#he doesn't care leo has a wife

[fcaruana]

Who would you take as your plus one to a wedding? [Options left are: Charles Leclerc & Lionel Messi]

- Lionel! - What a great duo! going to a wedding together with Leo... - But I marry him. I marry Leo at the wedding. - Well, but he's with Anto.. - Yeah, yeah.

[keto-keyes]

Let's do this, shall we?

So i had this idea for a Batmom!Au where Bruce didn't marry her for love, but out of convenience for both of them. They're childhood friends and they care about each other in a friendly "i hope you don't die" kinda way, but it's strictly unromantic.

See in my head, Batmom is an assassin by trade, and she and Bruce have crossed paths a few times, but she has a pretend day job of a reporter. She's somewhat famous in Gotham (and the rest of the world) for always being the first to the scene of the crime and the first to find some missing link. It's typically her own work that she reports, and the batkids have noticed that she always seems to be lurking. So they investigate, but they don't really find anything out except that she has instagram.

But anyway, back to Bruce. The two of them met up after like 20 years seeing each other here and there, basically never, at a gala. She's still using the reporter cover, talking to some other ladies, when he comes over and wraps a hand around her waist like it's natural. He's with some of the older and richer of gotham, the ladies who want him married so his kids don't cause them any more trouble. She just looks up at him and smile naturally, warmly. Officially, she's there for a job, unofficially, she just wants to socialise. Bruce introduces her as his wife, and the ladies swoon. They look like a perfect couple, so she plays along. Then she tells him her own plan. He doesn't try to stop her, of course, they aren't actually married, but tells her to keep up the act.

They get married on a whim, just like that.

I'm going to write a few fics on this idea, maybe long ones, so tell me if it's a good idea or not. Also, should I name this character? or leave it up to the audience. I'm also going to elaborate on the family side of things as well, like the kids and home life, paparazzi, work, things like that.

What does the batfam think????? Is it a good idea???

-Leo :)

Masterlist

Stepcest, Stepson!Coryo x Stepmother!Reader, Sub!Coriolanus, Switch!Reader, Crassus Snow x Younger!Reader

WARNING ⚠️ Coriolanus Snow is a warning in and of itself. Crassus Snow is a cold hearted asshole, but he's a hot asshole... Stepcest, older man/younger woman, arranged marriage, cheating, affairs, secrets, cussing, secret love child, Coryo is a bit selfish and too ambitious, Crassus decides to try and be a better husband/father

Part 5:

Crassus' secretary was nervous as he wracked his brain for what to tell his boss. Where should he start when it comes to giving the cold, stern, and very imposing man advice about the little things he should do for his wife. Leo doesn't want to overstep. He doesn't know anything about Crassus' marriage to you, so he's afraid to give any advice.

But as Leo felt his boss’ stare pinning him into his desk chair he decides to give the imposing platinum blonde some simple, but vital advice of, “If you really want to make your wife smile then just ask her about her day.”

Crassus nods, only to say, “But I already know how her day is, she takes care of the baby all day.”

“I didn't know that you have a baby, General Snow.”

“Yes.” The stern man with slicked back platinum hair proudly grins. “He's a week old.”

Leo nods, feeling a bit awkward with the conversation he's having with his boss. How is it that Crassus has a week old baby with his wife, but is seeking advice on how to make his wife happy? He made the miracle of life with her, shouldn't he know how to interact with her? Or is it an arranged marriage full of surface level interaction?

Yea, it must be an arrangement lacking social interactions past the expected ones in the marriage bed.

“Well, Sir, I don't want to overstep, but I think that your wife would appreciate you asking about her day with the baby even if you assume you know how it went.” Leo told Crassus, hoping that he wouldn't offend his boss since he really needed his job. He has bills to pay, you know.

“Hmm…” Crassus nods.

“Oh, and don't interrupt her even if what she's talking about sounds mundane and boring. Just nod and wait for an opening to compliment her story with a ‘that’s nice’, or an ‘oh, really’.” Leo adds in, figuring that Crassus seems like the type that needs the reminder.

“And this’ll work, make my wife happy?” Crassus asks, his voice as hard as stone.

“Most women like feeling important and letting them talk about their day uninterrupted does that.” Leo Davis explained what all husbands should know. But, as it turns out, Crassus is the exception to the rule.

“Ah.” The imposing war hero half-nods. “My first wife and I didn't live together for more than a few weeks at a time; I was deployed in 12 as the Commander during that marriage, so I'll take your word for it when it comes to communicating with my current wife.” Crassus remarks before turning his back to his secretary and returning to his office to work on something vital to Panem's national security’s budget proposal that's due to be sent to President Ravenstill for review soon.

Meanwhile, deep in the bowels of Dr. Gaul’s lab that's housed in the Citadel…

Coriolanus followed Dr. Gaul inside of the sterilized white room, bright fluorescent lights revealing that the test subject wasn't a rat or even a new mutt, but a human. A girl to be exact.

The blonde boy's baby blue eyes widened slightly at the girl, who was all skin and bones, that was tied to a metal lab table with 4-point restraints. Looking between the girl and his mentor, Coriolanus curiously asks, “What're we going to do to her?”

“Bibity, bobity, Snow’s first lobotomy.” The mad scientist sing-songed, gesturing towards an instructional guide, a drill, and a tool that looked like an ice pick that was on the surgical tray table by the subject’s mental bed.

Coriolanus was a bit confused. He learned in psychology class that the lobotomy procedure is controversial and banned. “But I thought that medical practice was banned by Panem's founding fathers?” He asks his mentor, wondering why she was going to have him perform it

“Yes, the procedure has been banned on civilized humans, such as the people residing in this very city, but your test subject today is nothing more than a lab rab- a rebellious little girl that was caught rummaging in the woods outside of District 12 like an animal.” Dr. Gaul told Coriolanus while going over to a cabinet on the other side of the room and grabbing a pair of blood red latex gloves for her protege to perform the operation on.

“The sooner you realize that the people of the districts are no better than animals the better equipped at ruling and controlling them you'll be.” The salt and pepper frizzy haired woman told her pupil while walking over to him, red gloves in hand. “I see a greatness in you, Young Snow. A greatness to be even more successful in ruling over others then your father, Crassus.” Dr. Gaul tells Coriolanus while stopping in front of him and handing him over the gloves.

“You think I could be greater than my father?” Coriolanus asks, taking the gloves from his mentor.

“Oh, I know so, Coriolanus Snow. In fact, I believe that you'll make Panem proud with all the wonderful things you're capable of.” Dr. Gaul told Coriolanus, inflating his ego. “I'll be leaving you alone with the test subject to perform the procedure. I’ve left instructions; I'm sure you can handle this on your own.”

“Of course I can, Dr. Gaul.” The ambitious young blonde assured the mad scientist. Even if the thought of performing a lobotomy on a little girl turned his stomach, he'd do it to prove himself to his mentor.

His mentor who thought he'd be a greater man than his father, the war hero General Crassus Snow.

“Make sure to keep your rest subject talking during the procedure; if she stops talking then you either drilled in too far or cut out too much brain matter. But either way, if she's damaged I'll have you dispose of her.” Dr. Gaul told Coriolanus, acting as if she was giving him instructions on how to remove an ingrown toenail, before walking out of the room and leaving her protege alone with the little girl from 12- the poor test subject doomed to be a lab rat because she wasn't viewed as a human in the mad scientist eyes.

“Please, stop, it hurts! It hurts!” The girl, whose golden pigtails were tangled and matted against the metal examining table, screamed at the top of her lungs as Coriolanus was drilling a hole into her skull.

“Shut up or else I could kill you, fucking animal.” Coriolanus snapped at his test subject while continuing to drill thru her skull.

“The things by my eye and it hurts.” The little girl cried as the drill moved right next to her eyeball, breaking thru the skull bone in her eye socket.

“Damnit, you cry more than my son does and he's a baby.” Coriolanus grumbled as the bit of the drill hit a small piece of the test subject’s brain while breaking all the way thru her skull.

Meanwhile on the Corso in the Snow family 12th floor penthouse…

You're sitting in the main room of your penthouse, watching Grandma'am rocking Cassian in her arms while cooing at the baby. The sight of your mother-in-law holding your son puts a smile on your melancholy face. It made you feel like you weren't alone in taking care of your baby; made you realize that you had support during your motherhood journey.

“I’m glad that you're a hands-on grandmother, Grandma'am.” You honestly tell the old woman as your son's icy blue eyes start to flutter heavily from being rocked.

“Oh, my sweet dear, I must admit that I'm happy to have a new baby in the house to breathe fresh life into it.” Grandma'am told you while gesturing that she wanted to pass the baby back to you. Since you're sitting next to each other on the sofa, it'll be easy to take the baby back from her. As you extend your arms for your mother-in-law to place the baby into, she tells you, “Cassian Xandros is just what you and Crassus’ marriage needs to grow and evolve into something more than a surface level bond.”

Cassian blinks his icy eyes at you and smiles before closing them. Your son reminds you so much of his father; your lover- Coriolanus. You can't help, but feel a hollow feeling inside of your soul as you think about how Coriolanus seems too worried about himself then you and the baby. That his studies and internship seem to mean more to him than the family he created with you.

A family he begged you to have.

Honestly, you and Crassus never discussed the possibility of having children. You got married shortly after graduating the Academy and he usually pulled out whenever he did fuck you. And since the subject of children never came up, you just assumed that your marriage would be childless. You even told Coryo that once or twice, which is why he was so desperate to give you a baby. Coriolanus wanted to give you something he knew that only he could give; something to tie you and him together forever.

But now that you're home with Grandma'am and the baby all day with a lack of support from both your husband and your lover, well…

Let's just say that you'll be talking to your doctor about birth control options during your 6-weeks postpartum check up.

“I don't think Cassian's going to fix my loveless marriage with your son." You bluntly tell your mother-in-law while gently rocking your son in your arms. “I doubt he truly even wanted to become a father again either.”

“Oh, Y/N, don't say that.” Grandma'am firmly tells you. “Crassus comes across as if he doesn't care, but he does. He's just a stern man, my dear.” She assures you while patting your shoulder in a motherly fashion.

