Chapter 7

Lily listened in awe. She couldn’t help but listen aptly as he described his writing process, the studios he frequented, his manager, touring, the food, and the cities. He had always been a storyteller, and Lily was enchanted once again by the man who had now followed his dream and lived it. He paused a few times, the tension between them thick as he spoke of his songs and his writing. She was curled up on his couch when he finished, explaining the end of his last tour and his plea to his manager that he needed a break – for inspiration, he joked forlornly. “You’ve found none, then?” Lily questioned, thanking him when he passed her hot mug from the coffee table.

Continue reading here or below

“I was having some trouble on tour. I was tired most of the time and it was getting…” He looks down into his mug, the creases between his eyebrows forming two lines, “I was just tired, and I wanted to go home.”

She smiles softly at him, “Have you written anything since being home?”

He smiles gently this time, a fond memory hitting her at the sight. The two of them, their last summer together.

“I have. It’s been good, being here. I don’t think I want to tour for a while.”

She frowns this time, “Why not? You said you loved it!”

“I did, but I prefer writing and I’m okay doing that for now.”

She scans his face finding what she hopes is the truth. He’s wearing a familiar navy hoodie; it makes him appear soft and cosy and it ultimately makes her wish they were in a position where she could settle in nicely against his shoulder and lay her head on his chest.

“Lily?”

Her name snaps her out of her wishes and into the present.

“Hmm?”

“I don’t want to leave anytime soon. I don’t want to leave you again. I could barely do it the first time.”

The words cut sharp and sink heavily into her chest.

“Ok," is all she can say.

“Lils, have you listened to any of my songs?”

She blushes now, scorning her Irish blood at how transparent she will come across.

He blushes back, and as she watches the redness of his cheeks go splotchy and the way his lips twitch into a smile, she laughs.

“Of course, I have.”

He smiles openly at her now, “Yeah?”

She rolls her eyes playfully, “Mary likes to turn the volume up when Red comes on the radio…”

He looks up at this, his eyes delightfully bright. He has his classic James Potter smirk shining at her and she has the instinct to shake her head at the sight.

“Too obvious?”

‘Just a tad.” She chuckles, her eyes finding it too hard to look at him straight on. The tension from before has moulded into something familiar – how they used to be.

“I wasn’t allowed to call it Lily. Sirius told me it was too much.”

She laughs loudly now, “Yeah, that would have been a punch to the stomach.”

He groans and pulls a hand through his messy curls. She reaches up and removes it, twining her fingers into his when she pulls his hand away and into her lap.

“I guess I just want to know why you didn’t reach out after you released the songs. You say so much in them but you can’t seem to say them to my face. It made me wonder if it was just for show – for sales.”

James shakes his head instantly, the blotchiness from before gone. He grasps her hands tightly now and angles his body to face hers.

Eyes on hers, he takes a deep breath.

“I’ve always been a coward when it comes to you.”

She screws her nose up and is about to retaliate when he pulls her hands into his lap.

“I have always been terrified of having it all and losing it. I didn’t deserve to have you and my career, not when it was all so new. I just had this feeling, this feeling that I couldn’t start something new with you – something I knew would be real, and not be with you properly and I know you wouldn’t have let me stay. I needed to go and I was terrified that staying in contact with you would make me want to come running home.”

“So you thought ghosting me was the answer?”

He flinches, “No, that wasn’t right and I knew that within days of ignoring your messages, but I just didn’t know how to say the words – god, Lils I still don’t know how to say the words.”

“Try,” She whispers.

“I love you and leaving you after saying that to you was not how I wanted us to start. I knew that talking to you, especially those first few months would have been excruciatingly hard for me. I couldn’t tell if you felt the same then, I mean I knew you felt something but to feel it that strongly, I didn’t want to scare you off. I was a coward for thinking that not speaking to you was the easiest way for both of us to move on.”

“You wanted to move on?” Her voice comes out squeaky.

“I wanted to try living my dream without having you consume my thoughts. I owed it to myself to try my best at being a musician.”

“Oh.”

“It didn’t work, Lils.”

“Oh?”

“You’ve always consumed my thoughts, you always will.”

“But you still didn’t reach out to me?”

“Lily, I arrived home and it took me a day to call you. It took me hours before I organised a time and place in which I could see you. Sirius didn’t even want a party that night. It wasn’t an accident that I bumped into you at the café either. When I visited last summer, I made Mary tell you about that secret Coldplay concert – I even got you the tickets!”

She widens her eyes at that, she thought Mary’s brother got those…

“And I don’t just send you flowers every year for your birthday. I buy you presents too, I was just too much of a coward to send them.”

“James, I don’t want presents.”

He stares at her, his teeth chewing on his lip.

“You keep calling me James…”

She smiles this time, “Potter?”

He rolls his eyes playfully this time, “yeah?”

“I just needed you.”

There's a pregnant pause, as if the two of them are reliving the good days between them in flashes, remembering what it was like, wondering if it could ever be the same again.

James leans forward, an answer evident in the way he looks at her.

“Evans, can I ask you out on a proper date now?”

She should say it’s too soon, she should say they should start over again but the blush appears back on his cheeks, his eyes look innocently wide and his hand pulses in hers.

“Potter, I thought you’d never ask.” She answers, finally resting her head on his shoulder and letting out a tense breath.

Serial Killer

(AU: Miles Yandere over Hobie. I feel like no ever writes Psycho Miles! Like there's evil Hobie, but Miles is never evil or dark. Warning: Yandere dark stuff. Violence. Creepy and weird shit. You been warned.)

"I love, I love, I love, I love you I love, I love, I love, I love you I love, I love, I love, I love you I love, I love, I love, I-"

Miles repeats the beginning of the song over and over again as he stares lovingly at his Smartphone. His eyes gone wide with hearts shapes, his breathing heavies while he kisses the screen of smartphone.

"Mwah! Mwah-Mwah!" Kiss a picture of Hobie, his sweet Hobie. God, he loves this guy so much.

The way his wicks bounces when he remove his Spider-man mask, his big volume lips painted black. Hobie Brown the Spider Punk, his kind gesture and he picked him! Protected him!

When Miles prove himself in front of everyone, his only eyes was set on Hobie.

"Miles, time for bed!" His mom passed by his room to let him know before she went to her room to rest.

"Okay, mami!" He rushes to turn off the lights in his room, then lay on his bed scrolling through his gallery of all zoom in and crop photos of Hobie.

"Hobie. Hobie. Hobie. Hobie. Hobie. Hobie. Hobie. Hobie." He kept saying it over and over again, "My Hobie." He giggles shyly.

"Got something like a poison The way you hit you got me frozen"

Miles happily stalks from afar, spotting Hobie talking to a couple of Spider-heroes. He pulls out his phone to take close up photos of his crush. His beautiful punker looks so handsome today.

"Hey, Brooklyn! What you're doing over there?" Hobie asked out loud spotting the young Spider-man hiding behind a wall.

The teenager jumps in fright, then purposely drop his phone on the ground making his screen cracked. "Eeep!" Pouting at his phone.

"Oh shit, bruv. I didn't mean to startled you." Hobie went over seeing Miles pouting at him. "Oh, luv..." He saw Miles' Smartphone on the floor being cracked. "I didn't mean to..."

"Hmph! You made me drop my phone, Hobie!" If he plays his cards, right. Hobie will surely try to make it up to him. Miles picks his phone up being unhappy. "My dad is gonna kill me. This is a new phone."

Hobie slouches over the him with his arms around Miles' shoulders, "Awe, fuck him. I'm sorry, Sunflower. How about I treat ya lunch? Anyway, how much is those little telly cost?"

"Over a thousand dollars." Miles exaggerated the price of his Smartphone which got Hobie's inky eyes to go wide.

"Bloody hell!" He mutters lowly, "Well, I don't have any money but I can give you something from my room?"

"Oh, really? You might as well give your whole room." Miles pouts at him. Yes! He gets to hang out in his crush's room. "Also..." He buries his nose in Hobie's neck for the moment, "Mmm, have you been around Pav?"

Why was Pav around Hobie? They weren't on missions today?

"Whoa, bruv. You got a pretty sharp nose. Did your cop pops teach you that?" Hobie jokes, but saw the serious look on Miles face.

"Hmph, fine don't tell me. Leave me alone." Miles shoves him away being upset. No one can be around Hobie expect for him.

"I love, I love, I love, I love you (I love, I love, I love, I love you)"

"Here, Miles. Pick whatever you want. I'm sorry about before. I didn't mean to break yer lil telly and make a terrible joke about your dad." Hobie saw the way Miles' eyes lit up.

"OKay! Hmm!" Miles jumps onto of Hobie's bed smelling the glorious scent of cigarettes, dirt and musk.

"Bruv, what are ya doing?" Hobie asked with a chuckle.

"Nothing, just tired." He lies before wrapping himself with the bed sheets, "Hmm, these smell nice or- what are these?" He giggles holding Hobie's cheetah print thong, "I never knew you were wearing this stuff." He wants it, to sniff it, to lick it.

"Eh, it's easier with skinny jeans, Miles." Hobie stood having to smoke his cigarette. "Say... Sunflower, have you ever..." He stop himself seeing the way Miles dig through his things like he knows what he wants... how odd.

"Hmmm, a band shirt? Nah..." He got three of those, two of Hobie's picks and stolen a belly button piercing. Oh he did get Hobie's hair, and battle vest. He wanted those used underwear... but he gotta be sneaky. "Hobie!"

"Yes?"

Miles coughs, "I need some water. You got any?" He sat on the bed waiting having another fake cough.

"Right..." Hobie eyes at him, his Spidey Senses are going a bit off. "Let me go get you some water." He left out the room.

Miles watches him leave, then started to take pictures of items he'll steal later. For now, he saw a big sweater and shove the thong inside the sweater. "Okay, I'll be back later."

"Oi, Miles. I don't have water but a Pop will-" Hobie stops himself seeing Miles happily holding his sweater.

"Never mind, I'm good. I'll see you later!" Miles hums, rushes out of the room to head into a portal to his place.

"You say you hate me in the morning Could take my life without a warning, but"

Miles draws Hobie in every sketchbook, he writes his name over and over. He wore the large sweater, then he would pull out Hobie's thong to sniff it. He could feel him, taste him. His sweet Hobie. It felt like a drug, he needs. Then he went into his closet finding his little shrine of his punker. "Hehehe, oh this? You got it for me, baby. Of course, I'll go out with you." He had a jar of Hobie's finished cigarette buds. Then, he pulls out a crinkle cigarette with black lipstick from the punker left on the bud.

"Mmm," Miles put it in his mouth, "Indirect kiss! My Hobie!" He snuggles against his sweater being so happy. Yet, he wants more. He wants more of his baby.

