My Headcannons for Yoichi Isagi, Rin itoshi and Alexis Ness💕
Part 1 l part 2
Might not be accurate
💗💗💗
Tumblr media
Yoichi Isagi :
✿He took a photo once of his hair slick back and his fan went absolutely feral.
✿He time to time stalks Rin to observe what he does.
✿Isagi probably stares at the ceiling when he's about to sleep and think about all of the opportunities he missed.
✿If he played any other sports it would be chess, since his vision is great for mental games.
✿Tbh is he was a sin he would be greed/gluttony.
✿If he could ask anything from his parents, it would be to have a little sis.
✿Does skin, body and hair care every few days.
✿Swears in videos games often. Those little brats think they're so gOoD but once isagi finishes his puzzle he'll devour them
✿Tried to hit Kaiser in the head with the ball after a practice match, but Noel Noah was there
✿Gossips with kurona and hiori about kaiser and ness, It's perfect since kurona doesn't know what they're doing but hiori has a lot of dirt on them.
Boyfriend Headcannons💤
♡Plays football w/ u and teaches you by beating you, not even to destroy your self esteem.
♡ such a sweetheart while you are on your menstrual cycle (if you're a girl)
♡ gossip about every teammate with you, like a whole book of players he wants to gossip to you about
♡ once you were sick, he drove to the local store at 2 am just for you. He's so sweet.
♡ Cooks very well like he'll cook food decently
♡ Not that toxic? Maybe that's probably up for debate
♡tells you about his problems like it's the national news to be discuss
♡ Has that romantic playlist he made just for you and him to enjoy.
♡Due to being in blue lock he hasn't texted you often so in return he tries to send gifts every month
♡ Calls you darling and sweetheart multiple times a day
Tumblr media
Rin itoshi
✿Drools in his sleep (Me too Rin)
✿I feel like he'll stand awkwardly in a party not even interacting with anyone
✿Is good at cleaning, not barou level but up there
✿Perfect grammar, also TOP at his English
✿Never uses any gen-z/alpha slangs or any type of slang infact
✿Dry ass texter...
✿Gets really weirded out by any of his THOSE fangirls/fanboys... Like wdym you wanna have the reproduction LIKE HE'S ONLY 16
✿Knows knife play at some point, don't ask him why (he doesn't know)
✿Artistic in secret... Like he'll paint the beach or anything that shows the happy times of him and sae
✿Gets nightmares of that day... (Pretty sure everyone has that headcannon by now)
Boyfriend Headcannons💤
♡Cuddles every time he gets a chance with you. That kinda prevents him from getting those dreams....
♡ even if he's not as romantic as the others, you guys still go on weekly dates and THEY are expensive or just casual date like movie date🫶
♡After getting traumatized by sae, he almost broke up with you, Thank goodness, that you manage to make him snap out of it.
♡ After getting convinced by your and his parents he went to couple counseling and saw his mistakes
♡One of his favorite things to do with you is Playing football, I mean two things he loves in one? Count him in!
♡ Bring extra clothes with him whenever you're around, just in case it gets cold and he doesn't need to give you his hoodie.
♡Does not have much of a soft spot for you BUT, his eyes sparkle whenever he sees you like the good old times
♡ Almost made you cry when you both were on a movie date, it was those scary ahh movies that you don't know what's coming next.
♡Has a separate Love notebook from his early days of middle school that he reads when he misses you.
♡Calls you lukewarm as a word of affection when he sees you
Tumblr media
Alexis ness
✿Would probably be in good terms with isagi if it didn't end like this
✿Has a mental breakdown every few days because of kaiser paying too much attention to isagi
✿Makes Kaiser a birthday cake every year and even bought him EXPENSIVE stuff from his hometown
✿Keeps the magician outfit he had when he was just a child, he cherish it like it's the most valuable thing in the whole universe
✿Would be friends w/ Charles if they interacted more, I mean like opposite friends, Ya'k
✿If richer than his awful siblings back home, if not then... It's because of the plot.
✿If he didn't met kaiser he'll probably be better than what he is now.
✿Has surprisingly good fashion taste, It's better than most blue lockers I can tell you
✿Has that changing color book lamp at the side of his bed he use when he's upset or just sad
✿He would like science if it weren't for the fact of his childhood
Boyfriend Headcannons 💕
♡Is actually quite the gentleman to you and your family members, since he a very toxic household
♡Always makes your favorite dish, if he doesn't know the recipes he'll find it by your guardian/ by how you like it.
♡Gives you a lot of gifts, I MEAN A LOT like everyday you'll find things that you enjoy at your doorstep
♡Due to being away from blue lock, he gets awfully jealous of the boys around you. Even if it's just a friend
♡Husband material frfr
♡ Punch a dude that was making you uncomfortable, and then ran with you to flee the scene.
♡Prefers the value of affection than the materialistic value of a gift you give him
♡ Loves being the small spoon but if you want, he can be the big spoon, anything for his precious angel.
♡Yandere tendency!!! Whether a girl or boy, he will get jealous if you spend more attention on them than him!
♡Call you angel or any kind of German words of affection, he will use it
That's it y'all💋
Thank you for reading this! It too me longer than expected!
So thank you for staying till the end even tho it was just 3 blue lock characters!
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Hi! Got a few asks hope you don't mind
What originally gave you the idea of creating the Dad Jay Au?
2. What's your favorite scene from the first book (sorry, can't remember the name) in the Dad Jay Au?
3. Does Jay have a favorite memory with Kaida?
4. How old do you think Jay is in DR? I seen some people say he's late thirties and others say late twenties.
5. What exactly is Kaida's elemental power? I can't remember the name but I do remember what is looks like and how it kinda works
Hope this wasn't to many asks, I saw some of your art and suddenly was reminded how awesome Kaida was so I thought 'why not learn more about her and the Au'
Hii! Thanks for the asks!:
As soon as the amnesia Jay leak came out, I was feral because I had so many ideas. Jay having amnesia and being a secret agent in mysterious kingdom? That had so much potential, so I wanted to write a fic about it even before the season came out. Which resulted in some discrepancies with the Administration of the the show, considering that in the first part of the AU it's its own kingdom, it's more military and all the agents are a little more competent, but, eh, I'm glad I wrote it sooner. At the time I made this conceptual art, and that's when I had the idea of Jay having a teacher-student relationship with a girl in the agency. And originally, that fic was going to be a one shot simply showing how Jay was adapting to living in the Administration, Jay and Kaida's relationship was not going to be the focus and was going to be something more secondary. Then I thought among all the distressing theories of Jay meeting the ninjas, about the power of; Hey, what if Jay actually manages to start a family in all those years? So from then on I wanted to develop a whole au exploring that possibility and what would happen if Jay had adopted a child like the others did in DR.
The scene of Jay teaching Kaida how to drive in chapter 3 and the hug between these two in chapter 4. Here I explain a little more why I love these scenes so much
Prob the first time she played a video game after they managed to get a Prime Empire copy.
In my hc Jay is 31 years old in season 1 of DR (and he would be close to turning 32 by S2)
So, in the first book of the AU I really didn't have much idea what to call it so I called it the "elemental power of Aura", but now the official name is the "element of Spirit" which would be everything related to souls
I don't mind getting a lot of asks, I love talking about this au so ty!

