Sometimes it hits me all over again that my husband is the best husband anybody could ask for and that he's amazing and I love him more than anything, and I tell him all of that. And he's super appreciative but a bit confused and goes "I'm not even doing anything!"
But, like, he does everything, you know? 🥹
#jfc i am so in love!!#i can't believe this man#i never would have thought i'd have a partner who treats me the way he does#i am so incredibly happy that he married me!!! 🥰🥰🥰#personal#i'm so sorry it had to be said#sometimes i just want to shout it from the rooftops#love#marriage

howdyyy, what do u think of plat yan! dick grayson (or platonic yan father bruce wayne up to u) with a batsis who is very disinterested with him primarily bc when she was younger she idolised him a lot but now not so much. there are comics where grayson has cheated on his partners before so imagine batsis coming to realise as she aged and matured that her doting brother is a bit of a playboy…. a lot like a playboy actually—
You know, this is actually extremely realistic. There's nothing like the rose color glasses falling off and realizing just how messed up your family truly is.

I'd like to think that there was plenty of jokes and mentions about Dick being a playboy but Batsis would just be absolutely clueless. You probably just thought it was a reference to his charming appearance or the way he gets hit on at least once whenever he goes out. Not really that he was an notorious heart breaker.
Like i don't think the other batkids had serious talks about it in front of you because of your (then) age or maybe it was a request by Dick so he could keep on his perfect mask with you?
Ironically, he wouldn't want any man to treat his little sister (or any of them) the way he does to other women but he has a problem. I will say though, it makes absolute sense that Dick or even the others would have issues keeping relationships or even have sex addictions. I mean it's a real issue that many people are struggling with right now. But can you imagine your father constantly bringing home women and cheating your entire childhood? Like Bruce introduces some of these women to them, they get attached to this potential mother then it's ripped away to be discarded for the new catch. I think that definitely warped Dick's view of women and romance stems from that. *intense mommy issues* But also i mentioned before that it's hard for him to maintain relationships while taking on the fatherly role in the family. His obsession with making sure all of his siblings are cared for and protected(mixed with being nightwing), makes it all the more difficult. Maybe that leads him to just hooking up with and being sloppy in his relationships. Maybe its just a means of stress relief and that causes him to almost dehumanize/objectify the women he "romances".
I'm not saying this is justifiable, cheating is disgusting and his behaviors are something that needs to be corrected regardless of mommy issues but for headcanon sake we are entertaining the concept
I'm not sure how you'd exactly find out about it. Maybe one of the kids let it slip and didn't bother to do damage control because you're old enough now? Maybe you spoke to one of his exes that is still friendly with the batfam? Or maybe your brain started to develop and you realized he wasn't hanging out with that new super model as just friends all night...it was something more and his girlfriend definitely didn't know about it.
Regardless, I think when you finally found out about everything, your world crushed. I don't think you'd hate him but you just feel yucky about the whole thing. Now when you look at him something in your stomach just sinks. You might even wonder if you can trust him. I mean if he's got that much of a problem to be dishonest with his lovers, then why would it be so left field to suggest he lied to you too when he said he loves you or that you were his favorite? The transition from you idolizing him to being standoff-ish would be extremely noticeable to him. I mean it's hard to ignore when you were his mini me. Even as you got older you followed him around and never skipped an opportunity to be near.
He wouldn't think that it was because of the playboy thing, maybe just you needing some space as a teen. Everyone has gone through that phase before but when he notices your shift is only directed towards him, he's a little upset about it. He doesn't understand what he did wrong? One day you guys are eating ice cream together while having a sleepover in his room to you treating him like a disease.
Eventually your big brother corners you and makes you to confess whats bothering you. He apologizes if something he said rubbed you the wrong way but you couldn't keep treating him this way.
"uhm..i dunno, dick? I found out how you've been treating you partners and i think it's kinda gross. I guess i just don't really wanna be around someone who treats women like that right now..."
I think Dick's reaction would be complete shock....who tf told you?! He has no defense but he tries to muster up one before realizing this is just making him look worse when EVERYBODY knows how much of a whore he is lol. He'd back off of you and maybe even mutter an apology before walking away to go collect himself.
He's furious as well...whoever told you will be getting an earful because they just ruined something precious to him. (yeah they did. totally not his OWN actions) If it was one of his brothers, he will be throwing hands.
Dick does very much care about others perception of him, i've said this before. He knew he had a problem and his other siblings have spoken to him about it and it affected him but never enough to change. It's just a far deeper issue than wanting a quick fuck in the expense of his partners...But seeing his baby sister look at him with just so much disgust and disappointment was enough to cause him to spiral. He's not proud of his actions and knows he's hurt and discarded of many, many women for his own satisfaction. It's deplorable. I can imagine him taking maybe a few days to himself, he's just in his head while being overtaken by heavy guilt.
I'm not sure if Dick would actually change for you though? I think he is even debating it. Yeah he's a yandere for his batsis but is his obsession with you enough to kick the other one to the curb? That's up to you. A hopeful person would say, yes he would. Anything for his babybat! He's going to do whatever it takes to prove himself again, anything to make you proud. This habit isn't worth it if hes loosing you.
My opinion? No, he won't change after his guilt wears off. He'll just pretend like he's reborn. Dick would try for like a week and then go right back to doing his habits. He's a manipulative piece of work and yeah, lying to you is bad but he wants his cake and to eat it too. He's not willing to give up anything that gives him a euphoric boost. Shh...what you don't know, won't kill you.

One Sided Love Triangles: Tokyo Debunker
Link to Twisted Wonderland Post
Because I hate when people have to lose. Though I'd be way more comfortable writing a normal love triangle for tdb than twst... there's a few of these bitches who could stand to be knocked down a peg or two.
Haru vs Peekaboo- betrayal never comes from your enemies does it. Haru wants to be happy you get along with his baby, and he's really grateful for your continued help in the anomalous animal sanctuary, really. He even originally found your interactions with Peekabo really cute! He's got a bunch of videos saved on his phone and everything but he can't help but feel just a wee bit bitter. He really wants to be the one with his head in your lap getting scritches and being told how cute he is. Something he'd never say to your face but whines about at the bar enough for Romeo to record and send to you. "For free?" Yeah for free he's had enough of this shit please come get your man MC.
Kaito vs Luca- this one is cannon to a degree I think... Kaito is deeply insecure about how much more confident Luca is around MC compared to him and how the girls on campus seem to like him more. The fact that he's so painfully oblivious doesn't help, meanwhile Luca is just overjoyed that his two best friends are in such a good relationship. You're genuinely perfect for each other, why all these secrecy and making him promise not to tell the other about the nice things you say? Isn't it natural to gush about your partner???
Towa vs Ren- Towa is such a pouty baby who doesn't fully understand his feelings and Ren is just happy to have a friend who understands the concept of a log in bonus. Neither of you fully realize that Towa is attempting to flirt, or would it be closer to say woo? All you know is one minute the two of you are casually chilling and talking about horror movies or something and then *BAM* Towa's thrown some flowers at Ren and pulled you into his lap. He's happy you wiggle to get comfy with him but very upset that you keep up your conversation with Ren. Stop being a good senpai and pay attention to hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiim.
Tohma vs Leo- just hear me out. I don't think Tohma really gets jealous? He seems super secure in himself and his abilities so he doesn't have much of a reason to get whiny and silly over MC, that's your role in the relationship. And he knows, logically that this little video Leo uploaded is bait to test the security on campus but it doesn't stop him from damn near cracking his phone in half when he sees it. That's how Leo wants to play this little game? Well fine, Tohma hopes he's ready to be thoroughly humiliated. No one can flirt with another man's partner quite as well as a bitch with a monocle. Leo is totally unaware any of this for the most part, he just assumes the extra irritation he's picking up on from Tohma is because he keeps spying on him and Alan. The fact he keeps teasing MC doesn't even cross his mind, he's just doing that to irritate you.
... as a side note can you imagine how confused everyone would get if Leo and MC kept picking fights about their upcoming "divorce" when no one even thought they were ever technically together. Except for Ritsu who sits you down to seriously try to talk you in to let him being your divorce attorney and still doesn't fully get that it's a joke by the time you're done. Actually while I'm at it:
Leo vs Ritsu- where that's exactly your dynamic but Leo starts catching some genuine feelings when he tries to crack a joke about you cheating on him with your divorce attorney only to realize that makes him unironically angry. How dare you, after everything you've been through. Wasn't he he enough? You know he can't treat you like he can. And you're just like "what can't treat me wrong?" And then you have a very toxic make out session Sho has to hear both of you scream about later while he seriously considers taking up a drinking problem.
Taiga vs Haru- this game has one character named Haru (ginger, baby) and one named Haku (green, evil?) Which confuses me an unreasonable amount. I already mentioned I wanted a serious Taiga vs Haku love triangle... but Taiga vs Haru would just be silly. You have MC who loves anomalous animals and hanging out in Jabberwock and Taiga who hates emotional intimacy and his feelings for MC just as much as he hates the idea of you being with anyone else. And of all people why Harry? He thought they were friends... or cool at least even if he won't let him eat that chinchilla thing. And now he's got MC playing defense for it too, it's irritating. He already has to fight himself to remember who you are every time he sees you again and go through the annoyance of recognizing he's a bit in love and now he can't even break into the animal sanctuary without tripping over himself and paying attention to you instead. It's annoying and it's all Haru's fault for having everything he wants. (If you ask he'll say that complaint is about Peekaboo but Haru and Romeo know it's not.) Haru is just trying to get some help from a trusted friend he's so stressed out ;-;
Sho vs Jin- Sho and his excuses... he doesn't want to just invite you to hang out and he doesn't want to ask you to come help him with the food truck because you've got so much else to do. You deserve a chance to rest, and he wants to be who you come to do that with. But Jin... he'd make that so much easier if it was him wouldn't he? He's rich and connected, and you're so sweet he's sure you could thaw that frozen heart enough for him to see you as human and not a gopher. Sho knows you, the moment he started paying attention to you he saw you as a person. But he still hurt you... and Jin didn't really do that did he? Jin doesn't like Sho because he's in Vagastrom and he doesn't trust him with your safety. Sho might see a rival and a better option, but what he's really dealing with is MC's disapproving dad who can't stand that their boyfriend has a leather jacket and a motorbike. He bets he's got tattoos and an arrest record too doesn't he MC, Jin is judging you so hard.

Hi Caterkinnie! Your work is really amazing, thank you so much for all your work in the fandom! I think anyone who sees your headcanons days are brightened! May I request Rook, Jamil, Ruggie and Azul or Vil (up to you) with a friend they have been deeply in love with for a long time, who's just broken up from a long-term bad relationship. I'd find it really interesting to see the angst the boys struggled with while their friend was in such a bad relationship--a relationship that would somehow never end no matter how awful or neglectful their partner was (up to your imagination how their partner was)--and how they handled not letting their deepening love/crush show (if that's how they'd handle it. I honestly have no idea as to how Rook especially would handle this situation). And of course, now that there's been an unprecedented breakup, what now? I hope that wasn't too specific. I just thought it'd be interesting because I just broke up from a long-term relationship @__@ (5 years for me... In my case, I was dating a selfish man child. According to my friends, it was heartbreaking to watch because no matter what they said/did or what he said/did it would never end, so they just had to watch the rollercoaster play out while white knuckled). I haven't seen headcanons on this type of situation yet and how the boys would respond, so I'd love to see your headcanons. Not to mention, your writing is so top knotch, and I feel like you really get the complexity of so many of these characters, that I was pumped to ask when I saw your requests are open. If it's too specific or you're not feeling it, I get it! I hope you keep rocking on with this blog and whatever else you're up to! Thank you for the hardwork!
Supporting you through a bad break up...
❥ ⌗ characters: Rook hunt, Jamil Viper, Ruggie Bucchi, Azul Ashengrotto.
❥ ⌗ Summary: After a long long time with the person who you thought was the love of your life, ended the relationship suddenly with the pretext he was no longer in love. You decided to confide your feelings with your closest friend; a friend who happened to be deeply in love with you.
❥ ⌗ tags: tw for toxic relationship, though details aren't given, there are mentions of arguments and toxic behaviour. didn't proofread enough. sorry if ooc.
❥ ⌗ a/n: sorry anon!!!!!!! I've had this drafted since you requested this... and only now i finished it!!! i couldn't bring myself to delete it as I loved the idea so much. Hope if you see this that you're doing so much better now!!!!
Rook made it very clear from the beginning he had feelings for you, but would not attempt to show them.
He also could see the signs of what seemed to be an unhappy relationship that sooner or later was going to come to an end; signs you probably didn't notice.
He's a very caring man, ever since the moment he met you he always tried to help you in any way, and this was no exception; but he also knew, as much as it hurt him, you needed time to realize that the person you loved didn't treat you in the way you deserved to be treated. It hurt him so deeply to see the way he talked to you, but Rook wasn't a hero who would yell at your boyfriend to stop. He had to be subtle — trying to calm the waters when he was around, defending you in his own way. His heart ached, sometimes with jealousy, sometimes with rage — sometimes both, but he refused to let you know about any of these emotions. He was there for you, whether you needed help or advice.
He helped you because he loved you, he constantly told you how important you were to him and there was nothing he wished more than to take you away and treat you like a queen. But alas, his love was not only unrequited, you were in love with someone else.
Oh, how glad he'd be if only one day you woke up and chose him! The selfish part of him wanted to rush, but he knew he had to be patient... Someday it'd happen, or at the very least... you'd be with someone else who makes you happy, and that's something he would like as well.
But when you come to him to tell him everything that happened...
He's going to comfort you and walk you through the feelings the breakup left… In those cases, he's not as mischievous as he typically is. His voice is soft and soothing, as he tries to get your mind off things, as well as being of support when you need it the most…
He can't bring himself to court you while doing so, although deep down, he wishes someday you'll see his efforts, even if he's not exactly expecting you to fall for him…
However, your now ex-boyfriend will avoid you like the plague, and runs away when Rook is nearby, and you wonder if he had something to do with that….
Jamil warned you about your partner a few times, he didn't want to get TOO involved to avoid making you upset, but every time the subject was brought up…. he felt a deep heaviness in his heart that he hated.
The least thing he wanted was for you to notice his feelings. But maybe he was too insistent on the idea that it was best if you broke up…
But those were genuinely good feelings. He saw how bad you were being treated and constantly found himself thinking… “I could do better, so much better…” Yet he hated himself for it. What could he do, if you never saw anything in him?
He feels all of these things, yet it's like… he only wants you to Not Be with your boyfriend. Jamil believes you'd never love him back as well.
If you came to him for advice, he'd give it to you— but his voice was always restrained… and soon enough, he just tried his best to act as if his feelings weren't there, as if he was just a friend who gave advice and was exhausted by you not following it.
But then… it finally happened, but as happy as he felt, seeing how much it affected you.. it didn't feel like victory (even if it was!)
He wouldn't constantly seek you out. But if you need to vent he's always there. He's not good with comforting words… but his honesty can be soothing and grounding. As well as he might sometimes just try to aid you in general, after all… acts of service (unfortunately) are second nature for him.
Whether it's for food… studying… anything. You don't even have to ask… But he's not expecting you to like him back. And not in a cute “he'll wait for you!” kind of way… he thinks you'd never reciprocate his feelings. And he's not sad about that! Jamil just accepted that as a reality. Whether that changes or not is up to you…
Ruggie's pretty straightforward… Not with his feelings, but with his opinion on your boyfriend.
He takes every chance he gets to say something about him and as much as he tries to play it off as a joke, his voice is bitter… He hates him so much!
Ruggie wants to believe he only hates him because you're someone he could dare to call a friend! He denies any other underlying reason for his distaste for your boyfriend that isn't that he's unfair with you... But obviously, he's a bit prideful, a tiiny bit. He couldn't help but try to impress you every time he could. He wished that you'd see how you deserved to be treated… And maaaaybe how much better he is. And he tries for so long, it's kind of obvious if you know him well. If you're observant enough you might have caught on to his feelings.
However, that all changed when you went to him looking for the comfort of a friend, after your relationship ended…
Like Jamil, Ruggie wanted to feel happy, he wanted to celebrate! Finally you weren't tied to that man-child! You could finally focus on yourself and maaaybe on him….. But when he saw how heartbroken you looked, he couldn't bring himself to act on those emotions. You were hurt, and he hated seeing you like that. Though he's pretty awkward at it… He'll try his best to comfort you, but his words feel stiff and you can tell this is not his area of expertise…
He does so much better when it comes to acts of service. He'll try his best to distract you, make you laugh… which is something he'd love to hear again. He won't dare to mention his feelings however. It'd take a long time before he even considers that he could have a chance.
Unlike everyone before, Azul'd rather stay quiet.
He already hated the idea of having feelings for you, and just wanted to forget you existed to make the tightness in his heart disappear. He wasn't one to believe in love, let alone the fact that you were already committed to a relationship…
Yet because of that same reason he wasn't able to leave.
He had a special way of aiding you out of uncomfortable situations and stupid arguments, almost appearing randomly and requesting attention from one of you. The way he dissipated the tense air by just intruding (literally) was almost comical.
Azul's not sure of what to do, as he always regrets helping you, he says you're hopeless and it's up to you to change the situation… as if he doesn't care at all unless you're going to make a deal with him, but then he ALWAYS comes back, lends a listening ear, maybe greets you with some tea and a few snacks… Oh he pays for them, don't worry. It's a gift.
Then he goes back to feeling guilty for helping you, and frustrated for liking you.
….He's a complex guy.
One of those times, you came to talk to him at his office (which the twins knew you had special priority over his other tasks. Even if he never asked.) and told him what happened, you had an argument and it escalated, leading to the breakup… In which he seemed calm as always listening to you… asking you to sit on the couch as he paid attention to your woes.
He was at a loss for words.
Yes, he did believe this was for the best… but this ACTUALLY happening made him realize he never planned what to do beforehand. He repeated the typical routine, something sweet to drink… something soothing to eat… He's a good listener, and he will easily ignore his crush on you to help you better.
His feelings were always second place for him, and Azul seems like the kind of guy who low-key wishes you don't love him back, as he wouldn't know what to do if you did... (even as flattered as he'd feel, he still struggles with trusting people.)
However… if you're too uncomfortable with tour ex… He might ask the twins to aid you if you wish to not see him again! For free of course. You shoule accept his kindness… as he typically doesn't offer such services for free.
Reblogs are appreciated!!!

