where did it all begin? Wes, Wes, Wes. That pain in the ass was hanging around Tara like a pesky insect that she wanted to swat away, get rid of. To stab a knife right into its ugly throat with extreme cruelty and watch it bleed to death. The fear in his eyes. The realization that his life would end soon because the killer wanted it to. A very jealous killer, which was Amber. Well, or she was going to be.

Only Tara could calm Amber, take her mind off of it. For a while. After all, she was the reason, so seeing her was a reminder that sheMUST do what she set out to do.

“Amber... what have you done...?”

Tara's voice was shaking with shock and the inability to believe what she was seeing in front of her now. The question hung in the air, as it did not need an answer. She was the answer. The black costume of Ghostface, the bloody knife in her hand, and that satisfied smirk on the face of the girl who could hardly contain her excitement at what was happening at all. More and more blood was spreading on the floor of the Hicks house right beside the breathless body of the boy who thought he was safe, who thought his secret crush on Carpenter would go unnoticed, but it wasn't.

The mask was removed and now Amber appeared in front of the girl in all her greatness. It was she who held the knife tightly, the blade of which entered the flesh of her victim so easily, and it was her gaze that devoured every bit of the moment while Wes was losing the fight for his life in horror. He was dead. For real. That's why Amber's heart was beating wildly in her chest, because she did it. Love and death go hand in hand and it was something that the girl saw as inseparable. And yet…

Tara was terrified and Amber saw it in her eyes when she looked at her treasure, her precious babe, who now had to prove to her how much she loved her. She does love her, doesn't she? Ready to accept her and even reward her with a kiss for such a sublime display of love. Isn't that how it should be in their perfect story of two girls willing to do anything for each other. Of course Amber was scared, she longed for this moment, but she was also afraid of it most of all.

Step by step, she approached Carpenter, taking her time so as not to scare her, but Tara didn't go towards her, but began to back away, eventually resting her back against the wall, not understanding what to expect next from the person who was everything to her and with whom she felt safe. Will this feeling stay with her or will it be replaced by fear?

“Look! See what I've done? Isn't that cool? He annoyed you.”

There was not an ounce of remorse or sympathy in Amber's words, there was cruelty in them, something sinister that Tara could hardly understand, but how could it be understood? Was it “cool"? It was very difficult to think about it now, when the brunette was standing so close to her, when her hot breath was felt on her cheek to goosebumps. When there was no escape route left. Amber sadistically dealt with Wes, but her touch to her lover was gentle. She touched her the same way when they were alone in bed and when they were hiding in the school back room. Back then, it made Carpenter feel butterflies in her stomach, but now it felt like torture and her stomach was twisting treacherously with fear.

Amber leaned closer to her, her breath tickling her ear and her hand resting on her neck where Tara's rapid pulse could be heard so clearly. Her head was dizzy from such an intensity of feeling, but it was what the brunette needed.

“I did it for us.”

Amber's smile widened, because she desperately wanted to say these words, so intimately and close to Tara, who at that moment squeezed her eyes shut and whimpered, continuing to stand in a daze. It was a turning point in their relationship and nothing should have ended badly. It was just the murder of some jerk who didn't even matter. But it mattered to Tara.

“You killed him... You're a monster.”

Amber's body twitched as they lay in bed with Tara in an embrace and watched the horrors on TV on such a calm and cozy evening, one of many that they appreciated more than not leaving each other. The girl's fantasies sometimes went far, but they came from the heart. She wanted Wes to be dead. She wanted to kill him with her own hands, but she also didn't want to lose her beloved. This was what she was afraid of the most, but this fear would not stop her from doing what she wanted, but would only push her to come up with a plan to leave her girlfriend by her side in any case.

With a faint smile, she glanced at Tara, who looked up at her worriedly, wondering what was wrong. Amber only hugged her tighter, taking her hand with the same tenderness, and leaned closer to give her a kiss.

“Nothing, babe. Love you.”

Alastor x Chris (Vore)

Summary: Angel asks Chris if she could babysit Fat Nuggets for a few hours while he's away. She accepts because Fat Nuggets is an adorable pig in all of hell after all. Now, she must make sure Alastor, the Radio Demon, doesn't try to eat Fat Nuggets and to protect him, she either makes a deal with him or perhaps joins him for dinner.

A/N: I haven't figured out what kind of a demon Chris would be, so, just use your imagination about what you think she'll look like for now. I'll eventually come up with it sooner what her demon form looks like.

"Are you sure you know what you're doing, Chris?" Angel asks her again for the fourth time.

"Angel, you know I'll protect Fat Nuggets with my fucking life, right?" Chris smiles, trying not to squeal too much while watching Angel and Fat Nuggets being cute to each other as Fat Nuggets licks Angel's cheeks. "You'll only be gone for a few hours. So don't worry a thing, alright." Angel sighs.

"Okay. Just make sure he stays happy." He said and handed over his pig to her.

"Don't worry. I will." Fat Nuggets snorts before he boops his nose with Chris's nose. You are so precious, Fat Nuggets!

Minutes later, after Angel left, Chris took care of Fat Nuggets by feeding him some cherries she stole from Husk while he wasn't looking. Sitting on the couch in the hotel, petting his cute little head as he oinks.

"Fat Nuggets. You are so lucky to have Angel. Even though he's a total dick and an asshole, but I can already tell you make Angel’s life sweet." Fat Nuggets respond by nibbling her fingers. I would fucking die for you. She smiles until she hears someone humming a song. Oh FUUUUCK! Chris cannot let him get his hands on Fat Nuggets. She looks around for a place to hide Fat Nuggets and herself. Nothing in here will keep them safe from him. She picks him up, leaves the room before rushing to the kitchen, opens one of the cabinet doors, and crawls inside before shutting the door.

She brings Fat Nuggets close to her as his spots and eyes glow bright pink. Fat Nuggets snorts at Chris as she shushes him to be quiet. She does not want him to find out she's taking care of Fat Nuggets while Angel is away. Surely, he's just passing through and then returning to his room later.

Wrong! She hears him coming into the kitchen as he continues humming the song. It is starting to become more glitchy and creepier. Why is he fucking here?! Fucking leave! Chris begs while bringing Fat Nuggets close to her chest. Imagine him opening the cabinet door; who knows what he'll do. Well, he'll make Fat Nuggets into bacon or force her to dance with him. She hears him walking around the kitchen like he's looking for something until she hears his footsteps coming close to her and Fat Nuggets' hideout. She stays still and quiet; praying is useless now since no one can help her. She and Fat Nuggets stay very quietly, listening to any signs of him either leaving or going to open the door.

