#i feel like- a mom or something telling a daughter/son that they're like the man they don't like or despise is very fucked up

[palskippah]

Hi!

Thinking about the differences between both Goldenheart babies and the relationship with their fathers ajsdkas there's some other drawings under the cut :y

(love when artists make different fankids from the same ship interact ajsdk)

-Btw he/they pronouns for both fankids asjdkd

-Baby has beautiful dark eyes (got the eye-shape from Ambrosius and the 🥺 energy from Ballister) and Cyrus got 'stares into your soul' eyes (got the blue from Ambrosius, and the intense staring from Ballister)

-Also, see that Baby is taller than Ballister (like Movie Ambrosius is) and Cyrus is shorter than Ballister (like Comic Ambrosius is) waa

-Also, I've been thinking that maybe the 'Baby' nickname was given by Ambrosius, and that's why Cyrus doesn't have it, because his fathers hadn't been too close during the pregnancy, mainly because Ballister hadn't wanted them to be.

>Comic Ambrosius referred to him as Baby once and Ballister stopped that right away with 'his name is going to be Cyrus, don't call him Baby'.

>Movie Ambrosius called him Baby once, given the lack of a name from before they had even known that he was a boy, and it just stuck right away.

-Comic Cyrus' reaction is based over the phrase 'when I remember I'm my father's daughter' that I saw once in a meme 😭

>Ballister said it just as a passing thought, but it didn't leave Cyrus' mind for years.

>Also, he's been hearing stuff from both Nimona and Ballister since he was a little kid, and that really warped his perception on Ambrosius.

>(Y'know with like the smallest of comments made by an adult about someone else, it can stay forever?) Ballister had thrown some comments that he didn't think twice about, and didn't think that Cyrus would pay much mind at either, BUT THEY DID and yeah

>I find it so interesting how easy it is to plague a kid's mind with stuff, even if unintentionally 🧍 (also I love how that was used in the Nimona movie WA)

-And Movie Baby's reaction is when you're compared to someone you deeply admire ajsdaj

>After that, they'd occasionally think about his abba (the most trustworthy of sources) saying that they were a lot like Ambrosius.

-Random thought but Baby's love language is being an annoying little shit. He could pretend to box with Ballister when he's busy working on something (not interrupting him, mind you, he's a good son). Or be like 'daddy. daddy. daddy. daddy. Papa. Dad. Father. Progenitor-' while Ambrosius' like 'what? what? what. what. what do you want? what is it? One more and I'll smack you. I warned you (pretends to smack him)' and then Baby says I wanted to say I love you :C and Ambrosius' like oh, love you too son <3

-I drew this thing to see the differences between both asjdk it mostly being that in their movie version it was always teamwork, and in the comic version it was all Ballister (+ Nimona, but the point is that Ambrosius wasn't there to parent too) (thinking if that'd be because Ballister didn't want him around or what, I don't know🧍)

That's it! :D

"I frew up" /blurb/

AN: i seen a tiktok where a 26 yr old man wanted to go tell his mom after he threw up and got inspired to do this in a fan fiction. except make the son a daughter and the mom, harry. hope you enjoy and make sure to leave your feedback!!!

This story contains: throw up, fatherly comfort, fluff, mentions of pregnancy

{ dadrry - husbandrry - soft!harry - au!harry - Josie age 20 }

word count- 1,369

Josie wakes up to a tummy ache and after getting sick, decides to wake her dad up because she seeks his comfort in her time of illness.

Josie, your twenty-year-old daughter, is back home from college for a few days, and you and Harry are thoroughly enjoying this time with her. As your first child, she will always be your baby. Although her college commitments mean she is not home as frequently, your house is far from quiet. You and Harry have three other children who are still in school: Lily, who is thirteen, Jax, who is nine, and Sarah, your youngest at six years old.

----------------------------

Although Josie is an adult capable of taking care of herself, it doesn't imply that she doesn't want to seek comfort from her father when she unexpectedly falls ill during the night. Since childhood, her father has been her go-to person for comfort, whether she had a scraped knee or a stomachache. While Josie has a deep affection for her mother, Y/n often becomes anxious in matters concerning her children's health. In contrast, Harry has consistently maintained a calm demeanor.

After puking in the hall bathroom, Josie quietly leaves so her younger siblings don't awake and heads toward her parents' room. She refrains from knocking, certain that they are both asleep. If she had heard any movement from inside, she would have knocked, because she wishes to avoid accidently walking in on her parents having sex. That thought alone makes her feel nauseous once again.

As Josie carefully enters the darkened bedroom, she makes her way towards Harry's side of the bed. The faint illumination from the streetlights outside prevent the room from being entirely dark. When she arrives at the bed, she notices her father sleeping on his side, facing away from the middle, with her mother cuddled against his back. Josie thinks it's lovely that her parents continue to share such affection while they sleep.

She's hesitant to disturb her father, yet her need for his comfort is undeniable at this moment. Her stomach still feels uncomfortable, and she's unsure whether it's due to something she ate or a stomach bug. Josie gently taps his shoulder, which is protruding from the covers, in an effort to wake him. Years of experience as a parent have made Harry quick to awaken at the slightest touch from one of his children, or his wife for that matter.

With a sudden gasp, Harry awakens to see his daughter Josie positioned next to the bed. Now that she's older, it's been a considerable amount of time since she's awakened either of her parents in such a way. As a result, her unexpected appearance causes him to worry that something significant might be wrong. "Hm, Josie sweetheart, what's the matter?" he asks gently, mindful of not waking his wife who lies behind him.

Matching his quiet tone, Josie answers in a childlike voice, "I frew up."

Harry sits upright on the edge of the bed, rubbing his eyes to regain clarity of vision, and rises to guide his daughter out of their bedroom. Once they're in the hallway, he slowly murmurs, "Awe, poor baby. Is your stomach still botherin' you? Do you feel like you might be sick again?"

All she can do is nod as Harry leads her back into the bathroom, ensuring the door closes behind them. Once inside, Josie is struck by a new wave of nausea. Her face becomes clammy with a cold sweat, and her mouth fills with saliva. As she kneels in front of the toilet, Harry's quick to grab a washcloth, running it under cold water. Just as she begins dry heaving, her father kneels beside her, placing the cold cloth on the back of her neck.

"Shh, everything's alright. Daddy's gonna take care of you." Harry doesn't think about the fact that his daughter, now twenty, woke him from his sleep to tell him she'd threw up. His thoughts are solely on the fact that, regardless of her age, she will always be his little girl. She will always seek comfort in him. Even if she were to wake him when she's forty, he'd be there for her, just as he was when she was a small child.

After experiencing her second bout of vomiting tonight, Josie's stomach has calmed enough for her to sit up and take a moment to breathe. Harry reaches over to flush the toilet and stays close to her, until she tells him otherwise. Turning her head to her right, Josie catches sight of her father, who is looking at her with a mixture of genuine concern and love.

"Thank you, dad. I didn't want to wake you up but I needed your comfort. Sorry, I'm probably too old to have woke you because I got sick."

Shaking his head in disagreeance, Harry replies, "Never too old, darlin'. Even when you're old and grey, I'll be right beside you whenever you fall ill, as long as m' still here. I do have a question though."

"Yeah?"

"Do you have any idea why you're unwell tonight? Is it somethin' you ate, or is there a chance that, you know, you could be pregnant?" Harry's cautious not to jump to conclusions, but he acknowledges that his daughter is at an age where pregnancy is a possibility if she so desires. Given her college status, he suspects that if she took after him and her mother during their time at university, she may not be entirely innocent.