re this post bc it's too long for me to fit in a normal tumblr reply:
I'd love to! (Most, but not all) western depictions of dragons envision them as monsters -- either good or evil. Many legends paint them as greedy and jealous. They live underneath mountains and hoard gold. They take princesses and lock them in a tower. A hero eventually comes to slay the beast. This is, of course, an overgeneralization because there are also a few tales in which they are wise and lend advice, and there are a few rare exceptions in modern tales where dragons are as intelligent as humans - or more intelligent than humans, but they are also just as often depicted as like...basically a really intelligent animal. They're a type of monster. Chiefly: they're aggressive, jealous, and possessive.
The western mind views lions as symbols of power and strength - "the king of beasts". We actually can see the direct dichotomy in the western mind between dragons and lions in Yvain, the Knight of the Lion, where the hero rescues a lion from a great serpent. The lion becomes his loyal companion, and is associated with knightly virtue. They're associated with kings and royalty (Richard the Lionheart, Robert III - the Lion of Saxony), and the word "lionize" means to give someone approval and treat them with great importance. In The Twelve Huntsmen, a lion appears as advisor to the king. In Aarne-Thompson-Uther's index, we see over and over again lions as a hero's helper or a protagonist in its own right.
So, by contrast, the Chinese dragon is one of the auspicious beasts. Historically, they were a symbol of the emperor. They represent prosperity, wisdom, and power, associated with rivers, the sky, and rain, and are benevolent, kind beasts who foster harmony. In fact, the disparity is so immense that in 2008, the Chinese government decided against using a dragon as the Olympic team's mascot because of how dragons are viewed in the west and opted for a more 'friendly' symbol instead.
This is why so many fanon depictions of Zhongli drive me crazy. He gets slapped with so many western dragon traits (jealous, possessive of his partner because oh that's just how dragons are, a general lack of emotional intelligence -- and the idea that he was a bloodthirsty maniac during the archon war before Guizhong 'tamed' him, loves to live beneath a mountain or deep underground). Granted, not all fics are like this, but most fics use at least one of these ideas even though they're in direct conflict with what the game presents to us. Rex Lapis, during and before the archon war, was a kind and benevolent ruler who -- when his people had no houses -- crafted houses for them out of pure gold. He "wished not for dominion", but couldn't stand by and watch people suffer. He doesn't like to fight, but he's good at it and he's strong, so he feels an inherent sense of duty to protect his people.
His character stories are quite clear that though he has never been poor himself, he understands what it means to be poor. He's empathetic, thoughtful, and generous to a fault. That's in his character short where, after hearing that the item was a family heirloom pawned out of necessity, he buys back that jewelry from the pawn shop vendor and quietly returns it to its owner with some living expenses on the side. Prior to faking his death, he personally ran Liyue alongside the Qixing, to the point that both Keqing and Ganyu have expressed how much more intense their workload has become now that he's not doing everything. He's warm, wise, kind, and treats his friends with great respect. So yeah it came as a shock to me and still really bothers me how poorly he is portrayed in a lot of fics -- as this emotionally unintelligent, oblivious, bad-at-feelings hunk. Especially when he's not even actually a dragon. He just chose to look part dragon, part qilin, in an effort to communicate his nature to his people with symbols they would understand.
Anyway I could talk about him for way too long, thank you for coming to my tedtalk. I just think that if English-speaking writers took a second to consider their own bias and look up some information about Chinese dragons, they'd write him very differently.
#zhongli#hi you activated my trap card#<3#thank you!#if i sound salty it's because i am#i love zhongli so much and it's so hard to find good fics for him

(This is my first time writing NSFW, and a over 2k words, so I'm excited to see if you guys like this)

"Hungry Love. Let us Feast"
[Laios Touden x gn!reader]
Warnings: NSFW content below - long fic? - mentions of reader having AFAB genitalia - mentions of cannibalism (nothing gory don't worry)

Laios liked monsters. And he liked eating them. He had an... odd fascination with them, but who were you to judge, when you liked the idea of cannibalism as an analogy for love? Exactly, you were in no position to judge your partner.
You hadn't told him that, though. That you liked the idea of "consuming each other", or that you wanted him to bite each other as you were in bed, treating each other like a fine dish.
—Is everything okay, love?— Laios placed a gentle hand over (y/n)'s shoulder, stirring them away from their thoughts.
They nodded, smiling up at him softly.— Yeah, just thinking— he sat by their side, crossing his legs. He had taken off his armor, wearing the clothes from underneath. They couldn't help their eyes traveling down towards the v-neck of their shirt, the strings loose for comfort.
—Thinking of what?— he asked curiously.
—Just...— should they tell him? No...— about us— they kept their soft smile as they talked for a while about different topics, relating one with another, love, food, monsters. Ugh, monsters. Don't eat them, eat me (y/n) thought to themselves, unable to hide the expression of slight annoyance on their face as the topic was brought up.
He noticed this and mid-rant stopped— Are you alright? Are you tired? We've been walking a lot today, maybe you should rest— if there was something he liked more than talking about monsters in this world, that would be you. He cared about (y/n) more than anyone could imagine or describe.
—Ah, yes... well— they hesitated, looking at their hands, then at his face, and then back at their hands as they fidgeted with their fingers in an attempt to calm their nerves.
They wanted to say how much they wanted to be... consumed, devoured. But would it be weird? Maybe for Laios not too much?
—I've. .. wanted to tell you something for a long time— they mumble— I– It's nothing bad... I think— they waved their hands as they tried to not scare him with their seriousness. Laios looked at (y/n), silently waiting for them to speak.— Have you ever heard of cannibalism as a metaphor or analogy for... love? Or sex even?— they closed their eyes as they said that, bracing for something bad that never came.
Laios put a finger to his chin in thought— Well if I'm being honest, I think I heard of it once or twice, when I was younger and studying literature, but I never delved in much deeper than the fact that it's a thing— he answered with their usual tone.— Why do you ask?— Laios looked at them for an explanation, curiosity clearly sparked in his honey eyes.
(y/n) gulped, trying to ignore how their cheeks started to burn with an incoming blush. Were they really gonna talk about this? They had already told Laios and piqued his curiosity, and he probably would try to pick up the subject sooner than later if they decided to just leave it at this. So gathering courage, they spoke.— I would like for us to– uh– how do I put it?— (y/n) searched for the right words to voice their ideas— to treat each other like a meal when we have intimacy— they blurted, trying to finish the sentence as soon as possible.
—Treat each other... like a meal...— he echoed, raising an eyebrow— so you mean you want me to eat you?— he concluded.
—Ah– well, yes and no, I mean it not in the literal sense, but in a figurative one obviously— they explained— you see, I'd love it if you spoke to me more...no– I...— they sighed again. Gods above was this difficult.— I want you to describe or treat me like a meal. I want us to enjoy ourselves as if we were... "feasting on each other"—.
Soon enough their explanations worked their way into Laios's brain, and he understood exactly what (y/n) was asking for. He smiled, already coming up in his brain with a few ideas. He'd have to think more about the subject though, after all, he always wanted the best for you.
That night, when everyone had gone to sleep in the rooms of the abandoned house they had chosen to pass the night in, Laios approached (y/n) from behind as they were getting into bed.
—Sleepy?— he whispered in their ear, their strong arms hugging them by the waist. They froze at the sudden interaction and slowly relaxed.
—Not really, but we need the rest, don't we?— they smiled, trying to turn around to hug them back, but Laios didn't budge in their hold. —Uh, dear?— they mumbled, this time trying to look behind them.
That's when they felt his lips softly spread kisses on their shoulders, going to the back of their neck and ending their path under their ear. His breath was warm as he spoke— I'm hungry...— he mumbled against their skin. His voice didn't sound like it usually did. This time it sounded... dominant almost.
(y/n)'s breath hitched at this, suddenly feeling themselves grow hot in the cold of the night.
—Should I see if Senshi has any leftovers?— they asked despite their nerves.
—What for? I've got a whole meal right in my hands already...— he let his hands wander, one going down to grip and squeeze at their thigh. The other one traced its way over their neck and up to touch their lower lip.— It would be a waste if I didn't eat you, don't you think? ...so much to delight myself with—.
He let go of them and guided (y/n) to lie down on the bed. They obliged, excitement and pleasure already cursing through their veins as Laios crawled and watched from on top of them how they looked at him with a shy expression, their hair all messy over the soft pillow, a few strands on their face.— Oh how beautiful you are...— Laios whispers, licking his lips and moving the strands of hair away from their pretty face. His lips softly collided with (y/n)'s, who returned the kiss as they tangled their fingers at the back of his honey haired head.
Licking at their bottom lip, silently asking for permission, (y/n) parts their lips, allowing their tongues to dance lovingly. One of his hands stays by the side of their head to keep himself up, while the other moves the spread their legs a bit further, allowing him to come closer, his chest now pressing against theirs.
A string of saliva connects their lips when they break the kiss, and they're both left already panting, thinking about what's next. Laios stutters for a moment as his fingertips touch slightly under (y/n)'s shirt— May I?— he looks up at them through lidded, yet soft eyes.— I'm dying to discover what my meal is for tonight— he let's his hand further under their shirt once (y/n) gives them the okay to go ahead.
His big and somewhat calloused hands cup one of their breasts, massaging it for a moment, his index finger reaching for their nipple and flicking lightly at it. —Mhh... you're so perfectly soft, my love— he uttered, peppering kisses all over their collarbone.
(y/n) sighed, a hand coming up to their lips to contain the moan that wanted to escape from their lips, caused by all the attention they were suddenly receiving.
—Don't...— Laios said firmly, looking up at them from their collarbone.— I want to feast your flesh, and I want to listen to the way you feel when I'm devouring you. So don't— his hand traveled slowly down from their chest to the hem of their pants, feeling the goosebumps on their skin.
Laios felt his erection twitch in the captivity of his own pants, but he bit his lip, focusing once again on the task at hand. Eating.
He slid their pants off easily, underwear gone along with them, taking the opportunity to get rid of his own shirt as well. His breath already agitated, he gulped down the sudden urge to just dive in between their legs and taste them without a word. He continued to gently massage one of their breasts and kissing their neck. Lips starting to trail downwards, he pinched softly at one of their nipples, kissing his way down towards the other breast and sticking his tongue out to play with the nipple of the other.
When their legs twitched, threatening to close in the slightest around him, he moved his hand to hold their thighs open with a strong grip. It wasn't enough to hurt, no. But it was strong enough to let them know, without a word, that it was not happening under his watch.— Can't have a feast without the main course, can we?— he chuckled, trailing kisses down their body and finally positioning his face in between their legs. (y/n) looked away, but quickly looked right back down at him, embarrassment and excitement mixing in their stomach.
He slid a finger over the slick of the entrance, watching mesmerized at their juices as he heard a soft gasp of surprise come from their lips.
Kissing both of their thighs for a few moments first, he looked up to them and whispered— Thank you for the meal, my love— and closing his eyes, his tongue stuck out to lick in an upward motion, testing the waters. Once he heard another gasp, accompanied of a soft whimper, he pressed his face right into their cunt, tongue lapping at the juices as his nose pressed against the soft bundle of nerves slightly above.— Gods, I've been starving— he mumbled against their clit, his warm breath making them shiver.
Sticking his tongue inside of them, then swirling it around their clit, their flavor stuck to Laios's tongue and lips, smearing itself around part of his cheeks and nose as he hummed eagerly against their pussy.
It went on for a while, a long while. And he seemed thrilled at their reactions. What if he licked like this? What if he bit their thighs? What if he raised their legs and pressed his face as much as he could into the sweet liquor of their pussy? What if he held your hips in place with enough strength to make you unable to stop yourself from being completely devoured by him?
He shifted his gaze up towards their face— Gods you sound divine. You're so perfect— lidded eyes looked at them, as one of his hands moved towards the entrance his tongue was just exploring.— Can I?— always so polite, he asks for permission to keep exploring more.
— You shouldn't play with your food— (y/n) says in a breathless whisper. Looking back down at him— but... I'll allow it— Laios smiled softly at their words.
His finger teased the clit first, procuring they were even more wet than before as he slowly pressed kisses all the way back up their abdomen and across their chest until they reached their lips.
Gently teasing the entrance and then pushing his middle finger in, he was met with the warmth and the tightness of their insides as they moaned into his mouth.
—Relax sweetheart...— he whispered near (y/n)'s ear, moving to press a kiss on the space between their ear and their jawline— We're going to be here a while. I like taking my time to enjoy a good banquet— his finger pumped in and out of their pussy beautifully, their slick only providing them with lewd sounds everytime he dipped his finger back in or out. Laios bit down onto their neck, procuring to leave a hickey that everyone was most probably going to be able to see in the morning, and (y/n)'s hips stuttered upwards against his fingers.— You sound so delicious sweetheart— he praised, moving a second finger up to their entrance and penetrating them with both now, eliciting a rather loud moan to escape from them.—Take your time, I'm not stopping until I get to taste your sweet release— Laios mumbled against their jaw.
Gods was that night going to be a beautifully long one.

Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 118 (The Calm Before)
Life continued for Heather and Conrad after their eventful trip to the city. Conrad couldn't be the one to canvas his old apartment building in San Myshuno, but he made arrangements with his partner, Detective Spangler, before he, Heather, and Ash had even returned to Brindleton Bay.
He believed they would find Ximena there, but they had to be discreet, and his team worked with San Myshuno PD to watch the Arts Quarter and confirm their suspicions.
They felt life at home might soon return to normal, so Heather started to think about that wedding and kept up her workouts. Spring would come soon enough, and she'd be able to go for jogs with Gord once the weather warmed, too. Gord couldn't wait for that, either.
Conrad would be able to turn his focus to Rafa and George Brindleton without the threat of Ximena breathing down their necks. While officers worked behind the scenes, the Nesbitt-Gordon household buzzed with contentment.
With the family always happy to see him, River paid a visit to talk with Hazel about her break up. Heather wanted to help, but she had to admit to herself that she was disappointed in Hazel for cheating.
Only 'Old Man River' could find the right words to express disappointment without a hint of judgment, and when he walked into the bedroom, Heather got up to make herself scarce.
River glanced at his younger sister with concern. He could see she was beating herself up and wanted to hear her side of things.
"Why didn't you leave your wife before you called Suri again?"
"I think a part of me wanted to hurt Nicola for how she treated me," admitted Hazel. "I know how terrible that is, but she made me dread coming home some nights, and we kept talking about trying to make it work, but we never did. She was too high maintenance and trying to meet her needs was costing my sanity. I think, more than anything, I was just mad at her, but I feel sick about how much I hurt her. I left town, but she's stuck there trying not to hear everyone whispering about her."
"I wouldn't worry about Nic," River said. "I ran into her mother at the Crumpleclones' flower stall yesterday. She took a sabbatical from the school and Mike's class will have a substitute teacher until she's back. If she comes back. I guess she's going on a show called Dating Deanna that starts filming in Tartosa soon."
Hazel reeled. "Nicola?! On a dating show? Does she know they usually put contestants through their paces and people...people cheat?"
"Maybe she thought her usual ways weren't really working for her anymore."
Hazel considered this with a nod. It was suddenly all too clear why he'd come to see her. "I hope Nic finds someone who makes her happy."
"And is Suri a rebound? Or are you really interested in her?"
"I don't know. I really like her and we have more in common than Nic and I did." Hazel shrugged. "I hope it's real, but we're giving each other space right now, after everything fell apart so publicly."
"That might not be the worst idea, but don't punish yourself and miss out on something that might be really good. You made a mistake and you have to learn from it; it's really that simple, but you're not a horrible person." River offered his little sister a hug, and Hazel accepted it willingly. "Maybe one day you and Nic can get closure for the way everything broke down, but you're on different journeys now, and you both have a chance to find happiness and really discover who you are. That's what really matters."
"Thanks, big bro. I know I'd deserve it if you were all mad at me."
He shook his head with a warm smile. "No you wouldn't. You didn't do anything to us. Just Nic. Maybe Suri, if you dragged her into this for nothing."
He stayed for dinner before heading home, leaving Heather dancing to the aerobics channel on his way out.
Lavender loved to be outside, and if her mom focused too long on her exercising, she'd usually sneak outside with her coat on to play around in the snow. One evening, she found a snowman Ash had built and promptly destroyed it - much to Ash's chagrin.
"I worked hard on that snowman!" he cried, pulling a frightening face to try to scare his little sister. Lavender peeled back in surprise.
"I sowwy, Ashy."
Ash scowled, but he couldn't stay mad at her, and immediately pulled her in for an autonomous hug. "It's okay, Lava. Just try not to do it anymore."
"I'll twy."
The next day, Ash invited his friend Arron Kalani over after school, excited to show off his brilliant new invention. "It's a remote control that will melt the snow!"
He pressed a button. Arron glanced outside the sliding patio doors in the living room and frowned at the white powder that had coated the town since the start of winter. "I don't think it works."
"It's solar powered. When the sun returns in the spring it should power up easier."
Arron turned up his nose in confusion. "What's the point of it working in the spring when the snow will be melted already?"
Lavender sat on the couch and giggled happily. "Ashy took ice-chippy!" she tattled.
Arron chuckled as Ash laughed at his oversight. "It's still pretty cool," Arron insisted. "I bet your next model will work better."
Life was always good, but the Nesbitt-Gordons couldn't help but feel as though things had never been better. For once, they weren't afraid to be hopeful. Heather kept working hard at Buttercup Pet Clinic, and Conrad focused on some other cases at work.
He had just finished looking over Officer Adler's notes on the recent Mercury Gratz assault case when the text they'd all been waiting for came in from Detective Spangler.
"We got her, Lieutenant. She was booked at San Myshuno PD first thing this morning." ->
<- Previous Chapter | Gen 2 Start | Gen 2.1 Summary
Gen 1 Start | Gen 1 Summary
NOTE: Arron is the son of Zoe Patel and Mitchell Kalani, and he has younger twin siblings Isabelle and Xavier.
Thought I'd end the year on a high note with Ximena behind bars! The second batch of year-end favourite screenies comes tomorrow before the story continues on New Year's Day, but the last one could rival any of the last 25, in my opinion.