Seconds later, they hear his hooves' steps leaving the kitchen, along with his creepy humming. Chris sits still for a second just in case until she hears nothing but silence. She slowly opens the cabinet door to peek out any signs of him and sees he's not there. Oh, thank god! Fat Nuggets snorts as Chris carefully crawls out of the cabinet. Once she is finally out, she sighs in relief before feeling a certain someone wrapping their arms around her. "FUCK!"

“Hello, darling~.”

“Fuck you, Al!” Chris yells before feeling Fat Nuggets slip from her hands. “Hey!” Alastor lets go of her before raising the pig higher from her reach with one hand while using her other hand to push Chris away from him. “Don’t you fucking dare try to eat him, Al!” Chris shouted, trying to reach for Fat Nuggets.

“And why shouldn’t I, dear Chris? He’s nothing more than a delicious meal.” Alastor said with a sinister smile.

“Because he belongs to Angel, and Fat Nuggets is the most adorable pig I’ve ever met!” Chris jumps up to try and grab him back but misses. “Come on! Alastor! Isn’t there anything else you want to eat besides Fat Nuggets?!”

“Hmm,” He hands over Fat Nuggets to his shadow before thinking. Chris looks at him with begging eyes. “How about a deal, dear Chris?” He smirks.

“…Vaggie told me not to make any deals with you,” Chris tells him. “Come on, something else, Al! Anything! Please don’t fucking eat Fat Nuggets! Hell, I’ll even take his fucking place if I have to!” Chris shouted.

“Really? Anything?”

“Yes! Name it!” Chris glares at him. Alastor takes her hand and pulls her close to his chest. She blushes before looking away from his gaze.

“Well, perhaps I’ll let the piggy live if you join me for dinner~.” Chris looks at him in confusion.

“Join you…for dinner?” Chris asks. Like a date or something? Alastor just smiles. “Ugh…Okay? I’ll join you for dinner, Al. Just let go of Fat Nuggets.” Chris said before he starts hugging her tight.

“Wonderful!” He said and snapped his finger to order his shadow to put Fat Nuggets down. Chris sighs in relief. “Meet me in the dining room at seven, dear.” He says and lets her go before he vanishes. Fat Nuggets waddles up to her before snorting. She leans down and pets his head.

“Fat Nuggets, whatever happens to me,” She said and picked him up like he was her baby. “Remember that you’re the most amazing pig in hell. And I mean it.” Fat Nuggets responds to her with a lick on her cheek. “Let’s just hope it’s one of those awkward dinner dates.”

______________________________________________________________

 When Angel Dust finally came back from wherever he went, Chris felt honestly scared. She was in her room, trying not to be afraid of Al, but how could she? What is Alastor going to do to her? Calm down. Maybe he won’t try to kill you. You’ll be fine…Right? She thought and took a deep breath and let it out. “Okay. It’s almost seven. Better meet him now than later.” She left her room and heads straight towards the dining room. Whatever happens, stay calm. Stay calm. She could hear Alastor humming a song. Stay fucking calm, Chris! She walks into the dining room to see Alastor, setting down a huge pot, filled with jambalaya. Is he…serious about the dinner part? Alastor hears Chris coming in and smiles at her.

“Ah! Chris! Great timing, my dear girl.” He smiles and suddenly, she finds herself sitting right beside Alastor as he sits down very close to her. Making her extremely uncomfortable and a bit nervous about what is going on. “I thought you were planning on running away from our little dinner~.” He said in a seductive voice, causing Chris to blush a bit.

“I-I didn’t.” She reassures him. But maybe I should have. “A-Anyway, here I am.” She says before nervously staring at the food. “…It’s regular food, right? Not the victims or anything?”

Alastor shakes his head with a big cheshire smile on his face. “No, no. Of course not. Why would you think that?” He said before wrapping his arm around her shoulder, feeling her shake a bit from his touch. “Now then, are you ready~?” Alastor suddenly asks. W-What!? What is he talking about?! Chris feels her face heating up.

“R-Ready for what?!” Chris babbles for a moment as Alastor leans his head down towards her. I-I mean, sure he’s handsome! Sure he’s a fine gentleman, but…AHHH! What is going on!? Chris screams in her head.

“To be my dinner for today!” Alastor says with a huge smirk on his face.

“…”

“After all, you did say you’ll even take that little bacon place if you have to ~” He said before chuckling. “But first off,” He said as he releases his arm off her to pick a spoon to scoop up the food. “Why don’t you have a nice meal before-…Chris?” Alastor says in confusion to find the seat empty next to him.

“Nope. Nope! No! Nope! Hell no!” Chris yells out as she runs down the hotel hallway to get to her room fast. “I lost my appetite, Al! No, thank you!” Chris shouts out in fear as she continues to run. Oh god! Oh god! Fuck! I should have seen this fucking coming! I should have-! W-What’s going on!? Chris begins to notice as she continues to run down the hallway, she noticed how everything was getting…bigger. As if she was shrinking. She trips on the now giant floor and falls to her stomach before looking around in shock. “W-What the hell?!”

“Oh, Chris.” She hears Alastor’s voice right behind her, only…deeper and louder. She turns her head and feels her heart drops to her stomach to see Alastor, now a huge giant demon as he stares down at her with a twisted smirk on his face. “If you wanted to go straight to becoming my main course of dessert, you should have said so.” He said and reached down for her. Chris scrambles to get back on her feet to run again but was too late as he picks up her tiny body by her waist as she shouts.

“A-Alastor! Put me down!” She yells, struggling to get him to release her. “You can’t just eat me! Put me down!” She said as Alastor ignores her screaming and shouting, bringing her towards his open mouth. “No. Nononono! Al! Stop it! Don’t you fucking even dare! AL!” She yelps as Alastor gently throws her inside before shutting his mouth, sealing Chris inside. “No! Alastor!” Chris shouts in anger before feeling his giant tongue vibrating underneath her as it moves around, tasting her tiny body. She feels his tongue starting to swirl around her body, licking every chance he could get Chris hears from the back of his throat, moaning in pleasure as he tastes her body.

Chris groans in disgust and fear as she tries to get away from his huge tongue, but no matter how hard she tries, it’s impossible. She looks around to see what she could do to get him to stop tasting her like some sweet candy. She sees something dangling from above his throat before she shivers to herself. I can’t believe I’m doing this! Chris quickly pushes his tongue away from her before she takes a leap of faith and grabs onto his uvula, hanging onto it tight as his tongue couldn’t reach her. She suddenly hears and feels the vibration when Alastor suddenly chuckles very darkly. Chris held on tight to whatever he was planning until she hears a very loud static voice coming from…everywhere! Oh, come on! With her hanging onto his giant uvula, Chris has no choice but to let go as she covers her ears to prevent her from hearing that terrible sound, allowing Alastor to swallow her whole.

