[ cw: nightmares / trauma / ]

Post-invasion, Mikey sneaks into Leo’s room and when asked by Leo what the problem was, Mikey just smiles and says since he’s awake and knew Leo would be too, he didn’t want either of them alone. Leo laughs and lets Mikey stick around, both of them clumped together on Leo’s bed, watching grainy compilations of old Lou Jitsu commercials on Leo’s phone.

Technically, Mikey didn’t lie. He just didn’t explain everything that led him to Leo’s room. He didn’t explain the nightmare of his arms burning up too bright, too fast, destroyed before Raph and Donnie have a chance to help. He didn’t explain how he woke up with a wail caught in his throat, phantom pain in his arms and chest alike chasing away any semblance of exhaustion. He didn’t explain how his mind made sure he knew, vividly, that if one thing went wrong with his portal, then he would have never seen Leo again.

He didn’t explain, and he didn’t have to. Leo knows his brothers better than he knows himself, and Mikey has always been easy to read. So it’s no trouble to let Mikey know that he’s still with them, that Leo is here and alive with everyone else. And when Mikey finally regains his exhaustion and falls asleep leaning against Leo, Leo simply maneuvers him into a more comfortable position and stays by his side.

He doesn’t move, doesn’t go to sleep - not that he could, anyway. He just mindlessly scrolls on his phone, the soft snores of his little brother filling the room. He stays in place, awake, because he wants to be sure that when Mikey wakes up again it’s to the immediate sight that Leo is alive and well and home.

And, if Leo’s bring honest, that’s a reminder not just for Mikey’s sake.

Wei Wuxian and Narrative Agency – Part One

For Xiantober Day One: Genius… albeit stretching the prompt so it refers to MXTX and MDZS itself, but at the end of the day it’s still about WWX – so no harm done!

(Part Two | Part Three | Full version on AO3)

The narrative is a very active player in MDZS’ story. How it presents information, what it chooses to show and omit, often reflects important facets of its themes and characters – Nie Huaisang, for instance, is so good at hiding behind his mask that not even the narrative can hold him accountable; the present day’s storyline as a murder mystery and the slow reveal of information about the past both prompt the reader to think critically about the truth of events, when the importance of thinking critically is an important theme; and the dangers not thinking critically (and instead basing conclusions on rumours without much evidence) are shown by tricking unquestioning readers into the very same trap the cultivation world falls into, as the information given by the title, summary and in-universe rumours – which contradicts how we see actually Wei Wuxian act – turns out to be false.

But nowhere do I love this trait more than in its treatment of Wei Wuxian – and, more specifically, in its way of emphasising his agency. We’re not just told how much his active choices define his character, and we’re not just shown this in-universe through his personality, worldview and the events he causes. I’d argue that this aspect goes a step further, and shapes the structure of the out-of-universe narrative as well.

There are two main ways this happens: one, in how the aspects of Wei Wuxian’s life that are shown and hidden directly tell us what’s important about his character (which is good writing but isn’t necessarily tied to this shaping of the narrative), which is what we’ll explore today; and two, how what’s shown and hidden reflects what Wei Wuxian himself prefers to dwell on, resulting in the narrative respecting his own thoughts and feelings on matters (which very much is tied to it). We’ll explore this at a later date.

But as for now – let’s explore my favourite aspect of MDZS.

(Here, narrative agency will be considered the ability of a character to meaningfully influence their events and the story they’re in.)

Tragedy, Circumstance, Choice

If we simply look at Wei Wuxian’s backstory in a vacuum, it seems almost typically tragic. His  parents died in circumstances beyond his control, he was left alone as a child with nobody to care for him, he was forced to grow up fending for himself on the streets, he was faced with abuse when he finally was taken in… as with all typical woobies, everything simply happened to him, and none of it was good. It’s just another example of the lack of agency being used for sympathy points, right?

…Except there’s one problem with that idea. We don’t actually see any of this.

