When Miles actually gets an entire one-off animation just to be uncharacteristically comforting to someone he doesn't even know.
I legit don't remember this scene from previous playthroughs. Probably because the pixel artstyle made the shoulder touch hard to see so it didn't stand out as much? Idk. Putting the hand on his shoulder is such a sweet gesture though! Even if it's completely wasted on Portsman. Love that they put this in, Miles can be empathic after all!

Yknow i think that if they made House slightly more empathetic to the average joe his character couldve done wonders for the rights of people with chronic pain re: getting the medication they need without being labeled as drug seeking or addicts
#mafa talks#house md#a lot of his vicodin addiction character arc has to do with addiction despite the fact that he is better off with it than without it#due to his pain#and they make him very very unlikeable for someone who doesnt already have a predisposition to empathize with him#specifically because he needs to be an antihero like i get it#but still theres so much potential there#for a show that was surprisingly progressive for its age it couldve gone the extra mile there#also i understand him. if i was in chronic pain in a job gilled with neurotypicals who think im a junkie little shit I'd be an asshole too#high empathy low sympathy autism gang

"what the hell are you doing standing around here for, penelope?! miles is getting away!!" "if i had known i could have stopped peter from dying, i would have done the exact same thing as him!! i'm not gonna sit by and watch someone else go through what i did, especially if that person can be saved!! i can't do that again, miguel!!"
in penelope's dimension, she was in love with her childhood friend/police captain peter parker. he died in her arms and she couldnt do anything to save him. the last thing he said to her was that he loved her, and she's carried that with her ever since. had she known that she could have been able to stop peter from dying, she would have done anything to save him.

the flash should have ended with barry quitting his job at ccpd to become a stay-at-home husband and that's on that
#the fun part is it genuinely could have ended like that. i have no idea. still haven't watched it#NOBODY TELL ME BTW#THAT IS NOT ME ASKING FOR SPOILERS. I'LL GET TO IT#but honestly it's the only thing that makes sense. i have genuine reasons for this#namely: how the fuck is iris. an incredible but ordinary non-speedster woman. meant to look after a baby speedster#ordinary babies are already making it their life's mission to die. eating shit they shouldn't. rolling over and suffocating.#idk i don't know about kids but i know babies are breakable and will roll off tables and god knows what else#now imagine you have a toddler and she can literally move at hundreds of miles per hour#how the fuck was iris meant to cope?#i still maintain that when they did the 'she put a power dampener in nora' plot it should have been like. not a control thing#but also yeah. literally a control thing because HOW THE FUCK ELSE WAS SHE MEANT TO LOOK AFTER HER BABY#if barry is gone and she's a single mother. assuming no other speedsters are around to help her. what the fuck else was she meant to do?#of course she had to suppress her powers because how can you stop your toddler running into traffic if she can run 1000 times faster than u#how do you keep her in her crib at night if she can phase through the bars?#in that sense. yeah it's fucked up. but you can understand it. you can empathize. what other options did she have?#so yeah stay-at-home dad barry is the only thing that makes sense for genuine safety reasons#he is quite literally the only one who can keep up with the kids#they dropped the ball on nora is all i'm saying. again. fic that lives in my head where original nora's death actually means something#and we get a new nora who is ACTUALLY a different person. as she would be considering her whole upbringing was different#and she has to somehow live up to the memory of a version of her that was erased from time#part of barry and iris can't accept that that specific version of their daughter is gone and it's not her#THE ANGST POTENTIALLLL#in my head she doesn't even go by nora because she's like. THAT'S NOT ME. SHE DIED. WHY CAN'T YOU ACCEPT WHO I AM AND LOVE ME FOR ME#she goes by dawn bc yeah im still kinda sad they didnt use that name#fictional characters give ur kid an original name instead of always naming them after dead ppl challenge#my fics#my meta