“He threatened to get rid of Cassian if he was born a girl instead of a boy, Grandma'am.” You remind the old woman, who's bejeweled turbin shines like a disco ball in the bright light of the sun. “Cassian’s just a spare male heir for Crassus, nothing more and nothing less.”

And now you wonder if Coriolanus even loves your son. He rarely spends time with your baby, always using his studies as an excuse not to help with diaper changes or settling the baby down. Hell, it seems like Coryo spends more time at the University’s library than he does in Cassian's nursery.

“Y/N, dear, you have to understand that Crassus' first wife, Demeter, died in premature labor brought on by the first rebel bombings. That along with Demeter, their daughter Calla was too tiny to survive and died less than an hour after being born.”

“I'm not Demeter and my baby's not hers either, Grandma'am. I think Crassus is smart enough to know that considering he works for the Ministry of War as the Minister of National Security.” You state with a slight edge to your voice. Rising from the sofa, you announce, “I'm going to put him down; then I'll make some cucumber sandwiches for our tea time.”

“Despite looking like your mother you act awfully a lot like your father, so I hope you won't write off my son because he thinks he doesn't deserve an ounce of happiness in his life due to his previous failures.” Grandma'am tells you as you begin to walk away from the sofa and towards the hallway.

You don't respond to her, just keep walking away. Honestly, you don't want to think about let alone talk about her last words to you. You can't because they give a plausible reason for your husband's cold and indifferent attitude.

Crassus walks inside of his penthouse determined to put the advice Leo gave him to good use. He even came home at a decent hour instead of right when dinner’s being served. The sound of your husband's loafers echoing on the marble floor makes you furrow your brow. Crassus never comes home before 7 and it's nearly 6:30, so you're a bit startled.

You're watching your son as he sits in his swing when your husband comes in, briefcase clutched in his hand. But, instead of taking his briefcase to his office he places it on the glass coffee table and takes a seat on his sitting chair, which is caddy cornered to the sofa you're on. The stoic platinum blonde looks around, only to ask, “Where's mother and Coriolanus?”

“Grandma'am's visiting Pluribus; I'm sure she'll be home within the next 15 minutes.” You tell Crassus, earning a nod from him. “And Coriolanus never came home, so I assume he's in the University library burning the midnight oil in preparation for his upcoming finals.” You add in, since he did inquire about his firstborn son after all.

“I imagine once he graduates and officially becomes an Assistant Gamemaker under Dr. Gaul that he'll be keeping odd hours since the scientist practically lives in her lab.” Crassus knowingly remarks. But before you could make a reply, he gives you a thin smile and asks, “So, Petal, how was your day?”

What? Did he just ask you how your day was? What's wrong with him? He never asks you that? In fact he rarely talks to you at all if it isn't about something mundane, something that needs discussing.

“Um, I talked to Grandma’am and tended to the baby.” You tentatively answer your husband. In a way, you think it's a trick and Crassus is just going to chuckle and leave the room. It's not like he sits around chatting with you, far from it.

‘What did you and Grandma'am talk about?” Crassus pries, hoping that you'll smile or something if you relay to him what you and his mother spoke about.

But you just wave him off with a simple, “Ladies things, nothing you need to worry about.”

And then Crassus remembers that a mother's joy is her child, so he asks, “Well, how was our son today?”

“Oh, Cassian’s been good today.” You answer with a smile. A smile that your cold, unfeeling husband can't help, but wants to see permanently painted on your face. “But he's always a good baby.”

The fact that your husband was now showing an interest in your week old son had your head spinning. You're taken aback that he seems concerned about Cassian. You thought that the baby was just a spare heir to Crassus, so him asking about the baby made you wonder what was up with him. Did he suddenly decide to step up as a father or did he get abducted by aliens?

You hope it's the former. You really do. “Do you want to hold him?” You ask Crassus before you can think better of it.

“I'll get him from the swing, just sit down and tell me about what you and our boy got up to today.” Crassus told you, rising to his feet.

Watching him walk the few yards to collect your son from his baby swing, you begin to tell your husband about your day with the baby. Albeit, you think you'll probably bore him out of his mind, but you tell him anyway.

And a few minutes later when Grandma'am comes home from visiting Pluribus, she sees Crassus sitting on his sitting chair, cradling Cassian while you're telling your husband about being peed on while changing a shitty diaper. Crassus was laughing, causing you to tell him that it wasn't funny before bursting into a giggle fit of your own.

And the sight made Grandma'am hopeful that you and her son would work things out. She doesn't interrupt the family moment, instead she goes to the kitchen to inquire about dinner from the cook.

But your family moment with Crassus and Cassian does get interrupted by Coriolanus when he storms into the main room. He's got a hauntes look in his icy eyes as he scoffs, “Oh, father, I see you're acting like you suddenly care about mommy and the baby. How nice of you to act like a family man for once.”

“Coriolanus, unless you want me to cut off your allowance I advise you to watch your tongue.” Crassus scolds his firstborn, his icy eyes narrowed in warning.

“Dinner should be ready soon, I better put Cassian down.” You announce, cutting the tension in the air like a knife, as you bolt up from the sofa and rush over to Crassus.

“Mommy, can I see him before you put him down?” Coriolanus asks, watching as his father hands his son over to you.

“If you wanted to see him then you shouldn't have spent the entire afternoon in the library. It's dinner time; he needs a nap.” You tell Coryo before walking by him and going to the nursery.

“That’s not fair, Y/N-” Coriolanus begins to shout while starting to follow you, only to be cut off by Crassus jumping up to his feet and stopping him with a firm hand around his arm and the order of, “Leave my wife alone, Coriolanus. If you want to see your brother so badly then see him after dinner.”

Coriolanus yanks his arm out of his father's hold, only to give him a pissy look and storm off towards the dining room. The younger Snow thinks it's ridiculous how he has to bow down to his father when it comes to you and the baby. He hates how he has to watch his family be claimed by his father, who in his opinion doesn't deserve you or the baby.

Coriolanus swears that once he becomes successful he's going to take you and the baby away from his father. In fact, the young man with the light blonde curls is certain that he'll be successful sooner rather than later given how well his first lab experiment went. He successfully did the procedure without any harm to the lab rat and since he did so well, Dr. Gaul has agreed to let him monitor the vitals on it; to conduct more experiments as well.

As long as he keeps impressing the mad scientist and soaking in her beliefs like a sponge he's certain that he'll become a bigger success than his father. That he'll have the power to make you his and to claim your son as his.

[shotanzz]

I remember reading an astrology obsv about seunghan which said he might not be the best partner long term since he loves adventure. That makes me think, which members are most to least suitable for being husbands, based on astrology? Love your reading so much <3

RIIZE HUSBAND MATERIAL ~ based on astrology

reminder this is based off of MY opinions of their birth chart placements + aspects and is not exact fact unless I knew them myself and in no way am I saying members ranked lower cant/never will be married !!!

Shotaro

Capricorn Venus…that’s it. KIDDING but he aims more so for long term relationships and stable commitments in the traditional sense so getting married or at least having a long time partner is probably something he desires at some point. His scorpio placements are possessive and bent on loyalty so if he’s with the right person they’d get locked in imo, he'd be the breadwinner and like a traditional family dynamic when married.

Sungchan

He’s a leo venus with a cap mars so I think he’d want to get married and have kids since Leo and Cap are both synonymous with “maintaining your legacy and family name” I put him second because he’d want his choice of marriage partner to make him feel validated and approval especially by his family ESPECIALLY by his mother. Let’s say he was thinking of making someone his fiancée but his family/friends lowkey side eyed his choice..he mighttt change his mind about it. Like Shotaro he'd be a proper provider and might be into the "nuclear family" trope.

Anton

He's mainly husband material because he can take care of himself and wouldn't necessarily rely on his wife for much of everything, he's a taurus venus so he likely would be pretty traditional on a basic sense like paying for things and being committed however I don't think he'd settle down until after living a full portion of his life being independent and only having to worry about himself before adding someone into his life for the long term.. 

Eunseok

Husband material without wanting to be the husband IJBOLL. See when I analyze Eunseok with diff mediums (typology/astrology/etc etc) I can see him 100% being someone's long term partner BUT the label of marriage might be something he doesn't care for. He doesn't like feeling constrained or pressure so being with someone forever SURE ofc ! he secretly wants that ! but. being labeled and having legal documents attached...um. If it was normal in SK culture to not get married to your long term spouse I think he'd take that route. 

Wonbin

Honestly I really wasn't going to put Wonbin this high until I did some brainstorming. His pisces venus and taurus mars makes me feel like he lowkey has this "dream life" or "fantasy" where at a point in his life where he'll find 'the one' and have a comfortable life of being a husband (maybe or at least having a long time partner). Also in multiple readings he wants to be the masc counterpart with his partners and do what a boyfriend is "supposed to do" However he might take a very long time for him to find "the one" or commit to the right person commitment is extremely hard for him especially since his idealized idea of a person can break so easily .

Sohee

Sohee is a Sag Venus, they can be very very hard to pin down and they’re super picky about who they stay with due to the fact that Sag venus wants an equal that is on the same level as them, not someone that makes them feel “owned” and not someone giving him the responsibility to “own” them. But he's a pretty fair partner that can take his own responsibilities and an easygoing lover however he cares about his livelihood and freedom a lot plus he might think with his lusts/desires (venus/mars square) rather than viewing dating and marriage from a more serious pov

Seunghan

Loves the idea of marriage, isn't fond of the act itself. Similar to Eunseok I think he'd rather have a long time partner without the extra of marital duties attached. He's a very romantic sweet guy swear he is but he has a hard time expressing more deeper/complex feelings and is pretty avoidant in times of disputes and as we know marriage it has it's hardships and I think said hardships would turn him off. Also…venus square saturn..like��naur. He’ll fear missing out with other possible romantic opportunities

[layer-10-love]

2012 leo dating headcanons!

also I need to be working on requests oops

-he likes reading romance novels and has a stash of them hidden in between his bed and the wall!

-when first starting a relationship with you, he’s somewhat reserved and awkward despite having known you for a long while before.

-he’s a mutant turtle living in the sewers without human interaction for 15 years, can you blame the guys for thinking he’d never have a girlfriend?

