#i love ian i love him ahh!

[gardenerian]

hey mel! i was thinking about ian and mickey (shocker!) and i wondered, do you think ian was mostly worried about his bipolar disorder when it came to his relationship with mickey? he did think that caleb would have left him once he’d share about his disorder and with trevor even as he started being maniac, not wanting to be on meds etc. he didn’t think of breaking up for his sake. when ian is hiding, coming down from the mania and has a talk with trevor, he doesn’t really think that what happened might have made trevor sad/worried about him etc. ( as trevor didn’t care about him at all but mostly about the attention being shifted lmao ). i thought that if ian really cared about his other relationships he would have had ‘the talk’ about it like he did with mickey in season 5 and season 10, right? but both trevor and caleb seemed not to care and just mind their business whenever ian’s mood ‘shifted’. would it also be something that messed up with his self esteem, having boyfriends that didn’t seem to care, leaving him behind when it got too much or seeing as a bother? i mean. i do think that he has never loved anyone else apart from mickey and when i think of his past relationships and notice these things, i feel like he really just wanted a distraction or forced himself to move on gaslighting himself? what are your thoughts on the matter if you want to share your thoughts of course!

oh hi wow hello. been a minute since i got an ask like this, thank you! let’s see if my brain’s still got it, hmm?

i think…. ultimately, mickey is the only person ian ever saw a longterm future with. even when he was very sick, he saw mickey as his partner. once the diagnosis and its impact came, i think ian stopped seeing a future for a while. and though i do think part of the s5 breakup is for mickey’s sake, i also think it’s just a result of a desperate, clawing teenage grief. ian was always someone who knew himself and knew what he wanted… once that foundation was shaken, he just shut down. 

so much of ian’s relationship with caleb is combative - almost like he’s daring caleb to confirm his fears about himself/his past and leave him. even still, i think it’s less of a fear that caleb himself will leave him, but an overarching fear that everyone and anyone would leave him. he’s still healing and his post-diagnosis confidence is shaky. part of this journey for ian is just figuring out what’s possible. i don’t think ian’s feelings for caleb are particularly strong, i just think the relationship is a catalyst for ian to start moving forward. caleb is a poorly-written character and that whole arc is super disappointing, but ultimately it allows ian to start imagining a future for himself… just one without caleb.

i always thought that ian was a bit more invested in trevor… his feelings didn’t match those for mickey, ofc, but i think he was finding his way a bit more. or at least, he was enjoying who he was with trevor? still, i don’t think he was thinking of trevor in any longterm capacity - the pacing of that relationship was weird. i don’t think caleb or trevor really knew ian, i don’t think ian really let them know him. i think they saw either what they wanted him to be, or what he projected to them. and i don’t think he let himself know them, really, either. i’ve always said that ian was looking to fulfill different needs with caleb and trevor, but it was never partnership. you’re right, i think that made it easy for them to let ian go. ian always worried about what he had to offer... i think mickey is the only one who just wanted ian.

this is all to say that yes, i think mickey was the only person that ian wanted to be part of his future. he’s the only one that ian let himself imagine a future with. for a lot of his s6-s9 story, ian did a lot of rebuilding, but i don’t think it ever truly included love. he made a lot for himself, but it was never fully realized. mickey electrified it all, y’know? so when it comes to his bipolar, and moments when the future feels uncertain, i think it scares ian. if his mental illness makes him feel unreliable or unworthy, of course he’d worry about losing mickey again. this is the only relationship that allowed ian to be his true, entire self - but if you feel like you might lose yourself, what happens then? THANKFULLY mickey is steadfast and devoted and so patient, and ian learned to feel safe in that!!! he will trust himself!!!! and he will trust mickey to help him when he can’t!!! 

how’d i do?

I was really inspired by smoshs most recent video where they go back and rewatch their first video appearances so here is a request!!

this does not have to be based on a specific video but just more of an idea.

I would love an ian x reader who is on the crew but makes appearances here and there like spencer. where they react to a compilation of them basically being in love because they are a really huge ship in the fandom, and it makes them realize feelings, and you know how it goes from there!!

Shipped || Ian Hecox x reader

⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ masterlist • smosh masterlist  ⋆˚｡⋆୨୧⋆

summary: when you and ian watch fan compilations of yourselves for a video, you realize how much you actually like each other

word count: 2.4k

warnings: swearing

a/n: ahh this is such a cute idea! i’m so sorry it took me so long to get to love, hope you enjoy 💌

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~°~❦~°~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     “Hey guys, today (Y/n) and I are going to be getting married!”

     There was a chorus of laughter from the crew as Ian went off-script. 

     “That is not what’s happening,” you said, in your best news anchor voice. 

     “She said no, cut the video,” Ian joked, spiking the camera.

     You laughed, rolling your eyes at him as he continued the intro.

     “But seriously, it is Valentine’s Day and to show you all how much we love and appreciate you, we’re going to be reacting to some fan compilations. Specifically compilations of us, because apparently, and Erin would be so proud of me for using this phrase, you ship it.”

     Ian gestured between the two of you. It was true. You’d started out at Smosh as an editor but after appearing in a TNTL Crew episode, the audience loved you and you kept making more and more appearances on camera.

     You were almost a regular cast member at this point. The new Tommy, people called you. And ever since you had begun appearing more regularly, fans had started shipping you with Ian immediately.

     It helped that you two were good friends and that most of the videos you were in, he was in as well. You and Ian had been close for a while now, ever since you’d started at Smosh a few years back.  

     You’d never thought of you guys as anything more than that though. Friends. But it was fun imagining the fans analyzing your interactions and making more of them. You couldn’t wait to watch the compilations.

     “We have compiled some edits and videos that you guys have made that are apparently about me and Ian,” you said. “I guess now that Shayne and Courtney are married and there aren’t enough clips of Angela and Mater, we’re ‘the ship’.”

     Ian nodded, laughing. “We haven’t watched these yet but I can’t wait to get started so let’s jump right in, shall we?”

     “We shall. This first one is called ‘ian and (y/n) being endgame for 17 minutes straight’ by rogertheredditor. Do we need to give a definition of endgame for Daddy Ian?”

     “Hey!” Ian protested. “I watched avengers.”

     That got a laugh from the crew and you put a hand on Ian’s shoulder.

     “Ok,” you said. “Let’s dive in.”

     You pressed play on the video and watched as clips of you and Ian came on the screen. Most of them were from videos you were in together, Reddit stories and TNTLs and challenge pit. You leaned your elbow on the table, giving the laptop all of your attention. 

 ───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     “Oh my gosh, Ian you can’t say that on camera!” You exclaimed as Shayne laughed, the iPad almost falling out of his hands. 

     “Well if James Charles didn’t want me talking about it, then he shouldn’t have done it,” Ian defended. 

     You smacked Ian on the shoulder as you laughed and he shoved your hand away yelling ‘cooties!’