survey #208
What is your absolute favorite hobby? Who got you interested in it? It's probably feral animal RP, at least when I'm in the mood to write. I discovered it myself through the OG Meerkat Manor Animal Planet forum.
What color are the squirrels where you live? Brownish gray.
Have you ever fostered an animal? No. I would struggle immensely to let it go.
Have you ever dated a fat person? Yes.
Have you ever dated someone with a fine ass body? Yes.
What are two foods you think taste good with whipped cream? I hate whipped cream, it's a texture thing.
If you eat it, what is your favorite way to eat beef? On a burger.
Do you have any medication that you keep with you at all times? Yes, an inhaler for asthma but also a med for anxiety or panic attacks.
[TW: ABUSE] Have you ever had a significant other who hit you? No, I would never in a thousand years allow this.
Do you own any exercise machines? Yes. I have a stationary bike in this spare room and there's a treadmill in the living room.
Do you have a dining room in your house? Yes, but we don't really use it unless there's a large number of people over. It's more seating.
Are you in the process of watching or re-watching a series at the moment? No.
Has anyone you know gotten a new pet recently? Ummm I'm not sure.
How old were you 10 years ago? Who were your closest friends at that point? I was 18. I was dating Jason, and close friends included Summer, Girt, Tez, Sam, and possibly still Hannia?
Do you still speak to any of them? I'm dating Girt, I'm close with Tez and Summer, and while Sam and I don't really talk nowadays, I still consider him to be basically my big brother.
Have you ever kissed someone of another race? I started saying no, but I guess actually yes; Girt's father was full Native American. I sometimes forget that; you'd never guess looking at him and his sister.
Are there any races you wouldn’t kiss? Absolutely not, it's 2024.
What is your favorite thing about your best friend? I know I can trust him. I genuinely never DON'T trust what he tells me, we prioritize healthy communication and honesty big time.
What do you mostly have in common with your best friend? We both love video games. We're also very introverted and love metal music.
Do you like it when men shave their chests? If you are a guy, do you shave? I have no preference.
What is your favourite kind of video game? Horror.
Do you watch anime? If so, what are some of your favourites? I'll watch it if I'm with someone who wants to watch TV, I have nothing against it other than television shows just normally don't entertain me as much as YouTube videos. I like Fullmetal Alchemist (+Brotherhood), Ginga Densetsu Weed, and Deadman Wonderland. I've watched a good deal of Attack on Titan and enjoyed what I saw, Girt and I eventually just drifted into watching other stuff.
Do you have any siblings? If so which one of them do you get along with the best? Yeah, a few. I think I get along best with Nicole, my youngest sibling.
What’s your favorite TV show? And who’s your favorite character from it? My favorite television show of all time is Meerkat Manor, and Mozart is my favorite meerkat.
Do people think you look like either of your parents? Does that offend you? I've heard both. As a child I remember hearing I look like my dad wouldn't really offend me, but I didn't like/get it until I was older. Not all physical traits are gender-specific.
Do you prefer regular bacon or turkey bacon? Regular, by a long shot.
Do you think it’s weird when people talk to their pets like people? I don't think this at all. Even if your pet doesn't truly understand you, I feel the interaction can't be bad for them; I would think it benefits them, at least with most animals you can have as pets. You're including them.
What is the last place, other than home, that you stayed overnight? The ER after my asthma attack.
What is the furthest you have traveled alone? The Chicago area of Illinois.
Have you ever dated someone simply for their looks? No.
What was the name of the main character in the last book you read? Ponyboy Curtis; I re-read The Outsiders. I still enjoyed it very much, but not as much as when I was in middle school.
Do you prefer pizza or hot dogs? Pizza.
What is your favorite pizza topping? I've been into pepperoni + sausage together lately.
Is anyone in your family currently in the military? Not that I know of. Definitely no one close.
What is your favorite dog breed? I have too many I consider my "favorite," but I can tell you I have a specifically soft spot for beagles.
Do you own a bikini? God no, you couldn't pay me to wear one with my current body. I'm completely for big girls wearing whatever the fuck they want, but *I* couldn't do it.
What are three of your favorite bakery items? Cinnamon rolls, donuts, muffins.
Which book series could you read again? I'm really not a re-reader; recently doing so with The Outsiders was VERY unlike me. The only reason I was really able to do it again was because I'd forgotten like... everything.
Is your last ex currently in a relationship? *shrug*
Who was the last female you were introduced to? My new psychiatrist.
Who was the last male you were introduced to? The doctor who did my colonoscopy lmao thanks for checking out my colon 👍
Is there any band out there that you like every song by them? Nope, not even Rammstein or Ozzy.
Have you ever smoked? No.
Have you ever been in a lighthouse? No. I was supposed to visit one on a 4th grade field trip, but the ocean was way too aggressive so instead we stopped at a nearer island where wild horses live. It was very fun.
Do you know anyone who always makes themselves out to be the victim? Colleen, who I haven't associated with in years and never plan to again.
How far away do you live from the house you grew up in? Like... 20ish minutes.
Have you ever been to a same-sex wedding? No.
What’s the most difficult experience you and a significant other have gone through together? Distance, with Sara. It was very difficult sometimes, especially when we really wanted the comfort of each other's presence. It got much worse once we actually met in person and got to feel what being together was like.
Would you like living on the coast? No, the effects of hurricanes along coasts are no joke.
Honestly, do you enjoy arguing? NO
Are you scared of losing the person you like to someone else? No, not really. I acknowledge we may not be together forever, but I certainly don't expect him to cheat on me. He's BEEN cheated on and was very affected by it, so it'd be a wild world where he did that to me. Early into our relationship we shared dealbreakers and cheating was one for both of us.
Do you have a hard time making decisions? I get choice paralysis FOR REAL, like it's ridiculous.
If there was a large spider in your room, would you stay in the room? I'd get the spider out.
What’s your favorite kind of meat? (vegan/vegetarian options count!) I don't know, really. I eat the most chicken, but I'm very limited in the kinds of preparation I like for chicken.
What’s the coolest or most memorable animal you’ve ever seen at a zoo? The most exciting for me was definitely meerkats, but I think the objectively "coolest" thing I saw was a leucistic alligator.
What video game have you played the most hours of? If you don’t know, just make a rough guess. So you can type /played into World of Warcraft to see exactly this and my time is FUCKING DEPRESSING, there is no game that competes against that shit.
Have you ever modeled before? No.
What’s your best friend’s favorite color? Teal.
What color was your senior prom dress? Black. I regret deleting all those pictures, I was beautiful and so fucking happy.
Which YouTuber do you feel like you could be friends with easily? Gab Smolders.
Who do you know personally that has a nice singing voice? Girt.
If you met your favorite musician, what would you ask him/her? god forbid, I would be so embarrassing lmao
What’s something you used to believe in that you don’t anymore? The Christian god and devil.
What’s something you believe everyone should have? Food, water, shelter, fun.
Who do you know that wears the most makeup? My friend Summer, she's an artist with it.
Are you anyone’s first love? Maybe, idk.
How much does your mother know about your sex life (or lack thereof)? She goes to my doctor appointments so she knows we don't have actual sex right now. She's aware we do "things," but I absolutely won't share details with her, not that she's ever asked.
What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever had an obsession with? Do you still like that thing? I'm actually very embarrassed that my hyperfixations tend to be celebrities, I guess because it makes me feel like a pre-teen. I'm oddly WAY more private about this off the Internet, though, and I don't totally understand why.
Have you ever played any of the Animal Crossing games? Do you have the new game, or do you plan on buying it? No and no.
When was the last time you were nauseous? Do you know what caused the feeling of nausea? It was the morning of my colonoscopy prep, drinking way more water than my body wanted. I couldn't finish the last cup I was supposed to have.
What brand of earbuds/earphones do you own? Do you like them? Oh I have no idea, but they're very basic earbuds. Cheap ones you can buy in bulk.
Can you remember the last time you saw a rainbow? No.
Do you have any plants or flowers in your house? What kinds? Do you like having plants in your home? Mom keeps some plants. I don't know what they're called, though. I just know they're nothing exotic or anything.