He sighs in relief as he places his finger against his throat, to feel his little dessert traveling down his throat he feels her struggling and shouting, attempting to stop herself from heading any further in his throat, but she couldn’t fight the strong current of his throat. Seconds later, she falls out from his esophagus and landed on the stomach flesh floor as she takes a moment to realize where she is. She reacts in anger, quickly getting up from the stomach floor and running straight towards Alastor's stomach flesh on the wall, hitting it with all her might. “Alastor! You fucking bastard! Let me out of here!” She shouts out as she bangs her fist at the stomach flesh. “Let me out of here!” Suddenly, she feels his entire stomach shakes due to Alastor laughing.

“And why should I do that? You agree to have dinner with me.” He reminds her.

“Yeah! Agree to only have dinner with you, not you killing me!” She yells out.

“Killing you?” Alastor says in a fake gasp. “Why, my dear, would you think I want to kill you?”

“Because you ate me! That’s killing me!” She shouts out. Alastor chuckles to himself deeply.

“My darling little rose, I’m not going to kill you. Your only my meal today~.” He said before gently rubbing his stomach. Chris yelps as she feels Alastor stomach walls react as it slowly closes around her, giving her some sort of a gentle massage, thus causing her to blush a bit in confusion.

“What are you saying?”

“I’m saying you’ll be let out later.” He says and begins humming himself to a tune. “Don’t worry, you’ll be safe in there.” Alastor reassures her. Chris groans to herself, having no choice but to trap in Alastor’s stomach for today. Feeling his slimly, saliva-wet stomach rumbling around her, as if it’s telling her to relax. She rests herself down on the stomach walls as she hears Alastor humming a song to himself. It sounded nice, soothing. She eventually begins to feel tired as she takes a nap, waiting for Alastor to later spit her out.

A/N: Kinda forget about Vore Day, so, here's Alastor. Had to rush a bit to finish this.

[i-heart-hxh]

Hi,.....if you don't mind me asking, can I ask your top 5 (or top 3) favorite characters from Hunter x Hunter? And why you loved them? And your top 5 favorite moments from the series? Sorry if you've answered this question before....Thanks....

I'm happy to answer, thank you very much for asking! I'm indecisive and overflowing with love for HxH, so doing rankings is a challenge for me, but I put some thought into it and here are my answers for now!

Top 5 Characters:

5. Biscuit Krueger -- It's fun how Bisky isn't at all what you'd assume when we meet her character (in a few different ways), and I love her sassy attitude! She has a lot of different sides to her, and I find her very entertaining. Her strong personality makes how she plays off other characters especially amusing. I like that she can be somewhat cranky, self-serving, and rude at times, but she also has a softer and caring side to her. I look forward to seeing more of her role in the current arc!

4. Neferpitou -- I adore Pitou's design, and the combination of how sinister and also cute they are simultaneously, which is fitting of a very powerful cat (ant). I enjoy their mischievous and playful side as well! Their growth as a character throughout Chimera Ant Arc is so moving to me, and such a vital part of the arc and the message of the series as a whole.

3. Kurapika -- He's a great second protagonist for the series! The dichotomy of the brutality and darkness of his revenge/recovery mission and what succeeding at that requires from him, and his underlying gentle and polite demeanor are interesting to watch play out. I'm both excited and nervous to see what Togashi has in store for the rest of his arc...

2. Gon Freecss -- He's only very, very narrowly in second place, I adore him deeply and he and Killua are undoubtedly my two favorite characters of all time (from anything). I love how he initially seems to be a normal, cheerful, and strong-willed shounen protagonist, but as you go further in the story and look deeper into his character it becomes increasingly clear how unique and well-written he is. There's so much nuance to him and he's such a fulfilling character to explore and think about, I never get tired of it. Plus, of course he's adorable!

1. Killua Zoldyck -- I mean, who doesn't love him? He's such an incredibly multidimensional, fun, heartwrenching, fantastic character. His emotional growth throughout the series is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in a piece of fiction. His character design is so simple and yet so precious and iconic. There are tons of little touches to his character that contribute to making him feel so well-rounded and genuine. He and Gon utterly captured my heart my first time through the series and haven't let go even slightly.

Honorable mentions: Leorio, Alluka, Senritsu, I could go on and on... Togashi is a master at writing characters!

Top 5 Series Moments:

5. Gon and Killua on Whale Island -- I absolutely love the Whale Island episodes/chapters, they're such a reprieve from the many harrowing things going in the series otherwise, and it's wonderful to see Gon and Killua becoming closer. Their talk under the stars is such an important moment for them, setting the tone for their relationship going forward. I love thinking about all the fun they must have had that we don't see when they're on Whale Island, because they were there for a while and we only see a bit of it. These episodes/chapters are something I come back to a lot for comfort, and in the future I'm hoping we'll get another scene that echoes the scene under the stars...

4. "It has to be Killua." (From the dodgeball match.) -- There are so many layers to this scene, I love the complexity of it. From Gon's romantic-coded words towards Killua, Killua's very non-platonic response, and the contrast with Killua getting hurt on Gon's behalf, but it's because of Gon's respect for Killua's desire to help him at all costs... It's difficult to even summarize all the layers of what's going on without going deep into meta, it's a great microcosm of both the love and trust between the two, and some of the issues between them beginning to pop up, too.

3. The initial confrontation between Gon and Pitou/"It has nothing to do with you." -- The intensity of this scene is off the charts, both in the manga's incredible inked portrayal and the 2011 anime (with some of the absolute best voice acting I've ever seen in the hundreds of anime I've watched). Watching Gon lose control the way he does is chilling, and meanwhile we witness Pitou's growth as a character and the deep pain and conflict Killua faces. It's a difficult read/watch for sure, but an absolute turning point in the series and for the characters involved, and it's brilliantly executed and tragic.

2. Meruem and Komugi's lover's suicide -- This scene has made me cry hard so many times, it's beautiful and iconic and the absolute perfect climax to the Chimera Ant arc. One of the best and most heartwarming/heartbreaking scenes simultaneously I've ever seen.

