#how he keeps getting villains to go to his side or die (no in between)

[howtodrawyourdragon]

Thinking about how Calder went to extreme lengths to transform himself into a dragon (made armor based on it, tattood his literal entire body, kidnapped people just to have Hiccup and Toothless be his missing fire and wings) while Hiccup is seen as Other throughout the franchise without even trying.

Synopsis: You’re in the league of villains, and Aizawa manages to catch you! You’re in for it now.

An: Thank you for the request! Sorry it took me so long. NO proofreading 😔

"Did you really think you could outrun me?" Shouta's gravely voice sounded through the alleyway. Your body was currently trapped. He had you completely wrapped up with that damn scarf of his. No matter which way you thrashed, you couldn't get out.

"I was just hoping to outlast you!" You shout back, feigning confidence. In reality, your heart was pounding anxiously in your chest. You kept replaying the memory of you getting caught over and over in your head.

Shigaraki and the others just... left you completely behind. You were nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter. The slaughter just happened to be Shouta Aizawa, a notable underground pro who also teaches at U.A.. Just your luck.

His footsteps sounded through the alleyway. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. The small amount of light from the streetlamp allowed for you to admire his face from the ground. His longer dark hair was tied back into a short poofy ponytail, and his glasses must've gotten knocked off at some point during the pursuit.

His tired eyes wandered over your body as you laid helplessly at his feet. His irises were glowing red, effectively wiping you of your quirk. You looked too damn soft to be a villain, but he wasn't going to underestimate someone after seeing Toga.

"You got a name, princess?" He asked before nudging your side with his boot, making you squirm away from him.

"Why would I tell you that?" You immediately spat with a defiant pout.

"You got entirely too much mouth on ya." He retorts with a small smirk. Suddenly, your body is rapidly rolling around as the scarf unravels from your midsection. He's quick to grab each ends, and he yanks the rope taut, binding your wrists together above your head. "I'm tryin' to do you a favor, so don't push your luck."

Your body feels more free, even if you're basically just as trapped as before. Though, you're finally able to breathe freely now without the scarf restraining you tightly.

"Oh, and how should I say thank you?" You ask sarcastically, expecting for him to just get irritated with you again.

Aizawa takes a few more steps forward, and he crouches down to your level on the ground. Tilting his head to the side slightly, "I can think of a few ways, but I bet you wouldn't like those."

He's a flirt???

Your eyes immediately widen in response, and you can feel the heat rushing your cheeks. It's a pretty well known fact that Aizawa is a bit of a heartthrob, but he's too unapproachable to even consider. Shigaraki would kill you if he knew that you were considering sleeping with the enemy, but he basically left you to die. So, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

"Why are you so sure that I wouldn't?" You ask as you try to lean up against your restraints. He pulls them tighter, knocking you back against the concrete.

"A young pretty thing like you? You're just hoping to find an opening and get away." He muses as his eyes look your body up and down, shamelessly checking you out while you can't do a damn thing about it.

A small huff escapes your lips, causing him to chuckle endearingly. He finds your continued defiance to be rather amusing and cute.

"Then... don't give me an opening." You respond, giving him your most innocent smile that you could muster.

"Oh princess, are you asking me to keep you tied down..?"

You let out a shaky breath, and you reluctantly nod your head. Your thighs squish together tightly, trying to ease the warm ache that started to form between your legs.

"Ask nicely, and I'll consider it." He demands, keeping that cocky smirk on his face. The TV debuts never show this side of him. He's always portrayed as some strict stick in the mud, but right now, he was something completely different.

"Asshole-" You scoff before the scarf is yanked tightly, forcing your arms up higher. A pained whine sounds from your mouth, and you squeeze your eyes shut as he toys with you like prey.

"Now princess, I know you're a villain, but come on now... That's not very nice." He's being completely condescending, but for whatever reason, it makes your entrance clench around air, begging to be filled up by him.

"Please... keep me.. tied up-" You quietly ask, avoiding eye contact with him out of sheer embarrassment.

"You just want me to keep you tied up..? Nothing else-?" He prompts, and one of his fingers trails up your arm slowly, up towards the scarf wrapped tightly around your wrists.

"No- I.... ugh!" You exasperate in a bratty scoff. "I want you to keep me tied while.. you..." His finger slips beneath the binding, making sure he's not cutting off your circulation before he trails his finger back down your other arm.

"While I... what, princess? Spit it out. I'm on the clock, you know."

"... while you fuck me." You finally add, tilting your head away from his impregnable stare.

"Goood~" He purrs before tilting your chin back towards him. "Now, say it all together."

"That's not-" He gives you a challenging gaze, telling you that he's finished arguing. "I want you to keep me tied up while you fuck me..." His stare continues, waiting for you to tack on the 'nice' portion. "...Please."

"Was that so hard?" He asks as his hand dips between your thighs. His hand palmed at your wet cunt through the thin fabric of your pants.

"Mmn... no.." Your murmur softly. Your back arches up off the concrete, and your part your thighs slightly for him.

"Just like a damn cat. So mean and defensive until someone pets ya the right way." He muses before his fingers find the waistband of your pants. With a firm tug, you're left without pants or panties.

"Wait.. ngh... not in the alley-" Your whines fall on deaf ears as Shouta already has his head between your thighs, helping himself to your arousal.

His scruffy facial hair tickles your soft skin as he's gently kissing and biting on your thighs. Your body involuntarily squirms with each time he clamps his teeth over your flesh. "F-fuck.. ah.." It feels like heaven when his tongue finally reaches your core.

"Mmnn~ well, at least one part of ya is sweet." He muses with a grin before flattening his tongue out and lapping at your dripping cunt. His hands are tightly forcing your thighs apart, not allowing you to shy away from him at all. You could feel the imprints of his fingers being bruised into your legs. A mark of him to carry along with you.

Your hands tug against the restraints with a quiet whine as he plunges his tongue in and out of your tight entrance. It feels like he's a starved man, and you're his only source of substance to keep him alive. "F-fuuck~ Shouta.." You breathlessly whisper while your hips are subtly moving along with his tongue.

His hands slide up, and he gropes on the flesh of your ass, pulling you down harder onto his tongue. It forces him deeper into your arousal. You're practically dripping all over his nose and chin, and he lets out a grunt of approval.

"Thaaat's it, princess. Didn't think you'd be moaning a hero's name, now did ya?" He taunts as he sits up. His hands slide his belt off with ease, tossing it over to the side.

"Debatable.." You murmur lowly as your eyes fixate on his pants sliding down. He has a darkly colored happy trail that goes down to where his pubic hair. His cock is then unsheathed from his boxers.

"I see you still have that mouth on you. Guess I'm going to have to fuck it out of you." He shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly before he positions himself right between your thighs.

Your eyes are still glued on his length. He was big, but he was mostly girthy. His tip is swollen and red, with a line of pre-cum dripping down all from eating you out. His hand wraps around his fat length, and he fists at his length a few good times before guiding it towards your entrance.

"Wandering eyes..." He muses lowly, catching your attention. Your eyes meet his, and he gives you a small smile. "What were you looking at?"

"Uh... you.." You softly respond, feeling embarrassed that he caught you literally drooling over his cock.

"Yeah? What for?"

"I didn't know how it was gonna fit-" You start to say, but you were rudely cut off by him forcing his round tip past the ring of muscle. Your breath hitched in your throat, and you pulled harshly against the scarf.

He almost feels bad when he sees your cute face scrunched up in obvious discomfort. "You can handle it." He states bluntly before he eases his hips out, stretching the ring of muscle to fit around him. He then pushes right back in. Your wet heat coats him in a way that causes him to growl.

"Mmm.. if I didn't know any better, I'd say you're... hah.. enjoying this." He points out as his face hovers yours. His hands are planted against the ground at either side of you, holding him up above you. Your legs instinctively hike around his waist.

"Ngh..." You can't even find it in you to deny him right now. The stretch feels painful in the best way possible. You need him right now. "F-feels good~"

"Oh..? Want me to keep going then?" He asks, once again making you embarrassingly admit to wanting his cock.

"Yes... p-please Shouta.." You whine, wrapping your legs around him as if that'd stop him from leaving.

"Good girl. I'll reward you now." He praises before starting to move his hips. Your gummy walls squeeze around him, almost sucking him in with each thrust.

"Mmngh~ yes-!... right there, fuck." Your a noisy thing when you're getting dicked down, aren't you?

"Princess, don't make me gag you with my scarf." He mumbles in your ear lowly before letting out a low grown in tandem with his thrust. "G-gotta be quiet. Don't want the... mmph!... media coming out here, do you?"

You quickly shake your head no, and he gives you a small chuckle. He doesn't drill into you, instead he's slow and purposeful. He makes each thrust count as he slams into your sweet spot at a perfect tempo.

He presses small kisses along your cheek and jaw. "Bein' such a good girl for me.." He praises lowly as one of his hands snake down and starts to rub small circles on your clit.

