Ad-Live 2022 [Night Session] - Chiba
Premise:  Producer named Jin (Shimazaki) is tasked with ensuring the success of live advertisements, but doesn't have the data to do so.  Blade (Enoki) is a man with a cursed “disease”, whereby his genitals have morphed into a sword. He’s looking for way to cure himself, to get back to his wife ‘Saya’.   Aramaton (Aramaki) is a man dressed in a sheep plush hoodie, who keeps asking if people “remember him”. His intentions are unclear.  Suzumura is the higher-up who checks on them.  Jin must enlist in the help of these two to achieve at least 30% viewership in the advertisement broadcasts, in order to keep the studio in money for making Jin’s favourite anime show about “Magical Galaxy Girl Desuko”, and to prevent the "higher-ups" from killing them.
Official preview video [here]   / Day Session [here]
Some Funny parts & Ending below cut! 
[ KEYS:  E = Enoki Junya / N = Shimazaki Nobunaga / M = Aramaki Yoshihiko (or Mackey) / S = Suzumura Kenichi ]
---- ---- ---- 
M: your name is Omata Blade? (stares intently) 
N: Oi why are you making fun of people's names? 
E: What about you, dressed like that?
M: I was doing nothing outside the studio when I was brought in as an extra. 
E: That's not a costume anyone loiters in... ---- ---- ---- 
(every time E sheathes/unsheathes his “sword”)
N: That's such a good sound! 
---- ---- ---- 
S: (squints at M, E) Actually, what's wrong with you two? 
E: (ad-lib cue) Just as you would imagine. 
S: NEVER IN MY LIFE COULD I IMAGINE SOMETHING LIKE THIS! ESPECIALLY YOU! 
---- ---- ---- 
M: (takes giant spoon prop between legs to match E's "disease") Now that we match, we look like a unit don't we? 
E: (touched) I'm so happy! This is the first time I feel understood! 
(hug and accidentally poke each other with “swords”) 
---- ---- ---- 
S: (tries to style them)
E: Oh lemme try this on. (puts coat over sword) 
(everyone piles on coats excessively to hide E's sword) 
E: No stop! My identity is being erased! 
---- ---- ---- 
(advertising products, E and M have sword fight with their respective *ahem* props)
E: These amazing products can even make music! 
S: (frantic whispering from sidelines, RIP head producer) STOP STOP STOP!
---- ---- ---- 
N: We have to attain 30% viewership to save Desuko's show! 
M, E: Who's Desuko? 
S: (rushes to them) No no no no no! 
N: (simp mode activated) DESUKO IS THE BEST MAGICAL SPACE GALAXY GIRL IN THE UNIVERSE, HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW?! 
---- ---- ---- 
Just E jabbing at everything with his sword -- including N's face on a poster 
---- ---- ---- 
(Advertisement viewership = 5%)
M: Well, this is kinda mine and E's fault...
E: Yes, we're very sorry for the trouble we've caused.
M: In fact, N did an excellent job portraying the magical girl character!
S: (bursts in) WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? 5% ONLY?!!! 
M,E: (points to blame N immediately) It's this guy's fault!
---- ---- ---- 
M: (threatening) I’m looking for the person who ate my dear friend Aramaton. 
E: Aren't you "Aramaton"? 
M: No, that's the name of my pet sheep.
E:??????
---- ---- ---- 
N: (enthusing about job) What exactly is  “entertainment”? 
E: It's hurting people for amusement and fun isn't it?  [*Enoki PLS]
---- ---- ---- 
M: (threateningly, holding out picture) Do you recognise this sheep? N: No… E: (stage whispers, innocently) It’s the delicious one!
M: OI. YOU BASTARD. 
---- ---- ---- 
M: (takes out gun for revenge and starts shooting at feet) 
S: (jumping so much for his age) WHY ARE THERE UNLIMITED BULLETS? 
---- ---- ---- 
M: Revenge on N for eating Aramaton is mine! 
E: No, revenge on N for causing this disease is mine! 
M: You think you can dodge my *tama (= bullets) ? 
E: (dramatically unsheathes) I may not have any *tama (= balls) left, but I'll definitely slice yours! 
(Fight like children as the audience laughs wildly)
S: Okay this is actually impressive… Quick! (smacks N) We’ve gotta film this! (starts recording on phone) 
---- ---- ---- 
(audience laughing very loudly, echoing sounds)
M: Goodness, what was that? 
N: It's probably the voice of the universe!
---- ---- ---- 
N: What happened to Aramaton? 
M: (ad-lib cue) Aramaton didn’t pay his rent! Now all my money is gone! N: You’re not avenging Aramaton for love, but for money?! 
---- ---- ---- 
E: I’m going to the toilet. 
M: Eh? How’d you go with (points) that?
E: (accidentally bangs sword against door, monotonous) Ah. N: Isn’t that supposed to be painful???
---- ---- ---- 
N: (during after talk, praises staff for drawing a wonderful poster for the imaginary “Desuko” anime he mentioned) 
M: (praises staff for preparing the props, esp the list of people he killed for revenge and the pot) 
S: The staff are amazing at their preparation, thank you everyone. But what’s most shocking is that (E’s sword)! He even brought it from home! 
---- ---- ---- 
Ending: (The last 10 minutes were honestly so chaotic; they nearly missed the threads of their stories, but made it back in time.) The "higher-ups" are an actual superior alien race, monitoring the humans via TV broadcasting. If the broadcast fails, it proves humanity isn't worth it, and everyone will be killed. Jin is actually an alien who loves anime, and doesn't want to see humanity be destroyed. That's why he's so intent on making TV studios a success. Aramaton is actually the name of Mackey's character's pet sheep. To avenge the death of Aramaton, Mackey kills a list of people who presumable ate Aramaton at a restaurant. But, Jin confesses he recognised Aramaton because the sheep wasn't eaten–it was Jin who abducted Aramaton for an alien experiment. Aramaton is still alive. Blade is not blade. "Saya" is not his wife. Blade IS Saya. Mackey unknowingly killed Saya before this event, and Saya was so revengeful that her soul was absorbed into a male alien vessel. The sword as a disease was also fake. Her main aim is to kill Mackey. Jin is forced to finish the final broadcast, in which he pleads for everyone to forget their grievances and forgive each other, so everyone can move forward. All the characters are moved. Final push comes from a phone call for Blade/Saya: Let all aliens and humans live in peace together.

Dating Roronoa Zoro would include (liveaction!Zoro x female!reader headcanons)
Tumblr media
Tw: slight cursing, a bit suggestive towards the end, mentions of sword fighting
A/n: okay so i decided to give it a try myself lol this is completely based off the live action (i haven't watched the anime nor read the manga). I hope you like it, i'm so in love with our green haired baby 🥰 also forgive me for any mistakes, english is not my first language 🙏🏻
• First things first,we gotta make it clear: Zoro acts tough and all but deep down he is a big softie akslajskak
• The thing is, because of his past, he isn't very used to being treated kindly
• So when he found you it was like his world completely changed
• He cherished every little act of care you did for him
• He loooved when you ran your fingers through his hair
• He would close his eyes and enjoy it with a small smile on his lips
• Or when you caressed the back of his neck when you kissed him
• It drove him crazyyy
• He loved these little delicate touches that made his heart do a backflip
• And how about when you grabbed his face, looked deep into his eyes and kissed the tip of his nose?
• Boy would blush like hell
• "You're so cute when you blush" - you'd tease him with another kiss on the cheek
• "No, i'm not" - he said frowning and trying to brush that off, which only made you giggle and kiss him again
• You would always make sure to let him know how much you loved him
• And even though he wasn't the best in expressing his feelings, you could feel how grateful he was for that
• He would always look at you with the most passionate eyes and that's when you knew he loved you just as much
• And he would show it too
• Hell he would do anything for you
• Once he made Sanji prepare a whole feast for you (with him helping ajdkajskaj) because you accidentally let slip you missed food from home
• Or that time he secretly bought you a cute bracelet he saw you staring at when you stopped by at a village
• That's how much he loved you and wanted to make you happy
• And the straw hats would always tease you guys about it
• Except poor Luffy who didn't understand anything that was going on lol
• But he saw how happy you both were and, if his crew was happy, he was happy too
• Now Zoro wasn't much of PDA
• But he made sure to show everyone you belonged to each other
• He would usually put his arm around your waist or around your shoulders
• (When he did the latter one, you liked to intertwine your fingers with his which he thought was super cute ajskajskja)
• You on the other hand liked to hook your arm with his when he had his hand in his pocket
• Let's be honest you loved feeling the strong muscles of his arms
• Yeah, his physique was something you admired a lot
• You loved to watch him practice his sword fighting
• The way his strong arms moved
• That pretty face he did when he was concentrated
• The way his fingers moved on the sword
• Him all sweaty...
• okay let's stop over there
• He noticed you watching and one day he had a brilliant idea (or so he thought)
• You were a very skilled fighter, but you had never tried fighting with a weapon
• So he decided to teach you how to fight with his swords
• Ngl it was tough
• But you were very decided to try your best
• But actually the best part turned out to be being extra close to him
• "Hey, you have to position your arms like this" - he said as he gently lift your arms with a touch so soft it gave you butterflies
• He stood behind you as he helped you correctly hold the sword, putting his hands in yours (yeah like a big cliche move lol)
• He was so close you could feel his breath on the back of your neck
• Which only made you even more distracted and had you get the move wrong again
• "Zoro, love, let's be honest, i can't do it. You are the greatest swordsman i know and i'll never be any close to that, so let's just give up" - you said, frustrated
• "What? No. (Y/N), you are the most determined and dedicated person i've ever known and i'm sure you can do anything you want" - he said, holding your hand and looking at you lovingly - "just... try it one more time. For me?" - he said with puppy eyes and you couldn't say no to the man you loved so much
• You grabbed the sword again and to your surprised you nailed the movement
• "I did it! Oh my gosh, Zoro, i did it!" - you said smiling from ear to ear
• He was as surprised and happy as you, with that pretty smile he didn't show often but that you loved so much
• He grabbed you and spun you around as you both laughed
• "I knew you could do it" - he said as he put you on the ground again - "i'm so proud of my girl" - he kissed your cheek
• And now it was your time to blush as he ruffled your hair
• (Needless to say, Usopp and Sanji were watching the whole thing and started making fun of you two, which only made you blush even harder lmaooo)
• Okay so we all know and love his deep voice, right?
• Now imagine his morning voice 💀
• After spending a ahem very good night together you'd wake up next to each other in the morning
• "Morning, Zoro" - you'd say still sleepy
• "Morning, babe. D'you sleep well?" - he asked in that deep, raspy voice that gave you all the butterflies
• Damnnnn
• You'd get weak in the knees all over again lmao
• And that could lead to something else 👀
• But that's a whole another story ajdkajskaj
• And speaking of his voice
• He wasn't much of talking, but he slowly started opening up to you
• Sharing his thoughts, fears and stories from his past
• You saw through him and broke down his walls, so he felt 100% comfortable around you
• You'd lay down together and talk about everything
• That was such a special and intimate moment for you
• You loved being there with him, taking in his scent and listening to his voice while he traced circles down your back
• He would tell you stories about Kuina and the promise he made
• You swear you had never seen him that vulnerable
• But you were glad he felt safe enough to share that with you
• In the end you just hugged and reassured him
• "I know you will keep your promise, and i'll be here supporting you until the end" - you said, gently cupping his cheek
• "Thank you, (Y/N)" - he said softly, and you could see the warmth in his eyes - "now i have another reason to believe i can make it"
• "What is it?" - you asked, a bit confused
• "Having you by my side" - he said in his low voice, laying down and closing his eyes
• Your heart fluttered at that 😭
• "It's my pleasure, Roronoa Zoro" - you said smiling and cuddling him as you both fell asleep <3

