Just Stiles casually being obsessed with Derek's hands and one night when they're in bed Stiles sleepily runs his finger tips over the back of Derek's hand and fingers. An equally sleepy Derek asked why he was doing that and Stiles doesn't reply with nothing but a mumbled 'beautiful' and casually falls asleep while leaving Derek a blushing confused mess, end tweet :>

YESSSSSS YES YES YES YES TO ALL OF THAT

Sorry if I'm overstepping dear anon but this came out of nowhere so here you have a small snippet??

Stiles has a certain appreciation for Derek's hands. They're big, veiny and bigger than Stiles'. Where he has slender fingers, Derek's are bigger, no callouses on the pads because he's a werewolf and werewolves don't get callouses despite all the hard work Derek does with his hands. His nails are trimmed short, and Stiles knows Derek trims and buffs them every day because they grow back a little every time Derek uses his claws and Derek doesn't like it.

Stiles likes Derek's hands. He likes Derek's fingers, too. He likes them when they're spread across his back, or holding his waist, or grabbing his own hand, or slipping in an out of him when they're having sex. Derek's hands are beautiful, a work of art, really, just like the rest of him. And Stiles loves to hold Derek's hands, loves it when they're walking around town with their fingers laced together, or when they're sitting on the couch and Derek lets Stiles play with his hands. He loves it when they're in bed together and Derek sneaks an arm around him to hold him close and Stiles gets to trace paths on his free hand as he doses off.

"What are you doing?" Derek asks in that infinitely fond voice of his that is reserved only for Stiles. It's clear out, sunlight filtering through the curtains, but they're both on the verge of falling asleep. Stiles is tracing the bones in Derek's hands with his fingertip, touch featherlight as he makes his way across the index finger to the wrist.

"Hmm," Stiles merely hums, not really having a reason for doing this other than he likes it. His mind is numb with sleep, and he doesn't want to stop what he's doing. "Beautiful," he mumbles at last, a suitable explanation. He falls back asleep almost immediately after, hand on top of Derek's as Stiles snuggles deeper into the werewolf's embrace.

A Blue man and a Ghost meet in a church…

((Just an idea as I’m having brainrott))

Danny, with his horrific injuries from being ‘caught’, somehow escapes to his friends before retreating into his core. His friends take his core into the ghost zone, trying to get to Frostbite, but are stopped by (either Fenton parents or GIW agents) flooding into the ghost zone after them.

Tuck and Sam are panicking and so they wrap Danny’s core into Tuck’s beanie and Sam’s jacket before tossing him onto one of the flouting platforms and leading the ghost hunters away…they didn’t expect Danny to be sucked into one of the natural portals along the way down…

Danny wakes up in Germany of all places, alone, with pieces of his best friend’s clothing splayed over him… He takes this with surprising grace (not) and deals with his newfound homelessness in a foreign country as well as he can. At least his King status allows him to be a polyglot…

Meanwhile, Kurt Wagner had returned church that had raised him, planing on pay respects (again) to the Priest that had sheltered him. It wasn’t the same church, as that one has burned down far long ago, but there had been a new church built in its place. This new church had been abandoned soon after its construction, too many people saying that it was haunted with angry ghosts and feeling too anxious to worship within such a building.

Kurt had thought they had been silly, thinking like that and leaving the building to rot. Through, that was before he, himself, had caught sight of a ghost dwelling inside inside. Wait, no. This was still a living child. A boy sat in one of the pews and stared at him with wary curiosity. Through he was so washed out and in such a sorry state that…Well, Kurt believes he could be forgiven for mistaking the boy for the dead.

In the dim morning glow flooding through the stained glass, his eyes reflected and glowed in the shadows. Which was…huh. Seems Kurt has stumbled upon not just a squatter, but a mutant squatter at that.

sonadow trick or treat?????? OwO (happy halloween!!!!)

ahh you caught me i have a few more up my sleeve

[kazoosandfannypacks]

First of all I love the new PFP!!

Second of all I saw you posted about having a theory you're 99 percent sure is true about Enchanted Origins and I REALLY want to know what it is, but no pressure!

