loot it or lose it!
ffxivwrite2023 #16: jerk a quick, sharp, sudden movement.
Lunya & @windupiceheart's Vertical. MMO Gamer AU. 272wc. ⮞ EVEYBODY SO MEAN 2 ME
"My parse is gonna be shit," Lunya grumbled as she scraped herself off the floor of the P9S arena, automatically opening her character menu to repair her barely-dented gear.
"It's okay, Lu," G'raha soothed. "I'm probably not going to break out of green this week."
"But I am!" their WAR proudly proclaimed to a tired chorus of boo!s.
Across the room, Coco was sprinting for the chests, the pom of his beret bobbing up and down as he leapt onto them before the rando SCH in their party could.
"Roll on everything!" he cheered, followed by the sound of mice and controllers clicking across four pieces of loot. One of the many perils of not having a proper static or consistent raiding time was sometimes there was a PUG member threatening to take every drop for the week, which had happened several times before and forced everyone into a FFA system.
Vertical Height rolls Need on the ➤ Ascension Necklace Coffer (IL 660). 98! Ligaya Lisuga rolls Need on the ➤ Ascension Necklace Coffer (IL 660). 75! Vertical Height obtains an ➤ Ascension Necklace Coffer (IL 660)!
"NO!" Lunya shrieked. "VERTTY, THAT WAS BIS!"
"Oh," said Verone, thief of pieces that weren't even BiS for MNK. She sounded as devastated as a woman with a very quiet and not terribly emotional voice possibly could. "I'm sorry."
"I could have gotten full right-side BiS this week if I got that," the younger girl moaned. There was a clacking as her forehead hit her mechanical keyboard. "Ouuuuuuugh, Raha, you have to buy me a snaaaaaack."
"Of course, Lu."
"Sorry," Verone repeated, sounding smaller.

—chris doesn't come back au is finally here ya'll!! not only is this the longest fic i've ever written, but it's also my 200th buddie fic!! thank you to everyone who's encouraged me on this journey; can't wait to take ya'll on this angst fest 🫶🏻
rated: e | words: 110k | ch. 14/14 | read on ao3
summary:
Christopher was gone, missing.
It wasn’t anyone’s fault, but as Eddie watched the man he loved break right in front of him, he knew Buck blamed himself, that the guilt was already eating him alive.
Eddie had the urge to be in two places at once, wanting to comfort Buck, but needing to find his son. Chris was his whole world; Buck had stepped right into it.
They didn’t find Chris that night, or the next. He was gone, swept away with the storm. Some things floated back to shore, while others, well—they were lost forever.
—or—
After the tsunami, Christopher goes missing. He doesn’t come back, at least, not right away. This is NOT mcd.
THIS FIC IS COMPLETE!

Pog Champ
Fandom: Stranger Things (Gamer/Streamer/Modern AU)
Pairing: Eddie Munson x F!Reader
Summary: You're a Twitch streamer and have been looking to collab with other streamers. You decide to message some of the streamers you watch and follow. To your surprise, some of them reply and agree for a collab. One of those people being Eddie Munson. Based off my imagine here.
A/N: I guess it's a mini series because I didn't want this to end up being a long ass oneshot! So it'll be like 3-5 parts....
Eddie Munson Masterlist
Tumblr media
Now that you've grown in your following and viewership, you've hired a team to help you work through the industry. Your manager and publicist both suggested that you start reaching out to streamers that you watch for some collaborations.
You've dm'ed many streamers and influencers. Some have declined, which was a little disheartening. But there were also some that agreed and you worked to schedule something.
One of them was EddieTheBanished aka Eddie Munson. He was big in the RPG community, playing games like World of Warcraft, Dark Souls, or even streaming his own D&D campaign with some of his friends and mods.
You've always wanted to get into D&D but didn't know anyone who played. You took this opportunity to message him on twitter:
CyberCat: hey! I've been following you for a whi-
You pause and start deleting your message and restart again:
CyberCat: hello! i'm messaging you to talk-
No no. It's giving "I wanna take a minute to talk about your car's extended warranty."
"Uuuuggghh!" You throw your head back onto your pillow, staring up at your ceiling.
Just be casual. It's no big deal...except it was because you're kind of a fan of Eddie's and you enjoy his streams.
You just decide to type out:
CyberCat: Hi Eddie! I'm a streamer and I enjoy your content. Wanna collab some time?
Send.
You toss your phone to the foot of your bed like it was on fire. Okay. You did it.
You decide to slide off your bed and head to your streaming desk in the corner of your room. Time to play some games and stream just to drown away your anxiety and anticipation.
__________________
It's Thursday which means it's Eddie's day off from streaming. However, he's still in his streaming room, but he's sitting at his desk strumming his guitar trying to figure out the next verse of the song he's working on.
He's been stumped on this song for a while. He started it weeks ago, but still hasn't finished it. Aside from streaming, music was another one of his passions. He didn't really share this side of himself too much online. But everyone who knew him in real life knew about his love for music, specifically metal and heavy rock.
Eddie lets out a long, deep sigh as he erases another line of lyrics. Frustrated, he places his guitar to the side and picks up his phone.
He taps on twitter and immediately goes to the mentions tab. He sees that he's been tagged in a tweet of a Twitch clip.
He taps on it and it's you, a streamer that he watches and follows, talking, "Yeah so I DM'ed a few streamers for collabs because my team says I should start dipping my toes into collabs." You pause and read off chat, "Who did I DM?"
You cover your mouth with a smirk, "I don't think I should say." You read chat again, "Give you some names? Okay, fuck it, I highly doubt they'd see this! So, I DM'ed Tinakitten, CinnaBrit, MayaHiga, oh, and EddieTheBanished! And tbh, guys, I was the most nervous about DM'ing Eddie. Because I really-okay I watch all of the streamers I named, but I resonate more with Eddie's content. He's cool and funny and he plays Dungeons and Dragons! I've always wanted to learn how to play. So yeah, I don't think he'll see my DM though."
The clip ends and Eddie immediately goes to his DMs. He taps on the "Verified" tab and sees that your DM is the first one at the top. He sees your message and can't help but smile. You're a fan of him and he's a bit of a fan of yours as well. So this is a little surreal for him.
Before he responds, he wants to see if you're still streaming. He pulls up your Twitch account and you have a little under three thousand viewers. You have always had a good amount of people in your community.
Your face pops up. You had just started stream and so you're just chatting with chat.
"Okay, so we have a few things on the list of what I can do for these collabs. What else do you have for me, guys, come on! Lay it on me!"
You're wearing headphones with cat ears on them, an homage to your Twitch username CyberCat.
Your eyes are skimming through the messages that are coming through and your eyes widen, "Wait, why are you guys saying 'Hi, Eddie'?! Please don't tell me he's here!" You hide your face with your hands for a moment, "Oh God. You guys sent him a clip, didn't you?!"
Eddie chuckles and decides to type in chat:
EddieTheBanished: people tagged me in your clip on twitter.
"Goddammit! Guys, I told you not to! You fucking traitors!"
Eddie snorts and types another message:
EddieTheBanished: so about this collab, what did you have in mind?
"What did I have in mind? Well, I mean, if you're down, maybe you can hold a D&D oneshot campaign with me? I've always wanted to play and I don't know anyone who's played. You're also like the number one Twitch streaming DM, in my opinion."
EddieTheBanished: I'm down. I'll reply to your twitter DM with my discord and we can flush out the details there.
"O-Okay! Sounds good!"
EddieTheBanished: have a good rest of your stream!
"Thanks so much! Have a good day!"
Before closing Twitch, he decides gift a hundred subs.
"Holy fuck! Eddie??? What the fuck! Thank you for the one hundred subs! Holy shit! You didn't have to do that!"
Your praises can't help but make Eddie feel pretty good about himself.
He simply sends a winky face in chat and then leaves.
_______________________________
You end stream feeling like you're floating. EddieTheBanished, aka Eddie Munson, agreed to collab with you and you're STOKED!
You check your DM's and see that he replied with his discord. You add him as a friend and message him:
CyberCat: so you're serious about the collab right? because if you're not, then i'm gonna be super fucking bummed.
EddieTheBanished: I am serious! Are you serious about dipping your toes in D&D.
CyberCat: absolutely. i've watched your campaign streams and it looks so fun and chaotic!