It would’ve been easy to start the flashbacks during these times. We’re telling the story of Wei Wuxian in (largely) chronological order, and these are likely important experiences for him! But instead of starting in his street days, or evenat the moment Jiang Fengmian took him in*, we start at the lectures in the Cloud Recesses. That’s not even something mentioned in, and therefore something that’s able to disprove, the rumours at the start of the novel. So why is this the case? 

Well, there are multiple reasons – the main one being that MDZS is also Lan Wangji’s (and Wangxian’s) story, and having the flashbacks open with their first meeting is very satisfying. But I want to focus on something else.

This period doesn’t have to be shown, because what happens to Wei Wuxian, especially out of his control, isn’t what’s important about his character.

We’re not even at Lotus Pier here, where Wei Wuxian certainly has more agency than he would’ve had as a young child, but where the harm caused by Madame Yu is still completely out of his control. Here, he has agency! Though there are consequences, he is free to act, and what happens to him is a result of those actions and not of circumstance. Yes, he gets punished more than others who also take those same actions (due to classism); yes, it’s not his choice to be picked on by Lan Qiren in class (yet look how he responds, twisting the situation to his advantage and ending up tricking Lan Qiren into letting him leave, which is what he wanted to do. He is not at all helpless here!); yes, these choices have been influenced by his learned mindset from Madame Yu that punishment is arbitrary and will happen anyway, so you may as well do what you want regardless. But there is cause-and-effect here. It’s not circumstantial tragedy.

Therefore, instead of our first impression of past!Wei Wuxian being that of an unfortunate woobie, it’s of someone who has the freedom, ability and will to choose and act (and that’s after these initial tragic events have taken place). This is compounded by the fact that before we see any of his backstory, we get a similar impression of him in the present day.

If the purpose of his tragic past was to earn him sympathy points, to make us pity him due to how much he was influenced by events out of his control, this would’ve been a terrible way of going about it… and it’s this that betrays the true reason for its existence. Because now, the flashbacks instead show us how little these tragedies define who he is! From the very start, Wei Wuxian isn’t someone defined by circumstances out of his control, but rather by who he is as a person and by what choices he makes in the present day (which is both a mindset in-universe, and a nice little out-of-universe detail that lines up! Because out-of-universe, this means he’s not defined by sympathy points from a backstory, but rather by his great character writing… aka, by who he is as a person and what choices he makes). And this refusal to be defined by tragedy is a conscious choice on his part, too – but we’ll explore that more later. 

The important thing is that this idea of Wei Wuxian isn’t because of what exists in his past, it’s because of what parts of his past are shown to us (as well as what he chooses to do, with agency, in the present). 

Now, if this relationship between what’s displayed and what’s omitted was just a one-time thing, I might’ve considered it a cool detail or a nice way to establish a character, but not something the narrative is actively focusing on. But it’s a pattern that continues throughout the flashbacks. What, arguably, are the two other most important times in Wei Wuxian’s life where he doesn’t have enough agency to meaningfully influence his circumstances? His three months in the Burial Mounds (before escaping – he managed to assume some control of the circumstances but not enough to substantially reduce his suffering in his time there), and his loss and death during the First Siege. And we’re not shown either of them! We skip to when Wei Wuxian has emerged from the Burial Mounds and is torturing the Wens, or we skip to the present day – both times he has agency once more, because, again, what he’s like without it doesn’t matter enough to be shown. 

Furthermore, I’d argue this does actually contrast the other tragic events we see in Wei Wuxian’s later life. Things do go horribly wrong, but it’s either due to choices he knows the consequences of (see: rescuing the Wen Remnants in the first place), or instances where he still has some ability to act in the situation and influence it within the limitations. If he’d had no ability to influence circumstances at Qiongqi path, he would have died in the ambush; if he’d been unable to do that at Nightless City, he would’ve died then, too (of course Lan Wangji helped him escape as well). The attention drawn to him losing control of his actions in both instances is very interesting, but intentional or not, it’s still his actions influencing the plot. And that influence happens to be detrimental. The very ability to act and influence, at a base level,  is not taken away (though, of course, that doesn’t make these events any less tragic).

