kian stone from jrwi blood in the bayou please ^^
Kian Stone - JRWI: Blood in the Bayou
Tumblr media
Kianā€™s rocks are:
Dragons blood, dalmatian jasper, and shungite!

Dragons blood: somewhat a synesthesia pick. The deep red parts are very Kian, though generally speaking I think this rock could be assigned to the campaign itself. The pattern it has generally draws me towards choosing it for Kian though, possibly because of his choice in animal print clothes
Dalmation jasper: based in large part off color scheme and the pattern on his coat, but also because he just gives those vibes.
Shungite: 110% a synesthesia choice. I cannot explain why this rock, but I knew he needed a dark stone with a metallic luster and hematite didnt feel quite right so I googled it and found this one, which I like better (specifically untumbled)

Jokes on you I'm a lesbian gay man who's attracted to ALL the body types!!!!
I wonder how many of the people from 2012 era tumblr that touted the ā€œwomen donā€™t want burly macho men, women want flynn rider or milo atlanis or roger 101 dalmations or that waifish guy from paperman!!ā€ still feel that way. Cause all the women I know now prefer burly, fat, & hairy men with huge tits, and when I say women Iā€™m including the lesbians

the one thing I'll never forgive the pjo series for is not making Cerberus a Dalmatian
Look ik he's all big and scary but also there are some sources that mention that Cerberus/Kerberos may mean spotted but I'm not sure
Imagine pulling up to the underworld and seeing the fearsome Cerberus and it's just this guy

Househusband Au HC'S
Summary:Crewel/Crowley/Vil/Rook/Malleus/Idia x gn!reader
Requested by @stygianoir
A/N: my tag list is still packed so hopefully you guys find this šŸ˜‚
CW:sus gardener Rook, discussions of Idia's depression and fear of death, but I think that's it
Part Two. Part Three
Tumblr media
Most well dressed parent at the PTA meeting. Puts everyone to shame, and makes all the other parents and teachers jealous.
Cooks five star meals exclusively , and makes sure you get your proper intake of nutrients. He can't have his favorite pup lacking in proper nutrition!
One hundred percent coordinates your outfits for you everyday. You're the best dressed worker, all because your husband hand sews you outfits designed to blow the competition out of the water.
Pretends he's not snuggly, until nighttime, then he gets pouty. He'll be aggressively folding laundry, and not speaking to you until you come to bed and let him hold you.
You own twelve dogs. Each dog has an individual diet it is on, that is hand made by him everyday. He knows exactly what every dog needs, and makes sure to memorize what each dog needs.
If you want kids, you will adopt/birth at least three. He likes a full house. Majored in alchemy before he settled down as your househusband, and is more than happy to tutor not just your kids, but also their friends, in alchemy.
Sings like Roger from 101 dalmatians because I said so. Also he plays the piano like him. Because I said so. I'm weak okay!
Tumblr media
They say he had an illustrious career as a model, then he met you. That's only half true though. He was planning on retiring anyway, and just happened to meet you around that time. He likes to let the tabloids believe it was all your fault. It makes him laugh. Vil Schoenheit bows to no one! Now drink your smoothie!
Healthy meals constantly. He somehow managed to make them all taste good though. It's a little suspicious honestlyā€¦what does he put in that smoothie? You never liked smoothies for breakfast beforeā€¦
He likes to do your nightly routine for you. It's his love language. At 7 pm sharp, he clears his throat, and gestures for you to sit down. Then he brushes out your hair, does your skin care routine, dresses you in pajamas, and tucks you in, making sure to give you a kiss on the forehead before he joins you.
If you aren't home in time for your nightly routine, he goes to bed early, turned away from your side of the bed. He will not speak to you, even though you know full well he is awake. He knows deep down it's not your fault, but he has simmering rage and no one else to take it out on.
That said, when you do fight (which you do a lot) he'll storm out before he can be particularly nasty. But you'll wake up to a single rose on the pillow next to you, and a new pair of shoes to wear to work.
You have one fluffy white cat, or one child. It's one or the other in Vil's pristine house. This isn't a barn, for seven's sake.
Tumblr media
Cooks, cleans, gardensā€¦. he's made for this life. You don't even know where he gets the time for it.
Rook prides himself on having the best garden in the neighborhood. Your neighbors asked him what fertilizer he used, and he wrapped an arm around you and giggled about how it was "the most organic around". Considering the last time you had to do laundry there were red stains on his clothes, you choose not to ask questions.
If you have kids, there are three of them, each two years apart. He makes the perfect paper bag lunches for them everyday, with little french notes in them (raising bilingual kids in this family). As he drops them off at school he kisses each one on the top of the head, and jovially waves them off.
You have two dogs that he takes hunting with him on his solo weekends (they aren't often, because he can barely stand to part from you!) But you also have a rabbit. He gave it your name, and likes to tease you by saying how he "caught his lapin" and never saying whether he's referring to you or the rabbit.
Another one who makes sure you look your best at work. But his favorite thing is when you forget your lunch, and he "has" to bring it to work for you. This is when he is at his most dressed up, and your outfits compliment eachother the most. He loves the gazes of envy that come his way as he kisses you and hands you your lunch.
When he's not doing chores at break neck speed, he wants you to either be in his arms, or him in yours. He doesn't care which! Please, his poor heart needs you!
Tumblr media
Trust fund baby. Born rich, then married you. Tried to convince you not to work, but you wanted to, for whatever reason, so he "allows" it. (Who is he kidding? He could never deny you anything, what a simp) he sulks all day though, moping like a lovesick teen until you come home. Heaven forbid you forget something and have to come back in before you actually left, because he has your boss on speed dial, and will call you in sick. Oh, you just left your wallet? Too late, he assumed you had fallen ill and had chosen to stay home with him!Ā 
He's a little clueless on cooking and household chores (Lilia is no help) but he tries! Boy does he try! And it's not half bad. Not stellar, but not bad. You've only gotten food poisoning once, and he's only ever burnt a hole in two of your shirts with an iron.
Loves to serenade you with his violin on special occasions. You know the evening is going to be wonderful when he pulls it out. Oftentimes, it's a song he wrote for you, and sometimes he even sings along.Ā  His deep timbre will often have you so relaxed that you start to drift off. He's fine with that! More time to cuddle!
Speaking of, he starts the night out by laying on his side of the bed, and by the end of the night he is wrapped around you like a koala. He also gets very hot at night. You often don't need a blanket. You asked him about it once, and he said something about "draconic internal temperature regulation", whatever the fuck that means.
You had to put him on a budget because he buys you every shiny thing he sees. He always goes over budget, and always insists it's the last time and it will never happen again. This, friends, is what we call a lie.
Tumblr media
He's only a househusband in name, really. He still has an income/job in the form of streaming and YouTube videos. But he stays at home, and likes it when you call him your househusband. He gets all blushy and smiley. He likes the idea of being the one you look forward to coming home to.
Ortho lives with you both, obviously. And he does all the cooking and cleaning. But he and Idia have an unspoken agreement that if you ask, he helped too.
Calls you at work at least once a day. It's always during your lunch break though, so that you can "eat lunch together" You know his mental health difficulties are acting up if he calls you more than once though.You don't have to come home, he'll be alright, he just needs to hear your voice.
His stream only knows you as player 2. When you get back from work, he'll say "Oh player 2 just got home!" And get so excited. He'll run off stream to give you a kiss, and won't come back until you remind him he's streaming. His followers have been there through the whole progression of your relationship, and despite not knowing what you look like, and only hearing your voice off screen every once in a while, they adore Gloomy Samurai and Player 2.
You always have two cats at a time, usually the ones at the shelter or humane society that are bonded or siblings. He doesn't want to separate a family, and also gets nervous about the inevitability of death. So you always have two cats. That way if something happens you always have one.
Yes. You get him to start telehealth therapy, and medication. Why do you ask?
Tumblr media
He tries, bless his heart. His cooking is not bad, but his cleaning skills are subpar. To be honest, he's not cut out for the househusband life, but you've heard horror stories about how he handled his previous jobs. So for the sake of the world, you do your best to ensure he stays here.
"He's so generous" šŸ™„ Any time he goes a little bit above what you expected from him, he drops that line. A particularly good dessert? How generous. He actually folded laundry today? So magnanimous. But it hurts his pride if you don't agree, and you married him for some reason, right?
