#if my brother does something horrible my dad will say my mom is the reason hes grown up this way

[mayisgoingnuts]

MT!ROY

I decided to accept that he's not that deep (/hj) and made my own version of him, mostly because of lore reasons.

TW for mentions of CSA and parent issues

Tagging the crew @merwynsartblog @clownazon @sunny6677 @bulldog-geckorahhhhh @catsockpuppet @royphobia @luzxii @articus-icecream

Leaving the info under the cut because it's long

PERSONALITY/HIMSELF

— His "toughness" changes depending who he's talking to. He'll easily be an ass to people who he can clearly beat up, but it changes if it's someone his age for example. The only thing that makes him truly chicken out is if he notices that he has ZERO, NO chance or if the other person is clearly nuts. Other factors can creep him out aswell but then it's specific.

— Gray-ace, experiences sexual attraction very rarely. However he doesn't care enough about labels to search more about, and simply thinks that he's bisexual.

— Roy is more of a cat person but also really likes dogs. He just finds both of them dumb and funny./pos

— His vision isn't THAT bad right now, but it'll get worse with time. He does forget, but when he notices it he pretends not to.

— Resting pissed face.

— Tends to stim whenever he's too happy, either verbally or physically. He'll either start to stutter a bunch of gibberish or move his hands, normally pulling his sweater.

— 97% of the things he says with his friends would get him hated on the internet. Most of them are fucked up jokes. (<- don't feel bad for his friends they're just as fucked up they laugh their asses off)

FAMILY

— Vanido comes from Carmen, while Richelieu comes from Richard. His uncle is named Charles Richelieu, and is Richard's brother.

— Talks more easily to his dad than to his mom. Although it's mostly either short talks or awkward.

— Roy does loves them but still wish they were nicer and "less annoying". It mostly goes to his mom.

— Charles was a "disappointment" to his type of family and consequently Carmen disliked him, but Richard still has an attachment since they were quite close. That's also why he trusted Roy to go visit him by himself sometimes.

— Carmen almost ended up being more strict than she already is, but harsher demands caused Roy to actually express sadness, discomfort or panic, which made her feel bad and give up.

— They don't like him wearing eyeliner because they think it doesn't fit him at all.

— The only reason Roy won't stay up late (since he gets to be alone) it's because his parents won't let him. If he's caught awake after 00:00 he's scolded, and depending on how many times consecutive, grounded.

SCHOOL

— Studies in a private school and can't tolerate half of his colleagues. There's some cool ones there, but meh.

— Roy already participated in a LOT of school activities, or just activities in general, because his parents wanted him to. It includes violin, golf, advanced classes, swimming, badminton and ice skating. He hates most of these, but has a 'special spot' for badminton.

— Cheats a lot. He has the potential to be smart, but prefers to not take the effort to not explode./hj

— Most teachers don't like him and he's fully aware of that, but every year there's atleast ONE who'll hold a grudge after a single misbehaviour and then proceed to annoy him for no reason.

— Hates the uniform. It has short sleeves and he doesn't like short sleeves. Plus he just finds it ugly.

MENTAL HEALTH (?)

— Neither Roy or his family knows about his BPD or autism, in a diagnosis sense. They just think he's stubborn and going through puberty at maximum, while Roy himself just doesn't know nothing about it. He knows a little about autism because Robert's family is autistic, but assumed he has nothing to do with it for being the complete opposite of them.

— Has a horrible habit of pulling his own hair when too angry and/or stressed. Ross and Robert try to make him stop doing that, and to not have them to worry, Roy decided to try something else, such as biting his cap. It works, but only does it sometimes because he feels like an animal (/vneg) and because he's afraid he might ruin his hat.

— Roy nowadays feels really shitty in the dark thanks to the mansion. It's not exactly scared, more like uncomfortable. Feels worse if it's a big space.

— Roy already fought with Ross and Robert once, and it ended up making him see them as the wrong ones and just bad people because of a single fail. He hated staying by himself, and had thanked God that they decided to approach and apologize, because Roy didn't had the guts to.

— Bullying other kids without being stopped makes him better as he finally feels like being in charge of something.

— As much as Roy finally "knowledged" his own SA, he didn't fully did. Since his struggles with his family are more obvious and constant, that part ended up being "pushed aside" and he still finds it not a big deal; specially because Roy didn't even know what was happening at the time. He'll only face it in the future.

I know you don't like the idea of Hilda's father actually appearing, but would you at least be interested in finding out who he is and some other information?

No.

The fundamental reason I'm opposed to anything involving Hilda's dad is because he doesn't add anything to the narrative, and in my eyes, can only harm it. "Who is Hilda's father" is a question that the series doesn't need to resolve, and should never have tried to answer.

For starters, one of the biggest things I like about this show is that Johanna is a single mum and that's okay - it's not entirely swept under the rug, it's acknowledged and she gets judged for it by Frida's parents (because some people are judgemental about non-traditional families) - but it's made clear repeatedly in episodes like The Troll Rock and The Yule Lads that Johanna is the only parent Hilda needs and that there's nothing wrong with her being a single mum; Frida's mum is explicitly a bad person for trying to call Johanna out on it.

But that's not to say Johanna is the only family Hilda has or the only person she needs; on top of her friends she has Alfur, Tontu, and Twig, all of whom are important to her and vice-versa and all of who form part of a really well-done family dynamic. It's important to me, in light of that, that Hilda's dad doesn't matter - he's not in her life and that's all that needs to be said because she already has all the family she needs (this isn't something specific to Hilda, but it's something it does very well - for another example, see Phineas and Ferb. They're brothers and have an older sister and a mom and dad, and the fact that they're actually step-siblings doesn't change that; you don't see people asking who Ferb's bio mom is because it doesn't matter Linda is the parent who's in his life).

On top of that, I think that nothing the show can realistically do would be better than leaving the question open. Hilda is aimed at kids 12-and-under; it doesn't play down to its audience, but by its very nature it can't get into some heavier topics. There's a very loose implication in the graphic novels, and to an extent in the show, that Johanna has some kind of rough past, and that's enough.

Maybe Hilda's father was a horrible person, or abandoned the family; maybe he died and Johanna doesn't like talking about it; maybe Hilda was even adopted or something. Those are all far, far more interesting possibilities than the route canon has chosen to take, but they're also the kind of things I want to see explored in fanworks, not in the show itself. Because it's central to the family dynamic in this show that he isn't in Hilda's life, and that he has no place in her life, and that's okay; Hilda has all the family she needs already.

I have my own headcanons, and I'm choosing those headcanons over Season 3; I hope this puts any questions about why to bed. I'm sorry if this is harsh or negative, but it's how I feel. Please don't ask me anything else about Hilda's father - if you want to be excited about Season 3, that's fine, but it's just not Hilda to me.

Moon: evilracoon.jpg

Moon has added two people to Who Took My Hat?

Lunar: Oh hi, leave.

Sun: Oh come on, you're already KC's baby mama with Eclipse and the twins. Might as well make use of that.

Moon: I know where you sleep.

Sun: Yeah, in my room, right next to yours. Right across from Lunar's new room.

Lunar: Wait, I have a room? Have I been sleeping in the theater for no reason?

Sun: Yes? We thought you were just isolating for some reason.

Lunar: Obviously not. I didn't know I had a room.

Moon: Lunar, we told you that room was yours.

Lunar: I thought you said 'Lunar, this room is ours' I thought it was like a living room or something.

Moon: Why would we need a living room? We already have one of them in the main balcony room.

Lunar: I don't know!

Moon: Get your adorable little self up there and look at your room, kid. We worked too hard on that room for it to be a 'living room'! /hj

Lunar: Oh, it's wonderful!

Sun: happylunar.pic

Eclipse: Daaaaad, how come Lunar get fairy lights and I can't have LED lights!?

Kill Code: You'd use them to torment your brothers. Probably put them on quick strobe when Blood Moon goes into your room.

Eclipse: Nooo. I want my room to look orange!

Kill Code: Fine, you can have orange set LEDs, that it. Orange only.

Blood Moon: If he gets LEDs I want a dimmer.

Harvest Moon: Can I get a brighter nightlight?

Bolide: Nightlights are an option? Can I get a nightlight?

Heliosphere: Can I have lights that don't turn off?

Kill Code: You all get new lights.

Harvest Moon: Trash Can broke my nightlight.

Kill Code: Kick him.

Harvest Moon: I can't, Bloody already bit him.

Blood Moon: He harassed my baby brother. He deserved it.

Kill Code: Acceptable.

3:16pm Who Took My Hat?

Bolide: Dad, this weird guy is touching my back, what do I do?

Kill Code: Tell Blood Moon to smack him.

Blood Moon: The Trash Can has been dealt with.

Kill Code: Kick him extra for harassing my youngest.

Blood Moon: He moans when I kick him, I'm not doing that.

Sun: I'm so confused.

Moon: They have this weird guy they call Trash Can in their house-base thing who's really fucking weird. Blood Moon says he's disgusting. I think he's been exposed to way too much magic because he's immortal no matter how many times they kill him.

Kill Code: In all honesty, I believe Blood Moon lost a lot of his interest in killing due to this weird man but, now that I've brought him to the home once, he finds his way back inevitably no matter where I leave him to abandon him.

Harvest Moon: I hate him, he's weird.

Blood Moon: He's creepy, there's a difference. He still calls Dad 'Penelope'.

Eclipse: I'm still apparently Marie.