EddieTheBanished: Alright. I'm going to send you a character sheet for you to fill out. If you have questions, just let me know, or we can set up a time to call and I'll walk you through it.
CyberCat: I'll fill it out the best that I can and then hit you up when I'll need help.
EddieTheBanished: [thumbs up]
You stare at your computer in amazement. You just scored your first collab and it's with one of your favorite streamers. Holy shit!
____________________________
For the next few weeks, you and Eddie were messaging each other back and forth. It was mainly you asking questions about the stats of your character, which would be best pertaining to the species you chose, etc.
He was very kind and helpful, not to mention he was funny. When you weren't streaming, you often found yourself giggling at your phone because of something Eddie texted.
What started off as a superficial crush started to develop into a real life one, but you couldn't let yourself become delusional. Eddie is, if anything, just an acquaintance, and he would probably never see you as something more. Especially since you two never even met in person and have only been chatting for two weeks.
No. This can't become something more.
___________________________
Eddie's face appears on screen and he waves, "Sup losers!" he exclaims while Metallica plays at a low volume in the background.
"Okay, so that oneshot D&D session with CyberCat is happening today. So be on your best behavior!" he points at the camera with a stern look, "We wanna make a good impression, right?!"
PreciousBlorboBoy: if she can handle you then she can handle us.
Eddie narrows his eyes at the screen, "Blorbo, what the fuck's that supposed to mean, huh?!"
There's a bunch of KEKW, LMAOs, and peepo laugh emotes in the chat.
TearStainedGuitar: isn't she a fan of yours? so she should know how we are!
"Regardless! I wanna make sure she has a good experience here, okay?! This is her first collab as a streamer so it's a big deal. Plus...she's cool. So we have to be cool too."
MysticBiter: dude is so stressed about this collab
"I'm not stressed! I just wanna make sure CyberCat's first collab stream is good!"
PreciousBlorboBoy: guys he's blushing so hard.
"I'M NOT BLUSHING!"
He hears the familiar ding from Discord letting him know that you joined the call.
"Who's blushing?" you ask.
"No one! No one's blushing!" He quickly replies.
You chuckle, "Okaaaay?"
He nervously clears his throat, "SO you wanna introduce yourself to my chat while I set this up?"
"Sure!" You clear your throat and begin the introduction, "Hi everyone! I'm CyberCat. You can call me Cat or Y/N. I also stream on Twitch. I'm a variety gamer and I like to play games like Fortnite, Animal Crossing, Infinity Nikki, Valorant, stuff like that. Other than gaming, I love blind boxes, reading, going to cafes, and thrifting! Uuuuhhh, was there anything else you wanted me to say, Eddie?"
"I'm still setting up the screenshare sooo, uh, tell us what you're currently reading?"
"...I don't think I should say."
Eddie pauses and smirks, "Is it fairy porn?"
"HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE FAIRY PORN?!"
Chat is flooded with "?????", "HUUUUUH?" and "AYO??"
He cackles, "I've seen TikToks, I know that some of you book girls are into freaky stuff."
"TO BE FAIR, I don't explicitly read fairy porn...I read other stuff like-"
"Alien porn?" Eddie finishes with a snicker.
"No! Oh my God. Stop it!"
"Relax, Cat. I'm just messing with you. You ready for this?"
"Yeah! Let's do this!"
______________________
Your POV
"Hello hello!" you wave at your camera, "You guys ready for my first ever collab stream?"
Your chat fills with emotes of chibi you cheering and smiling.
"Good! I'm glad! So, this goes without saying that we need to make a good impression. So if you chat hop, don't be weird or mean. Gotta make a good impression with Eddie and his community. Got it?"
EchoKnight: you nervous?
"Kinda! I mean, Eddie and I have been messaging each other on the side. He helped me create my character and answered all my questions. Oh God, I was being SO annoying to him. Just bombarding him with questions! But he was always so nice and understanding, so I don't feel as nervous as I felt when I first asked him to collab with me."
ZeniPenny: is it weird since you'd watch him on twitch and now you're collabing?
"Not really? I mean, I've gotten to know him more than like just what he's showed and talked about on stream. So that's cool. Anyway, it's getting close to the start time so I'm gonna hop into the Discord call."
"-BLUSHING!"
Your brows furrow, "Who's blushing?" you ask.
"No one! No one's blushing!" He quickly replies.
You chuckle, "Okaaaay?" You click around, setting up the video call on Discord. You have a duel camera setup. One on your face and one pointing down at your desk, focusing on your deskmat and the various dice.
He nervously clears his throat, "SO you wanna introduce yourself to my chat while I set this up?"
"Sure!" You clear your throat, sitting up in your chair more, staring at the screen, "Hi everyone! I'm CyberCat. You can call me Cat or Y/N. I also stream on Twitch. I'm a variety gamer and I like to play games like Fortnite, Animal Crossing, Infinity Nikki, Valorant, stuff like that. Other than gaming, I love blind boxes, reading, going to cafes, and thrifting! Uuuuhhh, was there anything else you wanted me to say, Eddie?"
"I'm still setting up the screenshare sooo, uh, tell us what you're currently reading?"
You pause, rolling you lips inward, "...I don't think I should say."
Eddie asks, "Is it fairy porn?"
You slam your hands on your desk and exclaim into your mic, "HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE FAIRY PORN?!"
Your chat floods with question marks, LMAOs, and a blushing peepo emote.
Eddie cackles in response, "I've seen TikToks, I know that some of you book girls are into freaky stuff."
You shake your head, "TO BE FAIR, I don't explicitly read fairy porn...I read other stuff like-"
"Alien porn?" Eddie finishes with a snicker.
"No!" you run your hands down your face, "Oh my God. Stop it!" you could feel your cheeks heating up in embarrassment.
ZeniPenny: ...i'm getting secondhand embarrassment
You mute yourself on Discord to scold chat, "Chat, shut the fuck up! We're not bringing this up ever!"
You hear Eddie, "Relax, Cat. I'm just messing with you. You ready for this?"
You unmute yourself to respond, "Yeah! Let's do this!"

Duo AU; Pro Gamer Iso x Violinist!Reader (Part 1)
Tumblr media
I check the iso x reader tag EVERYDAY. FOR ISO CONTENT. Sadly, Iso isn't that popular. Sigh. Guess I'll do it myself.
AU inspired by those public pianist trends on yt and my Iso x OC ship as always. Along with that one toxic pro gamer Iso x reader on here, i fking love that au sm. (Hes not toxic in this one tho lol)
Pro Valorant player Zhao Yu, better known by his internet name "Dead Lilac" is a mechanically gifted one-trick main whose name is famous all over the gaming community.
Professional Violinist "Reader", famous for their musical talent and prodigal like abilities, having climbed up the ranks and becoming renowed in the music community and on social media.
Iso finishes up a stream with a sigh, the ratio of wins to losses was bad today, how disappointing. Zhao Yu lays in bed, taking a brief moment of rest before he continued on with his day.
His roommate Omen is playing with the cat when he goes to the kitchen to get something to eat, they talk for a bit, and the cat starts purring at his feet. He picks it up and just does a stare off with the thing while it paws at his face (without claws), and blows a rasberry. Omen chuckles.
Omen brings up the fact that his friends are going out for an outting later, Zhao Yu decides to get ready. He wears his signature hoodie ofc.
Jamie, Sunwoo, Tala, Tayane, and Mateo come along. Sadly, Ryo couldn't come. He was too busy with his drift practice or whatever. Tala says her brother was just too lazy to come.
They all meet up at the mall where they go shopping and do whatever, discussing random whatnots and getting up to antics. And then they find a piano in public and Jamie tells Zhao Yu to play something, they'll record it and post it online because why not? He's really good at playing it too.
Zhao Yu decides to humor them and gets on the piano, trying to think of a piece to play before he starts.
His fingers cross the keys with grace and practiced ease, playing a romantic classical version of a popular song. Zhao Yu finds himself lost in the music piece as strangers began turning heads and pausing in their step. He can feel his friends' eyes on him as Phoenix' camera records him, and he finds himself becoming more confident with each note he plays.
Unbeknowst to him, as he was nearing the chorus, one stranger came up and opened a peculiar shaped bag, pulling out a violin out of it. The moment Zhao Yu plays the chorus note, a new instrument joined him.
