link: what's this about?

revali: hang on, you two can come out now

[ two light blue feathered rito fledglings poke their heads out from their hiding spot ]

link: ... are they- are they mine?

revali: what? no!.. but we're going to circle back to you thinking that's a possibility 🤨

anon i sincerely hope you submitted this to that revalink incorrect quotes account already HAHAHA because this is perfect for them

i know this is referencing that one spiderman comic panel and have no other background context to it, but the idea of revali harboring baby ritos that have both his and link's traits and characteristics is so 🥺🥺🥺 doesn't know where they came from, but his mama bird instinct reacts and now he needs to protect the babies with his life 😔

Hi, I’m not sure if your requests are open at the moment, but I figured I’d try anyway!

Would you be willing to write about Stucky and their little having a day out together? Like going to the zoo, the aquarium, or perhaps go swimming? Whatever you feel like writing is fine, even it is an entirely different activity!

I absolutely adore your work, so I can’t wait to see where you will take this idea 🩷

summary: your daddies take you on a trip to the aquarium

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ ⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ ⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆

“Woah, woah! Slow your roll, fish patrol.”

“There’s no time, Baba! We have to go the ‘quarium!” It was almost unreal how quickly you were moving while simultaneously not getting any closer to the front door. You were running out to the car when Bucky stopped you with a grip on the back of your jacket. That didn’t stop you from jogging midair, though.

“Ah-quarium.” He plopped you onto the small bench in the entryway. “And I’m pretty sure there’s enough time for you to at least put on some shoes before we leave the house.”

Bucky kneeled in front of you so he could help you get on a pair of sneakers. He made sure to double knot the laces, knowing that you would have no patience for getting your shoes retied today.

“Dada! Are you almost ready?!” you shouted down the hall.

Steve sped walked out of your room with a backpack of stuff. “Almost! There’s a lot to pack for a full day out of the house.”

You whined and tried stomping your feet, forgetting that Bucky was still putting on your shoes.

“Hey, no whining and no kicking Baba,” Steve reprimanded. “We’ll get there with plenty of time to spare, baby. The fish aren’t going to swim away.”

“They might,” Bucky teased.

“Nooooo!”

“Buck, c’mon.”

Bucky grinned mischievously and gave you ticklish kisses on your face before helping you off the bench. “I’m only kidding, angel. Let’s get you in the car and buckled up while we wait for Dada.”

After what felt like a million hours, you were finally at the aquarium. Your daddies went over some safety rules while you were still in the car and once you showed that you understood, it was go time.

There were so many exhibits to discover. The tanks seemed to go on forever, all with different species of fish, snails, crabs, turtles, and other animals that you’d never seen before.

The aquarium offered something for the whole family. Still a science nerd, Bucky enjoyed reading the information cards placed by the tanks. Some of the animals and their habits reminded him so much of the aliens he read about in his sci fi novels. Steve was keeping a mental note of the animals he wanted to draw for you later. He even took pictures of a few to serve as a reference. Meanwhile, you practically had your nose pressed on the glass, just admiring the fish with an overwhelming sense of wonder.

When you saw something especially cool, you’d tug on the sleeve of your nearest daddy and point. You couldn’t just witness something so special and not share it. One of the best moments was when you pointed out a scuba diver in the large tank to your Dada. The diver noticed you and started a game of rock, paper, scissors through the glass.

One of the safety rules for the day was that you had to either wear a leash backpack or hold a daddy’s hand the whole time. In the beginning, you chose to hold hands, but then you switched to the backpack for more freedom(and because your daddies either walked too slowly or had no idea which tanks were ones to stop and stare at and which ones just needed a quick glance).

You could’ve stayed at the aquarium forever, but eventually it was time to go home. Steve and Bucky could tell you were getting sleepy. You got a little more clumsy, often getting tangled in your backpack leash, and asked them to hold you more often. Your daddies suspected that some of the requests to be carried had nothing to do with needing to see from a higher point, and much to do with your tired legs.

“This was the last tank, bubba. Now we’re going to the gift shop and then going home, okay?” Steve said.

You sighed. “Okay, Dada. Can I take a picture of the jellyfish first? Please?”

“Yes you can, baby. Good manners.” Steve held you still while you took a photo of the jellyfish tank with your camera.

As the three of you went to the gift shop, you asked Bucky to hold your camera so you could hold your hands behind Steve’s neck and place your head on his shoulder. He of course said yes. Your Baba also snapped a sneaky shot of Steve carrying sleepy little you using your camera.

You were practically already dozing off by the time you made it to the gift shop, but your daddies still went in and asked if you wanted anything to remember this trip by. You ended up leaving with a beluga whale plush, which you cuddled with the entire way home.

Hey babes!

I've got an idea if you want to write about it.

How about TF141 + los vaqueros + könig meets fem reader's family and her nephew (could be a toddler or pre schooler) grabs her breasts or sucks on them (like babies do).

How do you think they'd react?

I think Ghost would be like "Hands off kid, those are mine." 😁😁😁

Can you write this please. 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Okay it has been a long, long time since I've been around a kiddo that young. So we're gonna do this headcanon style because that is the only way to fit all of those guys in lol

Ghost:

Honestly he remembers when his nephew was that little

The sight of you carrying the little one makes his heart clench and his knees a little weak

But it also makes him a little bit terrified

He grumbles good-naturedly about it but at least half of the grumbling is to hide his feelings

Definitely jokes that he could do that for you too

Price:

Probably doesn't bring it up

He does watch you with the kid but he is not all that comfortable around kids

He's had very little experience with mini humans so he keeps a bit of distance

Might grumble about the kid grabbing you but also it's a small child, no harm done

After kiddo is gone back to his parents or to bed or whatever he does check on you to make sure you're fine

Gaz:

Thinks its adorable

Look, tiny human trusts you!

Also tiny human has great taste, which is a joke he makes with a big wink to you, because he loves to make you laugh

But seeing you with the small child definitely makes him think

He's not opposed to kids, hadn't given it too much thought before you

But seeing you with this kid? Seeing you play and have fun and be so patient with the little one?

Now he's having thoughts

Soap:

Look. This man wants kids. He wants a whole soccer team

So the sight of you with this kid? Ramps up that longing to 11

Watches the entire time you're with the kid, observing how you are

Later murmurs that you'd be a great mom, you're so patient

And he'd be happy to contribute to that venture

The two of you definitely end up tumbling to the nearest private (ish) space to, ahem, discuss the matter 😏

Alejandro and Rodolfo

I'm putting these two together because I think they'd react basically the same way

Neither of them are phased at all

They probably have nieces and nephews of their own

Personally I think Ale is an oldest child and Rudy is a middle child

And even if they don't have nieces and nephews of their own, they've mentally adopted all of Los Vaqueros and their families

They are honorary uncles to SO MANY kids

Seriously

So the sight of the little one grabbing you? Barely registers with them

Maybe if you'd been discussing kids with one of them, they'd tease you a bit

Or if the kid grabbed too hard and you winced, they'd be right there

Offering to take the kid, give you a break, etc

König

He blushes. A lot. Red from the tips of his ears all the way down his neck

Tries not to look

Looks anyway

Definitely the one to check in and make sure you're okay, even if he trips over his own tongue

If you need a break from the kid, he's running to grab someone

Does not trust himself to hold such a small child

He's so big and the child is so tiny and he doesn't want to hurt the kid

Eventually he will ask if you want kids, because he's not convinced one way or the other and he hasn't been able to stop wondering since he saw you with the kid

Hi again!!! 👋👋👋

Do you still taking requests? If you do, can I request Yan! Seth and Yan! Horus with Fem! Reader as Muichiro Tokito from Demon Slayer?

Like reader is the Goddess of Freedom and youngest child of Ra and favorite as well.

And Reader still have some problems with their memories but remembering Seth's name and showing some favoritism to him (Like Muichiro with Tanjiro)

(If you don't write for Ennead anymore, can I request it with Ror then? Characters of your choice)

You are free to ignore it if you want!!!! Have a good day/night ❤️❤️

Sure! And yea I still do ennead! This might be short as I’ve been busy, and been in other fandoms and trying to make a oneshot or something by myself again since I haven’t done that in a while and I have so many ideas so I probably won’t be able to do my usual 7 paragraph post for this cause of that 😅 if I do then nice, if I don’t then sorry about that. I’ll be doing it together as you never said separate or not and you kinda never replied to if it was or not 😅.

Warning: noob author, female reader, yandere characters, and others.