He has an allowance, and usually spends all of it. Sometimes it's gifts for you, but a lot of times it's for him. Which, it's his allowance, so that's fine. But he buys the weirdest stuff and doesn't use it. It just sits around your home.
If you have to work on something on the home computer, good luck to you. Home is for loving him, not working! He'll slip into your lap, give you a sexy pout, and start caressing your cheek, and tracing shapes into your neck. Then he'll start talking about how you're neglecting him, just put the work away and come cuddle with him.Ā 
Where he shines though, is if you guys end up with kids. He's a surprisingly good father, making sure they all are clean, safe, and well fed. He helps with homework, and is surprisingly good at it, he's good at seeing what their needs are, he knows immediately when one of the kids is sick, and is at the doctor right awayā€¦ you don't know where these skills came from. But the second the kids are in bed, he's back to being your needy husband.

As Fate Would Have It | DILF!Anakin Skywalker
Anakin Skywalker gets a new assistant, who also happens to be his favorite OnlyFans performer.
ā—‚Ā previous ā–ø chapter two
rating: explicit | pairing: anakin skywalker x afab!reader | wc:Ā 3.7k | read on ao3
warnings: modern!au, undisclosed age gap, SMUT [use of toys (dildo and fleshlight), mutual masturbation, squirting, watching of pornography]
Tumblr media
After midnight is Anakinā€™s favorite time of the day. His kids have been asleep since 8:30 pmā€” their weekday curfewā€” and heā€™s finally stopped working on the project he brought home from work. It kept him from watching 101 Dalmatians with Luke and Leia but ā€œit needed to be done.ā€Ā 
He completed it well after the twins went to sleep, his neck was aching, and he needed to unwind. Now, heā€™s settled on the left side of his king bed, back propped against the headboard and his tablet waiting for him on the nightstand. Heā€™s been thinking about this all day. Ever since he got the notification at 1:48 p.m. that HoneySuckle uploaded a new video.Ā 
While he was at work. On a very busy day, he might add. As much as he wanted to get away to watch it immediately, he couldnā€™t. But now he has uninterrupted time to enjoy himself and the woman heā€™s about to watch.Ā 
Anakin watches HoneySuckle exclusively. For over three years now, he has been subscribed to her page for $7.99 a month, which is an absolute disgrace to the quality of content she puts out. Thatā€™s why he tips her at least $200 for each video. Itā€™s a number that hardly means a thing to Anakin. But to HoneySuckle, it is everything. Itā€™s a cushion for incidentals. For the flat tire on her Mini Cooper. The vet bill for her orange tabby, Panini. She has expressed her thanks to him in their private messages, but it never seems to be enough.Ā 
Their casual conversations are never enough.Ā 
It comes as a great surprise to Anakin to see that her newest video is dedicated to him. Himā€” Anakin Skywalker AKA skyguy81. AKA HoneySuckleā€™s biggest fan and number one supporter.Ā 
Squirting for Sky šŸ–¤
Heā€™s never clicked on anything faster in his life. The edges of his brain are beginning to fog. The mere thought of Honey getting off to the thought of him makes goosebumps prickle along his skin and his cock begin to swell. But then he sees what sheā€™s wearing. Or, not wearing for that matter. Usually, sheā€™ll begin videos with a full set on. Whether itā€™s a lacy bra and panties, a teddy, or a babydoll, teasingly taking off her lingerie is part of her brand.Ā 
Not in this video, though. In this new 23 minute video, she is wearing a black garter and thong with roses embroidered in the mesh along her hip bones. Sheer black stockings are pulled up to her thighs and as she spreads her legsā€” dear Godā€” Anakin sees that her panties are crotchless.Ā 
Every video is expertly angled so only the bottom half of her face is on camera. Sheā€™s mentioned to Anakin in the past that this is not her full time job and therefore some anonymity is important. He doesnā€™t need to see her whole face to know she is beautiful.Ā 
ā€œI bought this just for you,ā€ Honey says directly to Anakin. ā€œYou said you liked black. I hope you like this.ā€Ā  She goes to grab the vibrator next to the pink dildo on her bed.Ā 
ā€œI love it,ā€ Anakin mumbles. Running her hand over one of her bare breasts, she turns on the vibrator. The familiar hum of the toy reminds Anakin to put on his headphones. Just in case.Ā 
Now with that taken care of, Anakin can begin taking care of himself. It doesnā€™t take long for the guy to get hard when heā€™s watching Honey. Hell, he can just think about her and heā€™ll be horny. The melodic cadence to her voice, the angelic sounds she makes when she cums, the lustful desire to bury himself in her cunt. She is the only woman he has desired since his wife and he doesnā€™t even know her name. But he knows the curves of her body as if heā€™s felt them with his own two hands. God, how he wishes he could touch her, kiss her, pleasure her.Ā 
Itā€™s pathetic. He is pathetic for wanting the impossible. Anakin Skywalker is a smart man. A genius in many regards. Yet heā€™s delusional enough to think her messages might mean something. That this video dedicated to him means something.
Of course, it doesnā€™t. Everything about his conversations with Honey is transactional. Itā€™s part of her job. Thatā€™s it. Nothing more. Youā€™re not special.Ā 
But fuck, does it make his cock hard thinking this is all for him. Well, this is for him. The title of the video says so. With her legs spread nice and wide, Anakin can see how wet she has become from the vibrator on her clit.Ā 
Stiff and dribbling precum on his belly, Anakin wraps his long fingers around his equally long shaft. He swipes his palm over the tip to lubricate the rest of his dick. Honey has now turned off the vibrator and grabs the dildo. Despite its playful color, itā€™s a formidable size. A similar 7 inches to Anakinā€™s cock, she opens her mouth and the tip disappears. Then a little bit moreā€¦ and a little moreā€¦ until sheā€™s gagging. She pulls it out of her mouth with a loud gasp. Messy strings of saliva fall on her chin and chest.Ā 
ā€œFuck,ā€ she breathes. ā€œI love choking on your cock. Feeling it so deep in my throat until I canā€™t breathe.ā€Ā 
This sends a jolt through Anakinā€™s whole body. His cock lurches in his hand and he knows all too well that his hand will simply not suffice tonight. He pauses Honeyā€™s video and reluctantly gets off of bed to retrieve his Fleshlight from his hidden stash in the closet. Usually, his hand does just fine. Heā€™s used to it by now. Being a single dad in his early forties and the CEO of his own company, he doesnā€™t have time to go on dates. He has one woman on his rolodex of hookup numbers and even then, he doesnā€™t contact her often. Usually itā€™s her who needs him. He prefers it that way, anyway.Ā 
Anakin returns to his bed with the barely used Fleshlight in hand and immediately resumes the video. Honey continues to give the dildo a blowjob, making Anakin ache for it to be his cock in her mouth. He can only imagine how warm it is. How heā€™d make her relax so he can shove his entire length down her throat. How sheā€™d sound choking on his dick and not some pink toy.Ā 
Again, she holds it in her mouth until her lungs are screaming for air. Anakin ruts his hips up into his fist. Heā€™s waiting to use the Fleshlight until she puts the toy in her cunt.Ā 
Which is right now. She lines the tip of it to her opening, pushing the head in teasingly before removing it and dragging it along her folds.Ā 
ā€œHave you been good today? Do you deserve to fuck me?ā€ The seductive nature of Honeyā€™s voice is so familiar to Anakin, yet every time dirty talk drips from her lips, his spine tingles.Ā 
ā€œPlease, Honey,ā€ Anakin whispers, hovering the opening of the Fleshlight over his cock. ā€œPut it in, baby.ā€
