WTFuture Edd x Reader Drabble

Edd is a bit of a bad guy in this

-Jun

tw: none

“I fucking can’t deal with this anymore.” Edd seethed, knocking your hand away as you reached for his arm. You pressed yourself against the wall in surprise, hands now clasped against your chest as you watched the way Edd paced around the room. The two of you had been discussing what big plans Red Leader had for the next few weeks, moving closer and closer into ceasing two more rebellion groups.

“Edd, please. You can’t just go. He’ll find you, hunt you down.” Edd slammed a fist into the wall, leaving a dent. “Calm down-”

“No, I don’t believe how you think this is the future that’s right for us. Running and hiding, rolling over whenever he decides we can, can’t be the life you thought you’d have when we were younger.” He turned to you, the big man looming over you. He softened slightly at the sight of your shiny eyes. “I just want you to be safe.” He remedied, reaching a hand down to clasp yours. 

“I want you safe too. And I know that this isn’t the solution.” You swallowed, smoothing your fingers over his knuckles. He shook his head.

“I have to try.” He murmured, moving back out of your reach. He turned to look over his shoulder. “And if you’re not coming with me, then…I’ll see you when I see you.”

“Edd-” You moved towards him, startled. He was talking like a mad man. You had never seen him so frantic for something. Your anger and confusion deflected to thoughts of Red Leader. If he had never come to power all those years ago, hurting Edd and his friends, the two of you would have never been in this situation. He would still be the goofy, gentle giant you fell in love with all those years ago.

“I’m sorry,” He muttered your name, looking down at you with empty eyes, “I have to do this. Be safe until I return. This will all be over.” He turned his attention to the wretched watch he hadn’t taken off since he got it a week ago. He had come home that day looking like a man haunted, clutching around his arm as though it was going to be ripped from him. The two of you had gone into hiding immediately after. Edd turned the bigger dial around the watch face, clicking it back a couple of times before he was looking at you again.

“Please, don’t do this.” You pleaded weakly, knowing that it wasn’t going to stop him. Once Edd had been settled on something, he wasn’t going to budge. Him working for the Red Army had made all his rough edges even harsher. He pursed his lips, shaking his head.

“I’m sorry.” Was all he got out before his figure was engulfed with bright light. You winced as you squeezed your eyes closed, reaching an arm up to protect your face. You were blinking stars out of your eyes as you opened them, feeling faint when you realized he was gone. Just like he was never there to begin with.

You sank to your knees, feeling the weight of everything finally consume you. How could he do this to you?

> Ascendant Aspects < How you Appear to be, and how your treated based off your appearances > why you look like a clown without makeup

Ascendant aspecting Sun - I like your smile. Did you put it on for me, or for yourself? yes your charismatic, yes we noticed why your so confident, yes your literally the greatest person do you really need us to shower you in affection all the fkn time? your extra but too many toppings ruin a good pizza. your the embodiment of the cheesy smile from that cat in alice in wonderland. main character energy for sure you get the attention and you know how to use it Ascendant Aspecting moon - 🌚 < dont they look like that.? idk but you guys look like someone you want to grab the cheeks of and treat like a baby, your like a sugar glider. but we know your emotional so we have to be careful with how we grab your cheeks 👀 please stop crying its just a joke > also; big ass eyes. you are so sweet that everyone just wants to take you home and feed you till you become so obese you cant leave Ascendant Aspecting Mercury - the most devilish and cheeky smile all at once. they look like a kid about to do something bad, or have just been caught doing something bad and are now trying to explain why they had to do that dumbassery. but no matter how much you explain yourself, we will still question you because its funny watching you come up with explanations. you give me the vibe of any character from cartoon network or nickledoen - timmy turner, southpark, phineas and ferb, ed edd and eddy, or fkn bart simpson, you act like a cartoon yes.

Ascendant Aspecting Venus - I dont normally do this but whats ur number? is what your used to hearing presumably. and its not necessarily because your attractive... okay you are, you can stop pouting now. but its because you know how to get attention and you clearly love getting it. but they act so superficial, and oblivious sometimes... like they purposrfully look away just so its easier for you to look at them, 💀 then they look back playfully and it gets you in the feels. remind me of doctor who's bitches (any of them) they all act the same idc what you say

Ascendant Aspecting Mars - so pissed off lol but its hot. they are fierce > if they want something they are going to get it, and even the mere consideration of negotiating what they want will just get them more mad. which makes them more attractive? idk people love their ferocity, and as much as people say they don't like aggressive types, they don't ever get in their way when they pissed off (ik because im hot head) your basically a hornet > and no one gonna fight a hornet without the proper precautions Ascendant aspecting Jupiter - Yall are excellent at impressions and being impressionable, idk how you do it so well. You just act normal but then pull off this funny shit and return back to normal like its nothing. you guys perfected just being, and this energy makes people want to be around you. Your like a firework, the explosion is awesome, but when it goes away your like damn that was awesome wish it stayed; but thats what makes it so good, because we never know when its coming, and when its gone we want it back lol Ascendant Aspecting Saturn - batman without the mask sucks. thats you. batman without the mask.... why so serious???? > "because life shouldnt be taking for granted and fuckery aint apart of my Repertoire" - is some whack ass shit yall would say. you have great dignity, but people get insecure around you because your on top of your shit. oh and you tell people to get on top of their shit all the fkn time lol. > your like a crow, you look like one and act like one. - Side note- one time i had a stand off with a crow: I was chilling at home and i was on top of these tile blocks, then this crow came along. I tried to scare him, by like staunching him just a bit. but he responded by gripping the tree branch he was perched on, by twisting his claw foot; and he did it with so much ferocity it made this bone cracking noise (from the strength of his grip gripping the tree) and suddenly i was intimated.... by a fkn crow. okay moving on

Ascendant Aspecting Uranus - how did you even become like that. no one really understands why you act the way you do, you do some really eccentric things which are eye grabbing but also disturbing the more you think about it. your like a sword fish. theres probably more effective ways to kill fish, but i mean a sword works, we are just wondering how you attached a sword to your face. also try to calm down, you doing so much and acting so bizarre that im actually more worried about you, even though im laughing my ass off. Ascendant Aspecting Neptune - your like a mirror of all that i ever could want in a person, and this mysterious allure you so easily pull off is truly enchanting. its like being around you makes it feel as if reality can so easily be readjusted into what i would like it to be. but this quality of urs is addicting, and no wonder people project onto you. but you cant even blame them, you literally shapeshift into whatever you want, and typically you like to show it off. your like a chameleon. or a axolotl Ascendant Aspecting Pluto - you scare people easily lol. your a spider. but spiders are sexy.... look at the BUNDA. okay but those teeth yeesh, have you ever seen a spider like lick its lips, bro its fkn scary. theres a reason arachnophobia is the most popular phobia and its because spiders are fucked. and yall are fucked. you move like a spider, and i swear to god you smile like one too lol. but people low key wanna be eaten by a spider..... so go ahead choose yo prey you fkn creepy crawler

Okay last request of the year.