So, so far, the narrative seems to be telling us that the ability to act and choose is key to Wei Wuxian’s character. And it’s doing it through omitting his moments without agency in favour of instead showing us his moments with it. 

Let’s see if this is echoed in the text itself before we go further – because even with this pattern, nothing would end up mattering if Wei Wuxian’s agency wasn’t actually that important to the story itself. But thankfully it is, and that first impression we get of Wei Wuxian in the Cloud Recesses turns out to very much be accurate! Though there are defining circumstances out of his control that occur, such as the massacre of Lotus Pier, the majority of the important events of his life are due to his own choices. He didn’t happen to be forced to cease traditional cultivation and solely use guidao, didn’t happen to lose his Golden Core in a fight with Wen Zhuliu or due to some force in the Burial Mounds, it was his own choice to give it and his spiritual powers away. He didn’t tragically happen to get targeted by the cultivation world, it was a result of him acting on his morals and protecting the Wen remnants (a choice which he was fully aware of the implications of). He isn’t a protagonist to whom things simply occur, and that activeness and agency is my favourite thing about him. 

That’s not to say that the times Wei Wuxian doesn’t have agency, or feels like he doesn’t have any, don’t exist at all, either – but they are rare enough to have attention directly drawn to them in his internal narration:

Or else what could he do? He could do nothing. He was powerless. Lotus Pier had been destroyed, both Jiang FengMian and Madam Yu were gone, and Jiang Cheng had disappeared as well. He was the only one left, alone, with not even a sword in his hands. He didn’t know anything, he couldn’t do anything! For the first time, he discovered how little his power was. In front of something as large as the QishanWen Sect, it was the same as a mantis trying to stop a chariot. - Chapter 59, EXR translation

(And even in this circumstance, note that he still does force himself to act – to carry on searching for Jiang Cheng, to place his faith in Wen Ning – and does accomplish his goal (albeit with the help of others)! So even in dire situations, he isn’t simply passive. This is actually also the case with his time in the Burial Mounds, almost certainly the First Siege, and even his days on the streets as well (Chapter 20: he did actively fight with dogs to get food despite their danger and his growing fear of them, rather than just waiting and hoping to somehow receive some more). He can’t influence or immediately influence his circumstances, but that doesn’t stop him from trying.)

Overall, although they do influence him, Wei Wuxian is very much who he is in spite of his circumstances, not because of them. We’re shown the importance of his agency both in-universe by the major impacts his choices have on himself and the plot, as well as by narrative presentation – important periods where he lacks the ability to meaningfully influence anything are often mentioned but not directly shown, which suggests that such moments and circumstances aren’t as important to understanding Wei Wuxian’s character as moments where he does have this agency are. And I’d argue this works very well. Depending on the version of the story you consume, you may end up having different interpretations as to how much circumstances were at play nearer the end of his life – but nobody comes out of MDZS thinking about Wei Wuxian, the poor bearer of yet another generically tragic backstory.

*We are shown this moment in more detail in Chapter 23… but even then, it’s through the framing of Wei Wuxian remembering Jiang Yanli’s narration, not through a flashback proper or even him remembering the experience itself!

[puppppppppy]

its so hard to watch time pass when things like careers and assignments exist. what do you mean im supposed to take that seriously

[lavendernlilac]

Hnnnghh,,,lazy sex. Grian being half awake watching tv, just chilling with a nightshirt and panties on, Scar walking in(from patrol or just being in the other room) and flopping down behind her, arms wrapping around her waist. They’re sleepy but not quite ready to fall asleep so Grian takes Scars hands and adjusts one to her breast and the other onto her crotch.

He catches on and gently starts kneading her chest through the shirt while slipping her panties to the side to roll her clit under the pad of his finger, slowly getting her wet.

After a few minutes, he takes one hand away to extract his cock from whatever pants he has on and guides it against her hole, steadily pushing in. He just slightly rocks against her(it’s mostly just cockwarming). This goes on for awhile, maybe they even fall asleep for a bit and wake up and continue. Either way, it’s just serene and cozy, and they’re both content.