He almost paused, but his fingers kept playing. Somehow, he and the violinist were perfectly in sync. He turned his head without lifting his fingers, and he see's the stranger playing the instrument, and he's awed by their ability.
More people crowd around as they watch the duet, enchanted by the melody and harmony while Jamie continues recording. Zhao Yu and the stranger play until the end of the song. When they finished, the whole crowd applauded and cheered. It sort of reminded Zhao Yu of the music recitals he did when he was younger.
He gets off the piano and approaches his duet, complimenting them on their skill and giving his name, which the stranger responded with their own.
Reader and Zhao Yu chat about the piece they just played, and Jamie and Mateo run in with the video, showing it to both of them. It's then that Zhao Yu saw Reader passing by before they decided to play, and he's amazed at how easily they synced up to him without missing a note.
Mateo then says that he was a fan of Reader which promptly confused Zhao Yu. Was Reader someone famous? Jamie asked for permission to post the video which Reader granted without issue.
They continued talking for a moment up until Reader said that they had an appointment to get to and excused themself.
By the time that was over, Zhao Yu's friend group went nuts. Apparently having held themselves back from "ruining his chances", whatever that meant. Jamie and Mateo however couldn't hold themselves which is why they approached. Sunwoo proceeded to shake him uncontrollably for not getting Reader's number. When he asked why he needed it, Tala called him a "lonely bastard".
He asks if they knew her since Mateo did, and he was told that Reader was a social media influencer known for their violin talent.
Jamie sent the video to Zhao Yu's editor and they continued on with their hangout. Though, the duet still played on the back of his mind throughtout.
Timeskip to later that night, Zhao Yu realized that maybe he should have gotten Reader's number, and also why Tala called him lonely. Omen watched the video too and acknowledged Reader's social media presence which made Zhao Yu wonder just how popular they were if even his roommate knew about them.
The next day, Iso's editor had the video ready and posted. And it was doing numbers.
As it turns out, a duet between a pro gramer and a famous violinist was bound to go viral and become so popular that it was trending on every platform.
Both to his confusion and surprise, his fans went crazy with the shipping. He knew what it was only because his online group and team engaged in such antics. Although he wasn't sure how Reader would react. He only just recently followed them on their socials and was surprised to find out that they were already a follower.
His twitch chat wouldn't shut up about the duet and he recounted the story of how that moment came to be. And they went haywire. Zhao Yu found ship edits of him and Reader from the duet video and things were getting out of hand. He was worried of how this would affect them considering they weren't part of this side of the community, much less even in this community.
He found a response from Reader regarding the duet, and to his relief it was mostly positive. They even addressed a part of the response directly to him, asking if they should record an official one if he wanted to.
Now, Zhao Yu was open to collabs. But for some reason, this one had him staring at his screen for minutes as the type bar blinked in the chat box, it was Reader's instagram.
He decided that it wouldn't hurt to add some music content into his gaming content and wanted to reach out to Reader to inquire about that collab idea they proposed. Except... he was nervous.
Why was he though? It made no sense. Zhao Yu didn't get nervous, so why was he? He's done this dozens of times, so why was it any different now?
Mustering up all the courage he could, he typed a few letters and sent the message without leaving room to think it over.
On Reader's phone, a notification popped up from instagram messages. They opened it up, it was from Iso?!
"Hey" they read.
Yknow, this has been sitting in my drafts for 3 weeks. Finally glad i got this out even if some parts are uncohseive

I realized having 1000 CCCC AUs with every guy having nicknames is really confusing so here's my simplified list of who everybody is and all my AUs!
(No pictures included this time if you need visuals feel free to ask but I also tag my AUs when I post about them so checking my acc should also work!)
Encore:
Whole turns his thirds into puppets:
Whole: Snare
Mind: King
Heart: Dove
Soul: Wander
Post Encore:
Puppets turn back into humans and get over their trauma together!
Whole: Snare
Mind: King
Heart: Paladin/Pal
Soul: Piper
Encore Swap:
Since creation there's been the idea that Encore is a secret swap AU. King gets called a Whole often. Help him!
Whole -> Soul: Icarus
Mind -> Whole: Noodle
Heart -> Mind: Artificer
Soul -> Heart: Stasis
Jest [Encore]:
My friend Oswin has a silly guy named Buttercup and he wanted to put that guy in Encore. They are all clown themed and play little games to earn their memories back!
Whole: Salem
Mind: Majesty
Heart: Kea
Soul: Amble
Bad End Encore [Also known as BET] :
Me and Rosy collab to ruin the Encores happiness.
Whole: Ivory
Mind: Cassiopeia/Cassi
Heart: Rouge
Soul: Poet/Piper (He's dead so it doesn't matter)
Miracle AU:
Made before Encore. I wanted a CCCC AU but had no ideas so I slapped them into my Marble Hornets AU.
Whole: Source
Mind: [Doesn't have a name :/]
Heart: Serene
Soul?: Ardor
Choir:
Hmsw are biblically accurate angels.
Whole: Seraph
Mind: Ruler
Heart: Cherub
Soul: Throne
[Creative ik]
Gamer AU:
When a new loop begins and Heart and Mind start fighting Soul tosses them into whatever video game he's into at the moment to try and make them get along.
This is a collab AU now that I share with Oswin, Ledge, and Francey. While the AU was my idea originally the only guy that's technically mine is Heart, who goes by Mono.
Mall AU:
Another collab AU. HMS live in a dying mall and their only customer is Whole.
I again only have the Heart of this AU, whos name is Murid. This AU is shared with Nova and Alex.
Marble Hornets AU:
The last AU for this list and is another collab with Andy and Rosy. It's exactly what is seems like, HMSW but in Marble Hornets.

AUs/Headcanon Projects
Trollhunters AU Masterpost (because it would be a pain in the ass to list them all)
Starborne Kingdom of Dianite :: My MCYT Starborne AU! Builds off Jordan's origins smp lore, continuing the story (since he fucking won't /lh /j) and adding worldbuilding to the realm of the starborne (in my headcanon, its a version of the Aether!) How the Aether and the cast works comes off a tidbit from non est ad astra (see below) so we got two tiem reesters + hermits + lifers and the canon OSMP cast
Masterpost | AU Tag
Tales of Aitheaca/Gays on a Boat :: Mianite Post-canon/post-Isles fanstory! Gays on a Boat follows tiem reester after season 2 and goes up through Isles (following everyone else but tom and jordan). Tales of Aitheaca picks up where Isles leaves off (if i pretend like the end of Isles doesn't exist it can't hurt me) and takes them to another relative universe in pursuit of a multiversal anomaly, where ultimate balance rules. also the boat is a dimension traveller and to everyone's shock not the only one
Gays on a Boat | Tales of Aitheaca
Mianite Godswap :: Joke AU I made during Octobernite, but also has a bit of story tied to it. mostly an excuse to make syndisparklez between a dianitee and mianitee because that concept is fascinating to me
Mianite x Life Series :: Fan season of the Life Series that builds off a funny little game that Ianite, Dianite and the Watchers play with their casts and swap them around, putting the lifers in a blank slate world of Mianite S1 with the objective of being the last one standing, and Jordan and Tom in a hardcore world where of they die, the world dies
Death’s Scale of Justice :: Headcanon for cEmeraldduo in the Mianite universe! :D Inspired by when Philza showed up at Jordan’s witch hut, Phil is a priest for Ruxomar Ianite and former friend of Spark lookin for his goddess when he disappears. Also includes the backstory for cTechno where he unearths Bellinite, the god of anarchy, revenge and blind vengeance (aka the Blood God) from the depths of the S1 World
HC10: Upon the Mountain of Magic :: WIP, expansion and theory on the story behind Magic Mountain in Hermitcraft season 10 using Joel's temple to Lizzie and Mumbo's mined lab lore as a baseline. no tag yet but is in reference to the mosaic of lizzie and jim on art blog + canary in the iron mine painting
Original Projects
non est ad astra, mollis e terra via :: Multiverse lore dev, work in this is used mostly in reference to MCYT fanon, but also is a project i'm using for some OC stuff (includes worldbuilding for my Mianite RPG characters Ophi and Aurelia, and concepts for the Nightmare Spectrum)
For Good Measure :: Story of my stream sona, Sir Monty Jones aka where he was prior to becoming the wanderer of the outerverse. Takes place prior to Arcadia of Avalon and is basically monty python but if they were my ocs and silly knights and also minecraft
Arcadia of Avalon :: Original Arthurian retelling but i don't gaf I just think knights deserve to be stupid, gay and full of angst as the gods intended. Mostly an excuse to write my rarepairs and do some funky worldbuilding where the land of King Arthur is a war over the power of creation. i can't explain it better than that but trust me its a good one
Wide Awake in the Witching Hour :: Current set of lore and story for my sona Sir Monty Jones. Continues where For Good Measure leaves off and is, relatively time wise, lines up to the current timeline of HC10 and the Mianite RPG

what's deltapack AU tell me everything or send a link to a masterpost if u have one :> I love love love love AUs! do you have any drawings of your characters a s well?