From another world, Hobie hanging out with Gwen and Pavtri. "Oi, have you two noticed Peter Pan acting differently?" He asked.

"Miles? Nah, he's just stressed from school." Gwen said.

Pavtri nodded, "Yeah, I heard he was suspended."

"What?" Hobie asked.

"He didn't tell you? He was suspended because a girl falsely accuse him being a stalker. It was a whole thing." Gwen said with a frown, "I can't believe that bitch. She had to lie through her teeth, what's worst she dropped the charges and moved away."

"Yeah, she made this whole thing about a black kid following her in the middle of the night and claim it was Miles." Pavtri shook his head, "But there was flaws to her story."

"She said it was late at night, which she shouldn't be out because of dorms. Then she said she saw Miles because she saw him by some alley wearing his olive green jacket." Gwen said the rest, "That fucking bitch had the audacity to say he tackle her. But her story didn't add up because one she said it was dark. There were no evidence of Miles leaving his room. She said she noticed him everywhere in school- Duh, no shit it's fucking school."

"Bloody hell. Who was this trick?" Hobie asked getting upset.

"Some girl Miles use to date. Oh and that's another thing, they broke up. So some people thought she was doing that for attention, because Miles didn't react much to it." Pavtri said, "So maybe she wanted to get him in trouble."

"The whole thing got her in so much trouble. Like she was bullied to move away. Especially when Miles' dad did whatever to disprove her false accusation. Good riddance." Gwen snorted, "Poor Miles still had to be suspended because of the drama. I think his parents are planning to sue the school for discrimination and wrongful treatment."

Hobie said, "Poor lad and here I thought he was being a bit weird."

"I'm surprised you're calling him weird like that." Gwen felt a bit offended. "I thought you like him."

"Like him as a friend? Yes. He's a good Spider-man." Hobie nodded.

Pavtri said, "Awe, you two aren't going out."

"Ha, me and him? Nah, I'm too much for him, bruv. Besides, he's not my type." Hobie chuckles.

"Whelp, at least he sees you as a friend, too." Gwen hums.

"I know, I know, I know it ain't true (I know, I know, I know it ain't true)"

Miles follows Hobie into Miguel's office for a mission. He happily smiles, "Hobie! Hobie! I haven't seen you in awhile. Where were you?"

Hobie casually lies, "Bein' Spider-man..."

Oh no! That's a no-no, Hobie... You shouldn't lie to Miles. The seventeen year old nodded at that, he knew his Hobie was parting and drinking with his own group of friends. He slept with random people, too. Which got Miles' eyes darken by the thought a measly slut touching his Hobie like that.

"Okay, hehe... oh, I think you got something on your neck, man." Miles' hand touches the punker's jaw being a little rough, he jerk his head to the side to show the neck cover in a red lipstick kiss. "Ohh, you got some lipstick on here." He lick his thumb to rub off the mark.

Hobie tensed up by the teenager. What in the world? Then Miles pulls him close to whispers lowly, "You shouldn't lie to me, Hobie."

Now, this got Hobie's Spidey Senses going off. What the hell? His inky eyes look at Miles' doe eyes looking so filled with joy, that warm smiling piercing through the eerie feeling.

"Morales. Brown. Stop fooling around. We have a mission to do." Miguel said out loud.

"Sure, sir!" Miles lets go of his punker before running over toward Miguel for the mission. Hobie stood being quite nervous, his Spider Senses still going off.

"Cause I'm addicted The taste of your blood red lips and"

Miles drums his hands waiting for Hobie to text him back about hanging out on Saturday. His Hobie never responded so he went to text Gwen.

Miles: Hey Gwen!

Gwen: Hey, Miles! What's up?

Miles: Nuthin' much just sketching at home... the usual.

Gwen: Huh why? Aren't ya going to the party tonight?

Miles: What? What party?

Gwen: Hobie's kick back... wait, he didn't invite you? That's weird. Maybe he forgot.

Miles felt hurt. Why wouldn't Hobie invite him? Weren't they friends- more than that- they were lovers. Miles' know his mind already had them together, but Hobie should know that. He's his!

Miles: Maybe... it's okay.

Gwen: You sure?

Miles: Yeah... have fun.

In Hobie's world, Pavtri chilling in Hobie's room. The punker was looking for his band shirt but couldn't find it. "Where is it?" Hobie dug through a pile of his clothes on the floor.

"Dude, we been looking through here for thirty minutes! Can we go back to the party! Gwen and Miles should-" Hobie angrily sighs, "I didn't invite Miles?"

"Huh, why?"

"Because.. .because he's being weird."

Pavtri gasps, "Hobie! Miles being weird? What?"

"Look the other day, he told me not to lie to him..."

"But did you lie?" Pavtri asked.

"Yes..." Hobie was about to add more until his friend threw his hands in the air.

"Dude! Seriously?" Pavtri shook his head, "So your not his friend anymore?"

"I dunno... Pav, mate... be careful around him. Something in me is telling me to stay away from him." Hobie is shaken by the way Miles' grab his face to say those words to him like he already knew... How?

"Whatever you say man. I think you're just tripping out on those crazy drugs you take."

"NO, I'm not!"

"Huh uh..." Pavtri got up, "Well, good luck finding your shirt."

Hobie stood still being upset he couldn't find his damn shirt.

"You sink in your finger tips"

Hobie hasn't seen Miles in weeks, he did his best to avoid him. Yet, somehow he felt the teenager have been following him. Miles would be there whenever he enter a room in HQ or find him passing by.

Spider Senses didn't go off, but he did see Miles here or there. No matter where he went he saw Miles coming by or passing by him.

The creepiest part is when he was busy talking to two Spider-heroes that none of his friend group knew. Then all of sudden,

Spider-woman laughs, "Oh Hobie, you're so funny. Hey, we should bring Miles to it."

"Yeah, Miles is so fun at missions!" A Spider-man said.

Wait... Miles? How did they know Miles?

"Oh there he is! Miles! Come over here. Hobie told us a funny joke." The Spider-woman said.

Miles happily appeared with a big smile on his face, his eyes on Hobie- those doe eyes so fixated on him. "Oh really? Hey Hobie, been awhile, hmm? What's the joke? Is it that pub one with the Queen?"

Wait, how did he knows that... he never told that joke to him before. He was sure of it. How did Miles know these two Spider-heroes? There was no way he could've... not even by random, too!

"Oh you guys know each other! Wow, what are the odds, huh?" The Spider-man laughs.

"Yeah! Anyway, we should do a mission together!"

"Sure." Miles' smile widen showing off his teeth, "Come, Hobie." Hobie had to listen... his Spider Senses were going off.

It was freakin' him out to the point Hobie would chug down his beer when he gets home. He became quite the alcoholic seeing Miles around.

He found a freshly cold beer on the table, he took it without a thought. *GULP* *GULP*

Wait... he stops himself, he never took this beer out. Then saw a small note.

Meet me in your room. 💜-Love Miles

Hobie drops his beer, he leans over to the hallway into his Houseboat, it looked dark eerie. Slowly making his way into his room, he saw his door slightly open with lights and Miles' giggles. It sounded him digging through his things.

Hobie's heavy boots made a low thud which caused the sound of Miles' to stop looking. "I hear you, baby!" He knows Miles' is smiling wide, his doe eyes on him.

His Spider Sense begging him to leave, such fear that never crossed him before- No, he has to keep going. He needs to find out why Miles is doing this.

When Hobie finally open the door, he found Miles wearing his lost band shit, and snuggling against his blankets on the bed. This time Miles is wearing nothing underneath his large band shirt.

"Hobie, baby!" Miles sang, "Did you like the beer I left for you."

"Miles... bruv-" Hobie forced a gulp, "I don't know what is going on, but you have to stop."

"Stop what?" Miles smiles at him, "All I did is be a good friend. You told me, I was welcome to come whenever to hang out. And I'm worried because you haven't talk to me in weeks!"

"Miles, you know what you're doing." Hobie said in a serious tone, "I know what really happen with that lass you dated... Rebecca was it?"

"Oh her!" Miles hums with his body lying on Hobie's bed, "Did you like the report? My dad made sure to dig it under a rug."

"Fuckin' pig... covering up his son for-" Miles snaps at Hobie, "He's my dad no shit he'll protect me! Anyway, it doesn't matter. My parents sued the school, and Rebecca moved away." His left shoulder showing while he pouts at Hobie, "Why do you care about her?"

"Because you did attack her?"

"No, I merely wanted to hug her. She broke up with me, when all I did was love her! She said I was too much!" Miles dug through the bed to pull out a sharp butcher knife, "And when she went to the cops, she thought it would really stop me!"

Hobie stood horrified the way Miles cup his face still holding the knife, "I just wanna be closer to her! To wrap her pretty skin around me!"

"Miles... you didn't- Your-your Spider-man!" Hobie took a step back.

"Hehehe, when she moved away, I was able to find her. I just wanted her knows that I could never let her go. No one can have her, so..." He stabs into the bed. "It's more personal that way, hehehe."

"I tighten the noose when I'm with you"

Hobie felt his eyes being blurry, "What the fuck?" He took another step back feeling his body heavy. "Wha-what's wrong with me?" He leans against a wall for support.

Miles watches him, "Looks like the drug is working."

"What did you do to me?" Hobie shouted.

"Nothing just gives a very high dose of Propofol... you know, us Spider-men need high dosage." He creepily crawl out of the bed watching Hobie slowly falling on the floor.

The Punker breathes in panic as he tries to focus on moving but couldn't. Then his vision shows Miles with that damn smile and those eyes, "I finally have you now."

When Hobie woke up, he noticed he was strapped onto his bed. "GRR! MILES! Miles!" Where the hell was he? He noticed he was in his room, the houseboat rocking back and forth.

What the hell going on?

Miles appeared from the door, "Oh good, you're awake!" He was still wearing the large band shirt being barefoot, "I finished docking the boat! Or is it parking? Whatever. I found a perfect spot for us to spend together forever and ever, Hobie!"

"Miles! Let me go!" Hobie tries to move his legs.

Wait...

He tries to move his hands.

As the punker lifted his head up, he screams in horror. Miles giggles, "I did what I had to do... how else I'll know you'll stay here, hmm?" He happily went over to the side to show neatly wrapped limbs, "Mmm, don't worry. I'll keep them nice and safe in a freezer!"

"You fucking psycho! What the fuck you did to me!" Hobie screams in panic, in pain and tears. "My hands! My fucking legs!"

Miles' eyes darken with a sadistic smile, "You left me, Hobie. You lie and ignore me! You had to be punished, baby! Your Sunflower doesn't take too kindly on back and forth bullshit."