the way some people will just go out of their way to misconstrue m.cu peter is like. can we get a new bit maybe
#now genuine mcu writing criticism i understand and agree with. also some choices regarding his creation in general#but talking about him as if he just accepts may's death and 'his fate' right there in comparison to atsv is. oh my god#he did not just say 'okay' and move on. tobey and andrew were NOT telling him to accept may's death 'because it had to happen'#they were showing solidarity with this grieving kid and trying to prevent him from spiraling over something that had Already Happened#and this whole movie was peter REFUSING TO LISTEN and SAVING THE LIVES of multiple villains that he was told were supposed to die#not ONCE in any movie he's been in has he EVER been one to listen to authority?? if he had been told that may would die before it happened#you're telling me you think he WOULDN'T have tried to save her?#if he were around for atsv he would empathize with and side with miles!#like i already HAD thoughts about the very similar position he was just in and how complicated he'd feel here but since spiderman fans#can't fucking handle nuance i'm making a point of the fact that he KNOWS where miles is coming from first#i also think the spiderverse movies are objectively better but there is no reason to be This obtuse about his characterization#🕸 ❝ i have nothing left… except spider man ❞ → ooc#atsv spoilers#kind of??

I think… people who watched atsv and came to the conclusion that miguel is a villain are a bit stupid. Or maybe theyre not using the right word
#spiderverse spoilers#atsv spoilers#cont in tags btw#I don’t think hes exactly a good guy or anything hes very much not#But i dont think its fair to call him a villain. an antagonistic force at most#We see his perspective with canon divergences and we’re supposed to understand why hes so irrational about this#empathize with him and all he doesnt want this happening to another spider man#hes just very irrational#especially when he lays out the truth for miles#that hes an anomoly and all#like yeah hes bitchy and hes unhinged and hes harsh and rude but you have to understand his perspective#he lost his entire universe because he caused so many anomalies and hes keeping every spiderman safe by keeping the canon#even if it means letting bad things happen and letting people close to them die#miguel alone and reading his character like this to me simply just adds to his character in the movie ugh i love him#atsv did such a good job with their characters and building their arcs i woill scream so loud#i cant wait to see what they do with him in beyond

the part of my brain that is constantly thinking about f/f rarepairs started pondering the idea of what if Deanna Troi met Kira what would they think of each other etc when i was struck with the thought
Deanna: "So, I hear you used to date my stepfather. What was that like?"
#like legit question tho deanna knows she has a stepdad somewhere that she never met before he returned to goo#the other dialogue snippets would be like#'you cover it well you know'#'cover what?'#'how much youre full of rage'#someone like miles maybe 'this is her hiding her rage??'#deanna gives a knowing look to kira 'oh yes. it is.'#deanna troi#kira nerys#i think deanna would surprise kira a bit when she asks to attend the religious service that the 1st officer is missing the staff dinner for#and deanna wanted to gain a better understanding of bajorans there but is quickly overwhelmed feeling the collective strength of their fait#*faith#and kira kind of expects deanna to expect her to be mad that she had to rush the two of them out so she's being extra reassuring#deanna explains her empathic abilities more clearly like she knows kira had assumed they were more metaphorical or vague#bc kira's frame of reference is a spiritual leader reading someone's pagh#and as deanna explains the nearly physical sensation of experiencing bajoran faith like that#kira feels much more seen than she's previously felt from starfleet regarding her beliefs#idk i got carried away in the tags here this was supposed to be a shitpost#my fic#might revisit this idea sometime when it's not 2am

i just find it so funny that after what happened in lb 7 ritsuka's sense of self-preservation and danger is just fucked. it's gone. snapped in half. you die twice in one lostbelt and fight ORT and now everything is just ' yeah sure cool why not'
setanta out here saying demonic beasts have a better sense of it while tiamat is calling them a delinquent because they don't want to go back just yet because why not! why shouldn't they help a beast regain their authority?? what's the worst that could happen ?? human order is already blocking them out the counter force going after ritsuka is just a little icing on the cake. a little pizazz. a little flavor to keep going through the seven singularities of arcade spicy. nothing like being hunted by demon pillars again and beung cut-off frrom chaldea it's like the good old days!!
#ooc tbt.#the counter force out here trying to kill them because theyre a Beast's master? even if the contract was forced?? no big deal#this happens all the time w/e i got it#i cannot stress enough that ritsuka is just so many levels of fucked#my guy we got 7 singularities#5-ish pseudo singularities#7 lostbelts#numerous fights against beasts Almost Beast gods and deities whatever is inside the fantasy trees#worth of trauma all packed inside one human#there is no unpacking the suitcase this is a whole ass storage facility of cases#and not a single one of them is getting unpacked#but it's fine she's escaped talking about it this long#she can manage! she's managing!!! there's nothing wrong!!!!#every empath needs to stay at least ten miles away from ritsuka at all times for their own sanity