OH BOY WELL. THERE IS A LOT. AND A LOT OF MY POSTS TALKING ABOUT IT... ARE KINDA OLD?? BUT!!
heres my two latest asks answered abt dpau that are good starts!!
1) the """basics""""... despite the length it is the starting stuff you need to know. just overexplained
2) here, links to post number 1 and talks about the basic lore for blank. brief-ish, only goes on more detail for some things, but skips over certain important scenes and events (but not like.. the core ones lol. and cliffhanger ending-ish i guess)
i also reccommend going through my dpau/datapack au tag on art fight, it has all my characters for this au there. they have some art there and descriptions on basic info on them too! I ALSO HIGHLY RECCOMMEND IT, BECAUSE I WILL DISCUSS CHARACTERS WHO I HAVE NOT DISCUSSED ON ANY OF THESE BEFORE!!! so check it out to see who's who.
THIS IS OLD, SOME OF IT NEEDS UPDATING, BUT MOST OF IT STILL STANDS UP!! some basic terms used in dpau and such from my old unfinished info google doc about dpau!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and if i feel less anxious, i may share some fanfic chapters i have written for this. there's 1/2 i may share, which are connected. specifically about spamton Accidental Acid Nacho Dip and his escape from the mansion and some character drama ! i want to rewrite it because i made spectre too dramatic there, i think, and the background swatchlings get... very confusing. but it's the most well written one, i think. i have some stuff on blank's incident and argument with berry, but i cringe while reading it so... i'll see. i may also share any other notes and unfinished things and whatever if you'd like. i'll see what's in a ok-with-sharing stage
more random stuff for you!
blank's playlist ! i say it's still a work in progress - but i havent updated it in a long while.
divided into two parts, addiblank and corrupted blank. addiblank is my nickname for blank before his corruption.
some other characters also have playlists, but they are less developed
RANDOM FUN FACTS!!
most of the characters are named by one of my friends who helped with ideas and things for the au.
there's several czech pun names, including berry's middle name. berry b addison... they don't like sharing their whole middle name.
blank's voiceclaim is bo burnham, and i realized the two accidentally had similarities, so i purposefully added some quirks to blank to make him a bit more like bo as an inspiration.
tired swatchling is based on a roblox voicechat roleplay with my friends - i played as a... well. tired swatchling who's number one thing is hating rouxls kaard.
yes, blank does have rats in his hair. the cursorats! my own species i made !they're the rats to maice's...mice. they're based on gamer rgb glowing mice. the names of his pet cursorats are, pantaloonie, remy, the one (and only) and spaghetti
pantaloonie he can cook
maddison is heavily and i mean heavily based on my personality, if you added a bit of jerma. he is a canonical twitch streamer
blank and berry are also based on me, but also my best friend and our dynamic we had/have growing up! we've known each other since we were like..3 years old. we go way back and have seen each other in different stages of life like this, and certain periods just... inspired these two characters. and just. me. blank is a representation of me with people i trust, and being heavily indulgent in the things i like... berry is the quiet me around people i don't trust, and the character who struggles with a lot of the same social struggles i have as a neurodivergent person. all of these characters are a bit nd i can not write normal characters. sorry.
tired swatchling's and mocha's parents are two swatchling moms, chroma and aroma! i need to redesign aroma a bit, and make "modern" designs for them, since their current designs are them while younger!! these ladies have aged a little bit since - despite darkners lack of aging visibly after they become full grown adults.
spectre's name is not pronounced like specter! it's pronounced like spec-tray. they were my first swatchling oc, too, and for self indulgence they feature a spade on the back of their suit - considering that's my symbol i've adopted for several reasons, deltarune being one of them. we go way back.
swatchlings have uv light vision!! they also have uv light markings only other swatchlings can see!! they have a event/holiday where they paint on their bodies where their invisible markings are to celebrate their differences! literally! each swatchling has a totally unique marking, that is not determined by anything! it's generated randomly upon hatching. (grows in like a day or two after hatching.) this is how swatchlings differentiate each other even if they may otherwise look the same! they also all like being unique, using make up and cool hair styles and outfits... a luxury working specific datapack swatchlings may not have - so they got these markings, since nobody else can see 'em!
clambert has a pet tasque named perci. she has a complicated, long name but i keep forgetting it. and i keep forgetting to save it. im not asking my friend to remind me agian currently it is lost in like a year worth of instagram dm scrolling and i dont even go there anymore.
blank's design is inspired by ena!
hash was originally just a named background character... that appeared in a little thing i wrote. just like, an possible dpau intro? it made sense for me to use a regular visitor character, and i gave them a name... but my friends loved them a lot so... hash is an oc now! they are also inspired by almond cookie. they are a maskless swatchling, too
also, my other maskless swatchling oc, tag, was a concept for a loong time before i finished her design. i was stuck on the name.. but... tag was an obvious choice. since yknow. hash. tag. lmao
brodi adobi and his company is based on adobe, obviously. his design is inspired by portal colors, and his voice claim is jave johnson. he hates lemons. also, he knows almost nothing about art, he just sells art supply shit. he goes on a lot of talk shows.
malina is an lightner oc, that i have had since before deltarune chapter 2. hell, she was actually an undertale oc first, made around 2020, as i have realized i never had a proper undertale oc.... i really like nicecream guy, so i made him a sister character! i then decided to make her a deltarune character with chapter 2, as she now fit in there way better! she has her own story- HOWEVER. The story of the main cast is... very seperated from the main story of DPAU. She follows just the main cast, but she does exist in DPAU and my headcanons to her story apply! she's best friends with sweet cap'n cakes! and scratch. because why wouldn't i put my self insert there
oh yeah, scratch is my deltarune sona and basically self insert!! they are the fourth member of sweet cap'n cakes. they are based on a soundboard and a karaoke machine! they were also inspired by napster and hatsune miku, and gamer headphones with cat ears. they are also very self indulgent with my color choices. they're me, but a silly music robot who makes ytps on the spot, and is just silly goofy 24/7 without the problems real me has
i did write a short chapter thingy with malina!! i have like... entire scenes thought out for her how she follows along with the gang in the main game. this... slipped out of my head mostly, id have to read my old notes. she also has a snowgrave route!! and that also splits into like.. 2 "endings" and both are! not good! so no arms ?
malina is also a florist! and unlike me she enjoys doing it! i regret my school choice and this is a random cry for help! she helps out asgore at his store. also, some of the experiences she talks about kris with, and some little experiences i have made up for them, kris, and noelle and their whole lil' gang while they were kids are based on some stuff i did as a kid myself
snooper isn't an important character in dpau, he just exists there, but i love this beast. his hair is the twitter logo, he says l+ratio unironically, and his speech pattern is inspired by quagsire in from PMD. he has his own page on my website! not just that, but a whole mystery fun hunt! if you go there you can even get his petz mod of himself :D
blank also has corrupted speech, similar to spamton. just.. more fucke.d no advertising, just fucked. imagine a walking glitchy ytp. been compared to withered chica's voice. he can also make static noises and his voice can change tones as well. he also quotes movies and past experiences which will sound exactly the same as they did before. he's like a fucked up radio. his speech is very annoying to write at times, but here's some old examples back before i gave up on adding all the effects and jumbles while rping. msot of the time he is like... audible just glitchy. when extremely emotional his voice breaks more. OK. NOW TO THE EXAMPLES.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
icon censored because i hate the art. also blank uses he/they pronouns, but he/him is his primary. back then i used they/them on him more. he is sososoosos fucked up <333333
sometimes he just does this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
oh yeah did i tell you he almost constantly oozes goop from his mouth and eyes? my man's fucked up
maddison canonically plays fortnite and im leaving you at that. more facts later. i set a reminder to do something an hour ago and i still havent done it . i told you i can talk about this au for long

#writtenbythesehands → a collective traumagenic system writing blog.