Eddie kissing reader on new year’s eve and it’s her first kiss💞

The Stroke of Midnight | Eddie Munson x Reader

Wc: 942 cw: alcohol and fluff

Here you were, New Year’s Eve, at Steve’s. Single. Surrounded by couples. Everyone had been paired off. Every. Single. Person.

Robin and Vicky. Steve and Nancy. Hell, even all the kids had their little relationships. And here you were, an hour until midnight, and you would be kissing Mr. Snuffles, the family cat, at this point.

The party was fun, but the reality of the fact that you hadn’t ever been kissed by somebody, let alone getting a New Year’s Eve kiss, was settling in.

Eddie, your only chronically single friend, was supposed to be here. However, it’s now 11:26pm, and he was nowhere to be found. Honestly, you were a tiny bit relieved he wasn’t here. You had liked Eddie. Ok, liked is an understatement. You had a big, fat, massive crush on Eddie Munson.

Eddie was never one of your super close friends. You had been closer with the girls, but he was still a friend. Your group was together whenever you all had the time. You tried at least a few times a week to get together. Eddie was always sweet on you. He was a natural flirt; you were not used to that kind of attention. He makes you flustered in the best way possible.

So when he didn’t show, you were disappointed, but since he was the only singleton out of the group, you felt anxious about him being here...Would you have to kiss? Would he even want to kiss you? Would you be bad at it? What if you sucked at kissing, and he told everybody! What if you asked him, and he rejected you? That would be mortifying!

As you got lost in your thoughts and the sparkling wine you had been downing all night, you didn't hear the door open or anyone or greet the man who had entered the room.

"Hey, sweetheart, sorry I'm late." You snapped out of your thoughts, and standing before you was Eddie. Your stomach was in knots.

"Edde! Hi!" You said a little too enthusiastically.

"Woah, how many of these have we had tonight?" He asks, taking your champagne flute from your hand and sipping it a bit. If it was anyone else that took your drink, you'd be pissed. But it was Eddie. He didn't mean anything by it.

"Only a few." You turn into yourself shyly.

"Well, looks like I need to catch up." He winked. "Care to join me in the kitchen?" He gestured his arm out for you to talk in front of him.

"Okay," You smiled.

You check the TV for the NYE countdown. Seven minutes until midnight.

"I didn't think you were going to come."

"And not be with my favourite person to start the new year? Nah. Have to start off '88 right." He smiled before turning to open the fringe, and you swore your heart stopped.

"Oh," your chest and face immediately felt flush. Thankfully, the door was blocking you, so Eddie couldn't see the look of shock in your eyes. "So, uh... what took you so long?" you twiddled with your glass.

"Oh, I had to finish up some last-minute deals... you know. Nothing says Happy New Year like being high." he says before taking a shot.

"Woah, Munson starting off strong," Steve says as he enters the kitchen.

"Gotta catch up with this one; can't be the only sober guy at the party," Eddie pointed to you jokingly.

You just rolled your eyes as you topped off your glass for the cheers.

Steve grabbed his drink and then beckoned the both of you into the living room with the TV countdown. There were only a few minutes left until midnight.

Eddie took your hand and led you into the crowded room. You noticed everyone was paired off, sitting beside one another. As you scanned the area, you noticed that most of the seats were taken. However, Eddie confidently guided you towards a single high-backed leather chair, which could only accommodate one person. He then patted his lap warmly with a smile, gesturing for you to sit with him.

" I uh- you sure?" you stuttered.

"Yes, sweetheart, only a few more seconds until midnight; how am I supposed to kiss you from all the way up there?"

You threw all caution to the wind while thanking your lucky stars you didn't drink too much to be an absolute disaster.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six... the others chanted as you sat down in Eddie's lap, wrapping an arm around his shoulder so you could face him.

Six.

You shuffled to get comfortable.

Five.

Eddie wrapped a sroong hand around your waist.

Four.

You looked into Eddie's eyes and took a deep breath.

Three.

Eddie smiled, and you smiled back. It was clear to the others around you that both of you were nervous.

Two.

Eddie nudged your nose with his own nose.

One.

Fireworks! You closed your eyes, and Eddie leaned in. His lips were a little chapped from winter but still soft and plush. He worked his mouth with yours as his hand came up to cup your left cheek. It was so natural, so easy, you couldn't believe how simple kissing was. You'd always thought it would be complicated. Or maybe it's due to the fact that Eddie was really good at it. You had nothing to compare it to, but he was really good at it.

Happy New Year! You heard the others cheer, breaking you out of your thoughts, and Eddie pulled away.

"Happy New Year, Sweets." He tilted your chin up to him.

“Happy New Year, Eddie." you whispered before he kissed you again.