Gasping in shock, Josie swiftly clarifies, "No Dad, I am not pregnant. It's likely just a stomach bug or something of that nature." She's not mad at her father for asking such a question. Even though she prefers not to discuss her experiences with her parents, she acknowledges that she's no longer a virgin. But, she has always been smart enough to ensure that her partner uses protection. Though she envisions having children in the future, she's not ready for that commitment at the age of twenty while pursuing her studies in college.

"Alright, alright. Not accusin' you of being pregnant. But if you were, just know it would be okay and your mum and I would be very happy for you."

"Thank you, but again, I'm not pregnant." his daughter repeats. "Can you help me back to bed? I think I feel better now."

"Of course." Harry helps her to her feet from the hard bathroom floor, placing the damp cloth in the dirty basket, and escorts her back to the room she's staying in. Josie settles back into the bed and Harry hurries off to retrieve some tablets that might soothe her upset stomach.

He comes back shortly, assisting her in sitting up to take the medication with a glass of water. After ensuring she's comfortable, he leans down to kiss her forehead and mutters softly, "If you need anythin', whether from me or your mother, please wake us up. No matter how old you become, you will always be our baby."

Nodding, Josie whispers, "Love you, dad."

"Love you too, Josie."

Leaving his daughters room, Harry returns down the hallway to the bedroom he shares with his wife. He's convinced that he's managed to leave without her waking, but as he reenters the bed, Y/n is quick to ask, "Where'd you go? Missed you."

He maneuvers closer to Y/n's body and explains, "Josie woke me up to tell me she'd thrown up. I accompanied her to the bathroom and she got sick again. I think she's fine now. Gave her some medicine. It's likely just a stomach bug. Hope the rest of our kids don't catch it."

Y/n softly expresses, "Awwwe, her waking you up to inform you she puked reminds me of when she was five. I long for the days when she was just a little girl. She's grown up so much now."

As Harry leans in to embrace his wife more closely, he remarks, "I know, was surprised she still sought out her daddy's comfort when she felt sick. It makes me feel quite emotional just thinkin' 'bout it. However, we are fortunate to have Sarah. She's still at an age where she relies on us for many aspects of her life. I hope she remains a child for as long as possible. I'll miss feelin' needed."

Y/n smiles in response to her husband's sincere words and allows the comfortable silence to help lull her back to sleep, along with her husbands embrace. Then not before long, sleep also begins to take over Harry once more.

The Adventures Of Joe Superfly

I haven't been able to work on Chicken Salad War much recently -- it's less writer's block and more a confluence of issues that mean when I have the time I'm too tired for something novel-sized. It's temporary, but when I don't get to write I do start to get restless.

So the other night as I was doing dishes I circled around to a small issue that keeps nipping at me, which is Ephraim. He's got the most normal name of any of the Ramblers, which is uncharacteristic of Ceece and Tully. Well, I thought, maybe they let Eddie name him, but why would they let Eddie, the oldest, name the youngest, and not the THREE OTHERS inbetween? And why would Eddie pick Ephraim?

I decided to do up a little story about Eph, how he came by his name and what his life experiences have been. Much of it's a spoiler that needs a content warning but I figured I'd share a brief fun scene. Also it's good practice for writing Eph's somewhat elliptical style of speech; he is a man who gives no unnecessary context, and sometimes no necessary context. (All the context you all need to know is that Ephraim's parents wanted to name him Cherry Windward and instead Eddie named him Ephraim Prunus.)

Noah was on dishes duty with Joan, Ed's newly adopted eldest daughter, the evening that Ephraim found Ed on the porch of the royal fishing lodge. He sat next to him companionably, rocking on the porch swing and looking out at the lake.

"How many different names do you think you'll have in your life?" he asked without preamble. Ed laughed.

"I don't know. I think once you become a king the name locks in place," he said. "I've been Theophile and Ted and Ed and Eddie, and now back around to Theophile, at least in public. And then there's 'Dad' too. Why do you ask?"

Ephraim shrugged. "Monday was telling Jes about you naming me. Got to thinking about it."

"Well, you did return the favor eventually," Ed said. "Ed has suited me. Thinking of changing your name?"

"I was thinking of going by Prunus," Ephraim said, with such a deadpan expression that Ed hesitated, then burst out laughing when Eph smiled.

"Punk," he said, shoving Ephraim gently. "I only gave you that one to make mom and dad feel better about you having a normal-ass name. Man, you could see Dad's gears turning. We can always call him Pru."

Ephraim cackled. "Pru! Funny. I guess just…thanks."

"For what, big guy?" Ed asked.

"I didn't think I'd ever see Europe. Didn't think anyone outside Santa Luna would understand," Ephraim said. "But you went all over the world and found somewhere just like home. And I get to be here too. Which means maybe…I can be other places as well."

"There will always be a place for you, anywhere I am," Ed said seriously.

"Yes but also. They get it." Ephraim put on a lilting Shivadh accent. "That's Ephraim, he's King Theophile's brother, he doesn't say much but he's a good lad. No, you let Mr. Rambler alone, he's just shy. Hello young Ephraim, point out what you want to order when you're ready." He looked back out at the lake. "They're kind. I could thrive here."

"But not just yet, huh?" Ed asked. "Not with Noah leaving soon. He's going to Aotearoa and then coming to California, where you'll be."

"Yes."

"And after he graduates?" Ed asked delicately. "Maybe both of you back here?"

Ephraim turned to him. "I don't have a five year plan," he said witheringly, and this time Ed knew he was teasing.

"You son of a -- how dare you accuse me of asking you for a five year plan! Like I'm some kind of responsible adult? Roasted by my own blood!"

"You need it, Your Majesty," Ephraim said, then sobered. "I don't know yet. We'll figure it out."

"I'm sure you will."

"If you were going to name me again, what would you pick?"

Ed tousled his hair. "Buddy, you are now and forever Ephraim to me unless someday you tell me otherwise. I can't name you again. I don't think you need it, you're only just growing into that one. But if you did want a new name, I think you'd have to come up with it yourself -- or ask Noah."

Ephraim nodded thoughtfully. "I'm okay. Just curious."

"I think if you do you should move even more towards the extremes, though. From Cherry Windward to Ephraim Prunus to, I dunno, Joe Superfly."

"Joe Superfly!" Ephraim crowed. "Joe Superfly Rambler!"

"The twins should be glad we named them Edward and Miranda," Ed mused.

"Edward Superfly," Ephraim gasped.

"It's a great movie!"

"Miranda Shaft!" Ephraim blurted, and both brothers laughed until they cried.

Ooooh I have a few questions for you to keep the ball rolling! 💚

Would reader and Beau from TMH ever get married? Have a kid?

How would BMD Ben react to their daughter (as a teen/young adult) dating a guy he sees right through as an asshole/maybe a bit like Ben used to be? Would Ben ever tell his kids who/how he used to be when they grew up?

Ooh thanks, Michelle!! 💚💚💚

These are great questions, wow...

Take Me Home (Beau Arlen x Reader):

Would the reader and Beau get married? Have kids?

Oh hell yeah, they definitely would get married! In Echoes, the last one-shot I've written for them, they've just moved in together. I think at that point, she and Beau would be thinking about marriage in the future, but maybe they wouldn't talk about it with each other right away. 😂

We know how Beau is about sharing his feelings, and the reader, being burned before on an engagement and the idea of marriage, knows she loves him but would be hesitant to make that leap...

