#i have zero asks and i wanna doodle

[theyapper0]

Niffty's character is so.... FLAT!!!! She's got ZERO motivation for anything, her only motives seem to just be the unpredictable comedic relief :///

I wanna treat her a little more seriously (or at least as seriously as I treat the other characters, which is not a lot bc i think they're all too silly LOL)

I wanna give her like,,,,, RAGING OCD, like REALLY BAD, it's fucking CRIPPLING. She has a MILLION compulsions that she NEEDS to act on ("how many times did I flick this switch already? 3 times? Do it 3 more times just to be sure the lights still work" "everything is okay, right?" "one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twel")

I think Alastor plays into this a lot, like messing her up when she's counting, or purposely not reassuring her if she asks him, just to see her get all crazy because he thinks its funny.

(I think Husk and Niffty are pretty close as a result of this by the time of the first episode, they both have this camaraderie that ALASTOR SUCKS!!!!!!)

The rest of the doodles are just some sillay stuff :)

A summary on the possible sleight

The Beef season 2 episode 1

Carmy: This shit's not fun for me.

Richie: Yeah, but you love it.

Carmy: That doesn't make it fun.

Richie: If this shit is not fun for you, cousin, what the fսck is fun for you?

Carmy: I don't know. I have to get back to you on that.

Pasta season 2 episode 2

Thank you @mod-doodles for discovering this.

Carmy: Taste of Chicago. The booth.

Richie and Nat: The booth. ( chuckles )

Carmy:That was really fun.

A beat.

Sydney's head slowly gets into the frame.

Carmy Passes the hat on to richie- as if it's Richie turn to face the past and grieve.

Carmy: Here you go.

(To sydney) Yo, you wanna work at the apartment?

(Syd and Carmy spend time at the apartment. They bond - build on their partnership. Carmy is relaxed, present, and engaged. )

Then runs into claire. Gives her a fake number

SUNDAE episode 2x03

Carmy: : I Googled "fun"(remember Sydney's arrives when he mentions the last time he had fun)

... the other day. "...what provides amusement or enjoyment."

That's what it means. I am, uh, currently opening a restaurant that's providing zero amusement or enjoyment. Um... No, no, I'm kidding, it's, um... it's okay. I'm, uh... I don't know, I-I-I'm trying to start from a-a healthy place.

A-a-a positive place. And, um... yeah, that's the goal, right? I think when I was a kid, um, anything that would give me any sort of excitement or-or-or amusement or enjoyment, uh, it always got kinda fսckеd... But I-I think... sometimes they just, they try too hard. You know, or they'd make promises that they weren't able to keep.

Have to remind myself to breathe sometimes. I, um, have to remind myself to, uh... to be present, you know.

(Fast forward to when Carmy thinks of Sydney in 2x09 and 3x03 in his panic attacks to be present)

... I think, um... You know, maybe if I could provide more-more-more amusement or-or enjoyment for myself, it would be easier to, uh, to provide for others, you know.

Fast forward to spending time with Sydney looking for inspiration and makes a suggestion (let's be real he asks her out)

-Claire calls.

-Claire asks if he's okay with her having his number.

-Carmy practically follows along

-Carmy decides to help claire move.

Going back to what he said in the al anon meeting:

...I think when I was a kid, um, anything that would give me any sort of excitement or-or-or amusement or enjoyment, uh, it always got kinda fսckеd...

Except it's not his family this time fucking over fun or amusement (or are they? Looking at you Faks). It's carmy fucking over fun and amusement-joy. It's wasting his time with Claire to unconsciously fuck up spending time with Sydney, getting to know her, providing fun and amusement, and loving her, which would awaken his passion for life and continue to be as inspired and spontaneous as the day he created her favorite dish.

His instincts are telling him how great this partnership could be, yet he's been sabotaging it since she first walked in and he felt good feelings around her.

But are we deceived into thinking that Claire represents joy and amusement? Is this a sleight of hand?

I don't know if you have seen the last thing RS posted on instagram, and I don't wanna sound mean or like I'm criticizing every single thing she does, but, why does this feels a bit off? Like, I know every author needs money, and that's why they sell books, special editions and merch from those books. But seeing how some people who went to that last "book signing" now want to order or buy ANOTHER lo book just to get an autograph or that "exclusive doodle" feels a bit... Idk, bad? Like, the fans have to spend more money than other fans just to get this stuff? It feels a bit like what happened with that Persephone + Ares book that had a special edition that was all black, but costed more than the regular edition so the fans had to spend more money if they wanted their lo novels to look good together. Idk, maybe i'm just seeing too much into it, but I still wanted to ask your opinion on the matter.

Love your work, btw. Lo rekindled is so good, and your art is beautiful!

OKAY SO

I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS INSTAGRAM POST LOL

so I looked into it and yeah! it's off! it's super off!

story time, but there's this band I'm really into where, 1-2 years ago, they had released two new separate EP's, and they were selling them individually as special editions, only for them to then SELL THEM ALL OVER AGAIN AS BUNDLED VERSIONS AND THIS JUST LIKE

IT FEELS VERY SIMILAR LOL

there was also a time where this Youtuber musician my husband was really into was selling vinyls, and we managed to snag a copy in the hour that they were available, only for them to start selling SIGNED copies the week after they had sold out of the original prints

it's just an overall "ech" move because it really screws over your audience for paying attention/getting in first, y'know? That's what's such a big deal about being in a fandom, a lot of people like being "first" so to sell something under the precedent that it's "limited edition" just to print more with an even COOLER thing attached feels like such a fuck you. They're literally just trying to gouge more money out of people who have already bought the thing and "need" the exclusive copy.

This just goes to show btw there was nothing stopping her from signing books personally at SDCC. That feels like such a middle finger to the people who paid money to go to and be at SDCC (travel costs AND attendance costs) esp the people who cosplayed as LO characters and were clearly specifically there for Rachel just to be given a stamp and shooed away with zero conversation (as I talked about in a previous post) and then find out later after you've already gone home days later that you can get a PERSONALLY SIGNED AND DOODLED COPY if you go and buy a brand new book in one specific bookstore. That's so lame man, I can't even.

Just to add btw, not related to your ask really, but it really goes in conjunction with it, there was a tweet recently from Rachel advertising some new t-shirts.

But people who bought the shirts reported that they're INCREDIBLY cheaply made and don't look anything like the products listed. You can even see the low ratings on them but when you actually view them-

I do not feel the need to say it any louder for the people in the back, it's being spoken clearly at this point - WT and Rachel are cashing out on what little merit they have left, they do not care.

AND Y'KNOW WHAT I FOUND OUT WHILE WRITING THIS POST ????

THEY CHANGED THE FUCKING THUMBNAIL!!!

