Lazy short story I wrote in an hour about Mason reluctantly taking Cillians three siblings to the lake! It's not very high quality, but it's all I really need since it'll be made into a comic... sorry for the shitty formatting

"Mister O'Connor?" Elizabeth chimed, poking the man's back as he lay on the lounge. He groaned, rolling over and staring at the young girl, almost looking confused as to why on earth she would be bothering him. Her brothers were behind her, quickly slinking away when his eyes met theirs.

"Yes, Elizabeth?" He mumbled, not bothering to sit up.

"Well, Cillian with da and mam is busy and we really want to go to the lake."

He grunted, pinching the bridge of his nose and sitting up, recoiling as his feet touched the cold tiles.

"So what do you want from me?"

Elizabeth stared at him, an exaggerated frown appearing on her face as she dramatically crossed her arms.

"You know what I want!"

Mason yawned, blinking slowly, one eye at a time.

"I'm not taking you to the lake." He stated, laying back down and facing his back to her, shutting his eyes and trying to fall back asleep.

Soon he felt three sets of hands tugging on his shirt, he whined.

"Please, Mister O'Connor, we'll never ask for anything ever again!" He heard Peter exclaim.

"Come on sir!" Edward pleaded, it was presumably his claws which were digging into Mason's shoulders.

"Please" Elizabeth begged, reaching over him to grab his hand, trying to drag him off the lounge. The children eventually managed to pull him to the ground, giggling as they got on either side of him and pulled him up to a sitting position. He sighed, relenting and standing up.

"Go to your rooms, get yourselves ready quickly while I gather the towels." He smiled, "You're lucky we don't have to go far"

The three children cheered loudly, Mason recoiled and covered his ears, grimacing as the children celebrated. It'd be an exhausting afternoon.

Edward as usual immediately began playing rough, nipping at Peters tail as he galloped into the water, narrowly avoiding being bitten. Elizabeth stayed by Masons side for a moment, looking up at him with her big brown eyes. The face she made was almost like a smile, it was at least the closest she could get while not in a human body.

"Go on, I'll wait here"

"Aren't you coming in? Cillian always comes in!" She chirped, tilting her head to the side like a dog.

"Ah, I'd rather not, dear." He sighed as he laid out the picnic blanket he'd brought along with him, setting out the childrens towels for when they were finished. They wouldn't be transforming back until they were home, but their hair would still need to be dried off. Áine hated when the children returned drenched, trailing water all through the house and into their rooms. Elizabeth especially, Cillian often joked that she was a sponge cleverly disguised as an otter, her thick and curly hair always seeming to soak up an absurd amount of water.

"Please, you never play with us!"

"I'm too old to play"

"Cillian is older than you and he still plays water tag with us!"

The two boys momentarily stopped wrestling in the water, shouting out in agreement with their sister. Mason frowned, trying not to stare into Elizabeth's eyes as she begged. Her sounds of whining and crying eventually weakened his resolve, and he whistled.

"Boys, out of the water. I'll be back, Peter you're in charge while I'm gone"

Elizabeth squealed, spinning around in a circle and just about knocking Mason over as she jumped up at him like a dog. Edward groaned, reluctantly leaving the water and sulking on the riverbed, completely covered in mud. Peter made his way out shortly after Edward, grabbing the smaller otter by the scruff and dragging him away from the river.

"Careful, Elizabeth. You're getting too big to be jumping up at people like that" He scolded as he walked off back to their cottage.

Cillian had entered Mason's room halfway through the younger man's transformation, immediately rushing to his side.

"Mason! What's wrong?" He purred, trying to soothe him.

"I'm quite-" he grunted "alright!"

"What happened, why are you-?"

"Your siblings.. want me to play tag with them-" He gritted his teeth, the comforting sound of Cillians purring dulling the pain to a bearable point,

"They're just waiting for me at the lake"

"You left them there alone!?"

"Its fine, I left Peter in command. They're not to go into the water until I'm back. You're back early"

"Yes well, good thing I came when I did"

Cillian was already undressing himself, Mason finishing his own transformation as Cillians began. Mason glanced over at him and immediately looked away, turning his entire body to face the other direction and squeezing his eyes shut.

"You need to tell me when you're going to be doing that!" Mason yelped.

"You've seen me do this before, Mason, surely by now we're past the point of-"

Mason was already rushing out of the room, awkwardly squeezing through the door frame.

Mason arrived at the lake before Cillian, who was no doubt laughing at Mason's embarrassment. Elizabeth spotted him first, followed by Peter. Edward was still sulking, digging at the mud with his paws and occasionally eating whatever he was finding in it.

Edward eventually looked away from the mud long enough to spot him, quickly making his way over to him with the other children. It was their first time actually being able to look at him when he was an otter properly. He was big, bigger than them but smaller than Cillian. Peter had to stand on his hind legs to even reach the ends of Mason's whiskers. He awkwardly shifted himself around, somewhat confused by the stares.

"You're bigger than I thought" Edward blurted out. Before the other two, or even Mason himself could retort, Cillian burst out of the bushes. Mason yelped, running a few metres away before he realised it was Cillian, the man's siblings already surrounding him and chirping. Mason sighed, flopping onto his side and curling up, prematurely assuming the children had forgotten about him. That was until he felt someone biting his tail, who he flicked at with said tail as he craned his neck to see Cillian.

"What on earth are you doing?"

"You promised them you'd play, come on Mason don't break their little hearts!"