     This only made you giggle more and you threw a pillow at him. He caught it, pretending to repeatedly hit you with it.

 ───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     You pressed pause. “I don’t even remember what you said. I just know we had to bleep it out.”

     “Oh I do,” Ian said, laughing. “It was—”

     “Next clip!” You interrupted him, pressing play.

 ───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     “Watch this” you told the camera, glancing at Ian in the stool. “This is about to be the fastest bit in TNTL history.”

     Ian looked at you with confusion in his eyes as you walked towards him, leaning in to whisper something in his ear.

     He immediately spit his water and you clapped, feeling triumphant. Ian choked on water as he lost it. 

     “Wait, now we have to know what you said!” Courtney exclaimed, coming out from behind the divider.

     “Inside joke,” you informed her. 

     “Wait, (Y/n),” Ian said, gesturing to you to come closer, a mischievous smile on his face. “Remember…”

     He leaned in and whispered something in your ear and you both started laughing again.

    “Get a room!” Angela called from off camera. 

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     “Dude, I remember that,” Ian said, stopping the video. 

     “And we did get a room after that,” you joked. You remembered that moment too, you and Ian laughing over something no one else would’ve understood. You didn’t realize there were so many of these kinds of clips of you and Ian. 

     “(Y/n) stop! They’re gonna believe you and then this clip is going to be put in edits.”

     “You’re welcome Ian and (Y/n) shippers,” you winked at the camera.

     “Wait, we need a ship name,” Ian announced.

     “Put our ship name on the comments,” you said, starting the video again.

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     “Oh my gosh, I’m gonna puke.”

     You waved your hand in front of your face as you tried to swallow—whatever was in your mouth.

     “What you are eating—or, drinking—is called ‘The Birthday Smoothie’,” Courtney read from the card. “Anchovies, birthday sprinkles, spice drops, and cream of wheat.”

     You gagged and Ian put a hand on your back, laughing. 

     “Can we fly in the puke bucket for (Y/n)?” He asked, looking at you in amusement as you grabbed on to the table, covering your mouth. 

     Courtney handed it to you and you turned, emptying the contents of your mouth into the bucket. Ian rubbed your back as everyone reacted. 

     “You’re ok,” he chuckled.

     You came up a moment later, wiping under your eyes and fixing your hair.

     “That was disgusting.”

     “You’re so dramatic,” Ian rolled his eyes. “It couldn’t have been that bad.”

     “Oh yeah, tough guy? Care to try it then.” You gestured to the smoothie still sitting on the table.

     “I would but—I’m on a diet so…”

     You giggled, rolling your eyes. 

    “Oh, you have a—” Ian trailed off, reaching to carefully pull a strand of hair off of your mic, tucking it behind your ear. “There.”

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     And that was the end of the video. You sat there for a moment. You of course remembered that Eat it or Yeet it—in fact it was only filmed a couple weeks ago.

But you hadn’t realized how sweet Ian had been.

     You couldn’t get the image of him rubbing your back out of your head. Of him tucking your hair behind your ears.

     You turned to Ian now, only to find he was already looking at you. 

     “Um—well that was the first compilation. What did you think Ian?”

     “I think I looked good in all those clips so I’m not complaining.” Ian shrugged.

     “Ok Buddy,” you teased. “On to the next one. This one’s called ‘more ian and (y/n) clips that make anthony jealous’ by amangelalover9. Let’s jump in.”

     This video had some of the same clips from the first one but others were ones you hadn’t seen yet. A lot were times you and Ian shared the screen but others were simply moments where one of you mentioned or talked about the other one. 

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

    “I was with Ian the other day…”

     “You know who would think this was so funny? (Y/n).”

     “Wait let me text Ian and settle this.”

     “Bro, (Y/n) said the most wild shit last night…”

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     You watched with Ian, laughing and remembering each part that came on.

     A clip appeared that was older than many of the others—one of your earlier videos, judging by your hairstyle.

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     “Hey guys, welcome back to challenge pit!” Keith announced. “Today we’re going to be competing to see who can win at doing household chores—but with a twist. I’m talking swords and shit.”

     “Swords and shit? Title of your sex tape.” Ian leaned over and mumbled to you.

     You busted up laughing and everyone else turned to see what was so funny.

     “Sorry Keith,” you wheezed. “Keep going with the intro. Please finish.”

     “Also the title of your sex tape.”

───────↻ ◁ || ▷ ↺───────

     Ian reached forward pausing the video on the laptop. “I remember that day.”

     “It was at the end of a shoot week, right?” You asked.

     Ian nodded, looking wistful. “Yeah. I remember it was the first time I made you laugh.”

     “Must have been the very end of a shoot week and I was delirious,” you teased, but your mind was on his words.

     Ian clutched his chest in mock offense. You giggled, nudging his shoulder as you pressed play again.

     As you watched more of the video and laughed with Ian, you couldn’t get his words out of your head. 

     I remember it was the first time I made you laugh

     He kept track of that?

     Eventually, the video ended and you moved on to the final one. 

     “That was so good,” Ian chuckled. “We are so Shourtney coded. Like I feel like if we announced that we were secretly married, no one would be shocked.”

     “Again with the marriage? Is this whole video a secret proposal or something?”

     “Only if you’d say yes,” Ian countered. 

     You knew he was joking, but something about his eyes—about the way he was looking at you—made your heart beat faster. It was probably just the effects of being in a video about you and Ian being in a ‘relationship’, but you found yourself imagining what it would be like if it was real.

     You had a sudden image of leaning across the table and bringing your lips to his. 

     You shook it off. “The jury’s out on that one. Meanwhile, our final video is titled ‘ian and (y/n) putting kelce and taylor to shame and giving us more feels than that one scene from marley and me’ and this one was posted by pandalover717.”

     The crew laughed at the long title and you kept talking. 

     “This is a shorter one—”

     “Shayne,” Ian coughed. A loud ‘hey!’ came from off-camera. You ignored them.

     “—so we’ll see what it entails. Let’s go.”

     You started the video and a Taylor Swift song started playing, dramatizing shots of you and Ian talking or hugging or falling on each other as you laughed.

     I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

    Darling, you’re the one I want 

     Was this how everyone saw you and Ian? You had always been close but—had you been missing something.

    I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this 

    Darling you’re the one I want 

     How did you see you and Ian? How did he? You tried to think of your relationship from the perspective of these edits and fan videos.

     I want to drive away with you 

     I want your complications too.

     You tried to stop your heart from racing. You were starting to see Ian in a whole new light. 

     I want to drive away with you. 

     I want your complications too.

     Seeing all of these moments that you’d had with Ian—you were beginning to form a clearer picture that you hadn’t been able to see before. 

     I want your dreary Mondays 

     Wrap your arms around me, baby boy 

     Maybe one you hadn’t let yourself see before.

     Because you and Ian were friends. Best friends. 

     But what if you could be more than that. 

     You were lost in your thoughts as the video ended and Ian tapped a button on the laptop.