Radiostatic/Voxal Fic Rec List
Welcome to my Radiostatic/Voxal Fic Rec List! ^_^ This will include romantic, platonic, and/or queerplatonic Radiostatic fics (and admittedly probably a couple of Radiosilence fics, too).
I will keep updating this periodically as I read more fics, so feel free to check back every once and a while! I'll reblog it when I update it, plus make a note with the date at the top. Trust me, this is by no means a complete list; there's fics I still want to add to this that I just haven't gotten to yet. I just decided to go ahead and post it anyways, because if I kept waiting until I ran out of fics to rec I'd probably be working on this forever.
These are not in any particular order; I'm going by both my Bookmarks list on AO3 and my memory of fics I forgot to bookmark. I also tried to make notes on what fics were written before season 1 released, but I might have missed some, so keep that in mind.
Please let me know if any links don't work or are wrong!
✨Before you proceed:✨ read the tags on these fics if you decide to read them. Many of them have heavy material - no surprise given the fandom, but still, felt like this needed said. On that note, there's also fics with explicit material and some fics are straight up PWP. Again, read at your own risk/heed the tags.
Fic Rec List Masterpost
Staticmoth Fic Rec List
Misc. Vox Fic Rec List
------
Radio Healed the Video Star by Aspiring_Forest_Witch
Summary: Alastor comes across an unconscious and battered Vox while out on one of his strolls. He feels compelled to bring him back to the hotel.
Notes: 98% of this fic was written before season 1 was released, so keep that in mind, because there's obviously going to be inconsistencies with canon. It's nearly finished (at least according to the author's notes in the latest chapters, I think). I suggest pacing yourself with this one - it's nearly 700k words long. I ruined a good sleep schedule staying up to get through it. (So worth it though.) There are quite a few OCs in later chapters, but they're such good OCs. You fall in love with them just as much as the canon characters, I swear. I would die for Verity and the Trio.
Let's Misbehave by joosymango
Summary: Alastor wins a bet against Vox, now his rival must stop pestering him for two weeks. It should be a pleasant break! So why does he miss the idiot?
Notes: Vaguely inspired by Aspiring_Forest_Witch's Radio Healed the Video Star. Also largely written before season 1 release. First fic I read for the HH fandom. ^_^
Safe with Me Series by rillo (rillyrillo)
Summary: Having only ever set his sights on men who treat women with odious disrespect, Alastor never thought he'd take interest in Vox's turbulent relationship with his fiancé and business partner, Valentino. He decides to lend a helping hand in the hopes of getting Vox out of his sticky situation. After all, what are childhood enemies for?
Unfortunately, neither Alastor nor Vox could've predicted the rollercoaster of unsaid emotions and future horrors that are thrown their way. Will they be able to rely on each other and get by unscathed? Or will destiny have other plans for these two?
[HUMAN AU] [There's art included for the human designs]
Notes: It's so, so good. ;-; Heed the tags. There's a prequel consisting of oneshots, plus a sequel (listed below, bc I can't not put it here)! And there's ART! So much art!
You, My Everything by rillo (rillyrillo)
Summary: Some say that love can conquer all, even in Hell.
Vox begged to differ, and he was damn well sure Alastor did too – or at least he would be, if Alastor hadn’t become one big question mark.
Sequel to Safe with Me.
Notes: Only read if you've read Safe With Me!!! Still pretty early in the story but so good. ;-; The angst, I swear...
You're on the Air by rillo (rillyrillo)
Summary: A series of short, daily conversations between a radio host and his avid listener, as the two learn more about each other’s lives over the air. Set in the late 90s/early 2000s.
Notes: Same author as Safe with Me, but not set in the same universe! This one is set up in a literal radio show format; almost entirely dialogue-centric.
Of Candied Pine and Cherried Smoke by rillo (rillyrillo)
Summary: Inspired by x_Arcticfox_x’s fanfiction: Blue Raspberries And Cherry Cola
After overdosing on them one too many times to curb the steadily weakening suppressants, Vox's body rejects them outright. Now with his scent getting stronger, he finds himself struggling to hide his true status as an Omega. In his desperation, he seeks help from the one person that knows his secret: Alastor.
Notes: Omegaverse. Same author as Safe with Me series and You're on the Air!
Blue Raspberries And Cherry Cola by x_Arcticfox_x
Summary: Vox is an omega, that's his biggest secret.
During his life time he hid this fact using suppressants, and counited to in death. One day he runs out of pills and his supplier is out of stock for the time being so Vox is forced to submit to the torture of going through heat for the first time in decades.
Too bad his business partner only see's omega's as mere object's...
But hey, at least Angel found him just in time, right?
Notes: Omegaverse. Currently on hold, but has 14 chapters currently available for reading. :)
Once Bitten, Twice Shy by The_Penny_Tails
Summary: Alastor decides that it's time to claim what is rightfully his, consequences be damned.
Notes: It's not porn but it might as well have been for how fucking intense this scene was. 😳
Dripping Pink by The_Penny_Tails
Summary: Just before an Overlord meeting, Alastor gets infected by an off-market, highly potent, and incredibly dangerous love potion. Nobody realises until it's too late.
Notes: Simultaneously funny as fuck and erotic as all hell. I suffered from so much secondhand embarrassment on Vox's behalf. It's wonderful. :D
Lucidity's Fog by The_Penny_Tails
Summary: Ever since he met Alastor, Vox has been having raunchy dreams about the deer. Those dreams suddenly stop when Alastor disappears. For seven years, he's free of the guilt, of the shame brought on by his unconscious desire.
Until Alastor comes back, and Vox is plagued by a new dream the same day he finds out about the news. This time, however, something is distinctively different about how the deer is acting.
Notes: Author tagged for light angst, but ngl the ending did not feel like 'light' angst to me lol. Hurt in a good way.
Finger Tips and Dotted Lips by The_Penny_Tails
Summary: Alastor has sensitive hands; he finds this out at the most inconvenient time possible. Unfortunately, Vox is the one who ends up paying the price for it.
Having to help a seemingly broken Overlord whilst navigating this new discovery proves to be a little more taxing than the Radio Demon could ever have imagined.
Notes: Alastor is such a troll in this omg.
Thawing Out by Seaside_Dreaming
Summary: Seeing a small crack in Vox's screen nags at Alastor more than he likes to admit.
Vox wishes things were better. Sooner or later, Alastor has to come to terms with the fact he has feelings, in general.
Notes: Written before season 1 release. HIGHLY suggest reading the prequel one-shot. It's not necessary to understand the plot here, but you should read it anyway.
Static by passthevoxcord
Summary: Vox creates a new and improved version of himself to please Val, only to be replaced by it. He is left beaten and broken with no one to turn to . . . except maybe his oldest enemy, Alastor.
Notes: Written before season 1 release.
Hating you feels so good by TwoBitJester
Summary: Vox obsesses over his returned enemy and finds himself a little too wound up
Notes: Very good PWP.
Laced Over Dinner by hazbinhearts
Summary: Vox is persuaded to dress a little differently over dinner for Alastor, but finds it remarkably uncomfortable as the night goes on. Written for VoxWeek21 Day 3: dressing up [appearance, formal, dance].
Notes: Written before season 1 release. Corsets. 😳
Observer by DeviousPossum
Summary: He moved the cursor to click off, when he suddenly heard a very recognizable static laced tone.
Alastor.
Alastor.
What the fuck. Alastor is singing.
Vox unintentionally ran claw marks across his desk, an increasingly common habit for him as of late. He grimaced at his now ruined table and unsuccessfully tried to reel in an inexplicable feeling that could only be described as jealousy.
Notes: Porn with a tiny bit of plot in the first chapter. :3
RadioTV Week 2021 Series by Heliosolar
Summary: Pretty much the title; various prompts.
Notes: Written before season 1 release. All worth reading, though they aren't connected.
Sharkblocking by Anonymous
Summary: Alastor is Vox’s number one rival. Incidentally, though nobody involved is aware of it, Alastor’s number one rival is actually Vox’s pet shark.
In which Alastor is actually a little obsessed back and Vark is the biggest obstacle to Radiostatic short of canon itself.
Notes: VARK!
Control + V by TooManyPsuedonyms
Summary: Vox and Alastor have a... thing. Not quite a relationship, but something. Vox is too scared to define it properly, and Alastor is dead set that Vox will eventually get bored of his lack of reciprocity and move on.
So, Valentino tries to show Vox what he is missing.
... too bad Vox didn't want him like that. ... too bad Alastor didn't know want is a vague word.
Notes: Heed the tags!!! There's currently a sequel; I haven't read it yet, but I definitely plan to. 👀
gift of the magi by vol_ctrl
Summary: "... Although husband and wife are now left with gifts that neither one can use, they realize how far they are willing to go to show their love for each other, and how priceless their love really is ..."
Alastor/Vox established relationship fluff.
Notes: Written before season 1 release. Very sweet. ^_^
the lost tape by vol_ctrl
Summary: There's a NEW ambitious media demon in Pentagram City. You never get a second chance to make a first impression, right?
Notes: Written before season 1 release.
12 Days of Yuletide by vol_ctrl
Summary: A parody of the 12 Days of Christmas traditional tune, as can only be done by Vox gifting to his beloved adversary.
Or, a series of letters from the desk of Alastor upon receiving a series of increasingly elaborate gifts from his insufferably modern foil during the holiday season.
Notes: Written before season 1 release.
Fear makes the heart grow fonder by Graysongirl
Summary: After a bit of inspiration from an unlikely source Vox comes up with the plan that scaring Alastor is the best route to gaining his affections. The haunted house at LuLu World seems like the perfect (safe) environment for a bit of pre-planned scaring...
[Stand-alone staticradio]
Notes: Written before season 1 release. Funny af. "Red! Red!" XD
Cordyceps, King of Ants by spappest
Summary: Vox is tired. Of Valentino. Of Velvette. Of Alastor, and Hell, and everything in between. He can't escape, but he can cut himself off, piece by piece, until he feels nothing at all. Alastor takes exception to this approach and commissions a certain princess of Hell to fix his foe. Now Vox has a hotel of misfits on one side of him, overlords on the other, and Alastor crushing his cage ever smaller.
Clearly, the only way Vox will get any peace and quiet is to just kill God.
Valentino did always tell him that he had no chill.
Notes: Started before season 1 was released. Technically features Staticmoth but it's not the focus as much as Radiostatic (which honestly has a relationship status of ??? not romantic but also not friendship or even strictly enemies...just...Alastor and Vox). O_O I think about this fic on a daily basis.
Russian Roulette by spappest
Summary: Vox and Alastor play a game that Vox is way too excited to lose.
Notes: Started before season 1 release. Take note!!! I'm putting this on the Radiostatic list because it's almost entirely centered on Alastor and Vox's dynamic, but the romantic relationship is Staticmoth. The Staticmoth is just not featured very much.
Vox and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Afterlife by spappest
Summary: Alastor goes into rut.
Vox has a bad time. Then a good time. Then a very bad time. Then a brief vacation. Then a confusing time.
Notes: Background Staticmoth, but Radiostatic is most prominent. Funny af. Alastor and Vox have...a very special relationship. Lol.
Killer Ex by FanGirl48
Summary: Alastor was a serial killer who valued his privacy. So when someone who claims to know what he is tries to barge into his life he can't let them live, his secret must be protected at all cost.
A normally easy task easy task becomes complicated when Alastor's ex-boyfriend is dragged into the whole thing forcing the serial killer to go visit them for the first time in seven years.
Notes: Human AU. Love me some possessive Alastor. <3
Negotiations by FanGirl48
Summary: Vox had no interest in attending a meeting between Heaven and Hell following the failed attack by the Adam and his Exterminators. Alastor's little gremlin caused the mess, so he can go clean it up. Vox had nothing wanted nothing to do with the radio demon, king of hell or heaven.
But that was before Lucifer made the media overlord aware of Valentino's little job offer to his daughter.
Damnit Valentino!
Notes: "And they were roommates!" "Oh my god they were roommates"
Down, Up, and Back Down by CowboyEnthusiast
Summary: Vox dies. Surprisingly no one takes this well.
Or, Vox dies and Alastor tries to drag his soul back from Purgatory.
Notes: Another fic I think about daily... Heavy themes. Heed the tags.
Hold Me Like a Grudge by Rachello344
Summary: Alastor has spent a long time running from Vox. Vox has chased after him almost as long. When suppressants fail throughout the city, they finally collide.
Notes: Omegaverse. Fun fact about this author: all their Radiostatic fic titles are from Fall Out Boy lyrics lol. (I fucking love FOB sue me.) I haven't yet read all of Rachello344's Radiostatic fics, BUT I have them all on my To Read list because I've loved everything I've read of theirs so far lol.
What Makes You So Special? by Rachello344
Summary: With Lucifer’s return to the Pride Ring, the other Deadly Sins were bound to take notice. When Asmodeus stops by the Pride Ring to visit the Morningstars, the Vees are able to make a deal to host a pop-up shop of the incredibly popular Lust Ring establishment, Ozzie’s, bringing it to the Pride Ring for the first time.
When Vox and Alastor both attend the restaurant’s opening night, long repressed sparks fly, forever changing their relationship.
Notes: Because of the pacing of this (sex first romance later), I feel like this is the Radiostatic equivalent of Femalefonzie's Freak-A-Zoid (a really good Staticmoth fic). This is hands down one of the most romantic Radiostatic fics I've read. ^_^
Hold Me Tight (or Don't) by Rachello344
Summary: Alastor and Vox finally come to an understanding, both of each other and of what they each mean to the other. Their relationship evolves accordingly, one concession at a time, until they both get everything they could possibly want: power, companionship, and even love.
Notes: So, so good.
Keep You Like an Oath by Rachello344
Summary: Alastor normally wouldn’t bother with the chore—breaking into V Tower was quite a lot of work, even for him—but he found himself curious about what Vox and his little friends might be working on. Especially since whatever it was had Angel concerned enough to report back to the rest of the hotel about it.
Of course, before he can learn anything, he’ll need to sneak past Vox’s watchful eye…
Notes: God it's just...so good. Read it. Radiostatic reconciliation. One thing I love about Rachello344 writing Radiostatic is Alastor's terms of endearment for Vox. ^_^
To Be Yours by pinegreenapples
Summary: Alastor hears something he hasn't heard in years. He decides to investigate why now, of all times, this frequency has turned back on. Vox is not amused.
Notes: Hurt no comfort. Hurts so good, though. ;-;
oleanders in june by spoondrifts
Summary: It seems like while Alastor was off preying on the self-destructive addictions of desperate sinners, Vox was off getting himself beaten half to death, probably from spouting belligerent nonsense at someone with violent tendencies and a far lower threshold for disrespect than Alastor. Not everyone finds poor Vox’s chatter as charming as he does.
If Vox is unconscious, then Vox is not being entertaining, and Alastor came here to have fun, not play nursemaid.
Or: Drunk on power and itching to cause some mayhem, Alastor hunts down the only person in the city who's always up for anything. Unfortunately, he finds Vox... not exactly in tip-top shape. No matter; he can work with that too.
Notes: ^_^ Very sweet.
equilibrium by curtailed
Summary: Post-Finale. The Hotel finds Alastor right on the front lawn, unconscious and bleeding, still injured from Adam's blade. While he recovers, all of Hell scrambles to find out who his mysterious rescuer is.
Meanwhile, Vox tries not to freak out that he might have accidentally made a soul bond to save that deer asshole's life. All he had wanted to do was to scope out the ruins of Alastor's radio tower. Fuck him for being curious, he supposed.
Notes: This fic has me in a CHOKEHOLD. I love the characterizations so, so much. Manages to fit in humor alongside the angst. One of the best fight scenes I've ever seen put into words. Curtailed really took Vox and Alastor as characters and planned out a cool fucking fight scene using their unique abilities. I automatically love anything tagged with "one fell first but the other fell harder" lol.
candlelight by curtailed
Summary: Despite the #SirRepentious success, Heaven remains skeptical of a sinner's ability to change. Logic gets lost somewhere, and really, what's a better way to show sinners can be marginally less horrible than to stick two Overlords who hate each other in the same living space?
OR
Alastor and Vox play house.
Notes: The comedy of Alastor and Vox being forced to be civil with each other and then unintentionally becoming very domestic together. Lol
wallow by curtailed
Summary: A 2+1 fic. Two times when Alastor and Vox were in a love triangle (hard quote on love, hard quote on triangle), and the one time Alastor had Vox to himself.
Notes: Only 1 (very good) chapter so far, but safe to say pretty heavy already. Heed the tags.
Addicted by Dancingdog
Summary: After the latest argument with Valentino, Vox finds himself at the Hazbin Hotel. An injured Alastor is less-than-pleased to see him, which is understandable considering they are enemies.
But as more and more of Valentino's venom leaves his system, Vox begins to remember his days before V-Tower and he learns exactly why Alastor rejected his offer all those decades ago.
His memories return in fits and spurts - not all of them good. His past with Alastor isn't something he expected and it turns out that he isn't the only one suffering.
Notes: Dude. This fic hurt me. Such good angst.
Radio Made the Video Star Series by songofhell
Summary: Snippets of Vox and Alastor's afterlife, and their journey from strangers to friends to enemies to... something more.
Notes: Pretty much what the series summary says - a series of installments that chronicle the beginning and subsequent evolution of Alastor and Vox's relationship. Very good, has tons of possessive!Alastor, which I die for.
Uneasy by Saezs
Summary: “Something’s wrong with Voxy.”
Velvette’s eyes snapped to the tall moth pimp. “And?” she prompted with a raised eyebrow. As if she needed to deal with two piss babies this close to a show. Valentino shrugged, tapping away on his phone, and walked away to stand threateningly close to her new models. Before she could snap at him, she saw it; his wings were twitching. Barely noticeable to strangers, just under the hum of the building’s lights, he was squeaking with each tap of his fingers. She felt unease and a healthy dose of aggravation swirl in her stomach.
Or: Vox was roofied and sexually assaulted. Velvette tries to be better than her mother. Unexpected connections are formed.
Notes: Heed the tags! Features genderfluid Vox. :)
Five Times Vox and Alastor Danced and One Time They Didn't by Drowsy_Salamander
Summary: “I say, good fellow, what are you doing on the ground like that?”
The voice was perky, cheerful, and bright. It had a crisp mid-Atlantic accent, the kind Vox remembered being all the rage for stage and film performers back when he first entered the broadcast industry. The diction was crystal clear with every sound enunciated separately to maximise clarity, the consonants clicked and the vowels were broad. It was a performer’s voice.
A voice for radio.
Oh shit.
... Five times Vox and Alastor danced and one time Vox and Alastor didn't.
From their first meeting through their friendship, to their enmity and fighting. From infatuation to yearning to animosity. Dancing is a partnership, is it not?
Notes: Each chapter so far has been a different type of dance, which is really neat. Especially chapter 2. ^_^ That said, there's a feeling of impending doom, knowing what happens to their relationship eventually... Not saying that as a deterrent but just a comment on how I felt while reading it lol. It's very sweet, which is why it hurts to think of future chapters. 🙃
Days Long Past by Momo52
Summary: All sinners of hell bore some physical marks of how they lived and died. Some physical manifestations were more obvious while others were subtle. Vox was not an exception to this rule.
While his television head was an obvious indication of his life while on Earth, the mark he bore from his death was far more subdued. Luckily enough, his shame was easily concealed behind a high collar. Unfortunately, he is just as well known in his afterlife as he was in his life. As such, trying to make everyone believe that he is so much stronger than what his death implies is a constant battle. He only wished that he wasn’t the hardest one to convince.
Notes: I think platonic Radiostatic is the endgame here. Still pretty early in the story, but I'm really liking this author's depiction of Vox and Alastor's pasts. Heed the tags. There are heavy subjects such as suicide (very big theme for Vox's pov) and period-typical racism (in Alastor's past) present in the story.
Remote Access by x-UsoTsuki-x (its_not_reael)
Summary: In the aftermath of Alastor and Vox's electrifying on-air showdown, Vox finds himself unusually rattled. His usual suave demeanor is slipping, much to his cohorts' amusement – and concern. Velvet can do little more than roll her eyes at his antics. Valentino, on the other hand, is convinced that all Vox needs to do is get fucked and relax.
or, alternatively...
The tech-savvy overlord manages to snag a virus from a porn site and finds himself in the arms of his worst enemy.
Notes: Fairly certain this is firmly Radiosilence based on the tags (and the direction of the story so far). Very funny, very hot. Vox is pathetic in this one. Lol
Nun-thing Like You've Ever Seen Series by A_Cypress_Coffin
Summary: Alastor, the feared radio demon with more blood on his hands than most of hell combined, wasn't always as we imagine him. There was a time where instead of a dapper suit and smile he donned a simple vow and habit. That didn't last of course, but the journey is quite something.
Notes: This author has a great sense of humor, lmao. I enjoyed the unique headcanons for Alastor's backstory. The tag that hooked me: "Accidentally becoming a better person through bad domming and found family".
Empathia by The_Oblivious_Swallow
Summary: Creating new technology is boring, sex is physically unappealing, the other Vee’s are so annoying, annoying, annoying! Even Vark, his baby, his pride and joy, doesn’t stir the same joy in his heart like he should.
So, Vox had concluded that it had to go. For his sake.
Notes: Contains Staticmoth, but Radiostatic seems like the endgame (I write this as there is one chapter still left). Really interesting idea. I love Vox.exe so much. ;-;
Every Madman Has His Vice by phantasm_png (chibellero)
Summary: “What the fuck do you want, Alastor? Was it not enough to kill me all those years ago? Now, you had to go for the people I loved and the only things I had left in this fucking Hellhole?”
“It was my fault,” Alastor whispers as he approaches Vox slowly, as if he was some sort of wounded animal he didn’t want to scare off. His prey. “Vox, I’m sorry. If I had a chance to redo that night, I would never have hurt you to this extent. I’ll never harm you again.”
“That’s seven years too fucking late, Alastor.”
OR: Seven years ago, instead of Alastor disappearing, it was Vox who left instead.
Notes: I’m so fucking here for this AU. Possessive Alastor, Vox helping with the hotel, Husk is still an Overlord, yessss
Metathesiophobia (Fear of Change) by phantasm_png (chibellero)
Summary: There's a lot that can change in seven years.
But never once had Alastor expected for something like this from his old rival and older friend.
Or, Alastor and Vox start to rekindle their old friendship again after a shocking discovery strikes the deer demon.
Notes: QPR Radiostatic with MtF Vox! Contains a smidge of Staticmoth, but it's in the background and not the focus. Very well written.
surimi and venison by phantasm_png (chibellero)
Summary: A series of short drabbles (500+ words) in an interconnected universe (peep the tags, they're still in hell), centering around Alastor and his new pet fish... shark... television thing. Will (hopefully) update 1-2 times a week. Written as my attempt at a Mermay series.
Notes: Like the summary says, Mermay prompts featuring SharkHybrid!Vox, along with Alastor, who literally saw Vox and decided to make him his pet. Lol.
an arm and a leg, my dear, les yeux d'la tête by phantasm_png (chibellero)
Summary: “I mean, usually when Val gets mad he gets like, super pissy too an’ starts destroyin’ shit ‘round the set and in his clubs, but like, usually Vox can calm him down. Problem is, where the Hell is that guy? I haven’t seen ‘im round the Tower for like, a month or two now. That ain’t normal.”
“What, so you mean he just up and left?”
“No, but like… he hasn’t been seen ‘in public’ for like, two months now. It’s startin’ to get suspicious. Like, I ‘unno if I’m just paranoid or something, but… Vox is like, the fuckin’ face of Hell’s Entertainment District. When he’s not round for a bit, that’s nothing to worry about on its own… but when he’s not round for a bit an’ Val and Velvette are creeping around, looking for his rival…? I mean… the dots are connecting. If Al did something…”
“If Vox was dead, we would know.” OR: Two months ago, Vox went missing. Right now, it seems as if Alastor has something to hide.
Notes: Vox gets attic-wifed and wears a virgin killer sweater. ^_^
we'll go down together in the ashes of our love by phantasm_png (chibellero)
Summary: Glimpses into the Radio Demon's life as he reluctantly navigates parenthood with his co-parenting partner and the demon princess hoisted onto him by the King and Queen of Hell.
Loosely inspired by Spy X Family.
Notes: CUTE! I love domestic Radiostatic.
What Has Been by Tianren
Summary: Vox has never known peace. From being the son of a egocentric cult leader, to being the boyfriend of a self absorbed abuser. Vox has managed to build a pretty sad life for himself. The only spot of sunshine that had ever blessed his existence was when he met an amateur true crime investigative journalist, with a podcast named, Alastor. The man was his only source of unfiltered news and contact to the world outside his father’s compound. But after Vox finally escaped the cult he waited for Alastor. Waited weeks in their assigned meeting spot just to be forgotten. Vox was convinced he’d stopped waiting for Alastor years ago until he meets the man again seven years later at a hotel. What will reconnecting with his past lead to and will it help him escape the hell he’s built for himself?
Takes place in the late 2000s early 2010s
Trigger warning for religious trauma and abuse as major themes of this story. Will add more warnings if they arise as I go on.
Notes: Really interesting human AU concept!
(Fic rec list to be continued)