Blood Moon: Cry about it, I'm still getting called Delilah.

Harvest Moon: I'm still Courtney.

Heliosphere: He called me Amy like an hour ago.

Moon: You've been unfortunately christened, you poor little bastard.

Bolide: Wait, he was meaning me when he was muttering about Rosa? I thought he was just talking to himself.

Moon: Oh, you poor thing.

Bolide: Does this mean I'm Bolide or Rosa!?

Moon: Bolide.

Kill Code: Bolide.

Eclipse: Bolide.

Blood Moon: Bolide.

Harvest Moon: Bolide.

Sun: F in chat for the murder family getting called by women's names by some creep that won't leave their home.

Moon: F

Eclipse: F

Blood Moon: F

Harvest Moon: F

Kill Code: F

Heliosphere: F

Bolide: F

Lunar: Suffer.

[bonefall]

how is bramblepaw’s characterization since it is shown that bramblestar is an actively bad person instead of “oh he’s a good guy uwu” while he is 100% fine with letting kits die for some land

Something I want to say with my rewrite, but I'm not sure how, is that power is an amplifying sort of force. Someone who's a pretty... normal sort of bad can do a LOT more harm without even meaning to, when power is added to the mix.

But I'm not sure how to show that, in the story itself.

Bramblepaw

Anyway, Bramblepaw is just a kid. He's a kid and Darkstripe sneaks him out to meet his dad, only to find out his dad's a horrible murderer. He sees violent death at a young age; Runningwind, then his older brother Swiftpaw.

Firestar takes him as an apprentice, only for Bramble to find out he did it because he's always been suspicious of him. That nice man he met, Leader of ShadowClan, the one who smiled and looked at you with such love, he's the reason why you don't see Mr. Runningwind anymore. That's why Cousin Cinderpelt's leg hurts in bad weather. That's why the whole Clan looks at you like that.

All the while, Tigerstar is demanding his children, since ThunderClan couldn't protect his oldest. Bramblepaw has only ever known fear and distrust from a very young age.

I imagine that the real turning point of his life was watching Tawnypaw leave. He had his cousins, he had his mom, but something about watching her vanish into the night... he felt so alone. He felt like he lost something that he will never get back.

Suffering doesn't make you a better person, it just hurts. Every horrible thing that Bramble does is in some desperate attempt to prevent people from leaving him, or to not "lose" something. Respect, Clanmates, Lovers...

Bramblestar

So, power. He never should have had it.

As a regular warrior the sort of damage he can do is limited. Think to the time in TNP when Squirrelflight broke up with him and he acted like a dick to her for several chapters. It was shitty, but AT MOST he could just embarrass her in front of her mom and yell at her a lot.

Tweak the writing a bit so that the Clan isn't completely oblivious to this being an abusive dynamic, and Squilf could have found a lot of support here.

But add power to the mix, and Bramble's mind games suddenly encompass the entire Clan. In Canon Squirrelflight's Hope, you can SEE the cycle of abuse taking place, the same way you see it in TNP. But this time, Squilf disobeying her husband also means disobeying the Clan Leader. Every political action she takes is also an action that affects her romantic life.

So it's not necessarily that Bramblestar is best described as, 'ok with letting the kits die for some land.' It's not about the land. It's about controlling Squirrelflight. It's about proving to himself that she won't make him lose face, that she won't make him lose control of his clan, and also, that no matter WHAT he does or decides, that he won't lose her as well.

EVERYTHING gets lost in pursuit of that goal. Everything. The personhood of the sisters, the kits, the well being of the Clan at large.

"Why are you doing this to me?!" He shouts, when Squirrelflight is trying to save the life of a dying cat by preventing him from intimidating a medic. He's only thinking about himself.

That's it. That's the motivation. He's not a Machiavellian psychopath who thinks baby-eating is cool. It's carelessness. It's selfishness. It's control.

Everything gets lost in the pursuit of what he wants. He's just a mediocre manchild who failed upwards, and an incompetent leader looks an awful lot like a malicious one.

Rewrite

He actually doesn't become deputy in Bonefall TNP. It's a sudden choice that Firestar makes after Brackenfur shows up dead, and shortly after that Bramblestar is thrust into power.

I think his best moment in my rewrite is right after he fights Hawkfrost to save Firestar, when he agrees that he needs to step down, and serves as a faithful warrior for a while.

That's the moment in his life when he does the most introspection, and is probably the healthiest and happiest version of Bramble that he will ever be. It's short-lived, as it all comes crashing down by the end of Po3... but for a few years, he was just Brambleclaw, Normal Guy.

Idk. I think about him a lot. They should invent cat therapy and study his fucked up little kitty brain.

[mermaidsirennikita]

Please people are now speculating Rose Hanbury's twins are actually William's and how he wants to divorce Kate so he can marry Rose but that would cause a succession crisis because the eldest son would have a better claim to the throne than George 💀

Lmao I've seen the main user speculating about that. They in fact, does not know shit about how this works. And I wanna get into how hard they don’t know how this works.

a) He ain't doing that. Like, I don't know him, but I'd be really surprised if that happened. I think that is a horrible dude, but those are still three kids who've known him as their father and have known their role in this family their entire lives. I think we'd have to go from "an abusive husband and bad father" level to "a psychopath" level for that lmao.

And I mean... listen. William is clearly all about the firm. Those kids? Are in the same place he was in. I think he prioritizes legal, legitimate children born in wedlock over some by-blows~ (their words, not mine!) lmao.

b) It would not in fact cause a succession crisis.

-Regardless of DNA, unless they wanted to go through the rigmarole of getting the marquess to have his name taken off the birth certificate and William's name added to it, which seems... so unlikely! I mean, it's one thing to claim another man's kids, another to literally say "take my name off the birth certificate, I am a clown". This is a 60-something aristo, and if he doesn't have any legal sons, he has no legal heir. If he's the legal father, that's what matters in terms of succession. The kids don't become legally William's because he marries their mom, says he's the dad, and is the biological father.

-You actually can't change the succession just because you want to! I see people citing the change in the primogeniture-based succession made "for Charlotte" "by Elizabeth". First off, that wasn't actually for Charlotte, it was changed (or set into place, can't remember if they got it done before the birth) before George was born. The idea was that if the firstborn was a girl, a younger brother wouldn't supplant her as heir. George's birth made it irrelevant for William and Kate's kids. The only way that it matters is if something horrible happens to George; Louis can't leapfrog over Charlotte.

Anyway, that didn't happen just because Elizabeth wanted it. There were actual legislative processes involved. It's... a legal process.

If William did ACKNOWLEDGE his children by Rose, if they do exist, this would not suddenly supplant George, or Charlotte, or Louis for that matter. Acknowledgment does not equal legitimizing, and frankly, legitimizing does not mean leapfrogging over the line of succession. Do people honestly think Kate, or for that matter her family, or for that matter WILLIAM'S family who have a vested interest would just... go with that? It would probably cause a legal crisis within the monarchy, and it would also make William look VERY BAD!!! The public that does support the monarchy loves those kids; they're the cute mascots. George's birth was celebrated globally. Money is made off those children.

-Legitimate children of the Prince of Wales/the King of England have access to taxpayer dollars. Just adding 2-3 kids onto that payroll? Haha. Have fun with that.

-Past English kings have acknowledged their illegitimate children. William would not in fact have anywhere near absolute power. Kings who have had close to absolute power? Still haven't been able to get this done lmao. Henry VIII actually had (or was rumored to have) discussions about his acknowledged illegitimate son Henry Fitzroy being legitimized, which would place him in the line of succession over Henry's legal wife's daughter. He didn't even try to get it done... for many reasons. It's not easy, and Henry VIII was actually a lot closer to being able to do whatever he wanted to any king today.

So, the idea of him legitimizing kids born prior to his marriage is very far-fetched if not borderline impossible, and if he did, the kids would not automatically leapfrog over Kate's children, potentially not only supplanting them of their inheritance of the crown, but their inheritance of different monetary/land-related inheritances that they would typically be entitled to or expected to be given by their father.

Like. People need to be REAL FR.

[connectionterminated13]

We haven’t talked in a bit soooooo

Any new Elizabeth headcanons that you want to share?

Yes it has been a while. And I do have a couple.

Inferno au-

Liz cannot do ballet to save her life. Like she's extraordinarily bad at that.

Elizabeth used to try to take her toys apart and put them back together again the way her dad does with robots because she hoped that maybe he'd pay more attention to her if she did so.

Every Friday her and Michael would have movie night! Mike would make a big bowl of popcorn and they watched like soap opera movies And adventure films.

Elizabeth used to bake cookies with her mom on Sundays, For church. They used to sing together while they worked it was a lot of fun

Elizabeth tried to "run away" after Susie disappeared to go and find her, William stopped her, Saying that Susie would be back in like a week and that her disappearance was nothing to worry about.

Elizabeth after you're the missing kid's incident Started sitting on the far side of Freddy's as far away from chica as she could get. She doesn't like the way Chika looks at her. It makes her want to cry for some reason.

Elizabeth would never admit it but she was a little bit scared of Evan when he was alive. There was just something different about him she used to actually make fun of him a little bit for being "slow" And stirring off into space. She'd even join Michael in spooking him occasionally.