Characters: Seth, and Horus.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You’re the youngest goddess of ra, the goddess of freedom and memories (decided to add that cause of irony 🤭), even though you’re the goddess of memories you tend to forget a lot.

You’d forget who ra was, the other gods and goddesses, your siblings, and many other things like your duty as a goddess that you needed to be supervised from muat or Bastet to help you remember, though when they’re busy they would send Seth.

Surprisingly you always remembered Seth no matter how many days it’s been since he last visited you to help you; not willingly help you though over time that does change.

Seth at first was angry that he had to babysit a grown goddess just cause she can’t remember well to save her life, he would always pout and sulk about how he had more important things to do than babysitting you but soon that changed after you told him one day that you would be training.

That surprised Seth as he had never heard about you being able to fight and such so he decided to be your training partner, he was also surprised that you had remembered him since he first came and help(babysit) you

You had met Horus when he was a kid; specifically when he went to Seth’s temple which you were there to have company with as after a while between you and Seth you started going to his temple. You had easily forgotten about Horus as Seth distracted you long enough to forget about Horus but he never forgot about you.

When it was the trail Horus noticed how you acted between Seth and the other gods and goddesses including your mother, at first he was jealous as you never remembered him but he knew why as he also liked Seth even though he shouldn’t.

(A/n: ok! Done! 😁 hope yall like it! Also lol sorry it’s more Seth than Horus I just had more thought to work with for him than Horus I guess 😅 also sorry if sorry if you wanted it separate I wanted to have this out soon since I have been busy and kinda procrastinating a bit as I’ve been in the svsss/life at the moment lol, anyway hope yall have a wonderful day/event/night!

Hi there! I was wondering if I could request some of your amazing headcanons? How would Easy Company react to you telling them that you can't have kids/can't have a family with them? Totally okay if you don't feel comfortable with it. Thank you either way, and have a great day! 😁♥️

Easy co. reacting to you not wanting/not being able to have children.

BoB masterlist

Dick Winters: When you break the news to him, the first thing he’s doing is making sure you are okay. It probably took a lot to tell him, especially if you and he both wanted kids. “Well, are you alright?” He might feel a little sad at first but he quickly changes his perspective on it. As long as you aren’t saddened by it then he isn’t either. Besides he knows there are probably tons of little ones in the adoption system that could use an amazing home like yours and his.

Lewis Nixon: “That’s all right, doll.” When you tell him he's very soft and understanding around you. It doesn’t bother him one bit that you can’t have kids. If you really wanted them though, he would comfort you for as long as you needed. If kids weren’t something you really wanted anyway he would still make sure and ask if you were alright. He tries his best to make some positive of the situation by saying stuff like, “Well at least we won’t be having to change blowout diapers or swim in college debt anytime soon.”

Carwood Lipton: “Oh honey, I'm sorry.” The first thing he’s doing when you tell him the news is wrapping you up in a big warm hug. Whether you wanted kids or not, he's going to be comforting you and making sure that you are okay no matter what. He would be a little sad just because he would love to have family with you, but he knows IVF and surrogacy are options also, plus adoption. If you didn’t want kids at all he would 100% support your decision, he just wants you to be happy.

Joe Toye: When you let him know that you aren’t able to have kids, he’s honestly crushed. He would never tell you that or show that to you, but he dreams of having a family with you. (Mans literally forgot adoption was a thing) He wants to console you by gifting you a bunch of things or taking you on lots or dates, just to take your mind off of it. He loves you so much, having kids doesn’t even really matter when it comes down to it. As long as he’s your man, he’s happy.

Joe Liebgott: He knows if he’s sad about the news, you would be sad too, even more than he was. “It’s alright sweet thing. I’ll always be here for you.” If you really wanted kids he would remind you that you guys still could have a perfect little family together, surrogacy or adoption are both great options. He reminds you over and over again that there was nothing you or could change about it and you are completely perfect the way you are.

Bill Guarnere: In his way of thinking, he would rather have his significant other and no kids, than kids and no significant other. He would hate to ever lose you in any way. So when you tell him that you can’t have kids it doesn’t affect your relationship with him a whole lot. As long as you are okay with it, then he is okay with it too. If you were saddened by it he would hold you and tell you everythings gonna be okay, “We’re gonna figure this out honey, don’t worry.”

George Luz: He wraps you up in a big hug when you tell him. This sweet baby doesn’t even really understand the details of it all, but he knows that he’s gonna love you matter what, kids or not. He would choose you over and over again even if kids were off the table. If children was something you wanted I think he would kinda be like nix, saying stuff like, “Well at least we won’t have to stay up all night with screaming and dirty diapers?” He tries to make everything as positive as possible. He’s gonna love you no matter what.

Bull Randleman: “Well how do you feel about all this?” He kinda bases his emotions on what you’re feeling at the moment and if you’re okay with no kids or if you aren’t. He would feel sad only a little at first but then he realizes you guys could always adopt and isn’t really sad after that. He is the sweetest guy ever about the whole thing. He just wants to hold you and promise you that everything will and is going to be okay. “It’s all gonna work itself just out, don’t worry about you and me sweetheart.”

Eugene Roe: Gene is kinda similar to Winters in this case. In his way of thinking, he took vows to love you and be there for you no matter what. He would never think of you any differently. He just wants to make sure you are alright about the whole thing. “I’m sorry. Cheri. Is there anything I can do?” If you are sad he will do just about anything to make you feel better, he loves you so much.

Floyd Talbert: “It’s okay Angel, everything is gonna be okay.” I think when you tell him he wouldn’t be sad or anything, mostly just surprised. He wants to make sure you aren’t sad about it before he says or does anything else. He would try to cheer you up on the situation if you were sad about it, reminding you adoption is always a good option and just you and him would be perfect as it is now. I could see him surprising you with a nice vacation somewhere to cheer you up.

Skip Muck: He doesn’t say anything really, just because he fears he might fuck something up if he does. The look on his face explains everything for you. You can tell he’s sad, sad for you and him. That’s during the initial reaction, if you still wanted kids though, he would love to adopt with you or start some sort of surrogacy. If you didn’t want a family at all he would be crushed at first but he would move on eventually.

Don Malarkey: If you and him were having fertility issues, he would feel like it’s his fault the entire time, he just wants to give you that perfect little family you guys have always dreamed of. It’s easy to say that when he finds out about you not being able to have/don’t want to have children he would just feel terrible about the whole thing. If you didn’t want kids he would feel like maybe he pressured you somehow about it and would also feel terrible about that. He’s totally encouraging and caring of you though.

Shifty Powers: “Don’t worry about it all right now, we’re still young, we've got our whole lives to figure this stuff out.” He’s so validating during the whole process of baby stuff. Constantly telling you not to worry about it, if it's meant to be that you guys have children, then let it be. If it isn’t, then it just isn’t. But whatever decision you make, he's going to support you 100%.

Babe Heffron: He’s silent. So fucking silent. “So what do you want to do now, honey?” He wants you to decide any further options as far as children go, whether you want to adopt, or not have any kids at all, it’s completely up to you. He would sit there and rub your back softly, whispering soft words of affirmations to you (and himself too) if you were sad about the situation. “It’s gonna be okay, it will all workout doll.”

Ronald Speirs: He’s a bit like Gene here. He promised you to be there “In sickness and in health” and he’s completely sticking to that. You’re his girl/boy, nothing comes between that. If you had felt saddened by the situation he would offer to buy you comfort food, or take you out on a nice date, anything to get it off of your mind. “It’s alright honey. We’re gonna be a-okay.” He’s so soft and patient with you during this time, it’s sweet enough to make you cry.

Johnny Martin: “Oh sweetheart, don’t be sad. We will figure this all out.” He might be just a tad bit snappy at times, but when you tell him the news he is as gentle as a sheep. He will stay there with you, hold your hand softly and take care of you for as long as need be. It absolutely breaks his heart to see you sad and he wants to do anything to make you feel better.

Skinny Sisk: He looks like a sad puppy dog when you tell him the news. He feels sad for you mostly. If you had wanted to be a parent he would hug you so tight and tell you how sorry he is about all of this. He would try taking you out and do all sorts of things to cheer you up (even if that meant making himself look like an absolute fool). He’s the most supportive s/o ever so it just makes your guys’ relationship stronger in the end.

David Webster: He doesn’t really even know what to think about the whole situation. All he knows is that he needs to be there by your side and support you through it all. If you do get really saddened by it, I think he would try and read to you to help make you feel better. Just hearing his soft voice tumble through the words is enough to make you feel better than you were before.