Hi!!! Sorry if you've been asked this before but is it possible for you to summarize the Bonus Links' personalities? Just asking because I'd like to get a general idea, apologies if this is too much of a pain to answer 😭🫶🏻
hey! luckily I already wrote up character intros a while back that I never posted to tumblr lol, so I'll go ahead and post them now! under the cut since this is mega long lol
Loft
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Skyward Sword
Age: 22
Height: 5’3”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: World’s Nicest Man Pushed To His Limit. It’s his nature to be light-hearted and easy-going, but ever since the events of Skyward Sword he’s been unable to let the implications of Demise’s curse and Zelda’s connection to Hylia go. He’s usually mild, but he’s got a lot of suppressed anger in him that comes out at inopportune times. He tends towards being optimistic, but has lately been caught in a depressive spiral. As a result of all these conflicting emotions, he hasn’t felt like himself in a while. Before everything, he could have been described as a little bit lazy, but these days a better word would be lethargic. He’s got a mischievous and thrill-seeking streak that often surprises people. He knows he’s powerful, but he’s lost some confidence in the years since his quest. He’s wracked with guilt about the way everything ended.
Slate
Pronouns: tends to use he/him, but really any
Game: Breath of the Wild (ignoring TotK for now)
Age: 21
Height: 5’0”
Communication: Mainly signs, speaks occasionally
Personality: The Reviews Are In: Friendly Guy, Vaguely Off-Putting. He knows he’s not pre-calamity Link, but he’s not exactly sure what he is instead. He’s accepted this about himself, and it grinds his gears that other people refuse to. He’s not sure what to do with all these memories inside him that aren’t his, and that he feels nothing for. He’s become more expressive, but when he’s upset his face goes entirely blank. He has a tendency to be distracted, blunt, intense, impulsive, somewhat abrasive. But he’s not unkind, and can even be outright friendly. He’d offer his help to anyone who asks, and he makes it a point to know everyone in Hyrule. He’s happiest out in nature, and doesn’t mind the solitude. He only ever lies by omission, and otherwise says exactly what he means. There’s something a little otherworldly about him.
Mask
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask
Age: 15
Height: 5’2½”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: Local Teen Needs Hug So Bad, Will Bite If You Try. He’s prickly, hot-tempered, moody. He’ll pick verbal battles he probably shouldn’t. Everything is a touchy subject. But he’s developed this behavior as a coping mechanism. He’s kind by nature, and it takes effort to lash out. The person he is with Malon- gentle, more soft-spoken, with a good sense of humor and a love for harmless mischief- is a lot closer to the person he’s comfortable being. He’s a scared kid. He feels out of place, both mature and immature, of this world and not. Sometimes, he gets scrambled between Termina, the Hyrule he’s in now, the Hyrule he left behind, and the Hyrule of the war. He has a lot of resentment for both the gods and the royal family, and all he wants is to be left alone.
Wolf
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Twilight Princess
Age: 23
Height: 5’5”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: Thank God I’m A Country Boy. He’s a gentle soul, probably the gentlest out of all of them. He likes to be useful, and he has made being the problem solver of Ordon Village part of his identity. He’s a bit of a mother hen and likes to take care of people. Midna was good at bringing out a little bit of attitude and snark in him. He’s got a bad case of Resting Bitch Face, but he’s not an angry person. However, he’s had a hard time adjusting to life back in Ordon. He’s usually even-tempered, but lately he’s been irritable and easier to anger. He feels isolated by his experiences, and has been avoiding most of the villagers, including his loved ones, even though it makes him lonely. Mostly he just doesn’t want to take it out on them, but it’s also about his pride. He enjoys the company of animals far more these days. He wants a quiet life, and has been avoiding Zelda's attempts to make "Hero" a political role for him to fill.
War
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Hyrule Warriors
Age: 25
Height: 5’7”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally, had Proxi speak for him at one point during the war
Personality: Link “This Is My Jaeger, I Make The Tactical Decisions” Faron. He comes across as a very charming young man, witty, helpful, pleasant in conversation, well-adjusted. In reality, he is constantly doing complicated political 4D chess in his mind at all times, even when it’s not necessary. Many years of being subject to the whims of the Royal Court and pressure to be a perfect symbol have poisoned him: he’s become calculating, manipulative, superficially polite, two-faced. He has to be the one holding all the cards, considering all the variables, fixing all of the problems, because he can’t trust anyone else. If you were to strip him of all pretense, he'd actually be a dry, resigned person, perpetually annoyed with everyone around him. He values status and reputation, and he wants more power than he has. His appearance is important to him because he knows his pretty face is an asset. He holds deep respect for the gods and the mantle of the hero. He has a strong sense of duty, but one that often leads him to justify terrible actions. The ends justify the means.
Mirror
Pronouns: he/they
Game: A Link Between Worlds, Triforce Heroes
Age: 22
Height: 5’1”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: Local Link Doing Pretty Well Actually, All Things Considered. He’s just living his life, having a mostly pleasant time. He used to be quiet and reserved when he was younger, but has come out of his shell in a big way. He’s a bit vain, and fond of doing things with a dramatic flair. They like to have an audience, they like to make people laugh, they like to have your attention. Rather than being poisoned by court politics, he thrives in them. He doesn’t pretend to be charming, he just is. They can be on the arrogant side. He’s interested in fashion and art more than fighting these days, but still keeps his skills up to date. He pretends the scar on his face doesn’t bother him, but it does. He’s particularly obsessed with the legend of the hero before him.
Mage
Pronouns: he/him
Game: A Link to the Past, Link’s Awakening, Oracle of Ages, Oracle of Seasons
Age: 32
Height: 5’3”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: Weird Uncle You Just Stopped Hearing From One Day. He’s a difficult guy to get a read on. He comes off as deeply serious, imposing, no-nonsense. He is actually full of nonsense. The fact that no one can tell what is and isn’t part of the bit is part of the bit. He mostly ignores his own problems by dedicating his life to solving other people’s problems. He wanders from place to place, helping people and becoming a bit of a larger than life folk legend in his own right in the process. He’s leaned into learning magic more than the sword, and has built up quite the arsenal of spells. He doesn’t speak often, and is content to let other Links lead despite being the oldest and the most experienced. He’s difficult to rile and even more difficult to get a straight answer out of.
Spirit
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Spirit Tracks
Age: 17
Height: 4’11”
Communication: Mainly signs, speaks occasionally. He has a stutter when he speaks.
Personality: Wants To Be Anywhere But Here, Preferably On A Train. He’s fully given up swordfighting, and basically just wants to go back to being a Royal Engineer like nothing happened. He has no interest in gaining any kind of attention, authority, or power from the mantle of the hero, and would actually prefer that everyone stop looking at him. He’s quiet, sweet-natured and generally non-confrontational, but he’s not afraid to stand up for himself when pushed. It’s just that it’s easier to let Zelda stand up for him instead. He’s pretty mature and in-tune with his emotions for a 17 year old. Seeing spirits everywhere, he has a lot of private thoughts about grief and death that he doesn’t share with anyone. The gears in his brain are constantly turning, and once he’s stuck on an idea, it’s all he can focus on. He often doesn’t give himself enough credit for how capable he is. Please let him tell you about trains.
Mini
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Minish Cap
Age: 14
Height: 4’3”
Communication: Only signs, mute.
Personality: He’s Just A Little Guy, Only 2 Pixels Tall. Mini doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to do. He’s not very expressive in the face, and it can be hard to tell what he’s thinking or feeling. Mostly, he’s a little rascal. He likes to root around in the garbage and build strange little machines from what he finds. He spends a lot of time hanging out with the Minish, moreso than humans. It’s a little bit of an escapism thing. He hasn’t really processed what it meant to become the hero so young, and is actively trying to avoid doing so. He’s very independent, and simply doesn’t compute attempts to coddle him.
Wake
Pronouns: he/him
Game: Wind Waker, Phantom hourglass
Age: 20
Height: 5’5”
Communication: Mainly speaks, signs occasionally
Personality: Everyone’s Favorite Cousin At The Family Function. He’s a fun person to be around. Friendly, energetic, laid back, good-natured, outgoing. He is always up for a good shenanigan. But he can get serious when he needs to, and often plays the important role of mediator in group dynamics. He’s the glue that holds the team together! He seems to take everything in stride, and presents himself as unbothered by the things that have happened to him. Whether that’s actually true, or he’s just compartmentalized everything too well remains to be seen. He has a strange way of being very open, and yet a closed book at the same time. He’s sentimental, and family is important to him