THAT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE 2 DAYS AGO, I CHECKED IT MYSELF BACK WHEN IT WAS FIRST POSTED TO REDDIT AND IT WAS THE GREEN VERSION.

THEY'RE LITERALLY CHANGING THE THUMBNAILS AND ADS TO DISCREDIT THE REVIEWS BEING LEFT.

DO NOT FALL FOR IT. BUYER BEWARE.

[semisolidmind]

I saw you say that you wanna write a visual novel someday, and I have to ask..

Will it have *monster* yandere bfs?😈😈😈

Side note: I LOVE YOUR ART SM YOU HAVE NO IDEA

THE WAY YOU DRAW THE MONKEYS IS 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🌟🌟🌟

Keep it up!! (but not too much, don't forget to take care of yourself too🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻)

it would most definitely have monster bfs

and the chances of at least one or two (or more) of them having yandere tendencies....

....is not zero.......

(thanks, im hoping to doodle them a bit while im on my family trip this week, but idk)

and im doin my best out here my dude 😭

[squeiky]

Ive lost myself into the depths of Metaos (Metal Sonic x Chaos 0) (again)

(Gonna add more drawings under the cut. Dont wanna make this too long on the feed 😊)

I have a hard time draw kisses. I keep practicing, but its not easy. So instead i just make these two do what i call a little "pikachu kiss" where they just touch their little snouts together and nuzzle, then a spark of electricity appears for as long as they decided to nuzzle.

Also, i drew Chaos with a tounge. Yeah thats cannon in his final form (so i added it to his zero form. Also added the lizard-type eyelids too, so you can see his lizard styled sclera!).

I love how quickly chaos goes from 0 to 100.

Also yeah height differences, Metal is the short king (by like 3 inches maybe?). It finally got to be the robot king 👏👏👏

I like to think that the reason Neo Metal Sonic didnt just go and take the biodata from chaos himself (as he probably would've been totally chill with it) is just cause he got flustered and ran away. Also its kind of akward having to ask.

Also i headcannon that chaos just eat (or absorb) the animal freinds, considering they just straight up disapear once you give them one, so the fact that Chaos saw froggy and randomly decided to eat it, then puked it out an ran out- probably meant that chaos just doesnt like frogs, and that him turing into a frog- was because he is related to chao and once he eats a live animal freind, whether he likes it or not, will turn into it, for a short while.

I started making concepts for Metaos stickers (and valentimes day cards) Mostly am making them for myself, but if anyones interested i totally would start selling em' for a couple bucks or something (idk)

Just thinking about them sharing baby photos (aka blueprints & concept art and using live children as examples because your species are all identical)

Some zoomins of my favorite doodles:

(Ran out of pictures i can add 😭)

[hookerfoxyanon]

Finally, an intro post!

Okay, it's been forever of me doing absolutely nothing so here we go making an actual intro post today

This is a sideblog for @dsaf-confessions, I am the anon known as, you guessed it, hooker foxy anon!

I'm deciding to make a shift in what I do with this blog, including in character asks with my anonsona, posting art, interacting more with the other anon blogs, and all that good shit. More on that later, though. My main blog is @an0nthecat, consider checking that out if ya wanna see art or just hear me yap more

Some basic information about me:

The names that I use online are literally Anon/Anonymous. It might get confusing I know but it's how I've been referred to for years I can't really do anything about it anymore HAHAHAH just call me that if you can

I am a MINOR. I am in my early teens. Please do NOT make any sexual comments about me. (Note, I said ME.)

I am also aroace, and non-binary. I use they/them pronouns.

I am currently hyperfixated on DSaF, FNaF and Goldie's Inferno (a FNaF AU made by the amazing bunnycat, that was sadly discontinued recently.)

The other fandoms that I am in include Spooky Month, ENA, and OMORI.

I am a furry.

I swear like a fuckin sailor, sorry if y'all don't like that I really don't care just don't interact with me or something lmao

I can be kinda meanspirited just know that most of it is lighthearted tho

Okay onto the fun stuff: My anonsona, their lore and the in character asks and confessions and stuff

This is my anonsona:

They have some fun anon lore! Most of their basic info is identical to mine so I'm not gonna bother so let's just type out the lore:

Their arc follows the DSaF 2 Fairly Evil ending, almost immediately after biting Peter they gained sentience and were super fucking confused. Their first thought was "Damn these things on my feet hurt" so they ripped off those high heels and followed Dave and Jack out of the restaurant and hitched a ride to Vegas in the trunk of their car.

They pried themselves out of it when they reached the Vegas strip and spent their first month of sentience getting fucking wasted (despite them being an animatronic... Don't ask) and terrorizing a bunch of drunk people.

They literally have next to zero interactions with any DSaF characters from this point on, they legit just chill in Vegas for the entirety of their lifetime.

They renamed themselves from Nightmare Foxy to Hooker Foxy for the shits and giggles and live in a dumpster behind a bar. They get barfed on a lot.

Their clothes were acquired by beating up random ass people on the street.

Okay now that that's taken care of... let's talk about asks and the future of this blog.

I kinda wanna start answering asks as Hooker Foxy I just thought it'd be fun yk yk yarhhh

If you have any asks for me, the person running this blog, please refer to me as Anon in the ask.

If you have asks for Hooker Foxy, my anonsona, refer to them as Hooker Foxy.

Simple shit.

Most of the answers to asks for Hooker Foxy will be accompanied by lazy and probably uncolored doodles

Tags for these will be #oochookerfoxyanswers for my asks and #hookerfoxyanswers for anonsona asks

Uhh other tags stay the same, #hookerfoxyreblogs and #hookerfoxyart mean the exact same thing as before

I might post more art and just talk in general more on here and stuff but yeah that's about it

Sorry for the long intro guys, I swear, I don't usually type this much 💔

[andro-dino]

just wanted to ask on how axyl and essi would look like on zero g. just curious to find out about this. i wonder how they grew up and what jobs do they have now.

HOOHOO I actually do have some really old doodles for both of them

I think I’d probably change both of these a little now but I don’t really feel like drawing new versions of em so im using the old ones for now

Axyl’s design is more inconsistent bc their design is based on myself and it’s weird thinking about the future so im kinda like euegjsurger with them appearance-wise, but as far as their plot goes, their main overarching character development ties heavily with how they feel about themself as a blader, and by the time masters/fury rolls around, whether or not it’s really something they wanna continue to pursue. Ultimately, though it’s a very hard decision to make, they end up retiring as a blader, though they do continue to do some mechanic work, and that’s pretty much where they’re at in shogun steel. Some mechanic stuff but mostly just sticking to themself and doing their own thing. and maybe moving in with Zhouxing and getting a cat and a dog with him who knows the world is a beautiful place really

Essi I honestly don’t really have as strong of an idea for. Her main plot ever since her initial creation way back in second grade was always tied really heavily to gingka’s plot in fusion, so afterwards it’s kinda just up in the air for her. She’d still be a blader and I think she’d probably be traveling the world a lot, maybe helping with restoration stuff, but other than that I don’t really know. She’s kinda just chillin I guess, focusing on herself and vibin as much as she can.