1. "Gon, you are light." -- This scene was a major turning point for me when I watched the series the first time, and I still think it's an incredibly amazing and painful scene that says so much with so little. It's not just about Killua's increasingly hard to deny love for Gon, but also his self-esteem issues and how he sees himself in comparison to Gon, Killua's guilt over what happened to Kite, his denial of the cruel reality of what's happening because he deeply wants to see the optimistic way Gon does... And then of course with the scene going straight to Pitou holding Kite's decapitated head, it's really a gut punch.

This was difficult for me because there are SO many fantastic moments in HxH, I could easily make a top 20 or 30 and still not run out of scenes I adore. Of course, loving Gon and Killua's dynamic as much as I do, I go back to their scenes over and over again, and so that's what I'm focusing on here in my ranking. But there are tons of scenes not centered around them at all or only centered on one or the other that I also deeply love, and it's hard to leave all those out!

Thank you for asking my opinion! As hard as it is deciding on rankings, it was fun to think this over and write out some of my reasons why.

[angelicyoongie]

My beautiful and most favourite author I hope your well and taking care of yourself! Loved your abundance chapter as always!

However you gave me to do one thing however I'm going to do this with the most restraint I have without wanting to beat lovesick characters asses.

Namjoon, you absolute ass, capichè you are all MC's soul mate, well done for knowing what we all already know, however if your area that much for her wellbeing like you stated you do you would have cared for how badly her wellbeing is all while being with all of you, smartass. (..still a simp tho shh)

Jin, low-key love the mama bear mode however you still participate in trying to coax mc to bellive kidnapping someone is okay if it's done because it's for "love", it's not, at the moment it's for your own selfish game because you and the others love her, she does not. (Also still a simp)

Yoongi, honestly your the most kind and patient and one of the least involved in this and you try and keep the youngers respectful, therefore I request permission and consent to simp cos I can and if anyone deserves mc's trust I hope it's you first <3

Hoseok you ignorant little sh- human being. Having the most involvement , drugging her, so then everyone could take her while she was already vulnerable was a sickening move, i don't think those chocolates of yours will give you any hope for her to love you anymore, idc how hot you are, thats not cool. (Also still a simp)

Jimin.. you mother fu- "sane" , "friendly" police officer.. you know you would be my favourite one right? To punch. Your tactics are smart, but sickening and for you to think mc kept your "notes" because she liked them?.. newsflash, she took the to the station to report them as evidence, that's how harassment reports that make people uncomfortable work, after all, with a mouth like that I would hate to think how much you run it. (...yes he's still hot asf-)

Taehyung, why do I want to simp but slap this man at the same time? He's so fine~ until I want to beat his ass for the little plots he planned so easily yet so we'll planned out, it's easy to tell how manipulation is used easily, and how your going to use it for MC to break further down the line, with the kindest way possible I hope mc beats your ass and takes your dog away with her.

Jungkook, my god what went wrong with you? "Hyung this- Hyung that" hush man, hush. With all due respect you had MC the closest to you, she trusted you and I bellieve if you waited it out , with your cute shy shit , and cute/hot looks you would have had her, but noooo you had to let your precious hyungs kidnap her, drug her, and traumatise the woman all while ruining your chances and your hyungs chances of gaining her love and mostly trust. Your lucky your cute.

Anyways, cough, if you need someone to insult the characters but drool over them freely at the same time I volunteer! (Although I think we all do-)

AHHH omg thank you so much, I'm doing well! 🥺💖

"Y/n is doing fine," Namjoon says flatly, "she just needs some time to adjust."

Seokjin shakes his head, "I'm not being selfish, I'm just trying to look out for her. Who knows what could've happened if we let her be! At least this way we'll be able to protect her. Even if she doesn't love us right now, it'll come with time. I'm sure."

Yoongi blushes, his cheeks dusted pink as he ducks his head, "Thank you, I'm only trying to do what's best for Y/n."

"Ouch, that's not very nice," Hoseok frowns. He stares off into the air, eyes glossed over as he murmurs, "Y/n will see that I did the right thing eventually."

"You think I'm smart? That's sweet," Jimin leers, eyes dark as he cocks his head. "I know Y/n brought them to the station to get my attention, you don't have to make up lies. I don't like liars."

"Thank you! I watched a lot of movies and TV shows to prepare!" Taehyung grins. His smile turns a little sinister as he coldly adds, "Are you threatening Tannie? You really shouldn't do that."

"I need the hyungs," Jungkook cowers, eyes in his lap as he nervously picks at his nails. "But did she really like me that much?" He murmurs, lips twisted into a sad frown.

(Haha, thank you, I'll keep that in mind! 😉)

Different uses for different needles

summary

It's now three in the morning, and Xavier finally has the piercing he'd been thinking about for the past three weeks and a very self-satisfied girlfriend.

'Watch out Wens, you'll have to chase girls away from me with a bat now' He jokingly tells her.

He expects jealousy, instead Wednesday still looks like a cat who got the cream, amusement giving her face a sinister allure.

'Wouldn't be the first time'

Xavier almost asks, he really does. But this moment is so precious he doesn't feel like he needs to know what poor girl incurred in Wednesday's wrath before.

He takes her in his arms from behind, resting his temple on the top of her head.

'Thank you, Wens. I love it'

'Don't let it go to your head, I only did it because that's the only way I can legally stab you'

Or

Headcanon that Xavier eventually picks up tattooing and becomes well known in the school as the person to go to for beautiful designs specially made for all kinds of outcasts.

Wednesday is the only person he tattoos for free. What the others don't know, however, is that to pay back the favor Wednesday decides to do his piercings

*

Sirens have thick skin.

Their scales are hard to get through with the needle. And if that weren't enough, he has to be careful of what inks he uses, lest he accidentally damages the protective layer they develop in their early childhood in order to protect them from the frigid currents of their native waters.

It's tricky, maddening work. But Xavier still feels that it's worth it when he can get the mighty Kraken curled around Kent's arm to open his jaws and swallow the tiny ship still healing on his wrist.

'That's so awesome, dude' His friend's comment is filled with wonder and youthful bravado as he twists his neck to take a better look at his new ink, laughing like a kid who's managed to sneak an early peak of his Christmas presents.

Xavier grins back at him even as his focus fades and both the fresh and previous tattoos go still, the tiny ship once again reappearing on Kent's skin.

'Interesting' Wednesday's voice is low and distracted as her eyes trail the drop of crimson blood running from his upper arm to his elbow, gaze transfixed on it with eerie curiosity. 'Now we know for a fact that your drawings can interact with each other, even on skin'

She's perched on the arm of one of the couches they've recently managed to put in the Nightshades' library, back perfectly straight and a heavy notebook balanced on her knee.