(based on my tags on this post)

First of all, thanks! Second, sorry for the delayed response, I made the glorious mistake of hosting a game night the day before easter, so my weekend has been booked, and I had to claw my way through a dozen bot messages to get to this ask 😅

But yes yes yes I have a theory! As I mentioned here, of course, I don't want to know if I'm right, and I don't want to know if I'm wrong, and I don't want to influence the ideas you already have for these characters and their stories. However, I have thought this since I first started reading, and I must share:

Rapunzel is Liam's mother.

Now, as you know first-hand (and your so-called twin knows equally as well 😉) I'm not one to come up with a conspiracy without reason— I have to have several tiny hints that I read into and manipulate without precedent. This is no exception. Every time I read back to look for evidence, I become more and more convinced that, hey, this isn't some insane grasping at straws, this actually makes sense and when you read the text through that lens it's glaringly obvious.

We first hear mention of Rapunzel all the way back in chapter two:

Liam paused a strange look passing over his face. It wasn't just discomfort, there was something else that I couldn't quite read. "According to the letter I received from your aunt, your parents had something to do with... Rapunzel."

Listen, I know Liam is a character with anxiety. I know he probably hesitates a lot when he talks. (No, he definitely does.) But I think this one's very intentionally written.

And when Rebecca is like "oh, maybe Rapunzel's my mom!" he's quick to dispell it:

Liam's eyes widened as I rushed to explain... the hope swelling within my chest faded and Liam shook his head, wearing a frown. "No, she's not your aunt, and I don't think she's your mother, either... Trust me." Liam's voice held an unexpected edge, and I blinked in surprise. He seemed to realize it, and looked away. "You're looking in the wrong place."

I, of course, didn't suspect anything of all of this until later. While Liam, of course, keeps many secrets, he's not usually quick to write off Rebecca's theories about fairytale characters without a solid explanation of why her thoughts are impractical in this world.

Then, we get to chapter five. Rebecca brings up yet again her theory that Rapunzel is her mother, and Liam shoots it down once again.

Liam shook his head. "She couldn't be your mother, Rebecca."

"So you claim," I muttered. "We could be related somehow. I could be her niece or something."

"Pretty sure you're not."

This was about the moment that it clicked for me that hey, wait a minute. Liam seems very certain that Rebecca's mom is not Rapunzel. He's almost defensive about it. How does he know? How does he know so much about Rapunzel's family tree? Wait a minute!

Lowkey, though, I brushed this aside, because that's crazy? We know who Liam's dad is, and I'm pretty sure it's not Rapunzel's husband? I don't claim to be an expert on the author, but she wouldn't have Rapunzel cheat on her husband, right? But a couple weeks ago, I realized the text never actually says that Rapunzel was married to Alec at the time Liam was born, right? So, I went back and reread the part where Liam mentions Rapunzel's prince in chapter two, and the wording sounds even more... suspicious.

"But then when I was a kid, Rapunzel and her... her husband, Prince Alec, they rebelled against Goldilocks."

Not only that, he goes on to say later in that chapter:

"She and Prince Alec never had any children."

Now, I'm no expert forest tracker guy, but if I were trying to convince someone that their mom isn't a leader of a covert resistance, I wouldn't leave room for interpretation. Rapunzel never had any kids. That's all it takes. That's all you've got to say to make it not even a possibility anymore. But that's not what Liam said. There's a very important contraction there, and Liam didn't need to inculde it unless it was the only way to tell the truth without telling too much of it.

This also adds a little onto Liam's character and motivation. Liam wants to help Rebecca, not just because he's been sent to do this, but because no one has seen Rapunzel, his mother, since he was a child. He probably hasn't seen her either. But suddenly he gets a letter from someone who says "hey, you need to help your long lost mother's colleague's daughter" (I also think, if I may add, that pointing out her parents' connection to Rapunzel would be an unusual, unnecessary, and dangerous thing to mention, except if it had a personal connection to Liam,) and he realizes there's a chance to uncover some secrets about her. Find her. Learn the pieces of her story that he's been missing.

Anyways, that's all I have right now for the Liam is Rapunzel's Son conspiracy! Of course, you don't need to respond at all, but if anyone else has anything they want to throw on the conspiracy pile, feel free to contribute!

When is the next chapter of your Sonamy fanfic?