     “That song slaps every time,” Ian announced, turning to you. “What’d you think of that one?”

     You shook yourself out of it, answering Ian. “I love a good edit. These were all so good and it’s so much fun to see how you guys interpret interactions and find little hidden meanings in things.”

     “Or not-so-hidden meanings,” Ian said. He sounded so sincere that it threw you off.

     “What?”

     “Nothing. What—what was your favorite moment from all of those clips? Personally mine is when you lost your lunch after that smoothie.”

     You smacked his arm and he ducked away from you, holding up his arms in surrender. 

     “Not funny Ian, my stomach wasn’t right for a week. And I don’t know if I have a favorite, there were a lot of good ones. By some crazy coincidence basically all of the videos I’ve been in have been with this guy.”

      Ian was silent a moment.

     “And—and what if it wasn’t?” He finally said. “A coincidence, I mean.”

     “What?”

     “It was at the beginning but then I, um, might’ve asked to be put in every video you were going to be in,” Ian admitted, running a hand along the back of his neck nervously. 

     “Why?” Your voice came out breathless. “Why would you—”

      “Well,” Ian started, crossing his arms over his chest. “For starters, how else would people have enough content to make edits about us?”

     “Ian.”

     “Fine. At first it was just to hang out with you more,” Ian said, “We were such good friends and—and then it was more than that. Y’know, once I, kind of, fell in love with you.”

     You could’ve sworn your heart stopped. The room was silent. As far as you were concerned it was just you and Ian.  

     “Is this some bit for the video or—”

     “It’s not a bit,” Ian confessed, smiling ruefully. “I wish it was, because that I’d be good at. I’m not good at this. At emotions and feelings and—”

     But he never got to finish that sentence because you leaned over and kissed him. He kissed you back, his lips crashing into yours with an intensity you’d never seen from him. 

     When you broke apart, the entire room erupted into applause and shouts of ‘oh my god’ and ‘guys!’ and ‘pay up shayne, where’s my 30 bucks?’. That last one was Chanse.

     But you hardly heard any of it. You could only smile at Ian as he smiled back at you. 

     “Wow,” you said. “That was not how I imagined this video ending.”

     “Me neither,” Ian said. “But a guy can dream.”

     You smiled, thinking about how Ian had felt about you all this time. How you felt about him now. It would be a miracle if you could stop smiling.

      You looked away from Ian and towards the camera as Spencer spoke from behind it. “I think I speak for all the fans when I say we are going to have a field day with this video in our next edits. This is straight out of a Lynn Painter book”

     “We?” You asked, intertwining your fingers with Ian’s at the same time as Ian said,

“You read Lynn Painter books? 

     “Yeah,” Spencer shrugged “They’re dope as hell.”

     You giggled as he continued, a small smirk on his face. “And as for the edits…

Who do you think pandalover717 is?”

Kalvare - Vaanathi x ArulMozhi

The young maiden with her trembling hands as she walked into the chamber that will be shared by her and her love, the one that stole her heart for a long time, her Prince, her King and her husband now.

What if she couldn't satisfy him or his needs? What if she was not that beautiful for him to admire? Her covered body would be fully visible to his eyes now and only his forever. Will he leave her, seeing she is not a woman enough for him?

Each step she took made her heart thump faster, and at last, she reached inside. Her eyes looked around to find no one, as the dim lights made the place more surreal. Cold hair brushed her face and made her hair flow, and just like that, her eyes found the one she always searched for: her love and her heart.

He stands on the balcony, and the moonlight shines through him, making him look like Devendhiran(Indira), who could steal anyone's heart with his shining beauty.

And just like that, all the trembling thoughts left the young and beautiful princess as her husband's soft eyes shined upon her, pouring so much love out of them.

He slowly raised his hand and opened his palm, indicating her to place hers, which she did. A simple touch of their hands made their legs go jelly, but luckily, he was there to catch her, as always.

"Finally, my wife found the way to our chamber as she did with my heart," he whispered. The Arulmozhi Varman smiled at Vaanathi, his love and his princess, whom he would always cherish and never let go.

He placed her before him, her back resting against his chest, his arms encircling her protectively. They stood in silence for a moment, simply feeling the warmth of each other's presence.

"You find your comfort?" He asked, to which Vaanathi hummed 'Hmm' as she looked at the moon and the stars shining down upon them.

"Is the chilly weather okay for my Queen?" Arulmozhi chuckled as he whispered into her ears, causing Vaanthi to blush as she hummed again, 'Hmm.' This caused him to smirk as he looked at her, who was trying hard not to look at him because of her shyness.

"Will you tell me your wishes tonight? Or just humming with your sweet voice for me to decrypt it?" he whispered as his lips brushed against her ear, causing her chest to heave and her breath to be rapid.

Vaanathi turned slightly, just enough to look into his eyes. With a smile, she opened her mouth only for a beautiful melody to be left from her mouth.

En Aasai En Aasai Naana Solvaen En Aasai Naana Solvaen En Aasai Neeyae Sonnal Kannalae Aamam Enbaenae (What my desire is…I can always tell you. But if you can express (guess) it yourself. I will concur with my eyes.)

His hold on her tightened as he smiled at her words and how she sang her feelings. "Is that so?" He replied as he lifted her and walked down to their bed. He placed her gently like a flower and settled beside her. He chuckled once again at her shyness. "What happens next, then?" he asked, smirking at her. Vaanathi once again replied with a song as she continued her feminine desire to be outspoken with her song to her thief.

Engengae Udathum Poagum Angangae Uyirum Pogum Anbala Aalacholvaenae Valimigum Idangal Valimigaa Idangal Thamizhukku Therigindrathey Valimigum Idangal Valimigaa Idangal Thangalukku Therigindrathaa (Wherever your lips are going. My breath is following them. I am asking you to rule me with your Love. The parts that pain. The parts that don't. Tamil(ian) always knows. The parts that pain. The parts that don't. Do you know at all?)

Arulmozhi left her speechless as he smiled, 'Ahh.' He slowly lifted her face and cupped it, playing feather-like kisses all over her face. His hands started to untie her saree, slowly removing the jewels that had hidden her beauty.

Vaanthi smiled as he slowly made her lie down on the bed. He then started to worship her and teach her everything she needed, and soft music once again left her mouth for his ears alone.

Kalvarae kalvarae Kalvarae kalvarae Kanpugum Kalvarae kaikondu Paareero Kankondu Saereero Kalai Solli Thaareero (O Mr.Thief (!!!!)… Who is immersed in my eyes. Looking through hands. Entering through the eyes. Please teach me that art. )

The room dimmed with laughter, moans, and lovable words echoing through it, sealing the life of two gentle hearts.

Note: I am planning for another one-shot of my favourite couple, VanMozhi, where the gentle Prince teaches her the art of intimacy. Then, I heard this song, Kalvare, from Raavanan. My god, is this a coincidence or what? My hand couldn't wait to type everything so that I could read them.