-bodypillow/massage anon <3

anon I need you to know that you are single-handedly enabling my brain rot for this au and I appreciate you so much for it omg. serene, cozy, sleepy sex…. they’d be so soft about it too.

hm. hmmmmm. another drabble,,,,

Grian lets out a yawn as she relaxes on the couch, watching whatever’s happened to catch her interest on t.v. This time it’s a show she’s familiar with, an ongoing prank war between friends that continues to get more out of control. A diss track has been made, and Grian can only be thankful it’s actually good.

There’s nothing worse than being a musician being forced to listen to something terribly made.

It’s been a long day, one full of interview after interview, and she’s grateful to be home. She loves being Ariana Griande, and everything that comes with it. But sometimes she just wants to flop on a comfortable surface with glasses rather than contacts and a comfy shirt. Which is how she is now, relaxing after an eventful afternoon.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she looks up, seeing Scar approach. It’s been a long day for him as well, considering Hotguy was with her from the first interview to the last. Now though, it’s only them. No alter egos or masks. They can act as normal people, until the next call beckons them. But future Grian can worry about that.

“Hey,” she greets, earning a smile from her boyfriend.

“Grian! Fancy seeing you here,” Scar returns. How he has some energy after their tiring day, Grian doesn’t have the faintest clue.

Still, she snorts, “It’s my apartment Scar, of course I’d be here.” She follows it with a fond shake of her head. “Gonna come join me?”

“Of course.” Scar’s smile brightens as he comes around the couch, flopping down behind her. Grian’s never been more thankful that a) her couch can comfortably fit two people and b) she has a small stature. She feels him throw an arm over her waist, moving until her back is against his chest. Scar rests his head on the same pillow she’s using, pressing a kiss to her hair. “Did I miss anything fun?”

Grian sighs in contentment, already melting against him. “Nothing besides a diss track and a failed heist,” she answers, moving so that her head is comfortably under Scar’s jaw. She feels his hand slowly stroke her side, moving down to her thigh and trailing her hip. She hums softly, enjoying the touch. Scar’s hand is warm, sending tingles down her spine. It could almost put her to sleep, if she were ready for bed.

“Awww, what do you mean I missed it? G, they hyped that up so much,” Scar whines, making her giggle at him.

“I’ll rewind it for you, you big baby,” she huffs affectionately, grabbing the remote.

They fall into silence after that, as the two of them lay there together. Grian’s breaths are even, relaxed, soft. She can feel the steady rhythm of Scar’s heart against her, bringing a sense of comfort as she rests. She finds herself in that weird state of being sleepy but not enough for her to actually fall asleep. Not that she minds though, she gets to actually enjoy being awake and snuggling with Scar.

He hasn’t stopped moving his hand, lingering on her thigh as his thumb leaves light strokes against her skin. It’s not even that big of a movement, but in Grian’s sleepy state it leaves her feeling nice and warm, wanting to be touched more.

“Scar…”

“Hmm?”

She reaches for the arm underneath her, nudging his hand to her chest. As for the other, she encourages the hand on her thigh to move lower. Grian doesn’t say anything else, letting her nudges tell Scar what she wants. Of course he understands her immediately, fondling her chest over her shirt. He kneads her breasts with nothing short of attention and care; Grian sighing softly in contentment. Scar gently squeezes her, thumb brushing over a nipple.

His other hand slips under her panties, reaching her clit. He rolls his finger over the sensitive bud, rubbing it in light circles. Pleasure drips through Grian immediately, between the two spots, and she sinks against him.

“A..h, yes…” she whispers, eyes falling shut.

Scar kisses her head, pressing his cheek against her hair. He continues kneading her chest, keeping the cotton layer of her nightshirt between his palm and her skin. Had he been more awake, he might’ve moved so he could take her into his mouth, but this is just as good.

Each roll of his finger against her clit causes Grian to grow wetter, dampening both Scar’s finger and her panties. She hums softly at the pleasant feeling, making quiet noises. The television becomes distant white noise as Grian becomes absorbed by just Scar, the feeling of his hands touching her. He moves the pad of his finger in gentle, slow circles, the pressure feeling quite nice. Grian moves her hand down to hold his arm, whining lightly at the soft rubs. She rocks into it lazily, not committing to the movement. It makes Scar chuckle.