As if obeying his command, Honey pushes the toy into her hole. At the same time, Anakin lowers his own toy onto himself. The tight Fleshlight sucks in his dick and it damn near has Anakinā€™s eyes rolling to the back of his head. Heā€™d forgotten what it feels likeā€¦ how similar yet different it is to real pussy. Fuck, what he would do to have his cock in Honeyā€™s actual cunt. The best he can do is use his overactive imagination.Ā 
Honey is thrusting the dildo in and out of her and soft moans fill Anakinā€™s ears. He yanks the Fleshlight up and downā€”a lazy way of using it, he knowsā€” but it does the job. ā€œThatā€™s itā€¦ā€ he breathes. His heartbeat is racing impossibly fast, chasing down an orgasm that is going to arrive far too soon. ā€œI fuck you so well, donā€™t I, Honey?ā€Ā 
ā€œMmā€¦ā€ she whimpers, pushing the toy deeper and further into her.Ā  ā€œYour cockā€™s so bigā€¦ fills me up so well. Feels so good!ā€Ā 
ā€œYou have no idea how good I could make you feel,ā€ Anakin growls. In his mind sheā€™s on her back, just as she is now. Her knees are pushed up to her ears and Anakin is thrusting into her tight hole to no end. Heā€™s so deep, he can see himself in her stomach. He kisses her, finally tasting her on his own lips. Their tongues are doing a dance, his fingers are on her clit for maximum pleasure. And sheā€™s screaming his name. She canā€™t believe how good he fucks. How he, at 42 years old, can last as long as he has. ā€œIā€™m not fucking geriatric,ā€ heā€™d say. Heā€™d make her cum at least twice before he does, just to prove a point.Ā 
Honey then takes the dildo out of her cunt and brings it back up to her mouth. Anakin removes the Fleshlight. She hollows her cheeks around it whilst reaching for the vibrator. She turns it back on and returns it to her clit. Her toes curl at the sensation and a moan is muffled by the cock in her mouth.Ā 
ā€œLet me hear you,ā€ Anakin encourages, no matter how silly and pointless it is to do so. ā€œPlease, Honey. I love hearing you moan.ā€Ā 
She takes the dildo out of her mouth to announce that sheā€™s going to cum. ā€œOh, fuck. Fuck!ā€Ā 
Sheā€™s squirming on the bed, mouth shaped in that glorious ā€˜Oā€™. As her orgasm rattles through her body, she keeps the vibrator on her swollen nub and returns the dildo to her pussy. Anakin follows suit and sheathes his cock once again, thrusting his hips up to the speed Honey is fucking herself.Ā 
ā€œI hope youā€¦fuck, that feels good,ā€ she is interrupted by her own pleasure. Itā€™s her authenticity that Anakin adores and enjoys the most. It never feels like sheā€™s performing. ā€œI hope youā€™re making yourself feel as good as I feel. Are you fucking your hand? Your mattress? A pillow? I bet you wish you were in my tight cunt. Donā€™t you?ā€Ā 
ā€œYes,ā€ Anakin breathes. He is on fire now. Heā€™s not sure the coil in his belly could get any tighter. Heā€™s going to cum soon and Honey hasnā€™t even squirted yet. Thereā€™s five minutes left of the video. ā€œYou wouldnā€™t believeā€”ah, fucking hellā€” wouldnā€™t believe how badly I want to fuck you.ā€Ā 
ā€œIā€™m gonna squirt! Oh my Godā€¦please cum for me. Cum while I squirt for you!ā€ Honey removes the dildo as the clear liquid sprays from her cunt. Anakin abandons the Fleshlight and takes over with his tried and true hand. Heā€™s pumping quickly, heā€™s mesmerized by Honey and how she squirts a little more each time she puts the dildo back inside of her and pulls it back out. Her back is arching off of the bed as she drops both toys and cums one last time.Ā 
Anakin is cumming now, too. His sack twitches up toward him while he releases his load on his belly. He stuffs a fist into his mouth to silence his moan. He bites down on his own hand with fervor, and it hurts. He isnā€™t completely finished when he hears her utter the words ā€˜last video.ā€™Ā 
Wait, what?Ā 
He needs to go back. Surely, he didnā€™t hear her correctly.Ā 
ā€œI hope you all enjoyed yourselves while watching. I know I did. This is a bit of a last hurrah for me. Iā€™m starting a new job next week and I just donā€™t think Iā€™ll have the time to upload, so this might be my last video. Thank you for all of the support over the last three years. I had a great time. Kisses, HoneySuckle.ā€Ā 
And thatā€™s the end of it. Anakin is stunned. He watches her video again. And then once more. There's a lilt to her voice that makes Anakin think she is happy to be done with this. He should be happy for her. But he hangs onto the word ā€˜mightā€™.Ā Ā 
Honey said this might be her last video. Anakin shouldnā€™t feel so fucking relieved that his favorite OnlyFans performer might still upload videos. What is wrong with him? He has no real connection to her whatsoever yet he feels disappointed by the idea of not having her videos in his life anymore.Ā 
Fuck it. He sends her a $500 tip, a little message and goes to wash up.Ā 
.
.
.
Panini is pressed against your side, purring contentedly while you stroke his back absently. Youā€™re wrapped in a sherpa cozy in bed while watching The Great British Bake Off. Itā€™s your bedtime show. Youā€™ve probably seen every series at least 3 times, simply because itā€™s the show you put on to go to sleep. But most of the time, you end up staying up to watch it as if youā€™ve never seen it before.Ā 
Your phone lights up with a notification. You glance at it but immediately do a double take. You grab your phone off of your nightstand and stare at the screen with your jaw dropped.Ā 
Skyguy81 sent you a tip!
$500
You pause in the middle of Prue Leith giving her thoughts on someoneā€™s Showstopper. You swipe right to open the message.
That was spectacular, Honey. From the lingerie to the beautiful way you cum. You certainly know how to put on a show. I must admit, I was a bit disappointed to hear that it might be your last video. You are the only performer I watch. I will miss you. I wish you the best of luck with your new endeavor.Ā 
And I know what you are going to say. ā€œItā€™s too much.ā€ It is not. Please accept the tip as a token of my appreciation. You helped me feel less lonely on the days I needed someone the most. - SkyĀ 
Why do you feel like youā€™re about to cry? Sky has been your top supporter since you began uploading videos during COVID. It was just supposed to be a way to make ends meet. To pay off the student loans and any other financials that came up. The tips started off relatively small. $50 here, $75 there. He was the first to give you a $100 tip.Ā 
Then, after about a year, he upped it to $200 after each video. Your thank you messages to him turned into conversations. Short ones, never deep or personal, yet you feel like you know him. You feel likeā€¦no, itā€™s silly. You feel like he could be a friend. If you both werenā€™t hiding behind a screen and fake names, maybe you actually could be.Ā 
You begin typing a response.Ā 
Sky- I am going to say it anyway. THAT IS WAY TOO MUCH!!! You have been far too generous to me over the years. I donā€™t deserve it.Ā 
Ā He replies in a matter of seconds.Ā 
I have to disagree, Honey. I wish I could do more for you.Ā 
Like what?Ā 
I would take you out to a nice dinner. Perhaps share a bottle of wine while we get to know each other.Ā 
Would you take me home after?
Whose home?Ā 
Whichever youā€™d like.Ā 
Iā€™d take you back to your house and leave you with a goodnight kiss.
Thatā€™s all?Ā 
You would like more?Ā 
What the hell are you doing? Are you actually flirting with this man? He could be 60 years old and bald! Not that thereā€™s anything wrong with being 60 or bald, but come on. Youā€™re in your 20s. You have to have some limit. You stare at his username. Skyguy81. Maybe 81 is his birth year? So, that would put him at 42. 42 isnā€™t too badā€¦Ā 
Oh, what the hell. Itā€™s not like youā€™re actually gonna meet this guy, right?Ā 
Well, I might wear something special underneath my dress. Something that I paid for with the money youā€™ve given me. Wouldnā€™t you want to see it?Ā 
Yes. I would.Ā 
What would you do if you took me home?Ā 
When you donā€™t hear back from Sky after thirty minutes, you assume he fell asleep. It is nearly 1 a.m. on a Thursday night. Or is it early Friday morning? Regardless, he probably has work in the morning.Ā 
With a rather loud yawn, you decide itā€™s time for you to go to sleep, too.Ā 
.
.
.