Chuck Grant: He gives you the most “I'm sorry” look ever. He doesn’t say a word to you, just takes you in and holds you close, making sure to plant soft little kisses on your head while you let out all of your emotions. “We’re gonna get through this baby, you and me together.” He keeps close to you for the next couple of weeks, watching you almost like a hawk because he just wants to take care of you and make sure you are okay.

Buck Compton: “I'm so sorry sweet girl/boy. Is there anything I can do?” He doesn’t even really care for kids at the moment, just making sure you are okay is his top priority. If you had wanted kids, he would keep apologizing to you over and over about how sorry he was. He would give you some of his famous bear hugs when you’re feeling sad about it. If you didn’t want kids or a family he would be understanding of it, bc I mean kids are a LOT of work.

Thank you again for your request and support! If you enjoyed this, please like or reblog if you can! Love you all! 🥹🤍

Cam, for the character asks 😁

YES

GIVE ME A CHARACTER;

and I’ll break their ass down:

How I feel about this character

CAM is wonderful. I miss Goodman (he should have come back just for fun anyway), but I think Cam gave the lab a healthy balance by having a Grown Ass Adult who wouldn't be drawn into Nerd Bullshit over Hittites and Assyrians. Goodman, while a good politician with the FBI, was too much like the other squints for his own managerial good. She's so deadpan funny and her efforts to herd the kindergarteners that fill her lab with bullshit is deeply amusing. I also want to know EVERYTHING about her time in New York. Cam the beat cop?? Tell me MORE.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Have you heard the Good News about the gospel of ABC? Coined by @neurodiversebones, Angela/Brennan/Cam is a delightful trio, whether sexual or platonic. I drew some pictures and wrote a fic

Also Aristoo is a dreamboat (POETRY are you KIDDING me? His patience and understanding for Cam's needs and fears?) and I'm side-eyeing the fuck out of anyone who is good with Booth/Brennan but claims workplace harassment with Cam/Aristoo.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

I'm putting Cam/Booth here. Booth has very few friends and Cam is the one person who can reliably say "Seeley, you're being a fucking idiot." to him. I love that so much, he needs the reality check and having a person in the lab who is always in his corner, even though she tries to be a neutral party.

I will say, Booth is overdue to pay Camille back for all the good she's done reality-checking him. He is not there for her in the same way and that sucks. Where's the subplot where she has to crash at his place? Where's Booth taking Michelle on for Paternal Counselling? Where's the B&B and Cam/Aristoo double date? Why doesn't Booth pull Aristoo aside for the 'Prove to me you're good enough for my daughter' bullshit and end up becoming sports buds with him to support Cam?

Also putting the other Booth here. Why is everything with Jared a dead end? I would love to know more about her and Jared's relationship and seen more of them together.

My unpopular opinion about this character

She would have been in the right to fire Brennan in season 2. Cam doesn't know Brennan is the title character of the show, she's just trying to do her job and make the lab as functional and prosecutorially successful as possible. Booth talks a big game about quitting if Brennan left, but he wouldn't actually. He needs the job too much and working with the Jeffersonian is the only thing that makes him special as an agent. I bet he wouldn't even stop his sexual relationship with Cam over it, really. Angela and possibly Hodgins (TBH I doubt he actually would, he is a playboy comfortable in a "job" where he does what he wants, where he wants) might have left, which would have been annoying but not impossible to replace. Brennan is special to our hearts, but she isn't actually the only person capable of doing her work. Finding someone who could do the work, would be a better team player, and a better court presence would be SO worth it. I would love to see how this canon-divergent AU would shake out.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Girl deserves career advancement. I would have loved (for her professionally, idk how well this would play out on-screen) for her to end up in a more formal role connecting the FBI and the Jeffersonian. She should not be stuck dealing with the daily ins-and-outs of herding neurodivergent cats. She's an experienced and competent cop, scientist, and manager, and all three of those skills combined would make her a good Director. IMO in the long run, the FBI is going to want their own lab instead of contracting out to the Jeffersonian forever. She should get to head that project as The Big Boss, not the nitty-gritty details manager.

9 people you'd like to get to know better

I was tagged by @realmoftenderness: thank you so much! 😍🩷 Apparently this has evolved lately, and I love this new version 😁

3 non romantic duos

1 - Pao-Lin and Nathan

AKA the Tiger & Bunny Gender Team. Their dynamic is impeccable: Pao-Lin as the kid who's trying to work with a gender that doesn't fit quite right, and Nathan as the established queer adult who shows her, even just by being there, that the possibilities of who you can be are endless. And yet, not only do they have a peer-to-peer friendship and equal respect for each other as heroes; but when Nathan, who seems so strong and solid in who they are, is actually made vulnerable by all the hurt she's experienced because of her queerness, Pao-Lin is the one who saves her, by pointing out just how wonderful Nathan is because of their different, unique identity.

I have so many feelings about them, and I wish the show had let them interact with each other and explore their shared themes and experiences way more than it did. Luckily, as you can see above, we have Ueda and Yoshida's manga firmly on our side. 💛💖

2 - Data and Geordie

Data was possibly my first main Blorbo, decades before the word Blorbo came to be. And his friendship with Geordie, while being one of the main tenets of both their characters, still, IMO, never got all the credit it deserved; particularly in regard to Geordie's feelings about the many, many time we (almost and then not almost 😭) lose Data, when other people's reactions are often put more in the forefront. Part of that was due to Geordie's status as a more secondary character, sure; but in part it was, perhaps, by virtue of their relationship's own nature. Their frendship is already established; it is more obvious and natural than the laws of physics the Enterprise keeps bending on its adventures; it simply, well, is. The other characters had to learn to understand and love Data; Geordie, apparently, simply accepted him and loved him before the very start. (Insert heavy-handed symbolism here about the blind character easily seeing past someone's surface; the show sure never shied away from it.) And this meant... a lot to me. 💛

(I have not yet seen the last season of Picard, but a glimpse of a headline makes me think I might need to say: please, no spoilers?)

3 - The Doctor and Donna

(Spoilers for the 60th Anniversary specials here, turn away if you need to. They're only one year old, after all. 😅)

You know that post that says these two are the biggest win ever for fictional queerplatonic relationships? (This one, btw.) Yeah, all of that and then more. Donna doesn't give the Doctor heart-eyes, she does not follow him blindly; she yells at him, throws things at his head, and then runs not behind him, but right at his side, with her eyes firmly wide open. The Doctor calls her the most important woman in the whole wide universe, and he means it. At one point, they become one single being, and it is glorious. They would have gone on together forever; them having to lose each other broke me (and probably them) far more than all the other separations in the show could. 💔

Imagine, then, my utter, endless delight when, after almost fourteen years, the 60th Anniversary specials not only reunited these two, but actually gave them a fully happy ending in which the Doctor (well, Tennant's version, anyway) joins Donna's amazing family, parks his TARDIS in their backyard, and just hangs out with them forever and ever, amen (shut up, time is all just wibbly-wobbly stuff, in the end). 💖💖💖

A ship that might surprise others

I'll be honest: I sat here for literally hours trying to think of a ship of mine that might be surprising (and that wasn't, like, stuff from 20 or more years ago that is really too cringe for me to want to bring it up now). I usually like pretty obvious ships, with the gamut of my tastes mostly running along the incredibly wide spectrum of "fluffy friends to lovers" to "snarky friends to lovers". 😅

So in the end I decided to go with something that has actually caused surprise to several people before, not so much because of the ship, but because I even knew about the show at all: Ray/Fraser in Due South 😂 (Apparently Canadians think that only Canadians know this show? But a) Italian TV will air almost anything, and b) the language of classic slash shows is universal. 😁)

Okay, maybe you might be surprised to know that the answer to "but which Ray, though?!?" is actually "Both". I am not a veteran of the Ray Wars; I existed in my little safe corner of "I discovered this fandom a couple of years after the show finished airing, and I just chilled at the edges of it, watching bootleg VHS tapes and reading fic on LiveJournal".

(You can't tell me that Fraser wasn't madly in love with both of them, anyway. It's just fact, as far as I'm concerned.)

Last song: Nightingale by Demi Lovato.

Last film: Pretty sure it was Onward, which I watched with my siblings and enjoyed a fair bit (which was definitely helped by the fact that I did not see/recognize who was voicing Barley until the movie was over).

Currently reading: I just finished (re-)reading Kimi Ni Todoke and it's as utterly sweet and delightful as I remembered. (I do not think I got to chapter 63 on my original readthrough, though, because I did NOT remember it also shattering my heart like that. 😭)

Currently watching: The Ranma 1/2 remake.

