Mother's day

Your husband Suga recruits your son for a Mother's Day celebration, for my Parenting event<3

requested by @liquidcatt. word count; 519 – wife!reader

Oh boy, was Suga ready for Mother’s Day. The only thing Sugawara Koshi might love more than you would be the baby you two made, and even though he tried to show you just how much he loved you every day, he went all out for the special days.

The grey-haired man got up bright and early to sit in your son’s room, making sure to be there when he woke up so that you wouldn’t hear a single sound that might awaken your motherly instincts. He whispered his good mornings and lifted the toddler into his arms, bringing him to the bathroom to prepare for the day.

Suga bought matching outfits for him and his son, down to the panda slippers. He knows you love matching, so he also got you a similar outfit in your style, already laid out on the stool by your side of the bed.

Dressed up all nicely, he carried your bundle of joy into the kitchen and sat him in the high chair with a simple breakfast. He hesitated momentarily before deciding to put another shirt over the toddler’s nice clothes. “An elegant eater, you are not,” he mumbled to the kid, only to get the usual babble in return. “Not much of a talker yet either.”

“Papa!” he answered, which had coincidentally been his first word.

Suga grinned, getting distracted from the breakfast he was supposed to make. “Mhm, I’m papa. But remember what we learnt for today? Mama, say it with me.”

All he got was a fart, and sniffing that horrid smell also made him realise he burnt the first pancake.

“Shit!” he cussed, running over to get the food out of the pan.

“Ship!” your baby innocently repeated after his dad who pursed his lips in defeat.

He switched between looking at the burnt pancake and looking at the toddler a couple of times, only to conclude that “The first ones are never perfect, anyway.”

At one point, the romantic breakfast was ready with a plate of pancakes and a bouquet of your favourite flowers. Just as Suga was trying to wrestle the baby’s stained t-shirt over his head without spilling anything on the actual outfit, you curiously stuck your head through the door to the kitchen. “Are my favourite boys in here, perhaps?”

“In here, mama!” Suga announced even though you had already seen them, finally getting the overshirt off your son. “Good morning, my precious wife. Happy Mother’s Day!”

“Mama!”

You gasped, so audibly it made Suga pose proudly on command, side by side with his sidekick to show off the matching outfits and newly achieved vocabulary.

“He said, mama! That’s me!” you cheered, running over to embrace your two boys, making them jump in a circle with you while you cooed over the outfits as well. “I’m the luckiest mother in the world!” you announced and ran to get your camera.

And as Suga held up his hand for a high five that his son definitely didn’t reciprocate, he decided that this was another mission accomplished.

Mission make wifey feel extra loved, level one: breakfast.

for the requester: thank you for the request, I love Suga<3

His Dangerous Wife » LA Knight

plot: la knight's wife comes to even the odds against the judgement day

pairings: wrestler! reader x la knight

warnings: none tbh just fluff

a/n: there isn't enough la knight stuff on here and that makes me sad :(( wrestling last name is kingley bc i love it

It was quite chaotic backstage, making it almost impossible for Y/N to locate her husband. But she found him after a few minutes of searching. He stood with John Cena who was also his tag partner for Fastlane. Y/N didn't have a match, seeing as she was literally returning from an ankle injury that happened at SummerSlam when she lost her championship to Iyo Sky. Y/N Kingley was a crowd favorite, as was her husband LA Knight, but not many people knew they were married, or even together. They lived a very private life so it made sense.

Tonight, she was set to return to help her husband even the odds against the Judgement Day which sparked a future fued between herself and Rhea Ripley. Though LA Knight didn't know of this. "Darling, do you know where Izzy is? I can't find her." Y/N asks, grabbing his attention. Izzy was her best friend, the woman also known as Azalea Evans, the younger sister of Chris Evans and one of the best women's wrestlers. She was also engaged to Rhea Ripley. He furrowed his brows, shaking his head, "Nah, but she should be somewhere around here. Probably with Rhea."

"I think I seen her talking to Cody in catering earlier," John adds. Y/N smiled gratefully, "Thank you. I will see you two later, alright? Good luck with the match darling." She pressed a quick peck on his cheek before quickly making her way towards catering, finding Azalea indeed with Cody. Y/N took a seat at their table, "one thing I do not miss about being back is getting lost backstage all the time." Azalea chuckles at her complaint, "honestly, I'm pretty much used to it."

"You would think because I've been wrestling for 20 years that I would be used to this, but I am definitely not." Y/N mumbled, picking up a brownie from Izzy's plate. Izzy chuckled before glancing at the television where LA Knight's match with Jimmy Uso was coming up. Cody cleared his throat, "so, how do we feel about Jade signing with WWE?" Izzy and Y/N were former AEW wrestlers so they knew Jade quite well. Though they had actually never faced Jade yet. They knew how she felt with all the top tier treatment because that's how they were treated when signing with AEW having been originally WWE stars.

"I'm really excited about it actually. I'm super happy for her. I can't wait to face her." Y/N said, she was always happy for any of the wrestlers who got signed to other companies. Izzy nods in agreement, "Me too. She actually called me after she signed so I'm really excited for her. We're supposed to train together soon." Cody nods with a smile, "I feel the same way. I'm excited to see what she can do here."

"His match is starting so we should head to the gorilla." Izzy stood up, the three of them left towards the gorilla where the Judgement Day and Jey Uso were at. Izzy was quick to greet Rhea whilst Y/N was watching the monitors. LA Knight obviously wins, but then Judgement Day comes out, standing on the ring apron, leaving Knight and Cena outnumbered. Jey Uso was the first to come out, sliding in the ring though they were still very outnumbered. Cody's music hit, he was quick to come out.