Could you please do Izzy with pirate reader who loves to draw? (Not like Lucius just drawing landscaped and non naked people lol)
Summary: Izzy has liked reader for a while but doesn’t think you’d ever him like back, reader is an artist who spends a lot of time drawing landscapes and people, and also daydreaming about Izzy Hands. Sharing a moment together, you both realise that maybe your feelings aren’t actually unreciprocated like you first thought.
Relationship: Izzy/gn reader
Word count: 1.8k+
Warnings: none I can think of
You chuckle to yourself as you watch Izzy stomp across the sand barking orders at the other crew members, not that they paid much attention to anything he was saying. The others find him irritating and demanding but you, you see beneath all that, how dedicated he is to his role as first mate, how he’s just trying to keep everyone safe. Although you had been a bit sceptical of him when he’d first joined The Revenge, you’d soon realised that maybe he wasn’t quite as bad as everyone thinks he is.
At first he’d wrongly assumed you were as incompetent as other members of the crew, you had found it quite amusing to prove him wrong. You remember the first time he’d come to check your knots, ready to shout at you about how useless you were and make you do them all again. But when he’d approached and seen how good they were he’d stopped in his tracks, he didn’t say anything to you, he had simply mumbled that at least someone on this ship was halfway competent as he’d walked off to shout at the next person, from him that was a compliment.
When he’d been asked to train the crew in sword fighting, you’d been excited for your turn, to finally give Izzy some competition, and you had. You remember the way his eyebrows had quirked in surprise when you’d got your first hit, the way the rest of the crew had started cheering you on, happy to finally see someone who can match Izzy. But the man didn’t seem annoyed, he actually seemed quite pleased he had someone decent to spar with. The fight had ended in a draw, he had looked at you and muttered “not bad” before walking away. You like to think that you’d earned some of his respect that day. Since then you’ve sparred with the first mate just for fun several times, you enjoyed spending time with him, and deep down you hoped he did too, you suppose he wouldn’t spend time with you if he completely hated it.
You continue to daydream about the man as you continue your sketch, totally unaware that said man is now standing in front of you. He observes you for a while, the way your brow furrows in concentration as you continue your work. He’s not one to give praise but he must admit that you’re pretty talented, not that he understands why you waste your time with this stuff when there’s so many jobs to be done.
He could watch you all day, has done on many an occasion much to his own annoyance. At first he’d wrongly assumed you were like the others, but unlike them you were actually decent at ship work, didn’t complain when he gave you an order, and as reluctant as he was to admit you were pretty amazing with a sword too. He’d come to enjoy your sparring sessions, it was nice to have someone who could match him, although more than once he’d gotten distracted by you and almost lost. There was something mesmerising about the way you hold your sword, your stance, the fluidity in your movements. It was like the grace and beauty you put into your art was constantly pumping through your veins.
The way he feels about you was becoming an issue, so much so that Lucius has started to pick up on his feelings, stupid Spriggs has taken to teasing him about it. Luckily right now he’s too preoccupied with Pete to witness how Izzy’s hopelessly fawning over someone that will never reciprocate his feelings. Realising how much of a creep he must look right now, he clears his throat to alert you to his presence.
You jump slightly at the sudden intrusion which he finds slightly amusing “You’re lucky I wasn’t someone sneaking up to kill you” he grumbles, trying to keep any genuine concern out of his tone.
You know he’s right you had been distracted, in your own little world, but you’re just glad he doesn’t know what you were daydreaming about. “Yeah I s’pose I’m lucky it was just you” you quip back, missing the way blush starts creeping up his neck.
“Right well shouldn’t you be doing something more useful than just sitting around drawing” but he doesn’t use his normal commanding voice he’d used with the rest of the crew, it’s more just to keep up appearance than expecting you to actually do anything. He knows you’re a hard worker and would’ve finished your chores before taking shore leave, unlike Spriggs who had tried to sneak off with Pete before either of them had done their duties.
You quickly confirm his suspicions “I’ve already finished all my chores, so until we set sail again I shall be here drawing if you need me”
He was going to retort about why would he need you but he has to admit that it’s quite nice to know where you’ll be, there’s something comforting about it. “Right then I’ll leave you to it”
He’s about to walk away when you speak up again “why don’t you join me?”
His brow furrows in confusion, why would you want his company, everyone else tries to avoid him as much as possible, with Ed as the exception but even then it’s mostly so he has a soundboard for his stupid ideas. But you seem to genuinely want his company when you could have the company of anyone on the ship, all the crew adore you and would be happy to spend time with you if you asked, but for some reason you’re asking him. “Why would I want to do that?”
“Because we’re on shore leave and you should relax” you know it’s a lost cause, you’re pretty sure Izzy Hands has never been relaxed in his life but if anyone can get him to then maybe it’s you. After all you’re the one that persuaded him to sit in on one of Stede’s storytimes, even if he did grumble the whole time you still took it as a win.
You can’t help but laugh a little at the confusion on his face as if he’s never heard of relaxation before “I’m too busy”
“Doing what, shouting at the crew? All the chores are done now, let them have their fun”
“I need to debrief Ed and Bonnet”
“Good luck with that, they’ve forbidden anyone from interrupting them for the next 48 hours”
Izzy wrinkles his nose at the implication, realising he doesn’t have any other excuses and sitting next to you wouldn’t be the worst thing, he relents. “Fine just five minutes” lowering himself next to you on the sand, leaning against the rocks. “What you drawing?”
“Just the view” you shrug, always feeling a little awkward at showing your work to others, even to those closest to you.
Izzy leans in closer to get a better look and you can’t help but inhale his scent, he smells like the ocean and something herbal, maybe he’s been borrowing Stede’s soaps. “Not bad” he comments, what he really wants to say is that it’s one of the most beautiful things he’s ever seen but he can’t say those words aloud, not even for you.
“Thanks” you nearly left it there but you were feeling brave “maybe I could draw you one day?”
He rolls his eyes “No way, Spriggs has already asked me a dozen times, I don’t do things like that”
“Oh no, I don’t draw like him, my models are always fully clothed” you assure him, flipping through your sketchbook to show him a sketch you’d done recently of Frenchie as he had sewed up one of your shirts for you.
Izzy admires all the details that go into your art, the way you brought it to life as if he had really been there. “definitely a lot more tasteful than what Spriggs does” he scoffs.
“So?”
“So what?”
“Can I draw you?”
Izzy huffs “Why would you want to draw me anyway, I’m not much to look at”
You were slightly shocked by his admission, to you he was the hottest pirate on the seven seas, you could see why people would be put off by his grumpy demeanour but you just found it endearing. “I think you’d look beautiful on paper” you were going to stop there but then you saw the red tinge creeping into his cheeks. “I mean right now the way the late sun is illuminating your features, the gentle slope of your nose-“
“Stop it” he grumbles “no need to make fun, I already know how I look, I’m not like Edward”
“I mean Ed’s alright if you’re into that sort of thing” you shrug
“You’re not?”
“Nah I have my eyes on someone else” you couldn't quite believe you were actually saying it out loud.
“Oh” Izzy’s face drops “who?” damn this man really is oblivious, but somehow it just makes him even more endearing to you.
Instead of answering his question you move closer, asking for silent permission to kiss this wonderful man. He nods, eyes closing as you gently hold his face in your hands, closing the gap between the two of you until your lips meet. At first he doesn’t move as if he still can’t quite believe it’s happening, frankly you can’t either, but he soon kisses you back. His lips are softer than you expected, his touch gentle as his fingers tangle in your hair, pulling you closer desperate for more.
You find yourself lost in the moment, everything around you quiets, which is probably bad for a pirate but in that moment you can’t find it in yourself to care. As you pull apart you take a second to look into his eyes, drinking in this shared moment together. After a while he breaks the silence “I- um, that was good” you’d never seen the man so shy, it was sweet.
“Yeah, maybe we could do it again sometime?”
Izzy smiles, it was so precious you immediately want him to do it again. “I’d like that”
As the sun sets, you put your sketchbook down to drink in the view whilst Izzy’s head rests on your shoulder. There’s something so peaceful about this moment together, you hoped there would be many more to come.

GUESS WHO JUST FINISHED ECHOES OF WISDOM!!!
Time to talk about it...and how I'll write them in my future LU (or even just normal LoZ) fics lol. I would love to hear how y'all would write and include them as well!
Spoilers below!!!!!!
Second: Link—and the other kids—are shown to be back to normal. I will, obviously, ignore that. If I can ignore TOTK Link getting his arm back, I can ignore EOW Link getting his voice back.
First, I'll consider EOW Link and Legend as different people. Though I'm usually fine with combining Links, everything in the world felt too different to just give it Legend.
If I include Link—who I'll be calling Rift for now, as that's what I've seen people call him the most—I'll either be writing him completely mute, or at least having some difficulty speaking. When you haven't spoken since you were young, it's going to be hard to try it again.
For Zelda—or now: Echo—She's of course going to have her Trirod back. She still has it in her room, and can go and get it if a portal opens for her. I'll also give her back the sword, bow, and bombs. Though we did give them to Rift, it seems he got some new ones in the credits scene, so we could get them back.
And I'll give the bind ability to Zelda, and just say it's the rod that's able to do that. It isn't, but it feels weird to leave it out.
Now, for some actual personality and head canon stuff!
Rift:
He's able to sense rifts, so I think he'll be able to sense the portals as well.
16yrs. They treat both Echo and Rift like they're young, but not so young, so I'll be putting them between 16-18 in my fics. Depends on how much space I wanna give them since the journey ended.
Since the rift stuff has been happening for a while, they made sign language, and it's the main way he communicates.
When/if he talks, he has a slight country accent.
For personality, I can see him being a bit blunt, but still shy. Likes doing stuff by himself, and and will try to help anyone with anything, even small.
He's honest to a fault, and can be easy to trick. No one dares doing stuff to him in his own era though.
Has been offered the position of knight, but declined.
Gives Echo sword fighting lessons.
Zelda:
Very smart but very easily distracted. But when she's focused/decided to do something, it can be hard to stop her.
Loves travelling, and does so whenever she can.
Her favorite words are now 'thank you', and she silently sobs in her head everything she hears it.
Loves doing makeup and dressing up. Has definetly done makeup on Rift before.
She and Rift are now best friends, and can be hard to seperate.
Both excited and dreads becoming a queen.
Everyone's big sister/mother. If anything happeneds to her, people will riot.
A very big gremlim. If arson can be done, it will.

current muses & brief info :
🐝. Bumblebee.
Tumblr media
bee began the ask blog portion of this account in an attempt to help bring everyone closer together by getting to know each other better, hence the bee motif. bee is one of the kindest of the muses, & although IDW ( aka cane bee ) based, his portrayal is flexible, especially regarding his time on Earth. multiversal canon relationships can be incorporated if desired, such as his friendship with humans in bayverse.
🌄. cliffjumper .
Tumblr media
he/she pronouns, a mixture of all his verses portrayals . tfa cliffjumper being his strongest influence on my take of his personality.
🍷. trailcutter / trailbreaker .
Tumblr media
mtmte. a literal vampire to mechs' energy supply .
🔥. hot shot .
Tumblr media
armada. pyrokinetic by personality .
📼. rumble .
Tumblr media
g1. blue, primarily .
🦜. demolisher / ironhide .
Tumblr media
armada . a big tank loyal to megatron & being dumb as rocks .
🏈. blitzwing .
Tumblr media
g1. fire & ice . hateful of quintessons .
🧉. swerve .
Tumblr media
mtmte .
🎙. soundwave .
Tumblr media
CYBERVERSE .
💔. Goldbug .
Tumblr media
Shattered Glass, fun publications & idw inspo.
👁. soundblaster .
siege . DISCLAIMER . he is the nicer of the muses ( because a lot of them are Dicks, lol ) but the worst of them in terms of how far he will go. gore, body horror, torture may be written or heavily implied with his character . he treats his subjects with absent care & respect unless they serve a suitable distraction at the moment . any pronouns .
if interested, a link into a deeper look into him via my art account .
some general rp / ask notifs to note :
all muses unless stated otherwise are multi-ship with Heavy, sometimes selective chem.
while bee is the header of this account, it does not mean he will always be written as i am a multi-muse account. multi-muse only pertains to the characters i have listed below, as these are all characters i have researched on & feel comfortable writing, experience-wise & personally. i will not write requested characters outside of this list out of my own comfort & nervousness on not writing anyone else well enough. the blog is multi-muse to help keep the amount of accounts i own trimmed .
OC + MULTI - VERSAL (mv) friendly . anons & non-roleplay affiliated accounts are greatly encouraged for the ask box, but storylines will be kept to roleplay accounts out of comfort.
Written replies are for separate characters that have been designated for that storyline. i will only write one muse per another roleplayer's muse interaction as if i was running a single muse account in order to keep things organized & understandable. asks may have multiple muses stating their opinions or interacting with each other to be humorous, but written responses will be kept serious. this blog is multi-muse because i love all these characters and would end up with too many tumblr blogs to keep track of, so it's easier for me to keep them all here for now .
all my muses are independent portrayals of varying kinds. ex: blitzwing is g1 based in design & personality, but he has split fire & ice powers & his backstory is influenced by his role in the Transformers 86' movie . the independent portrayal portions of the muses are essentially headcanons, & those that wish to interact do not have to fear about the idea of me wanting you to share the same knowledge i do on the character, this message is mainly to let you guys know a lil' heads-up that if something reads different than how you're used to with a character from that verse of tf, then my independent portrayal is the reason why. they are not extreme & strict, mainly just something i think makes writing the character more fun for me. ex: trailbreaker can make constructs with his forcefields instead of just flat forcefields, such as 'forcefield wine glasses', sunglasses, chains, swords, etc from his forcefields, but it is mainly bcs i think it makes him even more fun to write, & not meant as a godmod as detailed constructs drain his energy even more than his usual high drainage, so he only uses them to entertain or in emergencies .
Detailed tidbits on characters may be uploaded and linked here, but are mainly meant to be explored via roleplay or asks. again, they are independent & meant to be interesting & not intimidating, & can even be something as silly as Hot Shot having braces that he keeps breaking simply because i think it would be cute & add to his character .
i have long roleplay experience, but have never roleplayed on tumblr before. if my formatting looks funky, i apologize !!