This continues for a few minutes, neither of them in any particular rush. Grian basks under Scar’s attention, loving it. He briefly pushes his finger inside her, and she moans at the feeling, hearing the quiet wetness of the movement.

Scar hums behind her, pleased with how wet she’s become. He rolls his finger a few more times, soaking up her quiet hums before pulling his hand away. Grian makes a disappointed sound, and Scar’s chest rumbles with a laugh. “I’m not going anywhere, princess.” He reaches into his shorts, pulling his hardening cock free. He gives it a few strokes before pushing her panties to the side, guiding himself toward her warmth. Scar gently presses inside her, making sure to go slow.

Grian moans at the intrusion, his length filling her up. She whines and whimpers, Scar’s other hand still kneading her chest.

“Okay?” Scar whispers.

“Okay,” Grian returns, unable to keep her voice from sounding shaky. It only worsens as Scar lightly rocks against her in lazy movements. “Feels good.”

Scar’s arm returns to her waist, draping over her. “Good, m’too,” he mumbles. “Love you, G.” He keeps up with the light movements, slowly pressing his cock inside her. Grian’s noises are still quiet, though they do rise in pitch with each gentle rock of Scar’s hips. Some of his own quiet moans and sighs tangle with hers.

“Nh, I love y’too, Scar,” she sleepily answers with a light slur, the fire in her gut mostly being quelled now. She doesn’t mind just lying like this, letting the peaceful atmosphere wash over her, push her toward slumber. It’s so cozy and warm, and Grian feels so nice.

It’s inevitable really, that they fall asleep like that, wrapped up in each other.

Too scared

Warning(s)/info: Featuring Miki’s uncle, Miki getting hurt, reader’s discretion is advised, i apologize in advance, modern au

Tanjiro and Mikitama are walking through the mall, hand-in-hand, when Tanjiro sees something, letting go to grab it and show it to his girlfriend. “Hey, angel look at th- angel???” He looks around worriedly, unsure of where she could’ve gone.

He walks around, looking around for her worriedly.

Tanjiro’s eyes widen when he sees Miki with her uncle.

Haruki grins as Mikitama takes shaky steps, following him with tears in her eyes.

Tanjiro rushes over and carefully takes Miki away from Haruki.

Before Tanjiro can say anything, Mikitama steps towards Haruki.

Tanjiro looks at her in confusion and worry. “A-angel..? What are you d-doing???”

Miki gulps nervously. “I-it’s for the best, Tanji…” She responds in a soft shaky voice, squeaking when Haruki grabs her arm roughly and pulling her along.

Tears fill Tanjiro’s eyes and he quickly calls Giyuu, explaining the situation.

“Tanjiro, you need to stall them until I can get there, okay?” Giyuu asks as the sound of jangling keys hits the phone’s receiver.

“Y-yes, sir. I can do that.” Tanjiro sniffles and wipes his eyes then grabs Miki’s wrist, pulling her back.

The two teenagers’ eyes widen when Haruki growls and lunges at them, Tanjiro reacts quickly and guards Mikitama.

He holds her tightly as he uses his body to shield her.

“Give me back my niece!!!” Haruki yells and Miki trembles as she clings to Tanjiro.

“Not in a million years!” Tanjiro says as he tightens his protective hold on Mikitama.

Moments later, Giyuu comes into the mall and makes a beeline for Mikitama, Tanjiro, and Haruki.

He starts arguing with Haruki and Miki’s eyes widen in fear as she notices her uncle fiddling with something in his pocket.

Tanjiro tries to stop her as she rushes to shove Haruki away from Giyuu while the former starts to pull out a knife.

Miki cries out in pain when the knife stabs into her stomach

“A-ANGEL!!!” Tanjiro shouts and rushes over, shoving Haruki away from Mikitama as Giyuu watches in shock.

Tears roll down his cheeks as Tanjiro holds Mikitama close in one arm while calling 911 with his free hand.