Theoretically speaking, it would be easier to do this in his shed, what with not having to sneak inks and needles inside the school and everything. But after the cops came bursting through the door and messed everything up, Xavier finds himself even more protective of that space than he already was.

Ironic, really, that even after everything that happened Wednesday is the only one who's granted access.

'Yo, Addams, remind me again why you're here' Kent turns in her direction, half playful and half annoyed.

Rather than answering, Wednesday keeps her attention on the blood weeping from the fresh wound before lifting her gaze to his, black eyes blown wide and the chilling hint of a smile at the corner of her lips.

If he weren't so enamored by the sight of her, Xavier would laugh at Kent's visible shudder. 

'Jesus, you're sick' is the last thing his friend says before getting up and rushedly going for the door.

He stops only a second to shout from halfway up the stairs. 'I gave the money to Ajax earlier, by the way, he said he'll bring it by your room later'

'Thanks, man' Xavier answers, but he's distracted. His nightmarish girl has shifted her attention on him, cruel smile and crueler eyes alight with the closest thing to genuine excitement she ever allows herself to show.

It's not unusual for her to sit through his tattooing sessions. Never talking, never speaking, never judging or engaging. She just stays, and she watches. A dangerous little shadow lurking in the corner of his vision at all times.

'I have another idea for you, wanna see?' He always feels like he needs to lower his voice when he's talking to her. Maybe it's instinct, maybe it's learned behavior, like using exclusively hushed tones the moment you step into a church.

One of her brows arches high on her disgustingly pretty face. Asking is below her, and so she never does. It's Xavier that comes up with designs for her, that takes time out of his school work and already fucked up sleep schedule to work on them until he deems them worthy.

He fumbles to find his sketchbook, the good one with the black leather cover that he exclusively uses for her. He skips through pages and pages of agonizing studies of her hands, the faint hint of different facial expressions, mugs of bitter coffee, and even an embarrassing recreation of the black cat costume she wore during her first time competing for the Poe cup.

He doesn't bother hiding it. Sure, he's kinda always a bit scared for his life, but it's not like his pining is a secret. Even someone as emotionally dense as Wednesday has picked up on it by this point.

Finally, he stops to show her the few simple letters he dreams of marking into her skin. he knows it's a bold move, and a very, very risky one. Because this time the design it's not simply about Wednesday, but in some way it's about him too, about the way he sees her, anyway. What she is to him.

He's half expecting her to break a few of his knuckles for the sheer audacity. Instead, she just looks at him intrigued and faintly surprised, her head tilted slightly to the side as she asks him 'Where?'

He smiles brightly at her and tells her when to come by.

*

He feels a little euphoric, having Wednesday lie down on the cheap mattress in his shed in the dead of night, shirt off and hands over her chest for modesty as she waits for him to bring a needle to her moonlight-pale skin.

They are breaking so many rules simultaneously that he doesn't even know exactly what their punishment would be if they were found out.

'I half expected you to propose to do a third one to keep this two company' She says, brushing one of the two ravens caught in flight just under each of her collarbones with the tip o her finger. 'Then they would officially become an unkindness'

Xavier's face stretches in a lopsided grin, throwing her a glance as he readies everything he needs.

'Ravens mate for life' He looks around making sure the fresh needle is within reach 'wouldn't want it to get crowded. Although-' He applies the stencil on her skin with careful, precise movements. A playful glint coming forth in his eyes. ' I guess some little ones are bound to come around, sooner or later-Ah, fuckin-Wens!'

She kicks him in the side so hard it sends him falling on his ass over a few cans of paint scattered on the ground. Laughing only makes the pain worst, and yet he can't bring himself to stop, wiping tears from his eyes with latex-covered fingers.

'I'm going to castrate you with my bare teeth'

'Hey, don't threaten me with a good time'

This time Xavier manages to dodge her blow, barely.

'Alright, alright. I'm done fucking around, sorry' But he's still laughing and she's still scowling at him.

No matter, Wednesday lies back down with the promise of violence in her eyes, eyeing the needles with newfound interest. But then she huffs and relaxes, looking like someone who's about to get a spa treatment instead of a tiny needle stabbed in their sternum a thousand times.

'You know the drill, this might hurt a little' Xavier says, focused and ready to get to work.

'I'm counting on it'

*

'Xavier? Xavier-Wake up'

He comes back to reality with a jolt, the Wednesday in his dreams replaced with the Wednesday sitting astride his legs, with hair falling out of her braids and smeared dark makeup under her wide eyes. Her stoic expression does very little to hide her restlessness as she scans his face in open judgment, like he's the crazy one for sleeping, in his room, in the middle of the goddamned night.

Xavier wants to laugh, and yell at her, and maybe kiss her for good measure. Is she wearing his shirt?

'You look a mess'

'You're pretty like a girl'

He frowns. There's too much to unpack in that sentence for his two-and-a-half am brain.

'Addams, what. the. fuck.'

Xavier couldn't agree more with his roommate at the moment. Ajax's exhausted grunt comes from all the way across the room as he fumbles with the blanket to cover his ears.

Wednesday throws his sprawled form a condescending glance as she answers him. 'You do realize that me being here means Enid has the room all to herself, right?'

A beat of silence as Ajax registers her words, then before Xavier can bat an eye the covers are on the ground and his friend has a hand on the door handle, the other rushedly fixing his beanie over his snakes.

'Thanks, Wednesday!'

'Whatever, no debauchery on my side of the room'

Xavier looks up at her with a knowing smirk. 'Boy, has that ship sailed'

'do you want to die?'

He doesn't know how people can avoid someone like Wednesday. She makes him laugh so much, with her quick wit and dry humor, and (mostly) empty threats.

He knows his eyes are too fond for her liking when he answers her. 'What do you want?

'I want to pierce your ear'

Aaand now he's confused again, awesome. Xavier imagines that for Wednesday everyday conversations must feel like talking with a bunch of obtuse apes. 'You, wait-what?'

'did you hit your head? I said-'

'No, no, I got it. But why?'

For a second Wednesday's eyes shift on the phone on his nightstand, then she lowers her voice, bringing her face even closer to his.

'I've seen you look at pictures of it on your phone- It's a kind way to say she'gone through his phone, he knows. Wednesday wouldn't be caught dead openly looking at a tecnology device in public, not even someone else's-, right here' She touches a point high on the shell of his left ear. 'I want to do it. I let you do tattoos on me all the time'

'You let me?' She's the only one who he draws and works for free, and yet, somehow, in her head, he's the priviledged one for getting the honor of marking her skin.

He hates himself a bit because, deep down, he agrees with her. Goddamnit.