Twst boys preferences for their partners
First of all, sorry for taking so long my rosies 😭😭 schools have been getting to me and I'm trying to catch up with the twst stuff again such as reading the story to understand the characters better! My bestie @twst-megane has been helping me a lot with this once again so tysm 🙏🙏🙏
Characters: All NRC students (except Ortho) x Reader Genre: Fluff Reminder: This is just a headcanon post, so even if you aren't your loved one's preference, do not worry! Remember, love might have preference, but it's never the final thing that decides one's partner, so rest assured~ Your lovely twst boys love you no matter what 🌹❤️ Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 (coming soon)
🐙 Azul 🐙
- If you manage to date a charismatic, handsome guy like him then I'd say his s/o is the world's luckiest person ever~ He isn't a person who would easily give his heart to someone else considering what happened to him in the past, so it takes time for him to genuinely fall for someone, and you just so happen to be very special to gain his affection! - He would need a s/o who is emotionally intelligent enough, someone that be able to pick up his feelings even though the signs are so subtle, he might brush it off mostly to keep up the professionalism but I'm sure you're the only one that he can trust showing his real side to you with the way you genuinely care and love him despite not being super touchy or show it obviously. - Because of the past he had, his insecurities are also something that needs a warm helping hand. A s/o with a caring, loving tendency would do so he won't think lowly of himself whenever he's around them. Perhaps at one point, despite his initial charismatic, calm appearance, he would think that he doesn't deserve someone as amazing as you. How can you care so much for him like that even after knowing his past or all the terrible things he did? Yet you just wipe those thoughts away from his mind with a gentle, soft reassurance as your hands caress his, feeling each other's warmth... and you caught his ears turning red~ - He pays attention to his appearance a lot especially after he comes on land, since he can nicely dress himself up and also even change his scent with different kinds of colognes. So I think he would have preferences for appearance too for a partner, maybe a s/o that knows how to dress themselves nicely enough, no need for fancy make-up or flashy clothing, but would be a nice touch if they like to use perfume like him too. He is pretty keen with his senses, and maybe he took a liking to you due to your scent... but he wouldn't openly admit that it smells really nice (or he gonna end up blushing and getting teased by the tweels). - Bonus: Azul would be the type to fumble at first when he got into a relationship, so being patient and teaching him would get him to fall even more for his s/o. He might study and research beforehand, but nothing comes as close as a real experience after all, he would get really flustered during your first kiss or when you embrace him... like a shy octopus, so just take it slow and intimate with him💖
-----------------------------------
🐬Jade 🐬
- Being someone who loves to serve someone as his nature, it's no surprise when his s/o usually being the one receiving instead of giving. He wouldn't have a specific preference when it comes to finding a partner, but he would like it if his s/o let him serve them, it's something he likes to do and he wants you to enjoy it too. Being dependent on him, asking for his help with something when you can't do it by yourself, and he would immediately be there to lend a helping hand. Don't hold back or feel bad because like I said, it's something he likes doing after all. - Though I think he would like it if his s/o treated him equally too, like they're both on the same ground and not just a serving/receiving relationship only. He would find it fascinating that someone like you thought of him that way despite how he keeps offering his service to you, it's just... interesting to him, he probably gave you one of those smiles of his and brushed it off to you but little did you know... you have become the most intriguing person in his eyes and he would like to study you more. (Think of it as a good thing! Probably...) - If his s/o happens to show interest in him, he would be curious and start bringing up topics such as his hobby if they're curious about it, like for example: terrariums or mushrooms. Even better if his s/o actually shows genuine attention to them, he would feel delighted as you both talk about the said topic for hours until it's time to bid goodbye and get back. He felt like he seemingly just found a great partner, someone he is interested in as you're also interested in him... I'd say it's a special mutual feeling~ - He probably has researched a lot about the fashion on the land, hence why you see him dress up really well in a lot of times, so I think he would like it if his s/o knew how to dress nicely on the right occasion. Like Azul, he doesn't need you to wear fancy or flashy clothing, but just taking care of your look properly is enough, maybe some light perfume would catch his attention too as he would be able to tell that you were here or you're around this area easier with your scent (It's less work for him in a sense too) - Bonus: I think surprises would get him the most. Maybe something like knowledge about mushrooms or attempting to build a mini terrarium and show it to him, he would be delighted that you actually spent time on something like this just to impress him, and you sure did but that's not the only thing that will happen (his heart will be impressed too) 💖
-----------------------------------
🦈Floyd 🦈
- The most unpredictable out of all characters, he can have such constant mood swings that make it hard for others to keep up with him, so I think his s/o should be someone that at least be able to handle them and doesn't get impatient with it. The moment he gets bored with someone he'll move on quickly, as such, patience is something that you would need when you date Floyd. If you can't keep up with his eccentric, constantly changing personality or easily get irritated then it'll be hard to put the relationship together. - He is pretty open when it comes to dating or preference because he won't be the one the reciprocate easily, his s/o should be someone who at least show constant interest in him or know how to get loose and have fun occasionally of when the right time come, maybe even know to play pranks too. He would be surprised in a way that makes him all chuckling and laughing in an... interesting way, don't worry, it's just how he usually is so don't get too startled, it just means he's having fun and you'd probably prefer it whenever he does. Also, it means he's having fun because of you, which is a great thing since you're that intriguing to him! - Though, it doesn't have to be someone that know how to have fun all the time, it could be a s/o who is pretty attentive, they can read his body language or treat him with genuine emotions, especially to not treat him like he's stupid or a fool. He might act like that but he needs respect too! I think he would be pretty impressed if you're able to guess what is he thinking right now from his behaviors (considering only Jade would be able to do that) and would squeeze you like a happy eel guy he is. - Unlike Azul and Jade, I don't think he would have a preference for appearance too much since he's pretty open to anything. He also doesn't pay attention to his looks most of the time too since well... You see how he dresses up most of the time. But since he's pretty interested in shoes, maybe if you happen to have a bit of knowledge about them then it'll impress him since he's quite fixated on the said topic. I think he would be pretty keen with his nose too so he can tell what kinda scent you got like Jade, he probably doesn't have a favorite scent but as long as it's nothing too heavy or so then he'll be absolutely whipped~ - Bonus: Squeezing hours is the most effective way for someone like Floyd! He will give you a silly sea creature nickname as a way to show his affection but also hug- I mean, squeeze you often too whenever he caught a glimpse of you around the school. If you treat him well he'll really enjoy being around you, so I hope you're ready for the most random squeezing ever from the silly guy himself 💖
-----------------------------------
🕌Kalim🕌
- This big ball of sunshine definitely needs someone who knows how to take care of others or be attentive, knowing how clumsy he can be, he needs a s/o who loves to take care of him or pay a lot of attention just in case he accidentally injures himself again (might as well call you Jamil's sibling-), but when he sees how worried you look whenever you look out for him, he will try his best to be careful with himself too! The last thing he wanna see is your sad face after all so he'll remember your advice as best as he can! - He needs someone who has stability and balance to themselves so they won't feel tired out when they're with him, knowing how energetic he can be. Taking care of himself and making sure he's okay is one thing, but he also wants you to look out for your health too and not just all about him! You both would look out for each other (even though it's mostly your side), it's a relationship of caring and giving mutually and constantly~ - I feel like other than stability, he would like a s/o who knows how to have fun too when the time comes. Who wouldn't like some fun once in a while! He probably drags his s/o around to have fun with him, whether it be having a banquet or a ride with the magic carpet, he wants to see that pretty smile of yours every day, especially when you stay by his side, it just makes things more special to him you know? It's like he's the only one that can make you all bright and cheered up or show you a whole new world! - I think when he gets into a relationship, he can be a bit of a big puppy or touchy, I mean, who doesn't enjoy a warm, loving hug from your loved one? So he might need a s/o that doesn't mind too much skinship at the time or maybe even enjoys sudden hugs out of nowhere. Of course, he still knows how to respect boundaries at times or read the mood, but when he gets too happy he just couldn't help but embrace you! You bring him immense joy, so treasure those moments as much as you can, because there isn't anybody else that's like him after all. - Bonus: It's a bit hard to get him to like someone in a specific way, since in a sense anything could get him to like you, he is pretty easy to gain affection with how soft and kind he is compared to other characters, but if you're being forward and direct with your feelings then he'll surely return those feelings even stronger or brighter like the sunshine he is💖
-----------------------------------
🐍Jamil 🐍
- Being the vice leader of Scarabia with tons of work every day, I'm sure he can get very tired sometimes even though he doesn't show it on his face; that's why I think he needs a s/o that would be there to take care and reminds him to get loose or to take breaks in between. He's the one giving most of the time so it would be nice if it's the opposite once in a while. It doesn't need to be anything too grand, just a gentle reminder from you or maybe you can be sweeter and put a small note in between his school books with tiny scribbles here in there that reads "Daily reminder: Take a break in between! ;)". He definitely would not show it to anyone else in case he gets embarrassed, but he really appreciates that someone cares for him this much and wants the best for him despite the way he keeps burdening himself with work and chores and doesn't have too much free time. - Like Kalim, he probably needs someone who is also stable and has balance in their life so they can manage themselves better without needing other's help, he would be impressed his s/o knows how to organize things so well without his help (since he usually ended up being the helping hand most of the time) and wonder if you grow up being by yourself or perhaps used to be the same situation as him... Either way, he would compliment you for your independence and admit it out loud, he isn't a person who saves the praising for nothing. Speaking of that, maybe you could give some compliments to him too in return for his hard work. He is used to praises, but if it comes from you then it just hits differently. It feels like he actually got appreciated genuinely with kindness! - He's a member of the basketball club and is very good at the said sport, so I think he would like a s/o that also has decently good stamina to keep up with him. As in whenever he's busy, you can be there to help him out including all the heavy work too. And don't let his "It's okay, I'm used to it" get to you! Or maybe whenever the chances come, be the one that serves him. No, not as in the literal sense of serving like a servant, but just let him sit down, take a breather, and make sure he got enough rest (and no but for him!) - He won't have a preference much for appearance in my opinion, he is pretty open to any type of look, but perhaps he would like someone who is more expressive or cheerful looking than him. He isn't a very emotional person, so if he sees his partner being lively and happy then he'll unconsciously smile before he realizes it, even though he sighs at first after that realization (He does sigh a lot, but it's more like in a "guess it can't be helped then" kinda way y'know). - Bonus: Acts of gratitude and kindness will get him to fall for someone the most. If his s/o is willing to lend a helping hand or make the work lighter for him, he'll be thankful though he might insist that you don't need to help him (since he is used to it), but don't give up! It always takes time for a person to fall in love, and that includes Jamil so just be patient, your kindness will surely get to his heart 💖
-----------------------------------
👑 Vil 👑
- In my opinion, he would have the highest standard when it comes to appearance out of all the characters in here. I mean, he's the housewarden of Pomefiore we're talking about here, his standard is if not, someone that looks like they take care of themselves well at the very least. He will not stand people that don't do self-care or at least pay attention to their appearance! As the sentence goes "How you look is how you treat yourself", he is definitely taking that motto seriously (and no but!). - However, despite his strict nature, he's still a person with a soft side deep down. If his s/o is someone who isn't confident about their appearance or feels like they look "bad", he's here to erase those thoughts away! He'll make sure his s/o is the most shining diamond in the crowd, that they'll look as pretty as him to show how powerful you two are as a couple, and nobody will get to slander you or your look, not when the dorm leader of Pomefiore is here. Those who bully you will never get to see the sunlight again the moment he find out, he can be very terrifying if he's angry after all, and he isn't someone weak either, only fools would dare to pick a fight with him or you - his precious, beautiful partner. - Do try to not get sad if he acts strict around you, since he's always acting like that in pursuit of beauty, and he also wants the best for you. He will remind you to properly take care of yourself both physically and mentally, and make sure you get the best of the best treatment, even if it comes off as a bit harsh. He wants to see one's hard efforts they put into themselves, how much they went through to appear as they want today, it's just like him too, and that's why he'll feel really proud once his words really come through and see how confident you're in your current look and will praise you for it, like serious, genuine praising, and Vil is definitely not someone that give cheap compliments easily! - When it doesn't come to beauty-related topics, he can actually give you useful advice to improve your health or study. Surprises or not, he is very strong despite his elegant, poised look. Of course, you aren't the only one that gets shocked at this. (As you can see what happened to Ace and Deuce) Even better if you take his advice seriously and start taking care of your health, he'll be really proud that you actually listen to him instead of some other stubborn potatoes out there. - Bonus: He is pretty hard to come through, but I believe acts of genuine emotions will get to his heart the most. Instead of praising and admiring his beauty, you could admire the efforts that he put in instead. Tell him that he has gone through a lot, or that he is very hardworking, very attentive or always wants the best for himself. He'll be delighted to hear that's what you like... no, love about him instead of his usual beautiful look. He'll admit it, for a little potato, you sure know how to really appreciate someone else genuinely that even he can feel it 💖
-----------------------------------
🍎Epel 🍎
- I think for Epel, he would need someone who wouldn't judge others based on their look and look at their real strength instead. As someone appearing ephemeral and dainty, he would often get called pretty in a way that makes him sound weak, and it's not something he likes at all. So, as his s/o, the first thing you should do is not judging him and treat him equally! He'll like compliments but not those that make him sound too cutesy or fragile. - Maybe his s/o could be someone that has the same situation as him: appearing weak but having a strong and somewhat even rumble personality. You two would get along due to the mutual feelings of understanding each other's struggles. He would find relief knowing someone having the same troubles as him as you guys both talking and laughing to each other, gradually getting relaxed the more you two hung out. Epel rarely ever shows his real self to someone else due to how difficult to make out what he's saying with his accent, but with you, he feels like it's a normal thing as you also show your real side to him as well more than just one time, it's like a mutual thing. It's okay if you didn't get what he meant at first but I think you'll... get it eventually. - I think he would like a s/o that is also physically strong, as he always admires and looks up to Savanaclaw students for that reason, so the moment he found out how easily you can lift up those chairs or have good stamina, our apple boy would be impressed! Even better if you rarely ever show your strength, he will ask you such things like how can you be that strong?? Or teach him your training methods! And maybe he would end up idolizing you even, for how amazing you're to him! - I think he'll like a s/o that is also pretty creative in their work. Since he has a great apple-cutting skill and can turn a normal apple into beautiful pieces of art so they'll attract others better, that's why he'll be impressed seeing someone artistic or creative with turning normal, ordinary things into arts like him. It feels like you're someone who can see the beautiful potential from the plainest thing ever without any judgment beforehand, like how you see the real, hidden strength in him despite his appearance. - Bonus: For someone who is actually very competitive and rumbles on the inside, maybe he'll fall for someone who is on the same level of competitiveness as him. Just you two going around having fun activities, like flying around the school with the broom, playing magishift together, etc. Or even having competitions of the most random thing ever, Epel feels like he doesn't need to restrict himself in any way whatsoever when he's with you, and that would get him to fall for you so much 💖
-----------------------------------
🏹Rook🏹
- A true fan of beauty, he would praise anyone with pretty words or being a bit... overwhelming with it. So I think he doesn't really have a big preference since in a sense he would literally call others pretty, but if his s/o is someone who also loves beauty or somehow gets what he means then he'll be so impressed he starts praising you a whole lot instead. (It's his way of showing affection, so I hope you can keep up with it). He tends to find other people interesting in one way or another, and thus he would feel the same about you, so try to not be too startled if he suddenly appears out of nowhere and greets you in French or asks you the most random question ever (whether you expect it or not). He's pretty affectionate in his own way after all. - Although he may look and act like it, I think he can tell when someone has a beautiful heart or not. If his s/o is someone with an admirable, pretty heart then you're about to catch him painting a portrait of you soon enough with tears in his eyes (he means it genuinely though, looking like it or not). People often find him weird due to his eccentric personality so trust me, you aren't the first one that feels like that... but once you get used to it and start talking to him more often, you'll find out that he's actually a really kind, supportive person. He loves encouraging others and seeing their strength, such a sparkly, beautiful thing to see one's willpower! (according to him) - He is also a pretty sociable person, so maybe his s/o could be someone who can be sociable enough or have enough energy to keep up with random conversations, it would be tiring to be in a relationship with someone like him when you don't like socializing now wouldn't it? Of course, as a (surprisingly) attentive person, he'll know how to set the boundary between you two, but he always hopes you're up for a conversation with him since you're so interesting! He's amazed every time he watches over you and your behavior (it's just one of his habits... as a hunter, or so he said). - Since he has a very specific sense of beauty and art, maybe his s/o could also be a fellow appreciator of art and poetry. Not many people are seriously into arts as they would find it rather "old-timed", so the moment he knows, he'll be super whipped with you and the way you view art in your eyes! It doesn't even have to be historical, renascence type of art, if your sense of beauty is unique, he'll be attracted to them as well and to you, that just means you're so special in his eyes~ - Bonus: He is definitely into surprises no doubt! A small bouquet, a random doodle or sketch or even just a compliment will do, he loves it when he receives such beautiful things from you that he might end up shedding tears (again, but it's a good thing y'know) 💖