Shining a light on “unfavorable” placements. pt.1
Within astrology, I notice a lot of people addressing only the dark sides of dark placements. These placements being considered as unfavorable and or “unfortunate”. However, tougher aspects/placements are generally considered to be gifts, though they are challenges, I see them as direct callings on what allows the individual to reach success. I am not a professional but these are patterns/observations I make from personal experience and life all around me. Now buckle up, this’ll be a long post, I’ll be discussing only planetary/object placements, next part will be aspects however, less descriptive.
-----------------------------------------------
12H & 8H Suns and Moons
12H Suns are considered to be unfavorable however, this placement is actually a gift, though the sun is “shadowed” in this area; individuals with 12H are actually here on a mission, though it is bleak to see, individuals with this placement have power and it’s not even locked potential, it’s just power that they cannot see themselves but naturally exude. 12H suns are directly connected to the subconscious, they have this “one foot in one foot out” approach to reality, they are immensely creative and are gifted with compassion at early ages, though they don’t realize it, they tend to be ahead of the game in the early stages of life
12H Moons; these individuals are given heavy emotions, probably even a transformative connection with their mother, their emotions is where their spiritual knowledge lies, they have strong intuition and are the true empaths of astrology. Those with this placement are driven by their feelings, they know the ins and outs and have all the secrets, this is more hidden/internal knowledge, similar to 12H suns, they can gain a lot of knowledge later in life
Now 8H Suns/Moons are similar to one another. Individuals with these placements have true power in them, and they are gifted with depth and intensity that people are actually afraid of. These are the type of people to get told something toxic about themselves and they hit you with a “I know.” or they will outwardly tell you themselves (If other points in the chart agree). They are masters when it comes to shadow work and they are constantly changing–if you don’t see them for at least a month and they come back, their mindset could have taken a complete 180, for better or for worse. The 8H expands everything it touches, it creates an intense amount of depth to the matter. These individuals also tend to have a lot of people that will outwardly try to put them down, whether it is directly or indirectly, they also tend to have karma on their side. Their Image(Sun) and their emotions(moon)are heavily protected and praying on these individuals' downfall is like asking for a spiritual ass whooping.
Mercury in Pisces & Sagittarius:
Having Mercury in Pisces is an unfavorable placement, these individuals could be seen as forgetful, in a constant cycle of daze, and emotionally detached. However, the thoughts that boil within the brain of this placement is insane. I mean, we have a civil rights activist and a famous genius with this placement, if that doesn’t tell you anything idk what to tell you. These individuals are gifted with a lot of creativity, their thoughts actually run a mile a minute, they are typically well versed in various hobbies, these are the type of people if you ask what they do they might not give you one answer and hang around them long enough, you will see them having a new hobby every week. The ADHD masters, they’ll tell you they never played an instrument and hop on and immediately sound like an intermediate musician. These people have seen and heard it all, they are intelligent and their words hold weight. They say one thing and it’ll last you a lifetime, their advice sits in the back of people’s minds, their words are food for the soul, everything they say is more calculated and meaningful than even they think themselves. Truly underrated.
Next my lovely Sagittarian Mercuries. These individuals could be seen as rude, blunt, obnoxious, and or lacking emotional depth but just like their jupiterian sister pisces; they are much wiser than they put on. These individuals are witty, they are intelligent, they are humorous, their words hold power as well, they tell the truth and they build people up, they’re down to earth and self-assured, they have a way of making people listen, they are captivating in their words and can be lyrically gifted, natural poets in their own way.
Cadent Dominant Placements:
Being Cadent Dominant in my learnings is considered to have most of your placements within the 3H, 6H, 9H, and 12H. In addition, in case you don’t know, cadent houses are the houses further away from the angular houses and after the succedent houses, they tend to be where the most work has to happen are seen as challenging placements to have. Now, these individuals are smart as fuck, for lack of a better term. They are gifted with an inner drive, a drive that not many people will see or understand but themselves, these individuals have the power of moving masses. Though their efforts are indirect, they tend to hit people when it’s least expected–driven, misunderstood and powerful. 3H placements are well versed in communication, 6Hers know how to get shit done, 9Hers and 12Hers are mass movers and the backbone influencers. Having these placements indicate someone important, possibly even beyond a metaphysical sense. They don’t stop until they win and their perseverance is remarkable just as their lives are.