One of her first thoughts win stealing Michael skin as Ennard Is now she could kiss women!! Since now she was Michael she was technically a man so she didn't Need that plausible deniability thing her dad told her about. She ended up kissing no women though because turns out Mike didn't have a girlfriend sad :(

She went through and was going through in emo phase as scrap baby. Like she's listening to My Chemical Romance on repeand being like "it's just like me for real for real"

As scrap baby she hidden in alley drink a pride parade once

Elizabeth liked to sing and run around her room really really fast when she was bored or grounded.

Elizabeth was going to go to visit her family on her mom's side, The year her mom got sick and later died.

Death swap-

Elizabeth and Susie are semi open with their status as a couple. Like they hold hands and hug outside but they rarely if ever kiss. It's hard being lesbians in the 1990s in Utah....

Elizabeth is a little bit scared of ghosts after getting her organs ripped out by one. Like she tries to be brave but FNAF one is fucking scary for her. Doesn't help that she doesn't like working and hates doing sitting in a chair nothing work more than she hates normal working.

Susie Wants to have kids when they're older like 30-40, Elizabeth kind of does too but She doesn't think she could be a good mom and also gay marriage wasn't legalized yet let alone gay adoption.

Even though Mike Scares her a little bit after the whole scoop thing she still accepts him as her brother and eventually charlie's partner once they get there. Even though it is hard for her to look at him without Illusion disks or human suit on.

Elizabeth cannot do taxes this nearly leads to her death more than once drank fnaf 6.

Lizzie is terrified of the idea that 1 day Suzie will die and she won't. Sure Elizabeth loves her brother and Charlie and their other friends but life without Susie doesn't feel right at least the way she imagines it.

Elizabeth is the professional cool aunt to Michael and charlie's son Gregory. He thinks she's awesome :)

Lizzie and Millie au-

Liz will never admit it but she prefers to spend time with Jen As opposed to her own Step mom.

Liz isolated herself from like having real friends for a long time since she feared that if anyone got too close she'd hurt them the way Her dad hurts Henry.

Elizabeth tries to reason with any horrible monster things her parents have made before like getting rid of them since she genuinely believes that at least most of them don't want to be horrible murder Creatures.

She thinks no one knows that she's a lesbian everybody does.

She knows how to fence! You see William and Abigail put Her and Evan in a lot of extracurricular activities because they didn't want either of them around.

She can and will sit through a horror movie with a completely blank face. She's just not scared easily. For the majority of her life she's been surrounded by glimpses of monsters so movie ones don't really freak her out.

She has a distinct disdain for Evan's friend Andrew because he's annoying and evan start springing him around the house like often just to annoy her .

Elizabeth envies Millie a lot since she comes from a relatively normal home and Can Express herself more

I imagine that Elizabeth and Millie au, Is like a mystery of the book kind of thing. Like you know it's formatted like a book series of maybe 10 books and each 1 there's 1 big overworking spooky monster that they need to fight/figure out the weakness of. (Not really a head cannon just wanted to add that in here)

[catierambles]

so I had a conversation with my mom. putting it under a Keep Reading because it touches on some subjects that might upset people

My mom called me crying yesterday saying that she had to leave a vacation with my nieces and their dad early because my eldest niece, Kaylynn, is turning into a carbon copy of her mother. Their mother who refuses to go to their track meets because she doesn't want to be bored. Who made my life a living hell growing up and told me to kill myself. Who none of us want anything to do with because of how much of a manipulative (but bad at it) rabid cunt she is. Who my parents completely disowned to the point where my mom gathered up every picture she had of her from baby onwards and burned them.

Apparently their mother has been telling Kaylynn that their grandma was a horrible mother and abused her and everything that's happened to her (Amanda) is her fault. It's bullshit. Amanda (their mom) takes absolutely no accountability for her own actions. It's all everyone else's fault, not hers.

My mom then asked me if she was a terrible mother and she told me to be honest. If you all know me, I have no problems with honesty if I believe the person needs to hear the truth. I won't lie to people, but as I've said many times before, I believe everyone should be honest, but there's a fine line between being an asshole and being honest and that is how you word things.

For example: If my room mate comes to me wearing a new dress or outfit and asks me how she looks, but it doesn't look good, I'm not going to tell her "You look like shit." I'm going to say "Not really your style, I'd go with something else." I still told her that I didn't think it looked good, but I wasn't an asshole about it.

Back to mom.

She asked me if she was a horrible mother and she told me to be honest. Now, in the past, whenever she asked me to be honest about something and then I was, I would get punished because I told her something she didn't actually want to hear. But I'm 1500miles away so fuck it.

I told her she wasn't terrible all the time. She had moments when she was a great mom, but there were a lot of moments when she wasn't. I told her that the reason why I hate asking for help, with anything, is because whenever I did I was yelled at, called stupid, and made to feel like an annoyance and a burden for asking.

Me: Hey, mom, what does this word mean?

Mom: OH MY GOD CATE JUST LOOK IT UP

She doesn't remember any of this.

I told her that she didn't want children. She wanted fully-formed mini-adults who she didn't have to raise and teach and guide because that was all done before, but she got children who she did have to put that effort into and it pissed her off.

My mom was physically abused when she was growing up, by her father and her step-father, beaten severely many times. She had to grow up and be an adult very quickly because that was expected of her as the eldest girl (my mom has 5 brothers and sisters, she's the oldest out of 3 girls, Wilhelm (Billy) is the oldest out of 3 boys). She wasn't allowed to be a child. So when she had children, she didn't know what to do so she fell back on how she was raised.

Now, before you reach for the pitchforks, my mom never laid a hand on us. That was my dads job But it's as if she thought that if she didn't hit us, she wasn't abusing us, but there are many different kinds of abuse. My mom was emotionally and mentally abusive. She was overbearing and overprotective. I didn't need anyone in my life, I just needed her. I didn't need friends, I just needed her. Then there were moments when I was honestly terrified of her. When she would scream at me over the little things until she was red in the face and I was crying, and then she would yell at me for "fake" crying.

My sister lied and said that I swore, she lied a lot to try to get me into trouble and it nearly always worked. My mom yelled at me to admit it, kept saying that I was lying when I said I didn't (because I didn't) and that would make her yell at me more for lying. It culminated in her pushing me to the ground. I told her she pushed me and she said "I didn't push you, you tripped." (gaslighting) My sister eventually fessed up that she only thought I swore and my mom dropped it. I never got an apology. I was 5.

Growing up, she would come into my room in the middle of the night to "check on me" but when she would step on something because my room was messy because I was a child, she would scream at me to wake up and make me clean my room. In the middle of night. Regardless if I had school the next day. This happened many times until she finally got sick of it and threw all my stuff away, ripping posters off the walls, throwing away books and stuffed animals. I tried to hide books in between my mattress and box spring so I would at least have something, my sister who was helping her found them, asked why I had books there and mom responded with "She's a slob, why wouldn't she have them there." She never stopped to think that maybe I was hiding them so they wouldn't get destroyed and why would I have to hide them to begin with.

When I was older and had a drivers license, she would ask me to go to the store, or do this or that, but it was okay if I told her no. If I did tell her no because I was tired from school or work, she would yell at me, calling me lazy and ungrateful, and then she would call my dad to tell him how lazy and ungrateful I was. I had the choice to say no, but god forbid I actually did, so I didn't really have a choice. I had the illusion of a choice.

When I told her that I was moving to Texas, she broke down into tears and begged me to stay because if I moved that far away, she wouldn't be able to visit me. I reminded her that when I was with my ex, living 15minutes away, she didn't visit me.

"But I could have!"

But you didn't.

"I'm not dying, mom, I'm just moving away."

"But it feels like you are!"

She tried to manipulate me into staying to spare her feelings, when being in that house with her was going to kill me. She wanted me to stay because she wanted someone to rely on her, when I haven't relied on her in years at that point. She tried to keep be close, but the more she tightened her grip, the more I pushed her away.

I left anyway because I needed to.

I told her all of this. Every last bit of it. Her response?

"I don't remember any of this."

"Well of course you don't, mom. For you it was Tuesday, for me it's a core memory."

"We were always such great friends when you were growing up."

"Yeah, when I wasn't terrified of you."

She had moments when she was honestly awesome, but then there were moments when she very much wasn't and I didn't think there was anything wrong with that because she wasn't horrible all the time, so that must be normal, right? Spoiler alert, no it isn't. It's not normal. You should never be terrified of your parents. You should never have to walk on eggshells around them for fear of them turning their anger on you. You shouldn't have to think about what you say to them and how you say it for every interaction because you know if you say it a certain way, you'll get screamed at.

Now before you say "Well maybe Amanda has a point." I want you to realize that I didn't turn out like she did. Nature vs Nurture. And also, Amanda was also incredibly abusive to me growing up and was one of my main tormentors (again, she told me to kill myself because no one would miss me anyway).

"Well, she was being bullied, so she bullied you. It's only natural."

Bullshit.

I was bullied. At home and at school and I never treated anyone how I was treated. I know what it's like so I make damn sure no one else feels that way because of me. I don't make other people suffer just because I suffered. I take accountability for my actions. If I fuck up, I own up to it and I make sure I don't do it again. With Amanda everything is everyone else's fault. She has never done anything wrong ever, never will, and if you say she has, it was someone else. No one else has ever experienced what she has in the history of the world and never will. She told our parents they didn't know what it was like to raise two girls and how difficult it was. I'm sorry, what? She said this to our parents who raised us (regardless of how) that they don't understand because they've never done it.