Homelander x female reader

Prologue ~

A loud beep startles me awake, groaning i turn to shut off my phone to stop the alarm, sitting up groggily in an attempt to wake myself up and yawning. I open up my phone and am greeted by 20+ missed messages and a few missed calls from my groupchat. Blinking in annoyance and still half-asleep i open the app up and lay back down.

Francis 🤑: Heyoo!!! We still hanging out tomorrow gang 😎😎

J-boss ⚡️: get this shit off my screen bro

Jack 💥: i mean if yall are down i got nothing planned this weekend

J-boss ⚡️: will there be bitches?

Izan 🧐: perchance…

Ian 🔥: GUYS WE SHOULD GO TRY THE NEW FLAVOR AT LITTLE CEASARS

Sandra 💋: shut up fatass… and im only going if y/n and carla are going 💁🏻‍♀️.

Carla 🧚🏻‍♂️: francis already asked our parents and they told him he can only go if i come with⚡️⚡️⚡️

Francis 🤑: i hate u

Jack 💥: i wouldnt take that man 😭

Izan 🧐: Y/N ANSWERRRR

Izan 🧐: wait all of you are going right?

Everyone: Yes!!

*10am*

You: hi guys im going

J-boss ⚡️: nonchalant ahh

You: im gonna stop you right there pal

I roll my eyes and throw my blanket off me, planting my feet onto the carpet floor beneath me. I walk over to my closet and rub the sleep out of my eyes, the only light serving me is the one coming from the sun seeping through my window.

After picking out a cute outfit i go and wash up, throwing on my clothes and looking myself in the mirror. I had chosen a black, lowcut longsleeve, tight shirt with a denim backless zip up high rise jumpsuit that flared at the ends i decide to finish off the outfit with a pair of black boots. I do a little twirl, satisfied with my smooth eyeliner and good outfit choice. Opening my phone back up to quickly text them that im ready and for someone to come pick me up.

I hear a knock at my front door and grab my black star shaped purse. “Bye mom!! Ill see you later love you!!” I call out and she reminds me to text her when im on my way back. I skip out the door and lock it behind me. “Sooo the mall right? Is everyone there yet” jack shrugs “i dunno everyone just said to hurry, also j-boss is in the backseat” i step into the passenger seat of his car and we head to the mall.

About 20 minutes later we pull up to the parking lot and walk into the macys, quickly spotting francis and carla talking to each other until they notice us “HEYYY Y/N” i wince at carla’s enthusiasm “heyy we should probably quiet down being out in public and all” she giggles and latches onto my arm. “Hey dont forget IM in charge of the card” francis snatches a card from carlas hand and they start bickering. I roll my eyes and sit down at a bench with jason and jack “hey when did Ian, Izan, and Sandra say when they were coming?”

As if on cue they walk into the macys, all arguing about who gets to ride shotgun next time. “Hi guys!! Looks like the whole gang is here right.. heh!” I playfully jab jack on the side waiting for everyone to laugh “good one right…!” Sandra cringes and only Izan laughs “if izan is the only one laughing thats a sign you should stop trying to be funny” I look over at jason with a glare.

*3 hours later*

“Ok i think thats enough shopping..” i look over at sandra and carla, all of us carrying multiple bags on each arm. “I should have let francis keep the card.. dads gonna KILL me” carla groans and we continue walking through the mall, or more like trudging along with all our bags. Until we finally catch a glimpse of all the boys in a vr video game store screaming “what the fuck are they doing??”

Sandra walks in and we see them all connected to the same game, their point of view projected on a giant screen. “I think its like a zombie apocalypse thing ive played this before” i sneak up behind ian and pinch his neck, he squeals and throws the headset off, turning to me with his fists raised ready to fight. I raise my hands in mock surrender and burst out laughing with sandra and carla, the boys take off their headsets to look at ian, bewildered, sending us into a further fit of laughter.

The store owner walks up to us and tells us to leave “whoops…” i let out a last laugh and wipe a tear from my eye. “Bro ian youre really getting butched around by y/n” they laugh at him and we walk out of the mall after buying ourselves a drink at one of the stands. I take a sip of my horchata and giggle. “Hey wait i gotta tie my laces!!” We turn to Francis who is far behind us and as i begin to walk towards him i feel the ground below me slip from my feet. I scream and feel myself plummet, my skin feeling as though its warping around me until i slam against a grassy surface.

I look up and groan, hearing the rest of my friends make noises of pain and confusion behind me. “What the hell..???” I sit up and look around, there seems to be a television crew but they look startled and start making their way towards us, along with a group of random bystanders. I try to stand up and i look around me, noticing we are in a completely different city “yo where the fuck are we??” I hear jason exclaim behind me. Ian points at the giant building in front of us “is that the fucking vought tower” i gasp and my jaw drops, the crowd around us getting larger and i notice some of them wearing vought merch “theres no way this is real right?” I turn to look at them trying to make sense of the situation.

A loud thud surprises me and the crowd breaks apart, now taking photos and turning their attention partly to the person. The figure gets closer and I realize its THE homelander.

HII thank you to anyone who read this, I’ve never posted any kind of writing and i kind of just came up with this on a whim. I know it looks like WATTPAD writing 🫣 but please let me cook, by the time anyone is reading this i would have probably have published more parts so if you like it lucky you, if you don’t then im sorry for releasing more of this vermin onto earth 😭🙏🏾 (tips/ideas welcomed)

[passionartx]

Hi!! Firstly, I LOVE your Tangled AU, so glad to see Tails getting more focus in AU’s. I wondering: Do you have any general Tails related headcannons?

Hiya! 💛✨ Thank you so, so much! And ooo this is such a fun question. Tbh, I have too many, I could write an essay! This account isn’t as popular as my au blog since I’m pretty inactive on it so probably only like 3 people will see this… but I hope those hypothetical 3 people enjoy my inevitable waffle and chaos! <3

Will also use this opportunity to hype up some friends and people who’s work I admire!!!

A few of my favourite Tails Headcannons! :

- I love the idea that him and Sonic were 4 and 11 when they first met.

- Sonic will always be Tails’ big brother first and foremost… however, as Aosth Tails put it: “You’re my mom, you’re my dad and you’re my picket fence!”. Sonic having accidentally become the closest thing Tails has to a parental figure has a hold on my heart and I love how writers like @chaoxfix and my homie @myyla-x portray this in their fics!