Explanation for the connection I made lol 👇

I'm gonna at least slightly explain Tord and Gravy being roommates. I'm not going to lie to you guys, this was a joke made because when my friends and I were watching "Technical Foul" from 8 Crazy Nights we were like "that's like if Tord crashed at Gravys house tbh" and then it turned into "Tord somehow becomes Gravys roommate after he leaves Edds house, for like maybe 2-3 years. And it's almost like a Disney movie. Tords just happy he has a place to stay, and he knows Gravy is just soooooo nice but man is he annoying. So he's not mean to him, he just is autistic and only ever likes Edd anyway basically. But he warms up to em. Gravy works a ton of jobs, and Tord cleans up around the house. And an odd but actually important detail is Gravy smokes weed (because of all of these jobs), and Tord took interest in that. Getting high together kinda made it easier for his nerves to be calmed down, and it made it easier for him to realize "oh Gravy is just a guy". Of course afterwards, Gravy turns back to jumpy goofy Gravy, but Tord learned to appreciate the energy. Tord and Blonzie were already slight acquaintances, actually before Tord met Gravy. Somehow for whatever reason Tord ends up at the auto shop he works at, probably asked about a pile of spare parts that looked like junk and Blonzie said "take em". So they had that for a while. They're mechanically intelligent together. Plus Tord finds his stunts REALLY cool, as he loves destruction too. He'd love to invent little things for him to try out. They also both have "I'm gonna be silent now" autism. Anyway, he never in his life expected for Gravy to be like "meet my boyfriend" and "oh whataya know, it's the guy that calls me Tiny and gives me spare parts". Not sure if it makes sense for Tord to still be living with Gravy when he gets with Blonzie or not, but either way they'd make a really weird fun trio. Gravy definitely opened up Tords weird side for him. Because Tord is just so closeted around everyone, even Edd didn't know a few secrets about him (for probably crush related reasons, intimidation.) But with Gravy, it sorta didn't matter to him what he told him. He'd listen, and I mean it's sad but. Gravys a huge loser who's pushed around EVERYDAY, and for a bit Tords view on that was "well he has it worse than I do so he can't judge me"

But yeah, they're friends lol

In a WTFuture timeline, this was also a joke that turned out to be something that we all kinda liked. I believe in Tord clone theory btw! Basically one day, Not Tord shows up to Gravys house one day. Reminder that if this is a bad timeline, Blonzie is dead sorry. But yeah Gravy notices something is off about him. Very off. Like, somehow this Tord knows Gravy would call him "buddy" buuut.. Tord never called HIM "buddy". Blah blah blah somehow Gravy is in the Red Army. And I don't mean as a soldier, the last thing Tord wants is for him to die actually. As in any timeline, Gravy will work a million jobs. And that's exactly what he does. I'm talking coffee runs and goofy shit like that. Because to me, yeah Red Leader is "WOAAHH crazy leader man scary he's taking over the world" but it's EDDSWORLD, so he's also "aw man. My helmet stinky" "play just dance with me I'm bored" like y'know. Before this concept, I was like "yup. Gravy is the first to die in this timeline" and then it turned into "Tord wants to keep him alive because he'd be dead bored without him"

And I'm serious it's gets so goofy. To a point where THIS Tord also opens up to Gravy, crying about Edd and being like "I'LL JUST GET RID OF ALL THE COKE IN THE WORLD I CANT LOOK AT IT ANYMORE!!" and then he's like "😲💡" and then Gravy talks about his feelings too.

Potentially as well, since Gravy is trained in medical, he could also technically take care of wounded soldiers and almost act as a doctor but ONLY back at headquarters, he's not allowed to go anywhere he'd be in danger. Anyways. Yup. My sick and twisted mind.

[pineappleciders]

Hiii I saw your EW posts and I was wondeing how Tord And Edd would react to a Y/n who keeps bugs ^^ its a lil weird yeah! Have an amazing morning/night

tord and edd with a reader who keeps bugs headcanons

A/N: i don't keep bugs but um i LOVE them they are so silly 🐛🐜🪲

TORD

so tord isn't really one to get freaked out by bugs, but he also doesn't love them. like he'll let one chill on his wall but he'll be low-key nervous if it gets too close to him

so once he knows you like to collect and keep them, he's a little off-put by the creepier looking ones but he's willing to suck it up

he definitely has his niche interests that he's super Normal about, so he completely understands having a fascination or even obsession with things most people dislike

he'll let you place them on his hand and crawl around, and you can see his shoulders tense as it moves further up his sleeve. though he won't say anything!

tord will 100% let you rant about bugs and their habitats and anything ab them. he might do something else while listening, but he knows the importance of having someone you're able to rant to

he'll sit there patiently as you introduce each bug to him and tell him their names. and it takes awhile for him to remember any but slowly he'll start bonding with them

one time you catch him with his hand in your tarantula enclosure, letting the spider inspect his finger. he'll quickly pull it out and act as if nothing happened

EDD

edd is definitely a bit more spooked by bugs than someone like tord. he used to swat them out of his house, but then he started to think about it and actually feels bad for the little guys

so now he's a lot gentler with them as he sees them as small animals, yet they still scare him half to death sometimes. esp spiders.

so you might have to help condition him getting used to your pets, by showing him pictures and holding them out on your hand.

he doesn't think you're weird for keeping bugs as pets, as he has a love for all creatures big and small. though he shudders when looking at certain insects and truly wonders how you're able to touch them so freely

he'll (very) slowly start getting used to having bugs in the house and seeing them. surprisingly, one day he decides to hold a mantis in his hands all by himself.

when he asks you to help him, you question why he wants to do this all of a sudden.

"oh.. y'know.. no reason."

but you can easily tell from his firm expression that he wants to become braver. though with his caring personality, you're sure he also wants to indulge in your interests to make you happy!

[prettyswellaus]

Behold the dreaded Beastlord! Conqueror of kingdoms, master of his minions, and slayer of any sucker who dares to stand in his way

At least...that's how he is when the game is played.

But off the clock? He's just Tom. He may be the Bowser to Edd's Mario (though with a bit of Ganondorf as well) or the Ralph to Edd's Felix, but just because he's the bad guy doesn't mean he's a bad guy. His rivalry with the green-clad hero? Just part of the show.

In fact, not only are they on friendly terms, but Tom's taken quite a shine to his "nemesis"...

Still | Tord x Reader

Had this one in my files for a bit, so I figured I'd post it for you guys!

Warning: Angst? Kind of? Tord has childhood trauma, he was a child soldier in my timeline, get this poor man some therapy

Words: 1k

It was too quiet.

Fuck, it was way too quiet.

There was no sound that could drown out the sound of your beating heart, pounding rapidly in your chest as your dreams slipped away from your memories.

Night terrors were the worst.

They always felt so real, so horrifying, so deadly.