‘My Ordinary Life’ (Chap. V)
Author’s Note: I recommend reading this on Ao3 or Quotev. 
 Chapter Five Absolution V
‘Ever since you’ve born you’ve been dying. Everyday a little more you’ve been dying.  Put your hands up and reach for the sky. Cry for Absolution’
The stranger walked into his bedroom; tall, handsome and out of place. He stood next to Toby's mother. Like a powerful force of nature, his presence was immediate and electric. Commanding your attention towards him.
For a second, Toby thought the stranger was Superman, though a different looking superman, coming to rescue him and cure him of his sickness. It was a silly thought, even the young boy knew that much, but it didn't prevent that spark of hope from popping into his head.
Copper red locks fell into the stranger's face and on the bridge of his nose rested thin wire, galvin cut glasses. He was wearing work clothes: black slacks, pressed white button up, black shoes, and a tan shearling jacket that reminded Toby of something a character wore in his favorite video game. He even looked a little like the character.
The stranger's smile was small, barely noticeable, and stoic. He was strong, Toby could tell right away, and confident. He was handsome, but in a delicate and soft sort of way, and fit. Toby could tell he was muscular even through the leather jacket.
Toby swallowed. He didn't trust strangers his mother brought over, especially not ones that were visibly strong.
Toby sat up in his bed, confused by the stranger leaning against his door frame, and eyed him suspiciously. Should he have been a normal kid, he would've liked the man instantly, but years of hardship so early on in his young life made him untrusting and suspicious of all, especially adult men.
Rain pattered against the window to the left of his bed and the EKG to his right beeped and whirred, penetrating the what would have been peaceful silence. Toby looked back at the man and squinted his eyes. He so desperately wanted to trust him.
The man maintained eye contact with Toby, which only made him a little nervous, and never opened his mouth to speak. He was waiting, waiting for him to speak the first words. But he wasn't going to.
"Toby?" His mother suddenly said, appearing beside the stranger. Toby immediately went to work ignoring the situation presented to him. Wanting to appear totally uninterested, the small boy hopped down from the side of his bed, causing his Mother to squeak at the abrupt movement of her ill son, then proceeded to rummage through his rather large bedside drawer that looked more like a tool chest than a boy's bedside table. Grabbing, wrapping, unwrapping, and re-wrapping various bits of plastic holding syringe, serums, bandages and medication bottles, the boy began his regular morning routine. Filling a syringe, whilst keeping a close eye on the stranger's reaction, Toby stuck the needle into his arm with ease and tossed it once its contents had emptied. Then, he adjusted his child-size IV pole and checked the bags hanging at the top. They were fine. The last step was Toby's least favorite. Luckily he only had to do it once a week. A device was placed atop the bedside tool chest, what appeared to be a blood drawing contraption, next to a black leather journal stamped 'TOBY.' The boy scribbled something in it, making sure to check his alarm clock and document the correct date, next to what could've been hundreds of other entries hiding within the thick journal's pages. His mother cleared her throat.
"Toby. Don't you want to say hello?" She asked meekly, almost tepid.
Toby didn't respond, the boy only picked up the device on the chest and handed it to his Mother. He hated whenever his Mother spoke to him like that. Like a feral, wounded puppy. It made his face all prickly with heat. As he plopped the device in her hands, he caught a scent he hadn't smelled before. It was woody, and deep, but also sort of sweet and clean smelling. Toby looked over at the man. Cologne, he decided.
With a small sigh, the beautiful Mother with warm brunette hair took a seat next to her son on his bed and stuck the device into his arm. A little vile connected to the needle in his arm began to fill with bright red blood. His Mother winced as she always did. It was a lot of blood coming from such a small, sickly looking child, but it was necessary to keep him as he was. Not healthy, but in a constant state of undying. Every other day of the week, instead of drawing blood, Toby had to participate in a clotting test, where all that happened was a cut was made on his arm and left to bleed . . . and bleed . . . and bleed. He didn't like seeing the blood. He liked the syringe days much better, because after he was pricked, he could bandage his arm and not have to think about the puncture in his skin. But with clotting tests, he was forced to sit and watch along with his mother, copious amounts of blood leak from his arm for at least twenty minutes.
As his Mother pulled the needle from his arm, Toby met eyes with the stranger who had a strange expression on his face. Intrigue, but almost like this wasn't happening in front of him. Like Toby wasn't connected to a thousand machines and IVs.
He didn't know what to make of it.
Once the prick was cleaned and properly bandaged, just above the layers of gauze spanning from both of his hands to his elbows, Toby began trying to piece apart the man, at least as much as he could. He never liked the men his Mother brought home and this one especially was weird, but he was still trying to make up his mind whether that was a good or bad thing. The man simply watched, arms crossed, at the sad display but was still slightly smiling like when he first appeared.
Toby knew how people behaved when they saw him. It was easier to categorize them accordingly that way. Even at five he was acutely aware of how everyone around him acted. Pity was the biggest reaction. "Can I get you something?" "What can I do to help?" "Are you in any pain?" Toby never talked to any of them. Instead he liked to pretend they didn't even exist, and soon they didn't. Something strange happens when you don't acknowledge people, they tend to disappear rather quickly from you, and permanently. They always left after the perceived ineptitude to talk, but he could. He always could. It was just more entertaining for him to watch them fumble and trip over their own stupid, fake, sugary sweet words. It was his own little secret, the fact that he could speak, he had always just chosen not to.
His Mother had taken him to many a shrink to figure out why her son was mute, but none of them could figure out why and none of them could ever get him to utter even a small peep. The only person he ever spoke to was his sister Lyra, and even then it was minimal at best. After a while, his Mother gave up trying to get him to speak. Toby was talking to Lyra, and that was enough for her.
Toby's shoulder twitched aggressively.
"Jesus, Toby." She whispered. Toby hung his head. "We've gotta get that looked at." She looked up at the stranger. "He's been twitching recently. It doesn't seem like he's doing it on purpose, though. The other day during lunch he practically threw his juice. I wonder what it is."
Another thing Toby hated. Her talking like he wasn't directly next to her. She placed a gentle hand on his back and moved it up and down which seemed to ease his tension slightly.
"Hopefully nothing serious." The stranger said. He had a firm voice, it was pleasant to hear, but Toby would never admit that. The man suddenly made his way across the room and got down on one knee in front of Toby. "Your Mother tells me you don't like to talk?" He asked.
Toby glared at him, a trick he had always used to get people who simply wouldn't disappear away from him, but this time it wasn't working.
"That's a scary face." The man said with a grin. "You always greet strangers that way?"
Suddenly a hand slapped gently against Toby's back. "Toby! Cut that out!" His Mother scream-whispered at him. He ignored her and continued to glare.
"No, no, that's alright, Rach. I think it makes him look rowdy. Tough, even. It's a good look for a man, wouldn't you say, kid?"
Toby raised a brow, unwilling to be the first to break eye contact. To his surprise, the stranger looked away first.
"I guess I'm not making the best first impression." The stranger said with a grimace.
"Toby," His Mother began. "This is my boyfriend, Ryan Rogers."
Implode.
Toby's face immediately became hot and that familiar pins and needles sensation traced up his spine, shoulders, neck and face. He glared at the man.
Ryan.
"Toby?" Someone called out to him, but his eyes were still plastered on Ryan. He wasn't going to look away.
"Toby!" The voice called again.
    Tim shook Toby by the shoulders. "Toby!" He shouted.
Toby jumped as though Tim had just woken him from a deep sleep. He made an awful gasping sound and looked around confused. Tim's upper lip pulled and his hands fell from the boy's figure. Something on his face let Toby know that Tim had already made up his mind about why he hadn't heard him even though he was right in front of him. But whatever conclusion Tim had come to, he didn't let Toby in on it. Tim shook his head dismissively and adjusted his flight jacket. "C'mon. We're all ready now."
Toby nodded in a daze as Tim disappeared through the thick early morning fog. The other proxies were still a mystery to him, even after spending an entire week under their constant surveillance. He was terribly wary of them and at times even plain terrified of them. He knew he was probably a mystery and something to be wary of to them as well, but still existed the power dynamic of a teenage boy versus two psychotic grown men who have known the Operator for years. It was horribly unbalanced and Toby could never shake the feeling that he was permanently in immediate danger.
Tim seemed to be the nicer of the two, but interacting with him . . . Toby compared the sensation to walking on a tightrope over a shallow canyon. On one side, a sea of pillows and cushions for a soft landing, the other, a pit of spikes and needles filled with venom.
Brian was just a constant stream of bitterness, spite, and apathy. At least, Toby thought, he could count on him always being that way. He wasn't sure which he preferred. Both were equally as miserable and detrimental to his mentality.
Toby sat on a log near the newly extinguished fire. It was twilight, just before the sun was set to rise, and the sky was dim, bringing out the greens of the trees. Smoke swirled from the black fire pit before him and his hands, clasped together in a praying position, pressed against his nose and lips, his thumbs tucked under his chin. Though his eyes were positioned on the fire, they were wide and far gone, somewhere very far away. His right leg bounced up and down nervously and his head twitched every so often, accompanied by his 'hurling' tic as the lovely miss Wilson had called it. He knew he should be heading to meet the others, but he had to try to rid himself of the churning pit in his gut.
That morning, everything was damp and hidden behind mist. The campsite was barely visible, even when sitting in the middle of it, and anything beyond it was completely hidden from sight. A rough wind blew, striking his back.
The hood of his brown jacket was pulled over his head, underneath, a black turtleneck that Brian had gifted him the previous night, telling him he wasn't dressed warm enough for the weather. New bandages now covered his hands and wrists, trailing all the way up to his elbows so he had to roll up his jacket sleeves, and his ashen, light brown nearly blond, curled tufts stuck out in every direction from beneath his hood. Grey, doe eyes like pools of winter water were pulled down by dusty purple bags, completing his sunken look along with his hollow cheeks and a sporadic strip of freckles spangled across his face. His skin was nearly grey, along with everything else which made him look terribly diseased, and his thin, frail looking frame hunched over slightly, elbows placed upon his knees.
He was focused on something, but it wasn't anything he was looking at. In his mind he could hear them, a cacophony of swirling moans and groans like ghosts, invisible, yet present, hollow, yet haunting, and full of agony. Stern, but airy like smoke.
The voices had returned. And they had yet to stop.
Toby's leg continued to bounce, shaking his silhouette, and he focused intently on the voices, trying to discern why they had returned and what they were saying. He hadn't heard them since the night he killed his stepfather, and he had adjusted just fine to the silence. But now they are back.
What has changed?
That wasn't much of a question. Everything. Everything has changed. But why did this have to remain the same?
Toby continued to bounce. He really should be listening to Tim and heading over to the car, but it was unsettling. He couldn't make out a single word.
They were whispers, maybe they weren't even speaking any words, but with them ringing in his ears he had no choice but to focus on them before doing anything else.
Suddenly, he collapsed between his legs, clasping his bandaged hands over his ears, gripping his hair.
Cracking, piercing wails battered at his eardrums so fiercely he thought they might just burst. They were screaming things at him, but he had no idea what. He winced and writhed. But they just kept shouting at him!
"Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it—" He continued to repeat barely above a whisper, rocking back and forth. "Why? Why are you all shouting? What do you want? I thought you all had finally died! Just stop! I can't understand when you're screaming all at once! Stop it, stop it—"
"Toby?" A hand fell on his shoulder.
Toby jumped so violently, he fell straight into the dirt. He looked at Tim, who had likely come over to see why Toby hadn't followed him, with a wild look in his eyes. He pulled his knees close to him and continued to whisper nonsense.
Tim seemed just as shocked as Toby.
"Did something happen?" He asked suspiciously. Toby stared at the ground, still mumbling. It took him a moment before he could speak.
"N-no. It's nothing . . . No, it's fine." He stumbled, slurring his words. Tim held out his gloved hand and Toby grabbed onto it, hoisting himself up with ease.
"Man, you're light." Tim remarked, though there wasn't any weight to his words. He was only making small talk. He was still eyeing Toby who dusted off his jeans and the bandages on his hands that caught his fall. He hadn't noticed Tim's expression, or anything in that moment, he held a thumb to his bottom lip and looked around the deserted campsite. Earlier that morning Brian had woken him up to help them pack up their things, not that there was much to pack, and wouldn't explain to Toby exactly what they were packing for or where they were going.
"Tim! Toby!" Brian suddenly called from somewhere amidst the fog. "Get your asses over here!"
Toby sighed.
"Get your asses over here!" Tim mocked in an extra strong southern accent that Toby never noticed before.
"You're both southern." He stated more than asked. Tim nodded.
"Probably. No other real reason we'd talk this way." Tim said, still eyeing him. "Of course Brian knows for sure, says he grew up somewhere in Alabama, and our twangs, I guess, are really similar. I think we're from the same place, but Brian doesn't like that theory very much. Especially since you're here now."
"Wh-what do I have to do with where you're from?"
"You always shout your questions? That fire damage your ears or something?" Tim asked, looking concerned. He was genuine which somehow stung Toby more than if he was just plain insulting him.
"No . . ." He said quietly. He hadn't realized he was shouting, but with all the noises and screams in his head it made perfect sense.
"Anyway. You're from Colorado, right? If we—" He wasn't asking, but Toby had to look at him for confirmation. Was he from Colorado?
"Shit." Tim said, shaking his head, bewildered. "You don't remember?"
The pair had stopped walking.
Toby furrowed his brows. No. He doesn't remember. Where was he from?
He gripped at his hair again and clenched his eyes shut, trying his hardest to pry his skull open and claw his way to the right answer. Tim placed a hand on top of one of his.
"Kid. You're fine." He said softly, pulling Toby's hands from his hair. "You are from Colorado. You're from Veilwood."
Toby blinked. If he didn't know where he was from, how the hell did Tim? "I never told you that."
"No, of course you didn't." Tim said 'of course' a lot, like Toby was supposed to know everything about a memory erasing, time warping, teleporting creature. "That night . . . the night you set fire to your neighborhood. You passed out. Didn't you?"
Toby nodded. He passed out and woke up in a forest he'd never seen before. Then the Operator appeared and made him its proxy. His hands trailed across the underside of his wrists.
"Toby! Tim!" Brian yelled again. Neither paid him any attention.
"We did that." Tim stated.
"What?" Toby hissed, shoulders rising to his ears. "What the hell did y-you do to-o me?"
"Look, we didn't have a choice. We didn't bash your skull in or anything like that. No chloroform either. The Master can knock out whoever he chooses at will."
"What the hell else are you not telling me-e about that thing?" Toby snarled. A hazy sound then filled his ears, so subtle he barely noticed it.
"A lot. But Brian and I both agreed it's best you learn yourself. You don't want us telling you everything."
"What kind of b-backwards logic is that? That fucking monster can knock me ou-out at any g-given moment or wipe my memories, but because two serial killers decided it's best for me to learn whatever else it can fuh-fucking do by myself then-- O-oh! W-well, I should just bend over and ta-tak-ke it!" The sound began to grow louder in his ears, but Toby had a sneaking suspicion Tim could hear it as well. He suddenly forgot about their argument. "What is that?" His voice shook.
"Junior." Tim said dangerously. Toby took the hint and stopped talking. The sound crescendoed then began to wane away until there was only the sound of the woods around them.
No one spoke.
Fast-paced footsteps crunched towards them and Brian appeared from the fog. He looked furious. "Car. Now." Was all he said. Tim and Toby followed his instructions immediately and Toby thought it was odd that Tim was obeying him. The proxies trudged over to the truck, Brian's beige '77 Ford pickup, when Toby noticed a black bag in the trunk on top of the camping supplies. It was open. He looked around to make sure neither of the other proxies would see him snooping around and quickened his pace to reach the trunk before the others. The bag was a large sports bag, bigger than one Toby had ever seen before, and the flap was still hiding its contents, but it was completely unzipped. With one last furtive glance over his shoulder, Toby slowly opened the bag and felt his heart drop to his feet.
Knives, daggers, rope, duct tape, batons, crowbars, and his two hatchets he thought he'd lost the night of Paul's murder were sitting inside. A strange sensation overcame him. Toby thought he might throw up, his stomach twisting so intensely, but also came with it a rush of excitement. He felt far, far away staring at the weaponry, wide-eyed, nearly smiling. Like digging up some part of himself he had long since locked away, like an archaeologist of his own mind. His heart was beating out of his chest, but he was perfectly calm.
The footsteps of the others were suddenly loud and Toby shut the bag and began tugging at the handle to the backseat. Brian saw him and held up the key fob in his hand, pressing a button over and over, clearly demonstrating the truck was unlocked. The vehicle made various clicking sounds as he did so and Toby tugged at the handle harder that time, but the door still wouldn't budge.
"It gets stuck." Brian stinged, his voice echoing remnants of his anger. "Tug it to the right, then pull."
Toby did. The door opened.
He swung the door shut as he sat inside and inspected the car. It was clearly old, its floors stained and covered in dirt, but the leather interior was still miraculously intact. Not to mention the engine rumbled beautifully too. Brian obviously cared about his car.
Brian got into the driver's seat, Tim on the passenger side, and adjusted the rear view mirror with a clearing of his throat. Toby looked around for any sign of a seat belt before accidentally meeting Brian's eyes in the mirror. Expecting some sort of insult his eyes got large, but to his crushing surprise, Brian flashed him a smile.
"Everyone set?" He asked.
"Jesus, just drive Mr. Hyde." Tim groaned, resting his head in his hand against the door.
"You're calling me two-faced?" Brian bickered back, but it was playful, there wasn't an ounce of venom to his words. Toby felt like he was meeting two different people all of a sudden
Psychopaths. He thought.
"Where to?" Brian met Toby's eyes in the mirror again. Toby was instantly uncomfortable. He had no idea where to draw the boundary lines with those two and eye contact with the Proxy he feared the most was anything but relaxing.
"I get to pick? Wh-why?" Toby snarked.
"Cause you're the new recruit! C'mon city boy, we are still in your county."
Toby straightened his posture at that. "We are?"
"Yeah, National Forest is still King's County, isn't it?"
He nodded.
"So pick the place, kid. Have anything in mind?" Brian rested his head against the seat, waiting for his response.
Toby didn't need to think. "Can I pick who?"
"No." Brian started. The truck was now moving steadily down an old highway through trees so tall, no matter how Toby leaned he couldn't see the tops of them. Even in the car he could hear the road decaying beneath the tires as pebbles and dirt were kicked up, striking the underside of the vehicle.
"Why." Toby shot back.
"Because I said so."
"The Operator said wuh-we're a team." He said dangerously. Brian looked at him from the rearview mirror, seemingly taken aback by his tone, before looking back at the road.
"And I think you're not experienced enough to start picking people."
"But I-I can pick the place?"
"Not anymore. We're going to Grey house." Brian said, once again using codes and language Toby was not privy to. Tim nodded and opened the glove compartment, pulling out a thick spiral journal with numerous colored sticky notes jotting out from its sides. Just the sight of it made Toby feel sick.
"Anyone going to tell muh-me what 'Grey house' is?" Toby asked, kicking his shoes up onto the backseat and sitting with his back against the door. The truck suddenly jumped over what he could only assume was a speed bump or a pothole and his stomach lurched and throat pinched shut. He hugged his legs and hid his face from all light behind his hood and arms.
"It's a grey house."
"Thanks."
"Let me speak, would you? Like we said before, we pick the place, the people, the time and how. But we're not stupid about it, or careless. We study potentials for a long time before they're chosen."
Toby sat up and rolled his eyes, staring out the back window. Chosen. Chosen for slaughter. This is sick.
"Yeah." Brian growled, his grip tightening against the steering wheel. "It really. Is."

