if i had more time/energy/motivation i would write a fic that's UT Sans/Reader and seemingly very normal and slice of life
but you notice tiny little quirks and oddities around Sans and it's slowly revealed that it's actually Dust and he's taken this Sans' place to get close to you
#like it's played so straight that the readers of the fic don't even realise it's Dust either#like as you're reading it you can pick up on the lil foreshadowing bits with the reader character and put the pieces together but it-#wouldn't be SO obvious that you could figure it out immediately you know#reader character wouldn't know anything about the multiverse though so they'd just be noticing that his stories/alibis etc don't add up#and maybe he acts a lil weird sometimes around certain people#maybe he knows things he shouldn't#perhaps you get a visit from a 'coworker' of his that looks like his weird twin but /off/.....................#perhaps he lets slip some stuff that he shouldn't and now you're wondering if your Sans is actually Sans or an imposter............#but he /is/ Sans of course. just not the right one#maybe you start questioning when the switch happened. did you ever know Sans or was it always Dust? you start overanalysing all your dates#the months you've spent together#this idea is free btw if someone wants to yoink it please go ahead i do NOT have the time to dedicate to this except by maybe doodling

I fucked up, I know that, but, Jesus, can't a girl just do the best she can?
Previous / Next
Lilith: So he’s kept it all these years then. How sweet.
Helena: [panicking] Why are you awake?
Lilith: It’s nearly dusk. Time flies when you’re invading someone else’s privacy.
Helena: You should know, being the leading expert on the subject.
Lilith: [laughs] Touché, fledgling. Well, did you find it titillating?
Helena: You want to know if I was entertained? You almost killed your brother — just like you almost killed me!
Lilith: I wouldn’t say just like, though I’m not particularly proud of either.
Helena: I don’t think you meant to hurt Caleb. You were traumatized, and who could blame you? I’m sorry for everything you went through. To be brutalized like that, stripped of your agency, then transformed against your will into something monstrous — it's horrifying. But it also sounds awfully familiar. After all that, how can you justify the things you do — deceive, manipulate, attack, kill?
Lilith: The men I kill are pigs, Helena. You may not be able to hear them — yet — but their thoughts are nauseating. They’re exactly like the men who nearly killed me. I’m doing a service to women everywhere.
Helena: [scoffs] Oh, so murder is feminist now?
Lilith: Maybe it is! I’m hardly the first woman to do it, and it’s often with good reason.
Helena: Was what you did to me with good reason too?
Lilith: [guardedly, after some time] That was a mistake. I know you don’t believe me when I say I regret it, but it’s true. I shouldn’t have gone so far with you that night. I should have let Caleb take you home. I shouldn’t have invited you to the party. I should have left you alone altogether. I should have, I should have, I should have! But I didn’t, and what use is tormenting oneself with hypotheticals when it’s already done?
[softly] It’s absurd to say out loud, but something about you enraptured me, and it wasn’t only your blood. But I treated it like a game because that’s all I know how to do, and then I ruined it. I wish it had happened on your terms — the way it didn’t for me. I suppose I am just a monster after all. Again and again, I’ve failed to control my impulses — though I foolishly insist to myself that I can.
Helena: All this time, you’ve seemed so self-possessed. It’s hard to imagine you ever not being in control.
Lilith: I can be just as weak as anyone, Helena, as much as it pains me to admit.
Helena: Then you should understand why everything about this has been so hard for me. I’ve always needed logic and order, and now it feels like everything I’ve ever known has been thrown out the window. All that’s left is the thirst, and there’s nothing rational about it.
Lilith: I see now I’ve been pushing you too hard. But we can still start over at your pace, however that looks — if you’d like to, that is.
Helena: [cautiously] I guess it won’t hurt to try.
#ts4#sims 4#ts4 story#sims 4 story#story: hzid#helena zhao#lilith vatore#it's so confusing sometimes to be a girl 🤒#we all know lilith is always scheming but in that scheme some truth may bleed through#as much as she has seemingly handed herself over to her monstrousness feeling in control of when and how it shows up is important to her#she may kill at the bidding of her thirst but she's very calculating in the way she chooses her victims#but as much as she desires complete mastery she's never had it and maybe never will#(which is why she hates it when vlad harps on her lack of discipline#and envies caleb for the seeming ease of his restraint - even if she disagrees with how he uses it)#those moments where her control over a situation slips are her greatest embarrassments