"Sunflower? You're a fucking maggot! What the fuck are-" Hobie stops himself when Miles grabbed a knife and stab next to him, slowly letting the knife dig deep into the mattress.

Miles gave a small smile at Hobie, "Mmm, yeah. That's what I thought. Ohh, my baby. Don't worry, your Sunflower will take care of you. I'm here to be yours and only yours." He gently cup Hobies' face to give him a soft peck on the lips.

Hobie growls trying to pulling away, "Your not strong enough, bae. I made sure you stay good and drugged. You'll forever be stuck with me."

"What about Gwendy? Pav? Miguel! You think they won't notice?" Hobie added, his dark eyes on Miles. He's sitting on top of him.

"Hmm," Miles pouted, his hand yank out the knife, "There's ways to kill off Gwen and Pav... Miguel is easy, he doesn't give a shit about you. He likes listening to me... I think cuz he knows what I am, and what I'm capable of." He lick his lips. "You don't want me to kill Gwen and Pav..."

"No. No, don't do that Miles. They're our friends."

"Awe, ours! We're together!" Miles happily giggles with his hands on his cheeks being bashful. "Oh Hobie, you have way with words."

Hobie could only lay in fright. What the fuck is wrong with this dude. "What about your parents?"

"They don't care if I leave. My dad was happy when I ran away. Besides, all I need is you, baby." He wrap his arms around his Hobie's neck. "Me and you! I'm willing to take your place as Spider-Punk so you don't have to worry about anything ever again."

"Your insane..."

"Only for you." He winks at him. "Also, if you ever betray me... I will kill everyone you hold dear with...heh, it's not like you can do anything about." Miles' eyes on Hobie's situation.

Hobie could only stay silent being trapped in this hell hole. Miles added, "Oh and I won't kill no one if you behave. I want you to be happy with me. We have so many plans! We gonna get married, have a house with a picket fence- Oh, I always wanted a pet dog and two kids!"

"Miles... please stop."

"Hahaha, oh Hobie. You're mine forever!" Miles happily caught his prey in his web, "I love you, Hobie." Hobie can only weep at his new life, while Miles happily live in his own sick fantasy.

"I could never let you loose"

This is super messy but idc, I needed a lil Giyuu comfort.

“Its okay…” Giyuu muttered as he stud in front of you, his icy blue eyes stared down at you with patience.

You were crying, the pain in your chest, your heart ached your limbs weakend. No thoughts were in your mind just grief was the only thing your body gave out. The person you loved didn’t returned your feelings, heck you never even had the chance to confess to them, in just a blink of an eye they were sweep off their feet and you stud there in silence, having to bite your tongue because there was nothing you could do now.

This stressful feeling just made your mind overthink. “Great Y/N. If you weren’t such a coward maybe things could’ve worked out.” “Awesome y/n, maybe if you would’ve told them as soon as your heart skipped beats no matter how soon, maybe a few doors would’ve open”. But there were no buts or what ifs anymore, you had to swallow the knot in your chest, like it or not.

You were so lost in your head that you forgot who even stud in front of you. Tch… they must think you’re pathetic for crying like this with no shame publicly and not in the privacy of your home.

“I-I’m sorry… I-I’m so s-so sorry” you managed to muster up a few words with out choking on your sobs and hiccups.

Giyuu’s eyes widen then suddenly he dropped his blade immediately, he slowly and carefully sat on his knees infront lf you to not spook you.

“Y/n…” he whispered.

“im sorry! I’m so pathetic! Crying o-over stupid t-things!” You cried out.

“Y/N!” Giyuu barked. The raised volume of Giyuu’s voice set you off, you immediately stop to look at him with wide open eyes. You never herd him like this and now that you could process who was witnessing your break down, you felt embarrassed.

Giyuu could tell how you felt, he knew that feeling too well. Giyuu slowly and gently leaned in to wrap his arms around your body, giving you a sincere hug, it felt nice… suddenly you feel one of his hands rubbing you back as he rests his heads on top of yours.

“Sshhh… let it out y/n… it’s alright… you’re safe…” Giyuu whispered trying t comfort you.

You felt safe, you felt like Giyuu would never judge you, he was always so nice to you… why are you noticing all of these things now?… maybe because he was the one always there for you… remember?

Remember who came to visit you while you were in training? Who brought you food and sat down with you to have a meal together? Who stud up for you and defended you from unfair treatment? That’s right, Giyuu Tomioka was. Ever since you started your demon slayer journey, Giyuu became your pillar.

You cling onto Giyuu’s uniform to let out everything you held back as he holds you close to him, he furrowed his eyes looking down at you, he hated to see you like this but this was the right thing, the healthiest way.

After you finishing crying, Giyuu made sure you’re okay, he placed his hands on both of your face’s cheeks caressing them as he inspected your whole face then he forms a small soft smile to show how happy he is that you trusted him and you’re okay now.

After a few minutes of collecting yourself, you thought it was the right time to get back on your grind, its time to heal. Giyuu helped you get up, slowly and carefully, you were being treated like a porcelain doll by a strong man such as Giyuu Tomioka, the water pillar out of all people came out of his comfort zone to help you…

Giyuu made sure you arrived at your home safely and assured you that if you ever need anything to please send him a crow to his way and he’ll do his best to be there for you.

“Y/N… my y/n… when will you notice that my love takes every shape you mold?…” Giyuu thought to himself as his half lidded eyes concentrated on the road up ahead yet at the same time he was lost in mind with you…”

#giyuu #giyuu tomioka #tomioka #kny #comfort #SoundCloud #this is super messy im so sorry lol #i just needed some comfort so I’m sorry if it doesn’t make sense #it was meant for myself anyways lol

AAAAAAAA TRIGUN MAXIMUM VOL 3, MY BELOVED!!!!!!!!

once I get some flailing out of my system, I'll get right into my thoughts and things and whatever translation weirdness I find as I re-read ch 1!!!

(NOTE: I'm reading the Dark Horse [physical] and the Overhaul [online] translations side-by-side)

as I've said before, I first read the Dark Horse translation as it came out in the US when I was a teenager almost 20 years ago. I remember always carrying the latest volume around with me at school, reading and re-reading it every chance I got (often when I should've been doing other things, y'know, as you do), and...honestly, I'm amazed I didn't get vol 3 taken away and/or had my parents called on me for it 😅 no spoilers, but lemme tell you: this volume, you can really feel the jump from shounen to seinen. maybe that's one of the reasons why it's among those that most stick out to me? there are other reasons, of course, but I'll get to them as they come up. anyway. I'm excited about this volume, so let's get into it!

(Dark Horse on top, Overhaul on bottom)

on the first page after the table of contents, we have context-altering translation discrepancies. I mean, yeah, you could say either one works, but...idk. once again, I'm more partial to the Overhaul. to me, it better emphasizes how much Wolfwood finds uncanny and/or doesn't understand about Vash.

and these flashbacks as Wolfwood's falling? I never rly understood it. this time around, I see it as Wolfwood ① reflecting on how Vash expresses his ideology and ② getting pissed about it (again).

I didn't understand what was happening on this page until this read-through! I always thought Wolfwood just hit a wall or something, but no - it's a lil self-own with the Punisher there (no but srsly, o u c h)

on the next page, subtle translation differences. Dark Horse has Wolfwood saying to Gray "Well done...y' big lug! Now, eat your reward! I'll feed you your death!!" whereas the Overhaul has "Nice job...ya fat lug! I'll feed ya yer reward! Now, eat lead!"

...and here, the translations say THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE of one another 😵‍��

a more minor translation discrepancy is when Leonov is set up to attack Vash with that frickin'...vivisection-made...human taxidermy puppet behemoth...Dark Horse says "27 lethal points!" while the Overhaul says "27 lethal strikes!"

same deal with after Vash guns the thing down (in tHE COOLEST GOTDAMN SEQUENCE!!!). I'm not sure if it's Leonov talking for himself or through the puppet Unica, but either way, Dark Horse has (talking about Vash) "What a baffling fellow. If you're going to aim, it should be for the head, right?" while the Overhaul has "You're a strange fellow. If you intend to shoot me, shouldn't you aim for the head?" before, I thought this was in reference to Vash shooting the puppet thing - but this read-through, with the Overhaul wording things more obviously, it occurs to me that it's actually in reference to Vash also shooting through the tree branch that Leonov and Unica were just standing on.

that "drilling" bit always confused me. the Overhaul's translation...brings to mind that thing Nightow said in an interview about Vash and Knives leading a 'crawling existence' - this prolonged life alongside and witnessing humanity (to differing extents, of course)...

also. Leonov's face bleeding. I distinctly remember thinking on my very first read-through "dayum, he's got a strong grip!" but this. has nothing to do with that. 😱

on the next page, a minor translation discrepancy which falls under the category of Dark Horse Breaking Down Words And/Or Sentences Weird. in the Dark Horse translation, Unica's like "Splendid. How splendid! The. Raw. Material!" whereas in the Overhaul, it's "Splendid. How splendid! Untainted material!" oh Dark Horse, u so silly~

anyway! thanks to the Overhaul's translation, I know from the last chapter of the previous volume just how fucked up Leonov's puppets are! which makes this panel that much more horrific to me!!!!! 🫠

and then, over the next several pages, we have a whole monolog by Wolfwood that is rife with context-altering translation discrepancies;;;;;

in Dark Horse, we have this:

"A man...does not change... The name remains, long after the body is no longer bound to the flesh...when the blood is drained, the muscles stripped from the bone... Nothing beautiful enters here. That's reality for ya. ' 'Til death, the outer road tastes like the outer road.' "

...okay???

in the Overhaul, it's a whole 'nother story:

"The world...doesn't change... Yer name might remain, even long after ya die...but yer ideals join ya in the grave. Nothin' good ever lasts in this world. That's just reality for ya. Ya can keep on walkin' down this road 'til ya bite the dust. Nothin' will change."

the way I see it, it's a continuation of Wolfwood's lil ideological disagreement with Vash. this monolog is how Wolfwood sees the world. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: ah, Wolfwood...spoken like a man stuck between a rock and a hard place! 🥲

yeah, weird translation discrepancy on that left speech bubble 8T

Bardle VS Border has me a bit baffled, tho. it's definitely a mistranslation of an "imported" (therefore written in katakana) word, but that's where it gets weird. I looked it up and the closest "imported" word match I could find to "border" was ボーダー (literally "bo—da—" when romanized, O pronounced as in the American English word "over" and A pronounced as in "father"). SO. I'm thinking maybe the original Japanese used ボーダール (literally "bo—da—ru" when romanized, U pronounced as in "use"), but idk. what I'd give to see this panel untranslated...

aaaaand we end the chapter with a little slapstick palate-cleanser from the girls 🤭

#trigunbookclub #text postan 2k23 #tyyyyy as always for y'all's comments and continued support! reading them always makes me smile so hard xkhxjgxjg

Justice League X RWBY Crossover Movie Liveblog

i’m not spelling out the whole thing every time

It took some reloading due to internet issues for me to catch it, but the Grimm are, glitching? Yang’s comment about breathing lazers must mean that it’s a ‘worlds crossing’ issue.

why are they emphasizing yang’s breast so much

I picked up on Superman’s semblance limitation right away, and it’s the same limitation he had in the comic

Her little pose saying “Don’t worry, I got you!” (which i might have missed by one frame)

Does the Youtube version have weird volume issues? Is that a production thing or a distribution thing?