2, 7, 8, 12, 16, 20, 23, 25, 27, and 29 Michinaga and Neon
2. When I think I truly started to like them (or dislike them, if you’ve sent me a character I don’t like)
Neon: she was always near and dear to me but when I realized she was kinda a dumdum. I love a girl with no braincells. I love her so much.
Michinaga: I recently reread my initial liveblogs when I called him "freckleface bitchboy" before I learnt his name, and I always meant it affectionately, so yeah. Always. But probably during the Concentration Game especially, when we found out more about his past
7. A quote of them that you remember
Neon: I can't recall it word by word, but I really love the scene when she grabs her mother's wrist as she tries to hit her again and asserts that she WILL escape
Michinaga: that simple. "And?" when Beroba points out he is just like those riders he hated. That made me feral and mental for many different reasons
8. Your favorite outfit of them
Neon: her outfits are always so cute, I really can't pick one
Michinaga: OBVIOUSLY HIS EDGY UPGRADE, ARE WE /JOKING/. THE HAIR. THE CLOTHES. ESPECIALLY WHEN HE HAS THE ONI BELLS ON. HOLY SHIT AM I GAY. AND I AM STEALING HIS GENDER
12. Sexuality hc!
Bisexuals, the both of them. Michinaga probably has a slight preference to men, but he is still Bi Bi Bi
16. A childhood headcanon
Neon: gosh this is difficult. But I imagine her to be the kind of child who wanted to be adventurous, but they didn't let her, for like. Obvious reasons. But also the kind where if you didn't look at her for two seconds, she was climbing on a cabinet
Michinaga: I do not think he has anyone. Like. Not at all. He had Tooru from childhood, and they basically grew up together, not having anyone else. I headcanon that they were foster kids who had trouble finding their footing anywhere else, until their boss found them, got them a job, and the rest is history.
20. A weird headcanon
Neon: can't cook. At all. You know that one discord video where the guy tries to make instant ramen and fucks up spectacularly and the entire chat loses their minds? That's Neon feat. her polycule
Michinaga: he definitely had more mutations from the Jyamato Buckle from what we had seen. Maybe there was a reason for that many layers. There is so much body horror that can be put into this bad boy
23. Future headcanon
It matches with what I want for the rest of their polycule. Happy. Alive. Together. Remembering. Healing.
25. When do you think they acted the most ooc
Neon: DEZASTAR ARC. No I do not mean her being the Dezastar, that's all well and good, but even BEFORE it, the way she acted like she didn't even notice Keiwa was there? Uhm what? Sis you just saved Ace alongside him a little while ago what the fuck was that? Keiwa is your friend? Huh?
Michinaga: uhhh Takahashi can I get some uhhhh fucking payoff to the hints that he cared for Keiwa and even the "make me believe in you" bullshit he said to Ace. Now that he obviously seemed angry that Neon and Keiwa remembered, and his displeasure at Neon being dragged through the mud by Beroba, I am HOPING we get something out of it but. Please.
27. If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet?
Neon: Poppy, because I think about that Ex-Aid crossover a lot and I think they would be Delightful. They could play DoReMiFa Beat together. Also maybe Izu for Artificial Girls purposes.
Michinaga: LET HIM HUNT KUROTO FOR SPORT PLEASE TAKAHASHI I BEG YOU, ZOMBIE ON ZOMBIE VIOLENCE, I NEED TO SEE IT. Also Rudi Wenders from Vamp because that would feel like headbutting a mirror. Also Olteca because they look so fucking similar, and I want to see what would happen.
29. How do you think they would be as a parent? (and if they are a parent, how do you think they would be if they weren’t?)
Again, I'm looking at this in an ot4 child context, but I think they'd both somewhat struggle. Neon because she doesn't want to suffocate them the same way her mom was overbearing, but she wants them to feel loved, unlike her... but she'd figure it out. Michinaga would be terrified of having a child, but like. He'd also figure it out. And hell hath no fury than Michinaga, if his child is hurt, he would be ready to go on a WARPATH, the others would have to hold him back. (Like they are all protective, but the rest are a bit more reasonable about it. Michinaga is ready to go scorched earth.)

Nobody talks about the Misfortune Sisters and honestly that’s just kind of tragic because during my play through of the game they, especially Charm, have been my favorite battles/interactions.
I’m sorry but Legends Arceus gave us the Misfortune Sisters and everyone sleeps on them.
You have Coin (likely ancestor of Team Galactic’s Saturn)-who is implied to have some sort of dispute that soured her disposition with her clan, causing her to leave and take up work with the Galaxy Team. Something soured her attitude towards people, where before she had “always been willing to help others, if begrudgingly” (Irida’s words). The incident also seemed to have left some doubts in her abilities as a trainer, her remarks when she loses a battle are rather self deprecating. 
The there’s Clover, impatient, clever, and frankly kind of feral. She just up and left the Diamond Clan one day to join the Security Corps, only to quit that job to become a thief. Nobody in the Diamond Clan knew where she went and were still actively looking for her by the time Adaman bumped into them with Akari.
Charm is probably my favorite antagonist I’ve seen in a while. She is one of the two people in the game that is IMMEDIATELY sympathetic to Akari’s case instead of suspicious. This is a child being sent to the work most adults are to afraid too, without any training of her own. She see’s Akari’s kindness, and tell’s her off the bat that she should be careful. “Not everyone can afford that luxury.” She’s one of the original Galaxy Team members from Kanto and she went “f*** it, I’m done.”
I WISH PLA got a little more development time so that we could have seen a proper throw down between her and Kamado, as well as Coin and Clover with their former clan leaders. 
I want to know so bad what made them leave their homes for a thief’s lifestyle. You can sort of piece together Coin’s situation, and how it possibly involves the warden of another poison-fighting type, but as for the others were left kind of clueless.

They Probably Think Ingo’s Dead
TLDR: 
Why is everyone assuming the people in the present thinks Ingo is missing?
The most likely scenario (to me anyways) is that they think a tunnel collapsed on him, given the line of his work and how violent the time rifts seem to be.
-//-
The Subway Bosses are investigating the strange readings from ATO’s navigational system that’s messing with the trains.
They reach the most concentrated region- an older but still sturdy and usable part of the tracks- and start searching for the source.
Their in the middle of investigating the tracks, walking opposite directions when the time rift hits, causing extreme structural damage.
Chaos erupts as the Subway Bosses try to keep the tunnel from collapsing around them, pokemon bursting from their pokeballs to help. Concretes and asphalts falling around them and they simply don’t have the maneuverability to dodge.
Each is trying to reach the other- to grab him and get the hell out of there hopefully but both end up getting nailed in the skull with a particularly large piece of ceiling, knocking them out.
Their pokemon are too focused on trying to keep them from getting crushed to really do much when the time rift until it opens proper. Ingo and a good portion of the tunnel is taken and the rift closes just as quickly.
Chandelure’s scream could be heard through out Nimbasa City.
The rest of the Subway workers- having been on the move as soon as the alarms went off, eventually find a badly injured Emmet and the two’s pokemon (a small legion of incredibly powerful, incredibly freaked out pokemon) trying to get him to wake up.
There’s no trace of his brother- despite weeks of digging and searching later.
Subway Boss Ingo is just, gone.

Alright why aren’t there any Ben 10 Danny Phantom crossovers where Skulker and Khyber meet up and end up trying to determine who REALLY is the greatest hunter.
And not in a “I hate you and I’m so much better at hunting than you” sense. More like “Oh I finally met someone who appreciates my craft as much as I do and is the closest person to my level of skill that I’ve met. Let’s make this fun” sort of sense.