Now that Book 7 Part 6 is out, it's time for me to make a post covering those events and how they played out with my Yuu. Everything will be underneath the cut.
Picking up where the last update left off, Yuu's group is back to the spot where they all got swallowed up by the darkness.
From there, things proceed like in canon with everyone chasing after Lilia since the Silver Owls are after him, and they can't afford to be too far away from the person whose dream they're in.
Like Sebek, Yuu hates to leave Maleanor behind, but she knows they can't change the past. All they can do is move forward and do what they can for Lilia.
During the conversation about Sebek's UM, Yuu is surprised like Silver since she had no idea that Sebek had acquired his UM.
She's quick to praise Sebek for acquiring his UM before reaching NRC since that's a really impressive feat, and she also properly expresses her gratitude for his help when he used his UM to "wake up" her and Silver.
Yuu also tells Sebek that she's sure he'll master his UM in no time because he's such a diligent guy, and she knows he can do anything when he sets his mind to it.
Naturally, Sebek is pleased with the praise and is quick to declare that he'll soon completely master his UM, although he also expresses some regret about having to use it on Yuu since he would've preferred to just electrocute Silver lol
The discussion about Lilia's dream and Malleus's lack of involvement is also mostly like it is in canon.
Silver brings up the questions that Yuu has been wondering all this time since Lilia's dream just doesn't make sense. It's the exact opposite of the "perfect, happy dream" Malleus promised.
And just what could be preventing Malleus from trying to stop Yuu's group like what he did in Sebek's dream?
Unfortunately, before they can come up with any plausible theories, the group gets distracted by the sound of warfare, like in canon.
From there, they proceed to come to the aid of some of the royal guardsmen who are holding off some Silver Owls.
Even though she ended up losing her sword after the incident at the Silver Owl’s citadel, Yuu joins the fight since she's fully capable of dodging swords and closing the distance between armed opponents, making using their weapons difficult.
Regrettably, as much as Yuu would like to defeat all the Silver Owls, there are just too many of them. That's why Lilia's men tell her group to go on ahead and find Lilia/Baul, just like in canon.
The next canon divergence happens when the group catches up with Baul, and Sebek insists that he stay with Baul while the others go on ahead.
Yuu isn't a huge fan of the idea for obvious reasons, but she doesn't try to argue with her son cause she knows how important his grandfather is to him.
Plus, this isn't exactly like the Maleanor situation since it's possible Baul can recover and reunite with Lilia once the Silver Owls are taken care of and his injuries are tended to.
That's why she agrees to go on ahead with Silver and Grim but only after ordering Sebek to be careful and not be reckless, to which he states she should follow her own advice lol
From there, things play out like in canon, with nothing changing about the scene with Sebek and Baul.
Meanwhile, Yuu, Grim, & Silver chase after Lilia, fighting any Silver Owls they find along the way.
Upon hearing about the bounty on Malleus's egg, Yuu is just as indignant as Silver for how they're treating a child who hasn't even hatched yet.
It reminds her of the men from Japan's underworld who regularly exploited children and why she's always been so distrustful toward adults.
As a result, Yuu goes on a warpath whenever her group encounters the Silver Owls, and she makes sure to dole out as much pain as possible lol
That's especially the case when her group finally catches up to Lilia and finds him surrounded by Silver Owls, who are getting ready to use their swords on him.
While Silver defends Lilia, Yuu goes after the first Silver Owls she can reach.
Taking full advantage of their element of surprise, Yuu pounces from behind and knocks as many Silver Owls off their feet as she can with the help of Grim whom she teams up with to catch their opponents off guard.
Once they're off balance, Grim uses his magic while Yuu aims for the weak points in their armor, using her fists and whatever weapons she manages to briefly steal from the Silver Owls who accidentally lose their grip on their weapons after falling.
In no time, Yuu's group is able to take out the Silver Owls who weren't a match for their perfect teamwork and Yuu's unholy rage lol
From there, things proceed like in canon with Lilia trying to get Yuu's group to take Malleus's egg to safety while he remains behind to keep the Silver Owls, who are approaching their location, distracted.
This leads to Yuu being put in charge of carrying Malleus's egg while Silver carries Lilia since obviously they have no intention of leaving Lilia behind.
It's a very surreal situation for Yuu since she never imagined there would come a day that she'd carry the egg that one of her dear friends hatched from 😂
As expected of a mother hen like Yuu, the more time she spends carrying the egg, the more her maternal instincts kick into gear especially whenever her group encounters Silver Owls that they have to fight - a task that becomes noticeably more difficult for Yuu due to her having to worry about keeping the egg safe.
Much to Yuu's surprise, during this time, there are moments when it seems as if she's somehow feeling Egg Malleus's emotions, and the longer she spends holding the egg, the more this strange phenomenon occurs.
Since Grim/Silver show no reactions to the egg, Yuu knows whatever is happening is just to her, so either it's cause she's holding the egg or it's just some kind of ability she has. Perhaps this is related to her unusual affinity with fae?
When Yuu shares this with Silver, he's beyond surprised since, from what he knows about fae, such a thing should only be possible for the egg's parents. He's especially never heard of a human harboring the kind of ability she possesses.
(Yuu possesses this ability due to her affinity toward fae/her alien nature. This is all just another facet of her beast taming abilities, although what also helps is Yuu's deep connection to Malleus.)
Naturally, this just makes the situation all the more confusing, but sadly, there really isn't much they can do to figure out what's going on under their current circumstances.
In the end, Yuu decides not to stress about it and instead makes good use of this special ability to ensure that Egg Malleus is alright and not scared. She dotes on the egg a lot, much like how she treats her sons.
At one point, this ability comes in handy when she feels a noticeable amount of anxiety from the egg, no doubt because Egg Malleus has been away from his mother for longer than he's accustomed to.
The only thing Yuu can think of to help Egg Malleus is to sing the lullaby Maleanor was singing to him earlier, which she thankfully remembers all the lyrics to cause Lilia taught it to her prior to Book 7 events.
Since she's still shy about her singing, Yuu keeps her voice low, so only the egg will hear, taking advantage of the fact that Silver and Grim are in front of her, acting as guards for the egg.
Because of the ongoing storm, Grim/Silver don't hear Yuu's singing, but an unconscious Lilia, who has excellent hearing, does, which is why he mutters Maleanor's name in his sleep since his groggy brain is getting her and Yuu's voices confused.
Thankfully, Yuu's attempt at the lullaby is successful since Egg Malleus immediately begins to settle down when he hears the familiar song despite it coming from an unfamiliar voice.
Also, during the part when Silver comes up with a new theory that Malleus is unable to interfere in Lilia's dream cause he hasn't been born yet and he can't imagine things he doesn't know anything about, Yuu was close enough to overhear him, and she thinks the theory is entirely plausible since she really can't think of another reason for why Malleus hasn't shown himself and given Lilia a good dream.
Before Yuu can ponder the matter further, her group arrives at the bridge that they need to cross to get to Mount Dread, and this is where the story diverges from canon, right after Lilia regains consciousness.
Right as Yuu is about to hand Egg Malleus over to Lilia at his request, like what's done in canon, both Yuu and Lilia sense danger and immediately move, just barely avoiding a slew of arrows.
In canon, the arrow attack happens prior to this, but I decided to have it happen at this point for plot reasons and cause the Silver Owls have decided to start attacking together in much large groups due to all the damage Yuu's group, Yuu mostly, has been inflicting upon them lol
Ergo the brigade that shot the arrows ends up teaming up with the brigade that shows up with the excavator, resulting in the situation becoming even more precarious than in canon.
Or at least, that's how it seems at first.
Unbeknownst to everyone, a change begins to unfold with Egg Malleus, who starts to glow while Lilia/Silver/Grim are facing the Silver Owls, keeping themselves in between the Silver Owls and Yuu who's still holding the egg.
At the same time, an unholy rage washes over Yuu because they endangered the egg just now and went after an injured Lilia. Plus, it just royally pisses her off how the Silver Owls are coming in such great numbers to chase down Lilia and capture Egg Malleus, whom they're treating like a prize.
Because Yuu is so consumed by her rage, she fails to notice the fact that the egg is glowing and that she herself is also glowing in tandem with it.
Another thing Yuu doesn't realize is this anger isn't just her own. It's Malleus's too.
Because Yuu and the egg have their emotional connection, Egg Malleus knows he's in danger - that the kind hands holding him are in danger.
And he does not like that one bit.
Catching everyone off guard, Yuu, who's now in an almost feral state, suddenly charges forward and begins decimating the Silver Owl army, one solider after another, moving in a way no one has every seen a human move.
It's all because of Egg Malleus who is infusing his magical power into Yuu and essentially using her as a conduit to unleash his magical might against his enemies, similar to how the egg acts later on in Lilia's memories.
Thanks to the egg, Yuu is able to move faster than she has ever moved, and she's able to leave craters in her wake due to the immense strength she now has her disposal, which allows her to inflict serious blows to the Silver Owls despite their thick armor.
Despite her only being able to attack with her legs cause her arms are full carrying the egg, Yuu is able to still cause some serious damage to the point the Silver Owls start calling her a monster.
Lilia/Silver/Grim are utterly dumbfounded for obvious reasons since they've never seen anything like this before.
Lilia is quick to say that something like this should be impossible. No human should be capable of acting as a conduit for a Draconia's magic, even for a baby still inside their egg. The magic should still be much too powerful for Yuu's body to handle.
And then, Lilia notices that he can somehow sense Maleanor's magic on Yuu while this is all transpiring, and he immediately remembers how Yuu was the last one to see Maleanor.
He's quick to assume that what's happening must be Maleanor's doing. She must have used her magic on Yuu to make it so she could be used by her son like this.
And Lilia's exactly right. Back before they parted ways, Maleanor waved her staff over Yuu, and it was for this purpose, to make it so that Yuu could become a useful tool for her son if he should ever need one to protect himself.
Around this time, Sebek and Baul arrive on the scene, but Sebek doesn't need to use his UM like he did in canon due to the sheer damage the Yuu/Egg Malleus combo are inflicting upon the Silver Owl army.
However, that's not to say the guys aren't doing any fighting. They are since they can't just let Yuu fight on her own, especially when she's holding Egg Malleus, but they just don't need to fight as hard as they do in canon cause Egg Malleus is so powerful due to his Draconian blood and Maleanor's spell which is also acting as a booster of sorts, just like the magic-infused air of Mount Dread.
As a result, the battle ends a lot sooner than it does in canon, and there's definitely a lot more damage done to the Silver Owls who retreat in fear once they realize they stand no chance against the Yuu/Egg Malleus combo.
Because Yuu isn't in her right senses by this point due to being completley overwhelmed by Egg Malleus's anger, she at first tries to go after the retreating Silver Owls since the egg still wishes to inflict more harm upon his enemies.
However, Silver and Sebek quickly call out to Yuu to tell her that she doesn't need to fight anymore - that it's dangerous for her to chase after the Silver Owls.
Thankfully, Yuu regains some of her senses upon hearing their voices and ceases her movements.
Unfortunately, things proceed to go downhill from there.
Much to her friends' surprise/dismay, Yuu abruptly falls to her knees and starts crying out in pain.
Lilia quickly realizes it's because the egg's magic is still pouring into Yuu. Because that magical power isn't being expended cause the fighitng is over, it just keeps pouring into Yuu who's like an overflowing cup now - a cup that's on the verge of shattering since it's too fragile to contain such potent contents.
As everyone hurriedly approaches Yuu, Lilia yells that they have to separate Yuu from the egg before Egg Malleus kills her with his magic cause he's still upset/doesn't realize that there are no more enemies to vanquish.
Regrettably, this task isn't as easy as it sounds since the egg electrocutes everyone who touches him cause Egg Malleus doesn't want to be separated from Yuu, whom he doesn't realize he's hurting cause, despite how powerful he is, he's still just a baby.
As Lilia/Baul are wondering what to do, Silver/Sebek, who are both panicking cause Yuu won't be able to last much longer, continue trying to touch the egg despite the electrocution and beg Malleus to stop and calm down.
Thankfully, their pleas finally get answered just after Grim shouts that Yuu won't be able to dote on Egg Malleus anymore if he doesn't stop hurting her.
It's that remark that finally gets through to Egg Malleus who immediately stops pouring his magic into Yuu, much to a dumbfounded Lilia/Baul's amazement.
Immediately, Lilia grabs the egg and pulls it away from Yuu who gets grabbed by Silver and Sebek after she promptly passes out.
Quickly, Lilia has Baul look Yuu over since she's in rough shape thanks to the egg's magic going wild.
Much to Yuu's friends' dismay, despite her now being separated from the egg, her condition appears to be getting worse by the second.