“when things get weird, you can bet there’s one person who knows what’s going on (camera pan to Beacon), Ozpin” what did you break this time old man XD

“B: What are they[Atlas] doing, having a party?” “W: I can’t believe you’re having a party.” That transition made me wheeze

I do like seeing the Schnee manor again, filled with returning v7 faces. It does feel like a party.

I do like Bruce and Weiss’s dynamic already

You Schnees and your diegetic (in-universe) music!

Turns out Ozpin didn’t break anything, if anything he’s just an NPC in this weird mix up

Nice of the movie to sprinkle in RWBY-universe world building for the DC fans

Cyborg saying “What, you haven’t learned how to adapt thanks to childhood trauma?” to Ren and Nora of all people is a pointed choice and I’m here for it XD

Bonus points for Ren and Nora immediately demonstrating they ways they react to it too, Nora with humor and Ren with bitter silence.

Flash is being a snarky lil’ shit to constrast more strongly with Jaune is great

I know it’s just a training montage but cmon - Nora’s hit should have had more of an impact on Barry than *squeaky toy noise* after all that build up

“He’s fine.” “He’s in pain!” *eye roll* I missed sassy Ren so much

JNR I missed you all together so much.

aaaand my internet is being slow, hold on I’m gonna meme

i was watching something on youtube last night and then on the side saw a song and i was like “i have no idea who this is but ima give it a listen cause i need new music” so i click it and at first at the beginning since it was a lil slow i was like “mmmm dont think this is gonna be up my alley” so i skim some forward and right when i heard her singing, my jaw dropped, and it stayed dropped the entire rest of the song

oh my god, Pandora by Suzuna Nagihara. This type of music is typically not up my alley (like i’ll find it cool but i wouldnt download it) BUT over the course of the song, the song just got more epic and epic and im like HOLY SHIT??? with every new section. Very JRPG, Nier-like, epic, full of choruses, and the banger part is the synth bEATS that are incorporated into it which i fuckin love.

But that’s not what captivated me. What captivated me was her VOICE. Her singing. oh my god. idek where to start. It’s so airy, breathy, and LIGHT, yet she still manages hit the stronger notes at the same time when she needs to. But even her stronger notes sound light and open. Idk if it’s the help of the mixing of the song or not but omg, just, the way she sings this song fITS SO WELL FOR THIS TYPE OF SONG AND JUST WORKS SO WELL AND IT JUST MAKES THE SONG S TIER. and i love it so much. Voice aside though, the song is just kinda insane, i love the distortion/glitch at 0:44. i think it was a great way to introduce the faster speed of the song/transition into the actual (?) song. As if the part before 0:44 was just a prologue (as she sings in the lyric) ((Though I feel like the song actually starts at 1:40))

I obviously then checked out her other stuff and she does a ton of JP song covers, and of course they’re all very good, but there are definitely certain songs that works better for her voice, cause I don’t think she’s a big belter (though she can, of course). She tends to sing best with her head voice (?), which makes me think that her cover of Kaede’s Koikaze from Cinderella Girls was one of her better covers. Not saying her other covers were bad, but Koikaze and her original song Pandora are up up up up there. Singing in a head voice/falsetto is definitely her stronger suit and more to her.

Her regular speaking voice is also very nice :)))))))))))))))))

Anyway go check the song out pls thank you, i never usually bother with writing this much about something that isn’t a sad post, SO THAT JUST SHOWS HOW POWERFULLY THIS SONG/HER VOICE HIT ME.

youtube

It’s also on the quieter side for some reason so u gotta boost ur volume, it might have been on purpose but that was a Bad choice to do that imhO. this song needs to be LOUD.

Also one last note: the part from 3:57-4:04 is so chilling cause of the way she sang it, that emotion sounded SO, SO RAW. whether she was acting or not (maybe most likely ?) it was so jaw dropping, i remember my jaw dropping more than it already dropped and breaking my floor when i got to that part for the first time.

TLDR: I love Suzuna’s Nagihara’s voice a lot, especially in her original song called Pandora, so give it a listen :)

#udon talks about things #which is very rare #this may not mean anything to you at all and thats okay #just know that i was very very captivated by her singing here and was intrigued #captivated and intrigued enough to write a huge ass post about it

Putting ideas out during breaks... All because of one fic that caused me to have headcanons. 💖

(don't blame you, @miii-chaaan... But you it sprouted because of that)

On a different note, Not chronological. The one time maverick found out Goose and Ice can be affectionate bastards, and Slider is the youngest between the three of them.

Honestly, it's just a bunch of words out, waiting to turn into an actual lil fic.

Slider sat on the side of a bench, unforgiving sun right on top of him, scorching hot. Ice nowhere in sight, he would appear soon, he thought, side by side with Mitchell. And Goose. He spent so much time with them, like an absurdly lot of time. Not that slider was jealous, okay? Why should he? His pilot could hang out with whoever he wanted, him and maverick had chemistry, no one would deny it. Slider wasn't jealous.

He swallowed, looking around. Everyone was with someone, mostly pilots and respective RIO. And he was-- alone.

It felt weirdly familiar, like his first times at academy. Right until the two older boys approached him.

It felt definitely familiar. Slider didn't hear them walk up to him, earphones on despite the low volume.

Maverick notices his RIO, with an arm around his shoulders, lean close to Ice in the other side, nod and whisper something. Then he saw the smirk ice gave in return, an almost silent exchange he was being left out of. He frowned, scrunched up his nose, then they both, as one, moved away from him and toward what, from a distance, seemed to be slider, sitting on a bench. Mav had actually wondered where the man had been, he usually was around Ice, not this time. He seemed to be sitting there, completely alone. He looked a bit pathetic, actually.

"Ronnie~" Ice reached him first, he wrapped his arms around his neck, dragging him backward just slightly. Maverick saw him jump and flinch just slightly, perhaps he didn't hear him.

Goose was next to him too, a familiarity that made Mav frown everytime. It was obvious they knew each other well, yet... Well, perhaps Mav was a little jealous of that, so used, lately, to have Goose all for himself.

"aww, what's baby Ron doing here all alone?" he cooed, and Mav blinked.

"wha--" slider turned, finding himself with goose's face almost on him. "are you two drunk? At not even 3pm?"

"why? Because we're being affectionate with our baby Ronnie here?"

"ice--"

Maverick got close too, he stood in front of the other RIO, saw him blush a deep red. Ice held him a little closer.

"me and Goose were talking, you know?"

Goose nodded next to him, he had an hand on his hair, wrapping his fingers around the short curls.

"oh, yeah? That's nice..."

"and we agreed that you looked down, lately."

Oh, so they still observed, he thought. They still looked at him, even though it seemed like their every look was directed to maverick.

"so, here we are."

"hugging me? Calling pet names?"

"mother goose idea. Besides, Mav here should know that you were the baby first."

"yup." goose agreed. Mav frowned again. The baby? Isn't slider older?

"and you, baby ron, have nothing to worry about. Just because Mav is there, he's not taking your place."

Goose moved his hand down from the hair to his neck, he dragged him toward him until slider was laying his head against his side.

Taking his place where?

"you're ours." ice bent over, he pressed his lips on top of his head. "maybe we should make it a little clearer, make sure you remember."

"i know..."

Slider muttered, he shivered slightly as his hands pressed over his chest, fingers slipping between the buttons of the shirt.

"of course you know, but we need to treat you right, not make you jealous and sad."

"I'm not--"

It was then, maverick blinked in surprise, that Goose leaned closer and stole a little kiss from his lips.

"hush, let us make it right."

"yeah, but not here, don't you think?"

"oh, Ice, we did worse..."

Goose chuckled. Mav didn't fully understand, but it was quite fascinating seeing the older man blush like that as both Goose and Ice wrapped themselves on him.

#top gun fanfiction #ron slider kerner #tom iceman kazansky #nick goose bradshaw #ship: we could've ruled the skies together #Ice/slider/Goose #Sli is not jealous technically #But Mav is monopolizing their attention without meaning it #(sli and Mav actually go along pretty well... Kinda like brothers #And he decides that embarrassing him is fun and start to get overly affectionate too #Tho the fic will mostly be on the early years first #Aki writes

✶⋆.˚꩜ it's not what it looks like, i swear!˙⋆✶ w/ the wind breaker boys

✿ featuring: haruka sakura, ren kaji, hajime umemiya, hayato suo, jo togame, toma hiragi (first time writing for hiragi! yipeee) ✿ contains: suggestive dialogues, crack, mutual pining, some established relationship, a lil bit of fluff ✿ a/n: heads up, please do not read this while drinking coffee because you’ll probably end up like sakura in the banner ( ≧ᗜ≦) ✿ wc: 2.4k

— what happens when perfectly innocent scenarios with them turn suggestive once they are taken out of context? well, you're about to find out one way or another.

ʚɞ kaji -

how did you two end up in this position?

kaji was sprawled on top of you, his hands braced on either side of your head with his knees straddling your legs. his face was so close that you could feel his breath against your skin, your cheeks burning pink as his eyes locked with yours.

"kaji, you were supposed to be chasing the cat, not me!" you exclaimed, feeling the heat rise up your cheeks.

"you were in the way." kaji responded, with a frustrated sigh.

"you were the one who knocked me over!" you shot back at him.

he tried to move aside, but the way your breath hitched, your lips parted and your cute face so flushed left him momentarily frozen.

when you offered to help kaji find risa-chan, you had no idea how things would spiral. chasing the cat with the pink ribbon felt like trying to catch a bolt of lightning.

as you both darted around in pursuit, kaji eventually found her on a bush and made a desperate lunge to grab the elusive feline. instead, he ended up accidentally colliding into you, sending you both tumbling into an unexpectedly intimate position.

"kaji! that’s not the cat you’rrre supposed to be chasing! arrre you two fooling arrround with each otherrr now?" enomoto’s voice rang out, breaking the spell. beside him was kusumi who covered his eyes with his hands—though the gap between his fingers betrayed his curiosity.