Rhea jumps on the apron next to her boys, signaling that they weren't gonna back down. That's when Y/N's music hit. The crowd went crazy, obviously not expecting her to show up at all, let alone for a situation such as this. "It's Y/N Kingley! She's back! What a surprise!" Michael Cole' expressed. Y/N strutted out, Rhea's face dropped at the sight of her. Meanwhile, her husband was in disbelief, a small grin tugged at the corner of his lips. "Rhea is in disbelief! Y/N has expressed her frustration with the Judgement Days attempts to recruit her best friend Azalea Evans!" Corey Graves explains.

"That and the fact that the Judgement Day is targeting her husband LA Knight," Cole points out. "Her husband?! She's married?!" Cody Rhodes and John Cena sat on the middle rope for Y/N to step through, the Judgement Day seemingly conflicted now. She walks past her shocked husband to come face to face with Rhea, a grin on her lips. "Still wanna fight?"

The boys behind her grin as Rhea makes the guys stand down, claiming it wasn't worth it. Paul Heyman takes Solo's hand, signaling him to fall back. Unfortunately for them, Y/N wasn't a patient person. She threw the first hand, knocking Rhea off the apron, the boys are quick to join in the brawl. She grinned, leaning against the rope as Cody and Jey Uso both do separate dives out the ring, knocking down the Judgement Day and Jimmy.

Rhea drags Y/N out of the ring, going back in forth with her as Solo stepped in the ring with John. Y/N was quick to fight off Rhea, throwing her into Dom as LA Knight took care of Solo. LA hits JD with a BFT, then Jey hits him with a super kick before Cena performs a five knuckle shuffle. Y/N slides in the ring as Cena continues to perform an AA on JD. Cody whips off his belt throwing it into the crowd before hitting JD with a crossrhodes.

The boys turn to her, basically offering up JD if she wanted a go at him. She laughs, shaking her head but they insisted. "Come on! It can't hurt! Well not for you at least." Cody says. Y/N chuckled, giving in the crowd cheers. LA Knight offers his hand, she takes it, using it to jump off the rope and perform a clean moonsault onto JD. "And a perfectly done moonsault from Kingley!"

"Yeahh!" LA Knight cheered, taking her hand and pulling his wife up. "That was fun!" She cheered wistfully, high fiving Jey, Cody, and Cena as LA Knight kept a hand on her waist. The crowd cheered as Cody raised Y/N's hand proudly, "Our wonderful savior!"

LA pulled her closer so she could hear better, "You didn't tell me you were coming out." Y/N chuckled, "cause it was a surprise darling. Did it surprise you love?" He laughs lightly, nodding like it was obvious, and it was. "Surprised me so much I could kiss you right about now." He jokes, also being partially serious because he really wished he could kiss her.

She shrugged lightly, "you can kiss me, I don't mi-" she was cut off by his lips pressed against hers and very loud cheering from the fans. He didn't waste a second kissing her, not caring about the thousands of fans watching. She chuckles softly pulling away, quick to remind him that they were still in public. "Come on, let's close up." Y/N climbs the top rope, doing her normal taunt as LA Knight, Jey Uso, Cody, and Cena all followed behind her.

Shaun was quick to drag her into the locker room the second the show was over. Not even giving her a chance to talk as he showered her with kisses. "Shouldn't we go to the hotel first?" She chuckles, pulling away. "What? Scared of a little locker room sex, doll?" He teased, rubbing her sides as he held back to urge to tear her clothes off.

Y/N sucked in a breath, "fuck, you know what that name does to me." He smirked, pressing a kiss to her neck as she pushed him towards the showers. "I should save your ass more often if this is the reward I get in return."

"Yeah."

People not believing James and Miranda are romantic really baffles me as well. I get that its a plot twist that James loves Thomas but this isnt a plot twist where its you think person a loves person b but they actually love person c.

And like the evidence for them not being romantic is like what? That we dont really see them kiss? That the one time we are shown they are having sex its bad? Im pretty sure the sex scene is more to establish that James is not like the other pirates. And there are a plethora of reasons for why the sex was bad this one time instead of jumping to the conclusion they only have bad sex. For example james is wounded at the time. As for the kissing people dont need to kiss often to be in a romantic relationship. Anne and Jack dont kiss that much on the show either. And theres the fact everyone knows barlow is flints woman that would not have come out of nowhere.

Dont people like the poly aspect of it? Is it biphobia? I hope not because this is the best i have seen of a poly relationship in media, though I havent come across it a lot. Where i can clearly see how and why three people all love each other rather than it being a convenient way to end a love triangle where i feel like two of them dont care for each other that much.

Can I just say THANK YOU for giving me these Miranda-James thoughts? Because thank you.

Miranda Barlow and her ways of being loving, her ways of being romantic and sexual are all pretty unique and there's not a single thing about her that isn't complicated. In addition, she's a WOMAN woman, not girly, not crushing out, sexually liberated AND discreet about it, not constantly in the throes of some trembly emotion but is actually a very tough person, designed to be a fully grown lady - in sum, she's a bit hard to wrestle with for a lot of people. She's happily (very very much) married to a man and they adore each other as people AND ALSO for how they can together build a joint life they both like. There's a hard edge of pragmatism to her, which I find super hot, because I'm a hard edged pragmatic woman myself, but I think that makes it hard to see how romantic she actually is. The joy of the Thomas-James-Miranda poly connection for me is from the fact that these two men not only find her hot but they find her hardness and pragmatism hot. SO unusual. Second, she likes men who are bi, and doesn't seem to have much interest in monogamy or faithfulness at all. Again, non standard. Third, she DOES have a romantic relationship with James BUT there's always that constantly calcuating, assessing mind that she has - she approaches James because he's cute, she can tell he's a rule breaker and fucking around with rule breakers is ironically a good way to be discreet, AND she can see that he's crushing out on her husband, which she actually likes about him. She recruits James into the group project of protecting and enabling Thomas - that was part of the attraction. It's not a swooning, like, I must have you and will die without you type thing at all, which is generally the easily digestible formulation of romance. Moreover, Miranda uses sex in a variety of ways - for fun, for love, as stress relief, as a game, to make a point to a houseguest - and on pirate island she just does NOT have as many options as she used to in London, so I take it as, we saw her have "make Guthrie unhappy and I need an orgasm" sex rather than "express my desire for you" sex with Flint, which he fully accepted and uh, cooperated with.