Until Beau talks to Emily about it. His daughter is more and more becoming his sounding board, since she was so supportive of their relationship from the beginning. Emily would encourage him to get remarried if that makes him happy.

Emily: You're already living together. Doesn't that mean you want to be with her for the long haul?

Beau: Well...yeah. That's just about what it means.

Emily: Then what's the problem?

He can't exactly argue with that logic. 😂 I think he'd be so excited to propose, that he wouldn't even think about the "more kids" conversation until after they're engaged. The reader would think about it first, I think, wondering if he would ever want more kids someday. And if so, is that something she wants too?

Once they actually got around to sitting down and having that honest conversation, I think both of them would be open to it in a "if it happens, it happens" sort of way. Beau would have concerns about being an "older dad," 😂 but in comforting him and reassuring him that he'd do great, because he's already a great dad...it would make the reader realize that she does want kids, and she wants them with Beau. ❤️

(Hell, maybe I'll end up writing that in the future!)

Break Me Down (Soldier Boy x Reader):

How would BMD Ben react to their daughter (as a teen/young adult) dating a guy he sees right through as an asshole/maybe a bit like Ben used to be? Would Ben ever tell his kids who/how he used to be when they grew up?

Ooh, I have an ask that I plan to answer tomorrow that covers how Ben reacts to Lila having a boyfriend or girlfriend, but your question here is even more specific! Love it!

I think if he clocked the "asshole" in Lila's new boyfriend, Ben would call him out immediately. He would try to ban her from seeing him. And when that didn't work, he would 100% threaten the guy off without her knowing.

Ben would have to try to (badly) explain to her why he doesn't trust the guy, and why he's a skeevy little bastard.

Lila: Dad, you don't even know him!

Ben: Oh, I know him. Sweetheart, I know 'em all, better than the back of my goddamn hand. He's a fucking scumbag, and you're more than too good for him. Trust me.

Lila: What do you mean?

Ben would hesitate. He wouldn't want to explain to his daughter that he knows how that asshole's mind works because he used to be exactly like that, before he met her mother.

He probably wouldn't ever want to explain it to his daughter in his own words. Likely she'd have to piece it together from stories she hears about her dad from her mom, and/or her honorary aunts and uncles (like Butcher, Hughie, Loco, and Frenchie).

With his future son, Ben will probably have more "man-to-man" real talks about how he used to get women under the realm of "dad advice." 😅 When the boy got older, Ben would admit to him that he did use to fuck around. (Putting it mildly.)

Ben: I mean, if there was an Oscar for laying it the fuck down, I would’ve taken that shit year after year. Would’ve beat out Burt Reynolds by a fucking landslide.

Son: *grossed out but still confused* Who's Burt Reynolds?

Lmao. 😆

Thank you again for these questions, friend! 💕

[inkabelledesigns]

Saw a post about crossdressing this morning and also got a message that warmed my heart, and that got me thinking about a moment where I had some gender related euphoria. So now I'm gonna tell you a story.

So about a year or two ago, my parents were out of town on a trip while I stayed home to care for my brother. And in that time, it snowed. Now, I'm a bit out of practice when it comes to shoveling, we don't get as much where we live now, but I knew I had to go shovel it so the driveway didn't become dangerous. So I went out and took care of our driveway and sidewalk. And I noticed, I was late, everyone else had already done theirs. Everyone, except for myself and my neighbor. My neighbor is an older lady, she can't get around so well. So once I finished our property, thinking I was all alone, I went and got her sidewalk cleaned up.

Well, I was not as stealthy as I'd thought. She ended up coming to the door and called out to me in thanks. And she asked me if I was my father's son. I guess she remembered that her neighbors had a son, but not that they had three daughters as well. We'd never met before, she probably didn't know I existed. Now she does, she sees me taking photos in our yard of my dolls at the very least. But there I was in my winter coat and pajama bottoms, my long hair a mess under my hat, slightly sick with a cough, being mistaken for an eldest son. When my mom called to check up on us, I told her this story, and she laughed and said she was sorry. And I couldn't help but be confused. There was nothing to be sorry for. If anything, I rather liked being mistaken for a gentleman. It likely wasn't a comment on my presentation, it was more likely a case of piecing together information incorrectly and my performing of a task that typically (but not always) a man might do. But I'd like to think maybe I was convincing regardless.

And that was the first time I really came to terms with that for myself. I don't identify as a man in the slightest, but I like being mistaken for a man. I like occasionally dressing in a way that's masculine, hell, I have a character for cosplaying that makes me feel hella handsome whenever I put him on. I aspire to voice more male characters, I have this deep voice for a woman and I want to flex it a little, push it to see what it can do. There's a friend I voice some OCs for that happen to be a couple, a man and a woman, and in this one skit where they're together, so many people don't catch on that I play both characters until they get to the credits. That is such a good feeling! What a funny thing, to be excited that you couldn't identify me as me, but genuinely, I love that just as much as I love being recognized. I have range, baby! I like feeling like a shapeshifter, that I can be anything I want, be that masculine, feminine, neutral, over the top, whatever. I've got the power to do that. There's something really freeing in that. I still feel like a woman, but it's nice to know that being a woman doesn't limit how I can present or how I'm allowed to feel about myself. I can truly be anything.

[11queensupreme11]

I was thinking of baby Percy AU again and just thought of what would happen if Poseidon just… lost her in Valhalla. There was an emergency meeting, he forgot babies shouldn’t be left alone. Left unsupervised, Percy promptly toddled off towards the sunset (the human side of Valhalla) and gets lost amongst the masses. The encounters I’m picturing:

Leonidas chilling in his hammock, reading his book and drinking his wine only to reach down (to get a refill) and grab a baby instead of a bottle. There’s a baby lost in the Sparta training grounds and this man is panicking.

Adam eating his grapes with his family only for his ears to pick up the unmistakable sound of a baby babbling nonsense. He stands immediately and, without saying a single word to his wife or sons, just runs off and comes back cradling a giggling baby which he promptly places on his lap while saying ‘our daughter now’. His family only nods and goes back to what they were doing, as if this is completely normal (it probably is)

Nikola Tesla finds a baby playing among the detritus of his last failed experiment and decides he has found a new student to teach the art of Science(tm) to. She can’t even speak yet? No matter! It’s never too early to learn! Besides, don’t you know babies’ brains are like sponges?? He can teach her so much!

Sasaki Kojiro is out there in the wilderness, becoming one with nature (or whatever it is that he does when he’s not training - is there a time when that man ever stopped?) only to all but trip over a baby lost in the woods. What does a man who only has swords in his mind do?? Why, hand her a stick and teach her how to swing it.

(Almost predictably, Lu Bu does the exact same thing except they meet on the edge of a cliff and he tells her to aim at the sky)

Qin Shi Huang finds a baby blocking his path and instead of doing something normal (like stopping to make sure she’s alright, look around for the parents maybe), simply picks her up, at once recognizes her as a princess (royalty recognizes royalty) and continues on his merry way (he’s heading towards his adoptive mom’s house to show off the new subject/little sister he picked up on the way - he’s gonna teach her everything she needs to know about ruling).

Raiden finds baby Percy in a restaurant - specifically, he finds her well-fed round little body sitting inside a (now empty) plater she had crawled inside of when no one was looking. Raiden orders another plate and the two enjoy a very pleasant lunch together before he takes her back to the sumo training area so she can watch him wrestle everyone into the ground. Percy’s clapping the whole time.