"Hah~" You gasp as you tilt your head back. You can feel the white hot pleasure start to coil in your stomach, and your heart starts to pound in your chest. "G-gonna... gonna come.." You warn quietly as your eyes squint shut.

"Yeeaahh, that's it.... come on my cock , 's okay." He gives you permission, and immediately, he can feel you spasming around him. "Fuuck, good girl. Did so good..." He praises, and he keeps up his punishing rhythm.

"Sh-... Shouta~" You whine as you look back up at him. Your poor cute face is all fucked out. He knows your arms have to be sore from being kept above your head this entire time.

"What is it, princess?" He asks you knowingly. He already knows what you're wanting of him, but he's a fan of making you say it.

"P-please.. come inside me.."

"I've given you s'much already, and you want more? He taunts as his cock continues to fill you completely. His tip kissing your womb sloppily as he's just leaking pre-cum into you. Sopping wet noises fill the alley every time he moves. So much for being discreet.

"M-more!" You mindlessly whine in agreement. How could he deny you when you're so cute and stupid? His jaw tightens, and he begins to absolutely bully his way inside you, chasing after his own orgasm simply because you asked him so nicely.

His knees scraped against the pavement beneath your two, and his grunts were becoming more growl like and shaky. "You want more? C'mere." He demands lowly before unbinding your hands. He scoops you into his arms, and pulls you up and down along his length, practically using you as his own little toy.

Your arms immediately wrap around his neck, and you hold on for dear life as he literally knocks the breath out of you with each brutal thrust. Your mind is practically spinning, and before you know it, you're gushing around him once again.

"You just can't help yourself, can you?" He taunts before he bites down onto your shoulder. His heavy balls are slapping against the flesh of your ass with each delicious plap noise. "Fuck. Gonna fill my good girl up." He groans lowly as his arms begin to shake.

His cock flexes with each pump of cum he spurts into you. For a moment, everything is quiet. The sound of both of you trying to catch your breaths fill the air before he presses a chaste kiss to your cheek.

"You don't gotta tell me your name... Do you have somewhere safe to go tonight... away from those assholes?" He asks you quietly before he gently lays you back against the concrete. His cock slides out of you, unleashing a pool of mixed fluids down your ass.

"I... not really..." You answer hesitantly. You didn't exactly have a place to call home except for the league of villains' base. It's not like you expected them to practically sacrifice you.

"You'll sleep at mine tonight." He leaves no room for argument as he gets himself back dressed. He even starts to put your pants back onto your legs for you. "If you try anything, I'll tie you up and do this to you all over again."

You let out a small amused laugh. "Don't threaten me with a good time, eraser."

FAMILY MAN [O!Bakugo Katsuki x A!Male Reader] PT.2

You laid on Bakugo’s pillow, one arm pinned under your head while the other played in the blondes’ hair. The man was lying on your chest, in the glow of his preheat. He had invited you to his room after classes, just to allow you to scent everything he needed you to in his nest. Nothing sensual had happened yet, during your research you had learned that all an omega really needs before their heat is the scent and attention of their alpha. Their alpha…were you Bakugo’s alpha? He had never asked, you had never asked for him to be your omega either though. It was unspoken arrangement between the two of you that you would only go to each other for things like this. He had never smelt the lingering scent of another omega on you, and your interaction with omega classmates were limited, always holding yourself three steps away from them.

You enjoyed basking in his scent, it was smoky and woody. Like sitting by a campfire on a snowy night. You could drown yourself in it. Times like these were nice, when Bakugo wasn’t his usually angry self, when he wasn’t yelling at you, or pulling your hair and calling you an idiot. You lived for the few times when he acted like a domesticated cat. It’s almost as if he enjoyed your company as much as you enjoyed his. You truly did love him. 17 and in love, how stupid of you. But with him in your arms clutching you like a lifeline, how could you have not fallen in love with him?

You stared at Bakugo dumbfounded, his push away from your embrace wasn’t as successful as he had hoped, your hands still had death grips on his upper arms. His glare remained on you though, unwavering as you slowly pulled in closer to him, looking in his eyes.

“Why the fuck are you in Japan?” He asked, pulling his face away from your curious gaze. Despite the grip you had on him, your hands were still comforting, and safe. Not letting him go. But he needed to leave, he couldn’t deal with this shit right now, there was still a villain on the loose.

“Kat, what are you talking about?” You asked slowly. Your hands left his arms and snaked up his shoulder and face, something you used to do to him all the time when it was just the two of you. He would have never let you show him affection like this in public when you were teenagers. Old habits die hard because the moment your fingers intertwine in the hair he’s pulling himself off the other side of the bed to put some distance between you. Something in your eyes flickers that he’s all too familiar with; disappointment.

You always had that look on your face in high school. When he didn’t scent things for you, or didn’t acknowledge you outside of class, or told you when he didn’t love you. The last one was probably what he was most ashamed of. You loved him, despite how badly he treated you. How little did you think of yourself to let him walk all over you like that?

Years of just hit after hit from him and you always came back when he called. Until you didn’t.

“Did you get tired of dicking around in America? Does anyone even know you’re back? That you’re married?” It figures that he wouldn’t even be on the list of people you’d tell, it’s not like you have given him any life updates since you left. But he would have a least heard about it from Shitty Hair or Pinky, hell even fucking Deku would have had something to say about you returning. He can’t keep secrets for shit. He had told Bakugo a while Hatsume has been trying to recruit you for years to come back and work with her on support gear. All of her efforts had been unsuccessful though, apparently you enjoyed your job in America.

You had your own little life out there. One that he knew nothing about.

Your disappointment turned into a little pout, and you tilted your head in that cute fucking way you always do when you’re thinking. You share a look with the medical staff, who is all still crouched in the corner of the room and watching the two of you. One of the doctors you make eye contact with is finally man enough to stand up and approach Bakugo.

“Mr. (L/N), we think that there may be some trauma do your head after the attack, if you could let us run some neurological assessments and a MRI we can get a better idea of what we are working with.”

“I DIDN’T HIT MY FUCKING HEAD!” He yelled, the doctor was quick to back away from his outburst. You were quick to jump into action, directly all his attention back to you.

“Kat, it’s okay, it’s just routine.” You lied like he wouldn’t know. Like Bakugo hasn’t landed himself in the hospital a dozen times and already knows a routine assessment. You sounded defeated though, like you didn’t want to fight but weren’t going to back down. You would drag him kicking and screaming to the MRI if you had to. “I know you’re upset but Deku got the villain after he knocked you out, okay. Let’s just get all these tests over with and I will take us home.”

The distance Bakugo put between you didn’t seem to detour your calming scent, but you made no move closer to him out of respect. He was mad, and you’ve seen him made enough times to know to give him the space he needs. Bakugo is just staring at you, a mixture of emotions that he wouldn’t appreciate you deciphering in front of all these strangers. Because what the fuck did you mean “take us home”? To your home? To his? And Deku wasn’t even near the fight when it happened, how the hell did he swoop in and save the day? You nod silently the way to the door for the doctors so the two of you can be alone. They take the hint.

You sit down in the hospital bed, watching as Katsuki paces around in his anger. After what feels like forever he looks at you, only you. And you swear you can see a glimmer of water in the corners of his eyes.

In a flash, the omega is back in your arms, face burrowed in your neck as you run your fingers through your hair again. “Why are you here?” He whispered, and the sound of his voice is enough to break your heart and two. Because neither of you had an actual clue what was going on in each other’s heads. You wanted to ask him what he meant, because he saw you this morning before work. He lifts his bed from your shoulder to meet your gaze. Katsuki Bakugo, number one hero, was sitting in your lap on the brink of tears because a low level villain caught him off guard? No, no something else was going on. You could tell, he was confused and scared and angry all at once. You cup his face and pull him close.

“My Husband is in the hospital.” you laughed, “Where else in the world would I be?” You gave him a small kiss on the lips, pulling away all too soon. Bakugo’s hands find your wrists and put them in a death grip, preventing you from moving away. The kiss he gives you is more passionate, like he thinks it is the last one he will be able to give you in a while. You make a surprised noise until you melt into it. He’s rubbing his scent all over you as if you weren’t already drenched in it.

Him? Your husband?

A/N: That’s so lame of me not to update in months and I want you all to know I’m as disappointed in myself as you are.

BLUE LOCK MANGA SPOILERS BELOW:

I am NOT a theory blog, but I am a literature fanatic, so I REALLY want to talk about the Nagi thing and what I think the options are from here. You can debate me in the comments, but please do remain respectful and hear me out for a minute, lol

Idk, I may release a separate account for things like these, so my literature work will not get buried, but idrk.

Okay so, this plot of Nagi being eliminated is something I PREFER AND LOVE better than the other two controversies (the Rinsagi and Barou Shidou one), I am not against these other two but I was a bit confused for a second. But the Nagi one was something surprising yet not at the same time.