Amanda has some kind of psychopathy. She's malignantly narcissistic to the point where she hurts everyone around her to make everything all about her. She carefully crafts different personas depending on who she's talking to so she appears to be the best most wonderful person they've ever met in their entire life and when she's got their hooks in them and they're dependent on her, the real Amanda comes out.

She tries to manipulate people in her life, but again, she's bad at it, so it's pretty fucking easy to see through it if you know her. It's why we want nothing to do with her. It's why my parents disowned her. She fucks up and she tries to twist it around so it's actually someone else's fault and we should all hate them. They're the horrible person, not her, never her. She's perfect in every way, and if you try to say anything against her, you're evil and everyone should hate you too and she will try to get everyone to hate you.

But I digress

I told mom all of this (before the Amanda bit) and she thanked me for being honest with her. For not sugarcoating it. For straight up telling her "Yeah, you did your best, but your best was shit and it hurt us."

She asked me to forgive her, that she hoped that one day I would be able to forgive her for what she's done.

I'm not Amanda. I got down off that cross years ago, used the wood to build a bridge, and got over it.

I forgave her a long time ago and I told her that. She thanked me again, we talked for a few more minutes on some other things, and that was that.

If you made it this far, have a cookie.

Season 2 ideas - Jeremy, Liane, Joshua, Belladonna and Nikolai are all accidentally stuck in the enchanted forest.

—They have to find a way back home but on their way home they stop by a few stops, meeting old faces and a couple of new ones 👀 meanwhile in the town they have their own little spots of trouble.

Side-note: Idk if we will do another AU season 🤷‍♀️ yet. I still wanna continue the Wandavision one 💘

For the OUAT: We might change some things because i was thinking about Michelle being in the forest as well, she hasn’t been washed over during the first curse. Like maybe Michelle was in hiding after all theses years once the curse broke in real time and makes her grand return saving the day.

———

In the enchanted forest 🌳

Jeremy ties to men up to the tree, shining his hook and asks, “What do you want? Why do you want to go to our town?”

The older brother spat, “Because you have something of ours. Well, more importantly your husband does.”

“Oh god, what did he do now?”

The young brother added, “He has our sister locked in a pendant! Every time someone uses it, it drains her magic.”

Liane asked, “What’s her name?”

“Stella..he lost her to a duel with Gold’s husband..we want her back!”

Meanwhile Belladonna was looking at the young pretty blonde who played with her sword like it was a magical stick. They found her when they landed here and her mother requested she followed them. Joshua watched her eyes line and snorted as his friend told him to shut it.

“I didn’t say anything.” He replied.

“And I said shut it.” She repeated.

Nikolai gave both of them a look and half smiled sheepishly noticing how her son reminded her of his father. Even better, Belladonna reminded him of Cole at times, then he looked back at the brothers.

Nikolai asked, “What are your names?”

“Why do you want to know?” Asked the young one.

Jeremy responded for him, “My first mate asked a question. What are your names? Give me one other reason why I should let you go and not let you be eaten by Ogres.”

“Thiego and Leonardo, pirate. I don’t need to give you another reason onto why..”

“Why?”

“There is nothing for us in this land. Cora is asking us to help her out of a reward.”

“What reward?”

“Go to this new land, get revenge on your husband and most importantly, restore our family.”

Jeremy looked at his niece and nephew at the last part. Joshua was looking into the guys bags and scars on their chins, noticing deep daggers as he mutters, “Stabbington Brothers?”

Nikolai looked at his son raised an eyebrow, “You know them?

Belladonna stopped looking at the blonde to look at the others saying, “It’s from Tangled.”

Liane blinked confused wondering about where is Rapunzel and her man, Flynn Rider, at if theses guys are here.

Jeremy mumbled, “Of course you’ve seen that movie too. At least it’s better that Ames’s movie.”

He gasped in response, “Hey! That movie depicted us horribly..”

Joshua joked, “Yeah, dad, all you did was kiss mom once after one single encounter while she was asleep.”

Bella snorted, “Well my movie they made my dad kinda one dimensional and only slaying my mother instead of helping her.” 

Liane’s eyes almost flashed purple but Nikolai put a hand on her shoulder to just let it go like Elsa.

The brothers were about to question a couple of things, even bargain a deal to help the others. When suddenly a voice caught into the background of the woods.

“There you are, sons of bitches!” Yelled the voice of the young woman who it seemed to belong to.

Everyone looked around to search for the voice in question. Whoever it was, she has a mouth on her! Jeremy grinned as he thought he was dreaming when he heard it. Nikolai smirked not wanting to get his hopes up yet.

The sun was shining across the thick blonde curls as shiny armor came into view, it looked more Royal than most. She held a small smile as she walked over to the group, her sword resting on her hip, her boots pounding against the ground and her eyes bright was the ocean. Liane looked a bit confused onto the women in front of her, almost like she seen her before but the pirate boys beat her to.

“Michelle?” Asked Nikolai and Jeremy at the same time seeing their old friend.

“Who were you expecting? Lancelot?” She joked with a smile, but her glared stayed on the two men tied up against the tree, who robbed her earlier.

Bella, Alice and Joshua were all dumbfounded by the young blonde.

I think Shiv is just as much a victim of their marriage as Tom is, they’ve both wronged each other similar amounts in different ways. Despite this I think Tom effectively won the argument, when I say won I don’t mean that he felt better afterwards, or that he was more “right”, he wasn’t, smh “you won’t have my baby” Tom should’ve maybe talked properly to her about if she wanted kids before he proposed, as having kids is clearly something important to him. He may have been wrong or damn well misogynistic about some criticisms he had of Shiv, but despite this, for want of a better and less cheesy phrase he was saying “his truth” Shiv didn’t really do this or at least not as much as Tom.

When Tom screamed “You were going to see me sent to jail” I sort of understood where he was coming from with his anger here, because even though Shiv was right and he offered to go, and frankly there wasn’t much Shiv could do to help him in that scenario, I think the fact that she barely expressed any happiness and even tried to suppress his own somewhat when he found out he was in fact not going to prison, I generally think she was glad he wasn’t going to prison but it didn’t show at all because of her emotional repression, if I were Tom I would definitely grow resentment if my spouse showed apparent indifference over whether or not I was going to prison. But while I was watching in my head I was like ‘Shiv! He is painting you to be a complete villain, why don’t you tell him that when Logan asked you who you would rather take the fall for cruises Kendall or Tom, you said Kendall, you choose your own brother to take the fall over your husband’ of course Logan was just putting her through emotional torture and would have chosen Kendall anyway, because Logan does what he wants, but shiv doesn’t know that, she was probably under the impression that it was her choice, and she choose to save Tom at the expense of her brother, a level of dedication to him, that I’m not sure that Tom has shown to her at any point, despite being the generally more supportive spouse before his big betrayal. But then I thought of course she didn’t tell him that! If she had that would’ve have basically been a bigger love declaration then any “I love yous” she’s told him in the past, she’s not going to show him that much vulnerability especially when they’re fighting.

The only criticism of substance Shiv gave him was the “you took away the last 6 months away with my dad… you sucked up to him and cut me out” the rest of what she said was petty “your mom likes me more than she likes you, you’re a hick, you’re a snake, a social climber” while Tom told her she was selfish, insecure, broken and incapable of love. Tom was more horrible then she was, because to be that horrible you have let your emotions spill and Shiv was refusing to do that despite the tears in her eyes. Clearly out of everything Tom said what hurt her the most was when Tom said “I think you are perhaps not a good person to have children” (obviously this is a sensitive topic for her because of her traumatic relationship with her own mother, and also the fact she’s fucking secretly pregnant) Shiv could have given Tom reasons why he would be a terrible father or even flung the pregnancy in his face, instead, defeated she said “well, that’s not a very nice thing to say, is it?” To stop herself from breaking down in front of him completely she said “I don’t even like you, I don’t care about you” in such an unconvincing way that I think even Tom must have been able to tell it’s bullshit, but on other hand he is so insecure in his relationship with Shiv, and let’s be honest not without reason, that he likely took her word for it.

thread of some of my scout hcs, thoughts on his personality and little miscellaneous tidbits!

starting off strong by saying that i think he's very emotionally intelligent. knows when his loved ones are upset and will set about doing whatever he can to cheer them up. he defaults to trying to make you laugh since that's what he thinks he's best at, though!

cant always offer the Sagely Advice that one might get from spy, but he'll tell you whats on his mind and what he thinks of the situation. won't mince words; if he disagrees with you, he'll tell you Directly... but Gently. "Uhhh, dunno if i agree with that. think of it this way.."

maybe the last person you'd think to have a heart to heart with, but he might surprise you! he's a good listener and while he prefers to do things while talking (throwing a ball against a wall, pacing, etc), you've got 150% of his attention if the subject matter is serious!

competitive, but more likely to let others win than he is to Rub It In when He wins. battlefield smacktalk to the enemy is one thing, but Some People (not naming names) are VERY sore losers (sniper) so scout's content to botch a few billiards shots if it means that his friend is having fun! :)

cries. only when hes alone! feels like he has to have a good cry now and then to get everything out and to "emotionally reset". doesn't think crying is Girly/Weak or w/e, but he still doesn't like doing it around others. "okay, needed that. shake it off, scout, you're all good!"

