Here's my first go at the Hannibal fandom if anyone's interested!
Will Graham x female reader
Tags/warnings: bit of smut, bit of psychoanalysis, unplanned pregnancy, birth (not graphic), Hannibal just wants a happy dysfunctional family awww. Dogs!
It's not the best, I kind of hate it reading it again but hey it's a door that's been opened.

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...
#not a shitpost#serious post#ask to tag#tw trauma#cptsd#c-ptsd#and if so we should TALK about it#because it means there are a whole group of survivors out there whose mental health regularly worsens during holidays#like i know i am most certainly not the only person who feels an undefined Dread hanging over christmas/my birthday/july 4 etc#bc too many shitty things happened during those times and now my brain is hypervigilant bc traditionally these are the Danger Times#and this seems like it would be particularly common for survivors of abusive/dysfunctional households (aka most people with c-ptsd)#because holidays/vacations typically mean 1) the whole family is together/being forced to interact#2) and undergoing external stressors e.g. travel/relatives aka 'outsiders' visiting/routines & coping mechanisms being interrupted etc#3) there is social pressure for this to be a Fun Family Bonding Experience which only highlights the cracks in the foundation#and exposes the common Everything Is Fine/We Are A Happy Family lie#4) the cognitive dissonance of feeling tired/anxious/stressed/afraid during a time when you are 'supposed' to be Making Good Memories#and then everyone is angry/tired/anxious/triggered and things boil over and something or someone goes Very Wrong#weird that i'm posting this in october when halloween is...sort of the ONLY holiday i have only good and happy feelings towards#i got lucky there#also i have positive feelings towards Labor Day but that's for socialist reasons

Okay, but Elizabeth being an absolute savage girlboss isn't something that's talked about enough.
Love how you're spitting facts for our girly pop. 💪💪💪
TBH I go off the personality baby has, and gotta assume some of that sass is definitely Elizabeth
#ask reply#like no way baby was programmed to be that sassy that’s gotta be Elizabeth#TBH I don’t think Elizabeth is mean she more protects herself#so if someone is rude first she’ll be rude back#especially having an older brother like Michael definitely grew thick skin sooner#I gotta draw Elizabeth having fun sometime though#I like to believe despite this fussiness#she’s actually really nice and just wants to have fun too#wants to feel special and loved etc#so does anything she can to get attention#MORE AFTON kids content soon..#they aren’t always fighting promise 💗#when you’re in a dysfunctional family sometimes all you have is your siblings#and I like to believe the Afton kids definitely go by that

Ohhhh boy. I have come with (yet another) Eldritch!Lucifer concept design. It will happen again. Ksnsbef
Inspiration taken from omori/madoka/genshin.
I have so many biblically accurate designs in the drafts bc I just. cannot see Luci with one definite look. Hence the hc that the closer his appearance is to his 'true' form, the more unstable it becomes. my baby would drive quantum physicists mad.
#eldritch lucifer morningstar#see one body is not enough. turns him into a planetary system#hazbin hotel lucifer#hazbin lucifer#lucifer morningstar#flakes art#not described#undescribed#might rework this later. to probably hopefully render him ksjsjdjdkdk.#fun facts abt this lil guy right there#1) the 'planet' he's holding is shaped like an apple. :)#2) aurora borealis can be seen in the area his wings do not cover#3) related to 2). due to instability in his angelic energy field thingy (his angelic and demonic sides not meshing well together)#there are probably soo many windstorms in there#if someone compares him to a vagina again I will cry /lh#“see that's why he gets along so well with vaggie” -🩹 NOOOO NO NO NONONO#edit: okay nevermind the symbolism is great actually#edit edit: him emulating the birthing process him recreating an entire ecosystem out of himself within himself#him clutching at any shred of familiarity he can find#no matter how broken or dysfunctional. no matter if it's barely holding itself together. no matter if it means he has to tear *himself* int#he misses home he misses his family so much screams#him trying to recreate what they once had but there's a big gaping fucking hole in the sky and the living reminder of what happened#constantly replaying around#and if he focus hard enough he can still feel himself Falling#it's all on a subconscious level but anyway. Yeah#flakes rambles#there's def more to say but it's 6am already...hahaha eepy time#edit edit edit: okay in a sense this is less like a 'true form' and more like a physical manifestation of his psyche#BUT STILL#OKAY EEPY TIME FORREALSIEs