Death is foreshadowed for Nagi. And by death means a metaphorical one. Something the other Blue Lock players went through. This is my analysis of the whole Blue Lock evolution.

In order to evolve, one has to die. It has been a theme I have been noticing ever since the beginning of the story. And the thing that sealed it in for me is what Barou said to Nagi after the match between Ubers and Manshine:

Let me list out the major characters that I remember having have to go through this death, forgive me if some of them are a bit bleary because I cannot really decide which one is which.

1. Bachira

Bachira had this happen to him in the 4 vs. 4 in the second selection. In fact, the parallels between him and Nagi in the NEL are almost laughable. Bachira was wondering if his head was filled with thoughts and doubts if he should pass or not. What should he do?

In fact, due to his back story, we know that, like Nagi, Bachira did not want to be alone forever. That is the reason he even attached himself to Isagi because he feels that Isagi is that person he has been waiting for, the one he wanted to play football with.

However, unlike Nagi, Bachira did not pass. Even if he did not score, he made a conviction, a decision that he does not need a monster in order to succeed. He managed to evolve himself into another level, to get rid of the monster (or rather keep it locked in ig because it does come back in the NEL?)

He stopped leaning into his monster to make the beautiful plays he imagined (like how he will pass the ball to his monster when he was a child, that his coach before even chided him for making weird passes), but instead makes those plays himself.

(I will come back to Bachira later)

2. Barou

The 3 vs. 3 in the second selection is very obvious (I won't explain this because it's kind of self-explanatory) and here, he evolved too. He managed to find a new way to fight in Blue Lock. By devouring the light and becoming some sort of the Villain King in order to dominate the field.

It is still connected to his original ego to drag off anyone off the main actor seat, but it is a refined technique and thinking.

3. Chigiri

Now for Chigiri, I personally think that his death happened before Blue Lock. When he had his injury, I think that is where his metaphorical death happened. And unlike the aforementioned players, his death was a little longer as he just managed to rise from the ashes when he entered Blue Lock.

His newer outlook about not caring about being a genius and instead having to run past someone being the only thing he cares about elevated his original ego and made him evolve.

4. Rin

For Rin, I personally think that it's more on the U20 match rather than the snowy night he had the fight with Sae. Since the despair of having so many people by his side made him recoil in disgust.

Due to the realization of this, as well as his realization that he is not just Itoshi Sae's brother but instead, he is the egoist, Itoshi Rin made him stop incorporating his brother's play in his own and instead went with his original ego.

Now, these are only a few examples, and there are some characters who have more than just one death. Isagi literally has to 'die or kill' his current self everytime he incorporates a new skill to adapt (him being literally broken apart with the puzzle pieces)

According to Oxford Dictionary, death is not just the end of the life of a person or organism. It is also the destruction or end of something.

The end of a disillusioned thinking they, as well as their environement buried in their head into a better philosophy that hones their original ego. (I wanna make a post about the effect of the teachings of the past teachers and environment of the Blue Lockers into their egos being buried, turning their philosophy disillusioned and even self-destructive)

But anyway, moving on to Nagi. Out of the major characters, he is the one who has yet to 'die.' And I personally think this elimination would help him evolve his ego.

But wait...what even is his ego?

That is the thing, I don't know if he even has one (forgive me I have yet to read EpiNagi, but I will maybe I'll find something)

But in the main storyline, he doesn't have one. For me, one's ego literally means their original state. It is your nature, the thing you yearn for in your rawest form. Without anything holding you back, no ethics, no pressure, what is it you desire? What is it you hunger?

Whatever your answer is, that is your ego. It's something unique to only you, and even though to satisfy that hunger, you may conclude to a dream that can intersect with other people (like how every blue locker wants to be the best in the world) but your reasons and ways to achieve it are different.

Now, to Nagi. Sure, he has it. The talent, the way to achieve that goal (which we dont even get a confirmation that he wants), but what is his reason? For Reo?

I dont think the answer is Reo. As shown in the flashbacks, your ego is something developed within you when you are younger even. Since well, it is your nature, the thing you yearn for without any of the shackles and experience you go through in life.

As we see, ones ego is NEVER dependent on someone else. Everyone of us is different, therefore to achieve what you yearn for, you have to do it alone in order to fulfill that hunger within you. After all, who knows your hunger better than yourself?

Not wanting alone, maybe? It is debatable. It reminds me of Kaiser's yearning for love, to be human. And Nagi not wanting alone can become a good ego, but does that not sound counterintuitive with what ego is?

Your ego should not be dependent on someone as mentioned. But I can see it go two ways.

1. Nagi has a deeper ego. One that we maybe able to see if we have a backstory of him way before he met Reo as a child (kinda like how Rin had two backstories)

This can follow the same formula as the other major characters, where he will thrive as someone alone. And well, it would put the spin off manga good use lol

Or

2. Nagi's ego IS not wanting to be alone.

For the second option, it may explain the reason why of all characters, Nagi has a spin-off manga. His ego is DIFFERENT from what the other characters have. Where others' ego can stand alone, but Nagi's cant, and he needs someone.

The literal OPPOSITE of how ego is in the original series. Isagi is the mc of the og manga, he is someone who follows the blueprint of Ego's philosophy to a tee. Heck, we can even see that Ego may or may not have some bias for Isagi.

Why would he not? Isagi is literally the player that embodies his philosophy and keeps applying it. Heck they even synchronise in thoughts lol.

Meanwhile, in the movie, Ego didnt seem to like Nagi. The person who is literally the OPPOSITE on what he wanted to achieve. So you cant blame him.

So wouldn't it be interesting if the spin-off and the og manga went the complete opposite of each other? Nagi is the one to follow the plots a lot of sports manga follow. The one who can not win alone, or rather his ego, is dependent on someone.

While Isagi, follows the Blue Lock philosophy. Heck, it would even be funny to see that Ego taught Kunigami to distance himself from the teachings of Blue Lock in order to be the copy of Noa. To get rid of everything, to instill a different philosophy.

To which Kunigami failed (Isagi mentioned this, that even if Kunigami tries to act like a heartless robot, deep down he is still that emotional, good guy with a hero complex and is even the reason why he used this to make Kuni pass to him), but the person that got eliminated is the one who ended up succeeding in something Kunigami failed at.

It can also mirror between Kuni and Nagi being the two major characters that ended up eliminated, but the first one did not succeed in changing his philosophy but the other one did.

Okay, switch topic, about what I think is a theory as to what Nagi's backstory is if my theory is correct and how this connects to Bachira. There is one reason in my mind:

Bachira has a loving mom.

I know simple lmao. But lets get deeper in that.

We know that Nagi's parents practice the 'hands off' parental approach (idk I just call it abandonment), meaning he is always alone in his life. We can have a legit backstory of him as a kid being alone always as well. Because in my read of the situation, this is how he has been raised (if you can even call it that) even as a child.

Meanwhile, Bachira has a loving mom. One that actually affirms his son's feelings. And though he feels lonely when he plays football, he has someone who pays attention to him and loves him, making it easier for child Bachira to yearn for something else other than a companion.

But Nagi does NOT have that. How can he think of anything else when the loneliness glares at him so hard? It even looked like he did not have friends before Reo, meaning he was ISOLATED.

Heck, to prove this, he even has Choki. A freaking cactus just to be able to talk to someone or something. It has been glaring us that Nagi is LONELY. He is isolated. For me, this is a different lonely.

A lonely that is so cold, like in the middle of a dessert wasteland at night with no one to offer anything to him. That's why he yearns to not be lonely. Now, you guys might be saying "isnt it a little close to Kaiser's ego? To receive love?"

My answer is no. Kaiser wishes to improve himself to stop being sub human and become human to become someone worthy of love. Nagi does not have that thinking. He wants someone to be with him, someone who would fill that loneliness.

To deepen this even more, Nagi's loneliness may also be the reason why he is so naive and a bit shallow at times. Like when he asked Isagi why he tried so hard? A question that formed because he is a shallow thinker.

Why wouldn't he be a shallow thinker anyway? He is a genius, a genius that gets everything without trying. Losing the sight of the journey, because he has no journey.

Along with this, no one is there to even teach him any of these stuff. Hes kinda like Rapunzel from Tangled, but without the manipulation and forced isolation.

Also funny, he was compared to a baby chick, when baby chicks are very, very reliant on their mother. To those around them, but Nagi does not have anyone to rely to. To ask his questions to.

Well, until Reo appeared.

That is why when Reo befriended him, it was so important to Nagi even if he isnt showy about it. Whenever he tries to improve, he would always mention Reo's name. About how he is so excited to show it to Reo and everything.

Nagi thinks that if he plays for Reo, he won't be lonely. I know we joke in the fandom about how Reo is so obsessed with Nagi, but I'd argue Nagi is as obsessed with Reo.