"I didn't make any promises!" He whined, but the trio was already there nudging him, Edward hopping up onto his back and swatting his neck with his tail.

"Ed, off." Cillian warned, his instruction quickly followed. Mason got up, gesturing for Cillian to follow.

"You three, get yourselves in the water. We'll be there shortly, promise" Cillian beamed, nudging them towards the water, where they happily dove beneath the surface.

"Cillian, I'm scared. I don't want to hurt them by playing too rough"

"You're not going to hurt them, Mason. They're tougher than you think."

"Peter and Edward, yes. But not Elizabeth, she's just too young"

"Mason, I've known her since she was born, I promise you she'll be fine. It's just tag, just pretend we're all human, alright?"

Mason stared at him, the equivalent of a frown crossing his face.

"You know what I mean!"

"Bit hard to do that when we look like this"

"Oh shut up!" Cillian laughed, lunging at Mason and tackling him. The two play fought for a bit, Cillian intentionally wearing Mason out.

"Alright alright! I quit, you fat sausage!" Mason huffed, "I'll trust your judgement."

"Attaboy" Cillian grinned, slapping Mason's leg with his tail, chasing him into the water.

They’d play for hours.

I guess that this is as good of a time as any to remind people that WRITERS MAKE THE STORY!!!! I cannot count how many times I see posts praising tv directors for things that are simply not their doing. That iconic line of dialogue? Yeah a screenwriter wrote that. The characters you love? Screenwriter. The places, the plot lines, the developments? Writers.

A show CANNOT happen without a script because a script is necessary for EVERYONE to do their job right. It dictates what set to look for/create, the filming schedule, the casting calls, the costumes and so on. It's not just words on a paper, its the backbone for all of production and it deserves to get recognised as the integral part of tv and film as it is.

Will we get RO POVs of the NSFW scenes? 👀

maybe

I find it funny that Wild, who has basically a couple years ish of full life experience, comes up with the most insane theories for everything

He assumed that the only other explanation to Four being able to split in Four was. That he was quadruplets who'd been hiding this whole time???

Also apparently he believed that his wolf companion Twilight in botw was a diety (and felt very uhh shocked upon finding out that he was not)

Malon made things worse, telling him about her aliens theory

What's even FUNNIER is that every time Wild expresses any sort of confusion at magic stuff that he's never seen before, everyone else in the chain acts like it's crazy for him to be weirded out by it

Honestly maybe Wild's the only one with his head on straight, rather than everyone else who are just like 'it's magic bro' like no he's right this is weird

I appreciate this because it's very considerate of the fact that he woke up with no memories not too long ago, so he doesn't have much experience to explain the stuff that's 'normal' for the chain. Plus the explanations he comes up with are funny.

oh ok so its the usual no-homo bullshit you always hear, good to know.

[cryptidjeepers]

Actually so fucked up that the x files continues to be one of the few shows ive watched where the relationship between the male and female protagonists feel real to me. Like they arent just love interests from the get go. The romantic subtext isnt as important as their platonic relationship most of the time. Mulder is protective of scully because shes his friend. He checks in on her but it never feels like shes being belittled. She feels comfortable speaking her opinion without fearing that mulder will be condescending to her. Idk it just makes me feel safe to watch as a female viewer, knowing there is this respect between the main characters. That these characters actually care about each other. Very refreshing for a 30 year old tv show

this dude is like some sorta champion of light or maybe a herald of darkness or something but im not totally sure

Silly/Clumsy WB boys HCs

I see hcs like this and theyre always fun/make me laugh o(｀ω´ )o

Sakura’s food went down the wrong pipe at a restaurant and when the waiter asked if it was because it was too spicy, he insisted through coughing and tears that that definitely wasn’t the case (he could tell they didnt believe him though)

Tsugeura sometimes lets one rip by accident when he’s exercising. Not even a little fart either, the kind that stops everyone from what they’re doing.

One time Nirei stubbed his toe so hard, he fell and grabbed onto the nearest object. Unfortunately that was the back of Sakura’s pants, making him accidentally moon a few people in class.

Word recall is hard sometimes. So when Choji calls an ambulance a ‘hospital truck’ really what can you do? At least he’s using words. Sometimes he just mimes the shape or action of the thing and insists that you know what he’s talking about. Will draw a picture if he gets frustrated enough, but if it’s something intangible? Well it’s a guessing word game. (Togame is the best at it, but Inugami is on Choji’s wavelength enough that he’s pretty accurate too)

Hiragi calls the first years by the wrong name sometimes, like a mom with too many kids. He’ll yell and say Sugishita when he means Sakura, but he does apologize before yelling again.

Because he’s around older guys a lot, Togame sometime uses really old words or sayings. You haven’t hear the saying “It’s raining cats and dogs” or he’s “bleeding like a stuck pig” in years until you’re stuck under an awning during a passing storm or he comes back from a rough fight, nose still bleeding profusely. Also keeps bag balm/cetaphil, some other really good lotion for calluses and dry skin and just kinda slaps it on whatever shishitoren member he sees who’s hands are cracking, saying that the skin won’t heal as well when they’re older so they better take care of it now.

Umemiya’s got the worst habit of losing, dropping, or sitting on his glasses. He doesn’t realize it until he hears the snap and he’s got them taped up until he can go get them fixed again.

Kaji’s kind of a messy eater. Especially with ice cream or food with sauce on it. Started to get better with checking his face after eating after Hiragi slapped a wet wipe on his face after he devoured a rack of ribs, leaving him looking like he’d cannibalized someone