Note
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this because I based the whole premise of my current fic on this: What you do think the "Incident" that completely changed Viper was?
The obvious answer would be the assassination attempt, but I think there might be more to it as traumatic as the event was to Viper. Her voice line "I will not lose my home again!" is also interesting in that aspect because I cannot see how that ties to the assassination or, by a long stretch since it was the most significant Omega attack, Venice
I feel like either Riot just purposefully left this vague because they're, well, Riot, or there is a huge chunk of Viper's backstory that they're hiding from us
Ohhhh man. Thank you for giving me a chance to yap about this actually—I have SO many thoughts.
Personally, I don't think that the "Incident™" was her assassination attempt. I dare say that I'm 90% sure it wasn't, and yes, I firmly believe that we're still missing a LARGE portion of her backstory. Okay walk with me on this one, this is going to take a while.
First of all, we have been explicitly told by 2 agents now that Viper used to be in the business of saving people. Vyse's voiceline, "We saved the world once, Sabine. I don't doubt we can do it again," could technically be more science related, so I'll admit that that isn't very indicative of much other than the fact Viper seems quite protective of Earth. Omen's voiceline, however, leaves a lot less room for guess work: "Just think, Sabine. You used to heal with your skill. Funny."
"Heal" is a VERY specific word to use here, and I also think that—aside from the whole Doctor Sabine thing with Cypher—it's the reason that many people, myself included, headcanon that she used to be involved in the medical field. This is also supported by the fact that she's able to somehow help Lucia with her health problems. But back to why this is relevant; as of the Reckoning cinematic, where we see the flashback of Viper's assassination attempt, she is ALREADY VIPER-IFIED.
Okay, so what do I mean by that? Well, her employment at Kingdom alone suggests that for whatever reason, she's already turned her back on "healing" and begun focusing on chemistry. In addition, her demeanor in the Reckoning flashback, while possibly warped since we see this from Omen's POV, is quite...detached, for someone who was just nearly killed. We know that Omen scared/scares her here, as shown by her later behavior when talking about this event, but in the moment, she seems focused. Logical. And, now for the main evidence of her "Viper-ification," she already has her snakebite made, and her mask at the ready. The mask could be excused if she often works with gases, but the literal corrosive acid? Yeah, I have trouble believing she created that for work, Chief Scientific Officer or not.
All of this implies that she's already being plagued by ideas for revenge, which I'm confident stem from the actual incident that made her the way she is. As you said, the assassination attempt was quite traumatic, but not devastating or life-altering in the way that Viper and Fade make the Incident™ seem to have been, especially considering Viper willingly chose to recruit Omen to the VP and treat him kindly after he lost his memories. If he truly was the cause of her current mental state, all of that hatred and anger she seethes would be directed at him—and yet none of it is.
Now with all of that out of the way and onto your actual question, what was the Incident™? Well, I've always personally thought that it MUST have something to do with the deaths of her family and/or a partner.
Let's take a look at these voicelines (bolded words are especially relevant):
"Let's take from them what they took from me—everything!" "I will not lose my home again!" "I'll take everything from them." "You wanted a villain? I gave you a villain!" "I am your monster. You made me this way! Never forget that." "Something wrong, KAY/O? Death's on your conscience? We're not so different after all." "What's it like, Reyna, fighting to keep a loved one alive? No, please. Tell me." (Not as straightforward as the others, but something about her delivery of this line is just...off.) "Sage, you're the only one who can keep us alive. Don't fail us now like you failed me then." "Never, ever assume you can help me. You can't help me, you can't help them!"
Notice a pattern? Viper is the only agent—and I cannot emphasize that enough, the only agent—who speaks to and about Omega Earth and its agents this personally. She acts like she's has been personally wronged BY THEM, as if they've ruined not only her life, but also her herself. She acts like they specifically are the ones responsible. And the term "everything" is very broad, so it doesn't tell us much other than something extremely important to Viper was taken, but what's more important to someone than their family?
And then there's the recurring theme of deaths/loved ones/"them."
Often times, when Viper says "them," she's referring to the enemy. But that last voiceline is her response to Sage bringing up an offer that she has apparently extended to Viper before, so we can only assume that the "them" here is referring not only to important people to Viper, but also important people who Sage thinks she could help; moreover, people who need help in the first place. Then there's the KAY/O voiceline, which implies that Viper, too, has deaths on her conscience. And the Reyna voiceline, like I mentioned earlier, I personally think is delivered in such a way that makes it seem like Viper DOES know what it's like, and she's being almost sarcastic/bitter when prompting Reyna to tell her about it.
This is why I think that the Incident has to do with her family/loved ones in particular. I think that Viper's literal home could have been destroyed, maybe, but considering she's American, let's be honest, that's quite unlikely. What I do think is more likely, however, is that Viper's home was somehow invaded, and her family—be it parents, siblings, partner, kids, etc.—was injured or killed because of it. Viper's other voiceline about Sage failing her in the past also supports this, because while that could be referring to Omen (considering Sage seems to be involved in Omen's past somehow), I find it much more probable that Sage and Viper crossed paths because of The Incident™. And why would Viper need a healer if she didn't have people who needed healing?
I also believe this is all very intentional on Riot's part, teased but not fully revealed yet. Not only because of all the evidence I've already listed, but because of Viper's playlist on Spotify. There are several songs on it that mention houses/homes being burnt down, and one even highlights family relations in specific. And, fun fact, you know the whole March 20th thing with Viper? Well, a lovely friend of mine actually caught an interesting detail: this year, around the actual date March 20th, Riot briefly added two songs to Viper's official playlist. Those songs were Sick of the Sun by Poppy and My Limb by Hayley Williams, and I'll save you the research—Sick of the Sun literally has a lyric saying "I'm sick of the sun, it burns everyone," and the entire song features a general theme of exhaustion and possible suicidal ideation. My Limb, on the other hand, is about losing a partner specifically, and the grief that comes with it. It also features a lyric saying, "If your part of me is gone now, do I wanna survive?"
Now, those two songs have since been removed, but both the topics and artists suggest that they were intentionally put on that playlist (since Paramore and Poppy are both artists that have songs on it). And, to be quite honest, even I'm not sure what to make of the whole recurring theme of her home literally burning down yet. But even without that, I feel like the rest of the stuff I mentioned is evidence enough of my theory lol.
...That was a lot. But to put it concisely, I'm almost certain The Incident™ involved Viper losing her family directly at the hands of Omega Earth or its agents somehow, that Sage was involved in the aftermath, and that this all happened BEFORE the assassination attempt. Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk lmao.

A small loving essay about Fem Buck/Eddie fan fiction
I love WLW Buck/Eddie(9-1-1) fan fiction. I've never been in a fandom where reading a gender swap comes with a disclaimer, but I chuckle every time I see one with the following warning.
'If Eddie and Buck were women, they'd be treated much differently in universe, and be different people on screen. Please ignore that and enjoy.'
The truth of it is that these authors are 100% CORRECT and I wanted to just sit with the idea and think about how much of this show would change if genders were swapped, given what we know about Buck and Eddie post S8.
PLEASE comment your thoughts and your own head canons down below! I'd LOVE to make this a conversation in the tags/weblogs/comments :) PLEASE disagree with me even!
9-1-1 is likely the most grounded fandom I've been in-in actual ages. Seeing how gender roles, especially religion and internalized pressures from broader society, impacts these characters has been delightful. For AO3 authors, the challenge is determining what parts of their backstories to keep without making things...really fucking sad, considering the differences in how men and women's actions get perceived.
Let's look at Buck and Eddie and what I find interesting when you write them as gender swapped form S1ep1 starting with the character who didn't pop up until S2:
Eddie Diaz
In the show Eddie centers his entire self-worth in being the provider. He can't be sweet and nurturing, not at first, but he can do what he can to give his family the best life possible. Sacrificed his early twenties to the military, who left home to provide a better life for Chris. His role to the family is that almost of a wallet, up until he comes home and opens up with Chris to be a better dad.
If Eddie Diaz were written as a woman from the start, who went into the military as soon as she was healed from the pregnancy, she'd be seen a mother who 'abandoned her family'. Her renlisting would be seen as selfish from the get go, versus now where the show can't decide if it was selfish for Eddie to leave or not. (Personal opinion of the author: Eddie leaving was due to his discomfort and inability to view himself as a good parent, so him being gone was the best that he could have done for his family. Again, who knows what that would look like if Eddie were a woman)
This is not taking into account how the Diaz' parents would treat her after 'failing' to be a good mother.
If we assume the teachings of what Eddie's church taught him growinng up, as a man, him leaving for war is still doing what is best for his family, in the church. If Eddie did this as a woman, almost from the moment we meet her in S2 she has failed that expectation to be a good mom. Which is insane, considering how Eddie's guilt in being a provider is still one of the few consistent story arcs this show still gives him(#giveEddieAnInternalArcS9). If Eddie were a catholic woman, it would be broken and struggling from the get-go.
You can argue a Fem!Eddie would not go into the army. That Fem!Eddie would stay home, but if we do that, I can not see how that Eddie and Show Eddie would be similar at all. The truth of that is, if a female Eddie followed the teachings and expectations of her surroundings the way show Eddie did, she would have never left El Paso.
The Shannon of it all: Most wlw Buddie fic write Male!Shannon as having career goals, who stays home with young Chris, how would that change the Shannon/Eddie dynamic? Moving a bit further into the timeline, post-Shannon death, instead of entering the dating scene as a 'responsible single dad' she'd be a single mother who gave birth to her child. From what I remember from past seasons, Eddie in the show usually waited a while for his partners to meet Chris, often hinging his relationship over if Eddie thought Chris would like them. But we never got the sense it was out of fearing for Chris' safety. Compare that to what it would be like for a fem!Eddie, who has a kid at home to bring home a man. How would her career as a firefighter be seen socially with her being a single mother?
Gay??? As for the 'Gay!Eddie' of it all, there's still the catholic guilt, but who knows how fem!Eddie's relationship with the church would be after everything surrounding Shannon. On top of that, affection is common between two women, especially close friends. I've read fic where Fem!Buck and Eddie get together quickly after meeting but SOOOO many of Buddie's more affectionate/touchy scenes could be generalized to 'well women just do that for each other' (cough cough shoulder touching scene cough cough). I go into this more at the very end, but making them women doesn't actually fix the things that are making them not view the other as an option.
Society: Eddie Diaz goes from strong war hero with a child, who can't give Chris another mom. Into an 'irresponsible' woman who left her child, who now goes into a dangerous field every day. Who is destroying her body and failing to find a stable male figure in her son's life. Shannon expressed some guilt over being responsible for Chris' disability, and I don't think it's unrealistic to also see Eddie also feel those feelings.
His personality: in canon Eddie closed off, parental, cautious but silly- if flipped and Eddie were a woman? This same behavior would likely be translated as 'bitchy'(speaking from experience here). I blame his canon rush to anger as being a man encourages many to not learn to emotionally regulate. Anger is an easy emotion that hides what the real problem is. Who knows how THAT would translate across gender presentation- that's honestly up to author discussion. Eddie's swapped personality is my favorite part of these fics TBH.
This weird limbo of what Eddie's true personality is also comes from the writers not giving this man a stable personality in years. We the audience haven't seen the inside of this man's thoughts since maybe the sniper. S8 failed to give Eddie's Texas arc any actual development that pushed him forward. The writers could have talked about the expecations of being a dad, or how Catholicism impacted him, or what it meant to go to a regressive town after living in LA. Or Shannon, or anything else really. I really love that after a season of making Eddie look at what he wanted in life, he wasn't the person who made the final decision to come back to LA. Great writing on that y'all. Totally doesn't make S7B-> S8B pointless for Eddie's arc. Especially since his grief over Shannon hasn't been fully explored...
ANYWAY enough of Eddie Diaz. Lets go to Buck.
Buck
Traditional Masculinity: Very early on in the show, set up in S1 is that Buck isn't a fuck boy who will do anything to just have sex. He admits his ''womanizing'' phase was him desperately seeking attention and affection in any way he could. He's the big strong firefighter who picks up chicks on the side.
The plus side of Buck being a firefighter, is that his job encourages him to be big, masculine and strong. I never get the sense that he bulked up to get women, only that being strong allows him to become a better firefighter, which in the end, is a major life goal for him. This mentality would also translate to if Buck were a woman. But the social consequences wouldn't be the same.
Physicality: Her bulk, instead of being something that makes Buck conventionally attractive, would be something against convention. I'm not saying it wouldn't be hot(TRUST ME I'm really not), but I am saying fem!Buck would still probably aim for a stronger, bulky build to overcompensate for not being 'enough' of a fireman. I've seen 50/50 in the fanart sphere on if Eddie and Buck are visibly muscled, irl not all women who work in the fire service aren't necessarily visibly yolked out, but I love to see it, so I thought I'd throw it in. Buck literally had an expensive system set up to test his body fat, I can 100% see Fem!Buck work hard as shit to keep up with and surpass her male coworkers.
The Sex of it all: Buck's 1.0 days, instead of being seen as a sign of overcompensating youth, would be her being a ''''slut''''. As much as canon Buck talks down his Buck 1.0 days, would there be more judgment in and out of show universe if Buck were a woman?
Also, would Buck still date the same type of people if he were a woman? Show Buck tends to date strong personalities who know what they want in life. He seeks out the stability he wants in his relationships, with the goal of having a future with these people.
Fem!Buck might have a harder time doing this, given that she would be a single woman, in a male dominated field where she is surrounded by big and overbearing personalities 24/7. Dating men her age means finding mature men ready to find a forever partner in their late 20s and early 30s. Add to that, if she wants to date outside of first responders, she would likely be stronger than a lot of the men she's dating.
This could cause insecurity in her partners, further narrow her dating pool, and on top of Buck's habit of clinging? Oh yeah, the universe would not be kind to her.
Bi??? As for sexuality, in the show Buck finds out he likes men when he's kissed by one. He grew up in the pre Glee world, and was surrounded by the idea of being into men as 'not normal'(yeah, it's not canon, but he's a millenial and the world still sucked when Buck had impressionable views on sexuality. Just because he came out in a post Glee world didn't mean he wasn't affected by it). In the show, it seems like he just never thought about it. I can see Fem!Buck as just...also not thinking about it. That or she finding out a lot sooner due to female friendships being SO close and touchy. Modern views of fluidity in sexuality is generally more accepted in women than in men, so either way you lean, I agree.
We already had 2 Fem!Bucks parallels? Funnily enough, we already know how the show would write and treat a female Buck. Lena Bosko and Lucy Donato were already written as a fem!Buck parallels. Lucy Donato and a lot of the 'fun' aspects of Buck's risky behaviors become a bit less fun when it's a new woman who is doing it.
A lot of the fun goofball traits seem just a bit less endearing on an underdeveloped character like Lucy and Lena. This idea is what inpired me to write all this. It made me wonder if Buck would still come off just as likeable if Buck had always been gender swapped.
Small tangent: The funny thing is, I can't really see a woman in the show who parallels Eddie? Maybe you could spin Lena into an Eddie mirror, but I still say her willingness to call out Eddie, and her literally taking Buck's spot, makes them too similar to label her as an Eddie mirror. Also, Buck made out with a mirror of himself, which caused him to break up from a relationship where they were each too motivated by their own goals to move forward in the relationship. Yeah, I hate it, Taylor deserved a better boyfriend, and they should have just stayed friends but it is funny.
Buck's ADHD: (This section talks about my own experiences being a woman with ADHD so skip if you find me getting off point). As a woman I experience the same inattentiveness, hyperactivity, fidgiting, poor planning, distractability, low self esteme, excessive talking, and hyperfixation as Buck. Generally, I am criticized more than my family of men who have the same symptoms. People are more likely to call me out, judge me, or belittle my thoughts and opinions because I tend to act more erratically. I am never given benefit of the doubt, people assume I don't get jokes or can't understand complex thought because of this. Going back to my previous point, a lot of Buck's goofball traits would not be viewed as kindly for Fem!Buck. If current Buck is seen like a well meaning idiot who grows into a man with seemingly better managed symptoms, Fem!Buck 'Bimbo Blonde' would not be treated well, and would not be given the same amount of grace as she matured.
Family: The one trait where things might be better for Fem!Buck is how her relationship with Christopher would be a bit more 'normal' from an outsiders' perspective. Generally, a lot of single men don't step up to help their friends take care of their kid. Today, it's weird for a man to genuinely enjoy being around kids, this is why Eddie sees Buck as being special from the earthquake on.
While canon Buck shows how loyal and responsible he is by stepping up, thanks to gender roles, it would almost be expected for Fem!Buck to help out and be amazing with Chris. Is it shitty? Absolutely. But from an outsider's perspective, their family unit of 'parent+kid+friend' matches closer with female friendships than male friendships. While being a highlight of Buck's personality, his want to keep a family. I wonder if these scenes were shot in the exact same way, would that same devotion come through on screen with a Fem!Buck?
There's also the downside of Buck's want of a family being a seemingly 'femanine' trait in society. Buck and Eddie, as portrayed in the show, parent in similiar yet differnet ways. Unlike Eddie, Buck loves being a parent in the ways of connecting, communicating, and teaching Chris. Buck is Chris' guardian about the little things in life. We see it how Buck throws himself into tasks to spend time and further Chris' love in the world around them. While Eddie, being a single dad, has to be the emotional rock, Buck is always there to help in the parts of parenthood Eddie struggles in.
The reason why show Buck's relationship is so amazing, and such a highlight of his character, is partially thanks to how subversive it is.
It would just be another traditional expectation Fem!Buck might want to live up to. Another goal to throwherself at, and while Fem!Buck would absolutely succeed in the exact same way show Buck does, would it still be seen as one of the highlights of Buck's personality? Instead of a man willing to be emotionally vulnerable for a kid- it's a woman being a second mom. Where this vulnerability would be expected.
I can 100% see Fem!Buck picking the first guy who seems stable enough to give her the family she always wanted growing up, having a quick wedding, and over years of a bad marriage realize that she was never happy, and now she's stuck to raise a kid alone...(Canon Eddie Diaz has entered the chat)
THE BUDDIE OF IT ALL
In my personal opinion: Swapping genders wouldn't immediately make either of them get their heads out of their asses and see whats in front of them. A big part of fanon writing centers around Eddie finally seeing Buck's devotion to his family and realizing he needs Buck to stay as a foundational part of their family. Of Eddie realizing what makes him happy, and that is with Buck. This would not change at all with Fem!Eddie, only that what Buck is doing would be slightly less 'special', since Buck is a woman who loves being around kids.
For fem!Buck, being a woman wouldn't magically make her see the family she has with Eddie as the family that is hers. That she could have a greater part in it, than she has already been given.
They'd be stuck in the same rut of expectations, shitty relationships to fill the void, trying to find stablility where it doesn't exist.
What to you think? What headcanons do you have? How similar would Male!Eddie and Fem!Eddie be personality wise? Would Fem!Eddie somehow have a worse dating history? How would Buck's sexuality and view of his world impact how other people on the 118 treat them? Would Buck and Eddie be even worse as to female presenting people? How many times would they have to sleep in eachothers laps before the 118 says anything? LET ME KNOW!!