"we weren't—"

"this isn't—"

neither you nor kaji could find the words to explain how you two ended up like this, tangled up and breathless, both of you too flustered to speak.

finally, kaji regained composure and got up, dusting off his clothes before offering you a hand, still refusing to meet your gaze as you took his outstretched hand to pull yourself up. you two continued your search without uttering a word to one another.

although, the way kaji fiddled with his lollipop and hurriedly put on his headphones while turning his blushing face away everytime he saw you spoke volumes. why did you have to look so adorable in that vulnerable position?

kaji did end up catching something else that day, and it was feelings of undeniable romantic attraction for you.

ʚɞ umemiya -

"there, there, let me put it in, i'll a be a bit more gentle this time, okay?" umemiya said, his voice calm and reassuring. "oh no, it won't go in." you exhaled in frustration.

"ah, it's because your hole is too tight." he said with a slight grin. "what? i-i thought maybe it was just too big to fit in my hole." you replied, a hint of embarrassment in your voice.

"don't worry, i've got you. i'll help you ease it in - there we go, nice and deep, just like that." umemiya groaned softly as he helped you lift and position the pots in their rightful place.

"you're so good at this, ume!" you praised him, giving umemiya a pat on the back, your eyes lighting up in admiration as he gave you a wide, proud smile.

gardening together with umemiya was definitely hot. literally. the sun beaming down on you both, with little shade to protect your skin from the heat.

as you wiped the sweat from your forehead, you wondered how he managed to convince you to be his gardening assistant for the day. maybe it was his irresistable charm, or that infectious smile.

either way, you were here now, knee-deep in dirt, struggling to transport seedlings - a task that was proving to be far more challenging than you anticipated.

meanwhile, the tamon squad had gathered outside the rooftop garden, their faces flustered as they listened in on your conversation.

"are they-?" nirei whispered, his voice filled with disbelief.

"but...on the rooftop of all places?" kiryu added, equally shocked.

"what are they doing, it sounds so-" sakura began, but hiragi cut him off. "okay, that's enough. everybody back to patrol-" hiragi declared, but then the weight of everyone leaning on the rooftop door caused it to whip open.

they all accidentally burst into the garden, only to be met by the sight of you and umemiya...calmly arranging pots. nothing more, nothing less.

oh, so that's what it's about. the tightness, and the holes, and the depth. it all made sense now.

suo bent forward and whispered to both of you: "sorry, we kind of misunderstood and thought you two were doing something else up here."

you and umemiya exchanged confused glances with flushed faces, completely oblivious to what they were insinuating.

upon looking back and gaining realization of what you and umemiya might have sounded like to them, your only wish was to be a transported seedling buried beneath the soil of umemiya's garden.

ʚɞ sakura -

you pressed the back of your hand against sakura’s forehead, feeling the unmistakable heat radiating from his skin. "you’re burning up, sakura." you murmured, in a concerned tone.

he tried to brush it off, his cheeks faintly flushed. "what are you talking about!? i’m fine...!" he protested, but his hoarse voice betrayed him.

you shook your head, a determined look in your eyes. "take off your top."

sakura’s eyes shot wide open. "w-what? no! why are you trying to undress me?!"

you stifled a laugh, and tried to ease him. "to give you a sponge bath, silly. don't worry, i'm used to taking care of sick people. it'll help lower your temperature."

despite his protests, he eventually allowed you to help, his face burning brighter as you carefully sponged his fevered skin, your touch both soothing and embarrassing him.

when dinner time rolled around, you placed a bowl of steaming soup in front of him. "here, umemiya gave me the recipe. it's his special soup!"

sakura, still flustered from earlier, reached for the bowl with shaky hands, but you gently stopped him.

"say ah." you instructed, holding a spoonful of soup close to his lips.

his eyes widened again, his voice shaky. "w-what are you trying to do this time?"

you tilted your head. "you’re too weak to hold the spoon, sakura. let me take care of you." you smiled gently at him.

"i’m...i’m fine!" he insisted, his face a mix of embarrassment and defiance.

you leaned in closer. "sakura, let me do this for you. i’m not taking no for an answer."

he eventually reluctantly opened his mouth, allowing you to feed him. this feeling was all so foreign to him, as no one ever tried to care of him like this.

however, the real challenge came when it was time for him to take his medicine. sakura outright refused, turning his head away with a stubborn glare.

"be a good boy and take it." you insisted, holding the medicine out to him.

"no way." he muttered, crossing his arms defiantly.

a sigh escaped your lips. "sakura, don’t make me give it to you by force."

his eyes widened for a moment at your insinuation, but he still refused to budge. so, with a determined look, you gently pushed him back onto the bed, pinning him down.

"open your mouth." you commanded, in a firm voice.

sakura’s blush deepened as he squirmed beneath you. he hesitantly opened his mouth, allowing you to administer the medicine, his cheeks burning with both the fever and the flurry of emotions he couldn’t quite name along with the intrusive thoughts running in his mind.

as he finally swallowed, you wiped a stray drop from his lips and smiled softly. "see? that wasn’t so bad."

but instead of cooling down, you noticed sakura’s face was only getting redder, his body temperature seemingly rising even higher. you frowned, pressing your hand against his forehead again.

"hm, strange. this medicine is supposed to lower your temperature...why are you heating up even more?" you murmured.

sakura turned his head away, hiding his flushed face in the pillow, his voice barely above a whisper. "i-i don’t know either..."

you couldn’t help but wonder what was really causing his temperature to spike. maybe the medicine just needed more time...or maybe it had nothing to do with the fever at all.

ʚɞ togame -

you had asked togame to teach you self-defense, and who better to learn from than togame himself, shishitoren's second-in-command, whose fighting style was totally unpredictable, and could knock a dozen opponents to the ground.

it took a lot of convincing, but eventually, he agreed once you promised him you'll buy him a whole crate of ramune. it also didn't help that you threw him puppy eyes and a pleading face that even the togame jo himself is not immune to.

during your sparring sessions, togame tried his best to go easy on you, since he didn't want to hurt you, but you told him you wanted him to go full-force.

"is that all you’ve got?" you teased, dodging another swipe from togame.

"nah, i’m just getting started." he shot back, as he lunged at you. you barely had time to react before togame grabbed your wrist, pulling you down onto the floor. you twisted away, but togame was quicker, pinning you beneath him.

"got you now." togame says, his voice low, leaning in close as you struggled under him, his weight pressing down just enough to keep you in place, the warmth of his body making your breath hitch.

"not yet, you don’t." you countered, managing to free one of your arms. with a swift motion, you flipped togame onto his back, your faces being inches apart, as you could see the evident blush on his face from being too close to you.

his hands found your waist, holding you in place as you both caught your breath.

anyone who caught you two in that position would have thought you were fighting for dominance in a different sense.

"okay, you win." he chuckled, togame's eyes looking directly into yours. "but only because i let you."

"oh, really?" you replied, unable to hide the smile tugging at your lips. "i think you just like being in this position."

he blinked, the room and your faces suddenly feeling warmer as your words sunk in. before he could respond, you leaned in slightly, bringing his face even closer to yours, the air between you thick with tension. he was close enough to kiss, and it certainly didn't help that he wasn't trying to make any attempt to stop you.

togame told you he wanted a round two with you, saying he wasn't going to let you off easy this time.

ʚɞ suo -

you had agreed to help suo and sakura bake a cake for nirei's birthday, as you three were nirei's closest friends, and you wanted to make it a special celebration for him.

suo, who was quite skilled in baking, took charge and offered to teach you, while sakura assisted from the sidelines, helping the both of you in preparing the ingredients.

it was going well at first, the kitchen filled with the sweet aroma of vanilla and chocolate, but as you and suo began working closely together on the cake, things turned into a bit of a spiced up situation.

first, you and suo mixed the batter.

"oh, you’ve really got a knack for handling the sticky stuff, huh?" suo watched you pour in the ingredients, with a playful smile on his face.

"do i? maybe it's because you help me out all the time." you say to him.

"i'm glad. here let's help you out with this, too." suo approaches you and helps you steady the mixer from behind. "thank you, suo. it's quite big so i might have a hard time doing it alone."

when sakura glanced over, from his angle it looked like suo was pressing you up against the counter, and a furious blush crept up on his cheeks as he swatted away his unwanted thoughts.

"oh, dear. it might be too wet." you turned to suo to ask for his advice.

"it looks good to me, but here, stick this in." suo says, handing you a stick of butter, which sakura had to do a double take on to make sure it was just butter and not some other kind of stick.

then you helped prepare the frosting.

"it tastes amazing, suo!" you exclaimed, sampling the frosting.

"mind if i have a taste too?" suo said, leaning in closer. "of course, here, try it." you smiled and offered up the spoon to him.

"ah, you have some on you, here." he pointed at your hand, which had splashes of frosting on it which escaped the piping bag. "oh no, it squirted out. i'll just lick it off, then." you replied, smiling and darting out your tongue to taste the sweet frosting.

sakura was close to absolutely losing it because of you and suo's interactions.

lastly was assembling the cake.

"are you ready for this? it might get a bit messy." he asked you, as he brought the baking pan closer.

"it's alright. i know you will help me clean up the mess after!"

sakura's face turned as hot as the pre-heated oven as he listened in from the sidelines, feeling his face flush as he heard what sounded like a heated flirtatious exchange between you and suo.

sakura silently vowed never to help you two bake a cake ever again.

ʚɞ hiragi -

hiragi was always juggling so many responsibilities as one of the four kings of bofurin, that stress had become a constant companion, often forcing him to rely on his stomach medications just to get through the day.

so when you offered to give him a quick massage to ease his aching joints, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of relief.

you were very skilled with your fingers, expertly working out the tension in his shoulders, digging into every tight spot with just the right amount of pressure.

"ah, that feels so good." hiragi murmured, his voice heavy with relaxation.

"yeah? you like it there, 'ragi?" you teased, your fingers finding a particularly tight knot.

"mhm. that’s the spot..." he groaned, his eyes fluttering shut as he surrendered to the pleasure.

"you’re so stiff." you giggled, leaning in closer. "you really need to relax more often."

as the two of you were chilling in the cozy corner of pothos café, completely absorbed in the moment, across from you sat umemiya, who looked like he was about to choke on his food.

umemiya shot you both an incredulous look. "please, not in front of my salad!" he quipped, his tone half-joking, half-bewildered.

you glanced over at his plate, unable to suppress a laugh. "umemiya, your food isn’t even a salad!"

"yeah, well, it’s hard to focus on what i’m eating when you two are…whatever this is!" he shot back, rolling his eyes but unable to hide his amused smile.

hiragi opened one eye, as he shifted in his seat. "you seem tense. maybe you could use a massage too, umemiya."

umemiya quickly held up his hands in mock surrender. "nope, i’m good! you two just keep that over there, and leave my...omurice in peace! thank you!"

if only you could see what kind of face hiragi was making while you massaged him, his eyes fluttered closed while his brows knitted together in a moment of pure bliss, then maybe you would have choked on your omurice too.