Hello hello! You can call me ( or us ) Quill, Bas or Q. This blog is designed with the purpose to exist as a sort of writing exhibit, a place to put down mini ideas, share the concepts we're thinking about, or simply to throw down the AUs that we're thinking about or developing.
Based on the content that we usually write, we're going to warn that this is an 18+ blog, however things will be tagged according to their warnings and proper labels, so any minors engaging - do so cautiously.
𝔀𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓭𝓸𝓮𝓼 𝓶𝓮𝓶𝓸𝓻𝔂 𝓮𝓷𝓭 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮 𝓫𝓮𝓰𝓲𝓷?
Some things about me . . .
Our system have over 30 alters from a variety of sources. Not all of them will write or share here, but you can expect to hear from a few.
I have several AUs and write a lot of different content, from fantasy, modern, historical fantasy, canon lore from different fandoms, canon divergences, and more.
I'm disabled, though I do work a part time job that keeps me ( and all of us ) pretty busy most of the time. We post as we can.
I try my best to keep a routine and set schedule, but alas I am auDHD, and therefore struggle with sporadic interest changes, ideas shifting, or intense lines of thought that can turn into hyper-fixations or fizzle out the next day.
I'm queer, so a lot of that reflects in the characters I ( or we ) write. If you don't like that, don't engage with it. This also goes to include relationships we depict these characters in. CC! boundaries for things like MCYT don't exist on this blog. They'll never see this and on the off chance they do? They'll be encouraged not to read.
I'm a gamer at heart, and you'll find a lot of my work either inspired by some of these core games; The Elder Scrolls ( Skyrim ), Dragon Age, Red Dead Redemption, Stardew Valley, and more.
General DLDR criteria. If you see something you don't like, do not continue to read it. That will be your own fault at that point.
I don't engage in drama or discourse. I refuse to take part in it, and you'll end up blocked if you can't respect that.
Some re-occurring characters you'll see on this blog . . .
MCYT → Technoblade, The_Eret, TinaKitten, WilburSoot (not associated with the CC!), Tommyinnit, Cellbit, FitMC, Jaiden, Mikethelink, Badboyhalo, Missasinfonia, Tubbo_, some of the eggs, and a variety of others.
As our focus tends to stay pretty fixated on the MCYT fandom as a whole, these are the primary characters you'll find written here.
𝓘 𝓪𝓶 𝓽𝓸𝓸 𝓯𝓾𝓵𝓵 𝓸𝓯 𝓵𝓲𝓯𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓮 𝓱𝓪𝓵𝓯 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓭.
Other fandoms you can find here . . .
Legend of Zelda (BOTW/TOTK), House of the Dragon, Game of Thrones, RWBY, Stardew Valley, and more.

real winners quit!
ffxivwrite2022 #03: temper a person's state of mind seen in terms of their being angry or calm.
alphinaud & lunya, with alisaie. appearances and mentions of other scions + @fistsoflightning's zaya, @verbroil's rjoli, @nuclearanomaly's ninira, and @whitherliliesbloom's illya. mmo gamer au. 1120wc. ⮞ "so," alphinaud said thinly as alisaie once again dropped an aoe on him, "this is the fabled tilted towers."
"Congratulations, little man," was the first thing Alphinaud heard as he joined the one other person sitting in the FC's voice chat. Lunya's smug grin was audible in each word. "You've been chosen for «SCION»'s P5S blind prog tonight! And by tonight, I mean in 30 minutes."
"As a healer," Alphinaud sighed.
"As a healer!" Lunya cheerily confirmed. "How was class?"
Exhausting. Why did the new Savage tier have to drop in the middle of the school week anyway, and on the day he had lab with his professor from hell? Why did he even choose general zoology as an elective course anyway when he was a med student?! His only answer for Lunya was a long groan that got her cooing sympathetically.
The idea of raid night wasn't all that promising either—Alphinaud loved his FC. He really did. They had a great dynamic and ran every content available in their favourite MMORPG and even grouped up to play games outside of it. But the Scions of the Seventh Dawn was also comprised mostly of players with the full capability to be hardcore but fucked around so much in prog that they were ultimately a casual group. Depending on who else Lunya pulled for prog this night was either going to be smooth or traumatic.
"Let's see… we've got me and Raha, of course." A no-brainer. The FC's favourite and-they-were-roommates! came as a pair more often than not these days, especially since it was Lunya who introduced G'raha to the game. "Raha's running Paladin so I'm getting Thancred to MT."
Oh, thank goodness, Alphinaud heard G'raha say somewhere else in the room through Lunya's mic, causing Lunya to giggle.
"Urianger and Rjoli are on a date so your co-healer's gonna be Shtola today."
Y'shtola started maining Black Mage during the last expac after a seven year streak of playing White Mage and White Mage only, but he hadn't realized she was keeping WHM geared up too. Skeptical, Alphinaud asked, "Really? What's her ilevel?"
"600. Good luck."
The night was getting more and more stressful by the minute.
Alphinaud breathed in deeply. "Okay. Who's the magic DPS?"
"Thaaaaaaat would be Alisaie."
Oh, gods have mercy.
Strictly speaking, it wasn't mandatory to invite him and his sister to everything together—they were twins, but their own separate people. It mostly happened because their schedules lined up so they were online at the same time, save for days Alisaie had fencing practice or Alphinaud had debate club. He didn't have an issue with it, seriously, because just like he loved his FC, Alphinaud loved his sister. He really, truly did. Really!
"Why not Liya?" Alphinaud asked a little desperately. "Or Ninira?"
"Uh, Kaye's static already scooped up Liya," Lunya said, her tone clearly suggesting she was thinking I thought you knew this? Fake Illya stan. "And Estinien invited Nini but she ate too many boozy chocolates at Book Club today and is suuuuuuuuper messed up right now. In the drunk way. So she's napping it off."
"I… didn't think it was possible to consume the amount of those things you'd need to get drunk before you got sick from the chocolate."
"I thought so too, but, well, it's Ninira," Lunya could only say fondly, if not a little disturbedly. "Anyway, our melee DPS for the night are Estinien and Zaya. You're welcome."
Estinien, Thancred, Y'shtola.... They were all good at keeping things in line, though Thancred was prone to getting swept up in Zaya's shenanigans (generally involving trying to squeeze as much uptime for them as they could), and Lunya's gremlinbility skyrocketed when her pseudo-sibling was around. G'raha was normally composed but everyone knew that if Lunya told him to jump into the death wall at 0.5% enrage he would do it. But while prone to silliness, Lunya loved the thrill of winning more than anyone else and knew how to behave herself during Savage raids.
No. The issue was ultimately going to be Alisaie. Alisaie, who Fantasia'd into a Galka just so she could block his view of his significantly shorter Hume so he couldn't see if he was properly in the safe spot for the last part of last expansion's EX3. Alisaie, who thought Estinien wasn't cool. Alisaie, who stole his pants drop for giggles two raid tiers ago when she already had hers. Alisaie, who caused more wipes than she saved. Alisaie, who used her RDM LB3 specifically to maul the whole party during Storm's Crown just last week.
Alphinaud rubbed his temples.
Tumblr media
Girl Power, Alisaie's Galka, sprinted towards his body as the others scrambled across the arena in a blind attempt to survive Devour, sliding right on top of him and immediately leaning back on an invisible wall.
Using the emote was an innocuous action, but Alphinaud knew she had taken a ride through the dark side lately. Paywalled assets stolen from other games, "upscaled" textures run through waifu2x, the modifying of the dev team's hard work and the stomping on other's loving character designs, running illegal plugins that would give her an advantage over others… No, he knew what she was doing.
"Alisaie," Alphinaud said, hand trembling around his gamer mouse. "Please stop Fortnite dancing on my corpse."
"Oops." She was not one bit sorry even as the Proto-Carbuncle took a loving bite out of her head and she joined him on the floor. "I meant to hit Verraise."