Hey. Your blog just popped up on my feed and since I'm going through a strong QaF obsession fase right now (rewatching, podcast, fanfiction, the whole ordeal...), I thought I'd drop my 2cents on this whole Micheal/Brian debacle happening here. I would have literally thrown myself out of a window if there had been any chance in hell that Brian harbored any romantic feelings for Micheal. Lol sorry, I'm being a little dramatic, but even if britin weren't my OTP, I'd still have the same opinion. Micheal and Brian do not match in any way. They are even not on same level, to quote Randy Harrison "Brian treats Micheal like a child and Justin like an equal". When they fight in S1 Brian says to Mel "what did we even have in common" and he's right. They share nothing. The only reason why they are friends is that they've know each other for so long and Brian anchored himself to Micheal because of his lack of selfworth. I swear I'n not shitting on their relationship, this whole spiel was just to say that they are family, because familial love is not conditional on common ground, it's just there.
Plus even if it weren't the case: Micheal whorships the ground Brian walks on, tends to his every whim and has him in this little box, never challenging him to not be a shit because "That's just my BEST friend Brian, you don't know him like I do". Why should Brian be in love with that. It's lame. Justin matches Brian step for step (I know that there's an imbalnce there, but that's not what this is about) and is always daring him to be more and do more. I love them. Sorry not sorry :)
Sorry to you for dumping all this here. I always get too carried away. I hope I made sense. Have a great day!
Hello anon!
I share the same sentiments as well! Even the qaf obsession phase, we've all been there, i mean im still here arent i? 😆
Like i said on my other post, Brian being in love with Michael does nothing to their characters, and it would be a bit lazy on the writers part if that was the case.
I like Michael at 1st but his "he's my best friend!" became annoying real fast. And yes, he always kept Brian on a box even until the last episode, Justin gave Brian the freedom to be himself, but when Brian proposed became a caricature of a "perfect partner" that he thought Justin wanted, but Justin love him as is, he didnt want Brian to change for him, instead he wanted Brian to change, if he ever wanted to, for himself.
While Michael forcefully wanted Brian to change for him to fit in his new stepford lifestyle.
I think it was Gale (or was it Cowlip?) who said Brian saw Debbie as a surrogate mom so its one of the reason why he needed Michael. I also dont like how Debbie blames Brian for Michaels choices in life, and in Brian's words "he is old enough to make his own mistakes".
Feel free to dump rant on my ask or message me whenever you want!

I'm considering the idea of a yandere cheater in spiderverse. All after reading your Miles G, I confess. Miguel was the first wave, but Hobie and Miles G, hit like a tsunami behind.
I don't ask you to write it. Just babbling about my favs... although there's also Aaron, Peter B, Noir,... I love everyone.
But, but in your yandere expert opinion, who would have the toughest nerve to become a cheater and on top of that, being a yandere about reader? From all the charas into and across the spiderverse.
ALSO, WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE, KINDA FUCK, MARRY, KILL???, Tell me, tell me *googly eyes*
In my "expert" Yandere knowledge (jk 🤣jk🤣) I'd say that 90% of the Spiderverse cast could be "cheater" if they couldn't physically be with the reader. Or if they thought that they don't deserve the reader.
1610-Miles: would never cheat, he'd just sit around mopping and dreaming about the reader. He'd also never really think about not "deserving" the reader. He's a really lonely boy and would latch onto his crush no matter what. He'd also fully believe that he was a better match for them than anyone else. He's also confident enough that he's sure he could protect them against anything.
Pavitr Prabhakar: Would also never cheat. When he's in love he becomes devoted to said person and would do anything for them. Cares for them too much to ever be with anyone else. Also if that person is in love with someone else then he would respect their choice and bottle up his emotions. Laching onto the hope that one day the reader would realize they love him more than their current partner. He's practically the walking embodiment of "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift.
Gwen Stacy: Gwen might cheat on the reader if she's trying to distance herself from them. Make them hate her so they leave. But really it's just to protect them, she's fully convinced that she's cursed. Anyone who get's too close to her ends up hurt. So she'll make them leave. Also if her lover is in another dimension then she might go for a relationship in her own dimension just to distract herself from them.
Hobie Brown: Wouldn't mean to cheat. But he might get tempted into having an affair. Nothing serious just something casual. But he tries to keep it a secret from his one true love. Also if Hobie did end up kidnapping the reader and locking them up somewhere then he may have another relationship with someone else. But that person is like a substitute for the reader. He pretends that they are her and that He and the reader are a real couple, but it's actually the other person. Until he can trust the reader enough to take them outside. Does this make sense? I feel like it doesn't make sense.
42- Miles: Will have some causal flings here and there to get their mind off the reader. But also watches them through their window each night. Like he's obsessed but too prideful to fully admit it. If he does kidnap the reader and sees that she's being incompliant. He'll try to make her jealous by going out on cute dates with some other girl. Then showing her pictures. Show her how easily replaceable she is. He'll obviously break her mind until she's begging him not to go out, not to leave her alone. Why is it that every time I write anything for this guy it gets real dark, real quick?
Miguel O'Hara: YES!! THIS MAN IS NOT EMOTIONALLY STABLE. Like he might just make an AI of his lover, talk to her, program her to love him, and convince himself that this is his real lover. If his lover is in another dimension then maybe he'll date someone with certain similar characteristics to her but then kinda get distracted by his duties. He'll just go back lovingly looking at them through a screen.
Peter B: He might get drunk and cheat by accident. But I think that's more something he would have done in the first movie. If the reader is MayDay's mother then no way he's cheating.
Spider Noir: He's too old-fashioned to cheat. He'll treat his lover like a princess. I can't really see him doing anything like that.
Aaron: He might cheat on the reader if he loves her enough. Like his life as the Prowler is dangerous, he knows this. So he'll distract himself with other people as apposed to getting mixed up with the reader and risking their life.
As for me: (I'll do kiss, marry, kill)
MARRY: MIGUEL O'HARA. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN. He means everything to me😍😍. I just want to be his cute little housewife. Someone he can look forward to coming home to. Plus I'd also try to help him out with his whole Spiderman thing.
KISS: MILES G MORALES (prowler miles) I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!! He also gives me lowkey season 4 Eren vibes from AOT lol.
Kill:... Honestly no one. I love everyone so much. Like maybe Miguel so no one can have him but me. But like also Miles G, so you know, no one can have him but me. 😂😂 sorry about that went full yandere for a moment.

Ykw i’m curious now… what are YOUR thoughts on genomare -> errormare……. bats my eyelashes with sparkles in my eyes
Oh boy where do I begin
I'll put this under one of those silly lines (Sorry for my delay on getting to this ask!!! I've been hanging out with my partner while he was here in town)
So I have various different opinions depending on the way Geno/Error and Nightmare are written out. My personal way that I typically write/draw Errormare usually has the story of Genomare previously. (I started typing this around 8 AM)
THIS AND DOWN IS MY TAKE ON GENOMARE/ERRORMARE AND HOW I WRITE THEM. Part of it is me projecting my issues, please don't come after me, I've already have had people come after me because they thought I romanticize this sort of stuff when I don't </3
Geno and Nightmare started dating (to Nightmare he says it was hundreds of years ago) a few months in I'd say into the relationship Geno began to experiment with determination (which would eventually lead to everything) and Nightmare advised him not to mess with that stuff.
I'd like to imagine Geno and Nightmare's relationship wasn't the constant cycle of hanging out. They met, had interest in each other but it wasn't one of those relationships where you talked every day (I'm projecting here)
So Nightmare one day when going to check on Geno realizes he isn't there anymore, begins searching around until probably seeing a little syringe that had a little bit of determination left in it. (This is going off of how I was told/remember how Geno got himself into the Anti Void)
Nightmare uncertain exactly what to do as he doesn't feel Geno's negativity source (I'd imagine Nightmare was around 20-40 when dating Geno, because of that he hasn't exactly understood 100% of his negativity so he can't pinpoint where Geno is. He's over 500 when he is with Error because timelines passage of time is different in my opinion.) Because of this, while he doesn't exactly give up he continues to try and search for Geno.
After some time (I don't know how much time) Nightmare ends up sensing a sudden spike of negativity in a place he's never been to. Due to being the guardian of negativity and Prince (my silly headcanon) of negativity at the time he goes to check it out to see what it was about, now this can go one of two different ways
Error could be there, crashed on the floor (I don't know if he would crash during/near the beginning of having became Error) and Nightmare goes over to inspect, seeing the red glasses and realizing who he is
Nightmare simply watches from a distance (this made me think of Dream seeing Cross and Nightmare in Underverse) and while he wouldn't exactly realize who Error is, he'd just watch him from a distance like a creep
To this I feel like would be Nightmare's reason to stop looking for Geno. He wouldn't go up to Error and go "Hey, you're my boyfriend and you did all this stuff, go back to that." He'd just accept it and move on while watching him from a distance.
NOW GOING ONTO ERRORMARE (Put cheering audio here)
I like to imagine that Error and Nightmare's actual first proper meeting was in Underfell. Be it Error trying to steal chocolate, trying to destroy the place, that is where they first met. Nightmare went there because Underfell is one of his primary sources of negativity so Error being there to Nightmare was not a good thing as he was uncertain what he'd do to the universe. Nightmare introduces himself to Error as the Guardian and Prince of Negativity, Error only introduces himself as well, Error. After they talk back and forth they become acquainted, Nightmare considering Error as a completely different person, not treating him as if he is Geno. Nightmare requests that Error leaves Underfell alone if he had plans on doing anything with it, he is free to steal but not destroy as Nightmare considers Underfell "his territory." Error decides to respect this and leaves the universe be.
Throughout I'd say a year Nightmare and Error continue to "accidentally" bump into each other. (I like to think they would on occasion purposefully look for each other and act like they weren't.) which due to these totally accidental bumps they end up speaking more which leads to their relationship.
Now you can leave it there obviously but I typically refer to Error and Nightmare as divorced husbands, which leads to more story LOL
Later into their relationship, Nightmare's negativity is developing more and becoming more where Underfell cannot be his only source of negativity. So he begins to push aside his relationships, any interaction with people, literally every social thing INCLUDING Error to focus on getting enough negativity to feel safe enough to not have to go off and search for sources of negativity every other day.
Because of this it causes poor communication (projecting here). Error doesn't understand why Nightmare is distancing himself and Nightmare hasn't told Error on why he needs this much negativity (I headcanon that Nightmare needs a certain amount of negativity to function and live properly. If it gets to low he can probably die). When things get too far, it ends up leading to an argument between the two when they see each other next.
(Credit to @\lovestuckstarz for the argument idea) Said argument leads to Error end up storming off, leaving the argument unresolved and leaving Nightmare in the Anti Void (where they argued.)
Error probably stormed off to Outertale while with Nightmare you can take him doing multiple different things.
Nightmare could have waited for a few hours to a day or two in the Anti Void or going back and forth between wherever and there to see if Error came back to talk to him
He left not long after Error left to focus on keeping himself alive.
Either way, the two of them don't end up resolving that whole argument for who knows how long (I like to say that Nightmare says it's been hundreds of years due to timeline stuff and Error just goes along with it and says it's been hundreds of years as well despite being uncertain how long it has actually been.)
At some point they end up getting back together despite it being "hundreds" of years later.
ANYWAY, THAT'S MY TAKE ON MY OWN PERSONAL GENOMARE > ERRORMARE, sorry for the rant, heh.. (Please don't get after me for my opinions, this goes for literally anyone LOL)
To me it heavily depends on who is writing/drawing Genomare > Errormare. I do not believe Nightmare would tell Error that he's Geno unless it is written as a toxic relationship.
I could say the same for Afterdeath > Destructivedeath (I unfortunately though do not like Destructivedeath, I have don't like many ships unfortunately… </3) I don't think Reaper would try to get Error to be Geno again or do all that stuff. He might remind him of who Geno was in hopes of Error remembering any of that stuff but just accepts the fact that Error is y'know, Error and not Geno
Anyway.. that's my rant.. if you have more questions just ask 🙂↕️(I couldn't find a nod emoji) I'm finishing this at 11:56 AM...