Saturn/Uranus/Pluto Ruled or Dominance (etc.)
Talk about “fuck around and find out”, these indivudals are like the older or even the middle children in astrology, many people with significant Pluto/Saturn/Uranus in their chart, this includes being ruled(MC & ASC), having it as a dominant planet, placed within the 1H, or aspecting Sun/Moon/Asc–tend to be protected like crazy. They tend to go through a lot of inner struggle and tend to constantly have something to work on, it’s like once they’re done with one lesson they’re given another. It’s like being stuck with chores all day and you’re finally done with your last one and once you’re about to step outside or go to your room to lay down, their parents call them and ask them to do something else and the cycle goes on lol. These individuals are resilient and are hardworking, they’re unique and nothing generally gets past them, you fuck with them, you’re fucking with their team as well, and best believe the universe is ready to dish back what you sent in tenfold; this even applies to the individual, but they rarely fuck up cause they know how it can get everytime. Gifted with power, control and drive, these individuals are goal-oriented, they don’t let anything get in their way and if there is even a slight indication of a distraction about to occur, they shut it down real quick. I like this.
Saturn in Angular Houses (1H, 4H, 7H, 10H) and HM: 5H.
Saturn in these houses are hard hitting. Cracking my knuckles because I’m about to go IN. I will state the
To start, Saturn in the 1H, these individuals are constantly met with lessons that have to do with their identity, they will be put in situations where they are physically limited and their identity is limited/restricted, these people will obsess over themselves and hold themselves to a high standard. However, even through this, these individuals not only directly have karma on their side, but they are ultimately gifted with a deep knowing of self, they build their identity and it is a literal weapon to anyone who brings murky intentions into their world, simply because of how resilient they are and how much they worked through restriction in the past.
For Saturn in the 4H, they may have had issues that involved restriction with their family, this is heavy because they sat through that for their entire lives, up to 18 and possibly even further than that. These individuals weren’t able to make a house a home or generally find a proper home. In their older years, they work with this energy to make a place for themselves and others, they have the power of compassion and comfort.
For Saturn in the 7H & 5H, these individuals are known to have tough luck in love, relationships are rare and if they have many relationships, they are often restrictive and unsatisfactory. They may struggle additionally with their sense of worth and bear a false outlook on love. However, in some moments in their younger years and in their older years, they possess deep knowledge on love, they seem to take it seriously and their love is rich, they are gifted with deep compassion and the ability to be long term with other people. They have unforgettable love, and they are typically unforgettable people as a whole.
Lastly for Saturn 10H, these people could feel restricted career wise, they may feel that they’re always being attacked in their reputation and are held from their true potential, however, they actually overextend themselves more than what they were meant, they can influence and hold a lot of power.
These can also be applied to Pluto as well, with more of a transformative foundation, however, Saturn and Pluto tend to be both extremely transformative planets.
Chiron in Succedent Houses (2H, 5H, 8H, 11H)
These placements tend to fit in a similar category, they are often scarred with themes that are prioritized in life; Money, Fun, Transformation and Community. They tend to see others experience joy and balance within these themes however, they find that this is the source of their trauma and unhealthy codependency that they desire to break away from. Ultimately, these individuals are gifted with strength and influence, they are creative, influential and open-minded when conflicts are properly addressed.
-----------------------------------------------
In this post, I went into depth on placements that have more power than what is spoken about them; however, the dark tends to hold more truth about the light than the light does of itself. The placements listed are powerful and resilient, gifted with all sorts of things, and if you believe that something in your chart is insignificant, understand that astrology is a tool to access potential, it can hint at traits but it is not a concrete definition because there are other calculations that exist and have existed even beyond Traditional Western astrology. Next part will be on aspects, thank you for reading.