Luke and Leia barge into Anakinā€™s room at 7:30, dressed and ready to go to school while their dad is still fast asleep. He must have slept through his alarm. Luke is poking him in the side and urging him to wake up.Ā 
ā€œAlright, Iā€™m up,ā€ he grumbles, scrubbing his hands down his face. ā€œHave you two eaten?ā€Ā 
Leia nods. ā€œEggos and orange juice.ā€Ā 
ā€œI wanted a Toaster Strudel,ā€ Luke says.Ā 
ā€œAnd I told him we donā€™t have any Toaster Strudels,ā€ replies his twin sister.Ā 
ā€œYes we do! You just didnā€™t look hard enough.ā€Ā 
Anakin pinches the bridge of his nose. He feels a headache coming on. He didnā€™t drink last night, so why does he feel hungover? ā€œAhsoka ate the last one when she was here on Tuesday, remember?ā€Ā 
ā€œOh yeah,ā€ Luke recalls.Ā 
ā€œDad, weā€™re gonna be late for school if you donā€™t get out of bed,ā€ Leia says.Ā 
Anakin checks the time on his phone. Your message from last night is at the bottom of his notifications. He already has five work emails to answer. His calendar pings with reminders about meetings and his assistantā€™s retirement party. ā€œBring your things to the front door. Iā€™ll be down in a few minutes.ā€Ā 
In the rush of getting himself dressed, not only does he put on two different pairs of socks but two different pairs of shoes, too. He doesnā€™t realize this until after he enters the office and Dorothy, attentive as ever, points it out as heā€™s walking past her desk and into his office.Ā 
Dorothy is 74 years old, a widow, and owl fanatic. She has been Anakinā€™s assistant since he started the company 20 years ago. ā€œDid you get dressed in the dark, Mr. Skywalker?ā€Ā 
Even after two decades of Anakinā€™s insistence on calling him by his first name, Dorothy continues to defy him. ā€œI overslept,ā€ Anakin answers. ā€œI was rushing to get ready because you know how Leia gets when sheā€™s late to anything.ā€Ā 
Dorothy nods. ā€œYes, she is the most punctual 9 year old I know. I presume you did not eat breakfast.ā€
ā€œNo, I didnā€™t.ā€ Anakin opens his emails.Ā 
ā€œWhy donā€™t I get you an egg sandwich from Dexterā€™s after I retrieve a matching pair to one of your shoes.ā€Ā 
ā€œI didnā€™t ask you to do that.ā€
ā€œYou didnā€™t have to.ā€Ā 
Anakin cracks a smile. Dorothy has always been two steps ahead of Anakin. Sheā€™s been somewhat of a mother figure to him over the years. She believed in him when no one else did. How many people are going to put their faith in a cocky 22 year old with wild engineering innovations? Dorothy was there when his wife passed away and nannied the twins off and on for a few years while Anakin regained his bearings. His heart contracts. He is truly going to miss her. ā€œDo you have to retire, Dorothy?ā€Ā 
ā€œIā€™m afraid so,ā€ Dorothy replies with a bittersweet smile. ā€œYou will be just fine. And I trust my successor will attend to your needs just as well as I have. I picked her myself. I know exactly what you need in an assistant, Mr. Skywalker.ā€Ā 
Did Dorothy just wink at Anakin before leaving his office? What the hell does she have up her sleeve?Ā 
.
.
.
Gold and brown leaves dance across the concrete in the courtyard of Skywalker Enterprises. The autumn air bites at your cheeks and youā€™re thankful you decided to wear a beanie along with your plaid pea coat.Ā 
You notice Dorothyā€™s silver hair before the rest of her as she walks toward you with two cups of something hot in her hands. ā€œGood morning, Y/N.ā€ she hands you the cup.Ā 
ā€œGood morning, Dorothy,ā€ you reply with a smile. You lift off the lid to smell the contents. The steam tickles your nose before recognizing the warm spices of Chai. ā€œYou remembered my drink order?ā€Ā 
ā€œOf course.ā€ Dorothy sits across from you. ā€œI trust you went over the files I sent you regarding Mr. Skywalker? How are you feeling about the job?ā€Ā 
You take a meager sip of your Chai latte. Itā€™s still too hot to drink. ā€œI read all of them at least three times. He doesnā€™t seem too high maintenance.ā€
ā€œFar from it,ā€ Dorothy replies.Ā 
ā€œButā€¦ā€ you begin, wondering if you should even mention it.Ā 
ā€œWhat is it, dear?ā€Ā 
ā€œI just find it a little strange that I havenā€™t met him. I wouldā€™ve assumed heā€™d be part of the hiring process. Isnā€™t it important we get along?ā€Ā 
ā€œOh, donā€™t worry about that. Anakin gets along with everyone! Heā€™s a charmer,ā€ Dorothy sips on her drink. ā€œHe entrusted me with finding a replacement for myself because I know him better than anyone. I know his needs better than he knows them. And you, my dear, have shown you are more than capable to take over. Your references spoke very highly of you.ā€Ā 
Right. Your referencesā€” one of which was your best friend who pretended to be a famous influencer who you ā€œassistedā€ for 2 years after college. The other was a family you nannied for for only 2 weeks while the wife was out of town and the dad thought he could pull off some fantasy of fucking the nanny. The only good thing that came out of it was him telling you heā€™d give you a stellar reference for your next job. Turns out he wasnā€™t lying.Ā 
ā€œSo, Iā€™ll start on Monday? By myself? No shadowing or anything?ā€Ā 
Dorothy nods. ā€œI will officially be retired by 5 p.m. today. After which, Mr. Skywalker is yours.ā€
Donā€™t you wish. Youā€™ve seen photos of him in Forbes. Itā€™s an understatement to say heā€™s handsome. And it would be a lie to say you didnā€™t apply for the job because of his looks. By some miracle you were chosen out of hundreds of applicants and hired. Youā€™ve signed the papers already. Youā€™re officially on the Skywalker Enterprises payroll. Of course, youā€™ll be on probation for 90 days but Dorothy seems confident youā€™ll be a good fit.Ā 
Hopefully you will live up to Anakin Skywalkerā€™s expectations.

Why Midori is such a breath of fresh air or how to actually write a Villain.
So the awaited essay, the winner of the FrenchGremlin polls of laziness finally has come! It took some time but itā€™s finally over. If your choice didnā€™t get chosen thatā€™s okay! Iā€™ll repost a new poll with old and newer options. Please reblog this one i put a lot of time in it, it's like, five pages long over a silly goose. Also sorry for the grammar i sucks and i'm not native. So letā€™s begin:
(also here is the link to the video format)
So first letā€™s make things clear, What IS a villain?
ā€œA villain is a character whose evil actions or motives are important to the plot.ā€ That is why I do want to make a difference between a villain and an antagonist, an antagonist is a character who are a plot devices that creates obstruction to the protagonist. That means that a villain is forced to be an antagonist while an antagonist is not forced to be a villain. For example shin is an antagonist but not a villain, he is driven by selfish desires which are themselves fueled by fear anger and loss, he is the protagonist of his own story and is a sympathetic character despite it all, and Midori is just a bitch. Midori falls under multiple stereotypes of villains. Such as ā€œthe mastermindā€, ā€œevil incarnateā€ (lmao),ā€related to the protagonistā€ etc. Midori is evil, there is no denying in this, he is purely evil, and he doesnā€™t have a sad weepy backstory, he doesnā€™t feel empathy towards other, he is a despicable piece of shit who ruined so many lives. I wonā€™t list everything but here is a list of his crimes, murder, assault, domestic abuse, grooming, verbal abuse, and torture, crimes against humanity lmao, stalking, violent crimes, and participation in a cult. And his worst crime is being a pussy bitch of course. So now that we have put the bases up letā€™s really begin.
Hollywood has a hate boner against villains and I hate them for that.
Recently Hollywood decided that pure evil bad guys is actually a bad thing, so now they decided to do stupid side story with them, to give them ā€ā€ā€depthā€ā€ā€ since I guess how could we like those villains since they are bad. A great example of this is the Disney remakes which I loathe so much oh god I hate them. So first they did a maleficient it was okay honestly, then they did a freaking cruella movie where her mom gets killed by Dalmatians, thatā€™s not a joke, in the peter and wendy movie that nobody saw they decided to have made the captain hook be a lost boy who was abandoned by the lost boys and peter, oh also they decided that PETER CUT HIS HANDS OFF AND LEFT HIM TO DIE BECAUSE HOOK WANTED TO SEE HIS FAMILY. They are going to do a freaking mufasa movie, in no time I canā€™t wait to have a Ursula movie where itā€™s discovered that ariel killed all of her family in cold blood or somethingā€™s. So you might say whatā€™s the problem? I mean isnā€™t that supposed to make the story more interesting. No, no it doesnā€™t, because first they take all of the character personality traits and throw them in the bin, second they are supposed to be the vilain in a musical animated movies, I am not against complex villain, I love them, but by doing this, the original character doesnā€™t exist anymore. Just create original content with new interesting characters instead of doing stuff like this. Also itā€™s kind of funny than in all of those interpretation they take all the fun and sucks it out, what do I mean by fun, the gayness, Disney vilain are fun because they are camp, they are fabulous extravagant extra in all the ways possible, and thatā€™s the reason we liked them. Not every character needs something super deep, like ā€œmy family was burned down at the stake and my dog was eaten by my exā€, sometimes we just like bad fun people, they are the story, and Hollywood hating them so bad just bothers me a lot. Also now the new thing is to not have a villain at all which can works in some narrative but not all of them, it gets boring after a while. In the past people were angry that villains are bland, but now I kind of miss it. While I will critique villains who have no purpose outside of being evil thatā€™s dumb, like for example Voldemort is bland like white bread because his only motivation is being evil, but evil people do exist compared to what some Hollywood writers think, they should know. So thatā€™s why I will put a difference between evil villains and villains whose only purpose is being evil; we loved Disney villains but they still had motivations, goals, reasons that to them a least were worth everything. World domination isnā€™t enough, why do you want world domination, what is the true reason deep in your heart, is it an inferiority complex, is it a savior complex fuelled by xenophobic beliefs.