Today's breakfast!

Vegan almond yogurt, carrot, and clemintine drink + pan-fried egg, steamed kale, sliced vegan bratwurst on a bed of rice!

Very rewarding meal, though I would have loved to have the drink and the food together lol. I forgot to prep and make the drink first, so I made and drank it afterward.

Wrt the drink, I cant quite call it a smoothie yet because I dont have ice and its just not the texture I want it at yet. It has very great flavor, especially the citrus zest; 2 clemintines with pulp amplified by twang of ginger root and a brightness of lemon juice (no cider this time! Didnt need it); lots of honey and carrot to add a tinge of particular sweetness.

BUT

I simply dont have the consistency I desire smdh. The lack of ice means theres less volume to the drink and its lack of viscosity makes the chunks of veggies (particularly the carrot) relatively unplesant in texture. I wouldnt mind said chunks and pieces if they were spread evenly in a smoothie. But alas lol.

Will definitely give the kale a break for more of this bright and healthy juice option!

Ingredients for the drink (no particular proportions; experimenting to taste)

2 clemintines with pulp ��

A handfull of baby carrots 🥕

A dash of lemon juice 🍋

A few dollops of vegan yogurt (unsweetened) 🍦

Small cut of fresh ginger root 🫚

LOTS of honey! 🍯

Now that I'm thinking about it, this entire drink would have been nice as is if I had some sort of mesh strainer to seperate the large chunks from the juice itself. That way, it could suffice without ice! 🧊 I def need to invest in one if I cant find one thrifted.

Onto the food!

Nothing too much to say here other than it was a great meal!

The egg was certainly more flavorful than last time, thought I admit it was a bit too much season salt lol. I cooked it last since I was right to remember that eggs cook in like 4 mins max lol. However, I accidentally skipped a step in remembering to heat up the pan with its oil before cracking the egg into it. So for several seconds the poor abortion remained clear and uncooked in the pan, sliding but not simmering. I thought i may have fluked the process again but I turned up the heat a bit and the egg bounced back, the whites appearing slowly as it actually simmered and cooked lol

The rice I simply made in my cute lil rice cooker (i should give it a name 🤔).

My mom got it for me when I was in college, considering I went vegan a few yrs prior, hadnt bought an [unlimited] meal plan at the dorm cafeteria, and may have had limited options (thankfully I didnt, eventually bought and u limited meal plan, and never needed to use the cooker living on campus. It became my ol-reliable later before I left though lol). Its a great cooker and can handle I believe up to around 1 or 1 1/2 cups of rice and its respective portions of water, which is plently for just me and usually enough for 2 servings. I use it almost daily when I cook so its def a staple tool in the kitchen I'm grateful to have. Thanks, mom! 💕

The kale I steamed in a pot with a lid and added a but of Lawry's season salt, a cap full of vinegar, and pepper. Simple yet flavorful. I love seeing the change of volume the kale undergoes as its steamed. A large portion of bright green, rubbery kale leaves that overfills the brim of the pan quickly shrivels into a manageable serving of jeep-green, seasoned kale, steamed to perfection (and much more pleasant to chew!). Speaking of kale transformations lol....

.... Ive had this batch of kale for going on 3 weeks now! I made a post about it before on my nature blog @happigreens (I'll transfer here eventually), but to condense it to the gist of this one, the salt bath i gave the kale was extremely helpful in extending the shelf life of the leaves. By now, theyre finally yellowing and some are wilting from dryness, but many still retain a crisp texture as if freshly harvested. I'll always soak kale leaves in saline water to preserve them! The kale in this meal didnt need that crispness necessarily, but the soaking probably retains its nutritional value for a lot longer, so thats definitely always important!

The brat I cooked the same as last time: pan fried! The brats are so good imo that they dont need any seasoning other than compatible cooking oil! Beyond Meat has some absolutely delish products. I just hope one day plant based products like that can be subsidized or something 😅. Also like before, the brat complimented the egg so well. I really didnt want any meat for this meal but craved the umami flavor combos I had with my last meal. Was not disappointed!

Ingredients for this meal included:

1 Beyond Sausage Brat Origianal link (pulled into pieces for a feeling of bigger portions lol)

1 egg (to be fried)

Like a big bowlfull of kale (again, no exact proportion here lol, but ut was a lot!)

Lawry's season salt (to season kale and egg to taste)

Pepper (for the kale and egg again)

A capful of vinegar (for the kale)

Olive and sesame oil (for pan-frying the egg and brat, and steaming the kale)

1 cup of rice (which take ~2 cups of water to cook)

9/10 It all came together for a great meal! :-)

Ironhide feels like he shouldn’t do this, but he couldn’t help himself. As he took a sip from his own drink, the mech began to notice some mannerisms from the arachnid whenever he replied. Blackarachnia’s secondary legs rustling, the sudden low volume of their voice, and the soft tremble of their digits as they grabbed the drink. Ironhide could assume one thing: they were nervous. Question is- nervous of what or who? Whatever it might be, it won’t be something that Ironhide can’t fix.

Then again— it might not be from nervousness. Blackarachnia is strong-willed despite thinking otherwise, so their frame language isn’t easy to read accurately on the first go. Perhaps he’ll ask them about it later, for now the arachnid spoke, and Ironhide listened carefully:

Ah, the prototype. It was true that the arachnid talks about this further in their private messages, but Ironhide doesn’t mind if they talk about it further once more. Like he has said occasionally, he may not understand it fully but he’s willing to sit down and listen. Well— he does that now. The old, slightly younger version of him wouldn’t do it for long. At least that part of him is dead, both figuratively and literally.

Ironhide hummed with amusement as he formed a half-smile, it was nice to know they are fond of Earth’s critters. If only he could remember more about his time back on that planet, it’s a blur.

“ Yea I feel you, it’s a pain not gettin’ a break when ya need it. “

His optics looked away to focus on his drink in which he began to sip for the second time. Afterwards— a smile. Ironhide caught the sight of Blackarachnia’s scarlet optics glancing right through his blue ones as she shot a smile. It may seem like nothing, but that expression made the mech’s spark flutter. Was there something they wanted to say? There’s so many possibilities, what will it be-

I’m glad we’re doing this, though.

It fluttered again. He’s heard this sentence many times, why was this so special for him to lose track of what troubled him? That is until he listened further. A comforting presence… that’s quite an achievement in trust. He was— glad. Ironhide’s gaze softened, now replying back after trying to figure out what to say next.

“ It’s nice knowin’ that, violet. Everyone deserves to have a lil’ time of peace… an’ I’m glad I’m— givin’ ya that. “

He almost broke the flow of his words. Keep it together, he demanded to himself. Perhaps one last sip of his half empty glass will help calm his nerves.

Oh wow, a rush of energy spread all throughout his frame. And a faded tint of blue appeared in his face plates— for a few seconds at least. A quick chuckle escaped from him, sounding like it was out of surprise after hearing their answer. Playing hard to get… is he really coming off like that? Ironhide could sense some subtlety in their words… hold on, were there any? Primus, he’s starting to overthink again. Any wordplay from Blackarachnia always made him conflicted on how to respond, in fear of assuming wrong.

“ Oh really? Guess I’ll keep ya anticipating often hehe— “

Scrap, could’ve said something better, he thought to himself.

He could easily respond back in the same tone, but not now. Or else they will go back and forth and he’ll forget about the two glasses of energon resting at his other side. Once the arachnid sat on the chair he offered, Ironhide gently passed one small glass towards their direction. It was a simple kind of energon drink. Ironhide never knew of Blackarachnia’s preferences when it came to engex so the mech played it safe.

His audials caught her question. As an answer, Ironhide shrugged his shoulders and shook his head. A smile curved his slightly scarred lips afterwards.

“ Nah, no complications. Thanks to you an’ Scalpel, this wound healed so fast it’s almost like it wasn’t there in the first place. Now I’m just doin’ what I usually do, security business, goin’ out for evening drives, you name it. But enough about me— what ‘bout you, ‘Nia? How’s life treatin’ ya? “

There was no need to make this conversation about his health, Ironhide wanted to know more about them. Because Blackarachnia was far more interesting unlike himself. Ironhide was a plain old soldier with an important duty- nothing else. As for Blackarachnia— violet, they were a scientist with a marvelous way of using their words, just like his other smart friends who he spent time with. Ironhide didn’t care that the arachnid is a decepticon. Nobody should care, these badges shouldn’t hold such social power anymore. Sadly, the war may be over, but it isn’t for a good portion of cybertronians. They don’t express it as violently anymore, but prejudices remain.

Blackarachnia doesn’t show that prejudice, which was a relief for his spark. These problems may still linger, but they give him hope that the past will soon be the past. A past that Cybertron as a whole, will bury and set to rest.

volume 6 lads

from what i remember this one is similar to 4 in that it gives us a bit of an emotional break

don’t get me wrong i know there’s some stuff but i think overall it’s a little less intense

- ahhhh they’re all fighting together againnn it feels so right

- hey. hey yang and blake. i’m gonna need you to stop. cause my little heart can’t take it

- this dude really was challenged once and had a full blown murder tantrum. that’s fragility my guy

- ruby is SO CUTE look at her little happy face

- oh yeah. take a train. you guys have a great track record with trains

- i also keep getting like three versions of the same ad about getting vaccinated and it’s got all these workers from tv & movie sets and it’s so awkward this one guy looks so annoyed during his whole part

- it’s not just the turrets y’all oz is withholding shit once again

- don’t fuckin shove my boy!!

- i love that qrow immediately steps back when ruby comes forward. like he 100% respects not only her authority as a team leader but also her ability to solve situations and talk to people. he knows man. he knows his niece is something else

- MARIAAAAA MY GIRLL YES

- uh oh the train crashed. who could’ve seen that coming

- cinder really is just too angry and spite filled to die isn’t she

- hehe maria you’re funny

- it’s so funny that oz is still refusing to tell them everything knowing that everything is revealed in the next episode

- oh oz. i know he was your friend. but all these kids saw was the insane amount of harm and death he caused. trying to defend him to them is not gonna go well

- oscaarrr i love you!! you’re so good!!