- After having first met (and honestly even a few years in) if Sonic ever had to leave Tails alone for a while for whatever reason, maybe to protect him from a particular battle, Tails would deal with hardcore abandonment issues. Poor lil guy would fear Sonic wouldn’t come back, that he didn’t want him around anymore (which is made 10 times worse if you headcannon he was abandoned by his parents). Lil guy wouldn’t know what to do with himself <\3

- Tails reminds Shadow of Maria. Probably my favourite Tails headcannon! Though I guess it’s more of a Shadow headcannon… am I using this as an excuse to talk about it? More likely then you’d think. But ahh, those blue eyes, yellowish fur, sweet gentle childlike wonder, love of life and learning + Ian flynn has confirmed given her upbringing Maria was prob a bit of a science kid. Ah <3 Plus that brings the idea of Sonic and Tails’ dynamic reminding him of his with Maria’s and that makes me want to cry. I actually have a WIP fic about this headcannon but it’s been a wip for like a year… hopefully one day I’ll finish it cause I’m literally obsessed with the idea and want to see it through.

^ Also extra nostalgic about this headcannon cause my friendship with @sh-0-w-1-sh literally started cause they were looking for art ideas and I was like TAILS REMINDING SHADOW OF MARIA!!! And here we are almost a year later!

- For better or for worse he’s picked up a lot of his big bros traits. I’m talking puns, poses, that lil nose rub and foot tapping, occasional cockiness, being self sacrificial, the list goes on. Once he realises this or anyone else especially Sonic points it out, he’d probably be super embarrassed and deny it <3

Speaking of picking up habits…

- While he would definitely be scared by certain situations like this ( << the Starline issue 35 and 36 situation being a good example with other people being at risk and him not really understanding the situation or his role in it ) I think Tails would be pretty desensitised to being kidnapped or hostage situations at this point. He’d probably just find it an inconvenience more then anything or be entertained by the hypothetical villains incompetence. Me and @myyla-x had a conversation about this idea once and… it’s been like 6 months and we’re still talking about it. One day that’ll make sense. We got a lil carried away. Just a lil. Anyway someone get this kid therapy. <3

- An already pretty popular one but I felt the need to mention it cause I relate, but he gets so sucked into projects and his inventions that hours and hours can go by and he just zones out and forgot to eat… well, anything but mints at least.

- Tails is a theatre kid. :D Is this self projection? … maybe. If nobody else gets me @guiltypandas gets me <3 :,)

- I think Tails would be in denial if Sonic died. As smart and logical as that little guy is, given how Sonic has beat the unbeatable, has come back before and seems invisible… yeah. <\3 I think he’d always hold onto the hope that it would only be a matter of time until Sonic comes back… even if this time that wouldn’t be the case… my friend @whitecatindisguise actually wrote an amazing fic about this when we talked about the idea called He’s (Not) Coming Back (which if you haven’t already you should totally check out cause it’s amazing! And a heart breaking! The best kinda fic :,) )

- I think Tails has a heart of gold…but I also think depending on certain circumstances if he hadn’t have met Sonic he could have gone down a much darker path (which I guess ended up being somewhat proven with Nine in Sonic Prime!). Me and @casperangel have screamed about this too many times then I can count and it haunts me.

- Tails is a sweetie, a cutey patooty, like an adorable little house cat… but similarly (and yet again as proven thanks to Prime!) Tails definitely has a feral side. Especially if he hasn’t gotten enough sleep or gets his mints confiscated. @dunkinbublin and @studioboner ‘s accounts are absolute goldmines when it comes to Tails multitasking being an adorable lil guy and a feral lil menace!

- Tails and Tangle have sibling energy! I mean, Tails is basically everyone’s adopted little brother, Knuckles and Amy especially, but I think him and Tangles dynamic isn’t talked about enough and I’m super glad we’ve had some sweet moments with them in the comics! @pocketscribbs is feeding the Tails and Tangle nation fr <3

This was super fun! Thank you so much again for asking and I hope you have an amazing day! And if someone actually read all of this… you’re a trooper :,) <3

[mewhenthhe]

Ahhh thank you for sharing your oc lore!!! It was all delightful and the main (?) quartet seem great. Honestly the whole world and cast sounds so so cool (extremely tickled by the image of Ian turning into a flower to sleep) but your world lore in general sounds so neat?? Like the naming lore especially is v cool. Do the cast also get like elemental themed powers in addition to being physically themed around their element?

i’m so glad you liked it ahh!! i was also tickled by the sleeping ian thing X3 one of my fav parts of him :) and glad you liked the naming lore i had fun with that part as well!! it is indeed a quartet made up of ian, alyce, kei and ryu (who are all in the read mode my pinned post i think if you’d like to know more!!) there’s also a 5th but she’s kinda a 5th wheel haha. regarding your question, there’s actually a bit of lore around that as well! i don’t think i’ve ever explained it in detail so i’ll do that here if u don’t mind :3

WARNING THE POST GETS SUPER LONG SORRY WENT OVERBOARD!!

tldr: no, with the exception of maybe fire elements? though there is a species (sprites) that appear less humanoid and do have “element powers”

look under here if you want more lore. bats my eyelashes at u

in my oc universe, there are 3 overall like “species” of sentient beings: sprites, humans, and elementals. all elementals and sorite fall under the general 4 categories of air, fire, water, and nature (very ATLA, lol).

elementals more closely resemble humans: the logic behind them is that they in some way evolved in a way which allows them to best survive in the context of their given element. here’s how that plays out across the elements/what you’d expect from an elemental of each type:

fire: these guys run at super high body heats and are generally resistant if not completely impervious to burns. ones who run especially hot can sometimes channel or “create” fire a la firebender. lol

plant: generally resemble humans in most ways, though their life force is connected to a sprout (of a certain plant species) that grows out of the top of their heads, which will generally reflect their mood & well being (by like, wilting) and will grow/blossom as they age. it also does all the fun sleep stuff that i mentioned with ian. when they’re thriving, they may sprout small blossoms or leaves on their skin (corresponding to their given plant type). they also gain energy in the same way as plants (though can generally digest most foods) and thus get extremely tired/essentially immobile in long periods of darkness (and sometimes appear tinged green because…chlorophyll). i have a lot to say about them can you tell they’re my fav guys i made HAHA,, take basically living human-looking plants

water: pretty close to the general idea of “mermaids”, but each water-element is generally connected to/based on a specific species of fish or underwater mammal, which can reflect in appearance, family dynamic, size, and behavior. they also tend to have fins/scales/gills on the upper body & face & freaky eyes lol. hybrids of these guys with humans tend to lose some of the “realistic fish” aspects though, lol.

air: think “harpy”, though air elements can also have traits/wings/whatever from flying mammals or even insects (they also follow specific species generally). air-elements tend to fluctuate the most in terms of anthropomorphic appearance (ie: one might have a beak and one might not, one might have digitigrade legs and one might have humanoid legs, etc). alyce is one of these & shes based on a raven! there’s also a link there w/golden feathers and royalty but that’s so unrelated to what u asked lol

now the part you actually asked for: each element also has a corresponding SPRITE variety. these appear far less humanoid, love far longer lifespans, do not interact much with the other two, and have what you’d think of as “elemental powers” while elementals do not (ie, shooting fire with little effort/creating magma, controlling rain/tides, blossoming flowers at will, controlling the wind/airbending). marlowe (the 5th wheel) is one of these! she cool i just suck big time at drawing her

i would talk about how the elements specifically apply to my ocs but you probably already fell asleep by now/j SORRY THIS WAS SO LONG IF UR STILL HERE… hope it was kinda interesting X3

[mysticallystilinski]

i loved ur ian work omgg. so glad someone is finally writing for his fine ass😭

AHH STAWP ILYYY 🤍 i promise i will be writing for him more and hopefully a part 2 to my last fic 😊

Jamie and Jenny Chapter 21

AO3

“It has to be special,” she is telling Claire, “it being his first and all.”