Do not ask me

How

You managed

In one week, one measly week

How the FUCK YOU MANAGED TO SET THE HOUSE ON FIRE SIX TIMES

FLOOD IT THRICE

AND SOMEHOW HOT BOX LUCIFER'S ROOM

no okay I know how that last one happened and it was Lucifers breaking point

Let's just say

You and Satan have a very...

Let's say complex relationship

Some days you're so ready to beat the shit out of one another it's a shocker that nobody has died yet

Other days the brothers live in fear

They can hear the two of you scrumbling in the walls desperately, gnawing at the wooden beams and gnashing your teeth at the thought of causing the entire building to crumble, leaving the two of you to sit upon your throne of rubble and bone...

Yeah the brothers DO N O T

Appreciate Big Brother Satan bonding time

Now you would never have thought to hotbox Lucifers room on your own, honestly Satan was pretty surprised you came to him with the idea and even knew what it was and like yeah he was absolutely gonna help you with that shit because it's so fucking funny but still-

Jokes on him

You didnt come up with it

No in fact it was the man in the walls

Which you have explained to the brothers and now all of them live in fear of some fucking guy just living in their walls

Well all except Lucifer for some reason but I digress

One night whilst scrumbling you came across the attic and low and behold there was just some fucking guy in there

And at first you were like

Hello? Whys there a twink in the attic?

Anyways he didnt take too kindly to you saying that bullshit outloud and the two of you argued over whether or not he was a twink for a solid two hours before he just kind of went

Damn are you fucking high on someth-

Wait a minute

Yo kid I just had the best idea

Anyways you didnt quite get it but you were guaranteed that it would be hilarious

And it was

For all of two hours

And then it wasnt

Because Lucifer came down from his high

And got filled with stress again

Like honestly the man probably needs it you did him a favor /j

Anyways

Then you were no longer allowed "free roam without a babysitter"

"No mammon doesnt count"

"No satan doesnt count either"

"You know what, none of you count"

And then you were put on A BABY LEASH

YEAH THATS RIGHT

HARNESS AND ALL

BABY LEASHED RIGHT ALONGSIDE CERBUS AND HIS NORMAL DOG LEASH

AND YOU WERE DRAGGED TO SCHOOL

On the bright side...

At least you're actually a kid

So it's nowhere as embarrassing as it is for Levi to be hooked to the baby leash and dragged to RAD

You arrived and you were so polite

Such an angel to be around

Is what I would say if I were a fucking liar

You got there and were on all cours growling at the other students

You ran into Luke and he TREMBLED

HE YELPED AND LEAPT INTO SIMEONS ARMS

DO YOU KNOW THE PSYCHOLIGICAL DAMAGE YOU JUST DID ON THAT POOR ANGEL

of course you do

you little monster

You spent the entire first hour of class absolutely gnawing on Lucifer's ankle and you could tell he was really holding back from kicking you

And then you had a brilliant idea!!

TEETH BITE

TEETH SHARP

BITE WITH SHARP TEETH

AQUIRE FREEDOM

and thus your chomp chomp mission began, you began tearing at that leash, and eventually your efforts paid off

You were free!!!

MC IS A FREE HUMAN!!!

And so you ran

You ran like your heart depended on it

Luke

Sobbing

Screaming

Crying

Get away from him you tiny psychopath

You came running at him down the hallway and what was he even supposed to do???

HE LITERALLY CRAWLED UP A RANDOM DEMON IN FEAR, THEN JUMPED ONTO THE LOCKERS AND COWERED

of course, you tried climbing up to befriend him

...yeah

he didn't like that

He called Simeon sobbing in a panic while smacking you away with a broom handle

then you stole the broom handle...

THEN YOU STARTED BEATING PEOPLE WITH IT SIMEON

P L E A S E

S E N D

H E L P

Simeon

Hahaha aw

what a sweet little thing you are

you're just a baby human!

awwwe come here sweet ange- AHHHH

WHY ARE YOU BITING

NO BAD HUMAN

NO BITING

He is flailing his hand trying to get you to release your pirannah jaws

This does fucking nothing you are LATCHED ON

YOU ARE GAINING FRIENDS

FRIENDSHIP

LIL BITE

Simeon

had to use his foot

He put his foot on your forehead and just had to kick you off before climbing up with Luke in fear

You were scampering around like a fucking shark

The angels were holding each other, reading off their wills

Barbatos and Diavolo

of course they had to walk down the hallway

right when you started climbing the lockers

causing the angels to scream at the top of their lungs

Diavolo

he

he couldn't keep it together

LISTEN OKAY DONT GET ME WRONG

HE FEELS BAD THAT THEY ARE AFRAID

BUT ALSO

YOU ARE SO SM A L L

WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING THEY ARE TINY

SOMETIMES THEY BITE THATS NORMAL PROBABLY

ITS CALLED TEETHING

DUMBASSES /affectionate

Barbatos doesn't quite know how to break it to him that...children your age are far past teething age

Nonetheless, Barbatos dealt with Diavolo as a child, how much worse could you be?

...

......

.........

No one

Not a single soul

Will ever bring up this day

if they want to live

He doesn't even know where you got shoelaces

YOUR SHOES ARE VELCRO

MORE THAN THAT HOW DID YOU GET ON HIS SHOULDERS

WHAT FUCKING MOVIES HAVE YOU BEEN WATCHING THAT TAUGHT YOU HOW TO PROPERLY CHOKE SOMEONE OUT???

SOMEONE NEEDS TO RESTRICT YOUR FUCKING INTERNET ACCESS

YOUR HIGHNESS, PLEASE STOP FUCKING LAUGHING I AM DYING FRFR

Solomon

wheezing

crying on the floor

he filmed it all

no more than that

he's live streaming

Lucifer is trying to call him

Lmao blocked

He snatched you up and fucking ran

You are his little buddy now

You are taking cover deep in a place where Solomon knows Lucifer would never look for him...

...

HE IS A NERD

A BOOK NERD

A MAGIC NERD

HE DOESNT REALLY NEED TO GO TO GYM CLASS NOW STFU BEFORE HE LEAVES YOU FOR DEAD

I've been on this train for hours, it can't be much further now.. I'm excited to meet everyone, but really I'm more excited for the filming opportunities

I've heard it's a quiet town and not a lot really happens there, but obviously where there's quiet, there'll be rumours. Whatever happens there, I'm sure it'll be fine!

Huh. In the 10 minutes I've been typing, I can already see the train station.. well, whatever, I'm here now that's all that matters

Wow, 2 months already.. has it really been that long? That doesn't feel right

Well.

It's fine, I'll be fine, I can get out of this place soon anyway, gotta document my findings for my video

Met the mayor (apparently his name is Red? He doesn't really talk. Like, at all. Wonder if he's always been like that..)

Mayor is apparently also a kid?? Or was a kid when he first got here? I'm not sure, no one would give me a straight answer

I didn't catch everyone's names when I met them all, I remember there were 4 human residents though: Red (obviously), Ben, Emerald and [text corrupted]

There was also that rabbit.. Coco? She was.. ok honestly, she scared the shit outta me when I met her but she was really nice actually..

There was something weird going on in main street but I never got to go check it out

Honestly there genuinely wasn't much going on there, lowkey a waste of time except the scenery was really pretty so it doesn't feel anywhere near as pointless as it should

The train's coming

I need to go

Hey. So. What happened? Last time I came here I could just hop on a train for a few hours

Oops! Should've mentioned that a lot changed since 2016 😖😖

Yeah, probably! How did a town become an island anyway?

Long story! I can fill you in when you land! 😁

..yeah about that.. sea plane?

Mhm! Don't question it 😅😅

By the way.. have you heard from Jen⬛⬛ at all recently?

Why? 😕

He's not answering anything.. I've emailed, texted, hell even called.. I haven't heard from him at all..

Oh.. I'm.. sure he's fine! 😊😊

Hey. Uh.. it's Loaf.. yeah, from The Void.. my brother made it to the island about 2 weeks ago and he went out to record around the island but he's seemed.. off since..

He's been a little confused and shivering a lot, I think he needs to see a doctor...

[dreamwritesimagines]

I have a feeling that Bucky has had a crush on Charm for a long time and the main victims of it have been Becca and Steve. Becca because she gets drilled with questions after every night out at breakfast and Steve because he has had to hear about it for years:

Bucky, pretending not to care: so, how did she get home last night? The driver said he only dropped you off.

Steve, who can already see where this is going and its barely 7am: You uh- you talked to the driver, Buck?

Bucky: We chatted.

Steve: At four am? I-

Bucky: Anyways. Bex?