Lilia/Baul aren't surprised by this since no human should be capable of surviving being treated like a fae's magic conduit, especially for a Draconia, even with the help of Maleanor's magic. It's a miracle that she's alive right now.
After Baul finishes looking Yuu over, he solemnly says that there's nothing they can do for her. Not even a high class potion could heal the kind of damage she sustained and is still enduring since, even though Egg Malleus is no longer using his magic on her, his magic that got poured into Yuu is still hurting her from the inside out.
Upon hearing that Yuu's demise is imminent, Silver, Sebek, & Grim are horrified and feel like they've just been sucker-punched.
Unable to believe there's nothing that can be done for Yuu, Grim tearfully demands that Lilia/Baul do something to which the fae just give him solemn, sympathetic looks.
Meanwhile, Silver and Sebek are quietly conversing amongst themselves, fearfully wondering how this will affect Yuu in the real world. Surely, she won't actually die, right?
....right?
As he cries and clings onto Yuu, Grim asks why Maleanor would use her magic on Yuu if channeling fae magic is that dangerous. She should've known that this would happen, right?
There's a brief period of silence before Lilia sighs and says that of course she knew. She just didn't care because she hates humans. Of course, she wouldn't care about this sort of end result if it was for the sake of protecting her son.
This revelation really hits Grim, Silver, and Sebek hard, Sebek especially, because Sebek is finally getting a taste of why there are humans that fear the fae and think negatively of them.
(I really wanted to include a scene like this for the sake of Sebek's character development since, according to what I've seen in Book 7 spoilers, Sebek really hasn't changed much in how he feels fae are superior and are always in the right.
I wanted Sebek to finally see things from a human's perspective, and I figured the only way to make that happen is by having him go through seeing someone he loves undeservedly suffer cause of a fae's actions.
For something like this, Sebek can't make excuses like he normally would cause Yuu is in no way at fault here.)
However, unlike Grim who gets angry on Yuu's behalf, Sebek remains silent as he starts shaking and his eyes begin clouding with tears.
Eventually, Grim stops yelling at Lilia/Baul and instead starts yelling at Yuu as he shakes her, demanding that she wake up and not die.
She can't die! Grim hasn't given her permission to leave his side! She's supposed to be with him forever!
"Don't leave me!"
At this point, Sebek is sobbing like Grim and has also futilely started calling out to Yuu, begging her to wake up - to overcome the odds like she always does.
"You've overcome so many obstacles, so do it once more! Please!"
Meanwhile, Silver just silently holds one of Yuu's hands, which are cold to the touch. There are tears in his eyes, but he can't bring himself to say anything, too distraught to find words. All he can do is internally blame himself for not being strong enough to prevent such a horrible outcome.
"I'm so sorry."
As this is happening, Lilia feels a strong pain in his chest when he looks at Yuu and sees her friends' distress. He hates seeing them like this, although he doesn't understand why he's reacting so strongly cause he doesn't realize that it's his true self's feelings coming through.
Much to Lilia's surprise, he soon gets distracted from that pain inside his chest when he suddenly hears what sounds like crying coming from Egg Malleus.
Lilia: *completely dumbfounded* Is Malleus...crying for Yuu...? Is that even possible...?
This situation only becomes even crazier when the egg starts glowing and Lilia suddenly gets the feeling that he should bring the egg closer to Yuu.
For obvious reasons, Lilia doesn't think that's a good idea, but when the crying becomes even louder, he finally relents and moves so that he can brush the egg against Yuu's forehead, catching everyone else off guard.
When Baul questions Lilia, Lilia retorts that he has no idea why he's doing this. He's just trying to get Malleus to stop crying, which just further confuses everyone cause Lilia was the only one who heard Malleus's crying.
Everyone quickly gets distracted, however, when Egg Malleus abruptly starts sucking up all the magic he had previously poured into Yuu - the magic that had been slowly killing her - something Lilia had no idea that the egg could do.
Much to everyone's amazement/disbelief, after Egg Malleus collects all of the magic he poured into Yuu, Yuu's appearance begins to visibly improve. Her skin starts to regain its color and regains some of its warmth, and her breathing becomes progressively less labored.
A few minutes later, Yuu opens her eyes with a groan, all the while wondering what happened since her memory of recent events is foggy.
When her blurry vision clears, Yuu sees her sons' tear-stained faces and Silver's teary eyes, which naturally worries her and leads to her asking them what's wrong.
Rather than give her an answer, Grim and Sebek just sob in relief as they cling onto her with all their strength. Meanwhile, Silver just softly smiles as he continues to tightly grasp her hand.
Completely dumbfounded, Lilia & Baul wonder how Yuu is alive. Even with Egg Malleus reclaiming his magic, she still shouldn't have been able to recover from being his magical conduit.
It's at that moment Lilia finally realizes that he can once again sense Maleanor's magic on Yuu, and he wonders if Maleanor made it so that Yuu's life would be spared if that was something her son wanted.
Did his human hating princess really use magic that could potentially save a human's life?
(Yes, she did, but Maleanor really didn't think things would turn out like this since she wasn't expecting a mere human to win her son's favor. Plus, even with the help of her magic, no ordinary, weak human would be able to survive being a conduit for Draconia magic, so Maleanor just mostly did it cause a human who can survive something like that would be worth keeping around for a little while longer, and she just wanted to test the strength of this strange human.)
Around this time, everyone gets distracted by the earthquake and the worsening weather conditions that happens as a result of Maleanor's overblot - events that didn't happen right after the battle with the Silver Owls like in canon cause the battle was wrapped up so quickly here.
Like Silver/Sebek, Yuu quickly realizes that Maleanor has overblotted since everything that's happening is like what happened when Malleus overblotted.
From there, things proceed like in canon with everyone having to hurry to cross the bridge that leads to Mount Dread, which is in the process of collapsing due to the bad weather.
Sebek takes the job of carrying Yuu since she's pretty exhausted thanks to recent events and because he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to hold her close since Yuu's near death experience unsurprisingly took quite the emotional toll on him.
Fortunately, they're all able to cross the bridge before it completely collapses, and now, they won't have to worry about any more Silver Owls pursuing them.
At this point, Yuu is on the verge of falling asleep cause she's so tired cause of what happened with Egg Malleus and cause she's been shivering so much thanks to the rain.
Upon seeing Yuu about to pass out, Lilia siccs Baul on her, so before Yuu can react, she's got a potion bottle shoved in her mouth by Baul who orders her to drink all of it lol
Since it really is a miracle that Yuu is alive, Yuu has a potion forced on her since she'll likely need it for the sake of her recovery.
After Yuu drinks the potion, she finally passes out, leaving Sebek with the job of carrying her the rest of the way, which he's perfectly fine with.
From there, things proceed like in canon with the group ascending Mount Dread to get to Dragonopolis/Castle Blackscale.
Because Yuu is asleep, there's nothing really to add here aside from her being noticeably affected by the mountain's harsh environment, which worries Sebek and prompts him to hug her tighter.
He also tries to press her face against his neck, so his hood will partially protect her face from the rain and so she can get some skin-to-skin contact.
Sebek also makes Grim jump into Yuu's lap, so the extra body heat can help her. Grim is agreeable to the idea since he's all for not walking under these conditions, and he wants to help Yuu in any way he can.
Thankfully, when the group eventually crosses paths with the royal guardsmen that Maleficia sent out, they're able to gain access to some overcoats and medicine, the former of which quickly gets wrapped around Yuu, whose clothes then get dried via magic by Silver since the large overcoat will prevent her clothes from getting wet again and he was worried about leaving her in wet clothes for a prolonged period of time.
Yuu finally wakes up after the group reaches Castle Blackscale and the storm caused by Maleanor fades. She wakes up just in time to hear Baul explain that Maleanor has died, much to her dismay.
Even though Yuu had assumed things would turn out like this since Malleus doesn't have a mother in present time, it still hurts especially when she sees how devastated Lilia is by Maleanor's death.
Her sadness quickly turns into anger when the Senate shows up and starts treating Lilia horribly like in canon. She internally begins planning on finding out how to permanently kill a ghost, so she can go after the Senate once Malleus gets stopped since Malleus is in no need of cruel beings like them, and she's sure Malleus would agree.
That whole scene is the same as canon since Yuu knows that this is a dream and there is nothing she can do to change what happened all those centuries ago.
Instead, Yuu just watches with surprise and sadness when Lilia resigns, not having expected that this was the reason why Lilia stopped being a general.
When the darkness shows up and goes after Lilia like in canon, Yuu has Sebek set her down and hurries to go after Lilia along with the rest of her friends, thankfully in better shape after getting some rest, although she's obviously not at full strength.
The scenes about Lilia's memories of everything that happens as he works to hatch Egg Malleus are also mostly like in canon.
Yuu is touched by Lilia's dedication to Malleus and his parents and how Lilia began all of his traveling for Malleus's sake.
It also breaks her heart that the egg goes so long without being hatched and that this is the reason there was a time discrepancy between Malleus's birth and hatching.
Yuu wonders why Egg Malleus keeps rejecting the magic given to him, but when it's finally revealed that he's been lonely, she finally understands, and it hurts her to see that even as an egg Malleus dealt with such severe loneliness.
When Malleus finally hatches, Yuu is overjoyed and moved by the fact that this is the happiest moment of Lilia's life. Despite everything that happened that led to this moment, this is still a moment he'll always treasure, which is why this is the kind of dream he was given by Malleus's magic.
During this emotional moment, this very comical exchange occurs:
Yuu: After this, I don't think I'll ever be able to look at Tsunotaro the same way again. I mean, c'mon, I held him in my arms while he was an egg! I've now seen him as a cute baby lizard!
Sebek: *releases a scandalized gasp* Do not call him a lizard!
Yuu: *ignores him* At this rate, I'm gonna have to ask Lilia-senpai to share custody with me. There's no going back after going through all this.
Grim: *groans* Not another one...I thought seven was enough for ya...
Silver: *just quietly chuckles*
Regrettably, this moment quickly gets ruined by the Senate, and Yuu once again has a mighty desire to kill some spirits lol
Her anger soon turns into worry/dismay when Malleus arrives on the scene, having finally found Lilia.
This scene mostly plays out like canon with Yuu's group getting in between Malleus and Lilia and Silver's words being what finally wake Lilia up.
The only thing to add is that Yuu yells that, just because she carried him when he was an egg and saw him as a cute baby, doesn't mean she's gonna go easy on Malleus. She fully intends to give this tantrum-throwing boy some much needed discipline lol
After Lilia wakes up, he has everyone run away from Malleus and tells Yuu's group to move onto a new dream while he takes care of distracting Malleus.
Even though they obviously don't want to leave Lilia behind, they all know it's for the best, and Yuu understands that Lilia really is the only person who can stand up against Malleus, especially while he's in top shape thanks to the environment of his dream.
Unfortunately for Yuu, when Silver uses his UM, she soon finds herself in another situation where she's free-falling, much to her great dismay.
Thankfully, Silver is quick to grab her and holds her close while Sebek grabs Grim with the hand he doesn't use to latch onto Silver.
Yuu keeps her eyes shut in hopes of making this situation even slightly better for her, but her eyes fly open when she hears Ortho's voice.
As expected, Yuu is elated to see Ortho who's just as happy to have finally found her.
Like in canon, Ortho quickly has everyone latch onto him, so he can bring everyone to Idia's dream.
Fortunately, because Silver maintained a tight grip on her, Yuu is able to avoid a rough landing since she ends up landing on top of him, which she apologizes for, to which he waves it off since he's just glad she's alright.
After making sure everyone is alright, Yuu finally takes in her surroundings and realizes that they're all now at Ignihyde dorm which menas this dream can only belong to one person, although it was already pretty obvious considering who brought her here.
As she's looking around for Ortho and Idia, Yuu finally catches sight of the latter, who's awkwardly standing nearby, looking like he's struggling to find a way to smoothly direct everyone's attention to himself lol
Catching everyone off guard, Yuu happily rushes over to Idia and throws her arms around him, causing him to make a startled, embarrassed sound. "Idia-senpai! Boy, am I glad to see you! I've been waiting for you! You're late!"
All this time, Yuu has wondered when she'd finally see the Shroud brothers, whom she had been planning with prior to Malleus's OB in order to prepare for these crazy events, so it's a relief to finally reunite with them.
Once he overcomes his initial surprise/embarrassment, Idia grins as he pats her head. "Of course, I am. The hero is always late. Whee hee hee!"
With just that, Yuu is immediately put at ease because at long last things are finally moving in the right direction.
And she couldn't be more grateful.