And then there's the fact that shipping in most fandoms tends to be done by male-attracted women who want to just do yaoi (very valid, I do this in other fandoms, just not this one) and so it's kind of inconvenient to have to acknowledge that James Flint does actually have a romantic relationship with a woman and does actually have sexual attraction to women, so that may be motivating the desire to just dismiss their romantic connection out of hand.

By the way - I would recommend (unless you are a super very pro John Silver person in which case the episode comes with a warning) listening to this podcast episode made by @heycarrots (It's REALLY great, overall, as a podcast full stop). TLDR for our discussion - in that episode Dr. Tankard posits that James Flint's romantic orientation and real sex life is basically to participate in a group project - he loves being part of a group that is doing a thing, and that's where all his motivation, erotic energy, everything, comes from, and that analysis really works very well for my understanding of Flint.

I haven't shared much of my own thoughts on the implosion of the Best Friends faction.... So I'm gonna do this in a semi-list format lol;

Please, and I can't stress this enough, get THAT BLOB OF TOXIC WASTE DON CALLIS AWAY FROM ORANGE - DON'T TOUCH HIM, DON'T TALK TO HIM, DON'T EVEN LOOK AT HIM - Do NOT drag him down with you and the rest of the huge stars whose careers you've put at a standstill just because you're affiliated with them 🤮

I don't like how Kris keeps trying to hold OC back, she better not be in on this somehow. I know she seems projected to turn on my husband Willow and that already annoys me, lol

THEY BETTER BE LYING ABOUT CHUCK, I saw Jon Alba was saying that he'd been asking around regarding him being unable to wrestle every again and so far he said he's heard that it's legit 😭😭😭😭 I'm still holding out hope

My initial theory is that Trent has joined the Don Callis family and that they're in cahoots to mess with OC psychologically even further, which is nasty work regardless of whom he's trying to recruit or already recruited, cuz Callis is a bum lol

Another theory I had, which I think could be a best possible option if this is in fact going to unfortunately involve Callis, is; if for whatever reason it IS Orange that joins the DC family; this could work in Orange's favor in terms of having a bunch of big dudes that could defend him again when he gets ragdolled cuz he's smol boi (i.e. Takeshita, Hobbs if he wasn't injured, Ospreay for the time being, Fletcher), kind of "replace" what Best Friends used to do for OC... PLUS, it could mean a wardrobe change for OC which I personally would welcome lol, but the Callis variable is the one that makes it all feel gross lol.

I'm hoping also that Chuck doesn't end up turning on Orange also because I don't think my heart could handle that lol

I have a few other theories too but I can at least say, I don't know where this is going so kudos to the boys for that! I want to see Orange completely go off the deep end on Trent though, like get some heavy machinery to chase Trent down with and such 😭

Day 1 of 10 for 200 (Yandere) follower special: Kintarō - Raph

Am I big fairytale nerd? Maybe.

This can be read both Platonic/Romantic although at times it might lean to romantic (still quite subtle tho).

Tw: Accidental injury, implied trauma, MC is trapped in a house for a few weeks bcs Raph is a little *crazy*

Kintarō (Golden Boy) Synopsis: One day, a lady ran away to the mountains to hide from her late husband's enemies. There, her son was born but unlike any other infant, he was bestowed with superior strength. From a young age, he could cut down trees and crush boulders, as expected from a superhuman. Since he lived so far out in the wilderness, he became friends with the animals and learned to speak their strange tongues. As problems arise within the mountains, he saves everybody and is known to be a hero throughout the forests. Then he gets recruited by one of the greatest generals and ends up being one of the best samurai to have ever lived.

On a cold night, a rat man dashes through the trees, avoiding all obstacles near him. In his arms, he cradles a young infant, its body covered in a red cloth the color of blood. The nobleman looks behind him, in search of his ex-lover's soldiers along with the bandits of a wicked researcher. Fortunately, he seems to be a sufficient distance away from them. He continues to sprint, adrenaline pumping through his veins.

Eventually, he comes to a stop, staring at the decayed state of the cottage, the holes through the roof exposing the inside to the elements. He steps in, further inspecting the dusty wooden walls.

"It may not be much, my son, but I hope it is enough for you to grow up stronger than the mightiest of generals." He murmurs, gently caressing the baby with a finger; it doesn't answer, rather gripping onto the finger harshly.

The father jolts, retracting his finger, "My, you're quite strong already!" He pauses, before craning his head down and smiling, "My Golden Boy."

And so the Golden Boy was born.

——————————————————

The Golden Boy, named Raphael, or Raph, by his close animal yokai companions. Since he and his father lived in the mountains, there were no other beings like him around, so he befriended the nearby yokai instead. All day he played around in the wilderness, doing activities not even an average man could do.

He wrestled with bears, cut down trees, and ran through the mountain ranges by eight years old. He had superhuman abilities. Of course, he is destined for greatness. In honor of his strength and bravery, his father wrapped a ruby cloth around his head, the same one from when he was born.