Sad idea I thought of for EAPS
Eclipse walks into the security room: "Hey, Puppet, you wanna watch Death note or something?"
Charlie messing around on the computers watching Bluey: "What's Death note?"
Eclipse remembering his friend is dead and is never coming back, and the thing in front of him is essentially her corpse being possessed by a soul that's like her but not like a weird distorted mirror and realizing he's gonna be forced to stare at his dead friend's face everyday like she's still here:"... I.. it's just some show.. don't.. don't worry about it. I'll... come back, later."
Charlie: "Okay, bye, Eclipse."
Eclipse: "Bye... Charlie."
#tsams#tsams eclipse#eaps eclipse#eaps puppet#eaps charlie#eclipse and puppet show#goodbye puppet#😔#Eclipse is still trying to get use to Puppet not being there anymore#sometimes he slips up and forgets that's Charlie not Puppet#He misses his friend#we miss her too#r.i.p. Puppet#eaps fandom

talon hates pet names but he does secretly want one, honestly, to feel more like a part of the group. (i wanted to make a comic about this but it just read like more of the overdone writing i dislike). The issue is. Well he doesnt take well to compliments or praise in general, due to past negative experiences. Likes being called handsome in any context so it has to be used sparingly because it makes him puff up so cutely.
All of al's usual go to's are too cutesy for him which also bothers Talon greatly, so we have to think outside the box. Honestly being called a little tick would be the best one, fun and fitting but he actually also has negative experiences with that one specifically. Then it just gets into throwing anything out there territory, which is entertaining in itself. My little leech, viper, pesky little louse, mosquito, kissing bug (<- a good contender actually.) Bat is too obvious but maybe al would use it as a placeholder... It's best when they come up organically, but al's been feeling the pressure to cement a good one.
#talkys#like ive mentioned before al calls [smunker] bunny not because i‚ in my brain‚ said ''omg i want#my bf to call me that''.#no it was in his character beforehand that he sort of reserves ''honey bunny'' as a pet name for a partner#and then of course thats a mouthful so it just became bunny#its actually been hard for al to try to get one in organically because talon will bristle really easily at the wrong one#the tension was high when ''baby'' slipped out in reference to talon‚ for obvious reasons#and then even compliments as pet names dig at him too. he doesn't want to hear ''gorgeous'' again for a good while#but we've been thinking...#well there's kissing bugs and bat bugs. bed bugs. maybe he'll just be Bug lmao#''bed bug'' is actually right up al's alley but it cant be used as casually as like ''babe'' ykwim#''bed bug'' as an equivalent to ''honey bunny''. the full term only springs out sometimes#maybe talon WILL just be bug. the pesky pest#oc text#talon loves snakes but unfunnily enough i think a lot of snake ones would hurt him too#it would be fun to pull up a totonac word for it but i dont wanna be that guy‚ especially since words have different connotations#in different languages of course#long post

Marty McFly + parroting
#back to the future#bttf#marty mcfly#these are only some of them btw#he does it several other times#(most notably each scene where he wakes up in a different year/timeline. ''1955!'' ''27th floor!'' etc) i wanted to pick less obvious ones#i'd mentioned in an old post about this trait of Marty's that it's a neat way to keep viewers cued into important things#by having Marty repeat things that might otherwise slip by them#but from an in-universe perspective it's just. part of who Marty is.#he just repeats things#and the vast majority of these (including ones that aren't in this set) aren't even repeated as questions#like. there's no inflection of him saying it in a questioning way#he's really just saying things right back to people (& sometimes just to himself??)#the one at the dance is my fave

Currently playing the lt route (book 2) with Zuri, and she's trying so hard to be logical and practical when having to choose between Adam and Nate because doing it any other way makes her feel extremely guilty.
○
She goes to see the fortune teller with Adam, but he seems really off after being in there so she goes to the house of mirrors with Nate. But then that goes south quickly and he's gotta be out of it after having his past play out in front of him, so when the maalused break into her apartment she calls Adam.
○
But considering who these two are, Adam's reasons for being around her are going to sound more pratical than Nate's. So even though that's safer and the option she's more likely to go with (in these circumstances), she really wants people to want to be around her because they enjoy it, and Nate makes it obvious that that's the case for him.
Long story short, she's not having a good time lol. For a good while, the scale is not gonna be balanced. She'll spend more time with one than the other, then run to the other if she gets any sign that there's deeper feelings there. Until Farah makes it obvious that she knows what's up - then Zuri will balance out that scale in hopes of making it less obvious💀
#just a mess#there's no peace on this route at all😭#and this isn't even taking the book 3 conflict into account oh no bro#zuri already takes forever to get into a relationship with nate on his route lmao nothing is happening in this route#and if it does it'll be because of impulse more than anything#nate is offering her everything she wants on a silver platter and it scares her#she wants it so bad but it scares her - all of that just for existing?#when most of her life has told her that just...BEING isnt enough to be loved?#so she's waiting for the rose coloured glasses to come off#but with adam she feels like she has to work for the hints of affection he gives her - even though thats not actually the case#she knows his hesitance and... stoicness (?) in this situation is coming from fear and habit more than anything#but him denying and hiding his feelings allows her to fall into a back and forth thats more familar to her#its like...adam is already a stoic person and he's doing his damndest not to show his care for her#so when she says or does something that makes him slip up she loves it lol#she cherishes those little moments#but sometimes his avoidance stings a little too much and it feels easier to try and accept what nate wants to give her#and it feels good to let herself feel wanted - especially by someone as amazing as nate🥹#i'm gonna stop here lol this got way longer than i intended#tldr: adam makes her feel safe and nate makes her feel wanted - and she sucks at dealing with that#oc: zuri jackson