-when alone with you, he’s more open and willing to reciprocate affection, often making corny jokes to alleviate his anxiety.

-it was somewhat obvious to everyone about his crush on you since he tended to be shyer and more tense around you (bullied by his brothers 24/7 yes even DONNIE).

-Leo often confides in you with most of his problems and conflicts, just like how he does with Splinter.

-His leader side comes out when planning date nights and other romantic scenes, he wants to impress you and give you the image of someone composed and calm (he’s not). A bit of a control freak over it, it’s a bit endearing.

-he tries to take reign of the relationship, but acts like an idiot when you give him any form of positive affirmation.

-whenever he’s nervous about his relationship with you, his mind goes to ‘what would captain Ryan do?’. Granted it did earn him an absolutely horrifying version of you berating him once so he turned it down.

-don’t let him cook!!! He threw water on a small oil fire once and he was demoted to being to watch you cook from a distance (20 feet).

-he pulls his weight by always washing the dishes afterwards, you’d consider him a male wife if he wasn’t so shit at cooking.

-you both have cooking dates, meaning you give Leo basic tasks like cutting the vegetables or setting up the table while you narrate the steps on how to make the meal you’re cooking at the moment.

-he loved it when you made a rice omelet for him and when he tried to teach you how to use some ketchup to write kanji on it.

-since he’s a turtle, he’s cold blooded (obviously), and so he likes to get warm by using you as his personal heater and pillow.

-he likes being the little spoon and being coddled when he’s anxious and worried about the future and the safety of his family.

-he’s obsessed with his Japanese heritage and reads Japanese literature and poetry, also knows more Japanese out of all of his brothers.

- Leo is a somewhat traditional type of person, and believes in chivalry. He is a bit old-fashioned in his views of gender roles, and sees himself as the protector and provider for you.

- he still respects your independence and ability to take care of yourself. He doesn't try to control you, he knows that you can take care of yourself, but he often gets worried which causes him to try and control some aspects of your life.

- While Leo is comfortable with taking on a more feminine role, he still values traditional masculinity and feels the need to protect you above all.

-tries to imitate the actions of the man in some of the romantic movies he’s seen, a bit desperate to please you.

Juno: Wedding Edition

Hello!! I came back with another asteroid reading that involves, this time, the asteroid Juno which is usually considered as the asteroid that signals who your future spouse is going to be and how will the marriage will be like. This interpretation is not wrong in my opinion and there is plenty of publications related of the meaning of this asteroids in the sign and houses. But, since I want to do something unique and it's still the month of love, I wanted to write about how would you imagine your wedding day to be based on the sign and house of asteroid Juno. As always, take what resonates and please don't repost this without giving proper credits to the owner.

Juno in Aries/1st house: you will probably like to be married early in life or fast. In your mind, once you've found your future wife/husband or once you are engaged, you won't like to wait. It has to be as soon as possible. Money won't be an issue for you along with the place of the ceremony, the party, the clothing, and so on. Don't care if it's in Las Vegas, a resort, the beach, or a church. You want to get marry fast.

Juno in Taurus/2nd house: these people will like to be married in a traditional place like a church and with only close friends and family. They won't like to invite thousands of people. Their wedding day could be either a very extravagant one or a very frugal one depending on the taste or the ammount of money you both have. The setting of the party and the clothing could be very classical in the mind of these natives.

Juno in Gemini/3rd house: those who have this sign or house will either plan every single detail of your future wedding, or I can see you being totally confused about what you want to do in that day. Maybe you will imagine yourself in multiples scenarios. One day you picture a church, another in a garden; a classic dress or tuxedo one day, and then a see through dress or a colorful tuxedo; and so on. For some you will picture your wedding place in another town or not close to where you live.

Juno in Cancer/4th house: these people won't think so much about the details of their wedding day like the clothing, the place or the food. Unless those things reflect some special memory or feeling within them. But, in general, the things they will think more are about the feelings he or she will have during that special day. Sorrounded by their loved ones, their friends, their parents, and, of course, their bride or groom. He or she will picture themselves crying in their wedding day.

Juno in Leo/5th house: these people will picture their wedding day as a special day for them and their bride/groom. That will be the day where he or she will feel proudest about their partner and their relationship. Probably, they picture an extravagant place full of people, full of little details and fun so people would remind that wedding. They will like to make clear that they, along with his/her future spuse, are the focus of the day.

Juno in Virgo/6th house: these people won't imagine anything about their future wedding. I think they will plan it in advance. The place, the flowers, the decoration, the clothing, everything. If not that, then they will picture his/her special day being perfect. Every single detail and effort they put through months (or even years) to create this special occasion will unfold perfectly. Just like they want.

Juno in Libra/7th house: the ideal wedding for this group would be something sorrounded by beauty and love. Maybe by nature too. They will like their wedding to be aesthetically pleasing to everyone, which it doesn't necessarily mean that it has to be expensive, and their future spouse. But, overall, they won't mind much about everything as long as his ideal partner looks at them with love during the whole ceremony.

Juno in Scorpio/8th house: these people imagine their future wedding as a private setting or a extravagant one depending on the money. Family and legacy could be a theme here so you could get married following certain traditions of your family, or in familiar setting such as an old camp of your family, or your family could help by paying the wedding arrangements. An intimate energy and transformative power could be felt by these people when they picture their wedding day.

Juno in Sagittarius/9th house: these natives will picture themselves getting married in another country, at the beach, in a farm (the symbol of Sagittarius is a horse), in a place that seems adventurous, or the ceremony could be very spiritual at the very least. They won't stress themselves about doing a fancy wedding. Having fun,maybe wearing something loose, and having a smile on their faces the whole day will be the most important thing for these natives.

Juno in Capricorn/10th house: these natives could picture themselves marrying either at an old age, with someone older, or in a traditional ceremony. For some, there could be an arranged marriage. They are very realistic, so the ammount of planning and hard work they must do in order to make the wedding day a success is already being considered by them. Maybe they picture themselves engaged for a long time first before getting married.

Juno in Aquarius/11th house: these natives imagine their wedding day as a funny and unique day in which there is going to be plenty of friends, family, food, and good times. They could possible imagine themselves wearing something untraditional or different like wearing a colorful outfit or doing something that people will remember such as arriving by helicopter or something. In their minds, their future spouse and them will be like best friends having a good time that day.

Juno in Pisces/12th house: this group imagine their wedding day as a deeply romantic experience full of fantasy, love, and mysticism. The fantasy sorrounding every possible scenario that could unfold on their wedding day will captivate them and keep them awake at night because, for them, marring won't be just an emotional experience, it will be sacred. Spiritual. They will like to keep the magic alive on that special day. In another context (it is really a random thing I just thought), maybe they want their wedding to be full of alcohol or drugs.

This is all I have for you today. I hope you enjoyed this reading.

Queerness and the House of Usher (spoilers!)

See I just added these Thoughts to the tags in @quecksilvereyes 's post but now I have Feelings too

TFotHoU (or HoU, as I will refer to it here), as expected from a Mike Flannagan show, has a bunch of Queer Rep™ to talk about. HoU is, also, about remarkably evil people - amoral capitalists who'll step over anyone if it means they'll get something from it. And look! Some of them are queer! Kinky too!

That's bad queer representation... right?

The show isn't that clear when stablishing sexualities, but we see that at least three of the Usher kids - Napoleon, Camille and Victorine - have same sex SOs/assistants with curious job descriptions. Prospero's taste for orgies probably implies queerness too, but honestly I don't remember if he gets it going with any guys in the story. I honestly have no idea about Tamerlane's voyerism thingie and Frederick is the only one with a "traditional family" going on.

Unrelated, but: Leo is definitely cheating on his bf Julius. Completely dismissing about his worries for him too. And for his cat. That's objectively evil, clearly. Vic literally killed her fiancée Alessandra, though she didn't stuff her under the floorboard, which is an L when compared to Poe's original. Cam doesn't believe in true love. Perry blackmailed his sister in law. Mean. He's also got a surprisingly high kill count for the family's disappointment, but since unlike Roderick he only killed rich people, we stan. I don't belong in Kinky spaces so I haven't got a big take on Tammie, only that - well, she's completely dismissing of her husband and sees him as a prop, just like the sex worker she hires.

Huh.

See, the nature of a story called "the fall of X family" is that X family is going to be the main character. The title kinda implies that they're falling for a reason, ergo, they're despicable fucking people. And they're queer! They're very queer. Many flavors of gay. They're the main characters, and they're monsters, and they're gay.

No, that's not bad rep.

Queerness as a movement, a community and a theory is very focused on scaping a cisheteronormative society's binaries (ie man/woman, husband/wife, public/private) and creating living conditions to those who fall outside of these categories - mlms and wlws, the trans, the nbs, the aros and aces... we are all queer, strange and estranged from this weird and limited worldview. And so we create a community for ourselves. It's very focused on care and anti-stablishment. Since a cisheteronormative society tends to be very white, rich and western, it's also focuses on anti-racism, anti-capitalism, anti-imperialism. Y'all know that, this is Tumblr and we love leftist Discourse.

I also know many, many gay people irl who are not like that at all. Libertarians, anarcho-capitalists, terfs, completely apolitical people and the like. Sexuality at it's core is personal, not political, so there are gay people out there who are perfectly comfortable with their sexuality on an individual level but do not see the point of getting involved in the broader context. They're queer, but are they...?

Well—

Not to mention there's lots of asshole gays out there! Don't you have a shitty ex? Have you never been almost run over by a drunken butch who blew cigar smoke into your face? I have! Life experiences are just like that. Maybe you should touch more grass. You'll probably find a lucky gift from your neighbour's dog, who is an astrology-obsessed bisexual and also really hot but stopped making out with you at a party once she found out you're a pisces (the neighbour, not the dog).

(Granted, none of this is as bad as implanting an experimental heart contraption into the fiancée you just killed because she dared to have ethical principles and then being so consumed with grief you stab yourself in front you'd your dad but you know how it goes. We're not the 1%.)

My point is, queer people are people. We are complex. We fuck up, and sometimes there's still times to fix things and sometimes... there isn't. We're consumed by jealousy and regret and sometimes we're so locked into our own head we stop believing the rest of the world is real too. Just like any other people, because unfortunately, queerness isn't a sign of morality.