Jack finds her lost and whimpering while skulking around in dark alleyways and, being the gentleman he is, immediately kneels down to offer her a handkerchief, picking her up and looking around for any sign of the parents (lmao, just realized he’s the only one in this list alongside Leo who’s going to make his top priority be finding Percy’s guardian first)

Meanwhile, at the god’s side of Valhalla:

Hades: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU LOST HER.

Poseidon: I told her to stay put.

Hades: SHE’S A BABY POSEIDON.

Poseidon: And? I was a baby once too and followed orders perfectly.

Zeus: and look how you turned out.

(They enlist Anubis to track her down)

THE RAIDEN ONE WHERE SHE EATS EVERYTHING ON THE PLATTER AKSJFJHFBV I CAN JUST IMAGINE HER CHUBBY CHEEKS 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

and the nikola one.... i feel like she's actually grow up with more than one brain cell if nikola's the one that raises her (full offense to poseidon lol)

I LOVE EVERY SCENARIO HERE SO MUCH. THE ADAM ONE IS ACTUALLY PRETTY CLOSE TO WHAT HAPPENS IN ACT TWO LOL

i bet you after this incident, they're gonna create the "percy alert". its basically the amber alert, but it's only to look for percy lmao 💀

[bowandcurtsey]

Idk if you do crackfics but if you don't feel free to ignore this but I'd like to send in a request for headcanons for Fuego, William and nozel and their s/o making them take care of their firstborn baby. Stuff like cleaning their diapers, changing their clothes or making them burp just any baby things and the baby pees on them or throws up on them? Fuego and nozel are royals so they probably have nannies to do these things but s/o wanted the daddies to bond with their baby cuz they're always busy and things

I just love your works so much. Sending Lots of love and positive vibes for you❤️❤️

!DAD BLACK CLOVER BOYS! I love it, hehe (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

Thank you for sending them love and positive vibes huehue, I'm happy to find time to write. I was reading the Manga earlier, I just cant wait for this arc to end. I'm feeling so tired from all the fighting. ):

Characters: Fuegoleon | Nozel | William x f! reader tw: unchecked, baby mess (pee poop vomit) s/n: son's name d/n: daughter's name

Fuegoleon Vermillion

He Is hands on whether you had a nanny or not. It was only if he had no choice he would get the nanny to help.

Well your husband was a really busy man afterall, so he had to be away a lot of the time, so he was feeling a little sad about missing out on his first born's growth journey.

Thus, whenever he could, he would be doing everything. Changing clothes for her, picking out the cutest dresses or something that matches your outfit.

He wasn't really good at it, but he would change their diapers too. He didn't mind getting poop stained on his hands, or his shirt stained with pee.

"there's gonna come a day when I wouldn't be able to change her diapers anymore, honey."

You weren't complaining, cause you'll have time to rest and do your own things.

He'll have his blunders here and there, like the time when he played with the d/n too close after meal time and she vomited all over his hair.

He was really apologetic about it but d/n was smiling and laughing from all the fun, you just couldn't help but laugh as well.

As long as Fue was around when she cried, he would get up from whatever he was doing to tend to her. He would cradle her, play with her, read to her until she calmed down.

You were glad for all the help, the only downside was that he didn't ever want to leave her. Even for date nights, he would want to bring her along and sometimes it becomes family nights.

You would have to give him the eye before he would leave d/n with the nanny.

Also, 10/10 over protective dad.

Nozel Silva

He questioned on why it was necessary for him to do the cleaning up in the beginning. Because "we have the nannies for that"

And that you both could just focus on feeding, teaching, playing with s/n.

Well it was your first born and you didn't want to miss out on anything so you still did the changing and cleaning half of the time.

I mean, you still counted your blessings that you had Nann(ies) to assist you, since it was really taxing for your body after birth and you had to recover and take care of yourself AND take care of an infant at the same time. Shit was NOT EASY.

Also, your husband question whether it would really help with bonding since he never remembered his mom or dad for cleaning up after him when he was an infant. Not like anyone could remember anyway.

You kinda felt he made sense.

Until you saw Nozel unable to pacify his son and had the nannies to calm the baby.

"It's that kind of bond, Nozel." you were arguing with him about it one day.

Well, because you got him wrapped around your pinky, he had to do this hands on clean up stuff. And only did he realise that it wasn't that bad afterall.

He knew how his son liked his diapers worn. When he would get a nappy rash, when he would pee or poop.

Well, once he was changing the diaper and s/n peed, and it got all over his shirt. You could tell Nozel was a little annoyed but he continued changing his diaper and cleaning up.

Then he went to change himself. He carried his son in his arms after, looking at him smile and giggle. Nozel pinched his cheeks.

"That bond, right?" you winked at him. And Nozel finally understood.

William Vangeance

He wants to be a hands on dad but he was really really busy. But whenever he could, he would definitely be hands on.

In fact, he holds the baby too much that you'll complain and lament from time to time, that he doesn't spend time with you anymore.

But deep down, you knew that it was because he didn't want to miss the precious times where they grew up so quickly.

But because he spends so little time with his infant child, he does get a little clumsy from time to time.

He would have the diapers the wrong way, and ended up having to shift d/n multiple times, making her more uncomfortable and thus, making her cry even more.

He would be confused on which milk bottle to use and how much to feed. Sometimes, d/n would cry because she was still hungry.

Well, eventually he always used the bigger milk bottle, so you had a pretty chubby baby, haha

He would also get the pyjamas and clothes the wrong side SO OFTEN.

"okay honey, don't they button at the back? But there's one that buttons at the back?"

With all the blunders and questions he's asking you, you hardly get much rest even when he's taking over the baby.

Sometimes you were just too exhausted to correct him and if it wasn't life endangering, you'd just sleep with your baby with her clothes inside out. Or her going out socks. Well, who's looking, right?

It's okay because it's all about the bonding at the end of the day. Whenever you see him smile to your giggling daughter, everything was okay.

ce characters + whether your asian parents would like them and how to win them over 🥺😣🫶🏻💕🍵

based on unfortunately realistic intrusive thoughts i have while reading self-insert fics

steve: military? hm. desi peeps leave ur comments bc idk how desi parents feel but i know ALL the east asian and southeast asian parents and grandparents might have something to say about that. the US army has left its mark.. just saying... better highlight his better features such as his sensitive artistic nature!! wait. wait. not that either, no need for them to call him a bum at the dinner table.

just... have him win your mom over with his stunning future son-in-law adorableness and charming smile 😀

andy: lawyer. that's it- no, no it doesn't matter if your EA mom prefers flower boys and he's a little too bearded. lawyer. the desi parents are messaging the Whatsapp group chat, they're calling the fam back in the motherland. look at that beard. lawyer.

tall ✅ upper middle-class ✅ drives an audi ✅ divorced? he has you now.

ari: handsome... ok.. but also. military. hmm. non-religious/non-abrahamic religious peeps, your asian parents might give him a better reception. but um, "divorced?" "has a daughter??" "soldier la??" "he have steady income???" 👁️👄👁️

my super religious background peeps, im so sorry. maybe the part where he's Jewish will get lost in translation. um. that's a fight and a half at the dinner table, good luck 🥲 maybe just elope.

curtis: ... I MEAN IS IT THE APOCALYPSE?? if not, your dad would probably like him. a man's man. strong, silent, built like a brick wall and does whatever DIY project he points him towards when you visit. your mom will call him scary. i don't think that would change whether you're E/S/SEA, your mom is pulling you aside in the kitchen and asking if you're really sure about him.

let Curtis show his gentle side. yeah, he's tall and intimidating but he has a soft heart. tell your lil cousins and niblings to use him as a jungle gym

jake: see Andy above- no, EVEN MORE POWERFUL THAN ANDY. yeah, military veteran, yeah, he's a lil awkward. but. computer science. information technology. wifi. tvs, laptops, phones. your parents are going to turn him into their personal help line and you might have to put a stop to it but goddamn if they don't call him son the minute this convo happens:

"he's in cybersecurity"

"what is cyba-"

"... IT"

"OH EYE-TEE. EYE-TEE VERY GOOD"

ransom: he's rich. he wears L.L. Bean and probably has the Louis Vuitton travel duffle bag. ransom is the nicest dressed, actually fashionable, sleek, and nicest smelling compared to the rest of these bozos. your mom loves him already. your dad is on the fence but also, he's well off enough to take care of you.

don't... say that he writes. yes, he does write. but focus on the fact that he's connected to a big big publishing house. yes yes. if this is an au and he's in charge of Blood Like Wine. BUSINESS OWNER, TAKE THAT.