You never remembered what they were about. When you inevitably woke up in the morning, the events that plagued your dreams always disappeared in a matter of seconds. Like mist escaping your hands no matter how tightly you grasped.

The only thing left in the end was the fear.

The paranoia.

It was worse when you woke up at night.

In the darkness, there was no banishing your fears. There was no sunlight to chase away the monsters. No sounds of the boys bustling about in the kitchen, starting their days. No sound of Edd cooking breakfast, Tom yelling at Matt to hurry up in the bathroom while Matt blared his upbeat morning music playlist to get him hyped for work, not a care in the world while he did his skincare. It was just… silence.

But you had one saving grace. One hope to calm your frayed nerves.

One person that you knew would be awake.

The hallway didn't ease your paranoia at all. The shadows crawled along the walls, reaching towards you like they were going to swallow you up. Shapes and figures loomed just beyond the light, waiting to lure you in. At least, that's what it felt like.

You shook your head to banish the thoughts of monsters and shadows. There was nothing there, you told yourself. Nothing there.

Your steps hesitated when you reached the door beside yours.

The lights were off.

The lights were never off.

Was he asleep this time? Did he change his mind about the offer he made you? Did he decide to abandon you, leave you to become a victim to the horrors waiting for her in her dreams?

Your breathing wavered as you brought your hand up to the door. Should you knock? Should you wake him up and risk making him grumpy? Or should you abort the mission, head back to your room with your tail between your legs and waste the midnight hours away by doom scrolling on your phone?

Anxiety eventually won out, and you knocked gently on the wood.

For a minute or two, there was nothing. Silence. You hated silence.

But then, there was shuffling. A groan and something hissed in a different language - you recognized it as a swear.

The door opened.

Tord looked like shit.

He was in a t-shirt and boxers despite the autumn chill. His hair was a mess, sticking up in various places. His skin was pale (paler than normal), with dark circles under his eyes. A thin sheen of sweat cloaked his skin. His sharp silver eyes were dulled, clouded over with sleep. A lazy storm churning in the sky in the hours before the rain fell.

This was such a bad idea.

An apology was on the tip of your tongue, starting to turn away from his door, but he stopped you. Put his hand around your wrist and gently tugged you towards him.

Don't be silly. Come inside.

Maybe this wasn't the worst idea.

--

It was one of those nights. The nights when midnight hits and the house is still but Tord remains unable to sleep. Unlike usual, he isn't alone. His too quiet room is filled with her presence. Her even breathing keeps the thoughts from his head. He could feel her arm pressed against the side of his leg. She was there. Somewhere. He was not alone.

Her whispers broke the silence. He'd never complain. She wanted to know if he was awake. He couldn't push the words out from his mouth. So instead, his hand found her calf next to his torso. His heart pumped faster when he felt the shiver through her body.

Silence. She wasn't sure. He moved his fingers, letting her know he heard her. He was awake. He was alive.

She spoke again. The softness in her voice made his chest ache. Since when could voices be so soft? She couldn't sleep either. Something about the stillness was unnerving. For her, it was anxiety. Paranoia, as she'd say- she always did have a knack for invalidating her own feelings. He wasn't so lucky. His hatred for still nights couldn't be medicated away. It was trained into him. Survival instincts that had been coded into him when he was young. Too young.

He closed his eyes tightly. Almost perfectly he could picture that forest. Frost on the trees, frozen ground underneath. A deadly chill in the air that slowly seeped into every fiber of his bones. The beautiful night sky a deception to the danger in each corner. If he focused, slowed his breathing, he could hear the footsteps of the lynx that had been hunting him for the past 5 hours. How many miles had it been following him for? Why was it toying with him instead of sinking its teeth into his flesh?

He went too far into his memories. Felt the claws tearing through his clothes, ripping into the skin of his back. Felt the pain course into his body, too hot and too cold all at the same time. Heard the gunshot echo through the clearing and felt the dead weight drop on top of him. He could hear his father's words as he was brought to the medics; You let your guard down, Sønn. Jeg er skuffet over deg.

A hand moved on top of his, squeezing his fingers gently. The pressure was enough to bring him back from the forest. Bring him in from the cold. To her. To the warmth of home.

His back throbbed, the claw shaped scars along his spine all too fresh in his mind.

She whispered his name. Small. Tired. Vulnerable. Searching for comfort. Searching for him.

He squeezed back. Letting her know that he was right there.

She was not facing the stillness alone.

And neither was he.

For the character opinion bingo can yuo do felix..

This fucking guy. I have such a torrid relationship with this character. I've spent a lot of time joking about actively hating him, just because (especially back in 2021, when I first got into The Walten Files) there was such a gross oversaturation of these terrible, bland, thoughtless interpretations of the character. Like so many people saw this really interesting sort of character, and watered him down into something that was more personally palatable and sympathetic for them.

I don't know. Felix is so uninteresting when you don't hold him accountable for anything. I remember a lot of people trying to pin the responsibility for his actions onto the other people in his life, chiefly Jack, because they sympathized with his personal struggles and wanted to woobify him into a character who had never really done anything wrong. Which is such a shame, because that sort of wishy-washy attitude a lot of the fandom had taken towards his actions really soured me on him for a while. And that's not fair, because he's a genuinely fantastic and really interesting character.

I've always loved Felix when it comes to canon depictions of him, y'know? Because it's so free of that kind of Fandom Baggage. Even the good fandom Felix content has to bear the burden of that baggage a lot of the time, and it's worsened for it. But it's like, man, I always forget how fucking fascinating Felix is until we get some Fun New Canon, or someone in the fandom writes or draws something really good, and then it all comes back to me. I'm dying to see more of this character. I really want to get further into his head. I want to see exactly the depths of depravity he's willing to go to save his own skin, and I want to see how he justifies it to himself all the while.

I think a lot about his Formerly Positive relationships with other characters, too, because I think even before things went bad, Felix was always pretty self-centered. Very upbeat and overfriendly to the point where it seems, very obviously, like he's compensating for something. I think he cares a lot about what people think of him, but doesn't necessarily value other peoples' opinions. I think he very genuinely thinks of himself as the smartest person in the room, but is chronically resentful of everybody else in his life for outsmarting him. I really love the idea of everything with him being this sort of paradox. He's so self-deprecating, thinks so little of himself, but would move hell and high water to avoid actually changing and improving anything about his life. He's always so sorry, when he does something wrong and it blows up in his face, but the last thing he'd ever be willing to do is try and do better next time. He treats every tragedy that befalls him as some terrible innevitability he's subjected to, instead of the natural consequences of his own, controllable behavior.