Molluck's Emotions 'n' Faces

I barely felt like drawing a few days ago but I just kept seeing a certain image of Molluck inside my head, so I started doodling him, yet again... This doesn't look like what I had inside my head since it made no sense to me when I tried to draw it... So yeah, here's just some random Molluck sketches I did to practice his face anatomy. I didn't mean to render these sketches, but like I have said, I'm bad at drawing simple stuff...

It seems like I do like to mix realism and cartoony elements together, I just haven't noticed it this clearly before... I had no idea what effect to draw that angry Molluck to have, so I ended up 'setting his head on fire'... You surely don't wanna make him angry! Though I gotta say that I love drawing angry faces, so this is yet one more reason why I love drawing Molluck this much.

I don't know how odd it's to see me drawing him mainly without his scars but it's just about that I tend to picture him before 'that disaster'. I also think that that his black suit fits better this new Molluck and that purple suit fits the best those previous Mollucks, so that's why I also keep this same suit. He is a very stylish Gluk!

I also have been thinking his face recently, in a certain way (of course I think about his face, like every day). He seems to look the most like 'a traditional Glukkon', or how I should say... He looks surprisingly a lot like he did in Abe's Oddysee. Yes, I could make this comparison between that New 'n' Tasty one too, but I prefer doing it this way, especially when I prefer this AO Molluck over NnT one (though, when it comes to anatomy, NnT is probably better... Yes, his body has a bit different anatomy in these games, especially arms, but when it comes to his hands, well, that concept art wins... Yeah, I'm basically mixing my fave Molluck stuff from different 'versions'. But enough about his body, for now.).

Here's an image to illustrate what I see:

Yeah, not the best quality but hopefully you see the main stuff here. First, he got similar cheeks; I'm not sure how to describe them but they have like two parts. The shape of his forehead, like the area around his eyes, is similar but also the shape of his eyes. (A little note: I have noticed that his eyes are a bit different in the actual cutscenes, and it's probably due to that this is a concept art piece, made on the 3D model, like his suit ain't actually a 3D thing but a drawing.) The basic shape of his head is the same in general, like his ears have the similar shape too. His chin has that 'separate part' in the middle of it. And yeah, his mouth looks pretty similar too. When I took that one screenshot for the ask, I also thought while looking at this Glukkon sign in it that man, this looks like Molluck's shape:

So yeah, Molluck is indeed 'the Glukkon'. But I also tend to think that he has very delicate features, or I at least tend to think this, that he looks very elegant and therefore he is such a beautiful Glukkon. Yes, I prefer to call him beautiful than handsome since like I said, I find him just elegant, adorable, endearing, even dainty, and so on, those kinda soft/feminine adjectives, so he is indeed beautiful for me. Though yes, he do is also handsome but I just prefer those adjectives about him. Frankly, I feel kinda alone with this but I guess that one reason for it is the orientation but also my personality, my own preference, and so on...

Yeah, it also has came to my mind to think that probably some people (would) find my Molluck sculpt creepy... Like there are people who do find him scary/intimidating but well, also ugly. But for me, he is just so adorable, beautiful, and well, my ideal man... They say that some people have unrealistic beauty standards, well, look at mine then, they totally are unrealistic! But I still managed to find 'my man', so no problem. (Y) I just have like zero interest in dating and other stuff like that IRL, so this is just my way to be, having a fictional partner. I know how some people see it, would see me as a weirdo, but I'm not gonna change myself for them. I'm so used to be seen as odd, so I kinda have no way to be 'normal' anyway, why I even should be like that. It used to depress me back then but then I started to embrace my 'oddness', especially after finding Oddworld, so yeah, I just tend to describe myself as 'an odd man' these days.

Also yeah, Molluck's species is also sapient and he do can express himself, so I just see there shouldn't be any problem in this way. Though, sometimes I wonder if he would really be into a relationship like this since he is so into his business, getting his moolah, and so on, but also probably has this attitude that Glukkons are 'higher/better species' than many others, making me wonder how he would see humans since yeah, I do am a human in my self-insert world with him, look like I do IRL. But I still see him having a certain kind and soft side inside him that he must hide, like I genuinely find him friendly, so I feel like my own species wouldn't be a problem for him, even if humans look similar to Mudokons. Also, I bet that he enjoys having someone to pamper him, that he can be himself with someone and having someone that understands him. Just no matter what has been said about him, I still find him a lovely Gluk!

Um yeah, I'm not sure of what else to say here but that yesterday, I saw some unseen Molluck and Glukkon stuff for me from that rare Oddworld artbook, the First 10 Years of Oddworld. (I gotta own it one day.) Man, it made me laugh a lot when I saw that storyboard for the ending of AO. Like, Molluck seems to swear and then, when Abe tries to chant, he just blows smoke into his face; just loved that stuff! I just can totally see Molluck doing that stuff, and man, I would love to create something related to this! Also yeah, it also made me laugh a lot when the book called that young Glukkons flushing their pet Fleeches down the toilet as 'the rite of passage'. In our world, people abandon their pets in the streets, but in Oddworld, they are flushed down the toilet; which one is worse? Well, probably depends on the species of the pet. I still need to draw a Glukkon with a Fleech... I just cannot really figure out how to draw young Glukkons... Like, I really wish to draw Molluck as a child with his Fleech pet... Well, just gotta try it one day. I have wanted to draw a Glukkon with a Fleech since I heard about the whole thing in the game but drawing young Glukkons has felt impossible...

But yeah, just so much stuff to create! Maybe I should just draw like a child, you know, just not really care about the result, just do it! There somewhere I still just prefer to see my stuff as amateur stuff, like I'm only a hobbyist anyway, not a professional; my stuff doesn't look like professional to me anyway, I know what it lacks of. I just personally think that my stuff doesn't have a high quality, barely good; it's just 'okay' for me. Sometimes, I just tend to think that every person I see here draws better than me and therefore I should stop posting my trash... Though, I don't even wanna really think about who draws the best, just focus on what the drawing is about.

~ Gotta just keep creating!