Unlike his relationships with most other cadets, Dragon gets along…well enough with Kuzan, though with one important caveat; he’s much too friendly with Dragon's mother. Always hanging around her when she visits the base, making ice for her drinks or showing off impressive sculptures, offering to carry her bags when she's out shopping, incredibly willing to lend an ear or a helping hand to ‘Mrs M’. None of these actions are inherently sinister but knowing full well about Kuzan's woman loving tendencies he can’t help but suspicious of the younger man's intentions (even if Kuzan isn’t by any means a home wrecker, let alone his beloved mentor's spouse). It all comes to a head when after graciously preparing and hand delivering a cup of tea to the missus and receiving a courteous thank you, Kuzan chirps back an easy ‘No Problem Mom’ much to the shock and hilariously mixed reactions of the Monkey Family.
Dragon: 😮 (he feels bad about questioning Kuzan's intentions now but has no way of apologizing because he never actually voiced them)
Garp: 😂😂 (could tell the entire time and now has blackmail material for decades worth of training sessions)
Mrs M: 🥹🥹 (incredibly touched and is about to start with Monkey D tradition of adopting random people into the family)
Kuzan: 🏃♂️💨 (left the room so quickly as soon as the words escaped him you question if he was even there)
SHDJDHJJD NO 🤣🤣🤣
Poor Dragon thinking Kuzan is coming on to his mom, and poor Kuzan subconsciously ingraining himself into the Monkey D. Family without realizing it until All of That happens.
Monkey D. Momma having looked at this boy from the day Garp brought him in like a scraggly feral kitten like “you need a family, come here”.
AND GARP. Oh god, Garp would be telling this shit to Sengoku immediately.
“Sen, you wanna hear what my adorable dumbass kid did today?!”
#dysfunctional but weirdly wholesome family fun#monkey d family#monkey d dragon#monkey d garp#monkey d momma#aokiji kuzan#admiral sengoku#taurus answers

There's something quintessentially very sibling-ish in Dib's ability to simultaneously maintain his perception of Gaz as a walking personification of nightmare capable of turning his life into a living hell AND as the helpless little sister he needs to protect
#invader zim#dib#gaz#membrane family#iz posting#natterings#with a head that big is it any surprise it can contain such multitudes#in all seriousness though i love them and their disaster dynamic#which in many ways feels like one of the most bizarrely realistic dysfunctional sibling dynamics ive ever seen in fiction#which is a fun irony coming from a show as shamelessly absurd as iz#some day ill snap and actually write out the membrane family meta i have in my head#theres so much i could articulate about them if i wasnt too lazy to write it out#ANYWAY#i like contrasting this episode against that one comics issue with gaz cryptid hunting with dib to cover for poisoning him#because it really is nearly the exact same scenario in reverse#and i sort of love the implication that these two will do basically anything to protect each other#but only AFTER theyve intentionally risked their well-being for petty/selfish reasons

I went in to watch season 4 after seeing a few people say that it was bad. So I was like, psh, tua has its ups and downs but it can't be that bad.
Spoiler alert
It was that bad
#the umbrella academy#Like oh my goddddd#This entire season was just a whole lot of nothing#Nothing was explained thoroughly#We have plotlines that add absolutely nothing to the story *COUGHS* UNNECESSARY CHEATING *COUGHS*#AND MY FUN LITTLE DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY WHO DESERVED BETTER GOT REDUCED TO NOTHING#Oh look! Marigolds! FUCK OFF

Evil Dead Rise (2023)
"You don't look so good, Mom..."
"Oh, nothing a big old hug and kiss from you won't fix. Open up now. Like a good girl."