---

disclaimer, all asian parents different. my dad is a graphic designer/artsy (though idk if he'd want me to date an artist tbh...) if ur parents aren't represented feel free to reblog w ur thoughts 😌

Headcannons for Javi Peña post Narcos

So I wanna credit @the-ginger-hedge-witch and @wheresarizona for their amazing post Narcos Javi series, The Crush and Learning to Live respectively. They 100% are the inspiration in writing these HC cause they're both *chefs kiss*

I 100% think after Columbia most definitely has PTSD. But as you enter his life, he starts seeing the goodness in people again, and starts to really heal. He may not be the same Javi that left Laredo, but he's closer than he thought he would ever be.

Javier is a horse guy, they really bond over their quiet strong exteriors. But you catch him one day softly singing to the horses as he's cleaning them up from a day of work, and he's doing the cutest little dance around them as he cleans. You wish you could video it to savor forever, your strong man being so soft and goofy.

He and his dad 100% go out riding together, maybe they'll talk maybe they don't. It's a good soul healing time.

Chucho adores that Javi is beginning to lighten up because of you. He's swears he hasn't seen his son smile so much since before his momma passed.

I imagine he ends up with a transplant, someone who didn't grow up in Laredo but probably still front Texas. So he ends up showing her all the best spots in Laredo, every date night he takes her somewhere different and tells her stories about himself growing up.

I'd like to imagine Lorraine is supportive of Javi and his bonita/cielito (I adore both nicknames from the two series above so he uses them interchangeably). It's unavoidable that Lorraine and them will cross paths. She sees how happy Javi is, and knows this is where it was all meant to lead for them both.

Bonita and Javi end up adopting dogs, both working dogs for the ranch and pet dogs for the home. I'd like to think a blue heeler for the ranch, since it's a cattle ranch. And maybe a golden retriever for the "pet" even though it 100% follows Javi around while he works the ranch.

This leads to Bonita getting taming some of the barn cats kittens, and having a mess of kitties in the house for her company while Javi and Chucho are out working.

Javi surprises his cielito with a sweet Appaloosa horse for her birthday a few years after they've been married (it'd be weird to get a girlfriend a horse, so yeah). Cielito starts going on those trail rides that Javi and Chucho go on together, and it's a very sweet bonding time for them all. Javi also will take her out on trail riding dates where they end up having a picnic and.... well I don't want Tumblr to yeet this into the abyss so go read the two series I mentioned if you wanna know what they get up to on those picnic dates🥵🥵🥵🥵

Javi proposes with his mommas ring. When he asks Chucho for the ring he takes it off his chain necklace he's been wearing since his wife passed, and says his mom would adore his Bonita. That night Chucho plays his first dance song, feeling super nostalgic and missing his wife. Bonita, not knowing what song it is, asks Javi to dance and he looks to his pop to check if that's OK. It is their song after all. He nods with glassy eyes, and watches his son dance with the love of his life. Chucho starts to play music more and more in the house, especially that song, just to see his son and soon to be daughter-in-law smile and dance more. It becomes Bonita and Javis first dance song.

If Javis PTSD is triggered, I think Cielito learns quickly how to help him manage it. Maybe starts strongly suggesting he go out for a ride with her. Or help her groom the horses. Something to get his mind and body back in the present. If it's out in public she will guide him to somewhere more calm, and by God if people start to talk about him and his mental health in a negative way. Well Bonita may be scarier than Pablo Escobar and all his sicarios combined.

[selfproclaimedunicorn]

I would like more cousin duo factoids and tidbits

The Roycegaryen/Targtower Daddy Issues Havers Cousin Duos are so dear to me, thank you for this opportunity to scream about it

Ella & Aemond

This shit is built on mutual "my mental health is everyone else's problem" bullshittery. They are a constant feedback loop of "catharsis is arson & soul rendering screams into the void & property damage," both equally explosive but subdued in the areas where the other isn't. They are also definitely profiting from Ella being way more socially well adjusted & friendly than Aemond; she's basically his emotional support sister-figure (not that he doesn't have older sisters, but Ella's way older than him while actually being willing to be his friend/mentor without being a second mom bc he would never replace Alicent like that!)

Absolutely chaotic son-coded oldest daughter/daughter-coded second son solidarity. When the Targtowers visit Runestone she takes him joyriding on Vermithor & then sends him to go play with her comedically serious son. 16/10 experience, bb!Aemond would do it again & she is his favorite cousin. They definitely set a tree on fire during that flying session.

Yorick & Aegon

My boys elbow deep in the daddy issues muck. The traumatized little boy who hates his shitty dad & just wants his mommy to hold him in Yorick recognizes the traumatized little boy in Aegon. They're friends, they're brothers, they're father & son; they hug each other & cry at least once.

Yorick is, for Aegon, an older male figure who cares about him without worrying about how that benefits him & is safe--he's dad shaped & tells him he can do/be better because he's worth that effort, not because the realm needs it but because he deserves it personally. And then for Yorick, Aegon is finally seeing to fruition the reason he was in King’s Landing & enduring All That for years: being the older brother figure of the king's son. There's just the extra bonus of them being able to commiserate over just fucking hating Viserys.

Aegon is a shivering cat that Yorick found in the dumpster that immediately imprinted on him when he figured out "I like soft touch." Meanwhile, Aegon bonding with Weird Scary Mountain Man is a fucking mirror of Yorick claiming his nasty as hell dragon. Also, Yorick has definitely threatened Otto Hightower in defense of His Boy™ & I feel like that level of care had Aegon stunlocked for several minutes. 100/10, he's never leaving Yorick’s side again.

Aemon & Helaena

Weird quiet isolated kid who gets easily overwhelmed solidarity, right there. Aemon sees the potential to get/be as bad as he was isolation wise, & he wants better than that for whoever he sees that kind of "I'm weird, I'm a weirdo. I don't fit in." energy in, so it starts with him going out of his way to make sure she doesn't slip through the cracks & then blossoms into something really sweet & mutual from there. He'll happily sit there in silence when she needs it & listen to her when she has something to say; like, just generally he isn't treating Helaena like she's fragile or has something wrong with her. His concern is just not wanting her to be lonely.

They respect each other as Socially Just A Little Off & they're mutually safe to be around when the social battery is running on empty. "Your thought processes & need to be alone sometimes are totally normal. Everyone else is wrong." Also, in a modern AU she's who is going up to the counter at the burger place to say Aemon asked for no pickles. Please know that is real & true.