Now as an adolescent his mind is much more mature; his sense of justice greater than anything else about him.

On a clear afternoon day in the mountains, Raphael collects firewood for his father. Since he is older, his strength multiplied, enabling him to do actions deemed impossible. Instead of using an axe like normal adolescents, he uses only his bare hand.

While he gathered the wood, a barrage of laughter nearby throws him off-guard. Curious, he slowly stalks up to the commotion, peering through the branches of the trees.

Up ahead, it seems to be a group of soldiers laughing at a citizen. They push and mock the poor person, having no empathy for them.

Raphael did not tolerate any form of disrespect towards innocent people; the soldiers needed to face the consequences. Holding one of the pieces of firewood in his palm, he crushes it, shattering the material into shards. He aims the woodchips at the soldiers' backs, throwing them accurately.

The soldiers, now upset from the attack, look up into the mountains, searching for the one who assaulted them. They sprint off, forgetting about the person they ridiculed earlier.

"Are you ok? Those soldiers were really annoying." The teenager asks, adjusting the basket on his back. He tilts his head slightly, concern evident on his face.

"Yes. thank you. I would have pulled my hair out if they continued." They cross their arms, letting their eyes wander to the fading bodies of the soldiers.

"What's worse is that they can say you're guilty of murder just throwing a rock at them," Raph states in slight embarrassment.

The victim nods in agreement smiling a little, "Yeah otherwise I would have given them a good punch or two." They reach into their pocket, opening their fist to reveal something wrapped in leaves and bamboo. "The soldiers saw me eating these earlier and kept begging for some. But since you saved me from their endless whining I'll give you the last one." They place the food into the boy's hands, turning around to head home.

"My name's Raph." The turtle impulsively introduces himself, a blank expression present on his face.

The other looks back, amusement present in their eyes. "Y/n."

While the distance between them gets larger, Raph opens the package, revealing a set of rice cakes; the white dessert similar to the color of daises that grow during this time of the year.

——————————————————

As spring turns to summer, June arrives as the rainy season of the year for most of the nation begins. With rain comes storms, and with storms comes lightning. On one of the nights, heavy rainfall starts an uproar in the mountains, causing minor flooding from the river.

Golden Boy and his father sit in the main room of their cottage, a dim fire lighting up the space. The rat man sips tea and munches some rice crackers, calm compared to the howling winds outside. His son sits across from him, shifting uncomfortably.

"Is there something wrong, my son?" The father asks, laying down lazily.

"Yeah. I'm just worried about my friends. What if they get hurt?!" Raph suddenly breaks, shattering the teacup he held.

"I wouldn't worry so much. We Japanese can endure any storm that comes towards us!" The adult starts to snooze, closing his eyes.

"No. I'm not gonna rest until I know they're all safe!" He leaves the house and heads toward all his friends' living spaces. The rain splatters all over him, but he doesn't give it thought, only focusing on the possible danger.

First, he heads to the bunny yokai's house, knocking on the door. "Bunny, bunny, are you safe and well?"

A muffled reply comes from inside, "Yes I am, go to the others now."

As Raph continued on his mission, everybody seemed to be safe, but crying from the nearby woods alerted him. His body flipped towards it, like a primal instinct. When he arrived, a Tanuki yokai was crying and frantically pushing on a tree log.

"Help! A tree fell down while I was walking home and then someone pushed me out of the way! Now they're stuck!" It babbled, pointing at the wood.

"Raph? Is that you? Only one of my legs is stuck, just lift it up for me to crawl out." From the other side of the large debris, a voice speaks, seemingly familiar.

Shakily Raph speaks, his hands quivering in worry. "Yeah, it's me. Here, go help them while I lift it." He squats down, hooking his hands under the heavy log, and lifts it with ease, letting Y/n crawl out from beneath.

"Ugh, I am definitely not going to walk home with this leg." They cringe, lightly tracing their fingers over the injury.

As Tanuki helps them stand up, Raph stands in silence, his eyes wide in panic. They need help immediately. He picks them up abruptly looking down at Tanuki. "We'll follow you home, and then I'll take them to their house."

"Oh, it's ok. The storm is getting worse and you guys have done so much already."

"In this weather, I don't think anyone should be traveling home alone. Not unless you're Mr.Golden Boy here."

——————————————————

As Tanuki entered their house, Raph starts to walk again, softly gripping Y/n's clothes.

"Do you know which way my house is from here?”

"Yeah, but that leg of yours...Don't you think you need someone to help you do some things?" His eyes focus on a certain direction, almost in a trance-like state.

"I guess, but if I have a cane or crutches I'll probably be fine."

"What if you're not fine?! What if you fall down and hurt your leg even more?" He bursts, stopping his movement.

Y/n sighs, a small frown forming on their face. "Raph, you're irrational here. I'll be fine, I promise."

"No! It's my job to keep these mountains safe, to keep you safe. I don't want anybody around here to be hurt, especially you!" He runs onto a different path, a few tears escaping from his eyes.

"Raph, listen to me. Take me home, I'll be fine." They grab onto his arms for support, terrified at the speed.

He doesn't listen and only runs faster, his feet kicking up mud.

——————————————————

The morning after the incident, Y/n lays in Raph's bed, their leg bandaged to a stick. They blankly stare up at the ceiling, hearing a few pots and plates clattering together.

The sliding door opens, and Raph walks in, he holds a tray of food. “Hey, I brought you some food.” He kneels down and places the food next to him, careful he doesn’t spill anything.

“Thanks.” The injured one replies, their tone clear of any emotion. They sit up and grab one of the dishes, eating slowly.

After a few moments of silence, they ask, “When will you let me go home?”

“Uhh…When I know you’re ok.”