I've already said I think Jack was a bit of an emotional anchor for him, in a way where Jack was this sort of representation of a Successful, Fulfilled man, so Felix really craved validation from him. He would always try, with varying degrees of success, to be on Jack's good side, because having Jack tell him he had done a good job made him feel that much closer to being the Pinnacle of Success he imagined Jack to be. And in this way, Jack was sort of dehumanized by Felix from the very beginning. Jack, in many ways, stopped being Felix's friend, an important person in his life, and started being this idyllic representation of a Good Man that Felix both resented and desperately clung to.

I think about this idea a lot when rewatching Guilty and hearing Felix try and justify his actions to himself through the lens of how Jack would feel. He had to bury Edd & Molly, because Jack would be devastated to see them like that. He could never do that to Jack, his best friend. Jack would be devastated. That's why it has to be a secret, why Jack can never know. He's doing good, he's protecting Jack's feelings. It's such a fundamental disconnect from the reality of the situation, and it feels to me a lot like he's projecting this imagined idea of Jack Walten onto the circumstances to soothe himself, and in the process is denying the real Jack Walten his autonomy in the situation. Jack doesn't get to be told what happened and decide for himself how to feel, Felix gets to decide how Jack would probably feel, and act on that instead.

Imagine for a moment, this same situation, but involving something much less terrible and serious. Maybe Jack has a nice vase in his house that he likes and is important to him. Maybe one day, Felix comes over and, when Jack is in the other room, accidentally knocks it on the floor, and it shatters. Felix, imagining how upset Jack would be to know his favorite vase was broken, sweeps it discreetly into the garbage, and plays stupid when Jack asks about it later. Now, Jack: 1. Never gets the closure of knowing that happened to this thing that he valued so dearly. He never knows if it was stolen or misplaced and is in one piece somewhere out in the world, or if it really was broken, and he should give up trying to recover it. 2. Never gets to decide what should happen in the aftermath of this vase being broken. Maybe he, too, was just going to sweep it into the garbage. But maybe, beforehand, he would take the opportunity to mourn this broken thing before it was out of his life forever. Or maybe he'd try to glue the shards back together. The point is not what he does, but the fact that he was never given the chance to decide what he would do.

I'm worried that last paragraph might come off as pretty patronizing. The point I'm trying to make is just that I don't think Felix really considers Jack as an autonomous person, and that's a really interesting part of their dynamic to me that I think is relatively really underutilized.

Apparently I have a lot to say about Felix Kranken. There's a lot more I could say, but this post is so fucking long already, holy shit.

(A/n): I am just adding my own art since I ran out of gifs

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"The base is under attack!"

A voice yells, an alarm following after it. The mood suddenly changes, panic entering (Y/n)'s brain.

Tord turns to her with a stern expression "Head to the safe room, immediately" He commands her, looking her in the eyes.

He didn't say much after that, rushing out of the room. (Y/n) could hear is rapid footsteps becoming quieter.

'Right, safe room. Just go to the safe room...' The (h/c)nette's face becomes pale, when realising. 'I don't know where the safe room is'

Opening the door, (Y/n) peaks out of it. Her (e/c) eyes scan the hallway, finding it empty. "Okay, so no enemy soldiers, but also no red army soldiers that can show me the way" she mutters.

She strolls through the hallway, cautiously looking around. Her (e/c) eyes notice a shadow on the wall, but it quickly moves out of her sight. She runs after it, hearing the person match their tempo.

Now knowing that they were running from her, she calls out "Hey, stop right there!" She reaches for her gun, trying to catch up to them.

Finally, she find them standing infront of the lab. Their back was turned to her, their big black coat hiding their appearance. Their figure was tall and a bit scruffy.

They turn around to reveal a man with messy brown hair with a unshaved beard. They hold up a regular gun towards (Y/n), before it transforms into something more futuristic.

Her eyes looks at his hair, before looking down at the green hoodie underneath his coat "Edd..?" She mumbles with a shocked expression.

Edd's brown eyes widen, regonises the voice. He slowly lowers the gun as his eyebrows furrow "(Y/n)?"

There was a silence between the two, both shocked to see eachother at a red army base. Edd looked like a homeless man, and (Y/n) was in a red army uniform.

His brown eyes shift over to the left, before they widen. "(Y/n), look out–!" was the only thing he could tell. A bullet flies through the air, coming right for the girl. In a split second, it hits her Pinkie finger and blow it off her hand.

(Y/n) screams agony as she crouches down on the ground, holding her bleeding hand. It felt like hand was aflame, eyes prick in the corner of her eyes.

Looking from the hurt soldier, back to door and then back, Edd thinks between his options. He opens the door and goes in, closing the door behind. A regretful expression fades on his face as he reaches towards a case that stood at the end of the room.

Betrayed, (Y/n) looks heart broken as Edd dissapeared from her sight. She hears Tom's voice, seeming not too far. "These guys are weak, how did they even get here" It sounded like he was getting closer, another person with him.

"(Y/n)! Are you okay?" Matt's voice call out, running towards his old friend. He crouches next to her, checking on her.

"Edd, he went in there" (Y/n) mumbles, pointing shakingly with her injured hand at the door. She was still shocked by the blow, trying her best to calm her breathing.

Tom approaches the door, opening it. The room was isolated, a case in it was open and empty. "He took the time machine" Tom conclude, seeming to very annoyed. "Matt, take her to the health station. I'm going to get another time machine, Edd is going back to kill himself"

The ginger was surprised by Tom's explanation. He nods and helps (Y/n) off the floor. He felt bad, seeing her so shaken up. He walks her to the health station, being greeted by a nurse.

She sets (Y/n) down on a bed, walking to get some bandage. Matt couldn't stay, as he had to follow Tom to another time machine. The girl was alone, watching as the nurse wrapped her hand in bandage. She was happy she didn't get worse.