Aemon is also close enough to her age (like, I think he was 5 when she was born?) that he can kind of easily & comfortably fit within her life while still being Large Older Rleative To Be Safe Around If I Need Protection. When he comes home from fostering for his 16th nameday & gets to be in a tourney to celebrate his getting knighted, he asks Helaena for her favor because that's his friend & she said she wanted to give him one. The tourney was loud, but she had fun & Aemon made sure she had both hiding spots & other kids to play with, 12/10 that's her cousin. Also Aemon is one of the most exciting parts of getting betrothed to Yorick's son/Stannis during the course of the fic (Stannis knows he is the second favorite cousin & he's okay with this)

[class-1b-bull]

I hope this doesn’t come off as weird. But class 1b as parents and/or how many kids would they have?

Honestly this is rlly cute and I had a lot of fun writing it <3

(Everyone is adult age obviously)

Not proofread we die like men.

Awase -

"Its not stupid if it works" became his motto very quickly, its actually kinda admirable to see the stupid shit he gets up to as a dad. One time you watched him wield his kid to the wall while he cleaned up some juice that spilled or smthn.

Sen -

Hes definitely on the more protective side of things towards his whole family. Anytime his kid wants to hang out with their friends it turns into a fucking interrogation. "Whos gonna be there? When will you be home? Jacobs going, whos that? Oh that jacob! Hes chill asf."

Kamakiri -

Both him and his kids are little balls of rage. I feel like hed have two kids and they all constantly yell at eachother in the most loving way possible, kinda weird how they pull it off honestly.

Kuroiro -

His kid is tiktoks goth baby. (If you dont know its a tiktok account about this little girl that dresses in black dresses and her whole room is black and stuff and shes so cute omll) him and the kid have a whole matching wardrobe and its adorable <3 (just imagine Kuroiro and a toddler wearing matching Metallica shirts)

Kendo -

I feel like she only has one kid (specifically a boy) but hes like captain of the soccer team or smthn so her house always had like 11+ sweaty kids in there talking about something completely random. (She doesn't mind tho, as long as they wear deodorant)

Kodai -

I feel like she would prefer to adopt an older kid than have one of her own. Shes so sweet to her kid all the time and she teaches them so much. She genuinely loves spending time with her kid its adorable.

Komori -

I went to a renaissance fair a few years ago and there was a lady with two kids all wearing matching elf costumes. Thats Komori. She ropes her kids into doing all of the weird stuff she likes and its honestly rlly cute <3

Shiozaki -

I honestly cant see her having any kids of her own or even adopting but I do think she would foster. Everytime a kid comes to her house to live there for a few months she spends her time teaching them a lot of things, (independence, thinking skills, different cultures and religions, ect.)

Shishida -

Boomer. He does that weird ass squint everytime his kids show him something. If its a stupid ass meme he always asks if his kid knows them lmao. 100% falls for flash sale scams and his kid has to remove viruses from his computer every day

Shoda -

He would be a good dad of one, maybe two kids. But he cant cook to save his life. His lover is out of town so hes watching the kids? Its pizza and instant ramen for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day for the next week.

Pony -

Pony is more popular than her daughter lmao. I feel like her daughter keeps to herself and reads at school, doesn't like being social but sometimes random people will go up to her and be like "can you tell your mom theres a party this saturday and sams." They are complete opposites lmao.

Tsubaraba -

Definitely has a son, they are besties and they constantly do shit like this together <3

Tetsutetsu -

Big muscle man and his tiny daughter with her silly pink tutu. He definitely spoils his kid so much its actually insane. Imagine him and his daughter having a little princess tea party and they're both wearing little crowns while drinking from pink cups <3

Tokage -

Cat mom. She can barely keep a plant alive how tf is she gonna handle a kid? I also feel like she had a bunch of younger siblings she had to take care of throughout her childhood so shes done with kids.

Manga -

"What do you mean we cant have 20 kids :(" if he could he would. He loves kids so much, he wants a big ass family with as many kids as possible and everyone will wear matching pajamas for christmas >:) best dad tho

Honenuki -

Hes such a good dad oml <3 he always listens when they talk about something and he genuinely loves and cares for them. He 100% lets his kids teach him about whatever their current Intrest is and its adorable.

Bondo -

Hes actually really shy and almost clumsy when it comes to being a parent (at least he is at first) nervous 24/7 but hes actually so gentle and kind to his kid <3.

Monoma -

Hes so protective of his kid. He just doesn't want his kid to be bullied like he was </3 he gets almost scared for his kid when they get their quirk (especially if its his quirk being passed down) gives them an hour long self love lecture lmao <3

Reiko -

I cant see her having kids (theyre sticky and gross tbf) so whenever someone asks when shes having kids she just kinda points to her cat. She does volunteer to babysit for everyone elses kids if they need a sitter tho <3

Rin -

Dad that loves dragons and kid that loves sharks. They definitely go to cool ass fairs and festivals together <3 knows all of his kids friends by name and is willing to help them with anything. They are his kids by extention lmao.

I really struggle writing sometimes because I just want to end every sentence with a heart but it looks stupid when I do that aaaheufnhhhhghgg </3

[blossysartgobrr]

Botan Waterflower

Info can be found under the cut and on his ToyHouse!

Basic info

Name: Peony "Bo" Botan Waterflower (absolutely hates his first name)

Gender: Cis guy (he/him)

Sexuality: Demiromantic heterosexual

Age: 15

Birthday: January 2nd

 AU Related info

Parents: Lana (Ma) and Misty (Mom) Waterflower; he is the Waterwarriorshipping child and a main character of this AU.

He is from Johto but took a boat to Kanto when he was 7 and his sister, Kiki, was 4.

Pokemon:

Billiam the Wooper ("no thoughts, head empty headass"-Holly)

Vaporeon (she is just vibing)

Currently traveling to train for a spot as a Kantonian Gym Leader. Actually wants to take his mom's position as the Cerulean City Gym Leader but hasn't told her yet so he's approaching this rather slowly.

Personality wise,  he's actually just pretty tired. First, he had to raise his sister for 3 years and now he has to deal with Mack's shenanigans, Holly's enabling, and neither one of them wanting to admit their feelings for the other one. Despite his cynical nature, he is rather supportive, especially when it comes to his little sister. He also has abandonment issues just like his mom fr.

Other info

He and his sister Kiki were actually adopted by Misty and Lana!

Botan, at the ripe age of seven, challenged then-34-year-old Misty Waterflower to a gym battle with his then-four-year-old sister by his side.

Misty could already tell that something was wrong here: there is a seven-year-old and a four-year-old completely unattended in her gym, the seven-year-old wants to battle her with a Wooper that can barely defend himself, the seven-year-old is completely disheveled while the four-year-old looks perfectly fine, she can see the eyebags under the seven-year-old's eyes, and most importantly there is a seven-year-old challenging her to a gym battle.

Misty, concerned as to why a seven-year-old wants to battle her: What're you two doing here? Where are your parents?

Botan, trying to lie: They're in the PokeMar-

Kiki, none the wiser: We don't have parents :D

And then Misty brings up the fact that she suddenly has a son and a daughter so casually

Misty: Yeah so I have a son and a daughter now. I think they'd be great company for McKenzie.

Ash: What do you MEAN you have a son and a daughter now-

Misty: Well, when a man and a woman love each other very much, they abandon their children 

Ash: I don't know how to process this information I am handing the phone to Serena

Ash: Where did you find these kids? 

Misty: In my gym 

Ash:  

Ash: Yeah I'm handing the phone to Serena, bye.

He wanted to battle Misty because he and Kiki needed money.

Is somewhat stressed by the idea of most likely having to battle his Mom over the title of the Cerulean City Gym Leader but fuck it, he ball!