“I think I’m ok, Raph. I didn’t lose a lot of blood or anything: just heavy bruising and my leg being broken.”

“Nope. I’m not going to budge, you’re staying here with me until you can run again.”

They don’t answer, thinking how they could convince the stubborn boy somehow. When they finish eating, they lay back down. Raph takes the tray, his tail swaying slightly.

When he enters the room once more, he sits beside the futon.

“Can I go visit my friends?” They question him, determined to break his hard shell (pun not intended).

It doesn’t even take a second before he flatly states, “On your own? Not until you can walk. In a few weeks I’ll carry you to them though.”

Realizing they can’t bargain any further, they close their eyes, trying to sleep despite waking up not too long ago. But the shuffle of blankets forces them to snap their eyes open. Raph lays down beside them, snuggling close.

“You’re probably lonely, right? So I’ll keep you company until those few weeks are over.”

——————————————————

"Dear sir, may I hire your son to join our forces?" A mysterious man requests, his posture straight and proud.

Across from him is the rat man, who only frowns. "How do I know you even are a part of the army?" His tail swishes behind him menacingly, similar to a cat.

"I am one of the great generals of the Minamoto clan. I assure you, your son will be surrounded by the best swordsmen of the nation." The stranger introduced himself, revealing the crest stitched onto his clothing.

The father thinks to himself for a moment, before slowly announcing, "Fine, but before the final decision. I shall speak with my son."

"I will return at noon tomorrow." The general stands up and leaves the cottage, clutching his weapon.

——————————————————

"Y/n, will you go with me to Kamakura? I got recruited by one of the generals and I..." Raph hesitates, unsure if he should confess his feelings. "I don't want to be alone, and you're the person I want to be with every day." His eyes stare at Y/n's in hope, wanting them to accept his proposal.

"Hm...I do want to see the capital, and it is getting boring around here." They state to themselves, crossing their arms in the process. "Fine, but only if I can come back once in a while. Oh and no keeping me trapped in a house for most of the day."

The turtle grins in glee and hugs them tight, his tail wagging. “We’re gonna be together forever!”

And so the next day they followed the general to the capital, Kamakura. Where Golden Boy became a honorable shōgun with his companion always right by his side.

Together forever, right?

One of the more lighter Yandere things I’ve written.

This was mostly completed 2 days before but I procrastinated the last two paragraphs.

I was obsessed with Japanese folklore as a kid to the point I could recite some lines by memory.

Okay 🙄 adrenaline junkie Graves (DO NOT EAT THJS TUMBLR I SWEAR)

https://www.instagram.com/reel/C90DTZAibuI/?igsh=MWxjcm82bnp4czVudA==

He's obviously one for the adrenaline, that rush, he rides a motorcycle and he runs his own PMC.

So I can imagine, growing up when he couldn't ride a motorcycle and be in the military, he definitely did biking like this ☝️

And he definitely does it when he's on leave, worries his husband to DEATH because every video they watch of it, it's STRESSFUL. They don't have to see his work, but seeing the go-pro footage 😥😥😥

But I can imagine he does it with some of his friends from highschool and maybe a few shadows that might do it. Civilian life makes him antsy now, and he needs a break no matter how badly he doesn't want to. So biking trails is his go to🙏🙏

-🥭

Definitely one of the rich people who do the craziest shit for the adrenaline rush. Fuck pickleball or wine tasting, he jumping out of planes and wrestling alligators.

I feel like he was one of those kids who lived in a small town with very little to do so he just did the craziest things to pass time. He just never grew out of it.

He has a lot of responsibilities but that doesn't stop him from letting loose and enjoying himself. It's definitely crazy his life is high stress and he still enjoys the most dangerous activities. Being his husband doesn't really make you understand him more just worries you tenfold.

He send pictures and videos of his activities, laughing his head off while you watch in terror.

This man won't sit still, always planning on what to do next and recruiting Shadows or calling up old buddies to tag along.

He also gives me the vibes, he'd hike for hours to camp in the middle of nowhere. He'd bring his husband once, just for him to jump at every little noise.

Ooh. Details?

Okay so, Oroku Karai, right?

Huga and Saki's daughter, the heir of the Foot Clan. She was raised by Goro and Blaze, two high-standing members of the Foot. Her whole life, she was told her mother was a traitor who killed her father. She's raised to lead her Clan to glory under the watch of their deity, and has the support of her lovely girlfriend, Shinigami, as well as her adoptive guardians, the whole way.

One day, her mother is captured, and Goro summons the ghost of her father to possess her. She finally gets to meet Higa, and he adores her. He reassures her that there's nothing she could do to disappoint him, and the stories he spins about Saki makes her wish she could talk to her mother too.

Higa wants her at her side at all times. He trusts her. She kills a failed enforcer on his orders, ghey do some recruiting work at a Yokai festivity together, she finds out Saki adopted four yokais, and she finally meets their deity, Krang. She learns more about her Clan, and though some stuff is... alarming, her father is quick to soothe her worries.

And then, Saki wrestles control from Higa. 'She' screams that Higa doesn't love 'her', how the Foot will cause the end of the world, and then begs Karai to go with the Turtles. In her horror, she accepts to help them free their father (oh yeah, because turns out Hamato Saki is a trans man), and they're able to exorcise Higa from Saki.

And that one moment of human decency costs her everything.

She goes from being the respected heir of her Clan to hated by everyone around her. Splinter hates her due to being a symbol of the control and abuse Higa exercised over his brother, Leo, Raph, Donnie and Mikey hate her due to her former association with the Shredder, April and Casey hate her due to the hand she played in the suffering of their friends, Zia hates her for beating her in the Battle Nexus, Draxum hates her in part due to her beating his daughter and in part because she's human, and Ronin hates her because her alternate self caused the Apocalypse. The only ones willing to talk to her without any sort of animosity are Renet, who knows how this all ends anyway, and Saki, who she can't talk to at first because the others won't let her. The only reason she's even allowed in the clinic is because Splinter is trying to be the bigger person and not leave a teenage cult survivor vulnerable.