"Wait, wait, wait," Lunya cut in, surprisingly not yet dead as she just barely En Avant'd out of the last AoE. "Me too!"
To Alphinaud's horror, her Tarutaru sprinted over to both dead bodies on the floor and leaned against an invisible wall as she stood on them. Zaya wheezed a breathy chuckle.
"Mitigate," Y'shtola intoned over the chaos, not that it would matter with no shields and her piddly i600 heals. Thancred and G'raha overlapped Reprisals.
RAGEQUITTING IS CRINGE, Alphinaud reminded himself. ESTINIEN WOULD NEVER RAGEQUIT. This was a lie, of course, because Estinien did in fact ragequit from E8S one time when Ysayle refused to stop spinning the boss and he kept dropping his combos from missing positionals. He still hadn't forgiven her for it to this day, though they changed the positional requirement with the current expansion.
If it sucks, hit da bricks, Estinien advised Alphinaud after everyone left so they could pick him up again and reinstance. Or at least, he thought that's what Estinien said, but it was hard to tell at the time because Estinien's cat Orn Khai had crawled into his lap and started screaming for dinner as he was saying it.
Alphinaud opened the Duty menu, and just this once, he allowed his cursor to drift to the Abandon Duty button.

hi there!! SO @lunarcrown passed this ask on to me to elaborate a bit on our angsty tango ‘hels to pay’ au! i’m gonna be helping her out w answering some more story-driven asks 💪 (backstory comic can be found here)
in this au, tango is a blaze hybrid originally from hels. during his time in hels, he was captured and experimented on by a scientific lab called hels tek. they slapped ‘tek’ onto his name for branding purposes, he wasn’t born with it (you’ll notice tango’s irl gamer tag JUST says ‘Tango’). they figured out how to farm blaze rods from him, and that’s where he spent a lot of time before escaping to hermitcraft (which i’m hoping to give more detail on in a future oneshot 👀)
from that point on, everything else proceeds as normal! impulse and zedaph are unchanged by this au, but we haven’t really decided on designs for them (i know zed is often a sheep hybrid, and there’s some good demon!impulse out there). tango goes through the hermitcraft seasons keeping his hels past a secret, even after the life series starts and he becomes soulmates with jimmy in double life (who is still a sheriff in empires s2 but not anywhere else i don’t think?)
in any case, the majority of our story is going to take place during the events of double life! (so, pre-sheriff jimmy) except it’s not strictly canon? we’ve been playing really fast and loose w the timeline, like the double lifers are just hanging out being domestic indefinitely instead of trying to kill each other HAH it’s like if you took the first episode of the double life series and then hit a PAUSE button so the story didn’t progress after that point
that’s the best way i can describe it anyway, and in either case the actual canon plot of double life isn’t that important to this au. the things we’ve got coming up for tango at this point are totally different and, in some ways, way worse 😈 thanks so much for the interest, hopefully that clears up the timeline of the au for ya!

Fun & Games (Forrest Bondurant x Reader, Modern AU)
Tumblr media
(Credits for the images in the moodboard go to their respective owners)
Genre: Romance, Humour, Modern AU
Pairing: Business Analyst!Forrest Bondurant x IT Trainee Fem!Reader
Word Count: 3.3K
Warnings: tooth-rotting fluff, a sprinkle of awkward romance (well, it’s rather just Forrest being a mess), very little swearing, Forrest being a gentleman, unrequited crush/love/lust (or is it?), responsible drinking, Jack being on the short end of things
Summary: Everyone has a hidden side to them. But on a Friday afternoon at the office, Forrest Bondurant, the normally stoic and feared business analyst reveals a side to him no one had expected. 
Least of all a certain trainee.
And everything is fun and games, even if eventually feelings get involved.
Tag list: @buttercup32sstuff @liliac-dreamer @vir-tual​ @potter-solomons @ilovemanypeople @zablife​ @hecatemoon87​​ @alikaheroes
Monster Masterlist / TH Masterlist
Tumblr media
Friday afternoons at the office are for sharing drinks and playing games. Then again, what else can you expect when you’re surrounded by geeks?
All tables in the cafeteria are occupied, more and more colleagues either leaving their office or coming in through the front door. The small room is filled with chatter, pieces of conversations about various topics blending into each other to the degree you occasionally can make out a single word.
Unsurprisingly, the Nintendo Switch is swiftly turned on and taken into use to organise an informal Mario Kart tournament. In less than a minute, the first two contenders have already stepped up and taken their places at the start line of Toad Harbor. Sipping on a can of beer or soft drink, we watch them, and afterwards each other, going head to head like we’re in a stadium watching the Olympic Games. 
After a disastrous loss on the Royal Raceway playing Lemmy, Gary holds out the controller to me. “Fancy a round, Y/N?”
“Sure, why not?” I shrug, hop off my seat and walk around the table to take the controller from his hand.
Now, everyone gets to pick their own opponent but no one goes twice in a row. The latter doesn’t matter, but the first certainly does since there’s one person in the office who’s sparked my interest ever since we met.
The grumpy business analyst who’s working even now, tucked away in the corner of the sofa. 
It’s Friday, basically the weekend! Even you deserve and need a break.
Mentally crossing my fingers, I pick up Charlie’s controller as well and hold it out to the bear-like man still busily typing away on his laptop. “Play Mario Kart with me, Forrest?”
He peers over the edge of the screen at me, the blue flames of annoyance calming the moment we lock eyes. Features softened, he shakes his head. “I ain’t gamin’.”
“Aw, come on. Don’t be a spoilsport and do the lady a favour,” Howard, our low-code trainer and his brother, cuts in. “Or I will.”
“I’ll play,” Jack intercepts, stepping away from the people he’s talking to and drinking beer with. “If you’d like, of course.”
I hold out one of the controllers, glad the data analist wants to compete. Truth be told, he’s my second choice of company I’ll happily settle for. “Sure, bring it on.”
Behind me, muttered words end in a grunt.
“What was that?” Howard asks. “What’s wrong, grumpy?”
“I’ll play the next round,” Forrest grumbles. He shuts his laptop, puts it in the leather bag at his feet, crosses his arms, and sits a little bit more upright.
“I promise I’ll go easy on you.” I smile at him, a warm feeling spreading throughout when he averts his gaze. Though his scruffy stubble hides most of it, his cheeks are rosy.
“What about me?” my opponent asks, feigning indignance. 
I turn back to him, feeling uncharacteristically brash. “You’ve been here longer than me. I’d expect you to have become an expert by now, Jack. After all, you’re a data analyst. Surely the data has told you how to win.”
A bright smile tugs at the corners of his lips the moment I mention his name. “Bold of you to assume.”
“What? Am I wrong? Aren’t you a gamer?”
“Tell her about the Bloodborn tattoo you got recently. Or how about the new Pokémon you caught and nearly yelled me out of my bed for last night,” Howard chimes in.
Jack hunches his shoulders and throws his brother a poisonous look. “Shut up.”
‘‘Which one did you catch?’’ Though I’ve only recently gotten back into games and especially Pokémon, I’m still as eager to talk about them as I used to be.
‘‘Zamazenta.’’
“You caught Zamazenta?’ Okay, yeah, no,” I shake my head, “I’m definitely not gonna go easy on you. Success comes with hard work, that much I’ve learned so far. I’ll show you how serious I am.”
I cringe.
That sounds like one of those cheap lines those trainers and Gym Leaders say.
Nonetheless, no one seems to have noticed it because various of my colleagues break out in an amused ooooooooh. Slowly but surely, the first murmurs about bets arise.
Jack and I plop on the couch. Forrest scoots to the side to free up space for me. I half-expected him to immediately stand up to sit or stand somewhere else, but he stays put. Not that I mind since the heat radiating from his body is pleasant like his cologne. Leather, sandalwood, tobacco, and warm spices are the most prominent notes. However, there is something I can’t quite place, an element reminiscent of the woods.
Something wild.
Uncontained.
Grumpy wolf.
I snort at the thought. Fortunately, I manage to conceal my amusement behind an awkward cough. I can’t lose face yet around here.
“Ready?” Jack asks.
“When you are.”
He chuckles and shakes his head. “Fiery. I like it.”
And so the battle begins.
Supported by and with the blessing of our co-workers, we decide to partake in a 150 CC Grand Prix. Normally, the rule is everyone gets to play one race, but apparently they allow full tournaments whenever a trainee wants to challenge a senior. 