It was the first time he had someone pay attention to him. At first, he looked quite apprehensive about it, and a little bit not okay with it since he is still lazy and Reo wants him to play. But, after a while, Reo grew on him, enough that he even started to play even if he complained.

It's a slow build imo. But it is there.

But this yearning for connection can be explored more than just with Reo. He asks questions to different people, Isagi, Rin, Barou, etc. About why they work hard. Why do they even try? And all those questions.

Nagi yearns for connections, especially when Reo does not give him the right answers. Does that mean he is betraying Reo? Nope. In his mind, he is doing this to become stronger for who? For Reo.

Heck, the author can even set Nagi up as a final rival of Isagi for this. Where two different ideologies clash. The two different philosophies of the spin off and the main manga would clash and where a winner will be declared for the final selection.

It is the philosophy of an individualistic egotism vs. the philosophy of collective Egotism. Both are egos but are different at the same time.

Anyways, I hope Kaneshiro continues Nagi's story because he is a really interesting and mysterious character. It would be sad to see such a huge potential both in talent and story wise go away like that.

But I have trust. While rereading some chapters for this, I recognized how good of a writer Kaneshiro is and how the metaphorical death of the players all mirror each other in some way which makes me feel like he is some sort of mastermind.

I know this theory has some holes. Things like, Bachira's words to Nagi when he hesitated to score and relied on Reo. And the negative connotations of his fear of being alone, because with how it is framed, his fear of being alone is negative.

But like I said. This is a THEORY. Feel free to argue with me in the comments! I want to have debates because I am SO BORED, and I wanna talk Blue Lock.

The only thing I dont wanna talk about is how Kaneshiro made a mistake by eliminating with Nagi because I think he made the right choice by doing this (unless he brings Nagi back with that voting system thing which idk how i'll react lol)

Sorry if some of these are scattered because I LITERALLY just typed everything in my head without having to write it down lol. I might repost this with a cleaner format. But for now, just enjoy my yapping😔

Anyways, shoutout to a channel in Youtube named Suzels. Please search his videos since he is like one of the saving graces of the Blue Lock fandom when it comes to literary comprehension lol. This theory is inspired by his video about Nagi.

Hi I just found your blog and omg love your writing!! 10/10!! Would it be ok if I hear your thoughts or hcs on Mark but how do you think he would treat his darling if there were different species ? (Like human , mega human or an alien ?) (I’m fine with female or gn reader ^^) please 🙏

A/n: Aww thanks I appreciate reading that!! ╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯

In my very professional and correct opinion - I really don’t think Mark gives a fuck if that makes sense. Like if he’s interested in you and you got a solid personality man is willing to be your #1 cheerleader. Human or not man is just happy to be there, if anything he would be mad curious wanting to know every detail about you. Which can be good for late night talks lol

So have my headcannons!!

Mark x Alien!Reader

- “Wait is that like regular you, or your costume?” He apologizes every time he remembers his first words to you when he thought he was fighting a villain recognizing how he might need to check his words from now on.

- “You didn’t know Mark it’s fine.” Even after all the apologies he always takes you out for a sweet treat every time he remembers wanting to see a smile on your face, and not hate him for his words. (Which you can never do)

- If you ever want to win an argument you always pull that card, effectively making him shut up and get on his knees to apologize.

- Without you knowing he has made a list of all your little quirks in his note apps, never wanting to forget something that can make you feel out of place with your time on Earth.

- He was always so curious where you came from, as he admired the gold lines streaking your body, it was a delicate set of patterns that glow when you’re feeling too much of one emotion. And the singular twirly antenna sprout you have on the top of your head made it hard for him to not fall for you, weirdly so. All of this effectively made you stick out when you’re walking down the streets as you’re usually beaming, a walking star practically.

-It hurts his eyes, like really bad (he’ll never tell you this) so by the end of the day he’s squinting at his mom trying to recall the moments he had good vision

- Everytime people give him the solution of sunglasses he shoots it down, wanting to embrace every part of you… even if it blinds him

- You forced him to wear sunglasses ever since you saw his trash piled with eye drops

- “How do you not find them cute?” He asked shocked, looking up at you with a scooped up kitten in his arms. “These ‘things’ are demons on my planet practically.” You say bluntly, shivering at the cat-infested home you remembered you left. Misinterpreting your words as 100% truth; whenever there’s a cat nearby he scoops you up with so much panic you always assume you’re being under attacked. But in fact it was just him throwing you over his shoulder and hauling ass away from the cat.

- He likes feeling the difference between your skin, and the gold plates practically etched onto your body feeling the difference in texture. He likes hearing the noise when he taps on it hearing a clank every time making him chuckle.

-If we’re being honest he can keep himself entertained for a good hour just doing that with every part of your body.

-He still loves and cherishes it didn’t matter what you are. He loves the crinkle your eyes do whenever you smile, the way you wear your emotions free for everyone to see never ashamed of who you were.

- You being so in tune with your emotions, you always help him understand his own considering everything he goes through, glad you’re by him through it all.

- It was a burning question every time he sees your antenna bouncing around. He needs to ask. But would he offend? He doesn’t want to. But the curiosity is killing him.

- It took him a year to ask you.

- “If like…… someone cuts your antenna do you die?”

- You couldn’t help but give him massive side-eye as you try to see if he’s holding an unknown pair of scissors. It doesn’t go unnoticed by him.

- “It’s not like I was going to cut it!”

- “You said it so suspiciously can you blame me!”

- You don’t die if it’s cut. (Much to your own relief whenever you see Mark holding scissors)

- He’s glad that you never joined the hero scene much to Cecil’s dismay considering he knows what’s going to happen if you do.

-Everyone is going to love you, see how beautiful you are, fall in love and there’s never going to be enough time to be one another, and you’ll leave him to rot. And he really wouldn’t want to resort to locking you in his closet so he’s grateful you’re all his.

-That’s what he says atleast as you gave him an unimpressed look at his dramatics.

- “That wouldn’t happen.”

- “You don’t know that.”

- He adores and practically kisses the floor you walk on, never feeling luckier to be called your boyfriend.

- If you get Mark to love you human or not he would do anything in his power to make you the happiest person in the planet.

They left so many questions unanswered in this phase:

How will Merlin purify the Essail? Are they stronger than a god and can fight against their will?

I thought the dragon has the power to lift curses but it just soared around and left? So all the dragon did was spare the people of Essail?

What is the Sylvan Tendril?

Wtf did the Essail do to be cursed so by Misarte? Were the Essail a sub-tribe among the Wilders? Did they all act in unison or was it just the queen who fucked up?

Why did she kill Tasso?

What's the power dynamic between primordial dragons and gods?

Why did Helthor make such horrible decisions? What is this un-god-like behaviour?

If Helthor is a scum, should we question all the gods in Esperia?

What's the deal with Ravion? He's just playing a completely different game.

What does "Immaculate One" even mean? Strong Mages/Priests (Velara/Cyran,etc) tend to be villains in the story. Is it a side effect of using magic? Is Merlin the only one who's able to not get affected by power? Is that why he lost his memory?

Did Velara really die? I don't trust any off-screen deaths tbh. Also Thador just left??

Are the Essail vegan/vegetarian? Because if not, why is it cruel to eat dragon eggs but fine to eat meat/other creatures' eggs? A life is a life, afterall.

Where is the Adamant Syndicate?

Zanie just gave up on a quest shes's been on for a century or something? For some reason, it's hard to believe that someone as relentless as her (and the dwarfs) would just let go of her desire for magic.

Why does Merlin ask for money for their services when they are going to do it for free anyway? All their "friends" are poor, no one ever pays them and they have to keep killing minor villainous pedestrians to loot their publically available treasure chests.

EDIT- SOME OF THESE WERE ANSWERED IN THE SIDE QUEST: BURDEN OF THE CROWN.

No Mister Slab, I Expect You(r Keyboard) To Die!

Inspired by THIS tumblr post!

Etho woke up staring at his lap.

He blinked a few times, and lifted his head. Something was bound tight around his wrists, and the chair he’d been tied to was kind of painful.

He blinked, uncomprehending, as he stared into the massive eyes and smug smile of Keralis.

Etho opened his mouth.

And closed it.

Keralis was sitting in a high-backed spiky-looking chair, like something out of a movie. And of course, he was wearing a white suit with a blue flower for a corsage. For some reason, Jellie was sprawled contentedly across his lap. As if that wasn’t enough, behind him, a wall of lava was flowing down. Etho looked around the rest of the (modern and tasteful, natch) room, to see it dominated by suits of armour and other lovely decorations.  

Keralis’ massive desk sat between them, with a shiny new gaming PC and all the trimmings off to the side. Keralis gently stroked Jellie, and locked eyes with Etho.

“Ah, Etho! You’re awake!” he said brightly, and his left eye twitched.

“…Keralis? You okay, buddy? Something wrong?”