And even if queerness does mean community, kindness and acceptance, tell me... Where the hell would the Usher kids get those from? The people around them are not really peers – they're ass-istants, blowjob-giving apartments, orgy mates, heart surgery providers, hired fitness moneybags, perfect housewives. Even if the partners are all shown to care for the Ushers, there's still a distance, a power gap, that makes the relationships fundamentally wrong.

And the partners? Arguably they're the good queer rep in the show, but look – even when Julius and Alessandra are shown to be good people (or at least people with an ethical boundary), they're not the good gays, they're simply the good SO's to a family of psychos. Exactly like Bill and Morrie, who afawk are straight people.

Which leads us to HoU's parameter of morality - Auguste Dupin. He refuses to drink the Amontillado, symbol of all the Usher opulence over the years. He got screwed over by the Usher twins and by the Raven herself, but he refused to cave in (except for the informant part, admittedly). He's not a good gay guy; he is gay and he is a good man.

The fundamental difference between our show's main tragic yaoi couple isn't that Auggie is a happily out gay man (and therefore is good) while Roderick is a sad divorced hetero (and therefore is bad). Auggie is the richer man because he is a good man; he has a spouse and children and grandchildren he loves with all his heart. He has a family and a community and he has found a sort of happiness no money can buy. Roderick owns the world – but what does he really have? What do his children even have? How could they ever build communities for themselves if they were never in one? Their father made them compete for his love. He never nurtured their bonds, he just showered them with money and excess until it was too much for them to handle. Juno herself pointed out - they were never a family. The House of Usher was only that. A house. It is empty and soulless.

What is queerness without a community? How could the people who represent the relentless corporate normativity and cutthroat capitalism ever be good queer rep? How can they even be queer?

Hear me out: on the most individual, simple level, being queer is still about not fitting in. These kids are bastards. They are are PoC and women in a predominantly male and white dominated space. They're on top of the world, but they're still outsiders to their own House. How could they not be queer?

And yes, I know this discussion takes a different turn when it comes to representation in media, but it's not like Flannagan fell into a Hays Code-era flamboyant villain trope. Queerness is just there. Just like Victorine and August are both black people in (arguably) the opposite ends of the morality spectrum, there are queer characters of many kinds here. The story just happens to be about the fucked up ones.

HoU is a poignant critique of capitalism and a surprisingly funny adaptation of Poe. We'll judge it by that. It happens to be queer – more things should be.

Hey hi, what’s your opinion on having an empty 7th house in leo? What could my future partner be like?

Empty 7th house

When dealing with empty houses, usually you just have to look at where the house ruler is. In this case, where is your Sun? What degree is it in? It will tell you more about the specifics, or even how you meet at times.

Also, asteroids in the 7th house also tell you about their appearance or personality.

For example:

Celebrities with an empty 7th house

Michael Jackson had an empty 7th house. His 7th house ruler (mercury) is in his leo 6th house. It's also in retrograde & is in an aries (°25) degree.

He met Lisa Marie Presley (1st wife/actual lover): On a regular day to him, she first saw her when he was performing in a concert at Las Vegas (she was just 7 then). She met him again about 20 years later, after recording her first demo (singing, entertainment; leo). There was a long period of time between them 'meeting' & them getting into a relationship (retrograde).

He met Debbie Rowe (2nd Wife):

He met her on a regular day, being treated for his vitiligo at his longtime friend & doctor's clinic (Arnold Klein). Although he did care for her, the main reason for their marriage was just because Michael wanted kids; & was afraid he wouldn't get to be a father following his divorce with Lisa.

Beyoncé has an empty 7th house. Her 7th house ruler (mars) is in her Leo 10th house at °1 aries , conjuncting the north node.

She met him during an event for MTV (leo & career related), when she was quite young (aries). They soon started working together and well, are arguably the most influential couple in the industry.

Asteroids in her 7th house:

Jay-Z was already a big name when they met, people were already talking about him (Europa °27 gemini, retrograde). He looks rather demure but tired, not like chiron (sickly, pale) more like man is done with life; looks overworked lol ( priapus °6 virgo, retrograde).

He is also bigger than her, both in height & weight but his aura is not threatening or explicitly sexual, but rather approachable & calm (°16 cancer Eros in Taurus). He doesn't look like he works out lol.

★Korey 'Hathai' Adiel★

New post to use as a ref yippeeee @aspenm00n

+the stats are inspired by @willowve01 old ref for Raine

Basics first~

Full name: Korey 'Hathai' Adiel.

Pronouns: She/They, but mostly goes by She/Her.

Realm: Al'terra

Home town: Aakhan

Ethnicity and race: Thai/Korean human.

Birthday: 28th of October

Age: 19 years old

Height: 5'4

Weight: 132 lbs

Sexuality: Bisexual

Gender: Demigiri

Disorders: prosopagnosia and borderline personality disorder.

Job occupation: (formally) Dazinite recruit. (Current) Aakhan hunter

MBTI: ENFP-A

Affinities: lightning and fire

Family members

Korey was born in Aakhan in a lavish yet unloving home. Spending most of her life trying to get her parents attention. The Adiel parents were very neglectful and emotionally abusive, to purposefully triggering Korey's episodes to guilt tripping Esra for leaving.

Korey has two brothers. The oldest is Esra, at 25 years old. The youngest is Noah, at 14 years old. They all get along greatly and have a very strong bond.

-Esra has already cut off his parents by now, and he absolutely refuses to see them again. He has a job and a loving wife and kid. He's not about to let them ruin it. He's always cool, calm, and collected, it's very difficult to really get under his skin. He graduated Thessla, the magic academy for mages, affinities being mind and water.

-Noah is kind of like a golden child, but also not really? He gets treated decently by their parents, unlike how his older siblings were treated, and he is very aware of it. He's very anxious and quiet, but can be brave. He has some big potential to use magic, but until he leaves the Adiel household, it's staying hidden.

Achara Hathai, the mother. She comes from a very strict family with a lot of traditions and rules to follow. She's the 5th of 6 daughters, she barely got any care from her parents, only by the maids. She was married off the day she turned 18 years old to Haneul Adiel. She's cold hearted, cruel, and is more than willing to manipulate others for her own advantage. She's a follower of Leo.

Haneul Adiel, the father. This man came from a very spoiled and entitled home. Raised by "loving" parents, who never once taught him punishment. His parents were the ones who watched over the kids. He was married to 18 year old Achara when he was 24 years old. He isn't a caring man, but a sadistic one. He's the one who'd torture Korey and Esra the most. Despite his spoiled unskilled appearance, he's a very talented mage, his affinities being lightning and mind. He's a follower of Daz.

-Their marriage was a loveless one, only conceiving children to keep the family line going. They both have no respect for each other, getting into arguments almost every day.

Little more about them here.

Important backstory events.

I. At 3 years old, Korey was pushed fell and sustained a pretty hard hit to her head— but thankfully, was found by a munite, they called themselves "Amaal". She was quickly healed by them, but too late as the right fusiform gyrus (for those who don't know it's a fold in the brain that coordinates the neural system that controls facial perception and memory) had already been too damaged, developing prosopagnosia due to the head injury.

After the munite told her parents found out about this injury, they... didn't care. Which of course caused Amaal to be even more concerned, that they made up an excuse to keep Korey at the temple for a little longer, just to make sure she doesn't have any more injuries they don't know about.

From then on, Amaal would visit Korey and her brothers in disguise, making sure they were okay and still alive. Even giving Esra a few healing spells to practice, and teaching Korey to mentally note vocal mannerisms and physical build so she can be able to identify them without relying on facial features.

II. At 8 years old, Korey meets Jay. I wouldn't get into too much detail about their relationship here, since I already did it in a different post.

Jay's family is very, very close to the Adiels <- them and the Akeins have a long history together. They were visiting the Adiels with his family before seeing Korey in the yard, playing by herself. So he approached her. And his obsession started a year later from there. She actually did not like Jay at all when they were younger, but Korey was basically forced to be nice to him as kids by her parents, and it unfortunately grew into a habit that developed into whatever they have going on because it's definitely not a friendship.

More about Jay and Korey and some other important things here

III. At 9 years old, Korey of course still couldn't understand why she couldn't see her parents, and why they wouldn't look at her. So, she had tried to gouge out her eyes with a pair of scissors to give them to her parents so they'd use them to look at her. As in her mind at the time, they didn't have eyes to use, to see.

Don't worry though! Esra found her before she actually gouged out her eye. Though she can still see, some serious damage was done to her right eye, he tried to heal it with what spells Amaal taught him, but unfortunately made it worse since healing was not his speciality, like at all. He ended up using a different spell on accident, causing the blood to flow in it drastically faster, turning it red.

Like I said— she can still see, but in her right eye, it's all tinted red and it hurt like hell. When Amaal visited again, they tried to heal Korey's eye, but unfortunately the damage from Esra's spell was almost irreversible, all they can do is relieve the pain in it.

IV. At 12 years old, Korey accidentally killed two boys who were about 3 years older than her at the time. The boys were bullying and hitting her badly, saying some pretty fucked up stuff, it was until one of the boys reached for her clothes was when snapped. Punching the boy off of her, before starting to slam his head on a rock over and over.

The other boy, too scared to intervene, but before he could run away, she ended up throwing a pretty hefty rock at his head. Killing both of them, and severely mentally scarring her. Thankfully for Korey, the murder wasn't pointed at her, but a violent halfblood who was roaming the woods. But still, even to this day the guilt still eats her from the inside.

Korey only told Amaal about what she's done, and safe to say they were not happy. They put her on community service duty for the rest of the year, while a very lenient punishment to killing two kids, they understood it was in self defense...also she was 12—

V. At 14 years old, Jay was brutally killed by a violent tiger halfblood, getting their guts ripped out as Korey could only helplessly watch. After it was done with Jay, Korey was also attacked by it, slitting her neck with its claws. But thankfully, she was saved by a hunter nearby called...'Warren'. influencing her enough that she decided to join the hunters. But of course, she was still too young to join. So for now she can only train.

Oh boy, were her brothers and Amaal very worried when they found out what had happened to Korey and her "friend".