In the corner of my eye, I notice Forrest leans forwards and throws a look in my direction. However, when I glance to the side to read his expression, he averts his gaze to the floor. If only he knew how bad he is at faking interest in his shoes. The way he fumbles with his fingers is endearing, however, because it shows a fragility beneath the rough exterior.
Throughout the races, and again failing to be inconspicuous, he brushes my shoulder in encouragement while intently watching us go at it. Almost as if he’s trying to learn through observation. 
In spite of the slow start, I end up second with Yoshi while Jack ends in fourth place playing Princess Peach. 
The business analist holds out his hand as soon as the on-screen ceremony is over. “My turn.”
Startled by the abrupt gesture, I lean back to avoid being hit in the face. Forrest blinks, probably realising what almost happened. He beckons his brother to hand over the controller quickly and rapidly retreats into the corner of the sofa. “Sorry ‘bout that. Should’ve… should’ve done that differently.”
“No worries.” Our gazes meet. The brightness in his eyes has dimmed, the seas in them darkened with sincere regret. “Don’t apologise.”
You’re just a little clumsy, but that’s okay. A clumsy grumpy wolf. Keep it in. Don’t grin. Calm and collected.
He opens and closes his mouth, unsure what to say. Finding no words to answer with, he simply nods and lets out a low groan. 
“Um…” As if he’s holding a rock for reasons unknown, Forrest stares at the controller in his hand. Howard barely manages to stifle a snigger. Jack has his lips pressed firmly together in a straight line, also on the verge of breaking out into a fit of laughter.
“We can activate Smart Steer,” I propose. 
“What’s that?”
“It prevents you from falling off the map. It’s especially handy on Rainbow Road.” I might as well have spoken in tongues because he gives me a foggy look. “It’s one of the most difficult tracks. Notorious, even.”
“Ah,” he mumbles, brows still knit together.
I almost feel sorry for putting him on the spot, but, then again, it’s also quite funny to see one of the great giants in the office struggle.
“Now, with the L button, on top of the controller on the left,” I indicate where it is, “you use that to launch the items you gather during the race. However, you can only have one at a time.”
“One at a time… right.”
“You use the left joystick to steer and press A to accelerate.”
“Right.”
“Those are the basics. Still wanna play?”
Please don’t say no. Please don’t.
He nods. A smile spreads on my lips and I bounce in place like an excited puppy. “Yay. I’ll activate Smart Steer, though, just in case.”
“Aw, look at that. Forrest has safety wheels again,” Howard coos.
“Shut your damn mouth,” Forrest grumbles. 
I chuckle, shake my head, and set everything up including the safety wheels. Can’t throw the senior business analyst into the deep and have him crash, after all. 
We pick our characters. Well, it’s perhaps better to say I pick our characters since Forrest mucks about with the controller and already doesn’t seem to know what he’s doing. 
A few seconds later, the timer for the first round of the first course in the Flower Cup appears on screen. Everyone turns towards the screen in anticipation, except for Jack and Howard, who prefer watching Forrest as a form of entertainment.
Three.
Two.
Engines are starting to roar. 
One.
Start!
“It ain’t startin’.”
“You have to press A.”
“I am.” Forrest briefly taps the button. “The cart don’t move.”
“You have to press and hold it down. A regular car also doesn’t drive itself, does it?”
“Not yet,” Jack mumbles next to me.
I look at him, make a face, and turn back to the man on my right. “In Mario Kart they don’t. Now try it.”
Forrest holds down the button and lo and behold, the cart comes into motion.
Only to leave me at the start.
“Oi, you-’’ I exclaim and put the pedal to the metal.
We’re not even halfway through the first lap when the next car crash is bound to happen. 
“Ehm, where are you going?” I ask, squinting while trying to figure out a reason for what he’s doing. Then again, I suppose there is no rhyme nor reason, no analysis to be made, when it comes to video games. At least not with this particular business analyst.
On the screen, Forrest is trying to race up the waterfall. “Followin’ the track.”
“No, you’re not. We’re supposed to go down. Watch the map.”
“What map?”
“In the corner of the screen. That map!”
“Since when that’s there?”
The remark triggers both chuckles and eye rolls. Nonetheless, it doesn’t decrease the fun and joy of having gotten Forrest out of his comfort zone. 
And ending third in the Flower Cup because, despite the rocky start, I still managed to climb up the ranks. My poor colleague, however, ends in sixth place, having taken too many detours while wasting items.
“You tried.” I nudge his shoulder with mine as he hands me his controller so they can be passed on to the next pair of speed devils, “Thanks for playing. That was fun, wasn’t it?”
His jaw clenches and he avoids my gaze. Then, surprisingly, he grunts in acknowledgment. However, it seems there is still no time for a break because he reaches down to his bag, fingers automatically outstretched to the laptop inside.
Feeling emboldened by having gotten him to relax, to a certain degree, I dart forward and grab his wrist. Well, that was the idea, but my fingers are too short to fully wrap around it. All the same, it does the trick in getting his attention. 
His breath hitches and he stiffens. Yet, whereas I had braced myself against the first traces of wariness or even pure animosity, his demeanour is anything but violent. Forrest doesn’t attempt to escape my grip. Instead, he looks at me, eyebrows raised while he gazes at me with sharp focus.
I’ll have to choose my words carefully. Perhaps he’ll turn on me the second I say the wrong thing.
I bite my lip and gently squeeze his wrist, trying hard not to get lost in the warmth of his skin. “Put the laptop away? Surely work can wait until Monday.”
“I’m working on a big project.’’ He grimaces and scratches his cheek with his free hand. At least his fingers are off of the laptop. ‘‘One I need weekends for.”
“Working so much isn’t healthy. Everyone needs time to recharge.”
“He’s a notorious workaholic, Y/N,” Howard comments, sipping from his beer. “He’ll need someone to keep him away from the damn laptop for him to rest.”
He puts his bottle down, a wolfish yet well-meaning grin on his face. Evidently up to no good, he swaggers over and crouches down in front of us. His attention focused more on Forrest and me rather than Jack, he leans in and lowers his voice to a conspiratorial murmur. “Just give the girl your number. She seems awfully worried about you so why don’t you give her the means to assure her you’re doing fine. Or we can arrange a meeting point this weekend and you two enjoy the city, take some time off together.”
A prickling travels along the back of my neck when the implications of the comment dawn on me. A funny tingle rises in my chest, which has grown tight. Nevertheless, hoping it doesn’t show too much, I turn to the business analyst. “Maybe exchanging numbers goes a bit far, but I have nothing planned tomorrow.”
“C’mon, Forrest. This is the point where you ask the lady whether she’d like to spend time together. Ask her out for a cup of Joe. Show her what we mean by Southern comfort.” The Mendix trainer wiggles his eyebrows, but flinches and grimaces when Jack kicks him as kindly as possible. Or, rather, as politely as you can be when the situation calls for subdued violence.
“Fuck off, Howard.” Forrest clenches and unclenches his fists. If neither Jack or I intercept soon, we might very well have a fight on our hands.
“Alright, that’s enough out of you. You heard him, go on. Off you go.” I playfully push Howard’s shoulder, gently telling him what Forrest has already harshly put into words.
“She’s a keeper,” he mouthes before sauntering back to the table by the window.
“Sorry ‘bout my brother,” Forrest mumbles into his fist, gaze averted. “I’ll talk to him ‘bout crossin’ lines.”
“He means well,’’ I chuckle and tilt my head, secretly glad he can’t see the way I fumble with my necklace. ‘‘And, to be honest, it sounds like he agrees with me. It’s okay to take a break. So, I know we don’t know each other well, but would you humour me with a trip to Starbucks or another café? We’ll both take a break.”
Slowly he turns to me and nods. “How about one o’clock, hm?”
I let my necklace fall back against my skin, feeling light as a feather carried by a storm of butterflies. “Sounds good to me.”
“Might need my number. To… let you know,” he squirms a bit, “where I am. And vice versa.”
I fish my phone out of the back pocket of my jeans, create a new contact, and hand it to him. “Here. You fill out your info while I go grab something. Keep my place warm.”
“Want my number too?” Jack cuts in. The suggestion sounds frantic, but is also strangely reminiscent of the way a wolf whines. “In case he don’t answer.”