[matildaverse]

Please tell about your verses Scriddler and any headcanons for them 🙏

Okay, firstly thank you so much for this question. I would say I’m sorry for what’s to come but you asked for it this is all on you (to anyone else who unfortunately has to witness this blame anon I’m innocent). Quick preface idk who knows this but a friend and I are (VERY SLOWLY) working on our own little project which may or may not include Scriddler. My favourite character ever is Riddler theirs is Scarecrow so it works quite well. I literally got hired for a full time job today though so emphasis on SLOW.

Now I think this could be interpreted a few different ways so I’m going to break down the prompt and if I completely missed the mark whoops I’ll try again. Categories I’ve chosen are: Riddler, Scarecrow, them as a couple, and finally some of my WIPs silly goofs.

RIDDLER

Uses his Arkham outfit for mechanic/dirty work because POCKETS

Arkham uniform has a lot of question mark doodles

Nygma is the name, Nashton is the alias.

April Fools birthday cause he’s gothams biggest fool

Honourary member of Gotham city sirens

I’m personally biased toward forensic science Eddie HOWEVER questions multiply the mystery is the greatest work to ever exist. So I want a combination of that with forensic riddler (thinking he uses his circus gig to fund college). I am biased as a forensic girlie myself HOWEVER I HAVE GOOD REASONING I think it’s interesting how Ed reflects/mirrors Batman in many ways. E.g. in the Batman 2022 how they both take a creature they fear (bats/rats) and use it to fuel their version of vengeance.

I just want to mention the rats again because they are his spirit animal EVERY writer no matter the media understands he is a rat man and he has such a strong connection to them. I have a thread on a bunch of instances not sure if I posted that here. Someone I think commented on it saying he’s akin to a rat in a maze and I just wanna further that with how he uses that feeling to try and put Batman in the same position. He wants him to feel just as powerless.

I want to continue with the concept of powerlessness because I believe it’s such a strong and important motif for Eddie. Now Ed was beaten a lot by his father and fellow school kids. He’s a scrawny guy so he doesn’t really have the strength to fight back. This is kinda the first instance of him becoming powerless. I have a theory that his father not only beat him for ‘cheating’ but also maybe because he didn’t fit his ideals of a MANS MAN. I can’t remember where I got this from (maybe Arkham asylum imterview? That one my fair lady type comic??) but I like the idea that his father was disappointed maybe even jealous of Ed’s intelligence. He wanted a macho type son similar to himself. A footballer kid who was good with the ladies. Ed’s father comes across as a bit of a stupid alcoholic.

Now I’m probably not going to articulate this very well at 2:31am so apologies but I believe this leads into his ✨PHYSICAL DESIGN✨

Now a common denominator I absolutely adore in forensic riddler stories (others too but mainly these) is his slow progression into his signature look. Arkham Origins, Zero Year, Gotham, and even Batman Forever start Ed off in regular work clothes. He often slowly progresses into green clothes throughout the story to show he’s closer to ‘snapping’. Here are some of my concepts of potential employed Eddie

I also believe that Ed’s sexuality progresses alongside this. This is why I think there’s a bit of conflict in fans whether he’s a whore or an incel virgin. Truth is he’s both! Gotham showcased this well, in the beginning he’s very repressed and antisocial. Virgin supreme. As he slowly becomes his ‘true self’ he becomes more confident. He becomes confident in his villainy, he becomes more confident in his sexuality, and he becomes more confident in his attire.

Now I also think at the beginning he gets a bit too silly with it which is why he wears… spandex. I’m not drawing that tho so we may skip that phase. At the same time he may get a bit too silly with his um… bedroom activities. I am working on a list of all the rogues he’s screwed in every universe but essentially a lot of d listers; king tut, clock king, cluemaster, calendar man (this one hurt to add), capt. boomerang etc.

Nygma, unlike Crane who has a pretty consistent apathetic take on fashion, prides himself on his appearance and as I touched on before it reflects his state-of-mind. Edward can have some high highs. He will make sure he looks as dapper as can be when present his next ‘greatest riddle’ to Batman. HOWEVER when this ultimately fails for the billionth time he spirals. When he’s in his obsessive mode he can neglect some pretty important hygiene (Arkham series handles this well). His hair may grow out become messy especially when locked up in Arkham.

I have this design for him all cleaned up but I think it may be like a fancy event riddler instead of his official outfit cause the plain green suit is kinda iconic but I’d love to hear input! Idk cause I put the plushie in a regular green suit.

Arkham concepts:

Honestly havent figured out the glasses situation yet whether they’re forever or like reading glasses cause the domino mask is fun but also 🤓

ALMOST DONE WITH just EDDIE I PROMISE! Finally permanent damage/injuries. Now I have some (non-confirmed) ideas for Jon and desperately want to avoid same face syndrome cause my art isn’t great yet. I quite Minaj’s Eddie saying he ‘heals like a lobster’ I think that’s a fun way of describing why he doesn’t have much permanent damage especially on his face. He does however have scars on his chest from Arkham torture which he carved into a ? To reclaim power (I made a post about this but quick recap image)

SCARECROW

lives on coffee

Horse girl (that kid in class who loves horses so much they only draw horses they live breathe and eat horsy)

Year one origin with granny (him and Ed have a kinship through bad parental figures)

Also wanna take it a little further since we all know and love him covering himself in rat blood and getting the shit pecked out of him but I reckon she’d have other very religious based cruelties in store. So I think he’d have self-flagellation scars perhaps maybe a more modern iteration of this not sure

Unrelated, but I reckon Harley was his student and in class when he shot the gun

Cannot cook also terrible diet probably cause granny barely fed him

So nearsighted that anytime he wears the mask he runs into stuff

Can’t drive well ( I like in manbat when he has to hype himself up to drive)

Obvi the pet crows. One of them looks a lil funky like it’s gonna drop dead any second but it somehow keeps being alive.

CANNOT USE TECH TO SAVE HIS LIFE. He’d use carrier crow if he could. He just got used to fax. Ed has to set up the screens when he does his lil Gotham takeovers because he refuses to learn.

He is so freaking lanky

Okay so I don’t feel comfortable sharing my friends art without permission so I’ll just show some of my panels of their design for him (excuse Jeremiah and hatter)

Jon I think has a very slim face maybe even a broken nose I’ve given him a little tan I’m no geography expert but Georgia sounds like a hot place in comparison to cloudy Gotham and since he’d hang outside to avoid granny he’d be out in the fields a lot. HOWEVER this is not the final design I just gave him a face I thought suited as I am yet to receive a maskless concept art from my project partner.

TOGETHER (this is literally the only thing you asked for I’m so sorry)

they both fixate on a task so bad they forget to eat.