She's alone for a while: she doesn't have anyone to support her, and it takes forever until she's able to talk to Saki. And the first time it happens, it's not even one-on-one, an opportunity to get to know her other father: it's him giving his side of his story, what happened for him to go from 'One of two possible heirs of the Hamato Clan' to 'Possessed by the ghost of my dead husband the Shredder' with a détour through the night where the turtles where mutated.

When she finally gets to talk with Saki one-on-one, he outright cries in relief that she doesn't look like Higa. They talk about it, and tells her that unfortunately, he can't make everyone else stop hating her. The most he can do is ask his sons and brother to give her a chance. (Luckily he does, and at least everyone stops glaring at her during dinner now).

The bonding episodes with Karai are less "the boys get to know her while having fun" like with Zia, and more "the boys come to terms with the fact that Karai is Actually A Person with feelings" while Karai has to come to terms with how she has been kind of horrible to them. But she apologizes for her mistakes, and everyone gradually warms up to her. It just means that they go from 'arctic cold' to 'room temperature'. At least, Saki loves her as much as he loves his boys, and is more than eager to help her figure out who she is outside of the Foot.

And this isn't even the end of it! This is just the first half of Season 5! During the second half, she meets her grandma (aka the woman who drove Saki to join the Foot in the first place), Shinigami confronts her over her betraying the clan, her adoptive guardians now more or less want her dead, her entire Clan wants her dead... it's a mess.

The Feast of Sir Ranceval, Lunamire

November 11, Y356 (Game session 8/11/2023)

On a vibrant November day, illuminated by the sun's brilliance and adorned with the enchanting dance of snow flurries, the adventurers find themselves amid an epic celebration in their hometown. The village bustles with anticipation, and townspeople prepare for the revelry by setting tables outdoors in the various alleys and thoroughfares, hanging banners, lighting candles, and bringing out home-cooked dishes. Burgomaster Mirela Rusu walks through the village warmly embracing the locals and thanking them for making the day so special. Her resonant voice carries the significance of the feast, a treasured tradition that reveres the end of the war while honoring her late husband, Sir Ranceval.

As the sun climbs higher in the sky, the villagers gather in the squares, their hunger stirred by the delicious scents wafting from heaping platters of roasted root vegetables, sausages, pies, and freshly baked bread. After a heartfelt address, Mirela toasts the warrior hero, and everyone indulges in a sumptuous lunch, relishing in the freely flowing beer served up by Brother Kuzma. Laughter, camaraderie, and music fill the air as old friends catch up and new acquaintances are made.

In the afternoon, the mood shifts to excitement as the games of skill and combat begin. The paladins and villagers participate in various contests that form the core of the festivities. These games are not just displays of talent but also opportunities for villagers to bond with the abbey's recruits and forge lasting connections.

An archery contest kicks off the competition, with participants aiming at targets set at varying distances. Marcus Vossmeyer's unerring aim leads him to triumph in the archery contest, his arrows finding their mark with uncanny precision. The winning prize is a trio of blessed arrows (+1 arrows).

The wrestling match follows, testing strength and agility. Many compete for victory in good-natured bouts of strength and dexterity. Ever-charismatic, Valeriu Vodalescu garners laughter from onlookers when he is bested by the elderly Burgomaster herself. "I still got it!" she declares, helping the paladin to his feet.

Brother Celestian wins the wrestling competition, besting everyone with finesse and grace. He is handed a potion of strength.

Sometime later, the paladin heroes join forces with fellow villagers in a heated tug-of-war. Their collective strength allows them to triumph and earn their place among the victors. The group wins a night of feasting and entertainment at the Silver Hearth.

The eagerly awaited sword-fighting contest follows with expectant cheers from the crowd. Though Valeriu puts up a good fight, he is bested by Percival Donner, whose prowess with the blade earns him accolades from the villagers. The grand prize is an exquisitely crafted silver stiletto, deadly against the undead. (+1 Silver Stiletto of Undead Slaying, +1 to hit, and +3 damage to undead. Otherwise, this weapon is a normal stiletto doing 1d3dmg vs S/M, and 1d2 vs L).

As the day turns to evening, the feast culminates in a solemn procession to Sir Ranceval's mausoleum, located by the water's edge. The parade is serene and reverent, with villagers holding candles to honor their fallen hero.

During the procession, connections deepen. Charming and beautiful songstress Alara clings to Val's arm, making him forget his prior invitation to the baker's daughter. The timid girl trails behind them–her cheeks blazing with embarrassment.

Sensing something is amiss, Celestian takes a moment to comfort her.

Val isn't the only one who garners female attention. Marcus, the winner of the archery contest, finds common ground with Talia, the capable daughter of the ferrymen. And Percival accompanies Laffira (Laffi), the ex-burgomaster's daughter, who appears to have a crush on him.

The peaceful atmosphere turns unexpectedly frightful when a wounded young man dressed in priestly robes trudges toward them through the mirky water. The boy's eyes widen with dread before he collapses face-first into the water. A moment later, he rises again and croaks, "Help..."

Sir Brandrak moves quickly to help him, but the young man breathes his last breath before he can be healed. A closer inspection reveals severe wounds, possibly caused by the jaws of an alligator and the holy symbol of the Cult of Ezra around his neck.

The procession hurries back to the village where Sir Brandak identifies the dead boy as Shaman Brucian's acolyte from the town of Marais d' Tarrascon.