VERY scrappy. resourceful through street smarts/intuition as opposed to technical know-how. tenacious and a total wildcard! that said, he won't be argumentative for no reason; he'll listen to any orders that engie or solly put down, but not without giving his input, asked for or not!

part of being a good scrapper is knowing when to fight and when to take a walk. when scout's truly mad, he prefers being alone, drawing or going on a run to get his thoughts clear. not afraid to ask for help and is always ready to "repay" friends for their kindnesses towards him.

growing up, he never wanted to trouble his mom with anything. scout was always the reliable one (although a complete hellion), often putting his own priorities to the side for his mom. places a lot of weight on his own shoulders to be good, or better, for her, and to be a son she can be proud of!

cannot drive. engineer has tried to teach him, sniper has tried, spy has tried, heavy has tried... but he just can't do it LOL. crashes into something every time and is always like CRAP!! SORRYSORRYSORRYSORRYSORRY!! it's not a big deal, though. plenty of the mercs enjoy driving after all!

he was always taught to share, even though he kind of hates it! always hated being forced to share with his brothers as a kid. in his adult life, he doesn't Mind, but he prefers being able to choose when he does share. if he's splitting something with you, its a BIG deal!!

easily hands out apologies and doesn't like long-standing conflict. "lets just hash this crap out and move on already!" good at putting you on ice, but only if he needs time to think or gather his thoughts. the longest grudge he'd ever held was against his Absent Father...... spy! but their relationship begins to get better after the events of the comics. i could sincerely write a whole thread on Just their dynamics together!

ultimately i think scout hated His Absent Father for so long because it was just "Easier" to. but now that spy is There and Trying, well, scout can't really Hate Him. theres still a lot of "repairing" to do, and they aren't the Perfect Father And Son, but scout appreciates spy's effort and the sincerity of his explanation (once he hears it from spy and not tom jones)!

will always value the truth over lies. he'd rather you tell him something Horrible if it was the truth than sugarcoat it with a lie. i think spy wanted to give scout what he wanted when he was dying (being comforted by his "dad"), but in retrospect when scout learns the truth, he wished spy would have just been honest with him, even if it did suck to know that his dad was someone like spy and not actually tom jones. regardless, he understood that spy just wanted to give scout what he thought scout wanted, but understands/respects scout's wishes going forward and promises to be a little more honest :) this is when they can really start repairing and Building on their relationship as father and son, in the ways that work for both spy and scout!

i don't think Dad Issues is the only facet of scout's personality nor do i think it even Dominates a lot of his thoughts BUT i just happen to have a lot of thoughts on it lmao

i don't think any of the other mercs Baby him (he's literally a Grown Man and imo being babied would piss him off), and i don't think any of them think he is "inferior" or "childish". i think all of the mercs are at least a little immature!

However i will say that i think a very interesting dynamic between scout and sniper is their views on their fathers and how it shaped them as people. while "jealousy" sounds a bit dramatic, i think they Lightly Envy one another; wouldn't ever take it out on each other but if they think about it for too long they kind of get Bummed Out. scout loves his family but sometimes wishes he'd been an only child with a Mom and a Dad that were around all the time. he doesnt know the Extent of snipers Complicated Feelings about his own family!

sniper loves his family too but sometimes thinks about how even though his own father was Present in his life, he'd been Very Hard on him and Basically rejected him. sniper was present while spy was comforting Dying Scout and took notice of how spy treated scout the way that he thought scout would want, disregarding his own feelings. sniper's dad, on the other hand, only told him he was proud of him after he'd technically died... ouch!

and No i Don't Think sniper wants spy to be his dad nor does he see/want to see spy as a/his own father figure in any capacity lol. i think this is just something that crosses both sniper and scout's minds every now and then and they're like "Huh. Wish I Had What He'd Had!"

i don't see scout struggling with internalized homphobia or anything like that, either. i think his mom, like scout (and spy!), says what they mean and mean what they say and when scout's mom says "i love you no matter what", she means it! scout never gives that kind of stuff a second thought; if he brings a Fella home for the holidays, it doesn't matter! scout's mom is still going to show his Date Of Choice all of the most embarrassing photos of scout she can find! x)

holds his liquor well; he came from a big cathoIic family after all! x) gets a little more Snarky and a little more Hostile if he gets Truly Drunk, but doesn't like to make himself go that far Often. he can always brawl with the mercs when he's sober! prefers to have some beers with demo, engie and sniper and play darts or billiards with them. doesn't like mixed drinks. freakin gross!

will break your balls over anything and everything (like spy and scout's mom!). you tripped on the field? hell tease you for a week! nothing ever mean-spirited and not about anything that he thinks would Upset you! if you ask him to stop, he will, and he'll apologize and mean it!

[thegeminisage]

TNG UPDATE TIME. it's been ages. monday we did "a matter of time" (boo) and wednesday we did "new ground" (holy shit).

a matter of time: did you guys know the little guy here played pestilence on spn? his vibes were horrific. he was awful. i don't say that about the actor himself, who was obviously very good if he could get us to lean back from our screens like that, but i did NOT like that. not one bit. now every time i see him in spn gifs i get scared

anyway it's been awhile since we had such a huge dud and i did not miss it. everybody was extra stupid this episode to make the bad guy seem smart, My Least Favorite. he was also there ALL THE TIME instead of giving us a break from him which was also super awful

also he tried to kidnap data, though i love that he failed hilariously and also they made a new jersey joke

i predicted the twist of this episode - that he was from the past, not the future - about halfway through. so at least i get to feel accomplished about something.

i do like that deanna told him to fuck off. she's never mean to anybody but he REALLY deserved it

new ground: I LOVE WORF................

i'm soooo mad at people in the star trek calling worf a deadbeat dad. idk if he does something shitty later but i totally understood the ethical dilemma in this ep maybe even perhaps better than the writers wanted me to bc the thing is like. sorry

CHILDREN

SHOULD

NOT

BE

ON

STARSHIPS

sorry to families with children. sorry to single mothers and actually to women everywhere. sorry even to wesley crusher, my perfect precious baby boy, who i will defend with my life. they SHOULD NOT BE ON STARSHIPS.

like, ok. let's get into it. i did think it was wack that worf initially sent alexander to his human parents...but that's because he wanted his son to have access to klingon society, which was something he himself DID NOT HAVE and COULD NOT GIVE ALEXANDER had anyone known alexander was worf's son. it was TOTALLY REASONABLE for worf to be thrown headfirst into parenthood and be smart enough to say, not only am i incapable of raising a child at this juncture in my life, i am incapable of connecting him to his culture, WHICH

WAS ALSO DENIED TO HIM. BY HIS MOTHER!!! LET'S NOT FORGET HIS MOM HATED KLINGONS like ik the writers forgot but EYE DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!

alexander's mother was a half-klingon woman who HATED KLINGONS. she at MULTIPLE POINTS made racist remarks about them and self-disparaging remarks about her own klingon heritage. she even gave alexander, despite being "more" klingon than human dna-wise, a HUMAN NAME. obviously the tng writing room wasnt going yeah ofc worf wants him to have access to klingon culture after all that but OFC HE DOES

which makes it wack to me that he sent alexander off to live with his parents and not his brother. NO ONE KNOWS kurn is worf's brother. he could have raised alexander on the klingon homeworld as his own, or even as his nephew, and no one would ever have known he was connected to worf. whereas sending alexander to live with the humans who raised worf is a huge indicator that he is worf's child

one might say, well he thinks klingon schools would be too harsh for this kid who was essentially raised as a human. this is a legitimate and valid concern he has in the episode as well. worf would not be as harsh as the klingon schools but he WOULD give alexander access to his klingon heritage. so that's the happy medium! as a side bonus we also don't give alexander EVEN MORE abandonment issues. the problem is,

CHILDREN SHOULDN'T BE ON A STARSHIP. we see in this very episode why they shouldn't be on a starship. "oh the saucer can separate whenever to protect the kiddos" SPACE IS DANGEROUS. they never have the budget or the time to separate the saucer. they just take all those little guys into horrible experiments whenever. i could almost understand if it was like, a spaceship that just delivered freight or something but it's an EXPLORATORY SHIP its SOLE PURPOSE is to head into unknown dangers. DON'T TAKE CHILDREN.

meanwhile worf is late to work meetings and gets commed twice about his kid while he's trying to explain himself to picard like...now you've got to consider the fact that people on the enterprise live at their workplace. they are basically on call 24/7. like if a space disaster strikes it is not gonna wait until you are through with your weekend relaxation or are finished putting your kid to bed. you CAN'T be on a starship and raise your child at the same time because as a parent you have to put your child first always and as a starship officer where EVERYONE COULD DIE AT ANY TIME you have to put the ship first always and TWO THINGS can't BOTH be first priority

like, worf is literally doing the best he can. maybe he should have sent alexander to live with his brother when he was still a little squirt but it may be too late for that now. there are quite literally no good options here to this moral dilemma of "where does my baby belong" which is actually so good because worf ALSO doesn't have a place he totally belongs. they both have a foot in each world. i bet it would be really good if it wasn't on tng

ANYWAY. sorry. there's a post in the george kirk tag about star trek fathers that disses worf and it makes me see red every time. wow! TONIGHT: "hero worship" (forboding title i hate tng episodes with kids) and "violations" (equally forboding title but here's hoping it just means we'll be playing riker roulette).