Amaal, as a way to get her to stop from getting into so many dangerous activities, suggested they become a Dazinite recruit. Her entire family are ones, excluding Esra and Achara. So, she did, and it worked quite well. She stopped getting into too many fights, but was still quite the menace– pretty fitting for a stormchaser. And Amaal didn't have to worry as much about Korey getting severely injured, so it's a win-win situation!

VI. At 16 years old, she was quite literally struck down by lightning. Out of pity, the divine of Weather, Daz. Helped and gifted her a bottle with thunder inside of it..catch is, it was in liquid state. Essentially making her a muse. So far, only Esra and Amaal know about this.

Esra was very worried at first, but he'll warm up to it, eventually. Amaal was a little proud? I mean, their daughter figure just got gifted by a divine. But they were a little concerned about the potential repercussions and consequences..oh and her getting hit by a damn lightning bolt.

Noah has some suspicions of Korey being.. different. But of course he trusts his siblings too much to let his suspicions get in the way of their bond.

VII. At 18 years old, Korey finally meets Cersei. She's old enough to go on hunts now, but of course the older authority figures need to make sure she's ready-ready. And that authority figure happened to be mistress Fain herself.

The conversation was... something. Definitely not a normal interaction you have with someone. Lady Fain seemed to have been a bit suspicious of her being different per-say. But in the end, she was surprisingly very thoughtful of her and others, or at least she acted like that.

Circei had that motherly affect on Korey, but it felt so wrong seeing her as one.

Facts about her

—Korey's the type of person that would stab you as a warning.

—she is so ADHD and Autism coded it's not even funny.

—has a scrapbook with all the bugs and boys drawn in it so she won't forget what they look like and she will actually start sobbing if she ever lost it.

—she can speak Thai, English, and a lil bit of Korean.

— her episodes can either be violent (mainly to herself) or emotional. Her coping mechanism is finding an abandoned building and destroying it by taking her anger out on the things there. There are rare occasions where she talks about her feelings instead of bottling it up for so long it turns into an episode.

—she can barely remember what her parents faces look like, of course Korey pretty much relied on the person's voice to know who's who, but since her parents barely ever spoke to her, it takes her a while to recognise them.

—her grandparents, while mostly nice, were really possessive of her and her siblings. Never approving of her actions and choices, preferring for her to be more feminine and hide her scars. Korey kinda developed body dysmorphia from this, it was especially bad when she was younger

—she kinda had a grudge against halfbloods since she was attacked by one, but it was really only towards the more apex predators type of halfbloods. It was kinda resolved when she met the boys, but can be a bit suspicious if not paranoid meeting other halfbloods.

Of course she doesn't agree with the whole enslaving thing, but does agree that some halfbloods are too dangerous to be left alone, that some need to be put on a watch list by the hunters from how violent they can be. But, never drugged, enslaved and forced to fight.

—has very mixed feelings about Cersei. She understands where she's coming from. Her town got burned down, her family killed, and ended up having a miscarriage after trying to escape. All of that caused by a dragon halfblood.

Korey is an advocate for revenge, don't get me wrong! But she does think that Cersei's ideology went a little too far.

—she is very oblivious to more emotional feelings and weirdly observant to her opponents reactions. she was often mistaken as apathetic or heartless by the village people.

—best way to cheer her up? Cinnamon rolls. Or bibimbap! It's her favourite dish! Her grandparents used to make it for her before passing away

—don't let her anywhere near the kitchen though. She can help cut up the vegetables, but actually cooking? Yeah the place is getting burned down.

Her sense of direction is even worse than her cooking.

—she's both exciting and worrying to be around. Exciting because there will never be a dull moment with all the adventures and quests she comes up with. Worrying because she's a thrill seeker and will most likely purposefully put herself in danger just for the adrenaline.

—she's annoyingly good at fighting with insanely fast reflexes. One could argue because she's a muse, or because she's put herself in so many dangerous situations she learned it from experience. But either way, thanks to her risky endeavours, she's very agile and fast,

—but! While very reckless and careless of her self preservation. She always makes sure the others are okay, especially when they seem exhausted after a day out together. She knows not everyone can keep up with her energy.

—crimes include: arson, second degree murder, child endangerment, implied underage drinking, trespassing, vandalism, and–

Relationships family wise

Esra Adiel—ISFJ-A

Relationship: 9/10

he's her older brother, of course she has a good relationship with him! Even when he ran away to go live happily with his wife, Diana. He'd still come back on the weekends to check up on her and Noah, bringing all sorts of trinkets for them. He was the one who first encouraged her to join the academy when she reached 18 years old and not become a hunter instead.. but he understood her choices.

She did kinda hold the fact that he left them to marry a girl he just met against him. But he's made it up to her and Noah!

Esra is very quiet, always looking for ways to gain more knowledge, and stopping at nothing to protect his family.

Noah Adiel—ESFJ-T

Relationship: 10/10

Just like with Esra~ she has a very good relationship with him! Was very saddened when she couldn't be there for him as much. But she tries to visit him as much as possible! Taking every opportunity to go check up on him. She'd occasionally take him on her silly little adventures, just to spend time with him.

Noah is quite the anxious kid, preferring to stay silent then speak up his thoughts. But is brave when the situation calls for it, especially if it's to protect his siblings.

Diana Clair—ISFJ-A

Relationship: 8/10 only because she doesn't know her a lot

She never got to see her a lot, but she treasures her dearly! Along with her daughter, Ayla! Especially since she's her brother's wife. Was wary of her at first, but warmed up quickly!

Miss Clair is a very kind woman, eager to help anyone in need. Even if she's mute, she's more than willing to defend others!

Jay Akein—ENTP-T

Relationship: 0/10

...yeah I'm not getting into this one.

Achara and Haneul—ENTJ-A/T

Relationship: 0/10

Also no.

Relationships canon characters wise, also before Timmy was taken

Bodie Willowroot.

Relationship: 9/10

She was very, very suspicious of him when they first met. But warmed up to him quite quickly. She first started considering trusting him at the end of episode 1...and fully trusted him at the end of episode 3.

The reason why she even told him the truth about why she came here was because the guilt was eating her alive. Especially after the third episode-

Thinks he's pretty cool, gator halfbloods are quite rare these days. She tries to help him with the cooking but stays at the cutting duty– it's for the best. Likes how understanding and caring he is, he's almost like a father figure to her.

He reminds her a lot of Amaal and Esra combined.

Timothy Wheat.

Relationship: 10/10

Wasn't that suspicious of him tbh, she just assumed since he was also a gator, he'd know and be close to Bodie, and she was right!

She thinks he's... unique. Was suspicious of the white scales constantly growing on him, but let it go after the albino excuse before finding out he was half an ice dragon— but either way she really likes him!

Thinks his little obsession with crystals and cool rocks is pretty cute, she likes shiny things too, so that's one thing they can bond over! They'll even sometimes go search for some pretty rocks and ingredients for Bodie together. Most likely teasing each other on the way, Korey is often the winner of these silly fights.

Honestly, she really only prefers his company over the others because he's closer to her age. And because she thinks he's pretty and cool.

Marco Palustris Cydarki.

Relationship: 7.5/10

Was pretty salty on the fact he almost crushed her when they first met– but the sketch he gave definitely made it up. She thinks he's also very unique, probably more than Timmy. Is very curious on where he keeps disappearing and travelling off to.

Definitely won her trust by the end of their first meeting. But, her trust did kinda get rocky when she saw him at the arena, but it was resolved after he explained himself.

She still doesn't have much of an opinion on him, but she likes him.

Rolden Willowroot bonus tehe

Relationship: 5(?)/10 cuz she barely knows the guy

Boy was she terrified—

Okay not terrified per say, just very intimidated by him. But she does think his appearance is pretty cool.

And..uh..she uh...likes his determination to get his family out? My way of saying she doesn't have much of an opinion on him

And I think that's all!~ will be updating this post as the series progresses.

Some King Dice headcanons ~

Hey, so I'm back at my Cuphead phase and I re-fell in love with the Dice Man, ehehehehehe ~ After watching Casino Cups again I had some headcanons (sfw) I'd like to share, let's gooo ! This include the game, the show and Casino Cups (I see it as the official prequel of the game ehehe)

💜🎲✨️ KING DICE ✨️🎲💜

King Dice is just a pseudonym, no one knows his real name, except the Devil. But even him prefers to call him King Dice.

He is in his late thirty, at least in the game. He is a little bit younger of one or two years in the Show, and in his mid-forty in Casino Cups

He is a bisexual icon, definitely seduces both men and women, as the charming manager he is (also obviously a heart-breaker)

He is a Taurus Sun, Leo Moon and Leo Rising ~

He is terrified of getting old, and uses makeup in order to look younger. His appearance is one of his top priority.

Speaking of that, he is a morning person because he has a long beauty routine and like to take his time. This include shower, polishing his dice-head to make it shine, numerous concealers and skin-care products, a combo of eye-shadow and eye-liner, transparent gloss, sometimes blush and of course perfume, you name it.

Is also slightly muscular under his clothes, like to stay in shape <3

He never swears, he's to polite for that (except when he's very very angry)

PURPLE. Just Purple.

Everything he buy has to be purple (or gold)

Scatting is like his second language, the man express himself a lot with it. He scats out of pride, joy, stress, when he wants to calm himself down, etc.

By the way, he is a walking musical, the man is ALWAYS humming something. He even created his own band to occasionally play at the casino, after the Devil re-hired him.

He speaks multiple languages, including english of course, but also french, italian, spanish and german.

Definitely a cat and tea person (somewhat confirmed by DD)

He never had a particularly sad childhood and doesn't have trauma neither. On the contrary, he was the only child of a famous and very rich couple who built their empire on Inkwell Isle. His mother was a former actress and his father the head of a mafia organization. He grew up with everything he wanted, but his parents never paid that much attention to him. Not that they didn't love him, but they were such infatuated with each other that Dice never had a real place between them, he was secondary.

One day, another gang with whom Dice's father had a rivalty kidnapped his wife in exchange of his money. Deeply in love, he accepted, and they both ended up killed, King Dice was 15. Dice despise love and see it as a weakness because of this.