obscura is fun because i can be a freak with it. because it's supposed to be an insanely dark and fucked up universe
#personal#take clarence right. she falls in love with the angel that blinded her and granted her with psychic abilities in return#ends up getting what she wanted and fucks the angel (you go girl) but then ends up PREGNANT. and like. of course that child is gonna be#super ffucking freaky right. because in obscura angels and demons all come from the same place#like obviously there's religious undertones but the actual entities 'angel' and 'demon' in this universe are like#otherworldy beings. INCOMPATIBLE WITH HUMANS MIGHT I ADD.#so clarence gives birth to grendel. a girl who is born inside out. sorry#a surgeon manages to put her back together correctly and grendel lives... but obviously she's like. basically the antichrist at this point#There's Something Horribly Wrong With That Child. but that's what makes it fun#i'm not entirely sure yet what grendel's fate is gonna be but like. there's gonna be drama because it's a highly dysfunctional family#you KNOW that angel is a deadbeat parent

apologies for the lack of art lately, i just got new glasses and am still adjusting :(
in the meantime, anyone have thoughts about lomion and tyelpe's relationship in the reverse gondolin au?
#not silm#not art#my stuff#the current Fun Bit In Progress is lomion tyelpe and gil's family portrait#the current Frustrating Bit In Progress is fiddling with the TA timelines#do you think gil should go by a different name? i do like how gil galad fits for both lomion and tyelpe's stars#ereinion also works in a less-vague sense given that both his dads are kings lol#and artanaro works in the feanorian sense#idk how to differentiate him though#like how maeglin is lomion and celebrimbor is tyelperinquar (bc gondolin quenya) and elrond is prince elrond#hmm#also saruman is probably getting kicked out of the white council early on lol#tyelperinquar (almost died because of annatar; also recently widowed because of annatar/sauron): i am not making that mistake again :///#he still has massive issues trusting himself that are even worse without lomion to talk things through/balance each other out#so i dont think he would do the active kicking-out#but he would definitely have a Foreboding Sense of Suspicion#and prince elrond (having trust issues in the opposite direction) would show saruman the door in three seconds flat#overall this white council is a lot more traumatized#a great deal more suspicious and equally dysfunctional#the moment the kinslayings get brought up nothing gets done for the rest of the meeting bc#galadriel and tyelpe spend the whole time glaring at each other#given their respective Everything the table probably catches fire