With the village's celebration drawing to a sudden close, the paladins swiftly deduce from the acolyte's condition and his dying words that some awful fate has befallen their closest neighbors.

All party members gain 450xp this session for excellent roleplay.

Kokopi Kopi was originally from Thanalan, traveling and eventually settling in Ul’dah with her older brothers after their parents were killed by beasts in the wild. While her brothers went to fight in the gladiator ring for glory, Kokopi took on less honorable work as an information broker and occasional thief for anyone who paid. It was through this that she eventually was recruited as smuggler and spy for the infamous Lolorito, although she never met him.

On one of her later missions, Kokopi was sent to Limsa Lominsa to assist with yet another “trading opportunity” operation. However, she fell in love with La Noscea and the sea. She decided to abandon her job, hoping that her overseers would assume her dead, and signed up to join a crew of pirates. It wasn’t an easy transition, but her knack for maps and navigating made her irreplaceable.

It was while she sailed the seas that she met a fellow Lalafell pirate named Mokoko Mochikoko, whom she fell in love with and would later marry. After several years at sea, Mokoko and Kokopi returned to shore for a brief supply run. However, while they were at dock, a fire suddenly erupted on deck, exploding several barrels of gunpowder and gravely injuring her. No one knew what had caused it, but she had a deep-seeded fear that her previous employer had put out a hit on her.

Permanently burned and partially crippled from the incident, Kokopi decided not to return to sea. Instead she settled in at Wadewick Landing, Mokoko's hometown, and her husband continued his voyages while she remained – in her mind – mostly in hiding. Despite her private fears, Kokopi remains a stern and inyielding woman, strict but not without empathy … most days.

Mokoko Mochikoko was born into a long line of pirates in Wadewick Landing, a small fishing town inhabited mainly by thieves or retired-thieves-turned-fishermen. A wildcard with a big heart, he joined the first crew of pirates that he could and was ready to live and die at sea, wind in his face and great axe in hand.

When he met Kokopi, however, that giant heart of his won over his original dreams – and then piracy was declared illegal, and that sort of took all the wind out of his sails. He is a large knot of muscle with a thick beer gut in his late age, often spending his twilight years in the tavern arm-wrestling anyone who dares to try. All of his emotions run high, and he can be cursing one moment and sobbing the next. He has a soft spot for his wife and his beloved kids, and absolutely forgets that Meiko and A’kihiko aren’t his own blood.

Gellert wasn’t entirely sure what has brought him out onto the cobblestoned streets so late into the evening. He had felt restless, not ready to return to Nurmengard so soon after we had met with some new recruits to their movement. He had been laying low for a long time, wary since the Ministries were on the look out for him once again and weary that Albus Dumbledore was going to move against him again. With the troth broken, there was nothing to stop him from making a direct move against him instead of sending his little chess pieces.

It was easy to get lost in the Muggle world. No one would recognise him and their endless chatter, while irritating, held none of the serious threats the wizarding world faced. War was coming to them once more but they didn’t know that yet. Soon the Muggle world would not be so peaceful but it was threat from their own kind.

He had just turned a corner and wondered if he should slip into a bar for a drink or two before he paused. His fingers immediately went to reach for his wand, wondering if this man had followed him here and if this was where he planned to take a stand. He would have ducked into a doorway but he had been stopped before he could.

“Albus.” Gellert nodded, keeping a safe distance from him. “What a surprise to see you away from your sanctuary.” He didn’t take out his wand but it was within grasp if he felt an attack was coming.

     The  last  person  Albus  expected  to  see  tonight  was  the  ex  'husband',  but  Albus  supposed  the  universe  was  having ��a  go  at  him,  daring  the  Hogwarts  headmaster  to  keep  to  his  word.  The  last  time  they  had  spoken,  tensions  were  at  their  peak.  Not  so  far  removed  from  the  incident  in  Bhutan,  there  was  no  way  their  last  meeting  would  be  without  its  share  of  painful  words  and  declarations.  Vitriol  was  spit  from  both  ends  with  each  wizard  making  promises  to  do  what  they  must.  It  was  Albus  himself  that  drew  enemy  lines,  firmly  declaring  the  next  meeting  would  be  on  sight.  Even  out  here  amongst  Muggles,  Albus  found  his  hand  twitching.  There  were  couples  walking  by,  but  they  became  mere  blurs  in  the  moment  as  Albus  wrestled  with  ruining  his  night  by  having  to  keep  his  word.

     "  I  step  away  quite  often  yet  people  are  always  so  surprised.  "    He  vanished;  apparated  to  the  park  nearby.  He  trusted  Gellert  was  smart  enough  to  follow  if  he  so  desired  but  some  part  of  him  hoped  not.  Please  leave...  Don’t  follow  my  trace...  he  found  himself  thinking.  Out  here...  with  no  one  but  the  stars,  there'd  be  no  reason  not  to  draw  wands  this  time.

CRIMSON CRESCENT

more wrestling ocs!! a found family heel/tweener faction thats led by a joshi vet whos feared and respected in a Minoru Suzuki kinda way, more info under the cut!

Origin: Crimson Crescent was formed out of a feud between Yukiko and a faction she had beef with. FUMI-HIRO was part of the group but betrayed them for her (Yuki being an old friend and rival) and in the same night Egusa Toshiaki would make his return to the ring (which was a pretty big deal at the time) to aid them, making the three the core and founding members of CC. In the following years they‘d recruit younger talent, i hopes of aiding their quest of uplifting the wrestling business outside the rules.

the members:

Yukiko Fanucci (fka YUKIKOH) a fierce and intimidating woman ever since she stepped a foot into the business. Starting as a frustrated angry brat, picking fights with anyone and everyone, always having a point to proof. Over the years the respect she earned gave her some room to breathe and mature. One source of stability came in the form of a rival, who down the line becomes her husband - despite being married they stay in opposite corners most of the time, both leading their own factions. Nowadays Yukiko is a cheerful sadistic lass that simply enjoys the beautiful violence of wrestling, egging on the younger generation to become even better than her.