There was a knock on the door, it sounded like metal hitting the wood. The door handel was pushed down and the door opens, revealing Red Leader. His single looks over to the nurse and then over to (Y/n), he clears his throat "Mrs. Soro, can you give us some privacy?"

The nurse give the quick bow, walking out the door. There was a silence after she left. (Y/n) looks up at him, waiting for him to say something.

Tord let's out a sigh, before taking a seat next to her. He grabs her now four fingered hand, his thumb softly stroking it. His eyebrows furrow as he observes the spot where your Pinkie used to be. "I should've gone with you, you wouldn't have ended up like this" He mutters, his heart aching.

"It's fine, it was out of your control. I'm happy that I didn't get shot anywhere vital" A small smile appears on (Y/n)'s face, her gaze was slightly turned down.

Tord's mechanic hand takes ahold of her jaw, pushing it up to meet his gaze "I can't just watch you get hurt, you mean too much to me"

His words make the girl widen her (e/c), looking shocked at him. When she first met him after all these years, he was cold. But now, he felt sincere, like a different person. She didn't notice that the space between them became smaller.

His lips met her, (Y/n) notes how surprisingly soft his lips. She begins to kiss him back, placing her none injured hand on his shoulders. It felt kinda like a reward, after all they went through. Their moment of peace.

They part for air, looking at eachother, his red mechanic thumb brushes over her lower lip "You'll be on my side for now on, I promise you won't be hurt again.

┗━°⌜ 赤い糸 ⌟°━┛

Tom walks through a door, holding a file. He approaches a desk, placing the file on it "Here is the file you requested for, (Y/n)"

The one sitting at the desk grins "That's not what you're supposed to call me". She leans on her hand, where a mechanical pinkie attached to it.

"I am not going to call you that"

"Who is higher position here, hm?"

Tom sighs, pinched the bride of his nose "Yes, Crimson general"

[cherrypopc0la]

Do you have any ideas or headcanons for the 40s guys?

*rubs hands*

Yes.

40's men headcanons

Edd: Sexuality-wise, he's gay! I'm giving him a bit of my own familial story, I have a several-times-great grandfather who was gay and had 5 kids. He and his ex-wife had a very civil divorce and she was surprisingly accepting! I'd say it took Edd a long time to figure himself out, everyone has their path of self-discovery that takes different amounts of time, sometimes even your whole life. (I Headcanon all Edds to be hairy bears cause why not? I mean his furry version IS a bear.)

Tord: Believe it or not, he's also an artist like Edd, but he doesn't draw as much as him. He's more focused on anatomy "studies" whenever he has time and access to paper and pencil. Out of all versions of Tords, he's got the sharpest aim because all he HAS is his guns during the war. Aim perception is a skill, just like everything that requires skill and practice. Also, I'm giving him parental issues where he doesn't have a very good relationship with one of them, things are either super stressful or simple during the 40's, there's no in-between...

Matt: During the war, he and Tom have dabbled in drag, and it's of reference to an actual historical moment where soldiers would do things in drag to distract the enemy because they'd be busy laughing instead of trying to kill them (They had to get Edd and Tord to join in since they're always together during the war, Edd hated it, but he did what he had to for survival). Since Matt can fly, he's always flying and scoping around things, I'd say he'd also do it along with the Night Witches. (Night Witches is an all-female group of aviation pilots who were feared by the Germans, the Germans hated them so much that they gave out rewards to those who could manage to take one down.)

Tom: For someone who had a rough upbringing, he developed CPTSD over it. He doesn't like talking about it if you try to ask or mention it, he'll immediately either shut YOU down or shut down himself. He's good at masking due to doing it his entire life, it's such a bad habit that he doesn't know how to stop it.

The guys develop PTSD after the war, and they all eventually move somewhere more secluded and quiet for their own sake of sanity, they hate fireworks for obvious reasons. The guys will always have each other's backs when the war ended, they don't care what happens, they're just happy to have each other, happy that they all made it out alive. They all became extremely anti-war, they want nothing to do with war after all that has happened to them.

Hi silly! :3 What would Tords opinion be on the other three? Or Paul + Pat? Any past problems left unhealed, or perhaps problems to be elaborated on in future asks?

Hello! This is how Tord feels about everyone! I’ll probably do more characters another time :3

CW: Mentions and references to Tord getting hit by his instructor.

Starting with how he feels about Edd.

Tord never really had any issues with the guy. He was a pleasant roommate, and they used to get along pretty well.

Even when coming back, Edd and Tord are pretty chill!

But everything shifts when Edd forms the Resistance. Tord was honestly ready to just take Edd in, make him a solider, and keep tabs on him. Tord really did plan to treat him well.

Despite Edd actively trying to destroy the Red Army, Tord genuinely admires his determination and wit.

Tord does in fact feel betrayed by Edd, but assumes the other also feels betrayed.

Okay. Tord HATES Tom.

Kinda

Thinks Tom is stubborn, stupid, rude, unpleasant, unmotivated.

But SO insanely strong. Especially with the monster abilities.

Tord does feel a bit bad for all of the experiments, but he really can’t be bothered to try and make Tom feel at home.

Unless Tom decides to start cooperating. Maybe then Tord will let up on him a little.

They never got along in the first place

Tord genuinely cares for Matt. And Matt has seemed very accepting of the idea of joining Tord.

Matt doesn’t seem to have any internal drive or heavy ambition, but he can get tasks done pretty well.

He’s always been kind to Tord. He has a great personality, and always lightens up the mood.

Overall, they’re friends.

They just don’t talk about Matt’s face. Ever.

Tord is besties with Patryck.

I’m not even exaggerating when I say besties.

They are genuinely best friends. Pat has been there for Tord over and over and over again, always providing emotional and mental support.

Pat is always taking tasks and work off of Tord’s hands.

Tord admires Pat in every single way, and is immensely inspired by him.

They are literally two peas in a pod. They are tight as fuck.

Tord sees Paul as an older brother/mentor figure.

Tord has INSANE respect for Paul.

Like will literally stand at attention with the rest of his army if Paul is commanding.

Paul took Tord under his wing. It was rough and stressful at first. Physical discipline from Paul hurt. Tord had been hit before, but holy shit Paul had a strong hand.