King Dice always had a mischevous side in him. Because of his parents negligence, he developped insecurities of failure and being forgotten, so his greatest wish was to surpass his parents's reputation and glory, whatever if he was feared or adored.

This is also why he is soooooo devoted to the Devil and needs his validation as his number one in the Cuphead Show, imagine being the literal Devil's Right Hand Man, who can surpass him then ?

King Dice gave birth to his pack of cards with his magic. He has them since he's a child, and considers them as his confidents and family, he's like a Lion with his tribe with them.

I like to imagine that King Dice and the Devil, since the Game's events, have a similar relationship to Snape and Dumbledore. Like, they aren't close emotionaly speaking (this is more Henchman's role), but they respect each other. King Dice is deeply loyal to the Devil and is his most trusted ally, his number one to whom he reveals every of his schemes. The Devil just has to make a hand movement and King Dice is like "Your wish is my command, boss". They act like a dark prince and his butler.

So, he has a fear of failure, uselessness and being forgotten, and see everything as a competition he has to win. This is why he killed all the Devil's finest demons in "Release the Demons", he needs constant praise and special treatment from the Devil to make up his insecurities. Because of his immaturity, the Devil was mainly annoyed by him in the Cuphead Show. That's when he gave him a second chance and created the casino that King Dice grew more close to his crueler and calculative personality from the game, and the Devil trusted him in making him his casino's manager

In a way, the Devil allowed King Dice's darkness to take over him by removing every of his human aspects : he became less emotive and goofy, not insecure anymore, etc...

Despite being close intellectually and professionally speaking, the Devil and King Dice are less about emotional discussion, unlike Henchman who acts like the Devil's confident. If the Devil ever cry in front of King Dice, he would probably be uneasy and try to be comforting but would fail miserabily : "Uuuuh... come on, man, get over it, it doesn't matter that much... ?"

Despite that, I think that when they grew closer between the Show and the Game, they started to have a sort of sexual tension and both are in denial of that. They do have some moments of intimacy when both end up blushing at each other, like when King Dice gets closer to lights up the Devil's cigar, or when they share a quick glance after a angry customer coming at them, knowing what has to be done next ~~

A bit like the Devil with Henchman, King Dice is grateful to people that are loyal to him since a long time and genuily care for him, like his little cards. King Dice is very egocentric, but that doesn't mean he is incapable of being attached. He is very protective actually.

That is a surprise to anyone, but maaan the Dice man has a beautiful voice, but he doesn't only sing jazz, or swing or showing off his lovely voice. Sometimes, when he's alone, or with his cards, he sings more emotional and soft tunes, like a lullaby.

That's it for now guys ! I hope you enjoyed it and if you want more <33

FNV Companions (+Yes Man and Benny) Reactions To Being Taken To The Sierra Madre

➼ Word Count » 0.9k ➼ Warnings » Dead Money spoilers ➼ Genre » Platonic/Romantic

Boone hates it there. All the bomb collars remind him of what the Legion did to his wife and he hates the way his hands start shaking because of it. Out of all the places you could've gone and this is where you decide? He'll be on edge the entire time, aiming whatever gun he managed to find at anything that moves. He refuses to die in a dump like this, and, as much as he blames you for taking him here, he's not gonna let you die on him. Not like this, at least. Boone genuinely hates everyone there and, if you asked him, he'd say that you both should just kill them all and leave. The mutant disgusts him, he doesn't trust anything Dean tells him, and Christine's in the Brotherhood. He couldn't care less about the gold bars, by the end of it, he just wants to get back to the Mojave as soon as possible and forget any of it ever happened.

Rex gets really confused when he can’t touch the holograms and is really scared when they start attacking him. He's helpful against the ghosts but he has a habit of running straight into areas that set off the collars. Not much changes with him beside him being a little more frightened and jumpy than usual.

Arcade starts to panic a bit at the beginning, the whole situation makes him nervous. He gets along surprisingly well with the other companions, he helps Dog/God out with his condition, matches Dean's snarkiness, and can even decipher Christine’s movements relatively well. Besides a few minor clashes with Dean, you could probably save all three of them, Arcade makes it pretty simple and his skills in medicine make him incredibly useful to have along.

Lily isn’t too excited about it. Leo is especially strong here and she can feel his urge to go maul Elijah. Although, she and Dog/God get along well enough due to their similarities. If she has any to spare, she’ll offer some of her medication to help him out a bit. She’ll end up adopting him, but having two mutants back you up was extremely helpful as you wandered the Villa and, eventually, the casino.

Cass hates Dean the second she meets him. She’s met people like him before and gets super defensive over you because of it. She’ll constantly be arguing with him and he’ll 100% try to kill you guys once you make it to the casino. She’s honestly just so annoyed the entire time, she hates being controlled and will kill Elijah the first chance she gets. (She’d also help you grab all those gold bars, ain’t no way she’s leaving empty-handed after everything you’ve had to deal with).

You can’t bring ED-E here, his radio frequencies cause the collars to go off.

The entire place reminds Raul about what happened in Mexico. He's scared and angry and just wants to ensure you both make it out of there. He's really good at picking up on the multitude of traps that have been laid around the Villa and is especially good at scavenging for supplies. He'll honestly help so much with keeping the both of you alive. He just wants to leave after it all, anything in the Mojave is better than this.

When you wake up, Veronica won’t even be there. Elijah would’ve had Dog take her to wherever he is so that she wouldn’t have to experience any of it. She’d ask a bunch of questions about where you went and why she's there, enough so that he ends up releasing you. She’s gonna feel so betrayed, especially when she discovers Christine is being held here as well. She’d reluctantly kill Elijah at the end, not wanting any of the gold or tech you both came here to collect in the first place, she just wouldn’t be in the mood for it anymore.

Yes Man’s positivity is a drastic difference compared to your harsh surroundings. He tries to get along with the others but his passive aggression makes it hard. He’s not all too worried since he can’t die, so he takes it upon himself to defend you at any cost. If you decide to kill Elijah, Yes Man will take control of the hologram monitor thing and you’ll both end up taking ownership of the Sierra Madre by the end.

At first, Benny sees it as an economic opportunity then gets really pissed when they take his suit. Especially since he's forced to wear these dirty rags now. In the beginning, he and Dean would get along well enough with their shared opportunistic personalities, but over time they start to clash. Dean gets very insecure around Benny and will try to kill him when he's not looking so that there's less competition for him to deal with. Once the two of you make it to the casinos, he'll just want to sit and gamble. He's so desperate to finally catch a break in this place and poker is something so familiar to him, that he almost gets nostalgic for The Tops. The two of you will end up sitting there for way longer than you probably should have and Dog ends up about one step away from setting the place on fire. You both also spend way too much time in the vault trying to decide how to successfully take everything back with you. Most of the others assumed you guys had already died, but once you agree on what either one of you should take, you sprint out of there, not even worried about killing Elijah anymore, you’re both too caught up in the fact that you successfully pulled off the greatest heist in America.

[push-tet]

@hellodahliah special for you 🥰 and for ppl who want to understand the lore of my Verona

kind of an addendum to the last post

bruh im sorry that this post came out so long!!

The Counts origin: The Counts, like the Сapps, were once an aristocracy. But after losing the election to Macbeth's ancestor, the Counts' ancestors ceased to consider themselves aristocrats. Leaving the path of palitics the Counts chose the path of jurisprudence. The Counts were able to maintain their power and influence over Veronaville by pulling the strings of law and justice

Escalus-Prince - Knowledge\Pisces- 5\3\9\1\7

Yeah, he's got a double name but everyone just calls him Escalus or Escal

He's too empathic for a job in the judiciary

He met his ex-wife at uni, he thought it was the real love but in fact she was using him to improve her position at uni so that she would not be expelled (he did all her academic work for her). When the truth came out, he didn't make a scene and just asked her to leave

After the death of Ledia Macbeth (the mayor at the time), he continues her work trying to reconcile the old generation of feuding clans

Escalus couldn't spend much time with his son. That's why they have a strained relationship with him

Escalus realizes he's spoiled Paris. While he has time, he tries to carefully correct this mistake so that he knows Paris will be a worthy successor to the family business

Gregorio - Romance\Taurus - 4\7\3\8\3

He is the first adopted son of the Summerdreams. When he grew up, he changed his last name

He was in love with a servant girl at the Сapp House (at the time of the game, the deceased Angelica Nurse)

He's a master of bad flirting

Before he became the Counts' butler, he tried his hand at stand-up

Gregorio still doesn't know how to react to Paris' words - You're like a big brother to me

After the fire at the old Count manor, he developed hydrophobia

Paris - Family\Leo - 5\8\3\4\5

Paris was born and spent half his childhood in Champs Les Sims. But his parents were going on a long expedition, so they returned to Veronaville and left their son in the care of Escalus. They promised to send him a card or letter once a month, but he hadn't received one in over three years (they're alive)

Paris was chubby in chilhood

Paris got interested in drawing after watching - Little Miss Wendalyn (fun fact - it's also Romeo's fav cartoon) At the moment, the biggest fan of his doodles is Merc

Paris is a little self-centered and makes himself a pretty good-looking guy. But even so, he always says - There's beauty in everyone. Someone just didn't think to wash their face today

Paris has been friends with Julliette since childhood but her liaison with Romeo annoys him. Paris just can't turn a blind eye to Romeo's shameful reputation. Not because he's jealous nonono

Paris and Romeo don't openly show their dislike for each other and pretend they are good bros. Paris calls him Gnomeo

The Zhung origin:

The fairies of the Zhung Clan are famous tea masters and their outdated views on life. The men of the clan are outstanding healers and the women of the clan are supposed to be creative but devote themselves to looking after the family. But no member of the family is allowed to leave the homeland without special permission from the elders. Failure to follow the rules is punishable by condemnation and condemnation within the family

Yingtai - Virgo\Family 8\3\5\3\6

After her daughter left the family, Yingtai devoted herself to a career in music. She is fluent in playing all musical instruments and has often performed at the opera

As a young girl, Yangtai disobeyed her family and went to university abroad dressed as a man

Yingtai's husband openly despised her family. He despised them so much that he refused to use his wife's surname after marriage

Yingtai hasn't spoken another language for a long time, so when she arrives in Veronaville she starts to communicate with everyone in her native language as a habit