'Of course'

Wednesday twists on top of him to get something out of her bag. When she turns there's a brand new piercing kit in one of her hands. A tiny, beautiful, stainless steel ring in the other.

Xavier sits up to examine the items. He smiles warmly up at her, his batshit crazy, unpredictable, weirdly thoughtful girl. Who wants to play it cool but got so excited about finding a way to return his devotion to her that she couldn't wait for the morning to come.

I love you, he thinks. And it catches him so off guard his brain shuts down for a moment. He didn't expect this revelation to come to him in such a mundane moment, not after all the dangerous, life-threatening events they've been through together. And yet it's right there, clear as day. An impossibly familiar truth, lurking in the back of his mind just waiting for the right moment to strike.

I love you, he thinks. But it's the middle of the night and they're just kids. Plus, Wednesday has a very sharp needle in her hands that he'd rather not have stabbed in his eye.

So instead Xavier shakes his head without dropping her gaze, smiles, and tells her 'Free of charge?'

Wednesday rolls her eyes, exasperated, and he knows he's done for.

*

There's a surprising amount of blood for such a small wound. Still, the hole is clean and the process quick and painless.

It's now three in the morning, and Xavier finally has the piercing he'd been thinking about for the past three weeks and a very self-satisfied girlfriend.

'Watch out Wens, you'll have to chase girls away from me with a bat now' He jokingly tells her.

He expects jealousy, instead Wednesday still looks like a cat who got the cream, amusement giving her face a sinister allure.

'Wouldn't be the first time'

Xavier almost asks, he really does. But this moment is so precious he doesn't feel like he needs to know what poor girl incurred in Wednesday's wrath before.

He takes her in his arms from behind, resting his temple on the top of her head.

'Thank you, Wens. I love it'

'Don't let it go to your head, I only did it because that's the only way I can legally stab you'

He looks at her reflection in the mirror as one of the ravens flies from her collarbone to the word freshly tattooed on her skin, perching on the first of the four gothic capital letters.

On her sternum, right in the center, the ultimate proof of his devotion, his claim on her looks back at him.

'Muse'.

Calculating Alex Summers' Next Affair

Look, Alex is my poor little meow meow, my sweet idiot, my precious summer child, the blorbo from my comics, but we all know that he has a History.

I think this comes out of a terror of commitment because nothing committed has ever lasted in his life, mixed with a pathological need to perform heteromasculinity by immediately falling for any woman in distress who claims to need his help, but the fact remains: my man being in a relationship makes it more likely that he's about to hook up in an extra-curricular context.

So, who is it gonna be?

Let's start with the ladies, none of whom are currently likely, since the only women we have confirmed for Dark X-Men so far are Maddie (likely his current GF) and Gimmick (A Literal Teenager), but, nevertheless:

Kwannon — Kwannon is far and away the most likely, because she is the most Alex's type; a troubled, bereaved mother he feels indebted to, who is already in a relationship, and whose body was used in attempted or successful hookups with other members of his family (thanks Betsy). The second someone decides they want drama for John/Kwannon, I fully expect Alex to Fuck Around And Find Out.

Mystique — There's apparently trouble in paradise brewing for Mystique and Destiny, and Alex is a phenomenally useful idiot, something I'm sure Mystique is aware of. She's also a redheaded mother estranged from her son, and she and Alex spent 2020 and early 2021 in parallel quests to resurrect their dead, politically unpersoned lady-loves.

Lorna — I hope he doesn't! I really, really hope he does not!! But they've done it before and all it'll take is someone wanting them to bang again for it to happen. I just don't think that's likely right now.

Selene — This is my long-shot, dark-horse pick, because I think she's the most likely woman to show up in Dark X-Men besides Maddie, based on the book's influences

Mother Righteous — She's on the list because, as the female Sinister clone, there's a strong likelihood of her trying to fuck a Summers brother, and Alex is the Summers brother most likely to get fucked.

Zaladane — Lorna's sister (probably) and a dinosaur witch from the Savage Land. If Steve Foxe wants to playfully hurt Connor Goldsmith, this is probably the best way to do it. Depends, again, on her showing up, and I think that's an extreme long shot.

And now, the gents, because Oh Boy Do We Have Options Here:

Warren — Warren gets the top spot because he's blonde (the only hair color type Alex hasn't banged), he's a rich boy from a significant family (Alex's exes are, barring Annie, exclusively women who are either from significant families, or are rich and/or politically powerful in their own right), he's Bobby's teenage crush, and he deals with non-consensual body mods, a violent dissociative disorder, and will be the Saddest Boy In The Room, probably.

Gambit — Remy is already married, and there is nothing that makes you more likely to fuck Alex Summers than already being in a relationship that's kind of on the rocks. Remy also has the bonus of having been Schrodinger's Summers Brother in the 80s/90s, which I think actually makes Alex more likely to fuck him, not less.

Albert — I know this sounds like a weird third pick, but Albert's a robotic duplicate of Scott's metamour and he hangs out with a little android girl so he has Dad Energy by default. We have a history of Wolverine doubles being gay (Gov Gen Howlett, my beloved), and I just think it would be funny as hell.

Azazel — Kurt's dad, demonically affiliated, and seems appropriate for the situation based on Foxe's influential music. Also, it would be incredibly funny of Alex to Stacy's Mom Kurt in this particular way.

Larry Trask — my dark horse pick among the gentlemen, because he's not currently slated to be in this book, but i think if he's gonna come back, it'll be to join Limbo, and if he does, the likelihood of him and Alex having Homoerotic Tension is extremely high. He is exactly Alex's type.

Anyway, that's my take on who Alex is most likely to cheat on Maddie with, if he and Maddie are currently an item.

Could I request a Headcanon of MJF and a plus size reader? Sending lot of good vibes your way💗

You sure can! I hope you enjoy them. xx

Headcannon requests are open.

Contrary to what people think, Max worships the ground you walk on

You make him want to be a better person not that he'd tell anyone

He doesn't tolerate anyone talking bad about you and will gladly put them in their place. Especially on social media

Constantly lets you know how beautiful he thinks you are

Max likes to show you off.

He also likes spoiling you, vacations to your dream destinations, shopping trips, fine dining, etc.

Max would do anything for you; give up wrestling, give up his snobby lifestyle, even change character

When you do have sex, he makes sure to take his time and worship you.

Slow caresses, leaving kisses in the trail of goosebumps those kisses take

Lots of eye contact. He likes to watch you fall apart

After care is very important to him. He loves feeling needed and taking care of you.