Riddler helps with computer stuff

Ed is at first disgusted by Jon’s dress sense but I think kinda comes around when he understands that it’s his way of expressing himself. Even if he’s always covered in hay

Idk if I’ve gone full insanity 3:33am mode but there’s a video of Mathew grey gubler in cowboy gear doing the hoedown I just pretend that’s Ed taking jon to Georgia or something and being like look Jon it’s your southern culture and like pissing him off

I think what originally draws Jon in is Ed’s fear of powerlessness which I think represents itself as a fear of intimacy (even in his whore era I’m not sure he gets really close with people)

In our version Ed gets arrested first so he gets the top bunk dibs however even if they were arrested at the same time Jon probably would be too long for that bunk

Uhhh kinda NSFW (hence why it’s last so it’s easier to skip) which I don’t talk about much but THE MOTIF OF POWERLESSNESS. So like one question I notice people ask when there’s a m/m ship is which one tops. Now I believe in this case (early relationship) Ed refuses to give up power so he’s on top. In fact he may even avoid any type of sexytime where he can be put in a vulnerable position. However as trust and mutual not murder happens he may lower his defences and do an old switcheroo. Someone else can write that fic tho I’m not sure I’m ready 😭

For the artist ask game! 6, 13, 24, and 29?

Thanks for the ask velvet!! :)

6. favorite thing to draw?

When drawing ganqing: hair (always fluffing it up and adding strange triangular streaks to keqing's hair that make zero sense lol), faces, and ganyu's horns. But honestly arms and hands too, because the gestures can express a lot imo. For all the lamenting over anatomy and how strange and hard it is, i think i've improved enough over time to generally just enjoy drawing the whole body of a character.

When drawing creatures: heavily depends on what kinda creature it is, artstyle etc. but generally fur. Like even if i draw dragons, i wanna add some fur. Slugcats are an exception lol, i've drawn them with fur before but i'm a firm believer of smooth, slimy slugcats. Other than that, ears, horns and claws are fun.

13. talk about a wip you like!

GANYU WITH A QILIN TAIL!!!! I'm enjoying all the new art of baby ganyu, but i'm rlly excited abt my "adult ganyu showing keqing her fluffy tail" wip lol. I can tell you i've been lowkey agonizing over having to draw clothes tho 😭😭 But i got over it and it's going okay, so i should be done with it maybe even today. Also what's funny is that ganyu's head in this drawing is a months old doodle i just repurposed for this drawing. I'm glad i got to actually use it for something lol

24. whats a compliment about your art that has always stuck with you?

One time someone said they "love the togetherness of this image" abt my drawing, and that was really nice, like yes!!! I succeeded at putting emotions into this image!!! Also you said "this is like straight out of a scene in my mind tbh" abt the exact same drawing, which i liked a lot too!!! Something abt humans connecting with each other thru art perhaps?

But I also really enjoy whenever people say they like the shapes i draw, or that my art and characters are " so shaped", etc. And character expressions!!

29. do you use a lot of references while drawing?

Yes, usually. Sometimes for simpler doodles i won't have any, or maybe only a few, but a lot of the time my canvas is cluttered with references lol. In-game screenshots, official art, irl photos, 3d model pose screenshots, my own art too. For my latest wip i took photos of my own arms hhhh. Sometimes it also just serves as setting the vibe tho, or general inspo, not necessarily anatomy or some specific thing. Depends on the drawing. (old examples below)

[afraidparade]

Can I ask whats your process for making new ocs? Like where do you get inspiration or ideas? In general or for size specific stuff! I wanna make a new oc but i dont have any (good) ideas

well first of all, most of my OCs weren’t my idea lolol, everyone but luka and faust came from my bf’s brain and then we expanded collaboratively from there

but my general advice is to explore concepts and tropes that really resonate with you - the best OCs are the ones that come from guilty pleasures imo, doesn’t matter how cheesy or ‘cringey’ your favorite tropes are. you can also just frankenstein together a bunch of traits from other existing characters that you like and put your own personal spin on them. there’s also no pressure to have every aspect of their character figured out from the get-go; half the fun is developing them in your mind during periods of rest (road-trips are my personal favorite).

if you’re stuck on their design, i either mess around on picrew until i put together something i like, or i’ll scroll through my pinterest board of character designs that i enjoy (obviously don’t carbon copy someone else’s design, just take inspiration from little details)

for size specific stuff it’s really a matter of preference, but in general i like trying to find dynamics that i personally feel have very little to zero content in the community and seeing what i can come up with. again though i think it’s a matter of what tropes you really enjoy, whether that’s borrowers or eldritch gods. borrowers AND eldritch gods, how about THAT

i’d say the most important factor is that you’re making them only for yourself, and not thinking about whether or not they’ll be popular or well-received or whatever. make them personal, make them fun — basically just make them a source of comfort you can escape to when the real world sucks too much :-)

my personal process is just being insane all the time and doodling them whenever i have free time, that part i can’t really explain sorry lol

Ch 4: A Dance to Remember

---

Almost one full month after Stiles has been attending Devenford, Satomi announces over the intercom that at the end of the week they’ll be having a dance. That there will be early release Thursday and no classes on Friday so that everyone can go into town to buy new clothes if they want to.

The best part of it all?

Attendance is optional.

Stiles has zero interest in going to the dance. Not even a little bit. It’s not that he doesn’t have the money to buy a suit or anything like that. Between money he’d saved from chores and odd jobs and his father’s life insurance, the spark is set for a while. He’s just not that big on dancing. With or without a partner. He had gone to his senior homecoming with his girlfriend at the time, Malia. It wasn’t the fun he was assured it would be.

It was actually the night that the spark broke up with the coyote. Stiles understands that supernatural creatures can be very territorial. Okay? He does. It’s not even really a problem to him either because you can’t help your nature. What was a problem was the extent Malia took it. The coyote snarled at everyone who even looked at him. That’s not okay. If someone tried to butt into their dance and take Stiles for themselves or blatantly flirted with him in front of her, then that’s one thing. But that never happened. 

Even when Stiles’ friend Garrett, who was there with his own girlfriend, simply came over to say hello, Malia flipped. Full on lost her shit. If Garrett wasn’t a werewolf himself, Stiles would’ve been concerned that she would’ve killed him.

Not being able to talk to his own friend was the last straw. Stiles broke up with her and left the dance. 

It was the same night the coyote started stalking him. Thank god he was the sheriff’s kid. Between his father and Jordan, in two short weeks Malia made enough of a mistake that she got caught. She’s been locked up tight in Eichen ever since. 

Add that to his other childhood friend Heather being kidnapped and murdered the night of her sixteenth birthday party. He doesn’t even want to talk about what happened at homecoming his junior year. That was a shit show and a bloodbath. Stiles doesn’t have the best track record with parties or dances. 

Best to just stay home and catch up on his studies.