BANGER FINALE! I need the next season injected into my veins right away, thank God we don’t have to wait too long and got the announcement already.
Tumblr media
I was gonna be so mad if they skipped Yama’s Burn this week since it’s an absolute bop, opening up with the ED and saving the OP for the end credits after that last 2-3 minute sequence was dope tho. Really got me hype. It’s kind of crazy to think we’re basically going right into the big showdown with Shishio, Aoshi and the strongest of the ten swords tomorrow in universe time lol. That’s such a fast turnaround and I’m really worried about how Aoiya are gonna handle the other 10 swords.. next season is gonna be really interesting.
Speaking of the ten swords, that Shishio and Hoji scene was crazy. “when did you get the rank to give an opinion” had me dying, but when he saw Hoji’s determination ripping his own nails off, even Shishio had to acknowledge his plan. I was so ready to call Hoji a dumbass for still simping for Shishio when it looked like he was gonna sell him out to protect himself from the 10 swords seeing he used them as a distraction, but I guess it paid off lol. I do think that’s gonna end up being Shishio downfall tho. I’m at least pretty sure Anji will end up turning on him.

That nighttime roof convo with Kenshin and Kaoru was so good, but LMAOOO because where tf did Megumi come from? I swear Kenshin got one of the most entertaining harems ever lol. Everyone just casually being up in the middle of the night to reassure Kenshin he could trust them to protect the city was sweet, but funny as hell lmao. God I am gonna miss this cast.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was better than season 1, can only imagine how good season 3 is gonna be. Had a blast for each and every one of these eps! BURN will be on repeat until season 3.

Murder Drones Theory - Tessa in Ep6
By the end of episode six, I found Tessa to be extremely suspicious. In this post I'll go over my personal points on why I thought so.
First point:
When Tessa tried to distract the sentinel before it could kill N and the sentinel attacked her hand, causing it to bleed, shouldn't she have died then?? Her bleeding means that her suit is now torn, and the toxic atmosphere should have killed her since she was then exposed to it. But she didn't die. So is she really human?
I highly doubt so, or at least she's not as human as she wants everyone to believe.
Tumblr media
Second point:
Soon after, when the sentinels find them again, Tessa uses her blood to her advantage and slashes her sword at her hand to make it bleed more. While doing it, she shows absolutely no signs of pain and acts like it's nothing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Third point:
When V salutes as she's about to sacrifice herself, Tessa says absolutely nothing nor does she react in any way. I'd think she would have at least tried to protest and stop V from doing that too like N (since it seems like Tessa sees N, V, and J as family), but she didn't. It seems a lot like she didn't care. Tessa could have at least thanked V for saving her from the bullet that could've killed her a few minutes before.
Tumblr media
Fourth point:
While this post is mainly about episode six, I also would like to point out something in episode five.
When Tessa was trapped in the room with Cyn and all the worker drones that had turned into murder drones, how did Tessa escape?? Did she even manage to escape? I have a feeling she never did, or at least not without paying a price. (There is no way Cyn just let her go, though that idea would be hilarious LOL)
Either what happened was Cyn/the Absolute Solver killed Tessa that day in that room, or took control of Tessa in a way since Tessa may be a drone (going off my theory that Tessa isn't human or at least not fully human).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In conclusion, the Tessa we saw in episode six may not be the same Tessa we saw in episode five. Then again, she was a child in episode five and she's now an adult in episode six so a lot of things may have happened and she definitely could have changed over the years.
But what if that isn't Tessa? Or it is Tessa, but she's controlled by Cyn?
We can't trust that this character is who they say they are, as their astronaut suit completely conceals their appearance. As of now, this will just have to be another mystery.
Tumblr media
I also want to put this video here that I found that shares more points that I didn't go over.

Gawain and the Green Warrior, a SatBK fic 1/?
tw. gore (not in heavy detail)
Summary: A strange warrior bearing no weapons approaches King Arthur's court, and Gawain plays a dangerous game.
note: I am writing this on 3 hours of sleep, so this is definitely not my best work lol.
Sir Gawain took a bite of bread and fidgeted with his crimson spines as he stared out the stained glass windows of King Arthur's main eating hall. It had been snowing heavily for some days now and all in the room were concerned for Camelot's people if it picked up into a full blizzard.
The other knights had been quiet about it. Unless it was the workings of a powerful mage, there was little to be done for it but to hope it passed quickly. Arthur, on the other hand, had been working tirelessly to ensure that his people would be warm and fed in the storm. As noble an endeavor as ever, so thought Sir Gawain, but it did little to ease his troubles, and he could not help but feel helpless sat there, unable to act.
In his distraction, he was among the most startled when the pair of great doors at the other end of the hall slammed open, to the point that he had accidentally bumped Sir Percival and made her spill her drink. The other knight pushed Sir Gawain off of her and was about to say something when their king spoke.
"Hail there, Stranger. What brings you before your king?" The blue hedgehog on the throne asked.
Gawain stood and turned to see a green tenrec woman with braided quills pulling off a snow-frosted cloak. She wore a chain hauberk over a yellow tunic, cinched at the waist by a broad belt. The patterns on her belt and on the helmet, which was tucked under her arm, were of a style foreign to those in the room. She also bore no weapons on her person. "Hail, no king of mine. I am--"
"Treason!" Gawain shouted as he prepared to draw his twin sacred swords Galatine. He was stopped by a strong hand from Sir Lancelot, and when he turned to look at Arthur, it appeared that he was about to call him off.
Gawain sheathed his swords and Arthur looked back to the strange foreigner, who was looking side-eyed at Gawain with a sharp-toothed grin. There was too much mischief there for Gawain to like it though. "I apologize for Sir Gawain, he is stronghearted but hasty," Arthur said, "Please, continue."
"I am a warrior from Ormskirk in the north, under King Harald Harfagri, and I come have come to play a game," the stranger said, turning her grin to Arthur.
"I see, I apologize for my inhospitality as well," Arthur said less menacingly, "I understand that hospitality is important to your people. You may dine with us for now until we find better accommodations. In the meantime, tell us, what is this game?"
The green warrior's grin grew. "My game," she said as she turned her eyes back towards Gawain, "is simple. I will allow any one of you to strike me how you choose with any weapon of your choice. Should I live, follow me to my home a week after I leave, and I will do what has been done to me."
This was a challenge, plain and simple, and one Gawain was more than happy to fulfill. He drew his swords again and pushed past Lancelot. If this insane interloper sought death, he would deliver it.
He did not hear Arthur's cry of "Wait!" until it was too late. Galatine descended on warrior's neck and her head flew into the air, landing several feet to the knight's left. She didn't even flinch. Gawain respected that.
Gawain turned back to face the rest of the round table. "She sought death and I delivered," he said, to no response. In fact, everyone was utterly silent and unmoving. It took him a second to notice that it was not him they stared at.
When he turned back around, he expected to see the body of the tenrec splayed out dead on the floor. Instead, he beheld a horrific sight. The tenrec woman still stood, and what's more, she had just picked her head back up. As she lined her head with the stump of her neck, lightning crackled arced between them
When her head was firmly on her shoulders, she rolled her neck and the sickening pops of her spine was audible all throughout the hall. "Mmmh, I needed that, thank you," she said as though she had just received a back massage, "Well, I had best be off. See you in Ormskirk, Sir Blodharr~"
She quickly turned to leave, but not before she gave one of Gawain's locs a sharp flick. He only stood and watched as she slung the cloak over her shoulders and walked down the hallway towards the stables. After a minute, he excused himself to leave. No one stopped him. At this point, snow was the least of his worries.
Endnotes: I have yet to work out how to write it but bloody hell I WILL turn this into a ship. Heavily inspired by @teamxdark's own work with the SatBK, and if I rewrite this, I might switch out Lance for Shadow and/or hint at a relationship with Arthur (as the Kingdom's worst kept secret)