This Top Gun: Maverick NFL player AU is for @anniesocsandgeneralstore! Thank you for letting me play in your sandbox with your OC! 🥰 I can't wait to read the other TGM NFL player AU you're working on! 💙 And if you haven't read any of Annie's absolutely amazing AUs yet, you need to go do that right now! (also, this was supposed to just be a short & quick summary of my ideas for this au, like three paragraphs tops. it ended up being a five page google doc. whoops. 😆)

================================================ Pairing: Jake Seresin x female Bradshaw OC Tags: This is just pure self-indulgent fluff with just the teeny, tiniest bit of angst Word count: 2,913 ================================================ Ronnie grew up the daughter of an NFL player and she saw firsthand the stress that being the wife of a professional athlete put on her mom and the stress it put on her parents’ relationship as a whole. Plus Ronnie had hated how they had to move every time her dad started playing with a new team. So she swears she’ll never date a professional athlete. 

Her brother, though, follows in their dad’s footsteps and ends up an NFL player himself. He’s recently been traded to the Indianapolis Colts and suggests that Ronnie come live with him for a bit while she’s getting back on her feet after a bad breakup. Ronnie, wanting to get away from everything that reminds her of her horrible ex, agrees. 

While Bradley usually introduces Ronnie to his teammates, he’d been too busy to do so yet and Ronnie had stopped keeping up with the going on's of whatever team Bradley was currently playing for because of her insecure ex (he was totally jealous of her knowing and hanging out with NFL players). So when she decides to go check out the nightlife scene in Broad Ripple and starts flirting with a cute guy (Jake), she has no idea he is a professional athlete, let alone one of her brother’s teammates.

Not only does Jake think Ronnie is cute, he finds it totally refreshing that she has no idea who he is. He’d been getting tired of all the local girls throwing themselves at him just so they can say they’ve been with an NFL player. The two of them hit it off and Jake starts thinking about asking her out on a date. But then during their conversation something something Ronnie tells him how she never wants to be with a professional athlete so something something Jake decides not to tell her he’s an NFL player.

They do end up going out on a date and it goes well enough that they go on several more. Ronnie is starting to think she could see them becoming a thing so when Jake asks her to be his plus one to a work event (and no, he didn’t even stop to think that her going to that work event would out him as an NFL player because his brain kinda stops working when he’s around her), she’s a bit bummed she has to say no because she’s already going to something with her brother that same night. 

Cue Ronnie & Bradley at some kind of Colts charity dinner and Bradley is introducing her to everyone. They walk up to a small group of people and when the guy in front of them turns around, Ronnie almost drops her drink because it’s Jake. And Bradley is introducing Jake to her as one of his teammates. Jake is also shocked to see Ronnie next to Bradley and is even more shocked to have Bradley introduce her as his younger sister. 

Later when Bradley walks off for some reason, Ronnie pulls Jake over into a dark corner. “This is your work event???” “This is the thing with your brother???” they hiss at each other. Jake tries to explain why he didn’t tell Ronnie he was not only an NFL player, but also her brother’s teammate, but Ronnie is so angry at him that she cuts him off. “I told you the night we met that I didn’t want to be with a professional athlete! Was this just some twisted game to you? ‘Oh! Let’s just see how long I can string her along before she realizes I’m an NFL player. Ha Ha, what a laugh!’ Ugh, I hate you!” she hisses at Jake before turning away from him and walking back over to the table she and Bradley are sitting at. Jake tries to get her to talk to him for the rest of the night, but Ronnie steadfastly ignores him. During the drive back home after the dinner, Ronnie tells Bradley about her and Jake. At first Bradley thinks it’s kind of funny that she’d been seeing one of his teammates and didn't know it. But then when he sees the look on her face and hears the crack in her voice he stops teasing her and lets her vent. Ronnie doesn’t talk to Jake for over a week, ignoring all of his texts and calls (the charity dinner was on a Friday night so she ignores Jake for that entire weekend and then all the way to the following weekend).

She’s torn because she really does like Jake (and thinks she might even be starting to love him despite only knowing him for just over a month) but she just can’t seem to get over her aversion to the life of a professional athlete. Not only does she remember the stress it put on her mom and her parents’ relationship in general, but there’s also the fact that her “Uncle” Mav (who was her dad’s good friend/college teammate and they also played on the same NFL team a few times) had his own relationship problems because he was also a professional athlete.

His girlfriend at the time, Penny, hated the constant moving every few years and when she ended up pregnant with their daughter, Amelia, Penny told Mav she was done following him around. She wanted their daughter to have a stable life, didn’t want her to have to be the new kid at school every few years. So she ended up moving back home to California, to raise Amelia close to her family, while Mav decided he still wanted to keep playing and stayed in St. Louis where he was playing for the Rams. 

This started an on again - off again period for Mav & Penny as Mav ended up playing for another 10yrs. Between the time Amelia was born and Mav retiring he had ended up playing for a total of four different teams. Ronnie knows Mav did his best to be there for Amelia and help Penny co-parent, but he still ended up missing a lot and while Mav & Penny are married now (which Penny wouldn’t agree to unless Mav went to couples therapy with her), he’s also admitted a few times to Ronnie that his relationship with his now 14yr old daughter is a bit strained sometimes. 

And Ronnie just doesn’t want something like that for herself or her future children. But again, she can’t deny to herself that she’s starting to have some strong feelings about Jake and she’s just so confused. So after talking to her best friend, Natasha, and Mav & Penny, her parents (they’re both still alive because I say so!), and even her brother, Ronnie decides to give this thing with Jake a chance despite her reservations. 

During that same time period, Jake is convinced he’s lost all chances with Ronnie. Especially after talking with Bradley (who was surprisingly not that upset that Jake had been going out with his sister) and learning exactly why Ronnie said she’d never want to end up with a professional athlete. 

Because he gets it. He’s seen teammates struggle with balancing their career and their personal life. He’s seen teammates miss the birth of their kids because their wife went into surprise labor during an away game, miss kids school plays and dance recitals. He’s seen teammates' relationships/marriages fall apart because of the stress/pressure of being an NFL player’s girlfriend/wife. So he completely understands why Ronnie doesn’t want that life for herself.

And while the Colts don’t lose that weekend, Jake definitely knows he didn’t play his best because he was distracted. For the rest of the week, Jake seriously contemplates the idea of retiring decades earlier than he’d originally planned just because of Ronnie. Because even though they’ve only known each other for just over a month, Jake is pretty sure she’s it for him. He tries imagining his life without Ronnie in it and he does not like that idea at all. 

So he decides that after that Sunday’s game, he’ll find some way to get Ronnie to talk to him, so he can tell her that he’s willing to stop playing if she’s willing to give them a chance. Meanwhile, Ronnie decides that she needs to tell Jake about her decision in person. 

That Sunday's game is a home game and since moving in with her brother, Ronnie’s been dropping him off at the stadium for home games. Bradley, wanting to see his sister happy, helpfully informs her that Jake usually arrives at the stadium about 15-20 mins after him. After dropping her brother off at the team entrance with her customary good luck hug, she parks her car and gets out, leaning against the car and waiting for Jake to arrive. True to what Bradley told her, she sees Jake’s truck pull into the team parking lot 15 mins later. Despite being confident in her decision, she’s still nervous seeing Jake for the first time in over a week, nervous that he’ll have taken her silence to mean she’s not interested and that he wants nothing to do with her.

Jake is checking something on his phone as he starts walking in, backpack slung over one shoulder, so he doesn’t notice Ronnie right away. But as he’s putting his phone back in his pocket he catches sight of her leaning against the hood of her car, arms & legs crossed, a pair of sunglasses on her face. He stops for just a moment before slowly walking up to her & stopping just in front of her. Ronnie pushes the sunglasses up into her hair and gives him a small smile.

Jake drops his backpack at his feet and reaches for her hands. Something something Hallmark movie-esq dialogue happens as they both tell each other their personal revelations. While Jake was 100% ready and willing to walk away from the game that he loves in order to have a life with Ronnie, there is a part of him that is happy that she’s willing to give them a chance while he plays. But he makes sure to tell her that if it all becomes too much for her at any point, he’ll retire, because in the end, she means more to him than football. A soft and sweet kiss happens at some point during all of this and something settles in Ronnie that confirms for her that she’s making the right choice.

With the status of their relationship now settled, Ronnie gives Jake one more kiss for good luck before sending him on his way to get ready for the game and then she heads off to the airport to pick up Natasha who had decided to visit Ronnie for the following week (“you’re my bff, we haven’t seen each other in almost three months and I know you’re gonna need some girl time no matter how Jake reacts to your decision”). After a quick stop at Bradley’s place so Natasha can drop off her bags & change for the game, the two of them head back to the stadium.

Bradley had managed to hook them up with really nice seats for the game so they were sitting in the front row that was right behind the Colt’s team bench (Ronnie never liked being in the family suite anyways, she preferred to be down in the stadium with the rest of the fans). It just so happenes that it’s the offensive players' turn to be announced from the tunnel at this game and Ronnie can’t help the giant grin that blooms on her face as she watches Jake run on to the field after his name is announced, cheering along with the rest of the home crowd. It also brings a smile to her face to hear the crowd cheer just as loudly for her brother when he runs out.

Right before the national anthem, Bradley spots her and waves at her & Natasha before getting Jake’s attention and pointing her out to him. Jake had assumed Ronnie would be sitting up in the family suite so his face lights up with the biggest smile when he sees her sitting next to the field. He winkes at her and Ronnie can feel herself blushing as Natasha laughes at her. 

It’s almost half-time with the Colts down by three and as time expires on the second quarter, Jake scores a touchdown. As the stadium erupts with cheers, Ronnie sees Jake running her way. Without really thinking about what she's doing she leans over the railing as Jake yanks his helmet off and hops up on the bottom rung of the railing that separates the two of them. Ronnie grabs his face with both hands and gives him a quick kiss before he hands her the ball and runs back over to the rest of the team with a giant grin on his face (unbeknownst to her, Natasha managed to get video of the entire thing). Ronnie watches as her brother playfully smacks Jake on the back of the head.