Hai!! 🥹💙🩷

HOPEFULLY within a month! The next chapter is already started and I have an outline for everything that happens in it. I've just been dealing with the consequences of procrastinating a bunch of assignments and have been drowning in an unholy amount of paperwork stuff to do as I approach graduation in a couple weeks. BUT I'm hoping to get it done and out as quickly as possible! There's just a LOT happening in this one 🥹

I'm excited to get it out there though! 💥💙🩷

Thank you for asking! It helps keep me motivated for it 😁🥰

I was reading the Orphic Argonautica last night and the author has mentioned the various methods of divination Apollo knows and guess what? One of them is prophesying by studying the entrails of organisms. As soon as I read that I was reminded of your headcanon of Apollo being into hepatoscopy for divination and I giggled.

Awww 😳😳It's so nice of you to think of me!

Hehe, so fun fact, the overall practice of divination by studying the entrails of animals (including blood, lungs, intestines and so forth) is extispicy while hepatoscopy is specifically using the liver in prophecy and divination readings.

If, like magic in old text exactly like the sort Medea is described as using, the types of divination spoken about in the texts are reflections of the popular divination cultures of the time, I much rather prefer ascribing those to Apollo than I do some vague, somewhat mysterious power which he uses to see the will of the fates, especially since it's mentioned a few times that he'll teach his sons the language of the birds and how to read their signs and so on and so forth.

In short: HEPATOSCOPY APOLLO IS COOL!! HE'S SO NEAT!! Apollo at the altar who predicts the coming droughts and famines from the entrails of his flock!! It's just such a neat little image (to me)!

Also the Orphic Argonautica bangs, genuinely I hope you enjoy it! Orpheus is an insane man and I do not think him along with the collective subspecies of mythical man known as 'sons of Apollo' get enough credit for how truly unhinged they are at any given point in time.

1 and 4 for the reading asks!

Rant to me about a book you absolutely hate

Every time The Enchanted April is mentioned, I hate it more. These pointless people with their pointless lives go to Italy and do nothing and it somehow makes everything better! It is not a happy ending for your husband to show up intending to have an affair with one of your friends, only to decide that now you're hot enough that he can stand being with you! Why is this touted as feel-good story??

4. What book do you think it should be a requirement for you to be a consultant for if it was to be adapted into a play or movie or something?

Ella Enchanted. We need to preserve the correct atmosphere and the worldbuilding and we need to do justice to the ending.

[robertphilip]

thinking about Robert’s first marriage, specifically his first experience having a child, and how his wife just did Not Care about anything.

I headcanon that she was basically tuned out her entire pregnancy with Morgan, so she didn’t tell Robert she kicked, which meant he wasn’t aware she was moving around yet. he doesn’t feel anything until days, maybe even weeks, later, and he’s ecstatic because !! their baby moved !!! but again, his ex wife just didn’t care, so she casually says “yeah, she’s done that a few times. it’s a bit annoying, honestly” and Robert’s just ????? because why didn’t she tell him !!!! she shrugs it off like it’s not big deal, that she just forgot, and he doesn’t quite believe her but he accepts the response, doesn’t push her, and focuses on Morgan because he’s so happy to finally really interact with his little one.

when it came to Morgan’s name, his wife told him to pick — made up some excuse that she was terrible at things like this. he finds the name ‘Morgan’ in one of his textbooks, and really loves it, and his wife just nods, and smiles, because again, she just does Not Care.

when Morgan is old enough to really smile, he’s over the moon about it — he runs into the living room to show his wife and she just nods, barely acknowledging them. he tries to ask what’s bothering her, tries desperately to figure out what’s wrong, but she shrugs him off, and refuses to talk about it. he sighs, once again accepting her response, not wanting to push her, and focuses on Morgan.

flash forward several years, now Giselle is pregnant, and the experience is so, so different. she asks if he thinks she’s showing yet nearly every day, and can’t stop talking to their little one. when she feels Sofia kick for the first time, she’s so overjoyed she starts crying, and when she sees Robert just a few minutes later, he can barely ask if she’s okay before she’s shouting “our baby moved!!!!!!!!” and she spends days, and days taking his hands, and putting them on her belly, begging Sofia to kick for him just once, please.

with Sofia’s name, Robert’s heart nearly bursts because Giselle was already creating a list of ones she liked just seconds after learning she was pregnant. they’d spend hours going back and forth, trying to find the perfect name, but it wasn’t until Morgan suggested “Sofia” that they finally found the perfect name.