 

Claire is impressed by Jenny’s  thoughtfulness. It is, after all, their first Father’s Day without Brian.

 

That she wishes to make sure Jamie is honored, remembered, as her de-facto dad, that says a lot about her. All good.

 

“I think something that comes from the heart would be best. Something that shows how you feel.”

 

“Thanks Claire.” She hugs her and runs off.

 

She brings him breakfast in bed.

 

“What is this then?” He sits up and grins at his sister.

 

“Happy Father’s Day.”

 

He blinks away the tears that are threatening to fall.

 

“Jenny I, ahh thank you.”

 

“I ah, wrote you something.”

 

She shyly hands it over.

 

He reads it and the tears can no longer be held in.

 

‘Jamie,

Happy Father’s Day. Thank you. Thank you that I am not in care, grieving the loss of dad and mam alone. Thank you for seeing to me, I know you didn’t have too. Thank you for holding me when the nightmares come, for making sure I do my homework, for not fussing to much about Ian. Thank you for being the best big brother and dad a lass could have.

I love you. “

 

“I love you too. So so much. Thank you Jenny. I will cherish this.”

 

He has it framed and hung to her great joy.

Hello Ian! ♡

Can I get 💬 for Yuuna and Riddle please? (I was tempted to say Ace or Deuce but I think Riddle would be more interesting!)

I know I've told you this before but I love Yuuna, and I can't wait to see more content for them!! ♡ (I love Yuusha too though!!)

Thank you! ♡

AHH HI HI thank you for the ask sheep!! 💕💕 (ask game here!)

GHSKDLFJ yeah adeuce is really obvious 😭 (but im still not against getting asks for them if anyone else is interested)

and actually!! i have something for yuuna and riddle so this is a really good excuse to actually show some of their dynamic :D

Yuuna & Riddle ━━━━━━✦

🌹: What kind of books do you like, Prefect?

🩷: I... I don't know. I don't read that often to know. Why are you asking?

The Heartslabyul Housewarden looked at the Ramshackle Prefect with disbelief and sighed.

🌹: ...That explains your slightly below average grades. I'm asking because I want to recommend you a leisurely book to read.

🩷: Oh, is that why you invited me to the library?

🌹: Of course. You're a frien– I mean – you're essentially an honorary Heartslabyul member, funnily enough. You're always at our Unbirthday parties after all. Additionally, if you get into the habit of reading, maybe those habits will rub off on Ace, Deuce, and Grim considering how close you all are together– –Ah, there it is.

A familiar book on the shelf caught Riddle's eye and went to get it for Yuuna.

🩷: Ooh, it has a cute cover. What is it about?

🌹: It's a really condensed-down version of a history of Twisted Wonderland. It's written for children. I think you'd like it, Prefect.

🩷: Th-thanks...?

Despite the implication of choosing this book for them, Yuuna still smiled sweetly at Riddle.

🩷: I appreciate the thought.

Their hands brushed against one another as Riddle handed the book over to Yuuna. Even if they both wore gloves for their school uniforms, that fleeting touch caused a slight jolting sensation throughout Riddle.

On top of that incredibly kind smile on the prefect's face, Riddle felt emotions that felt very new. Was it embarrassment? Awkwardness? Whatever it was, it felt unbecoming of him. He tried to shake it off, but the feeling persisted.

As his cheeks started to turn warm. Riddle couldn't help but wonder if he was coming down with something, but deep down, he knew that wasn't the case.

🌹: Ahem. In any case, finish reading the book as soon as possible and don't delay it any further.

     “And for the win—or, for second place, because Ian is in the lead by eleven points—if I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life, what would it be?”

     You smiled at the contestants, waiting. You were almost done filming ‘What Would (Y/n) Do?’ and Ian was smoking the other two competitors.

     Spencer and Courtney sat on either side of Ian, thinking on your most recent question. Ian was already writing something down on his whiteboard.

     So far, he had known almost everything about you. What your worst memory was, what item of clothing you’d want to wear if you weren’t scared to, what kind of cereal you most identified with. 

     You hadn’t known he remembered all of this stuff—some of it being things you’d only mentioned once or a really long time ago. You had known Ian for years. But, then again, you’d known Courtney and Spencer just as long.

     “Okay,” Courtney said, “I’m ready!”

     “Why don’t you start us off then,” you turned to her. “What food would I want to eat for the rest of my life?”

     “I said that one thing you get from Starbucks because I see you with it every morning,” they said, flipping their board. “And then I drew you at the bottom, see?”

     “Good answer,” you nodded at them. “And good artistry. Spencer?” 

     “I wrote pizza ‘cause your basic,” Spencer shrugged and everyone off-camera laughed. “And I think this game is bogus and rigged and also Ian cheated.”

     You giggled. “Guess who’s not getting any points this round? Anyway, Ian, last but certainly not least?”

     “Ok, remember back in 2017 when we went to that buffet for Keith’s birthday? You had that sandwich there that you said you’d sell your soul to eat for the first time again, so I went with that.”

     “I quit,” Spencer put the cap on his pen. “Courtney, you wanna go get some lunch?”

     They laughed, sharing a look. 

     You were too busy being shocked. You couldn’t believe he had remembered that. You hadn’t even remembered that. 

     “Wow Ian, I have to give you, like, 10 points for that because even I would’ve forgotten that but you’re so right!”

     “Courtney,” you continued. “I’m giving you 5, because I do love Starbucks. And Spencer gets none.”

     You smiled sweetly at Spencer and he flipped you off. You rolled your eyes at him.

     “And that means,” you finished. “With a total of 207 points—which might be the most we’ve ever had on here—Ian wins!”

     Everyone clapped and you began to do the outro, going on autopilot as you told the viewers to subscribe and click on the videos at the bottom of their screen.

     When the shoot was over, everyone began to disperse, all busy with different videos to film and edit.

     “Congratulations,” you told Ian. “I can’t believe you knew some of that stuff.”

     “Hey, what can I say,” he shrugged, looking almost embarrassed. “I pay attention. And you’re a very interesting person.”

     “I think we learned from all of the deatails here today that I’m not an interesting person,” you joked. 

     “Well, call me boring because I’m interested,” Ian said.

     You smiled, trying your hardest not to blush. You might have had a teeny, tiny crush on Ian ever since you had begun working at Smosh. 

     You stayed like that for a moment, before Ian said something about having to film a video and you said your farewells.