A highlight reel of the first half of the game plays right before the start of the second half and at the end of it, playing out on the two giant screens inside Lucas Oil Stadium, is the clip of Jake leaping up to Ronnie and the two of them kissing. Ronnie feels herself blushing again as the crowd starts cheering as the video ends and the second half begins. She hadn’t wanted to go public with their relationship so quickly, but she had been caught up in the moment and hadn’t been thinking. Ronnie realizes that’s a conversation she & Jake will need to have as soon as possible. 

The Colts end up winning with Bradley scoring the game winning touchdown. He’s smart enough not to run over to his sister but he does do the little sign he came up with for her when he started playing in high school. Not wanting to draw anymore attention to herself, Ronnie decides to meet Jake & Bradley at the players entrance instead of going down to the field. After sending Jake & her brother a quick text telling them where to meet her, she uses her family member pass to get her & Natasha past security so they can use a shortcut through the stadium and get to the players entrance without having to fight their way through the exiting crowd.

It’s a good 30mins before Jake & Bradley are finally able to leave the locker room and meet up with Ronnie & Natasha outside the players entrance. Ronnie, talking with Natasha, has her back to the entrance when she suddenly finds herself lifted off her feet by a pair of strong arms and spun around in a circle while she feels a kiss being dropped on the back of her neck.She laughs as she’s dropped back down and then spun around again to face Jake who grins down at her before leaning his forehead against hers and whispering “there’s my good luck charm” before Ronnie goes up on her tiptoes to give him a kiss. Jake captures her face in both his hands when she tries to step back and he pulls her in for a deeper kiss. 

The two of them are interrupted after a moment by a pointed cough from Natasha and Bradley saying “Just because I’m fine with you dating my sister, Seresin, doesn’t mean I want to watch the two of you make out.” Ronnie & Jake break apart with a laugh and Jake kisses her forehead real quick before letting go of her face and tucking Ronnie into his side as she wraps her arms around his waist. 

Bradley is grinning at them both as he motions Ronnie to hand over her keys. “Seresin, you’re coming over for dinner so I can at least pretend to give you the shovel talk,” he then turns to Ronnie “Natasha and I’ll drive your car back to my place so you & Jake can drive over together. Dinner’ll be ready in an hour,” he says with a wink before turning and putting his stuff in the trunk of Ronnie’s car. Natasha gives the two of them her own wink before climbing into the passenger seat next to Bradley and then the two of them wave as they drive off.

Jake picks up his backpack from the ground where he’d dropped a few minutes ago and walks Ronnie over to his trunk. Not wanting to let go of Ronnie just yet, he manages to stick his bag in the back seat one handed before walking Ronnie over to the passenger side of his truck. He opens the door for her and helps her inside before kissing the back of her hand and finally letting go so he can shut the door. He rushes over to the driver side, hops in and buckles in a rush, barely remembering to put in the key and turn the truck on before he grabs Ronnie’s hand again, giving it another kiss. 

Ronnie laughs at him as he pulls out of the stadium parking lot. “I don’t know how you’re going to be able to practice or play if you can’t seem to let go of my hand.” “I told you before the game, I’m not letting you go anytime soon. You’re stuck with me now, sweetheart. I’ll figure something out,” Jake says with a grin as he drives them over to Bradley’s for dinner.

[not-my-final-account]

I have a brother and he screams when I sing, for the record I don’t sing any louder than I talk and I take leasons so I’m not that bad of a singer, also he’s only two years younger than me and has no disorders which would mean he can’t deal with noise or me singing. So I’m not aloud to sing in the living room (which everyone in the family agrees is a space for everyone) because my mom can’t deal with his screaming when I start singing.

He gets away with everything because he screams and throws temper tantrums when ever something doesn’t go his way, even if it is something not that difficult and perfectly reasonable like asking him to move over because he’s taking up all of them couch. The family now always gets into arguments because he is hellbent on making my life horrible and he gets his way because mum can’t deal with him screaming and never punishes him beyond a glare and a ‘don’t do that again’

I’m not going to be able to move out for a while and we’ve even stopping having dinners together because they always ended in screaming. However, when ever something goes wrong for me, I just take it or maybe ask mum if there’s anything she can do, I never say anything because I know she has enough on her plate already but my brother never thinks of that, and she is afraid to yell or punish him because our Dad Vader recently died and she thinks he is in a fragile enough mental state that it would affect him, yeah, maybe it would, but whatever it would do to him would be nothing compared to what he puts me through.

It’s not just singing either, he calls me sexual things even though I tell him to stop, he does things just to annoy me even if the inconvenience him, and he throws things (sticks or whatever’s lying around) at me when ever I even retort back at him. I’m sick and tired of it but there isn’t anything I can do, I’ve told mum about this but she never does anything more than say she is going to have a talk with him which I’m still not convinced she even does, I could perhaps report him to the police for being sexual but it’s nothing that serious and also would just end up being mums problem.

Everyone thinks that he’s an angel.

He also hogs all the attention, for a while I was in a really dark patch and I even considered k!lling myself and mum didn’t even notice, I mean sure, I’ve never been a ‘showy feely’ kid and I hide a lot of my true thoughts but it gets to the point where my own mother should realise I’m not okay, but she never did. I had to deal with that myself, I had to pull myself through a lot of things which looking back were so much worse than I thought, and she didn’t even realise because while I never showed too much emotion (especially after Dad died) my brother’s always put his heart and soul into every small thing he does and she thought it would affect him more than it would affect me, I know it hurt him but no one even bother to push a little further when they asked me if I was okay.

And there is nothing I can do about it either. I could start acting like him, which might teach him a lesson and make mum listen to me, but he would only get worse and mum would only have more to deal with so I don’t.

I used to have this tree house in this park, whenever I got mad I’d jump out my window and run to it so I could sit in nature closer to the sky and calm down. I’m pretty sure only homeless people live in it now but I miss having somewhere I could tun when I was mad to cool down.

So, in the spirt of all those youtube videos, am I the asshole for deciding I’m going to make his life hell behind the scenes? Because I used to love him, I used to care no matter what, but he pushed it too far. He could fall off a cliff and the only tears I would be shedding at his funeral would be ones of boredom.

[radical-doppio]

🔫 tell us about your oc please!!! (Luna- or others if u have any!)

OHHH i am being held gunpoint to reveal information,,, and reveal information i will do,,, but first i need to explain one thing which is that there is a Fic Series i have been Writing The Past 2 Years (although i haven't touched it for like Over Half A Year because my education has been edu-slaughtering me despite the fact i've reached the half-way point now which is funny to think about) and i think i would feel like an embarrassed teenager if i actually shared any links to it because i think it had a Very Rough Start looking back and bc of that there's a lot of choices that can look Weird and feel Rushed and i am far too Harsh On Myself even though i also boast a lot about it to my Buddies (they can attest to that i went on a symbolism ramble earlier) BUT i can explain Luna and the others!!!! aka the ones i frequently tag posts with so i will of course start with the protagonist

Eren (not aot (i should probably start saying ETW Eren instead) is actually Eren (from aot) but you've seen those posts that are like "i took this guy from this literature and started writing him and a lot happened and now there are only faint traces of the original stitched within this man that shares the same name" yeah it's that kind of situation!!!! while he still has 1. a strong desire for freedom 2. a very flat butt 3. a ripped body (in more ways than one depending on the scene) 4. horrible decision making then what makes him very different is that 1. he is everyone's winning son and that means the world! he also has some identity issues here and there and occasionally gets into illegal activities because he is a little too naive for his own good despite looking a bit like a biker-pirate-werewolf (affectionate)

but he is otherwise a Loving Fellow that cares deeply for everyone (Luna gave him a Hatsune Miku eyepatch as a late birthday present after they became friends and despite his initial repulsion he wears it like a mark of pride (he hurt his eye once nothing too important)) but he's just a little misguided and does very dumb things because he's very conflicted inside! but otherwise he's just very curious about the things he'd never get to do if he was still living in his hometown due to the overbearing weight of expectations and burdens from the greatness of his family (dad's side is a family of doctors as is consistent with aot canon but his grandparents from his mom's side were a scholar and the other a rockstar)