Street Fighter: The Movie is a goddamn masterpiece. I said what I said. Obviously, I know the film is terrible. Just, garbage. Straight stagnant, tepid, dumpster water. But, in that awful mire of sludge and refuse, there is a certain charm to be had. Like going out to a field after a torrential downpour, and just rolling in the mud. Slumming it through the seediest dive bars with your friends, picking fights and being ridiculous. This movie has the same energy as an alleyway raccoon, looking to mug you for the rest of your half eaten, three in the morning, hangover preempting burrito. It’s just feral, chaotic, nonsense and I love every goddamn second of it! Now, before you try and say I’m just an asshole who devours schlock, that isn’t the case. I love all forms of cinema. I was one of the few people who genuinely enjoyed Tenet and actually understood Stoker, after three viewings. I am a staunch supporter of the auteur and relish the creativity in their art. I am, at heart, a lover of storytelling and kind of a snob when it comes to cinema. But, at the same time, one of my favorite Godzilla films is Goji versus Megalon and that sh*t is abject trash. I find merit in the absurd and, sometimes, something can be so bad that it comes out the other side of preposterous. The Room is a film like that. The Rock is another. Really, anything Tax Money Desperate Nic Cage is in. There is is the cinematic sweet spot where you can be just the worst, and still entertain. So bad, it’s good, in quite a few ways. Street Fighter: The Move finds that balance perfectly.
I watched this movie opening day with my uncle, way back in the mid-Nineties. Street Fighter was all the rage, absolutely tearing up the arcades. I believe Championship Edition had just come out and I was learning how to play with my darling Cammy White. But dem cheeks, tho! I was nine or ten years old and, after witnessing the glory o Bison on screen for the first time, left he theater crushed. That was the first time I distinctly remember being disappointed by a film. Even my little fifth grade ass knew that sh*t was trash. There were just SO many things wrong with that film. Ryu wasn’t the main character and Ken was just some white dude in slacks. Sagat was this old man with a goofy eye patch Who the f*ck was Captain Sawada and where the hell was Fei Long or T. Hawk? The less spoke about what they did to Blanka and Dhalsim, the better. But the worst transgression this film made, was that pitiful ass hadoken Ryu threw during the climax. It was like a little flashlight in his palms. Sh*t was mad whack! So much of this movie was wrong; just flat-out incorrect to the lore. Why would they change so much of the story? You’ve basically stripped the identity of Street Fighter, out of Street Fighter. This is before I understand what Hollywood does to thing during adaption. The horrible, terrible, things they do in adaption. Especially to Video Game narratives… But it’s not all doom and gloom. There were a few things i rather enjoyed about the film. Obviously, the fact Cammy was in really went a long way to redeeming a ton of the sh*ttiness. I was a pretty big fan of JCVD back in the day so him getting cast as Guile was a boon to me. I adored the Chun-Li trio. I’ve been in love with Ming Na Wen for years, and that probably started with this film. E. Honda was awesome, Zangief was delightfully dense, and f*cking Dee Jay stole every scene he was in. That sh*t sparked pure joy for me but all of that, everything in this film pales in comparison to Raul Julia’s purely farcical take on M. Bison!
“For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me? It was Tuesday.”
Let me tell you, even as a child, that line hit different. It was just so confident, so matter-of-fact, and the way Raul delivered it? Sir, you couldn’t anymore condescending. That smug, blisteringly callous, matter-of-fact way, he just SAID that sh*t was everything. Dude basically genocided Chun-Li’s village and was just like, “Yeah, but who are you again?.” Absolutely brilliant. Raul Julia's performance in this film, is one of the best I have ever seen in my entire f*cking life. Back when I was a kid, I just thought it was a fun time. As an adult who understands film, I know, for a fact, Raul put every ounce of his joy into that performance. It's not M. Bison, it's Raul Julia, channeling his Gomez Addams, while performing Bison for his kids and i love that. During this entire filming process, Julia was dying from cancer. He took this gig, his last acting job, because his children loved Street Fighter. This performance is a gift to them and he gave it everything. He left them something special, something that has endured for decades. Street Fighter: The Movie is bad. It is. But Raul Julia is f*cking brilliant. He outshines everything in that film and makes it more than worth a watch. I loved him as a kid and I appreciate him as an adult. If you have two hours to kill, definitely check it out. Keep in mind, it's kind of the worst, but you won't care. The second Julia saunters onscreen, you'll be lost in his apologetically hammy, scene chewing, showmanship.

I find merit in the absurd and, sometimes, something can be so bad that it comes out the other side of preposterous. The Room is a film like that. The Rock is another. Really, anything Tax Money Desperate Nic Cage is in. There is is the cinematic sweet spot where you can be just the worst, and still entertain. So bad, it’s good, in quite a few ways. Street Fighter: The Move finds that balance perfectly.
I watched this movie opening day with my uncle, way back in the mid-Nineties. Street Fighter was all the rage, absolutely tearing up the arcades. I believe Championship Edition had just come out and I was learning how to play with my darling Cammy White. But dem cheeks, tho! I was nine or ten years old and, after witnessing the glory o Bison on screen for the first time, left he theater crushed. That was the first time I distinctly remember being disappointed by a film. Even my little fifth grade ass knew that sh*t was trash. There were just SO many things wrong with that film. Ryu wasn’t the main character and Ken was just some white dude in slacks. Sagat was this old man with a goofy eye patch Who the f*ck was Captain Sawada and where the hell was Fei Long or T. Hawk? The less spoke about what they did to Blanka and Dhalsim, the better. But the worst transgression this film made, was that pitiful ass hadoken Ryu threw during the climax. It was like a little flashlight in his palms. Sh*t was mad whack! So much of this movie was wrong; just flat-out incorrect to the lore. Why would they change so much of the story? You’ve basically stripped the identity of Street Fighter, out of Street Fighter. This is before I understand what Hollywood does to thing during adaption. The horrible, terrible, things they do in adaption. Especially to Video Game narratives… But it’s not all doom and gloom. There were a few things i rather enjoyed about the film. Obviously, the fact Cammy was in really went a long way to redeeming a ton of the sh*ttiness. I was a pretty big fan of JCVD back in the day so him getting cast as Guile was a boon to me. I adored the Chun-Li trio. I’ve been in love with Ming Na Wen for years, and that probably started with this film. E. Honda was awesome, Zangief was delightfully dense, and f*cking Dee Jay stole every scene he was in. That sh*t sparked pure joy for me but all of that, everything in this film pales in comparison to Raul Julia’s purely farcical take on M. Bison!
“For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me? It was Tuesday.”
Let me tell you, even as a child, that line hit different. It was just so confident, so matter-of-fact, and the way Raul delivered it? Sir, you couldn’t anymore condescending. That smug, blisteringly callous, matter-of-fact way, he just SAID that sh*t was everything. Dude basically genocided Chun-Li’s village and was just like, “Yeah, but who are you again?.” Absolutely brilliant. Raul Julia's performance in this film, is one of the best I have ever seen in my entire f*cking life. Back when I was a kid, I just thought it was a fun time. As an adult who understands film, I know, for a fact, Raul put every ounce of his joy into that performance. It's not M. Bison, it's Raul Julia, channeling his Gomez Addams, while performing Bison for his kids and i love that. During this entire filming process, Julia was dying from cancer. He took this gig, his last acting job, because his children loved Street Fighter. This performance is a gift to them and he gave it everything. He left them something special, something that has endured for decades. Street Fighter: The Movie is bad. It is. But Raul Julia is f*cking brilliant. He outshines everything in that film and makes it more than worth a watch. I loved him as a kid and I appreciate him as an adult. If you have two hours to kill, definitely check it out. Keep in mind, it's kind of the worst, but you won't care. The second Julia saunters onscreen, you'll be lost in his apologetically hammy, scene chewing, showmanship.

Ooh this is fun. I'm not tagging people because for some reason I get anxious about that but any writers that see this please feel free to participate!
1. Pack Dynamics - Fire Emblem Three Houses
Ship: Yuri/Byelth
I've never been more proud of myself for finishing a fanfic honestly. This was an ambitious attempt to create a route where all houses come together AND the Ashen Wolf House gets to take center stage and bond. Honestly the relationship between Yuri and Byelth isn't even the main point. I do a lot of relationship exploring in this one so check it out if you're interested in: feral/hurt Claude, tri-house trauma bonding, the Ashen wolves getting their day in the sun, Yuri's mom/backstory, feral Linhardt, Dimitri and Felix reconciling, Sothis and Byleth having a relationship, Sothis and Rhea getting to have a chat
2. A Study in Inevitability - Voltron
Ship: Sheith
Another fic I'm amazed I finished. This one is simple: S8 was a garbage fire and I hated basically everything that happened. This is a fix it....that chooses not to ignore S8 but to climb out of the gross pit it left fans in. Curtis and Shiro still marry...and no he doesn't suddenly become super toxic to end that marriage. Lots of exploration of relationships, trust, importance of not making big life changes while healing from trauma, and interplay between sex and longevity of a relationship.
3. Our Love Has Teeth - Genshin Impact
Ship: Venlumi
I wrote this for the lovely @2isted-chocol8 on her birthday. It's definitely one of my most fun fics to reread. Tropes include: sex pollen (sorta), vampire bites (sorta), Jean being mean, all of Mondstadt losing their damn minds, and of course...Venti and Lumi both liking it rough. Very explicit. Can't state that enough.
4. On these streets we sell death and the omission of memory - Code Vein
Ships: mehhhh. Arguably Louis/F!Protag but not even
This is gonna surprise some people I'm sure but this was actually one of my favorites to write. Code Vein is not the most accomplished souls like game ever. It's tropey AF and is WAY into fanservice. That being said...I am a fan that it serviced with its vampires meet post apocalyptic world meets dark souls meets anime vibes. And I loved it. The music fucking slaps and I refuse to hear otherwise. This fic is an ode to Louis Amamiya and Coco, two of the characters I liked a lot. Wanted to explore their pre-game days and flesh them out some more.
5. Tall Tale Tango - Genshin Impact
Ship: Chilumi
I hesitated to put this on the list because I have conflicting feelings about it these days. Writing this fic made me so happy, man. It was a ton of fun and everyone was so engaged with it. But I think I've found that popularity is a double edge sword cuz I had never had anyone plagiarize my work before until this. Do I still think it is a great fic? Yes. There's a lot to like. Many many many tropes namely the "fake dating to keep the family happy" trope. I liked writing Childe and Lumi as bickering but warm. And writing Childe's family was a blast too. It is just a bit soured for me by all the drama that happened afterwards. I do read all the comments it gets still. I love that you guys love this story and that will never change.
Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗(You don't have to reply if you've already been tagged, tho~)
Thank you so much for sending me this, anon!
I don't tend to self-rec, but I think these 5 are my favorite works:
Misumena is my first/only commission, a Leo/Corrin fic. I worked really, really hard on this, and I think it turned out to be what I wanted. It's some of the prose I'm proudest of!
Spell Breaker is a genderbent Yamato/Hibiki fic that is probably the one I reread the most. It's the fic that made me realize how much I like writing from the POV of the top, and Yamato's voice is one that I've worked really hard to nail. He's my forever girl.
Cockscomb is a crossover smutfic for Akira Kurusu/Kazuya Minegishi from Devil Survivor, and it's my favorite AU I've ever come up with. I wish sensual incubus dream eating had caught on more lol
My second Yuri/f!Byleth fic and my favorite of the ones I've written. I really like sexy, buff ladies and beautiful men who appreciate those ladies. I definitely went all in on the self-indulgence with this one, and writing such a physically action-oriented fic was an interesting challenge.
Penetration Test is an Iwai/Akira cyberpunk AU and, to date, the only novel-length work I've ever finished. I was incredibly motivated to write this one, and I got to really relish in my love of androids and tired dads. Iwai has become one of my favorite characters to write since.
Thanks again for sending this, anon! I'm tagging @each-uisge-and-glashtyn, @cinefarious, @kairiofknives, @monstrousmoonshine, and @cienturies for this, but please consider yourself tagged if you're interested in doing this too!