Can I offer some angst?
Late one night Hot Rod wakes up after a nightmare which also startles Soundwave awake. Snuggling closer to his conjunx Hot Rod slowly starts to calm down and explain what the nightmare was about.
When Hot Rod was still a young sparkling his carrier Perceptor had started to date a co-worker. One day he invited them over to eat dinner and meet Roddy for the first time, things went well at first considering it wasn't very long after Percy had divorced his former conjunx. However after some time his carrier's new partner started treating Hot Rod harshly, saying awful things when his carrier wasn't around or even daring to raise a servo at him. Claiming that he was just in the way of their happiness.
One day when Perceptor was at work the co-worker took Hot Rod at a small park at the edge of town. At first things were fine, no yelling or screaming just fun. But as the hours passed and the sun started to set Hot Rod quickly realised that his caarrier's partner was no were in sight, leaving the young sparkling to fend for himself. Roddy tried to remember the way home despite not being able to fully read the street names, stumbling down the crowded streets the sparkling found help in the paws of a small pack of turbo foxes who were resting in an allay. The foxes kept him warm and safe, they even shared their food with him while a scout went out to look for his carrier. An hour later Perceptor found him with tears running down his face and energon on his servos. The tangy scent of blood energon will always be burned into his memory but the comforting scent of his carrier always chased away those bad memories.
He woke up with a gasp, nearly falling out of bed. Soundwave was also woken up by the noise and turned on the light. He scanned the room for danger and then turned to him.
"I'm fine."
He tried to dismiss, and Soundwave pulled him into his arms.
"I'm sorry for waking you."
"I don't mind."
Soundwave rubbed his back, and he pressed closer.
"What was the nightmare about."
"When I was a sparkling, my carrier started dating someone."
"Really?"
Soundwave looked at him in surprise because he'd never seen Percy date or even show interest in other people.
"It was shortly after my carrier divorced my sire. He was a coworker of my carriers. At first, things were fine. When my carrier first sat me down, I was happy for him, excited even. I wanted him to be happy, and when I met his boyfriend for the first time, I could tell he makes my carrier happy."
Hot Rod shivered, and he pulled him closer.
"As things became more serious, my carrier started trusting him to watch me. Sometimes he'd be needed at the lab at odd hours. That's when his true colors revealed themselves. He started telling me all these horrible things. He even laid hands on me occasionally. Wanting to punish me for existing. He'd lock me in my bedroom or outside all day or night. Not wanting to deal with me, and would only let me out when my carrier came home. He'd scream at me and wouldn't feed me. He hated me and always told me that I was getting in the way of their happiness and that my existence was running my carriers life."
Hot Rod sobbed, and Soundwave comforted him. His carrier must not have known because he would have never allowed his partner to hurt Hot Rod.
"I tried to be good. I tried so hard. I thought it was my fault and that my carrier hated me. I thought I was running his life, and if I said anything, I'd only ruin it further."
"No, Hot Rod, that's not true at all."
"I know that's just what he wanted me to believe."
Soundwave kissed him, and Hot Rod continued.
"One day, he took me to a park across town. I thought I'd been good and that he no longer hated me. He didn't scream or try to hurt me; instead, I had fun. When it started to get dark, I went to find him and couldn't find him anywhere. I was so scared, and I tried to find my way home. However, I couldn't remember the way and I got lost. I remember crying when a pack of turbofoxes found me. They took me back to their den, and we snuggled for warmth. They even gave me some of their food."
"I'm sure Perceptor wasn't happy when he found out."
"He eventually found me. I remember tears were running down his face, and he had blood on him. It smelled gross, but I was so happy to see my carrier. I ran into his arms and cried. I never saw that coworker again, and my carrier told me he was gone and was never coming back. At first, I was upset thinking I ruined things for my carrier; however, he quickly reassured me that it wasn't my fault."
Listening to his story, he thought back to the first time he met Perceptor. He'd been terrifying at the time, but now he realized why he was so protective of Hot Rod. He wanted to make sure I wouldn't hurt him like his partner had.

I'm hopefully not late, but today I figured I'd post day one of @arianimates toxicchaintober! The prompt being Peach!
Wait, but that isn't all! I wish to write an excerpt from this interaction, as I feel it would kick off day one! So with that....
READ UNDER THE CUT
"Sentret's down for the count! That means Millie made you eat dirt, Kiki!"
Carmine's voice rung in the air, her doing a little victorious hop. Kieran reluctantly withdrew his pokémon, a blush of embarrassment on his face.
"Aw man...and I really wanted to show off..." He muttered to himself. No doubt in his mind he was going to lose to Millie, the outstanding Champion of Paldea.
"Why did I even think a battle was a good idea...?" As his ungloved hand pressed against one of his heated cheeks, Millie was headed his way, a smile plastered on her face.
"That was amazing, Kieran!" She lifted out her hand, going to touch him on the shoulder. Kieran hesitated, before letting her do so. She carefully placed a hand on his shoulder, a shudder running down his spine.
'Wow...to think I'm getting a compliment from her...I feel so much motivation...' He thought.
"...Kieran?" Millie called his name again. Had he not responded?! He shook his head, looking up at her.
"S-Sorry, ma'am-!"
As he looked deeply apologetic, Millie chuckled. "Hey, you don't have to treat me so formally. I'm here on a vacation, and Wanna get to know about you and your sister's culture from a personal perspective." Her voice came out in an odd twang that sounded vaguely similar to his. As she spoke, his eyes widened.
She wanted to get to know more about me?
Millie continued, taking her hand off of his shoulder.
"That being said, just treat me like I'm your next-door neighbor!" She waved her hand as she explained her ideal way of wanting to be viewed, Kieran simply blinking.
"O-Okay...!"
They really had a long way to go...
As the two of them stood there, Carmine raced up to them. "Kiki! Stop looking goo-goo eyed at our new guest and get to work! Your battling probably just took up a good bit of the research time you and her both have!"
As her words snapped into his mind, he felt a flicker of irritation that stung in his chest. Even still, it felt like the words stuck in his throat, making it hard for him to voice his discomfort with his sister.
Millie waved her hands in dismissing "Hey, he's fine. I really didn't mind the battle. Plus, I plan on stopping by that shop over there, so I'm probably really adding onto our limited-time."
Millie's words of dismissal made Kieran's heart palpitate.
She was defending me...?
A sense of understanding and comfort ran over him, something he never really felt before. Already, he felt like he could share anything and everything with the Paldean Champion. She was so kind...so considerate; nothing like his annoying sister who liked to humiliate him all the time.
As he stared deep into her, he just kind've stood there awkwardly, not really knowing his mannerisms were very abnormal. He looked over every detail...her hair, her eyes, her clothes...as if trying to retain every single detail.
"Wowzers...." He murmured in adoration for his new "friend". "I wanna be just like her someday..."
Carmine had noticed his awkward silence once again, groaning.
"Geez, Kiki! You're utterly hopeless. Pairing you up with Millie feels like a bad idea now-"
Before she could finish the sentence, he suddenly blurted out "No!"
This surprised both Millie and Carmine, the two girls staring at him in surprise. He realized what he had done, his whole body now feeling hot as he rubbed his neck.
"I m-mean...please don't." He replied to his outburst. Stupid, stupid! How could you make yourself look like an idiot like that in front of Millie-?!
Millie shook her head, laughing softly. "Again, I'm sure little dude'll be fine with me. How about this: you go ahead and go find your partner, and I and Kieran will do our own thing." She suggests, Carmine looking reluctant at first but shrugging.
"Okayyyy, but don't do anything stupid! I have my eyes on both of you, by the way." Her voice was very accusatory, mostly directed at Kieran.
"Don't make me regret this decision, toodalooo!" As she gave one last glare to Kieran, whom seemed to quietly return it, she turned, jogging off. Kieran let out a hefty sigh, Millie picking up on it.
"Hey...she's only actin' this way because she cares for you, don't beat yourself up about it." Her voice was very soft, very reassuring. Kieran's irritation faded quickly, turning into a small smile."You really think so? She's always so...so annoyin'. It's like anything I do and she's breathin' down my neck or nagging at me!"
He chews on his lip, remembering all the insults or complaints his sister had about him. Millie seemed to laugh it off, not in a disrespectful manner, as she looked down at him.
"I'm sure she has her own ways of dealing with it. I mean, especially at your age, there's a lot of things she's bound to worry about. It's going to be annoying, but it's not the end of the world." As she explains this to him, it's like it opened his eyes. Maybe Carmine wasn't trying to actually be annoying, but maybe she really was just trying to help, even if it was an irritating way to go about it...
He didn't know how to respond at first, being immediately opened up to a viewpoint that was obvious. "Thank you, Millie. I never really saw it like that..." He felt sheepish—how was he so ignorant compared to Millie? She seemed so wise...Wait, of course she was, she was a Champion, for goodness sake! This made him curious and, before he could stop himself, he let the words tumble out.
"Millie...you just met me and my sis, but it seems like you've known us for moons. How are you able to know what Carmine is feeling?" He asked, Millie furrowing her brows at the question.
"I wouldn't say I 'know' what your sister feels. I'm simply putting it in my shoes and what I've observed. I mean, she's still a girl who lives in the country, and as far as I know, she's probably the most responsible out of the both of you." She looked in the direction Carmine ran off to, seeing her just vaguely converse with her teammate. Carmine looked up from the conversation, her eyes landing on Millie's with a glare. Millie inhaled sharply, looking back down at Kieran.
"I mean...I could be responsible!" Kieran replied "She just never lets me! She's always hovering over me an' making sure I don't do anything stupid..." He felt bad, airing out his dirty laundry about his sister so early, but at the same time, it felt good to get this frustration off his chest. Because of their reputation of being "troublemakers" in Mossui Town, he never really talked to the other kids, who were even younger than him. Millie crossed her arms, grimacing.
"Well, Kieran," she starts "It's not that you're not responsible. I would say that, her duty as an older sister, is to protect you. I'll also point out that with your current party, you wouldn't stand a chance." She was a bit blunt, causing an ache in Kieran's chest. Millie noticed his look of disappointment right away, her eyes widening slightly.
"That doesn't mean you're a failure or you're inherently weak, okay?"
As she stood there, looking apologetic, his feeling of rejection suddenly turned into one of desperation. Without thinking, he grabbed onto her jacket, tugging at it.
"M-Millie..." He shakily spoke "You're really good at battlin' right?" He asked, Millie feeling his hand tremble through thr fabric of her jacket. She wasn't at all surprised by the touch.
"I wouldn't say I'm the greatest in the world..." She responds. Kieran tightens his grip on the fabric. That was nonsense! She went and beat both he AND Carmine, who was the strongest person he'd known before her. Millie tilts her head.
"Why, what's up?"
Without missing a beat, the words stumble out of his mouth
"D'you...d'you think you could teach me to battle???" His eyes looked up at her pleadingly. His heart was pounding so fast— he had never been so forward with someone that wasn't his family! Millie stared at him for a few moments, the question half-surprising her. For such an anxious kid, he sure did have guts. Millie smiled.
"Maybe...I'll have to think about it. In the meantime, why don't we head over to that store?" She thumbed over to the store near Mossui's riverbank, his eyes following in that direction.
"Peachy's?" He questions. "I mean, I guess. The lady there has always run it since I was real little, sometimes even through the night. I dunno why, but that place always gave me the heebie-jeebies."
Millie frowned "Well, we don't have to go there, then-"
Kieran immediately stopped her, waving his hands like crazy. "Nono, you're a guest, right? We can go if you want to!" He smiled nervously, mentally kicking himself for showing any vulnerability. Millie, confused, just nodded.
"Alrighty."
They both headed over to the shop, the old woman running the stand greeting them.
"Welcome, welcome! Please, feel free to look or buy, if you please! For half the price, I also will sell my hand-made trainer gloves!" Her voice croaked gently, Millie dipping her head in a greeting. As Kieran made his way up to the shop, the old lady beamed.
"Ahh, if it isn't the youngest of the Kitakami siblings!" She continued. "I see you have already made a friend with one of the transfers?" This made Kieran's face go hot again. He didn't know how to respond at first, friendship kinda being a big deal to him.
"Well u-uh..m...I mean, if y-you put it that way I-"
The lady simply laughed,
"Oh ho ho! No need to be so shy, dearie. I didn't ask if she was your girlfriend."
Millie visibly tensed at this "No, I wouldn't even dream of it, ma'am." Millie wasn't used to comments like that, even if they were harmless in nature. She looked pver at Kieran, who looked like he was a few seconds away from fainting. She shook him, causing him to look away from her.
The old lady noticed this and tisked "My, I didn't mean to cause you both a fright there. I do apologize if it came off the wrong way." She genuinely looked sincere, realizing she probably got carried away at her age. Millie shook her head "No ma'am, it's okay! You were just making conversation."
That made Millie come to a realization that yeah, times were really different, and she already had someone. Even still, Kieran was way too young, and emotionally immature. She would never admit that to the kid, though.
The old woman nodded, ending the awkward conversation. Millie turned to Kieran again, who was still looking away from her. Internally, the little dude was freaking out. How was he supposed to reply or react???
As he was stiff as a board, Millie spoke to him.
"Hey, lil' squirt," She tried to get his attention, using a more emdearing nickname. He came to, looking up at her with moony eyes.
"Is there anything you want from here, like a snack?" She asked. Kieran blinked twice, still trying to process the situation.
She wanted to buy a snack for him?
"Uhh-" His mind was racing, eyes flickering between the products on the shelves. He came here sometimes, but never really brought from the place since his grandparents always made snacks at home. Now he was put to the test of choosing something he wanted.
Millie waited for a few moments, slightly amused by how much he was having to grow up without his sister. A few moments passed and he slightly poked at the weird purple peach-thing that was sitting on a pillow.
"What about that?" He asked shakily. The old lady laughed once again.
"That's not to eat, silly boy! That's an antique from my store! That's an old antique that was passed down to me!" As she explained, he looked confused.
"If it isn't for buying, why display it?"
"It's to add onto the rustic atmosphere of my shop, I suppose. Besides, I wouldn't want such a precious antique collecting dust. It could mean something one day."
The old lady's words struck Kieran's curiosity.
"Mean somethin...?" He asked to himself softly. As he kept observing and prodding at the antique, Millie wasn't paying much attention to the conversation, already looking for something for herself. She finally finds something she wants, pointing at it.
"May I have a pecha berry or two, ma'am?" She asks. The old lady smiled
"Why, certainly! That will be 15 PoKé!"
Millie was surprised. That was very cheap compared to the prices she had to pay back at home. As she was exchanging items, Millie looked back over at Kieran, who was still poking and prodding the antique.
"You sure you don't want anything, Kieran?" She asks, catching his attention for just a moment. He looks up at her, his mind elsewhere.
"Huh? Oh yeah no, I'll be fine, ma'am." His words were more direct and polite, his mind shifting back to the weird, purple thing that sat upon the Peachy's outdoot kiosk. As Millie shrugged, she made the payment, putting the berries and other merchandise away, thanking the old lady.
"Alright, lil' squirt! I think that's everything!" She tugged on her bag until it was in the front, putting away the berries.
"And that will be for me, because I need to eat healthier." She mainly meamt that comment to herself, Kieran overhearing it but not processing it. She looks back over at Kieran, snorting.
"C'mon, lil man. We should probably get going before the other teams beat us. I don't want your sister to have my head."
Kieran's attention snapped back to Millie, straightening up before nodding.
"Okay! I'll...follow you from a distance, if that's okay?" He asks, Milloe nodding.
"Sure! As long as we can keep up with one another!"
With that, the two departed from the store, the old woman waving at them.
"Have a good trip, and feel free to stop by at any time!"
As the lady turned away from the outer kiosk, the purple "thing" that lay upon the mattress trembled. It did not utter a word, but as a breeze blew past, a faint whisper could be heard.
"Yes...he is the one...I can feel it..."
"He will be my new vessel. I just need to promise him great power...and beckon him to me...then I can regain my strength..."
"I have finally crossed paths with the child...he will be foolish enough to accept me. My time of power is now..."