Now Luna is like if a raccoon worked in the corner store you go to in the middle of the night to find a bottle of water after waking up someplace you don't know with a really dry mouth and a mysteriously broken wrist. very annoying. very attached. very loving too. for some reason very athletic despite being lazy and knows things that aren't important at all but will fill the hole in your head now. now they did not actually choose their name but while he and Eren were on the beach together reminiscing over hellish moments of their lives and Luna was having a "how can i leave the person i used to be in the dust when i can't even choose a name for myself" then Eren, ever-so-bright, remembered that time his big brother Zeke taught him about these really cool moths that were the same colour as Luna's eyes and went "have you heard about these moths they're really cool" and Luna, as lovestruck as a fucking idiot can be, went "Luna rolls off the tongue nicely :)" while eating a mcflurry eren bought for him so surprisingly their name is not Luna bc of the moon but bc of the cool moth that is really pretty and can't be detected by bats meaning moon symbolism does not rock with them lolika if you're reading this i'm still gonna gut you for that but there is a Bitch

that gorgeous Bitch is Naoya and he's like Eren in that he's not an OC but i hijacked him from a piece of media and frankenstein'd him into something else (this time persona 1 he's the protagonist) but Naoya is that guy you see everywhere that has something profoundly wrong with him yet you still kinda wanna Be With Him because his vibes are Delicious and Eren recognized that after they were fishing together once and that led to them "adopting" Denji (from chainsawnman he's also involved in illegal activities with very creepy guardians aka makima and he's a few years younger than the both of them and eren has a milf instinct to keep people younger than him Safe) but also Naoya says really concerning things sometimes but Eren is too busy going "boy,, pretty,, lipstick,,, earring,,," to overhear "tbh i think a lot of the world's problems could be solved if killing was legal anyway eren my Comrade (flirting) do you wanna watch my play" i don't know why i chose to make him in charge of a theater ensemble but he also had like 309298509 jobs before shooting up in stardom after making 1 banger that denji slept through but lunaoya only met once off-screen i think and luna is Very wary of him because there is something Deeply Fucking Wrong With That Guy but Eren's very "he gave me his earring before he left for the US..." like the freakish little lover that he is and i imagine naoya's feelings on luna are very "(green goblin voice) you and i can smoke the fattest blunt together spider-man"

speaking of the green goblin there is also Coral who is Luna's childhood bestie and she is not green in real life but she is a vtuber with a crocodile princess thing called croc cordia and that crocodile is very green (there are no drawings of any of the cast because i can't draw) although she herself is the only american in the cast which is not important at all but is really funny. she isn't my oc by the way she's my good buddy's @lolika-0777 creature that i saw one holy night and then we had a brainblast of "do you think she'd hold hands with luna" and they went "oguhgohgsoghugsguughGOGYGOh" as i performed a CIA move on them to make them agree and then we had a strong moment of camaraderie as we decided coraluna are so in love but coral and eren are like siblings in that they see each other and either have a short and sweet moment together or they traumatize each other for three minutes and never speak of it again but one thing is for sure and that is that luna has 2 hands for both of them and hey why is one hand sliding away luna no the economy oh god

i also have an oc unrelated to all of that fic stuff named lucy that's my good buddy @swordlover87's oc erin's wife they got married in some roleplay because erin was in awe of lucy's 8ball swagger and lucy was in awe of erin's naive swagger i think it was a high school rp with superpowers lots of stuff happened i was there for like 4 minutes total to have them flirt and kiss and then i occasionally saw some crazy things went "woah" and then read beastars over a few days and then i watched i think it was the monster anime (i did that over 2 days) and then black sails (that was like a week) and then when i came back things were Over and i nodded and said "erilucy is real" and then me and swords held each other tenderly every night after knowing our (platonic) love is true and just even in the eyes of god but alas our tale is one cursed with tragedy and by the end he will have to slay me as i have slain what love we had for greater ambition that was as corrupt as the blood of god himself

the mayor's son has apparently been out of school since the grunch attack. He has a dream about Stanley and Missy his best friend and girlfriend leaving him behind while he's being attacked by monsters the mayor takes the opportunity to try and drive a wedge between his son and Stanley and Missy

the mayor's son tries to have a private talk about what the fuck happened and why Missy and Stanley are hanging out with nerds Missy and Stanley try to warn the dude that his dad is shit and working with a demon which starts a fight the mayor's son decides he cant trust them b/c he doesnt believe that his dad is up to some bullshit Stanley gets a surprise reminder that yeah his mom works for the mayor who's trying to kill him and his friends when he runs into the mayor in his house who helpfully and threateningly reminds him that he knows where all of his friends live

Soliei's interracial queer moms Stanley is understandably worried about the mayor's threats and the safety of his family and his friends the kids decide to break into and investigate the mayor's home

The mayor invited the rougarou and the vampires to his house to show them the last memories, that he altered framing the vampires for the murder, of the old pack leader to find out how he died. Understandably starting a fight between the two groups. The old pack leader's ghost is there but only Maybe can hear him when the dead rougarou names the mayor as his murderer

the kids find the musical instrument the mayor stole from the vamps that can summon grunches in the hidden bedroom where the mayor had been sheltering the demon and the mayor's son runs into them, armed with a bat demanding info

Soliei runs into the demon and tries to burn it. Which doesnt work The rougarou and vamps start fighting. the dead pack leader helps get Maybe to safety b4 telling him what happened yeah the demon was like: I'm from Hell why did you think fire would work?

the rest of the team still trying to talk sense into the mayor's son Maybe calls his brother who works for the vampires to ask him to tell the vampires that they were framed by the mayor and gets caught by the mayor who again they know is down with murdering kids Soliei doesn't fare well against the demon who feeds off her multiple times and then does something to her apparently, due to her ancestry, she's an important part of his plans the demon gives her nightmare visions of her and her friends dying horribly if they keep interfering damn. the mayor's son, supposedly friends with Stanley since kindergarten: Voodoo superpowers? I guess that makes more sense than Stan suddenly getting smart Stanley: Wow that's kinda hurtful but I'm gonna focus on the part where you believe us

the mayor's son still doesnt believes that his dad's evil until the mayor chucks Maybe into his friends and the demon shows up with a spiritually defeated Soliei the mayor admits to trying to kill the vampires and rougarou but says he has good reasons and he didnt know that his son was at the club when he sent grunches to attack it, b/c that makes endangering people while trying to explicitly murder other people ok

so the mayor's wife died because he ran a red light and since the rougarou and vampires wouldn't come forward and change her to save her life b/c they were in public and didnt want to be exposed. And that's why the mayor wants to murder all the rougarou and vampires in town b/c they didn't want to risk the humans finding out about them and killing them all

the mayor: their selfishness is why my wife died Pat aint buying that fucking sob story b/c the mayor had his father murdered for being a witness. Murdered and then enslaved after death

the mayor's son apparently sides with his dad who charges him with keeping the rest of the kids there and out of his hair

Maybe's brother asks to be turned to help fight and keep his brother safe the rougarou get riled up by Lou's speech and transform and then realize that they gotta drive to get to the fight location and have to turn back Maybe's brother turns into a vamp the demon has the mayor summon another demon and the mayor betrays the demon and puts it in the circle because the spell would allow the mayor to have perfect control over the demon he then sets a magic trap

[beyourownanchor6]

I think they were good out of context, as standalone. But some things never made sense. Like after the first one where Supergirl joins, it's like. She found out there's a whole universe where there's no superman or supergirl, no clark kent or kara danvers, which potentially could mean krypton never exploded, and she can get to that universe with the help of her friend barry's friend cisco, and she does... absolutely nothing with that information. No desire to visit au!krypton. No desire to see her parents again. No desire to take Clark, who has no ties to his own culture because he lost it as a baby, to go see krypton. Nothing. And like she knows there is life on other planets and it matches the life in other planets on her universe because of the dominators, the alien main villains of that crossover who also exist in her universe. It drove me crazy.

Yeah i definitely went through it. But it made me stronger in the end. Yeah i loved/hated 13 reasons why. It was definitely wild. And thank you so much! One of my best friends says i should write an auto biography, but i can't imagine anyone being interested in reading about my messed up teen years. Like "ooh i was an alcoholic in high school" big deal, like, doesn't make me special. And yeees. My mom is my best friend (not in a norman bates kinda way), we're very close. Recently she's been hinting that it might be better for me to move out because i need to work on independence, and i meed to be free to fornicate at home. I'm unsure if i want that, because i love living with her.

Lol oh i'm like that with scooby doo.

Yeah, i love foggy too. No spoilers (unless you want them) but yeah, very limited foggy. Rumor has it it's basically a cameo. And yees punisher is coming back. I never got into him but he is nice to look at. Especially his nose (i have a thing for noses, i'm weird).

Thank you! I subscribed to you :D

Thank you! I'll try beans with my mom, maybe she'll get that.

Yeah indeed, second opinions are important. And it was definitely helpful! Now I can plan accordingly. And that sounds like a great weekend! I hope you have a great week!

gonna respond under the cut 😎

i think supergirl definitely ruined a lot of the series/crossovers bc they never really tied it together with everything like you said? seemed like a lot of wasted opportunities. i tried to watch supergirl a couple times but quit both times lol. it definitely had a lot of plot holes from what i remember, which honestly isn’t much lol. idk why but dc shows/movies just always seem to fall short compared to marvel stuff, imo. it��s like they just don’t know what they’re doing half the time and just go with whatever

sometimes we have to go through some shit to make us stronger in the end. the show definitely got very dramatic but i loved it anyway and was invested lol, but i can see not wanting to engage with that after all you went through. hey ya never know! your story could be just the thing to help someone out who’s maybe going/gone through something similar. LOL, i do love me some psycho. did you ever watch the show bates motel? living alone (or at least without your parents) is definitely nice! i live with my brother but he’s much more easygoing then my dad so it works. it’s like having a roommate but we get along haha. it’s a big step though so i think it’s ok to take your time and make sure you’re ready!

dang, that makes me sad. kinda weird to do daredevil without him i’d think. that shall be interesting. the punisher was one of my favorites. i really wanted more seasons of that, but i kinda felt that way about all the marvel netflix show lol

oww thanks! hope you enjoy 🥰

beans are a fun way to describe it for me. or it makes me feel less blahh about it lol

that’s always a helpful thing! thanks, i am on a trip with my bff this week but i got horribly sunburned and dont feel like doing anything now lol. hope you’re weeks been good!