Yingtai remains devoted to her husband even after his death

Yintai knows all types and kinds of teas by heart. So she's literally like: Fuck your zodiac signs. What's your favorite tea?; Her favorite - Longjing tea

please someone ask me about Yingtai and her husband's relationship they are my Roman Empire

Madam - Aries\Pleasure 5\6\6\4\4

i found an old post about her bruh

Madam change her name and took her second husband's surname so she and her daughter wouldn't be part of the Zhung

Madam hates everything to do with her father. Unlike her mother, Madame is convinced that he is not dead but simply ran away

Madame works as a fashion photographer but also successfully designs her own custom-made clothes. Some of her clients include - Marissa Cleveland, Armand DeBateau, Mercutio Monty, Klara Vonderstein, Goneril and Kent Capp, Bella Goth, Cordial sisters

Madame doesn't hate men, she just doesn't like it when men try to control women

After the "death" of her father, Yingtai fell into a deep depression and stopped paying attention to her daughter, because of this Madame became unmanageable and often deliberately got into trouble

After leaving home, Madame still has a habit of asking after the welcome - "Would you like some tea?" Her favorite - Pu Erh with basil-cherry

Helana - Scorpio\Fortune 7\4\7\4\3

When Helena was studying martial arts in Shang Simla. (btw the homeland of Madam and Yingati) She overworked herself so much that she now has to dye her hair blond to cover up a bunch of gray hairs

Helena the union of an ordinary sim and a fairy. A half-breed. She does not have access to such fnctions as - long life and magic. But in she excels in physical activities of ordinary sims

Fact: Helena was able to reeducate Paris to do his job properly

For Helna, Hermia is dead. So when she's asked to stop ignoring Hermia's existence, she says - I'm not crazy enough to talk to a ghost

Helena seems to be a cold person, but if you talk to her for a while, you will find out that in addition to white arts, she bakes cookies/buns to drink tea with (if Paris doesn't eat all the sweets in one go); Her favorite - green tea with peach

The Snout also have a dog named Peek

He was a present for Madam from father-in-law. i don't know how to describe him, i'll just show it

he's also supposed to be a Spitz

fact: the only three characters here are not Shakespearean references

hmmm, should i put Madam-Helena and Escalus-Paris templates for download?

NEWS OF TRADITION

[Kently Estate]

Princess Lara: Thank you for letting Uncle Louis host Thanksgiving this year. I know you all changed things for me, and I appreciate it.

Queen Katherine: You don't have to thank me, sissy. Anything for my new nephew! I always forget how much closer you are to Kently than the palace.

Princess Lara: Yes, and with Anna and the kids back at Kently, we're all somewhat together again.

Queen Katherine: "How is Anthony enjoying fatherhood?"

Princess Lara: "He's adjusted well. We got married, father died, you became queen, then we got pregnant. It's been a challenging two years. He's been so supportive."

Queen Katherine: (smiles) I'm glad to hear. Jazmyn! I can't believe how big Jackson has gotten!

Lady Jazmyn: Girl! He doesn't miss a meal!

Queen Katherine: (laughs) Two year olds!

Princess Margot: Time to eat!

Princess Lara: I'll tell the children. I think they're still outside.

- - - - - LATER - - - - -

Princess Lara: The children should be right in.

Princess Hattie: This Philemon scandal is all over the news!

Princess Margot: I thought that had died down.

Princess Hattie: No! He lied on the House floor last week, in front of the minority leader. He resigned!

Princess Lara: What?

Princess Hattie: Birch! He was Philemon's undoing.

Princess Margot: The Osteopath?

Prince Louis: Right after Philemon's statement, Birch appeared on SNN, where he endorsed Philemon's version and dismissed all rumors and insinuations as "baseless".

Princess Hattie: What Birch didn't know was the Metropolitan Police was investigating his affairs. They had interviewed 139 of his friends, associates and patients, and had maintained a 24-hour watch on his home for two weeks.

Prince Louis: Among those who gave statements was Wilson, who contradicted her earlier assurances and confirmed her sexual relationship with Philemon, providing corroborative details of the interior of the Cavalier Terrace house.

Princess Margot: What? That's a security breach.

Lady Jazmyn: What's the Cavalier Terrace house?

Prince Louis: Where Philemon and his wife live, as a member of the House of Commons.

Princess Hattie: Well, Philemon confessed the truth to Keller's private secretary Monday, confirming that he had lied, resigned from the government, and applied for the office of steward of the Shaltern Hundreds in order to give up his House of Commons seat.

Prince Louis: I'm sorry, Kate. We should change the subject.

Prince Leo: Why should Kate care? None of this is her fault!

Prince Louis: The sims of Windengurg take everything out on the monarchy. The good and especially the bad. The government is formed in the sovereigns name so these are acts, many believe, are directive and reflective of the crown. Mommy always said "the Crown is a delicate jewel."

Queen Katherine: Speaking of, I'd like to make a grade gesture this Christmas. I'd like to restart an old family tradition - Christmas Day walk to church in Beaverdam.

Prince Louis: Oh, Kate. How lovely!

Queen Katherine: We haven't done it since 1992. Therefore, I'd like you all to spend Christmas with me in Beaverdam this year. Lara, please bring anyone you need to help you and the baby.

- - - - - LATER - - - - -

Queen Rowena: I'm so proud of you. Your father would be, too.

Queen Katherine: Thank you, mommy.

Queen Rowena: I know I haven't been myself lately. Losing your father was very tough but I'm feeling much better.

Princess Lara: You don't have to apologize, mommy. We're just glad you're feeling better.

Queen Katherine: I will have a full dowry starting in January. I neglected so many charities.

Princess Lara: Same here! Kate has given Anthony and I several more patronages.

- - - - -

Queen Katherine: Have you talked to King Felipe lately?

Prince Louis: Of Oasis Springs? No. Why?

Queen Katherine: Whatever happened between he and father? I was reading fathers journals and he mentioned a trip you two took and a deal that was made but his next entry discussing the king was very unfavorable.

Prince Louis: Oh. I...uh... I wouldn't know, Kate. I wouldn't think too much of it.

Prince Louis: How is your Christmas speech going?

Queen Katherine: I've made so many changes since granny died. I fear I will make many more edits before we film.

Prince Louis: I'm always here if you need to share your thoughts and ideas, bear.

Queen Katherine: Thank you, Uncle Louis.

Queen Katherine: (hugging) We'll see you in Beaverdam.

Prince Louis: I wouldn't miss it. Christmas at Beaverdam! My favorite tradition!

worst thing done in their story?

Sleepy - (first one wasn't alwayd her doing [one was an accident], but she's made herself think it was/was convinced for a long time that it was) tie between murder and marrying a highly dangerous individual

Sigmund - got with Duncan

Leo - gotten into physical fights (he's won every one though)

Aaron - extreme eavesdropper. he gossips so much. #1 drama spreader

Pebble - got with gnarly

Malcom - gay and won't admit it (/j he's just a bully 💀💀 probably a step higher than vic but still not as bad as henry or patrick)

~

canon character that someone needs to beg for forgiveness towards?

Sleepy - not anyone alive, she'd have to have an emotional moment or 5 through her dreams

Sigmund - not that he can remember

Leo - he apologizes to everyone immediately even if he hardly did anything, so probably not (except for the people in the aforementioned fights lmao)

Aaron - probably, but he's not going to

Pebble - the smiling friends, but it's not his fault that his boyfriend and his boyfriends boyfriend are like that

Malcom - most definitely, but he's not going to

~

canon character someone needs to forgive?

Sleepy - no, cause she's forgiven nearly everyone if they didn't do something really bad to her, and her ass is NOT gonna forgive demons

Sigmund - not needs to, there's no one he's required to forgive

Leo - see above

Aaron - see above

Pebble - i don't think so

Malcom - yes, but it's complicated

~

would anyone die for them? would they die for anyone?

Sleepy - yes, her wife + family, and yes, everyone she cares about

Sigmund - maybe (it depends on what the death is) and yes, friends

Leo - yes, everyone he cares about, and yes, same answer

Aaron - yes, friends, and depends on who it its

Malcom - probably (he can't say for sure), and yes, his boyfriends

~

canon character someone does not respect?

Sleepy - too many to list, for too many reasons

Sigmund - chris mcclean, self explanatory

Leo - chris mcclean

Aaron - chris mcclean and most of the roti cast (they piss him off)

Pebble - he won't say it to his face, but grim. just a little bit

Malcom - the entirety of the losers and butch bowers, you get the idea

~

anyone they're likely to get a puppy-crush on?

Sleepy - avril lavigne. yes she exists in her universe

Sigmund - shawn, he'd ask him SO many questions and listen with all the attention he could muster

Leo - jasmine, idk i just think he'd find her really cool lmao

Aaron - he's always wanted to meet izzy. study her mind and all that

Pebble - probably charlie, he strives to be that chill

Malcom - idk. if he was sane in the modern day then probably kesha

~

who has made them cry?

Sleepy - a lot of people 💀💀

Sigmund - chris mcclean, probably heather, probably duncan too

Leo - chris mcclean, probably also heather

Aaron - chris mcclean. besides that nobody has good enough insults or mental torture that challenges the weight that chris has

Pebble - also a lot of people 💀💀

Malcom - his boyfriends. he won't tell anyone about it though

~

anyone they didn't like at first, but liked later?

Sleepy - ivy (ppgz), though it wasn't necessarily her, it was the association between her body and the demon that possessed her

Sigmund - noah. he didn't like his sassy quips at first, but eventually he found them funny

Leo - nobody really, he kinda liked everyone immediately (except for heather)

Aaron - scott lmao

Pebble - no one, he was just kinda indifferent about everybody?

Malcom - henry mostly, but he was hostile towards everyone

~

who doesn't respect them under any circumstances?

Sleepy - sarah is OUT for her 😭😭

Sigmund - heather and probably a few others

Leo - heather

Aaron - anne maria

Pebble - grim, but he pretends to because of gnarly

Malcom - the losers

~

who do they respect a lot?