Knife Kink with Jay White -Based off a conversation with @abadamn​

WARNING: KNIFE PLAY, BLOOD, Jay being completely crazed

You hadn’t meant to push him so far. It was only meant to be a little harmless flirting with Brandon to get under his skin

Now, however, she knew that had been a mistake

Jay hovered over her, the heat from his body and scent of his cologne filling her head. 

His presence made it hard to focus on the switch blade pressed against her thigh.

Above her, Jay smirked as he pressed the very tip against her soft skin. 

His tongue slid over his top lip as he watched the goose bumps cover her skin. 

“So smooth and soft, little one. It would be a shame to ruin that. “

The nick of the blade shocks you both as you lean up to look at the blood trickle from the small cut.

Jay froze, eyes locked on the sight as he sucked in a deep breath and held it. 

Then he seemed to snap. 

He slid down the bed, pulling you with him until your ass sat against the edge

“Imagine if your precious brothers knew what I was doing to their pretty sister “

His laugh is sinister as he looks up at you, forcing your legs to spread as far as they’ll go

“What would poor Matty think if he knew his little sister is soaked at the press of a blade “

He tsked his tongue as he leaned forward, kissing over the nick as the blade moved to her other thigh.

“You asked for this, princess. When you came out there, parading around like a slut for everyone to see. Now I have to remind you who you belong to. “

You open your mouth to ask what he’s talking about but then you feel it

You cried out gently as the blade pressed harder against your skin. As it moved you could feel the path, blood trickling ever so gently against your skin.

Jay worked slowly, whispering sweetly as my carved a small “J.W.” into your thigh. 

Once done, he picked up his discarded shirt to gently wipe the blood away before leaning forward to kiss the mark. 

“Did so well, princess.” He’d growl and kiss his way back up your body, hard cock pressing against your dripping opening. “Now let me reward you.“

His shoulders slumped as the strap of his IWGP title drug along the carpet in the hotel hall. He’d been quiet since his interview before they left the venue. Just ahead of him, Y/N slid the door to their suite open and waited for him to step inside before following and shutting the door. 

“Do you want to talk about it?”

His usually mischievous eyes met hers as he stepped towards the couch and  shrugged haphazardly. She offered him a small smile as she sat the keycard and her phone on the shelf. 

It wasn’t often Jay withdrew into himself. Matter of fact, in the four years they’d been together she’d seen it once. Usually he was the cocky, dominant, arrogant switchblade everyone knew and loved. She was the only one allowed to see this side. To see him vulnerable. 

A clattering drew her attention to the couch and Jay’s frustrated intake of breath. He had tried to set the title on the couch but it slid off and now rested at his feet. She could feel the explosion coming, could see the tension and frustationing in the way he stood. 

“Fuck the title, Jay”

She stepped towards him and reached out to slide her hands under the hem of his white t-shirt. Just as they began to slide up his stomach, Jay moved and buried his head in her chest. His arms wound around her to pull her tight against him as he drew in a breath. She stumbled slightly but steadied herself as her hands slid around to drag over his back.

Jay moaned softly against her, the first sound he’d made in hours and she took it as a sign to do it again. She slid her hands down his back, tracing each muscle as she pressed a kiss to the top of his head. His hands moved, too, sliding around to cup her breasts as he gently pushed her back towards the bed. 

“Oh no,” she giggled and pushed him back gently. “Clothes off, first baby.” 

He whined gently, the sound barely reaching her ears, but complied as she pushed the soft material up and over his head. As it hit the floor, her fingers moved to hook in the waistband of his joggers and boxers, slowly pushing them down as she sank to her knees. She tapped the back of each thigh, pulling both items free as he lifted his feet. Once his socks had been sat aside to join his clothes, she stood, hands trailing up his calves, then his thighs, his stomach, and last his chest before resting over his pecks. She leaned forwards to kiss him gently, lips ghosting over his as she turned them.

“On the bed, baby. Get comfy while I undress.”

“Yes, mommy.”

The words fell effortlessly from his lips as he crawled onto the bed, not even thinking. Y/N, to her own surprise, never missed a beat as she slid the clothes from her body. 

.Once naked she joined him on the bed. Starting at the foot, she crawled over him. Her breasts ghosted over his skin before coming to rest on either side of his cock as she gently kissed the tip. The smallest gasp slipped past his lips as his dark hazel eyes met hers. She smiled at him, breasts gently sliding over his stomach and chest until they hung over his face.

“Go ahead, baby.” She licked her lips, one hand running through his hair as her folds slid along his cock, tip resting against her entrance. “You can suck them.”

Jay’s hands flew to her breasts, kneading the soft flesh in his fingers as his lips wrapped around her nipple. At the same time, Y/N rolled her hips, sliding onto his cock as a breathless moan fell from her lips. 

“Good boy.” Soft eyes stared down into his as she rolled her hips, sliding along his cock as she ran a hand through his hair and tugged gently. Jay groaned against her causing her nipple to vibrate as his hips bucked to meet hers. 

He switched breasts, one hand coming to pinch the one he’d just released as his other hand slid down her side. She moaned her praise, nails gently scratching his scalp as she rocked her hips against him, sound starting to bounce off the walls around them.

“Feel so good, Jay.” She shuttered, walls pulsing around his thick length. “Always fuck me so good, baby.”

She adjusted her weight against him, pulling her knees under her to ride him better. She slid almost completely off his cock before bringing her hips back to meet his. Jay growled under her, the sound soft and unsure in his throat as his hips bucked. His hands wrapped around her, digging into her shoulder blades and pressing her chest harder against his face. Teeth and tongue teased over each nipple as his cock swelled inside her.

“Tell me again, please.” He groaned into her chest, hands sliding down her back to try and cup her ass. 

She slid her hands under his arms, pinning them above his head as she circled her hips. 

“Mommies in charge, baby.” She moved far enough to kiss him, tongue pushing past his lips to stroke against his. “Wanna make my baby boy feel as good as he makes me feel.”

Loving Her Curves

Matt watched her from the doorway of the bathroom, leaning against the frame. She hadn’t noticed him yet, too busy checking her appearance in the large mirror. He could see the way her hands trembled as she pulled at the cloth, trying to make it lay just so. Every second that passed, he watched as her shoulders sagged more and more. 

Y/N fought the tears as she surveyed her outfit. She hated it. Her stomach stuck too far out of her pants and rolled over the top. Her shirt, hem already stretched out, kept bunching up when she moved. She couldn’t meet his friends like this. 

As she thought about it, she couldn’t meet his friends at all. 

Matt pushed off the doorway and stepped towards her just as she let out a small, defeated sigh. 