Etho would be lying if he said he wasn’t slightly nervous.

“Hm? No, no, no. I’m fine. I’m very, very fine.” Keralis leaned in, grinning nastily.

“So…uh…why am I tied to a chair?” Etho asked, tilting his head, “’Cause, like, I was kind of sending some e-mails to Pause when Doc dropped that bag over my head, and-“

Keralis’ eye twitched.

“I suppose we don’t waste time, then. Etho!” Keralis said grandly, steepling his fingers together on the desk, “I am replacing your entire setup.”

Etho froze.

“NO-!“

“OH, YES!” Keralis cackled, “YES, ETHO, YES! A NEW KEYBOARD! A NEW MOUSE! NEW MONITORS! A NEW MIC STAND!”

“…Actually, can I keep my old monitor, I only had, like, the one-“

Keralis’ eye twitched.

“You get two monitors now,” he said grandly, scratching Jellie behind the ears. She hissed and hopped off Keralis’ lap, wandering away.

“YOU CAN’T DO THIS!” Etho shouted, “I- man, I have like, emotional attachment to-“

Keralis twitched again.

He pressed a button on his desk.

A massive flying machine flew up at the top of the lava wall, Etho momentarily spellbound by the build that had Doc’s thumbprints all over it. And speaking of Doc, the man himself was standing at the top of the lava wall on a catwalk, wearing a black suit and an evil smile.

The flames danced in his eye as he placed down a shulkerbox containing…something.

“What…what are you going to do?” Etho asked nervously, “What do you want from me?”

“You? Nothing!” Keralis laughed, “your setup, though, sweetface…”

“WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM MY SETUP!”

“DOC!” Keralis called, snapping his fingers, “BURN IT!”

And Doc threw the shulker into the lava.

Etho gasped as it broke, as his broken keyboard, his sticky mouse, and his monitor with a flickery line going through the middle of it all fell into the flames. His tissue box, though-

Etho shed a tear as the empty Kleenex box hit the lava and instantly burst into flames.

“You’re a monster!” he sniffled.

Both Keralis and Doc burst out laughing. Grand, evil cackles, that eventually petered out.

“Why? Why would you do this to me!?” Etho protested.

Keralis scowled, clicked a few things on his own terminal, and spun the monitor around to see.

“THIS IS WHY.” He shouted.

Etho’s eyes fell on an email he’d sent out to all of the Hermits the previous week.

“I fail to see how that’s a problem. Or worthy of being on your Bond Villain arc.” Etho huffed.

“ETHO. THERE ARE NO SPACES BETWEEN ANY OF THE WORDS!” Keralis shouted.

Does Max give anyone else major twist villain vibes???

Okay I haven't talked about Max much yet, but I think it's kinda wild to see people talking about him like he's just this sweet innocent cinnamon roll when my read on his character was the COMPLETE opposite.

I mean yes, he does seem very sweet. He's very soft spoken. Naive in a way like Lucy, but not as much. Kinda vulnerable. Got a killer smile. And some of the moments with him and Lucy are super cute and adorable. But damn if he doesn't have a DARK side!

Like I've heard people say that Max is stupid or that Aaron Moten's acting is bad, but hell no. Aaron Moten sold me on his acting during the interrogation scene. Max was scared shitless and I FELT that. I think Max was meant to be played as a character who lacks understanding about certain things and seems disconnected from people due to both being brought up in basically a cult and having an inherent lack of empathy.

You think about the fact that he admitted he wanted Dane to get hurt, someone who's supposed to be his best friend. How he coldly sat there and watched Titus die. And before that stood there and watched him get mauled by a bear, almost like he was fascinated by it and wanted to see what was gonna happen. The fact that he tried to kill Thaddeus the moment he became a threat, even though the two of them had appeared to have bonded and developed a genuine friendship. And let's not forget he was willing to let all of Vault 4 get plunged into darkness just so he could keep playing with his power armor.

Max wants to be a knight, he wants to be a hero. And I think he tells himself he wants it for the right reasons, but I think what he REALLY wants is power and recognition. Which is really what every (okay maybe not every, but a lot) good villain wants, right? Because at the end of the day Max wants what Max wants. He's selfish, even though he doesn't think he is.

And sure, he's nice to Lucy. And he went balls to the wall to save her when he thought Vault 4 was gonna execute her. But she's a pretty girl who helped him and offered him a safe home. When she gave him the proposition that if she helped him bring back the head, he would have the Brotherhood lend her some knights to save her dad, he KNEW he couldn't make that promise. But he made the deal anyway. So he doesn't REALLY care about her or what she wants.

And that blank stare he gets when he gets mad? ACTUALLY terrifying. The guy's got serious psychopath vibes. Literal anti-social personality disorder, if you ask me. In fact the first thing I thought about when Max let Titus die is this kids going to end up going to the dark side lol.

And I think that would work really well thematically if they plan on giving The Ghoul a redemption arc beside it. There are so many parallels between Lucy and The Ghoul, and they have such a strong connection to the beginning when the bombs dropped. I get that Max is there to represent the Brotherhood and he's from Shady Sands, the town Hank destroyed, but it felt weird that he didn't seem to be AS important in the grand scheme of things compared to Cooper and Lucy.

But if Max turned out to be a badass twist villain to thematically contrast Cooper's redemption arc, while Lucy remains steadfast to her commitment to goodness and the golden rule I feel like that would really round it out. It would make sense if you consider a lot of people have pointed out that Lucy, Cooper and Max all seem to represent different play styles and different moral alignments. And I think it'd be pretty crazy if the writers of the show set out to make it seem like Ghoul is a bad guy and Max is a good guy, but then it ended up being the opposite.

I mean, there are definitely hints all over the show that The Ghoul isn't as bad as he may seem. And Max has already done some pretty messed up stuff, so I'd say the possibility is totally there, and I'd be here for it!

Who's with me???

i bet on losing dogs 🕷 jake sim

📰 t͟h͟e͟ ͟o͟n͟e͟ ͟t͟i͟m͟e͟ ͟j͟a͟k͟e͟ ͟f͟a͟i͟l͟e͟d͟ ͟t͟o͟ ͟s͟a͟v͟e͟ ͟y͟o͟u͟.͟ spiderman!jake 𝔁 fem!reader  ╱ inspired by gwen's fall in tasm ; major angst, (descriptions of) character death, and overall the regular mcu warnings

Jake Sim never turns his back on a promise he's made.

When you first found out he was New York City's Spider-Man, he swore to you that he'd keep you safe from the dangers that came with being associated with his masked persona.

Out of all the promises he's made, that was the very last one he wanted to break.

Yet here he was.

The masked boy was high on adrenaline as he chased after the villain Goblin among the multitude of buildings in the city.

His energy was beginning to wear off until Goblin tilted his glider to the side for the shortest bit of time, which was more than enough for Jake to catch your hair peeking out along with the look of horror seen in your eyes as the villain's gloved hand kept you from screaming.

The vigilante swung past the buildings faster and faster.

One building.

Another.

And another.

This went on until his enemy maneuvered his glider to the top of a clock tower, Jake making his way up with great speed.

For whatever reason it may be, the Goblin just hovered merely a foot away from the masked hero's spot on the tower, his metallic green mask covering the glances he took at the overly daunting, deep inside of the structure.

Jake eyed his movements nervously and with hesitation, his gaze going back and fourth between you and the villain.

You felt the hand clasped against your mouth move to cup your cheeks as the man's laughter boomed.

"What are you waiting for, spider boy?" you heard him taunt as he moved your face from side to side.

Your gut filled with dread about what the Goblin had up his sleeve and shifted your gaze to the hero clad in red and blue.

Jake seemed to be sensing that something about to happen was even worse than the present situation as he shifted to a more alert position, eyebrows furrowed behind his mask.

"Come and get her," he continued before swiftly pushing you off his glider.

Jake's eyes widened as he immediately followed your trajectory into the tall clock tower. "No!" he screamed as the Goblin's menacing laughter echoed through the nearly hollow space.

Jake despises how time painfully slowed down in these moments. Your last moments.

He hated how everything was clearer, how he could focus on the horror displayed on your face and the tears falling from your eyes for a seemingly longer period of time as you plummeted through the tower.

But he could save you, right? He's done it a few times before, and not once has he failed. What makes this life and death situation any more different?

You wanted him to save you. But time wasn't in your favor, nor did it slow down. You didn't have the pleasure of thinking positively and only of what was overt. And you were quite sure of one thing.

Jake Sim couldn't save you this time.

Death never scared you. The only thing that did was the thought of no longer being able to have dreams for your future with Jake, as well as being able to live them.

You didn't want to start fearing the pain. And so you closed your eyes for just a moment, and thought.

You once heard that when you die, the brain stays active for a final ten minutes, letting you relive the most memorable moments of your life. It brought you comfort thinking that you'd get to see Jake smile for a final time, because it wasn't just a hunch──you knew that those last ten minutes would be a period of time that the boy you loved purely consumed.