     He walked away and you turned around to find Courtney and Spencer waiting for you.

     “Um, what was that?” Courtney gestured to the set. 

     “What was what?” You asked them.

     “I think Courtney means the fact that Ian basically just wrote your biography,” Spencer added, putting his hands in his pockets. 

     “He knows you better than you know you!” Courtney exclaimed. They waggled their eyebrows, saying in a sing-song voice,  “I think he likes you.”

     “Dude’s obsessed,” Spencer piped in. 

     You shrugged. “What? No! We’ve known each other for a long time, that’s all.”

     “I’ve known you for a long time, and I wouldn’t have known that the item you wish you hadn’t gotten rid of was the necklace you wore to VidCon in 2018,” Courtney put their hands on their hips. 

      Okay, so they had a fair point. How did Ian remember all of this stuff about you? You refused to believe it was because he had feelings for you. Both Court and Spencer knew about your long-time crush on Ian, and they were probably just being nice.

     “He’s our boss, remember? He has to know his employees well,” you defended.

     “(Y/n), he didn’t know my first name was Charles until like last week,” Spencer said. “And yet he knows what you almost called the fish you won in second grade—which, by the way, Rover? That’s a dog name and I think Kevin is much better.”

     “Spencer’s right, my guy,” Courtney patted your shoulder. “Not about the fish thing—but Ian does, in fact, have a good, old-fashioned crush on you.”

     “This is ridiculous,” you said. “Just because I like him, doesn’t mean he likes me. And after one video of him knowing some facts about me, you think you have it all figured out?”

     “Oh it’s not just this video,” Courtney said. “You think Ian leaves little notes on all of our desks? Do you think he gets all of us coffee every day? Do you think he smiles that big when all of any of us enter a room?”

     You opened your mouth to speak, but stopped. You kind of had thought he did all of those things for everyone. You just thought he was a nice person—it was part of what attracted you to him—but you didn’t equate it to him thinking you were anything all that special. 

     “And you guys are sure?” Was all you said.

     Courtney smiled knowingly. “Yes. It’s honestly adorable. Trust me, from our perspective, Ian totally has it bad for you.”

     “That or he cheats at games, which we still haven’t completely ruled out,” Spencer teased. 

     Could all of this really be true? You tried to think back on all of your previous interactions with Ian. He had always been kind to you, interested in what you had to say, complimentary and supportive. In truth, you had mostly been blinded by your own attraction to Ian to every really focus on how he acted towards you. 

     “If Ian has feelings for me,” you stated, “which I’m not saying I think he does, what would I even do?”

     “Ask him out,” Courtney shrugged. “It’s about time, you’ve been in love with each other for years now.”

     Were you really going to do this? You felt your heart beating faster, your stomach already flipping at the thought of telling Ian how you feel. But, if your friends were right, then maybe he would feel the same way. 

     “Okay,” you looked at both of them. “Okay, I’ll talk to him.”

     “Yay!” Courtney cheered.

     “Go get ‘em,” Spencer added.

     You walked off the set, and as you left you heard Spencer talking to Courtney as they made their way in the opposite direction.

     “I’m just saying, I think I should have at least gotten a couple points for Kevin!”

₊˚ ✧ ‿︵‿୨୧‿︵‿ ✧ ₊˚

     Finding Ian was a lot harder than you had thought. He was busy filming all day, and you could never find a foot time to catch him in between shoots.

     Whenever you did see him, he would smile at you shyly and then suddenly need to be somewhere. You thought he was acting a bit weird, and it might have just been his busy schedule and the tiredness that accompanied it, but he almost seemed…nervous for something? 

     Finally, you gave up trying to talk to Ian and sat down against the wall to watch as they filmed the ‘Can Shayne Guess our Celebrity Crush?’ video.

     From the sound of it, Shayne was nearing the end of the video. You only partially listened as you scrolled on your phone. 

     “Well, damn,” you heard Shayne say. “Really thought I had that one. Then again, did I really except to get someone from art department right?”

     “Moving on to the next set of crushes,” he continued. “We have Bridget Mendler—good choice. Kesha—I think I know who this is already. And…”

     Shayne paused, and the whole studio became quiet. You looked up.

      “…(Y/n),” Shayne finished. You looked towards the monitor, seeing the images of the two other celebrities and yourself on the screen.

     Shayne looked at you off-camera. “This list is crazy. I’m going to take a wild guess and say this is Ian.”

     His eyes landed on a spot in the distance and you followed them, seeing Ian leaning against the wall, a ways away from you. You searched his face, but he was looking anywhere but you.

     “Is it Ian?” Shayne pointed at the screen and, sure enough, a picture of Ian’s face popped up. 

     You felt the breath leave your lungs. What had just happened? Had Ian just admitted to having a crush on you through a video? 

     Back on set, Shayne was running his hands through his hair, saying, “Well, that’ll give the fans something to think about…”

     But you could only watch Ian, making your way to where he was standing. You were aware of everybody’s eyes on you.

     “Really?” Was all you said once you reached him, your voice coming out as a whisper.

     Ian smiled at you. “Hey, you’re on famous birthdays, I think that counts as a celebrity.”

     That was all the encouragement you needed. Just like that, you kissed him. And he kissed you back, wrapping his arms around you. 

    “Yeah baby!” You heard someone shoot, and you pulled away to see Courtney beaming at you.

     “I promise I didn’t know that was going to happen,” Spencer grinned, holding his hands up from his spot by the computer. “I don’t actually go through these things before we shoot.”

     You giggled, turning back to Ian. 

     “Did you really not know?” He asked you. “I always thought I was kind of obvious.”

     “To everyone but me, I think,” you told him, chuckling. “I was to busy having feelings for you.”

     “And look at us now,” Ian joked, putting his arm around your shoulder. You couldn’t stop smiling. 

     “I just wish I’d had the guts to put you as one of my celebrity crushes,” you told him. 

     “Who would I have beat out?” He asked you. “Austin Butler?”

     “Let’s not get hasty,” you teased. 

     But suddenly you had an idea. You walked over to where Spencer sat. “Hey, Spence? Have you guys done my list yet?”

     “Not yet,” he whispered so Shayne wouldn’t hear him. 

     You turned back to look at Ian, who was watching you like he had finally found you and didn’t want to lose you. 

    “Can you still edit those things? Because I have a last minute adjustment,” you told him, smiling as you showed him a picture of Ian. 

     “Let’s give the fans even more to think about.”

Frodo herself is a ghostwise halfling rogue thief, just like Uncle Bilbo! Noble background.

Samwise Gamgee is a healing halfling paladin with an oath of devotion... to Frodo. He has the farmer background.

Meriadoc Brandybuck is a Strongheart halfling fighter, battle master as he turns out to be in the books. Also noble background.

Peregrin Took is a Lightfoot halfling bard, college of swords. My Pip is a bit different from source but Billy Boyd sang so beautifully in RotK it inspired me to pick bard. She's also noble.