The thing is Noah and his father couldn't be more different, and the customized armor is only ever further proof of that.
Dealing with Eric reminds Cora of Alec, and they look a smidge more alike at a glance. It's sometimes a good thing, sometimes annoying, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes a disappointment, even though she tries hard not to think it, and even harder not to let it show.
Actually, one thing about Noah that probably reminds her of Alec is that he's certainly powerful and confident, bold and fearless, dangerous as hell when he's pissed. I also forget that despite several people knowing Alec as stubborn and distant, Alec genuinely knows how to give a speech and lead and inspire people,
Eric is more clever than he sometimes gives himself credit for, but he lacks Alec's steady confidence and definitely Alec's ability to work a crowd.
#oc: Noah Ryder#oc: Eric Ryder#Noah isn't quite a speech giver; not like Alec was and not how Miles is#but Noah is a nice empathic guy and he typically knows what to say#...and he can play a crowd a little bit; a bit of a performer#I think Eric is intensely jealous of Reyes for how good he is with his mouth#Eric is simultaneously careful and rash. Idc how to explain it. That temper and that mouth of his#gets the better of him too often#not in the Ezra way where Ezra doesn't give a shit and stands confidently next to everything he says

guys what if you were jessica’s personal assistant. what if your name was like phoebe or something, but everyone at the office calls you baby. you’re kind, gentle, and sweet, & everyone at the office has one thing in common. they all love baby.
you try not to get involved in the cases, too much of an empath (like mike) to be able to handle the harshness lawyers sometimes have to give clients you just plain feel bad for. you’re always inclined to help out anyone that needs it, and are practically a life saver.
you’re the reprieve in the office people need sometimes. harvey’s stress melting off him when he drops by to pick up files jessica had asked you to get to him, and you smile at him all sweet, handing him exactly what he needed to turn his case around. he asks you your price for saving him & you just tease, telling him to keep giving you that million-dollar smile as you both kiss at each other in a joking manner of departure.
or when mike feels like he’s drowning, mind going a million miles an hour as he stops by your desk. you were the only person kind to him from the start, and sometimes he just needs a reset to keep going. you hand him half the cutie you were eating as he sits in your chair, sighing as you lean against your desk. you tell him to stop thinking, just for a second. thirty seconds or so pass before he jumps out of his seat, finally putting the puzzle pieces together he needed, almost running down the hallway back to his cubicle shouting a “thank you, thank you baby!”
jessica adores you, and even the rudest clients eventually melt under your sweetness. you aren’t really sure where the name baby came from, but you’ll never hate it. knocking on harvey’s door, telling him jessica wants to see him & hearing him say a “thanks, baby.” in that voice of his is never anything you’ll complain about.
#suits#suits usa#harvey specter#mike ross#harvey specter x reader#mike ross x reader#lowkey this is more harvey sided if u squint#BUT I CANT HELP IT#he’s so fine#harvey is daddy#okay wait i figured it out#harvey is handsome#and mike is pretty#hope this helps#this is lowkey ass not too much#suits tv

Jayce walked miles in Viktor's shoes, ascending from the lowest fissure of Zaun to the highest spire of Piltover on broken leg and in diseased body only to be met by the reality of his own death.
Viktor faced countless years wasting in the loneliness Jayce feared when faced with Viktor's terminality, having never before even considered that Jayce might go first.
Both of them faced some of the most heinous things and the possibilities of what those meant for them personally, only to have to literally suffer each other's worst fears in the end. All just so they could finally understand the motivations pulling them along the other's path.
In the end, they both forgave the other, not because the other was right or wrong, but because they empathized with what led the other to their unique decisions - Viktor for thinking he wasn't enough because he had to put forth ten times the effort as everyone around him only to lose out in the end anyway, and Jayce because the idea of living in a world without the other half of his soul was literally too painful for him to bear to the point of absolute desperation.