That is how to write a pure evil villain, evil people exist all over the world, but I have never seen one who doesnā€™t have they own reasons to be so bad, it doesnā€™t excuse their actions nor really explains them. We do not want justifications we want explanations. If you are justifying evil behavior then do it, but donā€™t claim that it is a pure evil character. A pure evil character can be fun, can be interesting, he can be deep, itā€™s all about balancing all of their traits to truly make them greats. Which is why midori succeeds while current villains fail. Current stupid remake/spin off try to justify the behavior because they feel like this is what the audience wants, but itā€™s not what we need. So I will defend to the grave evil villains.
Creating an evil villain doesnā€™t make them boring guys.
Why the heck does big budget movies have either the blandest protagonist or the blandest villains sometimes both, like I said evil people do exist but comically evil character only works in satire not in a serious multiple millions of dollar movie. Example that boring ass avatar movie, the one with blue people, none of the characters are interesting the villain is one note. The lords of the rings also suffers from that, but I donā€™t care because the protagonist are so awesome that sauron being personality less doesnā€™t matter. Also sauron is more of a force of nature villains so itā€™s not the same. The recent kingsman movie has a bland one note villain, there is nothing entertaining, funny, about him heā€™s just evil, borrrrring. Every Disney remakes depiction of the characters are boring. I just feel bored out of my mind. Atla one of my favorite shows of all time has a main villain thatā€™s kinda one note, Ozai, but he is actually intimidating guy, azula is the superior character, but I wouldnā€™t consider her a villain she is an antagonist though. I honestly donā€™t get why Hollywood thinks that just creating a character with no personality and whose only goals is to be evil is good.
So back to midori for a second, here is my question, when midori was on screen did you ever feel bored? Never right! Because despite midori being an evil character he has an actual personality, heā€™s fun, you want to punch him in the balls. Because midori has other personality traits than evil, midori is petty, childish, extremely intelligent, controlling, a natural manipulator, he is a trickster, he doesnā€™t seem to get some social norms, he is narcissistic, easily angry, and fears death etc See how I counted a lot of traits, traits that in other character would works, midori has positive traits, and I think that is the best thing nankidai could have ever done, midori has traits that a regular person could have. Which is why if I put midori in any settings his character would work.
Example, instead of a death game the cast is under the sea to discover the insane wildlife and supernatural stuff happening, what would midori do in this situation? Well he would very passionate about finding all of whatā€™s happening, heā€™ll do anything to find out, even sometime sacrificing others, not only will he try to find whatā€™s happening, but he is also going to try to find a way to make this discovery favour him in the end. Or letā€™s imagine itā€™s a vampire situation, where a vampire attacksĀ  the city, midori would try to stop it, not because he cares, but to experiment on them to get their biology and finds the real secret of immortality since he fears death.
Here is my second advice, after creating your character try to imagine them in another completely different situation, like normal life, or a fantasy world, ask yourself the question what would they do in that environment? If you can find a real complete explanation of their actions then yes your character has multiples dimensions if not try thinking about it again. Some example of questions I do want to point out are some like ā€œif my character had all the power in the world what would they do first orā€, ā€œif my character had only a day left to live what would they doā€
Why is Current media incapable of creating good threats like bruhhhh.
Okay so first of all letā€™s talk about stakes in a story, letā€™s say you are watching a slasher movie, slowly the cast gets slimmed down and people die in horrible ways, that should set stakes right ? Well if the villain is an absolute buffoon who makes the stupidest actions and decisions in the world, you wouldnā€™t feel intimidated at all because despite what the filmmaker might try to say the plot armor will NEVER make a character intimidating. Itā€™s just like a detective character who just seems to know everything without a thought, well you wonā€™t really fear the character failing. Worse is the the final girl, who is for some reason always escaping the slasher guy by pure luck every time, she is shown as incompetent but still she survives, which make the villain seem completely incapable so now you feel nothing.
To avoid this filmmaker often use techniques such has unpredictability, I mean good I mean good ones, for example instead of immediately seeing whose going to survive because the black guys always dies first and the virgin white woman is the last survivor, change the status quo, make us think that this character is obviously safe while they actually arenā€™t at all. Or actually make them menacing by SHOWING to the audience how horrible dangerous they can be. Which is why SHOW DONā€™T TELL is so important, telling us how dangerous someone can be only to see them get beaten to death at the end of the movie makes us feel nothing.
Midori felt like a impossible person to beat, he is smart, had twenty plans in advance, even in situation where the cast felt like they might have a chance he was always armed, just like the gun he promised to use or the rocket punch. When they felt like they were finally advancing, he put obstacle in their ways, such as the collar game or the moment he put the collar on explode mode forĀ  ranmaru. The entire point in the murder game was to make time pass, it took a long time for the cast top realize that this whole time they were losing precious time not realizing that the dummies were the real problem. The characters that made you feel the most hopeless were the dummies, if you won by killing midori they would die, but if you lost you might lose people you love (keiji or gin). It felt hopeless because they were no solutions in the end. That creates tension so that creates stakes. If we were told how dangerous unpredictable sou was then it wouldnā€™t hit the same, we are shown that he is that terrible. There is a scene ingame where bbg shin ai tells us that midori tortured and like to destroy people. Thatā€™s exposition so TELL, but do you why it works, because we are SHOWN before his behavior. Midori felt unbeatable, so the fact that we were shown his weakness such has his petty behavior, hatred of minors, and fear of death, for the first time it feels like there is a chance that we might survive this. And still after he isnā€™t shown has an incompetent buffoon, he is one, but the narrative doesnā€™t show us that he is.
What is also consider is good to make the audience feel actual stakes is to first really develop well the main characters, how can we feel worry for a character if we donā€™t know them, the audience need to feels emotional connection to the main cast to actually care. You can use things such has moments where there is nothing special happening just character talking getting to know them. Make us feel why we need to care about them possibly losing, instead of being indifferent. Or I donā€™t know maybe make an entire spin off game where we get to have the cast talk to each other and seeing dynamics between character that died early to get them a chance to shine and make their death even more tragic, or even make mini episodes of characters who only got a single chapter to show off their characteristic, to get us to know them better? But thatā€™s just a silly idea of course, wink, and wink.
My favorite thing about Midori is that he is actually pathetic, like really pathetic, but weirdly realistic?
Midori is the most pathetic character in the cast, yes more than shin, shin is leagues less pathetic. No Iā€™m not saying that midori is not intimidating or scary, I would piss myself if I saw him. Heā€™s a scary guy. But if you look at him more closely you can see that he is a baby brat in a big boy suit.