Lover - Taylor Swift - Brothers and Dateables
Lucifer: False God
They say the road gets hard and you get lost when you're led by blind faith But we might just get away with it Religion's in your lips Even if it's a false god We'd still worship this love
Sacrilegious Lucifer? It’s more likely than you think. The smooth jazz sound of this sound, the blatant sexuality laced with tenderness, the blasphemy of considering your relationship with a demon as a religion all its own. It’s perfect. Lucifer would absolutely fuck you to this song. 
Mammon: Paper Rings
I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings You're the one I want I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this Darling, you're the one I want
Greedy, greedy Mammon who is obsessed with having the best of the best but would give it all up in a heartbeat if you asked him to. He was just supposed to be your demon nanny but somehow you managed to burrow right under his skin and make a home for yourself, you stupid lovely human. Even though he’d never willingly admit it, he’d marry you with paper rings or even no rings if it meant he could have you. What does stuff matter when he has you?
Levi: Nice to Have a Friend
"Wanna hang out?" Yeah, sounds like fun Video games, you pass me a note Sleeping in tents It's nice to have a friend
A HIGHLY underrated song from this album and one of my favorites. It’s so so soft and fits your friendship/relationship with Levi perfectly. The slow progression from friends playing video games to confidants to lovers; all paired with the underlying theme of being best friends at the core and that being the most important aspect. Chefs kiss. 
Satan: Lover
My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue All's well that ends well to end up with you Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover And you'll save all your dirtiest jokes for me And at every table, I'll save you a seat, lover
Another very soft song. A promise of dedication to someone, of building a life together where the other will always have a seat saved for them. You and Satan could absolutely dance around listening to this song, and it got him thinking about his past and how he never fully felt he could be more than Lucifer’s wrath until you showed up and taught him he can be his own person.
Asmo: I Think He Knows
He got that boyish look that I like in a man I am an architect, I'm drawing up the plans He's so obsessed with me, and boy I understand
Another highly underrated song on the album. A wonderful bop for that infatuation stage you first have with someone new in your life. This song sounds how I imagine Asmo would make you feel: a quick beating heart, an extra skip to your step, and constantly daydreaming about him. Of course, he would be the same way, and I love the energy of knowing the person you’re obsessed with is just as into you. 
Beel: London Boy
He likes my American smile Like a child when our eyes meet, darling, I fancy you
I think this particular section is the entire selling point. London Boy may not work super well with Beel, though maybe it does considering the stoic nature of the British/demons compared to the exuberance of Americans/humans and you being shown all around his homeland, but mainly I was sold by the idea of Beel being absolutely smitten with his curious, bubbly human who loves him so openly and deeply despite his sin and demonic nature.
Belphie: Cruel Summer
Killing me slow, out the window I'm always waiting for you to be waiting below Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes What doesn't kill me makes me want you more
If the song doesn’t make you feel a little unhinged, can it really be paired with Belphie? I swear this song always makes me feral, the same way he does. It’s knowing something is such a bad decision and doing it anyway (helping him out of the attic) and then inevitably falling for that person when you know it can’t be a thing because the people around you (and the murder) make it impossible. You accidentally fell in love with your murderer and, honestly, I can’t think of a crueler love or a better brother to fit “he looks up grinning like a devil”. 
Diavolo: Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince
It's you and me There's nothing like this Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince We're so sad, we paint the town blue Voted most likely to run away with you
One of my first UR cards was Diavolo’s “it’s lonely being me” and I’ve been tormented by the idea of how isolating Diavolo’s life must be and then the birthday event really solidified the fact that this poor man believes he really has subjects, not friends. You’re the only person he knows wants him for him, not his status, and you’re so genuine in every interaction with him. He would love to just run away with you and you would, if he asked.
Barbatos: The Archer
All the king's horses, all the king's men Couldn't put me together again 'Cause all of my enemies started out friends Help me hold onto you
This choice is heavily influenced by the sound of the song; slow and steady until the emotional build up at the end where you can hear the desperate need for a lasting connection. It makes me think of Barbatos and his inability to dedicate his life/time to others due to his role and how his experience with time travel would make him even more susceptible to the sadness of trying to hold onto something or someone. 
Solomon: Cornelia Street
Barefoot in the kitchen Sacred new beginnings That became my religion, listen I hope I never lose you I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
Same vulnerability as The Archer but on the positive side rather than the sad side. A hopeful new beginning with someone that you want so badly to keep hold of, especially after months of back and forth where you’re trying to figure out exactly where you stand with that person and if you even have a chance. It’s the wonderful feeling of finally getting what you wanted so badly and then being terrified that you’re going to lose it again. It’s Solomon’s state of being for this relationship. 
Simeon: Daylight
I once believed love would be burning red But it's golden Like daylight, like daylight
I don’t know how to explain how I know it but I know that loving Simeon and being loved by him feels like stepping out into the first warm sunlight in spring after a long winter. It’s going from a passionate roller coaster of a relationship to comforting stability and steady love. It’s everything. Just let me love him please.

SFW Alphabet|| Megumi Fushiguro
Tumblr media
A/N: Uhhhh I’m back on my bullshit >:) it’s missing Fushiguro hours folks.
Word Count: 2050
Tumblr media
A: Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
(If you want some more in depth affection headcanons click here)
Fushiguro is someone who isn’t big on pda but makes up for it in private. In public, he’ll hold your hand but in private he’s laying i your lap while you massage his scalp. Basically, he’s a big softie that just represses his urge to cuddle until he’s alone with you.
B: Best Friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
Best friend Megumi is literally the president of the Y/N defense squad. If anyone has a problem with you, they have a problem with him. Of course, you have to rein him in sometimes and remind him you can fight your own battles, but just know he’s lookin out for you.
C: Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
Fushiguro loves to cuddle, but he will repress the urge to do so for as long as possible. Because of that, he doesn’t let you go, preferring to cling to you throughout the night. His cuddles are always deceptively loose too. His arms give you just enough wiggle room but the second you try to get up, it’s like fighting two pythons.
D: Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
I don’t think he ever really planned on settling down, Megumi figured that he’d die long before he ever got the chance to settle down. Everyday is pretty much a new experience in terms of domesticity for him, he doesn’t have plans for the future, but as long as you’re with him, he’ll be happy.
E: Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
If he ever had to break up with someone, he’d probably ask for help on how to do so. The first person he’d ask (regrettably) would be Gojo who’d tell Megumi to just ghost the person. After asking around some more, he figured Kugisaki’s approach of getting it over with as bluntly as possible (although less mean) was the best option.
F: Fiance(e) (How would they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
Megumi isn’t really the type for wedding ceremonies. He’s all about commitment (even though working up to marriage for him is longer than most) but he’s not a fan of being the center of attention, so a wedding ceremony/reception wouldn’t be his thing. If you wanted a ceremony, he’d be willing to compromise somewhat but otherwise, he’s perfectly fine with just going to the courthouse.
G: Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
He’s kind of rough around the edges. In private, he can be the sweetest, most tender soul, but in public he’ll put 7 yards of distance between you both if you try to hug him. Basically, he’s very shy, so anything that’ll draw too much attention is a no go (he isn’t opposed to linking pinkies though).
H: Hugs( Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?
At first Megumi really only hugged you when he was missing you, sad, or tired. Over time though, he got better at becoming more open with his affection and he’ll hug you whenever he feels the urge to. Despite that though, his hugs still have an undercurrent of desperation in them. He holds on just as tight each time like he’s afraid you’ll disappear.
I: I love you (How fast do they say the L-word)
He’s operating on a very strict ‘If you don’t say it, I won’t’ policy and as such this man will not say a single thing to you unless prompted. He knows deep down that he loves you and that you set off butterflies in his stomach every time you smile, but he never really thought to verbalize that until you say ‘I love you’ first.
J: Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous)
Megumi doesn’t get jealous, he’s fought side by side with you and he knows you’re more than capable of fending off any unwanted suitors. Megumi put a lot of trust into you by already being in a relationship so to him, it makes no sense to be jealous over you. That all being said, he’s not above the occasional side eye if someone’s getting a little too buddy buddy.
K: Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
On a normal day, his kisses are so natural, he’s so slow and the pressure is just enough to have you thinking you’ve got all the time in the world. In near death/ post-near death circumstances, he’s a little more feral. When he kisses you like that, it feels like it’s the end of the world and he’s trying to make the most of it.
L: Little ones (How are they around children)
Fushiguro isn’t good with kids that aren’t old enough to communicate. Older kids are fine with him, but guessing what a baby needs based on how loud it’s crying? Hard pass for him and he doesn’t even feel bad about it. The last time he had to watch a baby, he tried to leave one of his shikigami to watch it; long  story short, he had to explain to a cackling Gojo why his demon dogs wouldn’t let him leave to go to the bathroom.
M: Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Mornings with Fushiguro are pretty rare. Most of the time you guys don’t really get to sleep in or even spend mornings together since most of the time there’s missions or trainings you’ll have to go to. When you do get the rare morning off, Fushiguro makes the most of it. He sleeps in and doesn’t wake up before 10 no matter what you try. When he does finally wake up, he loves cooking breakfast with you, he’s not the best cook, but he treasures the experience over anything.
N: Night (How are nights spent with them?)
Nights with Megumi are also rare as most curses come out at night and that’s kinda your guys’ job. If all goes well though, you’ll both come back a little earlier and just go straight to sleep. If it’s a late night where the curse took more out of either of you than expected, yall usually stay up and talk and snack until one of you falls asleep or the sun comes up.
O: Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
It takes him an extremely long time to open up to you about his past. Not because he doesn’t trust you, but because he’s embarrassed and doesn’t want you to think less of him for it (especially during his problem child era). To be honest, you probably find out about certain things from other people. Once he’s cornered confronted, he’ll be completely (albeit a bit grudgingly) honest about it.
P: Patience (How easily angered are they?)
His anger is kind of weird, whereas before, he was a lot quicker to explode, bluntly telling off or even fighting whoever pissed him off, he’s changed. He tries his best to repress his emotions and as such, he comes off as patient, never expressing his true feelings/desires until pushed to the brink. 
Q: Quizzes (How much would they remember about you?  Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
He’s the king of remembering details you mention in passing. His love language is partially acts of service so for him, remembering details about you helps him later. Oh remember that one time you needed a pen/pencil but didn’t have one? Never again, this man has a section of his shadows dedicated solely to pencils because of you. Oh what’s that, you like this random song? Guess what just got added to the playlist he made for you. Basically, while he may not look like it, he’s actually a simp and so if he can make your life easier/ make you happy, it’s worth it.
R: Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
So Megumi is someone who doesn’t play video games but is really good at them for no reason. One day, you’re playing a game of smash bros. and he’s just kicking your ass, like it was sad. Needless to say, after his 4th win, he “accidently” pressed the wrong button and let you win. He thinks you don’t know he did this but when you won, you kissed him and completely flustered him, to the point that he couldn’t play for a solid 5 minutes. 
S: Security (How protective are they? How would they like to be protected?)
Despite knowing and trusting that you can defend yourself, he’s still super protective of you. You’re one of the few people that he cares about in the world and he’d give everything to see you safe and protected. As for how he’d like to be protected, knock some sense into him every once in a while. He has a habit of self sacrificing so if you want to protect him, remind him that you want to keep him alive as much as he wants to keep you alive.
T: Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
On the outside, his dates are very simple. They usually consist of you and him either staying in or just hanging out at stores and the like. Every once in a while, he’ll try to take you somewhere special, like a cove he found or a festival. For most people, these may be simple dates, but Fushiguro puts so much effort into so may aspects of your dates that honestly, anything bigger would lose the personal touch your dates have.
U: Ugly (What are some bad habits of theirs? (I’m gonna add arguments here because they aren’t on the prompt list I found))
One of his worst habits is his self-sacrificing tendencies. Even during a baseball game, he can’t help but sacrifice himself (especially if it means his friends/ you get to get the glory). With time though, he grows out of this and realizes it’s not selfish to want the best for yourself.
V: Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
He’s giving “I woke up like this” and it’s... it’s something. One might think the style is intentional since obviously, the look could only be achieved with gel, and to an extent, it is intentional. He might use gel to spike it a little more but the man legit rolls out of bed and chooses to leave his hair up like that.
W: Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
No, as much as he loves you, Fushiguro is an introvert. He needs time to just be by himself and unwind every once in a while, so he’s got no complaints if you leave him to his own devices or have to be gone for a long time.
X: (E)xes (Any previous relationship experience. How does that factor into your current relationship?)
Megumi has negative zero relationship experience. He’s never found someone that was worth the risk/ worth opening up to, hell, he just barely got friends when he entered high school. Because of this, every part of your relationship is like navigating uncharted waters.
Y: Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner)
He’s less someone to dislike a specific thing/ personality trait, and more someone who doesn’t like different people for different reasons, ex. Todo and Mai. If he had to pick a single trait, it’d probably have to be hypocriticism.
Z: Zzz (What is a sleep habit of theirs?)
He is someone who will fall asleep spread eagle one night and the next be huddled into a tiny little section of the bed. Mercy on you if you try to cuddle because now you’re wrapped up into his unconscious acrobatic routine.