He doesn’t go to town either day they’re allowed to. What’s the point if he’s not going? Just to go into town? Nah, Stiles is good. The food at school is surprisingly really good and free. He’s been inside a Starbucks before, he doesn’t need to see another one. The pack was a little upset because they wanted to spend time together. But they do that practically every night. The spark will be fine and the pack can survive two days without him.

Donovan was the first back on Friday.

“It’s open,” the spark says to the knock at his door. He’s just relaxing in bed scribbling in his sketchbook. 

The Beta peeps his head around the door, “hey, are you busy?”

“Just doodling,” Stiles closes the book, “what’s up?”

“I was just heading to grab some dinner,” Donovan steps into the room. He jabs his thumb over his shoulder, “wanna come with?”

As if it was his stomach that was asked and not Stiles, it lets out an angry growl. The spark snorts, “yeah, why not?” He gets up and shoves his shoes on. Thankfully no classes means they’re free to wear their own clothes. Jeans and a tee have never felt so comfortable. “So how was it going into town?” Stiles asks, shutting the door behind them.

“It was alright,” Donovan shrugs, stuffing his hands in his jacket pockets. The Beta smiles, bumping their arms together, “would’ve been better if you were there.” He ducks his head, hiding his smirk and opening the door for the food hall. 

“Oh, I’m not that much fun,” the spark says as they get in line for their food.

“I doubt that very much.” Plate in hand, Donovan heads towards one of the tables outside. It’s just starting to get dark, the little bit of sunlight left gives the tables a soft glow. 

“Why do you think I’m not going to the dance?” Stiles asks, sitting next to the Beta.

Donovan pauses, fork mid air, “wait, you’re not going?” The spark shakes his head no, chewing his steak. “Well shit. There goes my plan then.”

“Your plan?” Stiles parrots back, covering his mouth.

“I was sort of hoping you’d go,” Donovan sets his fork down, looking at his plate. “And…that you’d go with me.”

Is Donovan seriously asking him on a date?

“Oh.”

“Well, I just,” the Beta sighs, looking back up at the spark. “You’re new and I know you don’t really know a lot of people outside the pack. So I thought we could go, you know, as friends because you should be allowed to have fun.” Donovan chuckles to himself, “and we didn’t exactly get off on the best foot. I figured a date to the dance could help make up for that.”

“That’s actually really nice,” Stiles admits with a smile. Maybe he can set aside his differences with the whole dance thing. He’ll have Donovan and the rest of the pack with him. It should be okay. Besides, the Beta is trying to apologize and do a nice gesture. “I’d love to go with you.” 

“Wait, really?” Donovan doesn’t even bother hiding his excitement. It almost makes it worth having to sit through a school dance to see him happy. “I don’t want you to feel like you have to.”

“No, I mean it,” the spark insists. “I just don’t have the best track record with things like that.” Stiles laughs, “so if the night ends in disaster, don’t say I didn’t warn you. Seriously though, it was really nice of you to offer and I appreciate it. So who knows? Maybe fourth time’s the charm instead.”

“Let’s hope.”

—

When they finish their dinner, Donovan and Stiles go their separate ways. The Beta again thanked him for the chance to redeem himself. Stiles will admit, it took a bit for Donocan to grow on him. But as far as the spark can tell, he hasn’t been peeping from the bushes anymore. So the spark doesn’t see a reason not to trust him. And they’re pack now. Bygones and all that.

Isaac still isn’t back yet by the time the spark returns to their room. Someone however definitely has been here. On his bed is a black box with a purple bow. It’s far from his birthday, so what the hell is this? Anxiety pools in his stomach, remembering all of the “gifts” Malia would leave him. Whatever this is though doesn’t share the same pungent odors as what the coyote would leave, so that’s something. 

Carefully, Stiles opens the box and lets out the biggest sigh of relief. Inside is a dark gray suit, white dress shirt, and an emerald green tie. A small white note card sits on top.

“Knock knock?” Stiles scrunches his face, flipping the card over. Nothing but a hand drawn heart in the same scratchy penmanship as the words. What kind of fucking note is this?

Someone knocks on the door.

When the spark turns around, Brett is leaning against the doorframe, his smirk ever present as he crosses his arms. 

“Knock knock,” the spark sputters, “really?”

The Alpha pushes off the wall, “what can I say? I have a flair for the dramatic.”

“Clearly,” Stiles shakes his head in amusement. “You bought me a suit. Why’d you buy me a suit?”

“You didn’t come into town with us,” Brett leans forward on his toes, rocking back. “I was going to ask if you’d wear it and be my date. You’ve kind of been going back and forth with the whole hot and cold thing. Ignoring my flirting and then letting me hold you while you sleep. Being my date could finally break the ice, help you decide.”

The wolf isn’t wrong. Stiles mostly ignores Brett’s advances. But there’s a few times where the spark will let it go too far. Like moaning when he got bit. Or being pinned against a wall and letting the Alpha kiss his neck like that. But then Stiles will push him away when it gets to be too much. When he feels himself ready to cave.

“Brett-”

“If you let me take you on a date to the dance I can show you that you don’t have to be nervous around me,” the wolf pushes on. Brett steps in his space, “you can have an excuse to show that you like me in public without giving yourself away.”

Stiles doesn’t know what to say, except that, “I can’t.”

The Alpha takes a step back, “are you really that against being with me? I’m not a bad guy, Stiles.”

“No, I’m not. It’s not that,” the spark huffs, pinching the bridge of his nose. Brett makes him nervous as hell, but an innocent school dance would’ve been more than fine. “It’s not that at all.” Because no, Brett isn’t a bad guy at all. He was just too late.

“Then what is the problem?” The wolf asks, sounding more hurt than angry.

“Donovan,” Stiles states, kind of put off by the fact that his avoidance of Brett’s flirtations actually hurt the Alpha. “He asked me earlier at dinner and I said yes.”

“Oh,” Brett softens, “Donati actually asked you. He said he was thinking about it, but didn’t say if he’d go through with it.” The Alpha scratches his chin, “so for argument’s sake, if I had asked you first…”

The spark answers truthfully, “you probably would’ve had to convince me. Don’t look at me like that,” Stiles rolls his eyes. “Donovan had to convince me too. I wasn’t planning on going.”

“So if I had?”

“I would’ve said yes.”

The Alpha smiles a near predatory grin, “good to know. I was worried you were going to lie to yourself forever. Will you at least save me a dance?”

“If Donovan doesn’t mind, then yeah.” Stiles may not like dances, but still. “We may be going as friends, but I won’t be rude.”

“I can respect that,” the Alpha says, pulling the spark into a hug. Being in the pack now, Stiles has grown accustomed to how tactile everyone is. He’d be more surprised if the wolf didn’t hug him goodbye. “Keep the suit. Please. It’ll look great on you.”