Take Care of You + Silco
Synopsis. After an argument with Jinx, you comfort Silco as best as he’ll let you.
A/n. I want to start a series of Silco x jinx’s eldest sister!reader. Let me know what you think :p
You’d heard through the grapevine that Jinx had gotten into an argument with Silco. Now, doing odd jobs all around the Undercity (sometimes being recruited in the bright, shining streets of Piltover), you couldn’t do anything to calm your youngest sister’s mind when you were miles away.
When you did get home though, you immediately greeted the bouncers of The Last Drop with an exhausted smile and asked how bad he was doing.
The guy on the right- Cassin, if you remembered correctly- sighed. “It’s a relief to see you,” is all he said. You grimaced, knowing it had to be bad. “Jinx left about five hours ago and it’s been getting worse and worse. For everyone’s sake…”
Verin- the man on the left- finished, “Go talk to him.”
You nodded. “Have a good night, boys,” you told them as they pulled open the door. They replied with their usual ‘you too, ma’am’.
It was late enough. You signaled the bartender and told him to shut the bar down and start helping people out.
“Good evening,” you say in greeting after stepping into Silco’s office.
Silco doesn’t reply. He simply lights his cigar and daces the window, letting his other arm fall limply to the side. He reaches a hand up to brush back his hair.
You drop your bag of coins on the couch as you make your way over to him. Silco, to put it lightly, was out of touch with his emotions. Or rather, he wasn’t sure how to communicate with Powder- Jinx, as she had called herself after the night everything fell apart.
You were Powder and Violet’s older sister- the eldest daughter of Felicia and Connol. The enforcer, the empath, the scapegoat, and the vessel of unconditional love: all in one body. After the explosion that blew up the building, you remember pulling your crushed leg from underneath the rubble. Hobbling down to see Powder weeping over Vander’s body. Violet was nowhere in sight.
“Powder!” You called, limping toward her.
The little blue-haired girl tackled you in a leap and brought you to your ass. You stifled a painful, gutteral scream as your bad leg twisted even further. Powder latched onto you, staining your shirt with her tears. You leaned your head back on the cold, cold pavement and let yourself cry.
The building was still crackling with fire. You didn’t even hear them until you opened your eyes and saw him. Him.
You unsheathed the blade from your belt and pulled yourself as far from him as you could with a lame leg and with Powder mourning in your arms. “Stay away.”
Silco raised his arms to show he was weaponless. “Let me help you, y/n.”
You glared at him sharply. “What do you know about us?” When Silco took a step forward, you waved your knife in the air. He swallowed, but stayed back.
“I know you’ve been taking the blame for your sisters’ actions for your entire life. I know that you are an astounding individual with the capacity to hold your ground,” Silco gestured towards a sniffling Powder. “As well as the the smarts to recognize when you are in a situation where you cannot protect yourself or… her.”
You sneer at him. “You talk pretty, but I’m careless enough to give myself up to give her a chance.”
Silco just tilted his head. “But we know you won’t do that,” he said. “You’ve already imagine the outcome.”
You drop your arm. And when the blade clatters to the ground, so does your facade. The man approaches you, slowly- like he knows you want him to. “Let me help you, y/n.”
His eyes gleam in the light. Like two bright neon signs. Like the ones that light up Vander’s bar. You are caught in his gaze like his prey: right where he wants you. Something stirs in your belly- something unfamiliar and dangerous and… yearning.
Vander scooped you up like Silco did once. Only Violet and Powder had the luxury of being carried around. Vander loved you- that much was true, but you craved the same treatment as your sister instead of being the rational, eldest daughter everyone expected.
But as Silco slid his arms under you and carried you against his chest, you felt the feeling in your gut grow. Powder had fallen asleep against your breasts and you grit your teeth to prevent you from crying out from the pain in your leg. As the lean, muscled man led you further into the night, you looked up to see his bright eyes flicker from your bruised body to the night ahead of you as though he’d been caught.