Sterek Fic Recs Part 3
[You can find the first two lists here: Fluffy Sterek Recs & Sterek Fic Recs. Also here's a special fic, check it out]
First off, thank you all for a 100 followers!! As of September 7, 2021 you've made me feel really, really good about my obsession with two oblivious idiots (with sprinkles of the hale pack and other fandoms), and this is my way of thanking you ♥️
If you're on PC, you can see that there is a page dedicated solely to fic recs, which caters to other ships & fandoms too. So don't feel left out if you're looking for something other than Sterek!
Without further ado, let's get to it then!
an awful curse
Isaac is asleep in a chair. The angle of his neck makes Derek wince in sympathy.
"Isaac," Derek says.
Isaac snaps awake immediately.
"You're-"
"Where's Stiles?"
"Stiles?" Isaac asks.
Jesus. It's not like they know more than one.
AU - Canon Divergence | 6.3k | By blinkiesays
Throw Away The Key
Stiles knew it was stupid to go to the hunters’ headquarters all by himself, so when he finds himself caught, he can really only blame himself.
It shouldn't surprise Stiles when the situation quickly goes from bad to worse as the hunters throw him to a feral werewolf waiting to tear him apart.
Sucks that it's Derek, though.
AU - Canon Divergence | 5.9k | By mommymuffin
Whatever Happened Last Night, Why Did Glitter Have to Be Involved?
Derek rolled out of bed in search of his phone - quickly finding it in the pair of jeans that had evidently been tossed aside haphazardly on the way to the bed. Seeing the pants sparked flashes of memories - wolfsbane-laced alcohol, loud music, multicolored lights.
Peter’s new supernatural-friendly club - the pack had gone to the opening night party.
He unlocked his phone and opened the pack group chat, which Erica had affectionately named ‘Moon Sluts’.
>>Derek: What the fuck happened last night
[or: Derek wakes up with three things on his mind: he feels like he was punched by a troll, his mate is missing, and there's glitter covering his bed. Oh, and the pack group chat is mildly helpful]
**
Prompt #159 - “Also, my bed has glitter in it for reasons I do not recall.”
Crack Vibes | 1.2k | By ash_mcj
Good to Eat
So if Stiles married Derek Hale, he could become Jewish too? Perfect. It was settled. Stiles gleefully shoveled a forkful of cheesy shells into his mouth.
"Uh oh. I know that look.” Claudia shook her head.
"Don’t worry, Mom, ” Stiles said, reaching for his plastic Batman cup.
"I’ve got a plan.”
"Good luck, Derek Hale,” his mother muttered.
Rude.
AU - Childhood Friends | 1.7k | By Jmeelee
Murder Brows and Avoidance Tactics
Derek gets the wrong end of the stick.
Written for prompt: "You're jealous, aren't you?"
AU - Everybody Lives | 2k | By Dragonink13
Double Vision (only registered users can read this one)
"So what caused my hearing and sense of smell to dull?"
Deaton's brow furrowed, all amusement vanishing from his face. "What do you mean?"
Derek snapped, letting loose all of his anger and fear at the man before him. "I mean I can't hear your heartbeat or the cars down below or the birds in the attic! I can't smell the flowers in Mrs. Everett's apartment, I can't smell the rotting burger in the fridge that Isaac left in there a month ago, I can't smell or hear anything like I normally can!" Deaton mouth was pressed into a thin line. "Can you explain that?!"
 Tumblr Prompt: Derek jealous of himself.
AU - Everyone Lives | 6.1k | By Novkat21
Kiss?
Derek likes kissing Stiles, honestly he does. Until he doesn't.
Fluff | 3.6k | By clotpolesonly
Oblivious Misadventures, and Other Such Tales
Going to college was exciting and new, a chance for new friends and a fresh start, and the best part was, there was a supernatural fraternity on campus, meaning Scott finally had the freedom to be himself.
Then he met the resident human who came with a stalker alpha. What was the point of a supernatural fraternity if he still had to pretend to be human. And seriously, did Stiles ever fall asleep somewhere normal?
--
(aka - Five TImes Scott Found Derek and Stiles Sleeping, and the One Time He Didn't)
AU, Supernatural is real but not known by everyone, Alive Hale Family | 11.2k | By Little Spoon
Call Me (Cliché)
When the sheriff's sister ends up in a wheelchair for the duration of summer, Stiles' dreams of three months full of pack bonding, late-night video games and bro-time with Scott come crashing down. He's temporarily relocated to Redford, a three hour drive away, and he can already tell he won't be getting many visitors.
Sure the pack will forget about him while he's gone, Stiles is determined to make the most of his summer of isolation, training his body and mind - and his magic - so he can come back with a bang, and maybe catch a certain Sourwolf's eye.
Then Derek shows up at his window one night with a flimsy excuse about needing research done. Suddenly, his summer away is looking a whole lot more interesting.

What's a Secret Identity?
Stiles sipped at a mug of coffee, absently watching the news play in the break room. Because of course a news station couldn't play anything other than its own content, even in the one part of the office that was supposed to be a safe space from work. His interview with Superman was making a rerun and Stiles glanced at Derek before commenting absently, “I’d totally let Superman fuck me.”
Derek, who had been in the middle of a swig of coffee, choked violently, “That’s not something I needed to know at nine in the morning, Stiles.”
Stiles raised an eyebrow. “What time would you prefer I tell you about all of the things I would let Superman do to my body?”

But her big brother’s unwillingness to touch anyone, like he thinks he doesn’t deserve it isn’t the only thing she notices. She also notices how Stiles doesn’t touch him.
Everyone reaches for Derek in some form or another, but Stiles- Stiles is something different altogether because he reaches for Derek but he never makes contact.
He’ll be trying to shimmy past Derek and instead of putting a hand on his arm like most of them do, he’ll reach out with a hand and stop it scant centimeters away from Derek’s skin.
Or they’ll be walking alongside each other and Stiles will hover a hand on Derek’s lower back.
It’s both fascinating and tragic to watch, like NASA lost control of one of their robots and instead of it landing on the moon it’s fated to gravitate around it.

Déjà Vu
There’s a shop in Beacon Hills that no one knows anything about except that the mysterious proprietor, a witch in whispered circles, knows what you need before you do and that the things given are always just what you need.
Derek, lost after a breakup, heads into the shop to see if he can find something to help him forget his ex. The witch gives him a potion to drink, and when Derek wakes up, he finds he’s sixteen again and there’s a new student at his school, Stiles Stilinski.
Everything is familiar and yet not, and Derek finds he’s strangely drawn to Stiles in a way that is entirely supernatural.

Start Small, Like Oak Trees
The months following Allison's death have passed Stiles by in a haze of monotony. He sleepwalks through days that seem to lose their color, an unwilling passenger in a body he no longer trusts. Eventually, he thinks, he'll just fade away. He isn't sure anyone would notice. Then, during a spur of the moment grocery run, he stumbles upon Derek Hale attempting to console a lost child, and for the first time in recent memory the world doesn't seem so awful.
He's not sure what he'd been expecting when he eventually convinces Derek to move into the Stilinski's spare bedroom, but a newfound passion for weeding and topsoil certainly isn't it.

As it usually goes, Derek acts before he thinks. This time he has a good reason, though-it's all Stiles' fault. Mostly.
Or, that time when Derek volunteered to spend all his spare time as a wolf with the Beacon Hills Sheriff's Office K9 Unit, just to protect Stiles' dumb ass.

“Obviou—um, what? Derek?” Stiles managed. “What? You’re not colorblind. You’re colorblind?”
“Yes.” Derek said gruffly. “And?”
“And? What do you mean and? You can’t see colors?” Stiles demanded, thrown. “Does it—what kind is it? Red-green? Blue-yellow? Why doesn’t—oh my god, is this why your entire freaking wardrobe was completely black until like two years ago? Oh my god!”
“There’s nothing wrong with having a favorite color, Stiles.”