Becca, still wearing her club clothes and sunglasses at the table, glitter all over and half convinced someone poisoned her coffee (no one did, she's just hungover): huh-

Bucky, trying to appear nonchalant but it's not fooling anyone: how did Charm get home?

Steve: Buck, c'mon, she's a big girl-

Becca: Liam dropped her off... I think. Are we sure this food is safe? I feel sick.

Bucky: Whatever. What the fuck is a Liam?

Becca: A friend. I really think we should-

Bucky: whose friend? At what time? What was the car number-

Steve, who has been in this exact same situation ever since the girls started to go clubbing: Bucky, I think we should let Becca get some rest.

Becca, who wishes Steve were her brother but is also currently swaying on her seat: That's a great idea-

Bucky: She will as soon as she answers some questions- this Liam kid, is he safe? Haven't heard that name before so he can't be from one of the families... is this a school friend? Don't tell me it's a guy from the club.

And that's the fourth time that Becca throws up on the table and the third that Steve helps her get to bed.

OMG OMG DARLIIING😍😱❤️

I’m so going to fangirl over this and you because THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 😍

So first of all, you are incredibly talented! 😍 This scene is so good, like I need this to happen, I’m so taking this as canon 😂❤️

Steve going like “At four am?” with a completely exasperated expression because it’s too early in the morning 😂

Becca, still wearing her club clothes and sunglasses at the table, glitter all over and half convinced someone poisoned her coffee (no one did, she's just hungover) HELP, THIS IS SO BECCA-

What the fuck is a Liam? There are Kill Bill sirens going off in Bucky’s head for sure 😂

whose friend? At what time? What was the car number- HE’S FIRING QUESTION AFTER QUESTION, I CAN’T-😂

Steve, who has been in this exact same situation ever since the girls started to go clubbing Oh Steve needs a painkiller, fast😁 He will whine to Sam about how Bucky’s all braincells stop working as soon as Charm is mentioned 😂

Awww Steve being so nice to Becca, that would be their whole dynamic! ❤️ It’s so sweet! ❤️

Omg my loveeeee, this made my whole day, I will read this over and over again! 😍 Thank you so so much, ILY! ❤️

Also since your wonderful scene inspired me, now my mind is full of this trio, Bucky relentlessly asking questions, Becca totally not paying attention and Steve facepalming 😁 It would happen like every Sunday breakfast, because they probably all have breakfast together as a family and Steve is always invited ❤️ So Bucky would clear his throat and go like,

“Becca.”

“Hm?”

“So I was by Stark’s territory yesterday-“

“Why? It’s miles and miles away.”

“I had things to do there, it’s not important.”

“Is this why you ditched me and Sam? We had a meeting and all I got was a text saying you were busy?”

“I was busy. By a total coincidence, I saw Charm there and-“

“Oh yeah she mentioned she had this date there.”

“…Date?”

“Becca. Becca no, don’t do this to me.”

“She was having a date with that asshole?”

“Oh you’ve met him?”

“No. No, it’s just- he looks like an asshole.”

“Great. Now this is going to be the only thing I’m going to hear for the whole week, thanks a lot Becca.”

“What-I said nothing!”

“Who the hell is that dude?”

“We met him at the club last night-“

“At the club?!”

“Yeah. I think he’s a-“

“No. No no, some dude from a club? He cannot be trusted, also he’s not even that good looking, go tell her that.”

Felt like writing outside my main fanfic again... So here's another fic! For now, my Chitarch content will be here on Tumblr... I don't think it's up to snuff for Ao3 and there are a couple of spoilers. Also, the Heavensbadies are more alive here than my other platforms 😁

Anyway, this is about when Chiasa and Plutarch had their first meaningful conversation after she found herself helping out with a minor operation; you could call it the first real spark between them. Enjoy!

Chiasa stared at her comm, contemplating what to do. She had to talk to somebody... But who? She'd had her hard feelings toward the government for decades, but she was normally able to keep them to herself. This time was different... This time, she aided and abetted the rebels directly.

It was Yuletide night... One minute she was enjoying herself at her nephew Marcus's party, the next, she'd heard talk about "undercover," and "safehouses" near a suite's ajar door. She found Marcus, his girlfriend, Ann, and Plutarch Heavensbee with a little family and three festive bags filled with essentials. From what was gathered, the woman, "Agent Hale," was compromised. She was rescued in time and getting ready to get somewhere safe.

There was so much going through Chiasa's head... She'd heard whispers of a "cold war" between the government and a rebel cell, but for the most part, she dismissed it as propaganda. Even so, she was more inclined to side with these rebels. As happy as she was that Marcus turned out to have a conscience, his being an agent filled her with a new kind of worry. Still... That wasn't what compelled her to help. It was the two scared and confused kids. She knew what would happen... Snow would dangle them in front of that poor woman, at least... That couldn't happen, especially when she'd troubled them when she overheard. Helping Plutarch smuggle Agent Hale and her children to her studio and disguising them further was the least she could do. And of course, giving Plutarch her solemn word that she'd keep quiet... Even if Marcus wasn't involved, she still heard that some damaged reputations in the past were the cell's retaliation.

In the end, it was the right thing to do, but being on the sidelines and participating were two different things. As much as she'd always wished to... She had her family, friends, and business to think about. Maybe that ship had sailed... At least with her nephew. He was young, but far from stupid, he had to know what he was getting into. But worrying about him was natural... as was the agony over what had happened, how many rumors were true...

Who would she call, though... Talking to her sister and brother in law were out... Talking to Marcus might end in a lecture born of her anxiety... Tigris maybe? No... She might be estranged from her cousin but who knew where her politics stood? Well... There was one person left... Mr. Heavensbee. She barely knew the guy, only exchanging a polite conversation here and there over the years... But he was there, he knew what he was doing... As much as he didn't seem like the emotional type, there wasn't anyone else. She found his office number and dialed. At the tone, she steadied her breathing... Be polite, but vague...

"Head Gamemaker's office, how may I help you?" a female voice answered.

"Oh! Um... Hello. You must be Mr. Heavensbee's assistant," said Chiasa, "My name is Chiasa Lapin... Is he available? I have to speak with him."

"I'm sorry, he's quite busy... Can I--"

"It's about Marcus Natale's party last night," she added.

The line was silent. She really should have gotten this poor woman's name... Was shein on this, too?

"Oh... What did you say your name was?" the assistant asked.

"Chiasa Lapin."

"Hold please."

Yet another few moments to agonize.... Please don't hang up, please don't hang up....

"Hello?" a male voice answered, "Ms. Lapin?"

"Yes, Mr. Heavensbee? Hello! I know you're busy, but I was wondering if I could speak to you about las--"

"Not now," he interrupted, "Not here."

That would have been rude in another setting, but maybe he had a point... Spies could be anywhere.

"I, sorry, I-I..."

"We can talk tomorrow at 5 PM. My estate in the Gilded Hills," he said, "I'm sure I don't have to warn you about trying anything."

He really didn't, but... She thought it would have taken more convincing than that. Maybe the cerebral man had a soul after all?

"I, yes, thank you, I'll be there."

"I'll see you then."

The line went dead. At least he was straightforward... Those tended to be better men in general. Hopefully the trend would continue...

To be honest, Chiasa didn't know what to expect when she arrived at the grand villa. Nothing was really certain at this point... But that was why she was there, wasn't it? The minute she was let in, two plain-clothed flocked to her. The woman took her coat and purse, then started searching through each.

"Excuse me," Chiasa started to protest.

The man pointed to her skirt pockets, gesturing for them to empty them. She only had her comm, but nevertheless, the man handed it over to his companion. He then took out what looked like a scanner... Something one might find at the presidential palace's entrance. Nothing seemed to be off, so she was escorted through the Roman style home to the parlor, where Plutarch was waiting.

"Hello," she greeted, "Well, that was thorough... Awfully invasive."

"I'm sorry, but one can't be too careful," he said, "You understand... Don't worry, you'll get everything back when you leave."

"I guess..." she replied, "Mr. Heavensbee, if you wanted to frisk me, you could have just asked."

She giggled nervously, and Plutarch blushed lightly. Noticing this, Chiasa immediately went pale and regretted her choice of words. Maybe there was another reason she wasn't an active rebel... Too many slips of the tongue under pressure.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean anything by that, I just--"

Luckily, Plutarch just laughed. "I know you didn't. You're probably just nervous... It's understandable after what's happened."

Chiasa let out a sigh of relief... Even with rebel leanings, at least one of them could still mind their manners.

"Care for a drink?" he offered.