And so you opened your eyes.

The wind whistled past your ear, and you had a feeling that sooner or later, you'd be reaching the bottom of the building.

You sent one last painful smile towards your masked lover and mouthed the words you knew he would need to hear.

It's okay. I love you.

Jake's eyes pricked with tears as he read the words coming from your lips.

Realizing his pace wasn't going to meet yours soon enough for him to use his arms to save you, he extended his web shooter wielding arm and prayed as he pushed his middle and ring fingers down on the button and as the web formula shot out and clung to your sweater.

Time returned back to its normal speed. Jake thought he saved you and subconsciously smiled to himself.

That was until he heard it.

Crack.

Jake's face dropped as he watched your body go limp under his web, mere inches away from the ground.

His hands trembled while he pulled the white string back to hold you in his arms as he landed on the ground.

He quickly took the mask off his head and scanned your face for the slightest of twitches, searching for a sign that you were still alive.

"Y/n," his voice trembled as he shifted on his knees, hand pushing your hair back before using two fingers to check the pulse on your neck.

"No," he muttered to himself after a few seconds, unable to find a pulse.

Teary eyed and refusing to give up, he reached for your wrist to try and see if he could feel the pumping of blood from there.

Still none.

Other wrist.

None.

Chest.

None.

Maybe he can check your breathing?

No. None.

Stop.

Jake pulled back slowly after it sunk in that you really weren't breathing, that you really didn't have a pulse, and that he was really unable to save you.

His eyes rimmed with tears as he watched the color drain from your face against the deafening silence of the night's aftermath.

"No," he shook his head before shaking your figure.

"Y/n, wake up,"

"Come on,"

"No you're not dead. You're not,"

A cycle of words of denial continued until the dam finally broke and his tears rolled down continuously.

His sobs echoed through the clock tower. He couldn't let any more words out. His chest hurt and so did his throat.

As he broke down for possibly the first time in his life, the only thing he could think to do was hug your figure.

He stayed like that until dusk turned to dawn.

You were the one person Jake would've traded the world for just to keep alive.

And he'd never forgive himself or never forget how he kept the world safe in return for your life.

Sonic and Nine make a toxic duo/“sibling” relationship

And why Silver could easily fit into that dynamic instead

I have mentioned this before not too long ago, but never got the chance to elaborate on why I personally do not like Sonic and Nine as “brothers”. So!!! I’ll take advantage and explain why Silver and Nine are a much better duo :]]

BUT FIRST!!! I want to credit my pookie @abs9lution who came up with this duo in the first place! i have their thread that elaborates further on silver and nine’s dynamic at the end of this post if you’d like to check it out! it also includes a thread on what’ll happen to silver and blaze’s dynamic, and why Blaze’s character was downgraded throughout the years

the end of this post also includes a tldr for those who don’t have the patience to read all this yapping (it’s okay me too 😭)

Table of Contents:

i. sonic and nine’s toxic relationship

ii. explaining how silver’s addition would’ve mattered in sonic prime

iii. why silver and nine would make a better duo as brothers

I. Sonic and Nine, and why their dynamic does not work out.

I feel like I could go on for AGES as to why i genuinely dislike Sonic and Nine as a duo, because there’s just so many things wrong with these two 😭

If you’ve watched Sonic Prime then you’d know Sonic’s goal was to simply bring back Green Hills, with the help of the friends he made along the way.

This also includes Nine (momentarily) before his (EXTREMELY VALID AND JUSTIFIED) villain arc.

Throughout the show it is extremely obvious Sonic only saw Nine as Tails “but angsty”. He didn’t take time to realize that Nine was NOT Tails and never will be. Whilst his main concern was to bring back his friends, I feel like no one talks about how demeaning this was 😭

The poor kid has absolutely no idea what a friendship is like, so having Sonic rely on him for even a little bit was bound to become a heavily over attached and almost obsessive-one sided dynamic.

So no, it’s not meant to be “toxic brothers!!!” core, it is sooo downgrading to not only Nine’s trauma imho, but also the whole plot of S3 in Sonic Prime. They CANNOT be brothers 😭

This is often dismissed just for the fact of “lol sonic and tails brother ship in all universes”

Do not get my wrong, I adore the Unbreakable Bond stuff, I think they’re the brothers ever!! HOWEVER, this should not apply with Sonic and Nine for obvious reasons.

I can yap more about this but the main purpose of this post is about Silver and Nine, so I’ll keep this section short!!

II. Silver should’ve been in Sonic Prime and I will die on this hill 

LIKE??? ITS LITERALLY ABOUT THE MULTIVERSE WHY WOULDN’T HE (and Blaze) BE IN THIS SHOW???

Silver in general needs to be in more official media but that’s a rant for another post 😭

His addition to this show would’ve been sooo important, it actually would’ve changed a lot of the plot and even the ending of S3 (which was absolute shit imo 😭)

I don’t have a lot to say about this part of the post, apart from the fact his inclusion would have made the show more interesting, and his background is very similar to Nine!! (Which I’ll explain in the next section)

III. Why Silver and Nine would make a better bond than with Sonic.

they have similar backgrounds and interests! both come from a dystopian city with the want for change; one wants to leave and make a new world, while the other wants to help fix his.

They both balance each other nicely! And YES I KNOW THE SAME IS FOR SONIC. THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT THERES NO TRAUMA INVOLVED BETWEEN THE TWO 😭 and it’s not a complete copy of sonic and tails but with an angsty version of the fox

silver wouldn’t see nine as “tails but angsty” or just another version of tails, I think he’d see nine as his own person!! they could keep each other company and be the sillies ever

Something I like about this is the fact it’s not EXACTLY like sonic and tails, and they can still have that brother bond!! They have tons of potential, which is why I ignore canon and follow my delusions in fanon 😁

TLDR: sonic and nine booooo silver and nine yippee!!! /hj

okay in a serious note, sonic and nine just wouldn’t have a healthy friendship that wouldn’t have one-sided obsession and lots of toxicity, while silver, a character that albeit random, still has enough similarities to fit into that role!!

Please read the thread behind the mastermind of this headcanon!! They explain the details I’ve put in this post, but I’d like for you guys to read it too. It includes a separate thread by another person based on Blaze and Silver’s odd dynamic and why it’s often brushed off!!

sorry for any spelling errors I did NOT proofread this

Can I request morphs reaction to their s/o getting really wounded in battle?

Warnings: Mentions of injury, blood

Oh they’d drop everything, including their cocky and fun behavior, when they saw how hurt you got. Usually they’ll exchange banter with the villains, but when they see you got knocked out, they’ll quickly fight off villains and rush over to protect you and see if you were okay

When they saw how much blood there was around and on you, they felt panic sink into his gut as they yelled for help. They looked at your wounds and attempted to stop the bleeding, but more kept gushing out between their fingers as their panic and fear rose into their chest, their heart beating rapidly as they watched the life literally drain out of you. They wouldn’t even realize when help arrived, they’d be so focused on you that they’d be sort of in a daze and everything would be a blur as the team got you into the Blackbird and rushed you to the Mansion so Beast could operate on you

They’re the type to sleep in a chair next to your bedside rather than sleeping in their own room, they don’t want to leave your side for even a minute while you’re hurt like this. Logan will bring them food and ask how you’re doing, and try to make small talk to try and take Morph’s mind off of you even for a minute. But their eyes would gaze at your sleeping face, waiting for your eyes to open

As soon as you eventually woke up, they’d jump to their feet and yell for Hank, grabbing your hand and studying your face for discomfort or pain. When you saw them and smiled, they’d immediately feel relief wash over them seeing you okay and conscious. After Hank checked you over and filled you in, he let you two have time alone

“Thank god, I was so worried! You were bleeding out so bad, I thought you were gonna die! How do you feel? You want some water? Food? I can get you whatever you want, or, at least make Logan go get you whatever you want cause I don’t want to leave you. Are you comfortable? Do you want a different blanket? These ones are so scratchy. Are you-“

“Kevin! I’m okay, babe!…..actually, get me some ice water?”

“On it!”

They are SO attentive during your recovery. They stick with you when there’s not a mission they need to be on, keeping you entertained while bedridden and making sure your every need is met. They help you to the bathroom when you need it, they bring you every meal and eat with you, and you love them yes, but you’ve had to kick him out of your small hospital bed to sleep comfortably and they’ll walk away to go upstairs to their own bed like a sad puppy with its tail between its legs-

When you’re cleared to leave the medical bay and start working up your strength again, Morph is there every step of the way. They’ll spot you to make sure you don’t drop equipment on yourself or fall and hurt yourself again. They can be a tad overbearing sometimes, but they’re just so worried about you after seeing you so close to death, they just want to make sure you’re safe and healthy afterwards. So they’ll help you rebuild your strength and they are very overprotective on the battlefield but you find it sweet

(Lesser Known) Marauders Fic Recs, part 2

Downfall (by Lunarde) -

They say villains and heroes are two sides of a the same coin.