The pair of brothers spent the rest of the night in Mammon’s room. Around dinner time they were joined by the twins who had brought tonight’s dinner. They had decided to eat with their second eldest brother, having heard from Satan who had heard from Lucifer that Mammon had had a particularly rough day at school and figured sharing a hot meal together would be a good way to comfort him. Even Levi stopped by after they had finished eating, bringing plenty of games that he and Mammon enjoyed playing together -along with the appropriate console- after they had first fallen so Levi wouldn’t go feral from his self-isolation.
It felt like they were a proper family once more- light teasing and proper brotherly bickering occurring between the five of them, making sure to keep things at a level that was normal for siblings and a far cry from the vicious words they would throw Mammon’s way. They had all spent so long playing that eventually they had all fallen asleep together on or around Mammon’s couch with Belphie being the first to conk out for the night.
When they all awoke in the morning, Asmo told their brothers about the plan to help Mammon escape to the human world and about how they were going to be uncles.
“Let me go with you,” Beel responded eagerly, “If Lucifer finds out before you guys can get away, my strength will come in handy to buy you all a little time.”
“Beel, as much as I appreciate it, I can’t let you do that ta yourself.” Mammon says, a worried look in his blue and gold eyes. “Ya know what happens if ya stand against our brother’s authority. I mean look at what he did to Belphie when he went against Lucifer and Lord Diavolo over the exchange programme.”
“Yeah, locking me in the attic was a shitty move on his part but still, Lucifer is acting like a fucking tyrant.” Belphegor agreed. “I mean we’re all pretty scared of the monster he’s turning into, but what he’s doing to you is wrong. And we heard about the gaslighting incident at school yesterday. That was really fucked up- and you’re the favorite. Imagine what will happen to us after he finds out.”
The brothers all nodded at that.
“An’ that’s why I don’t want y’all doin’ it.” Mammon said sternly. “You two’re the youngest an’ while yer both strong in yer own right, the two of ya can’t hold a candle ta our brother.”
“What if Satan and I went along with you?” Levi asked, “Sure, Lucifer’s power output is over 9000 but Asmo, Satan, and I should be enough to at least match that for enough time for you and Solomon to get through the portal...”
“That would work.” Asmo nodded as they had a contemplative look on their face. “Actually, we’d stand a better chance if the twins go too.”
“You guys would really do this for me?” The Avatar of Greed looks around the room at all of his brothers before letting out a soft chuckle, “Guess Lucifer was right ‘bout one thing... you guys really do care.” He can’t help the tearful smile that creeps its way onto his features.
“Of course we do. We always did but we never showed it in the way we should have,” the fifth-born threw their arms around their older brother and was soon joined by their other brothers. “I mean we’re the ones who promised we’d change and we went back on that almost immediately.”
“We’re a family and you’re an important part of that too.” The Avatar of Envy says as they all press their foreheads together like they did back in the Celestial Realm before they went to war. “You keep things lively for us.”
“So it’s decided, right?” Beel asks, “We’re really going to do this? Together?”
“Together.” A sixth voice echoes from the upper level as the five of them pull away and turn their attention to Satan. He has a genuine smile on his face as he slides down on the railing of Mammon’s staircase like he used to do as a toddler. “Lucifer’s gone, by the way. Went up to the Demon Lord’s castle for a weekend meeting with Diavolo. If we’re going to make our move, it has to be tomorrow. So, everyone, get packed. I already booked four of us a hotel to stay at so Arella doesn’t have to put us up for however many months it is before the baby’s born. Asmo, you said you’d be staying with Solomon, right?”
“Right,” The Avatar of Lust nods. “Alright everyone, get ready.”
And just like that, the siblings dispersed to go about their packing.
-------------------------------------------------
Arella can’t wait. After hearing of the news from Solomon a few days ago, the excitement started to grow. What she didn’t know was if Mammon had found out if she was pregnant yet. What would his reaction be? Surprise? Excitement? Something else? Anxiety filled her as it had been doing over these past few months so she picks up her D.D.D. that no longer has service and opened up her photo gallery which also had little videos of her and Mammon together.
The sound of his voice is comforting to her. It makes things feel much less lonely in the silent house- even with Aubrie visiting- but it also has the added effect of helping their baby recognize his father’s voice. With the little one showing signs of being able to hear the outside world earlier than expected and hijacking her magic to protect them when he felt frightened, the last thing she needed was the sound of a voice he didn’t recognize setting off one of the many protective spells in her repertoire. His favourite thing to do was erect a magical barrier around them to keep a threat away. Thank heavens normal humans weren’t able to see things like that.
As she selected a video- one of all the brothers and her together at Diavolo’s birthday party last year- she set it on top of the small bump that she had started showing a couple weeks ago. She could feel her son’s powerful little kicks to the side of her womb.
“Easy now, little one. You’re going to cause bruising with kicks like that.” Arella says as she rubs a hand over the front of her belly and she feels a turning sensation shortly after. “You certainly are active this evening. Your Daddy’s coming back to us tomorrow, okay? And five of your uncles as well so don’t be scared when you hear their voices. They won’t hurt you or me. They may be demons but deep down they’re a good lot.”
As the video playing on the D.D.D ended, Arella picked up a children's book and began reading aloud to her unborn child.
“Rells, I’m going to go back to my hotel. Do you need anything before I go?” Aubrie asked as she leaned against the door frame. “I’ll be back tomorrow to help you out before the boys get here- tomorrow is the day, right?”
“I don’t need anything but yes, tomorrow’s the day.” Arella smiles.
“Oh, I bet you’re excited.” The ginger smiles. “Alright, I’ll get going. See you tomorrow.”
Arella only nodded as she watched Aubrie go.
-------------------------------------------------
The House of Lamentation held a slight air of chaos to it this morning due to the brothers running around for last minute packing. They barely had time for breakfast but since Mammon had the least number of items to pack, he was voted for breakfast duty while Satan covered dish duty. Today’s breakfast: Pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon. As everyone sat down to eat, there was constant chatter about things they would do while up in the mortal realm during the months they would be staying.
While they were cleaning up, Solomon made his appearance. Asmo welcomed him with a hug as they quickly pulled the sorcerer along to Mammon’s room to get him so they could go. They both watch as he doesn’t react to their entrance instead seeming lost in his thoughts as he runs his thumb over an old, worn piece of grimm. Not even calling his name was enough to pull him from his zoned-out state. It wasn’t until Solomon placed a careful hand on the second-born's shoulder that Mammon looked up at them.
“Are you ready to go?” Solomon asks with a smile.
“As ready as I’ll ever be,” The demon returns the smile, “Whenever everyone else is ready...”
Soon the rest of the brothers join them and it's time to go. Everyone grabs their bags or suitcases and load them up in the van that had been rented for them. Solomon was in charge of driving them to their destination.

Made for Team Rocket - Notes from the Author
Hello! It's me again!
My "Hello, Gorgeous" notes got some traction, so I decided to upload the "Made for Team Rocket" notes. These notes I use to propel the story and keep track.
We'll try to keep the list small and I may update more!
Amarillo "Yellow" : the protagonist and central main character.
- She is around seven years old.
- Yellow has long blonde hair that she puts up in a ponytail. When she was a feral child, she never washed her hair out so stones and sticks would be stuck in it.
- Yellow has no concept of the modern world. Things like alarm clocks, computers, automated voices, and cameras baffle her. While her stay at Rocket made her more accustomed, she still does not understand many things.
- She also does not know modern slang or lingo. Even some words escape her.
- Yellow is naturally curious, which often replaces her fear in situations. So she asks many questions, much to the chagrin of many people.
- Yellow is naturally rebellious as she never had a real "parental" authority figure. Mother Forest allowed her to roam and be free for the most part. So rules seem silly to her.
- Due to her living in the forest, Yellow was quite emaciated and thin by medical standards. She weighed less than a toddler and her bones were apparent. Her eyes appeared larger because of no fat in her face, making her appear "fairy-like" or "unnatural".
- There were legends about her from passing travelers, claiming they saw a "fairy" child or a "forest spirit". Due to her appearance, the rumors were fueled more and more.
- Yellow has the strongest Pokemon connection out of Giovanni and Lancelot. She can understand any Pokemon thought and has potential to outpace Giovanni.
- Yellow has the weakest Pokemon stats raise, followed by Lancelot and Giovanni.
- Yellow has the lowest command of Pokemon (level 45). Lancelot and Giovanni have higher commands.
- Yellow has the average healing power. Giovanni has the highest power (he's older) and Lancelot has the lowest. However, she is expected to outpace Giovanni.
- Yellow's "gifted" powers that are not given to Giovanni/Lancelot are full restore healing, foresight/future sight, and the ability to heal humans. (this may be added for more later).
- Yellow's favorite food are apples.
- Yellow's favorite friend at Team Rocket is Lancelot followed by Petrel.
- Yellow does not know who her parents are. Mother Forest has masqueraded as her mother since she was a baby.
- Yellow and Mother Forest are very close.
- Yellow's favorite Pokemon is Pikachu.
- She has a flaw of impatience as well as being unruly, flying into rages when she feels trapped. This is exacerbated when the "forest powers" consume her and controls her.
- Yellow does not read or write at her level.
Lancelot: secondary protagonist
- He is nine years old, about to turn ten.
- He was brought to Team Rocket as a baby, exactly six hours after he was born. He has never left this place and has never seen the outside world.
- He is the only forest child who has never heard Mother Forest's voice.
- Lancelot is very tall for his age. His eyes are gold and his hair is pinkish-red.
- Lancelot's hair gives Archer a headache. Archer cuts his hair and forces it to be "straight" because the hair is naturally spiky. Archer also has to cut it more frequently because it grows so fast.
- Lancelot has no idea of modern music. He is only allowed to listen to classical. He has never seen television, played video games, or read graphic novels. He has never even read a fictional novel.
- Lancelot is generally curious, but reserves it for finding information. He knows more information than most of Team Rocket.
- Lancelot has a special task by Archer where he reads Pokemon minds to determine if the trainer is a double agent or truly wanting to join. He earns the moniker "Ratcatcher".
- Lancelot was told that his mother died and he was rescued. Archer refuses to elaborate further.
- Lancelot has the weakest healing rate of the three (Giovanni and Yellow).
- Lancelot has average stat raise (Giovanni is ahead of him).
- Lancelot has the weakest Pokemon connection. However, this is due to psychological influence by Archer so it inhibits him.
- Lancelot has average command of Pokemon (up to level 60). However, it might be because he's commanding the wrong type of Pokemon.
- Lancelot's special powers that are not shared are total command and mastery of dragons/dragon-like Pokemon, inducing rage in all Pokemon, manipulation of dreams, and "warrior" spirit that creates bravery in all Pokemon regardless of circumstance. (might change later).
- Lancelot's favorite food is red meat, but he says it's fish so people don't get weirded out by him.
- Lancelot's favorite person in Team Rocket is Lixue and has a crush on her.
- Lancelot, much to his distaste, considers Yellow his only friend and he considers Petrel his favorite Executive.
- Lancelot does not believe in Mother Forest.
- Lancelot's flaw is that he is reckless and headstrong, something that Archer considers "disobedience". He also flies into violent rages when the "forest power" consumes him where he could level rooms.
- Lancelot's reading and writing is considered a high school level, but whether or not he simply regurgitates it or understands it is Archer's issue with it.