"Yes, please... A decaf with cream would be nice."

"Julius?" he called out to the male avox, "Please bring us two decaf coffees, one with milk, one with cream."

It said a lot about a person's character when they called avoxes by their names... Chiasa remembered a time when the practice wasn't the norm it was in the present... But even she couldn't escape it. Bettina had been with her for about twenty years... Only because she could go to someone crueler if Chiasa let her go. The best she could do was give her nice clothing, tips, and a better place to sleep. Ideally, she'd have her sent home with her tongue intact, but the world wasn't ideal. Chiasa was learning quite a bit about this man, yet the real conversation hadn't yet begun.

"Mr. Heavensbee," she started.

"Please, Plutarch," he interjected, "I get enough honorifics everywhere else, at least let me escape them at home, Ms. Lapin."

"Well then, I'm just Chiasa. I may be old on paper, but I don't need a reminder around every corner either."

"Noted."

Julius had since returned with their coffee... While taking a sip, Chiasa studied her companion. Plutarch was oddly relaxed, having the same idea... It was simply another Tuesday for him! She'd seen such a poise under fire in her elders when she was a girl, but it was rare in people younger than her. She wondered what he’d seen... What he'd done... To master such a skill. It was simply how things worked...

She had to admit, he wasn't bad-looking... In all the years they'd been acquainted, he was. He was freckled, plump, salt and paprika, human. Such a thing was becoming rarer and rarer nowadays... As much as she staved off her age, she was still old fashioned in her belief that beautiful people looked like people, not animals or whatever other fantastic creature was "fashionable." Even her own mentor, Tigris, had fallen into that unfortunate trend.

"Now," Plutarch started, "I guess you're wondering why I agreed to meet with you."

Why indeed... She had a couple of guesses, at least.

"I don't know... Maybe you felt sorry for me? Did Marcus ask you?"

"Maybe a little," he replied, "And he's got nothing to do with this. As far as I know, he doesn't even know you're here. No... I'm curious."

Chiasa found herself shifting in her seat. She knew what was coming. She literally walked right into it, yet she felt a familiar lump in her throat; the one she always got whenever she had to hold her tongue.

"Why? Why did you help?" he asked.

Clearly, he was a rebel. There wasn't much of a need to hide, but she still felt the need to be diplomatic.

"Because it was the right thing," Chiasa replied, "There were kids involved, I couldn't have anything go awry for their sake."

"Is that so... Believe me, if you'd stuck your neck out before, I'd know. The right thing... I'm sure Snow would believe they'd have it come, it's just the way for traitors--"

"Well, Snow can go straight to hell! These are children! No matter what their mother did, they don't deserve death! Actually, since their mother obviously believes the same with what happens every damned summer for so many--"

Surprising herself, Chiasa covered her mouth and averted her eyes. Even though she had some mishaps in the past, nothing on this scale ever happened. For a moment, she forgot where she was, tearing up and starting to tremble.

"I-I'm sorry, I forget myself," she whimpered, "Forget I said that... But they're safe, right? They're in a safe place."

"They are, they're in a much safer place," said Plutarch, "But I can't forget what you said. I think you know by now that I'm not going to condemn any of that... Did you mean it."

She looked back up at him to see him carefully scrutinizing her. Of course... He was still making sense, at least. Either way, she was in too deep to turn back. All she could do was nod. Plutarch seemed pleased... Or perplexed? Both, maybe. He was still hard to get a read on.

"Either I've been misled, or you're a lot better than you're given credit for," he pondered.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't worry yourself with that.... How long have you felt this way? I know you were a stylist."

It was true... Chiasa had been the stylist for District 3 for years. It was typically humiliating to be let go for someone younger and hipper, but she took her retirement as a blessing... It was the least painful way to escape. She couldn't remember what drove her down that path in the first place... Her parents being quietly displeased should have been the first clue... Running away from reality with a "bad habit" in her youth should have been a red enough flag... She really should have gotten out while she could, before Snow had that much power, but she was so damned stubborn back then...

"Quite a while..." she admitted, "My mother did plant a few free thinking seeds in my head... But I didn't have strong opinions until I started work and met the poor children... I didn't take it well the first few years, but that's another story. But yes... I was so determined to have my fashions on top, then I had my kids and had to support them... And if you've heard anything about me, I'm not one to just settle down and marry rich."

"And all those years, you hadn't done anything?" His tone wasn't quite harsh, but still kept the guilt coming.

"I'm sorry to say no... Maybe this sounds pathetic to someone like you... I imagine you're pretty seasoned in this rebel business," she replied, "If you know as much as you say, then you know what's at stake if something goes wrong. You should, after what happened. What about the less lucky ones, like your friend Gus Petra? Even innocent people like my d-- Never mind. I don't want anything happening to me or my family. I'm no fool, Plutarch... But if it helps me survive, then it's best that people think that of me."

Chiasa wiped away her tears, and glanced back at him. The room was silent for what seemed like an eternity... But there was no angry reaction. He continued to scrutinize her, and she felt exposed. It was only fitting, finally getting a dark secret out there. Still, it wasn't ill-intentioned like many men... Moreso he was trying to pierce her soul.

"It's good to put up a front, especially in this world," he finally said, "But it's still simply that, a front. I wouldn't say you're pathetic... Nor callous, shallow, stupid... As for the fear... If it didn't work, we'd be out of the woods by now. You seem like the caring type... Always wanting to protect everyone. In doing so, however, people are still hurt. In the end, not everyone can be saved. I understand."

"I guess... Yet, you're still doing this, being a rebel without the fear, always with that possibility of ultimate failure. How?" she asked.

"I never said there wasn't any fear," Plutarch replied with a slight smile, "But it's not about that. It's about knowing something else is more important. You know Chiasa... You could have just walked away, stood by like always, but you didn't. You can't tell me you weren't afraid."

"But I was... I was terrified. But those children, lost and confused... Simply because their mother did what we both thought was right... I hate that this is the world we live in."

"And that outrage clearly outweighed your fear of any consequences."

He had a point... Chiasa wasn't thinking about herself at all in that moment, but them... Something in her had snapped that night... Too many years of pushing it all down, she guessed.

"Yes... Yes, I suppose you're right," she said, "But it was an anomaly. You still probably go about this stuff every day like it's nothing. Maybe some people think it's stupid... But I admit... I think it's admirable."

The truth was, she took comfort in those rebel cell stories. Even if she couldn't do anything, there were people that could, and did out there. She felt herself flush at her words, although she didn't know why. Maybe she was simply coming down from her emotional state, finally getting to say these things out loud.

Or maybe it was the way Plutarch beamed at her words. Such a natural smile was such a rarity, and adorable. Forty years off the face, not forty light years

"Thank you. That's kind of you to say," he replied, "However... Right now I know you're capable. Who knows what might happen in the future..."

It was nice of him to believe in her, even if that was a little too much faith in her opinion. Maybe that was it... People didn't often assume the best of her anymore. Even in the past, her mother in particular wished she'd think beyond beauty and frivolity "for once... Good people have much better things to think about."

"I suppose that's nice to have that kind of faith in people, but I don't know if I'd hold out for me."

"Not people, you. Maybe not in the present," he said, "But your actions told me otherwise."

"Because I simply did the right thing and helped?"

"And just now, when you told me how much you hate Snow and his bloodlust. Maybe I won't see you taking up arms, buy you care about others, Chiasa. You have the spark. It's a real shame that you've had to keep it to yourself. But right now, right here, you don't have to. You're safe.

You're safe.... You're safe.... You're safe....

Those last two words kept echoing in Chiasa's mind. She'd heard them many times in her life but hadn't been inclined to believe it. So many had tried to tell her how the Capitol was an oasis, yet she'd seen and heard about a lot of messed up nonsense that went on behind closed doors... The dirty deals, the deaths, the pressure.... And she hadn't even gotten into the few times her father spoke of the late war... Simple proof that the outside world couldn't be ignored forever. With the whispers and Katniss's influence... Maybe such a thing was coming a second time... In a few years, maybe.

"Am I?" she asked, "Am I truly?"

Plutarch hesitated, but thankfully was simply pondering again. What was going in that pretty little head of his.... If he was even more aware than she was, how was he not broken by then? What motivated this much rage that called him to action rather than fear. Or was it passion? Both? Even having spent a few minutes with him, Chiasa was woman enough to admit she was wrong about Plutarch Heavensbee. The man was far from boring... Intriguing was the better word now.

"As safe as I can keep you," he replied seriously, "Which is more than I can say for the Capitol... Having to keep your mouth shut to stay alive. I'll say that you don't have to keep your thoughts to yourself while you're in here."