- oooo chills

- uuugghh i love jinn she’s so cool

- oz. my dude. the ship has sailed. you can’t stop this anymore

- this, my friends, is what we call a lore episode

- this whole sequence gives me chills it’s so gooood

- eurgh i hate how the god of darkness moves like i get it it’s part of the aesthetic but you really don’t need to do that it’s creepy

- salem was so smart to use a super powerful sibling rivalry to get what she wanted

- she really didn’t deserve to watch the love of her live just get revived and killed over and over again

- jeez the gods are assholes. they’re all oooohh maintain balance and then they torture a woman who just wanted her husband back by making her live forever. for what??? for daring to be smart?? ugh

- c’mon gods you gotta respect the hustle

- you think that making someone immortal will make them realize the importance of life and death?? idiots

- god her face

- she’s so smart what the FUCK

- “the hearts of men are easily swayed” really reminds me of galadriel’s “the hearts of men are easily corrupted” in lotr

- a couple hundred humans attack them and the god of darkness decides “you know what? i’m gonna eliminate all of humanity. that feels like the right choice. yeah. i feel good about this.”

- the fact that salem wasn’t even like… a real villain until she tried to kill herself in order to escape her torture and suffering and the grimm juice made her Big Mad

- like it wasn’t even her, it was the grimm juice. i really do believe that without that she wouldn’t have become salem the Villain

- i’m sorry i don’t know a ‘deathly hallows’ i only know the relics

- ohhh fuck i forgot about this!!! oh rwby’s totally gonna end with the gods judging humanity when the relics are brought together. maybe not end end but it’s definitely gonna be close to the end and it’ll be a Big Thing where they strategize about how to convince the gods that humanity is good

- obviously the first maidens weren’t their kids but boy is there a theme going on here. and maybe even something plot relevant cause their kids could do magic

- all the main characters being able to witness this and us seeing their reactions is such a good touch like god, the impact of this reality is so much heavier because we get to see the characters actually affected by it react to watching it unfold before them

- ohhh my boy. you didn’t deserve this burden before but now that you know fully what it means you really don’t deserve it. i mean look at him!!!

- oh qrow!!! you are doing good! i mean i get it, your whole world’s been shattered and the man you gave your life to lied to you about a lot of important shit but you are doing good i promise!!

- fuck yeah maria use your sassy wise old lady authority

- oh god emerald you poor thing you’re just a babey— oh god i felt salem’s hand on emerald’s shoulder fuck dude this show is so effective

- truly, this is a master class in manipulation

- uh oh salem your ex is back

- UH OH ITS THE FARM RUN YALL

- i like that weiss is wearing what looks like very thin tights, a strapless dress, a lil jacket thing, and the animators said “here she’s got a scarf she’s warm now”

- ruby didn’t kill torchwood y’all, he got chomped. like a lil bitch

- oh god this episode

- yaaaayyy

- before this episode my friend went “you ready for some horror?” and was grinning

- oh yeeeaaah the corpses. lovely

- god as soon as they opened the door to where the cellar entrance is it immediately started affecting weiss

- oh the DOOR nope no thank you get the fuck OUT

- watching this show with my friend was also the origin of me being sad cause this shit is sad and her going “oh i’m having a great time” and this episode in particular she was enjoying herself WAY TOO MUCH if you ask me

- little jump scares kept getting me and she LAUGHED and said “that got you?!?” YES it DID i’m a WUSS

- oh the journals!!! the way they incorporated that was so interesting and added SUCH good creepiness and suspense without giving it all away or ramping it up too fast

- ruby’s so good i love her!!

- uuugghh it’s getting them already how haven’t they noticed???

- the eyes got me good the first time

- their weird fuckin attitudes were the creepiest part of this episode

- ruby said not my friends you bitches

- mariaaaa i love you you’re so smart

- god when they’re reading from the journal at the very end…

- neo’s so tiny!!

- talk about some girlbosses

- MARIAAAAA YOURE SUCH A BADASS i love her backstory

- love her outfit too

- OOOO THE FUCKIN CROCODILE CLOCK LADY ooooo this is so cooooool

- the ticking!!!!

- oh maria you poor thing. but also you’re so smart like that was such a good move

- aww haha qrow’s a fan. awww he based his weapon off hers!! we love a fanboy

- “i wanted to be as good as the grimm reaper.” “well, im nothing but a disappointment, so you’re well on your way” DAMN MARIA SAVAGE

- oh nice they made to argus! NOW SHOW ME THE BABY

- jaune… my boy… i know you’re angry but oscar is really trying his best

- “i don’t know anything” me neither ruby

- wait cinder didn’t have her grimm arm yet so how did ruby’s ability trigger?

- uh oh my boy’s missing

- remember when you were having fun being the bad guy emerald. remember that. it’s almost like… it was only fun for you cause cinder was there

- it makes me so sad that not only did emerald actually believe that cinder cared about her, but she actually considered cinder family and her emotional health was so connected to cinder being there

- “all you ever learned was pain and violence and now you’re too afraid to leave it” tyrian excuse me i’m the one with the commentary and analysis that’s rude stay in your lane

- oh god oh fuck. the pyrrha statue is comin up isn’t it

- AH FUCK THE LEAF

- their willingness to keep fighting and risk their lives and also a Ruby Speech(TM) made cordo believe in them which i love

- i love jinn she likes lil ruby and her friends

- hi summerrrr

- cordoooo i’m so proud of you. she gave up part of this insane symbol of atlas’s power to help ruby and her friends. like she put aside her own ego and i’m so proud of her

- fuck yeah!!!

- awww such a good uncle

- damnnn atlas is gorgeous

- even mercury is terrified by salem’s weird grimm shit

- the fuckin wicked witch with her flying gorillas

FNAF DCA Slime Rancher AU

*cracks knuckles, squints at my dashboard and blows*

*hacks up half a lung at the sheer volume of dust flying in my face*

SO, we live :3 and have been watering the brain worm garden, writing… elsewhere that isn’t here and is our Ao3 as well as the uh, *glances at pileup of unfinished works in Google Docs* … actually, ignore that.

At the request of the lovely @sinnabee after watching her stream Slime Rancher 2, here is our list of I guess headcanons that we’ll more than likely end up writing at least a few scenes for :p

Also, Sun and Moon slimes from Sinna!!

Sun slimes:

Has lil nubbin hands to wave and pat things and hold on to Moony fins

Is friendly and vegetarian, fav foods are either heart beets cause they’re full of love or pogofruit cause in the wild they’re the most unproblematic things next to Pink slimes

Has gummy teeth that couldn’t even bruise you if they tried, they just end up harmlessly nomming away

Their rays are soft and very bendy

Will get along with any slime except Ringtails (they turn to stone in the sun and Sun is sad about their very presence freezing their new friends, so they try to bring apology snacks to the statues but as soon as they hop away, the Ringtails make a swift exit-stage-right)

Is infatuated with chickadees (cause Babey Birbs) and will protect them from Tarrs by swallowing as many of them as possible and regurgitating them in a safe place when the coast is clear

Will use their friendliness to their advantage if their Moon is hurt e.g. is so friendly that they can roll up and swallow a hen or two without scaring the rest of the nest, then bring them back to feed their Moon, wherever they’re hiding

Will also protect their Moon by luring threats away and close to a cliff before knocking them off and into the blimey deep (ehehe the slimey deep of the Slime Sea, ahem anyway) below, has absolutely no morality issue with doing this even to another slime or a human they’ve never met before

Suns are usually harmless, but if they're particularly excited or angry, their touch will burn

Their slime is also flammable and can stick to other slimes, but slides right off Moons

Moon slimes:

Have fins and a light like Anglers, slightly more dexterous front fins to hold on to Sun nubbins

Eats meat, but will help their Sun get food, even scaring off other slimes when their Sun isn’t looking to secure food (and only when their Sun isn’t looking cause otherwise they would get an earful to “be nice”. Pft, like being nice gets their Sunny the best food like they deserve)

Also brings their Sun wild honey as a treat

Does not get along with Anglers (they get jealous if their Sun interacts with an Angler, also the Angler's light hurts their eyes), Ringtails or Hunters (because they’re cheeky little sh-)

They have Teeth™ and will use them to protect themselves and their Sun

Their light also hypnotises other slimes and chickens, but Suns are immune to it. It makes a little jingling sound when the hypnosis is in effect

Will go toe to toe (or blob to blob I guess-) with Tarrs, especially if their Sun is in danger with them

Are extremely stealthy, especially at night.

Is it part of their hypnotism or do they have something in common with Hunters? Viktor would like to know, but when he caught a pair, they were gone the next morning with a note in the corral that just said “better luck next time :p”

He spent the day hypothesising (read: having a minor mental breakdown scientific thought block) how in the hell they 1. managed to escape without breaking anything or setting off his alarms and 2. wrote. In readable English. Even BOb’s communications weren’t nearly as neat.

Facts about both:

They spawn together in pairs and only have the one pairing their entire lives

Rarely spotted, they seem to come and go and at most two pairs have ever been spotted at any one time, always in Starlight Strand

If you catch one but not the other, they will cry constantly (think sadge hungry boi and 'oshit there's a Tarr' sounds) and try to escape until they’re reunited in the same pen or free roam, not just adjacent pens. They will always be drawn to each other, so to find/lure their other half, just walk away with one in the Vacpack and the other will follow

Moon would try to free Sun by biting you and Sun will burn you if they bounce into you, so keep enough Vacpack space free for both

If an unpaired Moon is in a pen, they will start chewing through the corral walls. They’re smart enough to figure out that going for the barrier directly like other slimes do is much more difficult than attacking the barrier generator pillars which are much more solid than straining against a slippery forcefield

If an unpaired Sun is in a pen, a good chunk of your ranch may start to burn. I hope you have fire suppression and a good stain cleaner cause those burn marks aren’t coming out easy. Anything a distressed Sun touches will burn and the metal of your corral wall pillars is not heat proof

Even though Suns are so trusting and friendly, Moons are a lot less so, especially towards ranchers

They're smart enough to figure out that slimes disappearing into the suction tube and seldom being spit back out is Bad

Meanwhile Suns just want affection, trying to boop the rancher as soon as their Moon looks away cause Moon would try to nudge them away and scare/bite the rancher

Ogden swore he once saw a sick Sun, Viktor corroborated his account when he went to investigate and was attacked by an unnaturally dull and dark Sun. Unfortunately, he failed to capture it and when he returned with better equipment, it was gone. No one has seen it since, although Viktor hypothesised that it was a virus that could potentially spread to its Moon counterpart

What he actually saw was a Solar, a Sun which had forever lost its Moon for some unknown reason

Lunars are Moons that have lost their Suns, but no one in the community on the Range has ever seen one

If one is fired into the other with a Vacpack, they will form an Eclipse largo

(from left to right: Moon slime, Sun slime, Eclipse largo)

Eclipse largos:

Because of the velocity requirement (aka basically has to be yeeted together with considerable force, there's no need for them to combine in the wild), Eclipse largos are considered rancher-made instead of naturally-transforming by eating plorts like other largos