So letā€™s start by something clear, Sou Hiyori clearly displays antisocial behavior, or in common terms he is a psychopath/sociopath, this illness is very badly seen in medias, I am not saying that people who lacks empathy like him are inherently bad, he is, a lot of people with antisocial behavior actually suffers a lot and have a difficult life. Sou real issues is not his antisocial behavior, itā€™s his narcissism and god complex. Sou feels the need to HAVE CONTROL over others, he like the feeling of being in power, he sees the rest of the world has beneath him, toys for his pleasure. He says that he ā€œreally like humansā€ because despite it all he seems to put himself in a different categories than regular people, they are beneath him. When he loses control his calm and cool behavior disappears and we see his true face, a grown man who has throws a tantrum like a baby. One of the best representation of this is midori views on the cast:
Midori hates kanna, like no jokes he has beef with her, a fourteen years old, actually he has beef with a lot of people in the cast. Midori views emotional people has weak, people who are loving optimistic as beneath him and useless. He preferred when sara was cruel and horrible, thatā€™s what he loved about her, he liked seeing her scary emotionless side. But Kanna, kanna is everything he hates. A crybaby who not only puts the group in harmony, is a source of hope in general, is the reason he near got to have closure with shin (killing him), he views kanna as ā€œnot fun shinā€. We have many proofs for this, if you type the word kanna kizuchi he says this: ā€œPoor Kanna'd weep! I think a more worthless name would be better for someone like meā€ He mocks her, but also himself (Iā€™lll come back on this later), he calls her worthless. Also in the electric charge minigame, when he can choose who to shocks he chooses two people in particular, kanna who he hates and hinako who ruined his fun by giving the cast a chance in saving ranmaru. But he does also says mean spirited stuff to other people, qtaro and gin. He also says some sarcastic comments about nao and joe, saying that itā€™s such a shame that they died so young. But you might say why kanna especially? Because he is a petty baby who is jealous of kanna, Yes jealous, of kanna, a fourteen years old. Because he feels like she stole his hubby wubby shin away from himā€¦. God I hate him. And you know what that make him a pathetic idiot, after the scene where kanna beats his ass, heā€™s all mad and like ā€œuhh Iā€™m going to pout I wanted you to cry like a lot, now Iā€™m gonna cryā€. An thatā€™s actually god, because it humanize him, he wants need thoughts, he isnā€™t one note, and thatā€™s the most important!
Sou is a villain but before that he is a character, a fully developed character, and THATā€™S WHAT MAKE HIM GREAT, Sou works because he works realistically, I mean if you forget the robot part, itā€™s easy to imagine a narcissist man child who needs to feel in power towards other, so his main prey are young vulnerable people.Which leads me to my next point:
Sou is a failure like really, and we arenā€™t sad for him.
Sou failed everything he worked on, he failed to get the paper from alice, he failed whith shin since he had to leave earlier than he thought he would leave, because of his mistake he lost his position in the death game, then he failed to kill gin or keiji, and then he died like an idiot losing his cool and acting like a toddler. And he knows it that why he is a bit self-hating (he should be). And yet none of us feel any sympathy towards him, why? Because sou is one of the most despicable guy in existence. He is a disgusting pervert, sadistic asshole, and abusive narcissistic cunt who thinks he is better than everyone. From the bottom of my heart I hate him sooooo much he is literally the character I hate the most in existence. He abused shin, ruined keijiā€™s life, traumatized the entire cast, literally assaulted sara like he physically assaulted her. He mocked nao and joe and kugie life as useless. He is an obsessive jerk AND I HATE HIM. And you know whatā€¦ā€¦ Itā€™s good. Like I actually feel a lot of emotions when I think about him, he fuels me with anger and disgust, and if your characters can make me feel that much rage then you did it, you created an actual perfect character. Hiyori is such a shit person that I think about him a lot, writers shouldnā€™t be scared to make a character such hittable assholes, example bojack horseman in bojack horseman is the vilest man on earth and I love it, because I genuinely hate him. Just like I genuinely love kanna, like really I really love her, I in the same time despise midori so bad. We hate him because he is horrible to good people that WE KNOW AND CARE ABOUT, not random npcs. There is a lot ofā€¦ disgusting implications in his story with shin that I will not talk about it makes me really uncomfortable right now. SO HERE IS A VERY TACKY TRANSITION TO TALK ABOUT WHY I HATE JUNKO FROM DANGANRONPA.
Junko is boring, thatā€™s it, she is boring, not funny not interesting, she is a fetish, she is the biggest Mary sue on earth, she is a gross character made to make fun of people with disabilities and queer people. Her only traits is being crazy, thatā€™s it. I wouldnā€™t call midori that crazy actually, heā€™s methodical calculated, and precise. Crazyness is a term for people who arenā€™t in control of their actions and delusional about reality, sou is not crazy, he knows what he is doing, he is in full control, while characters like shin should actually be consider crazy, like shin is actually crazy but sou isnā€™t.
Conclusion:
Sou is a breath of fresh air, because nankidai had the balls to write an actually interesting deep and threatening character AND make him a villain. He didnā€™t fall into the trap of making him have a sad backstory or good motives, sou is just selfish, thatā€™s all he is. He make him a fun entertaining guy who you absolutely hates, he made him threatening and at the same time a complete doofus. He made him humane and pathetic.
But the thing that make me love nankidai the most is this
Tumblr media
The fact that he actually killed him that takes courage as a writer to just end a character THAT WAY, which is why midori will never come back alive he is forever dead. And that take a lot of talents as a writer to just take one of the most important characters and just get him drilled to death in the anus, like dammn nankidai you are a savage. That fact alone makes him one of the best characters in game, I hate him as a person, but has a character he is a masterpiece.
Though Kanna could solo him

Throwing away their piles of tissues when they have a cold.
With Nico hischier!!
Thank you for requesting šŸ„° I know yall probably wanted to see nico taking care of reader, but as yall know I'm a slut for reader taking care of the boys and this just felt so perfect.
-
Nico was arguably the most stubborn mother fucker you had ever have the pleasure of meeting in your entire damn life. He was strong and kind and loving. He prioratized everyone before himself. Whether it be you, his family, his team, or a random fucking stranger on the street.
Which is how he ended up with the fucking plague. (It wasn't the plague, but your dramatics tended to get the better of you when you were mad at your boyfriend.)
"Nico Hischier, get your ass back in bed before I douse you with chloroform," you threatened, pushing his chest firmly back towards the bedroom.
"I'm fine, schatz-" he was cut off by a coughing fit that had him doubling over. Your demeanor did a complete 180Ā° as you stood beside him, rubbing his back soothingly and muttering sweet words.
"Seriously nico, my love," you say, cupping his face between both hands after his coughing fit had passed, "you need rest,"
"But the team-"
"The team will be fine. They are in good hands. Plus, the faster you rest up, the faster you can get back to it." You say, stroking your thumbs over his cheekbones. He's burning up, and it makes your heart pang in your chest.
"But Schatz i- "
"Nico, please." You beg with a sigh, "if not for your sake, then for mine, so I'm not worried about you?"
Nico concedes with a sigh, walking back to the bedroom, "Let it be known this is to ease your worries and, not because I am sick,"
You roll your eyes fondly, tucking him into bed, "Of course, my love. Thank you for resting, for me" you plant a tender kiss on his forehead.
"Schatz! Dont kiss me, what if you my germs?" He says hoarsely, trying to fight off another coughing fit.
You cross your arms, staring down at him smugly, "I thought you weren't sick?" You tease.
He pales, realizing his admission. He opens his mouth to try and form an excuse but breaks out coughing again. You shake your head and brush his head back from his forehead. "I'm going to get you some cough medicine."
Nico tried to protest, but he's too busy hacking his lungs out. You wince and hurry to the kitchen, scrambling through the medicine cabinet for the cough syrup. You grab a bottle of water and Gatorade and go back to the bedroom, where, thankfully, Nico's coughing fit is over.
Setting everything on the night stand you pour the cough syrup into the spoon and feed it to him gently.
"Egh," he sticks out his tongue in disgust. You can't help but giggle.
"I'm gonna make some fresh ginger tea and some soup, and you'll be right as rain in no time, ok honey?" You say smoothing the crease between his eyebrows.
Nico has given up the tough guy act. He nuzzels his head against your hand, and you place another kiss on his forehead, much to his disdain. "Do you want me to turn on a movie?"
Nico shakes his head, "I just want you," he says tugging on your arm.
"I know, honey, I know," you coo, "As soon as I'm done making you soup, ok?"
"Ok, don't take too long," he flashes his infamous puppy dog eyes, and you're practically melting at the seams. "Keep drinking lots of liquids, ok?"
He nods, "And I'm right in the kitchen, so just shout if you need anything,"
He nods again, and you press one last kiss to his forehead before turning on 101 Dalmatians for him on the TV.
The soup doesn't take long. It's your mom's famous chicken noodle soup recipe. You ladle the soup into a bowl and grind fresh ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, and honey into a paste and fill the rest of the cup with hot water.
Nico looks worse than before. His skin is pale and clammy, There's a pile of tissues on the nightstand. His nose looks red and irritated, and he's sniffling consistently. He has the duvet pulled all the way up to his chin, and it's tucked around his shoulders to keep the cold out. Your poor Nico.