Regulus always understood that but to Sirius it was impossible to fathom. Despite having grown up together, they became very opposed to each other. Still, they held onto tight to preserve their bond. But the tensions building in the wizarding world might be the finale straw that'd lead them on two very different paths.

Bitter Waters (by way_too_many_fandoms) -

This is Remus Lupin. He is seventeen years old and priming himself for uni, just hoping to get through his last year of secondary school. Remus knows many things; he knows that leaving Wales was probably a good decision, that his mother was trying her best, and that life can really suck.

What he does not know is that he is about to meet a boy that will change everything.

The Hand That Feeds (by Rollercoasterwords) -

Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment. /// Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.

I adored you Madly, Extravagantly, Absurdly.  (by MiriamMT) -

The Blacks want to marry off their youngest child. He begs Sirius for help and tells him a secret: He is a man and would rather die than be forced to be anyone's wife. Panicked, Sirius arranges a marriage between his brother and his friend James Potter, knowing that Regulus can be the man he is in the English countryside on James' estate.

James wants to ensure Regulus' happiness, even at the expense of putting his life on hold for a while. Regulus wants to ensure James doesn't fall into societal ruin because of him. Sirius wants to be loved. Barty must decide whether he wants to keep causing destruction or choose redemption. And Remus is just a very tired butler who watches James and Regulus dance around their actual feelings (literally).

Frozen Pines (by yourfriendlygryffindor) -

After being rejected by Lily brutally, James finds himself falling for his best friend's brother. As they get pushed out into the world, they find themselves manipulated into joining the war efforts. When James and Regulus realize this, it's too late to save themselves from the pains of war, so they take things into their own hands.

Bury Our Secrets Shallow (by writtenicarus) -

Sirius knew that he wasn’t considered a good person. As a matter of fact he wasn’t good at anything at all. Not a good son or brother or student or cousin or protector. But the truth was that he tried. He tried so hard, too hard. It hurts when his younger brother keeps pushing him away after they left their parents home and chose to move in together, but if Sirius can’t be good, he wants to find something good to live for.

When they moved to a small town in rural England after escaping their parents, Regulus was determined to ignore his older brother at all costs. What neither expected was for their lives, relationships and friendships to intertwine so deeply they had no choice to face each other and reconcile with how much they had suffered.

OR a small-town AU. the kids aren't alright.

The Brightest Star (by Badfoot) -

And oh.

Oh.

Oh he was kind of beautiful wasn’t he? Had Regulus always been?

To anyone else, he was all sharp edges and scathing remarks, but not to James. He could never be just that to James.

He could never just…be, to James.

And oh no.

That was new.

Like Real People Do (by Arins_Writings) -

Regulus Black miraculously survives the cave of Inferi. There isn't a single soul that he trusts, given that his brother is now locked up as a Death Eater Sympathizer and James Potter is dead.

James Potter.

The single most loyal person that Regulus Black had ever had the unfortunate luck to meet. He was annoying, and loud, and impossibly Gryffindor, but James would have done anything to win the war.

Even working with his best mate's baby brother, the real Death Eater.

The Road Not Taken (by MollieMaryMarie) -

Ten years ago, Remus broke the heart of his best friend. Just before that friend became world-renowned pop icon, Sirius Black. Now, his other best friends are having a baby, and they've named both Remus and Sirius the godfather of their unborn child as some convoluted plot to get them back together. They pretend it doesn't work while simultaneously, and secretly, finding their way back to one another.

What ending would you have liked for the League villains in BNHA?

Well, there's two answers to this question. What would be my ideal ending to the League of Villains requires major story structure changes. To the point where it almost becomes an entirely different story,v venturing into fanfiction territory.

Basically keeping the story as it is until My Villain Academia, there's no longer a clear and distinct line between Hero and Villain. Shigaraki is now the real deuteragonist of the story, and the story is split between Deku's journey and Shigaraki's.

The league are no longer just an insane fringe element that doesn't deserve to be listened to or have their wrongs redressed. Since they now have the MLA they have public support behind them, they like become actual rebels against hero society with even public support. Either the War Arc doesn't happen, or the villains win and society is effectively destroyed so that the heroes no longer have their tight grasp.

A bunch of kids die in the war, because they weren't relevant and it's a consequence for UA raising child soldiers. The remaining relevant kids are forced to cope with two realities, number one they were violent enforcers of a broken system, number two the villains are right in some ways. A moment of the kids going "Are we the bad guys?" However, they can't agree with destroying everything so they have to fight to rebuild. The kids have lost faith in the adults, break off from them entirely so the adults no longer hog all the screentime and try to attempt to solve the problem on their own. Also, Enji dies in the war arc because Hori didn't do anything satisfying with his character beyond that part, and Dabi is hit with feelings of: oh no killing my father didn't fix my problem.

Then you'd basically have to have the narrative find a compromise between Shigaraki's complete radicalism but lack of any motivation to rebuild, and Deku's desire to save others but lack of self-awareness about the evils of his society and how the system can't be fixed as it is. Like a war between the opposite forces of preservation and destruction and Deku and Shgiaraki having to eventually work together to build their world. Maybe Deku even manages to convince Shigaraki there is a future, and save him from statements like "I don't care what happens next." The League of Villains and the reduced Class 1A are like two parallel groups in the manga running in tandem, and also Deku's bonds with his friends are closer now and actually shown in story they become a tight knit group so both sides are trying to protect the people they love too.

Here was my realistic ending I was expecting when the war started. The kids fight their respective villainous foils and then manage to talk them down and solve things with words instead of violence. Then the villains and heroes team up in order to save Shigaraki from AFO, which is the first step of redemption of the league, and also the kids realizing that the league love each other. At the end of the fight Deku tells Shigaraki what he's always wanted to hear when he was Tenko, "You can be a hero, too." bookending the story with the words All Might told him. The villains either get rehabilitated because they helped take down AFO, or they run off to become vigilantes.

What we got was everyone being sent to hell instead and that sure is something.

haha, i'm glad my hypothetical movie can entertain people other than me

keep in mind this is stuff i mentally indulge in while i'm waiting for the bus and things, so it's a very sprawling thing. sometimes i just go "hey what about *that* moment in the epic cycle, how would i make that a segment in this movie", so this is a very undefined ever-changing concept. BUT i've got some basic guidelines for fun like,

each segment is meant to be tight and defined without any timeskips longer than say, a few hours (each is meant to be a moment in time and give a basic impression of an event, not play it all out from a single perspective).

no divine pov. gods are present but never the focus of a segment.

no main character acts like a villain -- they might seem monstrous or villainous in other characters' segments, but the goal is to make each choice make sense from their position as long as they're the main character. NO CENTRAL ANTAGONIST, this is about humans on both sides of a devastating war.

try to think outside the box and not make the choice of pov the "obvious" one. it's not meant to be a series of "most iconic [character] moment starring [that character]".

the beginning is the most definite to me because that's the part i think is most challenging to get right. so the initial segments right now go like this:

(this is gonna be so self indulgent, i'm sorry)

sarpedon, his last few hours alive. well into a battle a massive obscuring cloud descends and he's suddenly alone with his father zeus (who seems sad, but does not tell sarpedon why). sarpedon takes a break and has a jovial conversation with hector in the shade about their families. he returns to battle, gets killed by patroclus, horrifically hacked apart, and we get a glimpse of his nightmarish afterlife.

patroclus: begins right in the middle of the meeting where achilles and agamemnon look like they might kill each other at any moment, but athena intervenes. we see the aftermath where patroclus tries to calm down achilles and also handle the briseis exchange with odysseus. he gets a little too heated and needs to take a break from everyone, and goes to play with his dogs.

paris in sparta. it's one of his first diplomatic journeys alongside one of his brothers, he's very nervous, he lived as a shepherd slave up until a few years ago and the people here all know it. menelaus is kind but also dismissive, but when paris is alone with helen we see just how vibrant and charming he is. she is clearly delighted by him.

helen at troy, visibly a decade older. it's the day of menelaus and paris' duel, and she can't bear to watch, she's having a full blown panic attack inside the palace. aphrodite comes to her and reassures her she's stopped the duel and saved paris (and menelaus didn't even die!), and does not understand why helen becomes furious at her. aphrodite orders helen into the bedroom with paris, and we see just how much a decade+ of outside tension has soured their relationship. they fight, she tells him she wishes he'd died, that she misses her husband, she misses her home, but they eventually make up -- she still can't resist him.

i keep switching up which character/episode goes here but it better have another battlefield scene, i think, to move things outside any palace walls again and make up for being denied seeing the duel. keep the audience entertained!