“Are you sure?”

“Consider it Alpha duties since you’re not going as my date and didn't go shopping,” Brett laughs. The Alpha squeezes him harder before letting go, “I’ll see you tomorrow, Gorgeous.”

—

“Don’t you clean up nicely?” Isaac teases, tying his tie while the spark puts on his shoes.

The only dress shoes that Stiles owns are the ones he wore to his father’s funeral. It’s okay, the spark can handle wearing them. Not like he has to spend the night in the entire outfit. If Brett hadn’t been nice enough to buy him a new suit, Stiles would have. 

“Let me guess,” Stiles ties the second shoe, getting up to join the wolf by the mirror. He puts his hand on Isaac’s shoulder, “you helped him pick it out, didn’t you?”

Isaac wraps his arm around the spark, “actually, no. I was with him when he bought it. But it was all Brett’s doing. The idea and the suit itself. I was just an innocent bystander.”

Innocent, right.

In the Alpha’s defense, Stiles does look good. The pants and jacket fit really nicely and he loves the darker color. The emerald tie, though matches their uniform, actually makes the spark’s eyes pop. All the golden honey in them is practically bursting in their sea of brown. And Stiles feels comfortable in the clothes. Not stiff and constricted like a kid being forced to go to church like he usually does. 

“He’s got good taste,” Stiles checks himself out one last time, “I’ll give him that.”

Isaac lets go, “Alphas and their need to provide,” he says, walking towards the door. “Come on, let’s go meet up with everyone,” the wolf walks out the room. Not giving the spark a chance to ask what the providing comment meant. 

Apparently, Stiles still has a lot left to learn about werewolves. And Alphas. He scrambles to catch up with the wolf who’s already halfway down the hallway. The spark’s window of opportunity to ask closes again. Because just when he catches up with Isaac in the foyer, the pack is already there waiting for them.

Brett makes his breath catch in his throat. The Alpha is in a suit that’s an exact counterpart of Stiles’. Emerald green jacket and slacks with a dark gray bow tie. The spark isn’t sure if he wants to blush or tease him for the cheesiness about the matching outfits. 

Donovan steps in between them with a soft smile on his face before the spark can decide. “You look amazing,” the Beta offers his elbow, “ready to go?”

“Thanks,” Stiles accepts his arm, “let’s go.” He knows they’re going as friends. Donovan said so himself. But he appreciates the Beta trying to give him the full experience. He had done the exact same action for Malia before the night went sour. Stiles shakes the thought away. None of them are the coyote and have proved to look after him. 

He’s determined to have fun tonight.

Or at the very least not have it become a disaster.

“We have a table over here by the food,” Brett leads the way through the double doors.

Music thumps through massive speakers. The food hall has been transformed into a magical forest theme. Projections of fairies and unicorns prance around the walls. Glowing blue and purple mushrooms line the walls with dotted lights to resemble fireflies. Leaf garland hangs from the ceiling along with some trees scattered about the room. There’s lines of twinkling lights amidst the garland. Green, brown, and gold table cloths line the room with soft vine candelabras. 

“It’s like the woods on a full moon,” Lori gasps, looking at the giant crystal ball above the packed dance floor. 

“It’s beautiful,” Stiles remarks, coming to a stop with Donovan at their table. The spark takes a seat at the sparkly, gold cloth.

“I’m gonna grab a drink,” the Beta says while Mason sits beside the spark. “Want me to grab you something?”

Stiles peers over his shoulder at the table of food behind them. Mini burgers, pizza, pasta, and finger sandwiches. And a litany of sweets and candy. The spark smiles, “I wouldn’t say no to a chocolate cupcake and some punch,” he tells the Beta.

“You got it,” Donovan pats his shoulder before going to grab their stuff.

“What’s your secret? I gotta know how you got Donovan of all people to wait on you,” Mason says. “Let alone be willing to be someone’s date.”

“Yeah,” Liam butts in, “I honestly expected you to come with Brett.”

The Alpha in question sits directly across from Stiles, throwing him a wink. Mouthing, “you look hot.”

Donovan comes back with two cupcakes and two glasses of green punch, “I think it’s green apple? And as far as you two jackals,” he addresses the other Betas, “I owed him for behaving like a complete ass when we first met,” Donovan explains, taking the empty seat to Stiles’ right.

The spark scoffs down the cupcake and his drink, not realizing how hungry he’d been, barely tasting either. Maybe he should grab some actual food. Lori dragged Isaac to the dance floor before even sitting down. He’s honestly a little glad Donovan hasn’t asked him to dance. Stiles is just grateful to not be here stag. And it probably helps that the Beta understands his skepticism about dancing and that’s probably why he hasn’t asked. 

They sit and joke, enjoying their free time together. Just as Lori and Isaac make their way back to the table to eat something, Mason somehow convinces Liam to dance and be his wingman. Stiles is just happy to watch. 

Until Brett pipes up, now standing at the spark’s side, “what do you say to a dance with me?”

“It’s pretty fun,” his sister says, digging into her plate of food.

“Would you be okay with that?” Stiles asks the Beta. He said he wouldn’t do it unless Donovan was okay with that. The spark meant it.

“Yeah, go for it,” Donovan smiles. “I asked you to come so you could have fun, remember? Go dance with our Alpha,” the Beta confirms. 

Brett holds his hand out and the spark takes it, letting himself be guided to the middle of the sea of bodies. Out of the pack’s eyesight. It’s a fast song that he doesn’t recognize, Stiles thinks he can get away with swaying to the beat at a distance from the wolf. The Alpha just grins, putting a hand at the small of the spark’s back.

Brett pulls them so fucking close and the spark’s heart flutters, “hey, Gorgeous. That suit just-” the wolf inhales sharply, “you look very good.”

Stiles’ heart slams against his chest, the Alpha moving them to the beat. Hips grinding together. He’s never danced like this with someone before. Stiles wasn’t prepared for how intimate it’d feel. The spark kind of likes it. Even smiles and laughs.

The song fades, changing to a slow one. Stiles expects them to stop. To go rejoin the group. That’s not what happens. Brett, ever so slowly, pulls the retreating spark back to him, “one more. Just one more and then you can go back to your date. Please?” The Alpha asks so gently, hope glistening in his blue eyes.

It melts the spark. Those beautiful pools filled with so much longing. How is he meant to say no to that face? Forgetting that for the better part of three weeks, he’d been doing just that. What’s so different this time? “One more,” Stiles agrees, placing his hands on the wolf’s shoulders. 

The Alpha rests one of his hands on Stiles’ waist, the other staying on the small of his back. “Thanks, Gorgeous,” Brett says, tucking the spark under his chin. The hand on his waist trails up and down his side. A small, sweet gesture meant to calm but it makes him so goddamn nervous. 