As a fusion of the two, they have the combined memories and personalities of Sun and Moon. As such, it is recommended to first gain the trust of and build a relationship with both slimes before fusing them or the resultant Eclipse may be difficult to manage

It’s not hard to have a decent relationship with Sun, but if you didn’t have one with Moon before fusion, you might find yourself nursing your wounds post-spontaneous bite in the middle of pets. Eclipse’s teeth are much, much worse than a cat’s nibblers

They hate being confined to a corral, much preferring to patrol the ranch instead

If the ranch is safe and nothing escaped, there is a chance they will unfuse at dawn and dusk. The chance that they unfuse is much higher if they leave the ranch at these times

They will herd loose slimes into the nearest corral, although occasionally this results in them getting themself stuck until the rancher frees them or they wreck the corral, whichever comes first

If they spot a Tarr, they will fight it by dragging it around with their teeth until it beats a hasty retreat or using its tentacles to throw it into the nearest body of (unoccupied by Puddles) water

They are also sometimes seen just staring into the distance at or near the edge of the ranch, always towards the East

You are not going to be able to force them to go anywhere, they are large and in charge. If you try to, you’re at a high risk of getting yourself or your Vacpack crushed between those dagger teeth

Luring them back to the ranch with the promise of cuddles, a honey-baked hen, cubed cubefruit and a water lettuce salad to wash it all down hasn’t failed yet

They will eat anything, including other slimes although genus cannibalism isn't going to be their first choice

Has there been recorded history of an Eclipse eating tech or a rancher? Viktor might have the answer to the former, but as for the latter… there are no living witnesses. Key word, living. And if the Far Far Range saw one unnamed rancher with a bad reputation gradually lose his slimes and disappear, no one saw anything

Eclipses may not have nubbins, but they can produce long tentacles that appear dark orange in the day and dark blue at night

Those tentacles would be warm or cool to the touch depending on Eclipse’s mood

Overall, not much is really known about them within the community of the Far, Far Range besides for rare sightings, but every time someone manages to capture a Sun or Moon, they escape the next day with an unsigned note left in the corral. Even Viktor’s surveillance tech hadn’t managed to catch the intruder’s identity, but he has footage of a tall figure in a dark cloak walking into his lab in the middle of the night and hacking into the containment unit he had the Sun and Moon in. The slimes hopped out of the open door and the figure looked straight at the camera, holding up a slim finger to their face with the faint glint of teeth and a glowing red eye in the shadow of their cloak as they held up the note, dropping it on the ground before the camera feed got corrupted.

#fnaf #fnaf daycare attendant #slime rancher au #sun #moon #as slimey bois #but also mystical slime ranchers somewhere out in the ether #oh don’t worry we will be addressing that #although whether in thought dump format or Ao3 scenes/oneshots/series remains to be seen #thought dump #have fun sinna :3 #Wilderness brain worm garden

You and Reiner getting to see your kid in their first holiday play, which Reiner treats like a red carpet event. And your child just lights up when they see you guys in the crowd and can't help waving and shouting "Daddy! Daddy! Hi, Daddy!"

THE PTERODACTYL CRY I JUST MADE!!!

Jumpin over to my inbox to see this right after reading those gloriously filthy and smutty jjk text imagines and getting assaulted with this adorable freakin image has me in feeeeeelings whiplash.

Gosh. Reiner is so flippin excited for your kiddo! They're part is something really small, like a dancing snowflake that just skips across the stage at a couple key points with some other skipping snowflakes, but Reiner has been hyping them up ever since they learned they got the part!

And you can bet your ass he's found a way to be there for all the practices he's allowed to be at, and volunteered for every set building day there was! Hell, if they'd needed him to sew all the costumes himself he woulda found a way! Luckily, the school's arts department is nicely funded.

Kiddo knows they're not supposed to break character. But they can't help but wave and call out to Reiner when they see him and you there in the front rows. You have to take over filming on the phone Rei was holding because he's gone all weepy and must wave back at his lil ice fractal with BOTH HANDS DANG IT!

Of course everyone in the audience can't help but do a collective "awwwww" because they're beings with hearts and emotions. And after the play is over all the kiddos line up side-by-side for their big bow. Your lil snowflake is beaming so bright!

Reiner's large hands are probably creating half the volume of thunderous applause that's erupted from the audience. When the house lights come up he's already moved to the front of the stage so your lil darling one can hop off right into his massive arms for a tight hug and twirl. Glitter from their costume is shedding all over his dark navy blazer and crisp white buttondown but that isn't something he'd care about any other time and certainly not in the middle of this momentous occassion!

He's heaping on the praises as you walk over with a bouquet of winter pansies snuggled among many colorful towers of snapdragons and nemesia. You can't bare to breakapart the affectionate display, even though you'd like to be part of that love huddle. Luckily your sweetheart finally catches sight of you and Reiner steadies your kiddo with one arm while reaching to tug you into the snuggle fest with the other.

#i just want this life dude #😭😭😭😭😭😭😭#i dont want babies in real life but dangit if i dont wanna have a whole brood with all my blorbos #reiner x reader #nat writes #nonnie #answered asks #reiner braun #papa rei #another moment of my thoughts running away with me!

Xavier Thorpe x Male reader

Angst to fluff typa thing where xavier and m/n get into an argument which leads to M/N leaving and talking a walk in the dark woods (its night out) but m/n gets attacked by the hyde pretty badly and leaves him there in the forest (his legs are hurt pretty badly) and hes left there until the morning when xavier finds him unconscious while out on a run. It ends with m/n waking up and with fluff and xavier constantly apologizing to him :D

“Are you serious right now? Me and Ajax?!” You yelled. At this point, it was just ridiculous. Lately, Xavier has been very jealous and clingy. At first, you saw the behavior as kinda cute but then he started going too far. He was practically suffocating you in his love and not in a good way. However, today he accused you of something extremely surprising.

“Yes, Ajax! Did you think I wouldn’t recognize the way you look at him?!” Xavier sounded ridiculous. You couldn’t contain your laugh any longer. He had to be joking right? You kept laughing at this until you saw his stone-cold face. “Oh my god, your serious.” You stopped.

“Very. The sexual tension you two have been radiating for a week is insane.” You couldn’t help but scoff at this. Xavier was being serious, extremely. “I’m not doing this right now.” You walked towards his bed to grab your stuff. “[Name] you’re not leaving in the middle of an argument. You have no right. Where are you even going.” Xavier threw his arms up in defeat. “I don’t know. Might go fuck Ajax, who knows?!” You yelled back and slammed the door.

_________The Woods__________

You walked along the old trails of the woods. The sun lowered itself into the sky. Your music was blasting at full volume. How could Xavier even think you could cheat on him? Especially with Ajax, your best friend, out of all people. The sound of leaves rustling behind brought you out of your thoughts. You looked behind you and saw nothing so just ignored it.

You kept to the trail until you felt someone following you. You walked a little faster towards nevermore. Then you heard a deep growl come behind you. You didn’t want to ask questions so you took off running toward the woods. Your vampire speed came in handy. You stopped at a small river stream obviously out of breath. Then, you heard the sound of a few twigs breaking.

You pushed out your fangs, ready to fight. You saw the beast coming full speed at you. Luckily you were fast enough to dodge the hit. You could’ve run away (and now looking back you should’ve) but you needed to blow off some steam and what’s a better way of doing that than kicking a monster’s ass?

You dodged another hit of the monster’s claws not excepting it to use its other to slash your leg. “FUCK!” You screamed as your body hit the ground. Your fingers brushed against the open slash on your thighs. Why weren’t you healing? You should’ve been healed by now. The monster’s claws were rushing toward your face next but you dodged it. You jumped on its back clinging to it. You released your fangs into its neck. It let out a loud growl, grabbed you by the neck, and threw you towards a tree, hitting your back. “Fuck.” You whined.

The sharp pain from both attacks sent a shock through your body. You couldn’t keep fighting, hell you could barely even walk. The monster walked towards you, grabbing you by the neck and pushing you against the tree. Your leg ached for medical attention and your back screamed for the nice feel of You and Xavier’s bed. Xavier. Oh no, you were going to die with your last words to Xavier being about fucking your best friend. Your mind flashed to images of Xavier being the one to stumble upon your lifeless body. The thought of it sent a tear running down your face. You couldn’t die yet, not now at least.

You took hold of the monster's arm making sure to tighten your grip around it. Than pushed its claw away from your bruised neck. A new fire erupted inside of you. You used your one good leg to kick it across the small stream. It dropped you to the ground with a loud thud, you gasped for air. You looked towards it to see it was running the opposite way. You let out a laugh mixed with happiness and relief. Then the pain shocked back thru your body. You lay on your back staring at the night sky. Life was slowly fading out of you and all you could think about was Xavier. His smile, his hair, his adorable small dimples that showed up when he smiled, and his drawings.

You smiled as all the beautiful memories you made with him flashed thru your brain. Your hands found their way to the necklace you both share. Smiling as your eyes gave into the darkness.

Your eyes slowly opened to the bright sun rays aiming straight toward you. You looked around to take in your surroundings. Then made an abrupt stop when the aching of your head got a little too harsh. You heard the door open and looked up to see Xavier. He looked like he hadn’t slept in hours, and his hair was a mess. He even looked like he was crying.

Xavier's facial expression softened at the sight of you being up. He dropped his newly bought chips and tackled you in a hug. “I swear I’m never arguing with you again. I’m so sorry, I thought I lost you. I’m so sorry baby.” He cried. You slowly hugged him back. You both stayed like that for a while, enjoying each other’s presence. “I love you, Xavier.” He smiled. That was your first time saying I love you. “I love you too.” You smiled and kissed him but stopped when there was a knock on the door.

“Sorry to interrupt.” Tyler apologized as he sat his get-well-soon balloons with the others. “How are you feeling?” He asked. Tyler was a close friend/coworker of yours so you appreciate the caring act. “Thank you.” Tyler nodded his head. “Oh also here’s a cup of coffee. I thought you’ll probably want one.” You laughed at the thought since you were craving coffee. “Thank- fuck.” You cussed as the Frappé slipped from your hands. “I’ll go get the janitor.” Xavier stood from his seat and walked out.

Tyler went into the bathroom in your room to get some napkins. As he went to clean up the mess you recognize the two bite marks on his neck. “Tyler how’d you get those?” You asked as you reached out to touch it. He quickly took a step back and covered them. “Some kid threw something at me.” He answered. You gave him a suspicious look but before you could ask him a question Xavier walked in. “No janitor so I guess we have to clean it ourselves.” He said. Tyler looked between the two guys. “I have an early shift gotta go. I’m happy your okay [name].” He smiled but it seemed wicked.

“You ok [name]?” Xavier asked. You quickly responded with a head shake. “Of course.”