“What can I do?” You ask him, wrapping your arms around his waist and letting your cheek press to the fabric of his clothes. He relaxes into you slightly, wearily snuffing out his cigar.
He stares out of the window for another long moment. The green illuminated the room, giving him the dramatic flair he loves so much. “I do not know what to say to her.” He turns into you, eyebrows knitted. “I… I feel like the only ome she listens to is you. She- I don’t know how to talk to her. I don’t lnow what to say. She argues so much when all I want,” he looks off, eyes clouding as he thinks of what to say. Your hands cup his face tenderly. “All I want is you. Both of you.”
His guilty whispered admission makes your heart swell. Silco has fumbled over actions and doesn’t quite know what to say to young Jinx, but he means well. “I know, Sil. She’s just… growing up. My baby sister just wants you to trust her. She’ll come back when she’s ready and- and we can all talk, yeah? Powder just needs time to cool down.”
Silco’s eyes search your pink ones. “Your rationale is incredible.”
You smile. “I’m a woman, Silco. I’ve been in her position before.”
“That too,” Silco relents with a tight smile. “How is your leg?”
You shrug. “Not like I can feel it.”
A few weeks after Silco had taken you in, your leg had gotten infected. Desperate to save you, you were taken to Singed. The muscle had a festering infection bad enough to required amputation. Eventually, the blood loss was bad enough that Shimmer was required to stabilize you. All in all, the operation was taxing on all parties involved and had put a damper on Powder’s relationship with Silco because she thought he was the one that infected her.
Silco thought he may have cried with relief when you finally opened your eyes and soothed him with the knowledge that you were okay.
Another week later and you were getting the best prosthetics money could buy, thanks to Silco. Powder had insisted she be by your side every metaphorical and literal step of the way.
These days, your leg ached because of the work you kept yourself busy with. Against Silco’s wishes, of course. You knew he didn’t like when you left. Everyone knew Silco didn’t like when you were just two rooms away from him. He was protective, possessive… He felt love. Stupid, passionate, unexpected love. You knew he loved you and you loved him too.
And with you constantly on your feet doing work you didn’t need to do, Silco worried. Or maybe that was just because he wanted an excuse to see you every moment of every day.
“Hey, let me take care of you for once,” you told him when he arched an eyebrow at you. A laugh spilled from your lips when Silco- as he routinely does- pulls your baggy pants up to your thigh and detaches the prosthetic limb just above your knee. Then, he pulls you into his arms, your familiar weight grounding him and reminding him of why he does what he does: for you and your sister.
Silco scoffs. “You take care of me by simply being around me. Besides, I am quite fond of carrying you to bed.” His tone lightens at the end of his innuendo and his bright eyes flicker to you. “But… if you wanted to repay my overwhelming affection and respect-“
When Silco lies you down on the bed, you waste no time in pulling him harshly onto you by the collar. “-then you know how to be good for me, don’t you, y/n?” Silco purrs out the end of his sentence. He slots his thigh between your legs and dominates your kisses.

Ok, I know we are all excited about the news and all but i feel like i need to give this as a PSA:
Don't be fucking weird.
As a nosy bitch myself, i empathize with the curiosity. I mean, we all wanna know all the deets and all the gossip and such, and I know we have all been waiting for this moment since that Game Changer episode, but, as a reminder, NO INFORMATION ABOUT BRENNAN AND IZZY'S CHILD IS ANY OF Y'ALL'S BUSSINESS.
The babies gender, name, NOTHING. Don't bother them, you are a STRANGER. THEY DON'T KNOW YOU. YOU ARE NOT THEIR FRIENDS OR FAMILY. SHUT UP. The internet is a weird, cursed land and any parent would be wise to not let their infant's image come close to it with a 20 mile pole. Celebrate the news from your place. Be happy for them and for this new stage of their life and ZIP IT.
Anyways, congratulations Brennan and Izzy! Your child won the fucking lottery, you are gonna be amazing parents!