I giggle, in part to hide the embarrassment of only having just remembered he’s here too. “Sure. When he’s done, feel free to give me your number as well.”
A smile passes over Forrest’s lips as he looks at the case. Strangely, there is something endearing about the slightly crooked teeth peeking through. He briefly glances at me, but forces himself to maintain eye contact. “Suits you. Bunnies.”
“Do they?”
He nods.
Do you think I resemble one?
I stiffen at the thought and blink as if slapped across the cheek. “I’ll, uh, yeah, be right back.”
He sees me as a bunny. He does, doesn’t he? Hang on, is that good or bad? I mean, they’re cute. Does… Does that mean he likes cute girls? Also, they’re easy prey, weak. Sure, I might be out of my comfort zone here, but I don’t make easy prey, do I? Right? Yeah. Besides, men like girls that are a little fragile, in need of help. Smaller than them too. Why am I so worried about this? It’s ridiculous. Let it go! Let. It. Go. For. Fucking. Get it.
Like a woman possessed, I scour my bag and retrieve my Nintendo Switch Lite from it. I inhale and exhale deeply, roll back my shoulders, straighten my composure, and head back to the cafeteria. 
Casually, I plop down on the couch between Forrest and Jack, who returns my phone to me. “Thanks.”
“Give me a call whenever you want. Don’t have to be business,” Jack says, a careful smile playing on his lips.
“Same,” Forrest mumbles. “Call whenever.”
“Well, I’m gonna grab another beer. Y/N, want one?” Jack slaps his hands on his thighs and rises to his feet.
“Nah, I’m good. I’m a lightweight so I’m at my limit.”
Besides me, Forrest mumbles something. The only clear words I can make out are “never” and “drunk”, laced with what sounds like a promise. Or I might be imagining things, the booze having gotten more to my head than I thought.
“Anything else then? Water? Soda? Tea?” I shake my head. “Forrest?”
He grunts as a substitute for ‘no’, focused on the e-reader in his hands. He must’ve picked it up while I was gone.
“Alright,” Jack murmurs and turns his back on us.
I plug my headphones in and start up my favourite game at the moment. 
Silence is an important language to understand, but also incredibly hard. Only few are well-spoken in it, know how to use it to communicate with one another.
But even a master sometimes needs words. 
“If you want you can…” In the corner of my eye, I see Forrest awkwardly shift in his seat.
“Hm?” I look up from my screen, wondering what it is he wants. “Sorry, what is it you said?”
“Lean. On me.” He clears his throat, voice toned down. “If- If you want.”
I shuffle over and rest my head on his shoulder. “Oh, yeah, this is really comfy.” 
I snuggle up to him further, basking in the hearth-like heat his body emits. Perhaps it’s his cologne, but the woody notes in it conjure a pleasant image of being curled up by the fire in a cabin in the woods. Sheltered and safe from harm since there is a fierce protector nearby, hiding beneath the skin. “You’re really warm.”
He stiffens for a moment, but then lets out a pleased hum and rests his head on top of mine. 
After another moment of comfortable silence in which he reads and I game, Forrest asks perhaps the most ironic question this evening. “Whatcha playing?”
“Pokémon Brilliant Diamond.”
“That’s what Jack plays, right? That game in which creatures fight each other.”
“You also have to train them. And they’re not ‘creatures’, they’re Pokémon.’’ I sit up, my tone harsher than intended. Then again, who does not get carried away when talking about what they love? ‘‘Also, there’s an overarching story line, an adventure to go on.”
His features soften, surprise melting into tenderness, and he hums.
“Yeah, yeah, I know. I’m a nerd.” I roll my eyes and lean against him as before.
He hums again, but whether he agrees or means something else is up in the air.
We retreat into the same bubble we created at the quarterly meeting last week. Strangely, he let me in despite the walls he’s surrounded himself with, prolonging the conversation as much as possible. Afterwards, he walked me to the station.
I’m still unsure whether his cheeks were rosy because of the cold or he was blushing.
“When are you leaving?” Forrest mumbles after a while, the words hardly intelligible. It’s almost as if he’s reluctant to ask the question, let alone keen to hear the answer to it. 
“In a little bit.” I check my watch. “Half an hour, I wager.”
“It’s dark out.”
“Wanna walk me to the station again?”
He slowly nods after a moment of hesitation.
“I’d like that.’’ A genuine smile, full of anticipation and the vivid memory of last time, spreads on my lips. ‘‘Thank you, Forrest.”
This time, he really is blushing.

Okay wait. Imagine Scara and xiao being interviewed with they're s/o and the interviewer asks the boys "What's your position around the house." And before they can answer, they're s/o just goes "Being submissive and breedable, Next." That's my Request 💀💀
Submissive and Breedable
scara + xiao x reader (separate)
Tumblr media
summary—> your at an interview and your boyfriend gets asked “what’s your role in the house?”
warning(s)/genre: fluff, kind of suggestive? modern AU. Gn!reader, cursing
A/N; this was so fun to write, this was the best request ever. I hope this is fine! I liked the request, but didn’t really have an idea on how to write it. I hope this is good enough!
Tumblr media
Xiao;
Both you and xiao are pop Idols, one of the most famous idol couples in the community.
you got invited to an interview about your jobs, and your relationship. which you gladly accepted.
You had to drag xiao on to the plane to come. (he doesn’t like interviews, especially about his personal life)
You both agreed not to share too much personal information. wanting to keep it private, just for you and xiao. and maybe some close friends.
“welcome! the ever so famous couple: Xiao and Y/n, how are you this evening?”
“We’re doing good! the flight wasn’t too bad, xiao took a nap so he should be fine for this short interview” you smile, taking xiao’s hand in yours as he huffs and blushes.
“I see! It’s great that the flight went well. Ready for Q&A time?”
“of course.” “let’s get this over with.”
After a flood of questions from your fans, finally getting to the last one!
“last one, ready?”
“yup!” you cheer, and xiao nods his head, rubbing circles on to your hand.
“Alrighty, anonymous asks: “Xiao, what’s your role at home?”
Before your boyfriend can even answer the question himself, you jump in cutting him off, “being submissive and breedable.”
Xiao’s head whips to you, Face covered in red blush. “y/n!”
You and the interviewer are giggling while xiao is having a mini panic attack, questioning his life choices. Head in hands trying to cover the blush on his face.
“Well that was sure a great way to hit off this interview! Thank you for coming here today, y/n and xiao!”
Tumblr media
Scaramouche;
Your boyfriend is a popular gamer, and he decided to go to vidcon this year
in which you tagged a long, including some of his friends decided to join (childe, dottore, signora) much to his disliking
Scara was on a panel, inviting you to sit with him because he didn’t trust you to be anywhere other then beside him.
It was a panel with other youtubers/twitch streamers, including childe and dottore
After dottore finished talking about what his channel was about (building/experiments, kinda like mattpat) Childe decided to tease scara a bit, with you in on a prank ofc.
Childe, turning to where you and scara sat on the furniture on stage, he smiled, “hey Y/N, why don’t you answer a question.”
“Me? oh, uhm sur-“
“Absolutely not.” scara cuts you off, “I don’t trust you enough to ask them a question, what if you set them up.” he huffs crossing his arms.
already knowing he was gonna say this, childe counters his argument “well, then why don’t you answer the question” he has a sneaky grin on his face.
he sighs, and rolls his eyes. “fine, whatever, what’s the damn question.”
“well, one of your fans asked, ‘what’s your role at the house?”
“what?” he scoffs, “example?”
“scara, honey, they mean like being a house wife, male wife, etc-“ you explain for him.
“-what kind of question is that? ugh, if you have to know it’s-“ it’s your turn to cut him off,
with a mischievous grin on your face you put a hand over your boyfriend’s mouth and yell, “being submissive and breedable!” you giggle as your boyfriend yanks your hand off his mouth and covers yours
“WHAT THE FUCK?!”
childe and dottore are laughing their asses off, the fans are screaming and laughing, clapping at your courage to yell that out.
“I’m not taking you to vid con anymore.”
“but this was my first time!”
“and your last.”
you get up from your seat, “well atleast i’m not submissive and breedable, scara.” you giggle and dash off the stage before he can grab you.
he’s internally dying.