Let’s hear your top favorite Leo and Raph moments it can be for any iteration. Let’s make challenging one from each iteration lol then we can do some sweet Donnie x mikey moments XD
Top favorite Leo and Raph moments from each iteration? Gotcha!
(Maybe not 'top' per se, but I'll mention some significant ones.)
'87: (Disclaimer- I need to watch the entire series, so this is limited.)
Off the top of my head, I'd say it's S2E1 when Raphael called Leonardo "Fearless Leader" for the first time. Technically, Michelangelo referred to him as "o fearless leader" first but Raphael kept it going so this set a precedent. This same episode is when Leo starts dealing with the seriousness of responsibility.
90s: Leo's vigil over Raph during his coma and the moment he woke up. Leo is anxious and Raph is calm, seeing them balance each other even with their usual temperament was touching.
2k3: I've only watched the series fully once and there are so many good moments of connectivity, but a powerful time was during Leo's PTSD arc in Season 4. Everyone in the family were stressed out because the calm one wasn't at peace, but none more than Raph. There were so many comments from others about how Leo was acting like Raph, to the point Raph finally tried to "have words about this attitude" of Leo acting like Raph. (So similar to my 90s moment of the two balancing each other by alternating their normal personalities.)
2007: As much as I and most everyone else were like, "what the heck was THAT?" about the rooftop fight, my top moment was Raph rescuing Leo. When Raph handed him the set of swords saying he will need these only for Leo to turn to him and reply that he needs him too... again, similar to my 90s moment of the two when Leo was telling Raph how he needs him.
2012: So many good moments here, from the little hand thing they do in S1E4 during the whole A-team vs B-team episode to all the times Raph apologizes to Leo... but my top is when they flipped my favorite 90s moment (hmm starting to think this was a pivotal scene for me). Like when I say I was just absolutely ecstatic at the throwback... I was absolutely ecstatic! Since they condensed three months into less than three minutes, reading fanfics on insight into that time is one of my favorite tropes.
2014/2016 (Bay): Two moments tie. One, when Raph threatens one day he will leave and Leo has to reassure the younger two that he isn't going anywhere and just glares at him- it makes me laugh. Second, when Raph finds all three of them in the lab and only calls out to Leo- it makes me smile.
2018/Rise: During the movie, Leo's apology to Raph. During the series, is much harder because they have so many cute moments so here's my top three:
3) Leo calling Raph 'Big Daddy' during "Clothes Don't Make the Turtle" - it literally made my jaw drop.
2) Leo saying he's been on "Team Raph" this whole time and Raph smiles giving him a fist bump replying, "My turtle! Member since day one." (One Man's Junk)
1) Pretty much the entire "Down with the Sickness" episode- from watching Raph play DDR while Leo is distracting him to the way Leo babbles encouragement up to the ending when Leo ruins things rushing to give Raph a hug after calling him "my little Raph-a-doodle!" I literally watch this every time I'm sick because it cheers me up!
>>"Raphael, I love you, my brother, but you do tend to fail in big moments. Pishposh! But that’s what makes you, you! Now bring it in, buddy! I’m gonna hug you till a smile comes out!"<<

So... Those Secret Life tarot predictions I've been doing huh? Well it's Grian's turn! Reminder that you don't really need to know anything about Tarot Cards. If you're curious though it's just a simple 5 card spread I made specifically for this. Also I did this on November 2nd of 2023 (it's a Thursday) cuz I'll probably decide to schedule this as to not spam the tags lol.
First Card - Start
So this card was rough because while I was placing it I turned it without thinking about it (which I like never do). I had to debate whether to interpret it upright (how it would've been had I not turned it) or reversed (how it was when flipped it over). As I said in the very first post, I'm doing these as practice so this is also just a 'well wtf do I do in this situation' sort of milestone. In the end I've decided to interpret it as upright with a kind of side note of reversal... if that makes sense... I'm gonna combine the meanings a little bit!
I drew the Ace of Wands... uh... funky style. (Sure that makes sense right? /silly) This card is describing Grian's start of Secret Life as involving a lot of hard work. There could be some minor setbacks but he'll likely work through them fine enough. He'll probably have a great time, honestly, if this card has any truth to it.
Second Card - Individual
This card is describing how Grian does in the game basically. For it I drew the reversed 8 of Swords. He survives through the more difficult first part of starting in a new life series world. So far he's doing very well too so this is supported! If you've seen his episodes you'll know he's not exactly down a whole lot of hearts yet. This card also talks about being open to change and new opportunities. What new opportunities? I'm so glad you asked. To the next card!
Third Card - Social
This card is meant to describe how Secret Life goes for Grian on the social end of this series. I drew the Death card which made me laugh. The death card is about change, rebirth, and transitioning from one phase to another. My brain immediately went to how everyone and their grandma were drawing comparisons between his first ep with Scar on the camel and third life. This makes me think he's either not going to team up with anyone or if he does it'll be someone he hasn't yet and well... So far it's looking like the former! It makes that lil' comparison extra fun cuz this is saying he'll be putting the past expirences behind for something new.
Fourth Card - Big Impact
I drew the reversed Page of Pentacles which is wild cuz I drew that for Joel too but as his season end. Here I drew it for Grian's 4th card which is describing what makes the greatest impact for him this season. This card talks about a lack of progress and getting lost in the details. He might get too caught up in something and forget about his task.
Fifth Card - End
I drew the 3 of Pentacles for how Grian'll end Secret Life. This card talks about collaboration and learning. He's probably very secure in his beliefs... except that those beliefs might be a strict adherence to the rules which could ultimately cause him more problems than necessary. It also means he could take the advice and criticisms of his fellow players pretty well.
So do I think this reading is predicting Grian to win? Not in the slightest. 3 of pentacles really feeling like a participation trophy here lol. Like 'yay you learned things and got to make content with all these lovely people!' Not exactly something screaming he's gonna win. If I had to take a gander as to how it goes down, I'd reckon he gets distracted and fails a hard task or fails his normal tasks multiple times (based on the 4th card). That would then somehow push him to be more strict with rule following (based on the 5th card). If that is what happens, the fail would probably happen either soon and then affect the majority of his season or later when he's low. Maybe it's what turns him red.

OH DANA, you never fail to feed us so well ive gobbled everything up!!!! Namjoon moments, new domestic Jimin activities, OUR HOBI TRYING TO TALK US DOWN FROM THE LEDGE. like nice try babes but I wouldn't want to just take what that ghost said to me either, boutta throw hands with the entities. Sure they can call me a wh*re but mama didn't raise a COWARD. I'd also want to exorsice them out of pure spite (and for the safety of the family I guess) 😤 (also another hobi scenting scene? Yeah. Hot)
The second investigation was so cool and terrifying to read as well. My jaw dropped when I read the line saying we didn't notice our incense stick running out and the shadows around our ghost buster team. I was thoroughly spooked. However that got us JUNGKOOK TAT & PIERCING REVEAL! JUNGKOOK TAT & PIERCING REVEAL! I love bonding with our boys and looking respectfully.
HYBRID RIGHTS! HYBRID RIGHTS!!! WOOOOOO 🎉🎉🎉 loved the return of y/n's parents im forever in awe of the way you write the supporting characters as well. I really care for everyone in the trouville verse immensely. I like the intro of more opportunities for our boys as well with advancing hybrid rights! Really interested to see where this will go. (Considering our growing codependency to our hybrids im looking forward to different yearning opportunities lol)
Regarding the ending...
WE FUMBLED THE BAG SO HARD 😫 WHY AM I ACTUALLY UPSET ABOUT THIS WEEKS ENDING? I'm y/n fr fr my heart took a deep plunge into icy cold waters of REJECTION. Bestie really said you snooze you lose and WE LOST SO BAD. HOW WILL WE RECOVER???? 😫😭
( also I went back to read some asks on the blog and turns out there has been a new 🍒anon while I was gone, so I will now be signing off as 🧡anon! To avoid confusion for me lol)
-🧡
EEEE STOPPP THANK YOU 🥺🥺🥺 Honestly you guys feed me just as well when we chat about the story together, too 💕💕
You're so so soooo right about wanting to throw hands with the ghosts. Like first you corner me in a bedroom, call me a whore, then you have the balls to hurt one of the hybrids I love??? BYE! I'd be up in that house with holy oil, spell candles, and a goddamn sword on fire if I were Y/N!!!
Defff was time for another scenting, especially one from a hybrid she's not already romantically involved with! I like that it was a more tender, romantic moment between her and Hoseok, which things between the two of them have been pretty bestie/platonic aside from a few instances here and there. V HOT!
OOO I know like that was the first UH OH moment, when she forgot to light another stick of incense! She must have been so distracted by trying to protect Jeongguk and Namjoon from the shadows that she didn't notice it went out. But YEEEEEEEE GOTH JEONGGUK TATS! AND PIERCINGS!!! MY OBSESSION!!!! She also was NAWT looking respectfully 💀
WOOOOOOO HYBRID RIGHTS FUCKING FINALLY!!!!!!! AND stop 😭😭😭😭 I'm so happy you like the supporting characters, and not just the mains, it's important for Y/N to have others to lean on, not just her hybrids. I also love her mother's Jamie Lee Curtis vibes 🥰 I def think that a handful of the hybrids will either seek some kind of employment or maybe check out a uni class, Jimin and Hoseok in particular. I mean seriously, Jimin can't hang out with horses FOREVER 💀
fjkdaslfhasf IM KNOWN FOR THE MADDENING ENDINGS IM SORRYYY 💀 No seriously though that betrayal is gonna be brutal for her. I imagine Taehyung still feels a little betrayed that she hid her relationship with Yoongi from her, but like what was she supposed to do--- sit him down and go heyyyy I love Yoongi is that alright with you? Like imagine that conversation 💀 We WILL recover though I swear!!! Need some angst and obstacles to make everything more satisfying in the end 😉
OOP I'm sorry about the anon mixup lovebug!!! I love the orange heart too, though, so welcome back to our corner of Tumblr and sending you love 💜