"How refreshing... An honest answer," she remarked, "I guess you picked up that I know when people are trying to sell paradise."

"If you'll pardon the expression, people your age are either completely fooled by illusion or all too aware of how things truly are.

"You're pardoned. Once," she quipped, "You're spot on there... And I suppose you're young enough to still be optimistic.

Plutarch laughed... Somehow the hearty sound relaxed her. Those contagious laughs were just the best; always better than a forced guffaw at some terrible joke.

"Pleased with yourself?" he asked, still smiling.

"That's a loaded question.... In the moment, I guess. I'm pleased with you too... You know, there is something I really want to know."

"What's that, Chiasa?"

"The black... Is it a sort of protest against frivolity? Mourning for humanity? Or simply your color?" she asked.

Chiasa adored bright colors as much as the next Capitolite, but she had to admire people who pulled off simple black. There were too many who looked standoffish or desperate... But those who could pull it off were something special. Plutarch had always been one of them, no matter what she may have thought about him in the past.

"A bit of both, perhaps," he quipped, "I still don't think there's anything wrong with a little bit of indulgence... Life would be terribly dull otherwise."

"Oh, I agree completely..."

She spotted a familiar wicked gleam in his eye... Something she'd recognized in a lit of men. It had to be the lighter mood, but did it matter? Plutarch was cute of course, but now he had that air of mystery, intelligence, and valiance about him. What a combination indeed... It wouldn't hurt to brush his hand a bit... Or maybe his leg. Maybe she could find an excuse to fix his hair or vest...

No, no... That would be too forward. The focus should be on herself at first. If it weren't so damned cold out, she would have forgone the wool tights under her skirt. If only she had her purse... She could reapply her lipstick. No matter, tucking a strand of dark hair behind her ear would do the trick... His smile widened, even if only for a second. Maybe a subtle lick of the lips would do...

What on earth was she doing? She should have some decorum.... No matter what was going on, this was Marcus's boss. She had to change the subject and be boring and proper.... Maybe she didn't feel too bad.... Plutarch had done nothing to appear uncomfortable or stop her. She'd behave herself for now... Maybe she could test the waters later. After all, her nephew didn't know about all her flings, and he certainly didn't need to.

"It's sad we haven't really talked until now," she said.

"I'm sure the rumor mills are to blame, feeding us both lies about each other," he replied, "But now we know."

Before Chiasa could reply, Julius had wandered back into the room and pointed to his wrist. Plutarch in turn checked his pocket watch and sighed in frustration.

"I'm afraid I have to cut this short, I'm due for another meeting," he said.

"Aww... And we were really getting somewhere," she said, "Business, pleasure, or other business."

"That's classified. You know.... In two days, my schedule is clear after 5," he suggested, "You could come by again if you wish."

"After today? It's no question... I'm so intrigued that I must."

Plutarch had indeed become more interesting and dashing overnight... It was rare Chiasa met a man she wanted to scrutinize on the inside as well as the outside, especially in this day and age... It was definitely rare to find one who wanted to hear what she really thought... Not only did he not judge her, but he encouraged her opinions. He'd told her she was safe. Just this once, she believed it. What an oddly... Joyful? Exciting? Beautiful? Well... Positive feeling for sure.

Plutarch insisted on showing her out himself and all was returned as promised. He'd offered his hand as a polite gesture, but now.... A shake seemed too formal. She lightly squeezed it and he reciprocated with a smile before she turned to leave.

Chiasa wasn't sure to expect at their next meeting, but one thing was for certain... This time, rather than dread, she counted down the minutes in anticipation.

life is so NOT good, sorry hyunjin 😓😓

lowkey would like to throw up, but at the same time, i haven't eaten anything sauuur.. i don't think it would be a great idea 🤑🤑

i was in a 4 days "holiday" w my family (parents+only one pair of grandparents) and it was absolute SHIT 😍😍 -10/10 would NAWT recommend. i tried being nice. i really did. i swear on my life. BUT 😖 your honor, i couldn't just shut up. they wanted me to be all lovey dovey with them, my grandma has been an absolute KAREN and told me and my grandpa (her husband..) that we belong to a MENTAL HOSPITAL 😁😁

oh and my whole family fought with each other... but they still wanted me to be a chill girl... like pls gtfo here, i might just also kill myself. i will NAWT act like the best, chillest motherfucker in the town just because you're a sensitive bitch.

def not me.

oh and when i helped my parents get home (i'm spending the night here cuz i'm sleepy), my mom started yelling at me about how i was cold (MY HEART IS COLD MY MOVES ARE BOLD) and how i'm a bad daughter and a bad neice (yey, me!).

lowkey cried and my dad noticed and hugged me (i don't even think he understood wtf was happening tbh). the only good thing that happened on that fucking holiday was me and my dad actually bonding and not fighting at all (daddy issues who??).

ANYWAY WONDERFUL😍😍. i love love loove the CAL updates and i'm so so so sad that it'll be over 😓😓. about the hybrids thingy, i wanted to say that hybrids don't shapeshift, those are specifically shapeshifters. buuut, since none truly exist (A FACT THAT I'M MOURNING💔💔) and you're the author, i think hybrids can also shapeshift, depending on ppl's imagination. also plzplzplz make us be hybrids too💔💔😓😓 i think life would be so much cooler if hybrids/ppl w different colors are skin tones (pink, red, purple etc) existed. i like yapping on this specific theme..

im sorry to hear about your experience with you fam once again.. 😭 like why is it so hard for parents to be a little nicer to their kids like it doesnt hurt man!!

also i think for the hybrid thing, only like one or two stories have actual shapeshifting? idk its a mess in my head i fear !

please yap about it i loveeeee hybrid fics i think they are soooo interesting

Hello it's me again I was wondering if you could do a Runaan and Ethari where reader is runaans younger sister you was turned into a ghost (banished) and they help her get unghosted plz

I’ll try my best, I just finished that episode so I’m not exactly confident it’ll turn out good plus it might be short especially since I have yet to finish the season (just a couple more episodes) so yea sorry if it doesn’t turn out the way you want it and it ends up short, I might rush it. Also yes I know I could do this later after I’m finished but since I already seen this request it’s going to be hard to ignore it until later so I’m doing it now lol.

Warning: noob author, female reader, platonic characters, and others.

Characters: runaan, and ethari.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You were the younger sister to runaan the greatest moonshadow assassin in all of silvergrove (I honestly blanked out of his title that was used, my bad 😅). You went on the same mission as him and rayla.

The mission went a bit differently to how you had thought it would go which lead to you adventuring with rayla, the two human kids and the dragon egg that was apparently alive unlike what was to be believed back in xadia.

Sadly you didn’t know what happened to your big brother, you hope that whatever happened it was quick for him. Back in silver grove both yours and rayla’s lotus still float while the rest sunk to the bottom completely all except one.

Sadly when you and rayla returned to silver grove you both became ghosts, with the help of ethari once he let off the spell you three set off on to xadia again. After all that has happened you and rayla found out that runaan was alive and brought him back.

Sadly Enron didn’t take it nicely once he realized that rayla’s father and your brother was the one that killed his and callum’s father. So you two decided to take runaan and leave which had callum come as well.

You and rayla didn’t tell runaan about you two being ghost to the grove excluding ethari but that changed as ethari had told him after meeting up with him after two long years.

Yep he was very troubled and angry so he and ethari both helped to get you and rayla unghosted which proves to be tricky as the moonshadow elf who does it has a grudge against you two, thankfully after some time and talking to you both were free and is able to be seen again.

(A/n: ok so maybe not short in paragraphs but most likely short in some details, I honestly wanted to rush it so that this doesn’t get cobwebs in my draft like others so some details that I could’ve added weren’t added for that reason which I’m sorry for but I just really wanted to get back into my groove of being able to get these out fast like I used to, though I did like; and kinda knew, that it was a ‘the dragon prince’ request 😁anyway I believe that is it, hope yall liked it and hope yall have a wonderful day/evening/night!!! 😁)

Hey, just wanted to say hi and tell you how much I love your fankids! They're all so cute 🥰

I was wondering if you would mind sharing some lore about Shadow's kid Ombra? I love him but I'm super curious about his origins! I skimmed through his tag and from that one comic my guess is he's an experiment made from Shadow's DNA or something kind of like that? Anyway this is your opportunity to rant about your OC if you'd like 😅 (or not if you're busy or something 😁)

Also Merry almost-Christmas!

Hiii!!!!