Egusa Toshiaki, a friend of Yukiko since ages now, they debuted around the same time, started off as overly competitive brats that earned each others respect through several clashes, they held tag titles together in the earlier part of their career. They consider each other as family, Egusa and his partner being uncles for Yukikos child.

Fumi-Hiro, an old angry manlet, he’s loud and proud in everything he does and absolutely not compensating for his height. Fumi’s an established jr heavyweight wrestler who’s very prevalent in the deathmatch scene. - Him and Yukiko had a heated rivalry in the past which boiled down to who has the bigger ego, nowadays they laugh about it and are a splendid duo, both have overly vicious styles, them tagging against you is the last thing you want if you value your life. - Outside of wrestling he works in his daughters restaurant, his actual pride and joy (Yuki and Fumi probably bond the most over how much they love their kids, their kids bond over having heel wrestlers as parents which are feared in the whole business but actually are big dorks)

Aatami is a tall finnish lad in his 30s, rather quiet but nevertheless threatening. They are a heavyweight wrestler and tag with Egusa a lot. His career started in the european and uk indies, and an opportunity got them to wrestle in Japan, where they are based now. — Being in the same ring as Aatami is enough to give people chills, he has an off putting cold demeanour that barely ever cracks. Don’t mistake their attitude for indifference tho, his work in the ring is his biggest passion, nothing makes them happier than freaking out their opponents and making them submit to his impressive catalogue of technical wrestling.

KOZUE, a rising joshi star from Okinawa who has a background in karate. Her interest in wrestling made her move to mainland Japan, where she ended up getting mentored by Yukiko. After her debut went on her own, wanting to make a name for herself in the scene, hoping to get her teachers attention again like that - and she didnt stay unacknowledged for long. Yukiko challenged her protege and won their violent bought, but invited Kozue to continue learning while fighting on the same side, making her the 5th CC member. — Some would describe Kozue as entitled, she calls it “knowing what im worth.” People associate her with a petty princess who looks down on others, and yeah she tends to not think highly of most lol - in matches Kozue is the personification of “fighting spirit”, she would rather pass out than give up, more often than not crosses her own limits. She avoids relying on cheating but isn’t afraid of using dirty tricks - she excuses it with simply being smart. — The guys in the group didnt give her an easy time at first, they werent convinced that she isnt just an entitled brat that’s taking advantage of Yukikos hospitality, but Kozue pretty quickly proved that she isnt taking anything for granted. They get along splendidly now - Kozue can very much hold her ground but that doesnt stop especially Toshi and Fumi from acting like defensive dads sometimes.

Nikolai. 26, swedish, bastard, queer. A loud juniorweight wrestler with mean kicks and an even meaner attitude. After establishing himself in mainland Europes wrestling scene came to Japan, working all over the place and causing chaos. Just like Kozue he got challenged by Yukiko, and also just like Kozue he couldn’t quite defeat her, but found a place in this odd lil family. It didn’t take long for him to get along with everyone, he already knew Aatami, formed a tag team with KOZUE and reminds the seniors of the group of their own eager attitude back in the day. — Nikolai’s the current jr champ of CCs home promotion, defending the title with whatever’s necessary. Nik’s a cheerful but cocky lad, with some unresolved business back at home,,, a certain former tag partner, which he’s trying to ignore, will catch up with him sooner than later 👀

special mention: Yukikos son Akio Fanucci, better known under his pseudonym AIKO, a young illustrator, not a wrestler! he's part of CC by the virtue of his mother being the leader lol - Aiko creates a lot of promotional material and merch for the wrestling company CCs based at. - He's been surrounded by wrestling since he was born, isnt unathletic, but competitive combat was never sth he wanted to get into. On first glance he seems like a quiet person, despite his alternative appearance, but when you get to know him its clear that he's the kid of two no bs taking hardasses.

So the faction basically is a mom, two dads, the queer uncle and two brats — they do whatever they want and their allegiance is only to each other :]

[volterran-wine]

Ok for everyone here.

Who would be able to win a fight against a highly aggressive raging newborn?

I think Athenodora and Caius plus Felix and maybe Santiago. Don't know maybe even Aro and Marcus? All Royals?

Who would be able to manage a newborn out of all control?

Oh and I mean a fist fight. No talents allowed.

𝐀𝐫𝐨: Oh I would get my head ripped off. While I am not useless in a fight I am no soldier the way that my brothers are. While I may be able to outsmart a newborn I would not match it in strength. Caius has wrestled quite a few vampires in his time however, there is a reason why he is our general after all.

𝐂𝐚𝐢𝐮𝐬: The Volturi has in fact not had many newborns in the palazzo with us, usually we send them off to a trusted coven removed from civilisation in order for them to calm down if we wish to recruit them. I can however subdue a newborn if I must.

𝐀𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐝𝐨𝐫𝐚: In the early days it was me and my husband that took care of newborn recruits, they were far more common when our coven was in its infancy.

𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐬: I as well can handle a newborn, but these days I'd rather not.

—

𝐅𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐱: As head of the guard I have clashed with newborns in all sorts of state minds, bot the terrified and feral. I could kill one if I truly wanted to, luckily I have Santiago with me these days so we can avoid that.

𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐨: We do not always go in for the kill these days, but some newborns are simply so lost they will not calm down for anything. Those days fucking suck.