You set the soup on the nightstand, along with the tea, and gather his pile of tissues to throw them out. "Come on, Nico, sit up for me," you nudge gently.
"Can't Schatz," he murmurs "too cold,"
You pad to the closet with a sigh and pull out one of Nicos fleece hoodies. "Put this on, baby." You say handing it to him. He reluctantly removes himself from his blanket cocoon and pulls the hoodie over his head. He takes the bowl of soup gratefully, and you slip under the blankets beside him, curling against his side.
"Thank you, my love," he murmurs, pressing a kiss against your forehead.
You wrinkle your nose, "Ew, I don't want your germs Neeks!" You squeak, dramatically rubbing his kiss off your forehead.
He chuckles and then coughs. After he finishes his soup and complains the entire time he drinks the tea, the two of you fall asleep curled into one another. And if a week a later Nico is the one spoon feeding you medicine, and disposing of your snotty tissues well...
That's what love is.

Tumblr media
You
Lo'ak x Tayrangi! Reader
Warnings: mistaken identity kind of, teens having fun, arranged marriage, fighting/arguments, how they meet is very 101 Dalmatians and i love it, they're both oblivious asf
Tumblr media
Neytiri sent Lo'ak to go collect fruits from the grove near the other end of the Omaticaya territory. Normally he'd complain about extra chores, but not today. It was one of the better tasks to be landed with, anyway, even if it would consume his whole day.
But then Jake said Lo'ak could take his ikran, and that would cut the journey in half at least. Maybe more, since Lo'ak, like every other teenager, was all too fond of letting his ikran set the pace. Which, more often than not, simply meant break-neck speed, especially since Lo'ak's ikran was as young as himself in ikran years, according to Neytiri, and just as headstrong.
Lo'ak's ikran, named Spitfire by Jake in one of his rare moments of fatherly affection, was raring to go, practically launching himself into the air the second Lo'ak settled on his back and made the bond.
Kiri had, at one point, taken to calling the ikran Spitty, resulting in Lo'ak pitching a fit and pulling her hair, which then meant days of not speaking to each other. Lo'ak still got sulky every time he remembered the undignified name.
Lo'ak whooped, punching his fist in the air, gripping tightly with his thighs and trusting Spitfire not to let him fall, or at least to catch him if he did. The wind whistled past him, snatching at his braids, whipping a brisk flush into his face.
It was a good day. The sun was already high in the sky, warm on his back despite the wind. The air was heady with the scent of flowers coaxed into bloom by the warm weather, even at this height.
Spitfire, after a little urging from Lo'ak, evened out, gliding smoothly through the sky, occasionally letting out a screech of contentment. Lo'ak settled back, keeping one hand on the handle and feeling for the pouch strapped across his hips Neytiri had given to him to store the fruits in, making sure it was strapped on securely.
It wouldn't take him long to gather enough fruits to satisfy Neytiri. Maybe a few hours.
Maybe more if he decided to take a nap. Lo'ak loved naps, especially deep in the forest amidst the undergrowth, where he could burrow himself into the sun-warm grass and no one would bother him for hours. He probably liked them so much because they restored all the energy he burned living up to Jake's expectations. Very high expectations.
Yeah, he could use a nap. It was just that kind of day.
And it would give him time to think, too. About what his parents had told him a few days ago. About how, since Neteyam had mated with the youngest child of the Olangi olo'eyktan, Lo'ak would do the same, but with the only child of the Tayrangi olo'eykte.
It would benefit the Omaticaya, Neytiri had soothed him, smoothing a hand over his braids. These kinds of unions would prevent any conflict and better the relationships with other tribes. Jake, on the other hand, had told him there was no wriggling out of it, and he'd be mating with this stranger before the end of the year whether he liked it or not.
Comforting, right?
Neteyam had tried to comfort him over it. It was easy for Neteyam. He and his mate were arranged too, but they were crazy about each other, and Neteyam had always wanted to settle down and have a mate of his own and a family anyway. It was why he'd bent so easily to their parents' decision.
And it was easy for Kiri too. She was their dad's favourite, his babygirl. She wouldn't get married off to Aonung or some other guy if she didn't want to. Lucky shit.
Tuk was... well, she didn't have to worry about marriage for a good while yet.
But Lo'ak did. He didn't care about maintaining good relationships with other tribes, or having a mate of his own and settling down. He didn't care about any of that shit. He just wanted his freedom, and the freedom to choose who he mated with. Was that too much to ask?
Apparently so.
Spitfire shrieked, and a ripple of confusion and panic hit Lo'ak through the bond, right as something large and colourful shot past them like a flash of lightning.
Lo'ak caught a glimpse of a face with an equally panicked expression, then swore as Spitfire reared and shrieked again. Though this time, instead of confusion in the bond, all Lo'ak felt was a sudden burst of childish joy, right before Spitfire dived after the other ikran.
Lo'ak yelled in exhilaration as both ikrans went into a nosedive, and crouched low over Spitfire's back, knuckles going white as he tightened his grip. It was dangerous, and if his parents found out, he'd never hear the end of it, but they weren't here now and Lo'ak found this was too much fun for him to care.
He whooped, and heard an answering cry from the rider of the other ikran below, you, which made something in his heart twist with further excitement.
Spitfire was uncontrollable with the excitement of having what was probably another young ikran to play with, and Lo'ak let him have his head, content to just go along for the ride.
The other ikran straightened out before it hit the canopy, and Spitfire followed, flying alongside, steadying himself with a few flaps.
"Sorry," you called, face flushed and apologetic, but then began laughing breathlessly. "Great Mother, I am so sorry! Kikorangi- my ikran- saw you down below and he just took off-"
"It's okay," Lo'ak shouted back, smiling uncontrollably at you. You were probably the most attractive person he'd ever seen, so one couldn't exactly blame him for being so quick to forgive you for the scare. "But I've never seen you before. You're not Omaticaya, are you?"
He didn't have to ask. He knew you weren't. You looked like a young warrior from another tribe, like him. Your skin was covered in a pearly white paint, in swirling patterns. It was mesmerising.
"What?" you called, then raised your eyes skyward, laughing again. "I can't hear you. Wait there."
Lo'ak blinked, confused, as you steered your ikran up and over his head, flying along above him. He tilted his head back, looking up, trying to see what you were doing, only to nearly smack heads with you. You were performing some risky manoeuvre, sliding around to the underbelly of your ikran, gripping on with only your thighs, swinging upside down and smiling at Lo'ak, eyes bright and beautiful, nose nearly brushing against his.
You chuckled at his stunned expression, then righted yourself and leapt down onto Spitfire, breaking the bond with your own ikran. Spitfire jerked at the foreign addition to his cargo, and tilted his head, shooting you a baleful look.
Lo'ak stiffened as you seated yourself behind him, one arm loosely around his stomach, making his abs tense beneath your warm skin, your thighs pressing against his own. "Sorry, what were you saying?" you asked airily, mouth next to his twitching ear, like this wasn't the most intimate position he'd ever been in.
Words failed him. He could only hold very still, in the hopes you wouldn't become uncomfortable and move away. He liked having you there, the weight of your body against his back comforting.
But you shifted back, away from him, laughing again, and the sound rang through his mind, etching itself into the walls of his skull. "Sorry," you apologised for a third time. "I didn't mean to freak you out."
"It's okay," Lo'ak replied almost robotically, words feeling clumsy and foreign on his tongue. Great Mother, get it together! he told himself firmly. There's a beautiful warrior cuddling up to you, wanting to talk and all you can say is it's okay?!
He forced himself to relax, turning his head and smiling crookedly at you over his shoulder.
Your face was like the sun. You seemed to be lit with a golden, gleaming warmth from the inside out, and it honestly made him a little dizzy.
"I was just asking what tribe you're from," he repeated.
"Tayrangi," you answered blithely. "You must be Omaticaya, I guess."
Lo'ak nodded, noting that you were from the same tribe as his future mate. He didn't want to bring that up, though, figuring if he was to have any chance with you he shouldn't bring up his imminent union.
Even though he wouldn't be able to pursue you because of said union... What the tribes didn't know couldn't hurt them, right?
"That's sick," Lo'ak said, smiling that same lopsided smile at you. "Never met any from the Tayrangi before."