Tord is loyal to Paul until he fucking dies.

Creator here! I'm gonna put some do's and donts with my blog and each character because they're all different:3

Creator: Please, no NSFW, i'm a MINOR. If I see an NSFW ask, im not gonna answer it. Also, no problematic shit. Please. I'm not gonna answer those.

Yes: Ask questions about me! I don't mind sharing a bit of the artist magic with you guys :3 YES I'LL DO ART REQUESTS, I DON'T MIND THEM AT ALL X3

--------------------------------------------------------

Edd:

No: Ask about how he got his horn. He'll probably lash on the Anon, and I don't wanna hide more bodies. Also, DON'T ASK HIM PEPSI OR COLA. He'll look at you like you're stupid. Don't ask him about who he loves either. He'll get flustered and not answer.

Yes: Give him stuff! He appreciates all the things he gets and keeps them safe. Especially art! He really likes fanart. :3

--------------------------------------------------------

Tom:

No: Ask him about his parents. He'll kill you. Don't give him diet smirnoff. He'll just throw it away, and that'd be a waste of an ask.

Yes: Give him compliments! He's fine with those and will accept them, no matter how bad they are. He's just happy ppl like him. (Creator here. You can also give him affection! I'll draw an Anon for you and draw you giving him the type of affection that you wrote! :3)

--------------------------------------------------------

Matt:

No: Break his mirrors. He will cry. Don't insult him either. He'll also cry. : (

Yes: Give him things! More stuff for the novelty toy collection.

HELL YES: Give him affection and compliments! He'll be incredibly happy :]

--------------------------------------------------------

Tord:

No: Ask about his army. Since he's been lost for so long, the last thing he told Paul and Patryck was to take care of it. He misses it. DON'T GIVE HIM A GUN, HE WILL USE IT (you can this is just a warning).

Yes: Give him *hugs* specifically. He likes hugs. Just nothing more than hugs.

--------------------------------------------------------

Almost forgot to link my lore blog! A certain ask reminded me to, so thanks a whole bunch Kai! (You know who you are <3)

Click here! Link for my normal blog is in the pinned comment there!

[cherry-dr0p]

I WISH TO RAMBLE!! IM NOT GONNA INCLUDE IMAGES BECAUSE I DONT WANNA BUT HERE WE GO

HUGE TWF4 SPOILERS

I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY!!!

Im not gonna lie, the start kinda had me like "This is what I waited ages for?" But then when the animatronic testing came around, thats when my interest truly started to pick up.

First of all, WHY WOULD YOU TGINK THAT FACIAL RECOGNITION FOR ANIMATRONICS IS A GOOD IDEA??? GENUINELY DID NO ONE HAVE THE COMMON SEMSE TO GO "HM, THIS MAY END NOT GOOD". Like I kind of understand the appeal for it because they may want the kids to feel,, more connected to the animatronics?? I dunno. But like?? I can understand for that time period the desire to have the animatronics interact with the audience (Not saying its a good idea but at least I can understand with this one why they may think it is in my head), but cmon..

Then from what I remember, the sprites came. And Good god did they creep me out slightly when I first saw them, especially Edd and Molly. I dunno, there was something extra creepy in my eyes seeing kids' faces messed up like that. Crazy. I also screamed when I finally saw "Bon" because Ive been keeping up with the Twitter TWF community somewhat, which means I already technically knew about "Bon". It was pretty cool to have him finally introduced in the actual story himself. Also Charles and Susan talking about Felix's addiction and if they should tell Rosemary and Jack(?) is crazy.

Aaaahhh but then the scene with Jack came around. Was rooting for him ngl. I honestly thought he died at the well scene but I dont see any correlation to that quite yet,, mayhaps. Felix almost jumping did make me feel a tiny bit bad for him bit like,, still. Fuck you Felix. I still hate him and 100% think hes getting what hes deserving. He feels guilty? Good. He should.

I cant remember if the Susan scene comes after this or not but I erm uh,,, That was VERY well done!! It gave me chills how you could still hear her breathe. Genuinely. The blood as well and Rocket closing their eyes?? Crazy. The jittery animation drove me insane, it was such an amazing detail that made things far more uncomfortable.

I cant remember where abouts the other Felix scene came but,, HE DOESNT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH ROCKET. I DUNNO,, DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN TAKE IT WITH YOU?? PUT IT IN YOUR HOME OR RESTAURANT?? WHY DID YOU THINK THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA. I SWEAR, MY GUY HAS NEGATIVE BRAINCELLS... But I also think we all know why he's so attached,, him getting haunted by the kids is wild.

The last scene very much makes me think "Bon" is Jack. I unno, very much could be wrong but just the way he talks and is dressed makes me think he is. The fact that he knows so well of what hes talking about and the voice,, maybe the general face shape too. Me thinks its either Brian(Ive saw that theory floating around) or Jack, but Im more leaning towards Jack. It also freaked me out slightly the way Susan came on all deformed too, that was freaky. The voices of all the characters in this new afterlife were very VERY cool too. And the whole mask being given and "Bon" talking about making her "beautiful" too? That was cool. The scene with Edd and Molly debating whether to save Susan too filled my heart with a weird sort of awe. They have a great relationship as siblings together imo, I do very much love their dynamic.

It'd be cool to see the other two episodes for the finale which I think are coming out very soon!! Which is very exciting!! I 100% reccomend TWF4, it's phenomenal and the wait was 200% worth it in my eyes. You can definitely see the developers heart and soul being put into this project, which is very nice to see. In my eyes, you dont see it often. I dunno if I missed out a scene or two from my rant but overall? I adored watching this (Ive already told some of my friends to watch it >:3).