every now and then im reminded of hildas casual racism and how it goes so underlooked purely because in the biggest instance of it, its directed at cyril who most people dont like 😭 like isnt that crazy. i know ingrids the scapegoat racist (i have a lot of problems with her too esp with the language she uses but yk not the point of the post) but like she does acknowledge she is wrong. hilda does not do that… ever. what happens is that she praises cyril for being obedient and nice (in direct opposition to her stereotypes about almyrans which she does not clear up and also is a result of cyril being a child slave) like was that not kind of insane. i get shes like that because of how she was raised but when does she ever end up changing those prejudices… when does that happen…
#freudian slips#i dont hate hilda btw i think shes an interesting character and she has her moments#i LOVE her writing on crimson flower i think shes excellent there#but sometimes its just. baffling to see this glaring flaw of hers ignored and not criticized#in any other scenario she would probably be my favorite character#i love axe girls i love pink i love her bad attitude shes a great unit blah blah blah#but then its like. JUMPSCARE#and i know this fandom is so incredibly white so maybe thats why no one cares#but if youve ever been on the receiving end of any comment like that#its not fun! its not fun and its so insane to see her rewarded for that behavior#and then it got worse in hopes which was crazy 😭😭😭#like i actually enjoyed golden wildfire but she did not improve#also i do think a lot of the difference in hate between ingrid and hilda comes from people liking dedue and disliking cyril#which is fucked up bc why r u only critical of racism when it happens to someone you like#this is a real phenomenon!! it happens in real life all the time and its j#wow#anyways#everytime i play golden deer i have to grab petra#for claude’s sanity. he cannot be the only brown bitch in this house i’d snap

please. i need alastor with his hair up so we can see the side of his head. second set of ears or smooth flesh prairie?
#hazbin hotel#alastor#hazbin alastor#hazbin hotel alastor#alastor ears#alastor's flesh fields#bc husk has the ears on top as well#but his head is shaped like a cat and he has all the fur so it works#but alastor is mostly human shaped when he wants to be and his face head is distinctly skinful#so.#like imagine he's uncomfortable or embarrassed by it because it's *yet another* physical difference that#invites the taunts and abuse and humiliation he faced in life (and is thus very sensitive about in afterlife)#he already faces being a PREY animal of all things#so. imagine. he always ALWAYS makes sure his hair covers the side of his head. in his twisted victim mind the lack of ears makes him#Wrong and Disgusting and Untouchable and A Monster (and not in the satisfying fearful way he enjoys)#so he pushes it away. doesnt let anyone learn about his ugly disgusting mutation because surely SURELY if they saw it...#he could lose everything he's worked so hard for. because who would fear him? who would respect him? who would bother looking in his#direction? he would just be another lowlife Freak undeserving of love and attention and— well#thats what he would tell himself. but then one day niffty's doing his hair like he sometimes lets her#and he's just enjoying letting her have her fun. kinda spaced out; mostly just enjoyjng the rare sensation of a touch he doesn't despise#it doesnt even register when she pulls his hair up (maybe into lil space buns or smthn idk) that it leaves his empty face on display for all#i can imagine angel being the most outwardly shocked. some loud exclamation that turns everyones attention to alastor and his earless face#just. everyone staring at him. and he realises. and he hates himself for slipping like that and oh no theyre going to hate him and tell—#— everyone and he will lose all that hes been working towards with the hotel and he is just. So. mortified. think shameful reactions:#averted gaze; flushed cheeks; figeting under their stares; or perhaps the classic deer-in-headlights look as he freezes in shock#just as he feels everything crashing down around him. the others get ahold of themselves and share their reactions too#shock; confusion; endearment (charlie would 100% do a big AWW/want to touch it); reassurances galore when they see him retreat into his mind#they tell him it's normal (he's in hell; no longer a human but a demon; everyone looks odd by some standard)#they tell him it makes sense (he's a deer after all). they tell him his appearance is nothing to be ashamed of and that everyone is still#super intimidated and frightened by him ♡; that it doesnt change anything; that theyre sorry for whatever led him to believe otherwise