"Never met an Omaticaya before either," you grinned back, leaning back on your hands.
"Am I living up to your expectations?" he teased, gathering all his courage to do so, ears drooping slightly in apprehension of your response.
"Who said I had any expectations?" you teased back, nudging the back of his thigh with your knee, sending hot flames of want up his spine.
Lo'ak rolled his eyes, but couldn't hide his delight at finding someone who could match him blow for verbal blow. "Oh, come on!" he scoffed. "You came all the way here, you must've thought about what we'd be like at some point!"
"Maybe I did," you agreed, and the glint in your eyes told him you were being purposefully elusive.
"Go on, then," he encouraged. "Am I everything you hoped?"
You pretended to think, finger pressing into your chin, eyes fixed on the clouds above. Then you smiled again. "Nope."
Lo'ak scoffed again, preparing to fire back some surely witty retort, before you inched forward again, leaning on his back, arm tightening around his middle again, pressing your lips to his ear decisively.
"You're better."

OKAY. HERE WE GO. my black bulls doggies!!!! :D
there's definitely a noticeable difference in style/quality of some of these just due to time between each design and/or how i was feeling at the time of drawing them (these hot and rainy summer months have been super rough on me)
ALSO they were all done symmetrically so that i wouldn't burn out and could actually finish them LOL . OK EVERYBODY BELOW
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
starting off with asta, a husky/coyote mutt!! :D in my au, devil users end up becoming hybrids of whatever their devil is. so since liebe is a coyote, that's what asta is too!! (also, i haven't drawn him yet, but yuno is a malamute :D similar looking breeds but different since they're not actually related!)
Tumblr media
(here's liebe too hehe, scrappy lil coyote!!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
then of course, noelle, who's a saluki!! a very regal breed for a very royal gal!! i thought making her pigtails into her ears was a fun idea HEHEHE
Tumblr media
(+ an alternate design version!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
here's finral, he's a shetland sheepdog!! gentle and sweet and always trying to herd his people together :) you might notice that with some of my designs, i end up doing extra scarring; that's usually just personal headcanons, as i think some injuries would be too grievous to fully heal. though some (for instance, gauche) don't have a canon story behind them, i just think they're fitting
Tumblr media Tumblr media
vanessa, who's a cavalier king charles spaniel!! her ears sorta blend into her hair lol, i had an alternate version where they were the same darker brown as her fur but i decided that them blending in looked better and fit the breed standard as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
gauche, the ever wary american akita!! being a fiercely loyal and protective breed, but aloof and suspicious of strangers.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
then there's grey, who's a long-haired chihuahua!! sweet and skittish HEHE, also i haven't drawn it yet but i've always imagined her big transformation disguise that she's first introduced as to be a rottweiler LOL
Tumblr media Tumblr media
next up is luck, a jack russell terrier!! i've always thought this was a very fitting breed pick, intelligent but highly energetic and a little mischievous !!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and of course, magna is never far behind luck; he's a dobermann pinscher!! similar to luck in energy and intelligence, but even more fiercely protective of his loved ones.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
GORDON!!! actually one of my favourite black clover characters, he's a dalmatian not only because of the fitting aesthetic, but also because of his kind and sensitive personality!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the masked supermage zora, a german shepherd! watchful and sometimes stubborn but loyal nonetheless made this pick fairly easy to come to. though, before getting to see more of him, my initial pick was actually a kai ken!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
charmy's design is one that i'm the most proud of for sure; i mentioned in an earlier post that the different peoples are different species of animals. well charmy is a half toy poodle, half american badger!! i thought a badger was a VERY fitting pick, as they are generally unbothered by much unless their food is threatened LOL
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and finally, lastly (for now) is nero!! she's a bull terrier, but i really wanted to keep her twin tails from her anti-bird form! her outfit is definitely the one i edited the most, i just wanted to give her something more practical out of personal preference.
additionally, henry is an old english sheepdog, nacht is a black norwegian elkhound/fox, and yami is a wolfdog!
I HAVE SOME OTHER CHARACTERS DOODLED HERE AND THERE but nothing else really finished yet. if there's a specific character anyone would like to see i would be SO happy to draw/doodle them to show off!! i honestly have a huge list of dog/cat breeds picked out for every character i could think of; i just am hellishly indecisive and can never pick who to start on next AHDSJAGDJSDK
THE POSITIVE RECEPTION TO MY ART SO FAR HAS MADE ME SO HAPPY BTW AUAGGHHH i have no idea how/if im able to reply to people directly but just know that i keep reading over everyone's reblog tags and stimming like crazy IM SO HAPPY THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH AUHGHFEHGGRH

Im not finished with Carlos fully but he looks good enough for right now ( heā€™s 22 in this picture here)
Tumblr media
I changed Carlos and Evie up, so now Evie is a vain witch like her mother who is fashionable but she doesnā€™t sew her own stuff. ( which is for the better cse wtf was that ugly ass dress she made for Mal in D2???)
Carlos considers himself to be a very expensive person and can be pretty big germaphobe. He hates getting anything on his clothes and he refuses to wear the school uniforms at Auradon Uni because theyā€™re ugly. He wears lots of black white grey and red, with gold accents usually. He does theme around dog associated items like gold bone cutlets, paw print lapel chains, and a tennis ball brooch. He often wears red gloves and his favorite shoes are his collection of red bottom dress shoes. He likes hiding red on the interlining of his clothes too, such as his jackets and hats and vests.
A lot of his own person style is derived from 1990s London fashion ( as the artist that means I get my references from the 1996 101 Dalmatians live action movie, the styling of Cruela in that movie is ICONIC AND IMACULATE, and I MUST reference her for Carlos.
Tumblr media
PURRRR
Of course he wears REAL animal print. And heā€™s not a weak touch me not prick like some think. Heā€™s still tech savvy and does Anyalitics and specs for the core four. He also loves GUNS šŸ˜„. Think of him like a sharp shooter who stays in the back of turf wars and snipes people. The isle doesnā€™t have many marks men ( they all really like swords for some reason) so heā€™s pretty dangerous. He builds his own weapons too.
His passion started out as a way for him to collect his own furs but Harry gets him most of what he needs plus he always needs Carlos to redo his wardrobe ( he getsā€¦ messyā€¦ after a couple days work) Carlos hates that Harry ruins his creations so fast but he pays him well and gifts him rare fabrics and samples from Auradon.
Because Carlos has no magic Mal always underestimates him. She sees him as only a stylist and ranged weapon specialist. Even tho she acknowledges him for his wit and tech skills she still doesnā€™t listen to him. Sometimes he wishes he could stay with Harry but then heā€™d have to do more work up front. Harry understood what Carlos was capable of and respected him a lot. What Harry doesnā€™t understand is that not everybody likes to be covered head to toe in hot sticky blood 24/7. Harry had also promised him a suite on his boat that nobody else was allowed to occupy, but even if Harryā€™s crew feared HARRY they wouldnā€™t mind having an attitude with CARLOS for preferential treatment, even if it is what he deserves šŸ™„
Harry and Carlosā€™s relationship is the definition of there are two wolves inside you. Carlos smokes and drinks but heā€™s more of a Marlboro and Merlot type of guy and Harryā€™s a Rum and Cigar kinda lad. ( Iā€™m using cartoon logic and say that those habits are purely aesthetic based of iconography from the original Disney moves, Cruella smokes and Capt. Hook smokes two cigars at once)
Carols isnā€™t really scared of dogs anymore but when he arrives at Auradon he ā€œbefriendsā€ his roommate Chad ( now an animal lover like his mother) who has pet rats and a entourage of wild animals constantly in their dorm, and threatens to shoot and skin them all every single day to make a new line of coats ( when Chad rebuttals that his rats are too small to make coats, Carlos says theyā€™d make the perfect fuzzy gloves šŸ’€) He also uses Chad as a living mannequin for his designs. They have a goofy relationship with each other, Carlos does make Chad do all the dirty work of skinning and draining the animals he hunts but despite how traumatic that is Carlos is a fun sweet guy so itā€™s okay šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€.
Jay is jelly of Carlos due to his closeness with Harry. ( I guess the way to Jays heart and respect is by holding him at sword point and threatening to gut him and hang him by those very guts over shark infested waters and watch them nibble away at him šŸ’€)
Next Iā€™ll find up Carlos and do some fit designs then Iā€™ll redesign Jay and tell that gutting story šŸ˜›