First of all, thank you!!!! Your fankids are also wonderful and I love them!!!! 💖💖💖

Secondly, regarding your question: you are right!!! I admit that it is not the most original story I have come up with... (but then again, I couldn't imagine Shadow in a relationship in this AU either).

Both Ombra (and the "brother" he recently learned about) were created by Eggman imitating his grandfather's project. He was rescued by Shadow himself halfway through his development (when he was physically 5 or 6 years old) and was placed under his care.

Even though Shadow wanted him to have a "normal" childhood, Ombra never quite fit in. Mainly because of GUN's constant intervention and his troubles when it came to socializing. He spent most of his life isolated until he started having adventures with Sam (Sonamy fankid) and the others.

He's now shown that he's actually quite friendly, he just needed to take the step. He continues to slowly learn certain "social rules" that he was unaware of due to his isolation, and although he may not have had the best start with Sammy (she's not the best at friendship either) they are already understanding each other. He also found a place on the team alongside Brutus (Vectilla's son) and Moon (Silvaze's son) and his current "mission" is to get Seven (Ombra's "brother") to do the same.

Really, thanks for the question!! ☺️

Also Merry-Almost-Christmas for u too! ✨

i love your evil!Batman story so much!! The writing of the characters especially Cass is just phenomenal, i feel so sorry for all the kids especially Damian who is just a Little Guy who misses his mom!!

Alt!Tim intrigues me cause he is very much a victim here too but also he very much enabling and even participating in abuse (atleast on Damien). Cause like Talia said sometimes you have to go against your morals to survive and Tim is very much a kid and yet what he did was not ok!!! I only hope he is getting some counseling in the ogverse (i wonder what his reaction would be when he finds out the version of him is bi and has a boyfriend. I don't think he or even evil!Bruce is homophobic but also that Bruce was a misogynistic and ableist so i can definitely see him going it's-just-a-phase). Also do the Alt!Young Justice have a clue? Or are they oblivious to Tim's home situation?

Also Alt!Cass!!! She's trying her best!!! Get her out of there!!!! I just love how she's so protective of her siblings and still maintains her no-kill rule and yet the way Bruce has wrapped her mind is just so fucking awful!!!

And i really love the unreliable narration of this. Cause the abusive dynamics and elements we do see shows how awful and bad the situation is, but there's so much hidden, especially with Alt!Tim and alt!Dick not being there, Alt!Cass having more rosy eyed half view (especially given how she joined the family late), rest of them being outsiders etc. We can see the situation is terrible but also you can tell it's just a tip of the iceberg and there will always be More fucked up things to discover.

Anyway loved your fic. I hope Tim gets to be a gigantic menace on evil!Bruce and get that man arrested

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you're enjoying it :D

Alt!Tim is in the unfortunate position of not being around to defend himself or showcase any other sides of him besides what Tim picks up from Bruce and his siblings. He's very much a victim but since this is regular Tim's POV he finds it hard to give his au self the same sympathy he does his siblings. No spoilers but Tim will be learning more about him next chapter 😁

The unreliable narration is so fun for me like Tim is just constantly so uncomfortable but also kind of clueless? Like he's doing his best with what he can pick up and he's a fast learner but everything he hears from Cass Jason and Damian is filtered through their own biased lens and also like you said, doesn't even scratch the surface. None of these kids are going to go up to him and share their deepest traumas so despite the horror of what he's witnessed, there's always that sinking feeling in the back of his mind that if this is a normal day for them, then what does a bad day look like? He's navigating a dangerous and unfamiliar world with nothing but context clues and a smile, so honestly he's probably pretty lucky he has people ready to tell him things like the Dick lore otherwise he'd be just constantly dancing around the subject if it came up lmao.

Thank you so much for the ask! I love hearing your thoughts on the fic :D

[evansbby]

oh bestie, you just always have to eat with your fics 😭 i feel bad that i already want a series for captain’s reward but like IT’S SO GOOD the potential is literally SCREAMING at me i don’t even know where to start!

actually, let me start with the “he’ll still fuck other women” bit because all the angst that could arise from this is just 🥺 <— that is EXACTLY how his little reward will be like when she finds out that she’s just an object to him like she’s realizing it’s not a fairytale and she’s nothing more than a toy that steve labels his favorite 😔 i wonder how she’d have to find out though, because i’m assuming that steve never lets her out of his floor so would she have to be kicked out of his room? would she smell the other women on him when she goes to sleep in his bed?? like technically since steve owns her (in his eyes) that clearly means she’s not an equal to him so even if they’re married, reward’s bed isn’t really her bed still :(

on the other hand, i’m sorry but i can’t help to think of steve being so childish at the thought of his reward being with anyone else 😭 because it’s kinda like flaunting your favorite toy around and boasting about it but when other people come to admire it too, steve just hisses and hides his little reward behind him like “no, MINE” 😡 though i wish it would be in better terms and that it would be because steve is genuinely in love with his reward i don’t see it happening anytime soon unfortunately… but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying steve being mad even from the mere idea of another man even looking at his reward 😌

that being said, i don’t even know who’d be worthy of the [not-really] rival though… i’d say peter because of the more closed age gap between himself and reader and the generational (more progressive) difference between him and steve but then it’d become more like poyt and i know that’s probably not what you were going for anyways… i realize that you never mentioned thor when you brought up the other avengers but i don’t know how he could fit in this universe really, oh well we’ll just let cap and his reward be for now

another thing i’m definitely excited for is the wedding! how would reader’s parents react to the news, given that it’s so sudden? they look up to captain america too so would they be proud of their daughter or would they be a little skeptical of their daughter being wed to a man twice her age just out of the blue?? i think the former would be more entertaining, since i could see reward looking the most on-edge in this situation and steve being the most smug knowing that her parents don’t even know he already took her virginity before the wedding 😫 given it’s captain america, would the news of the wedding be publicized or private? i feel like the world would know regardless but i’m wondering how it’d go about, yunno (the smut would definitely be worth the read either way 😁)

again, i know it sounds a bit deja vu but i just know reader’s already pregnant, and i can’t help but wonder how it would change both steve and his reward… because i feel like reader would do just about anything for steve but be more assertive when their child’s finally in the picture

i’m already picturing like a super-angsty moment where reader is just about fed up with steve not being as devoted to their marriage as she is and she’s ready for a divorce, but she wouldn’t up and leave her kid with steve (and definitely not take her baby away from steve knowing that she can’t just provide on her own, she’d obviously opt for co-parenting) so how far is steve willing to be stuck in his ways before he starts to change for his new family? maybe his job as a hero starts to rise in stakes as he realizes that he now does have a family to go home to?? reward could always be an object to him, but surely he can’t think the same of their child, right??? RIGHT????

anyways sorry for going too far but those were all the thoughts in my head about captain’s reward 😭 this is what i meant when i said that the potential was screaming at me 🫣 i just love it so much!

- 🫶🏼 anon (still jenneyquinn but as i’m still using my burner acc i’m reclaiming my old alias for the time being)

ps: thank you for bringing attention to my login situation! because i’ve been busy recently i haven’t had time to reach out to tumblr support but when i get more free time i’ll get on that asap 😭

OMG BESTIEEE I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT YOU! I’m happy you saw that I replied to your last ask and I really hope you get your account back!! Im happy you’re still around tho!!! 🩷🩷🩷 idk why tumblr did you so dirty skdjsksksksk

Alsooooo, the reader in TCR isn’t exactly in love with Steve either 😭😭😭 fr that girl just wants to go home and do her homework 😭 so I don’t think presently she’d care if he “cheated” on her and I don’t think she would even consider it cheating bc she doesn’t like him like that rn!

I definitely envisioned her parents to approve of her marrying Steve! I mean he’s literally Captain America! He’s every conservative parents’ dream son in law! They wouldn’t even care about the age gap bc they’d approve sooo much of him anyways and think it’s a great match 😂 and Steve knows this. His public persona is sooo charming too, it’s only behind closed doors that his true darkness comes out!

And I actually can’t imagine her pregnant rn! I think Steve wants to enjoy her for a while before having a proper family and anyways, he’s literally heartless so I don’t think it’s a good idea for him to have children rn 😭😭😂😂😂 currently, their future storylines would be about her wanting to go home, him not letting her, him charming her parents, him showing her off to his team, his team being suspicious of him and trying to save her, her being scared shitless of him etc etc 😂😂 also her having a little crush on Bucky and IT KILLS STEVE LIKE HE IS ENRAGED BY THIS bc he can tell when he introduces her to Bucky, she gets extra shy 🥹🥹😭😭