Is so sick of Mack and Holly not telling each other about their crushes on each other that he's about to lose it.

Would rather die than to meet his birth parents

[autumn-foxfire]

Movie 21, the Crimson Love Letter. I've never watched this one before but I know Momiji, whose character was introduced as Kazuha's love rival, is often reduced down to her boobs in a similar way that Sera is.

Kogoro, that is a teenager. Can you NOT behave this way with girls the same age as your fucking daughter.

"In Heiji's words 'she's always getting jealous'" and I repeat, that is not a good sign for a healthy relationship.

Ran, you shouldn't have to parent your own father T-T I'm so sorry you have such terrible parents.

Usually movie Kogoro is a decent man. This is not one of these times.

And this is the first time that Momiji's boobs are mentioned. Oh Heiji actually looked interested.

Kazuha, being jealous is okay and normal, behaving like this is not. You're not dating Heiji, yet. Yes the girl showed interest in him but you could tell from Heiji's original reaction he was confused by what she was talking about.

I just realised the opening for this movie is quite tame considering the last couple of movies. Even with the bomb threat.

Heiji, don't grab another girl, Kazuha will get jealous (though he's just as bad).

Okay, Kogoro is being a responsible father and not letting his child enter a building with a bomb threat. It doesn't excuse his previous behaviour though.

The movies are a slut for Shinichi's skateboard. As they should be.

Of course Shinichi saved Heiji and put himself in danger instead as he really only thinks about others lives before remember to put his own first.

Oh fuck off. (Sorry that's always my response when they try and force the romance btween Shinichi and Ran in moments it's not needed).

At least Heiji returned the favour and saved Shinichi. But he needs to go to the hospital because he's small and inhaled a lot of smoke and was near a lot of exploding debris and was also caught in the tail end of another explosion. Not to mention he also almost passed out. Just let him be injured movies, I promise it won't hurt. Us.

Heiji: Did you know this would happen?

Shinichi: No but with my track record I figured something might.

Kids have no filter.

Momiji, that isn't how feelings work.

Shinichi, Ran, take note. I don't like how jealous Heiji and Kazuha can be, but at least they're very clearly into one another.

HOW CAN SHINICHI LAUGH ABOUT KIDS HOLDING A PROMISE FROM CHILDHOOD SERIOUSLY WHEN HE GENUINELY BELIEVES HE LOVED RAN WHEN HE MET HER?! SON YOU ARE THE POT.

Oh, Ai's hair is no longer as blonde in the movies. Good, I really like the reddish brown colour of her hair.

Agasa: Sorry, I'm concerned about my grandchildren T-T

Ai, when Shinichi rings: You made granddad worry.

Awww, even when she's sick, she looks after her friends. Sonoko is precious.

Kazuha that was terrifying.

And Heiji is showing us he does care for Kazuha and acknowleding he might have hurt her feelings by asking his mom to help her practise for the competition. Wow, romance isn't dead.

Ran: Kazuha will be disheartened if she sees a picture of a time Heiji has already he didn't remember.

Me: Why?

LMAO Shinichi, you should have just waited outside the room if you didn't want to get caught. Or hid under the table.

Ran has just been reduced to the babysitter in this movie, hasn't she.

He's such a nerd T-T His email is based after the sign of four.

Heiji and Shinichi should be way more injured then that. They were incredibly close to the explosion and didn't have a car's wall to protect them.

Why are the Heiji movies so incredibly dull T-T The Kyoto one was also pretty boring. Come on, I know they can be better than this.

LMAO I love Shinichi just admitting he's better than the police. He, the seven year old. He's not even wrong T-T

Wait until your own "love interest" didn't develop love for you, he just loved you the moment he met you before he even knew you.

She looks so upset that Shinichi is going to keep his "promise" to her. Probably because she doesn't want to him to keep it but she knows he will because he feels obligated to.

How interesting. Ran picks a card about friendship to represent her and Shinichi and even just says she wants to tell him lots of things (but not implying it is romantic in any way but a friend who wants to catch up).

While Kazuha chooses a very clearly romantic one and even sees Heiji when she says the line.

Very interesting.

Awww I love the kids sending Shinichi pictures and Shinichi laughing at how ridiculous and adorable they're being.

I love how Heiji told Shinichi to put out the fire while he just got them to the building.

Oh this is a guy who just supports his wife's wrongs. Nothing wrong with that XD (I'm joking, of course).

Oof and the guy was murdered by his first love instead of getting the compliment he wanted. This wouldn't have happened if they had been a throuple, just saying :p

LOL Heiji's screaming for Kazuha when Shinichi is the one who fell off the building.

Shinichi looks cute as a drowned rat.

Heiji: If you die, I'll kill you.

He's so eloquent.

Lmao Heiji's just like: I don't know how Kudou can live like this all the time.

And this is what happens when you hinge your love on a promise made by a child.

My Grandfather's house in the US had always been my sanctuary,  whenever my mind decided to have a battle against it's ownself, or whenever I needed an escape from acting normal all day, when in reality I'd wanted to maim, hit and destroy or set everything around me on fire.

My Grandfather, Kyle Hunter, was a notorious assasin with a perfect aim.  Besides my father, it was him who understood me, atleast better than most of my relatives. Here I'd always find an outlet and once I was done with my episode, I'd return back to role of the "Charming Heir of the Kings"  ,  a role I played so well that even my mom and my sister Gina believed it to be my true nature, my true self. Here I could be whoever I wanted to be, unlike in the UK ,where I had my Grandfather Aiden and Grandpa Levi's eyes on me and the way I handled my business. While most of the times I'd ignore their meddling, at times it became too tiring.

"Something troubling you back home?" My Grandpa Kyle asks me in a jovial yet concerned tone.

We're sitting at the dining table, my grandmother hovering around the kitchen throwing instructions about how everything should be cooked as per my liking. My grandmother, Rai, is one of the strongest women I've seen in my life authorative like a lioness yet kind when needed . I wonder how she's able to do that.

"Judging by the amount of time we've known each other, old man, you should know that it's the other way round. I'm the trouble at my home"

Grandpa laughs "That's true too. Although we're glad that you could grace us with your presence, admist all the chaos that's unfolded at the Kings household during the past few days, I'm inclined to think that this time, your visit has a purpose."

"You're right Grandpa, my visit does have a purpose." I say taking a sip of my coffee, "I've heard that the Albanians and the Bratva have reached some kind of agreement and are now content with their specific…areas of control"

I can see a frown forming on my Grandpa's face, his expression one of confusion "You've heard right, but why are we talking about the Albanians? Theo, don't tell me you got into a beef with those bastards, they're illiterate barbarians" My Grandpa adds, exasperatedly.

"I haven't gotten in a beef with them yet, but I plan to get into one, pretty soon"

My Grandpa looks at me as though I've grown two heads "What? Boy, have you lost your mind?? What business do the Albanians have with you guys, aren't you a King? Prim, proper and all that shit? Why get into trouble unnecessarily? Is your Psycho father aware of your plans, your Grandfather Aiden?"

