#ever thus

[wrapped-up]

The door to the bathroom slammed open, making Remus jump out of his skin and the bath water slosh over the side of the bath. Paddy whined at him, tail wagging like crazy and sniffing at the bath-bound Remus in curiosity. He was briefly concerned that he was going to leap right into the bath with him, but was left with a different problem when the dog abruptly left, leaving the door wide open, and a very naked Remus on the opposite side of the room to his towel.

I didn't have a dog at the time of writing this. I now have a dog and can confirm that it's very accurate indeed.

“If a day doesn’t have you in it, it isn’t a good day”

Ever Thus, by WrappedUp. One of my first Muggle AUs that got me in a chokehold and led me to this irreparable obsession. Does this scene live in my head rent free on a constant loop? Yes. Do I have too many feelings about it and nowhere to put them so I’m here screaming into the void? Absofuckinglutely 🫶🏽

New parent Bruce at two in the morning: Why aren’t you in bed?

9-year-old Dick, sitting at the table eating ice cream: Because I’m in the kitchen.

Bruce tiredly, digging out some coffee: And why are you in the kitchen?

Dick: Because it’s where the ice cream is.

This is very much 'Ever Thus' wolfstar, except they're in their twenties <3

do you know how tortured james potter was when sirius revealed he liked remus. do you? he finally had his hands on the juiciest, highly coveted piece of gossip he’s ever heard and he had to keep it to himself. james ‘biggest mouth do not trust with your secrets because he will accidentally let it slip’ potter had to be quiet for YEARS. and he kept that secret so good because sirius would have lost trust in him otherwise and he would rather die than let that happen. but that man was STRESSED. years of stress. and then remus came to him with his feelings for sirius and that man almost pulled his hair out because how do you tell remus to go for it TRUSSST ME. GO FOR IT MOONY without spilling the beans. james potter started suffering from heartburn at the age of 16 because his two best friends are idiots

Bingqiu AU where Luo Binghe's the chosen village sacrifice to the evil deity who lives up the mountain.

Normally the village sends maidens, but they've more or less run out of expendable girls of the right age and, ahem, "virtues". So of course Luo Binghe's early life bad luck kicks in. In the wake of his mother's death there's no one to really care about what happens to him, he's fairly pretty, and the village leaders decide that if they dress him up like a girl the teenaged homeless kid should pass well enough. And hey, y'know, he's probably got a hard life ahead for him anyway -- dying in a brothel of some venereal disease or on the streets of exposure or starvation. At least as a sacrifice, everyone else gets to benefit from his loss! And the kid will get added to a shrine and be remembered as a hero! If anything, he should be happy about this!

Binghe is not happy about this.

But he's also a skinny underfed nobody who is easily overpowered, dressed up like a bride, and tied to a post. So. Not much he can do but wait for the evil deity to come and do whatever horrible thing he's gonna do to him.

Meanwhile, Shen Yuan is pretty sure he's been isekai'd into the over-powered hero of some kind of supernatural adventure story? He's not totally sure because he doesn't recognize the setting, but the signs are there. He's got a shrine-like base of operations (though it seems to have become corrupted/ruined, probably he has to restore it somehow), he has a very resilient and handsome new body with spiritual energy of some kind flowing through him, and a very clearly magical sword. Plus lots of neat starter powers! Though it feels like he has other abilities that have been blocked somehow? Probably he has to level up in order to access them.

When he treks out of his "base" and finds what seems to be a distressed maiden, he takes it for his beginner hero mission. The girl claims that she's been doomed to be sacrificed to an evil god. That sounds a little above Shen Yuan's pay grade for dealing with, so he unties her and decides that they had better just get out of the whole region altogether. He already packed up anything useful from his base, anticipating he might get caught up in an adventure once he left, so they follow the river away from the settlement until they reach another one.

While they travel, Luo Binghe tells Shen Yuan about the cursed deity, Shen Qingqiu, who was cast out of the heavens for slaughtering one of his brethren and has apparently being do-who-knows what to maidens from the local village in exchange for his "protection" ever since. Sounds like a real asshole! And also mid-level boss type bad guy at least. Shen Yuan hopes he doesn't have to fight him, but he probably will.

Thank goodness he found Binghe, though! Clearly the helpful little sister type! He's definitely going to require her assistance if he's going to figure out how to navigate this world and level up his skills enough to take on a god.

The way you draw Huzzle Mug so expressive is great. I love when you draw it using its hands very expressively and being quite emotional <3

Thank you! I very much Love drawing and pushing expressions for Huzzle Mug! It is a fun design to play with expressions wise since in game it is already super expressive :) I very much see Huzzle mug as a side on the same coin as Bauhauzzo- easily lost in its own emotions and lets them potentially dictate it's actions- after all it believed Bauhauzzo actually willingly betrayed it and no longer was its friend in game after his "BETRAEULTRY!!" . They both rely heavily on the other god to ground them emotionally and function without getting lost in the waves of their emotions.

Bauhauzzo calms Huzzle when it gets worked up, and Huzzle brightens Bauhauzzo up so he doesn't lose himself in the past and can look to the future.

Gimme Nikto who just lets you do whatever. grab his big head like a stress ball and shake him around a lil. Patient like a big burly dog getting prodded by a kitten.

Grab his mean burly shoulders and squeeze his arms. Scratch them, hug them, draw little shapes on them with your fingertips. He melts. Blinks contently as if he had let all thoughts go.

"grabby little one". He'll grunt, bristling under the drag of your nails across his Adams apple. Your smile is sweet- so sweet he can taste it. Like jam and sugar and honey.

He nudges a few thick fingers beneath your chin, tickling softly at your neck- enough to make you squeal joyfully, but not enough to make you squirm.

"hey, you like it". You'll chide softly, and he doesn't disagree or argue. Simply guides and nudges your hand to slip into the loop of his belt to hold as he squeezes you into his big arms, nestling you against his sturdy hard chest and gathering you close. So close you can hear his heart thumping against your ear.

"we do".