Giyuu slowly walks over, tears filling his eyes as he drops to his knees.

He takes Mikitama’s unconscious and bloody form in his arms.

“B-baby….” Giyuu whispered shakily, cupping Miki’s cheek in one hand, stroking the skin with his thumb.

The ambulance and police shows up a moment later and the nurses rush in and lift Mikitama onto the stretcher as the police take Haruki away.

The nurses ask Giyuu questions about what happened, also attempting to ask Tanjiro, who is far too distraught to answer them.

They let Giyuu and Tanjiro onto the ambulance with all of them.

Upon arrival to the hospital, Miki is immediately admitted to the intensive care unit where they will perform emergency surgery on her.

After the surgery, they allow Giyuu and Tanjiro into her room to stay with her.

Mikitama is hooked up to a heart monitor, an I.V., and medicine that will keep her asleep so she’ll get the rest she needs.

The sight is truly heartbreaking.

“M-Miki, why didn’t you just let it be me..?” Giyuu asks the sleeping girl in a shaky, teary voice as he holds one of her hands in his…

Finished my under 5K AU for the @ficwip August challenge and it clocks in at…4975 words lmao

Also, this is the fic I’ve posted about as coal before and I have changed the name, and elaborated on the concept. There will be a sequel coming from Roy’s perspective where this is from Jamie’s.

I’ll put another snippet under the cut (cw abuse):

Jamie Tartt was sixteen years old when he realised his father would likely kill him one day, the first time a forearm pressed against his throat and made it impossible to breathe, the first time Jamie realised he might have survived the night, but his luck wouldn’t last forever.

It was the first time Jamie learned it was safer to not fight back.

It had only been a little shove—a slight push after James had grabbed Jamie’s hair in his fist and pressed his face so close to his that James’ alcohol-tinged breath made his eyes water. Just enough to give Jamie some space, nothing compared to the marks his father’s hands had left on Jamie’s body over the years, but that was all it took to set James off. That was all it took for him to ensure Jamie never forgot this particular lesson.

[quinn-pop]

yet another oc that only exists because i wanted to write something very specific

(middle is a little older, hence her scar healing. i like to think she gets a glass eye at some point)

anyway this is mira! (they/she) since that wip is almost 20k words and counting i won’t give away too much but long story short she’s the result of meta going “one last time, i promise” and adopting yet another kid

also galaxia kinda indirectly picked the name :)

i’ve mentioned before that i headcanon that pretty much all astrals are autistic and this is just kinda an extension of that. whereas meta tends to suppress his emotions and conform to others, mira…doesn’t. she gets uncomfortable and upset and lashes out at people easily, and working through their emotions is no small task.

the main reason i chose to write them that way was for the sake of narrative but i’ve grown attached to it because there’s a lot of ideas there i’d like to explore. stuff about navigating emotions and relationships when existing is so suffocatingly uncomfortable. it’s not something i could center around Kirby himself, but i think it makes sense with a post character development meta knight.

they are very loved (omg oldee cameo???)

kirby was definitely very excited to have younger siblings after being used to being the youngest in the room for so long!! (with the like. one and only exception being gooey.) he’s super affectionate with both of them and wants to have a close relationship one day, but for now mira is pretty unappreciative of that fact lol. they don’t like being pestered for hugs

everyone else is okay tho

(i know that’s hard to read. oops. “obvious bite marks”. siblings being siblings.)

mira also has a very love/hate relationship with the egg kid, being so close in age they kinda Have to get along but in typical sibling nature they also fight a lot. sure it’s probably rough for a while but i think in the end they’d be good buddies. maybe not as close as Kirby and Bandee but still.

anyway i have a lot of thoughts and am very busy but. i’m really enjoying writing about all this lately it’s been fun ^^

[the-woman-upstairs]

Betting on Daniel’s S3 plotline being the gay vampiric version of Almost Famous. No way Lestat’s going on tour without someone to chronicle all the insanity that’ll ensue plus Daniel would absolutely jump at the chance to get Lestat’s side of the story. It’s the perfect setup.