Rant over anyways, buh bye for now :3

[cola-losers]

Okay actually let me give some positives

So while I say this is a perfectly mid episode I do mean that I don't think it's a bad one I just don't think it's great it's like, room temperature water. It's like unbuttered toast

Still enjoyable but you probably want some ice water or butter toast

But let's go with the Goods™:

-very nice to see returning background characters I'm a background character fan I can't help it I get excited when I see these little guys. New or returning (returning was great though oh my goodness seeing the vampire that bit Matt or seeing one of the Atlanteans was 👌👌)

-I think the montage was great, I like montages and I think this one was fine I really enjoyed Tom and Edd's parts in the montage more than Matt's but his was okay

-I think it was really cute that 3rd and 2nd place went to two little kids good for those kids

-this episode had much better pacing than part 1 or Beaster Bunny, there wasn't as many random awkward quiet moments you can really feel that Beyond is finding its footing

-that ending sequence were Matt falls to the ground and we got Tom and Edd picking him up? Fantastic

-the gag with the Beach Hunks Tom water activated was pretty good, it got a chuckle out of me

-I know some people may find the Easter eggs to real life things annoying but I don't that's been an Eddsworld staple for a while, it's fun to pause on :>

-I like the after credit stuff I think it's really neat that they're starting to play around with this being a show, maybe there will be some big payoff in the future who knows

Now for the Meh™

-I think it kind of suffered from the guys being separated this trio of idiots bounce off of each other very well so with them all separated it just felt like something was missing

-kind of wish there was more spoken jokes or at least more spoken gags? A lot of the jokes were visual and while I do like visual jokes I think there should be a balance

-I was not into the trio of bullies at all whenever they were on screen I was just thinking that this should have been the neighbors, if you were just going to do Tom and Edd vs some guys why not have it be Mark & Eduardo?

-oh boy the shipping joke was not good. We get it, shipping bad fandom bad. Screw the audience jokes have been done before and they can be done rather well, both Fan Service episodes kind of tease this and I think they were just better. Fan Service 2 teased the shipping better tbh

-I wasn't into part 2 still having the competition go on actually I thought by part 2 Tom and Edd we're going to see Lobster Matt and have to fight it or something you know an actual adventure this was just kind of "things happen"

-personal opinion but I did not want to see Matt vore some kids, I mean I know he's a monster and monsters eat people that's fine but it was just kind of like :|

Final Conclusion:

This is pretty all right but probably not one I'm going to rewatch often. It's a very mixed bag but it's one that was worked hard on and you can tell. A solid 5/10

[eddxeddyfanboy]

Double Dee Headcanons:

I think Edd definitely has autism and he's very excited to have found the Eds because I think that it made him feel very left out during his childhood, and he had a hard time making friends because they always knew he was different

As was the case with me and a lot of people I know, I think that his autism eventually developed into BPD or some other personality disorder and it makes it even harder for him to get be involved with or feel close to his peers

Double Dee has a very hard time with dogs, they're loud, and they jump on him and he doesn't like the way they smell, I also think that he might have gotten bit by a dog at some point in his childhood and now has a fear of them

He definitely has a cat that he loves very much, I headcanon that he and the Eds found a stray cat at some point, probably a black cat, and Eddy was scared of it because of superstition and Edd went on a long rant about how black cats are harmless

Then he felt bad for the poor cat because all the neighborhood kids were a little wary of it, so he took it in and bathed and fed it, and then it wouldn't leave him alone, so he decided to keep it

I feel like it would be a girl cat, and he would name her some old lady name like Eleanor, he calls her Ellie for short

Not mine, but I really like the headcanon that I've heard about him having a ballet bun under his hat, he's been doing ballet as an outlet since he was little, and it makes him feel more secure to have his hair up, that's why he has bobby pins in his hat

These are just a few of my headcanons for him, let me know if you guys would like to hear more!

[psybe4m]

So, Surf and Turf Wars pt. 2 just dropped, and I’d like to do a mini-review again, just like I did for the first part.

I try to be as unbiased as possible when it comes to reviewing these, as I don’t want to have an “old good, new bad” mindset. I like legacy, and it’s quite different from the classic era. So I try to give everything a fair chance.

and now for the actual review:

_

5.5/10

Yeah, once again, like my first review…it’s just alright. The whole “lobster monster Matt” wasn’t really to my taste comedy-wise. The whole “big monster does big monster stuff” isn’t really funny to me.

And I feel like this eddisode suffered from separating the guys. I feel like the way Tom and Edd are written in beyond isn’t entertaining enough to carry long scenes where it’s just them. (Which *might* be kind of controversial? Maybe. Because I know a lot of people liked their scenes together in part 1.) But, even so, the two of them are sidelined HARD in this and I’m not even sure why.

Also…I’m not a fan of how many jokes are relegated to random one-off characters. Like, I’m here for the guys. Not randoms. And yes, I know that both past eras of eddsworld had jokes with one-off characters. But they were using pretty sparingly, and never felt like it took away from the comedy.

Not to mention that both of the ongoing plots: the Matt plot, and the Tom and Edd plot…were both a bit stale. Both plots didn’t really end in any satisfying way. It’s was pretty anticlimactic. If it were up to me, I would’ve just had Matt be with Edd and Tom on the beach doing the competitions. The eddsworld guys work great when they’re all together. Plus…lobster Matt doesn’t even interact with Edd and Tom?? What’s the point then?

And all the jokes were very…meh. I’m just gonna accept at this point that Matt’s writing style isn’t my cup of tea.

OKAY. I know I just tore into this eddisode pretty harshly, but there are some nice positives and improvements that I noticed.

-Better pacing. The first part, imo, had really strange and awkward pacing. Like it was so sluggish at points, but also moved too fast sometimes. But that’s been remedied somewhat in the second part, and I like that.

-Less awkward: By “less awkward”, I mean there’s more music. Something thats bugged me about the beyond eps is that they felt awkward and quiet due to lack of music. But there’s more music now, yay.

-Montage. I liked the montage scene. Very eddsworld.

-Sonic popsicle on the ice cream truck. Because I’m massive sonic trash.

-

SO…yeah. That’s the review. Sorry if this is formatted shittily, I did it on my phone in a hurry, lol. And if you happen to have different opinions on this eddisode, totally cool.

Kinda sucks that pretty much all of beyond hasn’t been what I’d hoped. Everyone else is enjoying it though, and I can’t help but feel like squidward looking out the window in that one meme. 😭 I wanna like it so bad, but I just can’t. Beaster bunny, and the surf and turf pt. 1 and 2 have both just been misses for me.

…Also, Matt doesn’t like icecream. What’s up with that?