“Hey, Princess,” His arms wrapped around her as he kissed her shoulder. “None of that. You look beautiful.”

Her teary eye met the deep, chocolate brown of his as she shook her head. 

“Can’t we go back to the hotel, Matt? Maybe just invite Nick over for room service.”

Matt frowned as he rubbed soothing circles on her hips. “Everyone has been so excited to meet you, babe. And we’re already here.” He moved to kiss the other shoulder before spinning her to face him. “You look just as beautiful as you did the first day I met you. They're going to love you.”

Y/N allowed herself to believe his words, wrapping herself in the fantasy safety they created. If Matt Jackson thought she was beautiful then, it must be right. 

She squared her shoulders and smiled, though it didn’t quite reach the corner of her eyes and nodded. 

“You’re right, Matty. I’m excited to meet them too.”

Matt smiled and leaned in to peck her lips, arms wrapping around her and pulling her against his chest. 

“That’s my girl. Now let's go show you off, yeah? I think you’re going to love watching from gorilla.”

She allowed Matt to lead her out of the bathroom, through the locker room, and towards the door. She took one last deep breath as he twisted the knob and pushed the door open, willing herself to believe she could do this.

Bright blue eyes met them from the hallway as Nick stood smiling in front of them. His smile almost rivaled Matt’s as the two brothers embraced and Y/N couldn’t help but smile.

The older Jaxson had been on vacation for two weeks, spending time with her in her hometown. They hadn’t seen each other since the match in which Matt got ‘injured’ before said vacation. 

“I thought I was going to have to bust in there.” The younger Jackson brother chuckled as the two separated and he turned his attention to her. “The beautiful, Y/N. I’ve heard so much about you.” 

He stepped forward a little hesitant as she froze for a second. He intended to hug her, which wasn’t really a surprise, but she was suddenly painfully aware of how squishy her body was. 

“N-Nick.” She cleared her throat and stepped forward to embrace him quickly, before she could talk herself out of the gesture. Strong arms wrapped around her and, to her surprise, she finds them to be a comfort. Much like Matt, his presence was inviting and calming. “It’s nice to finally meet you.”

“You too. Matt never shuts up about you.” The rumble of his chest as he chuckled, followed by the sound of Matt smacking the back of his head pulled a surprising giggle from her.

“Listen, I really hate to do this.” Nick sighed, the upbeat aura around them starting to fall as he stepped away. “But we’ve been asked to do a last-minute interview about Matt’s return before the match. I know he was going to show you around, but I was hoping my wife, Ellen, could do it?”

Y/N’s heart sped to almost twice the speed as panic filled her. She had hoped she’d be able to stay by Matt’s side until the match, but apparently not. Could she do it? As much as she hated to say it, Matt was her safety blanket. The simple thought of sitting in the locker room without him filled her with more anxiety than anything else in life ever had. Could she walk around and meet his co-workers with a stranger?

“Ellen’s a good woman, Y/N.” Matt’s hand slipped into hers and squeezed, pulling her from her spiraling thoughts. “She’s been so excited to meet you too. And after, I’ll meet you at gorilla. Gotta get my good luck kiss before I go out, yeah?”

Sharing Is Caring Pt. 1

SUMMARY; Matt finally decides to share

WARNINGS; brief brother x brother (It’s a kiss), kind of taboo? Read at your own risk.

Y/N took a deep breath as she raised her hand to chap three times on the door before pushing it open. Her hazy eyes slid over familiar faces before connecting with the deep chocolate of his. From his spot,beside his brother, on the couch, Matt smirked and lightly tapped his fingers on his knee. To anyone else, it would be a simple enough gesture, a tick. However, to her, it meant one thing; Come sit.

Her knees shook as she took a step into the room and spoke a soft ‘excuse me’ before slipping between Cody and Kenny. They gave her a small ‘Hello’ before continuing their conversation.

“Hey, Doll.” Matt smiled up at you as he reached out to grab your hips, turning you to settle on his lap.

You sucked in a small breath as your cunt clenched and your heart raced, doing your best to keep your hips still.

“Hi, Matty.”

He leaned forward to press a kiss to her shoulder, thumbs rubbing just under the hem of her shirt. Y/N sunk her teeth into her bottom lip, fingers digging into her own thigh as she tried to follow the conversation around her. They’d been holding locker room meetings, so they called them, leading up to battle of the belts to strategize and plan. Truthfully, she’d enjoyed attending them.

This, though, was different.

Matt had spent the previous hours tormenting her. He would send texts just before she’d have to shoot interviews, lick his lips and wink whenever he passed her in the hall, anything he could to make her pulse. Until he consumed her every thought.

Even now, as he spoke to Adam, who stood across the room, she couldn’t help but feel him. His presence seemed to envelope her until she could no longer hold it. Her eyes moved from side to side, once again scamming the faces around them as she rolled her hips slowly. She moved just enough to cause friction but not be overly noticeable.

Someone had noticed.

Beside them, Nick adjusted in his seat, his pants no longer comfortable. His gaze moved from their friends, to her, and back.

He knew his brother was brazen, knew he loved to put on a good show, yet he never expected it here.

Nick turned his attention to Cutler, who stood beside Matt and asked him a question he already knew the answer to. It was a discretion, a reason to look in her direction as a hand slid between his and his brother's body, perfectly concealed as he placed it on the round of her ass.

Y/n jumped, ever so slightly, as the warmth spread from Nick’s palm to her skin. A chill ran up her spine as she struggled to keep the conversation going with Brandi.

Her relationship with Nick could be described as complicated. He’d never touched her before,not like this. She’d seen the glances though, the longing in his eyes. Even heard the comments her and Matt had shared, going as far to joke about it.

Now, though, his hand was on her; just inches below Matt’s, who still rubbed his thumbs over her skin. Her hips jerked, harder than she intended, and both their grips tightened.

Matt wrapped a hand around her as he leant forward, chest against her back and mouth against her ear before whispering.

“Behave, baby.”

He chuckled as he leaned back against the couch, hand moving back to rub on her hip. A faint moan fell from her lips as his hips rolled up, ‘adjusting’ himself on the couch. The arch of his erection, through the fabric of his jeans, pressed into the swell of her ass. At the same time, Nick gave her a small tap.

Her mind swam as she gasped softly. Nick couldn't help but smirk as he checked the time on his watch.

“Geez, guys, it’s getting late.”

A murmur of agreement filled the room as their friends began to grab their things.Brandi, the only one who had begun to catch on, wiggled her eyebrow as she slid out the door after Cody. Slowly the rest followed until it was her and the brothers.