Gandalf Gale. Human polymaath which is a mod class designed for centuries old vampires by the maker of Vampire Origin. I think it fits nicely for a maiar in disguise as a human wizard. I selected a range of spells that Gandalf uses, like firebolt, where I can. I gave him the guide background and gave him the canon beard and long hair, and Ian McKellen's twinkly blue eyes.

Aragorn Wyll. Human ranger hunter. I might multi class to paladin and/or fighter. Wyll is sort of Baldurian exiled royalty, and has an innate sense of goodness and justice that I feel Aragorn shares. I kept Wyll's darker skin and brown eye, just settling for changing his hair. When Mizora did her business, I just used debug to change him back.

Gimli Karlach. I made her smol. She's a halfling tiefling rather than a dwarf proper. She's still taller than the halflings so that fits nicely. And she's still a barbarian but I chose berserker rather than wild - I usually pick berserker anyway for Karlach tbh. They both love axes so weapons were an easy choice.

My Frodo (not-so) Challenge! I downloaded a load of halfling and LotR mods for classes and equipment before I started this run. If you see anything you want, ask and I'll see if I can remember which!

Legolas Astarion. The obvious choice. Blond hair and blue eyes and woosh we have Legolas. I decided on dual wielder class, but will probably multi class later too. I debated wood elf over high elf... But kept high elf in the end, improper as that is! Meh, I can change it later if I change my mind.

Boromir Lae'zel. I had Shadowheart originally but it was bugging me... Lae is a much better fit. Oath of Conquest paladin, will multi class to fighter later. Staunch belief in the rightness of their own society and structure, fanatical belief in their goddess/father's rule only for this to be stripped away and reversed on proof of the real, exiled, ruler being presented to them. Instead of dying at the end of Act 1, Lae will take on attributes of Faramir.

And finally, Smeagol Shadowheart. I made her a Kender way of shadow monk. She will specialise in unarmed combat but the shadow side was too good a fit for Smeagol/Gollum/Slinker/Stinker. I changed her eyes to blue and gave her corpse-pale skin. I'm still playing around with clothes... It does not seem quite right to have a bald mini-Shads toddling around in a loincloth. They both have a 'precious' that is more than it seems, and holds a dark secret. They both have memory issues. Shar is scarily similar to Sauron too, and Smeagol Shadowheart will have to choose between dark and light at the end of Act 2.

The no party limit mod actually does have a limit of 16. And we have Halsin, Jaheira and Minsc to pick up yet. Halsin reminds me of Beorn so that would be a throwback to the Hobbit I guess.

Jaheira is... Galadriel?

Minsc... Ahh I'm not sure. I can make Arwen, Eowyn and Eomer as Companions. Maybe Minsc can be King Theoden?! Wait. Would Boo be Wormtongue in that case?!

Hi! I loved your fic about Ian and Mickey's car accident, and the psychological and emotional impact it had on Mickey. I reread it a while back, and a couple days ago I started thinking about what it'd look like for there to be another accident (car or otherwise, even just getting whooped by a sickness) but it's Mickey who's hurt real bad, and how that'd look for the impact on Ian and also how Mickey handles actually having someone (more than one someones) who cares about him.

I don't know if you take requests, so if not, just take this as a little thought i wanted to share!!

ahh thank you so much ! i'm so glad you enjoyed my little story 💙

i'm right there with you, i love a good hurt!mickey fic where ian has to take care of him in some capacity and mickey has to deal with letting him do shit for him. you mentioned a sick!mickey fic and i have one of those written already that i'll link here !

as for other whump-type fics with hurt!mickey, i have a couple that i'll link here, here, and here, but i don't think i have one (yet) that has mickey quite as hurt as ian was in we've got time. though i would like to see, like you said, the impact of that on ian, so maybe i'll write something with that soon 🤔🤔

anyways, thanks for the ask 💙💙

The Sims is love. List 5 facts about a favorite sim couple of yours, and why you love them so much. Then pass this on to 5 others, whose sim couple(s) you also love. 💘💕 :D

Ahh! Thank you for the ask. This gives me a chance to really introduce Ian and Clover's dynamic. TW for a small mention of child abuse.

Ian is absolutely a golden retriever boyfriend and wouldn't hesitate to die for Clover. Thankfully, he hasn't had to yet, but he did get a tattoo of a clover on his hand for her -- which to him might as well be dying as he was terrified of seeing any blood while he was getting it done. 😂

Around the time of Clover's graduation, her and Ian had a bit of a falling out before she re-invited him, but neither of them were able to make it because before the ceremony, Clover's mom hurt her badly enough to put her in the hospital. Ian stayed with her and advocated for her until she woke up days (weeks? I can't remember, Julie and I talked about it so long ago 😂) later.

After Clover woke up at the hospital, it became obvious she suffered from amnesia. Which is a whole thing I'm not gonna get into now, but. The first real thing she remembered about Ian was when he tripped over his own feet, then spun around, did a dab and said "parkour". 😂 When she told him she remembered it, he told her to forget it again.

Clover has a son from her relationship with Sebastian. Ian pretty much loves him like his own and didn't hesitate to agree to meet him when Clover felt comfortable enough to introduce them to each other.

Their relationship begun because they both dated Christian (Heath and Ariel's son) and he dumped them both for different reasons. Ian and Clover 100% had better chemistry together than with Christian anyways. 😂

Hi! I was wondering if you still do bowers gang ships and if I could get a ship :)

I am an Asian girl about 5 feet I have black hair medium length hair and brown eyes. I wear douyin makeup. My style is either soft style or big shirts, flannel and jeans. I love making people laugh and am funny, and use sarcasm. I like listening to music and have mommy issues

no hate all y'all short as fuck i feel like a giant😭

I pair you with...

⭐Henry Bowers⭐

⭐Okay so I knew I had to pick Henry the second I saw flannel and jeans im sorry-

⭐He’d constantly give you his clothes, despite you being a literal foot shorter than him

⭐Parades you around school with his baggy ass flannels which end at the end of your thighs

⭐Likes your makeup alot, thinks you look so cute

⭐Dont even think about asking to put it on his face

⭐He doesnt care he will DECK you (or so he says)

⭐He will eventually let you do his make up

⭐But only if you'll sit on his lap while you do it (nasty ahh mf)

⭐Make sure you dont snap a picture he will hunt you down

⭐Sarcasm you say? this man will win that fight every time, dont even TRY

⭐Will play with your hair all. the. time. not even joking he just wants to feel how soft it is 24/7

⭐Most likely listens to the same music as you, I imagine him as one of those people that listens to everything (yes even country, Ian Noe is his shit)

⭐Would even listen to your music if he didnt like it, as long as he could spend quality time with you he doesnt care

⭐Mommy issues? something for you 2 fellas to bond over ya welcome

My bad for being dead y'all lmao the comeback boutta be crazy (it wont im probably gonna be gone by tmrw)