“You don’t have to thank me,” Stiles murmurs into the wolf’s chest. He can feel Brett’s heartbeat against his cheek. It’s soothing. How in the hell is the Alpha this calm being this close? Stiles certainly isn’t. 

“After what happened in the hallway, I wasn’t sure you’d let me get this close to you again. It’s nice,” Brett admits as they sway back and forth. “Even with you letting me snuggle you to sleep. I never thought-” he sighs, “I know I can come on a little strong.”

“A little?” Stiles snorts, looking up at the Alpha with a cocked brow.

“Okay, a lot,” Brett chuckles, cupping the spark’s face. “I can’t always help it. I know what I want.” The spark’s heart is having a field day in his chest, there’s no way that even the loud music is hiding it from the wolf. “I want you, Stiles,” the Alpha leans in, their lips inches apart.

Stiles can’t explain it. He has no excuse, really. Nerves settle in his stomach and the spark can’t help it. He runs- okay, briskly walks…oh, who’s he kidding? Stiles flees.

Through the sea of bodies, past their table, and all the way to the courtyard. The fresh air hits Stiles’ face and he finally feels like he can breathe again. He truthfully can’t give a proper reason why he ran away. Donovan would be a good one. It’s surely in poor taste to kiss a guy that’s not your date. He doubts the Beta would’ve cared, it was a friendly invitation. So that’s not really the reason.

Brett isn’t a bad guy. The Alpha helped him through a really bad panic attack all on his own. Offered the spark a place in his pack before even really getting to know him. And he’s relentless in his flirting, but he never oversteps or truly pushes the spark too far past his comfort zone. Always stops when Stiles tells him to. Backs off when the spark pushes him away.

It’s not like Stiles doesn’t find him attractive either. Anyone in their right mind would. The spark just wasn’t planning one some romance when he got to Devenford. Then again, he hadn’t planned on joining a pack in the first place and he did that.

But is being attracted to the Alpha enough to give his heart away again? Stiles got burned pretty badly the last time he did that. Brett isn’t really like that thought.

So what the fuck? 

“Stiles,” the Alpha calls softly, “please stop running away from me. If you can tell me a genuine no, then I’ll stop,” Brett says, turning the spark away from the dragon fountain.

“All I’ve been doing is saying no,” Stiles argues, ignoring the way his body gravitates into the wolf’s arms on its own.

The Alpha rumbles in his chest at the contact, “and I hear the lie every single time.” Brett cups the spark’s face so fucking gently. Tender to the point that it gives Stiles goosebumps. The wolf leans in, dropping his voice to a whisper, “truthfully tell me no,” Brett’s eyes flick to his lips, stroking his cheek with his thumb. 

He wants to say something cheesy, like he can’t or something like that. Except stubbornness wills out and Stiles whispers, “no,” feeling the lie stutter his heartbeat.

“Lie,” Brett mumbles, finally sealing their mouths together in a kiss. The spark can try to deny the small whimper in the back of his throat, but they both heard it. The Alpha groans, hands splaying at Stiles’ back, keeping them close. There goes the flicker of a thought that Brett was only doing this for sex. 

Because even as his tongue slips into Stiles’ mouth, the wolf is gentle. Hesitant, ensuring that Stiles is accepting. His hold is sure, but if the spark tried to pull away, he’s sure the Alpha would let him. Brett is suggestive, not forceful. Stiles’ could have prevented the kiss if he really wanted to. They both know the spark isn’t being truthful, just stubborn as hell for the sake of protecting himself. Yet Brett is treating him like something precious. Like he cares. Like the wolf has feelings for him too.

It took a month.

One fucking month.

Stiles likes Brett.

And Brett likes him.

It’s too much at once. A thousand wings are flapping in the spark’s stomach. His brain has gone fuzzy like he’s high. When in reality, all it is is Brett. His mint tea scented cologne with a little spice to it. The caring way he holds Stiles. Not like he’ll break, but like the spark is something to be cherished. To be loved. 

It’s intense.

Too much and nowhere near enough.

Stiles doesn’t know how to deal with the fact that he wants more. So much fucking more. Every single thing Brett’s been saying and then some.

Stiles pulls back, struggling to breathe normally. They weren’t even heavily making out. It was just an open mouthed kiss and here he is barely remembering what air is. His eyes are hooded, but the smug look on the Alpha’s face tells him his eyes are glowing purple. That the wolf is really affecting him with no way to hide it.

“Too much?” Brett asks, cupping the spark’s chin, his thumb bumping Stiles’ swollen bottom lip.

“Maybe,” Stiles pants, backing away. Ready to run again. He needs to think. To process. To fully understand what the fuck just happened and the fact he let it happen. 

This time, the Alpha doesn’t look hurt. Rather, confident and he lets Stiles go. Brett calls after him, “I’m patient, you know. I won’t give up on you, Gorgeous.”

With a smile, Stiles slips back into the building, hoping the wolf is telling the truth.

ask game that you reblogged

"get them randomly assigned as your lab partner for a whole semester, get trapped with them on a broken elevator for ten hours, and they’re your employee trainer for your new job at McDonalds"

bench trio?

Oh darn, not to be mean or offensive, but I think I would cry if I was stuck in a broken elevator for any of them. I think I’d have ranboo be my employee trainer at McDonald’s, tubbo be my lab partner and be stuck in a lift with Tommy.

I feel like Tubbo would be good at science and actually listen to the safety instructions and then I could doodle in my book all the time but also help him when he needs it? I don’t know but there is the possibility that he wants to make shit explode and that’s not the best but hey, I’m no little shit who spoils people’s fun.

I would have Ranboo as my McDonald’s employee trainer because he’s just a perfect person (I don’t mean that weirdly) and I wouldn’t wanna tire him out because I am an annoyingly little fucker and one of the places I wouldn’t be annoying is when I’m starting my job, I don’t need to make enemies with all of the staff. And he’d be so patient which is amazing because I have zero fucking brain cells left in this dipshit of a person. And bonus: he’s funny as hell.

I would be stuck in a lift with Tommy because he’s the only one I wouldn’t feel bad being extremely annoying to because believe it or not, I am, according to my peers, way more annoying than Tommy. At first and at last and in the middle. I feel that Tommy would be really concerned at first because of the fucking broken lift and then he’d just go YouTuber mode or just be pissed at me like most people are. I didn’t choose Ranboo or Tubbo because I don’t want to annoy poor Ran and Tubbo is a homosexual homophobe and he’d find out I like women some time during the 10 hours.

Anyways, hope you enjoyed reading my weird ass reasoning and have a lovely day.