Do you think Nene will meet Tsukasa or Amane in the red house? What do you think will happen? Personally, I think it might not be a good idea. Nene is not well and seeing one of the twins in that state is… dangerous.
I definitely agree it would be dangerous for nene to encounter either of the twins in their current states, but I find it really interesting that you mention nene’s current mindset as a risk factor! while she’s clearly (and understandably) upset by the changes she’s seen, I think she’s been making really rational, mature, and thoughtful decisions this arc, even if they were a little misguided or didn’t consider the whole scope of possibilities, as teru pointed out.
in terms of danger and mindset, I feel like nene will be in the most danger if she tries to give this amane or tsukasa the benefit of the doubt, as she’s inclined to do, due to her typically optimistic and trusting mindset, as well as her history with the yugis. she may also run into a possessed kou or mitsuba and run into a similar problem. so I think it could be her trusting, kind nature that gets her into danger this arc. though she is definitely making decisions in a way that's based on what's best for the other people she cares about, so i agree that's definitely something that these new, more possessed versions of the yugis could use against her if they (or whoever is in control of them) wanted to.
but nene's optimism and faith in others has always been a double edged sword that has also helped her make progress before, so her giving and trusting nature could help her in this arc too!! maybe she’ll befriend more red house victims again, and be able to rally allies. in terms of her trusting nature, maybe she'll end up trusting the people mitsuba shied away from last chapter, and we could get to see what their intentions were before amane took mitsuba.
however, as of right now, nene is at least with other people who can help her, should she be swayed. I don't expect them to all stick together, but I'm assuming teru has some sort of plan? the idea that everyone is mostly going along with at the moment is teru’s, which raises a lot of questions for me! surely he’s prepared to encounter new timeline tsukasa again, and maybe even new timeline amane, but I have no clue if he’d want nene to see the yugis (maybe to extra convince her to go back? maybe to see if her presence affects the new timeline yugis at all? as bait or a distraction? so many possibilities!!) or if he’d want to keep them separate for any reason. so a lot of whether she sees the yugis probably depends on teru's plan and how prepared he is going into this. he seemed to know a lot about the red house in the original red house arc, but we haven't seen him interacting with it, so i'm really interested to see how much he knows about it and how his exorcist powers stack up against the red house's powers!
as far as the yugis are concerned, I have far more questions than theories lol, including: would either of them have reason to recognize nene? have they been having dreams of a different life too? what are their current goals, and how does their dedication to those goals stack against any feelings for nene that may be sticking around from the original timeline? personally, I have no clue! but I’m excited to find out!! scared for our girl, but also very excited. as an angst fiend, I think it could be really terrifying and exciting to see an amane who has no regard for nene or her safety. how new and interesting and horrifying if our hero turns against our heroine!!
honestly i would love to see nene interacting with this new amane, even if it goes poorly for both of them. i also love nene and tsukasa interactions, and he's been her amane info guide thus far in the story, and especially in the red house arc, so maybe we'll get more of that this arc? but again i'd really love to see nene and new timeline amane interact bc i think it would be really scary and devastating<3 so yeah definitely dangerous and not a good idea....but it would be really interesting to see lol
I’m honestly just so thrilled to be along for the ride this arc lol. especially since the red house is probably my favorite arc (is my tsukasa bias showing? lol) I’m so excited for all the lore we could get in this return to this setting!!

OKay gotta distract myself from constantly refreshing my fic and staring at numbers, by continuing my spop rewatch
If you're new here: I'm rewatching all of She-Ra for fic writing purposes, and live-blogging it, with too many screenshots. None of this is spoiler-free. I make a lot of jokes and talk about my life and make references to other shit.
Also, I find Catra's villainy to be kinda hot (okay more than just kinda hot)
s4 ep1 the coronation
"April did you rewatch the Portal scene again"
Yes, because that's where I left it paused, mind your own business
OKAY so I remember this from the first time I watched it, like, four years ago--that of all the emotional stuff this show gets 100% correct, I'm not sure Glimmer's grief over her mother is all that accurately portrayed. She just seems to "get over it" too fast?
By which I mean: yes, it's the focus of this episode, but that's basically it.
When my dad died--and keep in mind I'd been no contact for six months, I'd already done most of my grieving for him!--I was so out of it I couldn't even read anything longer than a few paragraphs for multiple months. All my writing basically screeched to a halt. And Glimmer likes her mom!
BUT tbh I keep remembering someone pointing out that each season covers WAY more time than I originally assumed. Because the first time I watched this I assumed we were like, literally a week or two after the events at the end of s3. It's probably closer to several months. And that makes way more sense.
Also who else is confused as to what "princess" and "queen" even mean in this universe, like there are several princesses who are clearly in charge of their kingdoms? is just when their parents DIE that they become queens? if so wtf is wrong with Frosta's parents "lol you're eight now, time for you to be in charge of literally everything, and you'll never see us again"??
Tumblr media
okay but literally did they only ask Mermista to do the flowers as a joke bc I am literally sad for her now :(
Tumblr media
There she is!!! 😍
Also I read some (old) commentary from Nate about why her hair is flatter this season and nooooooo
Tumblr media
oh hey remember that you tied up Adora
okay do you remember this specific time you tied up Adora lolol
Tumblr media
"Don't talk about my ex-girlfriend!!! it's a very sensitive topic *sobs*"
Tumblr media
Glimmer's coronation robe is so great. I wonder if, like IRL ones, it's made out some insanely hard-to-get fur and weighs approximately five tons.
Tumblr media
The line delivery of "BOW! CALM DOWN!" made me laugh so hard I had to play it for other people and then watch it again.
Tumblr media
"Power changes people"
Not everyone is like you!!! >:(
(if anything, responsibility is more likely to change Glimmer)
Tumblr media
poor bb
Tumblr media
it's Entrapta's little naked mole rat robot!! which is also somehow also a squeaky toy??
Tumblr media
Scorpia wants SO BAD to find a way to see Catra as not a terrible person
Tumblr media
the robot didn't deserve that
Tumblr media
"Don't talk about my ex-girlfriend!!! it's a very sensitive topic *sobs*" (pt 2)
Tumblr media
Scorpia is such a cinnamon roll
Tumblr media
Adora literally only owns like three outfits. And this is her "nice dress."
Tumblr media
Bow's dad's!!
Also this is framed so much like a wedding, even the music is wedding-ish
Tumblr media
I'M NOT SAYING A DAMN THING ABOUT THIS
Tumblr media
A FRIEND
Tumblr media
okay maybe not
Tumblr media
I'm sticking with my theory that this is several months after the end of s3 which means she's been like this (unable to teleport) for a while
Tumblr media
Yeah, people have discussed this a great deal, re: grief: most people want to talk about the people they've lost, if you give them a safe time/place to do it. You don't have to avoid the subject.
Tumblr media
;_;
Tumblr media
I once again ask myself: where were you keeping the sword this whole time lolol
Tumblr media
NICE (Glimmer put the fancy lantern into the little niche for it)
Tumblr media
Aziraphale? Is that you?
Tumblr media
IT'S SO CUTE
Tumblr media
I wonder when Angella recorded this
Tumblr media
YEAH!
Tumblr media
where did you get the new outfit 2. isn't your other arm cold 3. she's fucking purring
Tumblr media
She says this the exact same way she says "Hey, Adora" and I went "EUGGGH" out loud
Tumblr media
Some people were like, "oh, her redemption arc in s5 was so rushed" and meanwhile I'm like, "I wish they'd made her deranged and mean a little longer, actually. For Reasons."
Anyway I've run out of images unless I reblog the post, SO: she yanks the little crystal thing Entrapta made out of Hordak's suit so he collapses and then taunts him with the knowledge that Horde Prime is not gonna be happy to find out he can't even subdue the Rebellion, basically puts herself in charge, end of episode
WOOOOO

Apologies for the rambles ahead Star Wars was my first proper fandom I ever wrote fanfic for, I was obsessed with it for years so I had a lot of thoughts here LMAO
So, this is never specifically mentioned because we get very little info on New Rome in general, but a part of me does wonder if they have a movie theatre. Demigods aren’t able to use phones and computers and whatever for plot convenience reasons but I don’t think that’s the case with regular non-communication technology, especially considering Leo specifically has a huge game station and sound system in his CHB room.
So there’s no reason why New Rome wouldn’t have a cinema.
No idea in what context Jason ever thought to take a break long enough to actually watch Star Wars, but I’m very fond of the idea that him and Reyna watched the movies together (1-6 because no one can convince me these kids would watch anything out of chronological order willingly)
Leo saw them 4-6 and then 1-3 because his mom told him that’s the only correct way to watch them and he still stands by this.
Piper thinks them arguing about this is stupid and that either way works which just means now they’re also arguing with her because clearly she’s incorrect (she probably decides to just come up with a completely random order to watch all the movies out of spite just to annoy them LOL)
Between the four of them, she’s also the only one who knows the TV shows exist—Leo hasn’t been keeping up with Star Wars super closely since his mom died and Reyna and Jason definitely didn’t take enough breaks to watch several seasons of TCW or Rebels (this is confusing as hell, when exactly are we in the Star Wars release timeline canonically the way time passes in pjo-verse is a mess)
Anyway, Piper literally couldn’t escape knowing the shows existed if she tried considering her dad works in the industry and probably at least knew people who worked in them even if he was never offered/never took up a role himself
If she did watch any of the shows she had a perfectly normal entirely heterosexual obsession with Ahsoka Tano and/or Sabine Wren growing up tho.
Aaaand now I’m thinking about them all watching Star Wars together. Leo hasn’t seen it in years because it was too painful to do without his mom but he deffo had a crush on Luke Skywalker and Piper teases the shit out of him over his baby queer crush being a blonde-ish sword fighter
Jason is the one who insists they sit through all of the shows tho. He learns the shows exist and gets stars in his eyes and once he realizes he’s actually allowed free time to do fun stuff with his friends? Oh they’re never gonna be free of this now. They feel so comforting and familiar and he’s probably also sort of remembering Reyna so there’s always this warm feeling in his chest when it comes to this even if he can’t tell why exactly. Leo enjoys it but is definitely not as into it as Jason is. However. Jason is excited and rambling and Leo loves that so much. I think Leo gets most excited about the droids and the ships and just the technology in general, he loves thinking through how these things could actually work (do not let the guy make a functional lightsaber that would end terribly for everyone involved)
Also thinking very fondly about Leo and Jason playing LEGO Star Wars together I think they’d have a great time
Also Jason and Reyna starting to become friends again and watching the movies together for the first time in forever…
Every time Nico and/or Leo need Will or Jason distracted for some reason they’ll just put them in a room together and bring up Star Wars. Leo jokes at one point that they could probably go on a whole quest in the meantime and their boyfriends wouldn’t even notice they left
I’m sorry why in the world does poor Jason not remember his own age or last name but know who Darth Vader is