I know in any other context it would be a red-flag but I kinda love AZ being insane and having moments before they're actually together where he refers to Nerine as his wife 😭💔 I don't think he'd necessarily do it intentionally it's just that again. He's kinda crazy
#🗨️ snowbelle city gossip#eternalflowershipping#i like him slipping up when he speaks idk#the idea of his stammering or getting his words jumbled sometimes is cute :~)#its a fun contrast to his king image

s/o to that one ex-mutual who was notorious for only ever referring to byan as "he" and, not long after i made a gentle reminder post that byan exclusively uses they/them (bc misgendering was happening with some regularity back then from a variety of people), they wrote me a reply that used no pronouns in reference to byan, only names, nicknames, and descriptors. what the fuck was that, dude
#it's very rare that i feel like someone writing 'he' is anything more than a mistake#we all forget we all slip up we all sometimes type without thinking - it's chill. I never hold it against anyone#but this was so WEIRD. I had to go back & reread it bc I didn't even notice at first.#but yeah. there was not a single use of a pronoun for byan which would almost be impressive if it didn't feel so malicious#like just say you're transphobic at that point dude. don't try to HIDE it#honestly there were signs before that but I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. that was my first mistake lmao#━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ ooc ⋮ don't @ me.#transphobia cw

Today in my bio 2 recitation we were separated into different groups of climate activists/ companies (clean tech energy, climate hawks, etc) and had to try and “solve climate change” by picking a subject we’d like to work on, like increasing energy efficiency of vehicles or upping taxes on coal. Afterwards, we would each send one member to present on what we think would work in our best interest. There was… some good moments. To name a few:
World Government rep: (…) and politicians, those rat bastards,
Bio prof, leaning in to loudly whisper with a hand hiding his mouth: you’re a politician
WG rep: yes. as I was saying,
Bio prof: ,
Forestry rep: so we’re going to cut down on deforestation.
Bio prof: you mean… stop doing the thing that is your job?
Forestry rep: yes.
Bio prof: congrats! your class was the only one to lower the temperature difference this much as far as I’m aware. unfortunately, nearly all your plans are all completely unachievable or unprofitable,
TLDR; classroom politician roleplay ends in large amounts of self-sabotage among companies and self-loathing in their employees, professor prays none of us work for companies with any amount of political power
#there was a lot of other instances that slipped my mind#it’s been a hot minute since class#I love college though it’s so funny sometimes#None of us know what we’re doing#bless my profs soul for putting up with us. he got a doctorate for this shit#also!! if anyone is interested we used en-roads simulator for this activity#it’s real neat check it out#college#ecology#biology

Please link me if it's been done before, but thinking of this gifset and need a Gaz, uhhh, 'meet cute'.
He's got Kate's voice in his ear -'keep an eye on her. We lose her, we lose Makarov'- so he knows he's got to be a little standoffish when you shuffle over and ask for a light. You're so sweet about it, smile not dropping despite his brusque tone and dismissive, 'I'm all out, just leant my lighter to another bloke.'
He's a professional, and he's got a job to do. So he doesn't feel bad about brushing you off. Especially since he dropped a tracker into your bag just before you walked away. Once the mission's wrapped up, he'll find you and make it up to you~
#gaz won't fuck up the mission but damn he's also not going to let you slip away#man's organised - he's running a checklist on how to engineer a better meeting next time#idk i cant be bothered to write this but if anyone does - or if someone did this already - seriously do please link me 🙏#i read a lot of aus but sometimes i want to be the civilian-caught-in-the-mission idk dont judge 😂#báirseach rambles#gaz#kyle gaz garrick#kyle garrick/reader#kyle garrick x reader

moment of silence for my corvo/daud/thomas fic that I started writing on a business trip last spring where corvo and thomas start fucking because daud isn't interested in sex and encourages his boyfriend in pursuing thomas and then thomas caught feelings and everything fell apart
#li.txt#dh#I see this a lot in fics. and its always just a oneshot#and I wanted to explore the dynamics of thomas catching feelings and its a slow burn of angst#especially when thomas works very closely with corvo and sometimes he slips up and shares stuff that daud was keeping secret#50k slow burn hurt/comfort angst with happy ending kinda vibe

papa touya has glasses btw but he only wears them while he's reading in bed at night when he thinks you've already fallen asleep (you pretend like you don't know to spare his ego)
#sometimes he falls asleep with them on and you notice when you wake up before him in the early hours of the morning#and you just sort of giggle to yourself as you carefully slip them off his face and tuck them into the glasses case +#that he keeps hidden away at the back of his bedside table drawer#his eyesight is just as bad as fuyumi's but he went without glasses for so long that he actually made it worse#papa touya