"The King Enterprises have come across a challenge, of sorts.  The southern ports in UK are controlled by Mr. Abazi, the Albanian business man. While previously, we'd sort of had an agreement,  Abazi now feels emboldened enough to challenge us, I need to put him back in place and at the same time make an example out of him so that rats like him don't feel too ambitious in future"

"And that cannot be done, like normal businessmen do it, with talks and negotiations" Asks Grandpa

"Isn't Bratva a business organization of sorts too? Yet we can see it's approach towards handling such lowlife thugs?" I add with a smirk

"You and I, we're both aware what the Bratva stands for, I don't need to say it out loud for you to understand. I sometimes regret exposing you to this part of our lives, Dom didn't have a reason to not embrace our lifestyle,  but you do son. Your life back home might have it's own disadvantages, but it's nowhere near as dangerous as ours, be content with what you have, don't go around causing unnecessary trouble just because you're feeling adventurous"

After a long stretched pause, he slowly asks "Does your Mom know you're here? You know how concerned she gets whenever you try to associate with the Bratva business, and rightfully so. Stop giving my princess an headache every now and then" He playfully punches my shoulder.

I give him a small smile. Taking in a breath I add "I need your help, Grandpa. I want you to plant a spy within the ranks of Abazi, and then spread rumors, that Abazi has something that could bring the Volkovs to their knees"

My Grandfather runs his hands through his face "Oh dear God, as if the Albanians are not enough,  you want to pick up a fight with the Volkovs too?, we need to get you checked, boy, there's something seriously wrong with you, why involve the Volkovs in this?"

"I need the Volkovs on my side, for whatever I propose in the next Bratva meeting, this is most crucial for my plans to be effective"

He takes time, thinking about it. But I know he'll help me, he always does.

"OK, I'll try my best to help you, in whatever ways I can, but I'm still not very comfortable with your approach towards the Volkovs,  if Jeremy or Adrian get a hint of this, It'll almost be impossible for me to save you, and while you don't care a bit about your life, we all do"

"Now, why would the Volkovs want to hurt their Future Son-in-law?" I add with a grin on my face.

My Grandfather chokes on his coffee, a bewildered expression on his face, I hand him the glass of water and pat his back.

"Did you say Volkovs Son-in-law, or am I Hearing things?"

"You heard me right Grandpa,  I'm getting engaged to the Volkovs princess" I say with a smirk.

That's the exact time my grandmother choses to enter the dining room, she almost runs to my side "Did I hear it right, you're marrying Lia's granddaughter? Is this true? Does Lia know?"

"Yes, I'm planning to get engaged to  Aanya Volkov, She hasn't put this proposal infront of her parents, but she'll be doing so soon"

"She's such a pretty girl, soft spoken, yet courageous. I always admired her and wanted to ask her hand in marriage for Dom so that she becomes a part of our family , but I wasn't sure how Adrian or Jeremy would react to the propsal. I'm so glad that you propsed her, this is such a great news, isn't it Hon?"

"Wait.Both of you need to hold your horses, you said that Aanya is still to inform at her home about you two?"

"Yes"

"Then let's wait before celebrating… whatever this is. The girl is literally the most protected one in the entire Bratva, why do you think not a single boy's ever approached her in ages, it's because she's Jeremy Volkov's daughter, and we're already aware of how much tolerance he has towards your father and your family, the only reason that no blood's spilled yet is because Annika is married into that family of yours, and yet you want us to believe that you've somehow managed to pull this impossible feat of asking her hand in marriage, I don't believe you"

"I'll be sure to sent out my engagement ceremony's first invite to you Grandpa, don't worry"

"Jeremy will kill you, Boy. He won't tolerate you messing with his precious daughter, so take my advice to heart and stop this madness before you're buried 6ft under"

"Kyle! How can you say something like that?" 

Bless my Grandma, the only one on my team for now.

"Just stating the facts, my love. You know that I love my Grandson, and would fight tooth and claw before allowing anyone to lay a hand on him. With all that said, we'll have to be well prepared, son, if you're going to go through this engagement."

"And we will be prepared,  don't you worry Theo, you'll always have our full support " My Grandma says in her loving tone."I'm so happy, Theo, I'm glad Aanya could catch your eye, I hope nothing but the best for you two, may your lives be full of passionate love"

"The Volkovs are yet to say yes to this" grumbles Grandpa

"Oh hush you, they will say yes I'm sure. After all my Grandson is handsome like a prince, has a fortune to his name, is smart, brave and well built,  where else would they find such a perfect match?"

"I'm sure Jeremy would disagree, my love"

My grandparents continue to bicker back and forth, and I keep watching them with amusement.  While I was able to convince my grandparents that ours is a love match, the story would be completely different at my home. My father and Grandpa Aiden would definitely see through my bullshit.

Hopefully Aanya convinces her family before time, or else I'd have no option but to turn the odds in my favor, using not so pleasant methods.

By all means if he wants to step away from music go ahead. I support him and I think he should be able to do as he pleases career wise. He shouldn’t be tied down to one thing forever. All artists grow and flourish. For example Rihanna and its Fenty beauty and Savage lingerie. Beyoncé with hair care and clothing. Lizzo with workout gear. 50 with movies and shows. I think he should be able to move in and do other and possibly bigger things that he sees for weather that be Moms spaghetti, production, or merch. But if he wants to do merch he needs to step it tf up. Because it’s all the same and it’s getting boring. Do a real menswear like. Do some new hat brand. Or focus on expanding his Resturant or team up with 50 for moves and shows or even put MORE energy into his record label because it could use it if he wants to do producing and not necessarily rapping on the mic.

And yea, he should hear his fans out. They are a big pet as to why he’s here and thriving. And no offense but especially the younger ones now. He had a whole new generation listening to him. He can either use it to his advantage and make another album or not. But to be putting merch out every week is crazy. Because who is keep that man in business? 🤨

As for footnote, I heard that Paul wanted him to do it because Paul’s SON plays the game and he got the idea from that so they r ached out to fortnite… but Paul isn’t Marshall. Why does he have to collab with Fortnite because of your son and you think it’s a good money maker? Marshall doesn’t belong in a kids game period. If anything they should’ve tried to get him to voice in GTA6 or have his music in the game somehow… that would been HUGE for him considering the gta situation with him from back in the day.

And I feel like he’s gonna lose that lawsuit. And tbh I HOPE he does. It’s stupid. I get you wanna go hard for your daughter but babes… they were a podcast first. They been around for a while. No one is confusing the two. Plus, if Hailie cares so much then she needs to be a big girl and sue them herself. Oh wait she can’t because she doesn’t even have permission to use the term shade by legality. Oop- and we all know he wouldn’t sue his own daughter. But I digress.

I feel like all of it is just Paul getting in his ear and it’s bad. The lawsuit is ruining his reputation and he’s just doing things no one cares about anymore. Like get it together please.

YES. I absolutely agree. Eminem has had an incredible career and if he wanted to stop, he should. By all means. If he wants to bless us with more music, I'm here for it too, obviously. But I feel like maybe there should be a proper way to do it. Like, if you want to stop, maybe announce it and quit keeping people on their toes ?

Also I LOVE the examples you have chosen, when it comes to artists expanding and doing something else successfully. Also... Shady Records COULD use some more energy. I think I saw something from Paul saying it was never meant to be a big thing anyway, but... If you're signing people, maybe put some actual energy into their projects ? Because you're not doing them a favor by pretending the musical industry works the same as the 90s and disregarding digital promotion. Just sayin...

I hate that they seem to be disregarding the newer generation of hip hop fans too. Like "your opinion doesn't matter, we've been here long enough". Like... Yeah but they're still the consumer base and even though they shouldn't tell you what rap is all about... Maybe just acknowledge that it is changing ? Also, these people do keep you afloat 😂

Em in GTA6 would have been perfect. And I'm digressing but I think not having him do voice actor work on some occasions (like some animated series or a video game) is a MISSED opportunity. Because very few people modulate their voice the way he does his.