when Sofia is old enough to really smile for the first time, Robert’s in a meeting, but that doesn’t stop Giselle from immediately calling him. she talks his ear off, excitedly going on and on about how, “she smiled!!!! she really smiled!!!!! oh, it looks just like your smile, Robert!!!” and he’s standing in the hallway, listening with a big grin on his face, his chest bursting. and when he gets home later, they both spend hours trying to make Sofia smile because !!!!! she’s finally smiling!!!!!!!

the experiences are just so, so different and when I think about it for too long, I start screaming, crying, and throwing up.

[kwawiichan]

Unpopular opinion: a lot of Imogen's charactarization doesn't make sense to me considering the context of Exandria. Why would people act like Imogen talking in their heads is something fantastical when is an ability that many people have and no one ever thought it was weird during the other campaigns (so u imagine is even a bit common). It's kinda like when people try to bring homophobia into CR when, in the conext of the worldbuilding, doesn't make sense

I actually disagree on this one! Sending usually requires you know the person and is very limited in how much you can say, and we did see people react negatively to Jester; but also she frequently messaged fairly high-level mages. (FCG has also gotten some negative responses from people who were unlikely to regularly get Sending).

Telepathy like what Imogen has, as something free and unlimited? That's actually quite rare, and more importantly, it's really rare if you are a random mundane shopkeeper. Like, it actually does make complete sense to me that Percy, despite being an important person who probably receives Sendings from Allura and Pike with some regularity, is unnerved by Imogen just talking telepathically. Frankly it is also weird how much she just...does it to people for no reason. Like, Sending and Message and Rary's Telepathic Bond are typically at a distance, and Imogen will just randomly start talking to people mentally mid-sentence for non-secret statements simply because she can. Even if you're used to telepathic conversation it's going to make people wonder what she's up to.

I love your artwork. Have you ever drawn Belle in her Enchanted Christmas red dress in your style?

I haven't! It's a great dress. I should add it to the list XD. I don't think I've done many of the sequel-movies... but Enchanted Christmas is a fun one.

How did I miss last night's update ughhh , I screamed when I saw that you released the first chapter of em3 !!! And let me tell you , you did not disappoint , I love the way you showed the friendship between all the girls I love how you show the friendship between Stella and aisha and tecna because we don't see much of it in the show , but like it's the first chapter and radius and luna are already fighting they can't let poor stella breathe even before her princess ball and I love luna but no matter your problems with your ex that is not a reason to disregard one of the biggest days of your daughter's life especially not when her friends , boyfriend and entire kingdom are going to be present and ask why you are not here with your daughter on this big day . Chimera is such a liar and a hypocrite what do you mean "I did not engage" ???? , you call stealing her pizza , fighting with her over a dress not engaging !!?? but frankly her mother is worse than her , how dare you traumatize me like that!!! I had the biggest jumpscare of my life "Cassandra had been extra generous with Radius that night" when I tell you I gasped , I screamed my jaw was on the floor , that woman looks like a mummy from ancient Egypt,looking at her makes me wanna vomit 🤮, how can you go from luna to THAT the downgrade , on another note I wonder just how and when they met valtor ? since in the show they met valtor right before stella's ball .

Anyway that chapter was fire and I can't wait to see what what you have in store next.

you always leave the longest comments, I love you so much!!!

first, thank you for your support. it makes my heart melt <3

I love exploring the different dynamics the girls have built. they are all so different it's a challenge every time!

Radius and Luna can be worse than toddlers fighting over toys when they want to be. Will Luna attend the ball? Only time will tell.

Chimera is the worst, but she didn't lie. I decided to ignore that whole part with the pizza and the clothes because I didn't really like it, so they will meet for the first time at the ball. (Poor Stella)

CASSANDRA IS THE WORST. No redemption arc for her. Not from me.

next chapter starts with a (FOUR PAGES) flashback that will tell you all about Cassandra/Radius/Chimera/Valtor

love youuuuuuu

What’s your favorite song? :3

"Honestly, I can't exactly decide on a favourite. However, I suppose I have been listening to Enchanted a lot more lately..."

"Don't jude me."