can you rank the great houses? 😊
obviously this is just my opinion on them, etc etc also thank you for this ask i love lists alskjdfj
9. House Arryn
Constantly dying off but they had a lesbian and a milf as rulers once so they have that going for them. House Royce is cooler, GIVE ME MORE BRONZE YOHN I'M READY FOR HIM!!!!
8. House Lannister
I’m sorry but They Are Just Fine. When I’m reading their chapters I feel something and then I mostly forget about them after I'm done. I wish we had a real Dance era book mostly for Joanna and Tyland tho.
7. House Tyrell
I think it’s really funny that they are upjumped stewards and the whole Reach has been pissy about it for generations. Mostly exist for other characters to project onto but by god do they reflect back in fun ways. I want to meet Willas so bad but I’m positive if we meet him he’ll die soon after so rip me!!
6. House Targaryen
Interesting villain house that George gets too distracted by too often. Lots of fun historical characters, the cyclical doom is amazing to read but Dany’s chapters drag so bad to me at some points and F&B just pissed me AWF. The best ones are usually tied to her magic (prophecy chapters, fever/vision dream chapters) or her dragons in some way and the dragon bond is also what I tend to find most interesting in her ancestors as well.
5. House Greyjoy
I haven't reread Victarian in years but damn Aeron, Asha, and Theon are all as great as I remember so I'm making the decision to put them this high on memory alone. But this family is just a group of the most delusional people ever, struggling in a culture that doesn't allow room for struggle, and the way Euron acts as this black hole of terror for all of them, until finally, finally, there is Asha, not only knowing and understanding that the way she's lived is wrong but going home and dragging everyone else through the dark and into the light with her. Also, their culture is just really fun and cool.
4. House Baratheon
Started by my number two enemy, Orys Baratheon, but damn do I love basically everyone else in this stupid ass House. The House as a whole really plays with masculinity; what it is, the damage you do when you measure up to your role, the lengths they will go to in order to pretend the fault lies elsewhere, craving the pleasures but refusing to deal with the consequences, and all of that fallout landing on their innocent children, dooming them for the next generation as well. I need more Baratheon women tho jfc.
3. House Tully
I literally love that the Tully’s are in canon known as being huge bitter bitches. The most fucked up idea of what family is in the world but by god do these people try, they all try so hard to live up to those words but the price of duty and honor is always the sacrifice of their children for The Family, and not actual protection of their family, and while Hoster recognizes this far too late, his children become determined to do Every Single Thing Wrong in order to be loyal to both The Family and their family. Unpleasant people, I love them so much.
2. House Stark
Taught me what family is!!!! The whole series for them is an examination of the family unit under pressure and how their attempts to stick to their assigned roles (The Mother, The Father, The Heir, The Dutiful Daughter, etc) just makes them completely break under the stress so they discover what's under that - AND IT'S LOVE BITCH. I HATE the analysis that their stories are about rejecting love or overcoming emotion because it all comes back to that moment with Ned in the dungeons, remembering how he chose Lyanna, Jon, and love over honor, the way he chooses Sansa over honor, THAT is the point, for all of them, trying to keep these impossible oaths of honor and ignore love but in the end, the father they venerate chose love because it is not just okay to yearn for love, it is human and natural and good to love others.
1. House Nymeros Martell
LISTEN. WHO ELSE COULD IT BE.
If the Starks are a family desperately trying to find each other again, than the Martells have long been lost. A House defined in its modern day by the violating loss of one of its daughters in a society that doesn't put much worth in losing daughters. It's the themes of justice and vengeance, waiting on the system that is not meant to help you to bring you peace, on the people who are at the outskirts of society finding the line between the overthrow of power and keeping the cycle going, it's STANDING AS AN ACT OF LOVE. For Doran to his Arianne, for Oberyn to Elia in the face of Tywin, for Elia to her children in the face of the Mountain, for Meria and Nymor and Maron and Loreza and Nymeria and Mors, the point is not just to stand up and fight but to stand up and fight for something, to fight for the people who depend on you because there is no one else to do it. A responsibility, a calling, an honor, a horror.
#DORAN NYMEROS MARTELL CHARACTER OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!#asks#anons#getting on my soap box#this was fun to think about why i love them so much. very clear to see i love dysfunctional but loving family dynamics lol#does anyone think it's funny that aegon didn't make the celtigars masseys or velaryons great houses when he took over

actually find it very funny that Dean Winchester IS canonically bisexual, but in order to accept that canon confirmed it you have to accept that canon has a whole-ass subplot in season 8 where he and his brother are both cheating on each other and get mad about it
#if Purgatory Vampire Boyfriend no love interest then y wincest dual-infidelity blowup#the almost-overly-tidy parallel with sam's grief girlfriend was all fun and games until both got treated like honest-to-god adultery#...look. if wholesome bi representation is what you want. then my brother in familial dysfunction WHY are you looking to spn for it#supernatural#dean winchester#benny lafitte#wincest#spn s8#shine watches spn

My needs are simple. I need a Batfamily-sized fandom, but focused on the imperial family shenanigans in Joy of Life
#is that too much to ask#some family bonding some murder#lots of plotting#no happy endings but lots of fun on the way#100% dysfunction 100% of the time#also it goes without saying that I’m considering fan xian as part of the family for these purposes#joy of life#joy of life spoilers

I need people to know that when I say batfamily I mean family like family genus species. I mean batfamily like canidae family. I mean these people share a common ancestor and it's Gotham smog and sheer idiocy
#I mean batfamily like it's impossible to draw the taxonomy because Dick is related to everyone but Bruce isn't#I do NOT mean Wayne Family Adventures#don't get me wrong I like WFA it's fun it's cute#I just don't mean that when I say batfamily because like... in most worlds they are not fun and cute family adventure they are dysfunctional#queue ki jānē#talky talky#batfamily