aaaaand you know. it continues from there. some other individual segments i've been staging in my head lately:

calchas, observing the last heartbreaking moments between iphigenia and agamemnon before he takes her away and sacrifices her. calchas is an old man plagued by disturbing and triumphant glimpses of the future (=bits from the rest of the movie. just a disorienting second here and there, not nearly as comprehensible as cassandra's in another segment). he weeps for iphigenia and he weeps because he knows it's only the beginning. he must do right by the gods but he knows that his king will never, ever forgive him for this.

hecuba, helping priam prepare to go plead with achilles for their son's corpse. she gets increasingly angry and upset about achilles, he gets increasingly quiet. when she stops herself and apologizes for her unseemly outburst, he asks her to continue. he's feeling all those same feelings but is too tired to express them. they have lost so many children. they cry, they reminisce about when hector was a baby, about all their little babies through the years, and smile together. she sends him off into the night with kind words.

neoptolemus, arriving for the first time at the greek camp with odysseus and diomedes. he steps onto dry land and it's a whirlwind of information and names and faces, all the leaders there to greet him, show him around, explain the tactical layout of the battlefield, which leaders they're up against. and then bam-- total silence as neoptolemus enters achilles' tent and is alone, looking at his dead father's belongings and trying to understand and mourn a legendary man he never knew.

odysseus' segment is the meeting where they decide astyanax' fate. it's almost like a courtroom drama. as grim as it is, odysseus perfectly lays out a case for why astyanax must die that night. he knows how these stories go, if they decide to let a baby like this live, or even if they want to kill it through exposure (just look at what happened with paris!). it's a triumph of rhetoric, and odysseus finally wins the case.

and many more that i've thought of through the months, haha. i'm not saying these are HOW I ALWAYS ENVISION THESE CHARACTERS/SCENES, the fun is in trying to distill and edit things into a cinematic version meant for a mainstream audience. which is hard to convey here because it's a movie in my head.

god this is so much more fanficcy than i ever get on this blog

[aceofwhump]

recently got back into Henry Danger. both mains are so whumpable!!!

Captain Man (Ray) has invulnerability, but that doesn't mean he can't feel pain. it's mostly played for laughs, followed by his catchphrase "I'm okay!", but in the times when he loses his power? it's so good. the first time it happens, he's afraid to even go outside, but as it happens more often (I think it happens 4 times across the whole show), he learns how to fight crime without it. there's a scene in one of the later seasons, I'm not sure which, where he loses his invulnerability and gets his arm broken. again, it's played for laughs, but the whole time, he keeps himself between his sidekick and who they're fighting, broken arm and all.

speaking of the sidekick. Kid Danger (Henry) has no powers for the first three (?) seasons of the show. so he's fighting crime and dealing with the fact that he could possibly die every day. he gets blown up quite a few times (again. laughs.), and is always mocked when he shows up to fights without Captain Man. after all, he *is* a kid. 13/14 in the first season, 18-ish in the last.

I just. I love how protective they are of each other. there's a scene (again, unsure which season) where KD gets shocked and knocked out by a villain, and CM is at his side in an instant, trying to get him up. moments like that were rare because it was funnier to have one of the two laugh at the other's pain, but GOD it was so good.

sorry. rambling over lol

Oh wow!! Ramble away friend! i love passionate rambles. All that happens in Henry Danger!? Isn't that a Nickelodeon show!? Dang! That's good shit right there. I freaking love when invulnerable characters lose their powers. Such a great trope. And Henry has no powers?! What! I had no idea. That's crazy.

watching wemmbus uu the war vid

PLS PLS PLS I WANT ZAM TO DIE SO BAD (ik he doesnt)

“is this really how you wanna go out wemmbu?” I could write a senior project on zams tone of voice when he talks to wemmbu.

UGH ZAM WHAT JS WRONG WITH YOU WHY IS HE SUCH A GOOD VILLAIN HES ACTUALLY SO PSYCHOTIC I LOVE HIM SM UUGGGGHHHHHH

kind of crazy that zam actually has some moral high ground in that he values peoples deaths much more than wemmbu does, wemmbu doesnt hesitate to kill people and the deaths of others dont effect him much. zam on the other hand is actively disgusted by the idea of killing anyone unless he has to, he’ll imprison and torture and manipulate whoever gets in his way but he wont kill unless thats the only way to keep them away- like with wemmbu, zam isnt hesitating to threaten wemmbu and his teams actual lives because he knows that killing wemmbu is the only way to keep him away. but even as he threatens wemmbus teams lives, wemmbu just laughs because hes never cared as much as zam.

oh I’m really not normal abt how close zam was standing to him in that sceneeee

“pangi!! pangi 🥺🥺 help meee!! thats what you sound like.”

the visual of zam and his three guards fully maxed out standing in front of wemmbu tangled in cobwebs in half broken armour I wish I could draw :(

“is your plan to wait for my elytra to break— cause that might work imma be honest with you—“

omg pangiiiii :3333 (was watching the colour the world vod bevofre this I’m really pangi hyped rn)

holy shit loppezz! shes important later! I didnt know she was on zams guard originally ngl i feel like so many important side characters started as zams guard and then turn into invis mafia and then became their own independent people once the mafia disbanded (side note finding some straggling invis mafia who no longer have ash but keep the beliefs would be really cool)

what would win in a fight: a massive work of engineering genius designed to commit horrible destruction and acts of terrorism, or blac rok in sky

egg actually trolling 💀

ooo not egg saying the lesson wemmbu is still trying to learn a season and a half later

wemmbu and egg taking turns being freaky about each other

wemmbu and eggs relationship where they’re both comfortable splitting up and doing their own thing and meeting back up later is so refreshing coming from spokes dependancy on mapicc and total crash out without him

YES! ! ! BECOME WHAT YOU MOST FEAR! ! ! ! ! ! ! YOU ARE THE VILLAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!

“you say you wanna have fun but you wanna wipe half the people on the server- how do you have fun then?”

“BRO THAT IS FUN”

no way wemmbus gonna let ro die right???

the duel between flame and ro is kind of insane because basically this happened in flames pov recently and I bet uu!flame was thinking about this duel the whole time and half expecting wemmbu or someone to show up and interrupt the same way

NOT WEMMBU HAVING A SHRED OF HUMANITY WHAT IS THIS????

“and then theres pangi whos uh, whos lowkey trash but hes close with zam soo”

(why does mane sound like hes stretching the entire conversation)

see the way manes talking it so so sounds like hes bullshitting about being as good as flame but from ls I know flame is only slightly better than him so wtf is happening

“you seem awfully excited to betray your friends and family”

“well… theyre not my friends.”

flame and mane brothers confirmed he didnt deny the family part (ye ik theyre cousins irl and the whole blindfold brothers thing but I still think theyre sweet)

“zam empire was the strongest team mane, I dont get why youd betray.”

“bro it was only the strongest team because I was on it.”

oh shitttttttttt that was lowkey kinda colddd

also “I’m not scared of flame. maybe a year ago, but not anymore”

“ummm we’re basically gonna blackmail him into betraying his nation and getting his friends killed :3”

ok why was pentar and yungys reunion kind of adorable yungy hears pentars voice and theyre immediately both so excited + yungys complaint of not being able to even see pentar ugh theyre adorable

NO PLEASE DONT MAKE PENTAR KILL YUNGY HES JUST A BABY I LOVE HIM

this is like a murder mystery but we’re following the murder as he slowly picks everyone off starting with the weakest

EHEHEH FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

“you know youre nothing without me right?” the manipulation is crazyyyy

“yo mane is this winnable!?”

“hahaha I dont think so!”

bro where IS parrot actually I’m 2/3 of the way in and bro has still not shown up

why do all of zams guards glaze him so hard 💀

its so funny how zams guards are just being toxic basically and calling wemmbu weak and coward really generic insults but zams insults are so specific. so targeted. theyre meant for wemmbu and theyre meant to hurt him and him specifically.

wemmbu just pulling out more and more armour is actually so funny

zam literally like yeah but I like him :3

ONCE AGAIN THE VISION OF ZAM CROUCHING OVER WEMMBU TANGLED IN COBS I WANT TO BE ABLE TO DRAW

are these hearts 🤣🤣🤣

also once again the image of wemmbu standing weak and defenceless with no armour surrounded by zams fully kitted guards watching mane and flame fight on equal ground

is this the equivalent of mane and wemmbu breaking up over text 😭

this is weirdly calm like it just feels inevitable

does this count as one strike cause if I was parrot I would NOT let this pass

why is everyone on this server so ok with dying

THE FACT THAT THE MUSIC STARTED UP AGAIN WHEN ZAM SHOWED BACK UP BECAUSE HES THE ONLY ONE THAT WEMMBU ACTUALLY CARED ENOUGH ABOUT TO GET AN ADRENALINE SPIKE FROM HIM SHOWING UP

aww zam apologized OH MY GOD IS THAT CLOWN PIERCE

WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WAHT WHATW DGWJDBDKF