Sleepy - her younger sister Sigmund (yes it gets confusing), and Pebble. "they're tougher than they look" (a quote from her)

Sigmund - Aaron. "he can take a punch, but damn can he swing on someone too"

Leo - Sleepy. "she's reserved, but very calm and protective"

Aaron - Sleepy. "i dunno she's cool. like the second mom i never had"

Pebble - Sleepy. "we share a lot more in common than i thought. and not to brag or anything, but she said i'm her favorite :]" (he did not actually say "colon bracket" for that)

Malcom - Sleepy. "she's big and scary. i mean not to me, but to a dumb [flag] definitely. we could use her on our side, if she wasn't, y'know, a girl" (he asked to be censored)

~

(my choices time :3) does anyone say someone is their best friend? who would they call their best friend?

Sleepy - she'd say Ornery and Sentra (and their respective canon hosts) are her longest standing (alive) best friends, and they'd probably say the same for her. also her WIFE💍😝✨️💥💥

Sigmund - Leo, Aaron, Cinn, Zeke, Mike, and Pebble are his best friends, and they'd all say the same (he leaves out duncan and scott on purpose to be an ass lmao)

Leo - Sigmund, Aaron, Cinn, Zeke, Mike, Duncan, Scott, Pebble, and Sleepy (he would include Malcom, but he's never been able to get close to him. both in an emotional and literal sense)

Aaron - Sigmund, Leo, Cinn, Zeke, Mike, Duncan, Pebble, and Sleepy (he leaves out scott for the same reason as sig)

Pebble - Sigmund, Leo, Aaron, Gnarly, Sleepy, and Malcom (everyone cannot figure out why pebble is the only one who can get close enough to him [its because they share some experiences and pebble is probably the best with feelings out of all of them])

Malcom - he doesn't HAVE "best friends." what is he, a child (but he would consider pebble to be the least threatening out of all of them, so it's kind of a friend thing? friends and friend feelings are hard for him)

~

which canon character is pissed off by the general presence of them?

Sleepy - too many people 💀💀

Sigmund - heather

Leo - heather

Aaron - anne maria

Pebble - mr. boss, funny enough (pebble is unaware of this)

Malcom - any authority figure

~

how do the partners feel about each oc? how do the others feel about each others partner? (YIPPEE I GET TO LIST THEIR BOYFRIEND/WIFE'S OPINIONS)

Sleepy - "duncan is annoying at best, at worst i don't wanna know. ezekiel is nice, he says hi when he sees me and stuff, seems like a sweet guy. treats leo as good as the guy treats him. scott is somehow more annoying than duncan. gnarly i was wary of, but he's good with peb, so he's fine to me. he leaves me alone most of the time, which i appreciate. and, uh.. malcom has more than one partner? i've seen one, and he was fine i guess, but apparently there's more. cass says they're a fucking pain, so that's about all i have to go off of."

Sigmund - "i haven't seen much of cassandra, but she seems to be on the same level as sleepy. just kinda chill, doesn't give fucks or take shits. ezekiel is about the best guy in the world, just a little.. what's the word. misguided, sometimes. but i've known him for a while, so maybe i'm biased. scott can be a little shit, but he's more manageable when aaron's with him. gnarly i've hardly ever seen, but he kinda looks like the reddit freaks they tell you to look out for in high school, or they'll like, hate crime you. pebble says he's okay though, so i trust him. i've seen one glimpse of malcom's partners, and they looked WILD, but i guess when you come right out the 80's to the 2020's, you kinda get your shit rocked. i didn't talk to eli, but i liked his jewelry. they're bullies, right? awesome, i hope they make duncan shave that goddamn unibrow. or maybe they'll do it for him, that'll be even better."

Leo - "cassandra i've seen a few times, very intimidating at first, definitely has a dark past. but she's nice to us, which i like. duncan i'm used to by now, even if he can be kinda annoying sometimes. he seems to be more chill when he's with all of us combined. scott hasn't been much of a pain to me specifically, but he targets sig a lot, and has lots of banter with aaron, and i try not to laugh at every horrible insult they throw back and forth at each other. gnarly looks like he'd ask me if i want some crack out of his trenchcoat, which would make me uncomfortable, if he wasn't a giant dweeb. in a positive way. i've only ever seen one one of malcom's partners one time, and it was the same day we found out he'd showed up. eli, i think his name is? didn't talk to him, but he seemed about the same as malcom, whatever that is. i know there's a group, but from what i heard, i'm okay with not meeting the rest."

Aaron - "cassandra's cool, she recommends music to me. duncan is like my boyfriend, which can piss me off sometimes. zeke is cool, he got me my earbuds for my birthday. gnarly looks like he'd call me a slur, but pebble says he's nice. i dunno, i'd have to wait and see if that's true. malcom's partners have never come out of their room, except for one, but i hardly percieved him. i don't think the rest are real, with how much malcom hides them, and how ridiculous they sound."

Pebble - "cassandra is super nice, she and sleepy helped me get settled in on my first day of getting into the space. her and sleepy have a lot of history together, and it shows. duncan used to pick on me, but he doesn't anymore, so he's okay. ezekiel is so incredibly sweet, him and leo are perfect for each other. scott also picks on me, and he's stopped doing it as much, but it still happens sometimes. he's like a 4/10 in my mind. i think i'm the only one that's actually seen malcom's other partners? two of them, at least. i met him at the door that connects our rooms one time, and two of them locked eyes with me. it was kinda creepy. malcom tells me stuff about them when nobody's paying attention, and they're very on and off. usually on with him, though. overall more 5/10, since i haven't had any firsthand experiences with them. but malcom says he doesn't want me to have any."

Malcom - "i don't care about their stupid boyfriends. and i wish they would stop saying the gang are my "partners," i'm not gay. the weird blue one is the only one that gets that."

~

Cassandra - "i can hardly stand any of them, except for ezekiel."

Duncan - "cassandra scares me, but you better not tell anyone i said that. zeke is okay i guess, but i couldn't have guessed he was a gay until leo came around. i don't care if that was a long time ago, it still surprises me. scott is pretty funny. gnarly is fucking awesome, i don't know how people can't like him. the gay little gang of weirdos threatened me once, and i would've taken them easily, but cassandra threatened to beat the shit out of all of us, so nothing happened. they do not take her seriously at all, and it's hysterical to watch. i can't laugh though, but it's whatever."

Ezekiel - "cassandra is real nice, eh. she always lets me leave the room before she gets all loud and scary. duncan and scott are just okay, i don't talk to them much. gnarly gives me weird looks, but i try to ignore them. that little group is straight up freaky though, they told me they'd skin the "giant rat on my head" if i didn't leave them alone. i didn't even have rats on my head when they said that! and i do leave them alone, eh! but they still come around and pull wicked knives on me! not cool."

Scott - "everyone in there is either annoying, bearable, or cassandra. she's creepy, not just when she gets obnoxiously loud. she told me she wished she had her "precious metal babe" with her sometimes, and i've spent enough time with pappy to know what she means by that. the traveling circus of knife wielders fits into the annoying category, i just don't show my shark tooth to them in case they try and steal it. i could take 'em, easy."

Gnarly - "the guys are okay, cassandra is whatever. those little boys are nails on a fuckin' chalkboard, though."

Henry - "i don't give a shit about those stupid [flaggots]." (he was censored against his will)

Patrick said the same thing as Henry.

Victor didn't respond.

"Belch" - "i'unno, whatever henry said."

[jury's still out for Eli]

Hi,

Can you rec historical romance where hero abruptly has to take care of his family and is impacted by it?

Not Anthony Bridgerton but Julian Blackthorn style

Thanks 🙂

Yes!

The Truth About Cads and Dukes by Elisa Braden is one! The hero had a very cold father and has sort of become the man of the house, is managing a total mess of a brother... who compromised a mousy girl in a non-sexual way, and now the hero is marrying her to make up for it. Fortunately, he's DEEPLY obsessed with her hands.

I would say that Lisa Kleypas's The Hathaways series has this. I can't remember exactly how both Hathaway parents died (one had scarlet fever, I think) but point is that Leo becomes head of the household fairly young, and having just lost his fiancee to the fever... He is a MESS. A MESS. Total dissolute rake. His book is next to last in the series, but each book (about his sisters) shows you his character development. The second one introduces his heroine, too, and they have this slow burn supporting tension. Her Ravenels series has a similar situation, but you get that hero's journey first as he's the hero of the first book. He inherits a title unexpectedly, and with it his three cousins who he now has to take care of lol.

Alexandra Vasti's Ne'er Duke Well has a hero who has to care for his two younger illegitimate siblings. It's pretty fun—he needs to get married in order to maintain full custody of them, and the heroine tries to help him find a wife while CLEARLY being the right wife.

Duke Most Wicked by Lenora Bell is about a duke who was a bit of a mess before, but now has to shape up to find good matches for his sisters. Too bad he's really into their poor music teacher...

Lorraine Heath's The Return of the Duke is about a hero who's doing this in a unique way... His father is a duke and ends up executed and losing his title after he's convicted of treason. The hero has been lowkey trying to reclaim the title and get the family name restored for years, which is what leads him to the heroine... his father's former mistress.

Her Protector's Pleasure by Graced Callaway introduces Ambrose Kent, the patriarch of her Kent family, who is in charge of his billions of younger siblings who all find love in their own books lol (their father had most of them quite young). If I'm HONEST, Ambrose is one of my lower-ranked Grace heroes because he is very like... stolid? In a lot of ways? BUT it fits this trope very well.

An m/m option would be The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen by KJ Charles. Joss Doomsday has kind of fallen into a "protector" role in his crime family, though he certainly has relatives that oppose him and the family matriarch (his grandmother) technically isn't dead... Just very old. He's really sweet with his little cousin.

Lmao if you want "dark but also weirdly comical" Hart Mackenzie was forced to become the family father figure even before his own father died because the man was so abusive. Hart... doesn't always do it right... But he deeply loves his family, and the moment in his book (The Duke's Perfect Wife) where he and Ian have this big like... recognition of how much they love each other... Makes me wanna cry. He's got a lot of paternalistic shit in the first three books in the series (both literally and metaphorically) BUT again, his book is The Duke's Perfect Wife.

OH! Devil Cynster in the Cynster series is TOTALLY this. Deeply dominating and bossy. Also a doting brother/cousin/uncle/whatever he is to all of the family.
